PAGE 110 NORTH PARK COLLEGI NEW FRIDAY, APRIL 21, 1961
Possibilities Are Unlimited! CLUB NEWS
The News proclaimed in this space several issues ago that there is
a social problem at North Park. The problem was defined to be an
atmosphere which inhibits self expression and an adequate level of
communication between persons, an atmosphere which creates "walls"
between people. The problem manifests itself in cliquishness, lonely
people, and a sorrowfully small amount of dating.
Since that article two events have taken place which are indicative
of what we interpret as an encouraging trend.
The election which involved our campus a few weeks ago with its
"participation & communication" slogans demonstrated a surprisingly
general interest in improving the social situation. Both of the major
tickets tried 1 less than successfully) to demonstrate a thorough under-standing
of the problem, and to pose solutions to it. Both sides apparently
agreed completely on the existence and the nature of the problem!
One night during the campaign, while crowds were rallying outside,
some of the more thoughtful gathered in a student discussion led and
initiated by Richard Carlson and Fred Cervin, and moved toward general
agreement upon the nature of the problem. Students whose voices are
not often heard publicly made contributions and discovered how common
their problems and needs are. If the enthusiasm that was shown at that
meeting could be seen and felt by all the students who are interested
in the problem, there is no telling what kind of exciting change could
be wrought on this campus.
And with varying levels of understanding, almost everybody is
becoming interested in the problem. Some argue that what is needed
is a more effective social calendar, more informal parties, more oppor-tunity
for casual relationships. Some see hope in the introduction of
special interest clubs and activities, where people can meet in pursuit
of a goal outside of themselves. Others look to improved facilities as
the solution to the problem, a new student union.
Each of these is needed but no one of them is basic. What is
basic is a widespread understanding and appreciation of the problem.
This kind of understanding should precede concentrated plans for legis-lating
activities or facilities into existence because without a feeling
for the meaning of the proposed activities and facWties, they will not
help at all. People may not join the clubs and may not go to the student
union.
The immediate problem, then, is how to bring about widespread
understanding and appreciation of the problem, agreement on the ends
to be attained. How can we begin to make people aware of their essential
similarities?
To thoroughly understand people and ourselves is maturity itself,
and we are not mature. To raise the level of understanding, to raise the
level of maturity to such a plane that it will make a real difference in
our goal. It would not be so difficult to attain.
But if we are to communicate, we must begin with communication
about communication. We must be willing to discuss our problems of
communication with others.
Maybe a program would be helpful, organized discussions of specific
problems on the order of the one already presented. But by far the
most important level is the personal level. People must be willing to
overlook the differences that separate them.
Some scoff. They say that the "problem" we shout about is "normal."
But this objection falls short because it implies a satisfaction with
what is normal. Our vision is justified, though it never be realized.
The possibilities are unlimited. The energy that could be released
by the more effective interaction of persons could change the whole
character of the school. The vision of a community where people are
afraid neither of each other nor of themselves is well worth working
toward. D. E.
WORLD AFFAIRS
Birch Deserves Objective View
By Richard W. Carlson
Strung across the main street of Pampa, Texas, was a banner
reading HELP IMPEACH EARL WARREN. Pampa is not a large city and
a small town cry for the impeachment of a high government official
is not a matter for grave national concern. Yet the crescendoing voice
of the John Birch Society heard in varied places such as Pampa has
awakening the serious concern of those who quake at the slightest
unravelling of the "lunatic fringe."
John Birch, during his life and death, never bent with contrary
winds. Son of a Baptist minister he is remembered at Mercer University
in Georgia for his high academic standing and for leading student move-ments
suppressing mildly liberal trends. During World War II he was
highly decorated for his service in combat intelligence in China. Ten
days after V-J Day he was slain by a Chinese Communist Patrol. Though
his commanding officer states that "Militarily John Birch brought about
his own death," Robert Welch, a retired Massachusetts candy manu-facturer,
claims that John Birch was "the first victim of the cold war"
and that his death was kept secret by certain communist dupes in the
government.
