Students Cited By Deltas On Wednesday, August 17, 1960, at the 26th National Con vention of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority held in Chicago, two of Atlanta’s co-eds were cited for their “. . . outstanding leadership in the sit-in demon strations in the South . . . high courage, ability, and wisdom in this struggle for human dig nity and respect . . . and cre ative leadership which has helped ... to show to the world their convictions, the dignity of their humility, the strength of their fearlessness in the face of physical threats and other retaliatory measures, and to arouse the conscience of men of good faith everywhere.” Carolyn Long and Mary Ann Smith, currently enrolled in Clark and Morris Brown Col leges, respectively, were each presented a scroll from the So rority “as evidence of its re spect and admiration.” HINTS TO THE NEWLY WEDS Baubles, bangles and beads — and in this case, sheets, pillow cases and towels are in the fore front. Always useful and in ex ceedingly good taste, the afore mentioned articles usually domi nate the wedding scene. The first question newly weds may ask is, “What on earth are we going to do with all of this linen?” Of course, you’re off the hook for buying same, but that, by no means ends your problem. Be cause you have good linen does not mean that it can be treated roughly. Neither does laundering make it stronger. A few points on laundering will help your linen look like new for years to come. White sheets can be washed without special care. The hottest water, chlorine bleach and laun dry soap will keep them spark ling. However, it’s best not to wash more than two sheets in the same load, if you are using an automatic washer. Colored sheets will stay brighter, though they are quite color-fast, THE ATLANTA INQUIRER DR. JACKSON DEPARTS ON FULBRIGHT Dr. Esther Merle Jackson, re cently associated with the Tus kegee Institute Division of Human ities, visited friends in Atlanta last week before departing for Washington and New York where she will complete preparations for a year’s study in England on a Fulbright scholarship.

To this cub was given the name Elsa.

Notice To All Parents and Public School Pupils: Area 1 Superintendent Hilliard Bowen wishes to remind you that the 1960-61 school year begins on Thursday. September 1. FULL DAY SESSIONS BE GIN AT ONCE. There will be no half-day sessions. when washed in warm suds with bleaching agents kept at a mini mum, unless a perborate or oxy gen bleach is used. Along with the sheets, white and pastel towels can be washed. Bright or deep-colored terry tow els should be washed separately since they often hold some excess dye when new. and dark lint may be deposited on other items. Wash the towels in warm suds and bleach as you would colored sheets. A fabric softener, used in the final rinse helps to maintain the soft, fluffy appearance. Per sistant stains or grease can be a problem which ordinary bleach ing cannot eliminate. For those “determined-to-stay” stains, try sponging over them with a clean ing fluid before washing: you may be surprised at the results.
