Why not drop around soon and lend an ear to these platters The Club was jammed to the rafters last Wednesday night with MEN. To copy one of the BEAMS best features, "We Pop the Cues tion"-Where were the girls?
 We were glad to see our old
 friend Ray Flynn down for 8
 visit from her Massachusetts
 hometown. Match, she had eyes
 for nobody but Joe Boulanger, It seems she is now working as
 bookkeeper. We were of the
 opinion that with race tracks
 closed the bookies" went out
 of business. We could be
 wrong.
 Joe Fox and Hal Brooks certain ly had an awful lot of exercise, didn't they. As usual, no luck.
 The C-Musicmakers were aug mented by the addition of Tony Marcopoto, licorice stickman extra ordinary. Tony's fellow funsters were all seated at their favorite table just drinking in the solid tive.
 Glad to see Dave Hagan up
 and around once again after his
 recent bout with illness at the
 Hospital. He and "Uncle Bar
 nabus" had quite a tussle at
 the pool table. Barney claimed
 that Dave swindled him. How
 about it, Dave?

HOW TO BE AN INTELLIGENT
 AMERICAN

The war has taught America at least one outstanding fact. That is, that the world has become much larger than our own backyard. We are, therefore, intimately con cerned now with other peoples and other countries, and should try to understand them in order to lay the foundation for an intelligent and lasting peace. Under the gen. eral editorship of Sumner Welles, author of ''Time for Decision, a new book has been published which will richly reward the reader. The title is "An Intelligent Americans Guide to the Peace, :" so full of in: formation that it might we'll be classed as an encyclopedia. It shows how we, the people of the United States, can live and work successfully with our neighbors throughout the globe. Sixty-one admirably clear maps from the famous base maps of the news paper "PM" show the physical formations as we'll as political and geographic boundaries of many countries. An economic analysis gives in concise form the informa- tion we need on the lands and peoples, climate, physical charac- teristics, finance, industries, export and import needs of every country and major dependent area in the world. There is no other publica- ton at this time which gives such a clear and fair all-round view of the present world.

 It's as exciting as a Hitchcock movie. This is Browns first book and will inevitably be compared with Charles Jackson's study of an alcoholic "Lost Weekend" Will such comparison be less than fair, or will it be favorable to Brain storm"? Read it and see for your self.
 What are YOU planning for Sun day? Did you know that the Base Library is open Sunday as we'll as weekdays? The hours differ, that's all-Sunday hours are from 130O- 17OO; 18OO-220O. Why not stop in :?

AN I-COULDN'T-PUT-IT-
 DOWN" FIND

DO ~
 If you like plenty of atmosphere, tantaizing chase, a slanting- eyed, green-eyed blonde, an up standing espionage hero, and many ucky Germans, Assignment Without Glory", by Marcos Spinel- Ii, is the book for you. Up to a point-and possibly beyond it. the experiences of the author of this novel bear marked resem- blance to those of his hero, Peter Costa. Marcos Spineli was born in Brazil. He came to the United States, became citizen, was drafted into the Army and assigned to a tank destroyer division. Later he was transferred to Army Intel ligence. What he did after that we are not told, but in the story Peter Costa is sent to Brazil to ferret out secret Nazi radio stations, as tough an assignment as any the Army could hand out. Danger nips at his heels throughout the story. He is involved with murder, battle and sudden death, all complicated by beautiful South American senorita. We'll make a bet that this book is headed for Hollywood. Take us up on it?
 A MIND THAT FOUND ITSELF "Brainstorm" by Carlton, Brown, presents difficulties for the review CT. Not novel exactly. Not case history, either. Technically, no doubt, it is biography. Introduced as "a true story about a friend of the author's", it goes on to become a frst-person account of a man who went mad and came out of it without the aid of psychiatry. You see Mike first as boy and young man in an introductory chapter en- titled "What Went Before", then begins his own story as of a few months before his mental crack-up until the day he finds himself standing before the many-colored temple of the New York Worlds Fair, a Messiah ready to work his first "miracle". The last part of the book deals with Mikes weeks in an observation ward and State Asylum, told internationally, some times from the perspective of the recovered patient, but usually from the sick mans point of view. It is unique exploration of the infer nal regions of the brain-an in timate history of a man gone mad.

