Jimmy Lee of the local club. There
are certain to be other challengers
but when the days battling is over
it is likely that the champion will
come out of the above list. Prob
ably Doty, McClain, Lee, Mason
and Love are shooting the best golf
of the lot. However, when the boys
swing into action and know that
every stroke counts, past perform

will be the golfer who can keep go

who will come out on top.

Former Mill
City Girl Is
Found Dead

Dorothy Gilbert Poole, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Howard Gilbert,
1884 E. 32nd st., Minneapolis, was
found dead Monday morning in the
hallway of her home in Chicago,
where she has resided for several
years.
1t is reported that Mrs. Poole
went to purchase groceries late
Sunday evening and was not found
until the next morning, her body
badly bruised and cut. Apparently
she was the victim of a brutal as
sault.
Mrs. Gilbert, mother of the dead
woman, who was notified immedi-
ately, went to Chicago and re-
turned to Minneapolis Wednesday
night with the body. Funeral ar
rangements had not been COM
pleted.

ers, and carpenters as well as the
common labor organizations were
asked to express the stands of their
respective groups along racial lines.
Individuals from these groups
arose and stated that they had no
policy of discrimination and would
welcome any qualified Negroes who
cared to join their respective
unions.
A member of the Carpenters
Union stated that not only are
Negroes permitted to join the union
but he had a personal friend and
fellow workman who was Negro
and at one time knew of a Negro
foreman who had always gotten
the cooperation of the men under
him. Although he was not asked
for a statement, a member of the
Iron Workers stated that he knew
of a Negro member in his organi-
cation and that it has no policy OF
segregation whatsoever.

group stated that a colored person

ID. G. Fans Boo
Jake Powell and
Throw Bottles

Washington, D. C.-Washington
baseball fans gave Jake Powell,
Yankee leftfelder, a "razzberry
welcome" when the Yanks opened
a series here with the Senators
Tuesday. Pop bottles were thrown
at Powell in such great numbers
that the game was halted in the
sixth inning and again in the sew
enth inning.
Powell was reaping the harvest
of a recent radio insult to the col
ored race in Chicago three weeks
ago. When it was suggested to
Joe Mccarthy, Yank manager, that
Powell be removed from the game
he refused. Pop bottles and gen.
eral disorder was so great that the
entire team had to gather around
their team-mate.
Police riot squads were finally
summoned and they went in the
stands in the sixth inning to quell
the disturbance. The noise and
bottle throwing broke out anew in
the seventh inning despite the pres
ence of the police.
Some fear has been expressed
that in New York it will be unsafe
to allow Powell to play. Newsmen
here noted the curious fact that
both white and Negro fans booed
and threw bottles on the field.
Boos drowned out the loud speak
er as umpires pleaded with the fans
to allow the game to proceed. Some
quiet was finally secured.
After each bottle barrage, ten
minutes was needed to clean up the
debris.

of the COW properly groomed. Now
the man that owned the back hall
of the COW, would milk the COW
and take all the milk. The man
that owned the front half OF the
COW ask the other man for some
milk, saying that he fed and water
ed the cow and should have part
of the milk. The man that owned
the back half objected to this and
relied on the bargain that he own
ed the back half, and the other
own the front half. This perturbed
the man that owned the front half
of the COW, and finally he decided
to get even with the man. He kill

ford Gila King, No. 117156S, pure
bred Holstein COW in the Universi-
ty of Arizona herd, according to an
announcement today by R. N. Davis,
Of the dairy department.
The 113,649 pounds of milk con-
tanned 1851 pounds of food con-
stituents of the very best quality.
The total dry matter in this milk
was equivalent to more than that
contained in the carcass of twenty
eight 1,000-pound steers, Davis
said. Practically all of the food
constituents of a steer carcass are
composed of bone and other non
edible material.
This COW freshened for the first
time at the age of one year ten
months, and twenty-seven days.
She has completed seven lactation
periods in the Advance Registry of
the Holstein-Friesian association
and is now on test for the eighth
time, having freshened on Decem-
Der 8, 1887. During the month of
January she produced 2,574 pounds
of milk containing S7.5 pounds of
fat, which is equal to 109 pounds
of butter. This cow is eleven years
old and is still in the very best of
physical condition, according to
Davis.
