St. Louis Teacher Contributes to Educational Journal
(By: A. N. P.)
St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 29 — In the last monthly issue of the English Journal, America's leading publication on English composition and the official organ of The National Council of Teachers of English, appears a valuable and interesting article by Miss Hazel McDaniel, instructor of English in Summer High School of St. Louis. This most recent contribution dealt with the problem of making old English Literature and Essays appear interesting to modern youth. This she did by a novel method of joining their reading efforts with compositions which paralleled their own experiences with the essays of the old DeCoverly Papers. She tells of her experience with a large number of students in an article that is both interesting and illuminating as well as one which introduces some genuinely original contributions to the science of instruction. Miss McDaniel is a regular contributor to a number of literary journals and her work is of the high standard demanded by America's leading educations.
Jackson Says White Insurance Companies Are Unfair
+ ____
(By: A. N. P.
New York, Aug. 25. Speaking before the delegates to the twenty-ninth annual convention of the National Negro business league here Thursday, J. A. Jackson, assistant business specialist of the Domestic Commerce Division of the United States Department of Commerce, made the charge that Negroes are discriminated against in insurance rates. A survey, he asserted, is now being made by the Department of Commerce, in co-operation with the National Negro Insurance Association to determine equitable rates.
Blythe Citizens Protest Suggestion of Segregated Schools
Plythe, Cal., Aug. 25 - Excitement is in fever head in this city and in Palo Verde Valley due to the efforts of certain conservators to have the Colored and Mexican Children put in a separate and Jim-Crow School, where they will have no contact with the white students.
On Sunday evening a packed mass meeting of colored people protested the proposed measure and formed a committee for the purpose of boy-cutting the Jim-crow schools which are being planned for the Primary grades by local school officials.
The following editorial from the current issue of the Palo Verde Times published at Hylie, California, gives a clear idea as to the extent of the proaganda which is being carried on:
"SEPARATED SCHOOLS
ADVOCATED
"To a community which resembles Dixie in more ways than one, a satisfactory segregation of school children as to races would be appreciated by practically everyone in the Valley, both colored and white.
"During the school term, the population of this part of the county is at least 15 per cent Negro, and some of the schools in the valley are attended by as many Negroes and Mexicans as whites.
"The problem which confronts the valley in this respect is not a racial one at all, as few contend, but rather a condition involving sanitation and differences of intelligence.
"Principal Moore of the grammar schools in his Master's thesis showed that the average Negro child learned school work much slower than the average white pupil. Mr. Moore's observations were made over a long period of teaching in the grades, and his report is certainly not theoretical.
"It is shown that the Negro school children are responsible in a large degree to retarded classwork in all the valley schools where they attend. Cities remedy cases of this sort by special classes, where all children either or retarded mentality, or through loss of attendance where coached by a special teacher, and the work has always been more beneficial than that of general classroom work all types of children are thrown together."
"The average Negro has told me that he feels the two races should attend different schools. The colored child who is begin with his work, and mentally one of place, is bewildered, and fails to fit into the scheme.
"And again, a census of the colored population here would assuredly reveal that the Southern Negro predominates. It is well known the disastrous results, that have occurred when the colored people of the old South have been transplanted too quickly into a Northern atmosphere. Adaptation should be very gradual for the well being of all concerned.
"With no offence intended to any race it is a fact that sanitation among the Negroes of the old South is carelessly observed to in comparison with the average white family. The condition is natural. Living conditions are not the same, and the old environment must be shaken off as a gradual process. The average colored man's low earning capacity naturally retards his standard of living. Of course, development is sure, but is not here now.
"Where the average white school pupil is in constant danger of disease through insanitation, the Negro, is careless and carefree. There is no reason why the average California child, the nation's finest as to education and cleanliness, should be forced to associate every day with people who are unavoidable inferior to sanitation and intelligence.
Preacher Denies Accepting Money Without Working
(By: A. N. P.)
Chicago, Ill., Aug. 24. - Although investigators who have been poring over the payrolls of the corporation counsel's office in an effort to discover how much of the public's money was used to employ political workers in the last campaign, found his name and the sum of $105.00 set alongside it, the Rev. J. C. Austin, pastor of Pilgrim Baptist Church and chairman of the foreign mission board of the National Baptist Convention, denies that he ever obtained the money.
Rev. Austin admits that he was a strong supporter of the "America First" ticket of William Hale Thompson but claims that he gave his services without stint or recompense.
On the corporation counsel's payroll he is listed as an investigator, along with scores of others who were hustled into service at primary time to help the Thompson forces. Denying that he ever got the money, he is unable to tell who might have obtained the sum which was supposed to be for him.
Shoots Officer---Escapes
(Pv: A N P)
Front Royal, Va., Aug. 24.—A posse of about one hundred fifty men searched the woods around this place without success in efforts to catch Henry Shepherd, who shot and probably fatally wounded Neville G. Hatcher, a State Road Officer of Warrenton. The shooting took place near Brandy. The officer is in a critical condition in the University Hospital at Char lottesville. He attempted to arrest young Shepherd who had been wanted for a year in Warrenton for the murder of a woman.
White Population Best For South Africa
(By: A. N. P.)
Washington, Aug. 24- Despatches received here from Cape Town state that a strong plea for a vigorous immigration policy for the Union of South Africa has been made by former Premier Gen. Jan Smuts, leader of the opposition, in a speech at Reinz, Orange River Colony.
"South Africa must thrown open its doors to immigration, for a larger white population is the best solution of the 'poor white problem' is the opinion of Gen. Smuts. "We should open our doors as the United States and Australia did."
"The average Negro would much rather prefer to attend school with children composed entirely of his own race, and learn adaptation gradually, and among friends.
"There is a vacant school building in this valley. There is a section of the valley and a section of Blythe where the population is largely colored. This problem is handled successfully in Imperial Valley cities, and elsewhere. There is no reason why zoning could not be worked out here." It is reported that the local branch of the American Legion is behind the movement for segregation. This report cannot be verified at present but is being investigated along with another report that certain Colored preachers and the principal of the Jim-crow school in El Centro are behind the movement to segregate her. The Colored and Mexican people of the valley are united against the movement and an interesting fight is promised.
THE COLOR LINE HITS WORLD PEACE CONGRESS
BY: DANIEL W CHASE
(For the Associated Negro Press)
The World Youth Peace Congress in session at Ommen, Holland, went on record as bing in favor of social democratic liberalism as opposed to the Soviet brand of Communism. The question had occupied the major portion of a session, when it was learned that certain governments had refused to honor the vises of the Russian youth planning to attend the congress.
CONGRESS DIVIDED INTO GROUPS
After the question was settled the congress was divided into five groups for the intensive study of the economic, political, educational, religious, and racial aspects of the peace problem. The chairmen of the various commissions have been drawn from different racial and national groups, and each commission is supplied with a sufficient number of translators so that all discussions may be heard in English, French and German.
CALL FOR PEACE BASED ON
JUSTICE TO COLOSER
JUSTICE TO COLORED
In the racial minority group, two delegates, one from Africa, and the other from India, called for a police based on justice to the colored races of the world.
J. DeGraft Johnson, of the West Africa Students Union, eloquently testified, so says the despatches, to the fact that "the youth of all nations today are surmounting the difficulties of color, class and creed." Then addressing himself to the British youth groups, Mr. Johnson said, "To the British youths comes the challenge whether they are prepared to give the NEGRO youth a chance to evolve a culture of his own, whether they are willing to reconcile precept with example and to do to others what they wish done to them. It is hardly possible to expect peace in the world living in a whirlpool of selfishness, hypocrisy and deception, whose interests are not for all but for a few who crave the attention of the powers of the earth.
WHAT THE WESTERN WORLD BELIEVES
"The Western idea of nationalism denotes the possession primarily of military, naval and air power, but such interpretation of the world deprives many groups and communities of people, principally the coloured, of the privilege of the status of nationhood. On the attitude of the white youth toward the colored youth is to be laid the foundations of the future history of mankind."
M. Sanya of the Indian student movement, declared that the young people of India only desired a world peace based on the fundamentals of justice and free government.
Other groups took part in the discussions, out of which it is hoped some measure or animosity can be secured for a final message to be discussed before the entire assemblage.
Already it is apparent that the young people as well as adults have their own differences of opinion regarding the best approach toward the consummation of world peace. Whether or not those differences will be so sharply defined as to make impossible the formation at this time of a World Federation of Youth for peace remains to be seen.
Haiti Hurt in Hurricane
New York, Aug. 25.—Dispatches from Port Au Prie, Haiti, tell of a devastating hurricane, which raged over Haiti Friday and Saturday, killing two hundred people, and rendering 10,000 Homeless. The damage to roads, wire communications, and the public services was placed in the neighborhood of $1,000,000.
Ralphe Bunch Receives Creditable Expression
HARVARD UNIVERSITY

