INQUISITIvE SAL
By Helen M. Scott

Our interview this week is with
Annie Ewing Smith, Urban League
office secretary in the Minneapolis
office. Mrs. Smith is known as one
of the most capable stenographers
and secretaries in the Twin Cities.
She is always willing to give en-
enlargement to the young and old
and l. know my readers will like
her answers:
1. Where were you born? Ans.
Gibson, La.
2. Where are you employed?
Ans.-Twin City Urban League.
8. What do you do in your spare
time? Ans.-Read, but I do not
have very much spare time.
A. Would you favor the crea-
ton of a state to be operated and
manned by Negroes as proposed by
the "Forty-niners"? Ans.-No. I
do not believe that the solution of
the so-called Negro problem can
be found in the colonization of all
Negroes, nor in milder forms of
segregation.
5. Do you find life hum-drum
affair? Ans.-Indeed not. Let the
beautiful ladies of the screen and
stage along with their other tai
ented sisters speak of their inter-
esting careers, but I'd like to say
that those of us who take dictation,
sometimes to the tune of a pipe
impeded voice; tend the biddings
of that relentless master, the tele-
phone; and perform multitudinous
other unrecorded tasks, find life
moving along at a rather rapid
pace. It's great however, I'd be as
a ship adrift without the dear old
u. L.
6. What is your hardest house
hold task? Ans.-The most diff
cult task is arising and checking
the alarm clock at a. m. If I can
resist the temptation to return to
bed for just "five minutes" my
daily household routine runs very
smoothly.
7. Who are your favorite screen
stars? Ans.-George Arliss and
Paul Robson, but I prefer the
stage.
8. Do you think Joe Louis will
ever be heavyweight champion of
the world? Ans.-Yes. If, how
ever, Schmeling wins the title and
defends it in Germany Joe Louis
will not become world champion at
the present.
8. What first attracts you to a
man? Ans.-A courteous and gen.
tie manner plus a sense of humor
(or what passes for one).
10. Under what nation is the
Negro accorded the best treat
ment? Ans.-Russia.
II. What music do you enjoy
most on the radio? Ans.-Semi-
Classic.
IL. Has any American Negro
ever married into European royal
ty, and, if so, what was the rank ?
Ans.-Yes, Josephine Baker mar
ried the Italian Count, Petite Di
Albertino.
10. Would you rather have per-
feet health or lots of money? Ans.
Perfect health, of course.
ID. What interests you most in
life? Ans.-The welfare and flu
ture of my twelve-year-old daugh-
ter.
Information about myself,
there's not much-graduated from
South High School, have had IL
years work in extension division,
University of Minnesota, have been
with the League since its inception

Weaver Loses Lead,
THE Mats seemed to have the secons

THE Mats seemed to have the second
game locked up, but Monte
Weaver weakened in the fourth inning
and the AS scored four runs. With
Johnson and Hasson on base, Babe
Barna hit home run over the right
field fence, and with another run
needed to tie at SIS, Catcher Frank
Hayes produced it with a homer in
the left field stands.
The Mats broke the tie in the fifth
on passes to Stone and Sington and
an error by Newsome. but the AS
drew to even terms again in the last
OF the fifth when Pinch-hitter Lynn
Nelson got on base through an error
and scored on Werber's single and
an infield out. Darkness took care of
the rest. Gumpert and Williams did
the Philadelphia throwing.

Ruffing in Trim,
Yank Sky Clears
BY GEORGE CHADWICK.


NEW YORK, October 2.-Charley
(RedD Ruffing put the con-
vincer on Washington's Nationals
by hurting a two-hit shutout. Up
to this time, Joe Mccarthy had
been fretting more than his usual
self about Rulings physical condi-
ton.
Red contracted a cold in the
back muscles and neck and was
prevented from registering his
nineteenth victory of the season
by none other than the lowly
Browns. Ruffing could not bring
his arm around far enough to get
the proper hook behind his curve
and batters were able to take a full
swing at his offerings.
With Red again showing the form
that made him the Yanks' second
most valuable pitcher, Mccarthy
is ready for the world series amply
loaded with what it takes to capture
the blue ribbon classic in four
games.

Yanks Best in Clutch,

E1RST, of course, is the fact that
the Yankees always are there when
1t counts. In the last two seasons,
while topping the American League
like a tent, they have lost only one
series when 1t counted-to a second
place team. They may nosedive
against the pushovers. but make the
stakes high enough and they'll play
the hand for all it's worth.
Second, there's the somewhat OBJ
ecIre data that, although they haven't
been hitting with enough consistency
to smash their way out of paper bag
In recent days, they're still sending
those runs across. And, in the final
analysis, they pay of on runs For in

catcher in the league and .377 slug

found himself after dismal start and

Too, this power has been backed

Schumacher, who was more or less
