College Students Riot In Houston, Texas MI’S VISIT MUDDLED Police, Students Hurt On Campus HOUSTON (UPI) - Students firing rifles and shotguns from darkened dormitories at a pre dominantly Negro university battled more than 650 police today. Rifle squads of officers finally stormed the dormitories and arrested nearly 500 stu dents. Three policemen and one stu dent were shot in the night of violence at Texas Sort hern Uni versity. One of the officers was not expected to live. Police besieged the campus for more than an hour before a squad of 60 to 70 riflemen, advancing 20 yards at a time infantry-style, finally rushed up to Lanier and Bruce Halls on the TSU campus. They smashed down dorrs with fire axes and shot locks off doors to get at the students. Officers said they found a shotgun, three 22-caliber rifles and two Molotov cocktails along with a length of chain in the dorms. ONE CRITICALLY WOUNDED The wounded were policemen Raymond G. Blaylock, 37; Louis Kupa, 25; and Allen Dale Dug ger, 32; and Morris English, 22, a student. Kupa, shot in the head, was In critical condition at a hospi tal.

PALMER Executive Secretary, North Carolina Teachers Association WHAT HAPPENED? When the 86th Delegate Assemble of the North Carolina Teachers Association (NCTA), convened on March 16 and 17, 1967, it was faced with one of the most critical issues of its history- that of the merging of the NCTA and the North Carolina Education Association (NCEA) Irregardless of what some have said, the delegates received for their very first viewing, a copy of the proposed plan of merger which was sent forth from the Liaison committee and the NCTA Board of Directors. During the business session in which this plan was to be voted upon, additional copies were distributed to those who had not received a copy. This meant, that prior to the business session, NCTA members had never, at any time, had an opportunity to react to the proposed plan or to recommend changes. This was not a planned strategy, but the result of an unfortunate situation In which the liaison committee, after meeting for two years, could not come up with any type of plan until a few days before the 86th Con vention convened, HAVE OUR LEADERS SOLD US OUT? The news media and other releases report that the pro posed plan of merger was jointly approved by the liaison committee and the beards of directors of both organizations. This remains for interpretation after a close look at what happened. Terms for the proposed plan of merger were established on the basis of a majority vote of the members present, rather than a majority vote of the delegates from each as sociation, Thai is to say, for example a motion was made that the name of the new organization be the North Carolina Education Association, tec. (the status). Seven members of the NCEA liaise® team were present and six NCTA team Tim bers (there are 8 members tram each association).

(PHOTO BY BILLY WHXTTED, FAIRMONT). Jealousy is Said To Boost WomenToAid Black Power DETROIT (NPI) - The ‘ ‘black power” Idea is an outgrowth of Negro women's sexual jealousy, a prominent Negro psychiatrist has reported. Dr. Alvin Poussalnt, assis tant professor of psychiatry, Tufts University School of Med icine, Boston said sexual con flict was “a central Issue” in the Negro’s desire to “get the whites out” of the civil rights movement. Negro women were even more vehement than Negro men In wanting whites put out of the movement, he said. •'Tire Negro girls were often resentful and jealous of the at tention which Negro men showed to the white girls, and vice versa/' the psychiatrist ex plained. These Negro women therefore became the “strong est supporters of exclusive black consciousness.” To a lesser extent, “the Ne gro males were resentful of fSee JEALOUSY. P 2) Cassius' Appomamo Me re In A Cloudy Condition Contrary to information that appeared in the press both this week and last week that All Muhammad (Cassius Clay) would appear in this area this weekend, Minister Kenneth X (Murray) told the CAROLINIAN that he was Informed by the Muslim minister (Clay) that the trip had not been cleared and therefore he would not come to the area, as announced. According to Minister Ken neth X he is in charge of the mosque in Durham and also ar ranges for all the meeting held in Raleigh. The Raleigh meet ings are held at the Bloodworth Street YMCA, every Sunday. The Durham meetings are held tn the mosque, located on S. Roxboro St. Minister Kenneth X said that the area was on All Muhammad the area was on All Muham mad’s agenda and he had rea son to believe that he would be coming sometime in the near future.- The minister attribut ed the uncertainty of his visit to the planning of his defense, EDITOR’S NOTE: The treatise below Is being printed in the hope that persons Interested in the merger of the NCTA and the NCEA will have first hand in formation as to where the matter stands.

