A INQUIRER“To seek out the Truth and report it without Fear or Favor” VOL. ONE
The Inquirer SpeaksBy M. Carl Holman
A PLACE TO PLAY
America, they say, is differentfrom many other places in theworld in the way we treat our
women and in the way we treat
our children. We have even been
accused of spoiling both the ladies
in our lives and our young ones.
If we may side-step discussion of
the first, for the moment, let's
see what one American town does
in the way of spoiling its young-
sters.
Drive through certain neighbor-
hoods and there are parks —
small islands of shade and grow-
ing things in which the young
mothers and the older folks can
read, doze or gossip while the tod-dlers too young for school are at
play. Cars cruise by, beyond this
zone of safety, without causing so
much as a lifted head. Furtheralong there is a still larger park,|with softball and football fields,carefully kept by a city crew andequipped with lights for nightgames which attract and help holdtogether entire families, both asplayers and spectators.
Is it volley ball the youngsterswould like to learn? Or tennis —practiced on some of the finestcourts in the nation? Or square-dancing? Or golf? This Americantown is more than happy to makeits children happy by providing agenerous helping of exercise,wholesome relaxation and fun atthe town’s expense.
Side of Tow
Not all the youngsters, however,
are in danger of being spoiled by
the good fathers of the town. Driv-
ing down the narrow, pot-holedstreets of another neighborhood it
1s hard to avoid the difference.
Their playgrounds are the narrow,
pot-holed streets in which they
daily risk life and limb in a dan-
gerous game of tag with the
trucks and cars which chase them
back to the curb. Except for those
unhappy times when one of them
fails to make it. Their parks are
the alleys, the scrawny back
yards, the vacant lots on whichthey compete for playing space
with tin cans and broken bottles.
A Little Arithmetic
Recreation should be a pleasant
subject in this American town,
but unfortunately arithmetic gets
in the way. If we begin with the
distance between the homes of
the favored children and the near-
est park, we must multiply to
arrive at miles to be covered by
many of the less favored before
they see a spot of city-sponsored
greenery. And once they arrive inone of the handful of parks set

and White, pickets a downtown chain store during Wednesday’s dem-onstration against discrimination at lunch counters.
CELL BLOCKNO1-EAST-2
By Lonnie King
(Written in Fulton County Jail)
On Wednesday, October 19, 1960,
85 students from the six Atlanta
University Center schools em-
barked on what must surely be
the most rewarding experience of
§ [their lives when they attempted
to be served at “white” lunch
counters in several chain and de-
partment stores.
Oddly, Rich’s department store
was the only store which had
students arrested. 52
were arrested there, probably the
largest number ever arrested at
any store in the South.
Only 36 of us were bound over
to Superior Court. These young
people are thoroughly dedicated to
the principle of nonviolence and
all are willing to spend time in
jail to protest the injustice ofsegregation.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,
who was arrested with us, hit
the nail on the head when he said
“Segregation is a festering sore
that debilitates the white as well
as the Negro.”
Wednesday's arrest of 52 people
destroyed the myth that Rich’s is
sympathetic to the Negro’s cause.
This is a serious indictment of
the Rich’s management.
Too long have we spent our
money with establishments that
segregate and humiliate us.
(Continued on Page A-2)
aside for them it becomes neces-
sary to begin subtracting. From
the number of swings, or water
fountains, or tennis courts listed
officially as usable we must de-
duct all those facilities which are
missing, or worn out or in too
poor a state of repair to be use-
ful even for youngsters accus-
tomed to being saddled with thesecond best.
And perhaps this is where the
knife cuts deepest. For if this is
a land in which the young are
privileged as nowhere else in the
world, only the child who, through
no fault of his own, must stand
on the outside looking in can know
how bitter life in such a land can be.students .

between two and three hundred

directed them to break up into
eleven groups. Each of thesegroups were to go to specificplaces with eating facilities inthe city. Among these were four

There were some mild complaints that the meals were far fromhearty and some regretted having forgotten to bring along tooth-brushes and cigarettes, but on the whole the same calm certaintythat their cause is right which students displayed during Wednesday'ssit-ins appeared to sustain them as they talked, read and wrotebehind bars. They were eager for news of the students still outside,and were unaware that further arrests had been made which wouldlead to City Jail sentences for disturbing the peace.
The two-month-old prison on Jefferson Street, north of Bankhead,is a far cry from the grimy old Big Rock that once was FultonTower. But in spite of the spare, modern lines of the building, andthe neat, well-lighted lobby, the steel gray bars and the heavy doorsthat refuse to swing open or shut except at an electronic impulseset in motion by one of the turnkeys are reminders that this is oneof society’s pens designed to sharply limit the freedom of those shehas judged unfit to associate freely with her law-abiding citizens.

