Dr. Clement Ventures A Prophesy
Dr. Rufus E. Clement, president of the Atlanta University, in
an address before the United Negro College Forum, in New York
this week, ventured that only the top Negro Colleges would survive
should the United States Supreme Court declare racial segregation 
in education unconstitutional.
While the Doctor may be on safe ground in his prophesy,
let it be said here and now that the small colleges, both private
and sectarian have wrought a fine job. Coming upon the scene
when training in liberal education was limited to the few in
favored areas, these small colleges sought to bring the college to
the pupils. Hundreds of young men and women, denied the right
to attend the public provisions made for youths, turned to these
Small and often starving institutions for such training as was
available to them and with measured success.
The churches have done a wonderful job in the field of education. 
In many sections, but for the public spirit of the church in
the field of education, it would have been an impossibility for
many of the young men and women to prepare for the professions
they are now holding down with credit.
Small givers, before the advent of such organized philantrophy 
as the United College Fund, come in for a share of the
praise for the keeping of many small colleges open. All over the
southland there were such institutions, founded by hard working
teachers to look only to charity and the private gifts they were
able to corral, in many cases by outright begging.
A great story of struggle and sacrifice is written across the
southland around the romance of the struggle of the early Negro
youth for education. The small colleges come in just now for a
full portion of their glory.
President Clement was named for a place on the Atlanta
City Board of Education, the first of the race to serve. If his prophesy 
comes true as relates to the survival of the top collages,
let not history and time forget the "bottom colleges."

Expanding Social Security
Secretary Oveta Culp Hobby of the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare recently said the new Administration will
seek to bring 10,500,000 more persons under Social Security next
year. The Secretary called the proposed extension proof that the
Republican Administration is looking after the welfare of "all our
people."
Mrs. Hobby said the proposed expansion would probably
toke in such new groups as self-employed farmers, other farm
workers and domestic workers, doctors, dentists, lawyers, architects, 
accountants and many other professional people.
In addition, many who are under State and local retirements
system on a voluntary basis may be included, and clergymen on
a voluntary basis—may also be included. The Secretary said other 
groups might come under the expanded program also.
Whether Congress will enact the proposed expansion of the
Social Security program is not known, although President Eisenhower 
has already gone on record as in favor of expanded Social
Security coverage. Undoubtedly, Mrs. Hobby's speech indicates
that the decision to propose the expansion is a positive one and
that the outcome depends upon the legislative debate which is
sure to develop in Congress.
No doubt, the result of this effort will have a bearing on the
1954 Congressional elections. The majority opinion at present
seems to be that the Administration will win some expansion of
the program although perhaps not as extensive as Mrs. Hobby
recommends.

Re: Jackie Robinson, Roy Campanella
(From The Louisiana Weekly)
REACTIONS to the currently barnstorming baseball teams in
these parts have provided a most interesting topic of conversation
during the past weeks. The outfits concerned have been the
Jackie Robinson All Stars, an interracial team and the Roy Campanella 
Negro All Stars.
For instance here in New Orleans the Jackie Robinson All
Stars, an interracial outfit, got little or no build up from the sports
columnists in the daily press whereas the Roy Campanella Negro
All Stars got top billing and Roy himself got the rave notices he
has been getting all year as baseball's greatest catcher.
Judging the treatment two baseball's top names got here
from the daily press it was plainly obvious that Campy rates better 
with the local sporting fraternity than Robbie.
And herein lies what the boys 'chew the fat about'. It is their
feeling that Campy is looked upon more favorably because (in
the thinking of the white writers) Campy knows 'his place' better
than Robbie 'knows his place'. Roy is barnstorming in the South
with a Negro outfit which will not cause any controversy or ill
feeling to anybody. This is not the case with Robinson. The
modern pioneer of the Negro in big league baseball is daring
and ever pressing forward to put democracy into action. This
does not set too well with conservative Southern sports writers.
Robbie is not conforming when he heads an interracial outfit and
brings it South. To some, that's like putting salt in a sore wound
despite the fact that interracial teams have been all over the
South for the past several years.
As far as local baseball fans are concerned, they are equally
proud of Robbie and Campy and their respective teams. They
wanted to see both outfits for different reasons.
The only sour note to the Robinson venture was the refusal of
at least four cities, Memphis, Birmingham, Hattiesburg and Natchez, 
to permit the white players to play. The games were played
without them and some observers immediately put Robinson "on
the pan" for not taking a stand and pulling the whole outfit out.
This would have been costly for the Robinson All Stars could have
been sued for breach of contract.
Most observers feel you can't save the race by breaking a
contract. The thing to do now, is don't sign that kind of contract 
which puts you over a barrel. Making democracy look ridiculous 
is a sorry spectacle in which no honest, straight thinking
American wants any part.

