Reclaims Standard Life Insurance Co. $75,000,000 MERGER JOINS DEFRAUDED OF MILLION; SUES

```
Washington, D.C. March 25.
The signing of the contract on March 16 by which the National Benefit Life Insurance company of this city took over the business of the Standard Life insurance company stands as another milestone in the road of Race progress and achievement.
In addition it stands as another monument to the business sagacity and foreseeing of that pioneer of insurance men. It is the company which he has given twenty-eight years of uninterrupted service. The National Benefit and the Standard Life are the first two companies of unusual magnitude to provide our people to carry forward this modern business idea to a successful conclusion. The joining of these two companies gives to the Race an institution with $875,000,000 worth of assets. The National Benefit the largest financial institution of our Race.
Has Rapid Growth
The early history of Standard Life is a corporation organized in the state of Georgia, in 1812, is well known to those who have followed the course of its business. Startling from the very bottom it grew to the point where in January, 1925, there was approximately 100,000 of its books, and with assets of nearly $300,000, it represented the largest life insurance company of the Rise doing an exclusive ordinary life business. At this time the business was taken over by the Southern insurance company, a while institution of Nashville, where it was the control of the bur Rise was without a doubt a blow to racial pride.
After a year of operation by the Southern Insurance company the business was sold to a group of white capitalists of Arkansas, who organized the Standard Life of Arkansas exclusively for the purpose of taking on the business of this group that the entire organization passes into the hands of the National Benefit Life Insurance company. During the two years of operation under white management, the main office of the company has always remained in Atlanta, and the branch office of the company and branch office organization has been held practically intact. Uppermost in the minds of those who have remained with the Standard Life, under the leadership of T. J. Ferguson, general manager, was the one thought of holding together and conserving the business until some plan of shipment of the company could be brought back to our group. Associated with him in this program were, Dr. C. C. Cater, medical director; Aaron Day, Jr., director of agencies; Joseph H. B. Brans, supervisor of branch officers; C. E. B. Arnold, assistant secretary; C. M. Carter, statistician, and I. B. Blayton, auditor, the agency managers, field force and home office employees.
Keep Business Going
Much praise is due the field and clerical forces, who kept business moving and who served as in inspiration to the army of policymakers of Standard Life to keep their insurance in force. That their efforts have borne fruit is attested to by the fact that over $5,000,000 of insurance was put on the books during the past year. That $500,000 was returned, to be added to the already huge volume now carried by the National Benefit.
Quoting from a statement by President H. R. Hurtford, when he was congratulated on the successful outing of the plan—"Service to the public was the main motive which prompted the action of the deaf Mr. Hurtford, who took his career with the National Benefit as an angel and received his training in life insurance at the hands of his capable father. In the handling of details attendant upon the closing of the deal, Mr. Hurtford, P. Smith, assistant secretary of the National Benefit, and John I. Pinkett, agency director of their ordinary department.
All are unequal that this present combination could not have become an actuality and it not been for the officials and employees of both companies, who labored zealously for the consummation of this cloak-making transaction. In the initial stages of this matter the National Benefit was materially assisted by Sculp A. Jones, a well-known attorney of Memphis, C. B. King of Memphis, Tennessee, agency director of the southern division of the company.

Dr. John T. Wilson, head of Wilson hospital, 3823 Vernon Ave., accused by Miss Navajo Boozer, 4511 Forrestville Ave., of attacking her Dec. 27, last, in his room on the third floor of the hospital, was indicted last week by the grand jury. At the time of his preliminary hearing before Municipal Judge Theo J. Ehler at the 57th St. court last January, Dr. Wilson denied the girls' charge, branding her a blackmiller. An alibi witnesses denied he was in his room at the time Miss Boozer said he attacked her.
Nationally Known
Dr. Wilson bears a national reputation as a physician and surgeon. He was graduated from Mchary Medical college, Nashville, Tenn., in 1895. His skill as a surgeon became nationally known through difficult operations performed at his private hospital, which he established in Memphis, Tennessee. In Memphis hospital, came to Chicago and purchased the former bearborn hospital at the Vernon Ave. address, which now bears his name. Dr. Wilson declared that in spite of Miles Boozer's charges he will be completely vindicated when he goes to trial in the criminal court because he is a former bearborn. Dr. Wilson, supervisor of the hospital, is standing by him. The physician has retained one of Chicago's best criminal lawyers to defend him.
Order Probe
Miss Hoover, who was a nurse in training at Wilson hospital, is 18 years old. Accompanied by Mrs. K. Thompson, 4511 Fortressville Ave. the girl went to the social service department of the state's attorney's office and told her story to Mrs. Schmidt, an investigator in that department, a four day old son who was held to the grand jury. Last Tuesday, March 8, the girl testified before the grand jury. Several other witnesses had been submitted to appear in her behalf, among whom was Miss Hattie D. Motley, 5222 Prairie Ave. head nurse in the operating room at Wilson hospital and an assistant. Neither Miss Mother nor any of the other witnesses summoned appeared before the investigating body.
A true bill was votal, however, upon Miss Boozer's story alone. She told of going into the physician's room on the morning of the alleged attack to ask him to send him to Clarksville, Miss, had sent to her in his care. Dr. Wilson was in bed, she said. He injured her request, the girl related, and locked the door. Then, she declared, the physician attacked her, forcing her into submission while she fought. When she was released, her room into receiving Miss Motley, the operating room nurse, gave her, and she told Miss Motley that she had been attacked by the physician, she said.
Cheyney, Pa. March 25.—Dr. George Collins, field secretary of the Fellowship of Reconciliation of New York city, addressed the Cheyney state normal school students on the subject, "The improvement of interracial relations that he finds the feeling of bitterness and resentment on the part of our people living in the North greater by far than it is among those living in the South." Dr. Collins said that he was of the opinion that this state of mind was due to their disillusionment, lack of faith and confidence in democracy, as proclaimed in this book by white people. In dealing with the Colored people he said that some of the white people did not always say what they meant, and neither did some of them always mean what they said. Personally, he said that in his own work he was making greater progress in the South than he was in the North, and in the North he was working with and for Colored people.

16th Member of Dixie Mob Is Sentenced
Douglas, Ga., March 25.—The 16th member of a white man that took Dave Wright (white) from the country jail here last Aug. 30, led him to a tree and shot him to death as the glow from the last puff of a cigarette died away, has just been given a term in prison.
Wright was the only person handed in Georgia in 1926.
Fohr men were sentenced Wednesday, one from four to 20 years, and the others fromone to five years. John Strickland, 49, drew the longest sentence. The others were Tilden Smith; 22; Robert Bollard, 22, and D. B. Lott, 15.
Seventeen men were indicted soon after the mob action, Mark Tanner, the last one indicted, has not been arrested. Of the 12 others convicted, two men received life sentences and the others sentences of from four to 20 years.
He was being held for the staging of Mrs. Zolle Bolling, with whom he boarded.

Durham, N.

He left only a brief message to relatives, on a sheet of paper, torn from a small-sized tablet, he wrote: "Please use my sister burry me, she will be happy."

