J. U. G.-ing AROUNDWell, the J.U.G.S's have done

it again! They have put them-selves out front again in theranks of those actively concern-ed with social progress amongthe Negroes of Memphis.And we don't mean "out

front" in the commonly accept-ed or expected sense when"social progress" is mentioned.A lot of folk hereabouts havethe idea that any reference to"social progress" refers todances, fashion shows, houseparties and the like. And usual-ly the intent or the motive be-hind such events is purely inthe area of fun and good-timingdesigned to satisfy a selectgroup of individuals. That'swhat many clubs exist to do. . . and that only.

But the J.U.G.'s is an organi-zation of young Negro women(now 14 in number) to whomdances, fashion shows, and thelike, are only means to a largersocial end. They use their own

social appeal, their own know-ledge of the feelings and pleas-ure yens of local colored folk,their own rather specialized"know-how" about giving so-cial and entertainment affairsto do a great deal more thanprovide "a rocking good time."UNIQUE STANDARDThe J.U.G.'s have set a uni-

que standard for social clubsin Memphis with the motivationthey always place behind theirsocial events. They have at-tracted wide attention withtheir entertainment affairs insupport of a project to provideclasses, for retarded Negrochildren. They have used theproceeds of their really enjoy-able entertainment and socialevents to help get the servicesof the Les Passes TreatmentCenter enlarged t, include cere-bral palsied Negro children.The name, "Les Passees," re-fers to a group of young Mem-phis white women, whose

fy that Negroes could onlyvisit that establishment oneday per week. Last weeksigns like these were takendown when the Park Com-mission said Negroes werenow welcome anyday in theweek. The smaller sign (in-set) being carried by a col-

She had to go into aneighboring county to pay cashfor a Cadillac.5. Journalists trying to get

facts about the situation arequestioned and harassed by lawofficers. A correspondent forThe Southern Patroit, publishedby the Southern Conference Ed-ucational Fund, was stopped bythe chief deputy sheriff in Fay-ette County. The deputy saidhe was looking for a burglarysuspect. The correspondent wasalso taken into custody by theHaywood County sheriff but

was later released.White landowners delayed the

removal of Negro farmers thisfall because especially heavyrains made the cotton hard topick and they were late gettingit in. Therefore the Negroeswere given until January 1 toleave.

Negro leaders say that a law-suit filed by the federal gov-ernment against officials inHaywood County has not hadmuch effect in stopping the boy-cott. What is needed is criminalcharges for violating the rightsof American citizens. Letters tothat effect to the Departmentof Justice. Washington. D. C.,are in order.One Negro leader reported:

"People living on the land 40,50, and 60 years are being up-rooted. They have no ideawhere they are going. The ideaof the landowners is to get theNegro population to dwindle sothat we won't be a majority.Don't ever lose sight of thatfact."

NAACP Puts Heat On

Bry's KressProsecute Kids

Almost simultaneously as the Zoo and Art Gal.lery of Memphis decided to end their one-day ruleand let Negroes visit these establishments on anyday of the week, the Memphis Branch NAACP wasworking on a plan to speed up the fight against down-town merchants to end the segregated seating inlunch counters.Rumor has it that although

the Zoo and Gallery had beenIntegrated "some time back,"as an official said, the ParkCommission was waiting untilcold weather set in to keep theattendance at the Zoo to a mini-mum. Before last week's an-nouncement Negroes could onlysee nature's wonders on Thurs-days.Meanwhile on other intergra-

tion fronts, Negro adults, busi-nessmen and ministers revivedthe sit-in approach to the biasfight and tried their luck atGoldsmith's Oak Room.ENTER GOLDSMITHShortly after 12 noon last

Thursday seven Memphis Ne-gro businessmen entered Gold-smith's swanky Oak Room onthe fifth floor of the downtowndepartment store. This was saidto be a test to see if Negroeswould be served just as whitecustomers or thrown in jail.The Negro patrons sat pati-

ently in the eating facility formore than an hour and wererefused service. In the midstof turmoil that followed, (whichseems to be the case when Ne-groes assert themselves as first-class citizens), the restaurantmanager stood outside and re-fused to let more white cus-tomers inside, telling them that"the Oak Room is closed."After having been told flatly

that Negroes are not served inthe Oak Room, the Negroeswent promptly to Mr. Gold-smith's office and made in-quiries as to the policy of treat-ing customers.COMMITTEE OF SEVENThe commtitee of seven in-

cluded: A. Maceo Walker, pres-ident of the Memphis 'Tri-StateBank and Universal Life In-surance Co: Jesse H.

