Majority Of Republicans
Although the Democratic party
has been IN power IN the CITY for
seven years there is still a pre-
ponderance Of Republicans IN the
two forces. Mayor Kern SalU
With approximately 30 mere Re

Is made up. the Mayor explained.
Members of the merit commission
said that they felt that re efficien
operation OF the new system might
be hampercd by the fact that the
City Council had seen INT TO au-
thorize the appointment of only five

OF the four for each department
asked by the ordinance as intro

number to thee for the police and
two for The FIRE department Tor rea-

SERMONETE
Rev. :. 7. Hiehbauqh


It is not often that I take a mere
name ana endeavor to preach a
sermon from # but venture such
tonight and my venture is based
on a deep appreciation Of the ster-
ling qualities Ia this great soul.
For in many things I have rated
her courage far above even that of
Ruth's.
First here is a great woman who
knew how to love other than her
own race. She knew how to, when
In Moab. imbihe the Moabite spir-
it while her Judesn patriotism still.
burned. The question naturally
comes, have you learned yet how
to treat other races? Can you
meet white and black on the same
level irrespective Of color? VIII
Naomi had learned just that and
gives to the world her noble ex-
ample.
Again her soul had been SO bur-
dened that she was not fearful of
her sons marrying beyond the pales
OF her religious circle. She had
concluded that If Jehovah were
truly God as he was that eventual
" ne would even convince the Mo-
abites Of the truthfulness of his re-
ligion. Daily we see Catholics and
Protestants, Methodists and Bap-
fist Homes at war because of re-
ligious difference. Look thou mar
row fighters at the great soul Of
Naomi and be wise.
And then lastly. watch how very
smoothly she uses the most Cruel
ling experience, sorrow. as she con-
soles and guides those two daugh-
ter-in-laws to her God. She has
used the home going of her hus-
band and sons to be a blessing to
her whole race. Truly my friend,
this life is worthy of the greatest
emulation.

AGAINST
BISHOP VERNON
ARE TO Be HEARD.

KANSAS CITY, Kans. ny Da-
Wis Lee for AMP Attempted
rape, forcing girl employees and
students TO submit to his base de-
sides. and betraying Western uni
veraity into the hand Of Kansas
politicians, are Just a few Of the
charges to be brought against Bi-
shop w. T. Vernon, supended A,
Me. bishop and superintendent Of
Western university. to make his
suspension permanent at the next
General Conference this writer has
learned.
According to records Of Judge
fuckers court here. a matron, a
music teacher and several other
women left the school rather than
submit to Bishop vernon's contin-
ued advances. One Of the young
ladies brought the charge of at
tempted rape against the Bishop.
Because of the alleged weakness
of the prelate for young women,
several mothers are said to have
stopped their daughters from at
tending the school.
Charges and counter charges
anent the betrayal Of Western uni
versity into the hands Of Kansas
politicians goes back several years
the A.M.E. leaders say. Accord
ing 70 them, the university was
buiit by the A.M.E. Church. Some
years after the school had been
built Bishop Vernon succeeded in
getting the state of Kansas and
the church to form a partnership
in its operation. The bin is alleg-
ed to have been written by Bishop
Vernon. It was passed by the leg
isiature and money appropriated
for the establishment of an indus
trial department and the erection
of suitable buildings.
However, after his suspension Of
the last general conference for al
legedly taking 1850 of the mon
ey belonging to the church, Bishop
Vernon is alleged to have engin-
eered break between the church
and state to the extent that the
church was forced to close West
ern university.
This came about because Afri-
can Methodists all over the coun-
try protested against the state re-
tanning Bishop Vernon as superin-
tendent of the state industrial de-
partment of the university after
his suspension.
Governor Landon of Kansas, an
aspirant for the Republican presi-
Dental nomination, despite the
charges of immoral conduct ag-
ainst Bishop Vernon and the pro-
test of the A.M.E. Church, has re-
fused absolutely to move him; and
according to the leaders of the
church, the state has assumed
complete control over the school.

