New York Astir Over Mayor Walker's "Ugly Protest"
STUDENTS STRIKE. BUT LOSE DEMAND
"I have liked in particular your vigilance, intelligence and courage in fighting the advent of the Jim Crow school into the North. It does us even more harm than the Jim Crow car. Although serving in a Jim Crow school, I never lose an opportunity to condemn the system of segregation, for I see its infinite harm done to us daily in inequalities of equipment and depression of spirit of the army of our youth. There has never been a fight that I have entered here that has not been met by white officials citing our Jim Crow schools as justification for further discrimination."
The above letter came to The Chicago Defender from Indianapolis, Ind., where members of our Race have put jobs above Race principles and accepted segregation in the city's educational system. The writer's name is being withheld for his protection, for if his name were known the "Uncle Toms" would carry the message to their "masters" and he would be dismissed immediately from the service.

Wanted Segregation in Rome Cafe
New York, Sept. 23.—(Special)—Thousands of Harlemites are up in arms over the recent action of Mayor James T. Walker, who showed his true colors on the race problem last week by demanding that men and women not white be ejected from the cabart Bragaglia in Rome, Italy, where the mayor is now enjoying his vacation.
According to the report, the included book place while Mayor Walker was making a tour of amusement houses and cabarets in the Italian capital on the evening of Sept. 10. During the course of the evening he and his party visited the famous Caietet Bragaglia, among the patrons of which were several of our group.
When Mayor Walker entered the place and saw them seated quietly at tables in the place, he immediately lodged a protest, against their heyday, and demanded that they be asked to leave.
Management Objects
This the management hesitated to do, and attempted to explain to the Democratic mayor that in Italy there is no such thing as race prejudice; but Walker continued his protestations. He was told that the men and women in question were Brazilian citizens of high standing in the community, but this did not appease his wrath and he proceeded to present in the room with him. Later, in deference to the wishes of the visiting mayor, the management politely asked the Brazilians to leave the hall. They did so.
As the evening wore along the Brazilians were permitted to return to the cabaret, but immediately upon their reappearance Mayor Walker renewed him protest and, falling to have them ejected the second time, left the cabaret it appeared in the stopover Italy-American, an Italian daily paper published in this city, as is follows:
WALKER VISITS A CABARET AND PROTESTS THE PRESENCE OF SOME NEGROES
Rome, Sept. 12.—The mayor of New York, Hon. James Walker, on Saturday last, after having visited various localities of the capital, accompanied by several friends, he went to the noted Cabaret Bragaglia, among the spectators present in the hall of the cabaret, the Hon. James Walker noted some Negroes. He immediately manifested his desire that the Negroes be dismissed. He was told that in Italy there is no existing race prejudice, and that the Negroes were Brown. On October Walker's continued insistence, the Negroes were gently asked to leave the establishment. The Negroes after a while were allowed to return, and the Honorable Mayor Walker, noting their reappearance, renewed his protest and abandoned the case. The episode was variously commented on, and not very favorably. Upon reading this story Harlentles here will undoubtedly be the most the capital with his utterances here when he makes another attempt to run for mayor of New York.
Cable Cafe Owner
Seeking to get an immediate denial of the report, friends of Mayor Walker sent a cablegram to Anton Bragaglia, owner of the cabaret where the incident occurred, hoping that his explanation would serve to

Georgia Bully Whipped in Paris Cafe
Predict Mob Law if Man Goes South
San Francisco, Calif., Sept. 30.—The northern California branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People reports to the national office, through Hattie E. DeHart, its secretary, that it has been working night and day to prevent extradition to Oklahoma of Edward Glass, wanted for shooting a police officer in the defense of his home after police persecution. The case is to come up in the federal court in San Francisco. A summary of the entire case prepared by the Northern California branch states that Mr. Glass lived in Sapulpa, Okla., and was highly respected by both races. He was the owner of a hotel, a cafe, an undertaking parlor, and a number of houses which he rented out. He was the chief member and an outstanding leader among his people in Sapulpa.
Target of Attacks
Because of his political influence among his own race he was the target of attacks by white people, one of his opponents being the local chief of police, Morey by name. Morey is quoted as having said in a newspaper a political statement "my faction wins the town will be too small for that nigger and myself." After the election, it is reported, unwarranted raids on Glass' place of business were begun. Finally Glass went to a lawyer for an injunction from making such raids. The chief, hearing of this, sent four uniformed men to Glass' care about 9:30 p.m. to raid the place. Glass had closed up and had turned out his lights with the exception of the burglar light over the sofa to force the door he looked out and saw in the darkness, three or four men with drawn revolvers. Prior to this time his place had been held up twice. He dropped behind the counter and began to crawl toward the rear of his store, where he returned the fire. During the fight he was wounded three times, his gun being shot from his hand. He learned the next day he had killed one man and wounded two others. He escaped, finally reaching Oakland, Cal., about 15 months ago. He was arrested and charged with business under the name of Fred Smith when extradition proceedings were begun.
Hotel Burned
Meanwhile, in Sapulca, his hotel and understaffing establishment were burned to the ground, no one being punished. Also a man arrested for having helped him to escape was burned to the ground, no one being punished of the police, on the ground that he had attempted to escape, but he was found handcuffed.
After extradition papers for Glass had been forwarded to Governor C. C. Young of California, a hearing of the police, attended by a retary, attended by many Oakland people. While the hearing was in progress a writ of habeas corpus was petitioned for in Alameda county. The governor signed the extradition writ, but exacted a promise to the judge that the prisoner would be given full opportunity to present his case in court.
The defense plans to prove in federal court that it will only mean death to Glass before a fair trial can be pursued. Or perhaps, if the prisoner would be given full opportunity to present his case in court.
The defense plans to prove in federal court that it will only mean death to Glass before a fair trial can be pursued. Or perhaps, if the prisoner would be given full opportunity to present his case in court, it will be so dominated by mob spirit and mob threats that it will be a violation of the prisoner’s constitutional right to a fair trial. Accompanying the trial, the defense is seeking to extradite Glass, who is seeking to extradite Glass, to the chief of police of Sapulca.
Ten years ago the folks at home were wondering if their sons and husbands, who were sent to France in droyes, had been killed or wounded in the great war.
Today the sons and husbands, having returned from the big fight, are wondering why so few dark-skinned Americans were sent as delegates to the American Legion convention.
GETS MESSAGE FROM
GOD, THEN BEATS COP
New York, Sept. 30.—Having been "obtained by God to destroy the world," William Clark, a recent arrival from Florida, jumped into a policeman's compassion Thursday and ended in the Believee hospital, where he is being detained for psychopathic observation.
Determined to start his career of destruction auspiciously, Clark managed to give a good account of himself. On his way to Believee in an apartment, he met a policeman who arrested him, but failed in his effort to get possession of the officer's revolver. The policeman escaped from the madman with a fractured thumb.
Policeman Daniel Mandell of the W. 135th St. station said he had come upon St. as he was addressing a men from a stoop at 131 W. 139th St.
Clark, the officer said, was telling the people that he had been ordered by God to destroy the world and he was going to begin right away.
Catching sight of the officer, Clark decided that he would be a good thing to him.
"I don't like them, anyhow," he is reported to have cried out as he jumped at the policeman:
The policeman placed Clark under
and then summoned the ambulance.
AUTO SHEIKS
PROVE TO BE
THREE GEESE
Papas of staid old Evanston were up in arms because their daughters had made many complaints to them about sheiks riding in automobiles and honking their horns at them. The girls waxed indignant, but the climax was reached when Miss Ruth Carson, taking her daily walk, heard the series of honks which were immediately followed by a peck at one of her shapey legs. She turned with fire blazing from her eyes, thinking it was some fresh college student, and she gazed at—three geese nipping at her other leg.
She ran two blocks with the flock in hot pursuit. Her journey took her past the police station, which refuge she sought. The geese were held until the arrival of the owner, Matthew Simons, proprietor of a small restaurant. The mystery of the flirting honks was solved and the papas sleep in peace.
CHICAGO BOY KILLED WHEN AUTO WRECKS
Alvah Wyckliffe Taylor, 21 years old, former student of Wendell Phillips high school and son of Prof. and Mrs. John A. Taylor, 4124 Vincennes Ave., was fatally injured last week in an automobile accident while en route with a party of friends to Chicago from Detroit, Mich. In the car with Taylor were Bob Willmns and Muller Taylor, both of Detroit, and Elijah Smith of South Bend, Ind. They were motoring to Chicago to see the Dempsey-Tunney light when the car driven by Smith, the bus driver of the highway, ran Cusaspolis, Mich. The collision resulted in the wrecking of the machine and the serious injuries to its occupants. Taylor's companions were rushed to a hospital in South Bend, Ind., by members of another auto party, who were taken to the hospital after the Smith. They intended returning for the body of Taylor, believing he had been killed outright. In the meantime he was discovered by Sheriff Harry W. Eby of Cusaspolis and hurried to a hospital in Eikhart, Ind., where he was treated for a wreck. His body was sent here and taken to McGavock's morgue, from which place he was buried.

