Mississippi State Makes Request

Reno, Oct. 30. (UP)-The board Of athletic control of the University of Nevada announced today it will meet sometime this week to discuss possible cancellation of a football game with Mississippi State in a question involving Negro players.
 The game is scheduled to be played Nov. 16 at Starkville, Miss. The Negro players involved are William Bass, starting Nevada half back, and Horace Gillom, 210- pound end mentioned as a possible aQ-American.
 Nevada Graduate Manager Jo- seph T. Mcdonnell said that last week the board received a letter from 0. R. Noble, athletic director at Mississippi State, "inquiring what our intentions were in regard to participation of Gillom and Bass in- the game"
 Didn't Understand
 we wrote back immediately say ing we didn't understand the ques- ton and asked clarification," Mo- Donnell said, we are still await an answer"
 The letter also contained refer ences to the possibility that if the two Negro stars played, it might lead to unfortunate circum- stances" Mcdonnell said.
 Noble's letter said that the presi- dent of Mississippi State had re-. ceived many telephone calls ana letters asking if the colored boys were going to be allowed to play, Mcdonnell added, and that Noble's letter had been prompted by the president.
 It was reported reliably that preesnt sentiment among members of the Nevada board of control favored cancellation of the game II Mississippi insisted that the Ne groes be debarred from playing; Student sentiment also was said to favor calling off the game.

Q. What do people mean by the
''old age problem?'
A. Old age has become Il problem
in America for the reason that we
have a growing number Of old people
in our population. and old people for
the most part are unable to keep in
dependent. We are no longer a young
nation. In 1860 it is estimated that
there were in the United States about
10000 persons 60 years old and over.
This was % per cent Of the popula-
ton. In other words, roughly II per-
son in 43 was 60 or over. BY 1900 the
number Of aged had grown to over
1900, 600 making the proportion IL per
cent-roughly one person in every "a
was 60 or yer In the next 10 years
the number Of aged triplcd. We had
5000. 600 aged persons in 19io-6.S per
cent of the population IN that year
one person in every II was 60 years
old or over. And there is no question
that the trend will increase over the
years. 1t is estimated that by 1880 we
shall have we'll over twice the mum.
Der of aged we have today. There will
be 100000 persons 60 years old or
over. That will Niean III per cent Of
the population. or roughly one person
in every eight. In part this is because
the advance Of medical science has
& lnnrthannI tha tn1h Af lifa "a that
more people live beyond the 9 of
65. In part il is because we have few.
or children nowadays so that the pro.
portion Of old people Is greater.
Old People So Likely To
Become Destitute
The tragedy lies not in the fact that
we have many old people. but in the
fact that old people are so likely tc
become destitute. Very few old folks
retire because they have an income
to retire on. They retire because the!
have been elbowed out OF the labor
market. Employers prefer young PEG
pie. and old folks cannot compete Will
the young for jobs. In times like thess
when manpower is in great demand
we don't see so much OF that: compe
tition is not so cruel as in slack times
But when the number Of jobs is small

old folks don't get much chance.
Our old folks retire because they ar

First wish to thank kGlR. Mr..
Claxion and the Z-Bar Network for
so kindly putting at our disposal the

der that we may bring this important
matter before the public.
II is now generally known through
out the nation that the strike Of Butte
miners, of about 10 days duration,
was settled and an agreement satisfac-
tory to the miners was signed and is
now in effect. What is not generally
known. however, is that the Anaconda
Copper Mining company as a result
of that strike is now practicing whole
sale discrimination against a large

every purpose, including scabbing on
miners and other organized employees,

formed by scabs. No member of this
group was in any way connected with

may have occurred during the strike.
their only offense. in the eyes Of com
pany officials is that they chose the
path of honor instead of the path of
shame. For this they are now being
prosecuted by the ACM company and
are being denied unemployment.
Are Old-Time Residents
Almost all of these salaried employ

mated against are old-time residents
Of Butte. most of them are born and
raised in the community. Most of
these shiftbosses and other salaried
workers were members at one time
of the Butte Miners Union. Most of
them have either fathers, sons. or
brothers who are still members of the
Miners Union and who were out on
strike manning the picket lines. How
could they do other than they did?
Under these circumstances. They new

nifty where the very word Of scab is
synonymous with al that is low and
vile. OF course. they could have chosen
the paths of dishonor as did some
Of their fellow workers. they could
have remained behind the company
fences and earned the undying scorn
and detestation of every member OF
the community in which they lived.
Yes. they could have done this, but
they were made of different stuff. The

made Butte what ii is-the "Gibral

walked off the job with their brothers

Legless Vets Form Chapter

A Disabled American Veterans chapter composed of veterans of World War II who lost both legs in battle has been formed in Salt Lake City, Utah.
 Vivian D. Corbly, national DAV adiutant, said that the Bilateral Chapter No. 77 was started in the Brigham City Hospital and at the present time has more than 70 members.
 National in it's scope, the aim of the unit is 100 per cent membership of all veterans who have lost two legs in wartime service.
 Paul Muni, Hollywood screen star, praised members of the bi- lateral Leg Chapter on recent tour of the hospital and congratu- lated them on their spirit, fore sight and effort in organizing the group.
 He further commended the group on their plan to promote research for development of arti- ficial limbs.
