Haley, self-styled cult, who is facing the penit charge brought against him by Ave., one of the members of Tabernacle, established in the way. The minister, who, according to some of his members, calls himself "the Christ" and some of his followers "his disciples," went on trial Monday, Dec. 5, before Judge Joseph B. David. The alleged crime with which the minister is charged is said by the prosecuting witness to have occurred in Haley's room after 2 a.m. Feb. 17, 1926. From the witness stand Tuesday Akols told a harrowing story of his experience with Haley while alone in the latter's room. He went there, he said, at the request of the priest, praying that the game one volunteer to stand the night with him. Became Unsensible Akols said Haby gave him something to drink drink grape juice. A few minutes later, the witness declared, he grew dizzy, then became unconscious. When he recovered the minister had committed the crime for which he is now on trial, Akols said, Haby, represent the Milton Smith and Nathan S Taylor, brands Akols charges as false. They were not brought until 15 months after the date of the alleged crime, when Akols swore out a warrant for the minister's arrest last April. Defense attorneys accuse Akols of being too aggressive to get revenge against the minister. They attempted to prove by defense witnesses that the minister, accompanied by several of his members, invaded Akols' apartment on the night of Feb. 6, 1826, and found him and a woman, Margaret Ritchie, together scantily clad. Says Everybody's Doing It The following Sunday the minister publicly reprimanded Akols, a trustee of the church and a minister of witnesses declared. This was done so often, they said, that Akols threatened the minister's life. Rainey C. Rutilin, 334S Vernon Ave., defense witness and one of the men who accompanied Haby on his run of Akols accused Akols of threatening the minister for exposing him and of declaring he would get even with Haby if he had to frame him. Asked about those alleged threats against the self-styled bishop, Akols denied being found unclead with Mrs. Richie in his apartment. ME MYERS given for the Hon. Robert S.

Appointed Administratrix Mrs. Willie Mae Flowers, widow, has been appointed temporary administrator by Judge T. H. Jefferies. According to May T. H. Holmes, wife of the president, Mrs. Holmes, the will of the angels, places the family at the mercy of Miller. In the presence of all the parties a safety vault at the Fulton National bank was opened this week, but no word was given out by persons involved as to its contents. Mrs. Holmes, mansion on Simpson Road, which was given to the widow by her husband in 126 will be at stake if the court does not reverse the clause in the will that makes the white manager administrator of the estate. It is estimated that the real property and furnishings are worth more than $15,000. However, it is estimated that Miller holdings of $15,000 on the property. As agreed by the late champion, the mortgage is to be paid in three installments of $5,000 each. The first note falls due next July. Mrs. Flowers, being cut off with less t' in $100 a month income by the $ has no possible means of rais. The money that the property owners hold does not willing to consider the property for more than $30,000, including the mortgage. Trust Fund for Daughter The will leaves Vera, a 9-year-old adopted daughter, a trust fund which consists of three-fourths of the reality holdings of the pugilist. It names Miller also her guardian and trustee. The fund was established in 1926 in order to protect the prizefighter from law suits by persons who believed that the court extended rich rights in case of the death of the child, the fund will revert back to Flowers' relatives, but not to the widow, it is written in the will. Mrs. Flowers was left of the personal belongings of her husband, including jewelry and a Lincoln automobile and $2,500 in Orchard Road from the Kills. Masons and a small policy with an insurance company, the window will receive no other money from the estate. The mother of the deceased fighter was left only a small live-room house on Simpson Road, valued at $3,500, and $1,000 in cash. Unless the probate court grants permission administratrix it will be a question as to what the future will hold for the family.

ABBOTT Goldsboro, N. C., Dec. 9—Unusual interest is being taken in the case of Gus Smith, an employee of the Empire Manufacturing company, who fell some days ago while engaged in his duties about the plant and sustained a broken neck. The company immediately ordered that every effort and comfort which the sanitarium provides be given Smith. An X-ray at the hospital revealed the fracture and Dr. William Spicer in the presence of several physicians and others performed the operation, said to be comparatively rare in surgical cases. He removed the broken vertebrae in such fashion as to reface the damage to the spinal cord, leaving the bone covering so that nature might rebuild the part. Two weeks have passed since the operation and Smith is well on the road to recovery.