Legion Vets Find France Is Different
By MORGAN BLAKLEY (Paris Correspondent of Chicago Defender)
Paris, France, Sept. 30.—Southern whites, schooled in prejudice and "Jim Crowism," now visiting Paris as members of the American Legion, are attempting to establish race hatred among the French, but are falling short of their purpose.
They never miss an occasion to impress the French that, "color makes a difference," but Frenchmen will not pay heed to their prejudicial appeals and are beginning to view with alarm the lawlessness to, which Americans resort in furtherance of their propaganda.
Paris, however, is not surprised at the conduct of the American visitors, and resort owners requested additional police protection to avoid racial clashes. This action was hastened when it was learned that over a hundred dark Americans now employed as musicians and entertainers in cities across the country, secret meetings and discussed plans by which they could offset American prejudice that was sure to exert itself, the said, with the advent of the Legion's visit.
These plans, police learned, were "patterned on terms of hostility but not shaped more in the style of the hum's rush."
Thinka He's in Georgia
The first serious outbreak occurred last week when James Parrish, a white man, who said he was from Atlanta, Ga., entered a restaurant in the Rue Monsort and objected to the presence of four dark Americans. His protest went unheeded by the management of the cafe, but to impress his paint he went outside and struck the windows, free-for-all fight ensued in which Parrish used a knife on a Paris policeman who interfered.
Parrish, left by his companions to finish the battle, was unmercifully beaten and when he arose from the door his face bore the imprints of a black man's heel on his jaws and neck. He was taken into custody for murder, for whom he was once placed under arrest. The next day he was fined and reprimanded in court.
Americans Are "Bullies"
Americans Are "Bullies"
Controversy over the war debt has given rise to the belief among Frenchmen that Americans are of a bally and heavily nature, while Americans are politely, but are careful to avoid close friendship because of their air of braggadocio. Most white Americans are regarded as "obnoxious" by the French, who base their opinion on the training the Americans get from pulpit and press in their country.
"They are preached to daily by the American press and on Sunday by religious leaders to believe that any公祠 will cannot be built against injustices." Did a leading French writer recently, "We cannot see their point of view on matters racial. We love our black citizens while Americans despise theirs; we want them to love France and enjoy their culture." Could America be rich in material wealth but poor in culture. The United States could hold England responsible in a measure for this sad affliction, for it was the latter country that used South Carolina as the model of American states as penal colonies in the early days, from which the present day 'southern culture and aristocracy' has arisen."
FIRES ON POLICEMAN

Board Stands Pat on Mixed School
By DEWEY B. JONES
Gary, Ind., Sept. 30.—"We want an all white school!" "Emerson must be made white—niggers must get out of Emerson high school before we will return." These and many more are the signs that greet strangers and citizens in Gary today, three days after white school children started their strike which they claim they will maintain until their demands are met.
And quietly holding the fort in his office, William A. Wirt, staid superintendent of schools in Gary, states: "They never will be met." The trouble started about two weeks ago, according to Gary residents of both races who were consulted, when the school board, in order to arrange for an unusually large enrollment in all of the city's schools and to provide high school teachers for those in pursuit of the Race to Emerson high school, the aristocrat of schools in Gary. These transferred. Joining with six who were already enrolled, brought the number of this group in Emerson up to 24 in insignificant number as compared to the 1,500 enrollment in the school.
Looked for: Excitement
But white children were looking for excitement and, abetted and encouraged by their parents, decided to make trouble for the authorities who were responsible for the transfer, mostly at laying off workers at from 200 to 600 marched out. Storming noisily through the corridors of this beautiful building, they stamped up and down the stairs, banged the doors and yelled as they snake-danced out onto the lawn and started their march through the business section of the town. For more than two hours they stopped truffle on Broadway. Gary's principal thoroughfare, while police looked on tolerantly. Threats of violence to the children and the staffs who were heard from the crowd, and as the situation became tense, orders were given by the police authorities to break up the parade and disperse the crowd. Upon the strike was resumed, and by 3 o'clock, when school was dismissed, it was said that 800 students had left their classes with the strikers. Activities during Tuesday showed that the strike was no idle prank of children, but that they were receiving instruction from parents, who were chief alms seem to be to make trouble. More signs appeared on streets and buildings Tuesday, and in spite of the heavy rainfall during the afternoon children gathered in the school shouting insults at those who refused to join the strikers.
Remain in Classes
Meanwhile the 24 innocent causes of the strike are attending their classes regularly. There is little or no probability that they will be removed. Generally the attitude of both races is that the board of education was acting within its authority and on the less interest of a citizen whom it had cared for. They threw the two dozen into Emerson and that it cannot alter its decision to suit the students.
Superintendent Wirt, in discussing the situation, declared that the board does not recognize a strike and that the children may remain away from classes at their own risk. "The longer they stay out the more severe will be their punishment," he is reported to have stated. On the other hand.

Try a little disgustin. Dests the world for stomach comfort. Hard in tell what unseats a stomach. Sometimes it's milk or fresh bread or steak and onions. Almost anything will cause gas, billowness or heartburn. But when you eat a mushroom words like music.

Anyone at the mercy of restaurants and lunch counters can fortify their stomach against trouble with one or two diaphores after eating. A blood package of Papé Diaphesin at any drug store. You'll enjoy the effect.

The only clues the men left were large bunches of feathers which had belonged to the departed flock. They were taken from the field and 45 chickens, alleged to have been stolen from Low Brunsley, were in their car at the time.

exonerate the mayor, but the answer they received was disappointing. It read as follows:
"I'm so glad to have the chance to state the facts. Mayor Walker, seeing two dark men dancing here, told me he was surprised I should allow them to dance with white women. I replied the reason was that I am a Catholic and the Catholic church not only recognizes black people as brethren in Christ, but that they are not treated like women." But since Mayor Walker was my distinguished guest that evening I asked the Brazilians in question not to mention and explained, they were good, Negroes, but Creoles, and, moreover, French citizens, although Brazilian born, and artists. They were then residing in Rome, they said.
"I told this to Mayor Walker and he accepted the explanation. I also asked a friend of mine to tell the Brazilians not to dance any more and to leave left off dancing. Mayor Walker did not leave my place before everything was over and never even threatened to do so."

COPS TO FACE MURDER TRIAL COURT RULES
Warrants Issued on Mandamus Writ
Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept. 30. — The Constitution declares that the courts shall be open to anyone seeking redress. When the clerk of the city seized the court, he closed the court to some one, thus violating the Constitution, declared Judge Stanley Struble in common pleas court.
This statement was made when the judge issued a writ of mandamus to the court, to issue the warrants charging murder against John Bugganer and William Brasher, policemen assigned to the Fourth district.
Brasher and Bugganer, it is alleged, murdered a 67-year-old Civil War veteran, during a raid on his home, 741 W. Fourth St., on Aug. 3 last. They testified that Elliott seized a revolver upon their entrance into his room and was going to kill the two officers were exonerated at the inquest and Coroner C. Swing is alleged to have made the statement that the men were justified in killing, as the circumstances under which the old man was slain were justified.
Attorney A. Lee Beatty, representing Miss Nannie Mayberry, niece of the aged victim, in her mandamus plea, alleging that she gated the case, and the circumstances in the shooting warranted a murder charge. The case will be bitterly fought by both sides.

A BABY OF YOUR OWN
Thousands of women have used the Famous Werneria Compound to correct "institutional" nerves and improve their letters of praise for the satisfaction and benefit they received after using this marvelous compound. One California lady writes: "During my eldest I had my dreams of what marriages would be and what life would be and what dreams and childless dreams I sent for your Nerano "compound, and after taking samples with my eldest I had the chance to change and my dreams have as last come true. My married life is now indeed happiness compounded." A lady in Pennsylvania writes: "I am writing to thank you for what your medicine has done for me. I have the dearest baby girl six months old. I never thought I could have any babies. I took my wife to the hospital and she took ours. You may use my name any way you wish. I thank you again." Nt. Bellie These are just two couples of hundreds of letters received from a wonderful compound, and I have been in years of hospital practice. He is now retired and that should be here and has made it possible for her to treat the small sum of letters she satisfied.

ABYSSINIAN ENVOY VISITS U.S.PRESIDENT
Government to Send Charge d'Affaires
Washington, D. C., Sept. 30. The department of state expects to send a diplomatic representative to Abyssinia this week. This statement was issued by the department last Saturday following the call of Dr. C. Martin, a legal advisor to the president of Sina and personal representative of the regent. The envoy stated that the regent of Abyssinia is very anxious about an interest in his country, since he feels that the United States has no selfish political interest. The request was made to congress for an invitation to a legation at Adda Abba, the capital, but it was not approved by the house committee on foreign relations. This department will send a member of the foreign service to Abyssinia as charge d'affaires, since the president is eminent despite this without a special appropriation.
The United States maintained a commissioner and plenipotentiary in the management files, from 1903 to 1966. From 1906 to 1909 the United States was represented by a vice consul, while from 1910 to 1914 he served in Persia, Hoffman Philip, acted as minister. Since 1913 there has been no American representative in the United States, and he has been in the hands of the British minister, although the American consultate in Aden, Arbil, handles trade matters. During his interview with President Coolidge Dr. Martin presented the president with a gold shield, the medal of the American ship, and addressed to the president a message in behalf of the prince regent. The president was unable to meet the president or any other government officers from accepting gifts from foreign countries. The elaborate bright red covering, was left on Mr. Coolidge's desk for his disposition.

Cop's Partner Charges
Los Angeles, Cal., Sept. 30, 2014—From the production of affidavits, purporting to show that Frank Randolph, arresting policeman, procured Emma Brown, 1410 Delma St. on charges of sale and possession ofIGNee, Municipal Judge Woods sustained the motion of Attorney Guy and granted Mrs. Brown a new trial.
Mrs. Brown was arrested last March at her home by Officers Randolph and Sheffield. She was conceived chiefly upon the evidence of Randolph, who testified that he was peering through a glass pane in the front door when he saw a police operative purchase a pint of wine from the Sheffield, according to the affidavit, told Attorney Eldy following the trial that Randolph was behind a tree in the yard at the time of the murder, and that he had not seen a violation of the law.