smith's office by B. Lesley,superintendent of the store.When asked about the policyof serving customers, Lesleystated that "I do not know, yoUwill have to see Mr. Goldsmithand he is out of town present-ly." In almost a tone of apology.Lesley further stated that "Iappreciate the orderly manner

1 (Continued From Page I)outlook is the same as that ofthe members of the J.U.G.'s.What puts the J.U.G.'s out

front again this year is theiradoption of a project which isone of the most needed, themost significant, and at thesame time, one of the mostcharitable enterprises thatcould be taken up by a local Ne-gro organization. They havedecided to take the first stepamong local Negroes to dosomething practical and logicalabout the problem of illegiti-macy and unwed mothers in theNegro populace.In a letter the J.U.G.'s are

sending to clubs, individuals,and business institution all overMemphis (white and Negro)the J.U.G.'s are saying this:NO MONOPLY"There is no place for mono-

poly in trying to impress thesituation for our girls. Thoseof us who are dubbed leadersparticularly in the Negro com-munity are forever running intocriticism regarding the behavi-or of our Negro female. Shejust has babies without any re-spect for the responsibility ofoffering the baby a legal fath-er's name and protection."The J.U.G.'s were referring

to the great number of Negrogirls in Memphis who havebabies without being in a posi-tion to name the father or keeptheir children from being ob-jects of charity. They were re-ferring to one of the gravestcharges the white communitybrings against Negroes in theirquest for human dignity andfirst-class citizenship. Theywere facing up to the chargethat Negroes are morally unfitto be accepted as equals on anintegrated basis. That's one ofthe core points of the integra-tion struggle. White folk don'tthink Negroes are fit or readyfor equal status. The high in-cidence of illegitimate Negrobabies is one of their strongestarguing points. The J.U.G.'spropose to do something aboutit.They propose, in short, to pro-girls who show up with babiestrack the first time and throughprofessional counseling to helpthe girls stage a comeback.They propose, inshort, to pro-vide enough money to hiresomeone to advise and helpgirls who are the victims ofneglect, ignorance, and lust.ASK FOR SUPPORTThe J.U.G.'s are asking the

truth about it, I don't like going'steady because you will bebored with one girl all the time.I don't think you should gosteady unless you plan to wed.Linda Pegues: I don't think

high school students should gosteady. Teenagers need theexperience of a variety of as-sociates rather than keepingcompany with one person al-ways. Going steady brings ontoo many problems.From time to time we will get

Baton RougeBy Mrs. M. N. Ringgold

Well, our city is getting backto normal since the differentorganizations have ended theirsessions and most of the mem-bers have returned to their re-spective homes. An estimatednumber of 7,000 were in at-tendance for the sessions of theL. E. A. meeting held at CapitolAvenue School. We regret nothaving the number of the auxil-iary groups that met here atthe same time, but will juststate that large numbers ofboth t h e Retired Teachergroups, the Parent Teachergroups, etc. increased the num-ber unusually well above whatit used to be.

STARKVILLEBy Mrs. Fannie Moore

Mrs. Catherine Yeates Rob-

We are glad our sister, Mrs.Givens, returned from NewYork in time to participate inthe interesting sessions of theL. E. A. How she can manageto cover such distances puzzlesus, but she arrived in time toparticipate in the sessions of thedifferent auxiliaries of the L.E. A. and to participate in oneor two discussions, etc.We are really glad to have

been able to attend some of thesessions although not well. Andlsitting through sessions while

formerly of Canton, now mak-ing her home with her aunt anduncle, Mr. and Mrs. ForrestSmith had as her guest for theThanksgiving holidays MissYvonne Riley of Canton, Miss.Miss Riley is a sophomore inthe A. M. Rogers High School,Canton, Miss.

