Mr Tobias, said in part: "It is a puzzled Negro youth who turns his eye inquiring toward Helsingfors tonight. From South Africa he is asking how it is that many Christian leaders either through active advocacy or passive acquiescence give their support to such measures as the Color Bar Bill. He does not understand the Christian conscience that has no word of disapproval of the loving conditions of native workers in the gold and diamond mines. "The Negro of the United States is puzzled about a Christian leadership that has for more than fifty years violated the laws of the 14th and 15th amendments of the *the Constitution* (those protections for the rights of suffrage) while national or sectional conventions are held every year in the interest of the enforcement of the law. He further wonders why it is that these same Christian leaders have permitted an anti-litching pill in fail of passage twice for lack of knowledge.

B. Cochran, Must Not Be Confined With Jazz PRAISE DEEPER SPIRITUAL SONGS Composers Have Exaggerated Extravigances To Please Crowds "The expressive and appealing art of the Negro must not be confused with that mixed product of Negro Sicilian and Negrold elements which has for some years usurped so important a place in light entertainment and popular music, but has been defending American Negro from the aspersions that jazz music, as we know it to-day, is a product of Negro art. This statement as given in a recent issue of The African World, says that the first form in which Negro music attracted the attention of the white people in devotional songs, now as "spirituals." Negro Songs "Near the Lake Where Droop the Willows," and other adaptations became popular. A higher note was struck by Stephen Foster, who had intended a colored church to hear the singing, is "My Old Kentucky Home," "Good Night," and "Old Babies." Home" tells favorites with the public everywhere, but spurious imitations were popular for a season. The Jubilee Singers The vogue of this music again fell off until the jubilee singers sang the slave songs "so deeply into the world's heart that it can never forget them again." And says. The Birth Of Jazz Jazz was born of ragtime in the lower haunts of New Orleans by colored musicians, who knew nothing of the grammar of music or the canons of compositions. This wild revelry caught the imagination of white composers, whose anguages, clouded its beauty and produced the international grotesque now known as jazz. SPENGLER WRITES Clarence Emerson Redd, who attained fame as Fuzzy, the giant runner in "Kongo," will leave New York to open with the "Kongo" company in Chicago, according to popculture historian Sponger. his press representative Redd scored triumphant successes as the Moorish King in "The Miracle," and as the butler in "Aphrodite," but not until his performances in "Kongo" was he able to sweep the entire city of fear Metropolitan critics halt Redd as the peer of Paul Robeson and Chas.

The Savoy Theater, a mutual burlesque house, prior to the placing of circuit shows August 29. Drake has added his famous hit entitled "Cover Charges," with Ethel Merman, the vampire Jolie Dandridge as the waiter, Jimmie Baskett as the proprietor and Drake as old Rough House. No other actor known has been able to score as Drake has while doing this bit. The Alken, Trumpet Jazz King, is the big hit of the show; but each and every actor is able to get a lion's share of applause for his or her work. Josie Puggleg, for years Drake's musical director, staged the majority of numbers and hits used by the company.

