Youngster fells what it's
like at New Orleans school
EDITORS NOTE: The follow,
log dispatch was written exclu
sively for United Press Interna
tional by a fifth grade student
t Integrated William Frantx
Elementary School After 11-year-old
Michael McKinley
wrote the dispatch, he learned
that his family was moving out
of the Frantx district because
af economic pressures. Michael
sniffled and seid "I don't feel
so good about leaving Frantx,
But I know I have to do it.
It's got te be done."-
By Michael Delancy McKinley
Written For UPI
NEW ORLEANS (UPI The
way' I feel about going to Wil
liam Franlz school, I know I had
rather go to Frantz school than
to any other school In New Orleans.-
I like to go to Frantz school
because it's clean, the teachers
and pupils are so nice Most o(
Uie people are nice. I
Sometimes pupils at Frantz
school have called me names anil
have done many more unruly
tilings but I still like It. The pu
pils I'm talking about here are
the people who stand out in the
crowd. They used to go to school
with mo before this integration
business started. Most of them
ate out there with their mothers,
but there are some kids alone.
When people take their children
out of school they holler "yea."
But Uicy boo and throw rotten
eggs al us because we go to
school.
Woman Throws Egg
Of course, wo have had one egg
thrown at us. I don't want to put
the name of the lady whose car
we were in. We were driving
along by the corner by the school
and a lady comes up real close
to the car and throws an egg. It
hit -the side of Uie car but it
didn't hit. any of us. 1 think that
was Wednesday.
Some of Uio children that yell
at me now used to be my friends.
I don't feel good at all about it.
I think that I'm right and they're
wrong. Sometimes 1 feel like I
don't want' to go back to Frantz,
but most of Uie time 1 feel I do
' want to go to Frantz. After they
throw eggs and yell at me I feel
like I don't want to go back, but
after I think about it 1 don't feel
to bad about it,
I think I know what they're
throwing the eggs and stuff for.
Because they just think I'm going
to school for the sake, of going
with tho colored people or tho
niggers, as they'd say. I'm going
to school to got a good education.
I've seen little Ruby before in
school, but I haven't talked to
her, I don't think I'd know her
by sight if she were standing out
on the street.
Doesn't Mind Integration
it doesn't bother mo to go to
school with a colored child.
Before Integration business
started, my sister and I and Uio
children who live upstairs from
us would walk to school together
and they didn't bother us. Now
we smuggle up inl a car and
secretly drive to school.
We get up there and a crabby
old policeman would stop us and
say "you have got to go that way,
lady."
My mother would sny "We're
taking our children to school. And
we would like to go this, way."
Then we'd drive on a little ways,
and another policeman would stop
us, and sny "You can't go this
way."
She says "We're taking our
children to school." And he says
"Go on."
And that's about It unlil we get
to school, and Uicn we just get
out of Uie car and walk In. They j
don't do anything to us now. They
don't even holler boo. Of course
photographers take pictures and
everything.
, Some of Uiem aren't photogra
phers. They Just come out there
to take pictures and look at Uiem.
When we get into Uie ecliool
" . ' -
the marshal comes up and greets
us. He says "four more," or how
many of us there are, to Miss
Dunn. Miss Dunn says wait by
tho door of her room because she
wants the grades that we are in,
and puts it on Uie board.
We get in Uiere and we draw
pictures while they are waiting to
see if any more children come.
Only Pupil In Class
Then Mrs. Guenther, my teach
er, comes in and gets me. Then
we go up to the room and start
with arithmetic. There are no
other children, in Uie room
with me.
We do ariUimetic for about an
hour, then we go to spelling.
Then we do English, then geogra
phy. Since this integration busi
ness started we haven't had his
tory. After English we go to lunch.
All of us sit together during
lunch hour. Then we go to tho
basement and play bowling,
bouncing Uie ball, and dodgcball,
and sometimes we piny other
games like Monopoly. Huby often
comes down and stands Uiero
Willi the marshal. She hardly
ever plays witli us because she !
is scared and Umid.
It feels sort of funny to have
such an empty school. Even
Uiough It is a lot of fun. It feels
funny because Uiere are eclioes
and not so much talk. It's fun
Uiough because regularly we us
ually play outside but since inte
gration business has started we
got to play different ways.
It is okay to be Uie only child
in Uie room, but it isn't so much
fun Uicre's nobody to talk to but
Uie teacher. The teacher hardly
ever talks to me unless we re
taking timetable tests or some
Uiing like thnt. I like ' Mrs.
Guenther because she is so nice
and she takes a lot of time wiUi
me because I'm Uie only student
in Uie room.
When school Is out, we get a
lot of booing and silly words.
Really stupid. We get some
tilings thrown at us. Tho police
escort us home, and Molher or
Daddy speak to Uio policemen.
Somebody night before last
while we went to prayer meeting
broke a bunch of windows in our
house. Just after we got home
from school Uie first day of the
Integration business Uiere was a
crowd out Uirowing rocks and
yelling. Of course they didn't
break any windows Uicn, they
were just Uirowing at the
screens.
I feel very sorry for people
who do this because Uiey are lia
ble to be put in jail or something
like Uiat.

