TNSKEGEE, Oct. 22.-( (ANP)
The Duke and Duchess of
Windsor are expected at Tuske-
gee this week. The famous cou-
pie have indicated their interest
in visiting the famous Negro
school. More than 90 percent Of
the population Of the Bahama
islands over which the duke is
governor are Negroes. There
are countless problems there and
the most effective educational
work being done in the islands
is that carried on by several
schools manned by Tuskegee
graduates where sorely needed
industrial training is being given.
The duke is said to desire to see
at first hand what is being ac-
complished in the training for
vocational careers at Tuskegee.
The exact time of the visit has
