On when the full-scale troop commitment began
(Editor's Note: Reprinted
from Sunday June 20 New
York Times)
77ie New York Times was in
federal court yesterday for a
hearing to determine whether
they will be allowed to
continue printing reports of
classified Pentagon papers on
the Vietnam War.
In the days since the U S.
Circuit Court of Appeals issued
a retraining order stopping Tile
Times from printing further
reports on the papers, two
other newspapers have begun
publishing the report They are
the Washington Post and Ttie
Boston Globe.
The Times printed three
installments of a series based
on the Pentagon's 47-vohime
study of the origins and
escalation of the Vietnam war,
but the series was halted last
week by the restraining order
pending the outcome of the
government suit
On June 19, U.S. District
Court Judge Murray I. Gurfein
turned down the government's
request for a preliminary
injunction barring Vie Times
from publishing further articles
based on the classified
documents but the government
appealed to the circuit court.
In making the ruling Gurfein
said This Court does not,
doubt the right of the
government to injunctive relief
against a newspaper that is
about to publish information
or document vital to current
national security but it does
not find that to be the case
here . .
A cantankerous press,
an obstinate press, a ubiquitous
press must be suffered by those
in authority in order to
preserve the even greater values
of freedom of expression and
the right of the people to
know .
In the case involving Vie
Washington Post, VS. District
Judge Gerhard A Gesell ruled
Monday that the newspaper
could go ahead with its series
based on the same Pentagon
study but the appeals court
quickly ordered a stay.
Tlte Post began publication
of the study where Vie Times
left off and was halted by the
restraining order after two
installments. On Tuesday The
Boston Globe printed new
portions of that study.
Attorney General John N.
Mitchell said Tuesday that he
will seek a court order to halt
the Boston Globe from
publishing more of the papers.
Meanwhile. Defense
Secretary Melvin R Laird
directed the Pentagon to
declassify as much of the
contents of the papers as it
feels is possible
Laird said the
declassification would not
affect possible criminal
prosecution of those
responsible for making the
papers available to the press.
The Pentagon study, entitled
History of U.S.
Decision-Making on Vietnam
Policy traces the nation's
involvement in Indochina from
the end of World Wai II to
1967. It was ordered by former
Secretary of Defense Robert
McNamara
The Times obtained copies
ol both that study and anothe.
document, a summary of "The
Command and Control Study
of the Tonkin Gulf Incident
and began publishing articles
and excerpts June 13.
The Times said that it
decided to do so "with the
conviction that it was in the
interest of the people of the
United States that they be
informed and that it was the
fundamental responsibility of
the press to make such
information available "
In its series. The Times said
the documents prove that the
United States conducted
clandestine warfare against
North Vietnam prior to the
1964 Tonkin Gulf incident,
that the Johnson
administration decided to
bomb North Vietnam before
the 1964 presidential election
and that president Johnson
decided early in 1965 to
covertly use Amencan ground
troops in offense operations.
In obtaining the restraining
order against The Times, the
government argued that further
publication "would prejudice
the defense interests of the
United States and result in
irreparable injury to the
national defense
Attorney General Mitchell
said in Philadelphia Monday
night that it is essential that
the American public get full
information on the war. but
that the information should be
made public only "at the
appropriate time and in the
appropriate circumstances
Mitchell denied that the
government challenges to The
Times and The Post were taken
for political reasons or to
protect any individual.
These papers cover
basically the activities of the
Kennedy and Johnson
administrations and do not
relate to this administration
he said in response to questions
from newsmen.

RALEIGH f.AP) JUNE 14 A 21-year-old antiwar activist
from Chapel Hill says he will appear before a federal grand jury
investigating the bombing of the U.S. Capitol but will refuse to
cooperate.
Michael Tola received a summons Friday to appear before the
grand jury in Detroit at 9 a.m. Tuesday about the March
bombing
Tola told newsmen he was in Washington during the week
before the incident, but he denied any pa in bombing the
Capitol He said he went to Washington to wurk on a newspaper

He said he met Leslie Bacon, who was taken to Seattle. Wash
to be questioned by another grand jury about the bombing Tola,
Miss Bacon and others who were engaged in publicity work for
the May Day demonstrations roomed in the same house in
Washington.
