Morris Hunting pheasants may be

car and wait while ones companions are
enjoying all the shooting in a distant

E. j. Volden, of Morris, and he pro-

with his dad and two other men, went
after some pheaSants. Finding a likely
hunting ground, Billy was instructed to
remain in the car, parked out i'm the
middle of the section, while the men
hunted along a ditch and through a
neighboring cornfield. An hour or so
later, when the men returned to the
car, Billy was gone. No great appre-
hension was felt until a search in the
immediate vicinity failed to locate him.
Approaching dusk didn't relieve their
worry. Inquiries at two farm homes
brought no clue, and the men finally
decided to drive into Donnelly, a short
distance away, to see if anyone there
had seen Billy. A lad of his description
mad been seen walking determinedly
through town, they learned, so the
group headed toward Morris. Half a
mile down the road they caught I'D with
Billy, trudging bravely homeward and
clamoring down into the ditch when

something like four miles before they
caught up with him. He didn't care for
this waiting business, he told his dad.

Los Angeles, Cali, July 8 (ANP)-
For whatever misfortunes his broth

attempts to stage mammoth benefit
shows for che NAACP, Earl Dancer
overcame when he assisted Clarence
Muse in presenting q stage show at
the Lincoln Theatre Saturday, June
%, to raise funds for the support of
ant -lynching measures supported by
the A. ISOLATION.
With a dignity and showmanship
that Californians have long since
learned to associate with Earl Dan
Ger, he opened the 4-hour performance
with a brief but pointed outline of the
work Of the NAACP, to preface the
introduction of the local branch presi-
dent, Attorney Thomas l.. Griffith,

Mr.. Griffith paid tribute to the
Artists, colored and white, who volun-

Over one thousand dollars was re-

fore the performances. There were
no expenses, all services, including
the theatre and it's crew were donat-

ScOttsbOrO Boys
Quit Death Cell

Montgomery, Ala, July 6.-An-
other brilliant S~cottsboro was eff
fected when the International Labor
Defense compelled the Kilby Prison
authorities here to remove Haywood
Patterson and Clarence Norris, two
of the Scotsboro boys, from the death
row. The boys were transferred to
jefferson County jail in Birmingham,
where the other seven Scottsboro
boys are confined.
The removal was secured after C.
B. Powell, Birmingham lawyer re-
tanned by the defense league, had OBJ
tanned a court order for the trans
fer Of Haywood Patterson. When the
LID brought pressure for the remov-
al of both Patterson and Norris from
the death cell, the court made the
transfer applicable to Norris as well.
On April /, the United States Su-
preme Court reversed tn death sent
encs against Patterson and Norris.
The decision had the effect of voiding
the indictments drawn up at Scots
boro in 1881, under which all nine
boys had been held. Despite the re-
versal of the verdict, Patterson and
Norris, who were not under sentence
and not even under Indictment, were
kept in the death cell until the LID
demanded their transfer.
Hearing Date Set.
Hearing in the juvenile court for
two of the youngest of the Scots
boro boys, Eugene Williams and Roy
Wright, has been scheduled before
Judge B. L. Malone, Of Decatur, the
first week IN July. At the same time
Judge Callahan of Decatur will hear
pleas for bail and Willie Robertson
and Glen Montgomery. Attorneys
Osmund K. Fraenkel and c. B. Pow
ell, retained by the LID, will repre-
sent all four boys.

Elder Humhrey Loses
131st Street Church

New York, NJ Y, July 6,-By
g decision of the Appellate Di-
vision Of the Supreme Court on June
20, the United Seventh Day Advent
ist Church headed by Elder J. K.
Humphrey, loses control Of the
church property on 131st street neal
Seventh avenue. The Appellate Di-
vision reversed a previous decision
conveying title to the property to
the group headed by Elder Hum
phrey.
The court held unanimously that
Mr.. Justice McCook had erred in dir
Getting q conveyance. The h e I
court sustained the Greater New
York Corporation of Seventh Day
Adventists and the Greater New
York Conference of Seventh Day Ad-
ventist contentious that they had paid
almost entirely for the 131st street
property and that the contributions
of the Harlem Church of Seventh
Day Adventist to the denomination
could not be considered in connection
with the properties in question and
that the carrying charges paid by the
congregation were to be considered
as a sort of substitution for rent.
The court further held that under
the Religious Corporation Law of
this state, the Harlem congregation
was bound by the rules Of the de-
nominational rules, the Harlem
Church of the Seventh Day Advent
ist had no right of ownership of the
church. When the congregation, I'M
der Elder Humphrey, rebelled and
seeded from the mother church it
lost its right to the use of the proper
ty by its own act and consequently
no unjust enrichment resulted to the
denomination.
Elder Humphrey has pastored the
131st street church since its incep-
ton and contends that the property
was purchased through the efforts
of his congregation.

1t is unfortunate that graduates
of various schools so often are in
elined to misunderstood, and are in
clined to gloat over past accomplish
ments and "slow down" on their act
ivities. So this is to remind them that
at graduation the real struggles and
he real accomplishments Of life lie
beyond them.
Tests Severe. Students are famil-
lar with tests. Many of them have
dreaded such as they were compelled
to meet, But the post-school life will
be full of tests. Their capabilities
their faith, their courage, and their
worth and worthiness will all be Sc
verely tested.
Opportunities. Beyond graduation
lie immense opportunities for SER
vice to humanity. The work of the
school years was but preparation for
the utilization of these opportunities.
With these they will come face to face
at every turn. The enrichment of
their own lives and their contribu-
tons to the good of others will de-
pend on use Of thee opportunities
Responsibilities. Let it be remem-
bered that these opportunities con-
note commensurate responsibilities.

R%idiculing the governments sub

speaker stated that "The simple
arithmetic Of this utopian scheme is
that with II million unemployed and
two years of experimentation by the
New Deal in subsistence homesteads
there are only 507 families placed in
to such ~homesteads. 1t is significant
that not one of these families is
Negro"
"The New Deal is planning, so it
says, a new American society,"" he
continued, "Yet its plans are so
shortsighted that it can only see for
the next fifty years Negro ghettoes,
separate and apart from white COM
munities. Although the N. A. A. c. P.
fought and won the battle against
residential segregation years ago, we
find the New Deal extending this
principle in all its plans. Even in
the North and the Midwest where
by civil rights acts segregation
against Negroes is prohibited, the
administration has extended the doc
trine Of residential segregation.
In rural-industrial communities APP
proved under the FERA in line with

In conclusion the speaker called
for "the broadcast united effort on
the part of Negroes if they "hope
even hold the little stake which is
theirs in our industrial and agricul-

too long for reforms which never
come. Now we should know reform
