Parish Street Saturday Night:
One thing that has us old timers
will have to admit is that there
has been a great deal of improve
ment in the business places up
and down Ole Avenue in lighting
decorating cleanliness, courtesy,
and service over what it used to
be in the old days And l like
despite the fact That I can set
down over my fish and beer and
throw some pleasant remember
ing about the days when | was a
boy, with dime clutched tight in
my fist on the inside of my pocket
setting in Jones' Cafe with my
eyes filling UP with smoke and my
nose filled with the scent of cat
fish, onions, Cuttings, and what
not as I waited to get a chance
to order my dimes worth of Chit
lings. which was then my regular
Saturday nights repast, and was
at a time when you got as many
Cuttings for a dime as you get
now for ninety cents. AS I think
of those days still feel a sort of
fascination as / imagine / hear

ing whether or not places are own

we were talking about as we took
on mere and more of my favorite
Saturday Night Repast. We got to
talking about the better looking
places, and some fellows said there
used to be some of Aunt Haggar's
Chillun, operating cafes and other
businesses up and down the ole
avenue that he said something to
several times about such improve
mentsthat we note here when they
were the biggest operators on the
Avenue and he said that he was
told that, "Collored Folks don't
PROSTATE to much Finery" all they
need is a place to sit down and
something to eat. Well from what

America Shows Fighting Strength In Maneuvers

NUREMBERG, Germany, (4') - Americas fighting strength was unleashed at dawn yesterday in the greatest postwar display of military power against a mythical foe from the east.

 The "aggressor army" launched an attack at daybbreak from the east with striking force of l8,OOO men bent on blowing through the first division to the Rhine River. The offensive forces are made up of U. s. constabulary.
 The maneuverS, known as "EX- ercise Harvest" were planned to simulate actual wartime condi- tions, with planes strafing the ground forces and artillery and in- fantry following through.

Channel Defeats American Girl

In The English Channel, CP)- Shirley May France, failed in a gallant attempt to swim the Eng fish Channel yesterday after bat ting her way through sWirling tides to within less than six miles of her goal-the White Cliffs of Dover.
 Robbed of all her strength by the icy water and swift currents of the channel, the Somerset, Mass. schoolgirl was dragged moaning from the water. She struggled to keep from being pull ed into the boat. In tears she pleaded for a chance to keep on.
 The end came at 4:05 pm, after she had been in the icy waters l012 hours. Observers estimated she swan more than 30 miles on a zig-zagging cource.
 "Please-please-leaVe me in" the pretty 17-year-old swimmer pleaded with her coach, Harry Boudakian.
 It is 19 miles across the English Channel but the flow of tides forces swimmers to travel a much greater distance.

attitudes assumed by the Russians
in international debates.
The Southerners are happy.
They consented to lop off their
relatively weak flanks: One. the
right to filibuster the journal, and
two. the right to filibuster a mo-
ton to take up, a bill. This right
was affirmed last week but would
not necessarily be affirmed by
subsequent Congresses.
And they immea asurably
strengthened their center by fore
closing any efforts to bring up
majority acloture and by substi-
tuting a minimum requirement
that 81 Senators must vote cloture
for the existing rule under which
a small number might 50 vote.
Rarely Caught Mapping.
Significantly. no one in the
Southern caucus fought this solu-
ton. They weighed it carefully.
discussed it exhaustively. The
Southerners are rarely caught
mapping. They have always been
superior in political skill.
The fact that they accepted
the compromise when they were
winning speaks for itself. A few
say that they feared mounting
public sentiment against filibus-
tering would have meant majority
cloture one day soon. That
