Attention has recently been focused

treat patients in the various hospitals.

An applicant to Tufts Medical School

department was reported to have been
told bluntly, by the dean, eve do not

AT Boston university's school of
medicine, there are two colored stu

the second year class.
Agitation for a colored hospital
which erupts intermittingly to give
the integrationists a headache. pre-

unwarranted by two facts. The first

is believed that the Massachusetts Bat

battalions to be completely stated and
ready for drill.
Rose From Ranks
Major Alexander Davis first Joined
the Massachusetts militia in 1911, when
he enlisted with Old Company l., Sixth
Regiment. He tasted his first federal
induction on March 25, 1917 and was
honorably discharged from the service
as a sergeant on Feb. 27, 1919. He
soon joined again.
A veteran who had seen service with
the original 372nd Regiment, Davis
worked up to the lieutenant bars, serv-
ing in the first Second Separate Bat
TALON and on into the present Third
Battalion. In 1928 he became captain
OF Company |, and on Sept. II, 1886
Davis became major of the Third Bat

For the first time in recent years a
Junior Choir singing contest was heard
on Friday evening, February %, at
s 80 o'clock in st. Mark Congregational
Church. The auditorium of the church
was too small to seat the large audi
ence attending, so that many persons
had to stand. The contest was under
the auspices of Saint Mark Choir Guild
led by Mrs Marguerite Youngblood and
Mrs Irene Yates.
Junior Choirs that sang in the con-
test were: Peoples Baptist Church,
Saint Mark, Eastern Ave, Baptist
Church and Union Baptist CHURCH of
Maiden, and Ebenezer Baptist of
Boston. Ralph Coleman was master
Of ceremonies. There were three judges,
one white and two colored. The deci-
sion of the judges gave Saint Mark
Junior Choir, led by Dolan Yates, first
prize; Ebenezer Baptist Choir led by
Thelma Chase, second prize; and
Peoples Baptist, led by Gladys Perdue,
third prize. 1t was really tie between
Saint Mark, and Ebenezer Baptist, be-
cause they had the same amount of
equal points, Ebenezer also had all of
their music memorized. Each choir was
required to sing two songs of their own
choice. The program ended with the
combined choirs singing an anthem
conducted by Herman Carter, talented
young baritone of Maiden, Mass.

Davis, 80 yr. Soldier
For 80 years a soldier in the Massa-
chusetts militia, Major Alexander
Davis will historically be the first
major of color to lead a completely
race-staf'ed battalion from this state
into the U. S. Army. Our previous
indicted military unit was Old Com
pany l.; the Civil War regiments were
all stated by white officers.
The present Third Battalion consists
of four complete companies, Medical
Detachment and Band. It's officer per-
sonnet is said now to run from lieuten-
ants straight up to and including a
Lieutenant Colonel, the official an
nouncements to be made later at Fort
Dix. One of the Third Battalion Off
GERS is now Regimental major. 1t
