'BLACKBIRDS' CHORUS GIRL DIES VICTIM OF "WHITE PLAGUE"
Remains of Olga Mae Fanning, Who Also Appeared in "Shuffle Along," and for Two Years at Cotton Club, Buried Sunday at Woodlawn
Olga Mae Fanning, 27, a stage performer who appeared with the late Florence Mills in the original "Blackbirds" company both here and abroad, was laid to rest in Woodlawn Cemetery Sunday afternoon, following funeral services at Howell's Funeral Chapel, 2332 Seventh avenue.
The Rev. Father Shelton Hale Bishop, assistant rector of St. Philip's Episcopal Church, officiated at the services. The actress lived at 141 West 139th street.
Miss Fanning died of tuberculosis at Seton Hospital, Riverdale, near West 231st street, the Bronx, on last Wednesday afternoon, following an illness of three years. She was confined at the hospital for five weeks.
Miss Fanning contracted a severe cold in London in 1926, was unable to work for a year, and then took a part in the black and white Broadway show, "Just a Minute," last September, against the doctor's orders.
Her condition was seriously aggravated, a relative said, by yielding too ardently to the galey indulged in by her fellow workers. She was sent to Mount Vernon and Scroon Lake, N. Y., for a while and seemed to have been doing well until she went back on the stage.

Her condition was seriously aggravated, a relative said, by yielding too ardently to the galeety indulged in by her fellow workers. She was sent to Mount Vernon and Scroon Lake, N. Y., for a while and seemed to have been doing well until she went back on the stage.
At the time of her demise she had become a mere shadow of her former self. She died in a coma.
Miss Fanning returned here from London before Florence Mills for the purpose of filling an engagement in Chicago, after which she returned to New York. She acted as one of the honorary pallbearers at the gigantic funeral of the mourned Florence in November, 1927.
Miss Fanning also appeared in the original "Shuffle Along," Sissle and Blake's and Miller and Lyles' huge Broadway success. For two years she

Druggist Charged Patient $1.90 for $1.25 Bottle of Over-the-Counter Medicine
High Cost of Filling Prescriptions Under Fee System Prevents Many From Calling in Physicians When Ill
In his letter to the Editor of The Amsterdam News, published in full last week, Dr. Louis T. Wright, police surgeon and president of the North Harlem Medical Society, wrote that proof that any Harlem physician accepted a commission from a drug store on the prescriptions he writes and sends to that drug store would warrant his expulsion from the North Harlem Medical Society and all other responsible medical organizations.
It is not the expulsion of any physician from a medical society that The Amsterdam News is aiming at, but the saving of the thousands of dollars which are now being overcharged yearly on Harlem's medical and drug bills by a greedy, unscrupulous and unethical practice for which no particular individual physician or druggist can be held responsible.

Physicians and druggists — at least 101 per cent of them—disavow the practice individually, but admit that it exists in Harlem and elsewhere, among white and colored physicians and druggists alike. The Amsterdam News knows that the practice exists here, that it exacts an awful toll from the sick and needy, and that it should be broken up, by fair means, if possible, but by all means broken up, or at least curtailed.

Its existence blackens the name of all physicians and druggists, whether or not they engage in the practice individually.
It exists. Take our word for it.
How Do We Know?
A man was in our office a few days ago who had gone to a well-known physician. His illness was diagnosed. He paid the physician seven dollars for the two visits made to his office. Two small bottles of medicine went sent to him C. O. D. from a drug store, for which he paid three dollars and fifteen cents, making ten dollars and fifteen cents for the two visits and medicine enough to last about eight days. The man

A short time later Gordon was found unconscious in the hallway and was hurried to Mt. Sinai Hospital, where he died two hours later. Barkley, who fled after the fatal stabbing, was arrested by Detectives Grippen and Smith of the East 104th street station when he returned to his home at four o'clock Saturday morning. He readily admitted his guilt, the police say.

Is This Proof?
But is this absolute proof that the doctor in question received a fee from the drug store to which he TELEPHONED the two prescriptions, you ask? No, but it is proof that the doctor had an especial reason for seeing that the prescriptions reached that drug store.

More than this, the patient in question was overcharged by at least 63 cents.

N. Y. CITY FATHERS COME TO RESCUE OF HARASSED TENANTS
The Aldermanic branch of the Municipal Assembly yesterday unanimously adopted an ordinance designed to relieve the situation brought about by the expiration of the emergency rent laws. The Board of Estimate, which sits as a branch of the city legislature, is expected to vote its approval tomorrow.
Sponsored by Aldermen McGillick and Curley, the bill will limit landlords in their return on investments in tenement and apartment houses. The burden of proving the unfairness of their rentals is placed upon the tenants. Not only will the ordinance strike at unjust profits but it will also govern the conduct of inhabitants, "the protection of their property, tenancy, safety and health."
Racketeer, Who Waxed Fat as Fake Officer, Lands Behind Bars for Threatening to Jail Citizen as Player of Popular Game
Slamming a heavy broadside at the steadily increasing policy industry in Harlem, the Court of Special Sessions sent one "numbers" collector to the penitentiary Monday, ordered a woman to the workhouse for writing slips for a "banker," and meted out an indefinite term in prison for a police impersonating racketeer who made a harvest off timid souls fearful of arrest as players.

Wilbert Lonesome, 23, 149 Edgecombe avenue, died Saturday night in Harlem Hospital as the result of internal injuries due to accidentally falling from the fifth floor window of his home to the rear courtyard below. Irene Walker, same address, was a witness.

Perhaps the most interesting of the jailed trio was Robert Brent, 28, 36 West 117th street, who escaped with a suspended sentence on an extortion charge, but may serve a maximum of three years in the penitentiary for wearing a police shield. A chauffeur when he was not assuming the role of a civic defender, Brent attempted to play his game, May 18, with Arthur Snell, 155 West 143d street.
Meeting Snell on Lenox avenue between 128th and 129th streets, the fake policeman declared: "Get in this taxi and come with me to the Sixteenth precinct. I'm taking you in on a policy charge." Officer David I. Salter of the Sixth Division became suspicious of Brent's actions as he bundled the intimidated man into the car and promptly made the arrest.
Brent changed his plea to guilty Monday and was sentenced on the second charge after being suspended on the extortion count.

The policeman said Wharton asserted it was terribly inconvenient to be caught at the time when he had collected only 114 slips. The collector pleaded not guilty when arraigned and his ball was declared forfeited Sept. 28. After a warrant was issued and he was haled to court again. Wharton's ball was set at $2,500. He changed his plea June 4 and was remanded for sentence Monday.

The woman committed to the workhouse was Miss Nelle Jones, 27, 62 West 135th street. She was arrested with 100 slips May 3 by Officer Peter Reilly of the Sixth Division. Pleading guilty Thursday, she was sentenced to 60 days Monday.

Tragedy stalked in the wake of reconciliation of a wife and her husband Sunday evening when a white man, said to have won the woman from her mate and later lost her back to him, was charged with the murder of his rival and held by the Homicide Court without bail for a further hearing next Tuesday.
John Hill, 22, 206 East 100th street, was the husband who was slain by two shots fired into his chest and head while his repentant wife looked on. Benjamin Bakery, 22, white of the same address, was charged with the killing. He was arrested the same night by Detective Dougherty of the East 104th street station.
According to information gleaned by police, Bakery stole the affections of Mrs. Elizabeth Hill and took her to live with him in an apartment at the East 100th street address. The interracial "union" was not all smooth running, however, and the two quarreled, the reports state.
Mond Hill, 108 East 100th street, and the man sent for her husband Sunday. When the two met all was apparently forgiven, and the reunion was believed complete.
About 6:30 a mock was heard at the door. It was Bakery, the witness, said, demanding entrance. When the jilted lover finally gained admission after being refused he fired a shot at Mrs. Taylor, the truce maker told police.
Infuriated, and with revolver in hand, the man rushed to a room where the reunited husband and wife were. "You're the man I want," he is said to have exclaimed as two shots poured into the body of Hill.

When the bill was passed Thursday, an amendment by Congressman Tinkham of Massachusetts, providing for reducing the count for apportionment in the states where Negroes are disfranchised, was dropped. Another by Representative Hoch of Kansas, in which aliens would not be listed for redistribution of House members, was also left in the discard.
Both amendments had been passed tentatively by the House following the Senate's approval of the census bill the week before. This was the first reapportionment bill passed since 1911. Congress has defied the manifold of the constitution when the 1920 census bill was voted.
Reapportionment is necessary to maintain an equality of representation between the negroes and slave-growing states. It was agreed in 1911 that the House should have 433 members; and reduction of some states' delegates and increase of others was to be decided upon periodically.

White Woman on Trial in Killing
The 21-year-old paramour of Seymour Irick, 27, a musician with whom she lived at 3579 Fish avenue, Bronx, was on trial yesterday in Bronx County Court attempting to prove she shot her common-law husband in self-defense February 7.
The trial was continuing yesterday and soon too, and it was believed that no verifier he be reached until today. The blonde dance class was as her defense that Irick was accidentally killed in their apartment while they were wrestling for the possession of a revolver held by the man. A Pennsylvania small town moth who sought the bright lights of the big city, the girl lived with the slain man for a year following their meeting at a dance hall where Irick played with an orchestra and she danced with unaccompanied patrons. She said that the quarrel arrose when he accused her of paying attention to her men.
The girl was defended by Miss Frieda B. Hennock, the young lawyer of 25 West 43rd street, who has constantly injected the race issue in her arguments for the defendant.
Irick had a legal wife who was awarded administration of his estate by the Bronx County Burrogate's Court.
Dunbar. Tenants To Elect Board
Advisory Body to Be Formed After Delay of More Than a Year
After a delay of over a year, cooperative tenant-owners of the Paul Laurence Dunbar Garden Apartments, 2288 Seventh avenue, are scheduled to elect a Board of Advisors next Monday and Tuesday. The Board of Advisors, one from each of the six buildings, is provided for in the lease and subscription agreement.
Roscoe Conkling Bruce, resident manager, sent noticees to all the tenant-subscribers on Friday to call at the office and receive their ballots, the tenant and the tenant whose name appears on the lease entitled to vote, and tenants may not have anyone represent them in voting, Mr. Bruce stated.
The successful formation of the board, which "shall confer, from time to time, with the officers and Board of Directors of the owner (corporation) and shall place before them such suggestions and recommendations as shall be deemed to be first approved" by the former may definitely put an end to the many misunderstandings tenants have had with the corporation.
Staten Island Man's Indictment Quashed
Upon recommendation of District Attorney Albert C. Fach of Richmond County, Archibald O. Poole, St. George tire dealer and taxi service man, was dismissed Friday on a charge of grand larceny in County Court. Poole was arrested April 27, after the Grand Jury returned an indictment against him, charging that he was the owner of less checks to the State Motor Vehicle. The charge was dismissed by Judge J. Harry Tiernan. The dealer is one of the best known men on Staten Island and is interested in numerous business enterprises.
Motorcyclist Held as Injured Man Succumbs
William Brown, 24, 2419 Seventh avenue, was held in ball of $1,000 Monday by the Homicide Court following the death of Jacob Schwartz, white, 63, 113 East 110th street, from injuries suffered Saturday, when struck by a motorcycle driven by Brown.
A aged man was taken to Beth David Hospital, where he succumbed. Detective Dougherty of the East 104th street station arrested the motorcyclist. The accident occurred at Third avenue and 110th street. Brown told the police that Schwartz stepped to the street directly before the vehicle and the killing was unavoidable. He will have a further hearing June 17.

