This, the Bishop said, led to the bus boycott and the formation of such orgamza turns as the Southern Christian Leadership Con ference, the Student Non violent Coordinating Com mittee, the Congress of Racial Equality, and others followed by the cry of "Black Power." During the early days, he pointed out, the civil rights movement placed its hope in integrated institutions. But now this seems like an empty dream. "White racism ia still too en trern hed. and Black self determination is still liai far removed," he declared. The hope now is in the Black Church, the Bishop said, because all the newer civil rights groups, except Reverend Jesse Jackson's PUSH and Reverend Leon Sullivan's OIC, seem to have run their course. The church can help, the Bishop continued. "The insights and obligations of our Judeo Christian Eaith will enable concerned fol lowers to move beyond 'lolarization to reconciliation ami into involvement which is vocal ami visible... "The church must move beyond its captivating in stitionalism into the main stream of life. The church must 1 m - more than dis course and rhetoric; it must bo where the people are hurting," he said. Turning to Richard Allen, the founder of the AME ( hurch, Bishop Robinson pointed out that Allen first founded the Free Africn Society to aid the poor and outcast in Philadelphia. Referring to today’s con ditions, he said the people realize that things could be better. Their helplessness provokes raw emotions and directionless violence, he added, calling for more involvement and a deeper commitment by members of the church. Concordia plans scholarship Concordia College an nour.ces the establishment of the E Shelton Hill Scholarship and Student Support Fund.

"I feel highly honored to have a scholarship in my name; but what is more important is that it pro­ vides assistance for some students to get the neces sary training to make a maximum contribution to the community,” noted E. Shelton Hill, former execu tive director of the Portland Urban League and close associate to Concordia Col lege. The fund is an outgrowth of concern by the Minority Coordinator and Student Minority Advisory Commit tee. R e v iv a l E.
