GIRL FOUND DYING
Miss Ethel Nemo, 24, of 2223 Hooper Ave, passed away at the Receiving Hospital early Saturday, October 8th as the result of her successful attempt to end her existence, it is reported.
According to the story she told to police when taken to the hospital in a weakend condition, it is said, was to the effect that for the whole day last Friday she had eaten nothing but crackers and Kellogg's Aut Paste. Friday evening, at about 10 o'clock she left her home where she lived with her sister, Mrs. Jessie Fountain, and went to the city dump where she intended throwing herself into the fire, but her pains were too severe and she fell to the ground suffering, where the watchman discovered her. He offered to send her home but she protested stating that she had no home, he then called the police who rushed her to the hospital where she died when they were trying to pump the poison out of her stomach.
The police were unable to get any reason out of her for her rash act, but from their investigation they conclude that she was despondent over her health accompanied with a few other minor worries over which she brooded.
Funeral services were held at Bethel Holmness Church, Thursday, October 13, at 2 P. M.
Elizabeth Bruce New Theatre Organist
Before the opening of the new Lincoln Theatre, one of West Coast's finest and most luxurious movie houses located in the heart of Los Angeles' black American colony, and entirely under race management, came many inquiries as to who would appear before the console of the massive $25,000 Wurlitzer organ. Prophesies came from all sides that this position, so vital a factor in the entertainment, would surely be filled by a man of the other race. Applications from various expert organists of the city swamped the files of Manager Carpenter until he was at a loss as to whom he should select. Finally, upon the recommendation of the Ellsworth Music Shoppe, Mrs. Elizabeth Williamson Bruce was asked to tryout and before she had finished her number, it was all settled in the mind of the manager that she was the "man" for the job.
BARTLETT PUPIL
The daughter of Mrs. Minnie Williamson, Mrs. Bruce comes from one of Los Angeles' pioneer families. She was married three years ago to Joseph Bruce, a native son. After graduation, she went to High, Mrs. Bruce began a special course in organ music under Dean Skolee of U. S. C., who regarded her as one of his prize pupils and predicted for her a great future. She also studied sacred music for a number of years under Prok Elmer Bartlett to whom she gives a great deal of credit for her inspiration and encouragement.
WAS CHURCH ORGANIST
Mrs. Bruce was organist for Phillips Chapel C. M. E. Church for six years; the Independent Church and, at the time of her appointment at the theatre, she was organist at the historic Eighth and Towne A. M. E. Church.
Her success as an accompanist for sacred concerts was climaxed by a series of religious concerts for the Bishops' Council recently held in Trinity Auditorium where she won the admiration or that august body with her soulful interpretation of such well-known number as Buck's Festival Te Deum, Handel's Hallelujah Chopus and our own spirituals which she plays in a most appealing manner.
At the pre-view and dedication of the gorgeous new temple of cinematic art last Thursday evening which was largely attended by film notables and prominent race artists, Mrs. Bruce contributed well to the performance and was complimented by scores of musicians/and music-lover's of the city.
In an interview with the writer, this young woman, with a modesty that was both charming and altogether intriguing, showed much reluctance to discuss either her art or her achievements 'but because we believe that some little black boy or girl with a musical bent may be inspired by her success and above all, her almost uncanny ability for diligent study, we have set forth her story for their benefit.

Charges "Absurd" Declares New York Mayor
New York, Oct. 7.—Mayor James J. Walker, returning here last week, declared that the story he had drawn the color line in a Rome cabaret is entirely untrue and without foundation.
"Absurt," said the mayor, "I was in no cabaret there. I was too much under the influence of the ancient and modern beauty of Rome. It would have lacked in all that is fine in men for me to have forgone these great and splendid works of art for the mere diversion of a night club.
"I went to see the Dolly Sisters in Paris, then I went to a night club in the same city where Josephine Baker of Hak-lem is the principal attraction."
This statement was in addition to the news radioed from the ship bringing the mayor back home in which he denied the affair and said he woud like to know who was responsible for the statement.
Club Women and The Public
Hear Mrs. Johanna Snowden, National Organizer of the National Association of Clored Women's Clubs who will speak at the A. M. E. Zion Church, Pico and Paloma Sts., Sunday morning, October 16th at 11 o'clock. All club women are urged to present an the public is invited.
LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1927
Delegation to A. M. E.
General Conference
At Chicago In
May. 1928
Rev. J. H. Wilson, Presiding Elder of the Southern California Conference had the distinction of election by unanimous vote to head the delegation of his conference to the General Conference which meets in Chicago in May of next year. Rev. Wilson is well deserving, however, of any honor which this body can confer upon him. He is a pioneer church builder and has accomplished more for his church on these Western shores than any other man. His work has been of a constructive nature and to his genius indeed is the crux of the mighty progress of African Methodism in the great West. The Presiding Elder has made a valiant fight at each session of the General Conference for recognition in these parts and his friends and supporters feel that this year he will gain his goal and bring to this city the great Western Christian Recorder which is the organ of the Church for the West and with its coming Rev. Wilson will, as its editor, simultaneously become a General Officer of the Church. With the establishment of this concern in the West under the guidance of this intrpled pioneer, the Church will indeed out-do its wonderful progress and gain a greater momentum than ever before.

