Alleging that he was threatened with a huge knife in the hands of Yoamiawnth Daily, Rev. W. R. Hardy, well known Baptist minister and pastor of the Second Baptist Church of Long Beach, on last Saturday night shot his alleged assailant three times with an automatic pistol. As a result the Reverend Hardy is locked up awaiting the result of the shots and Daily is in the hospital on the way to recovery, so it is said.
The whole situation, according to information gathered by the Eagle reporter hinges on a quarrel between Daily and Mrs. Sarah Robinson, a member of Rev. Hardy's church. Hardy bears an excellent reputation and the best people of the community of both races are clearly in sympathy with him. Among prominent members of his church are Rev. F. W. Williams, Mrs. Brooks, Mr. Edwards, Bonners, et al.
Dean Kelley Miller
Enthuses Appreciative Audience
Dean Kelly Miller pleased to the utmost the goodly number which turned out to hear his lecture at the 1st A. M. E. Church on last Monday evening. The lecture was given under the auspices of one of the church societies and no doubt the attendance would have been great by far only for the lack of advertising. It was full of food for thought and the product of a master mind gained by years of experience as one of America's greatest and formost educators. While here Prof. Miller was the guest of Dr. W. B. Miller, 1466 Griffith avenue.
Baumann's Drug Store
Captures Burglar
A burglar in the act of entering Albert Baumann's store No. 1, 9th and Central Avenue, was baffled on last Monday night, he proved to be a former employee of the firm and now perhaps, it will be revealed as to the source of the many burglaries which have been staged at this place. The police deserve great credit for their prompt service.
Son of Author of "Out of the Past' Receives Fellowship
Floyd C. Covington, son of Mrs. Lillian J. Craw, author and director of "Out of the Past" received a fellowship from the National Urban League giving him a year's study at the University of Pittsburgh. Mr. Covington received the following notice from the Urban League:
"My dear Mr. Covington: The Executive Board of the National Urban League has selected you as one of the Urban League "Fallows" for this school year 1927-J8 and assigned you to the University of Pittsburgh for graduate study in preparation for work in the field of social service.
Floyd graduated from Washburn College, Topeka, Kansas in this summer's class with the distinction of being the first Negro student to graduate from that college with double honors in the entire history of the college. He received history in scholarships for his four years' college and in his major and minor field, viz., sociology and economics.
Floyd will return to Topeka with his mother in September where he will make preparations for his Pittsburgh trip.
RANDOLPH CASE DISMISSED; TESTIFIES AS STATE WITNESS
THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN IS SIGNING A PROMISE TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
(Continued from Thursday)
Mrs. Clara Clarka, in finishing her testimony on Thursday afternoon, said that she was standing at the table when Randolph raised his gun and shot. She said that she saw Randolph shoot towards the bedroom where her brother was killed. When Sheffield started shooting, she was standing between the dining room table and the fireplace. She continued by saying that Randolph shot into the bedroom, then walked to the front room, where he was shot by Sheffield. After cross examining, she was dismissed.
The next witness called was Miss Catalina Scott, or, 1018 E. 21st St. She was with the Misses Coates and Mr. Curtis when they came to visit Mrs. Harris. She said that after visiting for a few minutes, they decided to go. when Mr. Dickson came in. When
The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text. It appears to be a grayscale photograph with a blurred background.
Frank Handelph; Atty. T. B. Grant asked by the attorney to tell the story in her own words, she said:
"After Mr. Dickson came in, I was standing by the front door, which has a glass window in it. I heard someone come up the porch. Hailing the shade because they did not knock or ring the bell, I told Mr. Harris that someone was at her front door. Then Mrs. Harris went and opened the door and let the men in. (The door was NOT broken in by the officers as had been previously testified). Mr. Sheffield went into the kitchen and Mr. Randolph stayed in the front with us. I was standing by the piano. Pretty soon, Mrs. Harris went over to the dining room window to talk to someone on the outside, and Randolph, seeing her, whistled for Sheffield. Then Sheffield came in shooting. All during the shooting, I stood by the piano until Sheffield asked me for the number of the house. I went on the outside, and found out, then came back and told him.
She testified that she did not see Sheffield step on the road of Mrs. Paulkner, as she went back into the front room and stayed until the ambulance came, then she went home.
Mr. Jack Allen, 1858 B 51st St was then called. He is the son-in-law of Mr. and Mrs. Paulkner and went to the house to see his children that they were keeping for him. When he arrived at the house he found everything in confusion. Sheffield was telephoning, and Randolph standing in the dining room. Randolph asked him to telephone for the ambulance, which he did.
Q. "Then what did you do?"
A. "I looked in the bedroom and saw the body of my brother-in-law, I covered him with his hatphe, then came out of the bedroom."
Q. "Did you see anyone in the front room?"
A. "Yes, my sister-in-law, Mrs. Paulknew."
Q. "Your sister-in-law, Mrs. Paulknew? Are you positive of that?"
THE DEATH OF THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN
; Lower. M. B. Bheffield; Atty. Theo. P. White; Courtesy L. A. Eve. Express
A. "Yes, I am positive that it was field, as made at the coronor's in my sister-in-law, Mrs. Paulkner."
Q. "Add where did you see her?"
Q. (As asked at the Coronor's inquest): "How did you happen to go to piano. She was hysterical."
Q. "What did you do?"
A. "Because I was told that boot-
A. "I took her several places trying to find my wife, or someone to leave her with as she was very hysterical. I finally found my wife, we stayed at the house a while, then I took my slater-in-law back to her home."
At this juncture it was time for adjournment, and the court was adjourned to open in session Monday, July 11th.
CHANGES TESTIMONY
Upon the opening of court Monday, Mr. Jack Allen was called again to take the witness stand.
Q. "Have you any chances to make in the testimony which you made last Friday?"
A. I have."
Q. "What is it you want to change?"
A. "Friday, being excited, I testified that I saw my sister-in-law, Mrs. Pauline, in the front yard. I did not see her in the front yard. I saw her outside on the sidewalk."
Q. "What made you change your testimony?"
A. "Because I did not see her in the house, and when I went home and was thinking over what I said, I realized that I had not told the truth."
Q. "Have you talked with anyone about the case or been in the district District Attorney's office?"
A. No. I haven't. I was just exiting Friday and made the wrong statement.
Were asked if he had any other chances to make in his testimony of Friday, to said that he did not have any.
Mr. Burton asked another
Q. (As asked at the Coronor's inquest): "How did you happen to go to this number?"
A. "Because I was told that boot-legging was going on there."
Q. "Who accompanied you?"
A. "Randolph, only."
Sheffield continued his testimony by saying that he and Randolph went by the side of the house and looked in the window of the dining room and saw some people sitting down drinking. Then they went to the door and were admitted by Mrs. Harris.
Q. "Then what did you do?"
A. "I went to the kitchen and started looking for liquor. While, there, Mrs. Paulkner came to the door and asked what was the matter. I told her that I was an officer and was making a raid. I continued to look and heard Randolph call. I looked through the swinging door and saw Paulkner's arm out of the bedroom door shooting at Randolph. Randolph shot at the arm, striking him near the right eye.
Q. "How many shots did Sam fire?"
A. "He fired two shots and then the pistol jammed. When it was found, it was still jammed."
Q. "When did you fire?"
A. "After Randolph had been shot."
Q. "What callable gun did you and Randolph have?"
A. "I had a 38 revolver and Randolph had a 45."
SEES RANDOLPH FIRE AT SAN
FAULKNER
Q. "Did you really see Randolph
fire at Sam Paulkner?"
After Mr. Brayton finished reading the testimony of Mr. Sheffield, Mr. Dennison, prosecuting attorney, then asked the court to dismiss the case against Mr. Frank Randolph for the purpose or calling him as a state witness. The request was granted and Mr. Randolph was then called upon to testify.
In taking oath, Mr. Randolph had to support his right arm with his left hand as the bullet being still in his arm made it rather difficult for him to raise it.
After taking oath and starting his testimony he stated that his name was Frank Randolph and that he resided at 1138 E. 41st street. He also stated that he had been a member of the police force since December 19, 1921 and had been associated with Sheffield, his superior, for the past two or three years.
Q. "How did you happen to go to 1358 E. 51st, street on the night of April 24, 1927?"
A. "Because, Sheffield told me to."
Q. "So it had been the custom that when Sheffield said that you were to go to a certain place that you and he would go?"
A. "After Sheffield said that we were to go to this address, we left 1st and Hill and started. We were told that there was bootlegging going on there. We left the car on Ascot, went through a yard of courts climbed the fence, passed by the rear house on our way to the front house. In leaving the dining room window, looked in and saw Mr. Dickson and Mrs. Harris standing by the dining table. Mrs. Harris had a pitcher in her hand and was pouring something out."
Q. "Did you see what was the color of what Mrs. Harris was pouring out?"
A. "No, I couldn't tell, I just know that she was pouring something out of the pitcher."
Q. "Did you not testify before the Grand jury that you saw Mrs. Harris pouring WHISKEY out of the pitcher."
Defending Member
Having as the main speaker, Dr. L. K. Williams, president of the National Baptist Convention, the Baptist Young People's Assembly of the Western Baptist Association closed a very successful session at the Second Baptist Church, Los Angeles, Sunday, July 10th. The Assembly convened from July 6th-to 10th. Much enthusiasm was
MRS. EVA OVERR SQLOMON
Director of Religious Education of the
Western Baptist Association
manifested by the young people who were present in crowds at every session. An excellent program was rendered morning, afternoon, and evening with enlighten talent appearing. Many interesting things along inspirational, instructive and recreational lines were brought out and evangelical, missionary and stewardship lessons taught. Although this was the Assembly's first session, it was permanently organized and will meet annually under the Board of Religious Education of the Western Baptist Association.
The credit of having this Assembly goes to Mira. Eve. Overr. Solomon, chairman of the Program Committee. It was through her earnest efforts and hard work that the Assembly was started and the session went over big. Due to the complete success that Mrs. Solomon made, the Board of the Baptist Association (white) presented her with $800 as payment on a car. Credit is also given Dr. T. L. Griffith, active general chairman; Rev. A. T. Hines, chairman publicity; Rev. C. H. Hampton; Dr. W. R. Carter and Dr. W. H. Rosier.

