NOV 1 2 1981 New Guinea Art Exhibit at USD The Unive-rsity of Snn Di- ego's Founders Gallery will exhibit masks, figures and other ritual objects from the Sepik River area of Papt1II New Guinea, and the sur'. rounding is 1 a n d s beginning Nov. 12 and running through D<'c. 19. The purpose of the exhibi· tion, according to Prof. The- rese Whitcomb, SUD Profes- sor of Art, is to display a cross-section of some 45 ob- j~cts fashioned by the pre- lttera_te Sepik River people, showrng how they use various materials - fiber, wood, and clay - in the stylization of the human face and figure. Nearly all the objects are rit- ual in nature. Whitcomb points out that there have been no significllnt showings of this type of art in. San Diego in the past, "yt>t this area of New Guinea has been one of the richest sourl'• es of primitive art in the world." The exhibit, "The Face and Form of Melanesia," featur- ing objects from the C'ollec, tion of the International Gal- lery in La MesJJ., was arrang- ed through the courtesy of Dr. and Mrs. Charles Ross and their family. T'...oss is director of the Stu- dent Health Service at the University and, with his wife owner of the International Gallery. Since current New Guinea law prevents export of art pieces made before 1960, Ross says the rare and unusual pieces that he was able to ac- quire are becoming harder and harder to find. He says, "The young men of the tribes are not learning the crafts of their forefathers. so these important forms are becoming extinct." Founders Gallery is open to the public on weekdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Gn Wednes• days it is op until 9 p.m.

mid-1970s. he was upset with the "hvsterta and sen- sat1onalism" that went along. "So much came out of the debate on CIA abuses - much of it untrue - that our allies didn't think that we could keep secrets. It was a dangerous time." But today these policies should be modified, he stressed, because in an in- creasingly unstable world, the American government "seriously needs the eyes, ears and brains of the agen- cy. ·we should be there to help understand the com- plexities and the factors pushing any one govern- ment economically, polit1- cally and socially. And to understand the factors that are apt to result in political upheavals."

spoken about his contempt for former CIA operatives now working as mercenar- ies for foreign powers, some or which are enemies of the United States government. Two ex agents, Edwin P. Wilson and Francis E. Ter- pil, were recently indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of illegally export- ing terrorist equipment to Libya. Former agents such as these "should be mdicted and cgnvicted," Colby said. "We should apply rrtminal sanctions against them as vigorously as possible. He explained that in an organization such as the CIA, consisting of thousands of people, there are always a few bad apples. ''There have been a remarkably few bad apples in the CIA over the years," he empha- sized. Colby was equally harsh on private citizens engaged in the naming of names of CIA agents stati over- seas, saying 1t as a crime" comparable to someone attemptrng to raise a mutiny m the armed forces. ''Those individuals who would make a little cottage industry of attackmg and trying to destroy the CIA must be stopped. Agents should not be put lll)der the unnecessary threat of being exposed," he said. "They do expect that to a certam ex- tent from the other side. But they don't expect that from fellow Americans." Such publications as Co- vert Action Information Bulletin and Counterspy have been responsible for naming agents who were then subsequently harassed - and even killed - by ter- rorists, he said. While Colby said he was content with most of the congressional regulations placed on the CIA in the

being elected but from being ratified. He was hos• tile to us and was supported by Castro and the Soviets, who would have used Chile as a base for further expan- sion in South America. "When the Chilean mili- tary moved against him in 1973, the CIA stayed away. Our strategy was to wait until the elections in 1976 in the hope that a democratic center government would be voted into power." Colby, a Princeton gradu- ate, has had a long career m covert activities dating back to World War II when he served with the Office of Strategic Services. As a paratrooper with the OSS during the war, he was dropped behind enemy lines in France to work with the underground. After the war, he prac- ticed law and worked for the National Labor Rela- tions Board. Colby joined the Foreign Service in 1951 and was as- signed to Stockholm and Rome. A decade later, he jumped to the CIA, serving in a number of capacities, including directing the no- torious Phoenix pacifica- tion program in South Viet- nam during the Vietnam conflict. He served as CIA director from 1973 to 1976 and is now a Washington-based attor- ney specializing in interna- tional law. People who have been close to him over his career have described him as being a cold, quiet and unassum- ing man who has an unswerving firmness and unflinching nerves. In yesterday's interview, he was guarded in his re- sponses and refused to dis- cuss sensitive issues regard• ing the organization he once headed. However, Colby was out-

"Suppos you have a band of terrorists, say backed by Libya and Mr. (Moammar) Kh dafy, plotting and planning subversive activihc against this government," said the 61-year-old former CIA director.
