NOTES FROM THE SECRETARIAT
As the last issue of the News was quite substantial, we do not have as much material to place in the summer issue. We have, however, placed an updated preliminary Meeting Program within, please use this latest as your guide, as there are some changes from that which was mailed in the preregistration packets. You should have received it by now, if any of you have not, please call the Secretariat, and we will send it out Also, please keep in mind that should you move (in our line of work, a fairly common occurance), your ASA materials will nQl be forwarded by the Post Office, but will be returned to us, so it is important for you to inform the Secretariat if you relocate. Preparations are well under way for the Denver Meeting and all indications point to a well organized, stimulating Meeting. We have also announced the dates for the 1988 Meeting in Chicago, so you can plan your schedules well in advance. If you need to make any last minute adjustments to the Program for Denver, please contact George Shepherd, as he has fmal say on panel scheduling. This will be the last preliminary program, the next version will be presented as the conference program in your registration packets in Denver. Remember to make your travel plans as soon as you can to take advantage of the reduced airfares provided by this year's travel agency. We've been assured they will provide better service than those we have used in the past, especially since we can contact the airlines directly. A final point on the Meeting. please be aware of the constraints imposed by the catering service for the Awards Banquet. It may be difficult for us to accomodate last minute requests for tickets and we will problably nru be able \. to sell tickets at the Conference because of the need to inform catering of the final count several days before the event, so send in your reservations as soon as possible to ensure your attendance at this event 3 \
Finally, let me remind you that the Secretariat will be moving its offices to Emory University in Atlanta, GA. We will continue to conduct ASA business out of UCLA until the Annual Meeting. After that, please address your inquiries and correspondence to:
Executive Secretary African Studies Association Emory University Atlanta, GA 30322
As I have mentioned previously, we will do all we can, both myself and Edna Bay, to make the trasition as "painless" as possible. Please understand the difficulties • in such a move and rest assured that we will try and complete the transition as quickly as possible. We hope that the "new" looks of HIA, Issue and the ASR are appealing. I personally, got a bit tired of the "bargain basement'" appearance of our journals, even though the quality has been excellent, sometimes packaging can liven things up a bit. We hope our efforts meet with your approval. We look forward to seeing all of you in Denver at the Radisson Hotel November 2()..22.

OBITUARY
CHIEF OBAFEMI A WOLOWO, 1909·1987 (Submitted by Richard L. Sklar) In his autobiography, Obafemi Awolowo tells about his tenacious pursuit of a barely adequate fonnal education. He was already thirty-four years old and a jack of many humble trades by the time he could finally afford to study law in London. Three years later, in 1947, the newly qualified lawyer and aspirant politician published a stunning book, Path to Nigerian Freedom. now a classic of African political thought. In it, he upheld the right of every cultural-linguistic group to establish modem political institutions within a unifying federal framework. His approach inspired a powerful • political movement in Western Nigeria. He, himself. became an architect of Nigeria's federal constitution and the leading critic of its imperfections. As Premier of the Western Region from 1954 to 1959, Awolowo acquired an awesome reputation for administrative competence and efficiency. In foreign affairs, he espoused Nigerian alignment with the Western democracies and decried Gamal Abdel Nasser's pretension to leadership in black Africa. No African leader has ever been flattered and praised with more conviction by conservative and liberal members of the Anglo-American Establishment than Awolowo in the latter 1950s. Yet his inner directed personality was impervious to flattery and rarely if ever deflected from its self directed course. He believed in democratic socialism and became its foremost Nigerian proponent as Leader of the Opposition in the Independence Parliament of 1960-62. Awolowo's intellectual legacy lies mainly with his Afrocentric synthesis of democratic socialism and federalism. Posterity may also remember him as the exemplar of Fabian socialist thought in postcolonial Mrica. His pluralist philosophy was anchored to the political principle of party competition. By way of comparison, both Julius Nyerere and Kenneth Kaunda are properly classified as participatory socialists in the democratic-corporatist tradition of G.D.H. Cole. Awolowo upheld the more orthodox party-parliamentary tradition of Sidney Webb and Harold Laski. We shall never know whether an Awolowist federal government would have reflected his personal image of disciplined efficiency. His fervent belief in strong party leadership, as it is practiced in Britain, was incompatible with the construction of a winning coalition in the multicultural, federal state that is Nigeria. His conception of party leadership had built-in limitations that he refused to rectify for the sake of electoral success. They may have been the limitations of Fabian socialism in a plural and preindustrial society. Chief Awolowo's voluminous published works include six substantial books. During his visit to California in 1982. the late Professor James Coleman asked him how his writing program had been. and would be. affected by the demands of public office. Without hesitation. he replied that it was easier for him to write while he was in office because everyone seemed to agree that a senior office-holder's time was precious and should be protected by subordinate officials. Out of office, he lamented. there was never enough time for his writing. Only the first volume of his projected trilogy, entitled" Adventures in Power," had been published at the time of his death. \ 7
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
Scholars Urge Removal or Ideological Barriers John Scanlan, Professor of Law at Indiana University, testifying ... on behalf of the American Association of University Professors, urged Congress to pass H.R. 1119 amending the McCarran-Walters Act AAUP opposes the law because "it considers the right to receive and share infonnation and ideas to be essential to the pursuit of truth." This law interferes with the free exchange of ideas by barring entry into the United .. States of scholars, authors, creative artists and others, invited to address academic conferences and university audiences, on the basis of their beliefs or political affiliations. • The law also has been invoked to initiate deportation proceedings against academics resident in the U.S. whose writings are considered to be in some way unacceptable by government authorities .... In addition, the McCarran-Walters Act has deterred individuals from applying to enter the U.S., because they do not want to reveal to our immigration officials their beliefs of affIliations or be excluded because of them. Under H.R. 1119, proposed by Representative Barney Frank (D-Massachusetts), individuals could be excluded or deported for engaging in terrorist activities but not for what they believe or for their membership in organizations. The full text of Prof. Scanlan's testimony is available from Alfred D. Sumberg or Jonathan Knight, AAUP. 1012 14th Street, NW, Washington, DC 20005. Tel. (202) 737-5900. The AAUP was founded in 1915 to defend the principles of academic freedom and has over 50,000 faculty members throughout the United States.

Journal Editor Wanted For personal and professional reasons Bernth Lindfors is considering stepping down as editor of Research in African Literatures and handing over the reins of the journal to a new editor who could begin work in September 1988.
