Kicked Out; Man Returns and Shoots Rival THEATRE ROBBED DURING SHOW FORMER MANAGER OF LINCOLN PLAY HOUSE ACQUITTED Raymond Snyder, White, Cashier and Ticket Taker Found Not Guilty of Larceny in Special Sessions Court "Not guilty and discharged" was the verdict rendered Monday in Special Sessions, Part VI, in favor of Raymond Snyder, 38, white, former manager of the Lincoln Theatre, 58 West 135th street, and Elsie Sequira, 27, and Flossie Burney, 28, both of 80 St. Nicholas place, former cashier and ticket taker, respectively, who were all charged with larceny of money from the theatre box office by the resale of tickets on complaint of Maria C. Downs, white, 40 East Fifty-fourth street, owner of the theatre. Judge Max Salmon, who presided, pronounced the decision upon the recommendation of Assistant District Attorney Alexander who stated that he found no evidence that any crime had been committed. Attorney Bennett E. Slegisstein, 99 Nassau street, famous for capital punishment, represented the defendants. Ex-Judge Talley of General Sessions appeared as counsel for Mrs. Downs. Grill Elsie Sequira Apparently foreseeing defeat on Monday, Mrs. Downs Helf Mrs. Sequira rearrested Friday on the same charge on a warrant signed by City Magistrate McAdoo and executed by Detective Klein of Inspector Ryan's staff. From 9 o'clock Friday night until 10 o'clock Saturday morning the former cashier was submitted to a pitless and most severe grilling, it is reported, to force her to a confession of the charge. Post Office Clerk Dies of Pneumonia H. C. Hill Had Also Served Twenty-one Years in Navy Henry C. Hill, 45, 402 West 150th street, succumbed from pneumonia on Thursday, following a short illness of nine days, during which he was confined to his deathbed. Funeral services were held Saturday at the Duncan Brothers and When the torture of this allegedly brutal cross-examination ended the lovely brown complexion of Mrs. Sequira had turned a deathly white due to nervous exhaustion. Nevertheless, Mrs. Sequira stoutly maintained her innocence throughout the deed. On Saturday morning Mrs. Sequira was arraigned in Heights Court before Magistrate McKinney in the jarceny charge and was released on $2,500 bond for a further mourning today. Peter Burney, 77 West 134th street, was surely on the bond. Mrs. Downs Sues for $5,000 The Court of Special Sessions was informed by the defense that the jarceny charge had been brought against the defendants by Mrs. Downs in an effort to weaken or nullify a suit for $5,000 brought against her by Mr. Snyder, who concludes that Mrs. Downs owed him that amount of money up to the day Oct. 21 when Mrs. Downs discharged him from the theatre and caused his arrest. The specific charge against the former manager, cashier and ticket taker grew out of an investigation by William F. Hartery, white, 1769 Yyse avenue, the ironx, a private detective hired by Mrs. Downs, and who testified that he had been sold the same two admission tickets twice when he attended a show at the Lincoln Theatre on June 18. Prior to this date Mr. Snyder entered audit against Mrs. Downs to recover $2,000 which he said was due him for funds expended in financing various stage productions at the Lineco between May 1 and October 1, 1959. When Mrs. Downs discharged Mr. Snyder he asked her for certain important papers in her safe that would show their financial standing. (Continued on Page 4.)

Charles C. Johnson, 24, 145 West 127th street, was held in $25,000 bail for a further hearing. The arrest of Johnson followed a complaint made by Frank Naccarato, white, owner of an alleged "speakeasy" at 329 Lenox avenue, that two men, one of them a policeman attached to the West 135th street station, had extorted $25 from him at the point of a revolver, after one of the men had represented himself as being a revenue agent.

Funeral services were held Saturday at the Duncan Brothers' undertaking parlors, 2303 Seventh avenue, after which the body was interred at the National Cemetery. Mr. Hill was in the naval service for twenty-one years, seeing considerable overseas duty until his resignation five years ago. Later he re-entered the Government service as a post-office clerk, and was attached to the Wall street station until the time of his death. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Cisley H.

After making his complaint the matter was brought to the attention of Deputy Police Commissioner Felix Muldoom. He summoned the policemen from the West 135th street station to Police Headquarters. They were placed in a liaison and Nacarate, who was summoned, picked out Policeman Charles E. Lockier of the West 135th street station as the one who had accompanied the "fake" revenue agent who extorted the $25 from him. This occurred on January 30. Nacarate, however, exonerated the policeman, saying he did not overhear the conversation between him and the "revenue agent" and (Continued on Page 4.)

Scott Opposes Transfer Of Recorder's Office WASHINGTON, D. C., March 5. Representative Frederick N. Zihlman. Republican, of Maryland, was asked last Saturday by Eimett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, to have the House District Committee to order public hearings on his bill to transfer the office of the recorder of deeds to the government of the District of Columbia. In his letter to Representative Zihlman, Dr. Scott expressed opposition to the bill on the ground that the transfer of the office to the District government would lessen the possibilities for employment of Negroes in the Government service. The office of recorder of deeds, Dr. Scott stated, is the only one in the District of Columbia in which colored people have "even a half show in anything approaching recognition and fairness in the way of Government employment."

Gen. Sherburne Quits American Legion Brigadier General John H. Shorburne, former commander of artillery units in France, recently announced his resignation from the "40 and 8," an honorary society of the American Legion, in protest against their excluding Negroes from membership. Gen. Shorburne's announcement of his resignation was made at the annual meeting, in Ford Hall, at the Boston branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 7, 1928 CHAIN STORES REAP HARVEST BUT DRAW LINE Recent Survey Shows That Out of 85 Thriving Enterprises, Located Between 124th and 145th Streets Less Than 12 Negroes Are Employed According to the Statistical Department of the Negro League for Equal Political and Civic Rights, a business of $100,000 per month is done by 85 chain stores, located within the boundary of 124th and 1451th streets, yet they employ in all less than a dozen Negroes in any capacity. Of this sum, the department estimates 98 per cent is the money of Negroes. The chain stores listed were as follows: Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co. 30 stores; James Butler, 19; Daniel Reeves, 10; Openheimer, 7; Sheffield Farms, 3; Grand Union Stores, 3; Atlas, 1; United Cigars, 0; Cushman, 3. In the League's announcement, they say that the Daniel Reeves Company is the only one that employs a Negro in a position of responsibility, that company having made one of their four colored clerks a store manager, in one of the ten stores which they conduct in Harlem. In contrast to the Daniel Reeves Company, the League claims that the Atlantic and Pacific Ten Company, which maintains thirty stores in Harlem, the largest number by far of all the chain stores, employs but four Negro clerks, none of whom is a manager, though one is the highest salaried grocery clerk in this community, who, for some unknown reason, has never been advanced to a management. Business with the A. & P. seems to be very encouraging. During the past six months they have opened three new stores on Lenox avenue, and they now maintain a store on every block on that avenue. The survey made by the League continues to show that, while some of these chain stores employ Negro clerks, the door for advancement is absolutely closed against them, and some, notably the United Cigar Store Company, do not employ a Negro in any capacity. Menials were not included in the survey. Concluding, the statistical department says that a yearly business is done by the white chain stores of $4,000,000, nearly every cent of which comes from the pockets of Negroes of Harlem. It is to correct that -condition, whereby the money of colored people is gladly taken in trade, but their services as employees is not wanted, that the Negro League for Equal Political and Civic Rights was formed and is now working, say the members of that organization. And They Killed Abraham Lincoln WASHINGTON, D. C., March 5. Senator Coleman L. Blease, Democrat, of South Carolina, last Thursday offered an amendment to his bill requiring separate accommodations for white and colored passengers on street cars in the District of Columbia. The proposed amendment provides that in case a white person desires to ride with a colored person and the latter does not object, the white person upon request may be allowed by the person in charge of the car to ride with the colored person. The Blease separate street car bill has been unfavorably reported to the Senate by the District Committee. PATROLMAN BRASSARD · RESTORED TO DUTY Artemus Brassard, a white patrolman of the West 135th street station, who was suspended from Feb. 2 to 9 by Police Commissioner Joseph Warren, has been restored to duty following his exoneration of the charges against him. The commissioner has also ordered that Brassard be paid in full for time of his suspension.

Jealousy Caused Near-Tragedy When Repulsed Downtown Lover Returns Jeaousy and liquor, the police say, combined to cause a near-tragedy about 1:30 p.m. Monday, when Archie Parker, 39, 109 West 129th street, is said to have shot and nearly killed John Lockhart, 423 West Fifty-third street. Lockhart, it is reported, was visiting Parker's former sweetheart at the 129th street address when the shooting occurred. Parker escaped. Both on Receiving End of Iron Pipe Counter-charges of felonious assault against each other were brought in Heights Court Monday before Magistrate Farrell by George Fellerston, 34, 129 West 131st street, and Leo Pennington, 29, 21 West 136th street. Each accuses the other of hitting him with an iron pipe during a terrific encounter between them following an altercation in the hallway of 30 West 136th street. Fellerston, who wear's glasses, charges his opponent with striking him in the left eye and that part of shattered lens has endangered his sight. Therefore, no ball was fixed upon Pennington, who was held for trial by the Grand Jury. Pennington charges that Fellerston caused six stitches to be taken in the back of his head. Ball upon Fellerston was set at $1,000 for trial by the Grand Jury. Both men were treated at Harlem Hospital] and arrested by Detective Connelly of the West 135th street station.

