Ohio Senator Challe Representativ
New York, Oct. 17.—A formal challenge was issued yesterday by Senator Roscoe C. McCulloch of Ohio to debate Walter White, Acting Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in Columbus, on October 29, on the subject: "Resolved, that Roscoe McCulloch's vote to con-
judge Parker as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court over the protest of colored people is ample ground for their opposition to his election to the United States Senate from Ohio." The challenge was issued by C. E. Dichionson, chairman of the Ohio Conference of N. A. A. C. P. branches and telegraphed to Senator McCulloch, with a request for prompt reply by telegraph.
In his telegram making the challenge, Mr. Dickinson said: "The N. A. A. C. P. of Ohio claims you should not profit politically by the suffrage of colored voters in that over their protei you voted to seat on the Supreme Court bench a man who is opposed to their right to vote." And the debate was offered Senator McCulloch that he might "have an opportunity to make your position clear to the colored people."
Some white newspapers are studiously avoiding the Negro issue in Ohio, the New York Times, in a lengthy summary today conceding the issue raised by McCullough's pro-Parker vote. That the Negro vote is a vital issue is attested by the money the Republicans are spending and their desperate efforts to counteract the N. A. A. C. P. campaign. On the

HOLD FUNERAL SERVICES OF ARMSTEAD ROBINSON AT SHA-
RON BAPTIS CHURCH
Funeral services over the remains of Mr. Armstead Robinson who died in Beckley, W. W. Monday, October 13, 1930, were held from the residence of his sister, Mrs. Fannie K. Richardson, of 728 N. 5th, Saturday, Oct. 18, 1930, at 2 P. M. Rev R. H. Johnson, pastor of Sharon Baptist church having charge of the services read the 23rd Psalm, after which prayer were offered by Rev. A. S. Thomas, Mr. Robert A. Cole rendered very touchingly, "Waiting for me." Rev. Johnson spoke very sympathetically to the family and friends realizing the great shock that had come to them in the death of a brother and friend, atking as his theme. It never rains but it pours. Miss Eloise Bowles sang sweet, what are they doing in Heaven today. The remains were then borne to Evergreen Cemeteryby funeral directors, W. J. Lohnson's Sons.
The family of the late Mr. Armstead Robinson take this medium of thanking the neighbors and friends for their many acts of kindness shown them in the sudden death of their brother.
and Florida have made strides in in this direction and it is hoped that Virginia may line up definitely in the movement. Other colored speakers have been invited to discuss the race question from an impartial and scientific standpoint, but the Planet has not been able to learn their identity up to the time of going to press. It is understood that although these meetings are primarily for the white religious leaders to get together and decide as to how they will cooperate in interracial work. arrangements arebeing made for some colored attendance at one of the sessions.
other hand colored editors are enthusiastically supporting the N. A. A. C. P. campaign, a typical utterance being one by George S. Schuyler in the Pittsburgh Courier who says in part: "All praise to the N. A. A. C. P. for keeping up the fight on the senators who voted for Judge Parker's confirmation. Most Negroes have probably forgotten all about the memorable fight but the N. A. A. C. P. boys are right on the trail of Senator McCulloch of Ohio, Hastings of Delaware and Metcalf of Rhode Island. The bruit goeth forth that the Negro voters are aroused and the senators marked for slaughter at the polls are bleating mournfully for Negro support. Let us hope the Negro voters everywhere will defeat every man who voted for Parker and every candidate for Congress who does not pledge himself to vote for a Federal anti-lynch bill."
The campaign plans of the N. A. A. C. P. on the Parker vote issue were today announced as follows:
Ohio: Walter White will speak in Cincinnati Oct. 27; Toleda Oct. 28; Cleveland Oct. 29 (date to be shifted if McCullock accepts challenge for Columbus debate); Akron Oct. 30; Columbus Nov. 2 (if challenge for Oct. 29 is not accepted by McCullock. Delaware: N. A. A. C. P. procured former U. S. District Attorney James C. Thomas of New York to address the Civic Rights League in Wilmington. Sunday, Oct. 19 at 3, in the fight against Senator Hastings. Dr. Du Bois and Mr. Bagnall, N. A. A. C. P. Director of Branches have previously spoken.

COURT RULES AGAINST
RUIL MAN PORTERS
Chicago, Ill. Oct.—(CNA) The Federal judge, Charles E. Woodward, turned down the petition of 8,000 porters and 3,000 sleeping-car maids to restrain the Pullman Co. from turning the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters into a company union. The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, which is now facing a lay-off of 2,000 workers, was betrayed by Philip Randolph and Roy Lancaster, socialists, who sold the union to the Jim Crow A. F. of L. Following the same reformist tactics, this fake leadership created the ilusion among the porters that the bosses' court would rule in favor of the workers-
Now the rank and file is disillusioned in the "justice" of the bosses' court, but these workers, under reformist leadership, are unprepared to carry on a real struggle. The fullman porters and maids must show their determination to fight lay-offs and wage cuts by joining the Trade Union Unity League, supporting the unemployment insurance bill, and by voting for the Communists.
St. Luke In Big Campaign.
The Saint Luke great October Drive for membership received a great impetus on the night of October 16th at Hood Temple A. M. E. Zion Church. The occasion was a rally and program staged by the Central Division of the drive committee. The Church was packed by over a thousand people, eager to witness the program and take part in putting over this big annual drive for members.
Rev. G. W. Gaines, D. D., pastor of the Church delivered a forceful, inspiring and practical sermon on "The Feast of Belshazzar." The Elder held his subject well in hand as he clinched point after point in his well-arranged argument. Mrs. Carrie C. Hawkins was mistress of ceremonies and carried the meeting nicely. The following were foremost in promoting the meeting;
Committee—Mesdames Maggie M. Smith, Lucille Reid, Martina Johnson, Anointine T. Johnson, Emeline Johnson, Bessie Coleman, Alice Wyche, Estelle B. Anderson, Lelia W. Bankett, Mr. W. Morgan and Mrs. Carrie C. Hawkins, chairman.
The Saint Lukes of Richmond proved themselves to be a live number when they succeeded in putting over such a great meeting on a night when three other large meetings were being held at the same time, and is proof positive that the R. W. G. Secretary-Treasurer, Mrs. Maggie L. Walker has built the greatest working unit ever seen in Richmond. Mrs. Walker was present in her good humor and gave added impetus to the already campaign interest of the St. Luke workers as they press forward to the 1000 goal.
Richmond, Va., Oct. 20—(Special)—Henry Allen Boyd of Nashville, Tennessee, was unanimously elected as the speaker for "Men's Day" in this city on Sunday, Nov. 23rd. This information has been given out by Rev. Jos. T. Hill, A.M. D. D., the pastor of the Second Baptist church, placed on Bryd street, between 1st and 2nd streets. It has been honored for some time that the congress secretary from the Volunteer State who is also regarded as the Sunday school wizard, having led the congress forces for more than twenty five years, would be extended on invitation to visit the Old Dominion state. In addition to this he is connected with the National Negro Business League, the National Negro Press Association and the National Negro Rankers.
Plans are already under way by such outstanding Sunday school leaders as Mr. W. I. Hawkins, the president f the State Sunday Schol Convention, to give the Rev. Mr. Boyd a busy Sunday while he is in the capital of the old Dominion State. It
RICHMOND, VA., SATURDAY, OCT. 25, 1930
The High School Trouble
EDITORIAL
The action of the pupils at Armstrong High School last week cannot be condoned as far as mob action prevailed. We have always preached against mobocracy of any kind and therefore cannot countenance this one. It is unfortunate that there were not leaders among the pupils who could organize a legal protest against any wrongs they thought were being perpetrated upon them. The way to protest is always available to those who know how to peacefully organize the same.
We understand that even to this date no official protest has been made to Mr. Townsend. Is it a fact that we have no boys and girls with sense enough to present in an orderly fashion their grievances? If so, then the teachers should double their efforts to develop the minds of these high school students. They should be taught even how to make decent and legal protests.
Now to our mutton. The protests were based on a set of rules being placed in operation by the principal. These rules set the bounds for the recess periods within the school yards and between two traffic sing placed in a street (which the pupils contend is an alley) between the main school building and the annex. Secondly, the girls were forbidden to fraternize with the boys during recess period.
Although there were only two points in the new rules the pupils made it a three-point protest by injecting into the question a request to be allowed to patronize the store operated by Mr. James H. Chiles, just about 20 feet off the west line of the school fence. They declared vehemently that they wanted to patronize one of their own race. If this is true in our next generation, then that is a great improvement over the Negro of yesterday and today. If they were really sincere and exploded because they wanted to buy from a Negro then we forgive

