Organize In Effort To Help Cardinal Gibbons Industrial School
Auxiliaries In Charles Prince George's, and St. Mary's Name Leaders
EACH QUOTA IS $2,000
Whole Church Is Behind Movement To Aid Industrial School.
County auxiliaries of the Cardinal Gibbons Institute, a colored industrial school, have been organized among the Catholics of three Maryland counties, St. Mary's, Charles' and Prince Georges. These organizations have been formed to raise funds for the Institute. They are composed of the presidents and secretaries of the various colored societies and the Catholic societies. Each auxiliary is working through these societies to reach the people and secure donations and pledges for the school. A thorough curriculum is being developed to secure these donations. In addition, each auxiliary will hold, or encourage various groups to hold, entertainments for the school, and to secure these donations. In addition, each auxiliary has seen out to collect more in proportion to its population in the others. Each has set a minimum sum to be collected, and Mary's expects to see this.

As some one has said, the South the Negro as an individual but detests him as a race, the North likes, him as a race but detests him as an idia. It is true that Negroes find readier employment in South, but this is due to necessity and color pride, not to altruism. As you know, certain occupations are deferred below the dignity of white men in the South. Stannard Baker tells of an instance where the chief ment used against the rapacity of the mob was that it cotton-picking time and that it was frightening the lies away, leaving the job to be done by white men. Better opportunity for employment, in my opinion, is galanced by the greater freedom to develop initiative independence, and thus be self-respecting. Th Northview helps to do this for the black man, thus making a greater asset to the nation. In the South, on the hand, everything that can be done is done to humble and keep his spirit down.

But the situation becomes tragic when it results in gross injustices like these: A white man taken in by a Negro brother is set free, but the man is taken in by a white brother is sentenced to death, his sentence being committed to life imprisonment. A Negro, Holinshed, kills his wife and her white lover takes fragrant deltoe. He is acquitted for the death of his lover to death for killing the lover. Voltaire spoke wisely when he said: "Pretjudice is the reason of food"; it is possible that many of these persons are slaves, but they are acquitted for the death of them." Wherein they did their work from those unprivilorious Africans who shummed a white skin? Dixon had warmed up to his subject. He had more than enough food had intended. He took up his book again. As he opened it the senator asked with ill-concealed sarcastus: "Am I to infer that you are in favor of social equality?" He asked Dixon with these dessertives.
"But," married the other, puzzled but modified, "how is it possible for Negroes to stay at the same hotels and live in the same apartments as the white people and not have social equality? What are the races to have the same identified rights without social equality."
"Haven't white men equal rights, and yet not social equality?"
"You are always going off at a tangent," said the other privately.
"You clearly want you in favor of social equality." Yes or no.
"No, as I said before."
"Why?"
"I always want the option of choosing my own company."
"It is so obvious that people will seek those whom they like and shun those they dislike that I have no other alternative than to conclude that when you speak of social equality you must speak of equality. My association would work both ways: newwelcome whites would force themselves upon Negroes who didn't want them for instance, equality, social or otherwise, has never made it probably will not aid, but even among members of a fraternity." What you are to critical anyway," said the other sharply, "what I mean is this: Do you not believe that Negroes should meet white people in a social way—call them—pray their social visits in their homes?" But races have been doing that for the last three centuries, haven't they? But like Nicodemus—by night.

"Very well! Do you think that Negroes should be permitted to attend white dances and dinner-parties?" such persons are friendly enough for that, why certainly Alley meet in Europe among the white race. Each of the peoples in question can learn something enticing, nothing influences have no color. When a Caucasian reads Terence, Asson, Dumas, Puskin, DuBois and Ellis; admires Tanner's paintings; considers Cerridge Taylor or Burleigh, he associates with what for a better manne we will call Negro thought. If association with their works is not with the authors themselves. "But from the vast mass of Negroes the Anglo-Saxon has absolutely nothing to learn and if we let down the bars to a few well white men it down to the whole black wood."
"When you," retorted Dixon with considerable spirit, "merely permit a citizen to enjoy his God-given rights does it mean that you have to bring him to your home against your will, and his" "must be a white man make social calls uninvited," a Negro, would not for a moment think of intruding even in another Negro's home. This whole matter of social equality revolves on the question: Should a certain group in this nation be permitted to regulate the intimacy of affairs of their neighbors, picking acquaintances for them and so on?
He continued still more correctly: "But here is another and yet more of associated social equality—the human side. The great-hearted man refuses to imprison his son behind bars of color, his son behind bars of color, he sees another human being fundamentally the same as himself. Despite all barriers, he enjoys meeting kindred souls, for his dignity is in simplicity, sincerity and sympathy. As it is in the province of even a lower convict to be ex-hive there is really nothing distinguished about him."

To Keep You Guessing
Why is spring a dangerous season? The trees are shooting, the flowers have pistils.

Solution to Last Week's Puzzle
The farm band arranged the twenty-one chickens inside the four coops as shown above. He called attention to the fact the outermost coop had all the inner coops, and thus held all the odd number. The second coop included within its bounds the third and the fourth, so it held thirteen, an odd number. The third coop included the smallest coop and thus the odd number with the innermost coop being the odd number five.

Pleasing Winter Plant
A vase or bowl of water in which have been placed slips of Tradescantia in either one, two, three varieties, or trailing foliage, makes the most beautiful houseplant that has been able to find.
The Tradescantia, or Wandering Jew, as it is more commonly called, may be had in plain green, green and white, or silver and maroon colors, and when placed with the stems in water it soon roots and grows. Only a few small flowers added, or even one blossom, gives variety and makes an attractive decoration. With a large these bowls, or vases, will be nice all winter months.
The trailing Cobus, which may be had in either the red or the yellow variety, may be used with the Tradescantia, or the Cobus may be used alone in either or both varieties, as it roots as readily in water as the Wandering Jew and the bright colored foliage makes charming plants or bouquets. These are pleasing gifts for shut-ins.
Games for Younger Children
"SNATCH THE HANDKER-CHIEF."
Players stand in two straight lines, facing each other. Each child has a number.
One team begins to number from one end of the line, and the other team begins at the other end. The teacher calls a number, for example, "No 7"; then each of the two "No. 7" players tries to snatch the handkerchief from the Indian Club without noticing it and get back to his own side without being targeted by another "no. 7." (The teacher keeps the score).
NOTE: It is well to have the boys and girls on opposite sides. It is a splendid game to develop both skill and alertness.

