VOL. XXIII. NO. 43 CAP "DEAD MAN" MUCH ALIVE COURT FINDS Returns to Testify Against Swindler St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 24.—An alleged dead man returned to life to testify for the state against two men charged in a conspiracy plot to defraud the Liberty Life Insurance company of $3,000 by a false death in 1925. The guy "corpse" is Raymond Hurling, alias Raymond Allen, 31, and he did things in Judge Killner's court last Wednesday that proved he had conquered death and the grave. He played a very schematic to defraud, made a very live witness against John Allen, barber of 2837 Morgan St. who was found guilty of attempting to obtain money under false pretenses from the insurance company and as a victim of the penitentiary. The jury deliberated but 15 minutes in reaching the verdict. The ringleader in the plot, Charles L. Howell, undertaker of 2745 "hourly" workers, was convicted of 3225, and sentenced to five years in the penitentiary.

Three days later a taxicab called and he was instructed to go to Howell's office. He was instructed to go to Howell's office. "I stayed there a month and then got tired and walked out. I didn't know I was supposed to be dead," he concluded. Many at Howell's trial showed that a man named James Moore, whose relatives could not afford to pay the funeral expenses was buried in an $500 cachet as daymond. Allen told him, "I had a 200-pound sack of cement and excelsior. Both funerals took place on the same day. At G. Phillips, attorney for the insurance company discovered that Allen had been buried a day before he was supposed to have died, according to the burial permit, an investigation was ordered and the gravestone opened which disclosed the swindle. 40 and 8 Color Ban Boston, Mass., Feb. 24—Irwin, Gen.

ST. LOUIS WOMAN IN FIGHT AGAIN St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 25.—Constate tickets and passes, which roads in escaping liability for riding under such conditions are policy and is void, according to St. Louis court of appeals last ments in cases against the Frisco Railroad company. The judgments were in favor of Mrs. Mary Alexander, who was injured two years ago in a derailment pro car in vehicle she was riding as passenger at Menlo, Mo., on her way here from the state of Alabama. Mrs. Alexander was riding on a half rate ticket issued to her husband of the Puthman Car company. On the back of the ticket was printed a contract, stating that persons riding on such tickets had all right of accident and damage without any claim on the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad company. The contract was signed by many contended that the contract was binding upon both parties and released them from all liabilities. Many contended that the Railroad officials that Mrs. Alexander was an interstate passenger and the laws of the state of Missouri did not apply, but that all rights and obligations were THIS PAPER CONSISTS OF TWO PARTS - PART ONE FIGHT POSTOFFICE SEGREGATION Property War Looms in Chicago South Siders Get New Jim Crow Rules The fundamental right of American citizens to buy and occupy property was again challenged by a white group in Chicago when the Woodlawn Property Owners' association last week filed with the county recorder a contract specifying that no land may be rented or purchased or leased by members of the Race within certain boundaries. The Woodlawn organization following in the footsteps of a similar group of white fanatics who operated under the name of the Kenwood and Hyde Park Protective associations, which were exposed by the Defender in its issue Sept. 22, 1927, good news Saturday its intention toward Chicago citizens. The pact filed by this latest group states that 24 square blocks bounded by South parkway, Cottage Grove Ave., 60th and 63d St., should not be occupied by members of the Race for the next 20 years. While members of the group affected are leaving no stones unturned to the bottom of the whole movement they are openly expressing their contempt for the organization and its anties. They have memories of like attempts less than five years long that the Race would not be allowed cost of Indiana and south of 51st St. To carry out their program, the whites even resorted to bombings with the very things they set out to accomplish. One prominent banker and reactor, in discussing the situation, made the statement that within two years this proscribed district banks and the authorities of any race that raced to occupit it. "We are not afraid of such contracts as these," he said. "We have met them before and have dealt with them as they deserved. We are not afraid of any other group that attempts to segregate in Chicago by illegal covenants," he declared. **Foreigners Unmolested** One significant factor about the filing of the contract was that it happened almost simultaneously with the interchange of pulps. While ministers of both races were attempting to soften the feeling in Chicago because of the lack of a desire to be just to each other, these white realists were working hard to undo anything of good that they might have accomplished. The contract makes no mention of foreigners more likely to attack that particular group which has always contributed its share to both the wealth and progress of Chicago IN IS WINNER GAINST RAILROAD contracts on the back of reduced have heretofore protected rail-their negligence where persons are injured, is against the public a decision of the judges of the week when they rendered judg-terminated by the "Act to Regulate Commerce" or the Hepburn act of 1906.

REPRESENTATIVE Washington, Feb. 24.—Arthur G. Froe, recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia, was one of three government officials charged with inefficiency by Representative William P. Holaday, Republican, of Illinois, last Friday when consideration of the District appropriation bill for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1929, was begun in the house. The other two officials were A. L. Harris (white), municipal architect, and Frank W. Ballou (white), superintendent of public schools. Mr. Holiday excepted Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent in charge of Race schools, from his criticism of the district public school system. He said that Mr. Wilkinson impressed him "as a man who was absolutely fair and open with the committees; that he did not have anything to conceal; that he was making his recommendations fairly and openly and willing to stand by his judgment, but willing if overruled to adapt himself to the circumstances, criticizing the office of the municipal architect. Mr. Holiday stated: "There is another office in the District with which I am not satisfied and I am not satisfied with the manner in which I am being operated. There is the office of the corder of deeds. There the committee has made certain changes and we have had certain understandings with the present corder, which hope will improve satisfactory service. If in another year it is found that conditions have not been changed or remedied, then will be necessary to consider further reference to the conduct of that office." The criticism of Mr. Free resulted from his failure to adopt recommendations of the bureau of efficiency after it had made in exhaustive form of review of the office of the corder of deeds.

Restoratives were applied and as the court sentenced her to serve six months in prison, she van rampant again when she screamed again and again: "Thank you, oh, thank you, Judge."

C., Feb. 24. Assistant Secretaries of the Treasury Carl T. Schuneman and Seymour Lowman will be asked to withdraw their approval of segregated toilet facilities in the postoffice at Selma, Ala., and to order the removal of signs designating the portion to be used by Race employees and the portion to be used by white employees, John T. Risher, representative of the National Alliance of Postal Employees here, announced Monday. Approve Arrangement At the same time, Mr. Risher made public letters written by Mr. Schmeiman and Mr. Lowman, Jr. in 1935. He arranged for the use of one-half of the facilities by white employees only and the other half by Race employees only. Lowman, in his letter under date of Sept. 2, 1937, stated: "This appears to be purely a matter of local building administration. It is not seen how any of the facilities are used when the toilet facilities at the building are equally divided among the white and Race employees, especially so when the larger number of employees are there. As there seems to be no just cause for complaint the department (treasury) does not feel warranted in taking any action at this time. In fact, the secretary of the secretary Schmeiman wrote to Roy O. Willhott, president of the National Alliance of Postal Employees, as follows: "The matter was taken up with the post office department and that department states that it believes that the morale of the postal force at Selma is not involved in the operation of the codium of the post office building at Selma, to whom the matter was also referred, states that he has received no complaints whatever from the employees concerning the toilet facilities. Will Take No Action "In view of the above, therefore, the department (treasury) does not feel warranted in taking any action regarding the matter in question." When the attention of the post office department was directed to this segregation by Mr. Wilholt, John H. Wilholt, was passed in general, passed the responsibility to the treasury department. He advised Mr. Wilholt, under date of Sept 21, 1937, as follows: as follows in which the department cannot possibly take action, as government owned buildings come under the jurisdiction of the supervising architect, treasury, being the custodian of all such buildings, it is incumbent upon him to issue appropriate instructions concerning the use of facilities accordingly forward your letter to the treasury department for appropriate attention."

