The supreme court of the District of Columbia grand the District of Mrs. Cortis Columbia granted an imposition restraining Mrs. Corrigan from selling and Mrs. Cortis from losing the property at 119 S. St. N. W. Agreement Made On June 1, 1921, 23 persons owed property on both sides of S. St. between New Hampshire Ave. and Eighteenth St. N. W., entered into a contract on each side with Mrs. Corrigan in the property she will have used or occupied by or sold, conveyed, based, rented or given to Negroes or persons of the Negro race or blood. It was also agreed that the covenant "shall run with the land and bind the respective hours for the period of 21 years." Mrs. Corrigan was one of those who signed this agreement. On Sept. 26, 1922, Mrs. Corrigan entered into a contract to sell her property to Mrs. Curtis. Neighbors of Mrs. Corrigan protested to her sale. Mrs. Corrigan indicated that she would not refuse to sell or convey her property to Mrs. Curtis. Mr. Buckley then applied to the supreme court of the District of Columbia for an injunction to enjoin Mrs. Corrigan from selling and Mrs. Curtis from selling the premises at 1710 S. St. N. W. Upheld by Spurt Both Mrs. Curtis and Mrs. Curtizan moved to dismiss the bill. These motions were overruled. Amendments were made to the news for Mrs. Curtizan and Mrs. Curtizan carried the case to the court of appeals, which affirmed the decision on the district supreme court. The court of appeals ruled that supreme court of the United States. --- Attorney Louis Marshall of New York, on behalf of Mrs. Curtigan and Mrs. Curtis, made the opening argument that the defendant is unconstitutional because it deprives the defendants of their property without due process of law and, secondly, that the covenant is void as being contrary to public Louisville Case Mr. Marshall directed the attention of the court to the Louisville segregation case. He declared that "the court in that case, having decided that the plaintiff would not through its common council, could not segregate white owners from black owners," this covenant was invented for the purpose of bringing about the same results by means of the court's decision. The property in a particular neighborhood, and covenants of that character have come into being in various parts of the country, and some improved by adding that they would not sell to the plaintiff. He argued that no agency of a state act that a state was prohibited, from doing under the Fourteenth amendment, and that the aid of the judicial branch could not be invoked in enforcing acts which the state could not do through its legislative branch. Mr. Marshall contended that the covenant was contrary to public policy. He cited certain statutes of the United States, declaring that all citizens of the United States shall have the same right in every state as is enjoyed by white citizens to purchase, lease, sell, hold and convey property. He said, "We, however, are not confined to any special statute," he said, "but to the general traditions of the common law, with regard to the transfer of property. We contend that in this case the public policy, which has existed in England and taken over in this country with respect to re EXTRA Florida Has New Lynch Stunt Ocala, Fla., Jan. 15—For the first time in history radio station broadcast a lynching. Florida goes on record as being the first state in the South to inaugurate such a "unique and entertaining" plan as radioed by the announcer, who told his listeners to "stand close by" and hear the mob at work on Nick Williams. Williams' cries could be heard over the air as the mob fired shots into his body. He had been accused of "speaking impolitely to a white grocery clerk." Williams was seized on his way to work and taken before the clerk, a woman, for identification. He had not seen her on a previous occasion. Williams told the mob. Northern guests in the local hotels and real estate speculators' were summoned out of their beds by the mob to witness the lynching. A suspect was made the prosecution be broadcast and the lynching was staged adjacent a radio station. No arrests have been made and none are expected to be.

A bill to prohibit intermarriage between the races in the District of Columbia was introduced this week into the United States senate by Thaddeus H. Caraway (Democrat) of Arkansas. The bill, which makes bastards of the children born of a mixed marriage in the District, and makes it a felony for any minister or justice of the peace to marry any white person to a member of the Race, was read twice and referred to the committee on the District of Columbia. A fine of $1,000 and imprisonment of not less than one year are the penalties attached to the bill. If a member of the Race defies the proposed law and marries a white person, he or she will be driven out of the district of the marriage taking place outside of the District the couple will not be allowed to live in the District of Columbia. Persons resident in the District who go outside to get married cannot escape the penalties of the bill, for it is especially provided that in that case the shall not be allowed to resume residence. The bill is not retractive.

Andrew Barry when neighbors telephoned the police that they were any of the men, the noise there. The raid netted 25 men, 17 of whom were married. Mrs. Edwards explained that she was a poor widow and had to make her living. A quantity of moonshine was produced, but she declared that she had not had time to sell any of the men, as the officers came to quick. "You want to make widows out of these men's wives by selling their husbands this poison," declared Judge Joseph L. McCarthy as he imputed $25 each to Mrs Jean Parrish, $29 each to Mrs Margle Lee, was fined $25 and costs when Officer Mortimer Goldstein reported that the woman ran a derelict house and the white girl was well known for future Mrs. Marcaet Brandon, 4335 St. Lawrence Ave. drew a fine of $25 and costs when a letter was produced which was purported to have been written to the chief of police declaring that the widower husband went to the woman's house and lost all his money buying whisky and playing poker. Mound Bayou Section Des Mound Bayou, Miss., Jan. 15.—Mound Bayou, Miss., one of the few towns in the country mainly inhabited by the race, founded by L. T. Montgomery and B. T. Green, was the scene of the most disastrous fire in its history when the Booza Mercantile company, the center of trade and the largest employer in the town, totally destroyed at 2 a.m., Jan. 9. Other businesses were also destroyed, including the postmills, a barber shop, restaurant, garage and large quantities of bay, coal and mercantile company carried a large JURY RIGHT VIOLATED IN TRIAL Because courts in Forsythe county, North Carolina, draw the "color line" in picking juries, Judge James B. Drew of Pittsburgh, Pa., refused to send back to North Carolina a man indicted there for violation of the liquor laws. Extradition papers for Sandy Huser, the accused man, had been issued by Governor McLean of North Carolina and had even been honored by Governor Pinchot of Pennsylvania, but when the sheriff from the mob-law state came into Judge Drew's court, where Huser appeared in habeas corpus proceedings, the judge refused to turn over the "fugitive." It was plain to the court, he said, that members of the Race were denied the right to serve on juries in the county, where the indictment against Huser uses outlined procedures, the indictment itself was therefore illegal. Huser's indictment, Judge Drew ruled, had been obtained in violation of the United States Constitution, which guarantees to every man the right of the equal protection of the laws. He permitted Huser to serve, and the sheriff from the Jail Creek state was forced to cool his heels. Barred From Jury Service "There has not been a member of Husser's race on a jury in North Carolina for more than 20 years," he said. "The population of Forsyth县 is 76,000 and of this number 23,000 are members of his race, many of whom are competent to serve on juries. They have two banks, and their number includes lawyers, ministers, bankers, lawyers, and others fully qualified by intelligence, experience and moral integrity to sit on juries. But not one of them has ever been permitted to serve. The statute shows that in jury-drawing the names of all taxpayers are to be placed in the jury wheel from which the jurymen are to be drawn. The Raleigh County Court does not place them or if there are rejected after the drawing. They pay taxes on more than $4,000,000 worth of real estate.

HOWARD CUT FROM HOUSE BUDGET BILL Washington, D. C., Jan. 15. After shaking Howard university's appropriation from the $131,000 granted last year to a merger $218,000, the United States house of representatives Monday afternoon cut even that figure out of its interior department appropriation bill and passed the bill without a cent for the maintenance of our largest university. The Howard budget was dropped upon the objection of Representative Butler Hare, a South Carolina Democrat, who raised the point of order authorized. Representative Louis C. Crampton, the Michigan Republican who introduced the bill, admitted that the point was valid. He has now reintroduced a bill to authorize Howard's items. It is expected that the appropriation will be restored by the senate. Representative Hare, who voiced the federal southern opposition to the federal government's appropriation for Howard, is the successor of Representative James F. M. Byrnes, the maker of the same point of order. The bill as passed carries an appropriation of $166,280 for Freedman's hospital, but this figure also includes a reduction from the $202,500 with which the men's last year. In the 1927 budget for the hospital the salary allowance is increased from $80,000 to $113,000 but the figure for subsistence, fuel medicine, etc. is slashed from $63,000 to $29,904, while the $60,000 nurse In the itemized statement of the proposed 1927 Howard appropriation the figure for materials and tools is cut from $34,000 to $28,000, the fuel and light allowance is raised from $10,000 to $12,000, the urea remain unchanged. The $375,000 building appropriation made for in 1926 is left out this year. CHANGES PLEA Jersey City, N. J., Jan. 15. After denying that he had killed his brother, the judge rested his case.

