Africa Addio may well be the only movie ever to get a review from the United Nations. On behalf of five African U.N. delegates who had asked that its showing be suspended, U.S. Ambassador Arthur Goldberg wrote to the New York Times complaining that this Italian-made documentary about the Dark Continent was "grossly distorted" and "socially irresponsible...

Yet the Club members who pulled last week's travesty violated this principle in making a mockery of the SDS elections. In so doing they immediately tossed themselves in the same political category as the people with whom they wanted...