Let Freedom
Ring
As the Student Nonviolent Co-
ordinating Committee Conference
closed last Sunday night I thought
of how wonderful the entire con-
ference had been. Here we met
and shared experiences and inci-
dents of the summer, many re-
warding, some disheartening, all
adding to our determination to
continue the struggle against dis-
crimination until the battle is won.
We have reaffirmed our faith in
nonviolence, not only as a tech-
nique useable in sit-ins and pro-
test demonstrations, but as an
actual way of life, as a real and
vital part of everyday
Through discussions and after-
conference hours sessions, we
realize that the philosophy of non-
violence is the Christian philoso-
phy, that it embraces and is em-
braced by the Golden Rule. We
realize that mistakes have been
made and in spite of these mis-
takes, the movement has flour-
ished across the land, meeting
and surmounting obstacles which
were considered too difficult to
surmount or situations beyond our
control.
living.
We learned that we must re-
emphasize the philosophies which
have built the movement, not be-
cause we have begun to stray
away, but becauseé continued em-
phasis will serve to make us more
effective in the battle. Nonvio-
lence is our weapon and our de-
fense. We must clasp it to us.
We learned what so many of us
had begun to realize. We learned
that greater sacrifice is needed,that our dedication must be
strengthened, that our programs
must spread and cover the en-
tirety of segregation. We must not
settle for freedom at lunch count-
ers. As has Atlanta and so many
other protest centers, we must
carry the battle to the enemy andattack him whether he lurks be-hind the restrictive covenant inreal estate, behind the closed door
“at the employment office, if hemanages to close the voting booth.or if he is able even to direct usto the back door of the movietheatre. Until all men can movefreely, the beloved communitywill not exist. Until no man canrestrict the liberties of anotherin a capricious and arbitrary fash-ion by using his color as a pointof reference in choosing or re-fusing him, we must press onwardand upward.
We learned the importance ofsacrifice. As James Lawson, astudent who was expelled fromVanderbilt Divinity School inNashville for his part in the stu-dent protest movement told theconference, “We lost the finesthour of the movement when somany hundreds of us left the jailsof the south.” Lawson urged thestudents arrested for their partici-pation in sit-in activity to stayinjail and told them to tell the lead-ers who asked them to accept bail
it in here just as long as you can
stand it out there.”
Attending the conference was
like having a breath of fresh air
blown into a hot and stuffy room.
I saw white students from north-
ern collegs, whose only experi-
ence with discrimination must al-
most necessarily be second-hand,
ready to dedicate themselves far
beyond the sacrifices which many
Negro students, deeply touched by
the evil in their daily lives. have
refused to offer.
The student movement came
about because young people saw
many of their elders refusing to
cope with segregation adequately.
They saw other youngsters,younger than they, in Little Rock
and other cities, face mobs who
would have deterred many a sea-
soned fighter. They saw that too
often, one person cries against
wrongdoing, and one person can-
not effectively act. They saw that
ponderous barriers were being
raised to fight the 1954 Supreme
Court decision and they saw that
only a massive attack could bring
results. They saw that massive
resistance must be met with pas-
sive insistence and they saw that
only in a movement which in-|
volved all of the people involved!
or in any way connected with the
basic problem could any sort of|
effective change be wrought. They|
saw, finally, that it does no
earthly good to talk and fret about
segregation and that only action
will ever enable man to talk of
segregation as a thing of the past.
NO. 113 OR NO. 200?
The grand total of Southern
cities in which lunch counters |
have been integrated has now]
risen to 112, according to four|leading variety chains. Somehow|
a decent percentage of the may-|
ors, the merchants, the Negro and |
white citizens of many of these |
Southern cities have managed to
do what ‘progressive’ Atlanta has
not yet achieved. :

