SHIELDS WHITE WOMAN IN SHOOTING DEATH WINS IN ABORTION CASE REGULAR WEEKLY EDITION Complete in Two Sections FISHER DUCKETT, INSANITY VICTIM, IN STATE HOSPITAL Young Man Accused With Dr. Stewart in Case of Liza Levy Dies Day Before Scheduled Hearing in Heights Court After being driven to insanity and madness because of his deep sorrow, disgrace and remorse, Samuel Fisher Duckett, 21, 32 West 131st street, co-defendant on a charge of abortion, died in Manhattan State Hospital last Wednesday evening and was buried Saturday afternoon from the funeral parlors of William C. Perry, 248 West 132d street. He was laid to rest by his grief-burdened mother, Mrs. Georgia A. English. He was a member of the Abyssinian Baptist Church. Duckett died the day before he was to have been arraigned in Heights Court before Magistrate Goodman. He had been at liberty under $2,500 ball. His co-defendant was Dr. Seth F. Stewart, 23, 258 West 136th street, who was charged with performing an illegal operation on Feb. 1 upon Miss Liza Levy, age 19, of 2329 Seventh avenue, Duckett's sweetheart. The doctor and Miss Levy, who was also arrested on the same charge, are at liberty under $5,000 and $1,000 ball, respectively. The hearing was adjourned to next Wednesday. Murderer Kills Self in Tombs Joseph Dance Found Dangling in Cell With Sheet Around His Neck Following the alleged illegal operation upon Miss Levy at Dr. Stewart's office on Feb. 1, another and more serious one was performed at Harlem Hospital the following day in order to save her life. It was believed that she would die, but she was able to leave the hospital after several weeks. Three weeks ago, however, it was necessary for her to return for two more operations. Her condition is reported as not serious. Miss Levy was said to have been in good health when Duckett took her to Dr. Stewart. Duckett was confined to prison under heavy ball, but later released on bond when the ball was reduced. His love for the girl and the realization that both of their young lives were ruined, together with the publicity attending the affair, is said to have driven him crazy. He was removed to Bellevue Hospital about a month ago. When his condition became worse, he was taken to Manhattan State Hospital, where he died.

Arrest Made in Warner Swindle Detective Sergeant Battle Apprehends Suspect in Jamaica Accused of being the principal actor in a recent $5,000 swindle upon H. S. Warner, a real estate man, with offices at 654 Lenox avenue, Walter Rafael, 79 East 113th street, was arrested by Detective Sergeant Battle of the West 135th street station, assisted by Detectives O'Brien and Kraomer of the Jamaica police, and arraigned in Jamaica Police Court Monday before Magistrate Green on a charge of grand larceny. Two other men are being sought. While Rafael, with his wife and two children, was a tenant of Warner's, at 2465 Second avenue, he, it is alleged, invigled Warner into his scheme, with the assistance of one Hezekiah Johnson and an African named Bolanglaa. On the morning when Warner drew $5,000 from the bank to do business downtown, Rafael phoned him that Bolanglaa and a friend wanted to buy some of his lots in Jamaica, When the four men arrived in Jamaica, the African told a strange story of an Indian spirit telling him of $300,000 being buried on Warner's lots. They dug and found the "buried treasure" covered by a cement cover, with about thirty $20 gold pieces glued to it. Bolangiaa forbade removal of it before some money was passed, the African himself showing his "half" of the $10,000 agreed upon for "buying" the treasure out of the ground. Next day Warner discovered blank paper in place of his five $1,000 bills in the envelope he had passed to the African. He called on Rafael and found him "not at home." Then he called on the police.

Dr. Oliver stated that he took the matter up upon his own responsibility. After a lengthy conversation with the District Attorney on Saturday, witnesses were subpoenaed and the hearing set for yesterday. When interviewed on Monday, Mrs. Tallie Sesom, wife of the dead man, related in greater and more fluent detail the whole story of her husband's death. She stated that her husband began paying Reilly graft of $5 a week when Sesom was president of the Raylon Republican Club, at 54 West 135th street, and that, after he closed the club, he continued to pay. Reilly his weekly "fee" as "a matter of friendship." "Both of them had been fast friends for years and used to drink together," she said, "and everybody was shocked when he killed Alco."

The street is lined with trees and streetlights, and there are people walking and interacting in the scene.

Reilly came upstairs to the door and demanded that they stop their noise, said Mrs. Sesom. CORRECTIONS The charge of assault against Ulysses Gayle, 23, 35 East Thirtieth street, heard before Magistrate Goodman in Heights Court last Wednesday, was not for fighting the complainant, Mrs. Katie Butler, 50, 222 West 134th street, but for running her down with his motor car and severely injuring her on Edgcombe avenue, near 134th street, on May 20. Although Mrs. Butler is still confined to Harlem Hospital, her condition is said to be not serious. Gayle was released under $500 bond for a further hearing June 19.

Helena said she saw the ceiling of the store drop and the store-front sag and shouted to Charles to run. Altritzer was in the back of the store waiting on a few customers. The first crash had come, carrying with it the sidewalk. Before she could reach the door the second crash followed, knocking Helena down on her face, as the whole fronts of both stores were making a grinding noise as they tumbled into the deen pit. "I was sliding down into the hole on my chest," Helena said. "and when I saw a plank I grabbed aloft of it. I don't know what happened to Charles because I didn't look back." A frown darkened her beautiful features as she recalled the awful sight while lying on a couch in her home talking to a reporter of The Amsterdam News. The workman, an unknown white man, risked his life, she said, to save her. Mother Collapses Mrs. Vivian Killingsworth, mother of Charles, collapsed when she heard the news. She is bedridden. Both children wore pupils at P. S. 46, St. Nicholas avenue and 156th street. Mrs. Ella Smith and Mrs. May Hawkins, mother of Lucky Roberts, famous musician, while looking from their windows across the street at 145, were eye-witnesses to second crash which carried down the whole front porch of a building at 752 along with the two store fronts and 150 feet of plank sidewalk. The buildings at 746 and 762, one on each side of the pit, are said to be not in danger of falling. Eugene McIntosh, Jr., 403 West 147th street, a clerk in Reeves grocery store at 755, probably missed death by a few feet, as he approached Altritzer's store to get some change at the very moment of the second crash. At least he would have suffered serious injury, if not death. If the plank street which was now supported by only one major beam, had given away. It is considered miraculous that other casualties did not occur, as there were over 100 workmen in the excavation at the time. However, they fled to safety at the first sound of crackling timbers. Can't Blast for Boy Patrolman Boyle of the West 1520 street station, who was at his post at the time of the disaster, turned in a alarm for firemen, police, ammunitie and emergency units. Police Inspector Day summoned reserves and roped off the scene. Fire Truck 40 lowered ladders for the workmen to reach the street. Police Emergency Crew No. 2. under Sergeant Hines, arrived and quickly repaired a break in a gas main, while the United Electric Co. sent a flood light crew. Rescuers were hampered in removing debris in getting at the boy, as they could not blast because the earth and stone on the west side of the avenue was held up by only a single beam. Chief Building Inspector Kuehnle and other officials ordered the seventy-eight families out of 746, and also those from 741 to 755 on the west side, until it was believed safe for them to return. The new subway is deepest and widest at this point, and this section is being completed by the na Rocca Construction Company. The slide occurred almost at the exact point where Mayor Walker stood a few days previous white on a tour of inspection. This is where the Concourse branch of the jine will connect with the main line. Two Buried Alive Nearby The crash was caused by the rain swelling a mud seam behind a vein of rocks, thus undermining the east side of the street, said Chief Engineer Robert Ridgway and Col. John R. Slattery, deputy chief engineer of the Board of Transportation. Four blocks away, in the same cut, two men were buried alive and killed by a cave-in about two months ago. Gun Permit Fails to Halt Man's Arrest During a "numbers" raid upon premises 25 West 135th street a few days ago in which several persons were arrested by Patrolman Robinson of the Eighteenth division, William Edwards, 56, 8 West 135th street, was searched and found to have a gun in his possession, and of which he admitted ownership. Edwards displayed a permit which entitled him to have the gun on his own premises only. Somewhat in doubt about arresting the man, Patrolman Robinson consulted his eldest, Inspector Valentine. A warrant was then sworn out for Edward's arrest and he was brought to Brighton. Court Thursday he was magnate Goodman, who held him in $500 bail for Special Sessions on a charge of violating the Sullivan Law. WHITE DELICATESEN PROPRIETOR HELD PHILADELPHIA, May 28. Benjamin Minton, white, proprietor of a delicatessen establishment of 1823 North Twenty-third street, is charged with having murdered one Charles E. Brown. The shopkeeper claims that he killed Brown because Brown was attempting a hold-up, but Thomas Washington, 13, states that he, in company with several of his companions, had witnessed the shooting, and that Brown had not attempted a hold-up of the story. JOHN HUGHES HELD FOR GRAND JURY ON JOHN EARLS' CHARGE Former Says He Struck Latter Aftr He Was Attacked With Umbrella — Denies Robbing Although the charge of robbery against John A. Hughes, an ice dealer, 2007 Seventh avenue, was seriously questioned by Magistrate Goodman in Heights Court Friday, Hughes was held for the Grand Jury under $2,500 bail. The testimony was largely confined to the charge of assault upon the complainant, John E. Earls, 351 St. Nicholas avenue, who said that Hughes attacked him without provocation and robbed him of $62 at the home of his wife, Alice May Earls, 2335 Seventh avenue, Friday evening, May 18. Earls declares Hughes to be his wife's paramour. Got Tangled in Piano Through his attorney, Frank Blicca, white, 167 West 121st street, Hughes testified that he was visiting Mrs. Earls and that a Mrs. Breckenbridge, a roomer, and an elderly woman named Mrs. Birch were in the room at the time. Earls resented his presence, he said. After calling him a dirty name Earls struck him over the head with an umbrella, he testified. Hughes was corroborated by Mrs. Earls, who stated further that at this point Hughes struck Earls such a hard blow in the eye with his bare list that he wont sprawling across the room and got all tangled up in the piano where he sustained his broken nose and injured shoulder. Dr. H. M. McMayhon Embod, 2340 Seventh avenue, who attended Earls at his wife's home, testified that his shoulder was not broken. Mrs. Breckenbridge and Mrs. Birch appeared as witnesses for Hughes. Mrs. Earl's claims that after the fancas Mr. Earl's laid down on the bed, but before doing so he put his money under his pillow and withdrew it from the same place when he left the house. Hughes did not rob him, he said. Cabaret Owner Shot Four Times Cabaret Owner Shot Four Times (Continued from Page 1) tance from Ilhant's club. After remaining there for fifteen minutes, the chauffeur said, she came out and directed him to take her to 168th street and Broadway. The Plot Thickens She got out here and talked for five minutes to a white man seated in a coupe parked on the southwest corner, he said. The car bore a New York license with an out-of-town identification number. The blonde was then driven back to the club alone and spent ten minutes there with Ilhant and another man, the driver reported. The trio came out of the cabaret and Blunt and the woman entered the cab and she directed the driver to take them to the Haven avenue address. When they arrived the blonde leaped lightly from the cab and ran into the vestibule while Blunt stopped a moment to pay the driver. Looking suddenly around him, Blunt apparently saw his enemy nearby and darted back into the cab. Won't Tell Woman's Name Blunt sat in the car patting his feet nervously, the driver said, as if wondering what to do. Finally he got out of the cab and just as he closed the door the white man sprang upon him and shot him four times in the leg, then jumped into his coupe and tied. The woman escaped also. Blunt sank to the ground and the driver placed him in the cab and started for the Wadsworth avenue police station. On his way he met Detective Mullahay and Patrolman Mohan of the same station, and he stopped and reported the incident. Blunt was then removed to Columbus Hospital, where he was questioned. He refused to give the woman's name. Friends of Blunt say they know the woman well.

