tener, ha dicho una verdadera
autoridad, George N. Brown:
"Yo creo que Max tiene ell me-
jor par de piernas que jamas ha

Max Madhon, entrenador y

Seattle Urban League
To Broadcast Negro
Achievement Program

Beginning Sunday, October %,
fifteen minutes Negro Achievement
program will be broadcast from sta
ton KOL, under auspices of the Sc
attic Urban League. The purpose
is to acquaint the public with the
history and accomplishments of the
Negro race and help bring about
better inter-racial understanding.
The program will center around a
speaker who, each week, will present
some outstanding Negro achieve
ment or personality. The remain
der of the program will be made up
of some of the finest musical talent
available.
The idea is not new one as 1t
has been very successfully carried
out In New York and it is expected
to be as equally successful here. 1t
will not only serve to educate the
public as to important facts about
Negroes, but it will also afford local
talent splendid opportunity to get
before the public. The League is
asking persons who are interested
to telephone or come into the office
for further information. Main $3.50
