Washington, D. C., May 26.—After a delay of several years, during which time President C. B. King, of the Republic of Liberia, made a personal visit to the United States, congress passed a resolution today authorizing the United States to make a loan of $5,000,000 to the little black republic. The amount of money will be used in paying the debts which were made prior to and during the recent world war.
The vote was taken after the house had defeated a motion to recommit the resolution to the ways and means committee with instructions to report it forthwith with an amendment providing that no part of the amount loaned should be used in paying the indebtedness of Liberia incurred prior to August 1, 1914.
The resolution was passed by a vote of 148 to 139, with six members voting present. The motion to recommit was defeated 168 to 126. About forty Republicans voted against, the bill, although many Republicans, in and around the chamber did not vote. The Democrats opposed it solidly.
In the all-day wrangle, characterized by Representative Tincher, Republican, Kansas, as "the most diabolical political fight in the history of the house in the last two years," there was what some members described as the remarkable spectacle of Republican leaders insisting that an agreement of the Wilson administration should be carried out, with Democratic leaders asserting that the loan to Liberia was authorized in 1918 "in defiance of law."

President C. B. King, of Liberia, was in the United States last summer, having visited Washington in an effort to lay before the government the needs of his republic and to insist on immediate action in the way of financial aid. Leading Negroes throughout the country gave aid to President King in the way of bringing pressure to bear upon government officials to make the loan.
The Democratic members declare that the authority for the measure terminated with the cessation of hostilities with Germany, when credit provisions for countries associated with the allies were included in the Liberty Loan act.
Ostensibly that is the reason for the opposition of the Democrats. Those who are familiar with the record of that party, however, know that it is force of habit that prompts the gentlemen, most of them from the Southern States, to oppose the granting of the loan to the little Negro African republic.

"I am unalterably opposed to being undone that I can do to defend Hughes appeared before the president of the United States beyond the authority vested in his foreign nations for a loan of money or legal obligation that will require the loan.
"Liberia is a little Negro nation of 60,000 semi-civilized Nones. They have neither an assecution of the war, they did not or other supplies, and in no way the war.

This is especially true with conditions which were never Liberty Loan act authorizing or authority to make these loans on war.

I think the best interest so served by our formally not used to be "Lady Bountiful," an treasury for money for their it to be wrung from our citizen have nothing undone that I can bill."
"I am unalterably opposed to this loan and shall leave nothing undone that I can do to defeat it. I had it defeated until Mr. Hughes appeared before the committee. I do not believe the president of the United States or any other official, acting beyond the authority vested in him, can make any agreement with foreign nations for a loan of money that will create any moral or legal obligation that will require congress to ratify and authorize the loan.
"Liberia is a little Negro republic in Africa with a population of 60,000 semi-civilized Negroes and two million uncivilized ones. They have neither an army or a navy, and in the prosecution of the war, they did not furnish any soldiers, munitions, or other supplies, and in no way contributed to the prosecution of the war. It is absurd to contend that they did; therefore any commitment under the second Liberty Loan act by the last administration was ultravires and not binding upon the government. This is especially true as the original commitment was with conditions which were never complied with by Liberia. The Liberty Loan act authorizing credits expressly stated that the authority to make these loans ceased with the conclusion of the war."
"With our people burdened with taxation, I think indefensible that they should be taxed to loan five millions of dollars to this Negro republic. I think the best interest of the people of America will be so served by our formally notifying the world that we have ceased to be "Lady Bountiful," and that they could not come to our treasury for money for their internal development, the money to be wrung from our citizens by payment of taxes. I shall leave nothing undone that I can do to prevent the passage of this bill."
Ladies of the S. I. N. club met last week with Mrs. I. F. Silvers and held a splendid meeting. This week the meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Geo. W. Caldwell and reports were made on the entertainment held at the A. M. E. Zion church. The entertainment was a grand success, both financially and socially. The meeting of the club Monday, May 29, will be with Mrs. Robt. L. Fortune, in the law offices of Attorney Fortune, 35 East Washington street, Room 7. E. Hall. A full attendance is desired as business of importance is to be transact ed.

PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, MAY 27, 1922
NEGRO'S LOYALTY TO OLD GLORY WILL BE DISCUSSED SUNDAY
Three hundred years from Savagery, (The American Negro), will be the subject for discussion Sunday, May 28, by the Epworth League at the C. M. E. church, corner Seventh street and Jefferson. The principal speakers are C. C. Credile, A. R. Smith and W. J. Jones. These young men will present every phase of the Negro question from 1619 to 1922. They are making great preparations and their discourses, no doubt, will be interesting. The League begins at 6:30 p. m. and closes at 7:30. If you would enjoy an interesting lecture, attend the meeting of the Epworth League Sunday.
On last Sunday, May 21, the Rev. Wm. Solly preached an able sermon to the congregation of the C. M. E. church from the subject: "I Do Remember My Fauls This Day", Gen. 41:9. His discourse was logical, forcible and withal spiritual. All were benefitted by his words and this week, his sermon has been the subject of favorable comment.
The League services at 6:30 were grand. The subject: "What the Epworth League Does For Us", was discussed by Mrs. Saunders and Mrs. Nola Hamilton whose talks showed they had given much time and thought to the subject. This being Anniversary Day for the Epworth League, a short program was rendered as follows;
Paper ..... "Origin Of The League", ..... Mrs. C. C. Credile. Solo ..... Mrs. Webster Davis. Paper ..... "How To Get New Members For The League" ..... Mrs. M. Thompson. Vocal Duet Mr. and Mrs. M. A. White Paper ..... Miss Vivian Wynne. In the evening at 8 o'clock, the Rev. Edward Jones delivered the sermon to a large and appreciative audience. His was a masterful presentation of biblical truths and we believe that some of the seed gown fell upon good ground and in due season will spring up and bring forth fruit. Rev. Jones is an Evangelist of note and always impresses his audience. The attendance was large and the collection good. Next Sunday, the pastor, Rev. M. Thompson will deliver the Baccalaureate sermon to the graduating class of the Colored Division of the Phoenix Union High school, at this church at 11 a.m. All Phoenix invited to attend the services.
SECRETARY JOHNSON NOW IN WASHINGTON
James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, having received a telegram from Senator William E. Borah, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee sitting on the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, left New York to be in Washington on Friday, May 19.
Mr. Johnson carried with him a copy of Moorfield Storey's brief, upholding the constitutionality of the bill, for which Senator Borah telegraphed.
Before leaving for Washington, Mr. Johnson issued the following statement:
"Now is the time for every citizen and editor and preacher to strike hard for the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. If it is reported out of the senate Judiciary committee, the chances are very strong it will be passed by the senate. That means the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill will become a law, for there is little doubt that the President will sign it.
"So now is the time. Telegraph or write your senators. Get your friends to do likewise. Ask everyone who may be interested to strike now while the iron is white hot. Success has never before been so near.
"James Weldon Johnson."
An Appreciation
Mrs. E. L. Flewellen, V. G. H. P., wishes to thank the officers and members of the Tabernacle for their cordial welcome and reception given in her honor during her visit.

PRES. HARDING IS NOT IN SYMPATHY WITH KU KLUX KLAN
Medford, Ore., May 26.—(Special)
—A declaration made by a speaker for the Ku Klux Klan at the klan's public meeting held here recently that President Harding was friendly to the organization, so aroused Mrs. Frank L. Applegate of Medford that she wrote to the president concerning the truth of the statement. Today she received the following reply:
"The White House, Washington, D. C., April 18, 1922.
"My dear Mrs. Applegate: Your letter of April 12 to the president is received. You may be very sure that any statement of the president's interest in or approval of the Ku Klux Klan is a complete and egregious misrepresentation of the president's attitude. In some quarters it has even been represented that the president is a member of this organization. Not only is that untrue but the fact is that the president heartily disapproves of the organization and has repeatedly expressed himself to this effect.
"Very sincerely,
"Georgie B. Christian, Jr.,
"Secretary to the President."
FIRST RACE DRAMA SCORES HIT IN N. Y.
New York City, May 26.—At the Lafayette theatre on Monday night, May 8, the first drama written, social and staged by colored people had its premiere and scored one of the biggest successes ever recorded at this well known house. "The Flat Below" is the title of the production, and while it can be said that Flournoy Miller is the author, the name of Miller, Lyles, Sissle and Blake all appear as authors and producers of the piece.
True it is that we have had amateur productions written with the intent of passing muster as "race plays" but these things were ragged. This offering, which is drawing splendid houses to the Seventh Avenue theatre this week, comes nearer to what we all expect as a race play than anything seen around here.
The theme of the story is Christianity, incidently taking a side-swipe at society for preaching something which society seldom practices. Brimful of humor and acted in an able manner, the drama is truly well worth seeing. Popularity is bound to follow wherever shown for the profiteering landlord is seen at his worst, but is bested in the long run.

