DOHERTV CODY, Wyo. (UPI) - The fa mous last stand of Gen. George Armstrong Custer and five com panies of the famed 7th Caval ry on the Little Big Horn June 25, 1876, is the main attraction this season of the Whitney Gal lery of Western Art. The epic painting of Custer's battle against the Sioux and other Plains tribes was moved from the Montana Historical museum at Helena to become the focal point of a large col lection of Western Americana here in the Whitney gallery and the Buffalo Bill museum. The painting by Edgar S. Paxson, moved here by his heirs over protests from the Montana museum director, celebrates one of the best known military en gagements in American history. It is supplemented by a collec tion put together by Dr. Har old McCracken, director of the gallery, of a group of other im portant pictures and original documents relating to the last stand. ' , Portraits There are portraits of Indian chiefs and warriors who par ticipated in the "massacre" and an exhibit of two of the more significant documents involved Gen. Alfred H. Terry's offi cial report of finding the bodies of Custer and his men on the field of battle and Terry's field report on the battle to Gen. George Crook. The Paxson painting, com pleted in 1899, is six by nine fect in size and depicts Custer in buckskins, grasping his side. He is surrounded by B5 of his troops. All were killed In the battle, one of the most contro versial in American annals. Because of a recent contro versy over the painting itself, McCracken researched the his torical authenticity of the can vas, checking it against offical and other records, the artist's notes and diaries and other paintings of the battle. "It is my conclusive opinion," he said, "that the Edgar S. Pax son painting of 'Custer's Last Stand must be accepted as the most accurate portrayal that we have of the historic battle of the Little Big Horn." No While Men No white man is known (o have witnessed or survived the battle. Paxson moved to Montana in 1877, a year after the battle, and spent 42 years there. "In preparing his notes and sketches, Paxson had made it a purpose to make friends of many of the most Important Indians who had personally par ticipated in the fight, learning to converse with them in their own dialect and also by the sign language," McCracken said. "A number of these he Induced lo accompany him to the battle site and there relate what happened. He had the great advantage of being 'liked' by the Indians. They named him 'Cot-lo-sec' (He Sees Everything), and the most reticent of the noted chiefs and warriors posed for him to paint their portraits, and talked freely. "Among the Indians who through the years contributed valuably lo Ihe accuracy of the Paxson painting was the Sioux war chief Gall, who commanded Hie hoslilea in the attack; also he had cut nut the heart of Capt. Tom Custer, Ihe Gener al's brother; Chief Two Moons, leader of the fighting Chey ennes: and many of the lesser warriors, as well as squaws. who reportedly stripped and muti lated the dead soldiers." Negro Students in Chicago Attend 'Freedom Schools' By AL KUbi i:fc.i United Press International The temperature in Chicago Tuesday was in the balmy six ties, perfect sunshiny autumn weather for playing hookey from school. On such a day, integration leaders exploded a massive city-wide "freedom day" protest against alleged de facto segre gation and their controversial school superintendent, Dr. Ben jamin C. Willis. Although many youngsters simply took the day off, others SURGERY AID NEW YORK (UPI) - New overhead supply units for hospi tal operating rooms increase the safety, cleanliness and con venience of heart surgery by bringing anesthetic gases, wa ter, electricity and waste dis posal lines directly to the heart lung machine operator and the anesthesiologist, according to Chemetron Corp.'s NCG divi sion. The stainless steel units, which are raised and lowered electrically, eliminate the tan gle of supply lines normally as sociated with this type surgery when the supplies come from floor and wall units. went all out for the integration project. To substitute for regular schools, promoters of the pro test established 144 "freedom schools" throughout Chicago. Negroes attended "classes" in churches, civic centers and other buildings and were taught some lessons they normally don't get in regular schools. They were given "diplomas" at the end of the day. Credit Is Questionable Whether Chicago school offi cials would give credit for the day's "work" was in question. State law requires that children go to a school but doesn't say it has to be an acceptable one. A school operated by the Black Muslims in Chicago has been a going concern for some time. Negro children from 6 to 18 piled into the "freedom schools." Back at city hall, tod dlers as young as two years of age were on hand. The "freedom school" pupils were given instruction from a 20-page "Guide for Freedom School Leaders" prepared by a group calling Itself Teachers for Integrated Schools. The in struction book was broken down into age levels. For first, second and third graders (age 6-7-8), the instruc tions to the teachers went like this: "What days do we go to school?" teacher asks class. "And what do we call our school today. (F r e e d o m school)." "Write the word freedom on the board or a large piece of paper for all to see. Discuss the meaning of the word. Have each child print his or her name at the top of the paper and practice writing the word freedom." Intermediate Lessons The lesson plan for the inter mediate grades included: "Recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag and sing ing of the Star Spangled Ban ner. "The leader explains about attending the freedom school and what a boycott is. 'A boy cott means something when a lot of people do it at the same time. It doesn't mean much if only one person docs it.' " "You are helping the freedom movement by staying out of school," the teacher says. "Now, can someone think of a boycott that helped to begin the American Revolution about 170 years ago?" (Answer: Bos ton tea party.) Afler that, the group received information about the various integration organization labels such as NAACP (National As sociation for the Advancement of Colored People), SNCC (Stu dent Non-Violent Coordinating Committee) and SCLC (South ern Christian Leadership Conference). Skit About Tubman There was also a skit about j Harriet Tubman, identified as "the most famous conductor of: the underground railroad who led over 300 slaves into free-j dom." i For high school groups, the! format was more advanced: A History of the Negro "Freedom Movement." j "What do we mean when we ; say all people are equal regard-1 less of race? Did the slaves j like being in the United States? Why do you think freedom is better than slavery? "Can you show how the Ne gro people made their greatest advances when they themselves took action? Do you know of any cases where white people cooperated to help Negroes gain their right? How does the achievement of full equality for Negroes help white people as well?" All age groups were taught the songs of the integration movement such as "We Shall Overcome" and "Oh, Freedom." Then, back at the old school houses, it's supposed to be reading, writing and arithmetic again. Court Records Ml DFORO MUNICIPAL COURT Martin Dick Chris tensen, dis obeyed Iraflic sienal. $10.
