MECHA member regrets Bilingual education makes
e~dorsement of student leaders barrios more beautiful
By Leo Gallegos
MECHA members during the
past student body elections believed that election of the present student body adminis tration
of President Phil Sherwood and
Vice Presidents Dave Collins
and Chuck Deveau would be in
the best interests of the minorities on campus . Thus , MECHA
proceeded to endorse these three
candidates.
Guess wh at? Change?
No cha nge, just a li ttle more
sophistication in their rhetoric.
But , friends , it all adds up to the
same thing - a rip-off on crucial
issues , such as giving the student
association back the funds we requested from l"l)oney that was intended for EOP students in the
first place.
The Canons of Journalism will
not permit me to write what I
felt in the gut when I was told a
student made the motion to give
the EOP Office only half the funds ,
when they know that our gracious
Gov. Reagan has cut the life out
of our program.
Thi:S writer must admit that he
also fell for the past campaign
rhetoric and would, at this time.
like to humbly apologize to all
his Chicano brothers for convincing them to work for the election
of this so - called liberal trio .
One thing I can say about the
past student body administration ,
and that is that we knew where
we were at. And "at• meant 15
hard rounds of student politicking
to attain some of our requests.
This time. we were KO'ed by a
sneak rabbit punch called liberalism half way through the fight.

Ben Durazo, a Chicano student at Fresno State College, died
last summer. Following are two poems written by Durazo
shortly before his death.
Poetry by Ben Durazo
GRAPE Fl ELDS AS A CHILD
Great clouds wired to the ground
confer and tremble
when a boy, loaded with water, passes
pulling his feet quickly from the smouldering earth.
His family has sent him, the youngest,
for the gallon jugs, that were of wine,
now covered with soaked burlap.
The brown skin blotches with the dust
that is everywhere,
his father, who is grey, has spotted him but keeps working.
And there are people now, everywhere,
bobbing in and out of the leaves
eating from the clouds
that tug at the ground.
IN THE EARTH THAT ROLLS UP BETWEEN MY TOES
CLINGS TO THE BOOTS OF MY FATHER
ENVELOPS ME, CALLS AND WAITS
My teeth are white, they have bitten into trees
I have pulled away from the muscle and flesh
of wolves and dogs, pulled my eyelids over
my eyes. My hands have turned to daggers.
t haven't asked you what you want.
Carry me, I have no legs.
An expensive mink coat is walking down the street
toward me.
I am appf!al ing to god. It is not comp! ete.
I am embraced. I am afraid to walk into hotels.
In the winter the branches hang on the fog.
-Ben Dur~zo

Today marks this year's first edition of La Voz de Aztlan, a
special edition of the Dally Collegian put_ out by Fresno State College's Chicano students.
Special editions were established more than two years ago as a ,
means of providing minority students with more equitable coverage
tn the campus press. They are an attempt to open communication
channels with FSC.'s non-minority community, as well as a way of
lnstllltng a greater sense of identity among minority groups,
In the past, many students have made the mistake of refusing to
read minority editions, dismissing• them as inflated rhetoric. This
is unfortunate, !or it is such persons who most need to hear the
problems and viewpoints of those different from themselves.
Read the minority editions, meanwhile trying to place yourself
ln the position of a fellow student who differs racially and culturally
from thls nation's ruling majority. For only when there is mutual
communication, will the barriers which often separate us be removed.

Steve Soriano's commentary on
actions taken by the- Student Senate regarding a motion to sponsor
a participant in the March of
Miles was inaccurate and untrue.
It is an outright lie that Phil
Sherwood and Dave Collins were
the strongest oppone.nts to the
proposal. Sherwood did not make
one single point pro or con. When
the question of whether we could
use student funds for charities
arose, Sherwood commented that
Title 5 of the State Education
Code lists approved uses of student funds. Also in response to a
comment by Collins that one to
two hundred charities a year solicit donations , Sherwood said
that many of these are national,
not all local, charities.
Collins, as president of the
AND R-000s
senate, passed his gavel (as required if he speaks to a motion)
to the president pro tern and asked
senators to think about their priorities; whether they wanted to
spend student funds on students
or on outside groups.
Other student senators such as
Grace Solis and Jenny Bailey
were much stronger opponents of
the resolution. This is not to
condemn those who voted ag-ainst
the motion, but to inform students
that Soriano misrepresented the
facts and made up the quotes.
(The tape of the meeting is available.)
Soriano said, "the cruel inhuman character of the Student
Senate once again came into the
open." A few examples of our
"cruel inhuman character" include donations for scholarships,
loan funds, the Student Advisement Center, the Day Care Center, the Summer Institute for
minority students and contributions to the EOP budget.