Dean Kelly Miller Makes Forceful Statement
Perhaps one of the most forceful statements that have been made recently regarding the "Go to High School, Go to College" movement is contained in the editorial by Dean Kelly Miller which appears in the May 6th issue of the Pittsburgh Courier. Dean Miller stated: "This 'Go to High School, Go to College' week is merely suggestive of the wide field of activity in which such organizations might well engage. The Negro man or woman of the future who falls short of at least a high school education can hardly hope to operate on a high level of service. The standard of the world is constantly increasing. The preparation which sufficed for the work of the world a generation ago will not meet the requirements of today. High School opportunities are easily within the reach of practically every boy and girl, especially in the large centers of population. It should be a reproach to any Colored youth within reach of such facilities to be without a high school diploma. The demands of professional and technical service are exacting a complete college education or at least a minor part thereof. Any youth who hopes to serve his day on the high level of leadership in the professional sphere must needs avail himself of a college education. The appeal, therefore, which is being made by the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity should meet with a ready and spontaneous response from every Negro youth who would serve his day and generation on the high levels of human endeavor."
42 Chapters Report Successful Local Campaigns
Reports from the 42 chapters of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity to the National Secretary, Norman L. McGhee, show that more than two million students and parents have been reached during the "Go to High School, Go to College" week, May 7th to 14th. In practically every large city in the United States and many of the smaller cities meetings have been held either by the chapter of the Fraternity located in the city or by a member designated by a nearby chapter. Every effort, in all cases, has been to inspire the youth of the race to greater educational endeavor. During the week members of local chapters by permission of the Boards of education in the various cities visited every Colored graded, high and normal school in their city where they made appeals to the students to continue in school, showing them the advantages to be derived from thorough preparation for the various fields which they would later enter. Literature calculated to inspire the youth of the Nation with the desire to continue their education was circulated among the students graduating from the grammar and high schools. Placards setting forth statistics of the advantage of the educated over the uneducated man were posted. Slides were carried in the leading moving picture houses. In a number of cities information relative to the availability of scholarships offered at various institutions was sent out by the chapters of the Fraternity. Clubs, Societies, and various other organizations were asked to establish scholarships for worthy students in reputable colleges. Every person was urged to encourage some child to continue in high school and go to college. A number of chapters reported the holding of prize essay contests and the award of scholarships.

Valuable Aid Given By Negro Press
In addition to the cooperation which the "Go to High School, Go to College" movement received from the leading educators and prominent members of the race, the Negro Press of the country has effectively helped in the dissemination of information regarding the need of more concerted educational effort.

A WONDERFUL RECORD
It is not quite sixty years since it was signed. Well within the Negro race was practically confined entirely to day labor by a place to sleep and something beyond creature comfort.

It is not quite sixty years since the Emancipation Proclamation was signed. Well within the lifetime of many now living the Negro race was practically totally ignorant, its activities confined entirely to day labor in the fields, its ideals represented by a place to sleep and something to eat, its ambitions nothing beyond creature comfort.
In the nation's capital the seventh annual Negro race congress has just come to an end. This congress, organized in September, 1916, has for its main purpose the uplifting of the colored race. Through its channels have been spread doctrines and ideals for the inspiration of the colored people. Prominent Negro educators, lawyers, physicians, and business men attended. Questions affecting the social, economic, civic, intellectual, and moral life of the colored race were discussed and a declaration of principles for the American Negro adopted. Professor Kelly Miller, of Howard university, chairman of the commission which drafted the principles, said that it is the aim of the congress to make them the aims and ideals of the race.
Is it not a wonderful record for less than sixty years? Is it not a great tribute to the means which has raised a race, but a few hundred years removed from African savagery and but fifty-nine from slavery, to a position in which it can hold a race congress, formulate ideals, look with pride upon several universities, which can muster in its ranks an educator a president was proud to entertain, a poet read by all the world, and solid citizens of worth and property?
If ever a country had a race problem on its hands, these United States had it after Appomatox. If ever educators had a triumph, it is in the work the schools have done in promoting the welfare of the Negro race, and thus the welfare of all Americans, who have found in the Negro school, the Negro college, the Negro university, the means for making those who were slaves and chattels, useful citizens.—Gazette.
School closing time is here and many are the graduates who will go forth from high schools and colleges. The question uppermost in the minds of most high school graduates is: "Will it pay to go to college?" This question the student can answer for himself. If he wants to be a full-fledged man, then a college course opens the way to broader opportunities; if he is satisfied with a smattering of an education and is willing to join the large army of second-rate individuals, then he need go no further.
Join the N. A. A. C. P., is the slogan of all race papers throughout the land. This organization is fighting our cause and we should get behind it and push with our dollars.

