SLAVERY IN LIBERIA VOLUME 43 Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green heath—Psalm 37:1-2. "If he or she are samples of the 'Christian', then let me be a siner," is an oft repeated expression. The doctrine of a changed heart is good but if that changed heart does not show some marked change in the life of the individual so effected then there is some doubt in the minds of those who are considered among the unsaved or unchanged. But, says the master, "Fret not thyself because of evildoers." As the son of the most high God I came to earth and lived among you, that I might set the pace, hence my life, while among you in person, and as it is, laid down in the scriptures furnished the way, the truth and the light and no man cometh unto the father save by me. PRESIDENT HOOVER says prosperity is right around the corner. I wish he had said what corner. OUR OWN Pearl Lowery Winters will appear in Recital at the First A. M. E. Church, Tuesday evening. December 9th. She will be assisted by Stella Porter of Kansas City and other of our best local talent. Mrs. Winters has always cheerfully responded whenever called upon, this is your opportunity to reciprocate. THE YOUNG WORKER of Nov. 27 says, that the convention of the American Negro Labor Congress went on record in demanding "Death for Lynchers." Below is a clipping from the November 27 Young Worker': "The 44 Negro and 34 white delegates who attended the highly spirited and militant convention went down unanimously in favor of a most bitter struggle against the whole system of discrimination against the Negro race and for the solidarity of Negro and white workers. The convention proposed mass violation of Jim Crow laws and the abolition of debts and mortgages on Negro poor farmers. "Mary Dalton," one of the six Atlanta organizers charged with 'insurrection' was given a rousing welcome when she arrived with the Southern delegation of sixteen. "Discuss Young Liberators "The organization of the Young Liberators was discussed and the delegates agreed on the necessity of building a militant youth organization that would fight for the liberation of the Negro race and that would especially use youth methods—sports, socials, etc. A number of members of Young Liberator clubs were put on the newly elected executive committee of the League For Struggle For Negro Rights." THIS BIT OF Information without any further explanation appeared in the "L. A. Times." Wednesday: "New York, Dec. 2. (AP)—Household furnishings which the late Mme. C. J. Walker collected from many parts of the world at a cost of some $350,000, have been sold to the highest bidders for $58,500. "The Villa Leandro at Irvington-on-Hudson was denuded of its last furnishings yesterday at the close of a three-day auction. The $4000 twenty-four-karat gold leaf piano brought $450 and a Tabriz rug went for $1400. "Mme, Walker, a Negro, amassed great wealth from the discovery and marketing of a hair-straightening lotion for the members of her race." And we are wondering what's it all about—Conservation or Demoralization—which? Granger Will Talk At League Meeting Lester B. Granger, executive secretary of the Los Angeles branch of the Urban League, will delve into every phase of the economics of the Negro problem next Sunday afternoon when the Los Angeles Civic League holds its regular monthly meeting in the club room of the 28th street Y. M. C. A. James McGregor, president of the league, broadcast a warning to those who plan to attend to arrive earlier than 4:30, the hour set for the meeting, if they wish to secure seals. In view of the popularity of the speaker and the importance of his subject, McGregor said that it was likely that even standing room would be at a premium. "Granger is well qualified to discuss this subject," said McGregor "and we look forward to one of our most important meetings. The speaker has been identified with industrial work among his race for some time past and out of his experience and ADDITION OF TWO MEN TO STAFF OF THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE ANNOUNCED The appointment of Leon Washington as Advertising Manager and Loren Miller as City Editor of the California Eagle was announced last Monday by Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Bass, Editor and Managing Editor, respectively, of the publication. The men took their posts immediately on receipt of the appointments. According to a statement by Mr. and Mrs. Bass, the appointments were made as a part of the policy of the paper of keeping in the forefront of Western newspapers. "We believe in keeping pace with the times," said Mr. Bass, "it has always been Loren Miller our policy to add young men Leon Washington to our staff as the occasion dictated. We hope to make the Eagle not only as good a paper as it has been in the past but to make improvements in it. The men have promised their utmost co-operation with the Eagle and its policy and we look forward to a greater period of service to Los Angeles and the newspaper public." Both Washington and Miller are well known to the newspaper fraternity of the city, they having served in the capacities of advertising representative and managing editor of a local weekly some time ago. Since severing their connection with that paper they have been publishing, "Town Talk," an advertising medium. Town Talk will immediately be discontinued according to Washington, former business manager of the publication. Washington is a native of Kansas City, Kansas and was educated in the schools of that city and at Washburn College of Topeka, Kansas. He has had a long period of service with newspapers having been connected with some of the leading weeklies of the middle west, prior to his coming to Los Angeles, Miller also comes from the middle west. A lawyer by profession, he was educated in the public schools of Nebraska, and the University of Kansas, Washburn College and Howard University. He has been engaged in newspaper work both during and after his college career with the exception of the period of a year when he practiced law in Topeka, Kansas. Speaking both for himself and Miller, Washington expressed the utmost gratification for the appointments to the Eagle staff. "The appointments offer to both of us a greater field for public service," said the new advertising manager, "the long record of distinguished public service by Mr. and Mrs. Bass is a gratifying background for the efforts that we will put forth in our new positions. We feel the responsibility laid on us and we will do our best to be worthy of the confidence reposed in us by our new employers." Washington also took the occasion to thank the advertisers whose patronage had made possible Town Talk. He expressed the hope that they would continue their pleasant business relations with him in his new capacity. Oldest, by far, of Los Angeles newspapers the Eagle has always been noted for its policy of keeping abreast of the times. It has long been a leader in matters of civic and social uplift. The high quality of its leadership in these fields is due to its editorial policy. The number of young men and women encouraged by its editors is large and some of the most successful colored newspaperm们 owe their present success to the training received at the hands of Mr. and Mrs. Bass. Fortmer Eagle reporters and business executives may be found all over the country an d all of them are ready to add their word for the training they got in Los Angeles. education has garnered a large fund of information which is of vital interest to every colored man and woman in this city. We expect an overflow crowd!" P. A. THE MAYOR OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK PEARL LOWERY WINTERS Pearl Lowery Winters, contralto, will be presented in recital Tuesday evening, Dec. 9th by the First A. M. E. Choir. The program will be one of interest. Mrs. Winters possesses a voice of much depth and beauty. Proceeds are for the benefit of the choirs treasury. She will be assisted by Mme. Porter, concert pianist; Emma Smock violiniste, pupil of Bessie Dones and the choir. Tuesday night, December 9th at First A. M. E. Church 8th and Towne Avenue. New Supervisors Inducted Into Office Last Monday, at high noon, before quite an assemblage of the heads of County officers, interested citizens, the two newly elected Supervisors were sworn in and assumed the duties of their office. From the third District comes the Hon. Hugh A. Thatcher, and fro mthe 1st, Hon. D. Mahalfey. Hon. Frank L. Shaw proposed the name of Supervisor Thatcher for president of the Board and Supervisor Quinn the name of Hon. H. W. Wright. Mr. Thatcher after thanking the Supervisor for the honor declined, whereupon Mr. Wright was called by a unanimous vote. PETER M. Free Copy Tax Payers' Guide The Taxpayer's Guide, which contains a complete schedule of rates and legal requirements for 1930, has just been completed and is ready for distribution, according to Supervisor Frank L. Shaw. The booklet is an invaluable one for taxpayers and for that reason the California Eagle will give one to every person who will call at the office and ask for it. Those who arn enable to call may have the booklet by writing and sending name and address. DAUGHTER ELKS WILL ASSIST JOB DRIVE Speaking before the regular monthly meeting of the Hiawatha Temple of the Daughter Elks last Monday night, Mrs. C. A. Bass and Mrs. Lela Murray told the members of the campground now being waged by the Women's Economic Council to secure employment for Negroes in Los Angeles. A large crowd heard the report and pledged its support to the furtherance of the drive. The women were told of the canvass recently undertaken by the council during which the women investigated employment in community stores. According to those rendering the report most of the stores on Central avenue showed a favourable attitude toward the drive for more jobs. Ursging the Daughter Elks to enlist in the movement to spend their money at those establishments which employ Negroes, Mrs. Bass pointed out the advantages which would accrue to the race if a concerted effort was made to force recognition of the dollars spent by Los Angeles Negroes. The speaker cited statistics to show that the amount of money spent by Negroes is a large one and that if it were concentrated behind merchants who show an appreciation of their trade an immediate increase in the number of employed would result. In view of the high level of unemployment at the present time the value of this move was pointed out as very high. In behalf of those present, Mrs. Bass was assured that the lady Elks, always anxious to assist in efforts for community betterment, would redouble their efforts to make the program of the Industrial Council effective. The woman present promised individually to guard against the patronage of stores which did not show a favorable attitude toward the employment of colored workers. The Hiawatha Temple is one of the largest units of Daughter Elks in the West and has been active in community and civic projects. Mrs. Lea Murray is Exalted Ruler of the Temple. The Women's Industrial Council was organized last spring by Los Angeles women and has for its express purpose the winning of economic recognition by local colored workers. Since its founding it has been instrumental in alleviating the conditions which face Angelosos. Its announced purpose is to win economic freedom for colored men and women. Regular meetings are held each month at which speakers are procured to present some phase of the economic situation. These meetings are open to the public and have been very popular in the past. The next meeting will be held at the Los Angeles Forum on December 21st. SIMPLE FUNERAL RITES FOR MRS. ROBINSON SIMPLE FUNERAL RITES FOR MRS. ROBINSON A life time of distinguished public service was brought to an end last Tuesday noon when simple funeral rites were conducted at the Saint Paul Baptist church for Mrs. C. D. Robinson who was killed when the automobile in which she was riding was struck by a Pacific Electric train Thanksgiving day. Long before the hour set for the services men and women from all walks of life had begun to pour into the little church anxious to pay tribute to the memory of a woman who had given her life to the service of her church and her community. When the body arrived from the funeral parlor of Connor-Johnson the church was packed and the altar was a mass of floral offerings, mute testimony of the esteem in which her neighbors had held Mrs. Robinson. The funeral itself, quietly and effis- ently managed by Connor-Johnson despite the overflow crowd that sat and stood in every available space, was a relatively simple one. Choice selections by the choir, appropriate solos and a stirring sermon by the pastor, the Reverend S. A. Williams, constituted the church ceremonies. As those who had known Mrs. Robinson in her life time heard the pastor recount her many Christian deeds they The image provided is too blurry and low-resolution to accurately recognize any text or graphics. It appears to be a grayscale photograph with no discernible content. gave event to their emotions in an audible fashion. From everywhere over the country came telegrams and letters of sympathy for the husband and family of the dead woman. Allike they joined in expressing their regret at her tragic end. The moderator of Mrs. Robinson's Convention, the Reverend H. B. Thomas, was in active charge of the services and virtually every Baptist divine in the city was present to pay his respects. Seated on the rostrum was a galaxy of men and women high in civic, fraternal and religious circles of the city to add their word of appreciation to those of the Pastor. Included among those who spoke briefly were: the Reverends Rozier, Griffith, pastor of the Second Baptist church; Rev. Wm. R. Carter, superintendent of the Co-operative work of missions and Dr. H. D. Prowd of Central Gardens church as well as a great many other distinguished Baptist clergymen. Dr. H. Claude Hudson, president, expressed the sorrow of the Los Angeles Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. and Mrs. Edwards spoke on behalf of the club women of the state. The obituary revealed the wile range of Mrs. Robinson's activities. Born in La Grange, Texas, she was educated in the public schools of that city and in the high school of Fort Worth. After graduating from Prairie View and Bishop Colleges, she adopted school teaching as her profession and served in the public schools of San Antonio. Five years after her (Continued on Page Three) AMERICAN INDUSTRIAL COMPANIES CHARGED WITH CONDONING USE OF FORCED LABOR IN THEIR PROJECTS THE URBAN LEAGUE HOLDS ANNUAL ELECTION The Los Angeles Urban League held its annual meeting on Tuesday night at the Y. M. C. A. to elect of fifteen for the new year. This is the first regular meeting of the entire membership since the re-organization of the League last spring and much interest was shown by the members in the reports of the various officers. Albert Baumann, President of the League, presided over the meeting and opened the meeting with a few remarks concerning the work of the Urban League in 1921 under the leadorship of Mrs. Katherine Barr and traced its history u pt othe present eime, stressing the fact that the Urban League movement is an interracial endeavor. The annual report of the eExecutive Secretary, L. B. Granger, was read and it made such an impression on those present, that it was voted to print copies of this report and give it as wide publicity as possible. Fred M. Roberts, Chairman of the Committee in By-Laws, presented the report of this committee, offering a new set of By-Laws to conform with the demands of the re-organized work. The report as adopted as read. The election of Directors for a new year was the next order of business, fifteen Directors being declared elected as follows: For a one-year term: Chas. Blodgett, Dr. A. C. Garrot, Rabbl Maxwell Dubin, Mrs. Geo. H. Clark, William Nickerson, Directors elected for a two year term were: Mrs. A. Hill, Mrs. J. Kaufmann, Mrs. Mattie Nelson, William Bowers, Fuller Swift, Di. (Continued on Page Twelve) Cop Turns Cowboy; Is Runaway Hero The good old Wild West days with their daring, riders perched atop bucking bronchos may be gone but Officer Clayborne Smith, who guards the traffic at Ninth and Central avenue proved last Thursday that he still knows something about the taming of runaway horses. As the officer kept watch on the stream of traffic that passes his post, Myel Friedman drove by with his trusty steed hitched to a wagon. Frightened at some new fangled automotive contraction, the horse reverted to the ways of his ancestors and broke into a mad gallop, thus dislocating Myer from his seat. Sulting modern methods to old situations the officer commanded the passing truck of Pete Engels of 611 Wilson avenue and set out in pursuit of the fractious animal. At Ninth and Stanford the truck overtook the runaway, and in true movie style, that would have made Bill Hart jealous, Smith leaped from the truck to hand right smack in the middle of the wagon. It was the work of but a moment to gather up the reins and check old Dobbin. The house was returned to its owner and now it is reported that M-G-M is casting an eye at the traffic cop with a view to giving him some real wild west feast. New York City, December 3rd—That conditions in Liberia approach a state of virtual slavery for unfortunate natives and that those conditions are encouraged by the practices of large American industrial concerns that are engaged in commerce in that country is the startling revelation contained in a report submitted to a League of Nations sub-committee by a fact finding body, headed by Charles S. Johnson of Fisk university, according to reports reaching this city from Geneva and given wide publicity by the press. The report does not charge that any of the American companies are recruiting, slave labor or actually practicing the system but it does point out that they condone it by their policy of co-operating with dishonest Liberian officials who recruit forced labor and then farm it out to the concerns. One of the practices most vigorously condemned by the report is that of taking "native women as pawns and using them to attract male laborers for those who desire it." The report also charges that this foced labor is used wastefully and without any thought for the welfare of those who are its victims. Large American industrial concerns it is charged, use the native labor at a rapid and dangerous rate and as fast as more is needed it is supplied by dishonest officials. The practice of the government in conscripting labor for use on road and construction projects is also made the object of concentration. That the government of the country is awakening to the menace of this virtual slavery is shown by the fact that all domestic slavery has been lately abolished by presidential decree issued by the Liberian president. The full text of the report has not yet been made public and will not be until a date for its release is agreed upon by representatives of the League and the American government as the report has been submitted to both of them. Among the largest investors in Liberia is the Firestone rubber company which was given a large grant there a few years ago. The company maintains a large factory in Los Angeles but does not employ colored labor. In the general offices of the Firestone company here it is a mosaic and containing a likeness of colored Liberiana. Despite requests the Firestone officials here are addicted in the refusal to use colored employees although it does so in other sections of the country. GELMANS ACCLAIM MARION ANDERSON Berlin, Germany, Dec. 4. (ANP)—Great musicians, critics of the daily newspapers, and the elite of society, crowded a reception given this week in honor of Marion Anderson by Mascine Charles Cahier, white, one of the greatest of European women. The reception was held at the specially reopened Joel House. Miss Anderson, who became an overnight sensation in this city following her debut recital, was introduced to the guests by Mina Cahier, who emphasized the remarkable possibilities of a race. ____ Page—Ten If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know } Know It Happened : Friday, December 5, 1 iA a Dias LIS PY ~ BO eS Asi a DANCES —C CLAYS — GUNTRY CLUB ACTINTIES CAFES -BEACHES- —~ Gy | FLORENCE MILLS MEMORIAL THEA TRE OPENS MONDAY WITH “BILO”’: OSCAR SMITH AND OTHER FILM PLAYERS PRESENT * Bilo is back.

