Alcorn Rolls
Over Rust
College 29-6
HOLLY SPRINGS — The
Alcorn A. & M. College Brave
piloted by senior quarterback
Fred Davis breezed to a 29-6
victory over the Rust College
Bearcats Saturday afternoon
in a non-conference game.
The Braves scored early in
the second quarter when Ma
lachi McGruder raced 31 yards
around right end for a touch
down. McGruder also kicked
the extra point.
Fred Davis performed his
usual work horse role. He en
gineered two touchdown driv
es and passed to junior half
back Richard Pickens for two
touchdowns. Pickens also ran
15 yards for a TD.
The Bearcats’ lone score
came late in the fourtli quar
ter when Willie Fullilove ran
30 yards up the center for a
TD.
It was obvious during the
game that the Alcorn Braves
were preoarine for their rn
counter with the Jackson State
College Tigers Saturday night,
October 12 at Alumni Field in
Jackson. The Jackson - Alcorn
game is one fo the greatest
rivalries in football. The Al
corn Braves are determined to
defeat the Tigers who were
vicotrs in last year’s contest.
The Braves have a well-bal
anced team and one of the
best quarterbacks in the
Southwest Conference. The
Tigers will be out to deal the
Braves another defeat this
year. The Jackson - Alcorn
game should be a thriller.
Business On Parade .
(Continued from page 1)
near Grenada; during the era
of the C. C. C. Camps, Paris
Cleaners trucks delivered
enough business into Jackson
to not only keep that plant
operating on a ‘round-the
clock schedule, but to keep
two other Negro Cleaners in
this city busy day and night.
During this time, Paris Clean
ers also serviced Camp Shel
by near Hattiesburg, Miss.
From a most humble be
ginning, Mr. Williams has
built his business to the ex
tent that at present he has
a plant worth thousands of
dollars ... he does a gross
business of thousands of dol
lars; he has a working staff of
more than thirty persons
all receiving salaries in keep
ing with those paid by other
similar establishments; he has
five pick-up trucks that serv
ice Jackson and adjoining
counties. . .
PARIS CLEANERS No. 1
and 2 offer a complete clean
ing and laundry service
No. 3 is a Pick-up Station for
the North Central section of
our city . . . PARIS CLEAN
ERS also offers an expert Al
teration and Hat Blocking
Service; an expert Spotting
and Cleaning Department; a
Shirt service that completely
finishes 60 shirts an hour; a
Storage department for both
winter and summer.
As most of the businesses in
Jackson. PARIS CLEANERS
is also a family affair . . . Mr.
Williams gives much credit for
his growth and continued
progress to his wife, Mrs.
ELEASE PACE WILLIAMS^
wno completely manages the
No. 1 Location; to Miss AG
PACE, a sister-in-law;
Mis. JESSIE MAE CROWS
LEY, his daughter; Mrs. LU
BURRELL, a cousin
Mr. EDWARD WELLS, a valu
ed friend who has charge of
Lie cleaning department. At
testing to his general ability
as a boss is the large num
ber of employees who nave
been with the business over
a period of many years. . .
During the years, PARIS
CLEANERS has given assist
ance and training to hundreds
of boys and girls, including
students connected with the
Diversified Occupation Pro
gram of the city's High
schools and students from the
Mississippi School for the
Deaf who have shown an in
terest in his particular trade.
Highly conscious of his com
munity obligations, Mr. Wil
liams .ias not only given gen
erously to many of the local
charities, but has for a num
ber of years, sponsored a
CITY-WIDE EASTER EGG
HUNT, providing free trans
portation and free eggs for
hundreds, many being under
privileged children who had
very little other planned or
supervised recreation during
the year . . . Again we say .
. . Because PARIS CLEAN
ERS exemplifies the type of
competitive business that Neg
roes must own and operate as
we prepare for First Class
Citizens. WE SALUTE THIS
BUSINESS AND ON BEHALF
OF ITS OWNER, invite you
to use its SERVICES more
and more. . .
