Wilda Royall is the accompan-

Mr. Rossell, who teaches mus-

soprano pupils to sing colorra-

a child. For at the age of eleven
he was giving public concerts
with a voice which Ignacio del
Castila, accompanist to the late
Luisa Tettrazini and conductor
of the National Opera in Mex-
ico City, said was three tones
higher than any human voice
that he had ever heard.

While his voice was changing
Mrs. Rossell studied piano,

sung in concerts and operatic

crucial “solo hop” with flying

In order to solo a student
must have had at least eight
hours of flight instruction given
in the air, must have proved a
good enough dural-pilot for his
instructor to send him into the
air on his own, and must have
enough self-confidence and
courage to make the venutre

if the student has not soloed by
the time he has received a total
of ten hours of flight instruc-
tion he is automatically “wash-
out”. .

Failure At The Opportune Moment

From the April 1941 Issue of Nation’s Business

Education is a necessary and a fine thing and that often goes |

also for the brashness of youth. But in combination they some-
times yield results that are not so good.

So it was with the young technical graduate who had been
doing a lot of reading about tool control. When a manufacurer
employed him to help solve a problem of excess breakage of tools |
he set to work with a bushel of enthusiasm. At the end of a week |
he told his employer he thought he would have the answer by Mon-|
day.

They did! Monday morning the machines couldn’t be started
because there was ru rywhere. Every one of them and every
tool in the shop had been literally sterilized. The young man had |
discovered that when tools were returned to the stock room they |
were oiled and that parts of the machines were thoroughly greased |

 

Watching The World

The free peoples of Yugoslavia had mightily hoped that this
time Hitler would be stopped by the rugged terrain of Yugoslavia
and Greece. But against the onrushing Germans the mountains
of the Balkans apparently proved as ineffectual as the mud in

Poland, the flooded areas of the Netherlands and the Maginot
Line of France. The rays of hope for an Allied success seem to
be fading as the British retreat from Yugoslavia as they retreated |
earlier in the war from Dunkeque. A German victory there would
not be decisive in the larger struggle with Britian though. Only a
knockout in the Battles of Britian can give Hitler what he really
wants.

We in America are beginning to realize the seriousness of
the situation and our entrance into the conflict is being more talk-
ed about every day. Our army is being geared up to match any
foreign opposition. There are more than a million men under arms
and under present draft laws this number will be increased by
third by the end of the summer. No one knows if and when we
will enter the conflict but the public opinion is that it wont be long. |
Great Britian is making her stand for the cause of Democracy
against ruthless dictators, and it is the obligation of all Democratic |
nations to help her in every way possible, even by furnishing man-|
power if necessary. |

German-occupied Rumania was dangerously near a new out-}
break of civil strife and a strongly-worded patriotic message by}
Rumanian Premier Antonescu to his pepole indicated a clean}

< with the Axis. He said that the Rumanian army was ready

fight and that it is the holy duty of the army to wipe out the}
shameful blot of 1940. If the Premier has really broken with the}
Axis, he is running the risk of being crushed between the powerful ,
Iron Guard and the Axis powers. i

In the United States the new Labor Mediation Board seems!
to have its defects despite the optimistic opinion of the general |
public. Its members look upon it as a leisurely part-time affair}
and they scattered to their homes after their t meeting, plan-|

it seemed, to operate on a cummuting basis. Chairman Dyk-|

a quickly pointed out that the board could do nothing in the

> of a rising tide of strikes until disputes had been certified to/
t by the Department of Labor. Labor Secretary Perkins was |
able to certify disputes to the Board with admitting by impli
tions that her Conciliation Service had failed. If she delayed inj
certifying disputes, she exposed herself to the charge of hindering |
the defense effort. Miss Perkins in spite of all her efforts has |

Boquets Tossed To Democratic Club |

Last quarter Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jr., along with the two |
national chairmen of ¥ s, congratulated the Young |
Democratic Club of E rolina Teachers College for the splen-
did work that it was doing. This week Fred Edney of the Univers- |
ity of North Carolina, chairman of the College District, congratu- |
lated the club for being the largest and one of the most active col-
lege or university organizations of Young Democrats in North
Carolina. The club is the youngest in the State, but has made a
record for the other schools to shoot at.