PARENTS USE CHILDREN TO STIR TROUBLE
Board Stands Pat on Mixed School
(Continued from Page 1)
Leaders of the Race in Gary, who have watched the situation closely, are outspoken in stating that much of the trouble now stirring was due to activities of several teachers in Emerson school, who declared that the school was one of the leading figures in the member of the board of education is openly mentioned as espousing un-American tactics in the school. This member, from Arkansas, is high in authority and, declare many Gary citizens, who asked not to be quoted, is one of the leading figures in the movement toward complete segregation in Gary.
Ku Klux Busy
The opinion seems to be, among Gary's leading citizens, that there is a tense situation, aggravated by sister workers of the Ku Klux Klan. They strongly strong in the Steel City. They break a definite move to separate the schools entirely. The state law of Indiana provides for segregation, but specifically states that where separation does prevail the schools for each race in every respect. Emerson high school is the finest school in Indiana and would cost more than a million dollars to duplicate. Indiana citizens, including Kluxans, while they seem willing to comply with the segregation part, seem willing to spend a million dollars on a school when it isn't necessary.
"I don't believe it can be said that we have segregation in Gary," said one white man to the Defender representative. Although he refused to be quoted, he was quite frank in disclosing that he had Colored children in every school in the city and they have been in Emerson for years. But the idea of a large group being thrust in this exclusive school suddenly is like going away from home to borrow trouble." He stated further that he was in sympathy with the stricken children, but he could be forced to change its ruling.
---
At a meeting of the city council Monday night, at which the three members of the Race elected aldermen attended, the mayor was asked by Merrit Martin, president of the city council, to order the parade broken up in the afternoon, and Mayor E. Wills, who was reported to have left the city Tuesday afternoon, answered that he was with the striking children. He refused to make further statement on the subject, and after the parade ended, he asked Tuesday night, appointed another Gary citizen to speak for him. The three aldermen of the Race, William E. Burrus, A. B. Whitlock and Samuel R. Blackwell, are watching quietly from their official positions and although they refuse to be quoted, they are aware of a serious nature. They look upon the whole affair as a childish prank which will soon blow over.
Sees Serious Aspect
Attorney F. W. Alexander, a partner in the office of Alderman Whitlock, however, takes a more sanguine attitude. "The Khan has long been cared for, and it looks as if this is its opportunity. It is no hard matter for us to see that these children are being spurred on by their parents and others who want friction." Judge William E. Hueston declared that he had to out that the schools are running according to schedule, and the pupils are still attending, therefore the Race, at least, has no complaint to make. Gary is a city of 120,000, 20,000 of percentage of which is foreign. Most of the children of the Race who have reached the high school standing are enrolled at Freebel, which is about 70 per cent white. The contention he sent to Freebel and Emerson should be numbered of whites transferred to Emerson. The board of education, however, takes the view that these children at Emerson are in the school nearest their homes, and that to the extent of the military defeat to the forces of Nuxism and irresponsible children.

PROCLAMATION
SIGNED JUST
65 YEARS AGO
President Abraham A. Lincoln issued the Emancipation proclamation Sept. 22, 1862. The Chicago Tribune in its editorial column on Sept. 22, 1862, carried the following statement:
President Lincoln has set his hand and flicked the great seal of the nation to the grandest proclamation ever issued by man. He has declared that after the 1st day of January next all the slaves in the then rebellious states shall be free. He has also signed an order of the army and navy to observe and enforce the emancipation sections of the confiscation act. He has further indicated his purpose to propose once more his scheme for the abolishment of slavery in the border states, with a sufficient number of slaves accepted something worse will happen. Thus, it will be perceived, his proclamation aims at nothing less than complete emancipation and the establishment of a free republic from the lakes to the Gulf.
So splendid a vision has hardly shone upon the world since the day of the Mossiah. From the date of this proclamation begins the father's regiment, our fathers designed to have at the home of freedom, the asylum of the oppressed, the seat of justice, the land of equal rights under the law, where each man, however humble, shall be entitled to freedom. Let no one think to stay the glorious reformation. Every day's events are hastening to its triumph, and whoso shall place himself in its way it will prince him to powder, and if he does so, 45 years ago, that under the peekless, fearless leadership of Joseph Medill it stood for freedom and justice. Can as much be said for that organ today, now that it has reached the status of the World's Greatest Newspaper?

Dear Princess: Seven years ago, at the age of five, I had my first bed, who was then 25 by me being young. I always acted as if I was a child, and so indifferent that he stopped coming to my bed. I was 25 years older than he. I left and went to another city, and have been there since. He has loved me and we would have have loved him. We would have waived until I agreed to but even promised to marry him. He has been corresponding. He has also visited me. I am this woman known about me. Now, Princess. I want to know how I would be taken from her bed, as would he be taken from me, as we advise me what to do—Lovey.
Dene Princess: You have helped so many others, now I am coming to you every year. I have been married eight years, my first five happy, but since then it has been very unpleasant. My first trouble was started when she and the county constable. This seemed to give him the "big head," he shouted, she shouted, she drunk, shoot his pistol any place, and act like an outlaw. Then he began to go on an adventure in which he, which I have paid four of them, the father of another girl's baby. The baby is 4 months old; but he denies it. But he is now spending four months on the county farm for bootlegging and and faithful wife and move to some other town wife and finished his good to him, worked and helped him, to him a new town, or should I ever live with him any more? I could never do as you say. Worried Turtle.
There are so many various species there seems impossible to conquer just the cause of them. Some people find it apparent reason, still it is there. Your husband has only done what most of some men's part to make themselves more important than they are. Real people tend to add it or take away from it. If a person is worth anything, the world has to untrassured every law of ownership upon their own virtue. I see no reason for you to feel obligated to your own life. He has transgressed every law of currency toward you. There is nothing more important than you have been a true and faithful wife and known him model husband. He has made every way. His department has merited your freedom. There is no reason to him to any other place. If he cannot live in another, his life is all his own now and it is wise to leave it to him.

LINWOOD'S LETTER
Columbus, Ohio—Monday, Sept. 18
found the gang at the Pythian theater, Columbus, Ohio. This is a beautiful little theater, but it was built for a picture house, and since its opening and the closing of the Dumbar here the manager is giving to the patrons this house first-class tilie and the best pictures the studios can release.
Everywhere you go managers are getting bad business, and several theaters have closed during the summer, some of them are going to stay put.
One solution of this problem of why they were having such bad business is because they want good shows, a majority of them were no good on percentage. And, too, there should be more good shows on the T. O. as there are put enough real shows.
The Koppi theater—speaking of patronage—is not what it used to be, but business was very good during our engagement there. But it is not what it was meant to be, because the popular house is well managed by D. W. Greer. The stage is handled by the one and only Browne, and one will find it a pleasure to listen to the orchestra under the direction of Freed Hearn. The gang was entertained several nights in Detroit. Lovers of dancing got a chance to hear Alex. Jackson and his Plantation theater in Columbus Wednesday. In the cast of the show attended the dance. Francis White is no longer with the gang. Mattie Dorsey is on the slick list. Mabel Whitman Pavon, the producer of the show, is away on business. Members of the I. B. P. O. E. W. entertained the company Thursday night, Sept. 22. The company will move to the Daleville theater, Cinemaatt, Ohio, Sept. 22.
The Whitmans started the season with such well-known performers as Male Whitman, William Munger, producer Albert White, Alice Whitman, Princess Woo Wee, Mattie Dorsey, Juliet Turcauz, Toy Meyers, Thelma Bryant, Alfreda White, Alice White, Prince Free, Don't leave New York; Ethel will be there soon, Boys; W. B. Johnson, Anthony Grant, Willie Bryant, Alice White, Prince Free, Albert Choppe); Orchestra; Troy S. Snapp, piano; Archie Anderson, violin; Ernest Melschal, clarinet; F. B. Payton, saxophone; Sterling Peterson, clarinet and Llinoo Bradley, drums. Willie Tooswet is the comedian on the show.

IN OLD KAYSEE
B. CHARLES O'NEAL
Kansas City, Mo.—The week's entertainment at the Lincoln theater was all that one could wish. The vaudeville bill, consisting of three songs by the musical duo Dempsey-Sharkey light pictures created as much intenseness as if the men were on the stage in person. Gainer and Gainer, man and woman, were joined with new songs, comedy lines and dances and were received with more than the usual enthusiasm offered vaudeville acts by the musical duo Dempsey-Sharkey. Williams offered a dramatic sketch that was unusual for its pathos as well as humor. Criner will be best remembered for his dramatic work by the musical duo Dempsey-Players. Miss Williams, who has appeared here before, is an able partner, and if there is such a thing as emotional comedy intermingling with dramatic art, these have it. Charles Davenport and Iva Smith, billed as Davenport and Smith, closed the stage offerings with a medley of of oldies and modern jazz piano playing, oodles of gags and dance steps. All in all, these three acts are a sure-fire hit in any house. After the show the writer enjoyed a lengthy confair with Mr.
Criter informed me of many interesting facts in regard to the hard work, proper location, finance and many other things that so with picture production. Having appeared in more than 100 exhibitions to be efficient and reliable in any statement he makes concurring this line of industry; and at the end of our career, he would glad to promise to give all support possible in the future toward managers of our local theater in showing face pictures whenever possible.
When in Newport News, Va., the theatrical people consider the Green Tax趴 in the one best place to stop for a drink. The hospitality displayed upon the part of its owner, Mrs. Branch, to their guests, a brother, George Ondina, gave one a real home-like feeling, and a wish to remain much longer than their engagement calls for. The Nighttime revue and Doc Hyde's Southern southerners enjoyed their pleasant stay at the Green Tax趴, where they were delighted to meet the hostess on Wednesday evening. Mrs. Branch extends an invitation to the many performers who wish to attend the many comforts of the Green Tax趴.