Parker followed and, as the two man reached the doorway, three shots were fired into Lockhart's body; one bullet striking him in the hip and two in the stomach. Miss Wormley screamed and ran into a (Continued on Page 4.) LOANS On 1st, 2nd, 3rd Mortgages, Contracts, Wills, Estates, and other good securities. J. H. FRANK 258 EAST 188D ST. Near Thur.

A motorcar was used for the getaway. The robbery consumed about ten minutes, during which time over a thousand patrons, including two policemen, who sat in the back seats, witnessed a photodrama, entirely oblivious to the real-life drama being enacted behind them. Another uniformed policeman was patrolling in front of the theatre outside.

Defendant—I started the fire myself, your Honor, so as to appear vigilant in the eyes of my employers and perhaps merit continued employment. It was thus that Frank Hicklen, 430 Chester street, Brooklyn, charged with arson in the second degree, explained to Judge Donnellan in Part I of General Sessions Court Friday morning the reason why he started a fire in the Hotel Plaza, Fifty-ninth street and Fifth avenue, on the night of January 29 while employed there as a watchman. His declaration created an uproar in the court. After it had subsided, Judge Donnellan suspended sentence and placed Hicklen on probation for five years.

Wife Informed Police Husband Had Gun Seeing a man and woman fighting in front of their home at 207 West 134th street recently, Patrolman Fitzgerald of the West 135th street station hastened to learn the cause. He learned that the combatants were Horace Hunt and his wife Laura. Mrs. Hunt told the policeman that her husband had a gun and threatened to kill her. In the meantime Hunt ran into the house and Patrolman Fitzgerald followed and saw him put the gun under the cushion in a chair, it is said. The weapon was procured and Hunt was arrested and arraigned in Heights Court before Majestate Simpson, who hold him in $1,000 bail for Special Sessions on a char 20 PAGES—5 CENTS PER COP SHOW ITS FORCE BETTE STAFF O OPEN SAFI , Including Two Policemen, Wit- ance at Time of Robbery — Stationed Outside Theatre advanced type, very calmly and ef- white "gentlemen" stick-up men, oc- hursday night in the business office 2227 Seventh avenue, where $700 in silver and $19 in pennies, was taken of revolvers after Bernard Burtt, Ethel Carrington, the cashier, had motorcar was used for the getaway, ed about ten minutes, during which trons, including two policemen, who sessed a photodrama, entirely oblivious being enacted behind them. Another popping in front of the theatre out- Warning their victims, which also included Albert Jackson, the night watchman, 163 West 133d street, and Calvin Warren, an employee, 206 West 129th street, not to move for ten minutes, the three well-dressed thieves slipped swiftly and quietly from the office and escaped into the south side alley from a side door. The instant the bandits left the office, Burtt slammed and locked the door and Miss Carrington gave an alarm, but it was too late. Both Burtt and Frank Schiffman, the business manager, concur in the opinion that the robbery was very carefully planned. A few moments before the robbery Irvin C. Miller, manager of the show playing at the Lafayette last week, had drawn the company's mid-weekly salary of about $800. The unknown highwaymen are said to have entered the theatre by purchasing admission tickets earlier in the evening. At 11:20 p. m., while Manager Burtt was alone in the business office, two men, immediately dressed, entered with drawn guns and said to Burtt: "Put 'em up and shut up!" A third man stood as a look-out just outside the office door. After searching Burtt and taking $2 they commanded him to open the safe "damm quick," while Bandit No. 1, who seemed to be the leader, placed his gun in his side pocket and prodded Burtt in the ribs with the muzzle of it. Bandit No. 2 seemed extremely nervous and his gun shook in his hand. At this point young Warren came in past the sentry outside the door and was immediately ushered in by Bandit No. 2, who showed him over in the corner of the small office. Then Jackson came in, to get change for $5, which was promptly taken from him by Bandit No. 2, who ordered him into the corner, also. At this point Manager Schiffman telephoned Burtt from the back-stage office and Bandit No. 2 answered and hung up. Prodding Burtt sharply in the ribs again, Bandit No. 1 said to him: "If you don't open that safe by the time I count ten I'll blow your damned brains out!" While the thief counted Burtt managed to open the first (Continued on Page 4.)

BAYNARD WHITNEY A gigantic plan for ten six-story, 160 per cent co-operative, modern and exclusive apartments, to be built in the best residential sections of Harlem, nine of these to be named after great men of the Negro race, was announced Friday in an interview with Paul P. Travers, white, organizer of the Bonnar Construction Corporation, owners of Lincoln Mansion, Inc., 166 West 125th street. Reliable applicants are being sought to purchase stock in Lincoln Mansion, which will be the first of the ten co-operative apartments and which is to be erected at 44-46 Convent avenue, between 129th and 130th streets, and next to the Female Academy of the Sacred Heart, in a white neighborhood. The site of the property is owned by the organizer's wife, Bertha Travers, who is president of the Bonmar Construction Company. Her husband is secretary. According to Mr. Travers, one thousand persons have applied for stock in Lincoln Mansion, but only eleven applications have been accepted for consideration. No contracts have been signed yet, he said. When completed, Lincoln Mansion will contain fifty two and three-room apartments, plans for which have been submitted to the State Department, Mr. Travers said. Apartments may be selected from the blueprints and purchased at prices ranging from $2,000 to $4,300. Two roof suites of three rooms each are priced at $4,450 aplece. The terms of purchase, Mr. Travers said, are $500 down and the balance payable in 10 months. The purchaser of a $3,000 apartment, for instance, would pay $500 down and $5 a month for eight years and four months. Mr. Travers announced that the building will be completed next October. No deed or title will be given to an apartment owner but, rather, will the tenants own Lincoln Mansion collectively as a corporation upon full payment of the purchase SAVE AT DAVEGA ATWATER KENT ELECTRIC A.C. set IN A KNICKERBOCKER CONSOLE $134.50 COMPLETE Nothing Else to Buy HERE'S WHAT YOU GET!

A board of directors elected by the tenantowners from among themselves will then take over the Mansion's affairs, but until that time arrives the organizer will remain the owner, Mr. Travers stated. Irrespective of the price paid for an apartment, the tenant-owner will be entitled to only one vote in the affairs of the corporation. (It appears, according to the prospectus, that the original plan was to have the prospective tenant-owners complete their payments on apartments and receive their stock by the time there shall have been issued the final certificate from the Tenement House Department.) After 100 months, if the apartment is paid for, the tenant may sign a 99-year lease. In the meantime, he must pay his share of the maintenance and amortization, or paying off, of the mortgages of $165,000. The equity represented in stock (i.e., the total cash price of the fifty apartments) is $172,000, making the total cost of the purchase of land and building $337,000. At the present time there is a $32,000 mortgage on the present property and the Blowery & East River National Bank, 1451 Broadway, is named as holder in escrow. In all probability the purchaser's money will also be deposited in this institution. The monthly amortization will be approximately $275, it is said, and the monthly maintenance, including a superintendent (with basement apartment), will be $1,622.10, it is estimated, making a total of $1, $97.10. The price of the apartment governs the percentage that each of the fifty tenants will have to pay toward the monthly expenses, including amortization. The approximate amortization and maintenance of a three-room apartment will be $33.10. For the first 100 months $25 would have to be added, this being the amount due each month on the purchase price, or a total of $58.10. The organizer compares the monthly figure of $33.10 with the approximate commercial monthly rent value of $65 and points out an approximate monthly saving of $31.90. In the contract for the purchase of stock it is stated that a tenant-owner may sell or transfer or sublet his apartment at any time subject to the approval by the board of directors as to the prospective tenant-owner or sub-lessee, said Mr. Travers. Death and Tiness Provided For Mr. Travers explained that, in case of sickness of the purchasing tenant, the payments on his purchase are suspended for that period. His payments on expenses must, however, be continued. It was stated further that, in case of the death of the purchaser at any time after the first payment of $500 on an apartment, the balance due will be cancelled and a receipt in full for the balance will be given to the heirs or assigns of the deceased. The owners then will only have to pay the maintenance and amortization expenses each month. Sickness and life insurance taken out upon the purchaser by the organizer will make these arrangements possible, said Mr. Travers. Modern and Exclusive Acceptance of applicants for tenant-ownership in Lincoln Mansion "will be restricted to men and women whose standards and habits are those of refined life." "The names of the first twenty-five applicants who meet our approval will be submitted to each other for the purpose of obtaining a harmonious group," said Mr. Travers. "Then these persons will thereafter pass upon all future applicants. Our aim is to make Lincoln Mansion a residence of homes." The architects for Lincoln Mansion are Turner & Bowden, 15 East Fortieth street, who were associate architects on the Franklin Memorial Tower. The facade of the new structure will be of rough-face brick, with limestone treatment at the first story and belt courses and cornice of terra-cotta, with inserts of colored tile in the Lombard-Italian style. The court is to be developed with a center fountain and attractive shrubbery. One will enter through a spacious foyer, with tiled floor and beamed ceiling, and on through a vaulted passage to the court. Twenty-four-hour elevator service, with two automatic push-button elevators, will be a special feature, it is planned. In the base mount a clubroom, laundry and auditorium will be provided and the superintendent will have his quarters there, also. A handball court and a garden will be located on the roof, Mr Travers said, and the roof suites will have their own private torrace Electric fixtures and steam radiators with control valves will be provided, and brass pipes in main risers and branches for hot and cold water are also specified in the NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS: WEDNESDAY, MARCH 7, 1928 Proposed Lincoln Mansion MILTON Alterations Being Made to Better Accommodate Our Patrons.

