'l 1 '"V 4 f I J LL i. s ' 41 t - Roger Hazelton Richard Harkiiess Mission Concept Changing Television's Growing Effect "I found myself in a corridor asking a man, what does it feel like to be a Korean Southern (Baptist," Dr. Roger Hazelton told afternoon Sym posium audiences in Gerrard Hall yesterday. Dr. Hazelton who is Dean of the Oberlin Col lege Graduate School of Theology, said that there was more of a devolution than a revolution in religion today. He said that this could be seen in the two major fields of religion: denomination and mission work. He said that the entire concept of missions was changing. The church is losing a lot of its old colonialist bent and is beginning to treat some of the Asiatic and African churches more as equals than as inferiors. "There are some forms of obedience in the younger churches," Dr. Hazelton said, "which put some of our churches to shame." Pewless Church Dr. Hazelton said that an example of this change was a small church in India. The inhabi tants of the town where the church was built had constructed the church out of stone and had put everything in it from the altar down to the pews. Recently, amidst a great deal of protest the pews were removed. The removal of. the pews, Dr. Hazelton said, made the church into more of a Christian church than it had been before, because the people who were not accustomed to sitting in chairs and who did not like to sit in chairs had begun to worship in their own way instead of in the way of the Westerners. In the field of denominations, Dr. Hazelton said the change is coming slowly towards a more unified church. Denominations, he said, as we know them, are peculiar to the United States. In a recent meeting of church representatives of most of the protestant faiths in New Delhi, the representatives quickly ceased to be repre sentatives of any one particular denomination and became representatives of the Christian church in their particular countries. Dr. Hazelton said that partly because of the mobility of the population of the United States, denominations in the United States were getting closer and closer to a central norm in most of their major ideas and concepts. Air Force Major To Speak 1 1. J " : HI 4 $ 3 :.;5'; in - I 4 y4 By Harry Delung Television's growing effect on politics, educa tion, and international relations was emphasized by Richard Harkness, news commentator for the National Broadcasting Company, who spoke here yesterday. Political In noting the vastness of television's potential, Harkness sighted a recent national poll which indicated that the public places more faith in what they see on the screen than any other news media. Although the NBC commentator said that he preferred to depend on journalists for news interpretation, he pointed out the revolutionary . effect television is having by bringing current events into the home. "People can see what is happening, and 'seeing is believing'." He stressed the important changes that "elec tronic journalism" brought to national politics in 1960. In referring to the publicity that television gave the latest presidential campaign, Harkness spoke of the media as "a contribution to democ racy." Joseph McCarthy Television's part in publicizing the late Sena tor Joseph McCarthy sighted as one of the most effective methods of exposing the controversial senator's methods to the public. Harkness, who . said that the press had given McCarthy the head lines he wanted, recalled the televising of an army inquiry which "needed no editorial com ment to arouse the public about McCarthy." The achievements of television in education served as a basis for the broadcaster's optimism about teaching literacy to ignorant masses throughout the world. He noted such a proposal for Haiti which, like many Carribean islands, may be fertile ground for Communists while num bers can neither read nor write. Impressions Particular concern was voiced about the im pressions . which people in other countries get from watching American-made television pro grams. Harkness, whose humor delighted the audience, recalled the incident of a Nigerian who, after seeing many TV westerns, wondered why Americans still rode horses and apparently had no automobiles. When asked during the question and answer period whether he thought that television was '"corrupting" American youth, Harkness replied that the fault might lie with parents "who use television as a baby sitter." One of his sons, Peter, is a freshman at Carolina. By LLOYD LITTLE James Reston last night said problems produced by today's revolutions can be acted upon by the individual through honest dis cussions based on facts. The Washington Bureau Chief for the New York Times said one of the things "that needs to be revolutionized is the press of our country. The reason is that the press has transferred the tech niques of the county court house and small town to the world po litical situation. "This has distorted the picture of the world. In effect this has given the country a feeling of hopeless ness and endlessness about the world situation. I don't believe this is true." The press and the individual, said Reston, must gain a perspective of our times. Domestic Revolutions On the domestic scene, he point ed out revolutions in industry mov ing south and west, in science and automation resulting in the prob lem of joblessness, and in our economy with the problem of higher taxes. - "These questions all indicate the kind of problems these new revo lutions are bringing." He spoke of revolutions overseas such as half the people of the world have changed the form of government in the last 60 years and 800 million have achieved self-government. "The old empires, once the keep ers of order in the world, have collapsed and the decisive powers have moved from western Europe to American and the Soviet Union, the least experienced nations, and recently the sleeping giant of China and to what effect and what end, I don't know." "The impact of all these revolu tions is perfectly staggering. I think it's one of the great failings of this administration in not mak- FLYING CLUB MEMBERS inspect their new airplane.

Dual Purpose The class officers have stated a dual purpose of the essay contest: "to awaken the student s sense ol responsibility both to himself and to his fellow students, and to more firmly establish this university's real meaning and impact. The officers do not ask that the writer limit himself to applause or condemnation of the "Carolina way of life," but that he evaluate the university and explain the im prcssion it has made and the ef fect this impression will render in the student's future years. Ideas Into Open "We feel," the officers stated, "that students here spend four of their most formulative years at Carolina without ever completely grasping an understanding of the relationship between the univer sity and its product, the student We feel that this contest can get individual ideas into the open for consideration. i i & m Campus Briefs Flatt and Scruggs The senior class is sponsoring Earl Flatt and Lester Scruggs and :he Foggy Mountain Boys in a con cert here Wednesday night in Me morial Hall at 8.

Not The Only Power "One of my great problems to day comes from the glories of the 18th and 19th -century when we could say, 'By God, we can do anything we want to.' " "The difficulty of foreign affairs is that they are foreign." One result of these revolutions, especially in mass communications, is the tendency to "move the people off the land to the great depersonalized, selfish urban areas," Reston said. "I don't believe this is a hope less situation. I rather glory in the fact that no generation until this one has had the impertinence to take on. so many revolutions at once. I like that, it's rather cheeky." What Is The Answer? "The answer to this is not to give up or say Til leave it to Kennedy or somebody else' I think the answer is not less de mojracy but more democracy and honest discussion, , such as this Symposium." In the question and answer per iod following: Why won't there be a third world war? Reston: "I work on the assump tion that the Russians want to live as much as we. Also never have two such great antagonistic nations sustained for such a long length of time with so many inci dents." "The war we are going to have is the war we are having now. And this is what is so hard to under stand." What can a college student do for his country? Reston: "One thing, look ahead and see what you can about your ing and saving of money will be less fruitful because of higher taxes." . "The frontier today is stretching acorss the whole world and it is not only physical but intellectual and spiritual and I thought you would be happier and more useful if you leaped into it.".