Tola said he left Washington with several other people the
morning the capital was bombed He said their car was followed
by unmarked cars and later the group was surrounded in
Pennsylvania by 14 cars containing 30 policemen. Tola said police
held his party "at gunpoint" for two hours while an Army bomb
Aquad checked their car for explosives but found none.
"We have been harassed every since Tola said. "The FBI has
been to my family and my friends asking questk ns about where I
was when the capttol was bombed
He added. "1 didn'i do the capitol bombing, but I really dug it.
It was an act of love, an act carried out by the Weather
Underground to show their love for the Indochinese and to freak
out the warmongers and bring a smile and a wink to the kids who
hate this government
Tola, a Raleigh native who dropped out of the Universm ol

Students face deflation problem
By SHERRY BUCHANAN
Sta" Wnter
Despite some recent
monetary problems, plans are
continuing for 38 students to
attend Haul Steineck, the new
ECU campus in Bonn,
Germany, when it opens this
fall.
A change has been made in
the extension's faculty, and an
international money dilemma
will cause problems for the
travelers.
"The deflation of the
German mark as compared to
the American dollar is going to
make the biggest difference
said Dr Robeit Williams,
provost "We have made all of
our contracts in German
currency
Williams expressed his
concern but said he felt the
currency would stabilize
somewhat and things would
work out fine.
ECU is renting Haus
Steinneck for the academic
year '71-72 from a private
foundation in Germany. It has
been used previously as a
conference center for
international meetings and was
once the home of a German
countess. "We're in a pretty
swank neighborhood said
Williams.
Williams said several changes
have been made in the grounds
and such of the house. New
walkways and paths have been
built in front of the house,
extending down to the Rhine,
which passes directly in Iront
of Haus Steinneck. New
plumbing and more shower
facilities had also been added
when Williams and Dr Hans
Indorf went to Germany last
February. Indorf will live in
residence all year.
One change has occurred in
the faculty line-up for the
Bonn campus. Dr John Kozy
Jr Philosophy Department
head, will not he going, but Dr.
William Troutman will take his
place Troutman will be in
lesidence dining the winter
quarter
"All the faculty members
are specialists in then fields
said Williams, "and areas have
been selected lot study so that
the students will complete
enough houis for the European
Cognate Minor "The students
will take a total of 45 hours in
block onuses to ,i, quire this
minor Each subject is geared
to European lepectt, with
particular emphasis on
Germany or other surrondmg
countries. Clyde Hiss o( the
School of Music will have a
special interest in Bonn since it
was the birth place of
Beethoven and is a great opera
center.
Another dilemma lacing the
students will be the new "value
added tax This a general
consumers tax levied upon the
German people. The courts
have recently luled that Haus
Steineck will come under this
new tax. and it may be an
important factor m the future
COM of the program.
"There are quite a lot of
things involved with the future
plans of this program said
Williams, not only the interest
of the ECU students, but the
local situations in Germany
and all over Europe are
important, as well as the
monetary problems "
The project has received
much needed help from the
German government and the
German Student Union, the
director said
If the program goes well.
some time during the year a
chartered flight might be
possible for the parents and
friends of the students in
Bonn "We would like to see
such a flight go over for a short
visit with the students said
Williams "and we'd try to get
a special rate for them
If all continues to proceed
smoothly, the students will
leave for Germany on

that nursing today is still

Larry Little, N.C Black Panther talks of changes
By WHITNEY HADDEN
Managing I dltor
Dressed in light green, striped slacks, a pale
?ue shirt and a long collai. and a red nylong
find-breaker, Larry Uttk gives the appearance
or? ol a college basketball player than of a
evolutionary.
He is young, in his early twenties, and talks
?pidly, with a soft-spoken intensity
Larry is the head of the Black Panther Party
f) North Carolina
In a recent interview, Fountainhead talked
vith Little on changes in the philosophy of the
Inthers during the past year or two and the
wirk ol the Panthers in North Carolina:
You are chairman nf the Black forth Paity
?f North Carolina?
