Why should we celebrate the Bicentennial? Freedom didn't mean much to our people two hundred years ago. Most of them were slaves. America’s Bicentennial is a story of rebels dedicated to the ideal of freedom. In 1776, enough of them were willing to fight and die for what they believed in to make the dream of independence and freedom a reality in 1876 -and in 1976. The same Freedom Trail that ran from Boston Common past the Old South Meeting House and up to the Old North Church also runs through Birmingham, Alabama. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the meaning of its creed: We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all men are created equal.'' Martin Luther King Yes, we can celebrate. We can celebrate the freedom we have today and the greater freedom we'U have in the future. —MJNrV210ddQ N3(T1Q5 VNINIH3 51H ‘nrata aw do ssamn ad 'Nvh Asma oi TO WORK, AND TO BDCOMD W WTO 1UIN NIC 8 MANHOOD AND HIC UCION CAN COMBINE- TO MAKE HIM Du CcmlW. f-faues EDUCATOR, Pf-tlLOQOPUER, MJ U WnARlAN Dr. Carol William Hayes was born January 28. 1897, In Hopkinsville.

Such shooting, while the Haw ks could get but 12 points down the stretch, saw the Pacesetters take the lead for good at 52-50 on a long shot by Albright w ith I 50 remaining Though Glenn had led from the first (joarter until (hat point, there were six ead changes in the game and the score as tied on five occasions. mpbell closed out with 30 points ind Albright with 20 more.

Ens-ley’s Clifford Lee and Anthony Farley and Woodlawn’s Michael Hardy Little-guy Malcolm Williams, a 5-' guard who came off the Hayes bend for valuable play making in the firs half, played as if he were 6-5 And it may have been that such hustle an drive that he displayed got the Paceset ters going in the right direction whei they were down by six points earlyfr the second half.