TAKE STATE FUND AWAY FROM WILBERFORCE TRUSTEES; GIVE IT OVER TO A CONTROL BOARD
Columbus, Ohio, March 25.—The Ohio legislature has not enough confidence in the men at the head of Wilberforce university to trust them with the funds which the state appropriates for the school, and the state monies this year will be placed in the hands of a control board appointed by the state. That is the import of the message that was given to the trustees of the school last week by Chairman R. D. Williamson of the house finance committee. His decision came as the cloak to a series of state and private investigations into the management of the Wilberforce. Hereafter, it has been decided, all expatriates must be checked and apportioned in the work of an institution after their authorization by the board of trustees and the superintendent.

the trustees objected to the air appointment, claiming that the board of control was overriding the sovereign rights of the trustees of Wilberforce.
"I am surprised at your attitude in this matter," reported Williamson. "If you gentlemen want a hearing in your institution after their authorization by the board of trustees and the superintendent, unless you can convince them
Protest Decision

Bunny, superintendent of the normal and industrial department of the university, and the director hearing and presided the collect of Chairman William, "It has come to my attention," said William, "That there are certain irregularities at Willeborce. Our business is to appropriate money. The state auditor tells us that there have been certain irregularities in the conduct of business at Willeborce so reported to the board of control.
State Conditions
"The appropriation which has been approved tonight by the finance committee will be granted on conditions that the executive clerk of the institution approve all expenditures and supervise them, have authorized them, and can then have been handling your business, in a proper manner you would be in
the position you find yourself in today."
The trustees objected to the arrangement, claiming that the board of control was overriding the sovereign rights of the trustees of Willerforce.
"I am surprised at your attitude in what matter" returned Williamite. "If you can arrange want a hearing then I can arrange it with the state auditor and attorne, general. However, unless you an convince them otherwise, the ruling of the board will stand."

Swissville, Pa., March 25—Tuesday afternoon while her husband was away at work and she was alone in her home three white men robbed Mrs. Mary Daniels of $400 which she lead in the house. Mrs. Daniels told police that one of the men came into the house representing the robber and minutes later was other men came in and attacked her.
When Mr. Daniels came home from work Tuesday evening at 5:50 he found his wife bound to a chair with a cloatline and her month ill fitted with a pillow case. After he released her she could work her jaws, they having become paralyzed from being held open so long.
Police have been making a search for the bandits.
Woman Says Whites Got Oil Revenue
Muskogee, Okla., March 25.
—One of the most sensational suits ever contested in this state will take place during the first week in April when the case of Sally White vs. Tom Payne and the McCulloch Oil company, filed in February, is called for hearing in the federal court of Muskogee.
More than a million dollars are involved, and the ownership of one of the most famous oil estates in the country will be determined.
Mrs. Sally White, formerly Mrs. Sally Scott, new Garrett, a Creek freeman, who now makes her home in Detroit, Mich., through her attorneys Thomas H. Owens, William H. Twine, Chauncey D. Twine, and K. Emmett Stewart, of our Race, is seeking the return of the estate to her, with a complete accounting of all transactions covering the discovery of oil and its marketing. The property in question, a tract of land in Omaha County known as Holly Ugea, was acquired in 1909 lands of oil daily, deriving an income of several hundred thousands of dollars each year.
Claim Fraud
According to facts brought forth in the statement filed by Mrs. White's attorneys, the deed now in the hands of operators of the estate was procured fraudulently and that it was never signed by her伯伯. benyears declare that it will prove to be not even in the state at the time the deed to the property was executed, but was in Washington, in government service. One of the other alleged signers of the papers, declares Mrs. White, could not even read or write in 1910, when the transaction was carried out in court here. Tom Payne, one of the defendants, has died. He was found dead in his room a few days after Mrs. White's suit was placed on record. While the other defendants have not answered the charges as set forth by Mrs. White, they insisted on grounds of insufficient evidence to prove fraud. This motion, it is expected, will be heard also on April 4.
Never Signed Papers
The facts set forth by Mrs. White in her suit are this: she never signed the papers by which the property was conveyed to the present operators; her signature was forged and that all operations were by fraud. Records disclose that she had sold and sale of oil and other products of the land was sold last year to the McCulloch people by Jolly and Ogg for the sum of $600,000. The last named couple have not been mentioned in the suit. Representing the defendants are West, Gloss, Hudson and Jackson Tullah. This is considered the strongest argument of legal talent ever assembled in this city and shows the importance of the case. If Mrs. White wins her contention, she
will become one of America's richest women. The property was tapped early last year and has been donated during the last half of the decade in revival. Today the wells are flowing freely as they did on the first day of the strike, and according to experts, are far from being exhausted. Unusual interest is being shown in this suit by operators throughout the state, because they must have known that the trekkers who have been dispassed of their oil properties through various methods. The Oklahoma "treeks" derived their name from "Creek Indians" by whom they were held as slaves and from whom they received labor from such as a settler. Under the laws of Norwegia, they are classified as Norwegians.
D. C. Board Denies It
Demoted School Teacher
Washington, March 25.—The board of education and Garnett-C. Wilkinson, assistant superintendent, denied on March 17, through Corporation Counsel Francis Coulter, in Dorothy K. Bannall's high school, had been unlawfully discriminated against. The teacher filed a petition for a writ of mandamus in Cirl alt court, and charged that her transfer from the Shaw Junior high school to Randall was a demotion. Wilkinson deny that she was demoted, stating that she asked to be transferred, and that her eligibility for the senior high schools expired more than four years ago.

COFFEYVILLE MOB ROUTED BY RIFLE FIRE; WHITES SLINK AWAY TO BURY THEIR DEAD
Coffeyville, Kans., March 25.—(Special)—With 10 white men killed, 13 men and women confined in local hospitals with gunshot wounds and three cavalry units of the Kansas State national guard patrolling the streets. Coffeyville has settled down after two days of bitter race riots. Hostilities ceased with the arrival of the state militia, when the mob of angry whites realized after 10 of their number had been shot down and hundreds of others fired on, that the man whom they sought to lynch for having attacked Julia Mooney and Margaret Akers, white high school girls, was innocent.
Free Suspects
Curtis Smith, a well known barber, Vanges Harden, 20 years of age, and his brother, Carth, 22 years old, were released from jail after the girls told police they could not identify any of the trio as their attackers. Friday's race riot was only one of the many "illly white" demonstrations held in this section of the country. The members of the race were led by World war vets who put their overseas knowledge to good
Citizens Warned
Having been warned early in the day that the whites planned to march on them, thousands of public spitched citizens of our race mobilized under the direction of ex-servicemen as a mason in a Baptist church citizens were quickly taught the overseers; art of fighting. Equipped with army rifles, tear gas bombs, pistols, butcher knives, bayonets, axes and sticks, the mob left the church in company formation. Each company divided into platoons, headed by a captain with four lieutenants and sergeants as his assistants. Small trenches were dug at the entrance of the "colored" section.
Youths Lead Mob
Frustrated in an attempt to take the city jail where the three men were held as suspects in connection with the attack on the girls, a mob led by white high school youths and composed of city officials and women numbering more than 1,500 started a march toward the section of the city largely inhabited by members of our force.
