courses were not only offered to

such courses were pursued by most

this study provide positive evil
dence that the students surveyed
enrolled in courses generally con-
sistent with their abilities. inter-
ests, and pOst-high school plans.
SiXty-three per cent of all the
seniors surveyed had taken algebra

geometry. 80 per cent had chosen
biology. AZ per cent had enrolled

the boys had studied physics.
The study further reveals that
approximately 8 out of 5 graduates
earned 20 or more units for gradu-

required for graduation.
Another major finding reveals
that Maryland high school stu

offerings, the largest single group
of students pursued the academic

the significant finding that nearly

indicated they planned further

With regard to the question of

Chicago (ANP) - This is the
time Of year when All-Americar
college football selectors are busy
Shortly, the choices they make will
appear in public print.
There are solid possibilities that
two or three tan players will be
among the nominations on several
teams.
Where, for example, can you
find a better college linebacker
than Bill Burrell, University Of
Illinois captain? Or Just name a
better halfback than Ron Burton
of the Northwestern Wildcats.
But they are not the only ones
deserving Of consideration. A pair
of ends, Earl Faison, Indiana, and
Trusso Norris, UCLA, are among
the finest flankmen in college
ranks.
Burrell's teammate from Phil
adelphia, Cliff Roberts, is an out
standing tackle.
Halfbacks, in addition to Burton,
include Ernie Davis, sophomore
star at Syracuse; Mel West, Mis-

Negro Is End
Best Weight
Iiffer In World

Washington, D. c. - A 80 year
old Negro who hopes to be world
champion heavyweight weighlifter
is back at his job at the Library
of Congress in Washington, after
winning title as second best weight
litter in the world in Warsaw,
Poland. A Russian, Juriji Wlasow
won the title.
Jim Bradford, married and faith
er of two, began his career as a
weightlifter when he noticed at 15,
he weighed 247 pounds. In 80 he
was runner-up for the Olympic title
and now hopes to be champion in
the 80 and "a Olympics.
In the Polish competition, Brad
ford lifted 1OS5.5 pounds. With a
SO inch chest, he's six feet tall and
now weighs 2sO pounds.
Bradford is working as a bind
ing assistant in the serial division
of the Library's reference room
and is enrolled at Howard univ
ersity, with one semester to go.
Majoring in physical education,
Bradford hopes to have a health
club or gym of his own-once he
wins the Olympics and gains world
wide recognition. He's even teach
ing his kids, aged four and two,
some of the tricks of the trade.
He's just bought them their own

issue.
The issue is whether the south

Mississippi from participating.
However, Georgia, which car

The situation was described this
way by Van Kussrow, chairman
Orange Bowl: Georgia can play
teams with Negro athletes, but

Despite his guarded optimism
however, Kussrow said he was hop,

Is Byrd's Power
Waning In Va?
BY Victor CalvertOn

Richmond, Va. (ANP) - OPP
position to Senator Harry F. Byrd
or the Byrd machine in Virginia
is no longer a kiss of death" for
a politician or a candidate bidd-
ing for election in a Democratic
primary or the general election.
Foes Of the senator or his machine
have an opportunity these days to
win an election, especially with
the solid support of Negro voters.
Foes of the old Democratic or
ganization in Virginia are becom-
ing bolder during each election,
and recent events indicate these
candidates will have a better op-
portunity in the future to buck
the machine and win an election.
The main factors making this pos
sible is the support small number
of white moderate voters are sure
to get from Negro voters almost
in full strength.
DR.. E. Haddock, a moderate and
opponent of massive resistance to
desegregation, won the election to
the State Senate for another term,
polling more votes than any can
didate in the primary race. But
his victory was aided by Negro
voters.
Henry E. Howell Jr., candidate
for the Virginia House of Delegates
in the July IA primary in Norfolk,
won his bid for the legislature
despite the fact that he has been
consistent foe of the Byrd ma
chine. Ten years ago this would
not have been possible. He, too,
won in part because of heavy Ne
gro support.
Dr. Louise Wenzel, who opposed
Senator Byrd in the 1858 election,
did not win, but she culled an i'm
pressive vote total, and was heavi-
ly supported by Negroes. She did
so well that one newspaper COM
ment after the election was Byrd
won but his sails were trimmed"
and this is what is happening to
almost all orthodox Democratic
candidates not only in Virginia but
In other sections Of the South.

Oh Lord please show me what
I'm doing wrong;
What err it is, I've done it much
too long.
At end of play each night I look

Upon the way I'm messing up my
game.
I'm oft inclined to say "oh what's
the use,"
And yet I know that there is no
excuse
For not at least attempting to
