Sail Together to Eradicate Prejudice TELEPHONE: VAndike 9244 SS. MOUNT CLAY JOIN LOUIS HILL VOLUME 38 Sail T SS. MOUNT (By the Associated Negro Press) "The best answer to prejudice is action, not words," says Dr John Louis Hill, author and traveler, in explaining the cruise which he has agreed to conduct through the West Indies for the Aladdin Cruise Corporation, a Cleveland Company. Dr. Hill, a southern white man, is author of "When Black Meets White," a plea for racial co-operation that has won praise from scores of thinkers of both races. "We expect the cruise to accomplish three things," he adds. "The open invitation to all respectable men and women, regardless of race, is an open defiance to the propaganda of discrimination. Second, the contacts formed on this voyage between well disposed people of both races will open the eyes of both. Third, for a large part of the passengers it will be a new opportunity for the enjoyment of travel, observation, and study among varying people and in a country-rich Joe Pedrotti Announces Candidacy for Senator From The 29th Senatorial District 1. We had the pleasure of a visit from Assemblyman Joseph L. Pedrotti, who is now a candidate for Staff senator in the Twenty-ninth District, and the with historic incident. "Nothing broadens people like travel. It is more than an assertion of equality, it is an actual avenue of superiority, for the man who has traveled is a better man for having traveled. His thoughts can never again be compressed in the same narrow channels." The cruise, which lasts from January 15 to February 12, 1925, and touches eleven points of interest in the West Indies, is to be taken in the big United American liner Mount Clay. All distinctions of class are to be obliterated in the furnishing and management of the ship. All passengers will have the same deck privileges, eat the same food, enjoy the same games and attend the same nightly program of lectures and entertainments. Since the first announcement of the cruise, inquiries and reservations have been pouring in at a rate which promises to fill the ship months before the date of departure. A Chi Committee is soliciting the support of all voters in the 29th Senatorial district to give him a hearty support for the high office of Senator of the 29th Senatorial District. Mr. Pedrotti is a very striking type of a young American business man, having been in his early days an athletics, and was quite active in athletics at Grammar school and College where Mr. Pedrotti attended in the city of Los Angeles. Mr. Pedrotti is thirty-eight years of age and has been a very active member of the California State Legislature in the Sixty-fifth Assembly District since 1920, nd has been a resident of said District for thirty-eight years. Mr. Pedrotti has been identified with the introduction and support of many bills which pertained to the public in general and prison reform and for the expedition of justice and better living conditions for the poor of our community and among these bills of which the following are but a few. A bill for the use of convict labor on State highways and State roads, and provided in said bill that the pendants of the unfortunate prison inmates should receive a certain amount of compensation, while the inmates were working upon the highways. This bill became a law and is now a law. One of the latent factors of this bill is that the inmate who works upon the State highways is credited with two days for every day he works, thereby reducing the time of his actual service one-half; it is likewise dependent upon the good behavior and the reform shown by the inmates as to how long he may work upon the high-way. The compensation which is paid to the dependents, while working on the road, is provided in this bill in the sum of $2.50 per day. The Legislators of the State of California had cage group that includes William Randolph Cowan, Robert S. Abbott and other leaders has asked for the assignment of 100 accommodations. The Cleveland contingent will include Councilman Thomas Fleming and his wife, Dr. and Mrs. E. A. Bailey, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Slaughter and others. Assurance of participation has been received from New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Norfolk, Atlanta and many other centers. One of the first to compliment the enterprise was Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee, who says he will go unless deterred by conflicting appointments. Land trips through the Canal Zone and also to Caracas, Venezuela are given as part of the passage. Optional land pleasures are offered at Havana, Kingston, Trinidad, Martinique, Barbados, Virgin Islands and Bermuda. Correspondence in regard to the cruise should be addressed to Aladdin Cruise Corporation. Cleve- attempted for more than eighteen consecutive sessions of the State Legislature to enact and pass such a law and it reflects credit on the ability and sincerity of Mr. Pedrotti to finally succeed in causing such a law to be written upon the Statute Books' of the State of California. Mr. Pedrotti also is the author of a bill in 1921, which gave to the county of Los Angeles three Superior Court Judges, in order to make it possible to have more speedy hearings in legal matters and again in 1923, Mr. Pedrotti was the author of a bill which gave to the County of Los Angeles five more Superior Court Judges, which was needed in order to keepee with the wonderful growth of our County, and Mr. Pedrotti has also been instrumental in the preparation and introduction of many bills in the State Legislature durig his incumbency which has been beneficial to both the city and County of Los Angeles, and Mr. Pedrotti has been interested in the up-lifting of humanity in general and in the prison reforms which make life moreenable for the unfortunate people who offend their way to the penitentiary of this State and has rendered many valuable services to the families of the unfortunate inmates of these institutions and is now Chairman of the Committee of Prison Reforme of the egislature of the State of California. Mr. Pedrotil married a native daughter of Los Angeles, and has a very charming daughter, Elizabeth Pedrotil, who of the age of fourteen years, who graduates from the high school in Los Angeles during the month of June, 1924. Mr. Pedrotil is Vice president of the Rosabella Plumbing Company, a Los Angeles concern, and is also a member of many fraternal organizations: has been at all time a stunner Republican and has THE NEW YORK TIMES Reports from throughout the Eleventh Congressional District, reveal the fact that barring accidents, the amiable, efficient and popular official of San Diego County will surely be nominated as the next congressman from this district. The people of this district which comprises the counties of Imperial, Inyo, San Bernardino, Riverside, Orange, San Diego, have long known the most splendid record of Mr. Byers and long since known of the most splendid record of Mr. Byers ad the fact that, he will be truly the servant of all the people are only waiting for the opportunity to cast their votes for him as the Republican nominee at the primaries August 26th. They are firm in the belief that he will measure up to all the requirements which are due for a proper representation of this very important position. On all public propositions his stand is always for the people whom he serves and especially on the all absorbing Boulder Dam project. He stands four square for the dam. The only difference between Mr. Byers and Mr. Swing is the fact that Mr. Byers will be with the administration and consequently will be in a better position to accomplish things worthwhile for the district than the present incumbent, Congressman Swing, who has chosen to antagonize the administration. Finally the people want a representative in Congress who will represent all the people and who would spurn the allurements of private or public corporations. In the person of James E. Byers they have such a man and they will rally to his support from all sections of the district and put in Congress this intrenched, successful and courageous official. been identified with the Republican party ever since he has been old enough to know what the word "Republican" meant. Mr. Pedrotti is a self made man, and is in close touch with the needs of the people, and if elected will give to them, the very best service gained by a rich and varied service in the Assembly. His friends in both Assembly districts are working hard to give him the nomination on August 26th, which is equivalent to an election on the first Tuesday in November.