Lovey Mary KEEN BRAIN WORK IS MOSS-FRYE FORTE KEEN BRAIN WORK IS MOSS-FRYE FORTE Deep Understanding Of Science Of Humor Has Made Them Keith Headliners Met Senior Partner Fourteen Show Out West Real brain work, coupled with a sense of humor, standing of a collection of humor has made Moss and Frye, playing last week at the Maryland Theater, Keith Vaudeville headliners. Back of the seemingly ridiculous non-sequential, unapparious banter characterized by such funny sayings as "How high is up," is the expenditure of much real grey material, and this pattern has become so recognized and stolen by many misplaced acts. From Musical Family Moss is a member of the Moss family, of Fairfield, Iowa, a family of entertainers and singers who made themselves famous during the statue era of the Carnegie libraries in their town, and town benefit concerts. Moss went to the public school and was the first race student to graduate from high school. Moss is who is a little older than his partner, was born in Laurence, Kansas, a town made famous as the birthplace of two other great Broadway favorites, the late Bill Williams and George Gershwin. Act Fourteen Years Old After his graduation, Moss joined the "Georgia Minstrels," in which he was one of the featured attractions. During his moving from one show to another, he made use of his spare time studying. Fourteen years ago Moss and Frye met in a minstrel show and decided to form an act and try vaudelle. They have been on the laughing hit of every bill they have appeared on. Use New Jokers Here The boys are living up to their original policy, "be brave" by taught to the Marrys, fresh and new line of gags that are sure-fire hitters. The comedy that the people are so familiar with has been changed for something more up-to-date. These two although, on the same bill with some of the Keith super-attractions, manage to clock the show each of which are as follows: Moss: You are supposed to be a human being. Frye: Don't believe everything you hear. Frye to Moss: If you had something for everytime you had nothing you wouldn't need a thing else in this world. Frye tries to give the impression that he is so dumb he thinks Plymouth Rock is a chicken. Several late songs are featured. All-Colored Film Due David Stackman will bring his all-colored picture, "A Prince of His Race" into the New York Negro film houses within a few weeks. A METRO-GOLDWYN MAYER PICTURE with CLAIRE WINDSOR and OWEN MOORE A METRO-GOLDWYN- MAYER PICTURE with BESSIE LOVE WILLIAM HAINES Along The White Way --- Kaufman's Music Shop 439 N. Gay Street, Baltimore, Md. We Ship Everywhere — Write for our Catalogue of Hymns and Blues This Is Their Last Appearance ```markdown ``` By MABELLE CHEW I don't know whether its the dark grap weather which gives me the rainy "Blues" or just an anticlimax to last week's splendid show, but the White Way didn't seem so brilliant this week. Miller and Slater are wristful pinch-hitting singers for my favorite band, the wardrobe for his chironomis and the show is not a flop. Even my biasey companion commented on a beautiful curtain arrangement and the lovely costume Mr. Slater carries on much stuff. But when you come to think of it the costumes are so scanty you could put fifty of them in a suitcase. They have a new comedian named Jake, who hings about. The longer he stays on the stage the better he gets. The parody on corn which he sang was amusing. Henderson made a good costume. She couldn't bring herself to blacken her face like the tiny comediene of last week but she was a scream any how. I certainly like Wiltshire's singing, and I hope I have his name spelled right. I don't think I should flatter about that, z z z z For the first time I enjoyed a Wild West picture. Not even the scenario writer could wreck a Zane Grey story and "Born to the West" is good. Colorado, the hero gives an example of sheer courage and determination to fight fearlessness that it will not harm the children to see. Volga Boatman While I'm talking about pictures I might as well skip to the "Volaig Boatman" at the Regent. It is a very good picture. I do not think it will do the work of the vance notices rated it but it is a teacher of courage and bravery. I'm afraid had we been a little you have been alarmed at the hearty have been alarmed at the hearty BIG MIDNIGHT SHOW SUNDAY NIGHT accord of the colored people with the ideas of freedom expressed by Feodor the boatman. The Russian (text of messages) was not insulted and was not insulted made the audience laugh. It looked like silly picturea to them I suppose. Harlem Scandals The Harlem Scandals had some scandalously well-shaped girls in the chorus, and the night it was there they didn't feel like singing. I'll admit the weather was enough to take the shine out of a brass monkey, but she was undoubtedly the little girl dancer. Seldom have I seen a more sophisticated youngster. She had every action of a stage weary trouper. But she was undoubtedly a child actress. She could limitate a saxophone, with her voice. Do a split, tap dance, Charleston, Aescape around! In fact she was an amazement. She finished her act with a blaze backward kick and while supporting her parents her clipping was automatic. I wondered if she had any childish characteristics off the scape. She show was neat, however and insults of the rainy blues I had to laugh at the comedians and the skit at the end. This was an unusual ending as they really with singing. Taken altogether I had a real evening of enjoyment and there must have been a lot of audience for I actually heard an aphause. One would have to be handless no shirt and no applause. If he had sung more verse of "Gross my Heart Mother I Love You," I would have to tears the way it was raglant.

Doings Behind The Asbestos-Reviews THEATRICAL SECTION Where the Professionals Play-Routings If you know that lovelily air from one of the operas, "The Boat Song," you will have a slight idea of the "The Volga Boatman," shown at the Regent Theater last-week, when it is accompanied by an orchestra. Regent possesses This music, plus the acting of Elinor Fair as Princess Vera and William Boyd as Feeder of the Oatman, provided, as enjoyable an hour, one could possibly fish in the field of wisdom. The film is so fine itself that it will be entertaining almost anywhere, but with the score issued especially for the film being played, it was a distinct treat. Some of these jazz-band who claim to be hawking will probably hawking "Red Hot Mama" to the love scenes, but any orchestra conductor who is so stupid as to make botchwork of the music should go with the picture he be made to stand the busiest and pelted with small sharp stones. Mrs. Lillian R. Thompson at the Regent proved that music has charms. Her rendering of the Boat Song all during the showing pictures added to the film, which could rapt attention from the clever forward to the romantic finale. Pittsburgh Flashes Pittsburgh, Pa. (PNS)—Para mount Inn and Friday night, morning. The general impression that the crusaders were responsible for the Reports from the Public Safety Director's Office indicate that Harry Clark, proprietor of the Lea House and James D. Clark proprietor of the Paris, were unconciously the direct cause. "I cater to all white only," said Mr. Gross. While Mr. Clark informed the director that the finest city and most orderly city is the clearest city for colored people only." There being only three prominent cabarets on Wylie avenue, it was quite natural if Clark "black and tanning" was going on, and Paramount Inn was the sponsor. It is not contended that Clark and Gross conveyed the impression intentionally, if unintentionally, they deserve no sympathy knowing that a certain element is working to abolish all cabarets and that their continuation made possible only through the generosity of Mayor Kline and his chief associates.

