Suitcase Stuff By “Slunk” Browning Willie Bradshaw, coach at Lincoln High School in Chapel Hill, is beating heads in every sport. He won the state double "A" toothful championship, - - - last, week he won the eastern district double “A” Basketball championship- - - He is going to have baseball at the school this year, and that’s his main sport. - - - Watch out heads. Douglas Gordon and his associate, Eddie Barnet, owners of the Durham Rams are rounding their team into shape fast by taking on ail young players that can lay any claim to previous experience. The Rams open against the Hillsboro All-Stars In Hillsboro Easter Sun ■ day. The Roxboro Colts are gathering in their baseball talent in a hur ry - - •• looks like a busy season in Negro semi-pro baseball. It may be alright, and It may be all wrong. It may show the lack of experience among educated Negroes to handle large crowds and It may show weakness among Intelligent Negroes to trust anybody ex cept, Mr. Charlie. Anyway, the C I. A. A. did not hire that ofay outfit to handle the doors at the recent tournament in Durham for the fun of it. Somewhere down the line something went wrong with the money and to steer clear of another mishap, Mr. Charlie was called In to school them on “How to operate.” . . . From all reports it worked. They had to be taught, how to handle about eighteen thousand people and receipts across the board. It v,’as a pity, for the so-called educated Negroes to have to ye’l to Mr. Charlie for help in collecting funds when they are so many Negro promoters that lay no claim to a college education that has had nearly that many at two performances a season and handled the -situation well with their own regular crew. Then there are college men in the promotion field that plays to tx-asistent large audiences without calling on Mr. Charlie for help. Some of those fellows had to laugh. One promoter said, ‘‘l certainly wouldn't have publicized that my organization was too stupid to han dle my funds and reciepts”. The late A. J. Hammons never went outside his organization to handle nine and ten thousand at his annual All-Star games. It is true that he received a little government aid from time to time but he didn’t engage them. Gentleman Joe Winters, of Raleigh, top promoter in the show business, maintains his sepia organization to handle his business in some of the largest productions tn the entertainment world. Lath Alston, of Durham. Arthur Dove of Raleigh, Wilbur Sutton of Richmond, Joe Louis of Norfolk, “Tug” Powell, of Baltimore, and Frank Forbes of New York, are all promoters that have handled crowds from three to twenty thousand at one selling and didn't have to call on Mr. Charlie for help in order to preserve honesty. .It may have been a good thing for the C. I. A. A. Some say yes, others say no- - - but anyway they did it, MR. HENRY ALLEN OF PERSON COUNTY IS IN A CLASS BV HIMSELF He is a staunch Christian, a member of Cedar Grove Baptist Church, about 58-years-old, dark brown complexion, stands around five feet 7 or 8 and weighs in the neighborhood of 150 or 160 pounds.

His habits are a bitunusual therefore the longer you talk to him the more Interesting he becomes, At a glance you can see that he has quick reflexes and can move in dif ferent directions In a split second. He claims that until a few years ago. he could run as fast as any - thing on foot. He once outran a flying genny that was flying low and caught him before he could enter his place of hiding. Whenever he cuts his hand or legs to the extent where stitches are needed, he sows the wound up with his wife’s needle and thread. . . A moccasin once bit him on the foot - - - He walked seventy five yards to his home - - mixed his own concoction and placed his foot in it momentarily walked back to the barn and killed the snake. In his boyhood days he served as catcher in the neighborhood baseball team - - - the batter never got a chance to hit the bail, he always caught the ball before it reached the plate- - he needed nr gun to hunt rabbits, he would rur. them down. Once broke his leg and re ported for work the next day, and worked - - - will take down any hornets nest with his bare hands and never get a sting.

