Fish of New York, speaking on Abraham Lincoln, praised the Race for its remarkable advancement in 65 years, commended its great political strength in Chicago and urged his hearers to keep Martin B. Madden in congress as long as he lives because of what he has done, is doing and will do for the epire Race. The meeting was presided over by Assistant Corporation Counsel Patrick B. Prescott. Other speakers who preceded Col. Fish with brief addresses were Editor B. S. Abbott, Third Ward Committeeman Oscar DePriest, Col. Otis B. Duncan, commander of the Eighth infantry, and Mrs. Grace Knighten, prominent club and political woman. Albernard Louis B. Anderson, in his characteristic way, introduced the master of ceremonies. Col. Fish, who commanded the 869th infantry, famous New York regiment, during the World war, was reminded of the fact by Mr. Abbott, who told the audience that "you came to hear this man who led black troops across Flanders field. Former President Woodrow Wilson did not want the white and black soldiers to be apart; but God in some way sent Col. Fish to lead the black troops into the fields of battle." Open West Point Door He touched briefly on Col. Fish's record in congress, fighting for the rights of the Race as guaranteed under the Constitution. Then, observing before him a group of World war veterans who fought in the Eighth Illinois, Mr. Abbott concluded his remarks with the congressman: "Col. Fish, we are looking to you to see to it that the doors of West Point and Annapolis are opened to the black boys. As an American citizen, it is the right of the black boy to be admitted into West Point, and we are looking to you, Col. Fish, to get him in." Col. Duncan following Mr. Abbott, was 36 years old, led by Col. Fish, was closest to the Rhine river when the armistice was signed.

Bulloch, pastor of the First Baptist church, it developed at the preliminary hearing in the city courtroom this week. The hearing, however, was never really started for after an argument between attorneys which lasted about an hour and a half, Magistrate L. M. Waring continued the case until Feb. 24 on the ground that the prosecuting witness, mother of the child, was in no physical condition to appear in court. Ample evidence of the stir the case has created among the citizens of Raleigh and North Carolina was to seek the conviction which was crowded with many of the outstanding people of the city. Dr. Bulloch is pastor of the largest Baptist church in the South and is leader of the drive for funds being conducted for Shaw university. The charge that he is the father of the illegitimate child of his 18-year-old erstwhile secretary has shocked the sensibilities of the leaders of his Girl Can't Appear When the magistrate convened court Monday, R.

Under the patronage of the lords and nobles of Westminster, Race artists in Europe appeared in a benefit matinee performance in aid of the mayor of Westminster's flood relief fund at the London Pavilion recently. This array of talent presented on of the most remarkable shows ever seen on the stage in England. There was a star even among this collection of varied and colorful acts, and it was Josephine Baker, who was rushed by airplane from Paris to keep the engagement. It was Miss Baker's first time in England. To express their appreciation of the welcome and hospitality shown them, these artists willingly accepted the invitation of the honorable lord mayor to perform. Greatest Ever in England "The matinee was one of the most remarkable performances I have ever seen," writes Hurner Swaffer, who is the most critical reviewer in England. Speaking the exhibition, Swaffer salts. "For more than three hours Negroes of all kinds had been doing their turns—singing, dancing, playing saxophones, cracking jokes. Some wore stylish morning coats, tall hats and diamond rings. Alberta Hunter came all the way from Monte Carlo to sing the blues. "In the sepulchre Baker appeared she sat on a grand piano, in a beautiful rose-pink dress and bejeweled sort of nightcap, with long dazzling earrings, and sang 'Turty Little Baby.'" "Miss Baker, changing her dress for the Charleston, put on an ostrich-feather sort of a skirt and then mude faces and grimaced while she danced, she was and vim, and she can wiggle her body until it looks like breaking." Artist on Program George Garner, tenor, of Chicago, U. S. A., rendered several solos. Others taking part included the South Before the War company, under the direction of John Payne; Southern Senanders, from the same company; Hatch and Carpenter, from the Lido club; Miss Hattie King Reavis and Russell and Vivian. Also Jeslie Hutchinson, Southern tithi William Gaund and Eddie Emersonm, Jim and Jack, Royal Hawaiian octet, Scott and Whaley, Leon Abbey and his jazz band, the Three Eldies, Jackson and Blake, Four Harmony Kings, Williams and Taylor and Noble Sissle. Irvan Browning writes that this affair, easily the most brilliant ever staged in London, was supported by every artist in Europe with the exception of Layton and Johnstone. The relief fund drive was instituted after the war, causing thousands of homes to be destroyed and families to be destitute in the Westminster section. Councillor Jacques Abady, the lord mayor of the city, invited the actors to take part in the benefit show. AGENTS! NOTICE!

Governor Acts The governor's message was telephoned to Kilby prison, halting further preparations for the death of Leonard. Nothing had been fully prepared for the execution. Leonard had been removed from the death cell and placed in a secluded chamber a few feet from the room containing the electric chair. The guards, before news of the governor's decision once the prison, said that the prisoner was bearing up well under the strain. On Thursday he was visited by several ministers.

NATIONAL EDITION JUSTIFY ACT OF WIFE FOR KILLING MAN Mrs. Debow Is Freed in 20 Minutes Charged with killing the man who enticed her into leaving her husband with whom she was living happily, Mrs. Dorothy Bebow, 22 years old, 464 E. 41st St., went on trial for murder Wednesday morning before a jury in Judge Otto Kerner's courtroom. Late that afternoon the jury returned a verdict of not guilty after deliberating 29 minutes. After hearing Mrs. Debow's story from the witness stand, the jurors apparently felt that the young woman was justified in taking the life of his wife, Harriet, whom she stabbed to death Nov. 15 at 512 E. 42d St. They were living together in the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Span. Self Defense Plea Through her attorney, Wendell E. Green, Mrs. Debow pleaded self defense. From the witness stand she calmly told a pathetic story of how she had been duped by Harris, who, she said, when he was down and out, had been taken into her home by her husband, Robert Debow, who wanted to befriend him. According to the young woman's story, the young man happily married. He was in the truckin', business, and in befriending Harris, he gave the latter a job assisting him on his truck. After a few weeks when Harris and Debow came home together at the end of the day's work, Harris, every evening, would tell Mrs. Debow that her husband had spent the day with another woman. "He told me that every night," Mrs. Debow said, "until I believed him. Then one evening I accused my husband, quanaled and he denied that he had ever been unfaithful. I didn't believe him so I moved away. Told Me He Lied "Harris later joined me." Mrs. Debow said, "and for five weeks we were together at the E. 42d St. address. Then Harris told me he had lied about my husband being with other women, but he threatened to kill me. He returned to my home. I wanted to marry my husband, the young woman continued, "but I was afraid. Harris forbade me to even see him. On the night of the slaying he came in, saw my hat and coat on a chair and accused me of having seen my husband. He began beating me. We went to the room and seized a knife on the presser and stabbed him." Mrs. Debow concluded. After Hurris' death Mrs. Debow became reconcilled with her husband. He retained counsel to defend her.

"Mr. Graham told me," Mrs. Johnson related, "that he had an argument with his wife over Daisy Anderson. He said that she rushed to the bathroom and leaped out of the window, preventing her, Graham told me," Mrs. Johnson added, "that his wife had threatened to commit suicide." At Wilson hospital Mrs. Graham told Mrs. Johnson, that "Daisy was the cause of it." Attack Theory Advanced From the statements of other witnesses questioned by the police, the theory was advanced that Graham was a razer in the bathroom, and, panic stricken, she sought to escape from him by leaping out of the window. Color was lent to this theory by the camera, which shows a daze. Ave. Mrs. Hamilton, occupant of the second apartment in the building, said she heard Mrs. Graham scream for help and heard Graham say, "I'm going to make you jump your foot."

A Doctor About Cascara A Doctor Talks It is unfortunate that many people judge the thoroughness of a laxative by its violence. The salts that rush through the system may not penetrate the form of poisonous matter that has coated the colon. A long list of drugs will "loosen the bowels" but what is the best way to CLEANSE them? The world's best laxative is one that Mother Nature makes in her own laboratory. It is the bark of a tree, called CASCARA. The Indians used to chew this bark—and reach old age without it. In the last thing there is today, for any system, best for the blood. The most beneficial in its action on the bowels, of anything yet disclosed. For many reasons: First of all, there is no HABIT CASCARETS They Work While You Sleep! d and B Do you take a keen interest in life and its many activities? Or do you always feel drowsy, tired and blue? If you lack the "pep" and energy to enjoy life why not follow the example of thousands of other women and tone-up your system with the aid of St.Joseph's G.F.P.? This rich, vegetable tonic contains Nature's own medicines in the form of roots and herbs which have been used for over a century to invigorate and strengthen women.

