Pleads For Help Students should be proud of the fact that their dormitories, classroom buildings, campus grounds, other buildings, streets and the surrounding areas are kept clean and tidy. They do not have problems with insects and other pests. They should appre ciate the people who daily give them this care. Yet, the maintenance depart ment wonders if students appre ciate them at all. Many of their actions are not examples of grown men and women. Even though pleas are extended to the residential students to refrain from placing clothes hangers in the incinerators along with soft- drink bottles, may students con tinue to do this. This only makes it inconvenient for the other stu dents who reside in the dormi tory. Paper is thrown on the campus grounds and the bright red and white trash receptacles are overlooked. Soft drink bottles are left on window sills, in the halls, or along the steps and walks sur rounding the buildings. Students are provided with the proper waste receptacles so these acts of childish carelessness are un necessary. Responsible adults take more pride in things of which they are a part. Won’t you prove that you know and put into practice your responsibilities as a member of the college family? We enjoy serving you but won’t you help us to be of more service? The time we spend picking up, re^ pairing, and cleaning up after you could be spent doing other things in your behalf. —Maintenance Dept.

Graham A Black Man^s Prayer Dear Lord, in the heaven so blue, I’d like to ask a favor of you. I know I’m just a little black man; But please Lord, please understand. You see, my people are in great need Of someone to help them, will you please? They want to ostracize us from the human race Just because black is the color of our face. Lord we only want our human rights — That’s the only reason we often fight. The white man doesn’t seem to realize That he’s superior only in his eyes. When you made the white, you made us too. (I think I’m right Lord, is this true?) Why do the black people have to plea For respect, integrity, and equality. We, too, are in the front rows in Viet Nam; We lose eyes, legs, hands, and arms. Does the enemy shoot the little black man, Then turn to shake the white one’s hand? Lord, help us in all our dismay. I guess that’s all I have to say. In the future, I hope to see Love, unity, and equalitj'. —Betty Peters Sfudents and Faculty Become Blood Donors Mr. Robert Brower, principal of the local Anderson Junior- Senior High School of Winston- Salem, North Carolina, recently installed the members of the Xi Gamma Chapter of the Phi Beta Lambda Business Organization of Winston-Salem State College, The installation date was Wed nesday morning, Feb, 2, at 10 a.m. in Fries Auditorium.
