Gives City Most Modern Clock On Pacific Coast VOLUME 43 For the Leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed—Isa. 9:16. WHAT ABOUT LEADER- SHIP? LEAD US by way of clean, unselfish politics, Mr. Negro Leader, if you please. We, the Negroes of the United States are an oppressed and subjected national minority and as such have been the subject for exploitation by whites and super-exploitation by Negro leaders, who appear on the surface unselfish exponents of the constitutional rights for the group, but who in reality are merely exponents of their own personal, selfish desires. In the early history of this country when what is now the United States was peopled by Indians, these early Americans, it is said, were divided into tribes and each tribe was headed by a leader (chief). The Pilgrims who sought freedom from religious persecution were led forth on that first Mayflower voyage to the snow-capped hills of Plymouth by Miles Standish—George Washington gave up his slaves to become father of the thought that, "Taxation without representation was tyranny"—Frederick Douglass, the bronze knight of the pre-Civil War period stepped over traditional social barriers and demonstrated that all men were created equal by taking on to himself as wife a woman classified as white, because of the color of her skin—Abraham Lincoln, the man of modesty, who it is said found his greatest comfort in reading the book of Job, stands out in a single figure against a background of upheaval in thought and action concerning the institution of slavery, defied public opinion by placing himself at the head of that school of thought that stood for the abolition of slavery. LOCAL LEADERSHIP In this land of flowers and sunshine—Los Angeles, this portion of that Empire of romantic thrill called the Golden West, where to date we have produced only minor prophets, let's do less fighting about who is and who isn't leader; for leaders are not made according to their own volition, God appoints, man disappoints. True leadership ordained by the Father takes its place naturally, but that sort of leadership which is the result of a designing body of individuals which would create a servant to carry out its wishes is but short lived and full of corruption. Machine politics have corrupted the high standard of citizenship in our State and is seeking to destroy the very foundation upon which this nation was built. THE NEGRO'S OPPORTUNITY The Negroes of this Nation have a glorious opportunity just now if they would concentrate in thought upon a Gideon, who would come forth from the bulrushes of obscurity and lead us out of a state of super-prejudice and petty jealousies, one towards the other, and as a great army having paid the price for freedom, march up to the very gates of the Nation and demand that lynching, race proscription and jim-crowism cease. THE HOOVER ADMINISTRATION UNDER THE HOOVER administration we are certainly getting stones for bread. Tuesday, September 9th, some of the leading metropolitan daily papers of this city again came forth blasting the bugle in glaring headlines that another lynching had taken place. They said that while Sheriff Poppell of Darien, Ga., turned aside the mob intent upon lynching, entered the town jail and shot to death George Grant, who resembled one of the Negroes accused of participating in the murder of Police Chief Robert L. Freeman and injuring two other white men in a gun battle. The reputable newspapers of this nation should in behalf of their interest in decent government cease from playing up lynchings on the front pages of their papers, especially when they are aware of the fact that the information sent out by the National Associated Press hook-up does not give true facts in these cases. ADMISSION DAY THE FEATURE of the Admission Day program that interests most of those Americans of African descent, who form an integral part of the citizenship of this State is the fact that eighty years ago California was admitted as a Free State. And those who live and thrive on the prosperity Western Baptist Association In One Day Session for Doing Things, Tuesday, Sept. 16, Beth Eden Baptist Church Western Baptist Association In One Day Session for Doing Things, Tuesday, Sept. 16, Beth Eden Baptist Church In keeping with his promise of action and putting the Western Baptist Association into the battle line of progress, the first call is on for action when Rev.

Recess (Continued On Page Three) Held for Robbery of 9th and Central Gasoline Station Run down by detectives and nabbed at 1447 East 23rd Street, and said to have been positively identified by the victim, Robert Hood and Dick Lewis are being held in jail with a charge of robbery against them. Max Firetag, out for a good time, intrusted the pair, with $20 to get him some whisky a girl and bring back some change. After a reasonable wait Firetag notified the police who found them at the above address. Owing to the circumstance, matters would not have gone so hard with the pair but it was discovered that Hood answered the description of the man who held up the oil station at 9th and Central recently. Detectives are making further investigation as to the suspects past activities. Impersonates Officer; Jailed (By: A. N. P.) New Orleans, La., Sept. 3. —Othello Stewart was sentenced to a year and a day in Atlanta Federal Prison, when he appeared before United States Judge Wayne G. Borah and pleaded guilty to charges of impersonating a prohibition undercover agent. of this State, if they are true Americans, whether of Asiatic or African descent can but hope that the principles of government of this State will ever rest on a foundation that stands for liberty and freedom for all. LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 12. 1930 (By: A. N. P. Petersburg, Va., Sept. 3.—It was not in the cards for William Hardaway to escape the law Tuesday night, in spite of his strenuous efforts. Hardaway was wanted on a burglary charge and was being pursued by Officer McGee. The officer fell over a pile of bricks in the chase and his gun was discharged. It was believed that Hardaway had escaped until he turned up at a local hospital with a bullet in his leg. While the officer was not firing intentionally at the freeing man, the bullet was evidently addressed to him and was delivered. CADDIS SERIOUSLY INJURED (Bv: A. N. P.) New Orleans, La, Sent. 3—Struck by a golf ball as it deflected on the Audubon Park links, Jack P. Smith, 17-year-old caddle, was taken to Charity Hospital in a serious condition with a possible fracture of the skull where it is said he will die. Smith walked to the clubhouse unaided and there fell unconscious. No action was taken against the golfer who drove the ball. HE KNOWS NOTHING (By: A. N. P.) Monroe, La., Sept. 3. —Robert Jones, a youth who was arrested as a suspect, should be a member of the "know nothing club" according to Chief of Detectives L. V. Tarver. "Where have you been sleeping?" queried Tanwer. "I don't know, except in box cars." Where is your home?" "Birmingham." "Right in the city?" "No, sir, bout four, miles out in the country." "Know any white people there?" "No, sir." "Do they have street cars in Birmingham?" "I don't know." "How have you been making a living since you've been here?" "Shootin' crabs and playing pool." Where did you learn to shoot pool?" "At home." Who owned the pool tables?" "I don't know." "Where did you get that diamond stickpin and silk under wear?" "At home." "Yes, but who gave them to you?" "I don't remember." In view of the evident fact that Jones is concealing his past, Mr. Tarver is conducting a thorough investigation of the story. When Jones was arrested he had in his possession an expensive diamond stockpin but otherwise was penniless. He had obstinately refused to disclose the origin of the pin. Tailors Accept Boston Invitation (Br: A. N. P.) Boston, Mass., Sept. 3.—Mayor Jas. M. Curley extended an invitation to the National Association of Negro Tailors, Designers, and Dressmakers to hold their 1931 Convention in Boston, which invitation was accepted by the organization in their annual meeting recently held in Richmond, Virginia. At this last session Coney Wheaton of Richmond was elected president of the Tailors over B. Harrison Clarke of New York, who had been in the office for five years. INDUSTRIAL COUNCIL IN FEATURE PRO- GRAM SUNDAY At its regular meeting Sunday afternoon the Industrial Council will present a most interesting program containing several special features. Mr. L. B. Granger, secretary of the Urban League will be one of the speakers. The program is in charge of Mrs. Elizabeth Martinez and no person interested in the economic development of our group can afford to miss it. The meeting is being held at Beth Eden Baptist Church, 27th & Paloma, 3 p. m. "Robbery Doesn't Pay" "Robbery doesn't pay". At least Louis Uribe, 1345 East 28th St. said so. Urbe attempted to rob Alfred Godlock who resented such rude manners; a fight ensued. Uribe was cut and later identified by Godlock; arrested, jailed and held by the armed authorities. Negroes Entering Cuba Held Up By Officials (By A. N. P.) Havana, Cuba, Sept. 10.—Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, famous woman leader of the United States, and President R. P. Sims, of Bluefield. Institute, with members of their families, were held back and annoyed when they were to embark at Havana. The Cuban officials later claimed that they acted under suggested wishes of the United States government officials in harassing and discouraging Negroes from coming to Cuba. Strangely enough, this annoyance and harassing does not discriminate between those who go seeking work, as some from Jamaica, and those traveling as tourists and educators, like Dr. Sims and his daughter and Mrs. Bethune and her grandson, who came as a party from Florida. President Sims and his daughter, being lighter of skin, were about to be passed by the official, while Mrs. Bethune, being planily Negro, was being held up. But they made it known that they were all of the same party, and refused to be separated. The firm stand of Mrs. Bethune, and the intervention of a colored family in Cuba, saved the day. But the officer, to save his face, held back their return tickets, for which they had to call later. The Cubans say it is the Americans; the Americans, when you tackle them about it out of the hearing of Cubans, say it is the Cuban government. The Negroes believe the thing inspired by Americans. They had even refused to sell the Sims and Bethunes round trip tickets from Miami, Fla., to Havana,—saying it was "orders," and that they were not to "encourage Negroes to go to Cuba." Four days later than the arrival of the Sims-Bethune party, William Pickens was to arrive on the Morro Castle, of the Ward Line, from New York. Mr. Pickens thinks he would have met similar treatment, and would have been threatened with being sent to Tiscornia, the Cuban "Ellis Island," if the club Atenas had not heard of his coming and made representations to the Cuban government to prevent any insult or inconvenience being put upon him. The President of the club, Senor Cornelio Elizade y Lima; and the Secretary, Senor Ramon Valdes, had made representation directly to the Cuban government and secured the written card of the Commissioner of Immigration that Mr. Pickens would be treated without discrimination upon his arrival. Senor Belisario Hereaux, member of the club, and son of a president of Santo Domingo, came in person to the pier to see that nothing went wrong with their assurances from the government officials of Cuba. Mr. Pickens landed ignorant of what had threatened him and of the action to ADOLPH SIEROTY OF EASTERN OUTFITTING INSTALLS TELECHRON TIMEKEEPER High up above the height-limit, on the tower of the new Eastern Columbia Building, Broadway, corner Ninth street, may be seen the largest clock in Los Angeles. And take the word of none other than Franz A. Fetch of the General Electric Supply Company, suppliers of this famous Telechron timekeeping mechanism, it will be the most accurate timekeeper on the Pacific Coast. "It will soon become the accurate instrument by which thousands in the teeming downtown traffic will set their watches as they hurry along their various ways," said Mr. Fetch. "This is a pacemaker in modern retail public service and one that should receive a vote of thanks from merchants in the immediate neighborhood. "It is a giant in size, easily seen from a distance, day or night, and we predict that it will soon become known as "The Adolph Sieroty Timekeeper of Los Angeles." or eleven feet in length.

