A. A. C. P. — James W. Johnson Spokesman Children Carry Placards A delegation at Trenton Monday requested Governor Moore to remove Edgar M. Fink, supervising principal of schools of Toms River, from office. Three little Negro boys held placards during the hearing reading: "I am a victim of race prejudice in Toms River, Governor. Mr. Fink never liked us because we are colored." Urging that Negro school children and teachers become an integral part of the State's education system, and the appointment of a Negro Assistant Commissioner of Education, James Weldon Johnson of New York, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, acted as spokesman for the delegation. He said Mr. Fink had no place in the public school system of an enlightened State. He told the Governor segregation denies the common citizenship, the spirit of American life, as it worked out inferior accommodation and equipment for children. Gov. Moore assured the delegation the State does not stand for discrimination. He said the only remedy was through the law, as he had no power to dismiss Principal Fink. The Governor pointed out that Negroes could have segregation settled finally had the Simpson bills, prohibiting segregation, passed the Legislature. The measures made it a misdeameanor and carried penalties. Commissioner John H. Logan of the State Board of Education had written to the Governor that he could not comment on the situation because he probably would be called on finally to settle the issue. He advised the delegation to await the Supreme Court's action or file an appeal with the State Board against the ousting of the children from the Toms Rivers school. As to the appointment of a Negro to the State Board of Education, the Governor said after the meeting he has been petitioned by members of numerous races for representation on that body. To grant all such requests would be impossible, he asserted. 24 PAGES FIVE CENTS PER COPY EVERYWHERE Complete in 3 Sections Entered as second-class matter Dec. 31.

Harris chased Mitchell several hundred feet and the boy ran into a restaurant at 2170 Seventh avenue and back into the kitchen. Harris pursued and while in the rear of the restaurant heat the boy unmercifully and fired a shot at him. The bullet missed its mark and whizzed past several persons in the restaurant and crashed through the big-plate-glass window. Women swarmed and men yelled.

The alleged attack occurred Feb. 11, according to the testimony of Dawson's 16-year-old daughter, the complainant, who was apprehended by the police after running away from home. At Monday's hearing, John R. MacNeal, president of the John R. MacNeal Club, formerly at 2348 Seventh avenue, testified that on the night and at the hour of the alleged attack Dawson was with him at the club and did not return home until over two hours later. MacNeal testified strongly to Dawson's good character. Dewson was in possession of letters from his mother, Mrs. Louise Anderson, and from Mrs. Essele Thompson, the girl's mother, both in the West Indies. These letters tell of the child's waryness and propensity to run away from home because of her unwillingness to attend school. According to Dawson, on March 7 he gave the girl a blank check with his signature, drawn on the Empire Bank, instructing the girl to fill in the amount of $100. She drew out $300, he said, and ran away from home. He notified the police, who caught her and, according to Dawson, she brought the rape charge against him in spirit of malicious revenge. Dawson pleaded not guilty and was released on ball.

TELLS OF CATHOLIC INSTITUTION U. S. Senator David I. Walsh Principal Speaker at Meeting U. S. Senator David I. Walsh Principal Speaker at Meeting Tells What Cardinal Gibbons Institute in Maryland Means to \advancement of Negroes in America David I. Walsh, U. S. Senator from Massachusetts and former governor of that State, was the principal speaker at a mass meeting in interest of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute in Maryland at Public School No. 90 Sunday afternoon. Fred R. Moore, editor of the New York Age, was the presiding officer. Other speakers on the program were: Dr. E. P. Roberts, Prof. E. A. Clarke, Assistant Superintendent of Schools in Washington, D. C. A. C. Monohan, executive secretary of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute, and Father John La Farge, editor of America. ter the stabbing a fortnight ago, pieces of the blade of the scissors having remained imbedded in his back. He said surgeons extricated the pieces of the scissors at the hospital. Greene denied the stabbing. De Victor H. Daniel, principal of the institute, previously connected with Taskeen Institute and Borden-town Manual Training School, gave an illustrated talk, showing slides of various scenes around the school grounds and in the neighborhood. His aim was to show the need for modern standards and improvements in the rural homes and on the terms and how the Cardinal ribbon institute was operating to bring about these changes. Senator Walsh, a trustee of the institute, has a notable record of public service, according to Mr. Monahan, who introduced him. He was elected to the Senate by the largest majority by which any candidate has been elected to a Federal office from Massachusetts, and in a year in which every other one elected was of a different party. He was given a vigorous applause by the 500 or more who attended the meeting. "It is the first school," the Senator declared, "started by colored people of the Catholic faith, or any faith, as far as I know, which intends to improve the people by its own standards, by members of that race, and with their own money." "It there were fifty such schools scattered throughout the country," he further asserted, "the Negro problem would be solved in twenty-five years." "No race has ever done anything unless it has first developed leaders," he said, in pointing out that the aim of the institution was to train young men and women to lead. Located in Maryland, the first place in America to welcome religious tolerance, it has its best chance of giving hope, cheer and sunshine to millions of people in America of the colored race." The other speakers pointed out that, while the Cardinal Gibbons institute was started and is being run by Catholics, it opens its doors to members of all creeds. Nor does it intend to limit its scope to Maryland alone. One speaker called it a "national institution in which young men and women will be instilled with the spirit of Christ." The plea for contributions was responded to by several for $25 and a large number for lesser amounts.

He said surgeons extricated the pieces of the scissors at the hospital. Greene denied the stabbing. Detective Brown of the East 104th street station, who arrested Greene, said that the latter had admitted to him that he stabbed Alexander, but had insisted that he did it in self-defense when Alexander attacked him because he objected to insulting remarks made to the unknown girl at the party. On the witness stand, Alexander admitted that he was "partly to blame" for the incident. He said that he did not actually see Greene with the scissors in his hand, but that Greene was the only one present with whom he had had an argument.

HURT BY MILK WAGON. Miss Ceelia Jennings, 23, 101 West 140th street, was partially run over by a Sheffield Farms milk wagon at 14th street and Lenox Avenue at 54th Sunday morning.

Some waiters and known New England hostelry have served Scores of the employees measure their people of Bos- hurbed over BOSTON, Mass., March 28. — With the closing of Young's Hotel May 1, 150 Negro men and women will be automatically thrown out of employment. Some waiters and maids at this well-known New England hostelry have served for a half-century. Scores of the employees measure their time in the decade. While many of the people of Boston are seemingly disturbed over this prospect of non-employment of so large a number of men who have practically spent their lives at Young's, the waiters and maids themselves are viewing the approaching situation philosophically. They confidently express the opinion that they will be well taken care of elsewhere. Many of them, it is said, have already been assured they will be taken on at the New Parker House, which is under the same management as Young's. The Parker House will open just about the time that Young's closes, according to a statement made by the management. DENIES HE IS A NUMBER COLLECTOR Charged with having policy slips in his possession, Elliot Brown, 24, 24 West 145th street, was released on $500 ball for further examination Thursday, when arraigned before Magistrate Renaud in Heights Court Thursday. Brown was arrested at No. 131 West 138th street by Officer Keevan of the Sixth division and admitted possession of the slips but denied being a "collector." The defendant, who pleaded not guilty, was arraigned March 17 on a similar charge. Then, too, some of the older employees are among the most substantial colored people in Boston. They have made good money during their years of service as waiters and maids. Most of them have saved and invested their earnings wisely. A number of them could live in comfort should they be forced to retire. Another hopeful sign pointed out by the employees is that a large many of the men have been building up substantial side line businesses during their spare time. They will not be seriously affected by the closure. Generally, the men of Young's Hotel have been thrifty, energetic and sympathetic. They have an organization among themselves, which pays disability benefits. Large donations have been contributed by them to the Home for Aged on Hancock street, the Plymouth Hospital and Saint Monica's Home. Among their rauks are big-hearted property-owning men. Some are: Stanley Hortex, head-waiter; George Jordan, Charles Sherer; Theodore Webb, Jr. Benjamin; Lewis Wood, Julius Reddick; Jesse Phinney, Caleb Sheathman, W. H. Smith, J. W. Snowden, P. M.

HIT BY CAB. Mrs. Roselee Thomas, 28, 2442 Eighth avenue, is said to have been run down by a taxi at 131st street and Eighth avenue at 5 o'clock Sunday evening. She refused medical aid when a Harlem Hospital ambulance arrived on the scene, it is said. The cab is said to have been driven by Albert T. Bryan, 251 West 122d street. "Heatless Landlords" Still Up in Court The fight of Harlem tenants for steam heat and hot water brought two more cases to Heights Court over the week-end. On complaint of Ophelia Diaz, 64 West, 144th street, Julus Rosen, white, 1142 College avenue, realtor, put up a cash ball of $200 in the Heights Court to Magistrate Rennaud, who told him that he should consider himself lucky to be released in such low ball. The case was adjourned for a hearing April 6. Rosen pleaded not guilty. Six tenants who appeared as complaining witnesses against Rose were Pearl Breen, Malinda Jackson, Leana Allen, Elizabeth Ford and Carlotta Armstrong, all tenants in the same flat.

The defendant identified the revolver as his property but pleaded not guilty to the charge.

Braithwaite, accompanied by Evelyn Rock, 2793 Eighth avenue, returned home and saw Martin "laying for him," he said. Fearing another attack he went out to call the police and Martin followed him and struck him on the left side of the head with two bricks, knocking him unconscious, with the result that he was taken again to Harlem Hospital, Braithwaite declared. Martin pleaded not guilty. Evelyn Rock appeared as a witness for Braithwaite. Trio Charged With Unlawful Entry Alexander Wilkis, 21; James Williams, 22, and Coyles Williams, 19, all of 329 West Fifty-ninth street, charged with unlawful entry, were arrested on suspicion by Officer Hudson of the Fourteenth Precinct, who apprehended the men entering the apartment of Salie Coleman, 362 West 122d street, who appeared as complainant against them when they were arraigned in Heights Court Thursday before Magistrate Renaud.

The defendants, who pleaded not guilty, gave their occupation as that of waiters. THREE GROCER TRIED TO The persistent effort to break through the fire lines in order to save some of the belongings in his home which had caught fire Sunday morning caused the arrest of Richard Turner, 50, grocer, 45 West 132d street. He was arraigned last week before Magistrate Douras in Heights Court on a charge of disorderly conduct and held in $1,000 bail for a further hearing. The police allege that Turner was intoxicated and attempted to use his fists. Patrolman Knowles of the West 135th street station placed Turner under arrest, and is alleged to have found a .38 calibre revolver in the prisoner's possession. An additional charge of violation of the Sullivan Law was then lodged against him. I don't know. THAT 4 o'clock hunger? It'll vanish sweetly...with 7-11. 7-11 The CANDY WINNER DAUERBACH & SONS, N.Y.

To win one of these valuable prizes is the one object firmly fixed in the minds of the candidates. It will not be long until some "live wire candidate" will be the winner of the first prize—a present from The Amsterdam News as a reward for the ability to hustle. Many other prizes will be forthcoming at the end of the race. Altogether a list of approximately S5,000 in prizes will be distributed absolutely FREE among the candidates who hustle the most—and the next week will practically decide who the big winners will be. Great Interest Is Shown The public mind is largely centered on the outcome of the race. Nearly every one has his or her favorite candidate, who is striving to bring honor to the many friends he or she represents, as well as gain a mammoth personal reward. In some cases the entire neighborhood seems to have arisen to the occasion, determined to see that their candidate comes out ahead. night, April 6. is positively the last minute of the BIG VOTES. One Important Week The winning votes can be secured between now and 12 o'clock Wednesday night. April 6, and this First Period will practically decide who the winner of the big prize will be. You can't "dilly daily" with such a valuable prize at stake—you must get busy in earnest and let It is no doubt natural, with such intense interest being shown in The Amsterdam News FREE Prize Race that the candidates and friends should attempt to discourage others by circulating rumors more ingenious than accurate. One hears all sorts of stories, but the tales that are heard are so highly embellished with frills, so utterly impossible that their untruthfulness is apparent. These exaggerated stories are deserving of no consideration, and the wise candidate is too busy getting votes to listen to them, let alone being influenced by these wild reports. Candidates Reporting Success Candidates are reporting that they are meeting with unusual success in inducing subscribers to extend their subscriptions to three, four and five years. These are the kind of subscriptions that count most in votes. This is a campanion where the best hustler wins—the contestant who secures the greatest number of votes wins the first prize—which is a Nash Special Six 240 worth $1,754. Just One Week Left Just one more week remains of the "First Period" BIG VOTES. If you want to make sure of winning—do everything possible in the way of securing subscriptions these IMPORTANT days. One $25 club of subscriptions will accomplish wonders. But you are not limited to one club—if you can get two, three or more—so much the better. Every $25 in subscriptions turned in gives you an EXTRA 100,000 votes in addition to the regular votes. Every $25 in subscriptions is worth from $37,000 to 1,055,000 votes. Right Now Is the Time From now until Wednesday night. April 6 is the time to dig in and gather in the votes by the thousands. KEMEMBER.