Jobs and
SchoolingOne of the speakers at. the
national sit-in conference this
past weekend bluntly suggested
that Negro youngsters are being
trained for yesterday's oppor-
tunities.
Certainly the SNCC speaker was
not the first to note that it is no
accident that our boys and girls
still tend to be shunted into
low-paying, dead-end or all-too-
crowded occupatiions. The two
Negro youngsters from the North
cited recently for outstanding
scientific achievement would
hardly have made the grade in
one of those segregated public
schools limited by second-rate
scientific courses and equipment,
or none at all.
Whereas there have been dras-
tic changes in the offerings of
many of our white schools, espe-
cially since the cold war brain-
power race against Russia began,
a graduate of one of our Negro
schools, going back to his old
school after a lapse of ten or
fifteen years, can still find too
many of the same outmoded
courses, the same narrow-focus
goals of teacher, doctor, lawyer,preacher.
There are trained counsellors
now in several of our high schools
and some of our colleges, butthere are still pared, then encouraged to take
the civil service exams and the|

exams which could lead to more|attractive futures. At one high |
school, we are told, those few|
students who do take the civil!| service exams are advised to in-
dicate a preference for working
Washington. || Thus again, Negroes collaborate
| with a system which keeps thefederal offices in the city of At-Itnta as segregated in fact as any
state or private facility could pos-sibly be. |
But there are glimmers of en-|
couragement here and there.
We have heard that certain edu-
cators in the University Center,
along with ° ‘erested citizens and
student leaders, may in the nearfuture come togetherto talk about |a counselling and job placement|program for all the schools in the|Center.

us. It’s good to have ‘company’ from the outside world; especially
when they realize that we absolutely will not be persuaded toaccept bond.
We are happy fo know that there are those who are keeping

The following statements were released to the Inquirer by Rev. |King and the students.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Our decision to stay in jail rather than |accept bail grows out of a deep moral and spiritual motivation. It |is neither a publicity stunt nor an outer expression of rabble rousing. |
t is rather a sincere act to bring the evil of racial discrimination |under the scrutiny of the conscience of the community. History has |proved that self suffering can be a most powerful social force and |ultimately lead to a positive change of attitudes. So we are willing |to accept the suffering and agony that accompanies a jail sentence !in order to appeal to the conscience of Atlanta. We also choose thiscourse of action to demonstrate to the nation that we are willing toendure the most agonizing inconvenience to achieve freedom and |human dignity. We cali upon every citizen of this community to |jein in this mighty movement. We need vour moral and financialsupport. Beyond this, we call upon you to join in a massive programof economic withdrawal — withdrawing your financial support fromall of those stores that refuse to serve Negroes at their lunch count-ers, particularly Rich's.

MONDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1960 THE ATLANTA INQUIRER PAGE A-2
AT WHEAT ST. CHURCH MONDAY NIGHT AT 8:00 0’'CLOCK, CLEVELAND, OHIO CITY
COUNCILMAN JOHN B. KELLOG WILL DISCUSS CAMPAIGN ISSUES AT A REPUBLICAN
RALLY. HEAR HIM!
These scenes are in line with the Vice President’s position on Civil Rights, which was challenged by
typical Democrat desperation in the distribution of thousands of copies of a deed signed by Mr. Nixon
in 1951 when he purchased his Washington, D. C. home. This was three years before the U. S. Supreme
Court decision outlawing the kind of restrictive covenant showing the deed. Democrat leaders knew
that Negroes and whites in Washington, Atlanta and other places signed such deeds which had to con-
form to the original sub divisions and the Northeast section covered by Nixon's deed is now popu-
lated largely by Negroes. This, however, will not offset the Republican candidate’s good record on Civil
Rights, which neither of the Democrat candidates has when it comes to performance: :
In Congress he favored every Civil Rights measure except 3; twice against strong sections of an
FEPC Bill and once against a bill to make violence against servicemen a Federal Crime. On the
other hand 3 crucial rulings of his as president of the Senate were favorable.
He like Senator Lodge, has always been outspoken against segregation and discrimination. He sup-
ports the Republican Platform North and South: in Charlotte, in Memphis, in Atlanta as in New
York, Illinois and Ohio he spoke in favor of the Civil Rights plank. He has served as chairman
of the President’s Committee on Government Contracts, which gave Negroes good jobs or upgraded
them in 88 industries: Here at Marietta Lockheed, Negro clerical and other white collar workers
were employed as a result of the Committee's negotiations.
On appointment of a Negro to the cabinet, Senator Kennedy says he will not appoint a Negro
because of his race, Senator Johnson says it's wrong to talk about it, Senator Lodge says he recom-
mends it and Vice President Nixon, who will have the responsibility come next January, says he
will appoint the best men regardless of race, creed or color. Which statements are positive and
which are negative? Remember, the vice president is only one heartbeat away from the presi:
dency. Which candidates are temporizing with the enemies of Civil Rights? With which team are
your rights safe? The answer is NIXON AND LODGE. Vote that way on November 8.

