Treat glanced curiously at Officer

Treats eyebrows rose into amused

Officer Regan studied the toes of his

ECORSE, A CITY
By Clarence Oliver

In our city hall. good govern
ment is a necessity. what makes
good government is honest. liberal
and efficient men in Office. which
is something Ecorse has not had
as a whole, in quite a few years.
Ecorse has failed to compete with
other cities. because the men who
head our city now have failed TO
sponsor a movement along indus
trial and civic lines that tend to adj
vance our community.
Ecorse had the opportunity in the
state tax sale 10 purchase land for
parks and Fairgrounds at little
cost to the taxpayers which would
have been an asset in future years
and would have helped beautify
and improve the city. But because
this land was located on the west
side OF the track. where colored
taxpayers would reap some OF the
benefits, officials were content to
let the opportunity pass, which was
purely selfish and un-American.
Nisger road could have been Wild
encd for a through highway, at
small cost TO the taxpayers. by a
WPA project, but because Negro
property owners along visger
would have benefited. officials re-
fused TO give us the Improvements
that we are rightfully entitled 10
receive.
BE sure you register. so you can
vote at the next election which is
your right as an American citizen.
You become traitor TO your race
and your country, when you fail TO
exercise this privilege. We must
vote for better men 10 head our
city government. II Ecorse is to be-
come the city We would like for II
To become. Men must he elected
whose ambition is 10 serve all the
people. regardless OF race. creed or
color. which is the American way.

Scenic Room Mountain
To Be Recreation Area

BAKERSVILLE, N. c., April IS.
Roam Mountain, s,286-foot peak,
is to join the great outdoor pre-
serve of national parks and forests
in western North Carolina The
U. S. Forest Service has completed
plans to buy and make it a recre-
ational area.
The 2900-acre crest has long
been one of the more spectacular
spots of Mitchell County, for the
peak is a bald above the timber
line, and is completely covered in
summer by crimson rhododendron
and azaleas which, from a distance,
appear to be af1ame.
Roam Mountain, although not the
highest peak in North Carolina, is
much more impressive in its height
than some because it rises abrupt
ly from a plain and gives unham-
pered vision for miles.
Work on the recreational facili-
ties will probably be started next
year.

Tucson's S Race Track Is One
OF Worlds Most AMUSING

TUCSON, Ariz., April 26.-Its
long time between drinks on the
desert, but when there are fall and
winter rains as there were this year
in the region of Tucson, the result
is the Understanding bunch Of
plants and wild flowers in the
United States. Dudes who like to
explore are off to the canyons to
see what miracles water has done
effected a green paradise-with
sparkling streams and varieties Of
wild flowers they have never seen
before.
A good example of what can hap
pen when the desert is nourished
by water is the cultivated citrus
grove north of Tucson where besides
the 1000 citrus trees and date palms,
are olives, figs, avocados, bananas,
pomegranates, cherimoyas, mangos,
persimmons, almonds. pecans, wal
nuts. grapevines, passion fruit and
berry patches.

because it has a board grandstand

more horses it's just too baO, and
an audience of laughing Mexican
families, seasoned cowboys, town

as an amateur county fair; big time
because it has pari-mutuels, ia
nous visitors and a growing repu-
tation as one of the most enter

Laf1tte will be the scene May IL of
a pirogue race in which nearly 100
Louisiana "Cajuns" are expected to
participate.
The pirogue paddler is a tradition
ally firm figure in Louisiana history
and the race is being arranged by a
group Of New Orleans SportSmen to
determine the champion of this
primitive method of travel which is
still in vogue in many Louisiana
waterways.
For generations, the "Cajun" fam
lilies in the Louisiana Bayou country
have used the pirogue as a means
of transportation in their fishing
hunting and trapping expeditions.
Made from cypress log, the pirogue
is about l3 feet long, has a draft of
less than 2 inches and closely re-
sembles the sharp lines of needle
The race will be held at Lafitte,
one hours drive from New Orleans.
Palatial yachts, auxiliary schooners,
speedboats, comfortable shrimp lug
gers and a host of other craft will
be on hand for the race. Automo-
biles will line the road following the
course of the race. Visitors from

Indian Fishermen
Defy Superstitions
OF White Man

C.1EBEC, April 26.-Super-
stit.tus anglers who would
rather stick their fish in their
pockets or shirt fronts than
court bad luck by carrying a
large fish creel would stand
aghast, reach for their rabbits
foot tokens and avoid the very
spots in Quebec where Indian
guides carry out an ancient
custom on the banks of their
favorite streams and lakes.
The guides go further than car
ry a creel-they actually warm
the pan for the potential
catch. Frying bacon at the
waters edge before the season
opens brings the guide good
luck, according to Indian be-
lief.
