but who hasn't come home first
thus far this year. He was run
nerup to Campbell last week.
IT'S merely a matter of the
breaks" Marriott said in discuss
ing his inability to match last

of weeks ago I was in front and
going away when I was blinded
by the dust. Before I could re-
adjust myself, the race was over

Both men played well at the
net, but neither hit hard of their

portunities for passing shots were
missed because the speed neceS-

Balbiers and Stewart depended
more on ground strokes than any

matches, Rallies from back
court were frequent, with each
carefully paving the way before
venturing up forward. Clark was

In adopting the governors sal
airy equalization plan the legis-
lature threw aside the bill spon-
sored by the Mississippi Educa-
ton Association. The governors
bill differs from that of the as
ISOLATION in that it requires teach
ers TO take an examination in or
der to fix the salary bracket into
which they will be placed.
The bill as passed by both
houses contained substantially the
same features rejected by both
White and Negro teachers in
statewide voting last year.
On the subject of Negro educa-
ton, one of the states greatest
neglects, and one which is rapidly
becoming one of its major prob
lens because of the growing de-
sire OF Negro citizens for greater
if not equal education for their
children, little or nothing had been
done by the state Legislature Up
to the end of last week.
In both houses Of the legisla-
ture die-hards have injected the
Negro issue at every opportunity
to defeat legislation aimed at inn
proving Negro educational oppor-
tunity in the state.
A bill to establish a law school
at Alcorn College was killed in
the house.
Before the senate last week was
a proposal by Senator Kyle, re-
garded in well-informed circles IS
only a stop-gap measure, which
called for regular two year
school support fund of $35 million,
with So million to equalize Negro
teachers salaries, the money to be
distributed to districts on the
basis of the number of Negro stu
dents, it being left to the school
trustees to raise Negro teachers
salaries as they see fit.
The proposal also calls for 81
million to improve Negro school
transportation and for 81 r'ilhor
for the State Building Commission
to begin a Negro school construc-
ton program.

Ban OF Whipping
In Tanganyika

GENEVA, Switzerland-One of
several recommendations made in
a report on British Administra-
ton of Tanganyika for 1913 by
the UN trusteeship council here
last week was that Britain abolish
whipping as a punishment IN that
territory as soon as possible.
The report, adopted unanimous
ly by the council, Landed Britain's
steady progress in all fields of ad-
ministration in the territory. but
said there was room for improve
ment.
In another section, the report
expressed satisfaction at The gen
eral Improvement in the territory
during the year under review.
This statement, however, brought
am objection from the Chinese

cost-of-living indexes to prove
the statement.

The speaker was Jersey Joe
Walcott.
Charles ought to give me an
other crack. Who else can he
fight that could bring a decent
gate? If anyone else thinks he

eff Louis is serious about COM

Jersey Joe has been to the

now but he still bankers for that
crown.
Maybe he's got something there
about the lack of opposition.
Jersey Joe, who admits to 36
years, made his speech last night

the Cuban heavyweight champion,
in oil of the seventh round of
their feature bout at Madison
Square Garden. Walcott, l to 4

about the same by the MIA. Yet

In the houes a bill was adopted
authorizing the formation Of coun-
ty-wide Negro school district with
power to levy as much as 1G-
mill tax to support Negro schools.
The proposal to create county
wide Negro school districts was
sharply attacked by informed Ne
gro citizens. They pointed out
that such districts in the past
have included only Negro prop
erty, and pointed out that Negro
property owners were thus re-
quired to pay the regular school
levy with the addition of the sep
arate Negro school district levy.
Regarding the Bates case, in
formed sources did not show dis
appointment over the action of
Judge Mize. They simply point
ed out that the case was now on
its way to the U. S. Supreme
Court where the final decision will
be rendered. These sources point
ed out that the case here as far
as Mrs. Bates was concerned was
a necessary process in the making
Of the record for the U. s. Su-
preme Court.
AS to the final outcome Of the
Bates case it was pointed out that
in identical cases the court has
pointed out that it would be a
waste of time for a Negro to at
tempt to go through the so-called
