Arnold's Story: February 27, 1949

I note a mistake that Arnold makes, calling his Negro friend Hal May a 'boy' but his friend John Rowe a 'man'. The designation Negro, also, has fallen by the wayside, as has Colored (from the Fifties and Sixties) and sometimes also Black in favor of African-American.
