eighth annual Honor Roll Of States
free of lynching, the Commission
on Race Relations of the Federal
Council of Churches shows that
forty-three States had q clean rec
ord in 1929. While this number
shows no increase over 1928, when
40 States were similarly recorded
as free of the lynching evil, it
shows a decided increase in COM
parison with the second year OF
the keeping Of the Honor Roll,
1928, when only SO States were
free.
The Honor Roll shows q total Of
ten lynchings during 1929. New
Mexico, which dropped from the
Roll in 1923, has been restored,
and Florida, Kentucky and Ten
nessee have been removed because
Of lynchings in 1929. The number
of lynchings for 1929 shows e re-
duction of one since 1928, when
trehe were eleven victims. OF the
ten persons lynched in 1929, four
were in Florida, one each in Ken

Knoxville Wins Twice
From Bluefield Inst.

Knoxville, Tenn, April rs. -
Knoxville College opened a some
what belated baseball season by
twice defeating Blue6eld on the To-
cal diamond Tuesday and Wednes-
day, April % and 2. Scores were
6-1 and 81.
While Knoxville has young
team early indications are that it
is one of the strongest in the south.
For pitchers Knoxville used Hobson
and Cheatham, each one carrying
through the whole game. Bluetield
was weakest in the pitching box
and Knoxville men were able to
get good hits whenever they were
needed.
Weather for the. games was cold
and probably slowed up the playing
a little as only q fair-sized group
of fans was on hand to see the
teams cross bats.
In the first game Bluefeld start
ed off with a "bang" and was
able to score one run in the firSt
inning, but it proved to be the only
score for the visitors. Knoxville
scattered her scoring through sew
eral innings in the first game. In
