The story of the Negro in United States his-
tory began in Jamestown, Va., in 1619, when
an unnamed Dutch man of war unloaded a
cargo of "20 negars" hijacked from a Spanish
ship bound for the West Indies.

as free, or as unfree, as their fellow whites in lo™n selected Negro slavery,
the Southern colonies. Most of the latter were Negroes were strong, cheap, highly visible,
indentured-serving out a period of time as unprotected by strong governments and non-
servants or laborers in exchange for their Christian—an ideal source of labor for the
passage to America1 or as punishment for plantation system, which was coming into
crimes committed in England. For example,
270 Scottish rebels against the Crown were
transported and sold in Boston in 1652.
There was no official discrimination, no
racial bars to landowning or voting. Negroes
owned other Negroes. At least one is recorded
as having imported a white servant. Common
Negroes worked together with common
whites. Intermarriage was frequent, often en-
couraged by their masters.
The racial situation at this juncture was
fluid, notes Lerone Bennett Jr. It contained
the seeds of several alternatives. Indentured
servitude could have continued for Negroes
being to meet the growing world demand for
rice and tobacco, and later cotton and sugar.
The trend to slavery was soon buttressed by
law. Oddly enough, it was a Northern colony,
Massachusetts, that first gave slavery legal
sanction—in 1641.
“I doe not see how wee can thrive untill wee
gett into a stock of slaves sufficient to doe all
our busines, for our children’s children will
hardly see this great continent filled with
people," wrote the brother-in-law of Gov. John
Winthrop. „
A host of laws against miscegenation and
intermarriage were also enacted. In 1667, Vir-
ginia was the first to rule that Christian bap-
tism did not alter the status of a ylave.

Italy’s Davis Cup Star
| Is 35, But Going Strong
Rome (AP) -‘At the ripe old polo shirt salesman, a knight of
age of 35, Italy's Nicola Pietran-
gelt has become the seemingly
eternal Davis Cup player.
In a country where cycling
and soccer stars rise and fade
fast, he has been going strong
for the past 15 years. Last week
he played his 151st Davis Cup
match for what must be a world
record. ,
In the process, Pietrangeli
lowered his team into the Euro-
pean Zone final against Spain.
In between Davis Cup match-
es and tournaments, Pietrangeli
has become a fashion-trend set-
ter, a radio commentator, a
Italy’s highest order, a tennis
teacher and somewhat of a na-
tional hem.
But he has steadily resisted
turning professional, mostly be-
cause of strong pressure from
the Italian Federation, which of-
fered him a teacher’s job.
"What I can’t understand Is
that people will not accept that I
i.st a match," Pietrangeli com-
plains. "After all, I arh getting
olden and my legs do bother, me
sometimes."
For once, Italian fans were le-
nient last week when Pic-trange-

Davis cup match a_

nament match, I would bav
dropped out. My muscles wer
completely unresponsive," he
explained after the match. Ear-
ner however, he had won his
other singles in four easy sets
and led the doubles team to vic-
tory for a 3-2 triumph over Rus-
sia.
Pietrangeli^ has won more
than half of his Davis Cup
games, since he joined the team
at age 20.
In 1959 and 1962 he brought It-
aly to the challenge round
against Australia. He Was the
only Italian to win one game out
of the ten played.
Pietrangeli began playing ten-
nis early. He was bom in Tunis,
but bis father soon came to ro-
ly.
One of his only weaknesses is
his impatience. He often shouts —
at spectators or at the referee
when a point is in dispute.
Off the field, Pietrangeli dit-
a scintillating personality.
He dresses" elegantly, hobnobs
with actors, actresses and the
Rome based jet set
Pietrangeli says he will rc-
mlin at the service of‘Italy's
Tennis Federation as long as
feels he is needed.
’ His greatest concern it train-
ing a crop of young players to
replace him And Australian
bom Martin Mulligan, who now
plays for Italy in the Davis Cup.
"I have run after enough rub-
balls for Italy," he says.

Women Believe Breeding Horses Keeps Them Young