President Collier presided,made us feel almost well. Wewere elated also, when we real-ized that after all those yearsof being organized, and withsuch large numbers of womenmembers in the organization, itis strange that only two womenpresidents have ever been elect-ed for this large organization.These two: Mrs. M. N. Ring-gold, the first one, and Miss C.M. Collier, the present one. AndMiss Collier did a splendid jobas president of this large groupof teachers. For after all theseyears of the organibation, morewomen should have been elect-ed to office. They are certainlycapable. So let us then be upand doing. Getting leaders.

The Junior Matrons Club cov-ered themselves with glorywhen they presented the Debu-tantes of 19130 at a Tea in Buch-anan School, 1222 East Buchan-an at. We can safely say thateverything was beautiful. Thelarge reception room, the wellarranged banquet table, thebeautiful girls in their verybeautiful evening gowns. Every-thing was perfect.

We were happy to receive avisit from Miss Norma Butler,our former neighbor.

Baton Rouge members ofBethel A.M.E. church are griev-ed over the change in pastorsjust made by their Bishop. TheRev. R. H. Tucker will go toNew Orleans and the Rev.Walker, formerly in San An-tonio will replace him in Bethelchurch here. Both are rated asgood material. Both havefriendly, interested wives; sothe new fields of pastoring willsurely be pleasant for all con-cerned.

We were so glad to partici-pate in the election of officersin the L.E.A. for with its auxil-iary groups, it is now one of theoutstanding of Louisiana's or-ganizations. I. e., The ParentTeacher organization, the Re-tired Teachers Organization,the Official organization, etc.much is expected and much canbe done. So, we must start to-day.We have come to the con-

clusion that participation inStyle Shows when students workis exhibited means encourage-ment to them. So let's havemore of them for our pupils insewing, etc.

SERVING 1,000,000 NEGROES IN THE TRI-STATE AREA

Our Opinions

The Battle Goes OnThe four Negro tots who were es-

corted by Federal marshals into the

formerly all-white schools in New Or-leans are a touching advance guard —the very first to break the race barrierin the Deep South.

New Orleans itself will sooner orlater come around to the view that it isbetter to accept a little racial integra-tion and keep the schools open than tohave the state close them to keep Ne-groes out.

The clearest evidence of this is thevictory, in the recent election, of a can-didate for the school board who tookthis stand. He won more votes than histhree segregationist opponents combin-ed. Three of the other four members ofthe board have long argued that thecity has no choice but to obey the courtoraer.

The denial by a panel of Federaljudges of the board's request for a sus-pension of the District court order tointegrate the elementary schools of thecity of New Orleans, further weakensthe position of the segregationists.

The courts have pronounced uncon-stitutional the laws passed by the spe-csal session of the state legislaturewilich were meant to maintain segre-gation. Moreover an injunction has beenissued against the Legislature's attemptto take over control of the school s,while a charge of contempt of court hasbeen brought against the state super-intendent of schools.

The schools remain open, the fourNegro children rep ort fearlessly to

their respective classrooms bravingevery day a jeering, angry crowd offeeble-minded racialists acting underthe guidance and leadership of the noto-rious White Citizens Council. It is un-fortunate that public opinion in NewOrleans was not prepared for a racialcrisis in its schools.

In Atlanta, (which need not com-ply until next year) a far-seeing groupof citizens and parents has been at workfor years and the Atlanta Constitutionhas given a strong liberal lead. In NewOrleans it was only this summer thatparents began to organize to save theschools. They had been led to believe bythe Times-Picayune, the city's onlymorning newspaper, that the schoolscould be kept open without acceptingany racial integration. It is to the cred-it of WDSU, the civic-minded televisionstation, that it provided leadershipwhen the press failed to do so.

For a time this fall, it seemed asthough a group of influential business-men in Louisiana might persuade theGovernor to give in gracefully, keep theschools open and avoid an open clash onthe pattern of Little Rock, between thestate and the Federal government.

When the parents started to organ-ize, these businessmen plucked up cour-age to point out to the Governor thatthe closing of the schools throughoutthe state to avoid racial integrationwould involve a heavy economic loss.The education of thousands of childrenwould be interrupted and the migrationof new industries into the state mighthalt.

Colonialism Still AliveThe debate on colonialism which has

been going on in the United NationsGeneral Assembly should be welcomedtus a sign that at last the world has be-gun to face the realities of our times.

