AME confab resolutions favor busing, oppose death penalty
By Will* Thomas At its 141st meeting which wound up here Sunday, the Indians Annual Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church adopted resolutions condemning abortion, homosexuality, capital punishment and continued discrimination against refugees of color. Addressing itself even more to the church's major concerns for 1960, the delegation came out in support of busing, the Equal Rights Amendment, the need for a “realistic yet adequate" national energy policy and full employment. The Right Reverend Hubert N. Robinson, 4th Episcopal District bishop, presided over proceedings at Allen Chapel AME Church. Major announcements cen-
tered on the transfer of five ministers as pastoral appointments were made. Resolutions unanimously a dopted on issues the conference has decided to take a stand against were: Abortion-“The church can in no way sanction abortion because of its deep-seated belief that when pregnancy takes place, a new life begins and who is it that is able to give life but God and his eternal
processes. Homosexuality-“As a church we categorically, unreservedly and unequivocally reject the concept of homosexuality and homosexual marriage as being totally inconsistent with the Biblical and theological conceptualization of marriage as viewed and practiced in our
Zion." Capital punishment--“Even though there is a genuine fear about rising crime rates throughout the country and concern about the increased criminality in black communities, we still maintain that capital punishment is inconsistent with a God-inspired system of justice, liberation and redemption. The resolution on full employment called for federal, state, city and church “job creation programs that will increase earnings, productivity and tax revenues. The Congress must not abandon its responsibility to provide meaningful, creative measures to alleviate unemployment and guarantee equal opportunity for all citizens in this courtry."
Making the public aware of energy alternatives was also called for, and it was emphasized so-called Christians can not claim to adequately serve God when women are discriminated against. A similar statement was made about refugees coming to this ryAssignments made known included that of Rev. William S. Nelson heading the South District which includes Indianapolis. Pastors heading congregations here include Rev. C.W. Gordon, Bethel AME Church; Rev. W.D. Parks, St. Paul; Rev. W.H. Abel, St. John. Those being transferred are Raymond P. Floyd, to Illinois Conference; Rev. Samuel 0. Jones, to Third Episcopal District; Rev. Mrs. Sylvia

Why do some people think " Bud is sort of special?
Go ahead and find out why! (Brewing beer right does make a difference.)
Sears, regarded as one of the nation's most talented political strategists, stated that he was gratified at this substantial support for Reagan among Hoosier Republicans so early in the 1980 campaign. He noted that the Indiana and Marion County Reagan committees would soon be accompanied by Reagan representatives in each of Indiana's 92 counties. He further predicted that Reagan would score big in next May's Indiana primary. A wm would be a key factor in Reagan's receiving the Presidential nomination at the Republican National Convention in Detroit next summer, he added. Reagan is to be accompanied by his wife, Nancy, and is scheduled to address a meeting ol the National Federation of Republican Women, September 28, due to return to Indianapolis October 17 as keynote speaker at the Columbia Club's annual Beefsteak Dinner.

Student Fellowship for Blacks
aids Central State sophomore
Student Fellowwship for Blacks on August 11, anounced its annual scholarship award of $1,000 to Ms. Pamels K. Wadsworth, daughter of Mrs. Rita Wadsworth, 3700 N. Dearborn. She is an accounting major at Central State University, the predominantly black university in Willerforce, Ohio. She will return this fall as a sophomore with a 3.0 grade point average. The scholarship recipient says she feels all blacks should have a chance to attend a black college, because, “it‘s a different experience.” Ms. Wadsworth was one of five students who applied for the award. Colleges represented were Fisk University (Nashville), Morehouse and Spelman Colleges (Atlanta) and Tuskegee Institute (Ala.), besides Central State. Although each of the students met award qualifications and were most deserving, the fund was unable to award
them. Nontheless, Student Fellowship for Students feels the five students are a product of our community, which means, as they travel from home to attend school, they must pay out-of-state tuition. “It is really expensive,” according to the students, "but it is worth it.” Student Fellowship aims in the future to expand its sch olarship awards. According to those who helped establish the program, it would have been nice to give awards to more than one student “just for their spirits... Thus, members are asking you—the black community of these students— the young people who must do more than the average student to achieve in and develope their careers, to mail contributions to: Student Fellowship for Blacks, P.0.

Literary couple records African folk tales...
Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee have recorded a new album of African folk tales by the well known author of children's strories, Verna Aardema. The recording, titled Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears and Other Tales (Ceadrnon) is a collection of tales which evolved from those still told according to the author, "in the African villages, by storytellers on moonlight nights. “Only at night,” she says, "because they believe the stories belong to their ancestors, whose spirits must not be
offended.
"The village storytellers are great actors,” Ms. Aardema explains. "They dramatize the tales waith profuse gestures and Africanideaphones. The people participate by repeating the refrains, singing the songs, and answering the qauestions
thrown out by the narrator.’
Other folk tales on the recording in addition to the title story include “Ol-'mbu and He of-the-Long-Sleeping Place", “Anase and the King's Cow", “Kindai and the Apes" and Ikpoom".