Upton, 1359 W. 37th St., in a suit filed in the Superior Court on last Monday against Mrs. Georgia Matthews, who resides only four doors from this number on the same street. All parties are well-known and prominent. Mrs. Upton is a notable figure in church circles; her husband a member of Trinity Baptist Church and Mrs. Matthews is the young widow of Mr. F. L. Matthews, former postal clerk and now deceased. The following is a copy of the action which was filed in the Superior Court by Mrs. Upton's attorney, Hugh E. Macbeth. "In the Superior Court of the State of California In and For the County of Los Angeles TENNIE L. UPTON, Plaintiff VS. GEORGIA MATTHEWS, Defendant No. 146003 Complaint For Alienation of Affections of Husband "Plaintiff for her cause of action complains and alleges as follows: I. "That plaintiff and defendant are and have for two years last past been residents of the County of Los Angeles, State of California. II. "That the plaintiff is now and for fourteen years last past has been the wife of Charles L. Upton. Further relating the case Mrs. Upton says the climax was reached on Sunday, May 5th, when she went to church and had hardly gotten there when she remembered she had left a roast in the stove cooking. She doubled right back to look after her roast, opened the door and discovered Mrs. Matthews and her husband in a compromising position. As a result of this episode Mrs. Upton says her husband packed up his things and left. She further says that he went to Chicago and wrote a most loving and endearing letter to Mrs. Matthews but by mistake (she supposes) enclosed the letter in an envelope and sent it to her (Mrs. Upton) and she further presumes that Mrs. Matthews received the letter intended for his wife. "That in or about the month of May 1924, while this plaintiff was living, co-habiting and being supported by her said husband, Charles L. Upton at No. 1359 West 37th street, Los Angeles, California, and was so living with him as his wedded wife and enjoying his affections, support, protection and respect, the defendant well knowing the said Charles L. Upton to be the husband of the plaintiff, wrongfully intending to injure the plaintiff and deprive her of her said husband's protection, society and support, wiltfully wickedly and maliciously gained the affections of said Charles L. Upton and induced him to have carnal intercourse with her, and sought to persuade him and entice him, and did persuade him and entice him to transfer his affection, support, protection, and respect from the plaintiff to the said Georgia Matthews, the defendant herein. IV. "That by reason of the premises the said Charles L. Upton has become estranged from the plaintiff, and his affections, and respect for the plaintiff have been destroyed and plaintiff has been and still is, wrongfully deprived by the defendant of the comfort, society, support and protection of her said husband and the happiness and benefits she otherwise would have received at his hands, and has suffered great distress of mind, body and estate to her damage in the sum of twenty-five thousand dollars. ($25,000.00) WHEREFORE, Plaintiff prays judgment against the defendant in the sum of Twenty-five Thousand Dollars ($25,000.00) plus the costs of Court sustained herein." Speaking to a reporter for the California Eagle Mrs. Upton said that she and her husband, Chas. L. Upton, had been married for 14 years and up to the time of the alleged clandestine meetings with Mrs. Matthews who is the mother of three children that the matrimonial voyage was pleasant indeed, but she averted that this woman gradually but surely brought about a condition which has alienated the affection of Mr. Upton entirely and completely. She further states that herself and husband own a car and this car was $2.00 THE YEAR judice T SIDE MATRON UL WIDOW FOR 00.00 and's Affection Alleged Side is all agog over the sensa- nie L. Upten, 1359 W. 37th St., court on last Monday against Mrs. only four doors from this num- and prominent. Mrs. Upton is ales; her husband a member of Matthews is the young widow postal clerk and young descent kept at the garage in the rear of Mrs. Matthews' home, and that his trips became very frequent and prolonged at the garage. In fact, she says, it became so noticeable that she warned both of them of the dire consequence in store if this feature was kept up. Further relating the case Mrs. Upton says the clitmax was reached on Sunday. May 5th, when she went to church and had hardly gotten there when she remembered she had left a roast in the stove cooking. She doubled right back to look after her roast, opened the door and discovered Mrs. Matthews and her husband in a compromising position. As a result of this episode Mrs. Upton says her husband packed up his things and left. She further says that he went to Chicago and wrote a most loving and endearing letter to Mrs. Matthews but by mistake (she supposes) enclosed the letter in an envelope and sent it to her (Mrs. Upton) and she further presumes that Mrs. Matthews received the letter intended for his wife. This incident on top of the others caused things to be wrought up to a high pitch indeed and on last Thursday night she sought out Mrs. Matthews and took her to task by attempting to beat her up and only the interference of Mr. Dardene, a neighbor, prevented what might have brought about a more serious aspect to the affair. At any rate the case is the topic of the neighborhood and the result of the trial will be watched with much interest. Interest Increases In Junior N.A.A.C.P. Work MEETING SUNDAY TO DRAW LARGE CROWDS Interest in the year's program of the Young People's Branch of the local N.A.A.C.P. is expected to rapidly increase as a result of the spring recess, according to a report made last night by the committee on publicity. The reason presented for this view was that most of the members of the local branch are high school and college students who are to be expected to take a larger interest in the work, inasmuch as the spring vacation allows more leisure for each member to competently execute the part given to him to accomplish. An official expression of the opon will perhaps be made in Sunday's meeting of the local Young People's Branch; at Independent Church, 18th and Paloma Streets, Sunday afternoon. The preceding meeting was well attended and Sunday's meeting is expected to draw large crowds. Lets only $75.00 high, dry and level. Wonderful pure well water.

Friday night, June 27th at Philharmonic dressed in all the spangles of ministrelsy the Elks are putting on a show that is a show. Directed by Buddy Brown and with the able assistance of the many famous actors in the cast, especially Ed. Tolliver the Elks will present a minstrel that is complete in every detail. Every principal in the Minstrel has made theatrical history with some well known organization of troupers. Look to your right and you will see the likeness of Lieut. Detective Littleton McDuff. Mack will lay aside his business or crook catching long enough to don the grease paint and even as interloctor for the Minstrel. This is not a new stunt for McDuff as he served his time as interloctor for Ferdon's Minstrels. In addition to being interloctor he doubled in brass, drove the baggage wagon to the station and led the band, he is also the band leader for the coming Elks show. The Elks going into this show on a big scale have four end men or comedians in the cast of forty. Ed Tolliver is probably the best known of those listed. Ed has served with several high class aggregations but is best known for his work with the Georgians. Bible Maxie of the Maxie brothers and one of the leading comedians also comes from the Georgias. Three Black Aces Added Alast minute announcement comes that Anderson brothers and Flying Ford have been added to the Minstrel. They are best known recently as the "Three Black Aces" and completed a very successful engagement at the Plantation Cafe. Thurston Briggs has had many offers to work in the last few months but this is the only engagement that he would accept. After the show is over you can make a bet that Thurston will be one of the greatest favorites. In going over the list we find many names of performers worthy of special mention some of who are, Charlie Wilson, Leroy Mims, Oscar Davis, Clarence Butler (Bumpsky), Ed Wilson, Edgar Williams. These are comedians. In the circle we have, Herman Jazz Higgs, Dr. Wright, B. Highbaugh, Jno. Buddy Williams, Andy Walthal, Louis Cole, E. Sloan and Richard Johnson. In the part will be any number of singles, doubles, monologues and other features. The closing act which is being worked on so carefully by Buddy Brown is expected to be one of the biggest hits of the entire show. All in all a large and very satisfied audience should file out of Philharmonic following the final curtain Friday night. Velma Wood Wina High Favor In Farewell Recital The farewell rectal given by Miss Velma Wood assisted by Mme. Mozelle Te Outley at the Metropolitan Baptist Church on last Monday evening was indeed a stellar event. No musician ever gained greater favor with her hearers than Miss Wood on this occasion. Her playing was a revelation, her touch and interpretation were marvelous. It was clearly and definitely manifested that this young woman is destined to make her mark in the music world. Mr. Louis Mitchell publicly gave praise to the wonderful ability of Miss Wood and spoke of her in the highest terms as a muescal gentius. The Starr Plane Firm furnished the Grand Piano for this recital complimentary to Miss Wood. JOINT RECITAL MAGNIFICENT SUCCESS The joint recital given by Luvena Harper Paterson pianist, accompanist and Marie Overstreet Jackson, soloist teacher of voice and their respective pupils at the Second Baptist Church on June 10th was a magnificent success and demonstrated more than any words written or spoken the ability of these talented musicians. Then pupils rendered a program of par excellence which would have been a high credit to any occasion, and was indeed a high credit to bth teachers for their ability to develop the talent of our youth.

