PAGE EIGHT Continued From Page 1 Shaw Situation schools where such, a Dt-i.oi hart ’■■«en adopted According to alumni spokesmen, the subsidization of football play ms has not necessarily brought I shout the impasse now existing. They claim the iiuat>or has devel oped because of t>nc mishandling | end diverting of athletic funds ; Tms statement ir made, despite I the statement of the president that ! the ever increasing defter, at the: University has been caused, in the I mam by the financial assistance • the University has been giving its I athletes, for the most pari football i players. *Rie expansion in' the physical facilities at Shaw particularly, the! purchase of the old Rex Hospital properties, bus resulted ■r. quuu a: sizeable debt being incut i-d by! *hi; schoal When the trustees of Shaw Uni-; versify held their annual meet in? in April of thri year, much un favorable criticism wa directed to : ward the administration b cause! *»1 the glowing yearly deficit and I the increasing indebtedness. Be-! cause. of administrai/on claims: that the deficit ".as the result of giving purely athletic scholarships,, the trustees, recommended the a-j bollshment of these special scho larships, expressing the opinion that the alumni could and pos stbly would provide the funds ne cessary .for the continuance of the athletic program. It has not been learned as y■ -1' whether the trustees were specu lating on that possibility or who- ! thcr they had assurance that, such wuld be 'be ease by having had ! a previous committment from the r.lumni In the meanwhile, there seemed to have been developing a feud, JOINS Temc in SOP us with Tout Financial Problems Von will receli ea fTarlrnis • v-'! - rOVSOMUVTIOV OF RERTS is Otp SPECIALTY r THE HOOD SYSTEM INDUSTRIAL BANK 1112 .South Salisbury Street f Raleigh, North Carolina ECHO SPRING 4 YEARS OLD JU Jjjl KENTUCKY |spJ”°J I I j . $2-30 PINT $3-65 4-5 QT. 86 PRC >F • ECHO SPRING DISTILLING COMPANY, LOUISVILLE, KY. • ••••tween the business office at the University and alumni office.

The business office comput ed an amount in excess of s3oooj os travel and expense, chargeable • to the public relations and alumni i offic*, the alumni say that an in-j : tepondent audit revealed that only ; S4OO was rpent. /it any rate, the office was a bo- j lished and the amount of expense • • •lain.ed bv file business office was 1 ; owed to stand leaving no of : ficial link between the administra-l | non and the alumni. This step was! ! taken despite the claim of the a- i lumni that over .SIO,OOO was col lected and turned over to the ad-; i ministration that very year. Part of tlie amount, the alumni say, i was earmarked for athletic seho- i ! lai shins.

But it does not re- j quire a Solomon to state that nn- ; til ;iU .droops, interested in the . ! wed fare and preservation of Shaw! i Univ« rsitv deeid* to it common; ; sense and onselfishtiusss be their ; | motivation, the situation will ul itimateiy result into a state be-j : vend i-.-rnvei v and Shaw Univer-i ! .sit v■' ill rinse its doors forever. On May 2f! of this year, the a- ; . Irmni adopted a list of recommon- : i datum'-' to be submitted to* the board of trustees for its approval, i Pr-u :-'iiinr ihe.se recommendations; Is a list of developments which the alumni say is 'he basic causa ! feu tb • on-sent state -if affairs. According to the alumni, the j cci.n uin..-, tuff as given blanket 1 ity to run the athletic de- j pnrtment as it saw fit. As a con- ; :i|:i,?iifi'. ,t is claimed, it recruit ed a f-'otbail team of paid players; f om New York and New Jersey ‘and .- ••u 1 d hardlv permit students! horn the student body at largo or j ;uy hoy from North Carolina to 1 participant as a football. j ‘As a ’ result of this administra* | tier: sanctioned unsound policy, tihe J V umoi cay, boys of football calibre in North Carolina saw no reason wiiy they should attend Sriaw and . enrolled elsewhere, thereby cut- i tine down matiw'S! 1 as well i as the enrollment of the schooi The alumni also clame tne ad ministrations, past and present, for, “unnecessary and harmful con- i , diets in public relations as they nave affected the alumni and a i lumni organizations,” claiming!: that the insistence of the admin i istration on having control of a* | lumni affairs is “part of an era i i.hot is past and impossible of fu j Jure acceptability.'' The alumni say the whole alum- - ;ni organiar.tion is ready to actively i support not only the athletic pro . •gram at Shaw but also give its aid . to other phases of trie development ! program, but it insists it must b« ; illowcd to function as one would ! '■o">nallv act within his own home and not be relegated to the back ■cup as if it were not a part at the whole. President Strassnev told us that. !he has made repeated offers meet with the executive ccinnuv | tee representing the alumni but ; that committee has refused to! me ll with him. He expressed grave concern over the present stale of affairs and j said he has been willing, and Is j i now willing and will hold himself lin readiness to sit down with this | j committee i nan effort to settle the 1 ; misunderstanding now existing land do everything within his pow ier to affect an equitable solution, j It is the alumni contention Fiat ; only the trustees or at least the j I executive committee of the board; j of trustees can give the assurances' | necessary for an amicable settle- ; j merit and they insist upon a set-! : (iement of the controversy on that! j casts only. They say they are not trylmg! to hamstring the University or the; j athletic program but ‘•hat unless! ! certain dominant factors are taken I ; into consideration and acted upon, i : 'here can never be a permanent 1 basis for understanding and har i monious relations. Why, they ask. should they meet ; i the president and rehash the grie-j vances, when, they claim, the past! ! president and the present one. are i ; responsible for the present, state [ of affairs and have been told many : . times about the evils existing and | neither President Daniels or his! successor. Dr Strassner has seen; fit to take any steps to r emedy j ! the situation A ooil has been taken of all the ; ! available members of the board; !of trustees. One expressed himself las being surprised that football ; had been dropped this year. f* is -hardly conceivable 'hat a! trustee of a University living in j | Hue fit; where that University! ils located, would not know, until j 1 a praised by a new paper reporter,; J that football had been disconiin-! | ued at that school, but strange as jit may sound, such was the case, j The the concensus of their opin-' ten semes to be that football has : been costing Kte school too much! money, the mortgage and bond I wider'- of the University would : ; not countenance the continuance of ; the growing deficit; that other schools depended upon their alum- ' ni and other interested friends for ’he support of thor athletic pro grams and although thev deplored i ; r he necessity for the action taken. . it was their opinion that the presi i dent wa s acting within the au thority granted him by them, if u> felt that such actions were ne ccssary for the good of the school. In all of this, there appears to ' Vr a loose screw because it is evi dent that there was no precon ceived idea to abandon football this year, by the trustees, by the administration, bv the alumni at the coaching staff Trier- is ample evidence that i football team was on the pro gram for Shaw this year or there most certain!; would not have been football practice sessions It is reported that 19 men did report for football, daily unifr. m ‘•d practices were held and t iat had not several of the irroup .us tained injuries, the football -o tram would have been carried >n What type of financial arr \r re ments, if any .had been made • th that group of 19. -has not : '-en ieai-ned, but the fact remains s' ’re ■eg. an attempt made to field a team. However, in all probability he present upheaval will result In feood for all concerned. At the id of this year if the deficit has •> i creased, it can not be cha»ged to football, and we ali well kr nv ! tor h certainly who U right, -re ticiministration or the alumni in that respect.

