HEW STARS FOR ‘34 - ‘35?
With the opening ot school brings
few promising athletic stars. “Big
ohn’’ Elliot, the only one that woukl
haye #iown anything, is lost because
•f the four year ruling. Vaughn, Inst
year’s freshman football star from Tech
has a slight chaaoe of coming through
this ya.tr for that Maroon first team. |
Of all the color’d boys ent’ed in our
Ublic high schools at least more than
these 2 lads should be outstanding,
f course, there are a few others, but
they don’t show any real interest in
the fields of sport. Take Earl Ander
son, for instance, one of Marty Thomas’
■oteges and center for the Mid City
ces, league champions, has what it
akes to make a basketball player, yet
he fails to show any real interest in this
port in tbe school. He would rather
play on some indepenrent team.
Weil, it had almost gotten by tha
Theasus Standifer, for the past two
years been a tackle flor the Maroon
gridiron .squad. And this fall ishould
oe In there in the final check up.
Perhaps it is wondered why so many
fail to show interletU in these sports.
well, the answer is easy, there is usu
ally some girl at the foot of it ail.
His ‘iHiortf' is *escor((in^ one of tie
weaker sex home dressed in neat
taildred suits, rather than bumping
against hard, hot, sweating bodies on
the grid iron or on a basketball court
Little do they realize that this sort of
action does not in any way
build up *no body physically or mem
ally, but distracts the mind
from, “amost" everything,” but the
girl.
Less concentration on girls land more
on spur's wouid give us a lot better
athletics and CITIZENS.

* SCHOOL DAYS
By Paul Jay
School days, school days, dear old
golden rule days are with us once
again. Eager little tots are start
ing out for that great adventure of
tha first day of school while high
school seniors look forward to the
long road that ends with graduation
To the pupil in the lower grades
it often looks Ike a long weary climb
before the heights of knowledge are
reached. We have all had these mo
ments, especially along about ex
amination time.
Education is a slow and at times
a painful process, but It rewards far
exceed the difficulties encountered in
securing it- There must be patience
if one would grow intellectually- The
painstaking plodder is far more like
ly to succeed than the brilliant
student who is unwilling to spend the
time necessary to achieve success.
Gaining an education is like erect
ing a beautiful building. The founda
tion must be broad and strong. Each
day we must bring to our work en
thusiasm, courage, strength. Little
by little the edifice must be built
until at last it stands a testimonial
of our determination and effort.
The youth of today have advan
tages offered them never dreamed of
by their forefathers. There is almost
no limit to the possibilities for ad
vancement afforded them.
All that is needed is the determina
tion to succeed coupled with the

vision to glimpse the years ahead
If Bob wants to be a lawyer or a
chef he is wise if he makes his de
cision at an early age and shapes
everything in his life toward attain
ing success in his chosen field.
So often years are wasted in an
attempt to find the work for which
one is suited. One should build their
life around the work they choose to
do and make of that work no matter,
how simple it may be, something that
is beautiful and inspiring.
I know a man who has spent a
lifetime perfecting a particular kind
of flower. Perhaps he may never be
wealthy or famous, but he has gain
ed from his work, well done a satis
faction known only to those who have
achieved tlte goal for which <they
have toiled.
Boys and girls stake out your
claim; do the necessary development
work on it, stick doggedly to your
determination to succeed and there
will be no question but that your
fondest dreams will be realized.
Young people of America, standing
on the threshhold of life I salute you.
You are the men and women, the
willing forces in the great army of
endeavor as well as the leaders of
tomorrow.