Knox has always stood out in educational lines in the state. For years Georgia, Knox institute was the first accredited high school in the state of Georgia for the Race. It is non-profit, and the institution of first rank. The faculty and student body are made up of all denominations. There are Baptists, Methodists, Congregationalists, Episcopalians, and others. This campaign for funds will continue for several weeks. The alumni are no longer making a large amount of return and are interested in the education of the race to help keep the doors of this old and useful institution open, in order to increase the thousands of families that it has served and those thousands that live within radius of 40 miles and look daily to this institution. We are the most interested in the appointed.

HAS CHICKENPOX Little Lorraine McGhee, 4139 S. Wahash Ave. is confined to her home with chickenpox. DOCTOR GO LIGHT ON LAXAVES! A DOCTOR'S ADVICE GO LIGHT ON LAXATIVES! Everyone needs a laxative AT TIMES. But there is no need for making it HABIT. If you have the habit, but can be rid of it in thirty days. Or less! And this is how: The next time you go to take any strong cathartic—don't. Instead, take a little cascara. That's not a cathartic but the ph. of a tree. The laxative made with cascara couldn't harm a child. It is, in fact, the one cathartic man physicians will approve for children. Gentle as it is, cascaring is just as thorough in cleansing the colon as the more powerful purges that actually sap a person. Proof that there's no need from cascara begins the very day after taking. Instead of being clogged CASCARETS They Work While You Sleep! St. Joseph's G.F.P. CONTROVERSY SIDESTEPPED BY WILLIAMS Training School Not Mentioned Washington, D. C., Feb. 24.—Rev. I. K.

Baptists "run everything we run worse than ever, the bowels are more inland to grove UP THEIR OWN ACCORD. You may have to take cascara several times to establish regularity. But the times you need the gentle almine grow further apart. And you NEVER and you must increase the amount. Cascara's ideal form is the candy cascaret that please any palate, and you'll find them at the first drug store you ask.

He kept them together, he declared. Yet they have unity, and because "it is inside and fundamental." Baptists must stick to a gospel that is preached to the hearts of men and women. His only remark that can in any way be interpreted as a reference to the controversy concerning the school was his statement that "what happens with the name of the denomination ought to be subject to the denomination."

He predicted a possible development that will include the Race without separate standards. "Differences of Exerience" The group at the outward handicap of the Race is not the outstanding obstacle of progress. "It is that too little is expected of it." The group cannot contribute anything to humanity is a great handicap. This attitude is a matter of mere difference, a bias of mind. The condition in which the group is since the World war, Dr. Lekke asserts. Ideals would amount to little or nothing, the author predicted, unless a basis be found for the co-op-operation. He found two races: the Race has new contributions to make and must be given a chance," he said. He viewed the contributions as taking place in the same phases of life. He viewed the real difference between the races as a difference of skill. She presented the Harmon award to John Hardwick, a bronze medal and $100, for his achievements in the musical composition.

Doctor Found and Children More Of As a family doctor at Monticello, Illinois, the whole human body, not any small part of it, was Dr. Caldwell's call. "We were on women, children and babies. They are the ones most often sick. But their illnesses were usually of a minor nature—colds, fevers, "calls" were on women, children and babies. They are constipated. In the course of Dr. Caldwell's 87 years' practice (he was graduated in 1853), he found a good deal of success in such cases with a prescription of his own containing simple laxative herbs with pepin. In 1852 he decided to use a medicine to be known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, and that year his prescription was first placed on the market. He immediately had an great success in the drug stores as it previously had in Dr. Caldwell's private practice. Now, the third generation is using it. Mothers are given it and children are given it by their mothers. Second second of the working day someone somewhere is going into a drug store to buy it. Millions of bottles of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin are being used a year. Its great success is based on merit, on repeated buying, on one satisfied user telling another. There are thousands of homes in this country that are never without a bottle of Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pensin, and we have gotten many hundreds of letters from grateful people telling us that it is helpful them when everything else failed.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER COLOR LINE MAY BE DRAWN ON BUILDERS Propose Bill to Limit Contractors Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 24—Feeling the pinch of depressed labor conditions now prevailing in the state, white laborers are believed to be responsible for Councilman Healong (white), Democrat, introducing a bill in the city council to restrict Race contractors from either repairing or building any dwelling or edifice to be occupied by whites within the city limits. The bill also prohibits white contractors from doing work in a Race settlement. This proposed ordinance was read for the first time last Tuesday and was referred to the committee on laws and rules. Under the city laws, the city council would hold three separate meetings of the city council before it can become a law. Political Strategy Seen A bitter fight is being planned by labor organizations here to test the legality of the ordinance, should it pass. In discussing this situation, the office in the Citizens Insurance building, 610 W. Duval St., asserted that the Democrats were using this bill for political strategy. "The ordinance hope to pass it because this is general election year, and the council, as you know, is composed entirely of Democrats," the distinguished lawyer said. Before a building permit is issued it will be necessary to assure the authorities for whom the work is going to be done, if the bill is passed. The ordinance that provides punishments for exceeding $25, or by imprisonment not exceeding 10 days, for each offence, and each day that any person shall be convicted of this ordinance shall be taken and considered a separate offense. Wild Rumors Circulated It will be remembered that during the last six months a number of letter papers here from white laborers have appealed to industrial heads to turn off Race workers in order that white workers be allowed to but seemingly these wild rumors remain conditions.

Johnson's Red Cross Kidney Plaster is not to be considered as a remedy in any sense for these organic derangements—your physician must be consulted and his treatment taken for remedying the underlying causes. The plaster warms and soothes, and its medication at once begins to be absorbed through the skin directly to the affected parts. Its beneficial reaction, along with the plaster remains on the body.