A funillade of shots was fired and the whites scattered for shelter. A year-old printer Waddle (white) and a year-old foundry foreman, said to be leaders of the mob, were shot. Their condition is said to be serious.
The mob then returned to the jail and made a second attempt to storm it, but were met as they eight deputy night sticks, who told them the prisoners had been sent away in a fire truck answering a false alarm.
Dissatisfied with the deputy's remarks they made a third attempt to storm the jail, but driven back by discharge of tear gas from the guards, while firemen poured steady streams of water on them.
Order School Not to Draw "Color Line"
Trenton, N. J., March 25.—In the Supreme court here on March 17 Justice Lloyd signed an order directing the board of education of Berkeley township to admit Frank T. Halson to the Toms River Public school, or show cause April 6 for refusing to do so. In the same time State Senator Alexander Shimson, Democrat of Hudson county, introduced a bill making it a mideemanor to segregate children "by reason of race, color or religion." These steps came as aftermath to the 25 children from the Toms River school building and their assignment to a "segregated" school established in a church for our group in Hudshick. Meantime the school board has applied to the county court for an injunction ordering parents to show cause under the compulsory education law to send their children to the segregated school. Hearing was set for March 23.

MALONES IN NEW MOVE TO SETTLE CASE
Continue Hearing for Another Month
St. Louis, Mo., March 25.—Poro college receivership suit, set for a hearing last Monday in the circuit court to decide whether Aaron Malone should have one-half of his wife's $2,000,000 estate. was continued until April 11 upon an agreement of the attorneys who represent both sides.
Several hours prior to the time for court, to convene citizens of all classes had assembled at the old courthouse. The room in which the trial was to take place was so packed that it was difficult for the court found it was a difficulty for them to even make their way through the corridors, because of the congested crowd. The anxious spectators, however, waited patiently until court was called in. The counsel told the court that to go to trial at the appointed time might embarrass everybody, as "there was some likelihood that the matter might be adjusted" out of court.
N. Congressman Cleveland A. Malone is one of Mrs. Malone's counsel. It is understood that he is to conduct the trial if the case is given a court hearing.
LOS ANGELES LAWYER IS STRICKEN IN COURT
Lexington, Ky. March 25—John D. Eisenbock, white, was held for the grand jury on March 18 in $2,000 bail on a charge of killing James Wilson. He went to Wilson's home to collect it. The Citizens' league promptly took action, employing R. W. Keenon (white), to aid in the prosecution. This is the second instance here in which a white attorney has been prosecuted. The judge will add prosecution of a white man. Eisenbock claims self-defense.
MAIL CAR BURNS
Darlington, S. C., March 25.—A small car on the Charleston and Atlanta train No. 36 containing a number of sacks of paper and other matter, was destroyed by fire while en route to this city recently. A shipment of The Chicago Defender sent to the city was lost in the blaze, according to information sent to postoffice officials.

about its merits.

TELLS OF HER EXPERIENCE
| “I hadn't felt just exactly right for a long time,”
‘says Mrs, Flora Johnson, of 206 Ave. D, West, Birming-
ham, Ala, “I had that weak, tired-out feeling and was
losing weight.
“I heard about St. Joseph’s G. F. P. so much from

see what it would do for me.
“T felt better before I finished the first bottle, so
just kept right on until I had used several bottles. Then
I was a new woman.. I am strong and well now and

WHITE DIXIE LEADER RAPS INTOLERANCE
"South Must Reform," Says Atlantan
Jacksonville, Fla., March 25—Dr. W. W. Alexander (white) of Atlantic Ga., noted interracial committee worker and the former Joyce award, recently spoke at the Foster Memorial church, located at Laura and Monroe St., before a packed audience of white southerners on the race.
The interracial worker said that the white man knows nothing of the cultural side and the upper and cultured classes of both races are far apart and the contact between the races is with the lower and more jealous members of both races and therein lay the root of all present racial discord.
He rapped the white press hard when he said that the distinguished in publishing the crimes of the Race in embittering headlines, but when invited to publish the deeds of accomplishment and achievement
"The speaker deplored the many Inchings in the South and told his audience that they did not lynch the man accused of the crime," but that the southerners lynched our men for talking back to them and any other reason that suited their fancy. The South must retaliate. "The Negro did not make the laws and can't even enforce them and he knows that he can't get anything like justice in a court," the speaker said.
"The Alexander also spoke at the Edwards Waters college to the student body.
Knowing the Charleston
Saves Explorer's Life
Sydney, Australia, March 25—Palmer Kent (white), Australian man who was walking tour on Epi Island, in the New Hebridean group of islands, declared that his knowledge of the Cairngorms was surrounded by a group of head-hunting cannibals who were preparing to attack him. The poser danced the Charleston. The natives quickly caught the step and were charmed by it. They followed his movements eagerly, and when he shown them all he knew about the dance, they invaded him with presence rescued him in safety to the coast. Many Australian are of the opinion among the Aboriginal had its origin dance in the hinterland.
Jacksonville, Fla. March 25- Nathan Lane, 25. of 1007 W. Duval St. Jacksonville, Fla. but last week he became an ardent devotee of "lady luck" when he found a brand new $200 bill on the back of his wallet. Lane was arrested last week when he attempted to deposit $200 in the postal savings bank out of the $200 bill. In possession of the unusual bill, he was released with the warning to return it and offered for the tender of the bill or for the whole five hundred.
PROMINENT TEACHER DIES
Los Angeles, Cal., March 25—Miss Mary L. Hubbard, prominent city school teacher, died at her home at 1520 E. 10th St., Monday. March 14. She was formerly of Hanculah, Mo., where she had taught at the University of Chicago. Richard Hubbard of Chicago, came here to attend the funeral, which was held last Thursday.
LOOK AT CHILD'S TONGUE IF SICK, CROSS, FEVERISH
Hurry, Mother! Remove poisons from little stomach, liver, bowels
Give "California Fig Syrup" at once if bilions or constipated
Look at the tongue, mother! It coated, it is a sure sign that your little one's stomach, liver and bowels are gentle, thorough cleansing at once. When peevish, cross, listless, pale, don't sleep, doesn't eat or act naturally, breath bad; has stomachache, sore throat, diarrhea, full of cold, give a teaspoonful of "California" Fig soup, doesn't eat, foul, constipated waste, undigested food and sour bile gently moves out of the little bowels without gripping, and you have, a well, playful child. You needn't coax sick children to take this harmless, "fruity laxative"; they love its delicious taste, and it is hard to swallow. Ask your druggist for a bottle of "California" Fig Syrup, which has directions for babies, children of all ages, and adults in the bottle. Beware of counterfeits sold here. To be sure you get the genuine, ask to see that it is made from real pans. Retuisse any other kind with contempt.

This is one of the sad sides of what some call progress on the South side.

