1879 CALIFORNIA EAGLE 1929 J. O. Dudley Not Guilty The jury which has been engaged in hearing the testimony in the case of the People Vs. J. O. Dudley, since last Wednesday, and to which body the case was submitted at 12:40 p.m. Wednesday Juicy 3rd., after deliberating from that time, including its luncheon hours, returned a verdict of Not Guilty at 4:20 in department 24 presided over by Judge Carlos Hardy. The case was stubbornly contested by able attorney, Deputy District Attorney Richardson for the people and Willis O. Tyler, and Attorney Vissel for the defendant. It is said that the outstanding feature of the trial was the eloquent and dramatic address to the jury by Attorney Willis O. Tyler. Seldom have the halls of justice resounded with such a fervid and telling appeal as the one presented by the Attorney on this occasion. The acquital of Mr.Dudley brings to a close a most fortunate and heart breaking event and as twelve men and women good and true, after due deliberation, have held Dudley innocent, all must bow in humble accuence to the law of th land. Th shooting of Willie Armister, well known young man who had a host of friends at Dudley's place of business, 281 Central Avenue, occured on May 17th. Trouble arose over young Armister's hitting Dudley's car parked at the curb. The dispute lasted for several hours, resulting finally in the shooting of young Armister as he stood on Dudley's door sill. Dudley is a prominent and prosperous business man and a hight official in the church. His plea of self defense was accepted by the jury and he was acquitted. NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE HEADQUARTERS TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, ALABAMA WEEKLY NEWS SUMMARY OF THE NEGRO ECONOMIC CONDITIONS (COMPILED BY THE NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE) The week of June 17th was epochal and significant in the development of Negro business. With the formal of offices in Chicago, the newly organized Supreme Liberty Life Insurance Company makes a most promising beginning. This company represents a colossal merger of three Negro insurance companies. The Supreme Life of Columbus, Ohio; The Liberty Life of Chicago; and the Northern Life of Newark. According to President Harry H. Pace, the new company starts off with 20,000 policy holders and 4,000 stockholders. It will have a paid capital of $400,000, assets $1,500,000 and insurance in force $25,000,000. Wilson Lovett, Louisville banker, has been elected Treasurer of the consolidated company. THE CAROLINA TIMES announces the organization of the Mortgage Company of Durham, a $250,000 corporation, with Pearson, Spaulding, McDougald, O'Kelly and other North Carolina business leaders at the helm. The company will sell stocks and bons and make loans on Negro property. The CIHICAGO WHIP and other Negro papers continue their fight to gain labor recognition for the Negro from the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company which "carries more insurance companies combined".

Freman, 27 years old, of 1934 Central Avenue, was killed this morning when struck down by a Pacific Electric train at Fiftieth Street and Long Beach. The motorman told police the radio dealer apparently leaped between the trucks of the first car of the four-car train, and the officers believe it was a case of suicide. A TRIBUTE TO TEACHERS BY CARL ECHOLS "I am glad," said Plato, "that I was born a freeman and not a slave, an Athenian and not a barbarian; but most of all that I was born in the age in which Socrates lived." This is sribute paid by one of the world's greatest philosophers to his teacher. Teeachers are an indispensable element in the human society. To them is trusted the most important work of the world—the training of minds, morals, and physiques. Teachers are human. They realize the incapability of pedagogues in attempting an infallible judgement of any student's inherent ability. (Nor is anyone qualified to determine the extent of another's capacity.) But the instructor must make some kind of an estimate, and the well known GRADES are the result! Yet, why blame the teachers? : They too are victims of an educational system which is overburdened with "traditions of the elders." The true teacher is a humanitarian; and like many of the world's benefactors, they are too often neglected and unappreciated. Any student of Pedagogics or the History of Education is familiar with the names of such educators as the following: Aristotle, Euclid, Pestalozzi, Herbert Spencer, Horace Mann, and so forth; nor do we aim at dimming the lustre of their fame. But the thousands upon thousands of teachers that labor in silence and obscurity deserve mention. Since their number is too great to give each one honorable mention, may we compensate for this by entertaining in our hearts a bountiful supply of goodwill and gratfulness for them. To belong to the noble body of Teachers is an honor indeed. Some of society's greatest institutions were built by—Teachers. And was not Christ a teacher? To mention the names of Confucius, Budda, Mohammed; of Booker T. Washington, Santayana, or Dewey, to conjure up the memory of some of the world's greatest builders—Teachers. May the conscientious teachers some day receive the recognition and remuneration that they deserve. And may their good work never cease. 13-YEAR-OLD SCULPTOR TO STUDY SCENIC BEAUTY Petit Doris came in Sunday morning over the U. P. and is summer house guest of her aunt and uncle, Editor and Mrs. J. B. Bass Doris is a June graduate of the Vineyard Street school of Providence, R. I., and a student of the Rhode Island School of Design, where she is specializing in sculptural and art work.