Abner Brown, assistant pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, Seventh avenue and 125th street, is going to resign. It is thought that he will return to his small flock of devout worshippers at Temple Baptist Church, last 125th street near Fifth avenue, where he was once the shepherd. It is the opinion of many Metropolitan members that the assistant pastor would not leave his father, the Rev. Mr. Brown, pastor of Metropolitan. According to Deacon Peter Thomas of Metropolitan no definite action has yet been decided Mother! Now Ye To Help Your I It's Your Duty to Aid Him to Grow Strong, Active and Sound in Body and Mind. That little boy or girl of yours— that doesn't weigh enough — that isn't strong—has no appetite— lacks vigor and is perhaps back- ward, listless and timid. What are you going to do with him? Have you ever heard of McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Compound Tablets— sugar coated and as easy for ailing children to take as candy? Every druggist in America sells them-60 tablets, 60 cents—and the supremely good combination of upbuilding agents surely does help the sickly, run-down, puny, frail little ones. upon, but he did not deny that a resignation is contemplated. The church officials would not issue a statement at this time. BOY, 17, DETAINED AS WAYWARD MINOR Leonard Jenkins. 17. 41 West 135th street, was detained in prison by Magistrate Simpson in Heights Court Monday on the charge of being a wayward minor. According to the boy's mother, Mrs. Susie Jenkins, Leonard has firmly refused to work and spends his time running around having a good time. He was held for further investigation, as it is Mrs. Jenkins' desire to have him put away. You Know How Puny, Weak Child No need to give him any more nasty Cod Liver Oil—McCoy's Tablets, rich in vitamins, are made to take the place of that good but evil smelling, stomach upsetting medicine, and they surely do. Try them as directed for 30 days, mother, and if at the end of that time you are not delighted with the improvement in your dear little one, get your money back. You can get them at any druggist and remember, too, they are fine for thin, run-down, underweight men and women who need more flesh, strength, vigor and vitality. Demand McCoy's—the original and genuine. RO-ZOL A FACE BLEACH THAT REALLY BLEACHES Another HIGH - BROWN Toilet, Preparation. Harmless, but surprisingly effective.

But we understand he is just getting started and will have some speed to show us before the Big Votes cud. Miss Ada Adams of 255 West 145th street is rapidly increasing her vote score. She is a consistent worker and is making an excellent showing. A number of votes have been received for the Rev. E. R. Arbist, 42 West Hays avenue, Corona. These votes came at a time when they counted most, so the minister's vote score is well boosted. Miss Suzie Mae Breathwaite, 269 St. James place, Brooklyn, is rapidly forcing ahead. She has a fine vote score, and we understand is preparing for even greater things before the "Big Votes" end. THE WEEKLY NEWS - Edna L. Haynes - Mrs. Edna Haynes of 263 West 120th street is one of the topliners this week. She is certainly stepping on the gas and going over the hill.

Any candidate having only 5,000 votes need not be discouraged as a few subscriptions will put him in the lead, and think of what it will mean to the winner. A Brand New Nash worth over $1,700. Is that worth hustling for? A nice lot of votes have been received for the Rev. H. L. Jones, and he bids fair to be one of the most formidable contestants in the Campaign. E. R.

Here and there, where the need has been felt to be acute, some individual plan has been worked out, as in the special schools. Except for its high schools, Newark's educational system never has had a general plan for pupils' lunches, and most of the schools are still without any provision. Here and there, where the need has been felt to be acute, some individual plan has been worked out, as in the special schools. One of the latest moves, though from outside of the schools, has been opening of a lunch room at Barclay and West Kinney streets for colored school children. Being in a congested district, this room serves the pupils from several school districts, Montgomery street, Monmouth street and Morton street. The lunch room has been made one of the activities of the Friendly Neighborhood House at the West Kinney street address. The institution is president; John C.

Polliness on each other and to those in charge is insisted upon, and a few suggestions from Mrs. Wright have zone far to tone down the mannerisms acquired in the long unsupervised hours on the street. The director of activities is Mrs. Stella B. Wright of 768 High street, who personally supervises the children's lunch. The neighborhood house work, as a whole, is the outcome of a study of conditions in that section made by a group including school principals and welfare workers under the leadership of the Welfare Federation of Newark. The director of the federation's council, Miss J. Isabelle Sims, who is especially interested in children's work from the welfare angle and also the viewpoint of the schools, as president of the Board of Education, worked with the group in making the study and organizing the plans. The children coming from the schools to the lunch room are, for the most part, youngsters whose mothers are employed who, before the neighborhood house opened, either went without lunch or bought unwholesome food from street stands.

Politeness to each other and to those in charge is insisted upon, and a few suggestions from Mrs. Wright have gone far to tone down the mannerisms acquired in the long unsupervised hours on the street. At the close of the school last June there were 5,200 colored children enrolled, and the number has been increased considerably since then. These children are suffering from many handicaps, says Mrs. Wright. Many are living in overcrowded houses. Some of the newcomers from the South begin their school careers here greatly retarded and there is considerable poverty and neglect. Broken-up homes have left a large number with only one parent, so that a double purpose is being made: the school is established noon meal. Welfare workers only seed the children, but get in closer touch with existing home conditions.

This act shall take effect immediately." The above bill, known officially as Assembly Bill No. 490, is to aid the N. A. A. C. P. in its work. It is intended to check the thinline velled gesture of the Klan in affairs such as took place at Toms River. Bill 490 is not mandatory, the sponsor considering it expedient not to name a fine to be placed on those who violated it. Due to the closing of the session the bill was not put through. Dr. Baxter has the unusual distinction of having introduced two bills in the Assembly, both of them passing. The third, quoted above, will be voted upon at the next session. One provided that wet wash laundries must weigh laundry when it is dry, before leaving the customer's house, and the other, the "Freeholders Bill," dealt with the charging of each county for upkeep.

Harris stated that the Negro in the South is making progress because of his constant fight, while his brother in the North is losing ground because of his false sense of security. Congratulations were extended to the group at Toms River who had the courage to contend for their rights. Pointing out Asbury Park, Trenton, Camden, Borden-town and a few other places as examples of those Negroes who requested Jim-Crowism, he stated that "may take the man out of the Jim-Crow out seems to be hard to take the Jim-Crow out of the man." At this statement the audience heartily applauded. The young orator is a favorite in this section, always attracting a large audience.

Fill pans about two-thirds full and spread the batter up on the edges with a slight depression in the center in order to have a smooth, even cake when baked. If apples or tomatoes are pricked with a fork before they are baked, they will not break open while cooking. Preserves, especially if they are in glass bottles, should be stored in a dark place. They deteriorate in flavor quickly if kept in a light place. Suggestions Scallops With Cheese. Three-fourth cup minced scallops; one and one-half cups water; three tablespoons fat; three tablespoons flour; one and one-half teaspoons salt; one egg yolk; three tablespoons grated cheese. Cover the scallops with the water and cook until they shrivel. Melt the fat in a saucepan, add the flour and scallops with liquid and salt. Stir vigorously until thick. Take from the fire and add the beaten egg yolk and cheese. Pour into custard cups and set in the oven until the cheese is melted and brown on top. Serve in the cups.

CHILD-BEARING NEED NOT BE DANGEROUS The New York Maternity Center Association takes care of pregnant women, and last year—1926—it was so successful in this work that not a single one of the 2,000 mothers cared for died as the result of childbirth. If this group had shown the same maternal death rate as that for the city in general eight or more of the 2,000 would have lost their lives. The association formerly gave care exclusively to poor women, but last year it offered its services to mothers of the professional and salaried classes and nearly 200 such mothers took advantage of them.

Dear Egypt Ann: Dear Egypt, I suddenly worried. Won't you please help me? I am a young girl of 18 and am in love with a young man of 20. He is very good at heart and has very pleasant ways, drinks and gumbles. My mother says if I marry him he will wreck my life. I love him with all my heart and I know that if I married him I could reform him, I can help him. I am in love with her heartbreak. Don't tell me to give him up. I can't. I love him too much. My mother reads your column and I know she will change her mind if you say so. BROWN EYES. Dear Brown Eyes: The other day I overheard two women talking. One said: "William has given up drinking at last. He joined church last month. You don't know how relieved I feel. Will know what my life has been for the last twenty-three years." The other woman nodded, but said nothing. She looked thoughtfully at her companion and I looked at her too. You could see the impress that anxiety, burdens and hard work had left. Deeply lined face, roughened and swollen hands, and shinny clothes told a tale. Yes, he reformed, but not until he had wasted the best part of his own and his wife's life. No, Brown Eyes, they don't reform so easily. Practice makes perfect, you know, and he's probably a champ in the game by now. It stands to reason that if he doesn't stop now, while there is uncertainty of winning you, he'll take his time in reforming, if he reforms at all, after he has won you. Tell him that you are going to give him up, and why. If he promises to go straight and makes good that promise you might take the chance of marrying him. Otherwise, give him up. Luck to you. EGYPSY ANN. Dear Egyptay Ann: DAVID SEPERSON, a young man of 20 and am earning a fair salary. One would think that I am an independent man, but this is not so because my family has a father and mother at present, and while they do not object to my staying out late, they always question me about where I have been. In fact, if my mother and woman they go up in the air. If they know her, they try to belittle her, and if they do not they sort of hint that she isn't what she ought to be. Since they are readers of this paper, perhaps they will see this and think about it. If they keep up this way I'll leave them. I have to marry some time, and they make a very good for me. Thanks, very much. ALEX. Dear Alex: Your parents should not speak disparagingly of persons whom they do not know and haven't even seen. The fact that they do weakens all plausible argument that they may present concerning anybody. I were you I would listen to them and then investigate for myself. You've got to live your own life. Remember, too, that your parents are possibly unduly worried over your welfare. Don't think too seriously over the matter and cheer up. In a year you will be 21. BGYPSY ANN.

Sara Washington If we women ever accepted anything with opened arms, it was the style of wearing the hair bobbed. The style came as a blessing to many women with naturally short hair. I often wonder how the girls of the early part of this century would now compare with the girls of today. With short hair in style, and with our modern methods of artificially changing the hair from curly that need to manage, a Great handicap has been overcome. Frankly, our appearance has been improved more than 900 per cent. There are more than a hundred ways of arranging and cutting the bob to harmonize with your features. A bob is more easily managed and cleansed. It is more healthful and has many advantages over long hair. About the only disadvantage of the bobbed hair style is the fact that it has a tendency to increase baldness, if we do not diligently guard against this possibility. This baldness will be brought on by the wearing of close-fitting hats. When we wear tight-fitting hats they cut the collar and supply going to head. This sturves the hair roots and they finally wither and die. When long hair was in vogue, it acted as a cushion and though the hat may have been tight-fitting it did not cut off the blood nourishment.

