Students Protest

believe that our teachers have
enough to do when they teach the
full meaning and practical appli-
cation of our own country with
taxpayers money without resort
ing to using their high positions
with other isms. Few. if any, stu
dents really know enough about
their own rights and privileges
and projections, coupled with in
dividual freedoms, actually now
being enjoyed to fit them to COM
pare any invisible form of govern
ment only by word-picture handed
to them by any teacher. If that
were true more college men would
be leader in the churches, where
the Bible has been held up to
them all of their lives. They
would be able to believe that hon
esty, truth, character, self1reli-
ance and individual initiative
build real men and women. That
is what made America what she
is today and the future still is
greater.
Too many people in high places
stand upon their constitutional
rights when caught red-handed
hiding behind the protection that
constitution gives them. 1t is
reflection upon our educational
system when students protest the
actions of our great university
when the board objects to the
leadership for young Americans
within their ranks. Young minds
are in the training period and un-
able to absorb any more than one
complex governmental system at
a time. Judging from our crime
wave, very poor job is now be-
ing done as it is and with Com
munism as complicated as It is
jammed down their threats, this
writer believes that the American
people should not be forced to pay
for any such services In our
schools and colleges.

COMEBACK AT CARNEGIE HALL

Billie Holiday, Americas undi-

who plays a one night engage

Saturday, February 18th, scored
one OF the most sensational come
backs in show business history
when she appeared recently at
New York's austere Carnegie Hall.
After years retirement from
the bright lights and singing
chores. Miss Holiday came back
to New York and before the
show at Carnegie Hall was over.
had it wrapped up for her very
own again. Although she sang the
old favorites with the same deep
emotion and restrained undertones,
the Carnegie concert was some
thing of a show business land
mark. The producers had planned
to advertise and promote her in
the regular way. In February,
while she was still out of New
York, they announced her March
9th concert appearance in an
S-point line at the bottom of the
ad for another concert. There was
action at the Carnegie box-office
right away. And week before
her concert was to take place,
when only eight of these single
lines had been published the big
house was sold out. Billie went
on stage that evening with fans
thronged so thick they were act
ually seated ON the dais and Car
negie Hall took on the atmosphere
of revival meeting with her
public rocking and shouting from
all over the house.
Show business insiders say that
the time she appeared there show
business was at its lowest ebb. So
all Billie did at her first concert
in more than a year was to sell
out the house with an overflow
of 300 people seated behind her
on stage to the tune of Carnegie
Hall record.
Bumps" Blackwell's local band
will supply dance music in be-
tween Miss Holidays appearances.
She's will be on three times dur
ing the evening.
