Aside from his teaching-lectur ing duties at Tech, he is also director of the Southern Rural Project, a consultant on Rural America with the OEO, and an adviser to VISTA on Black His - tory and Culture. In the first of Free Univer sity Lectures conducted by Peace on Monday, Oct. 7, in the Architecture Auditorium, Peace delivered a lively ad - dress on, “The Negro In A merica; Why We Are Where We Are,” before an almost ali-white audience. The major portion of his talk was devoted to a sketchy his tory of black people in this country. He laid particular stress on Marcus Garvey’s back-to-Africa mevement in the 19205, the nonviolent movement for integration in the early 19605, and the discrediting of non-violence in the wake of the Birmingham church bomb ing which claimed the lives of four little black girls on Sept. 15, 1963. Peace ended his lecture with a discussion of the controversies over strategies to attain black freedom. The Tech audience was visib ly stirred by the talk and by a question and answer of an In dian student: “Why is there no guerilla movement among blacks for liberation In Ameri ca?” Peace’s answer was that the minority position of blacks in America prevented the form ation and success of a classi cal guerilla movement, settled the students back into their seats. He discussed the civil rights movement from the time Ne groes were brought to this coun try as slaves up until the pre sent. Peace is married to the form er Miss Clementine Harris of Raleigh, and they are the pa rents of a son, V.'llliam H. H. Peace, IV. He began teaching at Georgia Tech In Sept, of this year. Peace formerly was employ ed by the Sharecroppers’ Fund, a division of OEO. BISHOP SHAW (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) Payton ofColumbia,b.C«, pres ident of Benedict College and one of the chief organizers of the National Committee of Ne gro Churchmen, explained “Our definition of Black Pow er is the power to participate.” He termed the interdenomina tional black coalition “an effort to relate to the Black Power movement without adopting a philosophy of separation or black supremacy.” The NCNC was formed in 1966 but was not formally organized until last November at a meet ing in Dallas. The organiza tion includes nearly every black church in America as well as black churchmen in most white denominations. Chairman of the Board of Directors is the Rev. Dr. M. L. Wilson, pastor of Harlem’s Convent Avenue Bap tist Church, with the Rev. J. Metz Rollins of White Plains, N. Y., as executive director. Bishop Shaw, a pioneer and leader in the black ecumenical power movement, will preside over the three - day NCNC convocation. As presiding bi shop of the Second Episcopal District of the African Method ist Episcopal Zion Church, he heads the New York, Cape Fear, Western New York, Bahama Is lands, and Jamaica, West In dies, Conferences. Black his torian Dr. Vincent Harding of Atlanta’s Spellman College will deliver the keynote address. EARLY CHAMP (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) was Ln opposition, but his col leagues as well. However, despite the clash of wills with his associates and critics - who did not always agree with his methods and tactics for securing equality for black citizens - he was always lauded ior his victories. Unequivocally not a crowd follower, Leavell was renown ed for backing unpopular stands. As an activist with the Ne gro leader Relations le?.gue, which he helped organized In 1940 - with his co-partner in the Crusader enterprises, Jo seph Jefferson, and Chicago Courier publisher Frederick P. Wall, Lea veil’s confrontations with the evils that currently plague society sometimes were physical as well as verbal. Among his legacies to the struggle are such positive re sults as hiring of Black driv ers by one national brewery, causing others to follow - one exception, which steadfastly re sisted the move, reportedly, never financially recovered from the snowballing effect of Leavell’s crusade. In addition, he was instru mental in getting interest rates charged by pawnbrokers in ghetto communities lowered; the hiring of Black drivers on trucks oi national bread com panies; and the employ ment of Black women at national meat packing companies. An ulcer helped contribute to Leavell’s agressive manner of outspoken remarks, Born in Louisville, Kv., where he received his elemen tary and high school training, he attended Fisk University, where lie played football and was a member of the Fisk Jubi lee Singers. He came to Chi cago in 1931, and among other civic pursuits, served as a member of the Washington Park YMCA board of directors. Survivors include the widow, the former Miss Dorothy Gon der of Pine Bluff, Ark., two daughters, Genice, 2, and An tonia, 3; four children by a previous marriage - Peggy, of Palo Alto, Calif,; Judith, Balm 111, and Walter, all of Chicago; two brothers, George, Dayton, Ohio; and Arthur, Louisville, Ky. FULLER ISSUES (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE 26th meeting mentioned In the story that for the black vot er, party loyalty Is a dead is st”. I feel that no black per son should vote for any can didate on any level strictly on the basis of party loyalty to a political party. “It is my personal belief that the black voter must make his choice based on each can didate’s stated views on the is sues which touched black peo ple’s lives. “I further believe that black people ln North Carolina have a tremendous stake particularly In local level elections. I think that these elections county commissioners, school board members, mayors, etc. --will determine to a large ex tent how much progress will be made ln the lives of low-income black people,” Mr. Fuller con cluded.

Symphony Appears At Saint A&g. A soloist who caused quite a stir in the Capital City last session re-appeared in Raleigh with the North Carolina Symphony, October 30, on the campus of Saint Augustine’s College. She is the talented violinist Setsuko Nagata, one of the most popular guest soloists to appear with the Symphony in years. “She is a professional,” summed up Symphony Director Benjamin Swalin. “Herperfor mances are consistently good no matter whether it is rehear sal only 30 minutes after her plane flight from New York or during an actual concert." During the Wednesday concert, at Emery Health and Fine Arts Building, at 8:00 p.m., Miss Nagata was featured playing the Bruch Concerto No, I in G. Minor for violin and orchestra.
