'|NTERRAC|AL HARMONY" PROMISED


(ANP)-Citizens of this city have
expressed indignation over recent
agitation against bringing the ma
tional AAU field and track cham
pionships here in June and have
promised no embarrassment to Ne
gro athletes who participate in the
meet.
Know from coast to coast for
years for its unusual interracial
comfy, San Antonio is pointed to
as the city of the south for Ne
groes, where racial friction is nom
existent, local leaders said. Stanley
Woodward, New York Herald
Tribune sports editor was criti-
cized for labelling this city as "an
uncivilized community"
For nearly SO years, the Negro
in San Antonio has been the power
in many elections. The race has al
ways had a voice in and has been
a part of, city and community af-
fairs and activities.
Despite the customs of other
southern cities, Negro and white
athletes have completed against
each other in San Antonio for
years in baseball and basketball,
without a single instance to mar
the relationship between the two
races. There are usually more in
terracial baseball games played
each season than there are all-Ne-
gro games.
In order to keep the records
straight, and to counteract the in
famous smear campaign" now be-
ing waged by a handful of agita-
tors against San Antonio as the site
of the AAU meet, local leading
athletic and civic organizations are
planning to individually contact all
nationally-known Negro athletes,
giving them full assurance that
their stay and competitive efforts
in the Alamo City will be as pleas
ant and as much appreciated as in
any other city in the country.
Plans for their reception, accom-
modations, transportations, and en-
tertainment have been carefully
laid, and will be the best obtainable.
Railroad companies have given
assurance that there will be no
transportation problem of embar-
rassment en- route.
San Antonians find it hard to be-
lieve that Negro athletes will be in
fluenced by handful of agitators
or crack-pots, to pass up the op-
portunity to serve the cause of ra-
cial relations by boycotting the
meet.
San Antonians who have gone to
eastern schools and lived in the east
and north, avow to the fact that
there is less discrimination in San
Antonio than in many cities in the
north.

LINCOLN uni. CELEBRATES
S0TH ANNIVERSARY

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Feb.
(ANP)-Addressing a large audi
ence at the 80th anniversary
Founders day service at Lincoln
university, DR.. Homer V. Wilburn
superintendent of Provident hos.
pital, Chicago, deliberated on "Lin
coin University and it's Tasks ir
Missouri and the New World Or.
der"
Introducing his discourse with
comments on the incipiency of Lin.
coin, and marveling at it's growth
he charged with the imminence OF
a state of chronological politica
and social revolution, the greater is
the responsibility of the university
for insistence on a truly liberal ed
ucation to the extent that what
ever the choice of the student may
be = whether lawyer, scientist
teacher, farmer - he is to be
trained to be a better and more
useful citizen :. to possess and ap
preciate mental and physical health
of high ORDER"
In driving home the tasks of Lin
coin university in the new order
among other things, DR.. Wilbur
remarked that "the direct and &C.
tive health and medical care of oul
racial group must rest primarily ir
our own hands," 1t is the task OF
Lincoln to participate in the edu.
cation, direction and guidance OF
it's young man and womanhood into
this field of endeavor.
"Questions of academic, voca.
tional and professional training OF
the returning war veterans are be-
fore us; the problems of delin.
quency are of great educationa
concern; the problems of adequate
housing and living conditions are
demanding foremost consideration
of governmental agencies and must
solicit the attention of educational
Institutions" he said.
During the war there was a vast
dislocation of the country's popu.
lation and great migrations have
occurred which will not return tc
their former placements. In case
of the colored migrants, particu-
larly, this calls for industrial, social
and civic adjustments with which
the trained leadership coming out
of this institution must grapple
and be capable of giving proper di-
rection and guidance. Great num-
Der of these folk from the villages
and rural areas of the south have
come into a "new world" as it were,
and what their fate will be, depends
upon the gradual development of
these attitudes is in part of our
task.

