Welcome Delegates & Visitors To A.M.E. Conference GOV. YOUNG DEFENDS ACTION IN THE GLASS GASE VOLUME 41 I have this day issued a Warrant of Restitution in the matter of Edward Glass, whose extradition has been asked by the Governor of Oklahoma to answer a charge of murder made against him in Creek county of that State. Glass is charged with having shot and killed a police officer in the City of Sepulpa, Oklahoma, on January 2, 1923, and only recently has been located and apprehended in Oakland, California, where he is now held in the city jail, awaiting the outcome of extradition proceedings. In this case and in another case from another state which arose a few weeks ago a new question in extradition has arisen which appears to me to be fundamentally sound, namely—Is there such an inflamed public opinion in the State of the alleged crime as to render the prisoner physically unsafe, owing to a likelihood of mob violence from which the law is unable to protect him? And if such a condition exists is a Governor bound to return the pirifer? My answer to this latter question would be No; and this leads me to state certain principles which seem to me to apply to extraditions in accordance with the Federal law governing such interstate renditions. If the charge of crime is sufficient and the other proceedings regular, if the identity of the fugitive is established, if he was physically present within the demanding state at the time of the commission of the offense charged and has bled from the justice or that state, and if no anterior motive for his return is shown, as for example, to return him for the purpose of serving civil process and not to prosecute him for a crime, then and in such case the Governor of the asylum state is in duty bound to return the prisoner. As to the regularity of proceedings, in this case, as in all others, I have had to reply upon the Attorney General. His office assures me that all the proceedings in this requested extradition are entirely regular and that the papers are sufficient. The Governor of the asylum state cannot enter into the question of guilt or innocence of the fugitive or of mitigating circumstances surrounding the crime. In other words, he cannot try the case, since that is a matter solely in the jurisdiction of the State where the crime was committed. Neither can he assume that State would not give a fair trial; for if that assumption were ever adopted as a cause for refusing extradition, a precedent would be established by which a fugitive from justice might always be safe through arbitrary action of governors in the envision states. Although his duty is ministerial, a Governor, however, is not bound to return a fugitive when he would be returning him, not to Law but to lawlessness. In other words, I am convinced that the law of this land does not make it the duty of the Governor or of the Courts of an asylum state to surrender a prisoner to possible physical violence because it is asked in due form. Such an interpretation would be a perversion of the constitutional provisions, the purpose or which is to remand a fugitive for trial according to law, and not to destroy $ \mathrm{h}_{\mathrm{m}} $ by individual vengeance. This last proposition has been urged, and properly so, by the friends of Edward Glass. They have presented their case, both in an open public hearing and personally to me in an orderly and dignified manner. They have assured me that, although as law-abiding citizens they believe that the law should be carried out, same time they are honestly fearful that if Glass were returned to Oklahoma he would never get to trial, but would be destroyed by physical violence in defiance of Law. They have urged that if Glass is in danger of lynching or of other such physical mob violence, he should not be returned while such danger exists, and in this I entirely agree with them in respect to my attention. Accordingly, I have delayed action for a week subsequent to the hearing, until I could institute inquiries to learn whether such danger actually exists. As a result of my investigation, I find that the fears of danger must have been predicated upon a condition at the time the police officer was killed rather than upon any public feeling in Oklahoma at the present time. Nearly five years have elapsed and during that five years I and that even a memory of the occurrence has been largely obliterated. Within the last few days in response to my inquiries I have received many telegrams from reputable citizens of Oklahoma, in all walks of life, including clergymen, judges, businessmen, city officials, physical therapists and city Masons. Bopulus, and other City, county and state officials, and such public organizations as Service Clubs and Chambers of Commerce in Sepulpa, all to the effect that there is no excitement whatever in the city, and absolutely no danger of lynching or mob violence of any kind. Finally, two telegrams from the Governor of Oklahoma assure me that Glass will be adequately protected on his return and will receive a fair and impartial trial. The second telegram, received only today, in response to a request for a careful and personal investigation, reads as follows: "Return of Glass to Oklahoma positively safe. There is not the slightest indication of any violence. A fair and impartial trial guaranteed. Trust that you will honor requisition." In view of these assurances, therefore, it is quite evident that, whatever excitement existed in Sepulpah at the time of the killing nearly five years ago, is now entirely subsided. Oklahoma is as much a sovereign State of the Union as is California and her courts must be presumed to be equally capable of administering justice. The duly constituted authorities of Oklahoma are charged with the responsibility of law enforcement and the punishment of crime committed within the borders of that State. Their responsibility to protect one charged with crime, to safeguard his person as well as his rights, and to accord him a fair and impartial trial is fully as great. I have no reason to believe that government in Oklahoma will fall to function honestly, fairly and impartially. Accordingly, although I entirely respect the motives and sincerity of all those who have been making a plea for Glass on account of a possible physical danger to him if returned to Oklahoma, having satisfied that no such danger exists, I manifestly have no alternative other than to treat his case exactly like any other case when the proceedings are in due legal form, and to return the fugitive as requested in the papers of extradition. To do otherwise would be to forfeit the respect even of those who, through a mistaken impression as to danger, are now making the plea. C. P. JONES. D. D.

