REGULAR WEEKLY EDITION Complete in Two Sections
'BOJANGLES'ROBINSON SAYS HE GAVE HIM RUBBER CHECKS
Accused Man Recently Lost Appeal on "Numbers" Charge; Failed to Appear and $2,500 Bail Was Forfeited—Once Convicted as Gambler
John Diamond, 46, well-known Harlem "numbers" banker, 81 Edgecombe avenue, already convicted on a charge of possessing policy slips, was held in $2,500 bail on a charge of grand larceny when arraigned before Magistrate Dodge in Heights Court Friday. The case was adjourned for a further hearing. William "Bojangles" Robinson, star of "Blackbirds" show on Broadway, was the complainant. Robinson lives at 247 West 149th street. Bail was continued at $2,500 and Diamond, held for the Grand Jury yesterday in Heights Court. Diamond waived examination.
In Special Sessions Court re-
Inmate Diamond was given an inde-
inmate sentence; in the penitentiary
on the "number" charge, but
he appealed his case and was releas-
under $2,500 ball.
Diamond's conviction was upheld,
however, but he did not return to
court when the decision was given.
His cell was forfeited and a warrant
was issued for his arrest. In the
county he ran afoul of the law
on Robinson's charge. Diamond's
case for not appearing in court
was that he did not know when the
decision was announced. It is said.
He was represented at Heights
court by Attorney Morris Schreiber,
while 15 Park Row.
Robinson declares that Diamond
asked him to cash two checks, one
for $1,000 and the other for $500,
given on the Corn Exchange Bank,
and that they were returned to him
marked "insufficient funds." This
is said to have occurred on Dec. 24,
1828.
Early last week Robinson had
Diamond, who is reputed to be
weekly, placed under arrest by Det-
tives Garvey and Flinter of the
West 132th station. Time was
asked for in which to allow Diamond
to make good, and after waiting a
half hour Diamond was taken to
court for arraignment.
The police records disclosed that Diamond was convicted on a charge of possessing police slips and fined 25 in 1924. The following year he was arrested as a common gambler and sentenced to the penitentiary April 22, 1925, by Judge Allen, who suspended execution of the sentence for good behavior. Diamond's conviction was on a "numbers" charge on November 22, 1926, in the court of Special Sessions.

Fraternal Man Left No Will; Vestris Victim's Sister Decreed Right to Action for Recovery of Estate Lost When Ship Foundered
Believed by many friends to be the owner of valuable property in New York as well as in Englewood, N. J., where he died, Charles L. Thorpe, 56 West 135th street, was declared to have left an estate "not more than $2,500" in New York when his sister, Miss Dolly Thorpe, 292 Rosemont place, Englewood, was appointed administrator last Wednesday.
Jacob W. Porter, 31, a musician, 1980 Seventh avenue, who stated he was bandmaster of the 369th Infantry, was discharged Wednesday by Magistrate McKiniry in Harlem Court from a charge of grand larceny involving the alleged theft of an automobile.
Porter was arrested by Detective Wallace of the automobile squad when he was found in possession of an automobile which was identified as the property of Anthony Forte of Huntington, L. I., which was stolen on Dec. 17 from in front of 210 West 125th street.
On Jan. 16 Detective Wallace saw the car in front of a repair shop at 304 West 120th street. The car had been taken to the repair shop by Porter, who was arrested.
Porter told the Magistrate that the car had been standing in front of his home for several days and had been stripped of most of its parts.
Porter said he thought the car had been abandoned and for that reason he brought it to the shop for repairs. Forte admitted that the automobile was badly in need of repairs when he saw it in the possession of Porter. Porter was then dismissed.

PORTERS' BROTHERHOOD ROCKED BY DISSENSION
Jealousy Quarrel and Murder Jails Wife
Convicted on her own confession of having stabbed her husband to death following a quarrel, Mrs. May Thompson, 28, 566 Deck street, near Prospect avenue, was sentenced early last week to serve not less than two and a half and not more than three years at Auburn Prison for Women, by Judge Barrett in Bronx County Court. Early in January Mrs. Thompson pleaded-guilty to a charge of manslaughter.
Chester Thompson, 30, the husband, was stabbed to death with a jackknife during a quarrel on October 11 last, and Mrs. Thompson had her alleged paramour, Thomas Green, to bury the knife and then sought to fasten the crime upon him. Green was arrested, but was released when Mrs. Thompson confessed. He was a boarder at the woman's home and had been her sweetheart before her marriage, it is said.
Mrs. Thompson was defended by Attorney Walter E. Dillon, white, 1050 Anderson avenue. He pleaded self-defense for his client, as the husband was beating her at the time of the stabbing, it is reported.
Armed Burglar Gets 5 Years in Sing Sing
Not less than five and not more than ten years in Sing Sig prison was the sentence meted out to William Summers, 22, 40 West 132d street, by Judge Cohn in Bronx County Court, Thursday for Summer's crime of burglarizing the home of James R. Hollywood, white, 1115 Jerome avenue, the Broxr, on December 19, 1928. Summers implicated a friend as an accomplice, who is still at large. When arrested by Detectives Miller, Kroner, Smith and Flynn of the Highbridge station, who had been tipped off to the "Job," Summers was found armed with two fully loaded revolvers and in possession of two suitcases containing clothing and negotiable bonds, having an aggregate value of $500. He admitted having entered Hollywood's apartment with a pass-key.

The attack was reported to have been made in Plunkett's office following a short altercation over some court papers. Plunkett is the new head of the clerical force, having come to the place two months ago during the post-election shakeup. Giving his version of the affair, Mr. Lynch said he went to the court Thursday for certain papers in a dispossess case for one of his clients. He was informed that the papers had been lost from the records by a clerk. The lawyer then proceeded to the chief clerk's office. H. Masterson, white, first deputy, was in the office with Mr. Plunkett and the attorney explained the matter to him. Mr. Lynch charges that Masterson showed little interest in the matter and showed no interest in investigating. While the two were speaking Mr. Plunkett ordered the lawyer to get out of the office. When Mr. Lynch failed to comply, he declared, the

Mr. Lynch said he struck back at the clerk and Masterson, aided by other court attendants, separated them. The lawyer could ascribe no cause for the attack and declared he had met Plunkett but twice before.
The report of the lost papers was made to Mr. Justice Sullivan, who arranged for the lawyer to complete his case. While Mr. Lynch declined to reveal his course in the matter, he declared that he would carry the matter to the limit.
Mr. Plunkett made a complete denial of the affair yesterday at his office. He did not know the attorney, nor did he attack him. "Attorney is 'all wet' in his accusations," he said.

Felonious Assault Charge Against James Glover, Identified as Assailant, Is Dismissed and He Is Held for Homicide
Following the death in Harlem Hospital early Friday morning of Alfred Adams, white, a waiter of 25 West 125th street, who was shot in the hallway of 201 West 127th street on the night of Jan. 25, the charge of felonious assault pending against James Glover, 23, porter, 153 West 129th street, alleged to have done the shooting, was changed to homicide.

Owens, white. Owens arrested Fletcher on the charge that the latter laughed at his traffic directing at McKinley street and Connecticut avenue northwest, March 11, 1927, and also assaulted him. Fletcher filed suit for $10,000 damages. The charges against Fletcher were dismissed in police court.

