The subject of Rev. Lowell John
sons message Sunday morning,
November IL, was Love-. The
basis for the message was from
st. John 13:34-35, "a new COM
mandment give unto you, that we
love one another; as I have loved
you, that we also one another. BY
this shall all men know that We
are my disciples, if we have love
one to another"
Rev. Johnson stated that our
love, faith, hope, charity, kindness,
righteousness, the greatest of
them all is love. And by the way
of definition, love is a divine quail
ity and quantity; love Is a feeling
of affection and good will.
The speaker further pointed out
that the personality that appear
to God does not mean the same as
that directed to man. He went on
to say that one may have all the
affection in the world toward
another and still there can be no
love, and if there is no love it
means nothing.
In conclusion Rev. johnson left
few thoughts: Love suffers long
and is kind; love envies not, and
love is not puffed up; love think
eth no evil; love rejoiceth not in
iniquity; love endureth all things
and love never fails.

ton on the course it had struck,
and both limited that their SYM
pathies lay with the faculty. RAN
som, whose administrative phil
osphy Is more to encourage dissent
than to resolve it, said: 1--WE should
proceed with both a respect for
the public trusteeship of the re-
gents on the one hand and the
completely honest and sincere ex-
preston of opinion of the members
of the university community on
the other" But that the regents
were as responsible in their public
trusteeship seemed dubious; the
most recent poll of public opinion
in Texas showed that voters fav-
ored school Indignation by 2 to 1.
Students Gather Each Morning
The students have been more
cheered by the faculty than sad
dened by the regents. Encouraged
in their forceful, legal, quiet re-
bellion, they gather each morning
near the administration building,
where, beneath the university tow
er, they recite over and over in
unison the inscription written
there as the university's motto:
Eye shall know the truth and the
truth shall make you free"

for everyone and he hears us all
when we pray.
In his Introductory remarks Rev.
Diggs pointed out that man has
been able to tame all kinds of
animals but has not of himself to
be able to tame the tongue.
The tongue is an evil, never still
and full of deadly poison. Other
parts of the body are limited in
their degree of sin but the tongue
is the one member of the body
that has no limits.
Rev. Diggs continued that the
tongue can be used for, good and
evil and might be classified as a
steer, a ships helm and as a
spark. Far two many christians
carry both gossip and gospel.
When we give our lives to Christ,
we promise to be witnesses. Those
who criticize are weak and as
christians we must be strong in
the faith.
Rev. Diggs concluded with these
words to those who are weak:
Pray for the inner peace; do not
ally yourself with forces Of evil,
speak only the truth; give and re-
ceive constructive criticism mot
fault finding), do not SANDER, do
not let the selfish desires for
material things be the motivating
factor in your life, playing ends
against the middle. With these as
our guide posts we can speak only
the truth and move forward in the
grace of God.

About a month ago, a Chicago
public school teacher - Mrs. Dor
ris Baker who openly participated
in the Chicago school segregation
controversy, was Immediately sus-
pended by School Supt. Benjamin
c. Willis and was officially fired
by the Board of Education last
week.
The hooded teachers, with only
their eyes visible, spoke critically
of the city's school administration
through a small opening in a
three-sided booth placed on the
stage.
Sponsored By Two
The meeting was sponsored by
the Temporary Woodlawn Organ
ization (TWO), formed about 10
months ago in the Woodlawn area,
the group that led a walkout Of
about $50 spectators at a public
hearing before the school board
Oct. 16.
Dispositions were read from vari-
GUS civic and religious organiza-
tons, as well as from teachers and
parents.
The teachers, white and Negro,
speaking to a mixed audience,
charged that:
1. Because of the gerrymander-
ing of school district lines, Negro
children attend overcrowd e d
schools while there are empty
seats in neighboring white schools.
2. Out of the $4,000 children on
double shift classes in Chicago,
10000 are Negroes.
8. There is a shortage Of school
books and supplies in Negro class
rooms.
John ]. Farrell, president Of the
Catholic inter-racial council, said
the board of education should not
make it a practice to assign Ne
gro school administrators only to
schools in Negro neighborhoods.
The Temporary Woodlawn Or
ganization last week renewed its
demand that Supt. Benjamin Will
lis resign.
The willis years" have been
years of segregation in Chicago
schools, the organization charged.
A total Of $1,049 was collected
at the rally to support a pending
federal court suit which; charges
segregation practices in Chicago
schools.
