He don't mean maybe either but still for all that the patient Chas. will invariably give the guilty culprit another chance. "Say," he will call over the phone, "do you think you can be on time if I send you to such and such studio tomorrow? O. K., then be there at 9:00 sharp!" BILLIE BROWN is our slender, pretty talented little hidden talent exhibit this issue. Did you see "Hearts in Dixie?" Do you remember the girl who came down the dusty country road lagging a big, basket of clothes, when met by Step-in-fetch-it, who was willing to make love to her, but unwilling to help carry the bundle? Well, that was Billie. What a winsome little country violet she appeared in the famous Fox feature! Yet that is the only real chance she has had to prove her ability. Billie had stage experience back East as a singer and dancer. She possesses a strong, clear voice and winning personality. She stopped a Nite Nite show completely with a blue number and was showered with money at an Elks' Smoker last winter for just a clear, clean-cut song act. Billie really deserves a break. RIANO TINDANO & MATEO MORNO are the two Africans brought here by Mr. Goldwyn of the M. G. M. studios to complete work in "Trader Horn," which was on location in Africa over a year. Both are from the Nairb district of the Dark Continent an members of the Swahili tribe. They are quite intelligent though neither could speak a word of English when arriving here, in order to secure their services the studio had to put up $100,000 bond for each of them to the English government under whose protection their country is, making them British subjects.

Yet the average colored paper only costs $2.00 a year which many of them would spend for one bottle of "jack" and think nothing of it. What most of the local talent needs is to stand in the block long lines on the snow covered sidewalks of New York, in front of the booking offices, waiting, waiting, waiting. Eventually most of them would end in the broadline!

Although it is difficult characterization calling for physical as well as mental work. "Skeets" is warped, twisted, deformed, hunch-back with a smiling, handsome face who shuffles through the whole four acts as the devoted slave of the vamp, Lula Belle.

Eight different sequences placed at vantage points of the film, rates "Hit the Deck" as the dance novelty of the season. The first dance stars Polly Walker, the nimble Follies beauty, in the "coffee shop" scene. Miss Walker also sings "Looool" supported by a dancing and singing chorus of 16 sailors. Jack Oakie is at his best in the next number. "Sez You, Sez Me," in a street number with eight pretty girls. The elaborate "Shore Leave" number follows, utilizing 24 girls. 24 men and all the principals. Then there's "Hallelujah." a sequence dealing with a Negro spiritualist meeting. Eighteen Negro girls and eight men participate in "Snake Hips," a number with a choral background of 100 Negro voices. During the technicolor sequences aboard the battleship Wallace MacDonald and June Clyde, pretty little Radio Pictures ingenuine, combine to sing and dance "Nothing Could Be Sweeter," supported by chorus and the three Brox Sisters. A finish number features a galaxy of mermaids being dragged aboard by sailors—a unique dance in technicolor. "Hit the Deck" was directed by Luther Reed and photographed by Robert Kurrle—the team largely responsible for the success of "Rio Rita." The cast includes Polly Walker, Jack Oakie, Roger Gray, Marguerita Padula, Ethel Chelton, June Clyde, Walace MacDonald, Harry Sweet and George Ovey, black face comedian. COLORED COOKS MAKE OAKMONT GOLFERS GOLF (Continued from Page Nine) in daily complimenting the tasty, well cooked as well as fancy food. Each Christmas Bill is loade ddown with presents from members and guests and he has been there a number of holidays. The dining room is in charge of Mr. Romeo Loving, one of the best head waiters in the business, so that is why the Oakmont members say, "Who couldn't shoot par with eats like these?" Most motion pictures are problems for directors and scenarists—and, of course, for the cameraman. But in "The Mysterious Island." Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's all-color spectacle based on Jules Verne's bizarre story of the first submarine, the cameraman had more than his share of troubles. Every scene, before it was taken, had to be analyzed as to color, light and detail by a delicate instrument known as a photoimeter—an instrument as delicate as a microscope. Percy Hillburn, who commanded the battery of cameramen in the new picture, which comes Sunday to the Twoli Theatre, holds that the perfection of the color photography (and never before has color photography been used in an entire picture of the feature class) is due entirely to this painstaking process. "We had to choose the colors that would blend best for delicate effects," says Hillburn, "and every costume was built under the analyzing lens of the photometer. Then we took our divers and went underseas, and in many cases operated the camera in a sort of diving bell. I remember that the first time I went under water in a suit, with considerable air pressure, I fainted. I am rather stout, and can't stand much of that. They gave me gradual treatments under increasing pressure to acclimate me. "We used the Williamson under-sea tube, which lowers a camera to the depths, in the Bahamas, and on the California coast used a special process perfected by John Nicklaus, head of the studio laboratories. As to diving armor, Lionel Barrymore, who is spare of build, stood it best. Jane Daly had trouble with pressure, and Lloyd Hughes became excited under heavy pressure. I think Barrymore was the best subject of all under water." **GRANT AND HALL SUNDAY** As a special treat the clever team of Grant and Hall will entertain with latest songs and dances even better than those they did in "Lula Belle" and several musical comedies. Base and Berry will please with comedy and songs and J. Johnson with piano and accordian in a melange of melody fill out a wonderful vaudeville bill. "CALIFORNIA, HERE I COME" Thus a new invader from Seattle announces his challenge to the light heavyweights at present trying to eliminate each other in Southern Calif. Frank Purcell, noted fight manager is bringing Garfield Johnson known as the "Black Streak" to Los Angeles in a few days and claim that if the promoters will make local managers bring some of their 'precious pampered proteges' out of their he-ribboned band-boxes his "Black Streak" will light up the situation around here show the fans some real scrapping. PETER Reports have been leaking in from the east about what a great boxer and crowd pleaser the "Streak" is but the mornings mail brings some clippings that far surpasses these rumors. Purcell wired the Eagle not to publish Johnson's knockout record as local fighters and managers would be so scared that he would get no fights. But for the sake of the fans we have to tell this much. During a recent invasion of the east the records show that the "Black Streak" had 25 fights and won 20. Of these 6 were quick knockouts, the rest clear wins. In the other five battles he lost one decision to the famous Toughie Griffiths in 10 rounds, two close decisions to Maxie Rosenbloom and a draw, and lost an unpopular decision to Osk Till-tollowed by a draw. He K.

Colored fans are anxious to make a hero of "The Black Streak" since he seems to have the goods and are waiting for his entrance. So says Frank Purcell "California here we come!"

Four teams were entered by this branch in the biggest event in the state. About forty youths made the trip to the port town and were the guests of the Army and Navy "Y" for two days. A wonderful time was had by all the kids and they did not have one kick coming when the tournament was over. And most of all they were true sportsmen all the way through. ARRIVED FRIDAY NIGHT We arrived about 6 o'clock Friday evening and were shown to our rooms under the various leaders. Harold Wilson and his fast stepping 125 pound team, Jeff Brown and his 110 pound boys. Les Valley and his 95 pound boys and Yours truly, and the 135 pounders made up the squad. The third floor of the $700,000 "Y was given over to us and as boys will be boys made the best of it that night. Leaders were up all during the night putting sprouts to bed. BIG BANQUET FRIDAY NIGHT After being shown to our rooms and given our credentials, we were called for the big banquet prepared for the basketball players of the "Ys" of the Southland. Eats and more of the same and the usual banquet program was followed out, worth while speakers from the Central branch in Los Angeles being the main attraction of the serious side of the question. Burns of the Central branch gave his version of the sport and the sportsman. Dye and Wieman of the Hollywood Branch furnished the fun and did they go. That Dye fellow can go and no less. The first games were played off Friday night after the banquet and there lies the tale. All of our teams went down to defeat to better teams. The 135 pound team played a wonderful first half game to head on the movie city boys at the half by a 9 to 4 score. The boys were going like a million and looked to be sure winners at half time, but in the second half it was a different tale altogether. After playing a game that could not be improved upon they cracked in the second half to go down to defeat to a team that had beaten them twice before. And when the score started coming in from the other teams it was the same way. Only one team reached the finals and that was Jeff Brown's fighting 110 team. The boys played for the championship of their division Saturday night and were going like a million only to loose out in the final minute of play 15 to 14 to Whittier a team they had previously defeated. It was nip and (Continued On Page Eleven) FRIDAY, MAY 2, 1930 $500.00 CASH IS THE PRIZE Should Pals Fight? "No" Says Mushy Should Pals Fight? "No" Says Mushy Although Wad Wadhams Olympic Matchmaker tried his hardest to match that former east-side newsboy ring favorite. Mushy Callahan with his best pal Benny Miller, Mushy and Benny both said "nothing doing." Any one who ever read or heard recited that famous pathetic poem "The Kid's last Fight" can easily sense why. "They could fight and still be good friends. Boxing is just a business, anyway." asserts Wadhams, which is true but if one should permanently injure the other he would never forgive himself, especially when there are so many strangers to fight. Frequently friends put up desperate fights but there is also the ever present possibility of one weakening when he sees his pal groggy, staggering and ready for the knockout punch the crowd is clamoring for. Some months ago the pilot of this Sport's sheet ripped Neal Clisbv up the back for not knocking the block off that big bup. Seal Harris, at the Olympic. He could have sent him to the junk yard in a half round but hated to because they were good friends and he had taught the big ox what little he knew. It made a bad fight and hurt Neil. 50 IST Per Cent TO A FRESH START IN EVERYBO WINS CAMPAIGN THEY ARE OFF TO A FRESH START IN EVERYBODY WINS CAMPAIGN Here's How They Stand Capital Prize 500 Cash .....304,000 due .....17,000 Duarte, Cilif. .....199,000 .....150,000 ter, Pasadena .....533,000 FRIDAY, MAY 2, 1930 Two brothers down at San Antonio used to fight a wild-cat draw every time they were matched; black eyes, cut lips and all while the crowd went nutty.

Junior Sports Activities (Continued From Page Ten) tuck all the way and the boys really fought. A foul decided the outcome of the game. The score was fourteen to thirteen in favor of 28th street, in the last two minutes of play a 28th street guard stopped a play under the basket that looked perfectly fair, but the referee called a foul with the penalty of two shots tacked on it and the Whittier man sank both of them and the game was over, with the score reading 15 for Whittier and 14 for 28th Street. A championship, within their gasps and to have it snatched away like that was tough going for the youngsters and they took it hard. But such is life, you must be ten or twenty points to the good, or you can't win. All in all we had a wonderful time and enjoyed every minute of our stay, and will be right back next year after a championship in some class and one of these years we are going to sneak up on them before they know what it is all about.

USE GREYHOUND TO SPEED UP TRACK STARS Tuskegee Institute. Ala., April 29—(By A.N.P.)—Coach Owens, who is training the Tuskegee track team, has found another use for his gift greyhound dog. Tan, aside from chasing jack rabbits, Tan has become the pace setter for the track stars, especially the dash man, and he seems to enjoy running on the cinder path. (Each afternoon as the hour draws near for track practice (4:00 o'clock) Tan becomes restless and whines for his two hours of practice in the Bowl. The Coach usually ties Uno, Tan's mates at the finish of the century. Tan becomes anxious to join his mate and at the sound of the gun dashes away with the hundred yard men in pursuit. Tan clocks the 100 in seven flat. While Coach Owens' aspirants have not been able to do as well, they have been able to refuse their running time each day with Tan as a pace setter. Hudson & Essex Dealers Lay Cornerstons For New Dallas "Y" DALLAS, TEXAS, April 29—The corner stone of the new $200,000 Y. M. C. A. being built for Dallas, colored youth was laid here last Sunday with Chaning H. Tobias, national secretary, as the principal speaker and Grand Cancellor Kincheon of the Pythians officiating in laying the stone, in a ceremony which was witnessed by more than five thousand colored and white people. The building which is the first unit of a series of structures to be built by the city wide Y. . C. A. Association comes as the result of a city wide campaign for one million dollars for new buildings. President Brown of the city Wide Board in his address said that when the project of a colored building to be included in the city-wide million dollar campaign was first broached to him he felt some misgivings, feeling that it might be somewhat of a deterrent. It had proven, however, he re- In order to qualify for full credits, cnotestants will make weekly reports either by mail or in person.

