Miss Crawford stated that she was shockingly surprised when she learned that her autobiography. "My own humble effort," had takÂen top honors in the nation-wide contest Her brilliantly written

pancy in the new program by June 30, 1952, is some $15.000,000. This is but two ten-thousandths of one per cent of the national budget for the next fiscal year, a cost to the tax payer of only ten cents for each in habitant of the nation for the year to provide safeâand sanitary homes Ir. good neighborhoods for about a million and a hair Americans wlio would otherwise be living in slums.
âLow-rent public housing -adds no appreciable burden to the naÂtional debt while it provides bene fits many times over in decreased 'enlf. myde L, -i neo public expenditures for control of delinquency, crime, disease and moÂral degeneration, those evil yet luxurious âhandmaidens of the naÂtionâs slums.â .
The Conference President conÂcluded with a plea for âa dispasÂsionate ,view of the, current housÂing situation by Congress." âThis view, he said, "while recognizing supervening necessities of the naÂtional defense emergency, would nevertheless invoke . a reasonable and equitable solution of the whole housing, problem as it affects all citizens. â
"If materials needed .for defense are not available for housing, then the National Production Authority, created . to estimate and make equitable allocation^, should sot the limitations.- And it should do so for everyone, the necessary cutÂbacks distributed proportionately so that they may be shared equally by all elements of the population.
âAny cutback in the nationâs housing, like that decreed last year from 1,500,000 to 800,000 through credit control, requires the most careful considerations to prevent unfair and unjust affliction .on any group of the population, lest the cry of, discrimination be raised.
âIn its manner of hastily offerÂing the housing cutback, to a vote late on the eve of a week-end reÂcess, with a large, proportion of the membership- absent, the House of Representatives invites suspicion as to whether it has acted conscienÂtiously and .accorded sufficient deÂliberation to an important public problem by the representatives of the people.
âThe country is unfortunately still confronted with a urgent need for slum clearance and .the proviÂsion of adequate and decent dwellÂings at low rent for thousands of veteransâ and other families of low income. Despite extraordinary building, activity by the construcÂtion industry since the close of World War 11, practically all of. this newâ -residential construction has been beyond the reach of low- dneome groups and. the lack of adeÂquate housing at low or even modÂerate rentals continues Increasing-

800,000 orATLANTIC CITY, N. J. May. 18â Lester. B. Granger. Executive DiÂrector of the National Urban LeaÂgue and first Negro elected presiÂdent of' the National Conference of Social Workers in its 78-year hisÂtory, in his first public- statement since assuming office today urged Congress ,to repeal its destruction of the low-rent public housing program and adopt measures to allocate, sacrifices for. the defense emergency equally among all eleÂments of the population, rich as well as poor.
"When the House of RepresenÂtatives, with many of Its members ebsent. voted a cutback May 4th in the low-rent housing program of 50,000 to 5,000 dwelling units for construction during the ' fiscal year 1951-52, it placed the burden of the national defense effort squareÂly on those elements of the popuÂlation least able to bear sacrifices, the nationâs slum dwellers,â Mr Granger said, âThis is a monstrous perversion of .-the Constitutionâs democratic, mandate^, since it means the poor wil have to suffer the horrors of overcrowding, lack cf sanitation, and their attendant moral degeneracy, while families lit higher Income rackets are paratlvely little affected,â Granger said. He added that disastrous consequences of Congressional action are the cern not only of the entire social work profession." more than 5.000 of whose delegates were attending the Conference, "but of citizens in every state with slum clearance programs under way.â
Citing 1950 U. S Census statisÂtics that 39 percent of all gainfulÂly employĂ©d families in the JInited States earned less, than $2,000 per annum, effectively precluding their occupancy of decent and adequate private housing at current rentals, Mr, Granger pointed out that the Census survey had also disclosed continued existence of. 2 1-2 million delapidated dwellings in American cities and 3,400.000 dwellings lackÂing private toilet facilities, running water or both. All of this AmeriÂcan substandard housing is occuÂpied by non-whites and whites in a ratio of 4 to 1, he stated.âThe Housing Act of 1949. amend
ing the original U. S. ' Housing Act of 1937, authorized construction or 810,000 low-rent dwelling units at a rate of 135.000 per year for six years," Mr. Granger said. âLast. July when hostilities broke out in Korea, President Truman reduced to 30,000 the number of units to go into construction in the period end ing December 31. 1950.