Chances For U. S. Sales Tax
President Dwight D. Eisenhower must decide whether he will
recommend a Federal sales tax in the months prior to the second
session of the Eighty-Third Congress. The Treasury Department
has already drawn up a sales tax plan, as well as many other
plans to bring in additional revenue.
The Administration is committed to allowing the excess prof
its tax to expire on January 1st. The Administration is also going
along with a repeal of the 1951 individual income tax increase
amounting to about eleven per cent. If Congress allows the 1951
increases to expire April 1st, as provided by low, the Administra
tion will lose considerable revenue.
It is estimated that the loss from, these three tax sources will

amount to approximately $8,000,000,000. With the Administration 
already facing a deficit for the fiscal year 1954 of from three
to five billion dollars, it is argued by many that new sources of
revenue will have to be found to make up this loss of revenue.
Of course, the debt limit could be raised, but Congress has
shown a hesitancy to increase the $275,000,000,000 debt limit. It
is also expected to exhibit something less than enthusiasm for any
Federa sales tax proposal.
There is no doubt that the solution will be painful to many
whatever it may be. A sales tax is regrettable from many standpoints, 
one of them being the fact that it is levied on such staples
items of necessity as food and clothing. Therefore, for the poor
man, the sales tax costs him just as much on a suit of clothes or a
loaf of bread as it does the richest citizen. On the other hand,
there is no doubt that many citizens in the lower economic brackets 
pay little, if any, taxes.
It is the contention of those who favor a sales lax that this
tax is one of the only means by which the Federal Government can
reach all citizens, thereby receiving contributions from them to aid
in financing record budgets now necessary.
The question will not be answered immediately. Meanwhile
constituents can let thteir congressman know their feelings on the
matter. We cannot predict the outcome of the present studies, but
we can say, with an assurance of accuracy, that a Federal sales tax
is closer to reality in the United States than it has been for some
time.

REVIEWING
THE NEWS
By WILLIAM GORDON
Managing Editor, Atlanta Dally World
I had walked only a few doors away from the store when
someone touched me on the shoulder. "Young man, I believe this
is your change you dropped a few minutes ago."
The person was a middle-aged white woman. She seemed
relieved when I turned, smiled and thanked her politely for what
she had done. Then in broad Southern accent, she told me that
she was in the store when I made a purchase and saw the change
drop from my pocket when I left the store. She smiled and briskly 
walked away, obviously feeling that she had done her good
deed for the day. Likewise, I went about my business feeling that
more friendly people live about us today than we realize.
This single incident, which occurred in a Southern town, made
me dig deeper into situations involving other experiences that
serve to document the friendliness, the sincerity and the genuineness 
of the individual person. And you don't have to leave the
South to find them.
I had walked only about a block when it occurred to me that
many other friendly gestures had been evident, even in my short
life-time. They are numerous.
There was the time when, a colleague and I had automobile
trouble near Texacana, Arkansas. It was midnight and not a
service station or garage could be found open. We looked for
help and was told that the only available person in town was a
white man who ran a small garage. When a friend called him
he got out of bed, walked almost a mile and fixed our car and refused 
to accept pay. We were told later that this was typical of
the man and typical of many of the whites in the town of Texacana, 
Arkansas.
I had walked another block when my thoughts turned to the
time while on a trip through Virginia. It was early Sunday morning. 
I was driving alone. A young white fellow waved me
down. I stopped and picked him up. We talked about almost
everything under the sun and I found him to be most interesting.
But trouble arose again. The car started giving trouble and we
had to stop at almost every other filling station feeding it water
and oil; It finally stopped dead still in the center of the highway.
I felt stranded, without help or money but again something happended. 