Justice Henry J. Sullivan is the first public official in this county to openly denounce the Ku Klux Klan. Aside from the bold stand he has taken in this matter, he has proved fair in all his decisions and we believe he is worthy of any office in Maricopa county to which he may aspire.
Nothing succeeds like success. The Tribune is growing in popularity daily and bids fair to become the one great paper in the southwest. Our friends are legion.

Harding Summer Park
A group of Phoenix people visited Harding Summer Park in Tempe last Sunday and all had a glorious time. Mrs. J. A. Johnson is owner of this park and welcomes all who care to journey thither. Any time any of the Phoenix churches wish to give a little outing or hay ride, Mrs. Johnson invites them to make Harding Summer Park their destination. The park is at Mrs. Johnson's place, 115 West Second street. It is an ideal place for public or private picnics. In the group that visited the park last Sunday were Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, Prof. C. C. Credille and wife, Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Brown, Mrs. A. M. Wooby, Attorney Robt. L. Fortune and family and several others. When you think of an outing, think of Harding Summer Park, Tempe, Arizona, 115 West Second street.
Important Business Deal
Last week Mr. and Mrs. C. W.
Hawkins purchased the Vogue Missif
Parlor, formerly operated by Mr. F.
C. Cleveland and Mrs. Wm. Shannon.
They will make some changes in the management of the place and plan to install a soda fountain, and will carry ice cream and other refreshments.
Mr. and Mrs. Hawkins came to Phoenix only a few months ago from Colorado, where he was engaged in Y.
M. C. A. work. Mrs. Hawkins for a number of years conducted a drug store in Denver, Colo., and understands this business thoroughly. From time to time, they plan to make improvements on their present establishment, and eventually give us a really up-to-date business place. The Vogue is located at 143 South 2nd. street.
Mrs. Cicero C. Simmons of Tucson, Arizona, was a business visitor in the city a few days this week. She came to supervise the remodeling of her home, 1129 East Washington street. The interior is being thoroughly remodeled and she will have a small house built in the rear. Mr. Chas. Alternatt and son have charge of the painting and decorating. Mrs. Simmons is a pioneer resident of Phoenix, but for the past several years has been living in Tucson where her husband, Prof. C. C. Simmons is principal of the colored grammar school. She returned to Tucson Tuesday evening.

Clement Brown, advisory designer and owner of Brown's Studios. The summer class will be held in the Fairmont hotel, San Francisco.
Hay Ride a Success
The hay ride given by the Deacon Board of the Second Baptist church last Friday night proved entirely successful. Many went for the ride to Mesa and all enjoyed the barbecue and refreshments. Mr. Steve Howard presided over the barbecue pit and the steer was done to a turn. A neat little sum was realized for the church and all enjoyed themselves to the highest. Mr. W. H. King was chairman, Mr. Ina Gilstrap, secretary and The Rev. E. D. Green, pastor.

New Work City, May 26.—A committee of citizens called on the Republican county chairman the other day seeking to bring to the attention of Governor Miller the ban on boxing against colored fighters. It is the opinion of many, who profess to know, that nothing will come of the effort as Governor Miller pulled a big bluff shortly after he was carried into office on the tail of the Harding

Not a single "sundown pen pusher" was seen at the gathering and in spite of the half-promise made before election, the governor has never done anything to allow the colored boys to fight the white ones in New York. Doubtless he is of the opinion that colored men should only fight in France for "democracy."