Probe Slaying Of "Alco" Sesom (Continued from Page 1) and when he saw Alco he said: "Why, Also, I didn't know this was your place." They walked down the hall, she said, and Reilly then demanded $8 graft and Sesom refused to pay off. "Rollly said he'd get the wagon." Mrs. Sesom related, "and Alco told him, 'Go get the wagon and be damned!' and Reilly left the house." A few friends then persuaded Alco to offer Reilly at least $3, she said, and when Alco crossed the street and approached Reilly in front of the Lincoln Theatre Reilly started right in clubbing him. Sesom grabbed Reilly's nightclub and beheaded him, whereupon Reilly threatened to shoot him. Sesom then let 'go of the stick and walked away. Then, to the utter consternation and aweful surprise of several witnesses, Reilly walked up behind Sesom, aimed his gun behind the man's ear, and fired a bullet into his brain, they said. Sesom was placed in a taxicab and removed to Harlem Hospital with the assistance of two friends and the officer. He died nine hours later, but before losing consciousness he reiterated: "Rellly shot me for nothing!" The man had $5,000 in jewelry on him when he was taken to the hospital, in the form of a diamond ring and stickinin. These were missing until a friend showed up with the stickinin, which he said he had removed from Sesom's tie as he helped place him in the taxi. The ring, however, fitting very tightly on Sesom's finger, could not be removed, said the man, and so it was never recovered.

BREKMAN 1970 HAVENEYER 1967 ST. Phone CUMBERLAND 6888 TATEN LANE AND NEW JERSEY HARLEM PREACHER IN N. J. SCANDAL Dr. Wm. H. Jenkins, Englewood Dentist, Sued for Slander by Mrs. Thompson Alleges He Is Responsible for Malicious Rumor That She Was an Intimate of Rev. Thos. J. B. Harris of Rendall Memorial Church "Can you beat it?" and "I told you also" are expressions often heard in social circles of Englewood, N. J., these days. The reason, pure and simple, is a $10,000 slander suit filed early last week in the Bergen County Circuit Court at Hackensack by Laura N. Thompson, winsome Englewood society matron, residing at 241 Epps avenue, again Dr. William H. Jenkins, prominent dentist in the town, whom she accuses of spreading malicious rumors tending to besmirch her character. In her complaint she alleges that on February 25 Dr. Jenkins met Thomas E. Davis, another Englewood resident, and said in effect: "I saw Mrs. Thompson with Rev. Harrell the other evening in the vicinity of Times square, N. Y." A. M. E. General Conference Ends The minister referred to in the suit was revealed in a later part of the complaint to be the Rev. Thomas J. B. Harris, pastor of the Rendall Memorial Presbyterian Church of this city, who makes his home at 81 Englewood avenue in Englewood. For several years he was pastor of the Rothany Presbyterian Church in Englewood until called to the pulpit of the local church about four months ago. The plaintiff also charges that Dr. Jenkins is responsible for a current rumor to the effect that she was seen in the rear of the Englewood cemetery in company with the Rev. Mr. Harris one night in February while the minister's car was parked by the roadside with lights out. She further claims in her list of allegations that the dentist accosted her husband, Benjamin, some time in May, and said to him with meaning, "You ought to hire a detective to keep an eye on your wife if you want to catch her." As a consequence, she asserts in summation, her good name, favor and social standing in the community has been injured, and her husband, a postal employee, and all of the other residents of the town have been led to believe that she had been keeping company with the Rev. Mr. Harris. Friday afternoon a reporter from The Amsterdam News presented himself at Dr. Jenkins' beautifully appointed office, at 66 West Palms avenue and asked for an interview. Although the little waiting room was comfortably filled with white clients, the dentist granted the interview. "I deny each and every allegation made by Mrs. Thompson," he said, "I do admit, however, that I approached Ben (her husband) one evening in February to inquire why he had been absent from our lodge meetings. "He is a Mason, and I being an officer of the same lodge, was naturally concerned over his absence. During the conversation which took place I did mention the fact that I had seen his wife in lower New York in company with the Rev. Mr. Harris. "I was driving in my car at the time, and there were others with me who also saw them. Moreover, I can discern no reason why she should blame me for a rumor which she well knows was old when I made my unintentional remark to her husband." "And that is that," interposed his light-hearted wife, putting an end to the interview. Dr. Jenkins will be defended by Judge Leroy B. Huckins, who presides on the bench in the Englewood District Court, while Mrs. Thompson will be represented by Robert S. Hartgrove, 575 Newark avenue, Jersey City. In the meantime, until the case comes up for a preliminary hearing Englewood continues to peep out from behind drawn curtains and to hold its breath.

Wade, when found, complained that he felt well, except a severe pain in his feet. Finally his breathing became difficult and kept growing weaker and the doctors explained that he sank gradually until death came. Wade's death brought the total number of known dead to 176, including four miners' bodies brought out of the mine Saturday morning, and another man rescued alive who also died later in the hospital. It is said that Mrs. Wade is prostrate at her home after receiving aowa of her husband's death.

C., May 28.—Continuing his almost daily political and religious tirades in the Senate, Senator Thomas J. Heflin, Democrat, of Alabama, last Saturday demanded to know of Governor Alfred E. Smith of New York whether he favors social equality and race amalgamation. Heflin pointed out that Negroes and whites worship together in Catholic churches. He wanted to know if Governor Smith, as a Roman Catholic, endorses it. "If you do," he declared, "you are for social equality; you are attacking the great principle of white supremacy. You are doing that which is dangerous to both races. It will not work." He also wanted to know what Governor Smith did when the Dyer anti-lynching bill was under consideration in the House in 1922.

It was a bill that sought to appeal to the Negro vote in the North; a bill that put a premium on the crime of rape; that encouraged attacks and assaults on white women. "It contained a provision that, if a Negro who attacked a white woman was killed, the white people of the county had to pay to his family $10,000, which was the insurance policy that was being provided in the event he succeeded in committing that crime. "Governor Smith, when that bill was up in the House, when the Southern Democrats were begging for aid, they asked your Tammany Democrats to help them. What did they do? They turned their backs on them. They did not give them a single vote. "Do you endorse that, Governor Smith?

Attention After holding up and robbing two speakeasie Friday morning, one bandit escaped and the other was shot and killed, and later identified as Earl Terrell, 30, 207 Edgecombe avenue. The robbers took nearly $1,000. Terrell was killed by Patrolman John Regan of the West 135th street station, who was attracted to the scene of the second holdup at 16 Bradhurst avenue by the sound of broken bottles which were being hurled after the fleeing men by their victims. Regan pursued and fired in the air as the man ran through an apartment house alley from Bradhurst to Edgecombe avenue near 144th street. One man was then out of sight but Terrell was not far away. Regan A man working in a field, using a tool to harvest crops. The background shows a city with buildings and smoke rising from the chimneys. How the growing telephone service increases in value ONE telephone by itself is a lifeless piece of mechanism. It has no more value than a hand without an arm. But connect it with a central office and it becomes part of a great pulsating system that can bring personalities together though separated by half the globe. And the value of such service increases as the number of telephones increase, bringing more and more people into the circle of conversational contact. It is this peculiar element of telephone service that distinguishes it from all other public services. While of very great usefulness, electricity, gas, heat and water services do not grow in usefulness to you as the number of users increase. What this growing usefulness has been in the past few years may be glimpsed from the fact that since 1921 the number of telephones in the Empire State has about doubled. In 1921 there were 1,392,341 telephones in the state, and now there are about 2,650,000. And their usefulness does not stop at state boundaries. They are part of the 18,500,000 in the nationwide Bell System and may be connected to many millions more beyond nationalboundariesinCanada,Cuba,MexicoandEurope. The broadening horizon of telephone service is making it increasingly possible to telephone almost anywhere, to anyone, at any place, at any time. NEW YORK TELEPHONE COMPANY then fired on him and the bullet ploughed through his back and lodged in his lung. Terrell dropped to the pavement and died before he roached Harlem Hospital. In his possession the police said they found $45 and a $250 diamond stifle pin taken from Tony Valente, white, 254 East 121st street. Valente also lost a $75 watch and chain which were not recovered. A revolver was also found in Terrell's possession, the police said. Indentification of Terrell was made by his wife, from whom he was separated. Shortly before 4 o'clock that morning the robbers, both well dressed, entered 401 Lenox avenue and held up the owner, Michael Reda, white, and relieved him of $102 in cash and backed out the door with menacing weapons trained on him. About an hour later they stuck up the Bradhurst speakeasy and netted themselves $613.04 in cash and jewelry from five men, including Valente, who were told to face the wall with their hands up. Atty.

At the end of every five minutes she is to cut in on your coin-box call, give you a warning, and say, "Nickel, please." It has been found that the talk-as-long-as-you-like method causes congestion in telephone stations in busy sections. The new slogan is talk-as-long-as-you-like, but pay-as-much-as-we-charge. N. B.—This new system may make it possible for you to get a few telephone numbers when you first call them. Club Chats Club Chats (Continued from Page 4.)

THE living-dining room combination is inevitable in smaller homes. The first thing to consider in the achievement of a correct living-dining room is the development of a living room atmosphere. The furniture necessary for dining purposes must find its being in a dual nature. Now, the piece of most importance is the table, a table that holds a lamp, flowers, etc., or when the time comes, holds the service for dinner guests with equal ease and grace. Folding top tables are especially designed for the part they assume in this combination room. Gate-leaf and drop-leaf tables extend their leaves to accommodate at least six places, and if further room is required, this may be obtained by inserting additional center leaves. After the meal is over, the drop-leaves may be lowered, and the table pushed back against the wall to serve as the living room table. Different Types of Tables Treatte-top tables or those of refectory type suggest themselves quite ideally for the "quick change" required of them, but are suitable only in rooms of ample proportions, since their size may not be diminished between meals. Extension tables, the tops of which slide and disclose a drawer with compartments for flat silver and table linens, are most adaptable. Telescope tables have two slides which pull out at each end supporting a cent" leaf, enlarging their dimensions. All of these tables are on display With the SORORITIES A Conference-banquet, sponsored by the local chapters of the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, as a part of its Vocational Guidance program, will be given on Saturday, June 9, at the West 137th street branch of the Y. W. C. A.

The conference will start at 2:30 o'clock; the banquet at 6:30 o'clock. Parents are also invited to hear the discussions on "What Does High School Mean to Us?" Miss Isa M. Gittens is the A. K. A. chairman of the conference; Miss Olyve Mae Thomas, A. K. A. chairman of the banquet. 75 WOMEN MAKE DENNISON NOVELTIES At least seventy-five industrious women are taking advantage of the free demonstrations and instructions being given at the store of Gelfand and Epstein, white, in the Dunbar Garden building, 2816 Eighth avenue.

