But it was absolutely asinine to believe a phone call at that hour w'onld have done him any good,’ Pleas ants said. According to Pleasants, all personnel on his staff will be re instructed on the jail’s rules nnd ‘‘We'll place more em phasis on following the rules and being careful.” Pleasants said the escape couldn't have happened In the daytime when three jailers are on duty. “The third jailer would have been able to lock them in the cellblock,” Pleasan’s said. During the escape, Kivera overpowered H ill and locked him in a cell. The second jailer, G. H. Heath, went to investigate the disturbance. He had to pass through three doors to get to the scene.

I was the only one that could recognize the two escapees. We knocked on the front door and when some one inside unlocked the door, we rushed In with our weapons drawn,“'Anthony said. According to Anthony, the two men were -in the hall. ‘•One went one way and the other went another way.

Thompson, in the faculty meeting Friday, gave the task , force a deadline of January to have all their recommendations submitted so that final decisions could be made not only in cut backs, but in other areas deal ing with academic changes. Thompson said the first portion of that report had been sub mitted and based on the report some changes had been made. He announced that the cur rent pass-fail grading system would be retained with full im plementation during the second trimester. He said full im plementation meant that with the grade a detailed narrative would be submitted to the Office of Records and Registration. He added during the next trimestqr a total evaluation as to whe ther or not this grading sys tem would continue will be un dertaken. He said it is clear that we must adapt a system that will clearly communicate Internally success or failures of the student while clearly communicating to the pub lic concerned what needs to be shown on the transcript. “We can no longer allow stu dents to remain at Shaw for ever without demonstrating sa tisfactory progress and seri ousness of purpose, for this practice is much more detri ments! than the ‘closed door’ admissions policy,” Thompson said. The current administration assumed a large amount of the debt which it is current!) eli minating, according to Har graves, “To date we have paid some $420,000 of the debt, leaving approximately $500,- r r Everything For ...

Hargraves said that the current budget was a sound one, and had it not been for the back debt Shaw would be operating “pretty close to the black at the end of the fiscal year.” In addition to new programs like the Cooperative Education program, and the University without Walls and revisions In Extension Education program,” Hargraves said. Shaw has al ready enrolled an additional 300 students for the coming trimes ter which will begin in January. The additional enrollment will > bring the student body to ap proximately 1 300. KING MEMORY tconunueo irom page 1) during the annual NEA con vention in Detroit last June. Calling for President Nixon to declare Dr. King's birthday a national holiday, the association has urged its 9,000 state and local affiliates and its 1.1 mil lion members to plan obser vances. Following passage of the NEA resolution, Dr. King's widow, Mrs. Coretta. King, met with the NEA president, Donald E. Morrison, and Samuel B. Eth ridge, NEA’s assistant exe cutive secretary for teacher rights. Excerpts of this meet ing are featured in the Jan uary issue of Today’s Ed ucation, official journal of the NEA. Mrs. King descrives the pur pose, activities and goals of the proposed Martin Luther King Memorial Center to be built in Atlanta, Ga. Designed to cover a four-block area, the center will include exhibition halls, films, books .and other mem orabilia of the black move ment in the 1900’s, and an ex tensive library, a research cen ter and teacher training pro grams in nonviolence. Regional Martin Luther King Jr. Centers both here and a broad will lie promoted. “Their primary function would be the education and training of youth particularly at the high school level, and the development of teachers to train such youths,” Mrs, King told Morrison and ’Ethridge." Asked by Morrison what schools might do to improve relations, Mrs. King replied: “Schools ought to see them - selves as laboratories in demo cracy.. ..w'e tend to segment a reas of knowledge and teach students certain information without having them understand how the information is going to be of value to them.” Distrubed by a seeming lack of interest in the current civil rights movement, Mrs. King charged that the “leadership erf this nation, and I mean the too leadership, has given civil rights a very low priority... there has been a lack of re sponse from this administra tion,...a seeming lack of under standing of the needs. We are not getting the kind of coopera tion we should have from the federal government.” In spite of this, however, Mrs. King told Morrison and Eth ridge that the great progress made by blacks in the last 20 years can be attributed to “the determination of balcks them selves to be? really free” and “cooperation from many whites of goodwill, and at times...the support of the federal govern ment.” Racism, she charged, is still deeply rooted in our cul ture, and although the younger blacks do not have to face the overt discrimination against which Dr. King fought, “chil dren still have problems...they are called names at school.” Mrs. King stressed that tne center will also concern it self with the human and civil rights of women, who constitute more than 50 percent of the nation’s population. “If more women begin to use their crea tive powers to help eradicate poverty, racism, war, then I think w'e win move along much faster. Women ought to be re presented at all levels