BY HENRY McLEMORE United Press Staff COrreSpOndenf

Princeton, N. J., Nov. 25.-(UP)- Somewhere in this lovely little snow- blanketed city is an All-American lineman, walkinga round in 8 gray overcoat, a derby hat, and a dark brown hangover.
 He doesn't know he's an All- America player, but the 5000 per- sons who watched Princeton defeat Dartmouth here Saturday, 26 to 6, do. For they saw the unknown All America, just as Princeton was about to buck over its fourth touchdown, leap from the stands and, running surefootedly through the snow, take his place in the Dartmouth line.
 Down he dropped between the Dartmouth tackle and guard on the left side of the line, coat-tails fly- ing in the freezing wind, derby cooked over one ear. Even with snow falling in thick, enveloping flakes, it was hard to distinguish Dartmouth's twelfth player. For, just before the ball was snapped, he abandoned his crouch for an upright stance and stood squarely on his feet, breath ing alcohol and defiance on the Princetons.
 The Old College Try.
 He beat his gloved hands above his head, yanked his derby down over his ears like 8 headquard, and told the Princetons to come on and try hls side of the line. Even as gendarmes rushed from the stands to lay violent hands on the new conner to the battle, the ball was snapped and Jack White, Princeton halfback, tore into hte line for a touchdown.
 But NOT through our friends side of the line. With the snap of the ball the twelfth man made a charge which carried him through the surging Princeton line and spinning on out into the open snow. As he landed his derby flew off his head and his head rammed into 8 drift. The officers of the law, on hand now, gathered him up rudely and rushed him off the field and through an exit.

Chicago sur- prised Illinois, 7-6, and Northwest era and Iowa battled to score- less tie.

New York and Green Bay Teams Favored; Bears,
 Lions in 20.20 Tie

New York, Nov. 25-(UP)-The New York Giants and Green Bay Packers were favored today to win the sectional titles in the National Football League and meet in the playof game for the professional championship Dec. IS.
 The Giants held the Eastern divi- sion lead by defeating the Philadel- phia Eagles, 10-0. Ed Danowski threw a 20-yard pass to Tod Good win, who ran 35 yards for the Giants only touchdown. Ken Strong converted. Harry Newman added a 15-yard field goal in the last period.
 Green Bay maintained its Vest ern division lead by winning from the Pittsburg Pirates, 34-14. George Sauer made 75-yard run after in- tercepting Pittsburgh pass.
 The Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions battled to 8 20-20 tie. The Bears had a 62-yard touchdown run by Beattie Feathers called back be- cause of holding. Bill Karr scored all Chicago touchdowns on passes. Clark, Klewicki and Shepherd scored Detroit's touchdowns. Clark, Caddell and Shepherd were the leading stars in the Lions attack.
 Two field goals by Bill Smith, one from the 35-yard line in the first period and one from the 19- yard line in the final period, en- abled the Chicago Cardinals to win from the Boston Redskins, 60.

To-day:S Sports Parade

His removal was an error. Dart mouth needed him; needed his en- thusiasm and his tremendous drive. In that one play he demonstrated he was the best Dartmouth hneman on the field. For he was the only big Green player to burst straight through the great Princeton line all afternoon. Had he been in there earlier he might well have held the Princeton score to two touchdowns.
 Mysterious
 We stayed here to-day in an ef- fort to learn the fellows name for we want to put him on our All- America. Even handicapped as he was, with 8 flowing fleece overcoat, gloves and derby which wouldn't stay on, he was the standout of the Dartmouth forward wall. Given a uniform, a week of coaching and two more pulls out of his bottle, and he'd hold his own with any rum ming" guard in the country. He'd simply "bottle" up the opposition.
 Dartmouth, too, probably wants to know his name. For when the var sity letters are awarded next spring, he should get one. A big black D. Not since the time of Dartmouth'S founder, Eleazar Wheelock, has any Dartmouth man done as much on one bottle of rum.
