HERE is the story as he
told it: y
The 9th Armored Divisions
invasion of the Rhineland as
one of the spearheads of the
1st Army met with deter
mined opposition during
those first days Of March.
They we're vivid in his mem
ory. Again and again the
tanks would encounter the
deadly ambush of a German
SO. The finest land weapon
ever developed" he termed
1t. ~
The Sherman tanks (M-4s)
with their 76-millimeter guns
eventually would knock the
88 out, but the concealed
German gun would have the
first shot. A direct hit would
buckle a tank and set it af1re.
The tank crew would be un-
able oget ont.
Finally, about 1 o'clock on
the aftern6on Of March 4. the
tanks of Company A went
over a ridge. Before them was
the Rhine-not only the
Rhine, but a bridge with Ger
mans scurrying across it.
There was some discussion
over the tank radios about
calling for artillery fire. But
that idea was turned down.
1t would destroy the bridge.
1--WE sat there expecting to
see the bridge fall in the riv-
er from German demolition
charges. But it didn't.
I'VE had mixed feelings
about the failure of the
bridge to collapse. The near
bank of the Rhine had been
our objective. We were to rest
there.
Then we saw our infantry
units crossing the bridge. 1t
slowly dawned on us that we
might have to roll across that
rickety bridge.
"The infantry met resist
ance on the other side and
needed artillery support"

Garden Lovers Held
Annual Tour June 80

The annual garden tour of the
Garden Lovers Club was held
Thursday, June 80, beginning with
breakfast at the home of Mrs. c.
w. Houser, 1457 Albany, St. Paul.
Following a tasty breakfast, the
group made a tour of her garden
which held a profusion of plants,
both vegetable and flowers.
From there they visited the home
of Mrs. Mae Marshall in Mime
apolis, making a tour Of her gar
den, which was neat, well estab-
Ished and well kept. The next
visited was at the home of Mrs.
Theresa Granger, whose new an
nuals and roses presented a variety
of colors.
At the home of Mrs. Frank Con-
ners, the beauty of her roses pre-
scented a show within themselves
and were highlighted with vari-
hued ANIMALS and perrenials in full
bloom. A blaze climbing rose in
full bloom with $50 blossoms was
an eye-catcher at the home of Mrs.
Spencer Shivers, as well as her
vegetable garden and the many
ANIMALS and roses.
A garden alive with color greet
ed one at the home of Mrs. E. L.
Sims with a long bed of perrenials
in full bloom; while Mrs. Eugene
Bradley's neatly arranged garden
showed much care and planning A
delight to see were the beautiful
roses in bloom at the home of Mrs.
Hardy White, highlighted by her
show rose, Queen Elizabeth and
Mrs. Andrew Clark's beautifully
Handicapped yard with a profusion
of ANIMALS and a new rose garden
brought raves from the group, and
last, but not least, the B. T. Spen-
Ger garden of ANIMALS was truly
intriguing.
At the conclusion of the tour,
a picnic lunch was enjoyed on the
beautiful patio at the home of Mrs.
Spencer. After lunch, members and
their guests toured the rose gar
dens at Lake Harriet, thus con-
Guiding a most enjoyable day.
Guests enjoying the clubs hos
pitality were Mines. Charles White,
James c. Crowder, Elmer Smith,
Mamie White and Mr.. c. w. Hous-
er. Members making the tour were

Corners, c. w. Houser, Mae Mar

Grand Rapids Teacher
Appointed Principal Of
Elementary School There

Grand Rapids, Mich. (ANP) -
Joseph Mcmillan became the first
Negro named to a school admin
istrative post last week at a meet
ing of the city Board of Education.
School Superintendent Benjamin
Bruinsma made a recommendation
that the board hire Mcmillan, a
9Th grade teacher, as principal of
the Sheldon Elementary school.
He received his A. B. degree
from the University of Louisville
in 1850 and the MA. from the
University Of Michigan in 1859,
while an instructor in the Grand
Rapids school system.
Mcmillan, before joining the
Grand Rapids school system,
taught for six years in Idlewild,
Mich. He also served as a scout
and baseball coach at Idle
wild and Baldwin, Mich

state-controlled, and have white
boards of directors. Thus, many
Negro college administrators who
have expressed private sympathy
with the student movement have
had to maintain public silence
and, in the case of Alabama State,
allow some of the student demon
stration leaders to be expelled. The
students at the conference ex-
pressed their belief that the col
lege administrators should put the
movement for equality above their
own careers-aS the students in
deed have put it above their own
education.
The workshop that studied the
"interracial" nature Of the move
ment (there were about a dozen
white students at the conference
from colleges in both the North
and the South recommended that
this shouldn't just be a move
ment for Negroes but for all
people who are against injustice"
The representative Of the Pre-
parations for Non-Violence" COM
mittee stressed that only those
who are certain they can meet the
threats and violence with passive
resistance should take part in the
demonstrations, but that for those
who can't take intimidation, find
something else for them to do
even if it's licking stamps"
The commitment to non-violence
is a keystone of the movement,
and the Negroes have found its
power and Importance. At the
Raleigh mass meeting, King pre-
ached the difficult text of this
doctrine he has given them to use
as their weapon against the ugly
mobs they have faced already and
will face even more often in the
coming months and years. He
said:
DO to us what you will and we
will still love you. We will meet
your physical force with soul
force. You may bomb our homes
and spit on our children and we
will still love you. But be assured
that we will wear you down with
our capacity to suffer. ="
That is the road they have set
upon, and they have already passed
the point of no return.
