James K. Frederick, who is an al umnus of the University of Minnesota has great Biblical knowledgo of the Bible and endeavored to mix his story with the 'Fishers of Men' showing what Peter, James, John, and Andrew did. "Day of Triumph7 brings new developments, new experience and a remarkable story of the life of Christ. It presents a clear understanding of the position of Pontius Pilate which shows that in spite of Pilate washing his hands of the innocent man,'his true temper was one of cowardice and self-seeking expediency. Another part of the ' picture showed that Judas Iscar ;inl had one of.his. hardest problems in selling nut for . thirty pieces?ofsilver and finally destroying him self.

One such personality interviewpel last week was . Louise Beavers | "or screen, radio and television fame. The famous star talked very freely about her work in the entertainment field, but was a bit shy about discussing her activit-1 ies in the civic and political arena. After prying into her political activities one would receive the impression' that she must have played an .important role in the election of the present President of the United f-ltates, although she would l>e entirely too modest h* : admit it. NO PARTY POLITICIAN She'spoke quite frankly, how-i ever, ahout her admiration for | t iv*r rrestucni mciiarti? rtixon. Ami it is obvious that her support for him helped charter the course to the White House for Ike. "Dick and Pat Nixon are personal friends of mine," said Miss Beavers. "I,ve known and admired Dick since his early years in Conress.'" The first kick-off for his campaign as senator was held at her house, she said. After that she together with Hedda Harper and Irene Dunn organized the "Women" for Nixon." "I gather then that you are a Republican," inquired one of the women-of-the press. "Political parties don't annoy me," she replied briefly. She went on to state that she definitely believes in supporting the right man no matter what party he might ' belong to. And, she added with em | phftsis, "I definiely prefer 'Dick' I Dixon." * She had a plesasant visit with I the vice president while in Wash- ' ington, and according to her hostess, Mrs. Jean Clore Jones, it wast?Just like "old home week with (no two Californians chatting ;..r 11.. ..i *. *i- ? ? ? n : KM uini|.\ ilDDUl me 1011\ S l)UCK home. ROUTKS THE REDS .Miss Heavers was remined of a statement recently made by Ed Sullivan regarding communists at tempts to dominate the motion pic urc industry. Speaking at a recent brotherhood luncheon sponsored by , the National Council of Negro Women, Sullivan said in effect that Negro actors had played an important role in barring "red infiltration from the guild. Sullivan was Quite correct'." replied Miss - Beavers, because ahe PAIjBU las one of eight or ten persons j vho signed an oath of loyalty to .his government She represented Negri) ac tors on the board of the ' screen Actors' Guild for nine .ears, she said. When it was discovered that .'ommunists . were attempting to ontrol the guild, several Negro u-tors drafted a letter of loyalty , tnd sent it to the Congress of the United States. She couldn't recall xll of lhn_si.ing?.i< Put i??ioemered that it was signed by Clarence Muse, the late Krnest Whitman who played opposit her as ' 'Hill* in the "Beulah" showf Bill; Walker, dimmie Logan and others. \ Hollywood is pretty well cleaned up of commies now, she said, since all actors and actresses must. sign a loyal pledge before signing contract. DOTTY PKSKKVKS OSCAR | ^ 1 - When asked what she . thought I of Tiuroihy Dandridge's nominate iom for an Academy Award, she replied quickly, "I think it is terriffie." Dorothysdid a perfectly \vonderful job in Carmen Jones apd L think she deserves an Oscar. 1 certainly hope?she gets dt and I am going to vote for her." Although Dorothy gave a "beau tifnl performance" she felt that the winner might be a toss-up" between Dotty and Judy Garland. No Negro has received an Oscar -since Hattie Daniels was honored for her supporting role in "Gone With The Wind." It is high time for another Negro actor to be considered W hen asked her opinion on the fairness of selectine the acndcmv award winners, she replied that she felt they were chosen by. a perfectly fair and democratic method.