Shoots White Sweet-heart; Kills Self (By A. N. P.) Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 10.—A night "which was made for love" and intended for that purpose had a tragic ending when Robert Smith shot and perhaps fatally wounded his white sweetheart, Inez Gest, and killed himself in a rooming house here Saturday night. Governor Stanton of Chicago (By A. N. P.) Chicago, Sept. 10. and Leonard Shadlow, Friday morning for the Martin French, specie the Franklin Trust and will have thirty more through a stay of ex- Mrs. Ben Shippey, the landlady, told the officers that the couple had rented the room about midnight and that she had retired when she heard several shots. She first thought that the explosion was an automobile backfiring and let it go at that. Some hours later she heard the groans of a woman and investigated. Her investigation led her to the room of the man and woman who had registered last and upon forcing her way into the room, found the woman lying on the bed seriously wounded and a few feet away the lifeless body of her companion. Two theories have been advanced as probable causes of the tragedy, the first being that it was a death-pact entered into by the principals and the other that Smith killed the woman in a fit of anger. The woman is not expected to live. In Minor Accident Lincoln Fearonce, 1157 E. 52nd St. sustained an injury on his right foot when his daughter, Rosalee, backed his car against him at Pico and Central, Thursday morning.

All preparations had been completed for the execution of the two who with Leon Brown were convicted of killing the policeman when the bank was held up sometime ago and there was great rejoicing when they were apprised of the governor's decision. Attorneys for the doomed men petitioned the governor Thursday afternoon when the Illinois Supreme Court refused to grant a writ of supersedeas. The reprieve was granted in order to give the condemned men a chance to file an appeal following a recent jury verdict declaring them sane. Leon Brown, represented by Attorney R. E. Westbrook, is scheduled to go to trial on Monday to determine whether he is insane or not. BREAKS GIRL'S JAW WITH FIST Following a warrant sworn out against him for assault and battery officers are searching for Oliver Ranton 1407 1-2 East 53rd street who a week ago broke the jaw of Bertie Smith of Watts, with his fist. Bertie known to her friends as "Tot" has gone to friend's house with a man named Russel and her pal Mozelle Taylor. Allegedly jealous and intoxicated, Ranton became incensed when she begin talking to Russel and without warning struck her a terrific blow on the left side of the face. She was taken to General Hospital where the fractured bone was set, and she is on the rode to recovery. N. A. A. C. P. MEETS SUNDAY The local branch of the N. A. A. C.

George was arrested for his unfriendly conduct and John sincefely wishes that he will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Citizens Rally to Curtis B. Mosby in Apex Nite Club Case Members of our group have often times been accused of failing to support those of our race when help was most needed, in fact many of our white brethren have considered this one of our great weaknesses, but we are all together in our determination to back-up Curtis B. Mosby, in the Apex Nite club case, filed in the U. S. District Court, August 23rd, of this year, and a solid front will be presented when the case is called for trial. Many of our most prominent ministers of the gospel; club and lodge leaders; business and professional men and women and citizens in general, numbering into the thousands, have signified their willingness to go the limit in upholding the hands and reputation of this substantial business man who is not only an employer of men and women of our race but who furnishes a brand of entertainment which cannot be equaled for cleanliness. We know Curtis B. Mosby—thousands of our citizens are regular patrons of his Apex Nite club. Our men are proud to take their wives there for an evening's entertainment; men and women of our race take their children there for they know the club is conducted along proper lines. Patrons are not there to pick up some lowtype associate, but to enjoy the dancing, the good food and the WORLD'S GREATEST COLORED FLOOR SHOW. At the Apex you do not see MEN AND WOMEN moving from one table to another trying to pick up some MAN here or some WOMAN there—you associate with your own party and women are never admitted without escorts. Each week, some club, lodge or church organization holds a benefit at this popular Nite club—husbands, wives, sweethearts, grpwn children, preachers, business men and professional men and women are there and all for the purpose of enjoying themselves in a place of which they can be proud. When we go to the Apex we are not ashamed, but can look our fellow citizen in the eye the next morning and say—"Gee, but we had a real evening last night, we went to the Apex." Mr. Mosby does everything in his power to uphold the 18th Amendment; he does not keep nor sell intoxicating liquor neither does he allow his employees to sell it—he in every way discourages its use and does it seem reasonable to think that a man of his type would jeopardize an investment running into thousands of dollars and a reputation built up after years of hard labor by wilfully, on knowingly violating the law?

Hope Street, Los Angeles San Franciscooo Fresno San Diego Oakland Long Beach Portland Seattle Hunt Process Protects Los Angeles Paving More than 50,000,000 square feet of "Hunt Process" cured concrete pavements are giving Los Angeles taxpayers the utmost in motoring safety and pleasure. "Hunt process," the modern dependable method of curing concrete pavements is a Los Angeles development. It is only natural that this better method of curing should be the choice of the taxpayers and pavement builders in the city in which the method originated. But the outstanding qualities have attracted the attention of engineers in every state of the Union and in every foreign country, with the result that this method is now being used in practically every state and in many foreign countries. For the motorist, Hunt Process cured concrete pavements mean safety. The granular, non-skid surface of the concrete is perfectly preserved when this method is used. The Hunt Process forms a tough, air-proof and waterproof film over the concrete which conforms absolutely to the surface left by the finisher. After several years of traffic, the original finishing marks are still plainly visible. The dark, kill-glare color is a distinct benefit to the motorist. For the taxpayer, the use of the Hunt Process means CONFIDENCE. He, personally, has driven over mile after mile of Hunt Process-cured streets. He has seen how they stand up under the most concentrated traffic. On heavy traffic boulevard or quiet residential street, these pavements spell safety to traffic and conservation of paving investment. The Hunt Process method is used at costs actually lower than the older, less dependable methods of curing. It brings the taxpayer relief from the dust and mud nuisance and gives him assurance that the strength built itno the concrete is retained in the finished highway. The taxpayer has a right to demand those construction methods and materials which will assure him of the greatest possible benefits at costs which will make his investment in improved streets return worthwhile dividends. The Hunt Process has proved its ability to do this on more Your Trade Barometer We are now entering into a period of business life of our community in which a rising barometer notes a steady advance along all avenues of business.

"The traffic line marking now under way on Wilshire Boulevard will do more to promote safety to motorists than any other expedient that could be adopted," said R. T. Dorsey, recently appointed Traffic Engineer for the City of Los Angeles today. "Wilshire Boulevard carries the enviable reputation of being the world's busiest thoroughfare and the promotion of safety on this boulevard is of utmost importance. Any motorist who has ever driven over a highway on which the roadway is marked out into traffic lanes will readily appreciate the value of traffic lane marking from the standpoint of safety and comfort in driving. The traffic lanes bring about a better distribution of traffic, permit a higher average speed, reduce spurts of speed and side driving, and most important of all, they reduce driving hazards tremendously. In addition, we estimate that we can increase the traffic carrying capacity of Wilshire Boulevard up to 25 per cent through the use of these markings. "We are now painting a twelve inch center line and a six inch guide line along each side along the entire distance of Wilshire Boulevard from Park View Avenue to the eastern limits of Beverly Hills and then from the western limits of Beverly Hills to Soldiers Home. It is anticipated that Beverly Hills will continue the marking through that city. In addition similar markings are now being painted on Figueroa Street from Washington Avenue south to the city limits. "New developments in methods of application of traffic lacquers, perfected by McEVERLAST, Inc., Los Angeles manufacturers, have reduced the cost of this work to a point where it is negligible compared to the benefits derived. Under the old hand painting methods the cost of painting traffic lines would not permit us to do much, but with the greatly reduced cost of mechanical operation, the cost is brought down to a point where a small appropriation will permit a worthwhile program. This work, in conjunction with a safety campaign on the part of the motor patrol will do much to decrease the accident rate. "Los Angeles is the first city to benefit from these developments and other cities in the United States will be watching our work with a great deal if interest."