of de cision making. With larger par ticipation by women and by the new generation of young peo ple, somehow we can effect the kinds of changes that will bring about the dream my husband spoke of,” she said. SETS JOINT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE> without “ali the rhetoric and show of muscles.” In order to take steps to ful fill his belief, Dr, Hargraves has presented on behalf of the entire University Community, a proposal to the University of Southern California that may produce a model for the na tion in Public Administration curricula and structure. In his discussion with top administra tors and the faculty of USC’s 42-year-old School of Public Administration, a two- way, three-year plan of action e merged. Hargraves seeks a mutually supported effort with USC to develop a curricula which would permit Fhaw to offer the bache lor's degree and later the mast er’s degree in Public Admin istration, He stated that be wants Shaw to offer career de velopment courses during af ter - work hours and seminars for blacks and others from dis advantaged sectors who already hold public positions, including those in elective offices, but who lack formal training in pub lic administration and manage ment. Additionally, Dr. Hargraves would like to see the Public Administration nrocram at Shaw provide a certificate program for para-professionals in the lower-levels. First year fund ing is being sought from the Dept, of Health, Education and Welfare. He proposed to USC president, Dr. John R. Hubbard, academic vice president, Milton C. KJoet zel, and Dr. E.K. Nelson, di rector of USC’s School of Pub lie Administration, that in or der to activate the program, USC's School of Public Admin istration send a full professor and two instructors to Shaw. Each would have a counterpart here. Shaw would send faculty to USC to “monitor” Its ef forts in the field. As president of the third oldest black university in America and the oldest in the South, Dr. Har graves stated, “It is our hope, with USC's help, to excite our young people about careers in Public Administration as their goals and get them out of the ‘teacher - education syn drome.”’ Hargraves continued, “We want to help the poor, the dis advantaged and the minorities become thoroughly knowledge able about administrative pro cedures in America today. This will contribute greatly to their liberation and development--a lot more than all the rhetoric and muscle-showing. “We would hope, as a result of this relationship to develop and project black perspectives from the standpoint of a black university, not as Individuals acting in the complex and some times perplexing bigness of the white society.” Dr, Hargraves said that at this time, he is not able to say whether or not Shaw Uni versity will be in a position to develop Its own School of Public Administration. How ever, he added, “If we are to earn the acceptance for our program that USC received for its first offerings, this might be a possibility.” Hargraves continued, “We first considered going the con sortium route in setting-up our program~-working with other universities in the South. But we found the strength and will ingness to work with us at USC. Now we feel that if we are as successful as we expect to be in this joint venture, Shaw will be in a position to take the initiative for the development of a consortium in Public Ad ministration with the larger uni versities in the South.” Dr. William J. Williams, member of USC’s public admin istration faculty and director of USC’s Center for Social Ac tion, feels that, “USC could get as much--prohably more-- than It gives in this relation ship.” USC and its administration, along with Hargraves and Shaw University, feel that this pro posed program for Shaw will provide the opportunity for the development of a whole new set of values vital to the rapid de segregation taking place in the South. Dr. Hargraves said, “In our dealings with USC, there has been a mutual understanding of both the capabilities and needs of both institutions and the pro posed program will be mutually supported and the benefits mu tually realized,” THE BOYERS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) he obtained his Ed.D. In Eng lish at Michigan, and did fur ther study in Admin Ist rat ion and Supervision in the summer of that year. Upon his return to St. Aug.’s in 1949, he was named Dean of the college, Acting President in 1955, and later (1956) Presi dent, a post he was to hold for ten years of growth and development of the educational curriculum at St. Augustine’s College. When asked to look back on his career and single out wiat was his most rewarding experi ence, Dr. Boyer called to mind a number of developments which were especially rewarding to him. “The successful build ing program that climaxed at my retirement, and the college's receipt of the largest grant in its history, 3 million, at the same time from the Morgan Guaranty Trust Company, along with the largest individual gift ($35,000) by the late Dr, Henry Bowden of Atlanta,” Dr. Bover pointed out. It Is interesting that Dr. J. A. Boyer should call to mind events that greatly advanced the fortunes of St. Augustine's Col lege, and to realize his satis faction in the further develop ment of the Institution with which he has long been associated. Queried on how he pictured education in today’s scheme of things, Dr. Boyer pointed out, “Education Is absolutely neces sary, and I also feel the trend toward relating education to more realistic approaches to life. Work and service are indlepensible. The whole edu cational concept was to secure culture, but you must hook this up to something, service,’ Although Dr. Boyer has been associated with a private re ligious oriented institution throughout his career, he