Upton Friday, December 5, 1930 PETER Xmas in Los Angeles is going to be a little bit tight this year and a whole lot of folks are going to get Xmas cards instead of presents. The biggest drawback to the Xmas spirit here is the cold fact that one must pay taxes with the money they should have for Yule gifts. Old man Santa Claus is going to have to sew the holes up in a good many of our stockings before he puts anything in them. It would not be a bad idea for us to write the word depression in the upper right hand corner of our mail—that would be self-explanatory. Mr. R. J. Murray, Grand Delegate from Local No. 1, arrived in this city Sunday without so much as a frostbitten nose or ear looking fresh as a daisy but a little tired from the strenuous trip and continuous meetings held in Chicago at the convention. With Mr. Murray's arrival comes the news that E. M. Graham of Birmingham, Alabama was elected Grand Secretary of the P. P. B. A. of A. to succeed Mr. O. E. Robinson who is now in custody of the law in New York City for misappropriating funds from the treasury of the order. Mr. Graham had as opposition for the office, R. R. Wright, of New York and T. H. Harley of Dalas, Texas. All other officers and Directors were retained in office for another term. It is thought that Mr. Graham will be quite busy for the next few months untangling the state of affairs left by O. E. Robinson. He takes office behind a man that has riffed the funds and covered up his work by a multitude of clever figuring which will take some time to be straightened out. We hope that Mr. Graham is stronger in mind than Robinson and that the affairs of the local will soon be adjusted. 1. One of the features of the convention was a Grand Ball given in honor of the attending delegates and a banquet. The ball was one of the outstanding successes of the convention and was brilliant in every detail. A program featuring the Central District Pullman Porters Quartett and the Calumet Shop Band will be a topic discussed by those who attended for many weeks to come. Although it was rumored that Mr. S. A. Coffin, former Pullman Porter Instructor would seek election to the office of Grand Secretary, he took no part in the many meetings and sessions that were held other than as a visitor, being contented to spend the most of his time visiting with friends in the city. Mr. Murray returned home over the Rock Island as far as Kansas City, where he made connections with the M. K. T. for McCallister Oklahoma and spent several days with his sister, Mrs. Lillian B. Williams in Wenko Ka who is the proprietor of a large hotel in that city. He was also royally entertained by Mip. Hattie Jones who resides in one o the beautiful mansions in that city at 219 So. Seminole street. Meetings were held last week for the benefit of the local members and the report was made before a heavy attendance of porters. MR. and MRS. A. W. STARKS HAVE BRILLIANT AFFAIR Elite Gathers At Popular Couples Warming One of the most unique social events of the year was the House Warming given at the new residence of Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Starks in South Los Angeles. Fashionably dressed men and women of the elite came and went from three P. M. until long after seven P. M., the hour which was neatly inscribed on the engraved invitations. It was a gala affair and will be the town talk in that neck of the woods for many weeks to come. Mrs. Starks made a very charming hostess and all who attended conceived that the beautiful residence is without a par in South Los Angeles. W. E. FRANKLIN WORKS ON PAT-ET KNIFE CASE--INVENTS USEFUL ARTICLE Porter W. E. Franklin has been spending his leisure time perfecting an invention of a knife case which intends to have patented as soon as he has worked out a few minor details. It is said that Mr. Franklin has just about completed a long and careful study of his product which he will put on the market. Some say that the future of Mr. Franklin's invention is destined to make him a rich man once he put it on the market. He has had several exceptionally tempting offers already from one of the largest manufacturers in the city. The Railroad (Matter wishes to congratulate this keen sighted young man for his achievement. MR. R. J. MURRAY GIVEN SURPRISE BIRTHDAY DINNER Monster Cake Tickles Palates of Distinguished Guest One of the biggest surprises Mr. Murray ever received in his life was If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened 847 Central Avenue try for exhibition during the world's fair in Chicago. Garey acted as interpreter for the tribe and relates an incident that occurred on the boat. One of the tribe ran amuck and bit him severely on the wrist. He has the scar to show for it to this day. By being a direct descendant of Indasmudle, Ed Garey got the name of Zulu King. The last word King comes from his great grandfather, whom and Irish Lord, then in power, had Indasmudle's name changed to, on account of the difficulty in pronouncing. During the Zulu King's voyage across the ocean he was waited upon by his tribe for everything he called for and formed the European custom of having some of his body guards put his shirt on. Last week his memories were refreshed when he had Mrs. Edmond Lowe on his car to San Francisco, and in her haste to leave she overlooked a $500 wrist watch which Zulu discovered. The watch was so valuable that he did not turn it in at the yards but took it up to the main office. Mr. Lowe who was stopping at the St. Francis Hotel phoned in and requested that he bring the watch to his suite; by this time the watch had increased in value and the King was glad that he had E. L. Apaud along with him to act as body guard. He was liberally rewarded for his honesty by Mr. Lowe. EASTERN PORTERS HANDLE DARTMOUTH FOOTBALL SPECIAL the following porters when interviewed by the Clatter's reporter professed that they were glad to be able to make the long trip from New York to California and get away from the severe cold weather.

