Rev. T. A. Clark, vice-presiden, inferred: “We are careful not to become radical for this would retard progress. We proceed within the realm of intelligence, reason and constitutional rights.” Rev. Mimms noted that the Alliance vigorously supports and subscribes wholeheartedly to efforts which are aimed at attaining economic stability, improvement of educational objectives and securing equality under the law. Although unsuccessfl in its way, the Alliance ittempted to get the much controversial anti-Negro signs taken down at the privately-owned, but under public ordinance, Riverside Amusement Park. It has been active in various pickets’ and other demonstrations against racial inequality and feels that “the Alliance will have a great

• comunity which > has an effect on I the Negro people.” The president stated: “We work for the advantage of our people and the total community. In any way we can give and support persons who work for our improvements and bettering our ways of life we do so.” On far-reaching issues needing the objective thinking of the Baptists, tne Alliance has worked with the government, business, labor, community, welfare agencies and

schools.

The membership set an example last.year by pooling strength upon sealing an historic merger koitang the Baptist Ministerial Alliance am oinoti Uisinet Ministers Conference. This emphasizes their belief in the solidarity or unity of purpose of all Christian men every-

where.

Through Us v.'-ioiesome Christian program the Baptist ministers have trained its congregation alor ; the list of unity in an efiot tc unfold the Negro’s spirit end interest in niinseii and tne community. Though the Alliance does not set up a youth program in the various churches, youth activities are a predominant factor and

impact on any event arising in the “must” in the Baptist churches, it

was noted by Rev. Mimms. f One of the strongest youth plans is in operation at Greater St. James Baptist Church and was submitted by Rev. Clark. It is a talent development program whereby youth are assigned to pot on talent displays at different intervals. The young Christians are interviewed to find out the things they are best fitted for such as public reations, missionary work and behind the scene promotion. After its is found out how they will adapt individually they are prevailed with an opportunity to illustrate. Said Rev. Clark: “We endeavor to install within our youth the principles of wholesome living, recreational wise, and promote Christian life. We hawe an extensive education program involving youth in which we teaeh them good citizenship. “Our extensive educational program includes a recreation phase and labor. We do not have a rigid critical system, but do emphasize mild and wholesome criticism and give the type of tudorsbip which helps strengthen them in weak spots.” All the Baptist churches have youth choirs, ushers, Sunday School and B.T.U. It was pointed out.

We have made a little progress (but not enough) in changing the entrance requirements of Shortridge High School so as to lower the Negro enrollment. “Plus many other items too mall, or too secret to mention here.” THE “K K K G R A G O N” added that he favors getting away from “the strict secrecy of the original Klan,” but some members disagree with him. “We would reveal the entire organization,” he stated, “except that some board members woo Id fear ‘Negro boycott’ and that sort of thing. “I can say, this, however: that 1 tf we make as much progress in 1962 as we have in 1961, the Klan may come out into the open in Indianapolis by 1964.

NEW YORK — Teens love to make a big splash. This Spring they've jumped feet first into the fashion puddle— and come up in brilliantly colored, multi-hued leather

shoes.

Off-beat color combinations and harlequin-like effects on the flats, moccasins, strap shoes and pumps were highlighted at the Spring fashion previews here. The widly-col-ored shoe—in smooth, grained and patent leathers, brushed and crushed leathers—is retiring the sneaker, finally, to fashion's sidelines this year. Color is the keyword in every type of a shoe—from the classic leather moccasin that has taken on new importance in gold and in pastel patent leathers to the double strapped pump in two hues and two leather textures. Teenagers have struck it rich in a bonanza of gold leather shoes. There ...are eve-dazzling moccasins in ci’ushed gold leather, low-cut boots in gold brushed leather, date pumos in smooth and grained gold leather, reports Shoe Fashion Service of Leather Industries of AmerThe colored patent leather moccasin is seen in combinations of two colors or in one vivid shade. Set on a light leather sole, the moccasin gives a girl sturdy support on any surface, even as the bright colored patent gives the imoression she’s walking on air. In patent leathers, as well as in brushed and smooth leathers, red, white and blue will lead off any parade. But close on their heels will be such striking tones as orange and yellow, bright blues, hot ninks and greens. More than one two-hue shoe will be reminiscent of a traffic signal—red on one side and green on the other. Coppery tones, melon and magenta are other easy-to-spot colors on

teen footwear.

The basic silhouette of the teen flat and moccasin is slightly foreshortened this year—rather than the elongated look of the past few seasons. While moccasins are — chiefly rounded or squared toed,

The strap shoe is oack in teen circles—as a dressy daytime shoe, together with ties and opened up pumns. A spectator flat with wide double straps which carry the burden of the. detailing or a two-hue ghillie tie look more “open” than

they are.

. The same effect is obtained by an asymmetrical mock, a pump with northoles and a sandal. One very popular style is a variation of the “iester” shoe, with wide stripes of different leathers running vertically around the shoe. In the cen-

A typical example of multiple colors is seen on a high-riding glove leather casual flat in orange, with black leather piping and gold clips running up a center vamn strio. For the junior prom or a Saturday night date in town, smooth and suade leather pumps are frequently seen in pastels and brown-to-bone neutrals that quietly complement Spring gowns. An elegant shoe to the eye, the mid-heel dance pump is a comfort to dance in—with its slim leather sole and smooth leather lining.