Primary results gave the Traeger job seekers quite a scare for it was the common belief that Mr. Traeger was elected before the race began. When the race was finished and they crossed the tape neck and neck, it started a lot of the gang to thinking just how the thing would come out in the finals. The dope reads like this: Work for Traeger, if he is elected hit him for a job; work for Plummer, if he is elected do the same thing. Both running neck and neck, but both cannot be elected. You can't work for both and get by with it, so throw your coin up and be a man and take your chance. THE RAILROAD CLATTER congratulates the following Pullman Porters and Santa Fe Red Cups on the anniversary of their birth, which comes during the month: Mr. J. Fower, Santa Fe; H. H. McCraven and C. Jones, Pullman Porters. Birthstone, Sapphire. W. B. HOLLAND IN AUTO WRECK Popular Pullman Porter and Guest Narrowly Escape Death Mr. W. B. Holland, well known Pullman Porter of Los Angeles District and three guests who were riding with him at the time, narrowly escaped death last week when another machine struck his car with terrific force knocking it for a distance of at least twenty feet and all but turned it over. Mr. Holland was returning from the East Side driving south on Griffith Ave., and as he reached the intersection at Griffith and Adams, a machine traveling at a terrific pace East on Adams, suddenly stuck him full force near the center of his car. One of the occupants in Mr. Holland's machine was severely injured, but refused to be taken to the receiving hospital when ambulances arrived on the scene; other occupants all of whom reside on the West Side were badly shaken up and suffered with nervous shock. Mr. Holland's skillful driving was all that saved his machine from being completely demolished and its occupants killed outright. REFUSAL OF PASSES .TO .PULL MAN PORTERS TRICK OF A CHILD A few years ago a bulletin was posted to the effect that all Pulliman Porters who had operated on any certain road for a period of one year on more were entitled to passes over certain territory which the road covered. All the porter had to do was to put in a request to his Superintendent in writing or verbally and the office in turn would give him a blank to fill out, which in a few days would bring him a pass to the point he wished to travel or to the point his wife wish to travel as the case might be. This privilege was granted to the porters by the railroads themselves in recognition of the favorable service that the porters who had been operating on their roads rendered. It cost the Pullman Company not one red cent. It was the railroad's desire that the porters be furnished these passes whenever they were entitled to them. During my late period of service with the Pullman Company under the direct supervision of Mr. O. W. Snoddy, present Superintendent, I have heard of many porters who had rendered faithful service both to the Pullman Company and the various railroads which they served fatally refused a pass for themselves or wives on the filmsy excuse that they were not loyal. This was done by an official holding a position that is supposed to be far above petty issues of this nature. It is nothing more or less than a rank form of intimidation over a group of the most exploited workers in the United States. Its sole purpose is to shatter the faith of the Pullman Porter in his only salvation—The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car, Porters. In a public statement issued recently the Pulman Company went on record as saying that they had never discriminated against the porter who was a member of the Brotherhood. I will leave that to you. In this district porters who refused to vote for the company plan were refused a pass when requested by them through the channels the railroads had provided. Porters who had voted for the Company Plan had no difficulty whatever in securing a pass when they put in a request for it. What do you call that? The issue is of such a petty nature, that one would not think that an official who is supposed to be a big man would stoop to such a contemptible trick as this, nevertheless this is what is going on in this district, and has been going on ever since the present Superintendent took charge. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened 847 Central Avenue broadcasting that famous little bail from the Watts Broadcasting station entitled the Oil Well Blues. And would you please inform me if the porters on line 28 have got their extra relief yet? They should have it by now. Safe in the Arms of Jesus—J. T. Ambrose, H. O. Philips and O. Soares. I heard that the reason Fuzzy Forsythe had his teeth pulled was so he couldn't bite the rest of the Lark crew in the back. Johnny Moore is considered bite proof. Derby Hat Davis has returned from a trip to New York and other parts of the world. He purchased two dozen derby hats while back East. So far as the Pullman Company personally is concerned, it is a well-known fact that they will not grant a porter a pullman pass for a berth; and still they are not satisfied with this meanness, and go further by denying you the rights that the railroads have granted you to advance their own selfish cause of destroying the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. Well, regardless of the many petty tricks they are good at playing, they will never, during Mr. Hungerfoot's time on earth nor during Mr. Snoddy's time on earth, live to witness the day when the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters shall cease fighting for a living wage and better working condition for the Pullman Porters. Join the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and be a man among men. D. C. COLEMAN ILL IN MONROVIA D. C. Coleman, a painter in the yards for the Pullman Company, not by his own choice, but by the orders of the Superintendent, is ill at his home in Monrovia. Mr. Coleman is well liked by all porters in this district and it is hoped that porters who have machines will drive out to Monrovia and see Coleman at their first chance. The time for anybody to show their friendship is when a per son is sick. It is sincerely hoped that Mr. Coleman will soon be able to go back on the job. W. W. Bargefield, better known as King of the extra board took the last car to be operated from Los Angeles to Salt Lake by the Los Angeles district. Bargefield has been in this district for over seven years and has never held a regular line. He likes to be a free lance and roam the country, and is a porter who freely and cheerfully takes the bitter with the T. TAFT MOVES FROM WRITER'S HOME. This is to notify all stool-pigeon who have been no interested in the residence of Mr. T. Taft at the writer's home that he is no longer at my home, but has moved to the East Side. When the stool-pigeons of the Los Angeles District found out that Mr. Taft was residing with the writer, they lost no time in putting out the report that if he did not move he would lose his job, fording Mr. Taft to seek residence elsewhere. This manner will be handled in the proper will have the pleasure of facing a judge. In the meantime 2190 W. 30th street will still continue to be 2190 W. 30th street as it was before Mr. Taft took up his residence there. J. H. HOLDEN BUMPS KING JOHNSON Ten gallon hat Holden, called the most easily satisfied porter in the Los Angeles District, went on the rampage and picked out King Johnson whom he proceeded to bump higher than the proverbial kite. As I am told, Mr. Johnson has not landed on earth yet and was found wandering around in a dazed condition looking for a line. EXTRA BOARD IS REPORTED DEAD Porters who look to a living from the extra board, report that the pickings are slim, and that they find it is a rather hard matter to make a living. If a man gets out once a week he is considered lucky; that is, except the extra board pets, they can get out whenever they report. RED CAPS CART INJURES MRS BERTRAM TUCKER-TAKEN TO HOSPITAL Mrs. Bertram Tucker, wife of Bertram Tucker, former bank clerk at the Security Trust and Sivings Bank, was severely injured last week, while seeing some friends off from the Southern Pacific Depok. Mrs. Tucker was knocked to the ground by a Red Cap's cart used for carrying hand bags as she stood on the platform. An engine rounding a curve in the pot struck the cart which was standing too close to the track. The impact drove the cart into Mrs. Tucker causing her to be severely injured. She was taken to the hospital in an ambulance, where she received medical attention. PULLMAN HOT SHOTS I wonder whether H. B. Wilson has picked any winners yet?

Before an enthusiastic crowd of cheering tennis fans, Gerald Norman, Jr., sensational star of the Flushing Tennis club, triumphed over Ted Hooks, veteran of the Brooklyn Net club, on Monday afternoon in a tournament heft on the Utopian Courts in Brooklyn, for a leg on the Carrington Bros. trophy. This match was bristling with excitement and Hooks went down, not because he did not play a fine game, but simply because he met a superior player when he hooked up against young Norman, who in the national championship singles held a few days ago in Indianapolis, defeated Edgar Brown in the third round only to succumb to Ed Turner, after beating him in one of three sets. Norman played a remarkable match and won over his aggressive opponent because of his blinding speed, one of the essential attributes of the championship player in this generation, combined with a careful discernment in surveying the field for placements which invariably were successful. He also exhibited some excellent strokes when they were needed, especially the overhand, which counted for a score each time it was unleashed. Hooks, on the other hand, won his won to the final by eliminating in convincing style those who took the racket against him; Albert Smith in the second round, 6-2, 6-1; Ulric Haynes in the third, 6-0, 6-0; Darnley Howard in the fourth, 6-1, 6-2, and Frederick Lofton in the fifth, 6-4, 6-3. Norman defatd Rufus Moe in the second, 6-0, 6-0. Harold LeSeane in the third, 6-2, 6-0. P. Van Houten in the fourth, 7-5, 6-3; Kenneth Bailey in the fifth, 7-5, 8-6 and the championship from Ted Hooks, 6-0, 6-2, 6-2. Two of the contestants that deserve mention for the creditable manner in which they played are Kenneth Bailey and Frederick Lofton, the former from the Merrick Tennis club and the latter from the Students' Literary and Debating League. These two players eliminated a strong field to reach the fifth round only to go down to the onslaughts of Norman Hooks. Another feature of the tournament was the junior singles played for a cup donated by Mrs. Daisy C. Reed of Corona, L. L. This event was won by Harold Bundick, Jr., who defeated Frank Turner, Jr., in the finals with a score of 6.4, 1.5, 6.1. The youngsters played an excellent match and both give promise of real tennis stars. This affair, which was an innovation in the tennis annals of Brooklyn and Long Island, was made possible by a trophy put up by the Carrington Bros., real estate brokers, and the co-operation which it received from members of the Utopian Tennis club, who donated their courts for the occasion. The response which this initial tournament received bespeaks a great future for tennis in this section of the country. It brought together representatives from eight clubs: Brooklyn Tennis and Country, Utopia, Brooklyn Net, Merrick, Flushing, Students' Literary and Debating, Corona and Eureka, and the participants were 55 in number. After the tournament was over Eugene Knickle Jones, an officer of the American Tennis Association, complimented the players for their supreme exhibition and presented the Reed cup to Bradick, Jr., and the Carrington trophy to Morman, Jr., who will hold same until the next tournament takes place. Bertram Baken, vice-president and chairman of the Board of Directors of the Utopian tennis club; Gerald Norman, Sr., and William P. Carrington were the officials throughout the matches and they performed their duties in a very creditable manner. The contestants were: Todd Hooke, Albert Smith, Leonard Atherly, Ulrich Haynes, Darnley Howard, Frank Turner, Reginald Phipps, Kenneth Hunter, W. R. R. Granger, W. H. Edwards, Sidney Hardy, Hubert Brown, L. P. Hinton, T. Roy Peyton, Charles Calendar, Hinton DeHaney, Fred Lotton, Curtison Nurse, B.

Chincinnati, Ohio, Sept. 10—During the 64th annual encampment of the G. A. R., which was held in Cincinnati, Ohio, August 26 to 31, the Negro Civic Welfare Association of which J. M. Ragging in the executive secretary, endeavored to get the G. A. R., to go on record as opposed to lynching and mob violence. After a conference with Col. Edwin J. Foster, the Commander-in-Chief of the G. A. R., a resolution was proposed and presented to Judge Willett, secretary of the Committee on Resolutions. Although there were two colored men serving on this committee the resolution was tabled. On the last day of the Convention a duplicate resolution was prepared and read before the organization; it was also tabled. The survivors of the Grand Army who fought for the freedom of the Negro refused to put themselves on record as opposed to the injustice of lynching and mob murder.

