INTERVIEW This week's interview column is dedicated to Walter G. Rhodes. Members of St. Joseph's A.M.E. Church ap proached me several times dur ing the past few weeks and asked me to talk to Rhodes. This man apparently means so much to his community that they could not wait any longer to show their appreciation for his deeds. Rhodes is hailed to be one of those disappearing breeds of men who serve their commu nity dutifully for the sheer pleasure of service. His list of achievements speak for them selves. Rhodes was born in Rich lands, North Carolina but spent his childhood and part of his adult life in Wilmington. In 1939 he moved to Durham. He presently resides at 508 Price Avenue with his wife, Gladys H. i Mrs. Rhodes is a teacher at W. G. Pearson Elementary School. Rhodes is employed by Pappa Jacks on E. Pettigrew Street.

Rhodes currently serves as a steward of St. Joseph's A.M.E. Church, 2nd term as President of the Usher's Board of the church, President of the Berean Bible Class, member of the Durham chapter of the NAACP, and member of the Durham Business and Profes sional Chain. Rhodes has also been con nected with the Cub Scouts as Cub Scout Master, Boy Scout Master, and an Explorer advis or* SttUrtO* The Carolina Times feels it is men like Walter G. Rhodes who play influenciai parts in the development of our youth and our city. Durham needs more men like this to become the great city for which it has the potential. Rhodes' friends and neigh bors feel that he does more than his part selflessly and with a sense of dedication to the public, his family, and his church. For this gift of giving, The Carolina Times, your friends, and your church thank you. Chamberlin Honor Roll Mrs. Margaret S.

The songs - with their emphasis on human relation ships - run parallel to the artist's own personal philoso phies and priorities. Her home base for reaching an audience's emotions is an upstairs room built especially for her at Mr. Henry's, an intimate Washington night club. Here the camera captures her and her enthusiastic au dience as they swing together on "Ain't No Mountain High Enough."