Chests, commodes, solid front cabinets in mahogany or decorative color have always been considered interesting pieces for the living room, and never were they more welcome than in these Twentieth Century duplex arrangements. Their tops may hold low, graceful bowls for flowers, a favorite photograph, or a pair of candlesticks. Another Combination. There are many small houses and apartments where the kitchen contains a dining nook or alcove which serves as a dining room for the family, while the living room must offer sleeping accommodations. Here again, as in the living-dining room combination, the living room atmosphere must manifest itself. The sleeping arrangements should not be apparent. All appearance of "bedroominess" must be banished. The most important piece of fur- rances is the bed. It is a sofa-bed or day-bed. Day-beds or sofas.

OAKLAND, Cal.—Boxing fans who have been complaining that they were not getting a run for their money had no complaint to offer following last week's festivities at the Aulahurum. They got the greatest run they ever witnessed and Young Johnny Burns was responsible. Burns had been hired to box or fight ten rounds with George Dixon of Portland, but Johnny crossed the clientele by training for the next Pyle Bunton Derby. The pavement pounders now in New York have been running forward all the way, but last week Burns proved that he can run backwards faster than any other human being. Even before Dixon could meet him in the center of the ring to shake hands, Johnny started back-pedaling and he never made a forward step during the evening. Referee Eddie White called it a draw and the fans called Referee Eddie White a lot of other things—none of them complimentary. Dixon chased Burna at least five miles; he stopped dead in the center of the ring and pleaded with Johnny to make a fight out of it; he asked the referee to do something about it and was told to catch burns and puncture whom. When he hit Johnny in the stomach he was warned to "keep ed to fight in" Burns' style there would have been no fight. The Portland boy cannot be blamed for not catching up with Johnny, as he trained for a fight and not a marathon race. Against a fighter, Dixon was good. Last week he and no chance to win. He regrets the circumstances as much as the cash customers. After the fight, George Moore, Dixon's manager, waxed indignant: "Never in my life did I see a fighter run backwards as much as Bush, and I gave the fans some action, but my team no Charlie Paddock nor Charlie Borah. The referee should have thrown Burns out of the ring early in the fight when he kept on running. If he had stood up and fought, Dixon would have knocked him out as fast as he did in Portland two months ago. We were warned that Johnny might get on a pack-podal, but never dream that he would to such extremes as he did. If the thing had been advertised as a running race or tag or something it might have been alright, but I believe the public deserves a fight when it pays the price. Last time we came here they gave us Joe Roche, who then was in his prime as a runner, and then they feed us champion back-seller of the web, leading to fight here again, but well demand that Dixon be matched with a fighter and not a track athlete. Jack Beasley and Teddy Jernigan fought a four-round draw and there is a popular demand for a return match. Vernon Jackson decisioned Q. Klammer. Younner Parrell got the nod over Dallas Bateman Taylor. Taylor came back strong to defeat Letter Gill. Young Pancho Villa got the decision over Speedy Manado in the curtain-riser.

Who was on the mound for the Elks, also pitched great ball and was given wonderful ball for his teammates. The game was one of the best attractions that has been at Protectory Oval all season.

Bill Hockenbury, right-hander, was the first bushwick hurrier. After five innings, in which he yielded eight hits and four runs, he retired in favor of Stan Baumgartner. The Hurriers gave three runs and six hits, one run and one pitch, each brush into the left field bleachers by the portly Mackey. The Hildale mound nominee, Red Ryan, was not exactly a puzzle, being tapped for eleven blows, but the colored pitcher managed to keep Kandy kids away from the plate until the ball showed that the tally was 7 to 9. There was an abundance of extra base hits. Besides Mackey's home run there were eight two-baggers, "Home Run" Charleston of the Hilldals supplied three of these drives. Of them figured in the scoring. His first hit was Vairfield in the opening round. His hit was followed by Mackey's sacrifice fay and a single, by Canday in the fifth. In the sixth Charleston's double drive in Stevens and Ryan. Gerner of the Bushwicks got a pair of doubles. Canady, Weiss and Lohr got the other two baggers. Considering the muddy condition of the field the game was remarkably well played. A number of clever feelding stunts were pulled off by the Hilldale players. Semi-pro fans will have the opportunity of seeing two crack colored teams in action on Decoration Day. The Cuban Stars and the Royal Giants have been booked to play at Dexter Park.

BURNS NO FIGHTER AT ALL, SAYS G. MOORE McVey Will Be Denied Chance to Meet Walker --- NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 30, 1928 Another N.Y. University Star 16 International News Real Photo. David Meyers, of New York, in Throwing Event in Philad States College Athletic Me VE THE ENTHU New York University, Wha in Philadelphia During the athletic Meet. NTHUSIASM? Photo Shows David Meyers, of New York University, Who Won the Javelin Throwing Event in Philadelphia During the Middle Atlantic States College Athletic Meet. HAVE WE THE ENTHUSIASM? "AT some time or other in your life," writes a correspondent, "you must have taken part in certain forms of sport and theatricals to continue your work with such enthusiasm over the long period of time of which I have read and have been told you have been engaged in it. Your pages are really breezy without trying to impress us with your knowledge, and I look forward to them each week with anticipation of always finding some new curve or wrinkle." Thanks, my friend. It is indeed gratifying to receive a few lines like the above once in a while. Enthusiasm! How can it leave me? Today, induced by the above lines, I resurrected some yellowing clippings. Faded, perhaps, but still conveying the information of what a young writer twenty-five years ago termed a splendid encounter. Frankie Slack, the young Irish warrior, had tired himself swinging at the air striking elbows and trying to wrestle an opponent who absolutely obstructed refused to wrestle. Jim and Hardy Plits and the colored fan present at the Universal Athletic Club on that night were elated. The writer had apparently found himself and throwing what, he made believe was a haymaker; from his left mitt toward the jaw of Slack, he swung with all the force of his young body a right which connected solidly and Frankie Slack went down. The blow had been planned. Jimmie Pitts was the sparring partner and Hardy Pitts, his brother, was the manager who coached the writer for days on perfecting the blow. It worked, alright, alright, and as the fatal ten was droned over the white boy, we were happy because we felt that we could box. But it was at the same Universal that we received the poke that fully decided us that boxing was great—for the other fellow. The Pitts boys died some months ago. Jimmie first and Hardy after. Their parents were living on Lexington avenue, near Franklin, in Brooklyn, up to the time of the death of their boys and are still there, unless they have decided to return to the heights of Jersey City. And always did Jim and Hardy play a part in our athletic aspirations of boyhood days. There they were on the sidelines that day when combined Bayonne and Greenville met the Heights team. The crowd was belligerent. Maranl, hardy son of hardy Italian parents, lowered his head and with blazing eyes he came after us. It was Maranl who in previous games had tackled us and with quick blows, unseen by the crowd, had placed the fear of God in our heart whenever he charged. But for many nights before the warm fire at his house on Kearney avenue, Jim had ridiculed the powers of Maranl. He made us believe that Maranl thought he had our number, so that Saturday before Thanksgiving on the football grounds fronting Orange street when Maranl charged he was met with hard jolts from elbows, primed to receive him, and in a flash started the epoch-making run which gave us the game. It took the heart out of them. True, perhaps, the fear of Maranl catching us after that might have played its part in the wild dash down the line. THEN came the summer. The golden-haired Rosie Goula and her brothers "Nat" and Louie occupied seats under the shade of the "grandstand." Jimmie, who could not believe it, and Hardy, who would not believe it, informed us that we did not induce them to come, for, they argued, we who always "struck out" would not have the nerve to ask them, to see us going down to defeat on this balmy day in June. Of course, they did not know that "Nat" had added to their coaching during an entire week when they wondered why we failed to show up afternoons, hence when we swung two bats on our way to the plate and acted as if we were confident, my mentors were surprised. And there stood the crowd. Colored and white were mixed in, and as America had decreed, so it was. The whites were hoping that their kind would win, and the colored were pugnacious in their salutes. The ninth inning the score at 0 for both sides so far, with our side batting last and your hero ignoring the catcher dusting off the plate contemptuously, the pitcher smiling. Not a man on the bags. We had barely touched the plate with the remaining willow when Ike Rollly sent the sphere sizzling and cut the plate in two as we stepped back. "Ye gods, what do you want; what are you waiting for?" to us from God, and he laughed when he ought to have shown more loyalty to Korman. When Ike threw his second with a slow motion of confidence, he made the mistake of his young career, for we leaned on it and became the hero of Kearney avenue that night. In our joy it was third that we failed to touch and not second like Merkle, but we had time enough to hop back and plant both feet on the bag and race home. We walked home with Rosie, "Nat" and Loutie that Saturday afternoon and, enthusiasm? Say, did you over alt astride a mount with clean-cut limbs and body, to reach down and pat him and feel his muscles moving with the urge of the thoroughbred? God, fellows, to feel him bound away with you at the signal, to hear the boats of hoops on both sides and behold, to twist the rods around your hands, rise in the stirrups, bend over and without a thought of the whip urge him to stay in front—it is, indeed, the sport of kings. Not what you would call a regular race, but he was the son of Lady Nellie; his mother was full of fire and among the other three. I have it, by cracky, I have it, and I am so glad. Algarine was the name of the animal, owned by no less a person than Adolph Victoria. We thundered round the circular little track and as we made the last turn a quick glance showed that Algarine still hold the day. And by the lord Harry, believe it or not, I saw Alfred George, Wilmot Cooper and a most of others near that turn laughing their heads off. Algarine had started to pound as if he carried anvils on his hoops instead of light steel shoes, and Lady Nellie came like the wind on our right and breathed by. So did the other two, but, as I told those guys who saw Algarine almost stop dead (Continued on Page 7) Another Fistic Sacrifice THE BASEBALL TEAM Breaking His Morale by Refusing to Give Him the Chance When He Had Earned It, Jack McVey Lost to Courtney at Coney Island last Friday Night.

Our good friend Bill McCullough of the Brooklyn Standard Union informs us. A crowd of nearly 8,000 saw the classy Oklahomaan set a dizzy pace throughout to take eight of the ten rounds. It looked as though Courtney would give the match to Harlem in the fifth. Coming from a clinch George got by McVey's defense to send a snappy uppercut and followed it up with a straight right hand punch with plenty of power behind it which sent Jack to the canvas for a count of nine. During the closing minute of the round, Courtney faded violently to finish the job but the colored lined weathered the storm. Courtney went about his work very enthusiastically at the start. With the advantage of height and reach, together with the power of speed, he took the first foot forward ease. McVey never had a chance to start an offense of his own saving a left hook he put across in the third for which in return he received pleas.

