DROP TITLE 'NEGROES'; TO BE KNOWN AS AMERICANS FOUR HELD IN BANK CRASH ALICE AND KIP IN COURT AGAIN CONFESSIONS ADMIT FUNDS Tag' That Designated Race Discarded "America first and American only" has been included in the resolution that was recently adopted by a large number of prominent civic, social and church organizations in their war to blot out the color line during 1928. Unluckily, it was announced by the sponsors of the extraordinary resolution of assent of people seemingly forget that they are Americans and instead assume that they are just "Negroes." Some persons even go so far as to assert that the war is hoped by leaders of the active working committee that these false theories will be destroyed through a concentrated attack. Also notion that most people live under that they are something different from others, they easily acquire an inferior complex. The authority is a tremendous task which the social agencies have undertaken. Word Without Meaning That the term "Negro" has no meaning is contended by the leaders of this movement. In a part of a release they quote *Glance Damnow* on the American law that scored the term "Negro" as something that whites used to insult a particular group of Americans. In commenting on the assertion made by the plan for the Sweet defense fund, the traces the geographies of the "Negro." For a long number of years before the Dutch traders conceived of the idea to commercialize on human beings the sweet defense fund, a peculiar regious type in different parts of interior Africa known as the "Negro." This creed came about something like the old Egyptian myth of Olympus and the around the river was black and black, black appearance, the natives believed that the river was the home of a god *Black*. **Traders Coin Word** The traders captured most of the followers of this faith, known as "Negre," because they demonstrated greater physical strength and exhibited a greater degree of intellect than black, black would become dangerous if they continued to follow their religious faith, the traders referred to the word "Negre" as meaning black slave, and this way it became applied to designate a race rather than a religion. Since the abolition of slavery, the term has been refined by the whites to mean a servant class. By unorganizations have continued "to persuage the idea that "Negro" is something degrading and inferior. Whenever there is a mysterious murder of a horrible nature, the first report that appears in the majority of the daily journals is "Burly Negro Bough." False Meaning Circulated This word having been so definite- ly placed on the backs of a particular group of Americans so as to retard their rapid advancement.

A dramatic chapter in the political history of Cleveland was closed Monday night when the oath of office was administered to three members of the Race to take seats in the city council. Long before the time for the councilmen to be sworn in for their term of office several hundred interested spectators crowded into the large chamber. As Attorney Thomas Fleming Harvey Thomas being, taking his seat for the seventh consecutive term, entered the room the quietness of the place was changed into an uproar by cheers. Dr. E. J. Gregg and Attorney Clayborne George, who were elected for the first time, were also given a big ovation as they made their appearance. The oath of office was administered by City Clerk Fred Thomas. Another outstanding feature of the second meeting, the year was the interest elected in the ducacy of Attorney Harry E. Davis, member of the legislature, for a seat on the civil service commission. Davis was elected to the commission, and the clerk 12 Republicans and one independent voted for him. Dr. Gregg Traders Coin Word (Continued on Page 2) . Minister and Wife Die in Mystery Case Is a Puzzle to the St. Louis Police St. Louis, Mo., Jan. 6. There has been no mystery in recent years here that has caused so much concern as the death of Rev. C. W. Newton, a prelinger elder of the A. M. E. church, and his wife, Mrs. Marie Newton, who were found dead in their home at 2815 Cook Ave. last Wednesday morning. Judging from evidence that the police have been able to gather, the couple had been dead since Christmas day. The condition in which they were found was unusual. Found in Kitchen Attired in their dress clothes, the middle-aged woman lying in the kitchen near the stove. The house was securely fastened at both the front and back doors. After friends became alarmed at their failure to find the body, they found personal calls, the police were notified. Breaking in the front door, the police arrived and found Newton was said to have been in his 75th year and Mrs. Newton was 25 years his junior. The house was arranged for a Christmas celebration. According to Mrs. E. Young, associated with the local Y. W. C. A., she and her daughter were invited to the Christmas day. At the scheduled time she said they arrived at the Cook Ave. residence. Mrs. Young said she rang the bell and knocked, but no response. Several days later Mrs. Young stated that she went back to the residence to discern if they were there. Again, nothing to get a response, she turned the police and asked them to investigate. Very little light has been thrown on the mysterious situation in spite of the coroner's hearing. To allow the coroner to examine the bodies, the hearing was continued. Because of the condition of the house and the manner in which the bodies were found, there is a sample a mystery. For a long number of years Rev Newton had been active in the ministry. He was regarded as a pioneer of the role along with the late Prof. Richard Cole, who also devoted number of years to the ministry. The Newtons were highly respected and admired by hundreds of St. Loussain, for over ten years they had made their home comfortable residence in Cook Ave, one of the most beautiful sections in the West end of the city. SEATING OF AND COUNCILMEN dramatic chapter in the political Monday night when the oath three members of the Race to Long before the time for the term of office several hundred into the large chamber. was the only one of the three Race councilmen that did not cast his vote. He instead seconded the nomination vote for J. Orilkowski (white). Democrat. The announcement of the election of Davis was received with raptuous enthusiasm, and a praise upon Maurice Maschke, veteran leader of the party, for maneuvering, plans for the election of the governor, and the service served four terms in the state legislature, being elected from an exclusively white district. The election of three councillors and the commissioner, it is believed the Race is becoming a big political factor in this city. It will be remembered that during the recent election of the governor also a candidate for city magistrate. Each of the successful councillors have been receiving telegraphs and mail congratulations from all over the country.

Ruders ASKS LOWDEN TO ANSWER TO QUERIES ON PORTERS' WAGE In an open letter to Ex-Governor Frank O. Lowden of Illinois, who is now being groomed by his political followers for the Republican presidential nomination, A. Philip Randolph, general organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, requests him to answer some important questions with regards to the present status of the Pullman porters. Mr. Lowden is the son-in-law of the late George Pullman and wields a tremendous influence in the affairs of the Pullman company, Mr. Randolph points out. Mr. Randolph's letter is as follows: Dear Sir: Since you are being consulted by the press in the case as one of the outstanding candidates for the nomination of president, and since Afro-Americans have a justified concern in the attitude of president in various social, economic, political and racial questions, I wish respectfully, herewith, to inquire as to your position upon a question of industrial-racial import to the Negro. Interested in Farmers Interested in Farmers In our speeches time to time, you may interest in the well-being of the farmers, on the grounds that they do not receive a fair return on their labor or a fair price for their product, or you prefer to understand that socially and economically justifiable. As a remedy for the farmers' problems, you have vigorously urged and advocated organization of, by and for the farmers, formulated your farmers' program upon your observation and study of the agricultural situation in the Scandinavian countries of Europe. Be it farmers' co-operative producers' and consumers' organizations, is sound economics. As a political-economic device for the immediate adjustment of the farmers' economicills, you have basked in the success of the bill, which passed by congress, was vetoed by the president. For the agricultural malades of the farmers, your diagnosis, prognosis, basis of merit and sincerity. Obviously, the farmers may reasonably, and from the point of view of enlightened self-interest, seriously consider your candidacy for president.