Harris has announced his candidacy for one of the three Wake County i seats in the House of Represen tatives of North Carolina Gen- i oral Assembly. This announce ment is of far more significance than the mere wording of it oan Imply. For one thing, it means the first time since turn of the century that a Negro has sought a seat on the law-making body of this state. * * * * Another thing, it means that we have now reached the stage of social, economic, and politi cal maturity where we are in the position to make our rightful contribution to the I community an dto the state. Citizenship,, the type that we for down through the years, i sih'lily sa well as privileges and opportunities of citixen ' | ship, . i * » * * 1 i That we have been lazy in seek i j ing to fulfill this responsibility l i | is evident. But, if during this time I ! lag, we have been “growing up” l . | so to speak, we can now with as-! surance demonstrate out fitness! and our readiness to accept fullj duties and responsibilities of | frist-class citizenship. There are ■ j undoubtedly others In this area i who are qualified to serve with j distinction in the General As-! sembly of our stale, but it Is not j likely that any one can be found' ■ who is better qualified to serve asj : a representative In that body i than Dr. Karris. * I As the term “representative” j indicated, a legislative repre- I sen*a.tivc Is one who Is quali fied to represent his fellow j citizens hegardiess of race, i creed or color. As an imtruc- j tor in and dean of the depart - j merit of education at Shaw University, Dr. Harris has for j many years been a represen tative of truth and knowledge, qualities that we shold de mand of all of our represen tatives and iaw makers. • ts * In addition, Dr. Harris has been most act ive as a religious! and civic representative, giving unstinetlngly of his time and cl ients to the promotion and ex tension of religious, civic and so cial programs in tills area. Through background, training, experience, ability, profession and character. Dr. Harris exhibited the type of growth and maturity i that is needed so badly in our j legislative halls, today. Electing Dr. Harris to the Gen ; eral Assembly would not mean j that he was in that body merely I to serve the Interest of his race: j it would mean, however, that his [ race had matured to the point, it | was able for one of its members to make a significant contribu tion to society in general. We can, by beginning to work now for Dr. Harris' election, prove our readi ness and willingness to act as good citizens. It is something wei can, and it is something wc muit do. D. Harris can be elected if each of us docs nis duty. Tilts du ty is very simple. Be prepared bv registration to vote In the pri mary May 31 and urge others to do likewise. DICKERING AND FIGHTING WILL NOT SOLVS THE PROB LEM: From time to time, un healthy echoes and unwholesome odors from the Shaw University situation fill the air. Shaw is a j privately owned ond operated in* ! stitution, and as such, what goes’ j on concerning it may or may not j !be private business. If the in ternal affairs of the University were kept private, what goes on there might not be the business j of the public. However, without seeking to be drawn into the cor - 1 flict, the public has had to take I part in the controversy there be cause so many of these responsi ble for the turmoil are continu ally Reeking to have the public listen hi “their side” of the is sue Wc do not pretend to know' the facts of the issue that seem new & to be plaguing Shaw University. True, we have listened patiently to persons speaking for the ad ministration, as well as those re presenting the alumni. We must I certainly have not heard enough or seen enough to make any con* elusions in either direction as to who is right or who is wrong as far as their contentions go. But there is one conclusion we have reached: and that is, both sides are wrong in the way they are mishandling the matter. Both sides should realize that what ever the issues are, they can nev er be resolved by ceasely bicker ing, fighting and name calling. * * * *» The truth about the whole matter is, somewhere it may he buried beneath the bottom of the derhis that has been heaped upon it. Whoever it is, and whatever it is, both sides should seek to find it: and al ter finding it, apply it in libe ral doses. It is most unwhole some and stupid for persons of intelligence and goodwill to spend their rime in need less and useless fighting. In the case of Shaw University it is not only unwholesome, it > downright damaging That vei. erable institution has too rich . heritage of good, and it Is too badly needed to continue ns ta.se 1 oi education. In oi dor for Shaw | University to keep its light from i becoming dim, the present issues of discontent must be resolved j Tha; sooner this is done, the bet ter it will be for Shaw Univer sity. A NEEDED ORGANIZATION: The formation here recently ot the Washington - Ligon Alumni Club was a big step in the right direction. This joint enterprise can do much to help perpetuate the ideals oi both sciiools. An A lumni club or association has as its chief objective, the growtn and promotion of the interests that pertain to the institution it represents. In addition, it, is a booster group, seeking to devise ways and means to implement th resources of its alma mater. Be cause of these facts, the Wash ington-Llgon Alumni Club can and should play and important role in this community. We wish it the success it' deserves to at tain. • * * * NEGRO NE\VSV APE 11 LIBRARY WEEK MARCH !*> -22: Os course it is a coinci i donee Shat National Negro Newspaper Week and Nation al Library Week occur on the same dates, hut they can be appropriately celebiutcd to gether. The purpose of Na tional Library Week is to stimulate the lagging Ameri can interest in reading books National Negro Newspaper Week calls attention to the fact that for a period of 131 years wc have been benefitted from newspapers dedicated to the cause of liberty and jus tice for all. * * * * It is a significant fact that books antidate newspapers, and; that newspapers can never take; the place of books.