is under stood that Mrs. Floyd will accompany the secretary to this city, and that Dr. C. P. Madison, the secretary of the National Baptist Convention of America, down at Norfolk, Dr. O. J. Allen of Norfolk, and many of the leaders from this state will be here to greet him. In all probability it is thought that he will speak to the ministers on Monday morning in their regular conference. Confirmation of the invitation and its acceptance therefore, was received here by Dr. Jos. T. Hill, who began to press this invitation during the Lott Caret Convention at Baltimore, Md., in Aug. and renewed it at the National Baptist Convention in New York, during the month of September. The Rev. Mr. Boyd had the matter under advisement and reached a decision last week.

LABOR WRITER PLAYS DISCRIMINATION
New York, Oct.—(CNA) In an interview with a reporter for the capitalist press, Michael Gold, noted Jewish writer and author of "Jews Without Money", bitterly attacked the institution of discrimination.
"Race discrimination, declared Gold, "is based on economic exploitation." Going on he stated with the utmost conviction:
"There is nothing in race. Watch the spectacle in a big garment strike Jewish boss working with Irish cops and Italian gangsters to beat up Jewish workers."
Speaking on the discrimination against Negroes, Gold expressed himself in no uncertain terms. "I have no sympathy for the upper class Jew who wails about discrimination at Harvard or at high class hotels, because all of them unite in discrimination against the Negro. I've been kicked out of several Jewish restaurants because I was with Claude McKay, the colored poet. The Jews have taken up the worst prejudices of the South. Many who got the same sort of treatment in Russia now hand it back to the Negro.

Nothing But The Truth, Mr. Fess N.A.A.C.P.Bares Correspondence
New York, Oct. 17.—The methods employed by Republican administration leaders in the unsuccessful campaign to place Judge John J. Parker of North Carolina on the U. S. Supreme Court bench, were laid bare today, in an exchange of correspondence with Senator Simeon D. Fess of Ohio, published by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue.
Senator Fess had failed to reply to the telegram before it was made public and published in the New York Times, of Sunday, April 20.
On April 21, Senator Fess wrote
Ably Defended By Counsel
By Staff Correspondent
Chesterfield C. H., Va. — Oct. 22,
Oscar Bredenbaugh, 22, alias William
Miller, of 907 Denny Street, Richmond,
who with William Foye was charged with the murder of Lyle B.
Clements, Atlantic Coast Line detective, was tried and convicted on a
charge of first degree murder in the
Chesterfield County Circuit Court
heretoday. Judge Edwin P. Cox was on the bench, Commonwealths
Attorney M. V. Cogbill, conducted the proposition and Attorney Haley
D. Shelton, the defense.
It took the jury, which was composed, mostly of young farmers, exactly twenty minutes to reach a verdict in which they found the defendant at the time in the state penitentiary at life in the tate penitentiary at Richmond.
Dr. T. T. Prettlow was the first witness called to the stand. He described in detail as to the location of the bullet wounds, and stated that in his opinion any one of the three of the four bullet wounds were sufficient to have caused death. Mr. J. E. Dorsey, of the A. C. L. detelive force, while on the stand produced the alleged confession; Defense Counsel Shelton promptly objected to its admission (at this juncture the jury was sent out while attorney argued over the admission of the confession) Attorney Shelton stated to the court that, he intended to show to the court that the confession was obtained under such conditions that it would be impossible under the law, to admit it to record. The defense then recited to the court the conditions under which the confession was obtained, viz. That the prisoner was brought from Charleston, S. C., to Richmond, Va., on train, being allowed but little sleep on the journey, water being poured on him to keep him awake, and after being brought to Richmond, arriving there on Sunday morning at 4:30 a.m., was not allowed to rest, or sleep for more than thirty minutes between that time and Tuesday afternoon, when as he admitted to the court, he signed the alleged confession because he was afraid to refuse to sign it.
Senator Fess is an administration leader, chairman of the National Republican Committee, sent into Ohio to back up the candidacy of Senator McCulloch, who is opposed by the N. A. A. C. P. and the majority of colored voters on the ground that he voted for the confirmation of Judge Parker. Here is what passed between Senator Fess and the N. A. A. C. P. now publicly revealed for the first time:
On April 19, 1930, the N. A. A. C. P. made public a telegram to Senator Fess, challenging his statement that North Carolina Negroes were endorsing the Parker nomination, challenging his defense of Parker's fitness to sit on the Supreme bench and asking for a statement from Senator Fess whether a "man who indulges in temperate, thoughtless judgments advocating violation of Federal Constitution to race prejudice" political gain is of the high ethical and legal calibre who should sit on Supreme Court."
PICK HARRIS GETS SIX MONTH
Albert (Pick) Harris, who a few years ago, was known as the Black Mayor of Jackson Ward, was g.van six months by Judge Groner in the United States District Court, when a jury found him guilty on a charge of unlawfully and feloniously selling whiskey. A small quantity of whiskey was found in Harris's home on Corbin street July 23rd and the house was padlocked. It is said that Harris will begin serving his term at once and no appeal was noted.
JACOB WARE DROPS DEAD.
Jacob Ware, 45, of 207 E. Marshall street dropped dead in a club over the Dunbar restaurant 609 A. Second street Sunday night. Much excitement was caused by his sudden demise. Ware was well known around Richmond, being connected with the well-known Ware family, long identified in the life of Fifth St. Baptist church. This was the third sudden death in Second Street club rooms in recent weeks. Ware expired as the result of a hemorrhage.
ployd in grilling the prisoner, that the said detectives worked in shifts, (some grilling the prisoner while the others rested,) that the prisoner was confined in the A. C. L. detective headquarters in the old Byrd Street Station at Richmond, from Sunday morning until Tuesday evening without rest, that the prisoner went immediately to sleep after signing the confession and that the prisoner was told that it would be better for him to come clean and confess; or words to that effect. The prisoner on the stand, stated that he was choked and tortured by the officers and that he was told that if he did not confess that they would kill him.
Attorney Shelton put up an able defense. He did not succeed in having the confession ruled out completely, but was successful in having only those parts admitted which bore direct on the case, he had not a single witness for the defense, yet by his passionate and dramatic appeal to the jury of Virginia farmers he saved his client from death in the electric chair—a Negro convicted of first degree murder in the killing of a white man in the state of Virginia. At no time during the trial was any tense feeling to be noted. Every courtesy of the court was tendered the writer, he being seated about four or five feet from the prisoner and about six or eight feet from the witness chair. The writer feels that the prisoner received as fair a trial as could be expected under the prevailing conditions in the state and country.
the N. A. A. C. P. as follows: "I had read in the New York Times the telegram which you sent me on April 19th before it reached me at my office. Thanking you for your gratitude opinion. I am, etc."
On April 22 the N. A. A. C. P. inquired of the Postal Telegraph Company when the telegram to Senator Fess had been delivered, and received the following reply from that company:
"Your telegram of April 19th addressed Simeon Fess, Washington, D.C., delivered at 2:03 P. M. April 19th signed personally by Mr. Fess."
The N. A. A. C. P. now publicly inquires of this Hoover Administration leader who is supporting McCulloch in Ohio, whether the Postal Telegraph Company was mistaken, or whether he, Senator Simeon D. Fess, of Ohio, knowingly and wilfully lied when he said he had read the N. A. A. C. P. telegram in the New York Times before receiving it at this office.
Nothing but the truth, Mr. Simeon D. Fess.

