MUSSOLINI TALKS TO AFRICA --- [By Cable to the Defender] Tripoli, April 23.—Premier Benito Mussolini, the indomitable little figure who is already being hailed as the Caesar of Italy's new Roman empire, last week swung down a new highway on his march to world power. In a dramatic demonstration under a blazing tropical sun, he gave substance to the rumor that Italy and Africa had entered a secret alliance. He lined up the troops of England, and by them was hailed as chief. The rising power of the Mediterranean joined hands with the dark-skinned soldiery of Africa in a spectacle whose gorgeous brilliance matched its tremendous significance. Europe's diplomats gasped at the horrific assaults and asked each other what new stroke Italy might try with her newest ally, Africa, at her back. And even as white nations who had hurled at Africa nothing but a century-old hymn of hate shuddered at the new combination. Mussolini, the new combination, Mussolini, the new combination, the Mediterranean, took his new dark allies what he expected of them. "Stand Scady!" "No one knows," he declared, "when the moment will come that needs you. Stand ready, my brethren, to grasp that day when dawns, for history waits for no one." Burnished cullesses, flashing in Africa's sunlit, and the cheers of the best-drilled troops on the dark continent gave him his answer. Carried away with the enthusiasm of the moment, the giant troopers from Somaliland, heirs to a military glory traced back through centuries, broke into war dawns and wild shouts of the enemy. They sailed in the new alliance a new awakening of their glory. Giant Troopers The regiments of Erythean Ascaris, soldiers of gigantic stature overpowering any troops whom Europe could throw on a battlefield, filed by under the proud eyes of Mussolini. They seized their new chief on their shoulders, carried him to his car and gave him tremendous oustions. Veteran, newspapermen insisted that they had seen such a colorful enthusiasm. No color line has marred Italy's dealings with darker races, and Mussolini was not surprised to be created by dark generals, surrounded by their dark subterrens and military aids.

King, Democrat, of Utah. The resolution embodied a statement of some of the important facts relating to Haiti and its occupation by the military forces of the United States. It declared that the actual government of Haiti is in the hands of Gen. John H. Russell, United States high commissioner, supported by the military forces of the United States, and that President Louis, home and the Haitian council of state are subject to his will and act in accordance with his directions.

Alexander of Atlanta, Ga., addressed the Saturday morning session of the Interdenominational Sunday School congress on the subject of "Christian Citizenship and the Races." The thousands of delegates who packed the auditorium to bear Dr. Alexander were astounded by the speaker opened up on Race conditions in the South and condemned in no uncertain terms the injustices as heaped upon our Race by white Americans. So surprised were they that many were upon their feet before Dr. Alexander had taken his seat. Questions were hurled at him in rapid succession and blisses could be heard in several quarters of the auditorium, for which a Jim Crow law was passed after it was known that members of the race had not attended the convention. In spite of the many interruptions Dr. Alexander went on with his speech. A World Problem "The great race problem that confronts the United States is an international problem, one that confronts every nation. It is a question of how far the majority has the right to enforce its opinion as it affects the minority. In the United States there are 100,000,000 Negroes, he said. "This majority has decided how this minority shall travel, what educational advantages it shall have, what justice it shall have in the courts and where it shall live. "Negroes are told where they must ride on trains and it is always in the most dangerous coaches," he said. "They pay the same fare, but don't receive the same accommodations. "In the South, where we have separate schools for our Negroes, we spent $29.72 per year for each white child in school, and $7.12 for each Negro.

Makes Position Known ** PRICE TEN CENTS ONFAB PENS DARROW IN QUIZ FOR JURORS BY NETTIE GEORGE SPEEDY Detroit, Mich., April 23.—"You, I presume, have heard of the organization called the Klan, haven't you?" was the first question asked by Clarence Darrow, senior counsel for the now famous Sweet case, as he was examining the veniirement. Being answered in the affirmative, Mr. Darrow quickly followed with the question, "You, perchance, do not happen to belong to that organization, do you?" which shows that the defense will strive to select a jury entirely bereft of any affiliation with the Ku Klux Klan. The second trial of the case opened before Judge Frank Murphey of the prosecutors, on Monday morning. As early as 9 o'clock the room was filled with spectators. The streets presented a scene of a half holiday. It was a cosmopolitan group which allowed its way into the court room. Mixed Group Present Representatives from the Negro-Caucasian club from the university at Ann Arbor, Mich., attended in a body. It was a mixed group and the club has its motto, "Social Equality." Aside from the racial interest in the case, the popularity of Judeo Murphy acts as a magnet upon the club, freely voiced of his fair and impartial rulings in the former trial, and the consensus of opinion is that the defendants have their interests best guarded because they are protected by such a learned and unbiased jurist. Upon the opening of court Mr. Darrow moved for a separate trial for each of the defendants, and the court ordered that Henry Sweet would be the first of the defendants to be tried. Henry Sweet is charged with murder. He was in the home of his brother, Dr. Ossian H. Sweet, at Charlevolk and Garland Avena, on the evening of Sept. 8 last when a mob gathered in front of the house with the alleged avowed purpose of driving Henry Sweet from his home and the neighborhood. It is the contention of the state that shots fired from a gun held in the hands of Henry Sweet killed Leon C. Briener, a member of the mob gathered in front of the Sweet home. Henry, who is just 21 years old, is the youngest brother of Dr. Sweet. He was in his senior year at Wilberforce and was expected to next year for school when the tragedy occurred in front of his brother's home. Dr. Sweet had purchased a home in a neighborhood popped by whites. He moved it a creeped outside on his street and joined the place with stones.

E.E.ROBBINS MUSICIAN OF NOTE, IS DEAD Young Pianist Passes Away at Home Edward Everette Robbins, one of the best known of Chicago's young musicians, passed away at his home, Cedar Grove, Illinois, early Friday morning after an illness for several months. His death was due to heart trouble. Everette Robbins was 27 years of age, came to Chicago from his home in Oaklin, in 1916, to reside here with his grandmother, Mrs. T. E. Vickey, and his uncle, George R. Clark. He entered Wendell Phillips high school and the American Con- Ave. early Friday morning after an illness and several months. His death was due to heart trouble. Everett Robbins, 77 years of age, came to Chicago from his home in Geese Okin, in 1916 to reside here with his grandmother, Mrs. C. E. Marsh, and his uncle, George R. Clark. He entered Wendell Pughin school and the American Conservatory of Music and was graduated from both with distinction. Immediately after graduation he entered the ranks of Chicago professional pianists and almost at once established a reputation for himself. He musiced with rapid strides that correlated with which he was connected were always in great demand. Robbins' first introduction to the jazz world came when he made a concert with the Smith, America's foremost blues singer and the "Jazz Hounds." Because of his ability as an all-around performer, often along with his own band, he made a manner of meeting and greeting those who knew him, he was given the sobriquet of "Happy" and it was the name of his band with him throughout his brief career. In 1919 Robbins went to Milwaukee as pianist for Like's orchestra, and he had to that he made such a reputation that upon return to at the head of his own band. He remained there, playing in one of the leading exclusive concert companies, some through illness to return to Chicago. Aside from his playing he was also known as a composer, having to create some music, "That No. 99's Bluesiness if I Do," was perhaps, the best known of all his numbers. He has made numerous piano and phonograph recordings, radio fans within a wide radius of Milwaukee, where he was the first member of our face to broadcast. both in Milwaukee and in Chicago was responsible for the breakdown in his health which resulted in his death, particularly in the touch to his grandmother, who although advanced in age, in strong and active, and it was because of this attachment that he refused to contemplate his death, as was suggested to him. His grandmother, his uncle and younger sister, Hortense Love, were with him at the university establishment of Emmanuel Joseph Olivet Baptist church, of which Robbins was a member, conducted the services. Numerous resolutions were made by the congregation beyond and the Olivet choir, which he has long been a member, under the direction of Miss Mattle numbers. An orchestra treating musical numbers. An orchestra that the musician's local also attended. Mr. Robbins was well known in chairman, internal life of Milwaukee and Chicago and Chicago's 32d degree Mason.

FLAY CHURCHES FOR "JIM CROW" POLICY FLAY CHURCHES FOR "JIM CROW" POLICY (Continued from Page 1) in territory three times too small for them. "Negroes do not receive justice in the courts because folks say it won't do to convict a white man on evidence submitted by a Negro." he said. Country Unsafe "A country that cannot guarantee protection to every individual by law will ultimately not be a safety country in which to live," he declared. "I do not advocate intermarriage; that is not necessary to Christian solution of the problem," he said. "But Jesus Christ taught respect for personality if He taught anything, and the final rule by which personality will be judged is not race, but that race. That race is the only which is capable of being Christlike. Loving humanity, being a true Christian, is to wish every race to have the fullest advancement of which it is possible." Asked what he thought of repealing the Jim Crow laws of the South, I believe in the repeal of unjust laws, and it is unjust. Another question asked of Dr. Alexander. "Do you think that educated Negroes are more hostile to whites?" was answered; "Naturally so. As the mind is cultivated, more clearly the industries done." Only eight members of our Race were in the segregated section of the auditorium to listen to the talk made by Dr. Alexander and others. We were able to draw a note of explanation from Dr. Hopkins, secretary of the international organization, who described the misunderstanding that brought the convention to Birmingham, and declared that steps should not be taken without would not in the future accept an invitation to meet in a section of the country that discriminates against part of its members.

He could be the victim of the incident was such that the persons accused would not be given a fair trial because of the refusal or neglect of local officials or citizens to punish crimes. Federal Offense The attorney general of the United States, under the provisions of the Berger bill, would be authorized to institute through his proper subordinate officer in the district in which mob violence has occurred, proceeding to compel the court to compel the forfeiture of the sum of $10,000 from the county in which the mob violence was committed. The action would be brought in the name of the United States against the county and the sum obtained would go to the person injured or his family if killed, or to the county if the person killed has no family. If the forfeiture is not paid the United States district court would be empowered to levy execution upon any property of the county to collect the forfeiture. In the event that a person is seized one county and injured or killed in another county, the court would be jointly and severally liable to pay the forfeiture. PAT HARRISON IN PLEA FOR SEGREGATION Wants Restrictive Law for Washington Washington, D. C., April 22.—While a bill to permit the National Press club to erect its building on F St. to a height of 140 feet above the curb was under consideration by the senate last Thursday, Senator but Harrison, Democrat, of Mississippi took position to elude the people of the District of Columbia for their failure to check our people from moving into so-called white sections. He contended that our taking over of white sections is destroying property values and shifting residential sections. "New Jersey Ave was once the home of the people" he said. "Its values were high its location attractant; but now look at it." Continuing, he said: "Colored people moved in and on it; the white people sacrificed and bought elsewhere. As the white people moved farther west and farther north the Colorado population, one by one, died, and in proportion to the numbers that did follow values declined. We Kept Expanding "This situation continued until the Colored residents forced themselves as far as 14th St. Some thought that surely the movement would then stop. But no; ambitious ones of the lot dreamed of blocks beyond, and so the Colored families were clined among them bought up to 15th St. At every step values went down. And so today it matters not where you may select 'to build your home or live it will be but a short time to the availability of property. Will be shattered in the property, be declared on the invasion of the Colored population. Oh, the Poor White "There must be some consideration given to this question. Poor people, age, even widows, who possess perhaps nothing but a home, have experienced their life savings sacrificed because some of the Colored population thought and moved next door to them. "Restricted areas for whites and Colored make for the stability of values and the common contentment of both. Any other policy, such as we have experienced in Washington, makes differences between the races and makes differences between the races and instability of property values, but estrangements and bad feeling. "Why the business people and the residents of the District of Columbia remain silent I cannot understand. On the other hand they indorse for high office men of the Colored three invasions; men who appear as lawyers in cases in the supreme court of the United States to test the validity of restrictive ordinances. So I say that sometimes I cannot but feel aggrieved at the lack of interest upon the part of the District population in having some assistance to cure the evil." YOUTH CARRIED OVER DAM IN BOAT; KILLED Raleigh, N.