(To be Continued) The Third Annual Session of the A. M. E. Conference of Southern California convened at the historic 8th and Towne Avenue Church on last Wednesday with ministers and delegates from throughout Southern California in attendance as well as many visiting divines and laymen from other sections of the state with the RJ. Rev. Bishop H. B. Parks presiding. The session was quickly organized and the reports of the various charges were submitted all of which denoted a steady gain over the previous years spiritually and financially. INTEREST CENTERS IN THE ELECTION OF DELEGATES TO GENERAL CON- FERENCE Next year being the year for the General Conference which will convene in Chicago, a deal of interest and quite a bit of rivalry is at hand as to who will be chosen to head the Southern California delegation to the General Conference. Therefore, the Conference is in some respects not unlike an embryonic political convention. Prominently mentioned for delegates to the Conference are the names of Rev. J. H. Wilson, Presiding Elder, Dr. W. D. Miller, pastor of 8th and Towne Avenue Church; Rev. J. M. Brown of Pasadena. To one on the side lines it looks like Rev. Wilson will breeze in with a nip and tuck contest between Rev. Miller and Rev. Brown as runners up for one or the prize. The election will come off on Friday. Sunday will e a high day for the closing of the Conference. Bishop Parks will presach on Sunday morning and will read the appointments on Sunday evening. Wednesday evening was a notable occasion when a huge banquet was served to the ministers and delegates by the well known and highly cannable caterer W. T. Holt and his wife. After which a huge reception was given and program rendered in the huge auditorium. Prof. Elmer Bastlett's monster choir, in full force, rendered several pleasing numbers. Rev. J. H. Wilson was presented by the pastor as master of ceremonies, who introduced the other participants on the program. The subject of this sketch first saw the light in Baltimore, Md., where he received his early education. For a young man only 26 years of age, Curtis Carpentier has had a varied and interesting experience. From 1909 to 1913 he was in the navy where he received the training that formed, as it were, the background for his future activities in many walks but all leading to one and the same goal. Mr. Carpenter was lieutenant in the U. S. Army during the World War, and spent eighteen months in France during which time he took part in the "Battle of the Argonne Forest", greatest offensive of the war and was decorated by the French government for exceptional bravery while in action. At the close of the World War young Carpenter returned to the states, and became an active part of the World's greatest Metropolis, New York, where he was assigned to the post of advertising and circulation manager of the New York News from 1919 to 1921. "Constantly trying to and his right place in the scheme of civilization, young Carpenter with the Harlem literary touch soon found his way to the stage, and early in 1921 became a part of Miller & Lyles, Sissle and Blake's shows, 'Shuffle Along', "In Bamville", "Runnin' Wild", and "The Chocolate Dandies", both in the capacity of artist and executive. In spite of the fact that New York offered Mr. Carpentier a great future, like other young men of vision he heard, and responded to the call, "Come West Young Man", and at the dawn of 1925 he came to Los Angeles, California. It is noteless to say that his life has been one of action since his advent in this city. Immediately upon his arrival he entered the Pre-Dental College University of Southern California, during which time he was cited in the college periodical for producing the best college play ever staged in the School Auditorium. Mr. Carpentier left the University to take a position as hotel clerk at the Bronx. In this position he was soon promoted to assistant manager, and finally before leaving to take the position of manager of the Lincoln Theatre, he became manager of the Bronx Palm Gardens. As manager of the New Lincoln Theatre, Mr. Carpenter has a brilliant future before him. The Lincoln, which opens its doors to the public, October 7th, is the Eastside's most pretentious theatre; in fashion and design it is equal in every way to the down town Lincoln. The Lincoln will carry billed款 to any furnished by movie houses in the city. So in the capacity of manager of the Lincoln, Curtis carpenter has a chance to display not only his executive ability, but his professional training in the realm of the theatre. We were honored this week with the presence in our city of Mr. R. O'Hare Lanker, who is a member of the Executive Committee of the National Negro Press Association. Mr. Lanker comes from Florida, where he was dean of the Florida A. & M. College, seeking further light he comes to California to enter Stanford University for a post graduate course. While in the city he stopped at a local hotel and was entertained by the Mellows up the Searing Eagle. Mary R. Reed is spending '4 Los Angeles, Calif., Sept. 15. (By The Associated N-gro Press) A bitter fight is in prospect over the acquirement or the exclusive Parkridge Country Club of Corona by several colored Los Angelesians. This property located in one of the finest residential sections near Los Angeles with 700 acres of land, an eighteen hole golf course, tennis courts, swimming pool and other accountrements which are supposed to belong only to the wealthy is held in escrow, it has been discovered by Dr. Wilbur C. Gordon, Dr. Engene C. Nelson, and Journee W. White, who are reported to plan a high-class colored sub-division. The news burst like a bombshell upon the fashionable residents of Riverside County who belonged to the club, which had been sold by its organizer, and president, Dan Gilkey without their knowledge. Charging that they had been defrauded, a group of the whites had Gilkey arrested, charged with obtaining money without notifying the membership. Gilkey, when questioned about the sale of the club said that the members did not support the place and that his creditors forced him to sell when they threatened bankruptcy. Dr. Gordon and his associates were interested in the Gordon Manor development near Inglewood, which recently was condemned for park use. In this latter case when white people learned that Negroes were buying, they got up a petition to have the site set aside for a park. It is said by some that Dr. Gordon is in the least interesting wealthy Negroes in the project. Other say that he plans to wreak vengeance on those who spoiled his Gordon Manor project, for it seems apparent that if the white people desire their removal, it will cost a pretty penny. Gottschalk-Dones Recital Monday evening the artistically decorated auditorium of the First A. M. E. Zion Church was the scene of a brilliant display of musical talent by the pupils of Mrs. Bessie Dones, violinist and Miss Hazel Gottschalk pianist. The occasion was marked by unusual interest displayed in a program of the higher musical art. Promptly at 8 o'clock the music lovers, parents and interested friends of the twenty-two student participants began to He in so that when the first strains of the violin sounded its heart-call on the hushed stillness of the night, many hundred ears heard the call and many hearts beat quick in answer. From beginning to end the pupils of both Mrs. Donei and Miss Gottschalk executed their several numbers with grace and pleasing interpretation; displaying careful and intelligent training on the part of their teachers. The organ solos, "Sextet from Lucia"; Donzetti-Parker and Trovatore; Verdi by Miss Gottschalk received quite an ovation. Each number might be commented upon as creditable to its performer if space allowed. PICKENS INVITED AS GUEST OF RUSSIA Kemenene, sister of Trotsky, in behalf of the Cultural Relations Bureau of the Russian government has sent a radio-gram to William Pickens, inviting him to come as official guest for the celebration of the 10th anniversary or the establishment of the present Russian regime. The celebration will take place October 30th, and the radio-gram states, that expenses will be paid by the Russian Society. Mr Pickens' previously arranged schedule of lectures for N. A. A. C. P. in the United States may prevent his accepting. The Monster Moss Meeting at Roberson's Hall, in Watt, on last Monday evening, was a history making turned out as news before humiliation of interest upon the bans situation which has the people all overnight up over the attempt to handle the Curved people out of the businesses of conducting a bans line in that section. THE HINES-OVERR NUPTIALS The Pleasant Hill Baptist Church was the setting last Saturday evening for the marriage of Miss Hernie Gertrude Hines, daughter of Rev. and Mrs. A. T. Hines of 465 N. Mountain View Avenue, and Carl R. Overr, son of Mr. and Mrs. N. C. Atkinson, 1733 W. 35th Place. Rev. J. D. Gordon, pastor of the Tabernacle Baptist Church read the ceremony in the presence of relatives and a large number of friends. The color scheme was pastel shades of pink and green. Each of the Brides' maids' carried out these colors in their costumes tither of pink or green gorr MRS. HERMIE GERTRUDE OVERR gette dresses made on the basque fashion with pointed velvet bottoms, little yokes with three modest rows of shirring furnished the trimming for the waist. They were the Misses Mae Turner, Marguerite Furguson, Charlie Palmer, Evelyn Thurman and Elsie Hunt, all of whom carried gold sheepherd's staffs with large bows of pink and green tulle. Mrs. Beatrice Dunbar who was matron of honor, wore a 100-colored georgette dress with velvet trimmings. The bride wore a gown of white crepe draped gracefully from left side and caught with rhine stone buckle. She came slowly down the isle on the arm of her father, preceded by two little girls, Pauline Smith and Eva McClennin, prettily dressed in pink and green dresses and carrying baskets of flowers. Peter Thomas, Clarence Palmer, Joe Hines, Jimmie Norman, McCormick Alves, were the grooms' men, and LeRoy Flemming was the best man. Prior to the entrance of the Bridal Party Mrs. Artie Orange sang "At Dawning," and following the ceremony Miss Hortense Randali sang "I Love You Truly." Mrs. Barbara Hines presided at the organ. A grand reception was had in the social hall of the church immediately after the ceremony. The couple will reside at 630 East 47th Street. Miss Hines before marriage was one of Los Angeles' foremost young intellectuals, a graduate of L. A. High School, she at one time was an employee in the clerical department at the Hall of Records and was special written on some of the local papers. Mr. Overr is a member of one of Kansas' oldest and best families. Members and friends wish the happy couple a happy and prosperous matrimonial voyage. Golden State Opens Branch in San Diego Endeavoring to satisfy an instant and growing demand for the Superior Golden State Service, and in accordance with its remarkable program of growth and expansion, the Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Company passed another milestone when it opened a new office at San Diego, California. Mr. James A. Hunter, who made a splendid record as superintendent of the Bakersfield district, has been appointed superintendent or the new San Diego District. The new office is situated at 3109 Woodman avenue. The year 1987 has ben a year of big business and especially so for the Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Company which is the only Life insurance company in the west that is owned operated and controlled by our Bv C. A. B. STILL moving along Central Avenue, we wish to call further attention to business activities by members of the race on the Avenue between 9th and 11th streets. Holding up the banner of business to the breeze we find the Dorsey Super Station, Turner Tailor Shop, Brown New and Second Hand Furniture Co., Williams' Barber Shop, and Lee's Barber Shop. In these two blocks Japanese and Italian furnish the eating places, and it is needless to say that they get whole-hearted support from their Negro patrons. The Hub Theatre in this block is considered by the better class of thinkers a nuisance; for from time to time the management, as was the case a few weeks ago, puts on bills that are degrading to body and mind. IN my personal experiences I have found those who would rather frown that she who whom it seems finds pleasure in making life about them uncomfortable for all concerned. Some of these I am thinking of are Christians, teachers of the word that is supposed to quench the thirst of those who hunger after righteousness for His name sake. TITUS Alexander was speaker at the Democratic Banquet last Thursday at the Alexandra Hotel. Mr. Alexander was the only race representative, and it being the 56th anniversary of the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation he took occasion to call the body's attention to the same, and made a lasting impression in behalf of the race's cause. THURSDAY eve., the 22nd the musical program presented at the First A. M. E. Zion Church for benefit of D. T. Slaughter was inspirational. Each number contributed was excellent, the program boasted some of the best musical talent to be found in the city. The effort was commendable in having for its purpose the aid of a blind man, his wife and child. IT is said that H. Wells, a new comer in our midst, founder and promoter of the community league addressed the Inter-denominational Ministers Alliance last Monday morning and the body of the cloth thought right well by his advice, and bade him God's speed in his effort to do something for the community.