RECORDS NEW CLUBS TO JOIN LEAGUE Reprisals Threatened and Even Cuban Ball Players Will Be Affected PHILADELPHIA—Two—possibly three—new clubs will be admitted to the Eastern League when the organization meets in Atlantic City late this week. If Alejandro Pompez, of the Cubans, tell that he was dealing a death blow to his institution in the event in his resignation to that body when it met here Friday, he is doomed to disappointment. Although Jim Keenan, owner of the Lincoln Giants (New York) quickly followed in the footsteps of strong, holden and Pompez, the league is still extant. Applications for the organization are investigated and the possibilities are that two of them will be reported favorably. Aroused at last by the constant sniping, the league will make immediate reprisals. Since its constitution says that the players of all clubs surrendering franchises are the property of the league, the venue will undoubtedly design any men they want. Another—and drastic—step will be taken. Not even the Cuban athletes are safe from the coming attack. It is no secret that one of the clubs seeking admission is a Cuban team the Havana Red Sox. The Sox have been the best team the Senior Pompey for some time and it is reported that several of his stars are ready to follow the example of Martin Dhigio and jump the reservation. With most of the high grade talent corralled by the Western Cubans and the Havana Reds, Pompey will be in a bad hole. The Bacachar Glants, with a fine ballbasket all ready for the opening games with the Black Sox team on several laminaries on one perennial, and dependent uniforms will shortly shift to the holdiments of the Bees. Sports lovers demand league baseball where something more than the result of the game is at stake. They want thrills which come with duels for batting and fielding leadership and the inevitable comparison which such duels bring forth. This has been proven by the large crowds on the field of the game from the independent ball peris. Carolyns too, too, white colored hat teams are the best 'drawing cards' in white ball parks, white teams are also in white ball parks, white teams are in white ball parks. A white team seldom or not or draws its guarantee at the sun down gates. Canadian Runner Wins $5,000 in Bunion Derby Phil Grunville, the colored Canadian runner, managed to get a good size of the purse hung up by C. Pyle in the latter's "Bunion Derby" from California to New York, when he drew down $5,000 for his end. Ed Gardner drew down $1,000, but all Touy Joseph got was the experience. Joseph is the youngest to have made the trip under such gruelling conditions. Under the able guidance of Jimmie Akers of California, one of the best known men on the coast, under made one of the best showings, running, and but for unforeseen circumstances would have made a much better showing. It is said that on one occasion the crackers through one of the towns where the runners passed drove Joseph twenty-two miles out of the town, made the showing and added a notable touch in the athletics hall of fame for colored athletes. Gardner O:K.'s Pyle Despite arguments to the contrary, Ed Gardner, eighth-place winner in Pyle's transcontinental tournament, is loud in his praise of C. Pyle and his treatment of the runners. Here is what he told a reporters of the Amsterdam News. "After running the News beat from Los Angeles to New York City I notice by the papers, 'Generally these in New York, that especially those in New York, that bless and unkind remarks are being checked up against Mr. Pyle and his 'Bunion Derby' runners.' 'However after running consistently for each one day and winning thirty-one races (each day counts for a race), twice as much is any other two runners. I find out that the misdid things said about the runners undergone by the runners are not true. Most of the runners drew out because of inference weather conditions and, on consideration of whole, Mr. Pyle was very fair towards The Talk of New York Grace Giles'.

TENNIS SINCE New York tennis players have been definitely assured of at least six tennis courts in Harlem, the members of the various tennis clubs have shown remarkable activity the past week in preparation for what promises to be a busy season. The first event of any note will be held on June 16 and 17, over at Philadelphia, Pa., when teams representing the States of New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania meet in annual contest for the Capt. Cockburn trophy, emblematic of State team supremacy, contests for the Cockburn trophy, and annually in the States of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania alternately. In 1026, the first year of connection, the games were held in New York City, and as there was no Pennsylvania Association, only New York and New Jersey played and New York was the winner. In 1027, Pennsylvania organized her association and contested with New Jersey the right to challenge New York for the trophy. New Jersey won this right, but the contest was not ended by New York, who thus retained possession of the trophy. These games were played under the auspices of the New Jersey Tennis Association, at Plainfield, N. J. This year the matches will be held at Fairmount Park, on the Woodford Courts, in Philadelphia, Pa., and the Pennsylvania Tennis Association will be the hosts. The annual six out of a possible eleven, comprised of four men's singles, two men's doubles, two women's singles, one mixed doubles, one women's doubles and one junior singles. Past contests, which have been well attended by fans from far and near, were keenly contested and highly interesting. The New York Tennis Association have appointed a tournament committee to select the best New York State Open Championships, to be held in New York City the week of August 13 to 18, inclusive. The New York open in the past has always drawn the best players of the country, and carries with it valuable points for national rating. Plans are being made for the opening of the new tennis courts being built by Mr. Everard Edmund, at 115th street and Fifth avenue. We have been informed that they are expected to be turned over to the players on or about June 2. A series of exhibition matches will feature the opening ceremonies. On Sunday afternoon, June 3, the first inter-club match games will be played over at the St. Mark's Tennis courts on West 138th street, when the Avons and Huguenots will hook up.

(Continued from Page 6) in his tracks when challenged by his mother, I at least rode him well up to the time he gave out. LOOK ye now, friends, a spanking breeze as we turped the point around the Lazaretta. She was the gig belonging to the then United States Consul Christopher H. Payne. Leo Ebbeson stood in the bows, supposedly to keep his eyes peled and report back to the skipper, yes, read it and weep, it was your correspondent in the stern with the tiller in his hand. Ernest Beverhoud sat amidship and was surcastic in his remarks that Comlyoung, or somebody by that name who was a telegraph operator, could beat the consulate gig any day in his life if we had to do the piloting of the Consul's gig. We ignored him and took a turn at the manshest, demanding that he bring us some jib as the wind was inclined to snucken up a bit. Then the wind perked up under the lee of Lazaretta Bay and gallantly we swung past Havensigh and approached the White Rock. I kept her head just a little to the left of the well known Rock, gave her a little more sheet and serenely we sped along. About this time Ebbson remarked that during the Spanish-American War the reporter boat Anita had run out of fuel while being chased by a Spanish man o-warman by the name of the Maria Teresa, which I cut short with a pre-emptory demand to know if we were far enough from the reefs abutting the Rock and which could not be seen when the tide was up. "Any bacon?" shouted Leo, saying he was imitating the captain of the Anita, "dump it down the furnace. Any —" Crash, crush, b-r-r-r-r! Leo sat down hard. With a quick jerk Beaverhoud had loosened the mainsheet and down it came. "Down with that jib, you doggone imitation of a lookout man," we shouted at Ebbson, and down came the jib. We had run right up on the reef, but all hands knew what to do in an emergency. The boat listed heavily to starboard, but we soon had the oars out and, thanks to the great Unseen Power that watches over fools, drunkkards and adventurous boys, we soon had the cutter in deep water again, with Ebbson and Beverhoud laughing fit to kill, when they thought how they would tell this tale on land with all the fixings which imaginative young minds could create to embarrass a skipper who brought them safely from under the lee of the signal station to which we had drifted while they laughed and we utterly unable to follow instructions for quite a while to maneuver our gig into the breeze and point her head for the Consultate and home. Beverhoudt and Ebbson will bear us out in this tale, as will George and Cooper on the losing of Algirine. Many still reside in Brooklyn who will recall the Franklin Slack affair. Space prevent us from telling of the gay start, the run and the jump from Captine, slowly stroking toward Carth, member of a band of about twenty swimmers. Our schooling for the handling of the tiller had been under Messrs. Felix and Jimmie Francis, indulged to our heart's content by Bobby McClean. The Francis whose name you see at the massthead of Tennis and Baseball on the sport page of The Amsterdam News is a brother of the Francis boys already mentioned, and he will tell you how when the mainsheet gave way that memorable day while headed for the telegraph ship known as the Groopler, its lips turned white from fear, while your correspondent, schooled in he knowledge that the well known "Bateau" would simply come up with lead in the wind, sat perfectly at ease. Enthusiasm, brother? Jack of all, maybe, and master of none, mayup, but in all forms of athletic activity in which our people have engaged we have tried a hand. Some day we'll have space enough to tell you now Robert Pry Dog appeared on our athletic field with a great big hole in his right shin after an explosion heard for miles, and which, when the dense smoke had cleared, left us spent because we owned that canister of powder left over from a hunting trip shared in by Willie Crook. Enthusiasm? It has given us the background which makes it possible to us to meet you with a smile and understanding when you throw the winning basket, breast the tape in front, put your man away in good fashion in the ring, bring the pliskin down the line and kick the winning goal. Yes, follows, even to the scientific bowling of "Francis" on the cricket field we have been behind the wicket and Francis himself will tell you that few know his splendid ballers better than we did. Shucks, with Ralph Emanuel on the long stop we formed a combination that gave the Britishers, schooled in the game from early childhood, a few pointers that brought us the championship more than once. YES, yes, that tune still haunts us. Wish we could hum it for you. There was Lionel Roberts leading the band in the pit as we danced on the stage of the Apollo Theatre from the wings. Blue tights, yellow waist band; the American colors bedecked our corner of the ring and as we shadow boxed, ducked, swung and cavorted, the thoughts kept obtruding that Hicks Johnson, standing in the wings on the other side of the stage, would most likely forget that he was a welterweight and we but a lightweight. It was a boxing exhibition. The glory of our defeat of Slack still abided with us—and our friends. With a flourish we wound up our exercise and slid into the wings. Then came Hicks Johnson. My, what perfect motion. He carried two light dumbbells and the crowd coared as he cut fancy capers. His time was short, and soon we were called to the center of the ring by Referee Morehead (he's still alive, too). Six rounds, two minutes each. Referee announced winner of each round until he came to the fourth and fifth. Gave your humble servant two in succession. Johnson rushed from his corner for the sixth and like a long ost brother we met him in the center and grabbed him. "The double cross, eh?" he breathed. "Nix, nix. Referee made mistake." We turned him loose and our quick retreat was perfect. From then on we kept away from Mr. Johnson, stabbing with light lefts to the face and retreating every time he thought he was getting set for a crusher. At times we also stopped short and elicited, completely baffling him his style was more English than American. But all's well that ends well. Luther Robles, who held the watch near my corner, played dumb when we whispered and asked him if a minute of boxing and two minutes of resting would not satisfy him (he, too, is still alive). At the conclusion we made our speech, praised Johnson to the skies and kept him enough good humor to continue the tour, which gave us two more appearances and a little money. Years after we appeared on the same stage at the Apollo Theatre, and while the present Naval Band of color in Uncle Sam's Navy discoursed sweet music we pleased them, at least so the newspapers said, immensely under cork. Reaching back many years before that we had had our mate training with Camille Wolterding, Ernest Birch and a few others, once we believe that with the enthusiasm which we have always had for these things it was not so hard after all to enter the work which has given the opportunity to tell of sports and the theatre. We are at least convinced of one thing, and that is if the stage had become our forte we would have given some of the so-called actors a hard run for their dough. Conceit, if you will, but even Frank Schiffman, manager of the Lafayette, used to tell us years ago he fell more satisfied paying us a weekly salary to tell his audiences at other theatres of his pictures than to place advertisements in our papers. AND HE PAID US MORE THAN HE HAD TO SPEND WITH THE PAPERS. Selah. We thank you. Edwards Brothers as Athletes OR the first time in human history, there is a Negro as track captain in a New York university. He is Philip Edwards. "Phill and "King," two black boys of New York City, whose native home is British Guiana, are leaders in athletics and college activities. Philip is a great athlete. His reputation has really lagged behind his achievements. He is not only the track champion of New York University, but holds the American 400 yards run in. In 1908, he recorded Philip holds another record; a record for recognition of the "murthy races," for neither Jew nor Negro has ever before been so honored in New York University athletics. And whenever a "murthy" man gets such honor, believe he comes it. Both of these athletic brothers have the university letter "King" in their name. In 1908, Phila brother, known among the boys as "King Edwards," recently won third place in the finals of the The Channel? 100 On Midnight of June 6 a Benefit Will Be Given at the Lafayette Theatre, Sponsored by Leonard Harper and Greenlee and Drayton, in an Attempt to Raise Funds to Help Pauline Jackson, Shown Above, to Swim the English Channel. our corner of the ring and as we sorted, the thoughts kept obtruding wings on the other side of the stage, a welterweight and we but a light- glory of our defeat of Slack still With a flourish we wound up our when out came Hicks Johnson.