Fish research
study planned
Special to Tho Bulletin
MADRAS An appropriation of
$39,573 to finance continued fish-
passage research activities at Pel
ion dam on the Deschutes river
has been auUiorized by Portland
General Electric company.
Purpose of the study, aliout to
begin its third year, is to take ad
vantage of Pelton's extensive fish
passage facilities. The field pro
gram is being conducted by state
fishery agencies, tile U.S. Fish
and Wildlife service and PGE.
Biologists belive that results of
the research will contribute sub
stantially to Uie solution of mov
ing migratory fish around other
hydroelectric projects.
Cost of the program, now total
ing $115,854, is borne by PGE.
Research emphasis Is being
placed on the efficiency of Pel
ton's artificial outlet for down
stream migrants. "Because of this
facility, fishery scientists for Uie
first time have been able to study
effectively migration schedules
and habits of young and romous
fingerhngs on the Deschutes Riv-
er. However, all phases of the
Pelton fish proteclion system, in
chiding its Uiree-mile-long
ladder, are being studied.

Stock market registers its
best gain in over month
By Henry J, Bechtold
UPI Staff Writer
NEW YORK (UPI) The stock
market registered its best gain
In more Uian a month Uiis week
in what many brokers see as Uio
start of a year-end rally.
The brokers cited the switch in
Interest from many of the recent
trading favorites such as restaur
ant chains, diet food companies
and aircrafts, to Uie more cyclical
heavy industry slocks such as
sleels and chemicals.
The bullish segment of the trad
ing community also was encour
aged by Uio advance In railroad
issues on Friday in Uie face of
declining rarlondings. The failure
of the rails to support Uie upward
move on the part of Uieir indus
trial counterpart In the preceding
Uirec sessions had been seen as
a sign of technical weakness.
The change In Investor interest
was attributed to a let-up in the
recent heavy tax selling pace, and
a 'pick-up in the reinvestment of
funds derived from these trans
actions. The market also responded to
a host of individual corporate an
nouncements. Including new prod
ucts, slock splits, dividends, good
sales reports and forecasts.
Statisticians were encouraged by
the iump above the 600 level by
the Dow-Jones industrial average:
by the number of new 1960 highs
on Thursday and Friday oulnum
boring the new lows for the first
time in about three weeks and
by the Dow-Jones utility average
reaching a 30-year high.
The extent of any advance or
decline, however, still depends
en a definite pattern being set in
I our presently stagnated economy.
The biggest disappointment in
the business world this week was
! the failure of consumers to go on
a Christmas buying binge. Sales
did pick up a bit from Uie preced
ing week as colder weather in
some areas stimulated buying
hiit volume ran substantially be
low a year ago.
About half of 100 members at
tending the convention of the Na
tional Association of Manufactur
ers here said they believed their
companies would do better in 1961,
but only II per cent definitely ex
pected poorer business next year.
Sales rose substantially on the
advance; this week, amounting to
18 314.785 shares, or an average of
,1.M?.S37 shares per d.w. It was
the most active week since mid
May and gate further encourage- j