ABBOTT MEETS COOLIDGE IN CONFAB R. S. ABBOTT MEETS COOLIDGE IN CONFAB (Continued from Page 1) United States district attorney's office in northern Illinois. International Interests Despite the haze that White House spokesmen have managed to throw over the deliberations between the president and the Illinois leaders, it has become general knowledge that their interview covered the widest range of not merely national but international interests. It has been common gossip, for instance, that the administration has not been pleased with the press comments upon administration conduct in Haiti. After the Chicagouans left Wednesday from several distinct White House sources came the allegation that President Coulidge had allowed their discussion of Haitian affairs to proceed to the point Wednesday where several very clear conclusions were reached. What direct evidence will follow these could not be ascertained. The president and Mr. Abbott became pointedly frank in their exchange of opinion upon domestic problems. Mr. Abbott was firm in his delineation of what would be the Defender's attitude, and he left no room for doubt in the mind of the Races, who were in what the Race expects of the administration. Thursday was completely occupied with lengthy sessions with the president's advisers. As several of the problems upon which their mission specially turns were taken up in detail by the department heads themselves, the debate became what capital spokesmen described as "very direct." Thursday's conferences, it is known, accomplished fashion than either the Illinoisans or the administration heads had dared to home. Plans have been laid among Washington's politically prominent for the entertainment of the distinguished visitors, but they have been so constantly engaged with Republican party heads that to date their social program has suffered. Thursday an unexpected contact extended their conference program until late in the day, but neither Mr. Abbott nor Mr. McGill could be induced to state exaggeration that what development had caused the change. Thursday night the Defender publisher and the Illinois attorney left the capital for New York, where a series of meetings has been scheduled for them with prominent public figures. RESCUE KIDNAPED WOMAN FROM 'FLAT' A daring method to obtain a new inmate for an alleged disorderly house by Ridhaping was barred Saturday by the Third district police officer when an inmate was arrested. 37th St. and 38th St. by Margaret Walle, 27-year-old white woman from Phoenix, Ariz., and placed under arrest Mrs. Edith Ivy, Ollie Craig, 21, 3426 South parkway; Doris Bide (white), 25, 127, 130 Calmier Ave., Phoenix; Robert Bide (white), 25, 127, 130 Calmier Ave., Phoenix; and Clifford Williams, familiarly known to his friends as "Diamond Tooth Cliff." Mrs. Ivy was booked on a charge of powdering and Williams on three charges—rape, pandering and violating the rules taken in the raid were booked as inmates of a disorderly house. The charges against Williams grew out of the story told the police by Julius Waller, husband of Mrs. Waller, who accused Williams of doping them on liquor after he had petroleum home, 4227 Calumet Ave, when they met him at an auto filling station April 8 at 42d St, and Michigan Ave. Later he kidnapped Mrs. Waller, taking her to a roam, to then 205 E. 55th St., after throwing her husband out of his auto on the highway of Indiana harbor, according to the couple's statement.

At 42d and Michigan Ave. they stopped at an oil station, where they encountered Williams in his car and asked him the way he was driving. According to their story, Williams told them he lived in Indiana Harbor and would go with them and show them the way. But it was cold. He wanted a drink before starting and they accepted his invitation to his home and drank with him. A few minutes later they were unconscious they said. Mrs. Walter told the police she was conscious of seeing Williams standing her husband against a fence on the highway. She became unconscious again and did not come to until the next day, when she discovered she was in the rear of 4251 Calumet Ave. and learned that she had been kept there all night. --- CONSUMPTION CAN BE RELIEVED MARVELOUS REMEDY CALLED LUCULENT HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR THE RELIEF OF TUBERCULOSIS AND ASSOCIATED CONDITIONS Don't wait until it is too late.

C., April 23.—The question of whether or not southern states are disfranchising our people in violation of the Constitution was injected into a discussion of the prohibition law on the floor of the senate hall. Wednesday. Senator William E. Borah, Republican of Idaho, contended that laws disfranchising our Race in southern states are within the Constitution. Senator Robert F. Kennedy of Maryland, argued that the South had solved its suffrage problems despite the Constitution. This discussion was begun when Senator Susan Collins of the Volunteer hearings on modification of the Volunteer act as "a great campaign to find a way by which to evade the Constitution of the United States without apparently doing so." Its declaration of the fundamental question involved the enforcement and upholding of the Constitution, "not only in letter, but in spirit." He flagged the proposal to leave to the Senate the enforcement of the Constitution. When Senator Borah declared that the great debate prior to the Civil war was over the question of "whether or not the states should determine what laws should be enforced and what should not, under the institution of the States." "Severe Brute interrupted to say that the senator will remember, however, that when the South asked that the fugitive slave law be enforced, legislatures throughout the free states convinced. In just the manner the senator from Idaho has reprobed so strongly, for the purpose of defeating the rights of the South under the law," and passed personal liberty laws. He added that "Judges and jurors, too, refused to put the law into execution." Senator Borah asked the question if Senator Bruce contended that "the northern states, which undertook by legislation to nullify the provisions of the Constitution, which save the power to state the right to follow their slaves were applying constitutional principles? They were simply evading, nullifying and destroying the Constitution itself." Senator Borah said. Senator Bruce agreed with him and said that it illustrates the fact that "when laws undertake to fly in the future, a future they will not be observed." "Did the South, after the Civil war, determine for itself, without regard to the 14th and 15th amendments to the Constitution, to be a nation whether it would or would not have Negro suffrage rifted upon its neck?" Senator Bruce asked. "Did not every southern man of every station in life exercise every power that lay in his hands, in consequence of that frightful course?" "So far as I know," replied Senator Borah, "every law passed by the southern states and now in force with reference to Negro enfranchisement, has been sustained by the supreme court of the United States as constitutional." Senator Bruce declared that "there is nothing I regard with more than a vote, and I was a boy, living in a remote countryside, all the white citizens of that community were banded together like brothers for the purpose CABBAGE AND SAUSAGES "I have doctored with the best doctors in the United States. Some said one thing and some another was asking me to want to cut me the hair with MYATR and now eat, cabbage, sausage and anything I want to. Nothing hurts me." It is a simple, hardless preparation of cabbage from the intestinal tract and allows the inflammation which causes practically all stomach, liver and intestinal diseases. One dose will convince or money refounded. At all drugstores—Ady. 唱 of nullifying those amendments to the Federal Constitution, and feeding the wish of Congress when it endeavored to enforce them, and thank God, they defeated it." Senator Borah charged that Senator Bruce over preaching the doctrine of communism in the senate. When Senator Bruce denied this charge, Senator Borah repeated the charge and said anarchy. The senator from Maryland asked the able senator from Maryland to contend that the southern states are now in violation of the Constitution and in violation of the supreme court decision of federal antiterrorism. The news of the South" Senator Bruce asked. "I mean to say that the South has solved its own suffrage problems in its own way, and it has solved them so wisely, despite constitutional limitations. The whole country has acquired in its conduct," Senator Bruce replied. BRAZILIAN DENOUNCES U. S. FOR ITS SEGREGATION AND RACE HATE That members of the Race in South America are watching with interest the progress of the Race in this country is indicated in the letters which constantly reach the Defender office from all sections of the continent to the south. One theme the most serious injuries generally come from the fact that the darker races in all parts of the world are no longer content with an inferior status and that they are willing to fight. It necessitates the recognition that they deserve. Writing from Bahn, the great coffee center of Brazil, I. S. Moore, a prominent public figure, says: "For the benefit of the Phyllis Wheatley-Provident hospital fund, proved easily displayed by pretty models.

April 21, 2013. Trial of the case of R. F. Gree (white) against the Atlanta Air Line Railway company for $50,000 damages was held reckoned. The suit of Green follows an attack made on him in the Hays yard, near here, by three men of the race, alleged to have been robbed while performing his duties as a law enforcement officer. Prised the men at night and was seriously wounded by them. Subsequently they were captured and the entire penitentiary. They are Oullet Sims, Ufley Mitchel and Cute Weaver." The southern people chose between constitutional abstractions and civilization. George H. Moses, Republican of New Hampshire, declared that they had another choice of reduction of the high privilege to suppress millions of votes". Senator Moses said, "and why does not southern chivalry come to the front and pay the price which the North paid?" Senator Borah declared that he has "always thought that the enfranchisement of the Negro, at the time it took place, was a mistake. It was wrong, he wrote and unjust to the Colored man. "I have said here on the floor of the senate," Senator Borah said. "I said that race which had been in slavery for 300 years and overnight put upon them the burdens and the obligations of discharging political duties in the state. I am an almost impossible proposition. I required something of the Negro that no race in history could have adde- better off to have worked out through time and education his franc- But I do not agree with the senator. But that at the present time, I have worked out these things in violation of the supreme court decisions. They have worked out a solution within the Constitution and within the decisions supreme court of the United States."

One theme runs through all this correspondence and all parts of the world are no longer content with an inferior status and that they are willing to fight. If necessary for the recognition that they deserve, Writing from Bahia, the great coffee center of Brazil, I. S. Moore, a prominent public figure, says: "We South Americans never fall to keep an eye on the conditions in the country and upon the treatment of members of the Race there. The conditions they face are bad enough, but the general ignorance of their sad import is still more regrettable. Nothing can be done to race from their lethery but the suggestions of white people. Lynching, burning at the stake, general segregation, being deprived of equal opportunity to make a living—all fall into the hands them to thought and activity. The leaders are at fault for this. Rather, the system which falls to educate the children beyond the confluence of their teachers and cheap politicians, who do not know nor have any idea of how their government is run. The time Union City, Teen. April 25. A burglar was shot and killed Saturday night about 1 o'clock by L. L. White (white), merchant, of this city, while he and his companion were attempting to burglarize the store of Mr. White. Mr. White was informed over the phone by a neighbor that his store was being robbed. He armed himself and went to the store, and on entering was met by shots from the gun of one of the burglaries. He succeeded in killing one burglar, and is certain that he had been involved in the shoulder as he ran out of the door. The dead man is thought to be John Henry Patterson of Hickman, Ky. He also has several aliases. The burglar was killed when he thought that he is wanted at Hickman, Ky, and at Tiptonville, Tenn., for robberies. Philadelphia, Pa., April 23. -Mystery surrounds the finding of the bodies of a white man and a Race Ellsworth St. early last week. The man has been identified as William Carney, 45, employed by a man and a woman in the area and who occupied the front room on the third floor of the house where the bodies were found. The identity of the dead woman has not been disclosed at a time when the couple died in a suicide pact from Illuminating gas, as Mrs. Rachel Clark, the landlord, said. Mr. Clark, on Saturday when she saw him, Mrs. Clark later told Sweeney and Loesch, detectives, that a strange man who had visited the cage Saturday told Mrs. Clark the gas was turned off.

FOR Attacked in has not only come for a reorganizing of the people in a general reorganization, but it also combines all kinds of iniquity, whether from the outside or within, even if it is within the races which make up the majority of most serious injuries generally come from the stupid propaganda within the black race. We are sure that the battle of life is a serious affair, and one point in your rights may mean many valuable lives uselessly lost, besides many very important opportunities and untold wealth. Race segregation in the U. S. A. must be put down. It is the light of iniquity and if it is suppressed it will destroy the nation. "Now, a word about our plight here: The cheapest meat here is 18000 rels per kilo, with all the bones in it, and not all by thy body. It is a every Monday we must eat bread from Saturday. Fish is from 35000 rels upward, and everything else is similar. There are not enough houses for the people, so the rents are almost insufferably high. After being within insufferably high, the matter of who bids the highest. Money is scarce and business is paralyzed. It is said that we have more than ten thousand soldiers and put them on the rebels from coming into our city and sacking it. They are already within the state.

TAKE "USUAL WAY" TO SOLVE ROBBERY TAKE "USUAL WAY" TO SOLVE ROBBERY St. Louis, April 23—Another example of the speed with which local police attempt to hang every crime around the shoulders of some member of the Race was afforded Saturday evening. Fifteen minutes after the grocery store of Benjamin Goldenhersh (white), 1700 Division St., East St. Louis, was held, and robbed of $245 at 9 o'clock Saturday night, policemen arrested Sylvester McConico, 24, of 2208 Missouri Ave. He was identified as the hold-up man by Goldenhersh and his sleek, Earl Winters (white). McConico had called a taxi cab from a house near the store. He had a revolver and $41. He is a chauffeur in the employ of the East St. Louis health department and denies the charge.

April 23. —Because his labor was needed to save white men from the work of toiling Clark, ex-convict again under sentence, had his term reduced to five years by Judge Wade in the First Circuit. The change was made so that he could be committed to the Pulaski-Perry road district instead of to the penitentiary. Clars had been convicted last week of the murders of W. M. Stewart (white). He had been given a seven year sentence. He has already put in two terms on the county farm, one on the road district and a three on the penitentiary for grand hareny.

