Rev. J. DOnnelly North. The young lady Is from Michigan, the state to which racism brought an unwanted notice. But her editorial which so reused the countryside and ma jority of the faculty is hardly more than a frank and christian stand or a question which has assumed na- t:cnal and crucial importance in our country.
 SPEAKS FOR THE NEGROES
 Msis Kaemmerle, the 18-year- editor, states that such objectives as having Negroes attend the same classes, belong to the same clubs, room with white fellow-students, and even marry among us" were objectives that we must look to in the future.
 But she added very sensibly that If such practices were adopted today they would result in chaos.
 They are not for today or tomor- TOW but perhaps the next day. Only Chaos such as the Southern States experienced during the Reconstruc- ticr would result if such plan were Initiated before both Negroes and others were educated for it."
 The Commonwealth says of the editorial:
 Tn general, if not in it's most extreme details, 1t was we'll founded and impassioned plea for carrying out certain unacceptable ap' plications of the Christian doctrine bf the brotherhood of man."
 The editorial jolted much of the South, but that the majirity of tht students stand with the editor is ( hopeful sign for the future.
 SOVIET TOLERANCE
 Recently when the New York Times editorially commented on thr change in the attitude of the Sovie Government toward the Orthodo5 Church in Russia, and expressed thu hope that If one form of religion can be tolerated in Russia, perhaps others will be-, the executive direc' tor of the Russian War Relief wrote to the editor objecting that he over looked the fact that other forms o4 religion have long been and still arc tolerated in the Soviet Union.

Hollywood's War
 Efforts Numerous
More Than 5000 Film Craftsman Technicians and
 Players in Armed Forces

Hollywoods contributions to the war effort have been varied and many More than nine thousand film craftsmen and technicians and players-fully quarter of all the people making pictures-are in the Armed Forces. Those who have re- mained behind have been contribut- ing endlessly of their time and ta- Tents in numerous ways toward Win- ming the war, md the motion pie ture industry itself has established number of organizations for the smooth and efficient handling of these activities: the Hollywood Vic tory Committee, the War Activities Committee, the Hollywood Canteen, the War Film Library, and the Re- search Council of the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences among them.
 Devoted to the advancement of science in film production, the Re- search Council is a branch o. the Academy. The Academy is that body which again this year will award the well-knoWn Oscars for outstanding achievement to actors and craftsmen on March 15 in fam ed Grauman's Chinese Theater.
 Since the Research Council first began working with the Army sev- eral hundred film subjects have been produced under it's sponsor ship: a program which has since been completed. Subject matter and content of these reels were var jed and included such titles as Mi litary Courtesy and Customs Of the Service, "37 Nm. Anti-Aircraft Gun Battery, "Combatting Coun- ter Intelligence, Basic Principles of Skiing, and Identification ot Army Aircraft. These titles are but a fraction of the hundreds of subjects which Hollywood film stu dios produced under Research Council direction, and other sub jects-there are from 2 to 4 differ ent titles for each subject heading include the 240 Nm. HoWitzer, Sea- coast Artillery, Anti-Aircraft Ma chine Gun Battery, Safeguarding Military Information, Army Motor Vehicles, Personal Hygiene, Signal Communication among scores of others.
 Equally important to the United States Army was the Research Council program of training tech nicians. AS result of a request from It. General T. Holcomb, Con- mandant of the United States Ma rine Corps, the Research Council also organized a training course for Marine personnel. Photographers. film editors, laboratory wrokers, film equipment maintenance men, electricians and sound experts -"e carefully trained in film studio standards of excellence.
 Another invaluable service to the Armed Forces was the designing Of special types of film production equipment, geared for battle front needs. With speed and mobility as prime factors, Research Council members designed special types Of cameras, editing machines, mobile laboratories, projectors and sound recorders.

 The even presumably implies thet if the Soviet will have one priest in the country she must be the exemplar of tolerance. It and the stupid conclusion that the suf- feTance of one priest constitutes re- ligious toleration probably reveal the thinking of the gentleman far bet. ter than was intended by his com- ment.
 NOT THE WAR
 When President Harry D. Gide- onse expelled the five Brooklyn col lege students who admitted that they took a thousand dollars to throw a basketball game, he stated
 "It is not necessary to waste more words or time on this matter. This is clearly and emphatically a case of conduct unbecoming a student ir the College"
 However words might not go tc waste in further comment.
 Ii I. Phillips touched the sore spot in his "The Sun Dial' in the New York Sun:
 ''In the present rush of mass edu- cation the individual is being for gotten. Honesty, loyalty and higt principles are lost in the effort tc rush boys in and out of schools and colleges
 TWINS IN BATTLE
 The story of the twin brother: Jack and Jim Kerbs is but one oi the deeply touching stories that have come out of the war. The twins, l! years, old were from Columbus, Ohio i graduates of St. Mary's High Schoo there, and they have two othel brothers in the service.
 They had served together in thu Army as a bazooka team. Recentl! Jack was killed in action south of St With. Here is how Jim wrote tht story to his mother:
 q am alone and lost at presen and nothing can console me excep my faith in Almighty God. I knov He will help me to do whatever i right. Through Him am joined with all of you at this time.
 You can bet that Jack wasn' any coward, Nom. Even to the las he kept his courage, love and faitl in God. Well, anyhow, Nom, W were moving up just before dawl somewhere south of St. With. .. ONE DIES
 We were forced to make fronta attack on 8 machine gun nest ill stone house. Jack and threw thre bazooka rounds in there and thel took off in the attack.
 Jack was running to my righ front and suddenly he dropped. hi tn, ground and crawled over to hin He was unconscious but I was abl to bring him around He recognize, me and smiled at me.
 We then said the Act of Contri ton, but he never finished it. Al mighty God heard his prayer an took him to a far better place thal here on earth. He suffered very lit tie, Nom, we can thank God fo that. He died quietly in my arms.

