opening of the 83rd Congress
delegation, headed by Walter
the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People,
that in his view the Senate is a
continuing body and as such is
not required to adopt rules at the
beginning of each new Congress
as does the House of Representa-
tives.
The delegation consisted of rep
resentatives of SO national organi-
cations comprising the Leader
ship Conference of Civil Rights
which has been spearheading the
drive for a change in Senate
Rule %. Under this rule the vote
of "a senators is required to shut
off a filibuster. Civil rights advo-
Gates want a rule which will per-
nit limitation of debate by ma
jority vote.
Cleveland Republican Asks Aid
John p. Kellogg, Republican
member of the City Council of
Cleveland, opened the half-hour
conference with a statement urg-
ing Senator Taft lin the interest
of Negro Republicans to take the
leadership in fighting for a change
in Rule % to enable the passage
Of civil rights legislation"
In response, the Republican
Senate leader asserted that the
party caucus, upon his recommen-
dation, had decided that the SEN
ate is a continuing body, and, ac-
cordingly. there would be no
change in the rules at this time.
He admitted that the present re-
quirement for "a votes to invoke
cloture is too stringent and
should be reduced to a lesser num-
Der, but added that he was I'M
willing to attempt a change at
this time. He went on to say that
he believed the "a votes for clo-
ture could be obtained, 'if the
senators are sincere and interest
ed" after the policy and program
on civil rights have been estab-
lished by President-elect Dwight
D. Eisenhower and the Republican
policy committee.
Clarence Mitchell, director of
the NAACP Washington Bureau,
observed that it has been impos-
sible to get the necessary "a votes.
According to his estimate, based
on past votes and commitments, a
maximum of SO senators in the
s3rd Congress can be counted on
to vote for cloture on civil rights
measures
Disavows Dixiecrat Tie-up
Senator Taft expressed dis
agreement with the point made
by Councilman Theodore Berry of
Cincinnati that the Republican
Party by adopting new rules
under Taft's leadership had an OPP
portunity to stop bargaining with
the Dimecrats and make a liberal
record free of the threat of the
filibuster. He said that the
southerners did not always vote
with him and that he did not ex-
pect their support for his welfare
program.
Joseph Rauh, counsel of the
United Automobile Workers, CLIO,
who prepared an exhaustive brief
holding that the Senate Is not a
continuing body. challenged Sen
ator Taft's contention, that the
Senate does not have the same
obligation as the House to adopt

with Beverly, the number one
team of the tournament with
24-1 record.
At $3.50, Caldwell's Redskins
will be pitted against the num-
Der two team, Woodsfield with a
20-2 record for the season. Dur
ing the year, Caldwell was
downed by Woodsfield 56-44.

Caldwell hit for 20 points per
quarter as they turned back the
Monr.e county runner-up. The
Redskins entered the tournament
with the poorest record of the
nine teams, but found Hannibal
no match after the first quarter.
The RedSkin starting five
showed a varied scoring range
from Christopher's 10 points to
Walton's "a. In between was
Tilton with l3, Ditch IL, and
Safigan IL.
For Hannibal, ByerS, Crawford

for the losers best efforts.
Dexter City played a valiant
game against Vincent'S powerful
Bobcats and carried the game
until, midway in the third quar-
ter when the victors put their
fast-break to good advantage.
The Tigers led thruout the
first period, and staged a nip
and-tuck second stanza before
trailing 1929 at halftime.
Unfortunately the lighting sys-
tenn failed just prior to inter
mission, causing 45-minute de-
lay, and it seemed that Dexter
cooled down during this inter-
val.
With the score knotted for the
last time at 37-37 in the third
quarter, Dexter switched to man.
for-man and Vincent rolled to a
6l-44 lead at the end of three.
Buzz Sawyer, Vincent's color
ed ace, connected for 18 points,
while Don Thesis and Vernon
Hanson had ii each for Dexter.

OLD WORLD VILLAGE

DUBUQUE, IA. In a pictur-
esoue little valley near here lies a
tiny, old world village: St. Donatus.
About 1910 a small colony of
immigrants from Luxembourg set
tied in Iowa and tried to duplicate
in every way the architecture, GUS
toms. dress and religious habits
which they had left behind in their
native land.
The old world village now has
become an attraction, for tourists
and vacationers. Visitors from
cities east of the Mississippi reach
the village of legends by taking
Highway "a. fast and scenic route.
In its early days, Iowa was
Mecca not for the farmer but for
the miner. The district lead drew
attention of lead producers all over
the world with special interest in
the duchy of LuXemburg, where
that industry had been long prac.
ticed.
The immigrants quarried their
own stone from the sharp bluffs Of
Niagara limestone. The blocks in
the home foundations average two
and-a-half feet in thickness and
they stand like Gibralter even to-
day. Above photo shows ruins of
the beautiful limestone the Luxem-
burg settlers quarried for their
buildings.
Tetes des Mortes ("Heads of the
Dead"D stream winds through the
beautiful wooded valley.
The first outdoor Way of the
Cross in America, which now at
tracts hundreds to st. Donatus on
Good Friday each year. was built
in 1861 under Fr. Michael Flam.
mang's direction. Fourteen beauti-
ful brick shrines were built in a
winding pattern up the hill behind
the church. On the summit stands
a little chapel built in 1885 as a
memorial to the pioneer priest.
Many of the present day inhabi.
tants are descendants of the orig
inal settlers. The visitor to st.
Donatus is struck by the strange
contrast between the heritage of
the past: old houses, weathered
church, tiny cemetery with soft
gold fungus covered tomestones--
and the present: modern gas sta
