All 43 Are Rescued
From Lifeboats After
Ship Splits in Two
ex ths As,oeiuted Pra,,

NEW YORK. Dec. 28.-Rescue
vessels took the last of 43 per-
sons from open lifeboats on icy,
wind-laShed North Atlantic seas
yesterday. hours after the sur
vivors' freighter-the Swedish
ship Oklahoma-had split in two.
The Oklahoma was carrying a
cargo of woodpulp, newsprint,
steel and miscellaneous goods.
Her destination was Baltimore.
The dramatic rescue opera
tions, hampered by a heavy sea,
were completed by the United
States Military Sea Transport
ship Bluejacket and the Finnish
freighter Orion.
Both ships then continued
toward their European destina-
tions. But the Bluejacket went
only about Is miles before huge
waves made it pull up to ride
out the storm.
Hove to due to mountainous
seas and severe Storm" the ship
meSSaged the military Sea
Transport Service in New York.
The Bluejacket, was first on
the scene after the Oklahoma
sent out distress signals. The
American veSsel-skippered by
Capt. Dunward j. LarSon-took
36 of the survivors aboard and
reported all were in good condi-
ton.
The seven on the Orion could
also be assumed to be unhurt, a
Coast Guard spokesman said.
The 43 survivors, including one
stewardess, were the entire crew
of the Oklahoma and the only
persons aboard her. The Coast
Guard said all are believed to
be Europeans.
A message from the blue
jacket quoted the Oklahoma s
skipper, Capt. Robert Kutsch-
bach, as saying the vessel broke
in two about midships. The
crew gathered on the aft section,
but had to abandon it when the
engine started taking water.
Search to Continue.
Efforts to find the ship later
were unsuccessful. Capt. Kutsch-
bach meSSaged the ships general
freight agents, Furness-W Witty g.
Co., of New York, that it had
probably sunk. However, a Coast
Guard spokesman said the search
would continue today.
Capt. Kutschbach gave the
position of the Oklahoma - a
5.900-ton vessel-400 miles off
Newfoundland.
The last survivors were taken
from the fourth life boat around
3:45 am. yesterday. nearly IL
hours after the Oklahoma radioed
it had split.
A spokesman for Furness-
Witty said the Oklahoma was
owned by the transatlantic
Steamship Co.. Ltd. of Goteborg.
Although no details had been re-
ceived yet. he said, the ships

part of the definition, though, SO
have decided to jot it down right
here: Thanksgiving the act OF
giving thanks; the expression Oh
gratitude, or the acknowledgements
of kindnesses or mercies received;
particularly the rendering OF
thanks to God.
Honestly, think that's a Won
derful definition. Especially that

Getting
Along
BY LAUREN WHITE

NEW YORK, (GlobaD - Jackie
Robinson is being severity criticized
for deferring to Birmingham, Ala
bamas racial segregation laws re-
Gently. He allowed his three white
players to be benched when his
team played there not. long ago.
Those who criticize him ar saying
that he should have cancelled the
game in protest against those laws.
Without expressing agreement or
opposition to Jackie's action, l
would like to call the readers at
tention to some observations on
deferring:
Deferring is as much part of
life as dominating, and many times
favorable results can be obtained
by deferring while disastrous req
suits can be obtained by attempt
ing to dominate. This is true in all
life. Even a grain of corn knows
this. When a grain strives to reach
the topsoil and sunlight, it may
meet, on its journey, pebble or
some other obstruction. Instead of
wasting its energy on something it
canot move it will defer - go
around. And by doing so, that grain
of corn can fulfill a useful mission.
This same thing is true in varying
degrees in our every day life and
in every field of endeavor.
Since we see evidences of the
wisdom of deferrnig at times in so
many other instances, it is difficult
to understand why so much criti-
cisnr should be hurled against
Jackie Robinson when he deferred
TO Alabama's racial segregation
laws. No one complained when he
took insults and abuse when he
first acme intot he major leagues.
If he had not compromised and
deferred on many issues at that
time, he could not have paved the
way for other Negroes in major
league baseball.
Your reporter is bitterly against
all forms of segregation and dis
elimination based on race and
color However, l am conscious Of
the fact that all life demands COM
promises at times. Progress de-
mands that we defer as we'll as
dominate and in order to get in a
position to dominate, we must
often defer.
Everything in life and nature
teaches us this.