Charge "Herbist and Scientist" Used Mails to Defraud
Edet Efflong, 165 West 127th street, self-styled Nigerian scientist and a manufacturer of beauty goods, today awaited action of the Federal Grand Jury here, following his arrest last week and arraignment on charges of selling a powerful magic potion by mail.
Arraigned: before Commissioner Garrett W. Carter of the Southern District last Wednesday, Effong pleaded not guilty and was released under bail of $1,000. Aldes of District Attorney Tuttle declare that Effong is definitely responsible for numerous people over the country being defrauded of various amounts of money.
The specific charge upon which he is held is that he offered to sell John Woodbridge of Indianapolis an incense or powder guaranteed to bring back an errant wife, lost money, a stolen cow or anything else lost, strayed or stolen. It is charged that among the alleged victims was one man in prison who paid $5 for a portion of the powder, believing that it would give him his freedom from the bars holding him.

Following sensational charges of dishonesty and corruption against Roy Lancaster, secretary-treasurer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, 239 West 136th street, by Frank R. Crosswaithe, then special organizer, a serious split occurred in the official ranks of the Brotherhood, of which A. Philip Randolph is general organizer. William H. Desverney, assistant general organizer, known as the "daddy of the Brotherhood," also expressed extreme displeasure with Lancaster's business methods.
Urban League Worker Reported Much Improved
"His condition is much improved," was the report yesterday concerning Ira de A. Reid, 31, 405 Edgecombe avenue, director of research of the National Urban League, who is ill with pneumonia at Harlem Hospital, where he was removed in a serious condition at 3 o'clock Tuesday morning, January 29. He had been suffering from a severe cold and continued his activities, but was forced to bed on Monday. Physicians at Harlem Hospital reported his condition grave until yesterday morning. Mr. Reid's private physician was Dr. Ernest R. Alexander, 234 West 133th street, who was summoned when Mr. Reid was taken to his bed.

Subsequently, in November, 1928, Mr. Crosswalthe was dismissed from the Brotherhood by the national executive committee on charges of disloyalty and non-production and Desverney was asked to resign six weeks later on a charge of disloyalty in that he was suspected of being a spy for the Pullman Company, which he served for thirty-seven years before starting to unilize the porters, with the assistance of Randolph.
Randolph Tells Why
At a meeting of the porters Thursday night at St. Luke's Hall, 125 West 130th street, to which newspaper men were especially uninvited, Randolph purported to give the true reasons for Crosswathe's and Desverney's dismissal by the committee, which was composed of himself and Lancaster and eight porters. A reporter of The Amsterdam News attended part of the meeting, but succeeded, however, in learning the full details of Randolph's speech from reliable sources.
Randolph defended Lancaster and said that his critics did not know what they were talking about, as they employ a certified accountant and accurate bookkeeper. He read statements submitted to him by the accusers, but said that that would not change his attitude, as protection of the Brotherhood was his chief interest, and that he wished to make no statement that he had not made before the committee.
He admitted that Crosswathe had made certain suggestions to Lancaster which had been reflected and that the impression was that Crosswathe was meddling.

NEGRO LABOR PROBLEMS DISCUSSED
Second Annual Conference Sponsored By B.S.C.P. Head Held at Urban League
New Editor of Opportunity, Miss Ovington, Rev. Shelton Hale Bishop. Rev. Turner and Others Among
"Problems and Future of Negro Labor in American Industry" was the essence of a three-and-one-half-hour discussion and the keynote address before the Second Annual Negro Labor Conference at the Urban League Building, 204 West 136th street, Thursday afternoon, under the auspices of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. A. Philip Randolph, general organizer, was chairman of the conference.
Prominent persons of both races expounded their views on the subject and gave three-minute discussions of it.
TWO
Later the same evening a special meeting for Pullman porters and maids was held at St. Luke's Hall, 125 West 130th street, at which time Mr. Randolph explained why William H. Deswerney, assistant general organizer, and Frank R. Crosswalte, special organizer, were voted out of the Brotherhood last November. Reporters were not invited to attend this meeting.
Mr. Randolph opened the conference with his keynote address, in which he disclosed the Negro worker's depolarable economic condition in a machine age, and his present relation to the trade unions. "If the Negro worker is not employed he cannot get a union card, and if he has not got a union card he cannot get a job." Mr. Randolph said.
The speaker pointed out the difficulties in 1925 of organizing the porters' union within a race that had no labor background whatever. He declared that the whole question of race relations is tied up with the question of labor, as in the instance of the St. Louis race riots which were caused, be said, by friction resulting from Negro labor from the South taking the jobs of white workers.
Attitude of the Press
In speaking of "The Negro Worker and the Press," Elmer Carter, editor of Opportunity Magazine, said that the attitude of both the white and colored press toward the Negro labor question was based on reader interest and nothing else.
Although the Brotherhood appeared to be an exception with the white press, which gave much space to this constructive effort of the race, Mr. Carter said that in reality no exception was made as it was done only on the basis of reader interest, which in this case revealed a Negro organization defying a vast white corporation and demanding recognition from it.
The Negro press opposed the organized labor movement in general because it discriminated against the Negro, Mr. Carter said, and represented inequality; therefore it opposed the Brotherhood. The Negro press believed in the tenets of the Brotherhood, however, and finally came to support its cause, said the speaker.
Civil Liberties
Mary White Orlington, white, chairman of the N. A. A. C. P. addressed the conference on the subject of "The Negro Worker and Civil Liberties," followed by Forrest Baleley, white, director of the Civil Liberties Union, who took a very dark view of the race question, which he described as being "so unknown and so terrifying complicated."
Church on "Unsafe Grounds"
The Rev. Shelton Hale Bishop, pastor of St. Philip's P. E. Church, while speaking on "The Negro Worker and the Church," declared the church to be on unsafe ground in sponsoring the cause of the uneducated, being placed in this precarious position by the influence of capitalism.

