VOLUME XXXIV, No. 21 GREENSBORO, N. C. MARCH 6, 1963 " The Cream trf CoUege News9 Student Council Sends Delegation To N.Y.C. Confab The Student CouncU sent a delegation to the conference of the proposed Youth Corps, at American University in Washington, D. C. last week. The delegation consisted of CecU Butler and Steve Robinson. The National Youth Corps idea was suggested by President Kennedy early in February. The N. Y. C, if estabUshed, wiU be closely patterned after the overseas Peace Corps. It will be open to men and women who are at least 18 years of age — young people as weU as retired individuals. People who volunteer to serve in the N. Y. C. must be coUege students or graduates, or have some specific skiUs in working with people and their problems. A volunteer who is accepted for the Youth Corps, wiU have several week's training in some special branch of work to be undertaken by the new group. A volunteer is expected to serve 12 months, including his training period. Like the Peace Corps members, N. Y. C. volunteers wiU receive a living aUowance but no pay while in service. At the end of their service volunteers wUl receive a lump sum — possibly $75 a month for the time they served. This amount is the same the Peace Corps members receive now. It is hoped that 500 volunteers wiU form the initial group with an eventual strength of up to 5,000 members to be reached in 3 years. Volunteers wiU be sent to areas that request their services; and projects undertaken wiU be under the direction of local authorities. The N. Y. C, if established, wUl make a significant contribution in curbing juvenile deUnquency. Other areas in which volunteers will possibly serve are among older people, children of working mothers, among Indians on reservations, hospital patients, and migatory workers. The conference was addressed by Attorney General Robert Kennedy and Senator Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota. The delegates wiU make a post- conference report to the coUege sometime in the near future with the view of popularizing the new organization among students. Cornell Students Present Report On Race Study By United Press International A group of white Cornell University students who came south a year ago to study race relations were heard from yesterday regarding their impressions of the Greensboro community. David Burr, who lists himself as university chaplain, accompanied seven students who spent six days of their spring vacation Uving at A&T CoUege in Greensboro, a state-supported Negro institution. Burr emphasizes in the 12-page report that, whUe trying to reflect the actions and impressions "of the projected group as a whole," the report was "significantly influenced by the personal views of its writer." The group found racial injustices, backers of the Black MusUm cult, white coUege students with guUty social consciences and provincialism manifested in North Caro- Una's second largest city which, in 1960, gave birth to the Southern sit-in movement against segregated lunch counters. (CONTINUED ON PAGE 6) Spring Quarter Registration Will Be Held March 12 And 13 In The Charles Moore Gym Evening Students Are Urged To Register During Regular Alloted Time If Possible Two students at A&T CoUege, Minnie Ruth Ruffin, left, Tarboro, a major in foods and nutrition and minor in chemistry, and Betty Jean Barr, right, Wilson, a major in home economics education, both top- ranking seniors, are entered in the national competition for the 1963 PUlsbury Awards. Minnie Ruffin And Betty Barr Compete For Pillsbury Awards Two A&T CoUege students are entered in national competition for the 1963 PUlsbury Awards Program.

Minnie, who is also pursuing a minor in chemistry, is president of the Beta Kappa Chi Scientific Honor Society, and secretary of the Student AffiUate of the American Chemical Society, and a member of the Alpha Kappa Mu Honor Society, and the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority.

Woman's College Will Present Royal Gambit For its third annual production the Theatre of Woman's College will present Royal Gambit, a modern moraUty play by Hermann Gressieker. The play is based on the story of Henry VIII and his six wives. Its symboUsm, however, goes much further to trace the development of man from the Age of EnUghtenment to the Age of Atoms. Thus the historical events with the six wives transcend history and lead to an idea that the scientific and military problems and emphasis of today are a result of this age when man turned away from God and looked upon themselves as "AU powerful." The play is under the direction of Kathryn EngUsh with set design by Minor Rootes. Costumes to be made in the Theatre's costume shop are designed by NeU Rootes. Production dates for Royal Gambit are March 14, 15, and 16, with curtain time at 8:00 P.M. The box office opens March 7 and remains open Monday through Saturday, 2 until 5 P.M. Admission price is $1.50 for adults, $1.00 for coUege students and 50c for high school age and under. The Richard B.
