COLLEGE GIRLS
EXPERIMENT

Five Negro and five white stu
dents from the South who came
to New York to discuss integra-
tion with Barnard College stu
dents, found that they had learned
more by talking to each other.
This is the first time I've
ever spoken to a Negro girl as
one college student to another,
Angela Johns on of Wake Forest
College in Winston-Salem, NC,
said yesterday.
Minnie Riley of Spelman Col
lege, an all-Negro school in At
lanta, said she had never thought
it possible to talk to Southern
white the way We have during
this past week"
This is something you just
don't do in the South very often.
she added.
The tenwomen lived in the Bar
nard dormitory and attended
classes in their major fields Of
study. In their spare time they
toured the city. Ten Barnard
students will return today from
Winston-Salem and Atlanta. The
exchange program was thought
up by the Barnard student gov
ernment.
The Wake Forest students. who
describe thems elves as repre-
sentatives of the liberal" ell
ement of the South, are deter
mined to establish an exchange
program with the Negro teachers
in Winston-Salem. They will
continue to press the Wake For
est board of trustees to commit
itself on integration.
Two members of the Spelman
College delegation are members
of the student Sit-in movement
and expect to report their i'm
pressions to the sit-in group as
well as to their college.
The purpose of the program.
according to the student coun-
Gil, is to foster an awareness
and understanding of the prob
lens of integration.

ON WINGS
The Problem Is q 'Beout!r
BY CHARLES YARBROUGH

stuart u. Upton didn't look
act or eat like a man whose
business has lost $50 million
this year.
The president of the Air
Transport Association was his
usual genial self during a press
conference-luncheon at the
University Club.
His smile was ready but his
business hurts.
Have a look at the auto
market" he said. How many of
those inter-city drivers and
passengers can we get on the
airlines?
That's a sale problem
That's a real beaut!"
The airlines have so per cent
of the common carrier rail
and buS) market. The inter-
city auto travellers and the non-
traveller make up the best area
toward expansion of airline
business.
Selling them is something
else. Mr.. Upton admits.
BY next Friday, the Civil
Aeronautics Board may have a
decision for the hard-preSsed
airline industry - possible
authorization of higher fares.
Wont higher fares drive
more customers away?" Mr.
Upton was asked.
His answering Shrug was
eloquent.
But the statistics show that
airline coach fare this year is
only tenth of a cent above
the 1888 level. There is no need
going into what the cost of
living has done over those
years-and the cost of air.
planes.
Higher fares is one way out
of the financial forest the air.

ping the auto travel market is
another. Prime target of the
industry is the Governments S

lines feel, and giving them a
10 per cent fare boost would
leave tickets priced just where
they are today.
Foreign competition and that
of the military are among
other reasons given for the IN
dustry'S plight.
Without naming them. Mr.
Upton took off on smaller
countries who are getting into
the international airline busi-
ness that should bt using the
money for betterment of the
people"
With all that $50 million loss,
Mr.. Upton believes 1862 will
be better-"perhaps five per
cent" He bases this on a Slight
upturn in air travel during the
last three months.
Most Of his optimism was
spread over the prospect for
the helicopter-"on the verge
of making a major step for
ward" with use of the new
tWin-turbine 'copters.

American AirlineS' c. X.
Smith earlier this week recon-
mended to the CAB that the
spread between first class and
coach fares be narrowed from
$40 to about $25 before tax
on trans-continental flights
with proportionate reduction in
the spread for other flights
over 1900 miles.
Such a plan would reduce
first class fares by five per
cent and boost coach fares by 5.
He pointed out, as did Mr..
Upton. that a primary cause
of dropping revenues is the
continuing shift of passengers
from first class to coach.
Mr.. Smith said that the
domestic trunk lines are pro-
viding coacn service TO the

Growing Tree Atop New Bank
Is Officials Salute to Workmen

the land of 20 Tannenbaum,"
and what's more, it seems to
work.
The building is a new branch
,of the First National Bank of
Arlington and is located at 400
Army Navy drive, on the left
after you cross into Virginia.
Gen. James C. Fry. CUSA
retD, bank vice president. said
he got the idea when he was
serving as Deputy High Com
missioner to Austria in l949-
81, where trees on roofs under
construction scarcely got a sec
ond glance.
One explanation is that the
tree is a symbol of life. health,
growth and progress. But Tyro-
lean Workmen offer a much
more doWn-to-earth reason: its
way to put the bite on en-
ployerS.
Long ago, the story goes, a
German contractor failed to
provide the usual ration of
wine to crew building barn.
When the ridgepole was nailed
in place, one of the carpenters
blessed with a sly, pleasant cum
ming climbed up. fastened a
small but healthy sapling be-
yond reach. and then climbed
down to await results.
While the boss stormed. the
workmen just hooked their
thumbs in their lederhosen and
stared at the sky. The tree
vanished promptly when the
wine ration reappeared, and a
tradition was born.
Gen. Fry thinks the tree on
the bank building Symbolizes
the growth that is taking place
around Washington, modestly
adding that this would include
First National of Arlington,
which has another branch in
the Pentagon.
There's no telling what other
ideas the vice president may
have picked up in his military
career. Before he retired three

The likelihood of a man stick