port labor unless moral questions are involved, and I know they are," he said, "so the church ought to have a very definite message and program to give to the workers." The minister declared that the church had always been interested in workers only as individuals, but never as organized bodies, which resolved the matter in a question of a personal problem as against a corporate problem. At the present time there is nothing in the church "with any teeth in it" which can be given the worker as a significant message, and there is no program, he said. Therefore, organized labor should demand from the church a definite program of action the same as it demands from the courts or the press or other institutions.
"So why place all the responsibility on the church when the workers do not demand it. The workers probably think that the church has nothing to contribute," said the Rev. Mr. Bishop. Because he had never been an industrial worker he could not have the full consciousness of the worker's problems, he said. The white churches often have a virile, effective message and program for the worker because many of the white ministers have been miners, laborers and so on, he stated.
"Until we get a conscious spokesman for the church, or a virile demand from the workers for us to dictate a message to them, the church will not have any message or program."
Cleveland G. Allen, newspaper correspondent; Richard B. Moore, president of the Negro Labor Congress; the Rev. A. C. Garner, pastor of Grace Memorial Church, joined in the discussion.
Support Must Be Forced
Leroy Bowman, white, professor of economics at Columbia University, who addressed the conference on workers' education, said: "You must compel these institutions (the press, church, unions, etc.), to support you. . . . Don't think that a little education will solve your problems."
He stated that the American Federation of Labor has not helped the underdog. Organizations, including rotary clubs, that do not include the Negro are not sincere and only have "the pretense of terminology," he said.
"The church has no right to talk morals unless they seek to help the very lowest—down to the underdog, the Negro, the workers. Sometimes religion does not get us together, but hard, cold facts get us together."
A group of one per cent owns fifty-nine per cent of the nation's business and pockets three-fifths of the profits. Prof. Bowman concluded.
Women More Exploited
"The Negro Woman Worker and Organized Labor," was the subject of Rose Schneiderman, secretary of the Women's Trade Union League, who declared that, of all workers, women are the most exploited. However, there does not exist in the women's unions the same prejudice that prevails in the men's unions, she said.
During the past ten years nearly all work in the laundries has been given to Negro women, who replaced the Irish, Polish, Jewish, Italian and Syrian women because, Miss
NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1929
Schneiderman said, employers found Negro workers much cheaper after the foreign women demanded more wages. The present wage, she said, is from $12 to $17 a week, and that such a wage makes it impossible for women without any other source of income to care for two or three children, as they often must do.
The Negro women during strike periods always proved themselves more loyal than the men, even at bitter sacrifice, said the speaker, but that the strikers were lost because the workers were starved out by the employers. The Negro working girl is satisfied just to get a job, regardless of how low the wages are, said the union head, but this attitude is wrong: they should organize and demand more.
Miss L. H. Fairclough, vocational guidance counselor, led the three-minute discussion with the statement that while the union was a fine Negro women are compelled to work regardless.
Neatness of person must be taught the Negro woman worker, said Miss Fairclough, and industry will absorb many of them, as there are not now very many working on machines.
Not Class, but Race
The Rev. George E. Haynes, secretary of the Federal Council of Churches, expressed disdain of Mr. Mcore's and other Commuists' talk of "class rule," declaring that the Negro is only on the outer fringe of "class," and that he must first get within the "class" before he can talk about it.
"It is not a class struggle for the Negro; it is a race struggle," averred the Rev. Mr. Haynes. "The Negro has not taken the first step toward political democracy as the whites have in one generation, let alone economic. . . . There is too much heat and not enough light." Resolutions were read and adopted at the conference, and the Rev. Mr. Haynes said he desired that he be understood that his presence did not commit him to any endorsement of them.
The first resolution supported the Pullman porters' fight against a wage of $72.50 a month on an 11,000-mileage basis or nearly 40-hour work month and the tipping evil, and demanded a living wage based on a 240-hour work month; also the condemnation of the Pullman Company's alleged policy of intimidation and coercion, and demanding that the Pullman Company arbitrate the Pullman porters' dispute the same as they are now arbitrating the Pullman conductors' dispute.
A second resolution condemned the Industrial Relations Plan, Workers' Parliament, the American Plan and the Pullman Company Union as "a serious menace to the organized labor movement, and endorsed the American Labor Movement, calling upon it to consolidate its forces without regard to race, creed, color or nationality with a view to combating and destroying this industrial slavery."
The third resolution denounced strike-breaking on the part of both white and colored workers, an act "to break down high wage standards, better hours of work, and improved working conditions." In such cases Negro-workers are discharged and union men rehired at their previous wage or a lower one after a strike, the resolution declared. John L. Leary, white, who writes on labor questions for the New York World, telegraphed his congratulations to the conference. William Collins, white, New York organizer of the American Federation of Labor, was unable to be present, as scheduled. Ira DeA. Reid, national Urban League Research worker was unable to attend through serious illness at Harlem Hospital, where he is confined.

The suggestions made, both by Crosswalthe and Desverney, were that Lancaster render an accounting of expenditures from day to day or week to week, or, at least, monthly, but this was not done, they said; so that neither Randolph or anybody else ever accurately knew just how the Brotherhood stood financially.
Lancaster's defence was, it is reported, that the organization was not the kind to be run with a cash register, like a grocery or department store, but that their own certified public accountant's report was sufficient.
This report was available to the porters at most any time, Rudolph said.
Continuing, he said that Lancaster told him that neither Crosswathe, whom he said was trying to get him (Lancaster) out of office, nor Deswerney were worth $150 a month to the Brotherhood. "If I had listened to all this talk, the organization would have been broken up long ago," Randolph said.
Great Sacrifices Made
Crosswalite said on Friday that, during the months of March, April and May, 1928, during which time he was in Boston working for the Brotherhood, his wife and four children here were about to be dispossessed on three occasions when the Brotherhood failed to pay, his salary. Friends of both races came to his family's assistance, he said. Deserwayne showed the reporter on Saturday what was said to be substantial proof that, from January 3 and 15, respectively, until March 16, 1928, he had not been paid maintenance and salary. Mrs. Deserwayne said that she became a private tutor in order to help her husband throughout the entire period of the three years of the Brotherhood's existence, often making other sacrifices. At this time the salaries of Randolph, Lancaster and a Messenger editor were overdrawn, it is reported.
During his speeches Mr. Randolph spiked a few minor charges and rumors which he said were unworthy of serious consideration.
He spoke of Lancaster's efforts to get a large sum of money from "a certain organization" as a "bright idea." This is reported to have been Lancaster's alleged attempt to sell the Brotherhood to the Democratic Party for the sum of $77,000. Randolph has repeatedly said in speeches attacking the Pullman Company that the Brotherhood was not for

sale. He is said not to have known of the alleged proposal until some time afterward.
In answering the charge that Lancaster was the highest-paid official, Randolph explained that Lancaster had been given $25 extra per month for his work on the defunct Messenger Magazine, but that at the start Lancaster served without pay.
Deserveyer said Saturday that Lancaster refused to accept the position as temporary secretary-treasurer unless he was paid, and that later he demanded more money and got it, bringing his salary up to $200 a month, including the money for services on the Messenger.
On the other hand, Randolph said, Crosswalsther was receiving $150 monthly from the Brotherhood, $50 monthly from the Trade Union and $10 for every speech he made for the Socialist Party.
According to Crosswalthe, his work with the Brotherhood caused him to neglect the Trade Union to such an extent that it disbanded, and that his speeches for the Socialists were infrequent and never made on the nights of Brotherhood meetings without asking Randolph's consent for a leave of absence.
Crosswalthe was charged with neglecting his work with the Brotherhood for the Socialists.
Randolph Asks Retraction
Randolph stated further, in effect: "I had a talk with Mr. Crosswalte and asked him if he would not retract his charges against Mr. Lancaster, because it would hurt the organization, and that his own case would therefore be adjusted. He agreed. I took the matter before the committee and they said: 'A man who could make such charges and then change them could not be trusted.'" In dealing with Desverney's case, which he touched upon very, very lightly, Desverney being "present, Randolph said that the committee found it necessary to dismiss him because of rumors among the men that he was not loyal to the organization and was probably a spy for the Pullman Company. Personally, he said, he did not believe it, but that the dismissal of Desverney was decided entirely by the men themselves.
Deaverney contends that rumors of his disloyalty never originated with or among the men, but was spread among them, he believes, by Mr. Lancaster. Even after his dismissal Deaver

may offered his services without pay, but Randolph refused his offer.
Has Already Resigned
During the early part of last year Crosswalthe expressed his $ _{3} $ displeasure with Lancaster's business method to the extent of tendering his resignation, to take effect May 31, 1928, while in March of the same year Deverney also registered his complaints in virile terms, in which he implied his resignation provided existing conditions were not remedied. Crosswalthe said that Mr. Randolph pleaded with him to remain with the organization.
Lancaster is reported to have been made general secretary-treasurer by the committee, but t. $ _{3} $ was denied by Deverney, who claims that his position wa $ _{3} $ only temporary and that A. L. Totten, assistant general organizer, was slated for the permanent position.
Dark Rumors Resented
Lancaster's speech followed Randolph's at the porters' meeting, in which he stated that he was sick and tired of porters' wives coming to his home with tales linking his name with that of Mrs. Helen Davis, the office bookkeeper.
He denied all dishonesty and read off a financial statement to the men covering three years, this being the first time that a financial statement was given the men in this manner, it is said.
The meeting was very poorly attended.
It is reported that dissatisfaction and rumor hampered the progress of the Brotherhood to such an extent that in July, 1928, the policy committee, headed by M. P. Webster, Chicago organizer, came here unexpectedly for the purpose of checking up. The office now states that their report was okay, but others declare that it was unfinished.
When Crosswaithe made his charges against Lancaster it was before a body of about fifty men, including the national executive committee. He cited ten specific instances, which were each denied by Lancaster. It was afterward decided by a motion to place the matter exclusively in the hands of the executive committee of ten men, including Randolph and Lancaster. Shortly thereafter three impartial investigators were summoned in the matter, in the persons of Harry W. Laidler, labor adherent, and A. Shiplacoff, head of the Pocketkoth Makers' Union, both white, and Robert W. Baenall, director of branches of the N. A. A. C. P. They asked at the time that Crosswaithe, who was out of the city, to state his charges in writing, and he, replied that he preferred making them in person.
Minority Report Coming
In the meantime, Shipleacoff gave Randolph a letter of special recommendation regarding the Brotherhood to Mr. William Green of the American Federation of Labor for the purpose of assisting him in securing an international charter for the Brotherhood.