Many white people who had not given to the campaign before expressed their interest and subscribed he said. when it became known that a building for colored was to be built. The campaign was held two years ago. $50,000 was subscribed by colored citizens. Already they have paid in $35,000 of their pledges in cash. Julius Rosenwald gave $25,000 and the white citizens of Dallas gave $125,000. The secretary of the new building is Leon W. Stewart, formerly of the staff of the St. Louis Y and later executive secretary at St. Joe. Mo. Negro Dramatic Club Appears before White University DURHAM. N. C—April 29—The Durham Community Players' Negro Dramatic Group presented two one-act plays at Duke University Tuesday night. The organization which has Page----Eleven COMPANY & alers HUmbolt 8365 been trained by Miss T. E. Holtzclaw of Hillside High School was assisted by students of Shaw University in a musical interlude and were present as the guests of the university's regular entertainment programs for the university community. The rendition which disclosed a wealth of talent both dramatic and musical met with enthusiastic response from the audience which numbered about a thousand white residents. The plays given were Paul Green's "The Man Who Died at Twelve O'clock" and "Sir James Barrie's "The Twelve Pound Look." H. L. Wilson; N. L. Long, Miss T. E. Holtzclaw and H. M. Michaux took the roles in the first play while J. F. Jones. A.C. Lanier and N. L. Long played the second. Mrs. C. R. Edwards, formerly head of the school of music at Kittrell College sang two numbers accompanied by Mrs. A. M. Logan. John Allen Foushee sang several baritone solos, "Little Gal," and, "Water Boy," being among them. Paul Green wrote most of his famous plays at the University of North Carolina. The Durham Community Players have been invited to present a program at the university next month. RAILROAD CLATTER COAST DOINGS By Charles L. Upton Puge—Twelve M. UPTON SAYS When we read such lines as Clarence Brooks, the personality star, we are compelled to write as follows: Old talent recovered it of course would be foolish to say new talent discovered. Clarence Brooks, Web King, and Sidney Dones were our matinee idols ages ago, we welcome Mr. Brooks back in the public limelight. Home talent is always the most preferable to the movie fans and amid such surroundings as the Jockey Nite club, and Dunbar Hotel, Mr. Brooks should be a wow. 165 CRUSADERS ON GOOD WILL CRUSAD.VISIT CITY— Interested primarily in fostering harmonious relationship between the states, 165 delegates from Oregon Washington, British Columbia, and California composing the Pacific Coast Crusade, arrived last week in Southern California on a special train in which smiling Pullman Porters did their best to give service that has made the Pullman Company famons for many years. This good will trip struck the same thought from the writer's mind as countless other good will and good relationship trips have done on many other occasions. I made a memorandum to hte effect that the next time a goodwill and relationship trip was brought to my attention I was going to frankly express my opinion of them to the public that take enough of their valuable time to read the tew lines which the writer endeavors to publish in this most worthy paper weekly. Good will trips are fine, they serve to promote friendship and allow the manufacture to come in direct contact with his out of town customers, but the word goodwill 'means a whole lot to the Negro Race. are any of these countless goodwill-trips that enter our fair city doing us any material good; the answer is very plain NO. and why? we ask the first place we are not even considered in the program of the trip before it leaves its destination, there are several kinds of goodwill. goodwill in business, goodwill in fellowship, and good will in relationship. The last is what we are the most vitally interested in. Do any of these goodwill delegates come in direct contact with the Negro when they stop over in a city. My friends the nearest approach that they come to the Negro is the Pullman Porter, when they leave him on the car with their baggage, that is the last they see of the Negro until they return, if they are taken on a sight seeing tour through the city, their guide hardly ever brings them through the most prosperous looking part of the Negro residential district, the worst side is always shown. Do the goodwill trips do us any good I say no. If some of the money that is spent to promote these many good will trips that visits this city from time to time was used to promote a closer relationship between the White and Black race. It it was used to battle down the concrete barrier of prejudice and allow the Negro the place on this big globe that he rightfully deserves. If it was used to educate those of the White race that are ignorant of the fact that the Negro is and has been proven a loyal American citizen, not only in time of peace, but in time of war as well, if it was used to bring more forcefully before the eyes of those of the White race that the universal education of the Negro, and the privilege of executing his knowledge according to his education in any given field he may desire to enter, then the writer would be glad to take his hat off and smile with the satisfaction that a good will trip meant just what it said. INDISPOSED The writer of this column feels that he owes his readers an explanation in regards to the limited amount of railroad news this week, but owing to the fact that my wife as well as my self have been very sick for the past week it has been next to impossible for me to get around and see the different railroad men in regards to there activities however I promise the public that if the condition at my home shows any improvement within the next week I will hand it to you right up to the minute. PHONES LONDON FROM TRAIN Last week on the Canadian Pacific Limited train. A gentleman established direct connection by phone with his business representatives in London while the train was in motion and speeding to it's destination. Quite a conversation was carried on and the interesting part of it all was that every word could be heard as plainly as a man phoning one accross the city. That's making progress. Last year on board the Majestic Radio Special enroute to Chicago from Los Angeles, a program arranged in If You Fail To Read----THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE----You May Never Know It Happened 847 Central Avenue Los Angeles for the benefit of those on board could be plainly heard and enjoyed after we had left Los Angeles hunoreds of miles behind. Success for things, that have seemed impossible for those who have not kept track of the progress of science is being accomplished more and more every day; Not long ago an inventor was able to plainly descern the image of the one whom he was conversing with at the other end of the phone, while this experiment was reported as in its infancy and not yet perfected to the point where it would be considered practicable in the home still it gives a keen insight as to what the future has in store for us; We are living in a fast age, and it behooves all of us to keep our eyes open and make some sort of effort toward keeping peace with the trend of the times. ONLY DEAD MEN LAK STILL. It should not take the average person of any degree of intelligence to plainly see the benefit derived in economy, when the fruits of economy are being demonstrated and shown us everyday that we live. The great economy wave first struck this country directly after the world's war and it has been growing and growing to such an extent that now it is plains and forcibly felt and noticed by all who will take heed. A few years back when the Pullman Company took up their program of economy, wise men claimed that the Company was cutting down expenses in order that they might meet the demands for higher wages of the porters nothing was more wrong than that statement and rumor; The Pullman Company has always been in a condition to meet whatever demands that have been made upon them, when they cut down on hat bags, matches, cuspidools, wisk brooms, and converted cake soap into liquid soap, don't think for a minute that it was on account of preparing to meet additional expense; it was not. They were following the trend of economy. The time is fast approaching when the old style ice box will be considered a relic, frigidares will be so cheap that the old time ice man will be an unheard of fixture, that one item alone will put thousands of men out of work; it means that the coming generation must be an educated one to exist, a common laborers job in a few more years at the present rate of economy will be unheard of. To day inventions are being planned that if ever perfected will cut the man power of this nation in half. What will the other half do? What will they do if they have no education, elevators are already manufactured that need no operators. Radios and caned music have put the musicians on the bum, the talkles soon weeded out the dum but beautiful moving picture stars. A film star now days has got to know something, producers are curtailing expenses on every side, they are saving hundreds of thousands of dollars in music alone. A great economist made his report of a survey some time ago, and related the regretable facts that the Negro spent two thirds of his net earnings for amusements. How long is this thing going to last, will we never come to our senses, must we play all the time, can we not see that the many various avenues from whence we used to make big money are gradually passing from us. Can't we realize that modern machinery is fast pushing us off of the face of the earth. Why is it such a hard task for us to patronize one another when we do have the courage to go in business, why must an elegant establishment like the Pyramid Co-operative grocery Co. beg and plead a race man or woman for his or her patronage. If the Pramid Company put white girls behind their counters, I will venture to say that there would be a mighty big howl from a lot of us, then why don't you give this worthy company your business. The men behind the counter are black the owners are black, what more incentive do you wish, I have not got a time invested in this firm. I have never even met personally any if it's executives, but I am asking and hoping that all race loving railroad men residing in this city arrange to give this firm an order some time this week. If you do please mention Railroad Clatter, and I certainly will be gratefully. If we could only learn to patronize the colored business man as we do in the colored undertaker you would soon see a vast difference in the color of the business establishments located on Central Ave.; Which is rightfully the Negroes trade center, lets get together and start the ball to rolling. MAJESTIC RADIO SPECIAL ON THE 23rd OF MAY—SHRINERS DUE TO LEAVE ON 31st. Well boy's two big specials are due to leave next month the first one which is the Majestic Radio Special will pull anchor from these parts on the 23rd of May for Chicago this is a good special and the extra board should get a good break if they are lucky enough to get assigned as a rule ECONOMICS it runs top and bottom all work and no play, but if you go you will not be sorry. However it might be jonah as it was the last special that the writer and Geo. Beathea went on cross your heart spit on your fingers and go a head. The Shriners are leaving for Toronto. It is a dead town all the movie houses are shut down on Sunday, but the Shriners are more then likely to change that rulling when they arrive as they always manage to do every place that they go, so hop to it all you young stock that enjoy spending sleepless nights and plenty of work, the Shriners will see to it that you do not drop asleep on the way going as well as on the way coming back. RASIN SPECIAL TO FRESNO The hungry extra board gang got a shot at the Fresno rasin special last week. This would have been a good special for Jersey City Hall to have gone on. I am told that Hall likes his rasins and is thinking about rasing them in his back yard. H. E. WASHINGTON LONGS FOR HIS RUN ON SUNSKT. H. E. Washington, better known as (big Bertha) was reported to be casting longing eyes toward, his run on the Sunset last week. Wash. says if he ever gets back on the train again, he will, stick with it till it hits New Orleans. DAN HOOD AND CHICKENS Sometime ago the writer procured a setting of eggs for a domestic her who wanted to set down a while from a popular pullman porter by the name of Dan Hood. Now I do not like to talk about my friends in public, but all of these chickens entered the world pure de black. I am not saying anything about my friend Dan, but I like to know, how come? LARK CAR UP FOR RID Car 75 on the Lark went up for bid last week, and some fairly five speculating was expected to take place. Line 28 to San Diego better known as sad Sam also went up for bid, as did the Fresno car which operates on the Owl, hop to it gang. Mail your news to Chas. L. Upton 2190 West 30th Street. J. CARTER NO. 1 RETURNS TO WORK J. Carter No. 1 returned to work last week on his regular line after being idle since last September. Mr. Carter had a very serious operation performed at the Government hospital in San Diego and during his convalence came very near eating the government out of house and-home. He is now back in the harness and raring to go. MR. AND MRS. HARRY WALTON OF SAN DIEGO SPEND HONEYMOON IN LOS ANGELES Mr. and Mrs. Harry Walton of San Diego, motored to this city last week and have been enjoying their honey-moon like two peas in a pod in the big city. Mr. Walton is night red cap at San Diego for the Santa Fe and has been looking forward to this event for some time. The happy couple had dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Jack Wortham and while on the west side paid the writer a visit, they were guest at the home of Mr. and Mrs. R. Hicks later on in the day. Mrs. Walton expressed her delight with the beauties of Los Angeles and promised to return in the not far distant future. J. BELL, SR. TAKES PLEASURE TRIP TO NEW QREANS. J. Bell, Sr. one of the old timers who has been operating on the Fresno line for some time was recently bumped by T. W. Kimbro who conducts a chicken ranch down in Watts; Kimbro thought that he could purchase chickens in Fresno at a cheaper rate than he gets them elsewhere, this of course put J. Bell on the extra board, and the first time he reported, Mr. Ross was nice enough to give him a dead head car to New Orleans his old home town, Mr Bell has been planning a visit to New Orleans for quite a while and the trip came in at a very handy time. GLASCOW LOSSES OUT ON HEARST PARTY Big fat Glasscow was seen 'singing the blues last week because the car that he was assigned to on the William Randolph Hearst party was pulled at the last minute. This of course liked to broke Glasscow's heart, the Hearst party is supposed to be a prize catch with the boys on the extra board. FORMER PULLMAN PORTER GOES IN RESTAURANT BUSINESS Arthur Scott former pullman porter under Mr. C. Lincoln's administration has opened up a first class restaurant directly accross from the Lincoln theatre aparently all the pullman porters are going in business around this WE COVER CALIFORNIA LIKE THE OCEAN BREEZE vicinity, I am told that Carter No. 2 has a booblack stand in this neighborhood. Scott claims he can fix you up like you like to be fixed when you get hungry. Give him a break. POLITICAL POT PIE When you hear of the average would be political going around pro- claiming he had SOUTHERN PACIFIC NEWS MR. AND MRS. EARL THOMAS RETURN FROM VACATION Mr. and Mrs. Earl Thomas 778 E. 53rd St. have just returned from a much needed vacation up north. Mr. Thomas who does his stuff preparing wholesome dishes on one of Mr. S. P's dining cars reports that he and Mr. s. had a wonderful time while away. They took in San Francisco, Portland, and Seattle. Earl claims that when the madame begins to get restless the best way to cure her is to take her. on a vacation, since she has returned from the trip everything, is breaking like he wants it to in his household. PICTURES TAKEN OF DINING CAR CQOKS AND WAITERS CLUB Guest and members of the Dining Car Waiters and Cooks Club located on 12th Street were surprised last week when staff photographers swarmed the place with giant arco lights which flooded the beautiful interior of the spacious rooms and made pictures of the entire place. It was said that these pictures would at some time appear in the Southern Pacific bulletin, a monthly periodical published by the Southern Pacific. SOUTHERN PACIFIC'S EARNINGS HIGH FOR YEAR The combined net income of the Southern Pacific Company and its transportation system companies for the year ended December 31, 1929, amounted to $47,43,930, after charges and taxes. This compares with $39,208,633 earned in the preceding year. The 1929 net is equivalent to 12.74 a share on the 3,724,038 shares outstanding, as compared with $10.48 a share in 1928. Including net income of $925,853 of solely controlled affiliated companies, not included in above total net income for the year amounted to $48,360,783, or $12.99 a share, as compared with $39,876,567, or $10.71 a share in 1928. The report shows a substantial increase in freight revenues, which were up $9,295,757. Mail and express revenues also showed a satisfactory gain. While passengers revenue were slightly lower than the previous year. Operating revenues were the highest in the history of the Company, the reports declares. The Company earned 4.02 per cent in its investment during the year, making an average of 3.96 per cent since 1920. As of December 31, the company had 55,788 stockholders, according to the report. PROTEST AGAINST JUDGE PARKER A rather lengthy letter of protest to the confirmation of Juige Parker, foe of Union Labor was drafted and mailed to Washington by the See'y of Local 583 of the Dining Car Waiters and Cooks Union. GIVE WALTER WHITE THE SPINGARN MEDAJ Because of the magnificent and remarkable work, Walter White, Acting Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., has done in unearthing the facts about the hostile attitude of Judge John J. Parker of North Carofina, who seeks Associate Justiceship on the United States Supreme Court Bench, toward Negroes. I want to register my vote and express my opinion to the effect that Walter White be given the Spingarn medal for the most outstanding and noticeable piece of work done by a Negro in 1930. Whether Judge Parker is confirmed or not, signal victory has been achieved for the race by the awakened public sentiment relative to the rights of the Negro, occasioned by the fight on the confirmation of Judge Parker. It will serve to warn other white men seeking public office that they keep their garments cleanas to expressions of attitude upon the rights and privileges of colored Americans. A. PHILIP RANDOLPH. President and General Organizer, ADULT EDUCATION AT LAFAYETTE There are only two months left of the school year but much may be accomplished in that time. The following classes for adults are offered at Laiyette Junior High School. 1515 E. 14th Sreet: Room 16: Reading, writing, spelling, U. S. history, and arithmetic for beginning and intermediate students. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. 8:30 to 10:30 A. M.—Advanced English including grammar, word study, public speaking, and civic sociology from 1:00 to 3:00 P.

