WAVELETS

Anything can happen, and usual- ly does, on Q fast-stepping shindig like Nat Rand the Blue Networks Blind Date" program.
 The show showed off to Q romant- 10 start when two marriages and two engagements resulted in the first two months, and has been run ming neck and neck with Cupid ever since.
 Although the series is run along strictly authentic blind date" lines, the boys not seeing the girls with whom they have had breezy tele- phone chats until they step through the door to get an eyeful of their winnings, one young soldier recently pulled fast one on the program di- rector.
 The young private amazed his glamour girl on the phone with Stor- ies about her home town, news of her family, and friends. The gal chose the soldier over the compet- ing gob just to satisfy her curiosity.
 The CT confessed later it wasn't blind date." He knew what Ma klC lOOk6Q Alkc. 1b SCClllo b4ACJ bOtAA hailed from the same small town in Michigan and had been school mates. The soldier recognized the lady's voice.
 Then there was the young sailor who kept his eyes on the front row of the studio audience while doing his telephone stunt. Following the sailors line of vision, announc- CT Jimmy Wellington saw another sailor in the front row wigwagging to his pal at the telephone Wal lington, who knows a bit about sig nals, deciphered, "do your stuff, she's terrific"
 But 1t is not only the accomplish ed service men who wins his date. Sometimes the girls prefer the less talneted lads in uniform. On being ing asked whether he was good dancer, one soldier replied, No, but I can crack my knuckles." He won the date.

Urban League
Sees Need of
RecreatiOnal
Program

In the current movement to
establish and conduct a city-wide
program OF recreation for the
city of Little Rock, the Urban
League through its executive of
fieers is planning a program to
cover the Negro community.
Long recognized as need of
the community, recreational IA
eilities for young and old, to in
clude all activities, specialized
and non-specialized, are being in
cluded in these plans. No one
can doubt the need of these IA
cilities particularly in this time.
Adequately equipped, well-locat-
ed Fairgrounds and play fields for
children and adults Is a specific
need of every community. SWIM
ming pools, tennis courts, to meet
the needs are important facilities
that are included. In the first
~a4starce, it is recognized that no
provisions are made for swimming
for Negro groups. Use of unsup-
eryised river fronts and larkes is
undesirable from the standpoint
of both health and safety. Ad
ditional tennis courts are needed
to lift the burden of the over
taxed lone court in the commu-
nifty. The provisions of these are
all a normal municipal function
and should be provided Efforts
to have them provided are now
being made by Negro and white
citizens of wide social vision who
see in the establishment of these
facilities In all communities, new
type of young man and young
woman, evolving on and into our
society. Particularly does our
community need a modern com
munity center and health clinic
with facilities for year around"
indoor recreation. Finally rec
reation in its proper form, is a
great deterrent to our currently
popular problem of Juvenile de
linqueney. The Negro and white
citizens of Little Rock and of the
state should Immediately realize
this great gap in their community
program and actively support the
present efforts to have furnished
for their use, an active, we'll
rounded year program of recre-
alton.

DefIution
 Seen Remote

Boston, May 22-(UP)-Deflation meaning a sharp drop in com- modity and stock prices-after the German war is unlikely, the United Business Service reported today.
 According to the service. excesses necessary for such a decline are lacking. Average commodity prices, 1t said. are only 5 per cent higher than two years ago. and the Dow Jones industrials are only 20 per cent high than at the time of the Pearl Harbor attack.
 There are currently two sharply opposed views on postwar movement of prices. said the service. Infla- tionlsts, 1t explained, look for the huge accumulation of buying power to create rising prices; whereas. the deflationists expect large inventor ies. declining production and unem- ployrnent to depress prices.
 No one denies that there will be a sharp contraction in production in employment and in operating in- come immediately after 0errnany's defeat" the service acknowledged Tn fact. a general let-down prob ably will be in evidence as the in- vasion progresses. To this extent there will be deflation. It is alsC true that many people will probab- ly hang on to their savings or elsg earmark them from long-rangs purchases Of a honne. for example,

Prelote Rops Modern Poqonisn1

Boston, May 9 - (UP) - The modern organism of the United States constitutes a more serious menace to religion than the open persecution of Nazi-dominated na- tions, according to Bishop Richard J. Gushing, administrator of the Boston Archcdiocese.
 "The place of God in the life of the individual is being attacked in two ways" Bishop Cushing told the Boston Elevated Garments Associa- ton yesterday. "The first is the way of the sword. The way of blood, of brutality, and of persecution. The Jewish, the non-Catholic and the Catholic religions have all suf- fered that attack on the continent of Europe today.
 But here in the United States the attack, just as violent and vi- cious, is more varied and subtle. It takes the form of modern pagan ism. Twentieth Century philoso- phies that fill our libraries and crowd our literature with immortal ity, that seek to tear God from the lift of the individual man and to replace him with the state. These philosophies attribute all things to nature. There is no moral law. There is no restraint. As a result we have a tripling of divorces in Suffolk County in the last three years. We have 500.000 abortions in the United States every year. We have ruin, total destruction, of one of every six marriages in the United States. And we have spread ing through the nation a plague of birth control clinics to disSem- mate more immortality.