Since Ghana and Guinea have se-cured their autonomy, some eighteenother African states have been admit-ted into the circle of the family of inde-pendent nations.

Yet colonialism, though perhapsmoribund, is not yet completely dead.Great Britain and Portugal still haveAfrican possessions they are holdingonto, with little or no reassuring indica-tion of an early time-table for their re-linquishment.

The principle of self-determinationwhich is an integral part of the United

Nations Charter is now being used asa basis for demanding an end to all colo-nial regimes. With the growing numer-ical strength that increases its prestigeand power day by day, the Afro-Asianbloc may succeed in creating a climateof opinion in the United Nations inwhich the colonial powers which holdmembership in the world organizationmay find their position untenable.

While the Western democracies havewelcomed the new African nations intotheir midst, it would appear to be amere matter of protocol. For very littleis being done to assist the new states intheir efforts toward economic and in-ternal stability except when Russianpenetration seems imminent.

A Native Son Dies A broadWhen Richard Wright died the other

day in Paris, a literary giant of no or-dinary dimension fell, bringing to anend an era of introspection in whichAmerica's social sins were revealed withfrightening accuracy.

The nation was going through thecrucible of war on a scale never beforeexperienced by mankind, when NATIVESON, Wright's most incisive novelflashed like a meteor across the literaryfirmament. It was not a mere piece offiction; it was a provocative social docu-ment that shocked America. For neverbefore nor since has there been so sharpand poignant expose of this country'sincredible racialism as was portrayedin NATIVE SON.

It was social surgery performedw'th all the requisite sensitive skill of amaster-surgeon. Yet Wright accom-plished this rare feat with an incom-parable gentility and tenderness ofstyle. He knew America better than anyof his contemporaries.

His bouts with race prejudice and itsattendant evils were at close range. Hissoul was seared With bitterness. Bornon a plantation in Mississippi, and edu-cated in a segregated religious schoolthrough the ninth grade. RichardWright saw life in its most rugged as-pects, in all its naked ugliness.

He worked as a porter, street cleaner, dishwasher, postal clerk, any ochjob. He was often unemployed anahungry, and was on relief during theearly days of the New Deal era. It wasnot until 1937, wheners Project came intodecent job of writingof his short storiesthe CHICAGO DEFE

After the success of hisBLACK BOY, his autobiography thatwas a Book-of-the-Month Club selec-tion, Wright moved to France where hefound the freedom denied him in hishomeland.

All of his novels and plays were astricture of the vicious racial moreswith which American democracy isidentified. His ultimate hope was togoad America into redemption of itssoul through a searching consciousnessof its own misdeeds. It is a great pitythat destiny stilled his voice before hisdream came to fruition. But death doesnot end evetything. There is a higherrewar d: that of transmitting one'sname to posterity.

About Poop'', PlacateAwl Praetors's

By FRANK L STANLEY

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Among

the many possible post-mor-

tems on the November 8 elec-tion is an indulgence in "whatmight have been done." OnDecember 12, 1958, Robert J.Donovan reported in the Chi-cago Sun-Times:

"The principal subject of asecret meeting among VicePresident Nixon and threecabinet members was civilrights legislation.

"The Vice President and thethree cabinet colleagues—Atty.Gen. William P. Rogers. LaborSecretary James P. Mitchelland Dr. Arthur Flemming,Secretary of Health, Educationand Welfare—favor forthrightR,publican legislation in thecivil rights field at the forth-coming session of Congress. .

"Those who believe, likeNixon and his three colleagues,that the President must submita positive civil rights programto Congress are convinced theRepublicans will suffer serious-ly in 1960 if he does not. Theyalso believe that introductionof administration civil rightslegislation will split the Demo-crats in Congress, making itharder for the northern and

southere wing of the party tohold together in the next Presi-dential election."As of the moment. the Presi-

dent has made no decision asto what he will propose in thisfield."Today, roughly two years

after, certain conclusions areapparent.

