Therefore, for due recognition, / am calling it. Untitled II By Author Anonymous God made the bright and shining stars and scattered them in space, He made the clouds of softest white and set them in their place... He gave the sun its warmth and shine, the moon its golden glow, I He sets the planets in their course. He made the rain and snow... ; He made the seasons- Winter, Spring, the Summer and the Fall, He made the flowers. He made the birds that nest in treetops tall... He made each good and precious thing with a pattern sure and true. And then, to make it all complete, a special person...You! Why stand around crying ladies and gentlemen, we know hat this next piece of poetry comes after us, at some joint in life, there will be...

Misery By Fannie Rose Covington c. 198J It’s such a shame. When you have no one to blame For your misfortune and lost fame. Try to remember my name. I’m the one who started this crazy game. Which gave me no prize to claim. Some think that we were insane. Can you still remember my name? This experience left me somewhat lame; Your heart and mind I could not tame. Still you remain the same. How can you forget my name? After all, I am the one responsible for all your pain. My name is still the same. A Boss By Azzie Wagner c. 1976 A boss is not just a person. Who sits behind a desk Nor is he a dictator of duties Screaming orders without “finesse’' A boss is a counselor, of course When employees need his touch- To assist in the proper areas To guide and not be a crutch! A boss is not someone Who’ll always point a finger at you- When you’re wrong and being misled- He’ll quietly have conference with you! He’ll look at the problem objectively And figure the best way out- He’ll do it tactfully and politely- And not embarrass you, scream or shout! A boss is the symbol of tolerance The epitome of managerial hope- He can be as strong as the rock of Gibralter But when relaxed can manage a joke! He is apathetic enough to realize That humans are not machines- He does not set “unreal limitations” Nor propose the impossible dream. He can understand when typing errors Run rampant in a day- Or you forget to be as efficient- As your handbook will officially say. He can say to you in the kindest voice “I understand, we all have bad days- Tomorrow will be a new beginning- We’ll solve the problem “some kind of way” All of these qualities are possessed- by experience and expertise Sprinkled with the “seasoning” of kindness Mellowed by time release. Benevolent, Original, Sincere, Steadfast = BOSS! ^PARTING: The space in the paper and the clock on v/all says it’s time to go. May God smile on you and '"'love a VERY GOOD WEEK! BYE!

For one thing, black col lege teams are eager to get away from the label “black”. “We like to think of ourselves as a good football team, not a good black college football team,” says Coach Rudy Hubbard of Florida A&M. “If we can recruit some top white athletes,” says Robinson, “and any one of them can graduate and get into professional football, well, that’s it - we’ll be on our way.” NEW!!!

He even had two jobs- working for the New York City Department of Sanitation during the day, and driving a taxi at night.” And what was the final goal for David’s father? “Well,” explains the Spyro Gyra bassist, “when I was nine, he was able to move the family to a nice house out in Teaneck, New Jersey, where we’ve lived ever since, he wanted us to grow up in a good enviroment, which is just what Tea- neck was. All kinds of people lived there-black and white-and got along rally well.” Mr. Woffard has since seen his efforts pay off, with a family full of college graduates and a son who’s a member of Spyro Gyra, one of the most popular jazz instru mental groups in the World.
