A/exf SHS Principal Should Be Good In Human Relations, Parents Insist
A letter urging that the new principal ‘ of Shortridge High School be an educator wellqualified and disposed to promote a* good race relations program at the school was adopted Tuesday night by a recently formed group of parents and other interested adults. Superintendent of Schools George F Ostheimer and the School Board were to be sent the letter, according to action of the Shortridge Parents Human Relations Council. The office of principal will become vacant upon the retirement of Joel W. Hadley this spring. THE COUNCIL ADOPTED a statement of purpose declaring its
objects to be: “To promote better understanding and more friendly relations among the various racial, national, religious and social groups at Shortridge; to encourage full and free participation by all students in all school activities; to help create a situation in which every child may obtain the fullest education of which he is capable.” The council will seek to pursue these objects, according to the stataement, “by promoting, better communication among parents; by learning the facts about human relations at Shortridge; by informing the school and the community
about these facts by working with the administration, the faculty, student groups and the ParentTeacher Association.” SPEAKERS STRESSED that membership in the council is open to all Shortridge parents, alumni and other adults interested in its purposes. Election of permanent officers has been delayed so that the greatest possible number of persons may take part. Dr. Roland G. Usher, a professor at Butler University, is president pro tern. Rev. Lester H. Bill proposed the letter on the principalship. Dr. Emma Lou Thornbrough of Butler presented the report of the committee on statement of purpose.

“PERSONALLY I HAVE no confidence in these demonstrations as bringing about a permanent solution to the problem, though I see their long-term beneficence,” continued the educator. He added that “I think it will take the raising up of a new generation to give a lifetime in order to end segregation. “I’m not talking only about moral indignation, but keen minds. The Negro stereotype will not die by protests, but by the work of
minds of distinctive quality.” While stressing the importance of education, Dr. Proctor observed that “brains alone are not enough. You must also have broad social vision.
“Brains alone can be perverted, such as we sew in Nazi Germany.” he noted. It was then he made an eloquent appeal for church leaders to work together with the young people for “the kind of vic-to-y that is worth fighting for." SPEAKING BEFORE THE fourth In this year’s series of Monster Meetings, the president .said he has deceived a large volume of protest mail from “demon-possessed”
white Southerners
“We had taken their love — or at least their neutrality — for granted, but the slightest crisis has smoked them out and they stand with flaming tongues against
us,” he declared.
“They do rot at any time in
the future intend to regard colored people as human. They regard ns as some strange form of plant life which they
tolerate on this planet.

University and Benedict College — in Columbia. Four Negro students at Allen were arrested but later were released when police found no evidence to link them with the outbreak. A Negro spokesman said groups of white and Negro students engaged in a brick-throwing frgy the same night and a cross was burned ■on property owned by the university. Negroes in Florida, Texas and Kentucky were unsuccessful in their efforts to secure equal service at lunch counters as sit-in demonstrations continued to spread. Hundreds of Negro students throughout the South have been arrested in connection with the protest. Each series of arrests has had the effect to revitalizing the youngsters’ drive for equal accommodations. At East Lansing, Mich., Ernest Green, first Negro graduate of Little Rock’s Central High School, led a peaceful sympathy demonstration protesting racial segregation in the South. One of the original Little Rock Nine. Green, president of the Michigan State University NAACP chapter in East Lansing, said he led the picketing of the local variety store because chain members in the South refuse to serve Negroes. Negro students in Lexington, Ky., who had planned a second sitdown last Saturday found a sign on the variety store’s lunch counter saying it had been closed because of “a breakdown.” Asked what had broken down, the store manager replied: “Relations.” Police and firemen averted a possible racial clash Sunday at Montgomery. An estimated 1,000 students of Alabama State College, whose recent demonstrations brought expulsion of nine campus leaders, had planned a mass prayer meeting on the steps of the state capitol but later changed their meeting place to Dexter Avenue Baptist Church, where Rev. Martin Luther King was formerly pastor. WHILE THE MEETING was in progress, some 5,000 white spectators assembled, several hundred of them charging through police lines when the Negroes started to leave Officers armed with clubs and service revolvers pushed the Negroes back onto church property while the crowd was dispersed un der threat of a drenching by city firemen.
