Portsmouth To Modernize His
New Pusforufe Minister

Portsmouth, Va. (ANP) \ DR..
James r. Johnson Jr., pastor of
Emanuel AME Church here since
last May 6, has started an extern
sive renovation program at Eman-
uel. He set the pattern at St.
John AME Church in Norfolk
where a total of $2O3, S66.65 was
spent on renovation, remodeling
and improvements on the church
and parsonage.
DR.. Johnson began his pastorate
at st. John just across the river
from Portsmouth on May l, 1919,
and the first thing he did was to
launch a five year financial drive
to raise money to renovate, re-
model and improve st. John.
The first phase of the program
was the work on the parsonage
and grounds at a cost of S1S,S50.
The pastor and his wife didn't
move into the parsonage until it
was put in first class condition, for
comfort and modern living. Work
on the parsonage was begun May
81, 1949 after more than $1,000
was paid on current expense bills.

Three Researchers
Honored For Work
On Wonder DRUG

Washington, D. c. (ANP) -
Three Negro researchers Of the
U. S. Department of Agriculture
were honored recently as part of
a team of 16 who have found in
wild plants new sources of cortis-
one and other hormone drugs used
in the treatment of arthritis and
other ailments.
The three researchers are Harry
A. Monroe, a chemist; and Robert
o. Pierce and Walter Rumph, lab
oratory assistants, all of Phila-
delphia. The work was done at
nearby Wyndmoor, Pa, at USDA's
Eastern Utilization Research and
Development laboratory there.
Eight other chemists, a botanist,
and four other laboratory aides
took part in the research project
which earned the group a Superior
Service Award.
The project was started 10 years
ago, shortly after the discovery of
cortisone. Recognizing the need
for more widely available sources
of the new wonder drug than bile
acids of cattle from which the drug
was first made, the Department
sent botanists around the world in
search of plants containing COM
pounds from which cortisone could
be made.
Over 5000 such plants have been
found abroad and shipped to the
Wyndmoor laboratory. Efforts are
now being made to grow some OF
these plants in the United States
to reduce cost, as well as to pre-
vent the country from being en-.
tirely dependent upon foreign sour,
ces.

THE WEEK IN
RECORDS
BY Albert Anderson
Versatile Record Fare

One Of the most versatile fare,
representing a wide range Of music
of various types, is presented here
for the benefit of our record fans.
Selected carefully to suit several
musical tastes, the records review
ed are especially directed at those
who have expressed interest in GER
tain types of jazz, modern and
past.
The No. / review and one which
provides a good starting point,
since it covers one of the hevlest
periods, is "Swingin' Decade, a
new Capitol relaese featuring Glen
Grey and his famous Casa Iona
Orchestra"
Now the critical record fan may
ask: Why Glen Grey, since the
disc is to be a swinger and Glen's
music has been closely identified
with the sweet" variety? The an
swer is, Of course, to be found in
the maestro's fine musicianship
and the versatility of the band.
And those who still entertain doubt
as to this, need only to scan the
repertoire of songs presented on
the LIP and then listen as the
orch. play selections from such
swing bands as Duke Ellington,
Benny Goodman, Stan Kenton,
Lionel Hampton, Woody Herman,
the Dorsey Brothers orchestras,
Ray Noble, Ted Heath and Glen's
own unit.

COP House Members
Oppose Move To Gust
Civil Riohfs Bill

Washington CAMP - The Re-
publican members of the House
of Representatives made it clear,
Tuesday, that they did not favor
the signing of a petition to pry
the civil rights bill out of the
House Rules Committee.
Only 80 Republicans have signed
the discharge petition while 129
Democrats have attached their
names.
After a meeting of the Repub-
lican Policy committee the chair
man, John w. Byrnes of Wiscon-
sin, issued a statement favoring
the civil rights bill, but criticizing
the Democratic leadership for
sponsoring a dirscharge petition
to get the bill out of committee.
The Republican leaders said they
could not understand why Maori
ty Leader Sam Rayburn and the
Democratic Whip, John Mccormack
were urging their party members
to sign discharge petition.
"a petition to discharge the
Rules Committee is by it's very
nature a procedural device to cir
cumvent an unwilling or impotent
leadership" the statement read.
8 DecOmrats, 4 Republicans
The Republicans pointed out that
the Rules Committee is an arm of
the majority leadership. 1t is COM
posed of eight Democrats and four
Republicans. So when the leader
ship joins in a move to discharge
the Rules Committee it abdicates
its leadership. Such action consti-
tutes nothing less than an admis-
sion that it is impotent or unwill-
ing to fulfill it's prime function Of
scheduling legislation in an order
ly manner.
The Republicans made no men,
ton of the fact that the Commit
tee is actually made up of four
so-called liberal Democrats, four
Southern Democrats and four Re-
publicans, and that the coalition
of Republicans and Southerners al
ways outvotes the liberal wing of
the Democratic party. They only
commended that such action on the
part of Democratic leaders indie
ated their unwillingness to get
prompt consideration of this legis-
lation.
Rayburn DOdges Issue
The COP Policy Committee re-
minded the House Leader that he
could bring the bill to the floor
on any Monday by suspending the
rules or on any Wednesday Cal
endar call. Rayburn could have
used the suspension of rules on
Monday of this week but he was
reluctant to use this procedure.
Great responsibility belongs to
and must be assumed by the ma
jority party and its leadership"
said Byrnes. 1T cannot be shifted
to the minority"