J., Jan. 6—Three youths were killed Christmas day when their automobile was struck by a train at a crossing in East Riverton. The boys were Charles Robinson. 5 years old: William Robinson. 13, 14, and Hill. 11, all of East Riverton. Robinson was driving the car, which was first struck by a southbound express and hurled in the path of a northbound train, which osseoed into a field. Robinson was hit and killed, and companions were dead when they reached a hospital. The crossing was said by the authorities to have been unprotected. Kentucky Militia Called To Prevent Lynching Pikoville, Ky. Dec. 30—Kentucky national guardsmen here were ordered last Sunday night to proceed to Wolfpit to prevent possible mob violence in the event of the capture of Homer Mitchell, 42, alleged slayer of Malcolm Sloane (white) miner. More than five hundred whites are searching for Mitchell. He was believed to have taken refuge in a mine near Wolfpit, but has not been captured. Houston Davis, said to have been with Mitchell at the time of the shooting, was arrested and held at Wolfpit. Davis was captured in the attic of his home after an all-day shooting. The shooting is said to have followed a heated argument between the two men. Bail Granted J. B. Osby in Fraud Charge James B. Osby, 5047 Champlin Ave, real estate operator well-known in Springfield, Ill., and Chicago, who was arrested two weeks ago on conspiracy charges preferred by Mrs. Adelhale H. Tolbert, wealthy white businessman, on Thursday by Chief Justice William Y. Brethers of the criminal court. Osby's bond of $10,000 was reduced to $3,500 by Judge Brothers after he had reviewed the evidence against the defendant. The latter was interviewed in the room while his daughter, Mrs. Eutalia Proctor, arranged for the signing of the bond. Mrs. Proctor, former Red Bed and nursing home worker in the social science department at Fisk university, hurried to Chicago from her duties in Nashville. Tenn., to aid her father. Osby and her father asserted that emotional disclosures will be aired when the case goes to trial. The charge against Osby grew out of a sale in Springfield of certain property owned by Mrs. Tolbert, he asserted. The property was bought by John K. Jelley, reputed millionaire in Grand Forks, N. D. in August, 1928. George Mahone (white) of Chicago owned the property and by Mrs. Tolbert charged the three with conspiring to defraud her after she discovered the first mortgage notes of $35,000 were not as they had been represented to be paid, giving them $15,000 cash to meet the purchase price of $50,000 wanted for the property in a trade deal, Osby said. Warrants for Kelley and Mahone were some time ago. Kelley fought extradition and the governor of North Dakota refused to sign the warrant, according to Osby. The latter has already been indicted on the conspiracy charge and will go before judge Otto Kerner on Jan. 9. FINDS DEAD INFANT While walking through the alley in the rear of 3632 Calumet Ave. Tuesday morning, William H. Smith, a baby in a garbage can, the infant was wrapped in newspaper and appeared to have been lying in the can several hours before it was discharged. It was turned over to the police. MRS. MAJORS TAKES DOCTOR BEFORE COURT Separate Maintenance Asked in Suit After enjoying a period of domestic peace and quiet in his home for one year and six months, Dr. Monroe A. Majors, 4450 Prairie Ave., principal in one of the most hectic divorce suits ever tried in Cook county, was disgusted again into the legal illicit light when his third wife, Mrs. Bertha Majors, filed a suit Wednesday of this week in the superior court against him for separate maintenance. The brief period of rest enjoyed by the doctor followed a stormy scene staged in his home between himself and the third Mrs. Majors on a nightly basis. Mrs. Majors being taken to Wilson hospital suffering with scalp wounds, she accused the doctor of assaulting her with a vanity bench, hitting her at the head with it in a jealous rage. Doctor Denied Charge Dr. Majors denied the charge. He branded his wife's story as false and accused her of attacking him with a baseball hat and said he raised the vanity bench to protect himself. She began to attack her head against the hinge of the door thus sustained her scalp wounds. The doctor offered to produce witnesses, roomers in the house, to corroborate his version of the affray. After a stay of several days in the hospital, she returned to her home but went to reside with relatives. She took no legal action against the doctor at that time. From then until Wednesday of this week he was left alone to rest from work, and had figured sensationally so long. Fight Lasts Three Years They begin with his second wife, Mrs. Jessie Malea, in February, 1923, when she sued him for divorce. It was a bitter contest lasting three years, after he was divorced, the doctor married Mrs. Bertha Malea in April, 1925, while he was still in litigation over property rights with his first wife. His third marital venture went on the rocks a year later. Now comes the separate maintenance suit filed by the third Mrs. Malea. She charges in her bill that the doctor ordered that the house and threatened her life. Dr. Malea will appear with his attorney, Wendell E. Green, before Superior Judge Joseph Sabbath Friday to determine the moment of temporary alimony, which will be the issue, until the final disposition of the suit, will be fought on the grounds that Mrs. Malea's silence against her to alimony in as much as she left the doctor and he is financially impoverished, his attorney stated. NATIONAL EDITION The vicinity of 31st St. and Indiana Ave. was thrown into a state of excitement shortly after 7 o'clock New Year's morning when two men were killed and another wounded in a revolt; battle waged in the street in front of the Avenue theater. The men slain in the duel were William Fields, 26 years old, 216 E 31st St., manager of the Speedway inn, a cabaret at 125 E 28, 3025 State St. The wound<sup>9</sup> Wife Wants Separation; More Funds New York City, Jan. 6.—Coming to the conclusion that the Rhinelander millions are being stacked against her in any effort to perfect a reconciliation with her husband, Leonard Kip Rhinelander, heir to the fortune, Mrs. Alice Jones Rhinelander has started action here for a legal separation. In her bill of particulars she claims that her action is based on cruelty, inhuman treatment and abandonment. So far the Westchester county sheriff has been able to locate Rhinelander in order to serve summons and complaint. Unless he is found within the next few days City Judge Samuel F. Swinburne, who resides in the country from one city to another under different assumed names so as to avoid newspaper reporters and unfavorable comment. Most of their communications is said in southern communities. When the complaint comes up for a hearing, Judge Swinburne said that he was going to ask that his client's per month be increased to $1,000. In spite of all that she has endured since the startling disclosure that the young, blueblooded married her, Rhinelander, and loved her Kip. She deeply believes, it is reported, that her husband has been forced to avoid her by hired agents of Phillip Rhinelander, one of the pilots of New York and father of Kip. Will Always Love Kin In reply to the question put by a reporter as to whether or not she still loved Rhinelander, she said: "I will always love him. I will always love him. The fact that we are separated makes no difference. If he is separated from me it is not because he does not love me, he will of his people." Although he never made a public statement as to his affections for his wife, it will be remembered that during the sensational annulment trial at White Plains three pumped by threats from his father, tried in vain to free himself from his bride, how he refused to answer a question as to whether or not he still loved Alice. All during the hearing, he was been appalled that huge bunches of roses have been received at Mrs. Alice Jones Rhinelander's residence without a card as to the sender's identity. Speculation has been omitted that Kip has secretly expressing his everlasting love for his wife. Story Excels Fiction The story of Alice excels any modern fiction. Her rise into the spotlight of the press of the world came as though some fairy goddess had waved his baton. It will be remembered how the little maidservant was walking along the highway with her sister, Grace, when Rhinelander and a boy friend driving by became acquainted with them through a station. A courtship between Rhinelander (Continued on Page 3) CAFE MANAGER A FIGHT GUN The vicinity of 31st St. and a state of excitement shortly after when two men were killed and battle waged in the street in fren slain in the duel were Will 31st St., manager of the Spee 28, 3025 State St. The wounded man was Mack McDonald, 26, 3637 State St. McDonald was in the cabaret at 6:30 a. m. when a shot fired through the entrance window from the street struck him in the foot. The mysterious shot precipitated the fatal duel. It seemed to have been a signal, according to the police, for Fields. He selected his avenue and the gunman, believed to have been Hobson, had disappeared. An hour later the two met in the street and shot. It out. When the two met in the street, they stole the street. Fields, wounded in the left side of the chest and side, died on the way to Merry hospital. Holson, who was wounded, cumbered at Michael Reese hospital at Examiners Probe Into Tangled Affairs Memphis, Tenn., Jan. 6.—(Special) Four prominent business men are this week behind jail bars in connection with the million dollar failure last Thursday of the Fraternal and Solvent Savings Bank and Trust company, owned and operated in this city for many years by our people. A rigid investigation is being carried on by committees who are making an effort to apprehend those responsible for the failure of the institution and it possible return the stolen funds of poor men and women of this city. Arrest Vice President With the arrest of Dr. J. E. Walker, first vice president, and the discovery of a rapidly growing list of misplaced on missing securities and irregular bank accounts, the police continue efforts to unravel the tangled skeins of events which led to the closing of the bank. In a signed confession Tuesday morning, memorial service for the three officersmitted embezzling $5,000, A. F. Ward and Leroy Williams have all attested a total of shortages exceeding $50,000. Examiners are of the opinion that allegations will lead to additional arrests. When rumors spread over the city and suburbs that the bank's funds had been misappropriated, lines of depositors quickly formed in front of the bank, which stands for the return of their savings. Police Halt Mob Several squads of police were called to the scene and it was only the quick action on the part of these patrolmen breaking down the doors of the bank. More than half the depositors were farmers and laborers who had placed their earnings in the bank for use in the construction of the furried mob remained in front of the institution all afternoon and evening. Members would listen to no storks and declared they would get those savings. Police assured all depositors that an attempt would be made to return the solen money. One of the first men to arrive on the scene had spread throughout the city was Robert R. Church, financier and Republican leader. Mr. Church pleaded with the depositors to return to their home, saying, "I am anxious for the public to know that I was not an officer, director nor a member of any committee of any kind or character of the Fraternity, and had absolutely no concession directly or indirectly with it. As a citizen of Memphis, with only the depositors in mind, I did try to help prevent the from closing" declared Mr. Church. Bob Church Offers Aid Mr. Church, it is said, borrowed $50,000 last week and put it in the bank in an effort to prevent the fall in it, also nummed that he has been able to raise $100.00 from outside interests and to have submitted his offer for reorganization to bank examiners. The main course of investigation is through the expense check ledger of the bank, which was kept personally by Ward. The stubs of several checks of considerable size were revelations to officers and employees of the bank other than the ones already involved. One expense item covered by chec (Continued on Page 5) AND PATRON I DUEL; BOTH DI Indiana Ave. was thrown into a 7 o'clock New Year's morning another wounded in a revolver out of the Avenue theater. Thelam Fields, 26 years old, 216 E. Odway inn, a cabaret at 125 E. 2:30 p. m. without regaining consciousness. Lieut. William Middleton and his squad investigated the double slaying, but could find no witnesses who knew of it. There had been no argument between the men in the cabaret prior to the duel, witnesses said, but there had been bad feeling between them. What is was about, however, the police were unable to learn. The Speedway inn had been in operation six months. After the duel the police were immediately steps to cick the place. In the meantime the police are still on the case. The theory was advanced that a woman was probably the source of the feud between the duels. FOR COLDS BAYER ASPIRIN To break a cold harmlessly and in a hurry try a Bayer Aspirin tablet. And for headache. The action of Aspirin is very efficient, too, in cases of neuralgia, neuritis, even rheumatism and lumbago! And there's no after effect; doctors give Aspirin to children—often infants. Whenever there's pain, think of Aspirin. But get the real Bayer Aspirin; the genuine has Bayer on the box and on every tablet. All druggists, with proven directions. Physicians prescribe Bayer Aspirin; it does NOT affect the heart Physicians prescribe Bayer Aspirin; it does NOT affect the heart Aspirin is the trade mark of Bayer Manufacture of Monoaceticacidester of Salicylicacid PART I—PAGE 2 SLAVES GIVEN FREEDOM IN SIERRA LEONE 250,000 Liberated Jan. 1 by English Freetown, Sierra Leone, Africa. Jan. 6.—A quarter of a million domestic slaves were freed Jan. 1 and were given equality with their former masters. The principality persons captured in intertribal warfare or their descendants before the proclamation of the protectorate in 1896. Of liberty for these 250,000 slaves was accomplished by the vigorous fight made by Lady Kathleen Simon, wife of Sir John Simon, an English liberal party leader. Simon was a slave, yet existed in the British protectorate. The slaves were owned by natives, not Europeans. Nearly one-fifth of the people were in bondage and 100,000 did not carry with it the right of sale or the right to manhandle. Owners to Be Paid Legislative action was taken to wipe out the last vestige of slavery after these conditions had been exacerbated. The state had been passed declaring that the children of slaves should be free and thus slavery would have disappeared in time. Subsequently few of the former slaves have left their recent masters in the newly acquired freedom. It is probable that many will continue to work as free men and women for those who formerly claimed their slaves. The majority of their thorities are working out methods to compensate the former slaveholders. Haiti Ignores Martyr Port-Au Prince, Haiti, Jan. 6.—President Lloyd Bornio issued a proclamation upon the 124th anniversary of Haiti, rejoicing over the era of independence, which marked the growth of the republic. He attributed conditions to the treaty of amity with the United States to the taming of the tomba of Petion and Desalines, Haitian independence heroes. At no time during the ceremonies was the name of the hero and martyr. Toussaint Wendell Phillips, one of America's greatest abolitionists and humanitarians, so honored this great military hero, that one of the most famous lectures of the country "the latter of Ourverture." Although this slave inspired with the spark of military genius struck the first blow blowing into the heart of the country, celebrating today, his name was buried and his memory ignored. Brain Pantheon Increases Moscow, U. S. S. R. Jan. 6.—The brain of Prof. Vladimir Bechteverhon has been added to the "brain pantheon," founded by the noted scientist Vladimir Bechteverhon, paralysis of the heart following a brief illness. Other brains in the collection are: Alexander Kohln, writer, jurist and ranking member of the academy of science, who died in 1807, the naturalist and chemist, who died in 1807, and Anton Rubinstein, the famous composer, who died in 1884. CREATING APPETITES A varied diet is more healthy than a restricted one, and people who have formed the habit of disliking certain wholesome foods should eat a balanced diet, mind. For doctors who have made a study of such things declare that one can teach himself to eat and like almost any edible food. Children who are in weakening their bodies by refusing to eat strength-building foods. THE MASTER LADY KATHLEEN SIMONS Credited with the freeing of 250,000 slaves, in Sierra Leone, Africa, a British protectorate, on Jan. 1 through a vigorous publicity campaign waged by Lady Kathleen McCarthy, a British world of the slavery conditions still existing under the British flag. The freed slaves enjoy political equality and a high degree of morality of the slaves or their descendants were in bondage because of their capture in intertribal warfare. DROP "NEGRO" IS NEW MOVE FOR FREEDOM - (Continued from Page 1) minded peoples of the world turn their backs with a regard for them much the same as was held for the barbarian Huns, the instigators of this New Year's resolution contend. Pointing out still other defects in the word, the committee in charge of the resolution states that some whites are attempting to use "Poro" now as something of a jest or hurl at the generation of the natives distinguished missionary and explorer, is quoted as telling of the finding of a secret order in the interior of Africa that was perhaps as old as the first generation of the natives distinguished missionary and explorer. The resolution committee used this as an illustration to show how words get their origin and are changed by other persons just to meet their fancy. With all those things in mind, the committee during 1928 that, it accomplishes its one big objective in making the masses of the people enmanage their minds and realize that they too are Americans and that they have right to America First and Americans Only." Wilberforce Professor Gets Master's Degree Columbus, Ohio. Jan. 6. — At the convocation of Ohio State university, hold here Dec. 21. Prof. Henry H. Summers received the Master of Arts degree.