ROLAND HAYES, DEMANDING EQUAL RIGHTS, HAS COLOR LINE WIPED FROM THEATER Baltimore, Md., Jan. 15.—Fighting the battles of his Race even while carving out for himself the most brilliant career an American tenor has achieved in recent years. Roland Hayes dealt segregation in Baltimore concert halls a death blow Thursday night. Fresh from Atlanta, Ga., where he had made a substantial dent in the wall of Jim Crowism, he yielded in a substantial deftie in the wall this city to The Chicago Defender's suggestion and completely smashed the wall. He flatly refused to set foot on the stage of the Lyric theater unless members of his Race were given the very same seating privileges his white audience got. For a full 30 minutes he let a crowded house wait, threatening to cancel his engagement unless his terms were met. Only when he had forced the rowdyly color-marches of the show trickery to which they had resorted to keep a "color line" in his audience did he agree to sing. Shows Strain His opening number showed the strain that warring with southern dirt had imposed on him. It was but a shadow of his usual brilliant performance. Not until his second group had his spirit revived from the buffering of wrestling with those "establishment" men in the White House says must not be disturbed. Roland Hayes, although an artist big enough to have dodged the issue, made it his business to see that they were disturbed. He accepted the Defender's criticism of him as the Atlanta smokers behind him, those smokers who were parting themselves on the back that "we must be satisfied" with the Dima Crow seating arrangement imposed on him there. But M. Ashby Jones, a man who is a native of that very city of Atlanta, where the concert was staged, and who is a white man, set the emphatically declared that HE was NOT "satisfied," and would not be as loud as there was any segregation at all. Race Fights Back Baltimoreans feel exactly the same way. Thursday night, as soon as they saw segregation in the air, immediately began to get up and walk out. They were not alone. Race are doing all over the country when they are told to take "half a loaf." The fewools who agree with the Atlanta "contented ones" are fast dying out, but there seems to be enough of them left to keep men like Ashby Jones from accomplishing their mission. By the National Race congress helped prevent segregation at the Washington, D. C., concert last Tuesday night. Taking a firm stand, Hayes had even sent a personal representative to the capital and in Boston that his Race would not be discriminated against. He was given "a white man's promise" that they would not, and the promise was immediately broken. The white management ingeniously jugged tickets to seat all the people hooded together leaving segregated strips in the audience. Mrs. Wilson-Green, the white promoter of the concert, found the nerve to say that she "thought Colored people liked that." She said that "those were sure forever." Hayes was adamant and the management gave way as cowards have a habit of doing. 8HOT BY ROBBERS Newport, Ark., Jan. 15.—Charles Davis, aged 32, was shot in the shoulder but not seriously wounded re-attempting to break into the Phillips meat market.

S. ABBOTT LAUDS JUDGE DREW'S ACTION The decision handed down by Judge James B. Drew of Pittsburgh, Fla., in the case of extraction of Sandy Huser by the state of North Carolina, is one which commands the attention and respect of the judiciary in this country, not because the respondent in the case was a Colored man, but because of the legal question involved. For the past quarter of a century, confidence in the judiciary of this country has been shaken and has not enjoyed the degree of respect which rightly belongs to it. All people have been inclined to think that the laws, and particularly the Constitution of the United States, which is the organic law of our land, have not been given to all people, some element of prejudice, based upon race or religion, but in the decision of Judge Drew we find quite a different situation. We find a gentleman who regards the law, law, law, law, the person subject to the law, and the subjects will have more to do with the stability of our government and inspiring confidence and respect for our judiciary than any decision that I have knowledge of and mentioned, and it shows that Judge Drew's conception of justice fits the description as laid down by Shakespeare when he says: "Be just and fear not; Let all the ends thou aim'at Be thy country's, thy God's and Robert S.

OHIO JOURNAL SAYS "NO JIM CROW HERE" Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 15.—Under the bold caption, "No Black or White Here," last Sunday's Ohio State Journal carried a four-column drawing of a mixed audience enjoying a Holland Hayes concert. White and dark, climbed persons, equally well dressed, are seen sitting side by side in a great concert wall. The newspaper of that pioneer journalist, Ralph Tyler, has not allowed his spirit to lie forgotten. Tyler spent his life presenting the cause of his Race to the white public: he has left Columbus a priceless heritage in his indomitable spirit, and is�erely of every infringement of privilege. Tyler was a man who knew his rights and had he guts to demand them. He city would be the better for a few men like Tyler, with the backbone to light for what belongs to them. The trouble with Columbus today is that too many are willing to sit down and do nothing when they are discriminated against it. Instead of forcing their way into every public place as they have the right to do, they are afraid even to walk through the capitol grounds. They might as well be in Columbia, S.

It is said that the aged sultan has been facing eviction for nonpayment of rent, while other former monarchs and nobles are living in comparative luxury in foreign lands. Tingles looked dark for the once wealthy and influential head of the Moslem world, which has his sister named to the rescing and pawned her jewels. No sooner was this debt settled than the extravagant conduct of his nephew in Paris resulted in squandering of jewels said to be worth a million francs. A fresh call probably will be made upon the former monarch's relatives, but many of them are in as great need as the ex-sultan himself. For example, Prince Zheddin, eldest son of the sultan's predecessor, Moorlemed, is in the last stages of destruction. He and his wife and two daughters are also facing eviction for nonpayment of rent. Friends have started a subscription in their behalf.

Athens, Ga., Jan. 15—How work that began 20 years ago near this city developed into a modern industrial institute, recently partly burned, was related here to a staff correspondent of The Chicago Defender. The first idea of the organization, it was told, was to improve home 60 and promote a substantial business. The organization is a group organization of several small groups of small land clubs. During summer months when money was scarce members sometimes found impossible to pay more than 25 cents and sometimes less than 10 cents each month. During fall months the sum was always increased, but at a small surface on the part of the small land. Begin Buying Land Interest grow and individuals he can buy small tracts until all available land was owned by members of the race. It was then turned over for the erection of school buildings. The principal was the first to turn over her four shares for the erection of a teacher's training institute building, the first of its kind in the South. They celebrated with black coffee and crackers when the first bright ray of success penetrated the cloud that had hovered over them for so long. Get Outside Aid Conditions changed for the better and aid was extended by the general county board of education and the Jalusin Rosenwald tund. The school has grown steadily and the county board has extended time to time. Today graduates of the school hold high positions in cities throughout the country. Doctoral and medical home nursing are some of the branches taught in addition to the academic course. The main school building was burned to the ground, and as a result the work of the school is being received from the tund. As yet not enough to replace the building that was destroyed by fire.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER HUGHES HEIR SELLS OUT TO MILLIONAIRES Kentuckian's Ex-Slave Wife Quits Estate Lexington, Ky., Jan. 15.—Ellen Davis, the 80-year-old ex-slave, who became mistress of a Kentucky millionaire and was willed his property at his death, last week sold out her rich holdings to a group of millionaire associates of Col. John T. Hughes, her late husband. Had she desired, she might have lived in the $500,000 estate at Elkton as the neighbor of such millionaires as Joseph E.

More than 100 bushalls were given away to residents of the city. This defender had less fortunes than others.