Cambridge, Massachusetts.
July 21, 1928
Dear Mrs. Patton:
It is good to be able to write concerning the record that Ralpe made in his first year's work at Harvard. Not only did he carry the regular schedule, but he undertook numerous outside employments, found time to publish an able article in one of the leading professional journals that received extensive editorial comment in the Boston Transcript, and maintained what I believe was the highest scholastic record in the Department of Government.
His record has, of course, been a matter of the greatest gratification to me, and he has won the esteem of all of my colleagues. It is with even increased confidence that I predict his future success. Allow me to say that your support in his interest at a very critical moment in his career has placed opportunities in his way that would otherwise have been impossible. With kind personal regards and best wishes, I remain.
Sincerely yours,
*JOHN P. SLY.*

"Arkansas Voters To Vote on Evolution"
"Arkansas Voters To Vote on Evolution"
BY: WILLIAM PICKENS
(For the Associated Negro Press)
So says a news headline—Well, what difference will it make with evolution if Arkansas votes on it? If a "Hill, Hill" votes yes, what is the difference? If he votes no, what is the difference? Evolution will not be altered by a political vote. Evolution is not a town law; if it be a law in all, it is a law of the universe. And great natural laws are not to be determined by stump speeches and ignorant voters. Natural laws are only to be discovered and understood. They cannot be influenced, altered, or repeated. If there are any scientists in Arkansas, they might be about and study the theory and the laws of evolution and see if they can understand any of it, or re-discover it—or something like that.
What could be the sense of submitting the matter of evolution to the general populace "to take a vote or it?"
Fortune Teller Catches Murderer
(By: A. N. P.)
New Orleans, La., Aug. 29.—A fortune teller's penetrating clairvoyance brought Lawrence Williams, alias Clarence Garden, behind prison bars on a charge murder. Williams was arrested by the police following information from the fortune teller whose name they declined to disclose. Three days ago Williams called on the fortune teller for a reading.
"Lawrence," she said, gazing at his palms, "you have killed a man."
"Yes, sister."
"And you're far from home."
"Not so awful far back to Birmingham."
"Well, you are going back."
He is being held for the Birmingham police. The fortune teller informed on him when an altercation arose over the pay that was due her.
WIN STRIKE AGAINST WHITE BOSSES
New Orleans, La., Aug. 20. The strike of the employees of the Ow Cab Company has been settled with all demands granted. The walkout occurred over the action of the management placing white men as overseers route men, and in charge of the cabs The Owl Cab Company, though owned and controlled by white men, employs colored men exclusively in all departments.
Fired for Third Degree
(By: A. N. P.)
Shreveport, La., Aug. 29. — Police Officer E. G. James and Detective Rom Cardwell have been dismissed by order of Police Chief Allen because of alleged third degree methods used to force a Negro boy to confess to theft.
MISTAKEN FOR FUGI TIVE; KILLED
(By: A. N. P.)
Culport, Miss., Aug. 29—Here in the land of the loose trigger, Frank Lewis was killed Saturday night by a white police officer who said that he thought Lewis was Silas Kidverson who escaped from jail last week after shooting to death John Dumbrino, an auto mobile salesman. The policeman saw Lewis in the railroad yards and thought he says that Lewis was going

(19) A. N. I. Jackson, Miss., Aug. 24—Motion was made Friday before Federal Judge E. R. Holmes at Yazoon City to set forward the trial of S. D. Redmond local attorney and business man who, with Ed. Patten, Perry Howard and others, is under indictment as a result of the so-called patronage, probe conducted at Biloxi last month.
BLOWN THROUGH ROOF BUT NOT HURT
(By: A N P.
Alexandria, La., Aug. 29.—Three Negroes were blown through the roof of a bank house of the Gilford Gravel Company near Forest, Hill. August 18, when the place was dynamited. The men, Sam Johnson, Ivory Dennis and Gilbert Rico, are not believed to be seriously hurt. Parish authorities are investigating. Labor troubles forced by white men are believed to have been the cause of the trouble.
PROTESTS KLAN PRISON ACTIVITY
(By: A. N. P.)
Boston, Mass., Aug. 24. —Charges that Ku Klux Klan literature is distributed, liquor parties dand favortism show not the Norfolk prison colony have been made in a letter to Gov. Alvan T. Fuller by Edward T. Bannon, white, who is a prisoner at the Charlestown state prison.
"The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid!"
The sincere desire of man should be to do unto his fellowman as he would that he should do unto him.
How easy it is for us to think kindly of our fellowmen when his every act is in accord with our wishes, but the test comes when his acts, desires, and wishes are contrary to ours.
THANKS!
We most heartily thank our friends for loyal support given in the campaign which closed Tuesday, August 28th.
We say now, as we said in the beginning, we wen, in to win, because it is our policy in life to try to do whatever we undertake to the best of our ability. Hence, even though Mr. Bass did not get the nomination, we have the supreme satisfaction of knowing that even to the casual lookers on, that we demonstrated to both Black and White Los Angeles that a Black man could make a clean, honest campaign in his own behalf without forming any combination with any member of the other race or doing any political trading.
With the exception of a few automobiles donated for service on election day, and three or four volunteer workers, we financed our own campaign.
So it is with a heart brim full of gratitude to those who believe in our sincerity of purpose and who stood shoulder to shoulder with us in the campaign, that we express our thanks at this time.
THE NEGRO IN POLITICS
When the white man steps in upon Negro political territory, it is, as a rule his intention to create strife between the Blacks, and soon it is the case of two dogs fighting over a bone, while they clench, the third dog comes by and calmly walks away with the bone.
Unfortunately for us, the White man knows more about our political weaknesses, than we do. He knows that it takes but a small dose of agitation for us to become intoxicated with hate, one towards the other in our political battles.
In State and National Politics whenever it appears that Blacks are going to get together for a better understanding politically, the wise ones immediately get together and some hand-picked Black Man is appointed to some post that is important in name only. He does his silk but, shiny boots and prepares himself for the many honors "in waiting" to be thrust upon him by his own, and Negro Journals all over the country herald the news of the wonderful recognition given Mr. "So-and-So."
WHAT WE NEED
Recognition as American citizens having passed the required examination that qualify us for the same, is what we need and should demand.
We have thrown off the chains of chattel slavery and, because of our application to higher education and cultural training, the time is fast approaching when we shall throw down and trample beneath our feet the chains of mental slavery. Hence we are no longer hat-in-hand, Christians, or Politicians, but free, independent thinkers and dmand that the bars of prejudices, discrimination and Jim Crowism be let down both within and without the Race, that we may walk into a full fellowship with all Americans.
PHYSART-LIT-MOR
On last Friday evening, this organization, headed by, its dauntless leader and president, Mrs. A. Hill, spread a great banquet at the Y. N. C. A. 28th and Palomia, and bade the business women of the city to come together and discuss the topic or "A Better Understanding."
Judge Georgia Bullock was the chief speaker and she gave a very timely talk on how and why we should better understand the women of the underworld.
Other speakers were Dr. Gibson and Mrs. C, A. Bass.

Approximately ninety-nine per cent

greatest barrier to economic success.
‘The hap-hazard methods used in the

times betore finding another, will not
suffice in the present day and time,
when competition for positions is- as
keen as competition in business, With
labor organizations among the other
races almost universally established,
the unorganized Negro laborers can:

of laborers.
Commonsense should tell us that
a group of people working together
through an oreanizetion to secure no:

group, will have ten chances to one
éeainst the individual, especially when
thay individual is a Negro,
By being unorganized we find our.
selves unable to compete with the or-
Fanized forces among other laborers.
This accounts for 20 many of our peo-

Work with us, because we are wnor-

We wonder sometimes why it Is
that one Negro working with one

white men, loses his position while
the white men remain on the job. The
reason is that we are unorganized and
therefore we represent the road of
least resistance, If the Negro is dis:
charged he has no redress, He ts just

look for another iob, He has no or-

But on the other hand if his white
brother loses his job he reports the
case to his organization and some-
times the matter is adjusted and he
is put back to work, or at least they
help him to find another job.
Until we can learn to organize and
help each other find positions, and
help those who are already employed
to keep the ones they have, we will
continue to be looked upon as the un-
Gesirables among all other laboring

This was never more truthfully evi-
denced than in So. Los Angeles.
‘There wag a time, and that was only
a few years ago, when So. Los Ange-
jes, formerly Watts, was a small town
of only a few scattered residences, un-
paved streets and practically no side-
walks. At that time this community
was looked upon as the most undesir-
able of any town adjacent to the city
ot Los Angeles. Few people thought
of making Watts their future home,
but today one only has to drive
through the streets of So. Los Angeles
and see the many beautiful bomes
well kept lawns, paved streets and
side-walks to fully appreciate the pro-
gréss made in this community in the
past few years. Our people of South
Los Angeles take a great deal of pride
in their homes and the upkeep of
their property. This is an evidence of
the character of people and the high
type of citizens who live here.
Many new homes are being built
and new people are moving into this
community almost every day and So.