Ways To Keep Well
Ways To Keep Well
C. N. P. S. Q—What causes a person to have difficulty in breathing?
A—This may be due to indigestion, heart condition or overweight. The cause should be located and removed.
F. E. M. C. Q—Will you please tell me what causes cracking in the knees?
2. How are peroxide and lemon juice mixed for use as a bleach?
A—This condition is due to the drying up of the synovial fluid. Massage with cod liver oil is very helpful for this.
B. Mix equal parts of peroxide and lemon juice, apply to the skin and allow to dry. This makes a very good skin bleach.
T. F. Q—What can I do for poison ivy?
A—The best local remedy for this is grindlede robust, the fluid extract, 4 part to 6 parts of water. Apply with gauze or a cloth. Cream is sometimes added to advantage. Buttermilk and crude petroleum are remedies sometimes recommended. A solution of hypo-possible of soda, 1 tablespoonful to 1 ounce of water will relieve the itching.
M. M. B. Q—1 am a girl 16 years old and am 5 feet 1 inch tall. Will you please tell me how I can increase my height and what my correct weight should be?
2.5 how can I overcome round shoulders?
A—You will undoubtedly grow for several years yet. However, stretching muscles, such as touching the knee with the fingers, will help you. For your age and height you should weigh about 111 pounds.
2. Exercises will also help to overcome this trouble. If possible, join an athletic club or Y. W. C. A. and have a physical instructor outline a course of exercise for you.
' Z. A. E. Q—The veins on my hands are very prominent. Is there anything I can do to correct this?
A—This is a natural condition in some people. Therefore little can be done to correct.
P. K. Q—I am constantly troubled with dreams and I don't rest properly. What causes this and what should you advise me to do?
A—Intestinal disturbance is the usual cause of this trouble. You should eat a light evening meal and take no food after it. Do not read for at least an hour before retiring. Make sure that your sleeping room is well ventilated.

I boarded a No. four car going
West and seated myself beside a
motherly looking woman who held
a large bundle covered with newspaper in her lap. She spoke,
responded. In a few moments, we were engaged in conversation. Finally, she called my attention to someone on paper, which was a No.40 American.
"See this love letter signed Gertrude Wayland?" she demanded.
"Yes!" I murmured.
"I don't see why it should win a prize. My daughter sent in a letter at the same time, and didn't get anything," was the retort.
"Perhaps the editor thought this one better?" I suggested. She glanced at me slightly. You don't understand such people, so let "This person is some friend of the office staff."
To add to my discomfort, a friend bourded the car and came toward me. "Why, Gertrude Wayland!" my friend exclaimed with a smile, "where have you been keeping yourself lately?" Murmuring some faint words of greeting I arose hastily and went to the front of the car. In a moment more I had alighted.
The car was passing. As I sheepishly looked up at the car window, I noticed the hindly eyes of the mother had dropped my eyes quickly. I was four squares from my destination, so I walked on. Ask yourself the question, Was I embarrassed? Respectfully submitted by, GERTREUDE WAYLAND, 416 Mott Street.

The Second Period
In the second period Lincoln started down the field as if determined to make a touchdown. Burrell was playing Jason hard, and the latter's bad pass from centre got thru Goodman's hands. Luck was with Goodman, instead of being thrown for a loss, he picked up the bounding pigskin and hit 45 yard line before he was stopped. St. Paul's line was like a stone wall and Grudup dropped back to try another placement goal. This time it was blocked and a St. Paul player recovered it. He here. There it was completed. Its only pass and it carried the ball to Lincoln's 20 yard line. Williams used bad judgment here by calling for a forward pass instead of a placekick as the half ended.
St. Paul Scored in 3rd Period
St. Paul's field goal came as the result of a 35 yard penalty and a beautiful kick by Walker from this point. It was a walk to the moment, but Walker advantage of it where he had failed before. Both teams played a kicking game as this 3rd period started. Going down the field under a point, Hogan, Lincoln right tackle, was caught slugging by Umpire Sellers. Hogan was banished and St. Paul was given the ball on Lincoln's 35 yard mark. The critical moment and Walker booted the placement and Williams holding the ball.
Morgan Rushed In
From the side lines, Costin was cushed in at tackle for Lincoln. Morgan went in at centre. Whirlwind Johnson wanted to play but was too badly hurt in the Hampton game last week in Baltimore. Byrd succeeded Butts Taylor at quarter, but in the rest of the game Lincoln could not be held against the whole Pauline. Pauline played a stellar game, sitting thru and getting Linein backs before he could start.
Each team gained six first downs by rushing the ball. Lincoln completed two out of 17 passes attempted. St. Paul 1 out of 8. Lincoln fumbled four times and St. Paul three times. Lincoln was penalized once for 35 yards. Lincoln scored 10 points for 40 yards. Maddux was put out of the game after the first three plays with a fractured elbow.