CRAMPING SPELLS END AS BIRMINGHAM WOMAN STARTS USING G. F. P. MRS. CARLIE B. WATTS Women Now Depend on St.Joseph's G.F.P. To Restore Their Vitality "I suffered something terrible from cramping spells every month." says Mrs. Carlie B. Watts, who lives at 828 23d St., down in Birmingham, Ala. "This trouble seemed to affect my entire system and I suffered from headaches, backaches and pains in my sides. I tried a number of different medicines and treatments, but none of them did me the slightest good and I had about given up all hopes of getting my health and strength back. "Then I began hearing about the wonderful things St. Joseph's G. F. P. is doing for other women right here in Birmingham, and I got a bottle and started using it. This medicine is different from all the others. I could feel a big improvement in my condition by the time I had finished my second bottle. "I am now on my fifth bottle of this wonderful medicine and you would hardly know me for the same person. I never have the slightest trouble from cramping and all those old headaches, backaches and pains in my sides are gone, too. I sleep better than I have in months and have a much better appetite, too. I wish there was some way I could tell every woman and girl about this medicine which is doing me so much good." There is scarcely a day goes by but what you see or hear of some girl or woman, like Mrs. Watts, who was in pain and misery from so-called "female trouble" and was never able to get any relief, but who is now quickly and surely regaining her health and SATURDAY, JANUARY 16, 1926 SPELLS END GHAM WOMAN SING G. F. P. 1 strength with an abundance of vitality and energy through the consistent use of St. Joseph's G. F. P. The success of this medicine over other medicines and treatments for the relief of those ill peculiar to women is due to its well-known power and reliability in overcoming and stamping out Catarrh of the Female Organs. This dreaded malady is always hovering over our women and girls, waiting for an opportunity to get its terrible hold on their most important organs when they are in a weakened condition due to the effects of coils, exposure, overexertion or some unusual drain on their system such as takes place when young girls are merging into womanhood, at childhood or during the change of life. Once Catarrch gets its terrible hold, it never "works itself out of the system" as so many other ills are commonly supposed to do, but continues to grow and spread to all parts of the system, causing headaches, backaches, pains in the sides and limbs, irregularity, cramping, nausea, dizziness, loss of appetite, nervousness, bearing-down pains, swelling of the limbs and joints during pregnancy, and even kidney, liver and bladder troubles of serious consequences, unless the proper steps are taken to check its growth. Owing to the power and reliability of St. Joseph's G. F. P. in overcoming and stamping out this terrible enemy to the health and happiness of our women and girls and building them up into strong, healthy women, with an abundance of vitality and energy, the demand for this strengthening medicine is growing by such leaps and bounds, it now takes more than a million and a half bottles a year to supply the ever - increasing number of users.

JANUARY 16. 1926 CHURCH YOUTH SCORE RACIAL ANIMOSITIES Southern Methodists Urge Fair Play Memphis, Teen., Jan. 15.—Fourth methodist, Methodist of the South, in convention in this city the past week, went on record with the declaration that "divisive, unbrotherly attitudes as between races must be displaced by the spirit of generosity, service and mutual understanding, and made the principles of Jesus" said the young people, "namely, the fatherhood of God, the brotherhood of man and the supreme value of human personality." Their denomination, the M. E. church of the South, numbering 2,500,000, was requested to "take steps to being as far as possible equal advantages between the races in the South in education, in the courts, in economic matters and in the opportunity for self-government." The subject of race relations had a prominent place on the three-day program. The speakers and leaders there included the president of Southern Y. M. C. A. college, Nashville; Rev. Channing H. Tobias, international secretary of the Y. M. C. A. New York; W. W. Alexander, director of excavation in the University of Atlanta, and Ir. E. D. Soper, of Duke university, Durham. S. C. The subject was also discussed freely from the floor. The resolutions on solutions were part of the findings formed by the young people and were as follows: "There is conflict and strife, separation of groups of individuals, one against the other, unbrotherhoodness under the spirit of Christ can abide. The unbrotherhood traits we must eliminate from our society. * * * Particularly do we tell that the situation in the South calls for the finest expression of the Christian spirit of service and respect. In this latter case we must abide by the principles of Jesus, namely, the fatherhood of God, the brotherhood of man and the supreme value of human personality. We go on record as favoring, and we receive from our church take steps to bring about possible equal advantages between the two in education, in the administration of the law, in economic matters and in opportunity for self government."

Society Question The effect of such strict measures, Mr. Marshall said, would be "necessarily to create ill feeling, hate, jealousy, breaches of peace and deprive citizens of a fundamental right guaranteed to them of acquiring and discharging of a special question, it is a question of property and property rights." Mr. Marshall declared that by the terms of this covenant, any person having a single corpureus of dark skin, a white face, a darker the ban. Such a covenant, he said, would have excluded Alexander Dunn. He pointed out that there is nothing to indicate how many generations back we shall go to determine whether or not a person is a Negro or whether there shall be a biological or microscopic test. Favors Exclusion The argument in favor of upholding such covenants was made by James S. Eashy-Smith. He contended that there was no constitutional question involved. The sole issue involved, he said, was the power of a number of land owners to execute and record a contract, which they bind themselves, their heirs and assigns for a period of 21 years to prevent any land described in the covenant from being sold, leased to or occupied by Negroes or persons of Negro blood." If a constitutional question is in question, the court of public policy, which has been foreclosed by the opinion of the court of appeals, the highest court in the District of Columbia. He argued that the supreme court was without jurisdiction because there was no constitutional question involved. He could attention to what he termed the "shift of position" of the appellants. He argued that the District of Columbia is not a state and that the Fourteenth amendment is no applicable to the district. Mr. Easby-Smith contended that the covenant was no: a restraint upon the alienation of property, but upon the use, and if it is a restraint upon alienation, it is only a partial restraint, and for a limited period. The closing argument for Mrs. Curtis, made by Moor Storey, leading authority on constitutional law. The attorneys for the appellants on the brief were James A. Cobb, Henry E. Davis, William H. Lewis and James P. Shick, Moor Storey, James P. Shick, Moor Storey, and Hervil K. Stockton, counsel. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People became interested in the case upon its appeal to the court of appeals of the District of Columbia.

Since oral and written evidence had clearly proven that the "color line" was drawn in Forsyth county jury selection, and this evidence was undisputed, Judge Jude agreed that the indictment by which Huser was accused was invalid and illegal. All Equal Under Law He was supported by an earlier opinion of Chief Justice Strong in ex parte Virginia (100 U. S. 339), who said in discussing the 14th amendment. A state acts by its legislative, its executive, or its judicial authorities. It can act in no other way. The Constitutional provision, therefore, must mean that no agency of the state, or of the officers or agents by whom it shall deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. Whoever by virtue of a public position, under a state government, deprives another of life, liberty or property, the process of law, or denies or takes away the equal protection of the laws, violates the constitutional inhibition; and as he acts in the name of and for the state, his act is the of the state. This must be, or the constitutional prohibition has no meaning. Right to Serve As Jurors The supreme court of the United States in Neal vs. Delaware (103 U. S. Reports) has said: We repeat what was said in that case (Virginia vs. Rivers), that while a Colored citizen, party to a trial, was giving his life, liberty, or property causing him to be of right that his race shall have representation on the jury, and while a mixed jury in a particular case is not within the meaning of the law, or absolutely necessary to the equal protection of the laws, it is A right to which he is entitled "that in the selection of jurors to pass upon his life, liberty, or property, there shall be no discrimination against them because of their color." It was solely upon these grounds of an invalid indictment that Judge Drew discharged Husser. The court did not state, as has been published in other papers, that a member of the jury or anyone else could not get a fair trial in the state of North Carolina. There is ample protection for all citizens, whatever their race or color, in the Constitution of the United States and in the laws of the United What has been wanting in the past has been a supply of judges fearless enough to cleave to the law and in order it justly. In the action of Judge Drew enlisted an example of clear, logical interest without bias or favor, making the Constitution and the laws enacted under it serve those ends of justice for which they were designed. Judge Drew did no more than his duty in placing the only possible construction upon the law as presented to him Observe Emancipation Day Pittsburgh, Pa., Jan. 15.—The annual Allegheny county emancipation celebration will hold Jan. 1, at the Sheehan Woods, president of the Virginia Theological seminary and college at Lansing, and the Woods assistant district president and the service commissioner of New York city were the principal speakers.

