Statement From Mutual Dairy Association The officials of the Mutual Dairy Company stated to the Editor of this paper that the Company was never cognizant of any discrimination in the conduct of the eating house which it leased out to a private party, until complaint was made and that they have never thought of putting in vogue such practices and that such a situation would not be tolerated. We asked for a statement which will be given in detail in our next issue. Stabs Boy, Escapes Stabs Boy, Escapes Because he used a public phone too long, Ralph Pierson was stabbed to death by a white man in a drug store at 33rd and Avalon Wednesday night. The boy was talking with his father and trying to urge his father to let him stay out longer. The white man thought that the conversation was consuming too much time and told Pierson to hurry. Pierson gave him some answer, whereupon the man drew his knife, stabbed the bay and escaped. Ralph Pierson was 19 years old and resided at 1159 East 50th St. JAMES WELDON JOHNSON Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. HOTEL SOMERVILLE SUMMINGS With all complete, and its doors thrown open to the highly appreciative public, the beauty spot of Los Angeles, the monument to Negro enterprise, has launched forth on its mission to make life that much more pleasant, for all members of the race who come to sojourn within its hospitable walls. It is destined to be the grafting place of the best manhood and womanhood of the city as well as a restful haven for the stranger passing through our gates. All the shops, stores and offices are open and ready for business and are deserving of all the patronage that they can get. Each week in this column will be published the names of guests stopping there and tidbits of life and activities in and about the splendid hostelry. Announces Candidacy For Assembly JOSEPH B. BA88 Joseph B. Bass, editor of the "California Eagle", resident of Los Angeles for the past 16 years, a life long republican and who has ever been to the forefront for the advancement of the interests of all the people, backed by the signed pledges of nearly 2,000 republican voters, announces himself a candidate for the office of Assemblyman from the 74th Assembly district of the State of California subject to the primaries to be held on August 28, 1928. In succeeding issues, Mr. Bass will set forth, in detail, his platform and publish the names of signers to his cause (not published in this issue) and will, in general, prosecute a vigorous campaign.

Day and night the sessions are of paramount interest to all colored people and to all friends of the race. Those taking part are the flower of both races, and it will be seen at the end of the Conference by all unprejudiced minds that the work which the Association is doing is of the greatest importance and most eminently patriotic. Saturday is reserved for an outing for the delegates, to Hollywood, the mountain drive and the beaches. On Saturday evening at 8:00 P. M. there will be a Musical Review at the Shrine Auditorium and a dance at the Shrine Pavilion. The National Conference of the N. A. A. C. P. is noted for beginning on the dot.

Conference New York, June 15—The Board of School Superintendents of the City of New York has recognized the educational importance of the Annual Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to be held this year in Los Angeles, June 27 to July 3, by giving a teacher, Mrs. Florence Henderson, leave with pay, so she can attend. Mrs. Henderson writes: "This recommendation was accepted by the Board of Education, absence being allowed with pay. It is a very unusual thing for teachers to get off with pay to anything other than the National Education Association and it is possibly the first privilege of this kind experienced by one of our color." NO. IF IS not New York's Seventh Avenue, or Chicago's State Street, that we are interested in just now—is our Central Avenue, and the East Side of Los Angeles, that we would speak to at this time; and this is what we have to say: The N. A. C. P in Annual Session is coming to Los Angeles for the first time in its history; let's not only make new frocks for the occasion but let's clean up Central Ave., our back yards, and our Bay,洗 our windows and polish our irons, and all together let us be ready to receive it's great delegation of human rights advocates. Also let us start a better behavior week, and demonstrate that we are ready to conform to a program of advancement along all lines. In answer to our suggestion that the question concerning a name be one of the questions discussed at the National Association conference: we have received many interesting communications on this subject, among which is one from Mr. S. B. W. May which we are publishing in the next state of this paper. TEXAS MURDERERS, unmasked, lead man from hospital bed and hang him on the tree. Whether Robert Powell was guilty or not guilty of the murder of city detective A. W. Davis, I reckon will never be known. Anyhow, on Tuesday, June 20, 1928, a band of unmasked lynchers went to the Jefferson Davis Hospital, eight miles out of Houston, at 6:30 o'clock in the morning and took Powell from a hospital bed, where he had been taken last Sunday when he was wounded in a gun battle between Negroes and whites. It is said that Powell's body was found by city detectives in a hangman's noose dangling from a bridge. The El Paso Herald said that Gov. Dan Moody had order three Texas rangers to Houston to investigate the lynching. But then, we know that his is the same old story, the same old way. Somehow, in the case of lynchings Governors and Sheriffs are always just too late to interfere. We are hoping that soon a little David will rise up among us and that we shall be avenged against, this wrong. IN MAKING an investigation of conditions at the General Hospital with regards to the treatment of Colored girls in Nurse Training, we contacted Supervisor Jack Bean. We related to Mr. Bean that gross discrimination against Colored girls had been practiced by those in charge at the hospital since 1926. "Well," said Supervisor Bean, "I certainly exerted every influence at my command getting Colored Girls in the County Hospital, not because I sought favor with your people, but because I believed that it was right and proper that as taxpayers and American citizens that this was a privilege that should not be denied them. Now, if these practices of discrimination have gone on since 1928, they surely have never been officially brought to my attention." Mr. Bean further assured the writer that from the County Court House to the General Hospital he had as far as his duties extended tried always to treat people and citizens the same regardless of race, color, or religion. Mr. Bean further stated that he was not responsible for false reports. That his one and strongest desire was to serve all the people in his district as best he could. Our investigation then lead us to the Janitors' Department at the County Court House, presided over by the man with the ever present smile, L. G. Robinson. "What about this condition at the County Hospital and Supervisor Bean's part in it?" we asked Mr. Robinson, and this was his response: "I am not playing politics, I want to tell the truth. I have never worked with a man who treated me fairer than has Mr. Bean, and it grieves me to think that my people would be so unthoughtful as to forget the friendly attitude of this man who has never failed us." IN CITY. State and National Administrations, we do not always come in for a square deal, but at least we should not forget past events. We want always to keep and put in office men with the human touch who would dare to do right when all about them turn aside on questions of color or conditions. LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, JUNE 22, 1928 Page-Ten AN DA LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDA THE BLACK SPORT WORLD THROUGH THE EYES OF HAMILTON ART Last Saturday when Frank Wykoff, Glendale high school boy best Paddock in the Race of the Century a new race find was uncovered in the person of Nathaniel George, of Whittier College, Washington, D. C. Wycoff, the blonde high school kid raced the legs off the veteran Charlie Paddock to take the Century Race. Paddock came second, a few inches behind the high school winner and not an inch behind Paddock raced George. in the 200 meter race George dropped to fourth. Lombardi, the Los Angeles high school boy that was doped to cop the 100 meter came in third, ahead of George. This is George's first year in college. If the boy from Washington can stand among the fastest and hold his own in his freshman year, what should the junior and senior years show? There is no doubt about him being a great runner and with the proper training he should be listed among the fastest runner on his completion of college. Nell Clisby beat Long Tom Hawkins in ten rounds last Friday night at San Diego. That's the way the report of the fight read. But the way it should have been stated is Neil Cisby K. O'd. Hawkins in two rounds, and it would have read in the above manner if Cisby had wanted it to. It was a slow, uninteresting fight and the referee warned them several times to fight. Hawkins was willing to make a fight of it but Cisby dropped back into his old habit of doing as little fighting as possible. Neil was far too clever for Long Tom and you can imagine what a fight it was with Hawkins trying to hit Cisby and Neil keeping him off, simply playing with him. Before the Riverside Bear Cat left for the East on his last trip he fought several times at San Bernardino and they named him, "Careful Neil," because of his playful tactics with his opponents. But when he returned he was a different man altogether. He was a fighter, not a playmate and he has demonstrated his fighting powers in several bouts since then. Now he drops back into his old style in his last two fights with Vic Alexander and Tom Hawkins. Clisby should know by now that the heavyweight that is going to make the money is the aggressive fighter, who fights every second he is in the squared circle. Come out of it, Neil, and let's have all your fights duplicates of the Mack House bout. More power to you, AND HOW! TENNIS CHATTER TENNIS CHATTER As we go to press Mickey Walker, middleweight champion and Ace Hudkins, his challenger, crawl through the hemp at Chicago to do battle, and Oh! MAMMA, what a fight! The Ace has been dooding Mickey Walker and Joe Dundee for a crack at their titles for some little time and tonight (Thursday) he gets his chance with Walker. Dundee ran out on him in California last year. Both of the boys are Irish and My! how they can scrap. It's going to be a bloody battle and we pick Micky on his boxing ability. Hudkins knows how to do nothing but fight, and plenty of it, and if Walker boxes him along with some show of brown he will win. Station A. R. T. signing off. LOW DOWN ON TENNIS FANS Alfred Johnson, that boy of nonsense and would be classy man, has hit town again. The writer observed him playing tennis in a baby fashion one day last week at Jefferson High. When this chap grows up bit, the writer might condescend to give him a few helpful pointers on the game. Among those seen playing the game enthusiastically this week were: Ronold Wharton, Weyman Thomas, Josie Price, Aurora Slayter, Ida Bowman, Robert Robinson, Dorothy Hudnell Florence Cadrez, Mildred Saucier and many others. Wonder why Samuel Sinclair was seen around the tennis court at So. Part last Sunday? He didn't have his tennis paraphernalia either. Constance Rogers runs in sky high gear about three days out of every week to the tennis courts at U. C. L. A. on north Vermont in her new tantalizing Buick roadster. His Honor, Judge Valentine of the Municipal Court, had an original one sprung on him the other day in court. By whom? None other than the brilliant minded Ray Montgomery himself.

