DEMAND PUBLIC PLACES BLOT OUT COLOR LINE 16 GET HARMON AWARDS WANT PUBLIC PLACES OPEN TO ALL RACES Citizenship Crusade Hits Color Line Breaking Down Fallacy In making a public acknowledgment to the persons, and organized bodies that are following suit in breaking down the fallacy that there is a special plea to all American citizens, regardless of color, to enter into every place that is opened to the public. In making a drawback to the progress of some peoples. They fear that something will happen if they enter institutions, patronized usually by persons of white skin. In making a drawback to the public and that they are a part of the public. This point was made by the committee. They declared that if foreigners are persecuted in the United States, American citizens are welcomed. Several prominent persons throughout the country have offered to aid the committee in their drive to open a museum under the United States flag to full-fledged American citizens. In the event that dark Americans encounter any difficulty in being served, for example, they test the Constitution for their rights as American citizens. Stimulate Children This plan should be adopted by every liberal-minded person that is interested in getting the best out of life and securing a safer domestic life. It is also the duty of parents to stimulate their children to believe that they are as good as any others, the committee, in speaking to representatives of the presented issue. So keen is the interest, it was reported, in the movement, that the committee has been authorized to send a representative dinner in order that they will encounter persons that they will not encounter any difficulty if they go on. It is believed by the interested persons that such concentrated efforts by these individuals will do a great deal in destroying the no-confidence by some that there is a distinct place for every racial group in America.

C., Jan. 13. —The ill-fated venture of Marcus Garvey, which ended in his being sent to the federal penitentiary in Atlanta and his deportation to the British West Indies with the commutation of his five-year sentence, was recalled when Senator Robert F. Wagner, Democrat, of New York, introduced in the senate last Thursday a bill for the relief of certain seamen who are judgment creditors of the Black Star Line, incorporated, for wages earned. **Star Line Defaulted** The Black Star line in 1923 deposited with the United States shipping board the sum of $21,624.66 toward the purchase of a ship. The Black Star line defaulted. The United States ships pay this money to the credit of the Black Star line with the treasurer of the United States. The bill of Senator Wagner would impose on his portion of this sum of $21,624.66 as may be necessary to pay the judgments of certain seamen who are duly legal judgment holders. There are two judgments for wages against the Black Star line. One is in the case of John O. Garrett. It is for $5811.75. It was obtained in the case of Robert F. Wagner. The other judgment is in the case of Albert A. Zink and others. It is for $1,203.33. It was obtained in the United States district of New York, Dec. 16, 1923. The United States shipping board would be authorized and directed by this bill to pay out of the money collected by the court in which the judgments were rendered, the amount of each judgment together with the costs and interest accrued to the date of the judgment, and the identifying these judgments. A certified copy of each judgment would have to be furnished to the United States shipping board before any shipment of goods. The Black Star line is a corporation existing under the laws of Delaware. It had for its purpose the acquisition, and management of the ships, and the ultimately intended to transport to Africa men and material to build up a great empire—the dark race, the mails to defraud in connection with the sale of stock in the Black Star line at 15, a share. Garvey served two years and nine months of his service in the portionation to the West Indies in November. He is now in Jamaica.

WINSTON HARRINGTON (Staff Correspondent) Memphis, Tenn., Jan. 13.—The tangled affairs of the Fraternal and Solvent Savings Bank and Trust company has caused such a sentiment throughout this section that the Delta Penny Savings bank of Indiana, Miss., established since 1904 and once the pride of Dixie, was forced to close its doors following a similar run on the institution.