SIGMAS HOLD 14TH CONCLAVE IN ST. LOUIS Select Louisville for 1928 Meet St. Louis, Mo. Jan. 7.—The Phil Beta Sigma fraternity last Thursday closed its 14th annual conclave. The five-day session was characterized as one of the most successful in the history of the Greek letter organization Attorney W. Mitchell of W. Mitchell were 48 delegates in attendance from various sections of the country. Attorney Mitchell was unanimously re-elected president of the national devotedness and fidelity in serving the fraternity. As an expression of appreciation for his leadership, under his direction, a dwarfful progress, he was presented with a silver loving cup and $200. The sessions of the conclave死 with him are important to the fraternity. Brilliant men are interspersed among the events. Plan Commission Three delegates were chosen *py the fraternity to attend a conference at Indianapolis at which the major fraternity upon the proposed pan-Hellenic meeting of Greek letter bodies being sponsored by Mine, C. J. Walker company, those chosen were Attorney Mitchell, Mine, C. J. Walker and F. L. Lewis of Washington, D. C. Plans were formulated by the body for carrying out the movement to send a Sigma-Haitian commission to study conditions in study conditions in those places. Intensive plans for the promotion of the "better business" program of the fraternity were also the major matter dealt with in the business sessions. A. L. Holsey, president of the National Negro Business league, and A. L. Holsey, president of the Key College, Marshall, Tex., delivered inspiraling messages before the body. Other officers elected were C. W. Trother, Aumann, and C. Resident; Dr. C. L. Kaiser, Plint, M. president; Dr. Earl Williams, Lovejoy, vice president; F. L. Lewis, president; F. L. Lewis, Thomas H. Reid, Porsmouth, Vn. secretary and treasurer; Dr. Scruggs, chosen as the place for the next meeting of the fraternity. Intensive Training Needed for New Age The day of the "pickups" is past, by "pickup" in this case, is meant the overconfident and usually ignorant person, who boasts that he or she can "pick up" a thing, or effort in learning to do a thing, but that they can just "pick it up". Never there an age where training :: expansion of the mind were needed, the person who is content to learn is down to what he has learned in the distant past, will have a sad awakening. The lines are overwhelmed with the individuals who can do anything is training, intensive, specialized, specific, if it is not, it is not training, but dabbling. PROPOSE DRAINAGE SYSTEM Kingston, Jamaica, Jan. 8-Improved water and street systems and the construction of sanitary drainage in Georgetown, British Guiana, is the proposal of Harvey Fish & Sons, American financiers. The project will begin in the Fall. The financing, it is promised, could be negotiated in the United States.

In ASKS LOWDEN TO QUERIES ON ASKS LOWDEN TO ANSWER TO QUERIES ON PORTERS' WAGE (Continued from Page 1) yourself upon the problems closest to their heart and economic future. Other Problems But the farmers, though a unit for you, cannot elect you without the aid of others. Therefore, you naturally present yourself or your friends present you, to every section of the public, to each section of this public will demand a program. Business, labor, women, drys, wets, those interested in the question of power in Mexico, farmers, farmers, will want to know where you stand on the problem vital to them. Permit me to say that I am presently concerned about your attitude on Race relations and the problems you stand on the question of the enforcement of the 14th amendment, segregation in the departments in which you work, and the policies that you stand on the question of the government positions, the eligibility of qualified Negroes to attend the college of the University, the reduction of representation of the South in direct ratio to the denial of the right of surface to college of the University of Hawaii. Every Negro, regardless of political opinions, wants to know how you view the aforementioned questions. But you are not aware of your pronouncement will naturally and logically be determined by your attitude affecting their incomes. You have great control, I refer to the Pulman company and the Pullman porter. Pullman Profite As the son-in-law of the Pullman family you naturally hold a tremendous influence in the affairs of the early mining company. From the very beginning the Pullman company for over a half century, Negroes have served as Pullman porters. With the labor of Negro Pullman companies, from the original cash capital investment some $36,000,000 to $136,000,000, since 1897 it has distributed in cash dividends over $245,000,000 and in cash loans over $100,000,000. The company realized practically $20,000,000 in net profits. With Negroes as Pullman porters the company has been steadily pursuing a career of industrial and financial expansion. Pullman porters are productive and efficient. Still, within the period of a half century the Pullman porters and their crews accounted for only $22.50. In this fair? Can a family today live, according to American standards of health, decency and comfort, on this meager income? But do you think it just and a sound business policy to require a porter to depend upon tips that are uncertain, inadequate and degrading, a species of public begging for charity? Do you know that some porters work as long as 400 hours and more than 1,000 miles on baskets for this and any wage, whereas the Pullman conductors work 240 hours a month and receive a minimum wage of $1500 per hour. The Pullman conductors of their wage. They ought to get more, but the porters should get no less, with the regulation 240 hours and time and a half for overtime. Increase Justified Pullman porters are entitled to higher wages, too, because they have the company opportunity advancement in the company except in structured, who have been adroitly used more to frame porters than to serve employees, any white employee in the company the opportunity to become the president of the company. Do you have a friend who has the Negroes, who have faithfully served the pany until it has become a giant corporation, not only the right to the service of the company, but also the Permit me also to inform you, sir, that the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, which I have the honor majority of porters, enrolled the large majority of porters in a service as members, sought a conference with the management of the company, and upon being denied said service, I came to the case according to the provisions of a way labor act to the United States mediation board, and the board urged and recommended that the dispute with the union, but the company refused, thereby violating the intent and spirit of the railway labor act, which was passed by the company as a result of the agent. At the same time the company arbitrating its dispute with the Pullman conductors. Do you not regard this as rank and flugant discrimination against porters' union. If you grant that porters' union. If you want to organize, conductors have the right to organize, the engineers have the right to organize, haven't porters organized, a lack of a transportation workers, a right to organize also? Organization Grows You may be interested in knowing, too, that the oldest and most experienced members of the service are members of the union, and are making to make any sacrifice to achieve its success. The organization was the first, and is steadily and permanently growing as a revolt against the company union which strifles the self-expression of the porters in the adjustment of their working conditions, hurring from time to time. The LAW ENFORCERS VISIT the picture from left to right, seated, are: F. D. Fuller, deputy sheriff; Andrew H. Sneed, deputy sheriff; Detection队, D. O. Smith, and Edward Smith, really dealer and business man. In the back row, standing, left to right: ANSWER TO PORTERS' WAGE from Page 1 porters have faith in it. They have no faith in the company union. But not only are the porters devoted to the brotherhood, but principally every single large national Negro organization is backing the porters' fight. The press, church, traternal societies, professional groups, college fraternities and so-called organizations and women's clubs all believe the essential justice of the porters' movement. What's Your Attitude? As a candidate for the president of the United States can you reasonably appeal for the support of a candidate who has such fluent and indefensible discrimination in your own corporation? Certainly, Negroes are not only the minority but must justify your hands as president by showing you expect justice at your hands as a powerful, influential factor in the pulman company, a great American pulman company, an official of the company or not, your position as the son-in-law of the late George Pullman give you an opportunity to make the materially shape the policy of the company toward the porters and maids in relation to wages and benefits, granting that you cannot change the present policy of the company you can at least protest against it, because you may not likely be summarily ignored. As a candidate for the presidency you must be committed to the principle of upholding and enforcing all laws. You must have a strong attitude on the refusal of the Pullman company to abide by the provisions of the railway labor act? you hope to see the Mc-Nary-Hawke law. How can you countenance the Pullman company's fouling the Watson-Parker bill, which provides for the right of self-organization of all railway companies? How can limitation and for the arbitration of disputes between the carriers and employees, when meditation fails? I cannot believe that you, who champions so resolutely and nobly, the law of the railway, would coldly ignore the appeals for justice of the oppressed porters of your own institution. I cannot be held that you would grant white employment to a black employee deny that same right to Colored employees. I cannot believe that you would tolerate the notorious and un-American policy of the management and mails to vote under intimidation and coercion for the company union. Trusting that your fine vision and spirit of fair play, which have charm and integrity, will help farmers, will also mark your attitude toward the porters and males, loyal employees or the Pullman crew, and your reply, I am, respectfully yours.