Racial Problems Aired at Y.M.C.A.
The rights, inequalities and exploitation of the Negro, East Indian, Chinese and Japanese people were aired by three speakers. Sunday in the race relations session of the Young People's Conference at the West 135th Street Y. M. C. A. Miss Edith Eckhart of the Home Mission Council spoke on "The Indian in America" and pointed out the progress in education of that race. D. George Hinman of the American Missionary Association addressed the body on the broad topic, "Orients in America."
Dr. Channing Tobins of the National Council of the Y. M. C. A. deplored the acuteness of the race problem as related to Negroes. The speakers were introduced by M. Henry Parker Jr. Miss Fay Canty was soloist.
charges of dishonesty, Mr. Shiplacoff demanded the return of his letter, it is reported, and Randolph refused. As the opinions of Bagnall and Laldier seemed to favor the Brotherhood, Shiplacoff is quoted as saying that he would make a minority report. This was over three months ago. Bagnall and Laldier have not yet reported, it is said. Regarding any unfavorable report, Mr. Bagnall is said to have written as follows:
"The public looks upon Mr. Crosswalte especially, and in a lesser degree upon Mr. Desaverney, as disgruntled individuals who are willing to attack: the movement because they could not exercise the power in it they deed. "I can speak with authority about the sentiment of the public, my work placing me in a position to know. A report as you have drafted would do a great deal to hurt the movement and the Negro worker in general." When interviewed on Friday Randolph and Lancaster said they would issue no official statement at least for one week, at which time a flan-

No Ill-Will
They did say, however, that they held no ill-will whatever against their former associates, and wished them success with their new organization, the United Colored Social of America, 2311 Seventh avenue and the proposed launching of the New Messenger Magazine.
Good-will and a spirit of friendship and helpfulness were expressed by Crosswalthe and Desverney to ward the Brotherhood, Randolph and Lancaster, and they added that they desired nothing greater in life than the success of the Brotherhood.
All were unanimous in their pressed desire to avoid a controversy.
Webster wrote Desverney recently that any local misunderstandings must not revert to the detriment of the national organization.

"For fifteen years I have been using Black-Draught, when needed, for biliousness and constipation," says Mr. J. O. Woolard, of Oriental, N. C., "and I have always found it to be reliable and effective. It certainly comes up to all the good things that are said for it, and I am glad to recommend it. I have found that Theford's BLACK-DRAUGHT
purges the system of the poisons which accumulate when the organs do not act properly, and I would not be without it.
"I always give Black-Draught to the children for colds (when a laxative is needed). It is fine for that.
"My trouble is chiefly constipation which is always accompanied by dull headache, backache, and pains in my sides. I think Black-Draught is the quickest and best relief for this."

Confidences
Questions and Answers
By EGYPSY ANN
The False "Girl Friend"
If your "girl friend" makes it her
business to come into your apartment just when she knows your husband is home, and if she also makes it her business to take a little too much interest in his appearance, in his and your affairs, and if she even stays and entertains him while you have to run out to the store and get supper, then, I say, you had better begin to treat her coldly.
There's no sense in sitting down and watching another woman try to take your husband. When she shows plainly that it's not your company but your hubby's she desires, then it's time for you to inform her that you don't desire her as company.
How are you going to about it? Don't return her calls. Don't invite her to your home. Now, while that measure may work with some women it won't with all. Persistent is far too mild a term for some women.
The next time she breezes in right after hubby has returned from work, tell her that you are both getting ready to go out and that you'd rather she called during a more convenient hour of the day.
Some people have to have their feelings hurt or they will walk all over you. In a case like this, when the chase is so obvious, it is necessary for you to hold your own.
Dear Mrs. M. M.:
Try the advice given in today's column, and I think you'll be successful. It should be easy since your husband himself is quite disgusted.
I'll say she's nervy when she stays until 12 o'clock and then asks your husband if he minds escorting her home. Suppose that you tell hubby to suggest that you walk with them, too, and see that you do. That ought to be effective, and if it isn't

A Lincoln Luncheon
TUESDAY, Feb. 12, is the birthday
anniversary of Abraham Lincoln.
That day will be an ideal time for a
luncheon—so try the following directions:
The invitations to this luncheon may be simply worded, and written either on paper that resembles birchbark or on white note paper rolled and enclosed in a brown paper decorated in imitation of a box.
If possible, have a log fire in the room where you receive your guests. Darken the room sufficiently to use candles. Red, white and blue should be the color scheme of the decorations, carried out either in flowers, crepe paper or bunting. In a place of honor have a bust or a portrait of Lincoln surrounded by a wreath of laurel.
On the luncheon table use a red tablecloth like those in use many years ago, with white dolldies and blue dishes. Candles in rustic wood holders should give the light. A log cabin built of the "Lincoln loga", which can now be bought in most school supply stores, with a roof of bark, makes a pretty centerpiece if banked about with moss and red, white and blue flowers. Ribbons beaded on the floor, the roof to each place, where they are the about what appear to be loss made of gray or brown crane paper.
The place cards are little cardboard axes stuck in the logs, with the guests' names written along the handles. The menu may consist of "Pioneer" soup, which is cream of potato; "Wild Turkey" (frieaslee chicken) served with "Kentucky" potatoes, nothing more than candied
you tell your husband to retire before she goes and that will end the argument as to who is to take her home.
Luck to you from EGYPSY ANN.
Looking Your Best
In last week's issue we talked about the eyebrows. This week we shall consider the eyelashes and the eye itself.
About once a month your eyelashes need a careful trimming and the application of vaseline. I do not advise eyelash coloring as it is generally so obviously artificial. If it is applied with care and ingenuity, which it seldom is, it can heighten the beauty of the eyelash.
Now, for the eye itself. Everyone admires bright, clear eyes and any person in normal health can acquire them by bathing the eyes nightly. A good solution for making the eyes bright and clear is made by dissolving a teaspoon of boric acid in a pint of water that has been boiled. After the water is cold, or if you prefer you may warm it, apply nightly either with the aid of an eye cup, which is very effective, or with a clean piece of cloth. It is not safe to use the fingertips as, not always belongs absolutely clean, they may infect the eye, which is very sensitive. Plain cold water also serves as an invigorating tonic for the eye. For resting the eyes, lie on the flat of your back and close your eyes for a few minutes and feel yourself relax all over. Looking in the distance is helpful, especially looking at a clear blue sky.
How are you going to prevent those fine lines from gathering around the eye, or how are you going to get rid of them if they are already there?
Massage is very effective. Dip your fingers in your cold cream and stroke gently under your eyes, beginning at the nose and going out towards the ears. This process increases the circulation of the blood and nourishes the skin tissues.
Avoid eye-strain! Insist upon a good light for your work, as eyestrain is very harmful to both your health and beauty.