We love our flag, We salute our flag, Of red, white and blue! WEDDING PLANNED FOR AUGUST —ENGAGEMENT REVEALED AT LUNCHEON. One of the lovely affairs of recent date was the bridge luncheon given by Mrs. Cornelia Leggette Bradford, one of our most charming teachers, and wife of Detective C. N. Bradford. The occasion served to announce the betrothal of Miss Hazel T. Gottschalk to Attorney Leon L. Whittaker. The decorations wer elindeed unusual, and the bridal table was a work of art. Each tiny place card revealed to each guest the date of the approaching ceremony which is to be on the evening of August 21. The bride-to-be, a teacher in our city schools, and the organist of the First A. M. E. Zion church is the niece of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Edwards, and a graduate of the University of California. While Attorney Whittaker is the grandson of Mr. and Mrs. J. Robertson and also a graduate of the University of California, having received his doctor of jurisprudence degree from that institution. Mrs. Bradford was assisted in receiving by Miss Consuela V. Bright, Miss Jauntia Ellsworth, Mrs. Iren Freeman, Mrs. Lena Tucker, Mrs. Edith Kemp, and her mother, Dr. Anna J. Leggette. GUESS WE "WENT" WRONG AGAIN OR POSSIBLY WERE TERONED. Possibly very few persons are wise to the noun "Te Rone," especially so when it is seen in the columns of a newspaper. However, the word carries the meaning—you are in a position with no possible chance to win and your opposition will surely win. Be that as it may your writer journeyed up to the temple of justice, with his lamps trimmed and burning in quest of justice. We were firmly of th copinion that one whom we term as a red neckcracker officer who works out of the Newton street Division whose name is P. A. Goetterg treated the California Eagle delivery car unjustly when he gave the driver a tra...c tag while making the regular Friday delivery of the Soaring Eagle to the numerous news stands. The car only stops, momentarily to discharge papers at the various stands and on this occasion less than a minute; such was the testimony at the hearing on last Tuesday. Yet this minion of the law swooped down and made a flying tackle and nailed the Soaring Eagle Delivery Car for a touch down. Now we thought it was unjust for the reason we had violated no law, our only recourse was to seek justice in the court by going to trial, instead of putting up $2.00 acknowledging the violation. We would have wagered that no California judge would have upheld this said prejudiced officer, but lo and behold we had reckoned without our host for we happened to go before a judge from Ku Klux ridden Alhambra, and what he said and did was a plenty. He not only sustained the red neck cracker officer but when we cited to him that we had made this delivery for nigh unto 20 years, he rebuked us by saying, "It makes no difference to me if you have made it for 100 years, you are not going to get any consideration in this situation." Now we're not saying the judge whose name is Morthiut is prejudiced against us or anyone else but he made the remark just the same. We also cited him the fact that this paper had always been a consistent supporter of the law and published in our columns hundreds of dollars worth of publicity yearly for the tra...c commission. All of this fell on deaf ears not unlike the water upon the back of LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY JULY 5, 1929 J. William E. Easton who for 15 years has held the largest state position held by our group in California, that of Custodian of State Offices in Southern California, leaves for a deserved vacation for the entire month of July. Mr. Easton is one man of the race who has studied the welfare of his people, without any consideration of its political effect. It was way back in 1906 when Mr. Easton, representing the race caused the newly elected Mayor Harper and his council to pass an ordinance, making the penalty for discrimination in public places a cause for the loss of their license to do business. As a writer in this city since 1901 he has always advocated the Negro taking high ground. He has stood firm against taking political program without opportunity to assist in making the program. Of late years he has ever stood close by as a fearless defender and a capable, silent adviser. As he goes forth on vacation, his influence and high appreciation is ever present. PATIENT LEAPS TO DEATH New Orleans, La., July 1.—John Erfen of Kenner, La., killed himself by leaping from a window on the second floor of Charity Hospital. He had been confined in the hospital for several weeks with an incurable disease. This situation obtained despite the fact that the evidence placed on the stand was overwhelming to the fact that the car stopped less than one minute. Therefore we are forced to the conclusion that we failed in our quest of the sort of justice which we are wont to expect in California and received the sort that is dealt out to colored citizens in Mississippi, Alabama and Texas instead. We also want to go on record with the statement, that it will take more than the red neck cracker policeman to stop the delivery of the California Eagle. Just why in our own district he will single out the Eagle-Delivery Car and pass up the Record, Express, Herald and other newspaper cars which make the same sort of deliveries is an explanation which will eventually have to be answered. A White Woman Arrested In Mississippi! Gulfport, Miss., June—(By the A. N. P.) Tom Cates and Pete Lewis are in a serious condition in a local hospital caused by being struck by an automobile driven by Mrs Greta Losago, a white woman, of Baton Rouge, who has been arrested and charged with wreckless driving and causing injury. It is said she was driving at a high rate of speed and crashed into a car on which the two victims were working. Bar Association Program Completed Detroit, Mich., June—(By The A. N. P.) President C. Francis Stradford, Secretary Ivan C. Mollison, and Deputy Director Herman E. Moore, Jesse S. Heslip of Toledo, Ohio, met all of Chicago, and Regional Director the leaders of the Halan Law club in Detroit, Saturday, and arranged the program for the National Bar Association, sessions to be held i n the Auditorium of the Young Men's Christian Association, August 1st and 2nd. Albert B. George of the municipal court, of Chicago would deliver the principal address at the public mass meeting to be held Friday evening, August 2. Judge George, who is the only judge of ourl group elected in a city-wide election will speak upon the subject, "Experiences in the Administration of Justice." Mr. Charles Mahoney, prominent attorney in Detroit, will introduce Judge George. At the daily sessions many legal problems will be presented and discussed. Judge James S. Cobb of the municipal court of Washington, D. C., will present some legal subject of interest. William C. Todd of Cristobal, Republic of Panama, Raymond Pace Alexander of Philadelphia, Pa., R. E. Stewart of Muskogee, Okla will also lead discussions of various legal topics. Churchmen Take Affairs To Court New Orleans, La., June.—(By The A. N. P.) A temporary restraining order to prohibit David Madison from taking up collections in the Morning Star Baptist church and from interfering with the church services, has been applied for in civil district court by Arthur D Moore, president of the board of trustees. Madison and other persons, according to the petition, are attempting to get control of the church from the duly constituted board of trustees and the deacons. The president also charges Madison has assumed the leadership in the move and has illegally appointed preachers and gone into the church and made collections. He is said to have created a disturbance by illegally collecting contributions. FINDS DEAD BODY ON VACANT LOT FINDS DEAD BODY ON VACANT LOT (By The Associated Negro Press) Atlantic City, N. J., July 1.—A man identified as Brown, who is said to have resided at 5 Brooklyn Terrace, was found dead in a vacant lot at Illinois and Mediterranean Avenues, Monday, by Patrolman Hodges, who first thought the man to be asleep. Police say they learned that Brown had been drinking heavily. The body was taken to Donaway's morgue for positive identification. Say Negro Girls Breaking Down Prejudice (By The Associated Negro Press) Atlantic City, N. J., July 1.—Samuel Allen, Industrial Secretary of the New York Urban League in his address to the graduates of the Indiana Avenue Girls' Vocational School, Thursday night, declared that the colored girl was gradually overcoming prejudices and continually occupying new fields of endeavor. He said this was not only true in the field of education but also in the industrial life of the nation. Trained colored girls are being employed as stenographers, bookkeepers, and clerks in increasing numbers. He urged the necessity of holding onto the jobs they get and to do so the work that should they leave the job another colored person would be hired in the place. He also urged his hearers to get all the training possible. Mr. Allen told of how, through the Urban League at Boston, he persuaded the Boston Rapid Transit Company to give colored men a chance to be motormen and conductors, and how these men were making good. Organize Colored Merchants' Association Tulsa, Okla., July 1.—(By The A. N. P.) Twelve Negro merchants of Tulsa have organized themselves into "The Colored Merchant's Co-Operative Association," and are buying staples co-operatively. They are not yet doing newspaper advertising but have use dhambills featuring each store. The Association meets once a week to discuss business problems. Of the pesons lynched 1 was white and 3 were Negroes. The offences charged was rape, 2; killing plantation owner, 1; not removing rubbish from in front of store and resisting officers of the law, 1. The States in which lynchings occurred and the number in each state are as follows: Florida, 2; Mississippi, 1; Tennessee, 1. A few days ago my attention was called to the sidewalk in front of my constant lase of operation—I noticed a rather sleepy looking little Mexican boy seated on the back of a rather rickety toy wagon; standing long side of him was another boy of a different nationality who continued to tease the little Mexican by pulling his hair and slapping his face. The dark boy warded off the blows and pulls by shaking his head and lazily saying, stop, but on with the sport went the other lad, until finally the ire of the Mexican was awakened to its full height. The lazy look of his eyes was replaced by one of fire, and his seeming innate sluggish attitude was replaced by one of dynamic action, and soon his blue eyed victim was at his feet writhing in pain. Is the Negro like the sleeping Mexican lad tired of the torture of lynching? Do I see him shaking his head in silent disgust preliminary to striking the blow that will liberate him from the lynch law and other forms of mistreatment not accorded, other Americans of lesser value to this Government. * * * The trus road that leads to the abolition of lynch law is bordered on the north by culture, on the south by education, on the west by wealth, and on the east by serious thinking. Let the Negro walk therein and in the near future will be no reports as to the decrease of lynching. Last minute news announces the appointment of young Willie Middleton as Law Librarian, In the District Attorney's office of the County of Los Angeles. THANK GOD FOR A CHANCE.