ior, Ass’t. Superintendent William
Moore, to wash about 200 milk
cans. He was also told to report
two hours earlier than usual on
the following Monday in order tohelp prepare the plant for in-
spection.
When he arrived as instructed
on Monday morning Rev. Wash-
ington found that his time-card
was not in the rack. Norman Kohl,
the Superintendent, told someone
in the office to get the card and
put it in the rack because Rev.
Washington had work to do. Moore
came in an hour after Rev. Wash-
ington arrived and after Washing-
ton had worked two hours Moore
called him into the office and
asked him why he had not un-
loaded a truck-load of fruit on
the previous Saturday. Rev. Wash-
nigton replied that he had not
been told to do this and reminded
Moore that workers had been in-structed not to perform over-timework unless they had been spe-cifically instructed to do so by asuperior. At this point, Washing-ton alleges, Moore said to him.“I'm going to fire you.”
Moore and Kohl then withdrewto another part of the plant andafter about ten minutes Kohl re-turned and told Washington. “BillMoore said he fired you. “I'mgoing to agree with him.” Rev.Washington says he then went into see Anderson who said, “Fd.I hate to do this, but those menare my supervisors. They're work-
ing under me and I must go alongwith them. But I will write youa letter of recommendation.”
Letter of Recommendation
Rev. Washington still has the
letter of recommendation given
him by Anderson on the Wednes-
day following his firing. The letter
which appears above Anderson's
signature states: ‘““This will serve
to introduce Mr. Ed. Washing-
ton who has been employed by
Sealtest for more than ten years.
We have found Mr. Washing-
ton to be an honest, straight-for-
ward, religious employee. His
record for punctuality and ab-
senteeism is beyond reproach.
He has never created dishar-
mony among his
ployees.
fellow em-
We dislike seeing Mr. Wash-
ington leave us, but conditions
and necessary changes in meth-
ods of operation make this step
necessary.”
Rev. Washington states that he
remains unaware of the ‘condi-
tions’ or ‘changes’ in operating
methods which supposedly led to
his release.
The Subcommittee, Sealtest
and the Union
Subsequently, according to its
members, the Existing Businesses
subcommittee made numerous
fruitless efforts to arrange a con-
ference with Sealtest to discuss
the use of Negro personnel in
positions other than menial ones.
Rev. Washington had indicated
that although Sealtest is unionized,
the Teamsters local and Sealtestappeared always to join forces“to be working together to keepNegroes down.” Though seniorityand ability provisions applied inthe case of white workers, heclaims, whenever a Negro put hisname on the list for a job he waspassed over and a white workerwould be brought in, trained andgiven the higher position. When
stewards or took their complaintsto a grievance committee, no sat-isfaction was forthcoming. Rev.Washington states that thoughsome Negroes at the plant hadcompleted high school or attendedcollege, whites with 5th and 6tirgrade educations were trained andpromoted to operators while theNegroes were told “We just can'tdo it.”
{to use some of the skilis
Rev. Washington points out that
truck helpers at Sealtest were
taken off the list as permanent
employees and reduced to a non-
permanent classification of help-
ers who are now paid beneath the
union scale. Eating facilities for
whites are modern and more than
adequate, he says, while Negroes
must pick up their food in the
white dining room and then bring
it to a small room located in
front of the restrooms. Although,
on the whole, Negroes and whites
have worked well together at
the plant according to Rev. Wash-
ington, dissatisfaction with their
situation and the feeling that they
were paying dues without getting
benefits finally
workers to get out of the union.
Committee urges cooperation
The Existing Businesses sub-
committee in its report urges
that something be done to
reduce “the exodus of skilled and
committee in its report to the
trained Negro youth” from this
area. The report points with pride
to the fact that ‘‘there are oid
companies
within the Atlanta
dairies included — that do see fit
and new
ommunity —
that so
manyof our tax dollars are being |
used to find and prepare.” It
states further that “in order to
refute and eliminate the oiten re-
peated statement that ‘the Negro
|is the last hired and the firstNegro workers protested to shop| fired’ the Committee feels that it
is extremely important to con-
sider the Negro worker just as
much a team member as anyone
else It further feels that the en-
tire city suffers when businesses
which develop and thrive on in-
come received from the Negro
community are unwilling to re-
turn part of the income received
in the form of jobs and upgrading
opportunities.”