Advice to the Wise and Otherwise Princess Mysteria Dear Princess: My story is a long one that has worried me for many years. About the years ago she said to me, "I should not for some time we were all the very best of friends. Then all of a sudden my sister accrued this girl of her helping her husband and would, do things this husband of my sister was of that sweet man type and would, do things every woman wanted him. She being of a very jovial nature, also thought that she has been nothing about this girl's sex life this man. She and I are still the very best pals, but my sister hates her and I don't. My sister is a friend when we are with this girl. She died and left her two children to support, and my sister has lived with a girl. I should not speak to this girl. Please Mrs. what is right in this case—Mr. You are a very sensible girl, and you are very kind and forgiving sin—so far, as the world is concerned—you are using good sense to quiet the loudest noise in the quiet. The set time for any event is always watched closely by the public, and you are not different. It is advisable that you have weddings do not always be happiness, and they must be strictly upheld by criticism. They are expensive and must be prepared for with the greatest care. You are young and the thrill of the first contact with old married people and awake, the FIELD AGENT Mary E. - Photo by B. D. Jonez MRS. CARRIE S.

Dear Madam: I am going with an old friend who lives two loves a few years back. He went away a few months ago and then another. In the meantime, he became engaged to a dear friends of mine. He now he has been calling on me ever since he does not discuss love still. He does not discuss love else and neither does he. I hear that he mentions—want about I don't know. Still, he never mentions her name to me; neither does his actions show that he cares for me. He thinks still and he works the week-end with me real soon. I don't see how I am at my real home. That I am doing wrong by being in his company. Do you think he cares for me at the last hour? Would you continue now? Do you think he has found that he does not love my friends? I am so confused on this affair—Peaches. A man's subject to sudden changes is often a bring disaster to one woman—maybe more. The average man wants every woman to be his own man, not monoply on the marketable female. He is away from him that he loses all in the end. Your gentleman friend should help you, knowing as you both do that he is supposed to engage in your friend's love and cause her to doubt your sincerity, and decide which one to take. In any case, it will cause embarrassment and possibility of you. I advise you to ask him re-read the letter, and as your excuse the fact that she is coming to see you and that you will be not doing wrong, but a conscience is valuable and should not be wasted. If one man tries to do it, get him told and woman is always in demand. My Dear Princess: I am a widow, 25, living in a small western town, 10 miles from a valuable appartment of appropriate age. I am not a gold man, but a sound elephant essential. Merry Widow. And they said there were no more girls. "They're gone," she she'll be somebody's girl friends soon.

SCOTT'S PICTURE ATTRACTS CROWDS AT FIELD'S SALON Among the pictures attracting much interest in the fourth annual Hoover salon at Marshall Field art gallery, surrounded by ferns and lighted windows, is the Wrigley Reflections. This picture hangs at the west entrance of the gallery, surrounded by ferns and lighted windows, and painting is of the Wrigley building background is the Trilune tower, and depicts that glorious landmark where Jean Laptte De Stable built a house in which firefighters in an opaque silhouetted firefires in an opaque silhouetted background. The scene is from Wacker drive, between Wabash and river, and was painted on murky, thawing, sloppy day. The entire sidewalk in the foreground, being covered with matter snow, reflects the Wrigley tower in the distance. This picture, which constantly has admiring critics before it, was painted by Richard Scott. Scott recently was honored by winning a medal in the William E.

The Defender's MOVIE and STAGE DEPARTMENT SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1928 The D IN OLD KAYSEE By CHARLES O'NEAL Kansas City, Mo.—The patrons of the Lincoln theater enjoyed another week of home talent offering which went over with a bang. This is the third week of local presentations and sketches, and this program until the shows on the circuit can produce something worth while. This would seem to make it easier to see the sketches they have been warned of and again that they shows offering old songs, obscene jokes and the same old bids and sketches would not be tolerated --- There have been companies showing here with six months to year inholdings with the same kind of finance, with the same old soiled costumes and other features that made the offering deplorable. Another thing that hurts business by bushing some show managers giving their wives or favorites the leading parts when they are unified for it, and holding real talented performers in the show. This causes hard feelings among the group and should be done away with. Another thing the writer has noticed on more than one occasion, some manners that are not appropriate to the stars on draw night and make the chorus girls and lesser lights wait until the end of the week, and then get half of a set of their salary, and nothing. Year after year shows and attractions are offered with perhaps new fronds and fictitious names, yet in Jamaica over and over, and discussed so as to fool the public. You fool the public but once and then the public fools you, collectors of these town masters and maker ideas these town might have a tendency to enlighten the theatrical world of the actual animations and expectations of the Mic when they come to town.

LINCOLN PERRY'S LETTER Dear Dave: How to begin this letter after such a long silence is indeed a mystery to me. I. e. without resorting to the excuse gag; but without well just forget and proceed. This leaves everything and everybody in Los Angeles' professional son is because my contract requires me to be a man of leisure when not in action for Tiffany-Sahl productions, but as the old saying, "Allness is the same." I find out to be very true why is one compelled to use the unsatisfied expression, "That's cold." Universal studio will begin work to give employment to many of the Colored picture actors, but as yet is not finished preparing, and as the united vehicle being prepared to star Carolyn Hampson's productions are, preparing me. To the Race theater managers I wish to ask that an interest be taken in trying to secure the Tiffany-Sinch productions because they have taken great progress in becoming real motion picture stars with the same privileges and chance of advancement as the whites. I don't mean they have succeeded in the race but in preference to the man-promising announcements Cecil B. DeMilles have been making and fail to put into action. Although I wish to say that prestige played no part in the temptation to believe, but the real cause of delay was the producers' doubt as to the success, ability and cooperation of those representing the Race picture artist needed when one role, for instance, the action of Charles Gilpin when casted for the important role of "Uncle Tom's Galin" only increased in the producers' mind that the Race artist would be able to convince that he would allow his pride to encourage him to misuse the advantage he possessed for personal gain. Then although James Lowe did assume them of our ability, ictors, and actors, he increased the belief that we would take advantage of our powers as if our personal gain meant all regardless of the fact that we would make the road harder for our fellow artist, and that we would have made of these two Race professional history makers, but to remind that our action, although not intentionally, plays sometimes two-thirds of the parts in our "nonadventure" and that us lies first in the phrase, "Conquer oneself and the rest is easy." The Meaning of Lent The season of Lent begins Feb. 23 and continues for 40 days, i.e. Easter morning, and to the showman and theater managers and owners it means a financial slump, but business benefits beyond the season of jinx. But to the Catholic it means the "acceptable time" the "day of salvation," the time to forget all and try to "conquer yourself." Among the profession over one-half of the professional many are ashamed to own it, but it is well that we all whether Catholic, Baptist or whatever you many he or like to be remembered. "That you are distend and unto you return," and let's not be life the "City that forget their God." The Columbia hotel is taking on new life since the old kang is beginning home to roost.

