We had q fine day on the
water last Saturday in company
with Mr.. Paul Hatch, Calvert
Bowie and Buck Russell, trying
for largemouth bass in the ponds
of the King and Queen Club
below Tappahannock, Va. How
ever, except for the crappie, the
fish would not cooperate. We
did catch one bluegill, but got
nary a strike from bass. Bowie
had one smash at popping bug
in the morning. but missed 1T,
and that was the extent of &C
ton as far as the bass were
concerned. We tried live bait.

fishing, all to no avail. 1t was

One of our trout fishing
friends. who fishes Rock Creek
great deal in company with his
father, reports a near accident
which we think worthy of re-
porting here. On the west side
Of Rock Creek, about 200 feet
upstream from the bridge over
the creek on Route % between
Norbeck and Rockville, Md, a
drainage ditch comes into the
creek. At its mouth is q delta
Of muck or quicksand which is
dangerous. Our friends father
became mired in it up to his
hips, lost his balance, and as
the water is about 2 feet deep
there, might have had serious
trouble had he not fortunately
toppled toward the bank, which.
he was able to reach. He says
he was still sinking when this
happened. However, he was able
to extricate himself with only a
bad wetting, which, of course,
spoiled his days fishing. Watch
out for this when you fish this
stretch.
Although the season for duck
hunting is long past, we have
been spending some pleasant
evenings with the finest book on
wildfowl decoys we have ever
come across. 1t is the second
edition of "Wildfowl Decoys," by
Joel Barber. 1t tells just about
everything that can be told
about decoys, their history, re-
gional variations, how to make
them, paint and rig them. From
the press of Dover Publications,
Inc. of New York, and selling
for $3.50 per copy it is now avail
able at your favorite book store.
1t is beautifully illustrated and
written with a warm understand
ing of wildfowl shooting and the
art of making a decoy to lure
the wild birds to the gunner.
We are enjoying it to the utmost.
It carries lao illustrations. four

down by South Africa's National
list rulers. AS the Africans are
moved to their new homes their
old homes will be flattened by
bulldozers. The cleared ground
eventually will be turned into in
dustrial sites for white investors.
The South African National
Congress (ANC), which is about
the only articulate Negro body
claiming mass membership, has
vowed "to oppose the removal at
every stage regardless Of the con-
sequences"
Its statement warned that the
government action will produce
IAN extremely dangerous and cx-
plosive situation"
The ANC, claiming nearly 100,-

wing and nationalist leadership.
The leaders have wrapped the re-
sistance plans in secrecy, but if
court appeals fail they propose a
strike of sympathetic African
workers in johannesburg, the coun-
! try's industrial and commercial

sociologists, and opposition poll
ticians and newspapers have crit
icized the johannesburg scheme
as too harsh.
They have complained it will de-
strOy the right of non-whites to
own property and destroy good
homes together with bad ones. The
critics also have attacked the gov
eminent for refusing to consult
with the beople being moved.
The Africans are being shifted
from four slum towns in the west
ern area Of johannesburg. where
they have lived for so years, to
the new townships, mushrooming
y miles outside the white popu-
lated city. The new townships
will be about four times as big
as the condemned western areas.
The government case, as out
lined by the Native Affairs Min
lister, II. F. Verwoerd, is that the
shifts are in the interests Of Jo-
hannesburg white and black alike.
The Africans, he said, will be get
ting better homes and services at
lower controlled rentals besides
greater recreation and transporta-
ton facilities.
But the population shift involves
deeper issues than straightforward
slum clearance The Strijdom gov
eminent will withdraw the Afri-
cans right to own property and
land outside their own specially al
lotted reserves. In the new town
ships of Meadowlands and Diepl-
kloof they will be allowed only to
rent houses. Other non-white
slum towns bordering the western
areas are being left untouched be-
cause they are owned by the Jo-
hannesburg City Council and so
carry no property rights.
To resettle the Africans at
Meadowlands and Dieplkoof will
take four to five years. The gov
eminent sees it as the pilot project
in drive toward complete sepa-
rate racial compartments for its
100000 whites, 100000 Bantu
Africans, 100000 colored or
mixed blood folks, and $4,000
Asians.
The Resettlement Board says no
troubles are expected when the
first few hundred families are
shifted Feb. IL. These families,
now living in buffer zones between
the western areas and white areas,
have rereived removal notices.
Government trucks will carry
them to new homes, which are SER
weed with water, sewerage, trans
portation, shops, and schools.
AS the Africans leave, BULLDOG
-eTs will crush their homes out of
existence to prevent squatting.
Thousands of these homes are
crude shelters. Thousands of 9TH
ers-a Johannesburg City Council
survey valued them at more than
three million dollars-are brick
structures which would be priced
anywhere. About all ire hopeless
ly overcrowded. Whole families
often live in single rooms.