Baleigh, N. C, Nov. 8- Hampton
Institute's versatile eleven won its
fifth consecutive victory today and
moved a step nearer the coveted intercollegiate championship, when they defeated Shaw, 6-0.
The team quartered the "Seniorist" had worked the ball down in Shaw's 4-yard line on line plays by Williams and Hardwick.
SCORE IN SECOND QUARTER
In the second quarter Hampton lost the ball, when tucked, and thereby lost her chance to score. Both teams then engaged in a putting duel, until Hampton received the ball on her 45-yard line. Through the brilliant plunging of Williams and a perfectly executed pass from Gum to Jacobs which netted 21 yards, Hampton was put in a position to score. She did. Williams carried the ball over on a line-plunge from the 5-yard line, the hitpoint failed to score at the point. The half ended with Hampton fighting for another touchdown in possession of the pigskin on Shaw's 17-yard line.
PUNTING DUEL
In the last half the battle settled in a pungent duel, except in the last quarter, when Hampton, through a pass from Hargrove to Pindle and more superb line-pushes, got the ball within Shaw's 5-yard line. Shaw braced and Hampton was unable to advance. Shaw resorted to pass in the third quarter and completed a pass to Mitchell. This brought the Shaw routers to their feet. Neither team was penalized during the game.

Happy Friendly Co.
I saw St. Paul tie Lincoln Saturday in the best game of the season. I saw a school which has only a hundred or so scholars come up to Oxford with a team which is the peer of any in the big colleges.
"Whirlwind" Johnson, Lincoln's captain and plunging halfback did not whirl, instead he sat sad-eyed on the sidelines and watched the Southern boys shove back the Lincoln horde. "Jazz" Byrd, Lincoln's speedy quarterback, might just as well have been on the sidelines too, Coach Young held him out until the second half, but outside the kick-off when Byrd got loose for a 40 yard run, his wings were clipped.
Walker, St. Paul back, who kicked a field goal from the 35 yard line, will go down in Virginia history as a greater man than Robert E. Lee or Frederick Douglass; Crudun for Lincoln, kicked one also from the 30 yard mark. Both were beauties. St. Paul's shift had Lincoln puzzled. It also had Referee Gibson puzzled, and by the time he got thru penalizing St. Paul six times for starting it so fast, the Southerners slowed up and stopped making so many gains. St. Paul's line on the defense is the best in the country, bar none.
Dr. Al Reid, Dr. Barnie Rhetta and Dr. Bill Walker, of Baltimore, were on the St. Paul side, and each wore an overcoat a little longer than the other. By the way Jack Dempsey is still dodging Harry Wills.
MOREHOUSE DEFEATS HAMPTON READY FOR MORRIS BROWN. 6-0 ITS BIG GAME

is Brown. In the third period Morehouse played Morris Brown off her feet Jordan kicked to Morris Brown's six-yard line. The receiver could not advance the ball and the team was forced to kick. The kicker being rushed by Morehouse forwards only kicked ten yards. Clark returned it to the six-yard line. Here Morris Brown showed its powerful defense holding Morehouse for downs. Morris Brown kicked out again. This time the ball was returned to the four-yard line. Again Morris Brown held Morehouse for downs. The Morehouse team displayed a back drive for the want of a backterback Joach Harvey for Capt. Kelly who played in the game suffering a bruised knee and charlie horse. Morris Brown kicked from behind her goal line to the 23-yard line. It was returned by Kelly to the 14-yard line. Star added 13 yards on end run, placing the ball on Morris Brown's 1-yard line. Jordan carried the ball across.

Hampton, Va., Nov. 15.—For the first time a big social affair has been planned by the Hampton Institute Athletic Association for the Howard and Hampton football teams and for the visitors who are expected from many sections of the country for the Howard-Hampton game on November 17. The management of Bay Shore Hotel has placed at the disposal of the association its spacious pavilion, dining-halls, and parlor which will enable the association to give a fitting reception to visitors. Since the defeat of Lincoln by Hampton in Baltimore by a score of 7-3, in one of the greatest contests ever staged by the two elephants, the Howard-Hampton game promises to be the big classic of the year.
Already hundreds of people in Washington, Baltimore, Richmond, Philadelphia, and New York are planning to be present to witness this great classic. Neither Hampton nor Howard teams have been defeated thus far this season, and for that reason thousands of enthusiastic fans in the country are anxious to witness the contest between these two eleven.

Best Defensive Quarter-
back Seen Here This Year
Douglas High School swamped like Wright's Cambridge High School football team Friday at Black Sdx baseball park, 32 to 0. The local boys have been meeting such hard teams in the past years that the beginning of the game with Cambridge they hardly new how to play against a weaker team. The result was, not a single touchdown was made in the first period. In the second period Russell tore off several long runs through Cambridge line for the first time. Before the end of the half he ducked the trick, and the score was 12 to 0.
In the second period Harmon grabbed a forward pass and ran 40 yards for a touchdown, besides kicking the goal. Williams, who entered the garage about this time in place of Russell, was a shining star. Cambridge tacklers found them the most elusive things they have had in their hands this year, when two more touchdowns before darkness and the timekeeper's whistle entered the contest. Full Buck LeCount, of Cambridge, out kicked Harmon, of Douglass Hi. The big Cambridge fullback sent his punts all over the heads of the Douglass Hi backfield men. Had Cambridge ends been sure, sure. Cornish, of Cambridge, was one of the best defensive quarterbacks seen here this year. On two occasions he alone stood between Douglass Hi runners and a touchdown. Both times he spilled his man, once having to knock down the interference, in order to get him.