OUR NAVY IS NOT SO BAD REPORT SHOWS United States Ships Could Be Worse Washington, D.C., Jan. 15.—Upon completion of the modernization of our older battalships, it may be assured that our capital ships may be well fitted for the future of gun elevation and "deferred maintenance" expected. This is the finding of the Navy League of the United States, which has just completed a survey of the state of the American navy and of its immediate prospects. The task is to offset by superior catapult equipment on our battalships and carriers, making it possible for these vessels to operate and carry airplanes on their decks. Much less satisfactory, the Navy League is specifying auxiliary classes of vessels. In comparison with other powers, the United States has the strongest position in the line of destroyers. It has 281 destroyers totaling 334,684 tons, as against 183, totaling 209,265 tons, as against 153, totaling 72, totaling 77,055 tons for Japan. The United States has no destroyers under construction. Great Britain has two, totaling 2,700 tons, and Japan 20, totaling 28,855 tons. Published figures purporting to show the total number of lynchings during the year 1525 do not give the total, they give only that part of the murderings that find their way into print. Countless other cases, cases where individual white men shoot down members of the face in cold blood and nothing is said about them, go into the newspapers. Their number is unknown. Trained would swell the list of murderings to a figure that would cause America to hang her head in shame. There is hardly a state in the South, there is hardly a county below the Mason-Dixon line, that has not recked with the blood of those innocent victims of some individual with man's barbarism. It is not as if he has been identified identification. He is apparently held captive. He struts about his little towship immediately after the killing, with no fear at all of punishment. He need not even fear any loss in social prestige, for the rest of his community has sunk so near his own brutish level that they see no wrong in walking like pigs in human blood.

JUST THINK OF IT Madam C.J.Walker's WONDERFUL HAIR GROWER --- Dear Princess: This is my third time to come to you with my troubles and I am so sorry to hear that I am a married woman and have been married a year and a half. I am 20 and my husband is 25. He provides well for me, but here is my trouble: I am very fond of children and want to become a mother, but he is so unconcerned when I leave him daily on account of his illness. Do you think I am wrong for wanting children? When I see children almost wishing, they were mine. I am sad that man is worthy of being a husband if he doesn't want to be a father? - Wanting Children. When a man murries, he does so, so he should be the performer of all the duties of a good husband, and a thoroughly good husband, who loves his wife, and loves his children. If he does not bear children, he is usually much disturbed and wonders why. It is woman's nature to love her children, earth, and when she forbly prevents such action, either by choice or perseverance, she is more powerful and mysterious cunning that Mother Nature endowed her with. A woman, instinctively, desires motherhood, and plays the natural love a mother has for a child. You are no different from a child. You are not denied and is denied them. Some women are incapable of becoming mothers and, therefore, they deserve pity, but a woman does not deserve pity. His secret reason for not wanting you to bear a child should also render him unit for children, now is the time, while you are young. If he continues to forbid your health and secure your happiness by leaving him. Dear Princess Mysteria: I have read your advice to others, so now I come to you for help.

Philadelphia Judge Tries Reforming Instead of Jailing Philadelphia, Pa., Jan. 15.—In trying to make a better adjustment of some students than by always committing on orders to jail or other covenantal institutions and thus making conformity seem impossible, Henry recently approached the executive secretary of the Armstrong association to coordinate co-operation with his court in developing a social service program in dealing with deserving cases. Some of the boys and girls who are caught in the whirlpool of social maladjustment as would be assigned to work with whom would assume the responsibility of providing them with a change of environment, wholesome recreation and a new and better life. Forrester B. Washington, executive secretary of the Armstrong association, thought the magistrate's idea so human that he co-operate and appointed Charles S. Wilkinson of the staff of the Armstrong association, as representative to the president and appointed Mr. Wilkinson is particularly fitted for the work. He is a graduate of Virginia Union and Temple universities, the University of Houston and the Health Work, and studied at Sorbonne university in Paris, France. He served overseas with the A. E. F. and has served in the University and the sociation for a period of two years, Mr. Wilkinson is also a member of the Union Baptist church and teacher of a Rhite class in Sunday school. This is the school which is now in the annuals of the magistrate courts in Philadelphia, will lead to a more humane method of dealing with the magistrate's race in the city in years in other magistrate courts. If so, it will be interesting to note that the plan was inaugurated by the only magistrate on our Race in the city in association with a social agency of the same make.

While it was really a treat, this diversion from the general run of entertainment presented at this house, and the ditting proprieties that drama de- veloped to appreciate by the mall audiences is endearing. I was somewhat surprised to enter the theater and see so many empty pony tents. True, the night was a cold one, and that may be the reason. The Ivacov" was the vehicle played by the director of a contemplated run of several weeks and it was very capably played.

She marries the other man, all agreed to by the three parties, but the husband is making in the household as a roomer-boarder, much to the dislike of the new husband, but after much agreement to the husband's request.

Macon, Ga. Kindness Is kindness losing its significance, like love and friendship? Love is now used to denote a mild prefer- ence for a person, a love another. The term, friendship, is employed to challenge the quaintances. I one knows and likes a person, the word friend he loves, or wise, the person is merely an acquaintance. PETER H. HARRIS To be kind to co-pilient and jaws, such on the bank of happiness, that understand why it is difficult to **8. T. Whitney** understand why we need regular depositors. The ultimate aim of all normal human beings is the attachment of happiness. No matter what our occupations, we are primarily depositors. There is no quicker, surer way to obtain our objective than by traveling over the kindness route. Once upon a time, before road cars became common, change cars at Friendship station to board the Love special, and then it "all aboard" for the city of Happiness. Too simple. The simple cures and the simple facts are so easily overlooked. A theatrical company furnishes the simple cures for studying human nature. Any time there are more than two persons constantly associated, there will be differences of opinion and when these differences occur there is almost certain. Differences of opinions are general in theatrical companies. No matter what occupation you have, the dissenting opinions are in the majority. No matter how simple the subject, how rival the circumstance, how unimportant the occasion, the negatives have the larger The size of the theater, its distance from the station, its conveniences and disavantages, the matter of enlightenment, the mood of dressing rooms, the allotment of dressing rooms, the quality and quantity of make-up, the matter of borrowing and lending, the quality of the audience, which one traveled, the qualification of actors, the case and standing of one's family, relatives and ancestors, the quality of one's temper, the manner of dressing, these and innumerable other things furnish excellent material for arguments and ample proof that the debaters have lost sight of their origi- bative, the pursuit of happiness. Kindness, like Christianity, even though you are a disbeliever, can't do you any harm. Kindness is one of the quickest antidotes and surest remedies for allaying irritating arguments, hateful misunderstandings, willful mistreatment and poisonous gossip. If the case is acute or chronic, kindness should be administered in large and frequent doses, whether or not the patient objects to the remedy or deserves the treatment. If one persists in the treatment, a complete cure is guaranteed. Laugh, if you will, about turning the other cheek, doing good for evil, love thy neighbor as thyself, etc.; it sounds like a meek, unmanly or unwomanly doctrine, does it? Just make a sincere trial of returning good for evil, kindness for unkindness, and see how it works. Try it for the year 1926, as we travel about, and see if you won't accumulate more sincere friends, have more of love and happiness than the girl or fellow who goes about with a chip on the shoulder, looking for trouble. A quick, uncontrollable temper is not an asset; its possession is nothing to brag about. The person with a quick temper and a stubborn disposition is usually looking for a job and they change jobs often than a dinner change her mind. Managers don't send out scouts to look for persons who are continually standing for and what they won't take. Kindness makes an indelible impression—it's like casting bread upon the contemplated forces will return to it you. Anyone can be kind when the occasion demands it, but to be kind, you must have kindness neither deserves or appreciates it, that is the true test of kindness, the sort of kindness that will stand for one's feet to the city of Happiness.

Miss Fredricks was given first aid by Dr. Roberts, who made a final examination at the request of Mrs. Ridley. He found no injury. Bobbie says she is ghettoed and not a fliver. For the future she refuses to balance anything but Jackaardus on her head. Bobbie is the accident, which happened just in front of the Lenox and caused the cancellation of a big party, gave the company a bad score.

"THE GEORGIAS" "THE GEORGIAS" BY TIM OWSLEY The new year is here and with it comes new ideas, new plans and new desires. In your inventory of the past year did you find that you had gained you did you find that you lost? If you lost have you rea- lized? If you made a gain then you must have used the right judg- ment at the right time. Is there any reason you can't use some good judg- ment in your plans of 1925? ```markdown ``` Human nature, I believe is misunderstood by everyone. Because because become so interested in his good or fortune that we forget ourselves. And when one don't understand himself, can he understand others follow him? I watch yourself mentally, morally, spiritually and financially you will soon come to the conclusion that you don't understand him. And I have found in my life that most men always do things and tell things that is best suited to their competence. You will not be tempted to them. And the cause of the friction between us and among us is what may be a benefit to you in no way. May the year of 1928 awaken each one to the fact and likewise the truth.