Vice-President Nixon's mar-gin of defeat was small enoughfor the Negro vote—if he hadwon it, or even held it to itspercentages of 1952 or 1956, hecould have won the election.The failure of President

Eisenhower to unequivocallysupport even the Supreme Courtdecision of 1954, let alone CivilRights generally, certainly costVice-President Nixon many Ne-gro votes.Finally, Mr. Nixon himself

and Republican party campaignstrategists sacrificed the Negrovote in favor of wishful, but notrealistic, southern votes.Perhaps in 1904, Senator John

Sherman Cooper, if permitted,can show the next Republicancandidates not only how to winNegro votes through forthrightperformance in their behalf, buthow to positively and success-fully go after it.

Two major Negro medical col-leges will participate in a pio-neering experiment in medicaleducation next week.Meharry Medical College of

Nashville, Tenn. and TuskegeeInstitute of Alabama, will co-operate in a Teleposium onheart disease on December 7.The Teleposium is a new con-cept in medical education. Itconsists of a closed circuittelephone hook-u-- which willpermit professors at each in-stitution to address physiciansand medical students at bothschools simultaneously.Some 400 physicians, both

In addition, the sys-tem exposes the physicians toteachers whom they might notnormally "meet."Dr. D. T. Rolfe, dean of

By EVERT VAN DAM

LISBON, Portugal — (UP!)—Prime Minister Antonio DeOliveira Salazar has warnedoutsiders to stop meddling inAfrican affairs and made itclear Portugal would not acceptUnited Nations interference inits territories.

The 71-year-old Portugueseleader, making his first majorpublic speech in two years, tolda packed national assembly thehasty abandonment of Africanterritories by the Europeanpowers in a crime against theblack man.

The Portuguese overseasprovinces in Africa includeAngola, Cape Verde Islands,Mozambique, Portueguese Guin-ea, Sao Tome And Principe Is-lands. Other Portuguese posess-ions are Macao and PortugueseIndia (Goa) in Asia, and Timorin Oceania.

Salazar said the phrase "Af-rica is for Africans" was "in-flammatory" and would not9olve the continent's problems.He said Europe still has great

duties to perform in Africa andemphasized that Portugal doesnot intend to pull out.Salazar said there will be

"very serious difficulties forthose who intend to dedicatethemselves now to the task ofemancipating Portuguese Af-rica."He added that Portugal al-

ready has achieved unity in itsoverseas world and it wouldnot allow transfers, cession orabandonment. He also said theplebiscite, referendum and self-determination do not fit in thePortuguese empire's structureeither.Portugal "can not agree to

justify before the United Na-tions the way in which it con-siders it should govern itselfin its own homeland," Salazarsaid.The prime minister said Por-

tugal is not ashamed of its Af-rican record and that much stillremains to be done in the fieldsof communications, health andeducation."Even in these as in many

other fields when compared toothers we do not feel ashamed,"he said.Salazar insisted that Portu-

SMAICAERS AND .FAICE PA iiANDMIZSIn Skin Color

By DARRELL GARWOOD

WASHINGTON — (UPI) —A Washington skin specialistproduced evidence at the Ameri-can Medical Association meet-ing that drugs in some casescan make black people white orwhite people black.The specialist was Dr. Robert

Stolar. He was accompanied bya white-skinned Negro woman,who did not identify herself butwho said that under his treat-ment she has been white for15 years.

Stolar said he has accom-plished the same result in 16cases.Stolar stressed that he ad-

ministers the treatment only topatients who have blotchedskin such as cafe-au-lait spotsor other "disturbances of pig-mentation."He said it has not so far prov-

ed possible to provide whiteskin for Negroes with no pig-mentation disturbances. But hedid not rule out this possibilityfor the future.He also commented that a

number of his Negro patients,when given the choice of whiteor dark akin, preferred dark.Many others were uninterestedin extending the treatment tothe entire body once the faceskin had been made uniform.The technical name of the

drug used in the treatment is''monobenzyl ether of hydro-quinine." It is used in anointment which is applied ex-ternally. Initially the applicationis daily; later it may taper offto once in six months.Stolar called it "a very satis-

factory drug in reducing pig-mentation in small areas" andsaid that "in those patients whowere persistent enough it pro-duced de-pigmentation over thewhole body." He said the pro-cess is "slow and time-consum-

ing.""It has been our experience

that to be successful there mustbe some basic disturbanceinitially so that the person hasa tendency toward vitiligo andhas some initial spot before thetotal body de-pigmentation canbe successful," he said."We have tried using this

(experimentally) in patientswho have not had any notice-able areas of de-pigmentationand these have shown onlyslight changes without persis-tence of the charges."To make light skin uniform-

ly dark, Stolar said he uses adrug called "8 methoxypsora•len," which is taken by mouthand is followed by ultravioletray treatments to trigger itsaction.Stolar is a graduate of

Georgetown university. In addi-tion to his private practice heserves as a clinical assistantat Georgetown University hospi-tal in Washington.

