(Slip Barren %rrord Published Every Friday By The Record Printing Company BIGNALL JONES. Editor ? DUKE JONES, Business Manager Member North Carolina Press Association ENTERED AS SECOND-CLASS MATTER AT THE POST OFFICE IN WARRENTON, NORTH CAROLINA, UNDER THE LAWS OF CONGRESS "Second Class Postage Paid At Warrenton, N. C." SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One Year. $3.00; Six Months, $1.50 Students Win Honors Both the publication of a news paper and Warren County can be frustrating at times, but both have their bright moments. One of these bright moments comes with an nouncements of honors won by War ren County school children. An unusual high honor came to Warren County schools last Satur day when students took top honors in the district science fair held at Durham. Sixteen counties are in this district and the Warren schools won more awards than any other county represented. Education is much more than the acquiring of knowledge. Of prime importance is the ability to apply knowledge. The exhibits in four white schools of the county during the re cent science fairs show that parti cipating students have learned much about the scientific facts of the world and more important have learned to apply this knowledge. Older citizens of the county who attended the schools of the past must have been deeply impressed by the scope of teaching and the ability of the students as they witnessed the biological and physical science exhibits. Had the students won no district honors their parti cipation in the local school fairs reflected credit upon themselves and their schools and the cause of quality education. That they won in district competition is an fdied credit. The students, their parents and their schools can take just pride in a job well done and we offer them all our sincere congratulations. Another Opponent In a recent article by Virginus Dabney, editor of The Richmond Times Dispatch, in Harper's Mag azine he listed the six outstanding universities of the South. They are Tulane, the University of Virginia, Vanderbilt, The University of Texas, Duke University and the University of North Carolina. We should take pride that two of the six are in North Carolina. Dabney sketched pertinent facts about each of the universities. In his sketch about the University of North Carolina he commented that it was ironical that the Legisla ture had inflicted upon the Univer sity a "Pernicious" gag law. Thus this distinguished man of letters Joins a growing list of distinguish ed men condemning this law. A few days ago we talked with an honor student of Duke Unlver Rude Awakening The Chapel Hill Weekly For those In Chapel H1U and elsewhere who have been coasting along on the assump tion that the new network of community col leges will soon ease the enrollment bind In the Consolidated University, there seems to be a rude shock in store. Ralph E. Fadum, Dean of Engineering of N. C. State, believes that instead of lighten ing UNC's load, the community colleges will make the Consolidated University's enroll ment problem all the greater. "Let us not deceive ourselves," Dr. Fadum ?aid last week, "Into thinking that the com munity college will take the enrollment bur dens off the University." Instead, he predict ed, the community colleges will interest "Many young people in getting degrees who never would have sought degrees before." Host of those who enroll in community colleges and complete two years of higher education will not be content to stop there. They will be looking for places to continue, and considerably more than half of them will be .looking straight at the branches of the Consolidated University. Uhlees a vast expansion program In the Conailldatsd University Is begun now, most of those coming out of community colleges will find themselves banging vainly on closed In light at present conditions and what is in store, It seems almost inconceivable that the Legislature would refuse to take slgnlfl A Little Child tall Teach Them N.

We were naturally flattered to learn from him that a recent editorial concerning the cooperation between Duke and Carolina "had won a place of honor on the main bulle tin board of that school. We were even more pleased to learn that our editorial efforts to have the Gag Law repealed met with his rnmmpnriaHnn Duke as a private school is not affected by the Gag Law and the President of that great institution has stated that he wanted Duke stu dents to be exposed to all shades of opinions. Evidently he has more con fidence in the youth of North Caro lina than has the North Carolina Legislature. We know that students of the University of North Carolina feel a sense of shame that their school is afflicted by this law and "that educators know the school is being damaged. To learn that Duke students also oppose this law and its Implications give's hope that ultlm lmpllcatlons gives hope that ul timately this truly pernicious law will be removed from our statute books.

S. Constitution. And Negroes have made effective use of demon strations In their struggle to become full citizens, free from the enslaving racial discrimi nations. But demonstrations alone will not make the Negro free and equal "In reality" as well as "In proclamation," as the president of Shaw Univer sity emphasized in a profound ly significant speech before a Johnston County Negro organi zation in Smlthfleld Monday night. The brilliant young Shaw president. Dr. James E. Cheek, expressed some views which are not popular among many Negro protest leaders a;>d fol lowers. He spoke of the respon sibilities which Negroes them selves have In overcoming low alms, rising above mediocrity, and attaining standards of ex cellence In various areas of living. When a white segregationist admonishes the Negro to be come more responsible and im prove himself, the motivation behind the admonition is sus pect. Negroes protesting against discrimination under standably resent advice about "responsibility" from persons who have no sympathy for their aspiring to full citizenship. But no Negro who honestly promotes the "Negro cause" should re sent the advice which Dr. Cheek has given. The president of Shaw rejoices In the gains which Negroes have made In their struggle for civil rights. Still, the president of Shaw Is a wise leader who sees that neither the Civil Rights Act of 1964 nor the proposed Voting Rights Act of 1965 will make the Negro free "In reality."

C. la his Smlthflaid address, Dr. Cheek sought to Inapt raNegroat to harness their economic re sources and make contribution! to tha development of business and Industry In their communi ties . Ha challenged Johnston County Nagroas to make better use of thalr educational oppor tunities, to be Intelligent In their exercise at the suffrage right, to transform thalr churches lntc institutions that teach "self lmprovement, child care, self respect, self-dl?tnlty, Indust rious , thrift?rather than some sentimental interpretation ol the Gospel with Its sights- or heaven and none on earth." The worst of the tragic ef fects of segregation and dis crimination. Dr. Cheek said, "has been the development In us of a sense of inferiority. We have been told so long that we are inferior that we believed it ourselves." Then Dr. Cheek chided: "Feeling that we don't count for much, we don't aim for very much. We have ac cepted standards of mediocrity for standards of excellence. We have contented ourselves with getting by rather than achiev ing." Let no white person misin terpret what Dr. Cheek has emphasized. The Irresponsi bility or the mediocrity of many Negroes does not Justify racial discrimination?the withholding of citizenship rights from the Negro race. If this is the test, citizenship rights would have to be withheld from the white race also, for many members of the white race are guilty to Ir responsibility and mediocrity. But the Negro people Just now Will greatly help their civil rights struggle along If they heed the advice which Dr. cheek has given. Demonstrations will never be an adequate substitute for lndustrlousness, genuine learning, and high ambition in bath moral and material realms. Without these virtues no members of any race can achieve the good life, no matter how many constitutional guar antees are proclaimed and en forced for human benefit.
