poor because the soil on Sand

When Commander Shepard
climbed out of his space cap
sule after his historic flight as
our first astronaut, he learned
that the school board of Deer
field, Ill. had named it's new
junior high school the Alan B.
Shepard school.
But the all-White Chicago
suburb has another less happy
distinction in regard to space.
Deerfield has been trying to
prevent Modern Community
Developers f + m building
fifty-one homie project in the
suburb because ten of the houses
were to be sold to Negroes.
Building inspectors found ''tech-
nical defects" in the first two
dwellings built, and the Park
Board later condemned the sub
division for park site.
But bias hasn't won the day.
Med President Morris Milgram
went to court with the COM
plant that the Park Board was
''using its power of eminent
domain for the sole and exclu-
sive purpose of preventing the
sale of homes by the developer
to Negroes in violation of the
developers right to equal pro-
lection of the law" The Illinois
Supreme Court ruled last month
that this charge was SO serious
that, if proved, it would consti-
tute "a denial of the necessary
prerequisites to condemnation
necessity and public use." The
case has been sent back to the
Lake County court for full
hearing.

SAN DIEGO, Calif. tR - A husky 14-year-old boy, who watched two men die as they drifted on a flimsy raft. was re- covering in a hospital Saturday after three days of tragedy and terror at sea.
 Terry McClelland, a blond high school athlete from Huntington Beach, Calif., was rescued Fri day by a fishing boat 90 miles southwest of San Diego.
 Transferred to a submarine, he arrived Friday night in San Diego. He was pronounced in fairly good condition at hospital
 He told newsmen a rambling tale about three terrible days of shipWreck, thirst, delirium, death, hunger, heat and blinding glare of sun, sea and sky.
 He and his companions - Rus sell Bradford, AS, of Huntington Beach, his mothers stepfather, and Alvin Hartman, 57, of nearby Santa Ana, Bradford's friend - set out for a months fishing cruise off Mexico last Tuesday.
 After setting out from Newport Beach in their 36-foot boat, they tried riding at anchor that night
 "The sea anchor was pulling on the boat" 1.-Two big sWells pick the boat" Two big swells pick ed up the boat and pulled the bot tom out. :.
 Grandpa Bradford said to cut the raft loose. .'
 The three fishermen got aboard six-by- -three-foot raft of balse- wood and cork. Its bottom con- sisted only of rope netting through which a few timbers were looped and water sloshed through the bottom continually.
 They tried to attract severa passing vessels Wednesday, theil first day on the raft. Although

they waved rags and poles, no one stopped.
 They had no food or water, only few packs of cigarettes that Hartman grabbed before leaving the boat.
 After waiting in vain for res cuers under blinding hot sun, Hartman went crazy on the sec ond day" Terry said.
 "He started falling in the water and the raft turned over," the boy added. "Grandad got him back on the raft and gave him mouth-to- mouth respiration. But it didn't work"
 After Hartman died, Bradford lashed the body to the raft.
 Then, the boy continued, my grandfather went crazy from sec ing Al go crazy. He kept scream ing and yelling and falling into the water.
 q kept telling him: 'Grandad, don't die, don't leave me here alone."
 He fell asleep, Terry said, and when he awoke, Bradford was dead. He lashed him to the raft with Hartman - and drifted on.
 Early Friday morning, while fog hung low over the Pacific, the raft was spotted by seamen aboard the Ruth Marie, an ocean fishing boat.
 Terry was taken aboard. The rescuers covere d Hartman's s body but Bradford's body slipped from the raft and disappeared.

NEA Stands Firm
 On Supreme Courts Desegregation Order

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. R - For the first time in six stormy years, the National Education Association today stands on firm platform of support for the Supreme Courts desegregation order of May 1854.
 In the last hectic day of a hectic week, the NEA Friday adopted it's strongest-ever policy statement on the issue which since 1855 has split northern and south ern affiliates into bitterly war ring camps.
 It took two hours and nine min utes of debate before the NEA' s representatives assembly could agree on resolution which pledged "continued support of the U. s. Supreme Courts decision on school desegregation.'
 In comparison to previous con- Ventions, however, harmony was supreme. In the end, the resolu- | tion was passed by a large ma jority, although the white affili- ates in the southern states were almost solidly against it.
 In other sections winding up it's 99th convention, the NEA also: Approved a resolution urging a broad program of federal support for education. Although President Kennedy's three-year, $2.5 billion program to build classrooms and raise teachers salaries was not specifically mentioned in the reso- lution, this is the legislation the NEA wants.
 Passed a resolution which in ef- feet bars the use of a strike by teachers to enforce salary demand.
 Elected Mrs. Hazel Blanchard, elementary principal of Fresno, Calif, vice president and presi- dent-elect. Mrs. Blanchard will take over the top NEA post at the Denver convention next sum- mer. She defeated Miss Lucille Carroll, high school teacher from Wooster, Ohio, by vote of 2,86( to 2,054.

extension horticulturist at the
University of Delaware.
This condition often is caus-
ed when the leaves come in
contact with the rim of clay
flower pots. Clay pots absorb
salts from soil, water and fer
tilizer and form a deposit around
the rim of the pot. When the
leaves and stems come in con-
tact with this deposit they with
er and die. So, Mr.. Stevens
explains, the problem, called
petiole rot, can't be blamed on
insects or plant disease. Cow
ering the rim of the pot with
a continuous strip of aluminium
foil or enclosing the whole pot
in foil, keeps the stems and
leaves away from the salt de-
posits," Stevens says.
If this doesn't solve your
problem you'd better see if in
sects or a plant disease is caus-
ing the leaves to die.

Ewes Should Be
Fed More Prior
To Lambing Time

Ewes gaining weight going
into lambing season will raise
more lambs than ewes in poor

Vapaa says.
A good many lambs can be
saved each year by a little ex-
ira feed prior to lambing time.
Ewes that are strong and gain
ing in weight will drop vigor-
GUS lambs and furnish plenty of
milk.
Farm flock owners doing sup
Elemental feeding in late win
ter should pay particular atten-
ton to the condition of the
ewes. Most ewes are carrying
a three-quarter fleece of wool
and may look to be in good
condition, while actually losing

quires some protein supplement,
but more important would be

2 Pct. Acreage
Reduction Asked
States Potato

The u. S. Department of
Agriculture today recommended
that Delaware growers reduce
their total acreage of summer
and fall potatoes this year by
2%, or to l0,750 acres.
In issuing its acreage-market-
ing guides, USDA recommend
ed specifically that growers:
Cut acreage of early-summer
potatoes by 2 percent from last
year;
no change from last
year in acreage planted to late
summer potatoes;
Cut acreage planted to fall
crop potatoes S percent from
last year.
If growers get average yields
on the recommended l,202, 300
acres of potatoes, their summer
and fall crops combined will to-
tai 2l3 million cwt. This would
be A percent smaller than the
1860 crop, but almost equal to
the 1859 crop.
For all the potato-growing
seasons of 1861 (adding winter
and spring to these summer and
fall crops), USDA's recommend.
ed guides total l,396,450 acres
of potatoes, which is A percent
smaller than 1860 paintings. Al
average yields, this acreage
would produce a crop of 245
million cwt.-a marketing guide
which is 5 percent less than
last years large crop.
Consumption of potatoes, per,
person, during the 1861 market
ing year is expected to continue
lat about the same levels as ir
1860 and 1859. However, the
U. S. population continues tc
increase, and total consumption
of potatoes for food in 1861 /.
expected to be up slightly from
1860 Accordingly USDA ha.
