Soviets share Haskell peace pipe
By Elicia Hill
Kansan staff writer
The Soviet delegates crowded to the front of the room and all eyes focused on three American Indian men who had been on patrol.
The men chanted a Navaho honor song that had been selected for the ceremony, which was attended by about 200 people yesterday at the Big Eight room in the Kansas Union.
The ceremony highlighted the final day of the Meeting For Peace, a week-long conference and cultural exchange between Kansas residents and more than 250 Soviets.
A peace pipe was lighted by Manny King, a guidance counselor at Haskell Indian Junior College. The room fell
silent as he shared the pipe with Sergel Khrushchev, son of the late Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev.
"From all of us at Haskell and all Indian tribes in the United States, we say thank you." King said. "Thank you for your service."
In a reciprocal gesture, Khrushchev presented Soviet tobacco, which is rare, to the Haskell students.
"As Indian people, we tend to be forgotten," said Moran, a Haskell sophomore from the Omaha tribe. "This is a special day, and we will keep the tobacco gift for only our most momentous occasions."
Lami Moran, who is this year's Miss Haskell, said she was happy that Haskell students were able to teach the language.

the interview was with Georgi Gresko, a Soviet cosmonaut, and Sergei Khrushchev, the son of the late Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev.
Gresko said, "The most important event of the week was that 300 Soviet people lived with families. This did not happen in New York City or San Francisco, but in a little Midwest town called Lawrence."
Khrushchev said the Soviet Union was struggling to develop a political system to solve its severe economical problems.

Sergei Goryachov, who was the Soviet translator for the interview and for the Meeting For Peace, was asked by Hank Booth, a KLWN commentator, what he thought of the situation in the Soviet Union.
"The French people say it is easy to set up a republic, but where do you get the republicans?" Goryachov asked.