Instruction in all these classes is absolutely free but each student pays for material used in the sewing and Art classes before thethings are taken home. The future of Adult Education in this section of the city depends upon the attendance at these classes between POLITICAL POT PIE When you hear of the average would be political going around proclaiming he has been chosen to manage somebody's campaign. You can just tab him as a pure d quack. In the first place if he was in fact the chose one there would be no need to announce it from the house top. Secondly, put it down, no candidate with the least bit of common sense is going to select any man who cannot accomplish anything for himself, to the post where he expects that same person to accomplish things for him. That Presiding Elder who got so "het up" when he heard the editor had visited Monrovia, could just as well left unsaid what he said. It might cause comparison of records—and then who would be able to stand. This preacher should also know we cover California like the "Ocean Breeze" and 20 years of toil and effort, has been such that no community has ever been set back by our editor's visits. As a matter of fact calls for the editor to appear and speak throughout California come into this office at the rate of one for each day in the year. We are constrained to the belief that no one knows better of the service rendered by the Editor than this same presiding elder. * * * Rolph boosters are very much in evidence and it looks like whoever wins the Republican nomination will have to defeat Mayor Rolph. His campaign managers will no doubt in due time be on the job and the battle line will be pitched and things begin to hum. A. J. Fitzpatrick is the latest one mentioned as a candidate for assemblyman from the 65th Assembly district. This brings the total of aspirants who are receptive candidates up to five as follows: James M. Alexander, Mrs. A. E. Walker; E. T. Hubbard, A. J. Fitzpatrick and the incumbent Hon. F. M. Roberts. * * * Looks like all hands are pulling together for the passage of the $38,800-000 bond issue. This being so they bid fair to go over with a bang. We attendd a rousing meeting of the Republican Study Club, named after the managing editor of this publication on last Tuesday evening at the residence of Mrs. L. Bradley 1657 E. 115 St. Mrs. Cecile Thomas is the president of this particular unit and Mrs. S. McCallister, Sec'y It was one of the most enthusiastic meetings of women that one could wish to see. The Water Bonds were the evening's topic and after due consideration the bond issue received the unanamous endorsement of the Club. * * * * The women are in the spot light along political lines because they are the only ones who are doing things. They are demonstrating their inate ability. Give us more women who live up to the motto of the Federated Negro Women's Clubs, "Deeds Not Words". Lifting as we climb. The only interest we have in the premises of the activities which have presented in the organization of the Women's Republican Study Club is that of genuine appreciation for THE NOBLE work being accomplished and, to congratulate them for the saint. This goes for all who have brought these worth while things to pass. After all, any who would, by pet or word attempt to stir up strife and envy amid such accomplishments as our women have gained is unworthy of being called a man. now and the end of June. If the attendance does not warrant the expenditure necessary to maintain the classes they will be discontinued or the time allowance reduced next year. English and study classes are open to both men and women and all are cordially urged to avail themselves of this opportunity for the advancement of themselves and the community in which they live. Take a "B" car and get off at Naomi and Tweljith St. and you will see a sign on the first outside door of the building pointing the way to Room 16. Scottish Rite Masons to Hold Annual Meeting PHILADELPHIA, PA. April 29 The foky-ninth annual session of the United Supreme Council.

