There are thousands, perhaps
millions, Of homes in which soup
is seldom il ever served. Yet,
when the residents of these homes
order a restaurant or hotel meal.
they invariably accept the soup
course. In fact, they order it and
loudly praise it. If 1t is not on the
menu, they complain.
Why? It's easy to ask the ques-
ton, but impossible to give the
answer. Soup Is an economical
dish, easy to prepare, light, health
ful, a wonderful warmer" on cold
day and it can be varied as almost
no other dish can. Surely, house.
wives are not too - shall we say
"tired?" to prepare it.
Soup is an excellent balancer for
any dinner. Through 1t, those who
eat few greens, may be given
everything from chopped parsley to
peppers. It's a dish that should
appear on every table at least twice
a week. Occasionally a heavy SOUP
may be served as a main-course
dish.
Here are two recipes for soups
made with Lima beans as an ingre-
dent. One calls for dried Limas
and the other for cooked dried
Limas - which may be procured
in cans almost anywhere. Lima
beans alone are rich in protefn sind
carbohydrates, and are a valuable
source Of iron, potassium and
calcium salts. They are also very
high in alkalinity. A soup Of this
type is valuable addition to the
menu.

Could Use Paige

Local news lines weeping
about the loss of baseball play
ers and strangely ignorant as
to where others can be secured.
certainly are not fooling the
average baseball fan of today.
Sure Jimmy FoXx, Grove and
a few other veterans of hte dia-
mond will prove invaluable be-
cause of the draft. But they're
not all.
Even old Satchel Paige long
past his peak, would be an inn
provement on the Red Cox pit
ching staff.
Given time to get into con-
dition Big Bill Jackman and
Burlin White might we'll sur
pass all the batteries on the
Yawkey team. Josh Gibson
would easily be the best Red
Sox catcher they ever had. Old
Mule Suttles would hit EN- as
long and as often as Ted Will
liarhs and you'd get a faint idea
of how Suttles use to pound the
ball in his heyday.
Oh, but Mr.. Yawkey can't
find these players!

"Chinaman's Chance"

There used to be an old say
ing that a person with the odds
against him didn't have a Chin
aman's chance.
Today, however, in view of
the very commendable baseball
welcome to our Chinese broth
ers, we must change the old
saying and record that a per-
son in unfortunate circumstan-
ceS hasn't got colored mans
chance.
am sure our Chinese read
erS will endorse this change.
Most Chinese will welcome the
change and a few might even
write in and gratefully inform
me that we can keep the
change.
Notwithstanding all this, it is
now pretty certain that ou1
outlook is much brighter re-
garding colored player entrance
into the major leagues.
The sooner every other race
is pushed ahead of us into
Green Pastures, the nearer il
becomes for our turn.

Chinese Welcome

Chinese Americans certainly
deserve an equal break with
other loyal citizens and we're
plumb pleased to hear that the
Boston Braves are now quietly
grooming a young Chinese Am
erican for the senior National
League, which has been far
more democratic than the
younger American League.
You may recall it was the
National League which voted
heavily in favor of colored ball
players in that Pittsburgh
Courier poll. You will remember
that John McGraw, the Little
Napoleon" of the National
League, first gave a major
league try-out to Charlie Grant.
You certainly must have read
That the st. Louis Cards, the
Brooklyn Dodgers and Cincin-
natl Reds of the National
League played game after game
with colored clubs. Dizzy Dean,
Bill McKechnie, Hugh Mulcahy,
and others of the National
League have come right out in
favor of admitting colored

Never is the colored race so
oonular as when it donates its

onlv when major league
baseball on the brink of ruin

And only when U. S. Olympic

Saved U. S. A.

But every schoolboy knows
that Babe Ruth-the King of
Swat the man who made the
home run famous forever, saved
professional baseball.
Everybody knows that colored
track stars inspired and saved
the faltering U. S. Olympic
Teams of 1882 and SO and mad
dened Hitler.
And what intelligent boxing
fan will not admit that Joe
Louis saved professional boxing
from ruin?
Yes, and Colored soldiers
saved the Allies in 1918; Colored
troops saved Teddy Roosevelt
at San Juan Hill! and didn't
the mass prayers of our people
in bondage eventually save the
United States Of America?
Those bass prayers-now des-
ecrated by jazz bands, are
called spirituals. Harriet Beech
er Stowe heard them; Abe Lin
coin heard them. This country
can not exist half slave and
half free, said Lincoln, We
saved America!
Now all this might sound like
plain propaganda until you
study up on colored people and
what they have contributed to-
ward our nation.

BEAUTY HINTS
By NINA TEMPLE
YOUR POSTURE

Watch your posture, if you
bend your body forward and
SLOUGH along, beware, for you
are on the road to being old
looking before your time. One
good exercise is this: Just move
one foot forward and then clasp
the hands behind the neck.
This will not only bring you
into correct position for walk
ing but ease and rest the mus
Giles. Then again, do not lead
with your shoulders but with
your pelvis. Stand before the
mirror and watch the improve
ment when you observe these
simple rules for walking. Walk
young.

PREFER GEORGIA OR TECH TEAM IN NEW ORLEANS
Sugar Bowl Is New Year Incentive of Unbeaten
 Eagles

Newton, Mass, Nov. iS--CUP)-- Boston Colleges unbeaten gridiron juggernaut is interested only in a Sugar Bowl bid, with the winner of the Georgia Georgia Tech battle the preferred opponent, a reliable spokesman indicated tdoay.
 A Rose Bowl hid--already hinted at-would be rejected, 1t was said, for at least three reasons:
 1, Difficulties of wartime trans portation.
 2. Necessity for too long absence of the squad from classes.
 3. The fact that an accelerated program would require too much makeup study for students taking a west coast trip.
 Tulsa's undefeated eleven has been suggested as a Sugar Bowl op- ponent. Interested fans of the Ok lahoma team have written to Boston College in an unofficial capacity re- garding a post-season meeting; but "feelers" have met with small suc- cess.
 Moreover, some Boston College of- flcials feel that despite its fine rec- ord, Tulsa would prove no real match for the kings of eastern football.
 Considered
 Friends of Boston College in New Orleans say the Eagles are being given important consideration by Sugar Bowl officials. But John P. Curley, graduate manager of Ath- letics at Boston College, has only one official answer. This is 1t.
