Negro Alderman A. B. Whitlock did not insinuate that Ku Klux Klannism lay behind the Emerson strike. Instead, he firmly said: "This [appropriation] is a useless expenditure of the taxpayers' money. We have plenty of room now for all the schoolchildren of Gary. This money [$15,000] wouldn't equip a shack, and the site you propose is in a wilderness. There are no streets, no sewers, no facilities there...
...plays the part of an untraditional heroine; a faithless woman; harder, colder this time than her Iris March of The Green Hat. She is one of the few great players in the land who will risk what is known as the sympathy of the spectators by playing women they wouldn't want around the house.

Why not write up some of the good fights ? How about the races? Maybe they wouldn't admit it but I bet you most of your readers would sooner bet on a horse race than watch a fat lot of old ladies "bowl on the green." Oh, Percival! Oh, Clarence! When TIME left out such things it was laying down, just like they...
