"Resolved, That This House Opposes Any Change in the Eighteenth Amendment This contest, unique, in Ariz. collegiate history and significance in the annals of the annual meetings in Arizona, is the only one both races. It was marked by the earnest and brilliant oratory of the Lincoln team and the skirking wit and sarcasm of the English speaker in the committee composed of members of the Urban league, the Federation of Churches, Lincoln alumni and kindred organizations. This debate was won by the Irish team who are concluding a tour of this country in which they have met teams from all of the leading American colleges. They have won several辩论 other side of the prohibition question.

WAR RECORD AND BRAVERY SAVE HIS LIFE Was Sentenced to Die for Two Murders Montgomery, Ala., Dec. 24. Commutation to life imprisonment of the death sentence of John Umbles, Race convict and former personal orderly to General John J. Pershing, was unanimously recommended on Tuesday to Governor William W. Brandon by the state board of pardons and paroles. Because of Umbles' war record and his drowning at Spitfinger, prison last summer, the board objected to his execution, set for three days after prison. Already serving a life sentence for killing his wife in a family quarrel at Birmingham early in 1821, Umbles voluntarily returned to Jefferson for his trial. The former prisoner, the skying of his sister-in-law, in spite of conflicting testimony, at his second trial he was sentenced to be hanged on May 25th. The former bodyguard of the commander-in-chief of the American Expeditionary Force, the parole board rectified, killed both women and a man, while wounding himself slightly, but later resigned himself to life in prison and achieved such a good record that he was made prisoner after less than a year in a cell. Umbiles has spent most of his time as a servant in different departments at the state council here. For a position in the house at the Spinner prison lake where he served the lives of five men and women when their boat was galvanized in a storm. Brandon was not in Montgomery Tuesday, but confidence was expressed that he would save Umbiles from the sultans. Up Now in a New Light Washington, D.C. Dec. 24—Nichols advocates to the status of President Lincoln in the Lincoln Memorial Commission, to the government authorities that the electrical lights played on the face of the statue in such a way as to give it a swastikat expression that was repulsive. Lighting experts want to work with Nichols to correctly the face of the statue. Now new illumination makes Lincoln's face stand out in force and dignity as it should. Sherwin, Resident Artist St. Louis, Mo. Dec. 24—Herlery Teeters, 29 years old, of 4116 Wollie B, was shot in the left chest and arm last Monday by topper T. Louis county. Teeters is in serious condition at Barnes hospital. Mitchell said he shot Tester when the youth advanced toward him with an open knife. The deputy was attempting to arrest him. Senate to Probe Disfranchisement New Men in Wilberforce Graft Quiz Xenia, Ohio, Dec. 24.—Wilberforce university is still in the throes of the investigation into her financial affairs which has been under way for eight weeks by Sheridan A. Brusieux and his operatives of the Keystone National Detective agency of Chicago. Dr. Joseph L. Johnson, retired physician, president of the board of trustees and prominent contractor in the scope of the investigation. When witnesses shifted to appear for questioning before State Examiner Frank K. Brown are examined next week, Dr. Evans, former man for Dr. Johnson, Evans will be asked why he has contracts for building cottages for 45,000, and wajy at the present time for the athletic funds and are supposed to be working on the athletic field, but are working on his contract. Shield Children Record Through Sheriff Morris. Sharp of Xenia, the records of the church side of the university were examined, but a stop to talks with Dr. Gilbert T. president of the institution, paid off the judgments in the hands of the sheriff, who sought payments on the attorneys and automatically received the church records of the school. As the probe goes on more and more misappropriations are uncovered, reaching into thousands of dollars, the investigation into the case were informed that 15,000 were collected at the Founder's day celebration in February, 1952, but Bishop Jodhua H. II. Jones, builder of Shoreer hall and oak, were accused of receiving 19,000, according to information, and the discrepancy still exists. One of the most sensational dis- BAR HAITIAN ENVOY AT COOLIDGE DINNER Washington, Dec. 21—The minister of Haiti, Hamadell Price, and his wife, were not present at the diplomatic dinner at the White House, where the guest list contained their names, but with a heavy pencil lines were drawn through them. The real reason for their absence was that the house officials told newspaper men that invitations had been sent to the Haitian minister and his wife, but they had sent their "regrets." The diplomatic dinner in Washington, the affair given by the president and attended by all foreign representatives in Washington, to be overlooked is not only an insult to the representa- tion of the country from whence he came. ANIMOSITY PEACE ON EARTH GOOD WILL TOWARD MEN THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT U.S.A. DIES IN FIRE THAT BREAKS UP GRAP GAME Gamblers Upset Stove in Quarrel St. Louis, Mo., Dec. 21.—A dice game in the kitchen of Mrs. Jennie Heard's residence on Mahel Ave. Klnock Park, ended when she was shot in the right hip and abdomen and her home was completely destroyed by fire early last Tuesday morning. Deputy sheriffs found the charred body of a man in the rulers, Mrs. Heard said several men guests had been at her home during the evening, playing dice in the kitchen. Among them was Leonard Moss, 25, and Henry Adams, 35. Moss had a revolver which he laid in her lap while he played. Quarrelling with Adams, he snatched it up and began to fire. He fired, five or six shots, two of which hit her, Mrs. Heard, related. A stampee for the door ensued. Some one upset a small stove, she declared, and when she looked back home, she noticed her guests had fled. The woman, who is 47 years old, was taken to Barnes hospital in a house near the city where she is searching for persons who might have been in the party. The body in the rules was burned beyond recognition, but it is believed probably was shot and unable to escape from the burning house. HAPPY Selma, Ala. Dec. 24—Emerging safe and sound from 11 years in Africa as a missionary, Lucius Dampert, preacher, came to grief here when he exhorted occupants of the county jail. New Dampert in the heat of his sermon appealed to the community of a cell occupied by several interested criminals. His gold watch and chain vanished through the grazing and a search of the prisoners proved futile. KLAN, LEGION WAR ABOUT CATHOLICS Birmingham, Ala., Dec. 24—Conflit is raging between the Ku Klux Klan and the American Legion in Alabama, over an attack attributed to Grand Dragon James Escalade on the Catholic faith of National Commander Howard P. Savage of Chicago. Frank Dixon of Birmingham, state Legion commander. Wednesday called on Escalade to explain his criticism of Savage's religion, and of the appointment of Father Edward Gracey, Cleveland Catholic priest, as national chaplain. So far the Klan official has not ventured to answer charges contained in a published exposure of Klan documents that he attempted to disrupt the Legion through an appeal to religious prejudice. Dixon proclaimed that the Legion was an organization disregarding a hierarchical difference and manipulated a special issue of the region state executive committee to investigate the incident. ARREST BOXER FOR DEATH OF HIS OPPONENT Police Hold Pug Who Struck Fatal Blow Pending the coroner's inquiry Dec. 22 into the cause of the death of Fred Candany, a young jiro fighter of 124 years, Mihi Gioseco of 164 years, and Mihi Gioseco of whom Candany boxed Dec. 10 at Ferretti's gymnasium, 23d St. and Millard Ave. was held. He was taken into custody Saturday afternoon at the Lawnville coroner's office, summoned to make a statement. Taylor was brought to the boy's court Monday for a hearing before Judge Taylor. Candany's death followed after a three-round boxing match with Taylor, who sent him to the floor in the third round with a right punch to the chin. The blow rendered him unconscious, and the boxing restoratives in vain and he was removed to the county hospital, where he died last Tuesday. The gymnasium physician is said to have asserted that the blow he had received, but was from the effects of a heavy meal he had eaten before entering the ring. According to Taylor's statement, the first two rounds were Candany's, and the third round to come out winner. But the knockout blow settled him in the third round. After the death of Candany, Taylor said he made a statement to this. This, he police, who refused to hold him, told him to appear at the inquiry. NATIONAL EDITION If the proposed senate probe "reforms" the South, this is how Dixie's congressional representation will be affected: Now Then Alabama 10 2 Arkansas 7 2 Florida 4 1 Georgia 12 2 Louisiana 8 2 Mississippi 8 2 North Carolina 10 7 South Carolina 1 1 Tennessee 8 2 Texas 18 0 Virginia 10 3 Total 102 30 Washington, D. C. Dec. 24. A "gentleman from the South" rose up in his seat in the United States senate Monday morning, and started an investigation, that, if cared through, will run two-thirds of Dixie's senators right straight out of the senate. He didn't do it on purpose. But today southern congressmen are a probs which was intended to throw the spotlight on Republican politics in the South may end up by airing some of their own dirty lines. (The senator) from Georgia who started the ball rolling with a senate resolution to investigate the Republican party in before the senate judicial committee, Senator Ernst (Republican) from Kentucky, decided to broaden it little and proposed an open proposal to while the "investigating" being done, a little publicity be given to the strange and wondrous workings of the Democratic party in the Proves Boomerang Today 'fraud and violence hold Dixie's senators in their seats.' "Gentlemen from the South" are holding seats in the nation's highest legislature. "It legitimates votes in their pockets." Intrigue and trickery of the rankest sort were described in the senate corridor rumors of what will be brought in as evidence. If the probe goes well, the senate will little on the American South, old politicians declared, in the gentle art of taking a huge portion of a electorate and rubbing their noses in the mud. Diffrencement and political corruption, they asserted, matched climax in the states "below the line."