"Aside' from Portland." says he "Los Angeles is the greatest city on the map". Of course Mr. Flowers was looking at the map ten years old. "I marvel at its growth, and especially the foothold the race has on business. Prosperity seems to be the expression on all of the faces I have met."

WHERE WILL YOU SPEND YOUR VACATION In our last issue we stated our intention of suggesting where one should spend their vacation and made the announcement that our first article would be on a trip to the Yosemite. If you have in the time and the facilities namely an automobile no better spot could be chosen for spending a vacation than in the Yosemite Valley. At the outset let me state as to accommodations. You are welcome to whatever is to be found in the line of eating and hotel accommodations. Just this period of the year when travel is heaviest it is advisable if you contemplate making this trip and wish to secure hotel accommodations that you write in advance for same as at present approximately 100 cars a day are entering the Valley. Last month 11,745 persons visited Yosemite of which 8550 entered by auto. In order that you might get the most out of it we would advise that you rough it taking a camp outfit. This affords you an advantage that is to be appreciated only by a visit to this wonderful place and too it reduces your expense to a minimum. An excellent paved highway over the Ridge Route via Fresno to the National Park entrance. The distance is approximately 280 miles, and can be covered in one day, the we would advise you to make the trip to Fresno one day and the next morning get an early start so you may enjoy and drink in the wonderful sight that are to greet you at the same time you can secure a camp site and from day to day over a period of a week or two travel from place to place. We venture to say if its your first visit you will, having learned the route, again steer your car in that direction, so fascinating is everything in this beautiful spot from atmosphere to scenery. CARE OF YOUR CAR By Joe Lane Just a word about unusual noises. One's car is like a person's physical system. A headache, a pain around the heart, or a feverish condition of the body indicates that something is wrong and if you believe in taking care of your health you will immedi- L. J Your auto has a way of letting you know that there is something wrong, some trouble, perhaps of a serious nature by expelling an unusual noise, generally slight and hardly audible at first but which if not investigated will develop into a loud disturbing racket in the form of a squeak, knock, or rattle, and if you are wise you will stop and investigate such at its first appearance. Such a course may save you a repair bill or maybe a trip to some hospital in which will figure an operation table, several doctors, and trained nurses to say nothing of the aftermath, the bill, when, if you had heeded the warning, an oil can, a monkey wrench, screw driver or hammer properly applied at its incipiency, would have saved you all the trouble you now find yourself in. S oremember peculiar and unusual noises emanating from your car should be taken as a danger signal and should call for inspection without delay. O. Lewis the famous tire surgeon, fell out with L. A.

SMITH: AN AMERICAN CAREER, a biography of the Governor by Dr. Henry Moskowitz. The romantic story of the East Side newsboy and truckman who rose to assemblblyman, senate leader, became New York's most popular Governor and a strong presidential possibility is told with engrossing detail by a man who has been his close friend since boyhood, and an ever strong admirer of him, although Dr. Moskowitz is practically a Republican-Progressive. The personal history of the beloved and picturesque figure is followed by an exhaustive study of his political career, authoritatively written from a close study of the records and the intimate personal knowledge of the author. Mr. Moskowitz himself has achieved eminence in political and social work. He has been President of the Municipal Civil Service Commission, headworker of the Madison House, and Associate Leader of the Society for Ethical Culture. JARRETT LAID TO REST John L.

His hearers were very attentive during his discourse despite the marm morning. The afternoon service under the auspices of young Women's Mission Society was a thorough success. The devotionals which were very inspiring, were led by two young ladies from Rev. Hines' Church, of Furlong Tract. The spiritual fervor ran high during this particular time. This was followed by short sermons by Rev. Rozier ando Hines, which were indeed wonderful in their entirety. The meeting was for the purpose of augmenting the building fund pledge of that organization. As a usual custom a donation is given the visiting pastors, but upon the proposal of such a gift to Rev. Rozies, he refused likewise Rev. Hines, who said that was their donation to the pledge. Thanks brother pastors.

GRADUATION The graduation exercises are over, and each one receiving a diploma is happy, yet the race is but begun. The commencement is just the first stepping stone of one's intellectual career. We regret however, the scarcity of graduates of our group in proportion. We wonder if our boys and girls are falling to avail themselves of the opportunity to advance. Some may think the line too tightly drawn to make any especial sacrifices for the achievement of greater things, but what about the future? We would urge the young folk to keep up their studies, for men and women who can qualify are in demand. A. M. E. CHURCH The pastor is back, the house was overcrowded all day Sunday and everybody is happy. He reports having a wonderful time, but asserts himself as being rather happy at being home once again.

NOVELS ESSAYS Andre Maurois Combbines Fiction With Biography In Writing Character Sketches Of The Author Of "The ARIEL THE LIFE OF SHELLEY By: ANDRE MAUROIS New York: D.

