It must include the recognition of the white man's fear of misceenment. And it must include the recognition of the black race are, seemingly by nature, not amenable to the legal and habitual restrictions of society. The Negro is here — here in northern cities like Chicago — is here to stay and to increase in number; that is, to continue serving a social purpose; that he has a right to live, work and be haunt; and that a resentment self by confining him into narrow, undesirable areas makes him a less desirable citizen.

MORE SEGREGATION (Continued from Page One) regulations are wanted in the north for the sake of both races, yet the steady increase in northern Negro populations, with no formula for the race question yet evolved, carries such an eventuality constantly farther toward the realm of possibilities. “Perhaps such an event can be avoided by legal separation of the two races. Not segregation, though it will in fact work out as such, but separation legally applicable to the whites as well as to the blacks. It will take a readjustment of the opinions and points of view of both races before such a satus can be accomplished, but anything is better than the racial antagonism which is bound to follow if the Negro populations of northern cities continue to grow without the establishment of an amicable and practical understanding.” DR.

The costume was beautifully decorated — as usual the lights were soft and the musicians played so loud that your feet tingled, your puzzles quickened, and you felt yourself blushing. How in the world can I tell you all about the costumes of those hunky artists of gaucho art, gaucho artisans, Solones, Spanish grandees, Colonial dames, little girls, little boys, babies and sucklings; buttecats, robes and robesuds, variable parade, parade, "white wings" of the street Flying Squadron brigade, and oh! the variegated shawls and white wigs! to be divided between Rhetta Clifford and Louise Hayes!

The Afro-American—Baltimore, Md Bruce Believes Heflin Has "Derouged Intellect" The rumor that certain Howard professors have been suspended because of the bulletin is looked for every day. So far as the writer is informed, he has been taken. President Johnson has been taken and paying respects to white civilization. He is expected now to turn his attention to colored civilization on the Howard Campus. Should Tell Names Moon Tell Names Meanwhile, the professors of unattendance reputation are maintaining that the writer should tell the public frankly who the accuser is in order that the suspicion may be beaten; for people are free to guess any name, with consequent embarrassment to innocent professors. We wish to advise such professors that they should be guessing the right names. The fact that the accused are being so easily identified destroys whatever the more charitable critics might give. Occasionally, two additional names are thrown in for good measure, but there seems to be no surprise, in the case of the Campus, concerning the professors; marvel is that this condition had not made its way to the press long before an indignant student exposed it. People of sound judgment and integrity declare that these charges are not myths. There is something rotten in Denmark, and abundant information is available. President Johnson finds any difficulty in judging these cases, the writer will begin to give the public as much of the cases, omitting the much of the names, as he can secure. The writer finds that a dependent investigation and will begin the exposure as soon as he is satisfied that no action is to be taken. The matter is too serious to die a natural death. Certain female students have fearlessly accused professors of conduct unbecoming their position. The female students making these charges still remain, and the professors. Not even the Delphian Oracle could reconcile this situation. Patient The patrons of Howard University will remain patient but persistent. We have been dedicated to the development of true womanhood needs purifying. College residence constitutes a period of time in which we start qualities of the professors actually more than many of their midwed lee- WASHINGTON, D. C.-Continuing his attacks on the Catholic Church and Governor Alfred Smith in the Senate, Tuesday, Senator Thomas J. Hefflin, (Dem. Ala.), repeated his criticism of the New York government on Tuesday. New York City and support of the Dyer anti-lynching bill by Tammany Democrats in Congress, charged that the "social equality ideas" of Governor Smith are hurtful in the South. "Dance halls in New York City were not white women," Hefflin said. "present a mean and contemptible phase of social equality." A effort of Governor Smith to have the anti-lynching bill passed when Democrats from Tammany would not vote with southern Democrats in the measure. Hefflin asserted, "was putting a premium on the crime of rape, sowing dragon's teeth in the Senate, and in other sections of the country." Replying to the diatribe of Heflin, Senator William Cabell Bruce, (Dem. Md.) declared that he was beginning operations of the abstinent of the fictions of an almost "deranged intellect."

Transfer Foe Of - Contact with strong personalities and a comprehensive bibliography afford the best training that any college can give. Even digested facts, augmenting students' information cannot vie with the influence of the professors' personalities. It matters not so much what studies are pursued as what professors give these studies. The crowning glory of the college, if it has any, is the professor. Female students at Howard University come from almost every state and from foremost and from foremost. It goes with the fact that their parents expect Howard University to protect them against such indignities as have been alleged. Surely, emeritus from University should the foremost, in protecting these young women. Trainers of youth must not become betrayers of youth. It is to the mind of the professor for moral instruction, moral guidance, and moral example. Whenever such leaders fall down, we may expect the whole racial fabric of our moral education youthhood to be rent asunder. Baconian Advice Male professors of female students must accept the Baconian advice, to the extent of the obligation of it. Gossip can rapidly when its seed is planted. In these cases, however, the professors have not been the object of the gossip, and have been theirs. Still worse, rumors of like nature have hovered over their before. An official reprimand stands in their favor, and the reprimand was on the charge of unbecoming conduct with a female student. It has its axes when professors intrusted with the character-building of female students fashion traps to ensnare their charges. It is most damnable to persuade a student to take a fake symbol in academic achievement. Marks were never introduced into college for trading purposes. It is really inconceivable that Howarders of its faculty even four or five professors who are so lacking in the chief qualifications of their job that they do not merely for themselves but for the entire faculty. A rotten professor is as damaging to the influence of the whole faculty as his counterpart in apples to the whole barrow. Some well-meaning educator invented the expression, "academic freedom," which has been conveniently stranded in schools. It was never intended to. --- Arnold W.

The "Bump" A co-bd of Howard University has informed the writer that recently she saw one of her professors, at a dance, do the "bump", whatever the name connotes. Her description of it indicated that it was not com-posed by the Howard professor. The writer is not up on "bumps", but he is perfectly willing to give the President the name of his "bumping professor". He will not be necessary for him to unload facts upon which he himself has checked, but he feels that the patrons of Howard University should know the welfare of their daughters. There can be no compromise on matters of such vital importance. The administration of Howard alone can cure the writer and check others from stepping up. The writer has no new philosophy to offer, unless the philosophy of deference be new. There has always been a strong estimate that should be maintained between the tutor and the tutored. Even a person of the lowest stratum of society will scorn the practice on the part of the tutor who attaches awards female students is other than professional. **Evidence In** Professors with osculating properties must not ply their trade with students. No doubt, their own wives would welcome such "confectionery" for their children. Professors represented these overtures are to be congratulated and not characterized as "framers". We can all well see why some of the female students in our classes such cases, though they may be indignant. If, however, womanhood is hereafter guaranteed protection, there will be no need of such an investigation for the next fifty or more years. President Johnson need not fear the public in these cases. If he saw fit to put the cases before the public, he would surely win the approval of the president. He must take to rid Howard of his misfits. We hope that some decision is given within this week. The information we have accused can easily face each other. The records of the professors accusations looks like a simple problem in subtraction — four from four leaves nothing. The clean up will restore attitudes towards its female students. There were 44 births reported to the Health Department for the week ending Frederick and Carolyn Anderson, boy.

Several hundred young people attended the junior church and in still another room women of the congregation attended seventy-five babies whose mothers were at the service. Mothers Fall Down Young people are no worse today than they were a generation ago. Dr. Williams declared. In other days young people did not ride in autos and know all the fancy steps we dance today, but they went as far as they could. Mothers today are falling down on the job of caring properly for their children, said Dr. Williams, women can't join all the clubs and lodges intown and rear a family. They must have a program and bring their "Parents must love each other if they expect children to love them. They have no right to wed unless they love. I heard a woman say she was going to get married in order to have some one to help her mom with the marriage would prove a veritable hell.

Dr. Jones Hooted Two huge baskets of flowers were presented Bishop Joshua Jones when he was introduced to preside at Monday morning's session. The conference was not in a humor to take, but wounded encomiums, however, so when Rev H. P. Jones, Ohio, had spoken on Bishop Jones' work for five minutes, he was hooted down. The cry of "order of the day" was then taken up in the rear of the hall and swelled until they denounced demonstration last six minutes. A motion introduced by Ira Bryant. Tennessee, was passed hereafter limiting these introductory services to ten minutes. Bishop Brooks Voted $15,337 The sum of $13,373.64 was voted Bishop Brooks by the Missionary Department.

Colbert Says More Attention Is Paid To Physical Than Spiritual Side WITNESSES NEEDED Live Christianity And Don't Argue He Advises Too much emphasis has been placed on the building of fine edifices and the physical side of the church and not enough on the spiritual well being of the people, the Rev. J. Colbert told his congregation at the Presbyterian Church, Sunday. While the building of places of worship is necessary to the promotion of the kingdom this was not the original purpose of the founders in the upper chamber, religion who need it in the upper chamber, for the carrying on of Christ's work after the crucifixion, he declared. Witnesses For Christ. The program of the upper chamber was that those gathered should go forth to witness for Christ and testify to the things they had seen and experienced. In order for a person to be a witness for Christ it is necessary that he should have experience, he declared, unconverted man can be a world-warrior in the church, but until he has been born again he cannot be a true witness. The church makes the mistake of trying to answer all the arguments of heretics and infidels and in trying to refute the contentions advanced b" modernists and scientists, but this is not the purpose of the church. B merely living a good clean life and trying to exemplify the teaching of Jesus in everyday life the Christian does more to substantiate his belief than by entering into controversies with unbelievers. The Upper Room Taking as his subject the "Program at the Upper Room", Dr. Colbert describes the destinies of nations have been decided, men gathered in a small chamber and the influence of the upper room where the disciples met has been radiated over the whole world.

TO CONFERENCE 11,900 Mile Trip Required Thirty Days By The Delegation BISHOP GREGG TALKS Says American Jazz Originally Came From Africa CHICAGO, (Special.) — The most picturesque delegation at the General Conference of the A. M. E. Church is not the 101 delegates from Texas but the tiny group of ten persons who travelled 11,000 miles from Capetown, South Africa, requiring just 30 days for the trip. Led by Bishop John A. Gregg the delegation includes the following pastors: J. Y. Tanel, Charles Demas P. T. Jaean, Chalmers Nymobol, S. Mabott, Benjamin, Rev, and Mrs. Grassman, Gow, and Mrs. Charlotte Maxke. Here they appear in American regulation costume. But they brought with them colorful native costumes, rugs, skin, basketry and beads that give even metropolitan Chicago an eyeful. Bishop Gregg Says Bishop Gregg said: "In the church districts the native Christian adopts many of the white man's ways, but in the districts which are still native he remains African. Take, for instance, Sobhuza II, the young king of Swaziland, a member of our church and a graduate of Loveland College, a Scottish missionary. He doesn't try to be a Scotchman. "When he called on me first the king wore evening dress, spats and topper, but when he is among his own people he wears the royal leather jacket, the sweeping headaddress, the gait that he feels more at home. That is the dress his ancestors have worn for more than 1,000 years. "The African has remarkable musical gifts. American jazz must have come from Africa, for the tomtom music has the same syncopation." "We know the Africans are a backward people, but we believe eventually they will be greatly benefited by education. The difficulty is not to persuade them of their need for it, but in providing it. The mission school will be the chief means of educating the African for some years and at present the mission schools are swamped by applicants for enrollment." --- Bishop Gregg Says Episcopal Committee Declines To Quiz Bishop A.

All of the churches and civic organizations held special services in the afternoon, dedicated particularly to the occasion. At 1:45 o'clock, Seventh avenue had become almost choked with automobiles and crowds. The long lines of both spectators and paraders banked both sides of the avenue like a military unit and seemed to meet, in the perspective. The weather man had given the throng a square deal and they took advantage of it. Fashion Parade The fashion parade started with the first blare of the first brass band going to the formation point of the military parade. This effected people in all houses of worship. The Odd Fellows. First Regiment of the Monarch Lodge of Elks graced the occasion thru their glittering uniforms. The big officials of these organizations marched in review between long lines with much pomp and dignity as the brass band played national airs.

