'Bi-RdcioI Summer Session
Sought at Wilson Teachers

Eleventh and Harvard streets
NV. and Miner is at Georgia
avenue and Euclid streets NV.
See Acceptance.
Wilson's faculty has had o
committee working on prepara-
tions for integration for the last
year. DR.. Hager said, adding he
felt most of the faculty members
were ready to accept the new
policy. He predicted most stu
dents also would accept it
calmly.
DR.. Whitehead said Miners
faculty also has been holding
meetings in preparation for the
end of race bars.
The Miner president said he
would favor immediate merger
of the two colleges, rather than
waiting possibly a year as sug-
gested by DR.. Hager. Merger
would permit a "much-enriched
program" for all students, he
predicted.
Both college heads said they
hope the college eventually can
be combined under one roof.
There have been proposals that
they be housed in a present high
school. but DR.. Whitehead said
he would prefer remaining in the
present buildings for a time if
a new. unified college could be
built instead.
300 tN 400 in Summer.
The two colleges together
have a normal summer school
enrolment of 800 to 400. Com
bined winter enrolment is about
LOO. Miner at present has
about 200 more students than
Wilson.
Wilson's faculty numbers 48
and Miners 81. These figures
include the teachers at Trues-
dell and Monroe Laboratory
Schools, grade schools which are
attached to the colleges for
training purposes.
The laboratory schools do not
hold summer sessions.
Besides the teacher colleges,
the school system has scheduled
summer sessions at 10 white
schools and 13 colored schools,
with an expected enrolment
totaling about 2,500 white and
1900 colored. School officials
have not yet indicated any in
tention to drop race restrictions

The second resolution asks the
appointment of special inter-
racial commission by the bishop

partments of our diocese and
with the trustees of the church

The resolution "reaffirms our
belief that discrimination be-

race or color, is contrary to the
spirit Of Christianity and that
our diocese in every phase Of its
life must continually re-examine
its practice in the light of its
Christian principles"
The council. with more than
200 laymen and clergymen at
tending, is holding it's final ses-
sions today in st. Mary's Epis-
copal Church, North Twenty

today he will seek to have the

ploring the possibility of combin-

both schools under one roof. He
voiced doubt about the feasibility
of this step, however.
DR.. Hager's suggestions were
indorsed, by DR.. Matthew j.
Whitehead, president of Miner.
Both Wilson and Miner are
operated by the District public
school system. Segregation in
the entire school system is now
expected to end with the open
ing of the fall term September
13, but it will be up to the Board
of Education to decide whether
the teacher college proposals can
take effect.
DR.. Hager said he had not yet
talked with top school officials
about ending race bars for the
teacher college summer sessions.
IT'D personally like to see quite
few colored students here this
summer" he told a reporter,
adding he thought some Wilson
students also might like to take
Miner courses not available at
Wilson.

of the two colleges. He said to-

Immediately for such a merger,
but he added he doubted if this

Accomplishing the merger
might take a year, he said, be-
cause of problems in combining
the two separate study courses.

dent said he hopes the two
institutions can begin a CO.

John in his car into Berlin's Soviet
sector the evening of July 20
Thrice married, author of a book
on hot trumpet playing and patron
of Kurfuerstendamm gay spots,
Wohlgemuth has not risked a re.
turn to his lucrative Western med
ical practice.
Gle and dapper, DR.. John is
treated as a distinguished guest
by the Soviet zone regime and ap-
pears to relish the Vests conSter-
nation. He and ex-Field Marshal
Friedrich Paulus, defeated Nazi
commander at Stalingrad, are now
propaganda pals in the Red peace
camp"
Paulus is writing to survivors OF
the German officer corps in the
Bonn republic, inviting them to do
their utmost to kill the EDO and
to agitate for reunion with East
Germany on RusSia's terms.
Paulus bangles the prospect Of
a new national army and harks
back to historical periods when
German power in Europe was
based on alliance with Russia. In
telligence sources estimate East
Germany'S armed forces at pres
ent at 10000 men.
DR.. John is expected to become
a weekly commentator on the big
Communist radio station DeutSch-
landSender, with his political mes
sageS beamed at West Germany.
His song is pitched in a different
key than PauluS', but it means
the same thing for Russia.
He declares former Nazis are
back in governmental power in
Bonn - the percentage actually
is less than in East Germany -
and that incorrigible German mil
ltaristS are plotting with the United
States to attack the Soviet Union.