He had come in first in the heats, but only third in finals. We looked up the family of "Phil" and "King" and found that the whole family have brains and energy and brawn. We will be a firmer believer in eusocial hereafter. Their father, Fitz B. Edwards, who lives now on 1838街 in New York, was Chief Magistrate's Clerk in British Guam, and their two sisters are real estate brokers in Harlem. Although the boys are tall, the sisters are short—in height—Miss Lucille Edwards is one of the real estate experts of the metropolis. The mother, Mrs. Julla M. Edwards, sent her daughters to the host schools in Guam, where went the daughter of the Governor, of the military officers and other prominent families. The parents beloled in the best for the boys. The boys are not only athletes but are honored in other college life. "King" is treasurer of the international Y. M. T. A. at the university. I am not one of those lying optimists who pretend that color does not hinder you in the United States, but if you have some of this Edwards brand of gilt in your color will not altogether prevent you in any state. WM. PICKEN BY REQUEST — RECITAL AND DANCE LEON JOHNSON, Tenor EIGHT Challenge to U. N. I. I. THE local West India Committee has launched its membership campaign with the avowed intention of enlisting 5,000 new members by the end of June. The only fault to be found with an organization of so many people is that it hasn't got a Marcus Garvey around to collect the fees. Wornout Mouthpiece THE National Bar Association met in Chicago recently and laid plans for a comprehensive program catalyzing Negro lawyers of the country to render an even more effective service to their organization. We deem it a good idea, and herewith suggest that the lawyers think up another way of tolling a fellow who is about to be electrocuted that the law cannot treat him in that manner. MUSIC By EDGAR T. ROUZEAU. St. Mark's Choir At Carnegie Hall Minute details in the life of Ilia watha, that remarkable character created by Coleridge-Taylor, were given a living hue by the choir of St. Mark's Church in its offering of that masterpiece at Carnegie Hall Monday evening. It was a presentation far removed from the petty joys and sorrows of life's crude realities and we actually envied Prof. E. Aldam Jackson's pleasure as he revealed by degrees the vital musical forces portrayed by each individual singer—and described an entire theme colorful in its cumulative effect and effusively blissful in its adagic movements. Others might disassemble with us upon the intrusive intensity of the male voices in "Hlawatha's departure" and, again, on the quantitative tone graduation of the female voices in "Hlawatha's Wedding Feast," but these faults are disgarded because of the skillful conception of dynamic graduation—contrasting the stronger and weaker tones; the appealing melodic activity; the crescendo and descrescendo, and the beautiful shading characteristic of the whole. Professor Jackson used his soloists effectively to inject a variety of enchanting changes in the rhythmic and harmonic structure. We unreservedly praise Pennin Harrington tone. Minute Brown Springing was delightfully surprising and heartwarming us conclusively that her musical senses are very keen. Jacob Lowe, baritone, showed vast improvement over his initial appearance some time ago, but once again, we hesitate to commend him upon his conception as regards familiarity in his tone registries. We heartily commend the two veteran accompanists, Sonoma Taylor and Lydia Mason; they are both efficient and intelligent artists. In closing, we take the liberty to say that the choir is truly deprive of the "Hilawath" of Coleridge-Taylor's dreams.

Burleigh Vesper Service Completing his thirty-fourth year of continuous affiliation with the choir of St. George's Church, Harry T. Burleigh, perhaps the greatest arranger-composer produced by the NeoRace race, was significantly honoured when the fourth annual vesper service, featuring in its entirety the works of this eminent musician, was offered by the church choir Sunday afternoon. Mr. Burleigh sang five solos divided into two groups, in the first he rendered "Give Me Jesus." "Don't Be Worry, Traveler" and "I Stand on the Ribbon of Jordan." The numbers in the second group were: "My Way's Cloud" and "Be Bold Man Stand on the Road and I'm tired." The choir rendered one of Burleigh's spirituals, "Steal Away," and later Mr. Burleigh joined the choir in singing another of his arrangements, "I Don't Feel No Ways Tired." "Southland Sketches No. 5" arrangements for violin by Burleigh were offered by Edwin Ideer, white, violinist, who earlier in the program had also offered transorm White's Nobody Knows Knows "frolic the Soap." An also-known "Dop river," by Burleigh, was rendered near the close of the program by Mignon Sutorinis. The church was packed by an eager and highly appreciative audience. Gail scores, "Hymn to the Night," by Tipton, and "Star," by Rodgers. The program started suspiciously by the offering of a choral arrangement in which Pauline Langford, Anna Charles, Thelma Pinkney, Fred Thomas, Annie Robinson and Helen Ware took part. Violin and piano duets were offered by Muriel and Adolphin Heart and Hildie Cordice and Pauline Harper; piano solos by Jeanneette Smith, Anna; Charles, Milfred Ranks, Alma Jackson, Irene Pre尔, Lillian Henderson, Alle Ware, Lilian Inoue and Anna Charles. Sevilla Robinson gave an exhibition of his adapness at the piano; Irene Perr, soprane, rendered a vocal solo; Pauline Harper and Muriel Heart offered a piano composition for four hands; Addie Mae Jenkins, recitalist, offered a recital, and an exhibition of artistic dancing was presented by Florence Hunter. A composite musicale for the benefit of the Parish Home for Aged Women was given Thursday evening by the Men's Club of St. Philip's Church at the church schoolroom. Marguerite Avery, soprano; Sadie M. Greendale, contralto; Leon Johnson, tenor; David L. Johnson, Jr., violinist, and Sally Smith, pianist, were the artists featured on the program. Edward Margeson and Helen Sherwil were the accompanists. The Men's Glee Club of the church also contributed to the program. Cecil F. McNair, basso-buffo, offered two pleasing solos. Sunday morning during the services at the Union Baptist Church. He is a graduate of Lincoln University and was a member of the Lincoln University quintet during the years 1922-23. Until recently he was also a member of Hall Johnson's Singers, from which organization he covered his connection to take up concert work. The Young's Memorial College Jelly Quartet was heard in a program of spirituals offered on May 21 at the Warwick, N. Y., A. M. E. Zion Church. Last Tuesday soon they sang before the Port Jervis Rotary Club at the Miniskit Hotel, and on last Wednesday they offered a program at the Washingtonville Presbyterian Church. Mudge Parks, baritone, and Sam Kahl, tenor, rendered a program of African folk songs and classical quadettes at the Native African Union, 290 West 135th street, Sunday afternoon. The Halleinjah Quartet gave its virtual at St. James' Church Thursday evening. This group possesses about everything that is required for the varied presentation of Negro folk songs, spirituals and plantation melodies, and they enhance this vulture with an ironic, decorative style, pleasing personality and fine expression that might well be enveloped by similar units.

Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN Does It Pay a Woman to Aid a Man Financially? Does she who gives or lends a man money stand higher in his sight than she who doesn't? "No" and "No again!" I've geldom known it to fail. No sooner does a man and himself "slitting pretty" than he gets "don't care-ish" and begins to look around for someone who is indifferent to his wants. Many a time has a woman helped a man through school, only to help him graduate with a diploma one hand and a marriage one for some other gift. The other. Many to get into business and found that he has made good, only to spend it on another woman. Lending is the cause of a great many broken friendships. You lend a man money, and when you need it you have to hint more or less gently for it. Just try and get it without a lot of rigamarole. First of all, he'll get angry because you hurt his feelings by not trusting him to return it of his own accord. He'll feel sore for the simple reason that he is indebted to you, but just the same he'll make you wait for it. Avoid this unpleasantness as much as possible. It is just not good to lend—and it always ends in regret. If you've got such a surplus, lend it to the bank and be independent. PLAN TO COMPLETE HOSPITAL NEXT YEAR The work of remodeling and reconditioning Lincoln Hospital, 141st street and Concord avenue, into a modern, first-class institution will滴淋be completed by the summer of 1929, according to a recent announcement of Dr. Walter H. Conley, medical superintendent of the Department of Welfare. Completion of the new nurses' home, costing $400,000, adjacent to the hospital, is expected by July 1 of this year, and the work on the hospitals' interior cannot be started until then.

And This Despite the Fact That They Offer Larger Picces for Less Money, Investigation Discloses By L. BAYNARD WHITNEY Icemen are having a hot tiro icemen usually receive a own race, while most Harlem a white icemen quite warmly. Half as many white as colored i 110th and 155th streets, and the Investigation revealed the p trucks to be 75 cents for a cake pounds to allow for shrinkage. 25 cents per 100 pounds. Icemen are having a hot time in Harlem. However, Negro icemen usually receive a very cold reception from their own race, while most Harlem Negro housewives receive their white icemen quite warmly. There is said to be about one-half as many white as colored icemen in Harlem, say, between 100th and 155th streets, and they are usually Italians. Investigation revealed the price of ice for dealers who have trucks to be 75 cents for a cake weighing something over 100 pounds to allow for shrinkage. That makes the wholesale price 25 cents per 100 pounds. If the dealer is a wholesaler like Luca Belozano, white, 416 West 123th street, he buys it for 70 or 75 cents and sells it to cellar men for 85 or 90 cents a cake and to stores for $1.20 a cake. The extra charge to cellar men is for hauling. If the dealer is a retailer, like Clyde Dickens, 157, West 132nd street, he pays 25 cents and sells to housewives for 60 cents and to stores for 40 cents per 100 pounds. It was revealed, however, that dealers who buy the year round get their ice for 75 cents a cake, while all newcomers and "season dealers" must pay 90 cents—or 30 cents a hundred, against the other fellow's 25 cents a hundred. In the ice business is the average Harlem Negro, and not their Italian competitors. Time and again they have been told by colored people, "I don't want no nigger iceman." Mr. Dickens gave the writer an interesting example: In the tenement at 69 West 130th street he said the janitor gets free ice from an Italian dealer as pay to keep colored icemen out of the building. "He had even told the tenants," said Mr. Dickens, "that the law only allowed one iceman in the bulding. But I had occasion to go there to serve ice to a relative, so I was made the exception." One day he was sending a piece of ice on the dumwaltier in an Conditions invariably force them both to sell to tenants for 60 cents a hundred, but the man who pays 90 cents a cake often shortweights his customer in order to even up his profits with the man who pays 75 cents a cake. Hot Competition The Italian iceman accuse the Norro iceman of "running the business." Fred Devito, white, 2193 Seventh avenue, a tlz Llaxie dealer, said that the colored dealer will sell his ice for whatever he can get to customers, for 40, 45 and 50 cents and to stores for 30 and 35 cents a hundred. The colored dealers deny this charge and declare that the white dealers resent their more honest dealings. Frank Desanti, white, who parks his keep-cool cart on the corner of Seventh avenue and 127th street, frankly told the writer that he is not in business for his health. He admitted that he sells ice for 65 cents a hundred or more and that he refuses to take what he considers the low profit the colored dealers make. He also accuses the colored dealers of giving their customers larger pieces of ice for less money and of taking his customers away.

"He had even told the tenants," said Mr. Dickens, "that the law only allowed one iceman in the building. But I had occasion to go there to serve ice to a relative, so I was made the exception." One day he was sending a piece of ice up on the dumbwaiter in an apartment house on Lenox avenue, where he had just gained a few new customers, he related. Several persons called down the shaft for ice and he cut the pieces accordingly. When the colored woman on the first floor looked down and saw that he was colored, she raved and informed on him to all the rest. He sold that ice somewhere else. Negro Dealers Organize With the support of a comparatively small number of loyal customers who believe that Negroes should deal with each other, forty Negro dealers have organized the Harlem Ice and Coal Dealers' Association, with headquarters at 157 West 132d street. The officers are: S. C. Reeves, president; J. Raymond Jones, vice-president; James A. Stephens, secretary; J. P. Miller, treasurer, and James R. Ward, chaplain. Each dealer who joins the association will receive a certificate of membership and have the seal of the organization painted on his vehicle. The officers are elected for a term of one year. The purpose of the association will be to protect themselves against unfair competition; to acquaint the public with the true conditions and, if possible, to protect them from being robbed by short-weight experts; to give full weight and honest prices themselves, and to render better service.