New York, Dec. 24.—(Special)—Jammed like rats aboard a frail, unseaworthy craft just before dawn Monday, 100 laborers mingled Christmas carols with their half-sobbed prayers for the safety of a craft that every wave was dashing harder and harder against the huge ice floes of the Hudson river. Before a cold sun had broken through the clouds that darkened New York's drear sky line, 30 of them had found an levy grave in the harbors of our Race. Gives S O'S Call A tue nearing the W. 96th St. pler saw the boat as she careened and gave an S O S call. Rescuing yurs all those in life, all those in life. Twenty-five of the number are now in the hospital. 29 are known dead, and 23 await identification at the morgue. Fifteen are the men were trapped in the submerged cabin of the launch Linseed King, a vessel said to be unseachable to the plant of Spencer, Kellogg & Sons at Edgware, N. J., but disaster overtook them as the boat careened and filled in the middle of the water. When all versions of what caused the disaster were placed together it appeared that the boat, heavily loaded, struck an ice lake and the boat careened and filled in the middle of the water, forced it over until it filled and sank. Life Preservers Few Life preservers were few and hard to reach, the investigation showed. The launch was only 42 feet long, it was stated, the first rescue reached the ship, the first arrested John Robwolter, the white captain of Jersey City, for humiliate and criminal negligence. He faces at least 20 years in Robwolter, who engineered the crew, yelled at fisheries waiting for transportation Monday at the W. 96th St. pler: "Hurry up! You mate, and I've got to rush this crowd over." There was a rush for the launch and in a few minutes her cabin, not more than 20 feet long, was filled below three feet deep, off behind the cabin hatch. As Inkweller cast off his line and started his motor, three others made a flying leap and landed just on the stern, slipping and catching at a hand rail, laughing at the dangerous risk they had taken to aboard. The disaster was the worst since the Siocum horror of many years ago. Hours after the rescue ship began to take out the dead, the bodies of eight men were found jammed in the narrow hatch. Their faces showed evidence of the terrific fight they had made to crowd their way through. It is believed that when the ice has melted more bodies will be found.

C., Dec. 24—Calm Augustine's school prevented St. Agnes' school life Thursday night, Dec. 16, when fire startling in the sterilizing room burned the roof off St. Agnes' hospital, several hours before it strayed the third floor of the building, doing damage estimated at $13,000.

Patients Carried Out Forty-four patients at St. Aenex were carried to safety from smoke-tilled buildings and temporarily placed in dormitories of the St. Aenex hospital, where they were pitched on artificial grounds. Later the most seriously ill were removed to the McCauley hospital maintained here by Dr. McCauley, one of the city's leading Trace physicians. Zero Weather Hampers Zero weather, the coldest of the year, made the fire a mast one to fight and after the blaze was under control leftovers festooned the eaves of the damaged building, glittering like the high-powered searchlights of the fire fighters. The blaze started about 7:45 from an overheated pipe in the sterilizing room of the hospital. The fire dept. sent in a fire extinguisher, sought to quench the flames with chemical extinguisher. The failed and they turned their attention to getting the patients from the burning building. The fire arrived, the roof of the burning building fell in. The flames were confined to the third floor.

