overcrowding Negroes in large
cities would become worse in the
North than in the South.
Abrams, who is a visiting pro-

seems as if this room is a
catch-all for everything.
Would appreciate any ideas
on color for walls, etc. to
make it more colorful and

Dear Mrs. G. F.:
I would suggest cabinets

doors to keep things neat.

Think a smart regimental-
red would wake up the walls
and make a fine background
for your husbands hunting
trophies. Then hang up some
sporting prints.
Chair seats covered in
black burlap would add a
little zip too. Red walls, black
cabinets and chair seats and
all the white utilities, plus
the colors in your prints
should make this the favor-
lite room of the house.
Mrs. XII. asks:
In using purple and
orange in a color scheme,
what shades of each color
should I use? What other
color would compliment
them?"
Dear Mrs. X. L.:
Oh, please don't! You'll

YomChonpsLunch
On Capitol Hill

The 18th annual pilgrim
age of yam champs descend
ed on Capitol Hill yesterday
to show of samples of their
prize-winning crops.
After a whirlwind tour of
Washington, the climax of
their trip was lunch with the
congressional delegation from
their area.
The IL teen-age farmers
were winners of the 1859
South Carolina All sweet
potato production market
ing contest sponsored yearly
by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture extern
sion service and the A&P
food stores.
The contestants, accom-
panied on the tour by All
leaders and several of the
proud fathers, work under
the supervision of USDA ex-
tension agents.
The agents pass on the
latest scientific know-how to
the youngsters to help them
produce record crops on
their one-acre plots.
The yam champs report
the crops this past year were
particularly good both in
yield and quality.
The USDA says it was a
fine year generally for this
vitamin-rich vegetable with
the overall production esti-
mated at over 18 million hun
dredweight, about 4 per cent
ahead of a year ago.
When the boys left WASH
ington yesterday afternoon
they were headed for New
York to follow the route of
their yams from terminal
warehouses to neighborhood
supermarkets.

For a baby gift: a baby's

sold at any drugstore), which
is very nice for warming up
a fussy baby's tummy. This
is something that very few
mothers receive and many
wish they had at 2 am.
Just roll it in a soft wash

baby's tummy. This has

For a wedding shower: a

in which the bride can keep
her favorlte snapshots of her

A miscellaneous gift: for
teacher, a friend at the hos

etc., is a bud-vaSe for less
than a dollar.
For the children to give
aunts and uncles and grand
parents on various occasions:
A black and white enlarge

For Fr0ternities

I would like to say q few
words for high school frater-
mites and sororities. I moved
to Northern Virginia this
year from q small city on
the West Coast where the
high schools had fraternitieS
and sororities. I wanted to
join one here but my parents
said no. They said frater-
mites are not allowed here
and that I would get into
trouble at school If I belong
to one.
FraternitieS and sororities
do exist around here. but not
legally. I think it is unfair
and a mistake not to recog-
nize them, and to let them
operate openly. They don't
harm anybody, and are very
useful parts Of school life.
In my old high school
fraternity, we used to meet
one night @ week and some
times have guest speakers or
work on civic projects. The
speakers would come from
all walks Of life and usually
were very happy to talk to us.
Some were policemen, some
were lawyers, and once we
had o Federal narcotics
agent, because they were
worried about dope peddlers
in the bigger cities in the
region.
We also used to hold paper
drives and other affairs to
raise money. At Christmas
time we would help collect
toys and food for the poor.
We had our own sports
teams and would play against
other fraternities. Several
times q year the fraternities
and sororities would get to-
gether for combined dances.

"You Talk Too Much"
could have been a hit more
than a year ago, but it was
never released to the public.
This is the strange story
of Joe Jones' delayed-ac-
ton record:
A year and a half ago
Joe, a 30-year-old New Or
leans singer, sat down with
Reginald Hall, another New
Orleans musician, and wrote
q song about a boy who
loves his girl but can't
stand her because she talks
too much.
At that time Joe was
under contract to Roulette
Records, a big New York
firm. Roulette's associated
publishing firm took the
rights to the music and Joe
recorded 1t.
That was the last any
one heard of 1t. Joe's con-
tract expired, he left the
company and the record
was never issued.
Several months ago, how
ever, Joe signed a new con-
tract with a small firm, Ric
Records, in New Orleans.
Joe Ruffino, the proprietor,
runs the company from sec
ond-fIoor offices on down.

The only time my fraternity
got in trouble was during an
initiation. We tried to make
the new members push pea
nuts down Main street with
their noses but the police
made us move inside.
All in all, the fraternity
didn't take much time from
school work, and what time
was taken wasn't wasted. The
high schools recognized the
fraternities and left them
alone. 1t wasn't o crime to
belong to one.
What's wrong with such
fraternities anyway? I en-
joyed mine very much and
would like to belong to an
other one. It's q lot better
than hanging around O drive
in restaurant. II there's any
thing wrong with fraternties
and soroities around here, it's
probably because the schools
don't like them and punish
their members. I'd like TO
hear other opinions on this
important topic.