Harris and Van Star at Lafayette Fine Features in Sprightly Musical Comedy at Seventh Avenue House There are more real "stop-the-show" features in this week's offering at the Lafayette Theatre than in any of the wonderful musical comedy revues which have appeared in the popular Seventh avenue playhouse in many months. The hit of the show was little Joey Harris, who appeared at Keith's Palace last week and who was promptly corralled by the management of the show starring his famous father — Bud Harris — and Sammy Vanderhurst (known on the stage as Sam Van). Little Joey has just turned sixteen. He is a handsome lad with the face of an Apollo, the voice of an angel, a smile that makes all who see him happy and a pair of dancing feet which already are offering competition to the best-known tap dancers on stage. Little Jay brought the house down at the Monday matinee. It is a treat to see him. Aside from Joey's performance, Harris and Van, who also appeared at Kethi's Palace last week, gave a performance which places them side by side with Bliem and Jeremiah. This performance of Glenn and Jenkins and Reporter and Cooper. Van gave a little imitation of the dancing of Bill Robinson (Bojangles) which made the audience gasp and applaud. Alex Jackson's Junture. Oceans also allowed their share of the honors. This famous band has just returned from a tour of the West and are making their first appearance in the East. The band has lost none of the pop and quality which made them so popular in the late Florence Mills. Both in the "pit" and on the stage, they wove a garment of wonderful music over Leonard Harper's wonderful theatrical creation—a fast-moving mixture of more fun, music and dancing than has ever before on ninety minutes of entertainment. Mention should also be made of some of the other members of the cast: Slim Thompson, Billy McLaren, George Williams, Lucille Heganin (the Philadelphia songbird), Little Yoshi and Company (famous Japanese jugglers and acrobats, the Kid, Kokoro, beibling threaten devil and godman). In addition to the rove described above, this week's program at the Lafayette also includes "Man Crazy," a stirring melodramm and romance and a revival of one at Charlie Chapin's funniest comedies. Dancing Kiddies at Labor Lyceum This Friday Night For many years Brooklyn has been a center for some of the best things along entertainment lines, and more so when it comes to the little kiddles, as the borough has allowed them and here the youngsters seem to enjoy a more personal supervision at the hands of parents taking pride in their upbringing. It is no easy task to take seventy-five youngsters and inject the discipline necessary to bring them to success, Januching, hence, when the Misses Anna Small, Rae Ollley and Anna Jones assumed the task and got the excellency which is noted in the training of the youngsters, we can but join their many friends in support of a trip to Labor Lyceum next Friday night to see the kiddles in action. From jazz to nosthetic dancing, to say nothing of the warbling of the little dardlings. One need not be a parent to appreciate and enjoy the splendid work of these little ones. On the contrary, it is cause for regret and envy to those parents not presenting the kind of program which will be on top at the Lyceum on June I. Mme.

Critics and Public MY DEAR LUCETTE—Despite the tendency of Jupiter Pluvius to keep us in a state of wetness not at all in keeping with the trend of the times as he issues nothing stronger than aqua pura, Aurora Borealis rose on yon far distant horizon the other morning and placed us in a state of joviality which impels these few lines to you.

On a hilltop overlooking a beautiful bay we recline for the nonce under a spreading chestnut tree. On this spot no village blacksmith has smote the air while shaping the footwear of a Dobbin, nor do we spy any village church where the angelic tones of some country maiden ascend to heaven on the Sabbath morn. But below us are wide spreading meadows. Daring sparrows chirp and twitter not far from our recumbent form, and the sunlight glitters on the distant waters as we unfurl the publications of our contemporaries to see if we have been found wanting in trying to serve the people of sundown hue that read. A careful survey of these journals whose publishers and well-meaning writers tell of the inferiority not only of your most humble servant but of the journal which he serves discloses a state of affairs which you would think me derelict in my duties if I failed to report to you.

They were immediately advised of the entire lack of the aesthetic art of camouflage upon the part of their young and inexperienced reporter. As we continue to record for edification the words to follow, that beautiful little ballad entitled "Just Around the Corner" is coursing through our mind, for here I find that I gave my good friends an opportunity to again run the old and time-worn pictures of Josephine Baker and the count by a bit of news which they hastily and without malice afterthought tore from our columns on Tuesday night. These hands prepared that bit of news and we would recognize it anywhere; besides, my darling Luccette, it came direct from a source of which we are willing to wager filthy luce of the realm they are wholly ignorant Before continuing what I hope you will find a most interesting chronicle of the dolings of some of our sundown folk in the fourth estate. Let no digress for a moment so that I will not leave myself open in a vulnerable spot when these chips fall upon guilty heads seeking an "out." It has been an accepted fact for the past quarter of a century in sundown journalism that a reproduction from the columns of the white journals of certain news can do no harm; a kind of morsel thrown our way because of a condition hard to overcome. The Offays control the news gathering associations and when they run upon certain things touching and appertaining to unbleached Americans the first to hop upon it is considered the one with first claim. But those moved with an honesty of purpose and earnestness to serve their own people would never think of reproducing editors and the personal opinions of writers without giving credit where credit is due. Tell me, Lucotte, what do you think of a guy who will resort to such methods? Never mind. You need not say as you must always remain a lady. Open before me is a copy of the London publication known as the "Encore." issue of May 3; also staring up before eyes ready to pop out is the er—er—er, well, why does a chicken cross the street? In the "Encore" we note an article under the caption of "The Hypercritics." You will remember, beloved sweetheart, that Theophilus Lewis, added and abetted by your humble servant, said some strong things in these columns not so very long ago—things which made some of our friends in the world of the theatre squirm—also some so-called writers. Utterly unable to intelligently refute the things said the writer friends of certain actors (?) went wooxy trying to edge into the good graces of the performers by making it appear as if they were truly concerned and that Lewis and your correspondent did a great injustice. Well, what do you think, now? A week after the "Encore" arrived in these United States SON SNEL (pronounce that back and forth and surprise yourself), gave the cockeyed world the same article from the "Encore" without as much as changing the caption to prime the opinion for American readers. Yes, dear, "The Hypercritics" with a picture boldly stifling up in the middle was thrown to our world, but old eagle-eye caught it and Alvin Moses laughed long and loud. Running to cover like a small boy caught with the jam still sticking to his fingers, the gentleman who tried to put over the most brazen fake of recent times hastily informed the world that the "Encore" was a nice British journal devoting quite some space to the doings of our performers in Europe. It was the most ridiculous got-from-under you ever saw, but we doubt it will work as the publishers of the "Encore" will most likely rise to the occasion and the Negro performer in Europe and elsewhere is due for a shock. Hark, how soft the happy evening close; 'tis the hour of sweet repose. The sun is sinking; the sparrows are heiling them to their nests. Nature in all her beauty is preparing for the hour of darkness. Look! On yonder hillside the smoke from burning brush is ascending to the clear, blue skies, and soon bright flames will pierce night's darkness. Silent stands that innanimate thing which will soon be like something imbued with life. It is our IRON HORSE, rubber shod, which must convey us to that civilization from which it brought us earlier in the day to send you this note on the wings of love, written amidst scenes of grandeur, which leaves our heart entirely devoid of resentment against our contemporaries for their foibles, follies and frailties. And so the closing while I subscribe myself as ever.

The sole purpose of this notice is to definitely and permanently state my position with regard to my attitude toward the colored actress in show business. I have been criticized by some unknowing persons for the manner in which I have been done in Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds of 1928" now playing at the Library Broadway, in which I have a prominent part. Exception has been taken to having the names of Adelaide Hall and Ada Ward, stars of the same show, placed in front of my own. The criticism of this arrangement seems to rest upon the fact that these two artists have appeared in Harlem cabarets, thus disqualifying them (in the opinion of those who criticize) for so promulgating a place in the billing. At least my name should appear first, they say. THE REASON WHY. First, let me say that I myself asked Lew Leslie to bill the three of us just that way, with the girls' names in front of mine, and, if possible, to be given much more prominence. The reason? Well, in the first place, I have made my stage reputation and the girls now have theirs to make—and "Blackbirds" is given a thousand points harder for a colored woman to win the same measure of stage success as it is for colored man, and he has it hard enough. Only those who are in the business, especially the women, can really understand this condition. It seems almost impossible for a colored actress to get a real outfit like the Big Tits. The main reason is that she is shut out of practically all opportunities for accretions, and the white managers will not give her a fair chance. But not speaking of the dramatic stage, and even there they are limited. The remarkable success of the late Florence Milla is exceptional and has never been equalled. But just count up the outstanding colored men who are successful on the stage—now count the women, and there's your answer. At this point I wish to take vigorous exception to Floyd Calvin's reference in the Pittsburgh Courter to Ada Ward and Adalela Hall as war horses out of cabaretas." They are no more "war horses" than war horses out of cabaretas. And what of it if they did work in cabaretas? Haven't white acres been done good on Big Time? WILL BOOST OUR GIRL! Therefore, let it be known that as long as I am in show business I shall give my fullest support to any colored female performer who has the slightest chance of making good, no matter who she is. As long as I occupy my present position of success on the stage and it is going to help one of our girls to the front I am going to do it, because it's the ones ever get a break!

It is Fannia Laine, as the young wife, and Susie Sutton, as the disappointed and sourish rival, who was the first to be the standoutness of the one is matched against the malice of the other. Edward Thompson played the young husband in many manners, and J. Lawrence Criner made the part of a level-headed old father quite a feature. Alice Gorgas, as a sister who has turned her back by marrying a man and Arthur T. Ray, as the English nobleman who married her, are abundantly competent. The unpleasant character of an adventurer falls to the lot of Ted Blackman, and when he is unmasked and arrested, in the bargain, every detail is from famous Scotland Vard who helps restore peace and confidence. But, anyhow, the sour and malicious gossip is "kicked out," and "Woman Against Woman" ends happily. The music and comedy revue, "Chocolate Soldiers," would be the skateen just to behold the skateen Alhambra Girls, in knikki, going to war. George Wiltshire is the handsome commander. The "enemy" is Sandy Burns, in skirts, trying to keep the soldiers from taking Apus Brooks, as the husband and an army cook. And while Dainty Hilda Rogers is playing her farewell week before sailing for Europe to fulfill foreign engagements, Amanda Randolph, leading the girls, sets the audience wild. Russell Lee, with his gorgeous lyric tenor voice, captured heartily the scene, the weight he did his comic skit, "The Dumb Con and the Fly Gal." All these features and many more will be presented at the midnight show Wednesday. The chief photoday for the last half of the week is "The Bullet Mark," with Jack Donovan as star. WESTERN PLAY NEXT WEEK. The triple programs continue at the Alhambra Theatre—a dramatic play, a musical comedy revue, and a full bill of photophases at every performance. The management has been asking patrons what part of the triple programs they like best. Often the answer is, "I like them all best." Next week, beginning Monday, the dramatic scene shifts to the gold mining country. The play is "Girl of the Scenic Outdoor Production and there are gamblers and hangers on of the 'und man' type." The musical comedy will be a distinct novelty, "Harlem Topics," supposed to be the name of a magazine. The covers of the book part, the characters and the human contents and play their parts. Of course, Sandy Burns will be there with plenty of marry pals. The photoplay feature will be "The Bolle of Broadway" with Betty Compson and Herbert Rawlinson.

