Both teams were handicapped in the outfield by mud and water— balls that were hiv in the outfield could have been ea*y outs but there was mud and water to prevent both sides fiom catching Uall8 that —went foi hits, other wise could have been taken. The game started off like the Colored boys were going to be a lazy vic tor—they made 4 runs in the first inning—Lawson up in the first, singled to right then Young work ed the pitcher for a walk, then the ever dependable Manley strikes out. Then comes Tanley who doubled to center—Law so a scored Young goes to third then Scott singled scored Young and Tapley. Then comes Grady Frye who scor ed Scott on an infield out, Scott stole second, went to 3rd on a pass ball—Hall up, out to pitcher at first—net results 4 runs on 3 SPORTS HEADLINERS bv J --- --- - » / ne&.e coMe 1 l D*T L6PT A GMj&NTOS LG FT HkS 7R£*\£ND0US KNOCKOUT POWGft/ — BUT (T IS eHTlR£LV TOO SLOW FOR,7Hfc AJAMINGLV QUICKj LOUIS I r^i v - WHfcU TH€* BOM Ben PrTCHeS 'THAT THUMOtBJNC R.IGHT At TDNVS MiD’SfcCTION - it'll Bt C0R.TAINS / jut oj\s THe TUiO-RPuND TeFJJPR.

He made the 4th man fly out to Bill Young and the 5th fly out to Hall in short. The basses still loaded with two outs then old pitchers lost his con trol again and walked in the white boys. First Tally then this Hall made a brilliant stop to peg his man out at second to retire the side. I am telling you fans that was a hetic ball game Why in the Hirst of the ninth the white boys knocked the ball all over the lot to run in 6 runs, then Mr. Wal ker was relieved of his pitching duties in the ninth with one on and two out. The whole team went into conference on the pitcher’s mound. They decided to trust Mr .Don Morton to bring them out of their woes. The first man he pitches to he walks. Oh! oh, cried Soup Lawson. Woe is me. The next batter Mr. Morton don’t like his looks. He hauls off and hit him with the ball. That put 2 men on and two out. The third man up flies to Tapley to end the ball game. What a relief to the Dyed in the wool fans wjio journ iod out to see the boys play the Gold trophy goes to Louis Grant the best rooter the Colored boys ever had. Why he walked one mile twice for a bucket of water to cool the boys’ tonsils and kick ed up 1 ton of dirt. Aitta boy, Louie, keep it up. The rooting they need and lots f more fans like you. The game ended 15 for the Colored boys—14 for the white boys. That makes 2 wins and one loss. P. S.—Clannie Leo got 3 hits— what was wrong Clannie—Grain Belt is good for you it seems. -oOo NOTICE!

DRISCOLL IS BOYS TOWN COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER (continued from p. 3) country and throughout the work!? Air conditioning, sound deadening, modern lighting! Take them and rebuild the world,” chal lenged Mr. Driscoll. Continued Mr. Driscoll, “As for exploration, only abouj. one third of the earth’s surface has ever been seen by man. A start has been made on the polar regions, but the vast area under the ocean, constituting two and one half tim es as much land surface as all the dry land in the world, has hardly been glimpsed by man. And, I as sure you, out of every slight ex perience at the bo tom of the sea, that there is no more romatic or exoiting job ahead of the human raco than this conquest of this great new unexplored frontier. Elixirs and medicines to cure the bodily ills of men, truths yet un guessed by science are there. “We stand upon the brink of great discoveries. New machines are coming, and we are told that they will make us free, the new forms of government are in birth and that they will make us free, that laws are about to be 'assed, and that they will make us free and happy. "Please do not be deluded, c/my the truth will make us free and the problems of the world will never be solved by passing laws. I hope you will free yourself now from the dreadful superstition of the law passers. The good laws come out of good living, and not good living out of laws We cannot be saved from wars, depressions, or calamities by treaties set down on paper and fiigned by scheming diplomats. Fast airplanes we have, but where are we going in them? The mag ic of radio we have, but what have we to say to the listening multi tudes? A better world waits not upon laws, nor yet upon inventions What then? If you must have it in short and simple language, it waits upon that, ancient sacrifice, a broken and contrite heart. “We could afford a moratorium upon material program and law passing for a generation, if in place of those activities we could have a generation devoted to ed ucating 'the human race in the recognition of those values that have been set forth for you boys by your teachers here in Boys Town." Mr. Driscoll recalled a state ment made by one of his college teachers, “whatever you think most about, that you will put into your life, that you will become.” He cited the story of two 28 year old New Yorker* to pror* the truth of his teacher’* remark. The boys were classmates at (the University of Florida. One was Douglas Leigh, who had to quit school before (he had completed his college course. Let Mr Dris coll tell the story. “Leigh found a job with an out door advertising company, and learned about electric signs. On commencement day, this young man returned to the campus, wit nessed the triumph of his friend, and offered his congratulations, i And as he shook his friend’s hand he said to him, “Sam, you have great talent as an actor. I am just a sign painter, but some day I am going to put up your name in lights on Broadway. Sam was sure his friend would succeed. Last fall Sam Byrd produced a play on Broadway His friend provided the neon lights to an nounce his play.” Whatever you think most about, that you will put into your life, that you will be come, added Mr. Driscoll. A part of the commencement exercises, including Mr. Driscoll's address, was broadcasted by the Mutual networks from coast to coast, ithe program originating from KOIL, Omaha. The Reverend Joseph H. Ost diek, Superintendent of Schools of the Omaha Diocese, gave the In vocation, and the Reverend Charl es Durden, of the First Baptist Church of Omaha, offered the Benediction.

