Rep. Chatham Takes Ride In Soviet Germany

BERLIN, (P) - An American Congressman has pierced Russia's iron curtain in Germany and re- turned undetected with an eye witness account of new Soviet baby tanks and jet planes.
 The adventure was reported by Rep. Thurmond Chatham D.-N e., who came to Berlin with a group of Legislators touring U. S. defense points in Europe
 Chatham in an interview de- scribed 50-mile jeep ride into the Soviet zone, which bristles with 25O,OO0 Russian troops. He visited a new airbase and an in- fantry tank compound.

World Series Opening Like A Big Carnival

PHILADELPHIA, (P)-The un- yelling of baseballs big sh w gave this city of two million a carnival atmosphere today as housewives and schoolgirls shared the unbridled enthusiasm of their male counterparts.
 From the produce merchants around early morning street fires along the riverfront to women shoppers in the suburbs the prin- cipal conversation piece was the world series.
 Philadelphians had waited l9 long years to toast pennant win ner. In the Phillies - National league opponents of the Nc w York Yankees for the world championship-they had that win ner.
 The downtown streets were feS- tooned with enough red, white and blue bunting for a couple of New Years eyes. RaucOuS hawk CTS peddled pennants and other souvenirs on every corner. Hard ly store window was without some expression of the series fe- yer.
 Hotel Hobbies were a seething mass of baseball fans-SOme for tunate enough to have series tick cts in their pockets, others wish ing they had. And in the back ground the ever-present scalpers were asking as much as $50 for pair of box seat ducats.
 Every available hotel room was spoken for with a convention of brewmasters adding to the log jam. A murder trial had to be postponed because no hotel rooms were available for the jurors.
 Many out-0f-toWn fans were forced to commute between Phil adelphia and other cities within striking distance.

Writes Biology
Book With
Different Idea

WASHINGTON t(ANP) A new
book, Biology for appreciation"
by DR.. Alfred F. Nixon has been
published by Chapman and Grimes
of Boston. This volume present
biology from a differene angle :
not as a teacher to a student, but
as a lover of the subject to a
friend.
According to the author, his
aim is to let the reader know that
science, particularly biology, is not
a cold matter-of-fact, generally
uninteresting subject. He is try
ing to demonstrate that biology is
a living topic that should play "a
leading role in every PERSONS life.
DR.. Nixon wants every person
to appreciate biology and to see
it is a dynamic subject. His book
is not one that merely presents
classroom topics or sets up advice
for teachers only. It's intention ap-
parently is to bridge the gap some
what between cold Unconditional
absolutely rational science ano
! the unscientific sense of human
or cultural values.
His new book is a result Of
more than 20 years of teaching
biology in Washington, D. c. HI
also enriches his book with thu
background of study at the Uni
versity of Chicago for his B. S
and M. S. degrees and at New
York university with other worl
at Cornell university for his Pm
D.
The author also has writer
numerous articles in professiona
journals including "School Science
and Mathematics" Science Educa
ton" "The American Biolog,
Teacher and "School and So
ciety."

C. Mcintosh, dean of the A and M
graduate school, pointed out that
his school kept no record of the
number of colored students there.
He said:
eve don't keep track of whether
a student is white or Negro. If
they're eligible to enter, they are
enrolled. We think it's better that
way for both the students and

Negroes Sue For Admittance
Into u. of Delaware
Wilmington, Del. (ANP) Charg-
ing that they were denied ad-
mission into the white University
Of Delaware because of their race,
10 Negro students asked a court
order this week to force the
school to admit them Immediately.
Their attorney, Louis Redding,
withdrew a previous motion ask
ing a $4,000 fine in damages be
paid each student. He declared in
stead:
"The right to be admitted to
the best college in the state Of
Delaware would be v~indication for
these boys
Plaintiffs in the case had been
rejected by the university on the
basis of their race. Carl w. Bush,
director of admissions, said he
assumed" they were refused on
that account. He pointed out that
the policy of the committee on
admissions is to admit Negroes
in the state, but is is not accred-
tied. Albert w. James, state at
torney general, said the school
never has applied for accredita-
(tion."