Floors will generally be of oak, while the kitchen floors will be covered with linoleum. There will be ample closet space and one closet in each room will be cedar-lined, the plans show. There will be a full-length mirror in each apartment, it is said. Some apartments will have a large dressing closet equipped with disappearing beds without additional cost.

The kitchens will be equipped with gas range, sink and refrigerator and will have ample cupboard space.

Nearly 300 students from all parts of the world were present. Those who spoke to this group of students from various library schools and training classes, were: Miss Eva D.

Cherug, 120 West Forty-second street, counsel for the defendants. Patrolman Hart of Inspector Ryan's staff was cross-examined relative to his findings at Barron's Club on October 15 and 16 last, at which time a Volstead raid was conducted on the place after Thompson, by his own admission, had sold Patrolman Hart six arrests of whiskey. The case was dismissed in the Federa. Court. The defense asked for a touring in Magistrate's Court in order to have his objections placed in the record in anticipation of taking the case, if it is lost in Special Sessions to the Court of Appeals. Attorney Cherng contended that his clients, as owners of the club, for which they hold a certificate of incorporation, have not violated the local law, because they are owners of the building and do not need a cabaret license. Magistrate McKintry said he assumed that the law holds good and would, therefore, send the case to the higher court for a decision. All night club proprietors who also own the building in which their cabarets are located are awaiting with intense interest the decision of the higher court.

However, where a lack of resistance results, results in a receiver being insensitive, this deficiency may easily be supplied by anyone with a little ingenuity. Regeneration may be introduced into a receiving set of the tuned radio-frequency type by the simple expedient of constructing a 80-turn tickler coil, or one of the pancake type, or the radio-diameter type, of the radio-frequency transformer that connects with the detector tube. The tickler coil connects between the usual "P" or plate terminal of the detector socket and the transformer or other radio coupling means. It may be divided into two and then on the other, to note which side augments, rather than buckets, the radio-frequency transformer. Also, the spacing between the tickler coil and radio-frequency transformer may be varied by indication of the operation is controlled not by variable spacing between the coupled coils, but by means of a volume control clarostat shunted across the tickler coil. This method provides razor-sharp control of regeneration. The knob of the clarostat is located across spot on the receiver panel, or in a handy location for ready manipulation.

Kirk, head of the personnel department of the New York Stock Exchange, before the Intercollegiate Association, last Sunday, at the Urban League Building. Mr. Kirk, who was one of the speakers for the economic unit program, illustrated that his experience in dealing with young people showed that there were four principal spiritual elements besides technical knowledge that counted in the business world. "A sense of direction, knowing where you are going: a sense of value, the asset value behind life's capital investment; a sense of appreciation, and a sense of relationship, the ability to get along with people, were named by him. The vice-president, A. L. Sewell, introduced the speaker. T. S. Botta was chairman.

There are many occasions during the cold, weather when the housewife finds it difficult to do her usual shopping and marketing. All during mid-winter it is a wise plan to have on hand such staples as will prevent shopping, discomfiture in zero weather. The housewife whose pantry, is stored with a whole ham, a supply of assorted canned goods and, in particular, a variety of salted and smoked fish, need fear no warning of the weather man. All salted and smoked fish are more concentrated and, therefore, more nourishing than the proportionate amount of the same fresh fish. Codfish is one of the most nutritious of all dried fish. It may be bought in boned "steaks," in which form it is most adaptable for broiling. Or it may be purchased in the "flake" or "shredded" form, which is even more satisfactory for making creamed and scalloped dishes, fish balls, etc. One of the great mistakes is to soak the fish too long or not enough, and thus secure a tasteless or an overly spicy Smoked halibut makes an excellent fish loll by using the pickled-over fish and combining with rice, egg yolks, seasonings, milk or white sauce, together with enough gin-fine to give texture and body.

"Meek Mose" is a splendid comedy-drama of Negro life written by Frank Wilson, and has to date been presented at the Princess Theatre. West 39th street. Since the opening night, which was attended by Mayor Walker and many widely known leaders of this city, the play has made a deep impression on those who have seen it. Some of the finest of our actors take part in it. Among them are Laura Bowman, Silney Kirkpatrick and J. Lawrence Crion, whose work with the old Lafayette Players established them in the ranks of the foremost colored actors. "Meek Mose" is the story of a color community in the town of Mexico, Tex., who were forced to give up their homes and live in the "gut." The different manner in which the colored people who faced the rain of their homes and business acted towards the oppressive measures on the white authorities makes "Meek Mose" a tense and gripping story which provides a splendid evening's entertainment. The management of the Lafayette Theatre announces that the play will be presented exactly as on Broadway, with the same splendid cast and scenery. Seats will be reserved, the prices ranging from 500 to $1.65. The tickets are now on sale at the box-office at the Lafayette Theatre. The presentation of "Meek Mose" will not interfere with the regular Lafayette Theatre performances, an avenue in make possible the preschool school this drama, the management-c. the Lafayette Theatre is arranging a slight change in the schedule which will bring the regular musical comedy performance on earlier in the evening. "Meek Mose" will be presented at 10:45 p. m. every night. The intermissions will be shortened so that the play will be presented in less than two hours. "Meek Mose" is the best of the recent efforts to present dramas of Negro life on the stage and, as such, it should have a real appeal to our people.

CHRISTENSEN SCHOOLS OF POPULAR MUSIC Vance 243 W. 42d St. 111 W. 125th St. EIGHT Authority That the Play Will Be It Was Downtown—Slight Schedule During Run Seen and Heard Around Paris Roland Hayes has gone to Russia for a recital tour. Leslie Hutchinson, popular pianist and entertainer, stopped in Paris a few days before returning to his home in London. Mr. Hutchinson was called to St. Meriz (Switzerland) to play for the royal guests wintering there. Andrew Rosemond, distinguished violinist and world traveler, has returned to Paris for the third time. He is studying here in preparation for a concert tour of the United States to begin next fall. Miss G. V. Harris is making much progress in her study of grammatical French. Miss Harris is a very popular school teacher in one of the mid-western cities and hopes to teach French on her return. Bollin Smith, one of the finest saxophonists in Europe and the possessor of a powerful and sonorous baritone voice, is now recording classic numbers for one of the best companies in Europe. Louis V. Jones entertained in honor of his pal and colleague, Andrew Rosemond, who has just returned to Paris, in the Jones box at the Pasdeoloup symphony concert were a small party of French and Russian artists. The party witnessed the premier audition of the "Suite Oregane" by the Russian composer, N. Tehernina. The composer was in the audience and received an ovation. After the concert the party went to an exclusive Russian restaurant for dinner. Mr. Jones is an artist of the violin and concertized in America last year. Earl Granstaff, entertainer and trombonist, formerly with the original Planation Orchestra, has arrived in Paris from Vienna. Mr. Granstaff has played all over Europe. He was "shef dorshest" for one of the most select clubs in Marselles for one year and lived in a villa near the famous Gaby Deslys' mansion on the Grand Corniche. Seth Weeks, famous for many years as a virtuoso of the mandolin and guitar, will play the first guitar part in a suite for 'cello and two guitars by a modern French composer. The concert, which is one of the gala musical affairs of the week, will be given at the beautiful Grande Salle Pleyet. So far the Royal Philharmonic has performed the largest audience at this great concert hall and Miachin Elman (the renowned Russian violinist) is second. The hall I was completed few months ago. (From "Engrave" London) Not for a long time have I seen anybody hold an audience like Noble Stale still here. First with his perfect rendering of knotcored song, then the brilliant impression of "No Man's Land" and finally with his pathos number, "My Kidnapping's Shoes." A truly wonderful artist, who puts his stuff over in a wonderful manner. The Harmony Kings have made so big a hit at the Trendader and the Emperor Renaissance in the last month that they were booked to return for two weeks and also in May. Al. Johns Passes Awny. Al. Johns, popular entertainer and composer of the past generation, died at the American Hospital in Paris on February 16. Mr. Johns had been ill for many months.

