Bond has relative at KU
A bearded Negro sat in the crowded Kansas Union Ballroom listening with particular interest as Julian Bond spoke Thursday.
Horace Bond, graduate student in speech and drama at KU. is a cousin of the Georgia Congressman.
Like his famous cousin, slender, articulate Bond is active in civil rights and is vitally concerned about our country's problems and by the lack of involvement of many Americans.
"Kansas puzzles me," said Bond, who taught in Texas before coming to KU two years ago. "I've never seen so many people—both black and white—so uninvolved in my life. Apathy is the most dangerous thing in the world."
Involved in activities on campus and in Lawrence, Bond is a board member of Ballard Center and was a Lawrence Day Camp volunteer last summer. Last spring he served on a KU committee which worked out demands with Dean Heller including a Negro representative on the Pom-Pon squad and a Negro history course.
More recently he was one of five Negro graduate students who taught classes to Negro Lawrence High School students during their walkout. Labeling their demands relevant and justifiable, Bond said, "It is necessary for people who want change
to utilize anything within reason to their disposal."
Bond said that if the students hadn't walked out, their demands would have been "put on the shelf for future reference."
Before Julian Bond's KU visit last week, the cousins, whose fathers are brothers, hadn't seet each other since December when Horace's father died. "It was the first time the family had met in so very long." Bond recalled.
The KU graduate student explained that the two families have always been close. "My mother and Julian's father taught together at Lancaster University in Oklahoma. Through him she met my father."
Bond hasn't decided which presidential candidate he will support next month. "I'll have
to decide in the booth! This is a funny year for everything."
Agreeing with his cousin on most issues, Bond calls the legislator's involvement in the movement a "beautiful thing."
His first two years at KU, Bond was a teaching assistant in speech communications. He played the role of Jesus in the University production of "Rogues' Trial." Currently he is rehearsing for "The Song of the Goat."
Bond likes Kansas and explained that he came here because "the folks in my major department were responsive to my application. I have a fellowship primarily because of their recommendations."

Lynda Bird coins name for new baby
WASHINGTON (UPI)—Lynda Bird Robb talked Sunday by telephone with her husband in Vietnam and then decided to name her infant daughter Lucinda Desha.
The couple chose Lucinda by combining Lynda's first name with that of her younger sister Luci. The baby's middle name, Desha (pronounced duh-shay) belonged to some of President Johnson's pioneer ancestors on his mother's side.
Mrs. Elizabeth Carpenter,
Lady Bird Johnson's press secretary,
lay Lynda spoke with her husband, Marine Capt. Charles S. Robb, about 2:30 p.m. Sunday in a trans-pacific call. Robb told her from his post in Da Nang that he was "very, very happy" about the new baby.
Lynda, 24, and her husband had agreed earlier on the name but she reportedly declined to announce it until she was sure it would suit her brown-haired little daughter. Until then, the 3-day-old baby was known only as "Baby-Girl Robb" by a thin plastic band around her tiny wrist.
