Betty CanaAg And After Leisure, What? It is the unexpected that throws you. Like today when 1 got my ironing done. It was finished, over, completed. When I got to the bottom of the basket I automatically checked the refrigerator and there was nothing there. I checked the electric roaster and nothing was hidden there. I called my neighbor, thinking possibly I had left some in her refrigerator but there was nothing. With numb fingers I loosened the catch of the board, gently lifted it from the grooves it has worn in the floor and placed it reverently in the closet. I sat on the sofa for awhile, a woman without a purpose. I remembered the neigh bor child I had met in the supermarket two weeks ago who looked at me with startled recognition and said, “Gee, I didn’t know you without the steam iron.” And I remembered other days. Days when J had merrily left unfinished ironing in order to clean the bathroom or go out to lunch and things like that. But now when the ironing was really done it sort of took the zest out of those mad excursions. Listlessly I dragged myself to the kitchen and made some Jello salads and fixed a Quirks PROFESSIONAL JEALOUSY WOLVERHAMPTON, En gland (UPD—David Griffiths had good reason to be miffed when the management of the “Top O’ the World” ballroom refused to let him in to attend his own engagement party ■rnriFimniEi! iUSL3Eaj|jjLlJtxJB t?W .X \ '! a /Z< wl// 1 1 I !

Then I re membered a list 1 made once when I was blue and out of sorts. It was called "Things to do if I ever get the ironing done.” Surely this was going to be an answer to a prayer! It took a bit of digging but at last I found it and read it. It was a selfish list —things I wanted only for myself. Then I remembered Ellen was coming over and I knew 1 should be busy getting things ready, like washing my best china so she would have something entertaining to do while I was getting lunch. Ellen turns over plates and things to check on how good they are. j I It came to me then—a way to give Ellen the thrill of her life. I mean, I am fond of Ellen and although it has taken me all after noon I have been willing to spend all this time just for her. I can hardly wait until she gets here! 1 will leave the living room and Ellen will start picking up the ashtrays and vases, see, and there on the bottoms will be inscribed, Sistine Chapel. Odiham Youth Club who planned a baby carriage race taking in mid-race refreshment at eight “pubs” along the way. The youths, said the minions of the law, can be legally prosecuted for "being drunk in charge of a carriage.” The club subsequently agreed to reduce the number of refreshment stops during the race. Trust: A Child's Beacon By MURIEL LAWRENCE, Newspaper Enterprise Assn. 2x/ DEAR MRS. LAWRENCE: I am the grand mother of a 4%-year-old boy who tyrannizes his older brother. At bedtime when I am baby-sitting for my son and daughter-in-law, he screams himself into a tantrum if I give his brother first choice from the candy jar. If his mother is preparing to drive anywhere, he will race to grab the front seat beside her so his brother can’t have it. Isn’t he old enough to be taught to take turns with his brother at what he wants? ANSWER: Sure he Is. But he’s not going to be taught this lesson. His mother doesn’t want to teach it to him. If we really want to teach “turn-taking” to a small child, we do it. We lift him out of the front seat he has appropriated, deposit him in the back and say. “It’s Buddy’s turn today. Tomorrow it will be yours. I promise it to you.” And all the howls he can emit don’t disturb us. They don’t disturb us because we trust our ability to keep our.promises. After a bit the small one learns to trust it, too. And the howls are reduced to perfunctory mutter ings. SIGN HIM UP LONDON (UPD—Peter Lon gley, seeing two men smash a store window ana begin remov ing merchandise, floored ona with a left to the jaw and held the other for police—until television crewmen across the street explained the “thieves” were actors in a crime documentary program, televi sion spokesmen said today. So the problem is not the tyranny of this child. It’s his mother’s distrust of herself as a promise-keeper. The experts ascribe the small child’s resist ance to “turn-taking” to his inability to conceive of a future which will deliver what he wants now. But the experts are way off beam in this matter. If a 4Va-year-old can’t trust the future to produce his turn at the proper time, it's because he doesn’t trust u? to come through with it. Moreover, his suspiciousness is intelligent. He has again and again witnessed the ease with which his howls scare us into cheating his older brother of his rightful turn at the car’s front seat. He has repeatedly noted how quick we are to relinquish defense of his brother’s turn. He sees no reason to expect us to defend his when the time for defending it arrives. By the age of three, the small child should have accumulated enough experience of our reliability to trust us whsn we say, “I prom ise you your turn tomorrow.” If he hasn’t, his intelligence is either retarded or our un reliability has made the now of possession the only one to count on. Dixie Hills Death Remains A Mystery By H. P. LEIFERMANN ATLANTA (UPD —A young Negro Wednesday night told the aldermanic police committee he could identify “by name” the policeman connected with the shotgun slaying of Timothy Ross during the Dixie Hills dis turbance on June 20. “I recognized one of the offi cers by name,” said 20-year-old Johnny Burkes. But he added he would “have to think about it” before he would give the name to authorities. Negro witnesses have not come forward earlier because of “fear of bodily harm” said the Rev. Joseph Boone, an of ficial of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. Six Negroes, some wounded In the rioting, appeared before tb° committee to testify about the slaying of Ross, who was shot while sitting n the steps of an apartment building watch ing the riot at a nearby shop ping center. Atlanta police officials told the board their investigation turned up no evidence to sub stantiate the Negroes’ accusa tions. “We haven’t been able to find anyone in the Dixie Hills area that would tell us anything,” said Capt. W. L. Duncan. Duncan said the seven police men in the area where Ross was shot denied firing their shotguns in his direction. Ross was hit by buckshot of the same size used in police riot guns. Charlie Carrolton, a truck driver, said he was sitting on the steps with Ross when buck shot peppered the side of the apartment building. Carrolton said he opened a screen door and scrambled inside. One by one, three wounded Negroes stumbled into the a partment behind him and Ross sprawled on the steps, Car rolton said. BARBS By WALTER C.

The victim’s sister, Mrs. Hel en Bryant, testified that “Tim was real slow about running.” Angela Harden, a Negro girl who said she watched rioting and saw the snots that felled Ross, told the aidermen, “I’m at home every day and every night and the police have not called me yet." Boone said Negroes in Atlan ta are “convinced the police de partment has not acted in good faith in this matter.” He asked the city to adopt several recommendations from SCLC including an end to the use of shotguns in riots and add ir 50 more Negroes to the 1,000- man police force that presently has 100 Negro officers. Chairman Richard C. Free man told a packed audience of Negroes and Whites that the in vestigation would "remain open” and the police hope to question the Negroes who testi fied.
