ing development was named In

as pastor Of st. Charles Roman
Catholic church in Harlem.
Regarding his life membership
in the NAACP, Cardinal Spellman
said:
II had the opportunity in 1915
of sending my congratulations and
good wishes TO the NauonaI AS
ISOLATION for the Advancement Of
Colored People on its 10th anniver-
sary, of which I have the honor Of
being a nfe member"
Afterwards, it was disclosed that

THE WEEK IN

BY ALBERT ANDERSON

Chicago (ANP)-It never take!
great deal Of persuasion to bring
out the best in pianist Bill Evans
However, on his new leader-disk
called Interplay, on the River

Evans, even as the leader, is II
fast jazz company, gigging will

talented, young trumpetist Freddie

collaborators.
This fine disk is the feature Of
the review this week. Details OF
this and other waslings in the jazz

tar; Percy Heath, bass; Jones
drums. Tunes: you and the Night
and the Music; when You Wish
Upon q Star; "I'n Never Smile
Again; Interplay; You Go to
My Head; Wrap Your Torubles
in Dreams"
The title of this LIP is very ap-
propriate, for interplay Is exactly
what occurs throughout the ses-
sion Evans plays enough, solo,
wise, to assert his leadership, but
for the most part he shares the
honors with his men, from whom
he gets fine support and good
background music The quintet
evans formerly directed trios)
also plays delightfully."- together.
The title tune Is also the best In
the set, although 1t gets a strong
challenge from the tearjerker

Another feature of the disk is the
fine rhythmic of the orchestra

former, but he is a fine musician
who has the ability to breathe new
life into old tunes and fashion new
approaches for others He also
composes well - while playing E.
Listen, for example, to his version
Of Swamp Girl" and see If you
don't agree that it doesn't follow
any regular pattern Lewis
changes the theme at least three
times But this greatest dis
play of inventiveness comes or
the old Irish tune, Loeb Lomond.
While playing melodiously, Lewis

DAYTIME TV
By FRANK JUDGE

ring IN new soap opera
seems like a logical step.
But it took Jeanne Baird several
years to make the switch.
Jeanne is still remembered around
some ad agencies as queen of the
commercials" because of the number
of selling jobs she has had on TV,
including soap company accounts.
MOSTLY such chores were done in
between acting jobs in the movies
and on TV," Jeanne explains.
Since ben Jerrod" is the show NBC
hopes will help the network to domi-
nate afternoon TV programing, it
has thrown the usual soap opera budg-
ct away for this series.
1t started by acquiring Michael
Ryan, former star of the "As the
World Turns" series, to be the title
star, and it signed veteran character
actor Addison Richards as co-star.
Because this is the first soap opera
regularly telecast in color, NBC de-
cided to use its vast color facilities
in Burbank, Calf Production execu-
tives, including director Fred Carney,
Arts brother, we're sent out from New
York.
Jeanne burrows a beautiful set of
eyebrows when Ben Jerrod" is de-
scribed as soap opera Ia term pinned
on such serials because originally they
were sponsored only by soap COM
panies).
I'VE don't call them that out on

television or the movies"
Jeanne, who portrays Richards
daughter, has many TV credits.
1--WE done Bonanza, Today, IT
Sunset Strip, Perry Mason, 'Henne-
sey', -Four Star Playhouse and lots
of other shows" she says.
Her movie work includes Get Out
Of Town" The High Cost of Loving"
"The Drill Instructor" and ANDY
Hardy Comes Home"
In the Ben Jerrod" series, Jeanne
is Agnes Abbott, daughter and secre-
tary to former Judge Abbott, who is
practicing law, but not very success
fully. Ryan, as Jerrod, is a young
criminal lawyer seeking more mean
ingful way of life.
From that triangular starting point,
ben Jerrod" has problems inside of
problems.
In private life, Jeanne has very few
problems.
"But a couple of big assets" she
says. MY husband, Bill, and our two
year-old daughter, Victoria"

Favors Intermarriage:
White NC. Minister
Advocates Marriage
AS Problem Solution

Greensboro, NC. (ANP) - A
white minister from Chapel Hill,
N. c. advocated intermarriage as
a solution to the race problem in
an address before the second an
nual human relations institute.
Rev. Charles M. Jones, pastor of
the Community Church of Chapel
Hill, told the final session Of the
institute that I'VE must move from
desegregation to integration."
I'VE are afraid of intermarriage
which is a human thing" the
speaker said. People apologize
and say it really won't happen but
I say we cannot have the highest
human relations without solving
the problem of the races by inter-
marriage"
Let's not pussyfoot," he said
Human relations between people
means the right to belong to each
other in church, family, club OF
school"

THEFT OF BILLEOLDS
RESULTS IN ARREST
EOP PETIT IAPCENY

A floorwalker for the Donaldson
Golden Rule Department store in
st. Paul arrested Preston Punch,
% of the Windsor Hotel, 33 jack
son, Apartment 2O8, after he had
taken some billfolds from the
counter and attempted to leave
the store. The theft occurred on
March r.
The employee of the store told
st. Paul police that Punch had
originally taken four billfolds and
placed them in a newspaper and
headed for the door. When he be-
came aware he was being followed
he dropped two of them. The total
value of the billfolds was estimated
at $2O.45.
Preston Punch appeared in St.
Paul municipal court on March 13,
and received a rs day workhouse
term.

Tony, the Bearcats' captain, en-
tered college without any scholar
ship aid and did not receive any
until he proved he was estab-
lished on the freshman team. Not
only is Yates the teams inspira-
tional leader, he is the quarter
back, the man who sets up the
plays. He is a cool operator.
This is the story they tell about
Tony:
In a game with Duquense last
season, teammate Ron Bonham
scoring a basket, caught an elbow
in the process. Bonham stood un-
der the basket, somewhat dazed
holding his head. Yates ran past
Bonham and chided him, Rub it
later; get back on defense now"
Tall Wilson went to UC as a
great scorer. Wilson is proud of
the fact that he has learned to
master defense. He also is a re-
bounding demon. The 6-S Wilson
is terrific on both boards and pos
sesses amazing balance and agility
for a man his size. Look for him
to be a serious All-American con-
tender next year.

VAGRANT TO APPEAR
ON MARCH 22ND

Isaac Virgil Davis, %, formerly
of the Bethel Hotel AS Wacouta,
was arrested on a vagrancy charge
on March 13, following a complaint
that he threatened a person in the
hotel.
Police were told by the hotel
chaplain that Davis had been act
ing in a disorderly manner and
Davis was warned and released.
A short time later police re-
ceived another call to the hotel be-
cause of a disturbance and the per-
petrator was again Davis. Since
Davis no longer resided at the
hotel and he had no money, he was
arrested on a vagrancy charge and
taken to the city jail.

Says Segregation
Must Die In US

ican freedom is to live, then all
segregation must die"

ments to the United States Consti-
tuition" Combs told the Palmer

preme court outlawing segregation
were but interest payments"

cipal in spite Of our tremendous
bank account Of friendly harmony
without conformity" he said.

him for providing opportunities for
all Kentucky residents regardless
of race, creed or color.
