"I know I have reason to be alarmed by what is happening to us," Kazin told the crowd of about 100 people. "I am not a politician. I am an old-fashioned American liberal." Kazin, a noted literary critic and author for nearly half a century, has been a distinguished Professor of English at Hunter College in New York since 1973. Kazin's speech, titled "The Strange .Death of Liberal America;" emphasized the liberal America that placed hope on the future. That hope is based on the ex periences of the past, and it is this remem brance of the past that has become scarce, Kazin said. "Liberal America is an attitude... an ' awareness that freedom should be the base of our political society," Kazin told the audience. It is the apathy of present day Americans which is lending to the destruction of this , train of thought, he said. 9 L Luncheon Specials available at lunch 11 to 2 p.m. M-F Pizza Buffet . .

Liberal America urges ' citizen par ticipation, Kazin said. "Public opinion when spontaneous and unorganized is powerful." "Are you a pessimist?" Kazin asked himself. "No, I'm an American," he replied. "I have great hope," he said. "I just don't think where we're going will be very helpful to our children." Kazin also discussed an America whose thoughts are dominated by war. For 40 years we have faced the threat of total war, and this has had a devastating effect on American, culture, he said. " We are dreaming of a war no one can win... It's denying us of a future." And the future depends largely on the educational system of today, he said. "Our chief problem with education is that our system has become vocational without being able to guarantee jobs. Never have I been so aware of the gap between the educator and the non educator."' Kazin's speech was sponsored by tb Carolina Union Special Projects Con; mittee in cooperation with the UNC American Studies Curriculum. 3 Nightly Specials Monday and Tuesday ' Pizza Buffet AH the Pizza and salad you can eat only $3.23 Wednesday Lasagna and .
