Cleaning your contacts
with Lensine retards the
buildup of foreign de

Lensine is sterile, self

"That their problem was that
they were black and that if
they could change that or

would be okay."

Raecke's principle assign

say not only were blacks
culturally negated, but that
there was also a question of
power," Turner said. "They
saw that tne major problem
in this country is not just in
dividual discrimination, but
it is systematic, institutional,
economic exploitation and
political manipulation."
"Blacks wanted to be like
whites," Turner said. "It
used to be a great compli
ment to a black man to say
to him 'I don't even notice
that you're colored when I'm
talking to you.' Today the
black man doesn't know if he
wants to be invisible."
Blacks are beginning to
wonder if what whites have
to offer them is work while
according to Turner. Blacks
are questioning just why
white culture is supposedly
the best.
He compared the creativity
of black jazzmen improvising
constantly to white sym
phonies endlessly repeating
themselves, as an example of
the new attitude towanl
cultures.

remains unless it has some
utility," Turner said. "The
ghetto has historically been a
base for cheap labor, soldiers
and cannon fodder during
war and a source of enter
tainment for whites during
peacetime."
He added that "ghettos are
not ghettos, they're reserved
areas. They are not there as
a factor of economic discrim
ination but of economic de
pendence." The most serious discrep
ancy he said, was that
though the Blacks are the
oldest minority group of im
migrants, they own the leas'
land.
Turner added, "Not only
are we landless, but are 99rV

economically dependant.
"Black people are beginn

Liberation means control,

"Blacks talk about the st

which means independence.

Meaning of campus
unrest not realized
Tidewater, Va. (CPS)
Dr. Jerome ("Brud")
Holland has resigned as
president of Virginia's black
Hampton Institute with an
angry blast at student rebels.
Accusing them of
"demagogery and-or facist
that "neither the public nor
many of the public leaders
are aware of the dangerous
significance of the current
campus unrest."
Last April, over 1,000
students seized the Hampton
administration building and
closed down the school for
four days. One of their
demands was the ouster of
Holland. The black school,
where most noted alumnis is
Booker T. Washington, has
been headed by Holland for
the past decade.
Holland's resignation came
as a complete surprise, even
to his top administrators. It
was announced not through
the regular college channels,
but through the local new
media. The student newspa
per accepted the announce
ment with "no regret."
The Hampton student
government wired the
trustees and demanded a
voice in the selection of a
new president. They also
suggested that Holland's
resignation be accepted im
mediately, rather than "on
or before June .30, 1970" as
was intended by Holland.

The lampyridae beetle family.
Delight of small boys. Biological
light bulb. And prime source of
raw material for another Du Pont
innovation.
Luciferase, an enzymatic protein
with intriguing properties, obtain
able only from fireflies. Luciferin,
an organic molecule also found in
fireflies, but synthesizable. Adeno
sine triphosphate (ATP), a common
energy-yielding substance found in
all living cells.
Those are the three main ingre
dients in lampyridae's love light.
And because ATP is common to all
living cells, university researchers
discovered they could produce an
artificial glow by mixing luciferin
and luciferase wherever life is
present.
Noting that phenomenon, Du Pont
scientists and engineers went on
to develop it into a practical ana
lytical system. Correlating the in
tensity of the artificial "glow" with
the amount of ATP present in
bacteria, they designed a means of
measuring the reaction.
The result is the luminescence
biometer the first really basic im
provement in bacteria-counting
methods since the time of Louis
Pasteur. Rather than waiting days
for a culture to demonstrate growth
density, a doctor or technician can
now get a digital readout of bacteria
concentration inamatterof minutes.'
Other potentially lifesaving uses
for the biometer are being sug
gested every day such as diagnos
ing metabolic rates, enzyme d9r
ficiencies and nerve damage.-
Innovation applying the known
to discover the unknown, inventing
new materials and putting them to
work, using research and engineer-l
