County CANTON, Miss —ln % county where official figures show that registered white voters amount to more than the number of voting age whites, CORE work ers have helped to register over 4,000 Negroes in the past three weeks. Madison County has 5,622 voting age whites and 6,256 registered white voters. Until this past month, the num ber of Negro registered voters was below 300 out of a total Negro voting age population of over 10,000. Other developments in Madi son County include the deseg regation of the county's school system, whereby over 100 Ne gro youngsters will attend pre viously all white schools for grades 1, 2, 3, and 12. During the summer, over 400 Negro youngsters participated in the Operation Headstart program, the largest such program in Mississippi.

Football Squad CHARLOTTE Twenty-five freshmen were among the 75 football players reporting for training at Johnson C. Smith University here last week. The Golden Bulls, who open the 1965 campaign against Ben edict College here Saturday night, Sept. 18, immediately began an intensed training pro gram which will include two workouts each day for the next two weeks. A flock of prized backfield candidates and several linemen of high caliber were among the reporting rookies. McGirt is especially high on a couple of ne># fullbacks and two of his quarterbacks. Bruce Bivins, a roughed 219 pounder from Newark, N. J. and Vannoris Jones. 195-pounder from Win ston-Salem are expected to pro vide keen competition for the fullback post. Derrick Reece, who is 6'3 and 180, is expected to bolster the talented-rich quarterback position. Reece is from Detroit, Mich., David Bunch, 187-pound native of Richmond, Va. also figures pro minently in the quarterback situation. James Banks, Leon Butler, and Ed Hargrave, a trio of speedsters head the new half backs. 175-pound Banks is from East Rutherford, N. J., 180- pound Butler is a native of Cherryhill, N. J. and Hargraves, 180-pounds, hails from Goshen, N. Y. However, the top com petitor for one of the half backs is marvelous Marvin Phillips, 185-pound galloper from Gastonia, who sat out the 1964 campaign. A slick runner, Phillips averaged 6.6 yards each time he carried the pig skin during his freshman year. Coach Eddie McGirt, who needs linemen as badly as Ne groes want their civil rights, may find the answer in sev eral new men. Noah Barnes, 230 pounder from Richmond, Va., Coleman Tyrance, 230- pound native of Jacksonville, and Edgar Farmer, 245-pound erer from Fayetteville. may solve the problem at the tackles and David Carelock, 185-pound er from Fayetteville, may on, 205-pounder from Winston- Salem. Willie Mitchell, 185- pounder from Coca, Fla., and Harry Johnson, 280-pounder from Miami, Fla., may supply the answer at the guards. Halfback Ivory Tate of Greensboro ajnd quarterback Al genon Goddard of Columbia, S. C. are other freshmen who brought excellent credentials to the Smith campus. M • "" I rIHJP:;; MON. SAT.

The documentary, "The Young Man From Boston," deals with the personal as well as the public life of the late President John F. Kennedy. Joseph Cotton does a beauti ful job narrating the film.