Gary, Ind., Oct. 7.—Mob rule won in the recent school fight and Monday morning found Emerson High School "white" with the exception of three Negro seniors and these were found huddled together in the back, with an imaginary line separating them from their white classmates.
The fight began last week when a group of white students walked out of the school because of the presence of twenty-four Negroes. The strike grew until the number of strikers numbered 1,400. For a long time Superintendent Wirt stuck by his guns but Thursday night the City Council gave in to the strikers and formulated a plan of settlement which was in keeping with the desires of those students who had defied law and order and constituted authority.
To meet the demands of the white students, the city lawmakers not only oversee they were accorded the spirit of the law and their weakness, but also voted out $15,000 of the taxpayers money to do so. This fifteen thousand dollars was spent to erect a temporary school for twenty-one of the Negro students, the other three being permitted to remain "providing it was understood that they be assigned to a certain section of the class rooms and would take no part in athletic or social activities."
According to the present plan of the city lawmakers, $1,000,000 will be spent next year to establish a, "Negro unit," which will be established in the Negro section of the town. This plan was opposed by the Negro Alderman, A. B. Whitlock, Samuel R. Blackwell and William R. Burrus, but they along with Superintendent Wirt were snowed under by other members of the council and "outside influence." The colored officers, however, have not accepted the proposals and mass meetings are being held almost nightly. While it is expected that they are fight a losing battle, they intend to fight to he end and much of interest is expected to transpire before final action is taken.
Mrs. Mamie White writes the Eagle that she is enjoying Paris. She further states that the Legion Convention was a unique demonstration of the friendly feeling existing between France and the United States. Paris is a wonderful city, beautiful enough to be the playground of the Gods, and a land in which freedom takes a full, long breath. Even though Mrs. White was winding up her stay at Paris, and moving on to Switzerland, she impressed us that she would not soon forget her visit to the beautiful French metropolis.
ANTI-NEGRO SCHOOL STRIKE IN GARY
ANTI-NEGRO SCHOOL STRIKE IN GARY
BY: WILLIAM PICKENS
(For the Associated Negro Press)
Of course, it is the white parents who are using their children in the Gary school "strike" in order to force the few colored pupils out of the high school. They are doing dirty work through their offspring.
Just as in the South, those who want to oppress the Negro u. the women. When they want to down the Negro in Mississippi, they dodge behind the skirts. But in Gary, Indiana, they are hiding under the diapers.
This is bad training for the young American of Gary. It will help neither their respect for law nor their inclination toward fairplay.
The students could not support a strike without their parents. The young people are ignorant and the parents ar foolish.
St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 8.—Five thous and storm victims have been helped by Poro College, according to reports given out. Saturday morning. Some fifteen hundred are being fed each day at the college and the auditorium has been turned into sleeping quarters for those who were made homeless by the storm which struck this city last week.
Immediately after the tragedy, Mrs. Malone ordered the officials of the college to join hands with those who were seking to help the sufferers and the announcement was made that meals would be served to the victims each day. The first day found more than one thousand homeless men, women and children in line. This number has increased daily.
The spacious auditorium was transformed into barracks and cots placed therein to accommodate one hundred people. Additional cots were placed in the dressing rooms for children.
There is a great need of money in the storm area and St. Louis citizens are urging Negroes throughout the country to help St. Louis in this crisis.
Major Bradden Objects To Segregation of Legion Delegates
New York City, Oct. 8.—Major William S. Bradden, chaplain of the Eighth Illinois Regiment, known during the war as the 370th, has sent a letter of protest to the chairman of the housing committee which placed the delegates to the convention of the American Legion in Paris, France. According to Major Bradden, all of the Negro delegates were sent to one place by themselves and he writes Edwin Thorn, the chairman, that the "mere housing of twenty Negroes in one place is no mere freak or chance, but the result of a well-worked out plan."
Pre-View at Lincoln Theatre Was Notable Occasion
On last Thursday evening the day before the formal opening of the new Lincoln Theatre, in response to invitations by its management, quite 600 persons witnessed the very first run of pictures and the high class performance which was presented on this occasion.
First of all when one entered the large and specious lobby heavily carpeted, with uniform attendants at every hand, they were met by beautiful young women usherits, specially uniformed who directed you to such seats available to your desire. You cast a glance about you and you at once formed the opinion that you were present and snugly encrouched in just about as fine and beautiful a playhouse as it had ever been your entry. Every appointment was perfection including the lighting, drop curtains, draw curtains, draperies, etc.
Then for the performance, the grand ensemble, and a period with "Curtis Mosby's Blue Blowers" was a classic indeed. This incomparable orchestra made good with a vengeance, did also its master of ceremonies, Sir Bobble Williams, if you please. And then there came tits. All Brothers, the boys who made up a trio of just about the niftiest dances which have ever come this way.
From here we saw the famous Doc Strain and his buds the Kings and Queens of Comedy who put on a presentation which took the house of invited guests by storm. Chorus singing and comedy to let and all present were satisfied in the superlative degree.
Doc Straine himself and Sam Russell as comedians made for themselves a home for lovers of real artistic entertainment. Sara Martin's interpretation of the Blues went over great as thunderous applause attested.
Space forbids a detailed mention of each member of a very excellent and pleasing caste.
The picture produced is worthy of special mention.
The large concourse who attended were loud in the praises of Mr. Ramah, the owner of Lincoln Theatre; Mr. Curtis Carpentier, the genial manager, for a delightful evening for the pre-view and visited a theatre outclassed by no other and saw a show which will be very hard to beat.
We congratulate them and the entire staff consisting of Mrs. Elizabeth Bruce, organist; Eugene Jackson, stage manager; James B. Brown, chief electrician; H. Payne, projectionist; Marie Carter, Cashier; Willa Mae Smith, chief usherette; R. H. Pierce, chief superintendent; Fred Cook, Special Officer; Billy Tucker, ticket taker, for a very, very fine evening.
Famous Artists' News Reel To Go Forth From Los Angeles
Pictures of organizations, business efforts worth while and events outstanding by the race, will be taken in moving pictures and shown on the screen in 750 picture houses throughout the country.
This has been made possible by the Famous Artists Company, 121 W. 41st Street, New York City, and will be dedicated as the Famous Negro News, with this great National Company as producers. They have engaged Mr. Van Trevor or Culver City to take upwards of 1000 feet of pictures each week. Mr. Trevor in return has arranged with J. B. Bass, editor of this paper, to arrange for the subjects which are to be presented.
The first subject was the Independent Church of Christ at Recessional last Sunday; on Monday the o ce and working force of The California Barle and The Lincoln Theatre. Next Sunday opening of the Winter Baseball season at White Sox Park.
National Ass'n. For Advancement of Colorored People Going Great Guns
The dinner conference of last Friday evening by the N. A. A. C. P. at Pico and Paloma St. Church, was a notable occasion at which the editor of the Messenger, J. Philip Randolph spoke and the first move made toward financing the National meeting which will be held in this city August, 1928, was inaugurated.
Despite the fact of the grand opening of the new Lincoln Theatre on the campus of the University, were present for the big dinner and more than $700.00 was pledged to the entertainment fund for the National meeting.

THE LURE OF THE SILVER FOX
There are vocations and avocations. Cftimes in these rushing days of life we find men whose daily occupation drain every ounce of their mental energy, turn in their spare time to an occupation that not only relieves and releases the mind but one that serves to replenish and refreshen, not only the mind but the physical man as well. Many times an avocation is taken up not so much for financial gain but as a secret love of that particular line. Few men are engaged in the work of their heart's desire. Many men whose work in life has brought great financial returns, turn at last in the days when relieved from the anxieties of earning a livelihood to the one work that all their life they have felt called to do. There is a joy in doing the work or one's calling that no material gain can recompense. The person is at once changed from a bit of human machinery, doing a thing because it is the only alternative; to a living, fiery, happy soul.
"Tis this change that we note in Dr. J. T. Whittaker of Pasadena that calls forth these few remarks at this time. Dr. Whittaker has for the past ten years practised medicine in the city of Pasadena. During this time he has built up an enviable reputation, so much so that his physical strength has been over-taxed to take care of the demands on his time. Just how Dr. Whittaker happened to become interested in Silver Foxes, we did not think to ask. It must have been some animal life that caused his attention to be directed to this line, for the tone and expression employed in speaking of them tell us that the silver-black fox is dear to the heart of Dr. Whittaker.
Dr. Whittaker's interest in Silver Black Foxes is valued a $30,000. He has a fox farm located near Big Bear Lake. "Tis the valuable Boreston strain, who fur cannot be imitated, and can only be afforded by the princess or the financial world, which is ab sorbing his time and heart these days
In the opinion of M. H. Shelton, I. G. Johnson is the "Mbo" of Los Angeles.
Shelton's opinion, according to active usefulness to our City and adjoining communities and influence for good and benefit to his follower and influence with both-racers; that L. G. Robinson is entitled to the crown. Not to enumerate the many things that Mr. Robinson is daily interested in I will speak of one: The custodianship of the Hall of Records that he and his good assistants so peacefully and ably handle, and President of (Continued on Page Six)
AS we meander along trying to give credit where credit is due. So strong is our desire to see, as you might say, a bulwark of legitimate Negro business; we would build them in printer's ink even as they are already established in our "mind's eye." However we promised to give you the facts in the case and so, even as they are, we now set them forth.
From 12th to 14th St., we find our business activities represented by Pleasant's Barber Shop and Pleasant's Jewelry Repair Shop, 1201 Central Ave.; Brown's News Agency, 1203 Central Ave.; Spike's Bros. and Ellisworth Music Shop, 1203 Central Ave.; McKinney Bros. Electric Co., 1213 Central Ave.; L. A. Dress and Apron Shop, 1211 Central Ave.; Johnson Cigar Shop, 1221 Central; H. Brown, Habedasher, Tailoring and Cleaning, 1223 Central; Murray & Stewart, Bail Bond Brokers, 1225 Central; Pat's Southern Kitchen, 1227 Central Ave.; Rhodes Barber Shop, 1229 Central Ave.; Baumann's Drug Store, No. 2, 1300 Central Ave.; Franklin's Tamale Parlor, 1305 Central Ave.; New AgoDispatch, 1307 Central Ave.; Smith & Williams, 1309 Central Ave.; Little Wonder Cafe, 1213 Central Ave.; Child's Smoke Shop, 1312 Central Ave.; Warren's Gas Filling Station, 1320 Central Ave.; Thompson's Barber Shop, 1208 Central Ave.
"THE Time is NOW!" we conclude. Yes, we have said much. It has always been our policy to speak if by word we might cheer on to higher achievement our own, the stumbling, the weak, in the human race. We have done our mite. Sometimes it has been small but our conscience rests, when we know we have done what we could to relieve those in distress, those who falter by the wayside in the onward, forward march of humanity. Yet there is room! The words of the man who said, "A stitch in time saves nine" burn brightly, giving light to the pathway we choose. To the Negro youth we turn as if by divine hand appointed. To the child in the groping years of life, the years in which he lays the foundation for a full life of usefulness or an empty one of idleness. We see the wonderful possibilities that lay latent, covered over by skins, varying in hue from the softer browns to a questionable shadow, then deeper to a deeper one. They are our all of them. We have neglected them. They have not been lifted u phy us to the pedestal of Encouragement accorded the fairer youth of the land. We have not watched over them with that discerning eye, seeking to draw out all the good that it might overcome their weakness. So it is that in many cases they have become discouraged and failed to achieve many tilings.
To lessen the possibility of the failures in the link of the human chain, we represent; we would strengthen the composition thereof. We would give those that will compose the link of tomorrow a better start than we had. So it is that we come with a timely appeal to the members of our group to stand by the young people in their respective community in their every effort worthwhile. What are they doing? Have they a club or organization? What is the purpose of it? What have they besides their school and church life as a practical occupation of their talents. Help them to find themselves knowing that "He who finds himself loses his misery."
We are going to do our bit to help the child who has ambition enough to want the best things that life offers. It is a great task. We have the plan outlined, but we will need the help of every person in the community. We are asking that everyone will become a booster for the most promising child in their own neighborhood. Select a child between the ages of ten and fourteen years, whose general department speaks a desire of attaining the things most worth while. Choose the busy child, the child who reads much, the child that is a lover of games, the (Continued on Page Six)