ELEVEN Eddie Hunter's "How Come" Remains as Last of Old Guard on Broadway Eddie Hunter's "How Come" Remains as Last of Old Guard on Broadway Which Recalls the Brains That Produced Worth-While Shows of the Past — Schuyler's Article One of the Most Brilliant Things Done on the Decadence of the Negro Theatre—Going Back in Retrospect THE return of Eddie Hunter and his "How Come" offering, now known as "411-44," recalls forebly two things which took place in the Negro theatre—at least those houses catering to Negroes—during the present era. First, that Hunter's show was the last of the line that has stood up for any length of time, and secondly, that night at the Lafayette Theatre when an indignant audience arose as one and for the first time in the history of theatrical offerings since we have been going to shows, in "our theatres," boldly howled down the curtain on an abortive offering that sought to pull a comeback the first night it opened. It was a scream. The Lafayette Theatre, before that night, had offered all the good musical comedies about to pass to make way for the present revues, hence it was a revelation to those putting on the show when an audience acted in such an emphatic manner. We do not believe that any other production known to the old and new generation suffered such a pronounced denunciation and proved that in spite of the claims made by small time producers, who only came to Seventh avenue because of the 135th street policy of a generation ago, we came pretty near knowing what we were talking about when we told of the difference of audiences of the past and present. TWELVE Best Amusements in Greater New Eddie Hunter’s “How as Last of Old C Which Recalls the Brains The Shows of the Past — the Most Brilliant Thing of the Negro Theatre— THE return of Eddie Hunter is known as “4-11-44” recalls from in the Negro theatre—at least during the present era. First, the line that has stood up for any length at the Lafayette Theatre when an and for the first time in the history have been going to shows, in “our curtain on an abortive offering the first night it opened. It was a scene The Lafayette Theatre, before musical comedies about to pass to hence it was a revelation to those practiced in such an emphatic manner, production known to the old and nounced denunciation and proved to small time producers, who only ca the 135th street policy of a generating what we were talking about with encases of the past and present. Hunter's "How Come" went into the Apollo Theatre downtown under conditions which did not give it a chance to last, but it at least introduced the only comedian who has been likened by those who ought to know to the Bert Williams of an earlier day. So much so the writer of this article had no trouble in proving to Hunter that he could very well forego going on the cheaper records, waiting and successfully going to the Victor, the goal towards which, at that time, many aimed but were unable to reach. In producing "How Come," Hunter proved that he had a mind with the possibilities that would have made him in the Broadway field did he enjoy the right backing, and unlike the number of others that made their bid, propped up by sympathetic boosts at the hands of critics still in a maze from the success of "Shuffle Along." "How Come" made good wherever shown and did that which even to this day others find it hard to do, and that is to go into John T. Gibson's "White Elephant," known as the Dunbar Theatre, in Philadelphia and make good. Recently one of the latest revues, the "Alhamn" if we are not mistaken, went into the Dunbar and suffered the same fate of many another of its kind. We are old those super-minds giving advice to the theatrical owners did not know enough to give out the information that South street will not leave the Standard over night and journey to the Dunbar. That crowd that once patronized the Dunbar has taken its cue from Seventh avenue, but unlike Seventh avenue, South street patronage is not so large, and besides, it WONDERFUL NEW DISCOVERY WRITENS AND CLEARS YOUR SKIN AFTER A FEW TREATMENTS BABAH Freckles, Blackheads, Muddiness, Tan, Pimples, Sallowness, Blotches and all Blemishes by this wonderful new scientific treatment, which positively clears and whitens your skin after a few nights' treatment.

Then, too, it is timely that we should stop and recall Jim Europe, who helped to introduce Noble Nissle in this part of the world and who, with Euble Blake, formed a team that kept alive the desire for the best things along this line of entertainment. We hope those using the rake in the Angean stables will stop long enough to take a healthy breath, ask their better for a little information on what real contribution to the art and take advantage of art the and take inspiration from what has gone before them. There never was a time when that old brigade found it necessary to resort to the gutter stuff of the present to make a success. The incapables of the present think such stuff necessary and use the argument that the times call for the difference which they supply in filch. One performer's idea of greatness was disclosed the other might when he tried to have us believe that one of that band who, if he lived to be a thousand years, will never leave a name to take its place along with those in the charmed circle, should be considered because he was the first to introduce a certain line of "Mule in Mah Stall Blues." The trouble with this individual trying to take up the cudgels in behalal of those who were keeping them in the street from the North Pole in Philadelphia; when Andrew Thomas was in his heyday at the Howard in Washington; when Eugene (Frenchy) Elmore was the accepted impresario of 135th street, is that the time he employs trying to impress newspapermen with his greatness (despite his Jennie Scheper THE WEEKLY NEWS 10 JULY 1914 Miss Scheper Is the Wife of A.

And since we are speaking of the old and new, we might as well indulge in the memories of certain members of the opposite sex. We saw a picture of a lady supposedly receiving contracts for a new season in rehashed revues which made us wonder what the newspaperman who took that picture would have done in a day just a little earlier did he enjoy the opportunity of being present to witness the one and only Alda Overton Walker receiving REAL CONTRACTS at the hands of big Broadway producers. And speaking of Miss Walker, with the exception of Florence Mills, the new generation hasn't produced any female of color anywhere in this wide world with the ability of Aida Overton Walker in her particular line. And note well that Miss Mills is enjoying her success singing songs (oh, how can you forget Florence putting over "Cover Me with the Sunshine of Virginia" and other such numbers?) without the least trace of that rugged and suggestiveness the majority of our other queens of the present day revue stage are forced to use to get the applause from the lowest element of the population.

"The Flaming Forest" at the New Lincoln Theatre Sidney Easton and Joe Simms Bring Back "The Mayor of Jimtown" More than forty acres of ground were occupied by the reproduction of a Canadian frontier village and fort used in the filming of "The Flaming Forest,' the Cosmopolitan production filmed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer under the direction of Reginald Barker, one of the most famous directors of western epics. The picture, featuring Antonio Moreno and Renee Adoree, supported by a cast of more than twenty celebrated players, will be shown at the New Lincoln Theatre the latter part of this week. The village, which was under construction for more than a month before a camera was cranked, was the largest motion-picture set of its kind ever constructed and was a faithful reproduction of a frontier town and stockade of the early seventies before Canada ever made any real attempt to govern the three hundred thousand square miles known as the Northwest Territory. Sidney Easton and Joe Simms, those two irresistible cut-ups, returned to the Lincoln this week in "The Mayor of Jimtown." Ably added and abetted by Paul Floyd, "Onions" Jeffrey and a host of others. The show continues to please patrons of the popular little house. Theatre Boys' Novelty Dance Theatre Boys' Novelty Dance Will Be Offered at Renaissance Casino Thursday Night. April 8 If for nothing else than the splendid midnight shows which they have given to Harlem during the past few years, we believe the Theatre Boys of the Keith-Albee Circuit can look forward to the support of the general public at their novelty dance and reception which will be staged at the Renaultance Casino on the night of April 8. It was this same bunch that first introduced Vincent Lopez to Harlem, and from the night Vincent appeared here and took Harlem by storm the boys have enjoyed the confidence of the people in the community. Then came the night some weeks back when they asked Harlem to journey to the Alhambra Theatre to witness that monster midnight gambol. They did it up brown and hundreds who never enter a local theatre turned out on that night, as they knew they were being given the goods, and the Theatre Boys scored another triumph. With an eye to again pleasing their large number of supporters, the boys have left no stone unturned in trying to make the coming affair one of the best we have had around here in many seasons.

Frank Harrison on Concert Tour Promising Young Baritone Completes Swing That Met With Success A very successful concert tour has just been completed by Frank Harrison, baritone, who ranks among the most promising of the younger group of artists of today. Mr. Harrison rendered programs at Talladega, Kittrell and North Carolina Colleges. Johnson C. Smith University, State Normal School at Montgomery, Ala., and the Bluefield Institute, Blufield, West Virginia. Press reports from these localities give evidence of the rare quality of Mr. Harrison's singing, and the enthusiastic manner in which he was received, the Bluesfield Daily Telegraph recording the recital as "what is considered one of the finest recitals that has been offered in Bluesfield for many a month." The Telegraph continued: "Catching his audience from the first with Handel's beautiful 'Dank sel. Dir Herr.' Mr. Harrison continued to retain the deep interest of his audience throughout the recital. He displayed great depth of feeling and his wonderful shading and evenness of tone were outstanding features. Mr. Harrison was ably supported at piano by Bernard Walton, instructor of piano at the Bluefield Institute." Mr. Harrison is a graduate of Howard University, having studied also with Myron Whitney and at the Suengren Studios in New York City. His schedule of return engagements to these schools next year, along with concerts to be given under other auspices, indicates the favor in which he is held as a recitalist. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 30, 1927 Utopia Club Fashion Show Promises to Eclipse Former Efforts by the Ladies of the Organization On April 29 the Utopia Neighborhood Club will present its 13th Annual Fashion Show at the Manhattan Casino The modistes and the various committees are making every effort to present the greatest fashion show in the history of the club, and the advanced sale of boxes, loges and tickets indicates that it will be well attended. The Utopia Club has for 15 years given to the needy children of Harlem, either through charity organizations or through individuals interested in child welfare. Five years ago it planned to establish a community house for children and it has worked consistently in that direction. Today the club owns a four-story house, purchased and renovated, with $20,000 raised from among the colored people of Harlem. The Fashion Show is given for the expressed purpose of raising funds to help equip this house with a children's cafeteria and with recreation and study rooms for children over day nursery age. Patrons will find tickets on sale at the Utopia House, 170 West 180th street. Richard Dix and Betty Bronson at Renaissance Mae Murray in "Valencia" Will Also Be a Feature Here This Week "Paradise for Two," with Richard Dix and Betty Bronson, comes to the Renaissance Theatre Thursday, March 3, and Friday, April 1. Omar Khayyam never had a brighter idea of life than is portrayed by Richard Dix in this picture, excellently screened, with some of the most exquisite scenes ever shown in the films. Mae Murray in "Valencia," with Lloyd Hushes, will be the week-end attraction Saturday, Sunday and Monday, April 2, 3 and 4. This is one of the season's epics and the first week of the talented Miss Murray since her appearance in "The Merry Widow." As its name would imply, the picture is laid in Spain and in it is all the romance of that romantic land, with the hot love such as only a Spanish land is capable of. If you like sweet romance, intermingled with a deeplaid plot, see "Valencia." Renaissance Theatre patrons should wait for the showing of "Flesh and the Devil," with John Gilbert. It will be seen here shortly. 1921 1927 CHARITY DANCE Given by AMBASSADOR SOCIAL CLUB For the Benefit of New York Urban League AT REAMINSANCE CASINO 15th St. and 7th Ave. EASTER MONDAY NIGHT APRIL 18, 1927 Subscription $1.00 Boxes $5.00 For reservations see H.

Martin at Imperial Anditorium, Friday evening, March 25, was without a doubt a success artistically as well as financially. Miss Josephine Muse, soprano, of Washington, D. C., who was the visiting artist on the program, was enthusiastically received by the audience. She revealed a voice of beautiful quality, which was glorious to listen to. Miss Sonoma Talley, pianist, was in her usual fine form and her piano playing on this occasion showed her to be an artist of wonderful ability, and the audience showed their appreciation for her delightful playing by their hefty applause. Mr. David I. Martin 'cellist, and director of the Martin-Smith Music School, Inc., pleased his audience with his renditions and his playing was like that of a matured artist and was well received by the audience.

"Three Hours at the Roosevelt Corinne Griffith Will Again Be Seen in a Tense Drama Having attained stardom in pictures through her outstanding ability in the portrayal of highly emotional roles, and proving recently her unusual versatility by interspersing her dramatic offerings with comedy of the tempo of "classified" and "Syncopating Sue." Corinne Griffith will again be seen in tense drama in "Three Hours," which Manager Shapiro of the Roosevelt Theatre has booked for a showlight beginning this Saturday. In a part which enacts from the famous star her utmost talent in character portrayal, Miss Griffith's role is without doubt her most outstanding dramatic success. Enacting the role of a wife who is the The New Douglas Offers Another Gilbert's Newest a German Picture Made in the United States "What would a European picture be like with American direction and the quaintness of old world settings and technique" How often critics and the public have asked this question. And now this has come to pass. At New Douglas Theatre the latter part of this week there is a European picture; every foot of it transports one back across the Atlantic—but directed by an American—and with an American star. "Flesh and the Devil" is the first German picture made in America. It has all the settings of Europe: all the technique of the old world; it is a drama from one of Europe's mightiest dramatist; and still it was directed by Clarence Brown, American, at the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios, in America—and with John Gilbert, American hero of "The Big Parade," in the leading role. John Gilbert and Greta Garbo, the brilliant Swedish screen star, play hero and heroine, with Lars Hanson.

A.N., large jar; Best Sport Pages in Greater New York FOURTEEN CRACK ORIOLES DUE SUNDAY Johnny Beckman's World Beaters to Meet the Renaissance Five Beckman Real Star WORK ON CELTIC TEAM KNOWN BY GREAT HOST OF COLORED PANS WHO WILL TURN OUT Somebody said the other day that Bob Douglas is the most reckless book manager of a basketball team in the country, and when asked the reason for this observation we were told to recall the teams which Bob has been playing all season and those he has been bringing to the Renaissance Casino every Sunday night to meet his colored champs. Even though we are supposed to keep such things at our fingertips, it has really escaped us, and in proof of the recklessness of Douglas note that Johnny Beckman and his world-beating Ortles are coming here this Sunday night to hook up with the Renaissance. "What's the difference?" asked Bob, when we approached him. "We are playing big time basketball, and the harder the teams the better we like it." "Then, too, a glance at our record will show that we haven't fared so bad by meeting the best in the game. Give the fans a run for their money, whether you are on the winning or losing end, and they will be satisfied. We are not only in the game to win, but to show the world we are doing our very best when losing." After those few remarks the crowd can gather at the Renaissance satisfied that one of the hardest games will take place there when Mr. Beckman takes the court to lead his Orlojes against the colored lads. Beckman needs no introduction at this late date. Colored and white basketball fans are aware that he was the sloppy of the team's Colts, and since going to Baltimore has rounded out one of the best teams in the world. At a tune up for the big game, the Renaissance took the hard fighting Newburgh team, with Joe Dreyfus, into camp last Sunday evening by the score of 34-24. The preliminary game featured the Majestics and the Atlas from Long Branch, N. J. The New Yorkers whipped their New Jersey rivals by a score of 43-34 and claim they were under wraps because the game nights' game promises to be one of the best seen here this season, and don't be surprised if the Douglas men are forced to the limit to win.