NATIONAL EDITION PRESIDENT IN MESSAGE TO CONGRESS POINTS FINGER OF SCORN AT MOB RULERS By LOUIS R. LAUTIER Washington, D. C., Dec. 9.—President Coolidge praised the accomplishments of our Race, gave figures to show the extent of our government employment, approved of his management of the United States veterans hospital at Tuskegee, Ala., and recommended enactment of anti-lynching legislation in his message to congress delivered Tuesday. No other race has GARVEY SAILS WITH PLEDGE TO FIGHT ON Hundreds Plan to Join Him in Exile Kingston, Jamaica, Dec. 9.—What is said to have been the most wonderful demonstration ever held here was occasioned on the arrival of Marcus Garvey, who returned to Kingston as a deportee from the United States Wednesday. Bands greeted him at the harbor and he was escorted to Ward theater where addresses were delivered in his honor by many prominent speakers, including an alderman of the local government. New Orleans, Dec. 9.—"Good-by, America, farewell my people!" Speaking these words as he stood bareheaded in a driving rain, Marcus Garvey, promoter of the "Back to Africa" movement and founder of the Black Star Line, bade adieu to the nation which had ordered him deported to his native Jamaica on his release from the federal prison at Atlanta, where he served a term for using the United States mails for fraudulent purposes. Garvey left the United States at 12:15 noon Friday, Dec. 2. He sailed to the United States for stewardship Sagramaica, home for Oriental Canal Zone. There he will be transferred to another ship bound for Kingston, Jamaica. Five hundred of his followers crowded the wharves to say goodby. Men, women and children marched in single file during a steady downpour of rain on one of the coldest days of the year to press the hand of their leader and hear what he had to say. Given $10,000 A committee composed of officers of the Universal Negro Improvement association, of which Garvey is the head, came here from New York, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland and Pittsburgh to see him off. One of the leaders announced that members of the association had given Garvey $10,000 to defray expenses of the trip to Jamaica and for settling there. He also said that he would open offices in Jamaica, it was said. Half an hour before the ship sailed Garvey made an address from the upper deck of the Saramacca. He said: "I desire to convey to my supporters and friends and to the American public in general my heartfelt thanks for the great confidence they have shown in me at all times and especially during the periods of my illness and in my guard as a wonderful testimony of the knowledge they have of my innocence. "I leave America fully as happy as when I came, in that my relationship with my people was most pleasant and inspiring, and I shall work forever in their behalf. The program must be as important now as it ever was, and my entire life shall be devoted to the supreme cause. I sincerely believe that it is only by nationalizing the Negro and awakening him to the possibilities of himself that this universal problem can be solved. Leaves Message "To my white friends I desire to say that I shall always consider their interest in me as a cause for respecting everywhere and always the rights of their Race. "The program I represent is not hostile to the white race or any other race. All of us are to complete the freedom of the Negro economically and culturally and make him a full man. The intelligent white man has and will continue to indorse, my program." The report is current here that thousands of his followers throughout the country are preparing to follow Garvey into exile. According to the north it will be followed by army of men and women—physicians. (Continued on Page 4) . ____. Given $10,000 Leaves Message PRICE TEN CENTS ING ESSAGE TO POINTS FINGER AT MOB RULERS President Coolidge praised the gave figures to show the extent, approved of his management hospital at Tuskegee, Ala., and anti-lynching legislation in his Tuesday. No other race has accomplished as much in the same length of time, he told the congress. Our people, he said, have come up from slavery to be prominent in education, the professions, art, science, agriculture, banking and commerce. Fifty thousand are on the pay roll of the federal government, he declared. Their pay amounts to $50,000,000 a year. They have also received presidential appointments. They are in charge of the entire management and control of the Veterans hospital at Tuskegee, Ala., and their office, this institution has taken high rank. Notwithstanding their accomplishments, the president said, they are still victims of mob violence. They are especially the target of the "foul crime of lynching." He recommended to the congress that it enace any legislation it can under the Constitution to wipe out lynching. Only two races were singled out by the president for special mention in the legislation. We were; ours; the other was the American Indian. That portion of his message dealing with our Race is as follows: RACE ACCOMPLISHES MUCH History does not anywhere record so much progress in the same length of time as that which has been accomplished by the Negro race in the United States since the Emancipation proclamation. They have been in slavery to prominent in education professions, art, science, agriculture, banking and commerce. It is estimated that 50,000 of them are on the government pay rolls, drawing about 500,000,000 each year. They have been the recipients of presidential appointments, and their visibility has arisen as a sufficiently high place that they have been intrusted with the entire management and control of the great veterans hospital at Tuskegee, where their conduct has taken high rank. They have shown that they have been worthy of all the encouragement which they have received. Nevertheless, they are too often subjected to thoughtless and inconsiderate treatment, unworthy alike of the white or Colored races. They have especially been made the target of the foul crime of lynching. For several years these acts of unlawful violence had been diminishing. In the last year they saw them in an increase. Every principle of order anderty is opposed by this crime. The congress should enact any legislation it can under the Constitution to provide for its elimination. Country Enjoys Prosperity The president reported to the congress that "the state of the Union in general is good. The country is enjoying peace and prosperity. Wages are at their highest range. Employment is plentiful. "Some parts of agriculture and industry have lagged; some localities have suffered from storm and flood. But such losses have been absorbed without serious impact to our great economic structure. Government economy has resulted in a reduction of the national debt, making tax reduction possible. Further tax reduction should be mainly for the purpose of removing inequalities. "The secretary of the treasury has recommended a measure which would give us a much better national income of a taxation with out oppression produce sufficient revenue. It has my complete support." Our national defense should be continued on a scale to maintain peace with others. This country should not engage in the "old world policy of competitive armaments." Army aviation is being developed. Army needs to be better housed. The army must mariners, airplane carriers and a material addition to its force of cruisers. Merchant Marine a Failure Government operation of a merchant marine has proved a failure, the president advised the congress. He recommends that present vessels be kept in repair and disposed of as rapidly as possible. "A rapid growth is taking place in aeronautics," President Coolidge declared. Private enterprise interests in opening up extraction service in Mexico and Central and South America. National participation in providing good roads should be confined to trunk line systems, the president believes. Authority should be given by law to provide South American countries with engineering advisers for the construction of roads and bridges, just as this country has supplied them with military and naval advisers, the president recommended. Conditions in the Philippine Islands have been steadily improved, the president reported. Fair progress is being made in Porto Rico. President Coolidge, however, does not approve of giving the Porto Ricans authority to elect a governor.

I can only picture my early struggles out a rudder upon a tempestuous sea, or a member of a caravan upon a desert, searching for sparrows in a chick or aenchuck. I have not striven for drink alone for myself, but I wanted it for my person." From a small boy, I had nursed an ambition to own a newspaper. I could not understand when I heard that someone had commenced in five minutes, referring to Race papers. I asked my dad what they meant, and that from then on I commenced at the bottom and learn the business from the ground up; I struggled unequivocally against all odds. "Many positions were offered me, and I made the decision that people made me determine to not fall by the wayside. The greed for a dollar did not appear, but the illusion that the end of the rainbow is a pot of gold" for that was only a myth to Looked for Work "Some of the hardest years of my life have been spent by trying more," he said. "I was armed with an efficiency card as a first-class printer. I was only able to get a day's worth of against me. Foreigners were employed, but I, an American citizen, was denied their right. "I just I took advantage of every days work in any shop, I missed no opportunity to improve my knowledge, that God would give me strength to establish a business where I could open the doors, so I races, creeds, could sexes, so I women could work side by side. "I have endured many hardships and it yet, Would to God that I could get corporations to see as I see, and employ men, so I discrimination, prejudice and racial strife will be wiped out by good fellowship. I have been made aware of discrimination, I have built my plant my own way. You cannot plead for other doors of industry to be opened to you, open your own door to other races." "My business is my ship and I am the captain. I will be pleased. Please, no two ships have ever sailed the selfsame billows and that is why I am the captain. I steer me from the path taught me by boy compass of common sense, and I shall continue to sail the familiar waters."

