AVANT-GARDE AUTHOR:
Jones Discusses His Writing

Across Campus

STUDENT ZIONIST ORGANIZATION
of Hillel
Invites everyone to a
SUNDAY BRUNCH

By FRANCES HYNES
A bearded, spectacled and con-
servatively suited LeRoi Jones.
spoke last night to a large crowd
in the Union Ballroom.
A contemporary and avant-
garde playwright and poet, Jones
read and commented on excerpts
from his latest novel, "The Sys-
tem of Satan" and read some of
his poems, published and unpub-
lished. He commented at the out-
set that frequently the poems
prove "purely literary" when read
aloud-that is their meaning and
excellence often diminishes with
the change in medium.
Jones chose to "skip through
the book" and a group of unpub-
lished poems selecting the ones he
felt like reading at the moment
rather than adhering to a planned
program.
Most: ofthe poems: related in
some way to the problems of the
Negro -with -himself and with his
white counterparts in America to-
day. Many look toward youth since
Jones regards himself as "one of
the younger poets" in New York
today.
Jones drew a parallel' between
the development of contemporary
poetry with the development of
pop art. The New York poets are
not. only using "the rhythm of
everyday speech," but are: incor-
porating the everyday cliche into
their work, much as pop art em-
ploys everyday objects, he said.
A society-oriented satire and
humor pervaded most of the
poems, as well as the excerpt from
"The System of Dante's Hell."
Jones takes aim at the white world
in particular; the world, Negroes
included, in general.
Jones explained that he had ar-
ranged "The System of Dante's

Hell" on the basis of Dante's "In-
ferno"--in relatively separate, epi-
sodic parts. "The book is basically
about my childhood and gang
days in New Jersey," he said,.
pointing out that he tried to make
"more than a literary parallel"
between his own life and the "In-
ferno."
Jones' voice, manner rand ges-
tures were capably controlled and

effectively held the attention of
the audieuce. Yet he read in a
monotonex with a distinct tendency
to allow the last and frequently
the most important line of each
poem to trail off into mumbles.
When asked what poets had in-
fluenced his own work, Jones re-
plied that the number is enor-
mous, but cited T. S. Eliot and
Richard Wright as examples.
