which has five victories in six games.
Prep doesn't yet rate on a par
with Westinghouse and Central,
but 1t should give st. Adams fair
battle and propably will Friday
when they meet at st. Adams. The
Little Hoyas have come to regard
this as their big game of the year,
topping even that annual Thanks
giving clash at Iona High, New Ro-
chelle, N. Y.
The day is coming when Prep may
play In the same league with the
best around here. Father Kirby,
S. j., director of athletics, points
out the enrolment has increased
to nearly $50. Last year it was 100,
and some bigger boys are coming to
the school. There also are numerous
good players on the midget, light
weight and lower class teams, which
means good varsity material later.
Greatly Pleased with WEIGH.
School officials regard WEIGH as a
real find" as a prep school coach.
There's a new spirit evident, prac-
tice is lot Of fun for the boys,
and they are learning a lot about
football. WEIGH favors dropkicking
for extra points and field goals-he
was some shucks as dropkicker
at Carlisle, the records show-and
the other day he was demonstrating
the finer points Of that almost lost
art.
You'll never miss If you do 1t
this way" he said. Some doubt was
expressed by a small lad in the rear
of the crowd, so Gus stepped out to
the 20-yard line and dropkicked II
in a row just to prove his argu-
ment.
The leading player is Buddy
Speiss, a transfer from st. Johns,
tabled by Father Kirby as real
college prospect and one of the best,
If not the best, back he's seen at
Prep. He's good for from yards up
at each crack, is the teams ace
passer and a clever dodger once In
the open field. He weighs only 155
pounds but is rugged and wiry.
Players Reach Expected Form.
Last Friday and Saturdays high
school schedule also brought out
several overlooked matters, particu-
larry in the ability of some players
who were regarded by their coaches
as outstanding but who as yet
hadn't got going. A case In point
Is Phil Funk at Wilson. He was the
real star Of the Tigers 25-6 victory
over Roosevelt, and Coach Artie
Boyd of Roosevelt was the first to
admit it after the game. He is one
of the three letter men on Wilson's
team and until now has been held
back by injuries. Quarterback JUL
ian Owens of Wilson also played his
best so far this season, among other
things catching two touchdown
passes.
Little frankie Burbach Of Anacos-
tia also began to live up to Coach
Joey Kaufman's advance praises and
was the big noise In the 14-0 victory
over Eastern. Continually he tore
through for big gains on line plays
and his runback Of punts balanced
what edge Eastern had In punting
Credit Due CentraTs Mess.
Plenty Of praise has been show
cred on Central's Mike Denikos fol
his stellar play against Tech, and
another important player on the
Viking team then was Bobby Mess
quarterback. His blocking was per-
feet on the running plays, he threw
what proved to be the winning
touchdown pass and the reason many
of Techs passes went to the ground
was the protection he gave not only
In his territory but al over the place
behind Central's line.

BY HAROLD CLASSEN,

NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-Georgia
not only defeated Alabama Satur-

best college football team In the
land.
The undefeated Dixie Bulldogs

into first place in the weekly Asso-

Wisconsin also participated in
the shake-up, one of the most VIC

the poll, by vaulting from sixth to
second, just 1873 points below
Georgia.

Alabama skidded to eighth from
the third place spot it held a week
ago, but Minnesota climbed from
10th to seventh. Pennsylvania,
which whipped the previously I'M
beaten Army team, II to 0, replaced
the Cadets in the listing. The
Quakers jumped from 18th to ninth,
while Army dropped from eighth to
10Th as result of the defeat.
The top 10 was completed by Uni
versity of California at Los Angeles,
winner of three Pacific Coast tussles
in a row. The Bruins were 18th a
week ago and took over the spot
vacated by Texas Christian, which
was upset by Baylor and sank to
the also-ran classification.

Joseph Gilbert For
Full Rights For
The Negro People

In a statement to this paper,
Joseph Gilbert, Farmer-Labor can
didate for Congress from 9Th Dis
trict, said: at is a disgrace to the
American nation that we should
have such a thing as a Negro prob
lem in this day and age. The real
reason for the inequality of rights
granted the Negro people in our So
called political democracy is that
the Negro question is a part of the
great economic problem, just as is
the labor problem, the woman prob
lem and many others. It can never
be fully solved in a society of con-
f1icting economic interests, or the
capitalist system.
'In the meantime much can be
done by according the Negro full
constitutional rights in practice.
The main trouble is that racial dis
elimination is fostered and kept
alive by ignorance and prejudice.
Scientists have proven that basical-
ly there is no fundamental differ
ence between colored and white
races. All have the same potential
powers, and differences are mainly
due to development, physical, men
tai and emotional, which are deter
mined by environment and oppor-
tunity. That is why all citizens in
a political democracy should be ac-
corded full and equal rights and
opportunities in every respect.
"a first step in this direction is
by abolishing the vicious poll tax
law. It will then follow that the
Negro must use his political power
to secure equal education, and then
through education and organiza-
ton develop power to enforce equal
status in all human relationships.
The Negro must ally himself in his
efforts toward complete emancipa-
ton with all liberal forces, indus
trial, social, economic and political,
and cut himself loose from tradi-
ton. In common with all socially
minded people he must seek free
dom not for his race alone but for
humanity as whole. With eco
nomic freedom established and a
still greater diffusion of education
the Negro problem will be thing
of the past"