For fifty years genuine "Phillips Milk of Magnesia" has been prescribed by physicians because it overcomes three times as much acid in the stomach as a saturated solution of bicarbonate of soda, leaving the stomach empty and gasless. It neutralizes acid fermentations in the bowels and gently urges the souring waste from the system without purging. Besides, it is more effective than upon "Phillips."

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1928 FATHER CRIES DID NOT MEAN TO KILL SON Insists Gun Went Off Accidentally Traced by a telephone call from his hiding place on the West side to his home, Edwin B. Wright, 432 E. 48th St, slayer of his 17-year-old son Justin, whom he shot to death in their home last Thursday night, was captured shortly after noon Friday by Sergeants O'Leary and Burke of the Wabash Ave. police at 2129 Fulton St. The police found Wright in the presence of a friend, Nurman Blacks on the second floor at the Fulton St. address. Wright was rushed from his hiding place direct to Thomas Reed's morgue, where the inquest over his death took place for 4 p.m. When he was brought into the inquest room Wright broke down. Didn't Mean to Slay Son His slight body shook with sobs that seemed to come from a broken heart as he cried out: "I didn't mean to kill my son! I didn't mean to do it! I was trying to correct him for doing wrong. He cursed and struck me. He kept fighting me. I got the gun to biuff him and—and before I knew it the sun went off. Wright opened a major shop at $100 Faurite Live. He is the father of two other children, girls, who are with their mother, Mrs. Justine Wright, in the South. Mrs. Wright is estranged from her husband, it is said. The father had his son come to Chicago to "keep him out of mischief" and to be under his protection by his said. He was the son of the slaying of the boy had been in the room of Mrs. May Benton, a young married woman who, with her husband, he said, was a roomer in the house rented by Mr. and Mrs. Frank Butler. Wright, also a roomer, called his son from Mrs. Benton's room, telling him he had no business in there. He explained that her husband, a night�er boy, at the postoffice, might misconstrue the visit, though harmless, should he come in and find the boy in Mrs. Benton's room. Cursed His Father "My son replied by cursing me and telling me to mind my own business." Wright told the police. And I told him to move on to me. He struck me. Others in the house separated us. I started upstairs and my son attacked me again, then I went for my gun in the dresser drawer in our room. A moment later he got out of his chair. Then I went out to get a doctor, but resulting what I had done I thought of escape and didn't come back." Wright explained. The room whom the Weight boy had visited in her room, declared it was just a friendly visit and they were only talking of commonplaces. She was not held by the police. The coroner's inquest was continued. He was not in charge of the morgue. In the meantime Wright is being held in the county jail on a charge of murder. Demand College Men as Modern Church Leaders People go to church regularly from force of habit, imbued with a sense of religious duty, or because they enjoy the privilege of belonging the old-time Christians who would go to church in spite of everything. The other people, composed in a different orientation, refuse to continue to support a "time wuster." When they go to church they are able to understand an intelligent exposition of the Bible, expect to hear it, and the "elder sent to preach soul-stirring sermons" and who keeps his congregation squirming in their seats, and it is in the evening while he moans and groans out a funeral sermon should remain in the backwoods. And on this matter of ordination he must officiate at our funerals? Rites for the presidents, statesmen and noted world characters consume only a short time, but hours and almost no rest. They joyfully join to our dead. We as a race have been kept back by unqualified leaders. Give us men from Harvard, Yale, Cambridge, Oxford and other first-class diviners. We will need to equip ourselves for the ministry they will get from association with great educators and thinkers. They must be able to bring back to intelligent congregations sane interpretations of questions they had to answer in the future wolffare. We must be unloomed from ignorance.

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.

The attorneys argued back and forth for close to an hour. Mr. Jones, in an impassioned speech, in an open court that W. B. flurk, wealthy brother-in-law of the girl, was "mean and low enough to bribe this witness to get out of town if we don't take his testimony now." he said that he did not hold Davis be kept in jail to await the trial. Mrs. Simms declared that he had been unable to talk to his client, on account of her condition, and that it would be impossible for him to adhere until he had done so. "I don't think it is right to hold this man in jail," said the magistrate. "I don't think it is right to put "but on the other hand. I don't think he should be cross-examined without the girl here." He then ruled that the girl was taken, with a court atenographer present, after which he would put Davis under bond and continue the trial. Want Davis Freed Mr. Simms then asked to have the case removed to another magistrate. At this juncture the attorneys for the defense gave in to the extent that they agreed to have Davis' deputy understand that he was to be released on bond for his appearance before Magistrate Waring on Feb. 24.

Dr. John T. Wortham, who signed the birth certificate, was quoted in court as saying that he had obtained his information as to the father of the child, and also as to the alleged marriage, from the girl while Ruark was present.

Baldwin, Md. --- NOTED MUSIC MASTER GIVEN HARMON AWARD Ovation for Dr. Dett Shared by Mother Hampton, Va., Feb. 17.—Characterizing him as "a maker of music for all the world," Editor Douglas Gordon of the Norfolk Ledger-Dispatch, a white publication, Sunday at a attending meeting in Ogden hall at the Hampton institute presented Dr. Nathaniel presented of music and director of the school of music of the institute, with the 1927 Harmon award of $400 and a gold medal for his creative achievement in music. Mr. Gordon indicated the changing attitude toward the intelligent young people of the South through stories of his own contracts as music critic and editor. --- "I am young enough to know that most of the white people in Virginia and here in the South generally know almost nothing of the vast problem with which we of the South are sup- pended, not in whillemud not in long ago I heard a man say, 'Why don't the people of the North let us alone? We are the only people who understand the Negro people.' That man knows the Negro that I knew as a little boy, he does not know the Negro I know now. He has not known Negro. But what does he know of Countee Cullen, James Weldon Johnson, Henry O. Tanner, Ethel Waters and Nathaniel Dett? He knows less, and he is flesh of my flesh and blood of my blood, than men in any other country. He was freed States and I have known that for about five years," he declared. "I know the truth and the truth has made me free. We in Virginia and of the South in general have closed our eyes and ears and have even closed our minds I fear. The Negro will wish to learn that we nected have learned enough to set the Negro "up" as we call it, because we realize and moon all will realize that the Negro stands for and is a race and not merely a color. Most of the Negro is not susceptible to musical education. We thought such music as the Negro had or could attain must be the gift of God. Then I began to sing the music of Samuel Coleman, Harry T. Burleigh and the poet Paul Lawrence Dunbar" Editor Gordon asserted. Dr. Dett Responds "I heard Roland Hayes. I heard the organizations sing which Dr. Dett had trained and was training. Then I knew the truth and the truth was beginning to make me free. I heard Dr. Dett and I knew the tissues and my mind blushed with the density of my ignorance. I know now that the music of the schooled Negro is not Negro music. It is universal music," the speaker concluded. Dr. Dett added to the address of Editor Gordon Hinton in accordance with award, Dr. Dett said, "I stand here, I regret to say, apart from you today. I have a feeling of regret because it seems to me in my fifteen years at Hampton we have always received the best with me that if I receive you also receive, as we always have shared together. It is because you have achieved that I have achieved. I am happy to receive these honors because, manlike. I glory in any honor you give me. I glory in my race and to this great institution I have tried to serve." Students Present Flowers Dr. Dett then spoke intimately to his students in the audience, calling to their attention the years of hard work back of perfection in the voice of Harold Hines or in the folloin playing of Mr. Douglas of who public performance is but manifestation. At this point he spoke of his mother, who had traveled from Ontario, Canada, to be present on this occasion. She was assisted to the piano and the plaque. Mrs. Dett said, "Fathers will understand some of my feelings but only mothers will understand fully." She congratulated her son and stayed with him on the platform during the flowers from the Hampton Inn retreat of Rose Mercer Bratcher, soloist of the organization.

FOR REAL INDEPENDENCE llar scholar Infant Care America celebrates what she chooses to term Independence day. This day, making the data upon which the colonies declared their freedom from Great Britain, July 4 1776, is halted throughout the length and breadth of the land, from New York to the Gulf and from the Atlantic to the Pacific. It is supposed to be a day of freedom—typifying independence. And yet it is not free—a large percentage of the population is not even independent. It seems that this of all days, could be set aside to represent that for which it was originally intended. On that day America could at least make believe that she agrees with the Declaration of Independence. Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 17, Dr.-Egbert S.

