The prayers were said with deep
emotion by the rabbi. The re-
sponses were equally moving.
Professor Marcus delivered a
masterful address on the role of
Ashkenazim in American Jewish
history. The members of the
choir sang traditional melodies as
if their hearts were in their
threats. The benediction was like
the laying on Of hands in priestly
blessing. The congregation dis
persed.
In the emptied sanctuary the
candles glittered. The white mar
BILE memorial tablets with the
names of those who had joined
eternity stood out with stark
clarity: David Goldstein. Joseph
Hecht. Morris Lipman. How many
men walked the earth today bear
ing these honored names! Sud-
denly my eyes were arrested by
the names at the head of the me-
mortal tablet. The names of Baron
Maurice de Hirsch and of his wife
Clara led all the rest. Perhaps in
this eloquent tribute to a man
whose heart encompassed all Jew
rY there was an affirmation and
dedication and a history of a
community and Of people. How
many of the departed pioneers Of
Columbus were indebted TO this
prince of philanthropists? Only
those who erected the memorial
tablets would know.

Southern Gears
For Grid Season
BY s. w. AUSTIN

A frank prediction that the 1866
edition Of Southern University's
Jaguar Cats will be very strong
and will be top contenders to wrest
the Southwestern Conference crown
from the Prairie View Painters,
winners for the past four years,
was made here this week by local
supporters.
Earlier this month, Head Coach
A. w. Mumford, who is beginning
his 18th season here, said he was
quite elated over the Jaguars'
prospects which will be bolstered
by, some newcomers from the best
in the high school ranks.
A strong advocate Of a high
scoring squad, Mumford will build
his explosive offense around a
swift and hard-driving backfield
which has caused the Cats OPP
ponents many headaches during
his near two-decade tenure.
The Cats will face a ten-game
slate and will meet Xavier Uni
versity, an ancient foe, in the third
contest of the season. This tilt
has always been a hard and bitter
battle. Southern holds a wide edge
in the win column, but last year
the injured-ridden Jaguars eked
out only a one-point 14-13 victory.

An elaborate storm warning,
plant evacuation, and shutdown
system is helping to protect the
multimillion dollar investment in
oil and petrochemical plants in the
Gulf Coast area, The Oil and Gas
Journal reports in it's August Is
issue.
Always one of the biggest prob
lens of industry along the Gulf
Coast, the Hurricane season is be-
coming an ever bigger problem as
tidelands drilling operations move
steadily farther from shore.
Crews need to batten down Off
shore rigs, get tenders to port and
evacuate workers. Refineries and
petrochemical plants ashore also
must shut down. High winds or
tidal waves could damage equip
ment and result in an explosion or
serious loss if plant were caught
operating.
Since thousands of dollars and
valuable time are lost in these shut
downs, operators need to be sure
of their storm information.
To assure the industry immediate
and accurate information about the
storms movements, a complicated
but smoothly running system has
been adopted, the Journal says. A
radar-teletype network manned by
the U. S. Weather Bureau tracks
all storms and informs local COM

Firing Of Dr.. Frank

test has been sent by Lester Gran
ger, executive director of the Ma
tional Urban league to Washington
regarding the dismissal on August
% of DR.. Frank Horne, Negro ad-
wiser Of minority Housing Admins
traitor Albert Cole.
Horne told newsmen this week
that his custer is IAN abrogation of

Both he and his assistant, Mrs.
Corrinne Morrow, have been told
that their job will end August Is,
to permit a reduction in the
agency's employment force"
Horne says he has filed an ap-
peal in which he contends his custer
is invalid because of his civil SER
vice status and his additional en-
ployment preference as veteran.

Suit Vacated bY
Chicago Judge

CHICAGO. (NNP) - Oreste:
(Minnie) Minoso, the Chiiage
! White Sox star outfielder, may
now swing freely without the pros
pect of facing arrest.
That much was decided Friday
after a brief hearing in the Su-
preme Court when Mrs. Barbara
Armas Minoso, %, former wife OF
the outfielder, appeared before
Judge Charles E. Byrne on petit
ton by her attorney, Claude Hol-
man, to have an order vacated, dis
missing an attachment against Mi
noso for the latter's arrest for fail
ure to pay 81 $50 in back alimony.
Attorney Sol R. Friedman, rep
resenting Minoso, who was with
his team in Baltimore, objected to
the order being vacated. He stated
that the court had finally and COM
pletely disposed of the case and
that Mrs. Monoso's testimony was
irrelevant.
Judge Byrne agreed with Fried
man and refused to vacate the or
der of August 4, which means that
Minoso is now free to return to
Chicago without being subject to
arrest

To Cost Less

London CAMP = The Eastern
government has voted to adopt a
proposal by the Bride Price"
committee to limit the payment
by a prospective husband to $84
and limit petty expenses to S14.
The committee reported that the
time has not yet arrived when
the bride price, or dowry may be
totally abolished, but hopes that
it will eventually with the spread
of education.
In the future, all marriages un-
der Native Law and Custom are
to be registered: divorces are to be
pronounced only by competent
courts, and child marriage is to
, be abolished.
The government intends to in
troduce legislation on divorce, child
marriage and the custom of a wom-
an bearing children for the father.
The report also states that to raise
the social status of women, mon
ogamy should be made the rule in
the not too distant future.

invaders are seeking their second

New York, (Global) - One of
the hottest subjects in baseball at
the moment is the tight race for
the top spot in the American
League. 1t has been many q day
since the Yanks have been so hard
put to stay on top, and the deter
mination of the White Sox and the
Indians has everybody cheering.
Amid the cheers, there can be
a great deal of praise for the
young Negro stars who are giving
their all to these top teams. The
White Sox can boast of couple
of guys named Boyd and Minoso
who, without question, have, by
their stellar performances, helped
keep the White Sox on top. Breath
ing down their necks, however, are
the Cleveland Indians, and helping
them to keep up this breathless
pace are the reliable Larry Dolby
and a newcomer named AL Smith,
who hasn't been around too long,
but who has shown he belongs.
Of course, no one could discuss
the American League race without
talking about the struggles of the
New York Yankees. 1t is pretty
we'll conceded that Elston Howard,
whom the Yanks seemed SO dubious
about including in their lineup,
has been a tower of strength with
his timely hitting, his fielding, his
catching and his versatility. With
out doubt, he has been big figure
in keeping the Yanks within shoot
ing distance of the pannant.
This is the most exciting pennant
race in years, and it is all the more
so, because of the fine play of these
young Negro stars.

munities, through radio stations,
newspapers and wire services, Of
a storms position and probable
path. Navy and Air Force hurri-
cane-hunter planes fly directly into
the center of the storm at sea to
determine it's size and intensity.
Ships furnish frequent information
as the storm passes near them.
Meantime, industry takes further
steps to keep informed and ready to
act. Some companies subscribe to
a commercial weather bureau which
keeps them privately informed.
Civil Defense is on the job with
alarm warnings. The alarm system
is tied in with key industrial plants
by telephone company circuits. One
company has even installed is own
radar station, and transmits infor-
nation picked up directly to the bu-
reau which coordinates it with
other data.
Offshore operations are the first
to be suspended after a warning.
Plants require about 10 hours to
shut down. One plant follows the
method of evacuating office per-
sonnet, engineering force, and nom
operating workers first, working
through the plant gradually until
all units are shut down and the
crews checked out. There is no
great rush at the last moment.
When all units are closed, a skele-
ton death watch" crew alone is
left.