ANOTHER WHITE MAN OUT FOR 'GOOD TIME' VERY BADLY BEATEN
Victim Collapses When Rescued by Patrolman George Webber—Says Quintette Tried to Rob Him Following Cabaret Party
They never learn, these white men who come to Harlem for a good time with colored women. On Thursday morning it nearly cost one of them his life.
William Prytherch, 31, white, 115 West Ninety-fifth street, was probably saved from being beaten to death by the timely intervention of Patrolman George Webber of the West 135th street station, who appeared on the scene a moment before Prytherch collapsed in a second floor apartment at 410 Lenox avenue, near 139th street.
Four men and a woman had attempted to rob him, it is reported.
As the officer entered the apartment a man and woman fled through a window and up the fire escape to the roof, and got away. Three others were arrested, Samuel Deveraux, 31, a chauffeur, 410 Lenox avenue; Leonard Martin, 28, 35 West 131st street, and Passle Wilson, 26, 204 West 139th street, who were charged with assault with intent to rob.
The trio was aigned Friday morning before Magistrate McQuade for a bail of eight dollars 8,000 hall for a further hearing. Deveraux has been arrested twice in drug charges and once for felonious assault, and dismissed each time.
and utensils were hurled and smashed in the kitchen.
The noise attracted Patrolman Webber's attention, and as he dashed to the second floor he saw a white man break through a door, with a colored man on top of him. The place was in an uproar. The assault victim collapsed and his five alleged assailants broke for the fire escape window when they saw the officer. One of them was a woman, spattered with blood. She and one of the men got away.
The assault victim and Martin are said to have fought with Webber to get free, but the policeman drew his gun and tumbled them up in one room. Webber commanded two of them in
Prytherch said he visited the Abbey Inn, a cabaret at 129th street and Lenox avenue, where he met Martin and had several drinks with him during the early morning hours. Martin is said to have invited him to Devereaux's home for the purpose of meeting a girl for pleasure.
A Furious Battle.
Arriving there the white man was introduced to Devereaux, Wilson, one after man and a girl, it is said, and a sound of a hollown up at the point of knives and rob him. He resisted and a terrific battle ensued. Prytherch is a si-footer, weighing almost 200 pounds. They tried to hold him down and cut him, he said later.
The conflict led through every one of the five rooms in the apartment, Prytherch's assailants slashing him about the face, head and body. Blood spattered over the furniture and the place was wrecked. Victim and enemies were blood-covered. Dishes

and utensils were hurled and smashed in the kitchen. The noise attracted Patrolman Webber's attention, and as he dashed to the second floor he saw a white man break through a door, with a colored man on top of him. The place was in an uproar. The assault victim collapsed and his five alleged assailants broke for the fire escape window when they saw the officer. One of them was a woman, spattered with blood. She and one of the men got away. Devereaux, Wilson and Martin are said to have fought with Webber to get free, but the policeman drew his gun, and lined them up in one room. Webber commanded two of them to bring the unconscious white man in from the hallway. Webber called out the window for aid, and a citizen summoned a patrolman from the Fourteenth precinct. Detective Durning of the West 135th street station came to the scene also.
Dr. Ashkin was summoned from Harlem Hospital and Prytherch was removed thereto and stitches taken in his wounds. On Sunday his condition was reported as not serious. The trio came before Magistrate Douras Monday for a further hearing and were all held without bail to await the action of the Grand Jury. However, during his testimony, Prytherch stated very emphatically that Wilson "had nothing to do with the assault and robbery." Wilson was held with the rest, but expressed great surprise. The white man said he missed his scratch; $70 cash and a gold pen and scratch after the fray.

It required six policemen from the Simpson street station to recuse George Merchant, 37, 950 Aldus street, near Hoe avenue, from a mob of 500 men and women who were seeking Friday night to take Merchant from his basement home when he had locked himself in. He was held captive by a white boy, Robert Reiff, 13, 902 Southern boulevard, following an alteration between Reiff's five-year-old brother, Carl, and Merchant's nine-year-old son, George. Merchant was taken to the police station and charged with assault. After being severely beaten by an angry mob at Houston and Mott streets, Richard Palin, 22, 216 Main avenue, Staten Island, was saved by police and is now a prisoner in Bellevue Hospital on a charge of felonious assault.

Woman Convicted As Robbery Aide
Unsupported White Man Says She Lured Him to House
His story unsupported by witnesses, but ringing true to the jury, Howard King, white, 561 West 127d street, vengeance for being robbed and attacked by a gang said to use woman for lures, when Miss Ethel Jackson, 23, 146 West 128th street, was convicted of first degree robbery Monday in General Sessions.
The girl faces sentence early next week by Judge Cornellus F. Collins, who presided over the trial. King told the court he came to Harlem for a "little enjoyment" and followed Miss Jackson to the top floor of 132 West 143d street. There he was set upon by the girl and two unknown men and robbed of $2 in cash, a hat, pen and pencil, according to his story. The girl was empathic in her denial and declared that she was the face at the time of the alleged robbery. The jury deliberated three hours before arriving at a verdict. Moses A. Sachs, white, 350 Broadway, put up a hard battle for the girl's acquittal, and repeatedly contended that the plaintiff's allegations constituted no proof of a crime.
Burglar, Who Admitted Crime, Given Sentence
The desire of Joseph Barnes, 26, 14 East 134th street, to "get it over with" following his arrest May 18 on charges of burglary was realized Monday in General Sessions when he was sentenced to three years in the penitentiary by Judge Otto A. Rosalsky. Barnes was captured in the act of breaking into the furniture store of Herman Katz, white, 2671 Eighth avenue, by Charles Britten, white, an officer of Phillips Night Patrol, 192 senor avenue. Britten turned his own property to Pocahontas Rufus Scott of the Sixteenth Precinct. Held in $2,500 ball, Barnes admitted the charge to police and pleaded guilty May 28 in General Sessions, immediately following his indictment.

An argument arose between the two, Magistrate Douras was told, after the officer had approached Hargrove as a possibly suspicious character, as the man was carrying a gun under his arm the time. Hargrove and finally, disorderly conduct and given a suspended sentence.

Special Sessions Orders 4 Others to Prison as Addicts
Four men, two of them believed to be drug sellers and two convicted as addicts, were sentenced Monday to indefinite terms in the penitentiary by the Court of Special Sessions. Two others were sentenced to the workhouse on possession charges.
Pleading guilty, Thomas Butler, 27, 223 West 162d street, and Frederick Weeks, 32, 217 West Sixty-second street, a prize fighter, were sentenced to the penitentiary when officers of the narcotic squad and the probation department told the court that the two were sellers. Both men had larger quantities of drugs than are usually found on addicts.
Victims of the drug sent to the penitentiary were: Charles Ward, 30, 1345 Amsterdam avenue, who pleaded guilty, and Charles Walker, 29, a painter who said he lived at 226 West 122d street. Walker was suspended on a charge of possession of a syringe and hypodermic needle. John Trimbel, 23, a waiter, 204 West 144th street, was sent to prison for six months when he pleaded guilty to possession, and Clifford Howard, 43, 336 West Fifty-ninth street, went to the workhouse for four months.

nerce, 2370 Seventh avenue. With restraint and prejudice largely eliminated, these formerly subagulated peoples have been responsible or much of the growth and advancement of the city in all lines, the executive said. Indeed, the Mayor continued, their contributions here have far surpassed those of their native homes. Declaring himself an ardent admirer of all the city's elements, the chief magistrate evoked considerable laughter upon asserting that he could probably be in Ireland planting potatoes if Columbus had not discovered America. "I have no sympathy with the 100 per cent Amerian. With the exception of the Indians we are all carpet baggers."
"As long as I am executive of the city a spirit of fair treatment and decency for all people within our confines must exist," the Mayor said. The speaker then enumerated examples of the progress of the city in education, salaries for civil service workers and dispensation of court justice. He also paid tribute to olderman Fred R. Moore as one of the finest types of New York's citizenry.
Alderman Moore returned the compliments in a speech in which he pleaded for more group progress in farmland. The publisher and political leader declared himself for the changing of the Negro's political complexion in New York and urged that voters cast more of their ballots or the Democratic party in order to share in the government and distribution of patronage. The speaker directed the lukewarm spirit evidenced by the Republicans and asserted that fammany has been more liberal in spite of the little support it gets in farmland.
Edgar B. Gonerys, president of the lub, presided. When the Mayor left he association building he was waited outside by 500 people who heered him as he was driven away.
Four Men Freed in Pocketbook Racket
Charges
Four men arrested by Detectives Crosby, Bauerschmidt and Kochman of Captain Salter's squad, in an apartment at 504 Lenox avenue, on suspicion of being involved in recent larcenies in which several women have been defrauded of their money by means of the old pocket-book swindle, were discharged for lack of identification by Magistrate Vitalie in Harlem Court.
One of the women defrauded was Mrs. Hattie Miller, 10 West 115th street. She lost $200 but could not identify those under arrest as the men who swindled her.
The discharged men were Heywood Park, 33, 17 West 136th street, near Fifth avenue; Inah Poline, 29, and Percy Charity, 21, both of 115 West 144th street, near Lenox avenue, and William Horce, 33, 119

Housing Evils in Harlem Aired at Meeting of Forum at Abyssinian
Masculine Leadership
High rents and conditions of unsanitation in Harlem were the subjects of spirited addresses before the last meeting of the season at the Abyssinian Baptist Church Forum, 140 West 138th street, Thursday night when joint exercises were held by the Women's Political Study Class, the Ladies' Civic Club and the North Harlem Community Council. Aaron Smith is president of the forum.
Helen Hanning, white, chairman of the House Committee of New York City, gave a very sound and commonsense talk on housing and scored the selfishness of politicians of both parties who allowed the Emergency Rent laws to expire at Albany. She demanded that the voters call them to account.
Tenement House Inspector William Deegan spoke of the "superhuman task" imposed upon New York's 268 tenement house inspectors, whom he said had answered 3,000 complaints within three months. All complaints for inspections are answered within 24 hours, he said. He asked the public to co-operate with his department.
A Woman's Answer.
Jane Croiley, 35 West 139th street, head of the Ladies' Civic Club, answered Inspector Deegan's speech by saying, "If the tenement house inspectors have been through Harlem during the past ten years, why has nothing been done?" There was no

Probers Uncover 155 Tenements in 21st A.D. Violating City Regulations
One House Out of Every Four Guilty, Commissioner Reports to Alderman Hawkins After Special Investigation in Twenty-first District
Disdainful of the community's health and general safety, owners of one out of every four tenement houses in the Twenty-first Assembly District are openly violating regulations of the Tenement House Department, according to the report Commissioner William F. Deegan made Friday to Alderman John Clifford Hawkins.
Commissioner Deegan's department has just completed a special probe of tenement-house conditions in the district following an appeal by Mr. Hawkins to Mayor Walker. The city executive brought the appeal for an investigation to the attention of the housing head, who personally directed the probe.
Beginning their survey May 27, the entire inspectors' force of the district, aided by twenty additional investigators, made a canvass of every tenement in the district. A total of 155 houses out of 624 in the district were found to have violations.

Carefully listing every house probed, the force, under the immediate direction of William F. Barry, deputy chief inspector, filed the comprehensive report with the Commissioner.
Mr. Deegan assured Alderman Hawkins that the Department is behind his move to better housing conditions. Owners of the houses have been ordered to remove the violations in five days after notice or be haled before the courts, it was said.
Most flagrant among the blocks with violations were the following: West 139th street, between Seventh and Lenox avenues, five houses. West 138th street, between Seventh and Eighth avenues, fourteen houses. West 140th street, between Lenox and Fifth avenues, six houses. West 137th street, between Fifth and Lenox avenues, nine violations.
Meanwhile, a resolution by Alderman Hawkins asking the Board of Aldermen to petition Mayor Walker for a sweeping investigation of Harlem health conditions rests in the committee room. Mr. Hawkins expects to get the petition before the house at an early date.

Mitchell Switzer, white, representing Alderman Dowd of the 13th District, urged the people to unite in their fight against the landlords to bring down the rents. Richard E. Moore, head of the Harlem Tenants' League, was as militant and fierce as ever in denouncing "capitalism" and high rents. Angeline Blocker, fraternal light, called men deceitful, two-faced and not dependable in the present community crisis. She made a plea to the "coorn-fed ladies" to take action, for the "milk-fed ladies" only sit down and depend on their husbands, she opined. Two resolutions were unanimously adopted by the forum; one to go to Mayor Walker demanding a remedy for the community's high rents and tenement evils, the other endorsing Mrs. E. Hortense Warner, head of the Women's Political Study Class, as candidate for alderman in the 21st Aldermanic District.

rectors, who represents the Negro undertakers in the same manner as the Jewish and Italian directors represent their race. A letter was circulated among the association's members, notifying and warning them of the woman's activities. At each place she would give fictitious names.
At the Howell establishment, Mr. George West, manager, cashed a $20 check for the woman and went all the way to Seaview Hospital, Staten Island, to get "the body," only to find that he had been tricked. Mr. West had been given the name of Mary E. Mars, 335 West Fifty-ninth street, who said she wanted to "bury her daughter, N. C. Mars, 30."
Once Too Often.
It remained for Fred M. Williams, a funeral director at 249 West 128th street, on Friday night, to trap the woman who is said by the police to be the offender. Mrs. Smith is reported to have represented herself to Mr. Williams as Marie Lucas, working in service for a Mrs. Miller, white, 725 Riverside drive, and that she desired to arrange a funeral for her widowed mother, Anne Lucas, 52, 17 West Ninety-ninth street. The funeral was to cost $500 and was scheduled for Monday, the body to be shipped to Richmond, Va.
Mr. Williams' suspicions were not aroused until the woman asked to have a $25 check cashed as a favor. The undertaker took the cue. He consented, and went upstairs and telephoned Detectives Burns and Christiano of the West 135th street station, who soon arrived and placed the woman under arrest. She was identified by several other undertakers as the person who had victimized them, but in amounts never over $25 each. It is said.
Knew Her Bucket.
Cross-examination by the police revealed that the prisoner knew her racket from A to Z. "There was nothing about the burial arrangements that she did not understand," Mr. Williams said.
Her bearing was calm, cool and collected, but she cried just a little at the beginning. Detectives also said that she had an accomplice whom she used at a certain telephone number for the purpose of verifying the lies she told her victims.