Environmental industry has been
by-product of electronics age
By Htnry J. Btchtold
UPI Staff Writer
NEW YORK (UPD The envir
onmental industry has been a suc
cessful by-products of Uie elec
tronic, jet and space age.
This industry bring down to Uie
earth Uie cold, empty reaches of
outer space to help guarantee
that rockets and satellites wUl en
dure Uie -fantastic strains of or
bital travel.
Simulation of space and other
physical environments - has blos
somed into a $150 million indus
try.
Rockets, missiles and superson
ic aircraft must survive great ex
tremes of temperature, altitude,
shock, gravity pull and other con
dilions, such as exposure to me
teorite dust, radiation and the
sun.
Pre- testing helps make sure
they will, according to Uie head
of Tenney Engineering, Inc., a
leading manufacturer of environ
mental test equipment.
Tests Important'
We cannot afford not to test,
President Monroe Seligman staU
cd, because the failure of a Uny
component can ruin a space shot
costing millions of dollars.
In addition to its importance
in the electronics, jet and space
fields, environmental testing also
is being used on hundreds of con
sumer products: Automobiles
(weather), textiles (fungus and
moisture), foodstuffs (freezing),
and air conditioners (heat and
cold), among others.
Environmental manufacturers
simulate climatic conditions in
cabinets of all shapes and sizes.
One of the biggest of its kind was
built by Tenney for McDonnell
Aircraft Corp., St. Louis. It stands
18 by 18 by 24 feet, has a temper
ature range of minus 100 degrees
to plus 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit
an can simulate aiuiuaes oi
nearly 30 miles.
Low Pressures Produced
In other types of chambers, en
vironmental engineers produce
low pressures equivalent to that
found at an altitude of a million
feet where a thimbleful of air
makes a difference. 1
Seligmdn noted that the envir
onmental industry also produces
shakers to sea how components
react to extreme vibraUon, and
special centrifuges to simulate
gravity pull.
The only environment not yet
reproduced for practical applica
tion on earth is weightlessness.
But everything else, Including or
dinary sunshine and rain can be
simulated, Seligman declared.
U.S. Army ordnance has a
23-foot high Tenney sunshine, and
rainfall chamber at its Frankfort
arsenal in Philadelphia, which can
ment to the bullish forces. Last ,
week sales totaled 16,808,-1
950 shares, or 3,361,790 shares
daily.
Sperry Rand, which announced
some new computers, was the
most active issue on sales of 278,
400 shares. It closed at 231, up
4'4 points on the week. Chock
Full "Nuts, Standard Oil (New
Jersey), American Motors and
Boeing rounded out Uie top five.
The Dow-Jones averages at the
close Friday showed 30 industrials
at 610.90 up 14.90 points 20 rails
127.77 off 0.35; 15 uliliUes 97.02
up 1.64, and the highest since
98.01 on June 6. 1930; and 65
slocks 202.57 up 3.36.
Of Uie total 1.44!) issues traded
this week. 886 advanced. 388 de
clined and 175 held unchanged.
New 1960 highs were set by 90
issues and new lows by 110.

MADRAS Voters in the North
Unit Irrigation district in Jeffer
son county will go to Uie polls to
elect two additional members to
Uie district board of directors in a
special elecUon to be held Tues
day, January 10, 1961, according
to Darrell Maxwell, secretary-
manager.
The special election was called
by the present three-man board
after a straw vote taken during
the November general election
showed Uiat North Unit water
users were overwhelmingly in fa
vor of expanding Uie board to five
members. Maxwell said that Uie
straw vote ran better Uian five
to one in favor of Uie move.
State law stipulates Uiat in Uie
first election Uie two addiUonal
board members can be elected at
large from Uie district, Maxwell
said.
The law also stipulates, he said,
that the district be broken up into
five divisions as soon as possible
and Uiat at all subsequent elec
tions a director be elected from
each division.
The board will probably take
action to form the five divisions

It is a notable fact that multitudes of the most thoughtful of
men and women are aware of the necessity to worship something on
the peril of being nothing. In the story of the Christian Faith it is wor
thy to note that besides the unlearned shepherds at the first Christmas
there were also wise men who traveled far to worship The Child, born
to be King. These were not sentimental, wishful thinkers, anymore than
was Paul the Apostle, who followed the unlearned disciples.
If we do not worship God we worship something less worthy.
It may be a political ideology or an economic cult that promises to
make us all rich. Wise men and women know that when we turn frpm
the true God, we worship half or false gods.
When we attend the Church of our faith and hold fast to its
teachings we are safe from following false gods. That is why it is just
good, sound reasoning to worship God within the sacred confines of
His House, where it is easiest to reach him. , ,
