NAACP Seeks Calm
In Louisville, Ky.
The local
branch of the National Association 
for the Advancement of Colored 
people, under leadership of the
Rev. W. J. Hodge, continued efforts 
this weft to restore calm in
riot-torn Louisville.
In appeals for an end to the
violence, Mr. Hodge and other
NAACP and community leaden
have toured the area where rioting
erupted on May 27 following reinstatement 
of a white policeman
who had been dismissed on charges
of using excessive force in the arrest 
of a Negro suspect. They have
also issued appeals over television
and radio.
As of May 31 two Negro youths,
aged 14 and 19, had been killed,
one by a police officer and the
other by a store owner, on charges
of looting. Meanwhile, some 2,000
National Guard troops have been
patroling the area. Negro marshals
have also helped clear crowds in
the area.
Mayor Kenneth A. Schmied has
thus far declined an NAACP invitation 
to tour the riot area had
to meet with the people in the
street in the manner of Mayor
John Lindsay of New York City.
Since the rioting began some
350 persons have been arrested.
NAACP lawyers are representing
many of these victims as their
cases are called.

Remember when movie
cameras were big, expensive,
and mysterious?

The only thing that stayed the same is that it's still called a
movie camera. Otherwise, the Kodak Instamatic M12 movie camera
is one of a whole new breed.
It's small. Fits right in your palm. Never needs winding. It's
less than $30. In its outfit with Kodachrome film, wrist strap, and
batteries, less than $35.

And there's nothing mysterious about dropping in a film
cartridge and shooting until your
50 feet are used up. And the
movies are super 8, which means
a really sharp, bright picture
on your screen.
We made it
palm-size.
There's a wide range of
Kodak movie cameras and super
8 projectors (which you need for
super 8 movies). Drop in at your
Kodak dealer's and see what's
happened to movie cameras.


Patterson Church Celebrates
74th Founding Anniversary
The 74th
anniversary of the founding of St.
Augustine Presbyterian church
was here today it special ceremonies 
honoring areas firms and institutions 
for their "services to
church and community."
Awards in the form of laminated
plaques were presented by the
Rev. John Bagby, pastor of St. Augustine. 
They were presented to
Eastman Kodak Processing Laboratory 
at nearby Fairlawn; New
Jersey Bell Telephone Company
Passaic county Vocational School,
New Jersey Work Experience Title 
V and The Paterson News, as
well as to several members of the
congergation.
The Kodak award was received
by C. Everett Moses, manager of
the processing laboratory.
"Without the cooperation of
Kodak and other concerned employers 
for literally hundreds of
deserving, underprivileged members 
of our community," the pastor
said.
Rev. Bagby, who is 47 and the
father of two teenage girls, was
prominant in the field of human
relations and job training for the
underprivileged in northern New
Jersey before assuming his pastorate 
at St. Augustine. His re
cord of achievement over the past
six years at the church has been
cited several time in the press and
by public officials.
In addition to new church and

rectory, St. Augustine's parishners,
whose numbers have grown under
his pastorate, have completely renovtated 
their parish hall where
much of Rev. Bagby's activities
for the community is centered.
Under his leadership, and with
the help of business firms and
community leaders, St. Augustine's
now maintains a day care center
for working mothers, a medical
and dental clinic, a referral service 
for logal aid, education, housing 
and family counseling, adult
education classes and, perhaps
most important, and office for
helping the "unemployable" find
work and, in Rev. Bagby's words,
"self-respect and freedom from the
welfare rolls."
A native of Philadelphia, Rev.
Bagby is a graduate of Lincoln
University, Oxford, Md., and Temple 
University Theological Seminary. 
He holds a master's degree
in education from Albany State
College and a master's degree in
religion from Union Theological
Seminary in New York City.
His work of rebuilding the
church and enhancing its position
in the community has been made
more difficult because of its location 
in the heart of Paterson's
"inner city" ghetto area, where
construction loans and mortgage
guarantees are not always readily
obtainable.
