As Thanksgiving
Drive Progresses

Optimism was the byword
when final plans for the Thanks
giving drive sponsored by the AL
phas were completed last Sun
day by representatives of the I'm
dergraduate fraternity and the
AKA sorority. Every effort is
being made to make this drive a
colossal success" commented
Harold X. Rowland, president of
Mu chapter, in expressing the
sentiments of the group.
Five hundred circulars and re-
ply cards were distributed to
Twin City churches, organiza-
tons. and community centers last
week urging residents TO contri-
butte groceries and other food
stuffs to this drive for needy
families. The circulars stressed
the fact that "a dinner doesn't
make a Thanksgiving Day. but
it is something to be thankful
for"
Social Service Agencies, which
sponsor a similar drive has been
contacted and will aid the chap
ter in finding needy families to
eliminate any duplication of eff

Because of the impossibility of

BY Staff Correspondent

The annual all-day confer
ence of the Minneapolis May
or's Council on Human Rela-
tons held Thursday, Nov. 8,
covered several phases of
minority group living and
participation in community life.
At the panel sessions groups
Of specialists and interested citi-
zens heard reports and discus
sions on the field of Real Estate,
Housing, Hospitals. Employment
and Education.
OF great interest was the dis
cussion on discrimination against
Negroes and other minorities by
private hospitals operated by
churches and other groups.
A point Of great irritation has
been the practice of Minneapolis
private hospitals forcing Negro
patients whose income calls for
ward or multiple Accommodations
to purchase private rooms.
- First public airing of private
hospital practices in regard to
minority group patients was con-
tanned in an address by Cecil e.
Newman, newspaper publisher,
before the Women's Auxiliary to
the Hennepin County Medical AS
ISOLATION back In 1914.
At that time several physicians
wives, members of the group, be-
gan to work to change the situa-
ton.
The Minneapolis Self Survey
substantiated Newman's charges
that Negroes and Indians were
forced to use private rooms at
higher rates in all Minneapolis
private hospital, whether they
wanted such Accommodations or
not.
Thursdays panel brought out
number of interesting and sig
nificant developments which in
dicates some change in the stu
alton.
An Investigator for the Mayors
Council subcommittee on hos
pitfalls, Mrs. Eugene Newhall said
a study by her revealed that 1871
Of Negroes hospitalized were
treated at General hospital, but
were not on public relief.
Her report said she ascertain
ed that the income of most of the
1871 was not adequate to pay pri-
vate room rates Of the private
hospitals and that ward accomo-
dations were apparently not made
available to this group.
Mrs. Newhan reported that
some Of the Negroes who were
forced to use the General hos
pital had disqualification insur-
ance.
DR.. Moses Barron reported that
Mt. Sinai hospital Is to open in
the near future with 200 beds
and most modern scientific and
laboratory facilities. This hos
pital though financed by the Jew
ish community has already en-
rolled on its staff more non
Jewish than Jewish physicians.
Its employment and professional
personnel practices are inter-
racial and without regard for re-
hgious creed. Its service policies
require that all patients have full
access to all facilities without re-
gard for race or creed or color.
All Facilities Open Stasel Says
Following DR.. Barron on the
panel. A. G. Stasel, superinten-
dent of Eitel hospital reported
that disqualification insurance has
aided in opening all hospital ia
cilities to all patients, and that in
Minneapolis hospitals ward &C.
cancellations are open TO all
corners II they request 1t.
He also reported that the Min
neapolis hospital council has APP
pointed a public relations COM
mittee. This committee. among
other duties. will receive COM
plants Of discrimination In per-
sonnet practices, and also reports
of segregation or discrimination
from patients who feel that hos

pitfalls have not permitted them
the space Accommodations which
they request.
He said that five years ago It
was customary In some hospitals,
as was reported in the Minneapo-
lis Self Survey. to admit Negro
and Indian patients only to pri-
vate rooms. This practice, he
stated, Is now no longer followed.
Question:
A question from the floor asked
by a young woman nurse whether
colored patients are not still
placed in private rooms In Fair
view hospital. Mr.. Langmoe,
president of the board of that hos
pital. as well as of the Minneapo-
Lis Hospital Council was sitting
in the audience. Mr.. Stasel called
upon him to ask what the policy
Of Fairview hospital Is. Mr..
Langemoe replied that he does
not know. A member Of a volun-
teer hospital group then asked
further questions which sought to
discover how long the committee
on public relations of the hospital
Council had been In existence
and why no publicity had been
given It.
No Complaints!

