For better or for worst, a 1974 calendar has already been added
to the dutter on ray work-bench. First of all the shiny new orange
and white "Success" calender is a subtle reminder that I won't be
able to catch up my work even if I burn the candle at both ends
until New Year's Eve.
Winter vacations once were a solution to the eye-sore pile of
clippings, letters to family and friends, but as time passed I learned
how to be lazy and spent the winter interlude waiting around for
the Spring harbinger to jolt me away from the hallowed aura
around the television screen. Springtime is a time for being
out-of-doors stirring up the smell of the good earth-a season to
forget chores that bind a free spirit-and so goes the circle of
excuses. . "
A new calendar to remind one that it is much later than one
thinks is an unpleasant morsel to digest. I dislike being prodded
into doing what should be done, however, there is a joy in knowing
that I can be shaken from the clutches of languor.
Soon the season of Homecoming Observances will be upon us,
therefore. Writers Forum will hasten to bridge the gap between
"Family Reunions and "Homecomings:"
The best in dramatic presentations at Union Baptist Church
during the summer was a colorful pageant called the "Twelve
Tribes of Israel" narrated by the illustrous Reverend Mack, pastor
of the Morehead Baptist Church along with the Church's Gospel
Chorus who sang the praises, the hopes, the faiths, the aspirations
of each ttlbe; sponsored by the Up-To- Date-Galeda Club. Mrs.
Addie Mack handled the physical-aspects; Miss Annie M. Dunigan
served as Personal Relations Person.
The best in Anniversary celebrations was the Willing Workers
Missionary Circle's 30th Anniversary Commemoration.
The best well-rounded 15 minute service of the season: A
Recognition Service in honor of Mrs. Celestia Sanders, the recipient
of the "Teacher of the Year" award from the John W. Neal Junior
High School. Mrs. Sanders is teacher of the Dorcas Class who was
in charge of the service. Aside from a shower of praises from the
class president, Mrs. Sattie H. Russ and W. P. Edwards, the
Founder of the Dorcas Class; she was given a "golden rose:" a pin
of appreciation and wishes for many happy returns of good will,
good cheer for your good works. " , i-
A rising vote of thanks goes to the members of Union Baptist
Church and the. Russ Sanders Singers who sang with the Billy
Graham Crusade's 3000 voice choir -recently held in Carter
Stadium in Raleigh; Mmes. Stattie H. Rust, Hat tie P. Part in,
Rosetta Cobb, Sarah Bruce, Irene Hall, Sadie L. Thompson.
The Union Baptist Sunday School won the coveted
"Attendance Trophy" of the 5th District Sunday School
Convention during the Thursday evening session; September 20th;
at the West Durham Baptist Church, on Nixon Street; Dr. Harold J
Cobb pastor. Messers Charles and James Cameron are elated over
winning the trophy, however, the feathers in their caps should have
been awarded for the splendid job they did in recruiting 3 choirs;
the Junior Male Chorus under the direction of Mrs. Mary Shaw; the
Russ-Sanders Singers and The Grady Davis Choir. -
"There Will Be Some Changes Made" was the subject of Rev. N.
R Sanders mwawhen he spoke for Stewardess Board No. 2's
Anniversary Program; "itv. L H. Whelchel, pa'stor. ' The
Russ-Sanders Singers was the guest choir. , .
Miss Pheobe is still "hangingyn there" keeping up with the
many activities at U.B.C. And t .his is no small challenge for man or
bus.
The most aweinspiring program
concert for the Tiny-Tots choir. Mrs
of the Tots' Choir, was so well pie
concert that she was willing, able and
needed vacation. Strangely enoui
not seek a nice quiet resort to spend their vacation, they motored
"up-the-road" to Philadelphia, Pa., Newark and Orange, N.J. where
they visited friends and relations. The absence from routine was
real tonic for Viola, she is much more relaxed and generous with
the smiles. V
Love and kisses to all those persons who are keeping up with the
Jim Whittington Prayer Crusade; Mr. and Mrs. Alfonza Hamilton
and others who punched in during the Raleigh and Greensboro
Crusades.
Our Girl-Sunday, Mrs. Pauline Boxley is still ecstatically happy
over her trip to Nassau. "I traveled with a trio of seasoned
travelers; Mmes. Augusta Jones, Annie Nelson and Marie Taylor.

Miss Madie was aware that she was behaving the way
"ah-heiferish" woman carries on; she wasn't going from one bed to
another like "an strumpet;" but, she was setting a new traffic
record with males. Engaged to one and dating another within
twenty four hours was too much honey for the sugar. She left
"shorty-pants" grinning from ear to ear. And she chalked this
achievement on her "good-deed-a- day" chart. However, she was
more than a little disconcerted by her uninhibited behavior. It was
one thing to be good looking and desirable, but it was another
thing to make one's virtures available to every Tom, Dick and
Harry. She had no excuse to offer in defense of her ingenuous
performances in handling her suitors. The joy of being courted by
Will Deal and Jeff Boy kins had caused her brain to jump time.