Complete desegregation has not
come to Atlanta because of many
factors. Let me cite two. First,
not enough pressure has been
brought to bear on the persons
who can bring about a meaningful
solution to the problem. Second,
the merchants have not fully
realized the unanimity of spirit
and purpose that motivates the
thoughts and actions of the Negro
people. The student protestor and: |
his adult counterpart are a new|
Negro, one who is not afraid of
jail because he has been in jail |

in the relative area of confine-

»: MONDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1960 THE
SIDEWALK CENSUS
Your roving Inquirer reporter and photographer wandered about|:
Hunter Street Wednesday evening, October 19, and asked Atlantacitizens the following questions:
A number of students from the Atlanta University Center Schools
were arrested this afternoon for their participation in ‘‘sit-in’’ pro-
tests at down-town lunch counters. (1) What do you think of the
students’ arrests? (2) Many students say that they will stay in jail.
What do you think of this? (3) Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. also
remained in jail. What do you think of adult participation in anti-
segregation protests?
-
Mr. James Pope, Steelworker,
724 Amber Road: “I think they
were arrested for doing something
a lot of people don’t have the |i
courage to do. I think they (stu-
dents) have a wonderful attitude.
Dr. King has done a wonderful
job.
Mrs. Helen Scott, 825 Martin
Street, Beautician: “I think its a
shame to arrest students. They're
doing the right thing. I think more
adults should take part.”
Mr. J. W. Couch, Westside busi-
ness man: ‘They shouldn’t have
arrested. Truthfully, their staying
in jail proves something. It shows |
the seriousness of the matter. Stu- |
dents should have the support of
adults. Students alone cannot win.
All people, white or black, need
to help.’

is right. I believe in his right,
in man’s right to exercise his
rights.”bs
Mrs. Beatrice Hollis, 954 Har-
well Street, Packer. “I don’t think
they should have been locked up.
This shows that they want equal
rights and that they will go to any
extreme to get them. If they (ad-
ults) want equal rights too, they
should do an equal part.”
Mrs. Jo Ann McClinton, 2619

“It was very bad. They shouldn’t

. C. Clayton Powell, 8647Hunter Street, Optometrist: “It’sa shame and a disgrace that citi-zens in these United States shouldbe arrested for seeking to gainfood service. If our dollars arenot good enough to buy food, allcitizens should refrain from spend-ing at these storse. Personally, Ihave not yet subscribed to “jailwithout bail.” There is a possibil-ity that their remaining in jailmight prick the consciences of afew people, but I feel that educa-tion is too important for a studentto deny himself this privilege. 1think there should be adult par-ticipation in “sit-ins” and picket-ing.