Monday, the Goodfellow Fight Special De Lux train operated by Bob Goldie brought to an end a trip which will long be remembered by all who were fortunate enough to make it. The train was composed or solid compartment cars. The baggage car was fitted up as a Monte Carlo; money was second consideration as far as comfort was concerned. It was the first time in the history of the Pullman Company of Los Angeles that the entire crew of porters slept in compartments. This had to be, because there were no open cars on the train. There was over twenty million dollars represented on the flight caravan, and for every two passengers there was a special bodyguard of detectives in constant attendance. All of the biggest gamblers in the country were tucked safely on board when the luxurious train shoved off for the Dempsey-Tunney fight. Not all on board were of the opinion that Jack Dempsey would come out victorious, and a goodly portion of them placed their money on it. That the different odds that prevailed. Gamblers are gamblers and a real gambler does not let any personal likes or dislikes enter into his method of betting, therefore the train was divided. Tunney and Dempsey. There was one lady passenger on board that was credited with being worth six million dollars in cold cash, she had a drawing room by herself and a compartment for her bodyguards who never let her out of their sight for a minute. Forbidden spirits flowed freely and the guests slept during the day instead of night. The Pullman crew, that handled the train was as follows: H. L. Armstrong; R. Bradford; H. A. Ross; R. Hicks; J. W. Bush; J. F. Howard and the writer; maid Vera Green of the Chicago Eastern District and Pullman Conductor D. J. Weekly of Los Angeles District. The car on which J. W. Bush was in charge was cut out in Chicago and Mr. Bush came back on the Chief. The writer can see now why it is that the Santa Fe gets the cream of the traveling public, the diners are kept open all night long. In fact, they never did close, waiters working in shifts as did the cooks. A passenger could get any kind of food he desired at 3 A. M. or 4 A. M. just the same as in the day time. It is my duty to remark right here that the Santa Fe waiters were the means of keeping the Porters out of the real money on this special; they had as many upstairs men working as they kept on in the dinner, and all the Porters could do was run their legs on the different orders and men and waiters made the money. The Pullman crew did little more than on an average trip across the country on a regular line car, although plenty of money was in invi diners are kept open all night long. In as the porters were concerned, it was TRY AND GET IT! However, the Pullman crew was fortunate in being made a present of seats to the fights by Mr. Joe Zemanskey. Entertainment was rendered in the club car which had a piano and regular cabaret entertainers. On the way back from Chicago we were informed the next day after we had left that there had been a plan to rob the train that night it was stopped by special secret service men of the Santa Fe who woke on board the train like bees. If the train had been held up they would have been well paid for their efforts—so much for the fight special. The porters did the work and the waiters got the money. A DIME IS A CRIME As published in the Los Angeles Examiner A friend or mine for a number of years, knowing me to be a humble Pulman porter with an everlasting craving for an honest dollar, maliced me the following clipping from The L. A. Examiner. Although I try not to use the other writers' stuff as much as possible, the following article by Mr. Baer is worthy of a rewrite. When the landlord refuses the rent, when a baby cancels its bottle, or when a cat spurs a mouse, it's time to call in the alienists and allow them to examine the doorknobs. But these hypothetical Whoozes are minor miracles compared with the situation just cooked up on the Pulman trains. Pullman trains, our modern invention for making overland insomnia enjoyable, are manned by courteous gentlemen called Pullman porters. These lads are obliging, hard-working and sincere in their efforts to make you just as comfortable as you can be with your hand in your pocket. If that mitt isn't in your pocket, then the Pulman porter must ring up no sale on his disappointed cash register. He depends on you for his salary, which is dishied out in shades and dimes. These Pulman cadets have asked the U. G. Government to stop the grievance of petitions, honourisms and fees, or any other sub-title for a payable dime.

The rest of their salaries must be made up by contributions from pas- sengers. Like train schedules, the porter is subject to change without notice, and very small change at that. But, the porter is wrong when he asks the government to fix his wakes. The government has a worse idea about salaries than The Pullman Com- pany. This agitation does not extend to the red cap who juggle hand bags at the depots. Those boys are satisfied to leave well enough alone. Tips have gone up considerable in the red cap department since travel- ers are packing so many quart bottles in luggage. All bags must be handled with care, and devotion, and the voyager is willing to pay liberally for scientific man ipulation of perishable freight. So the red caps are willing to gamble on getting a law-abiding traveler once a year or so. It looks as if the Pullman porters have a legitimate squawk on the stove. No man can travel on seventy-two buttons a month. The boys may keep up their hunger strike on nickles and dimes, but it looks like the first time a four bit piece is flashed there will be more strike-breakers than strikers.

REMOVAL 2804 Central Ave.; Office Phone HU WOOD INVESTMENTS—LICEN Specializing in Lands, Ranches, Ho 2804 Central Ave. Eighty-Three Year Old Man Tells of Atrocieties in Georgia Boston, Mass., Sept. 12.—A real accee of tragedy and pathos was enacted in Lynn Court last Wednesday when Thomas Murphy, age 83 of Florida, just across the border from Cornelia, Georgia, unfolded the story of his life, envolving his accumulations of wealth up to a half million dollars and his subsequent fleeing from his home and property to escape the wrath of the Ku Klux Klan. Pillage and murder stalked in the wake of his financial successes. According to his story his house was burned to the ground and his wife and daughter were found dead. Murphay's weird story brought listeners in court back to the slave-days of the Old South and uncovered the sinister activities of the Ku Klux Klan—controllers of the present order of things in Dixie. The story brought them through the drama of the Civil War and the tragedy or later days. Last Tuesday night Murphy went into the Lynn police headquarters, and asked for a night's lodging. His shabby but well cared-for clothes, and his dignified and intelligent manner impressed the officers on duty. They took him at the station they would be obliged to charge him with vagrancy if they kept him at the station. He agreed to this, saying he had walked the streets looking for work, but that his rheumatism had finally overcome his strength. He was given a meal at the station before they placed him in a cell. When officers searched his clothing they discovered he had exactly one cent and a jackknife. The following story of Murphy's life was told in court Wednesday: "I was born in 1844," he said, "a slave on a plantation near Cornella, Georgia. My master was James Murphy. Following a slave custom, I took my master's last name and called myself Thomas Murphy. "When Abraham Lincoln was President, during the Civil War, he paid a visit to our plantation, and I had the honor or waiting on him. In 1864, when slavery was abolished, my master wishes to free me, but I refused and remained with him until he died. He gave me little and of my own and a little one. I worked the land myself and succeeded in buying more, I became prosperous. "Four years ago, I went across the border into Florida. I had married a woman who was a slave on our plantation, and I had a daughter. In Florida I became more and more prosperous. I would buy a plot of land, work it myself, and sell it at a large profit." "Three years ago I made almost half a million dollars. Then tragedy came into my life. One night I returned to my home and found my wife and daughter dead and my home burned to the ground. I had received a warning from the Ku Klux Klan, but had not taken it seriously. "From that time I was persecuted, my houses were burned, my crops were destroyed. My life was threatened by letters signed by the Ku Klux Klan. New years ago I came north with $400. I left valuable land in Florida, because I was afraid to stay there, I feared for my life. "I have tried to get work here, but it has been hard. Nobody seems to want an old man. Last night I was down to my last penny when I went to the police for help." Mr. Murphy was released from the charge of vagrancy. He set out, according to a promise he made to police, to visit Lynn employment agencies in search of work. Police say they will give him every possible aid in finding a job.

Phillip Randolph, who will deliver the address upon that day in this splendid new auditorium. The message of economic organisation which Randolph is delivering throughout the country, is a call to arms, not only to the Porters but to all Black workers. The summons which he addresses is for us to do the thing for ourselves which should be done so that we may take out rightful place as useful cogs in the wheel of industry. It is a call to manhood and it is being received enthusiastically everywhere. Many organizations are rallying to the support of the Pullman Porters in their struggle for for a living wage. The splendid spirit exhibited by the management of the new Lincoln Theater is being duplicated on every hand by others who realize the justice and importance of this movement. No doubt this huge auditorium will be packed to hear the general Organizer, A. Philip Randolph. The admission will be free.

