If It's Tuesday-
By MARCIA ABRAMSON
Opening tonight at the Michigan is a plain old
silly movie. 'Sometimes funny, occasionally bor-
ing, but mostly just silly. It even has a "G" rat-
ing, which is something you don't see very often
anymore.-
Everyone knows what they say about those
whirlwind 18 - countries - in - 17 - days tours of
Europe: Don't go. But somehow or other, people
keep going. What do they see? Shows for the
tourists. What bargains do they pick up from the
famed European craftsmen? Made in Japan. The
tour scene is a complete sham..
-If It's Tuesday This Must Be Belgium could
have been a really funny movie about European,
tours. As it is, there are some funny scenes as the
tourists discover-&r the director (Mel Stuart)
reveals to the audience-that they are being
duped. But the movie slips into general mediocrity
because this potential is ignored in favor of stereo-
typed characters and stock situations.
What we get is a collection of middle-aged
couples, played by such assorted luminaries as
Peggy Cass; a "teenager;" a World War ,1 veteran
coming back to relive the good old da s. The,
middle aged couples argue a lot, which st ps' e-
ing funny almost immediately. The teenager com-
plains about her parents and picks up what is
apparently David Wolper's idea of a student radi-
cal type, played by none other than Luke Halpin,
who will probably shock most of the viewers of
this film when they-remember what a cute clean-
cut kid he used.to be on Flipper.
Luke is now a dropout from the University of
Pennsylvania who is leader of a "movement'" No

SPECIAL STATUS:
Yale offers places
to disputed entrants
his must be silly
attempt is made to give him an ideology; he just
talks about marches and arrests and "our guys.'
Mostly he fondles the teenager and goes to coffee
houses where people are-gasp--passing joints.
The best character is the mild-mannered milk-
toast of a kleptomaniac, who starts with an empty
suitcase and smilingly steals everything he can
get his hands on.
Another charmer is the lecher who uses his
camera with finesse, specialiting in under-skirt
and down-blouse shots. However, he is used much
too much and in too many strained situations.
The movie attempts to achieve depth through
the romance. The loose plot centers around Char-
lie (newcomer Ian MacShane), another one of
the inevitable post-Alfie chain of Cockney Don
Juans, and Miss Sam (Suzanne Pleshette), a
tough Minneapolis career girl who knows what
it's all about. Eventually she succumbs to Char-
lie's charms, but the romance does not last. Miss
Sam heads back for Minneapolis, even though
Charlie has offered his hand in marriage, because
she knows that it won't work. Such is the "depth;"'
giving up a trite happy ending for a trite un-
happy ending.
The nice part of If It's Tuesday , . . is the
scenery, which looks really great, and the girls,
who also look really great. Girls like Anna Maria
Alberghetti and Claudia Cardinale were somehow
induced to play brief guest shots. Actors like Mar-
tin Landau and Ben Gazzara keep turning up here
and there too. Donovan shows up and sings for a
few seconds in some youthful den of iniquity. The
title song isn't bad at all. But that's about as far
as this one ever gets.
By CAROL PINTEK
"The black man has been
colonialized bysthe American
white, and has become the
means of production for the
white economy. Since land is
essential for freedom, justice
and equality, we must get land,
we must have economic control
of our lives,"
This is the ideology' behind
the efforts of the Republic of
New Africa to form an inde-
pendent black nation from five
Southern states.
Milton Hen'y, vice-president of
the New Africa, summarized its
separatist position last night at '
Washtenaw Community College
as a speaker in the Black Aware-
ness Week program currently
being sponsored by the Black
Student Union.
Henry, a Yale Law School
graduate and currently a De-
troit lawyer, has long been a '
fervent advocate of black sepa-
ratism. The formation of the
RNA last year has given na-
tional recognition to his fight
for black freedom through the
creation of a black nation from
Louisiana, Georgia, Mississippi,
North Carolina and Alabama.
"America is the only country
in history that de-hunanized its
slaves," said Henry. "The Amer-
ican slave was not considered
a man, but a piece .of property.
The white man controlled the
black's women, his body, mind
and soul. And it's still that way
in the United States."
"We have come to believe that
we must separate to, get any-
our children. Politics isn't the
way. you can't use votes to get
power; you need power to get
votes. And control of land is es-

