profession because:

He has had just one trouble
since he came to Seattle. He has

friends in Southwest Seattle,
but he wants to find a small

is single.
School officials said Terry
came to them with excellent

placed in Warren Ave. School
without racial considerations
because 9th grade teacher
was needed there.
Seattle already has six Negro
women teachers, as well as two
japanese teachers.

Youthful Orators
Stump Judges

Elks throughout the nation
have always been justifiably
proud of the scholarships given
annually to high school grad
yates, thru the Elks' Depart
ment of Education, headed by
w. G. Hueston of Washington,
d. G..
Throughout the yeear seven
regional oratorical contests are
held and the winners compete
for the scholarship prizes of
81, 900 awarded at the annual
convention of the order.
This years session held in
Chicago marks the 25th ami
versary of the Department of
Education and the seven reg
ional winners competed Mon
day night for the honor award
at DuSable high school, 10th
and Wabash Ave.
More than $500 persons
crowded the big auditorium to
witness the specially arranged
program which consisted of
special renditions by glee clubs
and gospel singers, individual
solos and other features.
Principal speaker of the ev-
ening was Prof. Rayford Logan,
head of the department of his
tory at Howard University. He
spoke on the human rights pro-
visions adopted by United Ma
tions.
During the course of the
address, DIR. Logan paid tribute
to the 9th and 10th Cavalry
and the oath and 25th Infantry
who won world wide acclaim
for their bravery in the Spanish
American War.
He drew a parallel between
rights granted Negroes at the
turn of the century and those
presumably enjoyed by Negroes
at the present time.
1t was brought out during
the evening by Miss Ethel Mae
Charleston, grand director of
Education, that in the past %
years the grand lodge of Elks
has granted 81 900 scholarships
to 657 boys and girls to send
them to college and UNIVERSE
ties of their choice.
Last year there were 81 stu
dentsdents receiving scholar
ship awards and Judge Hueston
commission of education, stated
that this year there will be a
total of 81 studying during the
1950-51 scholastic year.
The competing orators spoke
on several subjects with the
general theme, "The Constitu-
ton and the Negro. SO close
was the competition that the
judges, seated anonymously in
the audience, worked overtime
to decide upon the winner.
Close Decision
Members of the audience
| declared that seldom have they
heard such flights of oratory
from youthful lips and Judge
! Hueston said he would be sat
isfied no matter which one of
the two girls and five boys
was given the grand award.
Each of the youthful orators
received a scholarship prize
Of 81 900 plus a check for 800
for travel expenses. The top
winner at Mondays contest
was given $3.50 and the Elk S

trophy.
The winner of the first prize
who spoke ON the Constitution
and the Negro was William
Brown of New York City, and
was presented his check for
$50 and the grand trophy in
a special ceremony by Judge
Hueston.

Part of Story
As the 25th Division Sontin-
ued its offensive, the North
Koreans so-called People s
People s Army complained that
the American Air Force was
brutally bombing peaceful
towns and villages in the North
and South. y
What the Reds propaganda
machine failed to report was
this: North Koreans have been
hiding out in these towns in the
hope of ducking Uncle Sans
air might.
In the meantime, reports from
the front along the Naktong
River indicated that a new
American fighting unit, the
Second Infantry Division, had
opened drive on the last North
Korean bridgehead across the
river and stormed a hill near
Hyonpung to cut off 1900
enemy troops.
As a result of these develop
ments, American and South
Korean field officers now be-
lieve that the UN forces have
won the battle for Taegu. Less
than a week ago, $4,000 Red
troops had lined up within 10
miles of the important supply
base for the avowed purpose
of storming the city.
Major Mike Donovan, of
Ronceyerte, w. Va, exclaimed.

wad and is now so badly Grip
pied that it will take at least
week to reorganize."

Three Negro Players

Three Negro stars presently
being trailed by major league
scouts showed themselves to
the local gentry here last Sun
day when the team ON which
they played, the Creoles, took
doubleheader from the highly
touted Birmingham Black Bar
ons of the American League.
The Barons jumped off to a
seyen-run lead which was great
ly reduced after Don Mitchell,
Creaole outfielder, hit a grand
slam" homer. Eugene Jones,
Grays, and wanted by the bod
gers, Indians and the White
Sox, took the mound and for
the remaining six innings pit
ched a scoreless ball game.

The Creoles went on to over
come the three-run lead and
forged to the front by the sew

score of 81.
The second tilt, a five-inning
affair, looked like a Baron
victory after the latter team
scored the first tally. A home
run in the park by Pinkston,

game, and a triple and scratch
hit bagged the victory.

Church leaders, both white and
Negro, report a marked improve
ment in race relations In this
country. especially in the South.
!. The Rev. Philip M. Widenhouse,
New York, new general secretary
of the American Missionary As

improvement results from the GU

Negroes Report the Same.
Similar testimony came last
week from Negro religious lead
ers in report to the assembly
of the National Baptist Conven-
ton in Philadelphia. The conven-
ton, with 4 million members, is
one of the largest Negro church
groups in the country.
The report said it was heart

walls of injustice and inequality
crumbling daily before our eyes" F"

for years had been an association

literature and activities, and well
comes a larger fellowship with
Negro Baptists."
For some time there has been
trend on the part Of some min
isterial associations to elect Negro
pastors as their president. Church
groups also have been naming
Negroes to other important posts.

bishop recently presided over the

ference. thus setting precedent.
AS for abolishing segregation,
this process has been much slower
and no major development has oc-
Cured. However, there have been
partial steps. Southern Presby-
terians, for example, have ended
segregation among adult Negroes
and white (but not among young
people, at their assembly grounds

All you have to do is select

u. ). Court 10 Decide
How North Carolina
Treats Negro Student,
BY the Associated Pres.

DURHAM, N. c., Aug. 31.-Tes-
timony has been concluded in a
Federal Court trial here which
may decide whether or not North
Carolina is satisfying its "equa~
but separate" doctrine in the
State supported law schools.
The case opened last Monday
and the final witnesses were heard
in Middle District Court yesterday.
Judge johnson j. Hayes said de-
cision may be expected within the
next three or four weeks.
The suit was brought by four
Negro law students against off,
cials of the University of North
Carolina and the State. The Ne
groes charged that the law school
at North Carolina College for Ne
groes was inferior to that at the
university.
In the concluding testimony yes
terday, DR.. Erwin Griswold. dean
of the Harvard University Law
School. declared that it is "impos-
sible for any two schools to get the
ultimate effectiveness of teaching
as long as there is segregation"
He also said he believed there
is little doubt that the Negro law
school faculty is inferior in quail
ity and reputation to that at the
university. 1t is impossible, he as
serted, for equal educational OPP
portunity to exist in two schools
when the faculty of one is inferior
to the other.
Five defense witnesses yester-
day, including the president of
North Carolina College, were in
direct disagreement with Dr.
Griswold.
