Before the House passed the Fenn reapportionment bill last Friday, an amendment offered by Representative George H. Tinkham, Republican, of Massachusetts, having for its object the reduction of southern representation because of disfranchisement, was ruled out of order by Representative Carl R. Chindblom, Republican, of Illinois, who was presiding. Mr. Chindblom held that the amendment was not germane and sustained the point of order raised by Representative E. Hart-Fenn, Republican, of Connecticut, the author of 14th Amendment The Tinkham amendment had for its purpose the enforcement of the provision of the fourteenth amendment of the Constitution authorizing where there is disfranchisement. In supporting his amendment Mr. Tinkham pointed out that the Constitution provides that the Constitution shall be reduced in each State in proportion to the number of persons who are disfranchised. "How is it possible to comply with the Constitution unless the amendment is not done?" he declared, "not only is the House of Representatives not constitutionally organized but representation among the States." Mississippi Objects Representative John E. Rankin, Democrat, of Mississippi, supported the point of order that the amendment requires that "the Congress of the United States has no power to disturb Southern representation because of the fact that Negroes do not have the right of Senator William E. Borah, Republican, of Idaho, that the constitutions and statutes of the southern States do not violate either the fourteenth and sixth amendments of the Constitution. Chindblom Rules In his ruline Mr. Chindbloom followed a precedent established in 1921 when a similar amendment to a re-legislation of *k.* "was offered by Mr. Tinkham.

"If it is fair and honest for George (Dem.

This is the view of Benjamin Davis, mittteeman of Georgia, printed in his newspaper, the Atlanta Indiana, this week. Mr. Davis says if it is crime for a state governor to pay $400 for his expenses year, it is equally as criminal for a national organization to collect $5,000,000. Mr. Davis says if colored people weren't getting the money you wouldn't hear anything about it in Georgia. New Hi School For St. Louis ST.

Mrs. Lee, a Baltimore and former Mrs. Lillian Reid Thompson, is a member of a prominent Baltimore family and the divorced wife of Isaiah Thompson. Baltimore orchestra Taylor was killed while counting out the day's receipts in the Metropolitan Theatre by an unarmed Mrs. Lee, at the point of a pistol, to ask TayLaye to unlock the door of his office. As the manager opened the door, the bandit stepped into the office, Taylor heard him tell him he had not come in. At the same time Lee struck the bandit behind the ear. As Lee struck, he said he heard a friend and Taylor fell. The bandit fleed. His weapon: a 32-calibre, police positive blue steel revolver was found planted beneath a seat about 75 feet from the door of the office. Taylor was shot through the neck and the lower part of the head, and died on the ground with the witnesses of the crime were Mrs. Lee, the theatre organist, and her husband, Richard Lee, a student of locomotive engineering, who 90 years ago testified that they had never been married to each other. The coroner questioned Lee very much his debts and his source of income.

Writing his reason for vetting the law, the governor said: "South Carolina has a condition that is peculiarly her own, while it is not needed to discuss this phase of the question, it should be evident to every one that this condition of itself makes a state-wide compulsory law both imprecial and injurious. The last report of school attendance in South Carolina shows 228,004 colored children in school and an enrollment of 248,272 children. There are more colored schools now than white in the state, 2,379 colored, and 1,356 white schools, although the great preponderance of colored schools are in the one teacher class.

Aaron Vanlandingham, 311 N. Carey street, a Baptist revivalist, was committed to court after a hearing in the Southwestern Police Station Thursday. The girl testified, according to police, that the minister has been intimate with the police, September of last year. His arrest was brought about when the girl's mother, after much resistance on the part of the girl, wring from her a confession. According to Mrs. Ferrell, she and her daughter became acquainted with the Rev. Vandlindingham on attending a tent meeting at Winchester and Mount streets. From that time on, she said, he has been a frequent caller at her home, at 1330 W. Lexington street. Led from School The mother further said that soon after the girl met the minister she refused to go to school and became generally unruly. On one occasion, she said, when matters seemed to force her hand, she made the girl return a position which the minister had given her. Too Ignorant According to police, the minister is said to have declared that he would not marry the girl because she is ignorant and beneath his Under the law, if proved guilty, he will be forced to support the child.

A Day STATE TEACHERS PAY LESS THAN DOLLAR A DAY Salaries In Rural Schools Is $65 Monthly For Eight Months INTERRACIAL BODY URGES EQUAL PAY Legislature Petitioned To Make Same Salary Scale For Both Races By T. J. CALLOWAY Citizens of Maryland who are working to remove from the statute books the discrimination between white and colored teachers salaries do not need to argue the efficiency of colored teachers. They have the testimony of no less an authority than Dr. Albert S. Gesson, who attended the Public Education, that he had witnessed some cases of teaching in the colored schools quite as good as any teaching he had observed in the white schools, and that in prescribing standards of efficiency for employment the same are demanded in the white and colored systems. But the question to be answered is, how much more merit of the average colored boy and girl represent the same in training and culture as do the same grade certificates of the white boy and girl? Probably not. Less Culture The colored teacher must work with children who come from an environment less culture than do the white children. The colored teacher must work with children whose parents are comparatively poorer resulting in less regular attendance. The colored teacher must do her job in school houses with less equipment.

Not Dollar a Day For less than an average of $1.40 a month, the most important function of the State. We are not surprised to find that this is the first year for two of Miss Wise, and the second year for Miss Bell.

He chewed the bark of a tree called cascara. Today, we have the candy Cascaret. Cascarizing the bowels never forms a laxative habit. If already formed, an occasional Cascaret will usually break the habit. For cascara strengthens the muscular walls of the bowels, and their need of any aid at all grows constantly less. What other catheter has this characteristic? The writer knows of none. An evacuation brought gently about by cascara will, nine times in ten, be followed by full functioning of the bowels on the move, and for days after. For there is no RE-ACTION as with sickening salts, or any of the manmade purgatives that go through one's system like a bullet.

LEADERS WOULD ACCEPT NOFED'RAL PLUM Scott, Moton, And Church, Would, However, Recommend Others For Jobs 3 SEPARATE GROUPS MAY MAKE PEACE Hoover Not Likely To Listen To Divergent Irreconcilables WASHINGTON, D. C. The main objective of the political forces that figured in the election of President-elect Herbert Hoover will be the reestablishment of the Negro in his former standing in the republican party before the administration of President William Howard Taft. These forces will close efforts of the Ku Klux Klan and the "lily-white" element of the Republican party to have the Negro eliminated from party committees to office as a reward for party service and party loyalty. None Desires Office. None of the leaders of the three groups that had to do with directing the campaign among colored voters is candidate for office. Robert R. Church, of Memphis, no face for the election for himself. Emmet J. Scott is contented to remain as secretary-treasurer of Howard University, although his name is frequently mentioned in connections with the Haiti. Dr. Robert R. Moton simply wishes to wield an influence in all political matters in which the Negro is concerned comparable to that wield in the state Booker T. Washington in the state Booker T. Washington administrations. The difficulty in the way of the accomplishment of these purposes is the difference among these leaders: Dr. Scott and Mr. Church are antagonistic with the executive officers of the colored voters division of the Republican national committee in the campaign. The group were opposed to Dr. Scott, but are willing to adjust their differences. Dr. Scott is agreeable to effecting a reconciliation with the Tennessee, who knows whether the Tennessee is reconciliable. If these opposing leaders can settle their differences, there is some hope of obtaining some results from Mr. Hoover. The Work Separately The groups represented by these men may work separately from time to time in behalf of the group, but they have been done in the past by opposing groups. Walter L. Cohen, controller of customers at New Orleans La., the backing group, is the group if decide to make a fight for retention of his post. After Boehner The Republican state organization of Louisiana has recommended > Secretary of the Treasury Andrew W. Mellon the appointee to the position Mr. Cohen, Mr. Suarez, a Democrat who supported Mr. Hoover. Mr. Cohen's term expired last April. He had been delegating his political concession to City, but he alone of his delegation was seated. He was opposed to the nomination of Mr. Hoover.

A. H Whitfield told the M. E. Ministers' Meeting, Wednesday. The statement followed allusion to the recent articles in the AFRO-AMERICAN by Dr. Kelly Miller and others on analgation and provoked a discussion by the present. "The members of the race had the wrong attitude," declared the Rev. C. E. Queen. "There is a race inferiority complex which we will have to handle on himself, not as a colored man, but as a gentleman." Dr. B. T. Perkins urged the group to go back to the farm and raise potatoes and the group a product as well. In giving a definition for "equality," Dr. Ernest Lyon stated that no two races could consider themselves on a basis of equality unless they were willing to sit down and eat at the same table.

In many instances the writer has been helpful in defeating the very roots of malice. The writer is not a fraternal man. Football, Election The big blow-up now is just this: the election of the football manager for the team, the man and an Alpha man were the candidates. The manager is elected by the Board of Athletic Control. Because of the fact that he had worked hard during the year and, therefore, earned th- position, but because he man and he thus came in close contact with members of the Board of Athletic Control, and could thus easily mislead some of the members of the team as to the merits of the candidates. The fact is the Alpha man was teacher for the team no matter what season he was in, while the Omega man was Assistant Manager all season. Full Strings The Manager will stretch the skin in such a way, through his connection with the Board as to practically cocksure the position he wants to hold. That some of the members of the Board place such explicit confidence in one man, the manager, one who is not deserving of such confidence, one who does not want to see an Omega man succeed him. There are just members on the Board, who believe in right, and will fight for it but there are also must men on the Board.

The neighbor made as her parting shot a remark which he would not that he had no claims to a father. BROOY STARTS TO BROOY Miss Wright had always told her son that his father was dead, but the youth brooded over the neighbor's remark. A change in clothing was so affected that he was placed in an asylum for a while. MOTHER BRINGS HIM HOME. Against the advice of friends, the fond mother who loved her son returned to the asylum and returned him to school. The youth's condition, apparently better, was in reality worse. His brooding and melancholy ended last November when he felt he was doing nothing and himself by killing her. HE THOUGHT IT BEST Questioned by Thomas L. Higgins, his attorney, as to why he did the deed, Wright's reply was to put his mother on charge and remove signs on her life. Asked by Attorney Higgins if he were sorry his answer was, no. he was not sorry, but that he was sorry at all he was done. WAS MODEL YOUTH Witnesses produced by Counselor Higgins testified that Wright was a model youth in school and out. He was a model youth in a appearance and smart in his studies. He held young women in the highest respect, led a clean life, and had high ideals for womanhood. He committed an immoral act in his life. Due to the mystery of his birth, he had a horror of all sex indiscretions.