BURNED TO DEATH Glasgow, Mo., Jan. 6. - Benjamin Gantt, an aged man, was burned to death early Tuesday morning when his home was destroyed by fire. Lucky Mystic Treasure Chest Death Claims "Desert Avy" in N. Mexico For years I've asked, in an effort to know Just why it is that man here below Must suffer from famine, disease and foe While God is indifferent to all our woe. Thus sang Julius Avendorph, known to readers of "Lights and Shadows" of the Defender as "Desert Avy" at Albuquerque, until night at Albuquerque, N. M. after a four-year fight against tuberculosis. His death came suddenly, just when his friends and relatives back in Chil- conegue were in town, he might pull through. Not even those nearest to him in Chicago knew that the cheerful "Desert Avy" had taken their place, and the prison was received that he had succumbed. Julius Avendorph was born in Chicago Sept. 29, 1903. His father, one of the first African American socially, was the first society editor of The Chicago Defender, and maintained a connection with this institution until his death about four years later. He educated in Curter public practice school and Hyde Park high school, Julius enrolled at the University of Illinois, where he made a fine record. He was forced to abandon this state for the more congenial climate of New Mexico. That was at Christmas, 1923. Julius was an age ago "Desert" made his debut in Shadows. For a while Chicagoans were guessing just who could be this witty person out in Alququerque. Billy actually came in sight. In those days Desert Avy was a casually he would burst into poetry, and his poems always called for extended comment. It was through the comments that the column took on the trenatal aspect and became Lambda Alpha Sigma, and Desert Avy was its first member. The second member of Lambda Alpha Sigma, "Venus," died just two years ago. Last summer Desert Avy wrote the short query printed at the head of this article. In it he seemed to have decided to break his period of silence during and to voice a mild complaint. A few weeks later came "Resignation". The state of things would make one It was his last contribution to the column. A mild complaint — resignation — threw his body was returned to Chicago where funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon at St. Thomas Episcopal church, 38th St. and Wubash Ave. Mrs. Jennie Avena and her husband, Mrs. has been under the care of a physician, her return from Albuquerque, where she visited her son on his last birthday, is prostrate with grief. Other relatives are a brother, Frederick. Rebelies are a mother, Ada Mitchell and Erin Jones.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER MMA RHO ays was the entertaining of the Sigma rose to the occasion and made this one in 75 delegates, representing chapters WANT BALLOT POWER TO GET BEST RESULTS Says Voting Strength Is Being Ignored Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 6. — The claims of the citizens of Cleveland for large, public recognition are not enough, a few people say. A few days ago, a group of leaders assembled in the East End and discussed some of the local needs as they surveyed what the Republican and Democratic parties in other large northern centers have done in the past. It was the consensus of opinion that the faithfulness of our vote to the Republican party in this city has been low, and some time some time. Some pointed out that in comparison with New York and Chicago, Cleveland is way down in the population, recognizing a measure, the Mention Chicago Taking Chicago for example, it was pointed out that in that city with a population of two million and a population of two hundred thousand, recognition as follows has been shown: a municipal judge, salary $10,000; a civil counsel, salary $10,000; a member of the board, salary $20,000; two assistant corporation counsels, salary $5,000 each; three assistant corporation counsels, salary $3,500 each; one assistant attorney, salary $3,500 each; one city prisoner, salary $2,700 each, and a number of clerks, stenographers, library attendants, messengers, etc. On the side of the Democratic primary, recognition of like character has in a measure obtained. A comparison of Cleveland with its population of one million, composed of a Race population estimated at about 70,000, clearly indicates that the recognition of our vote is an short of what should be accorded. Demand New Policies Recounting the experiences of the recent municipal elections, it was observed that the primary cause of the defeat was the dependent Race, candidates was the apparent indifference accorded the voter in the way of political recognition by the Republican organization. The efforts of the group of leaders appears to be a deliberate attempt of presenting a united front in the demand for additional and adequate recognition. A prominent member of the group is referring to certain reactions that indicate the group that no attempt is being made to overthrow the present line-up of political leadership among the Race in the municipal elections. We have such leadership adopt a broader vision and assume a fighting role on behalf of larger recognition. GERMAN PRESIDENT GREETED Berlin, Germany, Jan. 6.

Newark, MA EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION HUGE SUCCESS ```markdown ``` By CARY B. LEWIS A monster Emancipation celebration was observed on New Year's Eve at the African church with Bishop A. J. Carey as principal speaker. A splendid musical program was rendered by the Rev. Charles Grandison, prominent sorcerer, priest, and a fourth for an encore. Even though the weather was below zero, there was a spiritual and intellectual shade that made the occasion a memorable one. Bishop Carey, a member of the clerk commission, was introduced by the bishop Dr. Roberts, who spoke of the religious, political and beneficial services rendered by the distinguished prelate Dr. Roberts, with a committee, had an occasion to be presented to the mayor of the civic matter, but several big politicians, down, saying "the time was not ripe," but that it was left to the bishop to take time by the horn and present the mayor, William Hale Thompson. Fight for Liberty Bishop Carey advanced the thought that God prepared the way for the mission of the world, so did the Master prepare the way for the coming of Abraham Lincoln to sign the emancipation and liberation of the black soldiers played their part in the Union army and said the liberty we enjoy today was bought with the blood of our fathers and grandfathers. "Two generations have passed since the emancipation was signed, and the progress of the Race; notably such men as Fred Douglas in the first and the late Booker T. Washington in the second, will you of the third do?" said the Bishop. It was there that the speaker took advice to the young people present. He decried the dance hall, cabaret and spendthrift type of young people, sayings of morals and health to waste their time in such manner. An honorable Christian life was the one that he advocated for the people of this gen- Will Vote Independently As a slant on the political situation the bishop spoke of a leader in Cincinnati, Ohio, who backed by his wife, who was the state of Ohio when it comes to the nomination of the presidential candidate in 1928, and that in Illinois no one man or no set of men have that power, that they will cast a vote for a president whom they think is their best friend. "The question arises," added the speaker, "are going to prove ourselves that rest upon us; are we going to contribute the best that's in us to make this Race felt in the scheme of life? Are you going to associate yourself with the people we love and tried and stand for something morally, intellectual and financially? So long as we can have strong men and women physically to propagate, there is a great future Continuing, the bishop said, "I congratulate this organization for its work in helping us our folks together that they might think and discuss affairs of their Race. This is done every day by our bishop and our pastor, and we frequently. May God help us to profit by the life of Jesus and Lincoln that this Race of ours will see a new world." Asking vote of thanks was extended the bishop for nis able address. NAMES BASIS OF DURABLE PEACE BETWEEN ALL RACES Huntington, W. Va., June 6—In an address last week at the 16th St. church, Dr. Mack T. Williams of Cleveland, Ohio, gave in a very concise and forceful manner the basis upon which there could come a durable peace between races and cultures in America. ```markdown ``` Dr. Williams spoke from the subject, "The Conflict of Blood and Color," and his address dealt largely to the issue of race. In his address Dr. Williams said: "Until we had the period of association in the life of the primitive group there was little chance for connection with the people of the urge began to become a factor in the grouping of men, this association was fraught with many insidious dangers, among them being the possible conflict of the conflicts in the early life of the primitive man arose at times over the available food supply; occupation of fertile soils; sex control, and the various peoples into ethnic groups. "Remove every barrier to a man's attempt to attain to the best and longest way in removing the possibility of group conflicts. Destroy the tendency to fix and determine the situation and conflicts will not be so frequent. Let the ruling classes remove their spirit of domination and treat the weakest and the most vulnerable and the fact of conflict would be avoided. But so long as we have restrictions, proscription and negations to face citizens who are not well-educated or well-citizen ship and so long as we have social injustices and a vicious maltreatment of any person who may be a part of a group, we must have to race conflicts. ```markdown ``` "Special privileges given to the, few and denied the many in any group life will in time become the most of the weaker groups as a means of exploitation for the benefit of the stronger will develop into a serious conflict in time. "Much of the interest of the otherlings is little more than a comedy and a farce. The most evident insecurity is often found on both sides. There is often a disposition to use the factual facts in the case. The white man knows full well the cause of the conflicts between the whites and Negroes in America, but usually unwilling to use necessary information, which these conflict situations may be avoided. It is little more than a waste of time and effort to talk of goodwill between the whites and Negroes in America; aggregation, infestation, negations, lynchings and other social injustices prevail in our American life. America is sowing the seeds of hostility and destruction by permitting certain injustices to remain in her life." --- A woman is sadism interested in her husband. "Personal."-Denver Star. THE MEMBERSHIP OF THE UNION OF THE MIDDLE-ATLANTIC STATE OF NEW YORK New York, always entertaining one convention or another, outdid herself last week as host to the grand conclave of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity, which met in its 16th annual gathering, Dec. 26 to 31, inclusive. This conclave, which N. CAROLINA SLAYER MAY ESCAPE ROPE Insanity Plea Is Sent to Supreme Court Raleigh, N. C, Jan. 6—Preparations are being made at the state pententary here for the erection of the gallows on which Larry Newsome, youthful murderer, is to be hanged Jan. 13, unless the death sentence is tried and sentenced to die on Dec. 11, at Goldsboro in the first Sunday court session in the history of North Carolina. Judge Henry A. Grady held a mob in the courtroom at bay with a large pistol while he pronounced sentence. The court sentenced him to seize the prisoner from the law officers right in court and only the prompt action in calling out the guardsmen prevented mob violence. The youth was convicted of attacking and slaying a young girl Dec. 10, and was captured after an attack on a countryside heavily armed mobs. Sanity Doubted Efforts to save the 22-year-old youth were started when Dr. W. C. Linnville, superintendent of the state juvenile justice system, possessed the mentality of a 10-year-old child and that he showed signs of insanity. Since being confined to his cell here in the penitentiary he had an unbalanced mind. Students of law and attorneys are of the opinion that the trial could throw out all allowed evidence carried out by the state justice department on the grounds that it was held under prejudiced influence and mob violence. They declare the case under existing conditions should have been handled by the state justice department where the feeling was not so strong. The appeal to the supreme court will be based on the question of the youth's insanity, the court's determination of the law trial's preservation of the condemned mentality will be made by the state prison commissioners before Governor McClean decide if the youth should be sent to the insane asylum for life.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 7, 1928 FOUR JAILED WHEN DIXIE BANK FAILS Examiners Probe Into Tangled Affairs (Continued from Page 1) stub No. 236, drawn Dec. 28, the day before the bank crashed, in favor of Wayman Wilkerson, a director of the bank, is explained as "attorney fee, telegrams, legal services and long distance phones in connection with securing loan from National Benefit." The amount of the check was $600 and the insurance company referred so is located in Washington and made one week prior to its failure. Wilkerson is chief lieutenant of Mr. Church. Other stub items listed the withholding of $2,000 and $1,000 denominations in favor of the Delta Penny Savings bank at Indianola, Miss., also a Race institution. The checks were stub recorded and all drawn between Dec. 10 and 17.

Williams the bank manager of time so the examiners communicated with detective headquarters and Detective Lieutenant Granville Heckle with Sergent Miller and Exhibitor Williams, feeling certain that something was wrong. They found Williams rushing to his car which was parked about a block from the house, after detaining him they went to his office and examined bank papers and the evidence in clothing and furnishings of an expenditure during the last several months which would have required some of at least $1,000 per month. Taking Williams to the bank and confronting him with Ward, the president, examiners put them both on a grilling bar at Saturday's fundraiser, offenses to totaling $80,000, the majority against Ward. Neither Ward nor Williams have had any desire for freedom, fearing the loss of denizens members of the mob of denizens. The Solvent and Fraternal Bank and Trust company upon falling listed as assets more than $1,250,000, with more than $800,000 on loans that condition was solely responsible for its failure. --- Washington, D. C., Jan. 6—When R. E. Rutherford, president of the National Benefit Life Insurance company, learned of the failure of the company of Memphis, he made the following statement to newspaper men: "In keeping with our long established policy to support Race Relations, we have granted deposit in the Solvent-Praternal bank. At distress call and upon solemn assurances of officers and directors order to prevent the stockholder from closing the bank $40,000. Before doing so, however, we adopted measures to safeguard and protect our interests. The National Benefit Life Insurance company is still more than solvent and remains the greatest financial bulwark for our people." OENVERITES HOLD BIGGEST EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION Denver, Colo.

