Makes Aggressive
Senate Campaign

Forrest Jackson, candidate for the
U. S. Senate, this week will have
talked before the people in three
sections of the state, beginning in
his native Southwest Mississippi,
then the Delta last week including
Holmes County and now through
the Northeast area. Making three
and four speeches a day, he plans
to cover the entire state and soon
will reach the Central and Southern
areas.
MI. Jackson spoke in Lexington
Thursday morning.
He was introduced by Joe Berman
The 46-year-old attorney, review
ing his legislative experience in as
sisting in preparing many bills in
Guiding the Homestead Exemption
and
dustry, and his background of max
ing the investigation as chief council
to the late Senator Bilbo in the hear
ings at Washington, declares he is
best fitted to fight in Washington
for the rights of Mississippians to
elect their own representatives to
the u. S. Senate.
CONCERNING acts of violence and
lawlessness whether by labor or
management or their supposed rep
resntatives, Mr.. Jackson said "exist-
ing national legislation is NOT the
complete answer to the alderman
agement relationship problem and l
will work ard fight for a review
and restudy of the entire field, first
to protect the general public, then
management and labor in order to
accomplish a lasting industrial
peace"
Recognizing the economic agricul-
tural wealth of Mississippi. jackson
said he will work for beneficial farm
legislation including loans near pari-
ty on all major and minor crops
for the maintenance of fair and
just prices for the farmers.
He said nothing is too good for
the war veterans and they should
have the right under sour dual sys-
tenn of constitutional government to
appeal decisions on their compensa-
ton or claims cases from the Vete-
rams Administration to the courts
of the land"

Hornets TrampIe West
.32-6 In Game Friday
PIoy TchuIo Here
Tomorrow Night, 7:30

The Lexington Hornets showed
the homefolks that they still had a
sting left in them last Friday night
at Beall Athletic Field as they ran
rough-shod over West High 1926. The
Hornets displayed a group of fine
backs that couldn't be stopped as A
of the five touchdowns scored
by 4 different backs.
Lexington took exactly 2 minutes
and SIS seconds to sting West for the
first tally in the initial period. The
Hornets received the opening kick
off and after Ingold, McRae and Pa
ris had worked the ball down to the
West two, Ingold plunged over. The
second touchdown came on a beauti-
full broken field run by John Muir
rell McRae who toted the pigskin
for IS yards to cross the goal line
standing.
Two more touchdowns were made
by the Hornets only to be called
back for penalties. Henry Paris, cap
| able field-general for the locals took
a pass on the West IS and scampered
through the West Secondary to score
but a Is yard holding penalty multi
| fled the touchdown. Shortly after
ward, John Murrell McRae uncork-
ed another pretty run to score but
it too was called back for an Off
side penalty for Lexington.
West came back strong in the Sc
cond half and marched down to the
Lexington 2 yard line only to lose
the ball on downs when with z in
ches to go for a first down they
fumbled and the ball wen over on
downs to Lexington.
Lexington's third tally came on a
long pass from Virgil Ingold to Bob
by Mayo who caught the ball on the
5 and romped over untouched. the
fourth touchdown came on a five
ward plunge by Blondy Wilcox after
he, Paris, Ingold and McRae had
carried to the 5 yard marker.
Lexington's fifth and final touch
down came on a beautiful run by
freshman Wilson Harvey. Taking
the ball on the West 35, Harvey dis
played some classy plunging and
spinning to shake loose nearly every
player on the West team to go over
standing up. Harvey looks like some
first-class material for Coach Schnel-
ler's 1948 eleven. Bill beamed from
| ear-to-ear as he watched him battle
his way to pay dirt)
