Little Noise Being Made Over Junior High School Redistricting Monday night the Kinston City . School Board accepted a junior high school districting plan of > fared by Superintendent Max Abbott and so far there has been very little public complaint over the plan. . Under this adopted district ing all seventh graders this year living east of Queen Street? south of Vernon,, east of NC ^highway U and south of Dunn Hoad would be assigned to Ad kin Junior High School and all other seventh graders will be assigned to Harvey Junior High School. The principal reason there is little complaint is that there re mains very few white school aged children in this general area that has been assigned to previously all-Negro Adkin Jun ior High. Rapid integration of Simon Bright Apartments, which was the last large group of white people living east of Queen St. and the assignment of white children to previously all-Negro Sampson Elemeptary School in the present school year-;; caused a mass exodus of those: ■white parents who strongly »ob-, iected to sending their children to Negro schools. These two situations had re sulted 'll! the de-fuzing of the problem. Although there are still sev eral hundred white schootaged children living in this section sliced off for the Adkin Junior nigh School district those who remain have either accepted .pub lic school integration or have de cided that there is no “way out.” Work has now begun on a new elementary school at the corner of Bright and McDaniel Streets but it will not be ready £0r use when school opens next fall. Its enrollment if it were open now would be party white and predominantly colored, but •by the time it iff ready for oc cupancy it is agreed that it wll be practically 100 per cent col ored.

The Federal bureaucrats crowd-- into the white schools'Negro pupils who ate not prepared; dictate what is to be taught; tell school au thorities what they must do. We now have the HEW as the school board and the Federal judigea as superintendents. Those con ventionally chosen to run the schools — presumably the most competent — supply iake orders from judges who know next to nothing about education. There raw be only one conclusion: chaos. iWjtiy&SEi OHwr _ FAB EAfTERN ECONOMIC REVIEW.

So he started a funeral home in his house. Soon he was s6 swamped with orders that be had to hire a full-time carpenter. His next project, and a more ambitious one, is to start a pet cemetery. Cats are popular all over the world.'Many centuries ago the Emperor TlberiuaGraeo so ad mired the oafs independence that he cast their image in one of .the temples m Rome. Lenin also was a great admirer of cats. And in Egypt, of course, they were consideredgods. bacfc to Chile, the vet should pay more at £ ©roe better service to cats.

The young businessman claims that he doesn’t discrim ination against dogs. It is only a question of size.

It is these people, the likes of Pusey of Harvard, who have made a world-wide laugh ing stock of Southerners, made people all over the world think of Southerners as barbarians. And now the monster they creat ed is tearing them apart. And I rejoice. * * * Were Harvard what once it was, a good, my reaction would be totally different. I would feel1 a deep sense of shock at its throes. But it is not a good. It is, as it has been for a genera tion, an evil thing and as such I hope it dies. It is not probable it will die, -but I wish it would. I wish it were destroyed as was Sodom, Utterly destroyed, r am sick to my vitals of both Harv ard and those pudgy, milk-white, not-quite-grown, somehow-effim inate creatures, the sly schem ers, who comprise its faculty. These weaklings, the get of 4v weaklings, have all but con founded our country. And to hear them yipe, to see them squirm from the brand they have heated does my soul good. Yes, sir. If I could dance, I would dance, if 1 could sing, -1: would sing.-^ - I can shout. So I shout, Halle luiah, suspecting better times a head. I do, for the troubles of the Left, inevitably, are the op portunities of the Right. Thai is a maxim you can be lieve.