Games.
After the soup course has been served the hostess may ask her guests to "split" the logs at their places. Inside each will be found a short anecdote about Lincoln, which should be read aloud. These may be found in "Best Lincoln Stories" Persely Tolley by Emily E. Gallamier in "Lincoln's Own Stories," collected and edited by Anthony Gross. Following the main course little log-cabin booklets with these verses inside are passed to each guest. The blanks should be filled in with words ending in "nation."
Lincoln and the Nation

Lincoln acquired his scant education.
Reading at night by the hearthfire's light,
With charcoal and birch-bark learning to write.

It pauses to gratefully sing of his fame.
If you will send a self-addressed envelope to this department immediately, the list of words to be inserted in this poem will be mailed on in time for your luncheon.
A suitable prize for this game is a copy of Drinkwater's "Abraham Lincoln" or some other Lincoln book.
At the end of the salad course, a square white card and needle threaded with black yarn should be given to each guest to take to new home in the picture of Lincoln in a given time. A prize, which may be a silver thimble or something reminiscent of Lincoln, is given for the best portrait.

Housebold Hints
WARM olive oil will certainly help the housewife to keep her finger nails from becoming brittle. Try soaking your finger nails ten minutes a day. You'll note a change. The grease spot on your silk dress may be removed by the application of a little French chalk to the spot. Leave the chalk on a while to soak up the grease, then brush it off. The chief secret in producing the blown hollow ball that cream puffs and popovers are, lies in the control of the oven. A very hot oven is required until the steam within the dough blows the ball up, and then the temperature must be reduced to dry out the shell without burning it.
Frozen Grapefruit.
PACK and freeze one cup of grapefruit pulp; one cup of white grapefruit pulp; one cup of salted one cup of powdered sugar; one fourth cup of powdered sugar.

1 loaf white bread.

Title Shot for Californian in Event of Victory Next Week
By JIMMIE SMITH.
With the signing of Baby Joe Gans the box jacket Fields at Madison Squro Garden Friday night, Feb. 15, is all attended and out of the way the winger is "can a good little man beat a good big man?" The old adage says that a good little man can't beat a good big man, but some tweaks are needed that Friday night to be convinced. Jackie Fields by virtue of his victory over Jack Thompson, who knocked out the champion, Dundee, is the uncrowned welterweight king Gans. Mushy Cullahan when he was in his prime, is the uncrowned junior welterweight champion of the world. Gans also boxed Joe Glick and 15. Gans was won although he was robbed of the decision. Can Gans, the lightweight, beat Fields, the welterweight. We don't say that Gans will, but we will say that Gans is the biggest chance. The bigger the harder they seem to fall when Gans levels that right glove. During his first invasion here this summer the "young master" took on the older, the dullest and the cleavestlews and it was the big men he led the least trouble with.
This is "Cherolice". Tom's first match for Gans since he took over the league in 2012, Gans following the death of his partner, Larney Litchstein. Some will say that the cunning "Cherolice" is sending his pride against too much pressure, the difference in weights, but the old fox of the boxing game, has reasoned correctly that Gans has everything to win and nothing to lose. If he loses, he will go up to the logical contender spot for a shot at Dundee's crown. If he loses he can still battle the lightweights and junior welters and the grand they will draw down won't hurt the Baby's bank account one bit.
"Cherokee" Tom also gets a great deal of satisfaction out of securing this fight in that he is the first colored manager to sign a boxer's contract for a main event in the Madison Square Garden. Tom's greatest shot since they started out together some six years ago, Gans boxing a four-round preliminary, his first fight, in a little five-hundred-capacity club on Central avenue, Los Angeles, Calif. His successor's corner that night and he will be in the master's corner on the night of Friday, the fifteenth