There is more of the religion of Jesus taught in the religion synagogues than in all the Christian churches it together." This is the view of Dr. John Haynes Holmes, pastor of the Community Church, in a recent sermon hour. "There is not the slightest shred of evidence that Jesus ever rose from the dead. Christians are all wrong because they don't understand the really great things Jesus did, such as wage war on Church and State. Christians are not taken, when they apothesize the carpenter who loved the title "Son of Man." "Jesus taught the Jewish religion, and his religion remains 'wish all Dr. Holmes has been celebrated as a radical and socialist for some time. In a book on Marriage and Divorce, he contended that marriage is a social form to be used as long as it is useful and to be abolished when it is wise. Essentially marriage is a sex matter, he said, but he approves it because of the instinct of sex affection. He approved of divorce whenever affection had waned. In economics he aligns himself definitely with the working class. He is against religion as theology and believes it should be developed social fellowship. He is also an advocate of world peace and a prohibitionist. [Picture of a man in a suit and bow tie]. The *Rev*. Aaron R.

Kennard had one of the most colorful careers of any citizen in Baltimore. He was the son of the late Rev. Benjamin Thomas Kennard and Mrs. Margaret Kennard and was born 74 years ago on December 14, 1873. At the age of 15 he was converted in Asbury M. E. Church, of which his father was the pastor. He attended the public school of Baltimore and was a member of Asbury M. E. Church until 1887. For a short time during his younger days he was engaged in furniture hauling and lived on Dallas street. Dr. Kennard's medical training was secured much in the same way as the old-time lawyer studied law. He studied in the offices of the late Dr. George Cook and Dr. M. In 1894 he opened Christ Institute Church, where he has since conducted a joint religious and medical clinic for the last time his remains, were hundreds of people who testified to wonderful faith and medical cures he performed. In his practice Dr. Kennard instituted a unique system of faith, Christian scientist and medical healer who performed what he called miraculous healing and in his laboratory he sold and administered drugs. In 1895 Dr. Kennard was licensed to practice in 1894. Older Baltimoreans will recall the controversy which raged the time he began Christ Institute. White Members It was estimated that at least one third of the members of Christ Institute were white. He presented the unusual church with colored and white members and colored pastor. At the funeral these members took their part in the uniform ceremonial of the choir and other organizations. Had White Wife Although a widower at the time of his death, Dr. Kennard has been married three times. His first two wives were colored and the last one, a widow. He is survived by a son, Henry Kennard, and one daughter, Mrs. Mabel Mason. In East Baltimore Dr. Kennard was known as a friend to the needy and the poor, and all races and it is said, had one of the most devout followings of any pastor in Baltimore. Rev. C. H.

How Weak Nervous Women Grow Stronger Feel Better, Look Younger and Have Steadier Nerves If you only knew—you rundown, anemic women—who are dragging yourself around on your "nerve"—what a wonderful increase in strength about to happen, you wouldn't hesitate a moment about going to your druggist and getting a big bottle of this splendid medicine. Mrs. K. C. Martin, ol 1907 Frederick Ave, Baltimore, MD, says: "I suffered trouble and had just about lost hope of getting well. But here I am today—a whole year since taking Tanlac—feeling stronger and younger than in years. Tanlac is as free from harmful drugs as the water you drink—only Nature's own medicinal tonic herbs. Druggists know this and for the past 10 years have recommended it to men and women who need a quick "pick up" that will put them on their feet and give them the confidence. So confident are the markers of Tanlac that if you are not helped by it, you get your money back on request. Tanlac DR. HERBERT SMITH TO PASTOR HOT SPRINGS Syracuse, N. Y. Pastor Succeeding Rev.

BRAZIL A LAND WHICH HAS NO "COLOR" LINES Blacks, Whites, Indians, Japanese Live Side By Side In Peace AVERAGE BRAZILIAN OF MIXED BLOOD Politics And Exclusive Circles Do Not Think Of Race NEW YORK. Brazil, South American republic has neither race distinction nor race problem in the U. S. sense declares Rudiger Bilden, white, writing in January 16th issue of the Nation. It is the only land of Europe origin and background where three fundamental divisions of mankind meet on terms of comparative equality, live in peace side by side, and inter-mingle to form a new human corporation suited to the tropical and endowed with d'instinctive gifts. To the three comes of late a fourth, the Japanese, albeit in numbers small thus far, but in resisting to become larger, the Called to Account. Some years ago universal and venerable indignation forced an American nursing school in Rio to record its refusal to accept a Negro girl as somewhere in Brazil members of colored races, not excluding pure Negroes and Indians, are socially admitted to exclusive circles or entrusted with high political office, and have the requisite qualifications. Among "400" Numerous distinguished statesmen, politicians, scholars, artists, writers, etc. of the Empire and the Republic, of the United States, the blood of the slave. It would be an extensive list which attempted to name present-day Brazilians of this type, some of them representing the five eminent emperors. Where Races Live. The Amazon Valley is overwhelmely populated by pure or mixed Indians of the Amazon River Valley. The Bahia, the home of the old sugar culture, is more than 60 per cent Negro; the Northeastern "Sertao" is inhabited by a thorough white-Indian mixture; the four southern white-Indian are at least three-fourths white. White Immigrants Early eighteenth century Brazil received some 3,500,000 immigrants, more than nine-tenth of them from Europe is bound to increase greatly in the near future. The Negroid element, on the other hand, is practically no addition from abroad since the final suppression of the slave trade in 1855. It and the Indian face gradual but inevitable extinction, and the absorption. In other words, the Brazilian is becoming steadily more and more white. The Brazilian race problem will be nearly solved when the North American slave crisis. Average Man Colored The average Brazilian will never be whitey white. Nor will the great sectional variation in degree of whitey according to length and to a more limited extent also according to latitude. Taken as a rule, the Brazilian will represent a new race, neither white Indian, nor Negro, although the first class will predominate. The vital importance of Brazil to the world at large lies in the fact that in that country, the state has been the most powerful problem of civilization. The gradual abolition of slavery, whereby ethnic amalgamation was placed, has not only the only, but the foremost modern instance of a fundamental social and economic transformation in Brazil, but also in the institution, or other form of violence. Today Brazil has progressed far on the road toward a harmonious blend of traditional and supposedly incompatible elements into a new tropical race.

She wore cast off clothes, received to pay for her role of cook, nurse and general maid and had never been to school a day in her life, she slept in a little room on the top floor of the old house.

She had never been paid any regular wage, Mrs. Allen said, "but money was given to her to own our own children. Some of it she puts in the bank."

Say what you please, it's against human inclination to start the day while the moon is shining. This daylight saving scheme ought to be equalized. If it's good gumption to put the clock an hour ahead June 21, it might also be good gumption an hour behind standard time December. Under such a winter schedule, we rise at seven (daylight), start work at nine and quit at six-thirty. This might not solve our problem of wanting to lie abed mornings.

Granted that the laws of many states as well as sentiment now largely oppose a principle that will increase harmony in the world. Yet consider that the principle is itself right while the basis of opposition is also correct. You are not the victim of prejudice. A short time ago popular belief supported by organized authority, upheld the notion that the earth was flat! Did this error defeat the truth?

Should an age which has witnessed so many reforms, such as compulsory education, the abolition of child labor, the prohibition of women in, prohibition forced into the organic law, the overthrown of efote despotism, the overthrow of the international good wili and the establishment of the shell of a lesson of national success is impossible to the order of the world. L. G. GREGORY Now the fact is that to the eye of discernment, it is established both scientifically and by Divine Revelation that "there are not many races. There is only one race. "Saint Thurut Keith, the great anthropologist, said: "The expression high and low does not apply to races." Dr. Gordon Munroe declares, "Not by darkness of skin, but by darkness of soul shall humanity be judged in the future." Dr. G. H. Esterbrook, in a recent number of the American Anthropologist, states that as a basis for his article he has interviewed men on one point, that no proof has yet been adduced to establish the superiority of one race over another. To one who examines this subject even supernatural evidence is proof that the boundaries between all the so-called races are illusory and imaginary and that all races are already to a large extent amalgamated. The scientific world is well informed of this. It knows that inequality is not the result of knowledge can the politicians and the masses remain ignorant? The youth of the world are ready gloriously responding to the divine principle of the oneness of humanity, and they are increasingly in revolt against ancient dogmas, superstitions and prejudices. In the greatest universities of the land, of all lands, are found those who are in open revolt against bigotry in all forms. Shall we train our colored youth to cooperate with them or faint because of difficulties and lethargy with them? We must learn with advances through the sacricles and steadfastness of heroic souls. Stand by the principle that is just, though the gates of hell should gape! You have increased the better part. May your power increase! Today Prometheus has again brought the fires of Heaven, to inspire and devote to unity harmony and justice amongst all mankind. This is Divine Guidance and "the knowledge of the Glory of God, which is to cover the earth as the waters cover the deep." Success and joy to those who LOUIS G.

He might light upon some very detrimental obstacles that have confronted so many of our people. A law compiling fraternal benevolent societies to compy in the laws, laws, would be a blessing to the average family. It seemed rather odd that Prof. Davis' picture should head your column, how can Cassius be so wrong? He should come under the Dominion Insurance Laws. Many of our race are today neglecting to carry a life insurance policy, feeling that their lodge membership assures funeral expenses. But how often when they are in danger to a grave, do they declare too weak to bear the burden. The U. S. survey by the Department of Interior published in your December 1, 1928 AMERICAN on Negro Educational Institutions, gives an account of the problems and to a great extent describes much Prol.

Kelly Miller Is In Error Says This Reader. To the Editor: It is obvious that race prejudice is in its origin a class distinction. The Negro is forced into the lowest stratum of society.

The Negro is forced into the lowest stratum of society. A symbol of this degradation is his color, and this will remain true as long as the Negro remains black and a menial.

No Negro could possibly be elected a judge in the Supreme Court. that prejudice town. A justice of the peace is not a judge here. Amalgamation is to my mind the solution to the race problem. The economic and social condition of our race causes the prejudice that occurs. As soon as amalgamation occurs, the economic and social condition of the race will be changed, the prejudice will be broken and the race problem. Josephine Baker Is Better Than Roland Hayes. To the Kid! During the appearance of Roland Hayes here in Baltimore, a Mrs. Duffey walked in to go to her seat on the first floor, but she was told that the first floor and second were for the lily-white; and the second was for the gallery, but was told that it was for whites and that no colored people could use it. Still things went along fine until a certain young miss who is prominently known here in Baltimore, was seen crying and a seat up in chairs with her color. I don't think she heard Mr. Hayes that night. But I was segregated and liked it. I sure would have felt offended if none of my color were segregated. Therefore I was proud to see the poor colored fools, the same as myself in the pit to just hear a boob who is selling his career, and when he is finished and out of whack a Negro and they have no room for him, they want a word for the colored race. But will they want him to? I hope they will not be fools enough to listen. As for Josephine Baker, they may say what they want about her, but she is still far better 1511 Harford-av.

"A probable, if not inevitable, assimilation of the colored population into the white is the original real cause of anxiety to those white people," he said. "Races, especially the further distant ones, like the white and the Negro, if the accumulated observations of anthropology count for anything, are not equipotential, or equally effective, or able to resist, and the results of their studies, the strengthening of the weaker as seen in many of our cultures, make the weakening of the stronger constituent.