Land, by group ownership, means wealth collectively, and power politically, and with these two requisites you will help materially in solving a most critical economic situation which is fast gaining a strangling hold on Black America. It is your most sacred duty, people, to acquire land, not only residential lots, but beach frontage and farm land as well.
LOS ANGELES COUNTY HAS GROWN IN VALUE FROM TWO MILLIONS TO SEVERAL BILLIONS IN WEALTH, AND THIS HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED IN APPROXIMATELY TEN YEARS. Do the Black Americans of Southern California own or control their share of this in proportion to population? We say, "NO!" The same Los Angeles County has more than 50,000 colored families living therein. Every race man or woman at the head of a family should have enough family pride, love for that said family, and foresight enough for his or her children to own at least $3,000.00 worth of real estate in this fast-growing county. That would give us a gross valuation of $150,000,000.00 in community wealth. Folks, when this shall have been done we will be well on our way toward SUCCESS—PARKRIDGE WILL HELP YOU TO ARRIVE.

Motor Tour Ended
After spending nearly three weeks touring through Arizona, New Mexico and western Texas, Mrs. Jifetta Cole Rollins returned last week with her husband, none the worse for their long motor trip. Their spic and span Chrysler 72 behaved like a well-spun top throughout the round trip.
Mrs. Rollins visited the principal cities of these three States, and also paid a visit to Wiley University. After seeing the young Miss Rollins safely placed in boarding school, they returned home. The Rollins are casting about for a suitable location for a home in the city. The father of Mrs. Rollins, the Rev. V. M. Cole of E. Washington St., hopes to help them toward this end.

E. Zion Church. Pico and Paloma streets is closing the third year of the present administration. Among the many things to which the church points with pride is, that she is at peace with the world. Internally, peace, happiness and a wonderful fellowship reigns over every department. The A. M. E. Zion Church is not only conscious of the spiritual needs of the people which she tries to meet with a high degree of efficiency but she is also conscious of the civic and economic problems that must be met and solved and has become a potent factor in the solving of these problems.
Since the Annual Conference is but five weeks off we invite our many friends and well-wishers to attend our services leading up to the conference. Each service will be filled with seminars and lectures and good music and singing of the most instructive and inspiring kind. September will be a history making month for Zion. Home and be your ow n nudge.

GIVES HIS LIFE TO SAVE GIRL
(By: A. N. P.)
Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 29 - William Carnell, 50, lost his life here Monday as a result of efforts expended to save the life of ten-year-old Jean Myers, white. Carnell was digging a ditch near the banks of Darby Creek when he heard the white girl's screams. He ran to the water and plunged in. About midstream he teached the child and brought her to shore. A playmate, Margaret McGee, pulled Jean up the bank. Carnell, exhausted, fell back into the water, and disappeared. An hour later his body was recovered.
R. C. A. Seeks Air Rights To Liberia
(By: A. N. P.)
Washington, Aug. 25.—Efforts to eliminate all outside competition in the field of international radio communications are seen in the demand of the demand of the Radio Corporation of America that the license recently issued to the Firestone Tire & Rubber Company of Akron, Ohio, for a short-wave service to Liberia be revoked and the privilege given the Radio Corporation, which was a subject of hearing before the federal radio commission Friday.
The license to Firestone was granted in order that the company might be able to communicate with its new rubber plantations in Liberia, where the company is making efforts to free itself from the denouiation of British-controlled rubber, but as a measure of conservation the commission ordered that it be a public service so that anyone desiring to communicate with Liberia might do so over the Firestone installations.
(By: A. N. P.)
Boston, Mass., Aug. 29. — According to correspondence made public by Robert L. Merritt, Jr., a resident of West Medford, Federal Judge William H. Atwell, who was recently subjected to much criticism because of his rebuke to a Brooklyn, N. Y., attorney, and his advice to an Italian woman and her daughter on the impropriety of whites and Negroes living in the same district, has seen it deny that the newspaper reports of the incident represented his true feeling.
Judge Atwell, is from Texas and it was charged that the sentiments he expressed from the bench were beneath the dignity of a judge and of a nature highly prejudicial to Negro citizens. Mr. Merritt wrote the judge and his letter, after referring to the report of the court episode, as it was published in the Boston Advertiser, quoted the newspaper report as follows:
"He rebuked the woman for permitting Negroes and whites to associate in her store and house. Turning to Mary de Luca, her 15-year-old daughter, Judge Atwell advised her: "White folks and colored folks can not live together. Get your inspiration from American girls who are what American girls should be." Mr. Merritt then continued: "It may be that the newspapers have misquoted you, as they are subject to making mistakes. Therefore, I shall expect you to either affirm or deny these

statements. Next, I wish to inform you that I am an American Negro citizen and proud of it, and if the above statements were uttered by you, then you have purposely insulted the great Negro race, to which you owe an apology, because it is unethical for a gentleman of your position and influence to utter such derogatory statements about any race."
Judge Atwell's reply to the above letter reads:
"I have your letter of August 13, and because of its courteousness, I answer.
"It is rather difficult to remember what one says, in exactness, but the matter about which you write is contained in precision by the court reporter.
"I have not the slightest prejudice against any man, white or black, rich or poor, and am doing and have done the best I can to mete out exact justice, when any or either of them appears before me. This affords me the easiest and healthiest sense."
The letter was signed "very earn- stly" by he judge.
I was glad when they said unto me, let us go into the house of the Lord. Let us go into the house of the Lord and pray for peace in the Nations, and the Race. They shall prosper that love the Church of God. W. L. BRANNON Pastor

LIBERTY LOAN COMPANY HAS GALA OPENING
THE FIRST WEDDING OF THE NEWLY MARRIED FAMILY AT THE NEWLY MARRIED FAMILY AT THE NEWLY MARRIED FAMILY
Friday, August 31, 1928
LIBERTY LO
Epochal in its significance to the financial future of the Nexto in Los Angeles, the Liberty Building and Loan Association established itself in its new and enlarged quarters at 2512 Central Avenue, Saturday, August 25. amid gala opening day ceremonies. The opening was a success as pronounced as that of the phenomenal progress of the Association itself during the four years of its existence in Los Angeles. Between 8th hours of 10 A.M. and 10 P.M. the doors of the luxurious new offices were kept open to the public for inspection.
It is conservatively estimated that more than 1500 visitors enrolled upon the registration books. The majority of these were to be found in the thongs which overflowed the corridors and sidewalks during the evening ceremonies.
Beautiful floral conventions; tokens of appreciative interest from other institutions and well-wishers, bed-cked of the mahogany desks and counters of the company's new offices. Powerful kleig lights, played upon the evinna's festivities, presenting a most striking display.
Enthusiasm, on the part of both officers and depositors, was the key note of the opening. Mr. Norman O. Houston, a master of ceremonies, introduced Mr. C. S. Blodgt, a director of the company, and owner of the building in which the Association has established its new residence. Mr. Blodgt gett spoke briefly, covering in a general way the purpose of the occasion and its vital significance. Mr. L. M. Blodgt-ess, President; and Mr. A. Hertley Jones, secretary-manager, followed with additional remarks touching upon the general condition and future of the organization. Messrs. J. H. Shackleford, Albert Taumann and Frank Harvey, directors, and A. L. Wells, Field Representative, spoke brief words of confidence and optimism as to the future of the corporation.
Outstanding among the occasion's several informal addresses was the spontaneous testimonial of Mr. C. P. Adams, pioneer city resident and one of the first depositors in the Association Mr. Adams delivered in a most forceful and convincing manner, a message of extritt confidence in the officers and policies of the organization, both on his own behalf and that of the hundreds of depositors. The official program was concluded with appropriate remarks by the incumbent Assemblyman candidate, Fred Roberts. Though the entire day was dedicated to the ceremonies attendance upon the opening, it is significant that the new business for the day, as disclosed by the company's books, amounted to something more than $8000.
The increasing confidence evidenced by the local Negro colony in the ability of the Liberty Building-Loan Association identifies it as one of the leading financial organizations fostered and supported by Negros anywhere in the country. With total assets of $227,955.98 and offering excellent services through its savings, investments, loans, escrow, insurance and collection departments, this Association gives to the Southern California Negro his own stable financial exchange. This Building-Loan Association is in pursuance of the recent trend of financial development throughout the nation, and under California law is soundly secured. The Liberty corporation, during the past four years, has loan over $200,000 to Negro residents of this region. An organization of such nature is a fitting tribute to the progressiveness and racial solidarity of the Negro in Southern California.
Celebrate 25th Wedding Anniversary

