Crimson White Is the Community Newspaper of the University of Said WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 30, 2013 VOLUME 120 ISSUE 50 Serving The University of Alabama since 1894 SPORTS | SOCCER Making history Senior Molly Atherton hopes to lead the Crimson Tide to the postseason, beyond By Caroline Gazzara | Staff Reporter With a swift kick, Senior midfielder Molly Atherton scored the game-winning goal against then-No. 20 Georgia, cementing Alabama as a threat to the rest of the SEC this season. When the ball hit the back of the net in overtime, it sealed the first road victory of the sea- son for the Crimson Tide, and Atherton made it happen. If Atherton had to describe her soccer career in one word, she would say it was unforgettable. Hailing from Gulfport, Miss., Atherton said she knew she belonged at Alabama after her first campus visit; however, she committed to the Crimson Tide because she believed in a dream to make history. “I think the big thing that always sticks with me is that I could make history here and really be able to turn this program around, which was pretty much a selling point for me, and I think that’s ulti- mately why I chose to come here,” Atherton said. “I wanted to be a part of something big. While we may have not seen all the success we have wanted to see these past four years, the change of culture is a tremendous difference.” Alabama hasn’t made the postseason since the 2011-12 season – the only time in her career Alabama made it that far. But she could make history again this week as she and the team get ready to face Auburn in a game with a simple outcome: The winner goes to the SEC tournament, and the loser’s season is over. Before joining the Crimson Tide, Atherton started out playing any- thing and everything she could get her hands on, whether it was soccer, softball, tennis or even board games. Atherton’s father, John Atherton, said she was very active throughout her childhood, but around the age of 11, she realized that soccer was her passion.

Emanuel* Truth is sometimes stranger than fiction. So it was in 1960 when Elbert Tuttle became the Chief Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, the federal appellate court with jurisdiction over most of the Deep South. Part of the genius of the Republic lies in the carefully calibrated structure of the federal courts of appeal. One assumption underlying the structure is that judges from a particular state might bear an allegiance to the interests of that state, which would be reflected in their opinions.

  • CHAPTER 1 GROWING up in SEGREGATION an Adult Sense of Racial Awareness Began for Me in the Late 1940S When I Was a Young Teenage
    CHAPTER 1 GROWING UP IN SEGREGATION An adult sense of racial awareness began for me in the late 1940s when I was a young teenager. My mother and father took me and my older brother to Ford’s Theater, the only “legitimate theater” in Baltimore where one could see a touring Broadway show. The family was going to see the Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein, II, musical Show Boat to celebrate my older brother’s birthday. To get into the theater, my family and I had to walk past a young white man holding up a sign protesting racial discrimination at Ford’s Theater. This lone picketer, I later realized, was probably claiming that a “whites-only” Ford’s Theater violated the “separate but equal” doctrine promulgated by the Supreme Court in 1896 to justify racial discrimina- tion. Since there was no separate theater where blacks could see a touring Broadway play in Baltimore, even the antiquated “separate but equal” principal required that black people be allowed to buy a ticket and watch the show at Ford’s Theater. The Supreme Court decision was Plessy v. Ferguson. The court ruled that, under the “equal protection of the laws” clause of the U. S. Consti- tution, facilities for African-Americans could be separate from white facilities as long as they were equal to the white facilities. As I was standing there, a white man walked up to the young white man holding the sign demanding that blacks be allowed into Ford’s Theater. The white man whispered something in the picketer’s ear.