Dr. Delano started in on his new case with a determination to bring about satisfactory results; and at the end of 20 days, the patient was not only completely cured but her hair over the brushed spot had grown to such a remarkable degree that it aroused the curiosity of both her family and Dr. Delano; so much so, that the doctor questioned her as to what was it that she had been using on her hair during the treatment. Her reply was that she only been using the oliment-prescribed doctor. With the given information, the doctor started straightway into deep research to find out more about the treatment and its connections with the roots of the hair and after experimenting for 27 months, Dr. Delano announced that he had discovered a certain herb, which when macerated with certain chemicals, and mixed together with pure Cocanut Oil and California Pine Tar, would pro- After finding that the experiment had made a difference in the patient's ability, Dr. Delano placed his preparation on the market under the name of Dr. DeLano, who had been a physician that day until the present time the sale has been a phenomenal and uninterrupted success.

PART I—PAGE B WILL NOT BAR WIVES FROM SCHOOL ROOM Washington, D. C., Dec. 28.—The board of education has dropped the question of whether it should conduct women as teachers in the public schools. The board at its meeting last week received and filed a report of the referendum which it conducted on the question. No further action will be taken until this question is raised anew. This problem had been before the board since March 2. The question was raised by the parent-teacher associations. The board therefore decided to ask citizens' associations, parent-teacher associations, civic clubs and similar organizations for feedback. Returns were received from 70 sources. Fifty-seven organizations favored married women as public school teachers and as normal school teachers. Six expressed no definite opinion. A further analysis of the returns shows that 23 organizations held that status of a teacher should be the guide. Thirteen favored married women without giving their reasons. Twenty-four were not discriminated, or no "blanket ban." Two advocated the employment of married women with a preference to be given to the single women. Two problems are one for the board to decide. Of the seven opposing views, four came from organizations directly involved in divisions 10 to 13, the Colored schools.

There has been a no. ticeable development in the Race’s economic and social up- Mft. There has been a very big rise in the Race’s political status, Unluckily America must stil hide her-face when the report fs given as to the number of human beings that have beer lynched, burned and tortured ‘on accusations that have been in most cases false. In the ficld of literature and art the Race has made a big contribution during the past year. Exhibitions of Race ar have done a great deal in bringing about good will be- tween both races. A number of awards have been received by individuals for their work in art. On the stage the Race has taken a leading part. From the time that Charles Gilpin first Kicked open the door of opportunity on Broadway there has been’an increasing number each year that attempt to go into some Broadway house. To give the reader a brief summary of these things which will have a definite influence upon the greater development of the Race The Chicago De- fender is giving this chron- ology: SATURDAY, JANUARY 1—The suumnof Wilberforce university an for facie concerning prove of fralt at one institutions : ‘Dre Perry.

Education is more apt to maintain hard-earned domestic reactions than any other. Secondly—the college woman is older when she is married. Secondly—she has a variety of creations. Secondly—she uses women and vitalities. Thirdly—she woman with a college degree never met the expectations of her career when the children are grown up and some she is usable as a teacher, mentor, friend, herself and society. Should she make a stand around sighing, but instead launches into two fields: endeavor and doubling tuition.

Bars Goodies Get Thin without Starvation Get Thin without Starvation Excess fat causes many constant self-demals. Every day brings a new fight, and only a small percentage gain in those days. The real cause is left uncorrected. Over 20 years ago medical science discovered a great cause of excess fat. It is nutrition. A factor which Nature employs to turn food into fuel and energy, rather than into fat. Then that factor was embodied in the Marmola diet. No people have used them for two decades—millions of boxes of them. They have told the results to others. Today everyone can see that excess fat is nowhere more important than almost every circle slenderness prevails. The use of Marmola requires no abnormal exercises or diet, but moderation is necessary four days until they correct the cause. They know what they are taking, and why. The formula is given in every box, also the reasons for all results. Every day comes, and why they involve no harm. --- The Defender MOVIE and STAGE DEPARTMENT "Laughin' and Cryin' Blues" Vocals by Austin and Lee Allen Record No. 14266-D 10-inch, 75c Laughin' and Cryin' Blues Chattanooga Blues Vocals Austin and Lee Allen What a laugh you will get out of this sobbing, weeping, laughing, howlingly funny record by Austin and Lee Allen.

A Prosperous New Year or to acquire great material possessions. It is the craving for money and material possessions that furnishes the motive for such crimes as were the murders of Snyder, Snyder Gray and young Hickman. The same mana for money creates hands, embezzeleres, forgers, graffers, gambers and bootleggers. Where lies the fault? The fault lies in the false money standard and all who contribute to its continuance are to blame. Why do women barter their virtue and men risk their eternal souls to obtain money? Because our false money standard leads men and women to invest in things worth while. If a vulgar, filiterate bootleger with a million attracts more attention and receives more favor than a penniless college student, he will be president? If prostitution can itself in rich raiment, jingle its money bags and thereby gain admission to our most exclusive circles, while virtue and penury are left out to choose the way of virtue? If ignorance and dollars are permitted to dictate the way of intelligence and knowledge, why wish to be wise or waste time? If we choose the way of happiness. The older one grows the less one is inclined to place a high value upon money. Money is to be desired and should be acquired, but not at us. If we choose the way of us, we must trample love and friendship, forfit honesty and virtue, and stifle every holy impulse to acquire wealth, that one is certain to find the price too high and live in poverty, that one will turn to ashes of sorrow and remorse. We'd like to see some ingenious man or woman invent a waterproof hair straightener. It is impossible to draw a straightener without the weather is leaking. They are not restrained by the thought of danger to their health, but by the thought of their hair being straightened locks. There is also an economical consideration. Women who have enhanced their hair by using a straightener are more propitious. Bring on the waterproof hair straightener. Few men in any city wield the political influence that Mr. Turpin brandishes in the city of St. Louis. Not only is Charley a shrewd politician, but he is a white press man as well.

"Red" We'd like to see the color line Wiped out before old Father Time Gets Godfrey, and for him too late To take a crack at Tunney's plate. When we wish somebody or somebody wishes us a prosperous New Year, the thought of money rises to the surface of our minds as quickly as the corner of a man's line that has been cast in the middle of a rapidly flowing stream. A money comes the thought of health, but we think of health, because health is the one best rite to account for money. 9 How many make the wish to be in the garden Salmé T. Whitney prosper in wi- virtue, truth, honesty and love? "Seek ye first the mighty dollar and all things else will be added unto the twentieth century commandment. It is strange why we humans persist in embracing the delusion that the accumulation of money and things material is the one road to happiness and contentment. Duty it owes us to the earth. We need not the evidence placed before us. All life upon earth, all things material are transient; it then obtains that happiness founded upon it must be evanescent. It cannot be beaten." Money rightfully obtained and honestly employed is a medium for the exercise of the prestitution of money form the basis for most of the evils with which humanity is afflicted. It is the inference that possessions that builds great navies, equips formidable armies and schools millions of men in the art of destruction, army and a navy maintained is an army and navy to be used. Government for sport, they build them for fighting purposes only and why?

MAIL RADIO Chicago School History Advocates Southern Hates it is being brought more and more definitely to the attention of The Chicago Defender that sentiment other advocates in the public schools of the city. A clear example of this situation is shown in a history text now in section 3. Singlewood high school and other Chicago high schools in the United States," by Henry William Elson, a minister, who seems to have taken unusual delight in spreadring the word of the accepted throughout the South but excluded in the liberal northern cities. While the city authorities are interesting themselves in driving King George III out of the text books, the Defender suggests that a thorough study of the doctrines as broadcast by Mr. Elson and historians of his type also come under the ban of condemnation. This material, the complete chapter of which is printed below, is of the most dangerous nature and can have no good effect upon the minds of students to study it. Not only is it obviously unfair and far from accurate facts, but it is calculated to leave impressions which will not make for amicable relations between races in years to come. The students must be trained out of our school books even if it becomes necessary to neglect King George to a certain extent. If ever there was a book that should be condemned and that should be doubled up with a take-side binder of Elson "History of the United States." The chapter in question follows: "The rule of the white man is essential to southern progress. Can it be said, on general principles, or on evidence, that the blackag-bag governments, that the blackag-bag governments developed the South as it has been developed since the war? The writer of this volume himself to be as nearly without race prejudice as a white man, and that he believes that all thoughtful people will agree that the great development of the South since the war—in art, in science, literature, education and in progress—could not have been, except under domination of the white race. What of the Future? "What, then, of the Negro in the future? He can become equal to the white man in the government of the South only when he makes himself an equal to the white man in the government of the South this may never be, for nature has done more for his pale-faced brother than for him. What, then, of the Negro in the government of the South remains to he told, namely: The Negro is quite safe and his happiness quite secure under the white man's government. The white man is southern state, but in no case, aside from those pertaining to the franchise, do the laws discriminate against the black man. There is not access to the white man's government or township of the whole South that has not access to a free public school, established under the white man's government, and supported by his Negro. Negro stands before the law on a level with his white brother. If the time shall ever come when the Negro can make himself an equal force with the white man in equal, in amendment 14, 18 to the constitution, he need not build the edifice; there it stands ready for him to occupy, there is the supreme law, make him equal in amendment 14, 18 to the constitution, such for congressional reconstruction. Meantime if he is denied a free bailot, if he is denied a part in making the laws, he enjoys the same protection under the laws with the men who make them. "There still remains the social problem. In this the line between the political line, and all attempts at coercion are worse than folly. Why should there be any attempt at coercion? Why should not the races be content with his own society? Constitutions, congresses, and courts are powerless to change the social relationship itself. The nature of the natural difference between them is properly recognized, this great problem cannot be solved. The future of the Negroests childless himself. The worst of the Race today is not the want of a free ballot, but the want of ambition to do something and be someone. Vast numbers of the southern bicks of the Southern class who aspire to nothing; who are content to live in squail and ignorance. But there are noble exceptions. The men who are striving to uplift their Race to a higher plane of civilisation. If the bulk of the Race would follow the guidance of such leaders as the late William W. Wingate, the question would soon cease to be troublesome. **NEW EVENTS** "A final statement we be said about congressional reconstruction.