Perry of Macon, Ga., sister of Mr. Wm. H. Gamble is a visitor in the city. Miss Marie Jeffers of Oakland is the house guest of her grandmother Mrs. Randolph of 1454 East 23rd St. The E Pluribus Unum Club held its regular business meeting on Friday, Sept. 16, 1927, at the residence of Miss Rivera Woods, 2528 E. 4th St. The meeting was largely attended and it is requested that all members be present on Friday, September 20, 1927 as there is much business to be transacted. The meeting will be held at the residence of Miss Lula Perdue, 1364 E. 55th St., with Miss Marguerite Vincent as hostess. Everyone is asked to be present and on time. The meeting will begin promptly at 4 o'clock. Prof. Samuel Murphy of the University of New Orleans, senior at University of Southern California, will receive his M. A. degree in February, 1928. Prof. Murphy and Mme. Swella were classmates in Samuel Huston College, Austin, Texas. Our social, civic and educational life have been greatly enriched with in the past three weeks by the arrival in our midst of Mr. and Mrs. Chas S. Simpson of Gary, Indiana. Mr. and Mrs. Simpson are educators of note, formally employed in the public schools of the celebrated steel city of Gary, Ind., with its splendid and unique system of education. The Simpson have purchased a beautiful 1928 Buick sedan since their return to the city. Mr. Simpson has returned to his work in our local public schools from which he obtained a year's leave of absence to return to his position in Gary and to settle un business matters. They are cozy enclosed in their home at 5316 Hooper Ave. Dr. and Mrs. Penn of Washington, D.C., are visiting in the city. Friends of former years are happy to learn of the arrival of the prosperous physician and surgeon and his charming wife, formerly one of the attractive teachers of our nation's capitol. While in the city they reside with Dr. and Mrs. Wilbur C. Gordon, 1021 East Washington Stret. The Angel City Bridge Club held its regular bi-monthly meeting on last Friday evening being simultaneously entertained by the hosts of the evening with a delicious Italian supper. Out of town guests included Dr. and Mrs. Penn of Washington, D. C. and Mr. and Mrs. Simpson of Gary, Ind., who have returned to make their home here after an absence of more than a year. First club prize was won by Mrs. L. P. Grant with a high score; second prize went to Mr. Jack Hoke and guest prize was carried home by Dr. Mitchell. The club also used the occasion to celebrate the return of its former club member, Mr. J. W. Young of Dayton, Ohio. Mr. J. W. Young of Davton, Ohio has returned to take up his residence in the Angel City. For a time he will be domiciled with Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Rivers at their home on the corner of 23rd street and Griffith avenue Mrs. Young is expected to arrive in a few days. IN MEMORIUM In sad and loving memor yof my dear daughter, Cyrene Allen who left me five years ago today, October 1st, 1922. A noble soul whom God did lend. A wonderful daughter and a faithful friend, always so patient, sweet and kind: what a wonderful memory she left behind. Lovingly, Mother. ESTELLA ALLEN. Mrs. Chas. L. Upton was hostess to a dinner party last Monday night at her residence, 2190 W. 30th street in honor of Mr. W. H. Parker of Berkeley, Calif. Friends of Miss Ora Johnson will be shocked to learn of her passing last week at San Diego. Contracting a heavy cold which rapidly developed into serious illness she was taken to the mountains with hopes of her recuperation. But failing to improve she was returned to the home of a sister at San Diego, where she peacefully saw her last. Besides a large number of friends she leaves two children, sisters and brothers. Mr. and Mrs. Stewart R. Simpson of 2846 Glassell St., have returned from their vacation after spending one week with Mr. and Mrs. John Scott of Elsinore who surprised them on their first anniversary with a special dinner. They also visited San Diego and Tia Juana, returning by boat "The Yale"—which they enjoyed very much. The Y. M. C. A. staff, headed by Prof. T. A. Greene and assisted by Mr. Jefferson Brown, offered no lit- ers at If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened the treat in the form of a delightful breakfast served to the residence men of the 28th street branch Y. M. C. A. on Sunday morning, September 25th at 8 o'clock. The staff deserves very great credit for attempting to make the branch so homelike and pleasant for its occupants. More than thirty-five men partook in the delightful affair, Religious songs were sung, prayer was offered, short talks were made and the affair on the whole was quite as intellectual as spiritual in the manner of the bellow that other branches of the Y. M. C. A. throughout the country might set similar examples and thus create a spirit of warmth and brotherhood within the walls of such organization that might insure long and peaceful happiness for the residents as well as the staff. A similar breakfast may be had at the 28th Street Branch one Sunday out of each month throughout the ensuing year. Quite an admirable feat to the local Y. M. C. A. program. TENDER RECEPTION TO RETURNING PASTOR The members and friends of the Friendship Baptist Church, Watts, paid a splendid tribute to their pastor, Rev. A. P. Ramssey on Tuesday evening last. The impetus for the reception was the return of the pastor from the National Baptist Convention in Denver, Colo. Many were present and much honor was given the pastor after a report of his trip was given. Following the program all retired to the recreation ball where withountly served with Gicken Salad and triangular ice cream and cake. All left happy and wishing this pastor much success. During the absence of Rev. Ramssey, the Friendship Baptist Church was supplied by Rev. Wm. Shipley, supervisor and sermons were delivered by Rev. A. M. Cobb; Rev. N. Fergerson and Rev. E. Turley. Mrs. Ralph W. E. Bledsoe was happily surprised with a party last Wednesday evening. After leaving the home of Mrs. Bledsoe the party reassembled at the residence of Mrs. W. R. Knox on Wilmington Ave., where music and games were indulged. Among the special guests were Mrs. DeCoursey and Mr. Eugene Edgar Page, the latter giving several of his original selections and Mrs. DeCoursey was the soloist for the evening. Refreshments were served, and the party closed with Mrs. Bledsoe unfolding many useful gifts received, and thanking the friends for their hearty welcome to her to the city. Who said the Woodmen couldn't do it? Well we are doing it. Join now for $4.00. That includes everything. See us today. 1400 Central Avenue. Phone WEstmore 3479. NOBLE CHARACTER VISITS AND LEAVES LOS ANGELES Miss Clara Ida King, Superintendent of Eliza Dee Industrial Home at Samuel Houston, College, Austin, Texas, left last week for the opening of the fall session of this institution. Miss King (white) is quite a notable character having spent thirty-four years as Missionary Teacher between Samuel Houston College and Wiley University. She has played the role in real life—"Mother"—to Mrs. Sewilla La Mar (known in her school days as "Little Motherless Sewilla") and hundred of other ecolored girls of the South. Miss King, while here, was happy to visit the laboratory of Mme. Sewilla, finding her with her changed title from "little orphan Sewilla" to Mme. Sewilla, our own successful cosmetician. Mme. Sewilla was always known by the Samuel Houston College faculty and student body as the girl with a fearless personality. LET'S GO! WHERE? To 1364 East 22nd Street, for the week end. Home Cooked Spanish and Italian Dinner. Mrs. Angelette Moulton departed this life September 14th at the General Hospital after 8 long weeks of suffering. When she went to meet her Maker, at her bedside were her faithful husband, his mother and her sister. She left to mourn her hus: husband, father, step-mother, aunts, uncles, sisters and 2 small children and a huge friends. We bow in humble submission to Hiss holy will. The Golden Poppy Club held its meeting Wednesday, Sept. 21, which was conducted by the new president and proved very successful. The Club has decided to give its Who's Who dance soon and if any one wants to know more about it, see some of the members. Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Jones of Spokane, Washington, are visiting in the city and while here are staying at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Sellers at 1238 So. Mariposa. "You're Next" — -By- GLADYS GREENAWAY Dear Loyal Public (don't misunderstand us, this is not the opening paragraph of a letter to elect us to something or other, but just an expression or gratitude to our read public), it behooves us at this time to ask you, "Where goest all the common pins which we see housewives buying by the score every day?" Oh, whither away? As our loyal friend and co-colonist, Miss Alice Kennedy says, "That ain't the half of it, and how." . . . Last week we mentioned that Miss Lucille Forby was entertaining Friday, Sept. 23rd in honor of her sister, Miss Marilan Forby. We wish now to say that it was the peppiest, most entertaining house party given this year and that the punch Mrs. Forby served was excellent. Miss Forby returns to Wilberforce University to complete her course after a short sojourn in A. with her mother and sister. Miss Forby attended Jefferson High School, and had one year at McKay's Business College. During this last summer's vacation she worked at the Bureau of Printing and Engraving and was Private Secretary to Carter J. Woodson, Washington, D. C. Marian visited New York City before coming West, and was lavishly entertained while there. We look for her to conquer the world of business after her graduation and to receive honors galore before graduation which will make her family and friends immensely proud of her. Success Marlan! St. Agnes Guild of the Episcopal Church are planning some very interesting things for the very near future. They wish all the young people's cooperation in the forthcoming entertainments, and guarantee a good time at any dances or teas which they might give. --- Miss Ethel Stephens, member of the chorus at the Bronx Hotel, really takes all the prizes for personality, pep and cuteness. Certain hings were done to a certain rather ancient car on a certain night last week in front of the Bronx Hotel, so that two certain couples would be late in returning home. Certain evidence points to two young men who were seen loitering around the entrance to the Bronx by the aforesaid two couples. Suspicion hangs upon these two young men like clouds in the sky, and although one of the culprits is an amateur boxer and the other drives a green sport roadster it's only a question of time. And then —mmm. We extend our heartiest congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Bill Williams of West 35th St., who were married very recently. A house party in their honor will be given the latter part of this week and will be written up in next week's paper. She was only a Follies girl but the man follied her around. Mr. O'Neil DuBuclet, popular stude at U. S. c. bade a tearful farewell to Miss Cleo Clumb, fascinating school teacher from New Orleans, Tuesday, 27th. We hope that this very recent catastrophe in young O'Neil's life will not have any affect on his brain or his future life on the campus. (Jealousy of the co-ed's yknow.) Chairman of different committees of the Girl Reserves were chosen last Tuesday. A class in aesthetic dancing is planned for the near future. A large following is expected. The Iroquois Friday Morning Club met at the residence of Mrs. Jasper, 746 E. 32nd St., Friday, Sept. 23 with a large attendance. The morning was spent in outlining a program for the coming year and many good suggestions were made. The subject, What is the meaning of the word Club and what is or should be the object of such an organization was introduced by Mrs. W. B. Mount and quoted quite discussion with some very good definitions. The club adjourned to meet with Mrs. Medlock's, 1382 E. Washington street, Friday, Sept. 30th.

