Final selection of Georgia’s
Teacher of the Year will be the
job of three State Supreme Court
justices; Carlton Mobley, T.
Grady Head, and Bond Almand.
Justice Mobley, chairman of
the judging committee, said,
“The Teacher of the Year pro
gram is one way in which our
teachers in Georgia may be given
some recognition for their in
valuable professional work. I feel
that the program is helping to
develop a deeper respect and
loyalty for the teaching profes
sion and the important role it
plays in the democratic way of
life.”

Cook Seeks Dismissal
of Horace Ward Case
Attorney General Eugene Cook
has made a new request for dis
missal of Negro Horace Ward's
suit against the University of
Georgia on grounds his enroll
ment at Northwestern Univer
sity law school had rendered the
lawsuit “moot.”
Mr. Cook's brief rebutted
Ward's requested amendment to
the suit which would have Fed
eral Court Judge Frank A. Hoop
er order Ward admitted to the
University of Georgia anytime he
might wish to transfer from
Northwestern.
This plea by Ward's attorney’s
Mr. Cook argued, “sets out a
new cause of action" and is not
authorized under the Federal
Rules of Civil Procedure.
World War II Vets to Pay
6% Billion Income Tax
ATLANTA, GA , Feb. 1, 1957—
The extend to which the Ameri

in all phases of American life
is evident in a recent statement
by Peter Wheeler, Director of
the State Department of Veter
ans Service.
Wheeler stated that based on
the reported average income dur
ing the past year for World War
II Vets in the age bracket 25-
44, World War II Veterans will
have paid $6,710,123,000 in Fed
eral Income Tax or nearly double
the amount contributed by the
number and age bracket of non-
Veterans. Wheeler said the fig
ures were computed on a family
of three with the median in-

THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS
The State has taken the posi
tion that the University of Geor
gia cannot now in the future
threat Ward as a jiew student
based on his status at the time
he initially brought his lawsuit
in 1950 but must reapply under
the rules governing transfer
students.
Mr. Cook’s brief alleques that
assumptions by Ward’s attorneys
that the former Atlanta Negro
had been discriminated against
in the University’s denial of his
application as a law student were
“not based upon the facts” in
the trial.
The Attorney General’s brief
could be the final step in the six
year-old suit prior to the Judge's
decision.
I come of the veteran as $4406 as
compared to $3570 for the non-
I veteran. “The income figures,”
he said, “were obtained from
census bureau statistics on per-
I sonal income.”
“In a similar comparison con
fined to Georgia alone," Wheeler
continued, “the Word War II
vets will pass on to the Federal
Government an estimated $121,-
049,000 by a like number of non
veterans.”
In conclusion, Wheeler point
ed out that the entire VA budget
for the Fiscal Year 1957 is limit
ied to approximately $2 billion
1 less than the estimated Federal
Revenue from the World War
II vets alone.

FARMERS ASKED
10 KEEP RECORDS
Farmers should keep adequate
records of all income and ex
penses from farming operations
in order to file complete tax re
turns, Paul Cobb, District Di
rector of Internal Revenue, ad
vised today.
Records should be kept up-to
date by recording all sales and
expenses. Personal living ex
penses such as food, clothing, and
the like, are not considered farm
expenses.
Tax returns for farm income
in 1956 should be completed and
mailed to the District Director of
Internal Revenue at Atlanta.
Georgia as soon as possible after
the close of the year. Early filing
will be a big help to Uncle Sam
and will put behind a detail that
becomes a bigger headache the
longer it is put off.

j ON THE
| SCREEN |
“THE BARRETTS OF WIMPOLE
STREET."
This is a re-make of that
memorable and lovely Metro-
Goldwyn-Mayer production of
the same name. In color and
Cinemascope this time and with
Jennifer Jones playing the role
of Elizabeth Barrett, which Nor
ma Shearer did before, this is the
moving story of the poetess’s
romance with Robert Browning,
with all the passion of her strug
gle with her father smoldering
and flaming on the screen again.
The main substance of the film
is in the conflict that slowly and
painfully evolves between the
couch-ridden Elizabeth and her
father would like to keep her in
passive thrall to his pride and, as
is revealed, his incestuous hun
ger. These phases of the story are
most honestly and brilliantly
played by John Gielgud as the
father and by Miss Jones. Bill
Travers is excellent in the robust
Browning role.
As for the other Barrett chil
dren (there were nine of them
altogether), Virginia McKenna is
pretty and alert as Henrietta, the
one who loves a guardsman;
Maxine Audley is cool as Arabel,
the quiet old maid, and Michael
Brill, Kenneth Fortescue and
others play the brothers well.
Susan Stephen gushes as the
cousin and Jean Andersen is ex
cellent as a maid. Even Flush,
the dog. is played to perfection
by a charming cocker spaniel.
“THE RAINMAKER."
The film adaptation of N.
Richard Nash’s stage play of the
same title, “The Rainmaker” has
a background located in the
cattle country and the time is a
period of severe drought. The
main action revolves around the
necessity, and difficulty, of mar
rying off an eligible young wom
an whose cause seems to be all
but hopeless.
Her father and two brothers
don’t leave a stone unturned in
their desperate effort to find her
a husband. This is the Situation
when a handsome fast-talking
stranger, obviously a con man,
arrives. Starbuck is his name and
rainmaking his current profes
sion. He offers, for SIOO, to pro
duce rain within 24 hours and
everyone promptly dubs him
crazy. He is hired, however.
Whatever his technique, du
ious or not, it eventually rains.
Not only that, but he manages
to convince our heroine that she
। is beautiful which, in turn, simi
larly convinces the reluctant