Wants To Mix Freely
Through her interest in the as
pirations of young people, and the
good will spread by her presence,
I rincess Margaret's visit could do
much to strengthen ties which are
being forged through federation
movements in these islands.
Concern that the Princess's visit
will be hedged by officialdom and
that she will not meet the peoples
Of the islands have been answered
officially from Buckingham Palace.
1t has been stated categorically
that Princess Margaret wants to
mix as freely as possibly with the
people during her five-week visit
and that she is anxious to meet as
many representative members of
TIE different communities as she
can. Local committees, of course,
will make arrangements in their
own communities.
On this her first Commonwealth
visit alone, Princess Margaret will
land at many points on the great
crescent of islands which curve
across the Caribbean, linking the
two mainland territories of British
Honduras and British Guiana.
She will travel some 1000 miles
between the islands on the Royal
yacht Britannia which brought

Howard u.To
Launch S25o,ooo
Fund-Raising
Campaign
President Mordecai
Johnson Calls Upon
Alumni To Support
First Drive Since 1914

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Howard
University will launch a national
Embarrassing campaign for $780,
600 beginning Tuesday, February
l, it was announced today by DR..
Mordecai w. Johnson, president
of the University. Funds raised
during the drive, which will con-
tinue through June Is, will be
used for scholarship purposes.
Otto McClarrin, director of public
relations at Howard, will direct
the campaign.
This will be the first major ap-
peal for funds by the University
since 1914.
Prior to 1914" DR.. Johnson
said, 1--WE were on our way to raise
a substantial scholarship fund in
the University through the gifts
of alumni. DR.. A. J. Blackburn,
who is now dean of students. was
then our field agent. He set out
to secure an average gift of $500
per alumnus, and before long had
secured individual gifts ranging
up to $4,000 for the endowment
of a permanent scholarship and
student loan fund.
"In 1948 we renewed our efforts
to establish a direct relationship
with alumni. We felt that our
alumni were capable of building up
a scholarship and loan fund of in
spring proportions" DR.. Johnson
said "Our field agent, Mr.. w.
w. Blocker, was the leader of this
effort, and he was gust beginning
to get an encouraging response
from the alumni when he took sick
and died in the field.
Now we are about to begin
again this important undertaking"
DR.. Johnson continued, land it is
important beyond any words which
we can say"
At Howard, where some $780,
900 is spent annually for scholar
ships, only about $25,00O for this
purpose is received through con-
tributiors. The remaining $4,000
is accrued by setting aside a por-
tion of tuition fees for scholarship
purposes.
"All over the university and col
lege world this is considered to be
an unsOund method of producing
scholarship funds" DR.. Johnson
said. Already the tuition funds
constitute only very small part
of the total cost of maintaining the
University, and it is everywhere
considered desirable that all of
these funds should go into the
maintenance of the cost of the high
quality of education, and that none
of them should be taken away
from this primary purpose for
scholarship undertakings"
University officials estimate
that some 10000 alumni will be
contacted during the four and one
half month campaign. AS result
of this estimate the goal has been
set at $250,00O or an average of
$25 per alumnus.
If we can raise this amount
from the number of alumni con-
tacted during this years drive"
DR.. Johnson said, 1T will serve as
an inspiration for all of our alumni
who | am sure will increse this
figure during the second year"
DR.. Johnson pointed out that
although this years campaign will
be an effort by individual alumni,
he hopes that Howard alumni
