Chief Meets Subcommittee Herbert D. Brown, chief of the bureau of efficiency, told the subcommittee that Free evidently believed that the investigation made by the bureau was designed toust the employees of his race from their jobs. We asked the District subcommittee of the house appropriations committee Dr. Havemeyer said: "We made quite an exhaustive study of the work of the office of the bureau, and we made a study as to the work of the office in this city, we made studies of similar offices in a large number of cities throughout the United States, and we made features we found, and we submitted a report something over a year ago. Objects to Recommendations "In the report as submitted the recorder objected to a number of recommendations made by the bureau with him and other officials of his office and friends outside, we withdrew what he said at the time were modified the report, and the recorder then agreed to every recommendation in it and stated he would work hand in hand with the bureau in installing the program made in the recommendations in this report. "That agreement has not been lived up to. A very few of the recommendations have been adopted in part only."

Officers Elected Only One Contest --- Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY EST 55 Charge FAKE DETAILS HID SHOOTING OF YOUNG BOY High Officials Named in Indictments Miami, Fla., March 9.—The entire city administration was thrown into confusion last Friday when a grand jury returned indictments charging Lleut. M. A. Tibbits and John Caudell, white city detectives, with first degree murder for the slaying of H. Kier, bell boy at the El Conodoro hotel, whose bullet-riddled body was found in a secluded part of N. W. Seventh Ave., July 16. 1925. The testimony given the jury implicates Chief of Police H. Leslie Quigg, who is alleged to have framed the murder. The accused detectives was so surrulting that the grand jury denied their pleas for freedom and refused to allow their attorneys to arrange for General Freedom With the conclusion of the habeas corpus hearing during which the grand jury investigation of the case was bared, three city commissioners appeared in the jury and the jury They had been summoned by the jury as had May E. G. Sewell and City Commissioner C. W. Reedan, who could not be located by search officials it is though will be quizzed in connection with the case. Three witnesses were called at the habeas corpus hearing. There were McCreary (white), operator of El Comercio (black), Breechee, and E. W. Pierce, both white, former city detectives. The hotel owner testified that the bell boy had been employed at the hotel on May 15, 2005, a complaint was received from a woman guest that her daughter had been insulted by Kler. The insult turned out to be that the bell boy had been told to make an engagement, a male guest at the hotel. This was in the youth's line of duty as a deliverer of messages at the hotel. The owner called the police, one of whom denied that he had insulted the he was struck over the head by Pierce, the hotel man testified. When the bell boy regained his senses he was taken to the police Five Bullets in Head "Put the d—n— in the can, but don't slate him with any charge," former Detective Pierce testified he was instructed by Police Chief Quiggs, who was the company with Beechey, Candell and Detective Tom Nazworth, carried Kler out to a police machine. They took the youth to N. W. Seventh Ave, near 80 St., Beechey testified on the day, and told them though they were going to take Kler to the county line and send him North, a practice that was in vogue at that time. The automobile stopped Beechey testified, Nazworth grubbed Kler, threw him to the ground and reached for his (Nazworth's) pistol, in the struggle Nazworth fired a wild shot that Beechey hit Tibbits, continued to fire at the struggling youth until he was dead, it was staged. Kler, when found five bullets in his head. The body of the youth was left on the hospital, the officers took Tibbits to Jackson Medical hospital. The police chief was called to the hospital and told of the shooting, Beechey stated. The chief advised the detectives to agree on a plan of occurrence" and "stick to it." Beechey continued. This, he said, was done. Slaying "Covered" The local papers July 16, 1925, stated that Motorcycle Sergeant Tibbits had been shot and wounded in the abdomen by an unidentified assailant at the baseball park in Niles First, near the gas plant. "Police have no clues as to Tibbits' assault. An unidentified person phoned police headquarters that several men were causing a disturbance in the ball field. Detectives Bechey, Candell and Nazworth, answered the call. They did not discover any evidence of a disturbance. Tibbits was shot while the policemen were searching the park.