Racial Co-operation Is Much Needed
In the realignment of things material, there is a certain quality, inherited by the human family, which causes us to so often offer the better things of life. In order that his aim must be accomplished and serve in common to the welfare of his fellow man, one can readily understand that the combined force of any Race—merely, financially and every other available effort—will prove the most satisfactory method of reaching the principle of life.
With these principles in view, as a foundation for racial development and cooperation, there is an crossroad abad somewhere that leads to the building of a great nation sooner or later.
The foregoing address was delivered by Mr. O. E. Suttons, Assistant Superintendent of the Los Angeles Collection Department, at Liberty Hall, Division 156, of the U. N. T. A. Other speakers of the day were the Hon. A. S. Gray, High Commissioner of the organization and the Worthy President, H. Haukie.
There seems to be quite a change taken on this organization since the release of its leader from prison and who is now making a tour of Europe, presenting the Negro's Racial Readjustment to the great powers of Europe. Too much cannot be said of this great champion of human rights-Hon. Marcus Garvey.
Mass Meeting every Sunday, 3 P. M. Tuesday S. P. M.
The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. A. H. Eldridge, Mrs. A. L. Wright, sister of Mrs. Raglin; Miss Merriel Raglin and Mrs. B. D. George, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Raglin and Mrs. Willa Henry, sister of Mr. Raglin, stood with the "bride and groom." Over sixty-four guests responded to the invitations and enjoyed the afternoon. The Garrett Trio wonderfully entertained. Mrs. Willa Henry was complimented upon her wonderful cakes. Mr. and Mrs. Raglin were showered with lots of beautiful and useful gifts for which they thank their loving friends for their kindness.
N. A. A. C. P. Drive
The Post-Conference Drive for members of the N. A. C. P. did not come up to expectation because of the difficulty in scouring workers. Many of the workers are still reporting Following is a report of the six head Majors up to August 15th: Miss E. Gertrude Chrisman, $161.00; Mrs A. Hill, $110.00; Mrs. Fannie Williams, $71.50; Mrs. E. B. Liddell, $61.50; Mrs. A. Hudson, $68.00; Mrs. M. G. Patton, $47.50. Mrs. Callie B. Strowden, worker for Miss Chrisman, will be awarded the prize, having reported $85.00. The recent California State Supreme Court decision simply confirms the opinion of the Association that these cases must be carried to the Federal Court. This will require more money and more members, therefore, those workers who have envelopes are urged to continue their efforts.

Hostess Faints at Her Own Reception
While her 53 guests danced merely to the music from the orchestra in the balcony, Mrs. Marie Dorothy Rout suddenly collapsed and fell to the floor of the Hotel Somerville dining room.
The affair was a brilliant reception rendered by Mrs. Rout to Miss Althea Hardin of Florida and a sister to Dr. Friedicks.
Consternation reigned for the time being, but upon Mrs. Rout being picked up and carried to the office of a physician in the building where restoratives were applied, she soon recovered and the memorable affair continued.

NO ALIBI
We have no alibis to offer for the result of the election which took place on last Tuesday. We congratulate the winner in the 74th Assembly District, the Hon. F. M. Roberts, and with the same our best wishes for a crowning success to his legislative career.
We are reminded of a friend of ours back in Kansas who gained quite a reputation as a humorist. Shortly after we launched out in the journalistic field, he wrote 1d us as follows:
Mt. Editor: I am really of the opinion that the newspaper field has spoiled one perfectly good plow hand.
In the present situation, having since qualified in the newspaper realm, we can but think that maybe being elected to the Assembly might "possibly spoil a perfectly good newspaper man."
C. H. Alston the old war horse came down the stretch like a mighty warrior and but an eye-lash separated him and the winner.
And now our chieftain has taken the old but familiar route up Salt Creek.
The parasites and grafters will snigger up their sleeves in vain for he it known they will never receive solace nor relief at the hands of the victor—Hon. F. M. Roberts.
The Hon. Jack Bean no doubt will profit by his experience in the past campaign. He carried a candidate who failed to carry him.
Wood Wilson, manager for Col. Alston almost put him over and in defeat his work is outstanding.
Our chief will not permit us to indulge in any alibis, but we cannot refrain from saying how disgraceful it is that no better showing was made in the voters exercising their franchise, when not quite 15 per cent would come out and cast their vote.

It is said that the barrel was tapped somewhere on Central Ave. last Tuesday afternoon when Roberts forged to the forfront and could not be overtaken.
Shaw for Supervisor showed up as a thoroughbred and came into the stretch all by himself. Look out for the finals.
The victor, Mr. Roberts, is receiving congratulations by the sincere and those who are not, but that all goes in the game.
Look out for a real contest at the finals between Hewock and McClellan in the 4th; Jack Bean and Frank Shaw in the 2nd; Judge Bullock and Wm. Doran for Superior Court Judges.
The final count gave Mr. Roberts a majority of 356 over J. B. Bass for Assembly from the 74th District.

In retrospect, events may seem to have moved swiftly enough, and we may think also that other men make quick progress toward success, but it's rarely that our own fate and fortunes unfold at the pace we would choose. Our ambition lays out a hopeful course, which we are confident we can follow; our eyes have already seen the desired destination and, therefore, our heart and hopes outstrip the slow passage of events.
Interruptions and disappointments, irksome, trivial and beyond our anticipation and control, arise daily to check and prolong our labors, and it needs no less patience than endurance to weather such small storms and accidents.
But the passage of time in itself contributes to real achievement, and for this we may forgive the delays that prevent us from too headlong a course. Time permits us to mature in orderly fashion to the scale of our own ambitions; time leavens our enthusiasm with judgment and our self-confidence with proper humility; time teaches proportion and shows us where our best work belongs. This is a slow alchemy but necessary to ourselves and the work to which we are dedicated.
True patience is not merely a dull endurance of the hazards of fortune. It is rather the habit of turning to some account the changes and chances that lie in our path, so that when our high opportunity comes we may be ready for it.

It is the proud boast of business that salesmanship and the whole process of retail merchandising are on a higher plane than formerly. But there are abuses and excrescences which from time to time prove annoying and burdensome to the buying public as well as to the better merchandising elements.
Our whole system of trade and credit is far too complicated to lay down the hard-and-fast rule that all purchases must be made at home, or to charge the consumer with disloyalty if he or she occasionally makes a purchase through the mails. Yet where quality, price and service are anything like equal, it is a poor citizen who does not give much of his patronage to home industries. Certainly it is a foolish and unthinking consumer who will listen to the blandishments of irresponsible strangers and outsiders with inferior goods to sell.
It never does to say that any one form of merchandising is the best or only appropriate method. The local independent retailer, the chain store, the responsible mail order house and the manufacturer with local representatives who call upon the housewife, all have their pace. The solicitor is, of course, a welcome visitor if his goods are of superior quality. But unfortunately some house-to-house canvassing is cheap imposition. Some canvassers are frauds to begin with, and obtain entrance by misrepresentation.
There is a happy commonsense medium about these matters. A man's or a woman's house is a good deal of a castle and should be treated with respect. Its invasion for business purposes should be under responsible auspices only.

School days, school days, saddest and gladdest of the year. Saddest for children who, with the first day of school, must bid farewell to the freedom of vacation days and gladdest to mothers who then begin their vacation.
It is hard for outdoor and play-loving boys to return to school, but after a day or two they find that school isn't a bad place to be after all. The three R's are not such a bitter pill when taken with liberal doses of sports, recess games and school day's companionship. There have been two revolutionary developments in education—free schools and popular schools. Once parents could not keep their children in school. Now they could not keep them out of school. The schools, not the children, deserve the credit.
Mother breathes a sigh of relief when school opens for then she can pack the little Indians off to school and enjoy a few hours of peace and quiet, but when the summer recess arrives she will welcome relief from those two "packings" a day. Teachers who have had practical experience in getting a child ready for school can appreciate what they ask when they urge their pupils to report each session with clean faces and hands, clean clothes, hair combed and teeth clean.
Soon the great trek back to the schoolroom will begin and the shouts and laughter will not be distinguishable from those that accompanied the equally great exodus last spring.

