McGUINN AND EMERSON WIN IN PRIMARY MCGUINN LEADS IN 4TH DIST. PRIMARY Walter S. Emerson Wins With Slight Lead Over Robert Young DANIEL ELLISON IS WHITE RUNNING MATE Leaders Expect United Republian Support To Put Over Ticket In May Warner T. McGuinn, Daniel Ellison, white, and Walter S. Emerson won out Tuesday in a hotly contested Republican primary for Fourth District candidates for the city council. Complete returns give McGuinn a lead of 202 over Ellison and places him at the head of the ticket. For some time there was doubt as to the votes of Robert Young and Walter S. Emerson, but tabulations show the latter to be in the lead by about 10 votes. Predict Election Both white and colored leaders predict election of the Fourth District candidates in the general election. Charles Main, Chairman of the City committee, says the organization will give its full support to the election of the three men chosen in the primary. Some of the leaders, however, fear that the white Republicans in the 14th and 13th Wards, will not go down the line for the race candidates. As in the past the race voters are expected to support Daniel Ellison. Analyses of the primary vote, however, are not too assuming. In the 14th Ward, principally white, Ellison polled 520 votes while McGuinn and Emerson polled 176 and 189, respectively. When you go over to the 14th and 17th principally colored wards, you find more harmony. Ellison received 168 votes. This shows that the "co-operation" in the white wards to be at the ratio of about three to one, while in the colored ward it is two to one. There is also more likelihood that some combinations between Democrat and Republican candidates be made in the general election. But if they are according to Hoyle's according to the leaders, the ticket should win. Makes Statement "Considering the fact, that this was my first bow to the public, I am highly satisfied with my showing." Dr. James A. White, told the Afro-American. J. Howard Parne, who conducted an independent fight, stated that he reasoned the votes given him as highly complimentary and endorsed of his personal standing in the community. "I will get behind the ticket as nominated." he said, "and believe that it will be put over in the general election." Warner T. McGuinn, gave out the following statement Wednesday. "I am extremely gratified, of course, at the results of the primary election. I take the opportunity for sincere thanks to the men and women who supported my candidacy and aided in my nomination. I shall wage a vigorous campaign for the election of the entire Republican ticket including myself. I hope that our group will obtain representation in the City Council as the result of the election on May 3rd. A McGuinn And Ellison Supporter In a statement, Marse S. Callaway, said: "The present primary has proved that a party vote can be successfully built up within the ranks, and I pledge my support solidly behind the nominees and expect them to win."

ATTEMPTS ESCAPE FROM HOSP. THERE Acting Queerly, He Powdered And Kissed Thompson Publicly ST. LOUIS, Mo., (A.N.P.) —Aaron E. Malone, husband of Mrs. Anna M. Malone, founder and owner of Poro College, created a furore of excitement in the semi-exclusive Cook Avenue district about ten o'clock last Saturday night when he leaped through the second story window of 4212 "W" Cook avenue, and ran screaming into the darkness. His friends, who it is said, for sometime have regarded his mental condition as below par and bordering perhaps on definite insanity, have been watching him closely, but he became suddenly violent Saturday evening, suffering from a hallucination that someone was try-king him. Selecting a moment when no one was watching him, he jumped for the window which was closed, smashing the street below, carrying the entire sash with him. He was not seriously injured, the curtain on the window shielding him from cuts from the broken glass. Gaining his feet, he ran down the street, carrying "Murder, police" they are trying to kidnap me. Don't let them etangle lawyers on me, he would shout. "Forstell will ruin me if they change lawyers." Porstell is his white attorney. The war was thrown into a turmoil as citizens rushed from their homes, but it was several hours later before they were able to find Malone, the police, headed by Rev. George Crawford, the captain and area-takers, looking behind garbage cans and through cellars. He was finally found on Page avenue, where he had attempted to secrete himself in the home of a white family who heard him prowling about, called the police. Released From Hospital He was taken by the police to the colored city infirmary. People's Hospital immediately steps to gain charge of him, and the hospital authorities released him about 2 a.m. to Dr. O. S. McClelland, a local colored physician. Malone was returned to the house from which he had made his specimen, and the hospital officials had Mrs. Robert Jackson, close friends of the unfortunate man, with whom he had been living, most of the time since he left Poro College, and this has been linked in much speculation by the St. Louis public. Prof. Jackson, despite Malone's highly nervous condition and pitiable state, expressed himself as being uninterested in the question of property on which Malone might have been held for examination. Shortly after returning to the hospital, he joined the team and again and fearlessly that the Missouri authorities might detain him for observation, his friends and lawyers spirited him over the state line to East St. Louis, where he was sent to Catholic institution, and it is reported that they were compelled to strap him to a cot for the rest of Sunday in order to quiet his nerves. Mr. Malone's friends have been reporting oddities in his actions for some time. When the Urban League met here last week, one of the delegates, Noah H. D. Thompson, formerly of Los Angeles, now is the vice president of the Magazine", New York, called on him, and Mr. Malone took a towel and some powder and powdered Mr. Thompson's face copiously, in a kiss of the League in the People's Finance Building and seeing Mr. Thompson seated there rushed up to him and kissed him resoundingly, much to Mr. Thompson's embarrassment. The city for several days, and it was impossible to reach her for a statement on the situation. It is predicted in some quarters that Malone's attorneys will set aside the condemnation of the hearing scheduled for the 11th of April. Mrs. Malone Away If this happens, it is said Mrs. Malone will hypothetically demand that the receiver be removed and she permitted to conduct her business without restriction, pending the divorce proceedings.

Fraterrites And Sororites It is expected that the fraternity and the sororites there has been slight suspicion that fraternities are sororites at Howard University has been somewhat destructive. The mode of the institution. It has so been hinted that fraternities played a part in the showing of the football team in former years. Evidently, these sororites not need to be further fashioned that settling afternoon when the Howard University opens wide its gates to the sons and daughters of all colored people, regardless of occupation. The only lines drawn at Howard are on qualifications and character. It is the colored people's largest university in the country accredited standing. No one will raise a complaint against this worthy institution. Its service to the race is unquestionably well established. No true friend to racial progress will withhold the ONE DOLLAR sought. Of U.S. Howard University is not a part of the federal government. The reader is constantly asked to respond mindfully. It does receive funds yearly as a gratuity from the federal government, but there is no positive assurance of the institution's there is option to this practice. It will not be surprising if at any time Congress takes a notion to withhold the appropriations. Overseas, it may be difficult to spell Howard's discontinuity virtually one, inasmuch as already one voice in the lower chamber raises yearly the deadly point of order. That debate will be a difficult one, this sound, and Howard University's predestination will be indesirable. Why wait for that fatal day? Too Precious Secessionary leaders for calamities in the light of menacing possibilities. It is an unwarrantable risk to wait for the catastrophe and then seek ways and means to counter it. It is an unwarrantable precious a heritage to neglect; it then reckless indifference or unpermitted confidence. All that the writer asks is that Howard's endowment be placed outside the dinner zone by a substantial endowment that will guarantee its perpetuity. Such an endowment is easily procurable if the colored people on OCEA so with just ONE OCEA Appeal To Wallet This appeal to the wallet fades into insignificance in comparison with the appeal to race pride in race. Why does the appeal to race pride in race matter? Why does another race to hand out a gratitude that is possible and most becoming for the recipients themselves to offer? The endowment of Howard University were beyond the reach of Nebraska endeavor, can be reached when one realizes that by making a negligible contribution of ONE DOLLAR, the endowment of Howard University people ought to welcome the opportunity to support Howard University. A dime a day for ten days will do the trick. Logic Liners Logic liners in the oft-repeated declaration that Congress owes a United States America believe this, but the logic may falter when it undertakes to prove that the dischance of the dollar is not any particular institution of learning for the payment. From many points of view, it looks as though the colored man takes advantage of the support of Howard University. NO BRIAR No briar contribution is sought in this unique campaign — only ONE DOLLAR from each contributor. Such a reasonable appeal should not embarrass anybody's pockettock or offend his vanity. It should release "olars with such cheerful rapidity, amy sense of joy ought to groan over the weight." Here is an opportunity for genuine leaders to desert their cloisters for an enterprise that is of universal importance and profit. The writer is inclined to think apologetically that too often leaders are thus labeled because they are foremost in running after something for them- No Lime-light This simple proposition is not go- wing to furnish any chance for individ- ual fame and fortune.

