Do We Need A Federal Anti - Lynch Law These Are - Horrible Pictures To_Look At But the object of these pictures is to make your red blood boil, if you have any, so you will help to put a stop to these Unamerican, inhuman, horrible acts. If you don’t want to look upon these kind of pictures send a telegram to the President today, ask him to use his in- fluence today with Congress to force a vote on the anti lvneh bill Walter White, secretary of the»N. A. A. C. P. says he has enough votes to pass this bill now but the enemies are trying to pigeon hole this bill. Masked pressure must be used to force this bill to the floor for a vote. Send the President a telegram today, also your Congressman, and Senator, and d<*man action ow or refuse to listen to political oratory for the coming primary election. DO WE NEED A FEDERAL ANTI LYNCH LAW Another "-asked hideous, act of a bunch of heath ens burning a human being alive. Less than 10 days alter tne burning indy discovered that they had burned the wrong man. This happened in St. Joseph, Missouri. Now they come double, and th<jy are not Negroes either. Mob rule knows no color and this is what Gov. Rolph of California says. He will pardon any man that is convicted for doing this act. Well, Gov. Rolph has discovered his health will not permit him to run to suc ceed himself. Years ago in the beginning of lynch law. they wore pillow cases over thefir heads and clothed their body in white sheets but that was before the act was indorsed by State elected officers. Above shows mid night frolic with a group of heathens clothed in sheets. And this is Mississippi, if passing the anti-lynching bll will stop these kind of inhuman acts, it ought to be done today. Send the President a telegram today, urging him to use his influence to get th anti-lynching bill on the floor to be voted upon.

Discus throw—125 feet 10 inches by Gilbert, South, 1927 Javeln throw—156 feet 1% inches by Jones, Technical, 1927. At this stage of the game it ap pears quite likely that fire intercity high school track records may fall this week-end if the youthful athletes are given a warm, still day and lots of good competition. Joe Shenfield, Technicals High.s dis tance trotter, should lower both the half-mile and mile marks. He set a a mile record of 4:46-6 1st spring and has been jogging around the oval con sistently close to that clocking with out being extended. The 2:05-4 time which Olson of Tech nical established in 1932 is not ex pected to stand the gaff when Shen field goes out after it- Joe qualified for the state championships in 2:05 and had plenty of gas left when he hit the tape Tech athletes already hold eight of the nine intercity running and hurd ling records so Shenfield’s mark smash ing, if it occurs, will merely fortify Maroon supremacy on the cinders Walsh of Abraham Lincoln, who broke the high hurdle mark last year as a senior, is the only non-Techster oa the books In the field, high jump, javelin and discus marks are wobbling on the wall ■schoeder of Thomas Jefferson leap ed 5 feet 10% inches in 1928 but Cy Kildahl of Benson has has hit six feet this season, Joe Ewald of Abra ham Lincoln 5 feet 10% inches and John Brown of South 5 feet 10 inches.