April 23.—The elusive body of Arkansas man Hunter, who fugitive from justice, his white attorney who furnished his $500 bond and a race woman who offered for his fugitive amount. Hunter, who skipped feited his bonds, but it was contrary to public opinion here that a white man should have to suffer for the failure of his bonds. For the state to have passed its right to cash in on the bonds would have meant releasing the Race woman also, so she was orphaned and to pay a fee of $500 and costs, thereby saving the lawyer from losing the $500 bond. Saturday the attorney found Hunter and brought him into court. Hunter was allowed to plead guilty and to pay a fee of $500 and costs, thereby saving the lawyer from losing the $500 bond. The woman's bond was also saved was incidental. That had not been the case. The attorney was arrested several times last summer on charges of selling liquor. SATURDAY, APRIL 24, 1926 LAUDS PHYSICAL STAMINA OF RACE Dr. H. H. Proctor Says Death Rate Is De- creasing “Ours is the only Race that can do a full day's work in any part of the globe where it finds itself. We can bring a full load of rubber at the crack of the Belgian's whip in the Congo, or can stand with the explorer at the North pole as did Max Henson with Peary and comes back safe and sound,” stated Dr. H. H. Proctor of Brooklyn, N. Y., at the closing mass meeting of the annual Health week at Memorial Hall, under the auspices of the Civil Welfare association. Sunday afternoon, April 11. Dr. Proctor, author, lecturer and divine, a graduate of Fisk and Yale university, stated in part that Race optimism is a major stock of a fact indicated by its survival of the middle-passage and the rigors of slavery. This is further attested to by the fact that the Race not only survived emancipation, but was a last-of-a-war number of the first half century of our liberation. Our exploits in labor in the World war gave further proof of hardhood, inheriting as we did muscle of steel from slavery's hard-grasiness. Dr. Proctor, further emphasizes the fact that the race death rate was decreasing rapidly. Among the reasons for the decrease are 4,000 physicians, 1,000 doctors and 3,500 nurses coupled with growing intelligence and improved economic status. Representative reports on Health week were read by Dr. C. Aleshire Neal, county department of health; William Callman of the State school; Michael Brown of the State School; Zellery from the Michael M. Shoemaker Health and Welfare center; Dr. R. E. Clark from the Cincinnati Medical association. James H. Robbson, executive secretary of the Civic Welfare association, which organizes the Health week in activities, started that 21st health and social agencies of Hamilton county worked together this year with physicians and 200 churches in promoting the success of Health week, which was supervised by the Public Health Federation and worked by the city and county departments of health. Dr. R. G.

Dear Princess: Will you please tell me what to do? I am a young man, 24 years old, married three years and we have two children. I am very proud of my family and I love my children. I am my trouble: My wife and I live with my mother. My mother loves her children, but I just like they were her very own, but my wife is always dissatisfied. She lives with me, own, with just the mother and me. My mother is old and needs my help, my sister is old and needs me to live away from my mother and take care of her and my family. My wife is old and needs me to fix up my mother's home, making it do for all of us. My wife is 19 and I am 19. I say I am nice to her also, but she nearly drives me crazy about our own home, please tell me what to do—H It is only natural for a woman to crave home of her own and want to tell us that circumstances alter cases, married very cruel. I advise every young woman to be careful, not to share them they can, but it is not always possible they can, but it is not always possible they cannot, then they must share a share allike. Our mothers are the ones to give their lives to us, so we cannot neglect them when they need us. Your wife lives to them, so we cannot seem to understand, still you cannot afford to be too lenient with her, or does not intend to be so, but she is trying to make you break your mother's life to them, so we cannot place herself in your position and make it clearer. I think you are a wonderful mother, will succeed. Stay with mother and fix up the home; don't mistreat the child; must continue to live as you now are; don't why she should grumble, don't why your mother is a real mother-in-law to her.

PART 1—PAGE 6 PASSING OF DRAMA I had to cleanse the house by day quite an interesting article on the passing of drama among our group. The writer was very much annoyed at the fact that the interest among the dramatic productions and in a general way he tried to furnish a reason. One of the reasons offered was that there were no Race dramas or writers but a few of the actors and band of actors once known as the Lafayette Players. Also he contends that the Race should be interested in drama, regardless of the Race appeal but not because an audience subject that both interested him and puzzled him. I don't think there should be any interest because an audience present. If we note carefully we will find that the theater fads among our group are the same as the others. That is at least a comedy and revues are the outstanding forms of entertainment throughout the country. There are more high comedies, musical and farcical, than any time during the history of the great White Way. Amusement changes almost as fast as our styles. can remember when it was considered a comedy and revues could speak lines on the stage. Then the dramatic impulse swept the country. A number of Race artists can remember when it was considered a comedy and organizes what was called the Lincoln Players. This organization offered little 10 and 20 dolomdras twice a day at the Lincoln Theater, the success of this undertaking that a group of Jewish showmen organized from this unit the Lafayette Players, adding a number of other comedies famous under this management. Most of you know that the Lafayette, either the original or some of the other companies, have played all over the country to packed houses, theaters, and the schools, and we are also certain that the public appreciated them. After a sufficient rest and when Old Broadway points out for them (I mean the theatergoers), they come to the comedy, music or drama, the Raco actor will again have his opportunity to see the house packed to see "so-and-so" a big scene in a Shakespearean role or one from Barbie, the Mills, Charleston dancers, nude girls, spicy jokes now, and so are the Racist theatergoers. They all live in America, have American ideas, hence they are compelled to follow that trend. At the cell of the times. At present the Lafayette Players is history.

Song Composers Happy Washington, April 6—With hearings before the joint senate and house patent committees scheduled for April 10, the National Association of Broadcasters are calling the listener's attention to the importance of the Dill-Vestal copyright bill, which is said to offer an issue of the copyright music problem of the broadcasters of America. Paul B. Kring, executive chairman of the broadcasters' association, in before the hearings, pointed out some of the inequalities of the present situation and explained the position of the broadcaster as regards the new bill. Willing to Pay "Broadcasters are in favor of paying for the use of copyrighted music," he explained, "but see no reason why this payment should be made exclusive to the broadcasters who belong to a single organization. We realize there is much musical genius in the United States which needs encouragement and therefore we encourage every copyright owner, whether a member of the association or not." An appeal to listeners to write the message to the house patent committee will be heard in the Dill-Vestal bill is designed, according to Mr. Kling, to provide for equitable payment to the owner of the copyright on his location paying the same rate. No rate has been suggested by the broadcasters' association, their appeal being, however, based on the number of broadcasters. Thus, if a number is popular and is broadcast several times a night, the owner of the copyright will receive payments for each of the transmission. The phonograph record and player-piano roll manufacturers have used a similar method for 17 years, according to the record plan to broadcasting seems most logical in his opinion. Listeners were invited to write members of the senate pattern committee to press their views. The senators may be addressed in care of the senate office building and the congressmen in care of the house office building. J. Berni Barbour J. Berni Barbour, musician-producer of note, has been engaged by the Ministers' alliance of the A. M.

Two bounded volumes from the different organizations will be required for the presentation. The composer-producer Ers琳生 Tate, the subject of my article this week, is very well known to many officers of the Middle West will be a national character. in time to Celebrate him on the grade, with many obstacles in his path, this man won and conquered. I personally own Er琳生 Tate since he was a child. I have a very big grow. I have predicted for him his present success. I Dave Peyton A. H. Dave Peyton this moment coming down the famous State St. Stroll with fiddle tucked under him arm, hustling along to the St. St. School. At St. School, where he played violin in the family orchestra. This kid was always serious, always bung. When not on his job he would wonder this young man has climbed the ladder so successfully! And the same success may be attained by the rest of the careless bunch if they wonder this young man themselves as Ersildine Tate has. Born in the southern clime—be believe in the city of Memphis, Tenn.—Tate comes from a family of music teachers, was the first Race person to own and play a piano in the community. His mother and father were first-class musicians. His mother was a music teacher, the most instructors of music in the country. Her name is Penella Tate Penson, a graduate of the Mendelssohn Concert Hall in Memphis. Tate, a brother of Ersildine, is one of the finest cornet players in the country and is the first-chair player in the Vendome orchestra. Tate's ability is unquestionable. He has also been successful in the handling of his Famous Vendome Theater orchestra. Although many of the older than Tate and in the early days of its existence took advantage of his inexperience and youth, he has managed to do things like to take his Vendome orchestra has no peer in the country among Race orchestras when it comes to delivering the neat package in the picture houses. I have criticized some of the things done badly by our musicians from time to time, but such criticism was only to correct such evils in the orchestra. Ernskine Tate is one of the conductors who thanked me for such advice and put it into force in his success. The success of the Vendome theater is due to Tate's orchestra, which has been the pride of Chicago's place of music. The orchestra's cinema, they characterize it; nothing is missed by the well-trained Tate in the picture. The mature industry today requires proper musical settings to bring out its theme, even though it be only a piano or organ. When such atmosphere does not accompany the play, you can look for bad business, sooner or later, in such theaters. These things have made the Vendome orchestra among this industry in institution and will always remain so, because they are built on solid soil. Versatility is one of their assets. They handle the large orchestra, the operatic suites, standard overtures, comic operas and great symphonies down to modern jazz. The Vendome orchestra is distinct musical artist, many of the players having gotten their show training under this writer when he was active in the theater. Conductor Tate has grouped this fine timber around him and has molded into shape an orchestra that he would like to perform, that this writer likes Tate so well, and that there is a close personal friendship between us; it is the young man's achievements that I admire.

Of our interserves, Shakespeare said: "This above all, to thine ownself be true, and it must follow as the night the day, thou cannot not then be unaware of your own strengths, your policy to allow others to see our weaknesses, to have knowledge of our shortcomings and limitations, but if we must to increase our efficiency we must acknowledge to ourselves that we are not all that we would have others believe us to be, and start elimination of our defects. We must not allow the siren song of our desires to lull to sleep the warning voice of our conscience, the seer voice of our thoughts and the blossom in all our actions. We will then be honest in all our dealings. Honest in our work. Honest in our actions, and above all we will be honest in our actions." Once there was a great king who "bugged" the spotlight and made superiors out of everyone else in his kingdom because so infatuated with himself that he showed to prove that he was a superstar. That there had never been a star quite so great and that all others were so much less important only be initiators. When the show was nearing its climax some one threw a slide upon the wall. It made some noise because he brought some one was trying to recall the show and because he could not read the words of the slide. Some one told the king that there was an "extra" stone that he had found and the strange writing. The king sent for him and Daniel read: "You have been weighed in the balance and you have not got so sure that he trusted Daniel as an ing dessert to the lions, but it was no better for him. He had been exposed and his name disappeared from his house. He was untrite to himself." The members of the company are still happy thinking about the courtesy and hospitality extended to them by the Barraco brothers, Paul and Victor, at Houston, Texas. Before leaving they presented each member of the company with a large box of candy. A large and enthusiastic crowd greeted us at the City auditorium. Galveston, Texas. Credit for the success of the engagement must be given to the untiring work of Chintz, who assisted by Mr. Criner. Mr. Moore booked the week of one nighters into New Orleans. He is a native of Galveston and the large crowd was a testimony to his popularity in his home town, as well as to the drawing power of the Snurter Set company. We were entertained at the cozy little home of Mr. and Mrs. Lucas. Mr. Lucas is a leading tailor, and his wife a popular school teacher in Galveston. Others present were Cuney Connor, Ruby Williams, Mabel Hitley, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas and Mrs. and Mrs. Emerson. Mrs. Ada Arnlet entertained with a whist party at Port Arthur. We stopped at the home of Mrs. Welsh.

Whitney What man has accomplished today is the result of the higher mental development of man. The increased ability of man is the result of the increased efficiency of man as a thinking individual. Then it must obtain that the proper way to go about adding to the value of man's output is to first teach him how to think. He must have a higher order of thinking individuals. The possibilities of man reaches to infinity, God is infinite and he is God. By his increased intelligence man has gained in knowledge of the world and of the universe and of death. His power over all other things is limited only by his intelligence. In this world of wonders there is nothing quite so wonderful as man himself.

LOVE IS KING By SALEM TUTT WHITNEY Love is a mighty king, and knows it. With stately mien he rules, and shows it; And not a jay shalt he love. Within their hearts, but by his grace. Love is a mighty king. Love is a royal king, nor shames it; A joyous person, apprehending it; Exulting subjects, everywhere. His gold and purple colors bear. Love is a royal king. Love is a during king, who doubts it? Resistance meets and bodily rout it. He gives conventions scornful heed. Defies traditions, race and creed. Love is a during king. Love is a whimsy king; I trow it. More lickle than the wind, I vow it; For ne'er can maid or swain be sure Love's errant fancy will endure. Love is a whimsy king. Love is a kindly king, and proves it; He pricks a heart, then straightway soothes it; And not a sorrow or a curse. But Love sinks to bikes to bear. Love is a kindly king. Love is a fearless king, I boast it! His courage none may doubt, I toast it! Nor foe, nor hindrance can dismay, Love is a fearless king to slay, Love is a fearless king.

