period, while plaintiffs application
was pending, no reason for denial
of his application has ever been
given.
Ward points out in the petition
that his application was not hand
led in the usual manner in spite
of a promise from the Secretary of
the Board of Regents that his ap-
plication would be completely
evaluated at an early date after he
declined "out-of state aid" on Oc-
tober II, 1850.
"At the same time, and subse-
quent thereto, white students with
similar or less qualifications were
admitted to the School of Law of
the University for the summer and
fall quarters of 1851" the plain
tiff says in the petition.
Meanwhile Ward appealed to the
defendants in routine steps, in
Guiding the registrar of the Uni
versity, the president, chancellor,
and Board of Regents. On Febru-
airy -, the plaintiff was advised
that the Board had adopted new
procedures governing admission to
the School of Law of the University
of Georgia, and that his applica-
ton would be governed by these
procedures.
Unlawful Discrimination
According to the petition, "the
policy, custom and usage of the de-
PENDANTS and each of them of pro-
viding and maintaining legal train
ing and facilities at and in the
aforesaid school of law for white
citizens Of the state out of public
funds while failing and refusing to
provide adequate legal training and
facilities for plaintiff and other
qualified Negro residents of the
state wholly and solely on account
of their race and color is an un-
lawful discrimination and constitu-
ties denial Of the right of the
plaintiff and other qualified Ne
groes to the equal protection of the
laws in contravention of the Four
teenth Amendment to the U. S..
Constitution.
Ward asks that the Court issue
permanent injunction forever re-
straining and enforcing the defend
ants and each of them from deny
ing plaintiffs admission to the
School of Law of the University of
Georgia or from further attempts
to deny plaintiffs admission by un-
lawful attempts to govern his ap-
plication by new rules and pro-
cedures not in force at the time he
applied and not then made appli-
cable to white students of equal
or less qualifications than plain
tiff possessed who were accepted

Teen-Age Models

II is practice in some large department stores
to invite the young of the high schools of the
community to model some of the latest styles.
These programs are advertised in the newspapers,
and the young ladies apparently feel quite fatered
that they invited.
1t is regrettable, however, that some of these
programs include the modelling of rather bold
styles II is embarrassing, therefore, to learn that
girls from Catholic high schools are among those
paradng before the assemblies in strapless gowns,
at time when other Catholic girls of the nation
conducting campaign for modesty in dress. This
movement for decency is sparked by the Sunday
Visitor" and group of girls known the S.DS.-
which means supply the demand for the supply"
They are endeavoring to get high school girls to
wear modest clothing for the annual commencement
week proms.
But local large department store offended
seriously this month by inviting the teen-age girls
from high schools, including some Catholic ones, to
model before boys of other schools hereabouts.
What was the particular type of clothing sched-
uled for the days modelling? Styles for the beach.
If this is the sort of thing that teenagers want.
then they must be taught differently by parents
and those who educate them in character well as
in book knowledge.
The wonderful young women of our Catholic
high schools who are receiving their diplomas this
year, will exert tremendous influence on fash
ions if they insist upon modest and therefore,
beautiful, dresses for their formal occasions OF
commencement week. Their example will add dig
nifty to the events which mean much to them and
their friends at this time.

enrolment and limited private financing Catholic
Central high school nevertheless manages to present
high quality instruction and facilities unequalled
by many larger schools"
II would seem that Catholic Central presents little
in the way Of threat to democratic living IN Chilli

ming made to what can be an important and humane
work.
Ten thousand migrant laborers will work in
Ohio this year, practically all of them in eighteen
counties in the northwest section of the state Most
of these people are native Americans of Mexican
ancestry from Texas Most of them are also Cath
olics. There is evidence of great improvements in
the conditions of the migrants in the past ten fif
teen years but there is also ample evidence that
much remains to be done.
Most of them because of the type Of life they
lead have been deprived of the opportunity for any
but the most elementary schooling Most have never
overcome the barrier of language and have found
it difficult to be accepted integrated into the
community where they happen to be. Language and
their isolation make it difficult for the Church to

Hearings have been held in Washington by the
Senate Labor subcommittee preparatory to writing
bill providing some protective standards for the
migrants. This is audable but the problem is also
local and calls for the local community to accept re-
sponsbility in bettering conditions of people they
now too often look only as an economic necess-
ty.

progress made in the entire
arena of the public, school, the
college, the library and the
stage.
What we should note in this
campaign, in order to halt it, is
that the Communists place "cul-
ture under one roof. They have
shrewdly understood that one
dtUiSion of ncti0ity IN this field
can aid the other. This is indi-
Gated in a sharp manner by V.
j. Jerome, leading figure in the
Red Cultural Commission, in his
report" to the Fifteenth Ma
tional Convention of the Com
munist Party"
BY Their Works
From the Jerome report and
from Red tactics we can observe
that the Communist infiltration
of the schools and colleges is
broader than the mere placing
of Red teachers in those places.
They press also for the planting
of books by Communists or con-
cealed Reds in both public and
school Libraries. The work of
Howard Fast, openly admitted
Communist, is one of their fa-
vorites. II is surprising how
many Libraries carry Fast's
works. When the child receives
this Red authors writings as as
signed reading. or when the
child has ready access to his
works. that Immediately pre-
pares the pupil for further IN
doctrination. Further than that,
when the child hears of acts by
Fast supporting certain Red
causes, he is predisposed in
Fast's favor. After all, have his
works not been played up or rec
commended by the local school Ii
brary?

same way is Shirley Graham's

The Real Presence Congress

The International Eucharistic Congress opens
in Barcelona, Spain, next week. II will close with
great climactic ceremonies on Sunday, June |. Al
ready officials preparing for the great event are
saying that it will be one of the most successful IN
the history of such international gatherings IN
honor of the Blessed Sacrament.
In reality, the Congress is public demonstra-
ton of faith in the Real Presence. Like the Forty
Hours Deyotions held annually in every parish
church. this Congress in Barcelona is an open pro
fession OF belief in the fact that Our Lord Himself
is really and truly present under the appearance of
bread and wine What the Forty Hours Devotion
does on the parish scale the International Euchar-
isc Congress does on the international scale. The
people of each parish come together annually, TO
make a united and public act of faith in the
Blessed Sacrament and to give thanks to Almighty
God for giving His Divine Son to for spiritual
food and TO dwell in midst in the tabernaces OF
our affairs. Once each year we are reminded IN
special way of this tremendous privilege in having
Our Lord Himself with us. II is important that all

moving picture, my oOn Jonn.
In this production we have good
entertainment, presented with
skill. Beyond that, we have the
concealed communist depicted as
he frequently appears in the
American community not as
one with the stamp "Bolshevik"
upon him but as part of the
community which he endeavors
TO undermine for Stain.
II is because of this false APP
pearance of the concealed Stain
lite that the Communists have
made so much progress in this
country in what can be called
"the battle for the American
mind" my Son John" recognizes
this by making its final dramatic
appeal to the college graduates
in its concluding scene.
Under One Roof
Those who wish to defeat the
communists in this battle for the
mind of America have a large
undertaking cut out for them.
During this past month the Reds
have opened up a new campaign
of widespread proportions in
what they call 1.-The cultural
field" They have brought into
that fight on their side certain
poets, actresses of note. writer's
for Hollywood. song writer's and
others. The Daily Worker can
not conceal its pleasure at the
