The cross-country team has not
lost a dual meet in two years, How-
sever, with the graduation of Tom
Robinson and Dennis Tuttle who ran
in the number one and two positions
the past two years, Coach Keith
Munsey expects next year to be
the team's roughest.

Juntors Bob Flick, John Clark
and Sophomore Ken Darmer, who
were the number three, four, and
five men respectively, along with
frosh standouts Joe Keating and
Grant Downs, appear to be the
Probable first five for next year's
cross-country squad,

Coach Munsey expects the
other returning members from th
year's team to bolster the ha
Tler's chances. These men are Jake
Johnville, Paul Russo, Bob Novak,
and Ed Brown, The coach noted
that Russo, in particular, has great
Potential.

“Paul came out for the team in
mid-season but, even with this
handicap, he was able to produce
some very good times," Munsey

Rustin to Speak Today
On Future of Civil Rights

Bayard Rustin, called
the best civil rights or-
ganizer in the country,”
will speak today at 1:25
p.m, in Page Hall. Invited
by the University Freedom
Council, he will talk on
“The Future of Civil
Rights."*

The Freedom Council plans touse
the topics which Rustin will discuss
as the basis for a panel discussion
of the local and national civil rights
pleture.

Rustin’s organizing abilities have
been much in evidence in the twen-
ty-three years he has @vorked for

vil rights. His most publicizet!
Prore was the New York City soboot
boycott on February 3 of this year.

He coordinated the thousands of
marchers who picketed 300 schools,
The boycott swelled pupll absence
figures by 360,000. It was staged to
protest the Integration policies of
the New York City school board,

Directs Thousands

Rustin was also Deputy Director
of the March on Washington of Aug-
ust 28, 1963 In which two hundred
thousand marchers came from all
‘over the country to demand immed~
fate civil rights legislation.

Rustin began his career in civil
rights In 1941 when he became a
youth organizer for A. Philip Ran
dolph's March on Washington, From
1941 to 1953 he served as Race Re~
tations Secretary of the Fellowship
! Reconciliation, In 1953 he be-
came executive secretary of the
War Resister's League, a pacifist
organization,

For seven years Rustin was a
special assistant to Dr, Martin Lu-
ther King. During this time he or
ganized and coordinated numerous
marches, and drew up the first plan
for the Southern Christian Leader-
ship Conference,

Demonstrations Out of Date

While the bulk of Rustin's work
has been in organizing protestdem~
onstratigg, the passage of the clvil
rights bifF this summer has greatly
reduced the activity and the em=

his area,
jerview printed in the
15, 1964 issue of “New

America’ Rustin indicated that he

recognized the need for & new em=

phasis,
“Poverty exists amidst plenty,"
said Rustin, “‘and the Negroes are

hardest nit but millions of whites
suffer from the obstacles in our
Political and economic structure to
effective remedies.

“It 1s in this context that wo mi
carry out the protest which is in
volved in getting decent jobs,
schools, housing, and the right to
vote, We must, therefore, address
ourselves to the broader perspec-
tive of building and strengthening a
political movement in this country
to solve these problems,

“It is in this light that we must
consider the new phases and the
next steps for the struggle."”

Senate Reduces

Leaders to Meet in Workshop
To Discuss Government Structure

Student Government re-
vision will be developed in
large part tomorrow at the
all-day Government Revi-
sion Workshop inBribach~
er Hall, Representatives of
campus groups will be tak-
ing an active part in the
reshaping of Student Asso-
ciation.

Last April, at the Student Gov-
ernment Conference, the essential
concepts and principls of a re-
structured government were de-
veloped, University expansion has
necessitated a need for a different
structure than that of the presont
Senate.

Art Johnston, President of Stu-
dent Association, explained that the
students and faculty concerned with
the revision since last April have
proceeded as far as possible with
the development of “the structural
Implications” of the concepts and
principles “involved in such a fur
damental reconstruction."

