^sO?" From The Principal I By Stanley Kotzen ^ Principal, Lower Cape May Regional High School r

1 There is much that we all . should have learned from ' LIVE AID that should sus- ' tain us when we get depressed about the human condition. Granted, there I was enough to be cynical I about for those who were ! bent on downgrading this I tremendous burst of energy. Those skeptics will point ■ to the accumulated trash s and the bureaucratic ' handling of monetary pledges, but how in the world do you explain away more than $60 million in pledges to relieve hunger, or hundreds of thousands of people jamming stadiums j to participate in a very f special event, or the billionplus people who watched # the concert on television and heard it on radio? THAT DAY'S events I were far great<n* than the ti sum of their parts At the ; very least LIVE AID should remind us that we 1 are still capable of that

seemingly boundless energy that, once directed, can produce change to make our lives better. Nothing is as imminent a need as feeding the starving, but with a sense of participation that all of us got from seeing those scenes from London and Philadelphia, how about going after ignorance and illiteracy sometime soon? You didn't have to be a Woodstock to know that something special happened there or that those who were present at JFK stadium on July 13. 1985 were in on an event that will be remembered for generations to come IT IS THE effect on the millions of us who weren't there that matters most. If you see Live Aid as a great Rock-n-Roll concert. I think you are missing the point. Certainly the music and the performers were the catalyst, but theuniversal participation transcended all of that. This was not pay TV. and I guarantee you thousands upon thousands of those pledged dollars came from people who had never heard of the Boontown Rats The enormity of the effort of the concert focused attention on a need to relieve human suffering — and the world responded. For one weekend terrorism was pushed off the front pages of our newspapes and replaced with Mick Jagger and Tina Turner and the proposed nomination of a rock-n-roll promoter for the Nobel Peace Prize. THERE WAS the perfor mance of a Russian group of American TV. and if you listened carefully you heard a lot of people tell you how thrilled they were by the whole spectacle. The spectacle was human beings coming together in a common cause trying to save other human beings. Of course there was not a universal altruism and there were , complaints that not enough of the performers were black, and there were charges that corrupution will decimate the contribu- ■ tions. but more than $60 million just think of it! WHAT MIGHT be ac complished it we were able to develop a social conscience that doesn't need to be aroused by 14 hours of rock-n-roll? As an educator I found Live Aid was a great reminder of the joy of participation and the energy of youth that we must seek to cultivate. I wonder what my generation could have done for the world if we had a concert with Johnny Ray. Nat King Cole. Jo Stafford. Elvis, the four Freshman. Buddy Holly and Chuck Berry We missed our chance to use popular music to unite us Picnic in Park COURT HOUSE - A A R P Chapter 1182. Middle Township, will hold a picnic Sunday. July 28, in the County Park on Rte. 9, in Shelter 1. . There will be music by I Larry Ferrari. Members I will be supplied beverages I by the chapter but are askI ed to bring your own food | and chairs.