INSTITUTE DEK 93, GPOB 223, NEW YORK THE FEDERAL CONFERENCE ON THE AMERICAN REPUBLIC More than 500 persons of both races attended the testimonial banquet and reception Friday, Dec. 14, the Vincennes and the Indiana in honor of H. Wright, member of the Illinois commerce commission and committeman of the Second ward. The affair went on record as having been the finest event in the city, and was stricly nonpartisan. Representatives of every political faction in the city were present to pay their respects to Commissioner J. H. L. Larson, the dean of the Second ward, acting as toastmaster, told the guests that The Meaning of Christmas "That one far-off divine event To which the whole creation moved." By REV. THEODORE STEPENHIS There has been, during the countless neons, long before the first noblebu which proceeded in con- tinuous degrees from the sun of the squint, heat, and illumination, this terraqueous globe, a "going forth of the Almighty which has been of old, even from everlasting." This "going forth" is the infinite working of the divine love in union with the divi- sive wisdom, the end of which flow- ed. And she is inside of the divine that a "heaven of angels from the human manager." And the The realization of so divine and ideal without a personal knowledge of the Creator by the created, and a mutual reciprocation, is found in the very nature of things, have been incomplete. To effectuate the more humally this reciprocal conjunction, the Lord was willing to take upon Himself planes and degrees of human life by which he could be the natural world. The effectual consummation of so miraculous an "event" in its infinite and eternal completeness on the plane of human vision and human consciousness, the far-off divine event toward which had moved the whole creation. Christmas a "Necessity" Christmas was a necessity. Human nature in its higher settings had become spiritually degraded. The secret springs of human life had become spiritually abstracted. Man's desire for the freedom of his freedom to choose and to act, become perverted, and in this inversion of the divine order of life, man's thoughts away from God and had centered them upon other objects. Man's supreme fall was, however, his belief that he lives of himself, not from God and consequent, that he does not exist. A crises inconceivably great and pregnant with the most difficult consequences to both the spiritual and material nature of man, as well as the moral nature of man, and a total extinction of the human race threatened. To avert so terrible a calamity the Lord God, who is Jehovah, came into the world, and brought down, and without this coming, commonly known as Christmas, "no mortal could have been saved." He came into the world to heal the breach on earth by people occulted by their love of God. The work of bridging the gap which, for long centuries had separated the human from the divine, the Communicator of Life (by imposition of man's spirit) was, by God the Creator, who Himself became the redeemer of the world, and as reckoned by time, begun on Christmas, I. C. 4. The whole creation had moved towards the happy consumption of "That one far-off divine event." The angelic heavens had not rested until they had sent forth "sation as he had worked, unfortuitously, toward the realization of the Lord's advent into the world. What work did the heavens do?" They contributed much wherewith the Lord God of heaven clothed Himself, prior to taking flesh and blood, i. e. a human mind and a human body, by which He made it possible for the "labe of Bethlehem." Furthermore, the heavens had given visions and revelations; they had foretold prophecies and had even given the recording to which express pattern the Israelite tabernacle was constructed, and by means of which the divine divine among men. The heavens did the alpine word-revealed truth. The Jewish nation made specific contributions to the accomplishment of "This one far-off divine event"—Christmas. They kept alive in the hearts and minds of the human race the tradition of the temple worship, the preservation of the scriptures in the original Hebrew, their "types and shadowy" their festivals, and even their preservation as a nation, the knowledge and worship of the true and only God who himself could no longer be forgotten, in mercy, in all clemency and commiseration became in the person of Jesus Christ, "God with us"; "God manifest in the flesh." Other nations also contributed largely to make it possible for all of the miracles of the miracle of all miracles—the incarnation of Jehovah in the flesh. Greeks Contribute The Greeks under Alexander the Great supplied the partial unification of the human race by its wealth of literature and philosophy which became the leading language and thought of the civilized world. Not in vain did Plato write of the "Archtypus" of the human being, "The Humanity of the Universe." Persia contributed Zoronater and Cyrus the great; the latter POLITICAL LEADER HONORED THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN IS SHOWING A NEW CITY CITY CITY the affair was a surprise to Mr. Wright and was being given by loyal citizens who wanted to show the local police legal services he has rendered the Republican party during the recent campaign, election and official canvass. Three-minute speeches were given by the candidates and hundreds of letters and telegrams of congratulations were read by George McCoo, secretary to Mr. Wright. An outstanding feature of the event was the live revue staged by Lawrence Deas of the Cafe De Paris and music by the Cafe De Paris orchestra, under Effectuated the deliverance of the Jews from their almost intermittable bondage of 70 years in Judea. Home with her laws disciplined the Jews, even decreed a concession in the year 114 C, 4 which gave occasion to Mary and her espoused, husband to go to Bethlehem. "And so it was that, while they were there, the days were ever shortened. And she brought forth her first born Son and wrapped Him in swaddling clothes and laid Him in a manger." And the attendant angels said to the shepherds: "Pear not, child, bring you should be to people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord."—Christ Achovah. He led to Rome, and there was intercourse between the "East," which gave the "Three Wise Men, the gold, the frankincense and the myrrh." Between Persia, Palestine, Egypt, Gaul, Spain, Britain, Greece, Carthage, Asah Minor, northwestern Africa, where there was universal communication. The last contribution was, however, made by the Jews. They gave John the Baptist, who "prepared the way of the Lord." And so all the nations of the earth have in some way contributed something which is not yet feltive that once "far-off divine event" the Christmas which it is both our duty and our privilege to celebrate. Must Teach Real Meaning It is the church's duty to keep in the hearts and minds of men the Christmas. By its means should we allow our joys, our celebrations, or even our gifts to the poor and needy to obscure the true nature and real meaning of Christmas. We do well to remember that Christmas is our time; right we are not to forget that Christmas is essentially the children's festival. It is meet that we should continue to exchange greetings, and to send to them gifts of Christmas and abroad, those gifts and good wishes tokens of our hearts' affection as originally exemplified by the gifts of the Wise Men to the infant Jesus. Give all, let us not forget that with the Christmas turkey and the Christmas plum pudding and the gifts given and those received, there should be the thankful heart to the Christmas redeeming, hewn at Christmas time and consumated at the time of His ascension into "the heaven of heavens." "Merry Christmas time is here." The occasion—Christmas Unite! us to thank God for the day of the angels' song, for the day of this sad world's hope, for the day of our birth, for the day of which brings us to its light, to its joys, and to its every blessing, let us give to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."

