help our cause materially if our
people will vote, since the popular

counts. lesM
1t was also agreed that the great
est possible aid will be sought from
the local newspaper editors in the
rural counties.
Reporting on progress in the
several counties since the last cleo
ton, delegates pointed to an in
creasing spirit of mutual under
standing and cooperation between
the election officials and the
Negroes. Instance after instance
was cited to show how interested
white citizens not only used their
influence to help the qualified
Negroes to get registered but
worked also to have them vote by
supplying automobiles to get them
to and from the polls. In two in
stances it was learned that white
people are organizing to provide
adequate bus transportation in or
der to have the Negro children
transported to the recently CONSOLE
dated schools.

Tense perimeter in vain attempts
to wreak havoc on his deadly force.
But always these patrols have been
met by advance guards who have
either killed or driven them back.
Attempts to wreak the battalion
by counter fire have failed too, for
when incoming fire starts coming
in, the unit has usually changed
positions.
And this brings to mind the bat
talion's shrewd, battle-tested COM
mander, Col. Joseph f. Buys, Rich
field, Utah. He was promoted to
full colonel on the Korean battle
front.
Said one soldier in the fire di-
rection center: "Col. Buys always
seems to sense trouble before it
gets here and we have had very
little incoming mail"
Col. Buys has spoken we'll Of his
outfit and in an interview said:
81 wish no greater pleasure than
the one I have at present COM
manding this battalion. Frankly,
believe it's the best outfit in
Korea"

the unit is Pfc. George C. Mitchell,
20, Racine, Wis, who reports en-
envy position from close up. On
many occasions he's out in front
of friendly infantry. He is a for
ward observer with a rich knowl-
edge of artillery theory.
This combination of age and
youth make the battalion what it
is, and there is no real difference.
They have pooled knowledge and
experience to fit new and higher
standards.
And, so, when that headquar-
tiers soldier made his statement he
was speaking for hundreds of
other soldiers who rely on this
Negro outfit to lend its support.
For they too, feel that it is living
legend and they place all trust in
the battalion's motto:

the late age Of 1b, say. would
have q handicap which never
could be overcome.
The latest ex-child prodigy to
turn up around here is Bill Sny-
der. a young Chicagoan who has
brought his orchestra to the Stat
Ter Embassy Room for two
week stay. At the age Of six, he
was dazzling adult audiences with
q piano technique skilled enough
that he could make guest ap-
pearance with the Cincinnati
Symphony.
Even then. his musical taste
was varied and led him into turn
ing a trick Artie Shaw and Benny
Goodman probably think they in
vented. Called upon for an en-
core at that symphony appear
ance, young Master Snyder obliged
with his rendition of Dizzy Fin
gers" at that time high on the
ragtime hit parade. Since jazz
had not yet been taken up by the
Carnegie Hall set this must have
come as something of a shock to
Cincinnati, which takes it's Sc
rious music seriously.
Mr.. Snyder can't even approach
a claim to the child prodigy
championship. though. The cham
pion, without doubt. is an ac-
tor named Glen Bevans. A story
about Mr.. Bevans has just come
along bearing this statement about
him: Born in a small town in
Ohio In 1879, Glen wasted no
time. He decided he wanted to
be, an actor and went on the
stage" That very day, apparently.
This. of course, may not be our
day for divining what press
agents mean. Also on the desk Is
a story about Actor William Ben
dix, who was not a child prodigy
but a semi-pro ballplayer and
a salesman before he went on
the stage when nearing the age
OF 30. The statement which has
us stopped is this: Although a
native Of Manhattan, he was once