TO ASK HOOVER FOR
EXECUTIVE CLEMENCY
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 10 (Capital News Service)—The first plea for executive clemency to prevent an execution will be made to President Hoover in behalf of George Herbert Thompson, 21, slayer of his sweetheart, Elsie R.

"I THINK Cardul is the best builder on the market—I can say this for it was a help to me," writes Miss Margaret Burris, 802 E. Vine Ave., Knoxville, Tennessee.
"During the last year in high school, I felt very weak and run-down. Several of my friends told me about Cardul and suggested that I try it. When I went to college I weighed 85 pounds, so I decided to try Cardul, and when the school year was up, I weighed 120 pounds.
"I would advise any person who is nervous, weak and in a run-down condition to take Cardul, for I am sure it will do them good.
"After taking the Cardul, I am not nervous any more, and I am in the best of health."

Lengthening the Shadow
Of a Remarkable Woman
By NORMAN L. McGHEE
66! 1 thine ownself be true” was never sought to be more
practically applied than in the course being pursued by
Mrs, Sallie W. Stewart, national President of the
Association of Colored Women’s Clubs.
When Mrs, Stewart accepted the presidency of the National
desires and economic needs of the Negro women of Amenes
Association in 1928, she did so with a full knowledge of the social
Within six months from the date of adjournment of the national
conference held in the District of Columbia Mrs, Stewart had

problem facing these ‘women is. the
lack of adequate facliities for the pro-
tection of that large number of giris
tho find themselves compelled to seek
employment in the large cities, A
survey of prevailing conditions
under which they live in the cities
throughout the United : States con-
vinced her of the serloumess of this
problem. The spectacle “of young
girls alone in these cities, away from
home environment, living in rooming
houses and boarding houses where the
single and primary interest of those
in charge is that they pay the week-
ly or monthly room and board bill,
set her thinking. Something simply
must be done, else Negro womanhood
is doomed, she concluded.
Looking ‘about, she found here and
there brave local attempts to admin-
ister to this patent need. In Cleve-
land, Ohlo, she found an establish-
ment known as The Phillis Wheatley
Association, the dream come true of
that remarkable woman, Jane E.
Hunter. This institution 15 the prod-
uct of the very idea which occurred
to her as the possible remedy—home
with wholesome surroundings for the
working girl; @ place where helpful
advice and’ uplifting environment
might be had for that girl who found
herself in a large city without friends
or home.
‘And what @ notable institution this
woman has builded! In briek, and
mortar it represents some $800,000,

How They Stepped
The boys' senior class, dressed in real stage style as red caps, each carrying a small grip, did very good work in a dancing number that would have gone well at any local theatre. The class consisted of approximately twenty.
Miriam Smith's toe specialty was number one in a similar dance by Arnise Mitchell and "Iiss Style" was exceedingly graceful.
"I Love You" Bables.
By far the cutest and most amusing spectacle was the baby class of a half a hundred, dancing ensemble and singing the popular melody, "I Love You."
Before passing on to the second half, mention was intended to be made of Baby Corliss Hargrove, percussionist for Carmine Hargrove on record, who danced in "A Gamp." No. 10 on the program and held many in breathless delight.
Another splendid exhibition in part two was Isobel Stark as contortist; she was well applauded. Lucille and Janetne Wilson, billowed as she were, were just that. A buck and Russian dancer by Billy Lionel Jr. Paul White, and eight others, was very good.
"Dance of the Tamborines," by the girls' intermediate class; "Dance of the Ragdolls," by the junior class; "Dance of the Paper Dolls," the latter; "Dance of the Inez Winters," and "The Georgia Stomp," by Anne Lee Patterson, Elise Hamilton and girls, were all fine ensemble numbers, except that in certain instances several of the girls were not careful to keep in mind.
Five appearances were omitted from the program because of its great length.
The entire program was staged and directed by Miss Grace Giles, known in private life as Mrs. Strange. Miss Elinorist Young, in charge of all music, was at the piano. Other assistants included Joseph Johnson, assistant teacher; R. C. Clarke, business manager; Mrs. Nelle Clarke, secretary; Joseph Howell, stage manager, and Henry Wilson, James, stage manager, Messrs. Bush, Crampson and White.
Trouble Started.
F. D. McAllister, cleaner and dyer, 203 East 127th street, created a disturbance during the performance by his refusal to move from the alley to or to find a 'seat when spoken to by one of the ushers. He became involved in an altercation with Richard Hayden, white, manager of Rockland Palace, and struck another man. When policemen were called to oust him he apologized to the police and structured and paid Hayden $25 cash in deposit on the sack coat McAllister admitted he tore and promised to repair it in his own shop. He was not arrested.—L. B. W.

was but the lengthened shadow of
Jane E. Hunter's founder, forw-
ish her assisted her aid. "In
Cleveland, Ohio," she said, "is the
type of institution I should like to see
duplicated in every city of the United
States."
As a result, there sprang into existence The Phillis Wheatley Department of the National Association of Colored Women with Jane E. Hunter as chairman. The regional chairmen are as follows: Southeastern district, Mrs. Emma Mosey; central district, Miss Georgia Williams; northwestern district, Mrs. Dolly Paries; southwestern district, Mrs. R. B. Sneed; the northeastern district has not been given a chairman as yet. From nearly every state in the union encouraging reports have come from the state presidents, offering their assistance to co-operate in every way possible. They have also appointed splendid women in the various states to make a survey and help in establishing The Phillis Wheatley Department. Immediately upon being appointed to head this department, Miss Hunter issued the following statement:
In every city and town there must and will be a Phillis Wheatley House. A club house that shall be owned and operated by the local clubs that are members of the National Association of Colored Women. The purpose shall be to give protection, boarding home facilities and helpful advice to girls traveling from one city to another. The house will also serve the double purpose of housing juniors. If we are to attract our younger girls, we must provide larger recreational opportunities. Mrs. Saille W. Stewart, our national president, has visualized this noble and far-sighted project and has called to arms every woman, and especially the young women of America, to rally until this project becomes a reality.
For 32 years the women of the National Association have worked in and out of season and the leaders have made a supreme sacrifice to awaken and organize the women of our race. Through their efforts much good has been accomplished and yet the social program of Negro women could have been in a much stronger position had the pioneers of the early days kept their fine influence working full time to the credit of the National Association of Colored Women.
Let any one make a survey of the local club activities and it will be seen

that most houses that offer protection to Negro women are owned and operated by a national association of white women. I venture to say that it would astonish us to note the amount of capital paid into these organizations by Negro women for the privilege we have and do enjoy. Yet we do not own one penny of the vast amount of real estate controlled for our use. We must admit that we have been 'penny wise and pound foolish.'
"In a few cities there exists a club house or working girls' home bearing the name of some great pioneer Negro woman which needs the influence that would naturally come by association with this organization. It is our hope that through the national headquarters a uniform educational program will be fostered for the best interest of all our local branches."

How should you hold a fork? The ideal fork, besides having beauty in the shape and symmetry of its times, is heavy in weight, gracefully proportioned and balanced so that it is a delight to use it. Such a fork should be held well within the palm with the end of the handle secure in the center of the palm. The first finger extends down the handle, pointing to the prongs and pressing firmly on a point about half an inch from the base of the prongs. The thumb and other fingers close around the handle so that the hand gets a firm grip on it. To cut meat, you hold the knife in the right hand and the fork in the left with its prongs down.
When you are eating vegetables, eggs, croquettes, hash and other soft foods, with the fork in the right hand, the prongs are up. The "Wrong Fork." The possibility of being a victim in the wrong fork" situation is reduced to minimum if you remember when you look at the silver at the table to "start with the utensil farthest from the plate and work toward the plate." It is true that some recalcitrant hostesses arrange their silver according to what they think the utensil farthest than they use-sequence; most hostesses however, follow the sequence rule.
The bark of the "wrong fork" is always worse than its bite for, if you pick up the wrong utensil, either a servant will quickly supply you with

Household Hints
To sharpen scissors: Run the blades of your scissors across the neck of a small bottle in the same position as though cutting off the neck of the bottle.
A substitute bodkin: A small safety pin for thin or lacy material makes an excellent bodkin. The pin holds the material securely.
Sewing room hint: Cut the strips containing buttons and buttonholes from discarded garments and use them under a fly in new garments. This saves time and labor.
An improved dustpan: If you bend the hollow end handle of the dustpan to a right angle with the pan and insert a discarded broom handle, you will avoid the necessity of much stooping while taking up dust and trash.
Tested Recipes
Pineapple Betty.
½ of one medium pineapple.
1 cup stale cake crumbs.

August may seem a bit far removed, with June just here and many of the days cool enough for April, but it is a fact that camp registrations for August should come in. now, as August is a popular vacation month and Fern Rock a popular vacation place! Many of the features of camp life which detract from its attractiveness for grown-ups have been eliminated from Fern Rock. First, there is no squad duty—no wiping of dishes nor sweeping of shacks—but a real vacation, as lazy as you please to make it! Then, the camp has its own cook and depends no longer on Bear Mountain Inn for food, but serves meals which are piping hot, well balanced and pleasing to the palate. And perhaps the greatest boon is the closed-in shack, new last summer, which offers a haven for damp days and chilly nights, with its big living room, with fireplace, piano and radio, books, couches and comfortable chairs—not to mention the front porch!

Confidences Questions and Answers By EGYPSY ANN
Does Snobbishness Pay?
THE keynotes of a speech at a recent graduation of young men was that it pays to be snobbish. It brought a storm of protest from college heads and the general opinion seems to be just the opposite.
Young men cannot afford to be snobbish nor can young women.
Let's speak of the girls this week.
Can a girl be a snob and be liked? She cannot. When a girl gets the reputation of being one, men avoid her, as is only natural. Who wants to feel uncomfortable in another's presence? And who gives you that feeling more than does a snob?
You know, girls, you don't have actually to ignore people to get the reputation of being smobby. Your speech and actions are oftimes far more expressive. Do you continually talk about your achievements or what you're going to do and what you've got? Do you criticize people as though you were the very last word in authority? Do you underrate every one else's intelligence and overrate your own nittyfity?
That's not the way to make friends. That's the way to ward them off. Remember that you're not nearly as important in the eyes of others as you think you are. Dear M:

Is Your Neck an Asset?
SOMETIMES. I fear, we neglect our necks. After spending an hour or so making our hair and face look their best, we let the neck look out for itself, which is very foolish. In most cases, the face is naturally lighter than the neck and the contrast, after the face is made-up, is marked. First of all, make sure that your neck is absolutely clean. I speak of the cleanliness that comes from scrubbing. One sure way of removing a particles of dust and perspiration is to cover the neck with cold cream, allow it to remain on five or ten minutes, and remove by the use of a tissue paper towel. The towel will speak for itself. Then, a scrubbing

Bushwicks Fall Before Heavy Artillery Of the Atlantic City Bacharach Giants
Heavy Barrage Against Baumgartner and Friday Sent Nat Strong's Favorites Into Their Dugouts Last Sunday Afternoon
FOGARTY DRIVEN OFF MOUND IN FIRST
About 9,000 Fans Saw Colored Lads Make Merry With the Kandy Kids in Taking Both Ends of the Double Bill at Dexter Park
The Bacharach Giants pounded out a double victory over the Bushwicks at Dexter Park Sunday before about 9,000 persons. The scores were 6 to 5 and 8 to 4.
The failure of the Bushwick pitchers to stand up under fire was responsible for both losses. In the first game the Bushwicks led 3 to 1, going into the seventh, but the visitors shelled Stan Baumgartner from the mound in that inning to tally twice, and then completed their barge against Tom Friday, a newcomer to the Bushwicks, by getting three runs in the eighth. The Bushwicks rallied in their half of the eighth and made one run. They tallied another in the ninth and had the tying run on third, but Epple Barnes grounded out to Reid to retire the slide.