Renaissance in Big Game
Lincoln's Birthday Night
On Lincoln's Birthday, Tuesday, February 12, the Renaissance Five, world's colored champions, will harbor with the Paterson Club of the Renaissance Casino, under the duplexes of the Metro-Diamond Club of the Eastern Colored Basketball League. The Paterson quintet is one of the most dangerous of the clubs that quake up the American League and have oftimes made trouble for the owners of that league. Marrying under the defences handed them like Dayne and Chicago clubs, also of the American League, are almost certain to try to take it out of the Jersey quintet, a hard and intense game is sure to be the result.
The Metro-Diamonds, who are the offi cial m ents of the Eastern Colored Basketball League, will square off in the preliminary game against the Y. M.T.A. Cardinals, one of Harlem's great lightweight quintets, who have long list of victories to their credit and are known as a smart and fast bunch of youngsters. Neither team has lost many games this season, and on the result of this battle will rest the championship laurels of their class for the 1928-29 season.
Each team has a host of rooters and they will be on hand to give encouragement to their respective teams. The management of the Pennsylvania team, always willing to advance the cause of junior players, graciously consented to play the Paterson Club, one of the outstanding quintets in the country, so that the Metro would be able to give their patrons a stellar attraction.
Both games are bound to be bang-up affairs, and the fans would do best if they came early.
Our Baseball Leagues
By SQL WHITE
to many baseball fans. The league that was first to mileage, it was the present Negro league of 1881, man responsible for the project. I am using Mr. Brown, my of a hotel in the stadium and managers would play a league series, very likable fellow national League member at all of them. Co. baseball clubs compose the name of Walter organizer and pres call to organize at stations of Boston, Georgia, Lord Baltimore, Washington, D. C.; enthusiasm at the publicity by the looked bright and roo organize. Before two teams withdrew the other two delinquents. The other two delinquents. The ordinary. I have never been a being was in exist ball players to find about the first of Monies of Pittsburgh's major series of the lea gheny. They had being—and a big cr Keystones waited a jump of the Resol hey could go no far isvilles never left it so ended the first organized. The league was and tha been no greater in once the league of 1881. The Keystone did not disband, pla achieved a vict e latter part of 1881.
IT MAY be news to many baseball fans of today when they hear of a colored league that was formed as far back as 1887. According to mileage, it was the biggest colored league ever organized, the present Negro National League of the West excepted.
The president of the league of 1887, Walter Brown of Pittsburgh, was the man responsible for the launching of this wonderful baseball project. I am using the word "wonderful" to conform with the time. Mr. Brown was the manager of a newsstand in the lobby of a hotel in the Smoky City, where the big league players and managers would put up when they visited Pittsburgh to play a league series with the Allerhenies
Mr. Brown was a very likable fellow. He was quite a favorite with all the National League moguls he happened to meet, which was about all of them. Consequently, when the idea of a league of baseball clubs composed of all colored players was mentioned the name of Walter Brown of Pittsburgh was the headliner for organizer and president. Here is what happened. At the first call to organize a league the following clubs responded: Resolutes of Boston, Gorhams of New York, Pythians of Philadelphia, Lord Baltimores of Baltimore, Keystones of Pittsburgh, Washington, D. C.; Louisville, Ky.; Cincinnati, Ohio. Lots of enthusiasm at the first meeting. They were given plenty of publicity by the leading papers of the country. Everything looked bright and rosy for the first Negro baseball league ever to organize. Before the opening of the season, May 1, 1887, two teams withdrew from the league. Washington and Cincinnati. The other six teams went right ahead, regardless of the two delinquents. Of course, Mr. Brown was president and secretary. I have never heard the name of the treasurer. If such a being was in existence he was a confounded hard person for ballplayers to find.
The league opened about the first of May and closed about that time. The Keystones of Pittsburgh played the Gorhams of New York, their initial series of the league, on the National League grounds in Allegheny. They had a grand opening—parade, band, n everything—and a big crowd. After playing the Gorham series the Keystones waited a week for Boston to show up. But that first jump of the Resolutes, from Boston to Louisville, got 'cm. They could go no farther. The Pythians of Philadelphia and Louisville never left their home towns for a league series. And so ended the first Colored League of Baseball Clubs ever organized.
Short lived as the league was and tragical as may seem its termination, there has been no greater impetus for the propagation of ballplayers since the league of 1887. It brought colored players to the front. The Keystones of Pittsburgh and Gorhams of New York did not disband, playing independently. Each one of these teams achieved a victory over the famous Cuban Giants during the latter part of 1887.
Renaissance on Tour
Union Renaissance team went eastern trip to be serially to step into the sixth Original Celtics. We added that they were the consistency with the original of this team. It was also the crow were next to visitation Triangles to the Celtics just a matter to step into the play out, notwithstanding were performing with their 12:19 lineup. We the team to put forth them to consistently be back, but we are told that they are too strong, with the rest won, a fact that will resultant benefit to the team left New York to the Chicago grant that both the Hakouha were the Hakouha were into camp. FT. Wayne, 34 to 25, as at the Chicago Chicago to 35, and also these two latter are the noise made by the noise made by the Chicago have died down to an strung by three points. We service of our contempt consolation to lay off if their team have hitting on all the team have died on all the team have gone back to a very important trip to go without a manager a player to attend to ask? Those in charge a grave error to Manager Mercer, with an St.-C. Alpha days, in power and recognize the Renaissance all of that race's baskets team when they meet four representatives are our claim to the front the players should know gain of the Colum scorer with a The line-up.
THE world's colored champion Renaissance team blew a wonderful opportunity in their last Western trip to be seriously considered as one of the teams in the country to step into the shoes left vacant by the erstwhile world's champion Original Celtics. When the Celtics held sway it was generally conceded that they were the best in the business, and this honor came from the consistency with which they defeated their opponents under any conditions.
During the latter years of this reign it was also grudgingly recognized that "Bob" Douglas's wrecking crew were next best, even though such teams as Cleveland and the Visitation Triangles were very close behind the colored champions.
This year, however, with the Celtics just a memory as a team, it was up to the Renaissance team to step into the place made vacant when the world's champions passed out, notwithstanding the fact that several of the Celtics' old players were performing with other teams, for the Renaissance still boasted of their 123 lineup. With a proper realization of this fact, one would expect the team to put forth special efforts against the leading clubs to enable them to consistently be in the winners' column.
At home we have no kick, but we are told that on the road the urease to the loewe does not seem to be so strong, with the result that many a game is lost. We are told that that will increase the driving power of the team, with the result benefit to the individual members.
On their recent trip West the team left New York apparently fit to put up a great battle, but we are told that they were badly off form, from what cause we do not know. We grant that both the Ft. Wayne and Chicago teams are no setsups, but neither are the Hakaohs, Visitation or Trenton teams, all of which the Rens took into camp.
They lost two games to Ft. Wayne, 34 to 25, and 34 to 30. They then journeyed to Chicago and lost to the Chicago Bruins, 47 to 28. They defeated the Savoy Club of Chicago 38 to 35, and also defeated the Cleveland Elks at Cleveland, 56 to 34, these two latter team are colored aggregations. There is no doubt that they are the best of the lot among our own colored performers, and all the noise made by Chicago rooters with regard to the Savoy Big Five must have died down to an echo, for with six minutes to go and the Rens behind 11 points, on a strange court, they caught the Savoy and defeated them by three points. We are wondering if the Chicago fans heeded the advice of our contemporary, Rollo Wilson, of the Courier, when he told them to lay off if their team ever played the They might find some consolation in the fact that the score was close, but with a Renaissance team hitting on all fives, if they ever meet the Savoy again, the Chicago team will be buried, even though, to use Rollo's words, "the Rens may have gone back several kilometres." It is regrettable that on this last very important trip, through the illness of Manager Douglas, they had to go without a manager. Capt. Slocum was in charge, but who could expect a player to attend to managerial duties and do justice to the playing end? Those in charge of the team during the illness of Manager Douglas make a grave error in not sending someone away with them. Assistant Manager Mercer, with his knowledge of the game dating back to Spartan-St. C-Alpha days, should have been sent along. When the Celtics were in power and recognized as the best team in the world, whenever they met the Renaissance all the fans of their race looked on them as defenders of that race's basketball supremacy. Just so with the Rens as our best team when they bested the white teams, we look on them as our representatives and expect them to give the best in them to uphold our claim to the front rank.
The management and the players should know this and be guided by it in the future.
Tiger Five Wins Again
The strong Salem-Crescent team lost a well played game last week to the Tiger A. C. of Columbus Hill Center. The Tigers took the lead in the first minute of play, and held it all through the game. At the end of the first half the Salem boys trailed by one point, score being 29 to 28. Realizing their strong competition the Tiger five played a much stronger game during the second half, both on the offense and the defense. The game ended with a score of 54 to 44.

Defeat Hudson Five and Will Meet Yonkers Team Sunday
By FRANCIS.
The Renaissance Five, back from their western trip, met the Hudson Club of the New York State League at the Renaissance Casino and turned them back by the score of 47 to 37. This game was the third meeting of the two teams, each having one victory to its credit. The Rens, as is their wont, started off with a big lead in the first few minutes and appeared to have the game on ice when the first half ended with a point Jead, the score being 33 to 13. In the second half Mayers was replaced with Monroe, Satch going to guard from forward which he played with, and the team came some wonderful shooting by Maxopos Povey the visitors came with a rush from behind and soon were within a few points of the Rens. The colorful champs had enough left, however, the visitors came with which they held to the end of the game. Ricks was the high scorer of the game with 9 floor baskets and three fouls for a total of 21 points. Maxopos of the visitors was next in line with the goals and three fouls for 10 points.

BROWN WINS AGAIN
A special despatch to the New York Evening Telegram on January brought the information that Al Brady had been shot by the French fighter, Timer Humery, at the Clouze de Paris last week in five seconds. At the opening gong Humery and a left to the head, but misjudged the shot, at Humery's chin and hit it. Humery hit the floor and was unconscious for several minutes, but customers set home short-changed 2 minutes and 56 seconds of fighting.
Central Queens Loses to Carlton Court Men
Many thrills were given spectators last Wednesday, Jan. 30, when the Y, M. D. basketball tossers hooked up with the Central Queens quintet, leaders in the Brooklyn and Queens basketball league. The men came from Jamaica came out in full force, feeling confident in the possible outcome of the game. They no doubt were mindful of the fact that their four-point game first game some weeks ago could not be considered in passing judgment.
Carlton took the lead from the first whistle, when "Boot" Perry was difficult shots in succession, another by his gave Carlton a six-point lead during the first seven minutes of play. Up until this time Queens was held at eight minutes both teams ran up to 12 to 17 points, thus ending the first half. The second half was nip and tuck for Queens, but however, had an elightful during the first ten minutes but were unable to check the fast passing, shifty floor work and clever fielding. One of the best Jamaica field, one of the best Jamaica ever produced at forward, was held scoreless in field haskets. Frequent changes on the part of Queens in the first half led head and very little effect. With two to go, Perry of Carlton and Schoenfeld of Queens were eliminated on fouls. Win the score 31-30 caught desperately. The first whistle caught Queens on the low end, 39-31.

