Convention Offers Emphasis
on Youth in Journalism
. Three PCC journalism students
attended the annual California
Newspaper Publishers Associa¬
tion Convention in San Francisco
last weekend.
The student portion of the pro¬
gram emphasized the future of
journalism and youth’s place in
it
Dusty Greene, Courier execu¬
tive editor, Deanna Deeley,
Pageant editor and Bill Seavey,
Courier entertainment editor
served as the PCC delegation
along with their adviser, William
Buttler.
STUDENT-ORIENTED activi
ties began with a luncheon speech
on Thursday given by Dr. Billy
Graham. He considers youth to
be a positive, not a negative,
force in the world today. Con¬
cerning the riots and demonstra¬
tions at Berkeley, he mentioned
the fact that 500 students recently
marched at the university in a
Crusade for Christ which re¬
ceived little to no publicity in the
press. He feels that the press has
a real responsibility to print both
sides of a story.
That evening, Governor Ron¬
ald Reagan spoke at the Family
Night Dinner, which was given
in his honor and in honor of Lt.
Gov. Robert Finch, Secretary of
State Frank Jordan, State Con¬
troller Houston Flournoy, State
Treasurer Ivy Baker Priest, At¬
torney General Thomas Lynch
and State Superintendent of Pub¬
lic Instruction Max Rafferty.
IN HIS SPEECH, Reagan
asked that the members of the
press seek out the truth behind
a news story and the stories of
his administration and that they
print them fully and accurately.
Concening the budget situa¬
tion, the Governor had this to
say: “The problem is this: the
current year’s budget was pre¬
dicated on spending 15 months’
income in 12 months and then in
borrowing an additional 180 mil¬
lion dollars.
“I am shocked when I read ac¬
cusations that we are in some
way exaggerating our fiscal situ¬
ation and darkening the picture
for political purposes.”
The next day was entirely de¬
voted to student discussions and
forums. In the morning Jim
Anderson, editor of the Sacra¬
mento Union, gave a speech on
youth opportunities in the news
paper business, followed by ques¬
tions from the student audience.
LT. GOV. Finch gave a press
conference and discovered that
student questions are as difficult
to answer as those of the pro¬
fessional reporters. He appeared
to have certain answers ready on
the budget and tuition situation
and he gave them no matter
what the students asked.
That afternoon, the student
portion of the CNPA convention
was brought to a close by a two-
hour discussion and student panel
on education, working conditions,
job hunting and specialization in
journalism.
Other PCC representatives at
the convention were Fred Ham¬
mond, printing instructor, and
Robert van der Veen, production
manager of the PCC Press.

Evening Forum
Slates Leakey
Following a semester break and
a three-week long absence, the
Tuesday Evening Forum will re¬
turn to Sexson Auditorium Feb¬
ruary 14 at 8 p.m. with noted an¬
thropologist L. S. B. Leakey,
whose topic is “Man’s Fossil An¬
cestry.” t
Leakey, a Cambridge Universi¬
ty graduate, has recently re-estab¬
lished the age of man, a signifi¬
cant contribution to the under¬
standing of human evolution. His
discovery of Homo habilis has ex¬
tended man’s age to 1,750,000
years.
In the last forum before the se¬
mester break, John Moyer, a staff
member of the Chicago Natural
History Museum, showed his film,
“India: Portrait of a People in
Crisis.”
Moyer has visited India sever¬
al times, and after his latest visit
last year, he recounted the mark¬
ed changes in India’s peoples, es¬
pecially places. India, architec¬
turally, is becoming a country of
contrasts.
Following L. S. B. Leakey’s dis¬
cussion, Sir Alec Douglas-Home,
past Prime Minister of England,
will lecture February 21 on “Eng¬
land’s Role in the Future of
Europe.”
His defeat at the polls in 1963
ended 13 years of Conservative
government in England. Sir Alec
will discuss the dramatic changes
which are occurring in England
and in her relations with other
European nations.
Forums are open free to the
public, after 8 p.m. Students are
urged to attend.