Decentralization
The principles involved in the
workshop are aimed at decentrali-
zing the government as a whole, to
allow the individual student groups
to use their knowledge of the mech-
antes of their own fields in formu-
lating a workable governmental pol-
fey
Johnston stressed the fact that a
nt Government should actually

student concern at every level.’

Appropriation

For UCA Weekend Expenses

by Stove Curti

‘The passage of an amended Unt-
versity Center Association Emer-
gency Bill marked the Wednesday
aight Senate meeting. The bill, as
was originally introduced by Sena-
tor Robert Gable, called for an
emergency appropriation of $1435.

‘This money was to cover the out-
standing bills from Homecoming
and the upcoming expenses for the
Holiday Sing. Senator Al Bader clar-
{fled the bill when tie explained that
$367 would go to the Holiday Sing
and the rest would cover the ov
standing debts,

Closer Communication

Senator Joe Daly said, ‘Ht 1s ob-
vious that this money must he pald,
but has anything been done to pre-
vent a similar occurrence?” To
this Senator Bader explained that
closer communication with Mr.
Richard Locker in the Business
Office has been set up.

Mr, Locker would not honor no
Youclier unless signed by Senator
Bader, President of University Cen-
ter Association, or Cathy Miller,
the treasurer. The situation of hon-
Oring vouchers without this proper
approval caused the dels,

Refer to Committee
Senator Harry Gardner moved to
refer this bill to Finance Commit
tee, President Johnston ruled this
out’ of order because according to
Tules an emergency bill must be
voted upon. Senator Friedman
Polnted out that by voting upon the
Teferral, Senate would be voting on
the emergency bill,
President Johnston retracted his

objection and entertained the Sena-
tor's motion, In discussion of this
ution Senator Tobey asked why
this bill was considered an emer-
gency

Senator Bader replied that there

Sponsorea by Arts Council, Peter

of the American landscape. His
criticism of the “vandals” of the
billboard industry, whom he labels
the prime reason for this degen
eracy, lias gained attention every-
where.

He states that (hey have been
able to deface the countryside be~
cause the “national purpose of the
United States has been to let every-
one make as much money as he
possibly can, If they found of! under
St. Patrick's Cathedral, they would
put a derrick smack 11 the center
of the nave, and nobody would give
the matter @ second thought,!?

Arab Refuge

by Je

Discussing the problems of the
refugee camps in the Middle East,
Dr. Matthew Elbow of the Social
Studies Department spoke before
a crowd of about one hundred
people Wednesday night in Bru~
bacher Lower Lounge. The pro-
gram, entitled “Shalom Means War:
An Arab view of the Israeli Dis
pute,”” was presented by Forum of
Politics,

Elbow spent two years in the
Middle East and was able to meet
people who had been displaced by
the Arab-Israeli dispute and forced
to live in refugee camps, He sald
thefr attitude toward Israel was one
of great fear stemmiing from the
Population explosion and the doc-
trine of Zionism, which preaches
that Israel is the home for all
Jews in the world,

they need the money for the Sing,

People Have No Future’
Elbow said he found that the rest
of the people, who number over a
hundred thousand, had nothing todo.
‘The Egyptian government has tried
to organize them into a military
unit to reconquer Israel.

Elbow polnted out that if nothing
1s done about this situation, it will
lead to a bloody war, He said the
U.N, has tried to use this vast
supply of labor to build factories
and other facilities, but because of
the indifference on the part of the
Arab governments, this has been
virtually impossible.

Elbow called the tragedy of these
million people ‘not the suffering
from no food, because the U, N.
feeds them; not the suffering from
lack of education because the U.N.
educates them; the tragedy is the
people are suffering from lack of

One Full Year

Two days from now will mark a full year from the
date of the assassination of President John F. Ken-
nedy. Much has happened in that one year,

Even in the shock of one President’s death the
American people turned to the new President, and
under his forward-moving leadership put into law
the fundamental principle of the nation,

Less than a month ago the people re-elected that
President as President in his own right, In doing so
they rejected a man and a philosophy which attracted
support based on fear, prejudice, and a narrow con-
cept of social responsibility.

