The United States Supreme Court is as changeabe
woman's hat Only short time ago the nine esm-
able Jurists, who grace the u S. Supreme Court made
perhaps the most famous decision since the bred Scott
case, After almost century of waiting highest tr-
bunal decided that segregation of Negroes in the public
schools of our nation is un-Amercan illegal and must end
The Court however forgot say when segregation in
public schools must end
In the meantime south of the Mason-Dixon line
Southern orators began shout high heaven that Ne
groes and Whites not going go the same schools
no matter what the u S. Supreme Court said In several
southern states politicians threatened to abolish the pub
lie school system altogether.
Many years ago it was said that the u s. Supreme
Court follows the trend of the times 1t evidently does
because In the matter of segregation has made another
decision and the nine dgned Supreme Court ursts de-
cded that the time to end segregation would be up to the
OFFICIALS IN each locality where segregation now prevails
One former Ku Klux Khan governor when he heard
of the courts decision said Hell it will take another
hundred years before nggers go to school with Whites
down here!"
If the Supreme Court did not intend to end seOreoa
ton in the public school system the United States
ought not to have made its decision After it made the
decision, it showed woefu weakness in being
into backracking position as result of southern
tests. P

segregation voluntarily In most admirable wav We Oh

Kentucky Father Of Six
New Tropshot Champion

VANDALIA. Ohio. Aug. 81 (H9.
The biggest Grand American
trapshoot in history winds up
today as the Nations crack shots

Today's events come as an
anticlimax to yesterdays Grand
American Handicap in which
Logan Bennett. 80 year = old
salesman and father of six from
Hodgenville, KY, triumphec
over 1923 other competitors with
80 of 100 from the 19-yard line.
Bennett, appearing in his first
Grand American after taking up
trapshooting only two years ago
and never having won a regis
tered shoot Of any kind, figured
to pick up in the neighborhood
of $4,000 for his triumph. The
exact figure will not be known
for a couple of days.
The estimate was reached,
however, on the basis Of the
payoff to F. B. Rees Of Hey
worth, H.. and Weldon Hopman
of Buckley. ILL.,. who tied for
the less expensive preliminary
handicap Thursday.

Hopman, the shootoff loser
|garnered $4,585. The difference
came when Hopman almost
swept the optionals by breaking
his first rs. while Rees had a long
run Of only so.
Bennett, with no ties against
his record. figured to exceed the
total winnings of Rees and Hop
man. The Kentuckian's con-
quest maintained the tradition
that novices generally take the
big handicap titles here.
Year after year, the unknown
shooters firing from the 10, 20

lions share of the purses from
the favored shooters who are
handicapped as much as q

day:

toward Brooklyn baseball fans
today, mainly because of the
three hits which lifted his bat

The Duke, who had only 5 hits
in "a times at bat before last

Brooklyn fans the worst in base
ball and said they didn't deserve
the pennant. His accusations
came Thursday night after he
had been booed by the fans.
He backtracked some yesterday
when he said II didn't mean all
the fans" but he still was greeted
with a mixture of boos and ap-
plause as he came to bat the
first time last night against Don
Gross of Cincinnati. The boos
grew louder as he struck out

been predicted. there still were
a number of good juniors from

this area.
Gerry, middle brother Of the

he blow up. He qualified with