the purpose of helping minority
. businessmen in .the Fresno l;lrea.
The program has been continued
through the tall semester and,
hopetully, into the spring semester with the hope of encouraging
additional business students to
entr.r thls area of the business
curriculum.
· The purpose of this class ts to
provide the businessmen with
current business research material as well as faculty and
student help.
At the present ,time, the students are working with four business in the Fresno area. One of
the projects of the class is to
help businessmen compile financial packages to present to financial institutions when they want
to start or expand their businesses. This program not only helps
the businessmen, but it also provides practical experience and
involvement of the students with
the outside business world.
As a result of this class, the
Chicano students have organized
the Fresno State College Chicano
Business Student Association.
This association is an affiliate
of the recently formed California
Chicano Business Student Ass.ociation.
The California Association met
on October 9 and 10 at UCLA
to ratify their constitution. A
delegation from FSC attended, as
did delegations from various
other colleges and universities
throughout the state. A national
convention on May 5, 1972 is currently in the planning stage.

Chicano organizations
plan national meeting
Many local and national conferences of Spanish speaking organizations and groups have come
to the consensus that escalation
of energies in our efforts to
equalize opportunity for the Spanish speaking community is necessary.
After var i o us discussions
among major · Spanish speaking
organizations over the past several months it was concluded that
a national meeting must take
place between major Chicano and
Boricua groups to develop a national strategy and to explore the
possibiUty of a national coalition
of Spanish speaking groups to deal
with the social, economic and
political problems of the Spanish
speaking people in this country.
Such a meeting was held on
October 16 and 17 in Washington,
D,C.
Letters inviting representatives of different organizations
throughout the nation were sent
out by Senator Joseph Montoya

MECHA member regrets Bilingual education makes
e~dorsement of student leaders barrios more beautiful
By Leo Gallegos
MECHA members during the
past student body elections believed that election of the present student body adminis tration
of President Phil Sherwood and
Vice Presidents Dave Collins
and Chuck Deveau would be in
the best interests of the minorities on campus . Thus , MECHA
proceeded to endorse these three
candidates.
Guess wh at? Change?
No cha nge, just a li ttle more
sophistication in their rhetoric.
But , friends , it all adds up to the
same thing - a rip-off on crucial
issues , such as giving the student
association back the funds we requested from l"l)oney that was intended for EOP students in the
first place.
The Canons of Journalism will
not permit me to write what I
felt in the gut when I was told a
student made the motion to give
the EOP Office only half the funds ,
when they know that our gracious
Gov. Reagan has cut the life out
of our program.
Thi:S writer must admit that he
also fell for the past campaign
rhetoric and would, at this time.
like to humbly apologize to all
his Chicano brothers for convincing them to work for the election
of this so - called liberal trio .
One thing I can say about the
past student body administration ,
and that is that we knew where
we were at. And "at• meant 15
hard rounds of student politicking
to attain some of our requests.
This time. we were KO'ed by a
sneak rabbit punch called liberalism half way through the fight.

Ben Durazo, a Chicano student at Fresno State College, died
last summer. Following are two poems written by Durazo
shortly before his death.
Poetry by Ben Durazo
GRAPE Fl ELDS AS A CHILD
Great clouds wired to the ground
confer and tremble
when a boy, loaded with water, passes
pulling his feet quickly from the smouldering earth.
His family has sent him, the youngest,
for the gallon jugs, that were of wine,
now covered with soaked burlap.
The brown skin blotches with the dust
that is everywhere,
his father, who is grey, has spotted him but keeps working.
And there are people now, everywhere,
bobbing in and out of the leaves
eating from the clouds
that tug at the ground.
IN THE EARTH THAT ROLLS UP BETWEEN MY TOES
CLINGS TO THE BOOTS OF MY FATHER
ENVELOPS ME, CALLS AND WAITS
My teeth are white, they have bitten into trees
I have pulled away from the muscle and flesh
of wolves and dogs, pulled my eyelids over
my eyes. My hands have turned to daggers.
t haven't asked you what you want.
Carry me, I have no legs.
An expensive mink coat is walking down the street
toward me.
I am appf!al ing to god. It is not comp! ete.
I am embraced. I am afraid to walk into hotels.
In the winter the branches hang on the fog.
-Ben Dur~zo

