which the United States will have

The same official asked, Where
does that leave Japan? If the
Chinese overrun all Korea how
long viii it be before they cross
the straits and go for Japan"
The President had some strong
words for American policy with
respect to Japan too. He said:
The problem is simply this:
because the Communists are
threatening the world, the United
States wants Japan to be a strong
bulwark In the Far East. The peril
is so great that the United States
forgets Japan was an aggressor
nation very recently. Or else the
United States has deceived herself
into believing few years of occu-
patton changed the japanese.
THE Japanese have not
changed. They still are ambitious
to dominate all of Asia and they
have not become pro-American
either. They realize they failed last
time and they are reviewing their
mistakes so they will not make the
same ones again"
He said, ITO build up a strong
front against Communist and other
aggression--and by that l mean
The Japanese-the United States
should strengthen Korea militar-
Ily as she strengthened Japan"
He said this would achieve the
double purpose Of blocking the
Communists and "act as a deter
rent to Japan's secret aims"
The President said of the broad
r. question, at appears our allies

DRAMATICS STAR

Although basketball is the main

time Shelva Jean has other inter-
eSts of equal Importance when the
"dribble derby" season comes to A
close. She is an avid dramatics
performer and humbly states that
she has been encouraged to
further her study in this field.
She has been active in most of
the school dramatics Productions
and usually ends up with the lead
ing role.
When not engaged in hardwood
activities or on the stage for act
ing purposes-she is likely to be
found entering beauty contests
She represented Williams High
School during the last Yam Queen
contest and was reported to have
been near the top in the final
selections.
In actually the only thing the
Young performer recommends
herself for is job as a sales
woman.
'The only thing I can do worth
anything is sell things-it is in
l%mcnted the pretty young cage
star.
She usually wins all honors at
he school when any sales cam
paign is underway. Her quick
smile and personality are her
greatest assets and qualify her as
a top-notch salesperson off the
hardwood; however, it is on the
hardwood that she has done the
excellent Job of the season. She
has caused opposing coaches many
an uncomfortable night as she
calmly dropped in basket after
basket to lead her mates to vic
tory.
The high spot in the entire
summary is that the young whiz
will he around another year on
the Columbus County cage scene.
She is only a junior this year.
It's a distressing bit of infOrma-
ton for rival coaches to bear:
however, Coach Colombo is happy
about the entire chain of events
it is always nice to have a record
holder on your side.