I am told that a regular miniature banquet was the order of the day in honor of Mr. Murray's birthday. Mr. Murray himself having had so many birthdays that had failed to keep this one in mind, and little did he think, when his phone rang for an invitation to dinner that he was going to his own birthday party. The poor fish was in no mood to think of birthdays after traveling for many miles across a dusty desert. All that he really did know was that he had an awful appetite and he accepted the invitation from this charming hostess with a check and double check. You could have knocked him down with a feather when they sprang a fifteen pound turkey and all the trimmings from cocktail on down the line capping the climax with a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, layen birthday cake with some of the most delicious frosting a man ever laid eyes on. Some people are sure born for luck. Nobody knows where this kind of treatment to Murray is going to end, but we shall see what we shall see. T. S. Taft has been holding down line 28 during the absence of A. L. Norwood. S. A. COFFIN RETURNS Mr. S. A. Coffin, former Pullman porter instructor seemed very glad to get back from the ice and snow which he came in contact with in the windy city. Many believed that when Mr. Coffin made the trip to Chi on the eve of the big convention that he was going there to try to land the office left vacant by Robinson, but apparently Mr. Coffin only wanted to see his old time friends in Chicago. We will all admit that he picked a rather cold time of the year to visit at that. A. L. NORWOOD IN OAKLAND ON BUSINESS Mr. A. L. Norwood, one of the regulars who has been operating on the Owl for many years, but who has recently bid in line 28 has been in Oakland on business during the past week. T.

Anderson, one of the old timers of this district who operated to Salt Lake city for many years, but who recently has been operating on line 28, was forced to give up the operation of this line on account of his hearing. Mr. Anderson has had trouble with his hearing for some time and on that account was placed on the tourist car, to San Diego. Business became toob dull to continue operating this car to San Diego and it was taken off leaving Anderson without a line. He bid in the standard car but had to give it up. ROBERT BOURROUGHS FUR LOUGHED Robert Bourroughs, pullman porter hailing from the quaint little town of San Diego has been furtonghed along with a number of other porters.

EDDIE NASH NOW GOLF COURSE MAGNATE Eddie Nash, former Santa Fe red cap in Los Angeles breezed in town last week from San Diego where he is now located. Nash apparently has got a good go in the San Diego town and has purchased a golf course which he intends to make a barrel of money on. During the rainy season he has closed his course up and has put in quite a little of his spare time at the University club. JACK WORTHAM OPENS Daddy Jack Wortham has ventured in the business field in the form of a first class cafe located at 28th and Hooper, Ave. Jack's wife is operating the business while Jack makes his regular trips between this city and San Diego. I have encountered a number of the boys who have been by Jack's place, and they are all singing the praise of the wonderfully cooked meals which Jack puts out. It is said that D. Rosemond spends most of his time and money in Jack's place partaking of the wholesome food now considered the best in town. ED GAREY GRANDSON OF AFRI CAN CHIEF The career of Porter Ed. Garey, better known as the Zulu King is an interesting one as told by himself. His grandfather was a real African chief and his name was Indasumle King. He was brought to this country by Big Tom Preston, noted slave holder who made indasumle overseer of 1500 slaves who spoke nothing but their native tongue of Africa. Indasumle married a Cherokee Indian by the name of Nancey Wa Wa, daughter of John God and was raised at Albington, Va.

Temple, 803 E. 32nd St. HU. 3419 or VA. 1221 PLAIN FACTS TO THE GIRL OF FOURTEEN CONCERNING HER DIET— "As a rule girls are more delicate in their tastes than boys. Taking less vigorous out-of-door exercise, their appetites are less keen and more fastidious and careless for the substantials of diet. By the indulgence of this morbid taste, a large share of the young ladies of the day either actually become dyspeptics or lay the foundation for this disease while yet in their teens." NERVOUSNESS AND DIET— "We have no doubt that a large share of the nervousness which is so characteristic of American women has its foundation in these depraved appetites and the consequent impaired digestion. Imperfect elaboration of food lives the blood deficient in nutritive elements and more or less impaired in quality by the addition of the crude products of impaired digestion." IMPOVERISHED BLOOD— "The Impoverished blood is deficient in the elements which go to rebuild the brain and nervous system, and this portion of the body soon manifests its diseased condition by a weak and disordered action which is termed nervousness." NEURALGIA— "Most of the Neuralgia which is the ban of so many women's lives is, but the cry of tired improverished nerves for more and better food." HYSTERIA— "The same impoverished condition of the nervous system is undoubtedly responsible for hysteria as well as other forms of nervousness with which the young women of today—especially the daughters of fashionable parents are affected." VINEGAR AND HEALTH The habit of using large quantities of vinegar is in the highest degree detrimental to health. In fact is is thrush injury to the digestive system that the paleness resulting from the use of vinegar is obtained. "Dist will be continued in our next issue. URBAN LEAGUE ELECTS OFFICERS (Continued from Page One) rectors for the thre-year term included: Albert Baumann, L. S. Tenhette, Fred M. Roberts, Leroy Smith, T. A. Green. The meeting was enlivened by frequent points on the constitutionality of various motions but Dr. F. Tucker Moore, who presided as temporap Chairman during the election ably handled the situation to the satisfaction of all. The American Legion and the Los Angeles Urban League have joined hands to assure a joyous Christmas Day for the children of the unemployed this year. It is expected that the Elks' Christmas Committee will also co-operate thus assuring a mammoth affair which will bring cheer into hundreds of needy homes during the Christmas week. Co-operating with these organizations a Community Committee of devoted and public spirited club women will work throughout C. A. Hill. Jules Wolf, genial manager of the Lincoln Theatre, has already offered generous co-operation in the free use of Los Angeles "Community Theatre" for the morning of Christmas Day. More than that, as his personal contribution to the cause of charity, he is donating candy and usher service for the occasion. Final plans are being made to assure that recipients of the gifts this year will actually be in need of assistance and the Community Christmas Cheer Committee will make every effort to see that no colored child in the city of Los Angeles goes to bed unhappy on Christmas night because Santa Claus has forgotten them. their gorgeted umbil. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened Politics: National and Local. Before this is read Congress will have convened and the law makers busy at their task of grinding out the "Don'ts." Senator Shortridge will make a demand to stop Filipino immigration. The President has insisted on the Congress considering the entrance of the United States to membership in the League Court at this session. Many of the members of House and Senate sav that precluded the enactment of greatly neded domestic legislation. The Progressive bloc will force recognition of the measures of Senator Norris on the Muscle Shoals and "Lame Duck." The Methodist Board of Temperance has issued this ultimatum. "If the Republican Party wants to die and die as the fool dieth, the quickest way is to hedge on prohibition." It may be that the Board has not heard of the ultimatum issued Nov. 4th by some of the people. Better "page" Massachusetts; New Jersey; New York; and Yes, California and several other Bailiwicks. The President has ignored the protest of the A. F. L. and named Doak, secretary to the Brotherhood of Trainmen, for the Labor portfolio. There is a rumor afloat that Governor elect Rolph has had one put over on him when he selected Vandergrift to "sit in" on the buget now making for the biennial "31" and "32". The knowing ones say that it is a case of another Nellie, Pierce. So far, all other appointments have been met with a favorable comment. Of interest to many is the reported sale of the art treasures gathered by Madame C. J. Walker from many climes and installed in her Riverside Drive residence. An Associated Press story has the following. "Art lovers have been amazed at the treasures accumulated in the Moorish show place of the late Mme. C. J. Walker, Negro. (The capital "N" is the writers) who made a fortune in the manufacture of hair tonic to take the kink out of Negroes' hair. Furnishings valued at $350,000 are to be auctioned in behalf of her heirs." Too bad that the home could not be maintained as a lasting example of Negro progress. H. L. Mencken, editor of the American Mercury, is having his portrait painted by O. Richard Reid, Negro artist. The Editor says "That it is for posterity, when his writings are forgotten." The United States Supreme Court refused to entertain the appeal of J. M. Robinson and associates who challenged a rule of the Arkansas State Democratic Committee prohibiting Negroes voting in Democratic primaries. The Negroes in Virginia won that right. L. L. Blood has been appointed superintendent of the employment office at Los Vegas, Nev. It is expected that the work of the Boulder Dam will commence the later part of April. Negroes who anticipate applying for work should not delay. Should there be complaint of racial discrimination there will be time for action. PREDICTS RACE RIOTS FOR AFRICA PREDICTS RACE RIOTS FOR AFRICA Warning his hearers that British Africa is a seething hotbed of racial ill feeling, Julian Huxley, noted English author and scientist, told members of the Ebell club, an organization of white club women, last Monday that Africa may be the scene of serious race riots if the English colonial policy is not changed in the next few years. The speaker told his hearers that the primary question in Africa today is whether or not Africa will be a white or a black man's country in the future. Africans present the fact that the British crown claims the right to parcel out their lands, he said, and insist that the land belongs to them. Despite the fact that Africans resent the policy of land grants there is a vast amount of uncultivated-land in the continent which is fertile and which ought to be cultivated, the speaker said. "Of course the problem may be solved by finding out that the white man cannot survive in that territory, it is a question whether the white women and children can survive the combination of temperature and altitude." Huxley declared speaking of Kenya which he thinks is most suitable for white people. Contrasting the French and British policies, Huxley asserted that Africans resent the inequalities forced on them by the British. France regards her colonials as citizens and allows them a voice in their governments whereas the British class them as subject peoples and make them the victims of discriminatory legislation Heralding education of the right type as an important factor in the alleviation of racial ill feeling. Huxley declared that the British must select the right kind of education for the Africans. According to the speaker it would be a mistake to force on the natives education which would not fit them to make the most of the opportunities which they have. Assetting that Africa is a continent of mighty potentialities the speaker closed by saying that its future is in the hands of Great Britian and that that country must move slowly if its policy does not breed trouble for the next generation. Huxley is a visitor in the city. He is a grandson of one of England's most famous scientists and is a noted scientist in his own right. He was the author of an article in a last year's number of the "Atlantic Monthly" in which he discussed the possibilities of education for Africans The recent announcement of the Chicago University as to the proposed plan of graduating a student as soon as he knows enough to pass the required examinations, is meeting with much comment from other Universities throughout the country. Fortunately, the majority of educators are in favor of the system. In other words, a student will be allowed to take the final examinations' after a few months attendance in the classes. This system is used in the musical schools of Europe almost entirely. California schools require a certain number of hours attendance in the class-room reguilless of what one learns while there. This system has always seemed a poor one to us. And yet, these same schools require final examinations as a determining factor for graduation. That being the case, it leaves us to conclude that the number of hours in classes is for the purpose of keeping up the appearance of much activity, or, as in the case of paid schools, to swell the income. After all, the principle of final examinations as a determining factor for graduation is the same as that offered by the Chicago University. We have always insisted that the work required of the bright student should be more exacting than that given to the average student. It is no fair test to put a smart student in a class with nothing but the average amount of aptness among the others. Such a student will easily be at the head of his class and he will not have to work much in order to stay there. But we wish to view the new system from another angle. We have in mind students who have attended some school or other at different times, and who have been compelled to stop. After several years, during which time they may have been studying either with a private tutor, or through some corespondece school, or maybe just at home without a tutor, they wish to enter some University in order to complete their studies. These persons have been out of school, but they have been constantly studying. They should be given an opportunity to pass such examinations as they believe themselves entitled to. Why should they be compelled to lose several years in going over work that they already know? We are greatly interested in the new idea, that is, new to the schools of this country, and we hope that the same will be adopted by the California Colleges and Universities. and pointed out the dangers of the wrong kind of education. The Ebell club is an organization of white club women of the city and takes an active part in civic and community projects.

