File Suit Against
Columbus Bus Co.
COLUMBUS, GA., —Leaders of
three local Negro organizations
Monday filed a petition with the
Columbus city commission and the
Columbus Transit Co. seeking de-
segration of city buses.
The petition called on the transit
system to integrate its buses in
accordance with the law, because
it deals in interstate commerce by
crossing the Chattahoochee River
into neighboring Phenix City, Ala.
The group, led by Rev. E. D. Bry
son and E. J. Jenkins, represented
the Muscogee County Registration
Council, the Non-Partisan Voters
League and the Citizens Commit
tee, with total membership of about
800. _____

L. H. Harrison, who had a com

out exception the bull has helped to
improve my herd. He produces well
marked, beef type calves and has
dene a remarkably good job of
breeding all my cows. The FFA
project enabled me to obtain the
services of a higher quality bull
than I could afford and all he cost
me was his feed.”
• Among community services ren
dered in the shop work at Craw
ford County High is the making of
farm gates. The material is paid
for by the farmer. The Future Far
mers do the work for shop practice.
A rotary mower is one of the more
ambitious projects for the Future
Farmers. “The parts came from
just everywhere,” Lowrey said.
“The hoys must learn welding in
the shop and when they have
learned the basic principles, they
might as well make something
worth while.”
A loading shute on wheels for
community use has found much
favor with cattlemen of the coun
ty. So has the device the boys
built to hold a steer in place for
filing of his hooves.
“Before we constructed the hoof
trimmer, the 4-H Clubbers and Fu
ture Farmers who wanted to show
steers had to take the animals to
the vet for hoof trimming. Now,
they can do the job for themselves.
A posthole digger that works on
the power takeoff from the tractor,
recently built by the FFA’s is in
constant use in the county.
