Southern Negro life will be present.
ed at the Ambassador Theater during
the week of October 20th. In spite
of all that has been said and done
against giving the Negro equal rec-
cognition on the stage and screen, it
oceurs to us that much cepends upon
the Negro’s application to-business and
his conduct while on the job.
Negroes are divided into three dis-
tinct class¢s, and at no time have
these been able to get together for the
common wiel. +
First, we have the “yes boss” grin-
ning class, which deems it an honor to’
be permitted to play the monkey roll,
for any and ali at all times. As a
tule he gets places where the dignified
Negro can't, for his password is his |
monkey shines. It has been said that
the first impression is the lasting im-
Pression; hence he has done and is
doing more to injure the | reputation
and good name of his group’ than any
other agency.
Second, there is the cringing, cow-
crying type. who feels that we should
be obsequious and wait until our
change comes. They tell us that our
destiny is in the Lord's hands and if
we will take all the Persecution heap-
ed upon’ us the time will come when
we shall come into our own.
And the third class are those who
feel that their pride is humbled when
they become a part of the other two
classes. They have attained. Educa- |)
tion and Learning, hence are financial-
ty a step ahead of the other two classes | |
—and yet when an estimate is made
of Negroes they are all dumpd into],
one and the same measure. a)
In order to be better understood by ||
those in power we must first under

UPTON SAYS
THE GOLDEN WEST LODGE
NO. 86, I. B. P. O. E. W.
I—IN THE MIDST of a very discouraging depression has laid the corner stone of their new hom.
B—BECAUSE THEY have faith in a bright future, and know that the present depression will not last.
P—PRCSPERITY for such a wide awake organization will naturally become a permanent fixture in all of their future activities.
O—OTHER LODGES and organizations should exert every effort to follow in the Elks' footsteps, Negroes are laying every brick in the magnificent structure.
E—EXALTED RULER J. W. Sutton and his official staff as well as the members of the Lodge deserve the credit and praise for the actual construction of the Temple.
W—WOMEN HAVE also played an important part in the program under the able leadership of Mrs. Lela O. Murray, Dt. Ruler of Hiawatha Temple, No. 91.
FINAL ELECTION OF LOCAL
P. P. B. A. GETS UNDER WAY—
The final election of the P. P. B. A. Local No. 1 started in full swing Wednesday, the 15th, From all indications it appeared that R. J. Murray would be the man elected to attend the Grand Lodge in Chicago, and A. Noel stood a mighty good chance of the ensuing year.
Former P. P. B. A. politicians such as C. H. Levy, J. Prayer and others being elected to head, the Local have apparently had their fill of holding offices in the P. P. B. A. C. Crain who held the office of secretary for years has made no effort for the position in this election. Crain was a very good secretary during the time he was in office and attended strictly to business. H. E. Washington who was chairman of the sick committee for many years did not have an equal in that capacity. He was always on the job visiting the sick no matter where they lived. R. Hicks was another faithful worker on the sick committee. These two men should be placed on these committees permanently if it is agreeable with them. They can be depended upon. Reports of the election will be published in this column as soon as it is completed.
DADDY JACK WORTHAM
BUYS PACKARD—
Times may be hard with some people, but not with Daddy Jack who holds down line 28 from Los Angeles to San Diego' like nobody's business. Mr. Wortham has traded in his Essex and purchased a packard in order that he might obtain more speed. With his present machine he does not have to take anybody's dust, not even the speed demon, Joe Holmes.

The Railroad Clatter is canvasing finding out what every porter in the District did before he went on the road. If you want the correct statement published, it would be advisable for all porters to mail it in to Chas. L. Upton, 2190 W. 30th street at once or phone during the day from 8:30 a. m., to 6:00 p. m. Otherwise the information must be obtained from various porters and may not be correct.

W. B. Woods handled stiffs in the General Hospital of Los Angeles and knows all about the human body.
RAIL LINES CARRY UNION DEPOT
FIGHT TO SUPREME COURT—
The railroads have appealed to the Supreme Court for reversal of the California State Supreme Court decision ordering construction of a $10,000,000 Union passenger station in this city. The appealing railroads are the Santa Fe, Southern Pacific, Los Angeles and Salt Lake. In asking the high court to assume jurisdiction, the railroads contended that the State Railroad Commission and the State Supreme Court were attempting to regulate interstate commerce.
Red Caps and Pullman Porters who have had the idea in their heads that a Union depot was going to be constructed within the year are doomed for bitter disappointment, their dream is still a long ways off and many may be retired by the time this event actually takes plae. It is my prediction that if the residents of Los Angeles live long enough they will see a Union depot. It should be completed about the time that the Boulder Dam is finished and that is some years to come.
The establishment of a new air service between Los Angeles and Atlanta, Ga., at the rate of 125 miles per hour; and Westward at 115 miles per hour was a reality as we go to press to day which is Wednesday. The fast flying schedules began at 5:35 A. M.
What did you do before you went in the Pullman service?
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

On account of the depression in business it has been reported that a large number of porters were furlowed in Chicago, if true coming at this time when the winter season enters it is rather unfortunate.
What Pullman Porters did before they went on the Road in Next Week's Railroad Clatter.
Who was the best man in that private car bout between Battling C. H. Levy and Young Joe White?