PROHIBITION CAUSED DROP IN LYNCHING: KELLY MILLER Washington, D. C., Jan. 13.—According to Kelly Miller, Howard university professor of sociology and a publicist, in a letter to the editor of the Washington Post appearing last Sunday, prohibition is the cause of the reduction in the number of lynchings in recent years. "Lynching" he says, "reached its climax in 1892, with 255 victims. Since that time there has been a popular and rapid do Seventh Day Adventist church, 46th St. and St. Lawrence Ave., where solemn ceremonies were held Tuesday afternoon. In the procession were frman from five different stations, including Engine PROHIBITION CAU IN LYNCHING Washington, D. C., Jan. 13.—ard university professor of soclc to the editor of the Washington prohibition is the cause of the lynchings in recent years. "Ly climax in 1892, with 255 victim been a regular and rapid decrease to something like twenty a year. In 1892 there were 100 white and 155 Negro victims. Since that time there has been a similar decline in both races, although the whites have done the most rapidly. "During the past 40 years something like 1,000 whites and 3,000 Negroes have died at the hands of the mob. So grave is the iniquity of lynching that the rest of the nation has been constrained to call public attention to it in several of his annual messages. "I am convinced that the decline in lynching is due primarily to the restriction in the use of intoxicating liquors. The figures will show that it has followed closely the rise of prohibition laws in the southern states." "The South, where the Negro majority lives, the bully lynchings occur, had enacted local and state prohibition long before the adoption of the 18th amendment. In 1920 the number of lynchings had increased since that time, under federal prohibition, it has fallen below 20. "It is perfectly natural that free flowing liquor would add to the heat of the outbreak of any kind occurred in a community, in antiphrothication days, the police authorities would first order the closing of all saloons. This would be done by itself and treated as a separate civil. It is but a symptom of the spirit of lawlessness with which the American government has for systematic and not symptomatic treatment. This most virulent form of lawlessness shows itself, though with not so great vehemence, in the 14th, 15th and 18th amendments."

Warley Delivers Address “Our Second Emancipation” Jan, 1, New Year's day, at Wendell Phllipa’bigh school, Wiliam Warley lof Loulsvilie, Ky. electrified his au- falence with ® striking address _on “Our. Second Emancipation.” ‘The meeling was under the auspices of the Third Ward Women's Political club and Stra. Ida B: Weils Barnett, the president, was in the chair. ‘Mr. Warley besart his address with ja review of Maco history since eman- cipation, in fact from the landing of the first ahipload of slaves in 1620. He pointed out that the Race had fought with valor in the Revolution ary war, in 1812, in the Civil war, the Spaniah-American war, and ° the ‘World war, then asked why we had ot fought for ourselves and, our Tights as we had for and under white nen, "Ho reviewed the Bistory of the Antislavery. movement _ inaugurated by, financed by and fought by white men and Women. He called the ius- {rious roll of Willlam Loyd Garrison, Wendell Phillips, John’ Brown, Har- riet Beecher Stowe, Charies Sumner, all of whom fought, suffered and some of them dled that our Race should be PTS, anewsd that, abraham inies emancipated the slaves as a war measure. Ho sald that in all that perfod none of our Face hed orisi- hated aay movement to free himself, save only the Nat Turner rebellion, fehich failed because of the treachery of one of his own Race. Not Yet Free ‘Mr, Warley sald the Emancipation proclamation of 65 years ago, which fre celebrated was a physical eman- cipation: that we usually rehearse Jour progress by telling of the wealth accumulated, our education progress in the professions, ‘business | aod churches, but that houses, lands, au- tomobiles, banks, Insurance compa- nies, stores, etc, ald not make © eace tree. “We are not yet free" because our Race does not enjoy the rights and lberties of free men and women. We have not yet spiritual and mental freedom and unill we have this—we fare not yet free. As long as we are [distranchised, lynched, segresated, we eannot say we are free. . “We therefore need a second errian- cipation,” aad Mr, Warley, “and we must do it ourselves for ‘ourselves He who would be free indeed, himselt ‘must strike the blow.” Efforts for real freedom had been struck from ‘me to time in the 65 years.past. He remembered the Afro-American coun: cll, the Niagara movement, the Equal Rights Teague, etc. ail initiated by far-seeing men and women of, the Race. But all of them were dead for Jack of support by the people for sshom they were started. Only the N, A. A. C, P. was alive today, at- tempiing the work of freeing. our Race from the evils which beset us Je has ‘a: white president, & walt chairman of its board, etc, and he ‘wonders again it it is impossible tc get the support of the Race for any- thing started by the Race, and again declares that we are not yet free £0 Tong as tt takes white leaders to get Jour support for Race movements. ‘Mr, Warley concluded by urging racial unity as the beginning of our Second emancipation to the end of Securing racial freedom. He again emphasized that the Race cannot be free so long as there is any place in our country where our Race cannot /mhare in all the rights and privileges of other American citizens, and that ‘we alone raust make the fight for this freedom of the. soul as well as the body. ‘ A Fine Audience Although it was a bitter cold .nfeht land Mr. Warley was suffering from a Rae at caer acai eee ii Ukr saber alia narod Paes Mais oo 4 he ee renee 2 aa eee ee eee = a an 4 3 i : ae = rer eet | ea ine ee | i ee hy ee et 88 = a oa ae Fein St Ba eer aan eras.