JumpingWith Joi
By Emarie Joi Thompson
In-teen-tionally speaking:
Although thinking teens are in-
terested in the entire wide, wide
world ‘“‘bash’”” — after all, your
todays are our tomorrows — it's
the local scene which frets the
set. We may snap and crackle at
the thought that some of us may
soon croon on the moon — but we
really pop because we can never
see a first run flick (movie) here
at home unless we take our al-
penstocks to climb the Fox “‘Alps”
steps.) We were quite bugged
with “Big Red K" (Khrushchev)
when he bounced his bootee on
TV — but it bothered and be-
deviled us a lot when “Ben Hur”
played in our town forever and
a day and we couldn't even get
to the arena!
‘ Her Majesty, the Queen!
The students have voted, and
the lovely new queen at HOWARD
HIGH is
BARBIE JEAN WALDEN —
Miss Howard
Her “Ladies in Waiting”:
Drucilla Maddox —
Miss Twelfth Grade
Peggy Johnson —
Miss Eleventh Grade
Harriet Hargrove —
Miss Tenth Grade
Marion Griffin —
Miss Ninth Grade
Mary Frazier —
Miss Eighth Grade
The queen will be crowned No-
vember 2 at a lavish Coronation
Ball; and will wield her royal
sceptre at HOWARD HIGH'S
Homecoming on November 4.
At CARVER HIGH, her majesty
and attednants are:
ELLA GLAZE — Miss Carver
Bennie Harris — Senior
Attendant
AttendantRoberta Reid — Junior
and there are various attractiveshop queens.
Neat “Feat”:
- “Bouncing Bobbie”, the juniorJordan, is up and around after a
short stay in the “pill mill” (hos-
pital) with an injured ankle.
Seems that Robert was playing
backyard basketball and managed
to step on his own foot. That sure
is jive — few guys and no dolls
could beat feet for a neat featlike that!

A FAMILY AFFAIR
By Emarie Joi Thompson
Washington High Crowns a Queen
The Holidays are really the
royal family of Washington High.
The current queen is lovely Bar-

is her sister, Ernestine Holiday;
and both Barbara and Ernestine
ascended to the throne via the
“Miss Eleventh Grade” route.
Sunday evening, Ernestine
placed the sceptre of authorityin the hand of her sister Barbaraas she sat on her sumptuousthrone reigning over the Corona-tion festivities held in her honor.Principal C. N. Cornell placed theglittering crown on the proudqueen: and there was music, andthere was gaiety in the school-land.
Rosebud Dixon sang the ‘“‘Dedi-cation to the Queen’: PhillipaBrisbane and Shirley Boltondanced a “Serenade to theQueen,” while her majesty’s cor-tege, attendants, lady-in-waiting,pages, and honor guard made acolorful and fascinating scene.

Born to DanceAs any aspiring dancer will tell
you, the study of tap dancing com-bined with ballet studies, can leadto terpsichorean disaster, so dif-ferent are the two forms. How-ever, in “Born to Dance”, whichwas presented at Spelman Col-lege, Read Hall on Wednesday,October 19, 1960 at 8:00 p.m.,George Tapps has done the seem-ingly impossible — combined thetwo dance genres into an excitingnew approach to choreography,tap ballet.

How BeautifulWe Are
A Teen Looks at Ebony's
Symphony in Fashion
By Emarie Joi Thompson
For a teen, newly liberated
from sneakers and jeans, the
Ebony Symphony in Fashion was
truly “lovely to look at, delightful
to see!” It was a series of poetry
in pictures, music in motion and
fantasy in fashion.
As 1 sat in the packed and ap-
preciative audience, I thought
“how beautiful we are!” We are
all types and all colors, ranging
from rich, velvety ebonies through
warm browns to golden blondes.
I have no prejudice — forbid the
thought! — against ‘“furriners’,
but it does seem to me that im-
porting star material from other
lands to perform in American-
produced entertainment is a waste
of time and money. We are a
“natural resource’, and the sup-
ply is unending! Hollywood, takenote!
It was fine, indeed, to witness
that Atlanta's own renowned de-
signer, Mrs. Dorothy Alexander,
lent her particular magic to the
occasion in a wondrously beauti-
ful “deb” dress modeled by one
of the Ebonettes.
The teen fashions were way out
and droolly. I would like to have
seen some of our cool chicks have
a go at at least a couple of these
swinging styles. Come to think of
it, I would have liked seeing at
least one of our Atlanta models
on stage with all the importedbeauties.
During intermission. six Atlanta
girls who lead the field in ticket
sales were presented; and Carolyn
Lumpkin was crowned ‘‘Miss
Fashion Fair.” 1 had the honor
of making the presentation to the
second runner-up, Miss RosaLee Thomas. Mrs. Gertrude.“WACK Around Town’ Nelson,emceed this portion of the pro-gram.
This was my third Ebony Fash-ion Show. At the first one, amere child of thirteen, I gawked.
The second year 1 gaped. This
year I just glowed. It was a “‘fine affair.”