I look for some very stormy sessions in the "House," We add: That had 1 per cent of the amount—plus backbone, spent to enforce that "silly law" been used to enforce respect for the 14th and 15th Amendments the ideals of Americanism would have a firmer basis through respect for the law.
Here's a good one. An old theory reversed: John Lillie, Negro farmer, Brawley, caught a White man robbing his hen roost. James Terry, alleged culprit, was charged with attemptted theft. According to the "old tradition" the purloining of chickens and watermelons was acknowledged perquisite of the Colored man. Its like every thing else; the white man is intruding on the Negro domain each day. May be that Terry was trying to equalize the "prestige."
Word comes from Roland Hayes, renowned tenor, that he has not now, nor never had, any intention of transferring his citizenship from the United States. Good common sense. Right here at home is the place to fight for manhood rights. To run away would be cowardly. Roland Hayes and his art can work wonders in beating down the barriers of proscription. There is in San Francisco, a rising young artist who bids fair to make his mark on the concert stage. David Sands, who gave his initial concert recently, impressed the music critics greatly. He has been endowed by nature with a tenor voice of sweetness, range and calibre. He was assisted by the wonderful accompanying of Mr. James Vaughn at the piano. The attendance was flattering.
There has been opposition voiced against the city manager plan as brought forward by the board of Free Holders elected to draft the city charter for San Francisco. It is too dictatorial in its provisions, says some. San Francisco will never submit to such a dictorship, say others; while the proponents of the plan argue that it will give the city a business administration apart from politics. The number of supervisors is planned to be reduced to nine. Elected at large: We hardly agree with that suggestion. It will not do any harm to reduce the number, but we doubt the wisdom of electing at large. Rather they should represent that section of the city where they have residence. Proponents of the managerial system claim that 400 cities have the plan and attest, not only its workability but its feasibility in giving to the municipality a business administration. The plan, as outlined, would give the supervisors authority to select the manager and dismiss him for dereliction of duty. There is much to be said both for and against the plan. After all:The people have the final say.
Henry Ford, automobile magnet, who has opened a factory in England, has issued a pronouncement, declaring his order that workmen in his employ shall be strictly "dry." There will be no tipping tolerated according to word from across the sea. The English workman has held his mug of ale to be one of the essential parts of his existence. It will be humorous to note whether English traditions or American dollars will win. "The aims of the Eighteenth Amendment might as properly have been accomplished through education as legislation", says Vierling Kersy, State Superintendent of public instruction. The advocates of temperance were making splendid headway toward the turning of public opinion against liquor until fanaticism took the bit in its teeth and run away with the idea. The theory that every proponent for change in the prohibition law is a drinker of intoxicants is all wrong. Many who have never drank are advocates for repeal or modification. They have deemed ten years with its resultant increase in crime and overflowing of prisons, a sufficient test of the "noble experiment. They see the fallacy of trying to enforce an unpopular law. The crime increase and attendant orgy of vice and national graft have brought about the reaction. When we have knowledge of a thing and do not use common sense in profiting by experience, we deserve to suffer the consequence.
Golden State To Have Football Contest
The assembly room of the Home Office, Building of the Golden State Insurance Company was the scene of exciting activities on last Saturday morning when promptly at 8:00 o'clock, the entire Agency force of the Company attended a buzakfast complimentary to the start of the Football Production Contest which marks the final "new business" drive of the year.
Every district in the estate was represented, and the participants got off to a flying start amid scenes that rivaled those of a U. S. C.—California contest.
Director of Agencies, Geo. A. Beavers, Jr., in a few well chosen preliminary remarks, acquainted those present with the purpose of the contest, following in the wake of which he introduced the Secretary-Treasurer of the Company, N. O. Houston, upon whose shoulders automatically fell duties and responsibilities of referee.
Mr. Houston, in addressing the gathering, displayed a keen knowledge of the rules governing the gridiron game, explaining in a clear manner their interpretations as they would apply to the Production Contest.
The President of the Company, Wm. Nickerson, Jr., was next introduced, and in a short, spicy address, well delivered, created much enthusiasm and excitement between the agents comprising the four teams participating in the Contest. So much interest was displayed, that at times the noise created by team rooting led by yell captains, was deafening. Jeff. Brown, captain of the "Lions," S. Stovall, captain of the "Tigers," and W.

Political Pot Pie
A meeting of representative citizens called by Dr. H. C. Hudson tor the purpose of support for the present bond issue, untold a unimmity or thought and purpose on behalf of the bond issue. Each person present piedged their hearty support to the issue and the Doctor was authorized to use them in any way possible to bring support for the bonds.
The overwhelming sentiment was to the effect that the finance needed to carry on this campaign would be raised by the members themselves. Next meeting was to be, at the call of the chair

CONCERNING HER BODY
TO THE GIRL OF FOURTEER
You know, Miss Fourteen Years, we have said over and over again that your health was your largest temporal blessing. In order to best preserve your health you must have at least a "speaking" knowledge of your body and its functions.
...You remember that in our past talks we told you the importance of your feet and other body structures in your make-up. The bones are the THIRTY-SEVEN-I. S. frame work of this wonderful body of ours. They are given to us for the support and protection of the more delicate vital organs. If the foundation and frame work of a building are wrong or out of time then the whole building is just wrong and no amount of decoration can make it right. So with the human structure the foundation or bony work must be straight and in perfect shape or the whole structure is faulty and weakened.
THE NEW STYLE DRESS
For years the wealthy makers of expensive corsets have lost thou sands of dollars because the corset was discarded by so many. Therefore with skillful effort and determination they have been educating the public back to corsets and the corset idea, and now, for the first time they come out boldly, and thru a local paper this week fashion declares:
"THE WAIST SHALL BE TWO INCHES LBSS" and goes on to add of course this decrease in the waist measure can be obtained only thru a properly fitted corset. To the manufacturers this is simply a jesite to increase the demand for their product. To the poor public—the feminine portion—it means physical disaster.
To compress the waist two inches decreases the lung capacity by just that much. Pure air which brings new oxygen to the blood is one of our greatest single factors in fighting disease. The oxygen from the lungs is carried to every cell in the whole body. This oxygen bathes the cells and kills thousands of germs. When the supply of oxygen in the lungs is decreased every cell in the body and the blood suffers, and the resistance of the body to disease is greatly decreased.