Only a few years ago we were told that the local newspaper was passing—that it could not compete with the dailies and weeklies of the big cities—and that it must yield to the inviditable. But the prophets were wrong. It is true that the local daily or weekly cannot supply in detail all of the news of the world. It cannot compete with its city contemporary in illustrations and features. And vet the local paper is still with us, and it is growing in strength and usefulness as the years go by. Some of the reasons for its existence are summed up in this paragraph from an exchange: The local paper should be found in every home. No children should grow up ignorant who can be taught to appreciate the home paper. It is said to be the stepping stone of intelligence in all those matters not to be found in books. Give your children a foreign paper which contains not a word about any person, place a thing, which they saw or perhaps ever heard of, and how could you expect them to be interested. But let them have the home paper, and read of people whom they meet and of places of which they are familiar and soon interest is awakeed which increases with every arrival of the local paper. Thus a habit of reading is formed and those children will read the papers all their lives and become intelligent men and women, a credit to their ancestors, strong in the knowledge of the world as it it today. HESITANT DRIVER A MENACE "Well, make up your mind," growled one driver at the driver ahead, who had signalled that he was going to turn to the left, and hesitated, and then had gone straight on. "I see that sort of thing every day," said the driver who had held up momentarily to his friend to whom he had given a "lift" that morning; "The hesitant driver is a great menace to safety and so is the reckless driver. One cannot gauge him, one never knows what he is going to do." True of driving, true of life in general. The fellow who cannot make up his mind throws all our plans awry. He will give us a decision by such and such a day. We build upon that expectation and when the day arrives he is still undecided. When he finally does decide the chances are that the scales of his judgment have been inclined one way or the other through the consideration of a minor point and not because of a clear analysis of the situation. The only way to deal with the hesitant driver is to watch him or, better still, to pull around and get in front of him. The only way to deal with the hesitant type in general is to analyze your man and, if he falls into this class, make due allowances. To depend on him in matters of importance is to build on shifting snads. LAM HAPPINESS I am that for which you are looking. I am the goal of religion. I am the objective of philosophy and silence. I am the dream of the wretched. I am the quest of the world, the great hunger of humanity. My dominion over men is world-wide. As children they romp toward me. As old men and women they tottter after me. I am insatiable thirst. Because of me mankind carries on business and commerce. Because of me the scientist labors long in his laboratory. Because of me untold millions of dollars are spent for the purpose of education. For men know that knowledge, health and business are paths to my domain. My name is written into the most exalted declaration of independence on earth. The right to the pursuit of me has been written in the hearts of men and sealed with their blood. Civilization is my reward, and man's home is my chief dwelling place. For all that I am a bright dream and a beautiful purpose, the children of men still stumble and fall and bruise themselves in my quest. They still confuse me with pleasure and with riches and with power. Yet I am as I always have been. I am the same yesterday, today and forever. The children know me and posses me, and the childlike at heart never lost their hold on me. GET IT STRAIGHT This publication exists by the pure and voluntary support of the people whose cause we espouse 365 days in the year. It is absolutely independent, unsubsidized and has not got its hand out asking any man, woman, set of men women or anybody else to give to us of their store. All it has ever asked is "elbow room" in which to solve our own destiny. We must need to battle all the way to maintain this standard and the records will show just how well we have performed. Our major battles at this moment is the contest for the uplifting of our economic condition, which to our mind is the major problem confronting our people. To solve this situation we must co-operate with each other to the fullest extent and if we do this we will find out that we have the solution in our own hands. For surely we have but to look well to places of business which we have created ourselves or from those who are in harmony with our progress in business. If we would do this we will rapidly make positions and situations which automatically solves the question of economic independence. We are on our way and have been for many moons and we are not weary of singing the rallying cry—"ON WITH THE BATTLE until victory is achieved." LOOK OUT FOR THE ABOLITION OF LYNCHING Associated press reports for this week are to the effect that a white man was lynched in Mississippi. We are firmly therefore of the opinion that the days of judge Lynch are numbered. We are sure that even in this benighted land of ignorance that the white folks who have for so long feasted and held carnivals over the ashes of human beings, will sense the disgrace they have brought upon themselves and shrink away in sack cloth and ashes to make their repentance sure. DEEDS NOT WORDS COUNT— If a man is good at his trade and profession, there is no proof of the same by his own proclamation to that effect. If he really rings true all hands will realize the same by his own demonstration in deeds but never in words. One thing they cannot blame our lawlessness on is a scarcity of laws. Another thing that seldom turns out as you expected is the woman driver. The census is about the last place to recognize the husband as head of the family. Have the men who make nickle cigars ever thought of serving a slab of corned beef with them? After the takers of prohibition polls have done the counting the losers will do the discounting. Before the wedding a girl won't believe he is unworthy of her. After the wedding she will tell him he is. You needn't make a better mouse-trap to have the world make a path to your door. Just get your name on a sucker list. That lawyer who said the eighteenth amendment cannot be a part of the constitution must be the same one who told the man behind the bars: "Why, my dear man, they can't put you in jail for that." One of the most harrowing: heartrending; tradegies in the annals of the nation's history was enacted when 317 lives were snuffed out in the holocaust of the Columbus, Ohio penitentiary. If men ever suffered the torture of hell, according to the testimony of some of the survivors, those roasted, smoke choked convicts did. To witness the creeping flames draw nearer and nearer; to have the lungs filled with the sulbhurous smoke was enough to appeal the stoutest heart. The United States Attorney General has warned against the further prosecution of petty cases. The prisons are filled to over flowing. Here is an almost obsolete prison built for a capacity of 1500 prisoners, and crowded with over 4000. Most of these men were incarcerated for infraction of the Volstead law. Some one in authority is to blame for the great loss of life. Conceding that some of those men were desperate characters and that their escape would have proved a detriment to society at large; it would have been better far to have risked their escape, than to have had the mroast like pigs. There will, with-out doubt, be a searching investigation made and a thorough probe into the affair that will place responsibility. There should be no whitewash, no difference where that responsibility for the death of those men should fall. Much to the chagrin of some senators who will seek re-election President Hoover has decided not to present the "World Court" for the consideration of the senate at this session. That decision leaves the issue open for discussion during the campaign. It may be the desire of the President to make a test of public opinion. In his speech before the Daughter Of The American Revolution he stated it was the consensus of opinion among thoughtful Americans that the United States should participate in, or become a member of that tribunal. The outspoken manner of the Illinios electorate in the McComick—Deneen primary contest did not convince him that the majority of the nation was irrevocably opposed to participation in the League Of Nations tribunal at any cost or under any circumstances. One of the most excoriating articles ever made in the criticism of a president appeared in the Hearst publication a few issues past. It not only questioned his Americanism but alike his party fealty. It is the opinion of most of the party leaders that President erred in delaying the presentation of the court pact until after the November election. Many of the aspirants for re-election will either have to recant, "eat crow" or be registered among the also rans. The "Wets and Drvs" are having their inning just now. All other politics seem to be put in the background. It is wonderful how the majority of women have changed in the view toward prohibition. Many of the most eminent women of the nation who were former ardent deciples of Volstead have seen the futility of trying to enforce an uninforcible law and have testified for such modification as will take away the felonious sting and check the fanaticism that is filling the prisons to overflowing by the prosecution of petty cases. The "Noble Experiment" has been tried for a decade and the more drastic the law the more flagrant the violation. A Fresno young women plead guilty to furnishing high school girls and boys liquor for an orgy that shook the basis of society in the community. That is but one of the many happenings where boys and girls violate, not only the law but the social ethics as well. Prohibition as it stands to day is undermining the moral basis of the nation. It is the breeding spot of hypocrisy and deceit. It has bred crime and created criminals. The testimony of Sir Henry Dravton who, on request appeared before the house judiciary committee, said that Canada had tried prohibition and found that it created lawless traffic and could not be enforced. So it was dropped and the present system of government control inaugurated. And while it is not perfect it is greatly superior to the old order, and is being improved upon. The decreases in drunks is noticeable. Sir Henry is chairman of the board of liquor control in Canada. It is not expected that the paid professional reformers will allow modification without a struggle. Senator J. S. Frelinghuysen: Republican: N. J. voted for the Volstead law but" after ten years of experience and study have modified my views. While the law has destroyed the open saloon it has developed new and grave evils with which the public is familiar." he said: Senator Frelinghuysen will be opposed in the primary for re-election by former Ambassador-Dwight Mrowr. Thoughtful men and women throughout the nation are dubious about further experimentation with the "Noble Experiment." No account should be taken of the expenditure for enforcement. If there was but a gleam of hope; if there was a streak of silver in the leaden sky; we would join with millions of others and say spend-to-the limit. But there is no hope. Conditions grow worse as the years go by. Instead of a decrease in crime; there is a big increase. The jails were to be emptied and converted into schools. Instead the prisons are so full that even the highest lawyer in the Government, begs for a let up in prosecutions. When the Volstead act was passed, through fanaticism, the nation was on a fair, way to abstinence through the education of temperance. The late President Wilson visioned the futility of the act and opposed it. The late W. J. Bryan, at loggerheads with the President. Wilson, espoused it. He espoused also, punishment for the teaching of the science of evolution. A poll of the senators on the confirmation of Judge Parker, N. C. President Hoovers nominee for justice of the Supreme court of the United States, bodes no good for the Judge. The sub committee by a vote of ten to six, reported that the nomination be rejected. On the floor it is said that a sufficient number of votes have been pledged to make non-confirmation a surety. You will know the result before this comes to you. The show down will come Monday, April 28th. Party leaders have pleaded with the President to withdraw Judge Parkers' name, but he seems obdurate. It might be that the Judge, sensing defeat, will have his name witdrawn. Labor and the Negro, through the testimony given before the committee by Walter White of the N. A. A. C. P. has had its political effect. Will the President heed? After all the question "Did the Republican party elect a Republican President?" may be a pertinent one. During the first two months of this year, California headed the list of executions with the hanging of seven men. New York was second on the list with five executions. The statistics were brought out by the American League to Abolish Capital Punishment. Their claim was; that the states which execute the most criminals are apt to have the highest homicide rate. It was not taken to account that five of the men hanged in California were convicted of killing within the prison. Of the five who went to the gallows, but one, Jim Gregg of Fresno was serving time for murder. The others were serving time for banditry and robbery. Yes, the other two who were hung in San Quentin. The prison riot in Folsom on Thanksgiving Day 1927 is responsible for the high average in California. Senator George "Gin Marriage" Rochester, 37th Senatorial District Los Angeles; was a recent visitor at the capital. We hardly believe that the Senator visited the office in the southwest corner of the Capitol. It is rumored that the Senator is to use his political knowledge to further the interest of San Francisco's Mayor, who is a candidate for the office of governor. It would seem more like southern loyalty if the representative of the 37th had declared for the home candidate. If Rolphs candidacy blows up like the Belfast Shillelah story it will throw a "Dud" for sure. Of course you all have heard how the smiling Mayor of our town exhibited a blackthorn stick heralded as a gift from James Stelfox Mayor of Belfast of the "Auld Sod." The gift was exhibited and the story told with zest. It was used to quiet the turbulent meetings of the Supervisors. Being the gift of a Lord Mayor; it was the Mace of authority. But, some Irish daily became apprized of the incident and forthwith made it known that there never was a Stelfox Mayor of Belfast. He was a GAS MAN. Oh well! Thats a pretty good man for a political campaign Friends of Governor Young who are looking out for his political interest while he attends to the affairs of his office, report a crystallization of sentiment throughout the State favorable for his retention in office. It is the opinion of this writer that the Governor will make a formal announcement of his candidacy by the time this story comes from the press. It will no doubt take the form of a statement; reviewing his administration and giving an account of the stewardship with which he was entrusted. His opponents will have to search the records with a microscope or harrow it with a fine toothed comb to pick any flaws in the administration of the affairs of the Commonwealth. The money of the taxpayer has been wisely spent. The scattered departments have been gathered and centralized. Departments have been created so that divisions within have their unit or responsibility. Heads or bureaus are responsible to the head of the department of which it is a unit. There can be no "passing the buck." The heads of the Departments constitute a cabinet or council where the affairs of the state are brought to the direct attention of the Governor. Expenditures are gone over and there is no project undertaken unless the money to complete it is in sight. There are any number of matters which claim attention and are unfulfilled because of lack of time for their proper consideration. Taxation: That most interesting question which so concerns every citizen, is being studied by a commission of experts. Legislative acts are being drawn to equalize the burden of government maintainance. Corporations and capital must pay their just and equable share. All of these call for careful study, and that is what the present administration is giving. The Governor pulled a good one the other day. He was addressing a meeting of engineers and grew quite enthusiastic in eulogizing California highways. "Why," said his Honor, "A little more than two hours ago I was 120 miles from here with a flat tire." Noticing the smile on the faces of his audience the Governor who had been speaking for near twenty minutes, caught himself. But he would not confess to breaking the speed limit. It is expected that more than 300 Negro Athletes will meet in the Tuskegee relays to be held May 3rd. This will be the fourth year of the event which draws the cream of the Race athletes from the schools in Dixie. All of the schools represented in the Southern Confrence of Negro Colleges will present their quota of athletic stars. The main contenders are Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and Tennessee. Those colleges turn out some of the finest athletes in this nation, barring none. There are athletes at Tuskegee which would give keen competition to any of the big Northern Universities. We are looking forward with impatience for the results of the meet. It is expected that many records will be broken, especially in the sprints and relays. Wonder what has become of the Dwver "Anti-Lynching Bill?" Don't hear anything more about it. As a political bubble it soon busted. It was about time that they were finding some other thing to bamboozle the gullible Negro voter. When they do, we will fall for it. Remember some time ago that the Brazilian government put the quietus on the little flurry talk of American Negro immigration to that country; brought back by a graphic description of the "promised land," when one of the Race editors made a tour through South America, and told us of the wonderful opportunities there? Why the quietus? The cat is out of the bag. Japan has contracted for 250,000 acres of Brazilian soil and is going to colonize. The Japanese will till the virgin soil and produce wealth for the Brazilian government as well as relieve the congested conditions of Japan. The Negro can hardly be persuaded to work the virgin soil of his native country. NEW ORLEANS TO ENTERTAIN FUNERAL DIRECTORS retargy, St. Julian Fenifo, Cincinnati, Ohio, Treasurer; T. M. Fletcher, Akron, Ohio, Chairman of the Executive Committee. One main feature of the proram at New Orleans will be devising means and ways of combating Burial Societies that are operated by white people exclusively for Negroes. It is the belief that Negro Funeral Directors, who pay equal tax and meet the same educational and financial requirements of the various States, should be allowed to bury their Dead; but the Executive Secretary's Office reports that during, 1929, close to a million dollars was collected from Negroes in Burial League fees. The only return from this investment on each contract is a regulation burial outfit with no privilege of choosing the Funeral Directors desired. Many other important questions will come up at the New Orleans Session which will bo of vital interest, not only to the Funeral Directors, but to the whole Negro Race. The Department of Commerce will be represented by one of their Business Specialists. Mr. James A. Jackson, One of our well-known and out-standing Chemists, Dr. Lloyd A. Hall of Chicago will also be a speaker. The nine Colored Funeral Directors of New Orleans are to be host to the Independent National Funeral Directors Association June 16. 17. 18. and 19th. Executive Secretary. R. R. Reed. Chicago recently visited New Orleans and reports that arrangements are nearing completion for the greatest meeting the annals of Colored Funeral Directors. A special train has been chartered to carry the Eastern, Western and Northern Funeral Directors and their friends to New Orleans. The train will leave Cincinnati on the night of June 14th. On the return trip, the special train of the Northern Group will spend one-half day in Tuskegee and one whole day in Atlanta, as the guests of the Atlanta Funeral Directors. There are, approximately, 3,000 Negro Funeral Directors in the United States. There are 9 casket factories, 3 Embalming Fluid and accessory plants, 1 casket supply house, 1 general Supply House, 1 Robe and Dress Manufacturing Co., actually owned and operated by our people. There is one Traues Journal, "The Colored Embalmer," published monthly by R. R. Reed, Chicago, as the Official Organ of Negro Funeral Directors. Many of these concerns will exhibit their products at the New Orleans Meeting side by side with those of white Manufacturers. TWO-M.W.-Eagle. BOOK SUGGESTIONS FOR BOY'S WEEK Since the week beginning April the twenty-seventh is known as National Boys' Week. The libraries are laying unusual stress on books for boys. The following books have been suggested by the librarians of the Helen Hunt Jackson and Vernon Branch Libraries: A Boy Scout Around The World. By Palle Huld. Arnold L. Moss of the Geddes and Moss Undertaking Co., is President of the New Orleans Local Association. In 1929, the firm of Geddes and Moss buried over one thousand bodies and did over $100,000.00 worth of business. Joseph P. Geddes is the Chairman of the Local Entertainment Committee. A fascinating book containing the actual experiences of a Danish scout on a trip around the world made in forty-four days. The Independent National Funeral Directors Association was founded by R. R. Reed in 1924 in the City of Chicago, and has now become of valuable interest to each Negro Funeral Director. G. William Saffell, Shelbyville, Ky., is its President: Edward W. Stone, Tampa, Fla., Recording Secretary; R. R. Reed, Executive Sec- A thrilling story of American aviation from the first experiments of the Wright brothers to the end of the eventful year, 1927 told by Lieutenant Maitland who participated in the first successful flight to Hawaii. Tal, His Marvelous Adventures With Noom-Zor-Noom. By Paul F. Cooner. Y. M. C. A. NOTES The Y. M. D.'s once again brought credit and honor to their organization when three of their constituents, Wilbur Dyson, Carl Jefferson and Kenneth Spencer presented themselves before white audience and city Post Office employees at one of the leading churches in La Crescental, Spencer with his deep, rich basen-voice stormed the house in his renoition of Negro Spirituals. Of course, flutist Dyson and saxophonist Jefferson lifted the roof of the affair with their enticing melodies. All and all the fellows brought credit to their race, to themselves, their organization and to the "Y". The demonstrated real inter-racial propaganda; prejudice is reduced more quickly when the other race realizes what can be done by those whom they are often likely to misunderstand. Sunday, May 4th, at 3:00 P. M. the "Hygeal" will hold its special Health Program in the lobby of Inte 28th St. "Y".

