We are facing, not only a generation gap between ages, but a wide gap w ith in society its e lf. We, of course, cannot p re d ict th e future , b u t only hope fo r a fa r better system of liv in g fo r th e days and months to come. We need to think about what we’ re doing a n d not so m u c h w h a t we have done, because you can’ t go back and mend the wrong, only pray that it doesn’ : hap pen again and do better. People used to ca r e about themselves and a litt le m ore about other people, but now you find about one out of every five seems as if he feels hurt o r e v e n ca re sa b o u th lsfrle n d s o r associates. Some people ca ll it coldness, others ca ll it stubborness oi j u s t selfish ness. People tend to think, "W h y should I do this fo r him? He wouldn’ t do it fo r m e " , oi ju s t say, "T h e y don’ t care so why should I?” We a lw a y s think negatively, never posi tiv e ly . Unless we try to change our citie s or our ways, this soci ety of o u rs w illd e m o lis h c o m - p I e t e I y into s o m e t h in g e x tie m e ly ugly. People are suffering, starvin g, and dying and we only seem to be saying we’ re s o rry , b u t ju s t being s o rry w on't do at a ll, because y o u ca n 't keep adding to an endless situa tion . You m u s t save it . Yes, we are quite uncertain of what the re st of 1972 holds fo r us, but 1 s in c e re ly hope fo r w a rm e r days of com m uni cation and reassurance that we a l l s t i l l h a v e " c o n - sciences” . F re e prenatal care classes w ill be offered at Emanuel Hospital beginning Monday, F ebru ary 7, between 7 and 8 pan. Classes w ill be open to a ll expectant parents, regardless of where they plan to have the baby de live re d . T he series of fou r classes w ill meet on succeeding Mon day evenings each week in the N u rsing A rts Laboratory of the Emanuel School of N u r sing, across the street from the main hospital. The course w ill emphasize n u tritio n , emotional and physical devel opment, labor and d e liv e ry , baby care, growth and devel opment. There w ill be a film and a tou r of the Emanuel m a te rn ity departm ent, in cluding a look at "ro o m in g - in ” fa c ilitie s ottered at the hospital.

W L E C H Rl Mays was the speukei this week fo the annual Mcntview Le cturesh ip of Moniview Boulevard P r e s b y te r ia n Church, 1980 | , M ays, - long-time leader in c iv il rig h ts and a frien d of the late Rev. D r. M a rtin Luther King, J i ., expects tlie struggle fo r humin rig hts to go on indefinitely "because you’ re dealing not with angels but with hum ans." A problem he sees with the radical movements is that they expect too much change and are d isillu sio n e d . "They don't understand the human nature and the sinfulness in m an’ s h e a rt," says May s. Mays believes individuals and churches could he doing m ore to advance human r ights causes but he puts m ost of (lie bui len on tlie individual. "W h .it is the chu rch- la m the church. Each individual is the church. Each ¡wi sun has to decide w heie t<> go w ith his own conscience ami his own soul. If you look aioum l th e ie 's always something to do.

As an org an izatio n, the church could do m ure and should, he believes. " D ie ch u ich pieaches a c e rta in gospel -b i otherhoud ami the latherhoud ot G u l.

Violence advocates don't get such un i ve rsa l a p p ro v a l." M ays ti aced the beginnings of the human rig h ts move m ent, perta in ing to blacks. He believes it s ta lle d with the fo im a tlo n of the National A ssociation of Colored People (NAACP) around 1910 and the N ational Urban League. In 1954 the Supreme C o urt stru c k down school seg le gation and during the 1950s there were bus boycotts. " I n the '60s th e ie were dem onstrations by black stu dents, D r .
