Dr. Lincoln delivers paper
on the New Blacks
"LOOK AT ME! I WANT TO
BE RECOGNIZED! I want you to
reinforce my own self-conviction
that I am somebody. That I make
a difference. That I don 't have to
look like you to be a person of
dignity and worth!"
These dramatic words brought
to a climax a paper entitled "The
- New Blacks in Search of a Self"
presented by Dr. C. Eric Lincoln
at the first session of the
Colloquim on the Black Experience sponsored by the Black
/
Student Society.
In his paper, Dr. Lincoln, who
is a professor of sociology at
Union Theological Seminary,
examined some cultural, social
and historical aspects of Blacks
in American society.
Commenting
on
white
America 's characterization of
Blacks as a collective problem,
Dr. Lincoln related the story of a
woman who asked him for some
material on the "colored
situation ". "...I sent her a
"colored" paint chart from the
hardware store," he said, "it was
the only 'colored situation' she
could handle in her thinking."
Dr. Lincolnstated that many of
the problems that Blacks have
trouble coming to grips with stem
from their problems of identity.
"The un-bridged chasm between
who they were in Africa and who
they are in America has crippled
the minds, clouded the dreams,
dulled the ambitions and bowed
the
heads
of
countless
generations of men and women
who were made to cringe like
slaves, wh en in a f ree democracy
they should have been able to
walk like princes."
The New Blacks
The emergence of "the N ew
Blacks", educated, informed and
aware of the awsome task bef ore
them was an important theme in
Dr. Lincoln's paper. He said that

this new emergence was the
result of the Black American's
"discoverv of his own ego".
Dr. Lincoln described the
essence of the Black ego as Soul.
"Soul is the Black man's most
positive estimate of himself ...It is
the connective skein that runs
through the totality of the Black
Experience, weaving it together
and infusing it with meaning."
The New Black's definition of
himself and his awareness that
his heritage is good and therefore
a source of pride and strength is a
starting point for a Black
Revolution. Dr. Lincoln stated
that this Black Revolution "intends to change the image of the
American society by changing or
destroying many of the concepts
and attitudinal strategies which
{unction to perpetuate the submerged status of the Black
people...I see the Black
Revolution as the united expression of 30 million Blacks in
search of identity, status ,
privilege and responsibility."
Q and A
During the question and answer period following Dr. Lincoln's presentation, he was asked
how long it would be before
Black's got full equality. He
stated that equality can only
come about when people who
have power concede it, either
voluntaril y or involuntarily.
"And ' , ne said, "power concedes
nothing."
When asked to comment on the
meaning of racism , Dr. Lincoln
said that racism implies insecurity on the part of the people
who have power. "It's knowing
who'll win before the race is even
run ", he said.
When asked why more Black's
weren 't behind the Presidential
campaign of Shirley Chisholm,
who incidentally is the next
speaker in the Black Colloquim,
Dr. Lincoln said that it. was

because too many whites were.
He later elaborated on the point
by stating that Blacks weren 't
interested in Women 's Liberation
because Black women will only
be liberated when their men are.
He observed that whenever the
Black movement in America
gathered momentum , some other
movement appeared to divert
power and energy away from it.
He said that he considered
Women 's Lib just such a diversionary movement .
When asked why only 17 of the
250 writers attempting to
describe the Black culture in
America were Blacks themselves, Dr. Lincoln replied that
he doubted the statistic because
he could think of 18 himself. When
told that the statistic was drawn
from an article in TIME
magazine,
Dr.
Lincoln
questioned TIME'S qualifications
and motives.
Both before and after the afternoon session in Haas, Dr.
Lincoln spent the day talking to
various classes and groups
around the campus. That night,
he attended a dinner in the
Commons given in honor of Dr.
Lincoln 's visit to the campus by
the Black Student Society.

In a poll taken by the Ad hoc
Comm ittee of all Senators, 72 per
cent of the 64 Senators who
responded favored ret ention of
th e two semester system, while
28 per cent favored chan ge to an
alternate system . Many of the 46
Sena t ors who f avored a ret ention
of the two semester system indicat ed a preference for a change
in the beginnin g and termination
dates of the fall semester. In
response t o these Senators, Dr.
Cole has provided four alternatives to the present semest er
system. Each of these alterna t ives has the terminati on date
of the fall semester prior to the
Christmas vacation . These four
alternatives plus the present
syst em represent the f ive choices
that the committee is presenting
to the Senate.
The first alternative , presently
employed at Shippensburg State
College, would have the fall
semester beginning immedia t ely
after Labor Day and endin g a few
days prior to the Chr istmas
vacat ion. The spring semester
would begin in mid-January and
end In late Ma y.
The second alternative ,
presently used by West V irginia
University, would have classes
beginning prior to Labor Day and
ending approximately one week
before Christmas vacation. The
spring semester would begin
early in January and terminate
early in May.
The third proposal is a combination of the fall semester
calendar of West Virginia
University and the spring
semester calendar of Ship-