More than 2,500 Haytians have been slaughtered by American Marines since this country's ruthless occupation of the little republic, declared Horace G. Knowles, former American Minister to Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic & Bolivia, at the round table of the Institute of Politics here Monday. The former minister's castigation of America's Lacin-American policy brought forth a bitter controversy in which a number of notables were in- cited to fly in defense against his attack. So much animosity was evident that Prof. William R. Shephard, leader of the round table, called an extra session for the following day to thrash the matter out. Condr. John F. Shafroth, U. S. N., led the defense of America's policy. Mr. Knowles further said that he knew of no greater acts of inhumanity, wrong and outrage committed on any people than the United States had perpetrated upon the people of the Dominican Republic. When urged to be specific the former minister replied that 5,000 soldiers had swept over the country and had compelled the people to give up all their arms. At the end of Mr. Knowles' speech frequently punctured with interruptions, Comdr. Shafroth, characterized it as "a vindictive, vicious, and violent attack upon the policies of the government." Defending the Haytan occupation on the grounds of the general conditions of lawlessness and disorder in that country, he said: "We were simply agents of the state department and there is no case of marines being landed except for the protection of American life and property. It is our duty under international law to protect life and property." "I admit that is international law." Mr. Knowles replied, "but when we proceed to invade the territory of another country, are we not obliged to state whose lives we are protecting?" Others made attempt to defend America's position. P. O. Employes Organize Branch of National Organization BY: JOSEPH B. BROWN, JR St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 20—The National Alliance of Postal Employees has received the necessary credentials and a request for a charter for the organization of a local branch of that Organization from members of the postal employees of the Los Angeles Post Office. With the granting of this charter this Organization will have local branches in every state of the union with the exception of wyoming and Nevada. Mr. Leonard M. Grimes has been very instrumental in bringing about this movement, he being the first entitlement to take up an investigation of the purposes and efforts of the national body. He found generous supporters in Mr. Albert N. Size and other of his coworkers, who, although they had no personal ground for complaint, were readily able to see that with a strong national organization behind their endeavors, more might be accomplished. The National Alliance of Postal Employees was organized for the primary purpose or protecting the rights of the Negro employees in the Railway Mail Service and made such progress in these efforts that it was decided to change the constitution so that all Postal Employees under civil service might be embraced. It has now grown to a membership of 2,300 and is making rapid progress to reach the five thousand mark by January 1. There are 22,000 Negro Employees in the Postal Service and this Organization is attempting to show them what results may be obtained in the way of promotions, seniority, and preferred assignments if they will only organize and request these things with a solid front. This is the only Organization composed of civil service workers of Negroes who have the official recognition of the Departmental Officials. The Postmaster General, Hon. Harry S. New, delegated the Second Assistant Postmaster General. Hon. W. Irving Glover to bring to this body his message of a square deal at their convention held in Memphis in July and told them in unmistakable terms that the Department is behind them and wants everyone of them to have a square deal. Mr. Roy O. Wilhoit of St. Louis, the National President has just returned from a tour of the eastern cities and held the foundation for the affiliation of over 1,000 members within the present month. Mr. Wilhoit and Editor Brown, visited the Association of Negro Federal Employee in Cincinnati, Ohio, Sunday, Sept. 11, and they voted unanimously to affiliate with the National body. There are 100 members in this group. The National Alliance of Postal Employees publishes an official organ which is sent to every member of the Organization, gratis. This journal contains the most comprehensive discussions concerning affairs pertaining to the Postal Service of any paper published for this group of government workers, as well as branch notes, topics of the day, and articles of general interest. The employes of the Los Angeles Post Office are to be commended for their foresightedness in organizing, as in Organization there is strength, and through organized effort all great achievements of the world have been accomplished. We desire to commend the leaders in this movement in Los Angeles and to request that all postal employees in that section investigate and become members of their own Postal Organization wherein their suffrage will not be questioned and they will have equal privileges and be able to govern with their beers. Labor Leaders Form Committee To Aid Pullman Porters Union Under the Chairmanship of Thomas J. Curtis, Vice-Pres. of the State Federation of Labor and International President of the Tunnel Workers Union, a committee representing over a dozen of the most powerful unions in the East has been formed to aid the Pullman Porters Union i nits efforts to create a situation which will necessitate the appointment of an Emergency Board of Arbitration, as specified under the new Railway Act. The Treasurer of the committee is former Assemblyman A. L. Shiplacor, Manager of the International Union of Pocketbook Workers. Frank R. Crosswail, the former Executive Secretary of the Trade Union Committee for organizing Negro Workers, is Secretary of the Committee.

BY: DRUSILLA DUINTEE HOUSTON There is great diversity of opinion in the race as to our way out of our strained condition in American life. We have had many theoretical solutions. Ours is a condition that will stifle the very failing civilization around us. Let us examine our situation. We are trying to support ourselves and satisfy our longings from the foundation of professional life, the business, and a little retail business. We are seeking a kind of school to be prepared to enter the same narrow channel, but we cannot satisfy their tastes and remain an honest people. Our condition in American Life is one in which we are cut off from all remunerative avenues. Aryans have filched for themselves all the civic positions excepting a few that are very menial and ill paid. I am not writing this to stir up red-hot protestations or to stir animosity, that will not get us anywhere. We have had plenty of that without advance. I am stating a case that we may SEE our condition. Until we understand a proposition how can we handle it? The channels through which money comes, we have not yet touched, they are banking, manufacturing, and trade. If we must live the white man's life we must win his income. We cannot have nine homes, expensive furnishings and ride in luxurious cars honestly upon the incomes now open to nine men out of ten in the race. This is why so many American citizens are selling dope, making mash, and doing other questionable things because their tastes have exceeded their training and earning capacity. I do not believe all these people WANT to be law breakers. This is a day that requires technical training for a man to keep his footing. Examination would prove that most of these people shirked training or were unable to get it and now in order to keep up with the demands of fashion" must break the law.

I have known Negroes who had been careful, saving, to enter into obligations along property or business lines but finding that their earning capacity did not come up in any way to their optimism they turned to questionable practices rather than lose all that they had. This happens in so many cases and so much money paid down reverts into the hands of whites that we who think ourselves capable of solving any kind of problem ought to be busy pointing out to race leadership that we must have a broader economic foundation, more avenues by which the race may secure revenue, that we may supply growing aesthetic needs.

The scarcity of the country doctor as a resource of keen popular interest is matching the scarcity of teachers in the rural districts which has been met by consolidations and the employment of specially trained "teachers' helpers." The country doctor is stronger in tradition than the country teacher and his disappearance even by rumor is disturbing. In the generation represented by the grandparents of today the country doctor was one of the greatest American institutions. He carried his supply of crude drugs in his saddle bags and an exhaustless sunshine in his face and his cheery words. Whatever he may have lacked of scientific attainment to handicap him as compared to his town brother, he compensated for in that rare atmosphere of fraternal cheerfulness which no country doctor was without. Patients improved when they heard his horse's boofs on the road. All the people for miles around were as members of one big family so far as the doctor was concerned. As the towns grew the young doctors chose to display their skill there, some because the life was less laborious, some because they believed rewards better. Th country doctor of today is at the disappearing point, largely because of his consideration for wife and children. He says frankly cash returns are satisfactory often, but that he wants better conditions for wife and family than he finds in the country.

A Chicago banker has found that if the "widow's mite", assuming it to be a cent, had been invested 1900 years ago at 5 per cent semi-annual interest, compounded, it today would reach the brain-tiring sum of $563,100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. Now the banker or no other person would say that the widow ought to have invested her mite rather than give it to the cause she did, but every person will point to it as an illustration of the tremendous expansion a small sum of money will experience if placed at compound interest. The banker gives a more practical example of his point, when he says that $50 a month placed in a savings bank paying 3 per cent will net the saver in thirty years the surprising sum of $29,113, or if invested at 5 per cent in bonds will become $41,609 in the same period of time. Any school boy can catch the lesson of thrift which these examples teach. Thrift as an abstraction may not have much of an appeal for youth, but in such terms as the Chicago banker uses, the subject becomes practical and interesting and illustrates that haits of indubstry and thrift bring their reward. When a man marries he goes into the hands of a receiver. No town is big enough for a reckless drivers' convention. The unemployment problem for many is how to keep that way. Unquestionably the first anti-bob agitator in history was Samson. In view of the parking situation, why hasn't somebody invented a collapsible car?

