FREE NEGRO FAMILY.
by Franklin Frazier
Fisk University Press, Nashville,
T~ennessee.)

AS the name indicates this volume
is a treatise on the Free Negroes prior
to the Civil War and very thoroughly
describes, by name and reference, the
more important free Negro families
from their earliest American antece-
dents and tracing their descendants
down to the present generation
The subject is exhaustively supple
mented by maps and charts and a
very generous and complete biblio-
graph reference. The author discus
ses his subject by districts, gener-
atoms and decades.
Unlike a great many volumes on
sociological and racial statistics afThe
Free Negro Family" is replete with
many human-interest sketches on the
lives, struggles, failures and accom-
plishments Of many racial characters
and thus humanizes an otherwise dry
statistical study.
ute a few Of We individual char
acters are yet living and well-known
to Negro readers and interesting in
deed is the knowledge gained from
reading tn history Of their ancestors
and the obstacles they overcame in
establishing themselves as successful
free Negroes.
Incidentally, "The Free Negro
Family" is the first and only book I
have yet received wrapped wholly in
cellophane.

Zanzig Speaker At Chase House
 This Afternoon
National Authority Tells Young People How to Get MOst.0ut of Music-Delivers Another Address
 Tonight at Fulton Park House

Augustus Delafield Zanzlg, direc- tor of music for the National Rec- reation association, Is the guest of William D. Shea, supervisor of city recreation today, tomorrow and Friday. During his stay here Mr ZanZig will assist Waterbury groups in their efforts to make the most of musical resources In these times. His visit is part of his eastern trip during the observa- ton of National Music Week.
 His program opened this after noon at Chase Park at 3;30 o'clock at which time he met a group of young people and impressed them with the importance of music. He will repeat his program at 8 o'clock tonight at the Fulton Park House and Q o'clock at the Hamilton Park pavilion. or the Pearl Street Com munlty House. Tomorrow he will be the guest of the Lions club at it's weekly luncheon. He will also pay visits to the Waterbury Girls club on invitation of Miss Kathleen Crowley and the Y. M. C. A. and Boys club.
 "Mr Zanzlg will be glad 10 con. suit with the leaders or other per- sons representing our various musical activities among amateurs, young and old" stated Eugene Oviatt, chairman of National Music Week "He has observed !, how In . number of cities, the encouragement of music and other creative arts Is strengthening com munlty morale during the depres- sion. and his observations should he most helpful to us. He Is one of America's most distinguished authorities on community music, c former Instructor in music at Har- yard university and Smith college

and author of the volume, Music in Amercian Life,' recently pub ltshed by the Oxford University Press. To gather material for this volume, he studied the musical life of 97 representative towns and cities. With the results of that study as a basis, the association Is offering Mir Zanzig's services to the people of Waterbury. He may be reached through the park de. pertinent office.
 In his report of a recent study of musical activities in Bridgeport, Conn, Mir Zanzig pointed out that with no increase In funds spent for music more than ever before may now be accomplished through existing leadership, interest and facilities. There Is evidence" he said. that 1t Is possible to attract many people now to opportunities to see, hear. or take part in good, vitally performed art, craftsman- : ship, music. and drama, for which, If they do not grasp them now, they are not likely to have time and inclination when material prosperity returns. Thus positive oht bVSu ihoy Vut of the depression. Let there be as much money for music and other means of recreation as can possibly be spared from the relief of physical needs the morale of the people does not depend on bread alone. But let there also be greater attention than ever to ways Of evoking the Inner resource fulness of people, their powers of expression and appreciation"
 He stated further, "A true esti- mate of the resources of. q com munity would give the greatest value to those tastes, abilities. nnd activities of the people that make for full. rich living. These are our greatest undeveloped natural resources, through which the rlch- est and most4 lasting sntisfactions are to be found. With increasing leisure for millions of workers, to say nothing of the present enforced ldleness of additional millions. questions as to what is being done and what more and better might be done In schools, homes, churches, community centers, clubs and elsewhere in the community to help people to And for them. selves adequate use and develop. ment of musical resources become increasingly important"

 Judge Davis deny retrial, as is expected.
 Darrow had recovered measure ably from shock over the unex- pected verdict which found the defendants guilty of manslaughter in the fatal shooting of Joe Kaha- hawai-, suspected attacker of the naval officers young wife, Thalia Fortescue Massie.
 I'm prepared to fight to the end" Darr0w said. My clients are In good spirits and are as full of hope us am. The verdict against them wasn't justice, but we will have justice before we finish.
 What form my fight will take I don't know yet"
 An appeal, If necessary, will be filed within three weeks or a month Darrow said. In the meantime he may return to Chicago. coming to Honolulu to argue tho plea when it k called in court.
 Darrow would not comment on efforts in Washington to free the honor slayers or q movement here to urge Governor Lawrence Judd to pardon them.
 The four remained in scclusIon at Pearl Harbor navy basc, where they are held In technical custody of Capt Ward K. Wortnan, sub- marine base commander.

 Frederick Abe" Unwin of Wash ington street and Michael Ti.zser- ald of Baldwin street, employees of Edward Bergen Sons, Inc. contrac- tors. They were working with George Bergen In residence about a hundred yards north of the Plaza when they heard Mrs Ladden scream. The three men ran down Willow street and motioned to Mrs Ladden to remain where she was and not to jeopardize the lives and safety of the two children, Bernice s, and Joan 3.
 Without any hesitancy Fitzger- aid and Unwin made the dangerous climb, the former goi.ig to the top porch, while Unwin stood on the railing of the third floor. The chil- dren were lowered by Fitzgerald to Unwin and Bergen to the lower porch from where they were later taken down by hremsn when lad ders were available. Mrs Ladden haif.blinded with the smoke and half hysterical after her exper- fences remained anxiously on the top porch until the Burton street truck company arrived with longer ladders. She was then assisted to the ground and taken to the home of friends. Later In the morning she expressed her gratitude to the two young men who aided her. She did not know their names and during the excitement disappeared from the scene. They had returned quiet- ly to their work.
 Private Michael Calvin of fire headquarters was the only "cas- ualty" of the day. He was taken to the office of Fire and Police Sur geon Dr E. E. Fitzpatrick for treat ment when q spark struck him In tho eye. It was a painful. but not serious wound and he was able tQ report for duty this morning.