Buck Lai opened the Bushwink ninth by getting a pass and walked. Lindsay replaced Henderson on the mound for the Bacharachs. Lohr sacrileged, advancing both runners. Gerner was near the line, Lohr play and Weiss going to third, Barnes then grounded to Reid. Each team had two scoring innings in the second game, the Bacharachs, and our more in the ninth. The Bushwinks made three in the fourth and led the score in the sixth, but Harry Potter, who was on the mound for both runs, sleep up in the final game. Fogarty Withdrawn. Fogarty started game for the Bacharachs, found him for two walks and three hits to four runs in the second. Cotner replaced Fogarty and pitched shutout until the ninth, when he weak-

Harvey to Retire at End of Present Year
ATLANTA, Ga., June 4.—The last chapel service at Morehouse College was turned over to the "M" Club in order that its members along with the entire student body could pay honor to Prof. B. T. Harvey, who is retiring from coaching at the close of this year.
W. D. Mann, the 1929 football captain, in speaking for the students told how they have learned to honor Coach Harvey for his fighting spirit, clean sportsmanship and the manner in which he deals with his players on and off the field. Dean Archer speaking for the faculty told how fortunate Morehouse was in having an coach such a strong character. He also stated that though we can thank him for what he has done we are not too much of his life into the ceremony. At the close of the ceremony, Lattimer, football captain of 1927 and 1928, presented Prof. Harvey with a beautiful watch from the "M" Club at Morehouse and he has done for athletics at Morehouse and in the South generally.
Beginning with the fall of 1929 Prof. Harvey will devote his full time to the department of chemistry and the "Morehouse Journal of Science" while Ray Vaughn, College star, will take over the coaching.

Batting 'Em Out With Lloyd's Crack Lincoln Giants at Protectory Oval
THE Baltimore Black Sox, leaders in the race for the Negro American League championship, came to Protectory Oval last Sunday to fatten their percentage and increase their lead by a double victory over the Lincoln Giants. But they reckoned without their host. They came, they played and were conquered. But not without a struggle. They came with everything the fans heard they had, and a little bit more. From behind the bat to right field they are strong. The work of Catcher Clark, Marcelie and Dixon was wonderful. Every Lincoln player who tried to steal a ball was called to the cross by the accurate throws of Clark and his catching arm. The defense made a phenomenal one-hand catch of a line drive from the bat. Of Riggs, Wade, and Ball with a vengeance in the first game. Marcelie worked and acted like a ball player. At one stage of the game, with bases loaded, he leaped toward third base and speared a slizzing grounder, got his man at third and stopped a rally of the Lincolnes that threatened the complete annihilation of his team's chances for victory. Warfield and Lundy did not have much to do but what they did do was nice and neat. The hard-hitting Hubbard failed to land on one Sunday, but he is a man not to be trusted too much when welding the willow. In fact, the Baltimore Black Sox have a great team, and they play the game for all that's in it.
YES, the Baltimore Black Sox is a great team, but behold a greater team than the Black Sox is here in New York. Every day in every way they are getting greater and greater. The present hitting fielder team-work and comradeship, if maintained throughout the season, will carry the Lincoln Giants to the first pennant of the Negro American League. And why? Every player on the team is helping the other and the urge for winning is noticeable in all games played at the Oval.
F Charley Smith, of the Lincoln's, continues hitting the ball at present rate, he will hang up a record unequalled by any colored player in the history of baseball. Right now he is hitting like a demon. Any pitcher and everything they throw looks the same to Smitty. He hits them and they are hit. Last Sunday, in the first game against the Baltimore Black Sox, he smashed two home runs over the right field wall. The first homer was made with two on bases in the third inning; his second homer came in the eighth and proved to be the winning run. In the second game of the next two times and then finished his terrific outing of the day with a screaming drive in center for two bases. The boy was cheered for the enthusiastic multitude of fans and was heartily congratulated by his pals. Such hitting deserves applause; it is a wonderful tonic for conscientious ball players. Smitty was donated quite a sum of money for his efforts.
RECTOR and Holland, the two vet pitchers of the Lincoln's, worked the double header Sunday. Rector, in the first game, held the Black Sox down to seven hits and struck out six men. Wilson, of the Sox, was the only man that solved the delivery of Rec. Holland let the Sox down with the second game and struck out three men. Both pitchers worked hard and unrealized that surprised us. Back of them, yelling words of advice and encouragement, he is playing first base good enough for any team, and the sturdy earnest works Geo Scale's. You don't know how well George is playing that bag until you look at his record. Any time there is a play to be made in the infield you will find the Lincoln's second sacker mixed up in the fray and when it's finished you generally find that something has been did.
THE sun was not meltin' last Sunday, but there was a son at the Oval that almost burned up the earth as he traveled around the bases on his drives against center field wall. This boy was hot. He was "Melton," a young man dug up from somewhere by Keanan, Lloyd and Co. He is playing center while Dolly Gray is nursing a sprained ankle. He only had a single, two doubles, a triple and a home run during the afternoon's play. His home run was the winning score in the ninth inning of the second game. Quite a record for a beginner.
THE work of Riggs and Yancy was fine. Washington didn't have much to do. Riggs was jumping around his bag like a Mexican jumping bean and getting everything that came his way. Yancy, the intrepid shorthop of the Lincoln's, goes after everything and gets his hands on many balls that some shorts would not try for. A player of this calibre will make errors but you will very seldom see them lose a game by misplays in closing innings of a game. The wonderful catch of Yancy in the ninth inning of the second game when he jumped high in the air and speared a terrific drive from Clark's bat with his gloved hand and retired the side of a double play, partly verifies my statement. The play had considerable delivery to the game. Spearman and Rojo handled the deliveries of Rector and Holland in grand style. They are a great pair of receivers; good throwers and true.
NEXT Sunday the Cuban Stars will be the attraction at the Oval and Owner Keanan is making preparations to handle a large crowd which continues to grow at every game. Go out and see Smitty hit the ball; and if George Scales has a day on at the bat you will see some of the darned sluggler you ever lapped on a ball field. We expect Melton will be there. Look him over. Pompez, with his rejuvenated ball team, will find them Protectory boys ready and fit for any kind of a bunch he springs on 'em.

McMAHON JOINS JACK FUGAZY
Kid Chocolate the Ace to Be Used by Combination
The hook-up between Jack Fugazy and Jess McMahon may stir activity in the promotional ranks again. The recent desertion of Jack Demsey奏奏 competes against the Madison Square Garden Corporation; but, since McMahon has filled the post left vacant by the ex-Manassa Mauler, renewal of an absolute certainty. Fugazy and McMahon should benefit mutually by the deal that linked them together. Independently, each has a summer season, because one had an outdoor park—Ebebts Field—but no matches to stage therein, while the other showed an abundance of material, but nothing skim to an empoison. The contact relieved the situation.
McMahon will have complete charge of the matchmaking—an art at which few have shown more interest than former Garden designer of callflower entertainments. Twenty-five years of laborious exploring and pairings of pugs have given McMahon his first experience between a top-notcher and a mahoka. He has the happy faculty of spotting palookas at a glance and he is older than a refrigerator master. McMahon's fairness and personality gained him many friends while he held away at the Garden. When he stepped out they didn't leave him. He was attached to him, Kid Chocolate, Joe Dundee, Fidel La Barba, Jimmy McLarnin and Al Brown are some of those who have stuck by McMahon. He will take place on June 19, featuring either Kid Chocolate or Jimmy McLarnin with some dangerous opposition by Benny Bass may be seen against (annonball) Martin on the same card.
Seeks Gregorio-Kid Encore.
McMahon has not admitted it, but it will be difficult to restmate Vidal Gregorio and Chocolate. The Spanish wants to fight Chocolate again and, since Louis Guitterrez, the dusky dandy's composition, something may come of this bout undoubtedly would be a sell-out. The wide divergence of opinion concerning the winner a few months ago, the balyhoo for a return affair between Chocolate and Gregorio. Vidal asserted recently that he would fight Chocolate just for the chance of winning, was the victim of an absurd decision.
McMahon has the best chance to bag the Chocolate-Gregorio encore. He is prepared to offer the little felice receipts, to be shared equally between them for the bout.
Drops Malone but Loses
OAKLAND, Cal., June 10 (A. N. P. P.)—Jock Malone, veteran St. Paul fighter, took all but one round and won a 10-round decision over Wilson Yarbo, Cleveland, in their bout. here.

SATURDAY and Sunday, June 15 and 16, the tennis glante of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York will show their wares up on the E. S. tennis courts, 141st street and Fifth avenue, when the representatives of the three states meet in the fourth annual Cockburn trophy matches.
Each year tennis fans and players of the three states eagerly await the annual clashes between the best matchs of respectful associations, and they will out in force to cheer their favorites on to victory, or console them in defeat.
All three states have been making extensive preparations for the contest, and some very keen and spirited matches are sure to be the result.
Both challenging teams are bent on dethroning New York, who for the first time have been vincible in these matches, winning all of them. Officials of New Jersey and Pennsylvania say, however, this year will be different.
On Saturday New Jersey and Pennsylvania will play, and the winner will meet New York on Sunday. The games will start each day at 1:30 p. m.
Albert E. MacDowell, assistant executive secretary of the American Tennis Association, has been selected as the referee of the games, which are being held under the auspices of the Cockburn trophy committee of the New York Tennis Association.

Eyre Saitch, New York State champion, suffered the only New York defeat at the hands of George Hill, present New Jersey State champion, in a three-set battle. Neither man played top-notch tennis, but the New Jersey entry was men's tennis, in his strokes, which was more than enough for the New Yorker. Neither side had all their first ten men in the lineup, but some good men played on both teams, and while New York won a one-sided victory, a New Yorker had an remarked after the game: "New York defeated the other victories, as long as we defeated Saitch." Such is fame.
The following are the summaries: Fred Johnson, N. Y., defeated W. Willis, N. J. 6-1, 6-4; A. E. Francis, N. Y., defeated Howard, N. J., 1-6, 6-4-5; Rhoda Smith, N. Y., defeated Miss Riddick, N.

EDDIE TOLAN TO COMPETE HERE
Accepts Invitation to Appear in Wingate Memorial Fund Meet
Eddie Tolan, University of Michigan sophomore, protege of De Hart Hubbard and his sprint successor at the Ann Arbor institution, is the first champion to accept the invitation to compete in the General George W. Wingate Memorial Fund benefit meet. At the meet, he conduct at the Yankee Stadium June 17 from twilight to midnight. Tolan is the Negro star who flashed into prominence recently by defeating the Western Conference 100-yard championship in a record 9 5-10 seconds. In the 220 Tolan, in his first varsity season, he second the second 20,3-5 seconds.
This new Wolverine product of Coach Steve Farrrell is built along the lines of De Hart Hubbard, with some of the stockiness that was Howard Schultz, and with both these former Negro flyers. As a schoolboy he was named on the All-American team by Daniel J. Ferris. He won the national interscholastic 100 and 220 yard titles in the 1950s, and he hasn't been beaten outdoors at 100 yards, and in fact all year he has lost but two decisions, one to Percy Williams, the double Olympic sprint champion, in a short indoor sprint, the Big Ten" 220-yard race he had beaten Simpson in the century. Steve Farrrell, who has sent many sprint stars East, including Ralph Craig, Hubbard and George Hester, telegraphed Tolans acceptance of the 1950 national title, that his sophomore was "elated at this opportunity to run in New York."
The Metropolitan committee in charge of the Wingate Memorial Fund meet, the proceeds of which are to go to the Public Schools Athletic League, hope to send Tolan against Claude Bracey, of Rice Institute, Texas National College, A A 100 and 220-yard champion; Karl Wildermuth, of Georgetown, intercollegiate A. A. A. A. 100-yard champion, and George Simpson. Acceptances are expected soon from Bracey and Wildermuth.

