CYO Bowlers Urge Bowling
ingress io Lift Race Ban
BROOKLYN, N. Y.— (ANP)—A
resolution adopted by the Catho
lic Youth organization’s 220 five
man bowling teams urged the
American Bowling congress last
week to delete the clause in its
constitution limiting membership
to “white” males
The resolution was submitted to
the ABC’s Metropolitan division
by the Rev. Charles T. Carow, a
member of the CYO executive
committe and delegate of the
Brooklyn CYO Bowling league, to
be forwarded to the congress’ na
tional office for consideration at
next spring’s ABC convention.
The ABC’s ban violates the
basic law of the Catholic church,
Declaration of Independence, the
constitution of the United States,
the New York State constitution,
the New York State law against
discrimination and the civil rights
law of New York, the resolution
pointed out.
“That the constitution, rules,
regulations and specifications of
the American Bowling congress
and its affiliated state and city
bowling associations be amended
so that any and all provisions
contained therein restricting
membership on their bowling
teams to ‘white’ males and ex
cluding colored males therefrom
be eliminated,” the resolution
urged, “and in their place be sub
stituted a provision opening mem
bership to all males regardless of
their race, creed, color or national
origin, and that said amendment
shall become effective immediate
ly upon its adoption."
Representatives of the 220
Catholic bowling teams of the
CYO Bowling league brought to
the recent executive meeting “the
firm conviction that the teachings
of the Catholic church imposed an
obligation upon them to take
action in support of their fellow
men, regardless of race, color or
creed.”
Nation-wide publicity was giv
en to the ABC ban against Negro
bowlers earlier this year during
the national tournament here.

RHYTHM BAND
The University Y.W.C.A. girls,
who are instructing the Rhythm
Band have started rehearsals for
theiF participation in the Annual
Urban League Christmas Party.
This Ijand of youngsters, all of
whom are under six or seven
years of age, meet regularly each
Saturday morning at 10:00 a.m.
and are given instruction in
rhythm, harmony and the rudi
ments of music. All children in
these ages may enroll. However,
we are suggesting that mothers
attend occasionally to assist in
the disciplinary problems that
are occasioned by the grouping of
a large number of youngsters of
this age in one activity.
A World of Books
By Mrs. Edith Hickman
Children who learn to under
stand and love animals are seldom
unkind to people. Old favorites
among animal stories are the
Green Forest Series. ^
“Blacky, the Crow”
“Lightfoot, the Deer”
“Whitefoot, the woodmovse”
“Buster Bear Twins”
These stores were written by
Thorton W. Burgess, and are only
65 cents apiece.
The “Mother West Wind” Ser
ies are nature studies, mosity
about animals and they are not
expensive either.
Besides the older standbys,
there are some newer ones that
children will like. Here are a few
stories of animals that will be of
interest to little children.
“Copy Kitten”— a gay story of
a kitten who didn’t want to look
like a kitten.
“Bambi”— story of a deer, illus
trated by Walt Disney.
“Mittens”— will charm both
“Muffin” story of an all black
cat with a white vest.
“How Sandy Squirrel Got His
Tail” —a sleepy time story.
“Cancan” story of a real little
goat.
“The Story of Babar” will make
you love elephants.
Then there are four Kipling
“Just So Stories” at 50c each:
“The Elephant’s Child”
“How the Rhinoceros Qot His
Skin” I
“How the Camel Got His
Hump”
“How the Leopard Got His
Spots”
Children of a certain age are
busy learning about the alphabet.
The “ABC Play Book” makes
alphabet lessons a pleasing game.
The “All About Story Book”
has one dozen entertaining stories
with pleasing pictures. The
stories range from “Little Red
Riding Hood” to “The Little Red
Hen.” All are children’s favor
ites. If your child is saying “Give
Me a Picture Book” or “Read Me
a Story,” both can be done with
this one book. A child’s fancies
need to be delighted. His imagi
nation needs to be stimulated and
“The All About Story Book” will
do these very things.
There are so many beautiful
books, both old and new favorites
with so many good stories and so
many pictures with bright full
colors. We still insist that one
must see these many books, look
at them carefully and take time
to choose. There is something
for every child among the hun
dreds of children’s books.
