Mrs. Shirley Fulford 305 Mac

Ransom ran over to the Fulford

The suspect who was then sitting

He then ran for a parked car.
The youth gave chase and hit the

A second swing from the bat

tion-it is virtually the spearheac

America and freedom in the
world"
In the light of changed condi.
tons, Mr.. Dram went on, greater
attention and more resources will
have to be devoted to the Associa-
tons public relations program and
we must learn to "call things by
their names" We are no longer
concerned with a Negro problem, "
but with a problem which involves
the whole nation. The NAACP now
represents the aspirations Of prob
ably two-thirds of the American
people"
Accordingly, the public relations
expert said, I'VE must find the
membership and the means to sup
port the NAACP consistent with
our major responsibility in Amer
lean life. If we do these things, we
can look forward with confidence
to an accelerated advance which
will bring us within the next de-
cade - not to a completion Of all
Of our work, but to new problems
Of a new era"

House COP Pull
Teeth Our Of
Civil Rights Bill

Washington, d. C.-House Re
publican members of the House
judiciary committee were accused
Tuesday of joining southern Dem
ocrats in removing the teeth from
a proposed civil rights bill.
The committee removed the
board powers in the bill which
permitted the encouragement to
seek federal court injunctions
against civil rights violations.
Congressman Emanuel Celler
ID, N.Y., bitterly blamed Presi-
dent Eisenhower and other Repub-
licans. He Said:
Il can understand the motives
of the Democrats from the South
land, but the lack of logic of the
Republican members is past under
standing" Celler said. This de-
lection is traceable to the White
House from which no leadership
is forthcoming. Apparently, the
president desires a mere lukewarm
approach to Indignation.

ton whether the American govern
ment believes in and practices DEM

relations in America must admit
that there have been radical
changes for better in the last quar-
ter of a century. Only govern

the present government, in spite

approach. Rather, ''he is oblique
and indirect" He blames the Su-
prene Court "as the author Of
all his misfortunes," and seeks to
convince the North that the court

In their attack upon the Court,
they cite all of its civil liberties

Plan Aids Grades
Of Saint Louis
Missouri PUPILS

st. Louis, Mo.-The marked &C
ademic improvement by Negro stu
dents in the Banneker Group of
Schools in st. Louis was described
on KMOX-Tvs Challenge" pro-
gram recently.
Negro pupils, amounting to 12,-
900 Of the 1900 children in the
Banneker Group, raised their
grades between January, 1858, and
June, 1859, by a great margin.
The improvement came after DR..
Samuel Shepard Jr., Director of
Elementary Education of the
group, started a program to find
out why Negro pupils were doing
badly and to correct the situation.
I'VE knew that there was moth
ing inherent in the Negro teachers
or pupils to explain the poor show
ing in the tests several years age"
DR.. Shepard told Parker wheatley,
moderator Of the television pro-
gram. THE challenge was to find
out why the pupils were doing
badly"
Investigation showed, he said,
that the conditions under which
the tests were given-poor light
ing, crowded classrooms, etc. -
was one factor. Another was poor
motivation on the part of the pu-
pills.
Program Pays Off
The result of the tests given in
January, 1858, showed that on the
average the Negro children were
six months behind the level of pro-
gress which they should have
reached.
DR.. Shepard showed how he
worked with school principals to
meet the challenge and how they
in turn worked with teachers,
pupils and the parents of pupils.
Three semesters later, the work
paid off with results that showed
the children Of the Banneker Group
had made up the sixth months
lag in reading and languages and
were above the national level in
arithmetic. Twice as many Ban
neker pupils were eligible for Tract
One (Superior) high schools than
had been eligible in 1858.
you might say it was a matter
of faith to begin with" DR.. Shep-
ard told the television audience. |
I'VE believed the children could do
it - that they were not in any
way inferior to white children"
Biggest Problem
IAN the principals and teachers
from the beginning
but there were some doubts be-
cause there had never been a pro-
gram like this on such a large
scale before" he added.
THE biggest problem was mo-
dvation - getting the children to
want to learn. We had to show
hem that knowledge would help
hem in the future and get them
% do the best they could with what
hey had
I'VE had to work with them but
hey accepted the challenge too"
The program was sponsored by