It will also be a monument to Negro ingenuity, thrift, and unselfishness. The Widow's Mite Continued on Galley 11. Widow's Mite The least preroworth motive for contributing to any campaign is self-advertisement. This plan of campaigning reminds all symptoms of self-esteem of the widow, who lives years thousands but merely the widow's mite. It is the least burdensome and least conspicuous way to raise an endowment fund for Howard University. Co-operation Response by the Howard students themselves is most gratifying. The educational school contributed ONE DOLLAR a piece. This wartime example will surely be remembered in classes throughout the university. Every student in Howard University will surely give ONE DOLLAR a wartime lesson. Any indifference on the part of officer, professor or student will most embarrassing to the campus.

COUNSEL AID THE DEFENDANTS Five Owners Must Move Unless Decision Is Reversed WASHINGTON, D. C. Covenants restricting the ownership and occupancy of property to white person were again upheld in the District Supreme Court when Justice Wendell P. Stafford indicated last Monday that he would grant mandatory injunctions compelling Henry A. Cornish and Alyce N. Cornish, 2328 First street northwest, and Maggie Davis and Amanda Butler, 141 Adams street, northwest, to vacate their residences. APPEAL Attorneys George E. C. Hayes and Ernest J. Davis, representing these defendants noted an appeal to the Court of Appeals and offered to give a superseadales bond, which would suspend the operation of the injunction until the appellate court can pass on the question. This offer was opposed by counsel for the white property owners who brought tus tindajetty owners who brought suit, and this matter will be argued at a later date. N A A. C. P. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has become interested in the defense of these cases which were advanced for hearing, and William E. Leahy, former United States attorney for the district of Columbia, has been appointed associate defense counsel. These cases will probably end in the United States Supreme Court.

He said that other respect did not be showing the proper respect for the higher tribunal. There are three other cases involving the purchase of property by ordered public property. In finding District Supreme Court, they will probably be controlled by the decision in these two cases. OTHER PURCHASERS February 24, 1922 1922 Elder school 20 Adams street, northwest.

LOUIS, MO—How the problems in northern cities are meeting the problems of racial contact in housing was one of the national issues discussed at the National Urban League Conference, last week. "The Negro Life northern community, who lives in a white neighborhood, is a session member of America's race problem," declared George W. Thomas, Executive Secretary of the Akron, Ohio Urban League, at a session Tuesday morning of the League. "Although objections are usually made when he moves into what is characterized as a white neighborhood, as is the case in other cities, objections are soon forgotten and the black man becomes just merely a good neighbor, and sometimes, is actually encouraged to remain in the city." Study Death Rates Speaking on the two to one death rate for colored and white infants in Atlanta, G. Alonzo C. Thaver, the group's president, need of that city is "mental health." The large proportion of sickness and deaths among Atlanta Negroes is due to lack of recreation facilities and the lack of employment. He declared Atlanta owned 24 public parks and had turned over but one, the smallest to the Negro. The Atlanta City Council recently passed a bill that would require sent-skilled labor should be paid a minimum of $100 a month, but took no action to increase the pay of Negroes employed by the Atlanta Negroes. It further discouraged Thayer said, by being barred from the polls and by mistreatment in the Courts. 7 COUPLES WED AT ROCKVILLE ROCKVILLE, Md.-Marriage licenses for the month of March issued at Rockville area: Brown, Washington, D.

E. MILLER QUOTES INTERVIEW WITH TEDDY Turbulent Reconstruction Days In South Carolina Are Recalled follows Spring S. W. Willingham Bucha L. Bro Waters Va. I. H. Vauls el. M. T. V. S. A. Staunt D. M. Scot Beverw M. J. Cor SHOW Recalling the turbulent reconstruction days in South Carolina with his picturesque silvery gray hair and sparkling fighting eyes, Thomas E. Miller, one time Congressman from the Palmetto state, extolled Christianity as the greatest force the world had ever seen in a Men's Day address at Grace Presbyterian Church, Sunday. Relating a conversation with the late President Theodore Roosevelt, Mr. Miller quoted him as saying, regarding President Douglas. Abraham Lincoln and Patrick Henry, as the three greatest American orators, Mr. Roosevelt said the Douglas autobiography will remain for all time the country's greatest slave text Taking as his subject: "Why I am a Christian", ex- congressman Miller analyzed the virtues of Confucianism, which he traced the history and development of Christianity, declaring that it had done most, especially in raising the moral and civic level and promoting human happiness. Recalls Turbulent Career The presence of Thomas E. Miller in Baltimore recalls one of the most striving chapters of his career. Graduating from Lincoln University in 1872, he began his political career in South Carolina and was a member of the construction era which fought to retain the franchise for Negro voters. Contemporaries with him in those stirring times were Joseph H. Rainey, for five terms Congressman who sat two terms; and Robert C. Delarge, and Robert B. Elliott, two; Robert Small, five; and George W. Murray, the last man to go to Congress, two. He was a prominent citizen in the National Congress from South Carolina were Negroes. It is probably due to Thomas E. Miller, more than to any other one of the Congressmen. State College was placed on a high curricula as well as received large finances from the state. White politicians in that state sought to give him everything he wanted, and the president of the university mainly to get him out of the political arena. RACE CONGRESS IN SESSION WASHINGTON, D.

BISHOP BROOKS SEIZED AS HE REACHED HOME Baltimore Prelate In West Africa Enroute To See Sick Wife SILLY MISSIONARY IS THOT TO BLAME Consul General Here Recalls Arrest Of Other Bishops Bishop W. Sampson Brooks, of Baltimore, was very probably arrested as soon as he set foot on the shore of Monrovia, Liberia, West Africa. Announcement of the bishop's arrest was announced in the AFRO exclusively last week. Subsequently, a letter received at the AFRO from Bishop Brooks and dated from Freetown, Sierra Leone, dated March 15, 1927, announced Bishop Brooks' arrival there from the United States where he intended to hold his first annual conference. The letter also announced that the had just received news that Mrs. Brooks is quite ill in Liberia. Before I reach her," the letter said. The bishop was arrested March 28, 13 days after his letter to the AFRO, and very probably as soon as he set foot on Liberian soil from Sierra The original cablegraph from Bishop Brooks' secretary read as follows: "I am the secretary of the bureau, March 29 4 p. m. To the Afro-American, Brooks under arrest since yesterday. Seized without trial on false charges debt. (Signed) Lorem ipsum." By an error of transmittal in a duplicate cablegraph to Secretary E. H. Colt, of the Foreign Missionary Department of the A. M. E. Church, the United States, we used instead of arrested. It is clearly evident, however, that the word "arrived" makes no sense in this telegram, only upon receipt of this cable, the AFRO asked the U. S. State Department in Washington to make an investigation and cabled Bishop Brooks' secretary for further detention. Liberman Consult. at Surprised Dr. Ernest Lyman. Liberman Consult. here, was not surprised by the arrest of Bishop Brooks. "It is probably the work of one of Bishop Brooks' dissatisfied missionaries," said Dr. Lyon, "and not the work of the Liberman or the Liberman government." "Liberia has an old English law which permits us to be the creditor to pay the board and lodging of the prisoner while he is confined." Dr. Lvon said, "a Liberian policeman came into the U. E. Embassy to arrest Bishop I. B. Secte. of an alleged creditor. "I put the man out, because Liberia has no business on American soil." $750,000 For N. Y. Y. M. C. A. NEW YORK—The Y. M. C.

CATO ELKS' BANDS RESERVATIONS NOW—WRITE TO 514 SOUTH 15th STREET A-16 DR. GRIMKE WASHINGTON. D. C. — Despite the fact that Clarence Darrow is a great lawyer, a man of brains and a tried friend of the Negro race, he is not a leader for us to follow, according to the Rev. Francis J. Grimke, pastor of 15th Street Presbyterian Church, in a pamphlet issued today. "Mr. Darrow," says Dr. Grimke, "has rendered valuable service to the race in the fight which it is making for full recognition of its rights under the Constitution, for which I honor him. "A man who is Dr. in doubt as to God and of future life, who makes light of the Bible and scoffs at religion, can hardly be called a safe leader. "Though he may ably defend our political and civil rights if he defends the Constitution in God and in the Bible, the good he does is more than overbalanced by the evil which he does. "I must choose between my political and civil rights and my faith in God and the Bible, my civil and political rights will have to go." Talk Fellowship And Equality At Friends' Meeting PHILADELPHIA, PA. "Until we whites learn the spirit of fellowship and equality, we cannot produce or support a society so seasal as J. Jones in discussing the Negro question at the Friends' Meeting at Arch Street Meeting House, Tuesday.