L. Mencken to be the world's leading writer on Hobohemia. "There are many strange jargons and lingoes in tramp life," says Tully, who himself slept eight years on the road. "For instance, one tramp might say to another, 'I tooted the ringer and sooched a set-down, and who was sitting in there but an old mushkaker I'd seen in the stir.' Translated, it means, 'I rang the bell and asked for a meal end who was sitting in the kitchen but an old umbrella mender I'd seen in the fall.' "Tramps are inventors of words for their own use which now and then pass into popular slang and sometimes into the language. The words bloke, stall, bughouse, stiff, yegg, boomer, kelster (for suitcase), and bennie (for overcoat) are their inventions. "Martin Luther compiled a tramp dictionary in 1528—four hundred years ago. From that day the jargon of tramps has always been picturesque. The following are among the terms which Tully has assembled: HOBO—A migratory worker. A free lance worker. From the Hoo Boys of the West, who before improved machinery used to harvest with their hoes. Remaining over the season, they went "broke," and became known as "hoboes." TRAMPS, DINGOES, SCENERY BUMS—Those who wander around and live off the country without laboring. GAY-CAT—A tenderfoot in Hobodom, GAY-DANCER—Membrer of an extra gang of workmen on railroads. FLICKER—To faint. CHUCK-A-DUMMY—To feign a faintning fit in order to get sympathy. CALIFORNIA BLANKETS—Newspapers, when used to sleep on. MINISTER'S FACE—Pig's head, served in cheap restaurants. HOT SHOT—A fast freight of parishable merchandise. GHOST STORY—Inventing a plausible tale. TIP THE OFFICE—Be cautious. FLIPPING—Train riding. ALLIGATOR BAIT—Fried or stewed liver. BANJO—Short handled shovel. TOWN CLOWN—Village constable. POGEY—Whiskey, a booze-fighter. DAMPER—Cash register. SCOFFING—Eating. JOCKER—A road kid's foster parent. An older hobo traveling with and protecting a younger hobo. CAPTAIN, TOE-LINE, LIVE WIRE One off a job and free with his money. LIGHTHOUSE—One who can recognize dicks (detectives) or bulls (policemen) on sight. COLLEGE NEWS ALICE KENNEDY Vacation months return to us those young women who had gone to variegated cities to teach school. While they are happy to be at home once again they express their reluctance of leaving their respective cities and how thoroughly they enjoyed their experiences. The returned are: Misses Marjorie Bright, Hilda Johnson, Vina Johnson, Partia Broyles and Mr. and Mrs. Aubrey Aldrich. Alpha Phi Alpha announces the the initiation of James Robinson, Walter Gordon, James Price, James Davenport, Green. With regret we note that the Young Peoples Fellowship is discontinuing meeting on the third Sunday. Just when school is out and one has plenty of time to attend. Never saw so much enthusiasm exhibited in my whole life as was witnessed at the Independent Church Sunday morning and night when the girls celebrated their annual day. Miss Odessa Curry presented a marvelous program on Girls' Day during both services. Some of the most finished talent was included in the numbers notably the sermon of one of our embryo-evangelists. Myrtle Cage. The sermon was not quite logical, yet it veling about 45 miles per hour in a 15 mile zone last Wednesday morning. A smiling but still very starm motorcycle officer stopped Ray right in the midst of this spectacular line plunge. Ray was tackled terribly hard by this officer even to the exelt of being hauled into Judge Valentines court "to tell it to the judge." When questioned as to the cause of his apparent haste, Ray replied that he was on his way to play tennis when he observed that one of the strings in his tennis racket was worn and on the verge of breaking, and that he was hurrying to play at least one set of tennis with it before it broke. (Incidentally, Ray told this so innocently and earnestly that it gave Judge Valentine a hearty laugh. Coupled with His Honor being in a pleasant mood because of the recital of Rays incident and this one being entirely original, Ray was dismissed on a suspended sentence.) Worst luck next time, Ray! EDITED BY: LAWRENCE F. LAMAR appealed. Miss Louise Smith assisted ably at the organ. I marvel at the sincere and deep rooted interest Rev. Greggs takes in young people and their affairs; how cleverly and subtly he urges hem on without really preaching or lecturing them. Boys' Day is next Sunday. Gilbert Allen along with Samuel Brown will have charge of the program. Naturally the public is expecting great things. The most profound lecture of recent date was the one delivered on Sunday afternoon at the Forum when Mr. Hugh Gordon addressed the assemblage on the future economic strata of the Negro. The attendance was extremely appreciative and for that reason they asked if he would address a meeting at the Independent Church. Mr. George C. Coker, along with his mother, are leaving for an extended visit in the East. Enroute they will stop in Chicago, Washington, D. C., Baltimore and points South. They will visit relatives in North Carolina. SOCIETY FAVORITES LEARN PI ANO FOR SELF CULTURE According to Mr. Walter R. Johnson, of the Select Piano School of that name, there is an increasingly large number of pupils coming from those amongst us who have not the idea of commercializing future talents: But, the sole ambition of acquiring this knowledge for self-pleasure. That is a most wonderful gesture. This tendency will go a long way toward increasing the cultural development of the group. Not enough of us know and appreciate music. Yet we all know the tremendous influence it has upon its listeners. In nearly every home there is a piano. Yet it is hardly played until some particular friend or guest comes along, and, concerns to play it. The piano in most homes is treated purely as an ornament. Mr. Johnson is the celebrated pianist, brought west from Chicago by Mr. Curtis Mosby, to augment the famous orchestra now playing at the Lincoln Theatre. He knows his piano from A to Z and has won laurels as a very able teacher. He is master of the classics as well at the Jazz. He gives personal attention to each of his pupils. Students of all grades are welcome. No matter what lesson you are on, he will take up there, and continue you on. If you are aspiring to be a successful hostess, you should know your music. If to make yourself always a welcome guest, know your music. If you are ambitious to become a teacher of the piano, know your music. COLLEGE NEWS ALYCE KENNEDY SYLVON GREECY WINS BABE Jefferson Hi won the City League Base Ball Championship. That's wonderful. But if you could peak behind those lines, and see what force propelled that nine to victory, you would see the smiling face of Sylvan Creecy. Creecy should in addition to being awarded the Babe Ruth Bat, for gathering the most base hits, be given the title of the best high school athlete. That takes up quite a large territory, but we are sticking to our statement. Witness his work on the track, on the gridron, on the field and on the diamond. All steller feats. Bring forth your arguments to refute that above statement. Give Creecy a big hand gang, he deserves it. TIMES WRITER DENOUNCES OLYMPIC OFFICIAL BLUNDERS Men, if you happen to be reading the Los Angeles Times Sport Section —and you should read it—and happen to run across a writer by the name of Dyer, pause and see what he has to say. He has won a deep place in the hearts of Black America, Last Sat. at the Coliseum, where the Westerns finals for Olympic berths were held, a dirty deal was given one of our boys from Whittier College, Nathaniel George, placed third in the 100 meter race and fourth in the 200 meter race, but notwith- standing he was denied a chance to go east. There was never any advance publicity, concerning the chances of George, but quite a few knew of his chances. He was pitted against the best runners in the world, and earned his place. He had to run his gruelling trial heats, just the day before the big race, no other big star had to do this. George claims he wasn't in top form, and if he was those celebrated runners would be only so many horsefeathers—nothing. This, particular writer was really hot about it, and he let the whole world know it. We can't see, why the West is so much opposed to having a colored boy represent them if he earns the right. There is a growing suspicion that prejudice against the colored man is on the increase—especially in So. California. We certainly respect the manly attitude of Mr. Dyer, taking the initial thrust in our defense. The good citizens in the little Casker town of Whittier are highly insured over the fact that a student of their school was slighted thus. All colored citizens the country over, should likewise express their indignation. Successful Eastern candidates should refrain from further competing until some explanation has been given by these blundering officials here in the West. Until that time we are through with the Olympics. BRILLIANT OPENING OF BROOK -INS AUDIUMS TUESDAY -UPPER ICON 1928 At last it has arrived. We have patiently awaited with abated breath; we dared not hope. Yes, many people have watched gigantic undertakings by well meaning but poorly equipped people, sink with a crash before they could get fairly underway. We have hoped a long time that some one big enough would take a chance and put the fruits of his ambitions across. Mr. Brookins has done it! Hail him folks. Stand by him, and lets keep clean and well supported this brand new auditorium. Sceptics say we can't do it. Can we stand the accusation? That means that we are inherently filthy! We know were not. Let's prove it to the world. Everything clean and orderly, and we will have a fun palace for a long time. This undoubtedly the last word in perfection. When plans were being made for this building, evidently much attention was given to the healthy comfort of the patrons. There will be plenty of light and ventilation. Those two features were very carefully attended to. There is plenty of space for the dancers. The floors are highly waxed and of the best hardwood. There is not the slightest chance of those who are not dancing getting in the way of those dancing. There is a raised platform with a rain around it that prevents this contact. Don't let me tell it all folks. Come out to the Grand Opening Tuesday Evening June 26, 1928. Admission 75 Cents Refreshments. LEON RENE'S GREAT BAND Have you hear this group lately? You haven't? Well, well; you don't begin to know what its all about until you hear them then. They're not the inexperienced youngsters they were a few years back. Yes, they're still young. But they rank with the best despite that handicap. Everybody who really desires to hire a good band, request them first. If they are not working elsewhere they accept, if employed the recommend another band. They are featuring all of the latest pieces, by Mr. Ogs Rene, and other noted composers. If you want to hear the latest, done by the best, hear Leon Rene's Syncopaters. They play every Sunday at the Beach. EARL BRODY'S FOOD WARMERS GO OVER BIG Cut of all this bally-hoo about jam up orchestra being noised about, not a word has been said about. Earl Broady's foot-warmings. Its a shame. I hold myself principally responsible for this. He is a Los Angeles boy, and I know what his brud can do, and haven't said a word about them. Folks, they play jam up music. They haven't, its true, did much work amongst or people. Most of their jobs have been for the other races. Every once in awhile they get a 'break' among their own, and they really play 'em, and you can't mistake 'em. They have the regular Thurs., Nite Dance at Pasadena, Dayton St. Hall. "NOT GUILTY" WAS A MOST HILARIOUS COMEDY-DRAMER Last weeks show at the Lincoln 'Not Guilty' bad 'em all, fooled. Many fans were under the impression, from reading the title, that they were going to be entertained with some serious Melo-dramme. Imagine their pleasant surprise when there was unfoiled for their enjoyment one of the most successful comedy-dramas staged here Really clever, jam up to the minute. This presentation could have added to its title, the words, 60 minuets of continuous laughter. Every scene was well executed, and made quite a hit. Some people have wondered why those two masterful dancers Broomfield and Greely haven't been cutting aloose lately. As much as the producers would like to, they realize that too much time, or space must not be allotted any particular people. They know the play must be successful. To make it such, each person must play his part. The show must begin and end on a specified length of time. The applauding public causes these people to take too many encores. Consequently they must not do their stuff too good. But last week they stepped on it, 'tell times got better. I mean. They did a Russian dance that wont quit. And did they like it? And How! The Comedians, Amon Davis and Gallie DeGaston, were there again. Amon Davis, did a nut act that set them a rocking. I mean, it was tonight. REEL PREVIEWS AND REVIEWS CECIL B.

