Judge Perry
Unopposed For
Reelection

Cleveland (NNPA) - In one
of the most surprising election de-
velopments in this area in many
years, Municipal Judge Perry B.
Jackson passed the deadline-day
for filing of nominations without
a single opponent in his race for
reelection to the Cleveland bench.
Jackson is the only judge to
run for reelection unopposed by
formal filing in the coming CAM
paign. His only opposition now
would have to come from a write
in candidate, a mechanism not Of
ten used in a race for a judge
ship in this area.
A spokesman for Judge Jack
son said last Tuesday that "this is
one of the finest tributes of con-
fidence and support ever given a
Negro candidate in Ohio. While
it does not mean that Judge Jack
son is already elected, it does show
tremendous puDllc Ieel1ng with
which I am sure Judge Jackson
is .gratified and happy.
1--WE will work all the harder
now to pile up a record vote in
the fall, to pave the way for more
people to receive merited recog-
milton in the city, county and state
courts"
Judge Jackson, national Of
ficer in the Elks and member of
more than two dozen large Cleve-
land organizations, was appointed
to the bench six years ago and
has served one full elected term
and part of another appointive one.
He is Ohio's only colored judge.

Source Of Letter

Richmond, Va. (NNPA) - Two
defeated candidates for the State
Senate last Monday posted a $500
reward for information leading to
the source of an anonymous letter
designed to get white voters to

Committee for Advancement of
Colored People in America" IT
urged colored voters to support
Senator Charles w. Crowder,
Beecher E. Stallard and City Coun-
Gilman E. E. Wiley as alleged sup
porters of an anti-segregation
movement. 1t was sent, as far as
is known, only to white persons.
Senator Crowder and Mr.. Stall
lard offered the reward for "the
first disclosure of the person or
persons who caused the letter to
be prepared and circulated" John
H. Redd, real estate man, is assist
ing in the investigation of the
source of the letter. ~
Meanwhile, Howard H. Carwile,
independent candidate for the
State Senate in the November
general election, wrote Attorney
General ]. Lindsay Almond last
Monday asking whether the re-
ward offer might not be a viola
ton of the State lottery laws.

Browns "ageless" pitcher, con-

In New York City it was none
other than Casey Stengel, man.
ager of the New York Yankees,
who said he was not trying to run
Bill Weeks business but if the
Browns manager was smart, he
would start Paige in one game of
Sunday doubleheader and fill
Yankee Stadium with tailend
ball club.
Not only that but Stengel went
on to say that Paige's hesitation"
pitch, which Manager Steve O'Neill
of the Boston Red Sox is protesting
in a loss to the Browns, was per-
fectly legal.
THAT hiccup-type delivery" ad-
mitted Stengel, "drove our boys
crazy in St. Louis when he held
us hitless for five innings without
any ball going out of the infield." :"
Yankee batters were all set to
murder Paige's pitches but he
kept them popping up. The after
noon was hot, and finally Stengel
ordered his players to bunt or just
meet the ball. When Paige realized
what the Yankee players were do
ing, Stengel said, the old man
looked over at him and scowled.
After starting to bunt on him,
the Yankees drove Paige from the
box.

Thomas Dickey Tells Why
ROTC Is Necessary


When Thomas H. Dickey, Jr.,
graduate of Carver, '43, returned
home on furlough from Camp
Stoneman, Calf, and heard of the
threatened loss of the ROTC by
Carver, he was so concerned that
he Immediately got in touch with
Principal Robinson. Young Dickey's
concern is understandable since he
was the first Carver student to
be commanding officer OF the Car
yer ROTC in 1943.
According to Dickey the Carver
Unit was organized in 1912 after
much effort by the Carver stu
dents and Principal Lee and Super
intendent Montgomery. That first
year the commanding officer of
the Carver ROTC was Captain
Dan Espinoza, member of the
Phoenix Union ROTC, who volun-
teered to come over and work with
the Carver Unit until the Carver
students were well enough trained
to take over complete command
of the unit. The Carver boys were
to eager to have unit that they
agreed to have membership in mill
tary made compulsory for the all
80 or IS boys then in attendance.
An ROTC unit has been organ
lied at Phoenix Union High School
for several years but Carver had
less than 200 students in total en-
rcllment and less than 100 boys
and there was some hesitancy on
the part of the United States De-
partment of Army to organize a
unit with so few boys. Dickey says
that the unit was a n1velty and
the boys were so interested that
they were willing to stay after
school to drill. The first year the
boys had rifles but no uniforms and
drilled in the old dirt field that
the boys then called the "dust
bowl" How we would have ap-
preciated the grassed parade field
that the Carver boys have now"
says Dickey.
When told that one parent had
indicated religious scruples about
military, Dickey said that parents
should be realistic and face the
fact that whether they want the
boys to go to the army or not,
there is almost no doubt that the
boys will have to go into the army
when their time comes. II didn't
exactly want to go, but have
served two tours in the army al
ready. I enlisted in 1943, right af-
ter I finished high school, and
was in until February, 1916, and
was again recalled from the re-
serves in September, 1850. Each
time I profited by my experience
in military at Carver. Before I had
been in year, the first time, !
was made a sergeant and that was
in the midst of a tough war where
it wasn't too easy to reach that
kind of rank"
"Of course" said Dickey, mot
all of the members of the unit
can be officers. Some will have To
be privates, but the cadet privates
learn just as much about soldier
ing or more than those who are
chosen as cadet non-commissioned
and officers, and in their way, con-
tribute just as much to the success
of the ROTC in a school, It is
the cadet privates who win honors
for the unit in exhibitions if they
are good"
Dickey went on to say that he
wished he could be in PhoeniA
after Carver opened so that he
could tell the boys in military how

