 Highly Successful

The Chamber of Commerce charter flight to neighboring towns of Unalakleet and Kotze bue was a big success with every seat taken on the flight, made possible by Wien Airlines.

 Gardens are being planted and the village hopes to have more produce to sell than in previous years. Unalakleet is working on a sewage and water project and for extension of roads in that area. A delicious luncheon was served at the Unalakleet Lodge.
 At Kotzebue the group had a tour of the new hospital which was followed by hospitality hour at the Bullock residence. Steve Salinas prepared a fine steak din- her for the group at his reStau- rant.
 A meeting was held with the Kotzebue Chamber with Rex Bowen presiding and much in- terest was shown in the Midnight Sun Festival.
 At both Unalakleet and Kotze- bue the feeling of a closer unity was expressed by this trip and the hope that there would be more of them.
 Several of the women were in colorful costume for the trip and the men were in colorful vests.
 In the party were:
 Erica Juska, Lilly Tungwenuk, MT and Mrs. Arthur Nagozruk, MT. and Mrs. Jim Mclean Don Hoover, Donna Morgan, Beverly Morgan, Alfred Mazonna, Fred Kungesuk, Billy Muller.

Ballots on Integrotion

The Washington Bridge
League is destroying, unopened
all ballots being returned by
members in a referendum or
admitting Negroes as members
A second set of 1900 ballots
is going out this week. If the
vote is for integration, segre-
gationistS in the league may
bolt and form second league
an officer predicted today.
The second set of ballots, like
the first, will not be completely
counted until August-too late
to permit Washington Negroes
to play officially in the Ameri-
can Contract Bridge Leagues
summer national champion
ships, beginning Saturday at
the Sheraton-Park Hotel.
SegregatiOns to Reply
The first referendum was
voided by WBL directors after
complaints about pro-integra-
ton letters written by two di-
rectors and circulated to the
league membership. The second
referendum will permit segre-
gationists to reply.
Ballots are due back by
August "a, the league president,
WILDER L. Norris, said today.
Five years ago the league
voted against integration.
The situation is unusual here
because leagues belonging to
the WBL may admit Negroes.
But a Negro member of the
Federal Bridge League, for in
stance, is not considered a
member of the WBL, even
though the Federal group is a
WBL member.
Won't Check Cards

cannot play as official members
in. the ACBL meet.

irony of a situation in which
Detroit Negroes can play but
Evening star., 1961-07-24

Washington Negroes are barred
the WBL directors have voted
not to check membership cards
in the tournament.
(The WBL has control moi
only over its own membership
but also over participants al
any meet in this area.)
Between eight and 20 Wash
ington Negroes are expected to
play in the national meet here
If any tournament events are
won by Negroes, the WBL will
face another problem,
The Negroes from this area
will not be awarded master
points by the ACBL because
they are not NCBL members.
But will the WBL list a WASH
ington' Negro player as a win
.ner?
May Form New League
Mr.. Norris indicated today
that a pro-integration vote
hre may result in a segregation
league being formed.
The segregation group, how
ever, might then be refused
ACBL membership. At present,
the ACBL permits only one
member league to have author
ity in an area. The ACBL
already has refused to permit
a separate integrated league to
be formed here.
The WBL has authority over
leagues throughout the Metro
politan Area. The nearest
league to the north is centered
in Baltimore; the nearest to
the South in Richmond. Both
are segregated.
There are indications. how
ever, that if Washington inte-
