a padded imaginary line weighing
about ton which they are made

with other tactics to shape them for
a hard tilt. The men composing the
Aggie eleven after taking part IL

are no individual stars, no man on
the team making any effort to
outstar the other but playin gas one
man, every man given the ball in
the game already played was able
to make his gains with the wonder
full interference accorded iinl by his
mates which has spelled success for
the Poplarville Aggies, 50 far, that
their goal has not been crossed due
to the one man interference that has
been thrown in each game played.
In the backfield, Coach Hale, has
rounded out a set that can cope
with any high school or Freshmen
college elevens. At quarters he has
"Bish" Clarpk, who though light in
weight only scaling 100, can handle
his eleven like vetern at the game.
With good understudy in Rouse
at haifback, there is johnson, who
has rounded into one of the best
backs ever seen in Poplarville togs.
He is able to BATTLE his tacklers with
his running at ends and bale to
buck the line, while Forbes, the
other half has been consistent

every game. While White and ~Rey-
nolds are ready for action when ever
called upon and bale to delives III

SOVIET RECOGNITION

The American Federation of Labor has declared
itself absolutely opposed to recognition of the Russian
Soviet government and believes it would be not only
mistaken policy for the United States but great
wrong to the Russian people,
The federations stand is based on Investigations
made by it's representatives in Russia and the
League of Nations report Russian conditions. 1t
recommends the report making available to every
all the information necessary for thorough
derstandng of the Russian famine and of the condi
tons of agriculture which produced it, as well the
degree of Bolshevik responsibility"
The federation observes further: "An impartial
statement of Russian conditions constitutes veritabe
catalogue of crimes against the masses, and while
American relief should not be denied the Russian
people, any encouragement of the Soviet Regime,
either through financial credit political recognition,
would simply proong the starvation of the Russian
people In proportion as we help the Sovets, we shall
be personally responsible for the continued misery and
death by starvation of millions of helpless Russians.
The view of the federation comedies with the posi-
ton of the federal government and probably with the
position of the general public Recognition wait
until Russia has government, under whatever name
able and willing to function with more efficiency, JUS
tice and honesty, at home and abroad.