Andre Maurois presents us with Shelley in a new light. No longer does the genius who sang the victorious melodies of "Adonais" and chanted raptuous strains in his "Hymn to Intellectual Beauty"—who scaled the heights of poetic eloquence in the "Ceneci," "Alasator" and "The Cloud"—remain the figure of fantastic glory which writers like John Symonds made him. The incisive weapon of fiction, welded with all the vengeance of which Maurois is capable, has been applied, and the life of Percy Byshe Shelley is again before us, revealed in all the shameless nakedness of human weakness and failures of violent passions in conflict with ardent hopes of filial opposition hurled in defiance of parental tyranny. Were it not that the office of fiction serves largely to stimulate the imagination, we should be inclined to smite Maurois for an extravagant, and therefore, unjustifiable assault upon so unoffending and graceful a literary here; but "Ariels" is within the scope o fits own authority, and we lift our hats to its candid author for this novel treatment of his subject. Maurois trusts his readers' judgment, a kind of freedom which we are bound to appreciate. His imagination is unsparing, but it is nevertheless spiced with tempered jiggs. His conversations look like realities and smack of the tendency to make his subject all the more striking. Shelley's youthful life at Eton and his revolt against traditions are rendered with immense vividness, though the author gives us flavors of his ironical mood. His strenuous rmances with his cousin, Harriett Grove and Harriett Westbrook; his elopement and final marriage to the latter, his pathetic experience with his dearest friend, Jefferson Hogg; his exulsion from Oxford because of his refusal to answer to the authorship of the pamphlet on "The Magnificacy of Ashleigh's very trying difficulties with his father, both before and after his marriage" all these—are narrated with a singular play of the writings' agitation and with dramatic servor. Irony is the most characteristic of Maurois' making finds a new application. It is subtly evocative looking. And did it not appear to us that the author is a master of illusion and style, weakening no vengeance and visiting no punishment on the subject of his excellent endeavor, we should be inclined to call him to account for heaping damage on one now holding title as among the greatest—if not the greatest—of lyrical wits within the pages of English literature. Shelley's encounter with Robert Southey, that honest Christian gentleman who aspired to and eventually won the laureateship of England, is staged with vivid brevity. Shelley was an avowed aide; Southey saw in him, however, the spirit of the pantheist. Southey was conservative; Shelley was liberal—almost radical! Southey was a flatterer of George III; Shelley declared this to be unpardonable servility. Two irreconcilable spirits indeed! Godwin, now famed for his "Political Justie" was discovered. But Godwin for whom Shelley entertained the profoundest admiration, was at last broken and impoverished, and this at a time when the young poet was himself overwhelmed with marital woes. Nevertheless he was willing to help his famous teacher. His young wife, Harriett Westbrook, "wanting in any real brain-power; even when she had the air of being interested in ideas", had left him. Her escapades with Major Ryan were pronounced. The angel which he found in her at their first meeting and subsequent adventures was, by the usual womanly instinct, transformed into the proverbial feminine devil. The visibly "sweet disposition" had now turned sour, and Shelley, though not himself flawless, was forced to admit the error of mental inequality in marital relationship, but worst of all the more fatal error of a union where dull mentality was at first disguised by apparent intellectual interest. Now appointed and neglected, he fell a prey to the entrancing personality of Mary Godwin, the daughter of that rebellious outcast, Mary Wollstonecraft. The picture, though tragic in itself, is nevertheless, retouched with gripping interest by the author's pen. Maurois tells of Byron's methods for which he makes Shelley no admirer. It is another illustration of the poet's independence. Independent of the unprogressive and antiquated ideas of his father, Timothy Shelley; independent of the opinions of his family environments; independent of Oxford and its pedagogical bigotry; independent of a brainless, gooquish and rivalous woman—Percy Byshe Shelley was the veritable incarnation of intellectual riot and rebellion! The book is well done, in the human sense, because it is not free from flaws. In this we mean that even if Maurois had given us a greater Shelley because he had presented us Shelley's poetry—the real test by which posterity will gauge this admirable figure—he would have still left much undone in this pleasant vigorous and refreshing presentation of "Ariel—The Life of Shelley".

Yet, despite these Neither a treatise on Economics nor advice to the over-obese is "Surplus—, instead, this novel describes quite frankly and in a straight forward manner a modern phase of womanhood. If they be not cowards—fearing scorn of the all-powerful (male) masses, or shying at the idea of repudiating time-bound convictions regardind ambitions of woman, those who advocate modernism in Females will hail "Surplus" as a glorious triumph for the "cause." When a woman seeks independence and self-expression, it is either because she has not found "the man", or she is emotionally unfit for the role of wife and mother—Pooh Bah! and again: pooh bah! with business of sticking our fingers in ears. Not all women are particularly intrigued by the position of soup-maid or supplying the nation with populace at all costs, so they choose other jobs, as in the case of Sally Wraith. Yet, despite these "revolutionary" tendencies, the call for companionship is sufficiently strong to make them hate the future alone. Consequently, they either tolerate the association of a man or go to live with another independent woman. Such a combination—detached from the ordinary pursuits of womankind an sex-interest—is counted "surplus". Sally Wraith went to live with Averil, a young woman art student. Their days pass happily enough first in struggles in London and later in their own country cottage until the long dreamed of man makes his appearance for Averil and she deserts Sally. Meanwhile, during the course of the companionship of these two girls, Sally conceived a profound affection for Averil which could not be substituted even by the man who would marry her. This love of woman for woman: a thing as delicate as old lace and quite as difficult to handle justly, is perhaps the most outstanding compliment to the author who keeps her character always just beyond the point of lesbian inclinations, thereby scoring a decided victory for Sally's theoretical speculations on mental love. The following paragraph describes this girl's impression of her experience and may well act as a motif for the entire book: ```markdown ``` THE EAGLE'S LITERARY SUPPLEMENT "It came upon Sally with the force of a new truth that love, and not the reproductive instinct, is the greatest force in the world—the only human attribute that is indestructible by time, that is certain to survive time, if humanity itself survives. And it had nothing whatever to do with the question of sex. The flower may spring up in the cornfield or in a bare patch of earth—it is the same flowers as beautiful, as sweet scented. So love may exist alongside passion, or without it—it is the same power, greater than any instinct, greater than the atoms and rays and currents of which the scientists are buoy building them a new conception of the universe, immeasurably greater than the brains of those same scientists. And to limit the fullest manifestation of that power to beings between whom the physical tie of matehood or parenthood exists is like declaring that electricity can only be generated by one particular kind of dynamite." Whether or not we have hitherto believed that love is love, independent of sex attraction and may be just as sacred and exalted when participated in by man or women, parent or child—it is well worth considering now. It we deliberately choose to be the pawns of Dr. Freud's theory that sex is the basis of all human emotions, one word must needs be striken from our list, namely: Love. The business of mothers would be then no more than that of setting hens or brood mares. Sylvia Stevenson demonstrates not only courage but a great deal of insight into the essential nature of self assertive, idealistic womanhood in "Surplus", and while it is delightfully easy reading, at the same time it imbibes a philosophy of modern life which excites thought and serious consideration. sideration. FAY JACKSON. College of Liberal Arts University of Southern California I am glad to acknowledge receipt of an autographed copy of "An Anthology of the Literature of Social Protest" from Upton Sinclair. The book itself is a mass of simulating essays on the economic crisis with which America and Americans are today facing. Mr. Sinclair has carefully collected the essays and beautifully illustrated them with portraits in which the irony of the Capitalist world and the cruelties which it has invoked upon Labor may be strikingly felt. I note that with excellent judgment he has quoted from page 154 of Dr. DuBois' "The Souls of Black Folk". He has also used to productive advantage Karl Marx's "Capital", H. G. Wells' "The Future in America" and several of the poems of Mr. Louis Untmeyer. From this preliminary survey of the book, I would conjecture that he who reads it sympathetically and with alertness may not only know more about the defects of the Capitalist system, but may be, more than ever, impelled to devote at least a portion of his time in reading productions of this kind. Mr. Sinclair's place, after all, is to make people sit up and take notice. He says, "Here, I have shown you the intense suffering which your workers constantly undergo while their employers with abandon and no conscious effort on their part lie upon flowery beds of ease. Now, what are you going to do about it?" In a word, when it comes to talking about the American plutocracy, Upton Sinclair is like an extraordinary, ferocious bull in an excessively delicate and fragile China shop. The savage attack made upon the eccentric technique of Marcel Proust will somewhat cause readers of modern French literature to rampack their minds in an effort to ascertain who is our foremost French living man of letters. Indisputably, it is Andre Gide, Mem- The Klaus down in the 73rd Assembly District have decided to get together in what is known as an elimination program, so that the voters both-white and colored, will not be called upon to support but one candidate. For the purpose, a call sponsored by the East Side Republican Club has been issued. A meeting has been held, as a result thereof a mass meeting of the voters of the 73rd District has been called to meet at the Memorial Congregational Church, on East 34th street near Central avenue next Tuesday evening at 8:00 cclock p. m. All voters of the 73rd District are invited and urged to attend this meeting. As it is the purpose of this gathering to get together on ONE MAN and that man is to be the expressed choice of the mass meeting assembled. The runners up for honors in the 83rd are reported as follows: Sidney P. Dones, J. H. Shackefford, M. G. Broyles, J. D. Edmonds, E. C. Jennings, and dark horses liable to com up. Charlie Olivier returned yesterday from the National Republican Convention. He brought back his badge as assistant Sergeant of arms.

