WALTERS SCHOOL ATTRACTS
YOUTH

The second meeting of the
Walters Training School was held
Wednesday, Dec. 6, with fifteen
boys attending. This course is
sponsored by the St. Paul Urban
League, the Dining Car Walters
Union Local No. Sic, and the Ma
tional Youth Administration. The
purpose of the course is to give
young men fundamental training in
hotel and dining car service. A
crew of veteran walters, Messrs.
Littlejohn, Oliver, Maxwell, and
Potts are handling the technical in
structions while Miss Odelle Harris
and John Thomas do the class
techniques. It is quite possible that
the young men in training will find
part-time employment in the hotels
and full-time employment on the
railroads during the summer. The
meetings are held at the Union
Headquarters, Arundel and Rondo
at 8 p. m. Anyone interested in
attending can gain information as
to the class day by calling Miss
Harris at the St. Paul Urban
League.

READINGS ARE READY

H. c.: Ny grandmother owns a
farm which is not producing. 1
want to take the farm in possession
and l want her to let me manage it
in my way so we can accumulate
something. Should I do this =?
Ans: Go to your grandmother
and talk business with her. She is
old in years but she still has a very
active mind and will not give you
the property. However, if you can
rent it and pay her price, she will
allow you to do your best to aecu-
mulate something on this property.
L. B. T.: have to take medicine
all the time and l wish to know is
it because / go with a man too old
for me or is it that. l just need to
take medicine?
Ans: Your associates have moth
ing to do with your health. You
are in need of medical attention
and you must make up your mind
to go to some good doctor. 1t is
my belief that you have taken so
much medicine that you can't get
along without it j. leave off pat
ent medicine all together and try
to get your system in good shape
again.
C. B.: Ny husband has been de-
sorting me and running around
with women very badly. Now l
caught up with him and talked to
them both but she resented it and
l struck her. Now my husband
left and refuses to talk with me
and 1 wonder what to expect?
Ans: If that is the kind of man
he is, then you should be thankful
that you are rid of him. Although
he is going to change his views
just lots in the coming few weeks.
He is going to realize that he made
mistake and will ask you to take
him back. Keep his clothes &. if
he wants them insist that he come
for them in person.
P. F.: have a friend who is a
widower with eight children. Now
he has asked me to marry him and
l wonder if / should accept his
proposal or to stay as l am?
Ans: Reconsider the whole thing
=. you are much better of right
in your own home with your child
than you would be with man who
had eight children and a very, very
low income. You will be able to
do more for your child to remain

vance what price X-Rays / wanted.

Mr.. Bolton stated that upon his
release this time he was presented
with an extra bill and when he
insisted that it was the same all
ment that he had been in with be-
fore he was notified that the rules
had been changed and that every
one with bad colds from now on
would have to take private room
regardless of race" Many white
workers that were questioned on
this matter stated that no such
rule had been inflicted on them at
other hospitals.
Mr.. Bolton refused to pay the
extra bill and it was brought out
in the argument with the Superin-
tendent, according to Mr.. Belton's
statement, that he was trying to
use every possible excuse to force
an extra burden on the Negroes.

single :. don't marry again unless
you can expect to gain to some ex-
tent from it.
L. T.: Help me. My mother is
leaving for New York and wish to
know if she will have success or
not? People say that she won't do
well there and l worry lots. Will
my aunt be too strict on me?
Ans: 1 have every reason to be-
ieve that your mother will meet
with success in New York. She
will keep well and will be able to
get employment. Obey your aunt
and carry out her wishes until
your mother sends money for you
to join her.
L. M. F.: Why is it that father
objects to my going with A. D.?
Ans: During the past year or so
your father has heard some mighty
raw things concerning this young
mans character and he doesn't ap-
prove of his daughter keeping COM
pany with someone of this type.
The boy has changed but he
will have to prove it to everyone
in your district which will take
months to do. Mind your father.
L. D. D.: l love this man and
know that he does me. Tell me if
you think that we will ever be man
and wife?
Ans: Yes l do. Talk the
matter of marriage over with him
and let him know that you would
prefer it to an association as you
are now involved in, and / feel sure
that he will make his plans to take
you as his wife.

