POOD TOR NEEDY—Theodore
Carter, director of develop
ment at Bennett College, and
Land-type In
Ocean Raises
Big Question
By Don Seaver
BEAUFORT —Continental- 1
type rocks never before found
on the floor of the open ocean
have been discovered by Col
umbia University scientists and
students working from D ke
University's Research Vessel
"Eastward."
The granitic-type rocks have
been dredged up from the floor
of the Caribbean Sea They
indicate either that a lost con
tinent once rose from these
waters or that nature is now
building a new continent in the
area.
Their discovery also may
have important implications
for other fundamental hypo
theses about the earth's make
up, past and present.
Announcement of the find
was made here by Dr. C. G.
Bookhout, acting director of
Duke's Cooperative Oceanogra
phic Research Program which
operates the Eastward.
Dr. Bookhout said that
large quantities of the "grani
tic material" have been dredg
ed up by Columbia students
led by Dr. Bruce C. Heezen of
Columbia's Lamont-Dohorty
Geological Observatory.
The operation was part of
a three-month international
expedition into Caribbean wa
ters by the Eastward, a cruise
that will end later this month.
The granite-type rock was
brought up form the eastern
flank of the Aves Ridge, a
north-south submarine feature
that extends from Venezuela
to the Virgin Islands.
It may have wide geological
implications. A fundamental
concept of geology is that
light-colored granitic, or acid
igneous rocks are confined to
the continents, and that the
earth's crust beneath the sea is
composed of heavier, dark-col
ored basaltic rocks.
Thus, the occurence of the
light-colored granite rocks on
the sea floor may lend support
to an old theory that a conti
nent formerly existed in the
region of the eastern Caribbean,
and that therefore, these rocks
may represent the core of a
subsided, lost continent, scien
tists here said.
On the other hand, it could
be that the find will lend sup
port to an opposing idea that
continental rocks now are be
ing formed from oceanic rocks
and sediments in the area and
that a continent is in effect
being built up.
FoUowup studies and radio
active dating of the rocks may
now provide the key clue. If
the rock is found to be very
old, this would support the
theory of a lost continent.
The discovery also may have
important implications for the
ories of continental drift and
sea-fk>or spreading, ideas that
have come in for considerable
scientific investigation and re
working in recent years.
Nearly two tons of the
panitic rock were brought
aboard the Eastward during a
two-week period in February.
Hiey were collected from 50
locations between Barbados
and Jamaica.
The expedition, which in its
entirety has involved scientists
from 11 universities, is being
sponsored by the National
Science Foundation and Duke's
coopers tire oceanographk pro

VEA Teachers to Hold Statewide
Clinic on Political Action Apt. 11
RICHMOND, Va.—Guberna
torial candidates in the Demo
cratic primary, William C. Bat
tle, State Senator Henry E.
Howell Jr. and Lieutenant
Governor Fred G. Pollard, and
Republican gubernatorial no
minee Linwood Holton have
accepted invitations to address
a Political Action Clinic of
teachers to be sponsored by
the Virginia Education Associa
tion at Natural Bridge on April
11 and 12.
Other speakers who will in
terpret Virginia's political struc
ture and current trends include
the executive director of the
Virginia Commissions on Con
stitutional Revision, the major
ity and minority leaders of the
Virginia House of Delegates
and the political analyst of the
Norfolk Virginian-Pilot.
In addition to the course in
politics provided by the above
speakers, six successful teacher
politicians will give insights into
politics from their vantage
points in party machinery and
local and state elected posts.
The purpose of the clinic
said Dr. Robert F. Williams,
VEA Executive secretary, is
"to provide our teachers with
an analysis of the political
process and to expose them to
prominent Virginia political
figures, relating the role of the
individual teacher and the
process."
In addition to the clinic
he noted that 11 area legisla