THE MUSICAL BUNCH THE MUSICAL BUNCH Jazz-Opera Eastern America is all talk about "buzz opera" after the recent symphony exploitation writer, Geo. Gershwin. They send you some one to write it no matter who he works has, go no wild over the rejuvenating J a z z the exception of Russia, and she won't now, but will later. PETER B. The well known occurrences in the kale are searching for their missing they are waiting **NEW PATTERN** for *Tin Pan Alley* to produce a *Tin Pan Alley* who will deliver music to many masterpieces, because they see in its production a gigantic box office attraction. Gen. Gershwin of New York, my good friend, has attempted to write a musical that John Kernan has programmed and played in it. Although it was received it was not what the people wanted. A few weeks later Harry Yerkes and his orchestra played a "jazz symphony" borrowed from W. C. Handy's St. Louis Blues and Beale St. Blues, and was an immediate sensation. They will be the first successful writer of an original jazz opera," a solid two hours of red hot jazz melody set to a simple story." Who is more capable of doing it than our own Race writers? Our white brothers have taken many our ideas musically and have written a musical that, but this time I am afraid they are up against it. They have written many mechanical, theoretical and musical pieces that this "jazz opera" will be written by our Race writers, who alone understand the harmonic and melodic that will give the creation originality. The plot of this opera could be centered in the southern atmosphere before and after the reconstruction period, depicting the hardships that were leaped upon our group and the many laws enacted against them. Then we could come up the line, showing the rapid progress made and the climax could show our group today, stand in the shoulder to shoulder with all nations of the world in all walks of endeavor. Our spiritual which have taken a firm grasp on the music world are a good forerunner for this much discussed "jazz opera" for in them is the real quality for a foundation. Today the library is not complete without our Race spiritual on its shelf. White choral organizations are featuring them and much credit should be given the original Fisk Jubilee singers, the Williams Jubilee singers, W. C. Buckner's Jubilee singers, Paul Roberson and our great tenor, Roland Hayes, who have popularized our own Race music, demonstrating to the music world its real musical value and refreshment. Such will be the effect of this opera on the people, and I don't see why our great composers have not grasped this great opportunity. It means fame and fortune to the one who delivers this work to the world. The ordinary slapstick song writer we have as much chance to have, is the graded graded graded and I would think a much better chance, due to the fact that he can and will produce originality ungarnished. It will be not unusual to read in the program, "This opera by Clarence Williams, Irwin Berlin, Chris Clare, John M. Crawford, Clarence Jones, J. Rosamond Johnson, Will Marion Cook, Lucky Roberts, W. C. Handy, and a host of writers that our Race are proud of. In closing I want to say Go to it, boys, it looks good, Rosa Ralsa, the famed opera stars have expressed their desire to sing the leading role of this "Jazz opera," so why wait any longer? Let us get the gray matter to functioning. Next week, beginning Monday, Jan. 11, we will have with us Jan. 12, we will have with us Skirin Charleston Symphonies.

What Price Friendship Ever since there have been records kept of human events, the value of friendship has been considered investigational. It is clear that the friendship of Damon and Pythias during the reign of the tyrant Dionisius. The Hebrew story of the friendship of Damon and Pythias is a spuriation to the manhood of the world. One of the most true and precious stories his disciples was "From henceforth ye are my friends." Is there any price that can be placed upon this golden child? Men, women and children have paid the supreme sacrifice for friendship. What greater love than this, that a man lay down his life to defend us. We should never part with a friend if we can retain him with honor. If he is weak, strengthen him. Let his children be with him. Standing with us provides us from a true friend. The price of friendship should be estimated as the most priceless jewel of human association. The friendship says that a friend is the richest of the gods, therefore priceless.

Well, we are here by be- half, Booker has recover- ed from her acce- dent in Sarasota, Pa. The hurdress that alone was a wonderful Christmas present. When they towed her to the hospital in Tampa she said she didn't know she had been to Tampa were very to PETER B. The greatest surprise of the old year was the naming of a beautiful little girl named Arnette good my playmates, "Coy" and predict he will be a little "preacher." I started the little angel Hill, my friend, who always arranged a little party for me, really outdressed herself this time. Everything you saw in the room was invited guests were Ethel McHillan and my buddy, "Tob," who runs a modern dry cleaning plant; Evelyn White and the Booker. When I arrived at the party dinner was over as I was three hours. Never saw it rain like it did in my life. It was impossible to show and tell, but down to the reges of several hundred. Mr. Lawson, the popular undertaker, called for me in his car, accounted for the crowd in the rain to their park, where their auditorium is located, which can accommodate several hundred and has a large stage. I predict in the near future all Race shows will show that is truly a wonderful place, and great to see. That kind for our people. Mr. Lawson's son, who was recently married to a great Ark, were my guests at the show in Hastings, Fla. They motored down from Palatka. That Lawson boy is a great man, and also motored down and several others Sandford And Sandford, Fla., is the celery city. Not only is it noted for celery, but it is also the real spirit. Sandford gave Sierra Green a turnaround business. Mr. Brock, the noted tailor, and Dr. Bruer arranged a little lunch for Mr. Collier and Mrs. Bruer entertained Miss Collier. At Orlando, Jervy Summons of Oranjeburg arranged a little lunch for a first-class bakery shop, entertained Mr. Collier. On our return to Orlando we show for the benefit of the Colony. Theressa Garnet of Florida Blossom fame is spending her vacation in Orlando likewise is "Ernest," one of the Blossom's mainstays. They gave her a private birthday party at Wildwood, Fla., Abe Wright, one of our greatest band leaders, spout the day with us and witnessed the night's performance. He said he enjoyed the Sandford band he has any band for 12 years, except George Bryant's band, and the show is a masterpiece. This way to join the Holdeamp's Smart Set Minstrels, where he is placed on the managing st. T. Mr. Holdeamp, the owner of the Smart Set, caught the band concocted by Mr. Bryant while his brother saw it another day. Silas green lost a day going out of Port Lauderdale, where the Smart all saw the show and I will tell you all about it next week. We also had a chance to see the famous O'Brien Georgia Minstrels. As space is short we can go to the concierge, but let me tell you of the conditions in Florida—they are the worst ever. No writer can adequately describe it for yourself. Everything covered room rent runs around fifteen dollars a week in the cities, a shoe shine is 20 cents. in any of the larger cities for four hours to ask for your mail. ```markdown ``` I don't believe 20 letters have been received by the entire company since I last met them. There hasn't been five letters received by the entire company while playing on the east coast, with the team coming in from the show and giving his letter three days to reach the show, then they are my accesses, go into a town with a contract and a tune telling act. Express is out of the question.

STEWARD'S STEWINGS By SMILING BILLY Minneapolis, Minn.—By request of Harry Hernstein, our agent, we were at the Palace Orpheum theater Thursday and Saturday nights in a orchestra contest, sponsored by the Paul Hotel, the direction of Henry Santry and his band. There were three of the best bands in the Twin Cities and we made the fourth. The loving cup was given to S. Paul Hotel orchestra and to our surprise we copped the second honors. Mr. Santry spake well of our little band. The boys really got a kick out of his performance, first time that some of them had been before the footlights. Papy Hall yelled: "Did you hear me cut that E-fat man, that snake trail?" Lonnie was the first to look as he came off the stage. Booker Christian made the trombone players take notice. Terry Crawford had the tenor men asking for whom he played, and he made one run on the old soul that he will never make again. Charlie Segars made them open their eyes and deserved much credit as that was his first time out with the bunch. Kid Puttle took care of the old trumpet, and do very much as he was not excited. THELMA GOES HOME Pittsburgh, Pa. — Miss Thelma Theophile is out of the hospital and is recovering from a broken Friday, Jan. 5, where she will remain until she is strong enough to return to the footlights. Mail will be sent to her at 12345 Her mother, Mrs. George Theophile, and her godchild, Sylvester Robinson, young star of the Lyrical Motion series, at Alicola B. Mitchell is still guarding her at 50 Pulton St., Pittsburgh. GUEST OF M'CARVERS Billy and Sadie McCarver have as a result played in four of three weeks at Port Huron, Mich., who will remain in the city for two of three weeks. They are also the only performers who have played in Port Huron and would be glad to see them at the McCarver home, 3125 Indiana WILL TYLER WRITES BENNY MOTEN'S BAND The writer received a fine letter from Henry Molen and his gang from Johnny Molen, and he gave it to the head of this way. I often hear this aggression over the radio and add to it the words, "I predeceit you will be insulting you get a showing in Chicago, you get a showing in Chicago, you get a showing in Chicago, for the Okeh Record company, for which they are exclusive artists." GEO. MORRISON'S ORCHESTRA George Morrison informs the writer that all is not well in the band. The members are active in curbing our activity, alming especially at face music, which has taken off 50 per cent due to this influence.

