them to violence; and then there are the rest
of the people who pay their $10 or $12 for an
afternoon of music and find their plans
destroyed by the obnoxious few who ruin the
occasion for everyone else.
Willie Nelson's annual picnics started out
as an opportunity for a bunch of people to get
together to celebrate Independence Day in
their own way, to enjoy excellent music and
each other’s company. But violence and
rowdy fans have caused Texas authorities to
frown upon the event for the past couple of
years, so the affair was moved this year to the
Tulsa State Fairgrounds. And it will be in-
teresting to see if the people of Tulsa will
want the picnic next year.
The unpleasant realities of today’s music
festivals have shattered the idyllic remem
brances of the original events of the late
1960s, and they may be on their way to obli-
vion. Until the events become a little more
sane, it is likely they will continue to lose
many prospective fans who simply don’t
choose to participate in a good idea that has
evolved into a very bad one.

ell, the folks up in Tulsa survived Willie
Nelson's I hird of July picnic Sunday, despite
the inevitable inconveniences that are to be
expected whenever a multitude gathers to
celebrate the rituals of the so-called "youth
culture" at a festival-style music event.
No doubt there were many OU students
and Norman residents at Sunday's affair,
sweating in the 90-degree heat, fighting for
breathing room with the 60,000-plus par
ticipants and standing in line for refreshments
and the call of nature at the inadequate con-
cession stands and toilets.
But there were many more music-lovers
who didn’t go. The concensus seemed to be
that it simply wasn't worth the hassle.
Many of us have attended these marathon
events before. Although each time the pro-
moters assure everyone that this festival will
be "different,” the scene is always the same.
There are always a lot of people who suffer
from the combination of too much sun, too
much beer and too many drugs; always a few
casualties who have to be carried out on stret-
chers, victims of either the elements or the in-
evitable troublemakers who seem determined
to have it out with anyone who aggravates

American misconceptions
To the editor:
As a Muslim student on this campus, I feel the necessity o
clarifying certain misconceptions held by the American people is to worship One God
regarding our religious behefs. It is hoped that this endeavor in God and God alone
• ill result in a better understanding between all peoples by A Muslim also belli
fax using on the Muslim conception of God
The Islamic concept of God is based on pure and absolute
monotheism The One and Only One God is the Creator and
Sustamer of the universe, the All Knowing and All-Powerful
Arbiter of good and evil and the Final Judge of all mankind
He does not assume human form and is free from all human
needs and imperfections. He is One. Invisible. Indivisible,
Beneficient, Almighty. Just, loving and Forgiving Belief iri
the Oneness and the Unity of God is the essential requirement
of every Muslim
Almighty God has many eternal attributes He is Hearer
Seer. Granter. Reckoner, Pardoner. Sustamer, Compas
sionate. Merciful. Protector and Provider He is Omniscient
and Omnipotent
God Almighty has no partner, counsel or assistant. He has
no father, no mother, no wife, nor child.
Attributing partners to God is called “shirk," which is un
forgivable “Shirk" is not only idolatrv, but also is offering
prayers and supplications to persons, dead or living, while
in a lesser degree
Islam means “total submission to the One and Only One
God and total obedience to His laws " The duly of mankind
orship One God and One God alone and put your trust
A Muslim also believes in the continuity of the Message of I
God. through the Prophets of God. to mankind
Moreover, we believe the Fternai Message of God was
revealed to the Prophet Muhammed (may peace and blessing
be upon him) in its comprehensive and final form
A God conscious man would, therefore, declare his
destiny with this Qur anic serse
"Say: ‘Truly, my prayer
And my service of sacrifice.
My life and my death.
Are (all) for God.
