OPERATION ON

NEW YORK - (ANP) - II
the story in local daily is to be
taken for what it is worth, Roy
Campanella's trouble before he
signed his new contract for
SIS, 900, was not so much his arm
operation as the operation on his
pocketbook. Roy was said to be
dissatisfied with the salary in his
original 1852 contract, said to be
$4,000.
For baseball's Mr.. Catcher,
that's no dough. The second best
catcher, Berra (Dickey-made)
tops that so naturally Roy ques-
toned just how he would have
to perform this year to rate sal
airy he felt commensurate with
his work. Last year when Roy
banged all those runs and hit the
ball at a merry clip, he got some
thing like $4,000. Folks in the
know say he wanted SIS, 900 now

University OF N. c.
Bars Mixed Dances

CHAPEL HILL, NC. - (ANP)
- The presence of Negro stu
dents at the Law School of the
University of North Carolina may
force an abandonment of the an
nual traditional Law School
dance.
A majority of the law students
voted last week to hold the dance
despite knowledge that Negro
students might be eligible to at
tend. However, the university
quickly Stymied any belief that
the dance would be mixed. The
defender of Southern traditions
again was Chancellor Robert B.
House.
In a letter to Henry Brands,
dean of the Law School, Chancel-
lor House said the university had
ruled that no mixed functions
shall be held on the university
campus. That ruling is in confor-
nifty with trustee regulations, he
added.
The students now have the al
Tentative of either having the
dance off the campus or cancell-
ing it They haven't decided yet
what course 10 follow.
J. Knox Walker, president OF
the Law School association, said
that the association decided to
hold the referendum because OF
the color line involved.
Although results showed that
the students favored holding the
dance, they did not mean that
they were in favor of non-segre-
gated dances.
Some las or So per cent voted
and slightly more than half OF
these favored the dance, but the
results did not give too clear a
picture of how the students really
feel about the issue.

hALElGd, NC. - (ANP) -
Throughout the state the scare
bombings of new Negro homes
and "klan" floggings of Negro and
Whites, has been on the increase
AS the Klan-spawned violence
grips county after county, fear
has repeatedly produced the in
crease in ammunition sale, and
neighbors greet after dark callers
with gun in hand.
In Whiteville, the list of I'M
solved floggings grew despite
prison terms given three White
men several weeks ago who
threatened to "Klux" a neighbor
unless he got rid of a Negro ten
ant on his farm. Four floggings
have been reported here since
October.
Three days later in Whiteville,
robed Klansmen blindfolded Clay
ton Seller, a 28-year-old white
farmer, and logged him. Sellers
told a reporter, I'D ruther been
dead than beat like that" Only
five days earlier, another farmer,
H. D. Best, had been "Kluxed'
with ''Klan like" beating.

FORMER FOE,
NOW FRIEND OF
FEPC

NEW YORK - (ANP) - An
executive vice president of the
New York Board of Trade, M. D.
Griffith, who fought to prevent
passage of New York's Anti-Dis-
elimination Law, last week prais-
ed the law and expressed a desire
to see Congress pass a similar
one.
Speaking at a luncheon-meet-
ing sponsored by the Manhat-
tan Council of the State Com
mission Against Discrimination,
Griffith said in part:
81 am one of those who was
against the Anti-Discrimination
law when it was first introduced
and worked hard to prevent its
passage. Now after six years OF
operation, particularly as it is so
ably enforced, ! find that our
fears have not been realized, but
much genuine progress has been
achieved.
eff the Congress would pass a
similar Federal, and if we could
have the quality of administra-
ton that we have here in New
York, l am sure that our friends
of the South would have nothing
TO fear. On the contrary, / think
they would discover in such a
law - very good friend.