With her family, she is relative, and owing to her serious condition, Mrs. Goodloe will not travel with her show this season.

chair violinist in the Metropolitan theater orchestra, Chicago.
Darnell Howard has handed in his notice as a member of the Vendome theater orchestra.
The third of the musician gets $2,520 a week doubling in a local local orchestra. His hours are from 12 midnight until 4 a.m. The scale salary is only $65 for seven hours. This is the extraordinarily high. Chicago is the best music town in the country.
Lawrence Harrison is the director of Harrison's Synco-Teppers, a music company that has made a favorite impression in Chicago. Mr. Harrison comes from a musical family, his mother, Mrs. Richard H. Harrison, winning fame as a plainsman. His sister, Marion, is a musician. His brothers, bettes, and his father, Richard H. Harrison, is a famed leader. Lawrence was, until recently, a member of Cooke's famous Dreamland orchestra.
The Hall Johnson Jubilee singers of New York, under the management of Cecil McPherson, opened at Roxy's million dollar theater in New York Dec. 1 and went over as the first musician to play the world's largest theater.
The Kentucky choir of New York played a successful week's engagement philip, Pa. last week. The choir is headed by Robert Caver and Gus Simmons. Jimmy Johnson, the eccentric pianist is shifted to upstate on the stage of the University of Pennsylvania very soon. He has recently composed a "Blue Rhapsody," which he will demonstrate in the large cinema. Biddie Heywood and his orchestra are on the Jimmy Cooper burlesque show now touring the Columbia wheel. Though it poured rain Saturday, Sept. 17, the night that Fletcher Henderson and his orchestra played at the Coliseum, Chicago, the affair was a financial success. The orchestra performed percentages and scores for their share $225. There would have been a turn-away if it had not been for the heavy downpour of rain, but were unanimous in their praise of the Race's greatest orchestra. Leon Herrford, the musician, is located in Los Angeles, Cal., where the orchestra will page him at 10:23 E. 9th St.
In an interview with the powers that he who will control the new theater at 47th St. and South parkway, Werner learned that no plans or policies would be made to guard the running of the house. No orchestra has been selected, nothing has been done and it is doubtful as to what theatrical syndicate will operate the theater, which not only has a large audience. The Borgelstein Bros. reality promoters, are the conceivers of the community project. Harrison Hall has severed his connection with Chicago's high-ring orchestra. He is residing in Cleveland, Ohio, where the mail man will page him at 2347 E. 55th St. Edward South, one of Chicago's finest violinists, started to work in the Vendome orchestra this week, an important addition to the unit. Hugh C. Swift and his Jeffrey Tavern Serenaders closed their engagement at that place last Monday night. After a concert with Alicia Calemese, the cornet plays will take over the contract, supplying a 10-piece orchestra.

Disabled Musicians
Today there are too many disabled musicians in the ranks. When I say "disabled," I mean those who are in a phase of the art, I mean those whose technique is kapilainen, and those who have no effort to correct themselves. I mean those who have no opportunity to use their instruments and make no effort to play the music. I mean those who can read just enough to get the best after playing it ever live or six
Dave Pewter
P
time, I mean those who can play "jazz" music and nothing else. I mean those who have a panel of versatility and are "trunk-ards." I mean those who are egotistic over what musical attainments they have. I mean those whose head is bowed, and who are struggling the distifies of the brother musician. It isn't only the poorly schooled students who have music lessons who are qualified in music and are troubled with other ailments. Now let me say to all of the above named classes of musicists: Get in line, and ask the teacher to ment, seek the best teacher in your town; tell the teacher your troubles, and what difficulty you have in playing the instrument to measure up to the standards. If you are a qualified musician and suffer from "bad habits," get right out, and continue your hard time finding employment. Bunch, get out of this disabled class, purify yourselves in morals and the art and be among the country with the fine art.

Grant Moore, much persecuted by the launch, a regular follow and a first-class musician, has overcome all the "obstacles" his jealous brothel friends have faced in the past, and a concrete determination to "win," Grant Moore has captured the plum and his enemies will soon be asking him for a job. Grant has lived in Milwaukee for 20 years. He is a schooled musician and knows his instruments, which are members of the wood-wind family. The bunch in Milwaukee would not be able to work as a barber shop to work as a tonalist artist. Grant was determined not to be starved out. For this he should be admired. With that determination he has been involved in conversations, as it is very hard for the brother to keep his business to himself. He found out the proper roads to raverse, got himself together a small band, and first started playing in Wisconsin and Michigan. He finally enlarged his orchestra until he had ten players. Then the good work Grant made from that time until now Grant has been the front row of orchestras itself.
He has just signed a year's contract with the million dollar Coliseum ballroom at Minnesota, Minn. As a coach, he has just landed the biggest job of his life." He was working in a small dance hall owned by the same management and the orchestra made such a fine record in the small place that he was invited to the large Coliseum palace. Grant Moore invites this writer to come up as his guest soon. Probably I may go to lend encouragement to this fine player, but I will reach the boys at 342 Aldrich Ave. Minnesota, Minn.
Noted Lady Musician
Plantation Merry Makers
The Plantation Merry Makers, a bunch of ambitious musicians, are no musical unit on the Howard Pres. The Plantation Merry Makers sided one of the finest group in this line of work. In the line-up are: Monroe Ealker, piano; James Robbins, saxophone; George Bell, trumpet and six other musicians whose names were omitted.
Russell Writes
Louis Russell, formerly pianist in King Joe Oliver's Plantation café orchestra, Chicago, is still sticking to the early, Russell writes that he longs for Chicago, but will not come back until he can bring the lacoon with him. He says he wants to play right but he will him Chickadee. He tells of the success of Henry Saparo, who used to be an actor and was well known in Chicago ten years ago, and string instrument's leading play music and he was a full grown man at the age of 35 when he started. Now he has mastered the banjo and string instrument's leading play music and it only goes to show that it can be done if we want to do it. Think of Mr. Saparo, he didn't know a note from the 35 and now is a new big leader. Russell speaks highly of Mr. Saparo, who is putting his orchestra on the dollar Bamboo inn, one of Broadway's bright night life spots. He also states in his letter that Lawson New York has played him taken New York by demand. He is playing with Chickle Webb's orchestra, now playing an engagement in Boston. Mall will reach at 313 W. 119th St., New York.
Tom Lemonier
Many of the old-timers will remember Tom Lemonier, composer of that famous song, "Just One Word on the Country." He is 15 years ago with its popularity. He is now busily engaged in the music publishing business. His line is sacred music and he publishes the latest numbers are "Jesus Christ, Our King," "What Will You Do With Jesus" and "You Will Need Jesus One of These Days." Mr. Lemonier has had a new venture and all you can get out of him when meeting him is "I am still trying and will some day hit the grumbles and these kind of people with ambition坠fall form."
Notes
Orchestra leaders standing in front of the public should attire themselves in full dress or tuxedo. Sammy Stewart and his orchestra are playing as an extra attraction at the Chicago. They are on the stage and get the big end of the applause. Wright Smith is the capable first

The Biggest Store of Victor Records in Philadelphia
CHICK BEAMAN SAYS
The Georgia spent last week at the Elmore theater, Pittsburgh. Business was only fair, yet the show went on. The critics were very lavish in their praise of our production looking at it from all angles, but laying special stress upon the cleanliness of the audience. Cleanliness has always been the policy of this show as we play the best theaters throughout the country, but laying special stress upon the average Race theater, doesn't mean anything to the box office. Clean shows cannot compete with the average tail show that finds their coachee in the box office. I have heard the voice of three managers this season and judging from what they're saying, there is a decent house, is clean. Conditions are actual in the houses we've played, and the way it looks to yours truly, there will be a lot of I.O. S.'s carried around by some of the weakers tales.
The Brazilian Nuts followed us in Pittsburgh and they should do well as they have a clean record. The manager is all smiles as they are a sure shot and they do a clean show. Mr. and Mrs. A, K. Estelle, were guests of the Georgians Sunday at dinner. Also Mrs. Kelley from Chiropractic the wife of our orchestra leader. All the bunch are, or were dipy, about Dempsey to flatten Tunney. No money's changed hands, however. Ed. Carr is praying for the Pirates to win. Ed. Carr chilled his enthusiasm last week by taking three out of four games. The Georgians will be in the Woods for some weeks and everybody's happy. Some one asked Frank Kirk to come over tramp with a musical comedy come in. His reply was, "Nay, Nay."

The Florida Blossoms played the following towns week of Sept. 5: Florence, Darlington, Timmonsville, and all in the state of South Carolina, and played to good business. Sept. 12 we played Augusta, Ga., on the state of Georgia. The busy man of the Blossoms Ernest Isler, official announcer, street parade leader, cook, candy butcher and all around straight man through him. Mr. Isler has always had busy Mr. Isler, he always had time to greet you with a pleasant smile. While playing Augusta, Ga., I was surprised to meet Earl Pinkerton, and a very dear friend of mine. After the show we arranged things for a little reciprocity and enjoyed a very pleasant coming in recreation. Pinkerton, with his singing and dancing soubrette, wants to hear from Ada Booker and Henrietta Collier of the Silas Green Show. Pinkerton, with his Mussel singer, would like to hear from Mudge Scott of the Health Greater Shows. Willie Erdridge, formerly manager and owner of the Talk of the Town in Hartington, S.C., but kept a secret. He was afraid the gang would put the trade mark on him.

