They are the Washington Post and The Boston Globe The Times installments of a series based on the Pentagon’s 47-volume 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 |. Gurfein turned down the government's request for a preliminary injunction barring The Times from publishing further articles based on the classified documents but the government appealed to the circuit court In making the ruling Gurfein printed three said,” This Court does not, doubt) the right of — the government to injunctive relief against a newspaper that is about to publish information or documents vital to current national security. But it does not find that to be the case Students face defla By SHERRY BUCHANAN Staff Writer Despite recent monetary problems, plans are continuing for 38 students to attend Haus 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. Robert Williams, provost. “We have made all of our contracts in currency.” Williams expressed his concern but said he felt the some German 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 The Washington Post, U.S. 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 The Post began publication of the study where The Times left off and was halted by the restraining order after two installments. On Tuesday The Boston Globe portions of that study Attorney General John N Mitchell said Tuesday that he will seek a court order to halt the Boston Globe trom 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 War If to printed new would stabilize things would currency somewhat and work out fine ECU is renting Haus Steinneck for the academic year ‘7I-‘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 tront of Haus Steinneck, New plumbing and more shower , facilities had also been added 1967. It was ordered by former Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara The Times obtained copies of 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 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 American ground troops in offense operations In obtaining the restraining order against The Times, the government argued that further incident 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 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 be going, but Dr William Troutman will take his place. Troutman will be in residence during the winter quarter “All the faculty members are specialists in their fields,” said Williams, ‘‘and areas have been selected for study so that the students will complete enough hours for the European Cognate Minor. “The students will take a total of 45 hours in block courses to acquire this minor, Each subject is geared to European aspects, with made public only “at the appropnate 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 Activist summoned RALEIGH (AP) JUNE 14 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 bombing Detroit at 9 am Tuesday about the March Tola told newsmen he was in Washington during the week betore the incident, but he denied any pa in bombing the Capitol. He said he went to Washington to work on a newspaper in connection with May Day demonstrations 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 Washington roomed in the same house in 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 squad checked their car for explosives “We have been harassed every since,” but found none Tola said. “The FBI has been to my family and my friends asking questicns about where | was when the capitol was bombed.” He added It was an act of love, an act I didn’t do the capitol bombing, but ally dug it carried out by the Weather Underground to show their love for the Indochinese and to freak out the warmongers and bring 4 smile and a wink to the kids who hate this government.’ Tola, a Raleigh native who dropped out of the University of North Carolina to pursue his antiwar work, said, “The than an FBI--Justice Department jury is nothing more grand conspiracy against the thousands of young people in this country who are making their righteous anger known particular emphasis on Germany or other surronding countries. Clyde Hiss of the School of Music will have a special interest in Bonn since it was the birth Beethoven and is a great opera place of center Another dilemma facing the students will be the new “value added tax.” This a_ general consumers tax levied upon the German people. The courts have recently ruled that Haus Steineck will come under this new tax, and it may be an important factor in the future cost 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 tion problem and all 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 over If the program goes well, 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 Williarns, “and we'd try to get a special rate for them,” some If all continues to proceed smoothly, the students will leave for Germany on September 1S PUBLIC: Q. “Mr. President Representat Laird of Wiscor declared that tt Administration is prepari t Vietnam war into the North.

No, I’m just the co-ordinator of the Black Panther Party primarily in North Carolina We don’t have a chairman as such. We're not Pantner Party 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.

We feel that the Weathermen went underground too early, That you should wait unul you're really pushed underground 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 armed struggle all the time and other things like using so much profanity in the party paper and all that, we people divorced ourselves from the Now we've realized that and weve learned that you have to stay with the people and try to raise their level of consciousness.

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 tell you that creativity doesn’t always come easily. “We put the School together in the face of opposition we never dreamed ot.” he explains leaning back in his chair thoughtfully [ndeed, the problems in creating a medical school were plentiful.

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 Coupled with this was the fact that the two-year school is GEORGETOWN SHOPPES $21 COTANCHE ST Just Arrived!

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 t organize among the youth.

FRESHMEN MEET IN Wright Auditorium for rrst orientation program held The first freshman orientation program of the summer took place at ECU June 15 through 17 The real value of the program can only be judged by the incoming treshmen. Their reactions to orientation and ECU are varied The majority of 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 f freshmen are enthusiastic Sy 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 has 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 teaches college age, he should be a self-directed invidivual,” 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 page 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 Amny and evolution,” he states after the funeral, and he adds “If you wanted to be smart without being too superficial, you could say that the immortality of the soul was invented by 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 the 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 of 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 manta 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 father’s funeral. Things do not work out as he had planned, because the two women concentrate on each other and ignore Maurice, who slips out of the room and puts a “Do Not Disturb” on the door. The 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 aid infrequent sign 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. example “Last summer, in particular, would have taxed a 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 For more 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 that would help to lessen their confusion about the meaning of existence descriptions of Wednesday June 23, 1971, Fountainhead, Page 5 Drugs and oppression face Blacks (Continued from page 3) Then the party differentiates marijuana and drugs like heroin? between We differentiate between marijuana and harder drugs like LSP and heroin. We feel basically that marijuana is no more dangerous than alcohol. We are 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 tim i Gis biack Community affect 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 problenis 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, | 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 service 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 4 be @ je io ally 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 | ‘hat way, you see, we're sewing new cloth to help clothe needy children in the communi 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 or os We have a free breakfast for 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 are 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, 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 dealt with, and where they come from. There are other programsthat we have or would like to start soon.

