ways trying to stir up trouble.
We have negroes in the south and
We have white people in the south.
There is no other place undr the sun
for southern negroes but the south,
and the thing to do is to make the
best possible citizen out of him. After
all is said and done there is but one
true friend of the black man, and
that friend is the white southerner.
The thinking. class of'negroes know
this.
While on this subject, did you
know that there is negro woman on
the Confederate pension roll in this
county? There is. She is Aunt Alice
Johnson, widow of George Johnson. l
never knew George Johnson, but he
was a Confederate soldier, and his
widow receives a pension from the
state of South Carolina. I hope some
time The Herald will get write-up
of George. 1t is not necessary to say
that old Aunt Alice is the very salt of
the earth. She has ministered to
so many Bamberg white families that
she has a warm reception at almost
any freside in town any time she
wants it. Long may she live.
Well, The Herald certainly got it's
wish about wanting a lot Of candi-
dates for city council. The air is
charged with municipal politics, and
they do tell me the ladies are going
to vote in full force. Did you ever?
Look out, rotten politics. You are a
past number. When the women get
to voting things are going to happen.
And, let me say that that is fine
bunch of gentlemen who are running
for mayor and aldermen. Old citi-
zens say that it has been many years
since there has been so much interest
in@town politics. You know town
without politics is on the shady side
of progress. am glad to see interest
in the city affairs. I believe that it is
going to mark a new milestone. And
I do hope there will not develop any
hard feelings. That would spoil the
whole thing. Be good sports, gentle
men. Only one mayor can be elect
ed, and we are sorry Of it because
there are several who would make
capital executives.
It does rather seem, though, tnat
slightly too much interest is being
centered in the mayors contest. Don
| forget to select six good and true
aldermen. The best mayor on earth
! can't accomplish anything for the
| town if he has not the right board OF
aldermen. There are sufficient gentle
men on the aldermanic ticket for you
to make good selection. It The
Herald will not consider it advertis-
ing matter, I would offer this sug-
gestion: Don't vote any set ticket

Mr.. Dorsey takes the position that
there must be better relations be-

an article in the The State recently

FOUL TIPS
Ry the Observer.

Governor Dorsey, of Georgia, has
SURPRISED many folks. Surprised
them. because, outside of Georgia,
people did not think much of him
and his prospects as governor. But,
to my mind, Governor Dorsey has
shown himself to be real governor,
the very kind that is needed at this
time The governor has put his foot
fatty down on lynching and disorder
of all kinds, and in this he has gain
ed the respect and admiration of all
peace-loving people. The governor
is now giving special attention to the
evil of lynching, and land knows at
tention to this subje> is needed IN
Georgia. 1t is very likely that. Mr.
Dorsey is killing his political pros
poets, but that is not deterrlng hlm
in doing his duty. 1t is a pity tnat
more Dorseys are not officers now.

New Britain herald., 1921-09-16

The 1921 season which has just been brought to a close by the St. Mary S Parochial school baseball team, was one of the most successful in the his tory of teams representing that school, the club having won 26 and lost but five games during the year.
 Tho team finished second place in the school league, and had the distinc- ton of being the only team to defeat tho Grammar School nine. On Labor Day, the Oriole Juniors of Hartford, who claimed the championship of that city, having won "A out O. 27 games, was vanquished by the locals, score 12 to 1.
 For many years fast teams were turned out at St. Mary's school and annually the club clashed with the nine representing St. Roses school of Meriden. Games were also played with local school teams. After an absence from the diamond of few years, Rev. William A. Downey organized and coached a squad last year which made a very creaitable showing. This years squad came through the season with even a better slate after meeting some of the best junior aggregations in this locality.

PREPARE PLANS FOR
 1922 TENNIS GAMES
National and International Tourna- mentg arc Being Planned as Pres
 ent Season Comes to a Close.

Philadelphia, Sept. 16.-In a wan ing tennis season, plans are already being made for both national and in- ternational play next year. Whi1o off, cials of the U. s. Lawn Tennis asso- citation are not yet in a position to an nounce fixed program, it is known that there will be another season of brill liant play between American and for eign racquet stars in 1922. Among the nations from which Davis cup challenges are virtually conceded next March are Australia, South Africa, Japan, France, Canada and Belgium. With easier financial conditions, it is not unlikely that several other Euro pean and far eastern countries will also enter teams for the international court trophy.
 From the present viewpoint, tho Australian combination appears to be the most formidable for it is known that the Antipodean association plans to send Norman Brookes, Gerald Pat terson, James Anderson and O'Hara- Wood in quest of the cup. Brookes and O'Hara- Wood are expected to pair in the doubles, while the burden of the singles will fall upon Anderson and Patterson.
 Japan will return Kumagae and Shimidzu aa the basis of it's team. From South Africa will come Norton, Blackboard and one other player, while England is likely to send Lowe, Woosnam and two other contestants to be selected from the younger gene ration of British Isles tennis stars.
 Against the foreign invasion which expected to play both in the Davis Cup preliminaries here and the 1922 national championship tournament, the United States may have to secure at least enc additional cup defender. The most logical candidate at present is Vincent Richards, but the Yonkers youth is still growing, having added an inch and half in length this year. He lacks the physical stamina to play gruelling tennis of the international standard, but another 12 months may rectify this handicap.