and those who were dancing stopped

McADOO "QUITS"
BY: Wm. PICKENS
That's very interesting: to have a fellow "declining" something which nobody is going to oger him. So McAdoo decides not to be nominated on the Democratic ticket for President of the United States—and nobody has ever yet decided that he ever could be nominated.
And yet he decides to "quit." That is like the man who shouts back: "I resign!" after he has been emphatically told: "You're fired!"—Perhaps later we may hear that Cole L. Blease, of South Carolina, has decided not to be President of France.
But McAdoo "withdraws." Well, everything means something else; nothing is absolutely meaningless,—not even in the words and deeds of an ordinary politician. And so, there is some meaning in this action and these queer words of McAdoo. It means that the McAdoo crowd have decided on that course as about the only way in which they could hurt the chances of Governor Alfred Smith of New York. They mean to hint: "Now, since McAdoo has declined something which he cannot get,—it's up to you, Governor Smith, to decline something which you have at least some chance to get." McAdoo withdraws for "party harmony." That is supposed to hint that if Smith stays in the race, he will be responsible for all the party disharmony, as if there was ever any real harmony between northern and southern Democrats, since the days of Stephen A. Douglas. They have compromised and pulled together at times—like those who "compound a felony," but there can be no real harmony between the type of civilization represented by Alfred Smith and that supported by McAdoo—none between Democratic decency and Democratic Kurism.
We have not yet decided whether we want either one of these Democrats for President,—but we have long ago decided that, as between McAdoo and Smith, we would choose Smith a thousand times before we ever thought of McAdoo.

Pasadena Notes
BY: Wm. MATT SOLOMON
Next Sunday at $ P. M. the installation or the officers of the Brotherhood and Euzellian Classes will be held in the auditorium of Friendship Baptist Church. The occasion is the launching of the winter campaign under the leadership of Mr. J. H. Stokes as president. The installation sermon will be preached by Rev. Dr. Middleton a speaker of much renown and the event is looked forward to with much interest inasmuch as a majority of the men are interested in this project. A feature of the program will be a solo by Capt Wm. Reynolds.
. . .
The choir of the First A. M. E. Church is undergoing a radical change since the return of their choir leader, Mrs. Cora Morrow who has very recently, returned from an extensive visit in the East visiting parents and friends. Without an exception Mrs. Morrow is in an exceptional class as a musician and with the addition of new members and taking on of new life among the older ones of the Choir a master organization is looked for.
There is nothing new under the sun as you will readily agree when we mention the house to house bootblack stand that is operated in Pasadena housed in a Ford. Regular calls are made where service is cheerfully given and Craddock reports a thriving business.
Dr. J. T. Whittaker certainly believes in the Oldmobile, having gotten more than satisfactory mileage out or his Coupe, has purchased the latest model, in a Brogham, of a dark green, fully equipped, the latest creation in automobile.
The Senior Missionary Society of Friendship Baptist Church, under the leadership of Mrs. Eva Burton is certainly fostering a progressive program. Mrs. Burton is an ardent church worker and needs no introduction in Mission activities.
The Tri-County Convention met in Riverside at the Second Baptist Church on Wednesday and Thursday. Rev. Frank Cooper is Moderator of this district.

An. "Old Clothes Day" is being inaugurated by the members of the Friendship Baptist Church when all cast-off clothing will be assembled on a certain day before the scheduled rally and then disposed of to augment the required amount. This proposition has its originality with the pastor who is very progressive in advancing new ideas. The Fall rally is looked forward to as being quite successful.
On last Tuesday Mrs. Eva Over Solomon was the principal speaker at the Semi-Annual Union 'Services of the Evangelical Churches of this district in Holtenbeck Heights. The attendance was large and very enthus

The "A Square Social Club" under the guiding influence of Earl Grant as President is fostering many social events for the coming season. This organization is only in its infancy but has already been the source of much enjoyment for the social set. Mr. Earl Grant has but recently come to Pasadena, nevertheless his presence is greatly felt not only socially but commercially being associated with his brother in the wholesale rubbish disposal business and is also a director in the Dayton Street Hall Co., a new innovation in Lasadena enterprises which is rapidly forging to the front
A movement is on foot to consolidate the Hiram and Jewel Masonic lodges which would work a mighty miracle along Fraternal lines as neither of them individually is strong enough to put over anything big. This contention which has been going the rounds for some time but because of the influence of some of the charter members of both lodges failed in its efforts, now seems more of a certainty. The matter of office seeking has heretofore hampered the project but younger blood has been infused into the ranks with more progressive ideas which lends much inspiration to the movement. They have met for years in the hall at Dairy and Fair Oaks but since the acquiring of the new Dayton Hall have moved to those quarters which are more elaborate and convenient.
WERE OUR ANCES TORS JUNGLE FOLK?
BY: DRUSILLA DUNJEE HOUSTON
(For Associated Negro Press)
We will not carry more of the story of WONDERFUL ETHIOPIANS, the book which is receiving such favorable comment in our great Negro weeklies but Mrs. Houston will conduct this department, giving us the richest fruit of her farthest study of the Ethiopian in Africa and the New World. She has five completed manuscripts. Three on the Ethiopian of the Ancient World, and there will be three on the Ethiopian of the Ancient World, and there will be three on the Ethiopian of modern times.
She contends that no modern book can give justice to race traits and tendencies without knowledge of the primal roots from which these characteristics sprang. The PITTSBURG COURIER in its review column makes exactly this criticism of the book on the African Ethiopian that are considered absolutely authoritative but my heart ached as he accurately painted traits of the African ruined by the WHITE slave traffic. He wrote without the background of the great Ethiopian nations BEHIND that ruin. His books therefore harm the race.
"I was talking with a great race leader recently, and he said, "Always in my heart was the belief that we had a great ancestry, but I could not prove it. That belief gave me my ambitions and perhaps made me what I am. My daughter returned from College bringing her sociology, and I sat down to read it. It said that the Negro race had always been a BACKWARD race and that we had always been hewers

of wood and drawers of water, and I
thought to myself. This white text
is forced on our children and we are
compelled to send them to school and
if we ever teach them anything else
it will have to come out of our own
race. This book WONDERFUL
ETHIOPIANS is what we needed."
It was this thing that set me to work searching for the materials in the book WONDERFUL ETHIOPIAN. In the school room I discovered that the Negro boy is full of high ambitions up to a certain age. Then one day the iron of the untruth of white books against the black race enters his soul. The thought comes to him with blasting lightning stroke. None, of these fine beckoning rewards that history and literature are for me. We meet him a little later upon the street, out of school, TOUGH is beginning to write itself in his face. I believe in the black boy, and I determined to seek the truth first for them.
If it took a lifetime, they should have the FACTS that would cause them to SQUARE their shoulders and look into the faces of other races with the knowledge that they were MEN. Too long had some types of the race because of untruthful teaching about their race, cringed and crawled at the feet of white people, a race with an inferior ancestry. Learned whites here say that it is scientifically proved in WONDERFUL ETHIOPIANS that civilization sprang from the black race. Prejudiced whites say, "No Negro woman wrote that book, the race could not produce a book so correct in contents and technical make-up. "SO THE WAR GDES ON."
L. A. FORUM TO BOOST AVIATION
Recognizing the imperative need for the youth of our race to qualify along the rapid progress of the aeroplane the Los Angeles Forum on last Sunday went on record as endorsing the movement to mobilize a class of at least 50 of our youth to qualify as pilots for air service.
The Forum therefore will stand sponsor for this movement and asks all of our various religious, civic and fraternal societies to assist in this movement to the utmost. They have appointed a special committee on Aviation, consisting of J. B. Bass, T. J. Norris and G. W. Fields.
The school has been selected which is a high grade and highly competent one and the class is being recruited. All who are interested will do well to get in touch with the members of this committee.
The regular meeting of the Smart Set Club met at the home of Mrs. Fanny Smith on Monday evening. The meeting was well attended, all were very busy preparing for our 3rd annual Fall Prolic to be begiven soon. After the usual business Mrs. Smith served the girls with delicious freshments. After a delightful time, the meeting adjourned to meet at the home of Miss Virginia Taylor next week.