This time, the youngster got out in the highway, waved down
some motorist who pushed the car to the nearest service station.
I tried to pay for the services and again it was refused. When the
car was finally repaired, I paid what was equivalent to less than
a fair price.
Again, I went on my way thinking how much good and decency 
are found in people. There was the time when I sat in a crowd
ed club car running between New York and Boston. The man
next to me wanted to say something, but didn't really know how
to get a conversation started. Then it happened.
Someone across from us spilled coffee and part of it ran in
our direction. He quickly grabbed a napkin and began mopping
up the coffee. When he learned that I was from the South, he
began to talk freely about conditions and changing trends. He
apologized for the shortcomings in our social system and began
to ask questions about why he had not met many Negroes in his
life-time.
When I left the club car I was convinced of his sincerity. I
was also convinced that hundreds of people like this man were
praying and waiting to be friendly, especially to the American Negro. 
It also convinced me tha these were the true and real Americans 
who spend little time talking about democracy, but who actually 
accept it as part of their daily lives.
These brief and seemingly small incidents give you the feeling 
that thousands and perhaps millions of Americans are simply
waiting to show their feelings and generosities when the time is
ripe to do so.
More recent, these experiences brought to mind what was
said a few days ago by Roy Wilkins, administrator for the NAACP.
We have allies in more people than we realize, he said. We have
allies in the young whites in colleges and universities over the coun
try We have allies in the teachers and the ministers in the more
enlightened churches. We have allies in the merchants and business 
people. Then most of all, we have allies in the veterans
who know the harships of warfare.
We will always have allies in those people who accept other
fellow Americans on the basis of character and not color, as experiences 
have taught so many of us.

MY WEEKLY
SERMON
REV. BLAIR T. HUNT,
PASTOR
MISSISSIPPI BLVD. CHRISTIAN
CHURCH, MEMPHIS

John, the beloved is writing a
letter to the lady he loves. The
lady he loves is the church.
The theme of the letter is love.
It is indeed a love letter. The lady
he loves is thechurch.
To us christians the church is
the lady we love. Yet, sometimes
some of us are not true to the lady
we love.
Years ago there was a very popular 
song, titled "Paradise Alley."

Some of the words were these:
"Every Sunday down to her home
we go.. All the boys and all the
girls love her so... She is the sunshine 
of Paradise Alley."
Do we go to see the lady we love
every Sunday? No... we are so often
A. W. O. L. You go to see the
girl you love every Sunday. Then
go and see the lady you love at least
each Sunday... the church
To the girl you love you bring
love gifts. Why not bring gifts to
the lady you love, the church?
Let us write a letter to the lady