TUBERCULOSIS AND CORSETS
To our race especially the wearing of corsets sounds a death knell. Free access of pure air to the lungs is the only thing which fortifies them against the dread disease of tuberculosis. We as a race are consumed already with a temblor high proportion of this disease. Shall we as women be foolish enough to put on a harness which will draw in our waists push in our ribs and cut off our air space and compress or lungs?
LET THE MEN WEAR THE CORSETS—
Men are the style dictators of the world. They are also the manufactures—now they have formed this well laid plan for getting corsets back into popular demand; not because they are beautiful, not because they are healthful, but because it includes their dollars and cents. For these reasons above stated, Miss Four-Year Old, I wish that you and your friends would say, "Since this is a purely commercial campaign which will do harm only and no good corsets must be worn in order to fulfill the dictates of masculine style dictators, if they must be worn, why then let the men wear them."
Pleads for State Care of Delinquents and Tuberculars
Dallas, Texas, Oct. 15.—(ANP) The need for a state-supported institution for the care of tubular Negroes, to serve as much for the protection of the white race as for the care and care of Negroes, was pointed out here
THE MUSICAL WEST
The reports from the recent Grand Opera Association are interesting and encouraging. It seems that this has been one of the most successful seasons in the history of the organization. When one considers that the present financial depression has caused everyone to complain of hard times, it is surprising to learn that the public has paid three dollars or more for seats at an operatic performance.
The writer remembers a similar occurrence in Germany just after the war. Many people were starving and thousands were suffering from the cold. Yet the concert halls and opera houses were filled to overflowing. Very often these tapes brought their crusts of bread and morsels of sausage with them and ate during the intermissions. These incidents are merely concrete evidences of the worth of art as solace for suffering humanity. Life is made much more endurable when the sparsed with music and the allied acts. One is able to forget somewhat his miseries. During the early days of slavery the songs of our people were the principal means for the emotional outlet of a downtrodden and oppressed people. We cannot live without our music.
If then, we can bear witness to the value of music as an aid to our search for happiness and contentment, should we not conserve and develop our valuable part in our lives that makes us members of the great black race, that our youths be given some sort of training as a part of the general educational scheme. We should never consider it a luxury or a non-essential
We are happy to learn that some of our young people were able to attend the performances given by the great singers and master musicians it is only this way that they can possibly grow in appreciation and discrimination. No musician can fully develop his talent who never hears the performances of the world's great musicians. We residents of Los Angeles and vicinity are fortunate in that we are living in a community where hundreds of opportunities for contact with great musical events are possible. If we never avail ourselves of the many occasions to attend such events we have no one to blame but ourselves and the loss is ours.
Some day the Negro will occupy a more important place in the musical world. Just how soon this day will come depends largely upon us. We must work to develop our gifts and support those who are trying to accomplish something. The past has made, the future is before us and therefore we have only the present. Let us act now.
this week by R. M. Woods, director of the Texas Commission on Interracial Co-Operation. He urged the matter be called to the attention of the Forty-second Legislature.
"There are in our state two classes of people who are not only a menace to themselves but to the whole population as well." Mr. Woods said. "These groups are delinquent colored girls and the tubercular Negroes. There are State institutions for the care and training of all other delinquent girls and girls. When the white boy or girl a Negro boy is convicted of delinquency, the State has an institution to which they can be sent; but when a Negro girl is convicted of delinquency, she must serve her sentence in jail or she turns loose, society. The latter course is usually pursued and thus she continues to spread disease to all races and to add materially to our criminal classes.
"Tuberculosis, that most dreaded of all diseases, is spreading among all classes of people, and especially among the colored people. During 1929, there were reported to the State Health Department at Austin, 2,421 deaths among the whites from tuberculosis and for the same period 834 deaths among Negroes. The Negro population is only one-sixth of the total population of the State; therefore, it is evident that according to population, the death rate in 1929 from tuberculosis was a little more than twice as great among the Negroes of the State than among the whites.
"Tubercular garrus have no respect for colon lines, and in consideration of the fact that there is no State-supported institution where Negro suffering from tuberculosis can treatment, and the further fact that colored people are in closest contact with white people, it is not difficult to understand the reason for the increase in the death rate from tuberculosis."
Chicago, Ill., Oct. 11—(ANP) Severaleral thousand curious persons elbowed their way through the newest and largest of the five-and-ten-cent stores of P. W. Woolworth & Company in the so-called colored district Friday evening, when this recently completed store was opened for public inspection. It is located on 51st street near the corner of Calumet avenue.
The store was formally opened Sat-
unday morning.
Interest in the opening of the est-
ablishment had been greatly accen-
tated by the prolonged picket, main-
tained against other stores of the
Woolworth Company because of what
was declared to be the company's defa-
tion 50 year-old policy against the
employment of colored girls as clerks.
The picket was an outgrowth of the
fight started more than a year ago by
the milago Whip, under the slogan,
"Don't Spend, Your Money Where
You Can Buy."
Organized picketing was injected
into the fight and maintained for 17
weeks. It was supported by a corps
of street-corner speakers, who night-
ly, on corners throughout the district,
exhorted the people not to patronize
the Woolworth Stores.
The Woolworth Stores felt the
effect of the picket maintained, their
trade being ultimately brought
almost to a standstill so far as colored
patrons were concerned.
In the progress of the fight, the pickets came under the control of William "Big Bill" Tate, former contender for the heavyweight boxing championship. Under his strong hand, the picket was vigorously maintained.
The application of the picket was a new and extreme measure which entailed great sacrifice and courage on some of its backers. There were some colored leaders who were fearful of what its consequences might be.
Twenty-one colored girls were employed Saturday in the new Woolworth Store. It is understood that William J. Rand, manager of the western district, has promised that just as soon as these girls get trained, some of them will be transferred to the company's other stores in the district. On the baises of this promise, to be effected within a reasonable period, the pickets in front of the ole other stores were erremoved and trade was resumed, though not normally, at them Saturday.
The picket leaders indicate that the pickets will be now used against other stores were removed and ignore the claim of the Negro work-

