but each time l am reminded that
slavery is far from being ended.
There is slavery to custom, to hab-
it and to accepted ideas. There are
still pioneers who can break the
shackles and look forward, carving
new opportunities. All young peo-
Pile, black and white, should be re-
minded that slavery isn't only a
physical thing. Too many of us
have never allowed our minds to be
emaneipated-and we can't do it by
proclamation.
DOGS TREATED BETTER
THAN FARM HANDS:-A group
composed of both in Chicago,
investigated charges of peonage on
the Sandy Cross farm in Georgia.
According to one refugee, nobody
gets milk" there 'but the dogs"
Good food is essential to good
health and milk is necessary for
children. Deny good food and milk
to the farm hands and their famil-
les and they sink to the lowest level
of human existence: a condition
worse than the days of chattel slav-
cry. Sharecroppers in Missouri,
like those in Georgia, are much in
the news. They are being promis-
ed federal aid.
It seems to me that Negroes
should look at farming seriously.
There is in dependence in it, and an
even break. Out in the west there
is plenty of land. Methods r diff
ferent, and that means college train
ing in good agricultural schools.
Although opportunities for a col
ored are needed; so is strength,
courage and desire to find them.

FERS HONOR "Kiwanuka,"

the high pontifical mass in Latin at

Eleven Princeton University sports
teams compiled a winning average
of .685 in 70 contests this fall. Four

Outstanding among the squads

IL tie with Yale in the final con-
test spoiled a perfect record after
eight straight victories.

with Harvard, as did the soccer

Improved KnipfeI Now Power
On Defense for Eagles Busy
In Hockey Loop This Week

Ross Knipfel, Toronto-born whirl-
wind of the ice, hardly could be
called stooge for any hockey play
er. One hundred and ninety-five
pounds of aggressive youngster, a
ball of fire on defense and con-
siderable shucks as scorer in his
own right, "Knip" currently is grab
bing the enthusiasm of good pro-
portion Of the hockey fans as he
charges down the ice for the Eagles
at Riverside Stadium or breaks up
the enemy attack with a husky
and consistently good brand of de-
fense work.
Any one playing on defense along
side Of Len Burrage, the outstanding
attack breaker-upper of the Eastern
Amateur Hockey League, is in a
bad spot right away. Human nature
being what it is, the fans are sure
to compare the two defense men of
any hockey club. Burrage, with his
smooth way of checking enemy at
tacks and his habit of stealing the
puck together with the smartest
poke-checking in the league, is the
acknowledged master.
Yet blond Ross Knipfel doesn't
suffer by comparison as he stands
with Burrage behind the blue line,
prepared to repel alien thrusts
against the Eagle goal.
Knipfel Is "Shock" Man.
Knipfel has improved since he
took up a regular post alongside
OF Burrage in the Eagle starting
lineup. Last year it was Red"
Davies and Burrage. But this year
it's Knipfel and Burrage. Together
they make an alright defense COM
bine that has helped quite a chunk
in putting the Eagles up in the top
spot of organized amateur hockey.
Knipfel is the shock man of the
pair. Burrage is the DArtagnan.
Knipfel is the burly boy who takes
the enemy shocks as opposing wing
men charge down the ice and pass
the puck across the blue line to a
mate skating from an opposite angle.
He is we'll equipped for that job
His 1875 pounds can take any amount
of punishment the enemy dishes out
And while Knipfel takes the shock
Burrage goes after enemy passes,
breaking up the attack with as neat
a brand of poke checking as you'll
find in any hockey outfit.
Both Knipfel and Burrage have
passed up attractive professional
offers to remain in amateur hockey.
AS far as the rest of the Eagles are
concerned they can stay around a
long time, breaking up those alien
attacks.
Eagles Busy This Week.
Four games, two of them at home,
are scheduled for the Eagles this
week. Opening home game will
find the Boston Olympics coming to
Riverside Stadium Tuesday night at
$50 Ten per cent of the gross re-
ceipts from this game will go to

Former Big Ten Stars
Pack Goodyear Five
Facing Brewers
Two Of ToIIest Players
In Pro Basket Boil
In Come Tonight

A comparison Of pro basket ball
as played by American and National
League teams will be afforded at
Riverside Stadium tonight when the
crack Goodyear five of Akron, Ohio,
comes to town to meet the Washing
ton Brewers.
With a galaxy Of stars from sew
eral Big Ten schools and outstand-
ing court teams of the East, the
present National League Goodyear
team is the 9th to represent the tire
and rubber company for which its
players work.
Tall Men With GO0dyears.
1t will be the second Goodyear
team coached by Ray Detrick, for
l3 years an outstanding coach at
Ohio Wesleyan. where he consistently
turned out championship quints.
Although IL men are on the squad,
the Detrick system is based on we'll
conditioned athletes capable of op-
Grating at full speed for an entire
game, if necessary. Because of that,
he started daily practice for the cur
rent season in mid-October.
Noteworthy among the visitors are
two Of the biggest men in the pro
court game-6-foot- 10 John Wiggers,
center for the Morehead Teachers
Of Kentucky last year, and 6-foot-7,
240-pound John Pelkington, also a
center, who was all-American League
center with Brooklyn one year.
Dancing Follows Game.
Among the Goodyear regulars are
Ben Stephens, captain and leading
scorer for Iowa in 1938-39: Howard
Woke, captain of st. Johns of
Brooklyn the same year: Gene An
derson, an all-Big Ten center for
Purdue, and Jake Nagode, a left
handed flip-shot artist from North
western. Other than Wiggers and
Pelkington, Steve Sitko of Notre
Dame perhaps is the outstanding
newcomer. Sitko is more famed as
a football player, but played basket
ball for the Irish his sophomore
year before he quit to concentrate
on football and his studies.
A preliminary between two Heu-
rich Amateur League teams will start
at 8:15 o'clock, with the main at
traction to be followed by dancing

FolIow-Up Work

Particularly important IS that
some physician in the group should
undertake the follow-up work. He
should examine the patient at least
once every three months for the first
year after the initial treatment, and
once every six months for five or six
years. If any dangerous symptom
arises and further treatment may
become necessary, the original
treatment is repeated, at least in
principle.
This teamwork or group-attack
IS the key to the modern, successful
treatment.