We understood that he is at his best in "Straight is the Gate" published by Mr. Alfred A. Knopf, Monsieur Gide's latest book which we have assigned to Miss Jackson for review. Gilbert Chesterton, who toys with paradoxes like a juggler plays with balls, has written "in his happiest manner"—to quote from the publisher's jacket—a biography of St. Francis of Assisi. The report came several months ago that Chesterton had turned away from the domain of controversial writing to that of smart biography. "Smart" is the world. There is little of what G. K. C. does that is not smart—in the contemptible sense. "If we are to have preachers," said Mr. H. G. Wells, "let them be at least as brilliant as Gilbert Chesterton", and once more the famous exponent of inverted logic tells us about a figure which has been too long connected up with legends and even fairy tales. James McGregor will review the book. More and more, JAMES W. McGREGOR is becoming increasingly a national figure in academic and college fraternity circles. He is second vice-president of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity and President of the local junior N. A. A. C. P., and has contributed regularly to "The Young Citizen" on which he is an editor. It is my unshakable belief that he who would aspire to marked leadership in the world of tomorrow must reckon with James W. McGregor. Herself in some measure the personification of the principal character in "Surplus", FAY JACKSON typifies the independent woman. Most of her work has received widespread comment and interest.

NOTICE JUNE BRIDES EMMA LUK SAYERS Jane is the merry month of bridges — abundance of floral decorations, by Ralph Porter, interior decorator, marked two prominent weddings of this week. The decorations formed a garden, interspersed with roses and potted plants with canopies of state and soft shaded candle lighting, which is a decidedly new feature this season. Each of these wedding were very stately and marked social features, as both brides and grooms are popular members of the younger set. SIMPSON-DONES NUPTIALS One of the most beautiful of the season's weddings, was that of Miss Theodolia Lella Simpson, who plighted her troth to Mr. Raymund T. Dones of this city, the ceremony taking place the 17th, inst, in the Episcopalian Church and Father Cleghorn officiating. The bride, who is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Simpson, of East Pico street, was attired in an exquisite creation of white Molly O'Crepe satin, with silver lace court train. The veil of tulle was held in place with orange blossoms and she carried a golden prayer book from which dung beribboned orange blossoms. Miss Irene Salisbury, wearing a rare gown of georgette crepe and lace and wearing a picture hat to match was maid of honor. Miss Louise Simpson, wearing canary georgette, assisted her sister as Bridesmaid with Berthella Glenn, in French blue georgette, Ollie Green, in orchid, georgette, and Ella Mae Hill of Riverside in blue georgette. They all carried wreath bouquets of sweet peas. Gussie Valley and Clara Bacon were the dainty little flower girls in ruffled frocks. They scattered rose petals in the star-lined path of the bride as she approached the altar. Robert La Mar acted as best man, and the ushers included Henry Brooks Arthur Prince, Sam Taylor and Mach Thornton. Master Sidney Preston Dones, Jr., nephew of the groom, assisted as the ring-bearer. The reception followed the bridal party in the Parish Hall and Mr. and Mrs. Dones, departed immediately for parts unknown. Just before the ceremony, Mrs. Bessie W. Dones played "O Promise Me" (Violin) and Malcolm H. Patton, Jr., sang "I Love You Truly." BEAVERS-LONG NUPTIALS The other bride of this week was Miss Elmyra Beavers, charming daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Beavers. Exactly at 8 o'clock of the 18th inst, she plighted her troth to Mr Ed. Long, In the Independent Church, Rev. N. P. Greggs, officiating. Preceding the ceremony, Prof. Thomas Johnson sang "At Dawning" and "O Promise Me;" there was a violin solo "Love Sends a Little Gift of Roses" and "I Love You Truly" by Miss Louise Beavers, cousin of the bride. The bride wore an elaborate imported gown of white georgette, embroidered in pearls and silver beads, with long, full bodice. The veil of duchess lace and tulle was caught to the head in Spanish cap style and orange blossoms held it in place. The bridal bouquet was of roses, gardenas and lilies of the valley. Mrs. Mildred Washington Youngge, assisted at Matron of honor and Miss Helen Beavers, sister of the bride as maid of honor. The other attendants attractively gowned in delicate shaded gowns and picture hats to match carry-muffs of summer fur and sweet peas, were the Misses Fostena Scott, Helen Oliver, Thelma Flory, Ruth Herbert. The flower girls were Arizona Herbert and Meloni Temple and the train bearers were Harriet Rose Jackson and Ollivet. Fields. Little Prince Beavers, was a very dignified ring bearer and Melba Jackson assisted as cupid, while Horace Clark, Jr., was the Page. Mr. Luther T. Taylor was best man. The reception followed the ceremony in the Assembly Hall of the Church. WEDDING BELLS A smart wedding of the month was that of Miss Alice Juanita Walker, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins to Lawrence W. Patterson, which took place Sunday, June 1th at the home of the bride's mother, 1224 East 59th St. The Rev. Thos. L. Griffith, pastor of the Second Baptist Church was the officiating clergyman. The bride wore a gown of white georgette trimmed with french beads and rhinestones. She carried white bride's roses and lilies of the valley. Miss Lela Johnson attended the bride as Maid of Honor.

SAVINGS TALK NO. 2--- "Co-operative banking" more clearly describes to the public generally, the plan and purpose of the building and loan idea, than any two words. All people understand the thought you wish to convey, when you say "banking." By saying "co-operative banking" you have in two words the most expressive and suggestive term. The value of these associations is so well understood, and the benefits which they confer are so well-known, that the laws of every State favor and encourage their organization. In California, they are under State supervision and inspection and wherever they operate, they have done marvels of good in teaching habits of thrift, which stimulates and increases the volume of business in every line.