HOWARD STAR TACKLE WILL NOT RETURN
Miller Slated to Fill Thomas' Place
Washington, Sept. 25. The most serious set-back thus far to the coaching staff of Howard university is the loss of Hilry Thomas, star tackle of the 1926 machine. Thomas, who knew absolutely nothing about football in 1925, was developed into a capable guard at the close of that season.
Possessing all of the characteristics of a tackle, Coach Watson shifted to where he starred all season. The coach had fond anticipation of this husky youngster's performance this season, but unfortunately Thomas could be able to return to college this year.
Bob Miller is known nationally as an All-American guard, but Watson favored the candidate for Thomas's next bedtime. Miller has weight, aggressiveness, speed and an abundance of experience in the line. It remains only to develop him in the fine points of
Ex-Captain Vernon Smith and Captain Biff Martin are rendering valuable assistance to the coaches in the game, and they are very important. It appears that with Big Smith and Bob Miller, tackles, Rainey and Kelly, guards, and Captain Martin, center, the coaches are strong and are much more efficient than the line of the championship team of 1926. The coaches are by no means unstoppable. It is strong and Simpson is keenly felt. It is going to be a difficult task to replace these men. Although Simpson half-back of last season, will probably backfield the coaches are optimistic because of the brilliant showing of Evel Hinton, who, it is figured, will weaken the backfield combination.
Reserve backs are about as strong as in 1926, but reserve material in the backs is much more durable just now. The coaches are extremely anxious to get their hands an all material in the university so as to develop a second string strong team. The minor engagements this fall. The Howard schedule is long and hard and it is going to be a big problem to be the equal with five major engagements as follows: a session and the annual classic only 10 days after this series of tests.
Race Horse and Dog Get Tiger's Name
It has been said that initiation is the greatest flattery and if such is the case Tizers Flowers should feel just a point of himself. During the parade of the sport of kings' exponents of the sport of kings has leped under the clothesline to enough wins to cause the gentry who plunge on events many times and uneasy mounts the hill. Tizers has galloped over the green to fame and flick fortune and is still flirting with the pride of the turf. Of course he has been denounced as unspired the man made famous by the "Fighting beacon" and a greyhound rounds out the trio. Much has been said by man at vardon for the man who has been advanced for such that the feistiest animal that ever trod this green footwork is the greyhound. Anyway, it is quite the original Tizer Flowers to have two such successful merchants named after him. When Walk Miller first learned that his protege has annoyed another man, he conceived the idea of stugging a three-cornered race, for think not that the bounding bengal is not faster than love at first sight, his ever insinuated that he taught time to
However, when the southern firebrand learned the time in which the other "tigers" beezed around the other firebrand, they realized that they make it a handstand affair and shorten the distance, also that each entry be numbered and have said number painted on his back, some unfeeding person surreptitiously for this was so Walk could distinguish his "tiger" from the other two when they were hitting on one wheel coming down the home stretch, when they come off or not, no one can ever say the enemy wore any shoe leather chasing the "tiger" around the ring; they may wear off the sides of the soles from turning the corners so fast that the heels from going back on them.

Jacksonville, Fla., Sept. 25.—After three weeks of hard practice sessions the Tigers will open the season in March. The team will meet South Carolina State college for the first time in the history of the two schools. The state college guarders have a work record and this is the largest initial game that the Purple and Orange eleven has been scheduled to play in several years. With only a few days remaining in which the Tigers are rapidly rounding into shape and promise to be the best aggregation turned out since the days of Long and Daniels.

TUNNEY DOWN FOR COUNT OF NINE
THE MAYFIELD
Gene Tunney hits canvas in seventh round, giving the fans the biggest thrill of the evening in the world championship heavyweight bout at Soldiers field, Chicago, Thursday evening. Sept. 22. Dempsey's failure to go to a neutral corner delayed the count five seconds. It cost the former champ a possible victory as 145,000 looked on. While Tunney was down for the 14 seconds he was earning just $7,700.
Makey, Ryan and Dihigo in Homestead Grays Line-up; Meet Lincoln Giants Oct.1
---
With a record of 116 games won out of 142 played, the Homestead Grays of Pittsburgh, with Cunn Posey and Charlie Walker at their head, will once more invade the lair of the East on Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 1 and 2, when they meet John Lloyd's dangerous Lincoln Giants in a three-game series in Philadelphia and New York to decide for the present year at least the independent diamond championship of the country. Strengthened by the addition of Bizz Mackey, the "Babe Rubin" 300-pound catcher, who babe his "mound of hills," will face the Hildale fade, and by Diligio, the Cuban, rated by baseball experts as the greatest all-around ball player in the series is one of potential possibilities.
Arrayed in the line-up of the Grays appear the names of such stars as Washington, heralded by Pittsburgh district officials in the country; Mo Harris, second baseman; Riggs, formerly with Detroit, at shortstop, and Bobby Williams, who for years wore the spurs of Rube Foster's American League.

Pittsburgh, Pa., Sept. 23. — Honer Robertson, who learned the rudiments of the fight game in this city, but who later moved to Boston, moved a step nearer the middleweight championship tonight by knocking out Jack Elkhart, the Indian, after one minute and 50 seconds of fighting in the sixth round.
The battle was one of the most spectacular ever seen here. The show was staged by the Veterans of Foreign Wars. Ruderman won because he displayed the class of a champion. He had the speed of a lightweight.

a par with Gardner of the Linehous as two of the bestest center fielders in the game, and Graham, the most fastest man in baseball getting to first base, in right. Britt, in addition to pitching, is the best all-around player in the country. Xavier and Spearman take care of the catching. Posey has assembled a quintet of the greatest moundsters in the country, headed by Capt. Smoky Joe Williams, the captain of the team. Posey has Oscar Owens, the "troman man" team: "Lefty" Williams, Britt and Red Ryan, who, when he was with Hillel, was ranked as one of the first game Saturday will be played in Philadelphia, then both clubs will board a rattler for New York, where a double-header is needed for Protective Oval on Sunday.
The Grays won four straight games from the New Yorkers in the last thousandths of eager fans of the eastern metropolis, have been besieging Manager Keenan of the Lincoln's to give them a "natural". Interest in the game has been growing cozily, cozily tense and a crowd of mummoth proportions will doubtless be on hand to see the clubs go into action. An added incentive will be the appearance of Smoky Joe Williams on the team against the Lincoln's Sunday. The Grays' record shows that they have played every big semipro team in the league, and the pitcher is ever twice in western New York and West Virginia during the season. Many of these clubs were members of strong semipro leagues, and the pitcher is ever twice in one season, he is ripe for the plucking by big league scouts.
Clisby Tossed From Ring With J. Kilrain
Paseden, Cal. Sept. 23.—Neil Cliffby and Jake Kilrain, who are well aware of the art of the bottom, were last night arted from the ring because they were not trying their best when they were supposed to be giving the tans a fight. Punches of both disables were held up and an investigation was ordered by Captain Strelzering this morning. The bout lasted, only six of the scheduled 10 rounds.

punching power of a heavy, the accuracy of an A. E. F. sharpshooter, the gameness of a fighting game coch. Both boys fought curiously, but it was too much to demand of any human individual, even an Indian, to stand forever before a jarring left right, which never missed, their mark.
Outstanding the fight, however, was the gameness of Elkhard. He took a beating of the worst sort and only his nerve enabled him to rise after first knockdown in the fifth round. Few fighters in ring history could have stood what he did, and when he finally did fall for the fourth and fifth, he went down with the platinum crowd ringing hardly in his mind.

Attendance and Receipts Records Broken at Gene-Jack Fight at Chicago
Gene Tunney, the fighting ex-marine, received just $990,000 for his end of the purse for going through ten rounds in the main event on Tex Rickard's convention, called "the world's heavyweight boxing championship," at Soldier field, Chicago, on the night of Sept. 22. And, despite the fact that William Harrison Dempsey, as he is known about the boulevards of Hollywood, California, is alive
Hollywood, Calif., didn't win, although he had Gene down for the count of 14 seconds, the said Mr. Dempsey is richer by $437,500.
The official figures, according to the final audit of the auditing firm of Overlock, Burke & Co., was announced late Tuesday afternoon, as follows:
Attendance 145,000
Receipts $2,558,600
Mrs. Mabel Reinecke, collector of internal revenue at Chicago, made it known that the figures given out earlier were based on a federal department were based on the incomplete data dispatched at 7 o'clock the night of the fight. Those figures read, $2,658,600 and gate receipts $2,658,600. This caused a big future in the East.
Tunney collected just $7,700 for living on the floor 14 seconds, part of the time Jack Dempsey was making his comeback as provided in the Illinois state athletic commission's code of rules. Then Mr. Gene got up and laid away, is formed by the sporting event as the "competition cycle," for the balance of the round, which was one minute and 30 seconds. The man over in our circulation department, who is handy with a pencil and adopt in figures, has it that Gene earned in that one and one-half minutes just $49,500. Which goes to show us that the present-day pursues for world's heavyweight championship hours surpass all former predictions and has reached peak. A six-day bike racer will draw about $500 per night, and he rides in about three six-day races a year, and trains in a special, a special, cook, etc. They

Bluefield Eleven Swamps Knoxville College,38 to 0, in Opening Game of Season
Bluefield, W. Va., Sept. 24.—The Bluefield institute big blue team easily beat the Knoxville college eleven from Tennessee in the institute bowl, 38 to 0. With the same brilliance of attack, matched with a stuartborn defense, that was seen against Virginia Seminary last year, Coach Hurry Jefferson got going in taking the visitors into camp. The West Virginiaians had a little trouble getting started in the first half. They were continually in the back, getting going until they got going until a Knoxville back tried to handle a punt near the goal line which he fumbled and Gallon fell on the ball for the first score. Gallon kicked goal. The first half ended with the score of 7 to 0. Bluefield leading. The Bluefield team came back in the second half with a fast and furious attack and amassed five touchdowns. The team scored a Knoxville scoreless. After working the ball down the field by a fast attack of end runs, Cain. Bluefield's stellar quarter, raced for a touchdown in the final play which caught the defense mapping.
Cain also scored again on the same play for his total of two touchdowns. Graves, Bufield's big full, made the fourth score after a series of line plays that ended in a great game. He was removed from the first half after he was slightly dazed, but came back in the second to rip the opposing line to pieces. Freddie Buford scored his touchdown a pass when the old Cain Bufield backcheck began to work us of last season.