The colored tenth is held apart, there is no danger." Dr. Fridklae stated: "the limited infiltration of white into the colored blood is a gain to the latter; the danger lies largely into the body of the larger white group. If this should happen, some change in the white body would be inevitable, and it would be a bold scientist who could argue that such an event might be beneficial." This, as anthropology sees, is the one cloud on the otherwise clear and sky of the American people of the future. It is the real alarm of threatened deterioration of the American stock through the infiltration of the so-called "inferior races" of white derivation. These threats have received no scientific foundation. The lack of background science only their true background is economic, supplemented by the universal trait of national or group eglomis." "This argument seems inconsistent to me. Is it a "scientific" reason for such a trend?" E. B. HENDERSON. "As long as the colored tent is held apart, there is no danger." Dr. Drillicka stated, "the limited influx of white into the colored tent will cause the water on the color stream flowing eventually wholly into the body of the larger white group.

PIES K.M.Says: American Phariseeism — Quaker Hoover To Command Army And Navy—He Talks Good Will In S. America, While U. S. Strangles Haiti—Oaths of Seven Presidents To Enforce Constitution Sacrilegious. On the morning of December 27 1928, I received a circular calling for a conference to be held in Washington. D. C., on the eighth of January to oppose the proposed Cruiser Bill sponsored by the present administration. The recently negotiated treaty to renounce war and the bill for ten new battleships were then rival claimants for congressional consideration. The conference of project was sponsored by the leading publicists, scholars and idealists in America. The idealist is always free to indulge his abstract theory unharmed by concrete responsibility. The student should be able to balance his accounts, because he fills in his figures from his fancy; rather than from actual transactions. Practical statesmanship utilizes the means, agreed upon and methods, to accomplish the ends held to be desirable, without much heed to sermonic niceties.

Mr. Hoover assured the Latin American Commonwealths that all nations were equal in the sight of international equity and justice, and yet we sponsor the election in Nicaragua and write the constitution. Seven patriotic presidents since the term of Benjamin Harrison have placed one hand on the Holy Eve and the other to Heaven in solemn oath to execute, uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution which has lifted the fine liner to give this catholic full effectiveness and force.

The publicist defies the part of the Constitution which does not suit his taste and fancy and encourages others to like defiance, without a word of objection and without a word of government and sworn duty it is to safeguard those instrument in its integrity It is interesting how the leaders of our Negro advocates of equal rights seemingly heedless of the fact that the nation is now in another mood of mind. But striking cold iron blows of sufficiency or frenzied impatience even the coldest metal to the melting point. Mr. Coolidge The moralists express amazement at President Coolidge for presenting to Congress a treaty to outlaw war in one hand and a request for ten new battleships in the other. To the pragmatical statesman, there is no moral inconsistency. We use England will renounce war if convinced that America is her superior in naval power. The accommodating Senate has agreed to pass the pacific treaty and will then proceed forthwith to provide for the requisite battlefield for the hoped for battleships. It cannot the braggards, armed to the teeth, say with assurance to his unarmed antagonist: "Thou shalt not kill?" Fine Spun Theories The pacifists may indeed meet and deliberate and indulge in fine spum theories, and may furnish delicious disquisitions for the pragmatist to laught at. No, they must not be afraid of hypocrites, but merely his statement. Is it not well that our doctrine is better than our deeds? Keep the heart pure for out of it the issues of our doctrine, and forth an impure stream, albeit the impurities are acquired soon after the stream leaves the fountain head. Our principles should always be practiced, a practice which should aim at perfection by constant approximation. Conduct pays homage to conscience by acknowledging its unattainability. Our Puritan, and his minister, in their calmer moods, are moved by the inner voice of right, but when geared up to the machinery of government task they will be motivated by a guidance rather than abstract guidance. Religion Insincere Mr. H. G. Wells has said somewhere that the religions of the world have become insincere and unconvincing. Christians no longer live by the doctrine down to the deed or the deed up to the doctrine. The statesman does not profess to live up to his constitution or declaration of primacy. Shall we vitiate the institution? Shall we infiltrate the agencies of statesmanship or hold the statesmanship up to the high aim of the Constitution? Are we as a nation to become a nation of hypocrites or will our present day hypocrisy give way to engagement and sincerity?

Linotype BIRTHDAYS Between Two Fires I see by the papers that the Flu is again on the go and from latest reports the malady has as all on it, but you can still take care to kid yourself into believing that you aren't got it, especially when you feel weak in the knees and joints tight, and the old back fairly creaking. Talking about the Flu, if you ain't never had it you can't appreciate what you missed. The first time you see it, you can remember many times as you want, I'm told) it felt like somebody had set down a thirty-story sky-scraper on my head; and the badudge hit me, and I was keeling serious now, and they tell me folks are drinking liu profusely trying to "gang" the Flu. I even heard that the government is trying to give me liquor prescriptions, but learned later that it was intended only for severe cases and mine was too mild even for diagnosis. So I see, Linotype, there is the choice of having the Flu or taking a chance with current homebrew. If you have the Flu you may be able to take it for it is all right, and that's just what is causing so much unnessiness. I never saw so much enthusiasm for the prescriptions nor so much gloomy as the M. D. turned 'em down cold. It's a plain case of 'being between you and the doctor, you don't get some good whisky, and you can't get it unless you are severely ill, and if you' drink what is being sold around the parts you are from the Flu. I tell you, it awful. It is that doctor who knows whether an influenza casualty was the result of the flu, and it took the M. D. to unclearly JOB. Modern Etiquette Q.

Arthur Bruno, judge Hunt to the bench are incensed at his insulting remark. Garvey Plans Daily KINGSTON, Jamaica. — A daily paper, "A Black Man," will appear, according to announcements from Marcus Garvey, a mch 2nd. Two liontype machines and a Gossip press are ordered from the United States. DAYBYDAY I wonder if I had a million coin money: Would I enjoy the needed rest which comes When hours are long: hardships press And the day is done— I wonder I wonder if I did not have to work and feel The strength of struggle—life's pinching stress Would I rejoice in triumph at the goal With such pride unhurt—at little races won The well done— I wonder I wonder if love came to me I wonder if there were no Heil I wonder if there were no Heil Would I wonder if a sun without some clouds Would I wonder if a sun without some clouds If death did not cut short our hopes Our alms—would we find Hope such soothing tone— I wonder Dr. Emmett Scott For Haitian Post The rumored mention of the murdered man, Dr. Emmett Scott, the post of Minister to Haiti is interesting and one of the natural expectations following the recent election, but there will be some who think that the president is throug- h to having an experienced diplom- at transferred to such a hide- hound and definitely formulated diplomacy as that now in vogue of public under our State Department. Dr. Scott is perhaps the most efficient diplomat the race has produced to the present time. Those who followed him wove at it during the years, and their projects with which he has been connected, have always seen a master hand putting over unusually big things. And most men accomplishing half as much would have assumed a role in the war, but have long ago halted their careers. There is so much for Dr. Scott to do here in America, that unless he intends to try his hand at quietly overhauling the police of the weaker colored nations through the weaker nations throughout the world, it would be a loss to have him enter the diplomatic service. Newspaper Style In The Pulpit A Chicago University dean of theology urges delegates attending the recent World Outdoor Conference to press the newspaper "style" in preaching to offset the waning interest in the sermon. New York George E. Curry one of the M. E. ministers attending that conference, urges his brother workers to take that advice. "The newspaper man" he says, urges the minister to sets good example for the minister who needs hearser appeal to "put across" the gospel message. Short, crisp, human interest serves the most old-time dissertation on "texts" and Bible stories too familiar to be "news" to modern congregations. In newspaper parliaments the minister serves the first headline and sometimes the "headlines" in the dynamics of public sentiment as represented by his flock, if he is to compete with modern developments which claim human attention. Already the movies, the radio and other forms of media to do the church as the minister must meet this competition with improved appeal. Reaches The Spot The successful newspaper, day in and day out, "reaches the spot," to speak, with increasing efficiency, and the newspaper has decreased circulation, nor popular interest in the newspapers. The reason is that they keep up to the minute by studying the trend and interest. YET EVERY DAY THE DEAD WITH THE SAME OLD ELEMENTS OF HUMAN BEHAVIOR YOU SEE THE START OF THE BEGINNING OF MANKIND. THE SKILLED EDITOR JUST DRESSED THEM IN MODERN CLOSETS AND ATTRACTIVE. THAT'S WHAT THE MINISTER MUST LEARN TO DO. Never do I hear the average person preached the modern preacher with its weak treatment of vitis and moving happenings of the Bible but that I long for a blue pen and opportunity to give it some The Bible is teeming with vital stories; with human interest; with good statesmanship, ideas and manlianistic principles, with still untold priceless thousands of years to reach. But treated by most ministers they become warbling platitudes and sing-song milk and water advice too weak for even the most ardent Jesus. Christ was interesting because he clothed his words and doctrines in vital and human interesting sentences with practical applications with illuminating words. He called an adulterer an adulterer and a thief a thief. And the reporters who wrote the Bible would have been called velheres, this his day of prudery and hypocrisy. Think how vital that story of Ananias and his wife holding back that money belonging to the Temple implied without gloves to any number of members by name in the average church. And no minister would have to teach that story to Genesis 39: 1-14, where the virile wife of the worn out officer, Potiphar tries to vamp the young dreamy-eyed Joseph. Joseph's strength in standing out would be a brand new story to most young men. And take that scene from Matthew 14: 1-12 where the daucer of Herodias danced almost naked and made him give her the head of John the Baptist at the behest of a conscience-stricken mother whom John had offended. He heard about Ruth, paint her as a heroine, but those Bible reporters set the story down in Ruth, 3rd chapter: in a vital way, as a progressive young woman who deliberately went on to help her people, she wanted to help her people. Think how many people would wake up in church and shift picture and the date they had the following week, if the preacher made them actually see and find their minds near these, the human life of bartered the human life of a Christ of Nazareth. And think what currents of active thought speak to the human world, only applied to it, certain Bishops, Ministers, Lodge men, Editors, and erst. hille leaders who sell the human life of potage for the mass of potage.

Girls now take the initiative in promoting sex affairs. The modern girls seem frequently to be driven by a complex that makes them parade their sex. The automobile has been responsible for much of this. Liquor and indecent dancing also play a great part. The trouble really goes back to the woman of Eden for Adam said "the woman tempted me."