WILLS AND DEMPSEY MAY MEET JULY 1 IN RING ENGAGEMENT
(Special to The Tribune)
New York, May 26.—After dodging all over America and half over Europe Jack Dempsey, white heavyweight champion boxer of the world, will defend his title against Harry Wills in the baseball park here July 1st, the New York World learns today.
All arrangements for the bout have been made and it only remains for Jack Kearns to sign on the dotted line and cinch the formal articles of agreement.
The bout, it is understood, will be promoted by the Montreal Press Club, and assurance has been given that no interference will come from the authorities.
July 1 here is Dominion Day, which corresponds to Independence Day, or July 4th, in the United States. The date falls on Saturday and it is anticipated that 100,000 people can see the bout, as temporary stands will be erected in the baseball park.
Harry Wills long has been considered the logical challenger for Dempsey's heavyweight title. He has size, reach, poundage, and boxing skill in his favor, to say nothing of plenty of experience.
The amount of the purse has not been divulged, but it is understood that Dempsey is guaranteed $300,000 with a privilege of a percentage of the gross receipts, which are likely to reach $1,000,000 or more.
MESA JEWELS DEFEAT GIANTS
IN SUNDAY'S BALL GAME
The mighty Western Giants went down in defeat before the crack team at Mesa last Sunday. The colored boys gave a good account of themselves but the odds were against them. It is said that it is next to impossible for an outside team to beat Mesa on its own field. Let the Mesa Jewels journey to Riverside Park and meet the Giants and there will be a different story to tell. A large crowd of Phoenix baseball fans motored over to Mesa to witness the game Sunday between the Giants and Mesa Jewels. The Western Giants will meet the Phoenix White Sox in Riverside Park Sunday afternoon, May 28, and invite all their friends to come out and root for the home boys. The Giants also will play the Woodmen team Tuesday, Decoration Day in East Lake Park.

DEMPSEY OFFERED $500.000 TO MEET SOUTH AMERICAN
(Special to The Tribune)
New York, May 26.—With plans for the future indefinite but asserting positively that he will not fight until Labor Day, at least, Jack Dempsey, king of the heavyweight division, returned on the Aquatania last week will remain here one or two days and then hustle to Los Angeles to visit his mother.
Before the ship docked both the champion and his manager, Jack Kearns spiked the suggested bout with Harry Wills, Negro challenger, proposed by Tex Rickard and Frank Flournoy for July 1 at Montreal. Dempsey, is not really out of condition, both he and his manager protested, but said Jack "not so soon after a trip to Europe. Have you ever been in Paris?"
"If Dempsey is matched late in the summer the bout may be staged in Europe said Kearns, who is enthusiastic over the purse England's promoters have proposed. He confirmed the report that Dempsey is to again meet Georges Carpenter some time before next May somewhere in Europe. Should American promoters offer a satisfactory purse, Labor Day with Wills, Willard or any one, it will be accepted, but if a match does not materialize at home the champion will return to the other side. Kearns explained. A crowd of several hundred cheering fans and half a dozen girls met Dempsey at the pier.
Both Kearns and Dempsey employed superlatives in describing the champion's reception in England, France and Germany. Dempsey admitted that his heart was sent affluent by the girls of Paris, but he added "give me an American girl. I can see more class in one minute in New York than in six weeks in Europe. But they are all right over there."
The boxer's manager professed ecstasy over the showing that Carpentier made in recently knocking out Ted "Kid" Lewis, English champion, in less than a round. Europe is "crazier" over the prospect of a Dempsey-Carpentier bout than the United States was before the champion defeated the French challenger in the Jersey City arena last July, Kearns said. Carpentier's defeat of Lewis had added fuel to the flaming British desire to see the Frenchman whipped.
"If nothing is developed to the satisfaction of Kearns and Dempsey in the United States and it is decided to delay the Carpentier bout until next spring Dempsey might go to South America to meet Luis Firpo champion of Latin-America who is now in the United States. Although Firpo is just a novice, he is highly rated in Argentina.
An offer of $500,000 for Dempsey's share alone was cabled to him in London by a group of Argentina sportmen, Kearns said.
European bidders for a match with Carpentier haven't approached the half million dollar share to the champion Kearns declared but James White and Douglas Stewart, promoters were talking as high as $225,000 when the Dempsey party sailed.