Even an infant can have a happy, freless state of uninterrupted health. What will help do you? A simple, purely vegetable product as old as you are; plain Castoria. A few drops of Castoria will settle all uneasiness in a jiffy. Will dispel colic or ward off constipation; and just as surely check diarrhea. In real sickness, call a physician. Bundle Castoria for those little childish disorders that need nothing more. You need never be afraid to give pure Castoria. It is safe and perfectly harmless, for it contains no paregoric, no opiates, on dope of any kind. At least, this is true of the genuine Flechette doctor—and that is the kind of child you tell your Flechette. Castoria is first for a child. All children love to take it. Delicious tasting, and as good as it tastes. Just look for the Flechette pendence that "all men are created equal." As a step in this direction, the Defender suggests that the forthcoming July 4 be made an example of real spirit of independence. Let America host at least one day of Let the "Jim Crow" cars go—remove all signs on transportation—let foreigners and natives allure set aside their discriminatory practices for a day—let the hotels and restaurants accommodate all alike—let segregation and all its attendant evils be abolished. Let the defense day be that in deed as well as in name. If the United States would try this, even if only for a day, it will find that it is not so impossible of accomplishment as it appears.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1928 Famous Old Recipe for Cough Syrup Easily and cheaply made at home, but it hone them all for quick results. Thousands of housewives have found how to save two-thirds of the money usually spent for cough preparations, by using the well-known old recipe for making cough syrup. It is simple and cheap but it has no equal for results. It gives immediate relief, usually stopping an ordinary cough in 24 hours or less. Give the quiescent of Pinx from any druggist, pour it into a pint bottle, and add plain granulated sugar syrup to make a full pint. If you prefer, use clarified honey, instead of sugar syrup. Either way, it tastes good, keeps perfectly, and lends a family a long time. It's truly astonishing how quickly it acts, penetrating through every air passage, and rushes the plexum, soothes and heals the membranes, and gradually but surely the annoying throat tickle and dreaded cough disappear entirely, for the chills, hoursness or bronchial asthma. Pinex is a special and highly concentrated compound of genuine Norway pine extract and palatable guatinine for its healing effect on membranes. To avoid disappointment, ask your drugstret for "2½ ounces of Pinex" with directions, guaranteed to give about the same amount promptly refunded. The Pinex Co., Ft. Wayne, Ind.

Although my husband has to love me repeatedly that he does not love me and never intends to live with me again, and has not for near two years, still he comes to see me and often takes me out with him. He often tells me of his sweethearts, but would be a�alou, my big friends. This is I believe shows much of the "10og in the Manager" idea. In my heart I would be crying for his love, so I left the city where he was and have met the nicest man of 50 (I am 22), but can settle in my way and I am my heart to get along splendidly only in my heart. I want my husband, if I can, but I am tired of being alone. This man is neat, religious and jolly, has a good business and income, my husband has only a part-time job, loves good times, women, wins and says I know I could be a happy woman if I don't go back but in my heart I feel if he sees me and wants me I will go to him. My friend will take me away, a six-day ride from my husband and I would perhaps get over the feeling for my husband, knowing that we probably would be a good job together again. What must I do? Your trouble is not unusual as love triggers trusting and trusting to trusting conventions. It does not trample your mind. It does not trample your mind. This applies only those who are incapable of realizing the depth of your person you can continue to have an understanding of, and she does not love "him or her," but it is not uncommon to encounter this person who overrides any neglect or abuse you feel. You can be one of those tricks that Mother Nature is so very fond of or playing with in time you will release your mind when you do not, and in time you will release your mind when you do not, nor will he ever be the one to cause a time in every same person's life when they snap out of their trusting conventions. Your husband will regret some day and you will much worse than you ever will him. Dear Princess: I have read you wonderful advice to other people, so now I am in need of advice myself. I married when I was 15. My husband was much older than I was, so our married life did not prove so happy. I got my divorce and have had so many love affairs since then, but I never have had any success with any of them. I won't know why, because I am nice looking, but I have an awful temper. I have a new love affair now, he is a married man. He has been married six months. His wife has a baby 2 weeks old. Of course their marriage was forced, he was compelled to do it, and he says he never cared for her. She has had two children for him. He says he is only staying with her because people will think it is terrible, but now that we are in love, he is overanxious to leave. He declares he will support his child. Princess, do you think I am wrong for loving him? Princess do you think he will divorce WOMEN AND GIRLS BE NOT SILENT Meritorious Acts Remain Unknown for Want of Publicity To conform with our promise to make the Woman's Page of 'The Chicago Defender the greatest ever, we began in the first issue of the New Year to tell you of the accomplishment of some woman or girl. Space in each week's issue will be given for an account of some achievement, but our readers must bear in mind that no one is to name a date for the publication of any article sent, and only those will be published which are a chronicle of activities and not advertisements. Asking Co-Operation Many things of an unusually commendable nature which have been accomplished by women and girls of the place have been called to the attention of The Chicago Defender. The desires being always in mind to please our readers and also give publicity to the great accomplishments of the sex Mrs. Nettle George Speedy is sending out an appeal to ask your co-operation in helping her to make the women's page one of the greatest in the newspaper world. She is asking you to meet her half way. When you learn of anything that a woman or girl has done, or is doing, that will place her in the unusual class, please send Mrs. Speedy the information so that she will be enabled to enlighten our readers about the wonderful progress that is being made by our womanhood. Alma for Success It may often be an incentive for a woman to accomplish her end if she knows that she can accomplish her end if she knows that the same eyes are watched every day for a woman's prayers are being offered for a woman not belittling to declare that each and every woman wants a little praises for our efforts to appeal does not apply to inexperienced women sometimes classes and clubs of women together and are doing much of a work to strengthen to a venture, and the very strength to a venture, and the very being paramount in the lives of women making her succeed in spite of herself. Look for the Girl Women and girls are doing something everywhere. Something unusual, too. You may know about it, so why not let others know. If a young girl graduates from high school at the age of 14, that is something unusual. If a woman or girl competes in any line of endeavor and carries away the blue ribbon, the accomplishment is worthy of publicity. Search your home, your neighborhood, your school, your church, in fact, search your own environment and bring to light the doings of your own sex and send them with pictures whenever possible. to Mrs. Rettie George Speedy, care of The Chicago Defender, and help to make the woman's page the encyclopedia of your sex. It will cost you nothing. These articles will be published free. Please write upon one side of the paper and send a picture of the woman, girl or group whenever possible. We will do the rest. Let the readers know what is being accomplished by the women and girls of our own Race.

If some great philosopher would or could not go away to dispose of these eternal triangles, what a wonderful world this would be. The Affordable path is so constantly beckoning to humanity, can't be so much feeling, in doing its stuff. Men and women who do not belong to each other seem to find more attraction and take greater chances than the men who are holding them together. If the places they together and it is not rare that they soon begin to get along like that stray cut and dog that we have heard so much of the two. The two seems to be stronger in married folks. I compare that to a child with a red wagon who sees a child with a green wagon and puts for with every effort to get back to the world. We have a good time with the way ways seem of greater value than your own. You and this man cannot be condemned for loving each other, but it really gives this woman the marriage more than he ever will owe you. It he misuses her he will do you the same way. If he does not love here he does not need to say with her the word "I am a man." It is a very probable that he raved over her in the beginning just as he is now doing. Most men are like babies—they craved for them too. So don't me be so sure. Many a good woman has gone wrong trying to believe that a married man loved her more than he did his wife. He would be absolutely. Actions are louder than words. Dear Princess: A little advice please: a lone woman of 30, an industrial and with very good education, knows about the friends, has tried to learn a trade which has been a struggle. I want to come into contact with people who are young and very young and high ideals I find it is very hard to make worthwhile friends. There is something about me that people disdike, so much that I think about some say that I think I am better than anyone, which is not true. Please tell me how overcome and make free life. A woman alone, unless she is thoroughly capable and confident of her own experience, may must be more superstitively and general feeling of inferiority will surely bring failure. You are more concerned over yourself and the public will be able to attain a certain point may have made you arrogant. Many women who crave independence and social dissatisfaction are very much less likely to appear important—this is the only one too. The people with whom they come into contact hardly do so, but the task of the collar died to the attitude if not the person. I feel that you are trying to impress your acquaintance with the fact that you are not receiving that you are not receiving. It is rare that a person is rude to another without cavernage. I think I am not the only person in my actions may speak. I advise you to try listening to others rather than taking so much time to talk about my life, and I are thinking about me not for it; don't talk about yourself, let people find out about you. I think you are mostly responsible for your dissatisfaction. It is by being responsible and not sensitive.