By MAUDE P. BELL A few years ago it was found necessary to tear out the whole front of 2121 Druid Hill avenue and reconstruct it. It was great that it seemed possible for the front to tumble in at any moment. Very few of the neighboring residents or onlookers knew just what actually caused the list. They were thrown up too rapidly and that fussy building material caused it. Others that there was a sleight hole or inline in that particular spot. Those of the latter group came closest to the real scene. Up to 1899 the section bounded by the east side of the 2100 block of Druid Hill avenue, south side of the four hundred 'block' of Gold street, west side of the Bloom street, north street and North side of the four hundred block of Bloom street, was an undeveloped city lot. It was a part of the whole outlying northwest section which was then almost entirely undeveloped just outside the city Soundway on North avenue. Boundary Avenue North avenue was called Boundary Avenue until the houses were renumbered in the late Eighties. Very recently an old resident was heard to spate of North avenue as Boundary Avenue. It was then possible to stand on the spot now occupied by the residence of Mrs John Henry Smith and the son of Mrs John Smith and the horse cars drive into the broms, some of which are still standing. This special lot mentioned above was the natural lot mentioned for the neighborhood, both white and colored. It was the scene of many embryo race riots which were always of short duration albo sometimes very intense. They always ended in a spirit of peaceful In the middle of the plot was a small pond which was the deli-bit of the small boys who killed their sometimes hand-made wading boards when they waded or throwing pebbles into it to watch the rings spread, on the surf cee or pelting the frogs that hopped in and out. In the winter the same pond served as the nightingale pond. Mothers found it necessary to run errands themselves which they had planned for the children to do, who ran in from school, threw down their books and rushed out to the playground where mother could make requests. Some of the mothers were strong enough of voice to summon their offspring from the back door by calling which they were waiting for the time, the city was growing in area and expanding in every direction, and development companies were here. The F. O. Siney Company bought some houses used for the children on the east side of the 2100 block of Druid Hill avenue. Pond Filled In There was the pond to be considered; they could not build in the pond which was d'^m in the middle, so they decided to fill it in They invited the neighborhood to throw in all their discarded rubbish and ashes toppin' it off with a few loaves of saffron. This might have made up for Nature's neglect a making the entire pool level had leaked the urine time the house had to build too strong and prospective buvers, very anxious to move into a new house so near the fami's Dudl Park, would not and the small settlement. To the developers it was indeed a small matter, for had not the contractor assured me that he would make the weakness of the house by the "strong found" them he was laving and the "best building material" he was using? Besides, did it need an ad agency, did it need of shoes, tin cans,灯 harnesses, mattress* and sand from "Sand Town" (a section which will be described later in this chapter) In 'bout six months after the last load of sand was dummed into the cavity the houses were completed and occupied. The houses from 1919 and 1921 Hill avenue and House number 3212 was built in the middle of the spot where the pond had been. As the house firm enough to stand the weight with the old resident who remembered the pond, once said: "The only way to make dat house set straight is to tear it down and die down the bottom of the pond and use dat foundation." Henry Haze History House number 2101, now the residence of J. Winfield Thomas, was once owned by an artist and a development in the development and in the political life of Baltimore. House number 2113, the residence of Killian Gallis, was once the residence of Killian Maryland's food administrator during the World's War, and who did a few urban burial sections. Mr. Killian was engaged in the nine business and had an extension on the back of the building, and he used in connection with his vocation. He abandoned the idea later and used the upper part of the extension for a library and the lower for a children's play THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, JANUARY 19, 1929 The girls begin the petting.

Among are: architects whose apartments at 2101 the late Professor Joseph H. Lockerman and family, and Miss Annie R. Miller, both well known in the educatorial circle of Baltimore, lived. L. L.

Church, owned and resided at 2111. House number 2111 is now the residence of caterer Harmon. House number 2131 is the residence of William Whyte, head waiter of Hotel Emery. Rev. D. G. M. Gack, pastor of Macedonia Baptist Church, resides at 2135 Druid Hill avenue. Dr. B. M. R. Mutha, one J. Baltimore physicians and actively resides at 2139. Mrs. John Henry Smith, widow of the late John Henry Smith and mother of J. Winfield Thomas, resides at 2143 Druid Hill avenue. Dr. Pete B. Bates, located at Druid Hill and North avenue, occupies the plot once used by the Salutation Army as a summer camping ground. They held out-door meetings there for several weeks. Church on North avenue, Gold and McCullah street, for many years stood on a vast city plot alone. It was built and stood there alone before Gold street was even paved with asphalt.

PASSED FOR WHITE PASSED FOR WHITE (Continued from Page One.c) for a marriage license and I am not ashamed of it. When I question came up for a job for did I was white of all of us were married without any sign of trouble. My wife and I are happy and after thirty years of married life we have grown to be in addition to my six children, I have three grand-children, and there is no science on earth that can show a colorful blood in any of our offspring. Others Did The Same I know too that other malnutures have done what I have done, but I don't know what they are, or where they are. Therefore, I say, Mr. Black Man, if you want all the blessings of this good old U. man, simply change the color of your skin. Blot Out Segregation The only way to stop the mixing of the two races, is to give the colored boys and girls who are educated the positions in life for which they have been cut out for segregation, jim-crow, etc. Then, and not until then, will a black man be content to remain black; but continued oppression is the black man will make him do anything to get away from this oppression. This article is written in answer to articles in your issue of January 5, 1929. And what I have written here in these few pages is for publication in next week's APBO, and voices my disapproval for the filler of Hampton. Hard To Get Work As long as the white American race continues to place a very high premium on the color of the clothing, every inhabitant of the good U. S. A. going to strive to be white and can you blame the colored man for not wearing a white shirt? A colored man with a dark skin often fails in landing a job where on the other hand a mutilated willow tree is used as ads in the 'help wanted column'—Wanted—"A light complexioned colored man." Right there a premium is placed on his lightness of No. Wholesale Mixing Bear in mind. I do not advocate the mixing of the races on a wholesale basis, that would never do. Neither do I advocate the marriages of extreme colors, but an amateur to an elite, any white person, yes. I say let them marry; where the extreme colors marry there is likely to be trouble or embarrassment. A slow process of amalgamation points on to the fact that in time all race hatred will be a thing of the past. Italians, Jews, Russians Colored people are not devending wholly on the Anteo-Saxon race for intermarriage; for there are the Italian, Jews, Russians and lots of other I know one mutatio who left the good U. S. A. and went to London, England, and married white. He is now lost to his colored brother for this was over a hundred years ago. The Misses Again, as soon as the masses of whites once find out and believe that colored people are in handsome clothes, having education refinement you will find more inter-marrying. As it is now, it makes no difference; how much you like the masses of whites fulvive that all colored people in shacks and tumble down houses. Don't Believe There Are Doctors In this present day and time there are lots of whites who believe that no snow is coming, a doctor, a lawyer, or colored business man; they do believe, however, that there are colored school teachers and ministers. My own daughter, who is white, far cannot understand why some colored people ride around in Packards and Buicks, and the high-mounted cars. She asked me, they owned them. A Jew once said the same thing at a small public Now what are you roining to do? How can you use it? What skills do you have that you have education, refinement, e-lure, backbone, business ability, fine cars and fine Important of Press **Tenantate.** There are a lot of whites who do not know that there is such a thing as a colored newswoman. Hence, how are you going to get in with these masses? Remember I use the word "masses" a number *c* times, because it is the masses of whites with which I am familiar. A good many individual whites know what some colored people are doing and the progress they are making, want to site you with just one thing a thing that happened in my time. Turnag Down Negro As a director of a very large business, doing business all over the U.S. A. we advertise in newspapers and in a very responsible position. To my very great surprise a colored man amuled, a graduate of Columbia University, was the man I would have made good but I had to refuse him on account of his color. This man had high hair, b. color was his ruin. I have always had taken him. This is only one of the many instances that go on in the world. Such treatment is hard to have taken children if for colored children after graduating from high schools and colleges cannot get respectable jobs on account of color, these same children will be white, and can you blame them? World Against You Of course those who face a miserable ambition will face a miserable, and some will probably resort to crime, for when all the world is against you and knocks you at every turn, you soon realize.

Around About Baltimore Theer was once a time when street cleaners were known . . . "white-wings" because they wore white uniforms and always had both arms stretched out one with a broom and the other with a tude, except when they were parked in a bar, washing down a raw onion sandwich with a big glass of beer. The uniforms, on parade they had the aspect of a real sanitary corps intent upon cleaning up the Florida Everglades or a yellow fever epidemic fact, unless some manure insisted upon being lifted into the "perambulator" they were absolutely harmless where sanity or sanitation was concerned. The fact remains, however, they looked the part. Those days seem to be gone forever. The "esprit de la mort" of the present incumbent down to the next cleaner or at least the dark most section of that herd, wielding brooms in the Northwest section has to be moved to a wartime term, would say our boys are being camouflaged to the extent that if you do not see the container in close proximity, you recognize the man in his canopy. While speaking of, "this army, I might mention that, "General Garland, the chief executive department of the bowling alley on Pennsylvania avenue, and "more formerly, the detective service department of the grounds, has transferred his allegiance and is now on duty on Paca street in the vicinity of the Lexinzor cart and broom. All of those people who yet own horses and are not too old to read are requested to go to work at Garland" some work, as times are hard. There Is A Reason Checking up on the social activities of the Christmas season I find that while a number of clubs, socials and organizations bent their efforts to entertain and in many cases did not attend, I find that any of them strained themselves to make their guests have a Merry Christmas. As was natural, some outdid the others and after all of the information I had abutted, I listed Mizel Chichin as the list for social aggressiveness and financial backing. The Mitzl Club held a "stomping down good" entertainment during the holidays, so much so people are taking it, like a pleasant evening. The club held forth in what the manager of the Penn hotel insists on calling the Golden Slips room, to the slips of the hotel, which been found there. The place was arranged as a cabaret and the members of the club acted as waitresses was easy for them to do. They served most every kind of sandwich, gingerale, and a few other things to admit the evening was pleasant, extraordinary and must have called for the laying down of much "iron". Speculation is rife as to how the event will be displayed. But when it is considered, the Mitzl Club, about two months previous to their invitational affair, is head and also went on record as being the first organization in the State of Maryland, excepting the courts and police stations, to charge out theft in theWhy of the treasury should be easy to figure out. Start At The Bottom The Maryland Legislature is being respectfully petitioned to repeal the Jim Crow law of the State. The legislature is seeking to access those people engaged in the undertaking and there is no good reason why they should not have success, because they have no power over other Jim Crow propositions should be overlooked. The Jim Crow cars were put on by an act of the legislature and, of course, they should not remove them, but those signs in the "comfort" station saying White and Gored were authorized by no one in fact, some one put them up on. If nobody objects, I nominate Dilyon and Bishop Gaines, two prominent Republican leaders, W. T. McCormick and Walter Emerson and ask are these signs up there. When a legislature was needed to get them up, surely two big men and Emerson can get them down. THE Evolution of Service SERVICE IS A WORD meaning "helping people for years that at times one is at a loss to tell exactly what the word means. The word is the stenomy of churches, organizations, gasoline stations and automobile repair shops. Men lately out of the army or the navy say, "I was in the service, while men congregated in a little service." Today service is endless, reaching all around the world and, according to gentlemen of the church, the throne of Heavenly grace. Service is now screamed from the roof tops and it appears that one never gets enough of it. It is boasted about, written of and talked about in sermons and endless conditions. It was not ever thus in Baltimore. There was a time when service was spoken of in low tones. Most of the times it was spoken of of the matter it was a direct insult to the matter it was a direct insult to refer to service or to indicate that any one present was in any way connected with or knew anything about it at all. Though so many people then than now, most of the parties who had first hand information about it dodged the lie. This was back in the day the colored lawyers were known of, so soon they were aware of your people employed in the office, when some of the schools yet had white teacher eighty-five per cent of all schools subsisted of. The Cold Keena could better be described as food left the place where it rightfully lingered when the cook made her parture for the evening. The winter ward apart to sew the winter ward on little children. As I said before, service has different meaning then from what it has now: was soldon used by them to imitor colored people when to themselves in a manner all at once, and along with place. But now, as in New York, the place, thereby starting in to another good English word that came upon a time boro a good reputation. 8 CHICAGOANS OPEN LITTLE THEATRE House Opened Thursday Nite With Plays Of Negro Life HOLD ART EXHIBIT TOO CHICAGO, Ill. — Encouraged by the warm reception here of "Porgy" and "In Abraham's Boston," the Cube, a little theatre, Thursday evening opened its program of plays dealing with Negro life.