"PIGEON SLAYS RAT AFTER GRIM BATTLE"
This was one of the big captions in the first section of Sunday's Examiner. The article went on to say that "mother love whose surgeries and sacrifices differentiate naught between species or orders of life spurred a frantic mother pigeon on to kill a huge rat which entered her nest on the top of a building in the city of Baltimore, and was making a get angry along the telephone wire with of her young in his mouth.
The article went on to say that staid lawyers, their girl secretaries and clerks came to windows to show the mother pigeon in her fight for the protection of her fledgling. And the article which has not been quoted directly closed with these words:
"The battle was on—and mother love won."
IS AMERICA BECOMING MORE HUMAN?
As we read this very appealing little story about a pigman with outstanding mother love, and a thieving rodent, who paid for his greed with an ignominious death, we wondered if these same staid lawyers and their clerks would have evinced a similar amount of interest in a Negro lad paying the price of some imaginary crime with his body hitched to a burning stake while his heart-broken black mother—far enough behind the onlookers as not to be discovered—suffers vicariously as did Jesus when He hanged on the cross and was mocked by his accusers.
And we ask, IS AMERICA GROWING MORE HUMAN?
AN ALL-NEGRO VILLAGE
"Mound Bayou, in Mississippi, is an, "all-Negro village of 1800 inhabitants, founded forty years ago by Isaiah Montgomery, a slave belonging to Jefferson Davis.
"Mound Bayou celebrates its fortieth birthday today. It has a $100,00 brick public school, a $40,000 African Methodist Episcopal Church, a $20,000 Baptist Church, a Carnegie library, two private houses of brick, no jail, one policeman, few arrests. All officials, mayor, postmaster, chamber of commerce, are Negroes."—I. A. Examiner, July12, 1927.
If Mississippi with its handicaps as to climate and location can offer the world Mound Bayou as an example of the Black Man's ability to govern and be governed, then we wish to ask California and California, what's the matter with Allonworth?
We believe that Allensworth was founded upon the lofty ideals an old Mound Bayou. but it will take a little more suffering and sacrifice to make it what the Mississippi village is. Let us hope, however that the next time Arthur Brisbane writes about Mound Bayou it will have become a city!

The type of porter of whom I write is, I believe, known to every service man of any length. One night the writer was receiving passengers on the San Diego Owl. A porter, whose name I will not call, approached me for a loan, stating that he was on a car going to New York and he had to have money on which to eat at once, whereupon, I being a liberal old soul advanced the hungry man the sum for which he asked, saying as I did at that this was my regular run and when he returned from his trip to New York with his party of oil man he would find me at the same old place and the return of the loan would be appreciated. What I am to see is all the writer has up to this day is his promise. What I am curious to know is, why, if he had just left home as he said, did he not eat at one meal home before he left? And why, since he knew before hand that he was going to take this long trip, did he not come prepared? From all indications it appears to me that this particular porter is on the beat and makes a practice of this method of getting by. There are many like him, and it is a pity for a porter to drop so low that he has no word. There is always some excuse for a porter getting broke away from home, but when a porter reaches that stage where he must leave home broke, it's time for that gentleman to turn in his keys and get a job in town.
How many of the Los Angeles porters are making progress? Are you
to operate on a run year in and year out; and never have anything but is good time to show for it? Or are you one who is laying a dollar sale for a rainy day! Many of his are far too quick to throw a dollar away when there is another one in eight. It is a condition which has always existed among Pullman Porters more than any other class of men; early come, easy go, and when you get ready to leave this old world, the second initial to the condition which by this time we should have learned to eliminate. The only way to have something is to get in debt and pay it, by hard work. Buy some of this earth, you cannot go wrong, do not be afraid of debt. A man who owns his own home, of buying his own home is always highly respected in his community; he has the earmarks of amounting to something, but a man who spends it, he the earnmarks of amounting to something, but a man who spends it, he the earnmarks of amounting to something, but a good fellow and unreliable; if you are one of those types who is listed among the unprogressive, wake up and get out of the rut, get a hold on something, and do it quick before it is too late.
A little over a year ago, Col. Mitchell of the air service created quit a sensation when he broadly exposed office aviators at the White House, stating that as far as actual flying experience was concerned they had little, and surely not enough to dictate to pilots who had spent the best part of their lives in actual flying. He was severely dealt with by the Government. But as a result, the case was the forerunner of awakening the government to the true facts about aviation. Then came Col. Lindbergh who demonstrated to the world the possibilities in aviation and airplanes. He had already had his line established and, working on a paying basis. America is now about to do the same thing. Air corporations are springing up all over the United States; in a short while they will be carrying passengers, all over the States. On July 11 the first transcontinental air line will start its ship from each end of the United States—one leaving San Francisco, the other Chicago. They will make stops at Sacramento, Reno, Salt Lake, Cheyenne, Wyo., Omaha and Chicago. In California, the Pan-American Air Line

"Little Rock, Ark. July 13.—Robert Allen was dawned 15,000 and sentenced to serve six months on the county farm Wednesday, on a charge of resisting arrest. While Allen was charge with restating arrest, the real grievance against him was that he was one of two Negroes who made a "date" with a white woman and trapped by officers at the trarying place on the night of June 21.
Allen's partner was alain by the Officers and Allen himself is alleged to have been roughly handled. This is the heaviest fine ever imposed on this charge. The law provides a minimum fine of $80 and a maximum imprisonment of six months. In imposing the unprecedented fine on Allen, Judge Weas made no comment except that the law provided no maximum fine.

Newbern, N. C., July 11. (By the Associated Negro Press)—Albon L. Holsey, Secretary of the National Negro Business League, was guest of the local league here last night in closing a week's tour of Eastern North Carolina in interests of the National League.

Avery of Durham, Secretary-Manager, the North Carolina Mutual Insurance Company, and Regional Director of the National Negro Business League for North and South Carolina, also Prof. J. D. Reed, Vice President of the Commercial League. Mr. Wilson of the local leagues were revived on organize and the new program of the National League explained.