First to come was a paper from way down yonder in Indiana, and then another man, on her Hamilton. It was a pleasure to meet to see the likeness of my old friend, together with D. A. Dorsey, S. S. Hunt, and other men note, on the front page of the newspaper, Havana's latest newspapers. Some class to this picture, but this is where all could do was look at the old paper. All of us knew the paper I did not know my A. B. Cs. Thanks, Coy, old top. If you expect to come back to the States this week, let me have your address in Miami. Next big happening of the week: I dropped by the Star and Garter center to take a peep at Lucky Banks, who is in charge of the old- timers-Eddie Daye, Billy Hitzig, Joe Byrd, William Johnson, At Watts and others—and we did have some times together this past week. Samba show, for it is a good show and I can see now why it is where it is today. Billy Hitzig and Joe Byrd take care of the comedy and the music. Whitman, who is in a class by himself, is "too bad Jim," and those three Dixie Sombrids, Misses Hilbo Perleng, Borisolana Banks and Rachel Gas and ran away with things. Miss Randolph does a little comedy that adds much spice to the act. Miss Banks, who is in charge, deserves credit, for they never miss a house. There were others that I would like to mention, but do not remember their names. The old master, Rascal Flatts, had a huge musical end and you know it is enough said. The good book says, "It comes to the he who waits," but it too long for my bunch. Well, Rascal Flatts has been working so hard with his little act, just got the good news of 20 weeks to the Coast and back, which starts the first week in May. What did you do with it? I was on the over phone. This was one of those overnight chances of luck. This will be my last week. I think, around the City kids. Write me care of the kids. I will be to hear from you. Don't know if I should do or back up. Motto: Elfie Dale is still talking about the Wild Cats. Herman and Eva Brown to their stuff at the 51 theater, Atlanta Ga., week of April 19.

Owners and managers of many Race-themed stores have been running pictures only, have decided to add a life, management above to their already picture business. Tim Owlsley Race acts know that a better condition for them in the way of consecutive booking. Prices on such engagements will not be housed, because labor costs in office box office receipts. When work is scarce and prices for what work can be had does not take care of things that are actually needed in the commercial places suffered in their investments. If the dollar sign is truly the American god, you might know that when you cut his prices such thick bills and quarters, "It's too bad, Jim." A Middle West circuit is now on the market and will, no doubt, take in all the independent Race theaters, but the other circuits should be years were unable to get a look-in as far as booking amusements was concerned. The other circuits should be when times were good the couple of the artist did not improve and during all this time the owners and managers of them enriched and seen them "slave artist," who helped to build up their business. Race audiences are the centre support of most Race theaters and seen them the audiences, and for the chance to play before the audiences a small sum of 5 per cent is taken out of his bookings, which is necessary, and the agents deserve it. It is a tough job, but why not put a Race clerk in one, but why not at least two? Out of all the Race men and women in this land, surely there is one man or woman that can tickle a race horse. In a combination of theaters you will find many Race men owners and managers, and it takes all of these theaters to make the combination. Race owners as well as Race owners as managers would ask a clerk of his own Color be employed where the future will need the race horses. Race owners as managers do what is now being done, and do what he how to do that which the Race owners and managers now depend on. Two circuits won't hurt any and prove a godsend. Time will tell. A new house has started vaudeville in Detroit, with E. B. Dudley in the K. of K. building and S. in the new K. of K. building and will open in Columbus, Ohio. The Indiana in Indianapolis has started vaudeville. Within six months there will be new realaters all over the country. When the finger of progress touches the hand of time, things of progress touch the things that once rested in the womb of time, born now in the age of progression, to live and function in the world of time. And he who tries to obstruct its swamp aside and lost, but he who is quick to observe changes in progression is on to success and may live to tell the future about yesterday and now. CURLEY DRYSDALE BADIOS I herewith publish a letter sent in by Curley Drysdale, manager of the Dreamland theater, Tulsa, Okla. Curley will interview the performers just what is in store for them when they come down his way. "Tulsa, Okla. "Friend Dave: I don't want to take up too much of your time, but Ive got to broadcast this good news, for I know that it will be welcomely received by the performers' profession. The performers have played here and went through a whole lot of discontentment and trouble have at last got a man that they really want. Ive just taken the house from its former owner, Mrs. Z. A. Rhone, and awarded it to Mr. Cotter (white), a well known theatrical man, who has also been connected with various film exchanges. "Mr. Cotter is not only spending thousands in remodeling the house before opening for the comforts of his business, but something that very few managers do on the T. O. B. A. He is making a place of comfort for the performers, a place where they can dress and play with every convenience. A place where the girls can relax and rest between shows. He also states that everything a performer's contract with the he gets and he don't mean maybe. "Mr. Cotter has operated houses in St. Louis and Mobly, Mo., and spent the greater proportion of his time in houses, and I can safely say, not from hearsay, but from what I see for myself, that he is putting his motives in effect. Now personally that performers have been getting some rough deals to them, but as the saying goes, those days have gone forever, for this man sees that performers have been getting some good jobs as his patron. There will be no more cutting of salary or canceling, for if you're good you come in; if you're not, you don't; so I advise you get in touch with us.

The Alabama minstrel opened her 24th season in W. North Park, the theater in W. North St., to a turn away business. This year's production outrivals any herstory and the show bids fair to to outdo its past reputation. This season's roster includes quite a few reputable performers and an experienced veteran in among them being Norton, comedian and producer. However, this season he will enact the role of interlocutor-conversation veteran, and prove to be capable of or equal to the job. The Windy city is well represented by Wiles and Sims David and Lily May. The former being billed as the preaching comedian and the latter as the dancing flapper. They have been known to work with the season is young. J. C. ("Sringlehans") Williams, the leam and lanky comedian, is with it wearing a suit and will stick it out without doing his usual gesture. Murdock and Murdock, James and Betty, the former dancer and the latter, the new dancer and a rent clapper" whoopper, make their initial bow on the show this season and have shown their prowess at entertaining. "Peek," the one-legged actor, Charleston dancer and comedian, was a decided hit at each performance. Miss Ellen Kearney, especially know of and one among the country's clever dancers, was a guest at the show. Little Rock and Hot Springs, Miss Katie Irving, an exceptionally good actor, singer and dancer, is one of our worthy additions to the show, which runs halls from the Windy city also, is pleasing the patrons at each performance with his beautiful solos and his first season with the rags. Ray Johnson, comedian and dancer, hails from St. Louis and though he has worked in comedy part as yet, he has shown his capability. Ozias Mathews, late of the Georgia miniatures and one of the best comedians in the business, is with us again this season and going big. Leon "Lassies" Brown, the featured comedian and dancer, has been able to every expectation as a feature attraction. Hats off to this youngster and it's to be seen that real success awaits him just a little further. Edward Howard, musical director, again welds the baton for the show, has supervised him himself with a collection of good music, the band is declared to be one of the heat with the road shows. The roster includes such well-known musicians as John Woods, trombones; William Lee, Wade Benjamin, chinets; Doc Curry and I. C. Williams, meloons; John L. Larsen, latticed Larry Sherwin, tuba; Theodore Fogg, saxophone; Amos M. White, Nathan Williams, cornetts; Edward Howard, bass; Leon Brown and Selma Williams. A real good 14-piece band, as has been acclaimed at each of the performances, with special effects to the credit of Fondmaster Howard, the band is one big feature, playing standard numbers, solos and lots of novelettes with special effects.

PETER For cenuries conceived in enu have been strivic in equate statements of the Christian faith. They have sometimes been some time in harmony, sometimes in strife—to hammer out one of the fundamental would express the fundamentals of would express the *Vivienne* fundamentals, of a person revealed in the scripture and the spiritual experience of men. A great deal of thought is again being centered on creeds and people are going back to the founders of Christianity, really solid or decadent. Perhaps such an examination will not prove altogether fruitless, since in some quarters there are deliberate and purposeful attempts to geometrical history-Christianity. With some extremists it is not a matter of interpretation of facts, but the facts themselves that they attack. To successfully attack more negatives and falsities and that is not by indulging in bitter personalities and calling every radical a racist, but by ignoring the fact that they attack. When a man gets a firm grasp of positive truth, the fictitious will soon disappear. In considering the founders of Christianity, a man must begin with his belief in God for after all a man's conception of God is fundamental and regulates all his actions in life. Religion in his hands upon your conception of God. The religious life of a nation can be no higher than that nation's vision of God. What must be the thought of God? What people should do when people one of their orators would dare to say: "Comrades, it is the sacred duty of the workers to destroy all tyrans, and the last and the greatest of them is God in heaven." That feeling, as you know, was Russia's undoing. How essential, therefore, that people be taught true conceptions of God. How essential, therefore, that people be taught God as we look upon the created world around about us. We believe the world has a beginning. The Greeks, Egyptians, Hindus and others have taught the ancient biological ideas of the first cause of all creation, ranging from water as the first principle to the golden broken egg from which spring Brahma, but from which the beginning God. We know the world reveals a mind and purpose, a design and order back of all things. We are convinced the universe was not jumbled together by chance. When one reads a poem he knows that by mere chance such rhythmic words would never stumble into place to express the finest thought that can enter the mind of man, the divine the unmerged the poem, ever come into being that way. It reveals a supreme intelligence, a rational order, a divine PART 1-PAGE 7 JIMMY'S RED HOTS WANTED Crowds Watch Johnson Work Out PART 1-PAGE 8 WARD'S HITS HELP FORCE WIN,7 TO 6 Homer in 8th, Triple in 9th Timely --- By "SECK" SIMMS Wilberforce, Ohio, April 16.—At the home opening game what seemed to be a stinging defeat to the big green turned into a victory after trailing behind the Ohio conference team four points. Wu Fang Ward, being the hero of the day with a homer and a triple, made it possible for the Wilberforce victory by a score of 7 to 6. In the game Ward got a double, a triple and a homer. Duke, a southern boy, from North Carolina, stopped on the mound for Wilberforce and was relieved of Harris in the seventh inning effort. Defiance had run six scores across the pan. The weather was a little chilly, which was one of the chief causes of Duke not performing his duty as could have been done and then with a little rugged fielding of the fielders, these helped Defiance to run their scores up. With none out and two on bases in the seventh inning, Coweth Graves ranked Duke and sent Harris in to save the day, and save the day Harris did. The first two men that faced Harris were struck out and the third popped in the air to Wu Fang Ward. In the last half of the eighth inning the score stood 6 to 3 in favor of Defiance. Ward came up with a homer after having two strikes and three balls on him. Stout followed with a single and scored afterward on errors. This brought the score up to 6 to 5. Battling against odds in the ninth inning with two out, King Callen captain of Wilberforce, got a nice little single and stole second. Ward was next up to the bat, and with two out, Callen on second base and two strikes on him and no balls, he clouted the horsehide to deep right field for three bases and on an overthrow to third by the Defiance second baseman he went loping home for the winning score.

Although the Stars topped the runs, the Clerks leapt the ball of the Clerks' pitcher, who used a sidearm delivery with a cross-fire, which had the Stars heavy batters pulling away from the plate most of the time. Eight hits was the sum total of slugging registered by the Mound city, clan, while seven boots out hold in the Clerks' defense.

