You’ve got to have years, Timss, a newspaper at San Angelo, comck forth with the headline: "Bob cats Ready to Play Chicago Bears for National Football Championship.” Must be the Texas climate. They sure do things on a grand scale. • • Speaking of the sport situation in Camden. The fans are being offered some' fine indoor sport at the High school gymnasium by the Southern Airways cage team. They have dub bed this team "The Flying Professors” and the coach.is none other than All- American Captain Joe Riley. The team plays a fine brand of ball and under the tutelage of Riley will make the best of them hustle to, win. Camden has had basketball in the past—good basketbsit—when th'e High gifts team was outstanding in this midsouth area. But the sport fans' were apathetic. We hope that the fine program mapped out by George Stuart and Joe Riley will get the co- the stands filled with yelling, cheer ing rooters to put the p«p'In- thf pepper. So this corner urges th« Camden sport fans to turn out for the Southern Airways games. You’ll be sorry if you miss them. • And incidentally don’t forget that the High school alsp has basketball games on tap. - • • • • Bean Jack, the Augusta, Ga., negro, who holds a questionable lightweight boxing title, came close to losing the decision in his battle with Lulu Costantino Friday night In Mike Jacob’s Madison Square Garden. Had It not been for two amateur judges who gave the nod to Jack, Costantino would-v-bave won. ReTefee ilddTi^ Jo sephs who handled the bout, and who has forgotten more about boxing than the judgee ever knew, gave Lulu eight rounds and Jack two. The de cision In this bout has the same un pleasant odor that features some of Mike Jacob’s shows. -• Rugar.*'■ Book 4. stamp 29, S pounds, expires January 15. • Gasoline: Coupon No. 8 In A book good for three gallons, expires Feb. 8.

Owing to the libel laws. I will not attempt to express my opinion' of Postmaster Gen. Walker’s Hitlerlatlc order In the Esquire case. I am not holding a brief for Esquire, but rather for the right of the American people to pick their own reading matter so long as it stays within the bounds of decency. Walker’s hand picked board held that Esquire did. t also under stand that be contends that Esquire kept sex before its readers. What Is next on the ration list?
