Court Outlaws
Restrictive Covenants

The Supreme court decision
yesterday which ruled that restric-
tive real estate agreements which
bar Negroes from moving in many
white neighborhoods cannot be en-
forced by federal or state courts,
should have some significance to
Negroes in Dayton and it's en-
virons since the majority of real
estate in the area is covered by
covenants.
The decision was unanimous,
6 to 0, with Justice Vinson, Black
Frankfurter, Douglas, Murphy and
Burton concurring. Jackson, Reed
and Rutledge did not take part in
the case, presumably because
they lived in areas covered by the
covenant.
Negroes anxious to purchase
property in areas that happen to
be covered by covenants should
make every attempt to do so. 1t.

break the back of those who would
confine Negroes to the West Side

ment in continuing the successful
promotion by Mr.. Parsons, here
are some suggestions to follow:
Don't go to the park under the
influence of liquor to the extent
that you will be a nuisance to
others.
Don't become involved in ar
guments that will cause embar-
rassment on the fans or manage
ment.
Don't enter the parking area in
a high rate of speed endangering
the lives of patrons.
Don't damage the seats or 9TH
er property by markings of any
type.
Come out for the expressed pur-
pose of enjoying the games and
aiding in bringin our clubs to one
of the finest parks in baseball.
In many areas throughout the
nation especially in the Southern
areas, minority groups r forced
into isolated spots in ball parks

The texture of the prose in
which Faulkner tells this social

texture of velvet-and as rich.
Catching the interplay of social

Faulkner then sometimes disap-

again with long sermonizings.
Faulkner's concept of the in

(the reaction of the boy and his

ways ideal. Lucas Beauchamp,