If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened
The Weekly Survey Makers of 'Chang' Hard HEALTH-O-GRAMS
Jesse L. Lasky has pulled aside the veil of mystery which has surrounded the expedition of Mertian Cooper and Ernest Schoedsack into the hearts of Africa ever since the producers of "Grass" and "Chang" left for the British Sudan a year ago.
The four weeks since the film adventurers arrived in Hollywood with two-score reels of exposed negative the result of a year's danger and hardships, have seen a series of conferences between them, and the first vice-president of Paramount.
Today, Lasky announced that Cooper and Schoedsack had successfully fulfilled the mission on which they were sent in 1927 by bringing back, after a year's mystery expedition in Africa, invaluable pictorial material for "The Four Feathers," one of the most important and unusual pictures yet attempted by the organization.
On September 24th, Lasky further disclosed, these two adventurers will begin work at the Paramount studio directing episodes that will be woven with the pictorial material already obtained into an epical photopoly combining the best features of the natural-locale type of drama with the advantages of story-telling made possible by studio technique and facilities. In addition, the production chief revealed, "The Four Feathers" will be the first picture of this calibre to have a full synchronization with sound effects, bringing to the screen the vigorous, colorful atmosphere of the Sudan wilderness with a degree of realism hitherto unattainable.
"The secretly surrouding this expedition," Lasky explained, "was made at the request of these brave men themselves. They asked that nothing be said of their departure or the purpose of their trip until they returned successful.
"The Four Feathers" will be a production of road-show dimensions," he continued. "It marks the first serious attempt to combine the best production made possible by studio facilities with the most impressive dramatic forces in nature. It is not a travel picture. Before Cooper and Schoedsack left they had worked out with Hope Lororing a complete adaptation of Alfred Woodley Mason's tremendously dramatic story.
"With script in hand, so to speak they went into Kipling's 'Fuzzy' country, the home of the only natives ever to break the British square. Here on the shores of the Red Sea, in one of the most desolate countries under the sun, where a white man is seldom seen, they obtained some of the most dramatic and thrilling scenes ever recorded by a motion picture camera I say unreserved that: 'The Four Feathers' will far surpass 'Chang', for in addition to possessing the wild, untainted strength of that picture, it is an even more dramatic story enhanced by development within a studio, enacted by recognized screen players, and given the vigorous dramatic emphasis that sound alone can bring.
"Richard Arlen, whose work in 'Wings,' 'Ladies of the Mob,' 'Beggars of Life' and other pictures has stamped him as one of our finest artists has been selected to play the role of the young British Officer in 'The Four Feathers.' Our entire list of players has been made available for this production and no effort will be too great.
"A production schedule of three months is planned, but more time will be taken if necessary. It will require the best studio facilities that motion pictures afford to make this portion of the picture in keeping with the material already filmed by Schoedsack and Cooper.
"The Four Feathers' will have a complete synchronization with sound, which means that the thrills of the scenes laid in the Red Sea Hills home of the world's greatest fighting tribes, will be trebled. Roy J. Pomeroy, director of sound effects at our West Coast studios, is enthusiastic over the unusual opportunity afforded him."
the men prolonged the bout, possibly to about twenty minutes, it is said Smith threw down his gloves and sat that it was time for him to go home. Walking a short distance he collapses

We observe that Japan forbids Manchuria to ally with the Nationalist forces of China. The reason advanced seems to be that Japan is apprehensive lest her coal, iron, transportation, and banking interests in Manchuria will be disturbed. If the ideas of persons like Lathrop Stoddard, Senator Glass of Virginia, and the people of this country, the Orientive of the opinions of a majority of the people of this country, the Orient would do better not to bicker over the control of resources, but to combine its mighty man, power to protect itself against the expanding imperialism of the West.
Kellogg, our able diplomat, is seeking world peace. His powerful controllers, however, are averse to the League of Nations. These various forms of world peace are simply tempted means of world domination. So long as the world is infested with those who feed on war, i.e., the Rothschilds, DuPonts, buyers of War Bonds, etc., thousand of young men will die. The masses do not bring wars. If they controlled themselves, there would be no more wars. The real warriors are those who control the State. They desire peace only on the condition of domination. It is difficult to consider, Kellogg as not conforming to these general ideas.
The quadrennial two ring circus of Tweedle-dum and Tweedle-dee is now in session. The barker for last week, and this week, was Herbert Hoover. His address was a simple matter of statistics and ideals. However, the ideal of the universal franchise was not expressed. He did say, though, that the "Republican platform" gave the pledge of the party to the support of labor. It indoles the principle of collective bargaining and freedom in labor negotiations." (Italics ours) This statement ought to be remembered. It should be well considered in connection with labor conditions in the Canal Zone.
"Equality of opportunity is the right of every American—rich or poor, foreign or native-born, irrespective of faith or color. My, what hopeful and hope-inspiring words! Yet, in the writer's experience, Stanford is the epitome of the contradictory of the words, and Stanford prides herself upon being the incubator of Hoover's ideals. Conditions about us believe the actuality of the enjoyment of the right of "equal opportunity." The efforts of the last seven years of the Republic can party cause a hope of such enjoyment to be almost foolish. Even so of two evils, it may behoove us to choose the lesser. The problem then, lies in the recognition of the lesser. Mr. Hoover may well elucidate further as to how, in the light of almost no opportunity for us, he will achieve equal (i mean "equal" in its simple meaning, not in that placed upon the word by the United States Supreme Court) opportunity for us.
The assessment evil in Southern California has its talons well fastened upon the throat of the small landowner in certain parts of this section. The system is to put expensive pavement in poor localities, and then to bleed the owners. Perhaps, at some far distant date, government will exist for the debtors as well as for the creditors. We can at least so hope. There appeared in "The Christian Science Monitor" for July 13, 1928, an article entitled "The Case for Quick Justice." It seemed to be an argument for a widespread self-governing bar. It pointed to the virtues of the English and Canadian systems. This is hardly the place for a review of the development of the system mentioned. Suffice it to be said that unless there can be a positive and warranted assurance that the racial attitude expressed by the American Bar Association and by numerous local associations, including that of Los Angeles, will not permeate the argued for system, such a system will be abortive of the tota of justice now given to this country's racial minorities.

We have noted with some amusement a discussion of women's dress fads in one of our morning patrons. One writer predicts the return of women to their former condition of slavery. We hardly think that will happen, but if she continues for a few generations along the lines she has started and remedies the few faults of her present ensemble, she can easily develop into a more fit specimen of the species than the male. Her clothing offers more freedom of movement, more evaporation of moisture, better circulation and decidedly less likelihood from germ inflection than the clothes of the male. We see quite a few extremely high heels on the street yet. But note an increasing number of the common sense low sport shoes.
Let us call your attention to the high heels and what they can do to your body. You who wear those abominations find a picture of a woman wearing high heels that is a side-view draw a line from head to feet through the center of body. This is exactly the same as the line of equilibrium, which is maintained in your own body to offset the force or gravity. Now note a few of the abnormal things caused by high heels. The curvatures of your spine are not where they should be normally; the internal organs are not in proper alignment and fast, but in no wise least, note carefully the fact that your line does not pass through the center of leg bones to the soles of the feet, but runs gradually forward and passes through the instep. This portion of your foot was not intended, nor can it, maintain the weight of your body without sustaining an injury. So ladies be game sports when these things happen, which we will mention, and don't lay the blame on your work, your husband or anything other than where it belongs, on your vanity in trying to make a number seven foot look like a number four by wearing high heels. These are a few of the things you may suffer: displacement of pelvic organs, constipation, flat foot or broken arches, corns and clubbed toes.

WHY GREAT MEN HAVE BEEN
BY: VERNON E. S. BRUNSON
What makes men great? Is it not the deeds they do deeds of helpfulness to humanity? We gauge the great by what they have done. We dig out the story of their lives from birth to death, print it in books—a record of struggle and final attainment; for others to build their lives by.
To go back to the title, "Why Great Men Have Been," let us trace the lives of those who have won the honour or admiration of their fellows. Their life stories are almost identical—it is either the long struggle first or last, and their greatness. There have always been obstacles, hardships and other handicaps in the way of those whose names and deeds are perpetuated in the hearts and minds of humanity. In all races of men we find that greatness is achieved by the willingness of the worker.
Fate will not make a man great if he has no ambition to be. The fact is it is not Fate at all, for if one has anything in this world to do that is really worth while doing- and really desires to do it- there is nothing that can against his will.
Let no glance back through the periscope of years gone by. Let us just take a general view of the lives of those whose history we study—first the youngster; all conditions around him tending to hold him in the dust. There is nothing encouraging in his environment, no one to lead a helping hand, but does he give up bone? His history shows us he did not. He had an ideal, an ambition. As he worked at filthy tasks, and has taken the abuse of those around him, he is thinking of his future. Then comes the youth, still working, still striving onward-fighting insults and all adverse conditions; that would try any man. We see him again near the close of his life, his goal attained. We see him honored by all men—a great educator, a great statesman, a great writer, or a singer whose golden voice stirs the souls of all mankind.
It took the hard knocks of the world to make these great men what they were. Had life for them been soft and easy; had they have had everything for the taking or asking—would they have been great? No! it takes adverse conditions to make men great; it takes men who have that character back of them that made them press on when all the world around was against them. Hardships make great men in the end, if the men have that spark or wanting, to be, within them. That is what has made these men great.
To the youth of today: If you think you are having a hard job of it—you are forced to work in the ditch when your mind is among the stars—"Just take heart, fight on; the best is yet to come." These hardships that seem to thwart your ideals and visions are teachers. They test your steel. If you ring true, you're allowed to go on and win your heart's desire. Fret not at the conditions of the present. It has been these things that have had their place in the lives of all men who have become great among the great society of man. If—again, "if you have that desire, such as they, don't give up—show good of the mettle that is in you, and you will take the high place of the future. That is what the great of our race and all others, who have been really great, have done." Great men have been through their courage: their courage to fight the obstinacies of life.