Nights EndlessDays To SpaniardBy ROBERT ROONEY

"To sleep, perchance todream; Aye, there's the rub;For in that sleep of death whatdreams may come must giveus pause."Act II, Scene 1 of "Hamlet"

by William Shakespeare —MADRID, Spain (UPI)—Valen

tin Medina has always wonder-ed what it feels like to dream.The 61-year-old farm laborer

has had his share of day-dreamslike any other Spanish peasant,but he has had difficulty withthe nocturnal variety becausehe claims he has never slepta wink in his life.'TOTAL INSOMNIA'

Medina insists his illness,termed by doctors as "total in-somnia," has not worried him,but he is bored with life becausethe nights are long and all hisfriends sleep while he liesawake.In an effort to find a cure for

his malady, Medina walked 140miles to Madrid from his homein Southern Castille and under-went examination in ProvincialHospital.Doctors have not made public

their findings. They were im-pressed enough by his story tobuy him a railway ticket homeand Medina left Madrid with aprescription for a sleeping po-tion he hopes will end his in-somnia.WINE DIDN'T WORKBut the 5'6" farm hand did

not have much confidence inthe prescription."The last time some experts

worked me over they advised

me to drink wine just to see ifthe alcohol could cure me," hesaid. "Do you know what hap-pened? The wine gave me morepep and, boy, was I wideawake."Medina's doctor, Thomas

Hidalgo Munoz of La Gineta,said he believes Medina's story.But the doctor admitted he has

never been able to stay withhis patient long enough to prove

his claim."In my opinion," Dr. Hidalgo

said, "It might be a questionof hormones. But I have notbeen able to prove it. Mosteveryone in the town seems toknow that Medina neversleeps."

Medina is illiterate and abachelor.

"I wouid like to know how toread and write" he said. "Nightwould be shorter if I could readbooks. Now I have to sit infront of the kitchen fireplaceand do nothing until the cockcrows."

FASHION AND PERFECT FIT OFFERED TO HOME-SEWERum

One of the biggest sellingpoints of making your ownclothes is the fact that •number of garments can bemade from a single pattern.For the most part, however,home sewers make changes infabric, seeking little variationin line. A new color, a differ-ent fabric make the same de-sign look original.

There wasno room for experimenting andmaking small changes. Evenan experienced dressmakerwas reluctant to stray fromthe cut and dried instructions.

Over a period of time itbecame apparent that the homesewer — by her very interestin sewing — could be offeredmore leeway by pattern makers.She was then able to widen acollar here, add a dart there'without fear of completelyruining the whole project.

Tense Haitian StudentsWander Through Streets

By ANTONY ROUSEPORT AU PRINCE, Haiti —

(UPI) — The tension is evidentin the moody faces of thousandsof students who wander aimless-ly through the streets of thiscity.Although they are on an in-

definite holiday, the studentsare not in a holiday mood.The Republic of Haiti has

been on edge since Nov. 22 whenthe government closed allschools, including kindergartens,for a student strike which of-ficials termed illegal and Com-munist-inspired.The government charged the

nationwide strike was a pre-lude to a plot supported by Cubato overthrow the regime ofPresident Francois Duvalier.MARTIAL LAW

Duvalier moved swiftly andthrew the opposition off balancewhen he imposed martial lawfollowing the student strike andmobilized the army.The President removed sev-,

leral Army officers, dismissedtwo directors of the nationalbank, and expelled RomanCatholic Archbishop FrancisPoirier. Duvalier accused theArchbishop of a "provocativeattitude" and sympathy for thestriking students.The strike was in protest of

the government's failure to tryor release eight students whohave been in prison since Sep-tember for allegedly distributingCommunist pamphlets.

