school athlete for accepting a sub sdy that will help him toward a college education. But to confine the subsidies to athletics, although such Is the common practice, is ooviously wrong.
 The University of Chicago, fol- lowing the example of Johns Hopkins, abandoned intercollegi- ale football despite the howls of alumni who remembered Walter Eckersall. Tax-supported institu- tons, of course, are more suscep- t-ole to alumni pressure and less able to afford the loss in revenue that the abandonment of football Tor the few in favor of education Tor the many would entail.
 Nonetheless our own University or Colorado might vie with Johns Hopkins and Chicago in a more modest way. The authorities at Boulder, it appears, do not hesitate to hire star halfbacks. If the Con- stitution and statutes permit this use of public money-and I'm not at all confident they do-why not hire star students in, say the lib- eral arts?
 The star student would benefit. So would the university.

CHICAGO, Aug. 10 (ANP) -
During the past two months at least

HERB MCKINLEY TO
MARRY JAMAICA GIRL

KINGSTON, Jamaica, Aug. 10
(ANP)-Something new will have
been added when Herb McKenley,
the worlds No. l quarter miller,
comes out of Jamaica next month.
The 23-year-old track star an
nounced his coming marriage to
Jamaica-born Sylvia Francis here
recently, after three-year engage
ment beginning at the time of his
entrance at Boston college. Miss
Francis now lives in Roxbury, Mass.
In speaking of his forthcoming
marriage, McKenley said, "I've
known her for at least three years
and hope that we can get married
when | graduate from Illinois. Of
course, / won't be through studying,
because Pme taking a pre-medical
course out there, but | think we
should wait until | start medical
school. It's all up to her."
Induced to speak of how he
broke the world meet record for the
quarter mile, Herb had this to say:
Il went to that meeting hoping to
break the meet record of Ala for
the quarter, but it rained the first
day of the meet. 1t rained the
morning of the second day. knew
the track would be heavy and so |
figured that maybe I'd run the
quarter in 48 seconds. | relaxed
completely. There wasn't any sense
thinking of a record. | ran perfect
ly relaxed, too, never thinking of
the time at all. And l almost
dropped right into the ground when
they announced the time. | don't
think I'll ever be that perfectly re-
laxed again-and run so fast, |
mean"
Mckinley lost only one quarter
mile race this year. That was in the
N. C. A A. meet and Elmore Har-
ris took the race. He attributes his
loss to the fact that he 'hit spot
dug up by the dash men" when he
came into the home stretch.

NEGRO CONGRESS PROTESTS
BIlB0'5 RADIO SPEECH

NEW YORK, Aug. 10 (ANP)-
Protesting against the radio speech
made recently by Sen. Theodore
Bilbo, the National Negro congress
called upon the Mutual Broadcast
ing system, Federal Communica-
ton commission, American Mer-
curry magazine and President Tru-
man to take steps to prevent the fur
ther abuse of public facilities to
spread "Bilboism."
The statement protests the use of
time over the Mutual Broadcasting
system, which was given the sena-
tor, 'for the expression of senti-
ments contrary to the principles OF
American democracy and for the
expression of ideas which can only
be understood as an invitation to
violence against minority groups in
this country, namely Negroes, Jews,
Catholics, Italians and the foreign
born"
Calling attention to Bilbo's
speech where he admitted he is
member of the Ku Klux Klan and
that once Ku Klux always Ku
Klux and that the 14th and 18th
amendments were adopted through
fraud" the congress holds this to be
a grave concern to the entire Ameri-
can public, viewing the klan as
being Synonymous with "bigotry,
violence, race hate, un-American-
ism and fascism, the earth scourge
against which our boys fought and
died on the battlefields of the world
that it might be wiped from the
face of the earth" At the same time,
the congress demands the adoption
of a six-point program designed to
prevent further abuses of public
facilities.
The six-points outlined are:
"1) That the Mutual Broadcast
ing system allot to representative
of the National Negro congress the
time equal to that taken by Bilbo in
order to refute his slander of the
Negro; (2) That the FEC investi-
gate the legal culpability of the Mu-
tual Broadcasting system in permit
ting it's facilities to be used for the
dissemination of race hatred propa-
ganda;
"(3) That the elections commit

justice and other responsible gov

sented the club at the annual con
vention of Kiwanis international
at Atlantic City last week, pre-
scented brief reports on the gather
ing and President Elmsley Laney
appointed a three-man committed

Jury room at the court house or

Inside Story
Hess also revealed the inside
story on the thunderstorms which
are playing an unpleasant game Of
knocking down houses in Detroit,
Baltimore, Philadelphia, and other
cities throughout the nation.
Nothing unusual" commented
Hess. This is the thunderstorm
season. And when you have
thunderstorms you shouldn't be toe
surprised to find yourself lying in
bed looking at stars where the
roof used to be.
Thunderstorm Season
"The thunderstorm season usual
ly begins some time in May, with
just a few skirmishes. Then, in
June, it gathers momentum, with
about eight to 10 major offenses.
"Then, in July, it hits its peak.
It's not unusual to have Is or more
thunderstorms during that month,
and they often are accompanied by
high winds which are first cousins
to tornadoes."