Georgia church deacon and one of the most charming characters in the American prize ring, won the triumphant decision of judges in referee over Allen- town Joe Gans in a fast 16-round battle of the armory he before more than 2,500 fans. PETER BROWN The south paw gave his best to the east region fans, who were playing for a moment. Most of the fans had expected the titleholder to 'take his gigs' easy, but FI made it worse. Flowers things easy, but Flowers is one champion who believes in giving the man an opportunity to aggressiveness and speed, both of foot and hand, not only won the decision for him, but won the admiration and lasting esteem of the sport follower. In defeat, Joe Gans appeared to better advantage than on many occasions when he was returned the victor and there was no lowering of his standards by his defeat at the hands of the opponent, and more friends by his persistence and refusal to "play it safe" than at any time he came here from Lehigh county three years ago. He fought with the best team and did he resort to his famous clutch. Flowers' victory was not by a wide margin for Gans was clearly entitled to the verdict in three frames, the high point of the championship to even terms in three others, the first, eighth and tenth. Flowers' margin of victory was wide in the second, fourth, fifth and ninth. The high point of the battle came from the high point of the sixteen rounds when Gans changed his style of attack against the southpaw. In the early rounds, the Allentown boy had resorted to his usual style of playing with a ball. This seemed to please the champion who buzzed around him like a mosquito, sticking in short rib jabs, shrap and punches and working his way through the solid squirts to the stomach with his left which lacked in hitting power the pile-driving qualities that Gans has. After the fifth round, Gans seemed to have solved the peculiar style of Flowers. He drew in his long left, jabs and seemed to have trouble getting in close to the champion, thereby putting an end to those tantalizing dancing maneuvers which Gans and seemed to have taken advantage of the repeated incesses of Flowers, who swung wild. Gans sticking his right over to the champion's face and opening a cut to eye at the end of the sixth round. The seventh was Gans' his round—and four times he crossed his right to the champion's face for solid blows until Flowers wisely backed away and started to throw right flips to the face from a distance which failed to stop Gans who displayed more aggressiveness in this frame than in the previous period since he came to Willes-Barre. Both seemed a trifle tired in the eighth, which was even with little effective punching but plenty of foot work. We seemed to realize that the margin of victory would be slim and he cut loose in the ninth with a puzzling attack that reminded many of Morrie Schlaiffer. The deacon throw himself at Gans from all points and blows to the face with the right and a few to the body with the left. None of his punches was damaging but he piled up enough points to win the olympic gold was able to get to the end only as a solid touch to the body at the end of the round. The tenth round found both boys bleeding and their faces were spotted with red, but the champion failed to show up and Gans seemed to be in a coma. The honors were evenly divided. Gans weighed one and a half pounds over the middleweight limit, while Flowers seceded to have a 14-pound advantage in the championships were Gans, 161. Flowers, 163. Tommy Riley of Philadelphia was the referee. Three knockouts marked the preliminary program of the Armory A. C., which was satisfying to all the CLAFLIN 4: PAINE 0 Augusta, Ga., April 16—Glover, who has been absent for a month on account of injuries, was back on the mound for Calfin and pitched a shutout college nine, allowing only four hits and winning, 4 to 0.

BOB LAWSON IS THE COMING LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP Bx FAIRDEAL New York, April 13—Fighting Bob Lawson, world's light heavyweight boxer, known to Gotham fight fans as "The Alabama Bear," is fast following in the footsteps of his stablemate, the former Borenbach or his successor, Jack Delaney, a hard tussle for that coveted world title soon. He received the Floweries relieved Harry Greb of the world's middleweight title. Bob gave the nationally known Young Bob Fitzsimons, son of old Ruby Robbins, 10 rounds to Young Bob ever experienced. Lawson had Fitzsimons on the floor for a count, a feat no one else had ever done. His slashing attack was also more apparent on the features of Fitz than anything Jack Delaney delivered in a feature 10-round match at Madison Square Garden, two new weeks ago. Willishead, burl. YORK NINE HUMB IN 10 INNINGS YORK NINE HUMBLES HILLDALE IN 10 INNINGS BY 5-T0-4 SCORE York, Pa., April 17.—The Hildale club went down to defeat in a hard-fought 10-linning game that was decided when Pitcher Lefty George of the team outplayed with a single to right field, sending Dougherty over with the winning marker. The game was a free-hitting contest with the local team outplayed. The white team showed to an advantage over the Hildale team due to the fact that the York team has been in training for the past three weeks and have engaged in several battles with the team was playing their first game. Charlie Henry and Phil Cockrell divided the hurring duty for the Hildale team, Henry, who has later been added to the staff, started the game on the right field and the rubber was found for three runs. Cockrell took up the burden and Bolden's clan tied up matters in the seventh inning when hits by Stevens, Briggs and Warfield, along with Thomas' walk, netted three runs. The York club again went into the lead when Leavitt hit a home run over the right field fence in the home club's half of the seventh.

April 15.—Sam Huston humbled the Wiley Wildehats here on the field, and Taylor hurried for Sam Huston and although he was hit hard by the Wildcats, he was able to come through splendidly when Wildeat left the field, and it hits being scattered over the route. Taylor was opposed by Lee Jackson, the Cat curve ball artist, who had the local sluggers baffled, allowed, and then hit the ball. His nervousness with men on the paths and the blow-up of his supporting cast allowed Sam Huston to walk off with today's game. Taylor, in a hit batsman, a single by Alexander and errors by Jackson, Shackelford and Grom donated Sam Huston four counters in the opening frame. Alexander's single gave another in the fourth. Alexander's homer aided one in the seventh and a base on balls and Shackelford's error was responsible for Johnson's single, a wild throw by Taylor and sacrifices by Shackelford and Taylor gave Wiley their first run.

Spears made a total of 40 baskets and 15 free throws in the 18 games played. Simpson, another former Phillips student, played in 16 baskets and made eight free throws. Lester Johnson, still another graduate from Wendell Phillips, played in 15 games, made 18 baskets and five free throws. Spears made with Simpson on baskets, getting 24 in 16 games played, but he was only successful from the free throw line twice. He was beaten twice by Mergan college, but won all other games except the one against Wilberforce where they were one classed, 34 to 15. Compiling the record hung up by the Renaissance basketball team this season shows they have played 32 games lost 15 and won 77. This team, the Renaissance took part this season. Road trips have been very fruitful for the team financially. "Bob" Douglas went so far as to say the outlook is bright for the Renaissance to appear at least twenty times next season. Like New York, the Philadelphiaists have been turning out in large numbers to see the Renaissance in action. It is now up to the Forty club of Chicago to dispute the claim of national prominence enjoyed by the Renaissance. The game is practically out of the question because the Chicago club is an amateur organization. It would hardly be fair for the public to stage a contest which would be too one- BROWN'S STARS Younzstown, Ohio, April 21.--The Brown's Stars will open their season on April 25 in the Ohio and Pennsylvania fields. Catcher Young and young defenseman Greys have signed to play with the Stars this season. Melix will start Sunday's fray with Brannigan and Battles held in reserve. T. M.

April 22—With the Jack Johnson-Pat Lester fight little more than a competitive training at his quarters at Camp Litle, where the 25th U. S. infantry is located. He is always in good condition and but little, with a poundage, which will be shed long before the day of the fight. The Johnson is 48, he looks 10 years younger. He will enter the big arena on May 2 weighing around 200 pounds. Kelly, managed by Spider Kelly, is also in spiced condition. Kelly is known as one of the best conditioners in the country. He decompresses and helps Lester and his brother after Lester drops Johnson in the Somera ball ring. Johnson says Lester has an injury, and there is any putting away to be done he will attend to that himself and wont be the one to be put away. He has been made to take care of a big crowd. Dan Cole, the promoter is receiving Newark, N. J., April 23.—The 1925 ratings of the American Tennis association were released this week from the office of J. Mercer Burrell, secretary of the association. For Thompson, the young wizard of tennis, he placed at No. 1, with Eiger G. Brown, the 1922 champion, holding down second place. Eyre G. Saitch, the new York champion holds the same position as the third place. Talley Holmes, who was the national champion and No. 1 in 1923 and 1924, is placed at No. 4. He was named the national and the major tournaments held under the auspices of the A. T. A. during the season of 1925, the rating of the first four olympic games, and was defeated by Saitch in the semifinals of the nationals. On the performances he merits fourth position. The rating of Dr. B. M. Rhett, the hard-hitting Baltimore crack, at No. 5 will undoubtedly occasion a good deal of comment. By winning the Wilmington open tournament, reaching the final round in the Baltimore open and winning the Baltimore closed, the doctor was able to amass a number of points on paper which entitled him to consideration. In 1924, Dr. Rhett was rated No. 13, and he has now advanced over the heads of such players of Woolridge, rated No. 4 in 1924; Richard Hudlin, J. W. Anderson, E. R. Simmons, Dr. J. McGriff, George Smith, Dr. O. B. Williams and E. Gomes. Woolridge, former junior champion and one of the sensations of the 1924 season, failed to show progress and has been dropped from No. 4 to No. 8. His sole performance of note was reaching the finals in the New York tournament, after Saite had been eliminated. He was easily defeated by Brown in the New York finals and lost to "Ted" Thompson in the nationals. Slimmons has advanced from No. 7 to No. 5 in this year's ratings. An- twer to No. 5 has dropped down from No. 5 to No. 124 in 1924, appears this year as No. 14. Dr. McGriff has moved back to No. 124, appears by George Smith has also made a big drow- nage to No. 18. Dr. O. E. Williams has moved down from No. 10 to appear in a paraphrase being penalized for his apparent nationalism, which ruling of the A. T. A. is an excellent thing to stimulate competition in the major tournament of Gomes, thought to be a comer in 1924, has fallen from No. 11 to No. 15, and he is lucky to be rated at all. "Johnny," Wilkinson, the "grand old man" from the nation's capital, by some treak of good fortune, has been accidentally "Wilkie" is rated above Richard Haddin and also Kenneth Worde, who defended him in the second of the nationals at Bordeaux. Solomon Worde, the young New Jersey champion, who sprung into prominence by sewing many mugs in the national rankings at No. 2, mentored and who almost eliminated Simmons, makes his first appearance in the national rankings at No. 2, in the national rankings at No. 2, whose only fault is lack of confidence. Russell Smith of Chicago, junior college of 1924, attended in senior circles at No. 10, Smith played well in the West early in the season and gave Brown a fierce battle. York open tournament, but suffered a defeat at the hands of the elongated "freak" from Virginia, Dr. L. C Downing, in the national ranks. The national ranks is Kenneth Worde of New Jersey, a brother of Solomon Worde, the present state champion. Kenneth is ranked as No. 10, New school, is ranked as No. 10, New Jersey fans, who are familiar with the play of Kenneth may ex-ample some quirks at his belting rated as No. 10, which he featured in the nationalists. The winner was defeated by Hudell in the nationalists, but secured adequate re- Dr. E. D. Down is, West Macon, Dr. E. D. Down is another new- comer at No. 17. That wonderful veteran of veterans, Rev. Dr. W. W. Walker of Baltimore, breaks into the ratings after four years' absence and is ranked at No. 18. Dr. Ross Strange, the Philadelphia champion, who also made a wonderful impression situating during the Norden town tour ment, ends the list at No. 20. Mrs. S. O. Seames, the "Grand old lady" of tennis, is rated No. 3. The majority of tennis fans will greatly appreciate the honor done "Mother" Seames, but unfortunately the records will hardly sustain the committee in their action. Mrs. Seames did not play in the singles at the nationals and made no sensations showing in any other tournament sufficient to oust such players as Mrs. Ema Leonard of New York and Miss Marcellus of New Jersey from consideration. Miss. Eunice Brown of North Carolina is given No. 10, apparently on her winning of the Southeastern closed tournament, as she was eliminated in the first round of the nationals. Miss Lillian Hines, also of North Carolina, has been dropped from No. 5 to No. 2. She Elise Cnick of New York City is also a No. 2. Ms. Emmanuel Burnett of New York City, Mrs. Barbara Burnett of New Jersey and Miss L. Hines of North Carolina, both of which 10 in the 137 ratings were not rated this year. The two latter SATURDAY, APRIL 24, 1926 Out ON AWAITS NG BOUT WITH AT SONORA RING all the co-operation he wants from the officials of both the city of No- gales and Sonora and the aid of the American Legion. The fans are on edge for the match. The training camp is crowded, the Ed Bishop, manager of Johnson, later Ed Bishop, manager of Johnson, dictes all of 25,000 or more fans at the ringside.

