Some lime ago, the Detroit
Health Council was considering the
health needs OF minority groups

was created 10 study those OF the
Negro population A QUESTIONABLE
Was sent out 10 the members OF
The Detroit Medical Society IA Ne

The Subcommittee generalized that
Negro doctors as a group here

programs. and the services OF the
District Nursing Association be ex-

scnce is any reference TO present

implies that the initiative for fur
ther hospital facilities should come
from the Negro medical group,
whereas the problem OF more ia

clearly community responsibility.
While the proposed hospital is
supposed 20 have an interracial

out that prospective white patients

doctors are TO be trained as pro-

that special facilities be made

Reverend White also said, The
doctors say they cannot get ex-

The aid OF the law enforcement
agencies OF Wayne County was
sought To prevent threatened vio-
lencc by irste whites who do not
want their children attending the
same school as Negro children.
Mrs Martin, addressing the group,
related that al a stormy school
board meeting. some of the white
residents OF the area, mostly the
new Immigrants. were asking that
a separate school be set up for
either their children or the Ne
groes. They accused the school
board, when II refused 10 accede
10 their request, Of catering 10 the
ringers"
Mrs, Martin stated that the new
principal OF Corey school. Miss
Fangborn, also told the petitioners
that she was placed in charge OF
the school 10 teach all children and
treat them all alike.
At the school board meeting Mrs.
Martin arose and challenged the Pc
titioners. stating that their posi-
ton was undemocratic. She drew
the applause OF the school board
members by telling OF her son.
Willie Williams, in the armed
forces overseas, fighting for dem
ocracy.
Reviewing the background Of the
community, Coleman dec Jared that
Negroes have been in the area since
1921. During that time they have
built homes and striven TO build
fine community against great
odds. One Of the ODDS is lack OF
facilities.
Some OF the Negro children have
TO travel four and half miles TO
school. Requests for bus trans
portation have been denied by the
board OF education il was reported.
Mr. Current explained that ac-
cording 10 Michigan law, it is il
legal for any school board TO set
up separate schools. The law is
explicit" stated Mr.. Current. that
all persons. residents Of any town
ship school district and five years
Of age. shall have an equal right
TO attend any school therein, and
no separate school or department
shall be kept for any person on
account Of race or color"
The NAACP wired Wayne Coun-
~ Sheriff, Andrew Baird, stating
III has come TO our attention that
certain residents OF the Romulus
Township school district whose
children attend Corey school. have
threatened 10 cause trouble be-
tween Negro residents and have
threatened violence due to con-
troverSy over erection Of a separate
school. Accordingly we advise you
of this condition and request that
necessary measures be taken to
insure maintenance OF the peace"
The NAACP has also asked the
Dearborn Council OF. Social Agen-
cies, the YMCA and the YWCA to
investigate the possibility OF pro-
viding community recreational IA
cilities which are vitality needed in
the area.
Efforts are being made to pro-
vide bus transportation. Coleman
advised the group TO oppose another
school building in preference TO
charging the existing school.

Detroit Would Dominate
The committee urged the voters
TO keep in mind that the City Of
Detroit will become the dominant
unit in the county and all Of the
other smaller units will be ignored
In statement prepared for the
press. the Committee charged that
the Home Rule Amendment would
"nullify the State Constitution in
Wayne County and withdraw its
protection from our citizens and
units of local government" This
viewpoint is substantiated in the
fact that the amendment provides.
Notwithstanding any other pro-
vision OF this Constitution the gov
eminent OF Wayne County may be
organized under a charter which
shall provide for" This statement
in itself is so broad that many of
the "inalienable rights could be
disregarded
II is further pointed out that the
council OF 81 members will be
composed OF - members chosen at
large from Detroit.
This will give Detroit 2-3 OF the
membership on the council.
The committee further charges
that the foundation OF the two
party system will be destroyed in
that the amendment makes manda-
tory that = there be non-partisan
elections Of charter commissioners
and county officials. No choice in
the matter is left TO the people OF
the county.

officials. including prosecuting at

governing body lnasmuch as the
prosecuting attorney would be OBJ

governing body, the possibility Of
checking on him would be slight.