New York was fully satisfied when Captain Lloyd led his braves against Cum Posey's famous Smoky City Grays and returned with the bacon, having scored the best five out of a

LOYD Men Showed Pennant Winning Form Against League Leaders Before Splendid Gathering Last Sunday
SMITH OUTSTANDING PLAYER OF DAY
Giants Dropped Monday's Game to the Boys of the Monumental City by an 8-2 Score—League Standing Shows Lincoln and Black Sox Tied
Home run clouts in the final stage of the two battles between the Lincoln Giants and the Baltimore Black Sox enabled the Catholic Presbyterian boys to hold the fort against the invaders from Maryland and beat them twice by a margin of one each time. The Lincoln were the victors in the first tilt by the score of 4 to 3 and in the second by 6 to 8 before 6,500 rosterless Charles Smith, speedy right fielder of the Giants, distinguished himself in both games, hitting two home runs in the first game and a circuit clout and double in the second.
The Sox scored a run in the first frame of the opener and held the lead until the third, when Jim Melton, new center fielder of the Protectory lads, hit a long triple to right field. Washington followed with a single, sending Melton home and bringing Smith up to bat. Smith then proceeded to unlumber the first of his three home runs, thereby annexing three runs for the Giants.
In the eighth inning the Sox made a strong bid for the game when Wilson lost a home run from smashed a homer over the fence, tying the game. But Smith, Black Sox's Nemean once again in the last half of the eighth came to the front and bounced out a nifty, four-bagger, which powered to be the winning run of the game.
Dixon, the Black Sox center-fielder, showed major league form out in the field. In the fifth inning Rigent sent a long fly out to center, which Dixon caught with great agility.
The score of the second game was 6 to 5, and once again Smith sent the Sox down to defeat with his fine work at bat.
The Giants started off with two runs in the first inning, but the Sox took the lead in the second inning. In the fourth inning Smith hit his second home run, sending Melton in before him and tying the score. The Sox scored a run in the seventh, and then until the seventh, when the Giants stened the score with a single tally. The game was decided when in the last half of the ninth, with none out, and the Giants scored 6,500 and the stands were fixed to capacity.

Last Bashwick game lost both games to the Basharcher Giants of Atlantic City, scores. 6-5, both games being good contests. Since the Bashwicks covered from a charley horse, pitched the first game, but had to retire the seventh and the Bashwick thundered tried several new hurlers thereafter as well as in the second content.

FEATHER CHAMP NOW AT LOCAL Y
The featherweight championship of the Metropolitan Y. M. C. A came home to roost at the West 135th street "Y," when at Central Avenue (obviously) the building, Daniels of the local institution decisively outpointed Greco of Central. From the opening gong there never was a man with a military victor. Daniels, always the aggressor, kept shooting a rapiper left with telling effect, while Greco kept backing away. The local boy kept his right arm locked for a second, but could not bring it into play effectively on a retreating target but his class was so evident that he easily captured the title. At hour prior to this engagement Daniels had eliminated another 128 pounder, Mallory of the Harlem Branch, by a decision. The judges drew the disfavor of the two men, but when they gave Greco the decision over Acosta of West 135th street. This bout was a thriller all the way and the fans called for an extra round, but the crowd was as he deserved, there would be an all-colored final.
Jones, a 135 pounder, was all set for the final since he was picked to take his man in the elimination game. He is the man back. Becoming somewhat overconfident and a little careless, he failed to cover up as his man came to the rope and led the league leading him to picking for finishing right a few seconds later in the second round. In the other lightweight elimination bout "Chink" Lind of the North Carolina State team to Horvath of West Side Branch. The fans thought that "Chink" deserved a better break but the judges thought different. Thy Lind had to fight again and succeed placing his man in the finals for the title is somewhat a mystery.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 12, 1929
ON a sun-scoured track in Georgetown, capital of British Guilans, a writer in the New York World world some weeks ago told us, a sixteen-year-old Negro lad staged a real ironman exhibition one day five years ago. Competing for the track championship of Queens College, he sprinted and crossed the finish line in the 100-meter race and the title. He was first in the 220, 440, 880, mils, broad jump, high jump, and hurdle events, and second in the hundred.
The youngster was Philip Aaron Edwards, today the internationally known captain of New York University's track team, holder of two world's records and a host of national and local titles.
There is no miracle, magic, or slight-of-hand connected with Edwards's prominence in the world of tapes and stop-watches. It has been regular of his presence at the track since he first began to spend all his leisure time on the track. It was at this preparatory school that Edwards laid a solid foundation for his present efforts. Then, as now, he was the most proficient at the middle distance events and was also an accomplished high jumper.
In 1925, upon graduation from Queens College, Phil's father, a magistrate in Georgetown, decided to send him to the United States to complete his education. New York University was the institution selected, masmuch had entered in 1923, and his brother K. Preston was the chairman of the track team in 1924. King introduced his new famous brother to Emil Von Elling, track coach, at the K. of C. games in September of 1925, and Phil reported for training shortly thereafter.
Likea Middle Distance.
He started at N. Y. U. as a middle-distance space-eater with nothing definite in sight except the attainment of three qualities—form, physical relaxation when necessary and a sprint finish. In his freshman year and again as a junior he ran cross-country to develop stamina. He has mastered these points, and now confines himself to a trio of specialties—the 600 indoor and 440 and 880 outdoors.

Edwards raced his way into possession of this year. In the Knights of Columbus games he clipped four-fifths of a second off the best a metre event, going the distance in 1:05, and that he was timed in 1:21 4-5 to do the crown at 800 yards outdoors, 1000 yards outdoors, 440 yard indoors, 600 yard outdoors. In the United States, Edwards is a potentate. The time, 1:12, tied the national indies of a second behind the world's mark. Helegiate championship at 880 yards, which he Ireland also contributed a title, that at 880 yards won following the Olympia games last summer, titles also are Edwards'.
Representation of Canada in the Olympics was career. He placed fourth in the 800 metres, the Douglas Lowe, but had the satisfaction of beating United States, who was fifth.
Besides taking an Irish championship following Edwards was one of the men on the last year's relay quartet in a race on the university. Also on the team were Douglas Lowe, Walter Ratha.
Edwards was elected captain of the New Year, and has led the team to a string of success. The most notable achievement was the garnering title at the close of the winter campaign, and paired with the outdoor title. He is quite apt chances.
Besides running in defense of his half-mile chase around the track in the 440. He expect team from Stanford and Southern California in town, Pennsylvania and Yale in the East. He story on the presence on his team of a small group Fürth, Myers, Joe Hickey and a few others-sufficient points to put N. Y. U. on the top.
The Violet star gives all credit for his development into a polished performer to Coach Emil Von Ehl. He was a development man, too much in praise of his coaching. Under a never known anyone who has been overtrained, when a man has worked out long enough. And of the runner, and applies it so that the men go off for him. That is why N. Y.

He holds seven other important titles. He is Canadian champion at 1,000 yards outdoors, 440 yard indoors, 600 yards indoors and 800 metres outdoors. In the United States, Edwards is national 600 yard indoor potentiate. The time, 1:12, tied the national indoor record, and was two-fifths of a second behind the world's mark.

THE PEOPLE MUST BE HEARD
our old? I maintain that we are not giving them a chance.
Why is it so easy to get a dancing class on this age? I suppose you'll say the urge is greater direction, and I add so is the desire to commercialise the talent of these youngsters. That is one reason why more dancing dolls are developed than inverters or swimmers or tennis players.
I am sorry, my friend, that in twenty-five years you have been unable to find a group of girls who had a whole-hearted desire to become athletes. I may ask what the urge to find them is. In less than twenty-five years I have found many such groups, many individuals which have trophies of one kind or another with their contested with their Caucasian sisters.
You see, when the press is derelict in duty then the public remains ignorant. Take my advice, kind-friend, if you want to be a person-helped desire to take part in a dance. Dive into the Y. W. C. A. and watch them swim, then go to the gym. Visit the bathhouse in 134th street some Tuesday evening during the winter months. Then go to the gym. Mother Zion and St. James churches; go to the public school on 138th street some Thursday or Friday evening and you'll see hundreds of them whose hearts are going to get out in the open to try their prowess on track and field and court.
In conclusion I want to state that Mr. Francis has invited me to join the juvenile players' organization committee of the New York Tennis Association, that already plans to attend that already plans are under way to give these youngsters the chance for which they have been yearning and for which I have been pleading. I shall ask for your aid. I shall expect your whole-handed support, for which I shall thank you.
Mr. Bell has very charitably suggested that possibly we failed to understand his article appearing in this column because the article was written in English.
Mr. Bell Writes Again
624 140th St.
New York City.
June 7.
My dear Mr. Dougherty:
After reading your comment on my article, "Give the Girls a Chance," I am of opinion that you did not understand it, or perhaps I did not make myself clear. Anyway, comment is always appreciated by me, because it affords me an opportunity to make myself understood.
Now you claim nobody is denying the girls this chance. I could easily compare this plea with the everlasting wall that is sent up from time to time by press and pulpit, "Give the colored man a chance)" and let it go at that. But my object is much more far reaching than that. So many girls handle it, that have been overcome and some that must be overcome.
It took me quite some time to convince Father Plunkitt that basketball was good for girls and to get permission to play. I remember not so long ago that a girl's athletic club was charged from $3 to $5 for the publishing of news items in certain Negro newspapers. I remember not so long ago that Ask Manager Sarah Pollard of the Defender Girls how many colored basketball players of note she has asked to coach her team and with what result. Ask Manager Sarah Pollard of the member of any of the tennis clubs in Harlem how easy it is to get an experienced player to go on the court with him, and then get the expression on his face. No, friend Dougherty, we don't. Then there is another angle to this question. A girl, in order to become proficient in any form of athletic games, must start between the ages of 7 and 10. You must admit that it is impossible for a girl to play without the aid of grownups. Those girls must be furnished with equipment, which in the case of tennis is very expensive: no matter how great the urge is, you must pay the funds for much things without
I am very sincerely yours,

NEGRO LEAGUE RACE TIGHTENS
Lincoln Giants Surprise Banned Players Return Soon—New Men Help
Two Pacific Coast players have strengthened the Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City, and Ben Taylor's team is looking much better now, thank you. Connie Day, who has been East before and who starred in past years with Baltimore, Harrisburg and other teams, is on second for the Shore boys and Jess Walker has replaced Eggleston and Bobby Williams at third base. Walker is 22 and has played for several years with Winter league teams in Los Angeles.
One of the surprises of the season has been the hitting of Ben Lindsey and his sprightly fielding. The shortstop looks better than he has or several seasons. Luther Farrell has resigned from the league since he secured an appointment as a traffic cop in Atlantic City. George Carr will be eligible after June 24 and the Bees will then be set for the season.
An unheralded pitcher from Jacksonville, Everett, Joined the Lincoln's recently and made his league debut in bringing the Grays to no runs and sk hits. Cormack demonstrated that he is one of the best hurlers in the game by his work thus far. Indeed, the whole Lincoln team has been a sensation and John Henry Lloyd is once again proving just how Namon Washburn, Gray and Charlie Smith shape up as the best outfield in the league both in hitting and fielding. In the infield Riggins and Scales are, with the latter leading the pack in home runs. The big bats of Jud Wilson and Rap Dixon have begun their thunder for the Baltimore Black Sox and the consistent clubbing of this pair is keeping the Sox up there. Scrip Lee, east aside by Hildale in 1928, was not able to be anything but a relief hurler in the Washington fishmonger has been one of the best pitchers in the league.
Old Joe Williams and Sam Streeter have been pitching wonderful ball for the Grays, who have been handicapped for the Stevens and Gardiner. When these two problems are settled for the Posey-Walkermann, things will begin up in the Homesteads. Beckwith, Camayne and Emmett along at a 400 batting clip and Jap Washington and Owners are not far behind.
Highpockets Hudspeth is demonstrably in his palled limbs. His fielding at first base for Glan Darble has bordered on the marvelous and he has been almost timely hitter. In the absence of Mackey or Bauer, Lewis has been a hero and has hit well in the pinches. The power of the bats of Judy Johnson, Oscar Roberts and by opposing moundman without the Cuban, called from the infield to the hill, has pitched some remarkable games, fitting in well with the pitching and Cooper, Cliff Carter, on the injured roll, is ready to take his turn.
The holdback of the Cubans has been affected by the absence of San. Omis Bejamo, Malilo, Bragans and others. But this club is always dangerous and will soon hit its stride. The new men—Correa, Ramos andamberto—have made good and the old will be beaten with OscarLevis, Fabre, Bare, Perez, Alfonso and Fernandez on its roster.