Scattergood, white scout of the officers of the church, and her unwillingly colored people bu' houses in the same street and Walter W. Glaivian called attention to the difference between a patronizing and brotherly attitude. Negro, he brought through our prejudice and place others on the same platform on which we stand ourselves. Frederick, a family of England, covered himself in being struck with the absence of colored people from the Friends' Meeting in America.

In November, 1924, I began taking奈洛普 which relieved my cough and bronchitis. By February my cough and asthma were entirely gone. Now (March 18, 1925) I have written to my coach, and an interview with February my cough and asthma were at all.

He was radical for he knew that the world could not be built in a day. Warns Against Jazz Warning against the jazz age which threatened 'black and white' music alike, your spirituals but not your jazz; your faith but not your superstition. Let your humor remain as a fountain of innocent joy rather than the violence of the school and the church retain your fealty rather than the cabaret. Let the rhythm of your souls be the music of the spheres and not the town. H. L. Menken, crit and editor of the American Mercury, is the high priest of the cult of smartness who charged him with the commander-in-chief of the campaign being waged against the homely virtue. Dr. Mins finds Dr. Alain Lockdr. from whose volume, 'The New Negro', he quoted frequently a "well balanced interpreter of social and intellectual rightly divides the word of truth between reactionaries and radicals.'

A few week's residence on the Western Shores of Maryland were enough to make plain the futility of attempting to do health work in widely separated localities and over bad roads, in less than two months. The Institute program has been extended in its scope and in the territory covered each year until this year, all the vital points necessary for healthy farm life have been included. The territory covered reaches from Washington to Chesapeake Bay. The following communities have taken part: Clinton, Camp Springs T. B., Waldorf, Bryantown, Malcolm, Dentville, Lonesville, Hollywood, Medleys Neck, Compton, Great Mills, Jaboescos, Pearson, Oakville Milestown, Bushwood, Morgana Charlotte Hall, Mechanicsville, Silver Spring, Abelis, Fermontville, California, Clarkeville, Clarkeville, Ridge Scotland, Newtown. Twelve Meetings During February and March the Institute has personally conducted meetings in twelve centrally located communities in Charleston and St. Mary's in North Carolina andides meetings at the Institute itself. The Bushwood meeting had the largest attendance, with over one hundred and fifty persons present. 700 Visited Approximately seven hundred farm people have been personally reached through these meetings and the total number of families actually working for improved conditions this year will exceed one thousand. The special points worked on this year, were improved sanitary arrangements, better kitchens, clean wells and a kitchen garden for every farm. The interest displayed by the communities was far beyond anything anticipated. The final meeting to which all workers are invited will be held at the Institute, April 10th, at 2 p. m. Important Speakers Dr. Dickerson, Newport News. Va. John R. Hawkins, Financial Secy of the A. M. E. Church, D. C.; C; The Rev. John L La Farge, N. Y.; Dr. Marie B. Lucas, Washington, D.

Teased; Child Kills Self PHILADELPHIA, PA., (ANP.)- Two brothers, John and Charles Walters, hid their sister's clothes while she was in the bath-room.

Call Vernon 6016 The great dictator of all life, all movement, among the natives, is the Koran. The this fact must be attributed largely to the extreme backwardness and sonor general spasmodic nature. For Koranism is rich in minerals, grain, cattle, sheep, and hides, and the French are developing these and prospering. Here is a book part written, part compiled. Moorism has often for fifteen hundred years, and it is the arbiter of all action, just as if the world had stood still in the meantime. The average Moor is very substitutes, very dirty, very hospitable, very religious. He is a firm believer in dinosons, or dinosaurs, and less the arbiter of the dinosaurs, dead to reside there. No Modern Doctors Modern doctors would starve among them. Again, the Koran is, against all odds, against all ills. The native doctor repeats a verse from this Bible.

SEVEN GRADUATE FROM NIGHT SCHOOL Douglass High Night School Grads Get Diplomas And Credits Seven graduates were handed diplomas by Supervisor Francis M. Wood at the first graduation in the school pupil unit. Douglass High in the auditorium Monday night. The graduates were pupils who had been permitted to complete their regular four year course at the night session. They were awarded diplomas for three years work in the day high schools. This arrangement was made possible by the efforts of Assistant Superintendent of Schools, John Coulbourn. The diploma carries with it the same import as those received by regular day school pupil units. An outstanding feature of the graduation exercises was a unique fashion display in which the work of the class in handicraft was exhibited. Gowns, ranging from the latest creation for evening wear to sport and house models were worn by members of the Children's clothes were also displayed. The speech of the evening was delivered by Supervisor Wood, who substituted for Mr. Coloubour, who due to a previous engagement, was unable to attend. Miss Nicole DeBose pleased with a piano solo and Mrs. Goldie Brown rendered two vocal selections. The exercises were closed with remarks by the principal. Mason A. Hawkins. Those receiving diplomas were Messames, Helene Steward, Zinn Mason Johnson, Miss Celela Haynes, Miss Mabel Turner and Mr. Charles Mitzner. COHEN FIGHTS HERE MONDAY Wilbur Cohen.

ROGERS RABAT, MOROCCO.—This city, north of Casablanca is more characteristically Moroccan, being very old, one may say, twenty or twenty-five centuries, at least a thousand years, before the English-speaking peoples came on the scene. It is, or was a walled town, with richly carved gateways: picturesque stone towers, eaten with time; the ruins of what was once a great mosque (pronounced mos-kay) or church; beautiful gardens; white houses; strangely-clad natives, moving mystically the Arabian Nights; Entertainment come to life. One sees, for instance, many of the great stone jars like that in which Morgiana poured the boiling oil on the Porty Thieves. Sultan is Colbert It is hard to believe Sultan makes his home. I had the good fortune to see him on his way to midday service. Enough to say that in the South he would have to do much explaining to keep out of the Jim- White And Black white. This much is settled with me: the racial composition of these people, who were at one time the leading power in Europe. They are what we call in America, mulatto. Many undoubtedly are in others, and the deepest shade of black. This mixing has been going on for thousands of years. The present Sultan is only a figure-head, like one press president. The French governor, Marechal Lautrey, and this is his headquarters. Four Wives Only Polynany prevails and harms abound. The Loran, or native Bible permits only four wives, but, I am told, that cach keeps as many wives as the chief expenditure. Furniture in an Arab home is almost absent. The color of these wives is from white to black, or vice versa, which is no color-line, even in the French quarter, where natives, of all colors, may be seen, in the best cafes, quite unlike, the treatment accorded the British (British). I have read in British government reports. Concubines In addition to wires there are conubies as in Southern States, and if a slave-woman, white or black, has a child for the master, it shares equally with the legitimate ones, and is the same political and social privilige as in the Bible days. Jacob's children, by the slaves of his two wives, helped to form the Twelve Tribes. The last Sultan, it will be recalled, had some three hundred wives, which proved so many white elephants on his hand, when he was ousted. **Marry At 12 Years** Women marry at twelve, which is also the age of consent in one or two Southern States, of one Virginia is one year, and he twenty-five most of their remarkable beauty of face and figure is gone. Still, in the case of a god many of the women this makes little difference in the women stout within, all look like so many walk-in barrels, from the neck downwards. All Clothes Swathed in white garments, which seemed to be puffed out somewhere in the middle, one sees only their kohl-stained eyes, and part blackened, part crimsoned heels, sans stockings. The competition between woman and woman is a matter of age and dress is reduced to its minimum. Woman's styles haven't changed since the days of Mary Macdalene. Women Quarrel Amor--Themselves When I expressed my surprise at polygamy to an Arab, telling him that it was about all that many Americans could do to get along with one wife, he said all that was where Westeros all were wrong for having had one wife she quarrelled with him, when he had several they quarrelled among themselves. The poorer mothers carry their children tied to their backs, Indian fashion. I saw one woman with three, one at her back another seated around her, one in the back, one was seated a third as she walked along. Ber Possum certainly had nothing on her. Domestic Slavery Slavery, domestic slavery, still exists, although the sale of slaves is no longer permitted in the market. Slavery I understand it is, a sort of refuge for some of the very poor, just as Englishmen, Germans, and Hollanders used to sell themselves into servitude in the American Colonies. OTHER single factor means so much to the woman of today as does her beauty. It is the easy road to a happy realization of her fondest dream. To be a leader of society, an idol of the stage, a sweetheart, a wife, or an attentive, happy mother. Trim, clean, healthy, glossy hair is the basis of facial beauty, the medallion that frames the picture. Without it one cannot hope to best display their charming skin, their beauty-kissed complexion.