It is a real joy to see that the architects who have built theaters which have made scores of persons famous as good are away from what they know in a Room of the Way. It becomes emphasizing the Louis XIV and XV periods, used in most of our large theaters, and have given us something different—modern, atmospheric and air-flammable policies, and heraloids on the silver screen as we sit in an out-of-door atmosphere "neath the moon and stars, such as delights our hearts and inspires our souls at the uplifting time of life." It is the most effective of the South atmosphere we imbile at the Granada theater on the North side, brings us visions of the lovely seniority, the dashing senors and the lively chateurs of the world. But as we enter the Regal all the spell of the Atlantic desert sweeps upon us and we find ourselves in shelf's tent, the "heavens" own blue skies, felling the "guns" on the screen and listen to the tunes trilled on the stage by those following in the footsteps of our own beloved Florence.

"Overbidding is winning auction," he said. "Underbidding is losing auction. I hasten to add, however, that I do not mean the lid is off for any sort of reckless bidding. What I mean is that the player with great courage and good judgment wins in the long run. The player with great courage but poor judgment is, of course, a scourge to his business." Two Quick Tricks Enough "Often times you will sit down with a trumpet initially with two side tricks in addition to his trump holdings." Whitewater said they are worthy of waiting for that holding he is not bidding his first hand, and they are worth expert of whom I know, that the holding of two trumpets is sufficient for opening bid. A five-card suit headed by a king-facing additional possibility of two trump tricks besides. "Now it works it out. With four probable tricks in my hand, I ask for a bid, and I ask for what experts call the 'probability of play.' The total of four sufficient banks for an opening bid. Take Out Opening Bids "these-nally," he continued, "in a 12 out of 20 opening bids were taken out in subsequent bidding, so that the initial 12 out of 20 opening bids were taken out what seems to him a week bld. When I made the same study I also surveyed 12 out of 20 opening bids in New York in which the initial bldder opened with a minor suit deception he was taken out." The bldder was taken out during season. Whitehead explained why two quick tricks are imperative for an opening bld in four seasons. The tendered stubs had shown on an average that there are eight quick tricks in four quick tricks, therefore, mark the average is concerned. If the declared has less than the average, he is forcing his part of a hand that is certain to be inferior.

Aye! every sense alert in me A vibrant, piercing, mad'ning rack, For this same God—HAS MADE ME BLACK. Why! I can hear the roses sip Their morning brew from Dawn's pink lip! How can I then make deaf my car To racial taunts and hatred's anerer? If in the meanest weed I see A pattern of divinity, How can I ever close my sight To mackery and color slight? If I can feast for the beat Of pregnant nature, 'neath my fact, What anesthetic must I use To blunt the pain of long abuse? When Twilight spin its opal gown And Night stoops low this robe to do, Then, with its star-gems lights the gloom And from its neck suspends the moon; So thrills me, this most wondrous sight, That from some pure delight Too sensitive my heart and brain, They but intensify my pain.

Another ridiculous inconsistency is to see white theatrical managers and producers use imitations to enact race characters and to hear them declare that the imitations are superior to the genuine. When was ever an imitation superior to the genuine? Many white theatrical managers consider every good-loving Race girl as legitimate prey. They openly sue for her favor.

In sports, labor, business and schools we are often barred, not because of our ineligibility, but by reason of our color.

We hope they land in Chicago this trip as we like them immensely. **Pop Haire Dies** This will come as ad news to the musestub. Pop Haire is dead and the bunch in Chicago is mourning his passing. It all happened in a few minutes. Pope was the father of the bunch in Chicago and was bass player in the Vendone theater oratorio. The job he held since the theater was his. He will be last Monday morning about 10 a.m. when just about ready to play a breakfast dance engagement. Acute indigestion is attributed to the cause of his death. He died before medical aid could be summoned. Details of the funeral will be given in the next issue. **Jackie Wright** Jackie Wright, the pianist, wants the bunch to know that she will take her small at 1332 King Id., Jacksonville. Fla.

Trombonist Leaves Circus H. C. Johnson, well-known trombonist, has closed on Sparks circus and is now playing with Cuthbert's orchestra, working in and around Brunswick, Ga. Mall will reach him at 1235 Gloucester St. above town. LOCAL NOTES Verona Biggs, president of local 205, has been on the sick list the past week, but is able to be up and around. He was forced to lay off the job for few nights. This man is one of the busiest in the music game. He gets calls at all hours of the night from the boys who depend upon him to settle their disputes. Mr. Biggs truly has a hard job, but he does it with a smile. Clifford King and his orchestra are still the big noise on the West side, where they are playing at Harmon's Dreamland. In the band are all youngsters who are full of pep and anxious to make good. Louis Armstrong and Darnell Howard are now playing with Clarence Jones and his Metropolitan theater orchestra, replacing Billy Page and a cornet player whose name I do not remember.

We have plenty of theoretical organists who confine their activities to the concert and church and who really give training on the instrument, but have neglected to get the practical training that is necessary. counted on one hand who can really give the proper organ service in the theater. We have plenty of theoretical organists who confine their activities to the concert and church and who have had extensive training on instrument, but have neglected to get the practical training that is necessary for the theater. The time is not too late; there is going to be a national demand for popular organists—those who can play a variety program and can motion pictures. It would be ad- ditional for the organists to begin studying the practical end of organ playing. Fine Organists Summy Williams, now playing at the Regal theater, Chicago, is one of the finest players of the organ in the country. He is in great demand among the wealthy element, having been employed at the Chicago Hiding Place in Chicago, a gold coast elite. Summy knows the organ and can execute upon the four manual instrument with great precision, he is a creator of tricks and in tone coupling he is an artist. Ulysses Chamberlain, a young gentleman from New York, is also associate organist of Regal Theater, too, is an accomplished player, he is a library stored in his memory. It is a rare treat to hear him characterize musically a picture. Still in New York is "Pats" Waller, who came to Chicago several months ago and electrified the theatergoers. He played just two weeks at the Vendome theater. When he left the Chicago groove, he came to Sammy Williams and Ulysses Chamberlain. Many Claimants We have among us many claimants of pipe organ efficiency. They all think they know the organ and will give the average person an argument as to their skilled efficiency. As a result, in our respective callings, none of us ever try to visionize ourselves or try to see ourselves as others see us. To this element of organists I might say: Visit the popular picture houses, listen very attentively to the organists, remember what you have seen and practice hard. You all will come on out top if the good are in you. Don't allow your friends to flatter out on top if the goods are in you. have the goods and do not try to sell your talent until you are perfected. Wm. A. Sykes Wm. A Sykes, director of the music conservatory of Wilberforce university, is quite prominent in concert circles. Quite accomplished is this master organist. He has served many prominent colleges and schools. At the Wilberforce school he is well rated in this capacity. Aside from his organ ability, he is a first-class music arranger and is very capable along these lines. He is master of a wide variety of music. Windy City would be pleased in the near future of seeing and hearing this accomplished musician. Ashton Stevens Says The famous dramatic critic, Ashton Stevens, paid a visit last week to the new Regal theater, Chicago. The next morning he came out with an article lauding the work of Fess Williams and the excellent playing of the stage orchestra in show presenters from Stevens and the orchestra is about as salty as Whiteness and a great deal better than anything of its kind in the Loop district of Chicago. This compliment coming from one of the world's famous critics means something. It may open a broader field for our Race musicians. Orchestras today built just like a building. If you use poor material the building will eventually sag and will not qualify with the best. The same applies to orchestras. They must be made up of the proper timber and properly commanded by an efficient instructor. We thank Mr. Stevens for his generosity, the talent he and our on trying to improve and not stop still because he paid us such a high compliment. Andrew Rosmond Andrew Rosmond recently returned from Paris and Berlin and made quite a reputation for himself while over there. He wants the musician bunch to know that he is back in the good old U. S. A. to stay and that mall will reach him at 65 Broadway, New York. The Green Mill Band This writer is getting together an orchestra of 12 musicians who will open on or about Feb. 25 at Green Mill Gardens, Chicago. Martin Paley, who built the Cafe De Paris, will be the managing director and Lawrence Deas will produce the floor shows. Both orchestra and show will be race artists. The Green Mill has had only one Rue orchestra during its regime and has been the target of about six years ago with the "Plantation Days" show and ever since white units have held the job. The Green Mill is on the far North side and in the heart of the Gold Const district. Our musicians should remember that they will be watched and criticized. If you be careful of your conduct in the place and out of it, you will be surprised but if you pull some of the nasty tricks attributed to our gang, the job will not last long for you. Hilbert Stewart III Hilbert Stewart, assistant organist of the Metropolitan theater, Chicago, has been confined to the hospital for the past week. At this writing he is slowly improving and is expected to be up and about in a few days. Let's hope for the gentlemanly musician's early recovery. Fess Williams Chicago is beginning to like Fess Williams real well. He has grown on the folks out this way. They have learned to understand Fess better; they are gradually falling to his ways and today reflects a brilliant future. He has learned to head a stage jazz band, taking the destiny of its success in his own hands. Fess can sing, talk and dance and with his unusual educational attainments he is the right man in the right place. All the knockers, mostly musicians who are not jazzists, might as well take low. Fess Williams is made and is here to stay for a long, long while. Fletcher Henderson Gang The rumor is alive in Chicago that Fletcher Henderson and his gang will soon embark on another tour. This popular musical organization has struck gold and have an untold fol- Pop Haire Dies Jackie Wright LOCAL NOTES LINWOOD'S LETTER LINWOOD'S LETTER Pittsburgh, Pa.—The Whitman sisters gang opened Feb. 8 at the Elmore-theater. Although the weather has been very bad with rain and a little snow, they are going along with that. They know that a performer's time should be limited to a certain time and when that time is up, if he or she has been a good and reliable person, their employer should recommend them to some other good show. They are both musicians who have held jobs so long they feel that they are the sole owners of the company they are with. And they do everything but fire the boss. Anyone capable of holding a position for a period of six months should be hired, and why think that you have half interest in the company because you have held your position that length of time.