SILVER FOX CLUB
The members of the Silver Fox Club were jubilant and somewhat surprised at their last meeting. The reason for this surprise was the unannounced return of Mr. Willis Dudley, a former member who has been residing recently in the northern part of the State. Mr. Dudley, it is easy to remember, was one of the most popular of Junior Clubmen. Right at this time after the Silver Fox has, for various reasons, been laying low, it doesn't appear unusual that the pack should feel excitable at the short return of the leader. The Silver Fox Cox was until quite recently one of the outstanding Junior Societies in the city. What they gave was usually conceded to be O. K. They have been able, awaiting apparently the return of the leader, he's back now, good people, and perhaps before he leaves he will leave with them that courage that will enable them to step out and retrieve their weakened prestige with the public.

Mr. A. Philip Randolph spoke be fore the Business Girls Club, Thurs day at 6 P. M., and was very enthusiastically received. Mr. Randolph's speech, Oct. 2nd at the Lincoln Theatre on behalf of the Pullman Porters was a sensation and the Business Girls were glad of the opportunity to get Mr. Randolph to speak before them.
The first game of the Football season took place Sunday, Oct. 2nd, at Snyders Field, between the Merry Makers (winners of last year's cup) and Nil Nisi Bonum Club, before more than five hundred eager spectators. It was a red hot, fiercely-fought game, and altho the N. N. B's went down to defeat by a 19-7 score, they proved themselves hard working boys, glorious in defeat. The only touchdown for the N. N. B's, was made by Longzon Allen, Townes making a 21 yard run in the third quarter, and Townes running to a touchdown for the M. M. while Bryant (Red) proved himself the hero of the day by his ability to catch the ball and hold it. "Red" received the plaudits of the crowd when he made a touchdown for the M. M.
Nert Sunday the La Premiers and the Wilshire Olympics will do battle the royal at the same field.
St. Agnes Guild is planning many jam-up affairs for the very near future. Watch this column for date, etc in all probability the race students were their superiors mentally. And yet all students are taught the Constitution of the United States, which is wonderful if carried out.
The Lone Wolf Club's monthly social meeting Wednesday, Sept. 27th was a decided success. Club meeting was first carried on by Mr. Jordan, President, while the girls played whis and hearts. Dancing to the strains of the syncopated piano player was the order of the evening. Mr. Andrew Thomas introduced Miss Melba Allen, graduate of the Chicago College of Music Miss Allen is an accomplished musician and rendered several selections during the evening.
The Lincoln Theatre opened with a "bang," October 7th. Crowd! That can hardly bring to mind the number of people who crowded the streets, jostled each other good naturedly and patiently waited in line for their tickets at the box office. And when they got in. What a marvelous structure—likened unto the Metropolitan downtown. And the show—the comedians weep good, Sara Martin (Okey Record singer) was jam-up, the ususal standard which is 100%, and Mr. Henry Starr sang with his sofe beautiful voice.——BUT——(we now take a great big breath) the chorus wasn't up to scratch. It isn't that we nee prejudiced because we think Los Angeles is better, but because something seemed to be lacking in that chorus—that while it was good it could have been better. On the whole the show was a tremendous success and we hope that it will continue to go over big.
The game at Snyder's Field, Sur Jay
Oct. 9, 1927, between the Wilsi riya
Olympic Club and the La Premières
was a very loosely played game. Some
thing seemed to be lacking in their
team work and while they played
hard, fumbles were greatly in evi-
dence. Kelly of the Wilshire Olympics
is worthy of note. He recoverd a
fumble and struck out toward the La
Premières goal; but after making 40
yards he collapsed. Score 0-0.
Next Sunday, October 16th, the Wils
shire Olympic and Merry Makers will
do their stuff.
Heard at the Lincoln Theatre:
He: "Is she the leading lady?"
He: "Is she the leading lady?"
She: Uah guess so. She's three measures ahead of the orchestra now."

(For the Associated Negro Press)
‘St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 3— great val
ley of death and destruction was cut
through the heart of the residential
and business section of St.Louis last
Friday afternoon by a torundo that
struck with sudden and appalling fury.
The first checkup of the devastated
district disclosed a death list of which,
nineteen are Negroes, Tie toll will
be doubled by fatalities ameng those
eritically injured, and of 1,172 known
injured 125 were. colored.
Bstimates of the property damage
are placed approximately at $100,000,
000, according to, Building Comntiss-
ioner Christopher, where members of
our group owned beautiful homes, and
along Cook Avenue and West Belle
Place, from Sarah Street to Pendle-
ton Avenue, nearly every house in that
district was rendered uninbabitable,
if not dangerous. Many were but piles
of brick,
It was @ pitiful sight to sce people
tramping through the strcets in_ the
rain, carrying their personal effects
in their arms, seeking refuge for the
night.
Probably one hundred bodies were
recovered gm wreckage in that area
and there are as many more it is
thought under the twisted mass o!
brick and mortar,

THE MIDTOWN MUSEUM
Electricity in Los Angeles No.4 In the Office Building
THE ROOSEVELT BUILDING cost $3,500,000. It is one of the newest and largest office buildings in Southern California. It is a Class A, fireproof, limit-height building (12 stories, basement and two sub-basements), containing 750 offices from the second to the twelfth floors, inclusive.
The four upper floors were designed and equipped especially for the needs of doctors and dentists.
Parking problems for Roosevelt Building tenants are solved by a completely equipped garage, with space for 450 cars, which occupies the first and second basements.
Nine high-speed, variable voltage passenger elevators furnish rapid service in the Roosevelt Building. Freight elevators are, of course, available.
Extensive electrical equipment is needed in the operation of the modern office building and the service of its hundreds of tenants.
The Roosevelt Building, thoroughly equipped in all particulars, uses:
1400 horsepower of electrical energy for lighting.
1400 horsepower of electrical energy for lighting.
375 horsepower of electrical energy for supplying power to the X-Rays, Heating Units and Dental Units of doctors and dentists. One such X-Ray apparatus, the largest in the city, is supplied by a special electric line direct to the instrument.
9—35 horsepower motors generator elevator sets.
235 horsepower of electrical energy exclusively for special dental and medical apparatus.
The modern office building is a hive of industry. It houses representatives of numerous professions and varied lines of business. Its electric needs, and those of many of its tenants, are often exacting and specialized. It must have efficient and dependable electric service.
We consider it a mark of approval of the high quality of our electric service, that the owners of the Roosevelt Building chose Los Angeles Gas and Electric Corporation to supply the electric service needs of this fine structure.

THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE COMMENTS CARE OF THE TEETH
The police department it seems is constantly a whirligig affair, as the shifting of Captains L. L. McClary and Lyons from the vice squad after just getting down to brass tacks on their new assignment.
To a layman the whole affair is dazzling and confusing as well. We are principally interested in the stability of things and a sincere effort as we verily believe Captains McClary and Lyons put in vogue for the suppression of crime. It is hard for us to understand the ever present policy of constant and mysterious shifting of highly competent, courageous and efficient officials.

Down at the Bay City of Santa Monica there has been holding forth this week more than 2000 delegates from all parts of California known as the State Convention of Real Estate men. This is but natural with the tremendous growth of California the problem of buying and selling real estate is such that only by organization can any result in keeping with the fair name of California be obtained.
We are now thinking of the army of realty men within our group and the thought is what are they doing along the line of concentration and organization. If the dominant group with all of its power and wealth finds it expedient for a State-wide organization it is aparent if our realtors get anywhere they should at least have some semblance toward co-operation.

We are fatigued at the sight of narrow, selfish and ignorant persons who essay for leadership in this community. Fronting up to catch the eye of the white politician is a favorite pastime just now and the pity of the situation is that they fail absolutely to make headway with the masses, but leading divines, business and professional men will allow themselves to be invigiled and readily allow their names to be used by these parasites in their quest for the coin of the realm with services based purely on hot air. This gentry will come in for a general exposure as the idees of another campaign approaches.

This act of Mr. Ramish should and no doubt will be appreciated by all fair-minded people, regardless of race or creed to the highest degree. We trust that this act upon his part will not be in vain, and that he will in patronage receive a fair return for his investment. Our highest appreciation goes for the fact that he has opened the door of opportunity on these Western shores for our group along the lines of amusement as well as for the delectation of the public.
Thus far the presentation of the Lincoln Theatre and its first show has met with the universal acclaim and no worth while criticism except constructive have we heard.