CHANEY in "PHANTON OF OPERA"---12 Acts In a recent issue of LIBERTY magazine, Daniel Belasco, who produced the sensational "LULU BELLE," lauds the achievement of present day HAGE actors. Mr. Belasco says, "Fate has decreed that I should know the Negro of modern days; that I should know him and his psychology intimately. And the contact has brought me to this finding. The theater of tomorrow must position with a new force—the race of Ham." Instinctive Ability "The Negro, from today onward, will compel recognition through the sheer power of his instinctive mind talent. I will go further and declare that no race, even the sorrow swept Jez, can surpass the Negro for instinctive stage ability. And as a climax to my prediction, I believe that annotated works should be the type in which those of the Caucasian race will witness a surprising development of this hitherto dormant nature gift. "The Negro, with his submerged, instinctive voice, is a natural actor. He has a sufficient background of tragedy to make him fertile ground in which to implant the seeds of splendid laughter and production of a new play—Lulu Belle—with a cast of 117 Negroes and 13 white players. "At first I was minded to do the play with white actors in burnt-cork costumes, but I was not sure such a proceeding and turned to a study of the Negro race at first hand." Varied Cast "In my company there are representatives of all walks of Negro life. Madame Do Knight is a well known woman. I know what I believe, make her mark as an emotional actress one of these days. She is a splendid reader, gifted with a delicacy of diction and an understanding few achieve. Then we have a young student in our course; a student of the ministry, and others from Columbia and Fisk University. "I am glad to be the first to show the Negro, not in caricature, but as he kreal to cosmopolitan aggrievement the Negro has made the journey. Watch him during the next decade!"

WHITE ACTOR GETS DEATH THREAT Chicago. (AXP)—Frank Keenan, white, a veteran actor, starring in the play "Black Velvet," has turned over to postal authorities a letter threatening to not leave town immediately and close up his play. Included in the letter to Keenan was a clipping praising the actor's work in Black Velvet. In the play, the letter putupon to express the view of "28,509 Negros" and warned Keenan that he would be shot on sight. He has hired several detectives to guard him. In the Chicago papers directed attacks against the play "Black Velvet," holding that it was an insult to the Negro race worse than the "Birth of a Nation." The attack of the ship was especially spirited but the credit to Keenan was as an actor.

The attraction will be "Seven-Eleven" in "Watermelons." Garland Howard., Mae Brown and Speedy Smith are the stars. These two stars were seen last season in "Seven-Eleven" and in this show have been provided or have provided themselves with entirely new gags and new songs. Besides there is a superior chorus of twenty-four of the fastest-stepping, prancing dusky damselflies which can be corralled. The story is built around two fakers, too up-to-date for the little town from which they hail, but who return later with a great idea of making "watermelons" grow on a tree overnight. The boys get the old folks to finance their scheme and with the proceeds start on a pleasure tour of the world and in which they visit the various in of Europe. What happens to then they is a perfect riot and a gale of them. They are jazz-band features, such as we carried by "Seven-Eleven" last year, number and ensemble.

RES Paris Dance Critic Sees "Black Peril" "We have certainly no color prejudice," says Helley, famous critic, in the Fronde. "but we don't like particularly to be victims of conquests, and that of the old world by the degrees of the imperialist excessive." "The that the loose-jointed school should have a passing vogue is not surprising, but the mode is lasting and becoming daily more strongly enriched. From the cake-walk to the harleston, Frenchmen have 'danced Marseille.' It is all very well to admire the dancing of ebony limbs; but must we imitate it, and in so doing neglect our charming delicate rhythms of the pass—the elegant minuet, the gavotte, and the noble pavane? Why not copy proud carriage of our black Senegalese than the cecropion of California." "A woman—Mrs. Beecher Stowe—wrote a book of admirable generosity which made all Europe weep. The grand-nephews of Uncle Tom are getting their revenge today, in occupation of the continent which must give them a great deal of amusement." Everybody at the Star seemed well pleased with Dad James and his hard working aggregation. Although small, this show has a few odds on the usual tab, for each of the choirs he plays, a chorus is being able to jump in as a soubrete at a minute's notice. We found the actors all in high spirits and "Dad" all smiles, as the show was exactly three years old on Monday. Miss Marion Ford, a local girl, supports Elmore Elmore, an unusual musical who scores heavily as a singer, dancer and in character roles. Mrs. Pearl James is the fascinating leading lady. The other girls are, Gladys Taylor and Valma Wiggins. Fred "Dad" James, Jr., handles the choirs in the foot-tracks of his parents. Willie Tosweet and Johnny Wiggins keep the house in an uproar with their comic antics and cut-ups. Frank DelYons, formerly with the late Coleman and Johnson Company, is and has been Dad's character main Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas are handling the piano and drums and that Nicholas had. The show opened with Nicholas in the pit singing "I've Found a Round About Way to Heaven" and the合唱团 a jubilee shout that Nicholas had the house. ROYAL Benbow's "Get Happy Company," which is built on the order of the average revue with traces of a plot here and there, is doing good business. The high spots are the dancing of Al and Al, the Darktown Strutters, and the singing of C. J. Davis, a likable tenor. Henry Mitchell, Baltimore's versatile entertainer: Ozle Stennils, saw soloist, and Bruce Austin, wire walker, prove clever entertainers in a Charleston while standing on his head that brings much merriment. The big part of Shorty's act will be pulled on Sunday night, when he will get married. Margie Cohen, gorgeously cosumed and a change for each occasion is enchanted by the elongated soubretes of the day. Benbow has little to do but does it in a pleasing way. John Rucker and James Strong, who pull the "Original Tags" rag to perfection, are funny comedians. The Norton is a keen lover of selling their songs. The chorus madden are Euenia Bowman, Hester Brown, Alice Myles, Olivia Belle, Bence Powell, Elsie Robinson, Maggie Lee and Geraldine Robinson. Catherine Ragland handles a Josey is at the piano with Joe Bobbin handling the cornet. Costuming and scenery are good and are displayed on a neat group of chorines. Some singers have mellow voices and others sound like they might have been pulled too soon. ir Beautiful Wash the hair thoroughly with Nelson's Salp and Hair Cleaner.

