SAAC Protest Brings Results:
Park Boord Changes
Mind; NicoIIef GefS
WoFninq House

At its December 18 meeting, the
Minneapolis Park Board agreed to
rescind its earlier decision not to
erect a temporary warming house
at Nicollet Park during the skat-
ing season.
The Park Board had originally
planned to use the main park
building as a warming house this
winter instead Of constructing a
temporary skating shelter as it
has usually done in the past. This
arrangement would have meant
the elimination of many indoor pro-
grams at Nicollet in order TO make
room for the skating fans.
Community concern over the
lack Of a warming house at the
park was expressed to park offic-
tals at a meeting Of the South Side
Athletic Club at Nicollet Park on
December IL. AS a result Of this
and subsequent meetings with rep
resentatves from SSAC, the Park
Board agreed that a temporary
warming house was needed at Mic
oIet Park.
John Hanson, recreation director
at Nicollet, announced that the
indoor program win continue at
the park during the winter months
because a separate warming house
is now available for skaters:
Tap dancing and ballet classes
will be resumed during the week
January 6.
The tumbling class win meet at
3:45 pm. on Fridays.
The Chess club will meet at 7
pm. on Tuesdays.
Teen danceS VIII Degln at I
pm. on Fridays.
The senior citizens group will
meet on Mondays, Wednesdays and
Fridays from 1890 to $3.50 pm.
Mr. Hanson also announced that
winter activities are now being
organized at the Park shedding
club, girls broom hockey team
and several boys hockey teams will
be organized during the next
couple of weeks. All boys and girls
of school age who are interested
in these activities should contact
Mr.. Hanson at Nicollet Park.

Initidte Appeal
For Family Victims
Of Recent Fire

Early Friday morning, Dec. 6.
1858, a fire swept through a IL
story frame house at 631 East 3Sth
St., Minneapolis killing four small
children. Five other members of
the family were physically un-
harmed.
The four fire victims were Mrs.
Dorothy Blaylark's youngest chill
dren, David 1; Steven 5; John 7
and Ricl1y 8, leaving four srrviv-
ing children and Mrs. Blaylark; ;
they are netta II, Raymond 13
Gail 16 and Denise two months.
An appeal to help the family
was slowed after 1t was learned
that the family was an Ado (Aid
to Dependent Children) recipient.
Naturally, many people thought
sending money or aid to the family
would affect the fanily's ADO
grant; because of this and con-
fhcting reports from individuals
and press coverage of the fire, the
Urban League developed a special
interest in the case.
Fred Smith community services
director is in charge of the relief
efforts.
Immediate Needs Pressing
While there are a number Of
circumstances that fostered this
community tragedy, the primary
concern at present, is the immedi-
ate needs of the family, four chill
dren and one adult.
without Sufficient Clothing
The family is still on ADO, how
ever, their allotment has been re-
duced because there are now five
family members. This allotment in
cludes food, clothing, rent, appli-
ance services and other inc1dentals
The Department Of Public We'll
fare is not directly responsible for
securing all Of the needed clothing
furniture and a special or extra
food supply" The family Is without
sufficient supply of clothing for
all family members and enough
furniture to furnish the home they
are intending to move into. Even
with the ADO grant the family
win not be able to adequately re-
place the clothing and household
furnishings destroyed by the fire
without community support. The
specific needs Of the family are:
1. The family has to have $215
to pay the delinquent gas and light
bill before they can get lights and
heat in any other dwelling unit.
(ADC will not pay this back bill.)
2. Clothing and extra food sup
plies for a family Of five.
3. Furniture Of all sorts, chairs.
bedding, silverware, dishes, tables,
blankets, quilts, etc. (The Red
Cross has furnished four beds and
crib with two sheets and blan-
ket for each bed.)