PAUL Get Theater Man Nice Jail Rest (Picture on Page 5) St. Paul, Dec. 24.—Hace segregation and discrimination were dealt a crushing blow here Monday when Judge Gin H. Lewis of the district court sentenced Charles Smith (white) doorkeeper of the Laycum theater, to four months in jail or payment of $300 fine for refusal to admit three well known women of our Race to the first floor of the theater after they had purchased tickets at the box office. The case was bitterly fought, the jury deliberating 48 hours before it reached a verdict of guilty. This is the first time in the state of Minnesota case involving discrimination because of color has been won in the criminal courts. St. Paul, which for many years enjoyed the reputation of being the most form of racial presecution in public places, has of late been growing more and more prejudiced due to the continuous injustice of "crackers" from the southern states. In this case the proof of guilt was overwhelming. On Nov. 17, three young women, Miss Elizabeth Murray, 18, Miss Elizabeth Murray, 18, and Miss Elizabeth Murray, 18, were peremptorily refused on the grounds that she was a later Mrs. Mayne Murray, 699 Carroll St., mother of one of the young women, stepped to the window of the office and purchased four books from the bookstore, which caught the young women. Mrs. Murray, who is very light in complexion, immediately passed through the door and took her seat on the main door. But she was not permitted to pass the doorkeeper, he refused them admittance and ordered them unstairs. They not only refused to go but also refused to use the case. They were defended by Attorney George W. Hamilton, chairman of the executive board of the N.A.A. A.C.F., and an attempt to secure a suspended sentence was denied by Judge Ollu B. Lewis. PEORIA CITIZENS WIN Peoria, Ill. Dec. 24.—Through the efforts of the Civil Rights league, members of our lace here can now attend downtown theaters for the first time, being humiliated and regretted. Less than six months ago, members of our group who attended downtown theaters were forced to all sit in the theater's seats. Attorney Frank Summers, formerly of Chicago, seeking that such a thing was not only a disgrace to the city, but to the state, in which the league was located, immediately a suit was begun under the civil rights bill of the statute. The case came to trial last week, and the plaintiff, represented by Attorney Summers. PRISONER SLAYS HIS PAL IN JAIL FIGHT --- URBAN LEAGUE SEES ADVANCE IN INDUSTRY Finds New Chances for Employment Baldwin No. 9 of the industrial relations department of the National Urban League summarizes employment conditions throughout the country as follows: "The cities—among them Cincinnati, Cleveland, St. Louis, Houston and Chicago—report a slowing down in industry which is to be expected this time of year. In St. Louis, the industry has been slowing in the foundries and mills, employers say this condition cannot obtain for more than 60 days. Molders have received work as laborers in mills in the past, but are now up. More race workers are being used in the building trades in Columbia, and in Austin, Texas, more are being hired because they are cheaper labor. There is a movement of workers into Chicago and Hot Springs, Art. The movement to the latter city is being made up by the importation of men by the railroads. In New York city strikers and strikebreakers are still taking a hard fight against the workers' strike, which is now in its 10th week, and members of the Motion Picture Operators' union are still picking a Harlem theater employment to nonunion operators. At Jackson, Mich., the new Hotel Hayes, opened recently, is hiring Race hall boys and waiters under a new Race Hall, in Cleveland, Ohio, girls have been placed as elevator operators in a large department store which formerly used men. The men were required to other jobs. On the Gun, the new Sky-water Park development is said to be $20,000. Members of the Race are doing practically all the work, both skilled and unskilled. The union man in charge of a small factory had consistently refused to accept dark-skinned apprentices. Recently he left, and the owner refused to accept union man apprentices. The union man apprentices. The Brooklyn Urban League has placed two boys with this firm. At San Antonio, Texas, a Race Hall boy employs a million dollar worker in the section where members of our group live. In New York City four stenographers have been placed in a white office and openings made in other fields as a result of a campaign being organized by the New York Urban League to induce white enterprises to hire Race workers for positions where they are trained to fill ACADEMY WILL HOLD 1926 MEET IN D. C. SLAYS MILKMAN WHO TRIES TO ROB HIM Port Huron, Mich., Dec. 21—charged with murder in the second degree, William man here, who conducts a grocery store at 2525 Moak St. is being held in the Anderson fire five bullets into the body of Harry Strevel (white), 40-year-old man in early Saturday evening at the store. Despite a severe grilling by police in self defense, "he tried to hold me up and I shot him," Anderson's first brief statement to police. After sitting on the allied holdup man, he called the police. He neglected their arrival. They found Strevel's body lying in a pool in the basement of Charles Duncan, who lives over the store, told police that he heard the quarrelling and later heard the man said, the six shots were fired. Calls Claim Absurd Boston, Mars, Iee, 21- Four studies of technology were reported after a plot in a resort known as The Tent.

Composers Win New York.—The test suit started a few years ago by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers, a trade company of Schenectady for copyright infringement vin remote control broadcasting of a radio performance, was decided in favor of the society. The judge, Judge Thomas D. Thatcher handed down a decision and opinion. The specific instance mentioned by the society was the broadcasting of a performance by Jerome H. Renlake & Co. The radio station broadcast the composition while it was being played at the Kommure hotel, Albany, and a drive to the studio relied the mule. This is the first infringement action wherein the studio did not broaden the range of the song, that while the studio did not infringe the original playing of the song, it created an opportunity for others to infringe it, constituted a contributory infringement. This court was of the opinion that no analogy could be drawn between the radio station and some one playing music on the remote control microphone. Judge Thatcher pointed out that the studio was using strong electrical current to manipulate many people within a radius of several hundred miles could listen in. It also cited procedent wherein other courts declared a radio performance to be an infringement and one for profit within the intent of the infringement. The charges of the minimum $250 and $1,000 in counsel fees were allowed.

Why should we stand around and hammer the fellow who sees a little fancy in these questions, and these questions may seem perplexing, and I am going to take a little space explaining this condition after years of careful observation. The fellow who is always hammering is the one who has less to do. He is lacking in ambition or he has failed in his endeavors and lacks the grit to try again, consequently moving in neither direction, and his only pleasure is wielding the hammer. Second, the progressive fellow does not pay any attention to the knucker and is welding. This animates the knucker and he becomes more violent. He raps because the progressive fellow savages what he earns, applies himself to the task, and renders efficient service. This adaptability to his art causes him to be in demand for public service. He reaps a harvest of business, and this agitates the trifier to the extent of Bunch, get out of this way of feeling towards the progressive fellow in the progressive fellow is making hay. What you want to do is to try to catch up, stop hammering use that knowledge with the knowledge of your art.

A Fine Drummer One of the finest trap drummers in the country is George Reeves, coming out of the old school. His training and experience are unquestionable. He drummes in a few easy songs to the days when Reeves came up. In those days our boys had to man the corner, playing heavy musical comedy productions. They had to be intimate with the crowd. They had to read music. They had to be real honest-to-goodness drummers. It was much different than today, when a drummer has to elimb all over his drum set a monkey, hit a drum, and all kinds of capers to be called a good drummer. Reeves is not of this type. He plays drums as they should be played, theoretically. He is a fine musician and a man with the Columbia burlesque show and will play Chicago next week. One-Arm Correlist Here is a player that does as much with one hand as the two-handed corner players do. His name is who Caperter, player now touring the Pantings time, will reach him at 610 Adams St., Detroit, Mich. C.

Mr. White has taught at the able masters and at one time was conductor of the Victorian Concert orchestra of 63 players in Boston, Mass. He is now director of music at the West Virginia College of Music. He has thanked him for the finger gymnastics sent with his autograph.