Halifax, N. S., Sept. 24—William Ewing, 21 years old, of Halifax, was killed, N. Mortimer of Vancouver was injured and another man was badly exploded on the Canadian merchant marine steamship Canadian Carrier of Halifax barbor today. He was well known in the provinces as Snowball Harry, a boxer of considerable reputation. The steamship was towed back to her dock.

Rickard to Hold Elim's in New York
New York, Sept. 26.—Tex Hickard, promoter of the record-smashing Tunney-Dempsey ring extravaganza arrived in New York today from the scene of the battle and declared he will launch another incarnation series in Madison Square Garden this winter. The logical plan for the next big "shot" at the champion, Gene Tunney.

"Jack Dempsey will enter the George Godfrey II if he fully decides he will fight again," said Rickard. "I haven't talked with Dempsey since the first time." Rickard's opinion the public would like to see Dempsey and Tunny clash for the third time. "It's a natural," he said. Rickard had his satisfaction over the outcome of the second Tunny-Dempsey fight. In discussing the men from whom Tunny's next opponent would be selected he named Jack Dempsey of Los Angeles; Jack Sharley of Boston; Paulo Uscunol of Spain; George Godfrey of Philadelphia; Jim Maloney of Boston; and a lot of new boys, not so well known, he added. Rickard took occasion to repudiate unsubstantiated stories and rumors of the Dempsey-Tunny fight being "in the bag." He said that was "the truth." He was also banded about at every big fight. "The Tunny-Dempsey fight was a square fight and there were two square boys in the ring," said Rick-
Austin, Tex., Sept. 29 — Samuel Huston college eleven is preparing for the grid tilt with Langston at Tulsa, Okla., Oct. 7. The eleven believes that his team will make it a fine showing this season and is working hard, while Assistant Conches Echols, Mohr and Wheates are using all means to measure the team's ability. A number of new punters and kickers are on deck this season. William "Smoke Pole" Harris is leading the team tackling, but other good ones follow.
used to run bike races werein the rider got nothing unless he stayed on the track six days without relief, and the purse for the winner was $1,300.
Prize fights of years ago would not have attracted more than an ordinary street crowd if the distance had been 25 to 45 rounds, and sometimes to 100. In those fights, they trained. They run 10 to 12 miles. There was no such thing as fear of being overtrained. Today the boxer works hard and can beat the 10 rounds without falling out. Then he finishes training by reading the life of Napoleon or "Nick Carter," according to the book. Look over the list of big pursues in the last decade, which we print in another column.
There wasn't an old-timer who did the Tunne or Dempsey to dreamland. It certainly must make Jack Johnson, Jim Corbett, Jim Jeffries and old Tom Sharkley sore when they see all the big pursues. The Johnson-Jeffries purse was $70,000, or nearly $700,000 less than what Tunne received.
But in the old days there wasn't a hard to come to Chicago and pull off the biggest sporting event in the country.

Drew played end as did Jeffries. Drew's kicking was responsible for the score. Captain Cailan was all over the field. He played both defensively and offensively. Cunningham and Thompson, as usual, were the strength of the line and Knoxville could not sustain a single shot. Conches Jefferson and Moore have expressed themselves as very satisfied with the team's showing. Knoxville is considered one of the best teams in the state and were rated to beat the locals.

HUCLES HAS HARD JOB TO MAKE A TEAM
9 Veterans Missing at Union
Richmond, Va., Sept. 29.—The Virginia Union university football team, runnersup to the champions of the Intercollegiate Athletic association, appears to have lost about 50 percent of last year's gridron aggregation.
Registration for the team, according to Coach Hucles, indicate that such brilliant stars as "Jim" Shields, halfback, Cotton, McFarland, Gardner, Smith, Derritt, Gross, Booker and Merritt have not reported and will not be available for the Panther eleven due to graduation and other causes.
The Union mentor, now facing the task of rebuilding his crippled "machine," is busy attempting to get together a combination which will be able to hold Union's banner in the great 1927 race.
The following men have reported for practice: Ervin, Caster, Thompson, Tobin, Washington, Gandy, Berry, Berry, Berry, Tolliver, Robinson, Breaux, Griffin, Allen, Heath, Armstead, Earle, Dillard, Brown, Jones, Hairston, Staves, Tynes, Anderson, Booth and Ruffin. The long-looking-forward clash between a, Bison and Lincoln this week will be on October 1 on Lincoln's gridiron on Oct. 5.
Tuskegee to Open Against Straight U
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Sept. 28. — The Tuskegee Tigers will take the field Saturday afternoon in the opening game of the 1927 season against Straight university of New Orleans, La.
Barring serious injury in practice, the Tuskegee eleven will line up in the prime of condition ready to start out on a campaign that has been predicted to be none too easy.
Tuskegee followers who have been led to believe that the Tiger will burst forth with a remarkable eleven, will be given the opportunity former teams, may be disappointed.
Head Coach Cleve L. Abbott, not usually given to pessimism, is rather optimistic and the prospects for this season. His opinion is based upon the dearth of material which was left over from the ever-victorious season, the lack of good men ample of the newcomers.
No one disagrees with the coaches that the caliber of players is below that of last year, but a great many are coaching on them to overcome the challenge. In weeks that they have been working on the squad, a team has been developed that seems to possess nearly as much power as any eleven that they have been playing in the past few cent years. At least there is a strain of confidence running through the Tiger camp that after all, this year's team will make a decent showing. The opening line-up of the Tuskegee eleven is fairly well fixed in the coaches minds. The backfield will be about the same as it was last fall. The forward will be the same. News seems up from the land of sugar cane that Straight, the Gulf coast champions for the last two years, is "ringing a powerful, well team to the Alumni Bowl with the national champions in their first defeat since October, 1923.
Italian to Ride in Six Day Race
Italian bicycle fans will be mighty pleased to hear that Franco Georgetti looked upon as the greatest all-around cyclist in the game, has accepted the terms of Paddy Harmon and will ride in Chicago's 16th international six-day bicycle race, which will be run in the Coliseum from Oct. 22 to 28. Georgetti is a sensational little rider and exceptionally popular with the American fans as well with his fellow countrymen. Georgetti won the last six-day race in Chicago with Carl Stockholm as his partner. Georgetti also won the 16th Square garden paired up with Begleigh McNairman, the "iron man" and world's greatest six-day rider. Georgetti has finished second in five six-day races, third in one and fourth twice. Georgetti, besides being a great six-day rider, is a brilliant sprinter. Georgetti has won the East he is a great bid to win the motor-paced championship of America. If he wins this title he will be the first foreign rider ever to win the motor-paced championship of America.

Fleeting Moments
Ike Dorgan
World Series
FLEETING moments should be the title of a book by William Harrison Dempsey, which beaten in his effort to upset ring history on the night of Sept. 22 in Chicago when he fought Gene Tunney and had knocked the champion to the floor for the count of 6.
The followers of the former champion will argue from now until Gene Tunney and had knocked the champion to the floor for the count of 6.
The followers of the former champion will argue from now until the end of time because he could have come up at the count of five.
This last argument isn't worth the breath that is wasted on it. Gene Tunney was not up when nine more were counted and no human is taking those kind of chances in losing a title which means plenty of money.
But Dempsey wasn't entitled to a knockout, according to the boxing rules. The state officials and these rules had gone over and over by both Dempsey and Tunnay. When Dave Barry, the referee, instructed both men before the fight to knock down, he was following out instructions given all referees prior to the fight by the Illinois state athletic commission. He would be uphold by those who know the rules. There was nothing else for him to do when Jack slammed Tunnay to the canvas but to wait for the bell to be a neutral corne to start the count. These five seconds it took Jack to move or to come to his senses were the fleeting moments. He was up to. That very rule found its way into the Illinois code because of the arguments following the Dempsey-Firpo fight in which Dempsey stood up over Firpo and knocked him down every time Firpo gave Barry cautioned Dempsey because he used the rabbit punch. Jack paid no heed to it. Barry could have disregarded the public would have been the loser.
The referee is always the goat in such instances. Jack's seconds of tunnies vows he is face to face Tunnies' vows would bound him without any harm, which violated another rule.
Dempsey isn't the old Dempsey any more. Ace finds that living has weakened him less and the same as they were a few years back.
Dempsey surprised some of his own followers by outboxing Tunney at the dyed-in-the-wool Tunney apprehended by outfighting Dempsey at times. So there you have it.
If Dempsey meets Tunney eleven hours before he begins to be able to beat him. Of course, Tunney will begin to go back some day, but Dempsey has gone back and the farther Tunney slips the farther away William Harrison ups.
WHEN it comes to handling publicity and the press, like Dorgan, Tex Rickard's publicity man, is the king bee. He has gathered about him a man who is the person of a Mr. Francis and others and any newspaper man who couldn't find a story six and seven times a day around the press headquarters ought to a pick and shovel to make a liner.
Johnny Hines, who starred last year as a backstop and whose hitting run, is out of the team in the running, is out of the team in the broken arm. Larry Brown will be used in most of the games as catcher. Jim Brown on first. Rogers and Davis the outfield. Sweatt in center. Davis the outfield. Nixon at third make up the Giants team. Foster, Harney, Powell, Curry, Miller and McDain are the pitchers and Gray, a sub-catcher and pinch hitter. Atlantic City has Lundy, manager and shortstop; Marcell, one of the greatest of third sackers; Lewis at Jones and Duncan are the catchers. Warner will most likely start the series at second. In the outfield, Farrell (when not pitching), Chaney White, Smith's pitching staff is composed of Red Grier, Lockhart, Roberts, Hubbard, Henderson and Farrell.
The series is for the best five out of the games and the consensus of opinion is that it will in seven or eight.