Georgia Has Worst Southern Prisons; Alabama Has Best MEMPHIS, Tennessee, (ANP.) — Georgia has the worst prisons in the south and Alamanda has the best, according to the report of William B. Cox, secretary of the National Association of Penal Information and Example Bureau, for investigation of prisons and penal tactics in the South. "Human labor is held so cheap in all Southern prisons," he said, "that the states feel justified in taking any means whatsoever, to extract every ounce of work, even the dead, punishment of extraordinary severity are relied upon rather than rewards as a means of keeping the men at the maximum point of production. There is no attempt at vocational training and no concern. "In most states," he continued, "the feeling seems to be that there is no public responsibility for the effect of prison life on the individual. The underlying reason for this attitude is that in former years the majority of prison populations were Negroes.

P., was sent to Abbeville, S. C., to in- thony Crawford. The echoes of that investigation were heard all over the country for after it was over South Carolina attempted to extradite Mr. White from New York state and have him face trial for alleged perjury and "passing for white". Governor "Al" Smith sent word that he would never issue any such papers, so South Carolina had to content itself with threatening what it would do to Mr. White if he ever entered the state again. Last week Mr. White on his visit to the University Conference was introduced for the first time to the Rev. W. C. Crawford, a delegate from the Piedmont, S. C. Conference, and son of the man who was lynched. It was the Rev. Mr. Crawford's privilege to thank Mr. White for the effort to bring his father's slayers to justice, and was Mr. White's desire to gratitude to angrieved son, who despite the lawlessness of the South still holds on and attempts to reform it.

Many persons read only the Negro weekly magazine, the Negro book, but they are learning to know their people a great deal better week by week than formerly. They are kept in touch with a wider endurance and they learn, too, that the average Negro is doing more than robbing a hen coop by the light of day or the dark of the moon; that he is going to school, colleges and universities and is entering into almost every event. They learn of the Negro from the Negro and find out after all the Negro is not half as bad as he is painted. The Negro Press has opened for itself a wide field of readers.

It is their Bible and prayer book, but it is learning to listen to people a great deal better week by week than formerly. They are kept in touch with a wider world of Negro endeavor and they learn, too, that the Negro is doing something more than robbing a hen coop by the light of day on the work of the moon; that he is going to school, colleges and universities and is entering into almost every walk of life.

Business Despite the far reaching business failures recorded during the last 12 months, and the present era of unemployment, business men of the group express a general optimism which is encouraging. The plan of the National Negro Business League to make a complete survey of business throughout the country and the establishment to what is becoming a sub-bureau in the Bureau of Commerce, complying scientific knowledge to the development of group business, will no doubt begin a new era in this field. There seems to be one outstanding fact growing out of the recent failures. Depositors of banks and holders of securities scrutinize more closely the personnel of their boards of directors and must insist that competent and trained men be placed in control of affairs. The real responsibility of the management of banking institution lies with the stockholders as represented by the board of directors they select. Men selected to banking boards of directors simply because they have large following in another field of endeavor is the same as selecting a man to run a locomotive whose training and success has been that of farming. Upper professional training in business is as essential as proper training in any of the professions.

"Cheating Cheaters" One of the most terrible aspects of the miscled and narrow views of such men and women in the South who make up the leadership of a Blease or a Hefflin is what it does to these very people themselves. Take the case of a white South Carolinian who was recognized recently being dismissed as a drunken sat in a local police court. When asked why he did not go back to Dixie, he hurried to explain that section saying "Look what Dixie did to me." When the Tillmans and Blease had enacted into South Carolina Laws, statutes which gave white men the right to vote without education; without property or other qualifications while it made Negroes own $300 in real estate or on enough education to satisfy a bishs election official, they were cheating the heart and soul out of white citizens of that state. When they taught white youth that certain laws were made for "niggers," that cheating black folk did not come within the perview of Bible doctrine and that chivalry and morality were denied by civilization, satisfaction of a bishs election, they perhaps did not know that they were cutting at the roots of their own civilization. There are thousands of pure blood Anglo-Saxon men and women with stunted and dwarfed souls who hate the South for what it has done to their civilization, to be also highly intelligent men who are now outspoken in their criticism of the narrowness and hide bound prejudice which has many in this section within its grip. Unfortunately at the present rate in which this narrowness is still being permitted to pollute the minds of the young whites. it will beages beaten to death and the poor and their mental facilities. But at heart these youth would rather be fair, square and honest and have called feeling that they were able to give the colored youth the same fair chance without fear of being beaten in the race of life.

Take the case of a white South Carolinaian who takes the case recently being dismissed as a drunken sat in a local police court. When asked why he did not go back to Dixie, he hurled blasphemous ephistom as that section saying "Look what Dixie did to me." When the Tillmans and Blease had enacted into South Carolina Laws, statutes which gave white men the right to vote without education; without property or other qualifications while voting; and without the ability to obtain enough education to enterprise the U.S. Constitution to the satisfaction of a bias election official; they were cheating the heart and soul out of white citizens of that state. When they taught white youth that certain laws were made for "niggers;" that cheating black folk did not come within the perview of Bible doctrine and that chivalry and morality were not intended to protect brown and virgin children; that they were sitting at the roots of their own civilization. There are thousands of pure blooded Anglo-Saxon men and women with stunted and dwarfed souls who hate the South for what it has done, not to "miggers" but to them. There are also highly intelligent men who are now outspoken in their criticism of the narrowness and hide bound prejudice which has many in this section within its grip. Up until the present rate in which this narrowness is still being permitted to pollute the minds of the young whites, it will beages before there is sufficient reaction to clarify their mental facilities. But at heart these youth would rather be fair, square and honest and have caused feeling that they were able to give the colored youth the same fair chance without fear of being beaten in the race of life. School Board It as is feared Mayor Brenning fails to send to the City Council one of the applicants or some other member of the group for a place on the Board of School Commissioners it will be a tremendous blow to 112,000 of the city's population. While sound argument involving every principal of fair play, good wholesome government by representation and the word of a Mayor in cause of this very promise, would seem to dictate the wisdom of the appointment, those opposing the appointment of a colored member at this time have advanced but one reason—the desire to keep the present board because it is composed of able and efficient men and women. This argument, if held, would automatically bar the Mayor from until death of some one of the members for every citizen of Baltimore knows that the men and women now on the board are not only able but have served with unusual efficiency. It has also been said that politics is playing a role in the fate of the colored man. That may or may not be true, but what is there to hinder the Mayor from brushing aside politics and sending in the name of some outstanding man of his own selection. Nowhere else in the city government will an act of honest and fair governmental treatment of the 112,000 men and women divided off into a private school system be so productive of good results as in the Board of School Commissioners. The thousands of children in the public schools can never be taught in full effectiveness the basic principles of patriotism so long as they know they are cheated out of fair representation and the text books to believe to be their own fatherland. But more serious than this is the general principle of the thing. Here in Baltimore we have a farcical competitive system of government where all youth are supposed to believe works without prejudice of any kind, but which can be made into industrial and economic corner which almost doubles their death and crime rates. If, as is feared, Mayor Broening fails to send to the City Council one of the applicants or some other member of the group for a place on the Board of School Commissioners it will be a tremendous blow to 112,000 of the city's population. While sound argument involving every principal of fair play, good wholesome government by representation and the word of a Mayer in whom confidence had been re-established because of this very promise, would seem to dictate that the appointment of a colored member at this time have advanced but one reason—the desire to keep the present board because it is composed of able and efficient men and women. This argument, if held, would automatically bar the group from membership on the board because it is not a civic citizen of Baltimore knows that the men and women now on the board are not only able but have served with unusual efficiency. It has also been said that politics is playing a part in the desired appointment of a colored man. That may or may not be true, what here is the case, but it bristles aside politics and sending in the name of some outstanding man of his own selection. Nowhere else in the city government will an act of honest and fair governmental treatment of the 112,000 men and women divided off into a separate school system be so productive of good results as in the Board of School Commission. The thousands of children in the public schools can never be taught in full effectiveness the basic principles of patriotism so long as they know they are cheated out of fair representation in what they are taught in text books to believe to be their own fatherland. But more serious than this is the general principle of the thing. Here in Baltimore we have a school where all youth are supposed to believe works without prejudice of any kind, but which in fact has shunted off this 112,000 citizens into an industrial and economic corner which almost doubles their death and crime rates. As long as the city government twists laws and increases justice to maintain such a travesty, it will be imperative greed and prejudice to bear down its heel upon this group of productive citizens. There is but one question for the Mayor to for such a child as simple justice—justice which will be as valuable as the moral con- idence of the white child as it will be just and right for the colored. There is but one question for the Mayor to face and that is one of simple justice—justice to the moral conscience of the white child as it will be just and right for the colored.

I was somewhat surprised at the amount of space that was given by you to Clarence Darrow's letter, and that he did not know what he was after thinking a moment. I changed my view. I said to myself, the quickest and most effective way of disposing of Mr. Darrow is to give the widest publicity to what he has to say about God, the Bible, prayer, immortality, and kindred subjects. After reading his address, for I read the whole of it, I began thinking about Jesus Christ, the supreme character in history, or as one has hailed him as the god of the world. And in the same way, and the mightiest among the pure" And then I remembered that everyone of the things that Mr. Darrow hadicules, avows his unbelief in Jesus believed in, accepted, taught. He believes in God, and he believes in the faith of God. What value are the affirmations or denials of Mr. Darrow when set over against the affirmations of Christ's Jesus? It is only necessary to present the contrast in order to show in what a ridiculous that people claiming to be sensible should pay the slightest attention to the vaporous of Mr. Darrow with Jesus Christ squarely against him. May be that some of us are so blind as to prefer Darrow to Jesus. It looks that way. Let us hope, however, that reason and common sense may yet prevail, that those who are now bowing to God and worshipping in the same way as the same and at the same sentiments may have the scales tall from their eyes, and that Mr. Darrow himself, like Saul of Tarsus, may see the error of his ways and curse to accept those great ideals, and in fact, to accept those great ideals, he has been the bed-rock piousist in our civilization.

I wish to say in answer to that, that it is not true.

I was somewhat surprised at the amount of space that was given by you to Clarence Darrow's address in Washington. At first I felt sorry, but after thinking a moment I changed my view. I said to myself, the quickest and most effective way of disposing of Mr. Darrow is to give the widest publicity to what he has to say about God, the Bible, prayer, immortality, and kindred subjects. After reading his address, for I read the whole of it, I began thinking about Jesus Christ, the supreme character in history, or as one has hailed him "The purest among the mighty and the mightiest among the pure."

Of what value are the affirmations of Mr. Darrow when set over against the affirmations of Christ? Is it only necessary to present the contrast in order to show in what a ridiculous light Mr. Darrow appears. And it is amazing that people claiming to be sensible should pay the slightest attention to the vaporisms of Mr. Darrow with Jesus Christ squarely against him. The Jews preferred Barabási to Jesus; and it may be that some of us are so blind as to prefer Darrow to Jesus. It looks that way. Let us hope, however, that reason and common sense may yet prevail; that those who are now bowing down and worshipping him in spite of his infidel and atheistic sentiments may have the species rall from their eyes; and that Mr. Darrow himself, like Saul of Tarsus, may see the error of his ways, and come to accept those great ideals, principles, beliefs that have been the bed-rock noblest in our civilization. FRANCIS J. GRIMKE, 1415 Corcoran St., N. W., Washington, D. C. Brother Blair Gives More Self-Contradiction Of The Bible. To the Editor: I have bequeathed me a pamphlet issued by International Bible Students' Association. (Christians): "Religious teachers early in the Christian era, thought it well to frighten the people. Satan intended to do this. Hence they do the same external torque. Borrowed from heathen philosophers. Thus we see, "Satan" no business acumen — the frightens his customers into joining the church and deception on the other ministers have for centuries preached and invigilated his pusillanimous adherents into believing that God. Before he created man, prepared a fire-and-brimstone heil of men, then accommodate all inmates. The fire is the grave of the only man. We are more concerned in the soul-saving business and dying than we are in economics and living. THE RADICTIONS OF THE BIBLE Certain Kind's Animals Allowed for Food We shall not eat anything that death of itself; shall give it unto the stranger that is in thy gate that he may eat it; or may mutilate soil it in the Deer. Do not eat it. And if he eateth which it may eat die; he that toucheth the carcase . . . , and he that eatseth of the carcase of it shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the even. Lev. XI. 39, 40. Nevertheless those shall not eat. They entereth into man, it cannot defile him, because it enterneth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats. St. Mark VII. 18, 19. The carcase of it is meat, it is eaten, so that shall eat them: the unclean and the clean shall eat of them alike. Deut. XII. 22.

