The Miami clergyman faces six months in jail and a $1.200 fine for refusing to turn over the names of Miami NAACP members to the Florida Legislative Investigating Committee.

Father Gibson is also a plaintiff in a case just filed that challenges segregated eating facilities in the Tallahassee, Fla., airport. Rev. Edward J. Odom, Jr., NAACP national church secretary, announced that 200 clergymen, mostly from the Greater Philadelphia area, are expected at the breakfast.

South Realizes Desegregation Is Inevitable, Rilling States The South is becoming more resigned to the inevitability of integration, a leader, of the Southern Regional Council said Friday. "Realism is beginning to creep up on many whites who refused to face facts alter the 1954 Supreme Court school desegregation decision," Paul Rilling, the Council's director of field services, told the 18th annual Race Relations Institute at Fisk University. Since 1957, Mr. Rilling said, the number of southerners, Negro and white, who feel that integration is coming has risen from 45 percent to 76 percent However, he report ed, polls have shown no increase in the number of southerners who actually favor integration. Partly responsible for the growing acceptance of integration's inevitability, according to Mr. Rilling, has been that many southern business leaders are realizing that allour resistance to integration creates a poor climate for business by bringing violence and turmoil to the community. Reviewing the recent progress of Negro civil rights. Mr. Rilling declared that the past 18 months have been more significant than any period since 1954. He cited the de segregation of lunch counters in 129 communities, progress in voting rights, and increasing action by the federal government in the civil rights field. On the other hand, he said, little progress has been made in ending job discrimination in the South. While predictions are difficult in a time of ferment, Mr. Rilling said, it was likely that Negro pressure for equal rights would become increasingly militant. He called the growing diversity of Negro leadership a "healthy sign of strength" and said the new leadership would probably develop new techniques of protest to meet changing situations.

Violation Of Florida Citrus Code Charged General Juices Corp., pleaded guilty Wednesday to three counts of violating the Florida citrus code by introducing additives to juices. Agricultural Commissioner Doyle Conner, who attended the public hearing here, had charged the Howey - in the - Hills plant with violating the code from Oct. 1, 1960, through May 2, 1961. Former employes of the corporation told of placing water, citrus acid, sugar and other additives to grapefruit and blends of orange and grapefruit juices during the period. The owners of the canning plant — Frank Purpura, Trving Swartzberg, John C. Youngblood and Elmer C. Youngblood — testified they had no knowledge the additives were used. State chemist George Westbrook had testified at last week's hearing that analyses revealed that an abnorml high content of sodium ws used in the Juices. Conner said he would take the evidence to Tallahassee, make an adeqquate study and act accordingly. Conner has the authority to revoke the corporation's license until Aug. 31, after which the plant can make a re - application. "My responsibility as commissioner is to enforce the Florida citrus laws," Connor said. "Some are pleasant, some are unpleasant. We are proud of the Florida citrus industry, and we must adhere to the citrus laws."

NEA Finally Pledges Support To Supreme Court Decision Of 1954 The 765,000-member National Education Association went on record for the first time Friday as pledging support to the United States Supreme Court decision of 1954, outlawing racial segregation in public schools. The resolution was the strongest ever adopted by NEA on the subject. It had been bitterly fought out in the NEA between the North and the South since 1955. It was discussed here quietly Friday for two hours. It was adopted by a large majority and applauded by the delegates. The key sentence in the resolution reads. "The National Education Association pledges continued support of the United States Supreme Court decision on school desegregation." It marked the first time that the association has even mentioned the Supreme Court decision in its official resolutions. The desegregation resolution also requested NEA officers "to plan and initiate actions which will assure the maintenance of free public education," promote respect for the law, "support local and state associations which seek to protect teachers whenever their professional rights and status are "unfairly menaced, and "openly commend" state and local school offiicals and other citizens for "efforts to improve conditions."

Be Recovered?

