 The well-known Duke" dropped in town for a three day stay at our State Theatre and packed them in. I spent a few hours back-stage visiting some old friends in the band, Sonny Greer, drummer; Johnny Hodges, Sax; Larry Brown, trombone, and a friend for the past 15 years, the Duke himself. A really swell gang. Was introduced to Irene Manning, the singer from Holly wood and Bob Eberley, former vo- calist with Jimmy Dorsey's Band. While there I saw Russell Moore, one of our leading Tenors, and his charming wife, visiting some friends, who are members of Dukes band. Russell has been do- ing a fine job as Soloist at the West Hartford Cong. Church (white) for sometime.

Name Taylor
 Head Of De11ls For BayState
BOSTON, MASS. (Speclal)

An announcement of unusual importance was made from the headquarters of the Democratic State Committee this week when Dr. Silas F. (Shag) Taylor was notified of his appointment two weeks ago to take charge of ac- tivities among colored voters of the state in the current cam paign.
 The announcement was made by John F. Cahill, veteran leader of the Party's affairs in this section.
 The appointment had been ex- pected by some leaders for some time; it was felt for the first time however, that it had been made as a result of such unani- nous agreement among other leaders of the Party as to the selection of colored appointee.
 According to MT. 'Cahill, the appointment is an acknowledg- ment of the abilities of Dr. Tay- Tor to coordinate the many di- verse factors involved in this cam ] paign and to deliver a victorious vote for the Democratic candi- i dates, and a tribute to his many years of past loyalty Che is the oldest outstanding colored Demo- crat in "a position of leadership | in Massachusetts). During these years he has been an office-ho1d- CT, member of the electoral col lege and several times executive on the State setup.

St. Louis Host To Urban League

St. Louis - On Thursday, Sep tember 26, the National Urban League opened it's Annual Confer ence for a peroid of five days at the Municipal Auditorium in St. Louis, Mo. The St. Louis Urban League headed by John T. Clark and his staff is acting as enter taining host to the conference.
 The theme this year is Attack ing oPstwar Problems in Race Re lations. MT. Guichard Paris, Di- rector of Promotion and Publicity, has been responsible for outlining the conference program and has obtained for the conference some of the most outstanding person ages in the country.
 For the first time in it's history the National Urban League is giv- ing some real serious attention to the whole field of Group Work and Community Organization. This comes out of the fact that num- Der of the Urban League branch es are actually doing a consider ably job in the field of recreation and group work. Thus more and more staff members with group work training and experience are being adde dto the various staffs.
 Up to this point this phase of the various branches programs has depended solely upon the interest an dactivity of the Executive Sec retary in charge.
 Likewise the usual intense inter est is being given to the fields of employment and housing in which the group continues to face innu- merable artificial barriers all over the country.
 There are now more than fifty Urban League branches the length and breadth of the country, run- ming as far South as Florida and New Orleans, out to the Pacific Coast and East to Boston. This year more representatives than ever before in the history of an Urban League conference are showing up here in the city for this vital conference.

Senior Fraternity Project

The Senior Fraternity, which has a
nernetual program of work among boys
who lack the advantages of more fortu-
nate youngsters, is sponsoring a arnl-
val this week at Bellamy park. The
revenue accruing to the Fraternity is
already earmarked for it's boys work.
Members will be on the grounds night
.ly.
In view of the purpose for which
the nom is to be used, large attend
ance is anticipated. The Fraternity
richly deserves public support, 3 as
throughout the twenty years of its
activities it has invariably proved its
!worthiness.
AS the "big brother" organization
growing out of the Brigade Boys Club
two decades ago it has given invaluable
service to the youngsters enrolled in
the club, not only in recreation and en-
tertainment but in training for citizen
ship. It counts on it's roster many
young men who have already made
their mark in Wilmington, just as the
Old Brigade, which has given way to
younger men, numbered in its member
ship many of the business, professional
and civic leaders of the city.
When the Senior Fraternity spon-
sors a project it may be taken for
granted that the object is to help
underprivileged youth. There is good
reason, therefore, to patronize the
carnival at Bellamy park this week.

