and decided to keep coming back
and she made her point and won
the worlds acclaim. You cannot
whip a man who will come back
for one more round.
You cannot ultimately foil a
tennis player with Althea GibS'
sons heart. Her glory, Is doubly
glorious because 1t came the hard
way. One of the significant
things about Althea's victory at
Wimbledon is that 1t symbolizes
the struggle Negroes are making
for first-class citizenship In this
country.
It is an uphill struggle and "a
fight every step of the way. It is
hard to believe that having been
set free nearly hundred years
ago, the Negro today is struggling
for his basic rights and the Con-
gress of the United States is lock-
ed In a terrible struggle over a
bill of civil rights which means
that otter nearly a hundred years
the Negro has not yet set feet
upon the Promised Land Of full
citizenship.
He is like Althea Gibson, often
foiled on the tennis courts, and
like Althea he is determined to
win at last. 1t is difficult to be-
lieve that in the year 1857 we
could find In these United States
men of the mould Of the represent
atives of the Old South who are
! out to defeat civil rights legisla-
tons at any cost and by any
/ means.

Season Nears

A call for registered nurses, Ii
censed practical nurses, nurses
aides, medical and dental technic-
ians to register for volunteer duty
in hurricane shelters has been
issued by the Dade Red Cross.
Persons in these classifications
are needed at once and will be
rendering a patriotic service to
their community by listing them
selves for duty, DIR. Kermit Gates,
chairman of Red Cross Nursing
Services, declared.
RED Cross has sixty-five shell
tiers throughout Dade County for
use Of persons who may wish to
leave their homes in event of a
hurricane threat" DIR. Gates ex-
planned. 'tEsch shelter has its
volunteer staff, consisting of sup
ervisor and assistants.
'It is our goal that each shelter
staff will include one or more in
dividuals whose training and ex-
perience will enable them to care
for persons needing emergency
treatment. Pending referral to or
arrival Of physician, who will
be called il necessary, the treat
ment given promptly at the shell
ter by qualified volunteer is Of
the greatest Importance"
DR.. Gates said the need is ur-
gent and asked volunteers to reg
lister Immediately. Calls should be
made to the Red Cross Nursing

writing to Red Gross Nursing Ser

must reckon with when he Is
lethargic about exercising his vote
at the polls.
The Negro who can vote and
doe: not vote Is q traitor to the
cause Of Negro advance. If the
Negro can be Gibson-hearted In
his fight for his rights his triumph
is only a matter Of time.
We might have been foiled in
Reconstruction days, and we may
be foiled In the Year Of Our Lord
1857, but II we keep on coming
back for another round, one day
the Negro race will be worthy Of
the heart and stamina OF Althea
Gibson. Long live Althea Gibson,
Negro!

Between The Lines.
Winning at Wimbledon

The tennis matches at Wimble-
don England, are to tennis what
the world series is to baseball.
And now we have Negro starr
ing at Wimbledon in the erson OF
Althea Gibson. Baseball and
football have long since had their
heroes. but now tennis has its
heroine. :.
More than once Althea has been
on the Drinks of tennis glory, al
ways to be foiled in the final at
tempt to take the crown; but
in 1857 was Althea Gibson's year
and she ccceded to tennis glory
and its crown.
We often say that it was a long,
long journey that took Booker T.
Washington from slave cabin to
the Hall of Fame; 1t was also a
long, long Journey that took Al
thea Gibson from the side walks
of New York to- Wimbledon, Eng
land, the tennis capitol Of the
world and to a far-famed glory.
We have often quoted here the
saving that you cannot whip a
man who comes back for one
more round and so Althea kept
coming back after a succession OF
failures.
She would not be denied. 1t is
with Negroes as with other racial
groups that the door will be OPEN
ed IL we just keep knocking. It Is
in such triunnohs that thiswriter
wants to write it "Althea Glib
son, Woman tennis champion OF
the world"
Too often we see that John Doe,
Negro, has committed some crime;
so it makes for a wholesome
change to write II that Althea Glib
son is not only the woman cham
pion tennis player of the world,
but also is a Negro. When Willie
Mays knocks the hound out of the
ball, this writer wants 1t known
that he is a Negro.
So long as we live in a color
struck world and get discredit for
all our shortcomings, let's have
credit for all the great things
that we do from time to time.
One of the things we must
keep in mind is that Altkea has
been foiled at the gates Of glory
on more than one occasion and
one with less stamina and heart
would have given the journey
over. But not Althea Gibson. When
her most ardent admirers were
time eIgain disappointed that she
faltered on the threshold OF glory,
Althea looked tennis in the face

land zoned for apartment con-

unchanged, since many of the
homes front on interior streets.
In the early 18th CEN

l.300-acre tract owned by
George Beall. In 1890. it be-

owned by Gen. Uriah Forrest,