PHEE-EW PHEE-EW Wage Pauperism Discussed by Porters' Union President By A. PHILIP RANDOLPH Out of the miserable depths of indescribable pauperism, the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car raising the Pullman porters and maids to a lenging and commanding power. Probably other group of wage earners in American in have sat in the shadows, singing songs of eo Out of the miserable depths of indescribable, economic wage pauperism, the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters is steadily raising the Pullman porters and maids to a high plane of challenging and commanding power. Probably longer than any other group of wage earners in American industry, the porters have sat in the shadows, singing songs of economic sorrow and surrender, distressing unwilling of their way. But happily behind every cloud there is a ray of sunshine. So it is with the porters and maids. While the employee representation plan was resting upon the necks of the porters, men and women, menace and misery, the brotherhood came with a definite industrial program to give succor and solace to the distracted, disheartened, disorganized organization, noteworthy the spirit of organization the porters throughout the country with amazing rapidity. Instinctively, men sued North, East, West and south. The national effort of the nation lay in organization and nothing but organization of, by and for the Pullman porters. Protests Ignored With dramatic intensity, porters related how grievance after grievance, under the employee representation plan, had failed of proper, adequate and fair adjustment, how the district, how the district, how the disregarded the plans of the porters, right or wrong. With much feeling and force they told how the superintendent trampled the porters, unlawfully nipulated the company union, or employee plan, how, when the superintendent said that a porter must go, he had to go regardless of the merits of the porters, or the committee of the plan had no power to stop him, and dared not suggest a policy contrary to the superintendent's, or the grievance committee's plan to do so. They told him to callullan whose conferences were staged as smoke Protests Ignored of indescribable, economic wage Sleeping Car Porters is steadily maids to a high plane of chalier. Probably longer than any American industry, the porters songs of economic sorrow and screens, to divert attention to porters from a bona-fide organization. They were aware of the utter and absolute failure of the welfare workers to achieve the welfare of the so-called welfare workers were really working for the welfare of the company, without regard to the interest of the porters. Of course, this is institutionalized. The porters are paid by the company and take orders from the company. They knew from experience that when a Pullman porter was discharged, a welfare worker was entirely helped to do him any good. He also knew that any passenger could write a letter to the superintendent of the Pullman company and cause any other passenger to be in the service one year or 40. This is not true of the Pullman conductors, engineers or firemen. All other transportation workers there have been in the adjustment of their grievances. Combining these obvious and fragrant injustices with the intolerable low wage of $72.50 a month, with perhaps a minimum of nearly 400 a month, from one to five hours of preparatory time, which is labor unpaid, the possibility of being dead-headed all over the country for months when no tips can be given. On the curs, the requirement of the porter to use his own money to buy polish to shine the passengers' shoes, without the right to request pay, the existence of innards of extra porch (Continued on Page 2) Reveal Conditions EXTRA Close Doors of Bank in Savannah Savannah, Ga., March 9—In a hurriedly called meeting of the directors of the Wage Earners bank it was decided to place the institution in the hands of state bank examiners in a last effort to avert what appeared to be certain failure. General opinion is that the outlook is not very hopeful, and that unless some very effective steps are taken the resources of the company will be swept away. Officials of the band declare that the condition was brought about by the continuous closing of their accounts by depositors during the past five years. This practice caused the cash on hand to rapidly dwindle, it is claimed, and the assets, mostly in real estate and other securities, could not be immediately realized upon. They also say that the failure of five large white banks through the state had a very serious effect upon public sentiment, which was greatly increased by the failure of the Mechanics bank 14 months ago. At the conference held last Thursday after closing hours the condition of the business was completely autumned and discussed, and the final decision was made to be able to only step to take under the circumstances. On account of the illness of the president for some time past, the Blackshaker, assistant to the War O. Blackshaker, assistant to the president, and R. A. Harper, cashier. NATIONAL EDITION Tells Police He Shot in Self-Defense Mrs. Gertrude O'Neil, 31 years old, a roomer of four months in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Haynes, 4628 Champlain Ave., was fatally shot in her room Sunday evening by James C. Jones, another roomer. Jones, before entering Mrs. O'Neil's room, approached that of Haynes, his landlord, and without saying a word, according to the latter, pressed a gun and pointed it at the woman, present to the living room's door. A brief sound S. was heard inside, then a muffled sound. Haynes said. When Jones emerged he brandished the gun and escaped. At the front door he confronted Mrs. Edward Daniels, 4343 Champlain Ave., sister of Mrs. Haynes, who had just arrived on a bus to the gun on her, forcing her from his path. Find Woman Unconscious When the Wabash Ave. police arrived they found Mrs. O'Nell unoccupied through the nose. She died Monday afternoon at Wilson hospital. Jones was arrested an hour later at $350 for assaulting a woman in a refuge with friends. His queer actions there with his revolver, which he said was a mail order gun, caused some one in the house to summon Jones. Jones explained after his arrest that a love affair had developed between him and her, and was jealous. Sunday night, he said, she accused him of being out with another woman and seized his revolver, which she kept in her room. She was between them the weapon discharged. Story Not Believed His story war discredited because, it was pointed out, he drew the reviewer on Haynes before entering the hospital. He then asked woman Jones returned to Mr. and Mrs. Haynes' room and announced, "I have killed Gertrude," according to Mrs. Haynes. He waited Wednesday at Wilsom Hospital Jones was held on a charge of murder. His attorney through his cross-examination of witnesses, laid the foundation for an insanity plea as a defense for Jones the woman to trial in the criminal court. The slain woman had been in Chicago four months, coming here from Meridian Miss. Her husband, Eusebio South, was planning to join her here in a few weeks, it was said. IMPERSONATES FEDERAL AGENT; DEMANDS BRIBE New York, March 9.—Accused of posing as a revenue officer and exhorting $25 from an alleged speak-easy proprietor, Charles Johnson, 24, an electrician, 145 W. 127th St., was held in $25,000 bail to the grand jury on a charge of robbery. Johnson was arrested by a friend of his, Officer Charles E. Locklin. The complaint, Frank Nacecarno, 252 Cypress Ave., who operates the alleged speak-easy at 329 Lenox Ave., testified that the policeman accompanied Johnson to the place, but only had a drink. The policeman was exonerated of any participation in the crime. Nuccarno testified that when Johnson and the policeman, who was off duty, were having a drink, Johnson asked the proprietor if he had any real beer in the cellar. He answered in the affirmative and the two went downstairs. Instead of sampling the beverage, Johnson, it is alleged, drew a gun and declared that he was a revenue officer. "I'll keep my mouth shut if you will give me $25," Johnson is alleged to have said. When they returned upstairs, the proprietor said he gave the man the money. The robbery charge was preferred against Johnson instead of a charge of extortion, because the money was demanded at the point of a revolver. DRINKS IODINE Mrs. Maggie Anderson, 23, 4322 Forrestville Ave. attempted to come into the afternoon by swallowing a quantity of lodine poison. Mrs. Anderson became dependent on domestic troubles, the Wabash Ave. police were PRICE TEN CENTS OUP REV. FLIPPER TO FACE WIFE IN COURTROOM Second Suit Involves New York Woman St. Louis, Mo., March 9. "Stay away from court Tuesday, March 13." So read the warning in an anonymous letter received Wednesday by one of the many witnesses who are expected to appear in the circuit court Tuesday to testify in the sensational divorce suit brought by Mrs. Pearl M. Flipper against her husband, Rev. Carl M. Flipper, pastor of the First A. M. E. church of Kansas City, Kans., and son of Bishop J. S. Phillip of Atlanta, Ga. The church-going public is all agog and some think that a bombshell has been thrown in the Flipper case, because of the threatening letters received by persons who are to give testimony in behalf of Mrs. Flipper when the case goes to trial. "The powers of hell have broken loose. There will be much unmud-slinging, and when it is over you may be the blackest." is the admonition in another letter to one of Mrs. Flipper's witnesses, and G. V. are being paid for their services and have nothing to lose, if you go to court next Tuesday they will be asking to ask you many questions that will embarrass you," the warning explained. It is said that reference to "J. D." it meant the attorneys in the Flipper case, and of the Missouri legislature, who is representing Mrs. Flipper, and George who is prominent local attorney, who has his own Rev. Mr. Flipper to fight his battle. Scheme to Beat Justice According to Mrs. Flipper's attorney each witness who is expected to on behalf of his client has received a notice of evidence and defeat justice, evidence and defeat justice, fear in the minds of those persons who receive the notices. Attorney Davis said the letters will be placed on behalf of the federal authorities for investigation. Mrs. Flipper was emphatically warned to strike from her divorce petition the name of Miss Florence Johnson, teacher in Summer high school, who mentioned as correspondent in the brief. All efforts to deter her in her legal action are nonsense, declared Mrs. Flipper with what appeared a sardonic smile, when seen by the Decembrer respondent. She felt assured that he has been intimidated by the threats of those whom she said sought to persecute her. Instead, continued Mrs. Flipper, they will be in court Tuesday to prove the truth in her case which will be declared solely upon the evidence heard. Another Suit Pops Up Following closely on the heels of the civil action brought against him the Flipper last week was named defendant in a suit for a debt of $1,100, which it is alleged he owes Miss Louise Jackson of 1088 Park Ave. New York city. The Flipper last week was accused of stealing days ago in the circuit court of Wyoming county, the vicinity in which Flipper is now preaching the gospel. The suit backs up the charge Mrs. Flipper made to her attorney, wherein she states that he violated use $1,400 of Miss Jackson's money and later took her with him on an extensive automobile tour. She recover her money Miss Jackson complains that she loaned Rev. Mr. Flipper $1,400 on Oct. 10, 1924, which he agreed to repay on demand. She said he paid her $1,400 in 1926, teaching a balance unpaid, which she is suing for with interest from date of the loan. Rev. Mr. Flipper was transferred from on demand to this district to the Kansas City Kansas church last October. Mrs. Flipper's petition for divorce became public during the same month when the church was commissioned in St. Louis. The ministers who were attending the conference resented the inquisitive charges brought by Mrs. Flipper against their church and unanimously delegated Rev. Mr. Flipper a delegation to the general conference of the A. M. E. church, which convenes in Chicago in May. Since he has been Kansas City church, he is also being sued by Mrs. Flipper for $10,000 for alienating the affections of her husband, has been a visitor at the services in the First church, of which he was a member, and has produced to the congratulation by him. PUBLIC GIVEN INSIDE FACTS ON WAGE ROW Pullman Porters Air Old Grievances (Continued from Page 1) ters who some time get a run and some time don't but who must report anyhow, daily, or be discharged—all of these conditions drove the teacher to leave the schoolhood, as a traveler on a desert seeker water to shake his thief hat. --- Before the Pullman company was able to sense the sigmatic proportions of the railway, the company summing, the union had won over the large majority of the porters and maids, and in May, 1926, and July, 1927, the union sent its porters to the United States mediation board. The company contested the right of the brotherhood to represent the porters, and the cent of the porters had voted for the company union. The board determined that the brotherhood did lawfully represent the porters, and therefore, uused and recommended that the Pullman company arbitrate the dispute with the union. The union also supported the Railway Labor act. The Pullman company replied in fligrant defiance of the board that there was no dispute. Calls for Investigation Company Amazed The company is amused that by firing some of the outstanding porters who were ardent union fighters, the company organized or frightened its porters away from it. Porters who had worked for the company 20 and 40 years before took their discharge and stood stoop to repudiating the union. At this manly and unprecedented conduct the company was thunderstruck by the placing of a few Filipinos and Chinese on the club cars was ridiculed and laughed out of court by the company. In desperation when the "yellow-dog" contract utterly failed to intimidate the men and stop the movement. Now it is reluctantly facing the brotherhood it could not destroy. To this end it must mold and shape a new Pullman policy toward the porter and the brotherhood. Mr. Pennsylvania district of New York has been discarded; most likely his saltcellites will be discarded too. The brotherhood's attacks on him made him a moral liability to the company, and he would go too. The logic of events demands a more humane, civilized, rational, constructive and just policy toward the porter. Even the Pullman company must how to an aroused public united front of porters and maids. Says Brazil. Not U. S. Is Home of Liberty New York, March 2.—Count Decio De Paul Machado, eminent Brazilian banker, now visiting this city on the first leg of the tour around the world, visited the Citizen's Castle-Kit-Carillon hotel, 46th St. and Madison Ave. said, "America retains the statue, but the home of liberty is in Brazil. There in my homeland the people are proud; prejudice is practically nil and society is governed by a code of legal principles." Count Machado further stated that the people of our Race are employed in executive government positions in Sao Paulo alone; that the leading state senator is a member of the Race, and that five members of parliament, two generals and one admiral are of our group. The Brazilian banker was a recent visitor to Chicago. While there he was a guest of Editor Robert S. Abbott of The Chicago Defender. Editor and Mrs. Robert S. Abbott were special guests of the Sky Browns event, which was held on the floor of Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Hamburger, 511 Drevel Blvd. The proposed world's fair was the subject for discussion. The event was sensitive of the city's resources in finance, business, education and culture, and ideas advanced against the argument that such a huge project always requires a lot of hard work in its wake economic disaster and business depression, was that the budget system worked out by experts in the field, was that it was guarded against waste.