Today marks this year's first edition of La Voz de Aztlan, a
special edition of the Dally Collegian put_ out by Fresno State College's Chicano students.
Special editions were established more than two years ago as a ,
means of providing minority students with more equitable coverage
tn the campus press. They are an attempt to open communication
channels with FSC.'s non-minority community, as well as a way of
lnstllltng a greater sense of identity among minority groups,
In the past, many students have made the mistake of refusing to
read minority editions, dismissing• them as inflated rhetoric. This
is unfortunate, !or it is such persons who most need to hear the
problems and viewpoints of those different from themselves.
Read the minority editions, meanwhile trying to place yourself
ln the position of a fellow student who differs racially and culturally
from thls nation's ruling majority. For only when there is mutual
communication, will the barriers which often separate us be removed.

Steve Soriano's commentary on
actions taken by the- Student Senate regarding a motion to sponsor
a participant in the March of
Miles was inaccurate and untrue.
It is an outright lie that Phil
Sherwood and Dave Collins were
the strongest oppone.nts to the
proposal. Sherwood did not make
one single point pro or con. When
the question of whether we could
use student funds for charities
arose, Sherwood commented that
Title 5 of the State Education
Code lists approved uses of student funds. Also in response to a
comment by Collins that one to
two hundred charities a year solicit donations , Sherwood said
that many of these are national,
not all local, charities.
Collins, as president of the
AND R-000s
senate, passed his gavel (as required if he speaks to a motion)
to the president pro tern and asked
senators to think about their priorities; whether they wanted to
spend student funds on students
or on outside groups.
Other student senators such as
Grace Solis and Jenny Bailey
were much stronger opponents of
the resolution. This is not to
condemn those who voted ag-ainst
the motion, but to inform students
that Soriano misrepresented the
facts and made up the quotes.
(The tape of the meeting is available.)
Soriano said, "the cruel inhuman character of the Student
Senate once again came into the
open." A few examples of our
"cruel inhuman character" include donations for scholarships,
loan funds, the Student Advisement Center, the Day Care Center, the Summer Institute for
minority students and contributions to the EOP budget.

Business class
The class, Topics in Minority
Business Enterprises, began in
the second summer session tor
the purpose of helping minority
. businessmen in .the Fresno l;lrea.
The program has been continued
through the tall semester and,
hopetully, into the spring semester with the hope of encouraging
additional business students to
entr.r thls area of the business
curriculum.
· The purpose of this class ts to
provide the businessmen with
current business research material as well as faculty and
student help.
At the present ,time, the students are working with four business in the Fresno area. One of
the projects of the class is to
help businessmen compile financial packages to present to financial institutions when they want
to start or expand their businesses. This program not only helps
the businessmen, but it also provides practical experience and
involvement of the students with
the outside business world.
As a result of this class, the
Chicano students have organized
the Fresno State College Chicano
Business Student Association.
This association is an affiliate
of the recently formed California
Chicano Business Student Ass.ociation.
The California Association met
on October 9 and 10 at UCLA
to ratify their constitution. A
delegation from FSC attended, as
did delegations from various
other colleges and universities
throughout the state. A national
convention on May 5, 1972 is currently in the planning stage.

its music, songs and dances and
to maintain the interest of Chicanos in the beauty ot their native culture.
This same group performed
at various times last year
throughout the Fresno area for
grammar schools, high schools
and colleges.
The group is totally self-supporting. They have recently
elected a governing board consisting of Chairman Grace Solis,
Juan Delgado, Martz Ruiz, Catarina Soto, and Linda Hernandez.

