FEATURES EXCLUSIVE FILTER-STREAM SYSTEM
Whirls away toughest stains...
eliminates scraping or pre-rinsing!
This powerful Filter-Stream washing action
constantly filters the wash and rinse water
to remove food particles and automatically
flush them down the drain. Washes every
thing cleaner because the non-clogging nozzles
in the revolving spray arm hurl powerful
streams of filtered cleansing water over every
plate, glass or utensil . . . removes even stub
born egg yolk and lipstick stains.
2 AUTOMATIC CYCIES
Just one simple-to-set control gives you the
exact dishwashing cycle you want. For
heavily-soiled dishes dial normal; for
lightly-soiled dishes dial short cycle. And
for rinsing and drying "seldom-used" dishes,
dial Ready-Rinse. There's even a separate
setting for plate warming if you prefer.

MICHAEL DELANCY

Written lor UPI
New Orleans-iBFE-The way
I feel about going io William
Frantz 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 teach
ers and pupils are so nice.
Most of Use people are nice.
Sometimes pupils at Frante
school have called me names
and have done many more
unruly things but I still like
it. The pupils I'm talking
about here are the people who
stand out in the crowd. They
used to go to school with me
before this integration busi
ness started. Most o them are
out Were with their mothers,
but there are some kids alone.
When peopie take their
children out of school they
holler "yea." But they boo
and throw rotten eggs at us
because we go to schooi.
Woman Throws Egg
Of course, we have had one
egg thrown at us. I don't
want to put fee name of the
lady whose car we were in.
We were driving along by
the corner of the schooi and
lady comes up real close
to the car and throws an egg.
It hit the side of the car but
it didn't hit any of us, I think
that was Wednesday,
Some of the 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 I feel like 1 don't
want to go back to Frantz.
but most of. the lime I feel
I do want to go to Frantz.
After they throw eggs and
yeil at me I feel like I don't
want to go back, but after I
think about it I 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 colored
people-or the niggers, as
they'd say. I'm going to school
to get a good education,
I've seen iittie Ruby before
in school, but I haven't talked
to her. I don't think I'd know
her by sight if she were stand
ing out on the street.
Doesn't Mind Integration
It doesn't bother me to go
to school with a colored child.
Before integration business
started, my sister and I and
the children who live upstairs
from us would walk to school
together and they didn't both
er us. Now we smuggle up
into a car and secretly drive
to schooi.
We get up there and a crab
by old policeman would slop
us and say "you have got to
go that way, lady."
My mother would say
"We're taking our children to
schooi. And we would like
to go this way." Then we'd
drive on a iittie ways, and
another policeman would stop
us, and say You can t go
this way."
She says "We're taking our
children to school." And he
savs "Go on."
And that's about it until we
eel to school, and then we
just get out of the car and
wai t in. Tney don t ao any
thing to us now. They don't
even holler boo. Of course
photographers take pictures
and everything, -
Some o them aren't pho
tographers. They just come
out there to take pictures and
look at them.
When we get into the schooi
the marshal comes up and
greets us. He says "four
more," or how many of
there are, to Miss Dunn. Miss
Dunn says wait by the door
of her room because she
wants the grades that we are
in, and puts it on the board
We get in there and we
draw pictures while they are
waiting to see if any more
children come.
Only PupH in Claw
Then Mrs. Guenther, my
teacher, comes in and gets
me. Then we go up to the
room and start with arith
metic. There are no other
children in the room with me.
We do arithmetic for about
an hour, then we go to spell
ing. Then we do English, then
geography. Since this integra
tion business started we
haven't had history.
After English we go to
lunch. Ail of us sit together
during lunch hour. Then we
go to the basement and play
bowling, bouncing the ball,
and dodgeball, and sometimes
we play other games like
Monopoly. Ruby often comes
down and stands there with
the marshal. She hardly ever
plays with us because she is
seared and timid.
H feels sort of funny to
have such an empty school.
Even though it is a lot of fun.
It feels funny because there
are echoes and not so much
talk. It's fun, though because
regularly we usually play
outside but since integration
business has started we get
to play different ways.
Not Much Fun
It is okay to be the only
child in the room, but it isn't
so much fun there's nobody
to talk to but the teacher.
The teacher hardly ever talks
to me unless we're taking
timetable tests or something
like that, I like Mrs. Guen
ther because she is so nice
and she takes a lot of time
with me because I'm the only
student in the room.
When school is out, we get;
