BY NELLIE DODSON

Now that Joe Louis is married I
don't suppose the incident is i'm
portant, but I finally got the
straight of that "brick-throwing"
affair which the beautiful Elsie
Roxborough staged this past sum-
mer. It wasn't a brick that Elsie
threw through Joe's windshield; it
was the hose of a gas station pump.
Well, for heavens sake! Elsie,
as you perhaps know, has writing
aspirations. She has written
play, so they tell me. She goes to
University of Michigan, where
Homecoming parties are reh-lly
parties,-or so they tell me.
Among the newcomers to the
campus from the Cities: Freddie
Slemmons, Charlotte Crump, Thel-
ma Sayles, Elmer Harris, Reggy
Harris, Sam Reed, Dwight's broth
er y'know, Bert Shannon, Sonny
Bell. Those are the names that
have been given to me, thus far.
If have omitted anyone or made
some mistakes, I'll fix that up next
week. Pm not sure about the out
of-town students yet, so that list
will be held up for week or two.
I do know that besides Horace Bell,
there is another very attractive lad
here from Washington, D. C.
There is third young man whose
name I do not know, and I've seen
two others around the campus dur
ing the week but haven't been close
enough to speak or find out where
they are from. If some more girls
don't hurry up and enroll, Mime
sofa will be a second Iowa with
three fellows to every girl on the
campus. If more of you gels who
aren't interested in school could
get a glimpse of the apartments,
clothes and cars that our college
grad femmes are acquiring for
themselves in the south and east,
you might perk up your interest
in books little bit. And besides,
those gels marry men who are do
ing right well by themselves.

many years, a Negro today had
served on a jury in Louisiana.
The Negro, Robert Smith, was
called for jury duty in suburban
