Fully lntegrated

In interviews with students
at West Virginia State Col
lege the Times was told 1--WE
came here because it is the
best school available for us
in this area. There is another
college in Charleston but at
that time it was not accred-
tied.
Whites now make up a
third of the enrolment at
West Virginia State College,
'formly for Negroes only.
Only one school has no
Negro students. There are
few Negroes in it's vicinity.
How has it worked? AL
most without a hitch. 1t is
now considered routine.
The students went through
a brief adjustment period
w h C h lasted only few
weeks. White and Negro stu
dents a re completely inte-
grated in every phase of the
college community's life. 1t
is significant to note how the
townsfolk have accepted the
transition. A good indication
was provided when A and T
College played football at
Institute in October. The
game was sponsored by the
Lions Club and one of the
bands appearing at the game
was the local high school.

it lost the rest of the reserva-

Hotel Manager Joseph Mes

The Common Enemy!

There's probably no one in
the United States who has
not had a member of his or
her family, or friend or neigh
Dor, injured in a traffic acct
dent. Last year, this is what
traffic accidents did in the
United States: killed $4,000
people, injured som con e
every 25 seconds, cost an esti-
mated $4.4 billion in medical
bills, property loss and other
expense.
There were nearly 10 mil
lion traffic accidents in the
United States in 1854.
What Can You Do About It?
T. ur S day, December 1,
1866, will be the second an
nual ESD Day., or "Safe
Driving Day.. This year, as
last, the purpose of SD Day
is to show that motorists and
pedestrians can reduce traffic
accidents by their own ac-
tons. The first SD Day, last
December, produced a reduc-
ton in the national toll of
deaths and injuries, and in
the number of accidents, as
against the comparable day
in 1868. For the second ESD
Day., everyone in every
State and community will be
asked to join in bringing

erican market owned and Op-
Grated by a Negro Company.
The near 200 guests at the
banquet, sampling the new
product rated the brew favor
ably with the best premium
beers on the market.
John Randolph Smith, in
addressing his audience made
the announcement of his mar
riage to the former Mrs. Yer
ma c. Phillips, April 16, 1866.
He said words were made
quate to describe the assist
ance and encouragement
given by her in bringing a
dream to reality tonight. He
also said she had been a COM
petent assistant for more
than a year in the conducting
of the research and surveys
necessary to be made for the
formulation of Colony House
Brewing Company, of which
Mrs. Smith is co-owner. Mr..
and Mrs. Smith travelled more
than 1000 miles consulting
expert brewers and testing
brews in perfecting this for
for Colony House Pre-
Beer.
No necomer to business,
Mr.. Smith formerly owned
Smith Music and Appliance
Company, Atlanta, Georgia,
and built this business to a
gross sales of 100000 per
year. He owned and operated
the first Negro night club in
downtown Atlanta, Club Pom
cianna.
In 1850, he was appointed
Consultant, Special Services
for the blind in the Federal
office Of Vocational-Rehabi-
tation, Washington, D. C. This
work carried Mr.. Smith into
thirty-four states before COM
ing to Philadelphia, January
1858, to work with the Penn
sylvania Association for the
Blind. This job he resigned
as OF October 81, 1855, to take
over the reins of the present
activities of Colony House
Brewing Company.

Negro Teachers
May Suffer From
Integrati0n

New York-Negro teach
ers' prestige and h i g h e r
social position may suffer tc
an extent and they will lose
some jobs when public school
indignation becomes an act
uality. sil
However, in states where
segregation has been tradi-
tional, a survey made by an
Associated Press showed that
these possibilities had present
ed no major fear among over
$4,000 Negro teachers or sub
stantial opposition to desegre-
cation.
Slowly but surely is the de-
scription of the way the Uni
ted Supreme Court last May
demanding Indignation is 60
ing forward.
A Negro school administra-
tor of Arkansas said, "the
qualified teachers will sur
viye, those who are not quail
flied should not survive. In
my school, we have twenty
four teachers and nineteen of
them have masters degrees.
There will always be a place
in any school system for these
people"
A stand in favor of integra-
tion has been taken by the
Texas Colored Teachers State
Association. Leslie j. White,
who is secretary of this as
ISOLATION, added, although
we may suffer some economic
loss in initial phases of the
desegregation process, the
ultimate gains that will come
from elimination of second
class citizenship should be our
primary concern"

Two final singles matches are

Germantown Cricket Club today,
but they are meaningless. The
IAussies gained the challenge
round when their doubles team
Iof Rex Hartwig and Lew Hoad

in the best-of-five series.
The last two singles send
Pietrangeli against Hoad and
Sirola against Ken Rosewall.
Those Italians were tough. -
Hopman said in his opening
bouquet. Even If they had won
the doubles. I don't think 1t
would have been such an upset"
What about the challenge
round? How do the Americans
(Tony Trabert and Vic Seixas)

pare?
t"It will be an important
match" Hopman said diplomat
ically. Right now. I'd rate
them about even. / know Hart
wig didn't look too impressive

Pietrangeh, the only member
of the italian team who thought
the European champions could
lick the Aussies, was downcast
But he grudgingly allowed az
how the Aussies were plenty
good.

Kuharich, for example, wants
TO try Bert zagers on offense in
the backfleld. He also wants to
TRY Vic Thomas at offensive
tackle and Ed Bierne at offensive
end. but the Redskins will have
to run UP at least a 10-point lead

Right now the game seems to
be a toss-up.

of friction within the Rams
