Who Wins
Tonight. ..
WO PICTURES come to our mind
when we think of the Boxing
Show tonight in the Yost Field House for the
benefit of the Boys Fresh Air Camp.
The first: five or six grimy faced little boys
sitting on the curb of a dirty, crowded slum
street in the hot summer sun. They play ball,
an auto comes speeding down the street, jams
on its brakes, squealing. The frightened little
fellow has escaped. Life in the street goes on-
the noise, the filth, the closeness of the atmo-
sphere.
The second: the same youngsters diving off a
board into the cool water of Patterson Lake.
Overhead is a clear blue sky, The air is keen
and the green that spreads out over the land
stands in sharp contrast to the cramped streets
of the city. Taking part in the leadership and
activity are college men, bringing health, good
citizenship, and an even chance for happiness.
Tonight you can assure the realization of the
second scene by attending the Boxing Show in
Yost Field House. The money is needed, the
cause is admirable, the benefit program is worth
while. Give it your support.
I THE OFORUMJ
'Jim Crow',: By A Negro
To the Editor:
I agree with the author of "Negroes: By a
Southerner" when he says: "There are always
people who are trying to start trouble. The
Negro question is usually a very good opening."
Like him, I brand anyone who stirs up the
hornet's nest of racial prejudice as a contemp-
tible little "trouble maker." I fake sharp issue
with him, however, when he identifies the
trouble maker as one who is merely taking legal
action to protect the rights which the law has
already conferred upon him. Instead, it appears
to me, that the individual, group, or corporation
that would unlawfully deny any citizen such
rights is the maker of trouble.
I need not rehearse the immediate cause for
the discussion, of which this letter and its prede-
cessor are but a part. The action which the
Negro student, William Bell, has taken is but
indicative of the courage and intelligence which
he is displaying in securing the rights of which
Northwestern University would deprive him-a
courage and intelligence which some of his op-
ponents would do well to emulate. Incidentally,
it is a courage and intelligence that men like
W.B.O. dislike to see in a Negro; it makes them
doubt their own vaunted claims of inherent su-
periority.
It is not my present purpose, however, to
launch into an emotional appeal for the rights
of the Negro. Being a Negro myself, I naturally
have some very positive opinions on the subject
-opinions which I am quite zealous to defend
as this sarhe W.B.O. is his. Instead, I shall ex-
amine in the light of reason each of the asser-
tions which he makes in his brief to prove that
the Daily Northwestern was "out of order" for
declaring "that the fight for Negro rights is
the fight of every person who believes in democ-
racy and freedom." As I see them, such issues
as he has been able to produce resolve themselves
into the following statements:
1. That William Bell is a trouble maker,
for he is legally seeking that which is law-
fully his;
2.- That the Negro population of Chicago
has become more and more a problem;
3. That the Negro in the South knows his
place and is satisfied to stay in it;
4. That with "two or three exceptions
the Negroes are more than satisfied to live
by themselves and have their own places
of musemnent."
Any one who read W.B.O.'s article in the Sat-
urday issue of The Daily will, I believe, admit
that almost no evidence was offered in support
of these four contentions. In as much, then,
as the previous writer forgot to insert his evi-
dence, I shall look briefly into his unsupported
assertions to see to what extent they are true.
In the first place, I take it that Mr. Bell
is a citizen of the United States, and at least a
temporary resident of Illinois. As such, he is en-
titled to all the protection that the state and
nation can afford, including "life, liberty, and
the pursuit of happiness." In the second place,
there is no law on the Illinois statute books
which denies to a Negro the right to swim off a
beach operated by an institution of which he is
a part, if he so chooses. When Northwestern
University, or any other corporation, undertakes
to abridge the rights of an individual as pre-
scribed by the laws of the state, it, not the
Negro, is the trouble maker.
The second question, whether or not the Negro
population of Chicago is become more and more
a problem, is debatable. The answer hinges
around what W.B.O. means by "a problem." If
he means that the Chicago Negroes are becoming
more numerous, more resentful .of encroach-
ments upon their legal rights, and more con-
scious of their political power to preserve these
rights T m inclined tn aree with him most

THE B.M.O.C. BLUE BOOK is a reality, as
rumored in this column earlier in the week
and as a whole lot of people will find out when
I it is put on sale Friday. I received a preview
of the edition last night. It's .different folks, it's
different.
This 1937 effort brings to memory the work
which that august scholar and campus politician,
Peko Bursley, produced with the help of other
notables in the class of '34, when the authors
decided to take a little trip east for a few days
while the Campus got over their bitterness.
The new volume is an improvement over the
old in that it is graced by the names of more
than 150 juniors and seniors, male and female
-which means that there will be 30 more pairs
of willing hands than four years ago available
to maul the perpetrators of the deed, when and
if they are caught.
The blurbs are short and expressive with little
effort made to be anything but frankly critical.
Most of the results are fair enough, though some
are obviously overdone. 30-40 odd cuts, smack-
ing strongly of the 'Ensian, have been used in
an effort to liven up the layout, and the ad-
vertising, although not comparable with the
amount sold in 1934, is still enough to give
IBusiness Manager John Park a severe attack of
nausea.
The fiends behind the deed confided to me
that they have printed 1,000 copies. I think
they're crazy. If Gil Tilles can sell 3,000 copies
of his rag in a single day, a third of that
number of these super sophisticated silly sheets
should be snapped up by the gossip crazy campus
in half an hour.