the scientific aspects of film pro- duction. Whereas actors, writers and directors, for example, are awarded Oscars for their special talents, the Research Council of the Academy votes each year on awards for scientific achievement.
 More than a year before Pearl Harbor the motion picture industry offered all of it's facilities and man. power to the United States Army in the production of training films. The offer was accepted, and the in dustry appointed the Academy's Research Council as the clearing house for this vast undertaking. And now four years later the Re- search Council can point to the Army's highest recognition for civil ian service-the United States Army Certificate of Appreciation.
 AS a result of experiences gained in the production of Army training short subjects the Academy's Coun- cil has gained new importance i'll Hollywood. Aside from it's all-im- DOTGdilU 1ullCC1Oll lo CAiC AAAoOAVNoASAA in Hollywood which has acted as the liasion between motion picture studios and the Armed Forces in the production of orientation and in- doctrination films, members of the industry through their work in the Council h&ve become increasingly aware of the vast potentialities in in non- entertainment motion pie tures Armed Forces officers have stated that these training films have been the most important phase of their respective training programs.
 Hollywood which knows that the motion picture industry can pro- duce pictures for war, now realizes more than ever before that the in- dustry can also produce pictures for ] lasting peace.

Labor Panel Meets Today

New Bedford, Mass, Feb. 27.- UP)-A labor management panel was to begin hearings today on the cases of 80 skilled workers who le- fused to leave their textile jobs and relieve critical labor short age in two tire cord plants.
 The panel, named by Regional Di- rector Arthur c. Gernes of the War Manpower Commission, was to convene this afternoon and consider the problemms through Thursday.
 Those workers whose cases were up for. consideration had protested the WINGS labor draft in an eff fort to find workers for the Fisk and Firestone plants. Thirty others had agreed to swap jobs.
 In discussing this first court con- tested labor draft in the nation, Gernes said that such action will continue wherever it might be found necessary to the war effort. :" Already, he said, labor drafting is underway in about 100 commuili- ties in an effort to shirt workers from less essential jobs to pro- duction of critically needed items.
 Labor officials contend that the workers would change voluntarily but for the fact that the work-!oad at the tire cord plants is greater than in the textile mills while oG- fering no compenSating increase in pay.
 The WING rejected proposal Nn tNrndttnn o tai of 100000 pounds of needed tire fabric yarn each week provid- ed the job-shift order was with drawn. Governor Maurice J. To- bin of Massachusetts favored this move at a conference with city and mill officials. He also sug- gested the tire plants raise insur- ance benefits and wages to the textile mill levels.

Cats, dogs and rats as well as

tularemia, commonly cal e d

generally to the cottontail during
the hunting season. The fact that
the rabbit is not the only culprit

tularemia cases which were OBJ
served In the Charity Hospital
Of Louisiana, only l76 were
traced to contacts with rabbits.
Tularemia cases have been re-
duced in Ohio to insignificant
numbers compared to former
years. The opening of the hunt

the cold weather a chance to

Keeping Sports
CIeon

The State of California Is
really against the crooks who
try to soil the fight game in
that state.
1t seems as though a short
while ago an Abe Phillips, dance
hall proprietor and petty gamh-
Ter, and Charles Kelson train
er of boxers, received Jail sem
tences and fines after being
convicted on three counts of a
conspiracy TO offer a bribe.
In sentencing the pair, the
Judge explained that he had
given them every consideration
and that a stiffer penalty could
have been meted out to them.
The judge also said that it was
a warning to other crooks and
gamblers to keep their hands
off sports i'm California.
I'VE want clean fights and we
can get them only by cleaning
out the crooks and gamblers
who prey on boxers. This is a
great sports center. In fighting,
it is especially rich in tradition,
and we cannot afford to sacri-
flee one bit of this to chiselers,"
said the Judge.

Fighters Ready For Local 12 Mitt Shows
Basketball Teams
Are Procficind

The eight teams entered In
the Local IL Basketball League
for this season are practicing
in the various high school gym
nasiums in anticipation of the
opening game at Scott High
School on Monday, January Z,
1916. Four games will be played
each Monday night, beginning
at 7 o'clock, until the end of the
season.
Bob Barker, of the Gordon
Bumper Unit, has been named
sub-director in charge of the
basketball league and he re-
ports that the teams look like
seasoned veterans in practice.
The teams are arranging scrim-
mage games against each other
before the opening game.
A schedule is being arranged
and will be completed this week.
At the end of the regular
schedule a round robin tourna-
ment will be played by the
eight teams.
All of the contests will be
played at the Scott High gym
Sasium and will be free to bas-
ketball fans on the invitation
of Richard Gosser, Region 2-B
Director, and Melvin Schultz,
Local IL President.
An All-Star team may be
picked from the players to meet
teams from Detroit, Cleveland,
and other nearby cities. 1t is
also suggested that an inter-city
league be formed of teams re-
presenting Local Unions of
UAW-CIO. A league of such
caliber would probably be the
top drawing attraction in anna
teur athletics.