The photo shows hundreds of men employed excavating and laying the foundation for this beautiful structure. It shows also hundreds of men standing idly by as the work progresses." The employed ones, as you see, are all white. The unemployed are of our Race. Despite the fact that the laborers of our Race carry union cards in their pockets, they have been forced to stand idly by and watch foreigners do the work. The least the backers of this project can do if they expect co-operation is to employ some of these men.

CAN'T BAR INDIANS AS AN ALIEN FOLK
Philadelphia, March 25—For the American Indian no boundary line exists, according to a decision handed down on March 11 by Federal Judge John Paul Disloe, member of an Inquilino tribe, whom the United States sought to exclude from crossing the Canadian border without proper immigration. Judge Dickinson ruled that Indians are not included among the members of allen nations whose admission to the country is controlled by the United States. Disloe, structural iron worker, was deported to Canada last March and intended to forget the incident. But the Six Nations, the confederation of Indian tribes in America, looked upon the action of the United States authorities as a breach of faith under the Jay treaty, and induced Disloe to come back to the United States so that a test case could be made.

Her Worst W for a Dime!
A Body Sweetness that Even Perspiration Can't Spoil
The trick laxatives in the world can't tempt people who understand the properties of cascara. A hand-drawn water droplet will purse the bowels, but a little natural cascara purifies the system clear through. Cleanses even the pores of your skin. Humbles perspiration as inoffensive as so much dew!
Your grandparents took "sails," a hand-drawn water droplet membrane with the waste. Mineral oils are better, but they have the potential to off through the pores, but when you cancarse the system, you get an all-muscular action of the bowels.
Don't get in the habit of taking your clothes for autointoxication. If you have the habit stop it. A candy cascaret is a candy that cascars; children love them and the more they eat, the more comfortable and what a comfort to know you are in that clean, wholesome, and sweet seed of doctornuts, even in warmest weather. Try a cascaret that is not too sweet for you.

Testimonial to Biggs
Never before in the history of race musical circles has such a tribute been paid to one for aggressiveness, honesty and achievement as just a joke. The local musical circle of "colleagues" local No. 206, Chicago, last Wednesday. The beautiful assembly room of the local was gorgeously decorated. Tears came to the eyes of the honest Bigness when presents and other tokens of loyalty were handed him by his 100 per cent admirers that complimented his organization. All of the noted contractors and leaders were present to do honour to the popular president. Many of the musicians sent doral tributes to Mr. Hillegs, whom even they admire. They admire him because he does business right with them and on the level of entertaining features that will long live in the minds of those present.
Exponents of Race Music
J. Rosamond Johnson and Taylor Gordon, the renowned vocalist, are way out West in California, singing and playing their own music, the kind of music he is well-accented with open arms by the Nordics in the West. They have been acclaimed wonderful by the western music lovers. They are doing much good for the Race in popularizing our own music. They are following in the footsteps of Roland Hayes, who has done much to put before the world the music of the New England singer. Johnson is an author and composer of renown. He is one of the Race's foremost musicians. He has worked among the old men and women of our group but has created years before he was both. This material Mr. Johnson has revised and rearranged. He has written them down and edited the volume of the New England Conservatory of Music and at one time was conductor of an orchestra for Hammerstein's London Opera house in London, England. He is a great music as well as an expert accompanist.
Taylor Gordon's schooling as a singer of spirituals began when he was a wee toot. It is a natural inherent trait of life that having been known as one of the best singers of our Race. The gentlemen will go down in Race history as master exponents of our own "American spirituals."
Musicians Get Big Pay

Weber of the American Federation of Musicians has finally laid down the scale for musicians who play for the Vitaphone to the career of musicians has been averted by President Weber's new wage scale for the Vitaphone musicians.

Upon a network of overhead wires the wind played a freetiful tone, now rising "vulvamente" to a shrieking "torturismo," then subduing a "militante" into a melancholy cadence, and the wind frosted snow screeched a discontinent obbligate, the incidental music of a winter night's drama.

The thin overcoat he wore furnished small protection from the cold, and he thrived in the shallow pockets, but the cruel wind cut his wrists like handcuffs of frozen steel. An out-of-date silk hat was pulled low and tight upon his head. He was nearly blind, and he happily light as he thought of the good news he had for the Madame. Walking within the shelter of a tall building made him contemptuous of the raging storm; his steps were firm and he was proud distance of time and season.
But the Sigmar had not reckoned on the malignity of King Winter, for as he left the shelter of the building for a furious the queen he encountered with his arm in a furious blast of snow and sleet. The swirl enveloped and almost smothered him. Icy particles cut and stung his face like electric necrosis. The sudden violence of the assault staggered the old man. For a moment he stood wavering upon the edge of the ice-coated curb, then suddenly both feet slipped from his foot and fell upon the pavement. With a shriek of malicious triumph the wind selzed his silk hat, lifted it high in the air, then dashed it fiercely to the frozen street, where it rolled and bounded by a sinuous route into an alley, there to be tightly wedged be-

IN OLD KAYSEE
Kansas City, Mo.—Twas a hard-boiled bunch Monday night that viewed Mae Williams' "Jazland Follies," a group of about 12 common laborers consisting of both nexes that were billed to present to a jingle band. The band was not full any night during the entire week and the applause and laughter came like a mother-in-law's kiss—few, thin and cold. Mae Williams, with all his hooks, teased a few laughs and worked like a war horse. The next to seek the giggles and applause were the Newby brothers and they, too, had reason to be impressed by the column always tries to give the performer the best of the deal in every review, always trying to refrain, from saying anything detrimental to the success of or company he was in the performance, so we feel sate in saying that this company has a chorus that exhibits the most vulgar and indecent motions ever seen on the Lincoln theater stage. Furious comment, therefore, would be useless.
The Gem Theater
The audience enjoyed the Sunday and Monday offering at this theater which presented Huck Jones in "Desert Valley," a combination of western and railroad melodrama. And ouside of the program picture that is turned out for consumption in the usual daily change of program houses, it has action and suspense and is emptily enclosed by a cast that stands in the center. Huck Jones who has the title role, manages to hold the audience every minute that he is on the screen and the supporting cast is most adequate.
The Ehlon Theater
"Blond Men Jailer," featuring Adolph Menjau, is a well made and carefully handled independent production. The story itself is a light comedy with a wealth of funny stuff included between beginning and end, and the play was offered Sunday at this house and created much interest.
We believe, that Kansas City is one

DUD'S DOPE
By S. H. DUDLEY
Pictures, pictures, Race pictures. I am more convinced now than ever that Race pictures are an absolute joy for you who have been reading my articles regarding Race pictures will say, "Old, old Dud is just playing his scheme to put over Race pictures." You will have to be shown and convinced. Here we go. To begin with, all of the big pictures, I mean white, that are produced by all of the biggest film corporations in the U. S. A., 2522 are true fact that big concedes have fallen flat in the Race剧院. Don't kid yourself, Mr. Manager, you know I speak the truth when I say no concedes. You, you and you, you, Mr. and Mrs. Audience, you know you don't like them. So you will have to agree that a good grumbled well titled and well presented is what you want. So you can see the necessity for Race pictures. Why not demand them, why not invest in them, why not position to say, but with your help we can and will solve the problem.
