Wins No. 2

Montgomery Junior Col

Athletic Conference cham
plonship of the year last Fri
day as freshman lefthander
John Papanicolas set Wesley
&c down with six hits as the
knights bombarded their
Delaware hosts with 18 hits.
MIC won, 14-4, and the vic.
tory gave the Knights a 81 con.
ference mark and Coach Don
Conner his second conference
crown of the school year. MUG
won the basketball title this
winter.
1t was the sixth straight win
without defeat for Papanicolas
a slim southpaw, from Western
High School in the District. AL.
though he was tabled for four
earned runs by Wesley, Pap's
earned run average remained un-

season.
Catcher Chester Martin, a
Montgomery Blair product, sup
piled a good portion of the
Knights attack with 4-for-5 and
two runs batted in. He boosted
his seasons average to .375.
John Garthune, formerly of
Wheaton, had three RIBS on
three hits.
One-Two Punch
Papanicolas and Sophomore

The Knights overall record is
81 with a double header against

Plebes next Wednesday. They
played the Maryland Frosh this

Papanicolas has been a hard
man to reach all season. Until

against Georgetown Frosh in
mid-April. Walcoff has a 81
record on the season with his

Barons Favored
In County Meet
AT WI Friday

Next year the Montgom-
cry County Class A Track
Meet will serve as an elimi-
nation meet for the state
wide championship meet at
the University of Maryland.
This years county meet which
will be held Friday at Walter
Johnson at pm. will serve as
little more than a warm-up for
the big carnival at the Univer-
sity a week from Saturday, al
though it could add further pres
tige to the B-CC team and WI
Splinter Billy Grey.
The Barons won their third
straight Bi-County track title
and their third Bi-County league
sports championship of the
school year in a runaway at
Wheaton last week. Billy Grey,
as usual, was high point man
for the meet.
B-CC can be expected to run
up more points Friday than its
record high of SIS points that
won the Bi-County races. The
Barons with their great team
depth can be counted on to fill
in some of the places which
were filled with Prince Georges
County boys last week.
Both B-CC and WI, who fin.
ished second last week, picked
up five first places but it was
the Barons depth that put %
point spread between their
scores.
Billy Grey stole the show with
14A points with first places in
the 100 and 220-yard dashes, a
leg on the winning 440-yard
relay, and a second in the broad
jump. He accounted for nearly
half of the Spartans' 33 points.
There were eight new records
set in the meet and B.CC and
WI split the honors with four
records each.

Villa-Lobos Chores No. 10. And
again, and with even more deserv-
ed insistence, the audience demand
ed that the final choral section of
the work be repeated. Truly the
sound and effect of the chorus,
trained by Warner Lawson, is a
unique glory to behold"
This marks the ninth consecu-
tive season during which the How
ard Choir has performed with the
National Symphony Orchestra. The
October concerts were special per-
formances; however, the Choir and
Orchestra will come together again
in March for their two regularly

Howard, as we'll as Choir director,
is in his 18th year in both capaci-
ties. A native of Hartford Conn, he
holds undergraduate degrees from
Fisk University and the. Yale
School of Music and the Master
of Arts degree from Harvard. At
the latter institution he studied

The 53-year-old American Jewish
committee termed the condition Q
*erisis," attributing It to an "obso-
lence of public and private facili-
ties-schools, hospitals, housing
and transportation"
AS result, the agency charged,
"vast sections Of our major cities
have become Wristbands"
These findings were embodied In
special report by Philip z. Hoff-
man, chairman of the agency's
domestic affairs committee. Il was
presented at the closing session of
the annual meeting of the A. ]. C.'s
national executive board at the
Shoreham Hotel.
The report was based on an In
vestigation in the last two years
by agency specialists in human re-
lations.
Notes Shifting Populace
Excessive obsolescence Of urban
facilities coupled with the major
population migration to the cities,
is seriously aggravating intergroup
tensions by throwing the burden
of these deteriorated conditions on
low-income, non-white groups" the
report said.
Within ten years, it predicted,
three-quarters of the population
will be living in metropolitan areas.
Pointing to shifting populations
in large cities, the report cited
these figures:
"Non-whites. in New York are
Is per cent of the population, as
compared with 6 per cent in 1910;
non-whites represent 20 per cent
of the population in Chicago, as
contrasted with per cent in 1910;
ID per cent in Los Angeles, con-
trasted to ga in 1940."
The report cited studies pre-
dieting that, by 1870 Chicago would
be one-third non-white and Man.
haitian in New York forty-five per
cent.
To cope with this stage of fran
tic transition" the report recon-
mended the creation of an ex-
tensive human-relations program
geared toward building bridges Of
understanding among the various
groups in the cities population"
Mr.. Hoffman urged an imme-
date conference of mayors of large
cities to deal with the "crisis." He
appealed for Federal aid to cities,
since "these problems should be
regarded as a matter of prime ma
tional concern"

