CASEY AUTHOR NOT
MEMBER OF TEAM
corrects Error In Article in Air Station
News About Basket Ball
Controversy.

Editor Pensacola Journal:
In the Air Station News of Feb. 5th.
an article starting I'VE read with amaz-
ing interest is in error as to the author
of the article which 1t discusses. The
author is not a member of the K. of G.
basket ball team. but he is a X. of c.,
and his brain Keeling expressions as
they are termed in the Air Station News
were in answer to other brain reeling
expressions that were signed by "A
Sailor" The News however does not
quote the sailors article, and admits
that it is not even acquainted with the
nature of same. but is willing to wager
that anything that may have been said
was from standpoint of genuine pride
in the Air Station sporting organization"
Had the News been acquainted with
the nature of the article in question we
feel sure that it's remarks would have
been modified, for to say the least. the
author of same has, or. at least had.
very poor way of expressing his genuine
pride.''
No doubt the Air Station personnel
can be justly proud of their team but
so can the X. of c., and when "a Sailor
states that if II wasn't for the coined
ians on their team who viii amuse the
crowds while playing all around the K.
of G. II would be n shame to- take the
money because the game would be too
one-sided to be interesting" etc.-he is
doing more than showing personal pride,
he is casting a reflection upon the ball
playing ability of the X. of c. team. And
when he further states that the X. of c.
do not back up their team, that they
are (the Air Station) going to appro-
pirate crutches for the X of c. team
after the game, that the author of this
article is coffee percolator spouting out
the wrong spiggot, and suggest that the
X. of G. team supporters bring handker-
chiefs to weep in. that we are bunch
OF ham-and-eggers, serving lolly pops
and tea between quarters, and various
other belittling remarks its about time
somebody's ire was aroused and at least
to the degree to giving vent to a little of
the same brand of genuine pride" on
the part Of the X. of C.
If the author of said article in the
Air Station News will bother to acauaint
himself with the entire controversy, he
no doubt will find sufficient material for
twice as much amazing interest" as he
has shown over the article which he
quotes.
As TO the last part of his remarks, we
agree with him that 1.-THE best advice
to all parties concerned is to cali the old
axiom that he who laughs last laughs
loudest and abide by it's teachings"
(Signed) A. X. OF C.