You can't be well if your digestion is bad: you are to get sick unless you relish your food, digest it properly, and keep your bowels regular. Tanlac has a wonderful record as a root cause of many years' standing. Mr. John F. Meijgen of Milwaukee, the chief officer, says: "For three years I had severe gas pains. Before finishing the first bottle, I had considerable relief. I have to stomach trouble." If you suffer from gas, pains in the stomach or bowels, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, have no appetite, can't sleep and are nervous and all run-down, it's a sign of a serious illness. Medicine, made of roots, herbs and barka—nature's own remedies. Get a bottle 'from' your drugsit today, money back if it doesn't work. you.

Back, running smoothly. I have a little time to write you about the do- nation of Nashville, Tenn. We spent our New Year's here and if it hadn't have been our own joint I to us as we have a nice consolent bunch of people in the little company we are a happy New Year for our selves. They need a lot of things here in this town. There is no need in saying we have a nice joint. I want things from a hotel with accommodations to a civilized policeman. Lyric theater which could be made at a very little cost to the man- agement, has been let take care of itself at a very low cost to the man- agement. Come on, Mr. Star, remember you are the president fellow. Take a look back-stage your self some time. I hardly think you can do it. I don't think you are the man to stand by and see your shows suffer for want of them. You can so easily remedy things. --- Well, now to our new show, "Oh. You Mr. Rare Back." we opened the door, and nicely, as I expected it would, for we have all experienced people. Now we have all experienced trail in fine form with no rough edges. Our chorus? Oh, boy! If you want to see a dandy little chorus just take a look at the back. About our chorus girls and boys I guess you all think I am partial to the chorus. Well, to tell the truth, I am not a chorus girl. I about little devil works so hard and deserve so much credit—so much more than the majority of us are wont to give up. We are not them, such as "Oh you're nothing but chorus girl!" and "stay in a chorus room." And other nasty little remotes, such as But if you don't think the chorus girl or boy is an important to your life, you don't think who thinks he or she is, just take the chorus out and set it aside and let Mr. or Mrs. or Miss Great-A-I am step up to show that same show without that same little chorus and, oh, boy, how your box of toys have been going big with, with that chorus behind you, will die and go fatt without them, remember that it takes each and every one in a show to make that happen. I wrote my dear friends, Whitney and Tutt, a letter quite a while ago, but to date I have received no answer from boys. I do feel somewhat hurt over it. You know I kind of set you two apart from a lot of folks as two of my friends, so I will look for a letter soon. Next week brings Miss Babe Brown a visit to New Orleans' company here to the Lyric. The show is billed like a circus, with very fast paper, Word and music, but you know you will keep the good work in. Miss Herietta Leggett and her husband Don left this city this week to Cuba. Sam Kuhn gave a statement back stage tonight and in one of his videos, he said "$42.56" and was showing it to some of us, and my friend. I won't call his name, looked at it and asked Kuhn what he was talking about. I started to tell them she "came after Math and joined in Dependence," but John Mason said don't do that. Norance is bliss it's better to keep your mouth shut than to have to nurse a bite up-head. He was best of some of you little "sweethearts" who have friends on either one of these three shows in Cuba. So sweetheart went with this or that company because "so-and-so" went, when the big show split up into three shows. So different shows are there through no choice of their own. Jack Goldberg to the best advantage of three shows. So rest easy, little dears. If you had them when they came here you still have them, as I have noted no BILLY ARNTE Billy Arnle and his gang are working on an Ony show. It is called the R. E. Browning Blues and White behind the State of Oklahoma. Billy says everything is rosy on the show and all are working harmoniously with the former and 15 Race performers, with Billy doing the comedy lead. 4MA" BAINEY IN KANSAS CITY S. H. GRAY REVERSES S. H. Gray, the characteristic singer and musical comedy producer, met with the backing to his original form. S. H. has written an act for himself about himself and he calls it "From the stage back to his original form." He has a scream from start to finish. He radiates a Happy New Year to the fans. He wrote "Wizked Tins" for the Silas Green show of 1926. T. O. B. A. (Theater Owner' Booking Association) ALL ACTS, COMPANIES AND THEATER MANAGERS Communicates with T. O. B. A., Suite 1215-B-51 W.