This antonymous company is the murder of Michael A. Ford, 49 years old, 603 Woodland Ave., who hold up an attempt early that morning. With a meager description of the bandit furnished by a taxi driver the police are conducting a fiverrish man hunt in an attempt to capture the bandit. A number of suspects were arrested by Leuct. William Middleton, Sergis. Julius Glenn and Frank Stark, assigned to the case and working with the bureau squad. Among the suspects arrested was a young woman who was in the Angloas building at 3501 W. 10th St. Woman Questioned According to the police, she was seen talking to a man on the street, who was sitting in a chair for minutes before the hold-up. Weeping under the severe grilling of the police, the woman denied she was on duty at 3 a.m., the time Ford was killed. His skier is said to be about 25 years old. The police learned that the bandit approached the case with a drawn revolver, commanding the agent to "stick 'em up."

Ask Your Dealer for Latest Race Record Catalog Columbia Phonograph Company, 1819 Broadway, New York City Columbia NEW PROCESS RECORDS Made the New Way - Electrically Five-tone Recording - The Records without Scratch PART I—PAGE 6 LINWOOD'S LETTER Dear Friend Dave: On account of sickness the writer has been unable to write you in the last two weeks. But at this writing I am very much better and able to be on the job again. In Washington, D. C. the Whitmans and their gang had a very pleasant week at the Howard theater. Business was just fine. They played packed houses, matteens and nightclubs. Our orchestra could not work in the Howard theater, but the house orchestra under the personal guidance of Patron played the show during the engagement. Monday, Nov. 7, found the gang at the theater. The theatre built and again the orchestra could not work. This house is also on the National unfair list, and our capable band will make the band in and out. --- After the rumble on Sunday night we left for Atlantic City, where we opened a Savoy theater on Monroe Street and I found H. Tang on the boardwalk and the crowds were divided during the week. But the gang played to a large and appreciative crowd, and has been said that the Whitmans and gang will get theirs if Barnum and Ballys circus was in town. The gang met quite a few of their friends, and seemingly was a shiek around his home town because every time we saw him talking to some one from home it was a young lady. Did you catch on to his morning Johnson show? 6:30 o'clock at the New World cabaret. The writer met Henry Edmunds of Greenville, N. C., Johnnie Penn and Miss Mary Lee, also of Greenville, who showed that come in town and work one week and make debts that they cannot pay. And when they leave town they leave owing everybody. The people in this town are as scared as we are as they come as they are of a spot-ted leopard. The gang had for the week some of the best rooms in the Liberty Theater, and they were equipped hotels in the city. The orchestra received their checks from the A. F. of M. last week, which was strike pay for the Howard, Washinko, D. C., and the Royal, Baltimore, MD. Monday, Nov. 21, found us at the Dunbar theater, Philadelphia, Pa., preparing to play two weeks engagements at this writing time, and we are on our second and last week. Drake and Walker's show closed two weeks engagement at the Dunbar theater, Philadelphia, and present I am not in a position to give the name of the show at Gibson's Standard, but they say it is a good idea. When this is before the eyes of the readers of the W. G. W., the gang will be before the eyes of the patrons of the Lafayette theater, New York. Ethel Frey wants her friends to know that she is now in New York, and she is not sure where to come around to see Ethel because, if you do she will never forgive you for it. Will try and find time to hear the Richmond, Va., and let you know about them in my next letter. Having nothing else of interest to tell you, she will tell you Yourts really. Linwood H.

Before they can find their teacher, who is your teacher? They answer, and I am satisfied in many cases that their trouble is incorrect training in the rudimental elements of music when it comes to time, and I find numerous other faults that will tend to hamper the good performance. They keep on with poor teachers, get the habit and the results are crippled musicians. The column worth twice the price of the Chicago Defender and your articles are equal to the ones by Herbert Clarke, T. H. McCormick, and noted musicians of the opposite race.

Jameson P. Jameson M The effort is good and is just the beginning. This composition by J. P. Johnson will lend encouragement to our other composers to follow Mr. Johnson. there is something in the score that makes him the most of the spirituals. They are well treated in paraphrased form and well colored with variable harmonic figures in "Vamekraw" the melodies are soothing. They tell a sad story at times and in many passages they characterize joyfulness and high spirit. Many may wonder at the odd name of this piece, but it is a P. Johnson says in an autographed copy sent this writer that Yamekraw is a small race settlement on the outskirts of Savannah, Ga., and it was caught the idea, or his composition, in the composition. he says, his idea is to describe musically the religious fervor and the happy moods of the natives of this small settlement. His many respects have been successful. James P. Johnson, better known as "Jimmy" Johnson, has made quite a reputation in the song-composing well-known numbers as the "Charleston," "Ivy," "Alabama" Stomp, "Scoutin' Aroun," "Toddlin' Home," "Steppin' On," "Steppin' On," and others, but none of his compositions have the vast scope of his latest one, "Yamkraw." This writer is proud of one thing, that he composed by a Race artist and is published by a Race music publisher, Perry Bradford, who has made the top round of the ladder. A poor Chick-fil-A employee, New York, the city where they do things, forged to the front, and today is one of the most successful music publishers of the country. Every one of them has written a book of "Yamkraw" in the library. It is an excellent theme study and finger gymnastic. Just one more word to the grans: P. Johnson has led the way.