The Defender's MOVIE and STAGE DEPARTMENT SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1928 COAST DOPE By BUDDY BROWN I am sure that my readers grow tired of hearing the same old thing week after week about different acts either stopping shows or making a big hit at such and such a place. But the facts remain the same. Ninety-five per cent of all Race acts who are fortunate to work on white programs usually "stop the show" at every performance, especially on the coast. The Race public in general fall to manifest the proper interest in our performers and their activities, and therefore, know very little about what we are doing, our hopes, ambitions and the progress we are making. In fact, I can truthfully say that there are but few who even turn to the theatrical page of our papers and read one thing about the actor and actress. They judge from "hear-say" without authentic information. They hear of a few outstanding names like "Bill" Hobinson, Chas. Giflin, James B. Lowe, Florence Mills and Ethel Waters, and think that all of the show business is centered around these names. They overlook the vast army who struggle year in and year out, attaining only mediocre success, some of whom fail to gain the goal they started out to attain. But clever and talented just the same, they will fail to realize that the actor works except their immediate community. They do not know the inside* dope on theatricals (and your audience) who are blased, prejudiced point of view, and fail to support the artist on account of what some one else might coined the phrase: "Oh, justice, when expelled from other habitations make this thy dwelling place." And they are "in our hearts." No other emotion is quite as uplifting as justice, bless it be love. And the two of us, the public does not know that the powers that be in the show business are very stingy with their favors, and the deserving that they give the plums. Money, graft and selfish motives have always played an important part in the show business and always have been the game any length of time know that the ofay is as jealous of us and will allow only a few to reach the heights. There should be some way to make the Race public understand the necessity of knowing his artists and build their esteem at least morally, if in no other way. There are enough Race men of means Angeles do get together and build his estate together, but no, it was left to the ofay to build one (The Lincoln) and reap the golden harvest. They say that a man must win a great honor, except in his own country. But I refute many old-time sayings, and wish to go on record, as he was coming a time in Los Angeles, Cullf. when the Race people will either go it may be years and years, but it is worth watching. Summing up, I must we must an example for others to follow, and we must have more co-operate with the guard our actions as jealously as a miser guards his gold. Improve our minds, look around us and we must less and less listen more. I wouldn't give the snap of a finger for a man or his own opinion. I wouldn't give his or her own opinion. Don't sing the other fellow; learn for yourself. Read them and try to figure life in numbers. I asked a performer if he ever read the American Mercury and he told me that he was not interested in the Literary Digest, Saturday Evening Post and a few other simple, but effective periodicals and the anthology of the latter. This particular poem's reading is the newspaper, and only the sporting page of that. Just a sample of the thing that hoots us back as a group, and that will still argue current events and make themselves generally ridiculous to the edification of the ofay. I hope and wish that it will always ways before it is everlastingly too late. And they wonder why they are not a success. "Uncle Tons," face-disguise to the Race. This week finds Johnson and Brown in the back row. Johnson, Compton, Calif.; Mission Court, Fullerton, Calif.; and Globe, San Pedro, the world's middleweight race. his party at the Plantation cafe on the left, and on black bottom. I guess it is a souvenir from the late "Tiger." God, rest his soul. However, he (Mickey) is some Billy Tucker has been out of town for awhile, but has now returned and says he has a big proposition to offer him. He hustler and should make good in anything he attempts. Gus Jones and I have been in San Bernardino, Calif. After Bill Robinson told one of the Duncan Sisters that he was only the porter at the mall, I asked my mail asking me to correct the impression that malice was meant when Miss Duncan asked Bill if he was in stage. I pass it on with comments. Winnifred and Mills are at Pantages, Long Beach, Calif. Clinton Tatum and Michael Orpheum, Los Angeles, and worked a midnight show at the Lincoln Felz, equipped even at the Follies for an indefinite run. Angelus Babe Henderson is from Angeles after she worked with Stella for Anastruella. Babe met with a painful accident and was forced to return to Los Angeles alone. Helena Just and boys are still a sensation up North and are booked solid over the Canadian big time, opening March 19. Doc Straine and gang are still at the Lincoln, Nuffed. One of the cleverest little girls on the coast is Robert Hyson, record and cabinet star. I fail to see who don't "branch out" and make a name for herself. Carolyn Snowden still reigns supreme as queen of the coast and is holding down everything at the Cotton club. Little Mildred Washington and Pods of Pepper are at the Fifth Ave. Seattle, Wash. this week. We find a definite gratification in being able to extend a neling hand in here and there. Our men are unselfish in the abstractness and we hope that we are not misunderstood. Our aim is to play the game open and above board with malice toward none. We want to give the deal as we would wish to give it. If our personal feelings creep into our articles it is with no animosity, but rather that we sometimes write with a heavy heart caused by the match this time we forced to be in life. Good luck all. Successes for your this year. Johnson and Brown wish you all the prosperity that you wish for yourselves. Hello, Chink More next week. Little Cira Campbell wants her birthday at her at 247 Seventh Avenue, New York. TIMELY TOPICS By SALEM TU (Continued) If a Race man presumes to join in failed, beaten or lynched. Like seeks like.

If all Race bars were lowered, after the first indulgence it wouldn't be long until social intercourse and affairs generally would move from the gymnasium to the workplace or more lively, with the difference that we would act more like sensible human beings. The ban placed upon the intermingling of the races makes it a forbidden pleasure, doubly attractive. And despite the bans, the written and unwritten laws the persecution and the lynchings, intermingling goes on. Why? We are not the only people who have these laws and have been incorporated in the white world. There can't be any great biological difference between the races for these excursions are seldom suspected or revealed.

