POWER PAYS OFF
FOR WAKE FOREST
AS IT BEATS use
Sacrinity Brothers, Brink.
lev Humble South Caro-
lima At Jacksonville
By BOB DOWN, JR.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. /
P)-A heavy Wake Forest team
came from behind in the last half
to overcome a light but battling
University of South Carolina eleven
26-14 in the first Gator Bowl game
here today. An estimated $4,000
saw the contest.
Wake Forests Deacons, trailing
rs at the half, smashed away at
the Gamecock line for three touch
downs in the last half to win a
playoff of 1918 Thanksgiving Day
deadlock.
The scrappy Gamecocks never
gave up the battle, scoring in the
last seconds of the game on a
so-yard pass interrogation by Dutch
Brembs. It was the outstanding
run Of the day.
Capt. Nick Sacrinty and Dick
Brinkley spelled doom for South
Carolina hopes. Sacrinty skirted
the ends, Brinkley smashed through
the line in a deadly one-two punch
that the lighter Gamecock players
found hard to stop.
The Gamecocks, displaying a
threatening aerial attack through
out the game, kept the Deacons
on edge. Coach D. c. Peahead)
Walker of Wake Forest said the
Gamecock passing attack kept him
jittery throughout the game and
that he loosened up his defense at
halftime in order to guard against
it. He said he was well satlsfled
with the game and believed that
the extra weight packed by the
Deacons made the difference be-
tween the two teams.
Wake Forest, running true to
form. smashed straight through to
touchdown as soon as they got
the ball in the first period. the
drive covered a total OF "a yards.
In the second period, the Deacons
funbled away a scoring opportuml-
tv on the Gamecock IA.
South Carolina, aided by several
Wake Forest penalties, struck sud-
denly with a combined passlng-run-
ming attack to score in the faolng
minutes of the first hall.
The Deacons rolled 80 yards IN
the third period to shove over
their second tally and go IN front:
Another drive that covered W
wards. started in the third period
but completed in the fourth, put
the Deacons comfortably ahead IN
the final period.
A short punt by the Gamecocks
that slithered out Of bounds on
their own Is set up the final Dea-
con score. A sub back, Bob Smath-
ers scrambled Is yards to score.
The Gamecocks, last touchdown
came with only seconds to 60 and
the Deacons threatening to score
again. A Wake Forest pass was
nr1led in by Brembs and he was
off down the sidelines Tor the long
est run of the game.
Wake Forests strong line play,
led bv end Clyde Parrish, guard
wilson Afford, center Dick Fore
man and tackle Dewey HOBBS
of Wilmington, stifled the Game
cocks running attack most OF the
afternoon.
The South Carolina line took
battering all afternoon from Brink
ley-sacrinty and company but stood
up well until the final minutes OF
the game. Bryant (Junior> Meeks
was a standout at center. Ends
Buddy Riggs and George Farrls
played stellar ball all afternoon.

But, since figures show that our cities are
here to stay and grow, let us have quick
look at their advantages and disadvantages
and see what can be done about the latter.
The need of protection made cities. The
atomic bomb, we are told by alarmists, de-
crees that protection can henceforth be found
only in small, scattered communities, and
that the Rabbits of Sauk Center will soon be
thumblng their noses at the last diving
metropolis.
The trouble with this revolutionary theory
is that most of us do not seriously entertain
1t. do not know of building plan filed any,
where which reflects genuine concern over the
atomic bomb, We may be living in a fools
paradise, but we are not yet ready to 90
into cellars because uranium was split,
The advantages of most cities are enor-
nous. They grow at crossroads, ports, har-
bors and other strategic places, and the logic
OF their founding, plus history. sentiment and
investment, controls the present generation.

In 1910, 54 per cent of all our people were
on farms and in villages; in 1910, 43 per cent
and in 1850 the guess is 80 per cent The rest
are city folk. Our 10 biggest cities had an
aggregate population of 1855 in 1900
by 1910 that had been multiplied exactly 100
times. In these years pioneering armies of
Horatio Alger heroes must have quit ances-
trail farms and villages to make their fortunes
in the big towns.

They're here to stay, so plan
them right, an expert advises
in this Forecast for America
THERE are no doubt lots of things wrong
Il with city living - but there's no reason
why the city dweller should act as if he were
living on the wrong side of the tracks.
The country may be nice but the city isn't
that bad. A critic may deplore this or that in
city; he may rage at its manifestations of
ugness, exploitation, decay, congestion and
confusion. But if he detests cities as such and
his own community in particular he has moth
ing to offer but mud and brickbats. Nothing
constructive ever came out of belyaching
and croaking.
The statistics are all with the city man. In
the race for mere percentages he is clearly gain
ing at the expense of his country cousin. The
trend is still decidedly urban, and scientific
prophecies indicate no definite leveling off.

City Folk Want Country Places

NO CITY can live without a hinterland of
farms, forests and open country. There is in
fact no complete division between metropolis
and meadow skyscraper and forest. And ever
increasing numbers of city people of all but
the lowest income groups own or aim to own
little weekend and summer places in the
country.
The prefabricated house, the cheap car, the
parkway and the express highway will help
to increase the number of two-home families.

CHAUTAUQUA, N. Y, July II
(ANP) Establishment of an ed

minority groups was urged by DR..
Alonzo F. Myers, head of the Ma

uing discrimination through use of
"un-American quota systems,
then pointed out that private col
leges, receiving millions of dollars
worth Of public subsidy through
tax exemptions" were the worst
offenders.

