There is something special
about the man. You can sense
it the moment you walk into
his crowded office.
There is almost always
someone there to see him. But
the man never seems to tire.
He greets everyone with the
same straightforward manner,
a heafty handshake and a
small but meaningful smile.

Discuss Rat
At the regular meeting of
the Baptist Ministers Conference
and Associates, members
of the local city
government will be on hand to
discuss the recent change that
the city of Winston-Salcm is?
one of the worst in the nation
in its hiring of blacks.
The Rev. W.C. Hay said
that at one of their recent
a . ? -
meetings tne ministers stated
that they were alarmed at the
recent statement made by the
Justice Department.
The ministers sent all city
officials letters which stated in
part that they were
"alarmed" about the report
which stated "that our city is~*
the most segregated city in
our nation in regard to

His office is lined with
trophies, plaques, and awards
but "the chief" as some of his
players call him is always
pushing to attain one more.
His teams reflect his personality,
energetic, businesslike
and successful.
This year's team has been
one of his best. After losing
three of their first seven
games they proceeded to take

Rev. Hay said the purpose
of meeting with the officials is
to see just what can be done to
change this "unfortunate
situation".
The charge came after a
recent report which was done
by the Southern Regional
Council in Atlanta which
stated that a high official in
the U.S. Department of
Justice reported that another
high official in Winston-Salem
said the employment record in
Winston-Salem was on^ of the
worst. J
However, city officials
denied the charges.
The meeting will be held at
the First Baptist Church on
North Highland Avenue.