A. McKinley in Brooklyn, under direction of Alexander F. Miller.

The splendid assistance given by seersong pupils and the musical plays and the musical program contributed in a large measure to the success of the evening. "Fool's Errand," a Belasco prize play, was the "piece de resistance" and was exceptionally well done. The work of the Misses Ethel Bennett, Martha Taylor, Beatrice Henderson and Marie Dodson was very colorful and artistic, with auftiered and unusually sincere. S. Malcolm Dodson, as "Parson Williams," and Miss Elizabeth Hickman as a sister of the Church Council, were a scream. They supplied enough comedy to send the audience into its of laughter. "Aftermath," a serious drama, was made to live through the fine work of its cast. Miss Frances Humphrey as "Mam Sue" and S. Augustus Walker rendered classic bits of characterization.

Johnson as the venerable "Brudder Moseby," illustrated in a life-like manner, has contrast between the Negro of formality and the lower Marvel "so well, and the independent, forceful youth of today.

TON FISH FOR VICE-PRESIDENT W. HOWARD, Republican National Mississippi, had a brilliant inspiration nomination of Hamilton Fish Jr., old Republican candidate for Vice-President be found in all America. If a highest type of American, that man, his family has had an active part in history since the time of the Rev. who was Secretary of State, preeminent. TON FISH JR. has followed the ancestors. Though born to riches of America, he has too much of a mere society man. He has given to the service of his country, on the hills of Congress. In war he served well known as the "Fighting Fifteen" produced the Battle Monument bill theism of Negro soldiers in France, and bill against lynching. ES are not the only people he has up the bill to provide $10,000,000 women women and children, and he as the author of the Zionist Rescue the resolution to bring to America town Soldier for burial at Arlington best spirit of America, and the Rep itself by nominating him. KEEP THE WORD AFRICAN SPEARE ASKED: "What's in a wise to answer the question. Romany any other name would smell as for the word rose is not worthy of fact, there is a great deal in a miit it, go up to Reverend Hill and c PROPOSED to unite all the Negro name of the "United Methodist Episcopal a calamity. The proposal is should take away a word which has groves in all parts of the world. Forty-two years, ever since Richard the name "African Methodist Episcopal a great institution founded and groves. The name suggests the party it is sonorous and impressive. Methodists unite under it? What they should not discard the word A THE CHIEF ARGUMENT of the Negro Democrat in New York has been the difference between Tammany Hall and the Southern Democracy. Statistics have been adduced to show that while the Southern Democrats were hostile to the Negro, Tammany Hall was consistently liberal in its image and appointments; that Tammany Hall was independent of the national Democracy, which is dominated for the South. THIS ARGUMENT is losing force. The actions of Tammany in the past year have shown nothing but truckling to the South. No Northerner of equal prominence has made more numerous and propitiating visits to the South than Mayor Walker, and no one was more prominent than he at the dedication of the Robert E. Lee memorial in Georgia. A toddling descendant of Lee was made an aide of the Mayor wearing the uniform of the Confederate army, which spent four years trying to destroy the Union. It was announced in all the newspapers that no Negro delegates would be sent from New York to the Democratic convention at Houston. Last week a statement was published to the effect that District Attorney Banton, a Texas Protestant, was in line for the Democratic nomination for Governor of New York, to succeed Smith, should he get the nomination for President. THIS LAST ITEM alone would be enough to show how far the New York Democrats have gone and how much further they are prepared to go in the hope of conciliating the South. For the most liberal city in the nation to be governed by a man from the most illiberal section of the country is an unpleasant prospect, not only for the Negro, but for all who believe in tolerance. AS A GENERAL THING, in politics and elsewhere, concessions are made on both sides for the sake of harmony. The New York Democrats, on their side, have made open and repeated concessions. But the Southern Democrats have made none and do not intend to make any. With the convention at Houston only two months away, a Negro was lynched in Taxas last week and no action was taken against members of the mob. The present policy of Tammany New Yorkiking case of tolerance bowing the knee of bigotry, it is the more humiliating because it is unnecessary. One can understand a Republican who caters to the South in the hope of breaking its political and cranial solidity. A Democrat does not need to, for the South will go Democratic no matter who heads the ticket. HAMILTON FISH FOR VICE-PRESIDENT PERRY W. HOWARD, Republican National Committee man from Mississippi, had a brilliant inspiration when he surged the nomination of Hamilton Fish Jr., of New York, as the logical Republican candidate for Vice-President. No better man could be found in all America. If any man represents the highest type of American, that man is Congressman Fish. His family has had an active part in the making of American history since the time of the Revolution. His grandfather, who was Secretary of State, proclaimed the Fifteenth Amendment. HAMILTON FISH JR. has followed the path of his illustrious ancestors. Though born to riches and the oldest aristocracy of America, he has too much character for the idle life of a mere society man. He has given his time and strength to the service of his country, on the battlefield and in the halls of Congress. In war he served with the 369th infantry, better known as the "Fighting Fifteenth." In Congress he introduced the Battle Monument bill to commemorate the heroism of Negro soldiers in France, and he fought for a Federal bill against lynching. NEGROES are not the only people he has fought for. He brought up the bill to provide $10,000,000 for food for starving German women and children, and he served the Jewish people as the author of the Zionist Resolution. He also composed the resolution to bring to America the body of the Unknown Soldier for burial at Arlington. He personifies the best spirit of America, and the Republican party would honor itself by nominating him. KEEP THE WORD AFRICAN SHAKESPEARE ASKED: "What's in a name?" but he was too wise to answer the question. Romeo's opinion that a rose by any other name would smell as sweet signifies nothing, for the word rose is not worthy of the flower. As a matter of fact, there is a great deal in a name. If you don't believe it, go up to Reverend Hill and call him Reverend Hell. IT IS PROPOSED to unite all the Negro Methodists under the name of the "United Methodist Episcopal Church." This would be a calamity. The proposal is all right, but the name would take away a word which has inspired millions of Negroes in all parts of the world. For one hundred and thirty-two years, ever since Richard Allen founded it in 1796, the name "African Methodist Episcopal Church" has stood for a great institution founded and governed entirely by Negroes. The name suggests the power of the denomination; it is sonorous and impressive. Why cannot the Negro Methodists unite under it? Whatever they decide to do, they should not discard the word African.

His crime was especially flagrant, as his sworn duty was to protect property instead of stealing it. But his crime was no more unusual than the progress of his case in court. It took two trials to convict him, in spite of his confession. Though he had stolen $15,000 worth of property, he was permitted at his first trial to plead guilty to petty larceny EDITORIAL PAGE IN THE language of Jessie Fauset, "there is confusion." Never before in the history of the country has there been such a complexity of political conditions. The Republican and Democratic parties have marked the political division of the nation for the past sixty or seventy years. Since the triumph of Abraham Lincoln in 1860, the Republicans have been in power for fifty-two years and the Democrats for sixteen years. The American people booed essentially Republican in policy and purpose. According to any fair and impartial census, about two-thirds of the people would be technical Republicans. The Democratic party has become the party of protest. Its chief source of strength is in the provincial South. The so-called Democrats of the North are merely so classified for reasons of political advantage; on all fundamental principles and policies they are basically Republican. In the impending campaign, Hoover and Smith are slated to face each other. The fame of both of them rests upon their efficiency as administrators. Neither has any definitely declared or defined attitude on the great national issues which agitate the people. Both parties and all candidates pretend to stand for the Constitution as it is written, including the Fourteenth Life. Week-Er Week-End Trips *Bu ADOLPH HODGE* A FEW weeks ago I ment could be taken from New following are some trips, either as camping trips or I I have never found myself nor have I been refused at a vertised for tourists. If a lit selection, and a little intelligent proach, rarely will one meet Drive from New York to east side of the Hudson River the first night's stay. Take eral waters on the second degoes several hotels and recharges. FEW weeks ago I mentioned several short trips which could be taken from New York over the week-end. The following are some trips, by auto, which may be enjoyed either as camping trips or by stopping at hotels at night. I have never found myself unwelcome at any tourist camp nor have I been refused at any house where rooms are advertised for tourists. If a little judgment is exercised in the selection, and a little intelligence used in the manner of approach, rarely will one meet the least affront. Drive from New York to Albany by either the west or east side of the Hudson River, then to Saratoga Springs for the first night's stay. Take in the races and taste the mineral waters on the second day. There are owned by Negroes several hotels and rooming houses with moderate charges. Third day, drive along beautiful Lake George, visit Fort Ticonderoga and John Brown's homestead. Fourth day, proceed to Ausable for the boat trip down the stupendous rocky chasm, which the Ausable River has cut through the mighty masses of rocks, then on into Montreal. You stay at the most pretentious hotels or at the home of comfortable-living Negroes, just as you desire. There is enough here to entertain the visitor for several days, chief among which are the beautiful Cathedral of Notre Dame, public buildings, docks, residential districts and a trip to the Indian village at Caughanawaga. I got very little thrill from the boat trip through the rapids of the St Lawrence River. It is about an eight-hour drive from Montreal to Quebec. The best way is to proceed on to the little village of St. Anne Du Baupre for the night, leaving sightseeing in Quebec for your return. Hotel Regina is the largest hotel and makes one welcome, but there are several smaller native French inns where one can test his ability in the sign language, unless he can recall a little of his high-school French. Hotel Elz Gigura St. Anne is one of the best. A trip to Quebec is not complete without a trip to this quaint French village, where miracles really happen. I am sure you will want to stay more than one day among these hospitable French rurals. On the return to Quebec stop for a few minutes at Mt. Morency Falls, then spend the rest of the day browsing about Quebec. Visit the Government buildings; Plains of Abraham, where General Wolfe defeated Montcalm; the fortress of Quebec, considered the Glbaltar of America, the harrow, old-world streets of the "Lower City" at the base of the cliff. From Quebec there are several routes back to the States. If you intend to return to Montreal, do not try to go further than Deschambault for the night. Stop at Villa Belle Vue; F. D. Bolsvert is the proprietor. If you intend going to Boston, cross the St. Lawrence to Levi's, then to Augusta, Me., then to Portland—to Boston—to Worcester—to Hartford—back to New York. Another very pretty route is to enter Vermont by way of Sherbrooke, then through the White Mountains of New Hampshire to Boston, or continue on down the Connecticut River valley to Hartford—to New York. A third interesting route is to return to Montreal, then visit the Thousand Islands and continue to Rochester and Niagara Falls. Head, then, towards New York by way of the beautiful Finger Lake region and Binghamton Trail to Scrouton, Easter and home. under a grand larceny inc forced another trial, and ever third degree burglary, with a from, jail in five years. Douc case, if they were made know under a grand larceny indictment. Public indignation forced another trial, and even then he was convicted of only third degree burglary, with a sentence that may release him from jail in five years. Doubtless the undercurrents in this case, if they were made known, would make a strange story. --- Political Confusion teenth and Eighteenth Amendments. Neither will enforce them, if successful.

