The strange situation could easily give rise to wise
cracks-along the line of things Mayor Beckett
should do during his brief regime But seriously there is
nothing out of the way in Negro serving mayor Of

Negro Americans have been here long any Amer-

True Southern hospitality, in fact, would be incon-

The boycott is having a ire
mendous effect on public senti-
ment and especially on the bus
company officials.
Although no figures were re-
leased officially, II Is freely ad-
mitted by company executives
that the Negro boycott is cutting
a deep, red hole in company
revenues.
Negroes OF the city joined the
boycott willingly and with almost
holiday spirit. Almost everyone
suffered inconvenience resulting
from the boycott with good grace
and in the spirit OF a worthwhile
and interesting adventure.
Thousands who normally ride
the buses either stayed at home
from work, walked, caught rides
from passing Negro motorists or
sought rides in overworked Negro
taxis.

so often remind you 70 think twice
before shooting from the CUSTOM

at your subject tends TO emphasize
its Importance. to give II stature.
The illustration we selected for
today's column proves this point
quite definitely. A straight-on
shot Of the young miss in her
party dress would have made a
very nice picture. But the picture
taken from the low angle drama
ties the Importance of the occa-

dress part in this importance.

After the arbitrary and illegal
closing of the credit union in
March by the Bureau of Federal

refused to be stampeded and

THE remarkable recovery and

Anything can happen and usually
does with the personal appearance
|of Sanger, Ross and Andree. These
versatile and talented television
and stage stars perform a most un-
usual act with a background comic
novelty and niay be seen at the
Kent and Sussex Fair from July 25
to July 80 as part of the sensational
grandstand show
The act is made up of people,
but such people. The feminine part
of the act is most feminine indeed
all 6 feet Z inches of her. With no
apparent effort she can place one
foot on the floor and at the same
time, place the other foot on the
average ceiling. To some women to
be called loose would be an insult.
In her case it aptly describes her
physical condition
She is amazing but one of her
partners is even more so. He is 8
feet 6 inches tall wearing elevator
shoes. They dance together, frolic
together and perform ar acrobatic
routine which is slightly different,
to say the least.
This is a terrific novelty act
loaded with comedy in which peo-
pie from the audience are brought
on stage to add to the antics of the
lovely young giantess, the normal
size man who makes up the third
member of the act, and the happy
gO-lucky dwarf.
Audiences all over the country
have acclaimed this incongruous
trio who have appeared in the out
showplaces of variety
acts. Television, another medium at
which they are completely at home,
has tried to claim them as its own,
but Sanger, Ross and Andree pre-
fer their first love, ''fn person" ap-
