Mocalis is something of phil

money-the best jeep driver in the

Sometimes 22-year-old Dave

over his eyes and tramps on the
accelerator.
He dismiSses your fears cas-

hot-rod auto at 129 miles per
hour.
Korea's roads - often veritable
goatpathS-are not even remotely
similar, however. to the highways
and race courses near Mocalis'
home in Santa Monica, Calf. So
his easy assurances do not quiet
your fears.
The corporal is doing his second
hitch in the Army, although for a.
moment before signing the second
time he dallied with the idea of
joining the Navy.
The lure of the sea called to him
strongly the other day when we
boarded a United States Navy ship
In a South Korean port.
Mocalis was uShered grandly
into the crews mess and food was
thrust upon him.

Human Carriers
Of Polio Virus,
Science Believes

NEW YORK-Human beings are
the spreaders of polio, scientists are
beginning to believe. The shrewdest
work has failed to prove anything
except that other sources of polio
are infected from people.
Scientists observed that in polio
outbreaks the disease is spread
along railroad routes, bus routes,
rivers, and valleys. There some
times did not seem to be much in
uplands.
Mosquitoes were suspected. Other
bugs, too. Something had to be
carrying it along these routes. But
nothing at all was proved against
insects, not even the flies, though
polio virus, sometimes was found
on, and inside flies.
The human chain explains easily.
Polio spreads along these routes
because that is where people live in
the largest numbers.
Another mystery is why polio
epidemics occur only in hot wealth
er. The disease runs the year round.
II hot weather alone were the ex-
PLANTATION for epidemics, these out
breaks would be expected to last
longer in the South than in the
North. But they don't.
In the South the epidemics start
earlier. They reach their peaks
earlier. But after about two months,
even though hot weather may be
far from over, the southern epidem-
les begin to decline.
The short duration of the cpl
denies can be explained on the
theory that human beings are the
spreaders.
In two months the infection may
spread to most of those who are
susceptible, keeping in mind that its
real spread, to the silent cases, is
200 times more than among the
openly sick. The chain reaction be-
gins then to break down from lack
of enough susceptible victims.
Vegetables have been suspected
because epidemics begin soon aft
er the start of the fresh-vegetable
season. Early ase r often found
on farms. But no sign of polio virus
has been found in vegetables.
Occasionally a polio outbreak has
been traced along a milk route.
But the virus has yet to be dis
covered in milk. All trails, except
the human pathway, so far end in
blind alleys.

University OF

Negro Students

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Dec. G. The
University of Tennessee board of
trustees Monday denied the appli-
cation Of five Negroes for admis-

The board, meeting in executive
session, said it was bound by the
state constitution expressly pro-
vides that there shall be segrega-
ton in the education of the races
in schools and colleges in Tennes-
see. And said a violation would
subject the violator to prosecution,
conviction and punishment.
Four Knoxville, Negroes had ap-
piled for admission to the college of
law and the graduate school. The
fifth, a Memphis resident, wants
to study law.
Earlier State Attorney General
Roy H. Harper had said he saw
no alternative to U. S. Supreme
Court rulings that Negroes can not
be barred from state universities
because of their race.
Meanwhile the Attorney for four
Knoxville Negroes indicated Mon
day that a suit would be filed con-
testing rejection Of their applica-
tons.
ut appears from the face of it
that we have no other recourse but
to pursue, in due time, our remedy
in the courts" said Attorney Carl
Cowan when informed that the
university's board of trustees had
turned down the applications.

tive in the National Association for

pie, represents four Of the five ap-
plicants.

# the Wilmington Branch, Nation
al Association for the Advance

'The action of Salesianum in adj

sificance: first, it sets an example
in Americanism for the public

ty of educational opportunity; Sec
nd, it demonstrates a willingness
to unite Americans at home and
is a token of good faith in our
national effort to unite other peo-

Delaware Catholic
School First In
State To Admit
Negro Students

WILMINGTON, Del, Nov. =
Especially Salesianum High
School, conducted under Catholic
auspices, became the first educa-
tional institution, aside from the
University of Delaware, to admit
Negroes, when five Negro students
began attending classes November
IA.
The University of Delaware ad-
mitted Negroes to under graduate
courses for the first time last Sep
TENDER.
The Very Rev. DR.. Thomas A.
Lawless, O.S.F.S., rector of the
Catholic high school, in announc-
ing that the students began at
tending the classes, said, 81 see
nothing to apologize for, other
than the fact that it wasn't done
years ago. | think it's a case of
reaching point Of either stop
ping the preaching of democracy
or starting to practice it."
All of the students are not in the
same grade levels. The school made
no special announcement to the
other pupils. They simply came to
the classrOoms, were introduced
as new students, and classes con-
tinued.
Negro students are prevented
from attending the same classes
as white children in public schools
by the State Constitution. This pro-
vision has no application to private
schools.
This fact was noted by the
Catholic Interracial Council in it's
bulletin last September. Referring
to private and parochial schools it
said in part:
These schools appear to go a.
long with the practice of segrega-
ton and this, we believe, is in
consistent with Catholic and demo-
cratic principles. If we are to rea-
lie the advantages flowing from
non-segregated education, someone
must lead the way in both princi-
pie and practice.
Eve hope that all private and
parochial schools, not being bound
by any such restrictive laws, will
demonstrate such leadership by ac-
cepting qualified Negroes on non
segregation basis. Let each of us
voice our support of such action.
The time is now"
William Duffy, Jr., president of
the council, said last night:
Eve are deeply gratified by the
admission of Negroes to Salesia-
mum. 1t is significant advance in
the realization of equal opportuni-
ty for all people, and it is a decis-
ion which will be sincerely support
ed by all fairminded members of
the community. We extend our con-
CALCULATIONS to all of those respon-
sible. for this courageous and COM
mendable action"
The Rev. Richard H. Bready,
chairman of the Delaware Fellow
ship Commission, last night issued
the following statement:
I'VE congratulate Salesianum on
this significant forward step, which
is in harmony with the trend to-
ward more democratic practices in
education, industry and political
life. Salesianum may take just
pride in it's leadership and example
in the field of secondary educa-
tion."