The Warren Commission has issued its report
naming Lee Harvey Oswald unquestionably as Mr.
Kennedy’s assassin, The evidence is all there, but
the answer to the question Why? remains unanswered,
and will forever,

The year began with a violence and senselessness
which shocked the world. Violence has prevented us
from ever ‘gaining any insight into that first act.
Violence and bitter hatred have erupted in the struggle
for civil rights.

Yet the struggle for civil rights will ultimately and
finally be won in the legislatures and the courtrooms.
Reason and intelligence will continue to make the
changes that violence and blind emotion can not pre~
vent or erase,

As members of the university community we are
dedicated to this reason and intelligence. It has never
been more important than it is now forus to be aware
of the need for this dedication,

Although we often feel isolated inour ownuniversity
society and cut off from the rest of the world, we
cannot divorce ourselves from responsibility for the
world we live in,

We were made painfully aware last year, We must
continue to be aware.

The speeches today of

Bayard Rustin and Peter-

Blake demonstrate the problem of inadequate sched-
uling procedures. Both men are speaking at 1:25p.m.,
both are speaking on topics of social significance, and
both speeches are open to the whole University,

At the present time there is no ‘‘central clearing-
house’ for scheduling speeches. When: Page Hall was
the only place available for speeches, it was easy

to make sure that there

were no conflicts. Now,

however, speeches are scheduled for Page, Draper
349, and Brubacher, all by different offices,

We realize that as the University gets bigger it®@

will be necessary to schedule conflicting speeches,
and that audience size will not suffer as a result.
But the University is not that big yet. Itis hard
enough to fill Draper 349, let alone Page Hall when
only one speech is scheduled.

We feel that either the Student Personnel Office

or the

Student Activities Office should take sole

responsibility for scheduling speeches and other
events of interest to the entire University. In this
way the broadest schedule of programs will be avail-

able to the student.

Student Suggests Need For
Publicizing ‘Counterpoint’

To the Editor

Instead of ranting and raving like
Goldwater, Mr, Judd should devote
more of his time and energy to
publicizing ‘Counterpoint ”” to ex-
plaining {ts functions and purposes,
{ts operations, how and where it
is distributed, etc.

Just because “Counterpoint”? ts
@ product of Robert Judd neither
means it 1s desirable to have, nor
of good quality, Mr. Judd will not
shame me into getting a copy by
calling me ‘fearful which means
nothing, or “individualistic, It ts
not the duty of the student body to
support ““Counterpotnt,"" but the duty

‘ounterpoint?’ to support, ine
stimulate the student

He speaks of the apathy and the
aloofness, no, of the “hostility’’ of
the student body to his publication,
this is an indication of either of
two things, or perhaps both

1) extreme egotism, and/or

2) a persecution complex com-=n

to a paranole,

‘The student body, in a sense, does
Robert Judd a favor when \t reads
“Counterpoint,” mainly because it
has neither knowledge of the type of
films he plans to make, or their
Purpose, nor whether or not these
films will benefit the student body
as a whole.

Perhaps {f these facts had been
made known first, or were made
known, we might ‘be inclined not
only to support Counterpoint"? by
charity, but by submitting contri-
butions as students do in the case
of ‘suppression,’

Indeed, the tone of Mr, Judd’s
statements makes me wonder
whether he ts more interested in
performing services for.the student

State Looms as University
fn Programs and Activities

To the Editor

For the relatively few people who
have chosen to recognize it, State
has proven this semester that it
can be a ‘“university” in a real
sense.

In the programs and activities
that have been presented by var-
fous groups on campus, we have
seen some of that ‘excellence’?
we hear so much about, and see
80 Little of,

‘The first encouraging sign was
the Renaissance Symposium. This
series of six lectures maintained a
continuity throughout with the re~
sult that the students were given
@ Renaissance ‘study in depth,”

What was particularly commend-
able was the carry-over of Ren-
aissance study into other areas,
Many professors in various de-
partments required at least some
of the lectures and continued dis-
cussions in class,

As part of the program, displays
of Durer prints and Renaissance
books were set up in Draper Hall.

