December 19. From the looks OF
things, we are having quite a few

NEW YORK, (GlobaD = It's
trading time in the baseball mar
ket, time for the usual seasonal
juggle in which second place teams
plan their team personnel with the
pennant in mind; and second divi-
sion teams lay plans to try to pull
out of the cellar.
1t looks like Junior Gillian OF
the Dodgers is up for grabs, and
he might wind up in Cincinnati.
Ray Jablonski has gone to Gin
cinnati from st. Louis, but we
wouldn't be surprised at all if Ray
wound up in Brooklyn, since the
Dodgers just got rid of the best
glove man who ever graced the bot
corner on any team-Billy Cox.
We understand Ray isn't exactly
3,
but he carries a heavy bat.
One- question that has come UP
in the barber shops and on the cor
ners around here, however, is what
will happen to Jackie Robinson?
Certainly the sentimental reason
for keeping Jackie on the team
no longer holds good and he does
not provide the spark he once did
for the team. Furthermore, all of
the National League teams have
Negro players, so there's no ice
breaking job to be done. But some
of the fellows seem to feel that
could be, Jackie's mission for the
next two years, Chat is, if he does
not retire.. He could break ice in
the American League particularly
in some areas where he could
really be a part of the new cru
Sade - Washington, for instance.
Then, of course, there is Detroit
and there is Boston. Jackie may
not be as fast as he once was, and
hhe may have outlived his useful
ness in Brooklyn, but he will all
ways symbolic the ultimate in
sportsnanShip and clean living,
and so, would be an asset any
where.

GETTING
ALONG

NEW YORK, (GlobaD. One of
the reasons coIored Americans oc-
cupy the lowest rung on the lao
der of American life is that we
represent the wrong kind of sym
Dol in the minds of other Ameri-
cans. According to .Winston's die
sionary a symbol is something that
stands for, recalls, or represents
something else, not by exact re-
semblance, but by suggestion or as
sociation in thought.
Throughout the years, all too
many Negroes have been smybols
ot poverty, ignorance, unprepared-
ness, emotional instability and
childishness in the minds of too
many. 1t hasn't been entirely the
fault of Negroes, nor has it been
the fault of others. For years,
powerful forcse, for obvious rea-
sons, have created conditions that
would make Negroes appear dis
advantageously in the eyes of 9TH
ers.
A change is taking place in the
world these days. The day of no
opportunity has changed to a day
of a few opportunities. We can all
change that to a day of many op~
portunities by standing for differ
ent types of symbols from which
we now stand. If Americas dark
minority should suddenly become
the most trustworthy, most indus
trious, most honest and most in
telligent group of people in Amer
lea, we could achieve first class
citizenship, and pretty fast. How
ever, if we became symbols of
trustworthiness, indu seriousness,
honesty, and intelligence, no power
on earth could keep us down.
1t is paradoxicala but true, that
the more advanced a civilization
become, the more its members are
to rely on symbols. This isn't a per-
feet situation, but at times it is
practical one. Short cuts are
needed by which we can form con-
clusions. Symbols can be very
handy at times, but it can take
years to firmly established a SYM
bol in the minds of the public.
Any thinking group of people
who have been consigned to the
lowest rung on the ladder of life
in their country, should put forth
superhuman effort to be symbols
of Worthiness. AS desegration pro-
grams become more effective, op-
portunities to become symbols of
Worthiness will be greter. We
should al be- on. the alert to take
advantage of those opportunities.
