Masterworks of Chinese
and Japanese art are now
on view at the Portland Art
Museum in the recently
opened Asian Wing.
John
Yeon. distinguished
West
Coast designer, has created a
setting that allows each
object to be immediately
accesible to the viewer.
Ming Dynasty furniture
provides the first focal point
in the new gallery.
Mrs.
M arjery Hoffman Smith of
San Francisco, who con
tributed a large portion of
the funds to match a grant
from the National Endow
ment for the Arts awarded
for the installation project,
also made it possible for
the museum to purchase a
Ch'urang. a Chinese couch,
dating from the early 16th
century.
The superb piece
demonstrates Chinese wood
craftsmanship at its finest.
Other pieces of Ming furni­
ture that are shown with the
couch include two chairs, a
library table and a pair of
cabinets lent by Mrs. Smith
and two chairs lent by an
anonymous collector.
A second major loan is a
collection of 17th and 16th
century Japanese porcelains,
also from an anonymous
collector, to be shown at the
museum for an indefinite
period. The Ming Furniture
and the porcelains, on public
in Portland for the first time,
join the Portland A rt Mu­
seum's permanent collection
of Japanese and Chinese art.
Among important works are
two early bronze pieces, a
ritual vessel from the Shang
Dynasty, a ritual bell from
the Early Chou Dynasty and
a pre Han carved wooden
horse.
Chinese ceramics,
Japanese screens, and se­
lections from the Mary An
drews I^idd Collection of
Japanese Prints are also on
C o u n ty S h e r iff

areas, with each area having
a team of from 20 to 40
officers and specialists such
as detectives and juvenile
officers.
Team members
would be assigned according
to economic and social fac­
tors of each area.
A support team of special
ists would be on call.
Officers are encouraged to
become a part of the com
munitv where they work.
Brown sees this aspect of the
program as a type of crime
prevention.
“I believe law
enforcement agencies must
be as concerned with pre
vention of crime as they are
in apprehending it, if not
m ore." he said.
Brown. 37. holds a doc
torate in criminology from
the University of California
at Berkeley, and masters
degree in criminology and
sociology.
Besides leaching
at Portland State University
and Howard University, he
was a uniformed policeman
in San Jose for eight years.
He has recently researched
police attitudes on the hiring
of minority correctional of­
ficers, a study that is not yet
complete.

O UR BLACK HO LY DA YS
Kwanza is an African cele
bration that is traditional all
over the African world. The
word Kwanza is a Swahili
word meaning first or "first
fruits".
Kwanza originated
when our ancestors gathered
together to celebrate the
harvesting of the first crops.
This harvest time was a time
for enjoyment. It was a time
when the work that had been
put out all year was given
meaning.
Everyone could
actually see the fruit that
their
labor
had
brought
forth.
Everyone gathered
together to give collective
thanks for the collective
efforts that had made the
community prosperous.
Our recovery of Kwanza is
just one aspect of our move­
ment towards nationhood.
When we recovered Kwanza
we rediscovered part of our
African selves.
The prin­
ciples of our traditional life
style are reflected during the
seven Black Holy Days of
Kwanza.
I t is one of the
times we have set aside to
solemnly dedicate our minds,
hearts, bodies and souls to
the
Seven
Principles
of
Blackness (Nguzo Saba). The
spirit and beauty of the cele
bration is reflected in work
ing toward the "oneness” ol
Pan Africanism.
The seven
principles are:
Umoja
unity; Kujichagulia
self
determination; Ujima collec
live work and responsibility:
Ujamaa
cooperative eco
nomics; N ia
purpose;
Kuumba
creativity; and
Imam faith.

By affirming our Black
Holy Days, we begin to
create the traditions that will
be passed on to yet unborn
generations of African people
wher. we become the an
cestors. By celebrating our
Black Holy days, we give
praise where praise is due.
By coming together we give
concrete expression of the
righteousness and victory of
our struggle and we pledge
to surpass any past efforts in
the oncoming year. We get
together not for any personal
gain but for the
Black
Family, for the Black Nation
and for the love we have for
all Black people.
Here we
have the significance of the
Black Holy Days we call
Kwanza.
For more information on
the celebration of Kwanza,