‘The printing of ‘Counterpoint?
was another step forward, Unlike
some of the otter publications on
campus, “Counterpoint” refrained
from petty digs at campus organl~
zations and personalities, kept the
tone of its writing high and has
chosen refreshing and intelligent
subjects for its interviews.

One of the most promising addi-
tions to the campus is the Golden
Eye, a makeshift coffeehouse in the
basement of the Madison Avenue
Presbyterian Church, Non-sectar-
lan, the group has filled the press
Ing need for an informal atmosphere
for faculty-student discussions,

Its last program included a le
ture and discussion led by a Jesult
Priest. Its next program will feature
faculty roadings from Sayre’s “Doc
tor Faustus,”

The most recent achievement on
campus was the State University
Pheatre production of Doctor
Faustus! at All-Saiuts Cathedral,
Originally designed as part of the
Symposium, this unfurgettable pre-
sentation proved the real climax
of the program,

The choice of Marlowe's drama
was in keeping with the consistently
high quality of theatre that Dr,
Burtan's group has offered the unt-
v

ty

Particularly notable wore the per
formances given by Howard Miller
‘in his role of the egotistical Doctor
and Daniel Labelle as the brooding
devil Mephistophilis, The latter did
& surprising jobof stealing the show,

However, the excellence of oppor=
tunity has not provoked an excel
Jence of response, With the possible
exception of *Faustus"’ none of these

activities has received the recog ®
ton it deserves.

One gets the distinct impression
that had not the Renaissance lec-
tures received such strong support
from the faculty in and out of class,
the audience would have been sub-
stantially reduced. Further, rel
tively few students took advanta
of the question and answer periuls
that followed,

“Counterpoint” editor, Robert
Judd has lamented the lack of re-
sponse his publication has received.
(The one possible justification liere
might be that for some reason

Prof Returns from Middle East;
Taught History in Lebanon, Turkey

by Horold Lynne

‘It {s possible to teach American
history or European history without
having traveled to these areas; how-
ever, in order tobe qualifiedto teach
Middle Eastern history, f feel that
one must visit the Middle East,”
commented Dr. Matthew H. Elbow,
who has Just recently returned to
State's faculty after two years in
the Middle East,

Dr. Elbow -axplained, “Every
country’s problems are so differ-
ent. It is very difficult togeneralize
about anything between nations or
even within any particular nation.”

In 1962-69, his sabbatical year,

@ be was a visiting-protessor of his
tory at the Beirut College for Wo
men in Lebanon. He arranged for
tis teaching position througit the
United States Presbyterian Church,
to which the Beirut College for Wo-
men is related,

In March 19v3, while teaching at
the College for Women, Dr. Elbow
was notified that he had been awarded
2 Fullbright grant to teach at Robert
College in Istanbul, Turkey."I had
originally planned to return home af-
ter my year in Beirut; when I found
that wiih the Fulbright 1 would be
able’to stay in the Middle East for
another year, I was elated,” Dr,
Elbow sald,

Americon Schools

@ both the Beirut College for Wo-
men and Robert College are Ameri-
can institutions, Strangely enough,
these schools Are chartered under
the Board of Regents of the State of
New York. It was necessary for
these American schools abroad to
be accredited by some educational
organization in the United States,
and New York was chogen to handle
the matter,

At these Middle Eastern colleges
virtually all the courses are taught
in English, For those students who
do not have a backgroundin English,
these institutions have set up pre-
Paratory schools which administer
an intensive English program.

Dr. Elbow discovered tht, 1

@ both Lebanon and Turkey, there ts
considerable criticism -of these
American colleges for being cul-
turally imperialistic. Yet, there ts
also a tremendous demand to gain
admission into these schools.

Religious Toleration

To further discuss ats experi-
ences in Lebanon and Turkey, Dr.
Elbow noted, it 1s necessary to
handle each country separately.