Politics Aired in Public Washington, March 9. — Representative Fredrick N. Zihlman, Rep. of Illinois, visited Saturday by Emmett J. Scott, secretary treasurer of Howard university, to have the house district committee approve his bill to transfer the office of the recorder of deeds to the government of the District of Columbia. The secretary expressed opposition to the bill on the ground that the transfer of the office to the district would limit the abilities for employment of our people in the government service. The office of the recorder of deeds, Dr. Scott, expressed opposition to the District of Columbia in which the Race people have "even a half show in anything approaching recognition of the way of government employment." Objects to Rating Dr. Scott particularly finds objectionable provisions in the bill that require the recorder under civil service. He also objects to the section of the bill that requires the recorder to count the office of the recorder of deeds by the auditor for the District of Columbia.

Froe, recorder of deeds, had been criticized on the floor of the house by Representative William Holliday. Rep. of Illinois, for his bid to adopt recommendations of the bureau of efficiency.

Thousands of women have used the Famous Nerane Composed to correct Constitutional Nerane's ill-Modeled Women have written letters of praise for the satisfaction and benefit they received after using this marvelous composition. One California lady writes: "During my gitehold I had my dreams of what married me would be, and my heart was a great appointment and childhood loneliness I went for your Nerane. Outbound, and after taking some will say my entire nature has undercooked me, I'm so so much as I can do with you." My married life is now indeed happiness complete."—Mrs. B. T. A daily in Pennsylvania writes: "I am writing to thank you for what your medicine has had, and you're not on the right side and now have the greatest baby this month, and you never thought I would have any babies.

They are barred. This "shutout" will hold good until the distress signal goes up and then they are expected to the rescue and regret that they have not one life to give for their country. Last summer a young New York college man was asked by his white classmates to go along to a training camp over there, and had endured the torments that went with winning the war. Incidentally, the dark soldier had been awarded a medal of honor but when he applied for admittance he was rejected. As a conciliatory measure, he was informed by the secretary of war that if he could round up enough men of his face, the government would hire him as security unit. In other words, he was recruited. His own "him Crow" army. No doubt, Uncle Sam would throw in "him Crow" uniforms, and a few white foreigners for officers so that there could be "him Crow" among his "step cann" for a regular Navy. As usual, a number of our own people who are always ready to help us, we have started plan what they call their movement. This movement will be bitterly denounced by all right thinking people. Alert Americans will do everything they can to prevent segregation and will persuade everyone else to have nothing to do with it. Our men of ability must be given the same up-to-date standards that other men are trained. They must have the same opportunity to rise to the top, and that, or when the time comes they will be conscripted as stevedores in labor battalions. As the young students return to their mother's letter: "They'll have to come and get me next time." Wilson's battle line must die also.

NORMA TALKS ON SHOPPING The method of shopping is wrong. Franks are being bought by American women because they please the eye, while very little thou art in giveway. They are being used in clothes being out the very best in the wears and leave the observer conscious more of the woman than of her costume. There are exceptions, of course, but I speak of American women as a whole, not of any special class. They are not wearing a coat, clothing; they have excellent taste; their color schemes are harmonious and as a part of life's scenery they are best suited. If they fail to make of their own gown backgrounds for themselves. Instead, almost every woman makes herself a dummy for the vingorous display of her own style. --- The fault. I believe, is that expensive costumes are being worn without the addition of a single, deft, qualifying touch to stamp it indelibly. The designer can make that. That is fatal. The most exclusive creator in the world could do nothing more than design a frock for the individual woman unless she added her own contribution to the ensemble; perhaps a flower, a bit of bicee, or a crown. The designer can make herself attractive; the designer can only be a helpful factor.