New Medicine Containing 22 Roots and Herbs Did Wonders In This Case
After all, the real, satisfying test of any medicine is what it actually does for the person who takes it. Konjola, the new medicine containing the juices of 22 roots and herbs and ten other valuable medicinal ingredients, has become famous merely because it has made good. Is that the kind of medicine sufferers want and need? Meet the Konjola Man at the People's Service drug store, 101 East Broad street, Richmond, and learn how this medicine works. See what it has actually done right here in Richmond among your friends and neighbors. As a typical example of Konjola's merit, consider the case of Mr. John F. Brown, well known churchworker, who lives at 19 East Duval street, Richmond. He recently said to the Konjola Man:
"Although I am past 78 years old, Konjola won a splendid victory in my stubborn case. A year ago I began suffering with pains in my back which I was told was the result of kidney trouble. Then

rheumatism pains stabbed me in my hips and limbs. I walked with a limp. My appetite was poor; I was weak and run-down, and was a victim of constipation. No matter what medicine I took, I failed to get any relief. My friends were so enthusiastic about Konjola that I decided to try it. Well, Konjola gave me a big surprise. The first bottle did some good, and eight bottles of Konjola drove every pain from my body; restored my appetite, and made me feel years younger. I am happy for this opportunity to tell others about this wonderful Konjola."
Konjola contains no alcohol, no nerve-deadening drugs, no heart depressing chemicals. It needs no such harmful ingredients.
The Konjola Man is at the Peoples Service drug store, 101 East Broad street, Richmond, where daily he is meeting the public and explaining the merits of this new and totally different medicine.

The movement to reform the calendar by making the year into seven months of 28 days each with an extra holiday thrown in on Christmas and New Year is being headway.

George lastman has given tens of millions to further musical education and the appreciation of good music. He says, rightly, that the man or woman who gets his highest pleasure from producing or listening to music is a much happier as well as a much more useful citizen than the one who does not know what to do with his spare time.
Sir Philip Gibbs, most capable of British journalists, reports that drinking is becoming unfashionable in good society in England and diminishing among the working class. England has no prohibition law. We had no national prohibition law in America before the war, yet it was noticeable that drinking was falling off everywhere. After prohibition was enacted it became fashionable to patronize bootleggers as a gesture of defiance, not how these didn't one are, not how the kick out of their attitude which they got at first, and drinking seems definitely on the wane again. Good society no longer looks tolerantly on drunkenness. Flashing-tock is rightly regarded as childish.

tion, low overhead and high wages.
The lowest paid worker gets $5 a day, enough to buy a pair of the shoes he helps make and have a dollar left over.
A German shoe manufacturer visited this man's plant. The German makes a shoe which retails at 18 marks-$4.50. He pays his workmen six marks, $1.50, a day. A man has to work half a week to earn a pair of shoes.
"Our country and the rest of Europe will never get ahead until we learn that the workers must be our chief consumers, and must earn enough to buy the goods they make", said the German.
He had discovered the secret of American prosperity.
TITLES
Former members of the Russian nobility are scattered over the world. Some stand the test of poverty, many wilt under it, proving nothing except that people are much alike, titled or not. In New York a grand duke or two live without working by seeing "Imperial Orders" to guide Americans. The buyer get the right to wear a red ribbon on his shirt-front and pretend to be somebody. Harmless enough, but silly. Much more entitled to respect is a Russian princess who works a fashionable dress shop in New York. Her title is genuine, she is born in Russia, prefers independence on $50 a month and complains about nothing, except that her feet get pretty tired by 5 o'clock.

ECENTLY there came into my possession the photographs of five brothers whom I have known very well and my life. The pictures were taken when the eldest of the five was only eight years old.
The first thing that impressed me was the resemblance of each one to all the others. Anybody, looking at them, would have known at once that they are children of the same father and mother.
Even more striking was the fact that today, when their average age is forty, they seem to have changed very little. I had no difficulty in giving the baby pictures on the desk and saying: "This is John."
One might almost jump to the conclusion, from such an exhibit, that experience and will-power have very little to do with character.
Yet I know that each of these five boys has been changed, and by the exercise of his own free will.

Chances Slim For New School Bldg. In Staunton
Chances Slim For New School Bldg. In Staunton
The Community League of Staunton neld a very inspiring meeting in The Booker T. Washington High School recently. Several matters of importance were discussed, among which was the question of a new High School building. A Committee reported that a message had been received indirectly from the School board, saying, "That, owing to the rapid growth of Staunton, that it was that unwise to attempt to build a new building as the ground would not be available in the territory of the present site." This, or something of this nature was indirectly received.
Another question that was discussed was ways and means to aid Prof. Crockett to catalogue the books of the library that are being handled at present with little or no system. The league, also will aid Miss Throsa Becks in getting some new maps for the history department. It will be remembered that last spring, this league sent a committee of citizens to call upon the school board, relative to a new high school building. The Committee that was sent was Messrs Jeff Bryant, Dr. Stuart Scott, John Miller and Emmet Shelton to call on the board. The city recently finished the new Robert E. Lee High school, and it was that an opportune to seek relief from the present building on Sunnyside. Charlottesville, Danville, Alexandria, Norfolk, Roanoke and Lexington, all have given their colored citizens new school buildings in the past three or four years.
The D. Webster Davis school on W. Johnson St., and the Booker T. Washington on Sunnyside are both crowded. But seemingly doing efficient work. The respective principals and teachers are doing good work. Both schools are about full. Booker T. Washington, now has a full degree faculty, Miss Threa Becks, of the history department, this summer received her A. B., from the summer school at Union University. She had also spent time in the University of Pittsburgh, after graduating from Virginia Seminary and teaching here. The President of the League Rev. Godfrey Tate, is very anxious that a full house will meet the League at its next meeting, when a program of work will be outlined for the winter months. The League will have a public meeting in the future, when a drive for new members will be made.

