Thousands Ask
Canning Sugar
IS High Schools
Serve Public

Thousands Of residents of Ma
comb county, with the exception
of Warren and Sterling town
ships, are flocking to the va
rious high schools today to OBJ
tain their annual sugar allotment
for home canning and early
this afternoon many of the is
suing centers in the high schools
reported they had run out of
sugar issuance coupons.
Paul w. Mckee, chairman of
the Macomb County War Price
and Ration Board No. 3350-1,
stated that the staffs at the va
rious high schools would con-
tinue to take the applications
until 9 o'clock tonight and the
sugar stamps would be sent out
to the applicants as soon as the
Board receives them.
Mckee commended the eff
ficient manner in which the
school faculties and members of
the Civilian Defense Organiza-
ton were handling the heavy
flow of applicants and he said
that the facilities of the schools
were taxed to the limit.
Explaining the shortage of
coupons, the local Board chair
man stated that the amount OF
coupons allocated to the Board
was insufficient and despite eff
forts of the Board to obtain
more none were made available.

Two pairoIl1en
DIEM Crash
Passenger is
Seriously Injured

ST. CLAIR SHORES-In an
unwitnessed early-m Or n n g
crash which may have resulted
while pursuing a speeding car,
two officers of the st. Clair
Shores Police Department we're
instantly killed Sunday and a
friend riding in their radio pa

Shores officers.
Whether or not the officers
were giving Cromwell ride at
the time of the crash, or he was
accompanying them on their pa
troll rounds, is not known. His
condition. does not allow for
questioning and his recollections
of the accident at present are
vague, according to Police Chief
Harvey Champine, who with
other members of the 13-man
force was deeply shocked by the
tragedy.
CAUSE UNDETERMINED
Mystery shrouds the cause of
the accident which snuffed out
the lives Of the two popular Of

Patrolman Gordon Slower was
on duty at headquarters at 6:10

NEGROES IN GENERAL
HODGES CELEBRATION

ATLANTA, June 4 (ANP)-
Although many Negroes from
Georgia were members of Gen.
Courtney H. Hodges First army in
the European Theater of Opera
tions, including those who for the
first time in modern history fought
side by side with white Americans
Atlanta officials in arranging for
the gigantic welcome party for the
returning Georgia-born commander
chose to ignore them.
No Negro faces were seen among
the score or more officers and en-
listed men flown to Atlanta for the
celebration and no Negroes were
included in the line of march.
The Booker T. Washington high
school band was called at the last
minute to stand and play at the tail
end of the procession, but did not
march. The Atlanta Naval Air
base band, composed of Negro mu-
sicians with white conductor,
played a brief concert in the heart
of the city.
Chief Specialist Graham w.
Jackson of the navy was called up
on to perform on the piano and his
accordion at the Hotel Biltmore at
the formal reception rendered Gen.
Hodges, Thursday night.
The whole affair left a bitter
taste in the mouths of many Negro
Atlantans who knew their sons,
too, had fought with Gen. Hodges,
to achieve the victory the city cele-
brated.

The Columbia Record hailed the

Charleston News and Courier, with
an eye toward further suits de-

posal that the state abolish all pub

Said the Record: "The decision
of Federal Judge J. Waites Waring

Lately have noticed many experts using the Blackwood four five no trump convention when 1t is obviously asking for aces or kings. The ordinary way to bid today'S hand might be as follows. South, l diamond; North, 1 spade; South, 3 diamonds, North, clubs; South. { hearts (a slam try bid; North { spades; South, 6 spades; North, ' spades.
 East opens 6 diamond and the contract is defeated. If North and south get to seven diamonds, West will open Q spade and defeat them.
 If the hand is opened with 6 two.bid, and North and South are not playing the ace-showing con- vention in response to a two-bid, North will make . positive response of two spades. South now bids four no trump, which is obviously Q Blackwood bid asking partner for aces. When South receives the in. formation that his partner holds two aces, he bids five no trump asking for kings. North, with one king. bids six diamonds, and South can practically count l3 top tricks. He safely bids seven no trump, which cannot be defeated.
 The expert using the Blackwood convention to limited eMent gains its advantages without ex. periencing the disadvantages iri- Volved in using 1t too often.
