In Retrospection: The '50s
were the golden years for the
Union Baptist Senior Choir.
A three points progressive
program was launched. The
The 5 cents weekly dues van

the Anthem was added to the
Order of Service.
1955, the Senior Choir's
55th Anniversary year.a was
the year of "Re-dedication."
The choir had become acutely
aware of post-war changes in
the community and, natural
ly, the sweeping changes in
the attitude of the church go
ing public, and, the outmoded
methods of the traditional
church choirs. The 1995 Pro
gram Committee was made
up of dedicated persons
whose sole interest was in
protecting the Senior Choir
at its best.
Mrs. Mozelle Flintall was a
member of the '55 Commit
tee. A silent worker: a quiet
partner; a beautiful, unas
suming, big sister type of co
worker. While others fuss 'a
fume threaten to quit Mrs.
Flintall is the sage one of
the bunch. And, in, a noncha
lant, honied tone, she rallies
the diminishing courage of
any irate committeeman.
"Miss Mozelle" may not al
ways agree with what's hap
pening, but she is not one to
upset the whole applecart in
an effort to force the action
in her favor . ;
The lady under scrutiny is
not a "duckling-' in the choir;
she began her "singing ca
reer" under the supervisor!
and direction of Mr.Mrs.
John Gattis, Sr. and, between
you and me, that was not in
the 40s.
The well groomed Mrs.
Flintall never hurries; and,
if silence can quell the fires
of contention, she knows how
to give the situation the sil
e n.fc treatment. Therefore,
those who might defy her,
slowly but surely put forth
an effort to be more agree
able. Mrs. Flintall has two won
derful children, John Jr. and
Celestine. Both are married

MRS. MOZELLE FLINTALL
Mrs. Mozelle Flintall, after
decades of unobtrusive parti

adheres to the Golden Rule:
"Do unto others as ye would
have them do unto you." The
results .are gratifying; she
gets a job done with a mini
mum amount of dissonance.
Mrs. Mozelle Flintall is the
daughter of the late Mrs. Se

The puror sweet, goodness of

White as only white can be.
Cold, covering, killing, white,
White that blankets the

White that stops the rush of

Pure-sweet-good white.
But wait, what can this be?
Blacker than 100 midnight!,
darker than the cypress

The pure-sweet-goodness that

With a shovel he comet.
Tearing, and throwing, ttrug-

The white fights back,
With cold, with wind, with a

Helen Kaypot had put hem in

"praise the Lord," she had
come along in time to "fish
'em out." The only thing
wrong with those "skins" was
onemigsini eye arid a claw.
Miss1 Madie 'admitted that she
had seem some folks with "two
eyes and two paws" who were
not worth as much as her
"skins." Her practically new
fur stole hadn't been worn ,
more than half dozen times in
five years and she had invested
a fortune, $29.50, in that mer
chandise. The mission sisters,
had raved over the birth stone
she had come by when she
turned in 325 snuff coupons,
so much so, that she had left
off saying how she had come
by it.
Bayborough boasted six dif
ferent banking establishments;
Miss Madie had a hundred dol
lars "salted down" in three
of these. She had tne risks all
figured out in case the bank
doors begdn closing; three cat
ches out of six was better than
losing your "skirt on the mar
ket." If old man Kaypot never
spoke again, she had learned
the part about "losing your
shirt on the market" from him.
Her gloves and handker
chiefs were put out of Curt's
"wifie's reach. She had no in
tention of sharing 'n sharing
alike when it came to her
dainties."
She stored a few other things
tnat might not mean much to
anyone else, but they all added
up to a lot of memories that
served as a sort of a guideline
when she went shopping for
certain cheapstakes. She didn't
give to receive 'n she didn't
buy a more expensive gift to
show how cheap your gift was;
she just didn't give any more
than she received. Besides, she
had a long list of names of
folks who had left a little some
tning with her when they made
sick calls. She checked this list
before visiting the sick and
gabe vack just what she had
received from them. First time
arounds were treated with dis

anyone's bank or destroyed
one's confidence.

CUB SCOUTING
fc L. KEARNEY
Our son is a Cub Seoul
Scouting is a program for
boys between the agea of
eight and eleven.
Scouting is controlled by
trained leaders and adminis
tered by the Cub Scouts'
mothers and fathers. The Cub
Scout program is home cen
tered of his parents. He be
longs to a neighborhood den
which meets once a week
with a Den Mother and a
Den Chief. His den joins with
other dens in forming a Pack
which meets once a month
under the leadership of a Cub
Master. Cub Scouting's pro
grams consist of simple skills
and group activities carefully
chosen to challenge a boy
between the ages of eight
and eleven years.
Scouting further seeks to
develop in youth of all ages
a real Scout spirit through
an active program with pled
ges and promises to follow.
These pledges offer to a boy
a continuing growth in ever
expanding ideals. It is this
kind of challenge that seeks
to develop the boy into a
good citizen in his home, his
community, and in the na
tion. Scouting emphasizes the
need for religion in the lives
of youth and looks to the
church or synagogue as a
guide and friend in all acti
vities. Scouting is a volunteer
movement to serve boys
wherever they are found
not withstanding different
economic conditions, differ
ent racial backgrounds, and
different religious beliefs.
Scouting depends largely
on the interested citizens and
organizations of each commu
nity those who like to be
with boys and work with
them and who are convinced
that something can and must
be done for their young peo
ple through their own adult
volunteer leaders. A group of
leaders forms the unit com