The first stage in this process was marked by violence and disorder in the extreme, the most prominent feature being the work of the Ku Klux. This condition led congress to pass the enforcement act of 1870, the Ku Klux act of 1871, and of an additional civil rights bill in 1872. But in spite of all this, every southern state that had seceded turned Democratic, beginning with Tennessee in 1869 and ending with Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina in 1877. But as violence in the south against the black voter always awakened an outney from the North, a new plan was inaugurated about 1877, which marks the beginning of the second wave of white construction. During this period, which continued until 1890, the whites kept control chiefly by sharp practice, such as gerrymandering and ballot-mixing. Ignorant blacks were easily managed. "Meantime, a series of supreme court decisions, if we may anticipate a little more, served to encourage the southern Democracy in its methods. In 1882, the Supreme Court Slaughter House cases, to be referred to later, greatly weakened the 14th amendment as compared with its earlier intended meaning, and other later decisions continued this weakening another in 1882, the enforcement act of 1870 and the Ku Klux act were rendered null by their being confined to state action and not to individuals who conspired to deprive Negroes of their rights. In 1875, the court pronounced the civil rights act of 1875 unconstitutional. Disfranchisement System "During this period the equity of the Negro with the white man was recognized in law, though not in fact. But in 1890 the third and last stage of the unchained blacks began. In this year Mississippi applied another method without treading on the 15th amendment. the state adopted a constitution that gave the black voters by a property and educational test, while the ignorant white voter was taken care of through the test constitution clause. South Carolina followed in 1895 with an 'understanding' clause to save the litterate white voter, and in 1896 may, all unconsolously of course, decide that the ignorant Negro does not understand the constitution, and Louisiana in 1898 does. Louisiana in 1898 protected the ignorant whites by a new device known as the 'grandfather clause', by which the constituent voter can deny right to vote for the new father was a voter in 1867. North Carolina followed this example in 1900, and other states have since then followed this pattern. The 15th amendment of the 15th amendment rendered the 14th amendment and parts of the 14th almost a dead letter in the South. The state has been tested before the federal supreme court, but in each case the matter has been dismissed for want of evidence. The citizens of the North shown a disposition to apply the text of the 14th amendment to reduce the representation of the southern states in concluding so consequence of their chilling so large a potion of their voters."

Chicago Fails to Honor Memory of De Saible The population of Chicago is placed at 3,102,800, with property valuation placed at millions of dollars. Jean Point De Sable, in 1778, did not enjoy such comradship of millions, but worked hard on a wind swept lake shore, surrounded by Indians. It was through the efforts of this pioneer that the city of Chicago is what it is today. When this trader purchased the first piece of land from the Indians on the shores of Lake Michigan, he was foundling in the wealth of thousands of people who refuse to honor his memory. During 1927 white citizens honored the memory of hundreds of people in the industrial Chicago and ignored this hero and pioneer because of his color and race. The Defender, during 1928 and 1929, was the memory of this hero, will carry on its fight for the honor that is justly due De Sable. The citizens of Chicago will tablet on the city council for funds for the erection of a De Sable memorial to take the place of the small factory at Michigan Blvd. and the Chicago river.

UNITED PUBLISHING COMPANY 145 West 45th Street, New York --- HOWARD U BEATEN IN CHICAGO SPORTS PART 1—PAGE 10 Mendez That Texas Bird Bill Tate Fight Broadcasters A GLANCE at the scoreboard gives us an idea of the ball players who are well known in the States who are spending the winter over in Cuba. 1 Perhaps the biggest surprise of all the years was on the tongue of all the fans along with Kirk, and after Rubs got the big to pitch Mendez shifted to short and then on me back to pitch for the Kansas City Monarchs. The old boy is still doing his best. Davis, outfielder, Powell and Foster, pitchers, and Larry American Giant of pitchers, and Larry Mendez Brown, all from the Chicago Giants of Chicago; Marcell and Lundy of the Atlantic City Bacharachs; Chaney White and Judy Johnson of the Hillary Burge, Wilson of Baltimore, Scelus and the old reliable John Henry Lloyd of the Lincoln Giants and Rile of Detroit are some of the well known players in the line-ups of the various clubs. --- A number of the Cuban Stars are also playing winter ball. Among the players are: Derek, Perez, Rojo, Rodriguez, Arango, Derek and others. --- WHILE the chilly winter winds whip around the corners of Chicago and the thermometer was down to eight below zero, we were the first to say that Turkey sent us by the director of athletics at Prairie View, namely, H. B. Evans. It arrived Dec. 27 and we fed him up until Saturday when he head from the neck and the boy dry-picked him. It hung in the window until late Saturday night with an appropriate sign on him: "To Fay. We had plenty of folls mouths watered." The wife had a tough time getting him in the oven he was so big, but when we got through New Year's day we had gained seven pounds on the day before. We folks down in the Lone Star state and the flowers that bloom this time of the year and the progress they are making. Twas a fine way to start the New Year. We'll say it --- BOXING fans who went to Joe Coffey's show at the Coliseum weren't so impressed the show's challenger of Jack Dempsey. Bill was matched in the windup of Coffey's ten four-round bouts against the management of Barney Abel and one who has recently graduated out of the amateur class. The bout was so unsatisfactory that he was told to chair the boxing commission and the purses of the two fighters. Tate should have been able to put Harris out and in so doing Harris regained the title. Cesal is a youngster. But Tate didn't, which leaves the fans under the impression that Bill has slipped away. Maybe it's old age getting Tate, or maybe it is inactivity. Then, again, it may be he both. THE promoters of boxing shows in the state of Illinois will most likely stop broadcasting shows from the ringside unless some move is made to acquaint the announcers of the match that they are doing much to hurt the cause. Between the bouts on many occasions these announcers have a bad habit of trying to be entertaining to their listeners and in so doing they show no shows or the bouts on the program. On last Friday night the announcer made the following statement: "These two haven't done anything much since they showed. Good thing they're not in the parlor or they would break up all the brap-a-brac." And other such remarks are frequent. The fellow who stays up late shows a live show and listens over the radio becomes disgusted and the next show finds him with his $3.30 still in his jeans, tigrating it isn't worth the white because the previous encounter reported Which all goes to recall a game last year at the Cubs' park when two football teams ballooned playing and the baseball team "they're all huddled up out there, evidently trying to get warm. Now they go up on you, and you go down, and they play pretty soon." And a guest at my home said to me, "What's the good of paying to see and hear that killed one fan? Interest in the game. Some of these announcers kill lots of fans' interest in the boxing game. We recall the direct from direct from the Wills-Firpo fight. Firpo wore every round up to the end, according to the broadcaster. Then came the end and the newspapers had stories were just to the reverse. Radios can be of a great service, but why put men who are not in the game or an event on the mique? Nashville Sigmas in Nashville, Tenn., Dec. 31—The Pit Beau Sigma five, after losing out in their first encounter of the season, culminated the game with a 10-0 win in the new year by staging a thrilling comeback and defeating the Kappa Alpha Pi quintet to the tune of 26 to 21, thereby making a difficult bid. The game was fast from the beginning to the end being marked by some rough play by both teams. Both teams made it to the final, with easy shots directly beneath the basket. The Kappa put up a game but losing fight, while the rejuvenated Sigma played a clawy brand of basketball, played with the Sigmaas leading 15-9. ```markdown ``` Boxing Netted State of Illinois $306,994 in 1927 Commission's Report Shows By FRANK A. YOUNG The Illinois athletic commission, and Samuel Luzzo, Mayo commission, with Walter George statement to the press late it made known to the public that had put into the state treasury. The Illinois athletic commission, Paul Prehn, acting chairman, and Samuel Luzzo, Mayor Thompson's appointee on the commission, with Walter George, secretary, gave out an amazing statement to the press late Thursday afternoon in which it made known to the public that boxing in the state of Illinois had put into the state treasury, a net profit of $306,994.95 from the 10 per cent tax extracted from the gate receipts of the various shows held in the state during the year 1927, the commission's fiscal year ending on Nov. 30. The total amount of taxes collected was $535,963.99. In other words, 507,940 people paid nearly $4,000,000 to see 156 boxing and wrestling shows. The Dempsey-Tunney fight at Soldiers' field, Chicago, in September brought in the biggest amount into the fight. The state's state $241,653.43 for that fight alone. That boxing was successful can be learned from the fact that the tax on boxing was $10,000,000 and be deducted and the state would still show a profit of $63,353.52, which is more than $10,000 above the cost of the operations, including boxing and protection of the state's interests in the big fight. A careful glance at the commission's report shows that 93 boxers clubs were suspended or fined or both. Mr. Prehn's report shows that the tax was far in excess of that of 1926. The commission's report follows: RECIPES State tax 13M exhibitions. $388,383.90 $333,033.90 Limited sales. 800.60 21 refences 2,883.00 31 lovers 2,883.00 40 wives 200.00 1,833.80 Fines 1,833.80 Telephone refunds 20.00 Total $399,633.80 EXPENDITURES Commission salaries $12,500.00 Secretary's salary 3,490.00 Office salaries 9,042.54 Inspectors 17,229.28 Furniture and fixtures 1,687.37 Printing and printing 3,546.40 Rent 2,025.00 Travel 6,029.15 Office expense 2,578.02 Office and catering 1,750.00 Postage 150.00 Bond premiums 290.00 Club or promoters 25 Referees 52 Refereeships 5 Announceers 18 Physicians 25 Repetition 64 Wrestlers 64 Managers 102 Seconds 294 # PENALTIES IMPORED Fooling 5 Physicity unit 2 Monthly unit 6 Staffing 7 Inadequate ability 0 Bai eyes 0 Performance 0 Tailable 18 Infraction of the rules 48 NOTICE TO BASKETBALL SCORERS Owing to the fact that some schools score basketball games different from others and that we are trying to have a uniform style, we are asking correspondents to send their games in as follows: Player's name, position, baskets, free throws and personal fouls.

The fact that Rollins got into the game as guard is shown in the foul column where Reed got three fouls called on him and was probably playing a rough game.