Yes, in North Carolina, especially in Winston-Salem, which is the chapter of the Black Panther Party in North Carolina, we've been the victims of constant brutality intimidation, and harrassment Our offices 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 tree 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 of 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 know ‘hat What is the most im) ortant 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 for our four comrades (Andy Jennings George De Witt, Larry Mediow, and Bradtord Lilly), who are 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 charges 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 begar firing guns and tea: gas into the building. The brothers fired back in self-defense omes up on July 26 will free Their trial and we feel only the ee power of the people these we wait thousands o people to come to High Point on July 26 to se about the High Point Four We're whole starting July week activitic planning @ One last question. Shortly after Eldridge 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, | want to say that the party didn’t expel Cleaver, he detected from the party. If that was his statement, | don’t agree with it What would you say the revolution needs, what kind of people? Che Guevara once said that the s: lely you would build is reflected in the way you carry on the destruction of the system you want t abolish I don't know, I feel this is madness ~ what Cleaver said. | just don’t agree with it At this int, mobilizing the masses is difficult, because they've been brought up in a completely different bag, but what you have t do, is more or less jet the people see that you are in their best interests best interests — that you do have them at heart that you want to see them free from Americar capitalism and racism So, I feel that what the dedicated, have the best interests of the community at heart and want to see man where we can have the highest form of living that human technology, knowledge, and wisdom can produce These are the criteria for a revolutionary working in their revolution needs is determined people who necessarily move to a level Challenge of coming years (Continued from pege 3) remembered that these guys were waiting for me to lead the meeting,” he laughs Being Dean also numerous television appearances and radio spots Wooles was a little unprepared for this type of publicity.

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.

With the 1972 primary election oming in less than a year, this bill is especially Important to college students. The primary 1s scheduled for May, the same time that most North Carolina have scheduled final exams. If a student wants to vote in that election, he will have to vote absentee in most personnel can vote universities in cases Another bill now in the senate which concerns only university students is a bill which will allow students to decline to pay fees for student newspapers. There 1s still another bill in the legislature which will end all inter-dormitory visitation in all state supported universities. Some bills in the legislature will affect all young people, not just students. For example, in the House there is a bill which would prohibit discrimination against youths in setting rates for auto liability and collision insurance rates The bill currently being debated throughout the state which would require attendants at all gasoline dispensing devices will affect everyone who drives a car. There are many self-service gasoline stations in Greenville, and many ECL students take advantage of their lower prices. If this bill passes, these self-service stations will be no more These are just a few of the bills that will affect young people either directly or indirectly and there are others aimed at certain groups of young people. For instance, the bill providing funds tor the ECU medical school will affect only ECU and the surrounding area Students need to voice their opinions on all )! these bills The silent majority may be right but the ones that take the time to step out of that role and voice their views are the ones that can determine the fate of these bills A letter or phone call to your state representative or se vator can be much effective before the bill is passed than any demonstration can be after the bill is passed or killed Fountainhead Robert W.

