That is why I be¬lieve not only in the future of theNegro family, but also in the future of the family of man.”In the question period followinghis speech, King said that unlessbasic economic reforms are insti¬tuted as a part of the War on Pov¬erty, the war will become “justanother welfare program.”KING'S FOUR POINT proposalof economic reforms includes anextension of the minimum wage tocover those not now covered; anincrease in the minimum to $1.75per hour; and massive publicworks and retaining programswhose purpose would be to over¬come job losses causes by automa¬tion.King was asked during the ques¬tion period about the stand of civil-rights organizations on the war inVietnam. Emphasizing that there“can be no justice without peace,and no peace without justice,”King stated that as a Christianminister he felt obliged to followthe dictates of his conscience inspeaking out on the war. He addedthat civil rights groups have nei¬ther the time nor the resources tobecome active in the protestsagainst the war; but King drew aparallel between the content ofanti-war protests and civil rightsideology. King quoted PresidentKennedy’s statement that “wemust put an end to war, or warwill put an end to mankind,” andadded that a resumption of thebombing of North Vietnam wouldbe an “error”. King noted that itdoes little good to integrate schoolswithout trying to guarantee thesafety of the world into which thestudents will go.IN RESPONSE to another ques¬tion, King emphasized the humanand economic cause of this. “I be¬lieve the problem of the problem ofthe Negro family has intensified”due to urbanization, he stated, butthe main immediate cause of disin¬tegration is economic—“the Negroman can’t function as a man with¬out a decent job.”Ml 3-31135424 S.

Lewontin,professor of zoology, courses wouldbe structured around considerationof specific topics or problems in afield. From such a topic as center,discussion would move outwardinto related questions. As thecourse progressed, a broad outlookcould emerge from considerationof the several problems whichcould be derived from the originaltopic.Lewontin’s plan has been univer¬sally praised as the “ideal’’scheme, but also widely questionedas impractical. Only a few bravesouls would want to attempt toteach such a course, it is felt, so itcould probably not be put into gen¬eral operation for the whole Col¬lege. Those who do want to try, however, should be free to teachsuch courses, it is agreed.Variety of methods soughtCommon to practically every¬one’s ideas is the notion that awide range of teaching techniquesshould be tried, with combinationsof seminars, lectures, one-to-oneteaching, small groups tutorials,individual research, etc.IT IS LIKELY that the presentframework of general educationrequirements will be retained fornext year’s entering class; most ofthe present general educationcourses would be retained underany circumstances, at least witheither the Booth or Karafiolschemes.It is also likely that the newtypes of courses will be tried on alimited basis for groups of first-year students. A couple of sectionsmight be taught on the pattern of“Liberal Arts I,” while othersmight try the Lewontin approach,and still others might try other ap- px-oaches that seem feasible.In any case, the planning for theNewest College will not stop—theCollegiate divisions are already atwork discussing their own pro¬grams. But only so much can beplanned before they know what the“year in common” will look like.That is what all the current dis¬cussion is about. The concept of the educationalpark and its relevance for the fu¬ture of urban education will be thesubject of a city-wide conferenceat Judd Hall, 59th st. and KimbarkAvenue, Saturday, February 5.The purpose of the conference,according to Mrs. Hans J. Morgen-thau, a member of the Unity or¬ganization steering committee, isto explain to the public the benefits of the educational park idea for ur.ban communities, as opposed tothe “four walls” concept.Speaking at the conference willbe New York educator, Max Wolffwho is the “father” of the educa¬tion park concept, James E.Mauch of the US Office of Educa¬tion, and J. Alan Thomas of UC’sMidwest Administration Center.UNIVERSITYNATIONALBANK**a strong bank99NEW CAR LOANS$*>75 per hundred1354 EAST 55th STREETMU 4-1200member F.D.I.C University Theatre PresentsDIRECTED BYJOHN LION The Meaning and Purpose of Jewish Existencepj/,m nu^i m_k,pl,Major Jewish Philosopher,Founder Reconstructionist MovementTues., Feb. 1, 8:00 pmJudd Hall, 5835 KimbarkSTUDENTS FREE - NON STUDENTS $1.00THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO IN COLLABORATION WITH THE GOODMAN THEATREPRESENTSBarbara Baxley George GrizzardINMoliere’s Witty comedyTHE MISANTHROPETranslated byPulitzer Prize winning Poet Richard Wilburalso starringBrenda ForbesLee RichardsonPreviews Friday night, February 4, and Saturday afternoon, February 5OPENS SATURDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 5 (Through February 27)THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO LAW SCHOOL AUDITORIUM1121 East 60th Streetticket reservations: Bursar's Office, Adminstration Building, 5801 EllisTues. & Sun.
