Karabagh and those who were in Azerbaijan.
Zeytountsian then added, "More than
1600 historic and religious pieces of architecture exist in Karabagh and not even one
medieval Muslim statue. Of the vast
number of villages once located in Karabagh, only a couple remain. Where there
were once 19 different Armenian newspapers in Shusha in 1916, today none remain. Pcrcstroika has meant very little to
Armenia - they have seen little economic/
social benefit from it." He stated that the
only thing Armenians have received have
been massacres.
The most resounding statement made
by Zeytountsian came near the conclusion
of his speech. He quoted famous French
writer Anatoly France, who said in 1916,
"Those small drops of blood still possessed by Armenians will someday generate heroes." Heroes it generated indeed.
Barlow Der Mugrdechian of the A.S .P.
introduced each of the A.S.P. scholarship
recipients, commenting on their majors
and their Armenian related activities. The
students were recipients of Charles Pategian and Pansy Zlokovich Pategian Scholarships, Yervant, Rose, and Hovannes
Levonian Educational Grants, and Knights
of Vartan Scholarships.
Dr. Kouymjian then introduced keynote speaker Lucy Saroyan, describing
her as a "one woman international symposium." Saroyan, who has been an actress
for over twenty years, has had roles in
movies such as Hopscotch, Blue Collar,
and the television show Mannix. She
currently resides in San Fransisco, in the
former home of her father and aunt, and is
busy writing.
Saroyan read some excerpts from her
father's book Mama. I Love You - a book
written and published specifically for her
when she was nine years old. William
Saroyan wrote the book hoping that his
Lucy Saroyan and Berj Zeytountsian
in downtown Fresno.
daughter would someday write a book for
him - a book that she said she would title
Papa. I Love You. "I find writing a challenge," she stated, "despite the fact that I
always saw how easy it was for my father
to write."
During the few days Zeytountsian and
Saroyan were in Fresno, they had the
opportunity to visit many of the Armenian
landmarks of Fresno. Together ihey visited William Saroyan's homes in Fresno,
the monument to Soghomon Tehlirian at
the Massis Armenia cemetery, and an emotional visit to the permanent William Saroyan exhibit at the Fresno Metropolitan
Museum.