No, I'm just the coordinator of the Black
Panther Party primarily in North Carolina.
We don't have a chairman as such. We're not
joing on such an organized structure anymore.
You see. we used to have deputy chairman,
deputy minister of defense, deputy minister of
information, and all of that. But now,
primarily, we have a co-ordinator, section
leaders, communications secretary, and so on.
I'm not necessarily the leader: the party is
&ased on the principles of
democratic-centralism And, so I'm just a
member of the central staff. The party is not as
hierarchically structured as it once was.
How would you describe the philosophy of
the Black Panther Party?
Well, most of the principles and goals of the
party are contained in the parly's 10-point
platform.
We are dialectical materialists
Marxists-Leninists. I guess the best description
is revolutionary intcr-communalists.
What is the difference between an
internationalist and an inter-communalist?
We would use the term inter-communalist to
express our belief that there no longer are any
nations in the world today.
You see. the criteria for being a nation are
that you must control your geographical
boundaries completely and you must control
your political, economic, and educational
institutions within those boundaries.
We look at these criteria and we see that we
have no nations today. The United States is a
world empire, and the rest of the world are
oppressed communities except for what we
call liberated tenitories such as the People's
Republic of China, Cuba, and the Democratic
People's Republic of Korea
In our philosophy of revolutionary
inter-communalism, we feel that we, the
oppressed peoples of the world, face a common
enemy.
The people who control the troops that
murdered people in My Lai are the same people
who control the troops who murdered people
at Jackson State, Kent State, and Detroit. And
these people are the minority ruling class of
America.
No fascist government could exist in the
world today without some kind of support
from the U.S. government.
It seems that the Panthers have changed
quite a bit over the past few years. There is not
very much in the raps' shout guns and armed
struggle. What is your opinion of bombing and
terrorist tactic?
No act is revolutionary in itself. An act is
revolutionary only if it organizes and helps to
raise the consciousness of the oppressed
community If the people don't understand an
action and support it, it is not revolutionary.
We are not against what you call terrorist
tactics in themselves, but feel that they are not
helpful at this time and are really
counter-revolutionary.
What do you feel about the Weathermen, or
Weather People, and their tactics?
We recognize what the Weathermen are all
about, and we appreciate their position, you
see. but we feel that at this time the level of
consciousness of the people is not at a line
where they can accept such things as bombings
and what you might call acts of terrorism.
That energy should be geared towards
organizing and establishing a base among the
community. We feel that such activity as this is
premature and counterproductive; we don't feel
we can organize the masses this way.
We believe tiiat revolution is a process,
ABC, and that you have to take the
community with you step by step.
Didn't the party support this type of activity
at one time?
This is what we were dealing with at one
time and we realize now where we were wrong
because, you see, in that we used to relate to
armed struggle all the time and we were too far
ahead of the people.
W" divorced ourselves from the people in this
way and left ourselves wide open for the worst
kind of treatment.
What would you say is the main reason that
the Panthers didn't go underground when the
Weathermen organization did? It seems that the
Panthers have always invited attack by
operating so openly.
We feel that the Weathermen went
underground too early. That you should wait
until you're really pushed underground
We've always worked in the open more or
less, and attempted to establish a base among
the people, you see, but the Weathermen didn't
really give themselves time to set up any real
organization or support.
I think they've begun to realize this now, and
have criticized themselves for going
underground without any organized structure
to repudiate what the establishment has laid
down on them all the misconceptions and lies
that were printed about them; and like I said,
the people really were not at a level where they
could support such activities.
Fred Hampton used to say that when you go
underground all you can organize is ground
hogs.
The Panthers have always claimed to be a
"vanguard" party. What do you mean by this,
or in what way has this concept changed with
the changes in philosophy we've been
discussing?
At one time we were a "revolutionary
cultus" organization, you see, and not a real
vanguard party.