There are four hundred or more theaters in these United States that cater to Race patrons. Nearly all of them present photo plays with the actors and theaters, and 20 cents admission. Race patrons in 400 and 20 cents admission. Race patrons in 400 and the huge sum of $9,834 to the moving picture industry in one year. This is not counting the thousands of our people who see the movies in the white theaters. Even the patrons would like to see more of their people employed by the moving picture industry. Ministers in many places strenuously object to moving picture on Sundays. At first glance one is inclined to agree to object. In fact, always two sides to any question. Sunday is a day of rest. To the thousands of persons who do not attend church, it is a day of recreation also. The movies are intensely counted against an ever-present picture preaches a silent sermon against sin and the ultimate triumph of righteousness. They also preach more effectively and entertainingly than do the thousands who do not attend church because a fight foes so long as these do not abuse the moral, social Salem T.

When their protests against the daylight the injustices perpetrated against the difficult to reconcile such hypocrisy we cannot be coerced, bullied or leapt in fighting the movies could be their church services more instructive.

Pre and religious liberties of others. White ministers in the South are loud in their protests against the Sunday movies, but pusillanimously silent about the injustices perpetrated against their Race brothers and sisters. It is not unreasonable to profess Christianity. People cannot be coerced, bullied or legislated in churches. The time spent in fighting the movies could be more profitably employed in making their church services more instructive and entertaining. Our article, offering some criticism of the methods employed in the conduct of the T. O. B. A., has been misinterpreted by some performers and a member of the organization. There is one objection from any member or manager of the association. But we whisper that we have no personal feeling against the association or its members. We esteem nearly every member of the association as our personal friend. We criticized some of the methods of the T. O. B. A. as sincerely and frankly as every manager for whom we have played has criticized our shows. We have no personal feeling against the most consistent boosters. The success of the T. O. B. A. means the success of Race show business generally, that is why we are so intensely interested. why we are so intense of our people are attending their own now such as hazardous undertaking a white time. Take Indianapolis of our shows played at the Carnegie Hall and themselves from the balcony. The way to enough of our people during at one performance. The same the A.

This is the reason that it is now such a hazardous undertaking to attempt to pilot in Race show over the white time. Take Indianapolis as an example. In 1992, the theater at Lincoln Center in New York city, white people who could gain admission had to plaster themselves against the walls or drape themselves from the balcony. The last of our shows to play there did not play to enough of our people during the week to pack the theater at one performance. The same thing obtains in nearly every other theater in New York city, where the white audience for its support. Harlem feels happy and at home in the Lafayette, Alhambra and Lincoln theaters. Mr. Gibson has made his two theaters in Philadelphia so pretty and comfortable, and offers his painter a high level of entertainment that the white theaters are longer considered an opposition. We need the T. O. B. A. and the association needs us. It is as important and as just that the performers play fairly with the association as it is that the association feels squarely with us. Neither the association nor the general theater-going public. I expect to escape criticism, no matter our work or how great our in hope to escape.

Only those below criticism may hope to escape. After all, criticism is a form of publication, and it is important to support upon the public for support of their enterprises. More effective methods of activising the shows playing the T. O. B. A. is most important. Managers of the shows and the theaters must co-operate to see that this is accomplished. Edgar Davis, millionaire and philanthropist, who is promoting the "Ladder" now playing in New York city, presented the town of Luling, Tex., a millionaire philanthropist, to the students he founded to learn that the Race people of Luling were not considered a part of the public and were excluded from the park. Mr. Davis has spent most of his busy life overcoming difficulties and surmounting obstacles. He disposed of this situation by building an exact duplicate park for the Race people of Luling. So "jm-crow" Luling is now the proud possessor of two --- runs across evidences of race pride, preachers, preachers and so-called "be called to soft-pedal their protests, except when they happen to strut for their jobs and our politicians' bull.

One of these happened to be a Race Pride activist who was kicked off the street by a kick his white opponent after he had knocked him down. This the fighter refused to do. He lost his job, but, as the story runs in Collier's Weekly, he was a credit to his Race. This is the reason that he gave for not complying with the director's instructions: "My people are disliked enough already. I'll not prejudice against them."

All performers should lay in a supply of good manners with their other theatrical necessities. Good manners can be used very effectively in the dressing rooms and about the stage. If you knock another performer's shoes, you will be caught in a tickle. If they were not secure or were hanging in the wrong place, it is good manners to attend to one's own business and not interfere in the affairs of others. Gossips, sore-heads, swell-heads and supervengers are to be found in almost every company. They breed trouble and discontentment and tend to lower the morale of any show. Performers must learn that no matter how great their talent, it does not count for more than the morale of the show. The indispensable performer has not yet been located.

Stop working for nothing around the price of work; if you can't get it, get out of the business. Do not allow the booking agent to get more out of the engagement than you do yourself. It is ridiculous the price most of the acts pay, and you are summoned that singles are paid as low as $5 a hight, doing sometimes as high as four and five shows nightly, and teams $10 to $15 nightly. Try to do business with them in your services with them, with them your services. They need you just as bad as they think you need them, and in this way you yourselves can get all the money, cutting out the greed book, and with them your small commission of 5 per cent—that is if the booking agent is licensed by the state of Illinois.

Can be LINWOOD'S LETTER By LINWOOD BRADLEY When the Whitman sisters arrived in Cleveland every member after getting located in the Majestic hotel fell in the hay for a few hours' rest. When Alberta Whitman came out of her room on her way to the theater, she was flirted with a livered to Alice Whitman. Not knowing the contents of the letter Alice opened and read it, and the things she saw were so disturbing that make any sister, brother, mother, father put the law on the trail of the writer. The letter was given to the police and they started on the trail of the man that called himself "The Woman." When "The Wolf," as he called himself, gave Alberta Whitman the mystery letter on Monday he said he would return the next day. Tuesday, he would return about 10 a.m. the next day he did have the nerve to return for an answer. He was invited into the writing room of the Majestic hotel and was highly entertained until the police arrived. He was told that he had called himself "The Wolf" had escaped from a place where he was being treated by the city in hopes of caring him of the drug habit. He is being held in a jail, and a said that after all was said and done she certainly was sorry she was the unlucky one. Miss Jennie Woods, pianist at the Fountain theater, who has been sick for some time, is back on the job and Pittsburgh has always been a good date for the gang, even with a two weeks' engagement, but week of Feb. 6 gave us rain or snow every day, and the bad business during the week.

The gang opened a two weeks' engagement at the Globe, Cleveland, and with a flying start. From the opening to the closing all musical numbers, including single, took from one to three encores, and at the closing of the show the audience was still asking for a glause. Snow and rain one day so far. Clarence Williams, former cornetist of the Globe theater orchestra, who has been working in Buffalo, N. Y., for the past 12 months, has returned and is holding the old job again. Wish we could get the musicians playing in the pit to stop talking and playing in the pit when the show is on. Some of them are still missing their cues and then pick up whatever number they are to play when they want to. Of course if the leader does it you can't expect any more from them, so they are as they were led by him.

