WASHINGTON, D. C. Retir
ing Howard University President
Mordecai W. Johnson last week de
scribed incoming President James
Madison Nabrit, Jr, as a man with
an “unusually able mind" who will
inaugurate a program of develop
ment which will bring about great
er progress in the next 20 years
that the University has experienc
ed since its founding 93 years ago.
Dr. Johnson’s remarks came
during an Informal address to
some 500 members of the How
ard community who gathered
to pay tribute to the 70-year
old educator on his last day as
president of the University. He
had headed the Washington. D.
C. school for 34 years. Dr. Na
hrit, a member of the Howard
faculty since 1936 and dean of
the School of Law for the past
two years, assumed the presi
dency of the nation's largest
predominantly Negro institu-

Dr. Johnson, who has known the
now president since the latter's
student days at Morehouse College,
appointed Dr Nabrit to the law
faculty, and later to such posts as
executive secretary to the presi
dent. secretary of the University,
director of public relations and
law school dean.

WILLIAMSTON Can a boy
with little experience make money
raising chickens? Take a look at
the record of Ray Rogers of Route
2, a member of the 1959 Martin
County Poultry Chain.
Ray and his parents, the Arthur
Rogers, talked over the poultry
project with R. McK. Edwards. Ne
gro county agent in Martin. They
agreed that, since they had little
experience raising chickens, they
would follow Edwards’ instruc
tions
"In January of '59, Ray and
his father built a 10-by-12-foot
brooder house,” says Edwards.
"On March 13, Ray got 106
Rhode Island Red chicks
through the Poultry Chain.”
By the end of eight weeks, Ray
had lost only eight chicks. He se
parated the cockerels from the pul
lets, and the pullets started laying

know' that it is His will that all

pray, "Thy will be done, on earth,
as it is in heaven,” let us so live to
reflect that will, and it will be
done, it will be done in Raleigh
North Carolina.
EXPERIENCE
We hear so much talk about ex
perience, we thought it might not
be anus to quote w’hai Henry
James had to say about it. "The
power to guess the unseen from
the seen, to trace the implications
of things, to judge the whole piece
of the pattern, the condition of
feeling life in general as complete

while and then try to digest it. w°

BEATING THE GUN
BY BILL BROWER
This time next week the returns
wdll be in on the two major league
all-star ganes. This is the first year
that two all-star contests have
been played in the same week Last
year, two games w-ere held for the
first time, but they were staged
weeks apart.
As this is bring written, the fin
al selections for American and Na
tional League representatives have
not been made. But it is certain
that tan representatives will be
plentiful again this year when the
teams take the field, first in Mu
nicipal Stadium in Kansas City and
then in Yankee Stadium in New
York City.
Such celebrated performers
as Willie Mays. Ernie Banks,
Hank Aaron and Minnie Minoso
are almost certain to he in the
lineups. Newcomers this year
probably will include Yada
Pinson, Roberto Clemente, Al
Smith and Biil White. Sam
Jones might be a pitching
choice.
For several years, the NL out
field has been comprised of tan
stars This should be the case this
season. Mays is a cinch. The San
Francisco star is leading the lea
gue in hitting, among the RBI pace
setters and has lost none of his
sheen as a brilliant defensive per
former.
He might be flanked by Aaron
and Pinson or Aaron and Clemen
te or a combination of the two. Aa
ron, the Milwaukee rightfielder
and NL batting champion last sea
son, is having, percentage-wise, a
subpar Aaron season. Rut he still
is a dangerous man at the plate,
totting his share of home runs and
RBIs.
Pinson, brilliant center fielder
for Cincinnati, is .skillful defen
sively and a slashing hitter
Clemente, strong at the plate
this season, has been largely
responsible for the success of
the Pittsburgh Pirates. He has
been leading the club in RBIs
and early in the season pared
it at bat. He was stil! hitting
around .330 last week.
White, who has been hitting well
'nr St. Louis, rates a vote at first
base. His chief competition comes
:om Orlando Ccpeda, another San
Francisco star, who swings the
more potent bat Ccpeda shared
irst base duties last year with
Frankie Robinson, Cincy’s star who
is having a disappointing year.
In the NL. others who might
■ate a vote include Charley Neal,
I,os Angeles, at second base, and
Willie Kirkland, who is having his
best season at bat for the Giants.
Teammate Jones, with a 9-7 rec
ord, is one of the best pitchers in
either league despite recent show -
ings.