Maxim is going to be one of the most perfectly conditioned boxÂers in history when he fights Heavyweight Champion Ezzard Charles in a 15-round title bout Wednesday night at the Chicago Stadium. . » âą
The 29-yesr-old light heavyweight king, began training far tils/âchance, of a lifetimeâ nearly 'three months ago. Maxim lost three close, decis- .; ions to Cahrles in previous matches biit the clever Italian /from CleveÂland says he is certain to win this 'time of stamina 'is the deciding actor.
Maxim has boxed' 230 rounds with formidable sparring partners and / has run 90 miles.
. Charles has drilled only half an hard since he began training on April 28. The Champion, however., is a 3- to 1 favorite.. .The match will be the eighth Title defense for Charles since he won the crown in Chocago 2 years ago . He .whipped Maxim twice in 1942 in Pittsburgh and in Cincinnati over 10 rounds. Charles beat Maxim again in 1949 in Cincinnati at 15 rounds.
The Referee in each of the three bouts awarded the decision to MaxÂim. This fact has prompted the 175-pound. Championâs manager. Jack Kearns, to ask the Illinois Ath- ; letic Commission to name two men who normally referee to act as judÂges.
Both fighters expect to weigh 180 pounds But Charles will carry away the heaviest amount of cash win-or-lose He is guaranteed 10 per cent of the net gate receipts and $40,000 for the Television Rights Maxim will get 20 per cent of the iicket money and $20,000 from the T V sponsors
A crowd of 12,000 is expected to ipay approximately $75,000 to witness the match.
Charles and Maxim have been reasonably quiet with their preÂfight predictions but â ' their respecÂtive manager have been unreasonÂably loud. ,
Little Jake Mintz says Charles 'wen't show any mercyââ on.Maxim this time. Kearns ri ecjually.taper-, v'ous to pain and rtpiiest;TMgJCttkl will not only win the title but heâll win it by.a knockout.â

(A) Kid Chocolate's Christian name was Eltglo Sardanis. He was born in 1907 at Hav.npa, Cuba
The junior lightweight title was officially created Nov. 18, 1921 when George K. O. Chaney. Baltimore, faced Johnny Dundee (The Scotch Wap) In New York City in a 15 rounder. Dundee won in five rounds on a foul.âAs Champion. Dundee defended twice: He whipped Jack Bernstein in 1923 in 15 rounds. He tost the title to Steve (Kid) Sullivan June 20, 1924 in a 15 round decision. â '

EVANSTON, Illinois â West- lej-n Conference- faculty rĂ©pa-esen- tatlves voted Friday to extend the Rose Bowl football pact with the Pacific Coart Conference on a one- two year basis
The Pact, .whereby no big ten team can appear lnthe New Year's Day Classic in Pasadena more than once in every two years, presumably was etended for three years to con was extended for three years to con ierenceâs oontaot with thĂ© tournaÂment of Roses Committee.
TFJe previous pa<|-, which rar. for five years, was on the basis oi one appearance every three years by the same team.
rile announcement of extending â the pact was made by Kenneth Little Big Ter. Faculty representative from Wisconsin, following Ă joint meeting with Athletic directors.
No announcement was made on the vote, but it was assumed it was
Of course, there have been giants among trackmen, like those Irish Behemoths who used to pul the shot and throw the hammer a quarter century ago. who were.noted iron men.
But there have been and still are countless thousands of skin- ney birds on the cinder tracks whose endurance is almost beÂyond belief.
Take a look, for Instance, at . some of those little fellows who
run the 26 miles of the maraÂthon and finish so fresh they can step out for a night of dancing. ,They may be featherweights, or
even only batams, but they can compete for hours at a stretch and if they were fighters of 15-round bouts -for them would be just a breeze.
Many of them may appear to the uninitiated as - though they were about ready for a hospital stret-
cher. But donât be deceived by apÂpearances. Those same âweaklingsâ* arc as tough as rawhide. .
âThey would laugh at what a professional ball player call a tough day. They think nothing of spending hours running or jumping or pole vaulting or putting the shot and they take
It all in stride; And for free. You may recall that Joe McGin-
nity was called the âiron mariâ beÂcause he could pitch doubleheaders.
Shucks, some of these lads will burn up more energy' in three hours than the âiron manââ would have used in a week. Take for instance, Andy Stanfield
of . Seton Hal College, Charley Moore of Cornell and Bob Carty ol Manhattan as off-hand examples.
Stanfield and Carty can run three 100-yard dashes, three 200 yard sprints and perhaps take half a. dozen or more shots at the running broad jump.
Think thatâs easy? Well, try runÂning two miles races in one afterÂnoon, to say nothing ofâ the other stuff, and youâll quickly discover bow tough it is.
This is nothing new for track stars; They always have been doing it. We recall that Barney Ewell of Penn State for three straight years won the 100, 220 and broad jump and donât forÂget that he had qualifying rounds in each event.Tough, why these .birds would
think a'football game was just ah easy work-out.