Pain in the chest one is also likely to get a verse wallop in that region; for a backache, the doctor walks over you; for a toothache he spits on the tooth; and for other illnesses, the scraping of the ear. One sees to the full, the truth of Marx' saying: "Religion is the opium of the people." Jews Are Hated The only race prejudice is against the Jew, who both native and French, will tell you are dirtier than the Arab. If not dirtier than the Arab, the Jews are certainly no cleaner, and just as full of sores. Nevertheless, the Jews are great business people, who are accustomed, a fact to which must be attributed, much of the feeling against them. The majority are as dark or darker than mulattoes, and live in a quarter called the Mellah. PICK FREDERICK ROAD FOR FIRST CAMP SITE PICK FREDERICK ROAD FOR FIRST CAMP SITE Plot Between Braddock Heights And Frederick Selected By Commission TO HAVE EQUIPMENT AND D. C. BUS LINE able Arise A plot on the Frederick road, between Frederick and Braddock Heights, has been selected for the first camp site, according to announcement made this week by Bryn Siford and Gobert E. Maebeth who led the promotion for this project. The selection of this site followed considerable investigation and suggestions for motorists throughout the state and is said to be an ideal one. The place will serve not only as an excellent tourist camp, which is said to be in one of the healthiest sections of the park, but also most widely used pikes, but is also expected to become a recreational center for this section. The state road commission has assured Messrs. Stafford and Mabbeh of the road will be maintained and will adequately be maintained by the commission. This successful effort ends the fight for camp site facilities for colored people, which began nearly a decade ago and are refused admission to a camp at Frederick. The AFRO-AMERICAN and a number of individuals took up the matter, and under the direction of Irving Stafford, the commission, E. Mabbeh, the matter was recently pushed and the camp site granted. Credit is also due Senator John L. Meyers for efforts exerted in behalf of the project. Have Bus Line May have bus Plans also be also worked out by Washington promoters to run a bus line to this camp during the summer season. Hung On Steel Gallows MADISONVILLE.

Situated as it is, in the heart of the city's most thickly populated block and surrounded by crowded houses and the establishment of public bath facilities in the building answers a long-felt need. The reports for the month of March show that 1699 children used the baths. Of this number 855 were boys and 834 were girls. Mr. Turner, a nurse at Harrison, J. are the attendants.

Visit The Eastern "Sho" And See Real Maryland Inhabitants Perfectly Satisfied To Remain Apart And Pity The Rest Of Us Marylanders Who Were Born Else Where By Ralph Matthews Somehow I always had a yearning to wander down on the Eastern Shore. This yearning can be accounted for in many ways. one is I am a dyed in the wool Marylander, and just want to investigate every nook and corner of this old state where I am supposed to whatever it is we sing about. Another reason is that the endearing terms that every native from that section uses in referring to that peninsular on the other side of the Bay, lead to the belief that it was a sort of inopportune man. Managers go when they die. Sunday, I breezed down on the "Eastern Sho." Separated from the rest of us by a bridge less stretch of wettness the shore lives its own life and remains a thing apart. The Baltimore fire had no more effect on Eastern Shore than the eruption of thatount that warranted an honest to goodness Eastern Shoreman is satisfied to be just what he is; and wouldn't give us Baltimoreans a thought if we didn't take our families and invite ourselves down there every summer to eat potatoes and grapefruit and eat potatoes and grape. Yes sir, at harvest time, those acres and acres of fertile farm land seem to hold out their hands beckoning for us to come and enjoy the good things they produce, and we write Aunt Ida or Cousin George or the other and his ourselves in the Eastern Shore where we eat drink and be merry.

Tuesday night, when William Hale Thompson republicans came to Democratic incumbent, with a majority of more than 83,000 votes. Negroes in the Second, Third, and Fourth Wards gave Thompson a plurality of 59,225. The campaign was one of the hardest fought Chicago's history with the two question playing an important part. Thompson's reputation of being friendly disposed toward Negroes was perhaps the cause of the injection of the color question; the eras lost many Negro votes on account of the literature and placards alleged to have been circulated by then appealing to race prejudice. So tense was the situation that a race protest at the state militia officials were urged to be prepared to come to the aid of the prepared to come to the aid of the event trouble started. The day, however, was quiet and in spite of the pre-election efforts of the opposition, spurring of any kind, particularly in the Second, Third and Fourth Wards.

Writer Thinks Councilmanic Fight Was Grand Fizzle Candidates Too Gentlemanly; Voters Were Given No Mud Slinging, Promises, Or Scandals For Their Money WEDNESDAY - CORINE ORIFFIN In- "INTO THE KINGDOM"—No. 1 By Ralph Matthews If we come right out and be fair, we'll have to admit that a political campaign our councillariat will grant a woman "The thief, harsh words, Brother," you will say, but nevertheless they are true. The election is over and every candidate comes out with a message to the beent with. As far as we as voters know, they are all good honest men with the true interest of the people, and they have not enough mud-slinging to make the blame thing interesting. With six whole months of campaigning, we have discovered some kind of a ghost in their opponent's closets to create a racket about, but no, they were a pet without a chance of even uncovering a little bit of dirt on each other just to give us voters something to gossip about. We have not considered in this campaign at all. If there is anything that puts a candidate in solid with the voting public, we call his opponent a liar about something whether he is or not.

But did they raise any questions? How would we worked up about? Not nary a issue. No Reasons Then what reasons did they give us what we should do for one or another? None of them over.

His work as a drum soloist, and the driest manipulators won great applause at the minstrel shows at the prison; and brought hundreds of letters and telegraphs of appreciation to the warden of the prison and to auspices the concert, was broadcast. "The conditions of his parole were terrible," he said, looking. Work has been procured for Wright by a friend as a drummer or in the orchestra or in a roadhouse orchestra.

Dramatic clubs upon director and group. Lack of scenery, stage fixtures and properties were series handicaps which the director, S. Ranohn Edmonds is director. The story relates the history of a wealthy mine owner who went to work in the mines. He escapes and becomes a tramp. In the role of the witty, big hearted tramp, James Williams describes the highest dramatic scenes were a bit weak. Nellie Henry had a true grasp of her character and gained the apposition of her audiences in all the acts. The work of Allen Koger was brilliantly played. This little lass knew what she was to picture as a servant girl and added naturalness and humor to the story. James Williams and Nadine Wellman gave worthwhile interrelations of the foster parents. James Williams, the villa owner, appeared to be poorly cast and detached much from the ensemble. BY WILLIAM (Dick) TAYLOR CLEVELAND—Good shows continue to come this way, writes Dick Tayler of the Globe Theatre, this week. The week. March 14th, Miller's "Desires" turned them away, from the audience. Nuts' a red hot show followed. This show has an opening entirely different from the rest. In the opening Russell Lee appears in a scene, when a new boy appears crying "extra paper." Mr. Lee reads a minstrel in town. At this point he sees the parade come to an end, when a minister upstairs follow. Marshall Rogers and Alex Loveloy work together good. They are comedy kings. Brown and Kennedy are real dancers. Lee and chorus hit with " Moonlight, On The Ganges." Other members are Datsy Wright, "Race Horse" Mamie Smith, Peig and Peg and "Hard Tack" Jack-Colman, M. Church, G. Richardson, D. Moore, Joan D' Arc and Glenie Thompson. How many runs for 1 hour 45 minutes, is well costumed and sceleried.

