The members of the group include Jay Black, Sandy Deans, Marty Saunders, and Kenny Vance. They began a series of 'candy store concerts' to establish communication with an audience. The first years of iti- News Briefs nerary included school functions, small clubs and local parties. In 1962 they cut their first record "She Cried."

The students, fa cuity, and administration of WCU were shocked b\ the death of Rev, King, Their opinions differ as to the reasons of the assassination and the outcome of its riot wake Their com ments follow, President Paul A, Held repeated a quotation from the late, honorable Joscphus Dan iels, which Reid believed summarized Dr, King antl his efforts, "Attach yourself to an un popular righteous cause and fight for it to die very end," "That," stated Reid, "is what Martin Luther King did. He fought for his cause. He won more and more converts to a cause that at first was very unpopular, "Now he has given his life for this cause, lie will always be in the minds of people, "He is a person who stood for that which he believed in with his whole heart, and under his leadership so much progress has been made that there will be no turning back." "This cause will go on and on, improving and making progress. "America, our nation, was founded largely to help underprivileged people • not all of course - and has been a haven of underprivileged three generations, "Martin Luther King represented a continuation of that effort to improve the lot of humanity of underprivileged in America," One student who wants his name withheld offered his opinion: "I feel the assassi ■ nation was uncalled for." When diis reporter asked his opinion of what the summer holds in store for the nation the student replied, "That da pends on what happens in die next two weeks it's probably fining to be a long, hot summer," He added, "I think the whole thing is being played up too much." Another student commented, "Though many people disagreed widi Dr, King's cause and tactics, I think we all grieve at his death. The tragedy lies not only in die murder of a man dedicated to a cause, but also in the fact that even in America freedom of speech is not an idea upheld by all citizens," John Bell of die History Da partment said about die rioting, "The assassination was not a cause of the riots; merely an excuse," He quoted the Greensboro Daily News as saying, "No .direct evidence that the rioting was caused by the assassination," Bell believes that the death of King, a non-violent leader, was ironical in that it was used as justification for violence. He continued by saying, "I think Uiat in practically all revolutionary movements you find extremist elements using every incident which they can seize to justify their cause." Frank Brown, Vice-President of Administrative Affairs, stated, "Dr, King championed a long overdue cause in our country. It is most unfortunate that he came to his untimely death at a time when his leadership was greatly needed," It looks as if the long, hot summer has already begun, with riots breaking out in major cities like Washington and Chicago, and as close to home as Raleigh and Memphis, This summer WCU will conduct the 5th Annual Summer Writers Workshop. The three courses offered are: Short Fiction Seminar, Non-Fiction Seminar, and Playwriting. These courses are open to any students, not just Professional Writing majors. Many people who come to the workshops are from other colleges and universities, while others come here to get additional training. The Workshops may be counted as English electives. Several students have published their work after taking these workshops.