Mr. Avery is arranging for a special Pullman Car for the delegates from his district.
Personality and "Pep Plus Service at the New Chick Inn
Now in its second week since its opening the new Chick Inn at 23rd and Central avenue is being crowded nightly. The personnel of any business means much to it, so if there is anything whatever I in the selection of a staff the proprietors Messrs. Graham and Johnson have done themselves proud.
N. C. Harper, the chef, was a chef on the N. Y. Central, a number of years and brings with him all their latest dishes and styles of catering. Chefs Penn and Baines are also well versed in the culinary art.
So many of our eating places allow the employees to drive away trade by uncountreous indifference and unconcerned manner that these two gentlemen have aimed to guard against this evil by employing waitresses who are really sales ladies of food, serving quickly and neatly with the smile that goes a long, long way. They are Mrs. Harvey, Miss Coleman, Miss Juanita Green and Miss Olive Parker.
Receiving Degree From Law School
Three hundred and seventy-four students comprising the largest graduating class in the history of the New Jersey Law School, will receive their degrees tonight at the commencement exercises' at the Shubert Theater.
One of the students to receive his degree will be William Wheeler 58-year-old principal of Central High School. Mr. Wheeler intends to serve Wheeler with his son, Mervin Wheeler, and take his bar examination next May.
H. Theodore Sorg, a member of the faculty, will present the degrees, and Professor George S. Harris will award the prizes. David Seabury will address the graduates.
Another Milestone Of Progress
This week marks another milestone of progress for the group in Southern California. The first Mortgage Company to be owned and managed by our group in Southern California has been organized. Some of the most substantial men on the Pacific Coast will be connected with this organization.
Dr. E. R. Driver, one of the largest property owners in the city of Los Angeles, and whose experience in investing money is known to almost every bank in this city, is to be one of the higher ups in the Organization. This company, while not a charitable organization, will do away with all the red tape connected with the average Loan Company. If anyone has a mortgage that is due or confining due, the Company, without cost or obligation, appraises the property and tells you just the amount of loan the property will stand. Aside from first Mortgage loans, the company will make second mortgages for building and repair purposes at the regular low rate of interest. Connections have been made with several of the largest financial Corporations in the city, who have been underwriting more than $20,000 monthly for this company, which has been quietly shaping its affairs so as to announce that it is ready for business.
Temporary headquarters are located at 1720 Central Avenue. Larger quarters will be opened when suitable location can be found. There are several prominent ministers, one lawyer and several business men who will guide the destiny of this company. Professor John at his law course in Southwestern Law School will be manager of this Company. Several public meetings will be held in the near future so as to acquaint the public with the super-service offered by the Associated Loan Company.

BEAUTIFULLY DECORATED AND NEWLY REMODELED HALL TO BE THROWN OPEN TO PUBLIC IN GENERAL RECEPTION AND HOUSE WARMING
Los Angeles will experience an entirely new sensation when the newly remodeled building at Washington and Central avenue is thrown open to the public in a general reception and house warming of the Mystic Order of the Wise Men of the East and West. Friday evening, July 22, 1927 the entrance is upper floors of the building have been decorated, making the new Wise Men's hall one of the beauty spots of the city. The entire third floor is devoted to the supreme offices of the order.
The new truths of this fraternal organization have been assembled by a number of well known local men and women and are devoted to building up the history, education, and stronger co-operation in our race. It gives to the public a long-felt need, for it has often been said that the colored race has no history, has no music, and no literature; and many of us accept this dictum without any real understanding of how baseless it is and how easily it must be refuted by a simple reference to the annals of the past.
That we do have a history—and a proud one it is—is simply verified by reference to ancient Egyptian records which are clear and undisputable, wherein it appears that during the several dynasties, at or about the 23d century before Christ and prior there, to the Ethiopians were the actual rulers of Egypt. Their civilization was the most advanced of any of the world at that time; they advanced in knowledge and understanding and in the glories of conquest. That they may have been torn from their high estate by overpowering numbers and their glorious civilization destroyed by the hordes of Assyrians who came, "down like a wolf on the fold" detracts nothing from the historical fact that the Ethiopian dynasties were among the most conspicuous and glorious of the world, and that they have been dimmed, their music abandoned and their literature merged with another is simply demonstrative of the fact that, in the height of their glory, they lost sight of the principle of mutual co-operation and self-heal and began to pull apart at the very time when they 'should have pulled together.
The most conspicuous sovereign of the 13th Dynasty was NekisRa, the King of the North and South, and under his wise guidance the Ethiopian people made such progress and advancement of people of the world at that time. He founded a secret order at that time, which had for its main ob
New York, June 14—John Daly, 27 years old, of 352 Washington street, Jamaica, was sentenced yesterday by Judge Abel 'a in the Queens County Court to eighteen years in Sing Sing, and Joseph Brown, 67 years old, a Negro, living at 328 Union Hall, Jamaica, was sentenced to life imprisonment, for the use of kingsmen and six ducks. Both men had previous records. They had been found guilty last week by a jury on a charge of burglary and larceny.
Brown has served three terms in the New York Penitentiary and three terms in Sing Sing. Daly had three minor convictions against him.

lecture the incinication of that very proud or harpny and mutual assistance, amenable to the further progress of the race. The secrets, rules and manias which he propounded and instudated have endured down the centuries, through all the gloomy history of the race and stand today as the basic maxima upon which our group may well find its plans for the rehabilitation of the race to its ancient glories.
It is the object of this secret order founded 2316 years before the birth of Christ by the illustrious Nehki-Ra-king of all North and South Africa, to train every embroidered brain and soul that is devoted to the emblem of good God sends to ponder the problems or the world, to educate every member of the race, both large and small, to know the beauty and dignity of honest toil and to appreciate the advantages of racial cooperation and racial unity, to eradicate the unclean niches that come from the germ of ignorance and superstition and to make the world a better and happier place for every race and creed and color of human kind.
The Mystic Order of the Wise Men of the East and West is founded upon broad principles and seeks to teach all of its people the glory and beauty of right living and honest endeavor; that health and happiness go hand in hand with cleanliness of mind and body; to leave no center in all this vast world where any group or people can bread the vices and crimes which come from ignorance, to sow the seeds of right thinking and to teach everyone not to seek for selfish ends but to serve the service; to uphold others to make themselves worthy of all the benefits and advantages which will come to them when they are ready to receive them; to give thanks by service for the blessed opportunity; to love and to labor for the betterment of all.

Tries To Defraud City Of $50,000
Philadelphia, Pa., July 11. (By The Associated Negro Press)—Morris Gilgoff, who is employed as runner for a lawyer, and Olm Brown, a young man and a cripple, were sentenced to the county prison on a charge of attempting to defraud the city of $50,000. It was believed that these two men had been instrumental in having suits filed in the local courts for alleged damages, and a crusade against fake accidents has been started. It is said of Brown that he claimed to have been hurt in an automobile accident near Elkton, Mr., but that he through Morris Gilgoff, had built a story around a hole in the pavement of one of the city's streets. When cross-examined, Brown fell down, admitting that the entire affair was a frame-up.