There s toleration of many di-
vergent religious sects. Each church
supports {ts own schools; thus has

Dr. Matthew H. Elbow is a
professor of history at Albany
State. He received his B.A.,
M.A. and Ph.D. from Columbia
University. He has done post-
doctoral work at the Sorbonne
and at the Genevo Graduate
Institute of International Af-
fairs. In 1954, he received o
Ford Fellowship to study
Middle Egstern history at
Harvard University.

arisen a complex system of private,
church-affiliated schools.

Lebanese public schools are con=
sidered among the best public
sclols in the Middle East. As a
result of {ts fine educational possi-

ules, Lebanon has over fifty per
cent literacy, With the exception of
Israel, this is the highest literacy
rate in the Middle East,

“1 was very lucky to have been
able to secure a teaching position
at the Beirut College for Women
because that is an ideal Lebanese
school for one who wishes to fa
miliarize himself with the variety
of religions {n Lebanon," Dr. Elbow
said,

The religious composition of the
Beirut College for Women clearly
reflects the overall religious di-
visions of Lebanon, The college,
as is Lebanon, is half Moslem and
half Christian

‘The major Moslem sulivisions
are the Sunnite, the Shiite, and the
Druze, The main Christian sect is
the Maronite, The Maronite Church
is associated with the Roman Cath-
olic Church; however, there are
certain salient deviations from Ro-
man Catholic doctrine. Services are
held in Arabic, priests can marry;
and the Pope, although he is recog-
nized, 1s not’ considered as {mpor~
tant as the national patriarch. The
other significant Christian group ts
the Greek Orthodox Church,

Policy Criticisms
“Dr. Elbow said, “li my year
at the Beirut College for Women 1
ied with two major

Egypt and endorsement and support

The Lebanese Christfans with
whom Dr. Elbow came 1n contact
(ried to Linpress most upon hin, as

fear uf @ United Arab state was to

Ia united Aral: state were formed,
the Christlans in Lebanon would be~

come a small minority, This they
are certain, would result in severe
religious persecution. Since Nasser
would be the key figure in a united
Arab stateythe Maronites are very
displeased with the United States
for giving Egypt so much foreign
ald.

Another sore point in American-
Lebanese relations revolves around
the partition of Palestine in 1948,
Lebanon violently opposed the Unt-
ted Nations’ proposals for the par-
tition of Palestine and the estab-
lishment of the state of Israel, The
United States supported the plan for
Partition and was the first nation
to officially recognize Israel.

This was a severe diplomatic,
blow to Lebanon (and the other Arab
nations) for which the United States
has ever been forgiven.

In Defense of the USA

At Robert Colige in Istanbul, Tur-
key, Dr, Elbow found himself in a
Position where, as he stated, “not
only did I have to teach, but'l also
had to defend the United States.”?
His tenure at Robert College began
immediately after the summer of
1963, when the civil rights issue in
America hud reached a fever pitch,

“My students were always asking
about racial strife in America, The
Turkish newspapers played it up;
Negro demonstrations were front
Page material,"” Dr. Elbow said,

iis students could not understand
how a single state, suchas Mississi-
ppl or Alabama, could claim that the
federal government did not have the
ight to enforce civil rights legisla-
on, “I tried to explain the federal
system to them — that states had
the prerogative to challenge the
sonstitutionality vf the federal gov-
ernment’s actions,” Dr. Elbow sald,

Turkey has never had very friend-
ly relations with Russia, Dr. Elbow
was aware of thts, but he had not
expected the degree of anti-com=
munist sentiment which he dis-
covered exisis in Turkey. “Turkey
{s on the border of Russia and, when-
ever something goes wrong, the
people's first reaction is that It must
he a communist plot,

When President Kennedy was as-
sassinated, Dr. Elbow's students
hnmediately assumed that behind
such a horrendous event only the
communists could be,

Widespread Illiteracy
During his year in Turkey he
found that one of the greatest prob-
lems facing the Turkish govern-
ment is that of introducing wide-
spread educational reforms, More

Frightoning Experience

‘The most frightening experience
{n his travels occurred in the spring
of 1963 in Jordanian Jerusalem. He
was staying at a convent situated
‘on the Via Dolorosa, a road over
which Christ supposedly walked on
the way to Calvary.