His speech was impaired because of this malady, making it impossible for him to fill engagements. Death was due to complication of diseases. About twenty or twenty-five years ago, Mr. Johns was at the height of his popularity as the pianist of May Irwin and the favorite entertainer of Mr. Vanderbilt. His compositions many songs of his patrish birthdays and for numerous banquets and receptions and was handsomely regarded for his musical efforts. Although he was unable to read music, he is reputed to have had considerable talent and was clever at the piano. One of his compositions, "La Buenos Aires," has been played and sung all over Europe. He was well at the American Church of the Holy Trinity, 23 Avenue George the Fifth, on Monday, February 20, at 3 p.m. Mr. Johns is the fifth Negro to die in Paris within the past year. Bosemond in Paris Again. Andrew Rosemend, celebrated violinist and teacher, who recently returned from study in Carlsbad and Berlin, has returned to Paris. Mr. Rosemend remained several weeks in New York, announced his plans for next fall and returned to Europe. He is again studying with French masters and devoting all of his time to the arrangement and preparation of his program. He will return to New York next September or October to begin a tour of the United States. VLENNA--Josephine Baker will get no opportunity to show her art to the Viennese. At the eleventh hour the municipal senate refused to grant the Ronacher Theatre the necessary official permission for the guest performance of the Negro dancing star, and Josephine has also become the target of political onslaught and nationalized and sterilized deputies raised collections against her appearance in public on the ground that her nude dances endanger public morals. Extreme nationalist radicals even go so far as to speak of a "Negerschmach," the insult it would mean to the white population of this city, if Josephine Baker appeared on the stage. The Viennese, it is said, have already been irritated by the jazz opera "Johnny Plays Up," whose central figure is a Negro. Her managers, Hohenberg and Leo Singer, have no intention to fight off offers from Berlin, Prague and Budapest they hold, and cancel their Viennese engagements. The technical staff of the Ronacher Theatre has already been dismissed. Upon her arrival in Vienna Wednesday, Josephine Baker was received by an enthusiastic crowd at the Grand Hotel, where she is staying. BERLIN.—Before a large audience that showed its enthusiasm by demanding nine encores, the Fiks Jubilee Singers, the widely-known Negro male quartet from Flask University, gave a concert of Negro spirituals and plantation songs in the Beethoven-saal on Monday evening. Shortly after the concert the singers and their manager, Mr. Witter K. Varney, returned to Paris, where they have a private engagement with the composer. Later they will go to the Rybner for return engagements at Nice, Cannes and Monton, and on March 10 they will appear with the Colonne Groschrota. A return to Berlin in April is planned, as well as appearances in Hamburg and posi- hither other German cities and a series of have already but unprincipled processes, Interest in their concert here was divided between the warm, melow quality of their voices and the racially characteristic philosophy and humor of their songs. At times, in delicacy the five voices suggested five fine strands of slik drawn from the cocons and wound, through the excellence of their ensemble training, into one throat of sound. At other times their singing was more robust, but never harsh. The nature of the songs was largely appreciated by the audience, which contained many Americans, although the applause given to one encore, sung in German, showed also that Berlin had a strong influence on the hall. "Ah Wish Ah Was in Heaven, a-Settin Down — another encore —typified that joint yearning for another world and for release from labor which decades of slavery had made a spiritual inheritance of the Negroes. VIENNA.—The first appearance of the American disease, Ruth Draper, in Vienna, in the Theatre in der Josephstadt, was attended by a select audience comprising the United States Minister, Mr. Albert H. Washburn, and Mrs. Washburn and consulate and numerous members of the American society that was filled the last seat and the house listened to Ruth Draper's general interpretation of typical everyday life scenes with breathless suspense, responding to the various numbers of the program with enthusiastic applause. The funny scenes appealed to the audience quite as much as the more sentimental or tragic ones. The Austrians present were especially touched by the pathetic rendering of the scene "A Dalmatian Pensant in the Hall of a New Amsterdam Museum," of the times when Dalmatin formed part of Austria and when they had plenty of opportunity of studying the mentality of these humble peasant folk. TO WILLIAM JONES We have not the time nor the inclination to answer your communication in these columns. At the time you saw the dramatic editor on the call at the Alhambra Theatre "gracefully reclining in front of the box office" he was watching the money, as it was the same dramatic editor who advanced hundreds of dollars so that Eddie Rector's show, of which you speak, could go into the house. This will be starting news to you, but the firm of Dingle & Dingle, lawyers, on 18th street, will confirm this. Perhaps you will now suspect that despite your land or ownership, what we know about the stores, we are not aware to advancing hundreds of dollars to some of our friends in the profession. Some have died saving us hundreds, brother—and cash advanced, and not dream money. Will you now hang your head and please join the minnowal Thank you. LEARN TO DANCE ANDERSON'S STUDIO 564 LENOX AVE.

Billie Yarbro, whose complete Christian name is Yarbrough, has never before appeared on the institutional stages of the Great White Way and was known prior to her antics on the opening night of "Keep Shufflin'" to only educate her on the art of the sucellary night clubs of Harlem. Even among her following in Harlem embraces Yarbro was never appreciated as an artist, and now she finds herself one of the most talked about performers in current successes. Her contagious popularity has its counterpart in the sudden rise to fame of Zelma O'Gell, who was an instantaneous hit from the performance she walked on the stage in "Wood News." Billie Yarbro employs a technique that is totally different from that utilized by most comic dancers. She displays her writling, wiggling, eccentric steps with an agonized expression on her dusky face, and, contrary to psychology, she creates laughter through these dancing lessons and her routines are her own creations. There are other members of the cast.

"Joyland" Now at Alhambra Theatre From Coney Island to the Orient, With Sandy Burns and Sam Manning Six months ago a lonely old watchman and the theatre cat were the only tenants of the big Alhambra and now, as though by a miracle, the crowds come and go and the fame of its musical reviews is country-wide. A trip to "Joyland" is this week's attraction. "Joyland" is a veritable Coney Island, reminiscent of Luna Park and Dreamland. Many are the wonders seen in "Joyland," and the scenic settings are a credit to the Alhambra's producing organization. A stirring operatic opening starts the show, and is heartily applauded as the Alhambra Girls swing into action. A fishing episode at Rock Creek affords great comedy opportunity for popular Sandy Burns and Mantan. And the girls in a roaring number followed by Zudora, and next we enter "Joyland." An amazing contortion act is done by DeWayman Niles, said to be the world's colored champion. Whether he is or not, he certainly had the audience cheering at feats that seemed impossible. Cross and Jackson do a nifty dancing turn, interrupted by Mantan, whose eccentric stunts are wildly applauded. Then the girl dance with Amanda Randolph, and how they dance when "Our Mandy" leads them! Sandy Burns adds some more fun and then the action shifts to the harem of an Oriental potentate in a gorgeous golden setting. Herr Sam Manning steps in, with his unique comedy, and the audience goes on again. Ethel Ridley, Sterling Grant and George Green add to the fun until it is almost too much for one evening. The extra show Wednesday midnight will be the occasion of theatre parties by both uptown and downtown folks. "The Other Woman's Story," starring Alice Calhoun, is the principal photoplay.

It is remarkable when you look on your past life just how much contact with other individuals meant to you. Have you ever thought it over, Romeo, in climbing a ladder of life, how on more than one occasion you have come to contact with some persons who have given you a pat on the back, encouraging word just at the right time, when you were perhaps out to falter, and it has given you renewed vigor and strength to carry. My best contact was made 21 years ago next June with a young lady answered very readily to the minister "I do!" and became Mrs. Yvie F. Wilson. That contact I have never regretted, and doubt I ever shall. Another stand-out contact I remember quite well was with Rev. W. Hinton, pastor of the Coronin Congregational Church, of which I proud to be a member and officer. Then, again, a very fortunate act was made with Mrs. Marla C. Downes and Mr. Raymond Snyder the New Lincoln Theatre, which afforded me a splendid opportunity exercise my latent talent of playwrighting and acting, and the privileges coming into contact with the most colorful, exciting and interesting lence I have ever known. Next my three years and a half spent with the American Academy Dramatic Art, at Carnegie Hall, brought me such contacts as the late Franklin P. Sargent, Ann Wolter, V. P. Josephs, George Currle, who gift me the rudiments of acting and the technique of dramatic art. This ning has stood me in good stand on more than one occasion. Then to Bramham Playhouse, on 25th street and Madison avenue, when I cared in "Justice," a very fine play by Mr. Butler Davenport, a mild man and a friend, and where it was my good pleasure to come in contact with one of the finest characters I ever knew, a woman. I feel, is not only a great artist, but the purest essence of woman, Rose McClendon. I have gained much in experience and art from contact with this lady. There are many other contacts such as I Lewis Lindsey, a good end of mine, who really gave me my start; "Billboard" Jackson, Richard Hamson, etc. But I am only trying to touch the high lights, which gives me to the man whom I consider one of the best known men in erica, Paul Robeson, whom I worked with in Ridgely Torrence's "Simon Cyrenian"; Mary Hoyt Wiborg's "Taboo" and Eugene O'Neill's "All Chillan Got Wings" and "Emperor Jones," and by the time this is to press I will be choking Robeson to death nightly in "Porgy." This man, gentleman, actor, singer and scholar, taught me just what real action can do for some people. later on I also supported Charlie Gilpin in O'Nell's "Emperor" and found him a fine fellow, up-to-date, and not living back in the kings, theatrical, of 1885. Ithey were having a contest for the best actor since Ira Aldridge, my vote would go for Charlie Gilpin, or again, my mind goes out to one Julius Bledsoe, now Jules, of Boat, and I am happy to say that Mr. Bledsoe and I are the best friends, and I shall never forget our contact, for it was through this man that, as understudy, I was hurled one night into the leading in Paul Green's "In Abraham's Bosom," which later won theitzer Prize. This role, I feel, brought me to the attention of the entire Guild, who were then about to produce "Porgy" by Mr. and Mrs. Heyward. The rest, of course, is history. WHAT ALL HARLEM!

