The city of Hartford was agog with amazement last week as the result of the lightning demonstra- tions on a portable typewriter giv- en by Cortez Peters, Americas speed champion.
 Sponsored by the National Type writer Company, PAT Asylum St., Peters gave a number of perform ances at the store and appeared on a wired-recorded radio Thursday over Station WCCC.
 Among the unique stunts dis played by the typing champ were reciting a poem while typing en- tirely different subject matter, demonstrating that he can type

We have often heard folks say that this is a failing peculiar to Negroes, which is not true, of course. We cannot help, however, being particularly sensitive to this tendency when it is exhibited by our people.
 We are thoroughly in sym pathy, militantly so, with the Southern Negroes who resent
 being seated in the rear of
 public carriers because of dis criminatOry municipal Ordi- nances. We are equally scorn-
 full of the tendency of Ne groes, in municipalities where
 no such bias exists, to herd
 themselves together, thus inn
 posing a vicious kind of self motivated segregation.
 We believe this is what has hap pened in Stamford.
 We felt that one of the most encouraging news stories to come across the desk last week was the BULLETINS Georgiana Hallum's account of the dedication of a com munity center for the recreation and education of citizens of that area.

 preciation that here was ma

 We were happy to learn that the affairs of that organization and of the center are conducted by an in terracial board of prominent citi- zens who are concerned that Stam- ford become a better place in which to live.

Squirrel Gets Into Guardhouse

Yordbirds Think
Bushy-ToiIed Visitor

The yardbirds in the Boiling Air
Force Base guardhouse are get
ting a lot of consolation these
days out of a visitor whom they
are pleased to identify as "squir-
rely'-or, to be blunt, just plain
nuts.
From out of the wild blue yon-
der the squirrel dropped into the
guardhouse Sunday while the
yardbirds were away attending
chapel services. He found it snug
and dry and settled down.
When the yardbirds returned
there was much merriment. Even
a squirrel, they chortled, wouldn't
be nutty enough to stay in the
guardhouse. So they played with
the bushy-tailed visitor awhile
and then offered him his freedom.
The squirrel perched on the
ledge of the barred window and
peered outside. He could see
other squirrels working like mad
gathering and burying nuts
against the winter. And he
promptly jumped back into the
guardhouse.
Just like a guy I knew in
Philly." said one of the prisoners.
He was a squirrel-so nutty he
didn't have sense enough to come
in out of the rain. His name was
Ragaboo."
So the yardbirds named their
visitor "Ragaboo," demanded that
he be booked on two counts OF

observation Wednesday, began de-
manding the return Of the gifts.
Mr.. Brennan had distributed
most of his largesse when police
called. He had put $500 down

debt and given his wife 81 1,190 and