Oftimes the editor is called upon to shoulder arms and fight out battles of selfish interest for individuals, of course he would not under any circumstance enlist knowingly in any such proposition. For this reason when we are asked to publish matter of public or semi-public nature, we require the article to be contributed and signed. It was in this situation which we accepted the paid reading article from J. H. Sykes in our last issue and of which the secretary of the Heflin Manufacturing Co. complained violently so. Therefore if any concern has fault to find they have a line on the person who assumes all responsibility for Mr. Sykes not only signed his name but had us to run his cut with the article.
So all along downthe line we allow all renutable persons to state their case. Only recently we ran a serial on Lower California, a corporation. The serial was signed by those responsible for the same and we could not and would not deny those responsible of the opportunity to state their case.
Of the Heffin Company or Lower California, we have no quarrel and both have our best wishes. We can only hope that those at the head of either will eschew the small, petty things and do business just like business men should. You cannot get away from the fact that real and lasting success can only be gained by standing straight up and seeking progress on a broad gauged and liberal platform in which honesty plays the stellar role.
If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened

The daily papers carried the news of the passing of a noted character of Aframerican race, "Blind" Boon, who died at his home, Warrensburg, Mo. October 4th, after a heart attack. He was a musical genius, reproducing on the piano any selection, however difficult, after hearing it but once. It has been stated that he born in a federal army camp; his father being a drum major in the Northern forces during the war of Columbia. A memorial by the genius of Boone, and it was under his management that for a period of 36 years, Boone toured the world. He was not born blind, but it was caused by a severe fever in his sixth year.
Politics is beginning to get on the first pages. In the Mayoralty fight in San Francisco a near scandal was precipitated by a couple of unsophisticated political tyros who tried to emash that astute veteran of many political battles, Sheriff Thomas J. Finn Everybody had a good laugh, for whenever the Sheriff can be envisaged into putting his foot into a trap so crudely set, you can cover the entries State of California with a canopy and run up the sign, "Asylum for Idiots." Mr. John H. Taylor says, "Power cannot lose." Nine times out of ten he is right.
Powers believes that two terms are enough for any mayor. He says, "consider the mayoralty the highest honor within the gift of San Francisco voters. I am in accord with the statement of President Coolidge that this is not a one-man country; that there are available men of ample brains and ability to serve the nation." And we add, San Francisco has hun dreds of citizens with ample brain; and ability to serve her, and James E Powers is one of them.
The conference between the states interested in the Boulder Dam project is progressing, and the muted hydro electric barrier seems in a fair way to be surmounted. The conference will resume probably in Sacramento. Daring the debates on the Johnson-Swing (Bouled Dam) bill, the press of the country carried the report that a representative of the Bond and Share Co. N. Y. said, "I represent $7,000,000 and we do not propose to let the Government enter the power business at Boulder Canyon." On the floor of the U. S. Senate, February 2, Senator Hiram W. Johnson said, "After what we had done what the Secretary of the Interior demanded we should do, after what we had wrote into this bill what he asked should be written into it, then come $7,000,000,000 into the city of Washington and say, "The Government of the United States shall not be permitted to do anything except what 7 billion dollars say it may do." I repeat to you, sir, the challenge was not ours. I say to you that when a challenge comes to me as a Senator and the United States and the challenge says that the people whom I represent must drown in the Colorado unless those 7 billion dollars shall be swollen to more billions, I accept the challenge, and I accept it upon the floor of the Senate and the Government of the United States, and I leave to the deceency, the honor, the courage and manhood of United States Senators to say whether $7,000,000,000 shall prevail in this government or whether men, women and children shall prevail in it." That sounds like the same "Henry of Navarre" whose plumed crest waved in the van two decades ago when leading the onslaught against corporate control of California. The building of Boulder Dam is necessary to progress in industry; necessary to the fertilization of desert wastes and compulsory for the safety of human life.
The Formal Opening of Wilkins Piano Acad emy Was a Grand Success
The music rooms were artistically arranged and beautifully decorated with large baskets and bouquets of cut flowers.
At one o'clock in the afternoon the many music lovers and friends of the Wilkins Piano Academy began the almost endless chain of visitors. After visiting the various studios used daily for teaching, the guests were escorted to the beautiful Birkel Art Room by members of the reception committee, consisting of a part of the faculty. After viewing this wonderful room especially equipped with a $1,200.00 Stecch grand piano compilatory material, Prof. Wilkins by the Birkel Music Company thanked the courtesy of Mr. Edward G. Geisler vicepresident and manager, the guests were invited into the kindergarten department where they were served dainty refreshments by another part of the school's staff. The main floor of the building was uniquely decorated in fall colors and the visitors, teachers, and pupils mingled and danced to the strains of the orchestra until past midnight.
Mr. Wilkins and his wonderful staff of teachers are indeed to be complimented as this was one of the most unique affairs of the season. The Steck piano was placed in the studio of the Wilkins Piano Academy as a token of appreciation for the wonderful work Mr. Wilkins is doing among both white and colored students. Among the many compliments given Mr. Wilkins in an interview with manager Geisler, he stated, "We

PREVENTIVE DENTISTRY
In an Egyptian papyrus, written
about 3,000 years before Christ and
discovered in 1872 in the ruins of
Thebes, is found the first recorded
advice on the treatment of dental ills
Throughout the ages the literature of
all peoples has told of the uses and
the troubles of the teeth.
In this country, dentistry in its
earliest form was practiced by an
altruistic soul, who, whatever his real
vocation might have been, thought he
could have been a dentist. This
beginning dentistry has developed
into a highly specialized profession
requiring specific training and standards
of its members.
Until recent years Dentists were mainly concerned with the replacing of lost teeth and the repair of damaged ones. Within the last few years, comparatively speaking, the pendulum has swung from separation to prevention. There is no justification for the present-day conditions which exist in the mouths or the people of America. Fully 80 per cent of our adult population have defective teeth; a larger percentage of our school children have diseased mouths—fully 90 per cent. Ravages like this should never have been developed, would not have developed, had people known the fundamentals of preventive dentistry. Dentists are now emphasizing a type of dental service which embodies as its main feature prevention rather than the cure of dental fills. Dentists alone can never bring about the millennium of cavityless teeth, for many people never go to a dentist, while still more do not go until it is too late—late the tooth or teeth are badly decayed. Therefore, there must be a better understanding and a keeper interest in tooth truths on the part of every individual if our children and our children's children are to have better teeth and better health.
John Quincy Adams, when asked how he accounted for his vigor in old age, replied the he followed three rules: First, regularity; second, regularity; third, regularity. Speaking of teeth also, regularity is the factor which determines whose teeth you will be wearing when you are 40. This regularity begins with the expectant mother. Her rest, diet and exercise should be regular in order that her child may be strong and well. Teeth begin to form during the third month of fetal life and their caliber is determined by the mother's care. Later, regularity in diet, with daily consumption of milk and the dairy products, fruits, vegetables and whole grain cereals, regular cleaning of the teeth, brushing down on the upper teeth and up on the lower; regular visits to the dentist, beginning when the child is about two and one-half year old and continuing until the grave—these are the factors in preventive dentistry over which every one has control and which will minimize dental disease.

"A MAN OF JOYS"
(Continued from Last issue)
His principle goes on. "He was a delightful man to live with, full of humor, never taking offense, always looking on the bright side of things. He was devoted to his people and country and was unsparing of himself. Men sometimes said he was conceited" (he had a true pride in his ancient race in West Africa and could trace back his ancestry through his father to the eleventh century, while through his mother he could claim five West African chrones) "but though he had conceived, it was never offensive, never at the expense of others. There was no egism in Aggrge. When he enjoyed himself, he brought all other into his enjoyment. He shared himself. He was a great human being, a friend to men, and interested in all of them, and always kindly. I have had many good things in life, but one of the best is being allowed to know Aggrge into and well."
Though he was ever bubbling over with joy, things did not always go smoothly with him, not only because of the daily friction that, alas, is still the lot too often of a man of African lineage mixing with white men of every nationality, but because of the even more hard to bear misunderstanding with which he was sometimes men by his own people.
Some of them have had no patience with his whole-hearted preaching of co-operation with the white race, and his participation in such work as that of the two Phelps Stokes Fund Educational Commissions to East and West Africa, which so much widened his field of service and activity. During the past three years at Achimota, it was often heartbreaking to him to have to deal with the prejudices of some of his own race to this scheme in which he saw so clearly the opportunities not only for giving them the best in western learning, but the chance of a really full development of all the most in Africa's ancient culture. Added to this was the hardship of having to see Els wife go back to America to be with the elder children and to tend the baby son, now nine months old.
"Only a real faith that lifted him above himself could have sustained him during the past three years," writes Sir Gordon Guggsberg, the late Governor of the Gold Coast, most successful of Britain's administrators, and practical idealist. "And he had that faith, the faith of a genuine Christian. The essence of Aggrye was that he was an African, undisturbed by his western education or his long sojourn and brilliant scholastic career in the United States." (He won his Ph. D. and D. D. at Columbia University, besides holding ten other degrees.) "He clearly saw that changes must come," Sir Gordon continues, "but he felt that these must not alter his people's personality, spirit and character as Africanans. It was on this task, brimming with ing in long and impassioned speeches that he started in the Phelps Stokes Commission. It was his task he continued when he came to Achimota. It was for this task—for my people who want me' that he refused high advancement and considerably greater salary in an American University.
"No trouble was too great for him. No help that he could give was ever refused. Aggrey was the finest interpreter which the present century has produced of the white man to the black, and the black man to the white. It was to the better understanding by the one of the other to which he devoted himself. Who that heard him will readily forget his smile of the white and black keys of the piano both being necessary for melody?" "You have," this little tribute closes, adding thus a direct personal touch, "laid the foundations for the road along which your beloved Africans are marching."
White and black keys! There is an echo of the melody in Aggrey's own life in these words of a British Governor, the melody of mutual service and understanding.
Many of Aggrey's attribute has come from men and women of all degrees. All strike the note that it is joy and helpfulness and understanding which they chiefly associate with their memory of Kweezy Aggrey.
"This one thing I am most proud of," he wrote to me in June last, "is my conversion to Christianity, and the great spiritual help I daily have from my communion with God." He added, with that touch of childlike simplicity which was so real in his great heart, "God and I are on good terms. He understand me and makes me work harder every day to reach His standard for me, because, wonderful to relate. He has so much faith in me. I pray in deep humility I may never disappoint him."
A man of joys and acquainted with laughter, a man of hope and forward looking thought, an interpreter, a recoulier, these are the happy memories we have of Kwegyir Aggrey, son of Africa.