Sunday afternoon ended a disorder following several fights among the players, and finally the police stepped in and stopped the game. Five thousand persons turned out. At the time the game was halted Newark was leading by 1 to 0, with 15 minutes to play. Heavy snow fell during the contest. Newark blocked off and attacked at once. Perone shooting hard at Murdock. Newark drove them back. Duggean testing Battignani. Andrade was hurt when he collided with McGowan, but resumed shortly. Renfrew broke through, but Duggean messed a fine chance to score from his pass. Renfrew again got through, but the Uruguay backs sandwiched him savagely and the referee awarded a penalty. This was strongly protested by the South Americans. The crowd broke on the field and were driven back by the police. The Uruguayans made it understood that if Newark scored from the penalty they would walk off the field, whereupon Jock Marshall, who was entrusted with the kick, deliberately drove the ball past the post. Newark now played hard, and Andrade stood out conspicuously with defensive work. Romano broke away on the left, but Murdock turned aside his singing drive in fine style. The play became dull and up to half-time-nothing had been scored. The South Americans sent in Haberle for Petroca and Saldomide for Romano in the second half, Newark set a fast pace upon resuming. Batignani saved several stinging shots in quick succession. Under severe pressure, the Uruguay goalkeeper saved marvelously from Duggan at short range. Back went the ball, the South Americans obtaining a corner, which was cleared with difficulty. Bad feeling was shown by the players. Recoba being warned by the referee for rough play. Newark now attacked fiercely. Renfrew downing the ball into the net from a great pass by McGowan after 25 minutes of play. Scarone and Green and Cea and Daley came to blows and the crowd swarmed on the field. This led to a free for all fight in which the spectators joined. A large squad of police rushed on the field, and after several arrests were made decided that to continue the game was impossible. Saginup: NEWARK Murriock Murriock Murriock R. B. R. B. R. B. R. H.

WEDNESDAY. MARCH 30. 1927 STREAKS STOP THE FLASHES --- Long Island Basketball Players to Make Trip to Yonkers The Corona Streaks of Corona, I., trimmed the Newark Flashes down to the tune of 57-40 last Tuesday night on the latter's court. As an exciting and crowd-drawing game, it was a marvel. The Streaks, consisting of Barton, Brake, Landrum, Hutchins, Keele, Henderson and Lane, coached by Caryle Lane, are all residents of Corona, with the exception of Landrum, who lives in Harlem, led the Flashes by one point all through the game. The Flashes fought well to down their opponents, but were unsuccessful. At halftime the Streaks led by one point, the score being two. From point until eight minutes to go it was a tight game. James Milo, of the Flashes, had eleven free throws, missing only one. Landrum and Drake were the outstanding stars of the game for the Streaks. Drake making five field goals from the center of the floor, and Landrum making seven field goals. The Corona Streaks will next be seen in action at the Lyceum Hall. Yonkers, N. Y., on April 1. LEE'S BIG KITTEN RUNNING WILD Tuxedo "Tigers" Swamp Elites on Third and Deciding at Orange High In their third and final meeting the famous Tuxedo "Tiger" quintet, led by the one and only J. Richard Lee, defeated the Elites of Orange in the third game of a five-game series. In the first game the Tigers ran roughshod over Cook's combination. The second meeting created much enthusiasm as the Oranges had whispered around that they would run Lee and his big cat so far back into their lair it would take the rest of the basketball season for them to come out. With the Tigers simply walked away with the Tiger's same game of 32 to 25. Still believing they could knot the striped tail of this big kitten. Manager Arthur Cook reinforced his squad and led them right into the very den of the playful kitty-cat only to be smothered and crushed by a 34-15 defeat. Captain Jas. Peacock gave every man a chance to enter the fracas with instructions to cage one double-decker, and every man made good his orders. Even the mascot obeyed. By virtue of this victory the series is over, with Tuxedos taking three in a row. Poor Elites! SOCCER TEAMS IN HARD GAME Weather Against Uruguayans, but They Tied Score in Great Battle The Brooklyn Wanderers and the Uruguay soccer teams battled to a 2-2 tie Saturday afternoon before 15,000 fans at Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, in the second appearance of the South American invaders. There never was a more Titanic soccer struggle than that staged by these two eleven. Playing in a field that resembled a quagmire, which made their footing almost impossible and in a blinding snowstorm, both teams gave a wonderful exhibition of football, particularly the kickers from South America. Before the game there was a parade to the flagpole by the players and Old Glory was raised by Hector Searone, captain of the Old Glory team, the last player was also presented with bouquet of flowers by Latin admirers. Agar's men jumped in front on Sedlack's goal after eight minutes of play, only to have the Uruguayan center forward, Petone, tie the count, leaving the teams deadlocked at half time. 1 to 1. In the second half, Adair, who replaced Haar, headed in a goal, again giving the Wanderers the advantage, but S. Urdinaran sent in a sensational shot, tying the score at two all, midway in the final period. In the fourth, the roughstones game ever played in these games, the clever players from South America, who hurried all opposition at the Olympic Games in Paris, and last week administered a crushing 6 to 1 defeat to the Indiana Flooring team, played at a disadvantage, as they are not accustomed to the rigorous weather of last Saturday. "Y" Basketball Banquet to Be Heeld at Blue Room The annual Inter-Branch basketball banquet of the local "II" which was scheduled to be held at the Hotel Trianon on Thursday evening.

The group from the 135th street Branch will be in charge of James N. Williams, boys' physical director. MORRIS BROWN TO THE FORE MORRIS BROWN TO THE FORE Downs Morehouse in First Conference Game of Season The Morris Brown Whirlwinds came from behind to overcome a seven-run lead to down the Moseley Tigers 10-9. The heavy hitting of Johnson and Credell's homer with two on featured the game. Idleit's fielding was also, outstanding. Morehouse drew first blood when Stearnes erroneous Hawk's bounder, who scored later on a triple by Idleit. Idleit scored on a fielder's choice. The Tigers scored five runs in the second inning on four hits plus three errors. A walk to Wadley and a stolen base gave Morris Brown her first run when Stearnes doubled. Williams hit a home run in the fifth to give the Tigers their seven-run lead again. Whirlwinds, who scored to Clarence in the fifth on a free throw, a double by Johnson, and a single by Sanders. The sixth, the Tigers scored one run on two hits and an error. Three more runs were scored by Morris Brown in the sixth when they connected with five safe hits plus an error. The lucky seventh saw Morris Brown come from behind to win when Bradley, relief pitcher for Spruill, singled. Clarke got safe on an error. Then Credell, the baby wonder, decided to make up for his error, and slammed the first pitched ball over the left field for a score and by either win was done. The Whirlwinds fought hard all the way and gradually cut the lead down to win. **SCORER BY INNINGS** **R. H. M.

All that's left of a wintry blast is an echo, and what's to come is the loud thud of a baseball hitting a bat. The aforementioned is sure to happen, for the Lincoln Giants and Bronx Giants were on the cards to open their 1927 baseball season last Sunday at the New York Catholic Protectory Oval, East Tremont avenue and 180th street, Bronx. Trains from the Pacific Coast and boats from Cuba have been bringing in players from the winter baseball leagues. James J. Keenan and his astute manager, John Henry Lloyd, are extending every effort to make the 1927 Lincoln Giants the best in years. First they traded Singer and Lindsay to the Baltimore Black Sox for Catcher Rojo. Now comes another swap. Last week the Lincoln Giants and Royal Giants were the clubs involved. The Lincoln Giants traded "Highpockets" Hudspeth, at least so 'tis said, to the Royal Giants for "Bob" Douglas and George Recor Douglas is a crackerjack first baseman, but was in retirement last year, due to ill health. According to "Bob" himself, he feels fit and expects to have a big season. Rector is a pitcher of established reputation, and his right-hand flinging should go a long way towards the success of our "Links." Hudspeth, while not sent down the Mississippi, but traded down the Bronx and East Rivers into Brooklyn, leaves the Protectory Oval with a few reminiscences. He was a likable sort of a fellow, possessed with a witty instinct, and whose comic remarks were the source of much laughter among the players, and his unusual height created much comment from the fans. Another convalescent who expects to play ball this year is Girard Williams. He underwent the knife for the second time in New York Hospital recently and is rapidly recovering. He expects to don a Lincoln Giant uniform. JOE FERDINAND FLOWERS AT THE NOW TURNS PRO. RIDGEW'D CLUB Amateur Star Will Fight Under the Name of Ferdy Williams in Future Another Salem-Crescent amateur boxer has recently left the ranks and will, from now on, be recognized in the professional clubs as Fergie Williams, formerly Joe Ferdinand. Joe was the 118 pound champion of the Salem club and the victim of many raw decisions, but was still recognized by the A. A. U. as one of the leading boys in his class. Joe will be under the management of Gene Flaherty, who is also manager of Benny Hall. Joe tells us that Benny is teaching him all the tricks of the professional trade, and under such wise instruction he hopes to be as successful among the pros as he was in the amateurs. The former champ of the Salem-Crescent Club will get his start in new circles at the Ridgewood Grove Club next Saturday night when he is sent in against some good boy. Well, our readers are acquainted with Joe by this time, as this paper is the only colored paper in the country which has been paying any kind of attention to the work of our boys in the amateurs, and we will all except the best of returns when heights. Picture. Joe, bring in your picture.

FLOWERS AT THE RIDGEW'D CLUB Fast Going Lightweight Will Tackle Celmars in Final BROOKLYN:—What promises to be a shindy worth going miles to witness was captured by Matchmaker Jack Clifford of the New Ridgewood Grove Sporting Club when he signed Bruce Flowers, New Rochelle, and Joey Celmars, white, of Hoboken, to do the main act at his Palace of Swat this Saturday evening. According to the dope, the meeting between Flowers and Celmars will be far from the waltz variety, as the boys say in Tin Ear Alley. The fans at large are well aware of the ability of the New Rochelle lair and in the little Hoboken German Bruce will be confronted with stiff opposition, as he employs practically the same style of milling-infighting and throwing gloves, as long as there is something to hit. In a recent engagement Celmars soundly trounced Al Winkler, the clever Philadelphia lad, who has defeated Babe Herman and Honeyboy Finnegan. Fans haven't forgotten the great scrap that Celmars put up against Babe Herman at the Polo Grounds two or three years ago, when he jumped in at a moment's notice to sub for Johnny Dundee. her six dancing girls are taking part in the show. We understand that all the performers of color in the show went in through the efforts of Mr. Fields. LEARN TO DANCE ANDERSON'S STUDIO 564 LENOX AVE., ROOM 14 Bradhurst 3572 Herbert A.

New Rochelle lightweight contender, continue his march toward a try at Sammy Mandel's crown by decisively our pointing Tony Vaccarelli, Harlen Italian, in every round of a ten session main event contest at the Pioneer Sporting Club, in East 244th street, last Tuesday evening. Flowers scaled 136 pounds, and his opponent was three pounds heavier. As early as the second period it was evident that Bruce was master of the situation. There wasn't much doing in the initial round, but business picked up in the second. Vaccarelli was the aggressor in the early rounds, while Bruce cool as a cueumber, was content with jabbing with his left, felling the Italian into leading, and then countering with his one-two punch. Tony took trips to the canvas for short counts in the fourth and fifth, the result of Bruce's hectic left, which it is that Joe Wolcott, wolverweight champion of the world a good many years ago, has been schooling the upstate boy into effectively. Flowers took the aggressive in the sixth, and pummelled Tony all over the ring. It was a hectic session for Johnny Dundee's protege who, after taking several to the mid-section near the end of the round, held on for dear life, until the gong came to his rescue. The seventh session was the only one he had been called near even. Flowers suddenly being content to stall along he said the situation well in hand. Once the Italian got over a right to tip jaw that shook Bruce up a bit, it must have hurt, for he worked in close and body-punched his opponents until the end of the round. Vaccarelli appeared tired and showed the effect of considerable "catching" when he toed the mark for the eighth. He didn't seem able to get out of his own way—his leg wouldn't let him. The remaining rounds were a repetition of the early sessions, and at the beginning of the ninth the customers commenced to desert the old Horse Stable. Jackie Pilkington, weighing 127 pounds, trimmed Nat Kawler, 134½, in the ten-round semi-final. Sunferman, of California, gave Al Matera a boxing lesson in a ten spot. Eddie Pfeister stopped.

