Mercedes Harding. summed the passage of the bill most appropriately: We are convinced that a fair trial for the measure, so overwhelmingly approved by both houses of the legislature, will soon eliminate the conditions that made it necessary. On the one hand, it will demonstrate that the proprietors who have discriminated have nothing to lose but their prejudices. On the other, it will remove the basic reasons for minority resentment in which lie the seeds of ill will and violence. Indeed such action coming from a state governing body gives the minority the spiritual guidance needed. It swells their pride in the democratic process of government and gives them the feeling that progress is being made to eliminate a "problem" that had no business in our society in the first place. Such actions le~sen racial tension nationwide. It is in this type of state legislation that many of America's citizens pin their hopes for solution of a stigma that hurts so deeply that only the offended can fully realize the injustice done. Oregon is definitely moving ahead in its sincere attempt to rectify a wrong in our society. The citizens of this state are in order when they bless the legislators and the organizations that worked so fervently to see the civil rights measure passed.

Williams MU 7552 The Braves won the game in the first inning when Bill Bruton, leading off and playing center field, opened with a single and promptly stole second base. He later scored on a single. Bruton is rated the fastest man in baseball today.

Union xu 3498 JOHNNY'S Paint and Wallpaper STORE the Braves to their Toledo farm club. Jim Pendleton, who was acquired from the Brooklyn Dodgers is being used as utility man and a very valuable one, because he can play in the outfield as well as the infield. Another rookie who made major league appearance is Jim (Junior) Gilliam the much publicized second baseman of the Dodgers. The Dodgers' brass hats believe thai he will be able to hit enough to stick. The number two team of the American league, the Cleveland Indians, who were picked to finish behind the world champion New York Yankees, have sprouted out with 16 home runs in five days. Leading the home rl'n brigade is Harry Simpson and .Tim Lemon with six apiece. Luke Easter had three thus far in spring training.

Milt Campbell, the Olympic star, will enroll at Indiana university this fall. Clarence Johnson. 24, leading welterweight contender, was charged with unlawful use of narcotics. Ike Jones, offensive end and halfback, signed with the Green Bay Packers. It is interesting to note that the Chicago Cubs let Junior Gilliam go and that's how Brooklyn got him. The opinion is that the Cubs do not want any Negro players at Wrigley field. Some of the fans in Chicago let it be known that Gene Baker is a better player than Roy Smalley. Manager Phil Cavaretta claims that Smalley is the best shortstop he has, and hopes to play him. The reason for that is they let Baker go for more seasoning. Baker has hit an average of .280 for three seasons while Roy had an average of .222. Dave Hoskins, ex-Texas leaguer, whipped up enough breeze among rival bats that manager AI Lopez wants to see more of him in action. He is a definite threat as a hitter along with Bob Lemon, Early Wynn and Mike Garcia. His base running is also outstanding. Since the deal for Jackie Jensen for Larry Doby was squashed, the talk is that Simpson may be traded for the ex-Yank. Minnie Minoso, who we haven't heard much about in spring training, is being used in the cleanup spot .for the Chicago White Sox. Minoso seemed to be showing signs of staleness because of playing winter ball in Cuba. The Cuban comet, which he is known for in Chicago, said that he will be okay when the team goes North. He had been bothered with a sore arm. Monte Irvin, who was plagued with an injury last season, has recovered and is expected to give opposing pitchers a lot of worry. Monte will be back in the cleanup slot for manager Leo Durocher. Although he wears a brace on his instep he is in good condition. Hank Thompson, who apparently lost his job at third base, has been pounding the ball hard and fielding 100 per cent better. Caley Cook, the Lewis and' Clark fine athlete, was named captain of the track team. Arlhur A.
