Wallace Called
Most Dangerous
U.S. Racist
CHICAGO--The assassina-
tion attempt on the life of Ala-
bama Gov. George Wallace has
cast him In a martyr’s role and
projected him Into “America's
most dangerous racist," de-
clares a leading black maga-
zine In its July Issue.
Recounting the long antl-Ne-
gro record of the Southern
Presidential candidate, Sepia
magazine declares: "A com-
bination of circumstances have
projected Wallace into the most
dangerous racist ever to
emerge nationally In politics."
While describing the shooting
of Wallace as “moronic” and
“reprehensible," an article by
Doris Black in the magazine
based in Fort Worth, Texas,
notes that the attempt on his
life has “enabled him to win a
wider following for his thinking
than ever believed possible In
America. Wallace has been able
to rally the kind of support
never believed conceivable for
a man of his background."
With top presidential nom-
inees such as Sen. Hubert Hum-
phrey now willing to accept
Wallace on their tickets, Sepia
magazine declares: “Too many
politicians listen to and are
Influenced by what Wallace says
even on racial matters. ”
“Wallace Is no different than
in his early days when he dem-
onstrated he could ‘out-nlgguh’
anyone,” Sepia points out. The
monthly magazine notes that
during the 1972 campaign he has
referred to black Senator Ed-
ward W. Brooke of Massachus-
etts as the “nigger* Senator.
When defeated by Senator Hum-
phrey In Indiana, Wallace said
he was defeated by “that big
nigger vote."
In its article Sepia reviews
In detail Wallace’s rise to
prominence based on his ag-
gressive anti-black actions, In-
cluding a threat once In Ala-
bama against black candidates
In which Wallace declared:
“Wouldn't one of them nigguhs
last 30 minutes If he was to have
the misfortune of gettln’ elect-
ed.”
Wallace has boasted, “Let
them call me a racist. It don’t
make no difference,” and an-
other time stated, “I’m gonna
make race the basis of politics
In this country. ■
Sepia concludes: “Wallace Is
more polished and more cocky,
more sweet-talking In his words
but more ambitious than ever.
For black Americans the omens
are ominous,’ as the most dan-
gerous racist of our times gain
respectabllty and cheers.”
And Now
Comes the
Big Splash
The apiaah cuinea inis
month when the vanguard of
more than 100 million Amer-
icans take to the water for fun
and good health, to swim, sail,
canoe, or cruise around In
motor-powered boats.
The fun can be better, the
American Red Cross says, If
all followers or aquatic sports
observe safety precautions.
This applies to people who are
near the water as well as those
in and on It, according to Sy
Lee, director of safety pro-
grams at Bexar countv
Cross, “because 60 per cent of
the people who drown each year
fall Into the water accidentally.
“They could have saved them-
selves," he said, “If they had
been able to swim, because al-
most Invariably safety--In the
form of a dock, a boat or the
shore--was nearby.”
The Red Cross has been
teaching swimming and life sav-
ing since 1914. In the nearly 60
years since then, its instruc-
tion and that of other organiza-
tions has resulted in a reduc-
tion of 1,700 In the number of
annual drownlngs—In an era
when the total population of the
country has more than doubled
and participants In water sports
have multiplied more than ten-
fold. The drowning rate per
100,000 of population has fallen
from 10.2 to 3.6.
"Although the 7,300 persons
who drown each year are few-
er than the number of 80 years
ago, It is still too high," Lee
said. “With normal cautions It
could be reduced greatly.
“The first water safety pre-
cax+lr? <• *n Uam to swim.”
he continued. “If you can swim,
learn to swim better. Your
local Red Cross chapter can
tell you when Its swimming
classes are scheduled.
“Next, and this Is aimed
primarily at parents, watch
small children most carefully
around the water, even In su-
pervised and guarded areas and
even at shallow wading pools.
Mere seconds of Inattention can
be fatal.”
Other swimming safety tips
are these. Lee said:
“Always swim with a com-
panion, never alone. On a long
distance swim, arrange for
someone In a boat to accom-
pany you.
“Swim In a safe place. The
presence of lifeguards usually
Indicates the area Is safe for
swimming. Stay away from the
area immediately In front of a
diving board and do not swim
near piers or pilings.
“Before diving, make sure
the water Is deep enough and
there are no hidden objects Mirh
as submerged rocks. In pools,
look for depth markings before
diving.
"If you have not been swim-
ming since last summer, take It
easy at first. Know your limita-
tions and stay within them.
“Walt at least an nour after
eating before swimming, anddo
not swim when overtired or
overheated.
“Make certain that reaching
poles, buoys, and similar res-
cue equipment are readily
available at your swimming
area.
"Don’t depend on an Inflated
lnnertube or toy to hold ycu up.
It may slip from under you.
"Whenever a storm ap -
proaches, get out of the water--
It is a conductor of lightning.”

