Faced with stiff competition
from the best high schools of
the state, the Lanier sponsors
were quite pleased with the
showings made by their stu
dents projects in the first state
sponsored fair.
Peggye Anne Jones, a junior
high student, member of the
ninth grade class taught by
Mrs. Helen Griffin, received
superior rating for her chem
istry project in junior high
competition.
Horace Buckley, a senior
and president of the Lanier
Student Council, got second
place for his project in physics
which dealt with high voltage

third place rating in chemistry.

nior class. All of these senior
high students are taught by R.

Africans Threaten
Second Boycott

johannesburg, South Africa =.
(CNS) :. While white supremacy
leader Verwoerd, Prime Minister,
is recovering so rapidly at Gen
email Hospital that he could sit
up and dictate long list of
clamping down methods to keep
the Africans in tow Negro
teachers and pupils threatened
a second one-week boycott by
not showing they must come to
school.
Mcanwhilc-an emergency regula-
ton which gives the government
tho right to arrest or detain
anyone without making charges
or producing them before any
court, has been enforced. Police
are OBTAINING many white sym
pathizers or any white person
known to aid the Africans.
The most powerful weapon the
Africans have, however. is the
work boycott where 10 million
Negroes provide most of the
labor for farms, factories and
domestic help for 3 million
whites. The hardest hit are EN-.
ployers who have lost fortunes.
Police call themselves clear
ing the situation by policing
the areas where the African
National Congress emergency
committee has passed out PAM
phIefs, advising the people TO
continue TO fight. Police say
they are trying TO prevent the
Africans from becoming intim-
idafed."
The pamphlets, written plainly
and to the point stressed:
1. Abolish passes which the
law requires all Negroes toscarry.
2. Free our leaders.
3. End the state of emergency.
4. Lift the band on our or
ganization.
The governments answer is
an SOS for more white immi-
grants TO even out the overpop-
ulated Negroes but the whites
already living there are trying
TO migrate to Canada and Aus
tralia.

News For Veterans

Far too many of the 200 million
pieces of mail that flow through
Veterans Administration hospitals
and offices each year cannot be
properly identified. the VA disclos-
ed today.
Too many veterans and their de-
pendents merely sign their names
to correspondence, and names are
not enough.
This still occurs at the Whining
ton VA Regional Office, Leon
Fields, manager, agreed. VA local
ly receives about $4,000 pieces of
mail monthly. An estimated 40 out
of every 100 pieces of mail does not
properly identify the sender or the
veteran. The VA official said this
causes delay and extra correspon-
dence. Oft-times, nothing can be
done with the incomplete CORE
spondence because it lacks re-
turn address, too.
