There was a man in Indianapolis who owned a car which he always kept insured. He also owned many valuable personal things like clothing, dishes, bedding, furniture and electrical appliances. The car which he kept insured was worth $1,000. After the fire burned out his home, he found his personal loss was over $2,000. For fire and windstorm insurance

favored over Warren Central. Thursday evening’s play will pit S c e c i n a-Pike Township, T e c hSpeedway and Cathedral-Washiog-ton. NOT UNTIL 1:15 FRIDAY afternoon will Cleon Reynolds’ classy city chamns deign to make their first appearance in the meet. Ranked No. 3 in the state, the Blue Devils should get by the Deaf School without working up a sweat. Attucks will have more trouble with, perhaps. North Central in the following game. Friday night’s contests might see Ben Davis beat Scecina and Tech take Washington in the closest game so far. Then at 1 p. m. Saturday the Shortridge cagers, if they have not passed away from boredom, will encounter Attucks whom they have already defeated twice, 61-58 and 59-45. Will it be “Third time’s a charm’’ or “Other team wins the odd game’’? Two-thirty might find Ben Davis, with Dick Russell firing, against Tech. This would pave the way for a Shortridge or Attucks-

Tech showdown in Saturday night’s finale. ONE GLANCE SHOWS this is a bruising path for Garrett’s Tigers, who have had trouble putting one good game behind another this season. In fact, the Green-and-Goldsters haven’t really played at top form for more than one half on any occasion. In the City Tourney they showed a tendency to tire — a common weakness of tall boys. In Attucks’ favor, however, is the tremendous depth of the squad. This writer measured the longer Tigers on Tuesday, with the following actual nesults: Bill Jones, 6-7; Tony Dixon, 6-6V&; Larry Young, Stu Smith and Bobby Edmonds, 6-6; Claude Williams, 6-3 (and the best jumper on the team). With all this height plus the oustide accuracy of Larry McIntyre, Jerry Hazelwood, Don Swift, Jim Gholston and Jerry Trice (Detroit Spencer too, when he shoots), the Tigers could win ’most any two Sectionals in the state. Their problem is to win one. Then too, different boys get hot on different nights. Against Wood Tuesday, Dixon (a substitute) led with 15 points, while Young, who has seien little action, got 8 and Spencer hit 3 long fielders. MEANWHILE SHORTRIDGE will be picking daisies along the way. This should work in the Blue Devils’ favor, but it just conceivably could dull their edge.

Police Harass

shot, but witnesses — one of whom made a signed statement to The Recorder — averred he was never more than 10 or 12 feet in front of the officers. Continuing to serve Negroes as well as whites, Apostoles was steadily visited by police oh “all kinds of trumped-up excuses,” he told a Recorder reporter. The harassment hit a high point on or about New Year’s Day, when Apostoles, a waiter, Johnnie Jones, and nine customers were arrested on “disorderly person” charges after police saw a man “peddling cigarettes” in the restaurant without a license. Judge Virgil Norris, Apostoles said (he was interviewed Thursday afternoon, and The Recorder was unable to verify the report), dismissed the charges, pointing out that nothing had happened to qualify the arrested men as “disorderly persons.” Apostoles had earlier talked with a hign-ianKing oiiicer he believecu to be Inspector Carl Schmidt about the police harassment, especially that ’of Lucas. BUT A FEW DAYS LATER, he alleged, Lucas boasted to him, “I have been told to do anything I’m big enough to do by my lieutenant, my captain and my inspector.” ne uiho quoted Eucas as telling him in trout of witnesses, “You Know how i feel about this” (serving Negroes.) “During the night of Feb. 17,” Apos.olcs chargej in a signed s.atement made to The Recorder, •police officers entered my place ai business and artef ordering ;our customers out, proceeded to beat up a Negro employe, Clarence Robertson, and ran him out of the premises ana told him not to .orne back. These officers were ir. uniform and one was a sergeant, oquad Car E-27 wa.' involved. “The following night, Feb. 18, five police officers came here and hreatened me because of my democratic policy open to all races. They said ihey would get my license revoked on some flimsy pretense if I did not refuse to serve Negroes.