J. WHEATON Aside from the appointment of the private secretary to Governor Young; Homer Spence to a Superior judgehip and the selection of Hon. Chas. A. Whitmore, state printer, to succeed him; politics "under the dome" has been very quiet. The above changes go into effect October 1st. No need to comment on the efficiency of those appointments. The judicial equipment of Homer Spence is qualified by his known ability as a lawyer, and the journalistic experience and knowledge of state affairs, gained by service on several boards endowed Mr. Whitmore with all of the essentials necessary for the exacting duties of his position. A great deal of unnecessary, as well as unwise, criticism has been heard in the signing of the extradition papers requested by the State of Oklahoma for the return of Edward Glass, who, it is alleged, shot and killed a police officer in Sapulpa. A hearing was held and an audience given representative of the Governor's office. Prior to that hearing communication was held and all of the information concerning the case brought before the legal staff of the State's executive office. The Governor, himself, got in to personal communication with the Governor of Oklahoma, who assured him, that after visiting Sapulpa, interviewing the prominent citizens and business men of the city, he was assured that should Glass be returned that he would not only have safe conduct, but a fair trial. And pledged himself to see that such was done. To have compiled other than he did, Governor Young would have been placed in the position of telling a fellow State Executive that he did not believe him; using the intelligent word - a har. We are aware that prejudice of color in the State of Oklahoma is rampant. That its record for mob atrocities would cause Satan to hold his noses to escape the stench of charred human flesh. But all things must have an end. The Governor of Oklahoma promises the sovereign State of California that her courts will deal with fairness. The eyes of not only California, but of the entire civilized world are focused on Oklahoma and should she break her promise, Ed. Glass would become a martyr. Should he come to harm after the assurance given by Oklahoma's Governor the whole government of these United States would stand before civilization as an impotent part in its progress. The great and sovereign State of Californiania trusts the word of Oklahoma. Governor. Should any harm come to Ed. Glass, Oklahoma stands responsible to civilization and California. Sacramento was host to a Conference of the A. M. E. Church. We noticed the presence of a number of eminent theologians—Revs. Ward, Dobbins, Wilson, Hughes and others of the cloth. We had the pleasure of meeting Rev. Dr. J. L. Goolby. The Dr is considered one of the erudite theologians of the Conference. And there were present many eminent women, among them Mrs. Parks, wife of the Bishop; Madames Ward, Hughes, Grasses, Noble, Winters, Congo, Portr, Foreman and any number of faithful women who are the mainstay of the Church. Sacramento proved a generous host. Do you remember that some time ago Georgia's legislature passed a law that no black hand should touch a white skin, even in a shave or a hair cut. But it made no money appropriation for its enforcement. At the best the law was unpopular. So it has "died a-bornin." Seven Western States have, unofficially, declared in favor of the nomination of Al Smith as president of the United States on the Democratic ticket. Ben Davis, Georgia; Perry Howard, Mississippi; National Committee; Walter Cohen, Louisiana; will pool their 70 votes in the Republican National Convention. With the passing of Lincoln Johnson, it will be lots of fun watching the scramble. Watch your Antlers herd. Fraternal sovereignty will be maintained only by "Eternal Vigilance." Panama has passed a very drastic exclusion law. It hopes to maintain a purely Spanish type. The law is drafted to exclude Chinese, Japanese, Turks, West Indians and all dark-skinned peoples. That's like "locking the stable after the horse is stolen." To find a Panamanian unmixed by one of those bloods is like finding the proverbial needle in the hay stack. During the building of the Canal between 30,000 and 25,000 West Indians were employed. The majority of them remained. You know the rest. Have you read Mencken's editorial in the recent number of the Mercury? If not, read it! How some of the thin skinned "Nordics" must squirm. Oh yes! They all read him. He is the most original critic of today. He tells them that instead of Afro-Americans crossing over the line, that they, the "Nordics" have crossed over to meet them. Then he cites the pre-eminence of the "Afro-American" in all of arts from the culinary on. But to enjoy it. It's here now-That American Woodmen dispensation.

BY: DR. J. WINIFORD ROUT THE: ALVEOLAR ABSCESS Just as pain is a warning signal by nature that a part of the body is in danger of destruction, so the abscess is an attempt of nature to wall off certain infections and prevent their penetration into the tissues. Abscesses may occur in any part of the body where infections are present. The type we are discussing today are these occurring about the roots of the teeth commonly known as alveolar abscesses. Alveolar abscesses may be grouped under two headings, namely, acute and chronic. The acute abscess being the extremely painful variety accompanied by much swelling and inflammation in the adjoining tissues is the acute infection is either a very high virulence or the infected tissue has a low resistance to the invading germs, consequently the infection spreads rapidly with much pain and destruction of tissue before nature can throw up a barrier against its progress. The chronic alveolar abscess which usually causing very little pain or discomfort is the most dangerous to the general health of the patient, since it is the localized point of millions of dangerous germs which are constantly throwing their toxins and by-products into the blood stream. A chronic alveolar abscess may result from an untreated acute abscess, an improperly filled root canal, death of the pulp through a blow on the face, etc. The prime reason for abscessed teeth is NEGLECT. Clean teeth do not usually decay and a sound vital tooth will not develop an abscess. An alveolar abscess does not come on without warning, as they may be in the tooth itself or severe pain in the tooth affected—in other words TOOTHACHED, and it is only when the tooth is neglected and the pulp dies that the abscess forms. Of course this does not hold true in all cases as the tooth may decay and the nerve be destroyed by the decay without any pain at all to the patient. Make going to your dentist a habit once or wice each year, have those small cavities filled before they grow larger. If there are devitalized teeth (teeth from which the nerves have been removed) have them radiographed every year or so, that is the surest way to determine if an abscess exists Mrs. Oliver entertained the L.

Miss Dorothy Brown, this surprise, is a nurse at the County Hospital, and was scheduled to arrive late. The guest as they came were let into the room, and the nurses were guished. When Miss Brown came home she did not notice anything unusual until she opened the door. Then imagine her surprise when the lights were turned on, all about her were the smiling faces of her friends. She also had to be informed that she was the honored guest, and the occasion was (?) birthday commemoration. There will be no winter baseball played at Wrigley Ball Park this season.

She was a widow for 43 years. She leaves one daughter, Mrs. Fannie MacDonald, and three grand-children. Sister Bradford was a faithful Christian woman and a devoted church worker and a woman that loved charity work and always found time to do something to help someone.

MOSS (For The Associated Negro Press) [Editors Note: A black face has kept some of the greatest players of the world off the teams of the big leaguers and is keeping them off yet although it is not believed for always. So from time to time we will publish stories of great players who should have been making history along with the McGraws, Johnsons, Mathewsons and others who have brightened the annals of the national game.] It wasn't until the following year, however, that Mendez startled the sport world by the sheer brilliance of his pitching. No other than John J. McGraw, molder of champions, invaded the island with an all-star cast of Brooklyn and Giant players on a barn-storming tour. McGraw's purpose was to bring the mountain to Mahomet, and show the Islanders just how American baseball really looked when played by teams of big league calibre. Well, that was just what Mc didn't do. Christy Mathewson and Nap Rucker, what names to conjure with. Every schoolboy, in the land knows their records by heart. Well, these two titans of the raised mound were the pitchers McGraw relied upon to thoroughly initiate the swarthy Cubans. To make a long story short, Mendez beat the immortal Mathewson in a baseball classic that lasted 10 innings to the tune of 4:3, and two days later turned back Nap Rucker and the big leaguers in a game that went the regulation route by a 2:1 count. No fluke about these performances, the steel armed Mendez simply out-pitched baseball's two heroes. BENNETT Star left fielder may be back on Coast for winter league ball ANNOUNCING!