Is Already Storm Center of Other Clubs The commissioners of the Eastern Colored League hearded to President Nutter's call Friday, March 25, in Philadelphia. With season rapidly approaching there was much for the solos of baseball to accomplish in a short time. Declaring that the ruling enacted by both leagues, banishing a player for a five-year period for jumping a contract, too drastic, like Nutter, the new leader of the Eastern loop, has already intimated that he will come out in a flat-faced manner for modifying this rule. In fact, the Atlantic City attorney will insist upon power to constrain erring players in the Eastern circuit whom he thinks have been sufficiently punished or their case warrants clemency. This ruling was put over by the concerted opinion of resentful wrestlers who felt their injury to ball tossers, who in turn discarded contracts and gentlemen's agreements and turned into whichever avenue their whims desired, mulcting from the others of the various clubs' cash ticks as they jumped from club to club. However, the inception of organized ball, alone, did much to eradicate this so termed evil from the owners' standpoint. But President Nutter has brought on the point that the owners as well as players were responsible for the previous conditions and it is unjust to bar peeping away from the field as well as revive the league of capable and efficient players. Whatever hope that Ed Bolden may have had relative to adding Buck Ewing to the string of Hilldale ball tossers has gone glimming with the ultimatum handed to the Hilldale boss from two points. The case of Buck Ewing is as peculiar as it is lengthy and was the first important controversy that the Nutter had to pass upon. It is that the player in question has never won the uniform of any club in the Eastern League. Him Keenan secured the signature of Ewing to a Lincoln Giant contract back over a period of two years, but the catcher refused to report. He, however, was recognized as property of the New York team. Then during the past winter when the Lincoln Giants hoped to win a World Series, Colonel Strothers, who holds forth in Harrisburg, signed in the same Ewing and did so with a feeling that Ewing was a free agent from a couple of angles. On top of these happenings Ewing has been offered the job of manning the team that he played with at Schenectady, N. Y., and in turn has accepted same. So when he fell ill that another ace Macon was just lonely eyes at Ewing, telling that the player had a deal to the two fellow league clubs and the fact that he wasn't blacked because he had never re- Gonzell White Praises Exelento Gonzell White of Big Jamboree Co.

Sixth Annual Intercollegiate Championships to Be Held on Armstrong Field BY JAMES B. CLARK HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va. March 28.—The Director of Physical Education at Hampton Institute, Charles H. Williams, announces that the sixth annual intercollegiate Championship Track and Field Meet will be held on Armstrong Field. Hampton Institute, Saturday, May 14. In the intercollegiate division there will be the 100, 120, 440 and 880 dashes, the mile and two mile runs, the 220 low hurdles and the 120 high hurdles. The Field events will include the shot pat (16 lbs.), lavelin throw, discuss throw, broad jump, high jump, and pole vault. A beautiful silver loving cup will be given to the "Defender Special" (College 440). The Chicago Defender has taken much interest in the meet and has given this prize as a manifestation of its interest. A point trophy will be awarded the institution winning the highest number of points in this division, and gold, silver, and bronze medals will be given the winners of the first three places respectively. The "Madam C. J. Walker Trophy" will be awarded the winner of the collegiate mile relay. This trophy becomes the preeminent property of the first institution winning it three times. The interscholastic division will run off the 190, 220, 440 and 880 dashes, the 120 low hurdles, the pole vault, the broad jump, the high jump, and the shot put. 12 ported. Bolden then sent a missive to both Keenan and Strothers inquiring the possibility and asking permission to seek the services of Ewling. The Colonel from Hamburg promptly answered that at present he had no other catcher but Ewling in sight and he was needed at the capital city, which ended the quest from that source. Then Jim Keenan, the orator from the Bronx, came through in no uncertain tone, informing Bolden and the pop-aged world that Buck Ewing was the property of the Lincoln Giants and under no consideration would he listen to the Philadelphia club making advances to the much sought catcher. And thereby hangs a tale. The difference of opinion always stimulates action so there is bound to be a skirmish about the player who has never appeared.

Collins and Stevens scored six points each for the Lightweights. Harris of the Metros caged two field goals and three fouls for seven points.

BOXES 1000 LOGS 8.90 Harvest ..... 1 Stevens ..... 2 Washington ..... 2 Eldridge ..... 1 Romondt ..... 4 Collins ..... 3 EASTER MONDAY NIGHT APR. 18 1927 OLD-FASHIONED BATTLE ROYAL Staged in Richmond, Va., at Show Offering Ali Colored Bouts Richmond fight lovers were enthusiastic in their turnout for boxing, held at the Coliseum last Monday night, when colored fighters presented 30 rounds of the fistic art for their benefit. All the bouts were interesting; go interesting in fact that one partisan became so excited he tried to take the part of one of the fighters after he had been downed by a "hard boiled" opponent. The "man from the audience" did get one sock at the fighter, a light blow in other words, when he was pulled back into his chair by a few of his neighbors. Beginning with the battle royal in which five local boys took part, and did a gallant share of mitt slinging, the card seemed to please the huge audience in every way. In the first encounter Ted Wynn, local boy, fought Kid Warren of Oxford, O. to a draw. These boys fought at 115 pounds and put up a fairly fast go. Wynn was at a disadvantage because of the much longer reach of his opponent, but gave a good account of himself. The second bout of the evening proved the "laugh getter." Two big lids, one name Treetop Taylor of Oxford, O. and the other Ben Egler of Dayton, O. did everything but throw buckets and sponges at each other in their little four-round affair. Treetop did not seem to know the meaning of the word "break" in light lingo and was finally disqualified by Referee Drulesley having been warned several times before hitting him coming out of a clutch. His first round and while causing a bit of funny features for the audience, did not furnish much in the way of the static art. Lester Boyd of this city scored a knockout over "Knockout Dale" of Dayton in the third bout of the evening. Boyd seemed to take things easy throughout the fight and had Dale groggy in the second found in the fourth stanza Dale out in the fourth to the sleep tap in the fifth session Boyd is a real comer, possessing a quick, double shift in a clever defense. In the fourth host of the card Danny Huff of Dayton scored a technical knockout over Kid Rhodes of Cincinnati in the fourth. Although fighting at 126 pounds Huff seemed to have quite a bit of weight advantage, but Kid Rhodes hung on until he was tapped on in the fourth. Up to the fourth host, he was even. It is reported Kid Rhodes was formerly a sparring mate of Bud Taylor of Terre Haute, world champion flyweight. Art Stigall of Dayton, Q., scored a technical knockout over Joe Wingo of Columbus in the fifth round of their scheduled ten-round go. Both men had exchanged some terrific blows in the fifth session when Wingo hurt his leg and went down. His seconds tossed a sponge in the ring when he was about to be counted out. Braves Rarin' to Go Although the New York Braves Baseball Club was kept idle on Sunday by the weather, it won't be very long now before they play their first regular game of the season. The Braves have been strengthened in a few positions and can now give a good account of themselves against any amateur in the city. The pitching aces of the club are Nahomedes, Small and Hill. The infielders Buck Harris, Dustin Wilson, Pete Pearson and the manager, Percy, "Radio" Robinson. "Jep" Sasso and, possibly, "Babe" Daniels will take care of the fly catching. Stumps will do the receiving. The other members of the team are Geetter and Mackintosh.

John Brunson and Luke Smith, two new entries, are leading the field so far. Brunson had a hairbreadth defeat from R. S.

He was playing for the class D new beginner in this tournament, has won his three starts and is going fine. Upets are looked for as the tournament progresses.

MEDICINE MEDICINE MEDICINE MAGAZINE SECTION -:- Darrow in Washington Author of "From Superman to Man" Reaches North African Seaport Casablanca, Morocco. March 21, 1927. HERE, in this land made famous recently by Abdel-Krim, and and still earlier by its leather. I am encountering experiences so singular that it seems as if I had been taken up bodily and thrust back a thousand years into the days of Haroun-al-Raschid, Morocco, whose history is older than that of Rome, is rightly called "The Classic Land of the Arabian Nights." To read of Africa, or at least the part of it I have seen in the past few days, is one thing, to see it is quite another. I shall try my best to communicate to my readers some of the things I have seen, some of the surprises I have experienced, but I will consider myself fortunate, indeed, if I convey but a small part of it. But to proceed in regular order I must tell something of the trip across, and of the folk I met. The last time, I took an American ship, meeting mostly Nordics; this time it is an Italian one, with every person in third class Italian. I being the only one to whom the English language is native. All are black-haired. The last time with the Ameri- Noted Attorney Gives Capital Its First Thrill in Months I HAVE lived in Washington for more than forty years. During all of that time I cannot easily recall that the appearance of any single individual ever stirred the imagination of the multitude as did the coming of Darrow a fortnight ago. We are accustomed to so many distinguished personages in the national capital that we pay little heed to any particular celebrity aside from political excitation. There are few if any renowned orators since Bryan died whose announcement would fill an ordinary auditorium. When Neval Thomas, the local head on the N. A. A. C. P., announced the coming of Darrow, the more cautious and hesitant became fearful that the audience might not prove to be complimentary to the renown of the great commoner. A shabby showing on such an occasion would have been a sad reflection on the part of the colored people of the capital city. Nevai Thomas deserves the bulk of the credit. He is a human dynamo in the cause of liberty, fraternity, equality. Under the guiding hand of his leadership, our militant organization moves on from victory to victory. The Washington branch of this organization has national significance. Everything radiates from this local point. Nevai Thomas is the right man in the right place at the right time. It was his eloquent persuasion and impassioned appeal that swung the populace to this great national reception to Mr. Darrow. The city of Washington expressed the sentiment of the race at large. The daily papers stated that there were three thousand enthusiastic auditors inside the building, with five thousand on the outside clamoring for admission. An overflow meeting quickly filled an adjacent church which Mr. Darrow addressed at the termination of the central meeting. I was among the strong which arrived out of the season and had to loar the emphatic pronoun- canized Nordics it was "nigger, nigger." most of the time. With these folk there is nothing of the sort; it is "colored lady" and "colored gentleman" when speaking of the colored people with whom they have worked or traded. The majority belong either to the laboring or the petty trading classes. As to personal habits, they are neither cleaner nor dirtier than the Nordics, and certainly less odorous, but this is winter, and I had the Nordics in the summer. The table manners are better: the average intelligence is about the same, and the amiability and cheerfulness—important factors in good citizenship—much higher than that of the Nordics. Hereafter, by the way, I shall have to be careful about calling colored folk noisy. All in all, my opinion that the Southern European is not inferior to the Northern one, class for class, remains. When the immigration quotas favors the latter at the expense of the former, it seems to me more than ever, a case of white folk drawing "the color line" within their own ranks. It is but the American fetish for so-called whiteness of skin. As to the opinion of many of my fellow-passengers regarding America, that is interesting. America, they think, is a the place for making money but little else. Many have been buying homes in Italy, and are going home to take things easy the rest of their lives. Some with large families are returning because they say it is simply impossible to make ends meet with eight or nine children in America. One mother, travelling alone with three helpless children, and an expectant fourth, is being sent home by her husband.

The same appeal that moved the multitude in the days of old moves it still. Whenever appeal is made to the human heart, the human heart responds. Darrow touches the fundamental depths of human nature. He pleads for elemental justice. To him race and color are but meaningless surface markings. I know of but one great American with whom to compare him, and that is Robert G. Ingersol, the eloquent apostle of freedom. Ingersol was the great religious liberal of his day. He ridiculed the religious beliefs and feelings which his fellow men held dear. But, at the same time, he was the outstanding liberal in the field of human rights.

