SCHOOL ASSIGNMENT VS AD
MINISTRATION
WHITAKERS This small
Nash-Edgecombe County town
was all in a dither last week when
it. was announced that the parents
of twenty-six white high school
pupils on the Edgecombe side of
the railroad would contest in the
courts their assignment to the Leg
getts High School 53 miles away.
Tha transfer from the school on
(he Nash County side of twon was
-aid to have been an economy
move on the part of the Edge
combe school board to replace a
loss in the enrollment of the ru
ral Leggetts School,
After the news of contesting the
school assignment law got into
the headlines a story broke to the
effect iart the plaintiff parents at
torney;-. J e Branch of Enfield and
Ben K Neville, Whitakers, were
not ronto b'a. the assignment act
>s such, but rather, the adminis
tration of the act in so far as it
| caused a hardship upon the white
nupils who had family and coirur.u-
I nity i;@s at, Whitakers where many
.of them had lived Ti their lives.
: Branch was quoted as raying:
Th< general welfare or students
Is what - involved here" after
: allegedly staling that “We are not
attacking the statue in any way”,
adding, "Wo wouldn't touch it with
a ten-fool pole'’
This unfavorable publicity for
the so-called Pearsall Committee,
appoint' -1 by Gov Luther Hart
| well Hodges, to insure continued
I school sirregu: ion of the races, is
j being watched with keen interest
n this ioceitiy, as well as around
i the state and nation, since this
j town is next door to Battleboro,
S hist four mile, i away, where Mr.
j Thomas Pearsall, leading figure on
! .he comiffce. (recently renppoint
s ed to the State School Advisory
Committee) directs a vest estate
r.f farming operations, the major
ity of whose tenants are colored
people,
The local press of Mr. Pearsall's
in-.me town (Rocky Mount), just 13
miles away, was conspicuously si
lent regarding this proposed law
vuit during its early stages, only
carrying a small neer-the-back re
lease after the second day s triple

Despite the very hot weather |
last Sunday we are happy to re-i
port that our services were largely j
attended. The processional, ‘God>
of Our Fathers” by the senior j
choir meant that we were off to 1
a fine start for the day. Our ISt j
hymn No. 61. “The Lord Our God
Is Clothed With Might’’ was sung i
lead by our pastor, Rev. W D.
Carson. The responsive reading
was for the the 26 th Sunday. “The j
Mind of Christ.”
Scripture lesson was read by j
our pastor from St. Mark’s gospel i
• the 10th chapter from the 13th j
throught the 17th verses. The fer- j
vent prayer was offered by bro
ther Thomas Jones, followed by
the choral response, “O Lord Have
Mercy’’. Our 2nd hymn No. 142.
’ “Alas and Did My Saviour Bleed”,
was sung, while the congregation
devoutly meditated.
In the sermonette to the Junior
Church the pastor spoke on “The
bringing of little children to
1 Jesus." After the singing of the
Spiritual, “He Knows How Much
We Can Bear,’’ the minister chose
his toxj from the same scripture
read, »t. Marks 10:17. "And when
He had gone forth into the way,
there came one running and
kneeled to him, and asked Him,
Good Maste:-. what shall I do
that I may Inherit, eternal life.”
Theme: “The rich young Ruler."
The text was discussed from the
following view points. (1) Per
sistent Inquiry, (a) What must I
do to Inherit eternal life. (2) He
1 addressed the Master with a spirit
of humility. C4> Jerus is the only
one that could answer him. (5)
