in the two banks of Georgetown has
been proclaimed a tremendous sue

to local depositors, presumably for

report even more interest than was
shown last year.
The Farmers Bank of George

200 depositors and the Georgetown

The accounts are expected to
grow each year as the idea takes
greater hold.

How Big Is The Little Lacquer

The Little League idea has gone world
wide. This summer more than 1900 ball
clubs took the field, not only in all parts Of
the U.S., but in Canada, Alaska, Guam and
France. Teams from all these regions play
through eIiminations which are climaxed by
the Little League World Series, opening this
year at WiIIiamsport, Pa, on August II.
A program Of this vast size calls for an
extraordinary effort on the part Of adults.
Over $4,000 grownupS help out as umpireS
and managers. It's tough but rewarding
part-time job, as Judge Lewis points out.

10 per cent catching and 90 per cent wearing the equip

that the kids play outstanding game, everything con-
sdered But to put lightly they at times unpredct-

The case before the high
court grew out of suit for
damages brought against the
bus company Sarah Mae Flem-
ming.
She asked $4,000 because a
bus driver had forced her to
leave the conveyance when
she refused to move to that
part of the bus reserved for
colored people.
Lawyers for the plaintiff
charged that the South Car
olina statute requiring segre-
cation ON buses was uncon-
Stitutional. They alleged that
enforcement of the law abrid-
ged their clients civil rights
as guaranteed by the 14th
Amendment.
This was the position up-
held by the court of appeals
on July 1, 1855, and from
which the bus company ap-
pealed to the high court.

was felt, was Montgomery, Ala.
The bus line in that city has
been bovcotted for nearly five
months by citizens opposed to
segregation. A suit attacking
the constitutionality of state
and municipal segregation
laws has been instituted in
federal district court in
Montgomery. A hearing is
scheduled for May IL.
This suit will be heard by
a three-judge panel and
authorities expected that the
decision in the South Caro-
lima bus case would be APP
piled.