"We must all hang together, or we'll all hang separately." driving force of human nature is- not brotherly love so much as it is selfishness. Co-operation among members of the human race, between individuals, between groups, and between nations has always had its initial impetus in the motive of self-profit. Millions of years ago, our ancestors the cave men learned A. we men learned that it was useless for them to go out singly and fight the saber-tooth tiger or the terrible reptilian creatures that roamed the pre-historic forests, tall as the tree tops. They did learn, however- that by working together they could snare the tiger in traps, and that they could even repel the advances of their reptilian foe. That lesson, once learned, has never been forgotten, and since then when men have a task too difficult or dangerous for one to accomplish alone, they have gone out to find others who would profit through its accomplishment and who would help to put the job over. Thus began cooperation, and thus was born the beginning of civilization. Negroes in Los Angeles and in te entire United States are living in an economic jungle, and are as defenceless individually as our ancestors were flourising teir woden clubs at the entrance to teir cave. Casual employmeth, insufficient wages, prejudiced employers, all constitute just as real a danger as any tiger or giant lizard of pre-historic days. My little wooden club will not suffice for our defense, but if we can call in enough of our neighbors to help, our chances are excellent for snaring the sabertooth tiger and driving away the reptile. LET US BE CIVILIZED, AND CO-OPERATE! Is, this dealing in theory, and preaching an intangible doctrine of brotherhood? No, it is merely applying the rule of selfish common sense. There is not a Negro, recognized as such, living within the limits of Los Angeles who is not dependent in some way on his racial group. He depends upon them for money, for political support, for companionship, or for inspiration. Their success is his success, and their failure his failure. Cannot we figure out some plan whereby each one of us can help to bear his fellow's burden, and in turn be helped himself? Common sense must find the way. A committee of individuals who are directly interested in the employment field among colored workers is trying to work out a basis for such a plan, the details of which will be announced as soon as they are completed. It will be too much to expect all of us to subscribe to any plan, no matter how effective. There were some cave men too cowardly to fight, and they hid in the darkness while others carried on. There were otters who were cannibals, killing and eating their fellows as well as the beasts, and they in turn were eaten. Still others were foolish enough to try to live alone, taking their chances in the dark forests. They always perished. The great majority of us will prefer to co-operate, remembering that "we must all hang together, or we will all hang separately." Republican Study Clubs Making United Progress Coming on the heels of a striking social affair at the Y. W. C. A., some ten days ago in which they celebrated the first anniversary of their organization, under the leadership of their enthusiastic Executive, Secretary, Mrs. Bettie Hill, the Women's Republican Study clubs of California brought new glories to themselves this week when they staged an elaborate musical affair at the People's Independent Church of Christ on Tuesday evening last in the presentation of the Cefl Ensemble. The entire program of the musical combination was divided into two parts, the first part largely featuring the unique musical outfit in a notable collection of choral music; the moving solo of Philip Waites and the unusual rendition of the ladies octet being the only exceptions.

We wonder why "Tiny" Florence Thompson was so excited after the wedding. Maybe the big bronze man from the western metropolis can be the cause. And Miss Austin, formality seems to claim you as its own. You were a charming bridesmaid. "I do" smiled Ruth demurely as she was being sentenced for life—(married). "Peppy" will give us pointers in married life in a special volume. We just know it will be a best seller. Ah 'tis a ill wind that blows. The naughty breeze blew dalty little Miss Maxine Williams off the porch and broke her arm. We're terribly sorry "Mackie." Caught Alma and "Pep" posing at the Lincoln last Saturday night with two handsome gents of elite society. Now girls. Petite Virginia Corry, known to the gang as "Jackie" tells us she's going to try the big city for a while for amusements. Now, now, stand in line, no pushing. Little Ida Johnson is soon to play hostess again ses her. Now I'm wondering what delightful surprise next. Ah a mystery ses her. By the expression on Chaney Currie's face the other night, it told us he isn't used to many weddings. "Lon Chancy" says they just get a man on all edges. Me rather thinks Mr. James Palmer likes the Crown City now. Maybe Frances can tell us why. Bernice Bridges, tell us she has an announcement; we hope it isn't serious dear. Now I'm just wondering why Miss Bernice Wilson was absent last Sunday. Oh, one of these cupid quarrels we presume. And so closes the "Lone Wolf."—E. ELLIS.

A well organized movement has been under discussion for some time to have the Real Estate interest change the names of several of the streets, Mr Geo, A. Messick, the Executive Representative of the Val Verde Properties is heartily in favor of this idea and is only awaiting for the recommendation to be presented in satisfactory form. Such names have been suggested as Douglas, Washington, Bruce, Pinchback, Cuney, Price, Scarborough, Turner, Young, Dunbar, Pledger and others. While the names suggested have been confined to our distinguished men who have "Crossed the bar" there has been a persistent request for one exception' and that is P蛰yve. The change very likely will be submitted to the various State Societies, Churches and Secret Organizations who wish eral of these were former visitors and to select and honor favorite sons and benefactors. In the meantime any suggestions received will be given due consideration. Mr. and Mrs. C. D. Huse. 1145 E. 41st Street were escorting a group of visitors at Val Verde Sunday.

If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened Sacramento, December 2.—Governor C. C. Young urges the observance next Sunday, December 7, of Universal Bible Sunday in the churches through out California. The American Bible Society, an organization which issues annually over eleven million copies of Bibles, Testaments, and Portions in close to two hundred languages, has been sponsoring Universal Bible Sunday over a period of years. Thousands of churches throughout the United States as well as many Christian churches abroad join in this movement which was conceived and is promoted to emphasize the essential position which the Bible occupies in the spiritual life of men and women. In endorsing Universal Bible Sunday Gov. Young says: "The Bible has been fitly called the Book of Books. It is largely responsible for all that is best in our civilization. It furnishes the best guide and highest ideals for our daily lives. It has been an indispensible foundation stone in the upbuilding of our nation. These thoughts may well be impressed upon our people through Universal Bible Sunday." Los Angeles Baptist Ministers Union The Union met promptly at 1 P. M. last Monday with President N. H. Jones in the chair. Brother Hardeman conducted devotionals. The president took occasion to address the brethren on points of order, and concerning the passing of our sister C. D. Robinson and her companion on the tragic death that came to them. The Rev. Dr. T. L. Griffith was authorized to prepare befitting resolutions in condolence. A floral offering was ordered sent to the St. Paul Baptist Church where the funeral took place. Several brethren were introduced to the body and each given opportunity to address the Union among them were Brothers Broks, Love, Carr, and Francis, Miss Watson, a returned Missionary from Africa briefly addressed us, and received the hearty welcome of all, with the promise of a larger hearing at the Second Baptist Church that evening.

Thomas Pope and Evelyn Scott Pope in La Grange, Texas with God's most precious gift to those joined to gather in holy wedlock, a darling baby daughter who was christened Catherine Douglass Pope. Thus marked the coming to the light of day a saitned character solely consecrated unto God from birth.

D. Robinson. Prarie View State Normal and Industrial College at Prarie View Texas and the great Baptist Bishop College at Marshall Texas; afterwards becoming a teacher in the San Felipe Street school, Houston, Texas. From there she advanced to the Douglass High school, San Antonio, Texas and was loved by the entire school and faculty. She embraced religion in early childhood, was baptized by our own pre-eminent national Baptist character, Dr. A. L. Boone, then the pastor of the Ebenezer Baptist church, La Grange, Texas. C. D. was a church worker from the very beginning of early church life; beginning as a primary teacher in the Sunday school. From that humble position her church life was one of advancement. She moved upward step by step—higher and higher reaching for the mark of the true Christian's high calling. From primary Sunday school teacher she advanced to the highest office in the Womans' Home and Foreign Missionary work as president. Upward and onward scaling summit after summit to the position of Womans State Director of the National Baptist Convention, Inc. Married at Ft. Worth, Texas to John J. Robinson more than 20 years ago, they lived ever happy together until death did part them. She came to California, the land of the Golden Sun, the beautiful City of the Angles, Los Angeles, some 15 years ago and immediately joined St. Paul Baptist church, taking up her place as a worker always remembering the teaching of her first pastor: "We are workers together with God." Always respecting, supporting, and lending a helping hand to her pastor. ATED P fraternal connections she was a member of the board of directors of the East Side Co-Operative Association and the founder of the Clara Hulbert Republican Study club. Mrs. Robinson is survived by four sisters, a number of nieces and nephews, two brothers and a number of other relatives. The interment services, which were held at Evergreen cemetery, were marked with the same simplicity as those at the church. Conner-Johnson successfully guided one of the largest funeral processions the city has seen to the burial place where the remains were interred after short prayer and song services were held. LAST RITES Mrs. Robinson is borne down the church. Part of the huge crowd that be seen in the background. Catherine was a community builder a civic leader, a fraternal lion, a church giant, but above all a princess in the army of the Lord.

B. C. Inc. Ten years ago the women of the Western Baptist Association prayed to almighty God for a leader and the finger of Omnip- tature pointed to the home of Sister C. D. Robinson and a heart of love. This position she filled faithfully without a murmur or complaint in the name of the Lord and was re-elected the eleventh time August 3, 1930. Had a great desire to accomplish higher heights. Did not believe in working or praying without an objective; this year her objective was the Old Folks Home its inmates, the General Missionary and his activities. On Thursday morning, November 27, 1930 at 10:32 a. m., her spirit-eye was turned toward her greatest objective in this mortal plain of existence, the Baptist Old Folks' Home. When within three blocks of her most coveted goal, our own Sister C. D., that we all know and learned to love disembodied, pulled off her mortal garments became clothed in immortality and continued on to her goal, the mark of the most high calling which is in Christ Jesus. Thus was the departure of our sainted loved one. She leaves to mourn her passing: A husband, Mr. John J. Robinson; a loyal son, Mr. John J. Robinson, Jr., four sisters, Mrs. G. C. Sampson, Miss M. H.