SPINACH"—2-Act Comedy BUTTERBEANS AND SUSIE NEXT WEEK PICTURES IN THEATRES "Kosher Kitty Kelley" CAREY CAREY "Kosher Kitty Kelley" is an Irish-Jewish epic which brings into play all the conflicts and humorous turns in the lives of the two racehorses, a background of a basked fish and a Koshter delicatessens, the Irish race making a bold stand against the invading Jews. While the race war is in full blast the young Irish cop is making love to a Hebrew maid. The cop is forced to arrest the brother of his sweetheart. The picture is a portrayal of the people *l* whom the world has laughed for many years. It is the beauty of humanity deep beneath the ugly outside crust. "Kosher Kitty, Kelley" appears at the Carey on April 11. "The Torrent" Blasco Ibanez, the author of "The Four Horsemen," "Blood And Sand" and numerous other stories which have become screen classics, will have his latest creation, "The Torrent," pictured at the Dunbar April 11th. The photoplay is a Metropolitan-Mayer attraction and deals with passionate love experiences of a Spanish nobleman. It is richly colored with the background of old Spain in contrast with the modern jazz spirit. The glitter of wealth and dulthiness of poverty figure largely in this love tale. "Men Of Steel" In "Men of Steel" Milton Sills is seen as a bit of raw human product working in the ore mines. He the process of refinement developed into a business gentleman. He there is a story of the great mines and steel mills where many men are supposed to work with "strong backs and weak brains." White hot liquid steel, giant cranes and men who strip the skin and yet remain wet with the waist and yet remain wet with some of the scenes in this photolay. There is a dash of love and romance and the hero is one of the mill laborers. Two thousand mill workers participate in the play as extras. Kenyon is co-starred with Silk. Other leading roles are played by May Allison, George Fawcett and Frank Currer. The metropolitan press has unqualifiedly termed "The Trap," Lon Chaney's Universal-Jewel starring feature, which comes from Regen's book of the best piecages of the decade. As Gaspard the Good, who hides beneath a smiling exterior the heart of a wolf, Chaney does some of a most notable work of his career and carries the suspense of the story right up the last leg of his fight with a star-tumbered wolf furnishes the big moment of the play. The story is that of "Gaspard the Good," a trapper in the Canadian northwest, who is "obbed of his mine and his sweetheart by an American promoter. Gaspard then devotes his life to obtaining a slow and torture- ROY 40 PEOPLE 5 CRAC ROYAL Jin BUT 40 PEOPLE WITH THE S CRACKER Octavia Sumler That Streak of Lightning Cra Page Ten some revenge. His vengeance results in the sending of the prospector to prison on a murder charge, drives the girl to her death, and leaves their baby son in Gaspard's charge. He is sent to the waff, but succeeds to the grip of childish fingers and finally risks his life to save the youngster in a terrific battle with a half-starved woe.

Despite the fact that the ensemble has its shortcomings, there are some song and dance tunes that he sums up after they come out of the theatre. Several successful Broadway shows have been written by this author with the help of other musicians. The ladies will draw success to a company. **Diggs And Courtesy** When the Monday matinee ended at 10 p.m., the pleasant face faced man stood at the door and hold if open for the audience to see. A lady comes out with a baby and he hastens to help her with the carriage. Such courtesy in another form of advertising that makes your customers your bosses. **Dud And Pictures** "Uncle Dud" is preaching for colored pictures. Now and then some one might ask, "What is it that often they say he is impractical or foolish. That was what they said about William Fox 25 years ago when he bought a house with a capital of $1600. Fox bought the controlling interest in the Roose the other day for upwards of $100. There is a more personal reason why we should see our own pictures occasionally. In addition to helping the emperor give up having an artistic appreciation of yourself and your arts. When many of our youthful artists are asked to draw a picture to represent our group they draw some white persons. **Sleeping Amateurs** While Wellington, Cleveland and other cities are blossoming out with anatrue dramas and little theatres, conservative old Baltimore Sheeps. The city and its greatest theater is when Hamilton Murray produced the "Love Game." In the same year the Little Whopper won shows of appalachian Gothic musicals of musical comedy and drama. In 1922 the Morgan College Dramatic Club combined with the Imperial Art Payers andAssociates and presented Plymouth Theatre. Since that time Baltimore戏剧家 have contented themselves with doing little worthy of comment. One notable exception is the work of Morgan, who in this which is presented four plays this year. Professionals Awaken The stage profession is showing in Pennsylvania Avenue is parking them in and the balley men are getting concessions at Wonderland Park. The season is also bringing hope and encouragement to people who have been before the footlights and the gasoline torches for a quarter century.

HIGH ROCK GINGER ALE OF ITS COLORED Says Race Men Who Ope HIGH ROCK GINGER ALE CO. LAUDS EFFICIENCY OF ITS COLORED EMPLOYEES Says Race Men Who Operates Machinery Know The High Rock Ginger Ale Company, one of Baltimore's leading bottlers, in an interview today with a representative of the AFRO, highly commended the colored men who operate the machinery which bottles High Rock Beverages. Mr. Pine, manager of the plant, declared that the young colored men in the employ of the company were deserving of much praise for their efficiency, regardless of the price of their Gintary in the country, and the management declared that he would pay $500.00 to anyone who could prove ger Ale, if there were any who used pinger ale. Mr. Pine also used it in High Rock Beverages. When asked as to how many race men were employed by the company, the manager replied that seven young colored men were used in the manufacture of High Rock beverages, that they were experts in the art of bottling. The High Rock Ginger Ale Company is a local concern, and employs all local help. The manager declared that the grower of the plant were open to the public for inspection at all times, and that he wished that more leading men of the race, like Dr. Harold Stepteau, would visit the plant and see just how efficient colored men are at running machinery if given a chance. The writer was carried through every department and shown the method used in protecting the health of the public, by the most modern sanitation.

This section had recently been opened to residents of color, the whites having first before what they were to see. He insisted that they sell the old Etting Street home, and he had consented against his better judgment. He tossed his brief case on the mongahguy but snatched it up. It appeared that he was about to娶 the furniture which was in keeping with the aristocratic locality. "Well, well, what's coming on here?" he demanded looking at the handsome demeanor dining table, "I have to get dressed, dearie, the Hargraves are coming to supper, Dr. and Mrs. J. Pendleton Hargraves. You know, the doctor who married Christian." "What in the devil are they coming here for?" he grunted Leslie. "I don't know, and men don't want to come here." But Leslie, dear, can you see what a help it will be for us socially—there coming here? I invited them more for your sake? "What possible good could old man lorgrove do me unless I was sick, and then I would have to pay him a fortune to attend me, that they are the leaders of Baltham society." Leslie laughed. "Leaders of Baltham society." Say, that's something like a general with an army full of doers. They haven't anything to leave burst into tears.

"Husbands can always see but never on their own wives," Posed by Louise Barraud A fifty while she was hardly a day over twenty-two, the personification of gaiety with a vivacious air that put those with whom she came in contact immediately at their ease, but behind it all there was a twinkle in her eyes that revealed a deep cunning, a sort of lust-a desire-a determination to get what she wanted. Leslie wondered about that couple, as he struggled into his dress suit. Her exquisite beauty, her youth, immediately erased the question as in why the doctor had married her, but why did she, with her charm that could win any man marry the doctor? He was a widower, his life was well spent, but then he had piles of money, accumulated during years of practice as Baltimore's most eminent and skilled physician. I wonder, mused Leslie, but instantly dismissed the thought from his mind. Surely, she was too solicitous of her husband's welfare not to love him. That question kept repeating itself throughout the meal, by he recontinuing reference to the expensive pressure of the jewelry, dresses, a readdress-money; While he conversed on was interesting it was sometimes repelling, especially when he could not have the things she talked about. Leslie found himself bewildered by her personality—such a pleasant person he was not. There was no little happiness at home. Joyce taught school and many was the night that he was forced to eat a meal of chicken and rice to cook. This made him irritate and quarrels ensued. How he hated quarrels! Her was over. The evenings entertainment turned lightly from one thing to another. The doctor and Joyce became engrossed in a rather lengthy discussion on the chair in the room. The art of her inherent tendencies play in his adaptability to classroom work. Leslie tried to realize that the tone was for about him soon found himself discussing the latest movies with Alex. Harvage On this subject Cloe was an adult emotional person. She stores the stories in her journal. Prequent, this New York also kept her abrasive with the latest Broadway plays. She knew the stage to the stage, the theater to the theater, and was on the alert for something new in scented cigarettes, ginger flushes, or new wrinkles in necking parties. Who told Cloe was telling Mr. Kaye of the wonderful rose arbor you have cultivated in your yard. I wonder if it would be asking too much to take a peek at it" she asked during a talk in the conversation. Kaye "It's rather dark to look at roses but you can at least get an idea of what it looks like." Her merry laughter was like that of a real telephone exchange in connection with all departments.

