DIR. ABSOLOM L. VILAKAZI
Program for the second semester
of the current academic year, ac-
Cording to an announcement by
President Harold c. Case of the
University. He will teach a course
in African cultures.
The liberal arts tradition is
chosen as an area of concentration
because Africans know they can
earn their living by teaching" DR..
Vilakazi said. None of the South
African institutions have policies
which allow them into engineering
or business schools"
DR.. Vilakazi also said that few
trade schools for Africans exist in
the country because most skilled
jobs are generally held by Euro
peans. The few trade schools there
are for Africans are generally run
by missionaries, he added.
Some Africans are now going
into medicine, and more of them
into law where they can be inde-
pendent" he said.
DR.. Vilakazi feels that one OF
the greatest needs in African edu-
cation right now is higher stand.
ards in South African primary edu-
cation. He said that according tc
government released figures ap.
proximately two-thirds of African
children attend school. However
many of them leave school between
the fourth and sixth grades" he
said, land I would estimate that
no more than 5 per cent go on tc
a higher education"
DR.. Vilakazi is the author Of
many articles on Zulu life dealing
with cultural contact and cultura
change" In them he explores the
impact that contact with European
culture has made on Zulu patterns
of life. He has also studied tho
problems faced by African teacher!
with changing society.
DR.. Vilakazi earned his Bachelor
of Arts and doctorate degrees a
the University of Natal in Soutl
Africa. He received his Master O.
Arts degree from Trinity Collegc
in Hartford, Conn.
He is an associate professor o
anthropology and African Studio
at the Hartford Seminary Founda
ton, Hartford, Conn, where he ha
taught since 1857.

ations between bowling lane prop
rietors, representatives from the
Governors Commission on Human
Relations and a committee from
the Lincoln University NAACP
College Chapter opened at 1 pm,

Attorney Lee Vertis Swinton,
president, Kansas City, Missouri
Branch and member of the State
NAACP Legal Committee arrived
in Jefferson City to participate in
the negotiations.
The issue is the end discrim-
ination in the bowling lanes of
jefferson City, Missouri. College
Chapter President, Visanio John
son, stated: That we are tired
of being turned away from bowl
ing lanes in jefferson City.
Approximately one-half of the
students at Lincoln University
have access to the lanes because
they are white, while the Negro
students are turned away.

Retirement Of Sfufe
Department Officers
Opens Opportunity

were opened last week for quail
flied Negroes to move in as Foreign
Service officers. More than 300
officers now on duty are expected
to retire by May 81, leaving the
State Department with the gigan-
tic task of finding replacements.
Because of a deadline set by
Congress in two laws that provide
higher retirement pay, the State
Department faces large-scale de-
parture of it's senior Foreign Serv-
ice officers on that date.
Unofficial estimates at the de-
partment on Feb. %, indicated that
as many as go high-ranlIing offic-
ers, including career ambassadors
and ministers, might choose volun-
tary retirement before they reach
mandatory retirement age, to quail
ify for a IL per cent rise in annu-
tiles.
In the opinion of some officials,
retirements covering all Foreign
Service classes may total 300 by
May 81. This would triple the fig
ure for all of 1861, which was con-
sidered a normal year for retire
ments.
In addition to the financial in
ducement to retire, there is said
to be some dissatisfaction among
the older career officers over some
of the Kennedy Administrations
appointments and personnel polio

At present, there are two Ne
groes serving as ambassadors for

West Germany's Chancel-
lor Konrad Adenauer headed
the list of diplomats visiting
GWashington last night.
The aging leader and his
daughter and official com,
panion, Frau Libeth Wer-
hahn, were greeted at An
drews Air Force Base at
$3.50 last night by Secretary
of State and Mrs. Dean Rusk.
Chief of Protocol Angler B.
Duke also greeted the party,
which included West German
Foreign Minister Gerhard
Schroeder.
Guest of Ambassador
Syria's second in COM
mand was the catalyst for a
reception last night at the
Embassy of the Syrian Arab
Republic.
A medical doctor-turned-
politico, DR.. Bachir Al-Az-
meh is the Deputy Premier
of Syria. He and his wife
were honored by Ambassador
and Mrs. Abou Richie at an
Bpm. buffet dinner.
The former premier of
Syria who received his pres
ent appointment when a new
cabinet was formed, heads
his nations delegation to the
United Nations He entered
politics in 1862, after serv-
ing as professor at Damas-
cas- University and Minister
of Health.
Mrs. Azmeh is a former
science teacher in a Damas-
cas- secondary school. None
of her four children are
heading for medical careers,
but will attend schools in
America.
Arriving guests found
themselves in a world of
books. They lined the en-
bassy walls, and many were
first editions which Ambas-
sador Abou Richie collects.
The dean of Arab poets, the
Ambassador spoke of writing
poetry as a substitute for liv-
ing it.
Poetry is looking back
ward-or forward-at mo-
mentS lived, but it is not
for the moment" he said re-
peatedly to guests inquiring
about his craft. The man
who writes it we'll enough to
have had many books pub
lished advised his audience
to Give poetry"
The Syrian Foreign Min
lister was doing just that. Mr..
Rashad Jabri was a lively
guest who holds the rare dis
tinction of never having lost
an election. A kind of per
manent" parliamentarian, he
faces reelection soon but is
not expected to encounter
much more opposition than
before.