The Membership Workers of the National Ideal Benefit Society in Norfolk reached a high pitch of enthusiasm Sunday, October 19, at Mt. Lebanon church. The Red and Blue division, each evinced a great determination to win in this fall membership rally. The Blues, under Captain Purvis showed a greater fighting spirit than had hitherto been exhibited. There was a considerable increase in their attendance. Devotionals were conducted by Rev. W. C. Booker, of Queen of Norfolk lodge. A sweet and charming solo was rehearsed by Mr. P. J. Wilkins in John Purvis gave a fifteen minutes inspirational talk in which he clung tenaciously to his prediction of victory for this division. Captain Elizabeth Clark countered with an appeal for members that electrified her followers.
In a very befitting and timely address Rev. W. C. Booker introduced Rev. J. H. Billups, the pastor of Mt. Lebanon Baptist church. He delivered one of the strongest and most timely addresses it has been our pleasure to hear in a long time. His ringing appeal to our people to arise and o something for themselves will linger long in the minds of those fortunate enough to hear him.
State Deputy A. C. Clark made a brief address on the progress of the organization. A splendid paper was read by Mrs. Sarah F. JJohnson of Independent lodge.
The Reds were put to a flight by the Blue army in collection this defeat to arouse the fighting spirit of the Reds and thus they laid on the table one third more members than the Blues. The battle is growing hot and it is now a conjecture as to who is coming out victorious. An appeal for members was made by Mr. A. G. Olson for the Red division. Mr. Miller spoke for the Blues.
tler spoke to Presentation was made to the passor by Mrs. Mollie Williams to the clerch by Mrs. Pleasant Wyatt.
The fourth stage of this membership drive will be witnessed next Sunday at 3 P. M. at Bettlehem Baptist church. In mind that the great climax of this fall rally will be reopened at Second Calvary Baptist church on the first Sunday night in November with Supreme Master A. W. Holmes as the principal speaker.

DENVER ATTORNEY INSPECTS
LAW SCHOOL AT HOWARD
Washington, D. C., Oct. 18.—Will
Sharrot, Denver attorney, as American
Bar Association adviser on legal
education, Thursday completed his
inspection of the Howard University
School of Law.
Mr. Sharrot will make a report to
the council of legal education and
admission to the par concerning his
investigation at Howard, and gives
assurances that his report will be acted
upon before the end of the present
school year.
The adviser expressed interest in
the school, and confidence in its further
development under the leadership of
Vice-Dean Charles H. Houston.
One of his most gratifying observations, according to Mr. Sharrot, was to find that the president, Mordecai W. Johnson, appreciated the needs of the Law School, and is going to give it full support.
The inspection required two days in the School of Law building, and additional interviews with the president, registrar, and director of public information. This is the first time that a law school devoted primarily to the education of colored students has been inspected by the American Bar Association with a view toward including the school on the association's approved list.
HAYES IN SERIES OF LECTURES AT HOWARD LAW SCHOOL
Washington, D. C., Oct. 15—Arthur Garfield Hays, New York attorney, who was associated with Clarence Darrow in the celebrated Sweet case in Detroit, will deliver a series of lectures this semester in Howard University School of Law.
The subject of Attorney Hays' addresses will be "Civil Liberties of the Law." The series will comprise four lectures occurring at 10:30 A. M., on November 22, December 6, February 28, and March 21 in the auditorium of the Law School at 420 Fifth street N. W.
The law class of 1932 recently elected the following officers: president, Curtis W. Todd; vice-president, Jerry Givens; secretary, W. S. Jackson; treasurer, R. B. Green; paramentarian, J. B. Hopkins.
Last year's class is still intact except for four members who failed to return. T wo new members have been added.
THE HIGH SCHOOL
TROUBLE
(Continued from Page 1)
their dumbness expressed in our
second paragraph above.
The rules put in force by the principal were of the type and character used in all schools here and recommended by the school board. Mr. Townsend says he could not have the street in front of the school closed because the city ordinance forbids the closing of two parallel streets and it was 'absolutely necessary to use the street between the school and the annex, and also that the accident hazard was greater on Leigh Street. He also stated that parents had made objections to certain misconduct manifested by the boys when allowed to fraternize with their girls during recess.
The students pout and say that the white high school pupils are allowed to roam the streets at will and see no reason why they be confined to bounds. The Planet's investigator reports this to be erroneous. The white high school pupils are chasing under the same type of restrictions and there have been some suspensions for infractions of the rules of bounds. We believe Mr. Townsend acted for what he considered the best interests of the boys and girls under his care, and believing this we also are inclined to think that he is open to suggestions for the welfare of the phpls. Therefore the Planet asks the principal to forbive the miscondhet of the phpls and at the same time provide some method by which the girls at least may have the use of the sidewalk in front of Armstrong, within the bounds of the school property.

Smith presented the officers and members of the club and paid to them a high tribute for their support of the club during the year. Mrs. Clara G. Pervall, 1st vice-president read a very excellent paper. Greetings from participating groups were extended as follows: By Mr. J. Thos. Ellis and Mr. Wm. M. Grant, representing the Elks and Reindeers, respectively. Mr. Ellis stated that while he used to be a member of the order founded by the late Rev. W. W. Browne in whose honor the club is named, that he was especially proud of becoming a member of the beneficial club which bears his name. In closing he paid a fine compliment to Dr. Smith and his associates for bringing this club into existence, and not only pledged his support, but also predicted the club a splendid success.
Mr. Grant was likewise delighted to be a member of the club and highly endorsed the remarks of Mr. Ellis. The Mangolia Beneficial Club was represented by Mr. David W.

STAR CAST MAKES MOST OF EMOTIONAL SCENES IN BILLIE DOVE'S LATEST
Although "One Night at Susie's" is not a story dealing with penitentiary life, a number of scenes representative of Sing Sing Prison are shown in this First National production, which comes to the National Theatre on Monday.
John Francis Dillon, the director, obtained a number of exterior shots of Sing Sing for this picture, as part of the action of the story consists of the fact that Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., is sent to the penitentiary for a crime which he did not commit, but for which he takes the blame in order to shield his sweetheart, played by Billie Dove.

A number of short scenes show the gradual breakdown of a prisoner, who at first lives on hope and promises, and then begins to weaken, as his aspirations give wrap under the heavy routine of prison existence.
One of the biggest dramatic moments of the picture comes in the visitors' room at the prison, in a scene between Miss Dove and young Fairbanks. The visitors' room, despite the happiness which visits bring to prisoners, has often been called the "saddest place in a prison," for there emotions run high, and a realization of the terrible loneliness of incarceration is irrefible. Helen Ware, Tully Marshall, James Crane, John Loder and Claude Fleming are among those in the cast.

