BOBBY DARN CAST !
AS RACE ,HATER9 R9.sA aasl q

ftr sstf q
In Point Blank, - singer-actor
Bobby DARN is cast in a role which
runs against the grain of his be-
liefs and practices in real life, He
is cast as a race-hating American
Nazi Bund leader who, during war
time Imprisonment, ventsb, his
spleen on the Negro psychiatrist
who is assigned to treat hims Sid
ney Potter.
Oddly enough. Darin's manager,
Steve Blauner, faced an American
Nazi outside the Huntington Hart
ford Theatre in Hollywood on the
opening night of Sammy Davis,
Jr.'s one-man show a year ago.
This bigot, and two or three others,
had come to picket Davis at a time
when certain people were harass-
ing him over his interracial rO-
nance with Actress Mai Britt.
Blauner, 27O-pound ex-athlete
colIared one of the ''Nazis' and
knocked him flat with a powerful
blow.
The big challenge in ''Point
Blank" DARN says, Stems from
the fact that, in this movie, l must
play a role which is completely
foreign to me. l must be convinc
ing, as an actor, in portrayal oi
someone who is totally different
from me"

Ernie Banks Winds
Up Tour With
GIobetrotters

| San Francisco - Basketball, as
it is played by the inimitable Har-
lem Globetrotters, is more taxing
on an athlete physically than maj
or league baseball, according to
Ernie Banks, star of the Chicago
Cubs.
The famous home run Slugger
who has been touring the west
coast with Abe Saperstein's tire
less cage wizards, says he didn't
realize how gruelling the Globe
trotters' schedule is.
Its amazing how the Trotters
play night after night all over the
United States" declared Ernie,
land still play the high class brand
of baseball that they do. They run
all day and all night and never
seem to get tired. Then, too, they
travel all the time, all over the
country and it never seems to both
er them"
Banks, who has been serving as
master of ceremonies during the
Globetrotters' -scintillating half
time shows, says a big league team
could not possibly maintain such
a pace every day.
1--WE just couldn't do it, he said.
Baseball players would be ex-
hausted in two weeks, if they didn't
get some rest. But the TrOtters,
especially fellows like Meadowlark
Lemon, Murphy Summons and
others, never seem to tire. They
Iput on a great show every night.
It's really something to see how
sensational they are, game after
game. F..
Banks will wind up his tour with
the Globetrotters next week. He
must report to the Cubs training
camp at Mesa, Ariz.. on Feb. .26th.
Meantime, he will take a short
vacation in Los Angeles. 'It's been
great fun travelling with the Trot.

NAACP UNIT HITS
THEATRE BIAS

st. Petersburg, Fla. - The Ma
ACP here has launched an assault
on theatre Jim Crow through daily
attempts to purchase tickets.
NAACP efforts resulted this
week in several closings of theatres
belonging to the Florida Theatre
Chain.
The manager of one theatre,
where "King of Kings is playing,
roped off the entrance, allowing
whites to enter but barring Ne
groes.
He claimed that he is operating
business and can therefore exclude
persons of his choice. He cited the
Florida trespass law which allows
a business owner or agent to order
a person to leave the premises in
the presence of police officer.
If the person does not leave, the
officer is required to make an
arrest. This same manager has
retained a bouncer.
Leon C. Cox, NAACP president
said that the campaign would CON-
tinue and added that units of fifty
Negroes have been concentrating
on each theatre.

NAACP Seeks Fire
Dept. Infegratiol!n J!

Amityville, N. Y. New York
State Senator James Watson this
week assured DR.. Eugene T. Reed,
president of the New York State
NAACP Conference, that he will
introduce legislation to ban lily
white volunteer fire departments
throughout the state.
The Democratic State Senator's
pledge followed announcement of
a statewide NAACP drive to end
the policy of all-white volunteer
fire departments receiving sub
stantial portion of their operating
funds from public taxes.
DR.. Reed has asked the presi-
dents Of the SO NAAc2 branches
in New York to verify whether or
not their local volunteer fire de-
partments have Negroes.
If they do not, DR.. Reed has in
structed that each NAACP unit
have five Negroes apply for mem
bership Immediately in their local
fire departments.
This project was triggered by
refusal of the Lakeview, Long Is
land, fire department to accept
Eugene T. Reed (no relation to
the NAACP officiaD as a member.
An independent survey of five
Long Island cities with heavy Ne
gro populations indicated that none
has or has had Negroes in their
volunteer fire departments.
One Lakeview fire department
official is reported to have told
the independent survey group that
I'VE can't have Negroes associat-
ing with whites.
He is said to have added that
Reed (the applicant) might want
to dance with our wives

NAACP Asks Ban On
Spelling Bee Bias

New York = The National AS
sociation for the Advancement Of
Colored People has called upon
the Scripps- Howard Newspapers,
sponsors of the National Spelling
Bee, to cancel agreements with
The Lynchburg (Va.) News and
other local publications which
sponsor the contest on racially
discriminatory basis. ~

secretary, sent telegram to
James H. Wagner, director, Ma.
tional Spelling Bee, on Jan. 26, as.
rserting that where. local spons'
ors persist in exclusionary policy
agreement between national local
sponsors should be cancelled"
Mr.. wilkins telegram followed
protest by the Association
branch in Lynchburg against the
barring of Negro school children
from the contest under auspices
locally of the Lynchburg News.
The full. text of Mr.. Wilkins tele'
gram to Mr.. Wagner follows:

pie strongly condemns action

ing participation of Negro chill
dren in the local spelling con-
test. We believe national spons-
ors Should withhold sanction

ed on racially discriminatory
basis. Though Washington. D.