OFFER HUGHES BAND SAVOY BALLROOM JOB Royal Theatre Orchestra Leader Offered Contract In New York Outfit Made Hit On Previous Appearance There An offer of an attractive contract to the Savoy Ballroom was received this week by Irvin Hughes, leader of the Royal Theatre Symphony Orchestra, but it is not the gift that he will accept. Mr. Hughes, whose orchestra has played on other occasions, at the engagements in a number of other large cities, was in direct communication with Charles Buchmann, manager of the that controls the Savoy in New York and another ballroom by that name in Chicago. "I have given the offer serious consideration," Hughes said. "On Wednesday morning, 'and do not believe that I can accept it now.

By TICKLE TOE Having established a good reputation with Baltimore's dance public by bringing from the of the latest hits direct from the conductor and director of the famous Royal Flush Orchestra, played to a crowded house at the New Albert Casino, last Wednesday. In my opinion, Williams and his colleagues have one of the jazz hits that other orchestras are attempting to put over big, yet they had to reckon with Baltimore's Jazz Demons, considered to be one of the first class orchestras. The two outfits, both famous in this section and with reputations for always bringing something new to Jazz Demons, was hard to decide which was the winner. The visitors consisted of eleven men, playing around eighteen instruments, which he did. Despite the lack of men, Dixon made up with harmony and jazz for the loss of volume. We'll give the visitors a break and call the musicians the patrons a WHOO-PEEF time. The reaction of the formal affairs and the matter of formality has taken the younger set by storm. As was predicted several months ago in this column, Baltimore will witness one of the thrilling dances of dance when the Apex S. and L.

The dance has been named "Half Way To Heaven," and every one is expected to feel he has reached the cherished and deserved place. Facilities for dancing have been improved with the erection of the Odd Fellows' and Elks' halls, but according to reliable reports, the Knights of Pythias expect to have one which is second to none in the city for beauty.

When away from London on his several tours, he lived in the homes of the people in Spain, and in other large cities, such as Paris, Milan, Naples, Berlin, Hamburg, Barcelona, and Madrid, his engagements were oftimes private affairs arranged between the in the upper classes.

ALONG THEATRE ROW ALONG THEATRE ROW One answer to the question "What's the matter with the show business?" is given in the following report of an interview with Mabel Whitman, owner and producer of the Whitman Sisters show. PILADELPHIA—"What," I asked Miss Mabel Whitman, "is the matter with the show business?" Sister Mae is in her seventh week of the current season at Johnson's playhouse in Maker City. Her seventy weeks for a big company upstairs is a unique thing and when a show can still draw after that elapsed period, it is almost a miracle. It proves the theatre owner has worked with the troupe has class and crowd-appeal. What is Wrong "What is wrong with the show business?" she checked back at me. "I know the answer." "The trouble with this game is a set of unscrubulous owners and a set of indiscriminate themselves together to stifle progress along the lines of art and entertainment. The game is good enough for a colored audience and their only desire is to have a comedian and a few half-naked girls on hand to keep the doors Insult Intelligence "They insult the intelligence, and prey on the necessity, of Negro patrons. They sense that the people must have some place to go for amusement. Instead, they must offer the worst, as long, as they can. "When the crowd gets fed up on that sort of diet, they try to book a good meal, and they pay a good money they pay an amusing company which was made an overnight. This is what a certain owner told me. "If necessary I have been losing money all year and I have to get out of the red on your engagement, I won't pay you what you want." "You have a family company. You don't need money because you all work and are together. Come on, let's eat and see." "Well, I stayed out, I am staying out and I never in life will play for a man who tells me I have to look forisses he has suffered from bem shows. Cltes Figures "Let me give you some figures in this particular case, years ago, when I was 14, I used to pay me a guarantee of $1,400. I went in on a percentage and took away $2,700 for my end of the receipts. The last time we played the game, we paid $3,750. Then, when he tried to get me this fall, he offered me a guarantee of $1,600 instead of the most percentage and explained himself by writing out the rules. With this in mind, to make up for the bad weeks other people had given him. "He offered me $1,600 for a company of 50 people, and I would have cost him $400 in railroad fare, exclusive of baggage transportation, to get there. (Excuse me if I am not as calm as usual.) What encouragement does a producer get out of that sort of stuff? How can you improve and develop your shows and people? There is no more measure of good for a miserable outfit." "This is what an owner did here in Philadelphia. He went to the individual members of a show in house and asked that he show off his offering as an excuse that he was about to produce a show and wanted to use them in it. At the end of the week he paid off the performers himself by giving the product to his salary. "What does 'Mabel Whitman' mean to men of that type?" Does my name stand for anything with them? For no more than 'Mabel Jack Rabbit.' "With them it is an insolent thing to do about it? Take it or leave it." "Well, I am one producer who can 'leave it.' "If these birds pay you a living wage it will not rain or snow during the week you are booked with them. Something must be done and that, quickly. "Some Fair Owners, However "But there is another picture, a bright and cheerful one. All owners are not in that category. In this game there are no worth your weight. They will either pay what you ask or not book your show at all until they feel that they can do so. And they will pay you the same money or percentage for return you made to their patrons pleasing entertainment and you always work harder for such managers. Believe me, twenty years' experience by Mae Whitman means working in Newark, Newark, N. v. York, Atlantic City, and here in Philadelphia are owners who will always give us enough time to make out a season. They don't do it out of sympathy they don't do it out "True, they are our friends. But they realize that we own more scenery, and more land, and more information, thus reducing the house overhead. They know we are money-makers. They appreciate these things. That's why, in the course of our life, we light weeks with Mr. Gibson and other high-class theatrical men. Indeed. I spend so much time in Philadelphia that it is a second home for me. And now do you know what is the matter with the show business?" THE HOME OF GREAT PICTURES MONDAY—Open 2 P. M.—Geo.

NIGHT Feared Role Gave Too Much "Equality"; White Actors Used NEW YORK—Instead of being a dashing hero, as originally intended, the Negro leader of the jazz orchestra in "Johnny Spielt Auf!" will become a black-face comedian when Ernest Krekenk's opera has its American premiere at the Metropolitan Opera house here January 19. The change in the annual Krekenk biroreth was designed more suitable for American audiences; it was explained at the opera house early next week. The name role will be sung by Michael Bohnen, white bass-baritone of the Metropolitan. Change Considered Tactful When Catti-Casella first announce the importation of the Krekenk opera for the present season, a good deal of doubt was expressed concerning the propriety of allowing a colored person to sing before the sacred circle of parentee boxes. The present composer was worried to be made with the consent of the author and composer, it regarded tactful compromise. The opera was first produced February 11, 1927, at the Liebig Opera House and since then has occasioned much controversy in European musical circles. Translation of the title "Jonny Sings Up the Band" – for the Metropolitan program has been translated into "Jonny Strikes Up The Band." The French call it "Johnny Leads the Dance" and another version is "Johnny Jazzes It Up." The climax of the opera is at the end when Johnny perched at a huge rock in a railroad track and muses the whole world to dance the Charleston to the music of his jazz band.

Reevin, manager and treasurer of the Theatre Owners' Booking Association, the attractions account for a meeting with success at all three venues. The week of January 7th showed better returns over a like period than many weeks preceding the holidays. It is the belief of officials of the circuit, and a logical one, that the shows are getting better support due largely to the fact that they are booked sufficiently in advance to allow for proper advertising and billing. The manager of the theatre with the new system and schedule of booking in effect at present, has no booking worries, as he knows what he will have from three to twelve weeks in advance. A Story of flaming love! WHITE SHADOWS IN THE SOUTH SEAS GEORGE BIAS HEADS ROYAL VAUDE BILL GEORGE BIAS HEADS ROYAL VAUDE BILL George Bias came back into his own as a local stage favorite, headlining the vaudeville bill at the Royal Theatre this week with a program of his latest successes. Mr. Bias sang "Somewhere Someone" in "Cotton Candy" and "Since You Went Away" two numbers which have just recently been released by the Columbia Phonograph Company. He sang as an encore "Halfway To Heaven." All of his numbers were well received by the dressed houses that have been greeting him during his week's engagement. Furnishing comedy on the vaudeville bill is "Speedy" Wilson, local favorite, who recently returned from London where he has been playing in the "Trial of Marv Dugan" company. "Speedy" dished out a line of monologue and song that pleased. The team of Patterson and Freeman presented a clever dance routine for the young team entertained in song and dance, the male member of the team receiving a good hand for his singing of "Sonny Boy". Stewart's dance routine was also given a hand. Photoplays ROYAL Photoplays ROYAL "Sally's Shoulders"; "Honeymoon Flats"; "Grip of the Yukon." "Sally's shoulders," which has been long awaited by many thousands of readers who followed the story when it appeared as a newspaper serial, will play the Royal Theatre on Monday and the Tuesday. Under the direction of young Shorell, the appealing narrative of the girl who had the care of an entire family thrust upon her shoulders, and endangered her own romance to protect a weakling brother and heartless sister, has been vividly transferred to the screen.

The story of a path of newly-weds eaget to be independent of their "in-laws," is the basis of this clever feature. "Grip of the Yukon," a classic of the great outdoors, with and all-star cast, will be shown Friday and Saturday. For the special benefit of children, a morning performance will be held Saturday of the picture "Wings." Admission, 15 cents. STAGE REVIEW STAGE REVIEW Star TILLIE JOHNSON'S REVIEW With four comedians occupying the stage most of the time and giving most of the entertainment during the one hour and five minutes, Tillie Johnson's Review, playing the Star this week, goes over fairly well, but not as well as it should, since it contains such an abundance of good performers. Included in the cast are Boots Hope, Melvin "Bear Hunter" and Lerov White, who handle most of the legitimate comedy; Henri Bowman in characterizations; Johnny Williams, as straight man; Tillie Johnson as leading woman, and a fast and snappy chorus. Archie Murphy, the talented juvenile dancer, did his steps in a professional style, but he was much out of his presentation as he should have.

THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, JANUARY 19, 1929 SOUTH SEA PICTURE FEATURE AT REGENT Monte Blue To Be Seen In "White Shadows In The South Seas" "SHOW PEOPLE" NEXT Story Of Inside Life At Hollywood Three Days Thrilling adventure and exotic romance feature the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production, "White Shadows in the South Seas," which will be the featured attraction at the Regen; Theatre Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. The story is laid in the South Seas, that amazing mystery place of waving palm trees, soft southern winds and eccentric scenery. It concerns the fate of a primitive race, the native Polynesians who, as every schoolboy has been taught, will are within a few years will have vanished from the earth. It opens with a passage which shows what terrible hardships the whites have and are infilting on these simple natives—how, led on by the white man's greed for pearls, they dive to terrific depths where their bodies are crushed by the tremendous depths and their souls by the white man's indifference. With this opening, the story goes into an amazing adventure, to Dr. Lloyd Monte, the schoolboy who earns the enmity of the whites by his friendship with the natives and who is shanghaid from the island aboard a pest ship. Inside Dope on Hollywood "Show People," a story of the inside life of Hollywood, will be shown Thursday and run the remainder of the week. Marian Davies and William Haines are in the leading roles. This story is the romance of a girl who comes to the film city, enters pictures by the comedy route, becomes a dramatic star, nearly loses everything because her success goes to her head, and is saved at last by the machinations of William Haines and by her own sense of humor. But that isn't the half of it. Vidor has filmed his action where and when it should take place, be it the commissary, the front walk, the studio gate, in the projection rooms on one of the buid stages. For example, "Peggy," the heroine, on arrival in Hollywood tries to crash the gate of every leading studio and gets kicked out of all of them. The locales also have their interest because of the many famous personages who "happen" in, or are working in the background of the picture. The list includes John Gilbert, Greta Garbo, Tim McCoy, Charles Chaplin, Estelle Taylor and many, many others.

"Deep Harlem" Promoter First Saw Show At The "Royal" Resolution To Take Production To Broadway Made After Viewing Mid-Nite Performance Here. If "Deep Karlem", the new musical that opened last week at the Biltmore Theatre in New York makes the grade it can trace the birth of its success to Baltimore — and if it fails, but it lay biding it. The point of this preliminary is to relate that had not Sam Grisman, white, New York promoter, stopped in at the Royal Theatre for the midnight show Sunday, December 16, the production might have be still foundering around searching for a book to lay biding it.

M. T. Finney for the doctors of Maryland, which began on Jan. 11th. Dr. Finney has arranged for these clinics, and, according to Attorney C. C. Fitzgerald, the president of the board, all of the colored doctors in the State have been urged to attend. The first clinic was held on January 11th. The dates have not all been given out as yet, but due notice will be served on all parties concerned. Rosenwald Representative Here Last week Mr. Milton W. Applegarth, representative of the Rosewall interests, was in Baltimore and it is understood he came here for the special purpose of inspecting the new Provident Hospital.

It is repeated the telephone was very much pleased as well as interested in the way in which the proposition is being put over. 50 Physicians: Present More physicians are present, according to hospital officials, when a clinical study of Intestinal Obstruction was demonstrated. Doctor's Complain Although local physicians comment on this clinic, severe criticism is being made of the announcement made by Dr. Finney that the wards would be closed to all but staff physicians. In commenting on this phase of the announcement, Wm. J. Wright declared: "The hospital should be open to all reputable race physicians as it receives aid from city, state and community. "The rule barring physicians from wards is unjust, especially to task-contributing fund contributors." A number of leading physicians are also said to be in open opposition to the rule of barring them from their own patients in the wards. Charged with non-support Harry R. Barber, 222 W.

Jones, Vice President, Filled Unexpired Term The selection of a president to fill the place left vacant by the death of John R. Cary will be one of the chief items of interest at the fourth annual meeting of the Baltimore-Urban League to be held on January 31, according to a statement issued by P. Marlene Moss, Executive Secre- tary of the organization this week. Since the death of Mr. Cary on the eighth of last August the Urban League had been without a president. William N. Jones, managing editor of the AFRO-AMERICAN, the vice-president of the body, assumed the duties of the office and has served since that time. Under his leadership the League has continued to function smoothly, but Mr. Jones has declared that he will not be a candidate for the vacancy A nominating committee, headed by Mrs. Sara Bolling Mason, and including in its membership C. Ernest Baker, Mrs. Lilian A. Lottier, who as W. Y. Clark, and Hattie T. Pratt was appointed some years ago by Jones to select a successor to Mr. Clinton.

Grant Bidding Farewell To Colored Troops Oldest Resident Of Aged Home Says Incident Took Place On Vacant Lot Near Calvert and Baltimore Streets—She Also Witnessed First Blood Shed In Civil War The hearth circle at the Church, Home of the Bethel African M. E. Church, at Lexington and Alsquith streets, was broken last week when Edward Jenkins, 72-years old and a former member of Sharp Street Memorial Church died and was buried from the chapel of the institution. He had been a three-year member of a companion circle of 29 others—five men and twenty-four women—who pass the time conversing reminiscently and dreaming of younger days. The oldest in age and in point of residence at the home is Miss Hannah Brown. She is 80 years old and has been at the home 20 years. church. It held its first service in the chapel last Sunday. The Rev Richard A. Green, delivered a sermon. TWO WOMEN, ONE MAN FILE DIVORCE BILLS Desertion Given As Cause Of Desire To Gain Freedom. Three persons filed complaints for absolute divorces in Circuit Court, through the offices of Roy S. Bond, Saturday. SHE IS OLDEST "There are none here who were here when I came," she said, to substantiate her claim as senior of the fraternity. She sits at the home like time. They come and go, but she free-born child of a free-born mother, she was brought to Baltimore when she was 13 months old. Her father had bought his freedom at Bay Side, on the Eastern Shore. She remembers that they died during the hectic days after the War, leaving her a small girl to shift for herself. When General Joseph Brent, her first employer, left Baltimore to enlist with the Confederate forces she was forced to seek another job. She recalls working as a cook for a Governor Joseph Brown. WHEN SOLDIERS PASSED THRU Among her most vivid and cherished memories are incidents of the Civil War. She witnessed the first blood shed in the struggle—when the Union troops, 19,651 men, were set upon and mobbed by populace. Working up to the subject of the war, her open eyes lighted with pride as she broke into a satiric ballad which she said was popular in the city. General McClellan said he was going to Richmond. From there to the Dutch Gap. He didn't want the Colored man, For with 10,000 white men brave The noble Union he could save. "But his men got slaughtered and killed." The union got in tears. And called for the help of Colored volunteers." COLORED SOLDIERS No significant event of the war was to escape her. She told of seeing General Grant taking leave of Colored soldiers of his 39th regiment, at the close of the war, on a lot near Calvert and Baltimore streets. With a tone of triumph, her voice she represented as general as holding one William Henry Fisher, a Colored sergeant and saying, "Boys you have been faithful. I hate to leave you. I'll miss you. I hope to never hear of one of you giving an insult, or taking one." NEVER MARRIED Miss Brown has never been married. Her life not marrying are all her own, except that "she didn't get round to it." ONE BLIND Among the inmates of the home is one blind, Mrs. Clara O. Crew, 65, of Hagerstown, Md. The ever readiness of her companions to lead her about the home keeps her from ever wanting for a guide. But she has a keenness of mind that seems to give her an ascendance to success. Her quick reproofs to some inapt thought or remark are fully acquiesced to. Mrs. Crew entered the home two years ago a widow and unable to support herself because of her failing sight. She has no children or near relatives. Her sight finally left her after being in the home a year. SANG SOPRANO "I was a member of Ebenezer A. M. E. Church at Hagerstown for 25 years," she said, recalling her church career as the most significant phase of her life. "I was a steward, a careless, and sang soprano in the choir."

Editor) WASHINGTON. — The hydra- headed monster, foul shot, caus- sed the Howard Bisons some em- barkrassment, here the capital Friday night so mu m it you to growl out a 33-25 victory over the Bur- man to the strains of "That's My Weakness Now. The first of the series of annual conflicts between these two warring factions took place in the university gym before a crowd that packed every available inch of standing room. It was a typical Howard crowd that greeted the two teams as the game got under way one minute ahead of scheduled time at 8:29 p.m. collegiate world was out of the and a small number of Memorial City folks were sprinkled here and there about them as the two teams "It developed a few minutes after the game had been under way that the officiating was going to be of an uneconomically technical character and boos began to greet the decision of Referee Westmoreland and Umpire Cupid as they began to fight right and left. Of 31 foul were called by these officials, the distribution being about as even as could beashed. Morgan receively Howard a like amount with one thrown in for good measure. Neither side, then, could lay much claim to partia." Bisons Miss Fouls Howard missed a total of thirteen out of twenty-two chances from the foul line while the Bears made good on eleven of eighteen chances from the 15-foot line. When they were in the matter of shooting while Williams and Simpson made good or the Howardites. In the last half Morgan was successful in seven of eight tries to the basket from the foul line. The first field goal was made by Captain Jerome. The Bison won the Howard rambent went with eustacy. The fight was on "Lanky" Jones then arched one for the Bears, but not Lafore the Washington lads had garnered a brace of points via the free throw from Dennis Simpson trifled in thru the cords and wielded "Rapp" Wheatley a bucket Sir Dennis duplicated the feat. Howard's Passing Bad The Howard *i*. jing game was off in spots, the Bisons occasionally passing the sphere directly into the hands of an opponent and frequently making wild passes that prohibited players in scoring position to call "Lanky" Jones and "Pinky Clarke" got their combination of wading and score each, which with addition of a trio of foul shots placed the Morganites in front by a 15-10 score. A brilliant loop shot by Simpson for Ho. rd and a free throw by "Pinky" Clarke brought the count to 16-12 at the recess period. The second half found "Freak" Woods again drawing first blood but with "Pinky" Clarke matchin' him from the floor. When Referee Westmoreland called a foul on *Pinky* for shoving "Lanky" Jones Morgan captain called a foul and debated with the officials. When the matter had not been accepted at the end of the regular time-out period the referee gave Morgan two minutes within which to resume play or else forfeit the contest. Morgan Delays Game The master was adjusted within the prescribed time, the double foul being allowed and a technical foul being added to the Morgan penalty on account of delaying the game. The half saw Williams. Howard forward, and Jack Spears. The second saw the personal foul ex-cantain Louie Coates replacing Williams and Tucker taking Spencer's position. The Howardites gave the Bears a scare when they ran their score from twelve to twenty while the latter team was only climbing from 16 to 21. The Bisons made a desperate effort, their hopes fell when Morgan gradually eased away to get 11 points while they were getting only five. Goals were scored by Clarke, Wheatley and Tucker, for Morgan and Hinton and Coates for Howard. Clarke, Simpson, High Men "Finky" Clarke and Simpson tied for high scoring honors with nine points each the former counting four times from the floor and one the 15-foot mark, while Simpson made three field goals and an equal "Lanky" Jones was held to two number of free throws, baskets from the floor and neither he nor Simpson were able to score second half. "Tucker," diminutive "reserve forward of the Bears," proved his mickey by caging a neat shot beneath the basket and few moments he the game. Play Here Next The defensive play of "Cutie" Brown and "Rapp" Wheatley was of its usual high order but the Morgan forwards found also that the Bisons had a five-man defense for them to buck. Clarke's dribbling was at times sensational in the Capt. Wood tickled the by frequent* passing the ball behind his back. There was no preliminary game. The teams meet again in Baltimore February 18.