THE CONCERT "From the Brain of the Negro" planned and directed by Prof. Elmer C. Bartlett, Director of the famous First A. M. E. Choir, which he presented on last Monday evening was an effort that will form and stand as a golden page in Negro history for Los Angeles. The program with a variety of song, verse, decoration and oration stood out for thought and genius, and easily placed Prof. Bartlett head of a new school of thought. Those who were privileged to hear this program suggest that Prof. Bartlett make it an annual affair.

Pacific Coast Building-Loan Association has paid out $336,098.61 as interest and dividends during the past year, according to W. R. Knox, who is agent for this organization at Watts. This amount represents earnings on millions of dollars accumulated for home ownership thus this mutual guarantee association Announcement has just been made by A. A. Anderson, secretary of the Pacific Coast, of the eighth semiannual dividend at the rate of eight per cent per annum, paid to all membership shareholders and guarantee capital stockholders. Although a comparatively young association, with its main office on the tenth floor where it does not attract the passer-by, Pacific Coast has achieved a nation-wide record for growing: totaling over $6,000,000 in assets in four years, without merging or consolidations. "The progress of Pacific Coast has been steady during the past six months, in spite of the fact that business in general has been very quiet," said Mr. Anderson. "Our savings plan required of all borrowers has proven especially sound during this period, as it has enabled those borrowers, who have had financial stress, to meet their loan payments, which in some cases would have been impossible without this savings feature. Through this plan the borrower has an annual assurance that he will be able to get out of debt." Pacific Coast adheres closely to the fundamental ideals of building and loan established in this country about a century ago, by offering borrowers a mutual, profit-sharing loan plan, and by giving investors a good return on their money, with a high degree of safety. Thus every body profits by its progress. Much of the growth of Pacific Coast can be credited to careful and conservative management, and to the adherence to these sound ideals. The officers and directors of Pacific Coast are C. E. Paris, president; F. C. Noon, vice-president; A. A. Anderson, secretary; W. L. Biersach, treasurer; P. N. Nunn; Ross E. Hall; Richard Sachs; George H. Barnes; J. G. Hell. HEAR DR. A. J. GRIET OF NEW YORK HEAR DR. A. J.

SMITH MANAGER SERMONETTE BY A STAFF REPORTER On last Sunday morning we listen in over human radio system at the Independent church of Christ to what we considered one of the most telling sermons that we have heard in many moons. We were too late entering to near the actual text or where it was found, but we did get the theme and it sank deep into our mind. It is needless to say that we were interested from the very start, as Dr. N. P. Greggs, the dynamic preacher of the Pacific Coast gives all that is within him to his followers, and upon the occasion already mentioned he was like a new voice in the wilderness of mis-conception of real Christianity. Said the speaker, the church too long has directed men to center their thoughts and hopes on the starry crowns and golden slippers they shall wear when they get. to heaven, but PETER H. BURGESS EST. MONEDOR MODERN EQUIPMENT, SYMPATHETIC AND ECONOMIC SERVICE TO ALL. Phonn: WEstmore 2060 say unto you, at this time; if you would prepare men for heaven, you must first point out a way by which they may live happily and comfortably while on earth. How do you expect to create within a man a desire to walk the Golden streets of heaven when he has no house to live in down here and no job with which to earn what he needs to purchase a home. Why Golden Slippers and all of heaven's niceties when he has nothing here, not even the comforts of life. Teach men how to live on earth, and I say unto you that if they inherit rightly the earth the Kingdom shall, in time be added. Dr. Greggs was addressing the Benevolent Society of the church of which Mrs. J. E. Porter, wife of Dr. J. E. Porter is in the moving spirit. The days' program under the management of the Benevolent Society with Mrs. Pryor in the chair as mistress of ceremonies was a marvelous success. BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH— 4714 Hooper Avenue DR. H. D. PROWD, Pastor Our Sunay school opens at 9:30 a.m. The 11 o'clock services this Sunday will be of special interest. Subject "The Christ that Endures." Come early and praying for a blessing.

I attempt this June series of ser- mons with one desire uppermost in my mind; it is that I may carry a word of hope to those who feel their need of a greater life and more light. I am conscious of the magnitude of the following subjects, but God being my helper, the Holy Spirit my guide and with my best effort and co-operation I shall tackle them. PETER H. SUBJECTS . The Natural Man . The Rational Man . The Psychic Man . The Spiritual Man . The Son of Man as Man . The Son of Man as Idealist . The Son of Man as Teacher . The Son of Man as Healer HON. CHAS MUSSER SPEAKS FOR MEN'S DAY AT HAM- ILTON M. E. CHURCH Men's Day will be celebrated at Hamilton M. E. church, E. 18th street and Naomi avenue, Sunday, July 21st, and there has been prepared a great program for the day.

In the evening, Don Carlos Musser, scholar, educator and prominent radio speaker, will deliver the address of the evening from the subject, "Tapping Your Own Infinite Source of Supply." Mr. Musser needs no introduction to Los Angeles, for his radio addresses are listened to with the greatest possible interest. In addition the famous Men's Chorus will render their delightful music for the occasion. This is an opportunity that does not come often. Los Angeles is invited to attend this day of days.