First Black Shopping Center
'Beautiful' to A&P Manager
PHILADELPHIA -Wilford
Smith, black manager of the
A&P supermarket in Progress
Plaza, is a soft-sell salesman.
This is readily apparent in
his conversation and in his
actions as he directs a staff of
more than 70 full-and part
time employees in the spanking
bright and bustling 17,300-
square-foot food center.
Smith's voice reflects pride
in his personal contributions to the
success of a real "going thing."
His involvement is indicated
by his frequent use of "our"
to describe personal (all
black), customers (83 per cent
black) and prices ("no different
from any other A&P").
Smith has come a long way
to get where he is today after
10 years with A&P. First stop
when he arrived 17 years ago
bom Jamaica, was the baggage
room of a local railroad station.
Hie railroads, he says, was
responsible for"the best thing
that ever happened to me."
It laid him off.
Like virtually all A&P men,
he started at the bottom but
moved up the ladder higher and
faster than most. His first
managerial post was a company
■tore in Springfield, Pa. In July
1967 he earned a Philadelphia
■tore assignment at 2206 North
in 1966. as compared with only
one out of eight residents of
metropolitan areas.

on making the teacher's politi

A similar clinic failed to

Winners National Scholarship
Achievement Program Revealed
EVANSTON, m.-Over 340
winners in the fifth National
Achievement Scholarship Pro
gram for outstanding Negro
students were announced to
day by John M. Stalnaker,
president of the National Merit
Scholarship Corporation.
The Achievement Scholar
ship awarded today are of
two different types.
About 110 of the winners
will each receive a four-year
Achievement Scholarship that
provides between $250 and
$1,500 a year, depending upon
the need of each student, to
attend the accredited U. S.
college of his choice. These
four-year Achievement Scholar
ships were provided by 69 orga
nizations, primarily corpora
tions and corporate founda
tions.
The other 230 winners were
awarded National Achievement
SIOOO Scholarships, awards,
which are new in the 1969
program. These 230 new
awards ere one-time, non-re
newable scholarships, with the
SI,OOO grants payable next
fall when the winners enter
accredited colleges or universi
ties. The National Achievement
SIOOO Scholarships are under
written by Ford Foundation
grant funds.
The 1969 winners represent
36 states and the District of
Columbia. Over 38,000 Negro
students from 4,500 schools
nationwide were candidates in
the competition. About 1,450
were named Semifinalists last
fall. Further screening led to
the choosing of 75 Finalists.
All of the new Achievement
Scholars were chosen from the
group of Finalists. Winners of
the National Achievement
SIOOO Scholarships were cho
sen for their outstanding abili
ty and potential for future
accomplishment by a selection
committee made up of experi
enced college admissions direc
tors and high school counselors.
The committee based its selec
tions on data submitted by