CHURCH OF CHRIST (HOLINESS) IN CONVENTION
The California State Convention of the Churches of Christ (Holiness) convened in their ninth annual session with Bethel Church or Christ (Holiness), Los Angeles, June 27-July 3, 1927.
Monday morning opened the sessions under the leadership of the State President, Dr. Wm. A. Washington.
An old time song and praise service was readily engaged into by all. The President then delivered his annual message, therein expressing his delight and appreciation for the large number of delegates, members and friends present.
The prevailing spirit of "love, unity, brotherhood and co-operation seemed to have enveloped every heart, due to the fact that the daily sessions were started off with the 8:30 morning devotional services, thus setting every heart in a receptive mood.
The Pastors of the various churches of the City, honored the Convention by leading their presence and their many encouraging remarks along with their soul-stirring gospel messages. Dr. T. A. Bedford, of Denver, Colo., also left a few words of brotherly love and advice, bidding them God's many blessings. Brother C. C. Bailey, very sincerely gave the welcome address on behalf of the Church. Dr. L. B. Brown in his eloquent and able manner, addressed the Convention on behalf of the "Interdenominational Ministers Alliance, and which was so beautifully responded to by the State Secretary, Mrs. L. D. Prutt. Each auxiliary was largely attended and made exceedingly good reports. As a whole, the entire proceedings of the Convention were successful.
The State President, Dr. Wm. A. Washington, again wishes to thank every friend, member, delegate, pastors and choirs for their every effort put forth in helping to make the Convention a success. May God ever bless and keep you.
L. A. Man Heads American Woodmen Dist. Convention
California received the highest honors beateted by the District Convention of The American Woodmen when more than seven hundred delegates from eight states who met in Kansas City last week elected John E. Rector the Deputy and Clerk of the Los Angeles Camp, No.1, as president of the convention for the next year. Rev M. M. Haynes of Austin, Texas, Editor of the Mouthpiece; the only other nominee for the presidency was overwhelmingly defeated upon the first ballot. Other officers elected were: Atty. T. K. Price, Denver, vice-president; M. L. M. Nettles, Ft. Worth; Clark; Mrs. Luella Lawson, Oklahoma City, Texas; Mrs. A. King, Houston, Tex; Ass't Clerk; Rev R. W. Shaw, Dallas, Preslate; T. W. Smith, Arkansas, Escort; Mrs. A. M. Ward, Ft. Worth, Orlandtat, Fort Worth, Texas was selected as the next place of meeting.
The delegates received a sort hearty welcome by the people of Kansas City and many were the social functions staged in their honor. The minkmoth street parade staged by the Woodmen was considered the best that has ever been held at a district convention and thousands of people lined the downtown streets applauding the various units, consisting of hands, wail, team and decorated re-
hicles who participated for nearly one thousand dollars offered in prizes. The Denison, Texas band woh first prize in the contest at convention hall on Wednesday night. The Fort Worth band won second prize. The convention originally scheduled for New Orleans was changed to Kansas City because of the disastrous floods in the Mississippi basin.
The Supervisors and Field Workers Conference which met in conjunction with the convention elected as president of that body J. T. Holes of Houston, Texas, the veteran supervisor who has led the field in production for over fifteen years. Supervisor W. C. Smith of New Orleans was elected vice-president after Supervisor B. H. Graham of Los Angeles had declined the office B. H. Graham was selected to head the committee on plans and extension problems for the next year. The states forming the convention of the first district are California, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas.

Last Sunday night forty were baptized in the new baptistry and a large audience filled the main auditorium and gallery—the service in general was a profitable one and many expressed themselves as elated with the beautiful church building.

"Over the Top Valley Truck Farm's Fourth of July
"Many people arrived' at the Valley Truck Farms
Many others were on their way. Some went astray.
But the majority had a lovely day Down Valley Truck Farms Way." It is marvelous to state how this beautiful little spot is being developed today, bringing to the sane thinking public the actual necessity that stands before us.
About two years ago, this tract opened up for the benefit of a certain race with the idea of promoting a prospect, or in other words, traiting our race to one of the most essential occupations for a good and happy livelihood. It has been proven by other races that from the soil comes many treasures. Many substantial foundations in the commercial world can be traced to Mother earth; from there starts all real substantial business.
We have heard the term, "Back to the Soil," we have denied the fact that we have heard it. Some of us are heaths to listen. It is not a new idea, but it is a fact that we must look to Mother earth for our beginning as all other successful races have done before us. Now comes Valley Truck Paras and its promoters, not with an original idea but with the facts that the farm life is the essential life, that it does away with many hardships, with many worries and it brings to our door that step which eventually leads to success.
Two years ago there were but few of the people or the race who thought or trying to raise fur rabbits for a liv-

tempts at raising chickens in a small way; there were still fewer who cared to dig into the soil and plant seeds for the coming market and so on, until it dwindled down to the few, who were partially successful. But Valley Truck Farms are now in everybody's thoughts, the people are now willing to listen. First: the proposition has proven to be sound; second, the titles clear; third, the water conditions are superb; fourth, the climate healthful, and the opportunities around San Bernardino are compared favorably with the Los Angeles of a few years ago, when Los Angeles began to jump in leaps and bounds. While San Bernardino can never surpass Los Angeles in population or otherwise, it bids fair to become a very prominent place on the map of California.
About seven or more months ago, Mr. Foisy who with his wife was engaged in a restaurant business on Hooper avenue and knew practically nothing about rabbits, he today stands high as an authority on the raising of fur rabbits. He is now established on one of these ranches and is doing well. Much credit is to be given to Clarence Ennis, who is now very well known in our circles for his painstaking perseverance and determination to prove to the public the things they ought to do and know. We have been watching with interest this particular man for the past five or six years, and we find that he is always on the job, untiring, and ever ready to interest you in what he seems to feel and know as well as we, to be the proper enterprise for the people. It is needless to dwell on this particular point, or man, or being, because the majority of us are well acquainted with this man, though some of us misinterpret him, we feel quite assured that he not only has put "Over" the Valley Truck Farms under the aforesaid circumstances but we expect through his energies many other pleasant surprises and I daresay that California history will be incomplete in the years to come without the name of this man and his undertaking, as he succeeds in making families happy that might have been otherwise.
We hope that more of our people who are going about the cities looking for jobs, or praying for relief, or killing their precious time away in this short life where time is money, where time is precious, where time is our all, and soon see as he and his present followers, that the one acre farping proposition with either chickens or rabbits, etc., is one of the true roads to success and happiness in our most delightful climate of Southern California, as well as good citizenship which all communities should be and are proud of where success is assur-
General Education

ard Appropriation
(By: A. N. P.)
Washington, D., C., July 13.—The
Executive Committee of the General
Education Board through Dr. Johnson who was inaugurated as President of Howard University June 10, 1927, that the General Education Board has decided, not only to make available at this time the $80,000 Provisional promised of two years

The General Education Board has made the $130,000 available at once so that there will be no interruption of the progress of construction or equipment of the additional Hair Million Dollar Medical Plant.
BOSTON POLITICAL LEADER DIES
(Byr A. N. P.)
New Haven, Conn., July 13.—Alderman Harry G. Tolliver, assistant Corporation Counsel, and widely known politician, died suddenly while mowing his lawn at his home 59 Goffe St. Saturday evening. When he was stricken, Dr. George F. Converse was called but medical efforts were of no avail. Medical Examiner Marvin M. Scarbrough pronounced death as due to heart disease.

NO "OLD MEN'S" CLOTHES
Tailors say they have ceased making "Old Men's Clothes," for the reason that there are no old men. There has been a decided lengthening of the "expectation of life" in recent years, but the men who are old according to the reckoning of birthday anniversaries refuse to wear the sort of garb that was once the uniform of the elderly. And it is the mental attitude illustrated by their independence and enterprise in this respect that is helping to keep them young in body and spirit.

The Recall against the Mayor and City Attorney, Jesse Stephens, proves a roo back, or in other words, a "dub dub." In the first place just why issues should be joined for the purposes of a recall between the Mayor and City Attorney is an enigma to most of the people. Very truly much could be figured out against the Mayor and perhaps considerable headway made, but when they join with him one of the most popular and efficient city officials ever to hold office, liked by friend and foe, truly the whole fabric collapses and the Mayor and all can rest comfortably with no fear of the Recall getting even a passing notice.

As the case of the People vs. M. B. Sheffield proceeds from day to day there is unfolded a deplorable state of affairs in our police department. It is exemplified where officers are wont to tremble and shake with fear of dire punishment by the loss of their jobs, if they dare tell the truth as it is expected they should do.
This situation has been testified to during the trial now pending in Judge Elliott Craig's court. As a matter of fact at this writing there is a tense situation and men in high places in the department are trembling in their boots in fear of the wrath of an indignant people which seems to be forming and there is no telling at this moment where the situation will end.
As the mills grind at this time it is Sheffield who is bearing the cross and whether he will crack and make further disclosures remain to be seen. Noted for his patent on the newly coined phrase in police parlance, it would be amazing indeed should he come to the conclusion as in days gone by to exclaim "EVERY TUB." In this case we aver there would be truly a rattling of dry hones in the Los Angeles Police Department.