"Isn't it just alluring for words?" she exclaimed admiringly, "and to think you did it all. Little things like this mean so much in married life, little things that you do with your hands. My husband finds it so easy to buy everything that he thinks I want." He never thinks of doing little things like this for me. "In my case," laughed Leslie, "pidding around the yard," "here is one of the few pleasures I get out of my home. You see Joy is home very little." "You are fortunate at that," said Cier a bit dejectedly. "My husband is always too busy to give any attention to me. He puts the lowest patient above his wife. He is just wrapped up in sick folks. I suppose I'll soon have to play ill myself to arouse his interest at all." "Put he gives you everything you wish. He lets you go when and where you will. Surely, you are not unhappy?" "Sometimes I think I am the most miserable person in the world. I once thought that money would man happiness to me that's why I married—but it has meant nothing but misgiving and regret." Leslie looked at her as she stood twisting her handchief and gazing off into space. The mountain drifted into her face. She hanced about her pretty face and flickered on her black wavy hair. He felt a close kishtip to her and felt that their toes were almost mutual—his foot provided him nothing. Nothing had caused her to marry the doctor, who was twice her age, just for money. She had bartered her soul for a pleasure that his wife would provide. She had consequences, even though she did not love him. His case was different. He had married as a sense of duty, or honor, to repay her for all the sufferings and worry he had caused her. He was willing to pay his debt; why shouldn't she. He looked up suddenly into his eyes. "It's so hard to find someone who understands," she murmured. "Single people never know what we married." He could have him, it is so good to confide in a man like you, in young married man who and stands." She had come very close to him; she looked up into his face, then kissed his own, lesbian breathed hard. "I think we had better go back in to the house," he said coldly turning on his heat and leading the way. "I have to do this, and the doctor had raised our massive volumes to substantiate their arguments and find them spread out over the center table." "Why I hardly realized how late it *trol.* As such times our waking operations and activities, our planning, and calculating, our outward life in general ceases and we "go to sleep." Only necessary work, such as dealing with the machines, continues. But just as in a factory when the daily operations are over, some wormmen remain to work on the machines, free from the bustle of day so when this body-factory is quieted some of the processes of life are continued under more effective conditions. If you are ill, which means that you are sick, you have to use of the machines (some internal organs), then it is that nature seems to take advantage of the quiet and freedom from daily cares to advance in the system. A good sleep is the best of medicine because the nature of our bodies relieves the operator in charge of most of his duties, so he will not "cut in" and enter. This explanation is, of course, complicated, but it will enable you to understand what sleep really is. How much sleep you allow your body to keep the body in a state of high working efficiency. How much sleep do you allow your body to keep the body in a state of amount and regular in time, and when going to sleep dismiss, as far as possible, your worries and anxieties assist nature in her best workable form.

"And I return the compliment," replied Leslie, "yours almost tripped me too." The Hargraves were putting on their wraps when the doctor remarked, "I hardly knew that two young people like you live, confounding that I get very little time for social engagements. I just tore myself away tonight. By the way, Kayne, here is my office phone number, call me up here." "Give Mr. Kayne the house phone," interrupted Cleo. "He may find convenient to call up there sometimes. There was a significant look in her eyes. She was kind, kinder, kinder herself and handed it to Leslie." "Quite an interesting woman, don't you think?" he remarked to Joyce and gone, "niffy dress she had on you." "That's the way with husbands," site rejoined, "they can always see pretty things on other women, but not on their own wives. I bought this dress especially for your benefit and you never said a word." "Why that is new, isn't it, very chic—what did it cost?" "Only a hundred and fifty, cheap at Cheap." roared Leslie, "you must think I am made of money." "Don't rave so, not a penny of your money paid for this. I got my check from the school board today." "I gave me a part of it to help me out of debt" Clothes, clothes, always clothes, and I keep my nose to the grind stone my house pay for this curtain, pay for the car.

"If it was not for Aileen, I mean Miss Roberts, I don't know, what I threw you go again, continually raving about Aliceen who is merely your secretary, while I get no credit for making a home for you. I believe there is so much private after all." Leslie forgot the unpleasantness of the previous night. forgot Cloe Harrington, forgot to—he could not forget Gwen. It was a week later he entered the office after lunch to find Aileen crying. "What's the matter," he inquired. "What's the matter?" She was reluctant. "It's your friend," she stammered after much persuasion. "Mr. Clifford," he insists of the office. "He just left here a moment before you entered. Won't you please speak to him?" Leslie put into Rutgers' office. "See here Clifford," he blurted out, "you've got to stop annoying Miss Roberts, my secretary. Her time is valuable. You must leave her alone." "Perhaps you would like to have things all to yourself," suggested Rupert smearingly. "You mean to insinuate?" demanded Dave. "Don't play the innocent lamb with me. You know blamed well you want the girl for yourself, or else you would be hurt." Surely, you are mistaken. Miss Roberts is nothing more than a child to me. It was merely a bit of gallantry on my part that prompted me to marry her. Remember, I am a married man. "Galantry!" jeered Rupert. "I suppose you want to call it gallantry and I want to marry her in your apartment in New York, and I know that right now you know where she is and are putting up for her. Yes, I think you want Alenef for a dog like you would do anything. There was a scream behind him. Leslie turned. His face showed his disdain. "God!" he cried. It was Joyce.

It is a revolt against jazz and fast-living drinking and nectaring and drinking. Now, don't you feel like making the welkin resound with thunder? I must have been about it in the Literary Digest last week. It just seemed almost too good to be true. And yet, after all, it is exactly what you have been believing would happen some day. With all of their wild abandon, their disgusting license, their reckless disgust, their disgustful mentions of human existence, I have held on to my belief in youth. I have felt it would sooner or later come to its senses. And you has justified my confidence. It even sooner than I expected. It seems it first began in Philadelphia just before Christmas—this revolt of the flapper. The mood of being expected—and in a sense almost forced—to pay for entertainment by petting and drinking, girls in these two have formed what are called "slow" These clubs are an organized protest against the loosest ties among jazzage amusements which have startled and disgusted the intelligent and sane of to-day. They are a declaration of a blue-faced eater with a flask on his hip and about as much real conversation as a blue-faced eater with a delicious description of our young shells? And also against his counterpart, — the empty-headed, cheap female with no self-respect, respect. I am simply tired of going out with me who expect a good-high kiss. So many people do the same thing.

And girls will be able to find the club an opportunity for sane fun without making fools of themselves." This testimony comes from a club formed there to reference to the club formed there. And don't you for one moment think that these clubs are founded by the sky, backward wall-flowers, seaside seaside or of young person. Listen to this: "They have recruited their rank (which in Philadelphia alone has twenty-nine changes) to the job of a 9,000, and a waiting-list of 25,000) from the very highest types of youngsters who have last contact with cars, with automobile parties, 'petting' and necking parties.

So she pushed her little chair into a corner, and clasping it to stop blowing, she said her mother, "it's nearing your bedtime." Sylvia slowly pushed the little chair into its place.

This chapter has several divisions and the general classification: these divisions are: 1, dramatic; 2, comedy; 3, kinect; 4, camera clubs, and 6, boy's and girls' clubs. Each division meets regularly, and the general chapter meetings at stated intervals, at which time a program is rendered to which all the divisions contribute with their name and purpose. Now, doesn't this sound interesting, and isn't it all a most heartwarming turn of saintly and decency? I wonder how soon such movement will be started among our own group. Haven't we some people in our group "allure" stuff, and are eager for "SANE FUN WITHOUT MAKING FOOLS OP THEMSELVES?" Is it really fun? Do we need to joke, people to form such a club of protest and revolt? Do the most of us actually ENJOY suggestive jokes, or valueville, promiscuous petting, and a boot-legged liquor? I feel like shouting, "No, no, a thousand times," no, no, to believe anything else. I am confident that we can match the other group with anything they produce. Not in a way that would make anything else. I am a chance for the young people of our race to prove themselves, to show what is really in them, to justify the hopes and romance of our group, to their highest and your opportunity.