This Year
Washington, D. C., Nov. 15.—The
Howard eleven punished the Virginia,
Normal and Northern Institute of
Postal Virginia. Saturday afternoon,
November 10th, in the Ameri-
can League Park, by a score of 19
to 7. With a number of substitutes
playing for the "Blue and White
eleven, in the Southern Institute to
lose," the Virginia against a lone touchdown
for themselves.
In the first quarter the ball was in Howard's territory most of the time, because Coles, the Petersburg quarterback, toe far out-distance Doleson, Howard's left-back, Donehy's left-back, Howard's left-back, D. Brown, the visitors' stocky full-back, got through Howard's line and dashed 25 yards before Blackman, who was the only man left between the runner and Howard's goal line, caught around the legs in a pretty tackle, the ball to Howard's 28-yard line.
As the second quarter started, Long knocked down a forward pass. Coles attempted a drop-kick on the next down. But before he could get it off, "Bulldog" Williams blocked the kick, recovered 70 yards down the goal field for a touchdown. A forward pass failed and the extra point was lost.
THE SECOND SCORE
Having tasted first blood, the "Bison's" machine really got going now. Coles kicked off to Howard's 20-yard line. From here the "Capital Boys" brought the ball down the field to Petersburg's 3-yard line in six successive first downs. Peyton and Dodson carrying the ball around end gaints off from 4 to 10 yards. The visitors' line hold in front of their own goal, and on the fourth down, Blackman resorted to a forward pass to the right. A Petersburg man uncked Long, Howard's right-end, before he had caught the ball; and the Virginia boys once opened the ball. Petersburg charged through right tackles for the touchdown. Again the extra point was lost on an incomplete pass. RUNS 75 YARDS.
Then Petersburg opened up. Baker kicked off and Peyton brought the ball back 15 yards. Dodson was forced to kick on fourth down, the

ball going to Howard's 48-yard line. Then Coles and Epps tore off to a first down in three plays. But they fumbled on Howard's ball 10 yards in two off-tackle plays. Then Blackmon attempted in lateral pass to Dodson, but the ball went over Dodson, but the ball was recovered by Ross on Howard's 25-yard line. On the next play, Epps sneaked way out on the right side of the line, sprinted down the field as the ball was snapped, received a perfect forward pass from Coles and went over it. The touchdown has been scored Howard this season. Coles drikked the extra point.
Soon after the third quarter had startle Doneghy, the "Bisons" star captain, was sent in amidst a rear from t. rgehamd cimbhdwy up from the grand-stand to take Doneghy's place. Hardly had he gotten into the game when he recovered a Petersburg fumble. Peyton and Doneghy failed to make first down yardage and Doneghy kicked the visitors' 8-yard line, returning the ball around left-end had been speared. Doneghy tore thru off tackle for first down as the period ended.
At the beginning of the last quarter, Petersburg caught Howard napping with a pass, Turner to Baker. Baker caught he ball neatly and split out down the field with not a man in front to stop him, the quarterback having him, and somehow disentangled himself from the line of seriimage, overtook the runner from the rear, grabbed on to the back of his belt and dragged him to the ground after the man had covered 50 yards. Petersburg fumbled at this moment and long, and the ball for Howard had their own 32-yard hit. Doneghy got going true to form. On the first play he raced ground right end and tore down the field 50 yards, on the next play he netted 10 more, and so on down the field with first down after first down until the ball was on the Wing 6-inch line. Blanketed the field with the batter for the touchdown. The extra point was awarded Howard on Petersburg's penalty.

HOWARD PRESS AGENT ACCUSED OF BIAS
HOWARD PRESS AGENT ACCUSED OF BIAS
Washington, D. C., Nov. 15—The Howard University press agent has drawn considerable adverse criticism because of the bias releases he has sent out to newspapers on the football games played by the Howard eleven this year. His stories on the Howard-Morehouse and Howard Winderforce games especially are the centerpiece. In both of these games, the "Blue and White" machine triumphed; but the contexts were by no means one-sided, although the reports were. They were bitter struggles in which thirteen honors were at least evenly distributed.
Morehouse lost by the score of 10 to 9. Wilberforce succeeded to the Howard eleven by the score of 7 to 9. But in neither of these contests was the victory due to any great affliction playing on the Howard side. "Blue and white" Morehouse lost their erratic playing. After thrilling the crowd by the brilliance of their attack, Harvey's boys would suddenly fumble or kick sidewise. In inconsistent playing proved costly. A poor punt put Howard with a gin line, and they gained a touchdown on the third down.
"Tough luck"—that unknown quantity which causes the dope to be upset and the breaks of the game to go the wrong way—accounts for the Wilberforce victory, and again gains for the fun of it. They shifted the Howard ends repeatedly. They had an arterial attack that was hard to be broken up. And they yielded to the "Blue and White" eleven in the second half only after Howard had begun—in the words of the Howard. "Pushing green and man after another out of the game."
But in the reports of these games as broadcast by the Howard University press agent, the "Blue and White" eleven about the "Bull Dog" football and others of the Howard team were the only scintillating stars deserving of praise. The players on Harvey's and on Jefferson's respective teams were not worthy of honorable mention. Such are the ways of a press agent. It is not that the criticism evoked is not directed at the Howard eleven. There is no doubt that Coach Watson has built a great defensive machine. And the dope strongly points to it going through the season undefeated. From comparative scores Howard should in over Hampton have been the only loss on Thanksgiving day by two touchdowns.
"Thus far this season, "Dime Luck" is favoring the "blue and White" machine. University is the only thing to mar the season in any wise.
HUBBARD TO PLAY
WITH COMMONWEALTH
(Preston News Service).
New York, Nov. 15.—Creed Hubbard, star basketball player of Chicago, is reported to have signed up with the famous Commonwealth Five of this city.
BY JIMMY DE FOREST
New York, Nov. 15.—Considering fakes, there rises a figure that is pathetic—a perfectly made man physically for his game, a man of paramount skill and a brave heart driven to study ring practices by the color of his skin and the curidity of Al Herford, Baltimore gambler, who for a long time absolutely controlled him. I mean Jaws.
Joe's good name. Joe's rightful place in pugilism, meant nothing to Herford. Every topnotchighter in the lightweight class knew that Gans was his master except little Terry McGovern, who didn't believe he was the ring with the so-called best of them. Herford would have to agree to make Joe lose—on a tour or some way or another. And Gans could always support backing because down deep the public knew how good he was. And his manager would always be betting the other way—or pretty nearly always!
**Gans Turns Over New Leaf.**
Finally Gans, honest in heart, sickened of the part of faker. He came out with a clean breast of all the fakes he had been forced to engage in and, matched with

