"Fve smoked LUCKIES for three years. Fve tried
almost every other brand and found that LUCKIES
are truly the only cigarettes that do not hurt my throat.
Talking pictures make it even more important for an

Sidney Fox is just a fraction of an

has smoked LUCKIES three years.
She's not only been kind to her
throat, but also kind to the

litical battles with a united front, is

New York State will cast 94 votes
when the balloting for a presidential
nominee begins in Chicago, and 48 of
these delegates will be from New York
City.
Normally Tammany controls most
of these 48, but political observers

FOUR NAMED IN ATHEISM CLAIM
LUBBOCK, Feb. 11.—Four mem-
bers of the Texas Technological col-
lege faculty were designated Wed-
nesday by Rev. R. C. Campbell, Bap-
tist pastor, as being “guilty of teach-
ing atheism and infidelity to students.”
One was a department head.
In a secret conference with Presi-
dent Paul W. Horn, the pastor reit-
erated the accusations he had made
from his pulpit. Names of the pro1
fessors involved were withheld until
President Horn could investigate the
charges.
“Rev. Campbell made certain state-
ments and named certain professors
as guilty of the chai’ges he made,”
President Horn said after the confer-
ence. “We have both agreed to with-
hold the names for the present. A
joint statement will be issued soon.”
President Horn said his proposed
investigation would include hearings
with students and the accused pro-
fessors.
majority of this bloc on the first bal
lot.
Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt has
aroused the ire of many Tammany
leaders by not squelching the Hof-
stadter legislative committee investi-
gation into the Tammany municipal
government. Nevertheless, he has a
sizable following in the organization.
His campaign manager, James A.
Farley, chairman of the Democratic
state committee, is a Tammany man
and has his own supporters within
the organization.
John F. Curry, Tammany leader, is
a personal friend of the Governor, but
he has not an organized bloc. So far
not a Tammany chieftain has publicly
commented upon the 1928 standard
bearer’s announcement he would run
again if nominated.
Smith three years ago opposed Cur-
ry’s election as successor to Judge
George W. Olvany, Tammany leader.
The third bloc is the one which
swears allegiance to Mayor James J.
Walker.
The mayor looms large on the Tam-
many horizon. He heads an army of
130,000 city employes and controls ex-
tensive Tammany patronage. He will
have much to say about which presi-
dential aspirant is to get a large per-
centage of New York City’s votes in
the convention.
Walker and Roosevelt have been at
swords’ points since investigation of
the Walker government began. Some
indication of the feeling between them
was seen in the mayor’s failure to
greet the Governor as he filed past
him at the funeral of John R. Voorhis,
Tammany grand sachem, Monday.
Likewise, it is not secret that Wal-
ker and Smith are no longer close po-
litical friends. An intimate acquaint-
ance of the mayor said the only thing
Smith and Walker have had in com-
mon recently has been their mutual
desire to keep Roosevelt from “sew-
ing up” the nomination before the
convention.

protests were to no avail.
Thurmond, a resident of Danville
and a senior in the college, will be
permitted to remain in school and no
further disciplinary action is plan-
ned. In a statement he said there
was no one in college “who is stricter
in his personal morals than I am,”
and stated, “I do not practice what
is expressed as a possible solution to
unsatisfactory marriage.” He said he
had previously announced in the Cento
he would present his views on mar-
riage in a later issue, and that no at-
tempt was made to stop him.

COLLEGE EDITOR FIRED
FOR WRITING ON THE ‘STU-
PIDITY OF MARRIAGE’
DANVILLE, Ky., Feb. 10.—Charles
Thurmond’s views on matrimony,
which were published under the cap-
tion, “Stupidity of Marriage,” have
cost him his job as editor of the Cento,
student publication at Centre College.
The February 5 issue of the weekly
paper overnight became much in de-
mand and the office was swamped for
requests 'for extra copies. In his edi-
torial, entitled “Stupidity of Mar-
riage,” he wrote that marriage “ends
in wrecked lives and the casting of
ugly blemishes on young lives having
to come in contact with it.”
His editorial concluded -with a sug-
gestion that “if a boy and girl are
attracted; on a purely physical basis,
they may live together so long as the
physical attraction lasts, and, when
it fades, let them no longer torture
each other by being forced to pre-
tend happiness together.”
At a meeting of the college dis-
cipline committee called Tuesday by
Dr. Charles J. Turck, president of the
college, Thurmond was ousted as edi-
tor. The paper’s staff named Larry
Woboril to succeed him. Thurmond’s
supporters claimed the storm was
RED RIVER BRIDGE
APPEAL IS DROPPED
AUSTIN, Feb. 10.—Judge W. F.
Robertson of Travis County District
Court announced Wednesday that the
Red River Bridge Company had with-
drawn its appeal from the unfavor-
able verdict in its suit to collect $165,-
000 damages from the Texas High-
way Department.
The company sought a judgment in
connection with the construction by
Texas and Oklahoma of a free pas-
sage over Red River, connecting Deni-
son and Durant, Okla., paralleling a

It was claimed that the Texas com-
mission entered into a series of con-
tracts designed to reimburse the com-
pany for claimed losses and to pur-
chase the toll bridge.