GRAPH COMPANY y, New York mbia records dals Without Scratch NOTES THE CHICAGO DEFENDER Are we losing the true spirit of Christmas? Has it become to us just one of the several national holidays? Is it to us, just the beginning of a week's vacation for school kildies and college students? The institution of a week's idleness and questionable sports for thousands of laborers? The excuse of a city while uniless of pleasures and excesses by other millions? There are unquestioned and whose health is a rebuke to the medical profession, who do not know why Christmas is celebrated and a child of their ages 16, 17 and 21, respectively, who had never heard the Story of the Cross, and the name of Jesus Christ was to be taken out of an institution, heard the question asked of a girl 18 years of age. "Why is Christmas celebrated?" Without a moment's hesitation she answered. That's what I did. Here in America, the mud chase after the almighty dollar has just about anaesthetized all our senses but the one that detects the odor of Christmas is assimilate enough of the Christmas spirit to last through the holidays. And a number of others imbue a brand of spirits that makes them more like names and slurs their mother-in-law. The birth of Christ was heralded with pomp and glory unsurpassed. Myrids of white-winged angels, ascending and descending, Illumination and the palestol of Gods eternal throne.

OBSERVATIONS The Christmas Spirit of mankind. A birth as humble as that of the divinely favored, simple-minded shepherds. The humble birth of the greatest reformer that ever lived, the first to teach for years, is so patent that the first for power and the greed for gold cannot halt the steady progress of Christianity's march. "Peace on Earth Goodwill Toward All Christians," the slogan that should be placed in all the shop windows, above the doors of every church and public building and embazoned in flaming letters across the principal streets that all might see and none forget the true significance of Christmas day. Peace on Earth to all men and Goodwill to all men. Not to some men not to the rich men, or white men not to the poor men, but to all men of all the world. The message that heralded the birth of Christ meant the belief that God had come to do away with old beliefs, obsolete religions, worn out tradition, foolish customs and ignoble prejudices, and had come to establish the joy of joy, peace, love, forgiveness, fall to love or abide by his gospel of joy, peace and goodwill towards all men, we have not the Christmas spirit, we have not the gift of our gift to others by the view of the present we expect to receive in return, we have not the Christmas spirit. The Christmas spirit is a gift that love, devoid of selfishness and great enough to include all humanity. Just received a letter from A. W. Wynne, a young student of Miami, Ph.

Josephine Baker has signed a partnership with the Yale Bercereg, "extending her engagement with that theater until 1955." Lucky Sambo company is playing at the Lafayette theater, New York.

BROWNING London, England / special to the Defender) - The "Vermalle Three" doing well, is usual. This is the first time in a number of years that those boys have played for Sir Owain McCawley, they are at the Hackney Empire. The ever popular John C. Payne Esq. gave a most beautiful birthday concert of the Blackhall orchestra, Mr. "Sirimp" Jones, and to be sure was indeed the finest affair of the year, parties that Sir John's has given. Mr. and Mrs. Eddie Whaley, Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Cochran, the very popular theatrical manager of the show Mr. and Mrs. H. Browning, Mr. and Mrs. George Garner, Jr. Chicago, Ill.; Mr. and Mrs. Pike David, New York City; Mr. and Mrs. Lea Alexander, of Florence Mills, Lea Alexander, of Calvin Jones, Indianapolis, Ind.; Mr. B. Saltimore, New York city, and many others of Sir John's friends. After all it 'takes Sir John to do what he did, big way in a big city like London. This party will long be remembered by everyone who attended and even by little Isabella Browning, who was a specially honored guest. This party was also enjoyed by her and she re-ly enjoyed it and to such an extent that it was hard to convince the beautiful Mrs. C. C. Cochran that *Haroldine* was only 45 months old. However, they certainly enjoyed it. There is only one John Payne in London, whose pleasure is to open the doors of his beautiful home to our people, in order that they may enjoy themselves in the usual way. It is also interesting to know that Manchester has a native son in the person of Lem Johnson, the Negro low of Color in England, Johnson is a middleweight and has beaten the best boys over here. He is really亿亿壮, especially by overbody in the popular Manchester girl. He and his bride are away on their honeymoon, otherwise, through the manager of the Theater Royal. I should have seen him as a training partner. However, I should probably not be leaving here, as he is due back before our engagement ends. It does make one feel proud to know that our cousin is so highly appreciated and I hope to say more about him later on. Perhaps it might be some interest to the Defender's readers to know a bit about the typical London fogs. They have two or three terrible ones. How well do I remember the first one we saw on arriving over here at this time last year. Space will not allow us to see these fogs are, and yet they give you the thrill of your life when first seeing and being in one or two. Now, when we start in the early evening of one day and last perhaps for two days. In the meantime it is so very dark with the thick fog that it is impossible to block a person even passing by you on the streets. One wonders how traffic is continued without a great loss of lives, but the fog is impossible to block. The right edge and left end with the assistance of all powerful lights possible it enables you to see enough to avoid serious accidents. The fog is possible to threat, and to such an extent that I am surprised that during this time people do not wear gas masks. It is possible that the fog of the "blackbird Revive" not knowing what it was all about, became very alarmed and began sending up judgement day and arrived when these fogs first began, and to be sure it really gives one a great deal of concern at first, would have to see them because, in all likelihood, during this Where to Buy OKeh Race Records time there would be murders, robberies and everything else in the face of the helplessness of this period. And yet in England everything is just as just as it was during the big general strike here some time ago. The foes are merely one of the many interest-building things that happen in England. I was delighted to read in last week's Defender and see the photograph of Louis Drysdale, for he is the man who has said about him. The "Four Harmony Kings" have been studying with him and I, from the very beginning, was so impressed and a letter about him many months ago to Mrs. Maudie Roberts America and had hoped she would put it in her column in the Defender. Now America can read about this very fine teacher of voice whom we are all very proud of in London and I will send her a copy of this book. Pils can easily fill up the column in this paper. A few of his present pupils are Florence Mills, Princess Irene Murecia, George L. Garner, Jr. and others. Louis Drysdale is, as the English say, delectable fine. The "Southern Tebo," who joined the "Blackbird Revue" since they are having a fine success, are sitting on the fine success they are having and they are appearing nightly also at the Chew Victor club, a club members' meeting. This club is located in Bond St., the very exclusive part of London. They have a long contract there and are a big hit. They are C. C. Rosemond, and the well known John C. Payne. John Rinker and Sid Perrin, who joined the Blackbirds a short time ago, will return to America shortly. Miss Ada Wailk, the very talented understudy to Miss Florence Mills, is leaving shortly for America and will spend Christmas in New York City. I am delighted to know of the improvement in my good friend Salem Tutt Whitney's health, and, having simply proses beyond a doubt that he is a good man. William H. Harry received the copy of his splendid book, am sending for more copies, because his poems are very, very dine indeed. Evelyn Dove, the Colored English artist, and her girls are at the Winter Garden in Berlin, Germany, and she is the well known American team, Greenlee and Drapton, who are always a big success and are in a glass by themselves. These boys are very big magnets all over the continent. Sam Wooding and his mislady hand are setting up a display at the popular Florida club, and big the London producer, Charles Gulliver, is still negotiating for their return here in January, at the London Paladium. Mr. "Shrimp" Jones and the Missen Edith and Lena Wilson were dinner guests on November 25, at the flat of Mr. and Mrs. Ian H. Browning. After dinner a few callers dropped in and among them were the popular Mr. and Mrs. Johnne Hudgins. The well known Mrs. Jennie Hastert, but not but, hoping she will soon be up and about again shortly. Johnstone and Layton, after a three weeks' run at the London coliseum and eight weeks at the popular Piccadilly club, have left for Scotland a week are at the Pavilion Glasgow. Will Garland and his revue are returning to London for the holidays and "Hill" and his bunch are always busy. I am very sorry to hear about the closing of "Been Hiver" and "Black Boy" and I often wonder why the Negro can't get another break like "Shuffle Along" and "The Black Prince" there will be another real "Shuffle Along" on Broadway. Florence Mills' revue is proving that even here in England good negro show or revue.

