The annual emergency drill of
the Rock Creek Amateur Radio
Association, set for Saturday
and Sunday in Howard County,
will submit the local "hams" to
a more realistic test than they
have faced for some years.
Because of a conflict in dates,
the amateur operators will
have to move away from their
favored surroundings at the
county fair grounds in Gathers
burg, where the Field Day pro-
gram has been held in past
years. In place of the familiar
sheds and cook-house and the
tall trees on which they have
been accustomed to hanging
their antennas, they will oper-
ate in territory completely

The change, however, brings
a welcome challenge, according
to Frank South, a veteran men,
ber of the 15-year-old group.
The necessity of improvising on
a strange site, he pointed out,

gro players at the spring training
camp is a violation Of the Mime
sofa Fair Employment Practices
law.
One section Of the law states:
1T is an Unfair practice for an
employer because of race, color, re-
ligion, creed or national origin to
discriminate against an employee
with respect to his tenure, compen-
sation, terms, upgrading, cOndi-
tons, facilities or privileges Of en-
plOyment.
The segregation of the Mime
sofa Twins Negro players Is ap-
parently covered by the clause
which reads in the FEP law: CON
ditions, facilities or privileges of
employment"
This clause would seem to make
the intended jimcro arrangements
in Orlando, Fla, by a corporation
operating in Minnesota as does the
Twins, in conflict with the state
FEP law.
It is not known whether the
Twins management has been in
formed of the apparent violation,
or not, but one Of the attorneys
who helped draft the law, told this
newspaper Tuesday that the situa-
ton in which the Negro players
find themselves in at Orlando is a
violation of Minnesota law.

Importance of Christian love and

He reported that while no such
integrated facilities now exist, one
new hotel, now under construction
In downtown Orlando, may be fin
ished by midsummer, 1868. Also,
that several other facilities are
either being planned or are under
construction.
Trend Toward Indignation Felt
The feeling of the Twins ad-
ministration is that there is a gen.
eral and immediate trend toward
Indignation in greater Orlando.
And that the pressure Of increased
competition among the existing
hotels with those being planned
will hasten the advent of integra-
ton.
Players Segregation Called
Immoral!
"As the Twins Baseball Club has
stated many times, it deplores the
segregation Of its players in Or
lando, foremost as being immoral
from a humanitarian standpoint.
Secondarily, from a bookkeeping
standpoint, segregation in Orlando
requires a duplication Of record
keeping and bill-paying.
Why The Twins Haven't Moved
The question has been asked:
Why haven't the Twins moved
from Orlando, considering the en-
forced segregation in the housing
and feeding of the players: The
answer simply is: The present
Twins administration inherited a
10-year contract to train in the
city of Orlando, the contract not
to expire until after the spring
of 1864.
THE Twins intend to honor the
contract
Eager For J1mcrO End
THE Twins are eager to see the
end Of segregation of their players
in Orlando. They are confident and
hopeful that this will be accomp-
hshed before the contract expires.
Last Spring, the city lifted its
traditional segregation of the races
in the grandstands of old Tinker
Field, a giant stride forward, in
the opinion of the Twins.
City Growing More Cosmopolitan
This winter, the city has. been
constructing a new stadium for
the Twins in Orlando. The city is
growing more cosmopolitan every
day in the size and the thinking
Of its population. The Twins recog-
nize that considerable prgress is
being made, and are attempting to
work hand-in-hand with Orlando
ans to accomplish as soon as pos
sible the indignation of the players
there"
Continued Segregation May Violate

the Minnesota Twins may find

Extension Agent, Virgin Islands
Agricultural Program,
Kingshill, st. Croix, Virgin Islands
If you raise small livestock
such as sheep and goats, and
have been taking advantage Of
the dry spell by clearing and
cleaning your pastures and
sections, your grass should
now be springing beautifully
this season. Remember, you
cannot expect the young grass
to grow satisfactorily if you
keep your animals on it. You
should be rotating the animals
from section to section or, bet
ter still, you should be able to
move them out into "a section
which has not been graze9 dur
ing the dry spell.
If your situation does not
allow you to move onto a long
rested section, perhaps you
could thin out your flock so
that there would be better bal
ance between the number of
animals you carry and your
present acreage. In any case
just be sure to allow your grass
an ample opportunity to come
back with the coming Spring
rains; so that you will go into
the Summer and Fall with
ample pasturage.

FREEDOM

ACADEMIC FREEDOM rs4.c o
THE COLLEGE of the Virgin Islands will open its doors
shortly. Everyone is agreed that no single event in the past
one hundred years is more important than the founding OF
this college, except the Transfer. 1t speaks for a future rich
in potential for these Islands, and assures that we shall meet
whatever challenge is presented.
PRACTICALLY ALL of the cultural life of these Islands
will revolye around its college, as is the case wherever a col
lege serves a community. Programs have already been set up
which will make this college the most important single link
between the Government and the people, and it this service
continues, there is no end to the good that will come.
THROUGHOUT ALL THIS planning and hope for the
future there is need for absolute academic freedom. At this
early stage of the game all this may seem premature, and wide
eyed optimists may scott at the idea that any such advise could
possibly be necessary. But there is a constant battle between
the forces of freedom and those who do not see that a restrict
ed and limited college is practically useless.
TIME AND AGAIN the examples come of faculty mem
berS and others who suffer because of their opinions, OF col
leges restricted in their programs because Of politics, and Of
college presidents who must constantly skip a tight rope be-
cause OF keeping one eye on the Legislature and another on
his generalization.
THE COLLEGE of the Virgin Islands will open on July
1st. Once on its, way there should be a perfect understanding
between the Government and the College, and the College
and the Senate that the business of the school is education
and preparation for life, It would be the beginning of the
end if ~busy-body legislators want to have hand in the admin
istraton of the College, and even dictate in matters about
which they know precious little. And this is not empty day
dreaming. Many a college and university is stymied in its pro-
gram because the legislature, holding the purse strings, often
seek to punish school officials.
WOULD BE good idea if the College of the Virgin
Islands, once on It's way, is left completely alone, free from
interference. In such an atmosphere the entire Virgin Islands
will be greatly enriched, and a new and finer citizen will
4
emerge.