N. II. A. From The Cleveland Plaindealer By INEZ WALLACE. I used to have hopes that some day when I got to be a big girl, I would acquire sense and description and not go prowling around in off places in search of adventure. But I'm getting kinda discouraged—because the moment I'm told that a thing is dangerous or, "Don't do it," that's the thing I must do, or die. And so it happened that one afternoon I was having tea, in Kingston when the American Ambassador chanced along and sat down to chat with me. I asked him about Marcus Garvey, a name I had heard discussed frequently, and said I'd like to meet him. Our worthy Ambassador threw up his hands, forbade me to go at all and if I did go, I must have ample escort—say half of the British army in Jamaica. So as soon as he had left I decided I would go at once, and asked the hotel clerk for directions. He did not know—which in the tropics means that he did not approve of my going. But as I walked out onto the veranda, a native bellboy at my elbo said "Madame wishes to see Mr. Garvey." Just get in a hansom cab and any driver will take you to him—we all know him. His place is at Edelweis Park, Cross Roads St. Andrew." So that was it. I took the cab and started for the Kingdom suburb, reviewing what I had heard about his unusual personality. Marcus Garvey, In case you do not know is the hope of Africa—the self-appointed liberator of all the Negroes in the world, no matter where located. His slogan is "Africa for the Africans" and he is president general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association—an organization devoted to the uplift of the Negro race and the restoration of Africa to "her own people." He served a term in Atlanta for defrauding the United States maids and was deported to Jamacia on the steamship Tivives. March 5th, 1927. This, of course was in the way of collecting funds for his personal movement—and he claims he was "framed" by our politicians and sent up on a technicality. Anyhow, he served his time and wrote books and worked in prison and became a martyr in the eyes of his people. His Newspaper The day he sailed his first newspaper called "The Negro World," appeared on the streets of New York City. We had deported Garvey, it seems, but his paper stayed to represent him with the American Negro. The paper was characterized by its editor (Mr. Garvey) as the "Voice of the Awakened Negro." It sold like wildfire in New York, especially up in Harlem. When Mr. Garvey's boat landed in Jamacia, Negroes from mile around were crowding the decks long before sunrise to welcome their hero. They literally carried him to his new home in Kingston. Down from the hills they came rich and poor 'alike, to greet him—the man who was doing so much for them. On March 30, his first newspaper appeared in Jamaica. He calls it "The Blackman"—and Hollywood it self could not have done better in picking a title. It sells for a penny-half penny—3 cents in our money. And does it sell? Before it is dry from the presses. One of its headlines reads, "How the Negro must Meet Organized Hate," and accuses the whites of trying to exterminate the Negro race. That the Negro is a downtrodden person, kicked around, sold into slavery and his rich lands wrested from him by mercenary gain, are some of the claims of the Hon. Marcus Garvey. I wondered if there could be any truth in his assertion. I wondered—and then, "This is the place, Miss," my driver said and we turned into a gourgeous plantation, feminine of a stage set for a southern show—only more ornate and colorful. I ran up the steps and into a huge office, where girls worked on typewriters and secretaries and executives hurried back and forth with files and papers. Everyone of course, was colored—and for a minute when I first went in, there was a breathless silence—then a secretary stepped up and offered me a chair while I informed him that if Mr. Garvey had any word to send back to the American press, I would be glad to take it. His Office Five minutes I waited and then was ushered into his office, and let me say that no bank president in New York has a longer line of pages and lackeys than Marcus Garvey. He rose and looked at me impersonally, almost defiantly—and then I realized that perhaps as a result of his beliefs, he has a great animosity for the white person. But he is a gentleman. I held out my hand which he took very solemnly. You see, I had come to talk to the man—not to just look at—him tho I believe even that is considered an honor in Jamica. "Many of my people are illiterate," he said, "but it behoves us who are educated to look out for them and their rights. They deserve world recognition and a place in the League of Nations. Chinamen have China, Indians have India, every race in the world regardless of color, has a place to call home—but what has the Negro? Nothing. Africa belongs to us and we are going to get it. If a Negro gets into trouble in a foreign country he has no ambassador to help him out, because he has no nation. God put the Negro in Africa—all the conditions there are suited to him, but the white man has driven him out. We will change all that. We will have a country and stay in it—and have world representation." I asked if he believed in the races mixing and intermarrying as they do in Jamica. "No," he said. "Socially we should not mix for that way we lose the strain—but before 5 o'clock we should meet on business and diplomatic lines—as equals. "Some people think I want to go back to United States. I have no desire to do so except as a private citizen. The rotten politics of America was a source of great trouble to me. But I have many followers there—I have 10,000 in Cleveland and 20,000 in Cincinnati." And of Jamica? "What will eventually become of Jamica?" I asked. "Will it be a white man's land or a brown man's land thru intermarriage?" "Neither," he answered, promptly. "It will be a black man's land—tor the white cannot live permanently in the troplets—they should stay where God intended them, in a temperate climate." "Have you any bitterness toward the United States of America?" I wanted to know. He thought it over. "I have much bitterness toward certain individuals in the States," he said and I let it go at that. Just why this is so, I could not figure. We don't want Africa, even with all its diamonds—and the British already have Jamica, so why the feeling of the Negro against us? Well, perhaps it's the memories of Atlanta. Marcus Garvey speaks highly of the British government—though it watches him like a hawk. They say they do not fear him but they keep in close touch with his movements. It's an interesting situation. They have the army rule but they are in his territory. Perhaps they feel that if he ever does break loose, it will mean he will go to Africa—and in the meantime, they are just standing by. Each one flatters the other—but one can think what they like. Diplomae. His Advice Mr. Garvey gave me two books, autographed. To Miss Inez Wallace, with compliments of Marcus Garvey. They are the "Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey"—or "Africa for Africans." One of them carries afoot note, in caps: "MY ADVICE TO ALL WHITES: KEEP OUT OF AFRICA AND ASIA: GO TO NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICA AND AUSTRALIA, STAY IN EUROPE BUT REMEMBER GIVE AFRICA A LONG BERTH FOR ONE DAY GOD AND HIS HOSTS SHALL BRING PRINCESS OUT OF EGYPT AND ETHOPIA SHALL STRETCH FORTH HER HANDS! On the way home I rode past his residence—a house where beaded curtains hang from the doors, a touch of the Africa he loves. And in his front yard is a huge colored statute. Marcus Garvey is one of the best educated Negroes in the world. His ambitions, as stated by himself, carry conviction to anyone with intelligence. He has some things to recommend him, principally his vision. Whether this SNAP IN PASADEN N. E. SE SNAP IN PASADENA PROPERTY N. E.

The Pleasure Loys' club gave a very successful dance at the Womans' Club House at Venice, Wednesday, June 26th. Many of the Bay District and elsewhere were present. Mr. Cox is president of tails organization. Sunday, July 7th, in the afternoon the Utica Jubilee Singers will give a program at the Municipal Auditorium. These splendid singers make their second appearance on the beach. A few weeks ago they gave their first local program at the Calvary Baptist church. It was such a success, and so much enjoyed, that the people of both races have recalled them. The auditorium was obtained through the good will of the City Commission and the singer through the courtesy of Calvary Baptist church. The following churches are represented in the Bay City District: Tae First A. M. E.; located at 19th and Michigan avenue, pastored by Rev. Robert House; Calvary Baptist, 6th street between Broadway and Colorado, pastored by a very capable minister of God, Dr. W. A. Jones; Philip's Temple, C. M. E., stands at the corner of 4th and Bay streets, Rev. W. M. Seldon is its very good leader and pastor; First Baptist of Venice, located on Westminister at 7th. This very beautiful church edifice is pastored by Rev. G. A. Miller. Worth Telling the World! Direct from Factory! Brand New, 1929 CHANDLERS SIXES EIGHTS Direct from Factory!

NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE (Continued from Page One) ly of the CHICAGO BEE, in charge. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER has broken into PRINTER'S INK as a full page advertiser. The National Urban League reports a net gain in labor conditions for the month of May. The Culinary Waiters Company of St. Louis, which trains waiters and waitresses, reports that it has placed 89 Negro waiters in five hotels and country Hotel which opens in St. Louis, on August 1st. The colored Merchants Association of Winston-Salem, operating their growing stores as C.M.A. STORES, reports "business good" and nine new members. "Negroes happily are beginning to see their wisdom of cooperative merchandising" complements the ST. LUKES' HERALD. Continuing, the editorial says, "They have been driven to it by the merciless competition of numerous chains. The first big cooperative experiment among Negro merchants was tried in Montgomery, Alabama. It is proving entirely successful and profitable to the merchants." Negro newspapers continue to demand a chance for the Negro graduates. The INDIANAPOLIS RECORDER believes the employment problem of Negro youth is a "problem for the Negro people." We "howl over the fact that Negroes are not turned wholesale into general industrial and commercial institutions" of the nation whole the race exerts little or no effort to "create or build institutions in which Negro youths may learn the practical operations of industry, commerce and trade." The CHICAGO (Ill) WHIP says "The professions (among us) are becoming saturated. Business must be built or we will remain in our abominable status of a race without a backbone." The DAYTON (Ohio) FORUM believes that "the race spends enough money for the necessities of life to provide vocations for our graduates if we only had the business complex and would enter the commercial life of the nation." THE PITTSBURGH (Pa.) COURIER says, "We earn money enough to have a strong and flourishing group economy, giving employment to thousands of our young men and women as clerks, bookkeepers, stenographers, foremen, forewomen, etc., but they haven't got it. By our negligence we are helping to kill the spirit of our youth while wasting our time speculating about what Hoover will do, going to first one convention and then another, improving our bridge and poker games, struggling to get automobiles and staging 'stomps'. It may be possible for a group of people to amount to something with such tactics, but it is exceedingly doubtful." Meanwhile thoughtful Negroes are pondering over the words of Secretary of Interior, Wilber, who in discussing future plans of the Bureau of Indian Affairs says, "Leadership should be given the Indians, rather DIRECTORY---NOTICES Phone: Office & Res., HUmbolt 8401 Hours: 8-9 A.

Editorial MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION A GOOD OMEN Keep up the spirit of cooperative effort and the solution of your economic problems are sure. It is a good omen for this situation when the pastor of the largest church in our city, calls a special meeting of his membership and the public to participate in a conference along these lines. If others will but follow we are sure to get somewhere. MAYOR PORTER AT THE HELM Mayor John C. Porter takes up the reins of our city government under the most favorable auspices, that is to say, with the best wishes, fervent prayers and support of $90\%$ of the poulace. That he has a huge task before him there is none who will dispute. However this man appears equal to the occasion and if he in anyway lives up to the policy which he has broadcast, he will truly make for Lis Angeles the outstanding chief executive of all time. We appreciate his frank and sincere manner and we are constrained to believe that he means to do just exactly what he says. His word has gone forth that he will be the Mayor for all the people, and that neither race, creed nor relation will be in any person's way, and you cannot beat that. We are satisfied that wrongs will be righted in our city government just as fast at it is possible for our new mayor to do so. We are concerned to the end that intolerant conditions should be corrected not only in our police department, but in all other departments as well. We look to the abolition of any blank list in the civil service. Likewise we look to the hour when color will be no bar for promotion in the police force. We look for a fair and square deal and with a broadgauged, honorable, upright christian gentleman, such as John C. Porter has demonstrated himself to be, guiding the Ship of State, all of these things and even greater things will surely come to pass. HIGH LIGHT IN BUSINESS: CURTIS MOSBY OUTSTANDING This is an age of progress and to keep step with this essential, all angles of legitimate business should be our goal. In this connection the status of a member of our group who has qualified, and is giving a highly creditable demonstration of his genius in the person of Mr. Curtis Mosby, director of the far famed Mosby's Blue Blowers, is worthy of special mention. Give us more of his calibre and your old question of economics is solved. Makes Record If you can vizualize when we inform you that Curtis Mosby paid out to employees of his race $74,142.00 during the past eight months, you will be convinced as to the soundness of our statement. This phenominal record has been made in clean, high class legitimate business, the conducting of a high class nite club, known as the Apex Club located at 4015 Central Avenue. Every race loving man, woman or child can be proud of Mr. Mosby's contribution to the economic situation and feel complimented themselves in doing so. Mr. Mosby has 78 employees upon his weekly pay r$oll, and without question is the largest of any other not only of Los Angeles, but of the entire Country. Of the 78 persons employed 72 have families, who depend upon them for support. He also has in his employ men who have been with him for more than a decade. As Mr. Mosby is solving the economic problem, let others follow in his wake, in and through the avenues which they are best qualified to serve. WORTHY INDEED There has never come to our attention a more meritorious and worthy proposition which is entitled to the fullest consideration of the public than that of Mr. T. J. Cotton, who is the author of a small book which has just been placed on the market. This in itself of course, is but an ordinary occurrence. But with Mr. Cotton it is far different. He has a large family consisting of eight persons. He was in the bloom of health and about four years ago was suddenly stricken as the result of an accident and received a broken back. His eldest child at that time was eleven years of age. How he managed to survive is but one of the enigmas of his tragic situation. He lived on. He goes about now encased in steel and moves in agony and pain, but he had ever consistently insisted he must DO SOMETHING and has never asked alms. His fifteen year old boy caught the spirit and enlisted in the continental marathon; for he said: "I must win this race to help my invalid 'Dad.'" Little Tobie did not win the race, but the fact of this fifteen year old boy's running across the continent and with the entry of some two hundred seasoned runners, and gaining 26th place, is one of the greatest feats of all time. The inspiration and thought which carried him on was—"I must win this race to help my invalid father." Now then the father, T. J. Cotton, wrote the story and has had printed ten thousand copies, and we are certain and sure the people whose attention can be gained in this situation will gladly purchase one or more copies of this book. When we note such situations and the actions of Rev. A. P. Shaw, Rev. N. P. Greggs, Rev. A. T. Hines, The Forum and others, giving this young man a boost to help his "invalid dad," we say truly good will reign with mankind. KING OF SPORTS When a sport is so entrancing that it calls man away from his sleep for the greater part of the night, hypnotizes him into making a long automobile drive, keeps him going throughout the chill, sunless early morning hours in mist-covered, wind-blown swamps, lakes and woods, and then sends him back to town, tired, sleepy, wet, bedraggled, and yet able to do a day's work despite these sacrifices and labors, there must be something to that sport that hasn't been fully fathomed. Doesn't the title of king of American sports belong to fishing rather than to baseball? The diamond game is. to be sure more organized and spectacular, but wouldn't a national census show more flies cast than flies caught in a season? While rabid, the baseball fan does not compare with the true disciple of Izaak Walton in his mania for his beloved recreation. got a glimpse of the face next her she arced into the next seat.

