When Negro students in the South staged
their sit-ins, they made new history in
their long, courageous struggle to achieve
full rights as American citizens.
The sit-ins. The bus boycotts. The chill
dren who braved mobs to enter school
classrooms. Seldom have people shown
such quiet bravery or set such high
example of human dignity. They have
acted in the best traditions of democracy
-. democracy that must move ahead.
There is another kind of action which can
help bring full rights to all Americans.
Action from the President.

In response to Ellen Acker-

81, I must say that although
the Kingston Trio is not too
popular among high school
students, it is VERY popular
among those who are in
college and those who have
graduated recently. There is
proof of this in the way their
one-night appearances at
different colleges in the
Nation have been either sold
out or filled to standing

may be unusual, but I prefer
these people to some of those
that one hears on So-called

This does not mean that
I condemn the other artists.
Different artists appeal to

Don't get me wrong. I also

The origins of the
Twist" are not clear.
But the dance-and now
the song-are sweeping
the country.
There was a record
called 1.-The Twist" as
long as a year and a half
ago. The guy who did it
based it on a dance pat
tern some young people
were doing in large
cities. But apparently
the country wasn't ready
for it. The record went
nowhere.
Recently, however,
Bernie Lowe, the astute
manager of Parkway
records, noticed that
teen ayers in Philadel-
phia and elsewhere were
starting to "pick up on"
the dance.
He decided the time
was ripe for a record.
Rather than try some
thing new, he copied
precisely the. sound of
the original Twist" re-
cord, which by now was
nearly forgotten.
For his singer, he
chose Chubby Checker,
an 18-year-old Philadel-
phian who had been
making records for him
