MUNICIPAL COLLEGE WHIPS LINCOLN The purpled jerseyed warriors of Louisville Municipal College flashed a perplexing offensive good enough for three touchdowns and victory over an aggressive Lincln U. of Mo., team who were able to push over 2 touchdowns. The game was played under ideal weather conditions before a small crowd. The Muni boys entered the game determined to whip the "show me" boys and thru vicious tackling and alert play converted a Lincoln fumble into a touchdown shortly after the opening gong. Pleasant, the hard plunging full back, pushed the ball over from three yards back. The Lincoln boys opened up their passing attack directly after the kick off and [illegible] evened he score with a pass from Starks to Anderson for a touchdown.

CLARK JEFFERSON ARRESTED FOR SHOOTING
DEMOCRATIC POLITICAL LEADER GIVES UP FOLLOWING WARRANTS SWORN TO BY TWO ADHERENTS G. Clark Jefferson, owner of Jefferson Park and for many years a prominent Democratic political leader, and his chauffeur, Will "Twin" Owsley, were arrested last week on warrants sworn to by Raymond Daniels and Edward Haycraft, Democratic adherents, who charged Jefferson with shooting with intent to kill and with malicious assault, and Owsley with pointing a pistol. It is said that the trouble started at Memorial Auditorium when Mr. Jefferson was accosted about the carrying of a banner and that when Jefferson struck Haycraft, Daniels got into the affair on the side of Haycraft. Later, it is said that Jefferson and his chauffeur met Daniels and Haycraft at Seventh and Walnut and there the trouble started again, which resulted in the shooting. Jefferson and his chauffeur immediately went to police headquarters and gave themselves in and were released later on bond. When their cases were called in Police Court they were passed until November 8.
WILBERFORCE WINS OVER TUSKEGEE The big Green Wave of Wilberforce downed the Crimson Tornado of Tuskegee 13-0 and placed themselves back in the running for national honors. The game was staged in Chicago as the classic of the year. Both teams produced long runs but few scoring threats. Wilberforce scores resulted when a pass was batted into a 'Forcean receiver after an attempt had been made to thwart completion. The receiver, Rains, ran the remaining distance for a touchdown. 'Force's second score came in the third quarter after Vann Jenkins eluded all would be tacklers and galloped 65 yards for a touchdown. Jack Knight, a "Kegie" back, threw a scare into 'Forcean fans when he ran 65 yards to "Force's" 1 yard line where he was forced out of bounds. A strong forcean defensive stopped the men of Abbott, however. 'Force's next big opponent is L. M. C. this Friday. The locals entertain high hopes of doing damage to the 'Force boys in their back yard.

YOUTH FINED FOR TAKING DAILY Worthington Taylor, a 17 year old boy who lives at 1920 W. Walnut St. was fined $20 in Police Court Monday for taking newspapers from subscribers of the Courier Journal. Taylor and another boy, Leonard Buchman, 529 Armory Place, were both arrested Sunday at Sixth and Broadway, and the latter claimed that Taylor took papers from in front of homes near Sixth and Breckenridge Streets. The Taylor boy was charged with disorderly conduct and the charge against Buchanon was filed away. It was reported by the arresting officers that residents of the neighborhood had made many complaints about newspapers being stolen. Whether the boys took the papers to read them or to sell them was something to think about. In either case the youngsters couldn't do much worse by plying their trade one of the race papers.

It is just as much impossible for a white man to properly interpret the hopes and latent aspirations of the colored man as it is for the colored man to understand the hopes and aspirations of the white man.

There is no laudable reason why he should not be elected at this very critical time, when efforts are being made to alienate and destroy the cordial and patriotic relation which the Negro sustains in his "home and native land." When it comes to true devotion and loyalty to his country, the Negro has no superior, and a very few equals as a race. It is a paradox that the people who (Continued on page 3)
