virginia's varsity football men
will have a brief rest period be-
fore starting a final week of prep
aration for their last game OF the
season against North Carolina S
powerful team in Chapel Hill on
Thanksgiving.
The Cavaliers hope to be able
to line up against the Tar Heels
with just about the same team
that started off the season Sep
tember 81 by playing William and
Mary to a ScoreleSS tie.
Few Changes
This has been an unusual fall
In that few changes have had to
be made in starting lineupS from
game to game There have been
only IA different men used in
starting positions, and no shifts
at all have been necessary in the
center, guard and end positions
Capt. John Legs, Lynchburg,
va, who has won double noml-
nation for All America, and Cullen
Wilkin, Salt Lake City, Utah, have
started all the nine games played
on the flank positions.
Bill Banks, Beckley, w. Va,
Billy Weeks, Chattanooga, Tenn,
and Leonard Trell, New York city,
have been taking turns in the
tackles. George Seibela, Univer.
Sity, and Alfred Seccombe, Cherry
dale, Va, have been the starting
guards, and Steven Davenport,
Richmond, Va, has been at Gen.
ter for every kickoff.
Backfield Array
In the backfield A. B. Conner,
Hampton, Va, BUS" Male. Clarks-
burg, w. Va, Harry Martin, Char
lotteSville, and Conrad Ring,
Woodstock. Va, have been starters
most of the time, with John
Keagler, York, Pa. and Elexis Nc
Grath, Springfield, ILL.,, each get
ting the call in one game.
Virginia'S Thanksgiving football
finale will be the fortieth contest
played with North Carolina since
the two teams began their series
with pair of games in 1892.
Until he has studied the scout
ing report of Line Coach Butch"
Slaughter, who watched the Tar
Heels against Duke, Head Coach
Gus Tebell won't finally decide
upon his plan for campaigning
against the Carolinians. He will
try to devise as strong a defense
as possible against the running
and passing attack of the Tar
Heels, and will try to arm his
charges with long range scoring
thrusts.

PERSONALITIES
By Nellie Dodson

TO Calk Win rug Luna. rug
was chairman of the conference
and so he was busy young man
but he wasn't too busy to talk
about football. We stood on the
mezzanine floor just after the gen
eral assembly for the $50 delegates
was over, and so we were right
in the middle of a confusion of
young people on their way to the
various discussion rooms for round
table talks. Some of them stopped
to congratulate "Pug" on the deft
way he had cut short the attempt
of radicals to cause disturbance
in the assembly.
The conversation got off to
good start when / told "Pug" that
Homer Harris had fooled every
body and enrolled at Iowa. He
wanted Homer to come here to
Minnesota, y'know. The talk finally
drifted around to Jack Harpole, and
Lund said some pretty nice things
about Jack. He told me that Jack
really knew his football, and that
he had plenty of nerve and cour-
age. There was sincere admiration
in "Pug's" voice when he spoke of
Harp, and so what he said wasn't
just bit of sales talk by way
of making conversation.
The subject of race prejudice in
sports came up, and I'm not exag-
gerating when I say that the boy
was actually angry when he spoke
of how unfair it was that there
should be discrimination in ath-
letics. If there were more fellows
of Lund's calibre participating in
football and other sports, the racial
hurdle would be lowered in a jiffy,
and you can bet your bonnet on
that. Lund seems to have an un-
usually clear-cut picture of the OBJ
stacles Negro athletes have to face.
1 don't know how he has found out
about the situation, but he is GER
tainly we'll informed.
After last Saturdays game, it is
pretty much of a certainty that
Dwight Reed will be one of the
serious bidders for an end post on
the varsity. Newspaper accounts
have been discreetly compliment
tary, but the fact that they have
mentioned Reeds performances at
all has far more significance than
appears on the surface.
Here and There: Rock CAM and
his crew of musicians have signed
a new contract with the Cotton
Club which will last until next
March. The management is re-
modelling the bandstand for them,
and fixing things up very ritzy-ish.

HOSTILITY TOWARD MIXED
FIGHTS ENDS

HOSTILITY TOWARD MIXED
FIGHTS ENDS
Joe Louis is a very lucky
young man for he happens to
be coming along at a time
when there is a scarcity of first
class heavies and when the an
tagonism toward mixed match
es seems to have died out en-
tirely.
Because of the race riots
that followed Jack Johnson's
defeat of Jim Jeffries in 1910,
promoters for years afterward
were chary about staging
fights between white men and
Negroes. The late Tex Richard
adopted hands-off policy af-
ter all the trouble he expert
enced with the Jeffries-J Ohm
son fight which explains why
he never was interested in
matching Jack Dempsey or
Gene Tunney with Harry Wills.
The public once more has
adopted a sensible policy in re-
CARDS to prize fights. Boxing
fans have assumed the atti-
tude, and correctly so, that
when two men meet in the
prize ring they are on the same
footing regardless of whether
they are white, black, brown
or yellow. All the fans ask is,
"Can they fight, and will they
fight"

panion sermon to IL. Rev. ID. w.