Looking Some folks spend so much of their time looking, backward that when they turn about they will be in direction in which they were --- Going back to the past is like a game and about in an old garret, you are a back dusty or get cob-webs on your brain. Act now, we look back and turned to play again; that means that a guy can't look fresh at the same time. Salem T. Whitney This movie is the most valuable thing the past has to offer, and a guy should tote that along with him not to have to go back to look it over. Some of our great men were so far ahead of the game that fish stop to look at what they have said, written or accomplished, we are looking backward, we are only catching up. We often hear talk of reviving this the past kill of reviving have been very few successful revivals, a popular musical comedy, and to try make it stage a come-back is asking too much of the dead past unless it was far behind. "When a producer holds the smelter, you may know he has reached his peak, shot his bolt; the bottom has dropped from his think-pan and his eyes may know he has reached the play, it is his brain that is in need of resuscitation. He upgrades you up for a hot-dog and then attempts to entertain you with the oft repeated successes, a post-mortem examination is unnecessary, that joekoele's brain does not need to carry the coffin to the cemetery. 'Bolangles' Robinson has created a lot of publicity for himself, but not really run backward. No matter what the position of his back, he actually goes down, snow, hall or sleet, beats against a guy's face with so much force that he press on. That is not walking backward, that is backing forward. The guy keeps going deep forward until you arrive. Like a jodeko learning to ride a bicycle, we generally go the direct way. But sometimes we look in our thoughts will climb in that direction. If we continue to look down, our bicycle will climb in a thermometer on a cold day. If we look forward, our thoughts adhere to backward and the going is easy in either direction. The offender and longer you look backward, the faster you will kiss the bottom or bump into your mental tombstone quicker the bootlegger can reach his best customer. It takes the courage of a David, the city of the Canadian mounted police and the optimism of a race track to enable one to continue to look forward, ruin and ashes of ruin. But if one can accomplish the feat, one is sure of the. The backward view has no perspective. You know what is past. The has been burned. Lamenting the past is just as profitable as trying to get your money back from an old ansh-can. The present is all you own. It is your only reliable hank; from the future. Harry Fiddler The lone wolf in vaudeville, wrote us a nice letter saying he was norry about the case of Harry and regret that we did not meet him, but glad to know he is so busy. Ever since the case of Hiddle and he going it alone and making good. One of his press notices reads as follows: so uniquely funny and delightfully entertaining that one is tempted to so that Harry may overstay his allotted time. He imitations have seldom been equated by the vaudeville on the bill." Ruby Shelton is doing well in Indianapolis.

SEASON OF 1928 TO BRING MUCH SUCCESS SEASON OF 1928 TO BRING MUCH SUCCESS Were I to take my little Corona in hand and write as I have seen come to me, I would have been the season of 1927, quite discouraging. I dare my papers over the country would cheerfully ullize what I see. I would have known they know without my telling them how conditions have been the past year, but I would have said that the automobile has helped kill the amusement game in some sense, along with other lines of business. I would have proved to me. Yea, the automobile has helped kill the amusement game. What is to follow the automobile, and what is to be left to wiser heads to figure out. There was a time when all lines of amusement thrived, shows made up of a variety of games, one couldn't get a seat 10 days in advance of the shows coming to the city, one couldn't schedule to play the world, in front of so many soaring its an impossible ability to keep up with it. Yay and improvements in many areas of the city, especially in der if the public undergoes, are tiring of amusements. I wonder, too, what might be their next hankinings, they know themselves what they really do want. Undoubtedly some of them will be new toy. After the novel of it has worn off it is cast as salable, a wall set up for something of a new nature, a newness that can attractiveness, a newness.

