Tigers Prep For
Homecoming

Following their hard fought con.
test with MVC which ended in q
draw, the Jackson State College
Tigers went through brief work
out indoors Monday afternoon as
they prepared to meet Coach T.

Bears in the feature attraction OF
Home Coming, 1856. The Tigers
were unable to really get rolling
Saturday night in the co-sponsored
game which was played at MVCs
Magnolia Stadium. Coach John A.
Merritt and his staff showed a
film of the Vocational game to their
charges in an effort to improve
their play all along the line. II
was evident that the Tigers faced
a lot of work on pass offense and
defense before they meet the Bears
The Tigers had two interruptions
against Coach Ulysses McPherson's
Delta Devils Saturday night. A
few more interruptions might have

Several players are scheduled to
do lot of throwing for the Tigers
during practice sessions this week
Ernest Williams, starting Tiger
quarterback, Maxcelle Spriggs, Le-
roy Smith, William Spencer and
Willie Neal are all capable pass
ers. Rough work is being avoided
as much as possible; consequently
the squad, even after gruelling
contest like the Vocational game,
is in fine playing condition.
All former Homecoming Queens
for the past 10 years have been
invited to attend the game and all
who accept the invitation will be
presented to the crowd in a spec
ial ceremony. Some have already
indicated they plan to attend.
The big, big Jackson State March
ing Band will give special home
coming performance at the halt
also. The Band now has about
70 members in it, more than ever
before. Most of these young peo-
ple are top-notch musicians SC
we can expect the half time shows
to be very good. Several other ac-
tivities are being planned for your
endowment. We will expect you.

plans to originate many of their
top programs from San Francisco

want space right at the center of
activity.
What's the reason behind the big
migration to the West Coast? Right
now there would seem to be no
major contests. President Essen
hover is assured of the nominal
ton and Vice President Nixon APP
pears in a strong position to get
the second place.
Mr.. Dalton gives two reasons.
First, the popularity of Mr.. Eisen-
hover and desire to pay tribute
to him. Second. the attractions and
climate Of San Francisco make the
convention a form of vacation.
But the Virginian is not too con-
cerned with reasons. He's more
worried about taking care of the
record crowd. He made two trips
to the coast last year and went
back again this spring to put more
work on the housing problem.
Mr.. Dalton, who performed a
political feat when he polled APP

date for governor in Virginia in
1858. doesn't expect to make many
friends as a result of his conven-

cheaper than Streetcars, and that
there should be no hearings. There
are those who disagree, but as yet
there has been no formal test of
the two contending views.
Normally, in transit fare in
crease cases. the District Public
Utilities Commission hears extensive
testimony about the probable loss
in passengers to be caused by a
boost.
So far, there has been no public
estimate of how many pro-street-
car riders might abandon public
transit if they had to ride buses.
With tax subsidies in prospect for
the system, public concern with
possible cost increases due to a
drop in business might be material.
This problem, though, may be
purely academic. In 66 days, unless
Congress finds a solution to the
transit crisis here, there may be
no mass transportation system
at all.

Republicans to Overtox
San Froncisco's Housing

Close to 10000 requests for liv-
ing quarters in San Francisco are
expected to pour in to Republican
Party officials before the G. o. P.
national convention opens there
August 20. Well over $4,000 of
them have already been received.
But San Francisco hotels and
motels can muster only 9,100 rooms
for convention use.
That sums up the problem of Ted
Dalton. national committeeman and
a State senator from Radford, Va.
who has been picked by party chair
man Leonard Hall to handle con-
vention housing.
Mr.. Hall says he selected Mr..
Dalton because ''he possesses the
qualifications of tact. energy and
know-how to get the job done"
Mr.. Dalton feels other qualifica-
tons are needed. AS he told the
national committee at a recent
meeting in Washington; you need
the smile of an angel and the heart
of pirate to do this job"

which is more than San Franciscos
top hotels have altogether.
Everyone just naturally wants
to be in the headquarters hotel"
says Mr.. Dalton. So he and his
committee have designated both
the Fairmont and Mark Hopkins
as headquarters. But available
rooms in the two hotels add up to
just 500.
In its search for housing, the
committee is exhausting every pos
sibility even as far as Oakland and
Berkeley, where hotels and motels
have been signed up. Now being
investigated are the possible use
of apartment houses and rooms in
private homes. A deal has been
worked out to take care of APP

Republicans Capitalize
On Democratic Strife

1T is a well-known and eStab-
lished fact that, in the clique's
seeking of its senatorial candidate
prior to the recent primary in our
State. its expressed purpose was not
to obtain a man who would serve
well in the Senate of the United
States, but rather to obtain a can
didate who could defeat the man
who had defled the clique. -"

Eldred Rinehart went the Governor

honey by name in a speech in Tow

said Mr.. Rinehart. I'VE are join
ing them in their recent fight

their party. -.
George Mahoney's friends are
not going to forget how that crowd
used him in 1850 and subsequent
years"
Neither. Mr.. Rinehart might have
added, are the Republicans.
y
The Democrats, meanwhile, are
keeping up their spirits with little
story which goes like this:
Wouldn't it be awful" one fellow
says to the other, IF something
should happen to McKeldin and
Lou Goldstein would become Gov
ernor?"
It'd be a lot worse" says the
other, IF something should happen
to Bill Addison and McKeldin would
become Governor.
Lou Goldstein, of course, is presi-
dent of the State Senate. In case
anything happened to Gov. Nc
Keldin, the constitution says that
he should fill the office until the
Legislature can meet to select an
interim Governor.
Supporters of State Motor We
hicle Commissioner Frank Small
jr., are letting it be known that
they believe their man would make
a good Republican candidate for
Governor in 1858.
Gov. McKeldin is ineligible to run
for a third term, but undoubtedly
he will have a lot to say about his
prospective successor. 1t is known
that he thinks highly of former
Representative Small, but whether
that highly. is a moot question.
AS it looks now, the issue may
swing on Senator Beall's willing
ness to go along with a long
rumored switch that would make
him the Republican gubernatorial
candidate in 1858 so that Mr.. Nc
Keldin could run for the Senate.

