Classes resume at Myers
SAVANNAH, Ga. (UPI) — Classes were scheduled as
usual today at Myers Junior High School which has been
closed twice in three days because of racial fights.
Sixteen students, all juveniles, were arrested in the
latest out-break Wednesday in which black and white
students tossed rocks and bottles and fought with their
fists.
Six persons were reported injured, three of them
teachers. One girl was taken to a hospital for treatment of
a leg cut but later released and the other injuries were
reported to be minor.
Officials said 35 windows and three doors were smashed
during the outbreak, touched off when the first buses
carrying blacks arrived at the school and were pelted by
whites.
Soon the beaches will be packed with thousands of Easter
visitors. (UPI)

IMavajo awarded
Ph.D in physics
By FRANK MACOMBER
Copley News Service
“Lo! The poor Indian.” Long
years ago that was the white
man’s way of dismissing the
plight of American Indians.
Today the “poor Indian” of
ten still is poor. But times have
changed, and the new genera
tion of red men is being woven
more and more into the fabric
of the nation’s business, cultur
al and scientific life.
There are Indian leaders who
will discount this claim. So it
must be buttressed by the story
of Fred Young, a 3»-year-old
Navajo father of seven. Once
he worked during the summer
as a sheepherder for a dollar a
day. Now he has become the
first Navajo to obtain a Ph.D.
degree in physics and is work
ing at the Los Alamos, N.M.,
Scientific Laboratory, operated
by the University of California.
It was a long, tough road
from sheepherder to physicist
for Fred Young. There were
times when he ran out of money
for school tuition and when only
bakery and dairy charge ac
counts kept the Young family
from near starvation.
Now that the ordeal has
ended happily, however, Fred
believes young Indians with de
termination and self-confi
dence often can make it, even
though it will be the hard way.
Fred credits the Navajo Tri
bal Council for much of his
good fortune. It backed him fi
nancially even when he broke
some of the rules and selected
physics as a major instead of
engineering, as the council had
suggested. That halted his
council scholarship. But later,
when the council saw Young
fighting his way up alone, it re
warded that courage by grant
ing money to a student for
graduate work. It was the first
time the council had approved
such a grant and presumably
cleared the way for other In
dians bent on using education
as their step toward the top.
Fred Young, aside from
achieving a goal which seemed
remote, if not downright im
possible to attain while he was
standing in the fields with the
sheep, also has convinced the
Navajo Council it should
change the rules and allow In
dian students to choose their
own college majors, even
change them in mid-course

“There are smiles that make
you happy, there are smiles
that make you sad,” read the *
lyrics to a popular song of an
other era. For Julie Towers, a
Fort Lauderdale, Fla., wait
ress, a smile made somebody ,
happy and brought her a $l5O
tip with a 94-cent breakfast
check for muffins and coffee.
Julie remembers she smiled »
at the woman and the two men
even though her feet hurt and
she couldn’t expect much more
than a quarter tip, if that much. •
“But when I handed one of
the men the check, he smiled
back and handed me a $l5O
tip,” she recalls. “He was real >
nice. He complimented me and
told me I was too high class to
work in a restaurant. When I
tried to give back the money he »
insisted I keep it. And the lady
said he could afford it.
“Then I called the cops and
got them to escort me home.” »
A smile won’t get everybody
$l5O, or we all would go around
grinning like idiots. Still, a
morning smile like the one i.
Julie flashed is a good way to
balance off the growls and
grumbles you may get later in
the day. •