We didn't realize at first that in relating to
armed struggle all the tune and other things
like using so much profanity in the party paper
and all that we divorced ourselves from the
people
Now we've realized that and we've learned
that you have to stay with the people and try
to raise their level ol consciousness
A real vanguard party is the spearhead ol a
mass movement, and we know thai you have to
meet the people on their own level, and rJ you
get too far ahead of them, you're noi a real
vanguard party because you won't have the
support of a mass movement.
So we realize where we were wrong in that
you see. and now we want to go back into the
community and try to meet their needs and
raise their political consciousness
We feel that if we can really meet the needs
of the people, then they will look to us for
political guidance, also
Is this why the Panthers have begun working
with churches again? it is my understanding
that there has been some effort in this
direction.
Right, exactly You see, we've gone back
into the churches because we recognize that's
where our people are We recognize we were
very arrogant, you see, and we said "dump the
churches" and all like thai
Because we were a "revolutionary culrus" at
one time, and we had "revolutionary
concepts" about things: but the people were
not at a level where they c ild understand and
accept every thing the Black Panther Party said
and did.
There's an article in the paper by an
Episcopal Priest from Oakland (Father Larl A.
Neil, The Black Panther Intercommuml Sews
Service, May 15. 1971), and he shows how the
black church historically has been involved in
survival programs like the underground railroad
and how it can and should relate to the
Panther's survival program today
And so, you see. we made this mistake in not
trying to relate to the churches and not trying
to get the churches to relate to our survival
program, and we realize this now That is where
our people are. and that is where we should be
So we have gone back to the churches, we're
trying to organize in the churches, trying to
organize among the youth. The members of the
party are attending church, and trying to get
back in there to relate to the people and to
relate the churches to the survival program
feeding the hungry, visiting those in prison,
clothing the needy, and so on
Then working on specific issues helps to raise
political awareness within the community? Or
are you just dealing in something like public
relations?
No, not at all like that We are open to all the
programs ol the community. By helping the
people to meet specific needs we can get them
to sec beyond these specific issues, we can show
them how these specific issues relate to their
higher interests, the broader problem
In this way we can help them to see the real
nature ol the problem and get them to work
toward the complete and total freedom, and
economic liberation ot all oppressed peoples
The number one thing is to see that we can't
be up there talking about "death to the pigs"
all the time and relating to aimed struggle in
ihis way when there's a child over there with
no clothes on. We've got to clothe that child
first, and that's what we'ie trying to deal with
now
That's what our survival program is all about
to relate to the needs of the community.
I Ins is the mam change m the Black Panther
Paiiy I think, in recognizing this mistake we
made.and now we are trying to meet the needs
of ihe people and raise their level ot
consciousness
I want to discuss your "survival program"
and the activities that your organization is
engaging in at this time, but before we get into
that, I would like to ask you about drugs This
seems to be a very pressing concern to many
people today, and I know that it is a growing
problem in the black community The Black
Panther Party has always been against drugs,
hasn't it?
Yes. we've always said that "dope plus
capitalism equals genocide We are opposed to
the use of drugs for this reason
In your twenty-six general rules you state
that no party member should have any drugs in
his possession when doing party work or be
under the influence of drugs while working
Does this indicate that you are not completely
opposed to members of the party using drugs?
You nust understand that those rules
include any kind of drugs alcohol, marijuana,
and harder drugs like LSD and heroin We can
not tell our members not to drink or do these
other things, but we definitely are opposed to
them being under any kind of drug influence in
connection with the party and party work

has been instrumental in
delivering this conception from
the womb into reality.
When Wooles came to ECU
last June from the Medical
College of Virginia, he didn't
realize how difficult this
fatherhood could be.
He and six colleagues
arrived to plan and develop a
medical school. With a few
pieces of legislation and
app opriation funds under the
belt. Wooles and faculty were
told to father the School.
Wooles remembers, "When I
look back, there was really
very little happening when we
got here " Wooles' office was
initially a science laboratory
"When we first moved in he
recalls, "There was no desk
Dr. Hayek (chairman of
admissions) and I had to stand
up and write on the counter
tops
Prom these meager
beginnings, Wooles says, "we
went from nothing (when it
sometimes looked as if this
'nothing' would be beaten
down) to the birth of a
one-year school and the
promise of a degree-granting i

is pioud of his baby. The
.nggest sense of accomplish-
ment is in having created
something, he says.