Now, she felt like a silly-goose who has followed her goslings into a
dead-fall. She had committed no scarlet sin; neverthless, she was
guilty of foolhardiness. A folly unbecoming to a person of her
upbringing.
"Mister Ben" was fast asleep when Miss Madie arrived with his
honeydew mellon. One moment she wanted to drop the mellon on
his egg-head nestled on the snowy pillow; then, she was touched
with pity for the withered little man whose expression was angelic
as he lay sleeping. His bark was really worse than his bite and she
wished, Mmorsetaflyflliat she led not been so spiteful toward him
for wanting a honeydew melon. And for the first time, she
carressed the greenish-white mellon with gentle fingers.
Miss Madie was eating breakfast when three neighborhood boys
darkened the doorway of the kitchen; one spoke up sheepishly;
"We been here once, Miss Madie."
Her first impression was to shoo the boys away, but upon
second thought she called out cheerfully to them; "come in 'n have
ah-bite of breakfast- your Miss Madie's day started before you
little baboons had tuck your second nap to sleep.
The bovs scampered into the clinically- clean kitchen. Children
loved Miss Madie and, in truth, she was fond of the noisy, dirty
little brats who lived here at Bayborough Heights. Adults found her
snannish 'n nueer: children enioved the way she handed out
ri i - :iwmT r r
affection 'n hot biscuits with butter 'n jelly, apples, oranges
doughnuts 'n milk ' f t
While grown-ups of Bayborough Heights complained of 'bad
half raised, wild younguns," Miss Madie clucked over and around
them like a mother hen. For every age and size, she had a little job
for them to do.
Wadell Square was one of the cleanest, best kept areas in the
City. No scattered toys, automobile tires, bricks and sticks, paper
and rags; no broken down trees and shrubs; no boxes, garden tools
discarded furniture to blight this sector of the Housing project.
Madie Perkins had a way of getting things done with the least
amount of fanfare. She believed with all her heart that there was a
time for all things: a time to eat 'n a time to sleep; a time to play 'n
a time to pick up plunder 'n put it in the right place; a time to slap
sassy mouths; a time to say "no" 4n mean what you say.
While the boys bolted down grits 'n eggs, hot biscuits generously
buttered, she implemented her time with serious thoughts. Jeff
Boykins' proposal of marriage was tempting; but, she was reluctant
to rush in where angles fear to tread. While marriage wasn't the
fartherest hope from her mind, getting adjusted to a husband is no
basement bargain where she and Jeff were concerned; "he sold
I'm old; he's set in his ways 'n I'm nothing short of set in my ways
he's ailing 'n I'm ailing; he wanting to be waited on 'n I'm needing
waiting on; him wanting his back scratched 'n I'm needing mah
own back scratch- ain't goine to be no you scratch my back n 1 11
scratch yours; a man, he marries ah- woman to wait on him hand
foot and a woman is suppose to be grateful she's got him. There are
exceptions to the rule, but they are few 'n far between. For some
unknown reason, she couldn't bury the belief that Jeff wanted
more than a cook 'n somebody to wait on him, "pot 'm spoon
She was hard to fool when ' it comes to recognizing
"ah fly in ah-bowl of buttermilk. He was handsome, well-dressed,
well-educated and the bearer of other good considerations. Aside
from her dubious good looks 'n spotless reputation, she had very
little to offer Jeff of any other man. Her social security was still a
long way off and, if the Kaypots discontinued her meager
allowance, she would not have a leg to stand on. If she were a
young woman, her looks and natural endowments might put her in
good stead; but, when a woman begins courting pains around the
dock, she can forget her looks being a stepping stone to a happy
marriage, Hardwork, epsom salts 'n cream -o tartar, liniment 'n hot
water bottles and brought her safe thus far, therefore she had no
intention of destorying a way life that had served her so well.
The boys' noisy laughter suddenly broke through the wall' of
Miss Madie's muddled brain and she was about to scold them when
Jethro, her favorite tongue-tied boy, came up to her and began
stammering; "what is it, Jetty?", Miss Madie asked.
Elmer and Joe Louis were suddenly seized by uncontrollable
laughter.
"Boys' what's funny?"
Elmer quickly quelled his laughter; "Jethro is trying to tell you
about what Miss Bella McDougaJ did to a guy's car."
Miss Madie was disappointed because she hadn't heard anything
to make her squall. "What was so funnv?" , ..
"You'd have to see what we saw, Miss Madie-- the man cried like
"I reckon so, sonny-boy- I'd have to see what you seed to get
the funny part of your joke." Miss Madie did her best to hide her
great fear? -Continued.

independence. The two
associations conduct a vigorous
federal and state legislative
. program and sponsor a number

Crash Course
North C arolina Central
University's Department of
Geography will begin a
nine-week "crash" course in
city and regional planning for
its junior and senior majors and
minors next Monday,
according to Dr. Theodore R.