The Boys' Camp at Round Meadow in August, and the opening of the new Blue Sky Caterer on Sunday April 27. 1930 are other interesting events. This calendar of events insures every "Y" man sope fascinating times for himself and his associates. The Y. M. D. Orchestra already famous for its ensemble work is very busy enlarging its "reporteur" in order to present itself over K.H.J. on the Weekly "Y" hour. The "embryo" will emerge from its musical shell in the near future. In fact, if it is "class" that you wish call on the Y.M.D. The E. A. T. Organization have banded themselves together to demonstrate economics. They will soon announce to the public the opening of their first co-operative venture; a group of young men who believe that "to know is to do." BOYS' DAY AT THE LIBRARY The club room of the Helen Hunt Jackson Branch Library was the scene of a delightful and inspiring program on Wednesday. April the thirtieth to celebrate Boys' Day at the library. Similar celebrations were held throughout the city at the Central Library and the forty-nine branches of the Los Angeles Public Library. Mrs. Byrd Machida, Children's Librarian of the Helen Hunt Jackson Branch was in charge of the program and had many surprises for the large group of boys who crowded the club room. The speaker of the afternoon was Rey Beane of the Hamilton M. E. church who accessed the boys very informally holding them 'spell-bound with his most inspiring though highly humorous remarks. A marvelous imaginary tale of Tal, boy of nine, who goes journeying with Noom-Zor-Noom, a fantastic, kindly old man, and his snow-white monkey. Their journey to the kingdom of Troom ends in a dramatic episode when the kings recognizes in Tal his long lost son. 28th Street Drive-In Market Pasadena Section Randolph A. M. M. E. Zion, Rev. L.

Thursday evening, April 24, when the Fleur-de-lis bridge and Art club of Pasadena commemorate its first anniversary by giving a formal ball. More than 300 guests were present and dancing featured the evening entertainment. Benjamins 'enchanting syncopaters were really at their best. The hall was beautifully decorated in the club colors, green and white. At 2 o'clock a chord from the orchestra was sounding and all members grouped themselves under an arch of roses and fern. All were dressed in green evening gowns and white shoes and carried canes with white bows. They marched out and were presented by Mrs. Ollie Ann Robinson as follows: Mrs Willye Elder, pres.; Mrs. Elizabeth Asbury, vice-pres.; Mrs. Lillian Pitts, secy.; Mrs. Sarah Turner, treas.; Mrs. Ralee Brownlee, reporter; Mrs. Blanche Christian, Mrs. Jessie Heard and Mrs Irene Tely, members and Mrs. Mildred Hatcher, associate member. Mrs. Robinson also gave a brief synopsis of the meaning of "Fleur de Lis. At 12 the guests departed, having had the time of their life. Pasadena Renaissance Defeat Oakland The P. J. C. Renaissance, the popular Pasadena boys' club, basketball team defeated the "Y" Baccaracs 16-14. The Bacc's, the boy region champions, have succeeded in cleaning up everything up north and proved to be tough opponents for the Renaissance. The first half seemed to be in the favor of the "Y's". The Pasadena boys were slow in getting started. Near the end of the first period Carter and Ford each made a basket and the Renna seemed to come to life. The score at the end of the first half was 8 to 5 favor of the northerners. The second half was a different story. The powerful Renaissance machine began to work and Pasadena showed plenty of action. The score was soon tied. G. Jones made the basket which gave Pasadena the lead. From then on it was a fight to the finish. When the final whistle blew the Renaissance were victorious. Ford and D. Jones of Oakland tied for high point honors with six digits each. While they were up north members of the Renaissance visited the Groceries Groceries Specials For Friday, Saturday and Sunday S. & W.

AFTERNOON TEA A DELIGHTFUL AFFAIR The tea given last Sunday afternoon by Hiawatha Temple, No. 91 I. B. P. O. E. W. at the home of Dtr. Ruler Mrs. Leila Murray, 1300 W. 35th St. was an unusually pretty affair. The house was tastefully decorated with some of the season's prettiest flowers and greenery which together with the lovely gowns worn by the ladies, presented a picture to see. Dtrs. Edna Elgin and Ella White served, and it was very irragelyattended. Mrs. Mabel Ruffian of 2009 E 116th street, assisted by Mrs Grace Boswell entertained very informally with an old fashion southern breakfast Monday morning honoring attorney Violet Anderson, Mrs. Lillian Summers and Mrs. Alison all of Chicago. Covers were laid for Dr. Emily Brown Childress, Mesdame Laura Smitherman, June Banks, R King, L Duggett, Byrd Machida and Willie Selby. Mrs. Ruffian, Mrs Boswell, Atty. Anderson and Mrs. Summers were girlhood friends in college at Boston and Chicago. Mrs. Ida Hudson, who has been in New York for the past year return to the city last week to spend a few weeks with relatives and friends. Mr. and Mrs. Bryant and daughter Miss Georgia Bryant of Riverside motored up to the city over the weekend to attend the confirmation at St. Phillips Episcopal church Sunday Evening when their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. T. L. Wilson were confirmed, after which a family supper was enjoyed at their sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Jones.

Mesdames Ada Lewis, Mamie Jackson, Ruth James, Alma McKinney, Gertrude Mitchell, Bertha Jones and Camille Keyes were joint hostesses to the Sorors and members of the Rho club of the Rho Psi Phi Medical Sorority at their literary meeting Tuesday held at the Sorority House. An original story based on actual experience was given by Mrs. Malinda Wade. Musicale selections were rendered by Miss Freida Shaw and Mrs. Carol Johnson and Miss Grace Logan. Five minute talks were given by Atty. Violet Anderson, Mrs. Lillian Summers of Chicago, Mrs. Edna Carter, Miss Beatrice Thompson and Mrs. Florence Gordon. Or who wouldn't go out of their way to buy their Meats, Groceries, etc., at a Market like the newly established 28th STREET DRIVE--IN MARKET? Moving in from Santa Monica Boulevard, Mr. A. Singer has opened one of the finest stocked GROCERIES in the city. Real Hollywood variety at lower than current Central Avenue prices. A glance at his price list will reveal the fact that he intends to courteously co-operate with the housewives of the neighborhood in economizing with their budgets. As related before, Mr. L. M. Sullivan, Prop. of the MEAT DEPARTMENT, has as his slogan, the "Freshest of Meats at the lowest prices. Courtesy, Service and Co-operation." (Continued From Page One) Murphy, Afro-American, J. W. Thompkins, Kansas City American; "Foreign advertising copy—How shall we handle it?" by representatives from Chicago Defender and Atlanta Independent; "The Advantages of Mats over Electros and Stereos for Large Newspapers," by representatives from Courier, Afro-American, and Chicago Defender; "Shal our papers unite on the 12, 12 1-2, or 13 ems column?" Mrs. Beulah Young, Detroit Peoples News, and J. $_{E}$. E. Mitchell, St. Louis The following groups are desirable from which to make specific stock selections. This is particularly true at present because they are what might be called the "necessity" sort and not "luxury," the theory being that too many people have lost money in the stock market lately in order to be able to indulge very much in luxuries. We must eat whether we were bereft of our brokerage account or not. Therefore Food stocks, or stocks in companies which manufacture or sell food products, are good to buy now. Some of them afford opportunities by reason of their strong entrenched positions in public favor due to advertising and excellence of product. Railroad stocks should be considered in these groups also. The railroads have just enjoyed the most prosperous 9 months in their history. The record of freight loadings to the end of October was about 4 percent ahead of the same time a year ago. Besides, the declines in these issues during this late market slump were less than were registered among the general run of industrials. The oil group is not of the luxury sort, for obvious reasons. The industry has been trying for three years to inaugurate some practical plan of self regulation in point of crude production, but the job has been a hard one. For nearly a year each report for the week showed a gain in crude production. Value were far from stabilization and many of the companies made mor money than ever before. But they are making headway in control and results are beginning to be apparent. The situation is summed up in a nut shell by Mr. Joseph Pague consulting engineer, "Ratification," said he, "in the petroleum industry will be attained first in the refining and marketing branches where this undertaking will meet less resistance, and then proceed more slowly to the field of crude production where more serious delays will intervene because of the inertia of obsolete legal restrictions and the ill-advised opposition of small interests." Then come the copper group. The price should stay around 18 cents for copper, because late reports seem to indicate that stocks of the red metal on hand show a slight decline over the past week. But looking ahead for a year or more it might be possible that what is called Rhodian copper may enter the market in great quantities, to the disturbance of prices. It will be a long time, however, before any glutting in the market will occur from the new mines in Africa, for consumption should almost keep pace with production no matter whence the new supply. Steel stocks are surely far and away from the luxury classification. Companies report good operating schedules with a wholesome absence of heavy inventions. Whatever slackening in demand is to be felt from the automotive industry will or should be offset by increased orders from railroads and construction sources. In these groups, bargains will be found by those intent on finding them.