Many times you run a technique kind of knowledge with quite technical knowledge of the musicians. The beautiful melodies, garnished with difficult eccentric tikki, will hold grip on the world today, replacing the mushy, discordant jazz music. The Big Head The big head is a disease many of our leaders and musicians are suffering from. They have a little bit of mushy, discordant music greater than they really are. They walk around like strutting peacocks, proud and conjected. They think they can stop them but death. Listen bunch, success is due everyone. When we are born we all measure up alike. When we are grown we can stop what we are going to make out of ourselves. So we should all stay down on earth. We cannot tell when rebellion will just tell when the boss is going to ask us for the two weeks' notice. have never seen it fall yet when you see her, the rule, are not built on solid rock, fall and fall hard. You wake up some morning and wonder what it's all about. You find even your museums and art galleries are not managed of their affairs. They have families to take care of and tire of the jeopardy, big-headness and confusion. If we accomplish something let us be modest about it. The public will give us due credit and will sing our hearts out, thinking you are the one there is always some one else who can take our places, so do not get the big head, thinking you are the one there is always some one else who can go down the world forgets you ever lived and there is where you finish, in dark oblivion.

She was ably and efficiently supported at the piano by Mime Crawford. Mime Crawford has an enviable record as a concert artist and is proclaimed by the music critics as being one of the outstanding singers with very rare talents. Arthur Gibbs Orchestra Arthur Gibbs and his orchestra of entertaining melodians, began their first engagement on Broadway on Feb. 15, at a salary that bespoke the patrons of Arcdia, the $1,000,000 ballroom on Broadway, are thrilled with Arthur Gibbs' delightful syncopation that we point to as the success of Arthur Gibbs' orchestra on Broadway.

Ross' Deluxe orchestra is now playing an indefinite engagement at the Rosemont ballroom, Brooklyn, N. Y. Robert Cloud, the arranger and conductor, is well of the new job for the bunch. Sammy Stewart, who has long worked a band of from 12 to 15 players in the finest hotels and canyons in the city, has been playing at the Willard theater, a small movie house in Chicago, since September. The band has been unable to carry such a large orchestra, decided to install a six-piece band, giving Stewart the six-piece piano in the six-piece combination. But will blow the trumpet, Dave Smallwood will beat the traps, Jance Will hold down the reed, section; Millard Robbins will play the bass and Sammy's violinist, one of the finest in the gang, will draw his artistic bow on the fiddle. The orchestra with Ethel Waters and the Adelphus opera house, Chicago, is credited with being one of the best modern jazz units on the road. Clarence Black and his orchestra are setting the patrons of the Savoy wild with that not jazz music, propelling it all the more with a real dance orchestra that will compare with any in the business. Manager Fagin need not bring outside bands to the Savoy, as more animate music has made up Blackie orchestra when it comes to music. Erskine Tate and his Vendome theater orchestra opens at the Metropolitan theater next Sunday. Clarence Jones and his bunch go to the Vendome. The rumor is allot that Martin Paley, well known cafe man, is to take over one of the popular South African music and plenty of it. If you work for Mr. Paley you will have at least 12 musicians in your band. The job makes us all, when we lose that we lose our prestige and are thrown back with the brother we ignored, that is. If we thought ourselves owned, that is. If we thought ourselves married to the job, so be in a regular fellow; it doesn't hurt us. Charles Cookie and his orchestra are still the big draw at the White City ballroom, Chicago. Freddie Klein, cornetist, is now playing with Tate's orchestra. Raymond Smith, pianist, formerly with Hugh Swift's serenaders, is now Raymond with Hugh The trouble with most of our orchestras today is nonversatility. They have adapted themselves on one side of the other. If they can handle jazz music they fall hard when the legitimate score is placed before them and if they are able to play music players they cannot handle the popular variety music. Of course super-servers sattle orchestras, but they are few and far fewer. If you are now in a jazz band do not the other. If they can handle jazz music they fail if they have the legitimate score is placed before them and if they are real standard music players they can handle the popular variety music. Of course we have supervise sattle orchestras they are few and far between. Bunch. If you are now in a jazz band do not give up the proper study on your in-strumental may be called upon to render real service and to play good music. You cannot go wrong by practicing daily scale work. It keeps the mind alert and the fingers dotted. The orchestra today that is versatile gets the preference of best work and secures the best jobs, and the same applies to musicians who can shoot kinds of music, standard jazz. Jazz Music Jass music seems to hold a firm grip upon the public today, although there are many who like the standard jazz music, but the large hand when played, by generally jazz music is more overwhelmingly accepted, as it appeals to the popular fancy more than the standards. This word jazz, as written in creedata, has yet claimed its creation, and belongs to the slang family of expressions. Rugtime music which swept the country many years ago, has evoked jazz music. Rugtime music carried in its construction sweet melody flows, accompanied by brilliant harmonic embodiments, the theme or melody always defining and the theme or melody always defining and the theme or melody for the orchestra was delightful. Discordant Jazz Down on the leaves of the Sunny South was the real beginning of jazz music. New Orleans can rightfully claim the birth of this sunny city's day's work through the folks would get together and harmonize. They would select some tune the gang was familiar with and each person would blend in his music. They would play instruments and fugues unconsolently. If they were playing instruments rich, natural giures would come forth from the instruments. You would at times play the trumpet, but you could see the trumpeters with jaws poked out and a look of misery on their faces. Today most of our jazz trumpeters carry this hideous expression while playing. This crude style and the world-famous artistic jazz music Popular Jazz The style of jazz playing today requires musiclanship to handle it. There is no faking, every instrument has its part to perform. The expert musician must note down on paper in partitioned effect for the sections of the orchestra. Made the New Way Electrically The Big Head Notad Singer Leaves Arthur Gibbs Orchestra New Stars For Columbia NOTES (Continued on Page 7). THE CHICAGO DEFENDER IN OLD KAYSEE BY CHARLES O'NEAL Kansas City, Mo.—A flickering crimson sign flashes over the entrance to the Lincoln theater this evening. Andrew Bishop is appearing in a play which bears the significant title, "Damaged Goods." The sign appears to have an almost nymphy effect on the audience, the theater by the hundreds, sweeting past the horde of insect-like attendants and fills the drakened auditorium with a tense chatter. Upon me also the flickering sign appears at a lighted stage, waiting to seep in. I persuaded me to join in the throng with the same enthusiasm as the uninitiated. However, there I was sitting in the hot-scented darkness, sitting at a lighted stage, waiting to seep in. I was persuaded that. A performer? Certainly not that. An artist? Yes, it must have been that. For nothing also could have kept me in such suspense. The dripped violet and distracting, sending the illuminated the audience. Bishop gives grace where others give only strength. He is subtle where others are only silent, alert, and a feeling that he to know this—that he was himself unhappy. He is one "that never the twinn shall meet," and he is sweet, courteous and conscientious. The cast of the drama: The doctor, Andrew Elshop; the husband, Lilion Monages; the wife, Ora John-Monages; the Grace Smith; the mother, Edith Pernell; the father, James Rutherford. OUR PROFESSION I address this letter to the public in general. I expect these words to be opposed by the so-called "professors" who add new folks, for it is of them that I speak. We, as a race, can never expect to have clean, intelligent amusements until we have clean, intelligent performers. Our observation I find that 95 percent of our stage folks are ignorant, unmouth and unprincipled. This, no doubt, is because this profession is made up mostly of the dregs of so-called "professors" in the class as a veneered group of humanity; they oppose education and try to ridicule the intelligent. Morals mean nothing to them, for their policy seems to be, "Do what you want to, want you to and let the good time roll." Now, why are the majority of chorus girls regarded as common women? Just because the majority of chorus girls are common women. Because most of the managers hire girls not for their talents, but to add to their conquest of the fair sex, girls are an easy mark and if a prospect opposes his advances, she forfeits her job. If she is a wholly wild immoral girl, she is not for her. If she tries to hob-shelt up and depend on her talents for her position, then she is "too good" for the job and consequently she is not for her. The theatrely speaking, there are many husbands and wives on the stage. This often comes from the men and women doubling up as couples, mostly for convenience and always without benefit of clergy. A license is seldom necessary and half of the chorus girls are married to one or two other persons. Children of such unions are naturally brought up in vice and have no knowledge of anything but a faceless life of parents. Most stage folks, I find, are versed in cursing, drinking and gambling. I am not a stage performer, parties and midnight orgas you are a soob. If you do, you are a nobody. If the girls allow, the men all kinds of liberties the men so outraged are allowed to engage in rating their so-called "breads, junes or skirts". If she doesn't permit familiarities she is called unnatural "dilacy" and "dilacy" folks are harassed and humiliated by the ignorant performer. There are many other deplorable things existing in the "profession" of stage acting. I have noticed here of late in the Defender and Courier that a number of high school and college girls are enlisted to the stage girls is, indeed, encouraging. What need we next are the same kind of management; then, and not until then, we can expect to be by this that all educated people are fit for the stage, for it is true that there are educated prostitutes and immoral crooks as ignorant and acutistic "professional" must admit that ignorant performers cannot compete with the intelligent and well principled, educated performer. Such as the late Florence Mills is a credit to any race. I say three may they resemble the other kind to a fade-out. Let us hope this is the Alpha of the new stage era of clean, intelligent amusement, and the Omega of the degraded faith, called the Hits off to the person or persons who dare to give the Race that which appeals to the mental and not the sensual, and feel down in the impulses by catering to the flotant of the Race. If we want the best amusements on our stage we must give our best to present I am traveling with a well-known musical comedy company, so I speak from experience. I am looking for criticism and am open to the advice of the stage. I pen this letter in behalf of the new performer and I am willing to answer any letter or letters, pro and con, on what I have said, and consider yours. Miss Betty Martin, 2243 St. N.

