aid tells of the director of boys
club being quizzed on how the
club was run. A woman asked,
"Is it true that you allow color

/ Cheered Too Soon
Last month I mentioned Cap
tain Charles Dents brilliant sug-
gestion that commercial airlines
sport the official emblem of the
United Nations. l praised United
Air Lines for using the emblem
on its planes with the slogan
eve Believe" under it.
I cheered too soon. United has
now removed the emblems be-
cause a few rightwing anti-U. N.
organizations and individuals
protested. United's president, w.
A. Patterson, explained that he
wanted to avoid any controver-
sey in international policy or
philosophy"

George H. Starke, an Orlando
Negro. last month became the
first of his race to be admitted to
the University of Florida Law
School. Meanwhile, more than
SO per cent of the summer stu
dents polled at the University's
school of education said that they
are not opposed to race mixing
in the public schools. More than
rs per cent would not object to
teaching if Negro students were
admitted to their classes.
The British Musicians Union
has expelled three bandleaders
for violating the unions anti-dis-
elimination policy by continuing
to appear at a Northampton
dance hall which bars Negroes.
During the past few years, Act
ors Equity has encouraged show
men to employ Negro actors and
chorus in other than traditional
Negro" roles. In the past season,
1872 jobs were available to Negro
actors in New Cork as compared
to rs the year before.

Now Gov. Almond has closed