FATE OF STUDENTS

I Legal experts have not yetI been able to determine whetherthe eight jailed students are ac-cusd of plotting or committing

actions against the government.Therefore, the fates of the stu-dents are In doubt.

A threatened strike of bankemployes was a failure withonly a few failing to appearfor work. Other threatenedstrikes also failed to material-ize.

The Government has not indi-cated when or if the defendantswill be brought to trial. Aspokesman simply announcedthat some of the students havebeen sent home under surveil-lance.

Twice in the past student un-rest preceded the overthrow ofa Haitian regime. Diplomaticobservers her.. said the stu-dents, while sympathetic to Cu-ban Premier Fidel Castro'scause, are more interested inobtaining a better standard ofliving than achieving the goalsof Mark and Lenin.

Manassas High News]SAFETY PROGRAM

A safety education was pres-ented just recently to empha-size the true essence of safedriving whether or not you area driver, pedestrian, or bicyc-list. We were honored to haveMrs. Shores, Mrs. Estridge, of-ficer Williams and InspectorRobert F. Gillison all from thePolice Department.

Winsil Morris, conductor ofthis safety program was ourguest speaker relating experi-ences and incidents of his ownin which good driving wouldhave been a good antidoteagainst unfortunate tragedies.

4onspector Gillison introduced,-. Morris. His address wasllowed by a movie and then

an outside demonstration ofsafe driving using WilliamWalker, Barbara Jefferson andM. ')wens, a member of ourfaculty as test drivers. Thisder- onstration illustrated theexpressiion "to stop on a dime"when actually such a phrase asthis is obsolete because onecan't stop within such a limitedamount of space.

The entire program was oneof the most interesting evergiven at the school.Mrs. Hodge and Mr. Owens

were in charge of this programand they truly did a wonderfuljob to produce this show.MIXED CHORUSThe Manassas High Mixed

chorus under the direction ofMrs. B. E. Jones rendered

':sic at the very first meet-In of the Southern Associationof Colleges and Secondaryschools held at Hamilton highschool. The songs renderedArise, 0 Lord, My Loving ShallNot Be In Vain, and Battle,Hymn of the Republic. Judgingfrom the audiennce's reactionthe Mixed chorus of our schoolwas greatly enjoyed and labeledas the best choir on program.

SENIOR SCOUTSThe Senior Girl Scouts of our

school presented an inspiration-al devotional program via inter-com. The theme of their pro-gram was "Giving The Wisdomof the Ages" which correlatedwith the aims and purposes ofeach and every Girl Scout.

Their program was as fol-lows: Music, scripture andprayers, choir selection andnarration. All performed cap-

cy by Marvin Williams, Bes-' Taylor and Gwendolyn Rob-nson.

Mrs. T. Franklin is advisorof this organization and onlythrough patience and hard workthat their advisor put forthcould this program have been the success it was. Mrs. T.Graklin, your job well done!

Publish ChurchBy CLAIRE COX

NEW YORK — (UPI) — Theannual "What's What" inAmerican religion is being dis-tributed by the National Coun-cil of Churches.

Officially called the "Year-book of American Churches,"the 314-page 1961 volume is acompendium of informationabout religions of all denomi-nations, from the number ofmembers each claims to a listof "standard guides to churcharchives."The main content of the book

is the "officially reported" in-formation on officers, statistics,and related matters concerningreligious bodies large andsmall.

INTERFAITH DATAThe 29th issue of the refer-

ence book contains informationon more than 260 idenomination-al bodies — Protestant, Cath-olic, Jewish, Eastern Orthodox,Buddhist, Moslem and others.It is the only information databook of its kind.Dr. Benson Y. Landis. editor

of the Yearbook since 1941, is aMoravian layman who has

spent more than 40 years in in-terdenominational cooperativework.He warns at the outset of the

1961 edition against interpret-ing the number of membersclaimed by the various groupsas the number of persons whoactually attend services."One frequently reads that

church attendance has beenrapidly increasing, whereasthere are no systematic reportsavailable of church attendance,even at the principal Sundaymorning service," Landis