The return trip should be made by way of the Lincoln Highway to Marion, Ind.; Columbus, O.; Pittsburgh. Gettysburg, Philadelphia and, finally, to New York. Richmond This trip leads out of New York via the Lincoln Highway to Philadelphia. Oxford, Baltimore, Washington to Richmond. The return should be made via Petersburg, Norfolk, Cape Charles to Lewes, Dola, Cape May, Atlantic City and Asbury Park to New York. A One-Week Tour A pleasant tour of seven days can be taken to Gettysburg through the Blue Ridge Mountain, down the Shenandoah Valley, Grand Caverns, Natural Bridge, Richmond, Mt. Vernon, Washington and Valley Forge to This trip should cost less than $40. The motor bus trips to Boston, Philadelphia and Washington are comfortable, scenic and cheap, ranging from $2 to $10. Know New York State The shore-line of New York State, including that of all islands as well as the main coast, is 470 miles. This year 492,844 persons in the Empire State filed State income Tax returns. The average tax paid was $119.79, which was 15 per cent greater than the average paid in 1927. Jay Gould made the first survey of Delaware County, N. Y., in 1853, and subsequently wrote a history of the county. A Federal quarantine prohibits the importation into the State of nursery stock after 1930. State experiment stations are now testing seedling stock of various kinds to provide a home-grown supply. New York City has had three City Halls. The first, the Stadt Huys, was built as a tavern in 1642. The second was built in 1699, and the present City Hall was begun in 1803, 125 years ago. The Adrondack Mountains in New York State cover 5,000 acres, and the Catskills about 1,000. New York State farms in 1927 produced crops worth 451 million dollars. To Deliver Address The Rev. M. C. Strachan, pastor of the 127th Street Adventist Church, will deliver an address to the graduating class of the Baltimore Academy. Baltimore, on ctment. Public indignation then he was convicted of only sentence that may release hire unless the undercurrents in this would make a strange story. Bu KELLY MILLER Chicago Richmond Protestant. We are faced with a peculiar political anomaly. The South, the bed-rock of Democracy, is threatening to bolt the nomination of Smith; the Middle West, where the Republican party was born, is threatening to bolt Hoover. After all has been done and done the divisive issue is not political but economic. It is a battle royal between the city and the country. It will not be between the Democratic and the Republican parties, nor yet between the North and the South, but between the sections which produce raw materials and those which manufacture them into ready made articles of use. The issue of human rights has practically disappeared from American politics. It has become merely a question of the production and distribution of wealth. The Ku Klux Khan, which figured so threateningly for years, has gone the way of all ephemeral movements. The moral issue involved in the Eighteenth Amendment is no longer the foremost theme for discussion. The scene of battle has shifted to the Middle West, where the contention is flatly and frankly economic. There is but one issue which stops a complete political union between South and West, and that is the traditional attitude of the race problem. As the two parties approach union of policy on this issue these two sections will converse. Aside from the tradi- Arre Would You Know Life? WOULD you know life?

The items named are the abstracts of which life is the concrete, with its multifarious ramifications. In other words, they are the constituent elements and life is the sum total, which is determined by the process of analysis and synthesis. There are individuals who have an inattainable appetite and an unconquerable desire for knowledge of life. They would grasp its full Soldier and Sailor In the Civil War Frederick Douglas at Age of 83 Only Survivor at Great Neck It seems altogether fitting and proper, at this season of the year, to give honor due those brave and daring men who defended our country in 1863 and '65. In this class belongs Comrade Frederick Douglas. Comrade Douglas served this country during the Civil War to both the capacity of a soldier and a sailor. He was a participant in such notable battles as Gettysburg Antietam Bull Run and numerous others, which he describes in the most interesting manner. He always adds that, were he able and his name again called, he would go through it all again. Frederick Douglas, at the age of 83, resides with his wife and grand-daughter in Manhattan, L. I. His health is now broken and he is a partial invalid, he always seems hearty and has a cheery remark and smile. He is the only survivor of that historical struggle in the town and is a member of Thaddeus Stevens Post, G. A. R. in New York City and an honorary member of the Veterans of Foreign War. Post in Great Neck, L. I. By R. A. ADAMS tional attitude of the Republican party on the race question, which has caused a solid South, there is no sharp line of demarkation between the existing parties. The Republican party as such is doomed unless it keeps alive this issue. Already William Jennings Bryan came within an ace of national victory by appealing to these two sections on the issue of free silver. LaFollette, the father of the progressive "bloc," twice threatened the Grand Old Party by independent action on economic lines. Senator, Borah is threatening from the far west. This new alignment—the union of the South and West against the North and East, as suggested by Senator Nye in the June issue of Plain Talk—will not take place in the present campaign. There is lack of time and leadership. If a political genius should arise with the persuasive eloquence of Bryan, the rugged intellect of Borah and the indomitable spirit of La Follette, who could pitch his appeal above the level of the race, calling upon the essentially agricultural section to unite and take national control, the result might be easily consummated within from four to eight years. I expect to live to see the Fifteenth Amendment enforced, but it will not be by direct action or willled purpose, but as the incident of larger national movements based upon deep seated economic principles. meaning, understand its mysteries, scale its heights and fathom its depths. None can ever understand life in its entirety and know its insoluble mysteries, but much can be known if one is willing to pay the price. To know even in part the ups and downs, the joys and sorrows, the fullness and emptiness, an individual must come into vital, intimate contact with life as it is lived—not as explained in beautiful theories. Can one know the sea by standing on the shore watching the tides, the surging billows and the breakers that roar? Is it possible to stand upon some lofty mountain and know what is in the valley beneath, or vice versa? Can a person remain always in the sunlight and yet understand the darkness and the horror of the dungeon? Could one standing by the wayside looking at the soil become informed as to the science of agriculture? Can a person living in a palace surrounded by all luxuries understand penury, deprivation, squalor and physical degeneracy? To all these questions the answer is NO! Much life-knowledge may be obtained by observation, research, theories, deductions, but, to know more fully one must drink of the bitter waters of disappointment; feel the poisoned sting of enmity; experience the piercing darts of calumny; feel the trampling of the heel of oppression and persecution; know the pinch of hunger; trend the dolorous way of humiliation; drain the acrid cup of sorrow—and, perhaps, be crucified! Being thus impressed with the gravity, the danger, the cost of this knowledge, it would be well for every one who has such a desire to give serious consideration to this query: WOULD YOU KNOW LIFE? Then let it be remembered that even Jesus the Christ found it necessary for Him to come down to earth and touch human life in order to complete his redemptive work!

"Up From Slavery" Translated Into Turkish The first volume of a series of books for young people, translated into Turkish, and published by the International' College of Smyrna, is a translation, of Booker T. Washington's "Up From LETTERS - - - Countee Cullen Poet (1903 —) COUNTEE CULLEN was born in New York City May 30, 1903, the son of the Rev. Frederick A. and Carolyn Mitchell Cullen. He attended the New York public schools, received his A.B. degree from New York University in 1925, his M.A. degree from Harvard in 1926, was brought before the attention of the public by his prize winning poem, "I Have a Rendezvous With Life," which was conducted by the Poetry Society of America. Cullen is a Negro among Negroes, an American among Americans. He displays in his poetry an invention almost endless, and a fancy extremely exuberant and gorgeous. His versification is rich, flowing and harmonious to a degree which, perhaps, no other poet since young Cotter has surpassed. His imagery is luxuriant and romantic, his poetry is sweet in its sentiment, enchanting in its melody, and exceedingly delightful for the vein of pensive tenderness and pathos. the poetry of Cullen is in some respects artificial, abounding in conceits and overstrained metaphors. But though he seldom writes twenty lines without something false and unnatural, his general conceptions are almost always noble. He often exhibits in their execution an astonishing richness and sublimity of imagination. His great excellence lies in the mingledness and harmony of his ustensiles. He possesses great lyric elites. Wit and humor are scarceer; be found in his verses, neither is there much felicity in natural description. Cullen and Hughes are the two youngest poets of the present century.

TO PROPERLY know and to be able to discuss forcibly how and why disfranchisement in the South, to know the workings of the Southern Democratic party, past and present, a reading of "Fadeout of Populism" is necessary. The author of the book, Joseph C. Manning, was engaged in the last great fight that, for a few years, broke "the Solid South." Commentators of national reputation, great writers of the fame of men like Charles Edward Russell, have strongly praised "Fadeout of Populism." Mr. Russell says it is the most valuable historical contribution in years. J. B. Weaver, a prominent citizen of Des Moines, Iowa, and a son of General James B. Weaver, who was a candidate for president in 1832, states that the book is a powerful presentation of the southern political situation. "Fadeout of Populism" exposes the operations of the Ku Klux, South and North, and shows the failure of the leaders of the Republican Party to combat the Klan. It is of interest throughout. There is running through the book an appeal for human justice for colored people. A Key to By LEOL A Key to Culture By LEOLA LILLARD Wedding Anniversaries THE observance of wedding custom when celebrated formal reception. Newly first anniversary by assembly party and talking over the cving the year. The bride, as a on that day. THE observance of wedding anniversaries is a very pretty custom when celebrated in the form of a formal or informal reception. Newlyweds sometimes celebrate their first anniversary by assembling the entire original bridal party and talking over the events that have transpired during the year. The bride, as a rule, wears her wedding gown on that day. Invitations to weddings and wedding anniversaries take fanful forms at times; recently, some have been using a beautiful buff bison with gift edges. You can always feel that you are correct in using white bristol board as the material for printing or engraving invitations. To illustrate the particular anniversary to be celebrated, one may use materials such as leather for the third anniversary, wood for the fifth, tin for the tenth, etc. versary celebration congratulations and good wishes as the hap py pair stand to receive these exhibitions. The groom makes acknowledgment of any toasts which may be given. The following is a correct list of wedding anniversaries. First year—Cotton. Second year—Paper. Third year—Leather. Fifth year—Wooden. Seventh year—Woolen. Tenth year—Tin. Tenth year—Tin. The same rules of etiquette accepted for the guidance of guests at the original wedding ceremony are in force in celebrating anniversaries. When presents are sent to those celebrating their anniversary, they should be symbolical of the occasion. Gifts of greater importance are sent to the bride, but should be addressed to the couple and not to the wife only. If the gift is not to be symbolical of the anniversary, it is best to send just flowers with a congratulation card attached. However, it is far more appropriate to send a gift that would suggest the number of years since the date of the nuptial, as stated on the invitation, such as wooden articles for wooden wedding anniversaries, tins for tin wedding anniversaries, etc. Guests usually offer at an anni- Slavery, according to a recent bulletin of the Near East College Association, which adds that the hook has already been distributed to libraries and booksellers, as the first step of a plan to thus spread social ideals in Turkey and the Near East. cal character is similar; but the genius of Cullen is more wild and energetic and, on the whole, of a higher order; that of Hughes is more still and contemplative. The language of the former combines richness and romance and splendor with its chasteness; that of the latter is severe in natural simplicity. Cullen has more fancy and invention. He delineates objects that are in themselves beautiful or sublime, clothing them at the same time with associated intellectual and moral conceptions. The poems of Cullen are the intellectual creations of his academic mind; those of Hughes are more spontaneous and natural. Yet Cullen is indeed a mighty poet, possessed of an imagination grand and powerful, equaling perhaps what any writer has exhibited before McKay. He is the author of "Color," a book of poems delicate as old rose leaves; "Copper Sun" and "Carolina Dusk," the latter in anthology. Cullen will leave his position as assistant editor of Opportunity to go abroad in July for a year's creative study. His receiving one of the Guggenheim Fellowships for 1938 makes this possible.