ployment Practices Commission,
The Presidents Committee on
Equal Employment Opportunity
and the Air Line Stewards and
Stewardesses Association, Interna-
tional.
The agreement was repeatedly
the results of direct negotiations
with high officials Of Northwest
Airlines.
Lee Lefbik and Ruth Weyand
attorneys for the ALSSA, had
filed complaints with the Michi-
gan FEPC and the Presidents
Committee charging Northwest
with discrimination in employment
The Presidents Committee was
called in because Northwest holds
government contracts.
Miss White first applied in 1858
in Detroit for employment with
Northwest Airlines as steward
ess. She was rejected and given a
lob as reservations clerk in the
meantime the young woman filed
charges of job discrimination with
the Michigan Fair Employment
Practices Commission.
On June 10, 1862, the Michigan
FEPC issued an order requiring
Northwest to halt discrimination
in Its flight operations and to
place Miss White in its next stew
ardess class.
She entered Northwest training
classes in st. Paud, MINI, in July,
1852 and, according 10 Leibik, was
graduated with grades placing her
In the upper one third Of her class.
She was employed as a stewardess
on Aug. Ii, 1853.
During her employment, attor-
neys for the AISSA claimed in
their complaint, Miss White was
required to take numerous tests
not given to other stewardesses
and was otherwise Disseminated
against because Of her race by
Northwest Airlines, Inc.
In dting reasons for her dis
charge, Northwest officials claimed
that Miss White, who was a child
prodigy had been unable 10 master

with the letter or the spirit order
seven organization executives at
tackled the report as fun Of
double-talk and a mice job Of
whitewashing''.
Twin City Human Rights organ
izauons with Sam H. Jones, execu-
tive director of the st. Paul Urban
League as spokesman claimed that
there are at present five cases Of
alleged race discrimination cur
rently pending before the Mime
apolis FBPC, alone. .."
The statement issued by the
group points up that only two fed
eral agencies the Postoffice and the
us. Veterans administration In
the Twin Cities are taking affirm
ative action in merit employment.
Mr.. Jones and others pointed
out that "the $40 Negroes and 14S
other minority group numbers
found by this survey to be en-
pBoyed by % federal agencies are
found in very token amounts out
side of the two above agencies.
Furthermore" the organiza-
tions stated: 1--WE fam to see how
the survey as reported in the press
could conclude non-discriminatioD
exists wtAn II, showed -DaAny In
equities. It indicated that while 20
percent Of the white federal en-
ployees In the Twin Cities earned
more than $500 a year, only II
percent of the Negro federal en-
ployees earned this amount.
THE report also indicated that
while twenty-five federal agencies
in the Twin Cities employed 545
Negroes and 148 other minority
group members, another twenty
five agencies do not employ any
minority group members.
Moreover, few Negroes occupy
federal jobs which require college
degrees. These are, in many in
stances, the higher level and bet
ter paying positions. 1t Is import
ant to learn why these ineqmties
exist before one can conclude either
that there is discrimination or that
there is not"
The statement attacked the rule
of three principle by which the fed
eral employing officer can exercise
race discrimination without detec-
ton.
The statement praised the US.
Postoffice as 1.-The only Twin Cities
Federal Agency that we know of
which has effectively modified this
rule by requiring reasons 30 be
given If the first or second person
is passed over In this way, it Is
more likely discrimination could be
determined as the reason for not
hiring an applicant"
Concluding it's statement the
human rights groups stated: I'VE
submit that the US. Civil Service
Commission is violating a public
trust If it concludes discrimination
does not exist in st. Paul and Min
neapolis Federal Agencies. It must
first satisfactorily account for the
inequities mentioned in this sur
vey, "the rule of three" and the
unanswered questions which we
raised. Only then can the federal
government learn how far 1t has
come in merit employment in the
Twin Cities and how far 1t stiIl
has to CO."
The organizations which Joined
in the critical blast at the survey
reports were the: st. Pam Urban
League, The Fair Employment
Practices Commission of st. Paul,
The National Association for the
Advancement Of Colored People
st. Paul Branch, The Employment
Committee OF the Joint Commit
tee on Equal Opportunity, Mime

Mixing Builds Character
Avoid connecting yourself with char4c
ters whose good and bad are unmixed, and
have not fermented together; they resemble
vials of vinegar and OIL or palletes set with
colors; they are either excellent at home
and intolerabe abroad or insuferable with
in doors and excellent in public; they are
unfit for friendship, merely because their
stamina, their ingredients of character, are
too single, too much apart; let them be
finely ground up with each other, and they
