By Marcus B. Christian
I was the lone watcher of civilizations dawn
The power that builded high the Pyramids
I whispered something in the Sphinx's ear
That caused her smile;
placed my hands upon the Sphinx's mouth
To stife laughter.
I nurtured Carthage
I sucked Abyssinia-
I saw the rise and fall of Europe's pride.
I am the pail that was Egypt's-
The might that was Persia's-
The darkness that was Greece's-
The terror that was Romes-~

From the Nurses Notebook
The past week of sunshine with
the promise of new life to all living
things has been a good tonic for
our shut-ins. Many of the patients
were summing themselves on the
pretty lawn at Parkview SAM
tarium. Those unable to get out
made me feel a very welcome visi-
tor. All of these patients have
been at Parkview from four
months to five years. The Rev.
erends C. F. Stewart and W. E.
Warrington were mentioned as fire.
quent visitors. A pair of new shoes
were proudly exhibited for my
benefit, a gift from a church club
of Reverend Wadlington's church.
My visits to Parkview will be
every two weeks.
All seemed to be getting along
nicely. Most of them are busy
making pretty things in the Art
classes. These articles can be sold
for the patients.
General Hospital, as would be
expected, is the busy place. Babies
being born, operations going on,
broken bones reset and medicines
and treatments being administered
constantly.
Overheard a bit of idle chatter
between two women sitting behind
me in the Social Service Depart
ment. A colored man passed quiet
ly by, intent upon his own affairs.
Miss Sillypuss-"Oh, did you see
that colored man."
Miss Sillierpuss-"Tee hee, yeah,
aintcha glad he didn't havta set
near ia us? I don't like 'em and
he was so big and they're mean.
I'd hate to live near colored folks.
IF they git mad they're jest like
Indians and ole Mexicans and they
carry knives to cut cha"
Miss Sillypuss-"No, they al
ways got razors, but some of 'em
go to church cos we lived near a
church onct when we were kids
and lots of 'em used to go to the
church and we useta call 'em
n-r, If, n-r, and run"
Both women laughed loudly over
that clever little childhood prank.
Miss Sillierpuss-"Well, I amt
never had nothing to do with 'em
cos I know they're mean and we
usta always cross the street if we
met one. Gee, I'd been afraid to
called 'em n-r. What'd they
do?"
Miss Sillypuss-"Aw, they jest
laughed and sometimes didn't even
let on they'd heard US. Mrs is

Play For Title

PITTSBURGH, Pa, July 8.
The finals of the Thirty-ninth An
nual National intercollegiate Golf
Championship turned into an
inter-class meet here today as a
junior and Sen|Jr from Louisiana
State University, survivors Of a
field of 1854 candidates, battled it
out for the tournament trophy.
Paul Leslie, a junior, and Fred
die Haas, jr., a senior, both stu
dents and fellow fraternity broth
ers at the Baton Rouge institu-
ton, emerged as finalists to clinch
the individual title for the South
for only the fifth time in the an
nails of the college classic.
Leslie, runnerup to Champion
Charles Kocsis of Michigan last
year, eliminated Bill Barclay, also
of Michigan, 3 and 2, to win a
berth for the final round, while
his classmate, Haas, advanced at
the expense of Vincent D'Antonio,
Tulane sophomore, and 4.
Today's meeting is not the first
time the Southerners clashed in
big time competition. A year
ago in Chicago Leslie tangled
with his fraternity brother in the
semi-finals of the same race and
triumphed over him by a 5-and-4
score.
Only two other Southern
schools, Tulane and Georgia
Tech, have been able to carry the
individual title into the South
lands since the inception Of the
event back in 1897. At that, 1t
wasn't until 1925 when Fred
Lamprecht. of Tulane. won the
trophy that it went below the
Mason and Dixon Line. The
team title, shared earlier in the
week by Princeton, has never
been captured by the Southern

Davis Cup squads are being en-
tered and encouraged to play in
prominent tournaments by those
in charge of the development
work. Several Washington jun
iors will be sent to the Eastern
clay court championships at For
est Hills, July IL. AS result,
some of these players have shown
excellent competitive spirit and
promise, and they have already
caused some minor upsets in such
tournaments by eliminating oppo-
nentS who would normally rank
we'll above them. More complete
data upon the progress made by
the various Junior Davis Cup
squads will be available as soon
as the Inter-City series of matches
begin. Through these series it is
expected that at least one or two
players in each section will stand
out as exceptionally promising
material for further development.
AS a further incentive and eli
max for the present training sea-
son, it is possible that few Of
these outstanding juniors will be
invited to attend at least one Of
the National Senior Champion
ship Tournaments at the expense
of the National Association. thus
giving them an opportunity to
study some of the worlds greatest
players in action, and members of
the national Junior committee an
opportunity to coach and check
the possibilities of such hand
picked players as Davis Cup can
didates of the future.