Porter and the Citizens Water and Power Committee have caused to be prepared a map, which presents this information in graphic form. That the $38,800,000 bond issue is the very minimum that could be authorized at this time properly to meet the city's water needs is clearly revealed by studying the map, the Citizens Committee points out.

TECHNOLOGICAL UNEMPLOYMENT IN AMERICA MENT IN AMERICA There was in February apparently 3.7,00,000 men unemployed in America. This means a loss of $400,000,000. Unemployed workers lost $1,000. 000,000 the first three months of 1930. This loss of money alone would stimulate business. The only remedy for the unemployment situation is mass production industries and it is a well known fact that the capitalist does not like the America Federation of Labor not even as much as they do Communism.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN I was at the Wadsworth School Building Monday evening witnessing the closing of the Vocational Oppor- tunity Campaign of the Urban League. The occasion was interesting and impressive. Mr. Louis S. Tenette, the acting executive secretry, seeks to be a mighty good actor. He seems to have the work clearly in vision and firmly in hand. Now, the proof of the pudding is in the eating. Just why cannot Mr. Tenette be allowed to go on with that work? An ancient mason was on the wall of Zion doing a good job building the wall. A messenger from a king came along and called him down. He said to the messenger, "Why should I leave this wall and come down to you? I am doing the work." Building on the foundation so well laid by his efficient predecessors, led by such a President as Dr. Baumann, supported by such a Board of Directors, it does seem that Mr. Tenette should go on with the work so well begun. I move that the Board of Directors nominate Mr. Tenette for permanent Secretary to those concerned higher up and leave the question of his confirmation to them. Los Angeles needs employment. Yours truly for employment. Close Observer. HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN! AT THE KIDDIES' SPRING FASHION SHOW You just can't afford to miss seeing the Kiddies in the latest creations.

Miss Diggs caused quite a sensation. Someone telephoned asking us why the Delta Pledges are so frériedly with one certain A. K. A. Pledge. We should tell everything we know. Congratulations to Miss Gladys Harris who celebrated her birthday in the month of April. Miss Harris is a County Welfare Worker, and also Advisor to the Omega Gamma Rho's.

SPOTLIGHT BY BILL EDWARDS Well, here we are—still spotting around throwing the light here and there, brightening up the shady nooks and corners. * * * * We sincerely hope that if the Spotlight gets into your eyes you will not be blinded nor seek bloody revenge.

The Delphic Girls packed 'em in at the Dayton St. Hall in Pasadena last Friday. Ano it was really a melting pot. They came from everywhere and were of all classes and shades.

We caught the Silver Foxes on Parade too-last Friday everything was in order and went off according to Hoyle. Last Sunday the Kappa Guide Right program was held at Wesley Chapel Church.

Brother Floyd Covington, Pledge Bro, Willie Middleton spoke on Educational Religion, Bro. Edgar Johnson on Business and Professions, Bro. Loren Miller on Labor and Economics. A Brass trio composed of Ronald Jefferson, Bernhard Jefferson and Jack, Bratton rendered two well-received selections. A vocal trio, consisting of Pledge Brothers, Bill Williams, Percy Williams and Gary Ragland were the spot of the evening, those boys really got in a huddle, sounded like the Biltmore Trio. Then the old favorite Lawrence Lassiter the Violin genius charmed with his marvelous mastery. Last but not least the entire frat sang the fraternity anthem "O Noble Kappa Alpha Psi" Taken all in all it was a well rounded program. The high school senior boys of the city were guests of the Kappa frot at a smoker last Saturday night. The first annual semi-formal dance of the nurses of Los Angeles County General Hospital last Thursday the 24 at Ross Snyger's Club House was truly a very unique and exclusive affair with the honor guests being Misses Juanita Guy, Melrose Jones, Irene Broadway and Miss Barnett Bush. Judging this as their first attempt; we certainly, would like to see their 2nd annual. What's this Edith Keyser and Inez Racer have up their sleeve? A little light on the subject would be appreciated by?—Maybe one of those secret boys. Spotted little Thelma Webb at the Delphic dance, many inquires have been made as to her whereabouts she's not in Duarte now, but in L.A. on west 37th St. Herman Hill the star trackster at U. S.

Mrs. Van Meter and Mrs. Theresa Mendoza, Vice-Presidents; Mrs. Ada Luck, secretary; and Mrs. Thomas Lee treasurer. The officers will be installed in June. The passing of Miss Mattie L. Richardson, principal of Stamton Ave school, is keenly felt by our people of the East side especially and the members of the P. T. T. A., for Miss Richardson stood on the firing line like a good soldier. It will be remembered that a few years ago when a Negro girl was sent to that school as a teacher, her presence was resented by several of the white teachers who did not want a Negro teacher. Miss Richardson, after talking the matter over with the Executive Board of the P. T. A. of that school, showed her loyalty and behalf in right, by standing by the woman and defending her as a good American citizen with the result that the five white teachers who opposed, resigned and the Negro girl is teaching there now and well liked and respected by the teachers who remained. The East Side needs more teachers and principals of the caliber of Miss Richardson, but we bow in submission to Him who doeth all thing Best. The F. O. C. B. C. is giving, away Gold.

Says Leroy Beavers of the 'Golden State' "seems like they would stop knocking their business and boosting the colored-insurance companies by offering feeble excuses as to why with their several million dollars worth of business they find it impossible to hire, at least, a janitor for a hundred per mo." Say, by the way, did you see the eclipse last Monday, John? "Er no, replied Edgar just about the time the moon got in front of the sun why Miss Good Looking got between me and the moon. Doxology, x x x Last Saturday nite about the hour of 7:20 p.m., some three thousand married men attempted to shove some four thousand, good looking single gents away from the main entrance to Masonic Temple at 50th street. Twas a terrible sight to see the baldheaded, bewhiskered old man of 90 and under attempting to hold his place in the struggle with the slick looking, smartly dressed society young gent of 21 and over. About seven hundred finally crowded into the half that was built to accommodate 500 and the police finally dispersed the thousands outside and saved the building from being shoved over. The attraction? Oh I forgot it was the annual smoker of the American Legion, "Ben Bowfe Post" and from what the 790 who got in are saying, why the boys will hatter hold it in Wrigley Ball Park next year. Were we there, you boy? No, sorry, but that was prayer meeting night taid the young sheik, Amos Alibi who leads class No. 2 in the Sinners' Congregational church. "Well you mind it bud said Rev.

We couldn't see the stone for regahats, plug hats, coirns, banners, white gloves, aprons, human beings, and food more specifically described as tried chicken. The job was completed about 6:00 and everyone left for their respective homes. Chickens are so scarce, this week, in Duarte that they are quoted at 75c a lb. on foot. X X X Are you, madam, a member of that club that is studying to be Republicans. They call it the "Republican Study Club." Poor thing it's only about 200 strong and still growing. This organization is the nearest thing to solving the problem of perpetual motion we've seen in some time. The harder its knockers try to stem its growth by attempting to shut off its motor, apply the brakes, or lay obstacles in its way the faster its membership grows. Gee, but for once in life I declare I wish I wore a dress, mebby they'd elect me president of their august body. Who's that said I got another thot coming? Telephone Mr. Exhaust, er for me; thank you. Hello, hello. Yes, this is he speaking. What's that? What? When? Oh yes, yes. No, I'm sorry can't be there.

One of the most deplorable things to ever occur, happened in the Gardens late Saturday night or early SOUTHERN SENATOR SAME SENATOR GIPP Sunday morning when some one tore the new cornerstone from Mt. Olive Baptist church and demonlished it. It was found in the weeds on a lot next to the church broken into seven or eight pieces. This is not only a blot on the church but a disgrace to the whole Gardens. The cornerstone was laid with great ceremonies about two months ago and several of the churches from town were present at the ceremonies.

Call loudly for other help and then proceed to give first aid. Lay the patient out flat if possible, next if it can be done raise bleeding part higher than the heart, this tends to check the bleeding. Blood clots are natures method of healing and stitching a wound, never wipe them away while waiting for a doctor. What Color Is The Patient's Face You should always watch the face of an injured person very carefully. If the face is red, raise the head very slightly. If it is pale, keep head low. If lips are blue patient is suffocating, and needs air. See whether tongue is in back part of throat, of whether tight bands are cutting off respiration. Never allow the crowd to press closely upon an injured person. The crowd excites and worries any one who is conscious; and in any event the close pressure cuts off the air which the injured one needs. Be sure to keep patient warm, chilling after an injury often causes severe congestion of the lungs, and the patient may recover from the accident they will often die of pneumonia. Use hot water bottles ano blankets, and rubbing to the limbs and body. Do not give whisky it causes a secondary deitiation of the blood vessels of the skin, and consequently greater chillings and greater shock. Ammonia may be used to revive a faint, or cold water to the head and face. In opium poisoning do not let the patient sleep. The body must oxidize the poison or it will prove fatal. Only constant exercise can help the boby to burn up the poison. So tho a person poisoned with opium may fight for sleep, take them by the arm-two or three of you if necessary and walk them up and down as fast as you can until all drowsiness is passed. Bleeding Bleeding may come from many causes and sources. Before acting in a given case try to determine the source of the bleeding and get if possible the idea of the cause. Try also to determine whether the patient has already lost a great quantity of blood, or whether just a small or moderate amount. The two best ways to determine this, by the looks of the patient and by the feeling of the pulse. If the patient is pale, especially around the mouth and lips, and if the pulse feels very rapid and soft or "emphy" then the patient is very likely to be in a critical condition, with danger of death from hemorrhage at any time. Therefore get a physician as soon as possible. In the mean time stop bleeding if possible supply fluid sips of water if the patient can take them. Spurting or jutting of blood means a cut artery slowly flowing, or gently flowing blood of a darker hue means a cut vein. Bleeding from an artery can be stopped only by pressure. In case of a fairly small sized vessel the bleeding can usually be stopped by placing the ball of the thumb directly against the bleeding point itself. Keep up this pressure until the doctor comes. (To Be Continued In Next Issue) ON THE SIDE WALK (Continued From Page One) cussed topic of the evening was the water bond issue to which the women, as a body, stamped their approval. Mrs. Thomas, the president of this club is to be highly congratulated upon her method of increasing the numerical strength of the organization. The Hon. John C. Porter, Mayor of Los Angeles, sent forth a call to a group of forward looking citizens to meet him in the council chambers last Tuesday afternoon, April 29th, at 3:30 o'clock. His invitation met with a most hearty response and the chambers were filled with eager citizens, who believe that the future prosperity of Los Angeles depends largely upon the successful passage of the $38.800,000 Bond issue, which will be voted upon, May 20th. Among the prominent speakers who spoke in behalf of the water bonds upon this occasion were Bishop Cantrell, Bob Shuler, George Baker, past president of the Eastside Association and a representative from the Labor Council, who declared that labor was 100 per cent for the bonds: Joseph Scott and others. The meeting was presided over by Mr. Bullock. Mayor Porter in his opening remarks, said, in part, that unless we vote these bonds we will actually have a water shortage. It was rather a satisfying experience to note that among those present was a large representation of our group. The Industrial Council will hold its second meeting at the Wadsworth Seventh Day Adventist Church, Sunday, May 18, at 3 P. M. It is hoped that all those persons who signed up as members on the occasion of the organization of the Council, Sunday afternoon, April 13th, at the Second Baptist Church, will be present, and others who are interested in the economic welfare of our group.