and as we do not speak or understand any other language, accept Mr. Bell's gesture with a bow and a knowing smile. Mr. Bell tells us above that he can compare the plea that nobody denies the girls a chance with the ever-lasting wall sent up by press and pulpit to "give the colored man a chance."
The comparison, naturally, would not be able to inform what to.Mellon seeks to convey, for he it is who has made the game, and it should be left to you, as he has made the same old wall when the truth of the matter is that we must not only as individuals, but as a race, create our chances. This is more far-reaching than to assert, than that which Mr. Bell imagines so far-reaching in his opinion.
The fact, my dear George, that it took you so long to convince Father Plunkitt that basketball was good for the game does not matter. Many, many years before you did succeed in convincing my good friend Father Plunkitt we were acting as mentor to the famous Spartan Girls of the 1960s and then swung into basketball in 1969, for that unbeatable combination of beautiful basketball tossers-known as the Washington Girls. With a will to do and regardless of the men; Iadore Kenny himself; and others, put the pet necessary into creating for themselves a chance.
Those were the good old days when Harlem was in the making, George, and before you er-er-er-err-came upon the horizon. As for the newspaper there are many angles surrounding that you know, George, the Negro newspaper has just started to emerge from a condition over which it had very little control in the early days of its existence, and while we are fortunate in that we never yet charged for articles of the kind which you intimated the girls sought to insert into a certain newspaper, we can see no harm in the case at point.
The newspaper owner had a product which he was digging down into his own pockets to produce. The circumstances surrounding our existence in

CLERKS' CLUB IN JAMAICA SUNDAY
Uncle Sam's Postal Employees to Meet Jamaica Tennis Club
Merrick Park, in Jamalaca, L. I. will look like a post-office convention ground next Sunday afternoon, judging from the number of clerks in the building, rather than urge the members of the Clerks' Tennis Club on to victory over the Jamaica Tennis Club. Many clerks are taking their entire families, while others are organizing basket balls to make a genuine picnic of the occasion.
This being the clerks' first engagement against an opposing club, they are very anxious to start right and, with such in mind, they have been busily preparing themselves. Capt. Gonzalo Mina of the Clerks has notified every man to be in Jamaica ready to play, Sunday afternoon. However, he is instituting a policy of letting no man know beforehand whether he is to play or not.
The Jamaica Tennis Club is expected to present quite an array of talent in Messrs. Duncan and Frank Turner, Murray, Percy Lilly, the Bundiks and the senior Turner, who can always be relied on to give a good account of himself. It is thought that the foregoing list of dependables on Jamaica's squad may have been strengthened a lot from the many newcomers who are now making that section their home.
Regardless of who wins, however, this spectators are sure to witness some spirited tennis. Depending solely on the outcome with Jamaica is the acceptance of a challenge from the strong Corona Tennis Club to the Clerks.
"Corona," says Mina, "is one of the strongest local clubs in the Metropolitan district; yet, should we beat Jamica; they are simply next. And if you don't beat Jamica?" queried a representative of this paper. "Aw, don't talk like that," responded Mina.

Another Friend Passes
In the death of John J. McCaffrey the sport world of this country has lost another splendid example of a recorder of events who could be fair to all races. White men like John McCaffrey are so few there can be no denying the justice of our right to rise and mourn at his bier along with a host of friends who knew him well in the heyday of his career.
A strange coincidence indeed that his death should come so shortly after the demise of the late T. A. (Tad) Dorgan of the New York Evening Journal. A close friend of Tad for many years, he was not dimmed even when an exacuse illness kept him confined to his bed.
Tad's accomplishments as a cartoonist and writer give us an opportunity to speak of a phase of journalism that is most appropriate at this time. Nincomposbs believe that a sport editor should be seen around the ringside, at games, etc., to be able to comment on the content of an eagerly sought. This was disproved in the case of Tad and others of the big dalles, because after all is done and done reporters gather all the information they need. If they are bright enough, upon receipt of such news real editors immediately throw themselves in imagery and when their paper mencil or typewriter writes finis to what they have to say, the tired business man and others read with a full meed of applause. The same is true for such men as Tad, McCaffrey and the host of others.
Unfortunately, we have within the race a number of columnists and others who are more moved with the desire to strike a pose at athletic events than to be going on. The advance of journalism in this country should be carefully studied by those malicious few far without the pale of the acquaintance, white race, and when they would have studied their methods they will not only learn something in the line of sport writing, but they would also maintain as their foundation homes from whence comes inspiration for their finest thought. The history of this country will prove that from the men who have the love of home that have accomplished most, and not the men, restless because of the lack of a staple foundation, who seek at every moment for posing before the crowd as "the fellow who writes for the Oatskoh News." We thank our white friends who went out of our way to get in touch with them, passing of another friend in the person of John J. McCaffrey.

Sunday School Parade Brilliant
---
Last Thursday, June 6, the 100th Anniversary of the Brooklyn Sunday School Union was a banner day for Concord Baptist Church Sunday School School, superintendent. At 2:30 P. M. the exercises began with an audience present of approximately 1,000. Mrs. Elizabeth Ross Haynes, A. B., A. M., of New York City, wife of Dr. George E. Haynes. Ph.D. was the teacher of the course delivered a very interesting and instructive address. In her talk Mrs. Haynes stressed the necessity of being 'hungry' for the finer and nobler things of life, using the synonym 'simple' to music much of her time and talent in religious and social uplift. She is the only Negro member of the National Board of the Y. W. C. A. The speaker was introduced by Capt. C. C. Cooper. The program included the Scripture reading by the pastor, Rev. James B. Adams. The invocation was made by Mr. James Farrar, Mrs. Dorothy Etheridge, assistant superintendent, was the mistress of ceremonies and director of music. Orator, Newton, and Mr. Paul Stewart, school aid.
In the parade, in which twenty-four schools took part, Concord won two firsts and one second prize out of a total of four. One first was for the first place; one second was for the first for the best marching order and appearance, and second for the second best pageant with religious appeal. The float was designed by Miss Marjorie Parsons. A.B., popular young lady and teacher, was senior division of the school. Miss Parsons is a graduate of Smith College.
The pageant was directed by Miss L. Frances Phillips, also a teacher in the senior division. Miss Phillips holds the degree, Bachelor ofology from the University of Boston, Mass. There were 750 in line of march from Concord, led by a section of the famous Monarch Elk Band of Manhattan. The music was appropriate and spicy, interesting feature in Concord's line which occasioned most favorable applause was the bugle and drum corps of Concord, consisting of about 30 young men, 25 of whom were ages of 7 and 15. Although they have been organized more than three or four months, they play almost like real veterans. Special credit is to be given Mr. Paul Stewart, the school president, and unaccompanied to have Concord present such a creditable showing.
There were many friends on the side lines to cheer and compliment the Concord players, splendid appearances. After the parade Concord's line marched back the street, tired, hungry and happy, when the team refreshments. It was unanimously agreed that it was the finest turnout Concord has ever had in its history.

DUM VIVIMUS VIVAMUS.
Do not delay until the breath
Has ceased to function in your
face.
Do not remain till after death
To show you loved him to the end.
While he is living, let him live
all the environments of joy.
Speak cheering words, and to him
give
Those things that never would annoy.
Say them while yet his ears can hear;
Give him while yet his hands can feel,
For when arrives that hour we fear.
We can't to him our love reveal.
Instead of weaving costly flowers
To decorate his corpse with wreathes.
Beowulf in his troubled hours
That he may smell them while he breathes.
Keep not the affection that is worth
Your love and tenderness concealed
Until he sinks beneath the earth
And then to have it all revealed.
Give me sweet perfume while I'm here.
Speak kind of me while I'm in sight.
The author of the above is but a schoolboy of tender years who, we are willing to wager, gloried in childhood, and we are even early in life is intelligent enough to see things in their true light — The Editor.

From several statements I have
heard. I think the following article will
clarify matters:
There are a number of people who
still have a confused idea concerning
Brooklyn Dally Times to the Prospect
Park Zoo. These people have evidently
been reading about the contest carried
on by the New York Journal. There-
fore they are necessary. Two elephants have
been added to the Prospect Park Zoo. The
large one was given through efforts put
forth by the Brooklyn Dally Times; the
other by the Journal. A contest was
ing of the smaller elephant.
The name of the elephant given by
the Brooklyn Dally Times is Topsy.
No contest has ever been held for the
enaming of elephant. The elephant
has not even been awarded for
changing the name until attention
was called to this matter. This statement
is authentic and has been con-
firmed by information received at the
office of the Brooklyn Dally Times.
Very truly yours.

Closing Saturday, Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds" Come to Alhambra
GEO. RANDOL PRESIDING
Big Midnight Show Sunday
Night Will Include Many
Well-Known Performers
No less generous in giving their services than their predecessors at the Eitinge Theatre, the stars of Lew Leslie's No. 2 Company of the famous "Blackbirds" will swing into Harlem next Sunday night at the Alhambra Theatre, supported by a number of well-known acts which gladly volunteered to appear in a midnight performance for the benefit of the Scholarship Fund of the Pennsylvania Red Caps.
The "Blackbirds" will close their season at the Elfinge Theatre the coming Saturday night after enjoying one of the most successful road trips which found the company playing to large houses in Philadelphia, Boston and other cities. It was from Boston that the fame of the little Harriers of the theatrical world, and she also has the distinction of being one of the youngest stars to lead such an important array of performers as constitutes the "Blackbirds."
Miss Calloway will be seen for the first time in Harlem since she has enjoyed such wide popularity with the Leslie Company. Other popular and widely known entertainers from the same company gracing the bill will include Harrington John, Jesse Zucker Harrington, Harrington Joiner and Foster, Emmett Anthony, Cecil Mack's Porgy chorus, the Four Bad Men and many others from the same company.
Dave and Dewey, assisted by Jesse Crawford and Bertle Baker; an Irving C. Miller chorus of dancing dandelions to start the proceedings and set a hot pace; George Wiltshire and Sandy Burns in "A Series of Laughs," and some of the best acts now playing around New York will round out the bill. Alle Ross and the justly famous Blackbirds Orchestra of twenty pieces will finish with George Randol, who has in the past made quite a hit as master of ceremonies at a number of successful midnight shows, will again preside and keep things moving.
Captain John Henry Lloyd and his famous Lincoln Giants will be among the celebrities to be given a hand from the stage, while Kid Chocolate, the sensation of the roped arena, is also expected to take a bow. From the way things are shaping up it would seem that Harlem will put the final touches to the closing of the "Blackbirds" for the season in a most appropriate manner. Included on the bill will also be a number of acts from the boys of the Pennsylvania Bears Capes with Julius Penn returning to the stage for a few minutes, recalling the days when he was the outstanding comedian with J. Leubrie Hill's sensational "Darktown Follies."
The management of the Alhambra Theatre has joined with Herbert Bruce in making the final arrangements, which should bring to the Seventh avenue house one of the largest audiences of its kind to a midnight performance vying with the best that has, been presented here during the season by Lew, Leslie, brother of Lew, who has always taken a keen interest in the presentation of these midnight performances for the benefit of worthy charities, will be in full charge of the stage at the Alhambra Sunday night.
"Bomboola" at the Royale
Riving Cooper announces that his new musical comedy, "Bomboola," will open at the Royale Theatre, New York, on Monday, June 17. The complete cast includes Isabell Washington, late star of "Harlem"; Burnett and Bailey, George Randol, Billie Cortes, Carmen Marshall, Collington Hayes, Mercedes Gilbert, Monte Hawley, McClain Twins, Billy Andrews, and the new dance sensation, "Derby."

Edward Locks, the playwright, who claimed that he is entitled to one-third of the royalties that Garland Anderson, dramatist, received for writing "Appearances," which recently was presented at the Mansfield Theatre, lost the decision of the arbitrators appointed to pass upon the case.
The arbitrators decided that Locke was not co-author of the play with Anderson and assessed him the sum of $25 for the expenses of the arbitration. The arbitrators were John David, Walter C. Van Brunt and R. T. M. Scott.