A Golden Day For Golden West, Lodge, I. B. P. O. E. of W.
BY THOMAS ROWLETT
Stand back! Move over! Down in front! Stop, look, listen, oh boy! Bear ear music! It makes the old feel young, and the young feel like kids again.
Hep! Hep! Hep! And what's this? someone asks.
Why man, haven't you heard about the Daughter Elks of Hlawatha Temple? Well, I'll say they sure can march, and right in time with the music too.
And who are the men with their white uniforms, and with yellow and purple capes about their shoulders? My, don't they hold their heads erect? someone whispers, that is the famous Drill Team of Golden West.
Ab ha. We all recognized these boys coming now, with their glittering embroidered faces, and white gloves, and purple capes. We recognize them because we have come in contact with them at their social functions, they are the ELKS. Why there's Jim and Bill, and I'll be a—I didn't know that Paul was an Elk. That's what I call a awell lodge, just look bow proud they march
Such are the emotions, and expressions of the jubilant throngs that crowded, and jostled up, and down the Avenue along the line of march, Golden West, Lodge, and Hiathwa, temple, and their auxiliary turned out to splendor last Sunday afternoon to a cornerstone laying ceremonies held at their new temple at 36th and Central avenue.
Upon reaching, the sample, the opening ceremonies was begun with a prayer by Chaplain Walker of Golden West Lodge. The noted bartone Emanuel Hall set the great crowds on edge by one of his famous renditions. After this a "GOLD" box was introduced, into which the documents, after having been read, along with other valuable articles was to be placed, and then the box in turn was sealed within the cavity of the corner stone. Something of interest might be mentioned here: The membership card of a Brother A. R. Russell who was a charter member, away back in 1906 when Golden West was first organized was placed in the box, also along with fit a silver contribution of one dollar from one of the outstanding Passed Daughter Rulers, Mother Hicks by name, and last, but not least, the October 10th edition of The California Hagle.
The audience was then treated to a wonderful rendition by the quartet from Golden Sun, Golden West's brothers from Santa Monica, Golden West's own cornet trio gave a very pleasing number.
The audience then repaired to the entrance building to witness the ritualistic labyrinth the corner stone by the Excaled Rule Wing Sutton, who acted with all dignity, glory and pomp which manifests itself throughout Klodom.
The inimitable Percy Buck, connected with the Elks for many years in this city, and an outstanding figure, and official of the Southern Pacific Co. was introduced by Monroe Elgin a turnaround ceremonies, and he in turn introduced Mrs. Remound the renounced soloist, who gave a very pleasing number. Next came Mr. Roberts, the Assemblyman from the Sixty-second District, with a wonderful talk, and a brief review of Golden West's history.
Dr. S. M. Beane was then introduced as speaker of the day, and he gave a stirring address, with SERVICE as the keynote of his speech.
He gave worthy mention of the outstanding characters who had helped make Golden West what it is today, such as Henry Alexander, first Exalted Ruler, when Golden West was first organized with hundred members on February 15, 1906.
E. H. Jackson Exalted Ruler in 1918, when the lodge went under the process of reorganization, which was necessary, after the sweeping epidemic of influenza that had swept the country had passed, and left Golden West's ranks quite depleted. It is he to whom the credit is due for first visualizing the dream, which the lay members of Golden West had the privilege of seeing fulfilled.
Brother Burke Sewell, who so given worthy mention, and a big ovation by the old brothers who still honor his memory, R. H. Hicks, organizer of Hiwatha Temple came in for his share of applause.
The speaker of the occasion gave the clearest definition for love that has been the privilege of this writer to ever hear, and to have fully entwined
Association for Study Of Negro Life and Hisstory to Meet In Cleveland
Cleveland, Okla. Oct. 15.—(ANP) The Association for the Study of Negro Life and History will hold its annual meeting hege October 26-31 Here in this Western Reserve territory prominent persons of both races have been interested in the means of the association, Miss Jane E. Hunter and Alonzo G. Grace, the latter the Adult Education Association, having taken the lead in arrangements. Other citizens formed a committee of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History under the chairmanship of Harry E. Davis. Serving on it are such prominent persons as Dr. Ferdinand Q. Blanchard, Mr. Henry M. Busch, Dr. Charles H. Garvin, Hon. D. M. Marshall, Dr. Arthur S. Scott, Mr. Russell W. Jellife, Miss Jane E. Hunter, Miss Mildred Chadsey, Mr. Harold T. Clark, Mr. J. Eutler, and Attorney Alexander H. Martin.
The topic to be considered at this annual meeting will be determined by the procedure of discussing not what percularly concerns the Negro, but things of significance which will be helpful to both races. The discussions will deal with the importance of local history, but changing economic life, the problem of rapid urbanization, and methods for amelioration. Addresses will be delivered on primitive religious life of the Negro in its present bearing, the art of the Negro as influenced by African beginnings, the Haitian situation, the mental capacities of the races, the influence of the Negro in world history, and the present status of the Negroes in the United States.
ed Dr. Beane's talk one would have had to have been present.
Golden Sun Lodge from Santa Monica sure has a good quartett, add one of which they should be justly proud. They rendered four more numbers at the conclusion of Dr. Beane's address that really went over big—Look out Golden Sun, Golden West has her eyes on those boys.
The audience was completely carried away with Mr. John Hill who sang bass as well as Mr. E. J. Spencer, leader. Mr. John Adder, tenor and Mr. Jake Jackson, baritone.
Mother Hicks gave a short talk followed by Grand Escort, Bertha Triplett, who informed us that she was glad to be back home again after visiting Grand Lodge in Detroit.
Then came Dist. Deputy and St Asso. President, "Smiling" Gene Sorrell. His remarks were short, and to the point, and to the effect that "Since so many nice things had been said, that about all he could do would be to express his appreciation on behalf of the brothers and sisters of Golden West, and Hiwatha Temple as well as himself, for all of the nice things that had been said by those who said them."
The Grand Traveling Deputy, Littleton McDun, was introduced, and expressed his pleasure at being back home, and made an appeal to the members of Golden West to carry on the noble work that had been so galantly begun.
State Organizer Wm. Robinson gave a short, impressive talk.
Daughter Ruler, Lela O. Murray, a very little woman with a great big heart, expressed her willingness to co-operate with her great big brothers in putting over their mission.
The chairman of the Building Commission, Dr. Albert J. Baumann, was announced. It is indeed a credit to Golden West to have selected such outstanding men for the Building Committee. Mr. Baumann besides being prominent in Eldholm, is at the head of the Y. M. C.A. and chairman of trustees of St. Phillip's Church.
There was another character present well known throughout Eldholm, small in statue, but big in purpose—Past Exalted Ruler, James Mitchell of Golden Sun of Sang Monon, Mr. Mitchell has the honor and distinction of having recently been elected Chief Antier of the Past Exalted Ruler's Council of this district.
Too much cannot be said, nor too much praise given the magnificence showing Golden West Lodge. No a made in their turnwork for the ceremony or laying the cornerstone for their new rest.
JUST A TRAMP
BY DANETTA P. SMITH
Mr. and Mrs. Blaine were seated in the kitchen of their little ranch quietly eating supper. Suddenly they heard a loud knock at the door. Hrs. Blaine went to the door, and opened it upon a tall, broad shouldered unshaven man. So traps, told him to sit on the steps while she laughed a little lunch for him.
"Say, Ma. I talk to the man," interrupted Mr. Blaine. "You're quite a healthy looking man to be so down and out," he said to the tramp. "Why don't you try to get a job"
"Well" replied the tramp in a pleasing baritone voice. "I never had a chance. My folks died when I was a kid and since I I've been knocked from one place to another. My aunt helped me through school. I helped and helped her, but she died last year, and since then I've been going from one job to another. I didn't seem to be able to make good at anything so I decided to come west."
"To try the rugged, honest life," thought Mr. Blaine, but out loud he asked him where he wanted to go.
"To Hollywood" replied the tramp. "Say," said Mr. Blaine inspirationally and without heeding the trumps reply. "I'll give you a chance to make good. I have some work that has to be done before a rainy season sets in; since the boys have too much to do as it, I'll let you do. You can stay here a spell. To begin with you can start on the big wood pile behind the shed. Come! I'll show you. Mr. Blaine led him to the wood pile behind the shed. Pointing to a barrel he said; "fill that pith chopped wood tonight then come in and have supper."
The vagabond smiled showing a row of beautiful white teeth, picked up the ax, and started chopping a big log behind the laxine left him, and as he reached the door, he stopped to listen to the stenite in the ax they fell regularly and forcefully. He smiled thinking that he was doing a good term for humanity; for he thought the man behind the sheaf would surely make good if he had a chance.
Later that evening Mrs. Blaine gave the tramp his supper. Mrs. Blaine gave him two dollars for the evening's work explaining that he would need a little money before he received his regular wages since he paid every two weeks, then showed him to a room over the garage.
When the boys came home from town, Mr. Blaine told them about the tramp. "Oh!" aded Mrs. Blaine, "he is about the best looking man I've ever seen." Humph. "snorted Tom, "I guess that is why he is a tramp. I think that a fellow is a tramp because he wants to be and not because he has to be. I bet he's a lazy, shiftless, good for nothing——"
"Aw Tom," growled Bill, don't be so hard on the fellow. Dad's right we ought to help people when we can, and we need and extra hand."
"Where did he say he was going, Dad?" asked Tom.
assisted. "Lets see—He did tell me, but I can't remember" slowly replied Mr. Blaine scratching his head.
"Just as well that you didn't said Tom smiling at his father, "because most tramps are going no where in particular and they each have a hard time tale. Tey don't want work, they _____
"Oh Tom, you give me a pain," cut in Bill. "Why, can't you have a little faith in mankind?" I do believe in fellow men, but not in fellow tramps. Dad paid him for cutting the wood and filling the barrel. Did he cure a wound than that? "I don't know boys. I didn't go out to see. He came in and said he and finished."
"Well let's go see Bill." "Yes, let's do. Maybe you'll find out that all tramps aren't rogues."
The two young men went out. Mr. and Mrs. Blaine relaxed before the radio, but not for long; the boys soon returned; Bill looked rather disappointed, while Tom looked amused. ? "Well the tramp has gone." "What!" shouted Mr. Blaine. "Well he said quietly. "he did a half day's work." "Yes!" told Tom cynically. "he did a day's job, but I wouldn't call it an honest one. The barrel that he was supposed to have filled" with chopped wood is turned up side down with a few chopped pieces piled neatly on top.