This, to my mind, was the biggest thing attempted in connection with my people since I saw in the gallery of the New York Theatre, back in 1903, a little, ragged, black man with a big performance of Williams and Walker's adaptation of Dahomey," and right here, Romeo. I want to tell the world that I came into contact with some of the biggest people I have ever met in my life. I have often heard it said that you could not depend on Negro performers; it's wrong. I also have heard it said that Negroes will not co-operate and pull together; wrong again. Here was a people group presented a play, giving it their best, and when the critics, who to my mind, were quite fair, failed to have over "Meek Mose" said: "We be believe in 'Meek Mose', we believe in our HARLEM!

And they have stuck. No weakness there, brother. Don't tell me that all Negroes desert the ship at the first sign of trouble, and contemplate the possible closing of the play, the cast, with but a few exceptions, said; "Let's carry on! We'll ride with you. If the show goes, all right; if not, all right. We won't quit." It has been a source of inspiration to watch these people, day after day, night after night, with practically no difference in do, but intelligently working and singing together as a wonderful unit, not knowing whether they would be paid at the end of the week or not, and doing all this with a light heart and smiling face. This condition has destroyed a fallacy and shown the worthiness of this fine body of people, who do intelligently praise and milionate. This should be remembered when the cast comes to the Lafayette Theatre next week in "Meek Mose" and these artists: Arthur Ray, Sidney Kirkpatrick, Laura Bowman, Alice Gorgas, Monte Hawley, Olive Hoffries, Tom Mossy, Ruth Carl, Hopkinson, Walter Robinson, Prankin, Charles Moore, Lawrence Almer, Mrs Coleman and son, Ida Perga, Susse Sutton. They have my sincere and best wishes for the continued use of their splendid talent. Contacts like these cannot but help make life worth while. I have been invited by Prof. Chas. Boothby of Lincoln University to speak this chair in Englewood, and I will make that happen to you do this when time allows. You no doubt read of this in the newspapers a week or so ago. A young lady once started my by asking: "Mr. Wilson, are you a Howard man?" I felt honored, but was forced to inform the lady that I graduated from the University of Experience and Hard Knox College, and I went to education from life and New York Juvenile Asylum, where I was placed at the age of 8, at the death of my parents. Another contact that I feel somewhat shaped my life and prepared me for my next contact where I was raised, or dragged, up in the Tenderloin, on one of the tightest streets in the city, 37th street, between Eighth and Ninth avenues in the most notorious people of that day and time, the late "Yellow Charleston," "Lampiglighter," "Smoky Mokes," "Bob" Holm, "Black Kid," the Coleman brothers, "Big Manah" I found these people without affection, living their own lives, never pretend to be a man, and were men and women of the world, big hearted, ready to lend or befriend, and might I say here that many's the dime, quarter, but meat or old overcoat these people have slipped yours truly and helped tie an orphan kid over a cold winter's day. I'm just 44 years old, and I have been kept in a secret, Romeo. But if there is any refinement, any culture, anything about me that might lead folks to think that I'm a successful and well educated man I owe to my contacts with folks such as those mentioned above. More power to them all, and may they have had a face. Of course I have contact swish pessimists, backhitters, blues singers, fair weather friends and what have you, but as a very close friend of mine would say, "Dey don't count." Adlon Romeo. FRANK H. WILSON. EASILY DEFINED Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty, Dramatic Editor Amsterdam News. Dear Mr., The reproduction of Mr. Theopolis Jacobs on Negro performers, in your valuable paper of which I am a constant reader, has caused a stormy petert among the rank and file of Negro Actors. I note that to Mr. Lewis, reply, to Mr. Whitney, he steered clear of the Negro actress or your friend, and cumpier, Mr. Lewis, be good enough to define the "Better (fuss)," for the edification of the writer. Our definition of "letter class" constitutes those people who can ennounce letters written to newspapers. The definition of Mr. Lewis is the same. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 7, 1928 The Negro in the Drama PERMIT me to offer commendation for your critical, comment on "Porgy" in Sunday's Telegraph. The tone of "porgy" was so eminently fair that it lifted you above the ordinary sum of dramatic critics, who can only see Negro actors in the stereotyped blackface comedy roles. With the assistance of Mr. Van Dyke, you have made a careful research into the history of the Negro stage. However, there were a few omissions of important characters undoubtedly worthy of mention. Contemporaneous with Williams & Walker was the team of Cole & Johnson of musical comedy were on a par with, if not superior, to those of the other famous team. Bob Cole preceded Williams and Walker to the Great Beyond, but J. Raymond Johnson played the lead on the concert stage with an orchestra and a group of singers featuring a program of spirituals. This team and their supporting company played Broadway in the old days and also appeared by comedy before the crowned heads of Europe. The first Negro actor who attempted serious drama was Ira Aldridge, of Baltimore, who in the early fifty's went to England, where he appeared as a star in Shakestown and in the performance being as Otello. In the 1955 street branch of the New York Public Library is a very interesting collection of programs and press comments on the performances of Aldridge. This forms a part of the collection donated to the Library by Arthur Schoenberg, of Brooklyn, a director of rare manuscripts and books. Following the productions of Williams & Walker and Cole & Johnson, there was a long period in which the Negro was not seen on broadway. Henry Creamer produced his "Old Man Boy," a musical with his own lyrics, in one of the downtown theatres some time prior to 1914. At about the same period or a little later Mrs. Emily Hippog organized her Negro Players and presented a suite of three plays by Negro Lorenzor at the Bramble Righteous Festival, the black philosopher's "Justice," "Granny Marmore," and "Simon the Cyrenien." Incidentally it was in "Justice" that Frank Wilson first made a stage appearance. The Ethiopian Art Theatre, to which you referred in your article, was the first stage company and I believe that the plays were directed by Sulley Kirkpatrick, who had the role of Herod in "Salome." Another effort in the form of sorrow drama by Negroes was the Lafayette Players, originally organized by the owner of the Lafayette Theatre in New York, the group was maintained in New York and also in Chicago, standard Broadway productions being reproduced by stock companies. No distinctly Negro plays were attempted. Later the Lafayette started a policy of stock company and revues and the stock company was transferred to Philadelphia. The Lafayette Players afforded an opportunity for a number of the present-day stars to get their basic training. Among the better known players in this early effort of the dame drama, are Abbie Mitchell, Rose McClendon, Charles Gilpin, Charlie Olden, Clarence Muse, Babe Townsend, Evelyn Preer and Andrew Bishop. Should you be interested enough to pursue a deeper research into the dame drama, the dame would refer to the W. E. B. DuBois article, "Can the Negro Serve the Drama?" which appeared in Thoure Magazine for July, 1933, and also to the files of The Amsterdam News, 2293 Seventh avenue, New York City, whose dramatic critic, James G. McCarthy, has us an authority on the subject. Additional information can be secured. from Charles S. Johnson, editor of Opportunity, 17 Madison avenue New York City, Dr. DuBois, referred to above, is also the editor of the Crisis, and I am positive that he has any information in his possession. I also call your attention to another slight error. You alluded to Alexandre Dumas, fils, whose grand mother was a Negress. I believe that you intended to refer to Alexandre Dumas, pere, as the mother of Dumas, fils, was a white French andre Dumas, pere, was the mother of General Dumas, at one time in command of Napoleon's cavalry, and the son of a mulatto woman from Martinique. His wife was also a white Frenchwoman. The two leading Negro magazines, the Crisis and Opportunity, conduct annual contests for playwrights, and the two leading white contributions to the drama. I hope that this information will be received in the spirit in which it is sent and that it will add to your knowledge of the Negro theatre. J. MERCER BURRELL. (Editor's Note—The intention was to refer to the elder Dumas, not to his son.)

By a strange twist of fate it would seem that the Lincoln Theatre has really set the pace again for something out of the ordinary, as the eyes of those in the theatrical business have been focused on the house and one other theatre in the community has jumped right into the breach with a larger dramatic offering. In keeping with the policy of the house, the Lincoln management successfully sandwiched "The Scrubwoman" between the regular revue offering and the usual big picture offering, and even when the sketch at the initial performance it is safe to predict that the week should be a banner one for the Lincoln Theatre. Miss Ince Clough, who has done some wonderful work in the past in the higher form of entertainment, rose to the top as did the others in the offering. Mrs. Anderson had no scraps in allowing her first presentation to be of the kind which gave her co-workers a chance to be at their heart, and if all go well Lincoln audiences will see this lady in parts which will find her soaring to those heights which won her her claim of exacting audiences the past. Sharing the spotlight with the stage offerings the screen will disclose the latter half of this week Adolphie Menjou's picture, "A Gentleman of Partie," which comes to the Lincoln on Thursday, is a portrait of a young woman visible in which this popular star has ever been presented. Menjou is cast as a gay young Parisian philanderer and much of the comedy of the picture is built around the romantic entanglements from which he must escape in order to make his marriage possible. In the drama is struck in a unique situation when Menjou discovers that a fair charmer with whom he has been toying is the wife of his valet.

