LOU SW ARR
JOTTINGS

New York City-Soon another
year will be chalked up against
the roll of time and what will you
have to be in the stock as assets !?
That is a question which many of
us might want to be thinking about
now. AS an individual have you
given time to developing some
thing for the good of humanity.
Have you urged others to read our
own publications newspapers,
magazines, bulletins? Have you
given some of your time to MAX
world in which to live? Have you
ing others know this is a good
lived so that you do not have to
be ashamed within yourself?
Well, as a "Jotter" the above
paragraph is just a little food for
thought because soon Thanksgiv-
ing and then Christmas and then
1850.
At this instant | would like to
give you this Poem to think about:
A little more Kindness, little
less Greed
A little more Giving, little less
Greed.
A little more Smile, a little less
Frown,
A little less Kicking man when
he's down.
A little more WE, a little less /,
A little more laughter, little less
Cry.
A little more flowers on the path
way of Life,
And fewer on the graves at the
end of the strife.
Really, l think that the above
is something to think about in this
passing world and at this time it
might give you something to think
about which will do some good.
How about it?
By the way did you get your
copy of the Bulletin sent out by
NCNW; and are you getting ready
to send the delegate to the DC
meet November 18th to 18th?
This is still your Lou (Hotel

Judge Armstrong is Texan by birth and his head

his home in Natchez, Mississippi
Regardless of what the newspapers radio COM
menaors and the people the street have had say
about the Judge, can't deny the fact that he is
staunch believer in white supremacy for any man who
is willing to put up fifty million dollars to sustain his
belief and his philosophy of life compel him to be sim

The Judges Idea Of Christianity
Captain Johnson who formerly owned the Panther
burn Plantation Pantherburn, Sharkey County, Mis-
sissppi by the will of Cod fell asleep and his widow
Mrs. Johnson sold the plantation and out of the money
received, she aocated great sum of money for the
promotion of Christianity. Out Of this money she des
ignated YMCA building for the white people, All
Protestant denominations and including the Catholic
and the Jew alike and also in keeping with the customs
and tradition of the SOUTH she gave the Jackson Street
Branch YMCA to Negroes and equipped it. She also set
up salary for two years for coored YMCA
secretary to take charge of the work With her own
hands she helped to set out the shrubbery and super
vised the landscaping around the building.
Judge Armstrong and those who have your
attitude that's example of real Christian-The

you free of hate against all and the Lord Jesus

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Those in
the music trade who voiced the
opinion that Buddy Johnson's wax
ing of "Did You See Jackie Rob
inson Hit That Ball?" would be
strictly at dead issue when the
baseball season ended find them
selves surprised by the news that
the Johnson disc is selling at a
bigger clip than ever, even though
baseball has bowed out for the
year.
An additional 10000 copies of
the platter have been shipped to
southern distributors to meet
demand created by the current
transforming tour of the Jackie
Robinson All-Stars.
The Robinson squad, which also
includes Roy Campanella, Don
Newcombe, and Larry Dolby, is
playing a series of exhibition
games with Tearing Negro base
ball teams in the South.

Stenge| Jibes Red Sox
After Yanks Beat As
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

NEW YORK. Sept. 29.-"It
looked like it was going to be a
short circuit for u.s." Casey STEM
gel said just after his Yankees had
pulled a 7-to-5 victory over the
Athletics yesterday to keep the
New York pennant hopes alive.
Maybe" he said wryly. "the
Red Sox were listening to the
game on the radio. Maybe after
that seventh inning when the
Yankees came from behind to go
in front for good they'll figure
that maybe the Yankees are
pretty tough after all"
The Yanks successfully worked
the squeeze play in nipping the
Athletics. The New Workers blew
a 40 lead, the AS scoring five
runs in the seventh inning to go
out in front but the Yanks came
right back with three in their
half to win.
Lefty Alex Kellner walked Billy
johnson with the bases loaded to
force home the Yanks' first run
in their seventh inning rally.
Phil Rizzuto then squeezed Hank
Bauer home with the tie-breaking
run and Kellner followed with
a balk to push across the clincher.