Why Is there so little real hap
pineSS? Is II because Of the de-
preston? OF what Is happiness
made? Does 1t consist of money
and lands and possessions? These
and many other questions will be
considered in this topic that all
are interested in. For surely man
was meant 70 be happy. He is
made on a grand and noble scale.
He is mace for the enjoyment Of
happiness. But this brings us back
TO the meaning OF happiness and
you will have to attend the SER

piness Is and where IL Is to be
found" the pastor said.

time to insure complete protection

ASK your physician TO vaccinate
your children. The base period is
when the child is from six months

the danger period begins for them.
When there is a case of diphteria

and always watch the other
children for the least symptoms of
the disease. and have them treated
Immediately with serum when you
have the least doubt that they have

SALES TAX AID
POINTED OUT

Especial 70 Inc dcrhlob
AUSTIN, Jan. ll.-Adoption OF a
constitutional sales tax Of two per
cent. proceeds Of which are to be
used solely for meeting principal
and interest installments on the
more than 100000 worth Of
county, city and district bond issues
In Texas. would take an annual
ad valorem tax load of $3.50. 900
off real estate IN Cameron county,
according to figures compiled by
John T. Smith. Of Austin, tax au-
thority and editor Of the Texas
Tax Journal. who Is author Of the
constitutional sales tax plan. The
figures for this county are based
upon the latest reports filed with
the offices Of the state comptroller
and state auditor.
The bonded debt Of Cameron
county as last reported to Austin.
IN approximately s20.950.000 while
the l93l-l932 levy TO meet debt pay
Eents was sl.259.360.08. For gen.
eral county and local expenses tax
c. amounting to s ! .632. 1908 were
collected. Comparison of the levies
for debt payments and general 10
cal governmental expenses shows
that 43 per cent OF the total collec-
tons OF s 1891 .540.66 went for debt
purposes and 81 per cent went TO
meet general expenses Of the coun-
ty and the cities and tax-levying
districts within the county.
Under Smiths plan, 1t is proposed
that the ad valorem levy to meet
these interest and sinking fund
charges be eliminated and the con-
stituti Jnal sales tax plan be adopt
ed In lieu of IT. Should the con-
stitutional sales tax be voted. real
estate In this county would be re-
lieved of a levy equal TO the amount
now being assessed TO meet these
bond charges.
The sales tax plan. as outlined
by Smith recently before the Tex
rs Legislatures tax program COM
mittee now holding hearings at
Austin, provides for q two per cen
retail aales levy on all commercial
sales. taxing only the final sale.
and limits the use Of this money
to paying off the county and local
bonded debt IN the county where
collected. Smith proposes further
that legislation be enacted prohibit
ing the issuance of bonds In the
future against real estate as secur-
ity.
Adoption of his plan, Smith
points out, will reduce the tax
burden on real estate by an aver
age OF more than So per cent
throughout the state AS a general
average over Texas. according TO
his compilations. of each 500 ad
valorem taxes collected for local
purposes. SIS Is required TO meet
interest and sinking fund charges
on a general average OF bond issues.
This calculation does not include
nd valorem taxes levied for state
purposes

Arts Taught

Other subjects taught include the
art OF fine handwriting, letter writ
ing, the arrangement OF flowers. the
ln~trlcacies Of the tea ceremony, the
manual arts. both foreign and
japanese cooking and sewing. In
one OF the subjects, the girls are
drilled on such social graces as how
TO walk correctly.
Though the stitching on their
japanese garments is done by hand,
the girls learn how 10 operate a
sewing machine. In one of the hall
ways are severed Of the latest sewing
machine models-which are thought
too heavy for the matted rooms.
To the western coed. the course
offered by the Brides school might
be found wanting but these girls
are getting excellent training for the
role they will play as wife. mother.
and hostess. They are the daughters
Of the higher class familieS-which
hold the traditions and culture Of
centuries very dear. They are the
daughters of the families last to
change, although their culture is
SO broad that it can meet the Occi-
dent on its own ground when the
occasion demands.
