New York (ANP) - Lew Leslie,
73-year-old former entertainer and
producer who was credited with
discovering such famous singers as
Ethel Waters and Leona Horne,
died here last week after an illness
of several weeks.
Leslie, white, was also given
credit for giving Negro perform

awaken the world to the Negro's
great musical talent.
In addition to Miss Waters and
Miss Horne, Leslie repeatedly also
discovered the great, tap dancer
the late Bill Robinson and late mu-
sical comedy star Florence Mills.
A former song-and-dance man,

Fine For The Shape I'm In
BY HI. L. SELLARS, Pembroke, Ga.


Lots Of folks see me- but no one knows
How do manage to stay on the go
There's nothing whatever the matter with me
I'm just fine as can be,
have arthritis in both my knees
And when talk, talk with wheese,
My pulse is weak, and my blood Is low
The Lord only, knows how keep on the go,
But, I'm fine for the shape I'm in.
think my liver is out Of whack
And a terrible pain Is in my back,
Ny hearing is poor, my sight Is dim
Most every thing is out of trim,
The doctor says my days are few
For every time he finds something new,
And the way stagger sure is crime
I'm likely to drop at most any time,
But, I'm fine for the shape I'm in.
My fingers are ugly, and stiff in the joints
And my nails impossible to keep in points,
Sleepless, lie night after night
And in the morning, I'm just in fright,
My memory's failing, my head is in a spin
I'm practically living on aspirin,
The moral of this tale now unfold
Is for you and me, who growing DID,
T1s better to say "Tm fine with a grin
Cause it will surely help the shape we're in.

Refused Apartment
Negro Couple Touch
of Sif-Ins

Long Beach, N. Y. (ANP) -
The refusal last week of a build
ing superintendent to rent a va
cant apartment to Negro couple
touched off a series of sit-in DEM
onstartions here in which seven
Negroes and six white persons
were arrested.
The demonstrations started af-
ter Mr.. and Mrs. Ernest Saxton
were refused the apartment in the
building, which was not identified.
Those arrested are members of
the Congress of Racial Equality
and the NAACP. They were re-
leased on bail or in the custody of
their attorney.
A spokesman for the Long
Island CORE and NAACP chap
ters said a white woman went to
the six-story apartment building
recently to inquire about renting
an apartment for friends"
When she was told by the build
ing superintendent that there was
"a vacant apartment, she returned
"a week later and was informed
that the vacancy stin existed. But
when she brought in Mr.. and Mrs.
Saxton and said they were the
friends" who wanted the apart
ment, the superintendent declined.
This touched off the series of
protest demonstrations. The 13
were arrested after the superin-
tendent filed a complaint with po-
lice.

ination housing law.

Sampson Exhibits Forest Knobs

Forest Knobs In Prince
Georges County, site Of a Fall
Festival Preview of "a
Homes exhibit, is the result Of
diversification.
Unlike most manufacturing
diversification, however, this
was not one Of product but Of
location.
The builder, Sa mpson
Brothers, was until two years
ago the biggest builder Of
homes in the Pittsburgh area.
Then a local recession set In.
AS Harold Sampson put it
recently when he and Russell
Miller moved their firms
headquarters here:
I'VE decided to diversity
geographically because we're
not interested in apartments
and S hopping centers. We
build only homes and COM
munities on the theory that
you should do one thing, and
do 1t right"
Since the firm opened For
est Knobs last year, it has
completed $50 homes there
out Of a total Of 400 it plans
for the community.
At present there are four
model homes on display, all
of which have been decorated
by Woodward & Lothrop.
They are built to designs by
the widely-known New York
architect Herman York. The
houses have four and five
bedrooms and two and q half
bathrooms.
Prices at Forest Knolls
range from $18,99O to $24, 400
and sales are handled by the
building firm itself.
Sampson Brothers, W b l c b
built more than 10000 homes
in Pennsylvania before COM
ing into the Washington mar
ket, believes that Festival Wis
itors will enjoy such features
of the homes as the carpOrts,
custom-designed kitchens, fire
side rooms, dining rooms
with balcony, central air con-
ditioning, large closet space
ana ample storage faclntleS.
Directions to reach the de-
velopment, as furnished by
the building firm, are:

and continue south ~ miles