Leslie Show a Big Sensation
Parisians Flock to Moulin Rouge to Witness Opening of "Blackbirds"
A cable despatch to this paper on Monday from Paris brought the information that Lew Leslie's famous 'Blackbirds" had one of the most sensational openings ever accorded a show, black or white, at the Moulin Rouge last Sunday. 'Tickets for the show had all been disposed of long before the opening, and the management was forced to close the doors so our large and intimidating crowd seeking entrance to the world famous amusement palace.
Among the gathering were also leaders of American society who, for the night at least, seemed to be proud of the success of the colored Americans making up the roster of the most successful aggregation of entertainers since "Shuffle Along." Vieing with the Americans were the majority, who usual went out of their way to show their appreciation for the talents of the stars of the show.
Never before in the history of theatricals at the French capital has there been such a sensational opening, and Lew Leslie, still proud of his work, has been able to mountments to stage one of the biggest parties to the members of his company within the next few weeks. Represensntatives from the theatrical agencies of Germany and England could hardly wait for the final curtain to close, and the manners for the appearance of the "Blackbirds" in Berlin and London.
It is said that one influential theatrical manager from Great Britain was so insistent in his demands for the appearance in London of the show, he took occasion to remind that he had crowned heads and her nobility, opened its heart to the late Florence Mills and is anxiously waiting to accord a warm welcome to the organization of which Miss Mills was such

this country are of such he was forced to depend upon his own people for his existence to carry on the battle in their behalf, and if they were moved with an urge to create a journal wherein they could tell the world of their hopes and aspirations until such time as he got upon his feet, wny, where's the harm? You know, George, the history of the newspaper (white) in America will disclose that the same thing held good among the Nordics. Lots of us, George, are enjoying the prosperity of the press and know how many of us know or care about the warlike man by our predecessors which made it possible for us to come and pose as reformers and public benefactors? Ah, my boy, there's the rub!
We repeat, with all the emphasis at our command, that if the girls really wanted a chance to engage in athletics they would of themselves have created
that chance, but if the girls wanted to get into the limelight via basketball and become an outstanding bunch of players before the multitude overnight, then, brother, that is entirely different. Negroes in the West Indies sat on the sidelines and saw the Englishman engage in his national game of cricket, and when the time was ripe they went out and mastered the art. They had no coaches. In the pursuit of any amateur game intelligent people study the rules and practice so they can master any game. In fact, George that why such pursuits are called games. They are easy to acquire. And in playing the game for the game's sake it is not necessary to become an expert. Ye gods, we thought you would recognize this. In a country, friend, where the opportunities are so great even for young people to earn a little money, where "is the hardship to purchase the necessary equipment for the playing of tennis?" Nish. In the pursuit of anything we want to do we must learn to

make the sacrifice. This thing about the press being derelict in its duty to record a game or two between people more interested in playing the game is but the empty sound beaten upon somebody once in a while by somebody totally ignorant of what they are talking about.
What has the press got to do with me and my fellows if we get together and decide for the game's sake to engage in the healthful pastime of athletics? Is it that we only engage in it for a pose, asking that the press give us the once over and tell our friends that we are engaging in athletics? Junk Brother, you have got the professional psychology all warped with the true amateur spirit of sport. We have personally engaged in sport and never had an audience. We have the tiller of a shee drawn cutter in a spanking glove and feel the salt spray on your face as she cuts through the water? Did you ever sit atride a mount full of life and fire with the foam flecking you as he heaves and pitches with the joy of living and the desire to get from under your control?
Did you ever on the open lot, just you and twenty-one others, kick around the bounding sphere or even chase the elusive tennis ball, or engage in the many other forms of play without the thought of a court? Say, brother, do you not know that as taxpayers we do the right to the open fields in Central Park, baseball, tennis, etc.? You warp my statement by saying that in twenty-five years you are sorry I have been unable to find a group of girls to engage in athletics. I said that, as a whole, we lack the urge. We know more about what has been done, what is being done, and the promise of what we hope will be done in athletics where the girls are concerned, Brother George, than you do, for we have fostered it personally for more than twenty years, and long before, as we did long before he met the making and long before you ever thought of playing bender to the ladies.
The trouble with so many of us is that we cannot do anything without having an audience, and if it is true that, get this now, as a whole the desire exists among our young ladies to do

and dare for the game's sake, and not for the sake of applause, no power on earth can stop them from taking advantage of the many opportunities right at hand. You and your claim remind me of the white men in the South constituting themselves self-appointed protectors of their women against Negro men. They loudly blast of a non-existent fear, as it has been proven time after time that white women are just as safe among Negro men as among their own, something we cannot say for the white men where colored women are concerned. Give 'em a chance! You also remind me of a number of my fellow trying to break into journalism and hollering about somebody not giv-
ing them a chance. We made that chance which later found us carrying on for more than twenty years, and now, taking a leaf from the page written by the good Heywood Brown, we also close this argument. The Lincoln Giants are raising Cain in the lengue, tennis is getting set, truck and field athletics are in full blast, the boy continue to lambast one another in ring, and with those and other activities in the world of the theatre and conducting our page of a different nature for the people of Brooklyn and Long Island, it can be seen we have nothing to do until tomorrow, so goodbye, George. No more for the present. Give the other fellow a chance.

The image contains two distinct sections. On the left, there is a black-and-white photograph of a person sitting in a chair, holding a book and looking at it. The chair is positioned in front of a desk with various items on it, including a lamp, a notebook, and some papers. The background is a dark, indistinct room with a window.
On the right, there is a grayscale image of a person lying on a bed. The bed is covered with a blanket, and the person appears to be resting or sleeping. The background is a dark, indistinct room with a window.
Chapel Preferred
Many people prefer having funeral services in a well appointed Chapel, rather than burden their home with sad memories, especially where there are children in that home, and also because of living in small apartments.
Location Important
In selecting my Funeral Home, 249 West 128th street, away from the congested avenues, I chose this neighborhood, quiet, and befitting funeral services, where refined and dignified funerals, within the means of all, can be had amid the most appropriate surroundings.
Economy and Service
Always suggesting to the public the latest and better ways of arranging funerals, as economical as possible, with ideas of comfort, elegance, dignity and convenience, and with fairness that appeals to the finer sentiments of all, has enabled Fred M. Williams to have one of New York's foremost and unexcelled Funeral Homes.
REGARDLESS OF ANY KIND OF FUNERAL YOU MAY DESIRE, CONSULT ME
BY CHARLES T. MAGILL
The eighty-fourth grand lodge communication of the Free and Ascpted Masons (Prince Hall) was held Wednesday and Thursday in the auditorium of Mother Zion Church. Daniel T. Teagle, grand master, State of New York, was unanimously elected for another year.
Other officers elected were: Edward T. Sherwood, deputy grand master; Edward S. Conyera, senior grand warden; Arthur W. Handy, grand secretary, and Harvey E. Williams, grand treasurer. Only two new officers were elected at this session and they were elected to the board of trustees. They are Charles A. Williams, past master, St. Cecile Lodge of Brooklyn, and E. Harrison Clark. The other two members of the board re-elected were William H. Weaver and Thomas G. Ball.
The session was called to order promptly at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday morning with prayer by the grand chaplain, William S. Dukes of Boyer Lodge No. 1, and the grand master immediately after delivered his address.
Makes Important Recommendations.
Mr. Teagle spoke of the trials that he and his cabinet have endured since his election as grand master two years ago.
Among Grand Master Teagle's recommendations, all of which were favorably acted upon by the committee on grand master's report, were:
That the grand body endorse the
act of the Prince Hall Bondholders' Corporation in purchasing the piece of property located at 237 West 129th street to meet the housing needs of the lodges of the first Masonin district.
The session voted to levy a tax of one dollar on each member in the jurisdiction to meet the legal expense of fighting the suit that has been instituted by the builders of the defunct temple in West 144th street, and the grand master has already issued an edict to that effect, the tax to be paid by July 15.
J. Daimus Steele, formerly a member of Mount Hope Lodge No. 52, was peremptorily expelled from the order because of his renouncement of his Prince Hall allegiance and his acceptance of membership in a body calling itself the Grand United Masonic Orient. Under the terms of his expulsion, Steele may not be permitted to return to the fold should the Prince Hall Masons ever absorb this body.
Uniting Other Masons.
A feature of the session was the visit to Grand Master Tengle of Henry A. Toppin, grand master of Hiram Grand Lodge, a body termed "spurious" by Prince Hall Masons. Mr. Toppin, in his interview with Mr. Teagle, finally came to an agreement whereby between 500 and 600 members of the Hiram organisation will be taken into the Prince Hall fold. This addition to the ranks of real Masons will mean added strength and possibilities. Twenty-eight lodges were represented, a greater number than ever heretofore. Numerically the order has shown advancement during the past year and financially it is better than it has been in several years.
The threatened opposition to the re-election of all the present officers dwindled on the eve of election and when Teagle's name was placed in nomination by Cornelius Hughes it was seconded by Samuel A. Gibbs of Brooklyn. Teagle's re-election makes him the twenty-fifth grand master of Prince Hall Masons in this state, the first being Paul Drayton in 1845. There

HOLD FUNERAL SERVICES FOR HARLEM NURSE
The body of Miss Amber June Myers, 38, the first Negro nurse to be graduated from the Bellevue and Allied Hospitals, was sent to Columbus, Ohio, Thursday morning for burial. Funeral services for Miss Myers, who suffered from chronic nephritis from May 8 to Monday, June 3, were held at the Abbyian Baptist Church last Wednesday night. The Rev. Willard Monroe officiated. Clinton Brooks, undertaker at 149 West 128th street, was in charge of the body.
Miss Myers entered the Harlem School of Nursing in 1822 and was graduated in 1925. Until the time of her illness she was in charge of Female Surgical Ward No. 7. The diseased is survived by two sisters.
UNITED PRESBYTERIANS
REFUSE TO MERGE
WASHINGTON, June 10 (Capital News Service)—The General Assembly of the United Presbyterian Church of North America, in convention in Pittsburgh last week, voted down by an overwhelming majority the proposal for a merger with the Presbyterian Church in the United States.
are two former grand masters still alive, Joseph Sullivan of Truy and Henry A. Spencer of Rochester.
For the eighteenth time, Mrs. Alice Campbell was elected worthy grand matron of the order of Eastern Star. Others elected were Elizabeth Marshall of Utica, assistant grand worthy matron; A Taylor, worthy grand conductress; Rosa Peyton, assistant grand worthy conductress, and Emary W. Whitleman, grand patron. The latter is the only new officer elected. He won out over James M. Mason of Buffalo, who has held the post for twenty years.

instatement of Police Lieutenant

tion, ‘The Civil Service Commission
heard the appeal of Lieutenant Dugan
from the sentence imposed by Jersey
‘City’s Commissioner of Public Safety
aad smmediately reinstated him with
out even & i
‘The N. A. A. ©. P. resolutions say
that this reinstatement 1s “contrary to
the conclusion reached by the Prose-
eutor of Hudson County,” and that it

sioner of Public Safety of Jersey by
robbing him of control of the Police
Department."
‘The N. A. A. O. P, called upon the
Prosecutor to ‘continue to press for
the indictment of Lieutenant Dugan,
directed the Governor's attention to
the “chaotic state of affairs” in po-

NORMAN THOMAS, Socialist candidate for the Presidency last November, has attacked the Walker administration for failing to pass a municipal rent law to take the place of the State emergency rent laws. He says that the rent problem in Harlem is especially bad, that in one case in Harlem rents have been raised from $47 a month to $75 a month at one jump. NO ONE BEGRUDGES landlords a fair return on their investments, but this return can be secured without gouging. It is not necessary to raise rents nearly sixty per cent. Students of household economics estimate that a man's rent should be twenty per cent of his income. Residents of Harlem pay from forty to sixty per cent. The result is overcrowding, which does not make for normal living. The city should use its power to better the people's condition.

PROFESSOR ROGERS has been widely criticised for his hard-boiled speech, and it seems censurable at first glance. No intelligent man really wishes to be a snob. Harvard's greatness must have more to it than a big front; no front can deceive people for three hundred years. As for marriage, stenographers are apt to be more winsome than bosses' daughters and harder to win.

Too many college men, fearful of being called highbrows, are stooping to the level of the rabble in speech, tastes and manners. They are afraid to be themselves. The professor's opinion is that if a college man has the speech of a bum, the tastes of a cad and the manners of a boor his education has been a waste.

America's Criminal Element
PRESIDENT HOOVER has solemnly warned the people that the United States is the most criminal of the civilized nations of the earth. This statement not only startled the nation, but startled the world by its frankness. We are prone to boast of our moral leadership and to assume the moral monitorship over the conscience of mankind. But now comes Mr. Hoover with his Quaker bluntness and makes the nation face the naked truth.
America stands self-confessed as the wealthiest and the wickedest nation on the face of the globe. As she wallows in wealth, she waxes in wickedness. Mr. Hoover has essayed the task of a social engineer with calculated purpose to set the nation to rights. He goes about the task with the scientific precision which characterizes his profession. First, there must be a survey to determine the nature and cause of prevailing lawlessness before adaption. He applied. His Law Enforcement Commission is calculated to serve this preliminary purpose.
The Negro forms a well defined group, circumscripted and set apart beyond any other element of the American people. The Negro race has more imperfections of various kinds than any other section into which our population is divided. These imperfections are easy to account for and to explain, but the Negro race is more ignorance, poverty and cruelty. Negroes than among white people. The criminal rate is alarmingly

THE vogue of the Negro continues with unabated vigor in Europe, and even in America.
Jazz is revolutionizing the white man's music; Negro art is introducing new forms into the old Greek styles; Negro dancing is putting more vigor and joy into that art; Negro comedy is making humor more spontaneous, and so on.
Under Negro influence, white civilization is undergoing a renascence. Books, magazine articles and reviews continue to testify to this recently in L'Intransigeant, leading Paris evening paper, appeared an article on "Primitive. Art" by Adolph Bassler, who is the author of that subject which will appear shortly.
Mr. Bassler attempts to show the powerful influence that African artists have on art, continues to exert on white art. The vogue for things Negro, he declares, which began shortly before the war, is more triumphant than before. The vogue for the pays such high tribute, it must be remembered, are also a Negro people. The following is a free and somewhat illiterate translation of Mr. Bassler's article: I must say at the outset that it is not at all the result of ethnologic studies that we have taken a liking to the art of those people called Negroes in the present artistic movement.