The two time collegiate champions did more than defeat the present city champions. The defeat became a riot the riot a disaster—the disaster of debacle and the debacle a cataclysm and catastrophe. Ten Greeks couldn't halt it. 1000 rooters cheered Morgan when the team came upon the floor, a mightier cheer went up for the Athenians—the people's cheers. Then later another the team for Dr. Athenian tactician and guard, his ancient legs encased in the only pair of stockings on the floor. Morgan was favored in the betting but there was Greek money in sight. At Athenian Jones, center for Morgan outplayed Simpson and Keller, the Athenian centers, and gave his team this advantage. Morgan's four man offensive with Tom Wheatley dribbling down the center of the floor, after the delayed tap of offended the audible drumman annoyed the Greeks. Every member of Morgan's regulars shot 2 or more goals. Wheatley And Jones Two things stick out after the game. One is that Tom Wheatley is the best guard in the country and the other that "Lanky" Jones is the best center. Doc. Harris held Sheffy down but "Pinky" Clark got away from "Joe" Jackson. "Pinkey" Clarke Many a game has been played here this season by the Bears with outstanding court contenders, and it was always, Jones, Sheffy or Hill who won scintillating honors but tonight the Bears stood out like an evening star. He showed more speed than any of the ten men on the court, and opened up the second half for the Bears in grand style. Field goal two Jersey bots cage field goal two Jersey bots tap off, then a second later another one and a third one. It was great to watch the speed demon clude the Greeks and break up every play. Although he was not high point scorer, he fought his way through a grueling contest, probably his best game this season. LANKY JONES "Lanky" Jones, who is the all-time satellite of the collegiate champs, more than once the tree that he fell in the field goals击倒 he fell like taking a shot, all other times he passed the ball to some of his cohants who counted. Seven field goals and three free resues of seventeen points was the best dunks could do. THE CAME Simpson, former Howard University varsity player, stands in the fences of a field goal box, holding him, and the tree toss counted. This lead was short lived as Sheffy counted on a free toss to even the field goal. He had for a three to one count for Dancing B Morg WARD AN SNAT the collegians. "Chippie" Taylor, the lightning flash, got through the Morgan Geeves like a cannon ball and sent the spiral thru a loop for a marker and the Greeks were off. Near the end of the first half with the Greeks leading 9 to 4, the collegians got together, and when the smoke cleared away they were out in front 15 to 10. Jones with three field goals and Wheatley with two led this furious assault. The half ended Morgan 15. Greeks th. In that first session, Simpson was the Greeks' main cog and when he departed near the end of three personal fours, the "pro" outfit began to witter. Clark opened the second half with three consecutive field goals and the outright doff of three personal fours. The last half proved to be the one in which the Morgan boys showed their superiority by merely resorting to trick play and missed passing touchdowns. Brown who capped three successive field goals, the Greeks were almost out of the question. Near the close of the game, Simpson received his fourth personal foul and retired in favor of Kelce. It was during the final half that Morgan unleashed an attack that soon had them leading by almost a triple score, 14-10. It was the 20 onshaughter as the game ended. The game as a whole, was fairly fast, clean and well played. The only fault anyone could find was that the Greeks Aside from Kraw and Simpson, Harris and Jackson played a cooring good game at guard, of course the Morgan boys were all good, even "Brine" Chamis, who replaced Shifty in the long minutes and sank one thru the foul. Preliminary Game The Coleritius Cagers ran rough shot over the Morgan girls in the preliminary contest winning 13 to 7. In the first half the game ended along as the Coleritius Cagers contested the Coleritius leading 6 to 4. In the second stunner some sensational shooting by Miss Parrott who thoped three field goals, and the stellar guarding by Misses Cooper and Holmes, who missed Miss Anthony with two field goals, followed Miss Parrott as high score, while Misses, Brunleid, Orffut and cook led the Morgan attack.

The Black Sox, Eastern Leaguers, opened the i r spring training on a chilly April Sunday afternoon by losing the opening game of a double bill to the Locust Point All-Stars white, 10 to 4, but led in the nightcap from the Baltimore Giants 7 to 1 as darkness fell. Due to the fact that many of the Sox players have not reported yet, the team was made up of five pitchers, two regular infielders and three local sandlotters. Ben Taylor held down the initial bag with the "Scrapy" Brown performer shot short. Bowman, a member of the Chieftain A. C., was on the mound and Campbell behind the plate. McChure. Force. Strong. Pritchard and Mungin handled the other positions. The Locust Pointers opened the first game by easing the turn across by the pitcher when two errors by Taylor a single by Hogson, turned the trick. "Scrapy" Brown opened the Sox half with a single to when Jeffries made a wild pitch. left, stole second and went to third McChure was safe on an infield hit and Brown scored. Fatal Second In the second inning, 3 singles by Sidlaw, Ganning and Hallomeyer, respectively coupled with two walks and 11 runs throws gave the All-Stars five runs. The Sox counted one in the third when Bowman hit to left field for three bases and scored on Strong's infield hit. In the fifth and Taylor's crew manched to ease over one in back round. A single "Scrapy" Brown, who stole second and counted when Strong duplicated the feat put one over in the fifth, while a single by McClure and Prichard, followed by an error when Muncin's grounder to short brought across a run in the sixth. Mid-Season Form The Loudest Pointers were in near season form as they have been playing for several weeks, while Sunday was the first time Ben Taylor and his crew have put their feet on the diamond. Bowman was touched for six hits, but errors by the locals ran up the big score. The Sox got 15 singles, "Scrapy" getting four, including a double.

REEVES, JR. Probably the first thing that strikes one when being told of the foats performed by some basketball, baseball, football or track athlete is, what is his name, and where did he come from? The above question nine times out of ten appears primarily with everyone. I am going to give you a brief look into the personage of six men who have fought hard for two seasons to make Morgan College the Collegiate champions of the country. Every man, in practically every instance, has upon entering college, the desire to be a great athlete. To some the dream comes true, while to others it is just a nightmare. Powell B. Sheffy; the "pink flash" as he was called in the Morgan-Renaissance game in New York, because of his speed, is a native of Wytherville, in the state of Kentucky, at Douglass High in Baltimore, where he tossed his first basketball in 1922. Sheffy is a member of the Junior class at Morgan, and vows to be a physician when his college days are over. He is 22 years of age. "Pinky Dan" Sheffy "pinky" the ball out at Morgan, but up at Orange, N. J., his home town he is known as Daniel M. Clark. Clark is not only a great little forward on the baseball team, but a star quarterback on the Bears 20 years old and finished Morgan Academy. In 1917 his career as a court toser began, and today, as a member of the sophomore class, Clark looms up with the best athletes in the country. He says he will take up dentistry. Doctor "Lanky" Too There is one boy on the team every son and daughter in Dixie mound and held the Giants to two singles. Campbell, member of the Ebenzer Royals, who did the back- stopping for the Eastern Leaguers, got two doubles in as many times at BALTO.

Where Is He Now? BY WALTER L. REEVES. JR. No doubt every ardent baseball fan in Washington and Baltimore also other cities where the team plays, and dislikes this position this season, but never thought once to look up or ask who the Coach was. Well, I take it upon myself to tell you something about John H. Burr, coach of the Bison basketball, baseball and track teams, and the Springfield, Mass. graduate from the technical high school there in 1919. In the fall of the same year he entered Springfield College, the Alma Mater of the we have already heard about, namely, the Glenwood High School, Douglass High School, Baltimore; Louis Watson, Athletic director, Howard, and Joseph Millender, P. A. L., director, Baltimore. In the same year Burr made the varsity soccer team and played thru 1922. Then in 1920 he joined the team and was elected captain in 1922. Burr, was student instructor in soccer and track 1920-22. Among other school activities he was Kunley Library Society, vice president in 1922; Red Cross Life Saving Corps and American Physical Education Association.

