Dr. Ingram Describes
Churchill Funeral
By Dr. Irvine S. Ingram,
President Emeritus West
Georgia College
For fear of being misunder
stood I want to express my deep
appreciation and affection for the
English people, but 1 write as
follows.
On this Saturday I have wit
nessed by television and satel
lite the funeral ceremonies of
perhaps the world's greatest man
of modern times. The pomp
and grandeur intrigued me. It
was a scene out of the past. The
British seem to like such oc
casions. They enjoy the class
system. Fortunately, for us,
some Englishmen did not. so
they sought a new land. But
the pageantry was so unusual
and exciting. Every piece of
costume and decoration meant
something.
During the twelve hours or so
of recording I suppose that I
heard one hundred times from
various commentators that the
Queen was so gracious. And
she Is. . .beautiful, perfect in
decorum, and dedicated to her
position. But It was repeatedly
stated that this was the first
time in decades that royalty had
attended the funeral of a common
er. Ido not like the connota
tions ''commoner” and ‘‘royal
ty”.
I wonder what they believe is
the difference of the blood cell
of royalty and the blood cell of
a so-called common man or
“commoner”. Os course there
is no difference. But the British
people like this designation. They
like this so-called play. They
pay taxes In the millions to main
tain and perpetuate this system.
Other ruling royal establish
ments like to live and act like
the people they rule. Not so
the British. While there have

been state funerals, none have
reached the mammouth show,
wide and varied participation as
the funeral of Sir Winston
Churchill.
Unlike the occasion caused by
the tragic death of President
Kennedy, there was no mourning
or grief. Sir Winston was an
old man. He had lived his life
well. This gave the British
opportunity to see their people
dressed up before the world.
On the other hand, our young
president, brilliant and courage
ous, died a tragic death. Sir
Winston closed a great era;
President Kennedy marked the
beginning of a new era and change.
Fate denied Kennedy the op
portunity to play his full part.
A young wife and young children
were left. Young men, the pro
duct of the nuclear age, must
lead as Sir Winston did in his
earlier years. At no time in the
history of the United states has
our country been more unpopu
lar. Yet we are the leader of the
free world. Old men of free
Europe, as DeGaulle, are chal
lenging our leadership.

A survey revealed that after mar

but at least 25% wanted a career.
The program revealed that all

the opportunity. They appreciate
very fully that “our values to