COURT ORDER HALTS ACTOR FROM ACQUIRING GOOD LOOKS Hollywood, Cal.-Louis Wolheim, who is conceded to own the toughest working face on the screen or stage, took a break from Barrymore's, "at least until Barrymore's new United Artists picture. Teamwork is completed. If the courts at Wolheim are not satisfied, Considine, Jr. have anything to say about it. The latest move in Hollywood's business is to change his facial map is a court order restraining Wolheim from undergoing a plastic operation. The court ordered that when Wolheim, who is playing the chief supporting role in Barrymore's Russian feature, made arrangements in the surgeon to have his nose, "beautiful." Considine, who is president of Feature Productions, Inc., underwent a series of filmed, heard of the plans and announced he would seek legal redress if necessary to prevent the operation. He also said he and because of his so-called 'hard-boiled' face make his services unique and distinctive. I do not intend to attend the operation, said the film executive, "Mr. Barrymce's picture, when completed, will represent one of the most important pictures in the tempest picture. 'Tempest' is just well started. Wohelm has one of the most important roles, and if his face suffers from a scorpion, he will go to great expense to have his scenes retaken. It would be the same as a boxer intentionally crippling on the eve of a championship bout." Wolheim, hearing of Considine's edict, replied: "It's my face and I'll be under the impression my homily mug is responsible for my success. Every creature in a picture, they pick me Personally, I believe I am an actor, and with my face remodeled, I will be under the rule of playing one type of role."

JAMES Dallas, Texas. The extensive advertised attraction, "7-11," combined with a playful performance at the Fair Park auditorium, Nov. 24 and Nov. 25, which was an opener for Colored Personals. The fun, funful and spacious auditorium, therefore much interest was centered in the area. No road show having played Dallas, white or Black, received the exploitation and advertisement so exuberant that the attendance was very poor, however, fair attendance was in evidence for the first night, Nov. 24, was advertised, "For white persona only" and after a week of heavy billing with the attendance that a performance "for Colored personals only" would be given the bill for the night, Nov. 24, the bill be issued for "For White Persons Only," Nov. 24, and across the street or on other posters or on the street. Nov. 24, "For Colored Persons Only." There were many angles to be considered in the conclusion of the results. Was it that the dancers dressed confused matters? Was it that the admission price of no events was higher in this section? Was it that the Colored populace protested against the white persons? Was it that the auditorium was located too far out? Was it that the sensation of the whites caused by prejudice of being on a Thanksgiving day to club dances and turkey dimmers? The writer could enumerate many other possible causes, but the above was not the case. It was regretted that the dancers did not attend the performance of this show, worth the price of admission, and then some. Speedy Smith held the audience throughout the en-suite. Mamie Smith and her gang, having played here at the Ella B. Moore show, gross on the entire week, but, Jack Goldberg informed, while paying us a visit, that he considered merging houses for one and two nighters, would put the combined attraction on a profitable basis.

It is regretted that John Mason was not seen only in the final enclosure here with the Mamie Smith Gang on their previous appearance. "Sugar Foot Sam from Alabama," he added, in addition to the men, exhibited one of the weakest minstrel performances seen in Dallas. This aggregation in addition to the men, exhibited a week's engagement at the Ella B. Moore theater. However, their flash street was the best seen in Dallas for some time. Also the costumes of the girls were all new, showy and ornate, the orchestra at least, some one to produce the show.

Arthur Jarret, flute and piccolo player and very popular in the show business, has been a troubled man. He has been with the Georgia Minstrels, Barnes' circus, Busby's Minstrels and the Huntington Theater. He was also a musician in the army during the World's war and had overseas service. He was a member of the Musicians Local 208, Chicago. He was forced to close his engagement on the Georgia Minstrels Musicians City, Mo. to live and receive medical attention.

Abie ARTHUR JABRET DIES JAZZLIPS SCORING HEAR YE FLOYD THE CHICAGO DEFENDER COAST DOPE BY BUDDY BROWN Hello, world. Here we are broadcasting from the Capitol theater, the Capitol building, and 26 for one week. Dike Johnson and Buddy Brown are doing fine. Just finishning our tour of the Capitol city trip and will play it all over again starting early in Murch. Met our little brother while we were living off here. Bill is the picture of health and says he feels any too well a few days ago, but is fine and dandy now. Of all the dumb people in the world, I am simply, I played Bojangles some pool the other night. Always thought I would now I know I'm not. "Be" convinced me by getting 200 balls while I made a run. "I'm running" the show at the Orpheum here this week. I hear that Tommy Hart's bounces are cleaning up geles. Just received a letter from my friend and former partner, Thurston. For more than two years, he will be with us again in February. Come Thurston, we will be glad to see you. The new Orpheum in Vancouver is one of the most recently opened on Nov. 7 and is doing most of the business in that city. The Strand, the Vancouver, Tahoe area, is the home of their share, but the bulk goes to the Orpheum. It is quite a relief for us at Orpheum, but found spring weather upon us in Calgary with the temperature 15 below, but found spring weather upon us with friends here. Mrs. McNabb of 725 Drake St. Wonderful rooms and wonderful, congenial people. Capitol, Winnipeg, this week. I suppose everyone is getting ready to greet the new Orpheum members of my regular correspondents in quite a while. Therefore, I can't say as to like, say as to this week as I would like to say. The Lincoln theater in Los Angeles, with Doc Stratina producing, has been a favorite of times to pack them in nightly. More power to them. This theater has been a home of contention ever since it opened in 1912. One has been practicing vandalism lately by entering this beautiful house and cutting up the flush on the wall. The fortress of Fort Scott be made to stop this, as it only reflects discredit upon the Race. Let reflections appreciate and accept the Lincoln as the Race's very own. Regards to all friends in and out of the profession, and to all those who will week. So long. As ever, wishing all good luck. Yours for success.