the students and the schools,
and on test scores.
The amount received by a
Scholar is not made public
since it Is based on confiden
tial information. The average
flrst-year stipend of the 1969
Achievement Scholars was
$1,168. The four-year scholar
ships can be used at any U. S.
accredited college and conti
nue through the full four years
as long as the student main
tains normal progress toward
a bachelor's degree.
The Achievement Program
seeks to identify, honor, and
encourage outstanding Negro
students generally. In order to
improve college-admission op
portunities, the names of over
1,900 Commended students
were sent to colleges and uni
versities early last fall, and a
list of the highest scoring
10,000 participants in the
1968-69 Achievement Program
was made available to colleges.
The Semifinalists were publicly
announced last October and
individually identified to the
specific colleges in which they
had indicated an interest.
The program is administered
by the National Merit Scholar
ship Corporation of Evanston,
Illinois, which also conducts
the National Merit Scholarship
Program, now in its 14th year.
Negro students may compete
simultaneously in the Merit
Program, but no Scholar may
receive financial assistance
from both programs at the
same time.
O.HOUSEHSEPmS kl
Making resolutions about
housekeeping for the New
Year? The trouble with most
housekeeping-type resolutions
is that they're too hard on the
housewife. Here are four easy
to-keep New Year's resolu
tions:
1. I will stage a sit-down
strike. There are some things
I will not stand for. Ironing,
for example . . . which can be
done sitting down at an ad
justable board. Another ex
ample is chopping up cups of
things like celery, nuts and
potatoes. These cam be chopped
just as well from a sitting posi
tion on a counter-high stool.
2. I will stop being a con
veyor belt. I
will make up
two seta of
cleaning equip
ment, one for
the bathroom, ' J
one for the /
kitchen. This \ /\ /
way I'll save
stairs and steps. In each set
there will be three basics: a
high-concentration pine oil
cleaner-disinfectant, a stiff
brush and a sponge.
3. I will change the color of
Monday. No more blue Mon
days if there are no more wash
days. Instead, I will wash two
loads of wash three times a
week, tucked in between other
chores.
4. I will make use of the 25th
hour. The 25th hour in the day
is the time a woman has to
herself. I'll take it when the
children are napping or at
school or, if possible, just be
fore dinnertime. I'll take a hot
bath, a short rest or read some
thing to keep my mind as ac
tive as my muscles have been.
One hour to myself for such a
small indulgence will help me
remember that it is no longer
true that a woman's work is
never done—if she stops before
she's done in.
And there are the four New
Year's resolutions for easier
and more efficient housekeep
ing in 1969.
THEY ANSWERED THE CALL
There are many ways to
answer a call for help—with
service, with medical aid, with
money, with
compassion.
Sometimes
these respon-
Vfi ses are antici
pated, as when
k the firemen
and policemen
Jonai Salk
times they are not, as when a
passer-by dives into a lake to
keep a small child from drown
ing.
Sometimes they result from
years of research and devotion,
like Jonas Salk's work, where
the outcome was a vaccine that
in 15 years has nearly elimi
nated the crippling threat of
polio.
And sometimes they come
from a sense of obligation and
duty. To Dag Hammerskjold,
the cause of peace was worthy
mof his time,
energy, and
Anally his life.
When his plane
crashed in
Dag 1961, Ham—
Hammerskjold
United Nations secretary
general, was bound for the
Congo, where he was trying to
maintain a cease-fire.

NEW YORK. (ED)—lf the landscape looks rather grey and slushy-and life seems full of
dandruff and clogged drains darling, you do need someone to take you out ot all this.
How about a voice with a slight, but fascinating accent? A smasher in the international set.
Eyes like Omar Shariff and a dash like David Niven. An overseas call that says - "Darling meet
me in Sardinia." And the only problem is what to wear to a legendary island of craggy rocks and
crashing waves and shimmering, golden suns. .... . . ...
When your Alitalia jet floats you gently down onto Sardinia s shores, there is the mystical
feeling of landing on some ancient bird's giant wings. The hundreds ol years have wrought little
change in jagged cliffs . . . winding grottoes . . . and savagely beautiful shores.

in baring, daring swim suits. Or lending a crisp new dash to pant suits that show up from sun-up
to midnight.
Night-time is pure glamour . . . when the international crowd gathers at the Costa Esmerelda
for a peacock parade of fashion. You more than hold your own in the chic department, in a
devastating acetate crepe jump suit. Everybody's watching . . . while all the best men get your
message.
Now!! Where's your next fascinating port of call? Wherever that happy landing, you're sure
of travel-go-lightly clothes that will fit into your fling. Right at your fingertips are all the great,
easy-does-it fashions that let you carry that crisp, fresh American air all over the world.
Low-Cals To Rescue Lovely Shapes
Somedays don't you feel it
takes a miracle to keep a trim
figure and be a "mindstickcr"
for that man of your dreams?
Not really just common
sense.
Meals can be nourishing,
tasty and still r.ot heavy-up the
avoirdupois. And they can per
form that miracle of miracles—
keep the budget in shape too!
Low-cal beverages can be de
pended on as a great ally.
One serving of Tab contains
only one calorie per 6-ounce
serving and it's sugar free. The
remainder of the meal can be
in trim-slimming food. For ex
ample, a molded tomato aspic

broth. Add hard cooked eggs
and chicken for hearty appe
tites. Proceed slimmingly with
a green vegetable and sherbet
sweetened with sugar substi
tute. Only 66 calories per serv
ing in the sherbet and the en
tire meal less than 225 calories.
Whether it be an engagement
party, a shower for the bride or
just a "thanks-for-being-you"
supper for the love of your life,
you'll love this menu—so easy
on the figure, so pretty to look
at and so very pleasant to eat.
Candlelight and roses add the