entered the game, this time on the
Browns side, when Ray Johnson
of Wheatley fumbled Hallie's punt
on the Wheatley's Vineyard line.
Matt Johnson of the Halle team
recovered on the Wheatley five
yard line. Pete Buford sliced
through right tackle for a touch
down. A pass, Buford to Taylor,
was completed for the extra point.
The score To, Halle @. Brown
leading.
The Minneapolis team fought
hard to overcome the Brownies
one-point lead, but their effort was
fruitless. Another threat came in
to the game as Lift Gardner, a
Municipal League protege, shared
running honors with Runt Buford.
This pair of pony backs literally
ran over, around, and under Phyl-
lis Wheatley, in a series of re-
verses and off-tackle plays, which
consummated in another Halle
touchdown. The attempt for an
extra point failed.
Phyllis Wheatley bid for a scor-
ing opportunity when a tumble by
Dan "Mulatto" Taylor was recov-
cred by Schaffner. A pass, Bubba
Brown to Schaffner, Melted a first
down for the Wheatleys. Martin
Wellington of Halle spoiled the
next play, however, by tossing
Johnson for loss. Finding Hallie's
stonewall line impregnable, Wheat
ley tried another forward pass,
which was intercepted by Williams
of Halle @. Brown. AS Halle was
preparing for another drive, the
final whistle sounded, ending a
hard-fought battle - Halle @.
Brown 13, Phyllis Wheatley 6.
Although the entire Halle 9.
Brown team played exceptionally
well, playing honors went to Bu-
ford for his stellar performance.
Lift Gardner wins second choice
for his ground gaining in the last
period of the game. Fred Potter is
to be credited for his fine blocking,
along with Harris, Gardner, We'd
dington, Fletcher and Pugh, who
all played we'll both Extensively and
defensively.
Outstanding players on the
Wheatley team were Ray and Ches-
ter Johnson, the bulwark of the
Wheatley attack. Honorable men

Negro football history has been
written-another name has been
added to the venerated roll of Ted
Coleman, Frank Lewis, Hunt Vas

"Pete" Buford.
On a day which the gods of the
gridiron must have reserved for
this special occasion, the Halle @.
Brown Juggernauts, inspired by
the dazzling performance of the
diminutive Pete "Runt" Buford, a
former Municipal League foot
baller and st. Paul high school bas-
ketball star, completely swamped
the Phyllis Wheatley Ramblers.
Reed Team Had Stars
The Halle 9. Brown team, a
galaxy of former st. Paul high
school and City League stars,
under the astute leadership of
Dwight Sphinx" Reed, out-rushed,
out-passed and out-tackled the
Wheatley team, a fine aggregation
of players representing the cream
of Minneapolis Negro athletes,
under the tutelage of the dynamic
Stafford Lott, by a score of 1876.
Wheatley Scores First
Though greatly outplayed from
the outset of the game, the Mime
apolis boys scored the first touch
down, taking advantage of a break
when Lift Gardner of Browns
team fumbled on the Halle three
yard line. After blasting the
Browns stronghold with a success
sion of power plays, Ray Johnson
of the Wheatley team sliced off
tackle for a touchdown. The at
tempt for conversion was unsuc-
cessful. The half ended with Phyl-
lis Wheatley leading Halle Q.
Brown 60.
Browns Score in Third
During the third quarter, the
Brownies began their march to
victory, despite the Stafford men
shifting from a 6-2-3 defense to a
6-3-2 defense. Led by Buford, who
did everything but NOW the grass,
Halle advanced to the Phyllis
Wheatley 35-yard line after a
sensational one-handed interrogation
of a Wheatley pass by Buford.
With Fred Potter blocking superb
ly, the Halle team plowed its way
into Wheatley territory only to be
halted by the recurrence of a fun
BILE which was recovered by Halle
at severe loss, placing them back
into their own territory and forcing

Hospital Charged With
Unfair Treatment

Fairview Hospital will not ac-
commodate Negroes unless they
take on the useless expense of a
private ward. At least that's what
several citizens claim. The admin
istration found itself in an en-
barrassing position when a large
number of Negroes joined the Hos
pital Service Association which, for
a small monthly fee, furnishes free
disqualification for so many days
per year with the agreement that
the member is to be put in three
or four bed ward. When the asso-
citation was first organized, Mr..
Norby, who was then Superintend-
ent of Fairview, met the situation
quite tactfully by putting the
Negro members in a private ward
at no extra cost to the member.
That was one case in a million
where the poor Negro got more
than he bargained for.
New Superintendent
For two years or more, Fairview
has had a new Superintendent, and
an increasing number of COM
plants have poured in to this
paper over the underhanded treat
ment many of the members are re-
celVing at this so-called Christian
Institution. c.. E. Rucker, Clarence
Hughes, Harvey o. Witherspoon
and many others have had embar-
RAISING treatment under the pres
ent administration. "Uncle Bob"
Bolton, recent patient at the hos
pital, was so indignant over the
treatment he received from the
present Superintendent that he de-
clared that he doesn't know what
he hates most: the southern white
mans extreme prejudices or the
northern white mans hypocrisy.