Speigner, chairman of the
department.
"Members of public and
private agencies have indicated
a need for more and better
trained planning persons for
the state," Dr. Speigner said.
He said that among the
agencies asking N. C. Central to
train nlannins personnel was
the N. C. Department of
Natural and Human Resources.
Students will attend the
course on Mondays and
Thursdays at 7 p.m., beginning
October 8. Activities will
include formal lectures,
directed group discussions, and
technical presentations using
case studies.
As geography majors and
minors, the students in the
course will have been exposed
to such concepts as land use
planning before beginning the
course, Dr. Speigner noted.
Completion of the course will
result in the awarding of a
certificate.
Students completing the
course, Dr. Speigner said, wlU
be prepared to begin work in
city and regional planning
offices at the apprenticeship
level. "This planning program
win Breatlv Increase the
reservoir of black planners in
the state," Dr. Speigner said.
Direction of the program
will be by the faculty of the
department. In addition,
professional planners and
graduates of master's degree
program! In planning will serve
as Instructors and resource
personnel. Instructors include
James Ward and Owen
Williams, both with matter's
degrees In city and regional
planning. , ;
Among the consultants and
lecturers In the program will be
Alvtn P. Midg -i :i,....m-
and Thomas Ramsey of
Greensboro, both professional
planners.
THE NEW DIRECTIONS
will be presented in concert by
the Music . Ministry of First
Presbyterian Church of
Durham on Saturday evening,
October 13, at 7:30 p.m., and
on Sunday morning, October
14, at the 11:00 am. Morning
Worship hour.
The NEW DIRECTIONS is a
singing group of forty-eight
young people in their teens and
early twenties which is both
versatile and contemporary.
This group has made concert
tours tij&mete&nto
Statesfaiftdr, WexTco,
Jamaica, and Haiti entrancing
audiences with their up-tempo
sound and message-music of
modern-day Christianity. They
were featured during Billy
Graham's Great South Eastern
Crusade in the spring of 1972.
In 1968 a group of
teenagers from Alamance
County in North Carolina
started meeting together
weekly for the purpose of
growing in the Christian life. If.
was not long before their vision
exceeded the boundaries of
their own county and so they
launched out on faith and
toured Southeastern and
Southwestern United States
and Mexico for 18 days to tell
others of the joy, purpose, and
"new direction" they were
sharing their faith and
enthusiasm, and so everywhere
they went they would not only
speak out- but sing! The
response was so encouraging
that is seemed God was
directing them to start a full
time witness ministry centered
around music- and so at the
conclusion of their 1968
Mexican tour "The New
Directions" was bom. At first
they were based at the YMCA
in Burlington, but as time
progressed, the ministry grew
in scope to the extent that in
November of 1970 they
stepped out in faith, separated
themselves from' the YMCA,
incorporated and became a full
time contemporary Christian
out-reach youth ministry.
The NEW DIRECTIONS
group was founded by J. L.
Williams, a graduate of the
Duke University Divinity
School; he is also the director.
The NEW DIRECTIONS
operates from full time offices
in Burlington and Charlotte
with numerous outreach
programs on college campuses.

Rev. William C. Smith and
Courts Order
Black Teachers
Reinstatement
WASHINGTON-The U.S.
Department of Justice won
two important appellate court
rulings in September in school
desegregation cases, Attorney
General Elliot L. Richardson
announced ' recently.
Mr. Richardson said the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the
Fourth Circuit in Richmond,
Virginia, reversed in part a trial
court's decision that denied a
Justice Department request
that 10 black teachers be
rehired in Chesterfield County,
South Carolina.
The Department had
charged that the teachers were
dismissed on racial grounds.
The appellate court ordered
them reinstated and directed
that they be awarded the wages
they would have earned since
their dismissals. , .
The U.S. Court of Appeals
r the Fifth Circuit in New
Orleans, Louisiana, overruled a
trial court decision that denied
the Justice Department's
request for an order requiring
die Louisiana State Board of
Education and the Evangeline
Parish school district to stop
providing textbooks and
transportation to students
attending the segregated,
all-white Evangeline Academy.
The appellate court ruled
that the Louisiana action was
similar to a Mississippi Law
recently held uncontitutional
by the Supreme Court
The rulings highlighted
Justice Department legal
actions during September to
achieve equal opportunities for
blacks and other minority
group members.
FAIR HOUSING The Justice
Department's Civil Rights
Division filed two housing
discrimination suits last month
and sought to join in a private
fair housing suit.
One suit charged a home
builder in Dayton, Ohio, with
quoting higher prices to black
prospective buyers.
The other suit charged the
A lexander County Housing
Authority in southern Illinois
with racially segregating
tenants in the eight low-rent
projects containing more than
500 units it operates in the
Cairo area.
In addition, the Justice
Department asked to intervene
in a suit challenging a civil
rights ordinance enacted by the
City of Upper Arlington, Ohio,