'What's 'What'wrote."There have been a few sam-

ple studies of church attend-ance by polling agencies, butthese are not reports of thechurches."WOMEN PASTORSTotal membership, based on

figures submitted by the var-ious religious bodies, nowstands at more than 112 million.There are more than 373,000'ministers, about 7,000 of themwomen. Construction of reli-gious buildings of all kinds ap-proached the billion-dollar-a-

year mark in 1960.The yearbook reports that

247 church-related and church-controlled Protestant collegeshad an enrollment of more than243,000 students and receivedmore than $19 million a year'from the denominations.The Roman Catholic Church

is described as "the largestsingle body of Christians in theU.S.," with its establishment inAmerica dating back to thepriests who accompanied Col-umbus on his second voyage toNew York.

Gives Tips OnW •

t Hazardsapproaching again with its spe-cial set of driving hazards, mo-torists were warned today bythe Ohio Department of High-way Safety."Reduced visibility, inade-

quate traction, and tempera-ture changes must all be takeninto consideration by the driv-er during the next few months,Director Grant Keys advised.To offset these dangers,

Keys. in conjunction with thenationwide appeal of the As-sociation of State and Provin-cial Safety Coordinators, issuedthe following reminders to mo-torists:(1) Windshield wipers should

be functioning well to clear wind-shields of rain, sleet, or snow.The rubber on the bladesshould be live and the armpressure should be strongenough to clear without smearand without riding over snow.One ounce of arm pressure for

each inch of blade is recom-mended.

(2) Headlights should be prop-erly aimed to light the wayahead at night and they shouldbe depressed for approachingcars. Headlamps may even

have to be used in daylightwhen extremely bad weatherconditions prevail. The defrost-

er should also be functioningin tiptop order to aid vision.(3 To reduce the danger of

icy streets, have tire treads

checked and be sure brakes arefunctioning properly. Pump andrelease brakes to maintain beststeering control, when brakingon ice or slippery snow.

(4) Always carry reinforcedtire chains. Snow tires aresomewhat better than regulartires on winter surfaces, butthey do not equal or replacetire chains for severe weatherconditions.

City of New York Com-mission on Intergroup Rela-

to the recommendation made inthe recent Heald Committee re-port that a $300 a year tuition

fee be charged at all publiccolleges, including the munici-pal colleges.

If such a step were to betaken, said Lowell, it wouldbreak a fine and proud NewYork City tradition of offeringto talented but less privileged

"New York City has takenjustifiable pride in its free high

in the field of tuition-free high-er education, aided by the

State of New York, have serv-ed to inspire minority groups,

because he managed to be,there just ahead of the Chinese. 1And he got it even though hedid not have the $130,000.Bamako is the capital of the

new African state of Mali. Theincident, which happened a fewweeks ago, is symptomatic ofthe competition among diplo-mats trying to fill the vacuumin newly independent areas ofAfrica.The State Department has

launched a crash program toopen seven new embassies inAfrica. to expand others and tosend some 120 additional diplo-mats to the continent.Because independence came

faster than it had anticipated,the department was caughtshort of funds for new embas-sies had to divert money fromother uses and will have to askCongress in January for a sup-plemental appropriation of sev-eral million dollars.The United States plans to

appoint older and more exper-ienced diplomats to the new na-tions on the theory that theywould be in a position to winthe confidence of young Africanleaders.

sured that the less tender, thrif-ty cuts of meat are just as nu-tritious as higher priced cuts.All meats are about 96 percentdigestible, furnishing top quali-ty protein, B-complex vitamins,and essential minerals.

The $130,000 house wouldhave cost perhaps $90,000 inWashington, but real estatecosts are extremely high inmany parts of Africa.Henderson had no funds to

purchase the building with anagreement that the rent wouldgo toward its purchase - henmore funds become available.SOVIET EMBASSIES

Mali is one of the three left-ist-leaning new African states.The others are Guinea and Gha-na. Henderson and his groupfound Soviet embassies only in

There are now six Africanstates in which the UnitedStates has no permanent dip-lomatic representative — Da-homey, Niger, Upper Volta,Central African Republic, Ga-bon, and Chad.U.S. Ambassadors to the Ivo-

ry Coast and the former FrenchCongo serve these six on theside. But African leaders haveindicated they want full-timeU.S. ambassadors as a markof their independence.