What cIs Want
For Christmas.
And Don't Want!
A USO Overseas
Survey

NEW YORK. - More photo
graphs of family, more mail from
home, topped the list of CT pref
erences for Christmas gifts in a
survey just completed by the USO
in it's % clubs overseas.
Following close were requests
for subscriptions to hometown
newspapers, pictures of sweet
hearts, "home-made" (not store
bought) cookies and cakes, sub
scriptions to news and mems mag
azines, money orders, telephone
calls from home and pictures of
friends.
Requests for civilian clothing,
while high in Alaska especially
for sweaters), and Europe, were
at the bottom of the list in the
Pacific bases, in japan and Korea.
USO overseas directors, con-
Quoting the survey, were emphatic
that things the GIs did not want
for Christmas were articles which
could be purchased at PXs and
ships stores.
These would include watches,
cameras, film, records, cigarettes,
tobaccos and "store-made" candies
and cookies, all Of which are in
plentiful supply overseas and at
bargain" prices.
However, requests for "home-
made" cookies and cakes were high

mas remembrances with the pro-
viso that they be carefully packed
so that they would not be crushed
or crumpled in transit, and that
they be shipped air-mail so as to
arrive fresh. 1t was pointed out
that in some cases it takes As days
by surface transportation to reach
some overseas bases.
The USO joins military and pos
tai authorities in urging that
Christmas packages for overseas
be mailed early so as to avoid de-
lays and disappointment.
The GIs were also asked to in
dictate what they DID NOT WANT
for Christmas, and again the vast
majority replied, anything that
can be purchased at the PIX"
One thoughtful CT replied that
the one thing he did not want for
Christmas was war"
Another stated, II don't want
money or expensive gifts - just
something to show that the folks
back home are thinking of US"
A sailor in the Pacific replied that
what he didn't want was "a gift
without a meaning of love behind
it,"
The USO cited the fact that of
the 100000 men and women now
in the uniform of the American
Armed Forces, about 100000 are
stationed overseas, where they are
served at the following places by
USO clubs: Anchorage, Fairbanks
and Kodiak, Alaska; Balboa and
Cristobal, Canal Zone; Nice, Can
mes and Paris, France; Casablanca,
Morocco; Athens, Salonika and
Rhodes, Greece; Istanbul, Turkey;
Naples and Rome, Italy; Seoul,

dinner given at the White House
in their honor by President and
Mrs. Eisenhower.
Mrs. Toure said her official
duties in Guinea are mostly po-
litical." She said she is a member
of the Democratic Committee in
the district in which she lives and
is active in the Democratic Party,
the only party in Guinea.
The beauty who was married
six years ago to her husband who
rose from clerk in the post office
of Guinea to become its first pres
ident, said her hobbies are African
dances, reading and going to the
movies"
Asked how she met her husband,
Mrs. Toure smiled and said their
two families had been very close
for long time and at was just
natural that we should marry"
They have no children.
She said she had never had a
career because she and her hus-
band married right after she fin
ished her formal education. She
preferred not to answer questions
about their home life and whether
j, she does her own homework or has
servants.
Their guide at Mount Vernon,
which Mrs. Toure described as
Every pretty, absolutely magnifi-
cent" was Rep. Frances Bolton
(R-Ohio), a member of the House
Foreign Affairs Committee who
was attending a meeting of the
Mount Vernon Ladies Association.
Although she is widely travelled
in Africa and considered an expert
on African affairs, Mrs. Bolton
said it was the first opportunity
she has had to meet the president
of the new Republic of Guinea.
The visitors went to Mount YER
non in a limousine motorcade and
returned in helicopters. The trip
followed a private luncheon at the
Presidents Guest House at which
guests included the Chiefs of Mis-
sions of African States who will
give a reception in honor of the
Toures this afternoon at the May
flower Hotel.
Both the President and Mrs.
Toure have busy schedules today.

noon tour of The Hecht Co. at F

say too, that it is a personal priv
ilege for me and my wife to vel
come YOU and Madame Toure to
cur country.
We are honored that you are
visiting the United States repre-
senting the newest republic. We
are honored that ours is one Of the
first state visits you have paid to
another country. Along with others
who know what the developments
are in the great continent OF Al
RIGA, we know the hopes and as
pirations of the people of Africa
under the leadership of you and
others who are developing prog
ress toward sef-government. l can
assure you that throughout our
country, you will find among all
Of our people, interest in you per-
sonally, and also in your country
and in the future towards which
you are working. We know and
we hope that you will have a very
warm and friendly welcome dur
ing the two weeks that you are
with US. Again, may say what
an honor it is to extend these
greetings to you on behalf of our
Government and our people.
President Toure: Mr.. Vice Presi-
dent, Ladies and Gentlemen, it is
with great joy and confidence in
the great people of the United
States that we arrive today in the
administrative capital of the Unit
ed States. In this visit, we hope to
establish closer relationships be-
tween the United States and not
merely Guinea but the whole of
Africa. 1t is our profound convic-
ton that as the people and the
Government of the United States
know and understand the prob
lens of Africa better, that there
will be enabled thereby to be Gre
ated closer, more fruitful under
standing between our two peoples
Africa is today one of the great
underveloped areas of the world
and the United States is one of
the most highly developed nations
in the world. We hope that through
an understanding of the conditions
that prevail upon the African con-
tinent where millions, millions of
people live in famine, in hunger
in hardship and in difficulties, that
the United States through an adap-
tation of it's policies will be able
to act in such a way as to improve
the conditions of these people SO
that they may live in freedom and
sovereignty and in well-being. And
in so doing, bring about the fact
that the hopes of these millions of
people in Africa, which these peo-
pie in Africa place in the United
States, will be transformed into
realities.
1t is our profound conviction
that in Africa, there are many
millions of people who are suffer
ing from hardships and difficulties
and who aspire to achieve politi-
cal, economic, cultural and social
progress. AS We know one another
better, this will become more and
more of reality. And, so it is,
say, with a great deal of confidence
and joy that we come here today,
representing not merely our own
country, but also the aspirations of
peoples all over Africa. And for
this reason, we hope that this first
contact with the people and Gov
eminent of the United States will
indeed prove suspicious for all.
Thank you.