Yes, one man di the thoughtlessness of the people, or it cou Calvin Coolidge and Herbert Hoover have brought new prestige to the gentle art of angling, and their patronage of the art has made them brothers to a large fraternity. While former President Coolidge was a fair-weather, vacation fisherman, his successor seems to be a fiend for the sport. Izaah Walton would have gloried in a convert who discarded a luxurious yacht for rod and reel and prefers to spend his week-ends along a mountain stream rather than in the white house gardens and drawing room. SEASON OF RELAXATION If the Revolutionary shibboleth "United we stand, divided we fall" held true today, it is feared the nation would fall even more completely than the "one-hoss shay" and House of Usher. This new national schism is not so much political or geographical as recreational and vacational. No civil war looms on the horizon nor has the fight for states' rights reached the secession stage. The lack of unity and coherence is noted in other phases of the national life. At this season of the year the American people are a nation divided between golf, swimming, baseball, motoring, and just loafing, and the American home is a house hold divided between vacationing in the mountains or at the seashore, with mother's people or with father's people, economically or extravagantly, on the go or in the hammock. Probably the inevitable debate provides the entering wedge of discord and incompatibility in more happy homes than does the idle roomer or night out with the boys. However, there is one thing for which the nation might well give thanks. There is complete and absolute agreement that all should take a vacation and that as much of the summer as possible should be devoted to anything but work. COMMENTS BY: W. J. WHEATON COMMENTS BY WHEATON The increasing large numbers here, together with a vast preponderance of men, have created an acute, economic, social and moral problem which demands the attention of the state. So spoke Will J. French director of the department of social relations, at a recent meeting of the Governors Council. The statement was in relation to the influx of Filipinos and the system used to induce them to engage passport to the United States. According to the report of the director of the department of industrial relations, the greatest inducement held out is, "that they will be able to associate with white girls." He quoted from a Manila newspaper as follows: "As every one knows, what the Filipino youth craves most, besides academic and scholastic successes, is a sociable time with a pretty, young lady. He is a naturally associable and romantic being, and unlike his Japanese and Chinese brothers, he is Occidental in every respect but appearances. Vivacious young American girls fall harder for the Filipino boys than any Oriental young men living and studying in these good old United States of America." * * * * When Eve in the Garden of Eden bit into the apple and came in full possession of forbidden knowledge, it was up to her if she listened to the wiles of the snake and "fell for him." In order that the "problem" created by this, Oriental, Occidental contact may be correctly solved, it will be necessary to find out just how willing both parties were to create it. If it is as quoted, there would hardly be any sense in deporting the Orientals because the species Occidental would follow in the next boat. There can be but two reasons for the favoritism of the Filipinos. One is; that the young male of the occident is lacking in the little social amenities which win feminine approval and, the other is. that the girls of the Occident are a very gullible sort. One splendid thing is, that no bullet ridden bodies are found swinging from tree limbs and no bond fires lighted or a human roasting. All which shows civilized intelligence. It does seem too bad that we people should be so obsessed and impregnated with racial prejudice that it has virtually become a national nightmare. And I say "we people" because I have heard derogatory remarks made when some "patent leather headed 'Filipino' carried off some Negro's 'teasing high brown.'" Tragical as well as amusing things occur on the people's motor transportation, the street car. The bare traits that underlie human nature are exposed unknowingly. Adults and children display them unwittingly. Enter two young matrons with progeny approximately the same age, six or seven. One of the youngsters refuses to sit where the parents wish him to. He creates a scene that may be reproachful, as well as sympathetic eyes are focused on the embarrassed young mother. No endearing terms or cajoling offers of confections would pacify him. She had to drag him off the car. Quite in contrast was the behavior of the other. When spoken to, in a voice modulated but firm, there was immediate obedience. The difference was obvious. Training at home. Then there was the woman in afternoon attire. Evidently; she was on her way to some club function, who could not see the fact of the man who was reading a newspaper but there being but two seats vacant, preferred the contact which seemed least to spoil her gown. When she LET THOSE WHO LABOR AND ARE WHITE COME UNTO ME LET ALL WHO LABOR AND ARE HEAVY LADEN COME UNTO ME got a glimpse of the face next her she arose rapidly and slid into the next seat. When she passed out there were several soiled spots on her costume. She had occupied the seat with a man who worked in tar and had not removed his work clothes. An evident case of color prejudice. Two young girls of adolescent age sat in front of a rather crusty old gent and commence to comb their hair. Some of the stray locks must have flown in his face and caused him to say something about them making "their toilets at home." An elderly woman climbed on with difficulty. No empty seat; not a man, young or old, nor a woman, offered her a seat. Yes, one man did: He wondered at the thoughtlessness of the people, or it could safely be termed selfishness. The appreciative glance in the eyes of that elderly person was ample pay for any inconvenience. * * * * * Is the "Spirit of 76" yet alive, or has the spirit been dissolved in the national melting pot? Yes! We have plenty of noise. Fire crackers and the like. Noise making devices and other things which enrich the coffers of the merchants. Aliens who have no conception of the day and what it means to the nation, shoot off the fire crackers and make lots of "Whoopee," but few of them know why they do it other than they are free for the day from toil and can make merry. How many of us are thrilled by the impassioned, "Ring, Grandpa! Ring!" or "The Battle of Bunker Hill." Very few: Yet we were more than thrilled when we sat and listened to a programme of patriotic songs and declamations offered by Negroes. Thrilled, because of the wonderment of it all. Here was a people who had little cause for their exuberance of national patriotism. They are living under a government which propagates racial antipathies, yet they extol its virtues. They sing praises of its emblem, and while it covers them with glory, they are environed with intolerance. They sang of its freedom, knowing that the wall of racial prejudice segregated them from a rightful participation in its activities. But they sang the national anthems and declaimed the patriotic verses as only true Americans can. No trace of bitterness ran through the speeches, nor in the songs. But, "My Country,' Tis of Thee," and "Land of the Noble Free," came out with a volume which left no doubt of sincerity. It might be that they had vision of the past when Salem was at Bunker Hill, or of those faithful blacks who were ever at the side of Washington. It might be that the spirit of Crispus Attucks hovered near. Whatever may come; whatever danger may threaten, this country is safe and the spirit of "76" never die so long as one descendant of Negro heroes of Freedom's Dawn remains. As civilization progresses the protest against industrial and economic conditions of the mass becomes more evident. Education is walking hand in hand with the demand for conditions which make smoother the path of the toiler. The old time strike, where intimidation and physical force were used, is a thing of the past. Brains coupled with brawn negotiate; mediate and arbitrate until some condition is reached agreeable to all. There was an English statesman who said, "That national injustice is the surest road to national downfall." This country is learning that the stability of government lies not altogether in its police power, but rests solely on the contentment of the masses who toil and create its wealth. To that end it has created mediation boards, arbitration contracts which enable employer and employee to air their differences. The board is the final referee. Negro workers are but beginning to enter the fold of organized labor. Their entrance has at all times been opposed by workers who were recent arrivals of alien extraction. Lately a friendlier feeling is existing. The porters and workers on Pullman cars have received a charter from the American Federation of Labor and are in full affiliation. Labor can make no progress when it refuses to recognize one third of the toilers. It must be a case of all men up. Antipathies of race or color should be thrown in the discard. The entrance of the Pullman porters presages the dawning of the enlightened day when it will be realized that in the final adjustment it is proper that all be prosperous and content, for on the infallible scales of infinity one human being is equal to another and in the scheme of things, just as important. CITY PEOPLE SLEEP. TOO The big city may be wild and wicked in the imagination of those who live far from it. a place where the inhabitants spend their nights carcusing and their mornings sleeping off hangovers. But in the records of companies providing electricity which keeps the bright lights burning, these cities are just great big villages. FRIDAY, JULY 5. 1929 Woman Slayer Given Life Sentence Columbia, Miss., July 1.—When Hattie Lee Abram, indicted by the Marion County Grand Jury charging her with the murder of Leon Collins, in the northern section of Columbia, was arraigned before the court for trial, she entered a plea of guilty and judge Langston immediately sentenced her to life imprisonment. The case of Josie Lee and Carter Brumfield, who were jointly indicted with her, were passed to the files by Judge Langston at the suggestion of District Attorney Toxey Hall. JAILED BY REQUEST (By The Associated Negro Press) Gulfport, Miss., July 1—Howard Hadley was placed in the county jail at his own request after he claimed he had been robbed of $108. He told the officers he had failed in an effort to get employment and said he preferred t o give himself up than to be taken on a vagrancy charge later on. He told the ocers he had been robbed after buying gin from a bootleger. 13-Year Old Boy Charged With Murder 13-Year Old Boy Charged With Murder (By The Associated Negro Press) New Orleans, La., July 1.—The demand that Edgar Gaston, 13 years old, be charged with murder has been made by the father of Philip Herbert, 16 years old, who died in Charity Hospital. Herbert, it is alleged, died as the result of a blow dealt him on the head by a baseball bat in the hands of Baston, June 14th, at Erato and the Illinois Central Railroad tracks. Gaston, according to the police, was refused permission to participate in a ball game, and is said to have showed his resentment by striking Herbert on the head with a bat. WHITES ROB INSURANCE MAN New Orleans, La., July 30.—(By the A. N. P.) Ned Kennedy, 29, collector for the Unity Industrial Insurance Company, told police three white men kidnapped him, tied him up, and threw him out of a car after taking $58 from him. Kennedy said he was on the way to pay a sick claim to a member of the Unity and was passing Amelia and Franklin streets when a white man standnig beside an automobile drew a pistol and invited him to get in the automobile. Inside he said he found two other white men who drove around with him three hours before taking his belt, necktie, and his handkerchief to tie his arms and legs. He said they then stopped before a vacant house and that he was unceremoniously dumped out into the yard in front of a vacant house.