we love as the beloved Apostle John
wrote a letter to the lady he loved.
Let us tell her, the church, how
much we love her.. that we will
never forsake her.. that we will
hold her forever in sickness and in
health. We will be true to the lady
we love, the church.
We love this lady, the church, because 
she is so beautiful, so dear, so
sweet. She has done a thousand
big things for us, and a million little 
things for us.
We will let no one speak ill of the
lady we love. You cannot speak ill
of the church in my presence because 
she is the lady I love.
I fell in love with this lady, the
church, at first sight. As a little
brown-skinned lad I was carried to
her. Then I loved her. I loved
her movement. It was a movement
toward heaven. I learned to love
her ministers. They were my heroes, 
showing people the way of
salvation. They seemed to have a
passion for Jesus Christ. I saw
them ministering in the sick room
in the death chamber. I love her
ministers.
I loved her charming music. Her
grand singing of the grand, old
hymns brought me so near to Jesus. 
Truly she is the lady I love.
I love this lady because she is
perfumed with fragrant prayers.
She is always in tune and in touch
with God. She is the lady I love.
She is not perfect, because she is
made up of imperfect people. But
they are struggling toward the truth
and the light. She is a road, a road
to heaven. And, like other roads
this road sometimes needs mending, 
repairing, yet I love her.
I love this lady, the church, because 
Christ loved her and gave His
life for her (Ephesians 5:25). Out
of Christ's death and resurrection
this lady was born.
The lady I love is more precious
than rubles. "She stretches out her
hand to feed the poor."
Can you blame me for loving
her?
I love her and,
"For her my tears shall fall
For her my prayers ascend.
To her my cares and toils be
given.
Till toils and cares shall end."

MEMPHIS—The City of Memphis has offered land for use as
a driving range for persons learning to drive automobiles. The
Junior Chamber of Commerce had sponsored the Auto Driving
Range. Even appropriated money for the project Now the
Memphis Park Commission passed a resolution granting use of a
parcel of land between Central and Southern, east of the Fairgrounds. 

JACKSON, Miss. — A plan to
boost taxes on beer and light wines
in Mississippi expected to have
rough going in the state legislature. 

A member of the house ways and
means committee says the measure
may not even come out of committee. 

The present tax is four cents a
bottle and a bill was introduced to
boost that levy to six cents a bottle. 

LOUISIANA — The first Negro
undergraduate student in Louisiana
history has carried his fight to stay
in the school to the U. S. Supreme
Court.
Attorneys for the student, A. P.
Tureaud say they have appealed
their case to the high court. Tureaud's 
attorneys ask the high court
to reverse a Federal Appeals Court
ruling that Federal District Judge
J. S. Wright exceed his authority
by ordering the University to admit
the 17 year old Negro.
Tureaud is continuing at LSU as
a student pending the outcome of
the newest legal maneuver, despite
the fact that Thursday was the effective 
date of the appeal court's
ruling.
JACKSON, Miss. — The proposed
educational program to equalize
white and Negro schools in Missippi 
has brought back the question of
legalizing liquor.
Mississippi lawmakers Happy Applebaum 
of Yazoo County plans to
sponsor a bill to legalize liquor to
determine as he puts it just how
since other lawmakers are about
financing the proposed school equalization 
program.
Applebaum decided on the liquor
bill after word got around that lawmakers 
were balking on increasing