Next Saturday night the club will climax its year of prog
with a Founder’s Day Dinner, to be addressed by Lieutenant Go
ernor Reginald L. Harris and Congressman Herbert C. Bonner. |
Other dignitaries also will be in attendance. This is the first time |
in the history of the school that there has been such an outstand-
ing represe:
the campus.

The college is turning out voters each year and unless they [
acquire an interest in the functions of government, they are going
to be dormant in efforts to mould the destiny of the nation. If the
organization does nothing more than encourage its members to

vote intelligently, then that is a worthwhile achievement within
itself.

| ‘Uncle John’ |

by James Whitfield

“Uncle John’, a child of
slavery, is one of the city’s most
jovial inhabitants. In his youth
he apparently was robust. To-
day, in his early nineties, he’s
lean and lanky, and the wrinkles
of his skin fold over each other
like dough squeezed in the hand
of a baker. His kinky and one-
time black hair has changed to
a tuft of white and his head,
shaped like a watermelon that
is large on one end and small on
the other, is like a snow-capped
piece of coal. His bushy mus-
tache overlaps his upper lip
from one end to the other.

“Uncle John” chews tobacco
and when his mouth is filled
with saliva and juice, he spits
through the crevices of his worn
and stained teeth, and smears
the nearest tree or fence post

a|With the rich brown substance.

Age has bent his spine and he
hobbles around town with the
aid of a broom handle. Rheu-
matic pains cause him to walk
slowly and sometimes they be-
come so severe he is forced to
anchor himself to a_ rocking
chair in his bleak shack.
Through the years “Uncle
John” has acquired a_ wide
circle of friends among the
white folks. He remembers
faces, but a lapse of memory
makes it hard for him to recall
names. When he meets someone
he knows, though, his face be-
comes alive with a broad smile.
All the children in the neighbor-
hood of his life-long employer
regard him as one of their best
friends. He has a deep love and
admiration for children and en-
oys holding them on his bony
nee, telling them stories of his
early boyhood on a traditional

Southern plantation. |

fervent prayers, as we were snatched from a stormy sea
to probable safety. Finally the storm began to lift, the skix
lighter, and we were able to examine our haven, a lon¢ ly
that appeared to be many miles from nowhere.

The two members of the crew who had been injured s
lost consciousness almost simultaneously. We were una

story behind the production was significant. In this land of plenty, |
where we are privileged to enjoy rights not to be found in other!
sections of the universe, often we are inclined to forget Jesus and
his teachings. We take too much for granted. Sometimes a person |
is ridiculed and scorned because of his belief in Christ.

When we study the European picture we see the fruits of |
Satan’s orchard. Thousands of young men are being slaughtered
for the interests of a leader who set himself up as their God. They
died valiantly in his own “big hell on earth.”

Whether you believe in Christ or whether you do not is your
own business. We do.

Lack Of Transporation Proves To Be A Handicap

We're not tooting the horn of an automotive agency, but we
are convinced that the college needs a station wagon or bus that |
would be available to students who represent the college at other
educational institutions from time to time.

Each quarter some group of students remark, “We can’t at-
tend that convention or conference as we don’t have any -way of
getting there.” This held true this week when the Young Women’s
Christian Association had to cancel a trip to Greensboro.

__ Many will contend that if an organization doesn’t have travel-
ling expenses, it has no business attending functions at other
schools. But it must be remembered that no student organization
on the campus was established for making money and most of
them have to eke out their existence with the aid of the student
fund. And at this season of the year the fund usually is exhausted.

When a student or group of students can represent the col-
lege at another school it promotes good will, and this is a splendid
trait to exist between all schools. Then, too, the material advan-
tages will prove exceedingly valuable to other members of the
student body.

How the money would be raised for the bus or station wagon
is.left to the students and administrators themselves. But there’s

Campus Leaders Need Your Cooperation

With the major campus officers already elected they now are
ready to launch their activities for the ensuing year, but they can-
not play a Jone hand. They must have the cooperation of the stu-
dent body in general if they are to realize successful administra-
tion. Regardless of the capabilities of a leader he is another hope-
less case if he does not have the confidence and support of those
whom he is leading. Not only do we owe it to these leaders to co-
operate, but we also owe it to ourselves.

And while putting in a word for the new leaders, it is fitting
at this time to tell the old ones that they did a good job in the year
that is slowly drawing to a close. No leader who attains anything
worthwhile is going to meet with the approval of everyone con-
cerned. But to those who are turning their gavel over a successor,