Had this champion of religious liberalism come to the capital to speak on religious freedom, he doubtless would have met with wide acclaim. But on such a mission his welcome would have come all but wholly from the whites. But, turning aside from his great legal triumph in the religious arena, he took up the cause of an unpopular race. He lent his legal talent and the detached devotion of his soul to the defense of the Negro's right to defend his home and fireside. Just as the white man defends his home and fireside. Darrow at Detroit touches the high-water mark of legal altruism. He was working neither for free nor for fame, but simply for the joy and zest of the working. THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 30, 1927 By J. A. ROGERS To return to Morocco. My first impression of Casablanca from the ship was that of entering a modern American seaport, except for the whiteness of the building: it is literally casa blanca—"white house" in Spanish. Withwashing is a fetish with the Moor. Overhead was the bluest sky I have ever seen, which came down to meet a sea so much its own color that it was difficult to define the horizon. Over the mountains, back toward the great desert, were the strongest cloud forms, suggesting fleecy flocks of enormous sheep. Entering the town, one is reminded of Paris, except for its newness. Taxis, with 'the old French honk, dash hither and thither; the shops, with Parisian names, have the latest styles; the terraces of the cafes are crowded with patrons sipping their bocks or coffee; hotels, banks, all but for the Moorish influence in the architecture, reind one of France. But wait, all this is but the entree to one of the strquestest sights the eye of an American can ever behold. Step behind a wall abutting the main street into the native quarter, and you step back a thousand years, further back yet, into Bible times. Narrow, tortuous streets, hurching camels; pathetic little donkeys, some loaded with hammers, others being ridden, without rein, the rider nearest the tail; water-carriers with skins, still the shape of the animals, so that when filled it resembles, a bloated goat minus the head and tail: fezzes; turbans; hoods; velled ladies; with here and there the latest style of motor car in which some rich Moor, black or white, is riding with his bodyguard and chauffeur; tourists, singly or in parties, and Addressing Church Gathering, Great Commoner Scores Christianity I have known Mr. Darrow for many years. I first met him in the office of my good friend. Dr. Bentley of Chicago. He was introduced as a white man who was willing to go all of the way with the Negro. Detroit merely presented the occasion to bring out what was in him. He rings true at every point. He is not putting on, but giving out. I did not hear the address, but read large quotations in the morning press. Those present tell me that his speech was not characterized by moving eloquence and flamboyant words, but was a simple, straight, almost conversational presentation of the faith and doctrine in which he believes. After all, this is the most impressive mode of eloquence. One can pick out few pointed sentences or polished periods as illustrative of his discourse. The presence of the man and his straightforward utterances held the crowd in rapt attention. The comment next day was: "it was good to have been there." The address covered his usual range of topics in his address to the colored audiences. He repeated his common stock advice upon religion, urging upon the race that it has been too dependent upon vicarious religious succor. Upon this feature of his doctrine I most sincerely disagree with the great commoner. I have expressed the basis of my disagreement on another occasion. It was unfortunate that he was invited to speak in a Christian church. All knew beforehand just what his views were. None could hope that he would refrain from the expressions of his belief merely because of the place in which they were to be presented. He would not be true to his nature and to his mission had he done so, even out of respect for the religious feeling of the vast majority of his hearers. He would no more withhold his honest views on religion out of difference to the feelings of colored people than he would refuse to speak out straight and clear on the race problem out of respect of the sensitiveness of white people. It would have been best had the management secured a secular hall, where there would have been no constraints of any kind. Most of the colored preachers on the following Sunday had something to say about the irreligious feature of the great discourse. They advised their congregations to stick to the old religious moorings which had brought them --- One of the Poorest o smart-looking French officials, Overhead a huge airplane is humming.

Most of it grew out of the inner conscience of the white man; it flowed from his inability to understand the Oriental's conception of life. The Oriental conception of life is, as is well known by instructed persons, a spiritual concept; the Occidental, as we understand it, is purely physical- The antecedent requisite to a state of high spiritual development is permanence; the antecedent requisite to a state of high physical development is constant change. The ideal situation for the Oriental concept is a sedentary one, while the ideal situation for the Occidental concept is a dynamic one.

Mr. Darrow is an Anglo-Saxon with all of the Teutonic fearlessness and dare of his blood. He is wholly impatient with the meekness and submission which all religion teaches as a means of overcoming evil. He looks upon the Negro's cause without an outside eye of pity. He believes in measuring might against might, which may become the race and class which holds all power within its grasp. But where there is want of power, we must resort to patience. Gandhi, in India, in humble submission to British dominion, urges his race to resort to the resistive power of the spirit. He knows that his race cannot measure power with the Englishmen in terms of European standards. Darrow would have no patience with Gandhi. But Gandhi knows his race better even than Darrow knows them. The Negro minister in close contact with the race knows better than a good-natured outsider just how far the race may rely upon its own exertion, and to what extent it must look beyond itself for higher guidance and direction. Mr. Darrow stated that it was only the white morons that were opposed to the colored race. In By EDGAR M. GREY were certain practices which conveyed to the minds of the natives of the East impressions which were accepted by them to carry a symbolic vista of their surroundings and of their lives but which were accepted by the crude mind of the white West- Edgar M. Grey orners as gospel and as represent- sing physical fact. As a result certain practices from the East have come to represent facts of the daily life of the white Occidental, such as hypnotism and other forms of what are termed occultism which have no basis in fact—that is, in any physical phenomenon. With this tradition as an inheritance of the mind we can understand readily how easy it is to influ And as to the women, they would need only the shoes, for all that one can see of them is their kohl-darkened eyes, crimson fingertips, and bare heels, colored with red and black. Of course, not all the native women are thus swathed, but these, my interpreter told me, are not "the good women," which include all Jews and Christians. As to "the color line," one is just three thousand miles away from it. westward as the crow files. Europe, Asia, Africa meet here in one indiscriminate melange, and have been so meeting as far back as history goes. The only present barrier to unions of any kind is the religious one. Readers of Leo Africanus, the famous Negro historian, who was born near here, and of whom I shall speak later, will recall that he accounted for the swarthy color of the people by attributing it to the marriage of "white women and black men" —a period prior to his own time, the sixteenth century. In this must not be included the present European population, the members of which I am told, are secretly hated. It will be recalled that the French took this town by capture in 1907, after a terrific bombardment. As to the faces, again and again I would see a face strongly reminiscent of some colored person at home. But communication was out of the question, unless one spoke Arabic. English, and even French, was so much Dutch to them. The Arab (Moor, Moslem, Berber. Arab are almost interchangeable terms) has a passion for whiteness, not like the American of skin color, but of clothing and buildings. The reason is. no doubt, a hygienic one; the richer Arabs look very clean, but for the poor, which swarm like files. so far as this may be true it brings us little consolation. It is the mentality of the moron that furnishes the best lodging place and breeding ground for race prejudice and hatred. There is no reason to which appeal may be made. When this animosity of race becomes a part of the passion and emotion of the feebler minds, it takes on all but the virus of animal fury. The lynchers are doubtless made up largely of this class. We are still in quest of the remedy for race prejudice, especially when it finds lodgment in the brutish breast of human beings. Let us hope that Mr. Darrow will live for many years to go up and down the land preaching the gospel of human brotherhood which will not balk at the complexion of the skin or the texture of the hair. One cannot escape the reflection that our champion has already reached the mark of three score and ten. In course of nature he must shortly take his leave. There are few, if any, white men of the rising generation making ready to take his place. The allurements of money and the temptations of pleasure are too strong for the spirit of sacrifice to thrive in our day and generation. Let us say the good and pleasant things about him white once the mind of the average Negro in superstitious practices. All over the South, from New Orleans with its "voodooism" to Virginia with its "herb doctors," the colored person is immersed in a mental solution of the rankest kind of superstition. When we take a comprehensive view of the Harlem of today and its population, which has been recruited from all corners of the world of color, we realize that here is concentrated the essence of the collected superstitions of the entire world. Here Oriental taker, Gypsy fortune-teller, West African and West Indian Obeahman, Southern root-doctor, Creole Spanish and French card-reader and white crystal gazer combine into a sailor's-knot of superstition which only education and constant exposure alone may hope to undo. The earliest recollection which we have of the faker in Harlem was the card cutter or reader, as he is generally referred to. Then came the love powder man, who sold powders and phials which would work all sorts of wonders. Then arrived a new and more pretentious sort of fellow who advertised himself as being able to do harm. He could hurt one's enemy, cause him to lose his life, his position, and even his "luck." This latest fellow soon evolved into an out-and-out medicine-man. The earliest of this type that the "3,000 Miles Away From Color Line," He Tells of New Experiences the habit but accentuates the dirt. To what shall I liken the in-describable filth and squolar of the native poor? Perhaps this: go into an American rag shop, take out the dirtiest articles, drag them through, the streets for a week if you like, then patch them up in some sort of shroud to fit the body, and you'll have some idea of the state of the clothing of the majority of the poor. I must insist that I am not exaggerating. For many it is the only garment which, when once put on, is not taken off, but falls off. And the Arab, generally speaking, does not sit on a chair, he squats on the ground. I have seen very, very dirty Negroes in the South; I have seen the squail of the Shoshone Indians, but never before have I seen filthy humanity in such a mass. A democracy of dirt. My guide, who was none too clean himself—I had to be perpetually asking him not to touch me—told me that many had never bathed from birth. Water, as I said, is sold on the streets. Head, leg, eye, and hand sores are common. Scratch, scratch, scratch! When I expressed by wonderment to a friend who had been around the world he said: "It's nothing. You ought to Shanghai." In my next article I will write of some of the customs, about the harems, domestic slavery, Leo Africanus, of conversations I had with some of the Arab merchants, and of the Senussi, the most powerful secret organization in the world.

Black Jews, Blue Germans and "Psychologists" Prey Upon the Negroes Superstitions writer can recall was "Doctor" Phipps, who followed the crowd to Harlem from the "stilties" where he had practiced his lore for many years. Looking over the Evening Sun for the date of February 17, 1999, one comes across the sad story: "Negro, Voodoo-Man Charged With the Death of White Woman." The body of article narrates how Phipps had been recommended to the white woman by her maid. How the white woman had come to No. 10 West 132nd street for treatment for a period of several months, and that she had religiously drunk of the various draughts which she had cooked for her. The late Atry. I. Frank Wheaton put his client in the street but Dr. Phipps was asked by the Justices of the Court to take the next boat back home where he came from. By the year 1911 the Gupstes were calling at each door in Harel left and asking the residents to have their palms read.

Dubus, editor of the Crisis, was one of the representatives of various races and creeds both Oriental and Occidental, that joined in a discussion of "Peace and Brotherhood." at the Brooklyn Jewish Center forum, 667 Eastern parkway, on Monday evening, March 21. Dr. Dubus, speaking on the future of the darker races, asserted that the race problem makes itself one with problems of industrial democracy throughout the world. He cited the troubles in China, East Africa, India, Mexico and in Coffeyville, Kan., where the latest race riots occurred a few days ago, as expressions of the major problem of brotherhood—race prejudice. The meeting was opened with a Meskel meeting, closed in the progressed through addresses by Dr. Dubus, a Hindu poet, a Modernist Methodist presacher, a reformed Jewish rabbi, and a woman brotherhood leader. The meeting closed with a volley of eager questions by an interested Jewish audience.

Rosabelle Merrick Buried From Fleet St. Church Nearly 1,000 people crowded in to Fleet Street A. M. E. Zion Church on Monday evening, March 21, to pay the last tribute of respect to Rosabelle Merrick Johnson, 38 years old, whose funeral services were being held there. Mrs. Johnson, who lived at the Memorial Hospital, died at the Memorial Hospital, New York, after an operation on March 18. She was well known in the downtown section and was the daughter of the late Mrs. Rosabelle Merrick, who for years conducted a large catering business on Columbia Heights, and was active in church and fraternal work. Mrs. Johnson married Mr. Johnson several years after the death of his husband, the late Charles Notts, one of the best known barbers and politicians in Brooklyn. Dr. W. C. Brown, the pastor of the church, delivered the eulogy, paying a high tribute to the life and character of the deceased. He was assisted in the service by the Rev. Edward E. Tyler, pastor of Bridge Street A. M. E. Church. Mrs. Johnson is survived by her husband, two children, father, sister and three brothers. --- --- Mrs. Fisher, born in Philadelphia 32 years ago, was waked to her husband, who first saw the light of day in Lancaster, Pa. 79 years ago, in 1871 at the age of 16 years in the city of Brotherly Love. Fifteen years ago she was stricken with blindness, but still with this unfortunate happening, coming as it did in her declining years, Mrs. Fisher has remained cheerful through it all, and with the exception of not being able to see, is in the best of health and as alert in many respects as a woman 20 years her junior. A pleasing personality and an intelligent conversationist are two of the assets that has kept Mrs. Fisher young at 12. She keeps well posted on present-day topics affecting the race and current events in general through members of the household, who spend a period each day reading the daily papers and other periodicals to her. When a reporter for the Amsterdam News called at the Powell homestead last week to interview the couple, it was discovered that Mr. Fisher had journeyed to delphia to visit a sick brother, but Mrs. Fisher more than made up for his absence. An early start, adhering strictly to the marriage vow "for better or worse"—haaving faith in the Almighty, and a firm belief in the Ten Commandments, is Mrs. Fisher's message to present-day folk, for long and happy matrimonial success. The children of Mr. and Mrs. Fisher, who were either present on their anniversary day or sent telegrams of congratulation were: Mrs. Clinton Powell. Miss Bertaan and Mrs. Ullman Philadelphia.