Are chorus girls "dumb Doras?" Are they nothing but dancing Jolls, jazz mad, with voracious appetites for food, liquor and petting? What do they think of life, love, marriage, children and the average man? Somehow the prevailing opinion entertained by most people about chorus girls has always impressed me as being based on prejudice rather than fact. After careful study of the chorus girl and a series of interviews, as to what the girl in the chorus thinks about life's greatest problems, profoundly stirring results are revealed. Among them we found a hunger for a higher mental and spiritual comradship, a resentment that they are, not creaturely, found in their dressing rooms busily engaged with their sewing, correspondence courses and engaged in interesting discussions. The girls reason for being on the stage vary, some because of necessity, some follow in the foot-steps of their parents as a matter of course and some to dodge the drudgery of their career for the comforts of home and a pleasant marriage. All would like children, all believe petting is permissible when they really care for a man. Half of them believe morals on the stage are the same as elsewhere; some, that they are worse, a few say they are better. However their ideas may differ, the important finding is that the chorus girl is a real person, not a dancing doll, and she thinks and years of jazz and petting.

He further states that, it shows wisdom to economize, giving this as his solution and idea of how he held his company together this summer and is still strong. You have as much money as Mr. So and So's, but they know that whether they work or lay of they will be taken care of, for I have arranged my show so that when I enter the smaller houses, my expenses will have been accounted for. I let go all of the surplus that I could rest with, and paying each person $10,000 before I get along. Summer time means "off time" for the people have invaded the seashores and mountains and the houses are only playing on percentage which hardly justifies the average show. Wake up to the true facts of economy, for you only make a bad fellow if you don't know those big wages and get a bad break. It is better to pay $15 a week, merely than $30 per week, perhaps.

Don Cesar de Vega, of California, as his father, Zorro, had done before him, went to Spain to complete his studies. At a Students' Club on an afternoon he demonstrated some of the tricks that he could perform with a California whip. This, seemingly trivial incident had several important results. It enabled Fabrique Borusta, a social guerilla, to obtain unauthorized possession of an invitation to bail shortly to be given by a visiting Ardchuk, and Don Cesar into disagreeable contact with Don Zorro, supervisee officer of the Queen's guards. Sebastian. In the ensuing argument Cesar gave a most excellent account of himself. His concluding exploit saved a number of bystanders, and incidentally Don Sebastian himself, from being gored to death by a bull that had broken from the fence. Cesar then sent Cesar into the favorable consideration and observation of the Queen and the visiting Archduke. It also brought him the accession of the crowds. Escaping from the latter, he found the beautiful Spanish garden and in the presence of the beautiful Spanish Sentinel, theuro, whose father was Lord High Chamberlain of the Royal household. Don Sebastian, sent by the Queen to fetch Don Cesar, came to this same garden on the heels of Cesar's leaving men met with the Archduke, who was unaware of the other's visit. The Archduke's interest in Cesar was enhanced upon acquaintance, and it chanced that he was a guest at the De Muro home on an evening and had the whimsical experience of seeing Don Cesar make love to Dolores on a balcony in the garden while she and her father were in bed with her father or on her hand. The Archduke's sympathy was all with Cesar and so, when the three young people were guests at his ball, he proved his friendship for Cesar by dragging the solden Sebastian off to the card game, and leaving a fair field for Cesar. Sebastian's rancor grew until it resulted in the murder of the Archduke. Sebastian successfully manoevered to plant the guilt of the murder on Cesar. To give himself time to prove his innocence Cesar tricked the people gathered in the card room into believing that he had committed suicide. How he successfully fathomed the mystery of the murder—how his father, Peter, arrived in Spain in time to help him obtain the visible proof of his innocence—and how Cesar and Dolores were re-united—these things are all told in the remainder of the story.