The Sunday School under Superintendent Bateman just grows every week. His faithful helpers the Misses Jackson are on hand every Lord's Day. The children were justly appreciative of the splendid treat given them a week ago. Several of our grown ups are on the sick list, among them are the most of our Choir members; we hope their recovery will insure their appearance this Sunday. We enjoyed the rich messages sent from our Lord last Sabbath, and invite all out this Sabbath for a repetition, when we shall observe the Lord's Supper. Congregational Church REV. E. E.

Covers were laid for the eleven ladies, "Twas indeed amusing to see each lady finding her place at the table; as the place cards bore their maiden names instead of their mar- riage names. ‘The centerpiece was beautiful! Mrs. Beall selected a nfce pumpkin and sev- eral seasonable fruits and so arranged them on the pumpkin shell that every- fone acclaimed it to be the prettiest they'd ever seen. Just as the ladies finished cating this most savory dinner, they ‘Were invited out on the lawn to pose for a picture. All went out, anxiously awaited the arrival of the photographer, each one strlving to look her prettiest. In the meantime, Mr. J. B. Jones, who lives hext coor and_who received the gett flemen, ushered the men by way of the rear entrance into the dining room, each man to be seated at his wife's place. "Twas really a joke to see that several had forgotten the wife's maid- eh name and how, they searched for their places! After they were, seated: the hostess tripped to the front door and called the ladies who were still posing and waiting for the photograph- er’ When they entered and found their husbands in their places, there arose from all one great outburst of surprise and laughter! The next surprise Was that each lady hac to don an apron and serve her kusband, If she happened not to ave one, then she served the man who had ho wife. Lastly, the dessert 6f ice cream and cake was served t0 the ladies and gest tiemen together. “E’en though | Mrs. Beall has always served so beautiful- ly and cheerfully heretofore, it seems that this affair caped the climax. All felt refuctant to leave but duty de- manded their presence at thelr sever- al churches, so they departed, express- ing their sincere congratulations _ to Mrs, Beall and also hoping that she'll live to spend 30 more years in Cali- fornia and then some more.

THE DUNBAR HOTEL Turkey, dressing, craberberries, and everything was served to more than 1500 children of the Eastside's unemployed Thanksgiving day when they were the guests of the management at the new dining room of the Dunbar hotel. Tickets for the affair had been distributed by East Side social service agencies, the churches and the Urban League and it seemed that every fortunate kiddie had the good fortune to find some kind donor to enquire him to take advantage of the generosity of the hotel owners. They began to gather at 11 o'clock and by the dinner hour the street in front of the hotel, the lobby and the dining room were crowded with hungry children. Dan Shaw, who had active charge of the feed, needed the aid of two policemen to keep the little ones in line and get them properly seated. And when they did get sated what a dinner the got! Generous portions of everything just like there wasn't any unemployment problem at all. Not even the diners in any of the high price cafes in the city had any more or bitter food or service. Generous, and by the way, beautiful, young society girl donated their services as waitresses and served the food in a style befitting kings and queens and Leon Herrírez's Apex orchestra played their choicest music for the occasion. All of the celebrities of the community including Dr. C. H. Hudson of the N. A. A. C. P., Frederick M. Roberts, assemblyman from the district attorney, and a host of ministers were present to watch the children enjoy themselves and incidentally to sample a little of the food for themselves. The dinner was held in the new dining room of the hotel which has just ben newly remodeled and enlarged for the purpose of taking care of such events as that one. According to the management of the hotel the new dining room will rival the best the city has to offer in he way of first class places for dinners, banquets, dances and other affairs of a social and charitable nature. The new dining room will cater strictly to private affairs and is not a rival for any of the other Eastside amusement places. It may be secured by calling at the Dunbar Hotel. Res.: 1411 E.

Following the emancipation of the slaves, Clay remained with his master at Yazoo City, and only a few years ago came to Washington County. Dr. E. J.

Central New Los Angeles County Hospital to be Dedicated Dec. 7 Passing Of Wm. Allen Hann, Great Actor and Singer, Mourned By The Entire World Wm. Allen Hann passed away Wednesday afternoon, November 26, 1930, at San Jose, California. He was sitting in the dressing room of the Fox Theatre chatting merrily with the rest of the boys when suddenly he fell against the wall and went to his eternal rest. A man with a keen intellectual ability, an amiable and humorous disposition, and of such sincerity that everyone with whom he came in contact felt it an honor to know him. His life was peaceful throughout his career, and as peacefully did he go to our Beloved Father. He is sadly missed by his co-workers, the quartette with whom he had been connected for a number of years. Through him, the quartette has received and filled engagements throughout this continent and that of Australia, holding contracts of such duration never accorded any other such organization. His voice which was a deep basso profundo will no longer be heard to PING 103 PHO L.G. ROBINSON PHONE: A RAGE ENTERPRISE, OWNED AND CONUCTED BY REPRESENTATIVE CITIZENS. echo such beloved song of his, as "Old Man River," "Old Black Joe," "Without a Song," and others. He always added a bit of humor to his acts and in general he would virtually 'stop the show'. Men, women and children, the high and low from all walks of life who knew William Allen Hann respected him and loved him. May his ashes rest in peace. A true friend, a real pal and a comrade has fallen. Funeral services were held privately in San Jose, California. AVERT TEXAS LYNCHING Arlington, Texas, Dev. 10—(ANP) A lynching was averted today when officers rushed Sam Lauder, slayer of Policeman James E. Johnson, white, to the county jail at Fort Worth for safekeeping. More than 100 armed men were hunting for Lauder, threatening openly to lynch him, when he surrendered to a posse composed almost exclusively of officers. Arlington is located midway between Dallas and Fort Worth.

HAD HIS "SHOOTING HABITS ON" New Orleans, La., Dec., 10.—(ANP) Walking into a room Saturday where three women were sitting, David Elman, ex-convict, instantly killed Frances Johnson, when he fired a load of buckshot into her face and neck from a shotgun. He fled from the scent and apparently for no cause shot and wounded Ernest Chonecy, a few blocks fro mthe place of the first murder. Elman escaped. Police say that seven years ago Elman shot and killed a sister of his present victim. The coal man had delivered a lead of coal in the neighborhood after dark and officers believe that he was set-up by handists who in addition to killing him robbed him. A hatchet was the weapon used end the man's head was almost seized from the body. None ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` K.

As the tide turns it is of the utmost importance that we must support by our patronage those firms which show an inclination to be fair and give due recognition to all angles of their business. In the midst of it remember the slogan: "Don't trade where you can't work" or where you cannot receive recognition. Firms which patronize this paper are taking the first step for bigger and better business, which means an upward trend for economic Freedom. Hello! What? Where have I been? Haven't been anywhere, not even to church or to a football game. You know it's nice to be missed. Didn't know so many folks cared for sense and nonsense until I laid off broadcasting over EAGLE. Well, you can all tune in. I'll be on the air again every Friday broadcast'r over the California Eagle mike. What hour, you say? Any time after 8 a. m. Yes, I had a wonderful time the past two weeks. We saw Mr. Klopten of that progressive and growing firm, Klopton and Ebonow, the other day. We became acquainted with him when he was an employee of a now defunct furniture company that itself promised to be a shining light in the Negro business world a few years ago. We had a wonderful visit at his place of business and while I always knew that he as a real furniture maker I had no idea his ability to design was so great. Well, all that I can say is that he has built up a wonderful business of his own and it is well worth while to visit his shop and see a so-different Negro operating an unusual business in a successful manner. We hear from reliable sources that Dr. Somerville has won his suit against the Kronick brothers who wrested the ownership of the Somerville, now Dunbar Hotel from him. Just what the decision means or amounts to remains to be seen but to me it looks like a hot time in the old town tonight. Anyhow, did you read about Charlie Boyd and the 750 Dollars he spent in Sacramento for turkey for Thanksgiving dinners? Too bad that when a Negro does something commendable the press has to go and spell his name wrong. We happen to know Boyd and had the pleasure of accidently meeting him here in Los Angeles a few weeks ago whet he was on his way to New York. Say what you will it was a big surprise and a mighty fine thing. Time was when it was considered a disgrace for one of our group to vote anything but the Republican ticket. But times have changed and if you don't believe it get in touch with dear old New York and hear about those two Negroes who were elected to judgeships on the Democratic ticket. And then the Republicans want to tell you that the Demo- UNITY HEALTH LIFE CENTER Anna McMillan, Leader $118 Central HUm. 3980 "Ye Shall Know the Truth" Weekly Class Schedule Daily—Sunrise Service, 6:00 A.

Sermon concerning Hong Economics, presenting 8 points which were very timely and well received by an enormous congregation. The evening text: "Repentence" Acts 2:37-38 was inued a forceful message. A. E. The evangelistic meetings each Wednesday evening are growing more interesting each week. Despite the inclementity of the weather there were more than 30 persons present last Wednesday and a great Spiritual Blessing received. The terrible tragedy that stalked into the center our church family has so deeply grieved every one of us we can scarcely console ourselves, yet we must bow in humble submission to Him who doeth all things well. We will miss each of these two splendid workers, for they were both loyal and faithful indeed. "We loved them, the Master loved them best."