If you don't believe they have resumed activities, just cast your gaze upon some of the boys who faithfully play 'Starvation Row' and see if you don't detect those unmistakable signs—that loosening of the belt about the mid-section; that jinty step, superior air, seemingly possessed of all the information in the world—you know the signs. Yes, about forty people of our group got a 'break'. I don't know the title of the picture yet, but I'll know it Colored Boy Run Third As Paddock Lose Supremacy Colored Boy Run Third As Paddock Lose Supremacy NATHANIEL GEORGE IN OLYMPIC "BACE OF THE CENTURY" RACE OF THE CENTURY With 50.000 excited spectators roaring in a mighty cheer that reverbated in echoes around the dofty walls of the vast Coliseum, the "Race of the Century" the 100 meter dash, that all the West has been looking forward to was run Saturday nd a colored boy crowded into 3rd place while Charlie Paddock the world's fastest human run second. Frank Wykuf, the new world's fastest human came in first with plenty of space between he and Paddock to make the decision, as the vast audience so used to seeing Paddock win gasped, then cheered in acclaim or the new king of the under path. GEORGE ONLY COLORED BOY IN RACE Nathaniel George, a stocky built dark brownskin boy was Afro-American's only representative and the members of the Race though scattered all over the Coliseum broke into a cheer as his dusky form shot out of the pits, with those of eight of the world's greatest white runners, Hind, Draper, Lombardi, Neihener Siocum, Gilbert Wykoff, and Paddock. In the tests held to selct winners to be sent to the last and national finals, the American Olympic in Boston July 6th and 7th. Darly Jones, Cracy Marzetta West and Walter Good were other colored boys who took part in broad jumps high jumps and discus throwing and javelin throw. George the spinner also ran in the 220 placing fourth, while Wykoff, Paddock and Lombardi ran first second and third. GEORGE EARNS PLACE BUT WILL NOT GET IT Though earning the right to go to Boston for the final of finals, Geogre will not receive this reward for his strenuous efforts unless the town of Whittier or private individuals furnish his expenses. The Olympic games committee recommended him to go but stipulated that the expenses must come from eleswhere, although it is sending twenty-five men and six girls and all these who scored all over 7200 points in the decathlon trials. This looks like just the opposite of what all expected when they saw this colored boy race to the tape in the high honors of third in a worlds new record Perfect weather favored the athletes. A lightning fast track furnished the footing they needed. From the start or the 10,000-meter run until the grand windup during which Tom Mix and his cowboys staged an impromptu Wild West show it was one dizzy afternoon. The fellow isn't living who could have caught it all. The events followed each other pell-mall, while in the center of the Coliseum a continuous circus of special act went on. DEMPSEY AMONG BOXERS Dempsey, LaBarba, Challahan and Fields boxed. Lawis and Montana wrestled. Chief Metoquah was in the ring with Dempsey and just gave him a fair workout. The ex-champion heavy looked great as did Fidel La Barba the ex-flyweight champ. A college band of 1000 pieces played throughout the afternoon. GEORGE EARNS PLACE BUT WILL NOT GET IT.

