DR.. G. V. Roman has recently re-
turned from an extended trip through

state associations, n in Mississippi,
and another in Georgia. DR.. Roman
was very favorably impressed with the
sentiments expressed by those mem
hers of the associations he visited who
are Meharry graduates in regard to the
proposed Hubbard Infrmary. DR.. RO-
man was the special invited guest Of
the Mississippi association, and deliv-
cred an address that Is attracting
widespread attention. He said In
part:
"Adaptability to environment is a
necessary condition Of existence and
is one of the essentials of fitness as
used in the oft quotated phrase Sur
vival of the fittest." This is true both
physically and socially of all terres-
trial life, from the minutest ephemera
whose universe is a drop of water or
a particle of dust and whose genera
tions are as the tick Of your watch to
that soul of the world, that moral
and intellectual sensorium Of nature

and who dreams of Immortality.
"Man has solved all the problems
of existence except his own; and mas
tered everything but himself. The on
ly real n to mans peace and hap
piness now is man; and the only rea,
problem Of life to-day is mans rela
tion to man. This is the race prob

ATTELL RETAINS
The CHAMPIONSHIP

lby lgoe In The New York American)
A pretty fuss the Driscoll-Attell
fight of Friday night has stirred up
It's all about that dtle that Abe has
possessed so long. Abe felt so sure
the Welshman would bite the dust
that he said as he signed for the
match that he was satisfied to let the
title Of champion go with the decision
Now Abe wishes to goodness that ne
hadn't made any such rash promise.
He doesn't like to hear Jem called the
featherweight champion of all the
world.
Mr.. Driscoll won fairly and square
ly-but In ten rounds, and not at the
featherweight limit as we count it in
America With all Abe's cocksuroness
we may still point him out as the
champion. even though he had To- low
er his colors to the masterful Briton.
Technically. Abe is as much the feath-
eyes on the Welsh ghost-just as
much the rightful monarch In his d.
vision as Bob Fitzsimmons is or was
in the middleweight class. Neither
has been defeated at the weight f1tz
never met his match at the correct
notch, nor has Abe.
There isn't any doubt now that Jem
can come in under the stipulated
notch. He has been paying hide-and-
seek with us in that respect, and 1t
wasn't until the news appeared on this
page alone that the public learned
that he was within pound OF the
American limit all the while.
In ali justice to Abe a return match
must be brought about. Ais fair In

should be carted of by the English.