"Y" HAS MIDGET GIRLS ROMP AT WILLS' HEARING SWIM TEAM SUMMER CAMP IS POSTPONED Sox-Cubans Smash Records Play Game In 1.41 The "T" pool is growing in popularity under the direction of Clarence Pendleton, who has charge for the summer season. Swimming classes are held for men and boys every day when expert instruction is given. The classes are growing in the most active groups is the midtown team, just organized. It is composed of boys from 10 to 13 years. At present it has ten members. Mr. Pendleton says it will be limited to fifteen. Some of the good swimmers among the boys are, Samuel Gaines, Frank Dwyer, Samuel Waters, Arthur Wright, Samuel Cunliffe, a city swimming Donald Cunliffe Cowford. Donald Murray is the outstanding diver for the "T" pool. Little Charles Ridegley, in two weeks, has developed into an excellent swimmer. Messrs. J. Clarence Chambers, George Larkins and John Martin are daily patrons among the men swimmers. A competition swim for men has been arranged for Saturday night at $30. Entrants are invited. The swim team is named for Charles Tartar and Coach Pendleton boys on the same day at 12 o'clock are training faithfully at the pool and Brown's Grove for their coming 15 o'clock. The swim team is named for the pool continuously for two hours, testing his endurance. It is estimated that a swim of about 112 times around the pool averages one mile. Tartar went around about 300 times. The direction of Della Campbell and William Martin, a boxing club has been organized. The club is planning an exhibition in the near future. They meet every night in the "gym," where they engage in running, sparing, shadow boxing and rope skipping. The members are Stanley McGee, James Reeder, Matthew Williams, William Walker, "the Fighting Parson," and Wyatt. REGENT The much heralded "Shufflin' Sam" has arrived, the same Sam but only three of the original characters re-issue by Boy Hines, Harry Nay and Hoyt Jenkins. "Shufflin' Sam" will not be recognized as the same one due to the fact that they are doing three a day and cannot unfold the plot in full. As a curtain raiser, Detroit Shannon, violinist and orchestra leader, sings "Sweet Man" from the pit and scores a such a tremendous hit that the curtain is the easiest. The other members of the orchestra are, Claude Alexander, cornet; Morris O'Brien and Ernest O'Neil, saxaphones; Sam Hargis, trombone; Leroy Henderson, piano, and Charles Neal, drums. John Church-hill, the singer with a double voice and Johnny Woods, the ventriloquist, are this week's riot acts. John and that dummy are just too hard to mole was unable to work the first half. Harry Nay and Hoyt Jenkins handle their comedy just a little different from the so-called comedians and this puts them in a class by themselves. There are some of the abbreviated costumes seen in the usual shows of today to be found in "Shuffin' Sam," although several first class changes are made. Jackie Chambers was a charming strutter. Zoofardian hammers, playing the bass, were handled by Baby Hilms, fits in nicely. But after seeing the old show, we wish Baby was working here instead of opening in Washington next week. Two nifty dancing boys, Campbell and Farro and the Palmetto Four ably take care of the singing and dancing.

Thetwo clubs returned to Baltimore Thursday, the Sox bus was covered with rain. The Cubans were in first place by one point Wednesday. The Black Sox and the Cuban Stars; of the Eastern League smashed all records at Maryland baseball park Sunday when they played the first game in one hour and 41 minutes. It was an unusual exhibition and was applauded by local fans, who sometime have been complaining because it took anywhere from two to five innings and three-quarters to play a game. Anxious to find out where the time was wasted, the AFRO put a stop watch to work. Sunday of last week and found out that 4½ minute innings infelders used up the time to discolor and roughen six new balls that were thrown out in the game. Four and a half minutes while important didn't explain why it took such a long time to play the nine stop watch was put to work again to find actual time taken by each side to play a half-inning and the actual time occupied by the players positions and going back out again. The stop watch showed that with the Sox in the field, it took them anywhere from two to one-half mile to 5.5 minutes to put out three hands. The shortest inning was the fourth which was played in 2.4 minutes, and the longest was the sixth when it took the Black 5.5 minutes to retire the Cubans. The Cuban Stars' shortest inning was the third. It took them exactly 1.5 minutes to retire three men who took the Sox. But much faster worker than McClure, who pitched for the Sox. The longest inning for the Cubans was the eighth when it took them 5.5 minutes to retire the side. It took the Sox just about 44 minutes actually playing in nine innings to retire the Cubans. It took the Cubans 33.4 minutes the first time which they worked to retire the Sox. Sox Take Longer The stop watch showed that it took the Sox longer to get out into the field after the side had been worked to retire places ready to start to new inning. The Sox used 12.5 minutes in this way and the Cubans 10 minutes to change sides. They third and fourth innings the Cubans did their quickest work. They actually changed sides in 8 of a minute. Between the sixth and seventh innings they took the sixth and seventh sides. The Black Sox took more than a minute for every time they went longest change of sides was be to their places in the field and the other places in the seventh innings when it took them 2.4 minutes to change. The game started promptly 2:13 P.M. At 3:45 it was over, just before the game. Oh, Boy. That's big league stuff. Page Seven TS WILLS' HEARING IS POSTPONED NEW YORK—Crowd blocked Washington Heights Court last week to see Harry Wills and a number of other well-known pugilists face the charge of giving boxing exhibitions without Six white boxers were also arrested at Grubb's Gymnasium, 252 W. 162nd street, and 200 white fans were in the gym at the time the officers entered, and they paid an admission of 25 cents.

A letter had been sent to the Polish authorities about the infraction of the State law, and charging Grubb and other gym owners with violation of the law governing boxing exhibitions.

