The newsman, Gene Oishi, of the Baltimore Sun, who was

: made the remark, has declined comment. Agnew has apologized
। profusely.
He also has said he’s been the victim of some ethnic derogation
; himself. When he was a child, he says, his family was referred
L to by neighbors as “the Greeks on the-block.”

But criticism of the “Polack” reference refuses to die down,
eventhough Agnew insists he never knew the term was ever used
except as a friendly nickname for some of Polish descent.

The “Polack” came out of a press conference, which isn’t the
ideal setting for a politician to use words that might offend large
: vote blocs.

The evening class for adults held at Nikko Garden Hall recorded
an enrollment of 32 students. The aggregate in all schools is com­
prised of 254 students and 17 teachers.
Through the concerted and diligent efforts of all teachers
during the past year a new and much needed curriculum was de­
vised and compiled which the teachers believe is best suited to
meet the needs and expressed desires of pupils. This new cur­
riculum is now being put into practice in all three schools.
In order to adequately cope with the ever rising expenditures
which the school must meet each year, the Ijikai is at present
soliciting support from the general public by urging one and all
to become members of the Sanjoin (membership fee ten dollars
per year). The membership fee for the coming year is now due
and all members who have not as yet remitted their fees are
respectfully
requested to do so without delay.
