WHAT PREVENTS VOTING?
BY S. S. Taylor

The POLL TAX is enforced against every citizen of

person who is willing to pay dollar
The WHITE PRIMARY is after all, only white primary.
Bond issues constitutional amendments, and dissatisfied
primary candidates 60 to the election would be hard
find single state election in which there some
portant issue to be decided The who does vote
the election because he in the primary makes
mistake
In recent years two candidates have left the primary and
carried their contentious into the election What would have
happened either both of them had found the unvong
thousands of Arkansas waiting at the polls with their poll
tax receipts in their hands
The GRANDFATHER CLAUSES went. The area of the
poll tax is narrowing The white primary is slipping. What
of it? Who believes that the ingenuity which devised these
subtle devices cannot devise others?
The heart of the voting problem is the devices by
which evil is accomplished but the undemocratc mind which
conceves them and the Indifferent subservient citizen
who neglects to use that power which he retains

one attempts to limit the quantities
OF these foods in reducing diets. Re-

such as lettuce. cabbage. carrots.

REVIEWS
MEMORIAM

In loving memory of our dear
wife and mother, Mrs. Mary
Frances Tate, who departed this
life here on earth, December 25,
1914.
Dear Mother:-Words cannot
express our grief and loneliness.
The home is so sad; we think of
you each day, but try to brace up
and be gay. Your ever ready
smile and patience through your
long illness will be a guiding
light to others to never lose
faith, but hold on. We did our
best, the best that could be done;
but God loved you more so his
side won.
There are so many words, yet
unspoken,
And a link in our chain has
been broken,
So we are praying and trusting,
When our lives are no more,
That we'll meet you in Heaven
on that other shore.
Sadly missed by:
Mr.. z. D. Tate, husband,
Mr.. and Mrs. E. G. Hutson,
daughter and son,
Mr.. and Mrs. H. L. Whitfield,

Biggest splash made by any freshman pitcher was that fash toned by freba1l Johnny Wander meer with the Cincinnati Reds in 1897. Johnny won 16 during his first campaign, famed 200, and pitched 2 consecutive no-hit games, feat that belongs to the ages. "
 No one knows how long Ferriss will stand up in this company but everyone in Boston seems to think he will stand pretty high. In the first place they like him because he's unspoiled. He's modest and he gets kick out of autographing baseballs for kids, signing each one to order-"To my pal, Mickey o. Toole," etc. And in the second place they like him-because he can pitch.

 Must be a contest on somewhere the way the lads are practicing all the fancy steps and dips lately. Regular epidemic of ballroom ex- hibitions all over the place. We especially noted guys like Pfc. Freddie Klein, the bank teller from Manhattan-one of those suave gents who breaks into an adagio at the slightest provocation. Fred's got new one: brings both feet up in back of him and musses up his haircomb without missing beat. His partner seems at loss how to cope with such commando tactics, but she completes a pirouette of her own anyway just to show she's still extant. We'll youth must be served, as Bill Tilden used to say.
 Cpl. "JoJo" Freitas, the Olym- plan from Oakland, Cal, is an all- around man who has that Murad nonchalance whether in salon or swing session. And talking of swing, Joie is reputed to wield a fairly wicked niblick, picking up a neat piece of change in tournament play back when he wore plus-fours, and didn't care whether they were sartorially regulation or not. Would like to break out in a bow-tie now and then even now, but doesn't want the other boys to think he might be trying to put on the dog. Really a democrat that guy.
 Pvt. Matt Gorski, the Pittsburgh Panther, is in there punching all the time. Matt spends a little time over to Congamond and the doting damsels oft mistake him for the lifeguard, he's that photogenic around the chest. Matt worked at the construction game for some time and also went in for barbell workouts, hence the mighty mus culature. Talking about physiques, I used to be able to chin myself consistently with one hand until my chins began to unduly encroach on the neckline-but anyway it's more fun, and much more intellec- tual, to play checkers. Boy, dc I know my way around a checker board! (Ed. Note: We've seen bet ter heads on umbrellas, Carson).

Make Way for MT. Ferriss

Make Way for MT. F'errlss
 When Dave (Boo) Ferriss, the Boston Red Sox red-hot freshman pitching sensation, fashioned the first of his gaudy string of vic tories, baseball experts all over the land began to compare his fast one with Bob FeTler's, his hook with Carl Hubbell's and his change of pace with that of Christy Mathew son.
 After a while they discovered that Ferriss, an ex-GI discharged from the Army because he has asthma, is not super-fast at all. He's just average fast with heavy ball. His curve is very good, but not as good as Hubbell's and his slow one fools you, of course, but not the way Matty's fadeaway did.
 What makes Ferriss good isn't tremendous speed or a jug-handle curve or slippery change of pace, but the way he sneaks his stuff over on you. A batter never sees a Ferriss pitch until the ball is at his throat. And he never sees a good Ferriss throw until the heat is on. Dave is control pitcher. He can put the ball where he wants it.. In addition, he has poise and know how-and a sinker like the one Wiley Moore used to throw. It all adds up to winner.
 In Boston, Mass, where every one from Joe Cronin right on down to the guy who mows the outfield, is comparing Dave to Walter John son, they are thumbing through the record books in an effort to find another pitcher with fresh man record comparable to Dave's.
 Ferriss won his first 8 starts, 4 of them with shutouts, the best record for a freshman in the Ame- rican League since John White head, fresh out of the Texas League, took 8 straight Tn 1856. Whitehead faded fast after that and is now dishing them across in the bushes.
 Walter Johnson won only 5 games his first year up and so did Bob Teller. Lefty Grove won 10 in his freshman campaign. Dizzy Dean took one for St. Louis in the fall of 1880 when he was 19 years old, but came back year later and won IS during his first complete campaign. Grover Cleveland Alex ander won 27 when he broke in with the Phillies in 1911 stnd Christy Mathewson started his matchless career with the New York Giants in 1901 with 20 wins and 16 lost. Bill Voiselle had the same record with the same club last year.