HUNT HUmbolt 3230 Interesting Side-Trip Outlined for Motorists Motorists between Santa Barbara and Los Angeles wishing to diverge from main coast highway will find a very scenic route by leaving the highway at a point three miles south of Carpinteria, taking the road leading to the left through Casitas Pass, according to the touring department of the National Automobile Club. A ood oiled road leads to the Santa Barbara county line; thence good dirt over West Casitas Pass, where second gear work is necessary. This is a very beautiful district, thickly wooded with wild walnuts, sycamores, blooming elderberries, willows and immense oaks, while in several spots, sword ferns are found in great numbers. The grades average between six per cent and twelve per cent, and while narrow in places are not dangerous for the average driver. A fair-to-good mountain road continues over East Castias Pass (elevation 1155 feet) which is bordered by blooming button sage and yellow sticky monkey flowers. This road leads in many places through walnut and lemon orchards which are now in their most beautiful stage of development, while here and there a hedge of olive trees in seen. The road leads downgrade to Foster Park, seventeen miles from Carpinteria, a beautiful grove of live-oaks presented to Ventura County by Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Forter as a memorial to their son. It is always open to the public and is wonderfully equipped for picnic and camping parties. Water is piped to the grounds, and many outdoor cooking stoves, tables, benches and children's playgrounds are in evidence. A portion of the grounds border the scenic Ventura River. Leaving Foster Park pavement is traversed to either Ventura, six and one-half miles distant or to Ojai, nine and one-half miles distant. The route through the Ojai Valley is particularly beautiful at this time, for on every hand are to be seen yellow fruit that it has been necessary to place props under the branches. The road leads over an easy, winding grade, through a section thickly wooded with oaks to Santa Paula Mineral Springs. Blooming gypsum weed and buck horns are seen in great quantities. There are numerous beautiful picnic spots in this section, well equipped with tables, benches and stoves. In many places black ribbons of oil flow from the sides of the hills to the road, indicating the natural wealth of the region. Two miles beyond the springs is Steckel Park which is a noted picnic area. Four miles beyond this Park is Santa Paula, noted as the location of the Limoneira Ranch, the largest lemon ranch in the world. Beyond Hes Sespe Creek, note dfor its fishing. Pavement is then continuous thru Fillmore, Piru and Castaic to San Fernando. The rehabilitation process in this district has been so complete that practically the only evidences of the recent flood disaster are two short dirt stretches of bigway and the greatly widened bed of the Santa Clara River. San Fernando Road is under construction leading into Los Angeles, and two gravel detours are in evidence. The road from Mono Lake to Green Lakes, located 96 miles north of Bishop now is poen, according to the touring department of the National Automobile Club. The main state highway is left at the County Poor Farm, located abut 16 miles north of Mono inn. From this point a fairly good dirt road with some stream crossings is followed to the campe on Green Lakes. All seats are reserved seats for the MUSICAL REVIEW June 30 Shrine Auditorium.

June. 21, Masonic Hall. accending D Road Report Given On Pacific Highway That part of the Pacific Highway between LeMoine and Shotgun Creek, a distance of 6.7 miles, has been practically completed and now affords splendid traveling conditions The road has been graded and graveled, but not oiled, and is a wonderful improvement over the old road, according to the touring department of the National Automobile Club. From Shotgun Creek north for about six miles the old road is used and while this is scheduled for reconstruction this year, actual work has not yet started. The reconstruction has started on the last six miles into Dunsmuir, but the preliminary work consists mainly of clearing new right-of-way and felling trees, and the main road has not yet been torn up. Several steam shovels are at work, and at these points careful driving is necessary due to trucks. There are also one or two short stretches of one-way construction. The old macadam road which is being used is very rough, as no repair work is being done, and this requires slow driving. Repair Tire at Once Advice Given Tourists These are the days of heavy driving, and the average motorist is inclined to drive far from base, according to L. C. Shaw, general service manager of the National Automobile Club. That is one reason why it pays to repair the tire or have it repaired immediately after a puncture of blowout. It is easy to succumb to the temptation to put off the job until tomorrow, but if this is done, tomorrow may find one with a flat tire along some lonely country road and without a spare tire to fall back upon. Driving on a flat or a rim is apt to be a great deal more expensive than would have been the case had the original puncture been repaired at once. Adjusting Carburetor Not Amateur's Task Adjusting Carburetor Not Amateur's Task One possible adjustment of the carburetor is left to today's car owner. It is the idle screw in most cases, and happily, it is one that will not have to be bothered about. Since carburetors have become finer devices in which the nicest of balances are necessary for efficient performance, all car makers discourage adjustments by the car owner. It should be an intimation that the carburetor is not to be blamed for many of the things which are immediately ascribed to it by many car owners. BLACK HEROES BY: FRANCES COLE LEE (For the Associated Negro Press) There are many gallant heroes, Unknown to written page. Who have fallen by lake and hillside, In every clime and age. Some have fought on Boston Common, Close by their master's side. Black men, I mean and valiant, And they as heroes died. There was yet another struggle, Niagara looked upon. And then Jackson at New Orleans, Called in the black man's son. They have borne themselves with courage. They've died like sons of men, And their blood was strewn in valleys, And splashed in wood and glen. And shall we pause at Pilloy? We know their glory there. Or yet stop at Appomattox? Black heroes everywhere. But let us think a moment, On eight ninety-eight When at San Juan and Ei Caney. Black heroes met their rate. And then across the water, In that great war in France. How they fell to earth unnoticed, Checked in their last advance. Let us cover them with glory, And honor their fair fame. Those black heroes, dead yet living, And halo their dead name. From North to South, from East to West, Black heroes, through the age, Their deeds are scrolled in gilden fire On God's eternal page. Chick Suggs In A Comeback Takes One Chick Suggs In A Comeback Takes One CHICK SUGGS BEATS RYAN Erie, Pa.—Chick Suggs of New Bedford, Mass., defeated Johnny Ryan of Erie in a 10 round bout here Friday night. From the outset it was plainly evident that the veteran Suggs was the master as he boxed his way into a comfortable lead. Nick Lutze's Sister Is His Manager Lutze tried to get his sister-manager, Grace Lutze, to come to Los Angeles to direct him in this match, but she wired back that his business affairs in Chicago would not permit her to come to the coast at this time. A few days ago Lutze obtained Jim Chapalis, a mat star during the days of Hckenschmidt, Goteh, as coach. Fane Norton Says This Of Joe Stetcher Fane Norton in an editorial in the L. A. Referee, has said of Joe Stetcher heavyweight ex-champion wrestler:— Joe Stetcher's declaration that he is going to make an effort to regain the world's heavyweight wrestling championship from Ed Lewis, is likely to put a kick into the game here. Lewis is a great drawing card and would not be averse to defending his title here if the terms are right. There is every likelihood that the Commission would grant Lou Daro permission to raise the admission prices for a Lewis Stecher match and in that case Los Angeles would draw as big a gate as could be checked in and city in the country. BY FAIRDEAL During the past few years, especially since the reign of Jack Dempsey, we have heard much regarding the "killer" instinct. So much in fact that it would almost lead us to belive a fighter is doomed to failure, unless he displays this trait. John L. Sullivan, McGovern, Ketchill and Dempsey were considered the most outstanding exponents of this art. Possibly the fact that "Sunny" Jim Williams wears a perpetual smile in the ring and out, has caused many folks to wonder if a boxer can be just as effective, or serious without the usual determined look or habitual scowl.