tag from this column ...
often have I heard this statement from the
throats of Southern solons and from the pages
of the less enlightened newspapers! What is pa-
thetic is that those who say it are trying hard
to convince themselves that they believe it.
Yes, it is true that the South' has erected bar-
riers against its darker zone. It makes them
pay first class passage to ride in railway
"coaches" that are the size of pill boxes; it
wrings taxes from their pockets to operate
schools, libraries, and parks that they dare not
enter; it lynches Negro degenerates who are
accused of the "greatest crime" without even
punishing white degenerates who are similarly
guilty against darker women; its senators and
governors, in some states, run for office or
platforms, which, when boiled down, amount to
little more than "Down with the Negro!" Yes,
the Negro knows "his place" in the South, but he
is not satisfied with it. He accepts it, as the 'Jew
does in Nazi Germany, because it is immediately
expedient for him to do so. He fights against
the status quo when he is able to do so, but,
usually, in the same way in which William Bell
is proceeding-by due process of law.
The last "point" which W.B.O. submits-
that with "two or three exceptions" the Negroes
are more than satisfied to live by, themselves
and have their own places of amusement-is
not very clear. Just what, I ask, are these "two
or three exceptions"? Conceivably, the whole
argument rests upon his interpretation of these
"two or three exceptions." For instance, it is true
that Negroes, like all racial groups, have a ten-
dency to herd together. They enjoy the com-
pany of their own kind. They most emphatically
prefer to marry their own kind. On the other
hand, however, they will fight to the bitter end
any attempt to establish a public policy which
would deny them the exercise of all functions
which are guaranteed them by law.
I trust that my position is clear. The Negro in
the South is not satisfied; but, unlike W.B.O.
and his kind, he is not planning to break the
law to obtain his satisfaction. In the South,

N UNDERTAKING the production
of King Henry the Eighth, a chron-
icle history long attributed to Shake-
speare, but probably by Fletcher and
Massinger, Professor Windt and -his
associates could anticipate the benev-
olent good wishes and grave mis-
givings of all loving students of our
earlier drama. It is no secret that
the play makes singularly unimpres-
sive reading; and in spite of its long,
if interrupted, stage-history, per-
formances have not always gained
either critical or popular approval.
After the famous production of 1664,
by a cast that included such notabil-
ities as Betterton, Harris, Smith, and
Mrs. Betterton, Pepys was con-
strained to describe the play as "so
simple a thing made up of a great
many patches, that besides the shows
and procession in it, there is nothing
in the world good or well done." At
the other end of the years, Beerbohm
Tree's costly Tercentenary produc-
tion of 1916 called forth as much
criticism and frank boredom as
praise. It is' pleasant to record last
evening's performance, representing
Play Production's most ambitious ef-
fort of this season, as a most welcome
and stimulating success.

had to be carried up sixteen floors because of a

the secret protection of the international bank-

to destroy law and order in his desperate effort
to become the next President of the United

This picture is an excursion into
the realm of fantasy done with the
aid of colossal camera tricks. Butl
the trick photography is an instru-
ment for building up a very serious
commentary on this whole wide world
of ours. The story gives a remark-
able portrayal of how little men
act when faced with really big af-
fairs.
Mr. George Farthingway, just a
very ordinary sort of a man, is
suddenly endowed with the power
to do anything he wants except to
change human nature. This Milque-
toast of man is overwhelmed at first
with his miraculous faculties and
goes about seeking advice from a
variety of persons. His employer
would have him use his powers
for building a gigantic business mo-
nopoly. An idealistic. clergyman
would have him give to everyone
complete prosperity. Others argue
that society cannot exist without
needs-what would happen to our
credit system, our businesses? The

institution, this procedure has been
based on instructions from the pol-
icyholder. If such a policyholder
withdraws from the institution, he, of
course, becomes responsible for the
payment of future premiums. If he
goes to another educational institu-
tion, it is suggested that he make in-
quiry as to whether or not the new
employer will, on his authority, de-
duct premiums and transmit them to
the Association. Most institutions,
particularly those remitting annuity
premiums, are willing to make de-
ductions from salary payments
monthly for life insurance premiums.
If the employer will do this, instruc-
tions should be given by the policy-
holder to the institution in writing.