Mr. Manager, if you cannot book some real Race pictures your theater will not pay you the profit on your tickets, but you can pay to the Race Investor and Race prider and employee. It is your duty to open the doors that have for years been closed to the Race Investor and Race prider, and hold the key to the door. I may never live to see the door open, but regardless it must be done. And I will never live to see the door open, and that Uncle Dulc gave us this idea for our people to share in a profit-sharing stable investment in which he had spent years of careful study to produce pictures. At some future date, a actor and graduates of our schools in all walks of life.
'We can do all of these things mentioned if we will just co-operate. So we can do pictures. At some future date I am going to try and make a Race picture day by playing a Race picture in every theater in Washington on Saturday. We have to wait some time, as we have not the class of pictures that would applent to all of our theaters here, but the time will come, so boost and Race pictures in Race theaters.
Now that it's our mind and my heart, I'm entertaining Miller and Lytes and a few of the ladies and gentlemen of their company at my home while they were playing the Poll theater of this city, on an afternoon. I have having a delightful time when a ruftanned in just about 2 n.m. Saw all the curs waiting to take the girls back to their hotels. I asked him to leave, then he got up and so to get even he called up No. 2 police station and informed them that there were white people and Race people at my home lighting and a lot of other people. To my surprise the door bell rang for 4 a.m. The lieutenant and half a dozen officers entered, while the other officers were waiting outside. When the lieutenant entered the parade, the police entered the luncheon. He smiled and said, "Dudley, we heard there was a big light here, but we are just in time for lunch, and hugged and walked out, and then on from then until 5:30 a.m.
I never met a fine bunch of people. Oh, well, class will tell. Miller and I went to a funeral, and I felt a wonderful enjoyable success, as it was given in their honor. I might say that the majority of this same party was being entertained at a funeral. There were three two young cemeteries were, and immediately left and came to my home so fast and thick until I was forced to look the door. So these two geniuses drew cards at the剧院, but turn them away at banquets.

tween a garbage can and the brick wall, a battered roll of better dayz. Like the Signor, it was a "than-been warm retreat in a poochoom to report his 'rounds' at the corner patrol box, noticed the figure of the Signor upon the door of the officer's first thought; then he noticed the Light shimmering upon the white hair of the old man and hurried to his assistance. The fall. The policeman lifted him carefully to his feet and after a few moments he was able to stand unadied. Signor walked the short distance to his home. At the door they wished each other a cheerful good-night. A shaft of yellow light lanced the elbow of the little street as the door was closed. He heard the low tremolo of a woman's voice. For a moment the figure of the Signor was silhouetted upon the door; was closed. Angry at being robbed of its victim, the wind hurried itself against the door and shook the windows in their casements in a final attack upon the Signor's stronghold.
The Madame and he kissed her upon her forehead. These two had never met. The Madame clined in popularity and subsequent decrease in good fortune had only made them cling more closely one to the other.
"Where is your hat, dear?" asked the Madame. Then she noticed the snow caked upon his coat and troubled him upon the street. Are you hurt?" She question anxiously.
"No, no!" he hastened to assure her. "I slipped on the ice and fell—jawed, a bit—nothing to worry about, dearest. Consoled by his assurances, she proceeded to remove his coat. "I know you are cold" she said; "here are snow-covered rocks before the fire and warm your feet." There they sat, side by side, and gazed at the fire in the glowing grate. Neither the man nor the woman no longer had a lamp, nor that its flame was gradually lessening, until, after a few spasmatic jumps. It sputtered and ceased the grate cast strange and grotesque figures upon the walls of the one room that was now the only home of the one-famous singers. Conscious only of each other's presence, while the scenes of their early career passed in rapid kaleidoscopic view before their unseen eyes. The first they had met. It was while they were abroad. The Madame, yet in her teens, had finished her studies with a soprano singer. Possessing a remarkable voice and a magnetic per-
sonality, her success was instantiated in her barbionte. He met the Madame at her debut. Their love was mutual, their courtship brief. They soon met in a rope, and everywhere they were in great demand. They sang before royalty and the crowned heads showcased their medals of honor upon their breasts. America was captivated by their wonderful slimness. In the stream, Ah, those were happy years—thoughtless years! They gratified every wish that could be given to friends, honor and popularity, why think of the future? Some day we will lay aside something for a rainy day, my thought; but not now, not now.
So the years few by—precious years, wasted years. Then—then the years selzed by a serious throat infection that refused to yield to the treatment of the most renowned specialist. Engagements not to be canceled, not to be consulted, not consulted many physicians. The cost money—a great deal of money. Now it was all going out and not nothing gone. They pawned their jewels and medals. At last they were compelled to collect loans from their friends. It was then that they made a star, and they vanished at the advent of their adversity. The Sigmar secured a few engagements, a very few; the public would not accept the Sigmar without the hope springs eternal in the human breast. The Sigmar never ceased to hope for Madame's recovery, to signage years, trying years. Then a specialist said Madame could sing again. The Sigmar was happy. Again the Sigmar was busy, and surging at the box/office windows. Again they would live those golden years—years of case and luxury—only this time they would lay the roof for the rainy day—the unexplened.
But soon they were to learn of the lackness of the public. Their past triumphs had become a memory, and they were no longer popular. They were no longer in demand. After much effort they obtained an engagement. It was after they had heard themselves referred to as "has-beens." The remark had been carelessly made by a bystander as the Signor was pheling the Madame in a room where he had spoken if the speaker had struck him a blow in his face. He hoped the Madame had not heard. "Has-beens!" Impossible. "Has-beens!" Improved. Better. In He he told himself. "Has-beens." Has-beens." The words burned themselves upon his subconscious brain until the beat of the streets echoed the words "Has-beens!" "Has-beens!" When they reached their room the little clock on the mantle took up the refrain: "Has-beens!" has-beens; tick-tock "has-beens."
The years passed slowly—lean years, weary years. They were forced to teach voice culture to obtain a living. In those fat years—deliberately economic, low, they would never live within their income. They were always in debt, and only an occasional concert in one of the city churches kept them from dire want. One day as the Signer was leaving the office of an entertainment bureau the heard a gentleman吵了 another

"Who is the old man who just passed out the door?" He knew that he had prompted the question. On the pain he had experienced the session of him in their full sign-cancel "Yes," he murmured, "I am an old man; how strange I! never knew the Madame, to others she must be an old woman; but never old to me—never! The love in my heart will always keep her young to the al-awam." Another night, even an this night they had sat side by side, hand in hand, when the Madame said: "Signe, do you know what we are going to be been?" "Don't, dear, it hurts!" the Signer cried. Madame sighed and continued "We were so thoughtless you and I. We never thought that our roxy dreams could fade. Now—now we are old; unequal to the struggle for our love." Ing. the Old Folks' home—or the poor—poor "Hush!" the Signer admonished, "Hush! the fast the last! Better death than that!"
Then it was when they began to save. They who had squandered a fortune in those plenteous years now would have been in days that it would take them to accumulate the fee that would admit them to the Home for the Aged and allow them the privileges of ending the deceased—declining years—in an institution.
