CHAMBER COLUMNIST
Since that time one enterpris-
ing journalist has pioneered a
brand new field of Joe Louis. He.
Earl Brown, of the Amsterdam
New York, did candid column"
for Life Magazine, June II. The
article struck up front page fire
in a big national weekly. al
though it seemed not to have
bothered Lucius Jones (SNS)
sports editor.
Since that time Life has been
forced TO apologize for the ''in-
suit story" and Brown is reported
to have been fired" the reason
not given. Jones, writing in the
Birmingham World, June 81. ap-
proved most Of the facts stated by
Brown and credited himself as
having prior reported them,
Jones may have to step in and
settle this thing.
ODD COLUMNS
Many odd columns have appear
ed from time to time trying to de-
stroy either the record of prestige
of the worlds greatest champion
Joe Louis. One article said that
he was unpopular among his peo-
pie, but Brown answers that by
showing that children, clubs pets;
animals and etc, axe named for
the Brown Bomber.
Just as Louis has solved every
style of boxing he has stood up
under every brand of Journalism.
He is the worlds most written
about champion. He is great be-
cause they do not understand his
power of punch. Z

ia, was third.
7IGHLIGHTS OF MEET
The amazing victory was un-
Iuestionably the highlight of the
annual National Women's Amateur
Athletic Union Track and Field
Championships.
More remarkable, however, was
The fact that Miss Lane did not
stop there. She captured the So
meter dash with another stirring
ace against the brilliant and
tWinkle-toed little Tuskegee mite,
Lucy Newell of Oak Park, Miss.
TUSKEGEE WINS AGAIN
Tuskegee captured team honors
for the fourth straight year, hav-
ing finished as runner-up in 1886
when Mable 3. Smith of Atlanta,
row Mrs. Carl Lott. was the big
star of the team. Tuskegee won in
1897 with 33 points, il 1888 with
80, in 1899 with 33, and this year
with the usual thirty-Odd.
MISSED WORLD RECORD!
Alice Coachman of Madison
High School, Madison, Ga, entered
with the Tuskegee squad, repeated
her outstanding victory in the high
Jump by eliminating all rivals at
feet, II inches and then going on
all the way to 5 feet, inches by
herself in an effort to break the
world record of feet, 1-2 inches.
But she missed out on all three
tries at the height that would have
put her name in the record books
of the universe as the only Negro
woman athlete holding a recog-
nized world mark to her credit.
CONSISTENT WINNER
Jean Lane, who won the SO, 100,
and 22O in the Tuskegee Relays,
holds the unofficial world record in
the 100 yard dash, set at Cincin-
natl recently in the Central Col
legiate Carnival, but the mark must
first be approved by the AAU in
order to make the books.
Saturday, Tuskegee won the 400
meter relay for the fourth straight
year. The team was composed OF
Celestine Birge, Jessie Abbott, Ro-
wena Harrison, and Miss Hymes.
Stella Walsh successfully defend
ed her 200 meter dash title, nos

Simple Garden Plan
: Is Always by Far
; Most Effective
Crepe Vine Is Trained
Over Iron TreIlis in
Enclosed Plot

The simplest garden plan Is many
times the most effective, and the ac-
companying sketch illustrates this
fact. Good proportion, exquisite care
and the decorative quality of apple
trees and a grape vine make this
Enclosed garden delightful.
The house is creamy painted brick,
with the garden area surrounded by
a matching brick wall. The living
and dining rooms open on grass
terrace (No. y, which extends to a
lawn area mo. q raised one step
above the terrace. Over the terrace
doors Cd and extending across the
house is a wrought iron trellis on
which a grape vine is trained.
Trained" is the right word, as all
wandering tendrils are clipped and
the deep green leaves and perfect
punches of blue grapes are in lovely
contrast to the light yellow wall and
make a pattern across the whole
side of the house.
Along the sides of the lawn are
perfectly formed apple trees with
red apples ready to be picked in the
next week or so. The space below
the trees, in the pockets between
them and in the area at the rear of
the garden (No. - is filled with old
fashioned perennials, such as phlox,
hollyhocks, foxglove, pinks and blue
bells, with low border of mignon-
cite and sweet alyssum, and peri
Wrinkle in the shady places. There
Is privacy and formality in the plan,
but gracious informality in the
treatment of old-fashioned favorites.
This garden is lovely during the
spring season, the perennials hold
the color interest through the sum-
mer. and the browning glory comes
with the ripening of blue grapes and
red apples, in an inclosed garden
where early fall sunlight makes it
possible to enjoy the garden until
late October.