Wilson, librarian of the University of North Carolina.
In the evening the professional conference will be formally opened with a welcoming address to the delegates by President Jones. Then Dr. C. C. Williamson, Director of Libraries at Columbia University, will pay a tribute to Edward C. Williams of Howard University, the foremost Negro librarian until his death last December. Addresses by Carl H. Milam, Secretary of the American Library Association, Robert Lester of the Carnegie Corporation, Clark Foeman of the Julius Rosewall and Tommie Dora Barker will close the program.
The succeeding two days will be devoted to round table discussions of technical subjects, Arthur A. Schomburg and Monroe N. Worrell two of the leading Negro bibliographers, will deliver papers Friday evening, and addition there will be talks by authorities on various phases of librarianship. Finally, a dozen library firms will place on exhibition in Livingstone Chapel the latest types of standard equipment for libraries, and publishers will display books in popular editions.

AN ANSWER TO “A PROUD NEGRO” | weale*omees. I
"Section wo neate California Eagle of October 8rd, Pasa.
dena Section, appeared an “Open Letter” signed by “A’Proud
Negro.” The writer attempted to criticize the audience—es-
Pecially the colored portion of it, and one choir director in par-
ticular—tor failing to stand when “Lift Every Voice” was-ren-
dered during a program on Sunday, Sept. 28th, at the Rose
Bowl given by the Pasadena Municipal Band and the wonder.
ful and well trained chorus directed by Mrs, Frieda Shaw.
Tam grateful for the compliment given to the Negroes of
Pasadena by the writer of this open letter for their appreci-
ation and inierest in all beneficial movements. However, I
cannot understand the writer's shock at the seeming apathy
which attended the rendition of the so-called “Negro National
Anthem.”
If you were asked your nationality you would readily say
“American ;” that you owe allegiance to the United States, and
from Maine to California the “Star Spangled Banner is the
official and recognized National Air. Then why a Negro
National Anthem? The-whole audience stood while the Mu-
nicipal Band played “The Star Spangled Banner” on the oc
¢asion above mentioned. This was the opening number, and
immediately afterward, Mrs. Shaw’s chorus gaye “Lift Every
Voice.” Think of the inconsistency, the lack of patriotism and
expression of ignorance which would have attended a second
rising and standing at attention on an ‘entirely different song!
Iam proud that the majority of our group saw this incongruity
and refused to make a laughing stock of themselyes in the pres-
ence of a large number of the members of the other group who
were puzzled as to what it was All about.
The anthem, “Lift Every Voice,” heads the list of my
favorites. Composed by two of our greatest Negroes in the
realms of literature and musie, J. Weldon and Rosemond
Johnson, it is one of the most inspiring and tuneful compositions
that I know, with a rhythm that grips one from the start and
thrills as you go along. It fits perfectly into the place for which
it was written—a rallying song for the Nations Association
for the Advancement of Colored People. Ae weit Y say, let us
sings Lift Every Voice” and let it echo and re-eche oe every
Possible occasion. But to call it a Negro National Anthem is
&@ misnomer, a mistake which many Negroes have made in an
over zealous effort to show greater race loyalty and pride with-
out Pausing to analyze the fitness of the title.
Ours for progress of the Negro in America

If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened
The Union met on time, with president Jones in the chair, at the Metropolitan Baptist Church last Monday. The Rev. Mr. Rolley, formerly of Florida, conducted devotions. Revs W. H. M. Dickerson and Porter reported acceptable sermons. There was a decided feeling of sympathy concerning the passing of the Rev. J. W. Brannon, who formerly pastored at Long Beach, and more recently at Redlands where he died Monday, the 6th, and was buried on last Saturday, the 11th. Brother Brannon was a brother beloved, and a faithful unassuming member of our Union. Many persons were introduced among whom were Judge Valentine, Mr. Springer, and Rev. Rolley. Rev. J. A. H. Eldridge was the speaker of the day. His was an assigned subject: "The Minister in the Pulpit." Our brother was at himself in the admirable address which he gave us, and justly deserved the hearty commendation which he received.
Rev. Mr. Dickerson introduced some changes in our Constitution which were accepted by the brethren as timely: But some doubted the wisdom of departing from the simplicity, independence, and authority of Baptist Churches, to copy the assumptive methods of Episcopacy, in a mere fraternal organization of Baptist Ministers.
Rev. Mr. Porter, pastor of Zion Hill Baptist Church was admitted to membership.

Scientific Approach To Negro Church Problems
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 15.—(ANP) The Institute of Social and Religious Research of New York is making an attempt through a scientific survey to ascertain some factual data on the past and present status of the Negro church with a view of eliminating the dead limbs and only carrying into the church of tomorrow the vital elements revealed so as to enable the church to more nearly meet with the demands of the present age.
B. E. Mays has been loaned to the Research institute by the National Council Y. M. C. A., and is to direct the study. As the associate director, he will have Joseph W. Nicholson, graduate of Howard University and Garrett Theological Seminary. Headquarters are being established at the Butler St. Y. M. C.

REV. DR. H. D. PROWD CALLED
On last Friday night, October the
10th, Mount Olive Missionary Baptist
Church called Rev. Dr. Prowd indefinitely as pastor. Dr. Prowd has for
the past six months or more been
serving these good people, during
which time the work has been so
marked that the Church decided that
he was the logical man to help not
only Mt. Olive Church, but the entire
community, thus the whole-hearted
call was extended him.
Last Sunday the Sunday School
had the largest number out, and Superintendent Bateman, and his associates were delighted. Dr. Prowd taught a fine class of young people to
the approval of all present.
At 11 o'clock the text was, "Pray
Without Ceasing," 1st Thes. 5:17. The word was with power, and the evidence of the Holy Spirit.
At 3 P. M. the house was filled to enjoy the service conducted by the young preachers. Rev. E. L. Green received them joyfully. Sister Flippins, the Captain of the Tribe of 'Gad' was happy over the results. It was truly a great time.
Next Sunday the Tribe of 'Asher' under Sister Jones, will have Rev. Brother Walker as its preacher at 3 P. M.
On the 24th Sister E. L. Green, leader of the Tribe of 'Judah' will have a great treat for the whole community in a grand Musicale for the benefit of her tribe.
Keep in mind the Grand Rally on the 26th. Dr. Prowd, the pastor, will be installed on that day also. Prepare to come and help us. Miss Elmoraine Jackson, the Church Clerk, and Rev. E. L. Green, have charge of the program for that day.

L. A. Church Celebrates Fifteenth Anniversary
During the week, October 5th to 12th, the People's Independent Church of Christ was the center of attraction in the religious activities of the great city of Los Angeles. Ministers with their choirs and congregations, fraternal, civic and other religious organizations all united in hearty greetings to this progressive church, and unstintingly praising Dr. Greggs and his congregation for the success achieved during the past fifteen years. Sunday morning, October 5th, marked the beginning of the monster celebration. A large crowd packed the spacious auditorium of the beautifully decorated church. A huge birthday cake just in front and beneath the pulpit added much to the beauty as well as to the spirit of the occasion.
To begin the service, Mrs. Mattie Porter, an elderly, highly intelligent woman with a charming personality, read in an impressive manner, the Declaration of Principles, the historic document which was signed by the forty-seven founders of the Peoples independent Church on October 3, 1915.
Mr. Geo. A. Beavers, Jr., one of the founders of the organization, who has served the church in an official capacity since its organization, presided as Master of ceremonies. In a brief and interesting talk he extended a gracious welcome and directed attention to some of the historical facts of the church.
The audience was thrilled by special musical selections rendered by the Patton Sisters' Trio from the Second Baptist Church and Mr. Phillip Waites, tenor soloist from Denver, Colorado.
As Dr. Greggs and his charming wife, who had just returned from their trip East, where they attended, the
BEAUTIFUL INDEPENDENT
National Council of Community Churches, entered the building and were escorted to the rostrum, they were greeted with an outbrust of cheers that developed into a marvelous ovation which they can never forget. The Choir, under the direction of M. R. N. Sanford, was at its best and sang that soul stirring anthem, "The Hallelujah Chorus," while the congregation remained standing.
Rev. Clayton Russell, the young man who so ably filled the pulpit during, the absence of the pastor, very eloquently presented Dr. Greggs.
The pastor, fresh from his vacation trip and inspired by the great demonstration which greeted his return, delivered with his usual eloquence a most remarkable message. The sermon was filled with practical truths and logical conclusions as to the purpose and service of the Independent and Community Church.
On Sunday evening the anniversary enthusiasm rang out anew as the congregation stood and sang to the tune of "America," the following prayer written by John Oxenham, which so adequately expressed the sentiment of the members of this church:
Thee. Break every bar that holds Thy flock in diverse folds
Thy will from none withhold full liberty.
Lord, set Thy churches free
From foolish rivalry and make all free
Let all past bitterness now and forever cease
And all our souls possess true charity.
—JOHN OXENHAM.