An unconscious sight from the Madame Sainte Signor from his dreams of the past. Tenderly he loved it upon his breast, "It's all right, honey," he murmured. "The benefit tonight raised the required amount. Tomorrow we will go." His smile lapsed upon his emotion as he continued: "It won't matter much so long as we go together."
"Always together," she whispered. It was autumn. The leaves futtered earthward in golden showers, carpeting the lawn of the Old Folks' home with variegated hues of red, yellow and gold. The meadows had a warm, sunny summer sun. A robin perched upon a limb looked fingerly toward the early season's nest, then flea away with its head pointed Southward, the sun shining through the winter's store, buzzed hurriedly about in search of such flowers as were yet blooming. A thin haze filled the atmosphere and one saw the sun shining through the glass. Where was a mysteries stillness. Summer was dying.
On a bench beneath a maple tree sat the Madame and the Siguror, their awnished. Long and silent they grazed at the scene of nature's dissolution.
"It has been a long way," said the Siguror. "Her love, has brightened the journey"; the Madame whispered. Gallantly he kissed her wrinkled hand. For a while there was silence and silence; the Madame hand he kissed and brushed back the altered locks from his forehead. For a while she looked into his eyes as if she would read his innermost thoughts to go upon a long journey and wished to fix the object of her affection indefinitely upon her memory.
"Signor," she breathed, "do you love me?"
"Next to God," he answered reverently.
A happy smile erased the wrinkles from her face. "Love in the only place," she said. "It keeps the heart young, even though the body grows old. It has kept us from becoming 'has-beens' to sleep." Again she grasped into his eye, then said, so softly he could scarcely hear: "Take me in your arms, dear. I think I will go—to sleep." The Signor looked upon that quiet, peaceful face, and he knew. Slowly and reverently he bent his head and lifted his lips to the furrowed brow. "Dear Jesus, I, too, am ready. Allow me to be together." He murmured. And with a peaceful sigh he, too, fell asleep.

Dallas, Tex—Dear Dave: By the time this is published Mabel Whit- lton will be sitting, writing, and of the Princesses (whrite, W. Tex. "Miss New York," W. Tuesday, and Wednesday. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, you will be presented to the patrons of the Galley theater, a Race show, same burg. I have been sitting here with pen in hand just about an hour, trying you in this letter, but I find nothing that would interest you in this town, and I don't think any of the other members have found anything to talk about. I do know that if you are not very careful about where you go and who you go with, you will find yourself in trouble. You can and in some cities as many vulgares as you will working people, and it is up to n. performer being a stranger in whatever city you are in away from these people as possible.
I can remember meeting a gentleman, he said he was in a room with a friend to all performers, because he was one himself. Before we started our week's engagement he had all of us in the room, we were stopping searching everybody's for whiskies as if we were travelling bootleggers. Why the girls would listen to his talk about being a big butter and egg nymph. You will always find the usual stage door awaits awaiting the arrival of the show.
They will spot out the ones that they think are lemons. Then if what they think are lemons prove to be lemons, they will take out on the first one, poke or female, that will follow them to some joint where you can get anything from shoe polish on up. And the felled wearing blue cactus and corn stalks will fall down before they will walk in and give you an invitation to meet the judge in the morning. Men and women traveling with any animal will be in pickin' their associates. Let's have our fun among ourselves. Zellar Crawford, 3621 N. Central Ave. Bail, Tex., would like to know the whereabouts of George Williams, "The Great head of was in Chicago."

AMON'S PEN
Was very sorry to learn that Philip Jilas died this week in New York city. The whole company mourns his death. Ted McDonald's death. Ted was a very dear friend of mine and the profession has lost one of his best singers. Well, the "Club Alabam" revive is holding the boards at the Lafayette theater. New York city, to the business, Jimille Marshall opens in Baltimore. Marile Lucus is rehearsing the show for him. She was also rehearsing the chorus for Ed Daley last week. Miss Marile Lucus is a couple of more people I know but can't mention their names just yet are going to open a first-class night club on Lenox Ave. in about three months. The place is remodeled and decorated. Wortmann are on the job now. These two most popular ladies and the other two who are also popular and well known will bring in the money.
Woll. 4-11-44 company goes into Minor's opera theater, Newark, N. York. I went to the week of March 25 at the Lafayette theater, New York City, a return date, in five weeks doing 4-11-44 in two shows, two shows a day, at advance prices. We turned them away the last time there and hope to break our last recurrence. We see, Say, Dave, I come pretty nearly "checking out" for keeps. Last week while playing the Casino in Brooklyn, it didn't been for the quick work of my doctor. I would have swam that "deepest river" and broken the record for the quick work of a quitter and a glutton for punishment. I won the battle. So that's that, and I am still here to worry you, the dear old public with me "pen."
We will split our summer run between Walton's Casino theater, Boston, Maine and the Columbia theater, New York City. So whatever and everybody success, I will "tune off" from station 4-11-44, Patterson, N. J. "I put the pal, Amon Davis."

Jimmie, who is stage manager, and one of the principal comedians had a big time in the city. Sorry you did not see it. The comedy thing cut and dry old top. Received a letter from my old side kick Paul Shelda. He will be the big hat man on the Bruce greater shows this season. Jack Cullen writes that he has placed his show on the Krause greater show opening in Augusta, Ga. March 17, so you can see he is on his way big week in Chelsea and there were some big ones here. Mary Stafford and her band were at the Kelgis Hall on Monday night while Belton's orchestra was at the Palms on the same day. Both have good orchestra. Wednesday night Eagle Eye Shelda and his band were at the Palms. I did not get to hear this band as I was busy that night at one of those over the curbs and I mean they will not quit.

President Lewis and Dr. Jones Strut Their Onions to Open S.A.A.Ball Season
Atlanta, Ga., March 19. — The Southeastern Athletic association baseball season was opened today with all the glamor of a big league opening when Dr. John H. Lewis, president and premier supporter of athletics at Morris Brown, hurried the first ball of the season to Dr. Jones, arch supporter of athletics at Morehouse. Dr. Lewis took his place on the mound, dotted his hat and looked down the alley for his signal from the catcher.
After getting his signal he slowly wound up and was about to deliver the pitch. He confident batter, who had returned the saturation, he decided he had no wound up enough; so he added speed to his pitching activities and let go of his helmet. Dr. Jones stood stature-like, waiting. On the ball sped, straight toward the plate. Dr. Jones swung his bat lock and with a sweeping motion decided to wait. It was a stir.
President Lewis was happy he had started his boys toward victory by hitting him but his joy was short-lived. For Morhouse soon poured upon the offerings of Sprillill and got seven runs, but he made it so hard for Dr. Lewis that he went out in center field and got on the fence; also got on Clark and Chase. Just an everything seemed lost, the Whitewinds with that fighting characteristic of the Whitewinds teams, and the Whitewinds turned into victory. The Whitewinds had won a great fight and the first leg on the S. E. A. A. championship, and in vain to find editor, Dr. Jones after the fight, editor, had in hurry to his office to change the headline on his paper, white read: "Morhouse downs Morrison." Morris Brown turns defeat into victory by a score of 10 to 8.

