AME Youth
Conference at
KeOkuk Success
By LORRAINE e. CURRY

The Fourth Annual Young
Peoples Congress and Leadership
Training Institute of the North
western Annual Conference of the
A. M. E. Church was held at Bethel
A. M. E. Church in Keokuk, Iowa,
July 9, 10, II, 1910. There were
over one hundred delegates, accom-
panied by friends, relatives and
other visitors, attending the ses-
sions. The delegates came from
different youth organizations in
their churches. The delegates from
st. Peters Church, Minneapolis,
were: Carrie Wallace and Lorraine
Curry from the Sunday School, and
Mary Gilbert and Everett Harris
from the University of Life. Way
man Church sent Harriet Lane as
it's delegate.
Rev. w. H. Ogleton, Presiding
Elder, Des Moines district, gave
the opening address to the Con-
gress. He stated that the funda-
mental points upon which the
Young Peoples Congress was
based were:
1. The Uplifting of God.
2. Magnifying the Church.
8. Probing and Considering and
Youths Problems of Life Today.
His address was very interesting
and thoroughly enjoyed by all.
In the afternoon of the first day
Mr.. Roy Ferguson, Polk County,
Negro supervisor of N. Y. A., adj
dressed the Congress on the work
Negroes were doing on the N. Y.
A. in his county. The next speak
er introduced by Mr.. Ferguson was
Guy A. Pence, Supervisor of N. Y.
A. in Lee county, who made a plea
for the Negro boys and girls of
Iowa to at least make application
for N. Y. A. and to make use of
it's training services, instead of sit
ting at home waiting for jobs to
be offered to them.
A worth while question and dis
cussion period followed his ad-
dress.
The Leadership Training Insti-
tutes were held.
Rev. Irvine discussed the History
of the Negro A. M. E. Church,
beginning with it's origin by Rich
ard Allen up to the present.
His statement that he thought
the A. M. E. Church was spiritual
ly dead brought the whole youth
body to it's feet. They gave in
stances from their own churches
that had just happened to prove
that they knew the A. M. E.
Church was not spiritually dead.
A h ated discussion followed
throughout the whole course on
Negro A. M. E. Church history.
In the election for the st. Paul
District officers for next year, St.

Loving words will cost but little,
Journeying up the hill of life;
But they make the weak and weary
Stronger, drawer, for the strife.
Do you count them only trifes?
What to earth are sun and rain?
Never was kind word wasted,
Never one was said in vain.
When the cares of life are many
And its burdens heavy grow,
Think of weak ones beside you
If you love them, tell them so.
What you count of little value
Has an almost magic power,
And beneath their cheering sunshine,
-. Hearts will blossom like flower.
So, as up life's hill we journey,
Let US scatter all the way,
Kindly words, for they are sunshine
In the dark and cloudy day.
Grudge no loving word or action,
AS along through life you go,
There are weary ones around you
If you love them, tell them so.

Central 700 Victor
As Gonzaga Blows
Many Chances
Intereeptions Produce
Two Viking Markers;
Harry Martin Stors