BROTHERHOOD NOTES The Porters' strike has been postponed, but not called off. It may be called at any time. The Strike Machinery remains in tact and it is being revised and strengthened so that it may function at the appointed time with faultless and deadly precision. The postponement has enabled them to maneuver the powerful American Federation of Labor on the side of the company, if of course the company is too well aware. Mr. Green's strong and fair statement of condemnation of Pullman policies towards pullman porters has made all 'enlightened workers and the general public more deeply concerned about, and more sympathetic with the struggle. The strike manuvre has gotten for the Brotherhood a million dollars worth of profitability. It has stirred the public informing and working and working conditions more dramatically and effectively than any other procedure could have achieved. Powerful disillusionaries writing forceful and favorable editorials in the behalf of the Brotherhood. And publicity is breaking down the backbone of the Company.

STYLE NOTES FOR THIS WEEK: Take a very dark girl, clothe her in a red-orange knee length dress, place a bright blue crepe-covered hat upon her head, put white box trimmed with blue on her legs, with bright blue shoes on her "extremities", a piece of chewing gum in her mouth, place her on Twelfth and Central and loudly to a comrade across the street, and you have a "red hot mama." NOTE: (We witnessed the above the other day and that's how charming (?) she looked. We hope she keeps off the streets in that regalia as it gives these older folks the wrong impression of the younger set.

Light Beaten In Go With Thompson BY CLAIR KELLY The sharp punching of Young Jack Thompson, Pacific coast colored welter, carried him to, an important decision over Billy Light, St. Paul last night when they clashed in the eight-round main event of Jim Mullen's third bill at the Mills Stadium, Thompson, who had been touted from the Pa. West as an exceptionally good "quirreler," and the enoglosses of the Pacific cottles, defeating the coming St. Paul boxer. He hooped light for a six count in the fourth round, and was the master of the situation from that point to the finish. This is Light's first reversal this year, the St. Paul boxer having outpotted Jack McCarthy, Jack Zivic and Clyde Hull in his last three bouts. Floyd Hybert, strong Cleveland and midweight, won the decision over "McCarthy" and St. Paul in eight unentecful sub-1s, again made a disappointing showing. Tuffy Griffith, impressive Iowa middleweight, making his first out of the open air season, was victor over Tommy O'Brien or Montana in the other eight-round scrap.

NEAL CLISBY "The California Thunderbolt" Who beat "Long Tom" Hawkins last Friday at San Diego. Clisby was offered a bout with Willie Henry at Galveston, Tex. but it big shot is coming up here in a few days. Next Sunday will see the first golf match on the Barkridge Links when L. P. Grant and Oscar Clisby, two well-known colored golf professionals will meet Barney Lucas and Charles Ross highly touted white boys in a four-ball rostrone at 2 P. M. This is the first of the golf events at the Barkridge Country Country Club and will draw a large crowd as many people of our group are taking to the great Scotch game with considerable glee. Mr. Clisby won the open championship on the Municipal Course at Griffith Park in 1926 defeating sixteen top-nopth players. Mr. Grant's ability is well known and his exploits with the ball have been on widely heralded in fact a prominent member of the race offered to wager $5,000 that Grant would beat Walter Hagen, the world's greatest in a handicap match. Both Mr. Lucas and Mr. Ross have recent years and their appearance usually calls for wide interest. Ladies are invited to take up golf at the course, and girls are being started and those desiring to join can sign the class rook at the Parkridge offices. 1143 East Twelfth Street When "Sunny" first went to Australia where he took part in some 35 battles in a course of two years, the folks were at first, under the impression he was too good natured and polite to take the rough and ready opposition at hand. However once inside the hemp, Williams convinced them the slogan "Service with a smile," was originated by him. He took the husky, hard hitting and rough customers in hand and without violating the rules of the game, soon slowed them from a gallop down to a slow center. Williams upon his arrival in this country, gave Lonnie Biggs a glove massage in the Garden, won every round against Tony Ross, scored a kaye over Billy Wheebox and recently was awarded a draw with Willie Henry in the Galveston light-heavy's home town. Williams has offered to fight Mickey Walker, Champion or that class for nothing as a tribute to the memory of his late stable mate, Tiger Flowers, and to demonstrate that he, Tanner, Leonard and Manuel make up for the "killer" spirit by skill and sports- manship.

