Geraldine Sowell Houston, a Durham College alumni, serves as executive assistant to Congressman Mitchell. Two other members of the U. S.

Persons interested in securing tickets should contact John W. Edwards, Director of Alunni Affairs, at Durham College. Churches To Observe 4th Martin L King, Jr. Sunday Devoted followers of Martin Luther King, Jr., are planning to observe for the fourth consecutive year, Martin Luther King, Jr. Sunday on January 18, 1976. This Sunday was first set aside for observance by the Progressive National Baptist Convention, Inc., during the presidency of Dr. L. V. Booth in 1972, who also holds the distinction of being one of its- principal, founders,- Dr. Booth explains: 4 Each Third Sunday in January, (the Sunday nearest to Dr. King's birthday) is set aside to commemorate and extol the illustrious life of America's greatest 'Apostle of Love and Non-Violence." It is Dr. Booth's belief that ' vandalism in the schools, crime in the streets and violent resistance to integration' we be overcome if the legacy of Dr. King is held up and shared by people of good will everywhere. The churches of all denominations have a responsibility in this matter, says Dr. Booth, and can be more effective in teaching love than any other institution. Dr. Booth expressed the hope that a grateful America will remember Dr. Martin Luther King, h,,;, not as ;arr idol. ,to. ;be worshipped,- but as an example to be followed. We need to remember him also as a young, gifted and great leader who gave so much for so many - even to generations yet unborn. Churches and individuals are urged to send all contributions to: Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Social Change, 617 Beckwith Street, S. W., Atlanta, Georgia - 30314. DURHAM COLLEGE ALUMNI TO SPONSOR MAIN ACTIVITIES OF HOMECOMING Hartin Luihcr King, Jr. 'Martin Luther King, Jr. Was a man of the South, having been born in Atlanta, Georgia on January 15, 1929. After completing an outstanding academic career in Atlanta's Morehouse College and in universities in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts, he returned to the South to pastor the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama. It was in the South that Dr. King would gain national prominence as a non-violent civil rights activist. ' The Montgomery bus boycott is still regarded today as the catalyst in commencing the civil rights struggle. From Montgomery, King went on to form the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, and led historic civil rights rnarches on Birmingham and Washington, bringing throngs; of people to their feet in 1963 with his memorable ' I Have a Dream' speech. None of us can forget the tragic events in Selma, as the racist Bull Connor and his troops attempted to physically prevent Dr. King and his followers from registering to vote. It was due to his efforts and the constant televising of the events in Selma which led to the passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, which I am proud to say we recently extended for seven years. ' In his own country, Dr. King was hated. It is ironic that the peace and harmonious race relations King sought to achieve at home and abroad would be recognized not by his own nation but by those who decide upon the recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize. Of all the dozens of honorary degrees King was to receive, none was more cherished than this one. "Dr. King was concerned about the welfare of all mankind. It was therefore no surprise to me when he raised his voice against United States participation in the Vietnam War. Although he suffered a tremendous amount of criticism for speaking out against the war, he nonetheless didn't relent in his efforts to raise the moral consciousness of the American people. Even though he was killed before we had extracted ourselves totally from that immoral involvement, his efforts combined with those of other peace activists, helped bring about a faster United States disengagment. "Dr. King's decision to go to Memphis to support the sanitation workers in their demand for a living wage and better working conditions way typical of his willingness to go wherever and whenever necessary to fight injustice. He recognized that the situation in Memphis was po potentially dangerous, but he went, as he had done so many times before to confront America's racism and inhumanity. Unfortunately, Dr. King would not be returning from this last battle. ' To many millions of people Dr. King provided the incentive to keep up the struggle. If he could take the verbal barbs and the physical abuse in order to achieve racial equality, then certainly those for whom he fought can remain steadfastly behind him. We stay with Dr. King's legacy because we believe, as he did, that better days are coming. And although much remains to be done, we have indeed come a long way, thanks to no small measure to the courageous and spiritual work of Dr. King. "We need no further deliberation on this legislation. I believe it is clear to the Members of this Subcommittee that Dr. King was a giant in a world full of little people. Let us not delay in providing a token illustration that we here in the Congress do intend to pick up his fallen mantle. Let us move quickly to pass the legislation that will make Dr. King's birthday a national holiday.' Excerpted from Testimony of Congressman Charles B. Rangel on H. R. 1 810. 1 1 . 1 .

Your busing stand represents a radical departure . from yourf past record of liberalism on civil i rights and it is sad ,to see you sacrifice noble principles to presidential ambitions."

At a time when the nation needs its leadership to speak out in support of the constitutional rights of black children you have chosen to pour oil on the flames of controversy by encouraging anti-busing movements who.se ultimate aim is restoration of segregated schools. This is reminiscent of the Durham College will observe its 28th Annual Homecoming on February 16 and 17.

Josephine Turner commented, "When one hurts; we all hurt." And John Edwards, whose voice was broken up with grief, said that " Miss Little's death would be felt very dearly by the Sunday school. She is survived by her mother, Mrs. Bessie Little of 214 E. Corporation Street, two brothers, Louis and Johnny, several relatives and a host of friends. In the oration, Reverend Grady Davis reiterated his strong stand against capital punishment, equating it with the old Hammurabian code of "an eye for an eye; a tooth for a tooth." Davis spoke cynically about any attempt at a thorough investigation of the bombing. "Who can you trust these days? asked the short but powerful pastor. "The FBI, CIA cabinet members? It looks like everybody's being investigated themselves." This is no ordinary killing," he continued in reference to the culprit who is still unknown.
