BY A. n. MckINZIE

l.. Walton Young, realtor and
well known in political circles,
has now reached mans allotted
span - four score years. How
ever this remarkable man is still
quite active. On his property in
the Village Road he is construct
ing a 20-room hotel, what is more
being a builder he is directing
the project and helping with the
work. He believes there is still
a future for small hotels catering
to colored American tourists. The
hotel is only a part of his plan.
About 800 feet to the portheast
of the hotel, Mr.. Young plans to
set out a dance pavilion about 200
feet square with an open-air CEN
ter. The reason for making the
pavilion so far from the hotel is
to assure quiet for the hotel and
neighbors.
Nearer the hotel will be res
taurant, tennis courts, a skating
rink and a swimming pool.
A unique feature of the pool
will be a special partitioned sec
ton for children.
The whole area about eight
or 10 acres - will be developed
into gardens.

Students In S. c. Stage Boycott

ORANGEBURG, S. C.-(ANP)
- The student body OF South
Carolina State College for Ne
groes has entered its second
week OF a boycott against food
supplied TO the campus by dis
tributors sympathetic to the Or
augsburg White Citizens Council.
AT the same time, the students
joining the local NAACP chapter
en- masse in protest of a recent
state legislative act, now law or
dering an investigation Of NAACP
activities at the state-supported
college.
The protest began a week ago
last Sunday when some 500 State
College students refused to eat
dinner in the sch~>' cafeteria be-
cause the milk 49, --i~sed from
Coble Dairy and the bread from
Sunbeam Bakery.
Officials of Coble Dairy and
Sunbeam Bakery have been ac-
cused of aiding the White Citi-
zens Council in its 10-month-old
campaign of economic reprisal
against Negro businessmen who
had signed petitions to integrate
Orangeburg County public
schools.
Students also are boycotting the
distributors of Coca Cola and
several other soft drinks.
The South Carolina State Col
lege student council has demand
ed:
"a That President Benner C..
Turner and the schools all-white
board of trustees cancel con-
tracts with offending suppliers.
(2) That the college, il it has
to, dispense with commercial
bakeries and substitute home
cooked bakery products.
(3) That President Turner
speak out on the need for int
grated colleges.
The boycott and mounting stu
dent revolt which accompanies 1t
are both the consequences of the
states attempted breakdown on
the NAACP and pro-integration
forces.

DIREcToIRE LOOK COMES
WEAR

ne sdirectoire" looh has come
TO maternity wear and soon
mothers to-be will be seen wear
ing the high-under-the breast
line silhouette.
This easy, free flowing silhou-
cite with its fiuid-like drape is
natural for this type of apparel
and will be seen frequently this
summer in prints, silks, cotton
eyelets and sheers.
Pretty dress-up styles are high
lighted, frequently with empha-
sis in lovely, different necklines.
This seems a wonderful way to
divert attention from the figure,
which incidentally, is consider
ably flattered in this new sill
houette.
Another version of the Direc-
toire influence in the jumper
yoke gives a sheer accent.
The new trend in this type of
apparel seems to be in the direc-
ton of the pared down silhou-
cite.