FRESNO Our immense success was the spectacular Carnival given all of last week by the ladies of the Francis Harper Club on their grounds at E and Amador streets. The churches and the social and fraternal orders were well represented with booths, and every night found the grounds filled to capacity. The dominant feature of the Carnival was the musical comedy produced by the young ladies of the Art and Industrial Club under the able direction of that veteran entertainer John R. Davis. Two performances were given each evening to capacity houses with a change of program the end of the week. The entire personnel of the cast was good. Miss Dorothy Berry; scored a big hit singing "You've Got to See Daddy Every Night," and Mrs. William A. Bigby, Jr. was exceptionally god singing "Mama Loves Papa." Mr. Davis scored a hit every time he appeared on the scene. Miss Rose Hannibal was in charge of the music. Others in the cast were Mrs. Eugene Morris, Misses Sally Britton, Billie Dixon, Helen Berry. Ruth Hannibal and Alma Dixon. The Plantation scene given the last of the week proved a riot of comedy. The men who acted as patrons, of the affair were Granville Berry, William Hemmitt, Benjamin Chance, William A. Bigby, Jr. and Eugene J. Morris. Brilliant and elaborate in every detail was the dinner dance given by Mrs. Virginia Watkins last Thursday evening in honor of the graduating of her son Ben Watkins from High School. The affair had its setting in the luxurious dwelling of her daughter, Mrs. Henry Sims and was enjoyed by half a hundred of the younger set and the younger married conti- agent. Hr. Watkins will go to Maharas College to finish his education and will take up the study of dentistry.

GOVERNOR RICHARDSON APPOINTS SOME MORE Governor Friend Richardson made several more appointments during the past week, but in no manner has he indicated any intention of recognizing the vote which was the deciding factor in placing him in his present position.

Harlan of the Bureau of Cereal investigations, returned from what is said to have been one of the most extensive expeditions ever undertaken by the Department of Agriculture, which included a fifty-nine day journey over the plateau of Abyssinia. The purpose of the visit it is related, was to secure primitive specimens of wheat and barley in the very land whence these gains originated. The learned Prof. avvers that the Abyssinians are black people, but that they are not Negroes, except in color. That they are of Semitic stock which entered this country in the forgotten period. The only surprising part of the Professors' statement that we can discern, is the fact that Abyssinia was not found outside of the continent of Africa. Some Colored people work exercise common sense and as members of our group. Along brother, have no fear, for the A a deal more of you and hold yo demonstrate that your ambition play the same part of all other avenues of business. Some Colored people worry about whether they should exercise common sense and as far as possible patronize the members of our group. Along this line of reasoning, dear brother, have no fear, for the American white man will think a deal more of you and hold you in a higher esteem when you demonstrate that your ambition is to build up industries and to play the same part of all other citizens along all of the various avenues of business. In this situation of modern shifting of scenes both in and of little wonder that we oftimes "What's goig on?"

Wheeler and Walsh were the investigation business in the accomplished by exposing a few low level to which the investi journment of Congress it was a and a little handful of legislature measures to relieve the people people want to know—"What's EVERYBODY SHOULD RALLY In this situation of modern day effort with the constant shifting of scenes both in and out of the body politic, there is little wonder that we oftimes hear the exclamation query, "What's goig on?" The changes are so rapid and swift that its hard to even hazard a guess as to what's going on. However, just what is taking place in the political realm, overshadows everything else at this moment and it is well to keep in touch with all phases of public questions and of men, for the people are the ones who must be responsible for the future of any country. We must certainly join in with the demand for a congress which will do something besides investigating and attempting to crucify somebody for either personal or political reasons. Try the crooks, put them in jail where they belong; but let our government go on in the even tenor of its way for good. Bloes may be all right in their place; but that place is certainly not in the halls of Congress and the American people at the polls in November should vote in a regularly constituted majority of some party which will be responsible to the people for its acts. Wheeler and Walsh were both gallery players and ran the investigation business in the ground. The little good they accomplished by exposing a few crooks was nullified by the low level to which the investigation fell and before the adjournment of Congress it was a joke. With all of this side play and a little handful of legislators blocking the passage of measures to relieve the people; its a small wonder that the people want to know "What's going on" OF THE Y. M.

The acquisition of a class A Y, M, C, A to Los Angeles means that for the West and the opportunity presented is one for which every citizen should enlist. It is not a question whether you can give as much as somebody else will give, but it is simply a question of giving what your convenience dictates that you should give.

