the fraternity, President Harding
wrote that the results Of the FIRST

to justify the repetition of the effort
this year. THE need for effective
work to reduce illiteracy among the
coIored people" he added, sis very
great and manifestly it can be ae-
complished chiefly through the equip
ment of members of the colored race
to do educational work among their
own people. You may be sure of
my earnest sympathy and good will.
Last year 1000 Bsembers of the
Alpha Phi Alpha located in all parts
of the country carried the gospel of
stay in high school, and ego to col
lege" to 500 schools, 700 churches
and to a half million parents and

nifty to reach one million pupils this

WHAT'S THE BIG DEAq

This week, in Jacksonville, Ind, q
white man was given a sentence of ten
years in the penitentiary for marrying
a colored woman. We suppose His
Honor, the judge, who gave the sentence
was applying the law. If that is true II
means the great State of Indiana has 8
law forbidding marriage between white
and eOlored people, which followed to
its logical conclusion means that the
sovereign State of Indiana endorses and
upholds bastardy and all its attendant
immortality.

convinced the big New York pro-
mioters that he can fight, that he has
a good chance to connect with bout
with the Frenchman.
Wilson would prefer to fight Car
pentier in America, but rather than
forego a match would cross the At
lantic and meet Carpenter on his own
stamping ground. He is confident that
he can defeat him.
The world middieweight champion.
however, will not be able to fight for
quite a spell as yet, owing to the fact
that his let hand Is on the shelf as
1t were. DIR. p. +. Butler, using the
x-ray yesterday. found that there is q
fracture of the metacarpal bone. The
fracture is at the proximal base.
This means that wilson's bout with

poned. The champion is also nursing
bad right ankle which he injured
while training for the recent bout
with O'Dowd, but kept under .cover
until after the fight, was over.

President-elsct ANGEL of Yale. as the
chief speaker at the annual dinner Of
The Yale Daily News, spoke last
night forsthe first time since his elec-

told the 800 guests what. In his
opinion, a college ought to be. devot-
ing much sof his address to such
activities as athletics.
The great business OF every COL
lege," said DR.. Angel. ''is to furnish
in a four-year period the very best
training, mentally. morally and ply
sically which 1t can offer Its stnd-
ents. think II has been generally
agreed that supcrficialty and medio-
Gritty have been the bane Of American
education. tf.
Whatever the solution. my own be-
lief is that we must in our colleges
by one device or another raise the
level Of serious, prolonged endeavor
and augment markedly the interest
of our students in the world OF ideas
as contrasted with their present In
terests in extra academic affairs and
the mere passing of courses.

Muchic's eye during the middle of the
second round. The sailors optic
closed tighter than a saloon just as

found Muchic's eye puffed and
swollen to such an extent that Bate
man thought IL best to Withdraw him,
and Kelly was awarded the verdict.
Certain it is that Muchic would
probably have been permanently in
jured had Kelly kept swapping at the
bad eye.

show" was the fact that the fans
were entirely satisfied. The adver-
tisement proved a good one. Joe Bate