University of California, 14; Santa Clara, 6. U. C. Frosh, 18; Santa Clara Frosh, 8. Stanford, 33; Fresno State, 0. Stanford, 7; Olympic Club, 6. Oregon, 7; Linfield, 0. Stanford Frosh, 19; Coast Artillery. Space is plentiful but time too scarcce to acquire the data and write the praise due Mr. Norman Hartford who is making the Sports up and take notice in his great work in the L. A. Referee. He is of the younger, ambitious type of writers who writes from personal contact and observation, with his pages embellished with real facts. Editors Go Berman most highly appreciates the work of this popular young authority. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 30. 1927 Along Fisticuffs Row CLAUDE NEAL the enlarged but genial proprietor of the popular cigar and news stand at 12th and Central, has not been seen since last Thursday night when the news came in over his radio "Tuney Wins!" Speculative Claude having already dumped heavily on the Game Fields surprise had bet even his extra pair of sox on Dempsey. When last seen he had his hat in his hand talking to himself and doing the camel walk to Norwalk. YOUNG SAM LANFORD is now in new hands with new plans. Sam's manager George Tittington has sold his contract to Wm. Roberson, manager of Lightning Davis. Mr. Roberson is very conscientious with Sam just as he is with Davis and believes he can pilot him up to the top. He has a number of bouts lined up but especially crives one with Jack Spar or any other of the top notchers. MUSHY CALLAHAN starts training this week. He still expects to carry Baker to the cleaners. RALPH VOLKE famous trainer of Callahan and other champs and near-champs is getting ready for a busy winter. OLD FOLKS WILLIAMS is very proud of his new Chinese boxer Lee. JOE DIAZ is crazy about dancing. He can't talk English but he's a hoof'n fool. Say, it gives him good foot work in the ring. BARNEY DEMPSEY, brother of Jack and boss of Manhattan gym says concerning that 14 count which lost WILLIE HENRY, the famous "Texas Steer" who made a sudden sweep through the Coast last winter knocking out Chevalier and a number of good, big fellows is on his way back from Galveston, ready to clean up the Western heavies, according to a write from his manager, Pat Elzy. He will probably fight in the Wrigley Field—Dundee-Hudkins cards. JOE DIAZ TOPS CARD AT PASADENA Morrie Cohan's new stadium at Pasadena will be the scene of the fourth appearance of the famous, colorful, lightning, fast fighter and boxer Jose Diaz, the champion of Cuba and Mexico. Although Dias was plainly robbed of the decision in his win over Joe Pimenthal in his last battle there his prestige is not hurt because the word of experts who know the game as well as Charley Randolph the referee gave Diaz nine rounds and one even. DUE TO FIGHT KRAMER But for that burn decision the black Spanifard with the fighting smile would be boxing Danny Kramer at the Olympic instead of Johnny Hill. Kramer and Dias fought one of the best toe to toe battles ever seen in Pasadena. It drew a draw decision but Dias had a shade and would have won handily except for an injured hand. A few more bouts here and Dias accompanies his manager Dan Cole back to Nogales, Sonora, where Dan owns the big bull ring and the only big cabaret in Nogales. The card follows: PASADENA—Johnny Lamar vs. Jose Dose, main event, ten rounds. Joe Bailey vs. Twain Mark, semi-windup, six rounds. Ralph Lincoln vs. Joe Mackrill, four rounds. Young Fargo vs. Clyde Yates, four rounds. Bernie Fignerco vs. Jack Haywood, four rounds. 90 GENE TUNNEY World's Heavyweight Champion A "Black Shadow" falls over the shiny belt he is wearing. Godfrey would like to have it and might take it if given a half-way chance. Two Georges At The Main St. A. C., Sat. George Rivers and George Brady will fight the battle of the Georges at the Main St. A. C. Saturday night. Brady is good bait if Rivers is right he should take the other George handily. Another interesting bout ought to be the one between Pee Wee Nolan and the boy the famous photoplay "Chang" was named after. This boy is a Chinese boxer imported by Verry Parker and has a nice string of victories in his kit bag. The whole card reads like this: George Rivers vs. George Brady will fight eight rounds. Bert Mazdan Heen, Mildrane, Bert-wind, up six rounds, Yam Soko vs. Bobby Garcia, six, rounds. Ray Babil洛巴vs. Johnny Crue, four rounds. Dick Chang vs. Pee Wee Nolan, four rounds. GENE TUNNEY World's A "Black Shadow" falls over the Godfrey would like to have i half-way chance. WILLIE HENRY The great Texas Steer DICK DONALD is headed this way accompanied by Joe Dundee. He is taking no chances on his stupendous pugilistic pageant going bloody, thus Dundee running out on the "Cat". He will have the boys start training in public out-door camps on arrival.

SATURDAY AT A·MUS·U THEATRE Central Avenue at Jefferson "Wild-Cat" to be "King Cat After Championship Match at Wrigley Field ACE HUDKINS JOE DUNDEE OCTOBER 29TH All unfortunate bettors who lost money on the Dempsey-Tunney battle at Chicago last week will have a chance to recuperate their losses by pulling a big win when Frank Kerwin, big-voiced announcer turns to the packed grand stands at Wrigley Field and says, "Introducing Ace Hudkins the most sensational fighter in the whole wide world." For Dick Donald, the Rickard of the West and his able assistant Frank, have been working very angle until they have finally secured for Los Angeles the first championship, match in years. Ace offered to fight him for money or marbles, just so he got a crack at the title, so Dundee's wages will be $60,000 and Hudkins $12,500. Max Mayman, manager of Dundee, first asked for $100,000 but Donald asked him if he wanted the chairs too, while Art and Clyde, the clever managers of Dundee, promised that their work for nothing just because Dundee was a so-called champ. The California State Athletic Commission has approved all of Donald's plans even to his price scals, which will range from $2 to $10 for this championship affair. Local faith in Hudkins is such that it will not be surprising to see him a favorite at post time. The seats are ready on sale at 34 Spring Arcade. Johnny Forbes Refuses $1,200 For Herbi Furchi's Contract A sale has just missed going over on one of the greatest little boxers around Los Angeles and who reminisce one of Young Terry McGovern. In action, he has plenty of gameness and has taken care of himself. In the last pre-fights he has taken part in the fight for the title for the past few years was only recently offered by a well known fight manager Twelve Hundred Dollars for Turell's contract, but turned it down flat as he looks so good and thinks UPPER-CUTS & BLOCKS BY: HARRY LEVETTE "DOWN. WITH Boxing!" READS an editorial. PRINTED on the front page of the Sunday's L. A. Examiner. IN MANY words it purports to tell how great a menace and disgrace the sport is to the nation, and says that it must GO! Where we do not question the sincerity or the editor in his beliefs but with the support of millions of brainy men behind us we say he is WRONG. In fact he is doubly WRONG! BOXING is not a menace and it will not go; and it will not be legislated against by the U. S. Congress. Fact is, it were better for our nation if more of our man power acquired the teachings and the physical development that that training in the art of self defense brings to the young men who will take their places at the oars of the ship of state. --- We WOULD like to ask the honorable gentleman a few questions: Were not ancient Greece and Rome, in their great glory when the most attention was paid to their athletic sports? And did not they start downward when such sports were supplanted by conservating ease and luxury with its attendant磊恳ness? Hassn't England always been a boxing nation and isn't it still a great nation? Was Roosevelt a great man? Will not a nation of people who hold self defense as a valued art be always brave in the country's defense when menaced by a foreign power? Roosevelt boxed almost daily and had his sons box. If it were wrong a man like he was would have declared against it. Boxing is supported by the men who furnish the brains of achievement in the United States. The thousands of business men who attend the matches weekly find in them an outlet for the fighting vim and energy that makes them conquer earth, ocean and air to make the United States the greatest of all nations. And a hundred more reasons may be given why boxing should not and will not GO. he will follow in Fidel La Barba's footsteps and go up the ladder of success.

After having the fight in his hands he let it slip through his ignorance of the lilinois boxing rules Gr from being over-excited. The quee- tion of whether Tunney was down for a 13 count has been threshed and re- threshed by the sport critics. The ma jority agree that Tunney was down for a long count. Dempsey would have done what seems the impossible it be had ye Ured to’a neutral corner ‘as soon as Tunney went down, but valuable time was lost by the referee having to point out the corner to Jack. A break Of the fight game decided the fight and Champion Gene got tt. Tunney fought a cool headed fight, playing a waiting game letting Demp- sey charge in and then proceeded to cut him to ribbons with his perfect counter-punch. Tunney is a better fighter than he is given credit for be- ing. Although he doesn’t fight the slashing, spectacular fight of Demp- sey he is great in bis own style. he has a superb defensive style. Gene Tunney may be the champion and Jack Dempsey his nearest cou- tender in the minds of some people but George Godfrey, the black shawod could lick the two'in the same ring the same night. If Godfrey is entered in Rickard's tournament this Spring and is given a fair deal he will be the next heavyweight champion of. the world. ..

Whatev: er may have been the reason, the fact remains that the National is dark and Miss Waters is appearing at Keith's Palace Theatre this week. It is said that every vaudeville ar- tist hopes at some time before he dies or retires from the profession to play the Palace. So Miss Waters, on ber return to the Keith circuit at a top- notch salary, is being honored by op- ening at this coveted Broadway house. ~ Should a Woxer be disqualified for trying to fight with one hand after breaking the other. and should his ‘opponent be disqualified for trying to get to a broken-handed fighter, who through clever foot-work is putting up a wonderful defense?

We haven't heard the returns broadcasted as yet. Dr. Liddell, doctor in title and reali- ity, grabbed himself a handful of shells and an armful of rife and har- ried departed for Arizona in his Dodge, Saturday to try his luck at buck shooting. It's an annual event with him and he usually never fails to kill himself a deer. Here's hoping. Journee White, real estate broker emeritus, financier, and man-about town, so to speak, Diana-ed to River-side the other day to look over and discuss the possibilities of a country club situation. He took his golf clubs with him. Mr. Johnnie Prowd, linotype artist, of the West's great Negro journal, pulled up to the curb of the Eagle last Friday A. M. in a high-powered auto, all smiles. If you remember, it was the morning after the night before, in Chicago. He had plenty of bacon on him. Don't tell anyone we said so, but Sammy Banmann, Manager of Baumann's No. 2 was one sick mortal last Thursday night when he tried to tune in on the Tunney-Dempsey fracas and his radio wouldn't work. He tore out for to get his auto to go to the theater to hear them. It was gone. No one's fault but his own. Don't loan your car till you're sure you don't need it. However he's smiling again as his wife presented him with a boy. John Felix and his Durant surprised 12th and Central last Thursday when they showed up after an absence of over a month. As usual he was all smiles. Harry Levette, the celebrated sport writer and Dr. H. Bell, tooth specialist got together on a Dempsey-Tunney broadcasting proposition which blocked autos, street cars, and pedestrian traffic at 9th and Central. A riot call normalized conditions again, but not until the 10-round had been reeled off. Wallace Clark is still talking of getting an automobile, and his friends still believe him.

