BUT JESUb CHRIST THE
SAVIOR OF SINNERS HAS
ALWAYS DEMANDED UN
CONDITIONAL. SURRENDER
He aaks for surrender and gives
in exchange the only true free
dom there is — the freedom
found in the will'of Ood with its
}o pue uoi)va{B6
joy, love and forgiveneas. Too
many of us this afternoon have
surrendered with Ifs, Reserva
tions, and conditions, but Jesus
surrendered unconditionally
the will of the father. He left
His matchless throne in Glory
condescended to be bom ^ . in a
Manger and tasted death for ev
ery man that he might wash us
from our sins in his own blood
and make us "KIMGS AND
PRIESTS.”
Isador Boyd Oglesby, Lyric
Tenor, Captivates Audience
In First Hometown Redtal
How can we capture the souls
of men when he haa not captur
ed our souls by unconditional
surrender! “If any man will
come after me let him deny him
self take up his cross and follow
Dr. Canipe told the nearly
1,000 persons composed mostly
of white men and women and a
few Negroes that, “It is wrong
to send armaments to people
overseas who don’t know
Christ.”
Said Dr. Canipe further, “we
must believe in only one kind of
evangelism, the kind that brings
souls into the Kingdom of God.
Singing a few songs at the Ki-
wanib Club and the Rotary Club
is not enough.”
The meeting is being held in
preparation of a revival service
in Baptist churches east of the
Mississippi river to be held in
1951.
A pure example of recital
style, as distinguished from op
era style was offered to a repre
sentative ifroup of music lovers
by Isador Boyd Oglesby, tenor,
in his first recital at home fol
lowing a Baltimore debut in De
cember. Mr. Ogl««by appeared
in the B. N. Ihik® Auditorium,
under the auspices of the Hamp
ton AJumni Aaaociation.
He displayed an unusual na
tural voice of exceptional range
and depth, accompanied with
poise, vigor, and a winning
stage personality which marked
bis appearance through the per
formance. He was accorded ev
ery courtesy and aoclaim by the
modern composers, his presen
tation emphasized that great
volume and tonal magnitude is
not necessary to convey voc^
intensities. On last Wednesday
night his voice never attained the
immense size which often exists

through sensitive shading, dic
tion perfection and expression,
there was no sense of smallness
present. At time the voice float
ed through etherial lyrical pas
sages and then plunged in dra
matic fervor which captivated
kis audience — and left them
hopfiig for new vocal surprises.
His treatment of “Oh! Do-
lore,” “Ed lo Vivea” from At-
tila gave brilliance and tnily
dramatic expression of the artist.
The spirituals he sang after in
termission proved to be of last
ing impression on an audience
that felt so close to him.
The tneor and his superb ac
companist, Orville Moseley, were
able to evoke from their presen
tation new freshness and vital
ity to some of the better known
art songs as well as the Negro
spirituals. Mr. Moseley is head
of the Department of Music at
Jlorgan State College.
Mr. Oglesby, who is growing
in artistic statute has gained ad
ded to previous report that he

holds promise of taking his right

stage at the present time.
Acceptance—
Negro's Goal Says
Dr. Edmunds
RALEIGH
Dr. Helen G. Edmunds, Pro
fessor of History at Nortti Caro
lina College, delivered tlie Ne
gro History Week address at
Shaw’ University Sunday alter
noon at 4:30 o’clock at exercises
held in University Church. Dr.
Edmuuds spoke on the subject,
“Freedom With Opportunity.”
The Negro race, in 85 years of
freedom, has hatl one goal, the
speaker declared: “to be accept
ed as a true American citizens
with all the rights and privileges
thereto appertaining.” Tlie race
is no longer entirely neglected,
Dr. Edmunds thought.
“We have come from a period
of ignoring the Negro to a per-
ioil in which hn has become a
focal point of national interest,”
she said. “The problem has been
laid at the door of the national
government, and the government
must at least pay lip service to
a consideration of it.”

Bandmaster At
Music Meet
N & I Rattlers
Ready For
Morehouse
TALLAHASHEK, FLA.
With the opening of the 1^6o
S. 1. A. C. baseball season, Coach
O. A.. Moore has already begun
to send his ambitious prospects
through conditioning drills so
that they will be ready to open
a 26 game schedule beginning
with Morehouse College on
March 24 at Tallahassee.
Coach O. A. Moore will have
a tremendous task carving a
team out of the 40 or more candi
dates. His job will be lighten/1
somewhat by the return of
twelve veterans, nine of thenj be
ing letternien. The men return
ing are: AI McCoy, infielder;
t’osta Kittles, catcher; P. Hugh
es, infielder; R. Lumpkins, in
fielder; J. Singletary, outfilder;
F. Hearst, outfielder; L. Jones,
infielder; and T. P(M)le, C. King,
A. .lones, pitchers. This years’
team will be built around these
men.
On the first day of practice
Coach Moore stated that “all
positions are open.” This means
that every man, old and new a-
lige, will have to w'ork hard ev
eryday to earn a position on the
team. Oyer 4^) men reported for
the first ]>ractice session. Fifteen
of the.se men were battery candi-
late.H, while the remaining 25
were infieldrs and outfielders.
The 1950 Rattler baseball
team will definitely "be a threat
for the S. I. A. C. Championship,
liast year the llattlers had a 9 9
season, giving them an average
of .500. They will be out to bet
ter that mark this year. The Hat-
tlers will depend upon some of
the freshmen prospects for a
rreat deal of strenpth, and if
they come through the 1^50 R;it-
iler S(|uad should be one of the
>es( teams in the S, I. A. C.
