Say Miss BIuford
Should Sue Lincoln

COLUMBIA. Mo.-(ANP)--M Miss
Lucille Bluford, managing editor of
the Kansas City Call, should have
filed suit against Lincoln university
instead of the University of Miss
ouri, attorneys for the latter insti-
tuition stated Friday in asking the
Boone county circuit court to dis
miss Bluford's suit for admission
to the university's school of jour-
naliSnl.
The Phoenix index., 1939-12-09

The university, which also asked
that 1t be awarded costs, in its
contention that Lincoln should have
been sued declared that Missouri
law provides that Lincoln offer ed
ucational opportunities for Negroes
equal to those afforded whites at
Missouri U. and failure to do so
makes Lincoln liable for court ac-
ton.

LOOK DOWN ON NEGRO


White people III Atlanta look
down upon the Negro. Perhaps this
can be explained as a hangover
frtI1 slavery. Yet there is no ex-
cuse for. it. We should remember
that you can't keep a man in a
ditch without staying down your
self'," the report continued.
The young white people revealed
in their findings that Atlanta police
courts were found to be cruel to
to Negroes. The respectable white
is assumed innocent until he is
proved guilty, but the Negro is as
stunned guilty until he is proved in-
nocent."
The report discussed the various
phases of colcred life, placing en,-
phasis on the discriminatory side.
1t cited the inequalities that exist
between colored and white people,
education, parks, playgrourrss,
health facilities and wage hours.
The report pointed out that $3,-
100000 is spent on parks for white

BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY.

On the Florida coast the marlin,
also known as the speartlsh, is
eagerly sought as game fish, and
1t is also commercially important
as a food. Many have been caught
measuring feet in length and
weighing 100 pounds. 1t is a fish
determined to hold its own against
all odds, even when it finds it has
been snagged by something that
will not let 60 and that cannot be
easily gotten rid of by all the known
tactics that have hitherto proven
successful.
The marlin resembles the sword
fish in that it has the bones of the
upper jaw and snout elongated
into what has been termed sword
or spear. But you need not con-
fuse the two fish, because they are
very unlike in the relative size and
outlines of their fins. The most out
standing difference is that the mar
Inns first dorsal fin runs fully two
thirds the length of the back from
the nape backward, and it has
ventral fins. which are lacking In
the sWordfish.
The spear6sh or marlin has tiny
scales imbedded in the skin, and

aboard the fish leaps and nose dives
and thrashes the water in such a
fashion you must watch every Sec
ond to keep far enough away from
the spear. The only way to be sure
is to take no chances, for a marlin
is powerful and may seem worn out
only to be gathering strength for
another desperate plunge, and it
may be toward you.
The marlin is a game fish that
fights to the end. To conquer this
fearless fellow be prepared to match
strength and wits with him.

Council House Is Answer
To Many Families Problems
Entertainment Provided for Children,
Keeping Them Out of Mischief

They do the best they can for the
children, but they can't provide
libraries for joey or Fairgrounds.
They can't keep Sid from running
with street gangs or be sure Rose
isn't going to cheap dance halls.
They can't pay for expensive dane
ing lessons for Jean. They can't
keep an eye on 3-yearrold Anna all
the time. They can only worry for
fear she might toddle into the path
of an automobile.
The answer to the Roths' prob
lem, as it is for hundreds of other
parents in that particular part of
Southwest Washington, lies behind
a red brick front not much differ
ent from the other red brick fronts
in that block, except for the plaque
identifying it as the Juanita K. Nye
Council House.
Inside, however, everything is
different. You can find Joey there
almost any day, poring over some
book in the library or Juggling the
encyclopedia to Z quiet .lttle room,
where he can do his home work.

with the other youngsters of the
nursery school. Mrs. Roth brings
Evening star., 1939-11-02
BY MIRIAM OTTENBERG.

The Roths own a little grocery
store in Southwest Washington.
Their home is a combined kitchen
and living room behind the store
and two bedrooms upstairs for the
parents and their five children.
Papa and Mama Roth are very
ambitious for their children. Joey,
the studious one, has already de-
cided to work his way through COL
lege. Pretty soon they'll start look
ing for husband for Rose, their
oldest girl. Then there's the baby,
Anna, and Jean, who can tap dance,
and Sid. They worry some about
Sid. They're afraid he might get
into trouble, he's so restless.
Where they live there's no library
or playground near enough for the
younger children to 60 to. Papa
Roth is busy in the store most of
the time, and his wife helps him.
They can't spend much time with
the children. There's no quiet place
In the crowded upstairs rooms to
study home work, no place for the
children to bring their friends.
Do Their Best for Children.
The Roths are an average couple.
They've worked hard all their lives.
