L. _to R.: Mrs. and Mr. Henry Jules, Mrs. Frank Johnson, Author Alex
Haley, Mrs. and Dr. Noel Smith.
Alex Haley, Author of "Autobiography of
Malcolm X" Visits Fresno
Alex Haley, author of "The Autobiography
of Malcom X," admits
he was "hooked" on black history
at an early age. The result of his
early exposure to black heritageas
a boy of 5 listening to the family
history as told by his maternal
grandmother -is the forthcoming
saga "Roots," a book that spans
seven generations and 265 years
of black ancestry.
The personable black author,
lecturer and world traveler recently
offered black Fresnans a "look behind
the scenes" into the writing
of his latest book, which is to be
published next spring.
In an interview Haley said he
has four to five months of "hard,
hard work" ahead of him before it
is finished. He has been researching
and writing the book for the
last seven years.
Asked what the book means to
Grapevine 18
him, Haley replied, " It means a
sense of, well, just that-rootsnot
just to my family but to all
black people.
" What it really is, is the saga of
a people. Because if you tell the
story of one black man, then you've
told the story of every one of us."
Haley traces his roots to an African
tribe who was taken to Maryland
on a slave ship in 1767. He
sa id he has spent considerable
time and traveled hundreds of
thousands of miles to verify his
family's ancestry.
Haley is known best for his indepth
interviews, which led him to
write the as-told-to autobiography
of Malcom X. A best seller, "The
Autobiography of Malcom X" was
named one of the l O most notable
books of the l 960's and has sold
more than four million copies since
being published in 1965.

St. Mary's College S~spends Classes-Cancels
Before the St. Mary's-Santa Clara
basketball game started recently,
a San Francisco radio station was
alerted that "something of historical
significance" would transpire
at the contest.
What of historical significance
could take place? The visiting

and were expected to be s:iundly

so the authorities searched the

bags, but found nothing.
The bomb, one of a different nature,
however, went off dramatically
at halftime when Herman Brown,
the Gaels' starting center until he
was declared out for the year with
rheumatic fever, came onto the Odell Johnson, Jr.

White who was born in Pine

not only for his athletic ability but
his participation in service club
and community activities.
He lettered all four years-permissable

and basketball for the Tigers. He
was the star on Edison's first Central

Police, served as commander of
American Leg ion Post 51 l, was
president of the Edison Boosters

Angela Davis
Angela Davis
Just five days before she was
due to go on trial, Angela Davis
finally made it to freedom. After
16 months in prison and seemingly
endless petitions for bail in and
out of state and federal ·courts, she
was released on $102,500 bail.
Earlier she had been thwarted by
the California provision that no
bond is granted in a capital case
in which the proof of guilt is evident
or the presumption of guilt
great. Then two weeks ago, the
death penalty was declared unconstitutionaly
in California. With the
case therefore no longer potentially
involving capital punishment, her
release became possible.
The National United Committee
March, 1972 23
to Free Angela Davis provided
$2 500 in cash and the $8,500
bo~dsman's fee toward Angela's
bond· the remainder came from a
most' remarkable source: Rodger
McAfee, 33, a white farmer who
put up 405 acres of his family's
l,l 00-acre cooperative farm near
Fresno, Calif., as collateral for the
remaining $100,000. McAfee said
he had given the deed covering the
property to the Communist Party's
Northern California section a year
ago for eventual bonding purposes.
''I'm just a working man who
agrees with the philosophy of Angela
Davis," McAfee said. Then he
left the Palo Alto jail to return
home "because I have to milk my
cows.
His homecoming was not pleasant.
No sooner had word of his
deeds on Angela's behalf got out
than his four school-age sons were
expelled from school, ostensibly on
the !=jrounds that he no longer lived
in the school district, but in fact,
admitted the principal, "under" tremendous
pressure" from the community.
He also got such vitrolic
phone calls that he went out and
bought a rifle.
Superior Court Judge Richard Arnason
stipulated in granting bail
that Angela neither leave the area
nor participate in public rallies
without perm1ss1on of the court.
Looking better than she had in
months, a smiling Angela told reporters,
"This has been a true victory,
a people's victory-not only
my release but the abolition of
cap,ital punishment." Then she went
back to preparing for her trial on
murder, kidnaping and conspiracy
charges for allegedly providing
four guns used in the August 1970
Marin County courthouse shootout .
in which a judge, two convicts and
an accomplice were killed.