This has been a big week for the old man and though it called for a hard week's work I really enjoyed it. The first big thing to happen my little land of 20 members made its first try at playing out and it happened on Wednesday morning when our beloved president, Mrs. Bethune, who had been in the East for some time, returned to us. The whole student body gave her a celebration long to be remembered and this is where the little band got their onions, the one did fairly well. ETHEL'S HISTORY Eleven years ago, on Halloween night, a girl in boy's clothing and a black music ship in a calender in Philadelphia's Race district. The proprietor had placed his place over to his patrons, and each street in the city had a representative to compete for the prize. A singer from Eagle Ave, had failed to appear and the girl in boy's attire was showed into the street. At St. Louis Blues, and when she finished it was apparent that no other entertainer had a chance. The Eagle Waters, star of "Miss Colleen," now playing at the Princess theater. Since that night in a place which she terms a "joint," she has been singing blues songs as she can. For the beginning with a read show at $3 a week her velocity声 has carried her far. From this job she drifted into cabarets, only to return to the boards and for Dr. James, who besides being her author and author her husband. Dancer her book for vaudeville, and it was on this tour of the south that she first saw the South. Miss Waters says that one must feel the blues, not just sing them. "The blues are our own," she says, "and they originated not from religious hymns as many people think, but from the real life of depression born with the darky. Any religious Negro can sing a spiritual, but it takes a good one to sing blues." PART I—PAGE 7 NT The Masquerader By SALEM TUTT WHITNEY Ho, Santa Claus! you sly old rogue! You fat and foolish rover! Albeit you are quite the vogue. You're working under cover. You're known as Santa, Nick and Kris. For you are a world-wide buffer. But what I know you as is this— an artful round buffer. No "hold-up" man of bandit times Did stumps by half so shocking? As these, your Merry Xmas crimes That till the young folks' stockings. Right hold you in are in bread daylight. On every street and corner Your henchmen work with naught of fright. "Hands up!" and Paw's a goner. No need for him to make outery, Or ask police protection. For folks just laugh and hurry by To make street car connection. In a store poor Paw is dragged, And there his pockets rifted; "The seen that he is safely gagged And every protest stifled. Some sympathetic one may say, With your old guy, sir? As Paw drusx on his home-ward way, Much poorer and much wiser. But when dear Christmas morn arrives, There he is no more upbringing; The joy you bring the kiddies lives, Amends your masquerading. PARIS GRAZES RACE MUSIGIANS AND ACTORS Paris - The French cruiser for shows with face entertainers is unabated. Rose shining is still considered very chic in cabaret and the band. The French cruiser is more than even.

At the Poles Bergere, Josephine Baker, the dancer, continues the brightest of all the stars. The Poles contract that will keep her at that theater until the spring of 1923. Meanwhile she has opened a night club of her own, where the clientele is drawn to her performances in Paris.

PART I—PAGE 9 Walker-Flowers Return Bout Here MULLEN TO PROMOTE MATCH UNDER NEW SYSTEM; 2 JUDGES AND REFEREE TO DECIDE WINNER PART 1—PAGE 10 One of the state athletic commission's referees pulled another stunt last week on the West side which was a corker. During a furious lot of batting at the end of the bell neither fighter heard the ball. The two boys batted on as the crowd yelled. They were finally parled. Then the referee went over to one of the boys, who was the victim. It was a joke. Both boys were white, but nevertheless the correct procedure inasmuch as neither of the two boys was sent to the fighter to his corner, proceed to first one fighter's corner and then the other to see if they could go on to the fight. Had the two boys gone next round, the procedure would have been to step over to the corner and count that fighter out. The next Jan. 1st were to be picked from the list of incompetent referees, the boxing is doomed. Jack Kearns, manager of Mickey Walker, blew into Chicago last week, stayed over a few hours and then blew out, headed for the golden west, where he will spend the holidays with friends. But before Jack Kearns could get away from the hotel, the Defender and Kearns grilled him an interview. He said that in a reasonable length of time Walker would return to Chicago, where his title against any four of the promising contenders, including Tiger Flowers, asked about the press also patches from New York quoting him with saying that Walker wouldn't light the fire. Kearns was offered $20,000 and insisted the statement, but CLEVELAND ELK QUINT WINNERS CLEVELAND ELK QUINT WINNERS Cleveland, Ohio. Dec. 15. The Cleveland Ellis team made five straight home victories last night at the expense of the Buffalo Lincoln, 25 to 21. From start to finish neither team had a greater lead than three points. With but one minute to go, the Ellis showed great power in their defense in holding the ball for the closing whistle. The Clevelanders were leading at the half, 19 to 14. The Ellis girls took over the Cubs girls in line style in the preliminary. Practically the subs beat the Lincoln, as they were injected into play after the first ten minutes. Ford助 Anderson's place at forward, while Jones went to the other forward position in place of Johns. Both boys finished the half and also played the entire second half. Due to the fact that Johns and Anderson might be unable to play some time, Manager Willett broke the two sub forwards in to stiff opposition. Vic Harris was the big star, with Willett and Hampton close behind. For Juffaile, Cortell and Coppeler were good.

EVANS Knoxville, Tenn. Dec. 17.—Raymond L. Fowkes, 25, was elected to captain the Knoxville college buildings in 1927 at the annual grid bench here last night. Captain-elect Fowkes, who hails from Leaskville, N. G. plays fullback, and was elected captain in 1928. He thanked the squad and said the southern championship would reign in Knoxville, beginning next. Captain Cowen, for being the most valuable player. Last year he and Captain-elect Fowkes tied for the honors. Numerous speeches were made and plans for the 1927 season were Coach Carl L.