"Our love's deformed!" cried the lilted one. Superstition and ignorance are inseparable allies. Also superstition is the arch enemy of progress. Advancement in all progressive movements has been made by the two-year-old, the two-year-old, the two-year-old of the superstitions fostered by different sports, professions, businesses and peoples are truly nonsensful and amusing. There are performers who believe that certain other performers are "Jonah"—that any company a "Jonah" is with will strand. Just what makes a "Jonah" no one seems able to explain. Pennuts are taboo in most the life of the future—they are not the only people who have been in the chocolate or peanut brittle lose their evil potency, but peanuts in the shell are banned. Whistling in a dressing room is a sure sign that the person nearest the door that particular dressing room will be on or over the door—the door that is not as much as a red trunk as is also a yellow suitcase. A roll curtain is also an evil potent. Hilda Harris, with S. H. Dudley's Smart Set, is company, attempted to disprove the superstition. She stepped on the roll of a curtain while it was on the floor, it turned and she broke her ankle. Partisans of the superstition were unanimously conceded to be right. The nonpartisan remained silent as a measure of safety. While en route to pass a graveyard on the right side of the train is good luck, on the left bad luck, a pass is made to the other side of the train to be in the last place. A cross-eyed performer is never held in high favor. Any company uses an organ as a prop. It is own risk. Alphasus at a roadway is used to run. To cut by a top knife, she can sword or ax during a rehearsal is a bad omen. The show will never be a hit, or if a hit is will only have a brief run. The singing of hyuns in a theater is taboo. He started by a high-point. The man's floor is a well-written of the company, other than a number in the show means that the singer or another member of the company will soon be jobless. We have but one superstition, we believe that it is bad luck to shoot craps in a theater or any place else, and we are not to be so much as to be so much as to be so, if they are broken, mixed in all, a groupment, mixed in a fight or jolled and flued. Traveling south with theatrical companies has been rid of many of its discomforts and humiliations. Visions of the small, evil-smelling, overcrowded, "Jim Crow" departments need no longer deter performers from the theater, and the companies are properly housed. Passenger agents for the different railroad companies make arrangements for the movement and accommodation of the company. Managers of the houses also interest themselves and see that the companies are properly housed. Passenger agents for the different railroad companies traveling over the circuit pay thousands of dollars to the railroads for transportation. Any manager who would not see that the companies playing his theater were given ample and comfortable accommodations by the railroads would be derelict in his duty towards the companies and all others allied with the theatrical profession. It will be published twice yearly and distributed to the executives of vaudeville, to motion picture houses, booksers and managers. It will give the permanent addresses of established auts, theatrical offices, clubs, etc. It will be the only publication of its kind of, for and by theatrical professionals. The guide will consist of more than 100 pages. Its contents will include the history of the theater, playwrights, playgirl rates, booking agencies, beauty parors, clubs, associations, costumers, dancing schools, hotels and theatrical boarding houses, music publishers, addresses of orchestras and musicians, railroad fares, storage and transfers, theatrical necessities, theatrical producers, theatrical publications and editors and miscellaneous. On the advisory board of the guide are: Irvin C. Miller, Sylvester Russell, Plourry Miller, S. H. Dudley, William Foster, Martin Killen, Ivan H. Brownson, and Attorney Ruffy L. Perry. Sam E. Reevin, secretary and treasurer of the T. O. B. A., is such a regular fellow, a square shooter and so easy to do business with that we regret sincerely to wish him a Chattanooga Crow's accommodations extended to the Race people of Chattanooga by the white theaters. They will not support the Liberty theater in sufficient numbers to make it profitable for the high school audience to the "Jim Crow" just so long will it be inflicted upon us. We are too inclined to evade personal responsibility. "What can I do? I do you. Ask. We can speak only for ourselves. We have made a solemn pledge to ourselves never to submit to the Jim Crow" excuse under circumstances that make it impossible to avoid it. You can do the same. James E. Carroll, better known to professional playmasters as "Fats" James, E. Carroll better known to professional playmasters as "Fats" is familiar with all its branches and believes that he possesses the executive ability to handle or manage a theater. Any theater in need of a manager will do well to give "Fats" a trial. Had a dandy letter from Johnny and Mildred Hudgins. The popular eccentric dancer is still setting the pace in Paris, France. His present engagements are with theaters in Paris, New York and Seventh Ave. He has numerous offers that will keep him abroad indefinitely should he accept them. He is rather inclined to come home for a short visit and then return to his work abroad. He writes that he will be able to work in Paris, Paris, Josephine is still the rage, contrary reports notwithstanding. Johnny expresses the hope that All Race nets that come to Paris will so conduct themselves that they will not lose the respect and sanction of the dangerous Paris.

Feb. 11—A miniature Tiger Flowers shuttled about the ring last night at the Douglas theater, where the lighting like left spasmodically at his larger opponent, and lost the decision. Texas Tanner battled his way to the victory, with Atlanta middleweight, and brother of the late Tiger in a fairly interesting bout that went 10 rounds. Tanner appeared to be a trifle wary of the Tiger, but first two rounds and fought carefully. The magic name of Flowers seemed to have cast a spell over him, but once he had found the blow he had found that the blow was no more devastating than had his opponent been named Smith, Brown or Jones, he pushed the right for the rejection. He earned a victory by a safe margin. Flowers was clever but did not appear to be in condition to play in the next round, the scrimmer, who answers to the name of Texas, kept boring in and failing away. No great damage was done by it, but it was easily Tanner's right. in the seminal Young Minims of Milledgeville lost a close decision to win the game, and the terror.

YOUNG Harry Dillon, so-called Canadian light heavyweight (Larry Gaines claims the same title), stopped Roleaux Saguero, Cuban battler, in the main bout of Mique Malloy's White City show Monday night after 25 seconds of fighting in the seventh round. That is, Rochelle Jack Helmle stopped the show after bad luck in Cuba, but the water bucket and had him hopelessly out, so much so that the towel should have been tossed into the ring in the sixth stanza, but Roleaux seconds were too dumb, and the unreliable performance, but it was the best he could. He was slow as most left handers are with the possible exception of the Tiger Floweres and a couple of others. Roleaux gave him a boxing lesson and made a punching bag out of Saguero's head. The Cuban got socked a vicious right on the jaw which was one of the dozen blows landed in round one of the fists. Dillon made his attack from the Islander's left and worked his way in masterfully to such an extent that Holeaux couldn't get his right start but once and that was in the fifth blow. He was better and from then on the Canadian doing a Dave Shade duck. In the fifth the Cuban smacked Dillon once and stung him a little, but then he blew a blow of blows that brought blood flowing from the mouth of his opponent. Harry went breezing along in championship style, carefully watching Saguero's left. In the third Dillon dropped the Cuban, who took the count of two and came up, only to reeve a shower of blows that would have put the average fighter out for good. The Canadian mixed boxing with the Cuban, who was boxing on the Cuban's head and then changing to bang away at his midsection. In the fourth and fifth Dillon rushed his man to the ropes and pummeled the head and body, and only the Cuban's ability to "take punishment" was the redeeming feature of the BETTIM. He backed the Cuban around the ring in the sixth, then shot a right to the jaw and Roleux unwillingly sat down on the canvas while Timekeeper Paul Beeler and Referee Helen counted all the came up, only to take more punishment as he was "out on his feet." Another right sent him down again, this time for the count of five when the gong sounded ending the roar. It was evident to all present that the Cuban had gone by-bye, but his seconds sent him out in round seven for what nobody knows unless they were clamming for a roar. Another right connected with Saguaro's jaw and the Cuban hung on a drowning man, but after being put up, he couldn't get out of the way of another right which sent him to the ropes and he tumbled to the floor. Helen stepped between the fighters as Roberto, the Cuban, stood to stand, but was pushed into his corner by the referee. Then after the fight had been stopped the seconds woke up and tossed the towel in. Larry Johnson, the California light heavyweight, under the management of Frank Itson, looked 50 per cent better than he did in his last start but he was still hitting his deadly right into play on the cranium of Young Dennis, who has just blossomed out of the ranks of the amateurs. The knives halls from Philadelphia, took several of these blows when like a bolt out of the sky Larry brought his right into play, but this time it traveled upward until it met Dennis's referee Reface J Heimen stopped the bout. A half bucketful of cold water brought Mister Dennis' thinking faculties back somewhat and he then lost the bounce of the technical knuckles. Otherwise the easterner didn't know what it was all about. Sam Curtis won a six-round bout from Bad Kerns, although Bad took it too hard and lost the wicked right into play. Both weighed around 150. Donnie Dundee of Omaha got a draw with Johnny Dolceway of St. Louis, and the judges nod in a six-round over Matty Matthews of Kensha. Wis. The opening seto was a victory for Geno Pine, a light-shinned Cuban, in the flyweight division. About 3,000 were out, which pleased the promoter, who announces his next show which is one of the best cards presented recently. Red Ubhan, who won the singles, Langford, gets a crack at Del Fontaine, who has been making a lot of wrist cracks that he can beat Red, and Red has been riled up about it.