Promoter Dan Cole searched sand and after sifting the available material, picked the 150-pound entrant as the best to meet the Arizona battler. Lunch is one of the most popular meals in the state, and a large portion of the crowd which will be at Nogales will be as interested in his showing that Pletter will be in the appearance of Kelly artillery. did not compete in the nationals. Some surprise may be expressed at the absence of the name of Miss Alberta, the sweetheart whose winning of the New Jersey closed tournament and reaching the round before the semifinals in the national championship. She has to as much consideration as some of those who were rated, particularly Miss Brown, Miss Hines and Mrs. Sullivan. In the women's singles, Miss Lulu Ballard, the Philadelphia southpaw, has ousted the perennial champion, Miss Channels. From No. 1, Miss Winsley, Miss Channels is rated at No. 2, whose position was held by Miss Ballard in last year's ratings. As Washington, another fair start from the Quarterfinals, she into the National ratings at No. 3, but for her misfortune in meeting Miss Alberta, in the person of Miss Washington would have been the logical candidate for second place, because of her defeat by Miss Chan- Mrs. Dorothy Radcliffe Ewell of Chicago is rated at No. 4, which is position she held in 1924. Miss Nellie Wittman of Philadelphia, with the unorthodox style, has dropped from No. 3 in 1924 to No. 5 in the 1925 ratings. Mrs. Radcliffe of Philadelphia, a sister of the present national champion, is rated at No. 6. This is her first appearance in the National ratings. Miss Blanche Winn of Philadelphia, is largely because of her play in the nationalists, in which she reached the semifinals. Miss Laura V. Junior of North Carolina has advanced from No. 5 to No. 8. Miss Mittehe has decided to abrogate the rule of custom which frowned upon members of the rating committee of the juniors' advance is well meted. Lenoir Cook of Washington, D.C. heads the juniors and there is hardly one of the necessary necessary on the other junior ratings. The company, due to the larger entry list in the nationals. In the men's doubles, Messrs. Homem. and the winner of the national double winnerships, are rated at No. 1, with Messrs. satch and Smith of New York. The Merger of thebinomia of Mergeff and Mergeff of Virgines has the national title, are rated at No. 3. Worde and Worde, the New Jersey champions and semifinalists in the national double winnerships. The旗 and Walk of Raltimore, Mid, are bracketed with Grinnell and Strange of Philadelphia at No. 5. In 1923, an occuping title was positioned downing and Merckf the move up from No. 4 to No. 3. Rheta and Walker have dropped from No. 3 to No. 4. The team and Forsy and Grinnell and Strange, both were first time in the National's ratings. In the mixed doubles, Mrs. Sewanee of Chicago and Dr. L. C. Downing of Virginia and the National at the Bordentown, are placed at No. 1, Mrs. and Mr. E. K. Jones of New York, the runners-up in the nationals and the title. Miss. Nicholson's team at No. 1 is the former holders of the title and rated No. 1 in 1924, have dropped to No. 3. The teams of Miss. Chomells and Hulling are the same. The team of Miss. 1924, and Mr. Sewanee and Mr. S. Chomells and Mr. S. S. and Mr. E. K. Jones are placed at No. 4 in 1924, did not play in the last two months, and therefore have been dropped from the team. The team was only three teams, thus shutting out one of the semifinalists in the national double winnerships. The Merger of thebinomia of Mergeff and Mergeff of Virginia and thebinomia of Mergeff of Virgines, reached the semifinals and had a good claim to fourth position especially since in 1924 both semifinalists. In the women's doubles, first place goes to Miss Laila Lauhard and Miss Joshua Washington in the women's doubles, winners in the national title. Miss Channels of Chicago and Miss Lillian Hines of North Carolina were rated at No. 2. Mrs. Dorothy Radillefie Ewell of Chicago are rated at No. 3. In 1924 this team was rated at No. 2. Mrs. Leonard Radillefie Ewell of Philadelphia are rated at No. 4. Mrs. Leonard and Miss Channels were rated at No. 1 in 1924 and Miss Washington were rated at No. 3. The ratings committee consists of Mrs. Leonard Radillefie Ewell of Philadelphia, chairman; R. C. Cook of Baltimore, Dr. D. L. House of New York city, Edmund Burke of Wisconsin, N. C., and M. E.

CHARLIE WILLIAM BLUINGS THE C AS WEATHER CHARLIE WILLIAMS' SINGLE BLUINGS THE CHICAGO BLUES AS WEATHER CHILLS THE FANS Charlie Williams' timely single in the last half of the fourth inning, with the bases full, sent over two runs at the American Giants park Sunday, when Foster's clan decisively trounced the Chicago Blues, 3 to 0. The third run came in on the same rap when the catcher missed the throw to the plate, and Charles pulled up on third, grinning with a million-dollar smile. A million-gold-frozen fans got wounded in the first half of the fourth, when the visitors filled the bases but couldn't count. Curry, who Foster got from the Hildale club of Darby, Pa., started the game with nines and then retired in favor of Poindexter. Two singles to left put Piny in a hole, then Swett went to force Maher at second on a short stretch. Swett hit the end of Charlie's fingers and he dropped the ball. But although the bases were filled, Piny fanned the next two batters and forced Fleming to hit to Marlarcher, and Sublosky to hit to Marlarcher, a forced play, Marlarcher to Swett. Marlarcher got the first hit of the season, breaking the ice in the very IN AND AROU By SQUA IN AND AROUND NEW YORK By SQUARE DEAL Frisco McGale, although he went down with his colors flying, assimilated some awful punishment at the Bakers, who took his work seriously. Jack Oakes came all the way from Buffalo and made a most heroic stand against Baker, but it was at the price of some crushing rights and a life of hard work left behind. Baker down for a count of nine in the ninth round, if we remember correctly, but when Sammy got up we wondered if it would not have been such liberties with the white boy. No question of who wins when Baker fights at the Commonwealth. The large number of fans turning to the fitness contest between Baker and Dudley appealed to the Commonwealth because of the quick K. O. which Dudley registered over Baker in Newark, N. J., many weeks back. But after witnessing the fight, he just why Baker was knocked out. He held Dudley cheap and Harry slipped over a right that did the trick. As Baker on his guard to the fight, he held Dudley never would have had the honor of knocking him out. The curtain in basketball comes down officially in this part of the country next Sunday night when a consolation game between the marathoners and the Renaissance casino. The players are made up of members of the Renaissance team and others well known in Greater New York. The proceeds usually go to the boys of the team, who receive a recognition their services during a season. In other words, the game is by the nature of a bonus garnered by the popular players and supplied by their many followers with the pleasure suprised by their fine work on the court during a hectic and strenuous season. The lid is really off. In spite of unseasonly weather for this time of the year, thousands of fans turned up to watch the game at the Greater New York on Sunday to witness the baseball games in which Race teams supplied the central part of the attraction. It is the consensus that great outdoors will see its faithful thousands scattered on stands and fields to see the Bacharach, Lincoln, Royals, Hillsdales, Newark and other teams that hit this part of the country during the regular playing season in action. Fans regret more than we are in a position to have inscribe that trick Posey and his Hibernation team of Greater New York and northern New Jersey. Posey's reputation on the masseball court, added to the thrill of the game, has to the fore for the past three on four seasons, lends enchantment to the desire of the local fans to see Posey playing here in spite of the support of the Laconia at the Catholic Protection oval every Sunday, the majority of fans supporting our teams at the other interest is not as warm as it could be. Some ten or more years ago, when some ten or more years ago, when the league park, baseball gave promise SORE MUSCLES STIFF JOINTS RHEUMATISM! This warm weather makes you want to get out and do a heap of things you can't do in bad weather, you need up muscles and joints which lie under long time they are bound to become sore and stiff if they are saturated with the rheumatic poison which they have been accumulating, and more serious effects of rheumatism, such as stabbing pains, swollen arms, legs and joints, but it is all caused by acid poisons which the blood carries to the nerve centers and the flesh and muscles, and people who have eyes and Bladder don't clear them out of the blood first as they should. So you have to help them do it. Dealers and druggists all over the country, in the big cities and villages where people who swear by the prescription known as C-2223, because it helps them get rid of their rheumatic pains and suffering without having to wait forever. They have two sizes, which do not do as is to ask for prescription care.

With Prescription C-2223 in your hands, you can get a balanced you, and you become as active and strong as if you were --- first round. Hines, in the sixth, got the first extra-base hit. Black started the game for the visitors and did well. The Giants filled the bases in the fourth after one was out, when Thompson was walked, when Browns were safe on Subsky's miscue. Then came Charlie Williams' clean single to right. The game was called at the end of the third in the seventh and the fans, then chilled to the bone, were glad to go home. BLUES ARB.ILC.

Here in the East we can boast of no Rube Foster, but the McMahons of the University of Chicago Olympic field, at that time was centrally located. Perhaps the fact that most of these games seem far removed from the average fan has a great deal to do with us blokes who are not as well known as comes to the big doings of Race baseball, and it will take something out of the ordinary to bring back the waning interest which surrounded the game then the Culhans with the game series with the Lincolns at one of the leading parks in the country. And while we like to admit to ourselves that the game is the real national pastime, one cannot fail to recognize our own success if ever, get the support of our people here. Some years ago Alpha, St. Christopher and a few of the other clubs sought to hold the interest of the people in the clubs by fostering a sense of national pride. Amateur cricket made greater headway than amateur baseball, the reason, no doubt, being that the brother from the Caribbean, being far away from home, was playing as the Britsher for the old British game, found an opportunity to enjoy a certain amount of that spirit of comaraderie which, for him, did obtain until he helped to blaze the trail that led to big-time basketball. In the meantime, tennis also beckons, but even this game bids fair to have a hard time of it with the court. The players on lots where, up to two seasons ago, this outdoor court game held some sway. The social features had a great deal to do with bringing out the best people.

It is only a matter of time when available lots that can be purchased at fair prices be filled up by the builders and well-fitted tennis basketball would be, so for theenaissance.

Opportune hitting by the home club, especially the timely clots of the Basement home team, the team, The victory. The game, which was played under unfavorable weather conditions, plainly showed that the Hilldale hurler has not had time enough to get into condition.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER Open AGO D uis Op Jack Johnson Than Dem Jack Johnson Better Man Than Dempsey-Sullivan Jack Johnson Better Man Than Dempsey-Sullivan Phoenix, Ariz. April 23. "Jack Johnson can toy with any heavy-weight in the world, bar none, for six rounds. After that, I don't know how you looked better than ever before." Tommy Sullivan speaking. Sullivan, now 58 years old, was a veteran boxer when he took his first knockout at the hands of Aureliel Mendes in 1905 and the ord of more than 400 fights includes victories over Oscar Gardner, Kid Herman and Billy-Cole. He traveled with the "Moulin Rouge," theatrical 11, and knows the ne-champion well. Sullivan has discarded the Tommy now. He is Frank L., if you please, of the Arizona state highway department. His interest in fights and fighters is been winning for lee long years, his weight is enriched in the core of his growing family. But two years ago he attended the race in Johnson in the Sullivan speaking for the former champion's company. Johnson worked out religiously and Sullivan, watching his old friend, became impressed by the fact that never in his career had he looked more skilled or in better wind. "Jack Dempsey would be a plaything in Johnson's hands for six rounds," says Sullivan, don't know whether he would blow up after the sixth, in six he is very fast—very, very fast. "Two years ago he stepped on the scales for me. He weighed 212 pounds. I remembered that at the SAMMY BAKER H A TERRIBL SAMMY BAKER HANDS DUDLEY A TERRIBLE RING BEATING --- New York, April 17—That Sergeant, Sammy Baker, at the Commonwealth Sport club, administered a beating to Harry Dudley, which happily, foundsureance in the sixth round, when the referee stepped in and called a halt to one of those slighters. The packer house awaited the coming star bout in a most receptive mood, for the previous bout between Joe Canamere and Jackson ended with both men on their feet and the former in a mature champ, the former in mature champ, has been stopping his men in short order, at least at the Commonwealth. Dudley tipped the beam at 147, while Baker was a pound lighter, and both men came together in what promised to be another of those hard fought encounters. The men fought carefully and when elicited gave theerce a hard time trying to break the For three rounds the same tactics were pursued and no damage was done. Although Dudley short-sarmed the attackers to contend the fast left, did not do the latter any appreciable amount of good. In the fourth, Dudley hit Dudley on the back and the attackers that meant annihilation for himself. The white fighter got ripping and being the stronger of the two winged fighters, the same result would have been the climax in the later rounds. Baker forgot to continue along the lines he had evidently planned and the attackers had deadly rights, mixed with severe body punishment that had its effect in helping to weaken Dudley. The servicemen insisted defeat at the hands of this same opponent, kept his jaw carefully covered and Dudley found it impossible to break through with it. Every time the Halam had missed, he ran into a counter mixed with the fourth, and ended of the fourth he was given such a sound trouncing he staggered completely across the ring when comparison was a repetition of the fourth, Baker had things his way and the pick was calling upon him for a knockout. Dudley going to the firing line with the same heart, but with a body which could not function in response to a brain which was wooxy from the experience, Dudley was subjected to another big dose of punishment and many thought the towel would come flying through the rapes from his second hand. The referee and the massacre was stopped in the nick of time. The action on the part of the third man began, as Dudley was in a position where he was totally unable to put WHAT BELONGS TO NEED ANY = A FRIEND S ONE! With DEFEND ens in Better Man psey—Sullivan. Krug theater in Onahua in 1911 he weighed 241 against Jim Flynn. I seconded him that night. "Jack Johnson has a greater knowledge of boxing than any other man I have ever seen, not excepting Joe Gans. While I trained and Jim Prissoel of England were wonderfully clever, they did not have the head that Johnson has." "Jem Mace?" Sullivan laughed. "You wouldn't think I was old enough to answer you, would you? Well, I know he was a person personally, he was over 70 and about 18, so of course I never saw him go. I've heard my dad talk of him and I know he had a wonderful knowledge for his day. But if he were here today, Harry Greb could have given him a terrible serum. Mace, you know, was only a middleweight. "I know nothing about Pat Lester except that his manager, Spider Kelly, is a past master of boxing and a regular seeder of that fact that I could get a draw with Toby Irwin. Toby beat me with Kelly in his corner, but you young fellows aren't interested in that. "I'll say this." If Spider Kelly has a boy he actually believes will beat Jack Johnson he has a fortune and a championship in his hands. "And matching such a boy with Johnson is the very best thing he could do to advance his cause, because their hearts that Johnson is the most feared heavyweight alive today." ANDS DUDLEY E RING BEATING up any kind of defense against Baker. Had the round gone a little further he might have suffered fatal injuries. Dudley is the third victim of Baker's death-dealing rights at the Commonwealth. The white fighter gave Frisee McGale one of the worst battles ever suffered by the westerner, who was killed in his Waterloo at the hands of the same sergeant. Reports of Dudley's success in Jersey having been broadcast, his many followers figured he had the best chance of the bot on the ground at the Commonwealth, but the sergeant is still sitting atop the world, so far as we are concerned.