The promiscuous rounds of the Chinese lottery sharks who go from door to door selling Chinese lottery tickets is noticeable to even the unwary, and we fail to see just why the police cannot see as well as others, especially so as they make their living by seeing what's going on. Now we are not charging anybody with anything; but this lottery business is a menace and should be stamped out root and branch. Certain it is that the peddlers and pay-off joint can be located if the police will but get busy on the job. Another menace and serious one at that, is the range and latitude which prevails for the alley women, who lure the unsophisticated into alleyways and dark corners and rob them. They are so brazen that they are operating all up and down Central Avenue, and pull their rough stuff with impunity. We are also told that this situation could not exist without some sort of understanding and we most certainly shall seek deeper into this angle, and see if we can see what's the reason these conditions obtain. Those persons of Negro blood, young and old, too lazy, "smart" or ignorant to sense, take part in, or concern themselves in anyway with th eproblems of their race, often take a sort of pride in pointing out those who do so as silly and sentimental. There is a growing number of Negroes which seems disposed to dive in and get theirs, individually, let the race fare as it may. No other people has progressed far in such a spirit. The Jewish race, despite persecutions that equal and excel, in many respects, those of the American Negro, is in fact the chosen people, numbering persons of Jewish blood in the foremost walks of life. Thus there is a lesson for Negroes in the following editorial written by the Editor of the Jewish Courier, Dr. S. M. Melamed, concerning the cause of criminal expression in two Jewish youths, Nathan Leopold, Jr., and Richard Loeb, sons of millionaires, precqcious and pampered, who recently startled America with the confession of guilt in connection with the murder and kidnapping of a Jewish boy of wealthy parents, Robert Franks. Dr. Melamed writes as follows: Two Jewish boys, sons of rich parents, have confessed they murdeed the fourteen year old Jewish boy, Robert Franks. We need not waste a word in this frightful tragedy in so far as it concerns all three Jewish families. But the tragedy affects not only individuals, but it concerns the Jewish whole, and this tragedy is a still deeper one. It is the tragedy of a great portion of the Jewish people, that has lost the Jewish way of living, which has forgotten Jewish traditions, which has forgotten the interests of the Jewish people, and lives in this great world without ideals, without inspiration, and without a fine outlook towards the future. Jewish Training Scouted ests of these two boys had given him, if the boys had borne on their ubility, if they had interested them, if their hearts had bled for consciously Jewish with Jew not have devoted their entire ti ' and would not have had the ys knew nothing of Judaism: Jum : they know not that there is a Jewish people with its sufferings very fine, but their hearts are very inclination toward evil' and If the parents of these two boys had given the children a Jewish education if the boys had borne on their shoulders individual responsibility, if they had interested themselves in Jewish problems, if their hearts had bled for their people, if they had been consciously Jewish with Jewish souls, they would certainly not have devoted their entire time to "pleasure and good times", and would not have had the possibilities of going wrong. But both boys knew nothing of Judaism: Judaism is not a problem for them: they know not that there is such a thing in the world as a Jewish people with its sufferings and problems. Their minds are very fine, but their hearts are empty. Their hearts follow every inclination toward evil and then the persons go wrong. Example of Moral Anarchy You can't convince me that if these two capable Jewish boys had interested themselves in Jewish problems in the Diaspora and in Palestine, that they would have surrendered themselves to wild and unnatural passions. A rich man without ideals and without responsibility in life is always dangerous so society, and the two sons of the Jewish millionaires, who grew up without any ideale in life-moral "do nothings", are only a sad example of a life of moral anarchy. I always feared for the rich Jews who had no Jewish ideals. convince me that if these two twisted themselves in Jewish problem stine, that they would have surm and unnatural passions. A rich but responsibility in life is always two sons of the Jewish millionale ideale in life-moral "do nothing a life of moral anarchy. I alw no had no Jewish ideals. is that these two Jewish boys w Judaism, and they are not Jeepead had no moral control over emites will not fail to remind u will hold us responsible for the c had no moral, religious, or so The truth is that these two Jewish boys were not under the influence of Judaism, and they are not Jewish products, and the Jewish people had no moral control over them. Nevertheless the anti-emites will not fail to remind us that they the Jews and they will hold us responsible for the crime of two individuals who had no moral, religious, or social connection with us. TRAGEDY OF IT ALL punishment of a people which control over the individual, but sins of the individual. Chicago, but in many other cities of thousands of rich Jews w This is the punishment of a people which lives in dispersion. It has no control over the individual, but is held responsible for all the sins of the individual. Not only in Chicago, but in many other cities in America, there are hundreds of thousands of rich Jews who don't know what to do with their money, and who let their children grow up without any feeling of Jewish responsibility. Not only have we nothing from such Jews, but we always have to suffer on their account; for we are continually held responsible for their evil deeds or for the evil deeds of their children. This is the Jewish tragedy involved in the Franks case. FREEDOM OF SPEECH The Supreme Court's decision in dismissing the charge brought before the people against twelve Socialist party members for distributing anti-draft literature in June, 1917, is an encouraging manifestation that we are slowly but gradually shaking off the war psychology imposed upon us during the dreadful years 1916-18. It was held that the circulation of this literature did not constitute "a conspiracy to defraud the United States"; it was rather a frank expression against entering the war, and we who now watch the efforts of devout Christians and conform pacifists to put an end to war cannot but feel that the circulation of this literature was not in any wise calculated to produce pernicious results. It is the constitutional right of every citizen of the United States to freely and without restraint express his opinions, so long as those opinions are the result of his thinking and not of any harmful or foreign influence; and if we do not observe in our court proceedings, our elations with men on the street and in public meetings this sacred right, then our constitution is no longer a livinig organism emanating liberty and security, but a mere scrap of paper over which some of our best minds have worked and thought (in vain). It is to be regretted that because a man happens to belong to the Socialist party he is constantly watched and suspected. The root of this mistake is the fact that so many who know so little about it are always bewailing, assailing and denouncing it as "revolutionary"; when, as a matter of fact, it is simply a progressive movement calculated to so regulate the wages of the laborer and his employer that no one will either be very rich or poor To lift this suspicion, members of the Socialist party must resort to the methods used by the American Civil Liberties Union and flood the market with a kind of harmless propaganda which will show that the aims sponsored by them are utterly above reproach. It is often believed, and not without apparently sound reason, that the more one knows about a thing the more one sympathizes with it, becomes less hostile to it. con- aders and tolerates it with a kind of overflowing generously. Better acquaintance with the aims of Socialism may well render it tolerable—if not acceptable with certain reservations by the majority of thoughtful and intelligent men and women. R. P. EDWARDS Negroes find themselves peculiarly placed in the delicate situation now involving America and Japan. They have, through the Congress which legally represents them, jim-crowed the Japanese, told the Japanese who can ride in American trains, go to American theatres and eat in American restaurants without fear of discrimination, that they are to be by law hereafter, persona non grata in this land of the free. Of course, the Negro in his heart has done no such thing. He can not but view with alarm arbitrary discrimination against any people by the constituted authorities of his country. No ood love for the Japanese colors his belief in the injustice of such steps. He gravely notes how the Japanese are peremptorilp dealt with and finds suspicion for whatever fear he might have in the decision of a high court in the District of Columbia legalizing the activities of white citizens who have combined to keep Negroes, citizens, too, from buying property in certain districts. The suspicion grows that the American white man is going to intolerant when pressed, that his actions will not be tinctured with sentiments of justice and fair play when an issue arises as to what he does not like or does not want and a weaker or different people. Chandler, Owen, a Negro, saves exclude the Japanese and all others, too. That attitude is not general among Negroes. The California Eagle urges that "while we played no part nor did we ask for exclusion for anybody, it is here, also the alien land law along with it". There is now the chance for the Negro to seize the benefits which accrued to the Japanese in California. The Kansas City Call directs attention to the spirit of the Japanese Christians who are losing faith in the brand of Christianity brought to them by Americans and losing hope for a better day which the Call believes would have been hastened had not Congress offered the Japanese this "gratuitous insult of race proscription", and the Norfolk Journal and Guide suggests the possibility of war by virtue of a congress of "political jingoes, gunning for votes to re-elect them", a war which America does not want. The Negro press, we believe, should actively express itself in this matter. With it largely rests now the better ideals of America. Even the American jingoes admit the possibility of Japan hurting us in the Pacific in the event of war, but do not see how other white nations, notably England, can let the yellow people do it. The Negro press should at this time do all that it can to keep its country clear of a danger is encounter and to put over to white Americans, the jingoes, the high principles which have made a big America possible. We are good Americans and this is an opportunity to prove it. JUST ARRIVED FROM EGYPT, AFRICA DR. A. É. SOLIMAN Who spent several years studying in the various European institutions, graduating with honors from the best German colleges of medicine, came as a guest to our city a short time ago. The doctor, in revealing the secret of longevity among our forefathers, stated that the reason why our ancestors enjoyed a long life was because they solely adopted as a remedy for their ailments the natural herbs and roots which grew wild on their, native land. They were thus capable of constructing within their bodies strong systems, healthy organs and powerful constitutions, which enabled them to build a civilization unsurpassed yet by any white race on earth, a doctor through his extensive travels. After scrutinizing for such vegetation was possible to formulate a remedy composed of the most useful roots and herbs, that never been employed by any doctor or chemist. He composed a Blood Tonic known as "King Tut," used for heart disease, kidney trouble, lumbago, pains in the back, acute indigestion, nervousness and general weakness which gave very satisfactory results. We urge you to take advantage of his short stay among us, get acquainted with, tell him all your troubles. Everybody is welcome. DR. A. E. SOLIMAN 2804 Central Uhumbolt 8423-W PORO IDEA MARCHES TO CHICAGO Chicago, Ill. June 17—(By the Associated Negro Press)—Mr. and Mrs. Aaron Malone, founder and president respectively of Poro College, St. Louis, Mo., and the recent donors of the largest charity $25,000 given to the St. Louis Y.M.C.A. ever made by Negroes, have brought to this city their idea of having Poro workers aid worthy causes in the cities in which they are located. The method in St. Louis has been to have the workers at the college give plays and other entertainments, the proceeds of which were given to needy institutions and individuals. The first such program ni Chicago was given Tuesday night at the Pilgrim Baptist church temple, the Rev. S. E. J. Watson, pastor for the bentfit of the temple. And under the direction of Mrs. Malone. Poro workers filled the fine listed program which, besides musical numbers, included an orchestra. The occasion of the Far West taken by Mr. and Mrs. Malone on the occasion of a recent visit to points near and beyond the Rockies. A college similar to the one of St. Louis has been opened in this city at 4411 Grand Boulevard. THE LOS ANGELES FORUM By H. A.