The special advertising page carried by the California Eagle during its last several issues is conclusive proof of this fact, just as it is a reminder to Negro consumers that in their own pocketbooks they hold the key to their economic freedom. The Eagle set aside its special ad vertising page in an effort to call attention to the economic needs of the colored population of Los Angeles and to enlist the support of the business firms of the city. The page is headlined, "Firms Who Welcome Your Patronage," and carries a sub-title, "Don't Spend Your Money Where You Can't Work." In the issue of August 15th, 51 business firms of the city advertised on this page, and thus put themselves on record as having a definite interest in the economic progress of the colored buyers of Los Angeles. In compiling this list of advertisers, the Eagle has performed a valuable service to the Negro group, for it has focussed the attention of the Negro buyer on those business concerns which profit from his trade, and who should be interested in helping him to find work. Now that the Eagle has given us the list, it is up to the business owners to decide which these firms have actually made and to see just what they are doing to keep and improve the trade which they claim to "welcome." This is what the Los Angeles Urban League has tried to do in a two-weeks' survey of the 51 firms referred to above. A representative of the League visited practically every firm in the list and talked with the employer or employment manager, telling him frankly that the League was seeking to discover the exact extent to which his firm encourages colored patronage by giving work to Negroes. Some of the questions asked were as follows: 1. Do you employ Negro help? How many? In what capacity? 2. If you employ no Negroes, why not? 3. Would you hire a competent Negro who applied for work? 4. If you use no Negro help, what does your advertisement mean? In these interviews, the Urban League sought to impress the employer with this point of view: a business man who sells thousands of dollars worth of merchandise annually to colorado customers and who employs dozens of workers, yet who refuses to give jobs to any of his Negro customers, certainly cannot honestly claim to appreciate the trade of the Negro public. In fact, he is not even aware of the small deal, making money out of the Negro community and leaving nothing in its place. When this acid test was applied, the Urban League worker found that most of the employers interviewed failed to qualify as really interested in the welfare of the colored buyer. No attempt was made to interview those business concerns too small or too technical to be reasonably expected to engage help outside of the family or owners. From the remaining 32 who were reached, however, enough information was gained to make it very clear that in the majority of cases the interest of these business firms in the economic welfare of their Negro buyers ceases when Negro dollars come into the store or shop. Of these 32 firms, only 13 employ any Negro help at all, and only two of these users are considerable members. The Whiting Mead Company has 20 colored laborers on the pay roll, and Walker's Fifth Street Store uses 40 colored porters, maids, elevator operators, and messengers. The other eleven firms use from one to three or four Negroes, mostly doing the same kind of work as listed above. The remaining 19 firms employ no Negroes at all, and in only four of these places have Negroes ever worked. The employers' reasons for this discrimination are varied. In one-firm the manager said that he did not think he could trust Negroes with large orders. Another declared that his white help would be disasatisfied if he hired a colored worker. The climax was reached, however, with the Marvel Carburetor Sales and Service Company, whose manager, a Mr. Simon, stated that he never would have advertised that he knew that he "bothered" he belonged to a colored people running in looking for jobs." He further declared that he would throw out of his office anyone who bothered him too much about it. His interviewer was a lady. To sum up, out of 4473 employees in these 32 concerns, only 89 Negroes are employed. And this in spite of the fact that several of the business concerns depend almost entirely upon their Negro customers for support. If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened CUBAN CURIOSITIES BY WILLIAM PICKENS (For the Associated Negro Press) They can buy liquors on about every corner in Havana, and in the middle of the block; but I have not yet seen a drunk Cuban. There is gambling all sorts; a lottery is run by the government, so that gambling is a sanctioned thing by authority. On the Monto Castle, as we came down from Havana, the Americans gambled, especially on Sunday, there was a "ship's pool," a sort of bet the speed for a day, in which a few lucky persons got something and the ship officials got the big pile. On English ships on the Atlantic, there is a "religious service" and preaching on Sunday; the Americans, en route to Cuba, promoted all sorts of gambling on Sunday. But since both of their try, to rob other races, dear reader, you can just take your choice; praying British hypocrites or "crap-shooting American barbarians. In Cuba, where the native hair is naturally black and beautiful, you will find a horde of "synthetic blondes." People always want what they have not: in the United States, where are many blacks, some of them are trying to be white; while in Northern Germany, where everybody is blonde, when a black man comes along, he is the woman all the place. Even the women all the place wish that they could have the beautiful kinky hair of that attractive black man. In America, full dress is black; in Cuba, be really dressed up is to be all in white, snow-white. In America, it is "women first"; in Cuba, the men are all introduced first in polite dress; then the women are introduced; even when the ice cream is passed around, the men are served first—But this is not "man's paradise"; the women have a way When a member of the Cuban Congress is being introduced to you, the one making the introduction may say: "He is a celebrated poet; he won first prize in our poetry contest." Think of a congressman being recommended to us in New York on his poetic proclivities! Wouldn't that _be_ great campaign stuff in South Chicago? And all the while this Congressman is talking to you, right on the streets of Havana, he has taken off his hat and kept it off until you separate. He is very polite; he looks up a dinner date for you, right on the spot. But also, when the one who was introducing you, saw the congressman coming a distance, the sponsor said rather few times to you, who had your coat on you shortly, the heat: "Put on your coat! Put on your coat!"—In America, we would not worry if our lady friend met us with our coat on our arm, on a hot day—let alone a mere congressman. And only the men attend funerals in Cuba; women are deprived that pleasure. I suppose that funerals are a sort of "timelight" parade business, and the men hog the stage. I went to market in Havana a conglomeration of everything from socks and chemises to fish, pineaples, and alligator pears. There is a great square in the center of the market building, a patio; and, they say, this patio is filled with squealing pigs before Christmas and at other holiday seasons. The pig seems to be the "turkey" or "the national bird" here in Cuba. Imitating the great nation to the north, the "white" element in Cuba is belly-aching to make the island as "whitq man's country." And what you want badly, you will make-believe or even try to lie it into existence. So you read in Cuban literature that "the population is seventy per cent white and thirty per cent of other races." But you find those figures should be at least reversed: for the population seems to be eighty or ninety per cent colored, as "color" goes in the United States. In its desperate aim to be "white," Cuba counts every brown and yellow mixed-breed a white, and perhaps counts only the blacks and the Chinese as "colored." Every idea and classification depends upon what you want and what you need; if white people were as scarce in the U. S. A. as they are in Cuba and Jamaica, they would immediately enroll into their ranks the four or five million mullattoes and "high browns" of America. A list has been kept in the Urban Lease office giving the results of these interviews, and this is at the disposal of any individual or organization who uses it to use it for legitimate purposes. The information is given here, not to prove anything, but to indicate an individual firm, but in order to indicate a faulty attitude on the part of white business toward the Negro buying and wage-earning public. It is time that the Negro gave serious attention to correcting this faulty attitude. THE MUSICAL WEST Conducted By JOHN A. GRAY The annual convention of the National Association of Negro Musicians, which was held in Chicago, has come to a close. The numerous delegates have returned to their respective parts of the country with new ideas and with great inspiration for a season of better and bigger musical activities. Such gatherers are always beneficial, where there is a constructive program worked out. It is the quickest way to get a survey of the musical strength and activities of the country. The Negro will take a prominent part in the musical development of America and the sooner he realizes it the better. Positions that are now closed to him will be open as soon as he qualifies himself for them. He has been relying too long upon natural talent and the habit of "getting by." Diamonds in the rough are valuable polished ones are still more valuable and desired. He must also learn to appreciate and support his own if he expects the other fellow to do likewise. We are watching with interest the efforts of the Negro Orchestra of Baltimore, Maryland, that was or organized last winter. This orchestra is sponsored by Frederick R. Huber municipal director of music in Baltimore. The first program was given on the 25th of last May and consisted of semi-popular works from the masters. Most of the players are amateurs and all, including the director, Charles L. Harris serve without remuneration. This is a great step forward and the idea should be copied in other cities. The drawback lies in the fact that a white man is financing it. We say drawback because we are always expecting the other fellow to give us something instead of trying to get something of our own. Why cannot some of our wealthier people endow us with an or sponsor a movement such as this? The organization is working for the development of a real appreciation of fine music in our community. The people should support the effort and thereby pave the way for greater things in the future. Such an undertaking costs money even though the players and director bet no salary, musical scores, special instruments, hall rent, publicity and so on are necessary expenses. Let us hope for the success of the venture and try to copy the idea in our own city. The time is ripe for the forming of a choral society in Los Angeles. We have numbers of choruses that are trying to land movie contracts but none is organized for the development of choral singing to its fullest height. The love for music itself is not the stimulus behind these endeavors. Music is the Negro's greatest gift and he can never spend too much time and money in developing it. Choral works change of ideas and working plans are absolutely necessary in the growth of any movement and such gatherings as the recent convention in Chicago is a valuable aid in the diffusion of such information. (By A. N. P.) Louisville, Ky., Sept. 10—Three of the four buildings of Simmons University, and the property on which they stand were bought Saturday by the University of Louisville when Raymond A. Kent, president of the municipal institution presented W. K. Offutt, Moderator of the State Baptist Association, with a check for $100,000. The terms of the sale stipulated a payment of $100,000 cash and $15.00 for the optioned property within ten years. The sale will enable Simmons to pay off all indebtedness leaving a sufficient fund to conduct a theological institution. It is the plan of the purchasers to use the property as a university for higher education among our group. The new university will open about January 2, 1931. During his interval, the buildings will be remodeled and a faculty chosen. Dr. C. H. Parrish, former president of Simmons University, will serve as president. SELF INVITED "WEEK-END" GUEST JAILED BY HOUSEWIFE (BY A. N. P.) Richmond, Va., Sept. 10—When Mrs. John H. Guy, white, returned to her home Sunday night after a weekend in the country, she found Clifford Gilph, 20, cooking bacon and eggs in the kitchen and just taken a bath and spent Sunday in the house. She ordered his arrest. Hurricane Takes Heavy Toll in Santo Domingo (By A. N. P.) Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, Sept. 10.—(By Manuel Ceverra.)—Out of the devil winds of the mysterious spaces of the southeast Atlantic, nature created a rampant a resistless torrent of wind this week which swept across the ocean at the rate of 150 miles an hour and struck this beautiful city of 50,000 souls a terrible, deathly blow. Since again the benign winds of the tropics caressing and fragrance-laden, were out of their gentleness and human beings who had left their habitations in the morning, the greet a new and peaceful day found themselves by mid-afternoon the victims of the wind's furies while their homes were being blown away. Sauto Domingo is an old city. It boasts of being the first white settlement in the New World. The Spaniards had built it strong like a fortress. Stone houses and stone walls were constructed to keep out human foes. Many of the old structures had withstood the ravages of time, and upon and around the old had been built modern houses and office edifices of concrete. But the result of man's efforts for more than four centuries was artificially destroyed by nature in a fit of temper. As man himself was battered senseless to satire the lust of the fierce hurricane. At the time of this writing the number of dead is not known. More than a thousand are dead ir. this city alone. More than 10,000 were injured, struck by the wind or by flying debris. Millions of dollars worth of damage was done to property. The raging winds tore their way through the northern section of the country devastating small towns and crops, beating relentlessly upon Monte Christi and the rugged peaks of the Dominican Mountains, Dwellers on these steep mountain sides were, in a sense, impaled by the storm. Only one subject is known to have grimly withstood this agry attack of an around nature. Across the Dominicaian border, the hurricane tore through the northwest of Haiti, through the Rivière, Milot, Cape Hainat, across the Plaine du Nord, Ennery, Plaisance, Gonaive, Port de Paix, St. Mare. Across from the tow-tong mountain of Pulisboro, it struck the coast with a fierce, direct attack constructed by Haiti's Kate Heri, more than a century ago. Built stamally on Bonnet of Eyreque, this massive refuge of masonry, 2,600 feet high on the crown of a mountain, clove the winds with its sturdy prow, and forced them to continue their way, tearing the coffee trees from the hills around Plaisance and striking viciously at pineapple groves and sisal plantations, recently laid out where the Indians once held their pow-wows and made pottery. Help came almost as soon as the hurricane had wasted its strength on Dominican and Haitian mountain sides. Haiti, from the United States, the Red Cross marshalled its forces to send food and medical aid. Soldiers were put to work to construct shelters for the benefit inhabitants and to police the streets against marauders. As has been shown in his challenge to Vesuvius and Mt. Pele, man's nature is indomitable, and the work of reconstruction has already begun. Business imped along for several days, but was gradually and fitfully resumed. Each day brings ships of succor which are vessels of hope. Not yet is the city finished with burying its dead. Some streets were strewn with corpse. Each day, in some abandoned place, a new corpse is fuited. Hand in hand some persons died. But the spades are turned from the trenches for the dead to make foundations for the homes of the living. Though man must die, he must also live, and the people are building with tears in their eyes. The population of the Dominican Republic is one million. It is composed of a smattering of whites, Spaniards, French, and English, and a larger class is that of the mutuates and the mixtures of Spaniards and Indians. The largest class is that of the Negro. Unlike its twin republic of Haiti, the tendency seems toward fair-skinned inhabitants for the future. Santo Domingo has frequently felt the influence and force of the United States. For a number of years, it was under the almost complete control, in every way, of the sister republic of the north. But the marines were withdrawn and the United States government contented itself with the retention of control over Dominica even after the financial it should be said that the finances of the republic have been stabilized under American control and progressive public work has been undertaken in spite of sporadic political turbulence. The Dominican Republic has an area of 19,000 square miles, about the size of New Hampshire and Vermont combined. Will Select Route For Aqueduct From Boulder Dam After a careful engineering study of more than 60 possible routes for the Colorado River, Aqueduct by Chief Engineer Frank E. Weymouth and his staff, the data compiled was submitted to the special Board of Review composed of Thaddeus Merriman, chief engineer of the New York City water system, and William Consulting engineer of Boise, Idaho and Richard R. Lyman, Consulting engineer of Salt Lake City, Utah. After a careful stucy and check of this vast mass of data this special Board of Review selected four routes with a view to selecting one of these, after a more intensive study, as the route over which the great Colorado River Aqueduct which will come from Boulder Dam, is expected that this report will be submitted to the Board of Directors of the Metropolitan Water District early this fall. Coincident with the selection of the final route of the aqueduct, the Bureau of Power and Light of the City of Los Angeles, through its Chief Engineer and General Manager, E. E. Scattergood, prepared and submitted to the Board of Water and Power Commissioners a report showing the Bureau's financial requirements over the next three years in order to make it possible for the local electric system to absorb the new power load which will come from Boulder Dam. This program contemplates the expenditure of $31,000,000 over the three year period. Of this sum, $19,000,000 will be in the form of a bond issue to appear on the November 4, ballot for the public's approval and the remaining $12-000,000 will be supplied by the Bureau of Power and Light from its area surplus. This program was, at the suggestion of the Chamber of Commerce, submitted to a Board of Engineers, named by the Chamber, composed of W. F. Durand, Royal W. Sorensen and A. V. Quillon. The Board's report was favorable to the entire project and pronounced it "a sound business venture." Benjamin G. Brawley Publishes New Book Benjamin G. Brawley Publishes New Book DR. DILLARD OF THE JEANES FUND IS LAT- EST PRODUCTION * The life story of a man whose work is known throughout the South! With admirable taste and good judgment Mr. Brawley has very largely allowed Dr. Dillard to speak for himself concerning his unweary efforts in the cause of education and racial goodwill. Special chapters are devoted to the Jeanes Foundation and The Slater Fund, organizations which have done, and are still doing, great things for education in the South. Any study of Dr. Dillard's career must of necessity, entail a survey of agencies with which he is so finely associated; and this we are clearly and fully aware of Mr. Brawley's lucidly written pages.