No dupe himself, Welch, like the society's namesake bends not
with the wind unless it blows freshly from the blue Pacific across
the majestic Rockies and free plains to the Atlantic shores upon
which patriots shed their blood for Americanism. Welch discovered
in government records the story of Birch and in December 1958
formed the society around his memory. Until now the John Birch
Society has been semi-secret, growing slowly to its present strength
of 1-100 chapters each of 20-30 members in each of 34 states. Its
present publicity stems from some statements made by leader Welch
in his privately circulated book, "The Politician." The most explosive
accusation therein calls Dwight Eisenhower "a dedicated conscious
agent of the Communist conspiracy." Though Welch has denied
making the statement in public, the statement in private and the
society's "agenda for action" which demands the impeachment of
Chief Justice Earl Warren, the exposition and boycott of all goods
made behind the Iron Curtain, the abolishment of the Federal in-come
tax and the strengthening of the House Un-American Activities
Committee have raised concern. (Continued in column 2)

Birch—
Besides the attack on Eisenhower,
the Society has labeled former Pres-ident
Truman and late Secretary
of State J. Foster Dulles as "Com-munist
tools." The strongest attack
is against Warren who, according
to "documentation" has "voted 92
per cent of the time in favor of
Communists and subversives."
For the accusations the Society
has been attacked on the Senate
floor. Some have called for Con-gressional
investigation. For its
principles it has been defended in
the same chamber and the Society
has stated it would welcome Con-gressional
investigation.
Beyond the Senate hall, reac-tions
have varied. Some have re-called
Joe McCarthy and witch
hunting tactics. Others have ex-pressed
warm affirmation. One
woman writes: "Thank God . . . I
was beginning to think our patri-otic
heroes of the past had spilled
their blood in vain."
It is probably in vain to presume
that the Federal income tax will
be revoked or Earl Warren im-peached.
The cry for Americanism
is a constant in our societal struc-ture
and may now seem more ob-noxious
to liberal elements because
it is much more organized and con-tagious.
Yet is it to be feared as an
element destructive to American
fabric?
The John Birch Society is at
present only a movement a little
to the right of Louis XIV. It is
not a threat to the security and
welfare of the United States un-less
the former is identified with
the welfare state. Implicit in lib-eralism
is not the liberty to exist
alone. A healthy liberalism evokes
reaction from the farther left and
farthest right. Ultimately the
John Birch Society may or may
not be a healthy addition to the
society. Yet it deserves to be rec-ognized
with patient objectivity.
Those who exist so maturely in
the twentieth century that they
scoff at the patriotism of the
Revolutionary period base their
atacks against the John Birch
Society on not much more than
untutored spleen.

DR. BYRD REPORTS FROM AFRICA
Uganda Puts Tranquility Above Self-Government
By Dr, Robert 0. Byrd
An election is a lens. All of the forces of society are focused on one
point; the task and the act of choosing the person or the people who
will control a monopoly of the legal right to use force and violence, with
the various responsibilities and functions that flow from that monopoly
A properly conducted election results in agreement and accommodation
among the various forces of society. An election that is not properl:,
conducted, or conducted in a society that is improperly prepared, will
result in increased apprehension, friction and even conflict, under pres-sure
of reaching agreement when the basis of agreement does not exist
Uganda has just had an election.
The election went smoothly, produced agreement rather than dis-order;
therefore you probably did not hear about it.
The basic consensus here was reflected in the fact that the two
major political parties had few real differences between them, and each
attempted to minimize its actual difference,. The result: One party got
a majority of the popular vote (the Uganda Peoples Congress—or UPC),
and the other (the Democratic Party—or DP) got a slight majority of
the eighty-two directly elected seats in the legislature.
The two minor parties, one reputedly financed from the other side
of the iron curtain, were shut out, except for one seat whose winner is
now bargaining with the two major parties to see which one he will join
Only two independents won, both from largely Asian constituencies, and
they will doubtless align themselves with one or the other of the two
leading parties.
Election day was an interesting occasion, which we experienced in
one of the more remote mountain areas where the men bicycle 30 miles
to the nearest village once a month, perhaps, and the women go year
in and year out, child-birth after child -birth, without getting into the
village, unless they should be seriously ill and require special medical
treatment. Two women in this District gave birth, one of them to twins.
while in the line waiting to vote. In both cases the women went on to
vote before returning to their thatched huts.
In general, interest in the election was high. A high percentage of
the eligible voters had registered in most districts, and as high as 95.8";
of the voters in one District came out to vote. In the constituency where
I was observing, over 32,104 out of the 34,043 registered voters actually
cast their ballots. This meant, in many cases, walking ten miles, over a
series of hills, on a rainy day.
