My Ambitions Running Low

My Ambitions Running Low
Like rodum and gasoline,
PropeIlonts for missile,
Electric current kerosene
And steam that blows whistle,
Ambition makes q person rise
And keeps him on the run,
Work overtime with Ieoden eyes,
And have no time for fun.
1t is shame it doesn't come
In liquid form or pellet
In bottle, can drum, .
With places where they sell it.
For my ambitions running low
And I'd be pleased and thankful
IT there we're some place thot ! could 90
And get myself tonkfuII.
But would now9 doubt it much,
Because, my friends, you see,
! am ofroid ambition miqht
Provide some work for me-
Some men there are who seek for wealth,
Are with ambition blessed,
But from work have long retired
And Ioofine suits me best

COS Space Age

THE time seems near when the Unit
ed States or Russia, or both, will put
man into space. The Russians, how
ever, are working on a more far-each-
ing project They intend to send man
into orbit.
At Cape Canaveral, the United States
is preparing to shoot man up into
space and back down again : not into
an orbit but to reach moderately high
altitude. The u S. project is a bit less
complicated than the Russian but the
successful completion of either would
be of great historical significance.
If the space man is successfully and
safely recovered in these attempts, we
will have actually entered the age
of manned flight through outer space.
After this start, the developments are
sure to come at fast pace - just as
they did with the airplane.
The Wrights flew first just after the
turn of the century By the time Of
World War |, pilots were fighting each

WHAT happened Tuesday in Court?"
That question has been asked many
times in Prince Edward County within
the past two days Briefly, we will try
to put the action of the court in per-
spective.
Judge Oren Lewis agreed to allow the
NAACP to file supplemental COM
plants against Prince Edward County,
and departments of the State of Vir-
ginia to prohibit any funds derived
from taxes being used to support direct-
ly or indirectly private schools, which
exclude the Negro plaintiffs by reason
of race. This is merely ruling by the
Court that the NAACP could file the
amended pleading, and does not con-
stitute a decision in any respect upon
any of the issues attempted to be raised
by this new pleading. May was set to
hear motions by attorneys on these COM
plants.
No arguments have been made and no
pleas made by the defense, except to
question the jurisdiction of the Court.
The principal question was: Whether
the complaints should be heard as
amendments to the original 1851 suit,
or should be filed as new suits. Second
ly, whether the federal courts have any
power to grant the relief asked. Judge
Lewis decided that he Would hear the
complaints further.
1t would appear to us that neither
side won or lost anything at the hear
ing, as only matter of jurisdiction

because the maharaja isn't apparently
in the mood to sell.
And on such whims the fate Of love
revolves! Some would say that Mohinl
should be content with some other tiger,
and that is a point view. But Mohini
wants a white tiger, and, after all, who
is to say that tigers should not have

aircraft were taking pictures, dropping
bombs and fighting it out in the skies
with machine guns.
If progress would follow at similar
pace, within ten years of the first flight
into outer space, or whereabouts, man
would be soaring around the world, in
DRIFTING satellites, going up and down
on rockets and doing various things in
outer space - such as taking pictures,
measuring the elements, etc.
And the day must come, eventually,
when individuals will travel in space
ships and even with single-plane space
contraptions - just as the funnies pre-
dicted years ago.
The sixties will probably be remem-
bered in history as the decade when man
finally broke the shackles of the earth S
atmosphere and went out beyond, into
the vast unknown reaches of outer
space, to begin his discovery Of the
many, many earths and plants both far
and Near. RUSSIA claims to have put
a man in orbit since this was written.)

The latter races were at 7
furlongs. Yesterdays race was