Chicano organizations
plan national meeting
Many local and national conferences of Spanish speaking organizations and groups have come
to the consensus that escalation
of energies in our efforts to
equalize opportunity for the Spanish speaking community is necessary.
After var i o us discussions
among major · Spanish speaking
organizations over the past several months it was concluded that
a national meeting must take
place between major Chicano and
Boricua groups to develop a national strategy and to explore the
possibiUty of a national coalition
of Spanish speaking groups to deal
with the social, economic and
political problems of the Spanish
speaking people in this country.
Such a meeting was held on
October 16 and 17 in Washington,
D,C.
Letters inviting representatives of different organizations
throughout the nation were sent
out by Senator Joseph Montoya

MECHA member regrets Bilingual education makes
e~dorsement of student leaders barrios more beautiful
By Leo Gallegos
MECHA members during the
past student body elections believed that election of the present student body adminis tration
of President Phil Sherwood and
Vice Presidents Dave Collins
and Chuck Deveau would be in
the best interests of the minorities on campus . Thus , MECHA
proceeded to endorse these three
candidates.
Guess wh at? Change?
No cha nge, just a li ttle more
sophistication in their rhetoric.
But , friends , it all adds up to the
same thing - a rip-off on crucial
issues , such as giving the student
association back the funds we requested from l"l)oney that was intended for EOP students in the
first place.
The Canons of Journalism will
not permit me to write what I
felt in the gut when I was told a
student made the motion to give
the EOP Office only half the funds ,
when they know that our gracious
Gov. Reagan has cut the life out
of our program.
Thi:S writer must admit that he
also fell for the past campaign
rhetoric and would, at this time.
like to humbly apologize to all
his Chicano brothers for convincing them to work for the election
of this so - called liberal trio .
One thing I can say about the
past student body administration ,
and that is that we knew where
we were at. And "at• meant 15
hard rounds of student politicking
to attain some of our requests.
This time. we were KO'ed by a
sneak rabbit punch called liberalism half way through the fight.

Ben Durazo, a Chicano student at Fresno State College, died
last summer. Following are two poems written by Durazo
shortly before his death.
Poetry by Ben Durazo
GRAPE Fl ELDS AS A CHILD
Great clouds wired to the ground
confer and tremble
when a boy, loaded with water, passes
pulling his feet quickly from the smouldering earth.
His family has sent him, the youngest,
for the gallon jugs, that were of wine,
now covered with soaked burlap.
The brown skin blotches with the dust
that is everywhere,
his father, who is grey, has spotted him but keeps working.
And there are people now, everywhere,
bobbing in and out of the leaves
eating from the clouds
that tug at the ground.
IN THE EARTH THAT ROLLS UP BETWEEN MY TOES
CLINGS TO THE BOOTS OF MY FATHER
ENVELOPS ME, CALLS AND WAITS
My teeth are white, they have bitten into trees
I have pulled away from the muscle and flesh
of wolves and dogs, pulled my eyelids over
my eyes. My hands have turned to daggers.
t haven't asked you what you want.
Carry me, I have no legs.
An expensive mink coat is walking down the street
toward me.
I am appf!al ing to god. It is not comp! ete.
I am embraced. I am afraid to walk into hotels.
In the winter the branches hang on the fog.
-Ben Dur~zo

Today marks this year's first edition of La Voz de Aztlan, a
special edition of the Dally Collegian put_ out by Fresno State College's Chicano students.
Special editions were established more than two years ago as a ,
means of providing minority students with more equitable coverage
tn the campus press. They are an attempt to open communication
channels with FSC.'s non-minority community, as well as a way of
lnstllltng a greater sense of identity among minority groups,
In the past, many students have made the mistake of refusing to
read minority editions, dismissing• them as inflated rhetoric. This
is unfortunate, !or it is such persons who most need to hear the
problems and viewpoints of those different from themselves.
Read the minority editions, meanwhile trying to place yourself
ln the position of a fellow student who differs racially and culturally
from thls nation's ruling majority. For only when there is mutual
communication, will the barriers which often separate us be removed.

Steve Soriano's commentary on
actions taken by the- Student Senate regarding a motion to sponsor
a participant in the March of
Miles was inaccurate and untrue.
It is an outright lie that Phil
Sherwood and Dave Collins were
the strongest oppone.nts to the
proposal. Sherwood did not make
one single point pro or con. When
the question of whether we could
use student funds for charities
arose, Sherwood commented that
Title 5 of the State Education
Code lists approved uses of student funds. Also in response to a
comment by Collins that one to
two hundred charities a year solicit donations , Sherwood said
that many of these are national,
not all local, charities.
Collins, as president of the
AND R-000s
senate, passed his gavel (as required if he speaks to a motion)
to the president pro tern and asked
senators to think about their priorities; whether they wanted to
spend student funds on students
or on outside groups.
Other student senators such as
Grace Solis and Jenny Bailey
were much stronger opponents of
the resolution. This is not to
condemn those who voted ag-ainst
the motion, but to inform students
that Soriano misrepresented the
facts and made up the quotes.
(The tape of the meeting is available.)
Soriano said, "the cruel inhuman character of the Student
Senate once again came into the
open." A few examples of our
"cruel inhuman character" include donations for scholarships,
loan funds, the Student Advisement Center, the Day Care Center, the Summer Institute for
minority students and contributions to the EOP budget.

