Council to meet
with OU’s BPU
By LAIR1E WHITE
Minority Affairs Editor
The Big Eight Council on Black Student Govern-
ment, an organization which discusses issues affecting
black students across the country, will meet April 11-12
as a guest of the Black People’s Union.
The council is composed of three delegates from each
of the Big Eight schools and meets every semester at dif-
ferent universities to introduce and pass resolutions
concerning black students. This year marks the first
timeOU has been host to thecouncil.
The Big Eight Conference on Black Student Govern-
ment, which took place at Kansas State University in
February, saw the passage of several resolutions, one of
which voiced the council’s “irrevocable opposition to
the acceptance of Krugerrand Coins from South Africa
by the University of Nebraska,” said Roshon Magnus,
former council chair.
The gold coins, donated to the University of
Nebraska, are symbolic of racial oppression because
they are from the racist part of South Africa, Magnus
said.
He said the council was concerned because five other
Big Eight schools said they would accept the 1,300coins
valued at $900,000 if that university did not keep them.
The colleges are interested only in the money and not
concerned about the feelings of black students, Magnus
said.
The council also opposed draft registration of young
Americans “when it has been proven it is not
necessary,” Magnus said.
He said that resolutions are sent to appropriate of-
ficials to show how black students at these schools feel
about certain issues.
The council was given insight and inspiration by
events at the recent conference, Magnus said. Keynote
speaker Walter Fauntroy, congressional delegate from
Washington D.C., challenged students to become
politically active.
He introduced a Congressional Black Caucus plan
that would mobilize national black support for a Con-
stitutional amendment aimed at giving Washington,
D C. full representation in Congress.
The council will be working in coordination with
Fauntroy to implement the mobilization, Magnus said.
It also will strive for full voter registration of Blacks in
Big Eight schools, Magnus said. Each university is try-
ing to get black voting registrars to be responsible for
the registration of black students.
Other conference speakers included Bernard
Franklin, the only black member of the Kansas State
Board of Regents; Joann Collins, city council member
from Kansas City, Mo., and Charles Pace, actor from
Austin, Texas.
The conference workshops were instrumental in
spurring black students toward political and social in-
volvement, social relations among people, political
awareness, religious concerns of the black community
and student coalitions with national organizations,
Magnus said.
“I was greatly moved by the tremendous amount of
support and involvement of the conference through the
340 registrants, as well as 19 universities outside the Big
Eight which participated,” he said.
Because of these achievements, Magnus said, “we
look forward with great anticipation to the council
meeting to be hosted by OU’s Black People’s Union.”
The former president
of Mattel Inc., Samuel
Meason, will discuss the
changing role of the chief
executive officer in
business at 1:30 p.m.
Monday in 150 Adams
Hall as part of the
execu live-in-residence
program at OU.
The program, begun in
1976, is designed to give
students a first-hand look
at current issues by br-
inging business leaders to
students.
Meason, the first
execu live-in-residence
for the semester, also has
served in positions with
the state of Oklahoma,
Exxon Corp.,
McDonough Co., and
Riviana Foods Inc. in
Houston.
He currently is presi-
dent and chief executive
officer of Strategic Asset

Housewife sells
‘glass plate'
for $40; north
$1,800
NILES. III.-The story of
a small fortune, lost be-
cause a housewife had no
idea her glass plate was a
collector's item, recently
came to light.
In a letter to J. R. Mac-
Arthur. chairman of
the Bradford Exchange,
world's largest trading cen-
ter in collector's plates, a
Madison, Wise., woman
wrote: “1 had a Lalique
1965 plate . .. which I sold
to a friend for $40. I had
not heard of you at that
time."
The plate she sold is
actually valued at more
(han $1,800. Although
MacArthur points out that
this price is exceptionally
high, he said, "rm afraid
others may be losing hun-
dreds or thousands of dol-
lars by not knowing what
their plates are worth."
To aid in identifying
valuable plates, the
exchange issues a report
that includes current
prices on more than 900
plates, guidelines on what
to look for and when to
buy. and the plate evalua-
tion checklist used by the
exchange.
To obtain a copy with-
out cost or obligation, just
send your name, address,

day of next week to: The
Bradford Exchange, Dept.

Avenue, Niles. IL 60648. A
postcard will do.