Wooles will be the first to
tell you that creativity doesn't
always come easily. "We put
the School together in the face
of opposition we never
dreamed of he explains,
leaning back in his chair
thoughtfully.
Indeed, the problems m
creating a medical school were
plentiful. The initial drive was
for the development of a
two-year school. This plan.
Wooles explains, received
opposition from every angle.
Complaints from UNC were
a large obstacle, Wooles says.
"They felt that they could
provide medical education for
the state, and that ECU would
only be a financial threat he
adds.
Coupled with this was the
fad thai the two-year school is
on its way out, he adds. "A
recent Carnegie Commission
Report says that no new
two-year schools should be
established Wooles explains
"We were trying to revive it
while it was being lowered into
ihe grave
Wooles was disappointed
that the Board of Higher
Education which rejected the
plan was made of only a j
22-man citizen's group. There
were no medical educators on
the Board. Advisory
subcommittees are needed to
help in such decisions, he feels.
But the joys have
outweighed the disappoint-
ments in the first year here.
"Getting to know the great
people of eastern North
Carolina and being assured of
their constant support has been
one of my most enjoyable
experiences he says.
And. Wooles has enjoyed his
experiences in Raleigh "I've

Drugs and oppression face Blacks
FRESHMEN MEET IN
briefings on college life.
Auditorium
ryf orientation
program held
The first freshman
orientation program of the
I summer took place at ECU
june 15 through 17.
The real value of the program
lean only be judged by the
incoming treshmen. Their
reactions to orientation and
I ECU are varied.
The majority ol the incoming
freshmen interviewed were
pleased with the orientation
program. One boy said that the
program was "really
informative, well organized and
just great Another comment
was that the program seemed
pretty comprehensive but that
8:30 tests were ridiculous.
Many of the incoming
freshmen agreed that the
program was well-organized
and successful.
Most of the incoming
freshmen are enthusiastic
about coming to ECU. "East
Carolina is really a great
school said one person. "It's
not too big or too small
However, when one girl was
asked her opinion of ECU, the
only thing she had to say was
that it lias a beautiful campus
One issue that just about
everyone seemed to agree on
to some degree was visitation,
but even here the reactions
were varied. "The attitude
towards visitation is really
Victorian. By the time a person
reaches college age, he should
be a self-directed lnvidivual
was one girl's reaction.
Another person said, "This
visitation crap will have to
change, or there won't be an
ECU Most of the people
interviewed, however, take the
view that there should be
visitation but there's nothing
that can be done about it.
There were a few comments
on the apathy on campus, but
most of the incoming freshmen
had the view stated by one
future ECU student: "This is
the third day I've been here,
and I haven't seen any
apathy
Reverend 'Tom'
confused man
(Continued from ptoa 3)
The Reverend Tom Rodney
Sonnenschein, the clergyman
who conducts the funeral of
Maurice's father, seems to be
confused about his role. His
views are a little odd for one
who earns his living in the
church. "We can put
immortality back in the
junk room along with, oh,
mutton chop whiskers and Mr.
Gladstone and the Salvation
Army and evolution he states
after the funaal, and he adds.
"If you wanted to be smart
without being too superficial,
you could say that the
immortality of the soul was
invented b Dr. Arnold of
Rugby a bit unfair on the
old love, but there we are
When Maurice mentions
that he has evidence that seems
to show that an individual has
actually survived death in some
form or other and that a ghost
has given him accurate
information ?he rector says
this is a medical matter. The
young man who is either God
or Satan refers to the rector as
"that posturing idiot
Sonnenschein making me out
to be a sort of suburban Mao
Tse-tung When Maurice asks
Sonnenschein to perform a
service ot exorcism because, he
says, his house is haunted.
Sonnenschein replies. "You've
got to be joking. You don't
suppose a lot of religious
mumbo-jumbo could have the
slightest effect, do you?"
