Clerical positions such as typing, bookkeeping or machine operator and sales in notions and the bakery shop are also available for Negro women., The greatest victory of all came probably in the advancement of colored men employees.

The courtesy shopper will give a first hand report to the personnel office concerning the way colored patronizers are treated. Several employees at the store will be promoted to better positions including one for a slock supervisor. All persons interested in receiving employment at Block’s will be screened by ;.he Association for Merit Employment Inc. Kimberlin told Lacew, after reaching an agreement, “We (at Blocks) are more than willing to cooperate with what you are tryng to do. We are in full accord with your objectives.” Lacey said that periodical meetings between ECON representatives, Kimberlin, Hatchet, assistant buyers and section managers will continue to make sure the program and promises are sustained. If the plans are not carried out, the picket line will immediately boycott the store Going on, Lacey said, “We (ECON) wish to thank the Recorder for the cooperation we received. A great deal and much of our success came as a result of the story disclosing Block’s hiring policies,” and went on to say that he had received several phone calls encouraging him to continue ihe fight. Many Negroes employed at Blocks called and told him more about the situation, while many older persons were against the movement. Everyone concerned with these negotiations Blocks.

HERE'S HOW IT'S DONE: Three members of the Y's Men's Club (A service organization of the Fall Creek YMCA) demonstrate some of the technique they used in washing cars during a carwash and bar-be-que sponsored by the club to raise funds to purchase a motor for the Y's bus. The bus is to be used to trar.-sport kids from. 24 different pioneer clubs in the various
schools to the YMCA for gym and swimminq classes. During the day the club members washed 92 cars, waxed 12 and cold 390 pounds of bar-be-que.

Thomas Cold, feel that the meeting was highly successful. BLOCKS HAS gained fresh, new ideas and has improved its moral among the present loval and competent employees. ECON believes that Kimberlin and Blocks have by initiating this whole, :tew program set an example : or other downtown stores to follow and have earned the right to enjoy their customer’s respect and eontiuned patronage. The committee of ECON allegates this break through the economic barrier to the support of )hc community. Block's execellent program is a victory for all concerned RON LACEY, spokesman for ECON, told the Recorder that places in the downtown area of the city are being investigated nnd so are other important company’s v hieh refuse to hire Negroe’s except for maintenance work. He didn’t call any names but chances are before long Indianapolis businesses will be fully integrated. I ncey was drafted into the army Wednesday, Oct 12.

Out of The Woods
By CAROL BREWER
I LOVE EVERYONE: Things are grim here this week, but the column must go on. Our hero is ambassador RONALD LACEY, illustrating economic opportunities for Negroes, strolling downtown streets investigating m e r - chants. While Army - bound Lacy was out strolling, a c h o o 1 b oy WARD GRIFFIN was shopp i n g at L. Strauss & Co. He was ap- Carol Brewer, proached by a Ex - Manualite, salesman who is this week’s told him that guest c o 1 u mhe had just nist. been chosen to receive a $75 gift certificate, which reportedly had been awarded in the past to whites only. Somebody told Ward it had something to do with his selection of clothes or something like that, but we can’t help from thinking of the threat made by the newly organized ECON (Economic Creative Opportunities for Negroes) group to picket leading downtown stores that didn’t have Negroes employed in first class jobs. Anyway, insiders report there’s a bit more than coincidence about the gift certificate and the campaign ECON.
LET’S BE HAPPY (Not hoppy): By the way, wouldn’t it be wonderful if the people of Indianapolis would get behind the marvelous young talent we have in our city? At the Omega Psi Phi (Zeta Phi Chapter) Talent Hunt show the other night I was startled by the realization that some of our city's top talent are practically unknown on the Naptown scene. Which is hardly fair to the talent. One of the stars is a treat waive encountered many times before. Her name is SHELIA BALL, such a pro that chums peg her as another Marian Anderson. RUTH WOODS (Ron’s adopted sister), is another click who rates the big time places. Then there’s SALLIE HESTER, MARY MOSLEY and JOHNNIE JONES, all great. These kids could go down in the history book of musical entertainment if given half a chance. What happened to the guys who said we should encourage and support our own people? ..... DORIS JEAN LISENBY is expected to marrv a duck named CHESTER TAYLOR.
