d iffering points of view reg ard ing solu

Francis J. Ivancie and P eet M . Soot,
bokthda y of a ring
W ouldn't it be g re a t, if we could re ta in th a t high s p irit o f brotherhood and oneness
year round th a t engulfs Black Am ericans every Janu ary 15th? I'm sure that was p art
of M a rtin L u th e r K in g, J r's "D re a m ”, too. The o th er h alf being C iv il and hum anitarian
rights for all people of the w orld. T h e d re a m e r is dead. But the dream w ill become an
eventual reality, you know the inevitable alw ays comes. Q uite fittin g ly ceremonies
were held in his honor a t K in g E le m e n ta ry School. T h e re w e re o ver eighty people on
hand to pay th eir respects to one of the greatest men who e v e r lived. E . Shelton H ill
was presented the "P eyton A w a rd ” for outstanding contributions in the interest of
human rights.
M r. H ill has been knocking down racial b a rrie rs in the Pacific
N o rthw est for many, m any years. H e was an advisor in race relations for the Housing
A u th o rity of Vancouver. W ashington, p rio r to join ing the U rb a n League in 1947. A
shining star to his race, his state and his com m unity.
CONGRATULATIONS MR. HILL!
Herbie Mann
Herbie Mann and his polished aggregation of musicians gave a v e ry impressive
performance Saturday night at the C ivic A u ditorium . H e rb ie , one of the heavy
w eights of jazz for o ver a decade, has played flute w ith such n oU b les as: Zoot Sims.
“Philly" Jo Jones, Colem an H aw king s. Roy E ld rid ge, Cal J a u te r, M iles D avis and
many others. I t has been said th a t associating brings about assem ilation. and when
you’ve been in the business of m aking people happy through yo u r music as H erb ie has,
then you're bound to be a show stopper. H e rb ie cautioned the audience from the on
set; " If our songs have sensual connotations - it's because w e a re .” “Cries and
W h isp ers' was a standout selection for the evening w ith his pianist P a t Rebillot
providing the keyboard a rtis try . A lo ng w ith a Stevie W onder tune "B eautiful B ird ” ;
and "High O ver the A ndea." A few of his tunes had a L atin flav o r about them , which is
understandable too. P rio r to recording “H e rb ie M ann at the V illa g e G a te ” probably
his biggest selling album o f all tim e, he spent quite a bit of tim e in South A m erica in
the early 60 s. W h a te v e r flavor you w an t to associate w ith H e rb ie M ann it's got to be
Deee-licious!!
John Klenuner
Although H e rb ie M ann was the headliner of the concert S a tu rd a y night. K le m m e r
was also on the bill. Influence by the late great "John C o letrain ” and O rn e tt Coleman
he closed the concert on a positive up note. I review ed his concert tw o months ago and
gave him th re e stars. Need I say more?
Check I t O ut
N a tu rally , we w ere expecting media coverage from the new spapers and television
stations, honoring D r. K ing's birthd ay, how ever, I was to ta lly disappointed in the T V
coverage. Su rely, they m ust have realized th a t T hu rsday "unfortunately" wasn't a
national holiday. So n atu rally a lot o f people who would have liked to attend the
ceremony w e re w orking. T he T V news spot only lasted a few seconds. T hey could
have at least shot the aw ard presentation and scanned the audience! A fte r all,
January 15th is a very special day, not only in the lives of Black people, but. all people
who have fe lt the blows of racism and oppression in the w orld. I have seen less
eventful coverage m ore often than not. Shame on you!!!

How sw eet it is. The Blazers won th e ir third game on the road this trip , beating
D e tro it F rid a y night and Kansas C ity on S aturday, before a T V audience. The
momentum continues to build for this still young team . I think the coaching of Lenny
W ilkens is finally getting through to the guys. W e now stand at the half way m ark of
this season.
If once we stopped and review ed this season snd w hat has been
happening w ith Lenny and the players, I think w e would be amazed a t the
accomplishments.
T he sll around plays of Geoff P etrie has made a tremendous difference in the whole
teams direction. Because Geoff and Sidney w ere the firs t real stars of the Blazers we
w ere accustomed to seeing them play th e ir own kind of basketball. But since Lenny
has taken o ver as coach, we have seen the changes in not only Geoff, but also Sidney.
Some of the basketball experts th a t attend regularly have been somewhat
displeased w ith the transition of the stars, but soon, we w ill s ta rt to see the results o f a
hard coaching job. By w hat I think is one of the tru e knowledgeable and respected
gentlem en in the game, la w n y is a quiet man in the public, but a deamon in the
basketball w orld. W e are very fortunate to have a guy like Lenny, at a tim e when
someone is needed to pull things together and keep them moving. In the game
Tuesday night against N ew York we lost another close one 107 to 104.
Congratulations are in order for the Wicks. T hey are proud parents of a new baby
girl, mom and d aughter are doing fine. T h e teams next game is a t home against the
Los Angeles latkers later this week. See you at the game.
School committee prepares election campaign
A massive get out th e vote campaign is
c urren tly underw ay by Citizens lor
Sound Schools, an independent and
voluntary citizens organization form ed to
support the building maintenance and
renovation m easure which goes before
voters a t a special school election on
M arch 9th.
The com m ittee plans a “vigorous"
campaign on behalf of the measure and
has set a budget of $15,000 in non public
funds for the campaign.
T h e donated
funds w ill go to pay the cost of the e ffo rt
both to info rm voters and obtain a “yes'*
vote on the measure. U n d e r Oregon law
public agencies may not spend public
funds for advocacy of a “yes” vote on
measures.
But they do have the
responsibility, and obligation, to inform
all citizens of the facts about the issues
presented for public vote, and to explain
the needs to the general public.
Goal for the new ly form ed campaign
group is to make sure th a t e v e ry
registered v o te r is inform ed and has the
opportunity to m ake an intelligent
decision on the issue.
P o rtland er Sally Anderson has been
hired by the com m ittee to d irect the
campaign as coordinator.
She w ill

Essence of the Citizens for Sound
Schools effo rt. Ms. Anderson said, is to
mount a personal contact campaign
involving as many registered voters as is
possible betw een now and the M arch 9th
election.
T he measure subm itted by the Board
of Education calls for an eight year serial
levy of $3.5 million a year for building
maintenance and renovation.

already received ihe endorsement of

land Association of Teachers, Am erican
Association of U n iv e rs ity Women. L ea ­
gue of Women V oters.
Multnomah
County C entral l-abor Council, and
several school adm inistrative groups.
C om m ittee officials also said th a t
organizational efforts are curren tly un
derw ay w ith the goal of establishing a
campaign com m ittee in each school
neighborhood in the com m unity. So far,
they said. 52 school neighborhoods have
formed com m ittees and more than 450
local school campaign com m ittee mem
bers have been recruited.