pensburg State College.
The University of Delaware ,
from which the f ourth proposal
was chosen , begins its fall
semest er early in Sept ember and
ends a few days prior to
Ch r i stmas vaca ti on. A shor t
Winterim term begins early in
J anuary and ends la te in the
same month . The spring
semester begins late in January
and t ermina tes near the end of
May.
The fifth proposal wh ich will be
presentedto the Senate calls for a
retention of the College's present
system.
i ne senate men moved to set
up a commit t ee consisting of
three Senators , including one
st udent , to serve i n l iason wi t h
three appointees from the APSCUP Executive Committee . The
purpose of this committee would
be to work out any conflicts that
may arise and to insure smooth
interaction between the Senat e
and APSCUP bodies .
The Senate also elected eight

When College Council came of
age in the 30's to represent the
entire communit y, studen t s
found it easier to run for office. A
cumulative avera ge of 1.00 was
all that was needed to be eligible
to run for any of the studen t-held
offices .
Maybe the grade requirements
were lower since the students
ranking were lower. In 1935 the
. college failed to meet the standard in a test given on Current
World Affairs by Time magazine.
The highest possible score was
105 points with the college mean
at 55 and the high school mean set
at 45. Of the three hundred tested
the mean for our students came
to 48.26. It was probably embarrassing for the college to have
their students closer to the high
school mean than the college one.
Some of the editorials make it
sound like things have not
changed much either. One

English and History being the

BSC's newspaper which was
originally called BLOOM-INNEWS has a little different
format than the M&G of toda y.
The newspaper provided , as the
editorial in the first issue , on
Wednesday, February 20, 1924
stated , "an opportunity to
become better acquainted with
each other , to feel as members of
a family and also to keep alive
the memory of our school days ".
In an age of instant news and
immediate broadcastin g of
events tha t effect us, it would be
hard for even a recent graduate
of BSC to read and fully comprehend the bi-weekly M&G
publications. To feel as part of a
family would be an, even harder
task.
The newspaper then was sold
and distribu ted on a subscr iption
basis. Besides the "Normalites ",
the student nickname back in the
days of the Bloorasbur g Normal
School , having a campus
newspaper , the alumni were told ,
"This is your paper " at $.75 a
semester . The stude nts got a deal
for $.50.
The editorial policy of the earl y
30's struck an unusual note as far
as editorials go. The 1934
editorial stated that
"no
editorials of national interests or
any interests outside our
collegiate walls " would be
printed. The staff stuck to their
policy but the paper was not
without some sort of political
comment .
Washington 's Birthday was
observed by having a discussion
and the central thought was that
in order "to prev ent war , statues
or monuments must be erected
and streets must be named , to
glorify peace rather than to
pra ise war in the traditional
way ". Their hearts were in the
right place , but foreign policy
was never made in the streets
and it probably never will be. But
imagine , signs of a peace

movement at BSC in 1924.
The Norma lites even had a
May Day but it had a muc h different meanin g than it does
today. It was held on the athletic
field and the community performed Old En glish Morr is
dances and chorus production s,
and even some light skits to liven
thin gs up a bit.
One top ic that is an issue on
campus toda y for all the wron g
reasons was writte n about for all
the right reasons. The autho r
stated that one thing should be of
major importan ce to the stud ent
body and "that thin g is our
athle tics ". It seems as if school
had dropped below the hysterical
point and people were worried.
But then the speaker at the
Fifth Annual Athlet ic Dinner , Mr.
M. H. Palm , a coach from
Georgetown Universit y, sparked
things up a bit by saying that
"some critics have been taking
unfair shots at athletes. " He said
about football , "It' s a grand
game. Some things we derive
from football which we can 't get
from books. One thing is the
control of the emotions " . He's
right about the books anyway.
Women 's Lib advocates will be
interested to know tha t the
womtn at BSC were "conducti ng
a plan of self government" while,
of the 6 leading Normal Schools in
Penna., Bloomsburg was the only
one in which the men students did
"not have student government. "
The women might have had self
governmen t in name only since
one of the rules mentioned in the
newspaper stated that they could
"not go without a hat unles s you
wish to be put on campus....alway s wear a hat or some
similiar head covering when you
wish to walk out ."
It wasn 't quite clear what "put
on campus " meant. Ma ybe if you
went down town without a hat
townspeople would tackle you

FO RUM

All in all , things have changed
though not at a par ticularly fast
rate at BSC. Conformist rules and
regulations are usuall y swept
away but some fundamen tal
questions will remain. Like what