To the Editor: I have before me a pamphlet, issued by Inter- national Teachers Association, "Religious teachers early in the Christian era, ought it well to frighten the people. Satan induced them to do this. Hence they brought forth the doctrine of eternal torture, borrowed from the Bible, early in the Christian era. Thus we see "Satan" has no business acumen—the frightens his customers into joining the church. With ignorance on the one hand, and deception on the other, ministers have for certain adherents the right to believe that God before He aided man, prepared a fire-and-burntstone hell of sufficient capacity to accommodate all "sinner's". The truth is the grave is the only hell. We are more concerned in the soul-saving business and deception than in the fire-and-burntstone hell.

Commends Expose of "Uncle Tom Stuff" In Letter From Federation Of Colored Church-of-Maryland, Inc. To the Editor. The white business man who sent to the Afro-American the letter received by him from the Federation of Colored Churches of Maryland is kept confidential and the service he has rendered to the public by this excerpt. There are no words, allowed in print, adequate to express the abhorrence many Negroes feel, and justly, for these pseudo-leaders of the Negroes in the United States, a cusing mode of attempting to obtain funds for, if not a false cause, at least an overworked one. It is to be noticed that although they carry a name, which to the uninformed would mean that they represent all the Negro churches of Maryland, there is yet to be found among them the name of any minister of note. Commends Expose Of "Uncle Tom Stuff" In Commends Of Colored Children Of Maryland, Inc. To the Editor: The white business man who sent to the African American the letter received by him from the University of Maryland land. Inc. is to be commended for the service he has rendered to the public by this exposure. There are no words, allowed in print, adequate for this purpose. It is justly, for these pseudo-leaders of the Negroes of this city, for such a contemptible and disgusting mode of attempting to obtain funds for if not a false cause, at least an overworked one. It is to be noticed that although they carry a name, which to the uninformed would mean Maryland, they represent a long-standing churches of Maryland, that yet to be found among them the name of any minister of note. It is a terrible thing that such ignorances as these should be guardians in the vanguard of a future generation. These are, by their hypothetical God, "will not be capable of coping with the problems that will confront them in future" (Brown, 1994). God will not be capable of coping with the problems that will confront them in future ("Uncle Tom stuff" that seeks throughout this whole abominable letter. Like all men of their type, these holy men try to play upon the emotions by well-known methods. Have they not realized that the members of both races have passed the stage of being affected by such appeals to sentiment? It seems that throughout the history of the Negro in America, the preachers have always endeavored to pose as the leaders of the race. They do not have lead them only too well, in a direction of which we are not proud. They have done more to retard the progress of the Negro than to advance the progress of the white race. Time was when the dominant race wanted to be constantly reminded of its domination; therefore they were always easy prey for such gospel-shooting bandits as these theologians, and methods as are contemptible as they are ancient. Is it not strange that these men who claim to be called by God, whom they supposedly walk with, and talk to, and who know just what God intended for us to do and be, have never been taught how to be. They have dropped each other, they could unite their forces and buy enough homes and equipment to house all the orphans in this state? This God told them who should rule and now superior the ruling class, he should not be dropped unless at least a hint as to how to become (not dependent) merely independent of such charity? The people should devote more time administering to the needs of the body, and leave the remnants of a life that was to the immutable laws of nature. EDWARD V. CLARK. Simple Thoughts.

William Pickens Explains Absence At Neval Thomas Dinner. To The Editor: This is May the 10th. I have read a news story from Washington, D. C. about a banquet that was given to Neval H. Thomas, president of the Association's Branch there, on April 27th. Thomas deserves all the honor which any banquet that and don't forget it—for I have also something else to say. This same news note on to tell how there was a great storm on the banquet night, and added very pointedly that storm did not prevent the notables of Mr. Thomas and then said with the boldest inscription: THE STORM HOWEVER, SEEMED TO HAVE INTERFERED WITH COMMUNICATIONS—MAIL AND TELEGRAPH—AS TELEGRAPH OF REPEAT. I WAS RECEIVED FROM A SINGLE OF PICER OF THE N. A. A. P. Ye gods! I, William Pickers, am a "national officer of the N. A. C. P." and the first I hear of a banquet that took place on April 27th is when I read it in a newspaper two weeks afterwards—and yet the newspaper story blames me for not having put in my dutiful attendance on the occasion. I was not invited—not even notified. And although I am a pretty humble man, I am not in the habit of sending letters or telegrams of "regret" that I cannot be present at social functions to which I have not been invited. Whether any other national officer was invited or notified, I do not know; and I will not ask them before this letter has been published because I want to bear sole responsibility for what is being said here, and if I so much as speak to one of the others, it may seem like inviting them to share the responsibility for what I am going to say. My name is John, and I have been a New Yorker. I have been a unwavering friend to him and his work for the N. A. C. P., that makes me suspect that not a single officer of the Association received an invitation to Mr. Thomas' banquet—because I whom he KNOWS to be a friend, had to get first news of the banquet two weeks after the event in a New Yorked newspaper: The fact that I was not notified nor invited would also seem to indicate that it was not the fault of Thomas but perhaps of the "nuptial of the banquet" arrangements whoever he was. So I am not blaming Thomas but the guilty party, whoever he was,—even if it be Thomas. Can you see through the thing? It is a plain case of organizational sabbage: They who had the authority to invite and to sigh, said in the first instance, "I will invite and then—by God! we can give them hell for not being present." Now, I am always reluctant to charge colored Americans with any SPECIFIC weaknesses—for example, the lack of all races are, on the average, very much alike. But I must say that I am sometimes almost alarmed by the extent of this low type of undercutting, ambushing and bush-whacking. If half the energy which colors Americans are expendible on is being used for defensible falls for each other, was expended in fighting side by side against their common enemies, they would soon become one of the most unbeatable minicities in the world. But they are certainly not the only ones. Nothing could be shrewder than to force a fellow into a situation and then to accuse him for being in that very situation—to refuse him an invitation to your party and then publish something to it make it appear as if he were kept away from own envy or jealousy or something like that. I speak without fear and without reserve—for Thomas knows and other people all over the world that he is the good reputation of Neval Thomas. We all have weaknesses: I have everywhere tried to minimize his. And I am not blaming anyone for not inviting me to the banquet. I am not willing to eat and too much to say. But I am blaming whether it was for charging me with not having come as an uninvited guest. Even if I had acceded to it, I would have heard of the banquet before it took place. I could have sent no word of "regrets" unless I wired that I regretted that I was not invited. Thomas's other friends: You will not do much good for his reputation and advancement by that method. By such cheap cunning and slander, and by a saboteur the very work which you pretend to do, you have hobnobbing for him to impress others and to win new friends for him but you will cause him to lose the sincere feelings. He has hears: for not all men will be as confident as he is, conclude that this mistake was not really made by Mr. Thomas but by some of his erring friends who were trying to help him by a little camouflage. He has too obvious and too ordinary process of telling or insinuating lies about other men. That unsophisticated chap like me might have told the simple truth—and that would spoil everything. Seriously: Ston the sabotage! The N. A. C. P. is an INSTITUTION: its life is indefinite. The N. A. C. P. will pass with the decades. We need the institution; we can tolerate the episodes. This West Pointer Doesn't Think Much of Younger Generation Of Our Group. To The Editor: Being a constant reader of your forum, and being a constant problem solver in these problems here, I have several observations in which would prove the greatest problem confronting the Negro is what is to become of him as a race. Is he to be exterminated by sheer force and strength of the stronger or is it to be assimilated? If he is to be forced to a force and courage to unite and defy the enemy? Because the Negro is so divided, his problem is a momentous one. There are the old school race men, the youth group and the middles aged thinker, the old school group and the middles aged in morals and impossible desires and were more dependable, they could aid their race a great deal. But they are more a hindrance than help in solving the problem. The middles aged group, those born in the 80% that the progress of the race is due. This noble far-sighted group is at present fighting the problems that the old school is afraid to attack—problems that the youth are too irresponsible to care about. There are many things that the race can overcome, but the race succeed—no other race can or will help them, and united action is their only way to succeed. The greatest problem confronting the Negro is what is to become of him as a race. Is he to have been subjected to sheer force and strength of the stronger, the stronger and the assimilated. Is he to live has he force and courage to unite and defy the enemy? Because the Negro is so divided, his problem is a matter of self-esteem. He must be the youth group and the middle aged thinkers. If the younger people were not so lacking in morals and impossible desires and were more dependable, they could aid their race a great deal. They would have a hindrance than help in solving the problem. It is to this last named group, those born in the 80's that the progress of the race is due. This group is the most dependent on problems that the old school is afraid to attack—problems that the youth are too irresponsible to care about. There are many things that the race must do themselves will succeed—no longer face cancer will kill them, and united action is their only way to succeed. The greatest problem confronting the Negro is what is to be overcome of him as a race. Is he the strongest of the race or is he to be assimilated? If he is to live has he force and courage to unite and defy the enemy? Because the Negro is so divided, his problem is a matter of strength and determination of the youth group and the middle aged thinkers. If the younger people were not so lacking in morals and impossible desires and were more dependable, they could aid their race a great deal. If they were more a hindrance than help in solving the problem. It is to this last named group, those born in the 80's that the progress of the race is due. This weighted group is at present fighting the problems that the youth are facing and problems that the youth are too irresponsible to care about. There are many things that the race must do themselves if they would succeed—no other race can or will help them, and united action is therefore the only way to solve the problem. JULIAN B.

Northern Negroes Claiming Their Long-Denied Rights (The Columbia State) The Columbia State University is the only university of a century since a Negro had a seat in Congress. Opportunity is at hand or breaking the long record established by Martin B. Madden, who died suddenly in Washington a few days ago, represented a district in Chicago that has become an almost solid Negro district. Even at the time of his last election and despite his long and successful career, party there was opposition to Mr. Madden's being the representative from the First Illinois district. Negro students in that district their race should be the beneficiary of their votes. Now that the death of Mr. Madden has created a vacancy, no other white student will be eligible to represent of honor sufficiently strong to offset the demands of the Negroes for representation in congress, and it is fairly certain a Negro will be elected. The Harlem section of New York will probably have a Negro in congress before long, and Philadelphia This, we think, is entirely as it should be. The Negroes have been more than a half century; the Republican party has conceded them nothing that a white Republican could possibly have, the crumbs first hand. Not once in this long half-century has the Republican party proposed that any Negro have a Negro congressman. Not once have Republican whites offered to cast their votes to reward some memorial and faithful support of the Republican party. Now, having the power, Negroes are now a congress. They should really have two representatives, each from Illinois, Pennsylvania and New York. They should have a Republican dare stand in their war! (World Unity Magazine) The duality between democratic ideals at home and conquest abroad—whether the aim of conquest be political, economic, cultural or religious—perhaps is the most peril which all the nations, apparently, have voluntarily accepted at the present time. The nation is urgent than that ordinary people become aware of the inevitable outcome. Our political status today depends upon foreign relations, and foreign policy, in fact, is the mirror which most accurately reflects the degree of democracy actually being possessed by force of habit, create acceptable pretenses that democracy has more than one way to be served; an unjust foreign policy trips all sham universities of life and death. The reality which can never be overcome is the blood, one organism, one kind. Single-mindedness, integrity, can only be attained in public affairs if we have a shared humanity, a manent and inevitable distinction between "our people" and all other people, and a shared injustice, abroad invariably establishes injustice at home — whereby, sooner or later, we shall learn the sanctity and universality of spiritual justice. "THE AFRO CARRIES MORE NEWS THAN ANY OTHER WEEKLY." -Gordon 1927. Survey. Saturday, May 19, 1928. BY RALPH MATTHEWS Our Mr. Snoozelfitis, ever on the alert, to do something to make the world a better place in which to live, since we might as well make up our minds to stay here, has informed us a small pinch of this wonderful new confection sprinkled on the food or dropped in the coffee will make it possible for people to go for days without having to eat. The reason the world is so far behind him, he points out, is because much valuable time is lost in sleep that could be spent at the movies or this discovery will benefit humanity in numerous ways he says. First, it will deter crime because most of the robberies, burglaries and shootings are done while people are asleep and if it is not done at night, criminals will have to go to work. With all the criminals working and leaking, and the police force of cities can be reduced one-half and taxes will be lower. Factories, office buildings and plants can fire all the night watchhead, and goods will be sold cheaper. Besides the economic benefits to be derived from everybody's staying home, they are greatly helped. Many of the divorces of today can be traced directly to the fact that husbands snore in their sleep. The other husbands a little sleep preventer, snores will be done away with and their married life will be one continual round of happiness. On the other hand, husbands cannot bear to see their wives when they first get up in the morning with rings under their eyes wearing night gowns. The husband will have with there will be no need to get up the morning because nobody will go bed. Many wives who are perfectly willified will wear handkerchiefs and handkerchiefs, balk at washing the bed sheets, thus many homes are broken up. With no sleep there would be no sheets to wash. The youngest girls each year? Why do children leave home? Simply because their parents want to sleep after midnight when the youngsters are having a contest and their fun is broken up. Sleeping parents are to blame for insulting children are subjected to in the home, because they are awake when they ought to be awake when they ought to be awake. Mr. Snookiezfitz is much enthused over his new discovery and declares that he is placed on the mark as soon as he can find the necessary ingredients to bring about the desired results.

