I Th* SPORTSCOPE By Jocko Maxwell NEWr YORK, (Global) — The past week-end featuring the play ing of several traditional games by the college football teams, found the money taking quite a licking. Army’s 48 to 14 rout of a supposedly strong Columbia 11 was the biggest stumbling block. Others will follow in this topsy turvy gridiron season. Our advice is to keep your government let tuce in your wallet. We were glad to see Buddy Young score in one of the six pointers that aided Illinois to bowl ; over Wisconsin 27 to 21. Young has beben hampered of late by a shoulder and leg injury and to date he is a far cry from his 1945 gait at Fleet City, when he ri valed Glen Davis as the best ball carrier in the land. .New York University’s football team pulled a mild surprise last week defeat ing favored Rochester U 6 to 0. Freddy Burgess, burley Negro back, played great ball and set up the winning score for the not too violent Violets. .Levi Jackson Win A Beauty Course Free! • 1st Prize—Free Course in Beauty Culture. • 2nd Prize1— Three Prizes $50 Towards Complete Beauty Course. • 3rd Prize— Four Prizes $25 Towards Complete Beauty Course. -For Information Call or Write ALTHOUSE BEAUTY SCHOOL Telephone ATlantic 1675 2715-2717 North 24th Street Omaha 10, Nebraska Keep Kelso Morgan REPUBLICAN COUNTY ATTORNEY HE HAS BEEN FAIR and I KEPT HIS PROMISES. . .•••••••••••»• ••••••••••iimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiii ii ii 1111 ii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii .in..

Yale’s sensational freshman full back is still a marked man. Last week Howie Odell used him as a decoy in the disputed 6 to 6 dead lock with Cornell. However, it was Jalckson’s potent 11 yard plunge through the Big Red’s line that gave Ole Eli it’s only score. We believe that Jackson will blossom into one of collegi ate football's greatest fullbacks before he receives his sheepskin from the Connecticut college. He travels with the power of a Sher man tank! Kenny Washington, yesterday’s great forward passin’ ace while at UCLA is having a particularly tough season with the Los Ange les Rams. It seems as if Adam Walsh, the Ram's coach, is using the famous T formation system. The system as you know calls for a signal caller who can handle the ball flawlessly and has good legs. Washington is not exactly a stranger when it comes to caressing a pigskin. However a recent operation on Kenny’s knee has slowed him down to a cake walk. The former UCLA sensation is finding the opposition plenty rough on a gridded who can’t maneuver his legs to suit the var ious situations. Father Time holds the answer to Washington’s pre dictament. Meanwhile he contin testinal fortitude. Jersey City’s ues to employ the collegiate in entrant in the American Football League is clickin’! Archie Harris former All American wingman at Indiana is playing a major part in the success of Bill Owen’s club thanks to his knack of catching passes. We believe that the majority of Colored-American sports enterpri ses are missing the best, in pub licizing their events, by not using the radio in its advertising cam paigns. Tis a known fact that a steady radio advertising program plus the broadcasting of the games will bring results. When will the Negro sport moguls see the light. In these days of close copetition they are certainly mis sing a good bet. One need but to look at the success the Brooklyn Dodgers attained at the turnstiles to realize that the use of the mi crophone brings good results. We assure you that it was not alone the unpredictable wizardly that aided Branch Rickey’s amazing ball club. Radio played a major part in the success, with Red Barber and Desmond’s clever mike work attracting the doubt ful baseball bobbies to Ebbets’ Field, where anything is liable to happen and usually does.. Now it’s time to cease hitting this trusty typewriter and forecast next satdee’s football games. Gee1 I wish I knew which way that leather will bounce.

Well folks, so long until next week when we ll again bring you news from the alleys. Roscoe Knight, Mgr. AREYOU APART TIME CITIZEN By Ruth Taylor Being a citizen in a democracy is a full time job. In other forms of government, the citizenry make up the background. appearing only in mob scenes to “yes” the rulers of the nation. But there is no room for part time citizens in our form of gov ernment. Our government is us . . what we make it. Ours is the fault if the wheels of government do not run smoothly, for the laws we make are the roadbed and the men we elect are the machine. Are you a part time citizen ? Do you fulfill all your dutes as a voter.. do you just show up at election time to cast your vote j without due consideration of the full qualifications, record and prin ciples of all candidates.. or do you help to select proper candidates at the primaries? « Are you a part time citizen ? Do you obey the laws you have LOANS $10 TO $1,000 You can obtain a loan from us for almost any purpose and repay in small monthly payments. Salary loans on your signature only.

Larry Flinn, Manager had a hand in making; or is it your only thought when you do break what seems like an incon sequential little law, how you can get away with it? Are you a part time citizen? Do you evince interest in all is sues or only in those problems which directly concern you.. and then object when other groups do the same and infringe on your prerogatives ? Only as citizens work for the common good of all can democracy progress. Are you a part time citizen ? Do you lend an ear to alien sub versive elements who tell you how much better conditions are or would be for you were there a different form of government ? Do you thoughtlessly pass on these tales without checking on their accuracy or considering their source? Are you a part time citizen ? Do you stand up for democracy or do you condemn its mistakes without consideration for the good it has to offer? Do you see only Its Ihortcomings and never its long range program which slowly but surely and in spite of stum blings, discriminations and de i tours has made this country of ours the best in which we live. I Now as never before the United I States needs the full time alle i giance of all its people. Peace can be established only by the con certed effort of ALL citizens. So don’t be a part time citizen! ----- AIR SERVICE TO HAVANA NEW ORLEANS, La.-(Global) A preview of the new air passen ger service between New Orleans and Havana by Chicago and Sou thern was flown two weeks ago and beginning November 1, the line will start regular service be tween the two points.