WILLS IS WARNED
WILLS IS WARNED
New York. Nov. 15.—Leading sport wives here are warning Wills to refrain from using the rabbit punch from which the crowd booed him in his recent fight. One of them says: Harry Wills is guilty of an unnecessary habit in his boxing that sooner or later is going to get him into trouble with referees and the boxing commissions as well. In attack he freestyle takes both of his opponent by the neck with his left, draws him closer and lets fly with his right hand at any spot that presents itself. Wills doesn't have to resort to that trick, and trick it is. It is manifestly unfair and there isn't any question that eventually it will lead to his disqualification. He should curb the antic and not leave himself open to the victim or penalty by a referee who might order him his former when he is winning an important fight—from even the champion himself.
Wills Most Popular
The voting contest conducted by THE BOXING BLADE, the popular weekly, ended on October 20th after running fourteen weeks.
During the contest, more than a million votes were received from all over the world, and as was to be expected, the heavyweight class proved the most popular. In this class Harry Wills received 43,700 votes as the most desirable opponent for Dempsey as against 25,700 cast for Tommy Gibbons, and 22,000 for Luis Angel Firpo.
ATHENIANS TO OPEN
On Thursday of this week, the Athensians journey to Harrisburg to the strong Scholastics of the "pace." This will be the initial game sort, the locals, and will be watched with interest. Although early in the season, some light men played on the feature performers, the "Orange and Purple Juggernauts." With but few of last season's men back, speculation is rife at what success will be met with.
Malone Wins Over Gans
St. Paul, Nov. 10.—Jack Malone, white, of St. Paul, outpointed Panama Joe Gaus, middleweight, in their ten-round bout last night, according to the press at the arena. Malone won the better of the contest in seven rounds. Both weighted in under the limit.
Wills, Ruth's Rival
(Preston News Service.)
Chicago, Ill., Nov. 15.—Scientists dealing with the powers of athletes last week took up a discussion of Ruth's lifting power and the power of Wilk's wallop. It will would connect with one of Walter Johnson's curves, according to scientists, the blow would terminate in a mighty home run, greater, even, than the distance registered by Ruth's homers.
ILAME
R GANS' "FAKE" FIGHT
Battling Nelson, then "white champion" lightweight of the world, he pitched the champion forty-five pounds, blinded him and was deceived the winner when Nelson in desperation deliberately fouled Gans.
It had it the Gans of his premier days who figured in that fight he would have come pretty near to tearing Nelson's head off his shoulders. But the Gans of that great fight was a fading Gans. He already had been touched by tuberculosis. Additionally, Billy Nolan, shrewdest and tricked of managers, played the sharpest of tricks on Gans to further handicap Nolan didn't believe Gans could come down to 123 pounds, as stipulated, and still be strong. But as the time of battle grew near and Nolan learned that Gans was making the weight and would enter the ring in fine fettle at that figure, he suddenly declared that the rules called for Gans making 123 pounds and no more in his full ring—accountment of socks, shoes, trunks and gloves. He forced me to make the full ring regalia in 2 eclocks and again at the moment for entering the ring.
In other words, he forced Gans to sweat off a pound and a half of flesh before 2 o'clock on the day of the fight and to keep it sweated off until the instant he entered the ring. Gans fought Nelson, who sweated off in seventeen rounds in the first battle and in the twenty-first of the next. But the Gans who faced Nelson then was only the shadow of the real Gans. He was not the real Gans, but the midst of a battle with a deadlier, foe—consumption.
End Of "Big" Three In College Football Is Now In Sight
* * * *
Time was when all the football in colored colleges was played by Howard, Lincoln and Hampton but "them days is gone forever."
From Archbishop Russell's school at Lawrenceville, Virginia there went forth Saturday a football squad of 22 men to Lincoln and taught the Lions how to play the game. To be sure the game ended in a tie, but the moral victory goes to the Episcopalians. The only satisfaction that Lincoln gets out of the game is the fact that Winston Douglass, St. Paul's coach is a former Lincoln star.
A. H. Turner, business manager of St. Paul passed thru the city Monday. He declared that his boss confidently expected to be called up day and when he called went to the dressing room crying like "Part of the blame for this failure to win is placed on preference Duck Gibson who called six off-side penalties on St. Paul. He claimed the Virginians, in carrying out their famous shift, were moving while the ball was moving. The result was that Virginia offered him slowed down and at four big gains thru Lincoln line in critical moments were lost. Mr. Turner points out that this

Philia, Pa. Nov. 8.—Before Charles White, the—colored member on the Pennsylvania Boxing Board, and 4,000 fight fans, Wilbur Cohen, the New York flash, defeated Joe Williams of this city in the windup of eight rounds at the National A.C. Cohen's second appearance in this city was received by a good greeting from the crowd. Through his training, evenness and the way he picked off Williams' blows were the feature. Williams fought a good running fight. That is, he was pursued by Cohen every minute of the time he was in the ring. Cohen stepped in and out, ducked, then he would hit Williams and get away unharmed. Young Frisco stopped Dick Williams of this city before he got too far. Ed Covington stopped Young Sailor Darden before the latter could get himself together.

is the first time this year that St. Paul has been penalized like this and in the game with Hampton used the shift with Dr. Morrison as referee without incurring penalties. Mr. Turner, who has been penalized, was also clated over the fact that his boys made good at the first place kick they ever attempted in a football game.
Howard and Hampton are still undefeated so far. Howard took Virginia Normal into Camp last Saturday 19-7 using substitutes in the first half. Hampton also threw in a shot to the opposing team. Saturday 6-0. Far will fly when Hampton meets Howard at home Saturday.

Havana, Cuba, Nov. 15—John Henry Lloyd, captain of Havana, is playing first base and getting his daily hits where they count the most.

Other familiar names on Havana are Luque of Cincinnati, Mack Eggleston, Chacar, Portuondo and Jiminez. Ere this writing has met the anxious eyes of the sport loving public "Red Ryan and "Nip" Winters will have been added to the roster.

