For the Record

■ Stokely Carmichael (welcome home!) and wife Miriam Makeba jetted to New York’s Town Hall, where Stokely happily predicted “a long hard struggle— the bloodiest revolution in history.” . . . Eldridge Cleaver, writing from Algiers, calls for an all-out “race war.” Word in Black Panther circles is that Cleaver’s on his way back to put the Panther Party together again. David Hilliard, current leader (on record as calling for the murder of Richard Nixon), not considered bright enough for the job. . . . Black Panthers meeting at Malcolm X Community College in Chicago announce they’ll present mass petition to the UN charging that the U.S. commits “crimes of genocide against black people.” . . . In Gary not-so-militant black Mayor Richard G. Hatcher, who won election by campaigning against white slumlords, exposed as part-owner of a tenement in Gary’s Negro slum.

■ Conservative organizations continue to proliferate. Newest is American Council for World Freedom, led by John Fisher, Dr. Walter Judd, Dr. Stefan Possony, Lee Edwards and the Rev. Daniel Lyons S.J. . . . Also new: the Charles Edison Youth Fund, headed by David Jones, former YAF leader. Edison Youth Fund will hold summer seminars at Georgetown University and raise money for college scholarships for conservatives. . . . And it doesn’t always take an orgnization—one man alone can sometimes swing it. At Columbia SDSers tried to occupy Professor Harold Barger’s office. Vincent Rigdon, 19- year-old YAF leader, put his back to door and chased them off.
