Attending were: Sister M, Sigmunda, R. Polk, j.Schime1fening, S. Felker, M. Chote, C. Grohoski, R. Kozielski. The Fair Employment Practices Commis- sion is a service agency whose principal aim is to check discrimination in employment on grounds of race, creed, color, or national ori- gin. Its general method of settling disputes is through hearings and case study. Contrary to the general belief, the Com- mission is not a police agency seeking out the guilty party. It is rather a Civic organization which strives for equitable solution of difficul- ties which result principally from prejudice tor pte-juclgemend based on ignorance h the end-ptoduct being discrimination by denial of intrinsic rights to people, particularly in em- ployment.

Whatev from a premise of fai CASMIRETTE June. 1960 M 0 Sports Editor Lands Champ In the recent grade school swimming championships, Visi- tatiorVS well-halanced squad captured the girls, title for the fourth time in six years with a splendid total of 47.12 points. Gesu. took second with 34 and Guardian Angers third with 3112, but the most remarkable swimming team of all was the St. Casimiris entry which placed fourth with 20 points. CasimiHs had Laura Frost. The little 12-year-old seventh grader won two events and tied for first with Mary Alter of St. NIatthewk schoo1 in an- other to accumulate 20 points. XVhat makes Lauta,s perform- ance all the more scintillating was the fact that she was her school,s only entry. This nautical phenom, has already been tabbed as a poten- tial college star by such outstanding swimming coaches as Gus Stagei' of the ljniversity of Nlichigan and Clarence ipinkiel Pinkston of the Detroit Athletic club. Laura is a modest, well- mannered, pleasant little girl. And boy, can she swim! has little wonder that the experts forecast a brilliant future for this tiny miss who stands four foot-seven and weighs only 70 pounds. At 12 years of age she already has a roomful of trophies she has won in the past five years. Laura practices at least an hour a day, six days a week. She sti11 finds time to help her mother with Iight domes- tic chores and whatis more important is a B student. Laurafs father, Elmer, teaches swimming on Saturdays at American Turnefs Detroit club. He swam for 20 years as a member of the Ktonk Recreation team and excelled in the 1'50 and lOO-yard free style. He won several AAU titles in these 1 events. She hopes to break the 50-meter national butterfly record for 12-year-olds at the Water Wonderland swimming meet to e held at Brennan pools on August 13 - 14. Last Saturday Laura won the mile race for l6-year-olds-and-un- der in the Detroit Parks and Rec- reation meet held at St. Clair Rec- reation pool. She swam the distance in 25 minutes and 48 seconds, fa- bulous time for a 12-year-old. She also won the Recreation depart- ment,s all events crown this winter, winning the backstroke, breast- stroke, butterfly and free style events. Two weeks ago she shattered the national record by swimming the 100-yard butterfly in 1:11.7, het- tering the old mark by one-tenth second. She registered this pheno- menal mark in Flint at the Michi- gan Amateur Aquatics. It,s little wonder that the experts predict a bri11iant future for this youngster. She has already won more than 219 awards. These panelists- won $50 worth of books for the library UVIichigan Catholic May 26, 1960 uFranldy Speaking'i by Frank Guyottl
