Nation Joins In
Fioht On Polio

The 1852 March of Dimes cam
paign now being conducted here
and in 10000 communities through
out the country is aimed at equip
ping the nation to cope with polio
on a national basiS-the only way,
experience has shown, that this
strange epidemic disease can be
fought with any degree of sue
cess.
The fact that no community-no
matter how large or small-can
meet a full-scale attack of infan-
tile paralysis, is demonstrated by
the experience of the first ten
months of 1851 when headquar-
ters of the National Foundation
sent almost $7OOOOO0 in March Of
Dimes funds to some 900 county
chapters whose own funds had been
depleted by epidemic demands.
But money, as such, is not the
only factor in fighting an epidemic
of polio. When infantile paralysis
strikes, many other forms of help
must come from the 'outside,' help
such as nurses, physical therapists
and equipment During 1851, hum
dreds of trained personnel and
huge quantities of equipment were
dispatched to critical areas by the
National Foundation
This two-Way fight by headquar-
ters and its chapters is made pos
sible by an even division of March
of Dimes funds. Half the money
raised remains with the chapter for
the care of local patients and, in
emergencies, to supplement the ma
tional epidemic aid fund. The other
so per cent goes to national head
quarters for research, professional
education and emergency assistance
to chapters in critical areas.

NC. Killers
Refused Release

Washington, D. G. (NNPA)-
Two convicted North Carolina kill
ers, under sentence of death by
asphyxiation, last Friday asked the
United States Supreme Court to
set aside the judgment of lower
Federal courts refusing to release
them on writs of habeas corpus.
The killers, Bennie Daniels and
Lloyd Ray Daniels, were found
guilty of frist-degree murder for
the death of William Benjamin
O'Neal, white. taxicab driver, Of
Greenville, N. c. O'NeaPs body was
found February 6, 1949. He had
been killed by knitting and heavy
blows.
The North Carolina Supreme
Court on May 8, 1850, refused to
review their convictions. They then
filed a petition for a writ of habeas
corpus in the Federal District Court
at Raleigh, N. c. The District
Court dismissed the proceedings
and was upheld by the United
States Fourth Circuit Court Of
Appeals.
On appeal to the Supreme Court
from the Circuit Court, they re-
peated their allegations that col
ored persons were excluded from
the grand and trial juries in their
case They also contend that their
convictions were secured on "al-
legged written confessions obtained
under circumstances actually or
Inherently coercive.

Three Men Admit
To Dynan1iting In
In Rome, Georgia

Rome, Ga. CNNPA)-Three white
men have admitted setting off a
dynamite charge near a colored
social club here Sunday, December
80.
The men, R. H. Armstrong, 40;
Charles R. Thompson, 27, and Jack
Brown, about 80, were charged laSt
Tuesday with exploding dynamite
near a non-residential building,
which is a felony, and failing to
register the purchase of an ex-
plosive, a miSdemeanOr.
No one was hurt in the early
morning blast.
Police Chief Smith Horton quoted
the men as saying the club was a
public nuisance and that they
were trying to frighten colored
persons into closing. The three men
live in the general area of the cub.
Horton added that investigation
indicated that there was no con-
nection between the club incident
and an attempt to blow up a
Southern Railway diesel engine on
the night of December %.
Two men fled from the engine
under a train shed when a pasSer-
by approached. Nine sticks of dyna-
mite were found under the engine.