Maurice is confused about
his role as the father of a
daughter in her early teens who
was with her mother when the
latter was killed in a street
accident after the man fa whom
she left Maurice had left her,
and the husband of a second
wife who at the end of the
story leaves him after telling
him that he loves nobody and
does not really even notice
anybody.
Little as he may know
about love, Maurice is
well-schooled in lust. He and
Diana Maybury, his doctor's
wife, indulge in some sex in
open air on the afternoon after
his father's death. This activity
is repeated on the next day
Still unsatisfied, Maurice
plans an orgy involving Diana
(his wife) and himself for the
afternoon of his lather's
funeral Things do not work
out as he had planned, because
the two women concentrate on
ea h other and ignore Maurice,
who slips out ol the room and
puts a "Do Not Disturb" sign
on the door.
The descriptions of
Maurice's sexual adventures
certainly add to our knowledge
of his character, but one
suspects that in describing his
actions in some detail the
author is pandering to modern
taste or lack of it. Sex sells.
We can be glad that the
detailed descriptions are
relatively brief and infrequent.
Sex is but one aspect of the
author's broad and deep
interest in the meaning of life
and the problem of how life
can be meaningful in our time.
The questions raised are those
concerning the nature of
reality. Before leaving his
dining room the young man
who seems to be God gives
Maurice a crucifix. Then he
says. "He hasn't made much
difference to anything, as you
see
Don't let the philosophy
discourage you. This is a book
to be read. It is funny. You
will laugh when you read it.
The characters find themselves
in some ridiculous situations,
and the author's style is
amusing.
For example: "Last
summer, in particular, would
have taxed a more hardened
and versatile coper than me As
if in the service of some
underground anti-hotelier
organization, successive guests
tried to rape the chambermaid,
called for a priest at 3 a.m
wanted a room to take girlie
photographs in, were found
dead in bed or "For me, food
not only interrupts everything
while people eat it and sit
about waiting for more to be
served, but also casts a spell of
vacancy before and after. No
other sensual activity must
take place at a set time to be
enjoyed by anybody at all, or
comes up so inexorably and so
often At least sex does not
demand a simultaneous
outflow of talk, and drink
needs no mastication
The fact that this book is
written lucidly and elegantly
gives added pleasure to the
reader. This tale of a modern
"everyman" is one to be
laughed over and thought
about. It might even stimulate
some readers to think thoughts
thai would help to lessen their
confusion about the meaning
of existence
(Continued from pig 31
Then the party differentiates between
marijuana and drugs like heroin?
We differentiate between marijuana and
harder drugs like LSD and heroin We feel
basically that marijuana is no more dangerous
, than alcohol We ate definitely against harder
drugs. We feel that they are
counter-revolutionary
In our twenty-six general rules we simply say
that no party member can have any of these
drugs in his possession marijuana, alcohol,
anything when he is doing party work, nor
can he be under the influence of any of these
drugs when doing party work: and most
members of the party work full time.
Do drug In dis uidck cuiiiiHuiiiiy iiffect your
organizing efforts?
We feel that the reason people in the black
community use drugs is that they don't want to
face the horrible realities that we're confronted
with daily
These archaic, bourgeois programs they've
set up to deal with drugs these are not
helping to solve the problem, they're not
diminishing drug abuse. In fact, drugs are
increasing daily in the community. We feel that
you've got to deal with the problei s of society
first. When we solve these problems, then
people won't turn to drugs.
Drugs hinder our efforts to organize in the
black community because it upsets the
militancy in our community.
How can we deal with the problems that
confront us if we're strung out on scag (heroin)
or something like this?
You see, we've gotten a lot of brothers off
heroin. Some of the members of our party are
former drug addicts, with habits of $50 and
$60 a day. Now they don't use drugs at all and
they get high by working for the people.
And so, we try to go into the community
every day and try to talk to the brothers and
sisters and to get them to quit using drugs.
Now let's get back to the survival program.
What sort of activities are you involved in with
the survival program in North Carolina?
In Winston-Salem. 1 have, and other members
of the party have, just finished some courses in
first aid. We're going on to advanced first aid
and are getting certificates to become
ambulance attendants
We have an ambulance now and we're going
to start a Free People's Ambulance Service.