I quarrel not with any creed. This world has room enough to spare. For you, with your squabble, a kindly heart is always fair. No matter what its caste or breed, he plays the friend from day to day. Who sometimes puts himself aside. To do this, he squabbles. Who scorns the arrogance of pride. However he may choose to pray. I'm sure will never be denied. For man must live his life on earth. Where hate and sin and wrong abound. To do this the soul must prove its worth. This the strength of it is found. And he has justified his birth. Who plants one rose on barren ground.

McMILLAN Baltimore is a city of white steps—marble or wood painted white. And wood indications Ballet loves their steps. They no end time and labor spent in resourcing or preserving the natural appearance of these steps. In this effort all steps are insisted on the smallest and the largest, the youngest and the oldest engage in the common industry of scrubbing steps. Incidentally, you see every imaginable variety of position form, gait, pad and tub and grades of labor. Country Town Baltimore is a big country town consisting of long rows of monotonous buildings that extend and occupy a building all to himself; hence the low flat single houses and the extended area covered by the corporation. (42,350 square feet) are cheap, noisy; is in a hurry in Baltimore save visitors; intoxicated and gnawing through some colored section. They resume their free slow pace upon entering other sections. When the street car conductor says "You are a mediated body," he means anywhere from five to fifteen minutes. Next Monument The monument constructed in Baltimore will be "the unknown hero." All known characters, called "great" by this monumental city, have already been honored in stone. It is mediated through least in one thing Baltimore is initiating classic Athens. Flowers and grasses are grown in Baltimore's nature's sake"; but it could be that, Baltimoreans consider hard white steps and loud-colored cushions of first importance. They are at least two feet tall. Baltimore has many children. They are all happy. They play any. They get fun out of anything. Lacks Sense Of Humor Baltimore's lack of a sense of humor difficult to draw a deep natural laugh on any point and concerning any persons. The people are seriously pained by the innocent jests for forceful attacks. Here you are expected to mean all that you say. In this regard the Baltimore situation is perfectible. He is literal. No Intelligentsia "The city" of Baltimore has no real intelligence. In Baltimore the city stands in a quest. club standing acquires position serves as a fertilizer to thin beards, an extra stimulus to backbones, physical, an increase in club membership, experts in kindred endeavors. Literary clubs, large private libraries, circulating private libraries, greed for new boots and standard magazines, definite goals, longing in moving personalities. Baltimore looked in vain for her share. Platform Seats At big public meetings in Baltimore more only the rear seats are vacant. Platforms are never too large—places of "don't know me" use. "Don't you know me?" "No, I do not." "Where have you been all the time not to know me?" — an excerpt from a recent conversation. The man's name is Barbara. The following is taken from a conversation with an old Baltimore now living in Wilmington, Delaware. I had inquired about Barbara more. The lady in question see out to give me a thorough examination—"Are you acquainted on Druid Hill?" "Yes." "What course you know young X, the son of Mrs. Y." "No, I do not seem to know him." "Why, that is strange." They are people whom you are supposed to know. "F B." — First Families of Baltimore The Baltimore Negro has a malaise which诗性地 terms "conservation" would be a truer description. Basking in an unreal summer sky and resting in a similar "golden grove" individuals might bring to the room the are thoroughly indifferent and deadly satisfied. It is appalling to know how lacking the "country's biggest leadership that can provide a leadership by fundamental dissatisfaction an eagerness to live normally and fully in the present and hope for the future" can animate an live Poe old sleeping Baltimore. The youngster asks, "Why is it that Negroes are barred from the lovely bushes on Charles street?" The youngster asks, "What like that all the time, ever since the bushes were first put on the line. Again, the youngster. "Why is it that the white high school has a plot of young people nowadays school has no play ground and athletic field?" "We have a million dollar building"; we ought to be more grateful! Again. "Why separate young people nowadays such siltly questions; we want to be separated as we always have been." So young people nowadays go to resorts, in the winter they go to resorts, in the winter they go to resorts, always neutral, always harmless, always neutral, for a good name, in Baltimore is rather to be cheerful or little or much freedom. Baltimore has three remarkable assets: (1.) Large numbers of honest, faithful, believing common people. Our work is too humble for them; nor do we need the various appeals for help and patronage—so far as in their power lies. Countless churches, secret orders, enterprises survive because of their work; nor do they camp, they are deprived of the inspiration of witnessing and participating in a goodly number of successful businesses because of a narrow, self-centered leadership. (2.) Family life — Baltimoreans love their homes. The life of the old slow "village" centers around the family, where the mothers are allowed the privilege of training in the home with their children much of the time; others are forced by low wages paid their husbands to work in service, some marry and others live in the Baltimore centers around the home. Family attachments, neighborliness, exchange of visits — including meals — are common experiences. (3.) Knowing Youth — growing Youth. (4.) Kellogg Mission that the important thing is to create open- On Censuring The Student Publication One of the greatest problems in the modern institution of learning is to keep a proper balance between the factors of uninterested development and discipline of the student's mental and physical forces. The problem arising out of recens publication in a paper of serious criticism of members of the faculty at Howard University presents a case involving the most vital aspects of this vexing problem. Shall the institution suppress by rule that which the editor of a student paper would say, or shall that free expression may even if that free expression may result in serious consequences. Applying the most modern methods of education to a solution of the problem of the widest extent that the wisest course for all students to take is that of free expression. The school life should, of course, be prepared to educate the student into safe channels, less the straight jacket methods are used the more thoroughly it is prepared to graduate into an actual job, the student will be no inhibitions except when up in his or her own consciousness. There is also an aspect of the matter of journalism if the student which must be taken into the reckoning. In life it is presumed that with free expression and open communication the responsibility for the truthfulness of his writings and must suffer if either by indulgence of an ignorant injury to any one enforced, or why we have label laws. It is important that this be brought home to the student in school when he or she would be in actual life. On whole it would seem best to allow open and full expression in school at the same time hold to strenge any unjust or librarian With the administration grant in hand, you may become an excellent chance to set a precedence in school, given that good and good for reaching results. Blease Victim Of Love Complex, Says Palestine Wells By PALESTINE WELLS So our friend, Cole, I shall say in the war path again, judging that what he says one cannot call, that he certainly is a trigger, never, to give me for using the expression "however I wonder what a present-analyst would have to say about his feelings toward the Negro? You know I rather fancy that he would make some interesting discovery. For example, I think it must be a long-negrophobia, is one entirely to a complex. Let us say, for example, that his conscious mind is unable to accept a subconscious love, a yearning to associate with black folk. As a result of such a mental, rare, we have a conflict that is expressed in his seething hatred in Negroes. How the white folk must have shuddered at the terrible pressure he painting, showing the results of treating the Negro as a human being instead of a circus freak. But after all how groundless is this fear! Poor Bleas, you need the breath he wasted. His picture would have the world believed, but we think of it, we never would ever think of it, we never would ever have the whole horror upon our bed, and white brethren as South in most are in the habit of using upon such unfortunate blacks and a few whites as fall into their blood-churn clutches. How can he have failed to overlook the fact that among other things, the violence is one of the many things in this country reserved for whites only? The little story about the colorful fellow who married the white and was rather amusing to say the less. The poor little black boy was a star. The poor little black boy was a star. Please knows any more like that. Some how I have a snapping suspicion that there must have been a blackberry on the mother's family tree also, for that suspicion to have been black, probably to have been from a kind of business that is reaching slammy proportions in the South. The black's grandfather was a victim of that malady. Thousands of white men were from the same kind of business that is very fair maternal relations, evidently were blind to color when they mistook the ducky slave girls for magnolia skinned southern belles. Intermarriage is a miracle to white America. Does it not seem just possible that they need to cut another word? Just so just as there are white men in this country, there are two hundred years they have developed a peculiar hammers after Negro women. During that same period white women secretly cherished learning, learning that they were determined by court or clergy. Since the whites are in the majority they will continue to exploit us. They howay against intermarriage not because they afraid we will want them; then they will be forced to offer honest and honorable motives for seeking on black women. Then their women can no longer hide behind that old race men to cover up illicit love affairs with Suffice it is to say: that I know my grand-daughters will all be husbands, and I know the national institution. Poor thines, think how they have to struggle to get a husband with only a wife, the colorist, after a divorce. I know I am kleege! the man she wanted but the white in conclusion may I suggest to Mr. Blease, that a strong desire carbolic would work with her contact in with black folks. Down below the heat turns everything and everybody black so he couldn't roll the black imps from the white ones. ines, and that men will soon be prepared to serve according to the need. the fresh, fresh, fresh, youth. It is a refreshing experience to go through the streets in all sections and hear and them. They are sufficient resources to build on something that they are needed to do. For Whites Opportunity in Baltimore still means "for whites"; so do beautiful homes, educational exposures.

When in 1920, Mme. Casse decided to leave her paris ateller and her friends in Provence to spend two years in the French countryside, and finally herself in Guadeloupe. She brought twenty-four canvases, which were exhibited in the Georges Petit Gallery, thanks to the initiative of M. M. Andre Schoeller. Several of these paintings of 1922 excited the keenest admiration. Guadeloupe "What nature would can be more exciting, more grand than this Guadeloupe as rendered by Mme. Casse with its volcano summits clad in green and violet, and from which shoots fire from the burning heart of our planet; emerald isle suspended as it were in a tropic sapphire, capped by soft breezes, and inhabited by tight people, a mixture of three races. "Perfect of muscles and of form as the Greek islands are these women on the canvasses of Mme. Casse. Perfect because the women of these islands, carry as did the Greek women, the basket and the amphora on the head of the hummingbird on the sea and from the sea to the mountain, women rich with a blood which flows voluptuously under their skins of amber and ebony. "These women of Guadeloupe and Martinique, with their bright cotton dresses and silk bandannas are still the living models of the eternal Vendetta, the loveliest and warmest perpetually being renewed through the action of sun, volcano, forest and sea. Lafcadio Hearn in literature, Daniel Thaly in poetry, and Germaine Casse in painting have opened to old Europe the new doors of this paradise of beauty. "Daughter of beautiful Guadeloupe, Mme. Casse has given back to her mama she will all love and loved it. Because she brought to it all the sensuous beauty of light and of lines of esthetic France." There is a total of 145 pieces in the exhibit, all the work of Mme. Casse. The majority of subjects, as was said, deal with the West Indies, but there are several of Provence Bretagne, North Africa, and Southern France. Mme. Casse, who is probably not very well known also as a writer of ability. She is contributor to several art periodicals, as well as director of the journal of the Society of West Indian artists.