Page-Sevea If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened EDITORIAL PAGE A REAL THANKSGIVING SPIRIT— Old timers around and about Sacramento knew Tom Bowman. He used to prepare the linches in saloons—That was before the Volstead days, and worked in barber shops. Tom went hungry on Thanksgiving Day in Sacramento and never forgot it. He left Sacramento and after varied experiences settled at Fall River, Mass. He started business and became prosperous. Something opened the brain cell, where remembrance of that hungry day in Sacramento had been stored for years, and he sorrowed for the many who might be in like position, so he wired $750, seven hundred and fifty dollars, to feed them. Arrangements were made with the various restaurants to feed 1500 unemployed persons. Tickets were issued by the West End Charity Club. This organization composed of some of the finest men in Sacramento. Their names might not appear in the "Who's Who" but their deeds of unostentatious charity will be recorded in the "Great Book." No person, what ever race, creed or color was denied. THIS TOM BOWMAN IS A NEGRO. Postmaster, Harry L. Todd, who disposed of some 1800 or 1900 Christmas holiday jobs, had some peculiar experiences in their allotment. His idea was to give the jobs to men who were out of employment. Preference was given to men with families and applicants for jobs were quizzed according. There were many applicants whose necessities were not pressing, but for downright human selfishness the fellow who is drawing a pension of $130, one hundred and thirty dollars per month from the city, takes the medal. Of course his application for a job was turned down without question. The manliness of a youth obtained a place for him. "Mr. Todd" I know that you are taking married men in preference, and ordinarily I would not ask for any favors. But my mother is trying to take care of us 10 children and I am trying to help. I've got to have a job." Said the boy. Yes: He got it. Strange: But we did not notice any Negro applicants. * * * * * * * * * * San Francisco has been given a new metropolitan area. The new ranking has been fixed by the federal bureau of census. It will picture more accurately the potentialities of the bay area. Especially; will this he of value to industrialists from other states who contemplate establishment of industrial sites in this vicinity. The metropolitan area will include San Francisco, San Mateo, Alameda, Contra Costa and Marin counties. Another important move is the proposed consolidation of San Francisco and San Mateo counties. Definite plans for consolidation were sub- One good bundle deserves another, it seems. At least it invariably happens that when one bundle must be carried away or brought to the house there are others to occupy the attention of the other arm. GIFTS "The gift derives its value from the rank of the giver," someone wrote long ago a falsehood. "In giving," another old pronouncement goes, "a man receives more than he gives and the more in proportion to the value of the thing given"; and while true in so far as it repeats the more ancient saying that 'tis more blessed to give than to receive, is, in its remainder, transparently unworthy. For was there not the widow who cast into the treasury of the temple at Jerusalem more than all they that were casting into the treasury a fathering—all her living? By the teaching accounted Divine, the teaching commemorated and acclaimed on Christmas Day, her's was the greatest gift of all. Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote: "The gift, to be true, must be the flowing of the giver unto me, correspondent to my flowing unto him." That is said to reach the heights of clean thinking. "For the gift without the giver is bare." Quite obviously, if profit there may also be loss if minds a bit too sharp pursue thought upon gifts and giving too eagerly. The ancient error of looking the gift-horse in the mouth is one pitfall. Doubting giftes did that to see how old the horses were and why the givers were giving them away. All the analyses of giving demand, as a duty, discreet restraint. Away with the thought, too, that Christmas giving is a game of trading blind. Gifts and giving have been a stimulant of thought among the poets and the thinkers since the beginnings of literature. A modern writer who appropriates philosophy es his particular dish declares that a death in the family is a provocation to philosophy." Little less than that is a gift, whether from a member of ahe family or from someone else. THE SEASON OF DANGERS The proverbial thin air is not the only thing upon which should fall the warnings which annually come at this time of the year from watchful family physicians and public health officers. It would pay all to heed them and heed them well. During the changeable days of autumn and winter people should be careful in their habits. Influenza in epidemic form can make its appearance with startling auddenness under the proper combination of atmosphere conditions and human carelessness. And the common cold thrives on the same sort of combination. Certain rules are almost essential in fall and winter if one is to escape these ills, which are always annoying and often serious. These simple rules are dress sensibly, eat carefully, sleep regularly and make sure body poisson are being thrown off properly. Where body resistance is strong weather changes are not to be feared. No other three human maladies cause as much discomfort and economic loss as influenza, grippe and colds. Through them millions of production days are lost between November 1st and June 1st, virtually every employed man and woman losing at least one day's work a year because of one or the other of them. Could medical science exterminate the germs responsible for these human disorders it would thereby bestow upon mankind the greatest of all benefactions. But while waiting for this long-hoped-for benefaction the public should make the fullest use of known methods of prevention. Earthworms think, says a naturalist, thus further disqalifying them, in some sections, for duty on the jury. The chestnut is facing extinction, says a forestry expert. This is of importance to musical comedy authors, all owners of collegiate flivvers, and worms. Page----Eight ADJUSTING DIFFERENCES So long at there are different kinds of men there will be differences of personal opinion. Difference of opinion is, more often than not, a healthful sign. It indicates a determination to think out of trying situations unhampered by traditions or by what is popular at the moment, and that is the way to progress. Differing from our fellows becomes dangerous only when we evince a determination to cling to personal opinions at the cost of the public good and for the sake of proving ourselves right. It has ceased to be a difference of opinion by that time and has degenerated into mere personal quarreling. Most of us have had the experience of differing violently from our fellows and even going to the length of severing friendship or that account only to find that we had occasion to work with that same friend at a later date. When the time does come to adjust difficulties after a disagreement the most sensible thing to do is to meet on common ground and face the future and its implications unhampered by the rancor of the past. Because the Negro constitutes a minority group in America and is beset on all sides with problems there are bound to arise differences between some of us. The best method to meet certain emergencies will always be in doubt, but the fact remains that all of us are united in one effort to raise the standard of the race. That goal is a long distance in the future and it is going to require a united front to attain it. If we divide our strength because we have not always been able to agree with our neighbor on matters of minor importance, we are going to find that the goal recedes instead of drawing closer. Nor can we reconcile our differences in an atmosphere of heated controversy, there must be a calm willingness to discuss each situation in a thoughtful manner. So long as we maintain a belligerent attitude toward our former enemies we are going to remain enemies instead of friends that we ought to be. Charges only lead to counter charges. Angelenos have a great many racial problems that are knotty and almost defy solution. Every citizen of this city is anxious to see those problems solved, and it is equally true that each person wants to do his utmost to aid in their solution. It is a good time for all of us to lay aside our differences and come together to work for our common good, political, economic and civic. INDEPENDENCE OR SLAVERY? For the past six months the women of this city have been banded together in a Women's Industrial Council for the express purpose of helping Angelenos better their economic condition. The ladies have not met with the success that their efforts have deserved. Back of that lack of more success lies the old story of the failure of the Negro to co-operate. Those who should have been the most interested in the success of this movement to secure more jobs for the Negro have displayed an apathy that is discouraging. Nor has this lack of co-operation been confined to those who are without the benefits of education and training. Professional men, fortified behind a successful practice, have refused to lend their aid to the movement. Selfishness, if nothing more, should have dictated that they lead in a fight for more employment for their own success depends directly on how many jobs the rest of us can find. If the rest of us can find employment we will have the money with which to reward professional men for their services and if we are unemployed no amount of pleading in the name of race pride can get our support for them. Jobs make money and the rest of us must have money if we are to support our professional men. Theirs is the responsibility for making the first move. Quite aside from the selfish motives that professional men ought to have in the success of the movement is the fact that they have been trained to take their place as leaders of the race. They constantly arrogate to themselves that leadership but to make it more than an empty fiction they must prove that they are willing to lead. Self confessed leadership that stands idly by while the men in the ranks suffer is not leadership at all; it is just so much hindrance to progress. And it must not be forgotten that race prejudice as it exists in this country prevents any Negro from rising above his race. Either he helps the race to rise or he remains in the rut to which an unfortunate condition has consigned the Negro. However, the rest of us are not without blame for our present economic plight. We waste our time grumbling at our condition and those who obstruct us. It is well to remember that the only thing that stands between the Negro in this city and a great many more jobs is his willingness to demand them. Demand is something more than mere words, it is a spirit of determination and sacrifice coupled with a tenacity of purpose that will not be dismaved at seeming rebuffs. With unemployment at a new high level it is a good time for all of us, professional men and laborers alike, to band ourselves together and resolve to make a supreme effort to get those jobs we should and must have. One month of concentrated effort will work a remarkable change. Surely the welfare of ourselves and those who will come after us is worth all that we have to give. The difference between economic freedom and slavery is the difference between co-operation and continued apathy toward efforts at our own betterment. Bundles more bundles and still more bundles. Bundles, rather than people, will be walking the streets from now until Christmas. There is more truth in the cartoon picturing the typical man bringing up the rear like an overloaded clothes tree. Bundle time begins about six weeks before Christmas and ends after the gifts that do not fit or have been exchanged at the store. A bundle is an indefinable mass done up in brown paper and tied with string. It exists for the purpose of being carried. Bundle may be divided roughly into two classes, those that are forever coming undone and those that seem utterly incapable of coming undone. Bundles are such frequent incidents in life that no well-directed household would think of going without a supply of brown paper and string for doing them up. It is a curious fact, however, that no matter how large and miscellaneous the supply, it is rarely ever possible to find just the right size sheet of paper, while the string is almost invariably too short. A parcel is a bundle trying to put on airs. Persons who make up bundles hold the belief that the greater the number of knots the stronger the bundle. On the other hand, persons who open boundles would as soon spend principal as cut a knot. Between the two the labor expended annually in the United States in tying and untying bundles would be sufficient to build a broad highway from Portland Maine, to Portland, Oregon. COMMENTS W. J. WHEATON SPECIAL ARTICLES mitted by the Peninsular supervisors to the Board of Freeholders elected to draft a new charter for the city and county of San Francisco. Should both counties vote for the consolidation the plan is; the entire area would assume the "City and County of San Francisco. Of the indebtedness, the consolidated area would assume the debts of San Mateo county. Each incorporated city in the consolidated area, excluding San Francisco, would become a borough locally governed. Arrangements for representation on commissions and a unified general tax. This move shows a general reversing of opinion, as to county consolidation on the part of San Mateo county. It will come: Why not now? Reapportionment of the lower house of Congress as announced by the President has caused a joyous feeling in the camps of the Republican party and among the "Wets". The increase of representation in certain states (Representation in the electoral college being based on the number of representatives from each state) gives a preponderance on the side of the Republican states. Those states have gained 21 votes while the Democratic States have made a gain of 5 only. The "Wets" rejoice because these gains have been in states with the greatest urban population. Th cities generally favor modification or repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment. Of course: The several state legislatures are going to have a time agreeing on reapportionment. Political interests will be the cause of many bitter fights. Georgia will lose two of its dozen members. There are threats of retaliation too: Certain of the states who are supposed to gain their increase by the count of aliens and whose count is being questioned by other sections, threaten those sections with retaliation and a reduction further of representation in denying their right to count as part of their population Negroes to whom they deny the right of franchise. Its ill wind that blows nobody good. * * * * * * * * A leaf from the Diary. Thanksgiving Day: Up betimes—whatever that means—when the telephone bell tinkled. A friendly voice informed us that we should not forget the dinner date. A pleasing rememberance after ablutions took a repast of bread and milk. Resumed a position of relaxation prior to a stroll, which was taken after a dose of tonic preparatory to and in anticipation of the "good eats" to come. On my way met an old acquaintance. While we were talking over the latest appointments made, or in the making, by the Governor elect, were approached by an ardent worker in one of the churches who importuned us to purchase a dinner ticket, said dinner to be given to buy the preacher a new suit, or something. After scanning the suit that we had used for a body covering, to these many months! The feeling "that charity begins at home" or thereabout, impelled us to give a tighter clinch on the two bits snugly enconced in the corner of our trousers pocket. Friend gave the lady two bits. As we were walking away friend cluched our sore arm. "Say Bill!" I gave up my last "jit"—whatever that is—loan me two bits." Hold released on my two bits and walked to the dinner. After a glorious feed meandered down town. Heard music and went inside. While chatering with the man selling tickets two youths walked up and asked for a reduction rate to enter. Turned their pockets inside out. Produced one dollar and one dime between them. Ticket man was tender hearted and made up the lacking 65 cents. Up comes a friend who owns an automobile. Bummed a ride home, and to bed. Why will they give the last dime to buy preachers suits and do the "hoof act?" Take a think! * * * * * * * * Have you ever noticed how many there are that never acquire the habit of straight thinking? Their thinking is like the crabs walk; sideways. We have listened so often to the dissertations of Race political leaders; religious leaders, and whatnots. Listened and waited for one sentence of a constructive idea, and listened and waited in vain. Criticism: There has been; but not of constructive character. It was in a group, of asserted leaders in a community, that it was casually mentioned of the splendid work being accomplished by the programme outlined for the work of an association maintained for the training and recreation of youths. The comments of the group were many, and the criticisms profuse, but they were mainly destructive. One thought predominated: The atmosphere of the Association was not religious. There was no "spiritualism." There is in the Association a club of young women who hold a monthly Forum. Subjects of racial interests are discussed, and emphasis put on the talks pertaining to racial progress. The meeting are delightful in their originality and they are the portent of greater things. Do not be discouraged young ladies. The seed now being sown will blossom. Your soil may now be barren, but fertility will come with patient tilling. In yourselves there is solendid possibilities for the future. In your leader you have a resourceful captain. (Continued on Page Twelve) SONG OF AFRICA Dark Africa doth sing a song; At first 'twas faint, but now 'tis strong. This hidden, submerged, secret strain Will some day break the country's chain. The chant is whispered soft and low, Is sung by tribesmen 'round the glow, It reaches hunters on the plain, The mountains hear the weird refrain. This muffled thunder travels wide, 'Tis constant as the flowing tide— A murmuring distinct to all Whose ears will listen to the call. Hark, hear the strain, the melody, It fills the listeners with glee. It causes faint hearts to grow strong And lend their voices to the throng. So join the tune, Ye Afric folk: Some day 'twill help to break the yoke. O, chant it loud, Ye Dusky Braves. Sing for the day your spirit craves. Make reeds and string but softly croon, On talking drums beat loud the tune; Go forth uniting every heart In links no foe can ever part. Go, cross the deserts and the Sea, And whisper, "Bleck men shall be free!" Go everywhere beneath the sun And join all dark folk into one. Friday, December 5, 1930 Thought Signals By The Staff TO THE EDITOR: Last Sunday morning I went to visit the First Baptist Church on West Eighth street of which the Reverend Frank Tateberg is pastor. I was very much impressed by what I saw and heard. It is a very beautiful church which is said to have cost more than a half million dollars. According to the printed program the organ commenced at 10:40 and the sermon at 11 o'clock and the services were not a minute late. The minister used for his subject "Our Horsemen and Charlots of Fife". His discourse was practical and ably rendered. It was systematically arranged and showed in every expression that it was the product of a progressive mind. Well trained, although young and "thoroughly prepared to lead his congregation which is two thousand strong. The example of this congregation led by this young and well prepared is worthy of emulation. And I think that it is high time that many who are in a similar capacity as be should step for a brief period and take stock. How can one teach if he does not know? If the blind lae dthe blind they are both compelled to fall into the ditch. Neither can the indolent and slothful successfully lead or reach. I believe with such promptness, system and attractiveness in every detail and then with such profoundly practical sermons many who are strolling to the剧院 on Sunday evenings within arm's reach of the church could be induced to substitute the church for the theatre. Mind is the measure of man and not brawn, as the minister showed. I enjoyed the sermon and was helped a great deal as everyone else who was there. ```markdown ``` Book Notes Frankly we are embarrassed for space to tell you about all the good books to be found at the Helen Hunt Jackson and Vernon Branch libraries so we shall mention only a few of them here and hope that you will visit the library soon to find out about the rest of them for yourself. "Success" is a new novel by Lion Feuchtwanger, the author of "Power." With a modern city background, the author tells the story of many lives knitted together by the Imprisonment of one man, an artist who is the victim of corruption and intrigue. Around the fate of this prisoner sweep the passions and hates, the loves and desires of a vast process of humanity in a story which moves with the tempo of life itself. "Swift" is a aptendid biography from the pen of that eminent writer; Carl Van Doren. The author has chosen the writer of "Gulliver's Travels" as the greatest from the great company of Dryden, Pope and Addison and has set him forth with something like that terrible truth which Johnathan Swift himself poured upon the world. It is a fascinating piece of writing and all readers will find it interesting from first to last. "The Lives of a Bengal Lancet" is an authentic tale of high and glorious adventure written with a sweeping, brilliant prose style by Major F. Yates-Brown. It is the Book-of-the-Month Club Selection for November. A Bannu. one New Year's Eve, a young English subaltern faced a new challenge. Those who turn the leaves of this volume will learn how he was to see the wild world of Juggernaut; to face death when he morbored by a charging boar; to fly and fight over Mesopotamia; to know the lure of the Nauchs girl; and to learn centuries-old secrets from a great Yogi teacher. "The Deepening Stream" the first novel Dorothy Canfield has written in romance and vibrant with a full knowledge of life as it is lived by most of us. GIRL DEFENDS HERSELF WITH NAIL FILE Richmond, Va., Dec 3—(ANP) Effective welding of a nail file, perhaps saved the life of Louise Robinson, 18, when she was set upon by a group of white students. Louise, told the officers, when she was placed under arrest, charged with assault with intent to murder, that the group of white students pushed her off the sidewalk, and when she demonstrated with them they atacked her. The leader was Mary Moore, and she was stabbed several times in the shoulder with nail file. Of course, white cowitnesses described the affair as a bloody attack. The pushing of the girl was "accidental" and Mary "had not done a thing to the Negro girl." After the stabbing, Louise escaped and was arrested at her home a few hours later WRONGED If there is talk of a bad girl or woman in your neighborhood don't be to hasty in condemning her if he who is without sin among you cast the first slur; there will be no slurs cast and the greatest wronging of all will be avoided.