BATEMAN *Carry me back to Ole' virginny.* Dah's whah de cotten, corn and sweet potatoes grow; Dah's whah de birds warble sweet in de springtime Dah's whah dis ole darkey's haht does long to go.* So, just as Old Sol turns his fiery glances toward the distant western horizon we pull into the station. At last in Ole Virginny! The city of Richmond, to be more explicit. I am unnerved! The humiliation suffered on the Jim Crowhawls left me in a state of mind so apprehensive of evil that I dread alighting. I would crouch down into that stifling, hot corner of the space allotted those so unfortunate as to be born to color) and remain until the shades of night have fallen that I might be swallowed up in their embrace. "All out.—Richmond!" yells the conductor and regardless of my trepidation. I gather bag and baggage and rush forward. There are red caps there. Brown skinned ones I should have felt at home. To the contrary however, their stucced avoidance of any contact with those of color brought to my mind what I had heard concerning Red Cap service in the South. Someone had told me that a Red Cap is not allowed to take the baggage of a Negro, at least not as long as his service is needed by the whites. Not receiving any attention. I struggle forward loaded to the nth degree with all my baggage, unshred tears of aggravation hot in my eyes. I go up the same passage-way ignorant of any other and am confused when I find no other persons of color there. In fact there are no others in the room. It is a long room off the main "white" waiting room, flanked on either side and down the center with benches. A nice clean pleasant room it is, seemingly designed to take care of the overlow passengers from the main "white" waiting room. It's empty desolate condition gave me my first impression of the poverty-sicklen condition of the Southland. Even beyond in the main waiting room there is an absence of activity. A few persons idle around, seemingly more to rest on the various provisions for comfort than anything else. The rigid faced girl in one of the windows precludes any attempt on my part of advances for information. I am in the South and am bound by its hatred of my kind. Finally I notice telephone booths and determine thereupon to make an attempt, though they lynch me, to call my sister. Unspeakable relief is mine when I recognize her voice at the other end. It gives me courage to hope that I might survive a few days in this cursed country, if she has managed so to do. A Red Cap saunters by and then as tho sensing the fact that we are Strangers in a strange country he retracts his steps. Upon receiving my reprehensible thoughts of the South in general and its treatment of our kind in particular he proceeds to pour soothing oil of pretended bliss on my head. SCORN Ah yes, I sent for you but, go! I wish, but to be left alone Forgive me, please, I did not know One's heart could really turn to stone. Please go, I cannot bear your scorn, Your stare: your cold unfriendly eyes, They taint me, only yester-morn, I lived with you in paradise. But wait, (one moment's quite enuf) That I may match your frigid air, That I may copy your rebuff, 'Twill make my lot easy to bear. You found me rich with love and trust; I knew no duty but to give; You leave me bitter, with disgust; A woman starting out to live. -Iva O. Reed. --- Alpha Phi Alpha Begins Annual Educational Campaign Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity has set apart the week of May 4th to 11th in which to conduct its annual Go To High School. Go To College Campaign. This campaign is the forerunner of all and similar movements and programs conducted by various organizations to create interest in the value of education. By means of it the fraternity attempts in various ways to stimulate the ambition of our boys and girls to seek education and search for truth. Thus Alpha Phi Alpha is engaged in a militant effort to uplift and betterment, for promotion of the highest ideals of manhood and womanhood, and for creating interest in the higher and finer things of life. According to the leaders of the movement there is great need for effective work among Negro youth. In the census of 1920, of the population 10 years and over, the percentage of illiteracy shown was 5.9. Of this native white, 2 per cent were illiterate; the foreign born, 13.1 per cent were illiterate; the Negro, 22.9 per cent were illiterate. The Go To High School. Go To College Campaign works for the benefit of American boys and girls regardless of race or creed and happens to be one of the few movements in this country that does not ask the public for financial assistance. Each year people of various races and religious creeds participate in this great program. These include ministers, educators, business and professional men and women, authors, high officials of government, publishers and captains of industry. Churches and social service organizations eagerly volunteer their co-operation. About one hundred of our prominent Race leaders have been assigned to speak it all sections of the country during the week of May 4th. Many of them will be heard over broadcasting stations, instructive and inspiring litterateurs has been compiled and is being distributed to the chapters for use during the campaign week. Already requests are being received for this from high schools and social organizations. Local chapters will conduct public meetings, talks before various student bodies, and will make personal contacts with parents. Movie slides, circulars, bulletins and personal letters and placards with further acquaint the public with the purpose of the movement. The Go To School. Go To College Campaign is only one of several activities carried on by the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity through its Department of Education Activities. It is not an attempt, necessarily, to make college graduates of every boy and girl. it is however, an urge that every boy and girl be equipped with as much knowledge and training as is possible in order that each may fit into the scheme of life with greatest usefulness. This Year the Go To High School. Go To College Campaign is being operated in 36 states. The official staff is as follows: NationalDirector: Raymond W. Cannon. State Directors—Alabama. G. W. A.

RECITAL Last evening, Monday, April 28th, in the Major Theater Beaux Arts, Irving Hardon, Baritone (colored) gave a most pleasing and artistic recital of classic numbers and spirituals. The concert was a success from every standpoint, considering Mr. Hardon has only recently returned from Boston; where at the recommendation of incomparable Roland Hayes, he has studied for three years, with Hubbard, former teacher of Mr. Hayes. Rudolf von Iebisch was at the piano and truly he himself with his exquisite touch and anticipative feeling and understanding is a treat. Mr. Hardon gives great promise that America shall know in the future another highlight of his race. He has most prominently two of the qualities that has made for success in Hayes, viz MIND and CHARACTER. He is a sincere and earnest student, with expression; and good articulation; as well as much feeling; and thus does not bore his audience with monotony of utterance. Let its boost our artists here in America. Why should each and all be required to struggle for acceptance in Europe before America recognizes and patronizes greatness. And wouldn't it help wonderfully if our clubs would voluntarily employ such talent as often as possible; giving the public a beautiful treat and the artist the financial assistance he requires.

Here Smith testified the same as Albritton on his direct examination about leaving from Rampart street and going in two cars to Pasadena; Sharashia leading to the place which was to be robbed, also as to how they entered the store, testifying identically as Albritton did as to the flourishing of the gun. Q.-What did you do? Ans.-I turned around and came out. Q.-How far did you get into the room? Ans.-I did not pay any attention. Q.-Who did you see as you came outside? Ans.-I saw Sharashia.

Shirashi admitted going to Pasadena with Albritton and Smith Thursday before the crime was committed. Adjournment for noon recess. Judge, jury, attorneys, officers and ye Eagle scribe visit scene of tragedy. The actors in the court scene which compose the personnel in the trial of the People vs. Sharashi, the Japanese in the case of Albritton and Smith and Sharashi, shifted to 34 Pido St, Pasadena, the Chinese gambling house in which the Chinaman was shot to death on the evening of February 22nd. The jury viewed the scene to better enable them in arriving at their conclusions in the case. JAP FURNISHES THE BRAINS FOR WATCHING CRIME Out of the trial to date conclusive evidence has been brought to light that the Jap, Sharashi, furnished the brains that planned the robbery, of the late Bing Wong gambling house at 34 Pico street in Pasadena, at which place the murder was committed. His two accomplices whom he used freely indeed have already plead guilty to the part they played and have been sentenced to life imprisonment. Shirashi' is through his attorneys putting up a stiff opposition and fighting to a finish to escape perhaps the death penalty or murder in the first degree without recommendation. TUESDAY. 10:00 A. M. Paul Sweinefert from Jefferson High in keeping with boys week was on the bench beside Judge Hardy. Officer Randall still on the stand: Q—Now Mr. Randall on yesterday you testified that after you arrested Shariarshi, that you took him to Central Station before you took him to Pasadena?

Upon arriving at Pasadena you told him that he was arrested for murder? Ans.—Yes. He further stated the Japanese was questioned for 30 hours. Cooper calls upon officer to state the conversation in its entirety. Judge and counsel go into secret conference while court room fans wait in silence. At this point the court receives report of Dr. Plank's recommendations concerning the condition of Mrs. Mattie Albritton, mother of Theodore 'Albritton. R. E.

Q—Was he arrested and taken to Pasadena? Ans.—Yes. Q.—Who took him to Pasadena? Ans.—Officer Myron, myself and others. Q.—State the conversation if any at time of arrest? After violent objection and lengthy argument by Cooper on behalf of defense, he was overruled and question proceeded: Ans.—He said he had no car as any time. Q.—Do you know Teddy Albritton and Billy Russell? Ans.-No. He also said Teddy worked in the Federal Building. Smith was brought over and identified Shairaishi who was with he and Albritton Saturday night, Feb. 22. Q-Go ahead, state conversation?

I bought the badge and I will tell you a lot of stuff. Page--Seven For the third time Mrs. Gladys Albritton, wife of Theodre was offered as a witness but each time was denied privilege of testifying for the state by objections on behalf of defense which were upheld by the court. But finally the court overruled Mr. Cooper's objection and Mrs. Albritton was permitted to testify as follows: Q—Do you live with Albritton's parents? Ans.—Yes. Q—Did you have any conversation with this defendant, Shariashi on or about Feb. 22nd this year? Ans.—Yes. Q—Will you state that conversation?

She testified as follows: The telephone rang. I heard a voice and said is this Frank? Q—What next? Ans.—I told his wife to be still?

Mrs. Albritton resumed her testimony after the recess: Q—Mrs. Albritton is it not a fact that you intend to assist your husband and you will gain some consideration for him. Ans—Yes. State rests and defense calls its first witness, Mr. Saido. This closes as far as the defense of Albritton is concerned. They having already pleaded guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment. The fate of Shairaishi, the arch conspirator, in whose hands these guileless young men fell and were his tools, will rest in the hands, of the jury whose verdict is anxiously For Quick Results On SALES, RENTALS Call on Us for Bargains List Your Property With SUNNYSIDE REALTY CO. 2807 Central Ave. HUmbolt 6371 --- Page----Eight THE SECOND B The Second Baptist Celebration of Its F Beginning Sunday, May 4th All the Churches that went on have since developed are being as celebration.

Eichelberger, Jr. Director of Religious Education CHICAGO. April 29—The program of the General Church School Convention of the African M. E. Zion Church to be held at Detroit, Mich. August 5-11, 1930 will be a distinct departure in denominational programs according to a release today by the religious education department headquarters in this city. The major emphasis of the convention will be a study and interpretation of factual data concerning human needs and the corresponding religious implications. Such problems as health, friendship, sex, parenthood and family life, citizenship recreation, economic and vocational activities will be presented by specialists. These specialists are being selected. it is said, from various denominations and national social agencies. An unusual amount of time is to be given to general discussion of each topic. This feature, it is predicted will create a sensation within the denomination and a probable clash in the convention between conservatives and progressives regarding several of the delicate problems to be discussed and the attempt to project the denomination into stupendous social adventures It is expected that church architecture and reckless expenditure for church buildings will also provoke much discussion. A leadership training and Christian Endeavor School is to be conducted daily. There is to be an exhibit showing the progress in religious education. A special edition of a song book has been published by the department for the convention. A large convention chorus is now being organized in Detroit. Five thousand delegates are expected representing almost every State, Africa and West Indies. Reduced rates of one and one half fare on the certificate plan have been granted by all passenger associations in the United States. The transportation committee is designating the official routes to the convention. It has refused to designate any bus service which discriminates as to seating of passengers on account of race or color Only railroads that assure comfortable facilities, especially on the return trip, will be named, it is said. This Convention is the quadrennial meeting of all (Sunday School, Christian Endeavor, and other educational agencies of the African M. E. Zion Church, the second largest Methodist body in America. It is the largest attended gathering in the denomination. 2000 having attended the previous session at Washington, D. C. in 1926.