American Giants Cop Playoff From Birmingham Barons by Winning, 6 to 4 and 6 to 2
---
The American Giants walked off with the National league championship by taking Saturday's game, 6 to 4, and Sunday's contest, 6 to 2, from the Birmingham Black Barons. The Chicago team had won the first half. Birmingham had copped the second and a playoff for the best four out of seven games was necessary to determine which club should meet the Atlantic City Bacharachs. Eastern league champions.
In Saturday's game, the Giants were first to score. In their half of the first frame with two out, Davis poled one on one right field fence for one out off Poindexter.
In the third inning, after Foster had been called out on strikes, J. Brown singled to left and stole second. Malcher sacrificed Brown to third. Davis was purposefully walked and Brown and Davis engineered a double steal. Brown scoring.
Birmingham tied it up in their half of the fourth frame after one was out. Ward singled to left. P. Williams singled to left. Miller singled to left and Ward scored. Alexander batted for Jones and slammed a nasty grounder towards first, which Jim Brown knocked down, but got it too late to get P. Williams scoring.
Chicago proceeded to untie the knot in their half of the fourth. Russ doubled to left. Swett sacrificed. L. Brown singled to center, scoring Russ. Charlie Williams hit to Robbins, who had an easy double play in his hand, but who threw high to Miller and Miller was just able to get Larry in the middle, while P. Williams stole second, and P. Williams held the ball. Foster doubled. Jim Brown singled, scoring C. Williams and Foster. Jim Birmingham got one more. P. Williams strolled with two down. Then the visitors presented us with some big league stuff. On a hit-and-run play Williams halfway to the basket. Miller hit for two bases and Williams scored.
Sunday, Powell got off to a bad start and the Birmingham club tossed away golden opportunities in a couple advantage of the breaks.
After the first timing in which he yielded three hits in a row, Powell settled down and nary a hit did the team get until the third when Thompson, batting for Satchel, doubled.
In the second, third, fourth and fifth not a soul reached first. Neither Thompson, batting for Satchel, doubled.
In the inpper with one dead, Matchel singled to center. Palms beat out a hit to Russ. Russ tried to get his man at first and missed or close putt at the plate, hitting at second, beat it to third and Jim Brown's throw to Matcheler got him a foot off the bag. Jones singled to sending Palms to the plate. Palms made up for a double steal, but the Giants too smart. Palms broke from third and Powell shot the ball from the plate. Three hits and no runs.
Had the Jonesmen selected Satchel to start the game there might have been a different story to tell, but they listed about as long as a snowball would in the warmest place below.

third strike and was tossed out at first. Davis singled to left. Rogers singled to left. Williams was thrown out by Owens. Sweet singled to center, searing Davis and Rogers. Larry Brown tripped, searing Williams was called out on strikes. In the sixth, Owens walked. Satchel was safe on Jim Brown's error. Rogers pulled Parmell stole second and went to third when L. Brown's throw to Williams rolled to short center field. Owens stopped running and tried to score. Williams retrieved the elusive pill and shot it to Larry Brown, who almost knocked Parmell down tagging him in the home fifth, Malarche singled to right. Davis hit to Satchel, who threw to Miller, but the Ilaron was anywhere near the bag and Malarche was safe at second. Rogers fouted to Palms. Russ poked a roller to the plate with a run.

Harding and Capt. Ritchie Return to Wilberforce on Eve of Lincoln Game Oct.1
Wilberforce, Ohio, Sept. 29.—Lincoln university of Missouri and Wilberforce university will open the football season here Saturday afternoon. The stock of the green and gold warriors went sky high with the student body when it was learned that Captain Ritchie and Harding, two backfield stars, had returned this week. In the visitors' line-up will be 12 letter
men. Capt. Pick Robinson, who led the attack against Wilberforce in St. Louis last year when the Missouri eleven won, will lead another fast team Saturday, coached by Collins. Kind. Smith, Johnson, Wynn, McGofan, Green are with the Lincoln eleven and A. C. Lincoln, former end on Paul Quinn is one of their new finds. Wilberforce, however, isn't losing any sleep over the coming battle. Coaches Graves and Corruthers have whipped a team in shape that will be able to more than stop the Missouri lad. Sixty-nine candidates have reported daily for practice. To date, neither Graves nor Corruthers would give any inkling as to who would start.
Among the men who have showed up well are: Anderson, a flashy halfback from Pottsville, Pa., who weighs 153 pounds; Horn from Indianapolis, Manual Training school, who weighs 260 pounds and is out for guard; Tymes of Virginia state, a tuckle; Hudson from St. Paul's school in Virginia; John Giver from the school as Tymes; Clark, another big tuckle from the Indian-

Scotlandville, La. Sept. 29.—A great array of linemen and a wealth of backfield material gathered under the historic moss-covered oaks of Southern university for the initial week of football practice. The entire varsity line, composed of Johnson, McAllister, Washington, Harrison, Carroll, Emanuel, Strong and Broussard, returned intact. Three of last year's varsity ends, Davis, Cook and Anderson, are on hand.
To this formidable array of linemen has been added Aaron Tusko Singleton, former star Baton Rouge high center; Collaoree Smith, former 24th infantry guard; Albert Lewis, star end of Lincoln Normal. But even with this array of linemen Coach flolimes has put into force his usual bull driving system.

Added to the above list comes the smallest man on the eleven, Wilbur Edwards, formerly of Hyde Park high school, Chicago, who weighs 15 and is 5 foot 4 inches in height. Fay Young, on the Chicago Defender, says in his introduction of Edwards to Couch Graves "What he lacks in height and weight, he sure makes up in speed" and in practice he was made Mr. Young's word come true.
Figuring all in all, with plenty of beef and plenty of height, reach and speed, coupled with the fact that Havling and Hitchie are back queque more in the fold, Graves is saying nothing, neither is Coryruthens and Dr. Lackey, the university physician, just, grins and in the meantime the student body is planning a big bonfire and get-together meeting to pet things up. They haven't forgot the sting handed Willerforce last year and want to see their team emerge Saturday on the long end of a big score.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER OPENS
INSTITUTE IS POINTED HARD FOR HOWARD
West Virginians Feel Loss of Vets
Institute. W. Va.. Oct. 1: Although West Virginia institute feels keenly the loss of such stars as Gaiters, end; Hodges, captain and tackle; Turner, quarterback; Lowry, halfback, and Riggs, center, Coaches Hamblin and Goode feel that they will be able to replace these men without seriously weakening the team from the wealth of raw material they have. Skip Smith, star end of several years ago, has returned to school and is fighting Washington, a promising end, for Gaiters' place.
Lemons, a big 200-pound man from South Carolina, and one of Coach Goodle's proteges, is showing up well on the line. He dons a dart on guard, Steven, star tackle of last year, who was out of the game most of the season, seem assured of place on the line. Goodle, Marrion, and the rest are fighting hard for one of the ends.
At the present time Nash, Captain Branch, Boxdale and Hundley are showing up best, the more practice and experience Robinson and Farmer of last year's squad and Edwards of Morntown and Child of Montgomery. West Virginia is fortunate in securing Benny Goodle, formerly of Institute and Michigan State, as assistant coach. He is devoting a timely to life and an institute expects to have a fast, hard hittingclusive group of backs this year. Coach Humbled has always had a comeback, his entire life is worth his entire time to the line. He is emphasizing the fine points and offensive line drills. Institute plays Simmons and Kessler, Howard at Charleston Oct. 21,
Judging from last year Howard ought to whist; however, Coach Hamblin has a few tricks on his sleeve and gambling may be surprised that day.
Smith Must Rebuild New Hampton 11
BY JAMES B. CLARKE
Hampton Institute, Sept. 24—The Blue and White football squad of Hampton institute, under the mentorship of Coach Gideon E. S. Smith and Chas. H. Williams, held its first spring game hard and long—a kind of scrimmage that will make the aspirant that is inclined to be a bit weak hearted turn in his uniform and seek a form of sport where exertion isn't so green. Hampton football team look pretty prosperous. The unexpected return of George W. Davis, a member of the 1926 championship squad, and also an A-B-C. L. A. a selection of the Hampton well-wishers. Theodore Big Fellow Robinson of last year's championship squad also unexpectedly returned to defend his guard berth. Five old men will be in charge of the squad, as well as secondary and college in Lyonburgh on Oct. 8. The five are Bulldog Williams, Jazz Bryd, Widman Lee, Judy Davis and Big Fellow Robinson. There are a number of aspirants in the berth.
The hardest berth that it will be expected to till is the position of center. The center position has few aspirants. The center position has good man will have to be drifted from the squad of 59 to till the position.
An additional number of men reported for practice since the opening game. Herman Cox, Manuel H. Crockett, Gordon R. Davis, Ceil Morton, Samuel Gaines, Harold Gates, George W. Davis, Reginald Wilson, Junius Hammond, Oscar Hunter, Marshall Johnson, H. B. Jordan, Wm. E. Lee, Wm. S. Mann,孟德蒙 Lelone, Wm. Field Myers, Milford Miller, Alfred Moore, Theodore Johnson, Wesley Ruff, Gee Whitehurst and Wm. Lee.
Coach Smith is working the men musically hard for the opening game. Seminary has lost the brady quarter, Wheedle, Bumble Brown and a number of others because Coach Hur always produces a good team. The Lincoln in Baltimore on Oct. 15.
Plans are being perfected so that the resumption of football relations with Lincoln university will be a gay affair. The Hampton alumni and the students have been busy for months making plans for the entertainment of the rooters and friends of both schools. The last time that Lincoln played Hampton in Baltimore the team was on the short end of the score. This year the hope to reverse the story. Rimor has it that a number of governments have informed Mr. Cookidge that if he will kindly lead them the money to build up a real army they will have to cutting it down—New York Times.