The season for corn on the cob is here, and has never a single poet lifted his voice in praise of this delicacy? What could he not make of,
Those vaporous rows of aureate pearls ..
Glowing beneath the golden tide of butter, keen with salt. Surely some other literature than that of breakfast food could wax rapturous over the sweet-heart of the corn, that marvelous, dewy whiteness, honey sweet, which at last yields itself up to strong, questing teeth.
Sacred literature bears witness to the seductions of corn. When the timid Israelites cowering in the desert fastnesses of Sanai learned Canaan was "a land of corn and wine" they experienced a sudden change of heart and burst across the Jordan. Their depredations among the corn fields and wine jars of the Hittites, Hivites and Jebusites are reported to have been something scandalous. They knew what was good, did those hairy patriarchs.
But whoever undertakes to tell the world of the joys of green corn must leave a certain incompleteness in his description of the table scene. To those who limit themselves to six or eight large ears at a sitting, there is something almost disgusting about those who do not desist till they have "eaten their length in corn." Their barbaric cries of pleasure, their smashing, rending onslaught and the drip of warm oil from their elbows are quite too suggestive of scenes on the cannibal islands.
But what if shameless barbarism does once a year surround our polite tables? Life is short and false teeth overtake the strongest. So butter your ears and be merry, for Golden stature does not grow in the field of Elysium.

What do you think of this? A jury in the State of Georgia found a white man guilty or being one of a mob who took a woman from her bed at 2 in the morning; carried her into the country and administered a sound beating. She recognized the voice of the one who held her head between his legs as Acres, a Baptist Sunday School teacher and devout factum of the church. The "Gang" tried to establish an alibi for him. Six of them testifying that he was with them at that hour administering medicine to a sick son. But the jury found him guilty. Now you know that hurrah! for Georgia. The woman was white. Do you think for one moment that a black woman's word would have outweighed the alibi testimony of six white men? Not in Georgia! Even if the jury knew they were lying.
North Carolina is reverting to type it's hard to eradicate that disregard for law which is the rightful inheritance of those who form the mob Their forbears, sciences of the prisons whose open sesame was an indenture for a trip to the new found Continent it may be that the blood lust is a rightful inheritance: Broadus Miller, a Negro was accused of a crime. For days he eluded his pursuers. Footsore, his feet encased in rags, from treading the trailless mountain; the ravishin' pangs of hunger gnawing at his vitals he sought refuge in a mountain cabin. The human blood hounds were on the trail, and soon the cabin was surrounded by hundreds of armed men. Miller came to the cabin door to surrender. There was a volley and he fell, lifeless, pierced by a hundred or more bullets. That was bad enough, but here is where blood lust of inheritance lies. His eyes were oozing blood, brought out on the steps of the jail and a pathway roped off in order that the hundreds of men, women and little children might pass in order review before the ghastly piece of mutilated human flesh whose sightless eyes knew nothing of the passing event. But the descendants of the indentures of the past were handing the blood lust on down. North Carolina will have to make a triple increase for her educational fund if she would wipe off the stigma which has clung for a century.
The national sensation of the week is the apology of Henry Ford for the attacks against the Jews appearing in a series of articles in the Dearborn Independent. Even then there is a diversity of opinions. Some doubling his sincerity; others seeing the forerunner move, and claim that Henry has an eye on the Presidency. At any rate, the Jews are about the only people that could have gained an apology from the magnate.
Here's a funn—one, and it happened in Texas. A Nazi bell boy was accused of assault on an actress, a guest in the hotel. He was tried, found guilty and sentenced for 100 years. Then as an afterthought, the judge thinking he might probably survive the century, he added one year more—one hundred and one years.

But becoming a Countess changes her race—that is, if we are to believe the Heart American, she is a Filipino. Now, if you will tell us, who ever heard of a Filipino being named Baker, Josephine Baker?
PANDOLPH'S CASE DISMISS-ED TESTIFIES FOR STATE (Continued from Page One)
room and Sheffield went in the rear of the house. Mrs Hargie started to the dining room window and I started after her. Just at that time, I was shot."
Q. "Why did you start after Mrs. Harris?"
A. "Because I saw her take a pitcher and milk bottle off the buffet and I thought that if it was evidence, she shouldn't destroy it."
Q. "When did you whistle to Sheffield?"
A. "Just as Mrs. Harris started to a. Where were the sitchers?
Q. "Where were you sitchers?
A. "In the upper right arm, between the elbow and shoulder."
Q. "What happened after you were shot?"
A. I fell on the floor to keep from getting shot again. Then I saw Sam Faulkner STANDING IN THE BEDROOM DOOR in a crouching position. I pulled my cun out of the holster, and just about that timer, I heard another shot and Sam Faulkner disappeared in the bedroom. I didn't know that he was killed at that time, but I saw Sheffield firing that direction."
He continued his testimony by telling that after Sam Faulkner disappeared, he hollered to Sheffield not to let him escape. Then Sheffield, Mrs. Harris and Randolph went in the rear of the house, Sheffield in the back bedroom and Randolph in the pantry. The elder Mr. Faulkner then appeared at wiping door and Sheffield shot at him. Faulkner was not at the piano as he testified, so Mr. Randolph says. He further stated that he heard four shots altogether.
Q. "When did you first see the automate?"
A. "After I left the kitchen, I want in the front and saw Mrs. Faulkner leaning over her son's body. That was the first time that I knew that his had been killed. Just by the body between the body and door was the automatic. I had my gun in my left hand, and, my right arm being useless, raked the automatic over by me with my foot, put my gun between my knees, and then picked it up and put it in my pocket."
Q. "Didn't you see Mrs. Faulkner reach for the gun, as you testified before the Grand Jury?"
A. "I did not."
Q. "Who telephoned for the ambulance, Mr. Allen?"
A. "No. Sheffield telephoned for the ambulance."
Q. "When is the first time you saw Brown and Bewly?"
A. "At the Santa Fe Hospital."
SHEFFIELD SAYS 'EVERYTHING
IS ALRIGHT'
Q. "Tell what happened when the ambulance came."
A. "When the ambulance came, I was taken to the receiving hospital at 1st and Hill, my arm bandaged, and then I was removed to the Santa Fe Hospital. That night, I saw Brown, Bewly and Sheffield at the hospital. Sheffield told me not to worry that everything was alright and that I had killed Faulkner, and that Brown and Beauty had seen everything.
Q. "Did you and Sheffield ever, talk over the case?"
A. "We did, at the house and at the hospital." He told me that he (Shefield) had not shot me that he saw the Falkner boy shoot me, and that I killed the boy."
Q. "What did you say when he told you that you had killed the boy?"
A. "I told him, Alright!"
When asked why he changed his story before the grand jury, Randolph said that after thinking it over, he knew that he had not told everything right so wanted to tell the truth. Three guns were brought forth for Randolph to identify which he did: one being Sheffield's 38, one the automatic which he had found beside the boy, and the other being his 48. Other things brought for evidence were: a milk bottle, a funnel, a glass pitcher, and 3 bottles of whiskey. Randolph admitted having seen the milk bottle and pitcher, but said that he did not see the other things.
Judge White attorney for Shemell, then asked Randolph if he would permit the bullet, which is still in his right arm, to be removed. Randolph answered.
"As far as I am concerned, it is atright, but my doctor said that if it was removed, 9 chances out of 10. I would lose my arm because of the fact that the bullet is scattered about in my arm in about twenty different ways, and I have no money to pay for the刀."
Q. "How do you know that it is scattered?"
A. "Because the x-rays showed this. Several x-rays were taken of my arm."
It was finally decided that the court appoint a disinterested doctor to examine Randolph's arm to see if the removal of the bullet would necessitate the amputation of his arm, and that the district attorney's office would be responsible for the charges thereof.
Mr. Edward C. King, investigator in the District Attorney's office was then called. He told that had gone to the Faulkner home many times and bad made a thorough examination there.
"The first thing I thought broken place on the sidewalk that leads to the porch and in this broken place was a screw eye. In examining the screen door of the front, I discovered that the place where the screw eye had been was freshly broken, that is, it had been broken within the last few days (this examination was made the day after the murder). Then I looked for bullet holes. I found none in the front room, but I found one in a chair in the dining room, one in the swinging door between the kitchen and dining room, and one in the rear door of the bathroom."
Q: "Did you notice how the screens fastened on the windows?"
A. "Yes, they fastened on the windows from the OUTSIDE! one was off of the front bedroom window."
"I have been, to the house many times since in company with various officers, including Mr. Sheffield, and made several examinations. The body of Sam Faulkner was taken up from the Evergreen Cemetery and another thorough examination made of it to see if more bullet holes could be found but only one was found. Along with other officers, Mr. Crossman, a specialist in telling the calibre or bullets, we examined the bullet that killed Sam Faulkner. We found that it was a .38 calibre bullet. We also fired Mr. Sheffield's gun and found that the markings of the bullet from Sheffield's gun and the markings of the bullet that killed Mr. Faulkner are EXACTLY THE SAME!"
CHIEF BEHIND THEM ONE HUND-
DRED PER CENT
J. F. Brown, 1516 E. 46th street of the vice squad, was then called. He said that about 8:30 on the night of April 24th, he called Central Station as he usually did in the regular course of business, whover answered the phone said that Randolph had been shot at 1358 E. 51st street, then they, he and Bewley, hurried to the number given.
"When we got there, we saw Sheffield, but not Randolph. I asked Sheffield what had happened and he said that Randolph had been shot and that he, (Randolph) had killed the boy. We started looking for bullet shells and found a .32 shell near the fireplace in the dining room. Then I took Mrs. Harris and Officer Jarvis to Central Station. Bewley went with Sheffield.
Q."Did Sheffield ever talk to you about the case?"
A. "Yes. After booking Mrs. Harris, we went up to the detective bureau and Sheffield told us to say that we had seen it all. That he had gotten in touch and talked with Chief Davis and the Chier had said that he would be behind us 100 per cent. Sheffield told us to say that we saw the Fraulkner men climb in the window, and heard the shots as we were sitting in our car. He also told me to say that I was with him when he found the liquor of the driveway of the Fraulkner men. Sheffield said that we saw the automobiles behind Fraulkner and that when Mrs. Fraulkner picked the gun up, that Randolph enchanted it out of her hand. Sheffield wanted us to make out reports but the clerk said that it was not necessary, so Sheffield used our (myself and Bewley) names on his report as witnesses.
Q. "Did you see Randolph at the house?"
A. "No, I didn't, but Sheffield told me to say that I did. I didn't see Randolph until I went to the Santa Fe Hospital."
Q. "Did you have anything to drink that slick".
A. "Yes, before we went into the Santa Fe Hospital. Sheffield had a half pint of bonded Cedar Brook and all of us took a drink. There were only three of us, Sheffield, Bewley and myself.

