"BLACK ACTORS ARE A COMMODITY" ? J. WATSON What's the whole Black scene on television coming to? Is It simply a "phase" which will be tossed aside when the net works and audiences eventually tire of it? Or will it grow in depth and image perception in years to come? Toss these ques tions at James Watson, young Black actor who recently guest starred' in the "Black Jade" seg ment of Universal Television's "The V'rginian" series, and the answers are worth listening to. "Despite what your emotions lead you to feel," Watson says emphatically, "you have to look at the overall situation objec tively. Black acton are a com modity like anything else, though for a long while their 'resale value' was in doubt "Thus far they've had, tor the most part, bad, insensitive scripts shoved at them, but we're coming to the end of that era. Producers haven't really known how to relate and depict true Black situations; they didn't know where truth and fantasy separated. As far as I can tell, there'll still be maybe a year or two more of this kind of floundering before we enter the next phaae." That "next phase;" according to Watson, will be a kind oi anything written by Black writ ers is O.K. period and he sees it as an unfortuante, though understandable, circumstance. "But naturally," he continues, "that isn't the answer either. Perhaps after that well enter a really meaningful era where Black actor* who've been in the business a long time will become producers and writers and turn out material where people can be depicted aa people ? period. Maybe then we can project mil itancy regardless of race; iden tity for the sake of Individual identity, not because of a par ticular racial stereotype. "Dose the Black actor owe any responsibility to the Black com munity, including the militant factions? Of course he does, though he must seek a compro mise in the really meaningful sense of the word. And compro mise isn't implied to mean either 'giving in' to militant Blacks or 'copping out* to the white estab lishment It's simply trying to find a calm and intelligent meet ing ground that is non-emo "I can see where an outspok en, militant' minority of Blacks should speak out ? even ar rogantly ? against a lot that's going on in oar country today. But when it comes to television. GREENSBORO MAN MEETS ADMIRAL ? MB2 James George of Greensboro meets the Navy's highest ranking chaplain, RAdm James W. Kelly, Chief of Navy Chaplains.

DIFFERENCE IS MYTH, SATS AJtT PROFES SOR IK STUDY Winston-Salem, N. C. ? The chairman of the physical educa tion department of North Caro lina A&T University in Greens boro last week refuted studies which have been made compar ing the physical differences in Negroes and whites. Dr. Ray Moore said he thinks differences in the physical characteristics of Negroes and whites we a myth, especially the idea t^at they effect athletic activity. "l.->_e itself is a myth," he said. Moore spoke at Wake Forest University to an audience of physical education majors. His lecture was sponsored by the physical education department of Wake Forest. He cited nine studies made from the 1800s to the present, and in each study, he said, he thinks the people studied did not represent ? a wide enough sample of the population. At the beginning of his talk he said that he has concluded from the nine studies that much more work remains to be done before any definite statement can be made about fundamental physical differences between Negroes and whites. Some of the nine studies con cluded that Negroes are superior to whites in weight, but not In height. Negroes were found to it wouldn't be fair for a very vocal minority to supress what is in reality a somewhat more moderate majority' in terms of the type o t Black image pro jected on TV screens. "If true honesty is to be achieved on film," Watson con cludes, "It must be approachsd soberly. Not at a heated bar* gaining table, but with the Black community's own *sflssrt ma jority* tat mind." act as security guards and help control traffic lor quick pas sage of the admiral's vehicle. Meeting senior officer* is not something new to George, who spent his first duty station aboard the admiral's barge at Commander, Anti - Submarine Warfare Force, Pacific, in San Diego. He has been at NSA, Da Nang, since March 1968. George was graduated from Northwest Guilford High in Greensboro in 1966. He joined the Navy Nov. 22, 1966. Since the beginning of his tour in Vietnam, he has extended here for two six-month periods be yond the normal 12-month tour of duty. be in better physical shape than whites in one study, but the Negroes had a higher mortality rate. One study concluded that Ne groes are superior to whites in some sports and inferior to whites in other sports. Negroes were once thought to be superior in such track event* as high jumping, sprints and weight events. But recent Olym pic competitions have shown whites beating Negroes in events thought to belong to the Ne gro athletes. In those same Olympics Negroes beat whites in traditionally strong white events like distance running. The superiority of various athletes in different racial groups is probably more due to psychological and environ mental factors than to basic physical differences; Moore said. He suggested that studies look more closely at training meth ods than to racial differences. "Performance in sports is a re sult of training more so than of so-called native ability," he said.