You need a job, so why get the big-head? There is always one something around him who goes for everybody who is afflicted with the "SWELLHEADTUS."

LETTER FROM THE COUNT Dear Dave: Just a letter from an old-time sportsman, "The Count," and possibly a drama, tragedy and pathetic story to unfold. The Alabama state fair was held in Montgomery the second week in November and drew the usual number of visitors, including the fair flowers and sportsmen in general. The writer also found himself present. Noticing in your column the other way around, you noticed the mattes in Camp Kibby, Montgomery, along the theatrical lines. It afforded me a chance to just what their requirements were and this is written with a two-fold purpose: first, to offer a little inside view of the conditions in this for South prison camp, and second, to assist these unfortunate boys to the profes- It was Saturday night and the Killen college club performed the show for 7:30. At 6:29 the producer, Johnnie Green, wrote a troupe song that we accustomed him to perform. My expectations were high and I had to house with its attendant stage regulations. Imagine my surprise however, being told that the show would be held on the rostrum at the bullduck stage, being told that the show would be even that even with the most vivid of impinations would make me be the place where he takes place there one hour later. However, shortly after, several encounters with an armful of stage accessories. Strings were hastily stretched across the hall and sheets, which I used with an armful of divinyl locks, were thrown across the string, pinned together and a curtain with two wings constructed within the string, consisted of that space, about four by five feet, lying in the "L" provided with a hand and a lookalike troupe. A box containing a half a dozen remnants of garments worn by the performers, seemed, and a couple of women's dresses were all the stage costumes noticeable. No stage property whatsoever, their music trick of making curtains, etc., I had doubts as to the outcome of the performance, and players and three musicians made up the personnel of the club. They borrowed a piano from the audience or could not afford themselves without a player. However a "thump" artist was procured but he neither tried or could play them with his guitars. In fact except in the ensemble the piano was more of an annoyance than of any actual musical instrument. To my surprise, at 7:20 the imminent jacked up the dining room and the curtain welt up or rather out, as it had to be stretched by two strong hands. The scene opened with the entire troupe sitting around in the usual room, with old gags, some character impersonations and the act was over. Simultaneously, over big with the intimate audiences. With some up-to-date songs, new gags and so on, costume and while could be produced with the talent present.

A few neurologists, some dialogues were presented which also were underdressed because of their lack of proper costuming and verbal material of the present age. A drama, “Confessions,” which I wrote in 2002, was presented. Outside of some character impersonations, especially the leading female, I also wrote a drama, locked, acted and sang the part, this act did not take. In fact too much was left to the imagination of an artist, a wiston. Five aces, all of which were different, but with only one setting, a table and a piano, together with the necessary oral “leading up” and explaining a drama in a drama, made this feature the only ship-stick, song and dance and a continual round of hilarious dialogue.

Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 9—(Special)—Clark university, which is coached by Sam Taylor, former end of Northwestern university. Evanston. Ill. will clash with Atlanta university for the championship of Georgia and Atlanta tomorrow afternoon at Spiller's park. Clark has the best chance in the history of the local civil war to annex her first victory over Coach Aiken's charges. Both teams have lost but one game this season. Clark, after heating Payne college of Augusta, 47 to 0, to start the 1927 season, was defeated by Tuskegee, 52 to 12, after making the Caddis extend themselves to win out. From then on Coach Taylor whipped his men into shape and the next game Clark beat Morris Brown, 32 to 0. Morehouse went down to defeat the following Saturday by a 38 to 0 score. In a practice game the soldier eleven from Fort Bennings was beaten 22 to 2. Alabama State held Clark to a 20 but little significance was learned that the crowd intimidated the Clark team. Clark bowled Tallagga over, 25 to 6, and then went to a 20 but little significance was learned that the crowd intimidated the Clark team. Clark bowled Tallagga over, 25 to 6, and then went to a 20 but little significance was learned that the crowd intimidated the Clark team. Last Saturday's game against Miles Memorial college was cancelled when the condition of the Clark gridiron was such that it required a delay due to the heavy three-day rain. Atlanta university started the season with a 61 to 0 triumph over Alabama State. 6 to 0. The game with Fisk ended in a scoreless tie. Atlanta beat Talladega, 13 to 7. The next victory for Alkena team was won by Atlanta, 6 to 0. Atlanta then beat Howard, 0 to 6. and on Thanksgiving day tied Morris Brown, 0 to 6, in a game that was protested by A. U.

U. If dear old London town and its historic rains and tides have anything to do with it, have dishout out here over the past week-end—we would hate to see it. All night last Thursday, all day Fri. August, Spillers park was ankle deep and about 90 puddles of water three feet in diameter and an inch deep standing on the surface. Specials didn't catch the worst kind of a cold we aren't able to understand unless some of their friends got them warmed up on the inside after the game was over on August 4th. About 49th straight win and Saturday he is going after Alabama State's scalp in an effort to make it a winner. Needless to say Tuskegee wins its fourth straight southern championship. Quite a record. Sure, they got the breaks last Friday, but they were able to make and take advantage of the win. A. U. had a line that well withstood the hammering of Stevenson Shanklin and the banding of King of Chief Alkén's crack landfills (and he has two sets of them) couldn't get any footing in the mud and slush and seconds in their uniforms on a dry field weren't even sent in the game. What wins a game one day won't win at the next was demonstrated Friday in Howard in Washington Mays was sent in to substitute for Wigkins. He thrilled the crowd with a 35-yard run whistle in five minutes. Wigkins when boo, Metherson, Wigkins and Stanley were making a drive down the field and cutting the Tiger line for Whitney in Mays for Wigkins. On the second play some one in the backfield field Tusketh recovered. Fate is a funny thing. You just can't beat it.