sention with Randolph about the cage!" "A 'Yee, when we got in the hospital and after Sheldon had asked Randolph how he felt, he told Randolph not to worry that Chief Davis was behind him 100 per cent. He also told Randolph that he (Randolph) had killed the boy."
Q. "Did, you see anything that looked like mash in the home of Mrs. Harris?"
A. "Yes, I saw a 5 gallon stone jug under the kitchen stove with a mash of apples, prunes, and water. It was fermenting and could be easily smelled."
Mr. Brown also told that he and Bewley were called to go to Officer Finlayson's office, where he took a statement from them. He then told the story that Sheffield told him to tell. After having told this story to Officer Finlayson and the Grand Jury, he changed his story and is now telling the truth.
Mr. Brown is indicted for perjury and was under a ball bond of $10,000.00; after he changed his story and told the truth, his bail was reduced to $1,500.00. His trial is set for July 15th.
**BEWLEY ON STAND**
On Wednesday morning Mr. Buford Bewley, 3109 Central, police officer at the time of the murder, was then called. He told that after arriving at the house, seeing the dead body, etc., that he went out in the kitchen because saw some blood out there. Sheffield came out there and told, I want you to sitify me and say that you to sitify a gun under the hand of the deaceless.' He could not say any more because someone came into the kitchen and interrupted us. I didn't see any liquor, but I saw some chipped apples and prunes fermenting in a stone jar under the kitchen stove. I also saw some whisky glasses, a milk bottle, a pitcher, and a funnel which Sheffield booked as evidence."
"We left the house and I went to Newton Street Station with Sheffield in his car. Officer Brown, Jarvis and Mrs. Harris went in Brown's car. I stayed outside in the car until Sheffield had booked Mrs. Harris, then we went to Central Station where Sheffield booked the evidence. We, Brown, Sheffield and myself, then went up to the Detective Bureau and Sheffield went out and stayed for about a half hour. When he returned he told us that he had just had a talk with the Chief who was behind us 100 per cent and that he, Sheffield, wanted us to say that we had seen everything. I told Sheffield that I didn't want to get into it because a human life had been taken and there was going to be a lot more to it than they thought. But Sheffield assured me that there would be no trouble and I was finally persuaded.
Q. Did you drink anything?
A. "Yes, when we went to Santa Fe Hospital to see Randolph, Sheffield said, 'Well, boys, we might as well have a little drink.' Then he took a half pint of liquor out of his pocket and we cleaned the bottle. Then we wanted something to kill our breath. No one had any gum or anything, but Brown had one cigar which he gave to Sheffield. Sheffield cut the cigar in half, gave me one half and kept the other."
The rest of Bewley's story was similar to Officer Brown's.
Q. "Did you ever have any other conversation with Sheffield about this case?"
A. "Yes, in the witness room before we went in to testify before the Grand Jury, Sheffield told me to be sure to remember that Randolph matched the gun out of the hand of Mrs. Faulkner."
Mr. Bowley, like Brown, is indicted for perjury and after changing his story, his ball was reduced from $10,000.00 to $1,500.00.
Officer C. M. Bradford of Newton Street Station was then called. He went out to the Faulkner house after receiving the call for the ambulance, and guns, but found a water tumbler in the front room that smelled of liquor.
Mr. Hargas, (white) night operator at Newton Street Station made his testimony, making clear the fact that no record is made of the calls of a policeman unless he is on the work sheet. Hence the reason that there was no record of the call of Officer Brown on the night or the murder.
Thursday, July 14th.—First witness called was Dr. A. S. Loganinger, the doctor, who was appointed, by the c.urt to examine kandolya's arm.
He said that he had examined Randolph's arm at 11 o'clock in his office on Wednesday, July 15th. He said that it was possible to have the bullet removed without loss of arm and that he judged that the bullet was of a 38 calibre or larger. More than 18 pieces of the bullet were seen in the arm from the x-ray pictures which he took.
Mr. Chas. H. Jarvis of the homicide department, Central Station was called. He testified that he went out to the house with the flying squadron as soon as the call was received.
"I saw the deceased on the floor of the front bedroom, but I saw no firearms. Randolph on was on the front porch in his shirtless when I entered. I saw Sheffield with glass pitcher and milk bottle in his hand. When I saw the butt of his empty shell, I told him to mark the ship and the place where he found it, and give the shell to Sheffield. Then I went to Newton Station with Mrs. Harris and Officer Brown."
Inspector Finlinson was to have been called, but he was ill and unable to appear. His testimony as given before the grand jury was read, saying that he had the 45 bullet which Sheffield had given him and what was supposed to be the bullet that entered one of the dining room chairs. Mr. L. C. Crossman, firearm specialist was then called. He said that he was assed by Dr. Wagner, antopsy surgeon, to tell the calibre of the Bullet which he had the doctor, had removed from his hae of Sum Faulkner. We were examining the bullet I found that it had been fired from a 35 cal fire Smith and Wesson revolver. I had Sheffield's gun which I fired into some flour, then I compared the markings of the tee bullets and found them the same. Every gun has its own peculiar marking. "Q. "is it possible to fire a .35 bullet from a .45 gun?"
A. "Yes, it is, but the bullet will have to be wrapped with paper and the bullet would not go far."
Q. "Can a gun be jammed without firing it; can it be jammed purposely?"
A. "Yes, it can." (Mr. Crosby made two demonstrations to the jury showing how the automatic gun can be made to jam. It is to be remembered that the automatic which was supposed to be the gun that Sam Faulkner shot Randolph with, was jammed when taken to the station by Sheffield.)
Q. "Can the calibre of a bullet be determined by the empty shell?" A. "It can." Mr. Crossman was then shown the shell which Officer Brown found in the dining room near the fireplace in the kitchen. He shot the fireplace the bullet that was in it. He was unable to do so because the identification marks had been defended by the markings which Brown had put on it.

But since the Hudkins family, has settled here now the local fans feel that Ace has always belonged to them. They simply love the boy, not only for his game, clean spectacular fighting but for this plan simple friendly way that makes him stop and shake hands with the ranged best news-kid, as quickly as with the biggest "butter and egg mano".