Stepped upon the; train coach’s step and yelled: “Board!” Then he waved his forward signal to the engineer, who pulled the throttle. There was a steaming sound, and the train moved slowly forward. “Good bye!” cried a rudy faced girl, apparently sixteen as she waved good bye to another girl, who leaned against the inside coach window. They waved at each other until the train passed under the bridge and soon the station at Roa noke was in the distance. “She must love you very much. I saw she was crying.” The girl turned sharply to meet #ie smiling gaze of Carl Smifli who reclined in the seat behind her. “Yes, my kid sister. She’s cry ing because I’m going away. First time we have ever been separated. “May I help you put up your bags?” he asked rising to go to her seat. “Oh thank you.” "Don’t thank me. I should offer thanks to you.” The girl blushed cutely and mov ed into the isle. "(iomg very iar r ne asuea. “Yes, qui s c distr.uc f’.ie re plied protectively, yet politely. Carl snapped for words to con tinue. He felt a peculiar feeling shroud him. She seemed kind; but hot too eager to meet strangers. “Thank you again,” she said with a smile and took her seat and open ed a magazine and began reading as Carl returned to his seat. “I've got to meet her!” he mused to himself; “but ...” He didn’t finish. An idea struck him, and he left his seat and walked to the water cooler at the front end of the coach. He glanced at her as she showed an apparent interest in the passing scenery. To further attract her attention, he opened the vestibule door and stepped outside. The loud popping of the rails surely would attract her attention, h e thought, but still she didn’t mind his act. ,l “Hard number,” he whispered to himself as he stood on the steel platform of the outer vestibule. Soon he returned, and stopped at the water cooler and took another drink. He gazed at her long and lustfully while drinking from the paper cup. His strong gaze should have instinctively drawn he r glance; but she held on. Something seemed to move about within him aa he puzzled his brain for another method to seek her acquaintence. And not brand himself as a meddler. He walked back to his seat. His Ignored him. “Restlessness sometimes breeds curiosity,” he thought, and racily arose and strode to the water cool er and forced down five small cups of water. Then after his final cough failed to get her attention, he filled a fresh cup with the cool liquid and walked to her seat, de termined to win or fail. He stood igainst the arm of Tier seat, arf# starred down at her. She fidigeted a bit and finally her curiosity be came a tormentor and she faced him, wearing an expression of mys tification. “Won’t you have a drink Miss?" he asked. “I know you must be tired after lugging such a heavy suitcase as that one,” he said nod ding towards her luggage. “No thank you. I’m not thirsty,” she answered with an air of indif ference. His courage arose, and the sonl burning desire to form her ac quaintence increased. “I don’t think its fair for a girl to accept difficult courtesies from strangers, and not take the littlo courtesies from the same strang ers,” he added, raising his eye brows wittingly. She turned with a subdued smile trying to hide her bored or sur passed feeling, and reached for the water and drank it thirstily. She finished and smiled handing him the cup. “Another?” “No thank you.” - - He sat on the arm rest of her sea’. now long Deiore we n reacn me Blue Ridge Mountains?” he asked. “About an hour perhaps,” he said glancing at her wrist watch. Then she turned towards the passing scenery leaving him sitting on the arm rest. His body felt chilled and his mind again became clouded. “I hear they are very beautiful and I’ve longed to see them. Many writers have penned off master pieces about them. I might get the same inspiration.” “Do you write?” she asked, fac ing him pleasantly, her countenance showing a different expression. “Well, I have a small booklet of poetry which I published last year. It isn’t very much; but some dayj I might do something worth while, if I ever get the inspiration from! the right source." “What would you consider the right source?” W'hat will his answer lead to?i Read next week’s issue of this all Negro story sponsored by the ad vertiser listed below, and please as sist to find another James Weldon Johnson by patronizing the adver tiser below. “THE FAIR SKIN CREAM” WHITE’S SPECIFIC FACE CREAM ’ i (Bleach) 1 y Helps You Toward.