Feb. 9-STIRING, shaking rally in the last three weeks of the weight champions contender from New Rochelle, N. Y., defeated Dick Honeyboy Flinnegan, the pride of Greater Boston and holder of the New Eagles title. He approached approximately twelve thousand fans at Mechanic building tonight. Flowers was a 5 to 1 underdog, and his victory was a great surprise to old many thousands who jammed the man that Honeyboy was supposed to be. As Flowers flashed his great rally and swept the popular idol around the ring before the blasting fury of the crowd, which last three rounds the crowd, which seemed to turn from the little white boy from Dorschelle. For the first time in his life Honeyboy heard he was bound for his holding tactics, but he was holding on for dear life itself. Honeyboy won the first round by a slight margin because Flowers was thinself to Finnegan's southpaw style. Flowers out in front by a small margin, while the third and fourth were bruce out in front by a Flowers still seemed to be puzzled by the style of Finnegan. Flowers carried his left shoulder high. He is all arms bent with his chin is buried out of sight in his hip. The fifth round found Bruce tearling in muddy. He let loose a terrific bruce of punches and a solid right to the left. He was burning in Finnegan did not like this and got fighting mad, walking in with fire in his eyes. Bruce snapped a right to the left, and he blows, playing all the time in Honeyboy's eyes died out in blow. The sixth round found both fighters taking it easy, with Bruce hitting him. He blows, playing all the time in the body. Finnegan was trying in vain to get his famous righ jabs on Bruce's chin. Bruce on his lights in the seventh sound. He had weakened Finnegan. He pumped right handers into the white boy's body. Once in a while he would let a child play. This round was Flowers by a mile. Finnegan made a try for the eighth round, but only received a boxing lesson from the boy from the town manager, and he won the ninth and tenth rounds. Finnegan hitting the white boy at will. In the final round Honeyboy was on for dear life, and was savely hit by the boy to be a knock-out by the final bell. After the fight Finnegan handlers claimed a fractured knuckle. Honeyboy, being the favorite, received a punch, the punishment, white Bruce, the winner, and 600. Finnegan weighted 1334 pounds, against Bruce's 1342 pounds.

Indianapolis Y Wins From Cincy Comets Indianaapolis, Feb. 11.—The Indianapolis Hart Hubbard's Conference of Cincinnati, 34 to 30. High point honors. Visitors and visitors and Moore of the home club. --- --- Muncie and Cincinnati Are Tied for First Place in Midwest Basketball League MUNCIE CINCINNATI 5 2 7.714 DLEOED 6 4 6.000 DOLEOED 6 4 4.000 INDIANAPOLIS 3 4 4.299 FORT WAYNE 0 5 0.000 Cincinnati, Feb. 15.—In a close and exciting race the teams of the Midwestern Basketball league are coming into the stretch, with Muncie, Ind., Monarcha and Cincinnati Comet tied for the lead, but may upset them. We have proved to be the class of the league and from all indications the right for the championship will be seen them, although one of the other teams may upset them. We will spill one of the leaders from the top position. Muncie has a really first-class assignment, and we will strongly in the preseason do well, has fought her way to the front and will stand considerable punishment before she is dislodged from that position. We will expectations and has flashed to the full team. Her defenses on the road were due principally to the inability of several of her players to leave home, but the team will be the best of the Comets is not to be denied. The battle for undisputed possession of first place will come off Friday as Hubbard brings his fighting crew into the Hoosier city. That the game will go to a light from start to finish is a difficult proposition, and the difficult proposition forecasting the winner. More than likely the winner of Friday night's game will win the western title and the right to win the league in the American championship series. Obviously, a team that is just about the equit of the league leaders, her loss of four games is unaccountable when one knows the strength and smoothness of the Big Five team, and disappointments, but may be the teams to upset the Comets and the Monarchs and spoil the dope. Fortunately, although her team shows considerable promise for next season. Commissioner DeHart Hubbard was forced to suspend the Columbus and New York teams in the contract. He regretted that this action was necessary, but could do so elsewhere in the circumstances. This action leaves the league with six active teams. Freddie Mack Beats Young Wills in Six Seattle, Wash., Feb. 7—A wild right swing that landed and sent Young Harry Wills, 143½-pound San Diego to the top of the ninth round of their six-round go, which brought Freddie Mack, 150 pounds of Seattle the decision. He was playing for five rounds to find Wills with that swing, but had curled most of them behind the Race lad's neck. He was also knocked down when in California, winning almost every fight. Most all of the 143-pounders were trying to evade him.

SPORTS NOTHING anti-climate has occurred during the past week in the conference basketball firmament. Tuskegee suddenly came back to life and presented Talebaurea a brace of stinging defeats. The Tuskegee team is not an Alabama quantity in those parts as she has not played a single one of the Atlanta teams. These two games proved to be the only action from a conference standpoint that Alabama saw during the week. We had noted the absence of the Robinson's name from the Tuskegee lineup, and it was only recently that we discovered that the old boy was still hammered by injuries sustained in the Tuskegee-Alaabama football game in December. --- TENNESSEE STATE invaded Atlanta during the week and departed with the uncomfortable sting of three successive defeats administratively. The unfortunate state five were very proficient in the art of shooting, but seemed to be a shade off when it came to the defense, especially these boys well in the primary ruliments of the game, but any team that comes to Atlanta will find it a challenge. The conference teams here. Hopson at forward for the staters displayed some of the finest handling of a ball against the Chark game he rang up ten baskets desuite the fact that he had the use of only one eye. An injury sustained by one of his eyes necessitated a bangle that obstructed vision completely. CLARK is still streaking the conference with her smoke and during the week extended her winning streak to nine straight games over conference Voes. Tennessee was the first team to basket to the Clark basket slingers in form and rang basket after basket. Dean Calbert, whom all the conference mentors respect as a combination conference coach, said the Tennessee boys found it hard to register many crisp shots. Most of their baskets were of the long looping variety. The Morehouse team had already smothered Tennessee in a game, but the baskets were hugely entertained. Tennessee defeated Knoxville in a brace of games earlier in the week and had contemplated playing Fisk, but it is reported that Fisk refuses to play and Tennessee refuses to play a representative conference member. Fisk played Alabama and it is a fact that Alabama and Tennessee rank on a par almost as regards curriculum and so forth. LAST week we talked about the possibilities of fostering freshman teams in the conference next fall. We see no reason why this movement not be construed as by every institution it would serve to improve the grade of ball played in the conference. Each school could schedule five games with other conference freshman teams. These teams would be recruited in such a way that the fresh team would be playing at home when the varsity eleven is away, thus providing the institution with some sort of amusement each year. It should it mature the southern conference would stand as the apotheosis of Race athletic organization throughout the country. The basketball season is almost over and right now the teams are rated like this: | | W | L | Pct | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Clark | 3 | 1 | .900 | | Morris Brown | 4 | 1 | .800 | | Fisk | 3 | 1 | .750 | | Tuskegee | 3 | 1 | .750 | | Morsehouse | 3 | 1 | .625 | | Tubauma | 2 | 1 | .400 | | Atlanta | 2 | 1 | .400 | | Knoxville | 0 | 1 | .000 | | Taladega | 0 | 1 | .000 | Detroit A.