SOCIETY By ETHEL HARRIS 115 E. Beigh St., Rand 5773-J
To Dot, From Cecelia
It seems that I am about to give you another chapter in the social interests of Richmond. I hope that you are not becoming bored, but rather that you find in them the same interest that I am afforded in relating these incidents. We prefer to believe that monotony has left us at least for a while. More and more homes are being opened each week with that air of southern hospitality. The clubs are certainly affording us a real chance for enjoyment. I think on a whole that few people are objecting to the evident pleasures. The weather gave us something similar to a surprise last week, but we feel that the fires are indispensable, they seemingly add just the tinge that has been lacking.
I said last week that I would tell you something about those elite "Optics". At the time I hardly realized that the pleasure would be mine quite so soon. It does not take much to say that they staged an air which was by far the most outstanding of last week. Their Dinner Dance on Saturday evening is still under discussion. The comments are all decidedly favorable. By means of introduction, allow me to say that the "Optics" are a group of sixteen students, who are unbiased fraternally. So far their roster, carries names of four men from each fraternity. About 7:30 Saturday evening, seventeen couples gathered at Slaughters to enjoy a four course dinner, around a centerpiece of roses. The program consisted of a Dramatic Reading, Robert L. Cooper; Voice, Paul D. Morton; Instrumental, Miss Rose Sully; Dramatic Reading, Miss Sue Clark; Vocal, Miss Alma Clayton; Instrumental, Miss Whilenina Bailep, Robert L. Cooper, Toastmaster.
At 830; the guests repaired to the home of P. D. Morton. The house was transformed to a miniature flower garden. The hosts and their epiphyte were: B. Franklin Kersey, II. President; Miss Harriette Wilson; Robert L. Cooper, Vice-President; Miss Sherley Duiguid; Paul D. Morton, Secretary, Miss Jeanette Booker; Earnest Miller, Treasurer, Miss Marion Page; T. Leo Walker, Miss Whimina Paley; William M. Daniels, Edith Goode; Richard P. Cray, Miss Lucy Harris; Fred Ellis, Miss Mamie Harris; Bernard S. Smith, Miss Sis Branch; Bernard S. Smith, Miss Ima Harris; Wendell Moseley, Miss Rose Sully; Walker Quarles, Miss Dorcas Campbell; B. Addison Cerhas, II, Miss Naomi Hurls. Honorary members: Theodore Tynes, Miss Midred Lee; A. D. Price; Everette White, Miss Alelaide King; James L. Brown, Miss Alma Clapton.
The Union—Morgan game on Saturday, provided an added attraction for the week-end. A number of pleasing personalities were brought into our midt. Miss Annemae Hutchins, spent the week-end with Misses Mayne and Anne Ellis of N. Judah Street. Miss Mary P. S. Smith visited her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John P. Smith of East Clay Street. Miss Emma Forster, spent a delightful day with Mrs. Joseph Forster of N. Bth S. Joseph Pervall, Principal of High School in Farmville, Va. was the guest of this mother, Mrs. Clara Pervall, at Wet Jackson St.

Ches. Washington is reviewing the accomplishments of the Homestead Grays—they deserve it but the illustrious writer needs to tune in on this hot C. I. A. A. Grid race—it's "Deloxe."
Football, football! It's inthe air and dropping around Hovey Field and watching Hucules "30" edition of Fighting Panthers drub the Marylanders for the C. I. A. A. flag staff lead was the season's treat. Thrills galore!
A little fellow called Maxey Robinson line plunged for a terrific peel off to score the Maroon and Steel's first tally. Yup! and it came after three-quarters of the toughes scrap the rangers will have this pear. No can't say that for in due respect to Hampton and Coach Martin's Statesmen use Sneep hill aggregation is in for some more heck.
Snaring passes isn't an ordinary thing and the "Little Gut" Williams comes in for a pat on the back. Why? Well because he tramped 65, yes, sixty-five markers for the consequent 6 points. That boy runs like the "Galloping Ghost."
Lines aren't to be sneered at and Morgan and Union present two of the best in the association. Cap'n Johnny Williams and Smitty seem to keep things sailing—mostly would be plungers and end skirters.
Morgan has a team. Some big, strapping giant of a fellow just had his way. Conrad, I believe, is his name.
Must have been an awful clash when State and Hampton met. The Seasiders presents a collosal array of beef. Why yuh can't even go out for the team if you are a mere little two hundred pounder.

COACH WALLACE O. HAWKINS
By Rupert Picott
To the mighty cheers of more than a thousand spectators, the Virginia Union Panthers renewed a dramatic attack in the fourth quarter of a bitterly fought football game here at Hovey Field, to drive the Morgan Bears into submission, by a secreth of thirteen to nothing.
Union's first tally came after a blocked punt by Smith, the Panther's veteran center and a super-drive by Union's ten second backfield, Robinson, Washington, Williams and Armistead. In this last period, this combination romped, plunged and broke through the Morgan line at will.
Less than three minutes after the first score, "Little Gut" Williams intercepted a Morgan forward pass and reed in "Red" Grange fashion for 70 yards, outrunning the whole Morgan line of defenders for the Ma-
The game marked Virginia Union's third straight victory over rivals in the C. I. A. A. race for championship.
Washington kicking for Union made some of the most beautiful punts of his long football career. He sent the ball sizzling from the kick-off to the delight of the fans fifty yards.
The entire affair was checked full of thrills, Union in position to once. The Union forward well functioned superbly, smearing up the Morgan offering, running attack play after play. Morgan's forward passing outfit worked well once, only to be rudely shaken and broken up by the spectacular 70 yard sport of Williams. The Morgan line took care of itself of the game, but could not stand up under the furious 11 man Panther attack in the last quarter. Line-up and Summary

WILBERFORCE—FISK GAME
The fighting hearts of the Fisk Bulldogs went on parade as the spirits of the Wilberforce mauler were crushed beneath a 12-6 storm here in Sulphur Dell this afternoon before a colorful crowd that travelled from far and near.
Three times the rushing and plunging of Thornhill and Moore, who were the powers of the Ohioans, attack brought the ball within three yards of scoring but the bulldogs held with all the stubbornness o f stonewall. The Wilberforce backs paced up and down the field like wildcats but found it almost impossible to strike when in the shadow of goal. They made thirteen first downs to Fisk two.
The first quarter opened with Cox running 104 yards from kickoff behind perfect interference for the first score, drawing the first blood.
The second and third quarters were periods of thrills by the running of the phantom backs of both teams only to bring on more excitement when the stalwart lines would hold at the goals forcing a kicking

VIOLETS DEFEAT ADELPHI'S Jimmy Christmas Passes Local Team 15-14 In Opening Tilt
Richmonds inter club grid activities opened on Hovey field Monday October 15, when the Violets overwhelmed the Adelphis, 15-0 before a host of city rooters. They camped in the first half beneath the weight of a fast charging Adelphi Eleven by a 14-0 score the violets came back strong in the second half and with the aid of the strong accurate arm of Jimmy Christmas and the receiving power of Winfrey flea to a 15-14 win. The Violets flicked off in the first half and the Adelphis. A befuddled violet aggregation could not stop the onslaught and ere the first half was over Burfess and Harris had run up another touchdown and extra point. Calling time Christmas pulled his squad together and finished the half on even terms.
In the second half the Adelphis began the same touchdown march and nestled the ball on the violets 2 yard stripe but lost it on four attempts o score. Christmas received the ball and completed a 40-yard aero gain to Winfrey and in three tries placed the oval beyond the scoring marker. On the next kick-off the Adelphis lost the ball on the fumble and the Violets pass combination reeled off another touchdown with the extra point. In the third quarter with the score fourteen the Violets came from he rear to block Adelphis kick and score a safety to win the game.
MORRIS BROWN ALA. STATE