Dr. Elbow recounts, “We had
heard that there were some mobs
of teenagers attempting a revolt
against the government. Suddenly
our fears were confirmed by the
sighting of about fifty teenagers
approaching the convent, Wo locked
ourselves in for what turned out to
be two days of confiement,

“At one polnt the mob tried to
break into the convent, but we were
able to keep them from getting in,
Soon the government sent In troops
to protect the convent.

“We later discovered that the mob
hhad tried to break into the convent
because it was believed that a couple
of their friends were being held
there, T don’t know what would have
happened if they tad broken in,

harmed; however, I'm sure that ir»

done to the convent, ‘The convent
was built over Roman ruins and tt
contains many remnants which date

“Besides this one incident, Tmust
ay that wherever we traveled in
the Middle East, the people were
very hospitable. I thoroughly enjoyed
the two years, as did my whole
family, and T hope to return to t!
Middle East in the near future,"

‘about the purpose of the Symposium.
She was pleased as a whole with the
presentation, saying that the pro~
gram brought different fields into a
general framework,

Question Periods Fruitful

Wallace also felt that the questior
periods which were held the day
after each lecture were very fruit
ful for those who attended,

“The students asked very pene~
trating questions,” she said.

Students who served on the com-
mittee also praised the overall pre~
sentation, Milton G, Willlams, who
is president of the Art Council, felt
that the symposium challenged the
students to remold many thoughts.

‘Williams commented: “I can see
no reason why symposiums onother
broad subjects can't be offered tothe
student body in the ensuing years,

his year’s Renaissance Symposium
illustrates what can be done with
good planning to broaden the intel~
Jectual activities on this campus.’

Robert Nottke, another student
member of the committee, spoke of
the speakers themselves, He sald,
“Perhaps the major and most fr
quent criticism is that the lectures.
were too difficult for the novice to
understand. For some this may be
grounds for saying that a symposium

“Every effort should be made to
continue the symposium for the
benefit of the University community,
because exposure to oral intellect
4s the sine qua non for the under-
standing of it.’

‘Metatheatre’

by Alex Delfini

Lionel Abel’s “Metatheatre”’ at-
temps to do two things. First to
demonstrate why it is difficult, if
not Impossible, for modern writers
to produce tragic drama, and sec-
ond, to outline the basic elements
of a comparable form of drama
which he calls ‘‘metatheatr

‘The following discussion will fo-
cus on the first aspect of Abel's
book, that is, his theory of tragedy.

‘According to Abel, tragedy oc-
curs when the protagonist, attains
“daemonic” or divine stature as a
consequence of his suffering through
punishment and destruction,

‘The tragic hero is a man who
has been destroyed because he has
transgressed beyond the bounds of
the human. As Abel explains, the

he can avoid his fate and can un-
cover the truth about himself in
spite of the warnings of the prophet
of the gods.

Oedipus in effect acts as if he
were invulnerable, or divine.

Although Oedipus is struck down
At the end of the play, in Sophocles?
‘second part of the trilogy, “Oedi-
pus at Colonus,” the fallen king
has been granted divinity by the
gods, and two states are vying for
his sacred body when he dies,

Weok Explanation
Abel's explanation of the tragic
vision ts very weak. First, henever

offers an adequate explanation of

the term ‘daemonic."" One may
question whether the tragic pro-
tagonist becomes ‘'daemonic"’ pure=
ly In the minds of the spectators,

tragic protagonist has the audacity jor whether he performs some act

(ubris) to act as If he were divine,

In doing so, he ts ultimately
struck down by the powers he has
violated, but, paradoxically, these
‘same powers grant him at the close
of the drama the-very stature or
divinity that he originally claimed,

Ocdipus Rex
Abel cites Oedipus Rex as an
example of such a “‘daemonic’” fig-
ure, Oedipus ts destroyed because
he has the audacity to believe that

‘or makes certain statements which
necessarily reveal his divinity, *

From the example of Oedipus
given above, it would seem that the
latter interpretation is more cor-
ect, but Abel also applies the con=
cept of divinity to the character of
Macbeth, and this must inevitably
involve @ somewhat different use
of the term,

There is also a glaring fallacy
in Abel’s use of Oedipus as an
example of the daemonic charac-

Shakespeare, Strauss, and Label

Summer 1964 saw two anniver-
saries: the birth of Shakespeare

Gence of a new record label still
causing much excitement.