HOWARD AGAIN PLAYS VIRGINIA
New Athletic Relations Marked by Victory for Washington Team
Howard celebrated resumption of athletic relations with Virginia Union Wednesday night with a basketball victory of 40-24. The game was played in the Howard Gymnasium, at Washington. Union presented the same team over which Hampton nosed out the victory with a small margin of two points, the game being played on the Hampton court. The visitors were unable to score the first fifteen minutes, except a single point scored from the foul line, while Howard was running up a substantial lead, with field goals by Woods and Harris, followed with singles by Forsythe and Williams.
Washington, Union guard, was finally put out of the game on a pair of fouls, slipping one through the sake for Union's first goal from the floor, and giving up by Howard. The score at close of first half was 19-6 in Howard's favor. The second half started off fast, with Union scoring the first two points. Howard railed in the specimen, and Howard increased the Bison lead to a safe margin, when Coach Burr sent in the second team. Union and the Howard Juniors played on fairly even terms, with a score of 19-6. The oral points to their own credit, Captain Woods and Simpson starred for Howard, while Williams. Union forward, took high-score honors, with four field goals and three from the floor, with a total score of eleven points.

WILL DEMPSEY FACE GODFREY?
We Did Not Believe It "Then" and We Do Not Believe It "Now"
It's an even money bet, Andy Lang tells us, that if and when Jack Tempest returns to the ring it will be under the Humbert J. Fugazy banner—according to Edwin Cole. Cole is the gent who tossed a bomb into the ranks of the 600 millionaires of the Madison Square Garden Corporation recently by announcing in no uncertain terms that, in conjunction with William Bartlett, vice-president of the Atlantic City Bank, he was going to back Fugazy in the erection of the Metropolitan Coliseum at Fifty-fourth street and Eleventh avenue in Manhasset.
Yesterday Cole returned from Miami Beach, where he, Bartlett and Fegazy had been in conference with the former heavyweight champion. They offered the Mannassa Mauler two proposals, one to join the organization in the promotion of the Coliseum and the other to fight for them this summer.
And, says Cole, the prospects of the ex-heavyweight king signing to meet next George Dobrey or Jimmy Vanderbilt are very bright. Furthermore, plans will continue to form a closed corporation to sponsor the erection of the Coliseum. Six millionaires will compose the new syndicate, which expects to rival the Garden corporation and ground will be broken for the proposed arena by Feb. 15.
There are an abundance towards the arena of the arena Cole declared that the tract of property may be sold and the building put up on the site of the old car barn at Sixth avenue and Fiftieth street.
When asked what he meant by the statement that the "interview with Dempsey was very encouraging," Cole stated that Jack told them he has received a number of proposals for the Tux Hotel but that thus far the Fugazi syndicate offer appeared to be the best of them all. Dempsey will not be in a position he said, "to make any definite statement until after the Sharkey killing fight. I am returning to it to see the bout and the day later to see the before Dempsey a check for the sum of money that will equal any amount he ever received for a fight. I have every reason to believe that he will accept this warranty."
Although he would not mention the exact amount Dempsey was being offered, it is understood that the figure is more than half a million dollars. The names of the syndicate will be announced within the next ten days, according to Cole, and "the money behind Madison Square Garden will look small when I make public the names of the six financiers behind the Coliseum." It is figured that the new sports stadium cost ten million dollars and will have a larger seating capacity than the Garden will adaptable to all sports, including hockey.

"Blackbird" the fame of which has gone before, no such danger at the Hippodrome; one's expectation more than realized, and before, the fear of the many delightful scenes is our one can no longer doubt why it has seemed such tremendous success!

Game a Toss-Up Between Howard and Lincoln
Both the Howard University and Lincoln University teams are blessed with an abundance of good material this season. This game, to be played at Rockland Palace on Lincoln's Birthday night, promises to recall the "old-time spirit" which was so prevalent in the days of St. Christopher, Alpha P. C. C. and Spartan F. C. Think of the stars of yesteryear, then see the boys in this game who in the future will be immortals in the hall of fame. It was just about a decade ago when Howard University had in their lineup that great George Glmore will all tower the George Glmore, and also that oblative forward "Huddy" Oliver. Loenlid in its greatest years was composed of three former Lincoln stars, James Sosoms, the elongated center, and the famed Young brothers, "Pimp" and the late "Liss." Some of the boys in the floor that night will also become as well known as the above mentioned stars.
There are only a few reservations left, so you better call for yours soon. Mayor James J. Walker has been invited to throw out the ball, and more than likely will do so at 10 p.m.
A fast preliminary is promised at 9 o'clock sharp for the Y. M. C. A. championship. This game between Carleton avenue Y. M. D. and the 125th will feature "Sandy" Hearndon and Smith combining such high school stars as "Brickton" Wright, "Jackie" Livingston and "Buddy" Walker. The first game resulted in a Carleton victory by the margin of one point.

SEMINARY RUNS OVER HAMPTON
Administers Sound Thrashing to Institute Players Last Week
Eddie Davis and company stopped the onrush of the fast-travelling championship-seekers from Hampton by trouncing them to the tune of 44 to 16 last week. By earning this victory the Deacons gained the undisputed claim on first place in the C. I. A. A.
The team had been in progress for about three minutes before either team was able to score. The locals drew first blood when "Scraps" Thomas caged one from under the basket. Henderson and Bell caged one each directly after the first basket had been scored. The Parsons had a six-point lead before Hampton made a tally. Cotton scored the Semifinal and Henderson scored almost at will. At the end of the first half the score stood 24 to 5.
Capt. Davis opened the second half with a field goal. Henderson made two and Thomas had one before Hampton got so they were able to score. The visitors were able to score. The team was able to last and the home team was able to maintain the same lead that they had commanded in the first half.
Henderson was the leading scorer again. He caged seven field goals and two fouls. He was followed by Capt. Davis and "Scraps" Thomas, who made five field goals apiece. The shooting of Davis was the best that he has given the local fans this year. Dick Bell and Fowler were as good as usual; the former was able to care two from the floor. For the visitors, Cotton and McGowan were best.

Commandeurs Capture Game From Omega Psi Phi
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Feb. 3.—The Commandeurs, the kind of passing team the mob adores, and the Omega Psi Phi, University of Pennsylvania Chapter, put on a basketball game for the sport-lovers here at the Broadway A. C. last Friday night, the uptowners passing their way to a glorious victory in the good, old-fashioned Commandeurs' way. The final score was 30 to 23. And if the playing of the Commandeurs Friday night—how they can pass—is a sample of the game they intend to put up in the future, may the rest of the teams on their schedule, such as the Steam Rollers of Germantown, Kappa Alpha, Pennsylvania, Chapman University, Newark Student Councils, etc., be warned that the Commandeurs have one dangerous sonic.
The Commandeurs, with their passing attack, ought to be invincible, some of the folks will tell you, yet the Commandeurs lost two games last week. And the team pilot predicts that they are liable to lose a few more before their hard schedule is done with. If this doesn't prove that the Commandeurs are playing the hardest opponents war, then. If assistance is just an ordinary team, it is not. New York Collegiate ain't no trouble. Broadway A. C. was filled with enthusiastic rooters, and everyone was satisfied with the game dishied up to the crowd. There wasn't much to the game itself. Hank Gorgus, John Edwards and Oscar Burnett, three rugged "Coms," made things very unpleasant for the Omega five. Hank second two field goals; Burnett, two, third two. Nathan Wheeler were expected from Hank at the beginning of the season and the "Coms" captain has just about hit his nausea.
Clarence Hawkins, Justin Hope
and Dick Nelson were the big guns
for the frat boys. At half-time the
"Coms" led, 14-13.

St. Jude Girls Bow to Defenders Thursday
On January 31, at P. S. 136, the Defender Girls' quintet continued their winning streak by defeating the strong St. Jude Girls by a score of 15-4. The visitors were speedy throughout, but the Defenders' supernatural passing proved too fast for their opponents. Through the entire game the victors held a comfortable lead.
The floor work of Pauline Moore was remarkable, as was the defence work of Dot Crelando and Viola Jackson. The Defenders are hopeful of meeting the Golden Eagles on any court they choose to play.