Bilbrew, enjoys the distinction of being one of the foremost directors and entertainers on the Pacific Coast. They were at their best in this Service and were forced to respond to many encores.
THE CLIMAX DAY
The Services held Sunday, October 12, furnished a fitting climax to the great Anniversary Celebration. The choir again rendered special music for the occasion. Mme. Sinclaire White Murdock, noted violinist captivated the audience with two choice selections. Mrs. Naomi Pharr, California's favorite contralto, thrilled the audience with the rendition of "The Lord is my Light." Mrs. D. L. R. Shackelford, another one of the pioneers presided as mistress of ceremonies and was very touching in her remarks concerning some of the events in the history of the church. Another touch of history was added when La Reeta Clairette, the first baby christened in the Independent Church was presented to the audience. La Reeta is now a young Miss and responded nobly with a choice piano selection.
By special request the pastor preached from the same text that he used in the first service of the church fifteen years ago: "Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace but a sword." Matt. 10:34. It was a very helpful and inspiring message that not only stirred the emotions but appealed to the intellect of the great audience.

SOUTH LOS ANGELES
Grant Chapel A. M. E. Church—Rev.
T. F. Jones. Pastor—
The large attendance at the early Prayer meeting was a signal for a day of glorious services at Grant Chapel. The usual large crowd was in attendance at the Sunday school. At 11 o'clock the Pastor preached the sermon, using as a subject, "Overcoming Modern Goliaths." The sermon was based on the story of David and Goliath. The congregation greatly enjoyed the sermon. There were a large number of visitors present. The Junior Endeavor had a good attendance at their meeting at 6.00 o'clock. The Pastor preached again at the evening service.
A splendid meeting of the newly elected Trustee Board and Stewardings in joint session was held Monday night. Other former members of the Board were present and expressed their wholehearted co-operation with the new Board to put over a great program for the church this year.
This Sunday will be quarterly meeting and a great time is expected. The Presiding Elder, Rev. J. W. Price will preach at the 11 o'clock service and at 3 o'clock in the afternoon the Union Quarterly meeting will be held at which time we will have with us the Pastors, and members of the various congregations of the city. As Grant Chapel hopes to take the banner for having the largest attendance at these meetings, the Pastor is asking every member to be present at this meeting. Rev. J W. Howard, pastor of Ward Chapel, will preach the sermon and the choir from his church will sing. The Presiding Elder will also preach at the evening service. Come and worship with us in each of these services.
Shaw Mission M. E. Church—Rev. O. W. Stout, Pastor—
Sunday school opened at 9:45 with a good attendance. The Pastor preached at the 11 o'clock service; text, "In your patience possess ye your souls." The sermon was very inspiring. At 6:30 a song service was conducted by the young people. The pastor preached again at the evening service.
Next Sunday will be Womens' Day. Sunrise prayer meeting at 6 a.m. At 11:30 Sister Laura Todd will speak. Special program at 7:30 p.m. All are welcome.
The dinner Saturday was a success. We thank all who came.
Mr. Herman Randall who underwent an operation at Dunbar Hospital a few days ago is reported as being dangerously ill. His many friends hope that there will be a change in his condition for the better.
Rev. H. B. Gantt, former pastor of the A M. E. church at Bakersfield, Calif., was in South Los Angeles Tuesday visiting friends.
Mrs. Bertha Henderson, 2086 East 110th Street, who was ill several days is able to be out again.
Mrs. Rickets on East 109tn street has been ill for several days and is not much improved.
Home building has been resumed in this community after a lull of several months, but from the number of new buildings going up it looks as if the present building boom will surpass any of previous years.
The disappearance of Mr. W. T. Qwens, 2110 E. 114th street, more than two weeks ago still remains a mystery unsolved as no clue to his whereabouts or what has happened to him has come from any source although several efforts have been made to locate him or to account for his sudden disappearance!
Mrs. A. M. Clements, 9709 Antwerp street, entertained her Sunday school class No. 3, a class of boys at Grant Chapel A. M. E. Sunday school at her home Friday afternoon, Oct. 10th at 4:30. All went happy saying they had enjoyed a splendid time.
The Junior High football squad suffered their first defeat of the season at the hands of the Gardena High school team last Friday, Oct. 10th. The Jordan boys played well but were unable to meet the superior strength of the Gardena boys that defeated them with a score of 12-0.
ELESA
Elesa lives on. "heart-break hill."

She has those roving eyes.
Elesa has a pretty face.
Elesa's called, "party ace."
Elesa has exquisit taste.
The some may criticise.
The Grimeses they are known to firt,
They are common as the dirt.
The Grimeses chases every skirt.
They are both rich and white.
Elesa goes with Bobble Grimes
She says in keeping with the times
She must collect the fleeing dimes
And such is her delight.
Elesa now, wears Paris clothes,
Elesa spurs her colored beans
Because they give her collar hose!

If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE- You May Never Know It Happened
In Memoriam
OF WILLY TEEMS, MARTYR
It was not mulodorous Georgia,
Nor was Alchem.
Though none of which lets Justice smile
Upon the Sons of Ham.
It was so-called Golden State,
The sun-kissed land "Out West,"
Where Willy Teems, a Negro boy,
Met his intimely rest.
A game of craps—a brutal Cop,
Three shots—the boy was dead.
Then came the trial, established guilt
Proged Weysunt, cop, the brute;
The judge and aid manfully
The facts before the "pugh!"—to what
Pestilential Prejudice had disregarded
Twelve white Trash.
For such they were before OUR God
Who loves us without fall,
Who does not draw the color line as a convient vell.
He wants but Justice without lack
He loves us all—Red, White and Black.
The brutal deed was sanctioned
By twelve Los Angeles Whites
Besmeared was well-meant Justice.
Where are the people's rights?
But why such hideous judgment?
Will Teems was ONLY BLACK.
Weep not, you sorrowing parents,
Your boy's soul is not dead.
He lives to fight the Prejudice
Before the Throne of Grace.
That God, the Father of us all,
May bless your much wronged race.
ay bless your much wronged race
—Los Angeles, Calif., Oct. 10-10-30
THE EQUAL WHITE VOICE.
A Matter of Fairness
The electric railway of California appeal to the voters of the State to vote "Yes" on Proposition No. 4 on the November ballot.
This amendment equalizes taxes as between the electric railways and common property, the gross receipts tax rate on the electric railways should be 4 1-2 pr cent. This is the same rate that the motor bus and stage companies now pay to the state. The electric railways are now paying 5 1-4 per cent.
The highest estimated average rate on common property is $1.79 per $100 of full value (not assessable value), the present rate on electric railways is $2.207.
Proposition No. 4 was adopted by the State Legislature, approved by the Board of Equalization and endorsed by the County Assessors Association of the State. There is no opposition to the amendment because it is fair.
The report of the California Tax Commission states that the electric railway "bear a disproportionately large tax burden."
The electric railways are one of California's leading industries and have aided materially in the development of the State. They employ more than twenty thousand persons and have an annual payroll of over $33,000,000.
Give the electric railways of California a square deal. Vote "Yes" on Proposition No. 4 on the November ballot.