L. _to R.: Mrs. and Mr. Henry Jules, Mrs. Frank Johnson, Author Alex
Haley, Mrs. and Dr. Noel Smith.
Alex Haley, Author of "Autobiography of
Malcolm X" Visits Fresno
Alex Haley, author of "The Autobiography
of Malcom X," admits
he was "hooked" on black history
at an early age. The result of his
early exposure to black heritageas
a boy of 5 listening to the family
history as told by his maternal
grandmother -is the forthcoming
saga "Roots," a book that spans
seven generations and 265 years
of black ancestry.
The personable black author,
lecturer and world traveler recently
offered black Fresnans a "look behind
the scenes" into the writing
of his latest book, which is to be
published next spring.
In an interview Haley said he
has four to five months of "hard,
hard work" ahead of him before it
is finished. He has been researching
and writing the book for the
last seven years.
Asked what the book means to
Grapevine 18
him, Haley replied, " It means a
sense of, well, just that-rootsnot
just to my family but to all
black people.
" What it really is, is the saga of
a people. Because if you tell the
story of one black man, then you've
told the story of every one of us."
Haley traces his roots to an African
tribe who was taken to Maryland
on a slave ship in 1767. He
sa id he has spent considerable
time and traveled hundreds of
thousands of miles to verify his
family's ancestry.
Haley is known best for his indepth
interviews, which led him to
write the as-told-to autobiography
of Malcom X. A best seller, "The
Autobiography of Malcom X" was
named one of the l O most notable
books of the l 960's and has sold
more than four million copies since
being published in 1965.

St. Mary's College S~spends Classes-Cancels
Before the St. Mary's-Santa Clara

a San Francisco radio station was
alerted that "something of historical
significance" would transpire
at the contest.
What of historical significance

Angela Davis
Angela Davis
Just five days before she was
due to go on trial, Angela Davis
finally made it to freedom. After
16 months in prison and seemingly
endless petitions for bail in and
out of state and federal ·courts, she
was released on $102,500 bail.
Earlier she had been thwarted by
the California provision that no
bond is granted in a capital case
in which the proof of guilt is evident
or the presumption of guilt
great. Then two weeks ago, the
death penalty was declared unconstitutionaly
in California. With the
case therefore no longer potentially
involving capital punishment, her
release became possible.
The National United Committee
March, 1972 23
to Free Angela Davis provided
$2 500 in cash and the $8,500
bo~dsman's fee toward Angela's
bond· the remainder came from a
most' remarkable source: Rodger
McAfee, 33, a white farmer who
put up 405 acres of his family's
l,l 00-acre cooperative farm near
Fresno, Calif., as collateral for the
remaining $100,000. McAfee said
he had given the deed covering the
property to the Communist Party's
Northern California section a year
ago for eventual bonding purposes.
''I'm just a working man who
agrees with the philosophy of Angela
Davis," McAfee said. Then he
left the Palo Alto jail to return
home "because I have to milk my
cows.
His homecoming was not pleasant.
No sooner had word of his
deeds on Angela's behalf got out
than his four school-age sons were
expelled from school, ostensibly on
the !=jrounds that he no longer lived
in the school district, but in fact,
admitted the principal, "under" tremendous
pressure" from the community.
He also got such vitrolic
phone calls that he went out and
bought a rifle.
Superior Court Judge Richard Arnason
stipulated in granting bail
that Angela neither leave the area
nor participate in public rallies
without perm1ss1on of the court.
Looking better than she had in
months, a smiling Angela told reporters,
"This has been a true victory,
a people's victory-not only
my release but the abolition of
cap,ital punishment." Then she went
back to preparing for her trial on
murder, kidnaping and conspiracy
charges for allegedly providing
four guns used in the August 1970
Marin County courthouse shootout .
in which a judge, two convicts and
an accomplice were killed.