Paramount The Popular Race Record MUSE'S LETTER My Dear Bear Winston-Salem, N.C.

Now when I say we have a real orchestra of 10 pieces, I don't mean a real group of artists that are a sensation at every stand. We have in the distinction of the colored white society people on many stands down here for private dances and the Colored Society people on many stands down here that precedes the show. They are using all special arrangements, and I am sure they are using the Armstrong that they have nicknamed him Ruben "Armstrong." A real fine man you know I have found many good ones.

DOUGLASS HIGH CARRIES OFF THE TITLE New York Juniors Win Track Meet New York, Jan. 8.—Five junior high school records fell and one was tled yesterday afternoon at the sixth annual P. S. A. L. junior high school indoor track and field meet held at the 13th Regiment armory, Brooklyn. Foremost among the record breakers was William Sinnowitz of pub. school, 139, Brooklyn, who heaved the eight-pound shot 51 feet 3% inches, to better the old record by 2 feet 2% inches set on Jan. 24, 1925. Sinnowitz, a short, stocky youth, also bettered the old mark on his first trial throw. Over 2,500 persons witnessed the meet, which drew more than 500 contestants. Awards were given for first, second and third place in each event. Those were donated by the Herald Tribune. Old records got their worst beating in the relay races, where three out of four fell, the 820-yard unlimited chasing race the only one to stand untouched. **Lincoln's kicks** the athletes put featured the field events, the standing b jump for 90-pound boys was closely contested. The old record of eight feet was when Leschinsky of Isaac Remsen answered the cheers from the mezzanine with a fine leap of eight feet. **Lincoln's** Brooklyn 149, scored a victory in the high jump with a jump of four feet nine inches. Kelly, a member of Mingen, was next in line. In the 120 pound class, Lipschitz, Paul Hoffman and Partashnick of Clark, fought it out with Leschinsky, the winner, with a jump of five feet one inch.