Whip which led the fight, for justice ‘and fair play to the ex-

It took time, patience, grit and. determination to win this
battle, but the aforesaid had all of these virtues and then some
more. The Woolworth folks like Pharoh of old/held on like

In the matter of Luther Weyant who was acquitted by a
jury of his peers for murdering little Willie Tegms, the 16-year-
eld school boy who ran when the officers raided an alley crap
game and was ruthlessly shot down by Weyant; we of neces-
sity bow in humble acquiesance to the verdict. However, the
fact that he was acquitted by no means decides the issue as to
Weyants fitness to fill the position of a police officer. On the
contrary it shows that this acquitted man is wholly unfit to fill
such position. Who wants a man of the police force who has
no more tact than to blaze away and kill human beings for
such trivial offense as running away from a little two-bit crap
game? The antwer is nbody. There should be no hesitation
in denying him reinstatement and if the law requires that he
must be reinstated, immediate complaint should be made that
on his record he is unfit and should be forever dismissed.
We were among those who opposed the election of Mayor
Rolph as the Republican ncminee for governor. We went into
the primary and in a fair contest Mayor Rolph emerged the
victor. Now then we could not win our favorite, it is our boun-
den duty to support the néminee. We are therefore for Mayor
Rolph and the entire Republican ticket and from henceforth
will exert our utmost activity in rolling up a tremendous ma-
jority for Mayor Relph and the Republican ticket.

of delicious mildness, following a spell of cold, stormy weath-

But why ‘is this return of summer-like weather called -tn-
dian Summer? A plausible derivation is seen in the old Indian
custom of harvesting corn in this season. Another oer, is
that the Pilgrims gave it its name when they, were told by. the
Indians that summer ‘would return after the, it spell of ‘winter.
An interesting explanation is given in the “Notes” of Dr.
Joseph Doddridge, born in 1763, a student of the folklore, tra-
ditions and history: of the Indians and early settlers. He rtaces
the origin of the name to the fact. that the incursions of the

the arrival of winter, were resumed during the period of warm-
er weather usually experienced in New England in the late

Winter Baseball is the topic at this

coming in that there will be an at-
tempt made to stage another so-called

than White Sox Park.

thousands of dollars in the hands of
Negroes living here and also of players
who live back east.
Mr. Stapler the hustling mayor of "Dog City" at White Sox Park has given hundreds of local boys employment selling his luscious hot dogs; even Dynamite Jackson famous heavyweight championship contender sold there as late as last year. The ground tenders ushers and other employees cannot work at any other park with those brown or black faces they wear, but they toil, spin and gather in the shekels the year round at White Sox.
Chicagoans, are not that way. If they would forsake the Rosenwald establishments, but no they stick to the man whose money has made housing conditions possible there and has directly or indirectly helped the group in other ways.
With all due respects to the park, try to get it in the summer for baseball or ask for a job in one.
Loyal citizens in other cities will not attend anything where they are only welcome at times but we westerners have lots to learn.

COMED IN FOR WINTER LEAGUE
By Harry Levette (Official Scorer and Reporter)
BACK HOME
G
... Ted Lefty Shaw gained additional fame as star pitcher with Detroit this summer.
While barnstorming west with his team, the Nashville Royal Giants to play at White Sox Park this winter.
He sent his father $100 from his share of the proceeds.
They're here! Thos. Wilsons' Nashville Royal Giants and nationally famous heroes of the Negro National League!
They're here, to make their first appearance Sunday at White Sox Park against a famous Mexican team, champions of Mexico in a pre-season game before the official opening of the 1930 and 1931 Winter League.
FANS MEET CARAVAN—
Although at the end of a barnstorming automobile tour through the south from back east they intended like the Arabs to silently slip into town and steal away to rest, local fans, sportsmen and baseball enthusiasts would not have it so but learning what highway they were traveling, quite a delegation met their caravan of cars yesterday and escorted them into the city where they will make baseball history this winter.
Among those who met them were Joe and John Pirrone, Chauncey and Waters of the West Coast news stand Harry Levenburg, of the Tivoli News Stand and Sweet Shop. Hogue assistant manager of the Tivoli Theatre, J. B. Bass and Harry Levette of the California Eagle, Arthur Harris well known colored umpire representing the Umpires' Association, and photographers from the dailies and the California Eagle.
Judging from the interest aroused by the impromptu welcoming reception they received and the comment created by their appearance on the streets the ever present appetite for good baseball is sharpened anew, and fans will pile out to White Sox Park as never before.
WHY COLORED FANS LOYAL
Of course there is a large percentage of Whites, Mexicans and other nationalities among the fans who attend the winter league each season, but as there is naturally a large majority of colored fans it is interesting to note why they will as in years past stick true to White Sox Park regardless of any other park that attempts to use colored players in Winter League baseball. These are some of the reasons.
Colored Teams can play the year round in White Sox Park. Colored fans are extended special welcome and every comfort and convenience attended to, the year round. Colored men and boys form the large personnel of employees at the grounds. No other park in the city has year round colored employees. Colored fans feel that it is their institution as much so as the Dunbar Hotel, the eastside theatres or any other business or pleasure organization made possible by freely risked capital. REAL BASEBALL
But most important of all is the fact that they will really get their money's worth. Mr. Thos. Wilson park owner, bus line owner and leading business man of Nashville, Tennessee is one of the wealthiest Negroes in the United States, and it is his race pride more than anything else that has prompted him to leave his own fields of business and come west in campaign to make the world realize the greatness of Negro baseball players. It is such men as Mr. Wilson who will eventually be the incidental means of the National and American Leagues opening, the doors to Negro players, just as college foot-ball is open to our black "Red Grangers" and Duffields. Then watch
the black Babe Ruths, Gerligh Foxx and Simmons, file in to make great World Series greater. It takes time but it takes men like Mr. Wilson to hasten that time. Big league players who cross bats with the colored players respect their prowess and are their biggest boosters.
For instance in one of the opening games of last season Tony Lazari, Foxx, Simmons, and others who thrill thousands in World Series games were out played and out classed by some of the same players who will be in the Nashville Royal Giants line-up.
FIVE GREATES PITCHERS
A pitching staff the size of which has never been equalized will hurl for the giant colored team.
Willis crack pitcher of the Nashville Elite Giants who carried Chicago, St. Louis and other teams to the cleaners with shut-outs several times this season; Ross who pitched a 7 to 2 game at Yankee, Stadium, Sept. 28th beating the Lincoln Giants and making his team the Homestead Grasses the champions or the east, at the end of a 10 game series, played in Pittsburg and N. Y. 10.000 fans saw Ross win this great duel against Farrel and Rojo of the Lincolns.
Wright of Nashville Giants who has featured in some sensational wins all the summer in best form for the winter.
Cannon of Louisville the pick of hurlers in "old Kentucky."
Shaw of Detroit Stars, who is none other than our own Ted (Leffty) Shaw, who learned his baseball right here on the old home playgrounds and sand lots.