Arthur Smith Selling Tires For O. K. Co

Arthur Smith, native of Cleveland and a World War II veteran, is presently selling tires for the O. K. Tire Service, 222 W. Michigan, where he has been employed in this capacity for the past two

years.

Smitty is well known in local circles as quite a bop, rhythm and blues singer and ha:i appeared on The Recorder Christmas shows. Along with selling guaranteed used ires, he occasionally does a little chirping at local bistros. O. K. Tire Service specializes in new, reconditioned and used tirer, and Smiity can be reached by calling ME. 5-4514. He is always willing and ready to serve with he lowes. possible terms. Mr. Smith is married and his wife Bernice is a graduate of A. and I. State University at Nashville. They have one child, a daughter, Diamous, and reside at 725V£ N. Senate.

she went on. “I honestly don’t believe they do. If a person is going to be promiscuous, she doesn’t worry too much about the conse-

quences.”

As acute as the problem of too large and unplanned families is here, it is nothing .compared to that of such overpopulated countries as Japan and India, Mrs. Mc-

Calment said.

She -told of some of the difficulties encountered by Planned Parenthood representatives in India. “THE FIRST ATTEMPT at birth control there was through contraceptives, but this proved too expensive for an economically undeveloped country. And even if the ami-pregnancy pills were available, the cost of 50 cents .each would have proved too much. “So they decided to use the rhythm method approved by the Roman Catholic Chucch. only to find that most of the women had never

seen a calendar.

“To combat this difficulty, they hit upon the idea of making necklace.'' with one bead for each day of the month — a green ore for each ‘safe’ day and a red one for each ‘unsafe’ day. They oven made the beads in different shapes so the wearer wouldn’t get mixed up in

the dark.

“But as you can imagine, this didn’t work out too well. For instance, a child simply by playing with his mother’s necklace might upset a whole cycle, ’ she said, provoking uninhibited laughter from her audience. "Be iides,” she added more seriously, “the rhythm method is just too unreliable.” The acuteness of the problem here in Marion .County is reflected in Welfare statistics, she said. And many cases are referred to the association by the Department of

Welfare.

Mn . McCalment told of one instance where a man admitted burglarizing a community center luncheon every night for a week, just to get one good meal a day for his too large family. Speaking of some of the other areas in which Planned Parenthood works, she said their doctors often are able to help sterHe or infertile couples, el her by remedying the physical disorder or by helping them to adopt a child. In an amazing number of cases, she stated, about a year after a couple adopt a child, they have one of their own, urging the theory that much infertility is of psychological origin. At the risk of shattering the ego of the males in her audience, she said some 50 percent of physical infertility was found in husbands. She said Planned Parenthood does not urge any £pecific number of children for a couple but leaves it to the couple themselves to decide how many children they can adequately care for and love.

“I should add that after the action of Feb. 17, he officers ransacked my grill, and the next morning I found it a wreck. They refused to let the said employee call me or even finuh waiting on a customer.” Apos oles could think of no plausible reason for the office:: 1 harassment, although he did point out that the manager of a tavern a little porth of the restaurant had commented that the Negroes eating at the E. and A. Grill were running away his customers. Wednesday night, the 29-year-old restaurateur said, he was told by officers that if one.person was ever found in the restaurant with liquor on his breath, everyone in the restaurant would be arrested and Apostoles would lose his license. “I JUST DON’T BELIEVE this should happen in America,” sa^d Apostoles. a naturalized American and son of a Greek Orthodox minis cQsfrJlev. Harry Apostolaki:* of St. Louis, “and I ame not going to let them get away with pushing me around when I am only doing what the law demands that I do.” He planned to contact the Indianapolis NAACP and the Indiana Civil Liberties Union, he said.

It is the well-earned hour of pleasant pastimes and reflections, the slowly-savored hour when Americans relax and then enjoy a drink or two of the most famous whiskey the world has ever known.