New York, Nov. 15.—Battling Siki, Senegalese fighter from France, will not fight anybody before he meets Kid Nortolk here next Tuesday at Madison Square Garden.
He made this clear in Washington Heights court last week where he had Lieutenant Sawdal Desvernam, of the fifteenth Regiment, and the charge that the officer had threatened his life with a revolver.
Testimony showed that the two went into a 131st Street café for a drink. The officer declared Siki was half-drunk and was so chatted when he praised France that the boxer kissed him on the forehead. In the hot words that followed, Lieut Desvernam drew his revolver while Siki beat it to the police station to cause his arrest, the guard officer, the magistrate ruled Desvernam had a right to carry a revolver and dismissed the case. Siki did not apear.
Renault Not Ripe
New York, Nov. 15.—Jack Renault, the Canadian heavyweight, scouted the Everish efforts certain promoters have been making to rush him into a match with Harry Wills since the latter so ignominiously dispatched Jack Thompson recently, by declaring this week that he would not be ready to meet Wills for six months.
"AFRO"
BASKETBALL LEAGUE
will open hostilities this season—Monday night, November 26th, in the "Y" Gymnasium. The game between the Athenian Arrows and Scholastics starts 8:30 sharp.
New York, Nov. 15.—Battling Siki showed his wares to a large gathering of fans, including an invading jury of local newspaper scribes, at the S. Bey farm, Summit, N. J., yesterday, and a likely looking ringman he turned out to be.
Speaking but a few words of English, though master of nine other languages, Siki held court and made a plea for pleasant job of him. He cast case from the beginning and lived up to his reputation of being a good showman, whether in the ring or on the boulevards of naughty Parce.
He boxed only four rounds and all of them against Jack Taylor. In that time he demonstrated that he is a good two-listed workman, mixing or boxing as the other fellow ects.
That he is working hard for Norfolk, whom he meets in Madison Square Garden on the night of November 20, is certain, for he entered his training camp weighing 188.2 pounds and is down to 179 pounds at time.
He is magnificently built, having the torso of the Sharkey of old, and in the clinches he gave every evidence of being a young gladiator. Three years old and hasn't reached the pinnacle of his powers as yet. He reminds one for all the world of a big Joe Walcott. The best punch that he displayed yesterday was a left hand upercut to the body. He blow with which I wore Carpenter down and it is the one that will bring defeat to Mr. Norfolk," Sikil told an interpreter.

But such has been increased vitality and due to the increased resus to increased knowl- ture provides its own, providing the races muscles develop undevelop under increase economist declared that climate.
As the colored people of the South are being the experience gained in the unequal act, South Carolina, according to a recent census, owns ownership in this State has incrociably above that of the corresponding last decade. Illiteracy has also decreased. A years ago Ben Tillman and his assoc. with his discriminatory franchise laws, for every Negro to either own $300 or be able to explain any part of the C to him to be able to vote, while at the ignorant whites the franchise under clause, he had no idea perhaps that he stimulate education and home and make more powerful the very group ite.

Litzt hominist declared that Europe owes its ultimate.
At last the colored people of the South are beginning to cash in on the experience gained in the unequal struggle of racial contact.
In South Carolina, according to a recent census report, farm and home ownership in this State has increased at a ratio greatly above that of the corresponding group of whites during the last decade. Illiteracy has also had a corresponding decrease.
When years ago Ben Tillman and his associates came forward with his discriminatory franchise laws that made it necessary for every Negro to either own $300 worth of property or be able to explain any part of the Constitution submitted to him to be able to vote, while at the same time it allowed ignorant whites the franchise under a trick grandfather clause, he had no idea perhaps that the results would be to stimulate education and home and farm ownership and make more powerful the very group it was meant to submerge. But such has been the case.
The increased vitality and constantly decreasing death rate is due to the increased resistance of the race to diseases as well as to increased knowledge as to how to treat such diseases.
Nature provides its own compensation for inequalities in races, providing the races are made of the right stuff. Just as muscles develop under increased exercise, so do races develop under increased burdens. Litzt, the celebrated economist declared that Europe owes its civilization to its bad climate.

It is well for the American people that they pause in their busy careers to reflect seriously on the many blessings which attend their every-day life. It is true there are a great many things in our national and social life in which we do not measure up to our ideals. It is questionable whether the time will ever come when we shall have attained a political and social condition in which we shall not be called to the attainment of higher things and be agitated more or less with discontent.
Progress is the law of life, dissatisfaction is the mother of progress: It is out of dissatisfaction that there is born both the desire for better things and the endeavor to obtain them. Possibly we should be thankful today for even the things which are not to our liking, for these are the things which bid us to bestir ourselves.
Today America is big with hope because there is a larger body of men and women than ever before consecrated to the cause of freedom and inspired by lofty patriotism, who are daily devoting themselves to the advancement of what promises to make not only for our happiness and well-being; but for the happiness and well-being of the world.
No one whose soul is not dead in a sordid materialism or unresponsive to the higher things in life can fail on this national Thanksgiving Day to feel the call to a devout reverent acknowledgement before God of a deep and sincere gratitude for the multiplied blessings which today crown the lives of the American people. He appears to have withheld from us no good gift nor to have denied us any perfect begin!

Afro Is Uplifting, Standing For the Right and Opposing the Wrong
Dear Sir:
Having been a reader of your paper for some years, I have always found and still find your paper to be uplifting in every respect, always standing fearlessly for the right and opposing the wrong matter whom it offends in doing so.
Our race would be far better off today had it a larger number of such mouthpieces.
Trusting the good work that is being done by your paper may entitle me. I remain.

