Anniversary Greetings

Greetings Editor in this fourth anniversary issue
For his lean years of struggle for
For every issue he has tried to give you
paper worthy of the communitys progress.
When at first he began to print
Many thought he'd have to stint
On his ink or columns, too,
For he was just beginning, it's true
But he overcame that at once,
For he saw that those stunts
Didn't produce first class community paper,
For his aims above such peculiar capers.
Now he knew just what to do,
For he had been in the old experience school,
Trained hard and long to get his start
So he wouldn't upset the applicant
Now the paper is pretty good sized child.
Has lot of ideas people think wild,
Show me the Editor who always agree
With everyone although he gets his fee
He thanks his friends for their continued we'll wishes,
And hopes to merit for he has dishes
That he'll produce from time to time
AS the business warrants it in his financial climb.

Our people read with care such

accordingly.
In the long run it means more

with our news eoEerage, its extent

appearance of our papers, its clean

won for these papers a place in
analytic esteem reached by no
other Negro journals in the United

entitle us to look backward with

GloomyG GilDobie Quits To Please Alumni 'Scalpers'
By TOM NOONAN

(Umted Press Stan COrreSp0ndent)
 Boston, Dec. -Gilmour (GiD Dobie, veteran football coach whose teams have won more games than those of any other mentor in college football history, again was voluntary today.
 The lean, dour Scot whose pesSi- miSm at the. height of success made him an almost legendary figure in football will not be a candidate for reappintment at Boston college next year. The announcement was made late yesterday by the Rev. Patrick H. Collins, S. J., faculty director of athletics.
 Dobie's three-year contract ex- pires April l, 1889. The 60 year old coach, whose Eagle team lost only one game this season, refused to comment on his letter to Father Collins and declined to discuss his future.
 Gloomy Gil, as Dobie has been known because of his invariably sour predictions regarding team showings, has been coaching foot ball for 36 years. His three-year record at Boston college includes 16 wins, five losses and six ties.
 Crushed by Crusaders
 The announcement has been ex- pected since the end of the season. RumorS had been circulating to the effect that it was Dobie's last season University Heights, despite the fact that Boston college entered its final game with Holy Cross undefeated though twice tied. The 29-7 defeat which pr. Eddie AnderSon'S team handed the Eagles precipitated a wave of discontent among alumni.
 Dobie came to Boston college after 16 years as head coach at Cornell. He succeeded Harry Downes, the last of a line of graduate coaches. Dobie left Cornell with three years to run on 10-year contract at a reported salary of $10,000 year.
 A disciple of power offense featur- ing off-tackle Smashes, Dobie en- tered the coaching game as assistant of the University of Minnesota where he was quarterback prior to graduating in 1902.
 Successively, he became head coach at North Dakota Agricultural college, University of Washington, the U. s. Naval academy and Cor nell.
 It was while at Washington that Dobie, on the theory that "a good offense is the best defense" be- came nationally known for his power offense.
 Helped Cornell
 At Cornell, he turned out un- beaten teams for three seasons and developed such All-America stars as the immortal George Phann and Ed die Kaw. In his last years at Cor nell, the Ithacans football fortunes rode toboggan. Lack of good ma terial was blamed. Ironically, he left a strong freshman team which in the last three years has estab- lShed Cornell as an eastern power.
 Father Collins also announced that meeting of the graduate ad- visory board would be called soon to discuss the coaching situation. Reports that Maurice J. Clipper Smith, coach of Villanoya's unde- feated team, would come here have been denied.
