grafton be given to the matter of widening the street as it appears
ut this can be done with out disturbing any property rights of in
dlYiduals We must make it safe IN every respect for those who will
attend the games, and those who will visit our city for the purpose Of
sz4s'ng on business relations WlG Pine Bluff merchants.
A MAJOR PROBLEM CONNECTED WITH THE INTEREST IN
NEW STADIUM is the matter Of police patrol for traffic In this
area of segregation and jim crow, the activities which are conducted
by Negroes for their own enjoyment sometimes deny to the patrons
ne JOY which comes to them in attending affairs of their own, due
to the presence of white people who are at a disadvantage in what
ever capacity which they serve in helping carry out the entertain
mont simply because Negroes are tired of having white folks boss
I'm around, and especially SO, when they feel that their presence
could be avoided What We are trying to get over is this NEGROES
RESENT THE PRESENCE or WHITE PEOPLE IN POLICING AND
TROLLING THE AREA IN AND ABOUT THE COLLEGE COM
MuNITY. A student complains that there are enough men with
training, students at the college who could assist in relieving traffic
congestion and do whatever else is necessary to insure the protection
of property and life. There are many veterans who have served in
the Armed Forces, some with experience as Military Policemen, and
they ar available for use in helping make safe the lives and property
of patrons of football games.
MOVE ONr' GET GOINGf are commands which come from white
policemen which Negroes simply resent They are tired of such COM
mands, despite the inoffensiveness which the barker might have in
his mind. Sc, it seems to me that if segregation entertainment is to be
fully enjoyed by Negroes they should have the opportunity and privilege
Of handling their own affairs Need we again remind the authorities
that several Negroes have taken examinations for appointment to the
Pine Bluff Police Department We have never heard of any official
action taken on the examinations or the applications. So, if by some
ruse, the powers can effect the appointment of special Negro policemen
with specified duties solely in connection with policing the area in

and about the college community, it would help to strengthen and
bolster the Negroes faith in democracy. In other words, If the brain
power of Negroes is to remain content with the present conditions,
We believe that the present situation will be the beginning of a sore
stop which will not help but retard progress in the field of race re-
hdons. So the leaders in the college alumni association, the patrons
OF the games, and the political leaders of Negroes ought get busy
and work out some plan and present it to the proper authorities SO as
to give US the feeling of freedom when in attendance at our own
events. In Memphis, Negro policemen have made an astounding re-
In this heavily populated area where Negro voting strength offers
Arkansas best bargaining point, we pose the question and trust that
We shall have immediate action. The Chief of Police should give this
matter serious thought, and it is believed tht he might deputize
college students to assist in directing the traffic and thereby raise the
level of human dignity in race relations Then, Negroes will enjoy
is no telling what will happen after a game, and the presence of white
policemen at Negro functions makes Negroes mad. No white man can
understand or believe this, for only a Negro can know what it really
means to be a Negro in a community and time like this!
TRIVIA: Something is wrong at the box office! The lines were rather
slow in moving, and we ar sure that the Business Manager of the

responsibility, and a counting machine installed AND THE RAINS
CAME, and then there was the same slowness in issuing passes 10 That
the patrons might return upon running to shelter during the football
game. Something should be done about this. 1t would not do to have
ten thousand people attending a football game with the present set-up
to handle tickets, count money, and let patrons out during the half
We trust that on Saturday night, October ID, when the Lions meet

this season
By Dorothy BihImon

Those of you who enjoyed a
summer vacation are probably
now in the throes of planning your
fall housecleaning mpaig
Some of us still have vacations to
look forward to, so will postpone
the cleaning chore until later.
However, no matter into which
category you fall, we all are get
ting our clothes in condition for
the fall and winter months. A
new suit like the one pictured Will
probably be included in your
wardrobe, but don't discard last
years suit or coat just because it
has developed an unSightly shine
or loss of nap. You can have it
processed to restore the nap and
eliminate the shine for a COM
paratively small cost. This process
does more than just remove the
surface shine. 1t actually renaps
the fabric, making it look like new
and the shine cannot possibly re-
turn until the nap has worn off
again. You'll find this means
months of extra service from the
garment. 1t is effective on most
types of materials, including silks
and rayonS. The exceptions are
velvet, corduroys and rayons that
have been scared or IRON -Shined.
The process will renap flannel,
tweed, camel's hair and similar
fabrics, we are told, if the material
isn't actually worn threadbare.
1t is not supposed to injure gar
ments since no harmful chemicals
or acids are used. In fact, you
might consider that it improves
the fabric, even removing surface
scorches and fading. Dry cleaning
and pressing is also included in
the cost of the new mapping
process. The process, naturally, is
secret, but it could be magic if
our well-seasoned camel's hair
coat is any indication!

USING VEGETABLES;
FEED BAGS?

(From Mrs. C. M. R., BeltsUiIle.)
I want to add a few more sug-
gestions for Mrs. A. S., River
dale. take a few ears of corn,
2 or 3 stalks of okra, lima beans,
peas, small potatoes and several
tomatoes, bring them to the boil
ing point and seal and cook
(pintS) in pressure cooker.
This is very good in the winter
in soups.
Now will some kind reader
please give the feed bag exchange
again? I lost the one I cut out
and don't remember the address
I have several and would like
each of one kind to make some
house dresses. A suggestion from

Eggs Outgrowing
|OId-StyIe Filters

D. U. Livermore, Virginia
poultry marketing specialist, says
that the breeding for egg Size
program has resulted in eggs that
no longer fit in the standard
filters and fats.
It's the fat eggs and the extra
long eggs that are caught in the
squeeze and suffer damage in
transit.
Mr.. Livermore said figures show
there are so per cent more ia"
eggs. and 100 per cent more too
long" eggs than there were in
1917: but I'VE are still using filters
and fats designed for the smaller
eggs of 80 years ago."