Now that the way has been
paved, it remains for us as
bowlers to really settle down
to real serious work. There are
individuals forms to be inn
proved and averages TO be
raised before we can carry off
any honors at city, state or ma
tional tournaments. Since
given the chance, with a little
hard work, we know we can
do it.
History
The Northern Lights League
began as just a small group Of
people who wished to howl They
met at Phyllis wheatley House
and bowled at the YwCA under
the leadership Of Mrs. Marguerite
Combs and Mrs. Helen Under
wood. Sometimes there were no
pinsetters available and hardly
enough bowlers to fiji the four
alleys. In spite OF this, interest
in bowling as a sport began to
take root and the group grew
large enough to force a move to
larger quarters.
January IL. I94s the group was
organized into the Phyllis Wheat
ley League and bowied at Min
neapolis Recreation. Since then
Central Bowling Lanes have given
the bowlers the benefits OF an or
ganization set up TO promote that
particular sport
Our success was assured at our
first meeting when Helen Under
wood was elected president. A
spirited, determined little lady
with a lot Of patience and under
standing and a lot of ability to
keep things moving. Secretaries
Mary 10 Howell, Clarence Under
wood. ST., and treasurer Don
Brady ST.. give much Of their
time and experience TO those very
important jobs of keeping records
and handling the business connec-
ted with the smooth operation of
all Of the details Of a successful
season of league bowling.

Grid Loop May Quit
By the Asseeiated Press

PATERSON, N. j., Nov. 8.-The
Paterson Panthers of the Ameri-
can Pro Football League have dis
banded for the rest of the season,
it was announced today.
The action by Stephen Dudiak,
team owner. whitfield the league
down to three teams-Jersey City,
Richmond, Va. and Erie, Pa
and there we're indications the
whole structure would fall apart
for this year at least.
Early in the season financial
difficulties caused Two other
teams, Bethlehem, Pa, and Brook
lyn, N. Y, to fall by the wayside.
The other four said then that
they would play out the season.
Joe Rosentover, league presi-
dent. said he "never in Is years
of pro football saw anything like
this year for trouble" He made
no statement as to whether the
league would try to finish the sea-
son with three teams.
Dudiak said he paid off all
players, coaches and other finan-
cial obligations last night and dis
banded the Panthers. He said he
understood Jersey City would dis
band, too. but there was no imme-
|diate word from Giants officials.

Maryland finally is favored
over North Carolina, team it
hasn't beaten since 1926. but
there's no danger of the Terps
becoming overconfident for Sat-
urday's Chapel Hill engagement
as long as Bill Meek holds his
voice.
Meek secuted the Tar Heels
against Wake Forest, William anc
Mary and Tennessee and Bill
makes them sound mighty for
midable for a team that has won
only two of six games.
The Maryland assistant coach
is not of the opinion that the Red
skins have had all the tough luck
in football. Meek can show you
where North Carolina could be
unbeaten to date if it could take
about five plays over, including
the one that cost the Tar Heels
the services of Billy Hayes in the
Tennessee game last week
North Carolina opened by
squeezing past stubborn N. c.
State, 1877. AS anybody with a
television set can tell you, the
North Carolina -Notre Dame game
could have gone either way, with
Carolina fumbles playing major
part in the 14-7 triumph for the
Irish.
Breaks Against Tar Heels.
The following week. the Tar
Heels and Georgia played a score
less tie and according to other
scouts that was one of the most
deceiving scores on record. 1t was
a tremendous offensive ball game
except that neither team could do
anything inside the 5-yard lines,
North Carolina missed two touch
down passes in the last quarter
that appeared to be money-in-the-
bank and then failed on a field
goal try in the fading seconds.
Against Wake Forest, North
Carolina had the ball on the Dea-
cons / in the last minutes and

q tumble as he bucked over. Wake
Forest recovered and later. with