dition to Cruz, are Forest Ar

week. Since this is not universally
done any more, it was at least as
signed to herald the departure OF
the Day of Atonement which is
called the Sabbath of Sabbaths."
According to other writer's, it sup
plies a connecting link with the
blowing on the first day of the
Month of Elul. Just as the shofar
is blown at the outset of the Month
of Elul, to commemorate the day
that Moses went up the mountain
to receive the Divine Command
ments, so it is blown at the end
of the Day of Atonement, which is
the anniversary of the day Moses
returned to his people, coming
down from the mountain with the
two Holy Tablets in his hand.
Historically, then, the blowing OF
the shofar at the conclusion OF
the Day of Atonement reminds us
of the ancient beginning of the
Jubilee year, the presentation OF
the Ten Commandments on Mount
Sinai, and the popular custom OF
heralding the entry and exit of the
Sabbath.
Mention also must be made of
the various reasons offered whose
scope is psychological rather than
historical. Many authors offer the
practical consideration that the
shofar is blown to announce
throughout the community that
the Hottest Day Of the Year, the
Day of Supreme Judgment is
ended, and that preparations are
now in order for celebrations and
festivities that accompany the first
meal after the fast in the tradi-
tional Jewish home. Many writers
regard the blowing as our sign of
victory before the tribunal of the
Almighty over the prosecuting
Satan who sought to have us con-
demned before the bar of judg-
ment. Others consider it our jub-
liant method of saying adieu to
the Holy Presence of CD (e. i.
the Shechinah) which is said to
dwell amongst his people in the
synagogue on the Day of Atone
ment and to depart soon there
after. Many regard humanity at
this point, as in the garb of the
victorious hero who returns from
battle to announce the freedom
of his tribe from the threatening
assailant. It thus signifies to us
that we have completed and are
insured for another year of life in
spite of the barriers of Destiny.
Other writer's insist that it is our
last reminder to the Divine Judge,
as he closes the books for another
year, of the sacrifice of Isaac, in
whom is embodied the sacrifice of
youth for tradition; while still
others consider it as an attempt
to confuse Satan while the stamp
of life is pressed against the led
ger of fate.
QUESTION: Why does the en-
tire congregation cry out at this
point ''Lehsnah HObOah Beyiroo-
shalyim" MAY the coming year
find us in Jerusalem!)?
ANSWER: It is interesting to
note that this exclamation is ut
tered twice a year. Once, at the
end of the Seder ceremony which
takes place in the home on Pass
over; and once at the conclusion
of the Day of Atonement in the
Synagogue. There is a dispute in
the Talmud (Tractate Rosh Hash
onah lla.) as to which season shall
bring the Redemption for Human
ity. One opinion states that it
will occur in the month of Nissan
ii. e. the month during which the

dealers association meeting at

]. w. Peay, of the Lewis-Peay
Motor company here, although no.
a member of the South Carolina
association, attended part of the
meeting. Mrs. Peay accompanied
him at the banquet and dance
Monday evening. Other local folk
at tie banquet were Mr.. and Mrs.
Ben Nesmith and Mr.. and Mrs.
S. P. Smith.
Feature speakers at the gather
ing were w. L. Mallon, president
of the national auto dealers asso-
citation; Mendell Rivers, congress
man from the Charleston district !;
John Stokes, tax expert, and the
editor of "Motor" magazine.
Mr.. Mallon painted dark pic
ture for the car situation during
the next six months, saying that
there was little hope for as many
new cars as have been put on the
market during the last half year.
Mr.. Mallon emphasized that the
dire scarcity of steel, lead and
pig iron, as well as metal for
making dies, is responsible for the
slow production today.
Much talk has been heard blam-
ing the export trade for the lack
of cars in this country. Mr.. NAL
lon pointed out that this talk is
falacious. Less than five percent
of the cars being produced are ex-
ported as compared to 20 per cent
n normal times.
Over 600 South Carolina auto
dealers attended the convention.