Montromery Ala., Oct. 17.—Coming back from Atlanta where they dropped a close decision to Morris Brown last week, Coach Lewis and his Alabama State Teachers College Hornets ran an skipped like mad men and drubbed the Alabama A. and M. Gamecocks here tonight to the tune of 46-6. The contest was a twintight affair and the Hornets swift looks looked like galloping ghosts as they leaped and twisted under the candle lights for long and spectacular runs.
duel.
The last period found the versatile Thornhill, one time Fiskite, running his mates against Harding, the viewpoints this was a great interest to many veteran fans of both teams. The game went up 6-6 as Moore advanced the ball fifty yards assisted by Thornhill, striking eighteen yards for touchdown. But the bulldogs were not to be denied and after an exchange of several punts carried the Ohioans in ar door down the field. Moore broke through the line to stop Thornhill on his six yard line. Moore dropped back to kick. Pierce broke through blocked his kick behind the goal and paved the wap for Wyatt Slaughter to make himself the hero of the fray. This ended the scoring as Fisk emerged ahead 12 to 6.
By J. G. St. C. Drake
Hampton Institute, Va. Oct. 18.
Disappointment, complete and overpowering, reigned in the citadel or C. I. A. A. supremacy last Saturday, when Gid Smith's smashing Ironmen tore and rammed their way through the Statesmen's ranks to blast Virginia's hopes with a 25-12 victory.
State fought 'tis true, gallantly, with every device at her command, placing fine forward passes, rushing around the end for long gains and working trick plays, but all to no avail, except at the outset when Howe brought Briggs punt out to Hampton's 37 yard line and Dabney mad efirst down on Hampton's 25 yard line. "Heavy Bounds" then galloped 20 yards around his left end, and after two more towns crashed over the line to register C-0 against Hampton.
State's only other score came in the last quarter, when gatering their final wind, the Petersburg boys, by a half-dozen forward passes sailed through second second string for a successful eighty yard aerial attack. A five yard penalty on Hampton put State a half yard from the goal and Bounds rolled over the Hampton defense to score the second and last touchdown.
After State's studen and surprising score in the first few minutes the Seasiders settled down and dire events began to unfold. Jones an Guess, running mates of 1928 wore in perfect condition and made up in smashing power for what they lack in speed. Two, four, three, five, four, two the yards fell before them; three times the sticks moved; and then Chubby Jones rammed his was across for his first touchdown, making the score 6-6.
The next major drive started from almost the same position and was interrupted by the quarter whistle. When the Seasiders came back they got under way immediately, and in three minutes, after a sensational 25 yard run around left end by Guess, the "Galloping Beau" loped through the remaining three yards for a touchdown, and Briggs made the try for goal.
Iron Backs Score Again
The "Ironbacks" come in again at the second half, and after a few artillery manner drivers, Harris called for another drive from State's thirty-five yard line. Chubby Jones began to roam straight through center, then through right tackle, then through left, trampling a line that could not hold the charging Kansas battering ram. He stepped through ready made holes and he bored his own. Having made the four yard line, Harris called on Guess to go through, and he stepped cross the right tackle for the scote. A pass from Scott to Johnson and several substantial gains by Weatherford put Hampton on State's yard line. Hampton could fake play, and as the whole State team plunged for the wrecking man Weatherford leaped to the line and wrigled, bared and stumbled through backfield to make things 25-6.

Octavia Powell was two

Girl in Town."
By RODD MYAR
It was an established fact that she didn't love anyone else. Had never, would never.
Octavia Powell was twenty-three years old in 1912 when she was called for the first time, "The Best Dressed Girl in Town."
It was an established fact that she didn't love anyone else. Ha never, would never.
Our little city consisted of nine thousand in population, good colored schools, lodges and splendid church organizations, such as ladies' aid societies, Sunday school classes with national reputation, and a colored literary club for members who had written but never published their stories. And Octavia Powell was an influential figure among the leaders of these organizations, being the only daughter of very wealthy parents. For a long time I had watched Miss Powell with a growing interest because she was a strong character, energetic, quick to handle any emergency and possessed of a keen intellect. She could have had, for the simple asking, almost any marriageable young man in town.
She was of the slim princess type, light of skin, and nervously energetic. She could deliver a glowing talk, a graphic reading, could act expertly in home talent plays; and on the whole she could accomplish marvels, which she did for good causes, working hard for benefits, hospitals for

crippled children, finding homes for orphans, etc., and she never presented evidence of being weary of engaging in any of these worthy endeavors.
But she always avoided athletics of any nature.
Octavia drove her father's fleet, underslung coupe, sometimes the larger family car. She presented a pretty picture in the dark-red automobile, stylishly gowned in frocks that set off her face and figure advantageously.
But she never married. Many times people inquired, "Now, why, is it Octavia Powell never married?" a question difficult, it seemed, even for those who knew her like a book to answer.
Then, one day I found out.
She was the victim of an organic heart ailment and the doctors had pronounced her case hopeless. She said when interviewed: "What's the use? I may live fifty years longer, and I may die tonight; therefore it
would be criminal of me to marry some young man for love and to be taken away from him when he needed me most."
"Have you ever been in love?"
She smiled. She had a way of smiling with her eyes that made one's pulse quicken.
"I am in love now," she answered.
There was a pause.
"Does the man know it?"
She nodded.
"Of course," she confessed; "and he loves me."
"Then why not take a chance and marry him?"
The interrogation brought a frown to those fascinating eyes.
"It would be terrible to even think of doing it."
There was, possibly, some truth in that.
"Has he asked you to marry him?"
"Yes," she admitted, "many times."
"And your answer will always be the same?"
"Always," she whispered.
I took from the polished piano bench my hat and stick and prepared to leave.
Shadows darkened the long music room. Birds twittered outside; a breeze fanned the crimson hangings at the long windows, the day was in the last blaze of its glory.
"Would a marriage endanger your health?"
"The doctors say it wouldn't," she said simply. "But I don't consider it a fair proposition and have shut marriage out of my life entirely. But, of course, I have suffered, as any woman would. The young man and I have loved and lived a beau-

"There has never been a sweeter story, I think," she murmured. "Stop and consider. A young man desperately in love with a young woman who refuses to marry him because she is afraid her health will fail her when he needs her most. Days of dreadful waiting. Seeing each other, long walks, driving, even sometimes dancing, but never coming to any new decision other than the one the girl has made. If you can picture that, then you have some bare idea of what we are going through. But I'll never change my mind. There can never be anything between us. You understand?"
Certainly. Who wouldn't? Who couldn't understand that she had a strong character? This would be obvious to anyone who understood human nature.

cheering, rattle of sleighbells, the rattle of tin cans . . . Aye! a wedding!
Who—?
The next morning the truth was all over town. Octavia Powell's young man had married another girl. . .
Too bad.
It was barely possible that she escaped a broken heart. But it didn't seem plausible that she had escaped it. Maybe the unfortunate turn of affairs would send her to a premature grave. But not so. She went on living, day in and day out, exactly as she had lived in the past. It was known that she had released the young man she loved from everything; had even advised him to marry, yet loving him herself, with all her heart and soul.
It must have been terrible—Everybody wondered if he loved the other girl as much as he had loved—or still loved Octavia Powell.
It was an established fact that she didn't love anyone else. Had never, would never—
She sat on the comfortable porch under striped awnings in the summer time and in the generous French windows in winter, watching, with a wistful expression in her eyes. She is still doing that. Passing the Continued on Page Four
SENTIMENT and SOCKS By James A. Garner A Red Blooded Story of Courage and Strange Ambition

Well, that fifth round was the saddest I have ever seen. Larkins full of fight. Hawkins was as full gamecock.
Well, that fifth round was the best and perhaps the saddest I have ever seen. Larkins sprang from his corner full of fight. Hawkins was as full of determination as a gamecock.
They came together like steam engines and leather flew furiously for a few seconds. Larkins straightened up and sent that left jab to the champion's forehead and from all appearances was leading forward to bring a right swing to the same place when Hawkins, seemingly going backwards, let fly a right hand swing that started from his knees and stopped solidly on the young lad's jaw.