Baker Adviser ‘The Crisis’ remembers James Weldon Johnson-- author and hero of his race EDITOR'S NOTE: This editorial, in a condensed form, is reprinted with permission from the June, 1971 issue of The Crisis, the official organ of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. One hundred years ago this month — on June 17, 1871 — James Weldon Johnson was born in Jacksonville, Flonda, of parents who had been free persons of color,” before the South's slave system was crushed by the Civil War. It was nota typical post-bellum family into which he and his talented brother, J. Rosamond, were born. Culturally and economically — their parents, James and Helen Louise Johnson, were far better off than the average Negro family and many white families of that period. Though they did not live in luxury they were able t spare their sons the pangs of extreme poverty and the despair of ignorance From this relatively advantaged origin the elder brother, James Weldon, went on to higher education at Atlanta University and beyond, to brilliant and productive careers as consular officer, as writer and as civil rights leader, In each of these fields his achievements were outstanding. Certainly his literary contributions and his role as an effective leader of the Fight for Freedom earned him an enduring place of distinction in the literary and social history of the United States Born in 1871, he was the child of an era of transition. That was the year that Congress repealed the “ironclad” oath of allegiance required of all ex-Contederates as a condition for the restoration of their once spurned United States citizenship. This was the beginning of the end of Reconstruction the harbinger of the return to power of the former slaveholders and the consequent regionwide blackout of the Negro’s war-won citizenship rights James Weldon Johnson was of a breed always rare in American lite and now practically extinet. He was an exceptionally intelligent, sophisticated and elegant gentleman of unfailing courtesy. He was also a man of ideals, of courage, of commitment, of compassion. A gifted poet and writer, an astute diplomat, a militant civil rights leader, he moved with ease grace and complete self-assurance in all levels of society the ivied halls of academe, the glittering mansions of statecraft, the dingy resorts of the ghetto, or the plantation cabins of the black peons. He was one who could rap with the man in the street, with the restive younger generation, and with the radicals without losing his cool. And he could, Kipling’s words, “walk with kings, nor lose the common touch.” In all his fighting for the rights of his people he remained the composed — gentleman, expressing himself with eloquence and without compromise and never succumbing to corrosive racial hatred or stultifying bitterness. In this he was truly a civilized person and a_ heroic character The following biography is condensed from an article run in the September, 1938 issue of The Bad cartoon To Fountainhead On Wednesday, June 16, you published a detestable cartoon entitled “Drug-oriented Comix” which glorifies dissolute, pernicious habits and portrays despicably irresponsible and destructive behavior Cartoons like this can corrupt young students who come to this institution full of shining hope and dedication, wide-eyed with innocent curiosity. Imagine the effect of this rotten cartoon on an impressionable young freshman here for his first summer session, He has been properly trained to be courteous to his elders, not to leave his socks on the floor, to respect the flag, and not to pick his nose in public unless it’s absolutely necessary. Then he sees it, right there in Fountainhead : a cartoon depicting student holding a phonograph record with his fingers on the grooves! Oh, horrible! All that grease and dirt gets into the little tiny grooves and insidiously, pop by pop, destroys the music. First thing you know our clean-cut student will begii handling his own records by the grooves, slowly destroying them, Then he will start on his friends’ records, and may even introduce his friends to the habit Finally, someday, he may be invited to a professor's house. There, while rifling through the professor's record collection and making intelligent musical conversation like “The Schubert Trout Quintet sounds like a heavy group,” he may take out one of the professor’s records with his fingers omthe grooves. That will be the end. The professor will angrily ask him to leave. He will naturally flunk the professor's course, Word will get around among the professors that he smeared onion dip ail over Dr. Looney’s favorite recording of Beethoven's Grosse Fugue. His college ‘career will then be finished, his entire future blighted, all because of a miserable Fountainhead cartoon David Lunney Chemistry Department McGovern To Founta:shead This letter is written in the hope that the james weldon johnson Crisis. James Weldon Johnson was born in Jacksonville, Fiorida, on June 17, 1971, the son of James and Helen Johnson. He was an A.B and A.M., Atlanta University; a Litt. D. (1917) Talladega College, and Howard Unwersity (1923). He attended Columbia University for three years He married Grace Nail of New York City on Feb. 3, 1910 In collaboration with his brother, J Rosamond Johnson, he wrote numbers of plays, musicals, light operas, and songs. He wrote the E ns version of the libretto to the grand opera “‘Goyescas, ‘which was produced at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York The Forum students of ECU will awaken to the political realities of the world. In about one year, the people of the United States will be faced with a very crucial decision: to return the Nixon administration to office or to set America ona new course Instantly one thinks ‘Oh, the Democrats?” For much too long a period of time, the word Democrat stirred up the images of “machine politics” and “smoke-filled rooms.” Although the majority of these images may be justified, there are exceptions. The election of 1972 may well prove this. There is at this time a man who has officially announced his candidacy for the office of the president. This man is Senator George McGovern of South Dakota To really appreciate the candidacy of McGovern, it is beneficial to look at his past record in office. Senator McGovern has served in Congress since 1957. Sen. McGovern has been co-sponsor of virtually every piece of civil rights legislation since 1963. In the House, he led in the drafting and enactment of the National Defense Education Act which funds many ECU students In the environment area, he 1s a principal sponsor of a pending bill which would give the individual the right to bring action in federal courts against polluters. In addition, he has co-sponsored all major environmental protection laws and is an advocate of a world environmenta! institute But these are only a few of his issue stands. He is most well-known for his stance on the war in Southeast Asia. Sen. McGovern first spoke out against the Vietnam war on the floor of the Senate on September 24, 1963. He has recently attempted to set a definite date for the complete withdrawal of American forces from Southeast Asia in return for the release of American prisoners His approach is low-key. But the softness of his words often masks the bluntness of their message. “I intend to be as completely forthright as a presidential candidate as I have been as a senator,” he said when he began to campaign Success or failure for the South Dakotan will depend on his performance in next year’s presidential primaries. North Carolina will be City in 1915 “The Creation,” a Negro folk poem written by Johnson and set to music by a well known composer, was given in New York in 1926 ata Chamber Concert in Town Hall with Serge Koussevitzky, leader of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, as conductor In 1906 he was appointed U.S. consul at Venezuela, where he served until 1909 when he was transferred to a similar post in Nicaragua. In 1930 he became professor of creative literature at Fisk University. In 1934, he became visiting professor of creative literature at New York University He was awarded the Spinarn Medal in 1925 and the gold medal in the Second Harmon Awards, in 1927 one of the states conducting primaries.