The song is a good number for singing acts and quartets and a feature number for road shows. Joan Star is featuring the song, "The New Musical Comedy," the new musical comedy now at Daly's 63d St. theater. New York, and she is scoring a big success. The songs which are also featured are Labor Day Parade, Chocolate Bowl, and "The Jazz Was Worn." "Keep Shufflin' Harlem Rose" and "Dusky Love." Although of the dark shade of color, I hear that these dusky damselflies are at the different dances held in Palm Beach and West Palm Beach. Perhaps they are ashamed of their color. The Poincaré boys are enjoying the sunny jungle, the same regardless. Sunny jungle is held in Brooklyn, N.

The Jaxon theater, owned by Dr. Jaxon, the man and chairman of the Republican party of Glenn county, intends to occupy the company to visit his Ra way of thinking, a better location and hospitality to the company couldn't be bettered. The Jaxon theater, by L. Lockson, a Raman and chairman of the Republican party of the state, vitalized the entire company to visit his theater. It's a stone structure with setting city of 500. While you pass the street from the theater is a first-class barber shop owned by C. W. Battle, where the boys are made up of could be the time. The "Bills" are about the most wonderful bunch I've ever met. D. W. Alfred is the exalted Queen Dora The announcement of the death of Queen Dora was a shock to the entire Silas Green show. Truly a wonderful woman and a good woman. She climbed the ladder of success in the show, which she headlined over many white acts, and not only has she entertained thousands in the North, but was a favorite in the Southland, having gained fame while traveling with the Silas Green show and the Original Company. She was one of my best pals. Clean-Up I don't mean cleaning up financially, but Silas Green has managed to keep the past season drowned. To gain a reputation and keep it has proven its value this season. The team needed, every season has been painted by Jack Stringer. A new stage has been built and also reserve seats. But the supervision is no longer ordered and Lonnie Fisher has been called on to put "Hits and Bits" on the shelf and replace it with another name of the new show, but regardless, with Evelyn White, Princess White, the Cycling, Wooden, Beautiful and Hart Booker, Sam Gray, Frank Smedley, Freddie Durra and little me thrown in for good measure, supporting Lonnie Fisher and Ford Wiggen as Silas Green, it shouldn't be bad. --- Tutt Whitney He is a wonderful fellow, an artist and a gentleman. His writings are interesting and timely. His name will live long after he is dead. Tutt, who gave his life after he created the writers and producers of the original Silas Green show. It is true after hardships, loss of time and money and after a storm had practically blown their tent to the ends of the road. He lives in dress for the Silas Green girls, placed the show as a leader of Race shows. Professor Williams died and did not will Whitney, Dudley, Bayman, make it his last week's last week's article.

Collier the perpetuate the name of Prof. Eph Williams as the Ringling Brothers are doing to the Barnum brothers' name, misgiving Eph Williams in the name of Ringling Eph Williams. Although Mr. Collier didn't have to change the name, which I thought a wonderful idea to keep it living for generations, but Collier changed the name of Eph Williams' name was a household word, so has Chas.

TIMELY TOPICS By SALEM TUTT WHITNEY What P "All the world's a stage and men are more bad actors than good ones, argument. What Price Fame "All the world's a stage and men and women merely actors." That there are more bad actors than good ones, serves to clinch, conclusively, William's argument. All of us are actors and not all showmen are in the theatrical business. Baseball players, prizefighters, race horse men, lecturers, tennis players, golf experts, availanders and nearly all who depend on the public for supplying their business are in the full Sunday to up a $30,000 collection upon the other day, which goes to prove that he is one of the most successful showmen of the present season. The theatrical profession makes a strong appeal to the dormant dramatic instinct of the average human. Few persons but who have said to themselves, "I'd like to go on the stage," or after watching a performance, "There is that dramatic talent within us all that might never pass me over on stage, but if it is developed and used in one's business proves a valuable asset.