ing, which begins at the YWCA

uate with Red Cross certifica-

MemphisProject
To Help
Jobless Women
MEMPHIS—Special Job In-
formation and placement serv-
ices will be available to black
women and others here who
are unemployed or underem-
ployed.
These services will be made
available under a $4,000 one-
year grant which Is funded un-
der the Manpower Development
and Training act and adminis-
tered by the Manpower admin-
istration of the United States
Department of Labor, sponsor
of the project Is the Memphis
and Shelby County Health and
Welfare Planning council.
“Although barriers to em-
ployment of women are still In
existence, we have high hopes
that the resources and com-
munity spirit of Memphis will
be enough to overcome them,”
said Elizabeth D. Koontz, dep-
uty assistant secretary of la-
bor and director of the Women’s
bureau, which will monitor the
project. “The unusually strong
sujtport by volunteer groups
makes us feel confident that
measurable progress will be
made.”
One of the major alms of the
project Is to find work for wo-
men who lost their Jobs when a
large electronics plant shut
down last year. Some 1,000 of
these women are still unem-
ployed and about 650 of them
are black.
A recent government analy-
sis of black employment pat-
terns in Memphis found that
black women, despite some
gains In the late 1960’s, are
disproportionately concentrat-
ed in unskilled and semi-skill-
ed Jobs. The new project will
seek to ease the condition in-
hibiting employment not only of
tne women displaced by tne plant
closing, but all Memphis wo-
men. It will try to Influence
employers—public as well as
private--unions, and trade as-
sociations to let more women
enter Jobs not traditionally open
to them.
The project will be run by
two professional staff mem-
bers, a secretary, and a corps
of trained volunteers.
The volunteer workers will
be recruited from such com-
munity organizations as the
YWCA, Urban league, cham-
ber of commerce, unions, and
women’s service and profes-
sional clubs.
Volunteers will be trained in
community resources Including
social aid and vocational serv-
ices by the Memphis Health and
Welfare council and other agen-
cies such as the Memphis board
of education.
The project will also refer
women to community agencies
providing supportive services
to supplement the manpower
services customarily provided
by the Memphis office of the
Tennessee Department of Em-
ployment Security.
T7ie Tennessee Department
of Emnlnvmant S«nir<tv whtrh
has already mounted a con-
siderable effort to assist the
workers laid off by the elec-
tronics plant, will provide the
new project with consultative
assistance.
A program that has been re-
sponsible for “water-proofing”
America over the last 50 years
by sending experts In first aid
and water safety Into virtually
every community--the Amer-
ican Red Cross National Aqua-
tic schools--will enter Its sec-
ond half-century this summer.
Since their Inception as “Life
Saving Institutes* In 1922, they
have provided advanced safety
training to more than 106,000
men and women. These In turn
have trained thousands of other
volunteer Instructors and have
given basic Instruction In first
aid, water safety, and small
craft safety to millions of their
neighbors.
All told, the Red Cross has
issued nearly 50 million certi-
ficates to Individuals who com-
pleted Its water safety and boat
and canoe safety courses and
nearly 36 million for comple-
tion oi courses in iirst aid.
Other millions have received
some Information on safety
practices through newspapers,
magazines, television and ra-
dio, and through film showings
and Informal demonstrations.
“It Is impossible to overes-
timate the value of this train-
ing In terms of prevention of
accidents and In lessening of
the effects of accidents when
they have occurred,” said Sy
Lee, director of safety pro-
grams at the Bexar county Red
Cross. “It Is equally Impossible
to calculate the number of lives
that have been saved since the
Red Cross begin Its safety ed-
ucation program In 1910 with
the Inauguration of first aid
courses, but we know It has
been many thousands.
“Aquatic school graduates
have trained millions of other
Americans In water safety and
first aid over the years. *
Soon after 1922 the "Insti-
tutes” became “national aquatic
schools.” Because of the cur-
rent emphasis on first aid,
stimulated by the large Red
Cross role In training workers
In business and Industry In first
aid to meet requirements of the
1970 Federal Occupational
Safety and Health act, the
schools are now called “Na-
tional Aquatic and First Aid
schools" and “National Small
Craft schools.” A total of 27
will be conducted this summer.
Since the first year, when there
were two one-week Institutes
at Long Pond, Mass., 995
schools have been held In all
parts of the country.
The early years of the aqua-
tic schools were dominated by
the know-how of Commodore
Wilbert E. Longfellow, founder
In 1914 of the Red Cross water
safety education program.
Through the years, many top
swimming stars were on their
faculties. In 1926 alone, four
Olympic title winners--Johnny
Weissmuller, Bob Skelton, Arne
Borg, and Ethel Lackey--were
Instructors at Deleven Institute,
Lake Dawn, Wls.; Thelma
Payne, national diving champ-
ion and Olympic title winner,
was a volunteer Instructor at
Seaside, Ore.; and the school
of romp Brevard N C had the
volunteer services of Pete Des-
jardir., national high diving and
springboard champion.
In 1953, Clint Eastwood, the
future film and television star,
was one of the students at the
school at Beaver Lake, Wash.
Many graduates of the schools
went on to join the safety pro-
grams staffs of Red Cross chap-
ters on the national organiza-
tion. Some made safety educa-
tion their careers; others later
transferred to positions In other
Red Cross programs. The ma-
jority of the 106,000, however,
returned to their home com-
munities to serve as volunteers
by teaching safety to their fel-
low townsmen.
Over the years, changes In
the aquatic schools have been
dictated either by needs for
expansion In a rapidly growing
country or by new refinements
and developments In safety and
teaching techniques. In 1940,
courses In home and farm ac-
cident prevention were added
to curricula. After the war
these were discontinued as sep-
arate courses when their con-
tent was absorbed Into first aid
courses.