NEW YORKâWhoâs James. Carter and what does he want ? Answers: Heâs the new LightÂweight Champion of the world, and all he wants to do is make a living.
The day after Carter's .amazing TKO title victory over champ Ike Williams at Madison Square GarÂden. somebody asked him:
'What you going to do now. champ? Rest up?â
Carter, a lean, 27-year-old native ot Aiken S. Câ who now lives in the Bronx in New York, managed a weak grin.
âI been resting for five years," he said. âFive years of fighting for little or no money.â ' '
Training for last Friday night's flglit with Williams cost Carter about $3,500. His end of flic purse for one of the biggest title upsets In boxing lore was $3,628, of which only $1.378 came out of the GarÂdenâs record-low $13,260 gate that was paid by 3,394 fans. The rest of Carterâs take came â Television rights.What Carter and his
Willie Ketchum, would .... is give Williams a return This one would pull as ____thousands as the other one didnât.'
But Williams is acting chary It is said iie was so confident of beating Carter that he waived the customary rematch clause is the contract for tlie fight. At any rate, the rematch clause wasnât in it.
But Williams has shown no acÂtive desire to press his unwritten rights for another showdown. The strain lie underwent making the weight of 135 pounds emphasized clearly his desire to get out of tlie lightweight class and campaign as a welterweight.It he does, who's left for Carter to
fight in the talent-poor 135-pound division? Itâs hard to name a single worthy challenger

Pitching 85 Percent Of BaseballâConnie Mack
>.'â
BASEBALLWASHINGTON, ,D. C. â The
recent flurry of interest in Ted Williams, who has been slumping along most of this year, percentage wise, was fanned by a Ty Cobb reÂmark that top hitters ought to be able to hit to left field. Evidently irked by this comment, Ted poked out three hits next day, to left field. He said afterwards he just
âhit outside pitches, whereas the 'pitchers usually threw him inside stuff.
Those three hits brought his batting average up to something
__ like .230âa far cry from the .466 Williams socked one year with the Red Sox. But no one expects WilÂliams to stayâat .230 or .240 level. Like all good hitters he will reÂcover from his current, slump and get back into the groove. But the Cobb comment is interesting, and
âgives an insight-into the baseball philosophy of the man most old-
. time players believe to be the gameâs best all-time competitor.
just as Cobb said, toe best ' players bit to any and all fields
and place their hits. In addiÂtion to that, to be tops, in Cobbâs book, a âą player should be
âą fast on toe bases, and good in every other department. That
. â âąems to .be toe .one .thing gen-
Take Cobb for example. Why do most old-time ball players pick him as the number one player the game has produced? Itâs -because he was a great hitter,., also a great fielder, plus being a great runner. Babe Ruth was another all-time great who was good in most of the departments. He was a magnificent pitcher, .perhaps the gameâs greatÂest, hitterâcertainly the greatest homerun hitterâand a good fielder
The Babe couldnât run the bases like Cobb, though. There was nothÂing Cobb couldnât do. He manuÂfactured runs whenever he got on base. He often scored from first on a single. He could place a hit anywhere, and holds the highest batting average of all players, a lifetime mark of .367â25 points higher than Ruth's mark. He got that average by being able to hit to any field.
âCobb was also great. on_buntSr- and scored many a run by success?- fully laying down a bunt.
In âcomparing such as Williams and DiMaggio with Cobb and Ruth, one must not forget either that Cobb and Ruth' played with a deader ball team than our preÂsent-day greats. Therefore Cobb lias 'a right, to judge a Williams, or a DiMaggio, since he still holds a. record . they canât match. And

NEW YORK, N. Y. â ConÂnie Mack once remarked that pitching was 85 per cent of baseball.
We never have understood just how the venerable retired sage of the Athletics arrived at that figure, He could be correct but we have a hunch that sheer power surely rates more than 15 per cent.
Surely nobody oould maintain â that pitching has been 85 per cent of the Dodgersâ success. They have been doing fairly well behind pitchÂing that has been almost as poor ns thĂ© pirates have been getting, but they manage to win on sheer power.
The D.'dgbr attack has been nothÂing short ot terrific and if their pitching clicks as it should . they âąmight make a runaway of tlie NaÂtional League race.
With Cal Abrams and Jacklr Robinson hitting in the .400 class and several others ranging away, over .300, and Gil Hodges making serious gestures toward leading tlie league In homers, the team has been able to discount some very poor pitching.When the season began the

As a student nurse, I know how busy one can get and that one ofÂten must work under far from ideal conditions, but there can be no valid excuse for the kind of laxness- and carelessness I saw there. The stuÂdents do not even know â or fail to put into practice that knowledge â how to make a bed perfectly in lhe-correst hospital manner which was designed for the comfort of the patient and the efficiency of the nurse.