Don't forget the date Tuesday evening, June 24, 1924. Under the supervision of the Los Angeles Baptist Ministers Union and approved by the Western Baptist Association there will be held at the Tabernacle Baptist Church, June 22, 1924, a mass meeting for the benefit of Rev. F. H. Davis to assist in sending himself and family to their home in Texas. An elaborate program is being arranged and all pastors of Los Angeles City and County are requested to be present. The pastors are expected to make short addresses in his behalf. Rev. W. H. Dickerson will be the main speaker. Rev. Davis needs no introduction to Los Angeles for he has pastored some of our best churches.

The excellent playing of the Giants surely surprised the fans and even Lonnie Goodwin the manager was smiling more broadly after the game than is the usual custom. Carroll and Goodwin were worried about players. After the game they found they had plenty of talent. Jay Johnson was a real find. Johnson had everything, a fast ball and sharp breaking curves. He allowed but four hits during his seven inning stay on the mound. His three hits including two, 2 baggers, were instrumental in the twelve runs scored by the Giants. --- As mentioned above the players were all to the mustard. Hill playing left field was in the difficult lead off position. He fielded his position nicely and showed a world of speed on the bases. Jackson. "Pepper" Jackson, held down first base in a very acceptable manner. Jackson was the life of the infield and his constant chatter helped keep the boys on their toes. Cade was drafted from the Battleship California, and if Lonnie can keep him he has a very good centerfielder who hits the ball on the nose. Killingsworth played short and nothing got by him. He will make a very valuable player for the Giants. Since the arrival of Wallace the regular shortstop, Killingworth will probably be shifted to third base, his regular position. Paul Wilson can then go into the outfield. The locals, Fagan, Wilson, Butcher and Ralph Kyle have never worked together better than they did Sunday. Pawne Jackson threw the eighth and ninth innings. He snuffed out the Merchants on three pitched balls in the eighth, but lost his stuff in the ninth. The Harborites scored seven runs before the side culd be retired. Jackson is a good pitcher tho and will no doubt show to a better advantage when he starts again. The Game Play By Play FIRST INNING—San Pedro—G. Hickman struck out. Murdock struck out.

At 10:30 a. m. Referee William Mellis Watson defended the, semi final match in men's singles of the May 30th California State Open Championship Tournament to the Coast Champion, Wendell Gladden, because his opponent, wee Phillipe Davis failed to appear. Broyles State Champ Broyles and Gladden attacked each other vigorously from the first and did little pingponging throughout, both seemingly determined to become a decisive victor if possible slashing and driving with a speed and swiftness not even attempted on May 30. The first and second games were garnered by Broyles, points 5x3, 4x0. Then Wendell speeded up and snatched a sizzling love game. Broyles did not like this and duplicated in the next. Wendell braced with a 4x1 followed by a 4x2 victory. Broyles took the next 4x2. Gladden grabbed another love game and Roscoe again followed suit. In the final of the first set Gladden came from behind on Broyles' service and duced the game but on his next service and a sharp rally Rosco won the set 6x4. The next pair of sets were much the same with neither man letting up for a second but Broyles displaying a stiffer service, drive and chop than did Gladden which won for him the beautiful Dr. A. C. Garrot Trophy which with the one won by Juliaella Harris May 20, will be presented to the winners at a public affair to be arranged for in a few days. Who Will Be Coast Champ? At that it looks like Gladden is second best among us since Balinger Kemp declares he is through, and as Broyles is not a member of any club in the Federation and indicated Sunday that he did not intend to join any in order to enter the Annual Pacific Coast.

Josephine Hall-Jones Referee Handicapped Wills In Last Bout Referee Handicapped Wills In Last Bout ROB WILLS OF CREDIT FOR HARD VICTORY Ney York City, June 17.—(By the Associated Negro Press)—Although Harry Wills, wow that talked of and oft postponed bout with Bartley Madden at the Queensboro Stadium Monday night, June 4th, much of his victory is being robbed of its glory through prejudice and that alone. Eyewitnesses of the fight sitting at the ringside say that Eddie Purdy, the white referee needlessly, interfered with Harry so often that Wills became badly confused. To many, it appeared that Wills might be "under orders" not to knock his man out. To the majority, however, it was plain that Wills was doing his best to finish the white man in as short order as possible. That he did not put Madden to sleep should not cause the cry of derision which white sport writers have let loose regarding Harry's ability. It is well known that the man selected for Wills' entertainment after a long lay-off in the ring in a tough bird, as tough as they come and one who has never been knocked out. He was badly beaten in his fight with Wills, so badly that we predict Brother Bart will want to rest up for several days recuperating. Tom Gibbons staid the limit with Jack Dempsey last summer and the next day looke as though he had never been in a fight with the world's chomplon heavy-weight. The game now may be to keep Wills from real money fight with Firpo and then later with Dempsey as had been proposed by Tex Rickard. We don't think it will work regardless of what the wise ones among the other race think, it is our opinion that Wills can take the measure of both the South American, Firpo, and the champion. Jack Dempsey. The crowd at Monday's fight was a typical New York crowd, ready to boo at the first opportunity an the first person possible. Almost to a man, the crowd expected to see Wills knock out his man at least by the sixth round. When he had not done that, Harry came in for some boos and these seem to nettle him greatly. While not in one single round did Madden have an advantage on Harry, yet it appeared that Wills was some what afraid of his right mit and preferred to use his left. Some at the ringside were of the opinion that a more judicious use of that hefty right might have terminated the fight a bit abruptly. Mixed Doubles 1. R. Garrott & J. Harris 2. E. Myers & B.

The baseball bundle is the biggest one in the washing and hanging in it on the line we find that the knockers dirty smirches are not so much in evidence this week. If you don't get what I mean I shall try to make my jargon a bit plainer, another rinsing as it were. The arrival of new players and the excellent game put up by the Giants Sunday has changed the anvil chorus into an "I told you so gang of boosters". Their favorite expression now is, "I told you they were coming", and "Those boys sure can play ball". The crowd wasn't what it should have been last Sunday, but it will improve. A baseball fan cannot stay away from a beautiful plant like the Goodyear Park with a team like the Carroll Giants playing. Another bundle from Kid Booker, the veteran boxer in Bakersfield. Booker with that fighting heart of his is making a regular trip around the hick circuit of small towns around Bakersfield and winning regularly. Booker knows how to keep busy and knows the value of publicity. He will send a little bundle in next week and we will wash it out and hang it on the line for your observation.