THIRD ANNUAL PACIFIC COAST TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT TO BE HELD.
Well Folks, the most eventful days of the year in Tennis circles have about arrived for all of our champs and would-bes. Yes, Sunday and Monday (Labor Day), Sept. 2nd and 3rd, "all of Caesar's forces will be able to display their superiority over the Gallic forces." The above occasion is the staging of the seventh Annual Pacific Coast Tennis Championship matches at the Pasadena High School tennis courts at Colorado and Hill Ave. on the two above named days by the Western Federation of Tennis Clubs.
Play will begin promptly at 9:00 A. M. Sunday, Sept. 2, and continue until dark. Mon. Sept. 3, Labor Day, play will again start at precisely 9:00 A. M. and will continue through until the tournament is completed which in all probability will be about dusk.
The entry closes at 9:00 P. M., Sat Sept. 1st at 643 E. Santa Barbara St. The draw will be held at precisely 9:00 P. M., Sept 1st, according to the Bagnall-Wild System at 643 E. Santa Barbara.
There will be seven championship events in all, two in addition than ordinarily heretofore, Men's and Women's Doubles, Mixed Doubles and Boys' and Girls' Junior Singles. These last two named events were carried out so successfully two years ago that it was thought by the "Fed" after having dispensed with them for a year, that it would be an excellent idea to open these two events for amateur competition again.
Players not wearing regulation white tennis apparel will be disqualified. The "Foot Fault Rule" will be rigidly enforced.
The entry fees are as follows: Men's and Women's Singles $1.00 each, Men's and Women's Doubles both $1.50 per team, Mixed Doubles $1.50 per team, Juniors $5.00.
This year's tournament promises to be the largest in the history of the West. Quite a delegation is "migrating" down from San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley and thereabout to participate in the Annual Fracas, and believe me they really are enthusiastic and possess an oversupply of peep. Therefore the Angelene fans will have to reinforce the locks on the "Old Trophy Case" and if necessary add "Balls and Chains" in order to hold the much coveted trophies in question this year. A "warm time" is being planned for these "Northerners" upon their invasion of the Southland in the line of entertainment, etc it is rumored that many of the old timers will enter the fracas.
Two of Our Tennis Champions Unable to Participate
The two biggest disappointments of the tournament will be the inability of fans and spectators to view Queen Juliaette L. Harris and King James (Slick) Stocks in action. These illustrious stars are undoubtedly the two best tennis players of our group in the West.
Miss Harris' inability to play this year is due to her entrance in the California School of Chiropody this fall in San Francisco, where she is scheduled to be before the staging of this tournament. She left for the northern city this week in company with her family including her brother James, who will enter U. C. at Berkeley preparatory to medicine. While Mr. Stocks will be unable to return in time for the tournament he having gone to Bordentown, N. J., to participate in the Nationals this year which were held Aug. 20-25 inclusive. The writer has received no detailed account as yet of the results of the Nationals but King James (Slick) Stocks it is ruined sure "raised sand" back there.

Brice Taylor Goes To Southern University
(By: A. N. P.)
Baton Rouge, La. Aug. 27. —Southern University announces the appointment of Brice Taylor as head Athletic Coach for the session 1928-1929. He is known best as having been a member of the University of Southern California athletic teams for three years during which period he won letters in the four major sports in colleges, was chosen as a member of the All-American Football team by Adam Welch of the International News Service and the coaches of the Big Ten, and won the sobriquet "The Man Who Stopped The Four Horsemen." Mr. Taylor was a member of the University of Southern California track team which smashed the world's record in the 440 yards in 1925, and which in 1926 won the f. C. 4 A track championship. His coaching life has been in the hands of Glen "Pop" Warner, Howard Jones Knute Rockne, Ema Henderson and Denf B. Cromwell.

I assure you that it is with an humbly bowed, bared and reverent head and adpensive mood as well as a contrite heart that I bid you all adieu.

"Kick In." Willard Mack's famous crook drama of New York's underworld, opens at the Lincoln Theater tomorrow night as the second production to be given by the famous Lafayette. Players, the greatest company of race artists in America. The Lafayette Players, under the direction of Robert Levy, founder of the group, will stage this production in an elaborate scale, equalling the original New York presentation of the play. Los Angeles theater-goers are already familiar with the plot of "Kick In" with its stor of crook life and the "inside workings" of New York's crime fighters. Two of the four acts in the play take place in the Deputy Commissioner's Office where wide interest has been aroused in the movements of Chick Hewes, a reformed crook whose earnest endeavors to "go straight" all seem to meet with serious set-backs.
Chick marries "Molly" and shortly afterwards a valuable necklace disappears and the thief's sweetheart, finding him wounded, persuades Chick to hide him in the attic of his house, where he dies. The necklace is shortly afterwards discovered by Chick to be in possession of his wife's brother, a done fiend.
Through being double crossed by a detective of the force, Chick and his wife face a long prison term in connection with the disappearance of the necklace, and the clever manner in which they "side-step" this unjust punishment furnishes "Kick In" with a series of highly dramatic incidents. "Kick In" is a clever blending of comedy and pathos and has all the qualities that go to make up genuine, one hundred per cent entertainment. Sidney Kirkpatrick, who scored such a hit in "Rain" last week, has one of the leading parts in "Kick In," and the rest of the Lafayette Players will also appear in the production, including Evelyn Preer, Edward Thompson, Lawrence Criner, Cleo Desmond, Bebe Townsend, Charles Olden, Arthur Ray, Monte Hawley, Laura Bowman and others.
Following "Kick In," the Lafayette Players will stage "Here Comes the Bride," the comedy that kept New York laughing for two entire seasons. After that there will come "treene," "In Old Kentucky," "Gettini Gertie's Garter," "Madame X" and other well known plays.

Nat Rucker and Mary Hawkins winning men and women's dashes, Joe Williams who ran such a close second in the three-mile street race, the Jeff Hi-Y team of acrobats, Edith Martin
MARION KRAFT ran hard and lost but only from lack of proper training. Others who lent valuable hand toward making it a great success were Louis Cole and Lawrence Lamar, as assistant referees, also Champion Neal Clisby, as time-keeper and his brother as assistant. Also those who gave the first prizes on the list were the independent Rubber Co.; Brown and Hart, tailors and haberdasher; the Home Hardware Co.; Ceylon Tea and Coffee Co. and the People's Store, at 9th and Central, that donated red R to Rayford's Red Sox.

THE BLACK SPORT WORLD THROUGH THE EYES OF HAMILTON ART
In a slam-bang battle from gong to gong. Santiago Zorrilla, the little Panama boy, beat Freckle Joey Sangor, in ten rounds last Tuesday at the Olympic.
The bout was one of the best ever seen in the Angel City, and the house was packed and how!
It seems as if Santiago's lucky number is three. It took him 3 bouts to heat Bud Taylor the Blonde Terror. In his first set to with Taylor, Bud took a clear-cut decision over Zorrilla, but they fought again in San Francisco, and Taylor took another verdict over the dusky kid, but this time it was by a hair line. Then they were matched again in Frisco on the 17th of July and the Panama kid put the Terror on the shelf with a badly mussed up map.
The same story goes for Joey Sangor. Zorilla lost to him here, then again in Milwaukee Joey took a newspaper verdict over him. But it was too bad for Joey last nite.
Bud Taylor and Joey Sangor are the only fighters in the U. S. that can claim decisions over the San Blas boy and now even those wins are winged off the slate because of Zorilla's recent wins over these two boys.
They started right in from round one and punched themselves, goofy. Sangor didn't seem to be hitting as hard as usual and Zorilla was hitting harder than ever.
In the fourth Santiago stood on a dime, weaving and bobbing making Sangor look foolish. At the beginning of the fifth, Zorilla backed Joey into a corner and shot rights and lefts to his head faster than you could count. For a while it looked as if the freckle faced kid would drop but he rallied and evened things up.
In the ninth and tenth it was gloves and more gloves as both of the boys were fighting for all they were worth.
All in all it was a wonderful bout.
Beyond a doubt Zorilla is the man to fight Long Canzaneri.
Young Jack Thompson got a chance at the big time Wednesday, the 29th, when he was matched with Joe Dundee, welterweight champion in a non-title affair.
Young Jack has been going like a house a-dire since he left Los Angeles for the East.
Thompson has a big following in Chicago and he hasn't lost a bout. Nothing but class to the kid.
Give the boy a hand, folks, he's going great.