At this time of year, high school students are generally considering whether or not â they should go to college. Also, they want to choose the best college for them, if they should decide to attend. These are indeed important decisions and should therefore be made very juÂdiciously.
Now. two co-workers of mine were discussing these questions conÂcerning their own young ones. The first, and the younger of the two, said that he would not encourage his boy to go to Southwestern as he. had. I asked him why not. He replied that mainly the liberal arts courses were about all they taught
and industryIn answering him. I said that I
thought (and I do so in spite of the fact that I,. myself took -electrical engineering) that .the objections raised by him were in reality adÂvantages â and dot disadvantages as he claimed. "Of course I admit,â I continued, "that the apparent temporary advantage is,., seemingly, with the boys who have had speÂcialized training; and yet; that is very questionable when viewed-obÂjectively and from actual occurrenÂces. Now. even if the immediate advantage is with the man trainÂed in more specialized courses, as you claim, the present gain is not enough to compensate for the inÂherent risks of a normal run of life. The boy or. girl trained in a libera! arts college has broad basic training and can. as a consequence,, grow and develop in many areas of life. Such students have, accordingÂly.. more avenues open to them than does the one with a more specialÂized training. Then too, the liberal arts trained man has what could be called a "timeâ advantage. By that I mean that the country will not always be in a state, of emergÂency such as it is now. Peace time is likely to return. With it will Come different needs. For then the liberal arts students are just as well preÂpared as they are for emergency ones. Such is not the case witli your more specialized man. Movie-actors and engineers, for example, were in exceedingly bad shape during the past depression. The records verify that. So, looking at it all around. I believe that the over all advantage
To be of use in the world is the only way to be happy. And your light, no matter how small it may seem to you, can brighten bit of darkness if you will shine where you are. â
A man who lived in a lighthouse, took a. small candle one evening lighted it and then started up some winding stairs. The little candle inÂquired "Where are we going?â "Oh, way up highâ was the man's reply.
"But what do you plan to â do there?â continued the little candle
"I am going to show the ships out at sea where the harbor is.â reÂsponded the man. "We are right here at the entrance of the harbor and. even now some ships may .be looking for' our light."
âBut" protested the candle "No ship could ever see my little light.â
"Your light is small but just keep it burning brightly and leave the rest to me.â
When he finally reached the top of the lighthouse, the man took this
gift. You probably would feel some- i what like Alice In Wonderland, as 1 I did. Sure. I'll tell you where â its < no secret. Itâs to a Dairy Plant. A combination milk and ice cream [ plant. âąÂ»
That huge shiny tank you see i holds about 3000 gallons of milk, It i is. unloadedd through sterile pipes 1 arid it usually takes two hours to â empty one. -j
You are entering the. receiving > room; cans of cool milk, are unload- I ed here.. Each can of milk is in- i spected, weighed, and samples sent I to the laboratory to be tested. No- i tice the milk being weighed in a ' receiving vat. Arenât the scales 1 large? . ,
Thatâs a can ..washer slightly i above it. It washes, sterilizes, and dries sixteen cans a minute. The i emptied cans move back automatic cally by machines and are loaded i and returned to the dairy farm.
The milk moves through the plant in sterile pipes.. From the receiving vat it is pumped through a cooler into a huge storage tank. These stainless steel or glass lined tanks hold milk at a temperature of 34° to 40°.
From the temporary storage tanks the cool milk flows to the pasteuÂrizer, passing through clorifiers or filters. You know it by the therÂmometer.
I Pasteurization is the most.importÂant step in making, fresh milk for
i us to drink. The flavor and food ' value remain relatively unchanged. ; The process of pasteurization is named for a famous French scienÂtist, Louis Pasteur. Here the milk is heated to a temperature which kills any harmful bacteria if there are any. In - this short time, high temperature method, the .milk is heated to 160°F for 15 seconds and comes out cooled to about 35°F.
I Cold milk chills the hot milk flow- 1 ing from the pasteurizer and the hot milk heats the cold milk on its way to the pasteurizer. It takes onÂly around-two minutes to pasteuÂrize milk.
The next machine is a homogeniÂzer. It heaps up the butterfat in. milk into tiny particles and scatters them evenly throughout the milk Each drop of homogenized milk has the same creamy flavor. The cream doesnât rise to the top and cannot be removed. You see, t|ie milk to be homogenized is pumped through the homogenizer under a pressure of about 2000 to 3.000 pound pressure or force. This pressure forces the milk through tiny openÂings in the machine.
The vitamin D milk is pasteurizÂed milk to which a vitamin D conÂcentrate is added. Do you know that milk is the only food approved by the American Medical AssociaÂtion for fortification with Vitamin D?
Letâs go where the bottles are washed. Tilts is the bottle washer. It soaks, scrubs, rinses, sterilized, and cools each bottle in 30-35 minÂutes. It takes at least 12 in the modÂem machine.

