Civil Rights
Stand Hurts


New York, July % 80 Cover
nor Averell Harriman's strong
vote if he runs for President, a
stand on civil rights will est
him the great middle-of-the-road
poll of Republican leaders in six
key states indicated today.
Though the New York governor
is conceded the vote of minority
groups, he is pictured in the new
issue of Look Magazine as the
Democratic figure Republicans
are most confident of defeating.
Harriman's refusal to be moderate
on civil rights as well as other
key issues sets him apart from
all other serious Democratic can
didates, and could possibly cause
a party-splitting rift with South
ern Democrats, the Look article
reported.
Nevertheless, Hartman is de-
picted as firmly committed to the
application Of the Supreme
Courts decisions. His position
the article said, is that the North
ern liberal wing is the party and
that Southerners can fall in step
or leave.
Always at his best when deal
ing with small groups, Hartman
is seen making a major effort to
win converts when he encount-
ers convention delegates at Chi
cago.

Monurchs
VS. Memphis
At Onnohu

The Kansas City Monarchs and
the Memphis Red Sox of the Ne
gro American League will show
their class at Omaha in Muny
stadium August 4th at 8:15 pm.
This will be the first Negro Amer
lean league game to be played in
Omaha this season. A good turn
out is expected to witness these
two teams perform. The teams in
the Negro American league have
all been able to sign up some very
promising young players at the
start of the season. This means
that there will be real lively bat
ties between all the teams in the
league. Every team in the league
has been blessed with some fine
recruits, so the result is their
games are played with intense
rivalry. The Monarchs and Mem
phis Red Sox will be playing
few games in the middlewest
area, their league scheduled
games. The new owner of the
Monarchs, Ted Raspberry has whip
ped up a fine club, and Ted says
that the Monarch tradition will
continue to be a continued super
team. On the monarch roster is
Moroto, Pride and Floyd on the
hurting staff, along with the SEN
sational youngster, Hal Jones.
Jones is only 18 years old, but he
is considered top star with the
team already. 1t is hoped that the
fans will turn out for the Mon.
arch-Memphis game, as it will be
a red hot battle, and also see if
Omaha wants more Negro Amer
ican league games in the future.
There will be no advance sale
Adm. will be adults $1.00 and
children SOC.
The two teams have August 18th
and 9th open for league games

having these two teams play car

Candidate For President
Would Push Firmly

New York = Gov. Averell Har-
riman as President would "firm-
ly" use the top office to push
southern states toward de-segre-
cation.
The Democratic presidential
hopeful expressed his civil rights
views in a letter to P. L. Prattis,
executive editor of a Pittsburgh
newspaper.
In a direct reference to Presi-
dent Eisenhower, Hartman said
the tragedy of our times is that
the Chief Executive "has not
lived up to his obligations or
seized the great opportunities
possible on civil rights.
Hartman said many tensions
over the color problem in the
South could be eliminated if Mr.
Eisenhower asked persons of
good will ito work together un-
der the inspiration and leader
ship Of his high office"
Hartman in his letter answer
ed 'yes" to the all-important
election year question: Would
you use the power to induce
the leadership in so-called recall
citrant states to steady and pro
gressive program Of compliance
with de-segregation) rather
than defiance?"
He went on to answer that
the leadership in all our states
should take action to comply
with the recent Supreme court
decision outlawing segregation
in school along color lines.
The general assembly in Ashe-
bCro, N. c., where Hartman will
make on Saturday his first Of
ficial bid for southern support in
his campaign, is planning to act
on a series of bills July % de
signed to prevent the mixing OF