But . . . (I would like to use the expression we used at the ringside, but such language must not be used in polite society) there was that same big black in his corner and he was giving
And Johnnie never delivered that right he started. Instead, he just did a backward flop and landed on his back. He did not twitch until the referee was counting seven; then he raised his feet from the floor instead of his head. That seemed glued there for he did not move it once during the three seconds that followed. He crossed his legs and moved like a wrestler in distress, but the upper portion of his body reminded one of a Gulliver bound from the waist up.
Three seconds after he started to squirm cheers went up for the champion who had defended his title against the only man who had a chance to take it from him. One minute later and another cheer went up for the man who had met his first defeat in the squared circle. This last, I believe, was greater than the first, for all were in sympathy with the lad whom Gans had taught.
We yelled to him to try again, but deep down within us we knew that unless he changed his chief second or his style of fighting back to his former demonstrations he was to go down to defeat again. Nevertheless we yelled for him because we liked him and hoped him all the success the admiring fans ever wished a fighter.

Children will fret, often for no apparent reason. But there's always one sure way to comfort a restless, fretful child. Castoria! Harmless as the recipe on the wrapper; mild and bland as it tastes. But its gentle action soothes a youngster more surely than some powerful medicine that is meant for the stronger systems of adults.
That's the beauty of this special children's remedy! It may be given the tiniest infant—as often as there is any need. In cases of colic, diarrhea, or similar disturbance, it is invaluable. But it has everyday uses all mothers should

Coughs from colds may lead to serious trouble. You can stop them now with Creomulsion, an emulsified creosote that is pleasant to take. Creomulsion is a medical discovery with two-fold action; it soothes and heals the inflamed membranes and inhibits germ growth. Of all known drugs creosote is recognized by high medical authorities as one of the greatest healing agencies for coughs from colds and bronchial irritations.

But . . .

Had not my friends detanied me, I would have gone over and tried to tell the boy to get rid of that man or if he could not, to ignore instruction and do as he had done under the tutelage of Gans. It is just as well, however, that I was kept out of the affair for what followed was a treat that my advice would not have afforded.
Larkins was again the master boxer. He boxed the champion to a stand-still and was using more speed behind each punch than ever before. Four rounds of pokes and punches, swings and swipes, was enough to insure victory under any circumstances short of a knockout. Four rounds of taking blows on his shoulders, ducking others and side-stepping the rest made the champion look like an amateur. But the fight did not end in the fourth. It was billed for eight.
The fifth was a duplicate of that former fifth up to the point when Johnnie took the count. He landed the same sort of blow and was about to follow it with a right when up came that lightning-like right swing. It landed. But just a few inches farther toward the left than did the former so it was Johnnie's nose that caught the blow this time instead of his chin. Again he did the back-

At that moment the big black, whom I disliked, yelled as if his life depended upon the result of his life:

The spell of the silence was broken. We all laughed.

When Food Sours
Sweeten the stomach—instantly
About two hours after eating many people suffer from sour stomachs. They call it indigestion. It means that the stomach nerves have been over-stimulated. There is excess acid. The way to correct it is with an alkali, which neutralizes many times its volume in acid. The right way is Phillips' Milk of Magnesia—just a tasteless dose in water. It is pleasant, efficient and harmless. It has remained the standard with physicians in the 50 years since its invention.

Through the dense fog of his emotion came the heavy tread of someone approaching the cabin. Slowly Carl disengaged Elmira's arms from his neck.
"What is it?" she whispered hoarsely.
"Be quiet!" Carl commanded. He sprang from the girl's side silently, but before he could reach the door Peco stuck his head into the room.
"Carl?" the newcomer called gruffly. "Carl, is you there?"
Carl tried to keep the unsteadiness caused by his recent emotion out of his voice. "Yes, Peco," he answered sharply. "What do you want?"
"You ast me whut business I got follerin' you?" he demanded, his voice thick with rage. "Well, I got plenty business, you cheap wench! I cole trailed you f'm de scronch. I knowed you was comin' heah!"

Elmira comes to the scales as soon as Toto leaves and tells Carl the latter is a bad woman, and hints that she, Elmira, would be glad to Carl's affections. Hotshot warns Carl that Toto has designs on him, but Carl only laughes and says he hopes she has.
"Is Elmira in there?" Peco demanded, peering vainly into the darkness of the room.
Carl was silent for an instant, trying to decide what to do. Elmira herself decided the issue.
"Yes, Elmira's here," she cried angrily. "What business you got follerin' me 'round?"

The Fight Over Elmira
The girl's words seemed to sting Peco into a fury. He sprang to her and struck her. At once Carl seized him, and with a deft twist, pushed the enraged swain out of the door. "You can't beat her—at least, not while I'm around," Carl told him. "And besides, she isn't your wife, after all. Why don't you go on home and think it over?" Peco stood with hanging head. Elmira strolled to the door with an air of insolent triumph, and put her arms around Carl. "I got a new daddy," she told him coolly. Carl tried to push her away, but Peco, misunderstanding the action and thinking that Carl was flaunting his conquest, sprang at him with an inarticulate snarl.

him, Peco's blow struck Carl fully in the face. He staggered back, and as Elmira released him with a shrill cry, he leaped at his antagonist. Peco met him half-way, and the two men came together with a swift impact of thudding fists.
In spite of the fact that he had been hit by the other youth, Carl felt no anger, and so tried to fend off Peco's blows without returning them. Seing this, Peco thought that the weigher was afraid of him, and with increasing fury he launched blows and taunts at him.