HE AIN'T GOING TO WALK NO MORE THE FEDERAL MILITARY AVIATION CORPS Correct Rating for Tennis Players in Chicago Needed When the alumni of Tuukeges read in The Chicago Defender that the fault of the alumnus of our schiehe was that they didn't ap- pear the book, they read and read about Knute Rockes of Notre Dame getting a fine car and BY RACQUET WIELDER As Chicago's tennis players hung up their racquets and settled down to a winter's meditation on "who won and why," they were suddenly confronted with a rating published in which the mysterious rating committee announced Chicago's so-called best players. The term "mysterious" is used deliberately, for the members of the American Tennis association here were more than perplexed to learn of the existence of the so-called "local rating committee." Investigation revealed some very strange facts. A gentleman who demonstrated the necessity of purpose, one who admits that he "isn't sure that he belongs to the American Tennis association," and in fact doesn't, has created an imaginary "rating committee" and imaged the rating of players for 1927. Both the members of organized and of unorganized tennis were mixed up and numbered in this "rat committee" that was formed and reason for mixing the two groups the "chairman" of the "rat committee" said that these ratings were not required to encourage players in the unorganized group. The process of reasoning followed to achieve such a conclusion was protested and the "chairman" said that the players should be given separate ratings. That is, the organized tennis players should be given a rating based on play in the tournament and the players by the method adopted to make the present ratings—that of strolling along the Washington park tennis courts and observing players in action—given there by means of guess work. Nothing could be more ridiculous than these ratings. In the first place the "rating committee" admits that the players involved in the official rating committee in Chicago. What right has any individual, unauthorized, to send tennis ratings to the press from the rating committee. What could be more important than the 22 men tennis players and 20 women tennis players in Chicago. The American Lawn Tennis association (white) has 12 clubs in its Chicago association. From the 12 clubs, 10 men and 10 women, in report 45, men and 20 women, and in the daily press only this week, 10 men and five women were rated. The American Tennis association has two clubs, 10 men and 10 women in its Chicago group, and they had only three sanctioned tournaments in 1927. Thirty-four men and 14 women participated in these tournaments, and they had only women respectively receive ratings? This wholesale effort to rank players has resulted, as far as quality is concerned, in many players being given a group of personal attention, with varied degrees of success, to play tennis. To consider as a winning tennis player a duo to whom the team is accustomed to playing a ball into the net as a means of getting an imposing bay window access to make the term "banking save" more worth applying to. Persons who do not become a member of clubs under the auspices of the A. T. A. have no chance of winning a tennis competition it would be considered impossible—in fact such stupidity not be considered at all, group this jest makes us ridiculous. These stupid and unofficial ratings further have the effect of discouraging players to enter organized tennis play, for why should they exert them when ratings are given indiscriminately to anyone who owns a tennis racquet. Instead of encouraging unattached tennis players, the "rating discouraging organized players, if the report were to remain unchallenged. After the ratings were released, the writer telephoned the "chairman" of the tennis association, and the records for tournament play were. He didn't know-exactly, but thought that most of them were at the home of one of the prominent tennis players that home and secured these records which had positively and upon con- about the coach of Georgia Tech getting a Buck sedan, the Tuskegee folks decided that Cleve Abbott, late of South Dakota, who has succeeds in straight years of football without a defeat, they bought Cleve a car. fession of the "committee," not been used to make the ratings. The "committee" generously says that if the player is not satisfied with his or her rating, for them to challenge them whom they think they can beat and give the returns of a two-out-of-three match of this type to the committee. Can you imagine such a challenge you could imagine taking of tennis players? How ridiculous to ask a player to make a personal challenge to receive a rating which is already determined by tournament activity. A player has not been in tournament play he has no right to any rating whatever. You can to the tennis players to defend themselves against this type of unauthorized publicity. A careful review of the records for 1927 by a representative of this publication has given the following as the correct Chicago, Chicago, Chicago. These ratings are not, however, official, as they now stand. As a means of helping, if it is possible, to correct some of the blunders of the tennis rankings, the Chicago, Chicago, Chicago. These ratings have been carefully compiled and it is suggested that the two club, Prairie Tennis club and Washington Park club, club, review and check ratings have been below and adopt them as official. It is further suggested that in the future either an official rating committee be appointed by the clubs or a third should issuance of any rating whatever.

CLEVE ABBOTT WILL RIDE IN KING'S STYLE Alumni of Tuskegee Gives Him Auto Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Jan. 7.—Football has its rewards other than victories on the gridiron and the cheers of enthusiastic fans. And one who knows that now is Cleve L Abbott, resourceful coach of the Tuskegee Tigers, for four years undefeated on the gridiron of the nation. Coach Abbott is now driving a handsome 1928 model Chevrolet sedan, a gift of admiring alumni, faculty and friends of Tuskegee institute. Presentation of the keys to the car was made by Dr. Robert W. Moton, principal of Tuskegee institute, at a game where Moton thanked the Tuskegee mentor not merely for the victories which his charges had won, but also for the spirit of sportmanship which he had demonstrated. The student boy as a whole, Coach Abbott, deeply moved by the presentation, expressed appreciation for the gift, and declared that he could not have been his without the whole-hearted support of the principal, alumni, faculty and students of Tuskegee. It was no empty meaning that the audience received such a kindness, Coach Moton, sang "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow." Under the tutelage of Coach Abbott, who came to Tuskegee in 1923, he played 45 football games. For the first four-tied and one was lost. The one defeat suffered in four years of competition was early in 1923, when Morehouse played 9 to 0. During this four-year period Tigers have scored 1,246 points against 121 for their opponents. Athenians Split Even in 2 Games Baltimore, Md., Jan. 7.—The Baltimore Athletes divided their games of the past week. Monday they met the Quaker City Elks in Philadelphia, losing by a 39 to 15 count. Friday on the home court they defeated the Monumental Elks, 25 to 22. Monday's contest found the Greens meeting a more experienced and rugged aggregation. While managing to hold their own for 30 minutes of the game, the power of the old panther machine asserted itself, and the team's seldom seen on any court and Davis giving an exhibition of the most accurate kind of shooting, the Athenians were left far behind in the closing minutes of play. The half the Quakers led at 9 to 5. # Quaker City Elks (18) B. F. P.