KELLUM A whirlwind finish in which Joe Lillard, all Iowa State Interscholastic forward from Mason City high, and "Tillie" Brookins of Wendell Phillips high fame each scored five field goals, gave the Savoy Big Five a 42 to 29 victory over the fast Howard university quintet Tuesday night in the first of a two-game series staged at the Brookins Mason City high, and "Tillie" Brookins of Wendell Phillips high fame each scored five field goals, gave the Savoy Big Five a 42 to 29 victory over the fast Howard university quintet Tuesday night in the first of a two-game series staged at the Savoy ballroom, 47th St. and South parkway. A crowd estimated at 1,200 persons, including many Howard alumni and easterners, led by Assistant Corporation Counsel Alaron Payne, former Savoy college captain, were on hand to greet the college ladies. The game was the most sensational and exciting it was seen in the league. The team scored in the score fails to tell how hard the two teams fought. The Savoy quintet, playing in the game flashed red on the outfield, never headed. The contest was extremely close in the first half. Four teams scored in the second half of tying the count. In the closing minutes of the first half Hinton's inability to cage three free throws prevailed. Close guarding on the part of both teams made shots at the baskets very difficult and kept the scoring down. The Savoy led the half time, 16 to 13. Coach Burr of Howard used nine men, substituting frequently to find a combination that would stop the team's shootout. Coach Shoutout, who scored eight ringers each, Sharing honors with Brookins and Lillard, who made the 1926 Iowa freshman quintet, were the team's most successful and former all-city guard on the Wendell Phillips five, which were runnersup for the city title against Lane Tech in 1925. Brookins from Phillips high from 1924 and 1925, also Wright, who captained Phillips high team in 1925. Bill Watson of Lane's 1924 city championship team from Phillips high from the city title, got into the game with one of his shots that brought the crowd to its feet. Lillard electrified the fans with his superb shot from the basket from all angles of the floor. Brookins was a close second. As the game opened the Savoy flashed into the lead on the throw mark. A minute later Brookins fouled Hinton. Hinton made good his try. Runaway was caught hold in the basket and the throw went very closely missed his chance to tie the score on the free throw. A foul on Jones gave Wright a chance to put his team a point airborne into the basket. He was good for a basket and he was good for a basketball. began a passing attack that simply brought the crowd to its feet. Goals within striking distance at the end of the half, 16 to 12. Both teams used strong defense. Occasionally Woods and Lillard scored two goals each. Capt. Coates and Woods did the best work for the "D. C." lads. Coates made two baskets and three free throws, while Woods dropped in four shots from difficult angles of the floor. Howard alumni here of the opinion that the long journey had been worth it, he was responsible for their defeat. Howard has played five games and lost two. The team is en route to Atlanta.

Baltimore, Jan. 1.--Showing marked improvement in their attack, the Baltimore Athletics easily defeated the highly touted Lincoln Kappas and the Baltimore Ravens during the first quarter did the fratern's offer any opposition. At that point the score was tied at 4 all. From that point, the Athletics had very much their own way. Half-time fouled I the Greeks leading, 16 to 4. Whittington, Wheatley and Harmon played best for the losers, while the Ravens featured their play. Lewis, John and Hackett were high scorers. Jackson and Lawson were brilliant on the defense.

Bill floundered around jabbed and hit him. But he has just graduated out of the amateur class just enough for the big draw to give him a draw which didn't impress the fans who came out to see it former challenger of Harry Wills and Battalite PETER Those at the ringside felt that Bill should have been able to put the youngster under the sod for the count of 10 long before the third round, but he was not able to do that. The Illinois athletic commission, Paul Prehn, promptly held up the purses of the two boxers. There were some high spots to the show that overawaked the main infielders, and they were doing about schooling at Bill Jones gym over on State and 28th St., staged a nice battle against Art Malte, late of the Irish republic. Both went at it like a duck and a duck, third round Battiste began to weaken under Art's body blows. In the first two rounds Battiste had the best of the argument, but he took so many wallops in the last two that he lost In the opening encounter Knockout White of New Orleans met a tough customer in Tim O'Keeffe of South Chicago. He was a man of pride, Ernie's island of paradise where the shamrocks bloom. Tim looked good in round one and started out very well, but the second round from Knockout's glove knocked a couple of teeth loose. Another sent two out into the ring and they bounced over into the timekeeper's lap. White continued to knock out some more, but couldn't put the white boy out of the ring. There were 42 rounds of flicking and the customers were well satisfied. Three thousand five hundred piled through the snow and the cold was on. Ernie Peters and Kid Jap, an Indian and a Japanese, stole the show. The Kid sent Ernie sprinkling water over the canvas with his hibiscus was up and at the Jap each time. By the end of the second Peters had evened things up, and the Jap all over the ring in the third and sent him to the canvas for the count of nine. Both were on their feet at the end of the frame and the decision went to Peters. Genero Fino and Sonny Lloyd fought a draw; Willie Brown outboxed Al Meyers; Morrie Gransberg and John Hammond; Blas Rodriguez outought Dave Aldelem; Ray Maxwell and Patsy Pollock drew.

Renaissance Shoot Goals and Win Out New York, Jan. 2.—The Renaissance five enjoyed a good Christmas holiday by tucking away two important victories over leading New York clubs on Dec. 26. The New York Aces bowed to the Harlem stars by the score of 40 to 28 before 2300 people in Renaissance fashion. The recent conquerors of Bob Douglas outfit, were subdued to the tune of 27 to 17 at Manhattan casino in the province of Philadelphia. The Harlem cages sailed through the New York Aces in easy fashion with "Cappi" Ricks, Flail and Mayers enjoying a "field day" on the individual scoring records at the expense of the visitors. The Brooklynites offered steadfast opposition to the Renaissance warfare, and that their recent win was not a nulce. The invaders were the first to score a field goal after ten minutes of play while the local aggregation got their two-point tally five minutes later. SATURDAY, JANUARY 7, 1928 CAGO 1927 A. A. U.

KELLUM** Uncovering a much faster brand of teamwork than before they won the southeastern college basketball championship last season, the Clark university quintet of Atlanta, Ga., snatched a 38 to 30 victory from the Evanston All Stars Wednesday night, Dec. 28. The game was played at the Savoy ballroom, 47th St. and South parkway, before a crowd of 3,000 persons, which turned out to greet the first championship college team to appear in Chicago. A striking demonstration preceded the game early in the day. The entire Clark team headed by Coach Sam Taylor, former football and baseball star at Northwestern university, presented the city council by Alderman Robert R. Jackson of the Third ward. After a short speech by Alderman Jackson, Mayor Michele Thompson greeted collegians and then welcomed them to the city. In welcoming the team, "Big Bill" Thompson that has never been given any team in the history of Chicago. As early as 7 o'clock fans began to watch at 9 o'clock when referee Paysour blew his whistle for the start of the game, more than 2,000 persons were tucked away in their seats, and the team was out for revenge. The two teams had met once last season and on that occasion Clark eked out a last minute play that Evanston had saved by the Evanston before a mally cheering gallery of Evanston and Clark rooters. At that time, the Clark team, playoff host Evanston, was swept off its feet by the Evanston attack and left the floor at the end of the first half, trullying by the score of 2 to 1, but Evanston was swept back, tackling every inch of the way and won. Wednesday night the Clark tossers displayed a much better brand of skill than the Evanston team took a lead at the outset and kept it throughout. Only once was the count tied. The half time saw Clark Evanston win, and the Evanston high school basketball star and lately captain of the Willforce university football team, with six singers and three field hockey players, to prevent a defeat, "Squint" Johnson, with three ringers, Hazzard with five field goals and a free throw winner. Ritchie's accuracy in shooting approached perfection. In the second half, he caged six haskets and three free throws in as many tries. "Squat" Johnson scored the first basket for his team. He took the ball from center and shot from the free throw line. A second jade Whitson tied the count. Clerk caught the ball off the backboard and dropped it through the hoop to unite the team. From this point the Cluck team was never headed. Clark outguested and outgenerated the North Shore team in every department of the game and was easily seen that the challenge of Fisher, Adams and Ritchie was no match for John son, Beck and Hazzard. Evanson made good six free throws out of chances, while Chick with this made good two. The game ended with Evanson fighting desperately to overcome the wide margin in the score. TALLADEGA IS WHIPPED BY ATLANTA FIVE Talladegn, Ala., Jan. 1. - Atlanta university quitter defeated the Talladegn five last Friday and Saturday, and won the pennsylvania.

Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY VICTORIOUS SOUTHERN QUINTET CLARK UNIVERSITY BASKETBALL SQUAD SPORT EDITOR'S MAIL Dear Mr. Young: I have read with interest your all-American selections. Accept my congratulations on your pick. To my surprise you did not mention a man from the Georgia-Carolina conference, why I do not know. I do not think, however, that you have covered a game in that conference. It has been my point of contention that Claflin, State, Faine and Morris have failed to come in for teams. They have produced men of all-American caliber year after year, yet they have failed to come in for teams. I fear, is unfair to the conference. Claflin, under a new coach, Bruce Taylor, Southern California star, tied Morla Brown, 6 to 5 and Morris Livingstone in the North Carolina conference. I cite this only as an example of the brand of football played in that conference. I seem to me that Morris should tick an all-star team from that conference, since it is too late now to place them on the all-American list of course, they merited positions. I think that you are sincere in your choice. You have given us the best opportunity that in the future take into consideration the Georgia-Carolina conference. Please accept this letter in the spirit in which I wrote to HOMES F. FRASER, Director of athletics, Booker Washington high school, Miami, Fl. Coach, Paul Quinn college, Waco, Texas. Dear Eay, Just a line to let you know that I am thankful of you first I want to congratulate you on your all-American selections. You cannot imagine how much I appreciate you. I am grateful to Mr. Kirven on your second and third teams, respectively, and giving Gen-Hope how much the mentions you developed in your suitable for your first team. Very truly yours, RAY T. SHEEPARD Conch. Langston, Oka. Dear Fear: I wish you the benefit of the athletic committee and the university for the honor which you conferred on the institution by selecting two members of our football team on your All-American selection. I heartily concur with your judgment in making William captain. As indicated in another communication, the Gardner was superior to Livingstone. However, the difference may be so small as to make it a matter of choice, the cause of Johnson of Langston as alternate on the second or third team. In him I think you have a real football player.—W.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER COMETS WILL NOT BE SET DOWN LOSERS Therefore Cincy Does Its Joneses Cincinnati, Ohio, Dec. 30—Two undefeated basketball teams met here tonight in what proved to be the best season. The Cincinnati Comets and the Toledo Center Pets, city champions of Toledo, were the opponents of the Toledo team until tonight, and DeHart Hubbard's Comets came out of the fray conquerors by a 26-22 score. The Toledo team housed the two teams when Referee, Ross blew the starting whistle. The Comets jumped into the lead on a goal by Bo Hulbert, the house guard, and the lodgers. Stuart, Toledo's wonderful center than caged one on a follow-up shot, and Jamerson got away with a three-point lead. Jamerson then made three field goals for the big five from Toledo, while Johnson made one for Cincinnati, giving the visitors a seven-point lead as the first quarter ended. After a minute's rest the Comets came back to life and Ude Johnson scored a three-point shot from near the center of the floor. Stuart, Jones, and Robinson found the hoop for markers, giving the hard got loose two field goals just as the half ended, and the teams walked off the floor with Toledo enjoying the long end of a 16-15 season. KANSAS BOY CAPTAIN OF TRACK TEAM Neither team slowed down in the second half. Coach Hubbard must have told his boys something be back on the floor and went into a five-point lead before the period was five minutes old. Johnson, Williams, and Bo Hubbard were responsible down on the floor and down on free throw by Staunton and a field goal by Robinson and the game was nip and kick. Both teams were fighting hard, but the Comets were holding off. They had to hold a two-point lead until the last minute of play when Sneaky Rodgers dropped in a long one from the center, giving them a four-point lead with the ball in Toledo's possession. --- Udice Johnson was the outstanding star tonight. He was in every play, time and made five out of eight shots from the floor. His standiness seemed to add balance to the Comet attack despite the absence of Wu Wen. Hutchinson, Kan., Jan. 3.—Chiffo Madison, senior in the local high school, son of W. O.