I dare say that not one other Race man in the Southwest has caused to be paid in salaries to our Race the amount that Mr. Robinson has. I dare say he know not, or hasn't thought of it himself. But we can rest assured that the amount will exceed these figures: $3,382,500.

Entertain at Breakfast Randolph of N. Y.
BY: MATTIE MAE STAFFORD
The Presidents' Council gave an unusual breakfast Friday. Morning, October 7, at La Republica Tea Room, honoring Mr. A. Philip Randolph, General Organizer of the Brotherhood of
Sleeping Car Porters, and Mr. Ashley L. Totten, Assistant General Organizer. The beautiful tea room was a garden of flowers and breathed an air of refinement and good taste. Mr. and Mrs. Gray spared no pains in making this, a grand affair. Mrs. Elizabeth Edwards, sectional president of Colored Women's Clubs was Mistress of Ceremonies. Mrs. M. G. Palton remained standing after the guests were seated and offered thanks. Mrs. Edwards introduced Mrs. Ettar B. Moxley, Past State President and she in brief gave the history of the California Federation of Colored Women's Club and their property holdings. Mrs. Mabel Massengill of Chicago rendered two vocal solos and proved a singer of rare ability. Dr. Eva Whitting Young was accompanist.
The Mistress of Ceremonies introduced Mrs. Mattie Mac Stafford, Supt. of Education and Literature of California Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, who introduced Mr. George S. Grant, real estate dealer and Secretary-Treasurer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Perters of the Los Angeles Division. Mr. Grant then introduced Mr. Ashley L. Totten and he in turn introduced Mr. A. Philip Randolph, who gave a lecture on "Economic Freedom and Co-operation."
The writer finds her vocabulary too limited to give this intellectual giant what is due him as a great man and a orator. There is great hope for a race to produce a man like Philip Randolph. "Council was happy to pay honor and respect to such a noble character.
At the close of the breakfast Mrs. Monroe Bravers, president of the Council presented Mr. Randolph with a bandcane Bill Folder with his name engraved on it in gold letters.

Says Watson Burns Is
World's Greatest
Billiardist
New Rork, N. Y., Oct. 7. (By A. N. P.)—Writing of the great Hutchison tournament to begin here next month, Alvin J. Moses Watson Burns, of Los Angeles, Cal., owner of the largest pool room of that city and manager of Mack House and Sailor Larry, as the greatest billiard and pool artist up till the present time. Moses says:
"Harking back to the days of "Bam" of Chicago, "Old Forks" who represented this city in the 18-2 Balkline Tourney staged by W. H. Willis, head of the Colored Amateur Billiard Association of Greater New York back in 1912. Haney, Kurby, and the great Watson Burns, this city hasn't entertained a high class billiardist at this style of play since that period. Burns, who holds a record of three thousand consecutive markers at the old fashion style of straight rail billiards, was unable to accept the offer of Willis to tournament; but the rest of the field, played nightly a brand of billiards that gave great praise from such keen students and Mr. Benjamin, personal representative or champion Hoppe at that time."
Mr. Hutchinson promises to revive interest in Bowling and billiards as this city has nayer witnessed before. There will be weekly "Round Robin Tournaments" commencing from November 3, 1927, between Madison, newspaper men, theatrical performers of both sexes, and the various social workers and their units.

Andy Bowen Figured in Longest Glove Fight in Boxing History; Was Killed by Kid Lavigne
BY: ALVIN J. MOSES
(For the Associated Negro Press)
The longest glove fight in the history of Boxing was that between Andy Bowen, famous colored Louisiana boxer, and Jack Burke. For more than seven hours these two great exponents of the art of miss and connect fought out it tee to toe on hundred ten rounds being contested in all, according to Marquis of Queensberry rules. It was held April 6, 1893, at the Olympic Club, New Orleans, La.
BOUT WAS DECLARED "NO CONTEST"
After seven hours and nineteen minutes of pler six battling without the slightest letup, the referee rendered a verdic of "No Contest." It was hardly one to one, the superiors who fight the scaled an enemy 134 pounds each and lost close to nine pounds each during the progress of their epic struggle.
WAS KILLED BY KID LAVIGGNE
On December 14, 1894, at the Auditorium Club, New Orleans, the amphitheatre where many of Bowen's best fights were held, he met what was termed by a coroner as an "accidental death." Kid Lavigne, then world's champion lightweight boxer, had been challenged by the formidable colored boxer and was there that evening in defense of his highly regarded honors. Throughout the full duration of the battle that lasted eighteen rounds, Lavigne played with Bowen. The colored gamester took a fearful whipping but stood his ground like the spartan he was. At the start of the eighteenth and final round that not only spelled a knockout for Bowen, but it was to usher him unceremoniously into the presence of his Maker, his face was swollen beyond recognition, and his left eye was closed tight as a wedge. A right to the jaw knocked Andy to the floor, his head coming in contact with the unadded pooring with a crash that brought the patrons to their feet almost as one single unit.
Bowen's skull was fractured, causing concussion of the brain, and thus died one of the smartest, most durable, and best loved fighting men, white or black, the world has ever seen.
"No Colored Man Will Get Chance at Title," Declares Tate
Winston-Salem, N. C., Oct. 8. (By A. N. P.)—"No colored heavyweight will get a chance at the heavyweight title," was the declaration made by Big Bill Tate here Friday evening in a conversation with an Associated Negro Press representative
The big battler further avowed that he could whip either Tunney or Dempsey, but was loyal to the Manassas Mauler, whom he trained for many of his bigest lights. Concerning Harry Willis, Tate said the white people had "built up the Brown Panther because they knew that he was no good."
The articles then goes on to give the names and values of various heavy weights who are supposed to be controlled by the trust, but no colored heavy is included in the imposing list, although many foreigners grieve the foster.
Feather Tourney

Joey Sanger, Bud Taylor, Red Chapman, Benny Davis and Honeyboy Finnegan may light out the featherweight title contest in competition with the best 18-pounders on the West Coast if the plans of Jimmy Murray of Culver City are carried out successfully.