SEASON
Detroit Stars at Chicago for 5-Game Series; Cubans in South; St. Louis at K. C.
The directors of the National league ended a four-day livestream session at the Pine St. Y. M. C. A. in St. Louis late Saturday night and used from making some trades they finished the schedule making of the first half.
The Detroit Stars, minus Riggins, who managed the club last year and who goes to the new Cleveland club for Harding and Mitchell, shortstop and pitcher, and minus the services of Larry Brown, catcher, who was in the league in 1827 where he came in 1827 when the Tennessee club dropped out of the big-time circuit, will come to Chicago to open the season against the American League to the report sent out from Detroit to the report ago that Delosso was manager of the club, so far the Detroit club in without a pilot, Nelson Johnson, who wrote that Owner Steve Pierce of Detroit and his secretary, Derrick, had been in Chicago and had deliculed with him to take charge of the Minor City nine, but only finite terms could be agreed upon.
The American Giants will start training as soon as the weather will permit, which is to say, perhaps, next week. They will have teams that will be near April 1. Should the weather break the world champions will go into action with the Giants, and again on April 16 to sit themselves for the coming surrenous league season. The team's salary limits will hold the club's 15 players will work some sort of a hardship on most owners. It was thought that a better move would have been to hire a new coach, but the manager of the club would not have been included, but the eastern magnates stuck it out for their contention and won in the Detroit meeting. Shackleford, erate while three kaeperman for the Chicago team and formerly of Wiley university, Marshall, will be the manager of the Cleveland owners refused to waive him. Ware, who played first basa in 1955 and subsbed in 1954 at the initial sack for the American Giants,
Carl Glass, who finished the season with the St. Louis Stars, after managing the Memphis Red Sox for 13 years, has been returned to the Memphis club as their property. Glass is considered as one of the best pitchers in the Miami Marlins, graduate of New Orleans university, and the man who piloted the American Giants to the world championship, Chicago club this year. That fact has been definitely settled upon. D. Crawford, who is wanted by a half dozen clubs as manager, will again uniform of the champions as coach. According to present plans Willie Parker, the Rugby军团, who plays with the Real Madrid league coast champions, will again pitch for the 38th St. club. Rubie Currie, McDonald, the underhand half, league coast champions, will again wonder with the curve ball, and Eddie Miller, who was injured in an auto accident last fall, make up the balance of the pitching staff. Currie signed up Hines and Russ, although the latter will not report until some time near the last part of May, when Sam Houston college, Austin, Texas
Jim Brown did all right; at first last year and will again be given a chance at the first sack job, Charlie Browne, at the back end, with Jackson at short and Marlarcher at third. The outfield will consist of Swett in center and Jelly Garden, in right. Browne will be in the back end from Gikerson's Union Giants to play left field in the place of Thompson, who went back to Birmingham, can be used to number 10 in Swett can be used to number 10 in field or at first and that Williams can be shifted to short, while Jackson is a whale of an outfielder. The American Giants is by no means permanent. It will be up to all the players to stay in condition and make good. Several new men will be tried out during the season and when the league season opens the fainn need not be surprised to see some new faces on the club. It will be a case of make good or get out.

the management of Bubbles Reeer and Jim Taylor, will open the season April 23 at Muehlenbach park against the Kansas City Monarchs. The Monarchs are sort of handicapped to start this season. Moore, who was shot in the last last season, will never play ball again, and Kansas City loses one of the best shortstops in the game. Newt Allen, who same along and played a game second to none and who made the fana; forget Walter Moore, has been sick, while Duncan, the league and faces a five-year suspension by going to Japan with Lannie Goodman's Royal Giants. Joseph, third baseman, and Mothel, second baseman, have top condition, having played with the Royals in the California Winter league. Torrentil will hardly be with the league club the heavy-hitting Cuban will play with is not determined at this writing. He claims he is not through with baseball and has some of the best days' work still in. But he wants to become a free agent.
The league season, owing to the no-sunday rule, in Birmingham, will begin on April 1. Birmingham, Barons will try to halt the pennant aspirations of the Cuban Stars, which Augusta Mollina has strengthened. Babe Ruth, and several new pitchers, Cleveland, under Frank Duncan, ex-American Giant outfielder, and Babe Ruth, and several pitchers, cluding Rile at first, Brew, and Dixon, catchers; Gwane, Riggins, Zomphries, and Collins, infielders; Rose, Square, and Dixon, sparers; Rose, Square, Mon, Spare, Dean (late of Kansas City), Branahan and Alexander pitchers, will be on the field from home on April 23 at Memphis, Memphis, with Glass back and with Miller and some top-notchers, will be on the field from warm weather, or has Birmingham, and both clubs ought to give a real good account of themselves right away. The schedule for the first half appears in an adjoining column.
for Beginners
CUMBLES
Your opponent will try to get away from you when in this position, but you can prevent his getting away by bringing him to the mat upon his left arm, or you may extend his left arm accure in front of his left arm and under his chin.
Grasp his right arm above the elbow, pull it toward you and push him, right, with your chest, which is resting against his trunk. This will bring his to the mat upon his right side.
The Half-Nelson
The half-nelson is one of the most common holds used in wrestling. It is not an effective hold when used, which becomes effective, however, when used in combination with some other hold.
To obtain a half-nelson insert your left arm under your opponent's left hand to your hand to the back of his head, your hand to the leverage and by raising upon his shoulder and pressing his head downward you can roll him over on his left arm to entwine around your right hand, your right hand place your right hand between his legs or "croft." Throw all your weight upon his chest and press his (Next week — The three-quarter nelson, wing lock and side roll).

LIZZIE JEST QUITS GAME TO BE MAID
And Baseball Loses Strange Character
REDUCE COSMOPOLITAN'S LEAD
Pern Woodward of Progressive
Community center is quite a nifty
last Friday night in the Sunday
School league game between Woodward's team and the league-leading
team, the St. Louis Cardinals, for
his five to a two-out-of-three victory.
His games were 213, 186 and 178; total pins, 577; average, 192. H. Balley
Cheatham's 182 was the best game
a Cosmopolitan man rolled. With
the seams end last four weeks off,
two-game lead, with St. Elizabeth,
Bethesda and Progressive crowding
might be in prospect, the
goal fanation likely to descend
on anybody's shoulders.
In the other games St. Elizabeth made a clean sweep of the series with St. Mark to strengthen her lead. The Olinet dropped one out of three to institutional. The former match presented some good bowling. Ernie Thomas, captain of the St. Elsevier team, and John Olinet and 165—and his sheikh teammate, Bert Nelson, rung-up the highest game, n 209. J. Lewis of St. Mark's contributed a 123. The annual tournament is held this week-and. Some high-class maze spelling is looked for. In addition to the star bowlers of the league, Frank Young, sports editor of The Chicago Defender, has accented the inviting. Details will be published next week.
TUSKEGEE TO START SEASON AGAINST SELMA
Baseball Gets Under Way Friday
Fuskegee Institute, Ala., March 19.