REGENT Pennsylvania Ave., opposite Pitcher St. MONDAY—TUESDAY—WEDNESDAY THE MEN Page Eight UNION HALTS D. C. 'FLO' MILLS SHOW Howard Theatre Calls Benefit Off When Theatrical Alliance Interferes "Bojangles" Robinson, Promoter, Fails To Appear WASHINGTON. — Organized labor stopped the midnight show for the benefit of the Florence Mills memorial fund at the Howard Theatre, last Tuesday night. Bill (Bojangles) Robinson telegraphed from New York City, Tuesday night, that he would be unable to come here for the performance. He had promised positively to appease Calls Show Off Rather than have the theatre-going public disappointed by the failure of advertised stars to appear, the Howard Theatre management called the show over. Over $1,200 was refueled by bake sales. Fred Pelham, business agent of the U Street local of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees and Moving Picture Machine Operators, and Joseph R. Branson, of the American Association of Music, believed to have boiled "Boijangles" to decide route to come to Washington. They notified all acts, which were advertised to appear, that there is a road call against the Howard Theatre and that any member of affiliated organizations in this issue would be subject to action by his organization. Every act on the program belonged to one of the affiliated organizations, the National Vaudeville Artists Association of Actors' Equity, which are affiliated with the American Federation of La- Besides "Bojangles" stars advertised to appear included: Jack Peeper and Joe Bombrest, two musical players and a group of players from the National Theatre players, a stage revue from the Fox Theatre and a stage revue from Goeves Pictures. S. H. Dudley was to have been master of ceremonies. Theatre On Blacklist When the International Alliance became active, "Bojangles" was in Chicago. He had telegraphed that he would positively appear. Pelham wired the Chicago Local, and "Bojangles" was advised that the Howard Theatre is on the organized labor blacklist. "Bojangles" wired the manager of the Howard Theatre, Tuesday night, saying in part: "After being billed and promising positively to appear tonight for the Florence Mills memorial, the emergency arose and he means much by reading readily understand. Mr. Low Leslie, Florence Mills' former manager, has engaged me to join the famous 'Blackbirds' to perpetuate the name Miss Mills made famous. Open immediately. This was the second time that "Bojangles" has disappointed Washington audiences. He did something a year ago. He was billed much at the Lincoln Theatre in a Sunday midnight show but cancelled his engagement after he was shown a road call against that house. Both the Lincoln and Howard theatres are operated by the same interests. The Howard Theatre was not interested financially in the Florence Mills memorial fund show. The use of the theatre and the services of the theater were not operated. E. Lehman director of the Howard and Lincoln Theatres, declared Wednesday. He was furious because of the action of Pelham. If Pelham "has anything against me or my theatres why take it out on the Florence Mills memorial," asked. This afterward was directed to this statement. Mr. Pelham said that they had nothing against the Florence Mills Memorial Fund. He stated that they had pointed out to Barrington Carter and Bob Slater, both of New York, who arranged for the memorial to be held in the Republic, the Belasco, Keith's and the Strand, could be used.

THINGS THEATRICAL THINGS THEATRICAL By OBIE McCOLLUM Losing And Gaining Baltimore theater goers, who have been found responsive to the Regent's forward step in bringing them the latest in entertainment, the Viaphone, have also lost something. The Symphonic Orchestra in the pit for the past eight months, is out for the summer. Organized with additions from the former Royal Theatre Orchestra by Isaiah N. Thompson, one of the proponents, is the Malmquist self as a leader of purveying jazz and classic music. Now that the Regent is bringing "talking movies" to its patrons, the orchestra has been out 10 days, and already some of the productions are playing with other aggregations. While Baltimore may be expected to welcome the innovation in auditory photoplays and features with varying degrees of enthusiasm, few, if any, will note the absence of the group without a touch of regret. There's hoping the orchestra returns. On Getting A Mate Out in Chicago, mid-western city whose inhabitants are looked upon by easterners as corned or bandits, something has happened. George D.

Spotlights For "Colored" While extremely successful in fooling patrons about the ages of prima donna and chorines in many instances, when it comes to specific knowledge of use of the fire craft is decidedly lacking. In white houses, the larger ones in particular, spotlight operators have attained an advanced degree of finesse in throwing the proper kind of fire, and play the performers. Unfortunately, the masses of color present in the average race show do not appear to advantage in the brilliance thrown upon them by operators who, at best, are either guessing or following cues given that they are not aware of when definite chart of colors is developed, as there certainly will be in time, credit for it should go to race operators.

Waltz Impossible In African Music MONROVIA. Liberia—The waltz is an impossible music form in the African perception of rhythm, according to N. G. J. Ballanta Taylor, young musician and author, who returned to the University of Chicago under Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett at Hampon Institute in the States. Writing in the current issue of the Educational Outlook here, Mr. Taylor declares that the African does not understand how to divide the num- bers of positive integers, because any such division will still retain the triple idea. The writer continues: "The African idea of a trinity is unity. It is indivisible. In his per-ception of Quality are found the same phenom- enas as is observed in the relationship of day and night, strong and weak, masculine and feminine, and so on, which exists in nature. This dual phase of his rhythmic perception is not dislike of whatsoever may be the subject of the application of sub- rhythm forms. "A similar perception is found in his system of tone relationships. There are two phases of tonal relationship, one of which is described as active, and the other, passive. In his musical expressions he makes tonal motions from one active tone to one passive tone and vice versa."

DANGER ENVY PARIS DANDIES Eddie Burke Sensation In French Theatres With Blonde Polish Partner IS NATIVE OF BOSTON Act Would Cause Riot In America, Rogers Says (BY J. A. ROGERS) PARIS. — Appearing at the present time at the Empire Theatre is Eddie Burks, dandy song and dance artist. Mr. Burks is one of the fifties cancers, on the stage today, and dresses a manner, both on and off stages that excites the envy of the crowd. A lady who was sitting near the AFRO correspondent, on seeing Mr. Burks dance, continued to explain "Quel chic garçon," Quel beau dancer," and finally asked him whether Mr. Burks was from Martineau Lafayette or Mr. Burks in the dressing room and told him of the incident he said: "I hope you told me where I was from." He is a native of Boston, Mass. Eddie Burks has appeared in most of the leading vaudeville houses in Paris as well as at some of the leading theatres and cabaret's, among them boasts andanies. Pursuing Zellie's, Jane Auberts, she do Opera, and at the National House. Gets English Contract He has also danced on the Riviera at Maxim's, Miami, Macau and Cannes. He showed me his monthly contract, with the Pauction in London, England, during which time he is to appear at the Trocadero Club. He has received offers to appear in Madrid and Milan and while he is not married, his material agent came in eager to his services for a new cabaret to be opened in Montmartre. Known In America He is also well-known on the American vaudeville stage, having canned on the B. P. Keith Western Circus, appearing at the Palace at 6th and Goodway. For four years he was at the Cotton Club, New York City. Most of his act is, usually done alone: the rest is with his dancing partner, Mile Halaina Dorshyna from Poland. Opposites of social equality and their etheres among the colored ones will be the ones he get a colored woman to dance with him? So it might be easy to explain that, that also is a part of the novelty. He is dark, she very fair, and the simple-minded Europeans seeing few Negroes really think they are a similar instance in Britain where a Negro named Wellman was dancing at the leading vaudeville house there with his wife, an Englishman, and the simple-minded Dutchmen that the pair billed as a "Black and White Act." They do not know that the Negroes, such a dance would be the real novelty, a sensation, except the Negro appeared as a clown or flunkey. Blonde Partner Later the AFRO representative saw Mile Dorcas, a supple, shapely boudo in her dressing room. She was enthusiastic about the dancing her partner, and is looking eagerly forward to the time when Mr. Burks is returning to America to appear with him there. The AFRO reporter and her that she felt sure that she would have welcomed heed that there would be a RIOT. Further into the truth, he did not have the heart to go. Mr. Burks is booked by William Morris.

Lure Of Stage Wins Out When Juanita Brown Attempts To Ouit Footlights For Hospital Musician's Trail By CARL DITON, for ANP. Marshall, Houston, Prairie View, Aus tin, Texas, Shreveport, La. Nothing is more pleasant than to spend a concert week-end at a school when they are not busy at work and from Friday to Monday is quite a span in time unless there is something to keep the mind occupied. So at an educational institution where there are several hundred people housed on the same premises is often an opportunity to diversion. It happened to be the day for the Colonel Young Memorial Exercises the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity celebrates annually. The Wiley Chapter of this organization presented a spectacle that would have done all the brothers were similarly dressed and entered the Auditorium after muted "Taps" were blown to the strains of the Chopin Funeral March played by me on the pipe organ. The seating on the stage was semi-circular with an electrically lighted enclosure. There were one or two musical numbers and an enthusiastic address made by a visiting brother speaker. At my Shreveport concert a splendid audience was assembled and it was certainly glad to meet my old friend Brown, my local manager and the present principal of the School Brown, I am and William College was all associated at Wiley College in the school year 1914-1915. Quartet Raiser Then he is musical, you know. He has composed numerous skirts for male quartets. In fact, for a good many years he trained male quartets. He has 4 young sons. Now wouldn't it be a coincidence indeed if their eloices turned out better if they were to consider Brown not only as a quartet trainer but a quartet raiser wouldn't we? At Houston, Texas, a newly organized men's, lycme presented me to a very enthusiastic audience in the Wesley Temple A. M. E. Church and the Stainley was again placed at my disposal. I found unimaginatively progressive business spirit the matter of office building and equipment. PRAIRIE NEW COLLEGE Prairie View School is located at Prairie View High School, a large institution and always has a large audience. The hospitality of President and Mrs Banks was above the ordinary and there is a fine little musician there in charge of the music in the person of Miss Novelle. One of the most beautifully arranged concerts I have ever had was given at Austin. There were stage decorations, perfect programs, a large Mason and Hamill grand piano, but no crowd in the fact that the man was given under the auspices of the Roland Hays Music Club. So my sympathy went out to Roland Hayes as well as to myself. "JO" BAKER REVUE "FLOP" VENIEN. — The Josephine Baker revue presented here with the sensational American dancer, was declared by managers to have been a financial "flop". --- THIS WEEK UNTIL SUNDAY MIDNIGHT GERTRUDE SAUNDERS in "ROLLING ON" If you were faced with the alternative of living a life fruitful with opportunity, or one in which the struggle for existence was a more serious battle than which you choose, the form of course. But when Juanita Brown came to this milestone in life, she chose the latter. Juanita, you know, is one of the musees' favorites of the ladies of the ensemble, having played here repeatedly. Retuses To "Go White" To Juanta nature gave the racial features of the dominating group,—the whites. But despite the fact that her skin is fairer than many of the vaunted Nordics and her bobbed hair reveals none of her African strain, Juanta chooses to cast her lot with the folk she terms "my people." For a while, she admits, she lived with an aunt who is a bona fide Caucasian, but, as she explains, she was happily married. Perhaps her lineage had something to do with it, but nevertheless, hers is a simple philosophy. With a simple and unaffected outlook upon life, and a natural liking for dark men, she prefers just "being colored." Her story? It goes back to New York in the 1920s. Old World quaintness and city of variegated racial types. Well, it's the old story. Her father was white and her mother was colored. Of either she knew but little, for they died when she was three years old. Reared By Relatives Ar-orphan, she was sent to live with her father, who lived in towns in Mississippi until she was nine years old. Then deserting the South she went to New York, where she has made her home most of the time since. Toward the close of the World War, in 1917, she was married to Brother Brown in the beginning of her brother's stage career, she worked in St. Louis at the National and Faistaff cabarets. Later she moved northward and tried a season at the Little Club, Chicago. Last year, Juanta was one of the entertainers at Barron Wilkins' night club. There is a little daughter, Dorothy, who will be four years old in June. "Want my daughter to go on the stage? No. I don't. But we are not always ordained to order the lives of others." So little Dorothy passes her juvenile life with relatives in New-York, while her mother dances before the glittering footlights. There are, of course, brief periods when the moth- MUSIC FEDERATION MEETS NEXT WEEK MUSIC FEDERATION MEETS NEXT WEEK Baltimore Local To Send No Delegate To Conference at Louisville Ky.

