A Michigan youth in an eastern
Army camp tells this amazing
story:
The MPS are the envy of every.
one in camp. This envy OF the
military police-of all peoples
aroused by a money-making rack
ct devised b. 4 few cunning MPs.
3 Money is jingling in the pockets
OF these men from the sale OF liq-
uor. confiscated from the soldiers
Naturally the soldier thus caught,
doesn't argue. He hands over his
bottle, glad to escape punishment
at the price OF silence.
And what becomes Of the bot
tie? Sales to other soldiers are
easy and prices good. And the
MP boys should worry about spend
ing money!

to make the score 8 for Hampton

A FORTNIGHT AGO, Athletic
Director A. J. Lockhart of Morris
Brown confirmed the fact of the
Purple Wolverines playing host to
the North Carolina State Eagles
at Columbus, Georgia.
Early this week Business Manager
j. r. E. Lee, Jr., OF Florida A. q
M. College, confirmed an earlier re-
port that Famcee would play TuS-
kegee in the 1941 Orange Blossom
Classic at Orlando, Florida.
INSISTENT DEMAND
In taking the Peach Blossom
Classic to Columbus, Mr.. Lockhart
yielded to intense demand from
alumni and Morris Brown sympa-
thizers in that city for game
there between the national cham
pionS and some major opponent.
The Peach Blossom Classic at
Columbus is potentially $4,000 paid
admissions proposition if expertly
"built up" and the Orange Blossom
Classic is a cinch to attract 10000
or better this year-noW that Tink-
er Stadium has been enlarged to
accommodate t h tremendous
throngs which have turned away in
past years.
STAG DOMINATES
In previous Peach Blossom en-
gagements, Morris Brown was nos
ed out 8-6 by Virginia State in 1888,
but won over the same club 1877 in
1899 and defeated Kentucky State
1876 last year.
Previous Orange Blossom en-
counters saw Florida beat Howard
9-6 in 1888, Virginia State 1912 in
1884, Hampton $500 in 1886, Ken
lucky. State 81 in 1888, and Wiley
42-0 in 1899. The Men in Orange