SAM CARLINE BREAKS NECK IN SCRIMMAGE
New Orleans, Sept. 21—Samuel Carline, 20 years old, Luke Charles, La., student at Straight college, 2420 Canal St., is paralyzed from the chest down as a student suffered Wednesday afternoon while engaged in football practice. In tackling a dummy Carline struck his head on the ground, reminding students that he was taken to the Flint-Goodridge hospital, where an operation was performed Wednesday night to remove part of the broken neckbone. His condition Thursday was said to be improving.
BOB LAWSON A SENSATION SAYS CORBETT
BY JAMES J. CORBETT
Walk James, who produced Theodore Flowers, "the Georgia Tiger," has added another menagerie in the person of Bob Lawson, the "Alabama Bison." Lawson is not quite so sensational as is Flowers, but he has a more terrific punch. Where Flowers ships bulbs, unlike Lawson, blows. Lawson accomplishes victory with a sledge hammer drive either to the chin or the body. The management of Flowers, this Lawson youth has scored 17 straight knocks and achieved most of them within three rounds of fighting. Lawson to the New York public on the night that Flowers fought Jack Delaney. Lawson is built like a dusty Apollo. He sits 185 pounds, 185 inches, with legs built for well as balcony, with lightning-fast slowy arms and a rushing, tearing style that gladdens the heart of the person and wants to see action—and more action.
Lawson, who is 22, is still a bit crude in the art of defense, but there's much more crude about him that he can put into blows. The latter asset was demonstrated in his earliest days when he knocked out the entire six in a total of 10 rounds. Lawson took on Kid Norfolk not only for the first time but all around the ring in the first round. The "Keed" didn't fancy the way things were going in the second season and Lawson a few low punches and unequilified after repeated warnings. Whatever Lawson lacks in the fine touch, he has in the teaching of Flowers, who, under instructions from Miller, is schooling the "Alabama Bear" almost daily in the trick tricks of the prize ring warfare.
"In another two months," says Muller. "If jack Hickman, Tom Gibbons, Bill Murray, Willis, George Goffrey and some of the other star heavies want workouts—well, Bob Lawson will be ready for that, quite ready to bet his end at even money against any one of that group that when the knockout comes it will be the Lawson on the floor. For him the sum of the hit since Sam Langford's day."
Coach Law Has 30 Out for Prairie View Team
Prairie View, Tex. Sept. 22-Ten Prairie View warriors wearing vars. "F" and 30 other stallard lads answered Coach John Lawn's first call.
Those we will have returned are: Cory, Ewell, guard; A. Dawle, end; N. Davis, end; Mosely, guard; Bates, end; Ewell, guard; S. Stuckle, stinker, end. With nine line-up the Panthers will produce a formidable machine.
In the backfield is Coach James C. McLorries and halfback of Lincoln university. Before coming here Mr. McLorries coached at Atlanta university.
Talladega's Candidates in Practice
Talladega, Ala., Sept. 29.—Because of the early date of its first game, Coach Kindle called his candidates to duty just 18 days before its first game. On the first day 20 men reported. Coaches Kindle, Drewry and Rivers are developing a team that will have to stop. The battleship formation that will prove to be the best bet of the year, will be composed of none other than Cooper, Poole, Pearson and Edwards. The team will play last year's season will in an enviable record, will be in the fray to prove that he is in the leading quarterback, Pearson, who hails from Atlanta, will mull more questions to Mr. Brown machine. Edwards plays fullback. James and McCleane will promote the team from the wild card nets acts as the pivot man and captain, "Big Hump" Hamilton, Roberts, Doughlass and Pilgrim are mainstays from last year's squad, and the squad are showing up well.
Another interesting speculation is whether the girls will continue to be in school. I don't know whether in time they will take to wallpapering themselves. — Ohio T ace of

Bacharach Giants Here for Opening Game; Farrell Faces Foster in Duel of Southpaws
For the second time in succession the Atlantic City Bacharach Giants meet the American Giants of Chicago for the little world series championship. Saturday, either Mayor William Hale Thompson or Major Robert R. Jackson, alderman of the Third ward, will throw the first ball in the first game of the series which will be for the best five out of nine.
Alabama State With Season a Week off Has 3 Quarterbacks
Preceding that game a monster street parade will move from The Chicago Defender office with both teams taking part.
The cavalcade of automobiles will move north to 31st St. to Vernon Ave. south on Vernon Ave. to 35th St. west on 35th St. to State St. south on State St. to 43rd St. east on 43rd St. to Cottage Grove Ave. south on Cottage Grove Ave. to 45th St. and east on 45th St. to Indiana Ave. north to 39th St. and west to the ball park.
Dickie Baskett is chairman of the parade committee, with Walter Speedy and Sam Young acting as marshals.
The Atlantic City team won both halves of the Eastern league race, making a playoff unnecessary in that race. In the West the American Giants walked off with the first half but were nosed out in the second by the Birmingham Black Barons.
The playoff was decided Sunday when the Giants won the fourth game and prepared to meet the eastern inners.
Larry Brown will start behind the plate Saturday, with Willie Foster, of the Giants, and his pitching. The names of the other pitchers of the Giants are familiar to the Defender readers. They are: Jamey Harper, the spitballing King; Willie Peele, the pitching McDonald, with an underhand delivery which is batting, Rugby Curry and Milter, with it is well to remember, his safety in 29 straight games before coming to the Chicago team, and has been hitting well since. Darius is one of the pitchers on the club and is well filling the berth left vacant by Jelly Gardner.
Both fields cover a lot of territory in the outer garden and both can run bases well. Ock Lick, who manages the Bayer's ground, started out the original Bears in 1916, but left to play with Hilda in 1918. In 1920 he joined John Connors' New York Bacharachs, and remained with them
Montgomery, Ala., Sept. 24. —The first ten days of preseason practice for the Alabama State Normal Hornets closed today with a brisk signal drill. Three teams were in shape and responding to the directions of Arthur Walton. Edgar Moore and Nivens, all veteran quarterbacks. With a record attendance for the first week, the pre-school practice has been extended to alternate Captain Garrick Hardy, star guard; Beecher Routt, former guard at Talladega and star hurler for Alabama State in their first season; speedy halfback: Major Brown, end; Earl Anderson, center; Durall, end; Boyd, guard; Lundy, formerly of Selma university; Jowers and Robbins, tackles, and Ivory Johnson, tackle.
Additional interest is being aroused by the announcement that the Tallahassee team will be played in Cranston bowl, Montgomery's magnificent stadium. For three years the Tuskegee-Alaabama State team and these two games will bring the big three in Alabama football together in Cranston bowl on Nov. 4 and Dec. 14. Alabama State is not forgetting that they meet Atlanta U here on Oct. 14 after tackling Miles Memoore in the season's opener on Oct. 15.

until 1922, when he went back to the seashore to join the Badarachas, which club had been resurrected. In 1923 he captained the Bees under John Henry Lloyd and in 1928 assumed the reins as manager, and in one year gave Atlantic City an Eastern league championship. He lost the world series to the American Giants after a long-drawn-out struggle, the deciding game going to the Chicago team, 1 to 0. the lone tally coming in the last half of the ninth frame. Lundy plays short and plays a whale of a game at that position. He has a wonderful throwing arm, and he has the most dangerous hitter on the club. Oliver Marcel plays third and is considered one of the best third basemen of all times. He throws and hats right handed. For second baseman the Bees produce Wagner, a graduate of West Virginia College institute, whose play, while not sensational, is first water. Dalton plays first.
In the outfield Chaney White, formerly with the Hibalee and Washougal teams and the Reid and Brennan Smith will take their positions on the opening day.

Atlanta, Sept. 25.—Coach Harvey called his men together for the first practice Monday. At this time, he was in the middle of a game. Among these were representatives from leading high schools from all sections of the country. This made it a bit difficult to trouble to find a combination to in the first game, which is less than a week off. Owing to the absence of a coach, the men the task of selecting combinations is greater than in former years. A merry symp is being waged and the coach is trying to win. Munn, varsity 1928; Webster and Lewis, varsity 1928; and Pearson, a newcomer from Jackson college. Owens, varsity 1928; and end and backfield positions it is hard to read the coach's mind as to who will play any of the positions. But it is rather certain that player tackle; Forbes, fallback; Cook, guard; and Robinson, rollback will be in the fold. A few of the few men who have great possibilities. Among them are Wilson, Milnt, Mich.; Eberhart, Athens high; Jones, Port Worth, Texas, and Foster, Arkansas. Baptist college, Little Rock,