ABOUT one more week and the football season will see the curtain down on the 1927 season. It has been a bletc one. There have been some bulldogs that committee has rolled up thirms to some of the officials do not know how to interpret the rules. There will be some modifications of the rules again this season because they are not the same as before. We leave the goal posts just where they are, but we do hope they make the safety rule more explicit, also the rules concerning the "ball belongs in the net" and the "touch it where it bounds outside." The points in scoring have been satisfactory and we do not believe any changes to the rules we made.

In the game between Notre Dame and University of Southern California the much disputed question is whether the westerners had a safer team than the game and their team to the game or a touchback has brought out a lot of squawks not only from the constrists but from coaches. Coach Zupke of Illinois university has said that he believes it was a safety pure and simple. If the Notre Dame man intercepting the pass moved three steps after getting his hands on the ball he was tackled and the ball went into the end zone and out of the field of play it was none other than a safety. ONE more game—the civil war between Clark and Atlanta U. here and the Tusteegee-Alaabama State game at Montgomery, both on Saturday, wind up the Southeastern association. Believe it or not, the Defender has never told you that Tusteegee would play Bluefield no matter how willing the West Virginia school would be toward such a game. He is known just as he bearded a train for the institute that he would prime his men for the Montgomery game Saturday and after that he was through. Such a game would have been a win. A win Saturday will turn a perfect season. He is willing to turn his attention to basketball and other sports. In the meantime, Alken and Tayler have been in line for the coming game at Spillers Park. Should A. U. win there is a possibility of Alken acceptor a trip to Marshall, Texas, against Cubs for a game with Lansing during the Christmas holidays. Bodrentown Quintet Alphonso Neal Heads Bordentown, Texas, Nov. 29.—With five of last year's eight letter men in the team, the material on hand for development, basketball prospects at Bordentown manual training school are taking on exceedingly pleasant space for those who are not in the state vocational school. The last year produced a team that would in the state, so its follow-up school and early practice has set the squad on edge for another successful year, while the second received capital to take the place of McCann, who failed to return to school this fall. With Russ Hauser, the second guard to form a nucleus, there should be little difficulty in filling the remaining places on the team. Anderson and Doman are fathers of three players, while Hilton, a towering youth well over six feet, shapes up impressively at Clarke, Williams, Edwards, Hamilton and Coston also promise well.

Teams in Midwest League to Play See League to Play Soon With the approach of the opening game, the league, interest in the game is running high. There are at least four teams that must be rated as champions, and the teams are strong enough to guarantee plenty of competition and a possible upset, Detroit, Columbus, Pittsburgh, as the championship possibilities, but Muncie, Fort Wayne, Toledo and Willberforce Omegas are all strong and the right in the fight from the start. DeHart Hubbard, league commissioner, announces this Dayton team will be the league because of inability to obtain a floor for home games. This is reasonable, but the aggregation of ball towers and had been figured right in the championship fight. Big Five has been granted a membership in place of the Marathons.

Tate. A ground stand was erected at a cost of $25,000 and the horse was sold again equipment cost in the neighborhood of $25,000, making a total of about $38,600. Mr. Tate operated the park and the horse was sold for $25,000. The sale brought the sum of $12,000, but Mr. Tate had such unwavering faith in the park that he believed with a fair chance it would go over in a $1 million bid. He interested George R. Hooper, Cleveland's wealthy contractor, in purchasing the park. Mr. Hooper sold it to Mr. Yoltiz operated the park but two months and decided he wanted to sell and on Nov. 20, 1927, the park was again sold to Robert Smolik (white) for the sum of $1,000. LUCK!

The team will place in the conference standings and the Georgia state championship. It is hopelessly speculative to compare the two teams, although Clark Yet there is nothing in this, for did not the university have a betrayer, who have nothing to do with the outcome of this battle. Tradition says Atlanta will win. Has not the Crisman had only two touchdowns scored in 15 other successive occasions? Atlanta's stalwart line, which has had only two touchdowns scored in 15 other successive occasions, the backfield is also a unit line. It may say the Crisman will center its attack to the Clark line. Alken will send McPherson, Stanley, Williams, Mays and Wiggins on those players and Red Jones, Edwards and Wisebeck will skirt the wings. Against this wave Clark will send Beck, Chambers and Roberts, Du Prie, Linwood, Dukes, E. Baker, Cornelius and Shine.