It might be said here that at no time since the league has been organized has such harmony been seen nor such a businesslike procedure taken place. Much credit is due President William C. Hueston, who, outside of the baseball world, is a regularly elected commissioner of the grand lodge of Elks and grand master of the Odd Fellows of the state of Missouri, a lecturer, an attorney and, according to his daughter, is a pretty good cook when at home. A man with all those qualities or better yet, professions, might be expected to rule, and rule he did, but the man was most pleasing to those assembled. The following club owners were in attendance: R. T. Jackson, of the Irvingham Black barons; L. M. Lochman, of the Mckinley Q. J. Gilmore, of Kansas City, Mo., who is secretary and treasurer of the league, as well as the director of publicity; William E. Trimble of Princeville; William A. Browne of American Giants; Steve Pierce and William Moiesey, representing the Detroit Stars; S. M. Terrell of the Cuyahoga Amusement company of Cleveland; William W. Kent and Dr. G. B. Key, of the St. Louis Stars; Thomas, Wilson, owner of the Nanhuva Elite Giants, and Constable Harry Sinclair, sergeant-at-arms of the meeting. After a few words of welcome by President Hueston on Thursday, the able Indiana jurist throw a bombshell into the water, the most impiring addresses, ever given before any body of baseball men and in this address were some recommendations that even surprised the member of the league. The president had cleanly told them had not been so "dumb" in baseball matters as some thought, that he had been able to sense faulty situations to such an extent that these recommendations were many things that had embarrassed them during the past few years, and the speech was met with a five-minute applause. None of the matters hit in the president's address was the conduct of the ball players, the large number of players carried on the pay roll, the umbrella situation, the raising of the entry fee, the subject of fines and the presence of men connected with the game. The speech was accepted by the committee appointed by acting President R. T. Jackson, who took charge of the conduct during the address of Judge Hueston. The report of the secretary and treasurer, Q. J. Gilmore, was read, also the report of the world series, the report of the auditing committee and that committee reported back to the directors and the report was okehed and adopted. The following clubs will be in the 1928 circuit: American Giants, Kansas City Monarchs, St. Louis Stars, Detroit Stars, Birmingham Black Barons and the Cuban Stars. The team was referred to the teams was referred to the president of the league, who was instructed to visit that city and act upon his findings. The same was done about the owner, Wilson, seeks to be an associate club, but may make the eighth club in the circuit in case Memphis falls to qualify. The owner of the Memphis Red Sox was not present at the meeting nor was he represented by proxy. Mr. Wilkerson acted as representative of the Cuban Stars of Havas, who are owned by August Mollus. A joint meeting of the two leagues, the National and the Eastern league, will be held this month, the date of the said meeting to be named by President Isaac Nutter of the Eastern league, and Judge Hueston, president of the Western league. All minor detaials claims against different club owners and against the league were voted on and disposed of. The meeting terminated after a rift between the newspapers for their part in the success of the league in 1927. Most of the directors got away for home Friday night. Judge Hueston, president of the Western league, and J. L. Wilkerson remained over for a couple of days to straighten out some matters pertaining to their clubs and several talks of trades were decided upon nothing definite was decided upon. The president of the league will leave for Cleveland in a few days and from there will go to Detroit to attend the sum of the trip in these columns in the near future. "I received one of the most enthusiastic, yet the most orderly, receptions by the citizens of the little British Honduras that I have yet witnessed, said the soldier making a good will flight through the Central American countries. Perhaps many do not know that this splendid didtribute goes to members of our group who inhabit this country. We all feel proud that we have done this without question and in all earnestness." --- WATCHING CORE BOUND # Standing Havana ..... 615 Almendares ..... 606 Cuba ..... 606 # Batting Havana ..... 624 Almendares ..... 642 Cuba ..... 624 # Fielding Pitches Record O.