exclusion of Negro children in

A Rugged American

Warren Austin, who died this week
at the age of IS, had many OF the rugged
qualities attributed to his native Yer
mont.
Those who remember him in the
United States Senate in the early l93Os
remember a legislator of strong and
outSpoken convictions, eloquent as a
debater In period when great and small
issues alike were argued forcefully on
the chamber floor. Mr.. Austin was a
power In the Republican bloc, but his
partisanShip stopped far short Of intrud-
Ing upon his judgment OF the national
interest in a world that was changing
profoundly by the later 1930s. It was
then that he recognized, as did a dis
tinguished Republican colleague OF that
time, the late Senator Arthur Vanden-
berg OF Michigan, that "isolationism is
dead" and he was a strong supporter
OF the bipartisan Tor nonpartisan) for
eign policy then emerging.
He was a believer in the PRINCIPLES
and ideals underlying establishment OF
the United Nations, and by appointment
OF President Truman, Democrat, he was
our Ambassador TO that organization
from l946 to 1853 His vigor and ability
In that post were recognized, and not
least OF all by the Russians, targets OF
his anger, In the early and critical days
OF the cold war and the Korean conflict.
Mr.. Truman summed up the New
Englander's character and record we'll
when he expressed his sorrow at Mr..
AustinS death. HE was" the former
President said, IAN able and distin-
guished Senator, and he did wonderful
Job while he was in public service"

The Faster the Better

1t is welcome news, as far as 1t goes,
that hundreds of Russians, including
women and children, sailed out of Ha-
vana on Christmas Day, presumably to
return to their homeland. What should
be noted, however, is that the men in
this group appeared to be ordinary con-
struction workers, not technicians or
soldiers, and that diSturbingly large So
Wet combat units still are stationed in
Cuba.
AS President Kennedy declared some
weeks ago, these units, made up of
perhaps as many as 10000 men, are
supposed to go back to the USSR 'in due
course" At any rate, Nikita KhruShchev
has given the impression that he has
every intention Of withdrawing them, as
he has already withdrawn Russian mis-
SileS and bomberS. But he has been
vague as to when the bulk of the troops
will be shipped home.
In that respect, as Secretary of State
RuSk observed on December 10, our
country has received only "a very inexact
indication" and the Kremlin therefore
needs to be reminded that the United
States cannot accept as normal "any
Soviet military presence" in Cuba And
Mr.. Kennedy, in his December IA ap-
pearance before the Economic Club of
New York, made the same point, more
emphatically, by declaring as follows:
Mr.. Khrushchev in his agreement only
committed himself to the withdrawal Of the
missiles and the bombers and the manpower
which was connected with the maintenance
Of those forces. That would amount to sew
eral thousand. In addition, he stated that
he would be Withdrawing other elements
But that guarantee is not as precise and that
commitment has not been implemented, nor
was 1t as hard as his others, which he has
kept. So this must be q matter Of continuing
concern, and is the reason why we are main
tanning observation and verification by our
own means daily and why we will continue
to do so. And while the matter of Cuba
stin remains unsettled, as long as 1t is Soviet
military base, 1t represents a threat to peace
in the Caribbean. On the other hand, it does
not represent an offensive threat under pres
ent conditions, nor will it be Of course per-
mitted to do so.
What must be hoped for is that the
Christmas exodus of Russians from Ha-
vana will prove to be the start of steady
series Of sailing that will remove all So
Wet combat personnel from the betrayed
and blighted island. The faster this is
done, the better. What the President has
said on the subject speaks pretty much
for itself Certainly, as long as the
Kremlin maintains troops there, CaStros
Cuba can be sure that it will be under
our country's strict surveillance.

Approach to Automotion

Mans constant struggle to adjust
to his own scientific advances now has
a new and hopeful portent in the Kaiser
Steel Corp. formula for meeting the
economic exigencies of the automation
age. How to tackle the problems of
Stepped-up production and displaced
workmen in the new industrial revolu-
tion has called for revolutionary think
ing and planning.
BY far the most imaginative of
ideas has emerged from three years of
study by committee of management,
labor and public memberS-in itself a
unique body-that was an outcropping
OF a 1O4-day strike at the Kaiser plant
in 1859. Its complexities are matched
only by the automated machinery which
has made imperative bold, new manage
ment-labor policy.
In brief, the plan is based on two
main points: ~ As automation cuts
production costs, 32h per cent of the
savings will be passed along to the
workers IN fringe benefits regardless of
company profits and (2) employees who
are displaced by automation will receive
pay while being trained for other Jobs.
In essence, the heart of the idea
is new approach to the profit t-sharing
plan. Instead of emphasis on individual
incentive, it relies on total plant OUTPUT
to provide the savings in which all will
share. But obviously of even greater
Importance is the asSurance-Short of
serious and unavoidable loss of busi-
neSS-that workers will retain their Jobs.
KaiSer's 1000 employees turn out
per cent Of the Nations steel. This
Is drop in the bucket in only one
automated industry, and Kaiser's mod
ern facilities may make such a plan
more adaptable than for some of the
older and larger concerns. But II the
Kaiser employees accept the formula,
as they are expected to, the Nations
industries will follow with interest a
promising start toward solution of one
OF today's knottiest problems, the ulti-
mate objective being a new era of
peaceful labor relations.