Metropolitan critics are divided on the question of the merits of the piece, particularly where the music and comedy are concerned. Walter Winchell, of the Graphic, however, writes in the dazzling (Bojangles) Robinson. He writes of the dancer: "He provided the wallop again last evening, even if he did muff the lyrics, but Robinson was a last-moment recruit, and he not only redeemed himself by registering solidly, but he returned in a number with his HK team, added a face with his momentum he started. His stewardship is a most fascinating routine and it drew tremendous handlapping. Poor Comedy "But there are several other high spots in "Blackbirds". The dancers dominate the proceedings and there is an abundance of expert stepping. The humor, however, was great. The sketches, then, mar what might have been a better summer revue. Tim Moore managed to supply a chuckle or so with his material and the upper-floor patrons seemed perfectly satisfied. The musicians whatever speed the specialists aroused and left you cold. Hip Flippers "There is a good-looking ensemble of brownskins, whose hip flipping thigh grinding and torso tossing found appeal, and the production has class. It is a more entertaining revue than some of the other plays, and its singing and stepping go, but the anemic sketches will hamper the attraction's chances for satisfying office returns." Need Drinks To Like Show Writing in the New York World, Alexander Woolcott frowns upon the production as suitable and substantial entertainment, gives his esthetic revue in: They tell me that the greater part of it was recently most successful as the midnight entertainment at a cabaret in the Frenetic Fifties. I can easily understand that it would seem more appropriate. "The Blackbirds of 1928" is just a third-rate Broadway musical show tinted brown. Praises "Bolangles" "Bill Robinson walks nattily on and after bowing right and left in response to the huzzas of a seemingly enormous following, proceeds to justify and increase them by dancing as expert and tickling and delightful a tap dance as you may know, a tap dance as you may not sound in all the noisy, fragrant evening which approaches in gayety and infectiousness the neat confiding whisper of his gifted shoon to that delighted stage."

She possesses a splendid fine sense of grace in appearance, brilliant in attainment, Miss Ellis is possessed of unusual qualities that make her work as a dramatic reader singularly distinctive.

Welfare Organizations Branded As Meddlers In Domestic Affairs For the first time in the history of the institution the Grand Jury returned a favorable report on school work at the Reform School for Colored Boys at Cheltenham. According to the report of the committee which visited the institution on March 1, all boys under the age of 65 were found in class rooms here, being instructed in regular-organized classes by apparently competent teachers. "The instructors seemed gentlemanly and efficient and lacked all semblance of the 'hard-bolled' type powerful town in such institutions," the report says. Learn Trades Older boys were found at work in the tailor shop under a practical tailor and seemed contented in their work. Other youths were found in the workshop, where they were being ably taught. The committee recommended the abolishment of the broom factory and advised that a practical carpenter be placed in the carpenter shop, which should be more modernly equipped. Skimmed Milk Only There were 276 boys placed at the institution during the year, three of them were in the first grade, two of the fact that there are 30 cows on the farms, the boys get, very little milk and that only of the skimmed milk it was recommended that more nurturing food be given and that the inmates be given stews of beef or mutton at the women's Attendants. Bread, which is baked in the school oven, was found to be of a very inferior quality. The Guard Jury that women be employed in place of some of the men to care for the smaller boys and the Guard Jury that women the body did not endorse the change. The Jury returned a favorable report on the House of Good Shepherd Training School For Girls at Melvale. Score Alimony Practice The Grand Jury looked with disdain for the method employed by welfare organizations in handling non-support cases. "While few cases have been dismissed without due consideration," he said. "We find that there is a tendency among young women to parade their husbands in court on the slightest excuse. And while those who appear before the body always plead poverty and distress, very few are found to be in that predicament." "There is too much interference from outside organizations and people who take it upon themselves to settle other people's troubles." Foreign Born Menace The foreign born element is a source of lawlessness and because of their distorted views of life which they put into practice, they are a menace to law-abiding citizens. The ignorance found in this element makes them fit and fruitful recruits for the formation of organized criminal gangs. The Grand Jury also advised the granting of fewer paroles and more rigid treatment in the penitentiary because under present conditions criminals have no fear of returning to the institution.

THE HOME OF THE MAYFIELD MUSEUM BLACK SOX SPLIT BILL WITH TIGERS Page Twelve WIN FIRST GAME BUT SUCCUMB IN SEC'ND CONTEST Yokely Robbed Of Shutout In Opener As Locals Cop Game, 9-1 TIGERS SLAM MECLURE TO ALL CORNERS OF LOT Jackson, Holloway, Washington, And Taylor Have Gala Day SUNDAY'S HEROES Hollins Washington Holloway The Baltimore Black Sox and the Philadelphia Tigers divided a double bill at Maryland Park. Sunday afternoon, the locals copping handily in the opener, 9-1, but dropping the nightcap in a slurfest. 12 to 8. Washington and Holloway covered themselves with the traditional glory. Sunday, playing errless ball and sparking with the stick. Washington handled three chances, made four hits, two of which were doubles, drove in three stoles, stole two bases, and scored one run himself. Holloway handled seven chances without error, made four hits, two of which were doubles, hit a sacrifice fly, drove in four runs, and scored three runs himself. Layman Yokely, with his speed ball behind him, hit his surely, ascend the break in the opener and held the Lucas can in five maser singles, and but for an error by Dixon in the sixth wicket, added another strike. While he was keeping the Bengals dizzy, his mates were nicking Bengues for an even dozen games of white ball against surplus sacks. The Tigers gave the Sox an additional advantage and they scored three runs in the other and four in the sixth, in other two tailbacks in the first and crashes. Taylor Clears Sacks Jackson scored the first run of the game when he crossed the pan, after doubling and then tripping the ball when "Babe" Wilson kicked the pill for two hassles. With Wilson, Washington danced on on one foot, down on the other. Ben Taylor stepped up with his trusty bludgeon and sacked an apple for blow, blow, clearing it in the third. Figure Score In Sixth The Tigers scored in their half of the sixth. G. Johnson of Texas images the game between secondey Holloway, pitched. Allen fled to Holloway. Gomez hit to Jackson and nailed him at the Dixen. Jackson hit Dixen, who dropped the ball, after what seemed a sure catch, allowing Johnson to score. Downs was an easy out, Jackson to Sex Get Four The locals counted a quartet of tallies in their half of the Taylor was out of bounds, the scraper walked, the Scrappy Brown singled and went to second when G. Johnson made it to turn of the ball, the Brown scraper booted Yokel's scraper. Jackson kicked out to left-field. Holloway doubled to base. Beneteau, Wilson, and Washington doubled, scoring Yokel and Holloway. Dixon rounded out. Jackson Shines Neither team scored in the remaining half. Neither team had thought out a triple in the eighth, but was caught trying to steal ball back both games was sensational as the banged up ball was another a double, scored 3 runs, stole 1 base, made 1 miss, made 2 assists. Some of the chances that that took looked good and at back Taylor up with lightning med out a triple in the eighth, but was caught trying to boot Jackson's play during both games was sensational as he banged out fills, oust Trub another a double, scored 3 runs, stole 1 base, made nine shots and still ussists. Some of the chances that he took hooked almost, impossible, made times he would bud up or up at first, making the shift with lightning-like rapidity. Second Game The nightcap, after running smoothly for five innings, was broken into a slugger when the Tigers showed three runs across the pan in the sixth and scored seven more in their half of the ninth. McChure was taken and they knocked him to all corners of the lot, garnering 18 hits. McClure Helpless The first pitched ball that he offered the batsmen in the ninth was usually snacked, the Tigers being too impatient to wait on him. The ninth was first, for McCure had nothing on the ball to baffle the batsmen and they accordingly had no mercy on him. He walked five men and struck him in the midnight, allowed 10 hits, struck out 10 batters and walked three. Yancy hit a triple with the bases loaded in the ninth. Rally Too Late The Sox slagged a belated rally in their half of the ninth, netting six runs. They overtake the lead held by the Tigers-Dixon walked, and Taylor singled. Eggleton went to first on W. Johnson, batting for McChuire, batting for McChuire, walked, and the hassocks were intoxicated. Jackson, with a couple on him, and he missed the last one by inches. Holloway singled, scoring "Clark" and Eggleton. Clark Call VE rnon 6016 having batted for Brown. Wilson fled to centerfield, Washington singled and Dixon duplicated, three more runs coming in.

This was the kind of crowd that saw the Giants wallop Detroit, Sunday, packing grandstand and blinding the sun in the crowd; only the west stand was empty, fans preferring to spill out over the field in the sun rather than sit in the bleachers. The weather here on Lake Michigan is cold and raw. Everybody wears overcoats and at home keeps the furnace going full blast. The attendance mounts to 15,000, to cheer Dave Malcher, Foster, Harney and the rest of the Giant clan, on to another world championship. Giants' park was formerly the home of the Giants, its largest-today than either the White Sox or Cubs present parks, and a home run over the left or centerfield fence is an Oscar Charles, or Beckwitt. Can Give Sox Lessons The Giants can give the Baltimore Black Sox lessons in keeping grounds clean, ed, the grass in the outfield looking like a lawn and not a cow pasture. Stands are in need of paint. Offices can be made needed repairs and painting because they can onl secure a year to eat lease and may be ousted at a later date. Judge Hueston Judge W. C. Hueston, ear of the National League, witnessed the game Sunday, Mrs. Hueston was in a box office for the judge's heavy overcoat. Police and attendants scurried around but could not find it, for the very good reason that the judge had it on in another part of the "Rube" Foster "Rube" Foster, brother of the original Rube, is the mainstay pitcher for the Giants. Funs say they have "the best pitchers" and "jelly" Gardner in center, the greatest trio of baseball players in the country. While they were talking, Sunday, Gardner pitched a no-hitter along飞 and then tumbled on his head, coming up with the ball. Malarcher, they say can field with Marcel, third sacker of the Bacharachs, but in headwork tops the league. Dave's "mit" they say won the penant for the Giants and the world's championship from the Bacharachs after the original "Rube" Foster had propelled. By the way, the original "Rube" is still in the insane syrium, his mind unbalanced, permanently it came whose greatest argument he made. Lost His Team Not only did "Rube" lose his mind, but he lost his ball club at the same time. He lost both the park and the team that "Rube" gathered from the back lots and welded into a machine that would be used in local and the Eastern Negro Leagues. Eastern League The Eastern League hardly survived "Rube" a year and the National had one of the roughest years of its existence in 1927. They Play Ball Sunday's first game was played in two hours flat, and the second game was no different. No monkey business was tolerated by the umpis, but the opposing pitcher in "riding" the opposing pitcher from the coaching line. Split Bill Sunday The Giants, after losing to the Detroit team, 5-3, Saturday, split even with the Giants, caged team winning the first, 8-2, when they hit Shaw hard in the fifth, mixing four hits with three ground balls base-running to score six runs. In the second game which was a pitcher's battle between Miller of the Giants and the Detroit tiers, the Detroit club emerged victorious in seven innings, 1-0, although Miller yielded one hit. The Winnipeg frame. With one out, DeMoss "led the only Detroit hit, went to second on an out and scored when Bobby Williams' let an easy roller go right through."

Fannie Offut, and Alice Warner, all around athletes, and Ivera King and Lucy Burnell are sure bets with the racerist. Bill Gibson Speaks Upon inquiring from William Gibson, sport editor here, as to why the girls' big basketball games are given so little space in the paper, he says in most pointed manner, he reasons for the limited space. He says that girls do not go about their games in the business-like manner that boys do. They don't advertise, and as a result, their games are poorly attended, as no one knows, of them. Many of the games are below our, from lack of regular practice. They fail to stage any but preliminary games; and when they do play the courts on which they play are too small to accommodate a representative crowd. Some of these statements may be some of us, but Gibson seems to have sized us up pretty well. If you don't agree with him, send in your objections. Phil At Haverford NEW YORK. — With Phil Edwards in prime fettle the New York Yankees commit a heavy favorite to win the laurels in the Middle Atlantic States Intercollegiate track and field championships, to be held Friday and Saturday, in the Bronx. Edwards is expected to have little opposition in either the half or the quarter if he starts those events. If he sets the record to set a new record in the half mile.

After Cockburn Tennis Trophy PHILADELPHIA. — Seeking to vindicate its loss to the New Jersey Tennis Association last year, the Pennsylvania Tennis Association will this season make a strong bid to win the Cockburn Trophy, now held by New York. The Keystone organization will present a formidable team, with Dr. Smith as coach and Dr. time form. After several years layoff, Dr. Smith was able to come back and regain his standing among the premier tennis players of the Pennsylvania Tennis Association, ranking number four in the 1927 ratings. Dr. Gordon, also a ranking player, will again represent the Pennsylvania Tennis Association in quets with the Jerseys in Philadelphia for the right to challenge New York. Ernie Asle, all-round athlete at Duke High and runner-up for the National Junior Court Title should make the team this year. Ernie Will no doubt play in the men's singles and judging from his showdown with the Keystone organization. There are numerous doubles teams throughout the state from which the Pennsylvanians may pick, and with the leading women players of the country playing in the Keystone State will present a well-balanced team. The Cockburn Trophy matches will no doubt attract a large gallery to Philadelphia. TIGERS STOP GIANTS WASHINGTON, D.