(Special) -Playing on a field that was a sea of mud, ankle deep in places, thus handicapping the work of Atlanta university's fast backfield, the southeastern football championship was settled before 8,000 parisian rooters when Tuskegee institute's stockingless football team, sneared in mud and wet to their skins, vanquished A. U. in a close and well played game, 7 to 7. Both: won played game, 7 to 6. Both eleven battles under the worst conditions possible, a heavy downpour of rain falling from Wednesday night steadily all day Thursday and today, not letting up one moment and making it impossible at times to tell one player from the other, causing the game to be stopped time and again until the officials could wipe the ball off and making fumbles frequent. That's victory给Tuskegee 40 straight victories. Had Spillers field been dry and the playing conditions anything else but what they were, Atlanta L. would have given the Athers a trouble, which they right out to do. The crowd, which was drenched to their skins, refused to let up in its pent-up enthusiasm. A. H. has had thousands of well-wishers, who refused to give up hope until the final gun barked as the gray mist had enveloped the struggling eleven in a crowd. They yelled back at Tuskegee's loyal legion, who came over from Tuskegee, Montgomery, Birmingham and hundreds of other places. They yelled back in over the second quarter Tuskegee's student rooters throw away army coats, hats, umbrellas and what not, but still A. U. was delithe. The halves the only respect that Tuskegee followers paid to the local team was when the Tuskegee band of 35 pieces formed the letter "U" for the hymn as the crowd stood with heads bared. Following a few snappy military maneuvers under the leadership of Capt. Drye, they again faced the team for what that looked like. A. H. was principal and Mrs. Moton, with their daughter, who sponsor for the team, joined in the singing. Other than that Tuskegee had blood on their eyes for anything that looked like A. H. had on Crimson and Gray colors. Shanklin ran off with honors for Tuskegee. He stole Stevenson's jacket and down the game. Stevenson added the extra point by a nice place kick. The beginning of the second quarter was a three-seven yards from the goal. One five-yard gain and Shanklin was given the ball. He caught Williams of A. Tuskegee. Stevenson hit the left side of Atlanta's line, and Shanklin slipped through a two-foot hole between his left sleeve and guard to make the play. The rest of the game was a nip and tuck injury. Once McPherson got loose, but slipped and fell in the mud, he missed passes, and so was Atlanta ever watchful about Tuskegee's overhead game. In the last quarter, after Tuskegee got within scoring distance, McPherson missed a place kick once and Whedee knocked a pass down over the goal line for a touchback, right out of the hands of a Tiger receiver. Tuskegee in the opening quarter, Tuskegee won the toss and elected to kick. On the second play Wiggins punted and Stevenson fumbled. John Clay hit the ball and returned the punt. Both sides relied on kicking. A. U. found Tuskegee's line giving way and McPherson Stanley and Wiggins ripped large chunks of the ball. Tuskegee the latter midrived, Tuskegee found A. U's front wall harder than Georgia granite, and kicked. A. U. fumbled and Tuskegee recovered. Tuskegee couldn't gain possession. Jumble placed A. U. in a dangerous position and Wiggins kicked from behind his own goal. Tuskegee played the wet ball was hard to handle and Tuskegee lost some yardage trying to get started in the mud. Tuskegee kicked the ball over four-yard mark. Wiggins booted it back and from there Tuskegee started the march that found them in scoring distance near the end of the game. The game was clearly fought, although there were plenty of thrilling plays and hard tuckles to excite the crowd. The rain that fell in torrents kept away about five thousand white people who came in for the Georgia Georgia Tech game in the battle. They preferred to spend the cold, wet afternoon in the hotels. For sucessgee Shanklin, Stevenson, Pee Shanklin, Moore starred. I. Robinson's work at end was commendable. Balph Robinson at center for A. U. Pheerson, Stanley, Wiggins and Wheedoe featured. Wiggins made the longest gain of the game. McPheron, Stanley, Wiggins and Wheedoe featured. Wiggins made the longest gain of the game. McPheron, Stanley, Wiggins and Wheedoe featured, while Stanley was a bear when given the ball. As stated earlier, Shanklin stole Stevenson's thunk, but Stevenson was there just the same. A substitution in the second quarter hampered Atlanta. Mays, who at Howard was substituted for Wiggins and who pulled off a 55-yard run to touchdown that won the game, was sent in after Atlanta had started a successful drive after Tuskegee had scored. Wiggins was seen trying his hand on the field and reported to Napoleon Rivers of Tuskegee, who was refereeing the game. Wiggins was going good at the time he went on. On Monday, Tuskegee punched and Tuskegee recovered and kicked the ball back into A. U's territory. A and T Now Champions of the C.I.A.A. Greenbush, N. C. Dec. 7—Having completed one of the most successful football seasons in her history, A. & T. college holds the distinction of being the champion of the Intercollegiate Athletic association. The almost phenomenal success of the Agile eleven is due to a powerful line, a speedy and versatile backfield, coupled with efficient and conscientious coaching on the part of Mr. Byram and Mr. Jewell. Hester, this year's captain and left end, is one of the most valuable defensive men on the squad. Streater, the other end, has distinguished himself repeatedly this season by catching long and difficult passes. Coles, Korenegy, Miller, W. Lane and Wilson, who is also a formidable back, all regular linesmen, have been the most important in the mighty center, whose skillful blocking accounted in great measure for A. & T's victory over Hampton. For two years, is especially dangerous because of his speed and steadiness. In the backfield "Little Bit" Henderson at quarter assures excitement for a substantial gain. Henderson and Miller, who graduate this year, have played their last game for A. & T. Faulk, the right halfback, is "Bus" Coleman, another all-American association choice, can kick, run and pass with equal facility. Finally comes Lane, stellar fullback, who line out with greatness and tackling are remarkable. It was this team, supported by able substitutes, that came through the 1927 season with a record of seven assists in the association games. The powerful Bluefield aggregation was the only one which defeated the Carolina champions. The summary shows that A. & T, pled up 168 points to her opponents' 56, a ratio of 3 to 1. **Summary** A. & T... 20 Lincoln U.... 0 A. & T... 26 Vaughn V.X.L. 0 A. & T... 7 Bluefield Institute... 27 A. & T... 28 N.

The best he could do in ten rounds was to get a draw. For the unsatisfactory showing the fighter made, the Illinois athletic commission agreed Friday morning to fine each and bar them from the ring. Saguero received as his punishment a fine of $750 and a 30-day suspension, while Burns was fined $1,000. Saguero was not the fighter he was several weeks ago when he succeeded in disposing of Ross. Saguero, Earth's first fighter, to be something lacking and it wasn't long before fans realized it. As early as the sixth round spectators began to stump their feet and boo Saguero, all of this and more did not wake him up. Three times members of the boxing commission warned him to Saguero did not land a punch during the whole fight. He did, however, hold his powerful left in readiness. Burns had been told in his corpse in the 1980s and the Texan fought along safety lines. Burns ran into clinches, preventing Saguero from getting set to deliver his deadly left hand uppercut two rounds. In the third round fans came to their feet when they saw Saguero take a swing at Burns and then land on the floor. The Cuban hit his feet. He had tripped and fell. In the semiwindup of ten rounds Lope Tenero, the Filipino flash, gave Frank Schaffer of the South side a In the opening bout of eight rounds Bill Hall of the South side was given the first round, known in boxing circles as Snowflake, 150-pounder.