DYE Match Pants Maker Pants To Match Your Coat Our Specialty We Match Any Pattern HU. 3351 2528 Central Ave. SOUTH LOS ANGELES NEWS---CLUB DOINGS CHURCH A F FAIRS SOCIAL ACTIVITIES Page- Two SOLVING THE RACE PROBLEM W. R. Knox Pioneer Real Estate Dealer with offices at 10350 Wilmington, Ave. Without making a great deal of noise about it is helping to solve one phase of the Race Problem by improving the employment situation among our group as he keeps from ten to fifteen men employed practically all the time in the construction of modern homes and other buildings in So. Los Angeles and other parts of the city. He has three modern residences now in course of erection and has built thirteen modern homes since the first of the year. If one thing above another needs special mention in regards to Mr. Knox's activities in this community, it is that although as busy as he and his wife are in taking care of the large business of the office, they have time to take an active part in the church, as both are members of Macedonia Baptist Church, Mr. Knox is Supt. of the Sunday School and both take part in the various activities of the church This would be a splendid example for other business people of the race to follow, for sooner or later we must learn that the man in business, who has no interest in the public affairs of the community and never meets the public outside of his place of business but takes the attitude that the litte public affairs of the people the church included, is beneath the dignity of a business man to spend any time with, will soon find his customers going some where else to spend their money. The so called Race Problem is as old as the races of mankind and is likely to continue as long as one race owns so much of the things of this world and another owns so little Loud platitudes about our right as citizens without some tangible evidences of our citizenship in the form of busness and industries will get us very little in this day when dollars speak such a universal language. If the Negro in this country could be in the position of the white man with what he owns, the Race problem wound be solved in less than a week. What we really need is that more of our Business and Professional people of ability instead of trying to separate themselves from and get away from the race, to shoulder the responsibility of leadership to develop the masses and help to redeem them from the present economic servitude, that is sorely oppressing the race. INDUSTRIAL EXPANSION FOR SOUTH LOS ANGELES ASSURED The recently reported purchased of a Right of Way by the Santa Fe Railway through this district to connect with the Belt Line running through to the Harbor is another step in bringing abet the long expected development of So.Los Angeles as the great Industrial center of this city. As industries and the most valuable asset to the growth of any community it can readily be seen that the people of our group who have considerably property holdings in this community are fortunately situated, as many of those who located in this district some years ago were thoughtful enough to secure not only one lot but several and in some instances more than acre of ground. It is reported that many factory sights have been purchased and other are being negotiated for, on, which will rise various kinds of Industrial buildings that will give employment to a large number, of people. HYDRAULIC AUTO HOIST IN-STALLED AT SERVICE STATION A Hydraulic Auto Hoist is being installed at Buford's Service Station E. 108 and Compton, Ave. The Hoist works by air pressure that lifts the car from the ground so that a person may stand beneath while the car is being greased. This is the latest device added to the many conveniences now being used by most up to date Service Stations. The Installation of the Hoist will add greatly to the quick and efficient service already being given at this very busy Service Station. CHURCH TO TAKE FORWARD STEP The often repeated statement that the church is spending too much for church buildings and should do something to help improve the economic condition of the race, will be put into effect if the present plans of Grant Chapel A. M. E. Church carry, for already plans are under way to put the church on a sound economic basis and provide employment for some of the members of our group by engaging in Business. At a meeting of the church Monday night, definite steps were taken to take over a business in this immediate locality. The members are enthusiastic over the plan and have pledged themselves to help put the proposition over. At a meeting to be held Monday night July 2nd. At campaign will be launched to finance the proposition. NEGRO BOYS AND THE BOY SCOUT MOVEMENT. CLARENCE BRITTON, SCOUT MASTER, TROOP NO. 72 To The General Public, Dear Friends and Parents: Have you ever stopped to think what possibilities are for the civic and moral development of the boys of our community. Presumably you have but you may wonder how this can be accomplished. It is a very easy matter if you will only give a little cooperation to those who are working with them to develop in them those principles of self respect and dependability. No other organization among boys during their Adolescent age is doing more to give the boys this training than the Boy Scout movement. Therefore you should encourage your boy to take up the Scout work and try to live by its principles. If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened In this community there are nearly two hundred boys between the ages of twelve and Daughters: these are the boys who need this training. At present there is only one troop of Scouts in South Los Angeles. It is a well known fact that one man cannot manage more than twenty-five boys and the National Office of Boy Scouts does not approve of any one Scout Master having more than twenty-six boys under his supervision. Hence you can see the need of more troops being organized and more co-operation on the part of the parents. These are your boys and it is your duty to see that they receive the best citizenship training possible, during their school days. At each meeting I am compelled to turn away boys who are anxious to take up the work. What we really need is six or eight men who are interested in boys to meet us with the boys and assist us in our work. There are also other ways you can help by encouraging the boys to be industrious and thrifty, to save their money and thus be prepared to help; provide the necessary things for the Scout work. Our hope is to have all the boys in the troop in uniform by July 1st. GRANT CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH Rev. T. E. Jones. Pastor Large congregations were in attendance at each of the services last Sunday. At the eleven o'clock service the Pastor spoke from the subject: "Evidences of Christ Messiahship." The spiritual tide ran high and the entire congregation seemed to have enjoyed the services. There were a number of visitors at the service, who were introduced by the Pastor. Sunday being "Father's Day" appropriate service was held in the evening. The men and boys were seated together and made a splendid showing. The pastor preached a special sermon appropriate for the occasion. The choir rendered special music. Next Sunday will be Quarterly meeting. The Presiding Elder, Rev J. C. Price is expected to be present and speak at both the morning and evening services. Special services will be held at three o'clock in the afternoon. Rev. Ralph R. King, Pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church and choir from the West Side will be present. Rev. King will preach and his choir will furnish the music for this service. The Communion will be given at the morning and evening services. Every member should be present to take the Communion. Friends are invited to worship with us next Sunday. You will receive a cordial welcome. A concert will be given at the church Thursday night, June 25th. Some of the best talent in the city will appear on the program. Special preparations will be made to accommodate the large crowd expected to attend. FRIENDSHIP BAPTIST CHURCH Rev. A. P. Barnes Pastor The services were well attended last Sunday. At the eleven o'clock service, Rev. Frazier of Richmond, Calif., preached the sermon. This was indeed a spiritual feast to all present. At three o'clock P. M. the Knights & Daughters of Tabor held their annual service. There was a large turnout of the members and friends. The pastor preached the sermon. He also filled the Pulpit at the evening service and brought a message that greatly inspired the congregation. The Masons will hold their annual service at this church most Sunday at three o'clock P. M. The Pastor will preach the sermon. The church is also planning a rally for the first Sunday in July. CITIZEN'S COUNCIL MEETING The Citizen's Council, and Industrial League, met at Macedonia Baptist hatch, E. 114th B. St. Tuesday night, June 19th. There was a splendid attendance at the meeting. The program was given under the auspices of the Organization Committee. A splendid program was rendered. While all the numbers were good special mention should be made of the wonderful address given by Mrs. C. A. Bass on the subject of "The Value of Organization." This was indeed a rare treet that will long live in the minds of those who heard it. The Pres., Rev. T. F. Jones and Rev. L. M. Curtis called attention to the fact that several people in the community were being supplied with ice from ice dealers of other groups and urged that we show our race loyalty by purchasing ice from our own ice dealers—Mr. W. O. Johnson & Sons of "The Good Will Ice Co." The Council will not take part in the N. A. A. C. P. Parade, as the parade is to be held on Sunday. The next meeting of the Council will be held on Tuesday nigh, July 3rd, a Grant Chapel A. M. E. Church. This will be a Patriotic meeting.

Mr. Carlton was engaged in business in this city for several years during that time he made many friends and acquaintances. He is at present the owner and operator of a large shoe repotting shop in San Bernardino, Calif., where he enjoys a large trade. Considerable excitement was creat- ed Thursday night, June 14th, when a man snatched a lady's purse near the corner of E. 108th St. and Compton Ave. and ran east on 108th St. across the Long Beach car line and disappeared in the darkness. Screams of the woman attracted the attention of a number of people in the neighborhood. Some of whom gave chase but to no avail. My Mother's Hands Such beautiful, beautiful hands! They're neither white nor small. And you, I know, would scarcely think That they are fair at all. I've looked on hands whose form and hue A sculptor's dream might be; Yet, are those aged, wrinkled hands More beautiful to me. Such beautiful, beautiful hands! Though heart were weary and sad. Those patient hands kept tolling on, That the children might be glad. I always weep, as, looking back. To childhood's distant day, I think how these hands rested not A Mammoth Membership Drive To Follow Conference Of The N.A.A.C.P. Dr. H. C.

TO LILY BROWN RUSSELL (Deceased) I've come to the tier of my friend as representative of the Lone Star State. Indeed she was a star in my life as she was to many others. Her spiritual life grew and unfolded so that one was able to know that she had indeed been with Jesus. She is a specific example of the worth and perseverance of women from the Lone Star State. She was a favorite in early Los Angeles history, doing much toward the upbuilding of the church and society. Surely she hath done what she could. She has done the noblest that any woman can do and that is to be a good mother. Truly Lily Russel was a lily and the grace of this flower ever reminiscent even though the blossom fades. You have the blessed hope that there will be a glad tomorrow when the flowers bloom forever and the sun is always bright.

When mine were at their play. Such beautiful beautiful hands! They're growing feeble now. For time and pain have left their mark On hands, and heart and brow, Alas! Alas! the nearing time, And the sad, sad day to me, When 'neath the daisies, out of eight, These hands will folded be. But, oh! beyond this shadow land, Where all is bright and fair, I know full well, these dear old hands Will palms of victory bear. Where crys streams through end- less years Flow over golden sands, And where the old grow young again, I'll clasp my mother's hands. —[Unidentified] Bill Lashley Hits Town Mr. William Lashley (his friends call him Bill), popular President of the famous Cosmos Club of San Francisco, will reach this city, Saturday remaining over for the big National Meeting. It will be his first visit to the big city since Bill was a boy. GRAND CONCERT Grant Chapel A. M. E. Church THURSDAY NIGHT. JUNE 25 Admission -- 25 Cts. REV. T. F. JONES, Pastor..

Is it not the completion, the accomplishment of a worth-while ideal and purpose? Success can only come after the idea to be something, to do something. Before one may achieve success they must set a goal ahead, and then must dedicate their energies and purposes to reach it; if they succeed in doing so—they will have attained success. Success is not a thing that comes to one—it is earned. Earned only by thought and endeavor. One can not sit down in life, [that is to say—nothing, to have no aim, and expect success to come along and pick him up. No not that! The man or woman the boy youth or girl youth that wills to succeed must fight for every foot of Life's road that leads to their hearts desire. To you who have just graduated—or in truth to say, just commenced, the foundations for your life are laid. What kind of a building will you build on them? Will you build a lofty structure of grace and beauty, that will be admired by all men for years to come? Or will you build—On dear God no—a hovel. 4 thing that men will shun, turn aside their heads and wonder why so splendid a foundation should be so used. No never, let it be the first—the finer and nobler things of life. Choose the thing you want to be: if it is the right thing, and if your will is strong enough, there is nothing on this earth that can keep you from being what you desire to be. When you have climbed the heights, and have reached your goal you may say: I have found Success! And to others who are all ready working in the field of Life—you get out of Life only what you sow. If you do not sow to make profit, then your time is wasted: but if you see other things in life besides eating, ```markdown ``` Batteries Absolutely Guaranteed as long as you own your car $ down $ weekly a big price cut on every size likely passing this entire reduc- is means a tremendous saving HOOD tires at amazingly low BES too is still in effect, even with the With this combination of re- s we are giving motorists the e history.