Zion Church Palm Sunday, the day which brings to mind that great demonstration attendant on Jesus' triumphant entrance into Jerusalem, was celebrated by Rev. Moore with a wonderful treatise on the significance of the palm branch. A vivid picture of this scene, the joypraise Thee' was drawn for the audience which also had explained the significance of the "King of Israel". The swift transition from this period of rejoicing to the death of Christ now comes and on Easter Sunday, Rev. Moore began his message teling of the Fellowship of His suffering, going on to emphasize the Power of the Resurrection. "Easter is the greatest Day" said Rev. Moore, "climaxing Christmas and all others, for, without the Church would be false. The Resurrection gave us the hope and assurance of life." Mrs. Ethel Hurd rendered very sweetly an appropriate soprano solo, while the choir gave special selections. On the evening of Easter Sunday the choir under the direction of Mrs. Evelyn Solomon gave a program which was very well received. Solos were rendered by Mrs. Hurd, Mrs. Billips, Mrs. Solomon.

The work of gathering the names has been somewhat slow, due in many instances to failure on the part of persons to properly co-operate, when approached for information necessary to make the book complete and the success that we intend it shall be. Only a few districts remain to be worked and it is hoped that when the girls, whom we have employed to take the names of residents, come to your door, that you will not make their work difficult by refusing to give your name. When this Directory is completed, it will contain the proper enumeration of the Negro population in Los Angeles, and other valuable information and features to the extent that no home or business firm will want to be without a copy. THANKS! WFST TEMPLE SUBSCRIBERS We are exceedingly grateful to the subscribers in West Temple District for the response given us while collecting out there last week. It is a custom of ours to phone subscribers before visiting a district, and nearly every case did the people of West Temple cooperate, to such extent that we collected the largest amount of money in the shortest time that it has been our good fortune to report since taking this part of the newspaper work last October. The people of West Temple seem to be prosperous and happy, and we heard no snipping of the blues and crying of "hard times" as is so often the case when we approach those who owe, Verily, as man thinketh, so is he. We were happy to note so many evidences of prosperity. Hollywood district will be visited next, and we would like to find the same condition existing there—F. E. G. S. DO YOU THINK IT IS A JOKE when appraached about your subscription account? Otherwise, why won't you be fair and pay up? This applies, we are happy to say, to only a very small number of those on our subscription list, for the great majority of our family of readers are loyal and pay when the collector calls or set a time when she may return, or at least are fair enough to regard time to the extent that if financially unable to pay a part of what is due, will so state and to these, we are always glad to extend clemency. But there are some, who it seems insist on getting something for nothing, have no regard for their own word, place absolutely no value on time, and some few who really take on the aspect of a dead-beat—they will accept the paper thru the mail for an indefinite length of time and only become aroused to the fact that they do not wanna the paper, when asked to ray.

Heretofore there has been a lack of interest among colored fans either because they had never seen a real one, did not understand the holds or had listened to the lies that they were always fakes. Anyone who watches one match will go again. There is more tenseness more possibility of something happening than there is in the average glove fight. When two wrestlers are motionless locked together on the floor in a tangled mixture of legs and arms they are each straining every muscle of their powerful bodies in an attempt to get the advantage. to mention the belt.

GREATEST MODERN MATCH Not since Frank Gotch beat Hackenshmidt has there been a match staged in like proportions and with interest so great. Sonnenberg arrived from Boston Sunday, and almost immediately afterwards left with Promoter Daro for a secret training camp about 25 miles from Los Angeles. The mat king was accompanied by two trainers and his manager. He brought the $10,000 championship belt with him and he will have it at Wrigley Field when he steps into the ring to wrestle in defense of his title. SUPPORTING CARD Dan Koloff, the Balkan mat lion who made an impressive showing here several weeks ago when he defeated Gene La Doux has been signed to meet Don George. Nick Lutze, the popular local heavyweight, will tackle John Spellman. Ad Hermann, the rough, Dutchman, will clash with Rex Smith, slugging heavyweight from St. Louis, in the opener. Smith is the wrestler who swapped holds and punches with Lutze here two weeks ago. Over a week ago it looked like a sell-out at big Wrigley Field but there are still a few seats left. Those in charge of the downtown Olympic office, 39 Spring Street Arcade, report that they received for reservations from all sections of the state, both by mail and by telephone. Colored Cooks Make Oakmont Golfers Golf When Napoleon, Julius, Ceasar, Alexander the Great, or whatever ancient top sergeant it was, wise cracked that an army travels on its stomach, he said a mouthful. He meant that an army travels and fights according to the way it is fed; the better the men are fed, the better soldiers they make. The same thing applies to the athletic games as it does to the army game and according to the members of the Oakmont Golf club it especially applies to golf. Th Oakmont golf and Country club situated away out Glendale way in the beautiful hills is the only Country club of the many here that has a full colored crew of cooks and waiters, William Jones or "Bill" as he likes to be called is the chef. Big, genial, but full, of business there is not a French chef in any of the finest hostelries that has anything on him. From fifty to five hundred, it makes no difference to him. By his excellent clock-like system he can serve them in short time and to their best satisfaction. One of his secrets is that he has surrounded himself with most capable assistants, and they all gladly do their best as he is highly appreciative.

A big out-door boxing event unsurpassed by many held anywhere will be staged at White Sox Park 38th and Ascot next Saturday night, May 3rd. Colored citizens as a rule are good fight fans, the more so because so many notable fighters have been members of the race, but they will be naturally the more interested in a match taking place right in their very midst. RAY STILL. WHO WILL BOX BERT COLIMA Has one of the most impressive records of any middleweight now campaigning in the West. Still has fought Rene Devos, Jack Willis, Joe Cardoza, Joe Bitto and Dave Shade. The Oklahoma middleweight won from Shade on a foul, drew with Willis and beat Cardoza and Bitto. to his battles. A little over a year ago although he is one of the highest priced ring men in the country, and is always in demand. he donated his services for the benefit of the Urban League's Fresh-air camp for needy colored kiddies boxing a hard opponent on the card of exhibition staged at this same park. By this means he helped to raise a Still was a favorite here two years ago. He fought many main events for Curtis at the Main Street Club but couldn't break in at the larger arenas. But when he went East New York fans went wild over his slam bang style and he made more money in one fight at the Garden with Babe McGogary than he did in a year here. Now he is coming back with hopes of having better financial luck here. If he stops Colima, and that is Still's ambition. The Oklahoma cow boy expects to be ready for big money in this section. COLIMA WELL LIKED Colima is well liked by the colored fans for many reasons. He is always friendly, and courteous with both fighters and fans showing that his ten years of success and popularity have never turned his head. Over at the old Vernon Arena he boxed several colored opponents during his career, among them Sailor Larry, and was always as clean a sportsman with them, as with his rivals of other races. For that reason and the fact that he is a fighter who fights they always follow him to his battles. A little over a year ago although he is one of the highest priced ring men in the country, and is always in demand. he donated his services for the benefit of the Urban League's Freshair camp for needy colored kiddies boxing a hard opponent on the card of exhibition staged at this same park. By this means she helped to raise a goodly sum that was very badly needed, for the camp expenses. COLORED HEAVIES ASKED Neil Clisby, Mack House, and other top notch heavies were asked to fill a place on the card as a double main event by promoter Carlo Curtis who has done more to develop, colored fighters than any other gym owner in the city. Most of the Race boys' in the game trained at his Main St. Gym and he accords them the best of treatment besides using them on the Saturday night bills practically every week. Morrie Cohen already had an option on Mack's services for Thursday last, so he could not appear and Neil Clisby's manager could not be reached in time, so these two colored stars will have to appear at the next out-door show which may appear in the near future. BENNY MILLER Benny Miller, Jewish prospect, who has been winning his fights by the knockout route lately, will face Rudy Mendez in the semiwindup of eight EMANUEL AND MALONEY, CAMPBELL AND KENNEDY ON SAME CARD With two matches on the same night when local fans expected to pay top prices to see one at the time. Jack Doyle and the Olympic have scored again, Maloney and Emanuel will meet May 12 at Wrigley Field. As a double edge to the program-Frankie Campbell and Les Kennedy will fight on the same card in a double main event. Prices will be $1 to $5. The ball park will be set up to hold a capacity of around 75.000. The situation grew out of a squabble between the Emanuels and the Olympic over the scale of prices that caused Charley Emanuel to cancel original plans which caled for him to guarantee Maloney $7500. BOUT WAS QËF Following the cancellation of last Tuesday night's heavyweight fight—which happened late Thursday—all principals involved were in a mood to co-operate as they were gathered at the local boxing commission offices, Frank Moran. Kennedy and Campbell were already booked to meet in the Olympic on May 13, but Matchmaker Hayden Wadhams assured Doyle that he felt they would team up with Armand and Jimmy in the all-star show. It well be Doyle's first open air show ior 1930. Maloney had to call off a show in Boston with Al Friedman for the first week in May in order to remain over from his original booking with Emanuel in the Olympic Tuesday night. ANDY MARTIN NEXT Andy Martin. New England featherweight joined the fisticock colony here yesterday. He is one of Dan Cardell's troop. Martin may be featured at the Olympic May 6. He has beaten Bushy Grahant and other classy easterners. HUDKINS AND SHADE MAY 20 Ace Hudkins, the biggest drawing card in the game outside of Dempsey and recognized as the "most sensational fighter in the whole wide world will let Dave Shade have that date he BROOKLYN claims to crave at the Olympic on May 20th. Shade claims that the kitty has been ducking him but that old tough Nebraska boy never ducks anyone—not even heavyweights. This bout ought to even make the radio announcer leave his "Mike" and with both these tough hard hitting rivals attempting to stop each other the pack house it will draw will get their moneys worth. Shade recently fought a good draw with Joe Anderson so he is a worthy foe for Ace. The scrap loving Hudkins boy has been resting and is in prime shape. rounds at 152 pounds. Sandy Garrison Casinove, another young sensation here, will box Russell Brooks six rounds or less at 165 pounds. The fours bring together Danny Robles and Kozue Takahashi, bantams, and Bobby Flores and James Thomas, 120-pounders. Thomas is a colored boy. Tickets are on sale at the Main St. Club and the public is urged to make reservations early. Prices of $1. $2, and $3 will prevail. Day after day fans, inquire at this office and over the phone "what has become of Baby Gans?" Only occasionally we see a small mention in the news clippings of N. Y. dailies both nothing in the local colored papers. Well Dear Friends and former pals, well wisters and fans of Baby Joe it is no fault of his. When local readers got all the news each issue about the "Young Master" activities in the east, Larney Lichenstein was living and he took care of his little star's correspondence. Larney was a smart thoughtful manager, and while he knew a fighter because of his training has little time to write yet he was sure the folks back home would feel slighted if they did not hear from him through this paper which was his greatest sponsor since he first left the foundry to become the country's greatest junior welter. Cherokee Tom Cox formerly co-manager is since Larney's death sole manager but for some reason, never finds time to write or send clippings of Babe as Larney did even though Larney was a white man. "Babe" has been laying off from the game recently doctoring his injured arm, according to reports. Hearing from Tom of course does not matter but local fans still love Gans, the boy they used to pack Vernon and the Olympic to see. About Tom they have begun to whisper "ingratitude." Get Out Your Bait-Can Such chronic fishermen as Dr. Harris and Dr. Baumann are happy now that trout season is on. Both the bass and trout seasons open Thursday morning.
