LBJ addresses rights symposium
GLcvcUaqfl cDaiirSuii Afewtf
■y ANDREW A. YEMMA
AUSTIN, Tex. (UPI) -Former
President Lyndon B. Johnson had
finished his formal speech end-
ln* W* two-day civil, rights sym-
posium Tuesday. And (hen some-
one in the audience stood up and
challenged to speak about the
role of black people in the Unit-
edStates in the 1970s.
‘To be black - to one who
is black — is to be proud, to be
worthy, to be honorable,” John-
son said. “But to be black in a
white society is not to stand on
levelground.
“While the races may. stand
side by side, whites stand on his-
tory’s mountain and black's
stand in history’s hollow.'’
Theformerpresident, who had
said earlier in the evening that
his doctor had suggested he not
speak at all, brought the pre-
dominantly black audience to
its feet numerous times with his
rambling, folksy discussion of
the black plight in America.
"His speech, and later- re-
marks, ended the symposium
which capped the opening of his
one million civil rights papers
to public view at the Lyndon
B. Johnson Library on the. Unir
versity of Texas campus.
The challenge to Johnson was
issued by Rep. Kendall Smith of
the National Council of
Churches’ task force on racism.
Smith told Johnson he would dis-
rupt the symposium unless he.
Smith, was permitted to public-
ly ask that the symposium be
reconvened to plot a national
strategy for future civil rights
activities. As Smith spoke, the
audience began to walk out, but
then Johnson returned to the po-
dium, and they again listened.
Johnson called on the civil
rights movement to “eualize the
history of some of our people so
that we may open the opportun-
ity for all our people.”
‘■Some may respond to these
suggestions with exclamations of
shock and dismay,” he said.
“Such proposals, they will say,
ask that special consideration be
given to black Americans, rather
than giving equal consideration
to all Americans.’’
“I can onl> hear such protest
through the ears attuned b> a
lifetime of listening to the lan-
guage of evasion. All that I hear
now, I have heard before — in
many forms and lorums. The
cry ot "Never’ I have heard
since I was a little boy — all
my life.”
. "What we commemorate,
though, on such occasions, is
some ot the work which helped
in some areas to make ’never’
now. This is precisely the work
which must continue. Our objec-
tive must be to assure that all
Americans play by the same
rules and all Americans play
against the same odds.
"We have proved that great
progress is possible. We know
how much still remains to be
done. And if our efforts contin-
ue, if our will is strong, if our
hearts are right and if courage
remains ourconstant companion,
then, my fellow Americans. I
am confident that we shall ov-
ercome.”
Johnson called on four seg-
ments of U.S. leadership to work
for equality for all mankind —
the federal government, the
white collar professions, the
trade unions and the nation's
employers.
Some of Johnson’s most vocal
critics — when Johnson was
president— listened with appre-
ciation to his comments.
They included Roy Wilkins, di-
rector of the National Associa-
tion for the Advancement of Col-
ored People; Vernon E. Jordan,
director of the National Urban
League; Georgia state legislator
Julian Bond; former Supreme
Court Justice Earl Warren, and
two black congresswomen-elect, ■
Barbara Jordan of Houston and
Yvonne Burke of California.

FARGO, N.D. — In some
ways, school for dogs is more
demanding than it is for peo-
ple
Style, marking, handling,
steadiness, behavior on the
line — high marks in these
tests are required for Held
trial champions. A field trial
is the three R’s for dogs on the
college level.
R. D. Brown, a retired
schoolmaster in Fargo whose
judging ability is respected by
hunting dog dubs around the
nation, was talking about this
subject recently.
Field trial judging is an ar-
cane art to most observers,
akin to Tarot cards, black
magic and astrology, and
Brown admits it.
“Judging is subjective,” he
says, “not like track or bU-
termination and drive in a
dog, the animal’s memory of
where four birds, ckopped at
odd intervals in front of him,
are located, his behavior in
front of the judge, and other
emotional considerations. It is
not a 1-2-3 thing, though
judges score competing dogs
on a 1 to 10 chart.
Robert Daniel Brown, an
athletic coach (football and
track) and principal for 33
years at schools in Fargo, is
71. He is retired and has been
judging dogs for 25 years. His
services — all gratis — are
eagerly sought by golden re-
triever and Labrador clubs
around the country. He has
judged in 19 states, three
provinces of Canada and re-
cently he was in the field at
the Snake River Retriever
Club, Pocatello, Idaho.
“With me,” Brown, a
stocky, lively, iron-gray
haired man, says, “judging is
a hobby, a labor of love. I’ve
judged maybe a hundred and
fifty licensed trials. I’ve
owned a hundred dogs, and
I’ve been offered a salary, a
retainer, just to keep on the
lookout for champion-caliber
dogs.
“I turned it down. It
woulcki’t be fun anymore."
He flies to the various trials
for expenses only. Sometimes
“Dogs like discipline. They
like to be told.”
But he doesn’t believe in
abusing dogs to make them
mind. k
“The most I ever do,” he
says, “is say ‘No’ in a firm
voice when the dog does
something wrong and go over
to him and shake him by the
shoulders ... I’d never shake
him after calling him.
“He’d associate coming up
to me with punishment; and
that would be bad. I want to
give him affection when I call
him.”
He doesn’t consider the col-
lars, which contain shocking
devices, as improper for
training. But he does check
the charge on himself before
buckling it to a dog.
What makes an outstanding
dog?
“I like a dog who shows me
he marks a bird and goes (tt-

Brown hag novel ideas
about training dogs.
“They’ll retrieve at seven
weeks,” Brown says. “What I
do is hold ’em between my
legs, ton out the‘bird’and let
’em go. They get the idea. And
training never ceases. When
you fed ’em you train ’em.
When you call ’em you use the

faces you. Never stops.

though he’d rather run along
the shoreline. Also, I like a
dog who checks with his han-
dler.”
The latter attribute is called
a “pop,” and some judges
downgrade a dog for it. To
which. Brown replies:
“Woukki’t you like your
own dog to check with you?
That’s what we’re supposed to
be judging here, hunting
dogs.”
