EDITORIAL


the Hen Joseph Alexander by one of
the Governors leading Americans that
We have to ask them TO consider a few
facts.
Governor Pearson is an old Quaker;
be is admittedly a humanitarian. He is
known throughout the United States as
a great educator and one who always
tried to bring the human race nearer to
the ideals of true civilization.
Governor Pearson is from Philadelphia
aad, as far as we know. he has no
Southern background. Books thai tell
who is who in the United States gave
prominence TO the name of Or. Pearson
before he became Governor of these
Islands.
1t is true that the Governor met a
program laid out by Mr. Herbert ID Brown
and which contained rhe things so ne of
us had asked Mr.. Brown TO do for our
people. But the Governor has never
ceased pleading for an enlargement of
the program nor has he failed TO Develop
new plans for the uplift or the people Of
tho Virgin Islands
Because the Director of the Agricul-
rural Experiment Station attacks and
beats a prominent citizen and leglsiator
on the side walk at his business place Is
no reason why we should withdraw our
cooper alton from the Governor in his
work for the upift of the people.
The Governor did not send Mr.
Briggs to do what he did. If he had
engaged his services he would have
directed him to attack Morris Davis who
saws the meanest things about all the
officials and holds them up to public
ridicule and mockery. He would not
send him to quiet. typical Crueian
gentleman,
We agree that of all that has happened
10 emparrass the Governor this act OF
Nr. Briggs is the greatest embarrass-
ment that will have to be overcome
because public feeling holds others
equally responsible for the commission
of this unusual act.
Mr.. Briggs has scored no point fer the
administration. His act is not the sort
that carries any glory with it. Ii makes
the darkest page in the history or
American rule in the Virgin Islands. 1t
should make the Governor weep. that
this happened under his administration.
When on Wednesday Mr.. Briggs meets in
court the crowd who will be there will
not be thinking about him as they
thought six months ago.
They know that he was abused by
men in the public market and ne did not
attempt to attack them. though an at
tack upon them might have been consi-
dered an act of resentment.

Flattens Pill on Tee,

r TITLE has gathered for himself
l. an earned reputation as one of
the very longest hitters in the
amateur ranks and one of the finest
scrappers of the game. A big, husky
youngster Of about %, he steps into
a golf ball with all his ITO pounds
and that ball goes away from there
fast and far. He was the longest
hitter in last years amateur tourney,
and was the only player TO come close
to reaching the seventeenth green in
two shots. Against Somerville the
husky Little belted two wooden shots
that came within yards of reaching
the green on this 580-yard uphill hole
Some of his carries are colossal and
ne spares nothing to give the golf
ball a fast, long ride. Ouimet, the
knowing, experienced captain of the
Walker Cup team, predicts great
things for Larruping Lawson, and
thinks Little and John Fischer are
two of the brightest young prospects
in the amateur game.
With his Army connections Little
will play several games at the Army
Navy Country Club with Maj. Richard
z. Sutherland, the club champion, and
Capt. K, J. Fielder, runner-up to
Sutherland. Both are capable players
But they plan also to arrange games
at other clubs for the long hitter
from the West, who makes his home
in San Francisco.

While in Washington Lawson Little
plans to play most of the courses
around Washington to groove his shots
for the coming joust with Britain's
best. He was chosen for the Walker
Cup team because Of his showing in
the national amateur title chase, at
Cincinnati last September, where he
licked Ross Somerville, the defending
title holder, and went down to defeat
at the hands of the inspired cham
pion-George T. Dunlap-only after
rugged scrap that forced Dunlap to
play at his peak throughout the match.
Five years ago Larruping Lawson
licked Johnny Goodman in the second
round of the amateur championship
after the Omaha youth had sprung
the biggest upset in many years by
trouncing Bob Jones in the first round
at Pebble Beach.