Central's Vikings intercepted two
passes for spectacular touchdowns
and otherwise grabbed fortune In
defeating Gonzaga, 300, yesterday
at Central Stadium.
Except in scoring, it was Gonzaga
all the way as the Eagles (they're
the Eagles now. not the Purple) out
passed Central, tore its. lines to
pieces and gained 13 first downs
to g. The Eagles defeated them
selves by incessant fumbling and
sudden inability to gain vital yard.
Central's first score, its only WELL
earned one, was set UP by the magic
toe of Sam Di Blasi From his own
80 he kicked a roller that died on
the Gonzaga 1-yard line and Con-
zaga's kick to the so was run back
to the % by Quarterback Harry
Martin. Di Blasi advanced to the
2 on an end-around and when Con-
zaga stubbornly held there, Martin
faded back to pass. Finding no
receiver in the clear. he carried the
ball around right end to score.
Jack Samperton converted from
placement
Martin GOnzaga's Nemesis.
Again it was Martin who troubled
Gonzaga after the Eagles marched
to Centrals 35-yard line a minute
later He intercepted a pass from
Elmer Raba on his own 20, headed
for the sidelines, balanced there a
moment and tnen lit out for the
goal, 80 yards away. He made it,
but Di Blasts attempted dropkick
conversion missed.
In the third quarter Gonzaga
again was on the march. but Robert
Mess. substitute Central back.
reached out of nowhere, intercepted
pass from Charles Baudoin and
skittered through the entire Eagle
team for 45-yard touchdown.
Samperton's placement was good.
On no other occasion was Central
within striking distance, but Con-
zaga constantly pounded on the
gates. In the opening minutes it
rolled from its own IS to the Gen.
trail 9, but there it stuck and Baba s
attempted field goal vas wide.
Eagles Futilely Cross Goal.
In the third quarter the Eagles
made another serious threat, start
ing from their own 81 They really
pounded this time, with Francis
Teawalt going over the goal from
the 5-yard stripe, only to tumble
when tackled Stanley Valanos re-
covered for Central and it was a
touchback, giving the Vikings the
leather on the 20-yard line.
Again the great GonZaga midfeld
machine marched in the final quar-
ter right down to the Central s
before being stopped

Light Eastern Team
Downs Episcopal in
Surprise, 14-0
Coppoee, Reserve, Leads
Lincoln Purkers in
Touchdown Drives

DlSIlnctIy surprising a neaVler
Episcopal eleven which had figured
on beating it for the fifth time in
as many years, Mike Kelleys Eastern
High football team served notice on
all 1910 rivals yesterday when it
opened its season with an impress
sive 14-0 victory on the Alexan-
drians' field.
Outplayed for all but the last 3
minutes of the first half when a
short Episcopal punt gave it a scor-
ing opportunity. which only the
timekeeper denied, Eastern displayed
a complete reversal of form to score
once in the third period and again
in the fourth.
Duke Coppage, swivel-hipped,
batterlng back who wasn't among
the starters. proved the winners
hero. sparkling the first touchdown
drive, going across for the initial
score and keeping his team a threat
thereafter. He tailed Eastern's first
touchdown on lateral pass from
the 4-yard line after beautiful fake
at the center of the line by Eddie
league and helped set up the second
with 10-yard sweep of right end
to place the ball on Episcopals 7.
From there it took only two rushes
to 90 over league. incidentally
converted each extra point from
placement
First Half a Kicking Duel
Tho fret l,a -
a punting duel between league and
Episcopal's Johnny Davis. with the
latter having slight edge. Gaining
little by little on each exchange,
Episcopal kept Eastern deep in its
own territory but never could send
its own offensive beyond the Lincoln
Parkers' 35. With less than 3 min
utes to play. Davis only bad kick
was taken by Moe Shulman on the
Alexandrians 43, and on the next
play, Coppage circled his right end
for II yards. Two passes from
league to End Mel Thompson put
the ball only 3 yards from Episco-
pals goal, but time ran out before
Eastern could do any more about it.
Episcopal halted one scoring threat
by Eastern early in the second half,
but the Kelleymen came right back
to march SO yards to a touchdown
late in the third period. A 28-yard
end run by Coppage and a fake re-
verse which developed into a spin
ner by the same guy, who ran
through center for Is more to the
l0-yard line, preceded the scoring
play.
Eastern Line Efficient.
Eastern's comparatively light lire,
with Capt. Bob Pieri and Thomp-
son serving as the leaders. held
Episcopal's running attack almost
completely in check and frequently
opened holes for its own backs.
Episcopal apparently was handi-
capped when Quarterback George
Neff injured a leg early in the
game. He returned at the start
of the second half, but could play
only short time.
