TODAY’S NEWS TODAY: We just received word that friend Wallace H. Terry II, former Naptown resident, leaves the staff of the Washington Post & TimesHerald after Labor Day to begin research on his first book, which will be published by the Robert Luce Co. of Washington. Terry signed his contract with the Luce concern June 15. The tyook, concerning Negro leadership in present day America, will be published in June 1962. The Luce company in Washington produced “The Kennedy Circle” which is now on the newsstands. When Wally leaves the Washington Post, he interrupts over a year of work there covering Negro nationalism, civil rights, religion, juvenile delinquency and federal government news. WALLY is also a minister, ordained in Indianapolis in 1959. He is an honor graduate of Shortridge High School and received his A.B. degree from Brown University in 1959. The following year he was a Rockefeller Fellow and Disciples Divinity House scholar at the University of Chicago. Wally, whose sister Betty Terry is a good friend of ours, is also vice-president of the Capital Press Club, a member of Omega Psi Phi fraternity, and not long ago, he handled publicity for Operation Crossroads Africa. He says he’ll be back in Naptown in mid-October while touring the country gathering research for his

book.

LAURA MAYS jets to New York this month . . . She and other members of Naptown’s Cosmopolitan Club blew a/gig July 29 at the house Walt Stevens made famous.

C., recently where her brother, Rev. Ronald Winters, is an associate minister at St. Philip’s Baptist Church, and also employed by the government. “It was my first trip there,” she says, “and I just loved it. I was startled by the realization tb*-t there are so many Negroes there working in high government jobs. My brother introduced me to several of them.” Jackie, who was meant for better things than politics, also stated: “You should move to Washington, Ron. You have a talent for writing, and I believe Washington would provide you with a much better opportunity to put it to use.” Jackie Dear; You are no doubt right. Who knows. If I move to Washington I may be able to convince Kennedy to get a haircut . . . During her two week stay, in which she heard her brother speak during services at St. Philip’s Baptist Church, Jackie said she visited the White House (where the other Jackie lives), Congress, the Capitol Building, the Women’s Bureau of the Washington (metropolitan)

Police Dept., the Pentagon, Howard University, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and The United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, Md. . . . Welcome home, Jackie ... A welcome home also to glamour doll Julia Hudson who gets upset everytime I refer to her as Kim Novack, but it’s not my fault that she looks like Kim.

I can’t believe it either but comrade James Shaffer weds Sandra Annette Shelby this week and I wouldn’t miss this even if they didn’t serve any refreshments. Seriously through, James is a great guy and I’m only sorry that now I won’t be able to use all those juicy items I’ve been saving. (Oh, well, lose one get one) . . .