FREE BABY CLINIC
ITO BE HELD HERE

From Stork to School Days" is
the theme of the Baby Development
Clinic which will be held the week
of March II at Adler & Childs
store. 1t is designed to help young
parents and eXpectant parents in
their responsibilities to their in
fants.
Elsie Fuchs, r. N, of Chicago,
will use a life-size doll to demon
strate how best to bathe, dress and
hold or carry newborn child. Her
lectures are practical aids to par
ents and fathers are welcomed to
the demonstrations. The lectures
will be varied in content, so that
parents will be benefited by at
tending more than one.
"Well-baby" clinics and those de-
signed to help parents, especially
duringw artime shortages of physi-
clans, are fully endorsed by the
Children's Bureau of the Depart
ment of Labor in Washington. The
clinics are regarded as great helps
to future national health. The clinic
is free to the public.

be patron of the only Negro who
wanted to establish milk route?
No wonder Brother Francis argues
as he does. He simply does not know
his man.
Nor does he know this community
if he thinks anybody is deceived by
any other of his errant arguments.
Or is this the only technique avail
able for Mac Farlane's defense.
Can no other answer be given? The
actual text of the charges has been
printed and distributed. Yet neither
Brother Francis nor any other of
Mr.. Mac Farlane's friends can meet
those charges with a direct re-
sponse. They have argued about
"people living in glass houses"
They have argued about discrimi-
nation at Roosevelt and the con-
tempt which the "Big Shots" have
against parents and students of
Dunbar. Yet not one has said that
Mr.. Mac Farlane is not guilty as
charged. No one has offered the
slightest proof of his competency as
principal or of his usefulness in the
community.
If he were really innocent, it
would be unnecessary to reflect
upon the Citizens Committee. If he
were really innocent it would not be
necessary to appeal to prejudice to
seek support. 1t must be that Broth
er Francis like all of the rest of Mr..
Mac Farlane's defenders cannot
find any argument based solely upon
his record. They avoid any discus
sion of his record as if it had the
plague. They will discuss any thing
else but Mr.. Mac Farlane's record
or the charges against him.

carried an open letter by CORE
spondent, G.. J. Francis. In the spirit
of Christian humility he voices his
concern for the peace Of the COM
munity and disclaims any aspiration
to leadership. Careful reading of
his letter indicates that he does as
pire to lead us in the direction of
continued acceptance of Mr.. Mac
Farlane as principal of Dunbar.
Further examination discloses that
he is not even as solicitious Of the
peace of the community as the in
PRODUCTION suggests.
One is somewhat dubious of this
kind of piety which prays for peace
on one hand and multiplies confu-
sion on the other. Doubtless it is
difficult for Brother Francis to ride
two horses with each going in the
opposite direction. Even he must be
aware of the incongruity of his de-
fense of Mr.. Mac Farlane at pre-
cisely the moment when he, C. j.
Francis is active as Chairman of a
civic committee to correct discrimi-
natory practices against Negroes in
industry. For strive as he may, it is
impossible for him to believe in his
work and to justify his support of
the one man who has done more than
any other to sanction discrimina-
tion against Negroes. No wonder
Brother Francis wants peace. His
own conscience must rebel against
his inconsistency.
The sincerity of Brother Francis
desire for peace may be measured by
the program for it. 1t is patent that
Brother Francis is for peace only if
citizens will allow Mr.. Mac Farlane
to continue to exploit race preju-
dice. Brother Francis is not for
peace if we want to rid ourselves of
Mac Farlane. Thus it is evident that
Brother Francis real motive is to
keep Mac Farlane as principal
rather than to maintain a quiet,
peaceful community.
The reply Of Dayton citizens is
positive and final. The retention of
Mr.. MacFarlane is too great price
to pay for peace Must we have
peace by allowing man to "sell us
down the river" with all the influ-
ence he can muster? Must we have
peace only by keeping a principal
whose record shows that he is in
competent as an administrator
Must we have peace by enduring a
'"leader" who refuses to work any
where or with anybody in the COM
munity? Must we have peace keep
ing a public servant who arrays
profit and to their hurt? Must we
Negroes against Negroes to his own
have peace by muzzling our teach
ers so that they fear to think, to
speak and to act freely?
Brother Francis has been here
only short time but he is proving