Throughout the game the victors were in the lead, with a final score of 14-11. The star player and high-scorer of the game was Lolita Meyers, with a total of 8 points. The lineup was as follows:

Arrows Continue Winning Streak in Court Games
The Arrows are still keeping up their winning streak and the past week saw them win two of the hardest-fought games of the season. Wednesday, January 30, they defeated the Clover A. C., one of the leading teams in Harlem, as they hold a victory over the "Y" Cardinals. The game was played on the Arrows' home court.
It was a fast and exciting game throughout with the Clovers rolling up the score. The Arrows staging a great rally to come up from behind and snatch the game from the mouth of the Clovers at the last minute.
At the end of the first half the Arrows were trailing by a score of 21 to 15 but, instead of giving up, as some teams would have been very up to do, they gritted their teeth and kept right on fighting until the Arrows gave up. The team and twenty seconds to go and the score tied. Nesbitt, tricky forward of the Arrows, cast a one-handed shot that set the gallery on their feet and that won the game for the Arrows, as in twenty seconds the time was on. Canibali and Sohele gave up, aggressive game, while Armstrong, the caint, led his team to victory, with twelve points. Cole of the Clovers was the high scorer of both teams, having tallied eight - points.

The Sad Note.
Their songs were primitive, hut

always a sad note throbbing through

Nevertheless, 1t was apparent that
there was something good In the

with the wholly sad spiritual they
succeeded a ttle. “Way down upon

Then came the war. People who

bitterness to the full, Husbands
were torn from thelr wives, children
from thelr parents, Meu witnessed
Moodshed and death. Humanity
stood still, The old was swept aside.
The new rushed forward with a
jangling roar.
Peace came, leaving an altered

And then Negro music was dis:

On Monday afternoon, Jan. 28, the annual meeting of the Brooklyn Urban League Lincoln Settlement, Inc., a social service organization based in Brooklyn was held at its headquarters, 105 Fleet place. The following board members were re-elected to the general board of the League: William H. Baldwin, W. C. Brown, S. Larkes Cadman, Edward S. Currinham, Charles J. Dodd, Mrs. Lavis W. Francis, Miss Ann Haines, W. C. Brown, Mrs. Ernest P. Goodrich, William R. Grunger, Mrs. Lottie A. Hensarion, Miss Hcriotta Jackson, Dr. V. Morton Jones, Mrs. Thomas Procruc, Mrs. Laura J.

A steering committee of the following persons were elected: Mrs. William H. Baldwin, W. C. Brown, Henry Neumann, Miss Anna Hawley.
The following persons were elected as officers: H. Philippor, II. H. Philippor, vice-president; Mrs. Gilbert II. Thirlkeld, vice-president; Mrs. Edwin F. Hornes, secretary; Francis A. Wilson, treasurer; Frank A. Gilbert, assistant treasurer. Robert J. Elzy, the executive secretary, made a report of the year's work. He emphasized the importance of among the things he said were the following:
"During the past 25 years openings for more than 1,750 persons were for the Brooklyn industries throws an interesting light upon the economic life of Negroes in Brooklyn. To the first 500 firms in Brooklyn, questionnaires were sent asking for information on Negroes; 106 responded; 50 employed 1,551. The total number of employees in these 106 firms is 56,465. Thus the 1,551 colored workers constitute 2. per cent of these firms. This figure, 2.7 per cent, constitutes a higher percentage than Negroes are to the total population of Brooklyn; in 1929 the 31,912 Negroes were employed by these firms. However, if the present estimates which place the Negro population at 60,000 and the city's at 2,250,000 are correct, then Negroes are 2.6 per cent of the total. Workers were distributed as follows.
Transportation 471
Department Stores 115
Manufactures of Elec. Goods. 82
Tobacco Manufacturers 69
Copper Manufacturers 62
Mrs. of Chemicals 40
Food Packers. 28
Foundries 28
Kult Gods Mirs. 28
Newspapers 50
Miscellaneous 50
Total 1,551
xThis group includes paving, building, laundry, gas, light, medicine, clothing, paper goods, brushes, cement, garbage, etc.
The answers, contained in the replies of the 50 fifties failing to employ Negroes, lead one (imagine that they would take on some if an approach were made in their behalf, but subsequent to this, an appreciably change the status quo. There was a willingness on the part of some to employ them at such a time as they are able to take on more men, but the depression of 1928 possibly prevent them from doing so if they were really committed.
Plins of the Industrial Department include contacts with these firms until they do take on Negroes, other workers or workers relative to their jobs brought out the following: 1534 men were studied; 20 were working at skilled trades; 218 semi-skilled; 1,206 unskilled. The average wage of $19.92, although the average length of time employed was 7½ months. Only 27 definitely felt that there is opportunity for advancement in their present positions. When we received a report of a group of workers who apparently has no desire to go to school to take courses that would improve himself, he can readily comprehend the situation when in the per cent of a group of workers report opportunities for advancement and when the average wage is less than $20 per week. There must be held out to the prospective student a chance to pursue any particular course of study with interest and enthusiasm. It is sincerely hoped that these 1,524 workers are not typical of the condition of Negroes in Brooklyn: get the ranges of wages was $10 to $50 per week.
The budget for the year of $26,000 was adopted.

THE INDIGNATION of colored citizens of Brooklyn is
still mounting as charges of racial segregation in Public
School 35 become more widely known. Principal Gainsburg
‘of that school poured oil on the fire when instead of ending
the alleged discrimination he chose to defendit. He says that
the glee club of Negro beys was organized separately because
of “differences in voices and ability to sing specific types
‘of music,” yet he says there was no discrimination.
"THE WORDS “ability to sing specific types of music”
have a ring that has been familiar to Negro ears for three
centuries, It is the voice of the Southerner who wants the
Negro confined to hewing wood and drawing water, who
wants him forever debarred from any knowledge of the
higher world of art and intellect. The Negro artist must
aspire to painting nothing but barns and fences; if he dances
he must do the clog; if he sings he must put on a bandanna
handkerchief and sing the music and dialect of the corn-
field, leaving classical music to white people. There must
be no Roland Hayes singing French chansons, Italian arias
and German lieder, no Henry Tanner painting “The An-
nunciation,” no Pushkin sublimating the poetry of Russia,
no Dumas with his musketeers.of France,
DISCRIMINATION is directly contrary to the liberal
spirit of the New York City school system. ‘Thousands of
Negroes came here to save their children from Southern
oppressicn and they are astenished to find in a Brooklyn
school the very thing they fled from. Other elements of
the American population, the English, the Irish, the Jewish,
the German, the Russian, also came here as fugitives from
persecution, and the Negro cannot understand why they them-
‘selves should become persecutore in America. A man may
advocate racial persecution in the South, he may defend it
even in the North as a private individual, but he has no
right whatever to institute and uphold it in his capacity
as an officer of the New York City schools.” "”
THE CITIZENS of Brooklyn should not rest till this
kind of thing is stamped out. If Jim-Crowism is not vigor-
cucly combated it will grow more and more flagrant and
perkags spread to other schools. Forty years ago the Brook-
lyn people fought Copperheadism till the Board of Educa-
tion and the Legislature kicked it out of the schools, and
they can do it again. Jim Crow may run the schools of
Georgia, but there is no room for him in the schools of
New York.

why has this Negro community not gone down in a chaos

T had often heard that the Ital-
fans of the north were superior
to those of the south. so much so
that it could he sald that they be-
longed to two different races.
‘The Itellans of the north do vaunt
their alleged superiority — over
those of the south. and I, in my
first serles of articles, said the
former were superior. Now, after
passing through hundreds of vil-
lages in the north, well—this
