The meeting’s main concern was an interim report by the1 “New Directions Committee,” which stressed more organization and better financing in the party’s future. The 11-page paper outlined specific details for decen tralization, emphasis on precinct work and improved funding procedures. Munil Kater, one of the five committee members, explained that the report’s theme was to make the party “meaningful to everyday problems.” Cynthia Wooten, New Direc tions Committee chairer, declared she didn’t believe that the “responsibility of the Democratic Party stops at the election of candidates.’’ She emphasized that the report was only the committee’s first, and that more comprehensive work would be done in the future. In other business, the central committee endorsed the intent of the Uniform Residential Land lord and Tenant Act. Endorsement was also given to Gov. Tom McCall’s controversial tax reform bill after a lengthy debate.

Bill Bucy Editor A1 Phelps General Manager | On Campos Black mental health to be discussed There will be a film and talk on Black mental health from 6:30 to 10 p.m. in the EMU Thursday. The speaker will be Paul Simms of the Black Science Students Association (BSSA). The film was made in California by members of the BSSA. The film and talk will highlight problems Black people have with self identity. 1972 seems to have been a rather depressing year for Black people, according to Simms, who will attempt to give Blade students at the University some ideas on things that are happening around the world in this perspective. The BSSA has branches in many universities around the country. The BSSA is presently working to obtain financial aid for Black medical students, helping Black students obtain admission to colleges and universities and developing a world wide sickle cell anemia testing program.