In the charge, which was brought against him, due to his refusal to serve in the army. The CAROLINIAN called Clay’s Chicago office and was told that he was not In and they did not know when he would be coming In. He was reported as being in Miami, Fla., just before press time Wednesday, An effort to reach the person, or persons, responsible for re leasing the Information, that has appeared In the press, as to his coming here, was made by the CAROLINIAN, but to no avail. Minister X had no knowledge of the source of the informa tion and had no idea who had been authorized to release such information. A story out of Houston, Tex as, released Wednesday, said that Clay’s lawyer had a fav orable decision. Cassius Clay may use Presi dent Johnson’s remarks on the draft at the former heavyweight champion’s trial on a charge of refusing induction into the (See OLA v P. Z) NCEA members voted for the name along with one or two from the NCTA, thereby giving a majority vote. All of the terms were established by this majority vote procedure, although the vote ratio differed on each issue. When the proposed plan was sent to the NCTA Board of Directors, the board was admonished, that it did not have the privilege of altering or changing the plan, that the leadership of NCTA had pledged to the NCEA leadership, that the plan would be approved by the NCTA board and recommended to the NCTA Delegate Assembly. The Board was then given the al ternative of approving or rejecting the plan. It is the writer's personal deduction, that the board members felt as did the writer, that the delegate assembly would discuss the terms; so the board approved, what in essence was not the plan, but the idea of sending the plan on to the delegates, (although the minutes simple read "approved,* ) No the leadership has not "Sold the membership out.*’ When the merger proposal came before the delegate as sembly a motion was passed, that the proposal be discussed item by item. The delegates began with item one - the Name. Much debate ensued. Many suggestions were offered. Item 2 - Effective Date of Merger - was readily agreed to without debate, and Item 3 - Officers of the Association - was open for discussion. WTien recommendations for change were of fered, the chair directed the delegates to alternatives of accepting or rejecting the merger proposal, but the assembly could not alter or change the proposals. The delegates, then, voted to accept the proposals as a progress report and re ferred the plan back to the liaison committee for changes and more definite terms. Up to that time the only group from the NCTA which had had an opportunity to discuss the plan had beer, the liaison committee. The chair asked the delegates to take the plan back to their local units and review it, send ing any suggestions to him, or the NCTA office. fSeTFALMIIt. P. 8> The man who was denied his seat in the Georgia legislature for expressing his dissenting feeling over the Vietnam war will speak In the Emery Health and Fine Arts Center, on the campus of St. Augustine's Col lege, at 6:30 p. m. Julian Bond, who was quite active In the organizing of the Committee on Appeal for Human JULIAN BOND Rights, the Atlanta University Center, a militant student or ganization, and the Student Non- Violent Coordinating Commit tee, jjov the base for Black Power propoganda, will be the guest of the Senior Class of St. Aug.

While with SNCC, he directed the organi zation’s photography, printing and publicity departments. His works with SNCC took him to Civil Rights drives and voter registration campaigns in Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Arkansas. Rep. Bond was first elected to a seat created by reappor tionment in the Georgia House of Representatives in 1965, but was prevented from taking of fice in January 1966, by mem bers of the legislature who ob jected to his statements about the war in Viet Narn. After winning a second elec tion in February, 1966 - to fill his vacant -a special House committee again voted to bar him from membership in the legislature. Mr. Bond won a third elec tion in November 1966 and in De cember, 1966, the United States Supreme Court ruled unani mously that the Georgia House had erred in refusing him his seat. On January 9, 1967, Bond of ficially began his duties as a member of the Georgia House of Representatives as his oath of office had been administered.