campaign to organize sawmill
workers in Dublin, the county seat
of Laurens.
Senator Hubert Humphrey, Dem
ocrat of Minnesota, who presided
at the afternoon session, said the
committee was primarily interested
in two things: 1. whether there was
any activity on the part of law
enforcement officers to impede
union organizations in violation of
the Taft-Hartley labor law, and
2. whether a system of peonage
was practiced there.
The two union organizers
Charles H. Gilman, State Direc-
tor for Georgia of the CIO South
ern Organizing Committee, and
Clyde G. Brook, a representativ
of the organizing committee, both
native Georgians and residents Of
Atlanta, were arrested at a meet
ing, ,of-colored sawmiH hands=of the
Cordell Lumber Company in Dub
lin on the night of February 8.
Sheriff Carlus Gay of Laurens
County made the arrest in the
grocery store of colored man
named Ernest Simms. According to
Brock, there were fifty or fifty
five persons present at the meet
ing all of whom were colored ex-
cept one white man in addition
to the two CIO organizers.
Gilman testified that he opened
the door CT the store when Sheriff
Gay and his deputies knocked. He
said the sheriff had a gun in one
hand and a flashlight in the other
and started cursing the colored
men and asking them what they
were doing and ran them all out
of the building.
Brock testified that as two col
ored men stepped to a table to
give him their signed membership
cards, there was knock on the
door. The door was opened, he
said, and he heard "a gruff voice
say, What in the hell are you
damn niggers doing here?"
The voice then said, "All of you
get out of this building" Brock
also said he looked around and
saw Sheriff Gay with a gun in
one hand and flashlight in the
other.
Brock said the sheriff ordered
him and Gilman to stand where
they were and asked them, What
are you doing at this damn niger
meeting?"
Both union organizers said they
told the sheriff they were holding
a union meeting. Brock quoted the
sheriff as replying, "Union hell,
you are holding damn Commu-
mist meeting!"
Sheriff Gay ordered the two
union organizers locked up. Brock
said the sheriff also asked the
third white man, Carl Holiday, an
employee of the Cordell Lumber
Company, what he was doing there.
When Holiday replied that he
had come to the union meeting
with the two organizers, Brock
testified, the sheriff told Holiday,
"You get the hell out of here and
don't let me catch you around
here again"

THE YEAR BOOK

If you were around school all
last week, and I'm sure you were,
you will probably remember the
campaign the Seniors have been
putting on in order to get students
to buy the year books. The year
books put out this year are going
to be much better than before.
They will have thick padded COW
ers, and the pages will not oRly
be finished and glossy, but there
will also be more pages in the
book. OF course, they will cost
more, $500, but it will be worth
the extra money to get the year
book.
The year books will go to Wis
consin where pictures will be TAX
en- of each page as we wish to have
it printed. Most of the pictures
we are going to take, have been
taken. The basketball pictures
will be taken after the teams have
been chosen.
Quotations for the write-ups are
being used with each picture. The
theme Of the year book is "The
Theater."

mis- Student Council work which
takes up quite bit Of his spare
time.
He likes food, lively people and
parties. He likes to dance, laugh
loud and have a good time.

EDITORIAL

Once again Thanksgiving has
rolled around, and everyone has
bought his turkey, invited the fam
lily for dinner, or attended the Mil
fOrd-Dover football game. This
seems to be the modern interpreta-
tiOn of Thanksgiving.
So often we forget the true mean
ing of this holiday. When our Pill
grim fathers had their first
Thanksgiving it was a day of praise
and alteration to our Heavenly
Father, Who had guided them
through the treacherous winter.
They took this opportunity to
thank God for their daily bread,
their freedom to worship as they
pleased, their homes, and their
lives. How many of us this Thanks
giving are thanking God for our
food, homes, and freedom of
speech, press, and religion? How
many of us are remembering to
thank Him for our free nation and
the boys fighting to keep it free?
The staff of M. H. S. News hopes
that everyone has a nice vacation,
but we also hope that more people
will remember the true meaning of
Thanksgiving.

NEW BRITISH BASES

BRUSSELS -(P)- British army
supplies for occupation troops in
Germany, are expected to start NOV
ing through Belgium early in 1852.
Work was recently begun on the
construction of a traffic center for
the British army in the Campine
area of Antwerp Province, 20 miles
east of the port of Antwerp.
When completed the center will
cover 1852 acres and include a gas
Oline dump and storage space for
all types of army supplies. The in
stallatiOns will be dispersed in 26
locations. A few miles further east
two new airfields are also under
construction. They will not, how
ever, be manned during peace time.
At present most British supplies
pass through the port of Hamburg.
Military tacticians, however, have
decided that Hamburg is too close
to uncontrolled territory. A
lunge at Hamburg could quickly cut
off supplies for the British in Ger
many.