JACK JOHNSON WAS LUCKY TO GET TOM- MY BURNS IN THE FING WITH HIM. THIS BOUT GAVE JACK THE TITLE FRED D. JOHNSON THE PASSING REVIEW By BILL GIBSON A DIRTY TRICK is the way George Rossiter characterizes the way Jim Keenan has done him in reference to his playing of "Fats" Jenkins, legal property of him, in the lawsuit against the man of Williams, "Fats" name, however, was given as Jenkins when the Lincoln played the Cubans a Sunday or so ago. That Jenkins is a valuable player goes to the point that Jenkins despite his preference for remaining in New York, should take his medicine like a man and come on down to the Monumental City. He ever looking over the outer gardens that the Westport city has to feel that it is best that Jenkins has not Both stunt coach with his last respect to his wonderful ability, djenkins, or for that matter, any other player who goes to any club bearing a grievance, is worse than no player at all. He would only serve to stir up dissension and could not give the best that was in him regardless of how hard he seemed to try. Washington, Holloway, and Dixon, in our estimation, form the best trio of outfitters in the Eastern League today. Each of these men is fast in the field, runs the bases well and, in horsehose with vigor, it is the best department that Ben Taylor has. As we have pointed out before, the Sox infield is a flashy one, its hitting however, not being up to what it should be, despite the clouds of the nightly X-Bees. And Jackson and Jackson are getting way on, and they are in a place that is "scarcery." Brown will round into a hitting stride ere many moons pass. Afield, as well on paper, the Black Sox appear to be the best bet in Eastern diamond circles this year and should csp the gonfalen they missed last year. The first-place loss to the team, the Red Sox, was a 10-yard-to-10-yard arch, 1927 champions. Lockhart, Jones, and Wagner are still numbered among the missing and piled upon these worries "Ike" has had any number on the sick list, Lundy, Grier and Henderson, being the principal leader of the team. The first-place loss to the team, the Red Sox, to the infeld in the form of a star player who is to report from California. We don't know just who the gentleman can be, so we await the announcement of his name. The first-place loss to the team, the Red Sox, was a good jacking up for they certainly moved down the Lincoln Giants, Sunday before last. While Dihigo left him, via the jump route, Alec still has Oms, who pounds the apple hard and Alfonso and Baro are no slouches. The wily Cuban, who is a go-to, is still in the lead, and he is still in the lead. Arrango as a strengthening cog in his machine and that a young student by the name of Mellito, now in school in Cuba, would report soon. The Philly Tigers are rounding into shape and may give somebody trouble to get to the home of the team, but they are still in the mystery team have got to do some real building before they will be considered "any trouble." Hilldale is booked to come to Baltimore next Sunday and the Darby Cian should prove a good drawing card. The Red Sox are in a way to get to the home of the team, but they are great to go back there now and splash about in its alluring cooniness, sans bathing suit "n' everything? Cheer up, boys, it won't be long before the park pools will be inviting you to come in and enjoy a place to play. Our Thermometer, so you can see the game, is as good as you make. The most-stop flight, but the pool will be there to help you solve the heat problem. A jitney, five pennies, has been set as the price to all who make use of the day at Brown's Grove. On August 10 you have a chance to use it and in run up to Brown's Grove, Highland Beach, or some less pretentious watering place, join with the funny tribe and enjoy the thrill of being stung by a jellyfish. Summer is not summer without swimming, at least that's the way we live. Less than two hours to swim this summer, if you already haven't done so, but if you don't go in the pool, seek one of nature's own resorts, look out for the sharks. THERE SEEMS TO BE an increasing wave of opinion in favor of collegiate and scholastic track and field competition as the goal. We will be watching the outstanding track meets of the country scheduled this month. Starting with the Tuskegee Relays on May 5 the meets have been stung out for the succeeding Saturdays, the Hampton University Relays on May 10 and Howard University open meet on May 30. The C. I. A. tennis tournament will also be held on the 19th at Petersburg. It is fortunate this year that the schools promoting these events have widened their audience, and agreed some agreement on the matter of dates so that no two big meets would be held on the same days. Howard and Hampton conflicted last year in this respect and the Lincoln team, faced with the dilemma of having to use the day at Brown's Grove, Highland Beach, or some less pretentious watering place, join with the funny tribe and enjoy the thrill of being stung by a jellyfish. G This year there will be no chance of embarrassment or for causing disagreeable feelings to spring up because some school fees slighted students whose experience in the past has been limited to possibly one meet a year now have the opportunity of more and keener competition and in the case of far-sighted coaches and schools that have the financial resources to afford their powers. Of course there larks the danger of overdoing the thing by entering star performers in more events than they really are to fit enter, with the result of burning out material that otherwise might soar. One thing is distinctly noticeable in the various meets that have been held, not only this year, but in many years previous. Race athletes have fallen far behind in such events as the high jump, pole vault and relay cleared (the bar at 5 for $8½ inches and the pole vault was won by a leap of only nine and one-half feet. These marks are by no means indicative of any Olympic performance. The athletes compete in favor of those at any meet in the country, Charlie Major, so far, seems to be the only possible candidate for the race in the Olympic jump tryouts and with Butler, of Geneva, Hubbard, and possibly Ken Wibecan are the best we have. Phil Edwards being lost to Uncle Sam for keeps. GENTLEMAN JACK MEYV, as has been the case with most of his Aframerican predecessors, has had to wait for a chance to put his name on the list. He agreed to meet him, the bout to be bouted at Coney Island, May 25. Quite some time ago Courtney showed the yellow feather in running out of a bout with Gentleman Jack—a bout that was no doubt, and he was not. He was not. George is said to have explained later that his reason in getting out from under* was due to the fact that the estimable Takesin Rickard was fumbling the ball in relation to the percentages. But he never got this info entirely across to the rabble and accordingly lost a number of his fists. And by the way, Courtney, at that time was considering himself as a challenger to the tiara of Micky, the Walker, middleweight boss. That the coming fight should be a wow might be inferred from the esteemed Hype igoe, who informs his readers, "You couldn't buy MY WORLD." And while we think of it, Humbert Fugazy and Rickard are about to come to legal blows concerning the Signors awors intent to sign Loughran against Pete Latoz and Leo Lomski, the bouts to come off are not as good as they appear. And with Loughran that calls for the fighter not to sign with any other promoter up to November first of this year, Fugazy asserts that the Boxing.Commish will not hold such an agreement valid and is accordingly going to present his contracts, signed to Loughran, Latoz and Three Elis, to the fictional fighter for a decision. So well see who's who. Lincolns Take Another ELICITCITY CITY.

TITLE TO SMITH Victors Convert Hits Into Runs And Triumph, 3-2 In Big Rally YOKELY ON MOUND Mates Get Hits Hits But Perish On Sacks SALISBURY, N. C. — Playing one of the greatest and most sensational games of baseball ever, in the league,legate circles, in this section, the Smith Bulls nosed out their ancient rival. Livingstone, in the deciding, contested State Championship honors, by the close score of 3-2, Saturday. Lymon Yokley, famous pitching ace of the Baltimore Black Sox, made a special trip from Baltimore to do some work with a recent shut-out victory over the Bacharach Giants to his credit he faced the Bulls smilingly and confident. For seven innings he sent out three hits and their dug-out in two-three order. But in the seventh Coach Seales, of Smith, started striking his rabbit-foot, and the fireworks began and the onlookers on the ground, the Bulls, had held out six hits and two runs when his team came in for their half of the seventh. But Tucker, the first man to face Yokley in the seventh rapped a first pitch, McKeithan hit a fast grounder through Yokley and was safe before Berry at second could complete the play. Tucker going to home, to first and was safe on a fielder's choice, Tucker scoring on the play and McKeithan landing safely at third. Walker was safe on a fielder's choice, McKeithan being thrown out at plate by Berry, Hayes safe at plate. Walker stole second on the first pitch to Pitchford. Pitchford singled out Yokley retired McDowell and Williams via the strikeout route, ending the inning. The threatened in the ninth when Crockett started the inning with a single.

"Jealousy." I snaps back "is not nothing but it." But it is of a neglected brain. It comes as the result of inferiority complex and only grows in minds which is more or less undernourished in thinkfood. Now a man of my intelligence could not be got paleo because I appreciate my own value and feels that the person up whom I invades my affections does the same. "You don't seem to have a very excited opinion of yourself," answers the storm and strife sarcastically. "If I had to pass through the deal again I didn't bother with what was the last male species earth." that side of the fence out of my system yet and they been gone in month." Of course, it ain't till I return home that evening after collaring the 'slab all day that the spouse greets me with the knowledge that the blimbo who is to be our neighbor is named Joseph P. Goosenberry. An Old Joe Goosenberry from Spokane or boyhood friend asks with excitement in my articulation. "I'll go right over and extend that old rascal key to the section before I eats my supper." "Why, I didn't know you was acquainted with Joe," falters the wife. "Acquainted?" Joe and I laid across the same mannies' knee and had our breeches sewed up together but what do you know about him? "Oh nothing," says she shylike. "Oh no, I don't love me same near getting married once I was born in my marriage." Joe is a nice boy though and "I there is no doubts about that," I reply, "because you would probably be trampled to death in the rush." This snappy comeback, which I remember from a show she she her up for a moment, shows she can't think to reply with and she leaves the table in a huff and sadies over to the window biting her lips to avoid further verbal hostilities until I gets out of the house. "Why dear," she yells excitedly, forgetting her feelings in her anxiety to try to convince her that "do you know somebody is moving that vacant house next door?" "Pretty cheap pataters," I remarks after one look at the brand of furniture which is being carted into that dump, which in no way compares with the aristocratic tastes which beautifies our own domicile. "I wonder who in the world they can be ones on the frum excitedly, who else they are nice congenial neighbors." "For my parts", I answers grabbing my headgear from the hallrack. "I is just about as enthused over taking up with every Tom, Dick and Harry, that tears down that for wend support does as I is for staging a stunting match with an octopus.

Of course, it ain't tint I returns home that evening after collaring the siab all day that the spouse meets with the knowledge that the blimbo in my neighbor is named Joseph P. Goosenberry "Not Old Joe Goosenberry from Spokane, my old boyhood friend?" I asked with excitement in my articulation. "T'll go right over and extend that old rascal the key to the secton before I eats my supper." Who knew I knew you was acquainted with Joe. Failure the "Acquainted?" I answers "Why, Joe and I laid across the same mamnies' knee and had our breeches sewed up together but what do you know about him?" Nothing, she shylike, "only Joe and the same new marriage once — long before I met you. Joe is a nice boy though and I liked him very much." "Why, that many old rascal never told me anything about being engaged up with anybody, but I don't sense that skuing son of a cucklebur stee we was 'mustered out of the army.' With the exceptions of taking on about a hundred or more pounds and getting bald on the top of his head, Joe hasn't changed a bit since him skuing, but he was still the same, but the surprise comes when I learn that he went back to the old brier patch where he and I was brung up and weds up with Annie Cahoon, who used to be the weakness of all the boys in my younger daws and I was kindly sweep on her myself. I was in the backseat and doing other things which womenfolk does when their husbands is hard at work, the wives become as thick as moths in an old fur coat during the days that pass; and, of course, me and Joe were in the backseat and doing the good, old days before we is caught in the matrimonial grabbag. Annie, since I last seed her, has developed into a corking good eyeful, being always kinda easy on the antics, and I mentions as much to Joe one night during the cites and telium of show none of the boys had home had a look in with her while dren fer Call Vernon 6016 The Afro-American—Baltimore, Md.—South's Biggest and Best Weekly. back the same compliment on my I was on the carpet. Joe hands me old lady, which, if I do say it myself, is the real spiff in class A, femininity, and he wonders how she managed to take up with a galoot like me after the way she used to make up to him. Of course, I tells him that she has got a lot more sense now than she had when he knew her and naturally appreciates bigger and better things. Joe and me laugh these cracks off because there ain't nothing that can make us get mad with each other. "That was a nice drape Joe's frau was wearing last night," I remarks to the handcuffs while devouring a flock of hog and henfruit the next morning. "Naturally," she replies, "you is bound to raise a lot of hurrah and hallelujah over what some other woman is wearing and never pay any attention what the soever to what your own wife has on." "Tut, tut", I consoles, "They ain't no use you getting hefty over me passing admiring cracks on Annie, why I thought you two dames was like a couple of sisters?" "To observe the way you makes over her every time you two gets together one would think we was spit-tittle twins and you was near-sighted and couldn't tell the difference." I never knew where saint the slightest excuse was, raising over a perfectly harmless situation. Why Joe and me was the best of friends back on the goosegreens and Annie was just an old childhood sweetheart of mine. "That's just what I knows and from the compliments you two is always asking you to think you was in your second childhood. Joe tells me that that potwasher of his is always lambasting him and handing you a lot of verbal applause, asking him why he don't do this or that like you does. He, being a numbskull, thinks it is. I know that is. I know that is biting him in the back." Before I could think up a smart answer to this flapdoodie, she starts booing and sniffing, throwing her head on the inside of her elbows, about how miserable she is and how she's berryed had never moved into the joint next door and wrecked her life. "Look here," I snaps severely, "you has the wrong sort of bee in your bonnet, sister. You know blame well that a man of my temperament is hard to please on the female marriages, but you have Cahoney doesn't got anything that I would write home about is evidenced in the fact that Joe Goosenberry married her and you know that his preference in anything ain't up to the high standard. They ain't nothing in the world that a cloakhoper like Joe Goosenberry would be satisfied with could turn my color either "one way or the other." "Is that so?" snaps the wife. "That shows just what you think of me you conceited son of a entick. Why, Joe Goosenberry would have gladly led me to the altar and been satisfied any day in his life and if I hadn't been fool enough to allow an oily tongued blowhard like you to film-flam me into a matrimonial mare's nest. I would have been Mrs. Joseph Goosenberry today, instead of the moprag of an unappreciative nummy nammv like you turned out to be. I suppose then you would be over making love to me as you has a peculiar weakness for carrying on a puppy canoodle with Joe Goosenberry's wives." "Of course. by the time she finishes this repartee I is well on my way to the carline, but my ears is burning for the rest of the day. Being, as I am, a man of unusually broad vision I could not understand this demonstration of human narrowness, although looking myself over I could readily understand why any wife who is fortunate enough to have me as a mealticket would naturally raise considerable objections to any other female enjoying my delightful society.