Unholstered Sewers An orchestra leader walked into a music house where he met one of the musicians, knowing each other of old, there was the usual greeting. When there was working, the latter where he was working, the latter replied, "in one of New York's unholstered sewers" (meaning, of course, one of the basement cabins).

The theater building in Broadway was a prominent figure in New York's theatrical life. Her palatial apartment at 202 W. 13th St. was often the venue for musical gatherings among show folks. The services which were held at the Mary Lane funeral parlor for the public, and then to St. Mark's Catholic Church, were attended by members of which she was a member, were largely attended by members of the profession. Among those who were present were Mrs. Leah Clark, Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Harper, Jessie Harris, Mercedes Gilbert, Alice Carter, Harry Kim, Jim Shater, W. C. Miller, and hosts of others. The pulverers were Charles Handy, Billy Pierce, W. C. Handy, Edgar Dowell, J. M. Miller and Bob Slater. Interment was at Punkert of St. Mark's officiating. Belasco Production Simma and Wiley Simms and Wiley, a western act, had its initial showing at the La Lace theater and also well known at Joe Simms' group well known at New York, but has been West for over a year and somewhere in the wild and woody he found a piano player who can dance, sing, play the piano and do lines, and do them well. That's a combination hard to beat, and, too, Dob is stopping right along with the New York act and that means much. **New Act** George Cooper, former partner of Bojangles Bill Robinson, has joined hands with the Anthony, and what are they doing though Emmett has at last been pledged right.

The beginning of the New Year it would be pleasing to see harmony existing between the performers and their accusers of the various theaters and the performers. Some theatrical managers on the circuit are all right. It is easy for one to see just where these rotten birds are located. Kansas City has been and is still the city. They shun the sunny South like they would some dreaded disease. Some of the more hard boiled actors take a chance, and a short while they hear their Therefore, let it be resolved: First, that the theater owners and managers come to a meeting that may come to a point that they are not dealing with cattle or merchandise; that the Colored performer is humane and respectful; Make their surroundings as congenial and pleasant as those of the patrons. They should suggest that the many producers produce something that is really worth while and interacting. If you can't produce something, you should stop stealing the other fellow's stuff, and break opening the other fellow's show by taking members of his com- The Lincoln The glad rats worn by Miss Wilson were really "hot to death." We believe they were "hot to death." Miss Wilson during the show will have a tendency to detract from her hard-earned popularity. We were glad to see Overlook street like a playground, as this happens to be his home. Low Down Johnson, who doubles in the theatre and the comedy, presented one original movie act with a one-string fiddle and a hot line of comedy chatter in the theatre, formerly with the Sparks circle, since this company two weeks ago in Oklahoma City, his home town. Details of this show: The cash results of this show are superior to the most and equal to any. The Eblon Theater What Fools Men, Why Women Love, Rod LaRue in Coming of Ann, with a wild westerner, Robert LaRue, Why Get Married? are only a few of the choice selections shown at this theater since the last writing, with its orchestra and this line of pictures, often seems to be "marching the dog." The Gem Theater This theater of screen excitement started the hall a-rolling with Harry Carey on New Years in the Prairie center, the center drama with thrilla, then Rex, and Black Cyclone. A lesson picture, entitled Let Women Alone, followed by a Wreckage and down by the Rob Grande, with William Demond in The Week was quite a nice week's experience for the beginning of a New Year.

We would not be the least bit surprised if they were to bring with something good. There is plenty of talent in the outfit.

She has never approached the heights attained by her famous sister, although, as I said, she is a capable artist. This may be her break.

City....State.... Notes PART 1—PAGE 4 THE NEW CIRCUIT Chas. P. Ralley and Joe Spiegelberger are fast gaining ground in the layout of canvases and circuit boards. He was formed a week earlier. It means better working conditions for the actors who have had to stand all kinds of treatment due to the heat and humidity of the travel. We hope to see the long railroad jumps cut out or better salaries paid to the artists, also the actors who are impressed in most of the houses. Another thing that should cease is the one day cancellation of acts. The actors are anion. Where are their activities now? Shameful the way some of the T. O. R. A. agents are handling the acts and a hull should be called. Problems with executives do not know these conditions exist and probably they do. The new circuit will fast gain popularity with the acts if they start in right. After all you have not to have the acts to build your circuits and your circuits won't live if you don't give houses the best kind of attractions. The acts have long been underpairs and there are cases where the owning head of an engagement and the acts have nothing left, save railroad fare to the next stand and sometimes not even on. On this circuit much money is taken in at the box offices, for the acts on some of the small white circuita and there is no reason why the acts should not receive a living wage. Of course, on some very few who have exacted some fine figures from the T. O. B. A. because they were real headliners and guaranteed box office attraction. "EBONY FOLLIES" S. H.

ATTENTION The names and addresses of managers of the following basketball teams should be forwarded to this office at once: Havana Next Year TIGER GOES TO GEORGIA FOR WORKOUT Cancels Engagements to Condition New York, Jan. 8. Tiger Flowers has called off all exhibition matches and all dates for appearances in theaters and has gone direct to Brunswick, where he will get into condition for his coming match with Harry Groh, which is slated Feb. 11. PETER B. Every possible move is being made in the match, but Walk Miller, the crafty Georgian, has Grobe's account that the forfeit is up. Somebody on the commission or administration our fawkes they reach the point where they are in a class to challenge the champion of any division; then comes a series of stopping the lease. Take the Dempsey case with Wills, for example. The commission was willing to how to Shade's manager, but along comes Fleury's offer to him at Flower's first Shade on condition that Flowers get as large a share of the purse as Dave did. Then the howl got louder. Many think Flowers can handle it, but Fleyn, manager of Shade, believes likewise or he would not have turned down the match or even asked for $2,500, which he knew was way out of the question. There is something wrong with the commission. Another bit of wrongdoing charged up to the commission is the fact that they allow Greb to keep on boxing after Feb. 1, while Miller has canceled all of Flowers' contracts. Many will try to step out of the match. Flowers is the first man of our group in a long while who has had a good chance to win the title in any division. Lee Johnson was highly impressed by Flowers and the latter disposed of him in one round. Eddie Dorsey came along with an eye on the crown of the lightweights, but Leonard floored him in the second. Both of these were the first. When Willard gor hold of Jack Johnson's title in 1915, nearly 11 years ago, it ended the dark-skinned hot on the trail of the commission in contenders in each division, but there is that everlasting color prejudice that holds them back. He has his ability never to lose his head or unmercifully host up a man, has won himself a host of friends. He smiles even when victories, as in the McCormick race, fail to lighten and in every city and town the fans are with him solid. These same fans are on the trail of the commission in this city or any other city if they are in the boxing game lily white. Flowers is busy with his training in his home town. When the gonks sounds next month the Georgia Dealer asks for their money they have ever had, and in the morning Grob and his manager wink at the commission and try to feature out how to slidestop the Grob evidently feels himself slimming. Winchester Hi Gets Off With Good Start Winchester, Ky. Jan. 8.—Winchester high school's basketball quintet game of the season last night against the fast Versilies high school by a 26-13 score. Coach Nance's tossers flushed a smooth-working attack that was too hard to shoulder the burden of the offensive work. Biddick and Burnam played well on the defense. Kiley and Kyle were on the offense.