Would that I could linger yet awhile and stroll among your wooded paths, but time rushes us onward. Tis cold for the merry month of May. The sky hangs frowningly o'er us. I pull the scanty folds of my furred winter coat about me and shiver for the mild summery weather of dear old L. A. MRS. IDELL BATEMAN "I knew it!" I exclaimed as I hurriedly tucked my curly locks under my bonnet, "Rain!" "Let's hurry!" "Nothing to worry about, just a little fog,'the suave voice of my friend came back through the mist. Fog, oh yes the celebrated San Francisco fog, I had nearly forgotten, but there i twas in all its squeamishness, thick, and heavy, quite unlike the light, airy mist of my experience. We enlured it with battering eyes and the chilly sensation that comes of water beating against one's face. On the ferry, we ploughed through the bay, reaching Oakland where our train, the Pacific Coast Limited awaited us. We had little time for else besides settling our many bags with the aid of the alert, courteous, positive porter. Tall, slim dark, there was something in the flash of his eye as he silenced the whine of the complaining, sallow faced dumped shouldered hollow breasted German woman, who having been in the U. S. just long enough to imbibe somewhat of the cracker's seorn of dark skinned folk, without his ability to express it in su_cient English, was nevertheless doing her best ni broken German-English to let everyone know she was not pleased to have the berth over such creatures as we. He silenced her not so much in the use of much superfluous English as in the way he threw her bags under her seat and with a very straight black finger, pointed to the seat saying, "This is the seat for the upper berth." Not another word was heard in complaint of the eseat from her. Even humble did she, after a few minutes sit there, pulling on ta large carry-all bag, knife loaf of bread and German sausages begin to uc cubtread, gulping it down in huge mouthfuls, feeding her offspring, a stout little German bundle of about four years. She tried to smile offering us of her store of foreign victuals. I guess my nose was about six feet nithe air. I hardly noticed her offer, only condescending with a soft, cool, aloof, "no thank you!" fro mbehind a story book as the train sped north and eastward on our journey to Chicago. The next rehearsal of the Los Angeles Chorus, which is to sing at the Hollywood Bowl, July 29th, will be Sunday afternoon, July 7th at 3 p.m. Rehearsal every Monay and Thursday nights at 8 o'clock at Pico and Paloma streets.

If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened Fresh from the San Bernardino High school, having graduated this past June, Arthur Hamilton, who for the past two years has written, "The Black Sport World" column for this paper, is now now in Los Angeles with his journalistic sleeves rolled back and ready to bat 'em going and coming. Young Hamilton has made a record in and about San Bernardino in many lines of effort. In his course of study, he specialized in public speaking and journalism, and took four years of solid English. In oratory he lead his school to victory in many instances. In the year 1927 he entered the Southern California Declamation contest and took second prize from among the nineteen picked schools of Southern California; and in 1928 again entered the all Southern contest and took first place from the nineteen A.

MISS KATHERINE BASS FINISHES AT SAWTELLE Among our most outstanding graduates this year in both the summer and winter classes in Miss Katherine Bass of Sawtelle who received her diploma from the Warren G. Harding High School Wednesday night June 26 By graduating from the Warren G. Harding High School Miss Bass is making history. She will not only have the honor of being the first colored to have finished there, but the last as the Board of Education has changed the name of the school and it is no more to be known as the Warren G. Harding. Besides being listed among the honor students Katherine has the distinction of being commended by two members of the faculty. "Katherine has worked very hard and we are proud of her", stated Miss E. Dunbar Vice Principal. A She was a member of the Girls Athletic Association for three semesters and during that time played games with Beverly, Venice and Washington high schools. Her outstanding scholastic efforts were as follows: member of the Spanish Club, History, Club, Girls League and also was listed as an Honorary citizen in the school. Miss Bass not only won a reputation for herself in the Sawtelle High school, but also in the township of Sawtelle where she has resided for the past few years. Miss Bass is the daughter of Mrs. Viola Kimbrough of this city and Mr. William Bass of Kansas City, Kansas, and is also the niece of Mrs. Dora Gamble of Sawtelle and Editor and Mrs. J. B. Bass of the California Eagle. As a concluding gesture for her high school life Miss Bass entered a debate on the affirmative side and was victorious. GRADUATION DAY, SUNDAY AT INDEPENDENT CHURCH!

