Big Blue Contest
Trojans Team
PETERSBURG, Va. — When is almost a cinch to see action in
Coach James Roland’s Bluefield
aggregation move in here Friday
night for their game with the Va.
State Trojans on Saturday, Oct.
5; they will iind the Trojan camp
t pretty well primed for the bat
tle.. The Roland coached machine
will' be making the first foi-mal
protest against the Troian’s bid
for a third term as CIAA foot
ball champions.
After three days of strenuous
scrimmage during the first of the
week. Coach Jefferson and assis
tants Moore and Vordell
tapering the Trojan machine
down to a fine point. Althougn
chere hasn’t been much teution
evident in the student body over
the opener with Bluefield, there
has been unusual interest thi»
week in practice sessions of the
squad. Although the question as
tw whether or not the TroJans
can successfully defend their
crown for a third time is a de
batable issue on the campus, vhe
odds have been shifting in favor
of thg local team with the dii-
covery of several good prospects
in the freshman squad.
Edward Bolden, 155 pound haU
back from Montgomery, W. Va.,
the Bluefield game. His ball jai-
rying against Petersburg Peabody
high school school last week was
one of the highlights of the game.
Other additions to the Trojan
camp of 1940 who probably will
see action Saturday against Blue
field are Goorg^ Freeman, a six
foot half back weighing 185 lbs.,
from White Plans, N. Y.; Leroy
McAllister, a recruit from Arm
strong high school in Richmond,
who is working hard at the guard
post, and Victor Kerr, a Boston jneed to be alone. Yes, you mtiy
lad, «tanding over six feet
at the agencies and you will get
work sooner.
'HUM—This boy I am going
with says he want* us to get
married as aoon asi I finish school
and I want to know if I should
or not?
Ans: Well. . . there is no need
of worrying your brain about it
now . . . for you have eight more
months; of school. I do think that
you should take into considera
tion that you might not marry
him and not allow hinr too much
of your time for he is inclined
to talk of marriage in order to
get his way. Don’t be fooled by
him.
j JIB—I have been in business
for 3 years and no one eveir made
the flop that T have. Is there
anything that I could do to make
enough to eat?
Ans: Get out of the tailoring
business before you starve to
dnath. Try to sell your equip
ment. It is my 8Ugge»tion that
you take a course in barbering
if vou want to run your own
little business . . . you certninly
would make more at this than
you have made tailoring.
EJ—Aliswer m,e ple»«e and
tell mg if it would be wi«e for
my husband and I to start hou^ie-
keeping. Can I get my Astrology
Reading now?
Ans: I certainly do advise that
you go back to housekeeping
for you can’t be happy long at a
time living as you are now. You
fast for
but he is falling
other s:al,
HBX—College isn’t what I
thought it would be. Tell me if I
can expect a change and will i
ever feel at* home.?
Ans: Oh yes. As soon as you
become accustomed to it yo»
will feel differently. It is ny
suggestion that you take an act've
inl.erest in all sports there at
school. You are smart enough to
devote your spare time to sports,
and it won’t interfere with your
studies. The majority of girls
feel the .same as you do, but chty
buckl,, down to work and don’t
worry.
A A—Tell me if*l would do
good in njy Stnd of Business in
this particular location?
Ans: Yes — but not as good
as you have done elsewhere ’n
the past. Try it for a f«w months
anyway.
Frank Habue, chief supportijr of
President Roosevelt for a thud
term, does not want to recognize
Joe Louis as heavyweight boxing
eliampion Oj. the w^ld.
So Thursday night he sc»ged
“A Bout for the World’s WHITE
Heavyweight Championship” lieve
between Maxie Baer and Pat Co-
miskey.
The fight was built up here by
**its promoters, backed by Hague
and the publicity for the fight
ti-rs.
The fight itself was held n
Uoosevelt Stadium. Roosevelt
Stadium was named after Fi'isi-
dcBt Roosevelt when lP was uodi-
oated by Hague with Roo.sovelt
ou haiWl during the 1‘936 Presi
dential election.
Hague and the Democratic P»»r-
ty ill New Jersey brought Joe
Louis here in 193'6 to speak ai a
Democratic rally and then Uiu'^n-
ed at him because he did not
make a brilliant talk. His talk
frequently repeated the their.Oiactually was a neutral one.
thati it was a WHITE champion-] Hague’s Negro leader here is
ship only. Robert S. Hartgrove, an a.tor-
Jack Dempsey was the re!eri;e
and Jack Kearns managed +he
fight, but these known boxing
figures had nothing to do witu
the race angle which was of pure
Jersey City origin.
That the fight was publicized
this fashion was verified last
week when the fight headquarters
at Journal Squar^ admitted it was
for the “White Championship.”
“Yes, that is true” was the
answer given ab fight headqi’ar-
weighing 191 pounds and out for
an end position.
Subject to change, the Virginia
State Trojan line-up for the

Burney and Coppin Cartwright
at ends; C'aptain Don Harris and
Theo. McCain at the tackle po.sts;
William -Bennett and Charlie
Williams at guard; Fred Kersey
at center; Willie Hurst and Ken

and Bob Glasker at the full back

full name, correct birthdate and
address and I will send same, also

BJT—This man promised to
get a coat before the cold
weather and I want to know
whether to depend on him or not?
Ans: If you get a coat sister—
you will 'have to buy it. This man
is going to put you off indefini
tely. I suggest that you get your
old coat out and fix it up u bit
to begin the season with. It will
bo Xmas before you can buy one.
