TWELVE MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Friday. July 6. 1956 Effort To Change NEA Resolution on Integration Ended Portland !U.Ri All efforts lo change a National Education as sociation resolution on integra tion in schools have apparently been given up. The 31 resolutions released by the resolutions committee yester day made no concession to de mands by a number of Negro and white members in a Tues day hearing that the organiza tion condemn the dismissal of teachers for racial or religious reasons, and brand such discrim ination as violation of academic freedom. No Oppoiition Seen No organized opposition ap peared likely today when the resolutions committee makes its recommendations on the con vention floor here. Today was the last day of the educators' convention, which opened in Portland last Sunday. The present resolution calls integration simply a "process which concern; every state and territory in our nation" and urges "all citizens to approach this matter . . . with the spirit of fair play and good will . . ." The resolutions committee turned thumbs down yesterday on a resolution proposed by the New York delegation that the NEA cancel its teacher tours to Arab countries as long as those countries bar persons of Jewish descent.

So, if you : tan think of something different that will interest camera lans and musical enthusiasts, you should cjo fine financially. I have never been a photographic fan. Am very fond of music but play r.o instrument. I think 1 have been missing something. Guess I'll buy a camera and a player piano. Instead of the player piano, I might get a hurdy-gur-ciy. One of those instruments used by the street musicians of the yesteryear. In addition to amusing myself, I could throw a party at. which I played my street organ for dancing. I might even rent a monkey for the oc casion. I could play such tunes as "Sidewalks of New York," "Sweet Rosie O'Grady," "Bi cycle Built For Two," "Every Niht In Central Park," "She Was Happy 'Til She Met You," 'We All W ent Home In A Cab" and "Tommy Make Room For Your Uncle." And so on. Remembering What is your earliest memory? How tar back can tne average person remember? That ques tion was being discussed at a parly the other night.

WATSON Shady Cove-Trail The cor respondent in talking with peo ple in this area finds that while everyone looks forward to the 4th with great anticipation it is celebrated in various ways. For some it is a quiet day of rest at home from the regular grind of the workday week and coming in the middle of the week gives Dad a chance to catch up not only on his relaxation but also some of those odd jobs around the house that his wife has stacked up for him. Some cele brate with a dance, picnic or party the night before knowing that the 4th can be a sleep-in morning. Others take to the beach, mountains, drag out the old fish ing pole and hie to the nearest mountain stream or the good old Rogue, take a family picnic and go to Casey state park, or many of the other pleasant picnic grounds in the area. For others the 4th means the start of a long vacation trip planned to take in the extra holiday and others welcome relatives or friends as guests in their homes.
