H { AVy RAINS
R0UT PHEASANTS

Rains of torrential proportions
the past week in the northwestern
section of the state has flooded
much of the lowland areas and
has caused game management men
some worry over the possible dam
age to the pheasant population.
Bill Edwards, game manage
ment supervisor OF District No. 2,
which embraces the majority Of
Ohio's good pheasant territory,
says that undoubtedly many hat
ched chicks were destroyed by
the flooding, and that many more
nests were abandonded.
Edwards, prior to the big rains,
said that indications were tha; a
good pheasant crop could be cX-
pected in that area. Growing cock
counts in the district showed an
average of one bird per IL acres
which is considered very good
winter carry-over.
Just what the extremely heavy
rains has done to the potential
population remains to be seen.

MIDGET RACING
AT SANDUSKY

Arrangements are underway
for scheduling midget car races
on the new Sandusky Speedway
according to Executive secretary y
Tom Warren of the Lake Erie
Stock Car Racing Association. He
also said his Office is negotiating
with big car racing associations
for q meeting of the big car class
in Sandusky sometime this sum-
mer. This type of racing is new
and gaining considerable public
favor, Warren said.
Soon there will be night racing
on the speedway which accomo-
dates 1000 persons. About half of
the lights have been installed al
ready and it is expected the job
will be completed for the big
feature races scheduled for July
4 weekend.
About 1,500 fans saw Sandusky's
Csabe Vaccaro win the June 10tk
feature and preserve the tradition
of different feature victor every
week.

TRIBES MOUND
STAFF LACKING

Naturally, no one can tell for
cartain, but baseball men for years
have propounded the theory that
"pitchang is 1870 of a teams
strength. Isn't that why the Bos-
ton Red Sox blew the pennant
these last three seasons? And is
Mt that the answer to the Yankees
stability during the past two de-
cades? That's what they say, and
that's why at least few of those
experienced observers picked the
Cleveland Indians to finish in
front in 1851.
But what's happening! Those
same Indians, boaSting a pitching
staff which includes four of the
based on last years earned rum
ratings, are tagging along, some
seven or eight names back of the
pace. And that in spite of the fact
that raw freshman from the
Eastern League, Bob Chakales, has
come along to add a fifth starter
TO the staff which already includes
Bob Fcllcr, Bob Lemon Early
Wynn and Mike Garcia.
OF course, it could be that the
Tribe staff isn't as good as some
people thought, that their league
leadership over three straight
campaigns is now ancient history.
However, the figures won't sup
port any such simple observation
They say that the Indian pitchers
are still the tops considering both
individual talent and depth. Col
lcctively, those aforementioned
tive starters have allowed just
three and a quarter earned run,
per game, yet theis win and los
percentage is only 500, consider
ably less than a normal champion
ship pace.

Booker Washington Birthplace,
Virginia: There is in the heads
of the Negro youth in the South,
enough general and floating know
ledge of chemistry, botany, of 20
ology, of mechanics, of electricity,
of mathematics, to reconstruct and
develop a large part of the agri-
cultural, mechanical and domestic
life of the race. But how much of
it is brought to focus along lines
of practical work?" Booker T..
Washington made this statement
nearly fifty years ago.
Washington was concerned with
the practical aspects of education.
When he died in 1915, although
gains had been made, the matter
OF focusing general or even spe-
cialized knowledge of educated
Negroes along practical lines of
work was not too significant. And
it isn't today, in 1851.
At one time, it was common
knowledge that there were more
qualified teachers working as por-
ters in New York's Grand Central
Station than in some of our col
leges. They didn't all come from
Southern Colleges either. Professor
Kelly Miller, late beloved dean of
Howard University, often spoke of
the 'mis-education' of the Negro.
Could he have had redcaps in
mind?
Failing To Meet the Real Needs
The growth of Negro educa-
tional institutions, the gradual
elimination of illiteracy from
high of 81.4 in 1870, to a low of
lilo in 1850, plus other encourag-
ing reports showing increased high
school and college attendance are
indications of progress. However,

FEPC Legislation Billed
For This Session
quota

SPRINGFIELD, ILL. (NNPA-
Fair employment practice legisla-
ton was defeated for this session
last Tuesday when the Senate re-
fused to place the FEPC bill on
the calendar.
Senator Christopher C. Wimbish,
Democrat of Chicago, the only
colored Senator, said he will dis
5cuss with House members the ad-
visibility of trying to push the
measure in the lower chamber.
Even if that were done, however,
it would be merely for the pur-
pose of getting record vote.
The FEPC bill was killed in the
1943, 1915, 1947 and 1949 legisla-
tive sessions. Two years ago it
missed passage by a single vote in
the Senate.
Two weeks ago the Senate Com
n1ittee on Industrial Affairs voted
9 to 3, against FEPC. Wimbish,
last Thursday, made a motion to
override this action by placing
the bill on the Senate calendar.
Needing twenty-eight votes, the
motion got only twenty-five.
Senator Edward P. Saltiel and
Senator Peter J. Miller, Chicago
Republicans, joined twenty Demo-
Gratis in a standing vote for VIM
bish's motion. Because this settled
the issue, no standing vote was
taken of opponents.
Senator Merritt Little, Republi-
can of Aurora, said a full and fair
hearing had been given to both
sides in committee.
Some day a similar but diff
ferent bill will be acceptable to
the public" Little said. The bill
carried penalties against employers
who refused to desist in racial and
religious job discrimination.

about the Negroes ability to read.

this situation is now being readied

badly, if we are to quicken our
forward march.
If there is any one particular
fault with formal education insti-
tutions among Negroes it is this:
They fail to point-up the areas in
which Negroes can earn more
money. Just making living is
not the answer, if we are to catch
up to the money-making potential
of other citizens. All of our So
called problems stem from our
lack of finance land until our erst-
while educational leaders learn
about the profit motive, which is
the key to our success as a demo-
cracy, it will be many years, as
DIR. Benjamin Mays says, before
we can reach complete equality.
Graduates Forget Alma Mater
Because graduates of Negro in
stitutions neer recevive proper
guidance in how to make money
as a group, they cannot and do
not support Negro colleges with
special gifts or endowments. They
are too poor themselves. Presidents
prefer to think that graduates are
simply forgetful of their alma
matters. Would graduates forget an
institution that made it possible
for them to earn real money? Of
course not. There should be re-
camping of college Trustee Boards
to tinclude more business men. The
reason for putting business men
en- trustee boards is all the more
apparent when you think about
the influence these men can WELD
in securing better paying posi-
tions for graduates.