Siegelstein, attorney for Raymond M. Snyder, and Mr. Alexander, Assistant District Attorney for discharge the complaint against said Raymond M. Snyder and Elise Reid and Bernie, and they were acquitted of the charge made. Their arrest was made pursuant to a warrant issued January 19, 1980 on behalf of Mrs. Maria C. Downs, owner of the Lincoln Theatre, located at 58 West 135th street, in which it was alleged that Snyder was manager; Elise Reid, cashier, and the Bernie girl ticket seller for over ten years and that the frauds and infiltrations were in excess of $55,000. The evidence taken before Magistrate McQuade on January 19 sets forth that Raymond Snyder virtually financed, to a certain extent, the theatre, and that there was money due him from Mrs. Snyder's family. That was followed up by Bennett E. Sleigstein, Mr. Snyder's attorney, bringing two suits in the City Court, to recover the sum of $2,500, money said to be due and advanced to actors, and one to recover the sum of $3,000, damages, said to be for breach of contract of employment. The New York Times and other newspapers proclaimed that they were held for special Sessions. Now the case has been terminated in favor of the defendants.

Harlem Heredity In recent years, a number of Harem's timid citizens, when first arriving in this world, have been cordially greeted and tenderly cared for by Mrs. C. H. Smith, a midwife-nurse residing at 108 West 141st street. When interviewed recently, Mrs. Smith revealed the fact that she has been a witness to a number of freak births, among them the case of a child that was born with whiskers and of another that was born with teeth. But the biggest freak, she says, was the one that first opened its eyes and told her to play 108 for 20 cents. The child's parents may find some consolation in the thought that some day its name may be listed in the "Who Is Who" of Negro bankers.

The Harlem Tuberculosis and Health Committee, 202 West 33rd street, in co-operation with the North Harlem Medical Society, opened a campaign, March 1, urging all persons to visit their doctor once a year for a complete health examination and check up on their general health.

Harding, chairman of the Harlem Committee, in opening the campaign. "Young people who come to the city after being brought up in rural communities should be especially careful of their health. They must adapt themselves to the new mode of living and the unusual strain of city life," he added. Dr. Louis T. Wright, president of the North Harlem Medical Society announced that the society had co operated in preparing the pamphlet "The Negro and Tuberculosis," which was being distributed, and would give the campaign its endorsement and support.

C., March 5—(FNS)—Local authorities are now of the opinion that Charles Minter got, homestead while he was out of work in an Ohio town and told the Ohio authorities that he was wanted in North Carolina on a murder charge that was 18 years old. The Ohio sheriff immediately got in touch with the North Carolina officials and in the course of a few days Minter was on his way South to answer the charge of murder in connection with the death of Thomas Waddell. Officials now find that considerable difficulty surrounds their efforts to definitely lay the crime of murder at the feet of Minter.

Prior to moving to Flushing the Perrys resided in Brooklyn and were considered an ideal married couple. Perry, who was one of the best known business men in Brooklyn, conducted a large motorcycle repair at 1738 Fulton street.

Perry started action for divorce on September 14, 1927. In his complaint he alleged that after returning from a trip to his former home in North Carolina he found a white man, one C. Hobson, in a bedroom with his wife. He named four persons as his witnesses. At that time Mrs. Perry also started action for divorce and asked for $75 a week economy and $750 counsel fee, but this action was denied. According to Perry, it with a case of a colored woman and too much prosperity. He and Mrs. Perry had been married for fourteen years and he claimed that he did all in his power to provide for her in the best style. The case came up in Supreme Court on October the week of June 6 and the jury rendered its verdict for a few minutes deliberation. In his testimony Perry told how certain actions of his wife led him to believe that all was not well in his family. When his suspicions had been realized, he called for action. All of a sudden he discovered that he was in bad health and found it necessary to return to North Carolina in search of a better physical condition. He also took care to see that certain friends would keep a close watch upon Mam Perry, the biological moment he received a telegram to return. Perry returned immediately and stopped at a brooklyn hotel, and on the night of Sept. 13 he returned to his home and, as alleged, with four friends, he entered his house and found the white man, who is married and the father of two children, who had a truuder is even alleged to have on Perry's palatines. Perry stated that his first impulse was to kill both, but a second thought made him reconsider and instead of killing them he made Mooker, the white man, take Perry. Perry was outside of the house, which was parked outside of the house. Mrs. Perry was made to get into the car and she and Hooker were told by Perry and his friends to "be on their way." In a talk with an Amsterdam News representative at his home, 50,999 Parsons boulevard, Perry gave the message to Hooker up the place of business on Fulton street. Perry moved to Flushing nearly two years ago and opened up a gasoline station and it became a success. He is planning to make it one of the new places of its kind in Flushing. He also told how he put Mrs. Perry a business in order that she might be her home. He opened a social park parlor for her. It was near the gasoline station. All seemed well in the household of the Perrys and they were sailing illusively on the sea of matrimony, but in the course of time, Perry said, Mrs. Perry commended to not indifferent towards him. This caused him to mediate and also to watch. His attention was attracted to Mr. Hooker, who came often to the soft training room and in fact, from all indications he was one of the best all customers. Perry watched more closely and then came to the conclusion that he was in bad health and a trip to the old north state would improve it. Staten Islanders Gave Dinner for Their Friends Joel A.

The scores, 42 in favor of the Collegians clearly indicates, the difference in the ability of the two teams. The game was unnecessarily rough, due to the tenseness of the struggle and the laxity of Referee "Hop" Huntley, who was nevertheless worth while seeing. The Buffaloes are a good team, but whoever coaches them seemed to have eliminated any system of defense in their otherwise very good game, and that was their downfall. The Collegians played a well rounded game, both in defense and offense, and reserved to win. Mills and Holt were the chief scouts for the Collegians, though the work of the Buffaloes was much more important to the Buffaloes Carter and Henry led their team. Monroe of the Buffaloes, though on the losing team, gave a remarkable exhibition of floor work and a skillful handling. A bark-like time the store stood at $2 to $18 scouts the Collegians. The score: COLLEGIANS. Goals Pouls Points Tomney 2 1 5 Wright 1 1 3 Jind 2 0 6 Jitts 6 1 13 Jaygaton 3 0 6 Snyder 3 0 6 Holt 6 1 12 Valker 1 0 2 ---- ---- ---- 33 4 51 BUFFALOES.

The game was played at Scenic Auditorium before a capacity crowd and was the most exciting and roughest played here this season. The Elks have been playing in this vicinity since early January and have amassed a total of 30 wins in 40 starts, playing the leading clubs in New England. They had frequently been mentioned as world's colored champions and this seemed to arouse the fire of the New Yorkers. Bob Douglas brought his pts to the Hull City and issued numerous defenses to the Philly boys, through the daily papers. After much dickering the tennis finally got to gether last. Thursday evening with the last four games, the boys had a fair with neither team sharing more than a two-point advantage at any stage of the game. The youngsters from Philly out played and even outgenerated their more experienced opponents, causing the latter to resort to very tough tactics, but this proved no avail. Satch and Mayers kept the ball in the court, but the consistent scoring, while the entire Elk aggregation played great ball. The score: QUAKER CITY ELKS (22) Glss. Pts. Pts.

J., March 3—Student Council Five of Newark provided itself the class of New Jersey amateur basketball tonight when Ray Murphy and Co. ran roughhoused over the Plymouth Bordentown School Basketball Tournament, by a 41-20 count.

As winner of the nationals at Hampton, in which he defended match, "Ted" is entitled to this position. "Ted" was also finalist in the Eastern sectional Championships at Norfolkown, where he was defeated by the tall champion. This time, his revenge at Hampton was confirmed by the quarterfinals of the nationals. national champions hitting New Yorkers at the nationals at his position. "Ted" was warden, where he was quarterfinal of a quarterfinal of his first place and is finalist in our years Scatch and because of the close game, has advanced semi-finals in the that in the Southeastern drive during the 5 game.

This former the Nationals Salch pushed Thompson closely for first place, being a finalist at Hampton, pushed of the Eastern Sectional and a finalist in the St. Louis Open, which he lost to Huddlin. For the last four years Salch and "Ted" have furnished a problem to the rating committees because of the closeness of their scores and the similarity of their styles of play. Thompson has advanced from No. 5 in 1929 to No. 3 in the current ratings. He was a semi-finalist in the Nationals, winner of the West Virginia Open and quarter-finalist in the Southeastern Open Sectional. Downing developed a powerful forehand drive during the season and showed a startling improvement in his all around game. The most notable comeback in tennis history is that of Dr. Sylvester Smith, angles champion of the A. T. A. in 1919 and finalist in 1920, remaining out of the game for five years. He was a semi-finalist in the Nationals, winner of the West Virginia Open and made a creditable showing in the Nationals hospital illness during the week. Dr. Smith is very properly placed at No. 4. Richard Huddlin, the harddriving former University of Chicago ace, moved up from No. 7 in 1928 to No. 5 in the current list. Huddlin's principal performance of the season was his defeat of Salch in the St. Louis Open. He gave Ted "Thompson a thrilling battle in the quarter-finals of the Nationals." Dr. Marcellus Goff, by reason of his competition in the Nationals and winning the tournament, was defeated from No. 12 to No. 8. That well-known and popular old-timer Dr. J. L. McGriff has also improved his position in the current rating being advanced from No. 9 to No. 7. He competed with credit in four of the major tournaments of the year. At No. 8 and No. 9 are placed two players who are so nearly identical in style and ability as the famous Thompson and Salch duo. Dr. C. W. Purlonge was rated at No. 16 in 1926, while his close competitor, Dr. M. L. DuBissette, occupied a lowly position at No. 25. Purlonge gained the edge this year by competing in the Nationals and New York Open, the only player in the first year who has previously been omitted from National ratings. This former junior star won, the New England Open and competed creditably in the Nationals and the Easterns. Second Ten way, he was rated prominence at the G.

