3N THE REALM OF ...S POR T S... Morehouse Wins Classic Defeats Morris Brown Atlanta, Georgia, Oct. 26— Special—Led by the forward passing attack of McCurine and Boswell, Morehouse College today defeated Morris Brown, last year’s Southern Conference champions, by ascore of 7'6 before 5,000 rabid fans at the annual Atlanta classic in Ponce de Leon Park, and thereby moved a notch nearer the Southern Conference champion ship. The all-round play of the Maroon Tigers was superior at all times. Although the first half ended in a deadlock, the superiority of Morehouse was evidenced by its ability to over come the 6"0 lead that Morris Brown established in the third quarter. Morris Brown scored early i nthe third quarter when More house attempted a run from the 13 yard line and fumbled. Pow ell of Morris Brown fell on the ball behind the Morehouse goal line. Morehouse, quickly recov ering, opened up its earial at tack and it was not long then before McCurine, stellar More house halfback, heaved a per fectly timed pass into the arms of Boswell who raced an ad ditional 25 yards for the touch' down. The extra point was made by Clark, thus giving Morehouse the narrow margin of victory. The fourth quarter of the game was filled ' with thrills until the final whistle. In order to overcome the one point lead of Morehouse, Morris Brown opened up its offensive, while Morehouse played with deter mination amf skill to hold fast its lead. The game was marked by the brilliant and versatile play of Smith, Johnson, and “Sad Sam“ Jones of Morris Brown, and by the gerat performances of McCurine, Boswell, Haynes and Clar kfor Morehouse. Con. Mitchell Visits Virgin Islands St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, Nov. 2—-(ANP)—Congressman Arthur W. Mitchell, of Illinois, arrived here Tuesday and for the second time in the history of the Islands a Negro was a guest at the Government House. Reports say that the Con' gressman was here to make a general survey of the condi tions existing in the govern mental and civic circles. He was the guest of Governor Lawrence W. Cramer and on his first day here conferred with the Harbor board in coin-j pany with the governor. Upon his return to Washington, it is understood that he will seek funds for the harbor'dredging project, which has already been placed before President Roose velt. The Congressman was accord ed every courtesy due a holder of his position and visited all governmental branches. At tempts to interview him, how' ever, as to the results of his findings proved futile due as he stated to “lack of time/’ Weight tests have shown that ten elephants could stand on the wings of some large pas senger airplanes without caus ing them to collapse.

Many delegates to the con vention expressed the opinion that the sentence against Hern don was a blow at the trade union movement. James Carey, President of the National and Allied Trades, stated: “While such laws as the Georgia insurrection law exist .labor will never have the power to organize freely and win demands to which it is en' titled.” “We’ve got to make a nation wide campaign for Herndon’s freedom ,and to repeal the in surrection law,” declared Fm;l Costello, delegate from Wiscon sin. “There will he lots of A. F. of L. organizers on the same chain gang unless the trade unions throughout the countrv demand that sueh laws be striken from the books.” The president of the TTnion Mine Workers local of Butte, Montana, urged immediate ac tion for Herndon on the part of trade unionists, saving: “The law under which Hern" don Was convirfttfd serves to put our best leaders in jail. They should be repealed at once and the victim set free.” Plough Workers Return To Work i Memphis ,Tenn., Nov. 2— (ANT*)—After striking for sev eral days for higher wages, workers at the Plough Chem ical Company returned to work here Thursday when a compro mise was reached at a confer ence between union officials and the officials of the com pany. While the Plough Chemical Company does a tremendous business among Negroes of the country, and employs some Negro workers, none of the Negro workers participat ed in the strike. Reports state that Negroes and whites are paid the same wages for doing similar wor kbut that the Ne gro workers are unorganized and are denied membership in the. union which ordered the “walk-out'' last week.

The very few individual instances of Ne groes who have had a little for tutious wealth have not, as a rule, furnished a wholesome or encouraging example. TVu\v 0 ave scarcely been able to trans mit to their children either the wealth or the cultural reen forcement of a sustained social elite. I have studied the situa tion at Howard University for more than fifty years. Very, very seldom have students, whose parents could pay their bills without strain, with extra allowance for social gaities and frivolities, justified the expense lavished upon them or kept pace with their poorer fellow tudents who had to struggle for existence. It does not seem likely that Negroe’s social distinction, in the near future at least, can he based upon the possession of wealth. The number of wealthy Negroes or even the well-to-do Negroes is less today than it was a generation ago, and is likely to he less in the future than it, is today. He is an opti mist of the first water who has the daring to prophesy that wealth will be the portion of the Negro under the hard in dustrial and economic lot which le is now facing. Whatever soc ial pretentions, therefore, to which the Negro may aspire must be based upon grounds other than the ownership of wealth. Intelligence, character, culture and high-mindedness everywhere are supplanting the old foundation of social grad uation. Those must form the pil lars upon which the Negroe’s new social life must be built.

Washington has eight or nine hundred Negro school teachers whose average educa tional and cultural opportunit ies and whose average remuner ation is higher than that of any (thcr element in the community. No other city has so large a |class of highly cultured and highly remunerated educators. There are ten times that num !ber of Negroes employed in the Federal government whose sal aries rank well above that which the race receives in oth er pursuits either here or else where. jTmong those govern ment employees there is a eon jsiderable contingent in the higher levels of the service who are men of college education and cultural outlook. There is always the smaller group of distinguished Negroes in the higher levels of public service such as Judges, Recorders, Dip lomats and high-grade assist ants in the several departments of the government. Of course, no other city can duplicate this number. Howard University, the premier institution of high er learning for The Negro race, is located here with a faculty of two hundred and fifty pro feasors, instructors and offic ials, most of whom are colored. The Capital city would, there fore, have the largest number of lawyers, doctors, ministers and men and women of the higher cultural impulse and training than any other city in the country. During the last decade the Federal Oovernment, the public schools and Howard Nniversity have established a policy of re tiring their employees at ages ranging from sixty to seventy.

Indeed, at seventy he has just reached the age of I intellectual maturity when lie can revel in cultural, spiritual and moral contemplation.
