OOPS! BRIDGE OUT BY 13 FEET! —
Work has been halted on this 600-foot Interstate 79
bridge near Pittsburgh—it would wind up 13 feet away from its proper site! The Pennsylvania 
Highway Department blames the error on the fact that one Bet of consultants
designed it and another, did the blueprint job. There's no connection? Yes, there's no

$300,000 Damage Suit Filed By
Pikesville, Kentucky Couple
A
$3000,000 damage suit was filed recently 
against Sen. John McClellan, 
of Arkansas and members of
his investigating committee.
Among those, filing the sit in
U. S. District Court here are Al and
Margaret McSurelsy, of Pkeville,
Ky., who were under subpoena to
appear before the committee the
day the suit was filed.
Other plaintifs are four human
rights, and student organizations:
the Southern Conference Educational 
Fund (SCEF) on whose staff
the McSurely's work; Students for
a Democratic Society, (SDS); the
Southern student Organizating
Committee, (SSOC); and the Student 
Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, 
(SNCC).
The McSurleys have been ordered 
to turn over to the McClellan
Committee material related to these
and other organizations. The suit
asks that the subpoenas be quashed 
on grounds that they violate
constitutional rights. Each plaintiff
also asks $30,000 damages.
The plaintiffs charge that the
subpoenas are part of a conspi-
racy between the McClellan Committee, 
Thomas Ratlift, prosecutor
in pike county, Ky., and the coal
operators of Eastern Kentucky to
deprive the McSurleys and others
of their rights to organize in pursuit 
of civil, human and political
rights. Ratliff is founder of the National 
Independent ooal Operators
Association.
The McClellan Committee claims

it needs papers belonging to the
MeSurelys for its investigation of
urban disorders.
The papers were originally taken
from the MeSurelys in a midnight
raid on their mountain home in
August, 1967. They were arrested at
that time on a charge of sedition
under a Kentucky state law.
This law was declared" unconstitutional 
by a three-judge Federal
Court, and McClelland then subpoenaed 
the material seized in the
raid. A U. S. Court of Appeals ordered 
the documents returned once,
but McClellan subpoenaed them
again.
The MeSurelys work as part of
the Southern Mountain Project of
SCEF, which is bringing the black
and white poor people in the
mountains together to organize for
political and economic action.
The suit against McClellan was
prepared by William Kunstler.
Arthur Kinoy. Morton Stavis, Rita
Murphy, and other attorneys associated 
with the Law Center for
Constitutional Rights in Newark,
New Jersey.

Re-Entry Problems
In Return To School
Astronauts 
aren't the only one with
re-entry problems. People who
think they are should talk to mature 
women who have returned to
the pursuits they interrupted When
they began raisins families. One
such "re-entry" problem occurs
when a woman in her 40's returns
to college life.
Conflicts between housework and
homework are only part of the dilemma, 
according to Mrs. Irene
Strauss Goldman, a mother of three
now working for a bachelor's degree 
ot Farleigh Dickinson University 
here.
"It takes real work to get back,
to overcome your fears and still
run your household," Mrs. Goldman
said in an interview. She then cited 
three pressure areas which had
to be facd whn such re-entry is
made the discipline of "using your
brain again," the generation gap
between yourself and younger students, 
and the conflict, between the
demands of School work and the
needs of the family.
Mrs. Goldman observed that although 
young people might becasual 
about school works, the mature 
woman tended to take it more
seriously. Y"ou worry," she said,
"about whether you can still remember 
things. You feel you have
to study harder than anyone to
get god grades and prove yourself
again."
The mature woman, she said,
soon realizes however that she has
more livings experience, has read
more, tha she grew up with books
"while the youngsters crew up with
TV," With this kind of perpective,
she noted, you find yourself starting 
to enjoy school and "you begin

to get good grades too."
The age difference between herself 
and her felow students did
come as something of a shock,
said Mrs. Goldman now in her
mid-forties. "I certainly don't feel
like an old lady, but I was old
enough to be hte mother of some
of the students and usually the
oldest in my class."
Once the shock was over, she
noted it was "pretty fascinating"
of meet people of different agse
and different interests. "If you're
going to keep up with them." she
said "particularly when you're in
your forties and fifties." maintaining 
health and vgor is essential.
She stressed the mportance of being 
in "pretty good shape" and
felt that women in this age group
should see their doctors for regular
check-ups and for advice on "keeping 
young."
Other mature women consulting
their physicians have found that
declining vitality levels which
sometimes occure at this time of
life can often benefit from hormone 
replacement.
Perhaps the most difficult re-entry 
problem, was according to Mrs.
Goldman, was conflict between
school and family obligations. She
stressed the need to find a middle
course between the demands of
school work and the needs of the
family.
She noted that although the various 
pressures of re-entry are
there, so are "the satisfactions and
rewards." When you've set certain
difficult challenges for yourself
and met them, you feel good about 
it." She aded, "And your
family is pretty proud of you, too."