The insurance required is $1200 a year, and
we're working to get that, and to get the
thirty-three things that you necessarily have to
have in the ambulance in order to get licensed
Ambulance servic costs $20 in
Winston-Salem, and if you don't have that $20,
a lot of times people are left lying in the streets
People who don't have this money can't get to
the hospital.
This is discriminatory against the poor and
the oppressed It shows thedecadenceof this
society.
So our program is to help meet this need.To
provide people from the poor, oppressed black
community and other oppressed communities
with this free ambulance service This service
will be available to any one who needs it. no
matter what color.
Also, we're getting money together to buy
cloth and get people in the community who can
sew very well and have sewing machines, to set
up classes and teach people how. Ar that way,
you see, we're sewing new cloth 10 help
clothe needy children in the commuim .
We recognize that a lot of prisoners can't be
visited by their families, due to a lack of
transportation, so we've set up a busing
program to help take these peop. to the
prisons to visit their loved o: s.
We have a free breakfast tor children and a
free lunch for children program, where we
buy food and fix it and serve it to any child who
comes, so that they don't have to go to school
hungry and can get a good hot meal. Some
people think that we use this as a pretext to
teach party ideology, but this isn't so. We aie
too busy serving and everything, and there is
not enough time for that sort of thing.
We do teach children party philosophy, and
try to awaken their political consciousness, but
not in those programs
We have another program, called the Youth
Institute, where we take children and have
them exercise, and teach them math, science,
history, and health education. We take them to
museums, courts, jails, and other places and
teach them about this society and point out the
injustices that the oppressed people have to
suffer. We teach thei Panther ideology, and
show them how these programs can be deait
with, and where they come from.
There are other programs that we have or
would like to start soon. The Panther Party
nationally has a fund to support research in
Sickle Cell Anemia, a disease that affects
mostly black people, and we would like to
support that program
Are there any particular problems that you
find working in the South as opposed to
working in the North?
Well, in Winston-Salem we were the first
organized chapter ol the Black Panther Party in
the whole south
Fifty-one percent of the black people in
America live in the south, and some of the most
wretched conditions exist in the south
So we don't feel that it's a hindrance to work
here, but certainly, more publicity has been
given to the movement in thenorthand west
It's not that much different in the south,
really We've had our shc ol problems ill
Winston-Salem, but we have problems
everywhere
Really, when you start talking about the
south; well, Malcolm X used to say that you're
in the south once you get past the Canadian
border
Has the Black Panther Party been harrassed
by the authorities in North Carolina?
Yes, in North Carolina, especially in
Winston-Salem, which is the chapter ot the
Black Panthei Party in North Carolina, we've
been the victims of constant brutality,
intimidation, and harrassment
Our oflices have been destroyed, we've lost
about five offices in Winston-Salem this year.
People have been evicted from their homes
when they've let us set up our tiee breakfast for
children programs in their homes.
We're confronted with an organized attempt
to try and destroy the party. We've had
members of the party arrested on various
trumped-up charges, like I'm in court now on
one ot these absurd things, and they've taken
time away from our attempts to deal with the
survival program, you see. and to set up our
breakfast and lunch programs and these things
which are so important to the community.
We've been spending so much time in jail and
in court, you see, that we have a hard time
getting our programs organized Even if we're
found innocent of a charge, then still we've lost
all that time, and their harrassment has hurt our
program, and they kn " "hat.
What is the most im, xtant activity that
your organization is involved in at this time in
North Carolina?
Well, one of the foremost things on our mind
at this time is freeing the High Point Four.
We're starting now in mobilizing massive
support tor our four comrades (Andy Jennings
George De Witt. Larry Medlow jnd Bradford
Lilly), who arc now being held captive in the
High Point city jail under $15,000 bail apiece,
on charges of assault with intent to kill police
officers These chaigcs stem from an incident at
the High Point headquarters of the Black
Panther Party
Police surrounded the headquarters at 6 a.m.
to serve an "eviction notice and then began
linng guns and tea. gas into the building The
brothers tired back in sell-defense.