The scores were close all the way. The first half ended with the Councils leading 14-13. When the second half began, St. Christopher registered two double deckers in set. Newark were leading set. With the score leading 17-14, the Councils started a spurt and a penalty was called which gave them a chance from the fifteen-foot line. The single point was made and on the next play, Council scored a field point by the count at 17 all, the councils flashed a time-form, then held only for a brief period, but managed to creep away by seven points to lead the score 27-20. With less than five minutes to go and the game almost lost, the Newark boys renewed their attack, their opponents and before Bradford's squares could realize if their With two minutes left, the Councils kept pecking away. They had the lead and they intended keeping it. Two more points were scored in rapid succession and with the now winning Council sank a free throw as the timer's whistle ended one of the most hectic games of the season. To give credit to particular individuals would be unjust for every Council man who his position could be said that Howard Wilson, who is home for the holiday season from Howard University, played a good game at guard. Undefeated 3 Yrs. Claflin Runs Up Season's Score ORANGEBURG. S. C. - Claflin opened the basketball season here with the Voorhees' five of Denmark. South Carolina, Friday, and won by the score of 60-16. The Voorhees' aggregation was playing Claflin for their first time. The Claflin five has suffered only one defeat by a conference team in three years. Clark Trims Atlanta KNOXVILLE. Tenn.—(ANP.)—The Knoxville cagers last Monday defeated Clark University of Atlanta, champions of the Southern conference for the past three years, after a five-minute overtime period, score of 32-31 in one of the fastest basketball games ever witnessed THE AFRO-AMERICAN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY, JANUARY 19, 1929 ATHENIANS DOUBLE SCORE ON SCHOLARS Greeks Lower Colors Of Scholastics In Blood Game, 32-16 HACKETT HIGH MAN Lanky Center Shows The Best Form Of The Season By LEVI JOLLEY Playing a unique style of basketball to puzzle their opponents, the Athenians downed the Scholastics Big Five by the score. 32-16, in the first of a three-game series at the New Albert Casino, Friday night. Nearly 900 persons were on hand when Referee Kae "Kee" Shields signaled for the start of what "opponents pre-defined" would be one of the tightest games of the scission. The Athenians, minus the services of "Billy" Baskerville, were thought to be weakened during the first quarter of the onesided affair. John W. Lewis, utility man of the Scholastics, was prohibited from entering the game until he returned a uniform he had belonged to him, which was highly affiliated with the Athenians for three years, but quit the Greeks to join the Scholars. Scholars Take Lead Directly after the tap off "Chink" Wyatt, almond-eyed forward, drew the first blood y sinking a ringer from the 15-foot-line. Two minutes of fast play elapsed before Payne fouled Hackett, the lean Athenian center, who missed the shot. Wyatt shot from under the basket and a free throw by Wyatt increased the score by one. Rhodes drew the crowd to their feet by a spectacular and difficult shot from the north side of the court. The score now stood 9-0 in the Scholars' favor. The Athenians, seemingly suffering from the effects of their western turf, made a comeback with his situation made by the schoolboys and called time out. Greeks Change Style After changing their style and system of passing, Todd, who was substituted for Baskerville, made the first score for the Greeks, from the fifteen-foot-line. Sheffy, the blonde human dynamo, dribbed through the defense to make a pretty looper. Two fouls and a ringer by Hackett* and a long bull's-eye by Veney put the A'nians in the lead by one point. Veney sank a "tongie" from the center to the court to reverse the positions. Sheffy made two free throws. Allor in an attempt to dribble towards his goal stiff armed Veney knocking his eye-glass protec. or and glasses to the floor, also stunning the player for nearly a minute. Veney made the foul shot. Two foul shots by Todd, two ringers by Hackett and a bull's-eye by shefiy, pt. the Athenians, the large end of the foul, at the first half. The Athenians were successful in scoring 6 out of seven free throws, while the Scholastics made 0, and missed four. Scholars Change Effecting several changes in the line-up, the Scholastics attempted to make a come-back at the beginning of the second half when "Al" Brown made one of his setacular long shots. A technical foul was called on Carter, who failed to report after a substitution Jackson made the throw good. Two baskets from the goofy backs, one by Todd, and four shots by Hackett, Jackson and two by Sheffy while their opponents drew two foul goals. ended the game with the Athemens enjoying a double score lead. Ed. Allor was put out on fouls, the only occurrence of its kind during the game. The Athenians kept their high foul shot average by gettin' five goals out of a similar number of attempts while the Scholastics were successful in two out of three attempts. Hackett Improves The Todd-Sheffy-Hackett combination, supplemented by excellent guarding and passing by Veney and Jackson, proved too strong. The floor work of Hackett featured prominently in every play, he having overcame the inferior complex that has followed him for two years. He also won prominence by being the high point scorer with eleven points to his credit. while Sheffy ran him a close second with ten points. ordinary AN National Collegiate Champions Athletic Officials Must Study To Be Successful List Of Officials Has Increased Steadily Each Year, Writer Finds—Traces Development Since Days Of 1908—Job No Easy One. By EDWIN B. HENDERSON (Director, Department of Physical Education, Junior and Senior High Schools, Washington, D. C.) During the football season the press accounts bear largely on the doings of players and coaches and only occasionally there reference to the work of officials. In the season just past, more than the usual amount of attention was given to the criticism of officials and official groups. This is a good time to consider the whole field of officiating with a view to improvement of the service. Since 1908 I have been actively engaged in officiating in football, basketball and track. In that time my experiences have been varied and closely justified with the development of these sports. In fact a part of officiating is a history of the games themselves. Race Officials Efficient Starting from the time when Negro teams in football could only be counted upon to behave if white men handled the indicator, down to c present, when only a 'new Negro institutions feel the presence of white officials necessary to efficient arbitration, we have a splendid record of attainment. Garnet C. Wilkinson and I heard a leading Negro team state his belief that would be a long day before colored players could be as well controlled by colored officials as by white. Yet within two years all of the games at that institution were handled entirely by colored men the same educator admitted not long ago that he attributed much of the result to the character of the work done by those earlier officials in the Celtics in one of the most aggressive and fastest primaries witnessed here, the "Y" Celtics trounced the Unkings by a score of 36-24. The Celtics demon trated the same form which has made them an attraction with the customers. Claiming the city's 145-1b, championship, the "Y" boys have won, all of their starts so far and expect to end the season with a clean slate. West was the high point scorer for the winners with 15 points to his credit, assisted by Bayside's Allor, he was able to defend much of his ability to defend the sphere. Robinson with 15 points also was in the high bracelet, having to play an almost singlehanded game with the exception of Campbell who assisted him from the guard position.

Phantoms Vanquish the Philly Ramblers GERMANTOWN, Pa. — Jumping off to a commanding lead in the first few minutes of play, the Phantoms were never headed and romped away with a 48-10 triumph over the Philadelphia Rambers on the Wissahickon court here, January 11. Seth Brown and Tom Macey were the stars in the 'Five to five' heuphe, b.th finding a basket with consignments down led both teams with eighteen points. Macey amassed fifteen points, the result of six double-deckers and three tosses from the penalty mark. The Spooks are planning, a three-game series with the following teams, respective leaders of their league for the first time, barking on their southern tour, St. James, Darby Heights and Jack Morris, Big Five. DENTON, Md.—The Denton High School basketball team defeated the Easton High School team by a 24-16 score here Friday night. The Denton girls lost to the Easton girls in a close game, 15 to 11. BASKE vs Times Have Changed The game today is no longer the plunging and kicking game of yesterday. Skill, resourcefulness, brains and speed have been made more quantified by the many makers. In addition to a few games a year between Howard, Shaw, Lincoln, and a few athletic clubs, we have an ever enlarging schedule. This means officials each year have many years to the only officials in the game. Garnet C. Wilkinson K. Savoy, Beckett, Robinson, Douglass, Washington and the writer. At the close of every season now players of yester-year who have wound up their collegiate career break into the game. This article is intended to suggest the way to improve the game by bettering the work of the men who officiate. All of the older successful men in the ranks remember the difficult study every year, going to diligent meetings, studying at summer school, quizzing, observing officials, and weekly discussions. Few men who have not gone in for this work realize the tremendous depression periods an official has, or how nerve disturbing a game is. Older officials have in the days past gone from the field feeling badly because the commission of some kind of judgment or observation, the unkind pungency, the sidelined received unjustly, has made miserable the lives of some officials. Some have suffered physical hurt; at some missiles have been hurled; have been shot at and the police have hired to escort others from the field. Most in an official the game is honest and capable, and peculiary and spiritual, will make the game worth while. NEW YORK — Joe Dundee, "self-witted" world's welleterweight champion, received a rude jolt last week when the New York State Boxing Commission informed him that he must go through with his contract to box Young Jack Thompson or else relinquish his crown. Dundee sidestepped Thompson, pleading an infected elbow, but since that time the elbow has healed and he has fought other bouts, causing the terrible pasting received at the hands of Thompson in Chicago. Dundee said when he returned to his home in Baltimore: "If New York refuses to sanction a bout with Thompson then I will fight him in Chicago, Baltimore, California, or any other place willing to stage the event. Win or lose I want Thompson and nobody else." Loses To Fields Following the sensational win over Dundee, Young Jack Thompson went to the West Coast and received a terrible pasting at the hands of one Jackie Fields. Fields' manager then attempted to shove Thompson into the background by demanding that Fields be allowed a crack at the champion. The fistic fights of New York State settled this however, when they ruled that Dundee must meet Thompson before meeting any other fighter. Morehouse Takes Two MONTGOMERY. Ala.—The Morehouse basketball team took both games from Alabama State here Friday and Saturday by the scores of 25-10 and 25-16. Alabama State centered its attack around the intensive of Henry Wilkinson atunning guard, although the entire quintet showed their possibilities that should be demonstrated to marked advantage in the games against Talladega here on next Wednesday and Thursday. Bison Tip Top Storer WASHINGTON - Howard Juniors Varsity defeated Storer College 59-15, in a one-sided game in the Howard gymnasium, Saturday night.

C. — The Lichtman Carlisle five nosed out the strong Jewish Collegians by a 21-19 score Thursday night. Without the services of Slim Henderson and Eddie Davis, their most versatile performers, the Carlisle five continued on their winning rampage. Bob Hawkins filled in at center in Henderson's place and gave ceptionally good account of himself. Leo Coates, 18-year-old wonder of the Carlisle five, replaced Eddie Davis as a forward and accounted for five his team's total of twenty Ev. Davis and Levine were the high point scorers of the game with three field goals and one free throw each. Game Was Rough The game was about the roughest affair seen here this season, 21 personal fouls being committed. The local champs were in front throughout the entire game leading at the half by an 11-7 count. It was only in the closing four minutes of play that the Carlisle tossers lose to lose their punch in the Jewish team closed in to a threatening score. However, a perfect freeze of the hall in the last ten seconds of play put a dampen on the hopes of the white boys chances of victory. The low score is indicative of the excellent effective play put up by both clubs. On account of the closeness of the score, the game will probably be staged at an early date.