Beauty Culturists Hold Session Memphis, Tenn., Sept. 10. The National Beauty Culturists' League, incorporated, opened its eleventh annual session at Church Park Auditorium, Monday, closing Friday, Sept. 5th. Monday night the organization staged for the Memphis public a benefit program in which the Recreation Department of the City and the Fulley Brothers Concert Co., partied. Pated. The children of the various playgrounds appeared on the program under the direction of the various young women in charge of playground activities. Delegates from New York to California were in attendance. Barbers and Customers Oppose Union (BY: A. N. P.) New York, Sept. 10—Loud and long are the protests following the unionizing of the colored barbers of New York City under the auspices of the Master Barbers, a white association. The protests are from both barbers and customers. First, the barbers who have been guaranteed $25 per week, following an arbitration when $30 was demanded, are not getting in the customers they used to; second, there are 200 barbers thrown out of work as a result of the salary demand guarantee; third, the customers are loath to pay 60c for a haircut and 20c for a shave, with correspondingly high prices on other sartorial luxuries. In order to meet the guarantees demanded by the barbers' union, owners many of whom are heavily in debt, were forced to cut out from one barber in the small shops to as many as three in the large shops. This gives a surplus of barbers to meet the future demand. one or the benefits to the trade, however, has been the weeding out of that type of barber who resorts to barbering after he has failed at every other attempt to earn a living. So few real barbers are found among the younger element that a good barber in New York City, of course, in good standing with the union, can earn a pretty fair salary. Combining this with the new hours, from 8 in the morning until 8 at night except on Saturdays where the shops are allowed two hours later, the union has accomplished some good. However, the majority of shops in Harlem are manned by Porto Riccians who are in the lead as far as excellence of work is concerned. Approximately, one thousand colored barbers in the city have joined the union which sprang up almost overnight under the guidance of organizers from the white association. Summer School Ends At A and T College (By: A. N. P.) Greensboro, N. C. Sept. 10.—The Agricultural and Technical College of North Carolina brought to a successful close its thirty-third summer school session this week. This summer, under the direction of Prof. W. T.

Tuesday afternoon to hear evidence against alleged leaders of the mob which stormed the county jail and lynched two boys August 7. The jury consists of four farmers, a contractor, and a business man. A total of twelve names of persons implicated in the crime has been given to Attorney General Orden who is pressing the inquiry. These names were supplied to him by his staff investigators and by Walter White, acting secretary of the National Association for the advancement of Colored People, and turned over to the grand jury by him. The state was compelled to take action when it became apparent that the connections of the county prosecutor and the sheriff was causing them to let the matter die. Agitation for the ouster of the sheriff has been started, but may not be successful because of his political affiliations. Friday, September 12, 1930 PLAIN FACTS BY RUTH J. TEMPLE Specializing in Women's Diseases and Obstetrics NOTE: Please address all queries concerning this column to Dr. Dr. Ruth J. Temple, 803 E. 32nd St. HU. 3419 or VA. 1221 TO A GIRL OF FOURTEEN CONCERNING HER LIFE IN GENERAL That which is good for one individual, under the same circumstances, is usually good for another individual. For this reason I shall quote in full the folding letter which was written from France in 1918 by Dr. H. N. Sisco, captain of the Medical Corps, U. S. Army, to his daughter on her fifteenth birthday: "Dear KATHLEEN: You are now fifteen. You are passing from childhood to youth. You are at life's threshold. It is well at such a time, therefore, to estimate one's present and plan for one's future. "You are strong physically: faithfully obey the laws of life, in order that you may reap a harvest of health in all your later years." THE FEEBLE A HANDICAP "The feeble are a handicap to themselves and to the community. "You are in school. Be studious, for now your days are golden; apply yourself closely. Have system in your study. Teach your mind how to persist and to penetrate. Learn all you can of everything. Education consists as much in acquiring a keen and powerful intellect as in the memory of facts. "Also learn all you can outside of school. Listen to instructive lectures. Tolerate only good music; read wholesome literature: know the news, of the day. The individual without an education these days is at a disadvantage in life's conflict. BE PUNCTUAL "Procrastination is the thief of time, of opportunity, of life itself. Our lives are short enough at the longest. The wise man does not wait until tomorrow; never procrastinate. "Avoid slang in your conversation. Slang is the chaf among the wheat of pure English. "Court order and heatness—about the person, about the dress, at your desk, in your room. The condition found in corners, drifters, closets, often advertises the type of character. RECREATION "Recreation is as necessary as hard work: a vacation is not always recreation. It is often dissipation. Recreation should relax the mind and body and rest. It should make more efficient, instead of less so, for more hard work. "Always laugh without silliness, and have fun without foolishness." I consider this letter brim: full of sound advice to a girl of 14 or 15 years and as I continue to quote its lines for the next one or two issues I feel sure that any girl or boy or even any grown up, who carefully and thoughtfully goes over its pages will find a great wealth of benefit from the pen or this wise man of experience and learning. Take Diamonds to Drive Away Evil Spirits New Haven, Conn., Sept. 10—By A. N.P.—A white woman said to have formerly been a member of the faculty of Fisk University, at Nashville, Teen fell under the influence of voodooism and was victimized out of jewelry valued at $200 and $45 in cash the past week. Miss Ruth Shappelle, the duped school teacher of New York City, who made her initial bow to New Haven in December as guest soloist at the Dixwell Avenue Congregational Church, of which the Rev. Edward Goins, D. D., is pastor, later returned and spent the summer in the home of Mrs. Eulait Proctor, director of the Dixwell Community House. The past week a thin featured woman in black called at the home and promised to drive away the evil spirit that is causing Miss Shappelle's illness. To do this the woman said she must possess some personal property of Miss Shappelle's. The victim handed over $200 in diamond rings and cash to the amount of $45. After uncanny muttering in incantations over these valuables, which the woman said were powerful blessings, she left with her boodle which she was to keep until the spell passed. The police were called in after several days had passed, and Miss Shapelle did not notice any good results. A Mrs. Foster was also a loser, and the detective bureau is asking for a report from all others.

A few excerpts: “What has probibition done for the Negro? * * * Prahibition in the South Was meant primarily as a means to gain greater control of the Negro. * * ‘The whites knew that they. would Dave all the liquor they wantea. * * * The result has been that Negroes have been lead to either moonshining or to drinking shoe polifh, fusel oil, paint remover, etc. * * * " The writ- er draws the conclusion that prohi- bition has benefitted the Negro very little.

We are humble with appreciation ‘before the people ot Southern California whose confidence ‘has made our growth possible . .‘. and whose increasing patronage has made enlarged; quarters necessary. : We want you to know that our greatest pride in our new home comes from the realization that it gives us more adequate facilities with which to serve you; that it better equips us to repay, with service, our debt of gratitude to this community and to its people. We do not regard our new home as the goal of past per- formance, but rather as a starting point on the road to new & hievement; a road to which we hope we shall never find an ending. It-is with these thoughts that we welcome a day we have long anticipated the day we invite all of Los Angeles to our housewarming. No business will be transacted between the hours of 10 A.