.It is a safe bet that none of us. has too much and that most of us donât have enough of this kind of protection all of/us need. - â â â "- ' Whatever is necessary in the way of life, health or
sickness and accident insurance can be bought from Negro insurance companies at competitive premiums.
And Negro insurance companies do far more for us than merely afford assistance in time of sickness and death. Quite obviously, they employ literally hundreds of men and wdriien who couldnât get white collar jobs elsewhere.
More than that, our insurance companies play another aild very important role as lender to home buyers and business institutions. Things being what they are in this still very imperfect world, Negroes often have difficulty in securing proper real estate loans because of racial attitudes, j Thatâs where the Negro insurance company steps in. The
executives know that men and women of their own race are good credit risks and they extend the proper credit within the limits permissible under state laws.
The dollar that you invest in a policy issued by a Negro insurance company carries a triple load: it brings you proper protection, it affords employment for your close friends and relatives and it ultimately winds up helping you, or vour neighbor, get the kind of loan youâre entitled to when youâre in the market for a home.

SCRIPTURAL PASSAGES GIVE DEEP SATISFACTION
In these turbulent times frustraÂtion is common, despair prevalent â and-the-falth-ot-our-Jathers-almost. forgotten.
Distressing effects of the course of today's events â the Korean conflict, political controversies, the revelations qf tile Crime InvestigatÂing Committee', and international disputes â need to be counteracted by spiritual readings to keep us forÂtified and comforted. No other source of literature is as satisfying as the scriptures. Psychiatrists preÂscribe certain passages for varying mental ills. When the* body, mind or soul is sick- there is one that just suits the_condition..Dr. Norman Vincent Peale advocates reciting them aloud and relates a personal experience whereby this experiment worked like magic.
Certain passages from Isaiah are especially applicable to our troubled times. The following verses remind us of the profound and infallible nature of God:

is with students taking such coursÂes as Southwestern offers.â The other man, about my age and with a son already enrolled in SouthÂwestern, said that he had been very much concerned with the problem himself and had naturally given it considerable thought. He said; finally. âI tell you what I believe, Washington is right.â
That does not, of course, necesÂsarily mean that I am right. â Still, it does indicate that what I said must have been plausible. OrdinarÂily, I do not jump into their disÂcussions too readily. But, I have taught so .long, taken so many courses in education â (including counseling) and have pondered this question of education so much that it is hard for me to keep quiet when It comes up.
Last year about this time, I put some of my views on education and the choice of a college in this colÂumn. One mother called me over the telephone and thanked me for having written as I did. She said that it. helped her with her son. Also, another told me'that she had had a hard time convincing her daughter to willingly decide to go to LeMoyne until my article apÂpeared. Then, she inferred, her task was much easier. , .
Such made me feel very good and consider myself well rewarded.
Feeling, therefore, that others may be having difficulties this year along the same line. I' decided to narrate the above discussion which took place at the Memphis TermiÂnal. What I told those men about liberal arts courses at Southwestern apply equally well to those same courses at LeMoyne. LeMoyne is (like Southwestern) a small, local, but first class liberal arts college. In other words, I agree with the folÂlowing paragraph from "Words from i Washington Highâ by Vernette I Wright and Herman Hennings in i the Memphis WORLD. It is: . I
"Last week., President Price, the 1 Prexy of LeMoyne College, visited our school and emphasized the imÂportance of going to college and choosing the right college for the courses you wish to study. As a LiÂberal Arts school, he recommended LeMoyne as tops.â
Another interesting aspect of this is one of attitude. What the above young man considered is too limitÂed or circumscribed. One should.be so trained that he can be flexible and versatile enough to cope with any reasonable conditions in both peace and war. For that reason, Theodore Roosevelt advised his sons to go to a liberal arts school rather than to the military academy such as the one at West Ppint. Even so. his sons did well in the realm of war itself. Thus, one should be so educated, I believe, as to be able to face courageously any likely cirÂcumstance; for âlife is progress, and not a station.â