Chicano students have organized
the Fresno State College Chicano
Business Student Association.
This association is an affiliate
of the recently formed California
Chicano Business Student Ass.ociation.

a national meeting must take
place between major Chicano and
Boricua groups to develop a national strategy and to explore the
possibiUty of a national coalition
of Spanish speaking groups to deal
with the social, economic and
political problems of the Spanish
speaking people in this country.
Such a meeting was held on
October 16 and 17 in Washington,

MECHA member regrets Bilingual education makes
e~dorsement of student leaders barrios more beautiful
By Leo Gallegos
MECHA members during the
past student body elections believed that election of the present student body adminis tration
of President Phil Sherwood and
Vice Presidents Dave Collins
and Chuck Deveau would be in
the best interests of the minorities on campus . Thus , MECHA
proceeded to endorse these three
candidates.
Guess wh at? Change?
No cha nge, just a li ttle more
sophistication in their rhetoric.
But , friends , it all adds up to the
same thing - a rip-off on crucial
issues , such as giving the student
association back the funds we requested from l"l)oney that was intended for EOP students in the
first place.
The Canons of Journalism will
not permit me to write what I
felt in the gut when I was told a
student made the motion to give
the EOP Office only half the funds ,
when they know that our gracious
Gov. Reagan has cut the life out
of our program.
Thi:S writer must admit that he
also fell for the past campaign
rhetoric and would, at this time.
like to humbly apologize to all
his Chicano brothers for convincing them to work for the election
of this so - called liberal trio .
One thing I can say about the
past student body administration ,
and that is that we knew where
we were at. And "at• meant 15
hard rounds of student politicking
to attain some of our requests.
This time. we were KO'ed by a
sneak rabbit punch called liberalism half way through the fight.

Ben Durazo, a Chicano student at Fresno State College, died
last summer. Following are two poems written by Durazo
shortly before his death.
Poetry by Ben Durazo
GRAPE Fl ELDS AS A CHILD
Great clouds wired to the ground
confer and tremble
when a boy, loaded with water, passes
pulling his feet quickly from the smouldering earth.
His family has sent him, the youngest,
for the gallon jugs, that were of wine,
now covered with soaked burlap.
The brown skin blotches with the dust
that is everywhere,
his father, who is grey, has spotted him but keeps working.
And there are people now, everywhere,
bobbing in and out of the leaves
eating from the clouds
that tug at the ground.
IN THE EARTH THAT ROLLS UP BETWEEN MY TOES
CLINGS TO THE BOOTS OF MY FATHER
ENVELOPS ME, CALLS AND WAITS
My teeth are white, they have bitten into trees
I have pulled away from the muscle and flesh
of wolves and dogs, pulled my eyelids over
my eyes. My hands have turned to daggers.
t haven't asked you what you want.
Carry me, I have no legs.
An expensive mink coat is walking down the street
toward me.
I am appf!al ing to god. It is not comp! ete.
I am embraced. I am afraid to walk into hotels.
In the winter the branches hang on the fog.
-Ben Dur~zo

Child of the Dork/Luis Salinas
Through the night
that I didn't sleep
I would think of yo □
and of the many
merry grounds we've been in
I ike the time you fell
out of the sky
and I _could think
of no other place
for you to fal I
but on the ground
or the time you broke
your thumb crocheting
you wanted to be a woman
and all, I could
say was stop
your hurting me
hut you know something
you must be away,
the wh i t e horse s of Mexico swirling
but, becau se in th e p r ison of my heart
is a cell ·for y ou
I cal I I ik e th e soldier
about to die into the night
if the night were a glass or a river
I would invite
you into it
and drink
darkness fading into dawn
Now th e sweet people dance
to the tunes of your great grandfather
who's viol in
was the music of your town
Sweet lady
I beckon you on
and kiss the
nostrils of eternity
like an ima~1ination
without a tim ll
with the eyes of doves
formed in the shap e
of oceans
beneath your Polach smile
Today
I am no' match