^a|p ^i^^HiMmaM *«HiHaHpBiHMiaHHmMnM

is or should be of primary importance to the student? What is
the most effective form of
government for both the men and
women of this college? That' s a
hot one right now. Will teaching ,
as it seems , always be overcrowded? How does an affluent
society achieve peace ? If only
namin g streets and statues would
do it , we'd probably all jump in
and help. And what is athletics
especially now, a maypole for
students to ra lly arou nd in its
present difficult ies, or a learning
experien ce for those involved ?
Yes, the quest ions remain the
same , only they wear different
clothes to confuse us.

are a progressive rock group .
Sure , they like to mess around
with highly complex , classicalbased stuff , but they are and
remain a progressiv e rock group .
In handling Mussorgsky 's Pictures At An Exhibiti on they ha ve
accom plished a rock first: a
symphony performed by a small
rock band at high intensity. The

Blac k Exp erience

symp hony is not complete in its
inter pretation and Emerson ,
Lake and Palmer have added to it
liberally.
As rock music it is a triumph . It
moves , softens , and at times even
talks. It sets a nice mood; you
can have a party to it. Keith
Emerson is a fine technical
musician , his piano , moog and
organ soar , crash , and skim. He
doesn 't improvise all that much ,
but compensa tes in impact.
Classical music it is not. The
song "Tank" from the first ELP
album crops up in. the "Old
Castle " segment. Lake adds
words to several sections , and the
album ends on an entirel y
unrelated piece , "Nutrocker ,"
based on a part of the Nutcracker
Suite . It' s enough to make a
classical fan shrivel up and die.
The inside jacket also is a
departure from Mussor gsky ' s
concept . The pictures that
illustra te it are not what they
shoul d be. For example , the Hut
of Baba Yaga should not be a
scenario from sci-fi , but a
ramshackle affair supported by
the legs of a fowl. Likewise , the
Old Castle picture should depict a
minstrel scene and not an actual
casue.

But then , I' m gettin g away
from my point. Pictures At An
Exhibition is a fine rock albu m.
It' s loud and has a good beat even
if you can 't dance to it.
Needless to say, if you think it
IS classical music , you are the
victim of a huge deception . (I'll
never understand why Cotillion
records bills it as part of thei r
"Modern Classics " ser ies...)

N o one can den y the ultimate
perversity of these vicious ,
senseless murders . They were
open , outright incidents of racism
and , being so openly malicious ,
they are also easily perceived
and deplored. W hat is harder to
detec t and thus harder to understand is what Dr , Lincol n calls
"insti tutionalized racism " ...the

so the Husky tankmen would be
forced to compete against each
other. Their record now stands at
seven wins and two loses.
Dale Alexander, who competes
in the 200 yard backstroke and
the 200 yard individual medley
was entered in the 50O-yard
freestyle. He put in a fine performance and came in second.
Dale was used to give Jack
Feyrer, who took first in the 500
yard free, competition.
The 400 yard free relay was
used as a testing ground for the
newer members of the team.
Dave Gibas led the Husky pack .
Fred Steinhart was on the second
leg, Tom Foss was third , and Joe
Hilger finished the race. The new
fellows swam a fine race.
Husky speedster Dave Gibas
set more records. He did the 100
yard free in 49.8—a new Lock
Haven pool record. Dave also set
a new BSC team record. That was
in the 200 yard individual medley
with a time of 2:13.4. Dave now
has come out of five straight
meets either equaling or
breaking records.
Bob Johnson missed the bus to
Lock Haven. Bob quickly found
two loyal BSC swimming fans
and rode to the meet with them.
He arrived in time to take first
place in the 200 yard breaststroke.

Husky Roo ks
m

The B.S.C. chess team ,
otherwise known as the Huskie
Rooks, traveled to Harrisburg to
compete in Saturday's Eastern
Intercollegiate Championship.
B.S.C.'s entries were divided
into an A team and a B team. The
A team was composed of first
board, David Kistler. Undefeated
in 5 matches, he is tied for first
board of championship with the
highest rating of any state college
player. Second board is David
Sheaffer, 3-2; third board James
Kitchen 3Vfe-lV< »; and fourth board
Ann Marie Shultz 3-2.
The tournament lasted five
rounds, with entries from a dozen
schools. Rochester came in first
place , Princeton second and
Penn State third. The B.S.C. A
team, Rutgers, Washington, and