BRUNSON The road to success is no easy trail. It calls to those who will not fail. To those with hearts both true and strong Who never say can't though all is wrong— But fight, struggle ever going. Towards the goal ahead that's glowing From the heights that seem so far Beckoning like the Eastern Star. Oh the road to success is long and far We each have our own with its beckoning star; Each trail leads upward to heights sublime On which we've set our hearts to find— All the dreams and hopes are there, Waiting for the victor to appear— Oh, struggle onward, ever upward press.

Passenger Traffic Mer Page-Five Some thought should be given to the reason why food is eaten, our Physiologus tell us we need a certain denate number of calories, because that number of calories is dissipated by our bodies in twenty-four hours, however we will try to just the reason in a little more simplified form. The human body is made of several different substances, which must be replaced as our body uses them in its varies functions. To give an account of manner of food usage by our body would entail a technical verbate which could benefit the average layman little without the assistance of a medical dictionary, Suffice it to say that proteins are used for building tissue, fats for heat and suror function, sugar and starch in their action with cells also give us heat and inter into function of muscles. METHOD OF EATING It is often true that we can teach people more by saying what not to do, than by a lengthy discussion of why certain things should be done, so by that method we will make our effort. Don't belt your food. Your teeth were made for mastication not ornamentation. Don't have your food prepared in such a way as to lesson mistication Most people take plenty of time to mastigate their meat; but insist on potatoes being mashed and creamed so they can turn them over in their mouth once and swallow. Why should this not be done? Potatoes are essentially starch, the digestion or starch is begun in the mouth by the saliva and should starch fail to be thoroughly saturated with saliva in ferments in the intestinal canal causing fermentation of gas. Isn't it easy to see, why, after eating heartily of starchy foods, prepared especially for the tempting of taste and lessening of mastication, you wake during the night with colic. Don't be too lazy to get up in the morning. Frequently, when you think the boss and his wife have had words before he left for the office, the real cause is sleeping so late he had time to swallow now and masticate after he gets to the office, and as a result of such practice he has indigestion. The good gained by an hour of extra sleep is more than offset by the damage sustained by a meal eaten in such manner. Don't read your paper while eating. Your digestive organs need all the blood they can get to carry on their work. When you sit and read you use blood to carry on brain function which should be going to the organs or digestion. Another item to consider is this, if you have your eyes fixed on a paper, you pay no attention to the food you are eating, you who are guilty or such practice, could you say truthfully, should you be made sick by a meal whether it was due to the food not being fresh or properly prepared or was it due to your having failed to observe a fly which had settled on on your food beteen container and your mouth. OUR EATING Don't eat food you do not need. Eating hurriedly causes people to sometimes eat "overly-much." You who suffer from dislike digestive organs try lengthening your time of consumming a meal, say you take fifteen minutes now in eating make it thirty, eat slowly masticated also that all liquids are that morsel of food is thoroughly niactected also that all liquids are carried from Side to side of your mouth at least three times, before swallowing. If it is posable to do this, mean, leangthen the time of your meals, try eating only half as much as has been your custom but using the whole time allowed by your work for eating a smaller amount. Don't try to treat your own digestive disorders. These cause require the knowledge of a Physician who knows the Anating, Histology, Pathology, Physiology and treatment of the organs. Our idea was to impress upon your mind the fact that you probably have not stated fully to your Physician your manner of eating, the amount in excess of what you should eat, the lack of neurous foods which you don't eat because of some notion or your taste, and the irregularity of your meals, in closing allow us to give you a little tip which was given our class by a very prominent surgeon. "Gentlemen if people would only learn to have regular habits, in eating sleeping, working and the discharge of excrements from the body you boys would be better off should you choose some other profession because you couldn't make a living as a physician." Teller Of Tales Is Cleared Of Vagrancy (By The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., June 20.—"A tall man", and a "teller of strange tales" who excited some preson's jealousy because he appears to have earned a few dollars telling stories to tourists who visit the Botanic 'Gardens, was hailed into court and charged with vagrancy. A policeman had testified that the old man's yarns were stranger than fiction. Andrew Johnson., that is the tale-teller's name, would tell tourists that the Botanic Gardens contained the bone from the jaw of the whale that swallowed Jonah. Johnson also told tourists that he had shined the shoes of six presidents, and that he could remember when Pennsylvania Avenue was a race track, glittering with good looking women and fast horses. The case against Johnson was dismissed. EDITORIAL WELCOME N. A. A. C. P.

It seems to our way of thinking, that the party presents two very able conscientious and high class men whom the people might, without any apprehension trust the destiny of the nation. Hoover tried and true, stands out with greatness and ability. For vice-president, Charles Curtis has long since been acknowledged by all as one of the greatest statesmen of his time. Even with these two great men, much depends upon the proper organization of Republican forces for success in November, especially is this true if the anticipated nomination of Gov.

Page—Six If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened COMMENTS BY: W. J. WHEATON One political "spasm" has ended. The National Convention of Republicans met in the city on the banks of the "Kan," and nominated its standard bearers for the November elections. Herbert Clark Hoover, California and United States Senator; Charles Curtis, Kansas, were nominated for President and Vice-President. Both candidates were chosen on first ballots. The nominees are both of the West. Something unusual, as it is customary to balance the ticket by a recognition of diverse sections. On the face of things it looks as if the choice of Senator Curtia was forced as a pandaella for the disgruntled agriculturists, who made such sinuous demands for recognition in the party Platform or Bill of Declarations, that it was seemingly a political folly, if not party suicide, to entirely ignore them. What the industrial East thinks is hard to fathom. It's a splendid, strong, ticket. There were the usual party platitudes; meaningless words, lauding the party achievements and extolling the virtues of the present administration. As usual the Negro had special mention in a segregated section. It is hard to understand why, as an American citizen of these United States he would have to be specially mentioned racially. Here is what the plank in the Platform had to say of him. "The Negro"—"We renew our recommendation that the Congress enact at the earliest possible date a Federal anti-Lynching law so that the full influence of the Federal Government may be wielded to exterminate this hideous crime." Every Negro with a bit of pride will deplore that any mention whatever should be made of this "Hideous Crime," which for generations has been made the 'molasses jar' of partizan politics. It seems to be that the Negro delegates consider that they have achieved a wonderful thing when they point with pride to the meaningless words encouraged in a political platform. For several decades the same has been done. Any number of previous administrations have been in the position to enact such legislation; yet failed to do so. And thus it will be always. it is a good sign when the recommendation can be expressed in 33 words instead of he usual verbosity. --- The practical politician knows that there is little to fear from the outbursts of labor organizations or farm bloc. It all ends in demonstration. When the time comes to cast the ball lot 'Mr. Farmer' will scratch his head and say, By Heck! I never voted for a democrat in my life, and it's too late now to begin," and that ends it. So with the Union Labor man. Any aspirant who depends on the solidarity of the labor vote is hopelessly beaten. It is only the women voters who can keep the politician guessing. Her vote is a riddle, unsolved, until she emerges from the voting booth. A splendid ovation was given the Hon. Chas. Curry, veteran Congressman, by the citizens of his district, augmented by the citizens of Superior California, who benefit by the great Reclamation Irrigation Act passed by the last Congress. Sacramento was the scene of the splendid expression. Not partizan. It was the tribute of the whole people Curry, Swing, Johnson. Few States can boast of more constructive Statesmen than these. Senator Hiram Johnson has the respect of his most vindictive political foes. Even they join in the praise which the doughty Californian makes for a principle. The following is an editorial from the Sacramento Bee: Compensation Should be Given In Such Cases Ben Bess, a Negro, has just been released from the South Carolina State Prison after serving thirteen years of a life sentence imposed for an attack on a white woman. Recently on her deathbed, the woman confessed that the man was innocent, that she had brought the charge against him because he had refused to continue to rent some land to herself and her husband. That was a terrible thing to do. Human malignancy could hardly go further, for in making such a charge, this woman knew that the accused would probably be taken out and lynched. That fate, fortunately, he escaped. But thirteen of the best years or his life are gone. He leaves the prison destitute. Justice and humanity alike demand that in such a case as this some reimbursement should be made by society for so outrageous a wrong done to an innocent man. * * * Garland Anderson^a playwright and Louis Fremont Baldwin, Hindu doctor of Philosophy, have sued the Compoms Quick Lunch, Chas. A. Compton, proprietor, for $5,000. The place is located at 144 Ellis St. in San Francisco. When the food was served to Baldwin and Anderson it was made unpalatable by the introduction of excessive portions of condiments and as claimed, "other ingredients not generally used for the seasoning of food." When protest was made, it is alleged that they were told that it was done to keep them out of the place. We feel confident that the good citizens of San Francisco will back Mr. Anderson and Dr. Baldwin to the limit.