FOREIGN AID CHOICE

admitting that this years request
has not been thought out.
The NATO Argument
Senate leaders predict that from
now on the administrations case
will be switched to a different argu-
ment. political necessity. Our NATO
generals can testify truthfully that
NATO is in serious danger Of falling
apart. They can show that most
NATO nations are making a re-
assessment of the new Russia and
that many question the value OF
NATO's military structure. There
is doubt in some NATO parliamcnts
as to whether they should stick. If.
at this moment, the United States
announces large cut, the gesture
will dilute NATO's determination
even more. According to this argu-
ment. the House attitude in quar-
reling with the pipeline may have
merit in military technology but
adds up to tragic political mistake.
These are the two positions as
the bill reaches the quarter post.
One Senator said. The argu-
ment is between groups with two
different detectives: The Presidents
NATO strategists think that the
big idea in military aid is not SO
much the count Of machineguns as
the fact that a show Of unstinting
support will keep NATO countries
in the club. It's the gesture that
matters. But it's pretty far from
the thinking of these bookkeeping
sharpshooters in the House. They
are more concerned with the fact

newspaper wrote. at the end of the
campaign:
The Times Dispatch had pre-
pared and put into type on Thurs
day as powerful a protest as we

Then word came late Thursday
that Governor Stanley had con-
ferred with Budget Director Brad

Neale, and that practically the
whole blueprint had been heaved

"All this makes one shudder to

termined to improve the square

ton of the Hanging Gardens of

Public controversies the his

DISTRICT
BY HECTOR MCLEAN

The District Commissioners
struck real blow for liberty when
they Cancelled Walter Burdette's re-
cent attempt to find out who
talked"
Then, however, they embarked
on what could be a dangerous ex-
cursion.
Mr.. Burdette. chief of the Health
Departments Bureau of Food and
Public Health Engineering, put out
a QUESTIONABLE to some 10 en-
ployes Of his agency in an effort to
find out who had been criticizing
his policies in talks with newsmen.
The talks resulted in newspaper
disclosure that Mr.. Burdette was
following a lenient policy of en-
forcement of food sanitation regu-
lations-a policy which he was
ordered by Commissioner David B.
Karrick to modify after the dis
closure brought it to light.
Check on Conversations
Mr.. Burdette's QUESTIONABLE
asked if his subordinates had talked
with any newsmen within the last
go days about the problems or poll
cieS of the bureau and if so. with
whom and by whose authorization.
He also asked about any such dis
cussions which might have resulted
in unfavorable publicity. And he
asked his subordinates to tell on
any of their fellow workers who had
been interviewed by reporters.
The Commissioners ordered the
questions withdrawn and then told
Henry Hubbard. District personnel
officer, to find out what press poll
cies are followed by all other cities
having populations of more than
100000.
Explaining this, Mr.. Karrick said,
1T is our hope thereby to obtain
helpful information from these
sources on which we may base
future policy so liberal as to meet
with the approval of the public and
the press.
And there's the danger. since
there is no general policy now, any
establishment of one would likely
restrict the potential freedom of the
taxpayers to find out how their
money is being spent.
Mr. Karrick commended that lit is
questionable whether every en-
ploye in the District government
should be permitted to interview
representatives Of the press for the
purpose of airing any and all types
Of grievances and complaints.
Naturally, any organization with

beings. does not operate without the

Maryland Republicans are out to
divide and conquer the Democrats
again.
It's proven strategy with them.
Outnumbered better than two to one
on registration books. they still
have been able to elect a Governor,
both United States Senators and
three out of seven Congressman.
First tip-off on the form that
the strategy would take in this
years election came in the hard
fought Democratic primary in
which Willard E. Tydings narrowly
defeated George P. Mahoney for
the senatorial nomination.
Who should show up at Mr..
Mahoney's $100-a-plate fund-rais-
ing dinner during that campaign
but M. William Addison, who is
approximately to Gov. McKeldin
what Sherman Adams is to Presi-
dent Eisenhower.

Mr.. Addison. oddly enough. is and
always has been a registered Demo-
crat in Baltimore City. 1t may be
that he finds he can be of more
help to his friend and law partner.
Gov. McKeldin. by maintaining his
Democratic afiliation.
Following up his support of Mr..
Mahoney in the primary, Mr.. Adel-
son turned up again in the ma
neuvering which preceded Mr.. Ma
honey's coup d'etat at the recent
Democratic state convention. He.
of course, was working with the
Mahoney forces.
Incidentally. Mr.. Addison APP
parently was the only person in
the State who took an active part
in both the Republican and Demo-
cratic State conventions last month.
When this reporter asked him at
both events why he was there, this
was his tongue n-cheek reply:
MY only interest is in good gov
eminent. You know that"
Mr.. Adelson's activities, which
smack of an attempt to exploit
Democratic disunity to the advant-
age of the party of his Governor,
fit in with recent statements by
Republican leaders.
Gov. McKeldin, for example, told
the Republican convention that

The idea was to reconstruct and

replaced with a modern, three-level

the historic Bell Tower.
