Goldsboro St. Phone: 2314 WILSON, N C. ASSAULT CASE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) scribed as a prominent resident of a Leesburg suburb. The youth was arrested yes terday by Sheriff Willis Mc- Call, the pearl handled pistol packing officer who gained notoriety in the Groveland rape case and its aftermath eight years ago. State attorney Gordon Oldham. Jr. identified the suspect as Mel vin Hawkins, 18, and said he was the nephew of Virgil Hawkins, Daytona Beach Negro who has been petitioning the U. S. Su preme Court off and on for more than seven years to gain admit tance to the University of Florida Law School. Authorities were mostly tight lipped about circumstances sur rounding the alleged attack. Oldham said the woman was as saulted while in bed at her home between 12:30 and 1 a.m. Tues day. He said the attack was by a young rua.n who had gained en trance to the woman’s home by slashing a screen and unlatching the front door. The woman was i not harmed otherwise. Sleriffs investigators said footprints found outside the home had been matched with those from shoes owned by young Hawkins. But they said Hawkins denied the crime. They said he admitted, that he was in the neighborhood of the woman’s house, in the same gt nerul area of his own home. There had been no signs of racial disturbances in the county as a result of the alleged crime. . That, was not the case in 1949. Following the rape of a 17-year old white housewife at Grove land, armed bands of white men, burning crosses and shooting guns, toured this rural central Florida county. The governor called out the national guard to quell the disturbances. STUDENTS WALK (CONTINUED FROM PAGE J) walked out of the interracial Con ti al High classes following a dis turbance in which a fight took place between a white girl and a Negro gjrl over a sweater found in a locker room. Jeering students gathered outside of the school building and tried to persuade other white pupils to join in the strike hv walking out. The strikers ignored a plea by the principal that they return to classes. It required police two hours to bring the protest walkout under control. Police said there was no fighting or rioting. Because they resisted police at tempts to break up the crowd, three white girl strikers were re moved bodily from the school grounds and carried to headquart ers, However, they were later re leased. It was learned that the pro test was staged because the Ne gro girl involved in quar rel was permitted to return to school, while the white girl re- . mained at home at the request of A. B. Jordan, principal. The principal said he asked the white girl’s mother to keep her away from school until the matter could be settled. The Negro girl was asked to bring her father to school with her | that morning, but she reported a lone bringing a note from her father saying he could not be there. School officials '■aid the white girl found a sweater in the locker I room and the Negro girl claimed i it was hers. Then the girls began to fight. Six squad cars had to be sent to the scene to break up the milling crowd of students out Central High School. j N. C, RAPIST (CONTINUED from PACE l) said Moore admitted the attack “in a boasting manner.” Mrs, De Porter said the at tack occurred Dec. 13, while her husband, a native of Pat terson, N. J.. was with the Wake Forest basektbaii team for a game with Maryland at College Park. Md. She told police Moore attack ed her as she was returning him to the service station where he worked. She said he had brought the family car to the De Porter home from the station. Mrs. De Porter said Moore threatened her with a knife, then assaulted her. Police said he re turned later to the service sta tion, and telephoned authorities to admit the attack “in a boast ing manner.” Rape is a capital crime in North Carolina. BONUS MONEY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) five weeks and members of churches which are not now taking part are urged to con tact their ministers so that their churches may try for a wards in the Bonus Money Program. The awards to churches are os follows: SSO, first; $25. second; sls, third; and $lO, fourth place. Instead of giving money bonus es to individual families as was practiced in earlier months, a wards will be made directly to a person or committee appointed by the participating churches in Ra leigh and Wake County whose purchase slips warrant these a wards. Church members in the Raleigh and Wake County area are urged to turn in purchase slips or re ceipts to a committee or individ ual in the church. The slips could be turned In every Sunday morn ing. STATE BRIEFS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) cused Bunch of Hunting on his property on East Martin Street and said that he took Bunch's dog a 1 evidence. Released on S4OO bond, Gat ling’s case has been scheduled for Dec. 31. Meanwhi'e the two dogs have b<*<*n nlaeed in a kennel. U. S. LEADERSHIP HURT RALEIGH “America cannot continue to hold her role as leader when the world keeps hearing of racial injustices like those in Mont gomery, Ala and Little Rock, Ark.,” said Rev. A. M, Williams, at an assembly at Shaw University last week. Rev. A. M. Williams, a fac ulty member in the school of relgion, further pointed out “It is no secret that Aamerica is holding the Negro in bounds.” “SHOULD ASK DOROTHY COUNT’S BACK” CHAPEL