MORE FLOWERS (Continued from Page One) and declared that all of the others were even. In none of them did Greb have even a slight advantage. Flowers Clean The different methods of Flowers and the unimportant work of Greb was seen most prominently in the clinches. Stung by the poisonous Greb hung on whenever he could. At the referee's command to break, Tiger extended both arms and broke his weight on the concomitant body. They had to be pressed apart. These were precious moments. In the seventh round Greb accidentally slipped to the converse after Flowers had sent a hard left to the body. Flowers had wounded back and wounded the fans. Eleventh Round The fifteenth round was the clinica to a wild, flashing battle. They rushed Greb wrestled and pushed Flowers so roughly that the champion was sent halfway through the ropes. Greb did not step back, but instead sent a left to the body and blocked Flowers' body attack Flowers sent a left to the body. Both men missed the simple trick to pull Greb off, but Greb dodged another uppercut from Flowers and hung on for near life. This time Greb notched out a left, trying to try him off as the bell rang. Third Meeting This was the third meeting between these two fighters and then far flowers has made him a clean sweet man. The very visual appeal of his incision affair out in Ohio, and grabbing two decisions in Tex Rickard's big indoor arena, the street from the Garden is the Polyclinic Hospital, where Rudolph Valentino, the film star, is all. Some of the fans suggested that he go over and have his eyes dressed Extra Papers Extra newspapers carrying accounts of Tiger's victory were on sale outside the Garden Hill about the actualighting except the headlines which many to believe that two separate newspapers were hand for the purpose. Who Won "Who won the fight?" asked one youngster on Seventh avenue, as the fans filed out of the Garden. "Flowers," was the response. "Flowers," was the response. "because it because he won over the radio. The announcer gave all the best of it to Greb." was the sensible reply, "but they didn't fight over the radio." Some fans thought that because Flowers was injured a few days ago down in Atlanta when he was found lying on the floor, he slowed up. Flowers was just as chipper as ever. Greb never knew where he would land next. Flowers southpaw style always had Greb the guise. When flowers brittle jaws, was also exploded Thursday night. Greb reached Flowers' jaw frequently, about as often as with a smile and sent back better than he received. Greb Hugs In the fourth round Flowers complained that Geb was thrusting his arm up the wall and clutches. The referee warned Geb. The Pittsburgh white boy was sure and confident in these early rounds, the foe fought with his left arm extended and held at his side. Apartment care free. "You didn't touch me," or "You hit me on the arm," he would say in Flowers' blows at him from all directions. Holding "By the sixth round Flowers' body blows began to tell and Greb started holding. "Stand off and fight," Flowers would say. But Greb held on for dear life. Now Greb's right arm was around Flowers' neck; now he had both arms around his waist; now he was pinning both of Flowers' arms to his sides; now Greb was resting his head on Flowers' neck and leaning his weight on him, while the crowd yelled, "Don't kiss him, Harry." In the eighth round Flowers slipped to the floor in a wild rush to catch Greb, but he was on his knees fighting again before the referee could count one. They were still pummelling each other at the end of the round but Flowers heard the bell first and ran to his corner. Greb didn't hear the gong and started after him: In the ninth round Greb was seen to be spitting blood. Flowers had opened a cur over his eye, too. In the seventh round Flowers gave Greb a little bit of his own wrestling medicine. It was unintentional, however, and Greb went to the floor. Flowers, true sport, that he was stooped down to help him up. The crowd cheered, for the dirty tactics of the Pittsburgh fighter, who was continuously wrestling, using his hands illegally and clinching, were not lost on the Thru The Ropes In the thirteenth round Greb wrestled Tiger Flowers and nearly pushed him through the ropes. The Tiger Flowers again broke blood flowed from Greb's eye. In the fourteenth round both fighters fought after the gong had sounded. Greb and Tiger were strenuous efforts to get them apart. Very little fighting was done in the 15th round. Greb clinched continuously and kept the Tiger on the Quarter Of A Pound Flowers had a quarter of a pound advantage in weight.

How much notice ought an amateur club manager give the manager of an opposing team with whom he has a game scheduled? This is the question that comes to the APRO Sporting Editor this week from the manager of the Piedmont Tigers. According to the Piedmont boss, the Tigers had a game scheduled with the Wilson Park Giants for August 15th, Sunday. Five days in advance the Tiger boss wrote to the Giants manager that his team would be unable to keep the date. Wilson Park Giants are said to have written back declaring that this was not sufficient notice, and that the game was therefore forfeited to Wilson Park Giants are said to have written back declaring that this was sufficient notice, and that the game was therefore tolled to Wilson.

WILLS BOXES BOSTAN, Mass.—(By Telegram)—Harry Wills met Jeff Clarke in a four round exhibition Tuesday night at the Sons and showed usual prowess as the logical contender for the title. Jack Townsend of South End Boston without Carl Carter, New York, heave weight, in a slow and uninteresting bout. Dark Glou, of Holyoke, beat Silva of New Bedford, in a fast and furious bouncing seventh of a circle. Fans gave Will a great ovation.