THE "CAT" HAD BETTER SHARP- EN HIS CLAWS
COLORED BOXERS ON WRIGLEY CARD
Ace Hudkins, the famous Nebraska Wild Cat, witnessed all the vitality of a Cat, his fine fixes and all the tipping, fearing anger of his views, to off the thunderbolt attacks of the determined Italian boy, Joe Dundee, the welterweight champion of the whole wide world. Ace Hudkins is so well liked here in his new home that the majority of his followers think he is sure to win, but with a hope for his victory he is in for the hardest, toughest evening of his career. Dundee is no cinch. If he was not better than the rest he would not be champion.
Joe Dundee, the pride of Maryland, and one of the real gentlemen of the ring, is working hard for Ace Hudkins, the "Nebraska Wildcat", whom he meets the night of October 29th in Wrigley Field. Ace is fast rounding into shape at Baker's Ranch wille Joe Hudkins, the "Nebraska Wildcat", whom he welged 152 when he hopped off the train Saturday, but looked to be in fine shape. He will scale 145 for Ace without any trouble, according to Max Waxman, his manager.
Joe Dundee may not be what is termed a great champion, but he is a wonderful little fighting machine, and a feared ring man. He is a smart fighter and possesses a short right that falls under the heart that has sent some good boys along the road that spells—Oblivion.
COLORED BOXERS
TOO
Any of the supporting bouts on the "Fistic Eplc" would make a good main bout any time. Donald and his right hand bower-Kerwin, always have as many colored boys on their side as championship bouts, in this great, championship battle will be no exception. Among the colored boys being figured on are that speed boy Lightning Dan's against Davis Baron; Langford against Jackie Field; Baby Gans against Prince Dundee; also Clyde Coliny, Willie Henry, Jimmy Harrison, Roy Williams, and others are being mentioned.
Lightning Davis Wins
COAST CITIES CHAMPIONSHIP AT CULVER CITY

"HAVE TO SAVE YOUR DOUGH WHEN MAKING IT," SAYS EX-CHAMPION
Chicago, Ill—Jack Johnson, who knocked out Jim Jojerries in 1910 to win the world's heavyweight championship, entered an involuntary debtor's petition in October 3 to save himself from a debtory cell.
Johnson makes the petition because he said he was unable to pay a $2,500 balance on an $11,000 bill for jewelry purchased in 1922 for his former white wife, Lucille Cameson Johnson, in the futile attempt to dissuade her from divorcing him.
"Nobody cares for an ex-champion." Johnson said. You've got to save your dough while you're mak it. When I was making big dough, I would have laughed if anybody had ever told me I would end up in court trying to explain why I could not pay my bills."
La Premiers and Wilhsire Olympics Play Air-Tight Game

The New York Yankees, American League pennant winners, defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates four straight games in the battle for the world's championship. By this feat the world's hard slugging New Yorkers equaled the world's record in world series games won set by the Boston Braves when they walloped the Philadelphia Athletics four straight games in the 1914 world's series.
The four games were thrilling from start to finish. The Yanks won the first game in Pittsburgh on errors. The Pirates out-in the hagging Yankees in that first game but the laxity in the pinches and glaring beat beat
The men from Pittsburgh were supposed to be smart baseball men but the New Yorkers out-smarted and outhit them and took the series in a walk-away. The New York team starred as a whole but special attention must be called to the playing of Ruth. Herb Pennock and Mark Koenig and brilliant Yankee short-stop. Ruth, playing his seventh world series seemed better than ever. His home runs in the third and fourth games were the established features of the series.
Herb Pennock, the Yankee portside slinger shone beyond comparison in the third game, holding the Pitrates hitless until the seventh inning. For a while it looked as if it was going to be a no-hit, no-run game. Pie Traryn, the Pirate captain, broke the spell will a single after twenty-two of the Buccaneers had walked the plank in a row. This is Pennock's fifth world series and he has yet to meet defeat. Mark Koenig playing in his second world's series gave a creditable account of himself accepting fourteen assists without an error. Earl Coombs, Tony Lazzeri and Joe Dugan also played airtight baseball.
. . .
Cofonel Ruppert, owner of the New York team has salary problems worrying him already, although contracts aren't to be mailed out for several months yet. Tony Lazzeri, Lou Gehrig and Mark Bennett are named brilliantly in the series will undoubtedly demand an increase in salary.
And that ends baseball until next year.

Have you noticed how comparatively few colored oys have been getting in print during this year's football season? Slicker Stocks, the Pasadena Junior College flash is the only one getting any mention at all. Slicker is the start of the Pasadena team, not only in football but also in the Casabas sport. Stocks was the chief cause of the Pasadena Junior College winning the Juniors College conference last year, and even greater things are expected of the brown flash this year. Rufus Norman or U. S. C. is out for end, but according to Mark Kelley, famous Examiner sports scribe, Norman is getting absolutely no recognition from the coaches.
Do you remember last year how long Howard Jones, Southern California coach made Brice Taylor sit on the bench and then put him in the game only when he saw he couldn't get along without him?
I wonder if there isn't the least bit of prejudice at Southern California this year? I WONDER!

Can The Colored Man Fly?
Fly?
Will the colored man fly if given the same opportunity to fly as other races? The Vernon Aero Club sincerely asked these two questions. And the Los Angeles Forum replies in unison, "Yes". The demand for pilots, mechanics, riggers and etc. is now greater than the supply. Also millionaires and business men are buying planes for their own private use, which calls for men to retain the upkeep of their planes. Factories all over America are rapidly being built for the manufacture or airplanes: The Vernon Aero Club will give the Colored people all opportunity to qualify for any or all branches of aviation. They are a gift to the community, $200.00 on terms; providing if they can get 50 colored people to take the course. Let us take advantage of the opportunity given us.

Death Ends Briliant Musical Career of "Blind Boone"
St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 15. (By A. N. P.)—William John Boone, better known as "Blind Boone," famous pianist, blind from Birth, died suddenly Tuesday night, at the home of his stepbrother at Warrenburg, Mo., according to a dispatch received here. Boone was 64 years old. Death was due to acute dilation of the heart.
Boone went to Warrensburg from his home in Columbia, Mo. Tuesday for a visit with his relatives. He died four hours later. He was born in Saline County, Mo. After the Civil War, his mother took him to Warrensburg.
Boone learned to play the piano by ear, an accomplishment which gave him nation-wide recognition as a pianist. He has given concerts in all sections of the country. Of late years he made his home in Columbia where his body was sent for burial.
**LEAVES A FORTUNE**
Blind Boone gave his farewell concert at Virden, Illinois on the East Side, on June 1, last, and announced at that time he would retire to Columbia to attempt to regain his health, which failed following the death of his manager, John Lang, who had handled his affairs for thirty-six years. Boone leaves a considerable fortune.
At the age of six, Boone organized a boys' mouth organ and Jew's harp band in Werrensburg, and first attracted the attention of a group of people who decided to send him to a school for the blind in this city. The school life and lack of opportunity to improve his music weared Boone, however, and he ran away from school when he was nine years old and organized an archin's street band in St. Louis.
WHEN OPPORTUNITY CAME
Going to Columbia, Mo., a few years later, he came to the attention of Lang, who was directing a Sunday School orchestra. Lang became Boone's manager and his fame as a pianist spread. He appeared in concert in virtually every city in the United States and in many foreign countries.
Boone's father was a drum major in the Union Army, and it was from him he acquired his love for music.
Probably his most noted composition was "The Marshfield Tornado," written by him in 1880, and played at nearly every concert he gave. The composition was based by a tornado he went through at Marshfield, Mo.

PROMINENT PATRONS OF
LIFE INSURANCE
THIRTEEN THOUSAND CARRY OV
FR. $90,000
In the Special Issue of the September Magazine, entitled, "Prominent Patrons of Life Insurance," there are thirteen thousand names of persons in every state in the country carrying over $50,000 of insurance. There are 194 persons named who carry more than $1,000,000 insurance, headed by Rodman Wanamaker, whose life is insured for $7,500,000. A notable thing about the book is that only one colored man is named in the book, that person being John M. Avery, Vice-President and Secretary of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, of Durham, N. C. Mr. Avery is credited with having $31,500 insurance on his life.
For several months past, an accumulation or data on the amount of insurance carried in large amounts by colored people has been made by Harry H. Pace, President of the Northernern Life Insurance Company. Mr. Pace states that a few otherwise well educated colored men have refused to give the amount of insurance carried by them, not understanding the purpose for which it would be used. Proceeds of life insurance policies are no taxable, which many do not understand and which seems to be the greatest fear. But thirteen thousand white men—seven and John M. Avery—carrying from forty to seven and a half millions were not afraid to tell AH credit to Avery. May his triple increase

Mr. and Mrs. J. B. McCutchon on E. 45th ST. have discharged their Chevy and engaged the service of a smart-looking Oakland sedan. Congratulations.
Brother Winslow, the ice man, who started less than a year ago in the business of peddling ice in a small way in an improvised Ford has built up a business that is a credit to himself and race. He has three delivery trucks in addition to an ice distributing plant. That's what we call progressing.
Statistics on footwear show that the women wear out 33.1 per cent of the shoes produced each year; men wear out 27.6 per cent, and the children use up the rest, and if the men say anything smart about it to the women all the women need do is dig up statistics on automobile tires. Yeah! Bo!