taxes to pay for the educational
program. Governor Hugh White
had said that the sweeping educational 
program for whites and Negroes 
would require new taxes.
Applebaum said his measure to
egalize liquor, long a thorn in the
side of dry Mississippi is being readed 
for presentation to the special
session of the legislature
Said Applebaum, "I want to find
out just how sincere they (the lawmakers) 
are in wanting to finance
this (education) program.
Voters in Mississippi not long ago
turned down a proposal to legalize
liquor although the state still collects 
a black market tax in liquor
sales in the state.
JACKSON, Miss. — A policeman
ended the wild flight of a man by
shooting him in each leg. The officer 
had chased the Negro across a
college golf course, wrestled with
him in a creek before the shooting.
Patrolman F. L. Freeman said he
finally captured 45 year old Frank
Read of Meridian after the dash
across the Millisaps College Golf
Course. That was after the Negro
broke away while they wrestled in
a stream.
Police said Read broke into the
Canton, Mississippi bank but stole
nothing, then stole a car headed for
Jackson and was pursued by a patrol 
car until the Negro decided to
try his footwork across the creek
and golf course.
LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Suit for
divorce and restraint against his
"ever returning" to his family's
home, were sought in Superior
Court this week against newspaperman 
John R. Williams, who was
committed several months ago to
Camarillo State Hospital for the
Insane.
Charging the hospitalized newspaperman 
with being extremely
cruel and abusive, and with having
"hallucinations that people are trying 
to injure him," Mrs. Doris Williams, 
through her attorney, Crispur 
A. Wright alleged that Williams, 
has become so violent on occasion 
that she was in great fear of
injury."
The suit stated that the couple
married in Toledo in 1940 and separated 
this year and said that there
is one child. Gwendolyn 12, but no
community property.
Mr. Williams asked custody of
the child and support for her and
asked that her husband be restained
from annoying, molesting or harming 
her or ever returning to the
residence of the plaintiff."
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — The voters 
of Little Rock repudiated the
old party line, which was the major
issue in the campaign to elect a
mayor for the city and gave the
incumbent mayor, Pratt Remmel an
overwhelming majority vote Tuesday 
over his opponent, Aubery Kerr,
Mr. Kerr, a Democrat and was
running for election on the Democritic 
ticket, while Mayor Remmel
is traditionally a Republican, made
his race without any party affiliation. 
He ran on his record and was
able to gather approximate 10,000
votes of the approximately 17,000
votes polled by Little Rock voters.

JACKSON, Miss. — The proposed
educational program to equalize
white and Negro schools in Missippi 
has brought back the question of
legalizing liquor.
Mississippi lawmakers Happy Applebaum 
of Yazoo County plans to
sponsor a bill to legalize liquor to
determine as he puts it just how
since other lawmakers are about
financing the proposed school equalization 
program.
Applebaum decided on the liquor
bill after word got around that lawmakers 
were balking on increasing

taxes to pay for the educational
program. Governor Hugh White
had said that the sweeping educational 
program for whites and Negroes 
would require new taxes.
Applebaum said his measure to
egalize liquor, long a thorn in the
side of dry Mississippi is being readed 
for presentation to the special
session of the legislature
Said Applebaum, "I want to find
out just how sincere they (the lawmakers) 
are in wanting to finance
this (education) program.
Voters in Mississippi not long ago
turned down a proposal to legalize
liquor although the state still collects 
a black market tax in liquor
sales in the state.
JACKSON, Miss. — A policeman
ended the wild flight of a man by
shooting him in each leg. The officer

him in a creek before the shooting.
Patrolman F. L. Freeman said he
finally captured 45 year old Frank
Read of Meridian after the dash
across the Millisaps College Golf
Course. That was after the Negro
broke away while they wrestled in
a stream.
Police said Read broke into the
Canton, Mississippi bank but stole
nothing, then stole a car headed for
Jackson and was pursued by a patrol 
car until the Negro decided to
try his footwork across the creek
and golf course.

divorce and restraint against his

Insane.
Charging the hospitalized newspaperman 
with being extremely
cruel and abusive, and with having

to injure him," Mrs. Doris Williams, 
through her attorney, Crispur 
A. Wright alleged that Williams, 
has become so violent on occasion 
that she was in great fear of
injury."
The suit stated that the couple
married in Toledo in 1940 and separated 
this year and said that there
is one child. Gwendolyn 12, but no
community property.
Mr. Williams asked custody of
the child and support for her and
asked that her husband be restained
from annoying, molesting or harming

JACKSON, Miss. — A plan to
boost taxes on beer and light wines
in Mississippi expected to have
rough going in the state legislature. 

A member of the house ways and
means committee says the measure
may not even come out of committee. 

The present tax is four cents a
bottle and a bill was introduced to
boost that levy to six cents a bottle. 