WHEN A CROWD ROOS WANTED: A FOOTBALL HERO CROWN BABY JOE GANS FOR * * * THE FIRST * * * TIME IN HIS Brief but sensational ring career Sammy Jackson heard the dread howl of the "pack". In other words for the first time he heard the hate- ful cry of bo-o-o. bo-o-o, as he went down the steps to the dug-outs beneath the arena at the Olympic last Tuesday night after he had just lost on a foul to Paulie Walker. Thirty minutes before he had climbed into the ring in his red striped bath-robed and the whole crowd white black- men and women stood up and elitered, white, Walker preceeding him received only a faint ripple of welcoming applause. It is a hateful sound, a chorus of boo, and rings in a young sensitive fighter's ears long after he has gone to the seclusion of his home. But it only shows the ficklenes of the crowd, and the mob-psychology that sways it, and makes it condemn you on snap judgement. It never rules that a foul could be an accident, just as it forgets you when your light of fame begins t ofade. * * * In Sammy's case it is impossible to believe he would foul anyone intentionally. However this Tink-smearer believes that Sammy had started out in the first and kept his left jabs, and right crosses to the head working as he did in the fifth and sixth he would have stopped Walker by the 8th. At least he stood out better fighting his old style that brought him into the affection of the he fans, and only got into trouble when he tried to get past the elbows of the weaving crouching Walker. Walker was a mark for a left hand and the point of his jaw was always in the way for four or five right hands in a row. It is to be hoped the unintentional foul will not hurt the leading contender's prestige, or that it will discourage him, just at the time the future semed so rosy. About Ritchey—Only at U. S. C. was there a colored boy who had a chance to bring honor to the California group of Negroes by becoming one of the several Trojans heroes who added to their fame this season not at end. This is Bert Ritchey full-who has been closely watched all season and this both by the paper and by the fans. Yet against Denver when he subdued for Brown in the second and third totalled a gain of 41-yards but he stood out. It is not that coach Jones does not give him the chance it is not that he lacks the right stance but it seems that he cannot reach the class of Duffield, Baker, Hall, Pinckert, or Arbélide. There are so many good players on the team that he would have had to be much better than he is to become another Bryce Taylor. Baby Joe Gans fights Andy Divodi at the Olympia on the 16th. Holding the distinction of being the country's best welterweight local fans should meet hi mat the train on his arrival as they did two years ago on his first trip home from the eastern front. Clean-cut, hard fighting, game and modest he is an honor to the local colored citizenry, the more so since he has put his money earned in the east in California dirt and owns around $50,000 worth of property here. Give him the glad hand when he comes. "A" LEAGUE Spartans defeated Gakusei-kwai 25- 15. Pasadena defeated Wanjles 22-20. Gardena defeated Oliver Juniors 37- 23. SHELL OIL PLAYS ROYAL GIANTS AT WRIGLEY FIELD, SUNDAY Strong Shell Oil Team Makes First Local Ap- The long awaited event is "eventing." Sunday Jimmie Austin and his band of ball tossers will take on the Giants in a double header at Wrigley Field. Although the Giants are leading the Winter League at present this enviable position was not gained at the expense of Shell Oil as to date these two teams have broken even in games played. Shell will bring to Wrigley Field possibly the strongest club ever assembled in winter league ranks. Just one combination alone is enough to bring joy to anymanagers heart. That is the old Hollywood double play combination of Lee to Kerr to Heath. Dudley Lee of Hollywood will be at shortstop, Johnny Kerr of the Chicago White Sox at second base and Mickey Heath at first base. Hal Rhyne of the Boston American will be at third base with Ray Jacobs of the Angels as utility infielder. Jess Hill. that sensational collegian player who broke into organized ball by hitting a home run on his first trip to the plate will be in center field supported on one side by Wes Griffin and upon the other by that funny man Seacap Christenson. The Shell Oil pitching staff is second to none in the lague. Austin can call upon three big leaguers in the person of Larry French of the Pittsburgh Club, McAvoy of the New York Yankees and Howard Craighead who has just ben soled to the big time. He also has Ted Pillette of the Mission Pacific Coast League team in reserve. Although the Giants boast of some mighty hard hitters we are of the opinibn that the walls of Wrigley Field will not be bombarded quite so heavily as during the past few series. Hank Severied and Hoffman will do the receiving for the aforesaid gentlemen and will probably bet by nicely. The Royal Giants need no description here as winter league fans are familiar with the sensational brand of ball they have been playing. Suttles continues merrily upon is home run path and Dixon has started hitting as he is capable of doing. Goodwin will probably work Foster and Charleston against the Shell Oil, team but that choice is not certain as he has Britt and Hunter in reserve. The first game will be calle dat 1:30 and ladies are admitted free to all games played at Wrigley Field. Saturday afternoon the Royal Glants travel to Long Beach to meet Shell in a game postponed from last Thanksgiving Day. Flooring him four tines and beating him every round Leon Thompson who is coming along like wild fire under the management of Charlie Williams, one of the few colored managers in the West, took the decision from Herb Russel in the main event at Culver City. Thompson made a big hit with the Culver City fans and is booked for several more fights there. Rufus Norman, the quiet, unassuming colored boy who inspired the famous Mark Kelly, sports editor of the Examiner to write half a page about him, a year ago, is not even in the shock troops of the Trojans any more. Rufus has about half a year to finish U. S. C. and the vicissitudes of fate make it necessary that he spend his spare time holding a job at Marlborough School, a private institution. If he could have stayed Rufus would have been one of the grid stars of his almer mater. * Bruins defeated Sun Produce 24-14.