Mosby Big Five Gives Vandals a Drubbing Philadelphia, Dec. 17—With Shields and Ransom on a onewear rampage, the Meshy Big Fire topped the Draft Hall. Drama halt. God weather kept the attendance low at the N. 133th St. academy, but the faithful were rewarded by seeing Philadelphia 'Flashes' original lineup. Haney, Hawkeye, Tackle and Silverwood, Tackle and Silverwood, show greater power than they did under Chick Edwards, now of New York city. Ransom and Shields eight of those's twelve tallies from the font mark. Todd and Knox were strong on the defense for the Vandals, but Todd's inability stop Ransom proved fatal. The vow Bill Howard was in the Vandals' line- stated that his reason for so doing was to get the bout away from New York. With the proposed amendment to the boxing full allowing 15 rounds in the state of Illinois, Kearns believes Chicago would be a line spot for a return because he developed all issues regarding the last fight held here on Dec. 3 in which the title changed hands. He would simply say that Walker was the wivescres around the Loop are of the opinion that the return match will be held, sometime in May and most likely at the White Sox park. He would say that the promoter and it is more than likely that Kearns will put his signature to articles calling for Walker to defend his title against anyighter from Chicago on Kearns returns from the West. By that time it is hoped that the Illinois legislature, which meets next month, will legislate moves to cause the governor to get behind the present state athletic commission and straighten matters out, for at present it seems that "they don't know what Oswald W. Huncke, a line type of business man, was practically forced out of the charmship and the commission, preferring to be on a job rather than run in a shipshod manner. It has been said that Mr. Huncke preferred to run the commission on a strict business basis and when pressure was brought to bear by pollutants we got him.

Kean BUNGEON GREEN CHICAGO DEFENDER SPORTS SUN EPPS CLOSES CAREER WITH NORMAL TEAM C. I. A. A. and Town Mourn Loss Petersburg, Va., Dec. 26—With the passing of Epps and the C. L. A. A., as well as Petersburg, loses two of the best players of all times. Tyres has played full time in every game for four years. He has never been taken out of a game because of injuries or because the other team has played the ball over him at right tackle. A careful perusal of the games played by Petersburg during the past four years will show that the amount of hard work on the right side of the line has been exceedingly small. It was Tyres again who sneared every attempt of the first backpack, which this year. Coupled with an unerring accuracy and swiftness, Tyres is modest and has never caused the team a penalty for holding or roughing the ball, which is years of age and weighs 190 pounds. So much has been said this year about Epps that to recapitulate is all important. He was the quarterback hails from Williamsburg and weighs 150 pounds. He has been a member of the varsity since he was a freshman, the hurder of forward passes and field general he is without a peer. He has made over half the total yardage of the game, hurled no less than seven passes which have culminated in touchdowns to say nothing of the success of the team within scoring territory. He made the lone touchdown during the game and since then has been directly or infinitely responsible for every score made by the Petersburgers. During the game he called 10 yards and threw pass which netted 125 yards. On the defense he is as good as any, rately calm and delirious during contrerevers and enjoys the full confidence and individual devotion of his teammates. A player he is a genius and delirious in respect by every C. I. A. A. player. Epps was awarded the trophy for the most valuable player. In the C. I. A. A. player. Cottman enjoys the reputation of being a professional kick blocker, but he is also a great player in this year, two against St. Paul in 1923 and one against Seminary in 1925. He has alternated between left guard and left tackle. He has 125 tackles. He is 18 feet 9 inches high and weighs 187 pounds. He has been a most valuable man to the team and enjoys being a part of all with whom he has come in contact. Coley, Lacey and Crockett show up well. Coley has been a member of the varsity for two years and has played for Tynes for he is persevered, and is easily the best of the new members of the team. He has figured in almost every game and will come into his own next season. He is a venerable and vicious Tynes will throw most of the responsibility of the right side of the line upon his shoulders. Coley weighs 150 pounds and is unusually fast for a line man. He is the first year on the team and he has shown up well. He plays left tackle or left guard. He is a fast and braining line man. Lacey has shown in his career that he is fast, good at receiving forward passes and not easy to fool. Very few successful end runs have been made around left end with Lacey in the middle. He is fast and relies on pounds. He promises to be a great player in time. Clark University Defeats Morehouse Atlanta, Ga. Dec. 18.—For the first time during their athletics relations, the Clark Panther quintet gave the here this afternoon in a thrilling game, 24 to 12. The work of Captain Johnson, "Midger" Lewis and Johnny Anderson, the coach of Howard Archer was the best that Morheuse could offer, he slashed the nets with several lengthy heaves and bowls, and the team was in double. Both teams were good, mussing the ball and in general team play. The new Morheuse gymnastium was crowded with nearly 600 athletes. Clark (12) Morehouse (12) Dalton P. F. Hoyer Tambers G. T.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER ers R AGO D A Merry A Happy To the readers of and the special writers on the sport pages of the World's Great A Baseball P And in Doing So He Says A Baseball Player Speaks A Baseball Player Speaks Your proposition in asking that such clubs as the Homestead Grays, grown up in the entire Southern league be taken into the organization is a very timely one. It seems as though our club underer would realize that this would mean protection to them as well as the fans. The young ball player has no protective touch, little litter in the think of entering the game. For instance, in the spring of 1841 I was given a trumpet with the Detroit Stars at the time of the time I. T. Blount was owner, Bruce Pettway, manager, and Riggs, captain. I pitched good ball, at least, that's what Pettway and I remained with the club until the middle of July, when I was getting the kind of weather I was used to in the Stars, becoming more effective. I decided that to fool with baseball was only foolery, because I realized that the ball player had no protection. Last year, 1923, I stuck to my belief that it was no good protection. This year, after Manager Stratten and Owner Thomas T. Wilson of the Nashville club had seen me work in —AND PLE Return DEFEND Christmas and New Year Latest Weekly Player Speaks More Than a Mere Mouthful one of two of our college games, they began to try to secure my services. I was still under the impression that the proposition was no good so after school we out I went Cleveland, Ohio to work. While there Mr. Wilson continued to try to secure my services, so on July 15 I came back South and joined his club in the Southern League. He gave me a chance and I made good, and the competition down here is national league, because Birmingham, Memphis, New Orleans and Albany, Ga., all have strong clubs. The Southern league needs a president, the National league, Mr. Buddy might be a business man and banker, but he's not the man for president of the league. The players have had financial troubles because of the lack of proper leadership. All this can be avoided if the right men get behind the ball and put the right players in. In Atlanta, Birmingham and Montgomery, at one time the best baseball towns in the country, the attendance has fallen to almost nonexistent. Atlanta and Montgomery, in asking the fans why the attendance is so poor, they answer that they have a chance to have players and therefore they won't go out, because they think a player should be treated fair and given a chance, they have a chance to win, and therefore Nashville out, Mr. Wilson meets his pay dary. Birmingham turns out, because the men get paid. Memphis turns out—the men get paid—also Chattanooga and New Orleans. I hope that these men who hold the future destiny of the game think and think and think and organize all clubs under one head and give the club owners as well as the players contracts signed in court or before a notary public. If this is done, baseball amusements will be paying proposition all concerned. Very truly yours. IULIAN BILLE. Junior college alumni, Nashville, Tennessee, member Omega Psi Phi fraternity. TALLADEGA HAS 25 OUT FOR CAGE TEAM Talladega, Ala. Dec. 23—Having closed a most successful football season by playing the mighty Tuskegee Tigers to a 27 to 25 score, the Talladega athletes have turned their eyes to the development of a winning basketball team. Over 25 candidates including practically all the members of last year's varsity and a large number of promising new men answered the initial call of Coach Drewry, who along with Manager Shores is arranging a schedule of over 15 games for the coming season. Among the new additions to the squad are Ruben Chick Lewis, guard Cory Cocky, forward Cory Cocky, forward from Morehouse, and Henry Cooper, one of the most valuable men on the variability of 1524. With such a bright outlook the Tornado tautole cannot be overlooked as a possible contender for the conference championship honors. NTY OF THEM COACH LONG NAMES ALL-STAR SOUTHWESTERN FOOTBALL TEAM Marshell, Tex., Dec. 3—For the first time in the history of the Southern athletic conference, Sam Houston won the uninlited championship of Texas. Coach Taylor, former Lincoln star found awaiting him a group of seasoned veterans at the Austin institution and proceeded to mould them into a formidable Asskey, Owens, Harleben, Alexander, Metlock, Davis, Garrett and Lyons had years, but no coach seemed to be able to get the best out of them. However, out of these men, most of them were uninlited. Added by Mohr, formerly of Willeforce, made some of the brightest stars of the southwest. This and a lucky meteor, gave Sam Houston the best eleven in her history and she proceeded to bowl over her opponents in uninlited credit for winning six and games and losing none. Prairie View finished in second by virtue of three victories, one defeat and one tie. Beginning with a 31-0 win and a 6-2 tie, and a 6-2 tie with Paul Quinn, things looked bad for Jim Law, and the wolves and second guessers at Prairie View were clamoring loud for the win, and a 6-2 tie, Law rallied his men to him and routed Bishop 27-0, beat Wiley 3-0 and trampled Texas college, and the grandstand-managers took to cover the road, so they should be safe for another season. Paul Quinn, always a contender in the championship race for the last five years, was wrecked by raids and a coach can lose men like Slaughter, Clemson, Sheppard, Sanders, Webster, Moody, and Bateman and get far in the conference race with the win. Long made a very credible showing with the material at hand. The 6-6 deblank with Prairie View was the first time the Tigers as the Panther-Tiger battle becomes more bitter each year. Bishop was a big disappointment during the past, race—Couch Purdy undertook one of the hardest tasks in his career, a new coach taking the reins of a championship eleven. The former Iowa man deserves at least another year to prove his true metal as few others have done. Collins, former One College All-Western halfback, who gave Bishop the undisputed championship last year, and for some mysterious reason was given the gate. Coach Pierce and Montgomery are to be complimented on their sportsmanship and nerve to play out their schedule. With practically no material, these Atlanta university representatives fought a game at losing fight. Any attempt to pick an all-star team is not easy to lead to endless discussions and arguments, however. It is the of the time, a selection is in order.

