The great white father of radio

While some brave stattion man

‘sponsor that the “give aivay" show
is not dead,.^t will be difficult to
get accompany to lay out good

ened their own position but also
destroyed much of the strength of
the original Democratic Party. Di
vided as they are, peither will be
able to do the things that a poli
tical party aspires to do.
Of course, one ' immediately
brings up the issue at hand, should
a Negro be treated equally as the
white person? That is in reality
what the fuss is about. I believe
it is generally accepted that this
problem , is not one that can be sol
ved by laws alone but the solution
is something that has to evolve,
■something that has to come about
naturally and without federal
force,
That the situation at the present
time is morally wrong should be
accepted by every morally stable
person. Only by sticking with the
party and working something out
that would compromise both sides
could the Southern rebels have
wielded any power. As it is now,
action will be taken ^vithout con
sideration of them of their prob
lem, The consequences of this could
prove serious with such men as
Ku Kluxer Greene of Georgia at
the head of rabble rousing groups.
In nutshell, the action can be
put down as the result of the un-
rational thinking and magnificent
ly ignorant insight of a few jfana-
ties whose moral level is that of
Bilbo and Rankin.

Spicer leaped high in the air to
snag the ball and throw to Bubba
WiUiam'son atj first who completed
the double play to end another
scoring threat.
The other double play of the
game came in the third inning
with a man on first. Tremont,
third baseman for Law, fielded
a hot grounder and threw to
Spicer at second and Spicer
whipped the ball oyer to Wil
liamson at first to complete the
twin-killing.
The win gave Law the undis

Soil Conservation
:
Advocated in New
Educational Films
[
“The Living Earth” series, four
new color 16mm films on the vital
necessity of soil conservation, has
been released for distribution by
Encyclopaedia Britannka Films.
Individual titles of each 10 min
ute subject are “The Birth of the
Soil”, “Arteries of Life,” “This
Vital Earth,” and “Seeds of Des
truction.'’
“Birth of the Soil” shows how
nature produces life-giving top
soil from basic raw materials. In
“This Vital Earth” the relation
of life to its environment is shown
through the balance of plants and
animals. Water and forests are
portrayed in the “Arteries of
Life,” while “Seeds of Destruction”
Visualizes what happens when any
one of the links in the chain, of
life is broken.
George E. Brewer Jr., of the
Conservation Foundation worked in
cooperation with the New York
Zoological Society to produce, “The
Living Earth” series. Fairfield Os-
burn, president of the Zoological
Society, and founder of the Con
servation Foundation, is the au
thor of the recent book “This
Plundered Earth.”
Airplanes, Fire
Fighting Units
Added to Service
Additional financial support
from large and small timberland
owners, coupled with state and
federal .funds, will put the A&M
Forest jService in a position to
practically double its present mec
hanized J fire fighting equipment,
September 1 according to J. O.
Burnside, forest protection chief.
Burnside reveals that orders
have been placed for 28 four-wheel
drive fire fighting units* two hew
airplanes, and 36 mobile radio sets.
This new equipment will supple
ment the 22 jeeps, 58 radio sets
and 3 planes now in use.
All of this equipment will give
the Texas Forest Service greater
strength than it has had at any
time during its 33 year history.
This expansion is (the culmina
tion of several years work brought
to focus at a meeting of land-
owners and Texas Forest Service
officials last March.
“Studies jin Tex'as indicate a
completely 1 equipped mechanized
fire-fighting unit, manned by spe
cially trained men, is required for
each 50,000 to 75,000 acres of
forest land during the more haz
ardous periods of the year,” Burn
side said.