Jefferson colleges were tied for
fourth , fifth , and sixth places.
The Huskie B team seized
eleventh place. An extra measure
of victory came when the Husky
Rooks humbled their arch rivals,
Lebanon Valley College to the
tune of 3 team points to two team
points.
The B.S.C. B team is composed
of first board, Jack Franks, 1-4;
second board, John Soniak, 14;
third board, John Roush, 1-4; and
fourth board Andrew Cherinka, 23.
The Husky Rooks will be
competing with Princeton this
month. In March they will take on
Brooklyn College and Moravian .
Dr. Gilbert Selders accompanied
and acted as advisor on the
Huskies' trip to Harrisburg.

by bob ohv er
Two of the Husky sports teams
have been very successful over
the last month. The last loss for
Coach Charles Chronister 's
troops occured over Christmas
vacation , while for Coach Eli
McLaughlin's Tankmen their last
defeat was early in the
season.
The Hoopmens record now
stands at 11-3 after there decisive
89-82 victory over previosuly
number 4 ranked Cheyney, and
are tied for the division lead with
them . They have five straight
victories following their loss to
East Stroudsburg in the Berwick
Tournament.
This is the finest basketball
season the Huskies have had
since the early 1960's under then
Coach Bill Foster, who is now at
the University of Utah.
The Huskies have had the
advantage of a balanced scoring
attack , led in conference games
by Paul Kuhn 's 16.9 average,
Howard Johnson 's 15.1, and Art
Luptowski's 14.1. Also in double
figures is John Willis, who's been
playing exceptionally well as of
late.
There is one problem the
Huskies have to face, a letdown.
Let's face it , they've beaten the
top conference teams, and over
the next week they are playing
mostly teams they have beaten
before, and should beat again.
But I remember Kutztown a
while back. There is no way that
the Bears play the Huskies close,
but they did. I hope the team,
realizes that everyone will be
gunning for them , now that they

are tied for the top spot. They
must get up for every game.
SWIMMING
The tankmen started off
slowly, but have come along of
late winning again and again.
Their last few performances
have included some recordbreaking times, led by AilAmerican Dave Gibas. Gibas set
Indiana pool records in both the
50 yard ( 22-0) and 100 yard (49-3)
events, and owns BSC team and
pool records in those events as
well as a number of pools of other
opponents. The likable sprinter is
undefeated in his college career
in the 50 yard competition and the
only time he has lost the 100 yard
event was last year in the NAIA
national competition when he
placed fourth against some of the
strongest college division
competition in the country.
Coach McLaughlin also gives
credit to the other team members
who have been giving some
outstanding performances. He
particularly pointed out the efforts of Bob Jones in the 200 yard
backstroke and the 100 yard
backstroke leg in the medley
competiton, and Ken Narsewicz
in the 200 yard freestyle and 200
yard butterfly competition.
Lock Haven 's veteran Coach
Harold Hacker features Kevin
Hammer in the 50 and 100 yard
freestyle events, divers Larry
Briggs and Gary Fogelman, Rich
Kacinko in the backstroke, John
McDaniels in the breaststroke,
and freshmen Mike Farren , Jeff
Holmes, and Tina Hinaman in the
distance freestyle competition.
The Huskies will be striving
hard to register victories 7, 8, and
9 this week in order to be in the
right frame of swimming mind
for the "big one" next week
against West Chester on
February 16 at home.

cut deeper than blatant Dixieland
racism because it is so of ten
transmitted non-maliciously.

The white person who approaches a well-dressed black
man in a restaurant , asking him
to please reserve a table , doesn 't
moan to be ca)) ous. It only appears natural to him that black
people should occupy jobs as
waiters or chauffers or doormen.
Again , the white man who blames
race riots on "Communist
agitators " unwittingl y insults
blacks by implying that they are
really too stupid to know what's
going on.
Robert Teauge writes, "All of
which is to say that white folk are
immersed in such a totally racist
climate that—like fish born in the
ocean— they have no reason to
suspect for a moment that they
might be all wet. Wherever they
look in this society, there are
white institutions , habits , signs ,
symbols , myths , and realities
that reinforce their notion that
black folk rank somewhere
between King Kong and
Frankenstein 's monster on the

scale of lower forms of life ."
A short time ago, a certain
corporation started manufacturing what they termed "flesh
colored" bandages and bandaids,
under the false impression that
all human flesh is white. Madison
Avenue
commercials
for
feminine beauty products are
conspicuously absent of blacks
(how can a black girl even have
"the skin you love to touch?").
When was the last time you saw
greeting cards adorned with
smiling black faces? (And if
there actually were such cards ,
would whites ever buy them.) At
Christmas time , all the plastic
angels are white. Even Jesus
Christ is traditionally Caucasian.
This list of examples would
continue indefinitely and I'm
sure many people would soon get
bored and stop reading...and that
would be the ultimate racist
attitude: to know the situation

tolerates oppression shares in the

psychological oppression. The