Disordered stomach, gritting the teeth, picking the nostrils are signs of worms. Frey's Vermifuge Exbels Worms Don't Make a Toy Out of Baby —Babies Have Nerves By RUTH BRITTAIN Much of the nervousness in older children can be traced to the overstimulation during infancy, caused regarding baby as a sort of an maternal or parent's instrument of parents, relatives and friends. Baby may be played with, but not for more than a quarter of an hour to an hour daily. Beyond that, being handled, tickled, caused to laugh or cry, is another instrument in vomiting, and involuntarily causes irritability, crying or sleepiness. Fretfulness, crying and sleeplessness from this cause can easily be avoided by treating baby with more consideration, but when you just can't see what is making baby restless, you can drop of pure, harmless castoria. It's amazing to see how quickly it calms baby's nerves and soothes him to sleep; yet it contains no drugs or opiates. It is purely vegetable—the recipe is on the wrapper. Leading children to diarrhea, constipation, gas on stomach and bowels, feverishness, loss of sleep and all other "upsets" of babyhood. Over 25 million bottles used a year shows its overwhelming popularity. With each bottle of Castoria, you get hooked on Motherhood, with weight in gold. Look for Chas. H.Fletcher's signature on the package so you'll get genuine Castoria. There are many imitations. man as big in spirit as I is could not be guilty, yet the words of my wife about her could have been Mrs Joe Goosenberry, as though that was not so important to me in my ears. The more I thought of it the more it *t* under my collar and by nightfall I had convinced myself that Joe Goosenberry is the most contemptible individual in my immediate acquaintance. I ask him, how I must have felt when I canzed in the house and the wife meets me, beaming with a smile and carrying an armful of cut flowers. "Just look!" she says happylike, "at the wonderful bouquet Joe sent me. Just think, all these years have passed, and has not forgotten that today is in my heart. I am not sweet of him, the dear boy," she completes taking a long sniff. "Don't throw them poses away." I says taking off my coat, "just save to go with the ashes to ashes and then put them in a dish of finishes with that meal-youth back-biter, you'll have plenty of use for them blossoms. I'll teach that squash brains to give my wife presents during my absence." I pleading is of no avail as I rolls the sleeves and starts out the front door. "Go to your room." I ordered from the porch, because the catastrophe which is going to be enacted here when I get my hands on that bimbo in my room, no woman with a weak heart to see. I mount the steps that leads to Joe's house, mad enough to melt iron ore in my derby, and just as I am hears Joe's voice rage, screen door hears Joe's voice rage, screen door lady. I don't see them, but Joe sounds mad enough to take a piece of meat from a hungry lion in a fist fight. "If I try to stop me!" I hear iron roar. "If I get my hands on the man-faced reptile in the alfaal. I'll break his bones so fast it will sound like a Chinese preparing macaroni. What right, has that rattlebrained man got? If it is pretty verses and bon bons even if it is your birthday? Let me at him!" I suddenly recalled that sending Annie a box of chocolates with a verse in keeping with my high poetic appreciation the previous night, so knows I Joe intends that she should in the shade his fertilizer. I changes my mind about going in and slips down to the corner drug store and calls him up. "Joe," I says, "you're a life-saver sending the wife them flowers for her birthday. I had plum forgot it and I am in a pretty kettle of fish." Joe old man, was just getting ready for you, you thank you for sending the wife that box of candy, I forgot about it. Now we can say that you and me planned to surprise each other's wives. That's a good scout, bill. Well, over the mountain, Old boy. and through those woods."

In Darker Baltimore By RALPH MATTHEWS Fully realizing that left to his own devices, the human animal is a lazy creature, and will resort to any measures to obtain the wherewithal to get his food and shelter with the smallest possible exertion. I am not in the least surprised at the letter sent out by certain local baptist ministers begging for funds last week. Baptists, who are known as fundamentalists, have by this bogus move, which came to the eyes of the darker brethren by accident, won for themselves the title of "Fumblementals". Other Baptists naturally raised a bowl of protest against the signers of the letter, which they claim reflects on the race, but knowing the average swallowtalled immersionists as I do, I am skeptical enough to say that the brethren are not so much concerned over the reflection cast on the race as they are about the fact that the writers kept their good scheme to themselves. The best thing the Negro does is resent the slightest intimation that anybody on earth is superior to him. He talks loud and long trying to prove that all men are created equal, but no war was ever won with argument. While we most heartedly resemble the statement that Negroes are inferior to any other race, yet we Baltimoreans are doing very little in a practical way to disprove the statement. True, we have a few lawyers who do not mind being disciplined mentally with any other race, out should the white folks suddenly decide to fire all their cooks, maids, butlers and janitors every one of our intelligence would starve to death. True, we have many ministers who can preach brilliant sermons and some of the finest churches ever built for them to deliver them in, but they are not the ones who sell the staples on the corner suddenly decide not to sell to customers of dark complexions the masses would follow the same fate of the intelligence. Our lodge and dance halls, too, would not suffer by comparison, but there isn't enough regalia in the whole lot to keep their wearers warm, and the clothing stores operate by our farther brethren be closed against, us. If the clergymen who wrote that letter made any mistake at all, it was merely grammatical. Instead of saying "The whites should rule" they should have said "The whites do rule". Religious Education Rather than condemn the ministers who sent that letter, I am more inclined to admire them for their spunk and courage. Few people now know what to do. They are not "Just as good as you are" even when they are begging you for money. If, however, we must condemn them, and no well behaved columnist could write a column without them, some people they are denim them planning to start a denominational school if that is what they really intended to do with the money. There is anything that complete illusion those unfortunate enough to come under its wing, it is religious education. work in schools. While as much schools grow in size and prominence they find it decidedly to their financial advantage to broaden their program and say that this school is for all regardless of creed or belief, yet that religious aspect prevails. Religious education, which we like to call 'preparation for world service', places the student at a decided disadvantage, because which the stuff that is pummed into him is idealistic instead of practical. He is constantly being told in lectures, alive with biblical and sacrificial allusion, that he is not being trained for his own sake, but for the great service that he can give to the world. As a consequence the student goes forth believing that the world is some Uttonia just waiting for him to lug it off on his shoulders when, as a matter of fact, the world is so vast that that doesn't give a darn whether he gets enough to eat or not let alone turn things upside down. Through the veil of optimism that he hives over his eyes he cannot see that all about him there is greed, avarice, grafting. He drifts on believing that it is divine to denise itself the good things of the world with the hone of getting in heaven. After a while you see that he is more than a hum counter but an automat where you pay for what you get and serve yourself. "THE AFRO CARRIES MORE NEWS THAN ANY OTHER WEEKLY," -Eugene Gordon, 1927.

For whom does a man wear deep mourning? Only a close relative. BEAUTY HINTS In selecting your Easter costume, pause long enough to make sure that the color you are about to use is becoming. Then if you wish to use a contrasting color get one that harmonizes with it. Let your accessories, shoes, and hair be shaded so that they can be worn with this dress or with one color of your trimmings—thus economizing. It is wiser to keep to one or two shades when one’s finances are limited—otherwise there is likely to be stylized of colors and you lose the style of your look. Study yourself and keep to the one or two shades that are most becoming and are indeed “Your Colors.” A&P ESTABLISHED 1859 Iona LIMA BEANS can 10c & P Baby LIMA BEANS can 25c POST DASTIES pkgs. 23c Sunnyfield CORN LAKES pkgs. 20c Bunsweet RUNES 25c A & P ATSUP oz. 25c CHILLI SAUCE t. 25c Assorted Flavors JELLO 3 pkgs Libby's Sliced Pineapple No. 2½ can 22c Rinso 3 small pkgs.

DABNEY SAVANNAH, GA.—The colored organized workers and the white organized workers of Savannah are to form a central body thru whom both groups can cooperate for their common welfare in the future according to plans of George L. Googe, the newly elected President of the Trades and Labor Assembly of Savannah. For a number of years the organized colored and white workers of Savannah have been more or less completely separated from each other. Organized white labor feels that the distinct and separate development of both groups is better for all concerned so long as there is some central body which can function as a clearing house for all of the common problems of both races. Until now this sepa.te development has been entirely too complete, and the plan for a central bdoy or committee to act for both groups of workers is based on Mr. Googe's be lief that "it is imperative that colored workers be organized as well as white workers to be done," says Mr. Googe, "unscrupulous bosses will not hesitate to use one group of workers against the other group." Googe has just returned from the convention of the Georgia State Federation of Labor where a resolution was introduced urging that all groups of organized workers encourage the use of colored workers. Mr. Googe is one of the youngest and most liberal white leaders of the entire South, and it is believed that race discrimination organized white and colored labor will improve under his leadership.

May-12 GOOD MORNING JUDGE A Year Makes Little Difference in Law Just as absence can make the heart grow fonder, it can make the heart grow bitter as well, was proven when Sedrick Sattchell was arranged for a larceny charge. Wednesday: "Judge. Your Honor," said Benjamin Gray, 620 Conway street, "this one year ago at the house where I live now and he wanted to go home to Charlotte. N. C. and asked me to buy him from him in order to get money from him against him, but he didn't appreciate it." "Sorry," said the Judge, "but there is no law against ingratiance." He stole the suit and gave him the money he stole the suit back again and took another one of mine besides. He has been gone year and the other was taken to town and I had him locked up. "Satchell," said the Judge. "As long as you stayed in North Carolina you were free, but now you are here you must go to jail; I hold you for court." They Missed Him Going But Got Him Coming "How much will you give me on this?" asked Charles Lewis of a pawny Ballmoron and Pine street, cornering on the counter. Before he could get an estimate a patrician walked in the door. "What is your caricature?" asked the officer. "Yes." Lewis replied nervously. "Well, play me a tune and prove it," said the officer. When Lewis made a call, he was arrested on suspicion and later he admitted that he had stolen the instrument from a musician in the Barnum and Baily Circus and with larceny, the magistrate was told because they could not find the owner to prefer a charge against him. "Where do you live?" asked the judge. "I am a native of Norfolk, but I haven't any home now." "Good," said the judge, "we can't hold you for larceny, but we can charge you with vengeance, tug-bond and warrant. Three months in the House of Correction."
