! 1t pays to ditch wetland according
to Will Cox of Glenwood. Mr.. Cox
states that he built 500 feet of closed
drainage bitches through wet area
in his bottom land last winter. He
says that where the crops used to
drown out, the growth of the corn
and soybeans is as good here as any
other place in the field. The increas-
ed yields of this field this year will
pay the cost of installing the bitches,
according to Mr.. Cox.

TAMPA, Fla, Feb. IA. (ANP)
= A $4,000 industrial high
school was dedicated here last
week for Negroes, with Tampa
Masons taking part in the dedi-
catory exercises. The new con-
crete block structure replaces a
ramshackle wooden structure
which has served as a juvenile
home for the past nine years.
R. R. Williams was the speak
er for the occasion. MI. Williams
pointed out that there are no SUI
pervised Fairgrounds for Negro
boys and girls in the county, a
contributing factor to juvenile de-
linquency, he said.
Judge David Kickliter, Of the
juvenile court, said that Hampton
Mccullough, Negro head, had done
a remarkable job. He further
added that oft he 800 boys sent
to the old refuge during its nine
years of existence, only 20 per

Dunbar Takes on
Roosevelt Last
Hurdle 10 Champion
By Jimmie N. Jones

Hot on the trail of the city
basketball championship, the Dun
bar Wolverines playing their first
season in the big Eight" led by
Luther White, termed the master
mind of the hardwood game will
engage Roosevelt high Saturday
night at the Fairgound Coliseum
starting promptly at 7 o'clock, be-
fore the Chaminad- Parker game
which gets under way after the
Dunbar game.
The Blue and White are fav-
ored to win from their West Side
foes who have lost two league con-
tests while the Wolverines have
won all five of their starts in the
"Big Eight" race.
Coach White is pinning his
hopes on the "Big Five" with
Ezariah Smith and Sage Brown at
the forwards, Ralph "Bo" Farr
and Charles Francis at the guards
and the return Of Oscar Dominick
from a slight illness at the center
post, with plenty of requirements
on hand if needed.
The Wolverines have built up an
enviable record to date scoring
1876 points against their foes who
have been held to 1874. They have
the heights, speed and ability to
NOV down thir opponents when
the time is ripe as has been shown
in their performances this season.

Express Sport Writer In
Dog House With Roosevelt Fan

Very often there comes a time
when sport fans do not agree
with the opinion and predictions
of a sport writer and to which he
goes about his work and pays no
attention to the criticism of his
readers.
However there comes a time
when he is brought to task about
favoring certain participants as in
the case of the Dunbar-Roosevelt
game Saturday night. Such was
the case in which Jimmie N. Jones,
sport scribe for the Ohio Daily
Express found himself headed for
the we'll known Dog House by a
leash in the hands of his charming
neice, Wanda Jean Hobbs, a sem
Tor at Roosevelt high, who came
upon the scribe pounding out
praise for Dunbar who is slated
to take her school in two Satur-
day night. While it is only natural
for Jeanie to root for her school
and hope for a victory, her uncle
is bound to loyalty in his favor
ite school which of course is Dun
bar. And so her scribling uncle
must follow the leash to the Dog
House, just because he believes
Dunbar is better than Roosevelt.
Oh well, he don't mind it.

EXPLANATION MADE ON TICKET CHARGE,
 GLEE CLUB CONCERT

Asked to comment on the ticket charge at Juneau for the Uni- versity of Washington Glee Club concerts to be held on June Is and 25, Ralph Rivers of the Civic Committee, said.
 Although the Seattle business community raised funds to send the University of Washington Glee Club on a goodwill tour of Alaska, sponsorship in each town for mak- ing of local arrangements was re- quested. In this connection it was emphasized that the talent would be free hut that any town with an all-community charity or pro- ject could charge admission with all proceeds to go to same.
 All Juneau civic clubs agreed that this was an opportunity to build up the Memorial Library Fund, an undertaking approved by Juneauites, while at the same time charging less than would be nec- essary for the usual concert"
 Tickets for the matinee June 13, are $l, and for the evening con- cert June 25, s1.50. Student tickets for both concerts are 50 cents, tax included.