CHURCHES Baptist The Los Angeles Baptist Ministers Union met last Monday in their regular session. President Moore with usual promptness called the meeting to order at 1 P. M. Revs. Messa and Handy conducted devotionals. By special request report of the proceedings of the National Convention at Chicago by brethren who attended was made the order of the day. The President modestly declined the request that hibtebe e gcalleda J.M. a quest that he be the spokesman for, and called on Revs. Demsay, Hines, Harris, Addison, Moss, and Prowd, who in turns gave, lucid and acceptable account of occurrences and also their reactions. Never before was such a feeling as that exhibited by the brethren to learn the facts, especially such having reference to the awful murder of the late Auditor, Mr. E. M. Pierson. The action of the Officers of the Convention led by President L. K. Williarass, that while the Law is seeking to get, and punish the guilty, that The Convention refrain from any discussion of the matter, was approved by all present. President Williams' position, as reflected in his annual address, that everything be done to bring the guilty to justice, high or Law; was hailed as honorable, and just. The brethren indicated a strong feeling that those who are, in any manner, charged with this brutal murder ought to welcome any opportunity to clear their own, and also the name of the Baptist Denomination, as otherwise, an indelible stain remains. General approval of The California Delegation in its support of President Williams, was tendered all who attended. The Union adjourned to meet again next Monday at the same place, and time.

Our Sunday School was well attended. Superin tendent Bateman exhibits the true attitude of the consistent guide of little children, and the real object of the Sunday School—namely to lead the children to the Saviour. His constant effort in this matter must eventually bear fruit, at being the day for ob servance of The Lord's Supper, Dr Proud spoke from Matt. 28:31, using the only word "GOLGOTHA". We all experienced a most blessed season of refreshing from The Almighty. At 1 o'clock the Rev. Dr. Curtis delivered a great message to us, using the words—Launoh out into the deep. Our brother was in good form, and all enjoyed the sermon. A very acceptable offering was taken for The Tribe of 'ASACHAR' headed by Sister Young. Inspirational们 were conducted by Brother Price and Jones. At night Dr. Proud spoke from Like 18:14, using the words—I Tell you. The word was with power, and all received benefit. The services this Sunday will be of unusual interest, and we therefore invite all to attend. All the young Ministers of the city will conduct a service at 3 o'clock for the Tribe of 'ASHER'. Sister Jones who heads this Tribe, is doing her very best to aid the Church and all should lend a hand, and also to encourage these young preachers.

"Modern Sun worship, and God's great message against it" will be the unusual subject at the Big Gospel Tent, Central Avenue, and 49th Place Sunday night, Sept. 14th at 8 P.M. But a few people realize just what is going on in the religious world as related to the Old time worship of the sun, so Evangelist P. G. Rodgers will endeavor to show the modern nature of ancient sun worship and point out from the warnings in the BIBLE the way to escape the penalty of heaven against this hateful form of religious worship. The sermons preached at the Big Tent, surely make one think and read, and then bestir the heart to obey the commands of the HOLY book, the Bible. Each night during the week thrilling sermons are presented, and many of these subjects are illustrated by the use of stereopticon views of the latest making Good music, a Big Tent clean, comfortable and restful makes the service one that cannot fail to satisfy. Visit the Big Tent during the last two weeks that it will continue.

The city referred to was spoken of as to its Elevation, Beauty, Attraction and Protection. The Christian was likened to this city that sits on a hill in being elevated above the evils of this world and when they possess good character though clothed in homespun, their life is beautiful. As the city's beauty attracts thousands of tourists annually the Christian will attract the unsaved, and backsliders will be reclaimed. Many visitors attended and expressed themselves as receiving such benefits that they will not only come but bring others with them.

YOUR CITY-OWNED BUREAU of POWER and LIGHT City of Los Angeles 4 MR. THATCHER THANKS VOTERS "Through the columns of your publication, may I express, to the voters of East Los Angeles, as well as those throughout the first supervisorial district, my appreciation for the splendid vote of confidence which 30,121 citizens of this district gave to me by casting their ballots for my candidacy in the recent primary election. "I fully realize the honor, and the trust, conveyed in that grand total of votes cast for me. I shall not break faith in this, to me a sacred trust. "The greatest satisfaction I received from the primary victory is the fact that the people realized that the great business of this country is their business and that they are going to make an effort to conduct it on a business basis. This was my campaign pledge. That pledge still stands. "No man can receive such a vote as I received at the primary and not be duly conscious of his responsibility. Accordingly, just as I conducted my primary campaign without entangling alliances, I am going into the final contest without entangling alliances, and I shall win or lose in November unfettered." Will Perpetuate Work of "Mother Catherine Will Perpetuate Work of "Mother Catherine (Dv. A. N. P.) New Orleans, La., Sept. 9.—Now that the mantle of power has fallen from Mother Catherine's shoulders to St. Albert's, everyone is greatly concerned as to the continued success of the cult that brought almost universal fame to the deceased founder St. Albert's ascent to the exalted position was by no means formal. No jewelied crown was placed upon her forehead; no sceptre to denote her sovereignty; no courtly attired attendants following her to strew flowers on the path. No, she merely inherited "Mother's" power and has resolved to carry on; to pray for those who are in need of prayer and to administer the salt, blessed by "Mother." Saint Albert was born in Baton Rouge, La., sixty-five years ago. She bears the marks of one having had many hardships. She is kind, yet stern, and it is this latter attribute that makes her very much misunderstood at times. The saints of lesser degree all accept St. Albert, because they know it is the will of "mother" being carried out. Unlike other cults that have perished with the passing of their leaders, the "Truth and Light" followers under the guidance of the blessed St. Albert bid fair to grow stronger. Los Angeles, Cali To the Editor of the California Eagle 847 South Central Avenue Los Angeles, California Dear Sir: Having noticed the article in reference to the effort of the Undertakers conspiring to get L. G. Robinson's job; kindly allow me a small part of your valuable space to say that it is indeed reassuring to know we have such public officials in Los Angeles County who will protect and uphold the right and meet out even-handed justice to all people. The conclusion of the Board that the complaints were founded on here TICAL MEANDERINGS By DRINNE BETTIS SMITH POLITICAL POT PIE POLITICAL POT PIE The final swing for action in a campaign to the finish will soon be on its way. The contests however will be purely local in character as there is no serious apprehension as regards the state ticket. We hear a deal of bragging about a local race newspaper being able to extract $2700.00 from a sucker manager of the Young for Governor Campaign in the primaries. Such being the case it came from high pressure tactics and the betrayal of confidence in accepting recommendation, and the wise thing to do would be to soft pedal the story which is subject to so many conjectures. For be it known there are other newspapers who spurned more than twice the amount, for they could not be bought. Mayor Rolph, Governor Young and District Attorney Fitts are now all in the same category, shoulder to shoulder ready to give battle to the common enemy. Pin head Negroes are still fighting each other and would destroy someone if they could over what was said in a political campaign. CAN YOU BEAT IT? It looks like a mighty race on for Shriff of this county and an organization must be gotten together both for offense and defense, are you ready? Let's go! Fred Roberts did not know just how fast he could run, until he got into a new district made to his liking and how he did run. Col. C. H. Alston, is the uncrowned leader and it's up to the Col. to walk right up get that crown and when the new governor goes in, get the recognition which is due to the people whom he represented in Mayor Rolph's successful campaign. The boys have not all returned from up Salt Creek as yet, for instance; A. P. Alberga, Westey Peoples, Bill McLamore; Jesse Graves and others are among the missing, yes, Dr. H. C. Hudson is back, no doubt along with all others who were forced to make the trip, trip for a comeback. Oh yes, test we forget-one John H. Taylor, last seen at Young headquarters, L.

Surely if he was using his office to further his business he was a failure if he allowed his competitors to receive 52 cases and he stopped 37.

Pastor—Sunday was a banner day at Grant Chapel. Large congregations were present at all services. Beginning with the early prayer meeting throughout the day the services were truly inspiring. At the eleven o'clock service the Pastor preached using as a subject "Soul Saving". Many expressed themselves as having greatly enjoyed the sermon. Bro. L. G. Eggleston the chorister was back at his post as director and the choir rendered splendid music. The Junior Endeavor led by James Green had a splendid meeting. At 7:30 Rev. Crowell preached a splendid sermon in advance of the special service which was held at 8:00 o'clock. Promptly at eight the two chairs both the senior and junior marched in and sang during the services. The singing was wonderfully inspiring. Speakers representing the different departments of the church gave five minute talks showing the work of the departments they represented. The majority of these talks were really enlightening and inspiring to the large congregation. The group leaders made splendid reports on the Dollar Money fund. This report will be increased by additional reports by the Leaders for the next two Sundays. All members and friends who have not paid their Dollar Money yet are asked to turn it in to the group leader this Sunday. Everybody is excited over the "Crowning of the Queen of the Ten Virgins". Which will take place at the Church next Thursday night. This will be the most unique affair given in this church for some time. A big crowd is expected to witness the crowning of the queen. This Sunday will be visitors day. Visitors and strangers will be made the special guests of the church. You are invited to attend and will be made welcome. Shaw Mission M. E. Church—Rev. O. Stout. Pastor—The Sunday School had a good attendance. The Pastor preached at the eleven o'clock service, using as a text "Be of good cheer". At the close of the sermon the Lord's supper was administered. Sister Norman and sister Epps from Wesley Chapel were among the visitors. The pastor preached again at the evening service. The work on the church has been completed and adds much to the attractiveness of the place. The Primary department will move into their new room this Sunday. Mrs. Katie Daniels is the teacher. Much credit for this work is due Brother Samuel Thomas, President of the Trustee Board. Next Sunday at three o'clock a special service will be held at which time Rev. A. P. Shaw, astor of Wesley Chapel and members of the choir will be present. Rev. Shaw will preach the sermon. The local Pastors and congregations are invited to this service.

Vicksburg, Miss., Sept. 10.—Extraordinary cunning saved the life of James Donald here Monday when he was ambushed by a squad of officers who were seeking him for shooting Assistant Game Warden, Jeff Stanford, white, in the legs with bird shot. The game warden had encountered Donald hunting and commanded him to halt in the woods. Instead of throwing up his hands, Donald took a shot at the officer, stinging his legs with the shot. The officer limped to his car and returned to the city for help. With several other officers he sought out Donald and met him again near Mint Springs Bavon. Donald was in his automobile when he became aware that the posse of cops was closing in on him. But he determined to fight it out and emptied a pistol at them, hitting no one. When the policemen became aware that Donald was out of ammunition, they closed in on him, firing a fusillade of shots. Donald slumped over the wheel. The officers rushed the car and grabbed him, expecting to find a badly-wounded man. Instead, Donald had pretended to be shot to keep them from shooting at him further and had thereby saved his life.

Senate would be disgraced by his presence and the strong probability of a like situation, for old Tom Heflin of Alabama is encouraging to the highest degree and should call forth praises to the Lord for his goodness in cleansing our highest legislative body, from the crude, rough and uncultured misits which have caused this country on numerous occasions to hang its head in shame at their disgraceful antics. Their special mission was the preachment of hate and creators of prejudice. Their subjects were the black Americans, in their fiery tirades against these citizens, they did not hurt the black people at all, but they did lower the standard and respect for our government to the lowest degree.