The division in inaugurating a poster campaign to educate the public, and the Automobile Club of Southern California is urging members and other motorists to keep their headlights in adjustment. The division of motor vehicles also operates a headlight raiding crew of traffic officers giving special attention to lights on the highways.

Dr. Thompson, the dentist, who has that celebrated Packard sedan, has almost deserted driving in favor of volley ball says Jessie Garrot the detective who has been trailing him. Miss Ivey Washington, a L. A. school man, has acquired a Chrysler coupe if we believe our eyes. At least we accuse ourselves of seeing her in one. Friend Robinson who conducts the Entertainers Cafe on 12th St. was noticed parked in front of a certain tire shop pricing tires following the big fight. Quite a coincident, still we can't accuse him of. But it does look funny. Attorney Fred Mason's wife was some busy person piloting her car through traffic the day Lindburgh came to town. Hat off to her. She's some driver. Miss Biddella Robinson who has been summering at Venice by the sea for several months past is expected to return to Los Angeles and her friends shortly along with her cozy little couple. Welcome stranger, welcome. * * * Clifford Riche's handsome auto is creating almost as much stir at the Bronx as the young man's rich voice, Prof. Palmer and wife of the Cosmopolitan School of Commerce located in New York City.

TRAFFIC OFFICER RECOVERS FROM SHOCK Twas a warm summer afternoon one day last week, traffic was heavy at 9th and Central and the traffic officer on duty. Officer Roseborough was in anything but a normal, happy frame of mind. Suddenly a smart-looking Cad coupe turned adroitly left in the middle of traffic just past the corpse and pulled up sharp along side of the red car going east just in time for the officer to spy him. The driver was immediately taken to task and severely repremanded. "But Officer," said he as he tried to explain away the violation of an important ordinance. "Officer nothing," retorted the policeman. "Your operator's license." Ye gods and little fishes, "I haven't it." "Where do you live that you claim you don't know the law." "Long Beach," weekly returned the offender. After taking the name of the machine, its license number, and loading the ticket, with all the charges possible it came time to hand the ticket to the violator for signing. This feature over the man in the Cad coupe started to drive off but noticed the officer as he put both hands to his head, stumbled and fell. In a moment traffic was blocked and the man in the Cad hopped out to investigate the incident and offer aid. The officer was tenderly assisted to his feet by the crowd and as he spied the man he had just given the tag, he stutteringly exclaimed: "Judge, your h-o-n-or, pardon me but really h-o-n-est-y I didn't know you was Judge Edwards of the Superior Court. I-just didn't. You face seemed familiar but I declare Judge, I just could not organize you." However, the discovered identity didn't seem to help Judge any for he still had the tag attached to him as he resumed his trip to court. Washington, Sept. 17. (Exclusive)—That part of motordom represented by the 390 motor clubs constituting the American Automobile Association moved in a determined fashion today to secure the repeal of the remaining 3 per cent war excise tax on passenger cars in the forthcoming session of Congress. Declaring that the tax is burdensome, discriminatory, unnecessary and archaic, Thomas Henry president of the American called all the members of the national motoring body throughout the country to bring to the attention of their Representatives in Congress the insistent demand of the motorists of the nation that they be relieved of the nation that they be excised at the earliest possible moment. Mr. Henry stated that the determination of organized motordom in the matter of the repeal of the automobile excise tax would be presented to the Ways and Means Committee of the House of Representatives, which will shortly convene to prepare a new revenue bill to give the taxpayers the benefit of the large surplus in the United States Treasury. "We shall ask the Ways and Means Committee," said Mr. Henry, "that the repeal of the tax be made a primary item in the new revenue bill. If the committee refuses to eliminate the repeal, the committee must be prepared to force the issue on the floor of the Senate and the House, precisely as they did when they secured the first reduction in this war levy." He continued: "The position taken by the American Automobile Association as regards the desirability and justice of the abolition of this particular exclivity, which now constitutes a burden of $60,000,000 on the car owners, is indorsed by more than a dozen national organizations, including the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce, the American Farm Bureau Federation, National Grange, Rubber Association 'of America, National Automobile Dealers' Association, National Battery Manufacturers' Association, Automobile Body Builders' Association, National '*' Association of Taxicab Owners, American Drivurself Association, Automotive Equipment Association and Writer and Accessory Manufacturers' Association." The reasons why Congress should repeal the tax were summarized by the A.A. executive as follows: "First the repeal of this tax would benefit the greatest number of tax-payers, since it is now falling on approximately 3,760,000 people, as compared with 2,500,000 people who are subject to income-tax incidence. "Second, it is a needless supertax on motorists as a class, since there is ample evidence that the government no longer needs this revenue. "Third, the tax is discriminatory in that it continues the war levy on a single product which has already paid $1,106,000,000 to the Federal government as a contribution on account of the World War. To single out and penalize one product while every other product, with the sole exception of revolvers, bears no excise tax, is thoroughly inequitable. "Fourth, the tax now constitutes a peace-time levy on one essential mod of transportation, while all other forms of transportation and communication have already been relieved of this war impost. bearing as many forms of taxes on such burdensome taxes as are the car owners. In 1926 the tax levy on them including Federal, State and Municipal was $712,000,000 and the only relief in sight at the moment is from the Federal government, which no longer needs the contribution it has been imposing on them." Rounding Corners Rounding of corners of street to be opened and widened under the Major Traffic Street Plan will greatly reduce the hazard of automobile accidents at intersections, according to Harry A. Lord, president of the Traffic Commission In developing the lines for new streets, the City Engineering Department has followed the policy of condemning a small portion of each corner, so that automobiles will be able to make right-hand turns without swinging into lanes occupied by other machines. "Primarily," Mr. Lord said, "this policy is being carried out to facilitate the turning movements of automobiles, and to reduce congestion along busy thoroughfares. The reduction of accidents, however, is an even greater advantage. "Statistics show that 74.2 per cent of all automobile accidents occur at intersections. It is at intersections where the paths or moving automobiles cross. "When a building is constructed to the property line at a corner, the angle of vision is greatly diminished. The motorist must come almost to a complete stop if he is to be sure that he will not collide with an automobile approaching on the intersection street. The cutting back of the corner will enable the motorist to see approaching cars earlier, and give him that fraction of a second extra time to on his brake, that often means avoiding a collision." My Lord also called attention to the benefits that accrue to the owner of the property. In addition to being paid for the land, condemned, the business property owner will usually construct his building with a corner entrance. This will enable him to attract pedestrians to his establishment from each direction. One large chain-store organization always constructs its buildings with the main entrance at the corner, where most streams of potential customers must pass, Mr. Lord said. "Is the motor car an asset to the church?" "Yes, brother: it brings a good deal of business to the churchyard." TAIL LIGHTING THE PEDESTRIAN TAIL LIGHTING THE PEDESTRIAN Should pedestrians carry front and rear lights for night walking? This moot question has recently been asked of the public safety department of the Automobile Club of Southern California by autoists who declare that pedestrians are generally hard to see when they step out from the curb at night. It is argued by one motorist who is fearful of striking jay-walkers that the pedestrian should be made to carry a lighted lamp of some kind. Automobile headlights do not spot the person in the road quickly enough to avoid trouble, he declares. He also suggests that the walker might carry a light-colored article of some kind, such as a newspaper, which would re-Auto drivers often come perilously Auto drivers often come perilously near striking pedestrians at night because pedestrian traffic control is not in force at night except in the congested districts, it is pointed out. Cutie: "But, Jack, dear, I haven't a thing to wear." Jack Dear: "That's perfectly all right; we'll use the closed car." Although the motorist may scoff at pedestrians, he must admit that most of them die with their boots on. Says motorist to lady who is waving frantically at him to stop and let her pass: We replace broken windows, Automobile glass, Store Fronts, Mirrors of all kinds and descriptions.

Mrs. Davis was determined to attend. Thus the argument started, but it ended with Mrs. Davis in the emergency room of a local drug store where she was carried for repairs after friend hubby had helped her about the body with a razor. Perhaps the most unkind cut of all was that the drug store was in the vicinity of the dance hall and Mrs. Davis could hear the strains from the orchestra while she was being sewed up. KILLS EX-WIFE AND LOVER (By: A. N. P.) Lake Charles, La., Sept. 10—In a double slaying near the city limits, Pearl Goodwill and Allie Mansfield were shot to death.
