U.N.
Chief
Speaks
Here

T. V. STAFF WRITER
Dr. Angie Brooks,
president of the United
Nations General Assem
bly, told a memorial au
dience, “The conflict be
tween the rich and the
poor is running a close
second to the East-West
ideological struggle as
the chief cause of world
tension.”
The U. N. chief’s Octo
ber 25 address highlight
ed a day long observance
of United Nations Week
held by FSU earlier in
the day. She spoke and
lunched on FSU’s camp
us.
“We know that two
thirds of the world’s pop
ulation lives on one sixth
of its income, and if the
first and most dangerous
of the causes of world ten
sion is the ideological
conflict between East and
West, not far behind it
in magnitude is the con
flict between the rich and
the poor,” she said.
“Let us remember that
the nuclear arms race is
the greatest danger fac
ing the world, and this
race must be, not only
hated, but also reversed
if humanity is to sur
vive,” she reminded.
Dr. Brooks explained,
“Differences between the
powers principally con-

cerned have prevented the
attainment of the ultimate
goal.”
Commenting on the
poor - rich problem, the
Liberian born U.N. chief
said, “There still exists
in the world today many
examples of encroach
ments upon human rights
and fundamental free
doms and a great deal
which remains to be done
about it. The Key to re
move poverty and depri
vation in the world is not
charity.”
“All the riches of the
developed third of the
world would not by them
selves be enough to meet
the needs of the under
priviledged,” she said.
She also mentioned that .
the answer lies in viti-
lization of existing brain
power, muscle power,
soil, minerals, capital,
and the other building
blocks of modern econo
my.
Classmate of President
Lyons: Earlier in the day
at FSU, Dr. Brooks re
called her first entry in
to the state in the late
1940’s to enroll at Shaw
University in Raleigh,
Despite her recent
election as president of
the UN General Assem
bly, and her title as
Assistant Secretary of
State in Liberia, her
classmates who came
from throughout the area
greeted her as “Angle”.
The coordinator of Sat
urday’s program in Fay
etteville was Dr. Charles
“A” Lyons, FSU Presi
dent. He and Dr. Brooks
were classmates at Shaw.
She said that she is
encouraged by changes in
the society of North Ca
rolina, but said that much
work remains to be done.
ADMINISTRATORS’, STUDENTS’ VIEWS
The Black
University Aired
By CLIFTON MERVIN
T. V. CO-EDITOR
CBS T.V. Channel II presented a program on the
past and current roles and pertinent problems of North
Carolina’s Black universities, Sunday, October 26.
Black university presidents and administration
seemed to agree that the black university offered
a “psychological advantage to its attending black
student that he could not obtain in a predominant
ly white school.” Here are some comments of some
of the leaders interviewed.
. Dr. Charles Lyons, FSU: “Blacks don’t get the
sense of a full social existence in predominantly
white universities. Richness is gained in being
a part of the black university,
. Dr. L. C. Dowdy, A&TSU: “To prepare our stu
dents for other areas of work than the usual,
we need broader areas of interest with our
curricula so designed. The black school is healthy
for the ego of the black student.
. Whiting, NCCU: “Students have been deprived
for years in secondary schools; it is the re
sponsibility of black universities to make up
for those deprivations.
, Dr. King V. Cheek, Shaw U.: “The role Is two