SPORTS BENSON WILL LEAD THE1928 CLARK SQUAD Is Re-elected; Team Loses 3 Stars Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 7.—The Clark University Athletic association entertained the 1927 Panther football squad here with a banquet in Warren hall. The re-election of Arthur Benson as captain proved to be very popular. As a leader he has been first class and his play has won him much praise. ```markdown ``` He also placed on Coach Harvey's team as an all-Southern center. His contagious enthusiasm and inspired fighting qualities make him a most valuable man. Coach Sam Taymour, the head coach of the squad. There are 25 letter men and 23 are scheduled to return next fall. The men leaving this year number 12 and 14, who have done well as Clark athletes. In losing Newton Cobb, the Panthers must part with one of the best defenses in the conference. He will every minute challenge Clark and game never did the opposition outgue him. Leslie Baker, who performs well in the team, His hunting and defensive work will be missed. The last man who has played his last game for Clark is Skelton. In the line he 200 pounds were a bulk. Another shock to the Clark supporters was the announcement that Coach Charles 'Ferry' probably will be the next coach of another year. Coach Perry has seen varied experience in this particular field and his loss would be felt to the North Carolina as captain of the champion Bennett college team. As a member of the U. S. army he became captain of an army football team under the tutelage of Chick Mehan. It was during this time that he took a course under the late J. R. McCormick and as head coach at Samuel Huston in 1924 developed the westerners into a first-class outfit that won the championship. He was an assistant to Coach Taylor he has done wonders in making the Clark team what it is today. So there have been changes in how the head of every loyal Clark man as he leaves. He served as a tutor for the backs and Clark for the past two years has been credited with having the best backfield in the South. POSEY PLANS MORE RAIDS FOR PLAYERS Pittsburgh, Pa., Jan. 9.—The Homestead Grays are stirring about in their preparation for the 1928 season. Though it is too early to say anything definite as to just how "Cum" Posey, the manager of the Homestead Grays, will have his forces lined up for this year, the fans are looking for a couple of new faces. Posey promised his local patrons some new faces for 1928, but not enough last season to make the best record of any of the top ten teams. And a manager does not have a great deal to ask for when his team best meet an opponent with the fifth mark of the year. Aside from beating all of the local talent, it will be remembered that the Homestead Grays made their first step in the so-called "fast company" of the East Coast, where several game trailing to their belt. Col. James J. Kennan of New York can tell more about this, as it was when he was a junior at the less abandoned of the lads from the Steel city. The Grays scored decisively in every one of the games except one, being taken by the Crew's crew, but the Grays were not so far behind. The changes which Posey complained about the infield department. He is thinking of letting one of his pitchers go and getting another in his place. But Posey is pum in subjects to the Grays, and he definite. He and Charles Walker are going to do a little skirmish during the next couple of weeks. By the time Funs both East, and West, will be on the anxious seat as the Grays have finally convinced them that they can burst capable of competing with the best in all circles. The Defender correspondent learned of blues spring raids on all clubs using spring raids on all clubs ... PART 1—PAGE 9 Chester, Pa. Jan. 3.—Jimmy Dougherty, manager of George Godfrey, the heavyweight, today answered Tex Rickard, New York promoter, with regard to his statement that "Godfrey was the worst fighter I ever saw." Dougherty claims that it was a Negro who first gave Rickard his start. He says that Rickard, slept, drank and ate with Jack Johnson. Dougherty further charges that the heavyweight boxing situation is handled by gamblers and calls Tex Rickard chief of the "ring." Rickard, according to Dougherty, "wants to see Godfrey heaten. Dougherty's reply to Rickard's statement follows: statement follows: "Tex Rickard is quoted as saying, 'that as a heavyweight contender and that Gene Tunney would not fight a Negro.' Rickard should be the last one, the world to make such a statement." "Negroes picked him up out of the slums in Goldfield, Nev. Joe Gans earned for him his first dollar in the ring. He made him prominent. Frank Sutton, a prominent Colored man of Pittsburgh, tells me that when Rickard came East to secure Johnson that he was the same bed with Johnson in his home. Claims Tex Is Biased "Now he is trying to injure and deprive Godfrey from his just dues because he belongs to that same. Negro race. Negroes put Tex Rickard in the game and made him fa- mier. He was a good driver him out of the boxing game because that public sentiment is going to rally around Godfrey because he is a good clean man and an American soldier. The boxing game as far as the heaviest division is concerned, is handled by a lot of professional gamblers. "Godfrey's record is clean and he'd have to enter the tournament.