IIILL To rectify a great evil, students at Charlotte's Harding High School received a letter urging that they invite Dor othy Counts to return to school there. The letter was written by the Carolinas-Virgnia region of Na tional Student’s Association, and it was authorized by the passage of a resoluton by the NSA two weeks ago. Dorothy Counts, 17, voluntarily withdrew from Harding High Scho ol after she had been humiliated by students and adults following admisson to the formerly all-white school. SHOPLIFTING EASY. EH? ELKIN—A Negro woman, charg ed with helping a shoplifting gang steal s3f!7 worth of merchandise in less than an hour, told police, “It was easy.” Hundreds of shoplifters are ope rating in the two Cqrolinas .said Thelma Smith of Charlotte to Pa trolman Dallas Coe. “Simoly take an article, slip it inside the coat under the arm, walk out of the store, leave the item in a parked ear and go back for another load,” was the formula that the wo man gave. Thelma Smith’s arrest led to the discovery of two other shoplifters. The arrest of these three women •nay lead to a cleanup of what po lice called one of North Carolina’s largest shoplifting rings. ODDS & ENDS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE !) fice ad love, Divine sacrifice and Divine love. Those of us who bury our heads in the sands of j selfishness, self esteem and vain | egotism, seeking one good regard-! less of the suffering we cause | others, can never know and will] never be able to express the true I spirit of Christmas. We symbolize ] the spirit of Christmas when we | lift our thoughts above material- | ity and self seeking and let our j good deeds “tell it on the moun tains that Jesus Christ is born," This “telling* is not achiev ed by word of mouth. We will ] never be able to convince any one that the Christ has ap- ] peared to us, that this new birth of righteousness has ac- j tually taken place in our own j experience until it has been experienced in deeds and ac tios. Telling it on the moun tain means elevating our ! thoughts to (he point that we no longer hate our brother, we are no longer indifferent . to the needs, worthy aspira tions and the rightful aspira tions of our fellowman. When the real significence of Christmas has dawned in con sciousness, nothing can prevent us from "telling It on the moun tain” that the birth of Christ signifies a new birth for us, the | birth of joy, peace, love, patience,: consideration and kindly patience i and brotherly understanding. This birth means that we can never again be satisfied with that which is low and common and, seeking to develop and express the lofty Christlike ideals in all that we do and say, we will meanwhile work and pray for the coming of j this spirit to our fellowman. i Christmas does signify giving for ] Christmas is giving, the giving of, gifts at Christmas time is sig- j nificent and meaningful. In try ing to tell the story of Christmas on the mountain top, however, we should strive to do our best to give gifts that are truly beneficial and lasting. Giving hope, comfort, sympa thetic understanding, inspiring and teaching others how to rise from the depths of despair, deg radation and shame are types of gifts that will do more for the recipients than all the material baubles and worldly trinkets our money will buy. When we make such gifts we truly express the Christ or Christmas spirit. We are telling it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born. Peter and John typified this spirit when the lame man at the temple gates implored them for e gift of money. Peter’s reply to that request could well be the motto of our own lives. Said Pe ter “Silver and gold have I none, but such as I have, give I thee, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.” We do not always have silver and tIL touA. tiu.

Too often, in a sense of vain competition, we burden our selves with needless debt in order to make gifts that will glitter and shine. The sheer pity of this useless show of materiality is that so often we could really benefit those whom we give these gifts to by an act of understanding, by a show of love and consid eration, by a sharing of some mental burden that is bearing heavily upon the shoulder of our friends and acquaintances. The lame man received neither silver nor gold from Peter but the spirit of Christ, acting through the love and understanding of Peter, brought something into that man’s life that silver and gold could not have briught to him. Peter’s gift to him filled the cripple’s greatest need. The Bible does not tell us so but we can imagine that man forthwith began the joyous task of giving unto others the types of gifts that — —^ m&MERVi CHRISTMAS T JOHNSON COTTON CO.

When we tell the story of Christmas on the mountain top, we benefit ourselves as well as others. When we elevate our con sciousness into the realm where Christ abides, we feel the joy and freedom that abound in thus rei fied atmosphere. We can no long er be content with idleness, fault finding rnd dissatisfaction with everything and everybody. Being new born of the sprit of Christ brings into our experiences the harmonious fruits of this spirit. The birth of Christ is of no signlfieence to us if it does not cause us to rise in rebel lion against all that is unlike the Son of God, whose avow ed purpose was to destroy sin and teach mankind the true meaning of life.