A. A. C. P. was held on Thursday night, March 24, at the Carlton Avenue Y. M. C. A. The principal speaker was Dr. Horace L. Hamlett of 40 Classon avenue, a graduate of Brooklyn University and one of Brooklyn's dentalists. Dr. Hamlett spoke on "Negro Love." During the course of his address he emphasized the thought that the goal to which we should reach as a group could only be attained by the cultivation of true and slurre love of one Negro for the other. Rev. S. August Jones, associate pastor of Boyle, A. M. E. Zion at the making place, is also a business man of promising also a Howard University graduate, spoke on "The Negro Alms and Aspirations." The chairman, Ellis A. Williams, of 333 Franklin avenue, thanked the speakers for their presence, commented on what was said, urged for great coordination, and the greater feeling of actual brotherly love. In addition the president, Attorney Oliver D. Williams, of 83 Wall street, gave his vote of thanks to the speakers in behalf of the organization. Among those who displayed active interest were Dr. W. R. Granger, Dr. and Mrs. Horace L. Hamlett, Rev. S. August Jones, Miss Lillian Burrell, Miss Anne Reed, Mrs. M. A. Nielsen, Mrs. M. M. Alston, Ellis A. Williams, and Attorney Frederick Douglas and Oliver D. Williams, Mrs. M. N. Alston is secretary. Dr. Ida Mae Mylier Makes Plea for Protection of Our Women Over the men listened to Dr. Ida Mae Myler, the evangelist, as she made a forwent plan for greater respect and protection of colored women by colored men during the course of a special sermon to only at Bridge Street A. M. E. Church, Sunday afternoon, March 27. She spoke on the topic, "God's Measure of a Man." Dr. Myler also asserted that "sin is sin and there should be no double standard of morality." Men should not violate moral and other laws and then condemn women if they do likewise. Dr. Myler further stated that if all fraternal men lived up to their faith and obligations they would be better men, and our women would get a greater degree of protection and respect from men. A number of men at the service went forward and joined the church after this stirring talk by the evangelist. The pastor of the church. Dr. Edward E. Tytler, died the song service and Prof. Frederick A. Bryant presided at the piano. Jamaica Five Hundred Club Celebrate 1st Anniversary The Encoza Girls' Five Hundred Club of Jamaica, L.

Bootleg Prices and Murders Shock Amoah, African Tribal Chief Along the Gold Coast of Africa excellent bonded whisky may be had a plenitude for 'twelve and six' a quart—in good U. S. money about $3.20—while in Prohibition America poisonous booch may only be had at the bootlegger's good graces and at his price. "And they call 'Africa' unlived," was the lament of King Amoah, chief of forty native tribes in western Africa, drawing the deadly parallel of the two countries in his talk last Friday night at the Ashland Place Y. W. C. A. Dressed in his native costume, with its flowing robe of a material resembling cloth of gold beautifully hand-woven. King Amoah is a picturesque character. He speaks with the correctness of an Oxified prose, although he was educated at African schools. He is visiting this country to educate the Negro problem here, but admits he finds America a little more than he bargained for. No Drink Problem. Prohibition, the African king thinks, is something so queer that it is beyond the pale of serious consideration. "Why, in Africa, where we are supposed to be unclevilized, there is no drinking problem like you have had to be said, true, a good many of the Africans now drink, but that is because we were introduced to their whiskey by Englishmen who had come out to civilize us. But there is little if any serious drinking, because it is so easily obtainable and so reasonable. Why the price of what you call booing, liquor staggers me." Mr. Amoh finds other serious situations here that do not exist in "darkest Africa." The young smoking, the problem of the girl's education, Charleston dancing, frightful sex murders, short skirts—all these and more are something he has met here, but is happy he does Musical and Literary Program Benefit at Brown Memorial Church A very unique musical and literary program was presented for the benefit of Brown Memorial Baptist Church, Brooklyn, N.

We have no younger generation problem in Africa. The young people are all well behaved and submissive to their parents. There is no such thing as immorality in Africa. I cannot conceive of a murder at home like that committed here a few days ago." "What about short skirts?" he was asked. "Well, that is hardly a problem," he answered quickly. "There are many native tribes that wear very little clothes. But in the cities where the women is more or less like the English women, the girls wear dresses almost to the ground. I believe." "The Gold Coast of Africa is world famous for its mineral wealth. Its population is 31,900, all Africanans, ruled by forty chiefs, of which Amosu is head." Funeral Services for the Late Rev. C. A.

He attended Atlanta University and Shaw University, and later taught law at the last named college for fourteen years. Many of his students later became nationally prominent, and among the best known is Armand W. Thorne of Washington, who is now rated one of the ablest lawyers in the country. During his last few years of teaching, Mr. Johnson also served as Assistant U. S. District Attorney from the eastern district of North Carolina, a post which he held for nine years.

He made his home in Harlem among his own people and soon became active in civil work. This led to his nomination and election to the Assembly, where he introduced the Civil Rights Bill, which calls for equal accommodations for all races in public places. He also sponsored another bill which made it a criminal offense to discriminate between races in civil service appointments. Author of Fve Books. Mr. Johnson is the author of five books, which have been adopted by the State Board of Education of North Carolina and being used in the schools of that state today. They are, "History of the Negro Race in the World War" and "Negro Soldiers in the Spanish-American War." He has also written a Negro almanac and a history of the Negro in the World War. His best known book, perhaps, is "Light Ahead," which was written in 1898. In this volume Mr. Johnson places a man in an airplane at 59th street and the East River, has dyed as far as Georgia where he falls, and has nursed back to health with the use of violet rays. At that time the airplane and violet ray treatments were practically unheard of, but throughout the book the author predicted their wide use in future years.

Consequently I can't have regular hours for eating and sleeping. I occasionally have indigestion and find it necessary to take a laxative. I had heard of Thedford's BLACK-DRAUGHT Purelu Vegetable for a long time. The drug-gist told me Black-Draught would help me. I bought a package and had it made into tea and take it any time I feel the need of a laxative. It always helps me. I have much better appetites after I take Black-Draught. I can eat about everything I want and feel full of pep. I would not be without it for double the price." Black-Draught can be taken dry or made into a tea, as you prefer. Either way, it costs only one cent a dose. Dr. Polk's Dental Talks OUR AIM We are engaged in the practice of dentistry.

Parents Upheld in Toms River Parents Upheld in Toms River Eugene R. Hayne, representing the twenty-three families who refused to send their children to a separate classroom in a ramshackle church, won a complete victory over the public school authorities in the Ocean County Court here at Toms River last Wednesday. Judge Newman in declaring them not guilty of violance gave what amounts to his personal endorsement to their fight against segregation. School officials and members of the Dover Board of Education made it plain that they do not intend to give up until forced to. This attitude was expressed after the Court's decision was known. With that statement in mind one can not be certain that the thirty children evicted on Feb. 11 would return to the modern school building without further trouble. Mr. Hayne, who comes from Aubury Park, in an effort to force the school authorities to allow the return of the students, has obtained a writ of mandamus in the Supreme Court at Trenton. The writ is returnable on April 6 and would require the school authorities to show cause why they should refuse to admit the thirty children to the school. When the eviction came, twenty-five of the thirty students were kept at home by their parents. Five, for various and sundry reasons, continued until last Friday, when the parents of four decided to join the fight against segregation. On March 22 the last straggler quit, closing the school. In an attempt to evade the issue, Howard Ewert, attorney for the Board of Education, sought to have the allegation that the parents had violated the attendance laws and should be compelled to send their children to school. With apparent disdain for useless bickering Judge Newman began to ask questions until he found out about the establishment of the separate class and had heard Hayne describe the little church as "a hovel, not a school, where the health of these children is in danger." Judge Newman rendered his decision as follows: "These people sent their children to school as long as they were in the school with other children. It was when the Board of Education said to them 'Now, you cannot send your children to our school; you must send them to this one we have provided for you—it was then they protested. RECEPTION TENDERED REV. R. G. WATERS The congregation of Thirkield M. E. Church and many friends gathered in the church Monday evening to express appreciation of the work done by the energetic pastor the Rev. Dr. Waters, and his family.

The church has shown remarkable growth in departments and in membership. The valuable church property is steadily dropping its mortgage.

Sample was chairman of the entertainment committee. The Stewards' Board of Thirkield M. E. Church gave a dinner in the building Tuesday evening. Mrs. M. P.

It is reprinted below in full: PHOTOS IN NEWS RESTORE WAIFS TO 2 MOTHERS Two baby faces smiling from the pages of THE NEWS rekindled mother love in two hearts, and as a result two mothers have reclaimed their abandoned children from the foundling ward at Bellevue Hospital, it was learned yesterday. A week ago this paper published a photo of Loretta Carlton, white waif, being cheered in the foundling ward by a two-year-old colored boy. The next day Mrs. Mary Carlton, mother of Loretta, appeared at the institution and claimed the child. She said she had put the baby in a boarding home. When she couldn't keep up the payments the proprietor turned the infant over to police. Mrs. Carlton was followed a few days later by Mrs. Rose Austin, colored, of 258 7th ave, who told the hospital authorities she had left her boy with a friend to board, but had been taken sick and had been unable to keep up the payments. The friend travel with the added advantage of summer school work in history with college credit given through the Hampton Institute Summer School, will, according to Dr. Gregg, sail from New York on May 26 via Hamburg-American Line. Hampton Institute, it was stated, is responsible for the selection of the party and for the educational program, and is in no way interested in the work of which have been placed in the hands of a management experienced in arranging student travel trips abroad.

When Mrs. Austin came for him a blanket of gloom was cast over the ward. Then the physicians convinced her that she should leave Arthur there for a month or more to be treated for bone trouble, and the ward grew cheerful again. OTHER DAILY NEWSPAPERS, seeing the phenomenal success of the Daily News, have sought to modify the discrimination they practiced in their news and editorial columns so as to get their share of circulation in Harlem, but not, however, until the News had blazed the way and convinced them that it pays in circulation and goodwill, and in satisfied advertising clients, to be fair to all, regardless of race.

Dear Sir, I am writing to you in reference to the article in this week's issue, by Charles Magill, on the need of social workers in the various courts. Since I occupy a position in the court I can readily see how well he has touched a vital subject and can testify to the truthfulness of his statements. I hope that everybody will read the article, and that it may be the means of bringing about a remedy. At least the article lets the people know what is needed, and that you own success.

