Holmes Bulldogs Win
Over Southwestern

Scoring in the last five minutes OF
the game, the Holmes Bulldogs de-
feated the Southwestern Frosh to the
tune of 6 to o.
The game was a nip-and- tuck az
fair throughout the first half, South
western having the edge in first
downs. to 4. But, with Naron
leading the attack, the second half
was played almost entirely in South
western territory.
Time after time Naron plowed
through the line for substantial
gains to put Goodman in position to
score. But it was not until late in
the fourth quarter that Captain Ar
mond Gritty. following perfect inter-
ference. was able to gallop over for
the winning touchdown. Bowen's
try for the extra point was blocked
The game was marked by four
fifteen yard penalties, three against
Southwestern and one against Good
man. In first downs Goodman had
thirteen to Southwestern's eight
Southwestern making only two in the
last half. Goodman failed to COM
piete a pass out Of eight thrown.
while Southwestern completed only
two out Of fifteen.
Every member of the goodman line
played outstanding ball. while Ghol.
son, Gritty, and johnson starred along
with Naron in the backfield.
The outstanding man for the los
ers was Peak, triple threat, who
was injured late in the game.
The play of the Bulldogs was much
improved over that of the previous
week. and all indications point to a
successful season.

We wonder what feeling stirs In
the hearts Of those four men, Cham
sher1ain. Daladier, Hitler and Musso-
I'M, az they gather round the tabla
at Munich to determine the momen-
tous question OF whether or not over
ten million men will engage in a
conflict that will result in the loss
of millions of lives and billions of
dollars? A conflict that would shake
the very foundations of the entire
world and see every major civiliza-
ton suffer the consequences.
What power for good and for evil
they have!
We know how Mr.. Chamberlain
and Mr. Daladier feel We know
they are going to preserve peace at
almost any price. But we also know
they are not going to completely for
sake Czechoslovakia now.
We feel that Hitler Is going to
get every inch of land and every
man under his swastika banner pos
sible without having to fight for them.
Bullying and threats are his wea-
pons backed up by millions Of armed
men who should never have been al
lowed to arm in the first place.
Mussolini, who started this steal
opia over two years ago, to date
has served as an ace in the hole for
Hitler. Until this conference Is end
ed and official word given out the
world can only wonder whether or
not Mussolini will back up his fra
ternity brother Hitler or whether he
deserted him when the going got
rough.
Germany and Italy with their arm
ed might represent a destructive force
the like of which the world has new
err seen before, not even in the Word
W.r.
But the Democracies have definite
ly shown they are not to be threat
ened and hullied by a bunch Of ugly
school boys playing pirate, seeing
how far they can so without having
20 have words with the teacher.
And now we see where the benefit
payments to southern cotton farm
ers have been cut and the payments
to wheat farmers Of the west raised.
Just another instance of favortism.
1t is not likely this bit Of favor
tism will get by southern congress-
men in the next session.
The south is supposed to be or to
have been in the saddle during the
last congress. All we can say IS
the saddle must have slipped off the
horse and we're left holding it,

Charles Willis Thompson, noted
political writer, on the editorial page
OF the September % issue OF the New
York Sun, says: This mornings
mail brings me, as usual evidence
that down in Mississippi they not
only think straight but talk straight.
At least the small town newspapers
do. In this mail comes the Durant
News. commenting on the presi-
dents purge:
He should leave the dirty work
to his subordinates and stay in his
place. The American people want a
President they can love and respect.
not an ordinary politician. History
is repeating itself. Ever time the
Democratic party gets IN power 1t
goes hog-wild or does something to
cause a split and we have the Repub-
lican party in the saddle again.
"The date of the paper shows that
at the time this was written the
News did not know how the purge
was going to come out, SO 1t is not
case Of wisdom after the event
It was written while the purge was
still going on in Georgia and before
the Maryland result was known.
Mississippi Is a state with few large
towns. Its families still bear the
names Of pioneer settlers. Its State
Democratic organization has already
announced that In the National Con-
vention Of 1910 Mississippi 10 to be for
Senator Pat Harrison for President.
The State Is evidently no better pleas
ed with the way things are going
than were, two years ago, Maine
and Vermont"
No. Mr.. Thompson, we MISSISSIPPI
plans aren't pleased at thesway things
are going for this State or for the
South. In fact, we've been dissatis-
fled Tor long time about great
many things. Tariff and freight
rates, for instance.
And slowly but surely strong SEN
timent is crystallizing into concert
ed action that will soon bring re-
suits in our efforts to get equitable
freight rates and a satisfactory ta-
riff structure.
We Southerners are an easy going
lot but once we are aroused to an
injustice we dedicate our lives to re-
moving it. And right now we want
Just tariff and freight rates.
