New England bulletin., 1949-05-07

Georgianna Hallum, Stamford Correspondent for this newspaper, has informed the BULLETIN that six-member committee has been set up to consider the advisability of changing the name of the center.
 Reason advanced for this step was that there has been a feeling within the center's setup and in side and outside of the community that the present designation "fails to signify the inter-racial character of the organization" =
 Sharp issue to the attack on the center's name was expressed re- gently in the BULLETIN by the Rev. Logan Kearse, minister of the Union Baptist Church, and mem Der of the Community Center's Board.
 In a reply to Dr. Kearse's cham pionship of the center's name, he was promptly challenged to debate the issue publicly by Duckett = a challenge which has remained un- answered.
 Dr. Kearse is member of the committee which includes also Mrs. J. K. Hoyt, Jr., Adolph Peters, Mrs. Nellie Spears, Mabel Wins ley and W. A. Wood.
 Action Assured
 Assurance that some action would be taken had formerly been given the BULLETIN in replies to inquiries of two members of the organizations board of directors recently.
 In communications on the sub ject, board members Marjorie Full CT and Martin Levine, general man ager of the Mar Le Company, sub stantiated this view. Mrs. Fuller wrote:
 ''I think there is in Stamford good deal of feeling that the name of the Negro Community Center should be changed, and I am req sonably sure that it will be some day had heard before I be- came associated with the Center, that the name was temporary and that other suggestions had been made.

Dr. $. Ralph Harlow, professor of religion and social ethics at Smith College was the main speak er. He spoke on the conference theme "Signposts On The Road To Democracy" ..... = 4ss..

 In developing his first premise, Prof. Harlow stated that there can not be any real progress while the majority of people have sense ot insecurity.
 "As long as opportunities to earn 3 decent living, occupy proper housing, wear decent clothes and eat proper food are denied, we make these people easy prey for forces that challenge our democra- cy. These forces are subtle and call themselves Americaism and patrl- otism. Race, religious and color preiudices obscure the way on the pathway to democracy. Race pre- iudice is the most evil thing m the world. Prejudice is the worlds worst sin, for it results in blood. shed and makes civilization a br1ef interval between castrophe.

building and I have been told that there was at that time further dis cusslon of a change in name. hut It was felt that the extra job of pubic relations that would be re- qulred to translate from a new name to the existing organization Tn interpreting the needs to the public that was to be solicited for funds would make the campaign just that much harder.
 Appreciates Our Interest
 ... have not heard any sur- mlses as to good time for chang Ing the name, but the fact that there has been thought about it To- cally coupled with your suggestion from out of town, made, I under stand, to all the board members. It may be that matters will come to a head. I, for one, see no ob- Jectlon to changing now =. We appreciate your interest and enter prise and I, for one, would like to thank you for spreading the good word of the progress Stamford has been making"
 The IacC that LIT. Carv1n, head of the Center's Board and others have been contenp1ating the change suggested, is revealed in MT. Le- vines letter. He says:
 "The subject. which you are bringing to my attention |. is one that we have been giving consid- erable attention to in the past year or so, and Dr. Carvin, MT. Powell and myself have had several dis cussions pertaining to it, but we decided to wait until the Center was completed. Now that the Gen. ter is completed, I believe that we will discuss it at the very next meeting. Tn all probability some thing will be done =. Thank you very much for your calling this matter to my attention. wish you success in all your future endea- vors."
 Most significant of all was in- formation that the huge sign bear ing the name "Negro Community Center has been taken down since the BULLETIN campaign to ef- feet the change began.

 Four Points

Four Points 'In both of these phases democ- racy is making progress. There are four signposts along the road. First, see people and things as they are. The doctrine of human rights, implicit in the Constitution, is grad ually being regarded as more inn portant than property rights. In the, second place, determine why people are as they are. Thirdly, put ourselves in the other peoples place.
 "Prof. Harlow stated that there had been great deal of criticism of Paul Robeson. He agreed with Walter White in that Robeson does not speak for thirteen million Ne groes, but what led him to make such a statement ..-
 'Are we guilty of making it possible for him to say such things? !? Before condemning him examine the causes which led him to make such statements. Deprived of prop CT means of educating his son in this country, he turned to, a cour- try where he was allowed to live on an equal basis with other people. That country happened to be Rus sia, where there are no Jlm-Crow laws"

BY TED MEIER

NEW YORK, Oct. 12.-lR-Clay- ton Tonnemaker, rugged 240-pound Minnesota center, was selected to- day as the lineman of the week in the third Associated Press poll of the season.

 While tre Dodgers were taking their Jumps in the World Series, mighty Michigan and plenty of other powers absorbed lickings for the first time this season.

 And here it's only early Octooerl

 Four California, UCLA, Kentucky, Villanova.
 Three victories-Notre Dame, Army, Baylor, Cornell, Pittsburgh, Tulane, North Carolina, Virginia, Minnesota, Oklahoma.

SHELDON REPORTS MUSHROOM GROWTH ALONG HIGHWAY

Roa dside eating drinking spots along the Alaska Highway are "springing up like mushrooms" Rob- ert E. Sheldon observed on a recent trip to the Interior, via Haines. The greatest activities are in the Big Delta area and near Tok and Buff falo Center.
 Since the recent townsite survey of the Public Survey Office, Tok has boomed considerably, according to Sheldon. New buildings and activities make busy place of the town at the junction of the Alaska Highway and the Tck Cutoff to the Richardson and Glenn High ways.
 Sheldon, who is executive director of the Alaska Employment Security Commission, left Juneau September 9 with Hugh Wade, Alaska Di- rector of the Federal Social Secur- ity Administration, for a routine in spectien of conditions.
 Together, they talked to employ CTS and others, north along the Highway before Wade went to Val dez and Sheldon to Fairbanks.
 Besides making his inspections, Sheldon succeeded in securing new quarters in Fairbanks for a local cffice of the Territorial Employ ment Service, which is operated by the Employment Security Commis- sion.
 While away, Sheldon took annual leave for fall hunting; he enjoyed the hunt but failed to bag any game. He returned to Juneau Monday.
 Sheldon will make trip to the Westward this month, going to An chorage for the three-day Comnis- sioners' meeting which opens Octo- Der 25

 The papers, mostly from Wash ington, have paragraphs and pie lures circled. One picture showed a football player, identified in the caption as Emil Sitko of Notre Dame, grasping the arms of a player he is blocking.
 However, Frnka had no comment on the notes, the papers, the pie lures or the charges.

 ATUDDAY Y

SEATTLE, Oct. 12--lRl-The pos si1ility that sophomore fulback Hugh McElrenny may be back in harness for this Saturdays clash with Stanford cheered the Uni versity of Washington football camp today.
 The flashy, hard-running ace saw his first action yesterday since the Minnesota game as he took part in a heavy scrimmage session.
 His ankle didn't appear to bother him but he obviously was soft from the two week layoff.
 McEnenny's return would boost the Husky stock nightly, inas- much as two other first string s-quarterback Don Heinrich and halfback Rolly Kirkby-also have shaken off their hurts and will be lack in action. Fullback Hank Tiedemann still is hospialized, however, from effects of penicillin.
 Meanwhile, Athletic Director Har- vey Cassell announced there would be no change in the University's plans to take on strong intersec- tional opponents each year despite the criticism that has arisen from scheduling Notre Dame and Mime sota this year.
 The Minnesota series is booked through 1852 and Illinois will be the opponent for home and home series in 1950-51.
