Denver News Saturday, August 6.

The Negro citizens right to share
the privileges of the bathing beaches
in and around Denver has again been
revived, and this time by leading
citizen of the white race-JudSe Boom
NJ Malone, an able jurist and man
ever known to be fearless and fair
has raised the question as to why col
ored citizens are not accorded the
right of bathing at some of the nu-
merous beaches around Denver. HIS
letter appeared in the News OF last
Saturday morning. 1t has resulted i'll
resurrecting II question that was de-
bated with much fervor by the race
lenders a few years ago. On Tuesday
morning a rather forceful editorial ap-
peared in the columns of the News,
and this leads us to the point OF De-
lief that some definite action may be
looked for before another year. just
what this action will be and whether
il will be such as to be satisfactory
all around, is difficult just now to
foresee. However, we expect to give
our views on the matter in the very
near future.

and the Democrat into the Louis
Vile Courier-Journal.
He repeated often the old phrase
that Journalism Ia the art Of
Knowing where hell is going to
break loose next, and having man
there to cover it."
He hated the glossy and the
Snowy things He used to roll
down .othe Courier-Journal offices
In big motor car, wearing a SAL
lor's pea Jacket" instead of an
expensive fur coat.
On the wall of his office where
he Wrote most of his editorials.
there were no pictures Of famous
lights of literature. There was
little more than an old straight
topped desk, stacks of papers
crammed illosically in cubby holes
and inkwell and pen.
He wrote miserable hand. and
most of the printers had a. hard
time setting up his articles. There
were no typewriters in his day and
when they finally came into use he
ignored these and stuck to his pen
much to the disgust of the print
ers.
On one occasion he wrote in an
editorial the words gilt edge
bonds" and the printers read 1t
'geilty edge" bonds and that was
the way it got in the paper. An
other time he wrote in tribute to
an aged citizen of Louisville who
had died ''he has entered the sleep
that knows no waking. The
printers read il "he enters the ship
that knows no shaking" and thus
IL was printed.
Many famous journalists began
their careers under Watterson.
Among the most prominent are
Isaac Marcosson and Irwin Cobb.
