Bunche Honored
By Sculptures
BY Gladys P. Graham

NEW YORK (ANP) The cycle
of scupltured stone likenesses of
IL distinguished Negro Americans
begun two years ago by Sculptress
Ruth Brazil was completed here re-
Gently when the life bust of DR..
Ralph Johnson Bunche, director of
the UN trusteeship division, was
unveiled at ceremonies honoring
the intrepid mediator of the Arab
Israeli conflict. Miss Brall's pro-
ject of fashioning in stone the
likenesses of prominent Negroes
was a personal contribution
against bias in a democracy.
The bust was formerly present
ed to the United Negro college
fund by DR.. Reginald E. Gilmore,
vice-president Of Sperry corpora
ton. DR.. Bunche told the inter-
racial audience gathered for the
ceremonies that he was "greatly
impressed with the foresight and
insight of the individuals making
the presentation possible" He
said further that UNCF was per-
forming a "great service to make
opportunities possible for those Of
the population denied because OF
discriminatory practices in a dem
ocracy."
Sculptress Brazil told the group
that her works in stone spoke her
sentiments on the Importance OF
the good neighbor policy in Am
erica.
Receiveing the bust for the fund
was William Trent, who lauded
the role played by Sperry corpora
ton and Miss Brazil. Among other
notables present at the ceremon-
les were Drs. Claiming H. Tobias,
Robert C. Weaver, President Nor
on of Hampton and Roy Wilkins
of the NAACP.

Dunbar Favored In
Relays Meet

AS today's Daily EXPRESS
goes to press the third annual
Dunbar Relays will be underway.
The program arranged by Dun
bar track coach and former natl
onal high-jump king, Dave AL
britton, will see Is schools enter
about $50 boys in IA events. The
meet is the largest school meet
held in Dayton. 1t is developing
into n of the finest scholastic
meets in the state.
Dunbar High Schaol will be the
defending champs this year. The
Wolverines copied the event last
year, defeating the 1913 winner,
Springfield Public. The Summit
Street lads are favored to win
again this year with the Troy Tro-
jams expected to furnish the
stiffest opposition. Last year, 6
of the IA times established in 49,
48 were broken. This time, ac-
cording to Albritton, the only
mark that seems safe is the O9.95
set inthe 100 yard dash by Ham
ilton Public's Jim Bailey.
Albritton has gone to some
trouble to put a special event with
Nal Whitfield, the star. Ma is
the world middle distance champ,
having won the quarter-and half
mile nautical equivalent in Lon
don in the 1913 Olympics. Whit
field will run the $50 paced by
two men each of whom will run
the 44O. In obliging his friend AL
britton, and Dayton track fans,
Whitfield is putting off his trip
to Utah for the Salt Lake City In
vitational Relays until Friday. He
had intended to leave for Utah
today. There will be an admission
charge of twenty-five cents.
Actually the event is misnamed.
While there r relay events
scheduled, not enough of them are
relays to properly classify it as
the Dunbar Relays. 1t should be
called a track and field event. The
famous Penn Relays (Which, in
cidentally, will be held in Phila-
delphia tomorrow and Saturday,
are just that. But it is true that
most relays feature individuals
track events such as sprints, mile
run, etc.
Last years meet was almost a
sellout, so those who intend to go
had better get there early for the
best vantage point.

Less hardy insects such as screw

insect are not likely to occur thi

Insecticides should be stocked

the entomologists stated. 1t il
good insurance to buy half of the
recommended poison needed fol
a normal year.
If not used as planned, poison
ing materials can be carried over
several years without loss.
Poisoning nearly doubled the
J gross income from the 1850 Mis-
sissippi cotton crop, accounting for
an added 500, 900, 900 or more
which farmers would not have re-
ceived without poisoning, accord
ing to a survey of Agricultural
Extension Service county agents
throughout the state.
One to two bale per acre yields
were made by several farmers in
nearly every cotton producing
county, despite the heaviest boil
weevil in~festation on record and
with most unfavorabie weather
conditions. Rainfall for the fist
nine months of 1850 was the heav-
lest since 1912.
Poison blanketed IS per cent of
the states cotton acreage this
year, compared to about SO per
cent for any previous year.
Survey totals showed that
104 LAO farmers poisoned 1892, 700
acres, using 66,424,000 pounds of
dust and 983, 800 gallons of con-
centrate for sprays.
Average yield of line per acre
is estimated at 315 pounds this
year, only Is pounds below the
$50 pound average for the years
1889 through 1948.
Poisoning on a definite schedule
proved to be more important
than the kind of poison a farmer
used, SO long as he used one Of
the recommended poisons, stated
entomologists L. c. Murphree of
the Agricultural Extension Ser
vice and DIR. Clay Lyle of the Ex-
pertinent Station.
OF 800 farms surveyed in one
county, farmers who did not pois-
on at all made from so to 200
pounds of seed cotton per acre
Others who poisoned three of four
but did not follow a sched-
ule, had one-fourth to one-third
