Arizona Votes for
Jimcrow Schools
PHOENIX—(ANP) — Citizens
of the state of Arizona solidly
voted against repeal of laws re
quiring segregated schools for Ne
groes in the state, but did elect
two Negroes to the state legisla
ture.
In an intensive vote on a meas
ure prohibiting jim crow in pub
lic schools because of race, re
ligion, or national origin, Arizona
refused to pass it by a 2 to 1 mar
gin.
Not only are -Negroes segre
gated in many parts of this state,
but Spanish-Americans also are
jimcrowed. In many communities
in the state the law is disre
garded, but in Phoenix is main
tained the only segregated senior
high school in the state.

Memory Selection: God is a
Spirit; and they that worship Him

truth. John 4:24.
Present Day Application
By Frederick D. Jordan
Los Angeles, California
Today’s lesson brings to our
attention still another important
way of growing as a Christian.
Fellowship with other Christians
in Worshipping God is a source of
spiritual strength. Christians ought
to attend public worship services
unless they are physically unable
to do so, or are prevented by cir
cumstances beyond their control.
A real love for God will create a
love for His House. It will create
a longing for a place of worship
with others who know the Lord.
Private devotions and radio ser
mons cannot ever take the place
of the Christian fellowship that is
a large factor in making worship
worth while. Public worship is a
great privilege in spite of the way
some people ignore it. The pattern
of early Christian worship con
tained much more lay participa
tion than we have now. There
must be something more than for
mal routine services in our
churches if our members are to be
kept spiritually alive. Laymen
should take advantage of every
opportunity afforded for prayer
and testimony. The value of wor
ship to a Christian depends upon
his own spiritual preparation and
attitude of mind. His motive for
attending church as well as the
extent of his participation in the
service will determine the inspira
tion and profit that he receives.
Texas and Maryland
Decisions Stand
Thurgood Marshall, NAACP
special counsel, expressed grati
fication that the United States
Supreme Court denied to the Uni
versity of Maryland a review of
a Maryland Court of Appeals de
cision ordering the admission of
Miss Esther McCready to the uni
versity’s nursing school, and. re
fused to the State of Texas a re
hearing of the case of Heman
Marion Sweatt, whose admission
to the University of Texas Law
school was ordered by the high
tribunal last June. Miss Mc
Cready and Mr. Sweatt have
been attending classes at these
respective universities.
The total number of southern
states which have relaxed the
ban on Negro students in their
state-supported universities di
rectly or indirectly as a result of
NAACP action now stands at
eleven. Negroes are attending
classes at the Universities of
Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Vir
ginia, Missouri, Kentucky, Mary
land and Delaware. Louisiana
State University was ordered to
admit Negroes this week, and the
attorney general of Tennessee has
advised officials of the University
of Tennessee that that institution
can no longer deny admission to
qualified students because of
race.

Last week-end found the cur
tain being rung down on many of
the prep gridirons. The boys have
played well. They have thrilled
many with the most razzle dazzle
season yet to be seen anywhere.
The Bluebirds of Cathedral
high finished by whipping Law
rence to the tune of 34 to 25 with
an impressive season of 7 wins,
1 loss.
Northeast journeyed to Omaha
to give the fans a look at a state
champion. While there they took
time out to wallop Creighton Prep
to the tune of 38 to 6. They, too,
closed their season with a clean
slate.
Lincoln high journeyed to
Grand Island to meet a stubborn
gang and had to battle all the way
to earn a tie at 14-all.
College View was not fortunate
as they ran into a rough and ready
Ashland crew and were dumped
14-12.
Meanwhile out at Memorial
itadium Saturday afternoon,
Coach Bill Glassford’s razzle daz
zle Huskers, led by ramblin’ Rob
ert Reynolds, bounding Nick Ad
duci, will-o-the-wisp Bloom
and flinging Fran Nagle, came to
life and exploded in the second
half to stun an alert K-State that
had stolen the show in the first
half. With K-State there was still
Robinson doing a yeoman’s job at
center, the only Negro first
stringer in the Big Seven. If you
are looking for thrills, follow the
Huskers.

Over in Iowa Johnny Bright of
Drake University scored four
touchdowns to whip Iowa State
College, a member of the Big
Seven Conference. In doing so he
set a new national record for net
yardage gained by an individual,
traveling some 2,400 yards this
season against 2,187 yards set by
Frankie Sinkwich of Georgia. The
NS A Has Negro Secretary
MADISON Wis. (ANP). The
I National Student association will
j have a Negro girl as executive
secretary in 1951 when new of
ficers take over. She is Miss
Shirley Neizer of Simmons col
lege in Massachusetts.
Negro flash passed and ran his
team to all its scores.
Jethroe Voted
Rookie of the Year
NEW YORK. (ANP). Sam Jeth
roe, speedy centerfielder of the
Boston Braves, was voted by the
Baseball Writers association as the
National league’s rookie of the
year.
Purchased by the Brave, from
the Brooklyn Dodgers for more
than $100,000, Jethroe started out
1 poorly in spring training but ;m
proved as the season advanced.
He led the league in stolen bases
with 35, more than twice as many
as the American league leader,
Phil Rizzuto of the New York
Yankees. Jethroe also pounded
out 18 home runs to show unex
pected power at the plate.
Jackie Named Major
All Star 2iul Baseman
, NEW YORK. (ANP). Jackie
! Robinson of the Brooklyn Dodgers
last week was voted by the writers
of the Associated Press to the
Major league all star baseball
team as the all star second base
man.
Ironically enough, two weeks
ago sports writers failed to vote
Jackie the all National league post
at the keystone sack.
Jackie polled 170 votes to only
85 for Eddie Stanky of the New
York Giants, the man who beat
him out in the all league vote.
Catcher Roy Campanella of the
Dodgers lost out in his bid for
all star catcher to Yogi Berra of
the New York Yankees.
Centerfielder Larry Doby of the
Cleveland Indians did a reverse
of Robinson. He ranked fourth in
votes for the all-major league out
field, being beaten out by Joe
DiMaggio of the New York Yan
kees. In a previous vote, Doby
had displaced DiMaggio on the
American league team.