Why read Shakespeare when all
the dramas can be heard in unique

Richard Burton into a flesh and

problem, mellows slightly, then
plunges into an overly mature so-

Alfred Drake (Claudius), Hume Ci

Necessary Exclusions

‘The whole notion that the tragic
hero is a divine figure is rather
objectionable, It necessarily ex~
cludes much that has traditionally
been considered tragic drama, e.g.,
Lear, Hamlet, Othello, and many
17th century French dramas,

The second objection to Abel's
theory is that he has overlooked
the possibility of tragedy being not
50 muctf the destruction of a man
who seeks to transcend the human,
but rather, the struggle of a human
to achleve all that he can (consistent
with his own values) in a universe
that 1s essentially opposed to those
values,

Thus Oedipus seeks to avoid a
fate which he finds morally repug-
nant, He brings about his “downfall
by pushing to the limits the dictates
of his consctence, a conscience that
demands that the truth be known re-
Bardless of the consequences.

‘Thus, the tragic hero, rather than
becoming more than fuman, be-

comes as ideally human as possible,
His nobility Mes in his affirmation
of the human, the demand for con
sistency, in opposition to an allen
cosmological scheme.

Recent Print Sale Reveals Confusion;
Graphic Arts ShowGreat Diversity ©

by M. Gilbert Willioms

Though the 327 Gallery may not
have had much luck selling original
graphics, last Friday's sale spon-
sored by the Art Council showed
that there 1s considerable interest
in them at Albany State, even if this

pressed by the faculty.

Reading ““Counterpoint’s"* (Vol. 1,

Liddie, who helped found the now-
eclipsed 327 Galler: , was of great
interest, She noted a fact not all so
apparent to me as it became at last
Friday's successful sale, ‘People
just don’t understand print-mak-
ing,’ she said,

Indeed they don't, It may be ex-
pected that few people really know
the masters of the print, but I foe!
ita gross shame that far too few
know the diverse forms of print-
making. Because I saw the lack of
understanding Mrs. Liddle has wit-
nessed, I felt the need to devote
this column to a series of definj-

and that I would point out some of
the significant graphic artists who
are well worth studying and col-

lecting.

In an exclusive interview to the ASP and WSUA last

{Bucs ‘ranging from the ultimate. goal of the Negro*

protection ta the Negro in the South,

He commented on the race riots thls summer,
(praised the Supreme Court for maintaining the balance
1B between justice and order, and advised the University

Freedom Council as to what direction it should take.

In discussing the ultimate’ goal of the Negro mov

{ the Constitution, That means, therefore, that he must
be able to buy a home and live where he wants,

F.B.1. Protection Inadequate

Rustin expressed the opinion that the F.B.I. has
been lax in its protection of the constitutional rights
f the Southern Negro. “I think that the F.B.I. pro-
{tection in the South has been most inadequate, The

F.B.L has not apprehended criminals; thirty-seven
churches have been bombed and only in one case
have they brought anyone to book,

“This we say 1s inadequate and that if it is impos- children

done, then a younger man should take his place. I

Wants Hoover Replaced

Rustin declined to comment on whether or not he
felt that J, Edgar Hopver had tried to utilize the full
powers of the F.B.I. to investigate crimes against
Negroes in the South, “I cannot say whether Mr.
Hoover has tried because this would be very unfair
for me. I cannot say to what degree he has tried,
There is an objective point at which I simply have
to say that job has not been done, and someone else
‘ought now to come and try it,”” Rustin said,

‘When asked to evaluate the ffects of the race riots
this summer, Rustin commented, “Rloting is seldom