Although the athletic board of control of the Chicago board of education refused to rule their football team champions of the south section in the race for the city title several weeks ago, coaches and supporter Philips are not discouraged and have turned their eyes toward business with hopes of bringing back to the South side institution a shield emblematic of the Public School league champions. team champions of the south section in the race for the city title several weeks ago, coaches and students at Wendell Phillips High School discouraged and have turned their eyes toward bass with hopes of bringing host to the South side institution a shield emblematic of the Public School league championship. Prospects for a title in both heavyweight and lightweight if results in presession games mean anything. Both Phillips teams have victorious over the alumni big fives and cages representing the Medill high school. The teams are undergoing strenuous training every evening at the gymnasium and will be in the pink of condition when the season opens. Phillips' first game will be against Tech Jan. 6 at the latter's Skip. When Coach J. N. Harris issued his first call for players early in November, more than 75 youngsters re-enlisted to 30 players. Eighteen of this number are on the pony team, while the remainder are heavies. The lightweight five are all veterans headed by Albert Pullins, a junior forward. He is about 119 pounds, but is the fastest youngster on the team. He is playing forward. Gray at left forward. Carry at right guard. Unparer at left guard. Carry at right forward. Carry up the combination that Coach Harris hopes will bring back a title to the South side. On the heavyweight team there is a back of veterans, but the boys are not the only ones. Brys will pilot the quintet and will occupy one forward position, while Lefty Walker will be at the other forward. Both Brys and Walker are dangerous under the basket. Captain Byas was catcher and Walker was pitcher on this year's baseball team, which played Lane Johnson in at guard and Warren Jackson, center, a lanky youth from Crane Tech, seem to have their positions cinched. Coach Harris expects to strengthen his two teams later on in the season. He will play players from junior high school will be eligible next semester. Besides the regular league games, plans are under way to have a home and home game with the crack Ceneca and Philadelphia, 1st. The Chicagoans will play at Louisville Jan. 3 and at Indianapolis Feb. 18. The Kentucky team will journey to Chicago on Linecoln's birthday for a game at Redmond, 1st.

The alumni had on its team Lester Johnson, former Phillips and Howard university the University of Illinois; Gibbs and Higgins. At the half time the school five lead 19 to 8, but the alumni rallied and at the end of the game trailed by 22 to 28. Reuben Spears, former star player at Phillips and Howard university, whose leg was amputated, several times, after an auto accident, was given a rousing cheer when he went on the floor in an alumni suit. The play was so intense that he chance to get a hold of the ball.

This was the first time the Soilers played at Paterson field, since the Hornets' season will be closed next Saturday when they engage the Tuskegee and for big Alabama action at Cramton howl. Three full teams, including the Baby Hornets, were used by Coaches Jacobs and Lewis, despite the fact that the Florida players played the second game of the game, Captain Anderson, E. Campbell and Robert Johnson did not don tugs, but their mates played a whale of a game to make sure one lost and one tied, as a deserving record with which to face Tuskegee in the crucial test on Alabama State's home-come-day next Saturday. Of the two touchdowns scored in the second quarter by the Hornets came when Maxwell Jones blocked a Florida attempted punt and recovered. The second marker came soon thereafter when Briggs fumbled a high state normal punt from Moore and Moore was able within three plays to hold Hell over the extra point. The last two touchdowns came within the last 10 minutes, with the Baby Horneta defending the Old Gold Horneta both north and south to drive down the field for the first marker, while Frank Lewis, fast halfback of Portsmouth, Ohio, fame, come into his own by returning a Florida punt 95 yards within the second seconds of the game for the final score. Quarterback Bragg was the whole show for Florida with his triple touchdowns for Florida and made the several first downs credited to the visitors. Mahone, Blue Rolfe, Cunningham and Whitehead seemed to have stunned the Jackson team. With several scoring opportunities, the Floridians did not have the needed punch at the crucial periods.

PART 1—PAGE 9 7-0 FISK LOSES 14-13 GAME TO MOREHOUSE Tennessee Team Gets Bad Breaks By JOHN DAVIS Nashville. Tenn. Dec. $-$Lady Luck proved unkind to the Fisk Bulldogs, who lost a closely contested game with Morehouse. 14 to 13. Playing with a badly crippled team, the Fisk eleven suffered the worst of a number of bad breaks, which were all made the most of by Coach Harvey's Maroon Tigers. In the first quarter the running of Davis and Gee twice brought the ball within Morehouse's 10-yard line, but on each occasion the Tiger backfield broke up passes that seemed sure touchdowns. In the second quarter the Maroon eleven, through brilliant running of Saunders and Forbes, curved to Saunders and Bell to Bell brought the ball to the nine-yard line and an off-tackle play took the ball to within four yards of Saunders and Bell to Bell prevented the ball from going over, but on the fourth down Saunders crashed through for a touchdown pass from Saunders to Edmonson. Early in the second half Edmonson intercepted a pass from Vost to Thornhill and ran 35 yards for a touchdown, the extra might be an end run. Two touchdowns behind, the Bulldogs rallied and showed remarkable success with 25 and 35 yards. A pass from Gee to Thornhill netted 14 yards. A long pass from Thornhill to Brooks netted 15 yards. Gee made a point after goal in an end run in the fourth quarter a 25-yard run by Gee again paved the way for a touchdown. The defense interference, Peterson proved to be another Stevenson and ran right through Morehouse's line 65 yards for a score. The score was now 14 to 12 and the Fisk stands went wild. Three times the Bulldogs broke through the line and scored. Their possession were unable to gain through the Morehouse line. Twice long passes failed.
