Young Mon Is InsuIted
Dear Mrs. Post: 1t burns me up
to be told by a girl friend that we
must go to the movie, or out
somewhere, because her family is
not home. To me this suggests
either that they don't trust me
or she doesn't. But she says it's
not proper for her to see me alone
in the house and that it will look
cheap to the neighbors. Since
go to her house often I can't
understand such excuses, but
would like your opinion.
Answer: To see her alone on
chance occasions would be quite
all right, but as a practice it
would certainly risk criticism.

White Parents
Uphold Segregation

EAST ST LOUIS = (ANP) =
About $50 white parents, attend
ing a meeting here sponsored by
the Alta sta Improvement Assoc
citation of East st. Louis, turned
thumbs down on a proposal to
abolish race segregation in the city
schools.
This action was recorded after
tire members of the local board
of education explained to those
parents why segregation was being
ended. One of the school officials,
Warren S. Plant. told the group
that unless Negroes were per-
mitted in city schools starting Jan.
80. the city would lose 100000
in state funds-a fact which would
e it financially impractical to
continue segregation.
However, the parents, in a later
discussion, blamed the city admin
istration, real estate dealers and
the school board for allowing Me-
groes to enter city schools.

they were surprised when in

Miss Stacy.
They caught Polk just as he
was delivering narcotics to

actor spotted them first and
escaped. When they caught the

searching her, long list of

Marian Anderson
Gives Annual
Winter Concert

NEW YORK. (ANP)-Marian
Anderson, world-famous contralto
gave her annual winter concert at
Carnegie last Sunday before a
large and devoted audience.
Miss Anderson sang groups of
songs by Handel and Schubert, a
verdi aria and set by American
composers, to wit: Samuel Barber,
Samuel zimbalist, Howard Swan
son and Charles F. Griffith. Ar
by Hall Johnson, Ham,
ilton Forrest and Edward Boatner
brought up the customary rear.
The artist did her best work in
Eandel's 1.-The Trumpet Is Call
:ng", Schubert's "Auf der Bruck"
and the Verdi aria "Madre, pie
tosa Vergine" from La Forza del
destino", freed as 1t were from the
ihackles of simple lyricism, which
added so much to her popularity
1t this stage of her career. Hav-
'ng sounded the depths of success
in the formal concert. it does seem
plausible that venture by this
endeared idol in an operate role
would not only prove interesting
but refreshing.
The Accomplishments of Franz
Rupp, especially in the opening
group, were at times exquisite in
texture. And the contemporary
songs of Barber and Zim balist
were aesthetically most note
worthy.
