Page 10 THE EIGHTH TRIBE June, 1977 declared neutrality. They ask help from the West only to guarantee that neutrality. Western observers in Moscow have noticed from time'to time in the past that the Russians are under great strain and are alarmed by the restlessness and revolutionary activities in the People’s Republics. They fear the consequences of a new military intervention, the reaction against them in the event of a new Polish, Czech or Hungarian revolution. So let the Cyrus Vance State Department work out a program that will make it possible for the Russians to leave Central East Europe without major political, ideological or military humiliation. Toward these new, concerted efforts, I wish you the very best. Sincerely, Joseph Pesti 248 Bookerdale Road Waynesboro, Va. 22980 News In Briefs: USA AND HUNGARY SIGN CULTURAL EXCHANGE PACT The United States and Hungary signed a two-year cultural and scientific agreement in Budapest, April 5, 1977.

HUNGARIAN ART EXHIBITED IN DETROIT Fifty paintings created by Joseph Mor, one of Europe’s most talented artists, was on display and for sale at Holy Cross Catholic Church, 8423 South St., Detroit. Co-chairmen of the exhibit were Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Voros, of Lincoln Park. Born in February, 1908, in Hungary, Mor earned a professional degree at the College of Applied Arts, in Budapest. Following his graduation, he began his career by painting murals, frescos and icons in churches throughout Hungary. Mor arrived in the United States in 1967 and became a member of the World Federation of Hungarian Artists. Highlights of his career include his affiliation as a restorer and teacher with the De Kiss Art Co., in Philadelphia, and his 12 linoleum cuts in commemoration of the Apollo Moon Landing, entitled “The Evolution of Man,” which is housed at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Center. Currently, Mor is working closely with Graphic Laboratories in the unique production of a series of line drawings covering the total history of man. Among the artist’s most famous students are Mike Douglas, the well-known television personality, and Mrs. Douglas.
