ways good to meet Eddie. He is
cosmopolitan, giving very interest

YOUTH MOVEMENT

The Dayton Youth Movement con-
tinues it's task of securing employ
ment for young men and women
with amazing success. In fact their
progress has been phenominal.
Things are going as smoothly for
these youngsters as they would like
them. They are being betrayed and
even double crossed by their sepia
brethren. Their contacts as we said,
are bringing results and we hope
they will continue with new hope
and more fiery ambition than ever
before.
Some of the obstacles (and they
are mounting daily are that after
making contacts, here comes a guy
along who has neither carried a
picket sign nor is he member OF
the organization, and grabs off a
fob. One Of those kind who want
something for nothing Then, the
most disheartening thing of all, weak
kneed senegambians allowing some
Of the members of the Estridge gro
cery at Germantown and Adelite to
out talk them and returning their
withdrawn patronage in face of the
pickets in front of this establish
ment. People of this vicinity evil
dently don't realize that by return
ing to this grocery they are defeat
inp the most uplifting and outstand-
ing project ever attempted in our
fair city by any group, young or
old. So we implore the residents Of
this community to cooperate with
these youngsters, regardless of how
much credit has been extended or
how many have been gotten out Of
jail by the Estridges.
/ And ii is our fondest hope that the
members of the movement won't be
shaken by these various obstacles but
keep right on Saving wood as be-
fore. Gentlemen, you must realize
that you struck so quickly and with
such power that the populace isn't
fully awake and do not fully realize
what your purpose is. Also remem-
Der that all eyes of the critical pub
lie are focused upon your organiza-
ton and that you must educate them
in discrete way: you must be big

ELON GETS READY
FOR SCHOOL START

Elon College, Aug. 3.-With the
opening of the fall term only a little
over a month off, the annual prepara-
tons for the coming of students has
begun at Elon College.
Several important changes and re-
pairs have been made during the sum-
mer, including the painting of most
of the buildings on the campus and
general repair work.
However, one of the most serious
situations to confront officials when
the students really begin to arrive is
rooming space. The advance enroll
ment indicates that a new record will
be set and school authorities are al
ready making plans to place these
boarding students, according to Presi-
dent l.. E. Smith. = 'G i'-i3~
All of the space in the dormitories
was taken last year, so plans have
been made to put another building in
to operation as dormitory for boys
The Club House, a one story build
ing directly across the road from the
gymnasium, is being repaired and
painted and beds and furnishings are
being placed in the ten rooms to house
20 boys.