Joe made a number of engagements for them securing Fatty Arbuckle to act as referee for them in the appearance that first brought them real fame. Upon leaving Cleveland he turned the kids over to Billy Powers. Says the Peoria, Ill., daily Journal: Nine years ago Billy Powers, a Cleveland boxing promoter, found Edison and Taft Baker in a colored barber shop in Cleveland. These young chaps were then unknown. Today they are the Gold Dust twins and as the vaudeville expression goes they are up there in the "big money." They have been one of the best acts ever booked at the Food Show. REALY TWINS The Gold Dust Twins are really twins. Salisbury. North Carolina is their home town. The first appearance of these boys was made at a prize fight where Joe Lynch and Joe Burmham were the main attraction. Fatty Arbuckle was the referee. Many important characters in the prize fight business have refereed these burlesque fights. Jack Dempsey, Risko, Dave Shade and many others have been the third man in the ring. During the past season the twins were busy for several weeks at state fairs. At this early date they have been booked for seven state fairs in 1931, and they also have a winter engagement of 12 weeks in Chicago at the famous Cotton Club. JEFF 13, BELMON IN SEASON'S FINAL GAME Last Friday, November 21st, the Jefferson Varsity ended the season by defeating Belmont at Jefferson. Doll Nelson (colored) showed his skill by being hero for the day by carrying Jeff to victory. Collier (colored) made some fine tackles while Dvkeman blocked some passes. Dunall, left tackle (colored) made a touchdown for Jeff, making the score 6-0. Oliver got the ball and ran to the 5 yard Last Saturday night a the Main Street when Sandy Casanova walked in to take a ring side seat all the fans began yelling hello Sandy at the friendly sensational light heavyweight and for a moment forgot about the bout in the ring. This is only a proof of his great popularity with the Main Street A. C fans. Next Saturday he meets the first real heavy weight and his greatest test his opponent giving Pickle Heinz a great fight at Hollywood a couple of weks ago. Carlo Curtis completed plans for the double main event to be staged Saturday night whe the signed George Matthews to meet Jack Charvez in one of the six round feature bouts, Sandy Casaiova and Frank Rudenski will box the other six. Matthews and Charvez are 165 pounders. Casanova will weigh just under 170 pounds, with his opponent 12 pounds heavier. APEX CHORUS GIRL A POETESS Contrary to the popular opinion that chorus girls' minds are as light and airy as their twinkling toes, Miss Palmere Jackson, one of the prettiest girls in Wallee Coyans chorus at the Apex Club is a talented writer. Some of her work has already been published. Below is a poem showing: A FRIEND Tortured and worried With tears in your eyes You came with a smile But I heard your sighs. Great sorrows and troubles Compassed you and yet— You smiled at my tears, Can I ever forget? You bid me "Good Cheer" With a fortitude strong, And a heart turned to stone Still you said "Join the throng." Not a pang or regret At the luck that we had But a fight to the end So I shouldn't be sad. Old Pal, down the year As our way we wend May I still have the honor Of calling you—"Friend?" line when Nelson blocked a tackler, Nelson made a touchdown but it did not count as a man was off side, so Jeff was penalized 15 yards. In the third quarter Nelson made another touchdown for Jeff. Oliver, quarterback, kicked goal. In the 4th quarter Nelson made a good run almost to the goal. Thus ended the last game of the season for Jeff, making the score 13 to 0, with 3 victories to their credit. There is big news to the ladies this week and aleso to whole clubs of them regardless of how many in number. Complying with suggestions of many followers of Winter league baseball at White Sox park, officials of the league held a meeting and decided to admit women free to future games at the Sox orchid. The policy will go into effect next Sunday, when a double-header will be played between Joe Pirrone's All-Stars and the Nashville Giants. The Giants took two out of three from M-G-M two weeks ago and last week-end won two of the three games played against the Pasadena club, then leaders in the race. For the Sunday twin bill Pirrone expects to use Johnny Walters, the Portland junk man, and Lou Koupal as his starting pitchers. It is expected that Cliff Bell and "Cannonball" Willis, who defeated Pasadena last week, will draw the pitching assignments for the Giants. SIGNS_FOR 10-YEARS — That bringing Nashville west was no idle experiment. Mr. Thos. Wilson has proven by signing up for ten years with White Sox Park. He is already owner of his own park at Nashville but will bring his team here each winter. Nashville following the addition of Cliff Bell, pitcher, and Felkin Stratton, infielder, looked like a new ball club in defeating Pasadena last week in two out of three games. George Harrisburg, Pa., (U.P.)—The season on for anterless deer opened in Pennsylvania and 56,024 hunters took to the woods in anticipation of a large kill in the special three-day period. Weather conditions in the 23 counties where the doe hunting is permitted was reported ideal. Snow in the western part of the state will make tracking easy.

Hollywood High Has Two Japanese Captains Hollywood High School lightweight football team has two captains. They are 'Massas' Manbo, two year lightweight football letter man and track letter man, and 'Shig' Teraji, two year varsity baseball letter man and track letterman. Both of these boys have been the consistent ground gainers for their team and are two of the chief reasons for their team's being among the leaders of the league. Manbo holds down the full-back position and Teraji the quarterback job. It is rumored that the names of both are likely to appear on the all-city team which will be chosen at the end of the present season. George Phillips Still on Job At Apex The man behind the scenes or in other words, the employee holding the most important, if not the most spectacular position is Geo. W. Mathews, treasurer of the Mosby interests. He has been with the company since its first beginning and now with the handling of all the business in the hands of Manager Jas. W. Williams and him, the importance is doubled, as Curtis Mosby himself is at the New Apex in San Francisco. Mathews is always steady, painstaking and careful, a credit to any business. BEN BOWIE POST AIDS ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT AT TIVOLI A Scene From ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT UNIVERSAL SUPER-PRODUCTION at 1:15 o'clock. FREE PARKING Another excellent BEN BOWIE POST A THE WESTERN F Greatest War Picture o A Scene From ALL QUIET UNIVERSAL SO In that never-to-be-forgotten spring of 1917, when like crackling wild-fire, the startling news run 'round the earth, "The United States declares war on Germany," who forget the tenseness, the excitement, the fire of battle, that stirred men's blood, the vearning, anxiety, loyalty, self-sacrifice and assistance of the women left behind? Like a vivid dream all the gripping scenes that occurred in those days tried men's souls, room then on till Armistice Day are to be flashed on the screen in sight and sound at the Tivoli Theatre, next Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, December 7, 8, 9 and 10. As in all our wars, the ever patriotic Negro, was among the first to rush and enlist, to answer the selective draft, and go singing and fighting like hell-cats into the murderous, death-hurricane that blazed and burst from the German trenches. History archives of that reatest of World Wars reveals no Negro deserters or spies, and at the Fort Riley detention camp (one of the largest in the country) among the many enemy aliens and conscientious objectors imprisoned there, not one Negro could be found. The fifteen million Negroes of the United States sent the flower of their young manhood as living sacrifices to the greedy God of War. There stripped of all the pomp and pageantry the blare of bands, the cheers and plaudits, they too faced the stern reality of sogg, slimy vermin-filled trenches, blood-called wounds, pain racked death—all for democracy and their own United States. Who can forget the days in training camps, the long columns of black soldiers hiking over the steep hill back of camp Funston, singing "Glory Glory, Hallelujah." to the trump of their myriad feet? And as at Camp Funston, the same at Camp Travis, Fort Still, Camp Pilp, Fort Des Moines, Fort Bliss, and all the large training camps where large numbers of Negro civilians were hurriedly transformed into some of the world's finest soldiers. Who can forget the scenes at Birmingham, Tulsa, Chicago, New York, or Los Angeles, when the boys boarded the trains for overseas ships to France, and anguished wives, sweet-hearts and mothers, clung to them, weeping hysterically yet ground --- HORACE HAMPTON BILL EDWARDS Carr, great hitter, who was added to the Giants' roster, will be seen in the twin bill today. The first game starts park management is the offer of ample free parking space at the park. Ladies clubs who attend in a body will be allowed boxes free and the name of the club placed on the box. The intimacy of this neighborhood Park will increase its popularity, as several plan to avail of this hospitality. AIDS ALL QUIET ON FRONT AT TIVOLI of the Age Opens Sunday ON THE WESTERN FRONT SUPER-PRODUCTION through their tears. BEN BOWIE POST Of all the regular army units the 8th Illinois and the Fiftenth New York were in the first contingent to see service on "the Western Front." Both were cited for valor in action, and nearly half of the famous fighting 8th was mowed down at Chateau Thierry, the Meuse Argonne, and Belleau Woods. To hear our local legionnaires tell some of their experiences is a novel in itself. All Quiet on the Western Front startled the world when the novel was first published for it tells the bare story of boys barely out of their teens and girls of equal youth, their young hearts, adrift in a sea of uncharged emotions. Books thrown down for rises and whirled into a maelstrom of the world's greatest tragedy. Youth facing a crisis! Yet through all the living, breathing, beauty of undying love. Right here in Los Angeles is located Ben Bowie Post, pride of the West and one of the largest and finest bodies of men in the country. Most all of them saw service in the famed 92nd Division, the 93rd, the 3th and the 15th regiments. Among them are also members of the 24th and 25th Infantry who acted as instructors both here and in France. When Mr. M. A. Ellsworth, manager of the Tivoli Theatre succeeded in securing the wonder talkie "All Quiet on the Western Front"—Ben Bowie answered his request for assistance in graphically presenting the picture by loaning him souvenirs of the war they brought from France. Curtis Carpentier, formerly a lieutenant of the 92nd Division, Norman Houston, Jerome Hubert, Harry Beal and Eddie Carlyle, loaned hand grenades, shells; rifles, bayonets, gas masks, trench knives, helmets, ammunition belts and other implements of warfare. They are on display in the lobby behind a replica of a fortified trench in charge of George Burleson also of Ben Bowie Post. Owing to the fact "All Quiet on the Western Front" takes two hours and twenty minutes, we are forced to discontinue our usual Sunday vaudeville, this week only!