Granger, also of New Jersey, has moved up to No. 12 on his record of competition in five tournaments during the season. He has won the national championship twice, the Johnny Wilkinson of Washington, D.C., was unable to maintain the sensational pace that he set in 1926. He was defended by several players of lesser rank, only competed in three tournaments and has fallen from No. 3 to No. 13. Dr. Percy Richardson of New York competed in most of the major tournaments in the East with credit and has advanced from No. 14 to No. 16. Kenneth Wade of New Jersey, although he made a wonderful record in the Nationals, did not compete in any other major tournament, and his points only entitle him to No. 16. George Hill, the erratic and hard-hitting New Jersey stylist, defeated many ranking players in the Nationals and Easterns, and is returned to the National rating. Talley Holmes, the "old master," four times National champion, had hard luck in the draw in the Nationals and Easterns, and was defeated in each case by Salty in the early rounds. Talley headed the second ten last year, but his points only entitle him to No. 18 in this year's rating. Fred Johnson of New York, the only one-armed tennis player in competition, has lost one place in the rating and follows Talley Holmes. William Wilks of New Jersey competed in all of the major tournaments in the East and has advanced three places, to No. 20. Third Ten. The third ten is composed of players who competed in a sufficient number of tournaments to qualify under the new rating scale. H. A. Kean of Kentucky, who was No. 10 in the 1928 ratings, fell below form and is placed at No. 24, Dr. L. F. Gordon of Philadelphia has dropped from No. 22 in 1928 to No. 23 this year. J.

Edwards, perhaps the greatest pioneer of all times in the history of New York University, when he was by far the classic Casey 600 from the 1827 cupholder, thrilled 17,000 track enthusiasts. PaildS Sober, of the Holy Name Club, was awarded third place. The New York University boy, not beaten at 600 yards this season, with his brilliant triumph Wednesday night on top of his National A. A. U. 600-yard championship victory Saturday, established himself unquestionably as the country's best at the distance. Off in fourth place in a crowded field of seven as Senes forged to the front for his usual van running. Edwards on successive laps pulled up to third place and then to second. The country's greatest 600-yard runner, cutting down a five-yard gap, fought his way around Senes. With gleaming teeth, as he called on all his reserve for the winning sprint and opening a lead of five yards on Senes in the homestretch, breasted the tape the winner. Edwards' time of 1 minute 12.45 seconds was the fastest for 600 yards this year and one of the fastest races over run indoors. It equated the old record before Alan Helfrich made his present mark of 1:11.3-5 in the Casey 600 of 1925.

But happily be- hind every cloud there is a ray of sunshine, So it is with the porters and maids, Wille the Employee Represen- tative Plan was resting upon the rerks of the porters, with ever Ine qreasing menace and misery, the Rratterhood came Whth a dofnite industrial programme to give sue- tor atk solace to the distracted, disheartened, disorganized and de- spatring porter. The splrit of organization swept the porters throughout the coun- try with amazing rapidity.

Of course, this {s uatural, since the welfare workers are pald by the Company and take their oF Gers from the Company. They knew from experience that when a porter was discharged a welfare xorker was entirely helpless to do him any good, lie also knew that any passen- ser could write @ letter to the superintendent of tbe Pullman Company and cause any porter to be discharged whether he bad heeu in the service one’ year or forty. ‘This is not true of the Pul- man conductors, engineers or fire: meu, All other transportation workers have thelr organizations to represent them in the adjust- meut of their grievances.

Boy Scout News By Scout Edward Lewis Readers this week we are going to have a little talk on "How the Boy Scouts Use the Library." It is not a very hard question to answer. Many boys like to read books. I do. Well, if a boy hasn't a library at home, he will probably not be able to read. I want you to know what books the Scouts read. Well! Some Scouts like to read pirate stories; how the pirate captain gets into a boat with a treasure of gold and five of his crew go with him, never to return to the pirate ship. The船 landed on a desert island. The treasure was in the ground, and after the hole in the ground, the pirate captain raises his sword and says, "No man shall leave this spot alive except myself." Now, let us look at the Scout after he has read this. Why, his hair is standing on end: his eyes are nearly bullying out of his head and he is held tense with excitement. What is going to happen next? The pirate captain cuts off the heads of all the heads on top of the treasure, mumbles a sigh of relief and goes back to his ship. Now look at the Scout. He has cooled down a bit. The exciting part has passed. There are many other interesting books in the library. For instance, The Scouts' Handbook, copies of which are procured in all libraries; The Life of Scouts magazine; Many Scouts go to the library just to read that magazine. The other day while reading a book in the library, I saw a boy take a copy of Boys' Life from the magazine rack and began to look at it. He said to his companion: "Is this the Scouts' official magazine?" His companion replied that it was. The boy not convinced and the publisher asked the Scouts of America. He then sat down and read the copy. There are many books on wood- craft, birds, flowers and hiking that interest a Scout; in fact, not only him, but many other boys who are not Scouts. My advice to all boys who want comfort in lonely hours is to go to the Library if he hasn't one at home, and read a good book on biking or some other interesting sub- ject. Recital. Where, when and why at Troop 774? Its big recital takes place on March 18. It will be given by the David Johnson Music School for the benefit of Troop 774 at Grace Congregational Church, 309 West 190th street. A solo will be sung by Madam Harrier Houston.

The Tenant-owner assures himself of a permanent home in this case of a home in a desirable location, which might be prohibitive to him without co-operative organization. Moreover, he assures to himself a thoroughly well-built home, carefully planned for economy of operation and avoidance of repairs. He guarantees himself a residence in a building occupied by persons having his own social standards and ideals. Financially he profits by investing his funds in a safe and sure proposition—one of which his family lawyer and banker will approve. Forever, he profits in his monthly expenditures, because, while the actual cost of running the building is the same that a landlord would have to pay, the savings that result through the avoidance of unrented apartments, the expense of frequent repairs and redecoration due to change in tenancy, and the large profit that a landlord expects, revert to the Tenant-owner in lowered "rent-". Further financial benefit arises from the 2% amortization of the mortgage, which annually augments the value of the property, in addition to the increased value of the real estate, due to the construction of a fine, modern building and steadily improving surroundings.

It was man's first possession. It was the beginning of all wealth. From this start the miracle of progress has been evolved. The Lincoln Mansion Partial Payment Plan is offered to meet the demand of those who are interested in owning an apartment, but who lack a systematic plan of saving. There are few who, on their own initiative, can continue to save regularly for a given period without the aid of a plan which requires the payment of a stated amount at a specified time. The Lincoln Mansion Partial Payment Plan will appeal to those with the vision to look ahead and the courage to act now—in saving TODAY to provide for TOMORROW. This plan will make apartment owners of rent receipt savers. That miracle is working today more powerfully than ever for man's benefit. Never before to any people has the soil yielded up its riches so generously as to us of America. We have seen struggling towns grow into cities whose people numbered thousands—have watched granite towers rise where our grandfathers pastured their cattle. For years, we of the Bonmar Construction Corporation have seen this miracle of the land pour its wealth into the hands of America. And everywhere—whether in New York or Chicago, St. Louis or Los Angeles—we have wondered that this Miracle of the Land could pass unnoticed by so many men. We have seen poor men start with little else but vision and determination, and acquire homes which their grandfathers would have regarded as palaces of millionaires. (Thus have opportunities grown and standards changed even in the life of a generation.) The Lincoln Mansion Partial Payment Plan is very convenient and at the same time very simple in its mode of operation. All you have to do is to pay a stipulated amount towards the purchase of an apartment and the balance in monthly payments; less than rent, when you take possession. On this Partial Payment Plan you pay the same amount for an apartment as an individual who purchases his apartment outright. We have seen men start with only a few hundreds in savings, and through land investment become independently wealthy. We have seen men buy land for a few dollars down, with the rest on contract—and then have watched them become prosperous and increase their holdings. The purchase of an apartment under the Partial Payment Plan will enable you to realize your life's ambition, the crowning event, the owning of an apartment home, to enjoy a comfortable old age. To a large number of people these dreams will never be realized. They will be forever merely dreams, supported entirely by hope. They will fail of fulfillment through the failure to get started and and the lack of a definite plan of accomplishment. To some, land has meant the wealth of contentment—to others, wealth of opportunity—to others, wealth of gold. It is a drama in which we of the Bonmar Construction Corporation have been proud to play a part. We have been able to assist salaried men to acquire land ownership with all its varied benefits. The founder of the Bonmar Construction Corporation, devised the "payment from rent savings" plan, which has enabled people in modest circumstances to become owners of profitable city apartment homes. The Lincoln Mansion Partial Payment Plan provides the necessary incentive to purchase an apartment for the same sum monthly as you now pay in rent. It protects you from the natural tendency, when you bank your money, to put it away one week or month—and draw it out the next. It encourages the habit of regular, systematic saving, which when once acquired becomes a pleasure which you will be reluctant to give up and which will eliminate waste, careless spending and worthless rent receipts. Nor is the story yet finished. All around lies land still waiting to be put to usefulness—waiting for the growing population to come and claim it—waiting for the expanding cities to turn it to the production of still more wealth. Immigrants come to this country with empty hands, but with eyes alight to the opportunity—and they leave their children the landed estates of a millionaire. New Vanderbilts start out in life each year, and live to become the owners of thousands of acres and of wealth which even Croesus could have envied. The tale has become so usual that no longer do we pause to wonder. Men go daily back and forth to their work, eat their food, take their recreation, seek their rest—and never once reflect on the miracles that are being enacted all around them. Women scurry through their housework, hurry through the market, rush to the theatre—to thrill at dramas that cannot compare to the wonder of the thing in which we ourselves are actors this very day and hour.