Colored People have More Than
Paid Their Debt To The Rich
Man's Party.
To the Editor:
In Africa on the Niger River one tribe is constantly making war on the other and minking slaves of all captives. The trading ships from our North Atlantic States, first sold these slaves into New England but the sudden change from the hot tropical sun to the winters of our northern states killed them. Then the same darkly traded soldier subjugated the others in our warm southern states here they thrived.
Not from any real love for colored people, but purely selfish motives; the Republican party set the Afro-American free; for three reasons. First to keep them from feeding the Southern soldiers in the war of 1862, Second, to thereby gain a vote which kept them in power for 25 years. Third, for little or no reason, for the northern manufacturers at the expense of the poor laboring men of the whole country. From Lincoln to Harding, the colored man has faithfully supported the rich man's party and more than paid his debt. Now let him realize he has today the "balance of power" and refuse to be led by the nose to the poles by the Republican bosses: let him call a halt and say his lie is his own, and will vote only on the honest man, that is a friend to the Negro, the poor man and the laborer.

News from various sections of the country show that this has been an ominous week for the Invisible Empire. In Atlanta, the birthplace of the hooded knights, the vitals of the organization are being torn out by a factional fight and William S. Coburn, a this-muck-de-muck man, is shot to death by Philip E. Fox, of the Klan regime. A brave Eraction judge is laying the foundation to purge Louisiana of this mob by finding Cap. J. K. Shipwith, exalted cyclops of the Morehouse Klan, guilty of lawlessness. What may seem stranger still, is the fact that out in Ohio, the hometown of Presidents, they elect Klan mayors and these have organized a special group of Klan mayor. This is partly offense to healthy news of Montpellier, Tennessee, white and colored voters alike to drive Klan influence on the politics of that city.
Memphis is an interesting city. Because of the fact that the races are nearly equally distributed there and the further fact that in and about this great Southern city there have been some of the most brutal examinations, violent, colored leaders have been forced more closely together than in any city in this country. There has been no appreciable decrease in the colored population of Memphis since the commercial interests of the city invited Negro leaders to join with them in instituting a business law. Rowley Payne to stamp out lawlessness. In an election last week they defended the Khan candidate again.
In a little basement church at the corner of Riggs avenue and Mount street, in Baltimore, several nights each week an humble group of folk hold religious services. For an hour one night this week with bowed heads we heard them sing a song that always ended with the line, "God's Promises Were Never Known." You can one listen as this group of simple and earnest folk pour out their child-like faith in these lines, and not feel that it is in such places as this we get a taste of real religious servor. In their faces were the clear lines of exacting toil, of hearts seared and broken by many a disappointment, of trembling hands that had in many hard cows that had been put to the ground. But above all this they could still lift themselves above the vicissitudes of life into the ecstasy of belief in the never failing promises of a lovable God.
It is not always in marbled-hailed churches, where expensively dressed men and women sit, that we find true religion. With perfect diction the minister preaches sermons which omit reference to the vital things of life, and the tingle of the collection plates drowns the spirit of sacrilege. If ever you feel your faith simp- tely in the mortal and immortal God, go to one of these little basement churches and, hear them sing "God's Promises. Were Never Known To Fail."
Simultaneously with the announcement of the State Department that this country will not participate in the reparations inquiry under the terms imposed by France, a new German company, the Monarchist regicomp. While there can be no doubt but that a strong hand is now needed to save the fastly disintegrating German Empire, all are agreed that it can never be a monarchistic dictatorship. Never more will kings rule the land of the monarch, will rulers secure power other than through the will of the masses of people. Negro students looking to careers of leadership should get this fact and principle well grounded into their brain. Mankind is steadily marching towards a new Garvey failed; to see this new goers have Bone. Whetikin

Haitian Progress
News from Haiti shows that at the close of the fiscal year just ended this Negro Republic showed a total of $8,496,889 collected from customs and internal revenue. This is an increase of more than a million dollars over any years in the past. This report also shows that for the first time in the history of the Republic there was no dead season between the economic and political periods. It will be remembered that United States are under U.S. supervision. Since the country is able to stand on her own feet now, it is hard to see the necessity for this country's continued intervention.

64—Who was Peter Salem?
In the battle of Bunker Hill Negro soldiers so distinguished themselves that their names have come down to us parlanded with the tributes of their contemporaries. Peter Salem, until then a slave, a private in Col. Nixon's regiment of Continents, without orders fired deliberately upon Major Dicenjar as he mounted the parapet and was leading the assault of the British to what appeared certain victory.
65—What was "The Anglo-African"?
"The Anglo-African" appeared in 1859, under the management of the strongest and most brilliant purely literary families the American Negro up to that time had produced. It was edited and published by Thomas Hamill and had its biography York. It came in 1859 and continued through the war and in 1865 went out of existence honorably, having its work well done. Its first volume contained / the ablest papers ever given to the public by the American Negro, and taken as a whole this volume is one of the proudest literary monument the race has as 66—Who was Hiezekiah Grice? yet erected.
Hozekiah Grice was born in Baltimore, Md., in 1801. Very little is known of his early days, but in the Spring of 1830 he conceived a plan of calling together a meeting, or convention of colored men, to prove the condition of the freedmen of his race, and aid his slave brethren. Regardless of his founding the convention of 1830 and assisting in the convention of 1831, through jealousy, he was not permitted to sit as a member of the convention of 1832 the excuse being that his credentials were faulty. "This was the most unkindest cut of all," and Mr. Grice became chagrinned at his envious brethren, and migrated to Haiti, where until 1842 he persisted the business of car and motor. In the year he was appointed Director of Public Works in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.