The rest of the line-up is as follows:
1-B. Bobo St. Louis
2-B. Buford Nashville
3-B. Creacy St. Louis
S.S. Riggins New York

BOXES FOR CLUBS
Baseball has become so much a social event that Joe Pirrone especially urges the alies to attend regularly and will reserve a selected box for any club that wishes to attend in a body if informed through the Eagle Sports editor on Friday preceding the Sunday game.
FREE SCORE CARDS
The same personnel will be in attendance at the park with colored officers and firemen among the city's guardians. As an innovation a new style of scote card so simple that any child can keep tally of the plays will be given free to the patrons. All should use these and keep them as souvenirs as they will show the batting averages and history of the last games each week.
As during the past four years Harry Levette will be in the press box as official scorer and reporter supplying the news of the games to the six local dailies, a score of suburban dailies, local colored weeklies, and 112 national weeklies of the Associated Negro Press.
For the first time in three years Jefferson High School football team won a game beating Roosevelt High 12-0. Four colored players Jorcan, R. E., Collier, R. T., Dugall, L. T., and Nelson, L. H., helped with the win; in that Edelson the present coach did not hold back the colored players as alternates as did his predecessor Jim Pursell.
Jordan was hero of the game following a sensational run for a touch down after a pass from Oliver, white quartar back.
Sammy Mandell ex-lightweight champion will probably have his wetterweight aspirations clipped early next month when he meets Sammy Jackson, sensational colored schoolboy.
Sammy is clever cool and a terrific puncher recently stopping Cobb, Feraci, Wills, Wright and other top notchers beside knocking out Bucky Lawless and gaining the newspaper decision over Young Corbett.

The 20-year old Samohi student is the cause of a lot of piring at present. In other words the Olympic is trying to get one of the big guns into the same ring with him. Jack Doyle who revived boxing before to create the four round game, launched plans to snap the 10-round business back to a higher plane of fights. The veteran promoter believes that

Matchmaker Hayden Wadhams has several outstanding matches just about ready to close for Olympic cards. Jack Doyle has given him the okay to get the big ones. The ordinary matches no longer excite the public. The club loses money on small houses. Tommy Freeman is nibbling on an offer to fight Jackson. So is Sammy Mandell. And even Jack Thompson might take a whirl with Sammy.
CHICAGO, Ill. Oct. 15—By A.N.P.
—Chicagoans who for sometime have been discussing the closing and probable opening of various banks have changed their conversations to football as the staging of the annual football game between Wilberforce University and Tuskegee Institute, at Soldier Field Saturday, October 25th, nears and the gloom which spread over the Southside following the bank closings has changed to a jubilant collegiate air.
Reports from the rival camps would indicate that Cleve Abbott's husky Tuskegee warriors don't give a rap about Coach Graves Big green wave of Wilberforce and that-Conch Graves's big green wave doesn't give a whoop about Cleve Abbott's Alabama Tigers, so there is sure to be a whole lot of football played on Soldier Field on the afternoon of Saturday, Oct. 25, when the two powerful eleven meet.
FRIDAY'S PREP ROOTBALL CARD

LAMAR WINS
That dangerous right of Bobby La Salle was evaded last Friday by Johnny Lamar in the 10-round main event at the Hollywood American Legion stadium, and Johnny was awarded the decision.
DUCK SEASON STARTS GOOD
Over 500 ducks were bagged the first five days of the season at Sweetwater dam in San Diego County a report to the B. H. Dysa Company said. The C. and M. Duck Club in Calipatria reported many ducks i nthe vicinity but that warm weather had been keeping them down. The change in weather however, should help the hunting situation.
BROWN TO GET TITLE SHOT
Newsboy Brown signed with the Macaisson Square Garden people for a title bout. He will box the winner of the Midget Wolgast-Frankie Genero championship bout being held a week from tonight in the Garden. Emmett Ledwith, Brown's manager, has been dickering for the bout ever since the Newsboy decisively trimmed Wolgast here in an overweight bout.
MANDELL GETS DECISION
Buffalo, N. Y. Oct. 10th. Sammy Mandell won the decision from Joe Tripe of Buffalo in 10 rounds.
MACK HOUSE FIGHTS AGAIN
Boston, Oct. 9Mack House, California heavyweight and Bib Bill Hart-well of Kansas City will clash in an eight-round semi-final to the Jack Gagnion-Con O'Kelly fight at Boston arena, October 21.
Contrary to a recent report Watson Burns manager of Mack House, Honest Murphy and other boxers did not seel Mack's contract but released him for a year. If Mack is careful with his habits it is the general opinion that he will make good.
ZORILLA WINS
Havre, Mont. Oct. 13--Santiago Zorilla, Los Angeles featherweight, decisively defeated Harry Wallinder on Havre in a speedy twelve-round bout Friday night.
Elither of these three bouta would pull $15,000 gates--perhaps better.
Al Fay is clamoring for more action.
He bears nobody.
Jack Kearns may start him with Al Morro. With Jeffries, angle back of Morro and the Kearns color with Fay, it would be a nice attraction.

Nationalista-Jackson
Bouts Caused Ha-
waiian Revolution
1980
VERNON JACKSON (above) caused a Filipino Boycott and a young revolution when he beat Nationalista three times at Honolulu. He is just back for a string of bouts.
Not a revolution with guns but a revolution of words written, spoken and "cussed was caused by Vernon Jackson local colored featherweight star invading Honolulu last summer. Boxing had only been legalized in the Hawaiian Island a year, and Nationalista former headliner at big clubs in the states was on the grounds, an idol of the large Filipino colony. Mr. Scipio Thompson had added Vernon to the stable of boxers headed by his welter champion son, Young Jack.
So when the promoters of Houston Arena there called for a suitable opponent for the fool of the Islands. Mr. Thompson sent Vernon.
The classy colored sensation was met by half of Honolulu when he disembarked from the steamer Malolo and interest was at fever heat. A week later August the 8th the Houston Arena was packed and jammed with heavy odds laid for Nationalista.
Vernon heat him decisively the ten rounds and the commission judges gave him the nod.
The bouts was so good fans clamored for a return match especially the Filipinos who could see no one but their countryman.
Then the racket started with the Filipinos threatening a boycott unwilling to abide by the commission judges and referees decision. After Nash himself reasoned with them they came out for the second which ended a draw. The racket continued with sports writers siding with Vernon.
The third battle ended in a decision for Nash but every paper in the Island stated it was rank robbery and concession to the Filipinos.
WILL BOX HERE
As soon as his knee bruised in a minor accident recovers the hard hitting clever little band-boy will fight here probably at the Olympic. For all his youth the veteran of over 82 fights including bonts with Goldie Hess, Huerta Evans and other stars he has what the fans like. In 'other words he is a fighter who fights.