Telephone Morningside 3701-3702 Wednesday, March 7, 1928 Negroes in Brazil COUNT Decio De Paula Machado, whose name sounds like that of a geand opera hero, brings news from Brazil that may surprise the Cau- casians of this country. Until re- cently he was the president and gen- eral director of twenty-two banks in the State of Sao Paulo, the richest state of Brazil. While in office he placed forty-two Negroes in execu= tive positions, which they still hold, and one is a bank president. He says that Negroes hold 400 execu: tive government positions in Sao Paulo, that the leading senator of the state is a Negro, that there are five Negroes in the Brazilian Parlia- ment, two Negro generals in the army and one Negro admiral in the navy. COUNT MACHADO does not advo- cate social intermingling of races, or says he does not, remembering that he is in the United States and must be diplomatic. At any rate, such a statement is opposed to the principle and practice of his country. When “ine iate Theodore Roosevelt visited Brazil he was amazed to see pore traits of black men in aristocratic homes, He was informed that these men were among the family ances= tors. ABrazilian statesman told him that the best way to avoid a race problem was to assimilate the Negro into the general population. Certain- ly a nation that permits a Negro to command a fleet or an army would not obiect to his marrying one of its women. ROOSEVELT’S Brazilian informer only said openly what many white Americans are saying secretly. Itis a natural law that the larger part of a population:should absorb the small- er, and in spite of all the social and legal barriers ihat law is operating in America. In fact, the loudest op: ponents of miscegenation have done the most to bring it about. They curse ihe natural law, they legislate against it, they shoot and burn and hang to defeat it. But they obey it. Negro Collegians “NEGRO coflege men and women, especially the younger generation, have shown to date very little in- terest in matters pertaining to the race and to public affairs,” said Dean Lucy Slowe of Howard University in a recent address fo the Intercol- legiate Association. IF THIS be true, it is a grievous fault. When college men are cen- sured by non-collegians there is some suspicion of jealousy and sore- headedness; but when such remarks come from a college dean they com- mand attention. An educated person who shows no interest in the strug: gles and aspirations of his own race is a sorry sight. However hotly he may deny it, the fact of his going to college creates the natural presump= tion that his education will redound to the gencral advantage of his peo: ple. Harvard College, in fact, bears upon one of iis famous gates the in- scription: “Depart, to serve thy country and thy kind.” DEAN SLOWE'S reproach hardly applies to the older generation of Negro callege men. No group of men have fought more bravely and perisistently for the Negro’s cause than W. E. B, DuBois, James Weldon Johnson, Dean Pickens, W. Monroe Trotter and. Kelly Miller, to name only afew. But it cannot be denied that too many of the younger college people have succumbed to anti-Negro propaganda and learned to despise their race; in this respect their con= versation is on a par with that of the ignorant Negro, who knows no better. Still, this may be only a fault of youth. When the rude foot of ex- perience kicks over their ivory tow- ers they may pick themselves up and go to work for the race they be- long to. Al Johns ANOTHER golden leaf has iafien. Al Johns, the inimitable, recently died in Paris. This generation knows little of him, but twenty years ago no love aifair was complete without his song, “If | But Thought You Cared for Me.” In those days he was writing music for May Irwin, one of the lerding figures of the stage, and was one of the most pic- turesque geniuses of Fifty-third street, where so much Negro talent came to periection. 5 AL JOHNS was original as a man and as a musician. At the piano he could never confine himself to ordi- nary playing; he was a creative vir- tuoso. He could draw beauty out of a piece of music that the composer of it had never suspected; in fact, he often did more for other com- posers than for himself. As a man, he was always a character. A child of nature, he was no respecter of persons; he would have called the President of the United States by his first name and made him like it. His unstudied comments on things and people were so droll that an editor asked him to write some of them for his paper, and everybody bought the paper to see what Ai Johns had to say. He was like Will Rogers of the white press, only funnier. THE MEMBERS of the old Clef Club will never forget him, and it is likely that people in Paris, where he spent the last years of his life, will remem- ber a large, brown-faced man with an irreverent smile and a peculiar light in his eyes. It is likely, too, that when he was about to die he hummed his famous song: “For the Last Time Call Me Sweetheart.” Hell Hath No Fury THE CASE of Donovan David, happily terminated by his acquittal, could not have happened in any other country but America. A fifteen- year-old white girl became infatuat- ed with him, David, a musician, re- pulsed her, but she followed him everywhere, being ejected from every place he played because of her annoying attentions. Finally she made a charge of assault against him, and he was arrested and put to a great deal of trouble and humilia- tion before he was cleared, HELL HATH no fury like a woman scorned, but in this case it was not altogether Che woman's fault, lt wan the ‘foul of Amerfent: ruee prejudice, which acts upon the wildest tale of a white woman against a colored man. ‘Thie was ax clearly an attempt to rape a man as if it had beon physical; the woman used the Jaw trying to club the man inte sayrender, Imagine a similar ense in the South. ‘The man would be lynched long before he could be brought tn trial, - Hoover or Whoever? -:- IL lithe Herbert Hoover WwW or will it be another that shall be the chosen Re publican standard bearer in the approaching presidential campaign? At one time it fooks one way and then an- other, Mr, Hoover is, un- oubtedly the choice of the yreat mass of Republican yoters, mt the bosses and manipulators seem ta have another thought, \Will Rogers affirms his be- Nei in Mr. Coolidge’s Re- publiganism, bur with the reservation that the secretary himself did not find. out to what party he belonged wn- til he had’ well nigh reached old age. The primary battle is now on, Students of political muyements will recall that a few years ago the prigary was “regarded as the test principle of, political reform. ‘The evils ai the old conven- tion method were held re- sponsible Jor a multitude of political ills. This was. in the days of Bryan, when the initiative, referendum and re- call constituted the issnes oi the hour, But, along with the others, the preferential pri- mary has all but fallen out oi the thought of political reformers, Thealleged abvyes in Mlinois and Chicago have fone a long way towards dis- crediting this ‘much landed reform. It ds a wellXnown principle tn polities that the existhig admints- tration can dictate the nomina- tion ofits successor, Any’ Presi: dent can renominate himself, un- Joss, Ike Cleveland in his second administration, he falls out with his own party. Mr. Coolidge can, or could have, fenominated lilm- self merely by silent nequiese- ence.

Scott paused long enough from planning her 1928 Baby Contest for her and Mr, Scotf to take me to see the most famous “Mission Play” in the ety of Alhambra, where is located one of the finest ruins of the Franciseans, the Mission of San Gabriel, ‘One would suspect that a “mission play." with the idea of religion in it, might be dull, but he finds this play. which glorities the sacrifices and virtues of the Franciscan Monks, a inust interesting and human drama of three acts. Tt seems to have been the determination and devotion of these monks io win the “heathen” Indian to the church, that Ted to the exploration and final settlement of California, beginning at ‘the frst act depicts the, awful task betare Ue “padres” and the few Spanish Mexican soldiers who snpporteil then. The second el pictures the glories of the old misslons in all thefr human services. ‘The old ms ston was everything from church to theatre, from plice of worship to carnival yard. The padres pro- teeted the “Indians, thelr wards, from the rapacity of (he polltieal forces and the brittal assault of the Spanish soldfery. and the Ku Klux will be interested to hear thatthe “president” of the monks of California boldly pros claimed that the “laws of Goa” (ook precedence to the laws of the king of Spain, and that the padres would have refused to permit the King himself to rape an Indian girl. let nlone one of the king's soldiers. ‘Then the third act ts plain chureh propaganda, stowing the missions in roine and the Iniitans sider dire oppression uy a result at the overthyaw of the power of the Cutholle “Chnren and. the su- premasy af. the poittleal forces, ‘The “dramatie contrasts — are powerfully made, so Chat even one who hus tid Interest tn the chureh Ie much mover.