The disgraceful incident of the
bombing of the home of one Of
our NAACP leaders in the South
has been one of the most dis
cussed topics in the New Year.
Yes, Mr.. Moore and his wife, of
Florida, the victims, were indeed
brave, and we sincerely hope their
souls, beyond life, are entombed
in the promised Land"
Did you hear "The State of the
Union" message by our president
Wednesday? Did he say much
about the rights of minorities here
at home? No; but he did dwell on
human rights behind the iron cur
tain, and other parts of the world.
Do we reach clear across waters
and lands of this big earth to do
a job that has not had enough
attention in our own "back yard ?"
The "fued" between 10 Baker
and the UN Delegate was one of
the high-lights in the news this
week. Mrs. Sampson blasted Miss
Baker for her all-out publicity on
racial bias here in the States. She
reminds Miss Baker that her own
adopted land Go is French sub
ject now) has held sway over COL
onies in Africa for years.
Both the ladies are brilliant, and
I am sure both have contributed
to great degree to better race
relations in this country and also
abroad, however, the scales tip a
little in favor of Mrs. Sampson,
J. think; because she knows Miss
Baker is squawking about demo-
cratic tactics in a nation which
is like her own.
There has been nationwide at
tention given to a story of a col
ored CT whose body has rested. in
niche in local mortuary be-
cause the father of the dead SOL
dier wished to break the rule Of
a "go ahead sign" from the three
veterans organizations before col
ored GIs could be buried in a vet
eran's plot in a local cemetery.
Some months ago, nationwide
attention was given to a story of
an Indian who fought and died
in Korea, but could not be laid
to rest in a Caucasian cemetery.
President Truman interceded, Of
fering the family burial for their
loved one in Arlington Cemetery.
Though the barrier has been
broken here, those inferred in the
veterans plot must have positive
and actual proof of his claim. I
am still wondering if the president
would have offered a national
burial for the body of Pvt. Thomas

About Sports
By GEORGE LYLE, JR.

Philadelphia (NNPA)-I took in
my first hockey game last week,
and it's all that the advance notices
have called for. It's positively the
fastest game I've ever witnessed,
and the fact that Art DorringtOn,
a lad from Truro Nova Scotia, was
on the team made it even more
interesting.
Dorrington, the only colored play
er in the Eastern Hockey League,
is 21, weighs 100 and skates like
a streak. Last year he played with
the Atlantic City Seagulls, and
started this season with the New
Haven's Tomahawks.
His debut last week with the
Washington Lions was impressive
and, if I get to see many more Of
those contests, I'll be talking about
face-offs, pucks, goalies, and stuff
like that there with the best of
them.
If you get chance-dash over
to your nearest ice hockey arena
and see a game-it'll leave you
breathless and also slightly dizzy
from trying to follow the play.
FOOTBALL BOWS OUT
The professional bootfall season
ended here Sunday, December 16,
when the Cleveland Browns came
to town and event to town" at
. the expense of the Philadelphia
8Ga giles. Marion Motley, who press
agent Russ Gentry tabs as the
greatest fullback he has ever seen,
lived up to his reputation as he
sliced off plenty of yardage.
This guy was supposed to be
washed up at the beginning of
the season. In fact, as it was told
at the weekly press luncheon held
by the Eagles, Motley had one
and half pints of fluid drained
from one knee and a half pint from
the other before the Browns played
their first game. 1t was doubtful
that he would last the season out
but in the Brown-Eagles game he
was magnificent.
& Horace Gillion, with his booming
punts that carried for better than
fifty yards; Bill Willis who has
been tabled the greatest lineman
in the league, Emerson Cole, an
other fulback, and Len Ford, real
great defensive end, all contributed
greatly to the Browns victory.
While speaking of the Eagles,
General Manager Vance McNally
asked yours truly to do a bit of
work for them in rounding up col
ored players. The management sit
uation which has existed, barring
colored players, has been corrected
and next season, if there are no
colored players on the Eagles squad,
it will not be because they haven't
tried to get them.
So, I'll ask you coaches, and the
rest of you who are interested,
please give me a lead on any play

Traffic Fatalities Up

The City of Phoenix ended 1851
with 16 traffic fatalities, compared
with IA in 1850. The increase of 2
comes in the face of a tremendous
increase in the traffic problem.
Automobile registration was up
3036 in 1851 compared with 1850.
Tourist traffic and activity at mill
tary airfields has increased. The
city has adedd to its area by an
neXation. Significant in the traffic
record for the year is the fact that
there were no fatalities during De-
cember, one of the heaviest traffic
months. This is the first time in
more than 5 years that December
has passed without a fatality. The
recently launched commodity cam
paign to promote safe driving, post
ing of Don't Drive If You Drink"
posters and the use of auxiliary
policemen to direct traffic during
December have contributed to
making the December record pos
sible. During the past 5 calendar
years there have been total of
so traffic fatalities in the city dis
tributed as follows: 1947, 18; 194S,
II; 1949, 20; 1850, IA, and 1851, 16.
To date no fatal accidents have
occurred during 1852.

cattle are fed corn to put quality
