No, I wasn't going to keep up
my column, but after quite a bit
of persuading from the minority
that read this column, l decided
that 1 would continue writing.
First and foremost, the Loafers
gave a pretty nice dance last
Friday night. To tell the truth,
they surprised me. The band was
good and the place was packed.
Even some of the college students
put down their books to come.
Among the many there were
Mary Kate Breedlove, Matte
Shaw, Kenny Mckinney, Veda
Schine, Carmen Davis, Edgar
Pillows, Jean Durand, Al Durand,
Chuck Mccoy, Clarence McKin-
ney, vii Grssam, Bit, Stanley
Stone, Joyce Vassar, Bev. Kirk,
Charlotte Perfect, and coolies of
others. The place really jumped.
BY the way, to all the curious
people that looked in the office of
Halle that night. Yes, l did get
cali from Detroit. Guess who
from?
The University is really flooded
with kids this year Even the U.
higher ups are noticing it. really
don't think we're making that
much noise though. It's just that
they're not used to so many of
us.
May I make a correction for my
last column? Kirk Anderson and
Harrison Williams are not in the

Your statement yesterday be-

With kindest personal regards
and best wishes, I remain.
Very sincerely yours,

Regional School Plan
For South Is Illegal,
Educators Are Told

Creation of regional schools"
In the South for Negroes, to keep
them from attending established
colleges and universities, would be
killed by the courts before the
first brick is laid" an Arkansas
educator believes.
This opinion was expressed by
A. B. Bonds, jr., Arkansas State
Commissioner of Education, as he
addressed the 28th annual con-
ference of presidents of land
grant colleges at the Federal
Security building yesterday. The
three day meeting is scheduled to
end today.
Discussing the Southern
Regional Education Program, set
up In 1948 by governors and edu-
Gators, Mr.. Bond said the organ
ization neither favors nor opposes
racial segregation.
There has been no plan what
ever to build and operate a
regional school of any char
acter." Mr.. Bond declared He
said that such school to provide
equal out-of state facilities for
Negroes-even if contemplated
which it is not-Would not survive
court test.
Mr.. Bonds contended the gov
erning board of the program
wants to build outstanding edu-
cation in the South" He declared
the South will soon have some of
the finest graduate work of any
place in the world; said joint re-
search facilities will be utilized
and faculty members exchanged
as part of the project.
In Arkansas, he declared, the
decision was made voluntarily to
admit Negroes to the State uni
versity. He expressed the hope
that his State will continue to
lead in forward-looking educa-
tional movements. He told Of
white students there welcoming
Negro students and aiding the
latter in their studies.
Federal Security Administrator
Oscar r. Ewing, in a discussion
following the formal speeches
yesterday. declared the same
forces that opposed social gains
before 1882 will use the interna-
tional situation to oppose them
now.
DIR. Caliver HonOred.
President R. P. Daniel of Nir-
ginia State College. Petersburg,
Va, recalled the southern regional
program had to take new shapes,
because of criticism aimed at it
in the beginning. He said current
trends will not necessarily elm
mate Negro institutions, but will
result in wiping out weak educa-
tional institutions, regardless of
color. He said the trends will not
mean the elimination of the strong
private educational Negro insti-
tutions in the South.
He warned that I'VE may find
IN the next few years we may be
facing a time of reaction setting
in, after all these court decisions
and present trends"

World 10 Note Respect
U.S.. Pays lis Shrines,
Council Meeting Told

The world will note and long
remember whether the people of
the United States respect or neg
lect their national shrines, speak
ers declared today at the annual
meeting of the National Council
for Historic Sites and Buildings.
Luther H. Evans, librarian of
Congress; David E. Finley, director
of the National Gallery of Art, and
Maj. Gen. U. S. Grant III, presi-
dent of the council, stressed that
theme in talks at the opening of
the two-day meeting in the Ma
tional Gallery Auditorium.
The council, incorporated here
in 1947, is federation of groups
and individuals from all sections
in the country interested in pre-
serving historic structures, patri-
otic places and other sites asso-
ciated with the American heritage.
Operated jointly with it Is a Ma
tional Trust for Historic Preserva-
ton that accepts and administers
donations, objects and programs.
Ideals Are Emphasized.
The keynote address by DR..
Evans dwelt on the present in
ternational as well as national
Importance of preserving "the sur
viving tangible realities of our
past"
The core of the problem of
preserving significant historic
sites, he explained, is to make
larger numbers of Americans
aware of the ideals as well as the
realities those places represent.
The general public as well as
research workers must understand
that there is more to a place like
Valley Forge than merely a pic
ture or a story-book quality or a
subject for abstract study, he said.
Blood Was Real, He Says.
"We sometimes forget that the
blood on the snow was real blood"
he said. Going back to that
actual scene will help show US that
the problems of 1850 are no more
beyond solving than were those
of 1776."

were concise and clear.
Judge Bailey did not relish the
sensational and emotional cases

cases and to jury actions involv-
ing damage suits.