The writer stood in line at Hellman's bank to draw that last three bucks. The man in front turned round: It was Ace Hudkins. "Why hello," he said, "step up in my place, I'm in no hurry." Good reason, it takes longer to deposit about $30,000 than it does to draw THREE.

(By: A. N. P.)
Boston, Mass., July 13—Herb. Finnegan, sporting editor of the Boston Daily Traveler, said in the July 1st issue, that if colored players were allowed in the big leagues, Joe Jackman, the elongated pitcher from Texas who twirls for the Philadelphia Giants, would make the grade with ease. The following day commenting further on the prowess of the colored ball tossers, Mr. Finnegan said Jackman was one of the best pitcher in the country, Walter Johnson, Leo Meadows, Flint Rhem and Grover Cleveland Alexander notwithstanding.
Last week "Bullet" Rankin of the same Philadelphia Giants, entered the baseball hall of fame when he pitched a no-hit, no-run game against the heavy hitting Copeland Club of Quincy. Only one man of the Copeland team pitched a no-hit virtue of a pass in the third inning. After which the fast ball artist settled down to perfection. The final score of the game was 1 to 0.
After sport writers on the Boston dailies say the colored team is playing the best brand of baseball of any in the city including the National League Boston Braves, and the American League Red Sox.

Jake Kilrain and Sailor
Larry Fight Draw at
Pasadena
Morrie Cohan's new stadium at Pasadena sa the most exciting, most thrilling and most surprising battle of the heavyweight elimination tournament still in session when on Thursday night eight of the top 16 teams met between Young Jake Kilrain, the sensational Omaha heavyweight and Sailor Larry, one of the best boys on the Coast for several years back.
The bout topped a card that had been ruined by withdrawals and substitutions, the semi-windup between Joe Hudson and Jack Delay being stopped by referee Charlie Raymond "I have no one to blame but myself for almost losing that fight last Thursday night, at Pasadena to Sailor Larry," said Kirkul. "I knew I had won the bout on points and after I had cut his eye badly decided that I need not be careful but could lead with a long, hard fight. I did so and we caught me with a win in. I caught me for the same count and when he dropped me again I was determined if I could tight out the roams that I would keep up the lead I had made in the earlier rounds. I did so and got a draw but believe me that Larry is a dangerous man and will beat him next time for I will take no chances.
Kilrain is to meet, Mack House next week in the delayed match which Larry substituted in, Mack having a note toe and unable to box. Jake is considered the best heavyweight on the Coast now because, or his ten round battle against George Godfrey in which he carried the fight to God, prev all the way.
Kilrain is from Omaha, Nebraska and bound some of the best boys in the East and midwest before coming to Denver where he won the match.

HIT HIM! HIT HIM! YELLS FIGHT PIC- TURE CROWD
Picture audiences at the Olympic have grown until every night looks like fight night at the boxing arena which is trying out for the first time screen films of the famous Dempsey fights.
Many fight bugs have seen the pictures two and three times already.
The Dempsey-Firpo pictures are the most dramatic or any fight ever screened.
Firpo is knocked down nine times before the stayed knocked.
But it also shows Dempsey being hurtled through the ropes from a crash on the jaw by the giant South American.
This is the only time in Dempsey's career that he has been off his feet since he became heavyweight champion of the world.
The comparison between the three Dempseys:
1. 1. 121-When he knocked out Carpenter in four rounds.
2. 1923-When he knocked out Firpo in two rounds.
po in two rounds.
3. 1926. When he lost to the counter-fighter, Tunney makes an amazing study.
Can the Dempsey who choped Carpentier to bits and rolled Firro nine times he the same Dempsey who let Tunney bounce him around in a bumiliating fashion?
But Dempsey was slick when he fought Tunney. It was pouring down rain from the fourth round on and the rushing Dempsey was handicapped more.
The "Great Moments of Great Fights" is also shown along with the Dempsey filma. Here the fans, see Villa win the fwdweight by knocking out Jimmy Wilde. They see Criqui knock out Kilbane top the featherweight championship of the world. They see Leonard and Tendler when both were at the very peak of their great careers.
The picture audience bursts into cheers when the more recent training camp pictures of Dempsey at Oial and White Sulph Springs are flashed across the screen.
Dempsey is still the hero of the California fight fan—and the world.

For the real MERRY WIDOW WALK, meet us at the Browns Salm
Washington, D. C., July 11. (By The Associated Negro Press)—There has been organized here during the past winter season. The Kriwgna, Nrogle Little Theatre. This is a direct outgrowth of the New York Kriwgna, and has for its object the promotion of art and the giving of a sympathetic and correct portrayal of Negro life. It is considered very timely, as so much has been produced on the stage in America that does not truthfully depict the Negro, most of the stage productions making him appear lazy, shifty, and all else, but what he is, and this movement is intended to offset that impression. The general public will realize that there is much beauty, art, culture, and genius in the Negro race in America.
Three plays have already been produced before large and enthusiastic audiences at the Dunbar High School "The House of Sham" and "Compromise" were both written by Willis Richardson of Washington, and "The Maker of Dreams", the third play, was written by Oliphant Downs. The Krigia presented "Mortgaged" and "Flight" by Willis Richardson and "Foreign Mall", a crisis prize play by Eulala Spence.
Willis Richardson, a member of the Krigia Guild, has attained considerable fame among Negro writers as a playwright. He is more generally as being the author of "The Chip Fortune", which has been played in cinemas with "Salome" as a curtain raiser, both in this city and in New York. He has been frequently, a winner, in literary contests of The Crisis and Opportunity, for the artistic portrayal of Negro life.
The Krigan organization is sponsored by the Literature Lovers of Washington; and is under the direction of Mrs. Carrie W. Clifford, president; Mrs. Amanda Gray Hilyer, treasurer; Mrs. Willis Richardson, Secretary; and Mrs. Narka Lee Rayford, corresponding secretary.
The Kriwa will review many plays during the summer with the idea of bringing to the public a live and interesting schedule of artistic endeavor for the season to follow.
Flowers & Rosenbloom
Stage Love Feast
Chicago, Ill., July 11. (By the Associated Negro Press)—The six thousand and more cash customers who braved the rain to see Tiger Flowers, the fighting Deacon, from Georgia, "stage a comeback" or Moxie Rosan-bloom establish his claim for a chance at Delaney for the light-weight championship of the world were solely disappointed here Monday evening. Jack Delaney would have and child have whipped both of them easily on the same card if each had fought as they did at the White Sox Park.
Both fighters were in good condition and put up a clever exhibition of boxing but those punches that might have done a little damage always missed their mark. The only solid blow landed was at the close of the light when Flowers slipped and in the attempt to rise Kicked Marvel over the eye flooring him. This blow was not considered in the rocking.
The preliminaries outshone the main fight by far, as the little yellow really fought. The semi-windup proved a fluke when Enanuel Jondie, a Greek, who evidently was dragged out or his kitchen where he serves as chef, took two socks on the chin delivered by Big Bill Tate, found a soft spot and turned in for the evening. Jondie is a fighter he called to impress the crowd that booed him geuriously.

Both Fuente and Alexander have the reputation of being afraid to take them when the going gets hot. I will give you my impression of their fight.
Both are essaying a comeback and this fight means much to both of them. Some one is bound to hit the canvas during the course of the evening's entertainment. I wonder who it will be?
More next Friday. Until then, Adios!
"THE MOONRAKER"
Among the interesting new books at the Jefferson Branch Library one will find the delightful story or the "Moonraker" written by F. Tennison Jesse, the nephew of that famous poet, Alfred Tennison. The "Moonraker" is a short history of a little boy, Jacky, who runs away to sea. His adventures lead him to cast his lot with a pirate ship, the "Moonraker" when the ship he is on is sunk by the pirates. Finally Jacky finds himself on the island of San Domingo where he meets Toussaint Overture, the brave Governor-General of that island. Jacky fights with Toussaint's army when Bonaparte sends the French fleet to subdue him. Toussaint's noble battle only to be treachened is betrayed when he has been promised peace. When a prince on board the ship sails France, Toussaint cries out. "Freedom is a tree that cannot be destroyed. They have only cut down the trunk"—and here Toussaint stuck out his chest—but new braches will spring up, for the roots are deep in the heart of man."
After three months on the island of San Doningo Jacky felt changed, and in some measure, strangely older. It was not that he was now a man, that he had been in battles by sea and battles by land, and had suffered hardships and seen strange sights; it was that, in a little over three months, he had seen the whole or life in one man's face, and that face a black one. Toussaint had shown him—and without knowing his hopes, not for himself but for mankind: shown him faith and frust and love and sacrifice, and after Jacky had watched these thing he had seen them betrayed.
After you have read this charming, alluring book, you will undoubtedly want to read another, so come to Jefferson Branch of the L. A. Public Library at 2211 West Jefferson St. and you will find other books, equally as interesting and enticing. Select your vacation reading now!

