A newly organized group, Friends of Africa, has re– ceived from the state cor– poration commissioner its certificate of incorporation as a non-profit organization. ·Purposes as listed in the charter are to provide an increased contact with the peoples of Africa, to pro– mote a closer relationship between Americans and Af– ricans, to exchange cultural ideas and provide aid for Africans in America.

Charter membe r s, Does Voter Total Keep Pace? by EMILE SUMMERS In the 1962 survey taken by the Portland Planning Commission, the Albina area was divided into sections. These were classified as the study area No. 1 and cen– tral Albina No. 2. At that time the Negro population was concentrated in what was known as central Albina. a district bordered by Broad– way on the south, Fremont on the north, Union Avenue on the east and the freeway on the west. The census count at that time was broken down thusly: City, total population was 372,676; the study area was 36,174, and central Albina was· 7,111. Non- white resi– dents in the city totaled 20,- 919; in the study area, 13,078 and in central Albina, 4,926. The percentage of non- white were: City, 5.6%, study area, 36.2% and central Albina, 69.4%. At that time the average income was: City, $6,333 pe r year; study area was $5,065 per year and in cen– t r al Albina, $3,946 per year. I would estimate that the non-white population, from the 7,111 in 1962, has in– creased to at least 18,000 of voting age. Voting agel There is the rub. How many of these people have registered to vote? If you are one of these • • be sure to regis– ter before the primaries. Alameda Theatre 3000 N.E. Alberta 284-9448