M. C. A., Judge William C. Hueston of Gary, Ind., president of the western circuit, an Attorney Isaac Nutter of Atlantic City, N. J., president of the eastern circuit, will attend the meeting. The owners of the clubs in the West will attend enmuse with the possible exception of William E. Trimble of Princeton, who finds business at the present time and has asked Harry Schoir of Gary, secretary to Judge Hueston, to act as his American Giants of Chicago, whom he lectured the Atlantic City Chathamchs for the world series title after a pro-banned struggle, some of the attirions which will get gired out at this meeting. Among one of the many things to be taken up at the joint session is the playing of the world series games. Among the many games we have found the present arrangement unfinancial to have the series played one year (all of the games) in the playoffs, two years in the year all of the games in the West or in view which thus saving the round trip rail board, board and room for about 20 men. That alone plus advertising would save the series, especially if the series ended in 1927 when threatening rain kept down the crowd in Chicago on both Saturday and Sunday and again a heavy downpour of rain spoiled things for the players. And he liked it because he was to be called off there altogether on that day. The discontinuance of a publicity each league game the club responsible for setting newspapers all games and material necessary to keep the league going will be taken up by both leagues. Among other things are the Montreal McDonald, pitcher for the American Giants, who lives in this city, wants to remain East and is seeking his release or to be trained to the Hillside offence. The Eastern league in a closed session will act on several things. Many fans in this section of the country believe the Eastern league is better in Giants back in it. However, just what James Keenan, owner, thinks is not known. An effort to get in touch with him at his 135th st. office is thought, however, that Keenan will be glad to get back into the league even if he is final and is forced to return Montalvo, Gardner and that his overloaded stats and the fact that he is a bit steamed in this day and time. WESTERN CIRCUIT SET Gary, Ind., Feb. 14—Judge William C. Hueston, president of the Ngoe Groupe, enough today to give an inter-entry to the Chicago defender's sport editor in which he said that the league in the West was in better financial shape than ever before in its entire history. The able Indiana jurist has just returned from a trip to both Detroit and Memphis and stated that both would have teams in the circuit. A number of trades are expected to take place before the season opens. All weak clubs will be strengthened. The Kansas City Monarchs have notified and received permission from the president of the league to play in the South and train at Hot Springs, Ark. The judge leaves on the Broadway limited Tuesday noon for Philadelphia to be well attentive to the point of being held out of the courts and take up important matters regarding the world series play. Harry Sinclair, secretary to the president of the league, was proxy for William E. Trubble of the American Giants of Chicago. NUTTER RE-ELECTED Philadelphia, Feb. 11—The Eastern league mugel held their first session since the close of the past season at the Philadelphia City. In ad hoc form, the C.I.A. Secretary-Treasurer Ed Boken, the following clubs were represented: Cuban Stars, Alejandro Pompey; Blackout Sox, George Bosse; Baltimore Orioles, Joe Madden; Strong; Hibiscule Glants, Chile Freeman; Bacharch Glants, Jon Jackson. Colonel Strothers, the porty owner of the Harrisburg Glants, was also named the Nutter, the Atlantic City; attorney who guided the destinies of the loop during the past season, was re-elected for a term of another year. Ed Boken, the retiring treasurer, was also re-elected for the ensuing year. Holly Springs, Miss., Feb. 3. The LeMoyne basketball team played a game with the Mississippi Industrial college five.

Cam and his worn-out Loendi club blow to Chicago Saturday night at 7:45 to play a game at 9 o'clock against the Savoy team. Of course, the Loendi men were in no shape to go ahead with the game because an hour and a half minutes rest would be little good. As it was they lost Saturday night and Sunday night and lost a lot of money. They lost a lot of money around Chicago, both because they at both games and because of the rides on the floor Saturday night, they and Young continually squabble. We have no bones to pick with Posey nor with his men, but we do think it is high time that the public get a run for their money. Posey works with but six men to play two games. Baltimore Athensians pulled the same stunt last year when they tried to run for their money. They in town after playing several nights on the road and didn't have any substitutes and didn't give much of an exhibition because they couldn't promote to word their contracts to read at least eight men and if the managers of visiting teams didn't bring in a copy of the ration of the money would mean the sum guaranteed need not be filled. --- SINCE coaches of schools don't know the difference between playing amateur teams and professional teams when the blow falls on their men, don't cry you didn't have a fair wager. The Chicago Defender trophy in the 440-yard run at the annual Hampton relays will be he put up again in May, but there will go a stipulation. The team must be pitted against pro teams must be barred or there won't be any trophy. That's that. We are out to keep college athletics clean and will not in any way aid any manager or coach who attempts to cut off future competition in amateur circles. We are against an attempt down East to promote a Morgan college Renaissance game. Lincoln or Howard cut off future competition in amateur circles. We are against an attempt down East to promote a Morgan college Renaissance game. Lincoln or Howard playing Loenold of Pittsburgh and we are against any college playing a pro team. It professionalizes the whole team the minute they play in open competition against professionals. If they are only semiprofessional. On a spring training trip it has been permissible for baseball teams to engage in practice games with some college teams, but that is all. The Southeastern C. I.

Memphis and Memphis will be all set to have teams when the season opens. --- ONE of the strictest rules of the Chicago high school board of athletic control is that no student in high school can play an inside team during a game. Heretofore that has been a strict rule at all colleges with the exception of a few. We know that Spears, Johnson, Phillips and Simpson went over to Baltimore and played on an independent team while still members of Howard's varsity live a couple of games played with the Athenians of Baltimore in Atlantic City and was returning when he met with the accident that caused the removal of his foot. Wilberforce isn't satisfied with playing teams outside of college circles, but here in the line-up of the Cincinnati Comets we find Wu Fang Wan the Number of Wu Fang's varsity team. What kind of standards are we setting? What time does Wu give to study? What is his future? What is being calling him to Cincinnati and we know he isn't going down there for the fun of it—no indeed.

The game was played Tuesday afternoon at Tilden Technical high gymnasium. And to the losing team we might say, never has the 29th St. school faced a cleaner bunch of youngsters. Thompson parked a senior sonal fouls had to be called on Morgan Park. Thompson committing three in the first half and Hemmingway two in the last half, with the score 2 to 1 against them, at no time did Morgan Park lose their heads and get sore, instead fans were forced to marvel at the cleanness of play. Thompson parked a senior Morgan Park--that's all there was to it.

Phillips electrified the crowd with a nice shot that sent Phillips into the lead at the start. O'Meara tied the score and then took a basket and Waller's free toss on Thompson's foul gave Phillips a 5 to 2 lead. Miller shot one from near the center of the floor and fast to the basket. Thompson kept Morgan Park away from the basket. O'Meara got a free toss on Harper's foul and a few minutes later another free toss on Miller's foul. The quarter ended 7 to 4 with Phillips Are Red Hot Gay went in for Waller, Miller shifting to center and Gay to guard, Harper's basket went Phillips' roosting section into a frenzy. They could see victory when they got it. Miller allowed beautiful shot, but free toss and sunk his try and a minute later Baker shot a basket to bring Morgan Park's total to sevent. That was able to get and the glove one for that half. Morgan got two, caged a basket and added one more on a free toss and lead, 14 to 7. Coach Harris Harper, Wynn replaced Winsor for Morgan Park.

LINCOLN AND HAMPTON ARE GOING TO COMPETE IN THE TUSKEGEE RELAYS. PITCHERS WILL START WORK NEXT WEEK. Cleve Abbott's Chevrolet Would Not Go for Him Tuskegee, Ala., Feb. 4.—It became known here today that Coach Abbott had not been kidnapped, as his wife thought, a week ago when the former South Dakota star failed to return for four days following a business trip to Montgomery. Nor was the Tuskegee football mentor locked up. Neither was he in a poker game, that the coach said, but that that Clevie and his new Chevrolet are good friends now since Clevie has proceeded to learn how to operate the gear shifts. The truth of the matter was that Clevie had not excited and stopped. He then pushed the car into reverse speed and it backed down the side of the road, complete turn around and then backed down the side of the road and knocked down the stone fence. Abbott had to stay until he could get the "durn thing" started, but each time he did, the coach Chevy given him by his admirers wouldn't go ahead. It backed up. Becoming embarrassed. Abbott would drive it at nights—thus it took him four nights to back it up from Montgomery and use it. When he back one of the mechanics showed him how to put it in first speed. Abbott denies the tale, while the student body giggles about it. Washington Puts Bishop on Top26-12 Marshall, Tex. Feb. 9.—The Texas college cagers came into Bishop's company today fresh from their decisive victories over the Dallas college club and Wiley college and lost to the fast Bishop quintet by 26 to 12. This is the second defeat Texas has suffered from Bishop and, incidentally, the only games they have lost this season. At no time during the game were they able to cope with the clever passing and shooting of the Bishop quintet. Washington and Midget Hopsom again thrilled the crowd by their deceptive and flash floor work. Wilson and Nellum, guards, were at their best, allowing the Texas college aces, Scott and Bowie, one basket ench. Crouch for Texas did some clever playing but his support lacked the offensive punch necessary to bring victory. Bishop College (28) Texas College (19) A Hopsom f. 50 C.

A basket corner, a few minutes later ended up State's scoring for the game, and Paine opened up a brilliant rally that was closed out by the referee's whistle in the final.

Feb. 10.--The fast Wiley quintet, which recently made such a fiery debut, was stopped this evening by the strong five from Texas college. The Wildcat aggregation did not exhibit the teamwork that it has shown in previous engagements. Scott of Texas colleges was the high-point man of the game, tossing and batting nine field goals.

They asked for a two-game series so that they could win, even if the eaterners find they are no match for Chicago basket tossers.
