who has b e e n
d ire cto r at Unthank Park fo r two
and one-half years. He attend­
ed C lark College in Vancouver,
Washington and has been work­
ing with the youth of Albina for a
number of years.
Ron is looking to the parents
and adults to become more in­
volved to help make a better
park and k n o w what is hap­
pening— what is going on in their
park.
We w ill have a great spring
in th e ir heads, not ON them.”
She complimented the Lincoln
High School group, called t h e
Young, Balck and Gifted, on the
musical numbers they presented
beginning with th e ir fir s t selec­

“ L if t
Every Voice and Sing.”
M iss Simmons m i g h t be
characterized as being the fiery
orator type of speaker, inspiring
people to action, and her humor
broueht down the house several
tim es. She concluded with se­
veral stories ,one ot them about
the
woman who told a black
woman “ Now I think 1 understand
what you want - you want a Diece
of the pie.” The black woman
answered, “ Last year we would
have been satisfied with a Diece
of the pie - but this year we want
the recipe.”
