Old Mun Winter

MANY persons have spent hours telling about the rea
~ winters used to have in the twenties And how
lucky we have been to have such mild weather during
what used to be winter.
Perhaps these people are going to have an
opportunity to see these wild winters back. Anc
if this is the case the officials might just as well pre-
pare to take of the situation We can't continue
to have our activities crippled for days at time The
loss of time money and patience will be too great.
We hesitate to welcome socalled real winters back
Snow and nippy weather has its charm but enough is
enough.

in these conditions is contrary
to everything we have been
taught to believe in. There must
be another answer.
Now voices are beginning to
be heard that, come September,
members of the faculty will not
join the MEGA and lend sup
port to its new headquarters in
Twinbrook. That is all well and
good; however we still lack rep
resentation.

A Teacher Speuks Our


The teachers of Montgomery
County have a serious problem
which they need help in solving
two problems really. The
first, possibly you can help us
solve. How can we express our
protests without fear of re.
prisal or have some weight
given to anonymous letters, ar
ticles, etc.? This fear of reprisal
is not an unwarranted fear. We
have seen 1t happenl We feel
that we have legitimate com.
plants. Those of us who were
in the county under DR.. Norris
had petty little peeves and the
usual gripes of normal, healthy
Americans but never once did
we question his allegiance to
the educational system, to the
teachers or to the citizens
whose children we are respon.
sible for 100 days of the year.
That faith and trust is gone.
There is something basically
wrong with the school admins.
tration in Montgomery County
today. The core of the system
the teachers-is decaying
from within. There are many Of
us who are seriously worried
about this situation. We need
our jobs mot many of us work
outside the home unless ii is
necessary and we resent being
forced from jobs If the fault
lies elsewhere-especially if we
have not had a chance to speak
our piece" On the other hand,
it is very frustrating to work
in a situation where you have
no voice, you don't dare
speak out for fear of bringing
repercussions down on IL your.
self, p your school and 81 your
principal (who has expressed
her own fear of her job, a cut in
salary or transfer to a lesser
position).
Which brings UP the other
point-where do we get effec.
tive representation? We pay
$40 a year in professional"
memberships, which, believe me,
are not on a voluntary basis.
There are other methods of
force than the physical one.
After all, "our school must have
100 percent participation"
That is beside the point. Our
local organization, the MEGA,
is not presenting the views of
the teachers as a body. AS an
example: what are they doing
about the Career Recognition
Plan? Ask the teachers what
they think! Here again we run
into the question of bucking the
administration. What kind of re-
gime Is this where no one will
put up effective opposition? Mr..
Symonds will come into the
schools and butter up the facul-
ty but back down and reverse
himself when put to the test.
Our own school representatives
to the MEGA will not stick
their necks OUT or "be the
goats" in any controversial is
sues. Dissenting votes on i'm
portant issues or petitions
agreed to by $3.50 percent Of
the faculty have been quelled
before they left the school be-
cause they would throw an UNI
favorable light on u the school,
p the faculty, and 81 the prin-
cipal.
Believe me, / am proud of my
school. l have nothing but ad-
miration and affection for my
principal. / don't blame her one
Bit for trying to protect her
long years Of excellent service
in the profession. And this let
ter will attest 20 my perplexity
in finding a better answer to
this problem. However, working

Alaska Spreads
Red Carpet for

SEATTLE, UP Alaska is
offering "red carpet welcomes to
both tourists and industries, A. H.

sioner of Commerce, said here
yesterday.
Visitors will find improved
hotel facilities in the states lead
ing cities, he said.
New industries will find the
states tax forgiveness legisla-
tion a powerful incentive, he
continued. Exemption from state
taxes for a period of from five to
10 years is offered to new indus
tries.
A state bond issue, to be voted
upon in November, will provide
funds for highways, bridges and
ferries, benefitting both the tour
list and industrial programs, the
Commissioner said.
Meanwhile, the states primary
election, on August will see the
future site of Alaska's capitol de-
cided. Juneau will remain the
capitol at least until 1865 and re-
gardess of the uncertainty of the
issue is proceeding with an ex-
tensive new housing program.
Besides being concerned with
the outcome of the capitol issue,
Juneau is deeply interested in
studies being conducted by the
Georgia-Pacific Corp. looking
toward large plywood, pulp and
paper operation in the juneau
Douglas area, Romick said.

Sammy Davis Jr. Victim
OF Vicious Racial Abuse
On Streets of London

LONDON, Up = Negro enter
tainer Sammy Davis Jr. came
close to crying today after what
he described as "The most saw
age racial attack l have ever
come across.
He walked out of the Pigalle
Theater Restaurant into a group
of demonstrators from Sir Oswald
Mosley's British Fascist Union
movement.
AS he crossed the sidewalk to
his car, they booed, jeered and
waved banners at him saying:
go home, niger"
His chauffeur driven car roared
away, but a Mosley truck trailed
it while man inside hurled
abuse through a loudspeaker.
Nearly 30 Mosley men arrived
outside the restaurant shortly
before Davis first performance
ended. They waved banners say
ing Sammy back to the trees,
says Mosley" and "Get divorced
first, Stag"
A Stag is British slang for a
white woman who associates with
Negroes. Davis fiancee, Swedish
actress Mai Britt, is not due to
receive final divorce from her
