Under d
BY Dan Halligan

SCHOOL, not particularly SlIldIl Uul
not dumb. You have no money,
no prestige, no influence and no
power. At home you're not as
much appreciated as you think
you should be. At times all you
believe you're good for is to help
with the dishes or take out the
garbage. A blemish on your face
is a major catastrophe and you
don't understand why your father
laughs at your hair style or the
way you wear your shirt collar
when either is the --latest thing"
in your crowd"
Yet, as Insignificant as you be-
lieve you are, you lost as much
a part Of your lifetime as anyone
when our nations heart was
struck a mortal blow November
%.
You showed you did. You girls,
even if you cried openly at the
horrible news, you also did some
private sobbing too in the sane
tuary of your rooms.
You boys, perhaps didn't cry
las I did but when you heard
the news, you heard a howl of
anguish from within. Outwardly,
perhaps you only bit your lip.
Perhaps you looked at a distant
object and murmered, "Well,
gee" Maybe you even laughed
a little, self-consciously, because
you had to show something. But
from that split instant you knew
President Kennedy had been TAX
en- from us, your life changed,
never again to be the same.
You were lonely those first few
days and you were bewildered.
Perhaps no one knew it, perhaps
not even you, but you were. Now
that time has begun to lessen
the loneliness and bewilderment,
now that you've settled back a.
gain into the routine of your lives,
you find yourselves a little lost.
You feel even less significant than
before because you are but a
teenager or younger. You want
to do something in President Ken
nedy's memory, to give some
thing, but what? Even you Cana
dian teen-agers want to remem-
Der your great friend in a spe-
cial friend way. But how? You
don't have the money to put up
a statue. You have no authority
to rename a street in your city.
What can you do? What can
you give as a memorial? You
can dedicate your growing up
years, your thoughts, words and
deeds, to President Kennedy's
memory. Grow up to be the ty-
pc of citizen he wanted you to be.
Grow up to be the citizen he would
have been proud of. Do this and
you'll need never apologize for
not giving a memorial of some
thing material. What better mem
orial can there be than a living
one : : a dedicated, law-abiding
and God-fearing youth?
President Kennedy loved young
people. He was young himself
even though at as he might have
been called "middle-aged.' He
reflected youth in his smile, in
the way he talked and moved. He
reflected youth in his thinking
and in his actions. Most import
ant. he reflected youth in the eft.
forts he made as president in your
behalf. His legacy is you.
Myself, I'm dedicating my eff
forts to youth in memory OF the
President. Hereafter, I'LL be try
ing a little harder, working a lit
tie longer and explaining a little
more clearly in my efforts to help
YOU to grow into responsible a.
dults.

Wilkins Blasts CORE,
Other Rights Groups

porters and painted 1t as a

Mr.. wilkins said that most
of the persons arrested in
rights demonstrations in the
South have been NAACP men,
bers but that CORE members
were "the ones you heard
about"
He referred to a Joint
NAACP-CORE drive in Louis
vile, KY, in which 267 demon
Strators were arrested.

we're CORE members, and the
NAACP paid the entire $4,000

Mr.. wilkins made constant
references to financial support
being weaned away from
NAACP by the other civil rights
groups.
"Just don't go giving them
your money" he said. That
would be like a Baptist giving
all his money to the Presby-
terrain Church."
The Negro leader, looking
weary after arriving minutes
before his speech from Jack
son, Miss, told reporters that
the House Republicans "have a
very good package Of civil

Roy wilkins, executive secre-
tary of the National Association
for the Advancement Of Colored
People, bitterly attacked the
Congress of Racial Equality and
other competing civil rights
groups yesterday.
Speaking at an NAACP rally
In Carver Theater in Alexan-
dria, Va, Mr.. Wilkins charged
that the other groups furnish
the noise and get the publicity
while the NAACP furnishes the
manpower and pays the bills"
After the meeting, he told
reporters the Republican civil
rights bill now before the House
of Representatives could take
care Of most of the problems
that have arisen" in the civil
rights field.
Groups Come and Go
Mr.. wilkins claimed that
there is only one organiza-
ton that can handle a long
sustained fight-the NAACP."
He said "all the rest start q
little and then rush off some
where else. They are here to-
day, gone tomorrow"
Singled out in his attack be-
sides CORE were the Student
Nom Violent Co ordinating
Committee and the Southern
Christian Leadership Confer
ence Of the Rev. Martin Luther
King. In his strongest attack
to date, Mr.. wilkins saved
CORE for his biggest blasts as
the chief detractor Of Negro
emotional and financial sup
port from the NAACp.
While acknowledging the
NAACP, CORE and Other
groups were all fighting for the
same goals, bitterness crept into
his voice when he asked the
800 persons in the audience

beers CORE had in Jackson

declared.