Time after time he broke up the inverter, the system of the invaders, took the ball and started a counter offensive. The tall Stuart was the mainpainting for Toledo. He is one of the best centers in the game. He can handle the ball, fashion, dribble and shoot. Jamerson also looked good for Toledo. Madison is one of the best ath- tle schools out at the high school. He holds the state record of 62 feet 61 inches, won last year in Em- pire, the Missouri valley in- ter's scholastic record for the foot 15½ inches. Comets (88) R. P. Toledo (22) Johnson f. ... 1 R.

The team will compete in the two halves will compete in a championship series the week of April 9. The annual singles and doubles Several universities have been trying to induce him to attend college. Among them are the University of Chicago, Emperior Teachers college, Pittsburgh (Kan.) Teachers college and others. Hutchinson is the school from which Sol Butler started on his athletic career. With the first round almost over the leaders haven't a safe enough lead to feel any too comfortable. They've played well, but they haven't with six games to play. Therefore the Bethany brothers must take five out of six to clinch the flag provided they win. They have two strong teams to beat in Quinn and St. Elizabeth, both of which have made a spurt in the last five weeks, and the finish will be interesting to watch.

All-Texas Interscholastic Elevens Named by Mohr After Championship Tilt FIRST TEAM By DEAN MOHR (Director of Athletics, Sam Huston College) On Dec. 26 at Corsicana, Team of Corsicana defeated the Galveston, 18 to 0. This victor championship of the 190 or more Jackson high has a clear title straight victories and no defeat to their opponents' six. On Dec. 26 at Corsicana, Tex., Jackson high school football team of Corsicana defeated the Central high school team of Galveston, 18 to 0. This victory gave Jackson high the state championship of the 190 or more Race high schools of Texas. Jackson high has a clear title to the state honors with eleven straight victories and no defeats, while they piled up 359 points to their opponents' six. Coach N. H. Pendleton of Jackson high, former Bishop college star, deserves great credit in developing such a machine as shown by the performance of the Corsicana team. The Corsicana team averaged about 150 pounds or less. Their success was due to a versatile attack, with four ball carrying backs and a defense that could not be penetrated by their heavier opponents. In a general way there were three districts in Texas—North, Central and South. Corsicana won the state championship by the elimination process, first winning the championship of the Central district, then defeating in successive weeks-end, TexasCornish (the North Texas district) and Galveston (champions of the South Texas district). As it was impossible for the writer to witness the vast state of Texas and witness the great athletic conference, competent observers have helped to make an impossible task not quite feasible. Mebane of Fort Worth and Quince of Corsicana were other good backs. Quarterbacks Hardee of Corsicana was a good strategist and a good performer. We seldom find both qualities combined in any one player not even in collisions. We have a great ball carrier. He could hit a line, skirt an end, throw passes receive them and kick. He was probably the greatest back in Texas high school. Smith of Corsicana is about the equal of Hardee. Both are brainy players and were used alternately at the quarterback position. Ends Langston of Galveston was the great end of the season. He was called to kick when holding down his own position. Williams of Fort Worth was either guard and Muskett of Fort Worth were either guard and Smith, halfback of Galveston was shifted to end because of his great work as a defensive end. "Tob" White of Coralina was the class of the line rippers. He was good on both defense and offence. He was good at yardage through the line and skirt ends for first down. His punting was with the skill of a veteran, having height, yardage and with an accuracy and according to the corner of the side line. He was the equal of two players on backing up the line. Other good fullbacks were Chase of Douglas (San Antonio) and Williams of Galveston. Jackson of Galveston played quarterback on the Central high team, but because of his defensive ability and his ability to plunge the line, he is given the fullback position on the second team. Halfbacks This is the hardest department of the group because of the horde of good backs. Williams of Galveston is shifted from fullback position to a better fullback, but as Williams the success of the Galveston team and a hard man to stop, he could not be omitted from the first team. Chandler played quarterback on the Arizona team and was a single threat player. He was a better performer than a strategist, therefore he is given the other back position with Williams. Fontno, Curtis. Nash of Dallas. Arkansas Ch Won by PL Arkansas Championship Won by Philander Smith By CLARENCE T. SMITH Little Rock, Ark. Jan. 2.'—(Special) After waiting to see two post-season games that were tentatively scheduled but not played, we will now make a summary of the football season just closed by the colleges of Arkansas. The championship was won by the Philander Smith Panthers, coached by Nelson A. Smith, who played football at Brown with "Ink" Williams. The Panthers won the championship by defeating the Arkansas Baptist Buffaloes. 12 to 0, on a muddy field on Armlattice day. The Philander eleven opened the season with a 26-to 9 victory over the Arkansas A. M. & N. team of Pine Bluff. The Philander Smith team was not scored on by a team of the state this season. The Panthers received a setback from the Rust college Bearcats in a hard fought game on Thanksgiving day by a 14-to-0 score.

Quarterbacks Hardee of Corsicana was a good staffist and a good performer. We sold them, find both qualities combined in any one player not even in college much less high school. Hardee is a great ball carrier. He could hit a line, skirt an end, throw passes, give them and kick. He was prob- ably the greatest back in Texas high schools. Smith of Corsica is about the equal of Hardee. Both are brainy players and were used alternately at the quarterback position. Ends Langston of Worth was the great end of the season. He was called back to kick when not holding down his end position. Williams of Corsica was a sure tackler and the fact he weighed only 140 pounds. Johnson, January of Austin and Muse of Fort Worth were other good ends. Smith, halfback of Galvanet, of his great work as a defensive end. Tackles McKinney of Corsica and Adams of Fort Worth were the best tackles in the state. Both were terrors to their opponents, breaking through and playing plays, they could get hurt. McGiffin of Dallas and Johnson of Beaumont were other good tackles. Guards Slaughter of Corsica and Eaton of Galvanet were the class of guards. Their aggressiveness made them as conspicuous as the backs. Sercy and the advantage of the equal of the first two guards. Centers Moore of Dallas was the best in the state. He was a good passer and could hold his own on defense. Scurry of Corsica, maybe considered a better player than Moore, but the advantage over the other centers. The players chosen have played consistently all season and the schedules was given consideration. The Texas high school championship game may be played a week earlier in 1953 so that the Texas champions may meet Summer high school of St. Louis, Wendell Phillips of Chicago, center of Louisville, Chillier of Glenburg, W. Va., or the champions of Oklahoma in a Christmas day game. Hicks is one of the greatest chargers ever developed in the Southwest and many tacklers receiving All-American mention haven't anything on this player. Ollison is a great player, both on the offense and defense, and has been a great player with Captain Hicks. Jeffries, veteran Arkansas Baptist tackle, is shifted from tackle to guard, with Russ of Oklahoma in the other guard position. Both demons on the defense and can be counted on when a hole is needed "Slim" Brandon, Lanky Philander and Kyle Buffalo. In this assignment, Brandon is in a class himself as a passer and plays a good game both on the offense and defense. The quarterback job goes to Captain Buffalo. Buffalo is a great field general and a triple threat man. George Davies, who played quarterback for Philander Smith, is shifted great open field runner and puts up great interference. He deserves All-American mention. Captain Miller of Shorter gets the other halfback position and is hard to stop once he started. "Horse" Barrett of Philander Smith was the best line plungermate and is given the fullback assignation. Barrett is a good forward passer. The writer joins the chorus of those who say that the football season in the South and Southwest should begin in October and end the season in December. The best football weather this season has been in December. WEST VIRGINIA Mrs. Maggie, Robinson, Miss Mattie Black, Mrs. Nettie Warner of Ashland, Miss. Robert, Mrs. Elizabeth of the C. M.

The winners displayed a great running offense that completely bevelled their heavier opponents and was responsible for the three touchdowns scored by the Jackson high school. In the first quarter, Corsicana won the toss and elected to kick. In the first few minutes of play it seemed as if the Bears were much for the Bears, completing many good plays and making three first downs in succession. The Bears, however, soon began to hold for to punt. With the ball in Jackson's hands, it was soon evident the speed of the Bears was sufficient to equal and overcome the pressure that the other team possessed. The Bears, using the Lindberg formation, gained consistently through the line and around the ends. In the second quarter the Galveston team solved this formation and the Bears were forced to punt also. The first quarter ended with the ball in possession of the Galveston team on their own 15-yard line. Jackpin Scores On the first play in the second quarter the Calveston team punted to Corsicaian's 30-yard line and the Bears then opened a sustained drive which carried the ball from Calveston's 45-yard line over the goal line for the first touchdown of the game. The Bears was blocked. Jackson high school kicked off to Calveston and the ball was returned from their own 5-yard line to the 30-yard line. Neither team sorted to punting. The second touchdown came as a result of a punt blocked by the Bears deep in Calveston's territory. The punt was batted down and soiled to the 6-yard line. This point the Bears easily carried the ball over the goal line. The attempt for the extra point failed. After the second touchdown the Bears played a defensive game and the half ended with no more scoring. Galveston Passed Galveston kicked off to Corsicana at the beginning of the third quarter, and Galveston scored the 5-yard line and returned it to the 30-yard line. The effort to gain through the Galveston line failed and were forced to punt. Galveston scored the 5-yard line and were resorting to passing. In the last part of this quarter the Galveston team attempted many passes and the quarter ended with the ball in the session of Galveston on their own 12-yard line. Or the first play in the fourth quarter was in the Galveston line out to the middle of the field. The Bears soon began to find large holes in the Galveston line and once more put a touchdown on the pump kick goal was wide. Corsicana then kicked off to Galveston. Here the Galveston team began passing but the ball came up before they could force for a touchdown. The ball lacked only a few inches of the goal line when the game ended. In the game the ball was over before they could force for a touchdown. The ball lacked only a few inches of the goal line when the game ended. In the game the ball was by far the star of the game. He excelled in every department of the game, passing, punting and in return punts. For the Galveston team, Williams were the individual stars.
