A car drives down the street, alongside the schoolyard. A shot rings out. One of the children falls dead. The others flee, screaming. But there will be no inves- tigation, no outcry, for this is one of the black townships in South Africa. The child was black. The killer was white, and not a crazed murderer, but a policeman. After the "I never realized how much of the South African government's brutality was focused on children until I saw this film." shooting, he places stones be- sides the dead child's body. The official alibi is concocted. The random murder of in- nocent children is but one of the truths that Witness to Apartheid will bring home to you. It is a film that every one of conscience must see. There is only one public showing of this powerful documentary scheduled in the Detroit area at this writing: Friday, Oct. 24 at 7:30 p.m. at the Marygrove Theatre, Marygrove College. It is worth making a special effort to attend this showing. No matter how much you have seen on television or in newspapers and magazines about apartheid, you have never been face-to-face with it as you will be when you, too, become a "Witness to Apartheid." You will see and hear the beaten and tortured victims of the state-sponsored terror. Your heart will go out to the parents of the mur- dered children. I had never realized how much of the South African government's brutality was focused on children until I saw this film. It is a terrible story, but one to which we must pay attention. The world did not want to know what was happening in Europe when the Nazis slaughtered so many mil- lions. Decent human beings, all over the globe, must never again turn their eyes away when a government violates the fundamental moral code. Another aspect of Witness to Apartheid that is particu- larly revealing, and at the same time particularly dis- turbing, is the reaction of the South African whites. Almost all of those interviewed in this documentary had never been to a black township, had no idea of what was happen- ing in them, and wondered why the blacks were making such a fuss. Others expressed quite openly the opinion that the government would simply have to use massive force in a "wipe-out" to put down the black resistance. Archbishop Desmond Tutu is used in several different parts of the film. His most moving moment comes when he wonders why he still has any influence left with his people, considering that he has been able to produce so little for them in terms of tangible progress. It took courage on the part of producer-director Sharon Sopher to make this documentary. It took courage for the blacks and sympathe- tic whites who appear in the film to speak out. It will take only a little ef- fort on your part to see it. And see it you should if you care about what's happening to fellow human beings in South Africa whose skin hap- pens to be black. Israeli Tennis Team Advances In Davis Cup New York (JTA) — Israel's national tennis team defeated host Switzerland 4-1 in the Davis Cup European Zone B final last week, moving Israel for the first time into the 16-nation final round of com- petition for the following year's cup. Most of the matches in the surprise victory were lengthy and hard-fought. Israeli veteran Shlomo Glickstein defeated Roland Stadler 4-6, 6-8, 8-6, 6-1, 4-3 (retired) when Stadler dove and broke a leg. Then Amos Mansdorael defeated Jakob Hlasek 6-2, 1-6, 6-3, 3-6, 12-10. In doubles, Hlasek and Markus Gund- hardt beat Glickstein and Shahar Perkiss 6-2, 6-4, 6-1. Israel clinched the best-of- five-match competition with Glickstein's victory over Hlasek 6-3, 1-6, 8-6, 10-12, 11-9. In the final match, Mansdorf defeated Gund- hardt 7-5, 6-3.
