OCEAN CITY (N.J.) SENTINEL-LEDGER<br />

At Stockton conference<br />

Abernathy urges 'militant non-violence 9<br />

By TIM FAHERTY<br />

The problems <strong>of</strong> blacks and<br />

poor people in the north are<br />

"much more severe" than they<br />

. were in the south at the height<br />

<strong>of</strong> the civil rights movement,<br />

according to noted civil rights<br />

leader Reverend Ralph David<br />

Abernathy.<br />

Abernathy, who led many<br />

peaceful demonstrations along<br />

with Dr. Martin Luther King in<br />

the '60s and who succeeded<br />

King as president <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Southern Christian Leadership<br />

Conference, was speaking at<br />

Stockton State College,<br />

Tuesday, as part <strong>of</strong> the colleges<br />

distinguished lecture series.<br />

At a press conference<br />

Tuesday afternoon, prior to a<br />

lecture that evening,' Abernathy<br />

described how the focus<br />

<strong>of</strong> the civil rights movement<br />

has changed. He said the<br />

movement is now concerned<br />

with the problems facing poor<br />

people, "the majority <strong>of</strong> whom<br />

are in the white community."<br />

The greatest problem facing<br />

this "new thrust" is unemployment,<br />

Abernathy said. In<br />

the husky, eloquent voice that<br />

brought him to the forefront <strong>of</strong><br />

civil rights activity, Abernathy<br />

spoke <strong>of</strong> "bread and butter<br />

issues," and said the<br />

movements goal must be<br />

"adequate income for all<br />

"There is a great need for a<br />

national health insurance<br />

plan," he said.<br />

Abernathy advocates "a<br />

more militant non-violence,"<br />

and said blacks and poor whites<br />

must "take to the streets" once<br />

again to "put their bodies on the<br />

line."<br />

He said the movement has to<br />

be non-violent because "we do<br />

not have the masses <strong>of</strong> the<br />

people behind us," and no<br />

outbreak <strong>of</strong> violence in this<br />

country could last "more than<br />

three days."<br />

He said he believes, as King<br />

did, that non-violence is "the<br />

most potent weapon available."<br />

Looking back at the sixties,<br />

Abernathy said he regrets that<br />

so much emphasis was placed<br />

on political issues, and none on<br />

economic issues. "It never<br />

should have gone in that<br />

direction only."<br />

But, he said, it is time for<br />

people to put aside their<br />

apathy, and for "youths to<br />

realize the future is theirs.<br />

"There Is too much silence on<br />

college campuses," he said.<br />

"Where are the songs?"<br />

He said the civil rights<br />

movement ended when "black<br />

people fell for tokenism,".and<br />

their leaders were "bought<br />

<strong>of</strong>f.v<br />

Speaking <strong>of</strong> the apathy that<br />

now seems to have hold <strong>of</strong><br />

youth, Abernathy said, "I was<br />

in Jail 42 times, andmy son isn't<br />

even registered to vote."<br />

The Reverend<br />

Ralph David Abernathy<br />

Abernathy, who recently<br />

testified before the senate<br />

committee investigating the<br />

assassination <strong>of</strong> King, said, "I<br />

don't think the truth will ever<br />

be known.<br />

"I believe very firmly there<br />

was a conspiracy," he said.<br />

Although he believes the<br />

committee proved "James<br />

Earl Ray was the trigger<br />

man," Abernathy said<br />

"someone very high up in this<br />

country" killed King because <strong>of</strong><br />

his opposition to the war in<br />

Vietnam and his movement to<br />

attack problems in the north,<br />

looking far "a more equal<br />

distribution <strong>of</strong> wealth."<br />

Abernathy is going this week<br />

to meet with Ray to see what<br />

steps can be taken to get him a<br />

new trial. "Somebody gave him<br />

money," he said.<br />

was a great reaction.<br />

She was greeted by two hours<br />

<strong>of</strong> applause at the annual<br />

Boardwalk Parade last<br />

Tuesday, always a highlight for<br />

any Miss New Jersey but<br />

especially for the first Atlantic<br />

<strong>City</strong> area woman to win that<br />

title in more than 30 years.<br />

Each preliminary night in<br />

Atlantic <strong>City</strong>'s gigantic Convention<br />

Hall, Bert Parks<br />

received an equally gigantic<br />

ovation when he presented Miss<br />

New Jersey to the 23,000 people<br />

who attended the three nights.<br />

Laurie was interviewed by<br />

the panel <strong>of</strong> Judges on Wednesday<br />

afternoon ("My mind<br />

went blank when they asked me<br />

to name New Jersey's two<br />

Senators," she said, "but<br />

otherwise it was a pretty good<br />

interview.") <strong>On</strong> Wednesday<br />

evening she competed in<br />

evening gown, telling the huge<br />

audience shewas "froma shore<br />

community called <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>City</strong>"<br />

during her 15-second welcome.<br />

Thursday was Laurie's<br />

toughest night. She presented<br />

her new talent, a comedy dance<br />

to "Money, Money" from<br />

"Cabaret" that was developed<br />

heavily around facial expressions.<br />

It replaced her<br />

"Artful Dodger" skit from<br />

"Oliver" which failed to<br />

receive copyright approval for<br />

network TV.<br />

"While I was out there I kept<br />

saying to myself, 'what are you<br />

doing out here dancing'," she<br />

said after Thursday night's<br />

performance. "I worked hard<br />

for five weeksbut I never really<br />

felt truly comfortable with that<br />

number."<br />

Carolyn Cline <strong>of</strong> Florida, who<br />

sang "Love Story" while accompanying<br />

herself on the<br />

piano, shared the talent award<br />

that night with rlwwiffll pianist<br />

Guylyn Remmenga <strong>of</strong><br />

Nebraska.<br />

<strong>On</strong> Friday night it was<br />

swimsuit competition. Laurie<br />

wore a solid, light-blue suit. The<br />

winner in her group was Miss<br />

Delaware, Janice Albro.<br />

"I was relieved, but tired,<br />

after Friday night's competition<br />

ended," she said. "It<br />

was all over, there was nothing<br />

more we could do. I didn't feel I<br />

had a very good chance <strong>of</strong><br />

making the top 10 among that<br />

tremendous competition. •<br />

Saturday night Laurie made<br />

an early appearance on the<br />

NBC-TV show and was seen<br />

again a few times near the end.<br />

What about the new Miss<br />

America? "She is a very nice<br />

person. I think people who meet<br />

her this year will like her very<br />

much." Laurie and Miss<br />

Homemakers<br />

set new director<br />

Mrs. Gwen Campbell, newly<br />

elected director <strong>of</strong> the Visiting<br />

Homemakers, was introduced<br />

at the monthly meeting <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Board <strong>of</strong> Directors Monday<br />

afternoon at Port-O-Call.<br />

Plans were announced for the<br />

annual Dessert Card Party to<br />

be held Wednesday, October 18<br />

from 1 to 4 p.m. on the Music<br />

Pier. There will be table and<br />

An open in-service meeting<br />

will be held October 17 at 8 p.m.<br />

in the Youth Center. The<br />

subject, Heart Attack, will be<br />

presented by Dr. Robert<br />

and Mrs. Kay Green. This<br />

meeting and discussion is open<br />
