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
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
as having imported a white servant. Common
Negroes worked together with common
whites. Intermarriage was frequent, often en-
ship bound for the West Indies.
It is significant that for some 40 years after
this, Negroes, numbering a few hundred
among a population of a few thousand, were
as,free, or.as unfree,, as their fellow whites in
the teuthem colonies. Most of the latter were
lemur:
indentured—serving out a period of time as
servants or laborers in exchange for their
passage to America or as punishment for
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
and whites or both groups could have been re-
duced to slavery. In the end, socio-economic
forces selected Negro slavery.
Negroes were strong, cheap, highly visible,
unprotected by strong governments and non-
Christian—an ideal source of labor for the
plantation system, which was coming into

being to meet the growing world demand for
rice and tobacco, and later cotton and »ugar.-y
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. * V-
“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, Vlr-
mininwiiagc ncic Blau ciiavim. iu<iwi, ,
ginia was the first to rule that Christian bap-

An intricate social «io legal—and psycho-
logical-structure designed to make the Negro
a separate and inferior being, and keep him
and his children slaves for life, was being
erected. «

Rome (AP) — At the ripe old polo shirt salesman, a knight of
age of 35, Italy’s Nicola Pietran-

eteraal Davis Cup player.

Sonic Booms
Studied By
Scientists
WASHINGTON (AP) - Sonic
booms from the proposed com-
mercial supersonic transport
ould cause psychological prob-
lems for some people, a panel of
scientists said today.
A subcommittee of the Nation-
al Academy of Science based its
conclusion on a study of sonic
booms caused by military air-
craft as they roar through the „f racing. The women refer to
sound barrier.
The subcommittee called the
outlook for the psychological ef-
fect of the giant commercial
transports, as now proposed,
‘discouraging.”
It urged intensified research
aimed at designing a commer-
cial SST that would generate
generally acceptable” sonic
boom levels in overland flight
It also urged stepped-up re-
search to better assess levels
acceptable to specialized groups
of people, like hospital patients.
Research also should be un-
dertaken, the subcommittee
said, on the effects of sonic
looms on sleep.
The subcommittee stressed
that the discouraging picture

“Jimmy thought she was

him as their adviser.
The filly was La Chunga, who
won five of 19 races in 1966 ar.d

“We were never in the red
with her,” added Mrs, Jones.
'She paid her own way. We re-
tired her when our adviser
thought she wasn’t good enough
to win stake*, and she's now in
Florida to be bred. So, she end-

in the first place.”

Swoon's Soh, out of Bear North,
the colt was acquired by private
transaction. Mrs. Hess, whose

director, joined the venture at
this point.

rome of the great ones that Cal-
umet had raced,” said Mrs.
Jones, whose husband and fath-
er-ip-law, the late Ben A. Jones,
trained Citation, Coaltown,
Whirlaway and others. "I think
that breeding is the most inter-
esting thing, but it’s fun to race
horses when you have a good
one.”
Cold won his tint start at Hi-
aleah, his third at Garden State
and was second in the Rancocas
Stakes next time out while the
winner set a track record, also
at Garden State.

Once you take a close look at this '58 Impala Custom Coupe, chances are you won’t
core what other people's 1969's are going to look like. But we’ll tell you anyway.
This particular model—with its formal “notchbdck” roof line—is the most popular
»
onr we build. Which means It's by far the most popular '68 anybody builds. Which
means (and this is an open secret around Detroit these days) some other cars are
going to look a lot like it In '69.
In fact, you’ll probably see'quite a few Chevrolet niceties on other people’s “new”
models. Things like disappearing windshield wipers and the protective vinyl insert
that runs along the side molding of this year's Impala.
Frankly, we're kind of used to being borrowed from this, way by now. Whether it's
styling, riding comfort or just plain painstaking workmanship, we know that putting
you first keeps us first. And we can't blame other carmakers for wanting to catch up.
But meantime the thing for you to do is drop down and have a talk with your
Chevrolet dealer now. Great as our styling looks on this '68 Impala, we can't promise
it's going to look so good on a '69 something else.
Happening new at your Chevrolet dealer's, a tremendous explosion
of extra buying power. Only the leader could make it Happen.
You've never seen savings like this on '68Chevrol#ts and
Chevelles. Sove on popylar V8 engines, automatic transmissions.