By Rogers BABY JOE IS GIVEN LACING BY KID BROWN Gans Knocked Down for Count of Three Los Angeles, Cal. Dec. 16—Harry "Kid" Brown, Philadelphia lightweight who substituted for Russ Whalen in the main event at Jack Doyle's Vernon Collegue last night, added another upset to the lengthy string that has been surprising Los Angeles light fans, by taking a decisive decision over Baby Joe Gans. Brown got off to a flying start in the opening round when he sent over a snappy left hook that put Gans down for a three count. Baby Joe took about three rounds to recover from the effects of that wallop and during that time Brown piled up a four-round margin. Gans decided to mix it in the fifth, but Brown held his own in the mix-ups with the straight-punch flash. Gans Does Better Baby Jody did better in the sixth and seventh, but Brown came back strong in the eighth, which he took to the wimbledon to the wimbledon in the ninth and set out to win by a knockout. Brown was on the receiving end of a lock of lefts and that had him wabble on the bell sounded to end the round. The Philadelphia batter recovered his strength during the one-minute rest in a traded punches even with the second in even-stephen. Referee Harry Lee, who made his first appearance at fernon in about six weeks, awarded the ball to substitute main eventers, especially when they are newcomers from the last. The fans were sent home early to substitute main eventers, especially when they are newcomers from the last. The fans were sent home early to substitute main eventers, especially when they are newcomers from the last. The semiwindum was among the bouts to terminate early, the end coming in the second round, when Sailor Billy Vincent (white) was knocked out by Charley Long. Omaha middleweight. Near the close of the second round, Vincent went down from what appeared to be a low punch and the ball bell rung to end the stamina. Vincent was taken to his corner and examined by Dr. Lloyd Mace, state athletic commission physician, who announced that the sailor had been ordered and ordered the referee to award him the verdict. Mateo Mugeldelino, fasthy Mexican bantam, defeated Joe Cirro in the special event, a six-round. The bout was a speed affair throughout. The bout was a speed affair during the better of most of the flurries. John Patrick Daughery put Jay Tillman to sleep in the first round of the second bout. Both boys were substitutes. Daugherty dropped Tillman and lay down for the full count. The end came after two minutes and 30 seconds. The curtain-raiser also ended in a hurry, with Prentice Stellman being on the propelling end of a knockout and Drew Doe Wren to sleep, after 43 second of mixing in the first round. Kappas Take Lead in Interfrat at Iowa Iowa City, Iowa, Dec. 10—The Kappas took the lead in the Interfraternity basketball season by downing Gage C. Moore, former captain of Estherville high basketball team, has developed an aggressive machine, utilizing a one-man defense for which he is successful by Iowa varsity. So effective was this formation that only a lone tally was made on a field by the opposing Dixon and Comer Cox thrilled the crowd with their flash and elucidation, scoring 14 points for the Kappas. Carl Moore and Muriel Reed deserve much credit for they showed evidence of real class on the basketball floor. Sexton of Hydra high, the first wrestler to win the wrestlethschool record for the 50-yard dash, demonstrated his speed and agility by so closely guarding Hudlin Green, the Alpha ace, that the battles from the middle of the floor, Dupree (half-play) played a great game. Although handicapped by his understory and weight, he was far from the only field goal for the Alphas. Kappa (17) Alpha (6) N.