LOUISIANA — The first Negro
undergraduate student in Louisiana
history has carried his fight to stay
in the school to the U. S. Supreme
Court.
Attorneys for the student, A. P.
Tureaud say they have appealed
their case to the high court. Tureaud's 
attorneys ask the high court
to reverse a Federal Appeals Court
ruling that Federal District Judge
J. S. Wright exceed his authority
by ordering the University to admit
the 17 year old Negro.
Tureaud is continuing at LSU as
a student pending the outcome of
the newest legal maneuver, despite
the fact that Thursday was the effective 
date of the appeal court's
ruling.
JACKSON, Miss. — The proposed
educational program to equalize
white and Negro schools in Missippi 
has brought back the question of
legalizing liquor.
Mississippi lawmakers Happy Applebaum 
of Yazoo County plans to
sponsor a bill to legalize liquor to
determine as he puts it just how
since other lawmakers are about
financing the proposed school equalization 
program.
Applebaum decided on the liquor
bill after word got around that lawmakers 
were balking on increasing

taxes to pay for the educational
program. Governor Hugh White
had said that the sweeping educational 
program for whites and Negroes 
would require new taxes.
Applebaum said his measure to
egalize liquor, long a thorn in the
side of dry Mississippi is being readed 
for presentation to the special
session of the legislature
Said Applebaum, "I want to find
out just how sincere they (the lawmakers) 
are in wanting to finance
this (education) program.
Voters in Mississippi not long ago
turned down a proposal to legalize
liquor although the state still collects 
a black market tax in liquor
sales in the state.
JACKSON, Miss. — A policeman
ended the wild flight of a man by
shooting him in each leg. The officer 
had chased the Negro across a
college golf course, wrestled with
him in a creek before the shooting.
Patrolman F. L. Freeman said he
finally captured 45 year old Frank
Read of Meridian after the dash
across the Millisaps College Golf
Course. That was after the Negro
broke away while they wrestled in
a stream.
Police said Read broke into the
Canton, Mississippi bank but stole
nothing, then stole a car headed for
Jackson and was pursued by a patrol 
car until the Negro decided to
try his footwork across the creek
and golf course.
LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Suit for
divorce and restraint against his
"ever returning" to his family's
home, were sought in Superior
Court this week against newspaperman 
John R. Williams, who was
committed several months ago to
Camarillo State Hospital for the
Insane.
Charging the hospitalized newspaperman 
with being extremely
cruel and abusive, and with having
"hallucinations that people are trying 
to injure him," Mrs. Doris Williams, 
through her attorney, Crispur 
A. Wright alleged that Williams, 
has become so violent on occasion 
that she was in great fear of
injury."
The suit stated that the couple
married in Toledo in 1940 and separated 
this year and said that there
is one child. Gwendolyn 12, but no
community property.
Mr. Williams asked custody of
the child and support for her and
asked that her husband be restained
from annoying, molesting or harming 
her or ever returning to the
residence of the plaintiff."
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — The voters 
of Little Rock repudiated the
old party line, which was the major
issue in the campaign to elect a
mayor for the city and gave the
incumbent mayor, Pratt Remmel an
overwhelming majority vote Tuesday 
over his opponent, Aubery Kerr,
Mr. Kerr, a Democrat and was
running for election on the Democritic 
ticket, while Mayor Remmel
is traditionally a Republican, made
his race without any party affiliation. 
He ran on his record and was
able to gather approximate 10,000
votes of the approximately 17,000
votes polled by Little Rock voters.
JACKSON, Miss - Governor
Hugh White and two Mississippi
Negro leaders say a resolution on
The school program issued by a NeGro 
group isn't representative of
Most of the state's Negro citizens
The resolution endorsed the proposed 
school equalization plan, but
only if the Supreme Court doesn't
rule against segregation. White
says the statement doesn't represent
the majority of Negroes in the state
and J. B. Boyd head of the Negro 
Teachers Association and H.
H. Humes, Negro Baptist leader,
Agree.