"Pappy" Ricks stared another one of his wild shooting bees and single-handed amassed a score of 28 that left the team out of the Saints. A lone foul and he alone would have won the game. Saunders went in at center, while the player played game. "Fat" Jenkins left the team out of his usual place with the Harrisonburg diamond artists.

MY FRIEND IS MINE BY THE WAY, DON'T YOU CUT RUNNING WILD, DOWN AND GET A SWEET LOVING LEAGUE SEASON GETS UNDER WAY MAY 1; DETROIT STARS INVADE AMERICAN GIANTS' LAIR Kansas City, Mo. April 22.—The Kansas City Monarchs, under the management of Butler Rogan, pennant winners for the past three seasons, world's champions for 1924, are fast rounding into shape preparatory to the opening of the league season here on May 1, at which time the champions will meet the crack St. Louis Stars in a four-game series. The Monarchs have played several games of four from the St. Louis Stars at St. Louis, last week.

With the addition of Torrienti, late of the American Giants, and who has regained his position with Owens, Wilkinson and Manager Rogan believe a gap has been filled in the outfield. Mothel and McNair hold down the other positions in the outer garden. Tom Young, the big ranger for the Giants, will do the receiving, Young stands over six feet high and weighs around 200, but he can move about. Wade Johnson, who played in the outfield last season, will take his turn in the pitcher's box. He is one of the best part siders in the business of outfielders he can play that position. Saunders, a youngster who weighs 150 pounds, is one of the best recruit pitchers seen this season, and with his arm strength and harmony, and with Dean, Brewer, C. Bell, W. Bell, Saunders, Mendez and Rogan ready to take their turn, the locals can see nothing but another championship.

Reese, the last stray player of last year's great machine to report, put in his appearance behind the wheel his sport model Nash and claimed the No. 1 pick. A large delegation of St. Louis fans will go over to the game with a player from each machine. The local fans will coincide that the Monarchs will face an entirely different team than when they played their exhibition games here. BORDENTOWN, 2; FEDERALS, 0 Bordentown, N.

City At Home With the African Some Strange Things About Sundry Chiefs and Their Miscellaneous Wives, and the Weird and Mysterious Ethics of the Darkest Parts of the Tropical Jungle I was then a newcomer in Africa. One evening I reached a village, the chief of which had 15 wives for himself alone. He was an old fellow, his upper incisive teeth had been pulled out, according to the tribal custom; he had oily hair, in the midst of such party hair, and in the middle of his brushed anat. kind of twisted fringe and adorned with glass beads; in short, an aged man, dirty and ragged, if the piece of hair he wore hips could deserve the name of rags. He said to me, squatting on his front foot, he turned to me, and blushed. He said, "I'm freshly frozen." "You know, from your paper in which you write down their list, that I have 15 wives. As I heard that they increased, I intend to disambage some of them whose names will be blotted out from your books. Those wives are no use to me, and I mean to pay to help me get back the dower I paid for them, as I foresee I shall have trouble with their families." I begin at hearing that a chief can have 15 wives. I knew another one who had 300 of them: His name, if I must mention it, was "Dionantia." He is a burgher at hearing that I lived and dwell about 400 miles south of the Schad lake. This, doubtless, is her exception, after a narrative on three wives. Discuss Family Life Let us come back to my old chief. I saw at once I had there an opportunity to get useful information about the family life of the African blacks, and I tried to make my man talk. "What!" I said to him, "you want to dismiss several of your wives—then you don't care for them, do you? We might people have only one wife, we love her very much and we keep her all our life long." "Pfzt!" he exclaimed contemptuously, cracking his fingers. "The Nzanbi (God) created the white men, and then the black men. Our skins are different, so are our customs. From your brothers who came here before you I have gathered some knowledge of your customs. When my father was still alive I knew it should succeed him one day. Now, to be a chief like himself, I was well aware I should have to be rich among the blacks, as you may not know the more wives one has the richer one is and consequently, the more esteemed and respected one is. Thus it was I began to make up the dowry of my first wife. I have heard that with the white people it is the child who says. It is so?" Unusual Custom "A queer custom, which I can hardly understand—yet I don't can." Once more, our customs are different, and we are making the making of that dower was by no means an easy job. From the very beginning my future mother-in-law buzzed over it and picked a quaint piece of fabric to refuse to refuse a pig because one of its lees was twisted, and a kidding because it was one eyed! She died long ago and was put me alone, owing to the many libations and palm wine I offered on her grave. Besides, why was she so fastidious about it, since she was more than herself, perfect in body? "Then you don't try, when you could do so, to get a fine, well built "Why should I have? This may be the custom with white men but what we black men look for is a stout and poorly woman, knowing that we are not able to give us children, which is another source of wealth!" "In my turn, old chief, I will say to you a queer custom, but tell me, dismissing several of your wives!" I have been intending to do so for a long time. First of all, they are too old and cannot longer help me for my plantations, which are not Source of Income "Now, I repeat to you, children, daughters especially, are a source of income. My daughters—they are six and seven years old, they shall require for the paying of a considerable dower, for it is not anybody who can marry a chief's daughter, you will fix hard conditions, as your first mother-in-law did?" "Harder still." And the old man, drawing a hunee with a knife, also altered as ancient as himself and as sea-soned as his wrinkled face, mediated for a while, then added with justice. Tell me, do not write men when they are out or fit them no longer, give them clothes up or change them?" "Of course they do, but why such a question?" "Well," he went on, "with us, when a woman is too old or does not suit us any longer we treat her as white men do old clothes, we get rid of her or we change her for another—that's all." And the man burst out laughing as only a black man can laugh, which took hold of the onlookers, who clapped their hands at the reminder of the old fellow. I could not help laughing, too, both at the rejoinder and the hearty laughter, which reached into the near forest and scurled away a troop of birds perched at the top of some zizantic tree. I pleased with his success, the chief was in the right humor for talking. I went on with my questions. "You mentioned as a part of the dower of your first wife a crippled pig and a one-eyed killing that your sympathetic mother-in-law was reluctant to accept. Did you give, only those two animals as a dowry? I thought you tried to give much more." "We do. To those two animals I added many others. Two more pips, three billions, a gun, two leaves of wheat, a knife, pieces of cloth, two blankets and three pots. I have kept the reckoning of all that. Only, as I cannot stand on papers on paper like the white man, I have no memory. They have no memory. I have a quite as good as sheets and less perishable.

"You see," he said to me, "he is the bundle that represents the dower of my first wife, Kouloukissa." And he counted: "10 ticks for the dower of 15 for the pieces of cloth, one for the gun, et cetera." The sum was right. The old man had an unerring memory. "One must keep one's account with the umost care if one does not want, at the worst, worries and troubles with the family, always ready to quarrel over the paying back of the dower of the wife."

But we seldom ask for advice to the family. Why should we? We negotiate directly with the family, who cannot be anything but proud to give their daughter to a chief, above all to a courtier, who have been keen on a courtier and wealthy." "That is all right for a future chief; but how do your men manage, those who do not readily possess the rulings which must make up their management as they can, and it is not always very easy. for it is the richest, as you may see, for your man to manage the number of wives. The suitors must make haste for there are sometimes a good many, and if one of them offers more than the man who administers the family does not hesitate to dismiss the latter. But then—" "But, then, do you know that it is quite wrong to do so?" Country Is Quiet "This, again, is a view of the white people that we do not share. Besides, don't they do the same thing?" I ask. "They do the same thing is quiet and one can travel without being afraid to be killed and eaten. I have traveled a good deal and I have seen in an seashore how a white man in for a dinner of a white man had offered a certain price, another one did not hesitate to offer a higher price. That, too, was quite strong. Yet you must find it. "But it is not the same thing and women are not goods up for sale." We look upon them as such. Let it be repeated once more. It will be hard for white people to understand us. "Don't you have the wives who are left you, then?" I do a little, certainly, but chieftain according to the services they render me, either in the work at the kitchen or in the cooking the food or, above all, in the number of children the gave me." "This is all very strange. But in your harem does it not happen that jealousy comes in and causes pitiful "Sometimes, but the disputes of my wives do not trouble me in the least. My wives need each other—they realize it so well that my first wife, Kouluu, marries, to take another consort, as she said she had too much to do.

Now, my conversation the next morning with old Houndmil; I shall sum it up here, along with the remarks I made later, which will be shared with you. My family life and thereby are among the African blacks. Is one entitled to assert that, among the blacks, the daughter more than for his young ones, but his love is not expressed. But his love is expression. The fondness is for a daughter more than for his sons. I will mention father on the fact which occasionally shows a stress, father who loves his sons. Yet, as a rule, they interest him little. The good goods, chattails, as it were, a captain that he will negotiate later on. Are they created with a special care. No. In villages children are taught to self-serve, to self-serve up, as they can. The mother is subjected at their birth to certain rites, certain taboos on food which are not permitted to theirs, must tribes, she must stay in confinement in her but for a month or two, or even more—and that hut is stuffy and stenchful. Allowed to lead the common life again, she has performed an other rite which I am going to describe here, such as I observed it the Bakouts and Basoundi tribes. Peculiar Fetish When the mother is allowed by the fetisher, to leave her but his takes a basket made by two women, he has a three-footed baller, and the buts come red clay, a small catabash of palm and a red and a black, a bristle of the has been drawn from a fire, righted on the day when the child was born and kept constantly bunting since. Then the woman goes out with all those tools and the body; she walks three times around the hut from right to left, accompanied by members of her family. When the walking is over the fetisher, who follows her, too, drinks some of the palm wine and spits it on the baby. When she is 10 years old or even before, the daughter helps her mother in her various tasks, sweeping of the hut and its surroundings, prepared for the hunt. Both the children had a load, dark in the plantations. Rooing, wending, etc. The boy, at the same age, goes hunting or fishing with his father or follows him wherever he goes. That walking monomons of the blacks is well known they are familiar with all the country-books that are used by the children in the bush and which lead to the paltavers that take place in the most distant villages. Meanwhile, the THE CHICAGO DEFENDER African Fits and Their Miscellaneous Ethics tical Jungle africa boy lives free and untrammeled in the forest, the bush, on the banks of the rivers. come back to me. And the way being ventured to go to her, there will be afraid of me. "It is a long way ride there and you shile follow me— some pieces of me your son and I will. A few days after, riding the village called the man his son. The men grew anybody to suite of his father's distinctive marks b of the assertions o son obstinately ig vention, saying: That man who father, I do not kn always lived here, who brought me up, and they I shall stay her From that time onward, although he has the deepest feelings of affection toward her, he will follow her to the tribe. He will belong to it still more when he enters one of her families, so, common among primitive people, he is a new man. As for the girl, she stays beside her mother until the time when she arrives; she learns all that concern housekeeping so as to serve him. He must husband, as the old Bombita learns from the master, then appears the fertility of love that sees in daughters a goods to exchange, a capital to be neglected, a love that is not none but an economic importance. Want Large Dower In a word, what does the father seek? a son-in-law who will bring a considerableOWER, who, through resemblance to his family, will enable them to hold a respectable rank among their fellows. The age of the future husband's transactions are often started before the girl comes of age—sometimes as soon as the girl and boy are born, or when the family begins long discussions that hear solely on the value of theOWER, the choice of the goods or of the cattle that will be grown. The children grow rich only when they are old, one comes acrossfeeble, impotent old men united with young, strong girls, simply because they were unable to work. If after the marriage has taken place the husband finds that his wife does not suit his purpose, he holds the wife accountable, and counts for it and asks for theOWER he gave. Divorce is justified by a deficient constitution or an inadvertent mistake, and imagine that the parents of the wife try to conclude an arrangement, being well aware that after such a difficult family, will find another husband. Even when one of his wives happens to die, the widower insists upon getting back his dower, unless the wife is dead. If the widower dead wife by another one of their daughters, which is not an uncommon case. But if the husband dies first, can the wife enjoy the freedom? No, in the beast. She is not the widower's brother. She is brothers-in-law, or one of her sisters-in-law, according to the distinctions. Recognize Scar One evening I reached a village where I was to spend the night. An old man came up and explained to me that he knew his son had been a slave for a very long time in the remotest southern part of the country. A year of a burn which wounded his back when he was quite young, a limping of his right leg, he said, will be so painful his son not telling lies. I had to wait a long time before I knew what had happened to my boy, who had been kidnapped by his slave doffers. I have found out now. If you will allow me to do so I will follow you tomorrow to the village where my son lives. I have often asked him to PANCAKING 08.260.00 CONVERT AMERICA HUMO Summer Number come back to me, but all in vain. And the way being not safe, I never curried to go there myself. With you it will be nothing to be afraid of." "It is a long way," I said. "I will ride there and you could not post some of them." And some elders of the village who knew your son and I will wait for you." "That man who claims to be my father, and not know him, I have always been afraid of him, who brought me up. I have no other village but theirs, I am, happy here in the village, and I go down low go home and leave me alone.

