OR DAVEY PORTRAIT

COLUMBUS, O.-More than
light years after he left office,
an official state portrait of
former Gov. Martin L. Davey is
to be painted and hung in the
state house.
The incumbent governor
Thomas j. Herbert, Repub-
hcan, has approved an order re-
leasing $50 from the executive
departments funds to pay an
artist for painting the picture.
Gov. Davey, a Democrat, died
last year. He had refused to
have a portrait painted of him
self, after he left office, con-
tending that 800 appropriated
by the state legislature for the
purpose was inadequate.

Co-Ed Enrolls In Course
For Football Coaches

ANN ARBOR, Mich. NH-Miss
Beverly Bussey set a precedent
at the University of Michigan
when she enrolled in Wall
Weber's class On fundamentals
for prospective football coaches.
Miss Bussey, who weights
about 100 pounds, said she does
not plan to play or coach foot
ball. She merely wants to be-
come sports writer and
aspires to qualify for reporting.
Football knowledge isn't h r
only aim in the sports field. The
young coed took a course on
fundamentals of baseball a t
spring and during the comi n e
winter semester plans to take a
course in basketball.

SCOOP: BOYD COLLINS, Local
So, UPWA at Superior Packing,
was made chairman of the anti
discrimination committee of the
Ramsey County CLIO Council last
week. Boyd, a trade union veteran,
helped organize Superior Packing
IL years ago said, "Be sure to
mention MIKE DEITCH in Twin
Town Labor as a top notch union
man, unafraid to fight for our
rights, for more eats and shoes in
our wage checks. He was in the
thick Of it when we first organized"
BOYD, for the past two years
presto len of the clearinghouse
Workers Joint Council, has served
on every bargaining and grievance
committee for the past ~ years.
Besides Boyd, there are five other
Negroes among the $50 workers at
Superior Packing. Says he wants
more Negroes to take an active
hand in their unions business.
Worked for Is years as the only
Negro out at Superior" Boyd said,
land it wasn't until we organized
into the CLIO that we got more jobs
for Negroes and I'll put i
straight for you; 1t was easier to
organize the $50 so-called white
workers than it was to organize
those five Negroes. Why"

An outstanding baseball game,
pairing the famed Harlem Globe
trOtters and the equally prominent
House Of David whiskered team
from Benton HarbOr, Mich, will be
presented Tuesday, June 10, at $50
p. m. at Lexington Park.
Here are, without question, the
two outstanding novelty mines of
the country, both stressing fine
playing ability and superb show
manship. The House Of David team.
eral outstanding collegians who
have only recently completed their
campus careers, is rated one Of the
returned from the service and sew
led by the famous George ("Andy")
Anderson and Doc Tally, origina-
tors Of the pepper ball game,
one Of the stunts featured by the
bearded boys, is the only white
nine now transforming the nation.
This they have been doing for
decades, with the exception Of the
war years, and their current lineup,
bOasting former major and minor
leaguers, exceptional players just
best in their history.
The Harlem Globetrotters, owned
by the same management Of the
wonder basketball team Of the same
name, was organized to carry on
the sensational record and trad
tons Of the court wizards. Like
the Globetrotters of the hardwood
floor, the baseball team has been
assembled with meticulous care and
embodies the stellar qualities that
have made it's basketball namesakes
the most popular attraction in that
sport.

During the past few months I've
been criticized by many of my
friends and readers as to why I'm
putting in my two cents in such a
dirty game like politics and etc.
-. | might that they are all wrong,
friends and all. E. What isn't poll
tics nowadays will anyone tell me ?
Our very existence today de-
ponds on politics. q. True it is dis
cOuraging at times to find the
wrong people in office and all that.
But it is the duty of every
person, man or woman to get into
this game Of politics. To know
your candidates and to vote right
is another thing. There is no
city on earth that can possibly have
perfect elected officials. =. You
know many Of 'em change after
they get into office, just like some
people change when they get a few
dollars in their pockets. The
best remedy for that is to have the
people GUST the guy who fails them
from office. You don't have to
have bad people in office. Cor
rupt officials are only that way be-
cause the voters let them get away
with 1t. Minneapolis voters

SPEAKING FOR MYSELF:
By Percy VIA

In less than a hundred hours
from now the election will be over
with. :. I'm not going to attempt
10 predict any winners as you may
have expected me TO do. Some
contests will be close and some will
be push-overs. This you may
agree with - that the best man
doesn't always win in politics. q.
Although we would like to believe
that the best man gets the votes.
-. Party Machines, a political lead
er or a boss in power too long,
crooked elections, handout jobs
doesn't exactly spell Good Govern
ment. In most cases it breeds
crooked and corrupt politics. .
However l still prefer the Ameri-
can way Of voting-for example:
Remember when Hitler received
99% Of the votes cast for him in
Austrai?l. =. What an election
that must have been!
Which reminds me of our South
ern politicians, they too would like
TO have their elections like Hitler
did. I'm rambling along and I
have 4 few more Of this n that's
I'd like to spill. The recent
murder by a lynch mob in South
Carolina and poor Willie Earle.
-. And TO think our former Sec
Rotary Of State James Byrnes spent
millions and billions Of your dollars
to help Europe reestablish itself
and worry about free elections in
Europe. e. You can probably read

shared honors with the Mayor in
