The restriction of Negro players in

with articulate members of the race,
who have from time to time protested

solution of the difficulty may result,

Undoubtedly, Douglas Shearer Of

pure bunkum. Aside from the OBJ
vious fact that people never will be
content to stay home and take their
amusement in small groups, there are
