THE CLINTON CHHONICLB
Clinton, 8. C H Th\ir«day, December 1, I960
,Girard Case
One of the most significant court
casts in U. S. history may soon be de-
cfcf|8^Jqrth* Supreme Court. Girard
College was named after a French sail*
or jirho came to the United States
and made a fortune. He died in 1881
and left a will which established a col
lege for “poor, white orphans, between
the ages of six and ten years.”
Some years ago the N.A.A.C.P. at
tempted to break the terms of the will,
contending terms of admission consti
tuted illegal discrimination. The col
lege won the first court test. Another
approach (through a federal court)
Was utilized and a federal judge re
cently ruled that the Philadelphia col
lege must admit Negro students.
The case is to be appealed to the U.
S. Supreme Court and the decision may
affect every private school in the na
tion. For, in effect, what a federal
judge ruled recently was that the pri
vate college cannot discriminate in ad
missions.
Among the questions the case
brings to a head is whet er wills can
be broken. Can one still select his ben
eficiary or beneficiaries? Can one, in
other words, discriminate in his will—
as has been the universal practice.
Can the courts break the terms fif
the will of one who intentionally and
specifically designated who should be
admitted to the college his bequest
founded? If they can force admission
of another race, can they not force ad
mission of females? It seems to many
that federal regulation of. individuals
and private organizations has already
been extended to considerable lengths

All students can’t be geniuses. And
even if (hey could, it wouldn’t always
be .e.vldeht'early (e. i. Einstein and
Churchill)..An average student should
make average grades. '

THE AMERICAN WAT
‘It Won’t Happen’
v.th' Jffelt^ing about accidents that kill
bthtfr.People, we are apt to dismiss the
matter with a careless, “It won’t hap
pen tomer”
Maybe not, but just the same, it
might be a good idea to remember that
the-vtettnv of the fatal accident was
just-as confident before the accident
and as irrevocably dead afterward.

Beware of Greeks Bearing Gifts
During the Trojan W r ar, the Greeks besieged
Troy for 10 years without success. Finally they
built a huge wooden horse and hid soldiers in it.
Then they boarded their ships and sailed away.
The Trojans, thinking the horse was a peace
offering, decided to drag it inside the walls of
the city and celebrate. / But Laocoon, their priest.
warned them not to, saying, “I fear the Greeks,
even when they bear gifts.”
The wooden horse was dragged into the city.
That night the soldiers slipped out and opened
the gates to the Greeks, who had returned under
the cover of darkness.
Laocoon’s words, paraphrased as “beware
Greeks bearing gifts,” became common admoni
tion to be on guard against treachery.