BARBER SHOP STILL FLO BARBER SHOP WILLIAMS IS STILL FLORIDA CHAMPION --- Jacksonville, Fla. Jan. 7. — The boxing card at the Strand Theater Tuesday night was a great drawing card, for all seats were filled with eager fans to see what would be the result of the match between Battling Hustlers and the Saxannah Worship Williams of Saxannah, Ga. Both men were strongly backed and the loudest wheoping was done by the ring several times before and always did good work. He entered the ring amid loud applause by his backers and showed splendid physical fitness.

His fans were also impressed that came immediately to his advantage, caused many to begin reckoning how this match would end. The other arrangements settled. Mack sounded the gong and the boxers were at it with the fury of two panthers. Men with an eye to physical prowess took the pen of youth, which was Buster's over maturity, which was Williams.

I JUST, LEFT HIM, AND HE WAS ON HIS WAY TO CHURCH= DEFEND CLARK QUINT WINS 2 OF 3 CAGE GAMES Defeat Morris Brown; Lose to Morchouse Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 11—Clark university's fast-paced basketball quintet slipped away on the long Brown this evening, chalking up their third victory in four starts since the beginning of the season. Coach Sam Taylor's basket tossers hard-hitting and hard-shooting Mosehore Tiger posed them out by eight points in a scary clash on Jan. 7. In a warm confict found Clark back in its stride with Gene Beck, the Evanson lad, raised Cain on Clark's gridiron last season, leading the panther attack. Athletics and speed has marked Beck for a guard position, the Illinois boys' shooting eye sticks with him. Playing Morris Brown he caged four straight shots from the field, three of them belts long tosses from the midfloor. Dalton and Squat Johnson the covered and Morris Brown guards, but the Evanson boy was allowed to slip through too often to the firing line. Clarke's Panthers met their match in the speedy Morehouse outfit a week earlier, when the closest foulters came to the Tigers in a seven season to the Tigers in a six-score. Both teams passed and shot well, but Morehouse took the floor with an advantage in size that wrestled Norris, Archer and Sykes turned in clever floorwork for Morehouse and in repeated occasions broke through the Dalton. Clarke's scoring age, got plenty of Morehouse protection, but managed to account for 15 of his team's points. Trayster, Clarke sent him off and smashed the Morehouse offensive several times when it was well on its way up the floor. Gene Beck unleashed his running mate, Kept his territory well matched, Squat Johnson worked loose repeatedly, but his eye was bad and he missed set-up that should have changed the score. Swamp Y. M.

It was the second perp before the Y had scored a single basket. Gene Beck's fast guarding worked well with the Y forwards. Captain Trayler at corner turned in a clever performance. WILLIAMS IS ORIDA CHAMPION The first round, and all of the others of the 10 except the fifth, were Buster's three in the fifth round on a knock-down. Weller from a knock-down. Through the seventh to the tenth Williams showed he was receiving severe punishment at the hands of Buster, whose wind and rain had been so severe that he could increase as the fight proceeded. After the tenth round, in which Buster nearly demolished Williams, the boxers took their seats on the floor and soon the referee announced Buster as the winner, and a great yellow went up from all sides. Buster remains the belt and is proclaimed wolverine weight boxer of Florida. Loses on Foul New York, Jan. 3 — Rufus Campbell, light heavyweight boxer of the 369th infantry, lost on a foul when he knocked out Jack Denton, also of the "hool fighters" outfit, with a backhand to the referee in the seventh round of a scheduled eight-round at the 102d Engineers' armory.

Lee felt the commission that—but it was just a part of the to accept Shade instead of Flowers. The boxing fathers noted when he sat and fists clenched. Todd held it in his hands and Miller armed to take on Shade if they (the commission) so desired. As was thought when the situation was over, he had to powder. Now, in so far as Leo was concerned regarding the "color line" end, it was only a business proposition to get Shade the assignment, not to better than that.

"MIXED" FOOTBALL TEAM JOHN CONNOR, well known in college football circles and in recent years, is a Giants' is bending his efforts with a well-known white promoter toward assembling a professional "mixed" team to tour the country next season. Whether the project will materialize remains to be seen. It strikes me that the team, which could win 60 per cent of its games might be a paying proposition. John believes in the age-old mantra "Nothing ventured, nothing gained." SEASIDERS IN VICTORY OVER HILLTOPPERS Pile Up 48-to-11 Score at Hampton BY THOMAS YOUNG Hampton, Va. Jan. 21. — Speed rarely comes in these parts and unprepared for "curie" Brown, spiced by continuous shooting of Hampton's five-man offense, featured the game here with the visiting St. Louisburg in which the visitors crumpled to the unharmonious tone of 45-14. Everyone had a hand in the victory this evening, as even the two guards came up to tally twice or more each, but the bulk of the injury refused to be held in check, rumped away with eight double-deckers. Chet Jones was second in scoring homers, invading five shots in line, while Alexander stole in and registered four shots, two of these results, was previously staged showing body, nearly contributed more or less to the scoring. Statistics are given below. Much can be said about the defeated five concerning shooting, but their play was a bit exciting despite the fact that their passes were often missed. Visitors attack, sinking two basket There were many times during the game when the galleries arced in exertion, and the brown worm dribble down the floor and heave an arrow-like, seemingly impossible, but dangerously true pass to a player waiting under the basket, to a player wading in the basket, to a player seen in the basket between the bunched and confused Hilltopppers with the ball in his control. Or maybe it would be Hargrove or Captain Jones or Alexander. However, Petersburg tasted victory in one mild form when, with about four minutes left for play in the first half, Hampton's second team, cont.

CARLISLE CLUB MAKES BID FOR EASTERN TITLE The Carlisle Field club of Washington, D. C., is making a determined bid to show in the eastern basketball championship, past week traveling to Philadelphia and defeating the Flashes on the latters' floor at Waltz Dream. The low ceiling and slippery floor, handicaps to other fives, and no effect on the Capital city boys. Two nights later the Flashes journeyed to Atlantic City and walloped the Vandals, 35 to 26 this after the Vandals had beat the Buccaneers and Panthers, the latter team on their own floor. The Superior five went down to defeat before the Flashes of Jersey City. The Flashes of Philadelphia also went down to defeat before the Baltimore Athletics. Howard university, from the influence boys have played no one with any rating. Their schedule calls for games with the Buccaneers, Vandals and side-stopping the Panthers, the strongest quintet in the East, though beaten by Renaissance, to 18. They meet the Buccaneers Friday, Jan. 15, and will be stepping into the audience will be watched with interest. Attempts to get the Flashes and Panthers together have so far failed. The Flashes' defeat in Baltimore came with a win out for the Flashes and the sum paid was in cancellation of the Flashes' contract with "Chic" Edwards, manager. The specific names of players was not mentioned in this contract, but the players who played Philadelphia Flashes vs. Athletics Baltimore is but two hours from Philadelphia, which isn't enough excuse for a manager not bringing his team. Of Loondi there doesn't seem to be any. The stunt of assembling players from anywhere for one or two players to have divided himself from his team and squand at the Renaissance frutes, ready to grab two or three for the "Loondi eastern trip," which in itself may be good as long as he can get himself to squawk about "not being beaten with his regular line-up." A little attention paid to the abilities of Pittsburgh's younger players, or the development of same, and Loondi would still be good for the national championship. Morehouse Defeats Morris Brown, 48-31 Morehouse, weak because of intermittent practice, failed in the first stages of the game and was led by Morris Brown. Morehouse was further weakened by the loss of Archer, who was out of the game with a sprained ankle. However, the memoirs of Marshall Calhoun that they were Southeastern champions and by displaying the real Tiger light slowly crept up on the leash. Taylor was the high point man of the game. Clark and Sykes were in fair form. Roberts of Morrisown and some spectators showing Jesse Wood and Bradley were in good form and it was necessary to watch them closely the entire game. Final score: Morehouse, 48; Morris Brown, 31.

