ing word from George King. the
ex-New York University distance

annual Star meet Saturday night

King. who now lives in Rox-
bury, Mass, and runs out of the
New York Athletic Club. has
been invited and repeatedly is
interested in competing. He was
second to Fred Dryer in the
mile run of the Metropolitan
New York AAU meet early this
month.
A surprise winner in. the good
time of Alb last year, King

of defending champions on hand

By the ASSOCIATED Pres,

Frank Mcclure, whose North
Carolina basketball team has
ousted Kansas from first place in
the latest Associated Press poll,
is happy about the honor but
thinks his unbeaten Tar Heels
will lose at least three Of their
remaining nine games. They
have won IS.
The popular coach. while care
full to laud his players as the
finest aggregation he's had in
10 years Of coaching. said it
would take a near miracle for
his team to maintain its UNI
blemished record.
Il would not be at all sur
prised if we lost three or four
games before the seasons end
he said, land / say this in all
sincerity.
We've got nine games left to
play and eight of these are con-
ference games. And I dare say
the Atlantic Coast Conference is
probably the strongest league in
the country. Teams like Duke,
Wake Forest. N. C. State and
Maryland are capable Of giving
any team in the country a rough
time on any given night. You
get a pretty good idea of the
strength of our league when you
realize that State, the defending
champion, can conceivably finish
eighth this year."
Credits Team Effort
"I'm very happy, of course, +"
Mcclure said of being picked for
the top spot. but, on the other
hand. I'm a little concerned, too.

This years crop of boxers will

According to DIR. Estell, in a re-
cent meeting of the executive COM
mittee at Dallas, the committee
took an option on 100 acres in the
new Bon Air development in South
Oak Cliff. The site for Bishop is
located bewteen Loop IL and High
way rs, an area scheduled for i'm
mediate improvement so that the
growing Negro population in Dali
las will have additional residential
space. DIR. Estell also says the
100-acre campus will provide a
nucleus for a beautiful residential
building development for Negroes.
DR.. M. X. Curry, Junior, presi-
dent of Bishop College, had this to
say about the move: "The decision
to move the college to Dallas is
part of total strategy being de-
veloped by the United Negro Col
lege Fund, Incorporated, under the
leadership of DR.. F. D. Patterson
of New York, New York, fund

U. S. Senator Thomas C. Hennings,

stitutional Rights Committee, an
nounced that the Committee met
this afternoon and voted Az to
report civil rights bill to the
full Judiciary Committee. He said
that he was encouraged that the
committee was able to vote out a
bill and that he would report the
bill Immediately to the full COM
mittee. He said that he would then
ask that it be put on the Commit
tees calendar for prompt action.
The next regularly scheduled
meeting of the Judiciary Commit
tee is Monday, March Is. Hen
nings said: "At the Senate Judic-
larry Committee meeting on Mon
day, i shall move that the full
committee proceed to prompt ac-
ton to report civil rights meas
ure favorably to the Senate itself.
If we don't succeed in completing
action Monday, l shall, of course,
repeat this motion and take any
other action necessary at each SUBJ
sequent meeting until we succeed"
Hennings added: "The bill as re-
ported is subject to amendment
and substitution in the full COM
mittee. However, l shall oppose
further hearings in the full COM
mittee with all of the vigor at my
command. Further hearings are
unnecessary. They would amount
to an exercise in futlity. Already
this year, we have had Is days of
Senate hearings. We heard in full
all persons opposed to civil rights
legislation who offered themselves
as witnesses. If there is motion
in the full committee for more
hearings, / shall ask that a rf.

"The Association strongly feels
that any such statements would be

Before entering Juilliard, Mr..

Mr.. Pritchard has had the good
fortune to be tutored by the late
Carl Friedberg, by Robert Gold
sand and, now, by Hans Neumann
of New York's Names College.
Last season, both Eugene Brice
and Robert Pritchard, separately
performed to unanimous acclaim
throughout Europe and the Near
East. Mr.. Brice was selected by
Robert Shaw as one of the first
Negro soloists to tour with his
famed Chorale. He not only made
an American tour with the group
but was the only Negro to make
the 21-country tour of Europe and
the Near East with them. Mr.
Pritchard was featured as piano

Duo Tues. April z

Itta Bena = On Tuesday April
2 at eight PM, the Brice-Pritch-
ard Duo, under the aegis of the
Mississippi Vocational College Ly-
ceum Committee, performs in the
College Auditorium for the first
time.
The inspired combination of Eu-
gene Brice, bass-baritone. and Rob-
ert Pritchard, pianist, into the
Brice-Pritchard Duo is of recent,
and extraordinary, history.
Until last June, the two young
men, each with a large New York
public, were aware of each other,
as fine musicians everywhere are
aware of each other; but they had
not met. Their introduction was ac-
complished by a president concert
manager who had been following
their separate, rapidly building,
careers. Only after their formal
presentation to each other, and
their immediate recognition Of that
similarity of temperament which
is the basis of fine ensemble, did
the two young Negro artists dis
cover the remarkable similarity of
their backgrounds.
Both Brice and Pritchard were
born in North Carolina, and both
were born to music. Genuinely mu-
steal families are uncommon. That
the Brices, including Eugene, con-
tralto Carol and pianist Jonatha,
did not meet the Pritchards in
Guiding Robert, three other pianists
and several aunts and uncles teach
ing in the music departments of
North Carolina colleges, is in
applicable. When chance was rec
titled last June, the failure of the
two young men to meet before
seemed even more inexplicable.
Mr.. Brice, in addition to the B.
S. degree in Music he has from the
Julliard School, has a degree in
Mathematics from Knoxville Col
lege; Mr.. Pritchard, who received
