WHY NOT awake!
BY Jesse Nimmons

Where are we going-forward or
backward? Can we afford to lose
all we have gained and handicap our
children of the right kind of future
which is due them? AS long as we
are Jim Crowded and segregated
there will be discrimination, and as
long as there is discrimination there
will be no democracy. When we
learn that schools are built for
places of learning, and not for
places Of employment, we will then
be seeing the right side Of life and
begin to prepare places of employ
ment. We then can feel assured we
are going places and doing things.
We cannot ever help our brothers
and sisters in the south as long as
we try to bring the things of the
south here. That is un-American.
When in Rome why not act like the
Romans Work for the Fatherhood
of God and the Brotherhood of Man,
and learn that a house divided
against itself cannot stand. United
we must stand and divided we will
fall.

inn which is owned by Robert Lussi,
an Italian.
When they walked in, a waiter
suggested that they go upstairs be-
cause "there's more room for your
party" Upstairs another waiter
gave similar excuse by claiming
there was more room downstairs.
They took the second "sugges-
ton" and returned to the restau-
rants bar for drinks. Meanwhile,
another waiter called a white men,
Der of Mr.. Lees party aside and
whispered that Negroes were not
served in the Swiss inn.
Mr.. Lockwood expressed surprise,
but Mr.. Lee, with sarcasm in his
voice, asked:
care you surprised? This is
America, my friend. We have not
been fighting this war for the same
thing as you Britishers."
Finally, they all left without pay

for Overseas

The old Montana ranch custom

Robert Black, son of Mr.. and Mrs

home Tuesday from 81 months serv-

furlough before reporting at
Charleston. S. G.
Hungry civilians haunt the army
mess lines and even carry their
search for precious and scarce food
to the garbage cans, the sergeant
reported.
Food also is something one thinks
about often in the army after a
diet Of dehydrated products, he
says. Many talk about steaks, but
the sergeant's first request when he
reached home was for a big platter
of French fried potatoes.
Sergeant Black has combat stars
for two major engagements as a
member of the air service command.
He reached North Africa soon after
the invasion there began. He went
from the CaSablanca section to
Tunisia, then across the sea to
Sardinia and Corsica. What he has
seen, he says has really made him
appreciate home.

points, SO to IS, Friday evening in
one of the closest games played this
season on the Hinsdale floor. The
local gymnasium was packed TO the
doors with fans from both Hinsdale
and SEQ and spectator interest
ran at fever pitch.
The Panthers made the first bas-
ket, which was quickly countered
by a Raider goal, and the first
quarter was nip-and-tuck, with the
score tied twice and each team then
leading in turn, ending 9 to 8 in
Saco's favor. The second quarter was
just as close and the half ended with
the Panthers the same one point
ahead, Is to II.
The taller, huskier visitors pulled
into a longer lead during the third
quarter. which ended 20 to % for
Saco.
A strong Raider rally in the fourth
quarter brought the crowd to its
feet, as Watson, Burns and Drabbs
tailed field goals to tie the score
at 1888, but Al Johnson's Saco goal
in the final seconds cinched a Pan
Their victory.