I have felt, as so many others, the haunting beauty of the sculptures of black Africa and Melanesia. This face is apt to in a recent book, as follows:
"Many artists are following in the wake of the antiquarians and the ethnologists in the search of Negro and Oceanic sculptures. The Oceanic people are of Neargold descent. They are in these fetishes, a certain indescribable originality of form that is destined to change the old Greek styles."
To the naturalistic vision of the earth, there be better opposed, a symbolism exalting the simpler forms, barbaric styles, structures roughly sketched.

MOST stories about Negroes by white authors have the sickening effect of a white vaudeville trouper who blacks himself up and tries to sing and talk Negro dialect. The authors themselves would be the first to point out the absurdities of such stories if they had been written about any other race but the Negro. In their effort to make the Negro square with their rooted preconceptions they defy human nature; they produce freaks which are not consistent even in their freakishness. With their loud talk about knowing the Negro one would expect them to write the best stories about him; but along comes a Frenchman and writes rings around them.
"Black Magic" is the best set of stories written by a white man about Negroes. Paul Morand is a Frenchman and a traveler, two things which make for open-mindedness. It is unhampered by the taboos and conventions which are plaguing at the mind of the American Negroes for the great American audience. He falls short of the moral height of Seabrook, who in "The Magic Island" shook off both prejudice and preconception. Morand is unprejudiced but not free of preconception. For three reasons Morand sometimes goes wrong. First, for all his lack of prejudice he is a white man whose life is therefore prone to generalize. Secondly, his stories are mostly rootless fantasies—literary orchids

BLACK MAGIC
when we turn to the North, the Negro shows up as five or six times as criminal as his white fellow citizen, and two or three times as criminal as his Southern black brother.
The Negro newspaper convicts the race of criminal propensity in the eyes of its readers, white or black. If we peruse our leading weeklies, we find their front pages covered over with scandal, sensation and crime. Fifty-two editions a year tell the same sordid story, a tale of infidelity, bootlegging and debauchery first eye. The Negro's education, religion and culture seem to have little relation to this propensity to evil deeds, if we are to believe the portrayal of Negro newspapers.
The preacher debauches his chair leader; the doctor prescribes illegal liquor; the school teacher riots in domestic scandal; the intelligence revel in portraying it all, without shame or reproof. The education which you youth now receiving is to their moral life. Our churches are boating of their swollen statistics of membership and finance, but these things bear no traceable relation to the moral life of the people. If crime and lax moral ideas are threatening the perpetuity of the American people, as Mr. Hoover seriously asserts, how much more endured by undermining moral decay. Full knowledge and acknowledgment of the facts are essential to any effective remedy. The crime of bootlegging is a case in point. The Negro is perhaps the most active of all small scale bootleggers.

His formula is atavism.

He has another story about a Negro from Haiti, makes himself an American from commits so many outrages that the Americans have to return. He writes of a Negro dancer who has Paris at her feet and throws it away because of a voodoo charm. He has a rich Negro woman, passions in Africa and joyfully goes native.

confined to the slums and shady places. The Negro intelligence evince no great reverence for prohibition or the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment.
Negro ministers, as a general thing, do not preach it from their pulpits; Negro newspapers do not hinder against it in their editorial work; and organizations rarely ever pass resolutions calling on the people to uphold the principle of temperance and laws to abolish the liquor evil. Our refined social circles laugh at it. Such are some of the plain facts of observation which anyone can verify by his own experience and observation.
Negro race should first of all be compelled by the enforcement of law and order. He is at once the chief beneficiary of law and the chief victim of lawlessness.
I believe that the first suggestion as to the appointment of a Negro on Mr. Hoover's Law Enforcement Commission appeared in one of these weekly releases. My thought was then, and is now, that the Negro, of all Americans, is or should be chiefly concerned in any measure of the moral and order. Although we have not perfected a moral pedagogy, still our schools should stress above all the moral conduct. Our preachers should thunder from their pulpits that righteousness exalteth and that sin is a reproach unto any people. Our newspapers should stress obedience to the Constitution and the laws. These things are essential to the salvation of the race. Surely, then, if Mr. Hoover can tell the American people that the law obeyed the law or perish without the obeying it, then he must guide the life and destiny of the Negro should keep before him, ever and anon, the consciousness that the path of sin is the way to death.

of a distant people upon the const of Svrtes, thousands of years ago.
Ancient civilization appears more austere and rougher in the East than in the West. All the art forms of the Oriental regions are stamped, with a severity and a rigidity which also appeared in Egyptian civilization. Indeed, Egypt, even in the height of its artistic period and supreme grace of dewerness and supreme grace of had a certain hardness of line.
With regard to the compact and vigorous forms of Negro art, Oceanic sculpture has less plastic decorative richness, and decorative richness. The legs of the tootles, the faces of the ancestors, the demons, the weapons, the war boats, all have more movement than those among the blacks in Oceanic art is eminently decorative. All the figures, sculptured or painted, have unity, as in African art, but present the distinctiveness
The civilized exoticism of yellow Asia no longer suffices for our over-aesthetic period. We need more mingling savages. We need cultural realities. Now has arrived the vogue of the people of darker color: Black Africa, Red America and Brown Oceania.
From the artistic mystery of these natural collections, which impose themselves upon us with such force, the science of art will at least learn one grave and opportunity lesson. This lesson, that has too much to be accepted as us accept now, even if it comes from savages. Their constructive and ornamental forms, so sincere in their worn aspect, have that elementary logic, that organic rhythm of the classic styles of the great epochs.
or African things will revert to the savagery of his remote ancestors. His argument is that blood will tell.
But what about that woman who went native in Africa because of two or three indiscernible drops of Negro blood? What were her nineteen-twentieths of white blood doing all the while? If a woman is one part Negro, two English, two French, three German and four God-know-what, are we to believe that that one Negro part is stronger than all the others together? Ask any woman, the Negro or part Negro, to choose one from among America with three million dollars living in Africa as a naked savage. If you can't foresee her answer you are a fool.
Atavism is a good theme but it is easily overdone. Take an ignorant Negro into a museum filled with African things and, provided he knows no better, tell him that they are relics of the ancient Danes and Vikings. Will he have any instinctive feeling for them? Will they of themselves betray the lie and bring back memories five centuries old. How can a man remember what saw before? Eugene O'Neill, in "Emperor Jones," makes the same nonanesthetic mistake.
Take Josephine Baker, who is evidently the original of the dancer in Morand's story. Suppose she, in the midst of her popular triumphs and personal conquests, came home to her sumptuous boudoir and found that somebody had stuck a little black object under her pillow. Would she dash out of the house, a terror, leaving her distressed and run over Paris looking for her doctor? No. Indeed. She would call her maid and say: "Who put that masty, dirty black things in my

The drug of choice in these cases may be castor oil, or some other drastic cathartic. It is because of this dangerous practice that this article is primarily written.
The causes of acute bellyache are numerous, and it is with a great deal of deliberation and caution that a physician offers a diagnosis in a given case. Among some of the conditions which will manifest as bellyache the body may be mentioned: acute ingestion, gas, intestinal colic, appendicitis, diseases of the gall bladder, ulcers of the stomach, adhesions from previous operations or inflammation, stones in the kidney tract, obstruction of the bowels; and, in women, disease of the womb, tubes and ovaries.

In spite of the fact that we today know much more about appendicitis than was formerly known, the cases which go to operation after rupture, as the result of the conditions which will manifest as bellyache, the body may be mentioned: acute ingestion, gas, intestinal colic, appendicitis, diseases of the gall bladder, ulcers of the stomach, adhesions from previous operations or inflammation, stones in the kidney tract, obstruction of the bowels; and, in women, disease of the womb, tubes and ovaries. The characteristic symptoms run true to form, hence the diagnosis of the case is often difficult and may require a period of close observation.
Vomiting, fever, character of pain and its location, the tone of the muscles in the belly wall are all very important factors, together with an intelligent history from the patient. Children suffer a great deal from abdominal pain, which is often the result of improper food, or the pain may be associated with colds and the infectious diseases of childhood. It is generally agreed among medical men that the diagnosis in these cases is of prime importance. The family and well-meaning neighbors in their haste to

Diseases of the Pulp
(PULP STONES.)
T HAS been said that correct diagnosis is half the treatment of any disease. This is especially true in the case of pulp stones. The supreme efforts of the dentist as a diagnostician are brought forth in dealing with this condition.
Pulp stones is another chronic disease of the pulp, occurring in the teeth of adult pulp after infection. it is caused by a mild irritation of the pulp insufficient to cause an acute inflammation. This disease may be caused by any one or more of the following conditions: large amalgam fillings extending too close to the pulp; erosions and abrasions at the gum line, often caused by incorrect tooth brushing; a blow or a shock

Paul Morand's theories may seem plausible to some, but Har-
seem pauisole to some, but Harlem is a long, long way from Africa. One of Morand's stories deserts the clouds of fantasy and gets down to the sounds too real for fiction. It is the story of a Southern white woman who all her life has suppressed a hankering for Negroes. Finally, gray-hair- and in Paris, she yields to it and starts running after them. Some Americans catch her with a Negro and fill him with bullets for "attacking" a white woman. A whimsical story is that of a colored family who move to a seaside resort and pass for white. They are found out and attempts are made to dislodge them. They move away. The head of a colored family buys up the depreciated property, sells it to colored people and makes $2,000,000.
Whether Morand's stories are logical or not, they are free of the hugger-mugger hypocrisy that stultifies the stories of white Ameri-
can writers. Morand's stories are told in a superb style that shows even through the translation. Even the ones with which most fault may be found, the stories of atavism, are distinguished pieces of literature. In all of them Morand is a writer, a metaphor, a metaphor and iridescent imagery.

The drug of choice in or some other drastic cathartic us practice that this article is to give relief often do more harm than good. In spite of the fact that we today know much more about appendicitis than was formalized, the cases which go to operation after rupture, as the result of the administration of some purge, are still too numprous.
The giving of a purgative to an individual suffering from acute abdominal pain is a very risky procedure. First, call your physician to determine the trouble, and if some remedy is not available, an enema of soap or blebateon of soda is much easier than anything by mouth. The use of the fece bag or the application of heat has a place, once the cause of the trouble is determined. The fact that these remedies do not give immediate relief is a poor reason for their immediate removal. You are advised to go to a hospital for observation, go. The question as to whether an operation is necessary will be determined by more than one or two opinions. Many a life has been lost as a result of the stubborn desire of both patient and relatives to hold off an operation until it is too late.

causing an inflammation of the membrane covering the root; slow decay.
The pulp stones themselves are deposits of irregular modulated masses scattered throughout the pulp tissue. They may be seen in the X-ray by the well-trained eye.
Pain from this disease is of a dull gnawing, continuous type, not definitely located. The pain is often reflected to an adoloping or even to distant tooth, making its diagnosis more difficult. Still further, acute trifacial neuralgia may be caused by pulp stones. Dental disease causing pain of this type is nearly always responsible for the dentist extracting the wrong tooth, and not the dentist himself.
Treatment for this condition is removal of the pulp when other conditions warrant it. A frequent dentist complaint is for the dentist to arrest many these conditions before they have vanced too far.

The Showman
THERE he goes a-struttin'
Up and down the avenue.
With his hair all slick and shinny.
And a suit of freakish hue.
His walk is stiff and strained,
And his cane goes round and round.
But his smile is far from feigned.
For joys in his heart abound.
All the women's eyes are on him.
And he knows it too darned well.
It gives his frame an added tic
To hear a dame say: "Ain't he swell?
Then his cane goes swingin' faster
And he smiles from car to car
As he gaily ambles past her
With his head up in the air.
For he's just a superb showman
Who delights in being seen
He doesn't care for any women
To claim him as her man.