Likewise and there will be no such "a tion along the above lines, can be very helpful indeed. Oscar De Priest coined the phrase "Hungry Leadership," and stated we could get no-where with it. That he was right is conceded on all sides. Now then Hungry Leadership did not mean the leader was necessarily hungry, but it was to the effect that as long as those who were really supposed to lead were in the position of being on the pay roll for his leading, the group could and would not get anywhere politically. This thought of course applies to leaders only, for surely it is conceded that workers are worthy of hire and no odum is cast as they receive their wage. But with the leaders it is different, for it is his duty to not only serve patriotically but actually and truly be a contributor if he or she is to receive the consideration for the group which is their goal. Instead of this situation, if we have a leadership with hands outstretched, awaiting his pay check and consorting with others for a rake off of what he procures for them—"We are blowed up." PERISH THE THOUGHT OF UNTOWARD THINGS: They say do not think in terms of hard times and there will never be any hard times. Likewise they say think not in envy, strife or malice, and there will be no such "animal." Anyhow we move that a concentration along the above lines, cannot be harmful and on the contrary might be very helpful indeed.

This reason business is sometime one thing; and then another. Sometimes it is an unholy alliance for sordid pelf, sometimes it is a gesture for more power or to think they are dealing out misery for some fancied wrong.

Only last week a score of the members of our group were discharged from the Pacific Coast Insurance Company's Cafe and their places given to the white group. These occurrences are but a warning and calls upon our people to fight out their own destiny along the line of business endeavor.

Many a husband is willing to accept advice from almost any woman except his wife. So drive today that the florist won't build an "At Rest" pillow for you tomorrow. Milliners are responsible for a great deal of the overhead expense of the average home. The person who depends on others is usually looking for an opportune time to importune. Every man should live so that he has no use for a lawyer to get him out of trouble. Affluence consists in ability to keep the old car instead of trading it in on the new one. Man isn't the only one whose hereafter is uncertain. A cotton seed never knows whether it will be hog lard or olive oil. Many a fight is not for rights but for wants. It is very easy to rise in your own estimation. A good name like great riches is often faked. Sympathy seekers deserve much more than they get.

Before bidding adieu to the Fair we must express our gratification. We believe that Governors Day was the best expression of the true California spirit that it has been witnessed in many decades. The political Tharpies who have been spreading the doctrine of state sectionalism should hide their faces in shame. The presentation of Mayor James Rolph by Governor C. C.

How different from the little spites that some of the adherents of both hold. It is amusing; yet most pitiful to listen to some of the "politicians", as they make discourse; may as well come to your senses my friends.

Among the group are many seasoned educators with long records of distin-guished service as teachers, supervisors, administrators and even college presidents. The net faculty increase for the coming year is in excess of any previous year. Practically all of the additions are for new places and not merely replacement.

The General Education Board, founded by John D.

Carries Silver Dollar In Mouth 67 Years Georgia May Wash "Black Shirts" White New Orleans, La, Sept. 10—By A. N.P.-Right at the time we hear of the Soviet ambition to arouse the American Negroes to discontent, unrest, and final revolt, we find Uncle Jim Webster of Winston Salem, N. C., defending carrying a silver dollar in his mouth since he was 17 years old, as follows: "I ain't never been sick, has? I An' ue 84." Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 10 By A.N.P. "The Black Shirt" organization, formed primarily to uphold white supremacy in Negroes from jobs, is destined to have rough sliding throughout this state if present indications mean anything. But when he hears that he might be shot, in Russia; for "boarding silver" he will not take much stock in the Soviet aim to "have him arise" against his white neighbors. Of course, many people have reached 84 years; many people never have been sick. But how many are 84, never been sick and carried a silver dollar in their mouths 67 years? Not many. Already an injunction has been issued restraining the organization from securing a charter until a full investigation by state officials and several states has ban upon the sale of the Black Shirt, an official organ of the American Fascist. True, it is that many have carried and Irish potato against reheumatix, a buckeye for buck-age, or a rabbit foot against ha'ants; but they carried them in their pockets or in a bag around the neck to ward.

According to the mayor, the publication seriously enamifies amicable relations which exists in the city between the races and threats to the good work done by the Interracial Commission and other organizations working to bring about better feeling between the two groups. Surplus of Laborers In Delta In Athens and Macon, similar edicts have been issued by city officials and efforts are being made to abolish the system which boasts of thousands of members that has been termed as more dangerous than have pernicious than the Ku Klux Klan. Clarksdale, Miss., Sept. 10.—Contrary to the usual custom, planters of the Mississippi Delta are being confronted with the problem of what to do with surplus labor, on account of the fact that for the last month or two there has been almost a steady stream of colored workers from Chicago, St. Louis, Cincinnati, and other northern cities coming this way on the lookout for work or a place to eat and sleep. The question of getting labor is usually an acute one among cotton growers, but the labor problem this year has resolved itself into how to get rid of the surplus. State officials and leading citizens who recognize the worth of Negro labor or prefer it to foreign labor, and in some instances to native white labor, have denounced the organization, its methods, and purposes with the idea of washing "the blackshirts" white. On the other hand, the charterless organization is going ahead securing members from the army of unemployed whites Negrophobists throughout the state through appealing to race pre- do with surplus to the fact that for two there has been stream of colome cage, St. Louis, or northern cities of the lookout for wives and sleep.

Under existing circumstances at Howard, it is impossible for a squash really train. Because of economy and morals, the administration has discontinued a training table for the Football Squad. Those familiar with the athletic activities at Howard know what havoc this situation created last year with our team, others with Common Horse Sense know how impossible it is for men to train on empty stomachs. And yet they must at Howard. Men cannot work and train too. But Howard gridmen must choose between work, hunger, and no football at all. With the help of the Alumni, the Student Council can and will remedy this situation. We want to see a winning team. We want to see Howard retain her Glory of the past. We will provide a training table ourselves. Let every loyal Alumni send a subscription to The Student Council Training Table Fund at Howard! This must be done at once. We wish that the Howard Clubs in every community would sponsor some affair to raise funds to help us remedy this urgent need. The Hill Top will print the names of each individual or club which subscribes to this fund to together with the amount seen. Act immediately as it will soon be time for the whistle to blow.

AMONG THE MAGAZINES Scarcely to be estimated is the tremendous influence exerted by magazine articles read simultaneously in many cities and countries. No one who keeps abreast of the times dares ignore the trend of thought, of education, and of fashion in everything from books to dogs, the current magazines present in attractive form. IN WESTERN FLYING for September there is an article by W. G. Herron on NEW LIFE FOR THE AIR LINES. It is a thorough analysis of the brightest spots in aviation today. THEA TRE always has something bright and different to offer about plays and actors, on the stage and in the talkies. IN THE AMERICAN MERCURY Eleanor R. Wembridge has an article on THE NEGRO IN CUSTODY. BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS gives us suggestions for the house, yard, and food. In the September AMERICAN MAGAZINE are stories by Arthur Somers Roche, Fannie Kilbourne, Rafael Sabantini, and others. Familiarity with the best of the periodicals found on the shelves of the libraries brings a pleasant sense of friendship with columns, departments and editors. Every magazine has a character and flavor all its own and the publications of long standing like true friends grow more precious with the patting of the years.

Carlo, Curtis has arranged a great card for the weekly Saturday night show at the Main Street Club. He has matched Teddy Pelacios and Don Smith for the six-round main event and the match appears to be one of the best arranged at the downtown club in weeks. Pelacios is a hard hitting Mexican lightweight who has had his opponents on the floor in thirty straight houts. He bounced Johnny Lamar and Hector McDonald off the canvas at Hollywood. At Ventura, Pismo Beach, El Centro and other outlying clubs Pelacios has been a sensation. In Smith Pelacios is meeting a rough lightweight with a punch and while Pelacios will be the favorite Smith figures to give him the toughest kind of a battle. In his last start Smith drew with Freddie Merino, the Compton favorite who had scored seventeen straight knock-outs. Marcs Morales, Mexican baseball star, will meet Jack Grande in the four-round semi-windup. Saturday night. They are 150-pounders. Morales has had but four ring starts and won them all.

Wins Shooting Prize Camp Perry, Ohio, Sept. 9.—Willie James of the 25th United States Infantry, won the Leech Cup Monday, one of the most highly prized of national shooting match awards, over a field of 1,403 competitors. Sergent James made a score of 103 out of a possible 105. There were nine other similar scores, the prize winner being determined by the number of most perfect bull's eyes. Sergeant F. Barrett, United States cavalry, won second place, and L. R. R. G. Lovett, United States engineers, was third. Harry Smith and Gorilla Jones Fight a "No Contest" (By A. N. P.) New York, Sept. 10.—Something of a bitter taste was left in the mouths of the fans who journeyed out to Queensboro Stadium, Thursday night to see the widely-advertised fracas between Harry Smith, billed as the Negro middleweight champion, with aspirations for Mickey Walker's crown, and Gorilla Jones, the rushing, slashing husband of Nina Mae McKinney. After eight rounds of desultory sparring, the referee stopped the fight, declaring it a "no contest." There were some ringsiders, however, who were disposed to feel that the contrasting styles of the two fighters prevented them from putting up what might have been a slamb battle. The gorilla is of the resistless, wading-in-type, who has achieved his success because of his ability to crash an opponent's defense. But in Smith he met a master boxer, who seemed to be nowhere that the Gorilla went. Jones kept Smith on the defensive by his aggressive tactics, but at th same time was as unable to land telling offensive blows as was Smith. Two Ladies Join Hole- In-One Club Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Sept. 10.—Mrs. John L. Anderson, wife of the institute electrician, and her slater, Mrs. A. N. Cobban, two of Tuskegee's enthusiastic women golfers, have recently joined the hole-in-one club. While playing on the miniature course on Monday afternoon, Mrs. Anderson COLORED LIGHTWEIGHT WILL BE FEATURE Lincoln Giants and Stars of Cuba Meet September Lon Chaney Uses Ventriloquism in First CARD IN RE-OPENING PICO ATHLETIC CLUB 14 In First Game of Series for World's LEADING PLAYER OF "GOOD INTENTIONS" FINDS ROLES OF 'LOW LIFE' MORE FASCINATING AND EFFECTIVE THAN THOSE OF 'HIGH BROWS' "Hardboiled" roles are both the easiest and the most effective ones to play, according to Edmund Lowe, Fox movietone celebrity who won world-wide fam in "What Price Glory," "The Cock Eyed World" and "Born Reckless," and who is featured in "Good Intentions," the movie-tone drama opening Sunday at the Tivoli Theatre, for three days. THE FASHION GIRL EDMUND LOWE IN "GOOD INTENTIONS"—TIVOLI One of the best colored lightweights on the Pacific Coast will help re-open the Pico Athletic Club, Wednesday night, when Homer Gaines meets Joe Guerrero in the scheduled six-round main event. Gaines is a big star at the smaller clubs. He never tries to pick his opponents and can always be depended upon to put up a slashing battle. Gaines and Guerrero figure to draw a big crowd to the Pico arena. Guerrero is the Mexican lightweight champion and a crowd pleaser. Paul Gomez and Jack Tremaine, 147-pounders will box the six-round HARD BOILED CHARACTERS ARE LEADING PLAYER OF "GOOD OF 'LOW LIFE' MORE FASCO THAN THOSE OF "Hardboiled" roles are both the to play, according to Edmund Lowe world-wide fam in "What Price Gl "Born Reckless," and who is feature tone drama opening Sunday at the EDMUND LOWE IN "GOO "While I have enacted almost every conceivable type of part during my stage and screen career, I greatly prefer the so-called 'hardboiled' ones," Lowe says. "Most people have a streak of obstinacy or temper or vanity in their makeup, and the Ivory soap hero, 90 and 44-100 pure, seldom exists in real life. "As a consequence, it is much easier for an actor to impersonate a real life character and make him convincing, with his various faults and idiosyncracies, than it is to portray the gentlemanly and quite colorless hero of the old style fiction and drama. The audience watches one's performance of some thirty minute egg character and immediately recalls a similar person they have known personally, which in turn gives them a greater interest in the portraval. "For this reason, too, such impersonations are more effective, as the spectators will remember them much longer than they will the playing of a polite but unreal character. I have proved this time and again in my own experience, basing my conclusions on the quantity of fan mail resulting from each picture. While I have worked shot a hole-in-one, and Mrs. Cohen, playing the same afternoon, did likewise. The Tom Thumb Course, which was laid out under the supervision of Coach Cleve L. Abbott, director of athletics, on the plot of ground near the old C. I.