Her soft caress, on barren trees, Her soft caress, on bare leaves A fragrant breath, a dash of rain, And earth intrigued, gave up its grain. Each crimson dawn she'd sweep croon, A million song birds joined the tune. A thousand faces in dance Gaunt-earth became a paradise. Her exhibition was so fine I quite forgot the flight of time. Ah well! thought I, there's time enough To write my name In golden letters 'cross the sky' And then—love came. That was what we were made Accompice of a sweet-voiled maid; Nor wealth, nor fame, nor paradise Dispel the lure of virtue's eye. Her lips, a cherry scented dream; Her smile—a sunbeam nestled there Then turned to bronze her ebon hair. And heaven boasts no more of bliss That she kisses. Was heaven jealous of its loan. That all too soon it claimed its own? And then came those who made their claim Upon my time in friendship's name; Aye friendship! love's divinest art, The magic key that itits each heart. Small wonder that time slipped my mind, There's so much joy in being kind, "The saddest words of tongue or pen, We're told are these, "It might have been." The things desired, I can't forget. And yet they cause me no regret. Real happiness demands its price. It must be bought with sacrifice. Chicago Theatrical News on, well known theatrical man, is in the city on a few days.

KELLUM Displaying a bewildering passing game, with dazzling speed and unerring ability to shoot baskets, the undefeated Wilberforce university: quintet trimmed the Savoy Big Five Monday night, 29 to 18, on the Savoy court. More than 2,000 fans saw the college lads triumphant for the second time over the Chicagoans. The contest was the fastest, cleanest and most thrilling to be seen on a focal floor this season. Four times the score was tied. Six times the Chicagoans held an advantage, while eight times the visitors took the lead. The Ohioans broke all records for clean playing when they survived the game with one foul. Seven fouls were committed by the Savoys. Wilberforce was able to make good with only three of the free tosses. It was a heart breaking game for Savoy to lose, for the Chicagoans had played Wilberforce to a standstill until few minutes before the final gun bunker. The Chicago team, by virtue of its victories over Fisk and Lincoln universities and the Pittsburgh Loews quintet, ruled favorites despite the fact that Wilberforce in the 28 setback by Wilberforce early in the season. As was true in their first meeting, the Ohioans' amazing passing attack and ability to handle the ball when covered were largely responsible for the Graves used r. mun-for-mian defense that completely disrupted the Savoy's famous short shots. Lillard and Watson, star forwards for Savoy, never got going. They had to retire the game without hooping a basket. Wilmerforce broke the lee by scoring four points before their opponents rallied one. Nine minutes elapsed before Buckeye defense. Brookins, shooting from the side lines, hooped the first basket. Rock Anderson, formerly of the Cleveland Eiks, playing his first game for the locus, led up the works on the first play. He floored. On the tip-off from center on the next play Anderson received the ball and dribbed it under the basket to untle the score. This lead was of brief duration, for Cleveland's security one from the free-throw line to knot the count again. The score alternated rapidly during the half and at the intermission, both teams had registered the same total of points—Wilmerforce, 10; Ten seconds after the start of the half Ramsey dropped in a basket to put the Chicagoans out in front. Anderson, but the score was knotted again when Evans and Thompson sent the pumpkin sailing through the hoop. Evans broke the tie on Wrlicht's foul. On the way to the basket, the score dropped in a basket to bring the Savoy score to 18 points. At this point the Savoy defense crumpled, and their coach repeatedly shifted his line-up. He five minutes to play and trailing by three points, Wilberforce unloosed a wildwind attack that completely swept the Brooklyn-Ramsey Anderson combination off his feet, forcing the Chicagoans to forfeit four Ohioans. Evans and Ward played stellar roles. This tricol brought the score from 15 points to 29 and was still going strong when the final gun Larry Thompson, former national tennis champion, and Carter deserve special mention for their playing. Ramsey and Anderson featured for Savoy. Anderson accounted for eight points, Ramsey came second six points. Thomas Brookins, captain of the Savoy team, brought fans to their feet during the final seconds of play when he became the athletic and loved Gibbs to the floor while the youngster was in the act of shooting a basket. He was booed and blessed to such an extent that the Savoy coach sent him to the bench. Learn Your Future Are you searching for the truth? Why do you be courageous when you go to happen to you?

Feb. 15—Young Harry Wills evened things up in his Seattle ring tournament with Freddy Mack (white) at the Crystal pool last night, taking the decision over the Seattle welter in six rounds of hectic battling. Wills, after four meetings with Mack in Coast rings, has apparently fathomed the latter's style, and took nearly every round. The first canto was about even, the second gave Mack a shade, but then on the third round, he went at it hammer and tongs from the first bell. Mack spending most of his steam in the early rounds. Wills used a left uppercut and right foot, good advantage and succeeded in the punches that won for Mack last week. Wills, however, took some punishment in the second and third rounds when Mack was trying his best. Mack, at 146, was four pounds lighter than he was for last week's appearance, but still had a five or six-pound edge over the San Diego show, which was witnessed by a fair-sized and enthusiastic house. Trouble, and plenty of it, looms for the middleweights and light heavies in this week the woods from the way Horse William of Virginia trounced Battling Sim, Bellingham 170-pound, in the semiwindup. Sim started out as if he was going so place and make things interspecies. William the William took his time and opened up during the third and fourth rounds, giving Sim a bad pass. Bellingham the William took an awful licking in fifth round, being knocked to the floor once and falling down twice. His handlers tossed in the towel near the end of the fifth session. Williams could like to see more of Williams. Roy Sutherland followed Omar Wright all around the ring for four rounds, but couldn't connect and dropped the call to the clever Yakima Light, timing his punches with care and bobbing away from Sutherland's haymakers. Wright took every round. Demon Runyan, a mite of energy from the second round call to Ray Woods in the second bout. Fans thought the little Oregon lad deserved a draw for his gameness, but Woods put over the telling blows and was the smarter bolt. Ray Clark took a beating from Ray Huffman for two rounds and then came back strong to win the verdict.

Wendell Phillips high school star, but Phillips coached and watched by Phillips and Roosevelt lies the story of a 26 to 12 defeat handed the Bowen team Tuesday in the second game of the semifinal round-robin play of the Chicago high school basketball league in the lightweight division. As it was the game at Englewood high school gym was a runaway for the 35th streeters in the second half. The Red and Black machine was at it completely threw Bowen up in the air. Pullins divided honors with Miller with three ringers each, while Gay was a close second with two baskets and one free toss, and Harper got a nice basket. Wallel made a basket. The only redeeming feature to the one-sided victory, as far as Bowen was concerned, was the work of Todd Roosevelt, last year's lightweight champs, upset the dope in the West, north section scrap by beating Senn, 26 to 21, and the Phillips and Roosevelt teams are the only two unoffeted teams in the championship game. Phillips meets Lindblom Friday at Englewood at 3:30, white Roosevelt takes on Harrison at the same time at Englewood at 3:30, white Philips and Roosevelt will mean that the two teams meet in the finals of the city championship.

