invited to attend.
The writer visited the newly pur-
chased home of DIR. and Mrs. De
! Norval Unthank on Knapp and e.
21st street. We did not find the
family at home but viewed the neat
bungalow and noticed the nicely
kept lawns and adjoining homes In
what appeared to be a nice middle
class neighborhood. Just why such
rumpus should be made by the
neighbors because Negro family
moved among them is more than we
can understand. We agree that the
home Is one that anyone would be
proud to possess, yet, we are re-
minded by many Negro families
living in harmony with their neigh
bors in neighborhoods of equal at
tractiveness. The fact that the WIN
! dows were broken by those who OBJ
jected to the JInthanks as neighbors
may attest that the Unthanks are
more desirable than the neighbors if
culture and refinement count in real
character attributes. We wager that
| few Negroes would show their dis
approval of neighbors by resorting
to vandalism.
