Attendance Lao
May Put Group in
Dormant Status

The North Cleveland Park
Citizens Association will diScon-
tinue meetings unless it can get
more community support.
Eleven members, including the
president, Elmer Denzer, last
night agreed to give area re-
sidents one more chance to in
dictate some interest in the as
sociation'S work. Unless rs men,
bers turn out at the groups next
meeting in December, the "re-
gulars" will put the association
in a dormant state-ready to
act in an emergency but without
regular meetings.
1--WE won't be anything we
aren't now" one member said.
I'VE just won't be kidding our
selves"
Lets call a spade a spade, :"
agreed Mr.. Denzer. He said the
association has 81 dues-paying
members. with about 100 on the
groups mailing list. Attendance
at the bi-monthly meetings,
however, seldom exceeds last
nights, he indicated. And they're
the same people at every meet
ing.
The association is a paid-up
member of both the Federation
of Citizens Associations and the
Northwest Council. Mr.. Denzer
said the group would try to
maintain its membership in both
groups even if it goes into the
inactive" status.
The group approved the in
vestigation of Washing ton

Boxing in Hub

The boxing situation here
in Boston seems to be in a
bad way, especially for the
colored boxers. I can't under
stand why all Of the colored
champs and former champs
come to Boston to be beaten
by the local champs. I think
that since the advent of tel
evision in the boxing world
the promoters aren't doing
too well financially and it
seems as if they are merely
passing the title around.
Just take a look at the
great boxers that have been
defeated here in the Boston
area in the last few months.
Sandy Saddler, Jimmy Car
ter and bud" Smith, all tops
in the boxing field, lost their
bouts here TO mediocre box
ers Of the Collins, Murphy
and Boardman types. Most
Of the boUts were booed to
the rafters when these great
boxers lost. Is it that the
name fighters aren't trying?
Are they irving to build some
one up? Or are they just try
ing to keep the wolf from
the door?

Mob Rule TrampIes

BY MONROE MASON

Star Spangled Banners will

Federal Government and af-
fected States officials are not
able to make mobsterS under

Stripes" is a standard depict
ing, "a Republic as a nation
under God, Indivisible, with
Liberty and Justice for ALL"

nations patriotic song under

ture of ingratitude foStered by
"die-hard" segregationists, who
apparently are not ashamed of
worldwide censure for dis
loyal racial segregation, is
deemed astounding and req
rehensible beyond reasonable
doubt.
The latest off-shots of solid
South segregationists, are 500
radio personal attacks on news
men and photographers ap-
uearing on mob scenes to cover
for public dissemination vic

tives OF racial jntegration, for

to the founders last Sunday
was much different from Tro-
tier memorials of the past.
Many of us remember when
psf Trotter memorials were
neld in a world of strict ra-
cial segregation in both the
south and border states. There
was no Supreme Court edict
against segregation then. Like
the old folk song. call the
world seemed dark and drea-
ry" to those believing in equal
rights. Now that has changed
THE TROTTERS we're pre-
sent in spirit last Sunday,
September 16, 1856, to gaze
upon a roster world where &C
tual progress is being made
toward racial indignation. In
spite of the headlines featur-
ing last ditch opposition, the
Trotter and Guardian 55 year
crusade for equal rights and
Indignation is rolling forward
in a gigantic swell Of public
opinion, under the able lead
ership of President and Gen
eral IKE Eisenhower.
THE SOUTH summary on
indignation last week reported
most all of the Kentucky 222
public school districts integra-
ted. Maryland reported Is out
of % counties, including Bal
timore, migrated. West Vir-
ginia reported rs percent of
the colored children attending
integrated schools. Oklahoma
in its second year of integra-
ton effort. And Indignation
has begun in Texas, Arkansas
and other states which were
recently strict jim crow.
PRESIDENT EISENHOWER
stated fatty last week that the
u. S. Department of Justice,
acting through U. S. Marsh
ais, will see to it that the SUI
preme Corut decision against
segregation will be carried out
in those eight southern states
still waving the Reebl flag.
The fact that there are only
eight states left when for
pmerly there were twice as
many is proof enough that
indignation in education is be-
ing achieved.
BASEBALL, after ten years
of integrated effort in the
Majors, also showed a good
report card last week. Many
people who feared the col
ored players could not COM
pete wit hthe rest saw that
Hank Aaron was leading the
National League batters. He
also had the most hits. Bob
Clemente was among the
leading two-base hiters. Bru-
ton led in triples. frankie
Robinson led in home-runs.
Villa Mays led in stolen
bases.
PITCHING where colored
were expected to show poor
marks in the majors 1--WE
don't know Why, showed Sad
Sam Jones of Chicago with
the most strike-outS; Big Don
Newcombe with the most
won, and Brooks Lawrence

in the National League. Thus.

Southern Diaries Inc. has told
the State Milk Commission
it has no authority to delve into
inter-distributor relationships.
Attorneys for the dairy firm
told the commission yesterday
the firm has charged subdis-
tributers less than the whole
saler price established by the
commission. but said the COM
missions price regulating powers
at the wholesale level do not
apply to prices paid by a SUBJ

tributor.
The commission had sum-
moned the firm to show cause
why its license to distribute milk
in the Norfolk Portsmouth,

markets should not be suspended
or revoked.
L. S. Robinson Of Washington,
division manager for Southern
Diaries. a Delaware firm, said his
firm pays the commission price
to milk producers. After process
ing the milk. 1t is then sold to a
subdistributor at less than the
figure arbitrarily set by the COM
mission. The subdistributor
then sells it to a regular whole