Call Vernon 6016 ORT Rain played havoc with baseball games last week. The Bacharachs were unable to play any of their schedule three games, and Wednesday, and the Lincoln Giants were unable to play their Saturday's game with the Senators. The Brooklyn Giants make their first appearance of the season in Atlantic City where they play the St. Monica Giants Wednesday and Thursday of this week. Tuesday the Bacharachs will play Hildale. Lundy says Dallaril is sitting nicely into his outfield combination. He has also signed Joe Lewis, former Black Sox and Hildale catcher. Pitcher Williams, of the Young Pledmont Tigers, let the St. Monica down Sunday with three hits and two runs. The St. Monica failed to score until the eighth inning. The Atlantic City Bacharach Giants sassed South Philcophere something terrible last week, defeating them in a baseball game, 11 to 0. Ambrose Reed, regular Bacharach left fielder, pitched out and the Infield played outfield and vice versa. The Colonials, white, of New York, defeated the Brooklyn Royals, 4 to 1. Sunday, and had them shut out 2 to 10 in the second game until the ninth inning. The Royals rushed three runs and won the game. Bucharach Giants won both of the two game series from the Cuban Stars last week. Rats Henderson, the peer of all Negro League pitchers, pitched 10 runs, over the irresistible Dihigo, the most formidable all-round ball player of the age. While the fiveminute Grier, the undisputed first baseman of West, blanked the Stars, 3 to 6. The two games were characterized by the brilliant fielding of both clubs and by the skill of Lundy, Rails and Geler, Chacon and Oms featured for the Cubans. Jones ought a wonderful game. He caught four of our times by catching four fly balls. Dhiho is the greatest player in organized baseball in the country, accountant and manager, who accompanied the team to Baltimore, Sunday. Dhiho is not only a great pitcher, but he plays any position on the team. Pompey says, and plays it well. This was amply illustrated Sunday. He played first base, later changed to second base, and caught catch and caused the fans to howl with applause, but he went into the pitcher's box in the second game, but the Sox down with a trio of runs. In Monday's game in Richmond he played third base. Besides pitching in the second game, Sunday, he knocked two home runs. Every day we are not playing league games, we are playing with other professional teams in Pennsylvania. We are not squabbling and no trouble about discipline on our club. Not a single member of the team drinks and there are one, the center fielder, who smokes. "When we come to a hotel there is no standing around the bar and on the field there are no quirrels or arrows." Pompez paid his respects, especially to newsman reports that, after Bolden, the Eastern League Commission, was responsible for the fact that teams backed down on their schedule, to Mr. Bolden, "says Pompez, 'it is made by all the commissioners and the fault belongs to all of us if any of the teams fail.'" Pompez and his team will go back to Cuba during the winter for cold weather baseball. Pompez is in the winter league hurt a baseball player. Pompez said it probably affected the pitchers but he didn't think it affected the other men. Still there is nothing else for a baseball player to do. He can earn from his $175 to $350 in the Eastern league during the baseball season in winter. Pompez plays he plays winter ball he has to take a laboring job in the winter time. Professional ranks will prefer to play baseball in winter than do anything else. Besides he can make from $400 to $450 a month in Cuba playing baseball. Pompez will be the required number of games and undoubtedly con the pennant. He expects to meet the Kansas City Monarchs, the Eastern League, for the world's championship. Dihigo is over six feet tall, dark and is as quick as a cat. He handles a baseball bat with as much ease as an ordinary man handles a cane. His first home run in the third inning was a ground ball in a field stand was just over the barrier and P. Johnson leaned over the fence, and C. Johnson coming within a few feet of the ball. The Piedmont Tigers put one more on their string by defeating the Washington Orlando 6 to 3 and securing a game, was called at the buzzer, of the second inning with the Tigers leading 6 to 2, after a down, 1 out of rain. Greer struck out 2 atters and allowed 4 hits. LOOK OUT FOR THE BAT FELLO We have pants that we for your money. Our good reputation our customers all over that our pants are what to be. Pants $2 up.

Jackson the new second baseman made a favorable impression on the Sox last in the Harrisburg line-up. MCCLURE HELD DIHIGO HITLESS McClure, Sox pitcher, held the Cubans to three hits in the first game, Sunday and shut them out without a run, the effectiveness of McClure can be seen in the fact that he held Dihigo, Cuban star battier, hitter, and in the ninth inning with two down and a runner on third, struck hitter, Dihigo. In the first inning, McClure shot him a ball. The second was a strike, called. Dihigo hit the third for a fly out to left field.

In the season of the done seems to warrant Memphis to win the championship honors of the last half of the season and the opportunity to play Birmingham with a win. With a win at home, Memphis chances seem better especially when it is considered that the Red Sox have disposed of Birmingham and that a playoff game is considered a stumbling block. This done, however, like a tentative schedule, is subject to change. Albany is playing a great game and is holding in up fashion and the hurdles in fine shape. For this reason, the chances of the Albany Giants cannot be minimized. Then, too, there is always a possibility of a supposedly weaker team coming and spelling things for the stronger. Memphis will mean the loss of the leadership, providing Albany or New Orleans is victorious at the same time.