GRADE CROSSING
Last week we pointed out that all accidents in which persons are killed or injured must be reported to Sacramento, and the article predicted that when a true picture of the serious accident situation occurred we will aside considerations of sentiment and politics and business and adopt adequate measures of safety.
One of the measures which will de-
pend and receive increasing atten-
tion when the true facts are revealed,
is the separation of railroad and high-
way grade crossings. The number of
grade crossing deaths and injuries is
furiously appalling. The railroad people
naturally blame the motorist, saying he is impatient of restriction and moves at too high speed, and is heedless of warning, etc. This may all be true, although I make no admission of it. We can easily find carelessness and impatience and needlessness on the part of railroad men. The fact is thousands are needlessly being killed or injured at railroad grade crossings and the slaughter should be ended regardless of who is at fault. Experience has demonstrated that a separation of grades is the only sure preventive.
The Legislature took three steps in this direction at its recent sessions. First, it provided that at least 5 percent of all money provided annually for the maintenance of state highways shall be expended in the separation of crossings at grade. Second, it proposed a bond issue of ten million dollars for the same purpose. Third, it provided a means of creating a local county district may separate grade crossings at local expense if desired. It will take a long time to eliminate all the dangerous grade crossings in the state, but a beginning has been made. The railroad interests have at times sponsored a rule which would require all motorists to come to a full stop before passing over a railroad crossing at grade. Whether such a rule would be practicable, or just, or effective will be discussed in the next article.

A frequent source of accident, sometimes serious, is the pulling out from the curb, of a parked car without the driver having first given a warning signal, according to the National Automobile Club.
Section 130 of the California Vehicle Act is quite explicit on this subject. It says: "The driver of any vehicle upon a public highway before starting, turning or stopping such vehicle shall first see that such movement can be made in safety, and if it cannot be made in safety, shall wait until it can be made in safety; then, if the operation of any other vehicle may reasonably be affected by such movement, the driver shall give a signal plainly-visible to the driver of such other vehicle of the intent'ion to make such movement."
This provision is honored more in the breach than in the observance and often causes cars coming up from the rear to swerve and crash into opposing traffic.
KEEP YOUR TIRES INFLATED
Motorists who decrease the air pressure in their tires during warm weather are robbing themselves of many miles of tire service, points out Mr. Allen of Allen Tire Shop. "While it is admittedly true that heat increases the air pressure in tires, the percentage of increase is so slight that it is not even an important factor in the tire wear," said Miss Nichols. "Many tire users will counter with the claim that on various occasions the air pressure has been increased several pounds by actual check with an air gauge. This is true, but it is not the air-pressure that causes rapid wear, it is the generation of heat. For instance, let us examine two tires, one in which the air pressure is several pounds below normal, the other at prescribed and proper pressure.
"The tire which is under inflated is run at a fairly high speed over hot roads. Sidewalls, cords and tread flex much more severely each minute than at normal pressure. Every flex or movement of the under-inflated produces heat. After a time heat developed has caused the air to increase to somewhere near normal pressure. This air has been generated by effort on the part of the tire at cost to the tire's life."
An emergency repair of a broken spring can be made by taking a piece or old spring or a piece of hard wood and wire together to the spring, as a spindle. Would be applied to a broken limb. If the spring is broken in the center, wire in a block on which the frame can rest, and drive carefully.
The speed limits in the District of Columbia are 40 miles on the open road, 25 miles in incorporated cities and 45 miles on carves, passing schools and at grade crossings and intersections.

CAMPERS FAIL TO OBEY LAW
With the aim of eventually altogether eliminating Harvey's control on the road to Big Bear Valley, the lower control station was moved up over the week-end to a point one and a half miles above the present control. The road to the new station has been widened for two-way traffic, state advises to the Automobile Club of Southern California touring bureau, and the control will be at the new location for the rest of the season while the work of widening above this point is being completed. It is expected that for the rest of the season the additional control established over the holiday will be, continued so that down travel may leave Big Bear at 8 a.m., for the Santa Ana control at 9:30 a.m., and up travel from Harvey's at 14 a.m.
What becomes of all the worn-out
tacticals?
Some of them go into the museums like the celebrated "Elise," that led the van of French cabs that carried soldiers to the front to stop the invasion of Paris in the World War, but the maturity do not have so kind a fate.
Curiosity on the subject was satisfied yesterday by J. A. Bald, president of the Yellow Cab Company, one of the principal transportation agencies of the city.
"We do not have to worry about disposing of cabs that are no longer economical to repair or continue in service, as the demand for them is great," states President Bald.
"Motion picture companies have a demand for obsolete types and worn-out vehicles as many of the films today require a machine that can be blown up or driven over an embankment in stucco that the coat of a serviceable vehicle would not permit.
"Smaller communities where the service is less attenuous absorb many cabs, that the company has found have reached a point where it is no longer economical to operate them. "Then there is always a good demand for the chassis of cabs to be equipped with track bodies as the sturdy construction of the running year of taxis makes them desirable as delivery wagons on a road that matches for small town incharge."
Sacramento, July 3 — Notice that cars equipped with magneto headlights operated without the use of a battery will be banned from the highways of California after September first, next, was issued here today by Frank G. Snook, chief of the Division of Motor Vehicles.
In a bulletin issued to traffic officers, Snook advised that a section of the motor vehicle act passed by the 1923 Legislature, prohibiting the use of such headlights, will become effective at that time. The officers were instructed that they will be expected to enforce the law to the letter.
The law will affect several hundred cars in the state, chiefly of ancient' models and of a small popular make. All cars of newer models are equipped to be lighted with current derived from a battery.
Cars lighted by a magneto, produce little or no light when going at a slow rate of speed; when going at high rate of speed, they are apt to glare.
PUT OUT YOUR CAMP FIRES
Sacramento, July 9. -Keep your muffler cutout closed and put your fires out!
California motorists about to leave the grind of the city for, the cool fastnesses of the mountain forests are urged to accept this bit of advice by Frank G. Snook, chief of the Division of Motor Vehicles.
With the summer vacation season in full swing, Snook declared greater care than ever before will be needed if disastrous fires are to be prevented.
"Fortunately," he said, "most of the newer types of cars are not equipped with a muffler cut out, but many of the older ones have them and disastrous fires are known to have resulted from flying sparks when they were left open.
"It is now concealed that they accomplish no good purpose. The Legislature recognizing this has condemned their use after January, 1929.
There will be 11 per cent more cars on the highways this summer than last year, he said, due to the increased registrations. He urged smokers to equip their cars with proper receptacles for burning cigarette stubs and matches. The 200 traffic officers of the division are cooperating with the State Department of Forestry in preventing and putting out fires.
A Few Timely Hints
On Mountain Driving
Now that vacation time is here, and many drivers who are accustomed to threading the comparatively level highways near the coast will be seeking recreation in the mountains, a few timely hints anew mountain driving may not be amiss, according to the Safety First Bureau of the National Automobile Club.
Remember that in the higher altitudes your gear should be chosen at least four times, taking a particular hill. For instance, a hill which your car would ordinarily take in high at sea level will require a shift to second at 4,000 feet.
Do not burn up your brakes by riding them on the down grades; go to second or low, depending on the steepness of the grade and let your motor do the braking.
Sound horn at all turns where the view is obstructed.
When you meet a car on a one-way road, the follow coming up-grade should be given the right of way that, is it, be necessary for one to back to a passing place, the follow coming down hill should do the backing. It is easier to control the car backing up hill than bucking down. Carry skid chains. Showers are frequent in the mountain sections and between trumpet and disaster. Be not overloaded your car.