Freda DeKnight
And Troupe
Thrill AtlantaBy ‘Pat’ Johnson
As the “Lady In the Window”,
Freda C. DeKnight, producer and
director of the Ebony Fashion
Fair, presented to Atlantans the
very latest fashions {rom Italy,
Paris, and the United States.
These fashions were modeled by
Helen Jones Aginar, Sonjia Amar,
Judith Davis, Corinne Huff, La
Jeune Hundley, Ann Porter, Sue
Streets, Hal De Windt and Aubrey
Tobin. (The latter two models,
Hal and Aubrey, literally had the
female contingent standing up for
a better look).
The presentation was unique.
“The Lady in the Window'’, Miss
DeKnight,peeped out the window
from Monday until Sunday at her
voung and glamorous neighbors.
For each day of the week the
fashions were varied and the col-
ors forecast the look for this win-
ter. A look into the future, Sum-
look in Summer fabrics and de-sign.
The musical background of
Duke Ellington arrangements fea-
tured Dave Rivera at the piano.
Highlights of the show were the
long ball gowns at the “Satin Dell
Ball.”” The ‘“‘satin doll look” fea-
tured elegant satin gowns in to-
mato red. yellow, orchid, white
and blue. The Ebony Blacks, RichBrowns and Subtle Beiges caughtthe imagination of the audienceand thrilled them even if theprices quoted seemed beyondreach for most of us.

Fans at Saturday's FAMU - Morris Brown game were enter-tained at halftime by Florida's 132 piece marching band. While the |Rattlers struck the Wolverines for a 64 - 0 tally, the sparkling half-time show seemed to soften the blow a little.
Price Eleven Holds
BTW to 6-6 Tie
Coach J. W. Merkerson’s Wild-
cats from Price High School con-
tinue to hold their position as the
most surprising school in the city
race. After having tasted grid de-
feats in their first tries, the ‘Cats’
have come back to upset some of
the leaders in city competition.
The Price team proved that the
unbelievable is not the impossible.
The team showed miraculous im-
provement in the tilt against
Washington not only because they
managed to keep the Bulldogs
from beating them but also be-
cause they held them to one TD.
This game can be called the game
of the week. Neither team saw
pay dirt more than once.
The Price TD came late in the
first quarter and was set up when
Price blocked a Washington High
punt and recovered it on the
BTU 13 yard line. Oscar Hudson
butted through the BTW front
wall, blocked and recovered the
punt. A penalty put the ball on
the Washington 28 yard line.
Jordan, the Price QB, tossed a
28 yard TD pass to Henry Evans.
The Wildcats never crossed thegoal line again.
Alert Price linesmen kept the
Washington offensive team con-
stantly in trouble.
It was the Allen-Vaughn combi-
nation for the Washington TD.
Washington took the ball on
Price's 41 yard line. QB Andrew
Vaughn tossed a 33 yard pass to
Joe Allen, who bulled his way
through for the remaining eightyards.
A disputed PAT kept Washing-
ton from tallying the winning
point. Photo by Julius Alexander

Sunday the Inquirer will have its eyes on Browntown Roadwhere the new Lincoln Homes Subdivision will begin to display
its model house. We understand that J. C. Johnson Realty Com-
pany plans for over 100 homes to make up this new subdivision.* * * *
Sunday also marks the date of the dedication of the Saint
Paul of the Cross Catholic Church. The site, coupled with the
school, convent and parsonage, will be pleasing to the eye. All
of the buildings which make up the entire facility are modernistic.
* * * *
The widening of Hunter Street has its ups and downs just as
anything else does. The Inquirer has heard many people comment
on the new appearance of the street but several other citizenshave remarked on the narrowness of the new sidewalks. Our own
investigation revealed that the bond issue didn’t make much of a
provision for adequate sidewalk space. Will this have any effect
on the beautiful fronts we thave been admiring lately?* * * *
Beckwith Street will get a touch of modern glamor when the
buildings composing the new Interdenomination Theological
Center are completed. Located near Oglethorpe Elementary
School, the luxurious new grounds will include a dining hall,library, dormitories and classroom buildings. With the completion
of this school, the Atlanta University Center will operate in a
more compact area. ,* *% * *
Frazier’s Cafe Society has been operating full swing since the
opening of the lovely front counter area. Just as predicted, the
new space continues to spread the good word associated with the
Frazier tradition of fine food and good service.