IS IT INGRATITUDE THAT AFFECTS JACK JOHNSON OR WHAT?
(Preston News Service)
New York, May 26.—One is almost tempted to believe that there is something of ingratitude in the make-up of Jack Johnson and to this can be laid the stellar reason for his continued sufferings. Note where they have served him with papers in Chicago, the charge being that he forgot all about a debt of $4,000 advanced to him shortly after he left Leavenworth. Among the first things Jack did with the borrowed coin was to buy himself an automobile.
This reminds us of the time he was having his troubles in New York City after winning from Jim Jeffries. Mrs. Walker an estimable lady who before her death conducted the Press Hotel, advanced the bail money which made it possible for Johnson to loll around at Baron Wilkins cafe while waiting for his trial to come up. One day Mrs. Walker had occasion to call at the cafe to see Jack, but the champion thought he was too busy and sent word down that he would call to see her at her hotel when he had time.
Mrs. Walker jumped to her feet and informed the messenger that unless Johnson wanted to be turned over to the authorities in five minutes he would slide down the bannister and appear in her presence. Needles to say, Jack did the hundred yard dash in nothing to placate the irate lady.
BIRMINGHAM IS NOW IN HANDS OF KU KLUX SAY LATEST REPORTS
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today made public a letter from the Birmingham, Alabama, branch, showing that the work of organization was going forward more despite flogging of colored citizens by the Ku Klux Klan. The letter says in part:
"But in spite of discouragement and sometimes risk of a flogging at the hands of the K. K. K., we have started our drive and we are determined to roll up a respectable number.
"Of late there is a flogging in our city of some colored and sometimes a white once or twice a week. Our branch is aware of four such cases of colored people now.
"We are holding our membership meetings every Sunday."

NAT'L LEAGUE NOTES
Now that the league season is under way, fans and fanettes all over the country are beginning to wonder just how the teams will appear when the 1922 season closes. While no one has a right to predict just what the outcome will be, yet on the relative appearance and strength of the various teams during the spring training trips and their first few games, has caused the writer to make the following guess as to how the teams will finish when the curtain goes down.
The position of the teams at close of 1922 season according to Wm. G. Dunn's opinion will be as follows:
Pittsburgh Keystones
Tate Stars
St. Louis Stars
Mr. Nunn says, "I pick Chicago to again lead the race owing to the fact that Manager A. R. Foster has kept practically his entire 1921 championship team intact. In addition to that the winning combination, headed by the foxy, crafty Foster, is one of the greatest aggregation of colored players in the country. Although they will doubtless win again.
"The A. B. C's managed by Ben Taylor, will finish second. Charleston's return to the field together with the wealth of promising pitching material, and the return of the nucleus of the old team should keep them in the running.
"Kansas City with its great outfield and pitching staff, should give A. B. C's and American Giants a close race for one-two-three honors.
"Cuban and Detroit Stars will fight it out for the other position in the first division. Petaway is now managing Detroit, and their opening series gives every indication that the two teams are about evenly matched.
"Then comes the Pittsburgh Keystones, Tate Stars and St. Louis Stars in the order named. St. Louis has just come through a reorganization period and it is practically impossible to expect from them this season.
"I may be right and then again, I may be wrong. Be that as it may, this is the way the race shapes up at the present time, from where I am sitting."
"How can keep my toes from going to sleep?"
"Don't let them turn in."
FAR FROM FLATTERING
"Foreigner, hey? By gosh, you talk our lingo like a native."
"Pardon me, I hope not."

IS LEFT TO KEARNS WHETHER DEMPSEY WILL . FIGHT HARRY
(Presson News Service)
New York, May 26.—The latest bit of news anent the meeting of Jack Dempsey and Harry Wills came from Montreal, Canada, a few days ago. It is to the effect that everything is all set for a fight to be staged by the chamber of commerce in a baseball park in the Canadian city and the gate is estimated at over a million if Dempsey is willing to crawl from behind the color line and show the world he isn't the biggest ham that ever paraded as a champion.
It is said that the white man will be guaranteed $400,000 with a percentage. Of course, and as is the custom the colored brother, to prove that he is a real fighter will have to accept almost anything to get the white fighter in the ring. And insiphe of the tempting offer many of the fight fans entertain serious doubts of Dempsey accepting. He would rather fight some of the European near-pugilists for much less money than face a real fighter—WILLS.

The Normandy farms near the coast are rich and fertile. They are well tilled and fed with the seaweed that is cast up on the shore. Great cars, drawn by sturdy Normandy horses, pass and repass with their loads of seaweed, which makes a splendid dressing for the farms.

JUNIOR GIANTS WIN SENSATIONAL GAME FROM INDIAN SCHOOL
Pitcher Quetts of the Junior Giants broke into the baseball hall of fame Saturday afternoon, hanging up a no hit no run victory against the fast Indian school team. The slugging Giants pounded Timothy's delivery for 18 hits and romped home with a 13 to 0 victory.
An error by the third baseman permitted a runner to make first and steal second. He was the only man to reach first in nine innings.
Floyd Johnson starred at bat, clicking five hits in six times up. He also pilfered six bases and was responsible for nine of the Giants 13 scores.
Manager Hickes says he has two games scheduled for the coming week and he hopes to make a strong bid for valley baseball honors.
Score— R. H. E.
