OFFICIALS

NEW Notwithstanding sharp re-
sentiment over the "foul war; that
climbed a contemplate height during
the recent Armstrong Ambers light
weight title fight held here, when
Armstrong was allegedly F.robbed" of
his title by the referee, Arthur Dono-
van, and the New York ring moguls,
Harlem fight fans are actively prving
into the makeup of the New York
Boxing Commission. Many leading
citizens have joined the movement to
know why New York has never APP
pointed a colored referee or judge.
Because Joe Louis and Henry Arm
strong are both boxing champions and
outstanding figures in the game, petit
tions are being presented to secretary
of State Walsh calling for a correction
of such rank injustice. Some of box
ing's past figures, Jack Johnson,
Harry Wills, Kid Norfolk, and Ted
Carroll (sport cartoonist) have been
suggested as being qualified for either
position. The secretary has already
given the idea his sanction.

With the summer camp season over
your official camp reporter takes this
opportunity to award special wings to
camp conducting the best program this
summer. Our point system is based on
No, l, the parents opinion; No. ?, the
child's reaction; No. 3, our own I'M
expected visits. The honor goes this
year and for the first time TO Camp
Nippinicket, Bridgewater, Mass, spon-
sorcd by Columbus Ave. AM.E.
Church. This camp has really done
an excellent job this season with los
campers including boys and girls.
Most of our New England Camps have
alternate months for girls and boys,
but Nippinicket took over the major
job Of accepting girls and boys at the
same time. Yet every program and
every event clicked exactly right of
course, you may know Just who was
directly responsible for such a success
full camp season of happy girls and
boys and vet you may not, so here we
are face to face with the Director who
guided Nipp-in-nicket Camp without
Il horsewhip namely, Miss Wilhelmina
Crosson, popular and well loved
teacher in Boston's School system.
Modest Miss Crosson tries to pass the
buck" to the campers by saying that
she had onthing to do with the success
of the camp, but that the campers,
themselves, were one hundred per cent
''sWell children" Every mother and
father can appreciate such a thought
full person as Miss Crosson is defend
ing her charges and they can under
stand just why the children all love
her but that "swell children" stuff
doesn't 90 because they also know that
children are plenty of trouble. j.
Garfield Shelton, popular Boy Scout
Commissioner, a born camper and an
other camp official, fits right into the
successful picture of Nippinicket doing
very well during July. The Head
Councillor, Mrs. Gwendolyn Wood,
also won the love and respect of the
campers who co-operated with her in
every move. A special mention goes
out to a clean young fellow namely
Clelland, a Senior Councillor.
Young Atwood added military touch
to the camp including a little rendez-
vOus in the woods called Battery AZ.
1t would do any army mans heart good
to see the boys and girls do a real
evening parade under his direction.
Now we come to the most important
event in any camp. And of you don't
think so just ask the campers Mess
Call" Of course, the right way to a
guys heart is his stomach; that's where
Mrs. Charlotte Walker comes in with
her tasty and filing menus. No com
plants from the los gang on the food.
So Mrs. Walker must have done all
right There you have it-no accidents
no trouble-no complaints from the
parents or children, perfect summer
record for the camp season of 1899. =.
Miss Wilhelmina Crosson, we salute
you, your official staff and the ''swell
children" Good luck, Nippinicket.

view of summer camps is not intended
to create any vicious perception or to
pass on any publicity favorable OF
otherwise, but to bring together these