Others will doubtless unite with the group and make the number still larger. NOTICE TO BASKETBALL SCORERS Owing to the fact that some schools score basketball games different from others and that we are trying to have a uniform style, we are asking correspondents to send their games in as follows: Player's name, position, baskets, free throws and personal fouls. A sample follows. Do not use last column for total points. Milwaukee (33) Jones f...... Reid f...... Haney c...... Smith g...... Reed g...... Rollins g...... - Defects The fact that Rollins got into the game as guard is shown in the foul column where Reed got three fouls called on him and was probably playing a rough game. Those who follow the old style of using total points in the third column will have their copy assigned to the wastebasket. --- SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1928 FRAT QUINTS WILL BATTLE FEBRUARY 27 Game to Be Big Event of the Season --- For a long time there has been a lot of so-called challenges hurled by one Greek letter fraternity in Chicago at another one and a whole gang of "ifs" and "ands" as to which of the three leading frats had the best basketball team. This winter the Kappas got a 1 cocky and started shooting off th. bazoo," so one of the Omega men told the Defender reporter and the Omega called the Kappas bluff. As a result, on Monday evening, Feb. 27, the two frats will fight it on the floor of the Savoy ballroom to settle the argument. Sol Butler former Dubuque college star and now a professional athlete, also against E Ditchtey, former captain of Wilberforce's football team and a basketball player of no mean height and big Fisher as well as Lester Johnson, late of Howard university. The Kappas felt sort of downhearted to have the "jelly-fished" Omegas their teams all to shreds and not hot all to shredding a statement that they can lick the Omegas with one hand tied behind them. But the public don't know how to find it out a week from Monday. Of course, Brother W. Ellis Stewart, Brother Jimmy Jones, Brother Robert S. Abbott and 300 other students at the university and cream and will go down hook, line and sinker on the Kappas as they don't believe their team can lose. The Kappas boast of Curry Chairman of the Y. M. C. A. college; Stuart DePriest, late of Lane Tech; Robert Landrum, formerly of Wentworth; also of Phillips; Eugene Eaves, former Phillips heavyweight captain; Kenneth Stewart, captain of the Phillips lights which tied for the city in 2001; former member of the Northwestern university golf team. Attorney Harold Tyler will most likely make the team which is coached by Ruben Cohen, captain of Howard university five. The Omegas haven't such an array of talent, but Brothers Cude, Walker, and others are about to draw their small change from the local banks to cover the Kappas bank. And it looks there is going to be a real war on. The Omegas present for the first time, their Quinter. Frank Young, has decided that he is too old to play and besieges him by Dewey Jones and one of his Hinds. He is one of those basketball suits and would break up the game. David Kellum, who once went to Phillips following his exit from Greenville, is trying to make the grade, but he has to do it. Dr. H. Reginald Smith is urging him on despite the Yact that H. R. S. an Alpha. Harvey Whitfield, who is called Gabby" and who comes from the referee into letting him and his team win. Howard Shaw, who keeps the electric doings all set for the Pullman company, and Chick Colen in, who some day wants to be the register, is also in charge of Charlie Chaplin the night we saw him practice, are two more players, white Paul Jones, C. H. Taylor, H. C. Grant, James Moore, T. C. Haines, Harold McCormack, and formerly of Englewood, make up the balance of the purple and gold squad. B. B. Church of the South Side Boys' club is doing the coaching, while Carl Washington and Dr. Cade B. Church of the South Side Art Turnbull of the Kappas they will look out after the financial end of the game. The game will be a society event. The Alphas will be out and if either one of the teams look like or even feel like they own the world, the Alphas will be ash organized to knock off the Kappas. Anyhow, all roads will lead to 47th St. and South parkway on Monday evening, Feb. 27, to witness the first game of the season. In the meantime, Charlie Jackson, George Kersey, Dan Jackson, Mrs. Johnson, McGavoy, Fountain and cleaning up their morgue undertaken the ambulances oiled and greased because it is going to be a tough game. A special room has been set aside at the hospital to take care of the wounded or the players who run out of gas. McVey Loses to Maxie Rosenbloom in 8 Rds. New York, Feb. 18—Because Jack McVey couldn't catch Maxie Rosenbloom with a solid punch he lost an eight-round decision in the semifinal of the Ace Hudkins-Sammy Baker game at the Garden where 16,876 fans wanna hurt Jack with his cuffs and slaps which kept the crowd in a pretty good humor even if it was no exhibition of the flat game. CAIRO BEATS SPRINGEIELD Cairo, IL. Feb. 13.—Summer hips of Caliro downed the Springfield Hornets, 32 to 21. Summer displayed a wonderful attack in the second half which counted for the large count. We will have the scoring stars for Summer and Porter and Frazier for the Hornets. Women, according to statistics, spend more on their make-up and armament spends on warships, and that probably explains why they hardly ever out to dinner. New York Evening Post. LINCOLN GIANTS BACK IN FOLD SPORTS TURDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1928 Girls' Quintets Nothing Wrong Don't Get Sore Dr. Morrison COACHES of our girls' basketball teams haven't come to any definite system as to whether to play girls' make up. In most of the girls' games this day and time, five are used but still in some parts of the South the coaches can in the old order of things and six are used. As long as we use the other follows' rules and his ball, net and mark make up, we must just as well cut off the sixth player and make all teams five girls each. What would Caddif do if their girl team was scheduled to play Tuskegee- 图 1 图 2 EASTERN sport writers became a bit peeved because President Nutter and the directors of the eastern airlines out of some business that was of interest only to the league and not to the public, therefore no outliers, not even newspapers, were admitted. The bigger circles. There was nothing wrong with that procedure. The裁判 was over the裁判s were given a nice release to make a good story. Lots of times when ma and pa have a little conference the boy is in the room. Some old system that all. When Flowers was robbed of his decision in Chicago we happened to be with a number of daily newspaper men and all sat outside the "holy chamber" where he had what could or could not be done. Then the stenographer was called in and soon she emerged and went to the typewriter desk and "knocked" off some copy. Each correspondent was given a phone number the nearest telephone to acquaint the desk man at his office what had taken place. Some of us expect too much. The magnates aren't trusting everybody because some have betrayed the trust. --- AND Coach Graves with his Wil- berforce basketball team blew into town for the second time this season and for the second time they trouned the team with Chicago fans to some change and these folks will no doubt eat "coffee and" for breakfast the rest of the week. Only foolish folks put on basketball hats, but ball or any other kind of sport. Betting rules sport. It came near killing baseball. Don't get mad at the Savoy players, because they did the best they knew how. So this game was both to Wilberforce which in our way of figuring makes Wilberforce a first rate team just a bit better each time than the Savoy team which has won nine games. Getting beat by the Ohio lads is no disgrace. The players shouldn't feel that way. Everyone with an ounce of sense knows that Graves is an up-to-date coach. He has eliminated the team and has a championship combination. Few teams, if any, could have won against them Monday night. If you were on the Savoy players, you were a few bucks shy, don't take it out on the Savoy players, take it out on yourself and next time don't bet—then you can enjoy the game. ```markdown ``` DR. Billy Morrison, former Tufts college star, now coach of Lincoln's basketball team, brought a well coached, well disciplined team to the game, although the gatekeepers lost, they wrote Lincoln's down in the memory of all who love clean sports. Billy got time enough between the end and sure victory as good as goodness of his mind" to which we had to peacefully listen as he was the guest of honor. Aided once in awhile by some Lincolnites who sojourn in these parts and who Morrison let it be known that he "hadn't any green football team" and that he objected to it being called such—that in all branches of sports Lincoln would be heard from this year. We learned something worth while. The Hampton, Tuskegee and Penn relays will be invaded. That's a certain. Furthermore, Lincoln has 25 more, too. Like Young, younger brother of the jate Couch U. S. Young, and Sydnor are out for the high jump and both hold nice records while in New Jersey high schools. Young and Sydnor does 22 in the bread jump. Hillman, former captain of the Wilkesbarre high school of Pennsylvania, is at present doing better than he was at college, but he vaults and will be entered in the Hampton games with an eye on first place in that event and an effort to establish new records in the other pole wrestler. Fletcher and Derry of last year's relay teams are coming along fine. Morrison will take 15 men into the Intensity with the firm intention of lugging all the cups worth while back to Chester, Pa. IN the meantime bow legs and pigeon toes and slow footers have been used in Chicago and when we found out what it was all about—why those birds looked like anything but men from their waist down—we learned that they had been used for Omega or the Kappa笼. These two frats meet in the first annual civil war in Chicago Monday night. St. Christopher Club Defeats Phila. Elks Philadelphia, Pa.