BRANDS LEVIN STATEMENT AS WHOLLY FALSE Milton Altfeld Denies He Ever Favored Any Jim Crow Legislation He Tells Audience Legislature's Journal Shows How Striking back with both lists, Milton Altfeld, Democratic candidate for state Senate in the Fourth District, not only branded as false the statement said to have come from Levin that he had favored legislation hostile to colored people, but also accused him of double dealing by telling white audiences one thing and colored another. 8895: "State Senator Harry Levin favors segregation bill and jim crow laws and that he audiences that he does, but any matter in the white newsroom Before colored audiences he makes a different tune. The registration books, Mr. Altfield said, more years ago show that Levin was a Democratic executive of the Thirteenth Ward, changed his politics when the Fourteenth and Seventeenth Wards were under the District." Accusation False Mr. Altfeld branded as false the statements by Levin that he took part in any hostile legislation the colored man had against a member of the colored man's membership in 1914. On various legislation and obtained large appropriations for the different prinstitutions as the will show. In his interview, Mr. Altfeld said he reported that Levin's campaign for re-election had nizzled and that Levin was ready to throw his sponge. Levin also advised that he came to Levin for him to step down as the fact that he was a Democratic executive three years had become known and that his views belong to the colored man precluded his "The colored man is going to get what he has wanted for many years and that is a million dollar municipal hospital if I am elected," said Mr. Alfiefd. "The State and city commission is pledged to it. The Commission has been appointed to work on the plan, the commission is being made candidate, Levin, to throw up a smokecenter, Levin and his campaign manager, Marse Calloway, have hosted that they could fool the colored votes and make him forget the hospital sue. My election will have that the colored man will have a friend at court and that the hospital will be "As I have said before, the Negro is no longer a slave to a party label. He is not going to be led blindfolded by fakirs and hypocrites. He will not longer see all that I am mess of colors. All that I ask is that the colored man inquire how colored lawyers have been treated by me in the States."

The delegates were in the assembly of the Y. M. C. office where a large crowd of the leading women of the Republican Club assembled for the purpose of mapping out plans for the coming primary. Refutes Afo Story Senator Harry O. Levin, who is up for re-election, was the principal speaker at the meeting. Mr. Levin that, "The article in the Afo RI that charged that he charged E. Milton Alfeld with voting for a segregation bill in the legislature of 1914 was not written as the facts in the case shows. He declared that he ordained and authorized that E. Milton Alfeld did for the measure and that Mr. Alfeld was a member of the judiciary committee that handled the bill referred to. Favors Enlerson Those who were present at the meeting voiced their, disapproval of the fight which is being made against Walter S. Emerson, who is opposed by E. Everett Lane for executive of the Fourteenth Ward, and openly declared that the "fight was not a between Emerson and Anderson but a final analysis of the fight between regular Reporter and organization of the ward in a few disgruntled people."

PENDLETON AND TARTER IN BAY SWIM SUNDAY Clarence Pendleton and Charles Tarter are scheduled to start on their Bay swim Saturday or Sunday, depending on weather conditions, according to announcements. They expect to go about 6:20 a.m. to finish before the hottest part of the day. They had planned at first to start their long grind from the Recreation pier at the foot of Broadway, a point just 15 miles from Brown's Grove their finishing point. But as a start from the pier would take them across the water to their truffle, he decided to start from Fort McHenry, which will cut the distance to 14 miles. The swim is attracting a great deal of attention, as it is the first attempt of any one of the group at the Bay. If this try is successful, says Pendleton, he will stage a contest from Kent Island to Highland Beach.

"Under ordinary circumstances I ignore letters of this kind. However, as Vice Chairman and Treasurer of the Republican State Central Committee since 1921, I feel it my duty to reply to that portion of your letter in which you state that you "Have worked for many years for the upbuilding of the Republican party in the State." I am in an official position to know who has borne the burden of the party campaigns in that period, as well as of those who have either shirked their party responsibility, or who have not loyally supported our party candidates. "If you did anything in the 1921 State campaign, I certainly can find no record of it. "In 1922 you wanted to enter the Senatorial primary as a candidate against Senator France. You used every effort to secure the support of Senator Weller in a fight for nomination against Senator France, but Senator Weller declined to support you or any other candidate against Senator France, or to take any part in such a primary. That is the only reason you did not enter against Senator France. If you did anything to aid Senator France in that primary or in the general election of that year, except where your own election for Congress was concerned, I do not know of it. "When Senator Weller secured control of the Baltimore City Republican Committee in September, 1923, when Alexander Armstrong was our candidate for Governor, Senator Weller and Mr. Tait strongly urged you to accept the Chairmanship of this Committee as a party duty. This you refused to do. During this campaign I solicited you for a contribution. You told me to come to your office to discuss this matter with you. You made several such appointments with me, all of which you broke. So far as I am aware, you gave nothing in that campaign to the State Committee. The only thing that I know you did in that campaign was to give an interview to the newspapers, which was in effect an endorsement of Governor Ritchie, and which contained a veiled request to your Republican co-workers to vote for Mr. Ritchie and against Mr. Armstrong for Governor. "In 1924 you made no contribution toward the election of President Coolidge. That same year in Frederick County your representative and supporter, Reno S. Harp, did all in his power to defeat your associate in Congress, Honorable F. N. Zihlman, and to elect his Democratic opponent, David C. Winebrenner. "In 1925 there was no election. "It is not necessary for me to comment on your attitude in the present preliminary campaign of 1926, when you have refused the request of the Republican leaders in your Congressional District to run for Congress, and are making a primary fight for the nomination for the Senate, against the judgment and advice of your friends and well-wishers, and which is clearly against the interests of the Republican party in the vitally important election this year in Maryland." --- THREE COUPLES SEEK MARITAL FREEDOM Two Men And One Woman Want.
