Such an effort reflects Cats participation in striving to help others.
Cat's Involvement In the Chicano movement locally spread Into
many areas and msny of the organizations now In existence were in
some way influenced by Cat's contributions.
Victor Salasar, former CSUF La Rasa Studs** professor and
compadre to Cat (be baptized his son Carlos), said Cat was active at
Fresno SUte in the initial years. Some of the programs Chlcanos and
other minorities now benefit from resulted from efforts such as those

Chavez returns
to CSUF on March 4
paved tbe way for many Chlcanos.
"He was the main thrust here in Fresno," said Antenna. "He had a
lot to offer snd people learned a lot from him. He was in the class of
Pancho Villa and Che. That 'a how we felt about him."
JCATARINO HUKTADO WITH his wif. ond children: Cot. Ir.;
(Bomber);  Corlos  (Conoco*); Angallto:  ond  Mario  EI*no.
The last time Cesar Chaves
came to CSUF. he met the fury of
agriculture in the midst of the
emotional fight over Proportion
14 last October.
Now the world-known founder
and leader of the United Farm
Workers of Americs (UFWA)
labor union returns to "hostile-
Fresno March 4 to deliver s talk
on "Future Alternatives of the
Co-sponsored by the CoUege
Union «nd MEChA, Chavez will
speak in the Men's Gym st 12
'noon in two weeks. CSUF
students may attend free of
chargebut a 81 admission charge
will be Imposed on non-students.
The appeatance is Chavez'
third on the CSUF campus, but
his second this year. His first
appearance was in 1872 during
the union's fight fjgalnal the
grower supported Prop. 22 which
waa defeated. His second visit to
the csmpus tame last October
smidst controversy surrounding
the union-backed Prop. 14, which
also went down to defeat.
During that visit, Chavez faced
a loud and rude audience
combined of both supporters snd
opposert of Prop. U^-i
He said it wss the first time be
hsd not been permitted to speak
on s college campus.
Whether or not Chaves win run
into the same mentality remains
lo be seen, but ss La Rasa
Studies professor Lea Ybarra-
Soriano said recently. Chaves
has come to expect such actions
from anti-UFW elements.
Chaves' history in the fsrm
labor life, as is the esse with
many Chksnos, date* back to a
life of migration: following the
crops during the depression.
After serving time in the Navy
during World War II, Chavez
married Helen Fabela. They
settled In the San Jose barrio, Sal
Si Puedes (Get Out If You Can),
where he first met Fred Ross.
It wss with Ross whom Chaves
began organizing people through
the Community Service
Organization (CSO) in 185*. This
wss a barrio-based self-help
group formed among California
Mexican Americans to par¬
ticipate in conducting voter
registration and to fight racial
and economic discrimlnstion
Although Chavez became the
national director of CSO in the
late lSSO's. he soon departed CSO
because il would not work to
orgsnite farmworkers.
He and his family moved to
Delano, California and began
building the National Farm
Workers AssoclsUon. From thst
point on, Chaves' life became
synonymous with the farm
workers movement.
Cat believed in the concept of Axtlan and was one of tbe founders
and butlders of La Unlversldad de Axtlan. He also helped form the
Fresno chapter of the La Rasa Unlda Party and waa a chairman of the
Brown Berets in its early days in Fresno.
His other involvements Included Millbrook, El Concilio, the
Minority Advisory Committee which oversaw Telemex for Channel
JO-TV, Centro La Familia, the Unlversldad de Campeslnoa Libres,
Inc. (UCLD, and Chepa.
He was also the coach of his son's soccer team.
In the past few years. Cat helped organize Navidad del Valle and its
toy drive so less advantaged Chlcanltos could also enjoy Christmas.
At tbe time of his death, he was employed ss a counselor at Clovis
High School.
Antenna ssid that lately. Cat's Interests snd lifestyle steered more
into indigens.
"He was nationalist in the beginning,'' (aid Antenna. "But lately he
was into the indio. He wss a student of Toshta In indigena, there's no
racism. As he grew,  hit mind grew.  He believed in people,
New MEChA officers elected
Denise Torres,
social welfare major, was
elected CSUF MEChA president
for the Spring Semester last
week.
Other officers elected were
freshman Juan Mendoza, also a
social welfare major, as vice
president, snd sophomore Marty
Gomes as sargeant-of-arms.
Torres, whose past experience
with MEChA Includes mem¬
bership st UC SanU Crux where
on campus ss everything affects
us," ahe said.
"Chlcanos have to learn to
fight racism, prejudice, snd
mscrimlnauon, or whatever it Is
that's supresalng us.
"We hsve to learn to fight tbe
oppressor with his own tools,
which is pontics. MEChA ia alao
a good place to become socially
and culturally aware. Another
function of MEChA is to help
socialise Chicane
government," she said. "Not just
MEChA but Chlcanos In
general."
MEChA  she  said
Al Reyes, who became close to Cat In recent years, said Cat was
"like Tealro Campesino, always a step ahead of the movement."
"Cat was the kind of guy who wouldn't compromise," said Reyes, s
reporter for Channel 30-TV. "He stood up for his people st s Ume when
the mentality against Chicano* was more repressive. He stuck his
neck out."
"His going is making a lot of us see ourselves," Al ssid. "His death
taught us a lot. He's going to serve as inspiration to a lot of people.
"What comes to mind when you think of him Is how he helped
people. It mskes you think how you can help people."
Al recalled that a party given for La Rata Studies Director Alex
Saragoza recently. Cat walked Into the room and Alex said, "Here's
the men who started the Chicano movement In Fresno."
A week before he died, Cal wrote one of his msny poems. It was

A New Day
This is the beginning of s new day
I have been given this day to use as I will
I can waste it or use it for good
Whst I do today is important
Cause I'm exchanging
A day of my life for it
When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever
• .saving in its place whatever I hsve traded for it
When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever
Leaving in its place wha lever I have traded for it
I pledge to myself that it shal be gained not lost
Good not evil, success not failure
In order that I shall not regret the price I paid for this day.