The five-man offense which Alabama State used proved ineffective against the Fiskites. In the second game, the players developed fast team work and a passing that spooled any chances the Alabama boys had.

Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY Gardner Returns to the Chicago Club; Montalvo to Cubans as Two Leagues Meet --- By ROLLO WILSON (Eastern Sport Writers Association) Philadelphia, Pa., Feb. 21.—The Eastern and Western leagues in join session here in the Southwest branch Y. M. C. A. today made several important changes in the national agreement and in other matters affecting the mutual interests of the associations. Previously to the joint meetings, the leagues had held separate sessions. In the eastern meeting, Jameson an, owner of the Lincoln Glants, was readmitted to membership and the league decided to have rotating umpires in the pay of the league. Seven outlers in the league will be thurched out later in the week. Following the reading of the national agreement, it was voted to make several changes in the context of some of this was accomplished by an amendment which embodied the following features: 1. The world's series commissioners shall be the presidents of the two national associations of the two winning clubs. 2. All arrangements for the series shall be in the hands of the league manager by J. L. Wilkerson of Kansas City, that all games should be played either in the East or the West, altering the money saved on railroad fares would thus be available for the players. 3. Only the winning club in each league receives receipts. This cuts out the second and third teams, who have shared heretofore. 4. The amendment nullified that part of the agreement which said that a player had the right to sign up with any other club provided he been the game for more than one club. Each club owner furnishes the presidents with a reserve list of players. Since Kocean has returned to the league, Montalvo and Jelly Gardner was voided and these players returned to the reserve lists of their respective American Giants.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDERS GIANTS turns to the Montalvo to Leagues Meet TUSKEG 2 WINS 24TH IN DANIE DOINGS BY ERIC ROBERTS BASKETBALL is in its declining days in Dixieland now, and after the Clark-Morris Brown affair is over the curtain will be ready to fall. Durant, who was played by Alabama State and Talladega divided a brace of games, Alabama defeated Tuskegee and Clark put the team on the road. There was little of action from a conference standpoint up in Tennessee. The game between the red and black panther of Clark and Morris Brown promises to be the outstanding game of the season. The game is causing quite a bit of unusual commotion in these games, and Morris Brown is the only southern combination to defeat the panthers on their own court in the past, as spectators in the extreme and it will be worth anybody's time to journey out to Sunset park and see Squat Johnson, Beck, and Zed Bradley and Roberts in action. The fact that Wayman Carver and his collegiate Ramblers will be on hand is an added attraction and bring in additional customer THIS game will in all probability decide the conference champions for 1928 in basketball. The conference will decide the 12 conference games to be played before a team can receive consideration for the championship. In this case, Morris Brown, even if she won, would not play. The purple team has only played a half dozen conference foes. While Clark has played an even number of conference championship, this column reaches your table and we will all know who are to receive the conference trophy. The Morris Brown team has just received two victories in eastern courts. This invasion proved very disastrous as in the three games played, two were defends at the hands of the opposing team. The purple team says that the olicating in these two games was rotten, especially the Seminary game. The purple team does not interested in such technicalities, we only desire to know who won. MOREHOUSE at this writing is in out East on the very same trip that the Wolveries made. The Maroons won three and lost three. The teams not as good this year as a whole as they were a year ago. The only exceptions were the Clark and Morris Brown quintets. Both of these teams are as good or better than third place. The race this year was conference race for the present year is over and the games scheduled to be played from now on will be merely minor skirmishes for positions lower than third place. The race this year was the final round and the defeat of Clark by Morris Brown earlier in the season served to make the affair more interesting. The teams under these two were matched and every game took on the air of championship caller. COACHES right now are beginning to wonder who will start their first game as a twirler. The baseball team's approach to its approach the athletes are scheduled to leave the indoor courts and go back to mother earth in baseball for Dixie probably visited a well appalled and from now on the fellows will be tossing and batting the pill all over the lot. The first games are scheduled for the next week. Since the professional player is banned it would seem like the teams will be fairly well matched. Alabama will be the first team to win and Clark, who won the preceding year, have most of the same men on their rosters. It is hopelessly speculative, but then they will early so we will be content to wait until they swing into action. Cleveland Elks in Cleveland, Ohio, Feb. 24. —The Cleveland Elks chalked up their 13th win of the season by trimming the Seneca Indians, 32 to 27, at Elks' Monday evening, before a record crowd.

In a last half contest, which had the capacity crowd at the Spring St. X figuratively hanging from the rafters in enthusiasm, Trailing, 23 to 17, the Greeks suddenly went into a scoring fit which gave them a last half total only three points short of the entire points registered by the West Virginia. Virginia was entire master of the situation in the first half of tonight's game. Their deceptive handling and passing of the ball, combined with mennony ability, to win the game, made that victory was only a matter of time. With Early, Shannon and Giles counting from impossible angles the score at half time found the eventual victory by six points. Alpha PhiAlpha only once in the initial period, at 5 to 4.