Their trial comes up on July 2(. and we feel
only the power of the people will tree these
brothers, and that j ??? wc want thousands ol
people to come to High Point on July 26 to see
about the High Point Foui
We're planning a whole week of activities
starting July 25
One last question Shortly after Eldndge
Cleaver was expelled from the party, he made
the statement that "what the revolution needs
is cool, calculating, killing machines " What is
your reaction to this statement?
First. I want to say that the party didn t
ex pel Cleaver, he delected iroin the party If
that was his statement. I don't agree with it
What would you say the revolution needs,
what kind of people?
Che Guevaia once said that the societ) you
would build is reflected in the way you carry
on the destruction ol the system vou want to
abolish
I don't know. I teel this is madness what
Cleaver said I just don't agree with it
At this point, mobilizing the masses is
difficult, because they've been brought up in a
completely different bag, but what you have to
do. is more or less let the people see that you
are in their best interests working in their
best interests that you do have them at heart,
that you want to see them free from American
capitalism and racism.
So, I fee! that what the revolution needs is
dedicated, determined people who necessarily
have the best interests of the community at
heart and want to see man move to a level
where we can have the highest form of living
that human technology, knowledge, and
wisdom can produce
These are the criteria for a revolutionary

Headline: Enrollment apin
shatters all records.
Once again all enrollment
records at East Carolina
Teachers College have been
broken. Although registration
has not been completed, the
total now stands at 1,218
Twenty students have been
refused entrance because of
low scholastic standing. There
has been a tremendous increase
in the number of boys on the
campus, most of whom had to
resort to living quarters in
town
October 17, 1941
Freshman Party: The annual
"freshmen party" for all
freshman boys was held in the
campus building Monday night
After customary preliminaries,
the upper classmen
administered the routine
initiation, which included mild
punishment of various kinds,
and a frantic scramble for
clothes in a dark room with
everyone's garments thrown
into one huge pile After the
party was consummated, the
freshmen became full-fledged
male members of the ECTC
student body.
Students Blacklist Olde
Towne Inn
Members of the student
body of East Carolina Teachers
College voted unanimously to
boycott and "blacklist" the
Olde Towne Inn, Greenville
restaurant, last Wednesday
night at a student mass
meeting.
The resolution which was
passed by the students read as
follows: "Whereas certain
printed matter bearing the
name of the Olde Towne Inn
has been circulated in military
camps and elsewhere, that
printed matter reading as
follows:
Come to Greenville
2,000 Beautiful Girls
Awaiting YOU With Open Arms
For Real Southern Hospitality
Visit the
Marine Room
at the
Olde Towne Inn
Whereas we believe the false
implications involved in this
method of advertising are
harmful to the college and to
the town of Greenville; We the
students of ECTC do hereby
resolve: (I) That the Olde
Towne Inn be "blacklisted"
and boycotted (2) That any
student enrolled at ECTC
(male or female, dormitory or
day student) who enters the
Olde Towne Inn for any
purpose will be suspended
from the college.
(Continued from pig 3)
remembered that these guys
were waiting for me to lead the
meeting he laughs.
Being Dean also meant
numerous television
appearances and radio spots
Wooles was a little unprepared
for this type of publicity His
first time on television he
recalls as "scary
"They tell you to foiget
about the cameras, and you
think they're crazy Then, after
two or three minutes, if you
believe in what you're doing,
you really do forget them,
because you're concerned with
telling people the truth
Wooles' wife and five
children felt a similar
excitement at his television
appearances However, "when
they realized after about 30
seconds that I was the same
man on TV that they look at
every day in the living room,
they weren't interested he
said, smiling.
The challenges of the
coming years will be as exciting
as this one, Wooles anticipates
"A new school must initially
be made attractive to attract
more faculty and students he
says And. there's work to do
to plan for the four-year
program that is eventually
promised for here
In a few years. Wooles will
peer out of the window in his
plush office in the Medical
Sciences Building As Dean of a
four-year medical school,
perhaps he will look at his
"baby" and be amazed at how
fast she's grown up