I THE CAROLINIAN let us continue ia prayer ” 1 1 Shaw University, trying to car- 1 ry on at a time when so much I emphasis is being priced on .the c mistaken idea that it is the duty cf the state to furnish education j for everyone, needs football and 1 every outer extra curricular ac- i tivity that will enable it to it- } tract and hold good student# It is not thinkable that anyone Laving any type of goodwill do"? not deplore the confusion and mis understanding now existing be • tween the administration and the ; alumni of Shaw University. ; It is not f-oneeu able to suppose ; that either group would lillingly ( no anything to hinder trie institu* , lion in any v.ay if they know that such was the case however, it • has been said that, “the road to , hell is full of good intentions." < People every day do evil In- . tending to do good because their vision has been distorted by § *t- , ty prejudices and their judge- , intents have been warped by cheap , jealousy and private selfishness. , ■ What every one connected with , this unfortunate situation at Shaw should do is get dmvn on his knees and ask God to rid hint , !ot every visitage of evil, to clear • his vision and give him an in- ; sight into His Kingdom as Ha j \vould have it come o neafth and thus equipped with a .spiritual re birth, each would be in a condition ] jto sit down and see the other fel- , iow's side because he could see , God's side. It is fervently hoped ; ?hH procedure will be followed. Shaw University does not be i« p..; to any one group. It is the task of the trustees to chart the . course for the school to follow and the administration is given the re- ; sponsibility to follow the outline given it by the trustees. No school can exist without alumni because, in the final analysis, producing almni is the sole purpose of a school. Because of these pertinent facts, there is every need for per fect understanding, .harmonious re- • atiouship and mutual respect, by 11 and for all the groups at work , for the maintenance end fire ore- , or vat ion of Shaw University BBC Hospital Meet i | have rendered in an attempt ! o I ! show the commissioner? why they l ! should ask the taxpayers of Wake : !

Mr. Kelts paid hif.h tribute to the usefulness arid services ren ' -tiered by both St Agnes arid Rex Hospitals, but he advised the com missioners that it would be ad visable from a standpoint of •f --ficiency and economy for them to \ ' recommend the building of a coun ty general hospital. Felts stave supporting figures to ■ prove his points and cited manv instances where trie idea he re . commended iiad proven good The Rev Mr Fisher, chairman of the Hospital Committee of the Raleigh Citizens Committee, told the commissioners that every va lue had been presented to them, but the value of the spirit. He said; twat he was not concerned witn a hospital for. black people _ or white people but with providing hospital service for the total popu lation. Rev. Mr. Fisher a-- well as I>r Hamilton, warned the commission ers that unless a new hospital pro viding equal facilities for Negroes were offered in a bond issue, there is a certainty that Negroes will fight the issue.