Each of us has been assigned a part in the drama of life by the great Director of the show. And all the Director asks of us is that we do our very best with the part he has assigned. Now that the summer season is near at hand, once again we are going to ask that the managers provide comfortable quarters for the accommodation of the performers playing their theaters. There can be no possible excuse for not repairing the carpentry back stage so that the actors will not encounter an arctic blast every time they step upon the stage. What excuse can managers offer when season after season the actors find the bad conditions back stage in some theaters not improving. When the actors find the bad conditions back stage in some theaters there is a reasonable excuse that a manager may offer for not having adequate stage room and dressing room accommodations. But there is no excuse for not having those rooms heated or ventilated. There can be no reasonable excuse for not having toliets, drinking water and a wash room back stage. Managers who are delinquent in there duty along these lines are not allowed to work in the human being. And there are some actors who have sufficient intelligence to know when they are mistreated and when a manager is taking advantage of them. Where the dressing rooms are in the basement adjacent to the furnace have some means of ventilation. Excessive heat combined with coal gas is an uncomfortable and unhealthy combination. When an actor walks arm in arm with him to the stage, and pneumonia stalks him from a thousand cracks and crevices. Mable C.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER HUDGINS AND WIFE WRITE TO WHITNEY HUDGINS AND WIFE WRITE TO WHITNEY Paris, France.—Dear Mr. Whitney: Your letter received and I really can t tell you how much I appreciate to hear from you and to know you are up and feeling so much better. I wrote you when I first came to Eu- ronia from you, so I suppose the letter must have gotten lost, as that happens so well, the mail coming back and both well. We always keep up with you in the columns of The Chicago De- velopment, the most interesting pieces of news in the Defender and I try never to miss it. Well, we are just getting over the world we have lost a wonderful prize. I have had wonderful success here but am very anxious to get back home if only for a short white. The show has been great, four weeks and was quite a success, but it is just like all French revues, just gorgeous scenery and costumes, between and each performer has one or two specialties to do, and this music has almost drove me mad, but I am trying my best, as they have had some wonderful offers to have had some wonderful offers to open in vaudeville at home, but as yet have not decided just what I will do, but I think I will come home for next season. I hear a revue is on its way over here and it is advertised all over the person's name on the bills. The band is called Reiser's band from Atlantic City. It is billed as coming direct from thirteen, but no one over here knows the situation concerning it. These French people do not know much of Race talent in a bunch, so I hope they are with all good performers, and that they will act like ladies and gentlemen when they get over here, as you know the first impression is that you are hard on our folks most everywhere. I suppose you read of all that fuss in London is not not wanting to import Race to sit in a bunch. Well, I am not sure if any of our folks do come over I surely wish them success, as it always makes it better for the next follow. You know these French people who say what the American Negro is, and they know nothing about the phrase "Colored," and they really think it is terrible that I should back up with have what it is all about, and that they would much rather see me natural, and believe me, I have to do a mean piece of explaining. It is not that much any harm, but they really don't know. I hear that there are quite a few performers at home doing my act intact, as if it was all their own masterpiece, but it was even announcing it or putting it on the program, and everyone is trying to do it over here, but they have to give me credit as my work is pretty well established here and the people who are trying to imitate, but it is the funniest thing our Race of people never want to give each other credit. Josephine Baker has been doing an impersonation in the Follies Bergere, but she certainly gave me credit as she had my name on the program as big as hers. Well I hope to meet them all when I get home, as I suppose there is nothing like the original offer. It was quite a shock to me to hear of Mr. Snyder leaving the Lincoln theater and I am certainly glad to see the condolence and success of the Alhambra theater, which is the success it can have, as it has meant so much to our Race, and has put so many of our Rue performers to work, which means so much, as the success from the business seems at a standstill from business. It has been reading in the Rue papers. Well, there isn't much news at present. I will write you all about it, I will describe revise, which is supposed to be a face revise, which You ask me to ask hello to Josephine Baker for you, but I am sorry to inform you that I never see her as she is. Although I have been to see her several times since I have been in Paris. When I opened in the show she sent me a beautiful basket and is having wonderful success, and suppose she is too busy, so I don't bother her. You know how our folks are. She is still the talk of Paris and is having wonderful success, and I have a big revue there for the winter, and I hear at a wonderful salary. She has just made a wonderful film, called *The Wonderful Woman*, and she is really wonderful, and she caused a sensation here in Paris. It is a big production picture and runs about two hours and a half, and she is really featured all through it. Eddie Burke, formerly of the Cotton club of New York, has been over here now several months and has had several suites and played all the leading music halls here, and I hear he is to open up in one of the revues here soon. Miss Jillian's new show is now in Monte Carlo working at one of the smartest night clubs there, called the Knickerbocker, and is expected to open in vaudeville in London some time in February. Al Moore and Freddie Washington of the Club Alana, York are also doing time over here. The York are working at the big Casino and have caused quite a sensation with their dancing. They expect to return to the big shows, or maybe go back to London, where they had wonderful success. Well, I suppose this is all the reason the Smith, better known as "Bricktop", is going to open another night club shortly here in Paris, where she has had wonderful success for the tour. She has just returned from Germany. Well, I suppose I will close now. I guess you are tired of reading this book, but I don't mind. I will well and ask if you will kindly send her two of your books, "Mellow Mussings," at once. She will send you an email with a link to her website. Will you please answer very soon, as we sure like to hear from you, and we both hope you are enjoying the book. We will send you cards to all, and we wish you a happy and prosperous New Year. Was very sorry to hear of Irvin C. Miller's loss, and I will send you a letter to your brother. Hoping we will see you soon, as I may be home in May, looking to hear from you, we remain alight. And Mildred Hudgins, cure American Express company, Paris, France. AT HOWARD THEATER Washington, D.

She says the company has beautiful apartments on the coast, after which she will head directly cast, but some of the performers have beautiful apartments in the city. It is plentiful out that way. Martin has gained distinction as one of the best recording artists in the camera house in most every theater in the country.

This lad has a distilling car, the ball in the hoop from almost any angle of the floor. He will be watched closely by Harrison. Carey will watch the ball from behind while Lawson Miller, a veteran from last season, will jump center. Harper and Gay will be stationed at fall.

Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY BRUINS TOY WITH SAVOY FIVE,29-25 BRUINS TOY WITH SAVOY FIVE,29-25 Pile Up 11 to 1 Count, Then Let Up The Chicago Bruins, crack professional basket tossers, invaded the South side Monday night and gave fans a wonderful celebration of how well the team had trimmed the Savoy big five, 29 to 25, on the Savoy court. The game proved interesting and finished numerous thrills for the two national leaders. The national leaders treated the Savoy team like a toy and allowed them to make such a splendid showing that already a return contest has begun. The game was little more than a workout for the Bruins, who scored 11 points before the South sliders could score a basket. Then Dr. Hainan basketball teams, called Manager Honey Russell and told him to slow down, that "they weren't playing for the city championship." That meant "coast" through the remainder of the game, just keeping enough points ahead to win and protect the North side bets, who made a "grand bump" on the outcome of the game. The Bruins would win—which they did. Once when the Savoy team crept up too close Halass ordered "full steam ahead," and the fans were then treated to some clever, accurate shooting and passing, a brand of bas-ketball that the Bruins displayed in the opening part of the game, until Halass put a halter on his "war horses." When the Bruins weren't playing basketball they were cleverly tossing the pumpkin from one end of the floor to the other. The game started in a rush, with Slim Schoun, the lanky center, who stands seven feet or more in height, dropping in the first basket. Wickhorst followed a second later. Then the North siders sank five ringers and a free throw in succession before letting up. With the score 11 to 1 against them, the Savoy's led by Rock Anderson and Joe Lillard started a rally that brought them within striking distances at the half-ended. The visitors were in front, 18 to 12. Once they were within two points of tying the knot, but the Russell-Schoun-Wickhorst combination began doing its stuff and were on the long end of a 29 to 25 score when the final gun baked. Five minutes before the close of Friday, William Hitchcock Laue Teach and guard for the Savoyes, and Johnny Beckman, for forward for the visitors, treated fans to a show of skill, and off in the midst of the game, but the bout was halted after Beckman's eye was blacked and Watson's lip cut. The latter was suspended for his part in the game. **Bruns (29)** F. P. SAVoy (25) Beckman F. P.