CONSPIRACY CHARGED in GEORGIA POLLS

ATLANTA, July II (ANP)-
After wholesale, statewide purg-
ing of eligible county voting lists
to eliminate many hundreds of the
10000 Negroes registered to vote
for the first time, Georgia went
to the poles for the Democratic
primary.
Although Henry Troutman, law
yer here, predicted that the fed
eral government would prosecute
county registrars for arbitrarily
purging the names of Negroes
from their lists, an estimated so
per cent of registered Negroes
were being disqualified as voters
in some counties.
In Appling county, an estimated
500 Negroes were disqualified by
registrar board rulings because
they failed to appear for hearing.
In Spalding county, however, 200
challenges against Negroes were
dismissed because the charges were
considered too general. One COM
plainant admitted that he did not
even know the Negroes whose
eligibility status he was question
ing.
Reports from other counties dis
close that woman was disquali-
fled because she could not define
a Republican form of government
other than to say that her obliga-
tions to such a government were
''to vote, to obey it's laws and to
send her sons to the army" and
an elderly gentleman, John Baskin,
was given the nod of approval
when he quoted Abraham Lincoln
and stated that he would give his
arm for his country if it were
needed.
Under Georgia's county unit sys-
tenn, the vote of large counties
counts for little, but in smaller
counties 100 votes may swing an
election.
In a system where any citizen
may challenge a registrant, 10000
Negroes had been challenged while
Negro leaders charged that no
white persons were being disputed.
Hearings on the challenges be-
fore boards of registrars, which
act as courts in such matters, were
conducted in many counties prior
to the election, and it was reliably
reported that Negro registrants
were written off the books in blocs
as a result.
Challengers, generally identified
as supporters of former Gov. Eu-
gene Talmadge who sought a
fourth term on a platform of
white supremacy" and "restora-
tion of the white primary" were
attempting to carry out his advice
to keep Negroes away from the
polls.

Just to keep our Westerns straight,
Abilene Town." which opened yes
terday at the Capitol, is the one
that tells how Kansas became wheat
country instead of COW country
Back before 1870, it seems, a large
part OF the land in Kansas on which
the homesteaders wanted to grow
wheat was used as the highway over
which Texas cattle were driven to
Abilene. Whole State was Just one
great big Abilene trail, it appears.
When the men who wanted to grow
wheat put up fences, the men who
wanted to drive cattle through drove
them right through the fences.
What with actions like these, the
burning of several houses, barns
and covered wagons, and the shoot
inf. OF number of people, decided
coolness developed between the
wheat faction and the cattle faction.
Things probably got out of hand be-
fore any one had the thought that
1t might be possible to fence off a
cattle trail and grow millions of
bushels OF wheat on either side of it.
AT any rate things were not settled
that calmly if Abilene Town" is
historic document to be depended
on.
The film is concerned principally
with the adventures of the Abilene
town marshal, a laconic man who
prefers the wheat growers to the
hard-drinking cowboys and can not
make up his silly mind whether or
not he prefers lively saloon singer
to the 'mouselike daughter of local
storekeeper. The marshal is por-
trayed by Randolph Scott in the
standard manner of Western heroes
these days-the stern look. the COL
ness in facing the villains, the might
and moral fiber to cast six-shooters
aside and give a desperate a brawl
for his money.
Mr.. Scott goes through all of the
regular PAGES. following set routine
which seems to indicate that he has
split-second schedule to follow
every day and night. 1t goes some
thing like this: 1890 pm, talk to
daughter of storekeeper CRhonda
Fleming) about how he can't Just
let things ride, but must make Abb
lene safe for the wheat people:
1894, talk with comic county
sheriff, advising sheriff to stop let
ting things ride and get after vari-
Gus unsavory characters at large;
1898, walk slowly across Texas
street from merchandise side to
saloon side: 1890, warn keeper of
largest saloon that we don't like
this sort of stuff around here, be-
cause Abilene must be made safe for
the wheat people; 40, get rebuffed
by saloonkeeper; l2:42, step into
dressing room Of saloons singer
Ann Dvorak and look moony-eyed
at her; 1914: get kicked in shin by
singer: 1880, chase and shoot cow
punching varmit; 1884, talk to Miss

Fleming and start routine all over
again.

Fleming and start routine all over
again.
There are small amount of fancy
shooting, a good brawl and a cattle
stampede or two to liven things UP
while Mr.. Scott vacillates between
Miss Fleming and Miss Dvorak and
stands firm for making Abilene safe
for the family life. There also is a
suftlcient amount of comedy in Ed
gar Buchanan's portrait of the
sheriff, who favors fan-tan to pur-
suing train-robbers and other such
dangerous characters.
There is about abilene Town" an
lndef1nable something, which seems
to indicate that ScriptWriter Harold
Shumate intended it to be a polite
satire on Western films, but forgot
to notify Director Edwin L. Martin
or the players of his intention. At
any rate. Mr.. Shumate is the only
writer we have come up against in
some time who has managed to get
a paraphrase of a writer born in
1888 into the mouth of a man talk
ing in 1870. But Town Marshal
Scott stands right there in Texas
street as the hubbub quiets and says,
before rather than after T. S. Eliot
This Is the way tough street dies;
not with a roar but with a whine"
There are some lively doings on
the Capitol stage, too, involving the
Three Kings. whose balancing turn
is expertly performed: the Vaga-
bonds, who get much novel and in
strumental comedy out of their spe-
cial arrangements of familiar songs;
Cy Reeves, some of whose jokes are
new and some old, but all funny
enough, and the Five Grays, four
girls and boy who dance we'll. The
Sam Jack Kaufman overture has
couple OF songs by Lynn Allison, in
fine voice as usual.
