Gently in the city of Philadelphia,
Rev. T S Harten, ST. vice
president Of the National Baptist
Convention Of America, Inc. urg-
ed that an inspection tour of
Mizpah be made since the con
ventIon has repeatedly endorsed
the development and he said, AS
leaders we are duty bound to
know first hand, the progress of
Mizpah So we can report back 10
our members not on the basis Of
hear say but what we have seen
with our own eyes The propo-
sition of making this "evaluating
town" was met with a great deal
of enthusiasm.
Rev. Harten issued a statement
upon his return, Il have been to
Mizpah personally on several oc-
casions more recently than per-
haps many of our leaders, but
the continued growth and i'm
provements still astound me l
know human failings and because
of this I was determined not to
press my opinion on our self APP
pointed committee but / wanted
them to see for themselves and
the result was truly gratifying, -
Rev. J. Raymond Henderson,
pastor of the Second Baptist
church of Los Angeles, Californ-

blot was developing a project
that could only be extremely adj

to report my personal findings

Rev. Baxter Matthews. pastor Of
the Union Baptist church of Bal
timore Maryland was obviously
moved during the tour because
he had purchased lots without
ever seeing them and relying
solely on Mr.. Rathblott's integrity
to choose a location for him. In
his opinion of view, he said, Our
leaders did not exaggerate one
iota as to the fairness and good
practices of our friend Rathblott,
There were times that I had some
misgivings of having purchased
land miles away from my home

You can imagine my amazement
to find a progressive and grow

THE FAMILY
R0UNDTABLE"
BY ELGIVA A. BALL

Miss Ball. a Brooklyn school
teacher who has had extensive
study and experience in the
field of family relations, will
discuss actual problems and
case histories. having to do
with parent child relation
ships and family living. Let
ters may be addressed TO Miss
Ball at the Global office, Hotel
Theresa, 1850 It'll Avenue, NYC
Dear Miss Ball
Barbara and | are friends and
we are both in the ninth grade
| go around with her sometimes,
but she is always doing some
things | do not think are right.
She has only few friends and
this may be the reason,
Barbara combs her long pretty
hair practically every five or ten
minutes. She likes the boys but
they make fun OF her because
she keeps her hair partly hang
ing over her face She always
brings love stories to school,
reads them in class and never
pays attention to the lesson.
Sometimes she will give a class
mate permission to read one Of
her stories and then snatch it
back when he is only half way
through. She rarely says please"
or may T. she just takes.
However, Barbara gives the inn
preston that she can be nice
when she wants to. Some of us
in the class want to know if you
think we could help her and still
not hurt her feelings. What can
we do to wake her up?
Eva-Mississippi
Dear Eva:
Your letter sounds as if Bar
bara has been neglected by her
parents somewhat and needs a
lot of help. By working together,
you and your classmates can as
sist her. By all means, get your
teachers advice, especially that
of the guidance teacher, if your
school has one. Barbara must be
made to see how important it is
to study and to prepare for life
Then a demonstration on becom-
ing hair-styles and how to set
ones hair might be helpful. Per-
haps a gab-fest on dating and
manners in public would reach
her.
Giving her a dose of her own
medicine also may help to i'm.
prove the situation, but just re-
member to explain afterward thai
you were retaliating. Too, you
might use a brutally frank APP.

AsMary|and Wrestler

Mike Sandusky, who could be-
come Maryland's first three-let-
ter athlete since Tommy Mont
C4D, made his wrestling debut a
successful and important one
last night at Ritchie Coliseum.
The 235-pound football tackle,
who also is a weightman on the
track team, scored a 5-3 decision
over the University Of Virginia's
tough Henry Jordan to give
Maryland a 1879 victory in its
wrestling opener. A decision
against Sandusky would have
tied the match and a pin by Jor-
dan would have lost for the
Marylanders.
The Terp freshman team beat
the Virginia Frosh. 1856. in the
preliminary. The Wake Forest
match. which was to have been
Maryland's opener last Saturday.
has been rescheduled for Janu-
