Norman, Okla. The University
of Oklahoma this week accepted
second Negro for entrance and IS
planning to consider third ap-
plication to enroll in the Univer-
sity. The Young lady who enroll
ed for Is hours of classroom per
week is Mrs. Opherita Daniels,
the wife of Prof. Oscar Daniels,
who is a Railway Mail Clerk on
M. X. & T. Railway Both Prof,
and Mrs. Daniels are graduates
of Arkansas Baptist College at
Little Rock and both taught
number of years in the undergrad
Augusta, Arkansas city school. Mrs
Daniels was admitted under term
of a Federal Court Order which
last autumn forced on to admit
Prof. G.. w. McLaurin TO graduate
courses in Education.
Regents will convene very early
to consider the case of Mrs.
Mauderie Hancock Wilson. Because
Mrs. Wilson applied last September
for the first time, the Attorney
General left her admission up to
the discretion of the Regents. He
recommended Mrs. Daniels because
she applied here year ago, ana
Federal Judges held that a year
was sufficient time for the State
to prepare equal facilities for
Negroes on a segregation bases.
Mrs. Daniels, besides studying at
Arkansas Baptist College under
the late DR.. Joseph A, Booker's
regime as President, also studied
at Loyola University in Chicago.
She plans to commute between
here and Oklahoma City each day
as does Mr.. McLaurin.
The Regents are expected to APP
prove some type Of segregation
arrangement for Mrs. Daniels
similar to that provided for Mr.,
McLaurin.
Mr.. McLaurin has gone back to
court to oppose the separate eat
ing and studying facilities pro-
vided for him He receives class
room instruction at a desk set in
an ante-room opening into a
large hall where white students
sit. He can see very well, but has
quite a task hearing at times.
Langston, Okla At Langston
University where students went
on strike because President Harri-
son dismissed Prof. Roscoe Ches-
ley, an instructor, things are
quiet and somewhat calm, but
much dissatisfaction and dislike is
noted among the students and
teachers over the dismission of the
popular instructor. Prof. Chesley
led a student demonstration at the
State Capitol before the lawmakers
of Oklahoma, and refused to "a
pologize for his act Prof. Chesley
is a graduate of Bishop College and
at one time served in the Business
Managers office.

makes me pretty mad when Dixie
Gratis Or any other "crats" won't
let me work when I'm supposed
to. Not that I like working so
much, just like to see job we'll
done. I think it's a job of educa-
ton. The Dixiecrats have to be
educated to the fact that Negroes
are capable of watching them
count ballots, and Negroes will
have to be educated to the fact
that the Press should be resogniz-
ed. We hear criticisms all over
the place when newspaper says
pay for this or that, but when
the Press of its own validity de-
cides to cover an affair and give
free publicity, its representative

Mr.. Baur cleared and improved it. To-

which produces 5 to 6 tons to the acre.

Lexington Ties Soils

Two undefeated teams, the
Lexington Hornets and the Sails
Wildcats, clashed Friday evening
at Lexington before a record
crowd. and when the final whistle
sounded, both teams walked off
the field, still undefeated, in an
1918 tie.
The game was as clean and as
hard-fought as any ever PLAYED
at Lexington. Armour popped,
dirt flew and preparation poured
from players and spectators alike.
yet not single penalty for any
unsportsmanlike conduct was re-
ceived by either team. Six touch
downs were made, three each for
Lexington and Sails, but neither
team was able to push over for
the extra point that would have
meant victory.

Plant Winter Cover
Crops This Month
by w. r. Sullivan. County Agent

~ W. Ah' 0uAAAVdns SOuntY Agent
Plant winter cover crops during
the month of October where pos
sible. Winter cover crops will
prevent soil from eroding and will
furnish a needed supply of nitro
gen for next years crop. A good
stand of the winter legumes will
supply from 40 to so pounds of
available nitrogen which is the
equivalent of $50 pounds of am
monia nitrate per acre. In the
NIL area crimson clover at the
rate OF IL pounds per acre makes
an excellent cover crop on well
drained land. Do not plant Grim
son clover on wet, cold land. For
your wetter, heavier land wild
winter peas at the rate of so to
oO pounds per acre will give good
results. Other cover crops that
may be planted are vetch-4O to
30 pounds per acre and Austrian
winter peas at the rate of IS
pounds per acre. If you can pro-
tect your farm from other peo-
pies livestock winter cover crops
pay big dividends. Make every
effort possible to plant your cult
waited land in cover crops. The
PIMA office will pay so per cent
Q r more on the cost of the seed.
Contact your PIMA office before
securing seed.