sential to power. Land is the
basis for freedom, justice and
equality," he said.
Henry was interrupted many
times by enthusiastic applause
from the audience of blacks and
whites filling the small audi-
torium. The approval seemed to
be as much for his personal
dynamism and optimism as for
the philosophy he advocates.
Henry may well be one of the
more expressive of the black
militants prominant today.
Henry and the New Africa
group have taken their request
for the five states first to the
Johnson administration and now
to President Nixon.
"We tried to explain to Dean
Rusk about our idea of repara-
tions," said Henry. "We asked
him, how can we have har-
mony and peace and self-trust
in this country between blacks
and whites when you've taken
everything?"
Reconciliation will be possible
only when reparations are given
to the black for his labor in
building the American econo-
my, Henry explains.
One of the largest factors
working against black self-de-
terminism is the black's own'
acceptance of a non-extreme
position, Henry believes.
"The American black is a pro-
duct of the American experience
that makes him mild and meek.
He accepts his children going
hungry in a country with vast
resources for food production.
He continues eating crumbs even
while he watches the white eat-
ing more and more," Henry said.
"I see black people every day
willing to sit down and work
with the craft unions that keep
black teenagers from learning
the skills that build our build-
ings.
"The United States is the
greatest education capital in the
world. Yet we have non-whites
who are not taught how to look
at beauty, to enjoy music and
art and ideas-when they're able
to get away from the mill long
enough."
Even though the RNA is con-
sidered extremist enough to be
investigated by the McClellan
Internal Affairs Committee, no
black in America today can be
called an extremist, Henry ex-
plains.
"Any blacks who daily puts
up with the treatment he gets
in this white nation is no extre-
mist. When my black brothers
motivate themselves to build
their own country, to control
their own economy, as some of
the African nations are doing,
may they be called 'extremist,'"
he said.
"I want my people to be out
of bondage," Henry concluded.
"The integrationist will work
against the freedom of the black
than in this nation. We've sug-
gested a proper settlement. Out
of 50 states in the union, we get
five, you get 45. If you don't
think that's fair, then turn it
around! "
Charles Thomas,,former chair-
man of the Afro-American Lib-
eration in Ann Arbor, also prof-
fered ideas on the black ideolo-
gy in the black struggle.
NEW HAVEN, Conn. (P-Seven
of the 12 students sent un-
authorized letters of admission to
Yale University's School of Art
and Architecture have been of-
ficially offered admission as "spe-
cial students."
Dean Howrad S. Weaver of the
Art and Architecture School said
last night that the "special" status
in no way reflected on the can-,
didates' qualifications, but that "it
"simply means that we cannot now
promise to offer a degree admin-
istered by an adequate Depart-
ment of City Planning."
The seven applicants, the dean
said, have the prerequisites that
would qualify them as potential
candidates for admission to other
degree programs.
Earlier yesterday a Yale spo-
kesman had said the 12 students
would "definitely not be enrolled."
This statement followed one in
which a Yale spokesman had said
all 12 would be admitted.
The spokesman said confusion
among !Yale officials resulted in
the report Tuesday 'that the 12
would be admitted-despite the
fact that three faculty members
were being disciplined for their
part in the affair.
Eight other students had been'
accepted by Yale in April. The
City Planning Forpm, an advisory
group of students and faculty
within the Department of City
Planning, recommended 12 more
students at the same time, but

said they were rebuffed in efforts
to discuss the situation with How-
ard Weaver, dean of the School of
'Art and Architecture.
Weaver said he was scheduled
to meet with representatives of
the committee last Friday, but the
group sent out the unauthorized
admission letters a few hours be-
fore that meeting was to be held.
On Tuesday, Yale President
Kingman Brewster Jr. sent a let-
ter to the eight students who had
been admitted earlier, advising
them not to enroll at Yale because
the university could not guarantee
that the degree -in city planning
would be awarded in future.
Other Yaleofficials thought
Brewster's letter had also gone
out to the 12 who had received the
unauthorized admission letters
from the faculty-student commit-
tee. Those 12 had been sent, in-
stead, a telegram from Dean
Weaver saying Yale would not ad-
mit them, a Yale spokesman said
yesterday.