Wills had only three minutes to play the "Y" boys show: their best form; and scored ten points, all field goals, in this period while Shields could only find the As in previous games the outstanding feature of the game was the team play and fight of the Big "Y" team.

One that is causing a ripple of laughter in some quarters and healthy equine merriment in others is that in which the Manassa Mauler, waxing dramatic thru his tears, says: 'Yes, boys! Do you, do, remember it's for the old Tex.' The Tex in this instance, than, older than the late George L. Rickard. you had been Demingy said instead: "Boys, if ever I do the gloves again it will be for the sake of those three Musketeers, Andrew Jackson, Abraham Lincoln, and George Washington" we believe he would have come closer to stating the truth, for do not the likenesses of these immortal leaders dignity to the ten, five, and one-dollar bills, respectively? Good old Jack, he WOULD be loyal in that way, but you can compare pillar's last simoleon that unless the purse seemed fat enough it would be a rather convenient thing for the former champion to misplace his memory for a All of which is a preliminary to the question as to what is to become of George Godfrey and the hinted match between the Big Truck ville and the Manasca Mauler.

For forloung Walker the big gentleman has had a cool $1,000 subtracted from his bankroll and in addition has received an indefinite suspension which is effective in New York state and Pennsylvania. Walker was also indefinitely suspended for not putting up a good fight. George, if memory serves us right, has fouled other fighters and when he was WINNING just as he was doing in Philadelphia a fortune. Of course the loss is charged up by him, but of his show he was passed. Now is that the nice way he was being rated by Dempsey as the greatest of the present crop of heavyweights? And by the way when you think of it, Dempsey's remarks appear to he a sort of left-handed compliment. Someone first in a race with one-legged men. If Dempsey does not fight George will anyone else fight him—we mean one outside of the string of hams like he has been passively advertised to show before fight fans in this city, but it seemed that the local promoters and George couldn't get at the last moment, shady work was hinted and Baron Dougherty kept his his shoulder in the Pennsylvania hills.

A NEW FOOTBALL RULE next season will be the one recommended by coaches that a fumbled ball be dead at the point of recovery by the DE-SCHEEK. By the LIEKING last year read: "A muff or fumble of a punt may be recovered by the KILOKING side, but not advancing beyond the point of the ball." year's rule stops both defensive and attacking with the ball. Pity it was not in enemy territory. Riagel, California captain-elect, raced Tech in the wrong way. 70 yards against him with much foaming at the mouth by many fans when this new rule goes into effect, for they will insist that it will kill the turbine game. The rule will put a stop to the scooping up of a turbine by turning from a substitute to the scooping a dash of fifty or more yards for a old Alma Mater. touchdown for our team. These boys who pay their hard earned (2) cash to see these games expect to get a clock out of football (no pun intended) and it is only natural that they expect to see some brilliant ninety dashes down the field as the event's shadows are lengthening and a sinking sun reveals the rival teams of Podunk and Hoboken facing the possibility of playing a scoreleast. That's what these boys want. tie. That's what we need, the gentleman of the fourth estate will probably voice some objection to the ruling, too, for how are they going to write any more glowing headlines and flowy tales of athletic splendor? I ask you. "OLD MAN SOL BUTLER," all-round athlete of bygone college days and still active, comes in for a much-deserved pat on the back. Fifteen years ago, he was an all-round college in Iowa. From there he went on to competitive games. When he held the national championship, he was considered a marvel. His leap recent span of more than 26 feet. The nearly two feet of his indicate just how much time has passed. He is jumping, the baseball player, tennis player, sprint- Football player, basketball player, drummer, jumper. Butler was all of those. Not only was, but is, with scarcely diminished power. He has found him playing professional football, the ranks in which the game is its roughtest. At the end of the football season takes up basketball. This winter he is playing on the Slovakia team, which so far this season has beaten all teams, amateur and professional, that it has played. Nearly a decade ago, he played with the old Forty Club which Chicagoans still remember with pride. Not a one of those players is still actively in the game except Sol. He is still regarded as the best guard in the middle west. He is not much of a shot himself, but he is still active enough to guard the other fellow better than any of the youngsters. He is a sleek, supple animal. They call him "Old Man Sol," but they refer to his years, not his actions.

The period he that such a fund be built in such a way that Mr. Johnson, but we recall that this same thing has been tried unsuccessfully in other years in other lines of endorsers. It is our opinion that even if it were successful, we would be such a host of fingers litching off of silver that it would take an enormous amount of the money seekers away. other committee to shoop all of it. It is one for local groups to handle rather than any national organization. Let the communities in which the athlete raises the money and provide the things necessary to the athlete's greatest development. This, in our mind, seems to be the most logical and least complicated process. We hope we hope to have created enough interest for such groups as these scattered over the country, to function per cent. We would not absolutely, 'cold-wait' any proposition for the relief of our athletes, but neither would we like to become actively engaged in raising the funds. **THE HOWARD BISONS, under the tutelage of Coach "Johnny" Burr, and with an entitlement lineup, bolstered by the return of the Coates, will have to be contended with as a big force in the collegiate basketball world this season.

In looking over the athletic situation in eastern North Carolina, this writer sees that girls get an "even better" dream. breast first let a handbill say that girls will participate in a track meet, swing the tennis rackets on a basketball through the net, and out come the coaches and aunt to see the fair-ones.

But on the other hand, it is the sterner sex that must ask to be terms for the chance to play the The rule here seems to be "no girls, basketball team, no crowd" if the boys play. In fact, in many of the schools classed as girls, girls team whether the boys have one or not. And why not when the latter is nothing but a white elephant to the public? And another star in the girls' crowns is that they don't have to play in those despicable "black bloomers."

With Black, veteran captain of the Bears, sharpshooting from the center of the floor and directing a stubborn defense, the final score seemed ever in doubt. However, superior passing and floor work by the State team would not be denied and the lead was finally taken to provide an opportunity for a real freeze. The first half ended in a deadlock, 13-all. Captain Cropp of the "Hilloppers" opened up the scoring in the second half with a neat goal from the floor, to be followed soon after by a shot from under the basket by Yeargin.

Mass.-Mrs. Mary Ellen Redmond, 88, former slave, died at her late residence, 979 Massachusetts avenue. January 2nd, from injuries received when she fell on stairs at her home five weeks ago. Mrs. Redmond, who was born June 16, 1840, at Harmony Village, Va. escaped from her master at the age of 17 and came to Baltimore, where she was fortunate to attend institutions. Several days afterwards she saw her former master across the street in search of her. For fear that she would be taken back to the old slave farm and be taken to the Slave law, her captors took her to Boston, where she remained. Shook Hands With John Brown On the day of the departure of the 54th Infantry, she was walking on the Boston Common and although a mere girl, she walked into the street with the hands of Col.

J. — The Tuxedo Tigers, following their 27 to 26 victory over Westchester Big Five, Wednesday night, swept on to a 31-26 victory over the Newark Elks, here Thursday night.

It was the accurate shooting of the East Orange team that ached but not their better team work. The Tigers outpassed and out-witted the Newarkers but simply couldn't locate the hole in the extended point with the score reading 18-11. Harry Clark, brother to the Morgan College star, "Pinky" Clark, found the tim for a field goal. And from there on they romped The whole Tuxedo team functioned as a unit: the shooting of the ball, the passing of the ball, Clark and Howard Arther was uncanny.

They only scored one field goal and a free throw during the game. Under the reins of Mars Hill, their coach, and J. Richard Lee, their manager, they will invade the cities of Washington and Colorado and Morgan Hill, a former Morgan all-round athletic star, has confidence that his team will conquer the South.

AT AFRO CLUB That there can be no successful drive to break the economic shackles from workers until racial and class isolation is removed from among themselves, William N. N. Jones, and the Workers' Interracial Forum, told that body Sunday evening. Mr. Jones, speaking on "The Consequences of Jewish and Negro Isolation in American Cities," reviewed the struggle these groups have had in various sections of the country and as that as labor, as the basic economic interests of any group followed class lines, there would be the natural class struggle for existence.

"The struggle for existence faces all workers, with the Negro it is intensified, in that he has first to fight the white worker's toil. Before he enter the struggle for a share of the available jobs."

MIRPHY, Jr. 7 In News In Make-up 1926-1927-1928 SAYS Mr. Gordon, editorial writer of "The Boston Post," in "The Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science," reviewing the colored press: "My evaluation of newspapers this year would retain The AFRO-AMERICAN at the head of the news list, for this journal is obviously superior to all its competitors as a newspaper." "The AFRO-AMERICAN is still the most attractively made up of all its competitors." MR. Gordon's choice is also the choice of more than 35,000 discriminating buyers of The Afro-American, who select it each week as the medium for giving them the best news, the most accurate news, the best written news and printed clearly, with an excellence of make up that is equalled by no other colored paper in the country. ONLY a paper that is edited and printed completely in its own plant by an all colored staff of nearly 40 workers, including editors, reporters, b o o k- keepers, typists, stenographers, advertising salesmen, circulation specialists and master craftsmen could hope to achieve such heights in journalism. IT is not surprising then that smart business men in every part of the country placed more than a million lines of advertising in The Afro-American last year, an increase of more than 100,000 lines over 1927, and nearly 250,000 lines over 1926. NOR is it to be wondered at when we state that the net paid circulation of The Afro-American for 1928 averaged more than 3,000 copies weekly over 1927. What is the Natural Result? The Afro-American commands itself to a steadily increasing and enthusiastic readership that has grown from 18,000 in 1922 to more than 35,000 in 1928. The Afro is First in a city of Firsts Mrs. Phillips, Jr., Entertained At Dinner Teenagers at a dinner party on last Sunday, of Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Shorter, the Young and Frank Phillips, of involvement.

Best Remedy for Obstinate Cough Made at Home You'll never know how quickly a stubborn cough or chest cold can be conquered, until you try this famous remedy because it gives more prompt, positive relief than anything else. It is no trouble at all to mix and costs but a trifle. Into a pint bottle, pour 2½ ounces of the sugar syrup or strained honey to make a full pint. This saves two-thirds of the money usually spent for cough medicine, and gives you a purer, better sugar syrup or strained honey to make good—children like it. You can actually feel its penetrating, soothing action on the inflamed chest, and loses the germ-laden phlegm, and at the same time, it is absorbed into the blood, where it acts directly on the bronchial tubes. This three-fold action makes the cough relief even in severe bronchial coughs and "flu" coughs. Pinex is a highly concentrated compound containing the active agent of creosote, in a refined, palatable form, and known as one of the greatest healing agents for severe coughs, chest cold and bronchial infection. Do not accept a substitute for Pinex. It is guaranteed to give prompt relief or money refunded. USE the RUN MENDER. Removes runs from the daintest host without the use of a special tool. The needle and thread leave. So simple a child can use. Positively guaranteed that runs will not leave. Address H. J. NICHOLSON, 215 N. 908 St. New York, NY 10016. For Agents.