has some thoughts about the pro posed consolidation of public universities in N.C,, and Its effect on the Black educator. Dr, Boyer stated, “There should be enough built-in provisions for Black educators, who sit in on all these panels and boards (proposed by consolidation) so that a realistic approach for those who have not had econo mic decision power through the years may figure in all cur riculum planning, etc.” He fur ther Injected that “All interests should be ldentifable at all times ir, order that the program may be truly helpful and represen tative. The automatic attrition expectancy, based upon con trolled tests shouldbe eliminat ed from any educational can cept.” (On tests such as the SAT) “I think these tests are unfair to the lower economi cally - endowed brackets, who don't have the experience, both at home ana elsewhere, for which they may beheld account able on these tests that are real ly devised for middle class stu dents and above.” Concerning the more promin ent role that Is being played In education by government on both the Federal and State levels, Dr. Boyer believes, “Federal and state government will have to work out something where anybody would be afforded the opportunity to go to college, because people are more in formed, and they have become more impatient, expecially with the bigger pieces of our g’oven ment's pie going to defense.” Dr. Boyer also has some strong feelings about the technical in stitutions. He believes, “The idea of the technical Institution is a great thing. I believe the idea could be sold more ef fectively to blacks if they could be admitted to more of the la bor unions after they got spe cialized training. If a man is refused admission to a cer tain union in his specialized trade, he w'On’t be able to se cure employment.” The issues surrounding the education world today are many and complex. Dr. James A. Boyer is concerned about those issues, and how they will af fect blacks today and in years to come. Even today, he is a consultant-staff member of the Educational Leadership and Hu man Relations Center at St. Augustine's College. The Boyer family wishes all a Merry Christmas, and asks that we pray for true brother hood and peace, both at home and abroad. RCA BACKS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) cion, force, violence, or any other form of conduct inten tionally cause the disruption of any lawful function, mission, or process of the school to rtvhich he is assigned or any %her school in the Raleigh Pub lic School System.” “A direct dart is thrown here,” continued Mr. Carson. “A kid frowning about some thing cou)" he charged with passive resisience. • The procedure for suspension was considered worse than the code. Remarks concerning the code were made by Dr. Ward, Messrs. Harold Webb, James Shepard, and Mr. Campbell. Mr, Shepard emphasized that he fa vors good student conduct. Mr. Webb indicated that the code lacked student input and that it failed to promote the merit of good conduct. The body, by a unanimous vote, disapproved of the code as h Is written but went on record as approving a stu dent code of conduct. So the body advised the president to turn the code code and the suspension rules over t.o the education committee for study and an appointment to dis cuss the matter with the School Board, January 4. A meeting was also scheduled for January 3 for hearing the committee’s report. DIVORCE IS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) It was out of the experiences of this history, he asserted, that there arose a need for a new, independent Black political di rection. Especially crucial was the need, he said, to let go of a Democratic party which has a documented history of mis use to Black people. As long as Black people have entrusted their political future to such groups, he explained, there has been nothing but a continual string of betrayls. Tills path has often been blaxed with the help of such organi zations as the Klu Klux Klan, the Redshirts and others, and has also adopted a basic ap proach of white supremacy. Since the 19th century, he said in countering some popular o plnion, Democratic attitudes have not really changed. Like their Republican counterparts, they have been involved In a number of enactments such as poll tax, (white-only)primaries, literacy tests and grandfather clauses which have all beer, le gal manipulations designed to disenfranchise Black voters whenever they began to pose a threat. This same mentality re appears today, Attv, Reliance said, in the form of such le gal manipulations as laws bann ing council ward elections to the cities, single shot campaigning and providing lor ‘number ed seats’ in the state legis lature. In spite of all this, however, Black people have remained wedded to white political mani pulators, foremost of which is BARBERS DISTRIBUTE CHRISTMAS BASKETS - The Capital City Bar bers Association and Barbers’ Auxiliary met Sunday, December 19, 1971 at Macon’s Barber Shop to distribute Christmas cheer baskets to families in the Raleigh area.

The Black vote has often been de cisive--such as in the recent election of Gov. Bob Scott whose 190,000 votes from Black vo ters was over twice the mar gin of 85,000 by which he won the election. In return, nothing has been given. “The Democratic Party,” said Atty. Ballance, “has been running this state for a good long time now. And for a good long time, w : e as members of the Democratic party have been helping them to stay in office and stay to power.” » Noting this long unpaid debt, Atty. Ballance returned to his marriage analogy and said of the state democrats, “They’ve abandoned us and are guilty of non-support.” “The structure of an inde pendent party offers the best solution for making the Black vote an independent vote, ” Atty.
