NAANAA law
The two players, Sam Jones and
Tom Sanders were refused service
in the coffee shop of the Phoenix
Hotel, where all the players on the
Celtics team were registered. The
team was in Lexington to play an
exhibition game against the st.
Louis Hawks. Both teams are
members of the National Basket
ball Association.
Players Boycott Game
However, Negro players on both
the Celtics and the Hawks teams
refused to play in the game in pro-
test of the racial insult. The Negro
players left by plane for Boston
shortly after the incident.
Boycotting the game were Jones.
Sanders, Bill Russell, K. C. Jones
and AL Butler, of the Celtics team,
and Woody Sauldsberry and Cleo
Hill of the Hawks. Sam Jones and
Hill were former stars at North
Carolina college and Winston
Salem college, respectively.
Players Win Point
In boyCotting the game, the Ne
gro basketball players forced a
stand on the matter. Although the
game ian exhibition for the bene-
fit of the Kentucky Endowment
FUND.- was played, as scheduled,
the pressure brought about quick
apology from the manager of the
hotel, and the quick retort from
Owner Brown.
Different Than Pro Football
Players
The tan players action was also
quite different from that of their
counterpart in football, recently.
Last month, tan players on the
Oakland Raiders and San Fran
cisco 49ers football teams ignored
pleas from the NAACP and CORE
to boycott games against opposing
teams practicing racial segrega-
ton.
Eleven players on the Raiders
team refused plea not to play
against the Houston Oilers because
of the latter teams policy of seq
regating seating for fans at its
home games.

also refused a plea to boycott the
Washington Redskins because the

! player. Negro players on the 49ers

PILGRIM BAPTIST

ITO the Brokenhearted" was the
subject of DR.. Massey's morning
message on Sunday, March 18th.
He told a large gathering that
the message of hope is Gods love
for the broken and contrite heart.
None of us have use for broken
things; we discard them and long
for new things. This does not mean
God does not love new things but
that he loves those things we may
neglect.
DR.. Massey pointed out three
ways God deals with the broken
heart. % He can mend the broken
heart-he takes us from the brink
of the junk pile and makes us
whole again. He is the great Com
forter. God, through Christ, mends
a broken heart. (2) God can use
the broken heart. Often we hear
of a self made man. The fallacy
in this is we are not good enough
to make ourselves into success
without the help of God. When
God is left out, trouble comes and
you can't repair it since you did
not have God in it before.
DR. Massey told of a potter
molding a piece of clay on a wheel.
Suddenly he threw it aside When
asked why he had done this, he
replied. 81 could no longer mold
it because it was full of Jumps"
Many of us are so full of humps
/ that God cannot use us. Jumps like
conceit, pride arrogance, jealousy
and greed. which will not let us
be brotherly.
We must be crushed and rolled
like dough before we are fit for
Gods usage. When Simon denied
Jesus he felt as useless as a lumpy
piece of clay, vet Jesus took him
and remade him; he became the
rock upon which the church was
built.
(3) God loves broken hearts.
A broken spirit and a contrite
heart is acceptable to God. The
minister defined a contrite heart
as a pertinent one-one that is
sorry for what we have done. To
be forgiven we must be willing to
make a change. Contrite means
to be broken in spirit but ready
for use by God.
The challenge is if your heart
! is still like flint, let it be broken;
then let God mend it and after
He has mended it, use it in the
service of God.
You are welcome and urged to
fellowship at the prayer service
every Wednesday at 8 pm.

ton and it's Auxiliaries will be in

Justice Dept. In
Affock On Blessed
Property Deeds

Washington (ANP) - The us
Department of Justice is taking a
long view at the possibility of out
lawing restrictive covenants by
legal means.
This was brought to light this
week by Lee Loevinger of Mime
apolis who is a new Assistant
Attorney General of the United
States.
Loevinger, who has been AS
sociate Justice of the Supreme
Court Of Minnesota, testified be-
fore the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee, Tuesday, on behalf of his
own appointment.
In reply to a question raised by
Senator Heating of New York on
whether antitrust laws are APP
plicable to restrictive covenants
in the transaction of real property,
the Assistant Attorney General
designate, said:
II have delegated a member of
my staff to prepare a memoran-
dun on the possible application of
antitrust laws on restrictive COW
enants."
The Supreme Court outlawed
restrictive covenants on property
in 1947 with the conclusion that
such covenants could not be en-
forced by law.
1t was intimated, however, that
restrictive covenants could be In
cluded in property deeds as sort of
a "gentlemen's agreement" that
property would not be sold to
members Of specific minority
groups. but that they would have
no legal authority.
