i^omments received thus far by

lial Decade Advisory Committee
■learly indicate that the Lamp of
Earning monument to be erected
n Dunning Park will be highly
lontroversial.
jA clay model was shown at the

Conference and a few members
ninced no words in expressing dis-
ipproval. But most liked it.
IThe comments recall similar con-
roversies over sculptures in Atlanta
ind Chicago. A 33-foot high fiber
[lass sculpture in Atlanta’s Peach-
ree Center Plaza, designed by Bel-
iflim-born sculptor Robert Hels-
noortel, has evoked considerable
iiscussion since it was completed
wo years ago. During recent weeks,
I I similar controversy—with “what
s it” overtones—has aroused Chi-

all sculpture by Pablo Picasso rises

ber’s first Quarterly Beautification
Award.
“It’s personally and professionally
rewarding to me to know that an
artist of Mangum’s high reputation
is spending so much energy in de
veloping an idea for us,” said Dunn
ing. He thanked the Chamber’s Cen
tennial Decade Advisory Committee
for the commission and providing
cultural leadership in Greensboro.
Artist Mangum is an associate
professor of Salem College’s Art
Department. He teaches sculpture,
painting and art history at the
Winston-Salem institution.
It is expected that City of Greens
boro street plans will affect the
park area and when it does, the
monument will be removed to an
other suitable location, possibly
right smack in the middle of Green
sboro’s downtown.
The Dunning park site is adjac
ent to the Dunning plants in the
wedge where Ashe and Lewis
Streets intersect Lee Street.
The monument’s inscription will
include a tribute to Greensboro’s
two universities and three colleges,
with a notation of their founding
dates. Aluminum for the sculpture
is being provided by General Met
als, Inc., a Greensboro metal fab
ricator, which is headed by Saund
ers Williams, a member of the
Chamber’s Arts Acquisition and
Centennial Decade Advisory Com
mittee. The foundry work will be
done by Brogden Foundry, a small
Greensboro foundry which special
izes in custom work.
Petition Considers Negotiations
As Solution To Vietnam Conflict
Reprinted
Business,
from Greensboro
September, 1967.
A campaign for names in the
Winston-Salem area of those favor
ing negotiation between all parties
concerned in the Vietnamese con
flict is being sponsored by a na
tional citizen’s organization called
“Negotiation Now!”
The organization hopes to have
one million signatures to the peti
tion by October 9 when the exe
cutive committee of “Negotiation
Now!” will present it to President
Johnson.
The petition states that:
We support the call by U Thant
for new initiatives to bring
about negotiations among all
parties to the conflict leading
to a political settlement of the
Vietnam War.
We call upon the United States,
the most powerful nation in the
world, to take the first step and
end the bombing of North Viet
nam now and without con
ditions. We ask our govern
ment to take further initatives
leading to a standstill truce.
We ask North Vietnam and the
National Liberation Front to
respond affirmatively to any
new United States initiatives
and to join with the U. S. in a
standstill ceasefire.
We ask South Vietnam to re
spect and join in these steps.
This course of action presents
to the United States a moral
alternative to our stated policy
of bringing about negotiations
by force, or to the devastation
of all-out war, and a more real
istic alternative than unilateral
withdrawal.
Scandal! Men Discovered
in Salem College Dorm
He’s everywhere! He’s every
where ! One evening, as the junior
gazed into the eyes of the man
above her, she shrieked as his
shoulder brushed against her cheek.
She pushed him against the wall,
and reached for the scotch tape to
put him back in his proper place.
It must be nice to be one of the
fortunate Salem girls who have Paul
Newman gazing down at them as
they sleep.
Startled by the reflection in the
mirror, a sophomore gasps and
grabs for her robe. There he is
again, with his deep blue eyes star
ing at her as he leans against her
wall. He appears again next door
with a different outfit, but with
those same blue eyes.
This appears to be the most pop
ular man on campus. Paul New

Thursday freshmen took it easy
as the upperclassmen fought over
courses and registration. The Open
ing Convocation commenced with
the academic procession of the
faculty and the entrance of the
Class of 1968 in cap and gown.
As a treat for the returning stu
dents and as a means of introduc
ing a few of the freshmen. May

However, a few activities remained
/ primarily the Handbook test on
Tuesday night. Sunday night the
Class of 1971 was officially inducted
into membership in the campus
YWCA chapter, and tomorrow,
they will be officially inducted into
the life of a student at an all-girl
college—they’ll leave campus for a
mixer at Davidson organized by

We believe that such initiatives
now can break the impasse and
lead to negotiations and a poli
tical settlement providing for
the removal of all foreign
troops and for genuinely demo
cratic elections in which all
South Vietnamese can parti
cipate freely.
“Negotiation Now!” is not a re
ligious organization nor is it backed
by any certain political organization
or ideology. It is, however, a citi
zens’ organization backed by a var
ied cross-section of Arnericans who
wish to show the President that
there would be considerable popular
support for this policy.
Fulbright Means Future
Capable Salemites
For
any drab, green Salem wall worth
looking at. But, he fits in any
where, since those blue eyes and
rippling muscles go with every
.decor. By all means, he is a worth
while addition to any wall, ceiling,
or door.
Life-sized photos have aroused
Salem’s passion for Paul. However,
Paul is not the only man around—
since “The Great Escape”, Steve
McQueen has also made the scene.
Boyfriend’s 9x12 photographs cer
tainly seem dull when placed before
wall-to-wall sex appeal—oops, pos
ters.
Even travel posters of Spanish
matadors poised for the kill are fast
losing appeal now that the new
art(?) craze favors the “grubby
tee-shirt” look. And incidentally,
this is the only legal way to have
men in your room!

ing orders for Salem lapboards.