The heavens declare Jehovah's glory; Shasta is creation's story. The beauty of the golden West, A snowy field heaped in rest. With its nose in firmament Shasta stands a monument, And it shows God's handwork, Volcanic peak built minus irk. Ancient days found its greater Sending up through its crater, A stream of lava fiery mad Twould have made Pompeii sad. Shasta's voice is hushed in silence, It can do Pompeii no violence, Italy is too far away Where Vernorius goes outr BEST SERVICE OBTAINABLE The Black Sport World By ART HAMILTON THE BLACK SPORT WORLD ABOUT THIS FELLOW LA BARBA Well the little college fighter lost another one to a top notch boy last Tuesday night, at the big house on Grand Ave. How About George Godfrey? Mastro beat him, and it was a clean out decision, although some of the writers wanted to call it a draw. REMEMBER AFTER THE CHOCOLATE BATTLE Of course you remember the big squak that went up after 'Kandy Kid' Chocolate was given a decision over La Barbz and of course the various excuses that were offered. NOT SUCH HOP COPY NOW. La Barba is not such hot copy now that he has been beaten by two of the best boys in the game at the weight. Mastro did not have a hard time hitting the former flyweight champ, and at times made him look foolish; making him miss, with that renowned left of his. SOMETHING LIKE THE EIGHT IN NEW YORK After reading the account of both fights they size up almost to the dot, Mastro fought almost the same fight that the little Cuban Champ did Chocolate stayed away from La Barba, by shooting out a left hand and crossing with that deadly right when even the desired opening was there. At times he made Fidel look sick, according to the estern papers, by not letting him corner him in the infighting. And to top it all the Chicago boy beat Fidel at his own game, by throwing out just as many lefts, and fighting as hard in the clinches as Blakes boy did. CHOCOLATE SHOULD RULE FAVORITE When Earl Mastro meets the Cuban late this summer in the Windy City Chocolate should by all rights be on the long end of the betting. The reason that I would put the Kid over Art Winches boy is this. Chocolate is just as fast as Mastro any day in the week and if it came to a show down the Kid could probably shade him on speed, if eastern reports mean any thing, Mastro has a wonderful left, but the black boy is no slouch with his left either. He showed that by matching lefits with La Barba for ten fast rounds. And then, when it comes to that old K.O. punch the Keed has it over Mastro like a tent, because when he lays that right on them it is curtains and no less. He let Fidel have it several times and he almost went down, but his ring general saved him. And while we are talking about that punch of Chocolate's we might as well tell you right here that he laid it on the featherweight king of Canada the other night and sent him to the arms of Morpheus, the god of sleep in the early stages of the first cante. All in all this fight between Mastro and Chiolate should be the fight and no less, NEW SPORT EDITOR Greatings folks. Well here I am, after writing two long years just as a club I am now taking over the reins to the Sports department at the Soring Eagle. I haven't much to say now; as all my saying will be said through my column the Black Sport World. But now after saying that I did not have any thing to say I would like to say this. My policy as sport editor shall be to give all the race fighters that which is coming to them. I shall endeavor to make the sport sheet of the Eagle a real sport sheet, by having all the current sport news written in the best sport style that I know. And of course all fighters and their managers are always welcome to drop by the office at 847 Central Avenue and I will try to make it welcome for them. I will be down to the two gyms to look you all over so he looking for me. So in summing up this little introduction, remember that the Eagle sport sheet after this will consist of the Column the Black Sport World and all current sport news. Signing off until next week.

Now that, Max Schmelling the German Dempsey has taken Uzunumu the battling Basque in easy fashion the would be heavyweight championship field is some what thinner. FEW GOOD ONES LEFT There are a few good ones left however. There is Gabby Jack Sharkey the sailorboy from Rean Town, Max Schmelling himself, George Godfrey the real contender and Bear Cat Wrightam up and coming heavy from the Pacific coast. THE BASQUE BEAT BAD Upside Down took a bad beating from Schelling the Black Uhlan, just as Damon Runyon the Sports writer that writes sports as sports should be written predicated. In fact the Spainard never had a chance. CAUSE OF BASQUIER POOR SHOWING Uzcudun had not had a fight since his set with George Godfrey in Los Angeles, some time last year, but according to the eastern writers he was in perfect shape. It has been said that any man that fights Godfrey is never the same man again. And beyond a doubt is has been proven in this case. The Basque took a lot of punishment and he stood up under it, but he was in no condition to retaliate. The German pounded him at will and at times was getting nothing in return. Just the after effect of that terrible body beating that he took at the hands of the black menace. NOW HOW ABOUT GEORGE Now comes-the question how about the current black menace. Just where does he come in, in this scramble for the heavyweight crown? It has been proven that he is the best heavy in the game today. He then jumped out here to the Pacific coast and took this same Basque that Schemling beat in ten rounds. GOING GREAT At the present time: the Black Shadow is going like a house a fire. Just the other night he put tough Chuck Wiggins out in seven cantons, and last week he put the skids on Jimmy Byrnes the Kentucky boy that had never felt the canves, in five rounds. Byrnes will be remembered for his battles that he put up with Neal Clisby the California Thunder Bolt. SCHEMLLING AND GODFERY When it comes down to a fine point, the German Dempsey and Godfrey are the only real contenders that are left. We have to give Sharkey an outside break because of his victory over Willie Stribling. But wait and see if the black boy and the German aren't big guns in the chase for the crown. Winner Baby Sal Soria, that hardhitting junior lightweight from San Barardino, knocked out his former sparring mate, Billy DeFoe at EKcentro last Friday night in five rounds. DeFoe trained Sal for his fight with Tod Morgan, trying to teach him how to use a left hand. For the first three rounds the old veteran poured lefts all over Soria and had him beat badly going into the fourth round. But in the fourth Sal got his heavy guns into action and had Billy out on his feet when the hel saved him. When the gong rang for the fifth round the Rabe rushed out to finish his man, and he poured rights and lefts so fast they were hard to follow. He dropped him for the count of nine with a crushing right and when he came up let him have a left hook to the body and DeFoe was through for the night. NATIONAL TRACT BAREFOOT TRACK MEET FOR BEACH ATHLETES. Track athletes of Los Angeles and the municipal beaches will take part in an annual type of meet next Saturday when the second barefoot track meet of the season is held during the morning and afternoon on the sands of Venice Beach. A surf swim will be held in connection with the track meet, all of which will be under the direction of the Playground and Recreation Department. Entrants in all events will be required to perform minus the aid of shoes of any kind, depending only upon such traction as they may gain from the soles of their feet. A 50-yard and 100-yard dash, running broad jump and satding broad jump will comprise the mornings' events. In the afternoon, there will be swims of 100 yards, 220 yards, 440 yards, and 880 yards. There will also be a combined 100-yard dash and surf swim which will require each entrant to start with a run on the beach, swim to buoy and come back to the starting point. As a special event for boys from 12 to 15 years of age, a 75-yard surf swim will be held. All events will be open to any amateur runner or swimmer. Tennis In Action TO CLOSE SUNDAY! Finals in the men's singles, women's singles, and men's doubles will all be played off next Sunday, as the concluding events of the annual Municipal Tennis Tournament being held by the Municipal Tennis Association and the Los Angeles Playground Department at Gr...th Courts. The winner of the men's singles titles may earn a trip back East to public courts tournament—a fact which will lend even greater interest to this match.

Samuel Brown, faithful and dependable organist of Independent Church of Christ, who was also the organist for the N. A. A. C. P. chorus, recently graduated from U. S. C., with the degree of Bachelor of Music. The remarkable feature about Samuel is that he completed a five-year course in three and one-half years, and received an average scholastic record of "A." As a result of his excellent scholarship and character record he was the first and only Negro to be elected to Pi Kappa Lambda, a national honorary scholarship fraternity. Out of 1100 graduates, Samuel Brown was one of forty-five selected from the college of music for this unusual honor, thus proving to U. S. C. students and faculty members that a Negro can compete effectively with other nationalities for high honors. ia ee a A HOME IN PASADENA "This ‘beautiful: Pasadena home now for sale, 6 rogms, madern fea. tires, Garage, Cellar, Lat 60-x 176.
