HISTORICAL PAPERS FOUND AT MORGAN STATE COLLEGE Historical documents of Morgan State College were found in an 85 - year old cornerstone when the Baltimore Urban Renewal Agency razed the stone structure at Fulton and Edmondson Avenues, Tuesday, to make room for a moderately priced apartment building.

Other items in the cornerstone were: a report of the Maryland Department of Education dated Jan. 14, 1880; 55th annual report of the Board of School Commissioners, 1880; school catalogues from the Johns Hopkins, Drew Theological Seminary, Dickinson College, Lincoln University, Wilberforce University, Wesleyan University; Storer College and Peabody Institute.

Eight Dead And 70 Injured In Riot-Torn Casablanca As a 24-hour news blackout was lifted, emergency courts worked overtime to sentence and fine an undisclosed number of ringleaders of the violent rioting. Hundreds of armed and helmeted troops in full battle dress, backed by tanks and armed cars, patrolled the debris-strewn main squares and streets. The presence of the troops raised tension in the ravaged areas of the city. Evidence of the rampaging mobs was everywhere. Uprooted lamp standards blocked streets Blackened, burned out cars and busses lay overturned. Scores of store windows were shattered as if by a passing tropical hurricane. The rioting, which spread Wednesday to Fez and the capital of Rabat, was considered to be the worst anti-government outbreak since Morocco gained independence from France in 1956. The major disturbance started late Tuesday when thousands of students staged a march through the streets of downtown Cassablanca. The situation became ugly when disgruntled adults infiltrated the student ranks and attacked police. WORLD NEWS DIGEST Presnt-day African history has a hibit of repeating itself This time, the locale is the British protectorate of Bechuanaland which after the recent elections, picked Seretse Khama as its first African prime minister. Khama's ascension to the leadership of his country follows the pattern established by Ghana's President Kawame Nkrumah, and Kenya's Jomo Kenwatta both of whom were jailed for African nationalist activities. Khama's crime, however, was that he offended British and Bamangwato tribal tastes by marrying a white British typist. For that, he was banned from his country for several years. He finally was allowed to return to Bechuanaland, and immediately became an important figure in the territory's drive for independence.

NEW AIR TERMINAL Presnt-day African history has a hibit of repeating itself This time, the locale is the British protectorate of Bechuanaland which after the recent elections, picked Seretse Khama as its first African prime minister. Khama's ascension to the leadership of his country follows the pattern established by Ghana's President Kawame Nkrumah, and Kenya's Jomo Kenwatta both of whom were jailed for African nationalist activities. Khama's crime, however, was that he offended British and Bamangwato tribal tastes by marrying a white British typist. For that, he was banned from his country for several years. He finally was allowed to return to Bechuanaland, and immediately became an important figure in the territory's drive for independence.

Measles Vaccination Drive To Get Underway Coast-To-Coast Campaigns are spurred by the urgency of inoculating children with he new one - shot vaccine before he annual spring measles epidemic reaches its peak. The Public Health Nursing Association in Belfast, Maine, has plans to operate a measles inoculation clinic this week. Children between me and five years of age who have not had the disease will be vaccinated. On the West Coast, physicians in come counties have started a vaccination drive against measles. Their chairman points out that here were 8,357 cases of measles in the San Francisco Bay Area ast year, resulting in five deaths. The goal of this group is to prevent repetition of that record. In Illinois, state Rep. Esther Saerstein introduced a bill for $1.4 million to be used by the State Health Department to purchase measles vaccine. In Massachusetts, several communities are campaigning against eales. Chairman Kevin C. Sulliman of the Tewksbury Health Board intends to start mass immuniza tion there. And in the City of Woburn, Board of Health Chairman Dr. Charles R. Hardcastle has already inoculated more than 2,000 children. On a statewide level, State Rep. William G. Robinson pf Melrose, Mass., has drawn a bill which would direct the State Health Department to "furnish Lirugen measles vaccine to certain children and others throughout the Commonwealth." Massachusetts' concern with measles is understandable since the state is in the midst of a severe epidemic, U. S. Public Health Service figures show that, while there wore only 784 cases of measles reported from that state in the first 10 weeks of 1964, the number is 10,445 for the same period in 1965. Lirugen, the measles vaccine specified in Rep. Robinson's bill, is the new, one shot vaccine produced by the Indianapolis - based PitmanMoore Division of The Dow Chemical Company. In extensive prerelease testing, it proved to be 99 per cent, effective in conferring long - term immunity with minimal reactions among the children receiving it. Because the reaction rate is so low, it am be given without gamma globulin, This quality makes it particularly desirable in mass vaccination programs. KEEPING ABREAST — Rev.