The girl's screams frightened him away and drew the attention of Greer, who said he encountered Vanderbilt, leaving the house. Greer seized him and hustled him through the passageway to W. 14th St. Three white youths were on the ground and with the high-handing of Vanderbilt, and approached Greer men佯睬. He struck one of them and they retreated. Greer went into the Velvo office and closed the door. A few minutes later the three guzlers returned, one armed with a revolver, and fired through the glass door at Greer. He was not wounded. The Maxwell police arrested the gunmen and also took into study the proprietor of a corner confectionery, from whom they are said to have borrowed the gun. They were later released on bond. Vanderbilt was not arrested. According to the story of the little Dunn girl, Vanderbilt had been to her home before, but this was the first time he had found her alone. He is said to have attempted to the house and another little girl in the neighborhood Monday morning prior to his visit to the Dunn home. The name of this girl could not be learned.

P. Nevins, of Lawrenceburg, Ky. "I would get nauseated. I would have dizziness and couldn't work. I would take pills until I was worn-out with them. I didn't seem to get relief. "A neighbor told me of BLACK-DRAUGHT Liver Medicine and I began its use. I never have found so much relief as it gave me. I would not be without it for anything. It seemed to cleanse my whole system and made me feel like new. I would take a few doses—get rid of the bile and have my usual clear head, feel full of pep, and could do twice the work." Bilious attacks are "seasonal" with many people. Millions have taken Theodore's Black-Draught to ward off such attacks, and the good results they have reported should induce you to try it. cq John Ballard, head of the Velvo company, pointing to the damage done his office by white thugs who shot it up Monday in an effort to "get" Rush Greer, who had rescued a 12-year-old girl from a 50-year-old white moron. The trio of youthful gunmen chased Greer into the Velvo office and then plugged it with bullets.

Cullom as speaker, the election of a senator willing of the house and senate. It is reported that Mrs. Lincoln has gone on a journey to acquire equipment for going into the White House. The rush on the president-elect by job seekers has somewhat abated. The senator will be offered the state department portfolio, and that Chase will be secretary of treasury.

It is intimated the revenue cutter, Balmoral, will accompany the Star of the West on its next attempt. St. Louis, Jan. 12, 1861.—By order DARKER RACES DARKER RACES BY MORRIS LEWIS Certain world powers hold mandated colonies in Africa. In great part as the British, Italy and Portugal exercise broad powers with the native Africans. At the present hand, pretending to abolish slavery and on the other hand establishing a scheme of "forested labor" or the object of their earnest enterprise. In the Portuguese colonies of Angola for the existence of a virtual slavery. A campaign has been launched against them being slow to change her attitude. The Portuguese foreign minister tries to draw a line between compulsory labor and the obligation to work is a law of nature, the scope of which the very progress of the country must be. We must not forbid compulsory labor in such a way as to suggest to the native races (Africans) that its own diligence and a permission to enmine themselves from the law of work to which we are only be achieved by the science, capital and labor of the colonizing race (white men), working in close cooperation with the native popul It is also reported that when a man has been conscripted to work eight months or a year later, American investigators learned that, according to the nation's official statistics, the nation failed to pay them anything or forced them to suicidally that they were forced to run away before their work period expired, hence forfeiting their jobs. While the American is busy developing a case against the black population, a point is made in United States, asking that they have a look into the condition of the black population, complains that its members, although citizens of the United States by law, are not treated as such on account of their status. Again one has but to turn a page and another angle of unfair treatment on the part of the American government The United States occupied the Philippines originally as a war maze, but now subjugated as soon as they were ready for "self government."

Waverly, Ms. Ten, 12, 1631. An ultra secession meeting was held here. Resolutions were adopted denouncing the St. Louis Globe Democrat and forbidding its execution. Lincoln's officiety was burned amid the burning of cannon, torchlights and music. Augusta, Ga.; Jan. 14, 1861—The reason for Alabama's secession is given in the convention's ordinance here: "The sectional party avowedly hostile to the domestic institutions and peace and security of the people of the state of Alabama, many and dangerous infractions of the Constitution of the United States by many of the state and people of the state of Alabama, so insulting a character as to justify the people of the state of Alabama in the adoption of prompt and decided measures for their future peace and security." Washington, D. C., Jan. 15, 1861—The speech of Senator Hunter made a statement that he declared the Union already dissolved and that no power could restore it. It was now gone and there was nothing to do. He invited the Union to sit on its southern basis. The slave states must make a new constitution incorporating guarantees for slavery that would protect it beyond the power of the slave states to be invited to annex themselves to the southern confederacy and live thereafter under the new pro-slavery constitution which would make slaves and prevent the majority from ruling. Montgomery, Ala., Feb. 14, 1861.—The confederate congress named standing committees. A resolution that as soon as President Jefferson Davis is inaugurated commissioners be sent to the United States was referred. Natchez, Miss., Feb. 20, 1861.—The Courier says: "Instead of the news of the appointment of Jefferson Davis as provisional president being received here with alearthy, it was received with regret. Neither in character nor politics has he any hold on the people. He has at last attained what he has been struggling for for 10 years past, a presidency. We may admire the ingenuity with which he has attained his object, and yet despise the tricks by which he has crawled to it." covery that his predecessor had been much more liberal in interpreting the laws of the Philippines. To cap the climax and as a last straw on the camel's back, President Coolidge is advocating increase in the number of American citizens there has also developed great activity on the part of the American Chamber of Commerce of the islands to annex the islands, and the Filipinos are becoming more active in the rubber, of which that country can be made a big producer. They are not unmimicking of the much advertised move to establish a governmental holdings in Liberia, where sooty and the "darker races" is so poorly but surely establishing a government of nations as well as that of Liberia, have been assailed on the floors of the United States congress. Little wonder then that the promising citizens of the Philippines should sit up and take notice. A defensive move has been made by the Filipinos. The congress of the island nation has declared the principal parties, modeled after the great parties in the United States. One Republican and the other the Democratic American slogan, "United we stand, divided we fall." They have therefore, and hurry any petty or low differences for the good of the island government. They have resolved to maintain their resolution says that this council shall have the high command of Filipino policy in everything concerning the indictment of the president, may affect the relations between the United States and the Philippines, and in the administration of the country at large. Thus it will be seen in the concrete case of the Filipinos who have been convicted of the crime that they believed the lessons taught them deserves of protecting themselves under the feeling that Patrick was right to be said, "Give me liberty, or death." Darker races throughout the world seem to be tuzzing at the chains that bind them and as they grow in intelligence, a needed accomplishment, recognized as essential, they are advancing in statesmanship and the proud Nordies are beginning to find them a formidable part of our human snee, Haiti, Liberia, the Riffs, the Pilgrimo and hordes of darker races are raising a cloud that is slowly crystallizing and may yet engulf the world.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER CHARLES HOBBS, WOMAN SLAYER, IS EXECUTED Spends Last Moments in Prayer Charles Hobbs, the 27-year-old Mississippiian, who murdered a Chicago woman for 75 cents, paid off with his life Friday morning, April 16. In the second double banging which the Cook county death chamber has seen in two months, the slayer of Bettie Barnett, 19-year-old girl, found dead under a bed at 1222 Mohawk St., Dec. 21, 1925, walked to the gallows at 9:28 a.m. m., and was presumed dead initially at 9:30 a.m. But the moment when the noose was being tightened, Hobbs presented a striking contrast to Raymond Costello (whitel), murderer, who approached a saffold with a cigarette in his mouth. Two gallows had been erected at the end of the cold, dank chamber where the state' of Illinois takes its final toll from the takers of human Two sets of execution tools took their place in the courtyard, littering solemn death march from the prison cells. As Holbs walked out, accompanied by Rev. Hewlett Hooper of the Holiness church, he moved toward the gallows on the right, while the white murderer, Costello, stood smoking under the nose on the left. Hothorn, the man in the chamber and the weird death wall sounded through the county fall. Confesses Murder Late Thursday night when Hobbs was told that Governor Small had refused him a stay of execution he broke out in a crazy laugh. "Sure, I killed her," he said. "Choked her That's me. But there's no use to cry. I've made my peace with God." As he sat in his cell in the presence of reporters he related the circumstances which led up to the brutal murder. It was on Monday evening. Dec. 21 he said it happened. he began "I didn't mean to kill her. I was just defending myself against the butcher knife she held." Then Hobbs told how he had lived as a roofer at the Barnett home. It was a disorderly house, he said. On Monday morning and afternoon a wild party had been held, and a man in the presence of liquor had been consumed. Both he and the girl and enjoyed their share of it. Quarrel Over Money When the party reached its end about 5 o'clock, the girl begged him to go to the store and buy something for supper. Upon his return they quarreled over the change. She took the knife he accused and said he was 75 cents short. In the midst of the argument, he said, Miss Barnett* seized a large butcher knife and stepped toward him. He warded off the knife and choked her to death. Fearing that he would be murdered the murder he denged the knife into his mouth and under the bed, placed a trunk strap across her neck and made his escape to his former home in Shaw, Miss.

First get some very coarse sandpaper or steel wool similar to that used for cleaning kitchen utensils. The steel wool finish will be better than the sandpaper, although it will take a lot longer to finish the panel with the steel wool. Rub the panel in long even strokes in one panel or back and forth along its length, but in one direction only, otherwise scratches will appear. Continue to rub until the glossy black finish is entirely obliterated. In a short while the panel will be covered with gray dust. Wipe this off with a damp cloth. Any spots that are black. Next procure five or six sheets of the finest sandpaper and a bottle of lubricating oil. Pour some of the oil on the pane and spread it all over the surface in a thing coating. Rub this coating on the panel. Take care not to rub through the oil and cause a gray place to appear. Next, taking care not to rub through the oil and dust, apply a second coating of oil. Rub this down and repeat for the third and last time. Continue until the glossy black finish containing traces of oil can be taken and the panel will be finished. It is best to wrap the sandpaper around a small block of wood, holding the wood and paper together, and rubbing the wood against the panel.

Every owner is required by the government to have a permit and to pay a tax of 50 cents monthly. Of the 1,000,000 and more users of receiving sets 400,000 are in the Berlin district, about 100,000 in the district of Hamburg and about 105,000 in the district of Leipzig. There are about twenty broadcasting stations in Germany which serve for general broadcasting. Of these 11 are main senders (Haupu sender), corresponding with American high power stations, and the other nine are secondary senders. Some of these secondary stations own programs; generally, however, they relay the programs of the high-power stations. Considering that two years ago there were not many users of receiving sets in Germany, the manufacture of sets has shown extraordinary growth in the spring of 1923 about one hundred makers of radio sets and accessories exhibited their products. There are now about five hundred wholesale and retail radio establishments, and the number is rapidly growing. Special impetus has been given to the growth by the increasing the restricting broadcasting the sale of sets in the formerly occupied territory where strong demand now exists.

With that in mind, plenty of space is being planned to conceal a large symphony orchestra on one side of the church, and to conceal it on the other. In addition to this, there would be the regular church vested choir of men and boys, which, of course, would be visible. Then when the vested choir would swing into the church, the choir would be immersed volume of the hidden orchestra and chorus to make it the most thrilling thing possible for the cathedral would afford all the vaulted space for the sound to go through.
