FOUR ACES IN LINE FOR ALL-AMERICAN HONORS By BILL MILLS (Crusader News Agency) WITH THE end of the 1938 gridiron season in sight those fans who indulge in the dizzy pastime of picking All-American teams are ur0 of one thing^ Jerome (Brud) Holland, Cornell, is their choice LOi* end. Those who witnessed his exhi bition of offensive and defensive play against Columbia last week j understand why Holland wa3 unan imously chosen All-Ameriean in I >937 although only a junior at the ' time. In the Cornell offense. Hol land is a dangerous as any back j field man. His tremendous speed gives the team an additional threat j on end around plays. Time and again ho has made these wide sweeping ^nd runds for forty and fifty yards gains. Not alt the hopes of Negro fans are based upon Holland. For the first tiny in history, a Negro player has appeared on the Paci fic Coast and received the publi city he deserves. Kenny Washing ton, half-back of th= UCLA is the haunting fear of every coach in the conference. Only a junior “Kenny the Kingfish ’ is the toast of the Campus at Beverly Hills, Last year, his first intercolle giate football, Kenny completed the longest forward pass. 72 yards in the conference. Kenny heaves these passes on the dc»d run. DARK LAUGHTER by 01 Harrington __,_:_- 1 11 ' " ' - — ~ FIGHT? NO OFFICER, THERE ST .iWMEAT TO LEAVE ON . VjiUZN T NO.

All this despit, the fact that ho kicked ten points after touch downs last year and bid8 to top that mark in this, his last season. A brother of the famous Ohio State tackle of some years back, Bell went to iMnn' sota to avoid the rotten jim-crow to which his brother was subjected when Ohio State journed to Annapolis to play Navy. Strangely enough^ it was anoth er Negro player, B-rnard Jeffer son, Northwestern halfback, who emerged the hero of that memora ble game. In the closing moments of tho game, Jefferson smashed his way through the Gopher line for ten yards and carried three tackh rs across the goal line to score the winning touchdown. Last year, Jefferson played with a jinx riding on his shoulder. In (h' Norhwestern-Nf'tre Dame game a bad toss from center caus ed him to delay his punt from behind the goal line. It wag bloek el by Sweeney of Notre Dame. Northwestern lost and Jefferson was the goat. This year the Wild cats have a winning team and if they emerge on top, Jefferson should take his pluee in that All American backfield, — —0O0 HOWARD. LINCOLN PLAN THANKSGIVING CLASSIC Washington, D.

Nov. 8—Tony Ga lento bellowed to the world today thait ho was the lone “white hope to displace heavyweight champ Joe Louis.’ Tho blubber belted saloonkeep er accused Louis of having talked John Henry Louis out of fighting him—Galento. Lewis had been scheduled to meet Galento in Phil adelphia in July, despite the fact that the Negro light heavyweight champ weighed 175 to Galento’s 240. Galento contracted pneumonia and the fight was called off. Now Lewis is signed to meet Louis and Galento is beefing that it’s all Loui-;’ fault. Galenito is a mediocre boxer of a rough elbow, mauling type who probably would last about one round with Louis before taking tha count. -oOo-—. 1 Fourteen white officers sent the following statement to the Mas rachusetts Legislature or.

Judah had five children and they were males (1st Chron. 2nd ch. 4th verse,) three by his first wife and two by his second wife (st Chron 2nd .ch. 3rd and 4th verse,) and both of wives were de scendents of Canaan, a black man who was the son of Ham (Gen. 10 ch. 6th v^rsc,) Tamar. Judah’s se cond wife, bore him two sons whoso names were Phares and Zarah (1st Chron. 2nd ch. and 4th verse.) these two names appear in; tho genearolgy of Jesus in the book of Matthew (1st. ch. 3rd. verse) St. Pauls tills up is (Ro mans 1-3 that Jesus wa» of the seed of David according to the flesh. David is the 10th man named i from Judah in the geneaolyg of Jesus. (Matt. 1st. ch. 3rd. 5th 5th 6th verses.) Every Bible reference proclaims that Jesus was to spring from this tribe of Judah (Gen. 49-10. Hi'b. 7-14, Rev. 5-5.) At Bristo 1, in England for many years about the eleventh century a brisk trade was carried ^ on in purchasing Englishmen and exporting them to Ireland for sale.

Queen Elizabeth was the first Englishwoman to share in the pro fits of slavery. Henry O. Tanner, Negro, fam ous paintelr"of biblical scenes, was born in Pittsburg, Penn, son of Bishop Tanner of the AME church. He first studied in the art schools of Philadelphia from which train ing he went to Paris and studied under Benjamin Constant and Ju- v lien. 1 In 1895 his “Sabot Maker” was shown in Paris. In 1896 he exhibi ted “Daniel in the Lion’s Den” the painting (first) of a line of reli gious works with which his fame has been since connected. The Chi cago Art Institute purchased for $1,600 his “Two Disciples at the Toml.” When the slave trade was in its heights, . 50 000 or 100,000 were * them brought over every year.