Los Angeles has been satisfied. At

many moons just for a high class com-

LaFayette Players. These people

The Lincoln Theatre, which has a

capacity, so eager are the people to
pay their respects to them. They de-
serve it.
One cannot begin to really tell just who was responsible for the success of this presentation. Every parr depended upon how well these details were worked out. I'm telling you, everything was jam; I mean! The characters couldn't have been better cast. The actors couldn't have been better selected, and, the scenic props could not have been placed, arranged or produced more real. What are you going to do with a show like that? Sketches have been routed. The people have demonstrated in large numbers by their presence and their applause, that they are going to support it.

WILL THE DRAMA TAKE IN LOS ANGELES
It is here at last! For the first time in the history of the local colored community, legitimate drama by players of the race is being presented for the acceptance or refusal of colored audiences.
Mr. Curtis Carpentier, versatile manager and Mr. Samuel Kramer, intrepid executive of the New Lincoln
Theatre have shown unusual judgment in bringing the nationally famous Latyette Players here to play a repettoire of best famous stage success.
It is being done in the nature of an experiment with no former precedent to judge from. Will it take? Yes! From the eagerness with which the public received the news that "Rain" would be the first vehicle, from the intense interest with which the audience sat through the unfolding of its gripping story; from the hearty applause and from the general discussion of the play on the streets and in the homes, the "light" has taken well. In spite of the fact that musical comedies, burlesque, and minstrelsy has supplied the greatest measure of our theatrical appetites, there has always been a large percentage of the Negro populace that craved drama of the higher order and many others whose minds are open to be educated into a taste for it. The field is large. The Negro actor equals any race according to Belasco and with the success of the plays planned by this wonderful company interest will grow greater and greater until Los Angeles will be one of the best fields for our own theatrical talent in the United States.
MILDRED WASHINGTON writes from Oakland that her dancing team is going over like a housea-fire.
Curtis Mosby gave a farewell ball last Thursday night marking the closing of his famous Blue Blowers at the Lincoln Theatre, and their opening at a down town theatre. As usual, Brookins Auditorium was packed.
CHAS. ADAMS who was the original manager of the famous Jazzland Cafe Caharet, two years go, giving Los Angeles its first big Nite Club, has again thrown open its doors to the great throngs that visit its beautiful putitanical minister of the gospel. His people proclaimed him signifying by their applause for this most excellent work, that his return was a most triumphant one. When we watched the work of Mr. Criner, we felt like shouting, Drama! Drama! Give us more!
Mr. Skidney Kirkpatrick, of whom critics have on numerous occasions placed at the top of the heap, came through with flying colors, in the role of the trader. Horn. It was at the hotel of trader Horne, where most of the scenes were laid. The language used with his method of delivery as well as many of his philosophical observances on life, quickly esteemed him in the affection of his audience.
Miss Cleo Desmond was outstanding in her role of the narrow, doting wife of the Rev. Davidson. Her work was superb. Her was the difficult task of assisting toward the climax by her endless persecution of Sadie Thompson.
Mr. Chas, Olden, as Dr. McPhail had one of those broad-minded roles of a man of learning who sees things not much in the particular as in the general. Here his strong sympathy for the greatly harrassed Sadie, quickly won him to his audience.
Mr. Edward Thompson, as Sergt. O'Hara of the Marines, played the juvenile lead and got over big as the sacrificing lover of Sadie Thompson.
Mr. George LaVigne and Monte Hawley, as the rest of the Marine Corps, made the atmosphere quite soldierly while they were around. Their loud dawning at what they thought in their soldierly way was a joke, was the real thing. Nothing but a soldier or sailor could laugh in that fashion.
The Rain scene was so many in the audience, a miracle. They not only heard but saw actual water falling. No, gentle reader, it was not a trick, it was the real stuff.
Too many interesting features of this play present themselves to me to tell you more. If you haven't seen it, go see it! If you can't see it, that's too bad for you, because you really missed a good one.
Other members of the cast included Miss Bebe Townsend, and oh! I pretty nearly forgot Miss Laura Bowman as Ameena, the fat wife of trader Horn. Her role was a masterpiece Excellently cast and brilliantly acted Other were Arthur Ray and local extras, including Larry Stead.

Charlottesville, Va., Aug. 28—State Traffic Officer William N. Hatcher, 26, came off second best when he stopped Charles Shepherd on the side of the road to question him about a murder he was suspected of committing. The officer had his gun drawn and so did Shepherd. One of the policeman's bullets struck Shepherd in the leg, but three of the fugitive's slugs hit the officer who died from their effect a short time later.

"RUNNIN' WILD" OP ENS AT MASON, SUN.
SENSATIONAL BROADWAY
MUSICAL COMEDY SUCCESS TO BE SEEN IN LOS ANGELES
Another 'hit' scored for All-Colored cast shows. This week, beginning Sunday, Sept. 2nd, the world's famous Runnin' Wild Show will open at the Mason' Opera House. This play, originally by Miller and Lyles, brings to the Coast a most brilliant array of Colored stage talent.
This is the same show that satisfied a pleasure mad New York populace for one year; that satified the Jazzmaniacal fervor of Chicagoans for a stormy six months and that managed to stave off the blue law advocates of Boston for rancher six months. They are here, folks, and for your benefit.
Included among the cast of this distinguished array of talent are: Gallie De Gaston and Amon Davis; Broomfield and Greeley; Gertrude Saunders; Lottie Gee; Edith Spencer and Radcliffe; and Claude Collins Harold Baquet, Ia Duncan, Dudley Dickerson and Runnin' Wild Four and 3 Dancing Allis. They are booked for 4 weeks.
Miller and Slayter Chorus Girls Make Decided Hit With Jazzland Patrons
At each show put on by the management of the Jazzland Nite Club, the Revue offered by the Miller and Slayer chorus, wins a heavy hand. The crowds continue to flock there, for their after-theatre dance and entertainment. Ample space is always available for the largest parties. They offer a clean place, well-ventilated, with clean food.
REEL---PREVIEWS AND REVIEWS
TWO PICTURES NOW BEING CAST TO NET RACE GROUP HOUSANDS OF DOLLARS
Here's where the Race begins to realize some of the economic benefits of th Motion Picture industry. Not only will those who actually work in these pictures collect the cash for doing so, but thousands of others who never saw a picture made, will enjoy, these selfsame fruits. Business will take on a decided spurt when a couple of hundred of these boys begin to splurge themselves free from so many bucks.
It is estimated that between 2 and 3 thousand colored people will be used in a forthcoming picture to be made at the Paramount Studio. This picture having its setting in Africa, will use almost entirely native types.
Over at the Culver City Studio of the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Co., King Vidor is to make an all-colored feature picture. According to Mr. Rose, who will be Mr. Vidor's assistant this picture story, will be an ordinary story of Negro life in the South. There will be no ludicrous exaggerations to offend the Black Race, nor any silly racial comparisons to antagonize the white race. There will not be a white person in the picture. Only those colored people capable of being them selves will be used. Wake up Gang get on your toes!