Edgar M. Grey's Article Edgar M. Grey's Article Continued From Feature Pages a colored gentleman had been robbed by one of these Gypsies in his apartment while he was having his palms read. Then a few broken-down white women, depending on the general charm that a white face and straight hair have on the Negro, imbued the Black City and by 1815, who wished witches, with quite a large cadre. By the time of the World War, the West Indian who had been fooling the ignorant Latines in the "Spanish Main" arrived with the latest technique in the art of selling "knowledge of the future and of the past" to the colored people of Harlem. lishment, and it largest inconceivable Uncle Sam for the year 1926. During the year the Gypsies done by the grof of the Africans, were called "who on nearly every day The upon the ordinal police protection their husbands a rious to Harlem in their nefarious have, with the a store, moved out now, but, m During the World War, with the disturbance of the mental balance of the Harlem Negro, in accordance with every other American, the "harpies" saw the chance to saddle the accumulated practices of their dlove upon Harlem's "children of faith." The Jewish druggists, realizing the high-tide which the trade should reach with scientific handling, lent their stores and their brain to the acquisition of the latest forms of fakery. By the year 1917 the political radicals and other reformers had made street speaking popular and to a degree informative. The medicine "fakers" seeing this as a new and more direct method of reaching the masses reached on the shelves of the drug stores and brought forward in full tilt their phials and potions. This new form of selling poison or fake medicine to the black yokels rose to its highest point during the Garvey dominance, for the reason that the mochs had been trained by the street speakers—Garveyites and non-Garveyites—to have faith in the corner hawker. As a result, the West Indians and Southerners who could possibly simulate the appearance of Orientalists—East Indians, Mohammedians etc.—soon changed their birthplaces and tangled their tongues enough to deceive the black Harlemite. With the rise of Garvey a new faith in the powers and mysticists of Africa also rose. At first these pseudo-Africans said they belonged to the royalty of the black mother continent, direct descendants of the aged bush doctors of the land of our fathers. Several of these spring from the Garvey movement directly; others came from the wharves and docks of Brooklyn's waterfront. It is remarkable how they systematized their practice. They began to advertise in the colored press; they went into the churches and paid their respects to the pastors; they even joined political clubs, although they had not the right nor the qualifications for voting, and in order to be most impressive, they engaged spacious and well appointed apartments. They employed local girls as clerks and stenographers and made a bid for the more high class daughters of Hunt. They sought the trade of the wives, sweethearts and women relations of the business and professional map. In addition they affected the garbs of the Oriental and African, and placed superstition on a higher plane. They assumed high-sounding names and titles; sometimes going so far as to use the terms doctor and professor. They rode about in high-powered automobiles and plunged headlong into the game of fooling the so-called civilized and Western Nerro. The most well-known of those called himself "Hiff-Wrong," he was given a jail sentence in 1922. Newly in prosecution was actor Lung-Negro. He is being sued by a white woman in Liverpool, England, who told Magistrate McQuade in June, 1928, that he had married her in that city some years ago and had deserted her. Perhaps the most remarkable and at the same time the most successful and level-headed of these fakers and voodoo-men is Professor "Blue German." This fellow, who can hardly read or write his name, came to Harlem from the South. He was hardly in the Garvey movement a minute when he fell out with the "boss" and had to shift for himself. In less than a month after the break, he had amassed enough money to acquire a moving troupe and to keep his camp meetings in various sections of Jersey City. By 1921 he had purchased a private house on one of the blocks of the upper "Thiries" and was the proud possessor of the finest string of automobiles that any one man sported in Negro Harlem. Now this "Blue German" has a paying mail-order business in wares. Glance at a piece of his literature and note the queer-sounding words. On his list of medicines and potions the following items appear: Herb tonics, $3 per bottle; love svenga your husband home pills, $5 per meal; conkie marium leaves tonic, $10; and keep your job roots, $100. "Blue German" employs five persons in his office, is connected with a printing estab- lishment, and is one of the largest income-tax payers. He paid Uncle Sam taxes on $17,000 for the year 1326. During the years 1522 and 1524 the Gypsies, not to be outdone by the growing popularity of the Africans, established what were called "ships of astrology" on nearly every corner in Harlem. They did more; they did not rely upon the ordinary processes of police protection, they imported their husbands and male relations to Harlem to protect them from nefarious trade. They have, with little store, moved out of the neighborhood now, but, may be seen each day making their rounds in and out of apartment houses. As was to be expected the sharpest in the community would not permit such a golden opportunity to pass; for as is well known, the easiest instrument for victimizing the poor and the ignorant is a religious instrument. So several of the expert takers organized new sects. Among these, and perhaps the most sordid, was that of the so-called "black Jews." All sorts of wicked practices were developed and made a part of the rituals of this abominable group. The chief victim from the four ends of the world. They induced the lowest types of women to come into their mysterious fold, and after operating for nearly ten years unmolested, the United States Government had to intervene in order to save the lives and the morals of the small children caught in the net. They established a monastery on one of the streets of the upper "Thirties" and indulged in the most vulgar practices. Each person who entered this haven of fakery was required to give over his wife to the leaders as the common property of the head men. They are still trying to stage a comeback, but the Government keeps careful watch over them. There was another sect of "black Jews" which broke from the Garvey movement under the leadership of a smooth and clever faker, calling himself a Rabbit. His claim to Jewry is not unlike that of a clever burglar who gets his hands upon some one else's property. His followers are made up mostly from the most backward type of women and men in the Negro race, coming for the most part from the troopers. Here in Harlem along with these are the fake, lots vendor; the fake employment agent; the fake doctor, and lastly, the most incredible of the lot, the so-called "Psychologists." Some day we hope to be rid of all of them.

Crusaders Insurance Company Launched CLEVELAND, March 28.-Desire of colored citizens of this city to see to it that confidence in enterprises owned and operated by members of their race is maintained was definitely demonstrated a few days ago when a group went to the rescue of the Hope Aid and Relief Association, following its being placed in the hands of a receiver by the State Insurance Department. Hended by Herbert S. Chauncey, president of the Empire Savings and Loan Company, and Atty. Norman L. McGhee, the group set to work upon plans to avert any loss. As a result of their efforts, a new company, the Crusaders Mutual Insurance Company, was formed and charter and license obtained from the State of Ohio. A bond in the sum of $100,000 was posted with the Department of Insurance to further assure the protection of policyholders. Science Body Honors Dr. Thomas W. Turner Dr. Thomas W.

Got $79,198.89 in 1926 Spent $78,834.27; $22, 577.46 Came From Legal Defense Fund The Annual Report for 1926 of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People shows receipts for the year of $79,198,89, and total expenditures from all funds and for all purposes of $78,834.27. The financial report, which is audited by W. C. Heaton and Company, is published on public account on 25 West Fortune street, gives a detailed picture of the operations of the Association during the year. The total income to the General Fund of the Association for the year 1926 was $44,344.25, a sharp decline from the $61,510.83 contributed to the General Fund in the preceding year. This is accounted for by the fact that many contributions which would normally have gone to the General Fund went instead to the Legal Defense Fund, to which $42,251.51 was contributed from 1925, and with balance from 1925, and after penditure during 1926 of $22,577.46 the Legal Defense Fund showed a balance on December 31, 1926, of $27,571.62. This is a trust fund which can be used only for legal cases involving race discrimination. The Anti-Lynching Fund of the N. A. A. C. P. disbursed $1,005.71 during 1826, leaving a balance of $1,323.42. The entire financial audit of the N. A. A. C. P. is being published in The Crisis. California led all the States in contributions to the National office during 1826 for the second consecutive year, and the leading branch was Los Angeles, which contributed a total of $3,777.20, of which $3,576.20 was paid on an apportionment of $1,000. Favors Higher Law Standards Former Assistant U. S. Attorney Favors Two Years in College for Students In a communication addressed to the Committee on Legal Education of the Bar Association, James C. Thomas Jr., former U. S. Attorney for the Southern New York District, urges that the educational requirements be raised for those who plan to enter the legal profession. "I believe that the educational requirements should be raised before one be accepted in a law school for the purpose of perfecting himself for admission to the Bar." Mr. Thomas wrote, and continued: "Most of the Negro members of the Bar of this State to whom I have spoken have unqualifiedly stated that a college degree should be required. While I do not go that far, I do think that one who holds himself out to give counsel or advice as to the legal aspect of judicial controversies or their preparation and management, and applies that knowledge to conduct of trials, should be better equipped educationally than youngster just leaving a preparatory school. "It would appear that a college course for at least two years prior to the applicant's admission to a law school would be more satisfactory than the requirements as they stand today." "I, for one, would not lend myself to any propaganda that might mitigate against the interest of the poor boy, and particularly a poor Negro boy, who seeks to enter into the profession of the law. There may be some isolated cases where a boy may be denied an opportunity to enter into this complicated law, but the if the boy desires to the law, but a member of the legal profession he can find ample opportunity to properly equip himself before entering into the study of the law." Keeping Fit By E. Elliott Rawlins, M.D. HAPPY is the man or woman who is free from headache. Such a person is rare, for headache is a prevalent illness. To avoid a headache it is necessary to know its cause. There are two classes of headaches. There are extracranial and intracranial. The former originates from without the skull, the latter within the skull. Extracranial headache may occur from disturbances of eye, ear, nose, throat, teeth, jaw, muscles of the skull. These structures should always be considered in cases of headache to ascertain whether they are inflamed, infected or in any way disturbed. air or become overheated. This form of headache is probably due to some intracranial congestion. Headaches occur also in some people after severe coughing spells. Those who have Intracranial headaches are subdivided into reflectory, circulatory and toxic headaches. A reflectory headache has its origin in a disturbance outside of the skull, such as an eyestrain, unerupted wisdom teeth, stomach excess acidity or constipation; in these cases the pain is reflected through the nerves to the brain within the skull, in the same way that electricity runs along a wire from the generalizing plant to some distant point. Circulatory headaches occur in some people if they breathe had MUSIC Monroe's Harmonizers, a male quartet, will present a program of spirituals, plantation songs and other native melodies at WGBS, Gimbel Brothers, New York, Thursday evening.

ROSENWALD FUND TO BUILD 20 SCHOOLS (Preston News Service.) MEMPHIS. Tenn. March—Shelby County is to be given financial assistance by the Julius Roswald fund in the building of twenty additional Negro schools. Alfred K. Stern, executive director, declared Wednesday, after a tour of the county in company with the U.S. Department county superintendent of education. S. L. Smith, general field agent for the fund, and Fred McCuistion of Little Rock, agent for rural schools of the general education board, also accompanied Miss Powers and Mr. Stern. Southern Paper Praises Negro Achievements LITTLE ROCK, Ark., March.—"The Daily News" of this city, in a remarkable editorial, comments on the fact that Negroes of Little Rock, without asking any financial aid from white citizens, are to erect at a cost of $25,000, the first unit of a $175,000 Y. M. G. A. building. "The Negroes of Little Rock are lifting themselves up," says the editorial. "We people of the South are too prone to think of the Negro in terms of the latest lynching. We often measure him by the man who mows our yards and who performs the mental tasks of the Negro." "It is quite possible we are not cognizant of the amazing strides the race itself is taking right here in our midst for its own advancement." air or become overheated. This form of headache is probably due to some intracranial congestion. Headache occur also in some people after severe cough spells. Those who have such headaches always notice an increase of head pain when they stoop down with the head low. They may have a nose bleed; if they do the headache is relieved. Toxic headaches are frequently due to the free use of alcohol, nicotine (tobacco), coffee, tea. Some people have a toxic headache due to taking certain medicines, such as iron, strychnine, iodine. This is an idiosyncrasy. Focal infections, with pus in some part, such as in the tonsils, bile ducts, intestines, may often cause headache. There are certain severe diseases, such as kidney disease and diabetes, a toxic headache of a severe form may occur and foretell the upcoming of the complete insufficiency of kidney function or the approach of diabetic coma. There is a form of toxic headache known to the layman as "billious headache." This term has no scientific standing. This form of headache in some cases is due to improper digestion of certain food. This may be an idiosyncrasy. In others there is a chronic putrefaction or fermentation in the intestines due to lessened stomach and intestinal feces. There is also a form of headache which is known as migraine. This is an intracranial headache, due to a dysfunction of the pituitary gland situated in the brain. This gland is one of the endocrine or ductless glands and is intimately connected with the thyroid gland in the neck, the sax glands, and the sympathetic nervous system. A migraine headache increases in frequency and intensity in proportion to factors which call for pituitary function, such as muscular and mental overexertion, sleeplessness and emotional strain. The pressure of modern civilization is a sum total of overexertion, sleeplessness and emotional strain; thus the vitality is lowered and food toxic poison of improper digestion and assimilation absorbed into the blood cells that attack the cells of the brain. The result is "billions" headache, or migraine. To treat or prevent headache, the cause must be eliminated. Our Eyes By Dr. R. J. Foster Don't Rub Your Eyes WHY do you do it? Has anybody ever told you it is harmful? You rub them because they itch, burn, feel sticky or are otherwise uncomfortable. This may make it clear to you why rubbing is bad for them. First, your hands are not clean, and that alone is sufficient to keep your fingers from these precious organs. Discomfort in the eyes or lids is almost invariably due to congestion. That is, there is too much blood in them. To rub the eyes is to increase the blood supply. In the winter, when your ears or hands are cold, you rub them to improve the circulation. That means you want more blood into those parts. For the same reason rubbing your eyes will cause more blood to rush to tissues which are already overcrowded with blood, and you wonder why your eyes are red and inflamed. The common cause for congestion is overuse or improper use of the eyes. Reading, sewing or embroidering too long or by bad light will cause congestion; and so will working over hot stoves in dust and smoke, or staying at the mories too long. Dame Nature is very kind to you and will permit almost unlimited use of the eyes, provided they are normal as to sight and the body is in normal general health; but if you are unhinged her she will give you a terrible slap. If your eyes itch or burn or give signs of congestion, see what is wrong with them. It is possible glasses will help in those modern times that should be no hesitation and wearing glasses. If they are needed. Your eyes in cold water and then end out why you are having trouble.