Sunday, June 17, the Native Sons of the Golden West, unveiled a tabler at Hetch Hetchy in honor of former U. S. Senator, James D. Phelan. In 1901 when Mayor of San Francisco, he filed claims in his own name. They now are in the most valuable point of the present Hetch Hetchy project. It forms the nucleus of the San Francisco co holdings. It is because of his gift to the city of those claims and that he actually gave the great project its start, that this memorial is erected. Former Senator, Phelan, is of the old California Stock. Believes in the possibilities of the "Golden Gate" and always ready to work for its progress. It is fine to be remembered while you live. Mme.

MATTISON McCarroll In Business In Santa Monica (By Edna Rosalyne Heard) FORMER CALIFORNIA BANK EM PLOYER OPENS GROCERY AND SODA FOUNTAIN IN SANTA MONICA Mr. Gilbert B. McCarroll, for nine years an employee of the California Bank located at Third Street and Santa Monica Boulevard, has resigned his present position to open a grocery store and soda fountain in his new building at Broadway and Eighteenth streets Twenty-one years ago, Mr. McCarr roll came to Santa Monica from Boulder, Colorado. He has seen this little town grow to what might be termed a country site into a very beautiful and thriving community which is now one of the most fashional beach resorts along the coast. Like the town which he has chosen to call home, Mr. McCarroll has also progressed having accumulated real estate located in some of the most select sections of the Bay District. His first venture was the opening of a barber shop and a Ladies Pit Shining Parlor. This pit parlor is said by commercial travelers to have been the first in Southern California and the first of its kind this side of the Rocky Mountains. Previous to this unique and novel shining parlor, boot black stands were to be found only in front of barber shops and saloons, and were patronized solely by men. The pit idea made it convenient for women to receive shining service without climbing a tall and conspicuous boot black stend. Aside from Mr. Carroll's business activities he is a well known figure in lodge and church circles having been the first president of the club that organized the Royal Arch Massons in Santa Monice. He plans to open a grocery store and soda fountain Tuesday, July 3rd and his aim is to supply the public's needs and give them clean and efficient service. The public at large is cordially invited to attend the opening of Gilbert's Grocery opposite the Crescent Bay Lodge corner 18th and Broadway streets.

A. A. C. P. RESPONSIBLE CITIZENS OF ALEXANDRIA, LA., CHARGE OFFICIAL COLLUSION New York, June 15—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue, has just received a detailed report casting new light upon the brutal murder near Alexandria, Louisiana, of two innocent colored men, Lee and Dave Blackman, brothers of William Blackman who was shot to death after allegedly killing a deputy sheriff. No crime was charged against the two Blackman brothers lynched, except that of being brothers to William Blackman. The facts as recited in the report sent to the N. A. A. C. P. and vouchered for by leading colored citizens of the community, are as follows: "1. William Blackman was wounded by unknown deputies before he even attempted to defend himself. He was called to his door and shot twice. Closing the door he crawled into another room. Securing his gun he shot and killed - alleged to have deputy sheriff J. F. Phillips. "2. The high sheriff went to the scene of the alleged crime and persuaded two brothers of the deceased William Blackman to allow him to have them confined in jail to keep down 'mob law' and to afford them protection. This they unwillingly agreed to, even though they were over a mile from the scene of the alleged killing and knew nothing of the crime until informed by the sheriff. "3. Upon the date of the lynching the high sheriff left the city of Alexandria to convey two prisoners to the state penitentiary in Baton Rouge, La. thus setting a precedent as prisoners are usually conveyed to the penitentiary by deputy sheriffs. The two prisoners carried to the penitentiary were not so desperate that it was necessary for the high sheriff to accompany them as is shown by the fact that one of them has recently returned from Chicago that he might surrender to a charge of petty larceny, and had he been desperate this act he would not have performed. "4. Practically one week after the lynching, only one newspaper has had any comment to make and no efforts have been put forth by any parish or state officers to even start an investi- AT THE "MET" New laurels for the dashing "It" girl of the screen! Clara Bow is seen in an entirely new type of role—that of a sensuous gunman's "moll" in the tenderloin setting of her latest starring picture, *Ladies of the Mob.*" which opens "Daylight, June 23 at the Metropolitan theatre" Replacing the lipstick of a flapper with an ugly looking 45 automatic, Miss Bow get her man—and how! The smile of the dashing red-head of the screen this time is a sneer; her eyes flash, not with joy, but with terror; and instead of defying convention she defies the law! "Ladies of the Mob" is Clara Bow's first heavy,dramatic role since her notable performance in "Wings." It gives her a chance to show that she is one of the outstanding actresses of the screen. It is a terror stricken yet fighting Clara Bow projected into an underworld background. "Ladies of the Mob" is Clara Bow's crowing achievement! As Yvonne, the vibrant, blazing, alluring "little lady of the mob", Clara Bow proves that she is truly Paramount's greatest star. Miss Bow, Richard Arlen, her leading man, and William Wellman, director, are brought together again in "Ladies of the Mob" for the first time since the sensational "Wings." Other members of the cast are Helen Lynch, Mary Alden, George Irving, Fred Kelsey and Bodil Rosing. On the stage the Met offers the much heralded Publix Reue, "Gems" which was devised and staged by Mort Harris. Featured in support of this presentation are The Dennis Sisters, America's foremost trio of harmonizing songsters: Kay Schuster, Pauline Gaskin, who is reputed to be one of the highest kickers in the country; Burns and Kissen, two comedy songsters who specialize in characterization dialects; Ormande's gation, no effort has been made to replace the burned homes or reimburse the aged father who has been driven from the only home he has ever known, no restitution has been made. "5. The foregoing facts leave the public with but one opinion, namely that the entire sheriff's force either participated in, or were in sympathy with the mob. Further information elicits the following: the high sheriff was a staunch supporter of the present Governor. Huey P. Long, as was the coroner who is also related to the deceased deputy sheriff. Therefore doubts arise whether the Governor will even ordnance an investigation. If this is the Democracy for which the Negro fought, bled and died, then for mine give me Heathenism. Impressive Commencement At A. and T Greensboro, N. C., June 20—The recent commencement exercises at the A. and T. College, Greensboro, N. C., extending from the presentation of an amusing three act play, "Cousin Gene", by the high school seniors, Friday evening, May 25th, to the commencement address, delivered by Dr. R. S.

A. Füller, received a hearty response from the audience, and on Tuesday, May 29th, the exercises were closed by Dr. Wilkinson's stimulating address which followed a business meeting of the Alumni Association, and a dinner for visiting graduates and friends. The fourth year high school students and the senior college candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Science were followed in the procession by the faculty arranged in ascending rank, the line facing center upon entering the auditorium to allow President F.

The big boy weighed 270 pounds when he started training for his coming bout with Johnny Risko of Cleveland. He is down to 250 pounds, and he must take off twenty more pounds before he will be in fighting weight. Risko is in much the same fix. His best fighting weight is 190 pounds. He has weighed as much as 240 pounds when out of training. that for the reason that if a boy was to finish the course at all, he had but one way to go. Ace planned something entirely different.