THE THOMAS TRACYS IN WEEKEND VISITS
Last Sunday Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Tracey came to Los Angeles to pay a few visits. Among those whose homes they graced was that of Miss Myra Parker of E. 40th St. Miss Parker, is one of the very close friends of the Traceys.
Mr. Thomas Tracey was formerly one of the gayest of the Junior Club set, being at one time prominently identified with the Adelphio Club Mrs. Tracey was formerly Miss Anna Taylor, one of the most popular of Pasadena's Junior Set. As it is now she still holds her way among the Junior Matrons. The Traceys have an infant son, Ross Taylor Tracey who was born to them last July 5th. The child has been alluring for some time past, with a slight stomach illness which caused the Traceys to stay in. He is quite well now and we might expect frequent visit from them.
COLLEGIANS RETURN HOME
two very prominent young men who formerly were the delight of the Junior set here, slipped quietly into town last week. Thomas Southern, who completed his high schooling at Poly High here and left to further his education at Wilberforce is back home again. Word came to us from time to time, concerning the activities of the audacious Tommy. They told how he made history on the gridiron there and also how he was keeping up his little irresistible mannerism. He comes back armed with a Junior Certificate and a full-fledged member of the Kappa. Alpha Pi fraternity to prove that he was in College.
The other member of the prominent prodigals is none other than the much honored Ralph Bunche. Every one knows of the wonderful record Mr. Bunche made while a student at U. C., L. A. How he finally finished with honors and a scholarship to Harvard. Yes, Mr. Bunche comes back to us with a A. B. degree from 'Death' ol' Harvard. Now that most of the prominent young folks are aware that these two popular gentlemen are in town, watch the young ladies get busy vieing with each other in feting them.

The music furnished by the Orchestra of Alton Redd's Pards of Pepper, is about the best offered for dancing in town. They play like they never get tired. The management's slogan seems to be, give 'em plenty of dancing, that's what they come here for. The Thursday, Saturday and Sunday nights only program seems to be insufficient.
The other entertainers including the eccentric red-head and Miss Black Bottom continue to please.
You and your friends are cordially invited to attend the Eighth Annual Piano Pupils' Recital of Mrs. Belle O'Neal, one of the oldest Teachers in the City, teaching for fourteen years in Los Angeles. There will be tots ranging from five years on up, some of whom are little artists. Come and see how prettily babies can play the piano when well taught. Come early because some of them might go to sleep. Because of moving from my old neighborhood, after years standing, ill health and a street car accident, I lost my famous old class with the exception of a few. This is a new class. Come and see what I have made them do inside of two years. New location, 1552 East 52nd Street; Phone AXridge 1773.

O WONDER TUNNEY RETIRED FROM RING
SOME DAY THIS YOUNG JACK
THOMPSON WHO FIGHTS HERE
TONIGHT MIGHT MEET
BY: STUART BELL
(The Press Sports Editor)
Listening to Mr. Ray Alvis, the honey-tongued broadcaster of Chicago who machine guns words instead of bullets, one gets the idea that Young Jack Thompson is the greatest fighter, white/or black, that ever dragged a leather sole over canvas.
Mr. Thompson is not only one of the main-bout performers in the Taylor Bowl ring show Wednesday night, but if Alvis is believed without question, he is the whole show and the other gentlemen will only be in there to complete the card.
Mr. Alvis' word will have to be taken, at least in part, for Thompson's skill, but letting Mr. Alvis' ballyhoo go for Sweeney, the colored youngster must be a pretty fair fighter.
WELTER CHAMP NEXT ON
He is fighting a tough egg Wednesday in Gene Cardi, who has never been knocked off his feet and, it is reported, likes to bore in and meet an opponent more than half way. But Thompson is going to fight a tough gentleman, Aug. 29. The name of the person is Joe Dundee, who happens to be welterweight champion of the world. The match is scheduled for Chicago where Thompson has burned up everything except the beer joints and the fact alone that a mere colored boy can get a match with the champion and help draw an estimated gate of $50,000 stamps Thompson as more than an ordinary pug.
*Reports about Thompson other than those spread by Alvis have sifted into Cleveland. Mr. Joe Lewis, who promotes shows for the Olympic Arena, has seen Thompson perform and Mr. Lewis says Thompson is a bellvauln fighter. We don't know why Mr. Lewis should boast the card of a rival arena, but he did, probably not knowing his opinion was going to get in cold type.
Thompson, one hears, is different than all colored fighters. He is not only greater than Joe Gans and Jack Johnson but he is the McIntyre and Heath of the square circle as well.
**JACK LEARNED ABOUT FIGHT RACKET FROM DAD**
Most colored fighters don't have any "feet," which is a ring term for footwork. They are generally flat-footed and make up for the lack of shifting ability with exceptional hand-blocking and crowding.
But Mr. Thompson, it seems, can move around like Paylowa. He gradu-

ated from high school in Oakland, Cal., and holds records there in high jump, broad jump and 100-yard dash. He is trained by his father, Scipio, who owns the half interest in Jack that Alvis doesn't own. Jack started to take lessons from his father when he was 12.
Scipio used to be a fighter and trained with Gans among others. He taught Jack a lot of ringcraft he picked from the old masters. Should Jack take one on the chin he could go into vaudeville and more than get by with black-bottoming and Charlestoning at which he is adept.
He probably will underweigh Joe Dundee when they meet for he has been fighting at around 138 to 140 pounds. Being too heavy for the lightweights, Alvis is trying to build him up to wetterweight proportions and he expects to have a tough job getting Thompson to 148, the stipulated weight against the champion. His fight with Cardi will be his first over 140 pounds.
Some of the boys are picking the Thompson-Cardi go as a better one than the Vince Dundee-Meyer Grace fight, but as both are of three 100-round headliners, there really isn't any top spot for the athletes to get jealous about.

RAILROAD CLATTER By
U. S. BOARD MAY HALT RAIL
STRIKE
Differences between Western railroads and employees organized in the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen and the Order of Railway Conductors are expected to be reconciled by an agreement announced here today by the United States Board of Mediation, which has been discussing the questions at issue with representatives of both groups since July 22.
The proposed settlement, details of which cannot yet be made public under the law, must be ratified by the Association of General Committees on behalf of the railway employees before it goes into effect.
PULLMAN PORTERS GET HOUR
ON RADIO
The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters which embraces 8000 porters in the Pullman service and which has just passed its Third Anniversary, August 25th, has been granted a Pullman Porters Hour over W-E-V-D every Friday afternoon. According to A. Philip Randolph, General Organizer, every week a programme will be presented consisting of Negro singers and musicians, together with talks on the Pullman Porters' fight for a living wage, as well as on the general service of Pullman Porters. The General Organizer said that it is our purpose to educate the public also on the fact that Pullman Porters cannot rely upon tips for a living; that tips are uncertain, as shown by the fact that one porter may make $25.00 a month in tips and another less than $5.00. During the Pullman Porters Hour some of the most notable Negro artists will appear.
MECCA FOR THOUSANDS
A record travel this season to the Grand Canyon is reported by Jas, B Duffy, General Passenger Agent of the Santa Fe who states that more than 60,000 passengers have been taken to the rim of the great natural wonder by train alone during the past year. During the same period there were approximately the same number reaching the canyon by privately owned automobiles, although the latter travel is confined to a period setting in about April 1st, and will be continuous until October, the rail travel goes on every month in the year.
The significance of this heavy business to the Grand Canyon is declared by the passenger official to be proof of the high type of tourist travel that is coming to the coast and of which Los Angeles derives a greater percentage and benefit. These attractions as well as the Indian Detour the Carlsbad Caverns, Petrified Forests, Painted Desert, etc., are adver tised extensively and are conducive to all year travel to Los Angeles and California, it was pointed out.
SCOTTS RETURN
Mr. and Mrs. Ovid Scott returned Monday evening from a brief honeymoon spent in San Francisco. They were honored with many social functions that rounded out a week of meriment for this popular couple. Mr. Dave Paul, Red Cap at the Southern Pacific Station honored them with a house party on Wednesday evening. Mrs. Scott who is noted for her musical ability was asked to render some special numbers at the A. M. E. Zion Church, Mr. Scott also rendered two vocal numbers. The bride and groom are home to their many friends, 11632 Peck St., South Los Angeles.

The opening of these luxurious rooms tends to prove that the establishment of the organization is seated on a foundation. The spirit of co-operation was demonstrated by the great number present pledging their support by paying their years assessments.
BROTHERHOOD NOTES
The Anniversary Celebration was a huge demonstration. The Pullman porters were enthusiastic when they were informed by the General Organizer that the Strike Committee was watching the strike maneuver of the Western Trainmen and Train Conductors with great interest and that the action of the Committee would depend on the outcome of the Western Trainmen situation. Mr. W. H. DesVerney, Ass't, General Organizer, denounced the "yellow dog" contract and urged the men to refuse to be misled by the Company Agents in signing away their rights. Special Organizer, Frank R. Crosswaith told the large audience that the Brotherhood is killing the Company Union on the Coast and that there was no hope of the Plan to live in New York or the West.
The main address was delivered by Mr. Julius Hochman, leader of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union. His eloquent and instructive address was well received by the large audience.
Roy Lancaster, Secretary-Treasurer, pointed out that the young porters were joining the Organization as rapidly as the Pullman Company hired them.
Organizer Randolph declared that the Brotherhood was making great headway toward getting a charter in the American Federation of Labor and is steadily building its strike machin-