EDUCATION
NOT ES

NEW YORK, (GLOBAL)- The
trend toward the more practical
application of knowledge and at
titudes of students and teachers,
and the corelating of learning with
world conditions and business
trends. is more and more notice
able among educational institutions
and the organization connected
with them.
In Buffalo, New York, DR.. Paul
H. Appleby of the Maxwell gradu-
ate School of Citizenship at SYRIA
cuse University, speaking before
session of the joint convention
of the National Education Associa-
ton and the National Council OF
Geography Teachers on Morality
in Government" urged the nations
educators to help clear the con-
fusion about politics by giving
students thorough understanding
of the workings of democratic gov
ernment.
Down in the Mississippi Delta,
four-year-old Mississippi Vocation
al College inaugurated it's first
President, DR.. James Herbert
White, and used as its theme for
the week-long celebration, "Bal-
ancing Agriculture with Industry
Through Higher Education"
Here in New York City, the
New York University School of
Commerce, Accounts and Finance,
held it's third annual Deans Day
Homecoming for alumni. Featur-
ed was day-long program of in
formal panel discussions, and at an
afternoon session, Alfred Wolf,
class of 1929, vice president of the
Standard Oil Company of Ohio,
spoke on "The Coming Test for
Management Principles"
In Brooklyn, Beta Lambda Chap
ter of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity
continues to hammer away on two
fronts-"Bigger and Better Busi-
ness and Social Action" The
fraternity has kept alive its in
terest in these fields on a national
basis, with a view to clearer un-
derstanding on the part of its mem
bers and the community at large
of their responsibilities in. these
areas, and opportunities for de-
velopment. The Beta Lambda
Chapter this week outlined it's pro-
gram on these two fronts at a pro-
gram presented as a part of the
regular morning service at Zion
Baptist Church.
These activities indicate a def
mite trend away from the Ivory
tower" concept of education and
fraternal activity in the past, and
augur we'll for the future integra-
ton of students into the political,
business, social, civic, and relig-
ious life of their respective COM
munities.

@. How can / check nosebleed?

A. Pressure on the upper lip at
the outer edge of each nostril
will very often stop bleeding OF
the nose. A piece of ice rolled in
cotton, or cotton soaked in ice
water, may be inserted into the
nostril and pressure applied from
the outside this also proves. effec-
tive. Another method is to sit erect
with arms raised above the head,
and the head thrown back slightly.
Q. How can 1 keep fish from
breaking when frying it?
A. Put the pieces of fish in the
hot fat with the skin side up, and
brown well before turning. In this
way there will be no possibility OF
the fish breaking up, as sometimes
happens.

BRUSH-ON BEAUTY MAS
QUE: Over and over again you
hear women saying that they
are $50 tired" that they have
so little time to attend to the
business Of keeping their faces
and figures in tip top shape.
More women ought to become
aware of a short time beauty
ritual that does the thing for the
face that exercise does for the
body. It whips up circulation,
has a tendency to mould con-
tours, and does good job of
helping tighten muscles. Brush
on some Of the pink connection
over your face, throat and eve
lids. It'll dry quickly and then
you can easily wash it off with
tepid water. You'll find your
skin will glow, feel firmer. and
your ten-minute beauty pickup
will amaze you with it's results.
YOU CAN'T WIN: If you are
a woman who reads beauty news
regularly and abideS by what
you've read, interpreted it to your
own needs. you know that spe-
ciflc costume colors call for
specific lipstick shades. So off
you go and buy them. You wind
up with about six or seven lip
sticks scattered in your purse, on
your dressing table and in your
dresser drawers. When you need
the specific shade for the specific
costume it's never around. A
handy little helper in this re-
spect is the prismatic lipstick