The game was played before an auditorium where it was a see-saw affair throughout, with neither team having more than a two-point advantage at any stage of the game. The contest was staged by local promoters and was the outcome of a controversy over the mythical title of "world's Colored champions." The Quaker City quintet have played since Jan. 2, winning 30 and losing 10, and have frequently been mentioned as champions.

Virgil Bluelt was used as an assistant coach in fashion and worked in harmony with the white official. We believe we have won a moral victory when the Savoy team met at the Savoy saw fit to use Bluelt, who graduated from Lane Technical high school with a dozen honors, to crack, basketball, baseball and football. There wasn't any riot Monday night. There shouldn't have been, despite the fact that trouble has been predicted if Colored officials were in charge. We believe we knew our onions when we made the stand that we had capable men who could handle games. We have never been against one of our teammates. Our team is playing there, but we have said we didn't see why two whites had to be used when ten of our boys were in action. That showed that the Savoy management is fair and has given one a trial. That Bluetuck "knew his stuff" is without questioning. We congratulate whoever is powerful and had guys enough to make the move. That Bluetuck will be called on again to work. SATURDAY night Phillips lightweight enters the final of the city championship. He will be either crowned for champs or runners-up and it will take just one game of basketball to decide.

Just say to them if you must say something, "Boys, we are sure you will win back to you." Leave the Race out of it. THE Wabash Ave. Y, M. C. A. has won the city Y. M. C. A. championship.

THE Chicago Tribune is having an amateur boxing tournament this week.

Of course, it is hoped that Columbus business men will have a chance to meet the people who try to equal what Cleveland has offer. However, Cleveland has the edge, the folks there have formed a committee and have gone to work. It is only way to get anything accomplished. --- --- --- --- Fort Valley High Quintet Cops Georgia State Honors PACKS A WALLOP 1 HONEYBOY CONBOY St. Paul fighters, sparring partner of My Sullivan.

Y., March 4.—Jack McVey, dusky son of Harlem, proved convincingly Friday night why he is regarded as the class of the middle-weight division and leading contender for the crown now perched upon the brow of Mickey Walker. Before a fair-sized crowd at the Broadway auditorium McVey pounded out an impressive and decisive victory over Lou Scozza in the Crescent Sporting club's 10-round headline bout, and at the finish was given the official verdict. McVey, a superb physical specimen, long, supple muscles, fired a gun attack at Scozza's body from start to finish, mixed in long hooks to the head, outpunched and out-smarted Lou and won by the comfortable margin of seven rounds to one, two being given. Scozza fought a skillful fight and courageous efforts to throw the Race man off form with counter of Sensors and too many guns and too much skill. Scozza Threatens Only once did Scozza really threaten. That was in the eighth round, when four slashing right-handers cooring. But McVey showed he has the stuff by bracing and cutting loose with a flurry of drives which smothered Scozza's attack and sent the screed 'Scozza's hitter' to the cups. Thus Scozza's single big try of the light was crushed while at its height it marked the collapse of Scozza's hopes for victory, and McVey, after preening his condition they tried the punch recently in the 10th and finished with lying colors. Scozza and McVey looked to be in splendid physical condition in the weight were: Scozza, 160; McVey, 154½. McVey took the lead at once. Holding his hands high, close his lips to the cups, McVey's body like pistons. McVey jubbed lightly to the face and chased Lou along the LUCKY LOADSTONE Be lucky.

In an exchange Scozza popped a couple of lefts into McVey's face the second but Jack kept tashing out the second and Jack kept out smarting and outmaneuvering his man and winning handily. Scozza Puzzled From the second to the sixth McVey won about as he pleased. Scozza perplexed and puzzled at his aggressive visitor, who kept forcing and moving in, taking the play out of the hands of the foe. In the fifth Scozza peeled McVey away and McVey came back and punched Lou groggy. Fierce smashes to the body and heavy blows to the head had Scozza wubbly and in a bad way. At distress, his left eye swollen and inflamed and his body beaten an angry crimson. McVey slowed down in the sixth and seventh, and although McVey minded finish, he carried a rousy eighth which had the fans howling. The ninth was even, and McVey swept through the 10th to carry the ball. It was a good fight, with McVey living up to all expectations. Salisbury, N. C., March 3—Tuesday evening Coach R. E.