Same Action Required

When President Truman declared
that if the railroad strike was not
ended within a specified time he would
put the Army in control and operate
the lines with any crews CAPABLE of
running trains.
This ultimatum must set the guaqe
st bituminous coal mines as well, where
the workers are striking against the
government. The Navy is in charge.
Let it take over, particularly as the
miners union chief, John L. Lewis,
did not order the men back to the nits
when the two week truce expired.
1t is inconceivable that a presiden-
tial order should apply to one qroun
of strikers against the government and
not another. Having exhibited extra
ordinary courage in n case, it is not
to be supposed that he will weaken in
the other.
Dispatches dealing with the mine
strike situation when this was being
written indicated that Lewis left The
White House after a conference with

Stassen Gaining

A Gallup poll of republican senti-
ment toward three party candidates
for the presidential nomination show
ed IS per cent for Dewey, "a per cent
for S~tassen, and 10 per cent for Brick
er. During the year from last NAYS
poll Dewey's support shrunk from 50
per cent, Stassen's rose from Is ner
cent and Bricker remained at the same
level.
Stassen's gradual rise in republican
voter popularity might be accented as
an indication that he is on his wav To
the nomination but for the Taft
Broker control of the Republican Ma
tlonal Committee. The question that
must be answered before the national
c convention is whether Stassen's
strength among party members will
be great enough to overcome the oppo-
sltlon to him among the party's leaders.
A significant aspect of his cam
palgnlng SO far in advance of the actual
campaign is that despite his errors of
Judgment in several public addresses
ne continues to increase his popular
support percentage. If the trend con-
tinues he will assuredly leave Mr.
Dewey far behind in another year.
Another factor in his favor is that
Westbrook Pegler has taken up cudgels
for MIR. Dewey, who in all probability
would be content with a second term az
governor of New York, a job in which
he is fairly successful, and whose per
sonal attributes are every bit as grea
as Mr.. Pegler claims, but whose en-
dorsement is not likely to do Dewe,
much good. Pegler is interesting whe,
he is vitriolic, but carries little weigh
as an advocate.

LAST CHAPTER, BY Ernie
Pyle (Holt $3.50

After covering the war in Ed
rope, Ernie Pyle went to the Paci-
fic and, under the Nays wing,
visited the Marianas, took a voy-
age on a flat-top, accompanied the
Marines to invade OkinaWa and, a
year ago last month, was killed on
lie Shima.
This all too short book contains
his last dispatches and some eX-
cellent photographs, and closes
with the AP account Of the death
of the correspondent "beloTcd by
his co-Workers, G.I.'s and generals
alike"
His writing, simple and unat-
fected, reads rather like ~conversa-
ton than something worked out
on a typewriter. He defieS the
rules of even elementary COMPOSE
tlo2 courses when. II almost every
sentence, he starts out abruptly
with subject and verb and drags a
lcng predicate after them, and ne
rather repeat a word than try to
think up a new one. Yet tie e&-
travagent praise bestowed on his
writing is not exaggerated in the
least. 1t is art in the tradition Oh
Ring Lardner and Will Rogers and
so of Mark Twain, too.

BRIDGE

Americas Card Authority

The Summer National Tourna-
ment of the American Contract
Bridge League will again be held
at the Hotel st. George in Brook
lyn. N. Y, Aug. 4 to II, inclusive.
Advance entries already indicate
that it will be a record-breaking
tournament.
The unusual play on today's
hand was made by Samuel Katz.
a Life Master and chairman of the
Leagues journal and reference
book which will be issued for the
tournament.
The opening heart lead was won
in dummy with the king. AS the
10 of hearts was obviously a SIN
gleton or doubleton, Katz could
not cash the ace and try to ruff a
heart, and there was no possibility
of getting into his hand with a
diamond. West, the doubler, prob
ably held the aces of clubs and
spades.
Katz wanted to make sure that
West got in the lead, so he made
the fine play of the king of spades
from dummy. West won. and while
ne might have defeated the con-
tract at this point by a diamond
lead. his natural play was to con-
tinue with a heart.
Dummy won with the ace and
led a spade which declarer ruffed.
A club was led, West went in with
the ace and led a diamond. East

TOM STRINGER'S CALLS
THEMES
By WILLIAM T. ELLIS

When Tom Stringer, the blind
and deaf protege of Helen Keller,
was first taken to Boston for train
ing, the authorities stupidity decid-
ed that he should not be taught
anything about God, but be left
to evolve into some kind of God-con-
seriousness.
One night, in the Kindergarten
for the Blind, a teacher found Tom
kneeling beside his roommate, who
was saying his evening prayer,
and Tom was going through his
morning c%alisthenics! He sensed
that some rite was normal at bed
time; and the best he knew was
his gymnastics. The incident re-
called THE Jugger of Notre
Dame"
Who will say that Toms ignorant
worship was not real and accept
able? He gave to the Unknown the
best that he had. And the divine
Father heart surely is touched by
every cropping gesture toward him
self.