the unit since it is primarily
the guide in the leadership,
program, and membership of
its unit.
Cub Scouting in our, coun
try has drawn upon the dra
matic lore and lure of the
American Indian for program
background. Cub Scouting's
promises and law were built
with the advice of educators
who were specialists in deal
ing with boys of the pre-teen
ages. Many handicrafts were
developed in recognition of
this period as an opportune
time to develop skills. Ori
ginal creative efforts were
thus stimulated. The aim is
not to develop technical skill
but rather to help boys dis
cover hobbles through these
exploratory efforts.
The system of electives and
achievements was instituted
to force practice in making
decisions as well as to enable
boys to follow their individ
ual preferences.
Cub Scouting's final objec
tive, through its advancement
plan and program, is to grad
uate a Cub Scout who is sti
mulated and prepared to
participate in the Boy Scout

OUR FUTURE IS BUILT T ; 'l !
MOSTLY FROM PAST M ffr: Jj
? EXPERIENCE sei
By WILLIAM THORPB$$SiSfeO
Have you ever stopped to
consider that you are where
you are at this very moment
because of what you are?
Each new experience you've
had in life has changed you,
has done something to you,
has given you a greater edu
cation, greater wisdom, and
greater understanding than
you've ever had before,
whether you realize it or not.
Some of you may say: "I'm
worse off today than I was a
few years or months ago." If
you are, it's probably be
cause you haven't made prop
er use of the experiences and
opportunities you have had.
In my opinion, our failures
have been just as important
to us as our successes. Our
failures should have taught
us how not to do things and
what to do next time in order
to attain success. But we
have been so up set by OUT
failures that we regarded
our time and effort spent at
a total lots. We should re
member that every man or
woman who hat gained any
worthwhile success in life has
had to learn to rite above
failure and to ute each fail
ure as an added stepping
ttone to success.
It is good to know that the
path to greater happiness
than we have ever experi
enced is not easy since we
are those who must take
the steps on this path.
As time moves on this year,
our future can only contain
what we have built into our
past, since we are laying the
foundation now for that
which it to happen tomorrow
and the day after that and all
daya to come. It it our teak
to remove all weak stones
from that foundation. Other
wise we may unconsciously
be building a structure that
will collapse and topple over
upon us.
Yes, our future is entirely
what we make it. Therefore,
it would be wise for all of
us to expect cheerful condi
tions around us. Lookfor
agreeable companion!. Alto,
show a sincere interest in the
activities and problems of
thote dear to you and they
will respond by showing a

ANNIVERSARY OF GREENSBORO
"SIT-IN" POUR IS REMEMBERED
An interesting and now re
called as a revolutionary event
was re-lived by Frank McCain,
David Richmond, Jib real Kha
zan and Joe McNeil this past
Saturday as they observed the
13th Anniversary of that date
whn they walked into F.W.
Woolworth's of Greensboro and
took a seat to be served.
It will be recalled that the
then, four nervous college
freshmen, sat for mare than an
hour, ignored by waitresses, who
refused to serve them because
they were black. They again
came the next day and vowed
to remain until they could be
served on the same basis as
whites. A new term "sit-in"
was added to the lexicon of
the civil rights movement.
Returning to the scene on
Saturday, the four were prompt
ly served. They were Wool
worth's guests at a reunion
commemorating the 13th anni
versary of the original sit-in.
as they reminisced about events
leading up to their taking the
stand it was recounted that
they were doing just what they
felt had to be done. A campus
bull session had been the spark
for the action.
Today, the four are leading
quite successful lives. McCain,
now 32, is an executive with Ce
lanese Corporation in Charlotte.
Khazan, 31, is a teacher in a
construction program in the
Boston area. McNeil, 30, is now
employed in the commercial
lending department of Bankers
Trust Company in New York.
Richmond, 31, is an official of
the Manpower program in
Greensboro.
All of them remarked that
the sit-in profoundly changed
their lives, both at the time
it was taking place and in the
years since. The feeling is also
expressed that they feel that
things can be changed in this
world and it can start from any
spontaneous act which becomes
the catalyst for the action.
Further, they gained much mon
insight as to the needs of ail
oppressed people as their life
styles and occupations made
them much more aware of this
facet of society.

Kansas City Chiefs picked up
running back Willie Ellison and
quarterback Pete Beathard from
the Los Angeles Rams for line
backer Bob Stein and two draft
choices and traded defensive
end Aaron Brown to the Green
Bay Packers for defensive tackle
Francis Peay.
The draft itself appears to
have pleased the NFL coaches
who have called these college
seniors "a bumper crop" but a

for lesser known players. Run

University of Miami said "I was
shocked I was around that