Sunday School Lesson International Sunday School Lesson for July 9, 1961. In our Biblical study for today, we see how Andrew, representative of average men, teaches us to bring persons to Christ. Andrew, humblest of fishermen, answers the summons to serve God, and, not only that, brought his brother Simon — who was called Peter — to Jesus, as one of his first services. The contrast between the two brothers was most marked, if we are to believe what we read in our Scriptures. Peter, big, powerful, popular, brilliant and dramatic; Peter was well - known to everyone. Andrew, the quiet one, was merely "Peter's brother." But nowhere in the Scriptures — where Peter is mentioned by name over 150 times in the New Testament, and Andrew but 13 — do we see a hint of Jealousy on Andrew's part. Andrew accepted his limitations and rejoiced in his brother's many gifts — and was humbly grateful that Peter should devote those gifts to the service of Jesus. As the world measures men, Andrew was Just run -of - the mill; but as God measures men, Andrew had dimensions of greatness. Beneath the surface, where what is in us is measured against the sky line of the spirit and the horizons of eternity, Andrew was a giant. He was the first missionary the first to serve the cause of home missions. He was the first evangelist — the first to practice visitation evangelism. He was the first to act in response to awareness of the relevance of Jesus Christ to all mankind. Note Andrew's alertness to the importance of a small boy. Jesus and the Twelve had sailed to the eastern shore of the Sea of Galilee and had gone into a "desert place" to escape the multitude that had been following them. But the crowd followed, and soon there was a dilemma created by a hungry crowd which was far from town and without food. It was Andrew, ever discerning and appreciative of the potential in others, who provided our Lord with the answer. "There is a lad here," he said, "with five barley loaves and two fish." Blessed are they who are not too big or too busy to take notice of a lad and his potential. Some years ago a young man joined a struggling little church. From the day he took his vows, he worked loyally for that church, despite the fact he was given one of the hardest jobs in the church — teaching a class of junior - high boys who were described as "holy terrors." They had baffled every teacher assigned them, as well as their parents. Despite the fact that the young teacher was working hard on a full-time pob at low pay to support his family, and crying to complete requirements for a doctor of philosophy degree he took that class and stayed with them until they graduated from high school and went away either to college or to war. Although there were many times when he was discouraged, and often convinced he was a failure, he did not quit. He believed in those boys' potentials. He never ceased trying to bring them, as Andrew did another lad, to Jesus. Today three of those boys are ministers in the church, each one having worked his way through college and seminary. Another is serving in Africa as a missionary. Several other young men in the age group of these young persons became their friends and joined tat church. One of them is now a research chemist. Another worked his way through college and medical school and is a highly esteemed physician in his community. Blessed indeed are they who, like Andrew, are alert to the potentials and importance of a lad. Once convinced that Jesus of Nazareth was the Messiah, Andrew had made too thrilling and compelling a discovery to keep it to himself. He went out and shared it. In his quier, humble way, he did the most important work anyone can do on earch and performed the greatest service anyone can do for other people — he introduced them to Christ. Andrew's way of bringing persons to Christ is the throbbing heart n Christianity, the secret of its renewing life and growth. The place where Christianity lives or dies is in the face -to-face relationships of people who share with others what they have discovered in Christ.

Despite the fact that the young teacher was working hard on a full-time pob at low pay to support his family, and crying to complete requirements for a doctor of philosophy degree he took that class and stayed with them until they graduated from high school and went away either to college or to war. Although there were many times when he was discouraged, and often convinced he was a failure, he did not quit. He believed in those boys' potentials. He never ceased trying to bring them, as Andrew did another lad, to Jesus. Today three of those boys are ministers in the church, each one having worked his way through college and seminary. Another is serving in Africa as a missionary. Several other young men in the age group of these young persons became their friends and joined tat church. One of them is now a research chemist. Another worked his way through college and medical school and is a highly esteemed physician in his community. Blessed indeed are they who, like Andrew, are alert to the potentials and importance of a lad. Once convinced that Jesus of Nazareth was the Messiah, Andrew had made too thrilling and compelling a discovery to keep it to himself. He went out and shared it. In his quier, humble way, he did the most important work anyone can do on earch and performed the greatest service anyone can do for other people — he introduced them to Christ. Andrew's way of bringing persons to Christ is the throbbing heart n Christianity, the secret of its renewing life and growth. The place where Christianity lives or dies is in the face -to-face relationships of people who share with others what they have discovered in Christ. COULDN'T KEEP TO HIMSELF International Sunday School Lesson for July 9, 1961. In our Biblical study for today, we see how Andrew, representative of average men, teaches us to bring persons to Christ. Andrew, humblest of fishermen, answers the summons to serve God, and, not only that, brought his brother Simon — who was called Peter — to Jesus, as one of his first services. The contrast between the two brothers was most marked, if we are to believe what we read in our Scriptures. Peter, big, powerful, popular, brilliant and dramatic; Peter was well - known to everyone. Andrew, the quiet one, was merely "Peter's brother." But nowhere in the Scriptures — where Peter is mentioned by name over 150 times in the New Testament, and Andrew but 13 — do we see a hint of Jealousy on Andrew's part. Andrew accepted his limitations and rejoiced in his brother's many gifts — and was humbly grateful that Peter should devote those gifts to the service of Jesus. As the world measures men, Andrew was Just run -of - the mill; but as God measures men, Andrew had dimensions of greatness. Beneath the surface, where what is in us is measured against the sky line of the spirit and the horizons of eternity, Andrew was a giant. He was the first missionary the first to serve the cause of home missions. He was the first evangelist — the first to practice visitation evangelism. He was the first to act in response to awareness of the relevance of Jesus Christ to all mankind. Note Andrew's alertness to the importance of a small boy. Jesus and the Twelve had sailed to the eastern shore of the Sea of Galilee and had gone into a "desert place" to escape the multitude that had been following them. But the crowd followed, and soon there was a dilemma created by a hungry crowd which was far from town and without food. It was Andrew, ever discerning and appreciative of the potential in others, who provided our Lord with the answer. "There is a lad here," he said, "with five barley loaves and two fish." Blessed are they who are not too big or too busy to take notice of a lad and his potential. Some years ago a young man joined a struggling little church. From the day he took his vows, he worked loyally for that church, despite the fact he was given one of the hardest jobs in the church — teaching a class of junior - high boys who were described as "holy terrors." They had baffled every teacher assigned them, as well as their parents. Despite the fact that the young teacher was working hard on a full-time pob at low pay to support his family, and crying to complete requirements for a doctor of philosophy degree he took that class and stayed with them until they graduated from high school and went away either to college or to war.