The things that are uppermost in people's minds, as indicated by
campaign speeches, questions asked of the candidates by their constitu-ents,
and the election results, are the following, seemingly in the order
indicated:
1( Desire for tranquility. We are here in close contact with the trials
of the Congo. One of the most troublesome charges for the UPC
to face was the claim taht the red in the UPC flag stood for the
blood that would flow if the UPC came to power, as the UPC would
try to force all the Asians and Europeans to leave Uganda at once;
a policy which the UPC took great pains to disavow.
2) Tribalism. This evidenced itself in the Baganda boycott of the
elections because they considered the elections a threat to their
tribal position, in voting for and against candidates along strictly
tribal lines in some constituencies, and in the manner in which
religious divisions here take on a tribal aspect where earlier tribal
identities are breaking down.
31 Economic considerations. Earnestly discussed everywhere were
such questions as land tenure, doubling the workers' minimum
wage from 75 to 150 shillings ($20) a month, conditions affecting
the cattle industry, stopping the decline in prices received for the
peasant cultivator's cash crops (largely cotton and coffee), and
the introduction of new cash crops.
4) Raising the general standard of living and public services: more
and better education, medical services, roads and water supplies.
5) Independence and self-government.
There are several reasons for the down-grading of the self-govern-ment
issue in Uganda.
In the first place, tribalism is stronger and more entrenched in
Uganda than in much of the rest of Africa and, with the example Of
Ghana before them, tribal leaders see self-government as a threat to
their position and a vehicle by means of which uncouth commoners can
challenge their "legitimate" leadership.
A second reason for some hesitation about self-government is con-fusion
concerning its meaning. One of the candidates told me that, in
the vernacular language of his constituency, the word for self-govern-ment
is the same as the word for disobedience, a pattern of behavior
strongly condemned in that society. His people had some difficulty under-standing
that self-government and rebellion, anarchy and treason are
not necessarily the same thing. To some, the idea of self-government
means throwing out the Europeans and Asians (Indians. To others the
concept of self-government simply means more high offices, with their
status and perquisites, for Africans.
With this desire to protect established institutions, with this con-

fusion concerning the meaning of
self-government, with the anarchic
example of the Congo next door,
with the general understanding that
the British are not really trying
to hang on in Uguanda longer than
required by an orderly exodus, to-gether
with the high value that
Africans here are placing on peace
and tranquility and economic and
social development, self-govern-ment
is not a burning passion. This
does not mean that self-govern-ment
is unimportant. It is impor-tant:
but here it is not an exclusive
preoccupation. It takes its place
along with other values in the
scheme of things.
All of this could change, of course,
and quickly.
Politics is movement and an
elections is a lens that takes a
high-speed photograph of political
forces as they exist at a given mo-ment.
All we can say is that the
recent campaign and election
showed the preoccupations and
value structure described. An ill-considered
move by the British, say
in the matter of land tenure or in
the style or timing of negotations
with the political parties or tradi-tional
rulers, could quickly lead the
African to feel that peace, tran-quility,
the preservation of his tra-ditional
institutions and economic
and social advance all depended
upon the African getting the reins
of government in his owns hands
immediately, and by any means
necessary or available.

Vikings Bow To Mini Batsmen
Ted Ecker rounds third base on Art Bowmen's double in the fifth
inning of the season's inaugural tilt against the Chicago Illini on April 13.
One bad inning ruined North Park's 1961 baseball opener on Thursday.
April 13, at the athletic field when a tough Chicago flint team defeated
coach Royner Greene's squad, 13-3.
LIIC gained single runs in the
first and third frames off the
Vikings' starting hurler, Joe Man-go.
A two-run third inning by
North Park, however, put the
Vikings back into the game. Sec-ond
baseman Jim Anderson led
off with a single to center field
and center-fielder Ted Ecker fol-lowed
with a walk. "Skeets" Bow-men,
left-fielder and clean-up
hitter, then cleared the bases
with a long triple into left-center
field. The inning ended without
any further scoring.
Coach Greene, taking precautions
to protect Mango's arm in the early
season cold weather, inserted Gene
Bobs as pitcher in the fourth in-ning.
Bobs hurled effectively in
that inning, but the roof fell in
during the next frame. A sudden
collapse in the Blue and Gold de-fense,
coupled with Boba's wildness,