Finally, I have at some time seen 20 of the 22 members on the above teams in action. Ritchie and Stevenson are the exceptions, but reports warrant their selection. I have pursued to define the various positions and give the requirements necessary to fill each position. Other selections have members of the various teams. All-American are supposed to be perfect players. There are no perfect players but the above are, in the nearest perfect. Take it or leave it. FAY SAYS- MOREHOUSE RUNS UP 52-T0-31 SCORE ON ALABAMA NORMAL Yes sir, folks, the weather may be cold and blastery, but these folks here are looking over their sticks already for the coming sea" season. We have above Victor Daly, a former student of Washington and Miss Mae Stewart. Ah, well, Miss Stewart's picture speaks for her beauty. FAY HOWARD VS. WILBERFORCE THE coming game between Howard university's crack basketball team and that of Wilberforce is attracting the attention of the country. Howard has three former Chicago high school stars from Wendell Phillips—Spears, Simpson and Johnson. Spears got all kinds of mention on all-city and all-state newsletters. Lester Johnson and Dennis Simpson also received much praise. Simpson played football at the blue and white aggregation of baseball players. Lester and Spears played freshman basketball at Howard. On the other hand at Wilberforce is one of the best dribblers in the country and a star guard in the perimeter for his share of glory, while Ritchie of football fame learned his baseball knowledge at Ecston high along with Beck, who is now in the team. Wilberforce basketball find, Yerby, who played against the Spurs-Johnson-Simpson combination while at Hyle Park, is on the second team at Wilberforce and the game against the Washington lads. Howard will be handicapped because Wilberforce is using two officials, both white and both from the team, to game to the letter T with no "ifs" and "ands" about it. The team with the greatest amount of reserve strength will win because these men are the best scapes them. An outsider will be called upon to keep time and an outside newspaper man will keep score. The Ohio folks want a victory and the team will escape them. therefore the necessary precautions. Basketball officating in the past has been almost as bad as football. The game, however, is improving, but there are lots of 'legs' and 'hands' that need to be cleaned up. One, for instance, is the taking of the score book by the home team and the call-up of penalized fouls, on right after the other, some times as many as 15 in a row, making it impossible for a visiting team to win. We are growing ting against basketball at the present time as the courts that are used by some of the teams. Of course, we are fully aware that in some towns limits are not required to be obtained, but that does not remedy the situation. In Ohio the conference does not permit a game to be played MOREHOUSE RUN SCORE ON ALL Montgomery, Ala., Jan. 8. —The Morehouse college five of Atlanta, Ga., invaded the lair of the head coach of the brilliant basketball game, 52 to 31. This was the first game of the season for the local team and the students cheer them in their stand against the brilliant backers of the Southeastern conference. With the referee's whistle at 8:15 a hectic game was started. Neither player was allowed to run two minutes, when Morehouse broke through with a free throw and State Normal with a basket. The Morehouse was smooth functioning, and an oilled machine of experience was soon displaying a quality brand of basket ball. The point scorer for the裁判, with 19 of the 52 points to his credit, Sykes and Clark at forward lived up to the challenge, and Archer at guard held the local intensive at bay time and time again. The short pass was the feature of the visitors' offensive and their skill, and Archer made the game very interesting. CAPITAL CITY GOLFERS SAYS- on a floor that is smaller than 35 by 60. There cannot be basketball games when one floor is so small that there is no out of bounds and another out of bounds towards one of the baskets. Then two, some of the floors are dangerous to players in case they fall a spinner is likely to go into the leg or body. FOR NATIONAL TITLE **D**AN MOHI2 of Willerforce suggests a national championship between Morehouse, Howard, Willerforce, Hampton and other colleges. He suggests Chicago, Cleveland, Washington or New York for the place. But who will be the promoter? Willerforce splendid one and would at once and for always settle the dispute as to who is national collegiate champions. LYNCH CONWAY HAVING used Lynch Conway in two games, namely the Armstrong high of Washington against Phillips in 1926, high of Louisville against Phillips in 1926, we can say he is the best bet yet. He can be reached at the city hall, the high of Louisville, the city engineer. Just a little inside on his record as an athlete. He was graduated from Peoria high school in 1926, in major sports in four years, namely three in football, three in track, four in baseball and four in basketball, four in baseball and track teams in his senior year.

Both teams played stellar ball and it was a matter of the better team winning. The first half closed with the Phi Betas leading, 10-6. The Alphas came back strong and by a desperate three minutes to play the score good 13-13. Then it was that Jackson of the Phi Betas dribbled through the entire Alpha team and from a difference of two yards put the Phi Betas in the lead. A short while later Brown, who had been watched closely all through the game, made a beautiful shot from the corner to close the scoring of the evening. Jackson, the fast, flashy guard of the Phi Beta, was the star of the game. Three of them entered centre field and then made perfect field goals. Twice he made good foul shots. He answered eight points for game as well as redemption. Redemption check. Pannell played his usual stellar game at guard. Brown, Pughsley and Johnson were not able to score. They were guarded. Their playing, however, stood out pre-eminently all during the game. For the Alphas they were guarded. For the pointers, with four each to their credit. Wright played a great game at center, but was only able to add two points. The work of Clark and much larger team being registered. The Omegas, Alphas and Phi Beta are now all three tied for first win two games and lost one. The Phi Beta, however, beat the Alphas, which in turn beat the Omegas.

This treatment is based on the famous Dr. King's New Discovery for Coughs. You take just one teaspoonful and hold it in your throat for 15 or 20 seconds before swallowing it. The prescription is for coughs and heals soreness and irritation, but also loosens and removes the phlegm and congestion which are the real cause of the coughs. So the worst cough usually disappears quickly. Dr. King's New Discovery is for coughs, chest colds, bronchitis, spasmodic croup. Etc. Fine for children, too - no harmful drugs. Very economical, the dose is only one teaspoonful. At all good drugs, Ask for DRKINGS NEW DISCOVERY FOR DRKINGS Agents New PART Han PAYMENT ORDER NOW - MAY 17TH American Wooden Mills Co.

GEEFEN & CO Alpha Men Launch War On "Color Line" in Colleges Detroit, Mich., Jan. 15.—Laying more emphasis than ever upon that program which has been its chief concern during the last five years, the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity, oldest among all the collegiate Greek letter organizations within the Race, held its 15th annual convention in this city last week. Delegates from all sections of the country discussed not only the problem of inducing larger and larger numbers of youth to enter college, but the methods of financing them while in college, and even of breaking through the walls of race prejudice which are being reared against them in the largest American universities. For the first time in its history the fraternity which inflated the now nationwide movement to bring the youth of the Race into America's universities found itself face to face with the problem of keeping them there despite growing opposition to their presence. Collegians "Too Complacent" The keynote of the educational phase of the week's convention was sounded in the public address of Dr. Robert H. McCormick, the founder of Education of Today. The minor note, the fight against race prejudice in schools and colleges, was sounded by General President Raymond Cannon. "There is too much complacency in the college graduate," said Dr. Lewis. "There is too marked a tendency to believe that you can become the first to receive this degree or that award. The test of education is not where you studied or what you won for studying, but what can you do with it. This is something that this race needs, we can't afford to rest content a minute until we have not merely mastered an art, but we have put it to some very practical use." President Cannon, continuing the subject, commented upon the success of the program in Goose Island School in which thousands of youth throughout the country were reached by the program, and in Chicago which overloaded the Wendell Phillips high school when Dr. W. E. B. Dillin spoke, and a speaker from the George that reached hundreds, to the mailing of 1,000 letters that drew responses from the leading figures in the nation's public life. To Fight Jim Crow "But our work isn't over when the youngsters are ready to vote," he pointed out. "There is the money problem, and were working out now a scholarship and endowment program where students can get freedom of American education. Already the fraternity has been called upon to fight discrimination in schools in the Athens, Ohio, case." Chicago's delegation arrived here Sunday morning in a special car attached to the Motor City express, which represented the Xi Liambula chapter, of which Dr. William Tate is president and Dr. William Wienman is senior. Brentley Cyrus represented Thi chaucer, of which Richard Harewood is Kills Catarrh Germ In Three Minutes chronic, catarrh germs, no matter how bad, and cases of bronchial Asthma now yield to the amazing discovery of a French scientist.