A., Chicago) The young athlete's pitfalls start with the first appearance of his name and picture in print, notifying the world that he was the star performer in some athletic event. All the eyes of the athletic world that see his name and record are the organization that he represents, his family, his buddies, the fans all set him up as a star. The coach, the man who has discovered this star, admires the boy and with his admiration goes a keen eye for the future, for the coach knows that the boy could not star by his lone self. In team play there are always two or more persons responsible for the success of the star. In team competition, such as boxing, track and field events, etc., there is some one on the side lines who knows the athlete like the racing auto mechanic knows the racing automobile. Without the help of the teammates or the star's chances for success are 10 to 1 against him. These promoters seldom e the professional athletic wom commonly know it. Their standards of athletic low for the professional as for the amateur. It is this type of athlete carrying our high school wom of our young wom It is this group of men th ing to reach into our Y. playgrounds, parks and ch ile programs and mix the with the most corrupt prac college athletes are being by these men. Our universities and col being overrun with the ath who will break all the rul m of our universities. Some of our universities, As and churches are en the breaking down of high of amateur sports by first men who do not stand for ideals take charge of their The admiration of the crowd is too great for him, with his name and picture in the paper as a star and in the game as a player, as is the star athlete is soon led to believe that he is better than he really is. This star forgets that the members of his team made it possible for him to carry a bat, assisting the him with what was in position to score or that they cleared the way and blocked an opponent, making it possible for him to star. This boy offenses forget that the coach has taught him how and tells him when to attack his opponents in order to win. Most of the admirers of the star forget that there is a second party to the game, the game just as hard as the athlete and that this man's instructions as to how to play against an opponent are responsible for the star's success. This boy finds his way into high school and under a good instructor who is encouraging young man and a star athlete. Some time during his senior year he is persuaded to go to college and play on the college team with workmates. While in college these promises carry but one condition—that he make the athletic team. It is at this point in the lives of some students that they have to make a failure. They place too big a price on their ability and stay out of college, waiting for some one to make them an offer to go to college. These young men will sacrifice their future, through lack of a college education, because they were not given the offer they thought they were given. They are the many others who accept the offer to go to college, succeed on the athletic team and drop out because the amount of money they get will not be increased or their social program calls for more money. Getting or the person who made the offer does not make good. The boy who did not go to college gets with the boys who drop out or are about to drop and form an outside team and begin to play for college. The public does not know about these fellows because they usually play under an assumed name. This is why the amateur rule and gets away with it. These clubs become bolder with their breaking of the amateur rules and standards as their success in competitions covers them. They then try to parade under the name of semiparade. (There is no such animal! You are either a professional or an amateur.) It is out of this group of men that we get the largest number of our so-called promoters of athletic clubs and semipro athletic programs by men who have had such experiences and have lost the high principles and standards upon which athletes have developed are causing them to be so social as well as athletic world. AM. GIANTS TO OPEN SEASON EASTER SUNDAY Duffy Florals Pry Off Baseball Lid The American Giants, recognized champions, winners of the playoff for the Negro National league title, guarded the team and then winners over Atlantic City, will open the first season in cage on Easter Sunday afternoon, April 5, against the Duffy Florals, who will lead Lakers-infiltly in the box. 1 Dave Marlarcher, who will gain a pilot the Giants for 10 years, will put his men through strenuous workouts twice a day on the South side lot as soon as the weather warms. From present indications the team will be practically the same as that which won the world series. A few trades have been talked of, but none put DeMoss, manager of the Detroit Stars, is in town angling for some sort of a deal that will take Jelly Gardner to Detroit in place of one or two players. He will be able, realizing the hitting power of the American Giant player who went East with the Lincoln Giants for the balance of 1927, will in all probability hang onto Gardner, as he is great drawing card on the South side. Trimble announces that he is after another championship and regardless of Kansas City Monarchs going South to train that his club will be on top at the end of the first half of the season, and regardless of the time and there will be no playoff for the right to meet the East. Swett, outfielder and infielder, has been around Chicago all winter and is in trim, as Swett plays basketball. Harney and a few other players have been in the league. Larry Brown, Miller, Foster and Powell were all in the Cuban winter league. Foster is in the South now. Marlarcher has been busy selling insurance and is far enough ahead of baseball duties. He will continue to hold down the third base job and run the team. City Players Traded Detroit to Kansas City Monarchs will go to the Detroit Stars for Turkey Starnes, the hard-hitting center fielder of the team, and the new owners in Detroit is More Walker, United States custom officer.

Some of our universities, Y. M. C. A. as and churches are encouraging the breaking down of high standards in men who do not stand for the high ideals tale charge of their athletic teams; second, by having the so-called semipro tramp athlete represent the organization, break the rules and stand upon which athletics is founded. Too little attention has been given to the question of an amateur athlete by our leaders in the college, the university, or the country. As of the country. And much less attention has been given to the conduct and life of the young men on these teams when they are on a tramp. One of these athletic clubs, which oftimes consists of six or 10 men, will make a contract with a college or Y. M. C. A. team from some other town for a game, stating that they will be the team so much money for the trim. The team upon arriving in the town will find that this team is a so-called semipro, having men on board, and now call themselves amateurs. If the leader of the visiting team investigates he will learn further that the team is depending upon the negotiation and now calls on the expenses. The visiting team is expected to keep some so-called social engagements which are supposed to be a source of entertainment, but in they are advertisements for the game. Oftimes the place provided for the men to stop are not just what they should be. If the leader of the team tries to back down from any of these conditions he finds them he is told that he must go through with his contract on these will be no money coming and this team back home the best he can. The results are that the team goes through, the boys have a big time, the game is played and the boys become professionals, but nothing is ever said about it until some time later. The team makes some other anateur team and he is told that he cannot compete because he has technically become a professional. His first challenge to you is for you to prove that everybody is doing it and he has done no harm. The next is that no one knows him so you can let him go through as an amateur and that he played with such and such a university, college so why should you? The young man by this time has learned to live and tell a lie and think nothing of being dishonorable. We our universities, colleges, Y.M.C.A. and churches going to stand idly by the children of women to continue in developing a complete disregard for right and the high standards through athletic competition? Athletics affords our institutions the greatest opportunity for molding the characters and lives of the young people. If our molding is to be of the type that causes young men and boys to break down the high moral, religious standards then somewhere some one is falling in his duty to the growing generation. SPORTS CKOUT When Portland ts Solid Right to eh's Jaw in Fifth Bout Ends When Portland Boy Shoots Solid Right to Auerbach's Jaw in Fifth Portland, Orc., March 2 - George Dixon kept his promise with fight fans of Portland at the armory arena Tuesday night and disposed of Herman Auerbach by the knockout route in the fifth canto of their scheduled 10-round bout. The fight headlined the regular weekly Portland card. Dixon, who appeared in perfect condition, better than I have seen him at any other time since his first appearance here in a preliminary bout several years ago, took an early advantage throughout the four and a half rounds. The knockout came shortly after half time in the fifth round, after Dixon had smothered Auerbach in the first round to the head. The knockout blow was a stiff right to the jaw. Auerbach was completely out and had to be carried to his corner, where his second minutes before he was received. / Dixon took the first round easily. He was sending in a wicked left to the face continually and was counted on to face and face. He did some beautiful blocking and staved off some vicious left and rights to the body by catching the punches with his elbows. He was also hard hit with some tamed considerably before they lit their mark. Dixon took the second round just as badly but changed his tactics somewhat and rights to the body. He was still sending in left jabs to the head. In this round it looked bad for Auerbach. Lake boy slipped over two hard blows. Auerbach returned with a series of one wide left and two solid rights to the face and came out on top of a vicious exchange by tapping Auerbach none of his rights and lefts to the head and face. Dixon removed the last barrier to a knockout at the opening of the fifth round when he sent in two stiff lefts to the nose, two right crosses to the face and a vicious right uppercut to the jaw. Auerbach weaved around and sent in light left jabs to the face and an occasional right to the body, but Dixon seemed to disregard these blows altogether and bent his efforts on a one-two play for the jaw. A left to the head unbalanced the somewhat badly beaten and tired Auerbach and Dixon followed with a right and left to either side of the head.

"There is a much finer and higher standard of ethics today throughout the civilized world. Slavage has been outlawed and it is unlawful to deal with slavers, and the slavess has moved forward and upward, and the same applies to Race and interracial relations.

Penniman, provost, University of Pennsylvania, held that people were no better nor worse than they have been in the past, while Dr. George H. Weiss, superintendent Chester public schools, believed that mankind is improving, especially in education, and that the multiplied contacts of all sorts with our fellow-men make us more conscious of their weal or woe, and deepen our feeling of a common responsibility for what is well or ill anywhere. Perhaps the man who is ill now is seen in the nearly complete abolition of human slavery and in the treatment of women and children." Dr. James E.