Thirteen workers, three of them wo
men and including Chambers, Hougardy,
Collentz, Plesh, Decker, Hung, Wislon,
Ford Kirkwood Norman and Nor*
Conklin and Jack Warnick face charges
of criminal syndicalism.
A special Criminal Syndicalism De
fense office will open in Sacramento
by the International Labor Defense,,
it was announced.
The orginal indictments on C. S.
charges were obtained before grand
jury had seen the complaints or listen
ed to the evidence, it was revealed. On
a demurrer filed by Leo Gallagher, I.
L. D. attorney four of the six counts
in each case were dismissed. District
Attorney Neil McAllister, however, is
busily engaged in announcing |hese
counts.
I. L. D. investigators have can
vassed typical blocks of midde-ciass
and working-cass population, to find
out the sentiment of the people of Sa
cramento in regard to the vagrancy
and C. S. Cases.
In a block of purely working-class
homes, every worker expressed the con
viction that the “whole thing is Just
political bunk,” and th*t McCalister
was just trying to get votes. Every
one stated that although he was not a
Communist, at east the Communists are
honest. Some expressed their inten
tion of voting the Communist ticket.
In this country, John Funkner, Com
munist candidate for Sheriff, got 2,000
votes.
In a middle-class block, wlith one or
two exceptions, the answers were uni-!
form and ran to the effect that no one
believed a revolution was ready at the'
time of the general strike, that the
Communists had a right to be on the
ballot, that they did not know much
about vagrancy trials but were opposed
to the citys money being used fer such
political purposes, that they did not
know what criminal syndicalism was
(with a few exceptions) but, when told
that the trials would cost tsn of thou
sands of dollars that this was running
the whole thing into the ground.
Most of those canvassed said they had
no objection to the Communists having
the use of the park. Most expressed
the belief that the red scare was a pol
itical issue being brought up on account
of the elections, but few expressed the
opinion that tha matter went deeper
than that, a°d was an expression of
fascism.

lets, 10.
The two defending champions of the
southwestern Iowa, baseball tourna
ment "broke even” in the delayed finals
at Council Bluffs Sunday afternoon, the
Carter Lakes coming through to repeat,
.but the Chevrolets failed by a wide mar
gin, losing to the Memphis Red Sox by
several classifications.
The tournament moguls shifted the
final schedule, playing the Class A
game first and the Class B game laat
the first time such an arrangement has
ever had. From the spectator’s ponmt
of view it was a wise move, since tho
Chevrolets were completely outclassed
by the Memphis boys, the final score
being. 22 to 10. The closing contest
was a spirited affair, and held most of
the 4000 spectators despite the darken
ing akies and frequent bits of ruin
drops. Tho Lakes defeated Red Oak,
by a 3 to 1 margin.
WINS $1,000 POT
The Memphis team collected fl.OOC
for winning the Bluffs Class A cham
pionship, and it was “soft' pickings.
McKain' club got ..$500, plus an extra
century for having played four game®.
McKain declared he was unable to ob
tain the players he desired, owing to
Western league clubs playing double
headers in the afterneon.
The . .Memphis Bed Sox set up a new
scoring record to beat the Chevroieta. j
and if they hadn't slowed down in the
last two innings, refused to run out
their hits, it might have boon worse.
Ehler started for the ex-champs, but
was wild and ineffective, and was ac
corded terrible support. McKain went
in the box in the third, and the carnage ^
continued with uninterruption.
Manager Curry of the Memphis team
opened for his club in the first inning
with a home run. Harry Schneider of
the Bluffs club homered later, and so
did “Suitcase" Mason, whose drive
came with bases loaded.
Bob McKoran’s Carter Lake Club took
the $500 Class B money, while $350 went
to Red Oak.
TIKS TOURNEY MARK
"Swede” Carlsen tied a tourney re
cord hung up a 11 years ago When he
pitched and won tlie Lakes fourth
straight victory. Johnny Intlekofer,
the loser, was also seeking a fourth
consecutive victor.
The game was snappy, and had many
fielding features, chief among which
were probably star runninjg catches
by Eddie Henningsen, Kaderiet and
Marcuzzo. Vachal pulled Carlsen out of
a tough 8pot In the third when he snag
ged Bill Lyman's low liner with the
bases tilled and turned it into a double
play.
Red Oak scored Its solitary run In
the opening inning, Monde Marcuzzo
opening with a single to right, on which
he continued to third as the ball got
away from Kadereit. An infield exit
seored him.
In the second tfia Lakes scored what
i
proved to be the winning run, as Niemlc
singled and Olangrasso doubled with
none down. Camoro’s hot poke lined
past the pitcher for a clean tingle, both
men scoring. The third run c&me two
innings later on four staight singles
after two were down. 4