THE THOUGHT EXCHANGE
What people want to hear, and
what they need to hear, may be
ah intirely different thing; and
currently vi have too many speakers 
who are more interested in telling 
people what they want to hear,
since this insures, a certain specles 
of popularity. One of the most
unpopular things a speaker can
do is to tell pc People what they need
to hear. It was all the more gratifiying 
to hear Dr. Thomas H.
Henderson in his recent convocation 
address before the assembled
student body of Virginia Union
University depart from the usual
course of trying to court, popularity, 
and make a serious attempt to
be helpful to the hundreds of young
people there gathered. But the
most gratifying feature of the great
occasion was to see how hungry
the students were for some straight
talk. The applause he received at
the conclusion of his marvelous address 
strengthened faith in the possibilities 
of youth at a time when
youth is being severely tested and
freely criticized, for what they do
and what they do not do.
Among the powerful observations
made by Dr. Henderson was, the
warning to the students that while
it was timely and necessary for the
Negro to react to the discriminations 
and limitations which he
must meet on every hand, it is
highly necessary for the Negroes
and especially the younger generations 
not to "over-react" and turn
humorless raid rude and boorish in
their efforts to prove themselves
no unucle, toms and handkerchiefheads." 
He emphaszed that the real
"uncle tomes" may "prove to be
those young Negroes who are allowing 
themselves to be used by
designing white revolutionaries, who
are desircus of overthrowing this
nation and using our young Negroes
to spear-head their thrust to power. 
For t is true that, in order to
appear courageous and, brave, some
Negroes go to the extreme to show
their true colors. It is a fact that
a man can be a man without being

Southern School Districts Submit
News Desegregation Plans
One of
five Southern school districts
whose federal aid funds were withheld 
last month in a controversial
Nixon Administration ruling has
submitted a desegregation plan permitting 
restoration of the money
retroactively, it was announced
Thursday.
The r granted Martin
County. N. C., was announced by
Undersecretary John G. Veneman
of the Department of Health, Education 
and welfare in the absence
of HEW Secretary Robert H. Finch.
Martin County was one of five
school districts in Northland South
Carolina, and Mississippi that former 
HEW Secretary Wilbur J. Cohen
of the Johnson administration
recommended for an unqualified
fund cuoff under the 1964. Civil
Rights Act prohicition against discrimination. 

But when Finch took office, one
of his first acts was to amend Cohens 
order to permit restoration
of the funds retroactive ot Jan. 29
if a district submitted an "acceptable 
desegregation plan" within
the following 60 days.
Civil rights leaders criticized
Finch for an alleged compromise
of the intent of the law's ban on
federal support of any local discriminatory 
activity.
Finch subsequently declared complete 
support of the law and incated 
the retroactive feature would
be dropped, since then, he has
withdrawn funds from three other
Southern school districts without
giving them the same chance to regain 
their aid.
Veneman said the Martin County
plan, while giving HEW "serious
reservations" about interim steps,
requires total desegregation by 1970
in a way that satisfies the Civil
Rights Act.
A civil right examiner for HEW
held last April that Martin County's 
"freedom of choice" plan had
failed to end school desegregation
and that the county's federal aid
should be cut off. It was on this
recommendation that Cohen acted.

End Electoral College NAACP
Urges Judicial Committee
In testimony 
before the judciary Committee 
of the House of Representatives
here, Feb. 20, Clarence Mitchell
gave conditional NAACP support to
a move to Abolish the Electoral
College. Mr. Mitchell is director of
the Washington Bureau of the National 
Association for the Advancement 
of colored People.
"The position, of bur organization
is very clear," Mr. Mitchell said.
"In our conventions, we have passed 
resolutions favoring, abolishing
the Electoral College and permitting 
direct election of the President." 
in emphat tones, he added 
"but only if there, are adequate
safeguards against all forms of discrimination 
that deny the ballot
to our citizens because of race."
Mr. Mitchell's testimony was
given in reference to H. J. Res,
179, H. J. Res. 181 and related bills
which are presently under consideration 
in the House. Mr. Mitchell
made it clear that the NAACP
would be opposed to any action
wheh might tend to re-establish
voting restrictions which would
make it difficult for Negroes to
have unrestricted use of the ballot. 

"The Negro voting age population

of 11 southern states (Alabama, Arkansas, 
Florida Georgia, Louisiana,
Mississippi, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Tennessee Texas and
Virginia) is approximately 5 million." 
Mr. Mitchell sad. There were
1,530,634 registered before, the 1965
voting Rights Act was passed.
After the Act was put into effect,
registration increased. There are
now approximately 2,810,763 Negro
voters in these states. However this
is still only 57.2 per cent of the
potential. The percentage of white
registered voters in these states
is 76.5 per cents."
"So far we do not have footproof 
methods of preventing voting 
discrimination because of race."
he said. "Under the circumstances
it appears that the only improvement 
that the NAACP can support 
at this time is the elimination 
of the Electroral College. This

end to both the risk and farce assocated 
with the present system
cast the state's vote for the candidate 
of their choice."