Bradley Mittmerl Exhibit Talent At Officers Smoker

The Bradley Field Boxing team travelled to the Kimball Hotel in Springfield, Mass. recently where the Ordnance Officers of Spring field, held a smoker. A program in which various sporting events took place was presented featuring Jui Jitsu, shown by the Hartford police, fencing, wrestling, and box ing. The Amateurs from Hartford and Catholic Youth Organization who appeared on one of Bradley Fields programs, were also pres ent to help the Bradley mittmen put on their part of the show.
 The boxers once again covered themselves with glory by providing action throughout the bouts and when the curtain came down to end hostilities for the evening, all the Officers joined in praise of the boxers.
 The fighters fought six no-de- cision bouts and those who took part were Art Saulsgiver and James, Washington, both of Brad ley Field, who stole the show with slugging match in which gloves were thrown at each other from beginning to end. In other bouts, Beau Jack Daniels, Bradley Field, boxed Laure, Hartford amateur and Johnny Ireland fought Bob Quinn, both Hartford amateurs. In the first three bouts the youngsters from the CYO of Hartford went at it in their usual crowd pleasing style.
 ,Brigadier General Drury, who was a guest at the show, was one of the officials along with It. F1inch of Springfield Ordnance. It. Mallach, Asst. Physical Training Officer at Bradley Field was the announcer with Cpl. Phil Caroselli as referee. Pvt. Al Provost, coach of the Bradley boxers and Joe Sisti, Manager of the Hartford fighters, handled the boxers in their corners.

A large turnout was present at the gym last Monday evening for the initial basketball practice of the season and from all indications it looks like Bradley Field will be represented by another strong ag- gregation.
 Last year the fighters enjoyed considerable success in piling up one of the best won and lost rec ords in the East and wound up the season by winning the Class B First Service Command Tourna- ment held in Boston,
 Some of the holdovers from last years team are Capt. D. B. John son, former Bowling Green College and Ohio State basketball star who was one of the leading scorers on the team; John Gutkowsh, Manhattan College luminary, a bulwark on defense and offense; John Locicero, who troubled the opposition with his speed and shiftiness and Reese Harrington, a late conner in the season, who ar rived in time to further strengthen the team for the First Service Command Tournament. The pres ent crop has showed so much promise that even these men will

 Capt. Johnson, so far, has been pleased with the turnout, but will welcome additional talent and urges all players with previous basketball experience to. get in touch with the Physical Training Department. A strong schedule is being completed with some of the outstanding college and service teams in the New England States Among the teams that are on. the schedule are, Yale University, Connecticut University Mitchell Field AAB, which rates among the best in the country, Brown Uni- versity, New London Sub Base, Quonset Naval Air Station, Camp Edwards of Massachusetts, win ners of last years Class A First Service Command Tournament, Camp Endicott of Providence and Fort Dix of New Jersey. These are only few Of the teams that com pile the strongest schedule yet to, face a Bradley Field Team. y ..,.,,

Hardy and Kiely Tie; Each Pick 13 Winners In Football Contest

Last weeks football contest burst an old myth about lightning not striking in the same place twice as Sgt. Len Hardy of Sec tion G once again tied with Sgt. Jim Kiely, aggressive Financier, for first place. Both three-stripers knocked Old Man Upset for a goal as they picked thirteen out of fif- teen to outstrip the field. Neither foresaw the Missouri Oklahoma 21-21 tie which no entry picked. Sgt. Kiely was stymied by Ar kansas defeat of Rice while Sgt. Hardy had a hunch that Kansas would take the measure of Kansas State.
 . Sgt. Bill Greenebaum, photogra- pher de luxe, sent his first entry in and nudged the old pigskin for an 800 average, picking twelve out of fifteen. If he can do it anybody can. It's easy. All that is required is a silver coin (Ed. note: Surely someone must have at least a dime left.)

 Perry, who was following the game with button-eyed intensity, watched the Washington pitcher walk to the sidelines.

Sgt. Joe Louis still has his punch. He knocked out Johnny Denson, of Indianapolis, in 1:30 of the second round of q scheduled 3-round exhibition in Detroit. It was the champs first real fight in 3 years. Emil Leonard, Wash ington pitcher, claims he was of fered 5000 by an unknown gam bier to lose the final game of the season to Detroit. Leonard won it, 4 to 1. Had he lost, Detroit would have tied St. Louis for the flag. Capt Hank Greenberg, home from China, says he doesn't know how long the war will last.

This is true not only for ulcer

that conscientious and rigorous

Peptic Ulcer Treatment
There is no better example of
the success Of regard for medical
treatment than that used in peptic
ulcer. It is a condition that in at
least IS per cent OF cases responds
beautifully to a careful following
out OF medication and diet. But the
curse must be followed for about
year. ard in a certain percentage
even then occurrences are likely to
happen at any time during the
lext five to ten years. But the final
result is complete cure. And the al
tentative may be some very serl-
Gus complications.
These complications which are
bleeding and perforation, occur, it
is true, in only Is per cent Of cases.
But no doctor is wise enough to be
able to tell which individual pa
tient is going to fall into that