—More than thirty candidates for the Tuskegee baseball team are at practice each afternoon on Washington field.
Unaffectory weather conditions have made consistent practice impossible, so that final selection of the varity nline will not be made until after the first game with Selma university on Friday and Saturday, March 25 and 26, on the home diamond.
Among the old men who are out for the team are Captain Wooldridge, shortstop; Redeaux, right; field; Flood, third base; Bradford, right field; Meyers, left field; Bookman, first base; J. Grimes, second base; H. Grimes, pitcher, and Wylie, catcher.
Of the new material there are several promising candidates who unanimously made vacant by the graduation of Ashley, pitcher; Love, catcher, and by the failure of Lawson, second pitcher, to return to school. In order that the old players may be able to maintain their position they will have the advantage of the game than the unwelcome. It would appear from the material on hand that the field will be stronger than that which represents the second pitcher. Yet the players likely to land on the keystone sack is Arthur Winston, a young Ind from Atlanta, Ga., who thus far has demonstrated a fine illness for the place.
Lavow of Tulsa, Ola, and Freeman of Oakland, Calif., are running the ball and it will not be until both have been seen in action that selection for the place will be made. Harris is making a strong bid for shortstop and it will be held so long that he has been held so long by Captain Woolridge is now being contended for by this young young scrappy player from Oklahoma. He is not for third base assignment and will no doubt be the selection of the conch as Bernard Flood, former occupant, of the Oakland pitcher. Booker and Parker are also after the receiving position. Isaiah Robinson, varsity football end, is being groomed as a pitcher. Snell, a twirfer from Oklahoma, is being fine addition to the pitching staff.
In the outer garden there is an abundance of candidates for places. White is working hard for the left field and Britton are strong candidates for center field and Vasal is the applicant for right field. Other men of promise are: Moon Kershaw, Thomas Jackson, Dixon, Mitchell, Bally (halfback in the football team), Joseph, Stewart, Baker, Wylie (of last year's catching staff), Clayton, John W. Bishop and John
Coach Abbott has given no intimation of the probable assignments for the opening series. The competition there is every indication that those called upon will "squeeze" the ball and "whip" the willow as never before in order to secure permanent place in the 1935 Crimson baseball league.
The schedule follows: March 22 and 23, 10 a.m. at Tuskegee State Normal at Tuskegee; April 13 and 16, Tulalegue at Tuskegee; April 22 and 23, Morehouse at Tuskegee; April 22 and 23, Tulalegue at Tulalegue; April 22 and 23, Calhoun school, Calhoun, at Tuskegee; May 9 and 10, Morehouse at Atlanta; May 9 and 10, State Normal at Montgomery.
Community Girls Win From South Parkers
Community girls' basketball team emerged victor in a snappy tilt with South Park in the ninth by former gymnast and country star by 18 to 4. Community outplayed South Park from start to finish. The game was characterized by excellent teamwork on the part of the winners, though the victory was due largely to the skill of the players and Cornwell. The excellent-guarding of Pegge and Seamer held the losers to a low score. South Park put up a good fight, but was unable to get away. Porter of Community with three baskets hit the credit ring for South Park, exhibited some fine playing.
PRAIRIE VIEW WINS
Prairie View, Texas, March 15—Prairie View's Panthers won a 10-inning practice game here today from the Lincoln theater, O. F. Dewaltz of Houston. The score was 1 to 0. The Panthers scored in the last half of the 10th, when, with the bases full, Burton aided a slow run to "dire" the crosses, who was on third, raced home for the lone score of the game:
Bates, new 200-pound righthander, pitched the entire 10 innings for the Panthers.
RIGHERT GIANTS HALTED
Evansville, Ind., March 24—The Richert Giants have been temporarily halted from starting early spring practice because of the bad weather, but expect to start next week. R. E. Richert, of Brooklyn, and can be reached at 203 Linden Ave.

Lone Point Keeps Omegas From Title; Sigmas Win
Ala. State Outhit But Win 10 to 3
Mongomery, Ala., March 18—The Alabama State normal: baseball Hornets under the guiding eyes of the Tampa Bay Rays and Dunn openel their 1927 season by defeating the Solmia university charges of Couch Madison here today, by a count of 18 to 3. The Solmia players were never in trouble after the first inning when the visitors showed over a marker. They built their lead from the very first inning and while not getting as much as they could to combine hits and the Solmir miscues for the 10 runs. Captain Anderson drove one of the longest homers to deep center that has been played since then three bases on another long clout.
The visitors physed hard, with Craig James and Reeve at shortstop doing stellar work.

A Wonderful New Suit!
I have just brought out a wonderful new suit for men. It's a good suit - stylish, fit fine, and wears like iron. It is made of high-quality leather and has a long-wearing. It withstands treatment that would ruin an ordinary suit. And because these wonderful new suits are so stylish and wear-resistant, they are selling like wildfire. Hundreds of men in the territory will snatch at the chance to buy this most amazing suit.
A Red Hot Money Maker
Does that sound too good to be true? Then read the record of P. L. Hamilton. In less than a month's time Mr. Hamilton sold $113 worth of Comer suits. He takes 6, 8, 10 orders at a club. He writes letters to customers and sells the suit order every half hour. C. H. Mereneras made $18 profit in half a day. Robert Rizalda cleared $22 in one day and finds it easy to average $4 an hour. Casey says customers come to his house. He makes as high as $15 for every sale, so some opportunity to make this money right in your own town.
We are making this wonder suit in tremendous quantities — not one at a time—but by the thousand. All that modern machinery is applied in making the new Comer suit, efficiency in selling it, and from factory to wearer through our local representatives. The result is amazing. It brings this suit to the wearer at a price that makes it the greatest clothing value in years to pay—that makes it the greatest clothing value in years to pay.

AND THE COMPLEXION
It's surprising to see how quickly those disfiguring blemishes disappear, and dark, rough skin becomes bright, soft and smooth when you start using the preparation known as Black and White Ointment. This dainty cream acts gently, but surely, in making the skin soft, bright and smooth. The results from the first few applications are sufficient to make your friends see the improvement, and its continued use soon makes your skin perfectly soft, bright and clear.
BLACK AND WHITE OINTMENT
Is easy to use according to the directions on each package. Most people prefer to put on a thin film of it before bedtime, after bathing with the rich, creamy lather of the delicately fragranced Black and White Skin Soap to get the skin in condition to secure the best results from the cream. You leave the Black and White Ointment on all night and the next morning remove it with another lather of pure Black and White Skin Soap so as not to irritate the tender surface.
Black and White Ointment comes in 50c and 25c packages, but it is more economical to buy the larger size, as it contains three times as much ointment as the smaller size.
The natural emerald colored Black and White Skin Soap comes in liberal sized cakes at 25c each.
More than 80,000 dealers in city and country recommend and sell Black and White Soap and Black and White Ointment, along with the other Black and White Beauty Creations, such as Face Powder, "Incense of Flowers" Talcum Powder, Quinine Pomade, Rouge, Lipsticks, etc., which are being used at the overwhelming rate of more than fifteen million packages a year.