The people of Memphis are not the fools they are played to
be by those who exploit them for selfish gains. Too long now
there are those who have claimed that they were intensively interested 
in the welfare of the Negroes. Their interest ceased when
there no longer was an economic gain to be secured by exploitation. 

I'm wondering if we the citizens
of Memphis will hang our heads in
shame and repeat that we have
been fooled by fools. Think of it
and attempt to make a trip to Jupiter 
and return in 2,000 years. To
all the citizens of Citizens may I
warn you, beware of Greek Bearing 
Gift, Do as the Negroes of Atlanta, 
pool your assistant and start
a radio station of your own.
A petition, letters, a word of
mouth is being circulated among
the Negroes of Memphis, Tennessee
in behalf of a white operator who
seeks to gain this frequency to appeal 
to a Negro market. He is very
well aware that the popularity of
the station that formerly operated
at this frequency was billed upon it
catering to the Negroes and the Negro 
market.
To the Federal Communication
Commission of Washington, D. C.,
we beseech you to investigate before
granting any licenses to any operator 
of a new station, representing
the Negro that is not owned and
operated exclusively to Negroes.

Truly, he is a child prodigy
LULA BARBEE SMITH,
Teacher of Piano.
Mrs. Myrtle Tyus brought, her
entire class of piano puplis and each
one was eager to have his program
autographed by the little artist, who
graciously granted their requests.
The interpretation and technique
heard and displayed in the piano
recital of William Grant Nabors at
Memphis far excelled an anticipated 
idea of what an 11 year old
could be expected to render. It is
no over rated statement to call
him a "child-wonder."
M R S, HORTENSE BULLOCK
YARBROUOH, Music Department
Booker T. Washington High School
"I have heard of child prodigies
at the piano, but ths was my first
experience to actually hear one
especially of our group, perform as
did the 11 year old William Grant
Nabors.
His mature feeling interpretation
and virile technique is intriguing
to say the least.
The fact that his Mother is a
gifted musician and a product of
Fisk University accounts for much
of his genius which is prouerly
guided will lead him to a high
place among the artists.
MRS. FLORENCE COLE TALBERT 
McCLEAVE, Instructor of
Voice and Piano.
An eleven-year old pupil of the
Of the McCLEAVE SCHOOL OF
MUSIC Charles Emmett McCutcheon 
had the honor of presenting
a small gold loving-cup to the guest
artist, who was highly pleased with
the gift and thanked him heartily

for is first trophy.
William Grant Nabors, talented
juvenile pianist, played to a capacity 
audience on Friday evening,
November 6 in the gymnasium of
the Abe Scharff Branch of the Y.
M. C. A. at Lauderdale and Linden
Avenue. Finding no seats on the
huge basketball court, many persons 
were forced to sit in the bleach
ers generally used by spectators at
basketball games.
From the moments the youthful
prodigy flashed his brilliant smile
in greeting and adjusted the tails
of his miniature full dress suit to
the piano bench, he held his audience 
captive. At the close of the
program we were all clamoring for
more.
Young Nabors is a genius. Alt
he is only eleven year of a
he present a program that was in
no respected juvenile. His program
consisted mainly of compositions
by Bach, Chopin, Dett and Debussy 
that were interpreted, with
the feeling and technical competence 
that would do credit to an
adult performer. His teacher is to
be congratulated for the very wise
choice of selections for his repertoire 
that make no excessive demands 
on the physical strength of
one so small, Nevertheless, he displayed 
as surprising degree of
power when the occasion demanded 
it. The Revolutionary Etude of
Chopin comes to mind at this
point.
Persons who came to applaud
politely out of respect to the well
known and highly-respected local
relatives of this young genius,
found that that he was quite able
to command their respect as 
artist without any reservations
This astounded us all, for here was
genius in the flesh in our very
midst leaving us open-mouthed with
wonder.
One can not help but to predict
a brilliant future for one who has
started so well so soon.
A vocal solo and a tap dance
routine performed at intermission
received generous applause from
the audience.
