things. H opefully over the next ten
years you’ ll start to make some effec­
tive changes. The people I meet while
working for long term, lasting changes
are wonderful. These people have en­
riched my life in so many ways. Each
situation 1 have worked in is different,
so I ’ve never done the same thing for
25 years in Portland. The situations
may be similar or seem to be the same
but the situation is usually different and
I have to work with a different cast o f
players. Even the answers in the end
result are different which presents a
new challenge."
Newhall believes that the next decade
in Portland is a very important one.
She says developing integration for the
80’ s can be something this U.S. has
never seen. The activist says now is not
the time to lay back. She says it is the
time for all people to be honest, open
toward no person should never be
shown.
" I t ’ s not easy to solve problems
where white racism or black racism is
present. Both are bad because
prejudice ju s t eats out the heart.
Honesty, justice and compromise have
always been three key issues involved
in the struggle for civil rights. I am a
believer in G handi, M a rtin Lu th e r
King, Jr. and Perez. You must always
strive to understand the other person’ s
motives and whatever heartaches and
skeltons in their closet. Once we come
together to understand and trust each
other, some lasting bridges can be
formed."
Taking a look at the 80’s Newhall
says the Black United Front has had
the support o f both whites and Blacks.
She says this movement and contin­
uance o f voice w ill help bring about
lasting changes for all people.

DISCO FASHION HITTING THE SCENE
Hollywood, C a lifo rn ia -"Saturday
N iu h i Fever” and “ T .G .I.F .” raised
discoinania into a national craze. They
gave the country mobile discos, disco
dancing lessons, a ll-disco ra d io
stations, disco sit-corns, and even disco
roller skating
And now, disco fashion is hitting
the scene and quickly gaining momen­
tum with the daring disco dress.
Made to get that disco dude in the
mood, the disco dress is feminine—
often very sexy. Shoulders are com­
monly bare. Necklines are teasingly
low . And disco dresses have a certain
length which is called, o f course, disco
length-somewhere between the ankle
and knee. But don’t be fooled because
those flirty skirts are full swinging and
fre q u e n tly have slits up to there
revealing lots o f leg and with the ad­
vent o f d ip p in g disco dancing—
sometimes more.
