Black women feast at
special tribute dinner
(Continued from page 1)
Members of Alpha Phi Omega
Psi Phi; the sponsors, organizers
and only men allowed in the
event, welcomed all comers, and
treated the guests with unaccus-
tomed respect.
Out of respect for the occasion,
not much leg was seen at any
table as most participants wore
long dresses, African style, midi,
maxi, or pmts.
When the speakers prepared to
share some of their experiences on
black womanhood, all the men left
as instructed.
Blood drive
seeks donors
The Student Blood Bank will be
accepting new accounts today and
tomorrow in the old Faculty Club
room, first floor of the Michigan
Union.
Operating hours are between 11
a.m. and 5 p.m. today, and from
1 p.m. to 7 p.m. tomorrow.
Donors must be at least 18 years
old and weigh a minimum of 110
pounds. The entire process takes
an hour's time, with an actual
donation time of 10 minutes.'
Interested persons are urged to
sign up for the Family Plan which
calls for the donation of one pint
of blood per year to insure an
unlimited supply of blood for the
donor or his family's needs. The
blood is then free and the cost is
for the processing.
The donation drive is sponsored
by Alpha Phi Omega, Alpha Xi
Delta, Angel Flight, Gamma Phi
Beta, and the American Red Cross.
Sister Hamer talked about the
trials of being black in Mississippi,
as well as a women's role, espe-
cially a black woman in this coun-
try. Sister Karrem's topics includ-
ed the subject of self-knowledge
and modest self-respect. -
Reporters were impressed not to
reveal more of the secrets of black
women. However Sister Hamer
did consent to an interview with
The Daily.
On Shirley Chisholm's presi-
dential candidacy, she told report-
ers "I will wait to see if black
men support her and if they do
I will also support her."
She also commented on black
and white relations. "The white
manhas used- us," she said. "but
our men have them trembling."
For example, she cited that of 200
black candidates running in Mis-
sissippi today, only two of them
are women.
She concluded, "When you get
up on Wednesday, I hope you will
find out that Charles Evers has
been elected governor of Missis-
sippi, and that yours truly, Fannie
Lou Hamer is a state senator from
Sunflower County.
Before the speakers' presenta-
tion, the women feasted free of
charge on barbecue lamb, fried
chicken, macaroni and cheese,
string beans, salad, punch, cake,
or bean pie.
Although all sisters present did
not agree to everything said or
perhaps did not understand all
that the older women taught, the
whole family was quiet and re-
spectful.
Overall, however, most of the
guests appeared overwhelmed by
this tribute to black women. The
respect and thoughtfulness of the
brothers and the speakers advice
seemed to leave deep impressions
on the women.

Washington interns' program
has summer jobs for students
By ROBIN WEISS
A chance to observe the fed-'
eral government from the inside is
one :of several opportunities avail-
able to students through the Uni-
versity's Washington Internship
Program.
Operating now out of the Ca-
reer Planning and Placement Ser-
vice, this program in past sum-
mers placed students with NBC
News, The New York Times, Sen.
James Buckley ,(R-Con-N.Y.), the
Department of Transportation,
among other offices and agencies.
Students selected for the pro-
gram live at George Washington
University during their eight-
week internship. They receive no
pay for their work and living ex-
penses are approximately $500. Fi-
nancial aid is provided on a need
basis, but most interns pay their
own way.
A mass meeting for all students
interested in applying for the pro-
gram will be held tonight at 7:30
in the third floor multi-purpose
room of the UGL. Any University
student may apply for an intern-
ship through the central commit-
tee of the program, which is run
entirely by students, all of whom
are former interns. Applications
are then screened, and sent, along
with a parsonal resume to each of
the participating Washington of-
fices. The offices make the final
acceptance decisions based on
their own criteria.
(Continued from page 1)
Many students, however, chose
to register in their home towns.
For instance, while only 217 Uni-
versity of Maryland students regis-
tered to vote in College Park, Md.,
home of the school, "thousands
registered at booths set up for
Baltimore and neighboring com-
munities," a Maryland student re-
ported.
Apparently, no radical takeovers
of city councils across the country
seem imminent either. Towns such
as Berkeley, Calif., Madison, Wisc.,
and Ann Arbor, which have seen
third party movements or radicalsI
elected to councils in the pastdo
not have city elections until next
spring.
The appearance of left-oriented
candidates on ballots was also
minimized by primary elections-
often held in May or August, when
students were away from campus,
or not yet enfranchised.
Such is the case in East Lansing,
where Michigan State University
students will provide the first test'
of the 18-year-old vote in Michigan
when they elect three city council
members today.
Voters will choose from a slate
of six candidates with two more
I candidateshrunning write-incam-
paigns. Those vying include an
incumbent mayor with 12 years'
experience, a one-term incumbent,
two liberal candidates running un-
der a group called Project: City
Hall, and two students running as
write-in candidates after unsuc-
cessful primary bids.
The East Lansing election, like
races in other college towns, has
seen some issues shaped around'
the student vote. The environment,
housing, communication between
city and university, and student
participation in electoral politics
have all been issues in the East
Lansing campaigns.

Although today's election will
provide many MSU students with
their first chance to vote, many
seem apathetic. A recent poll con-
ducted by a graduate communica-
tions class reported that 42 per
cent of the students were unable
to identify the candidates, despite
recent dorm appearances. As one,
sophomore said, "I don't really
know the candidates. I registered
here, but I probably won't vote."
Some towns have seen a right-:
wing reaction to the student vote.

In Boston, Louise Day Hicks,
who gained national prominence
with her anti-busing pitch four
years ago, is challenging Mayor
Kevin White again with a law-
and-orderhcampaign, but the
campaign lines aren't distinct.
White is the odds-on favorite.
San Francisco Mayor Joseph
Alioto is laboring under the sha-
dows of a federal indictment as
he seeks a second term. Dianne
Feinstein, Board of Supervisors
president and a Democrat, is
challenging with, a strong race
in her attempt to make San
Francisco the largest city in the
country with a woman mayor.
In Cleveland, black Mayor Cail
Stokes isn't running but he is
campaigning hard for his choice
of successor, Arnold Pinkney,
the black president of the Cleve-
land School Board.
Democrat James Carney and
Republican Ralph Perk Sr., are
likely to divide the city's 60 per
cent white majority enough to
put Pinkney in office, assuming
any kind of a black voter turn-
out.

bernatorial candidate. The bid
by Charles Evers, mayor of
Fayette, Miss., and brother of
slain civil rights leader Medgar
Evers, is attracting a :ot of at-
tention, but with white voters
outnumbering blacks 7 to 3,
Democratic nominee Bill Waller
is heavily favored.
A large part of the state's 1.1
million voters is expected to turn
out for the election, which for
the first time in modern state
history may see an impressive
number of blacks taking elective
offices.
Meanwhile, Atty. Gen. John
Mitchell announced yesterday
that federal observers will be as-
signed to polling places in 16
Mississippi counties.
The 1965 Voting Rights Act
says observers may be sent to

examiners who register voters