Music OF '4Os

The album itself. which repre-
sents another fine effort by Cap
itol in sound reproduction Cmon-
auraD, features II carefully sell
ected tunes:
From Ellington's collection, Grey
and his men play Jack the Bear
Hes Nowhere, which the late
bassist Jimmy Blanton helped pop
ularize, while Mission to Mos
cow is from the Goodman's suite
and is based on the title of a book
written by former U. S. ambas-
sador to Russia, Joseph E. Davis;
Midnight Sun, a big favorite
which Hampton recorded for the
film, "A Song Is Born, in 1916;
Kenton's "Intermission Riff: of a
later vintage, and "Malibu", a
1945 hit recording by saxist Benny
Carter, are but a few of the fine
tunes featured on the disc d. . The
Grey band contributes, Blues
Rhapsody, another hit favorite of
1913.
Played with much of the quail
tiles of the original compositions,
IS wi g i'm Decade" highlights
songs of the 4Os, described as one
of the grandest periods in the his
tory of jazz. Both newcomers and
fans of the music Of that period
should find the disc delightful and
rewarding

jazz standpoint, for pure artistry
in rhythm, Meis is in league witt

Comic Jerry Lewis
Snubs Lionel Hampton
OnN Show
BY Edward T. Clayton

Los Angeles amp - Timex
Watch Co, and the nations tele-
vision audience were short-changed
out of what had been advertised
as a featured guest appearance of
bandleader Lionel Hampton on the
Jerry Lewis Timex show recently,
the result of a surprise change in
plans while the show was being
aired over MICS national network
The famed vibraphone player APP
peared briefly for only about 25
seconds on the screen, though or
iginally he had been allotted eight
minutes.
Lewis, explanation was that
time ran out.
Left On Sideline
But to the sad-faced camera
men, stage-hands, and at least
some so persons who had witnessed
the final dress rehearsal earlier
that afternoon the mutilated, over
extended televised product appear
ed to be deliberate. The famed
bandleader, who had been rehears-
ing for five days at MICS Bur
bank Studios, and who had been
standing in the wings waiting to
go on, managed to be seen at the
conclusion of the show only after
the closing curtain became caught
in the microphone boom. Had it not
been for that unforeseen mishap
he would not have appeared at all
What was peculiarly not under
standable to the huge studio audi
ence, many of whom had shown up
for the final rehearsal was why
Lionel Hampton was suddenly for
gotten. At dress rehearsal he had
been featured playing the Vbra-
phones in front of a 36-piece band
in a brilliant arrangement of his
recently recorded tune, Railroad,
Just released on Glad label. Its
shuffling beat virtually had the
entire studio rocking in what was
to be a big production number. 1t
was to precede the shows grand
finale, featuring Lewis and his IA
piece, all-drum band.

Ella Sings Gershwin

The enterprising Norm Granz,
Verve prexy, comes up with an
other gem in jazz queen Ella Fitz-
gerald's singing series, Volume No.
8, of ELLA Fitzgerald Sings the
George and Ira Gershwin Song
Book, with music arranged and
conducted by Nelson Riddle and
his orchestra.
AS in the preceding volumes, the
peer of female vocalists does a
tremendous job singing IL tunes
from hit shows and movies written
by the great composers, including
"A Foggy Day lin London TOWN.,
from the flick, "A Damsel in Dis
tress;" For You, For Me, For
Evermore," from another movie,
The Shocking Miss Pilgrim" and
I've Got A Crush On YOU" from
the Broadway shows, Strike Up
the Band" and Treasure Girl.
If there is any flaw to the disc
it is perhaps that it's too back
dated, and certainly NOT the way
Ella breathes new life into them.
Otherwise, singer and orchestra
provides an interesting session on
the LIP, which falls into the collec-
tors item category because of the
death of George Gershwin in 1887
Choice Item.
PIatters Wakes Great
Rock n Roll fans will delight in
a new LIP by The Platters, Mercury
recording stars, entitled Encore
of Golden Hits" which spotlights
several of their hit tunes. Tops at
their particular craft, the Platters
proves here that any facet Of jazz
can be made interesting from a
listening standpoint, as they sing
such ballads as MY Prayer" ''Twi-
light Time, and The Great Pre-
tender" their big hit tune.
All the numbers are sung in
their characteristic style, with the
male lead, backed up by the har-
moniEing section composed Of three
