There is one "New Left" organization currently operating in the State of Nevada. That organization is a new Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) chapter which is in the process of being formed at the University of Nevada (Uof N), Reno, Nevada. There are no key activists in the Las.Vegas Division. Inasmuch as "New Left" organizations in the Las Vegas Division are comparatively new, no counterintelligence action is being recommended in this communication. Another factor being taken into consideration is that already announced plans by the Nevada SDS to be dormant during the Summer months, and them to resume full activity during the Fall term at the University.

Consideration will be given to feeding certain_infor- mation, depending on the debate topic, to the YAF in an effort to help expose the SDS. In this same connection, consideration will be given the organization of campus groups with the help of strategic personnel, whose soul purpose would be to expose, disrupt, or otherwise neutralize the "New Left" movement.

R/S PSI has advised the organization at the University of Nevada, although holding token meetings, will be dormant during the summer months but will become active during the fall term of 1968. Plans are being made to, through the use of the already existing source, introduce "clean" students into the organization to increase the coverage at the University. When membership information is known, a review will be made of the individuals involved and possible sources will be evaluated. 70 Based on the extreme conservative makeup of the student bodies and the faculty members of the University of Nevada and Nevada Southern University, the only two colleges in Nevada, the potential for violence seems fairly remote. It is noted, however, there is a nucleus of New Left already organized at the University of Nevada, and a small unorganized group at Nevada Southern University who, either by design or by coincidence, follow the tenets of the New Left. Where this situation exists the potential for violence exists. REC-20 700-449698-65- The present State of Nevada administration has made it known that violence on the campuses will not be tolerated.

A chapter of the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) was organized at the University of Nevada, Reno, Nevada, at a meeting held in Reno on April 4, 1968. On June 6, 1968, a meeting of the group was held and the name of the organization was changed to Nevadans for Democratic Action (NDA). It was stated the name change was necessary because of the nation-wide investigation of Students for a Democratic Society and because of hostility on the part of the University administration. From April 4, 1968, to the present time, approximately twenty-five students and faculty members have attended meetings of the organization. advised that the main purpose of the group would be to provide an effective voice for liberal students in the areas of campus politics and national issues. He said the Students for a Democratic Society was needed because of great political apathy of University of Nevada students and because of a lack of organization among the leftist thinking students. On June 6, 1968, [REDACTED] stated that the change of the name of the organization will have no affect on the purposes and plans of the organization. 2.

There is an SDS Chapter at the U of N, Reno, Nevada It still has not taken part in any action since the beginning of the 1968 Fall Term. The group is currently undergoing a change in both leadership and name; however, there is no doubt it will continue to be affiliated with the National SDS. Two areas under consideration by the SDS group for concentration are (1) to discredit the Dean of Students and force his resignation, and (2) to exploit the Negro student housing discrimination situation alleged to be in Reno. Plans are currently being formulated to utilize the services of the CS in negating both of these goals of the SDS and at the same time discredit the U of N group.