Dr. Liddell, S. H. Dudley, the tailor, Doc Eggleson, all rolled into town the middle of last week each with a big buck deer strapped on his car. Deer meat supplanted hog and cow meat while it lasted. Central Avenue butchers were put out of business for several days.
A. E. Andardsonia is noticed to be in smiles these days as he pilots his roadster about the streets. His friends are trying to figure out just why.
Mr. Dick Hawkins, beau brummel, U. S. C. student, benefited, and universal favorite, is notically tamer than he used to be. Even his Nash mobile can't understand. Sometimes we think matrimony has caused the change.
Mr. Henry Brown of Brown & Hart, Inc., and his Peerless are in the limelight constantly. What next.
The Vellery family have finally decided that there is no plaque like L. A. It took two motor trips to Chicago to convince them, or her rather, as he knew. They still have their Nash and good health, so they are none the worse off.
The Eagle's official car journeyed to Long Beach. Monday to do a bit of criminal investigation.
Three efficient reporters were passengers.
Mrs. Cynthia Cleighton was noticed rambling around in her good-looking Reo sedan. She looked the picture of health and like her trip East agreed with her.
Rev. Miller who for several years past has directed the religious and financial destinies of Eighth and Towne and recreates in a smart-looking Studebaker, has been returned we hear for another year to the charge. There is much rejoicing amongst the friends and members.
The National Association had a rather lively session at 5th and Towne Ave., last Sunday. Reckon if Gabriel had blown his horn you couldn't have told who was who. The threatening
If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened
storm finally subsided and many took an auto airing to catch their breath.
Boys, watch your steps as there is a smart-looking young lady that pilots a Cheery coupe extracting a dollar or more from those she comes in contact for National Association membership. We don't mean for you to dodge her but be sure and keep a dollar in your pocket so you won't be embarrassed and forced to say no. This is a warning.
Hello, help! Police! Mr. Norman O. Houston just rolled up in his Stude and cracked us on the head for a "Y" membership at the same time mumbling something about conscripting us to assist in a membership drive with the title of Lieutenant attached to our papers. We thought the war was over, the army was disbanded, but not so. So General Houston we accept your command.
Walter Davis and his Overland have suddenly commenced consuming gas. We never noticed it till the gas man called our attention to it.
Well, of course you've heard the news but if you weren't there to have seen you can't imagine what 23rd and Central looked like on last Thursday and Friday nights, when the Lincoln Theater came into being. Thursday night was the speak-easy entrance by invitation only and, things looked crowded that night but Friday was knock 'em dead night. Seats and parking space at a premium and spelling salts were, in demand. However the excitement is now all over and one may now secure a seat with
out risking their life.
Fred Price, the doing well young man, drove up in his Hudson to see us last Tuesday. Fred sure knows how to extract the erbs from one's pocket and bank them.
Captain Smith who many will remember a year or so back as the elusive and ruthenous man about town, paraded down the Avvenue last Tuesday A. M. in a vintaged Pierce Arrow. We know not whence he cometh or wither he gooth. But any way we seen him on the wing.
From what we see and hear a new motor car agency is to be born about November 1st. Chas. Blodgett is to be the father and Tommy Pillows the nurse. The infant is to be the Hudson-Essue. We presume and assume someone's going to move to make room for the new arrival.
Paul Alexander, veteran County employee had his Buick slightly damaged last week when he forgot and left the car door open in backout of his yard. The car is in the hospital. Better the car than the owner.
Drove by John Caulksberry, the electrician last Tuesday and was informed that he was in court, where he brought suit for personal damages sustained by him in an explosion accident over a year ago.
Folks have already headed their cars for the winter league baseball park and the opening game runs true to form for attendance there will be just a measely 10,000 black and white folks on hand when the gong sounds and the umpire yels—PLAY BALL! Odds are 2 to 1 that the colored team cops the opener. Personally, I think it would do there is a chance to clean up and get well. This dope was extracted from the Claud Neil Smoke House.
HIGHLIGHTS ON NEW MOTOR VEHICLE LAW
Notable among the recent changes in the California Motor Laws are those enacted for the purpose of minimizing the number of stolen cars, according to the Legal Department of the National Automobile Club.
Used car dealers must give notice to the Division of Motor Vehicles whenever a car is sold or transferred. The purpose of the amendment requiring such notice is that of facilitating the recovery of stolen cars.
Other provisions aimed at the stolen car evil are the amendments to section 55 regarding reports of stolen or embezzled vehicles. Two sub-sections have been added to this section of the law.
First is sub-section "B" requiring that if a stolen car is not recovered within one week after the theft of it, the county sheriff or chief or police or peace officer to whom the theft is reported, shall make an immediate report of the theft. This is sub-section of Motor Vehicles. Official forms for such reports are supplied by the Division. This sub-section also requires that any officer receiving information that any car which has previously been reported stolen, is recovered, shall immediately report the fact of such discovery to the Division.
Then, sub-section "C" contains the provision which makes possible the use of the reports for the purpose of checking up. The Division files all the reports of stolen automobiles, indexes the reports and will not transfer the registration of any car without first checking up.
The check will be made on the engine numbers shown in the application for transfer against the engine numbers shown in the stolen car index. If the Division is satisfied that the car to be transferred is not a stolen car, the transfer will be made in the regular way. If, however, the engine number of the car to be transferred, checks with a number shown by the index to be that of a stolen car not reported as recovered, the investigation will start. That is how the system works.
Still another provision will aid in the theft of stolen cars in that which has to do with reports be made by garage owners. This amendment requires the reporting to the police or sheriff's office any motor vehicle which has been stored in the garage for a period of more than thirty days, if the owner and address is not known to the garage proprietor.
Parking stations are required to keep a record of cars stored longer than twelve hours.
Inflate Front Tires
When the car begins to steer to right or left and is hard to hold in the road, examine the air in the front tires. A difference of fifteen pounds pressure in the front tires will often cause the car to street to the side with ow pressure.
Mr. and Mrs. P. Kemp on Channing Street, motored into town Monday from Elsinore, where they maintain a cozy summer home. Mr. Kemp is still on the mend from the accident he had some time ago.
The Harrison Auto Paint Shop whose ad appears elsewhere in the column of this paper and of which Mr. C. C. Harrison is proprietor is a concern that is standing on both feet and delivering the goods.
This going, growing business is maintaining a standard in efficiency and workmanship that is 100 per cent. This is a true statement minus any attempt at flattery.
"The Harrison Auto Paint Shop," says "Mrs. Harrison, "is introducing using the latest painting methods and our work is absolutely guaranteed.
The interested public is always welcome to visit our plant any time from 7 A. M. to 6 P. M. Prices quoted and estimates given."
Santa Barbara Road Now in Good Shape
For the first time in two and one-half years, the highway into Santa Barbara from the South is clear of all construction hindrances. The road is wide open now, the last remaining section of one-way traffic just north of the Ventura bridge having been eliminated.
High Sierra Report
Splendid Hunting
The high Sierra carry promise of excellent deer hunting this year. Hunting is reported unusually good in the vicinity of Fish Camp and Wawona, probably due to the fact that these places are in such proximity to Yosemite National Park. Saddle and pack animals may be obtained at these locations at an average charge of $2.50 per day.
Squealing Brakes
Trouble Indicator
When brakes begin to squeal, it is time to examine the lining for exposed rivet heads. Metal rivets coming in contact with the brake drum not only cause this annoying noise but cause the more serious trouble of scoring the brake drums.
Motor Car Accident Figures Presented
Twenty-eight per cent of the non-occupational accidents to which the average person is exposed, result from the automobile. The leading cause of such accidents is collision, while other-leading factors are repairing, cranking and skidding.
Synthetic gasoline, they say,
Will chase the old high costs away,
And we can drive the whole long day
And scarcely have a dime to pay.
We'll operate a private still
And make our gas whener we will
And let the old bus have its fill,
Nor think about that monthly bill.
We'll brew the juice from coal or
coke;
Now, if some genius will come through
With ways to make old tires like new
And meet the monthly payments due
Then will our rostest dreams come

RUNS AMUCK WITH HIS HUDSON CAR
Oswald Cruezet, 823 E. 32nd St. driving, accompanied by J. T. Wilson, 1426 E. 18th St. of whom it is said both were intoxicated ran amuck on Central Avenue on last Wednesday at 4 o'clock P. M. They started out by hitting a gravel struck at 22nd and Central Ave., never stopping they hit a touring car between 23rd and 24th on Central Ave., throwing this car across two railway tracks, holding up traffic for 30 minutes, while a L. A. wrecking car came to the rescue to remove the debris.
At this point the driver and his companion were overheated by the officers and placed in jail where they say they will prosecute under the new law, which is a positive felony. The arrests were made by officers from Newton St. Station.