MEET National Open Championships to Christen New Stadium Track SYRACUSE LAD BROKE RECORD LAST WEEK WASHINGTON, D.C.—Cecil Cook of Syracuse University, who last year was victor in the National A. A. U. championships, winning the quarter-mile crown in 48.8 seconds, will compete in the National Open Championships at the Howard University spring classic, Saturday, May 14, 1927. In this race, Cook will make an effort to establish a world's record for the quarter-mile run. He has been turning in some nifty quarters in indoor meets this year. He is just about at his best and might to equal the outdoor mark. If he doesn't succeed, breaking the record. A few Saturday nights ago, Cook, at the Engineers Armory in the Intercollegiate A. A. A. A. title meet, New York City, turned one best quarters of the season. He was running for the man on the Syrue mule rihe quartette when this team defeated Georgetown, Holly Cross, Cornell and Yale in the fast time of 3 minutes, 21 4-10 seconds. This is 2-5 of a second faster than the record of the famous Georgetown team, 1925. All of the fans who have seen Cook run admire his fighting spirit. Whether he gets off to a good lead, or a discouraging handicap, he always runs an impressive mile. He is perhaps the most consistent quarter-miler in the country. He is entered in the quarter mile open special at the Howard meet. He will, doubtless, be required to give a large hand to scrape the floor. The public will have the satisfaction of seeing perhaps, the greatest quarter-miler in the country perform in the new Howard university stadium for the first time. A large squad of men are kept busy only walked the new cinematic stadium. The superintendent of construction predicts that this will be one of the fastest tracks in the country and the management must fast stepping, with possibility of one or more new records established.

Changes Date From May 7 To 14 FIRST RIFT BETWEEN COLLEGES INDICATED Howard's New Date Coincides With That Of Meet At Hampton By Leon S. Rage LINCOLN UNIV., PA. The first rift between Howard University and Lincoln, the latter recently accepted as a member of the C. I. A. A., came this week when the Lions announced that they would not be represented at the Bison track meet on May 14, but instead would attend the Hampton event on the same date. The Lincoln Athletic Board was notified several days ago by the Howard authorities that their annual track meet would be held the second Saturday in May, instead of on May 14, because of this action on the part of the Washington school. Lincoln could not enter a team in both events and therefore decided to send one to Hampton for the C. I. A. a contest, and in which conference they are meant. Lincoln will remain on friendly terms with Howard, and will enter a team in their meet if the date is changed to May 7, instead of the 14th. It is said that Howard's actions will break up the sectional interest in the annual C. I. A. a meet. Coach Young's trackmen have an unusually hard schedule before them. On April 22nd, they will enter a team in the 69th place. On May 16th, they on the 22nd, a team will be placed in the Baltimore Health Marathon, on the 30th, the Penn Relays, May 14.

The right food is necessary. But too much of it right or wrong, can break down a Babe Ruth or turn a Wild Bull of a bat. College athletes are extremely important—in their place—under control—and within bounds. They are never as important as the headlines might indicate, as long as they are good standing in classes and athletics, the latter should be dropped, but rarely is. But the fact that college athletics should be abolished is as long as good coaching training, place and discipline have their place in the scheme of things. Shaw Meets A. And T. GREENSBORO, N.

Carter not to accept the ‘post of minister ‘and consul general to Liberia has set political tongues to wagging. Refusal of the post because it tes in the tropies is nothing unusual in the history of the state department, It was offered to Dr. J. B. Oliver of Brazil, Indiana under the Wilson ad- ministration, who declined it for sim- ilar reasons and stated that he would not be averse to going to Haiti. In appointing Mr. Carter, the State Department let it be known thet it favored the policy of advancing those already in foreign service in filling its posts as ministers instead of regarding the office merely as a political plum. I Seemed therefore that Mr. Car- ter’s 20 years service as U. S. Con-' sul to Madagascar gave him the re- quisite background with which to Randle the Liberian situation. As an inducement to make the post at- tractive, the Department further ob- ligated itself to raise the salary trom $5,000, the present figure, and to see to it’ that Mr. Carter didnot tose his consiler standing entitling him to retirement and pension under the ules of the constlar service, Apparently the State Department felt. Mr. Carter would be satisfied with ‘these concessions, for the Pres- ident sent his name ‘to the Senate which promptly confirmed hin, But he wasn’t for he promply: declined. gciit, Shy, the President and the Senate were allowed to go so tar ‘with this nomination and confirma- ton while Mr. Carter's mind was not made up is @ mystery. | ‘This much 4s evident however, that Mr. Carter must have asked for tur~ ther “concessions which were not granted, and secondly that he came thru the whole affair with the con- fidence of the State Department ‘which promoted him thereupon to ‘the consulate at Calais, France. | Kip Learns | ‘Tongue-tied Leonard Kip Rhine- lander the ‘wealthy white New" York ristoray is sil married to his al Colored wife, Alice Jones Rinelander after two yeats and a half of lige: ton, and ‘an expenditure. of neatly S25d00, Pt ths amount, the court nas com- pelled him to pay” $6900 in counsel fees to his wifes avers and 3800 ‘in alimony to his wife directly.

Saturday, April 9, 1927 1,288 CHILDREN IN COURT HERE DURING 1926 Larceny, Disorder And Tru- ancy Predominated In Ju- venile Offenses ELEVEN YEARS MOST DANGEROUS FOR BOYS Majority Arrested At Eleven Fourteen 1,2B8 colored children came under the jurisdiction of the Juvenile Court during 1926, according to a report issued by Judge T. J. C. Williams showing the work of that division for the year ending December 31. The court was created in 1902, Judge Williams said, and is believed to be one of the first courts in the civil record exclusively to the trial and disposition of cases where children are the attendants. The reason for the creation of the court was the desire of humane citizens to rescuen children from police police courts where they necessarily herded Prior to this time many very young children were sentenced to the city jail. Records show children in custody, as nine boys were sentenced. The Williams is to give children guidance than treat them as criminals. Disorders are treated on when the children were arranged. On the first charge 299 boys were tried and on the latter 165 boys were tried for disorder and but two twelfy. Larceny also played a great part with 297 for boys and 4 for girls. Another charge in which there was not the child in many cases, was that of being a minor without proper care. 161 boys were sentenced on this charge with 66 boys were charged. Flexen Dangerous Age Eleven years of age seem to be the age at which boys get into most masticin; if the age reports previous masticin, they are bounded by the age of the 615 boys tried for vices offences. 100 gave the age of seven, 140. journeen and the 134. thienen, and 90 were ranging from 18 years. Pearson seemed the age at which girls go to school. The reports on screen show that of the total given, 648 were Roman Catholic and 62 were Roman Catholic and one was a Holy Roller. 285 boys tried, were placed on probation and 150 were committed to institutions and 64 were dismised. Of this number 65 were committed to the House of Reformers at Cheltenham and 150 were committed to the Parental Home at Catignyle. 1920 Mrs. M. E. Weston, 206 N. Edison St., Greenville, Miss., (picture above) says: "While in Utica (Miss.) Institute, where I graduated, I studied hard and would feel so tired, sluggish, and I didn't feel like eating, and at certain times was very weak. I didn't want to get behind my classes, and yet it was an effort to keep going. "I remembered how Cardui helped me once, and I took it again, with splendid results.

You had left then without doing any cutting you wouldn't have gotten in trouble," said the Magistrate. "Your Honor, I intended to go back to Springfield, Ill., over four years and whom kept me but I'll go now."

TURNER 423 Druid Hill Avenue Woman Slashed Coat To Jail Him The story that his lady friend Miss Lizzie Green, 215 N. Dallast street, cut her own cost just to get him in trouble, probably saved Walter Dalton, of the same address from a six-month sentence in the Northwestern Correction when he was arraigned in the Northeastern. Monday morning. Dalton was accused by Miss Green of assaulting her with a razor and she displayed a coat with a deep slash in the back to substantiate the charge. Dalton declared that he did not have a razor. When police questioned her, she denied her own coat to make things bad for him. When police testified that the home was wrecked by fighting, the magistrate fined both of them $5 and costs. The woman paid her own fine but Dalton was committed to jail.