"Let me loose, then," Peco demanded sullenly.
Carl Fells Peco
Believing that his opponent intended to cease fighting, Carl released him. At once Peco struck the weigher in the stomach, felling him. As Carl went down the other man launched a heavy kick at his face, but the fallen youth twisted away and rolled over rapidly as he strove to get away.
Peco followed, kicking at him and cursing him, in the evident belief that he had won the fight and that Carl was thoroughly beaten. With a deft motion the weigher once more gained his feet and faced Peco. "We'll fight now!" he said with icy coldness. As the words left Carl's mouth Peco swung heavily at him, but with the

quickness he had learned in his boxing class, Carl side-stepped and drove a sharp blow to Peco's middle. The latter doubled up with the pain of the blow, and taking his time, Carl smashed a severe jolt to Peco's jaw. Peco dropped limply to the ground, moaning.
"Don' hit me no mo', Mistah Carl," he groaned, covering up his face with his arms. "I done got enuff."
"I'm not going to hit you again, Peco." Carl told him, his anger leaving him rapidly. "I didn't want to hurt you in the first place."
The fallen Peco lifted himself gingerly from the ground.
"Help him back to his cabin, Elmira," Carl commanded gruffly. The girl regarded him in startled and unbelieving surprise. "But you done whupped him," she exclaimed. "Do what I tell you!" Carl said sharply. Piqued, Elmira went slowly to her beaten lover, and putting her arms around his shoulders, spoke softly to him. The two went into the woods with arms entwined. Carl gazed after them for a moment, then sighed deeply. He was a little disgusted by his part in the affair, but also he felt that surging jubilation which

sent Hawkins to the floor with a bang.
There was no silence as the champion was being counted over and out. The throng for the most part kept yelling, "Git up, Ray! For Gawd's sake, Git UP!" while those who were not yelling for the defeated champion, were shouting their approval of Larkins's quick recovery from the floor.
In the meantime Larkins went over to his corner and listened to his big black second. Funny, but as the lad stood there with bleeding nose and listening ear, his knees shook a bit and that bronze brown of his skin seemed to turn ashen. As the referee counted the last of the seconds and started toward the lad who was now a champion, Young Larkins fainted and had to be carried to his dressing room.
Leaving my friends, I went to see just what had happened to the lad. I had difficulty enough reaching him and perhaps would not have seen him, had not the promoter on the same errand recognized me. When we finally reached Johnnie's locker we asked the trouble and the big black informed us that Johnnie was scared to death because he had knocked out a man.
"Weil, he's not hurt badly?" I asked the second.
"No, suh. Just got kinder scared while he was lookin' at the champ takin' the count," replied the black.
"Maybe if you yell at him like you did when he was down out there it will bring him to." I suggested.
"I reckon you'd a yelled too ef you had your week's pay of ten dollars bet on dis kid."

All of these very interesting questions are discussed in Rudy's sincere work which might well serve as an inspiration to future and aspiring crooners. The book reads just like Rudy broadcasts, to wit, "Heigh Ho everybody, this is Rudy Vallee, and Rudy Vallee alone, writing with simple and sincere dignity."

How to Be A Radio Crooner
By THE BOOKER
VAGABOND DREAMS COME TRUE. By Rudy Vallee, illustrated. Published by E. P. Dutton & Co., Inc., 300 Fourth Ave., New York City.
Once upon a time there was a young fellow who wanted to be a great saxophone player. So he bought himself an instrument and began his long and successful quest for fame and wealth. For fear that you might not know our hero, we will tell you beforehand that his name happens to be Rudy Vallee. Bet you never heard of it before!
That Rudy has "tooted" himself into world-wide fame is a fact well known to all who have ever turned a sympathetic ear to a radio. But the facts accompanying the rather romantic rise of this young heart-tickler have been chronicled in a delightful and airy auto-biography of the crooner. Rudy tells in unabashed manner where he obtained his first inspiration, just what effect his college education has had upon his ability to croon so everyone likes it, and many other facts which undoubtedly would thrill the innocent young maidens (as if there were any innocent young maidens) as well as bring to the neglected wife a vicarious romance that serves well to stimulate a distinctly pre-marital silliness.
Did you know that Rudy was a graduate of Yale University? Did you know that his fan mail almost surpasses in bulk and intensity that of the master lover of all times, Rudolph Valentino? Did you know also
Why the Best Dressed Girl in Town Never Married
(Continued from page one)
house this morning, I tipped my hat to her. She waved. Still unmarried. But she looks as strong and healthy as she did eighteen years ago.
The doctors said she was waiting for the end, and had the wrong mental attitude. She had sacrificed her right to be happy. A marriage wouldn't have hastened the end any, they stated. Maybe. But she shed tears in the night, and suffered where eyes could not see remaining beautiful in spite of the ordeal she was living through. There wasn't enough savage love in her breast for her own good. Think what she could have gained by marriage in those eighteen years.
There has never been any other man in her life. There never will be. But that is why the best dressed girl in our town never married. Whitens Skin 7 Shades in 7 Nights or Money Back

"Before I began taking your medicine, I was a nervous, tired, broken-down woman with very little energy. Nothing seemed to do me any good. One of my friends suggested that I take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I began. After taking two bottles I felt like a new woman. Now I am on the road to success. I highly recommend your good medicine to all suffering women.

"I guess I would," I agreed, then asked, "What was your idea in sending a man like Larkin in to knock out a man like Hawkins? He's the hardest and fastest hitter the folks have seen around here."
"I likes quick money. I does. And what is the use of working half an hour when you can get you money in less time? I tried to tell the kid that, but he wouldn't listen the first time. And what happened? You seen it all. Thar he laid on the floor and this bird Hawkins was going home wid the money before my boy knew the fight was over.
"And would you believe me, suh, that fool kid tried to tell me that Hawkins did not mean to hit him. He said it was an accident—that Hawkins was just trying to keep his balance from the wallop he got on the head when his hand comes up all aimless like and hit my boy on the chin. Well, suh, I nearly died from laffin' when he told me that. I reckon he saw tonight 'twon't no case o' catchin' his balance." He turned from me to see how the lad was coming along.
"Gee! Did you see his face?" It was Johnnie who spoke. He had recovered and sat with one foot on the floor and the other leg at length on the rubbing table. "Did you see it?" he exclaimed hysterically. "I really never would have done it if he hadn't tried to hit me the same as he did the last time."

Then, too, Pluko keeps it straight and beautiful. Your hair is so soft in texture, so easy to arrange that you can dress it in any style you like and have it stay in place the whole day through. Delicately-fragrant, it lends a finishing touch to perfect grooming. Try Pluko today.
Tom looked at me with a sort of grin and nodded toward the boy.
Stubborn Coughs Ended by Recipe, Mixed at Home
Here is the famous old recipe which millions of housewives have found to be the most dependable means of breaking up a stubborn, lingering cough. It takes but a moment to prepare and costs little, but it gives real relief even for those dreaded coughs that follow severe cold epidemics. From any druggist, get 2½ ounces of Pinex, pour it into a pint bottle and fill the bottle with plain granulated sugar syrup or strained honey. Thus you make a full pint of better remedy than you could buy ready-made for three times the cost. It never spoils and tastes so good that even children like it.
Not only does this simple mixture soothe and heal the inflamed throat membranes with surprising ease, but also it is absorbed into the blood, and acts directly upon the bronchial tubes, thus aiding the whole system in throwing off the cough. It loosens the germ-laden phlegm and eases chest soreness in a way that is really astonishing. Pinex is a highly concentrated compound of genuine Norway Pine, containing the active agent of creosote, in a refined, palatable form. Nothing known in medicine is more helpful in cases of distressing coughs, chest colds, and bronchial troubles. Do not accept a substitute for Pinex. It is guaranteed to give prompt relief or money refunded.
"D'yer hear that?" the man asked. "He thought that the champion was too kind to put him to sleep in less time than his mother. Yes, suh, up to now he was the perfect fool of the boxing game!" _____