KELLY MILLER SAYS
The first college graduates entered the ministry.
Today they seek to become wealthy. * * * * Marcus Garvey and DuBois are pursuing the same ideal.
First College Grads
In 1875, four colored colleges graduates entered upon the study of Theology in Princeton University. They were Matthew W. Anderson, James Lincoln University, W. Culb, of Stoke University, and High St. Brunel of Howard University. They have all had useful and distinguished careers in the spiritual education and social leadership of the people. The recent death of Professor of the home, the promoter of practical educational methods, calls this recital to mind.
At the time the higher education of the Negro was in the experimental stage. It was under the philanthropic supervision of the clerical type. The New York bans colleges and binds the institution to the institution where they were largely devoted to turning out candidates for the ministry. Our whole educational philosophy was swapped by the theological bias. Small wonder that the Northern philanthropist expected to develop quickly a class of educated ministers for the moral and spiritual direction of the masses. The young men above referred to were not only the eldest but the elite of their day and generation. It would be difficult to find another group who have wrought more worthily than they.
Times Have Changed
Times change and men change with them. In the olden day the college served mainly as a fitting school for the ministry. When the higher educational opportunities were first opened up to the colored race, our ambitions youth partook of the spirit of the time. The change in the shape was basically an economic movement, yet it was shot through with the dynamic of spiritual motive. Purely logical deductions from economic theories can never stir the imagination on thrill the hearts of men. Masses of men are not motivated through the intellect through the feeling of religious emotion gives religious power.
The altruistic spirit was easily infused into the benefited race Northern missionaries exemplified in their lives the gospel of self-denying service. The Negro disciple was easily responsive to the appeal of the white master. More altruism was without bounds. Every other Negro graduate of forced himself as a missionary to the African continent. Professor M. M. Brown led the ect of the Continued of Africa, and accepted service as professor in the college of Liberia.
The Present Generation
The present generation of Negro colleges are in the main gestated by the dominant motive of the day in which they live. As the economic motive strengthens altruistic devotion declines. The individual without an altruistic ideal never rises to the level of his best self. God and Mummon will not mix. You will either hold to the one and hate the other, or serve the one and deny the other. But we must not be too hard on the new issue of the rising generation. Altruism and human service are given a different slant social welfare. After the stage of transformation, has been passed who hope that the college bred Negro will be clothed in his right mind, and will again seek the service of race rather than self.
Grimke, Anderson, Culp and Browne, the first fruits of college culture, devoting themselves to the moral and spiritual betterment of their race through the highest standard of ministerial preparation, stand as an example and a reproof to the more worldly mind of the college generation. We need to return to the spirit of consecration and race devotion which dominated the college world fifty years ago.
The African Redivivus
the soul of the Negro race turns ever and anon to the motherland of Africa. After sojourneying in the wilderness of gentile civilization for twenty centuries, the Jew still years for the time to return to his dear Judea.
The scattered fragments of African people have no ties of endurement that draw them their anecdotal histories. Whatever may have been the culture and accomplishments of the Dark Conti- tions has been completely broken by the chaos of centuries of separation and obliviousness. Frederick Douglass used to declare: "there is none of the banana in me."
In case of the Jew the tie of tender recollection has never been severed. And yet, the pull of the continent of Africa tugs constantly at the heart string of race. Because of that race, the African constituent is not fully acceptable in other lands. Dr. Du-Bois informs us that the French delegates have withdrawn from his Pan-African conference because they were perfectly satisfied with their status as Frenchmen. Even if the nations among whom he stands should front him with consideration of one hundred per cent equality, I some how wonder of the race would not still hear and heed the call of the continent of their nativity.
About the year 1820, the colony of Liberia was founded as a foothold of the transplanted race in the land of their mothers. This was the altruistic concept of an alien mind. The male Liberia man was the captive who the white man thinks the Negro should think about his native language. Enthusiasm
Liberia
for Liberian colonization gave way to the emotional wave of racial equality, engendered by the Civil War. It was quickly revived when the war fever began to cool. When the war fever began to melt, meningue was enkinned with considerable force and force. Dr. Edward W. Hyden, the famous Negro scholar, was the master mind in this reawakening. Professor Hugh M. Browne, and former professor W. responded to the call. But Dr. Hyden received only to be revived in our own day and time. Dr. Dubois is fostering the Pan-African Conference composed of
representatives of the mother continent now sentiered among the various nations of the earth. Marcus heyden has more positive and dramatic movements in theogram of immediate or early ecteiveness. He startles the world with the self-insurance and finality of his proposals. He puts the world at a gaze like a new comet that blazes suddenly in the heavens. The one fundamental difference between African and African selections consists in the fact that the one relied upon the philanthropy of the whites to put it in execution while the present African renaissance depends the Negro himself. In this respect Garvey has given something new. He believes that there is a need to reclaim and develop its native continent, if only it might be released and given efficient, expression.
It would be absurd to attempt to prophesy the outcome of any of the proposed schemes of African redemption. They are all worthy of consideration, if not of appreciation. But whatever may be the outcome of this scheme or that may only expect the more less regular recurrence of the African repatriation, at least until the scattered fragments become fully satisfied with the lands in which they sojourn.
Reducing Southern Representation
The Crisis, by use of a logic that is hard to understand, argues that reduction of the number of delegates from non-Republican states in the National Convention presages cutting down Southern representation in Congress.
The provision of the Fourteenth Amendment for reducing representation under certain conditions is concerned. No congress that lacks the courage to enforce the fifteenth amendment is likely to have the tenacity to enforce the fifteenth.
It is hard to understand the opinion that books forward to the time when either of the fifteenth amendments will be enforced, unless there is a chance in the future of the Republican party in the issue under discussion certainly does not indicate.
The central committee has selected Chicago as the meeting place of the Sanhedrin because of its central location, freedom of atmosphere and the generosity of its citizenry. The time was changed from November 1945 to the preliminary work of the commissions required extension of time. The necessity of the Sanhedrin grows as the day come and go and as events unfold. It will be the most momentous meeting for race counsel that has yet taken place on this continent.

To An Old Friend
I think of you often,
Old friend of mine,
Tho my lips seldom
Utter your name.
My heart calls aloud.
So it seems you must hear,
And step down from my
Memory's old picture frame.
There are times when I fancy,
Old friend of mine.
That from Death's quiet path
By the side of Life's way
You can hear my hearts cry
And then—whisper a call
Which blends love and light
To my sky—which was gray

all emphasize the power of that