PRO ATHLETICS AMATEUR ATHLETICS VS. PRO ATHLETICS First Annual Southwestern Intercollegiate Cage Play Opens at Wiley on Friday The young athlete of today is being confronted with this everlasting problem as to whether he shall continue as an amateur or be roped into the field of so-called semiprofessionals. Young men and boys by the hundreds have found themselves classified as professionals who are innocent of the act of professionalizing themselves. In many cases they do not know the rule which makes them professors, but they have not been given the proper interpretation or guidance by the men who have taken it upon themselves to direct their activities in the athletic field. The first thing that an athlete should have settled in his mind should be the clearcut definition of an amateur and second of the violations which will make him a professional. The definition of an amateur as used by all amateurs of the United States is as follows: An amateur sportman is one who participates in competitive gymnastics or athletics only for pleasure and training. He is not a sportsperson because social benefits directly derived therefrom and to whom sports are nothing more than an avocation. A professional athlete is a person who promotes or participates in gymnastics and other sports of any purpose than the above stated. The term "professional" is here used to include both the bona fide and the petty or technical profession. A professional statement of an amateur was sufficient to hold the young athlete in the field of amateur. The whole foundation of athletic competition was built on the idea of the best athlete, the mental, mental and moral improvement. As the great masses were attracted to athletic competition, the shearest business man began to see an opportunity to compete and the expense of the competing athlete. So vigorously did the commercial world work in gaining control of athletics in America, together with the European countries, found it necessary to make a change in the way the made an unate athletics professional. Among the outstanding definitions which are used by all bona fide unate organizations of this country: A-Violations which make an amateur professional: 1. Coaching professional athletes for pay. 2. Competing under salary or for a fee. 3. Competing for a cash prize or for a staked bet. B-Violations which disqualify an amateur for financial or mercenary reasons: 1. Competing for or accepting in- By BERT LEWIS Marshall, Tex. Feb. 17.—The first annual southwestern intercollegiate tournament will begin at 3 p.m. m. Fri. 10 p.m. Sat. 10 p.m. on Saturday. Feb. 25. under the sponsorship of Wiley college and in the Wildcat gym. We are expected to mean much for the advancement of basketball as a major sport in the southwestern conference. Six strong teams will be on hand to display their wares. Lansing, Texas; Houston, Bishop, Texas college, Jarvis, and Wiley. Each of these aggregations has希望 be able to fairly judge any one on the best in the Southwest, and continuous interest is expected to be maintained throughout the entire elimination. We are confident that the tournament should be held on the campus of Wiley, for this school, with Bishop, engaged in the first football game in the southwestern conference. This informal sport of basketball should also be brought to its full maturity here is meant fitting in light of the success of Bishop, a pioneer along other athletic lines. All indications point to the fact that the time is overripe for the tournament. Those who have witnessed games, both with and without laters, in the season have been impressed by the change in the attitude of the players. The game is becoming to be recognized by both participants and spectators as being more a secondary pastime than a primary affair. The importance is entirely in place to stimulate a better consideration of basketball in the Southwest. The championship tilt at 9 Saturday will be the crowds event of the tournament. The tournament will be made an annual affair if it proves successful this year. Springfield Aces in 35 to 15 Cage Win SPORTS ducements other than approved medals or trophies. 2. Competing for or accepting reimbursement exceeding actual expenses for competitor. 3. Competing for or accepting any share of gate receipts. 4. Disposing of prizes for personal gain. 5. Betting upon a contest in which the batter is a participant. 6. Disqualifying a disability amateur for moral reasons: a. Competing under an assumed name. b. Representing facts regarding eligibility, ability or performance. c. Technical violations which disqualify an amateur: a. Competing with or against protesters for a prize or in open competition. b. Promoting or officiating at professional contests. c. Promoting amateur contests for protesting. d. Being a party to any attempt to induce an amateur to dishonorably violate his standing as an amateur. e. Being an amateur to amateur a noncompeting amateur: Teaching or supervising; for pay, amateur athletics or physical education in an institution, organization, disciplinary board. We have at the present time men who are exploiting our young high school and college athletes for financial gain in order to the physical, mental or moral development of the athlete or think little of his future. So long as the athlete can increase the receipts at a box office this promoter is satisfied. The moment the athlete ceases to be a drawing card, he is discarded and forgotten. If the athlete is given permission to be the promoter of his achievement up to the promoter's expectation he is discarded. It is these discarded athletes who need protection and guidance as well as young athlete who is in the making. His whole idea of fair play, mental and moral standards and oftimes his physical standards are destroyed in the allmighty dollar through athletic competition. He will sacrifice his physical life, his moral standards and even his social standards in order to make money that he has been taught or encouraged to use methods that are not of the very highest type to gain his end in defeating his opponent or deceiving the spectator. The statistics are as much despleged by the bona fide professional athletic organization as they are by the amateur. His discarded semipro athlete could be live up to the high standard of some of our leaders in professional baseball as they are the late Christie Mathewson or Walter Johnson, there would be no cause for complaint on his behalf. The story of the effect of the so-called semiprogram on his after life is an interesting but uneven one. In life, the program will give ill-effects as to some of the effects.

The Savoy Big Five played sensational basketball to triumph over the speedy Lincoln university quintet of Chester. Pa. 36 to 13. Wednesday night at the Savoy ballroom. The contest was fast and furnished thrills galore for the small gallery. The college players played chivalry and played on a local floor this season. At no time did they contest the decisions of the officials, which was a marked contrast to the week, who made several attempts to strike the referee because they believed they were being dealt with unfairly. Lincoln cugers, weary front their trip through the South, where they hung up a record of five victories in a row, displayed a fast passing attack and staged a tight defense to the shut shut routes. Four times the count was knotted. Five times during the first half the Lincoln held an advantage through the remarkable shooting of Silvera, who hooked six sockets. Watson was high-point man for the Chicago team, and the last few minutes of play for having committed the maximum number of fouls. Carrying out with a burst of speed Lincoln scored four points before the Savoy could get possession of the pumpkin. This lead was of brief duration, however, for two free throws and an interruption caused the count to be knotted at four-aall. The half ended with the home team in possession of a 16 to 13 advantage. Savoy opened up with a fast passing attack shortly after the opening of the half. Ramsey and Lillard scored two baskets to give the Savoy a 16 to 13 advantage in a row again put Lincoln within striking distance. The score, Savoy, 20: Lincoln, 19. In order to underline the basket shot showcasing easterners into the lead, a second inter Brookings tossed in a pretty basket from the sidelines to overtake the lead, and from this point the Chicagoouts outspired Lincoln to win. The cheering of the Chicago chapter of the Lincoln University Alumni association was an outstanding feature of the game. The yells instilled into the travel-worn youngsters. The Lincoln cagers, coached by William E. Morrison, formerly of Tufts college, Medford, Mass., are en route home after a trip through the South Carolina State University, Hampton, West Virginia, Union, Shaw, North Carolina State and Petersburg universities.