They are: Paul Bukke vs. Sal Ortega, 130 pounds; Clifford Campbell vs. Young Ralph, 118 pounds; Tony Garcia vs. Gesel Hood, 175 pounds. The Pico club ranks next to the Olympic and Hollywood when it comes to seating capacity. Before closing for the summer months the club was the most successful of the smaller organizations. There has been a switch in the management and every effort will be made to help bring the sport of boxing out of its present slump.

OD INTENTIONS"—TIVOLI just as hard in going these 'gentlemanly' roles, and, I think, given as good a performance, none of them seem to have aroused anything like the response from the tougher portrayals. Evidently the public likes its realism. In "Good Intentions," Lowe is said to have one of the most exciting roles of his career. He plays the part of a famous crook, the suave leader of a band of international thieves, who decides to reform for the sake of a girl, but finds it impossible to live down his past. Marguerite Churchill, Regis Tooney, Owen Davis, Jr., Hale Hamilton, Earle Foxe, J. Carrol Naish, Eddie Gribbon, Robert McVade, Pat Somerset, Henry Kolker and Georgia Caine have the principal supporting roles in this stirring talk, written and directed by William K. Howard. Johnny Christmas Drops Decision to Joe Guerero Johnny Christmas who has been going great guns of late lost the decision to Joe Guerero at the Main Street Athletic Club on last Saturday night. This contest was for the Pacific Coast Championship. Chrimas put the Mexican on the floor twice, but he kept coming on to get the decision. Christmas worked with a sprained hand. New York, Wednesday, Sept. 10.—Commending Sunday, September 14, it will be gala throngs that will be wending their way to Colonel Jake Rurpert's Yankee Stadium, but a store's throw from Harlem, to witness the series of games, to be engaged in by Jim Keenan's Lincoln Giants and other leading teams of color, to determine the world's colored baseball championship. The first clash will bring together the famous Stars of Cuba, under the personal direction of the popular Walla Walla Ohms, the team which has compiled an enviable record for the season and which has been one of the biggest drawing cards at Nat C. Strong's stronghold at Dexter Park. The consensus of opinion naturally finds the Lincoln Giants a two-to-one choice to bring home the bacon for John Henry Lloyd and Jimmie Keenan, but in all fairness to the fans and in appreciation for the support which he has received from followers of the game, Mr. Keenan will go out of his way to secure the best teams available for the entertainment of the thousands that will without doubt take advantage of the opportunity to witness the games at the Stadium. Some months back when the Lincoln Giants faced the Baltimore Black Sox at the Stadium one of the Tom Cox' New Boy Makes Good (By: A. N. P.) New York, Sept. 10.—Four thousand and rabid fight fangs howled their appreciation Thursday night when Frankie Goosby, the lad of whom his manager, Tom Cox, has done so much talking, rocked one Speedy, McCarthy to sleep in the first round of their imbroglio. From the opening bell, Frankie kept a left in Speedy's face continually, crossing occasionally with a terrific right. Only once did his opponent show anything and when Speedy tried to get fresh, Frankie let fly that right and down went Speedy. Goosby had his man down twice in the first round, the second time, the count had reached eight when the bell sounded ending the round. Kindhearted seconds dragged the McCarthy, who incidentally is not Irish but decidedly colored, to his corner where they attempted to revive him. All measures, even the most heroic failed to bring McCarthy around in time to answer the gong for the second round, so there was nothing to do but award Goosby the fight. The only speed shown in the round of fighting was that of Goosby and the name "Speedy" McCarthy is a misnomer, unless one wishes to count the speed with which he fell to the floor. Goosby scaled 155 and Speedy, 156 1-2. The main event brought toether Koli Kolo and Nick DeSalvo with the after taking plenty of punishment in the ten round fight. With everything in his favor, height, reach, Koli Kolo socked DeSalvo's jaw at will and in the final round had his opponent hanging on. The partisanship of the crowd added color to the hectic encounter. Eduardo Duarry, 139, a Cuban of color, disposed of Georgia Corbos of New York, 142, via the K. O. route in the first frame. Corbos never having a chance to lift his arms before he was down. Augustine Peres, Porto Riclan Mightweight, won a technical knockout over Harry Matkinsky in the fifth round and Mickey Carlo, Bronx, 125 dropped a decision to Burno Petracha, 130 in a thriller that set the ans wild for the entire six peppy largest and most colorful gatherings of recent times turned out to witness the contests, and this first double header between the Islanders and Captain Lloyd's faithful retinue of diamond performers should see a duplication of that day, which furnished the inspiration for these other contests in the face for first place honors before the snow starts to fly. The other games will take place on September 21 and 28 and October 5. With a desire to let New York decide if the claims being made by the Homestead Grays for championship honors had any foundation in fact, Jimmie Keenan made overtures to bring the Grays to this city, but from last reports "Cum" Posey and his team ran into a hole and pulled the hole in after them. Keenan's gesture in securing the Stadium for these games proves his desire to bring the games right home to Harlem, for the Stadium is so easy of access few fans will miss the opportunity, not only to follow the events, but to greet their friends at a place ideally laid out and located as is the Stadium. These contests will be the biggest thing in baseball in the East and will settle the question of supremacy in this part of the country for this season. Minstrel Marathon Breaks All Records Three couples shared honors in capturing the $1000 prize posted by the American Legion, Maywood Post No. 223 and incidently in shattering a world's record when the all Colored Minstrel Marathon came to a close Sunday night at 11:30 and found them on their feet after having danced continuously for 2211 hours. The three couples who survived the nerve-racking, and muscle-binding strain over the three months' grind were, Miss Mildred Harris and Graham Fain; Miss Dorothy Williams and "Georgia Boy"; Miss Rosa Bolden and Maudice Giles. All reported they were none the worse for their experience. The contest began on June 7th at 8:30 P. M. with twelve couples, each confident of winning, but as the weeks slipped by the grind began to tell, and one couple after another dropped out, until only three were left to answer the final bell on Sept. 7th at 11:30 P. M., three months and three hours later. Besides the capital prize each successful contestant received many expensive individual prizes from their respective friends, including which were articles of clothing, jewelry and even furniture. Miss Dorothy Williams reports an offer of a three-months contract to dance at George Ramsey's night club in San Diego, also an extended expenseless trip to France later. Others also report flattering offers. The Marathon an outdoor affair, being held under a tent, was sponsored by the American Legion. Maywood Post No. 223 under the direction of Vernon Balfour at 52nd and Atlantic Boulevard. Maywood, California. The Lincoln Golf Links We accepted the compliments of Mr. Geo. G. Gamagishi proprietor and Mr. Chas. Lawson, manager of the Lincoln Golf Links on Tuesday evening and ye Soaring Eagle scribes played our first round of golf at this very, beautiful and intricate golf course located at 53rd and Central avenue. We were accorded every courteys and as it was our first experience, we are sure it took plenty of patience to carry the course of 14 holes which was fully encompassed by the score of 91 and 96 respectively. Mr. Lawson, the manager, is an old Montana acquaintance of ours and with him the hearty, western spirit ever prevails which is largely due the popularity of the Lincoln course. HORACE HAMPTON BILL EDWARDS Saturday Lon Chaney Uses Ventriloquism in First Talkie---"The Un- holy Three" Lon Chaney will make his first speaking appearance on the screen Thursday at the Lincoln Theatre in Unholy Three," all-talking version of his former silent success but said to be vastly different from the earlier film in that he assumes not only two disguises but five vocal characterizations and also makes a dummy sing by the art of ventriloquism. The new Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production was directed by Jack Conway with continuity by J. C. Nugent and Elliott Nugent. The younger Nugent is also in the supporting cast which includes Lila Lee, Harry Earles, John Miljan, Jvan Linow, Clarence Burton and Crauford Kent. FILM HAS MYSTERIOUS PLOT The picture is based on C. A. Robbins' story of a side-show ventriolquist who becomes involved together with a circus giant and midget in an amazing criminal plot. The ventriolquist fools the police by running a pet shop in the disguise of an old woman while the midget impersonates a baby. The clerk in the store, knowing nothing of their activities, is "framed" after a murder, but the ventriolquist's love for a girl who pleads for the boy's vindication finally prevails in a dramatic court room scene climax. Interesting scenes in the production include those of the pet shop in which a wide variety of animals and birds are seen and those of the circus side-shows in which actual circus freaks play prominent part. In preparing for his first talking roles, Chaney asserts he employed a unique method of practicing the various characterizations. "I didn't want to be a nuisance at home," the star stated recently, "nor did I want to do it around the studio. So I practiced the different voice inflections while driving to and from work in my automobile. Once a traffic cop looked at me as though he thought I were out of my mind, but I didn't let a little thing like that stop me."