Today marks this year's first edition of La Voz de Aztlan, a
special edition of the Dally Collegian put_ out by Fresno State College's Chicano students.
Special editions were established more than two years ago as a ,
means of providing minority students with more equitable coverage
tn the campus press. They are an attempt to open communication
channels with FSC.'s non-minority community, as well as a way of
lnstllltng a greater sense of identity among minority groups,
In the past, many students have made the mistake of refusing to
read minority editions, dismissing• them as inflated rhetoric. This
is unfortunate, !or it is such persons who most need to hear the
problems and viewpoints of those different from themselves.
Read the minority editions, meanwhile trying to place yourself
ln the position of a fellow student who differs racially and culturally
from thls nation's ruling majority. For only when there is mutual
communication, will the barriers which often separate us be removed.

Steve Soriano's commentary on
actions taken by the- Student Senate regarding a motion to sponsor
a participant in the March of
Miles was inaccurate and untrue.
It is an outright lie that Phil
Sherwood and Dave Collins were
the strongest oppone.nts to the
proposal. Sherwood did not make
one single point pro or con. When
the question of whether we could
use student funds for charities
arose, Sherwood commented that
Title 5 of the State Education
Code lists approved uses of student funds. Also in response to a
comment by Collins that one to
two hundred charities a year solicit donations , Sherwood said
that many of these are national,
not all local, charities.
Collins, as president of the
AND R-000s
senate, passed his gavel (as required if he speaks to a motion)
to the president pro tern and asked
senators to think about their priorities; whether they wanted to
spend student funds on students
or on outside groups.
Other student senators such as
Grace Solis and Jenny Bailey
were much stronger opponents of
the resolution. This is not to
condemn those who voted ag-ainst
the motion, but to inform students
that Soriano misrepresented the
facts and made up the quotes.
(The tape of the meeting is available.)
Soriano said, "the cruel inhuman character of the Student
Senate once again came into the
open." A few examples of our
"cruel inhuman character" include donations for scholarships,
loan funds, the Student Advisement Center, the Day Care Center, the Summer Institute for
minority students and contributions to the EOP budget.

Business class
The class, Topics in Minority
Business Enterprises, began in
the second summer session tor
the purpose of helping minority
. businessmen in .the Fresno l;lrea.
The program has been continued
through the tall semester and,
hopetully, into the spring semester with the hope of encouraging
additional business students to
entr.r thls area of the business
curriculum.
· The purpose of this class ts to
provide the businessmen with
current business research material as well as faculty and
student help.
At the present ,time, the students are working with four business in the Fresno area. One of
the projects of the class is to
help businessmen compile financial packages to present to financial institutions when they want
to start or expand their businesses. This program not only helps
the businessmen, but it also provides practical experience and
involvement of the students with
the outside business world.
As a result of this class, the
Chicano students have organized
the Fresno State College Chicano
Business Student Association.
This association is an affiliate
of the recently formed California
Chicano Business Student Ass.ociation.
The California Association met
on October 9 and 10 at UCLA
to ratify their constitution. A
delegation from FSC attended, as
did delegations from various
other colleges and universities
throughout the state. A national
convention on May 5, 1972 is currently in the planning stage.

and colleges.
The group is totally self-supporting. They have recently
elected a governing board consisting of Chairman Grace Solis,
Juan Delgado, Martz Ruiz, Catarina Soto, and Linda Hernandez.

Chicano organizations
plan national meeting
Many local and national conferences of Spanish speaking organizations and groups have come
to the consensus that escalation
of energies in our efforts to
equalize opportunity for the Spanish speaking community is necessary.
After var i o us discussions
among major · Spanish speaking
organizations over the past several months it was concluded that
a national meeting must take
place between major Chicano and
Boricua groups to develop a national strategy and to explore the
possibiUty of a national coalition
of Spanish speaking groups to deal
with the social, economic and
political problems of the Spanish
speaking people in this country.
Such a meeting was held on
October 16 and 17 in Washington,
D,C.
Letters inviting representatives of different organizations
throughout the nation were sent
out by Senator Joseph Montoya
(N. Mex.), Rep. Manuel Lujan(N.
