Dixie's "Lily - Whites" Start Trouble
Washington, D. C., March 30.
—A fight to the finish between "lily whites" and Race Republicans was indicated by Perry W. Howard. Republican national committeeman for Mississippi, upon his return here from Jackson, Miss., last Monday.
Mr. Howard indicates that a coalition of renegade Democrats and lily white Republicans are making concerted effort to eliminate Race Republicans from party councils.
This movement, as he views it, is not confined to the state of Georgia and Mississippi, but comprises the whole South. It is being aided and abetted, he thinks, by a class of northern Republicans who believe the Race should remain a follower in the ranks of the Republican party.
Would Eliminate Race
The question of supporting candidates for the Republican nomination is inconsequential at this time, Mr. Howard has decided. He believes that stubborn resistance should be made to the efforts of the lily whites to nominate the councils of the Republican party.
"The present concerted lily white movement," Mr. Howard said, "is the most suspicious and imminible movement of its kind ever attempted by those who feel that the race should not be permitted to exercise its political power armored and to participate in the councils of the Republican party.
"It is not confined to any two or three southern states, but embraces the whole South and seems to have the approval of a few northerners high in the councils of the Republican party. In fact, it is a coalition of white Republicans, who pretend that they want two militant political parties in the South as a campground to gain control of federal patronage.
"Efforts have been made to browbeat, intimidate and even buy me to lay down as the party leader in my state. I have stood steadfast and carried the resilient Republican organization into suit to the supreme court of my state, where I am confident we will win."
To Meet at Jackson
In Jackson, Miss., last Saturday the Republican state committee met and issued a call for a state convention to be held there on April 18 for the purpose of selecting Celegates to the Republican national convention in Kansas City, Mo., June 12. This is the first time the state convention. The first call was for convention to have been held on March 14. George W. Sheldon, former governor of Nebraska, and ten other white whites obtained an injunction from Chancellor T. Price Dale at Hattiesburg, Miss., on the ground that the call did not conform surely with the Mississippi primacy law. The Hattiesburg court took an appeal to the state supreme court. Last Saturday the question of advancing the appeal for an immediate hearing was argued in the supreme court. Monday the court decided to hear arguments in the case on April 28. Incidentally the leading counsel the Howard organization is J. Morrow, the supreme court and now law partner of W. Calvin Wells, chairman of the Democratic state committee. Judge Stevens contends that Chancellor Dale fired in granting the injunction. He declares that the court had no jurisdiction under the law, the things complained of being party af-
Sets Bad Precedent
"If 11 white men can enjoy the Republican party," says Judge Stevens, "then 11 Negroes can enjoy the whole Democratic party, under the law." The injunction, he states, sets up a very dangerous precedent for the South. The Howard organization is recognized by Chairman William M. Butler of the Republican national committee as the only regular Republican party in Mississippi. Mr. Howard has a letter from Chairman Butler to that secretary. Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover, who is a leading candidate for the Republican nomination, seems to be playing politics with both the Howard organization and the lily white group. The lily whites are said to be spending money in Mississippi freely.
Leaves Estate to White Woman for Kindness
Spartanburg, S. C., March 30.—An estate consisting of personal property and a house and lot valued at several thousand dollars. Saturday morning, the estate was Blackwood (white), in accordance with the will of Mrs. Mamie Thompson, who died here recently. A brother of Mrs. Thompson was given $200. She stipulated that after funeral expenses had been paid from the estate, the estate would be in a "token of her care and kindness" so me during my life and illness."
THIS PAPER CONSISTS OF
TWO PARTS - PART ONE
PETER H. BURGESS
Former secretary of the Detroit Stars baseball club, who confessed to detectives his part in the $10,000 robbery at the home of William Mosley, well known Detroit sportsman. Derrick named his former employer, Steve Pierce, as his partner in the crime.
Believe Boy Was Slain in County Jail
Believing that her son, Clement Arnett, 18 years old, who died last Sunday in the county jail, was the victim of foul play, Mrs. Emma Flot, 3535 Wentworth Ave., mother of the youth, is seeking proof to verify her suspicions.
Mrs. Flot received word from her son in a letter that he was ill March 14. She went to see him the next day, but was denied the privilege by the jail authorities, she said, and was told to stay home. March 17. When she returned on that day the jail physician, Dr. McNamura, told her, she said, that no one could see her son. Then Sunday she received news of his death.
**Brusures on Body**
The body was taken to a North side morgue at 716 N. State St., where it was enbalmed without notifying the relatives of the dead youth. They had the body moved to Mrs. Johnson's morgue, 3311 State St., and examined there by Dr. George H. Copla, 3658 Wentworth Ave. The physician found a bruised spot on the ear of aunten according to the report of lobar pneumonia. His relatives don't believe he died from the disease. Their suspicions were dismissed. The mate of the jail, the writer of which stated that Arnett was either poisoned or slugged to death.
Arnett and William Grimes, address unknown, were arrested March 4 at 3615 State St. by a detective bureau squad on robbery charges. A taxidermy driver partially identified them as the two who had held him up a short time before at about 3 o'clock on the morning of March 4. They were arrested by Mrs. Alma Arnett, 20 years old, mother of his little girl, Gwendolyn, age 3. A request by Mrs. Arnett and her husband's mother for a post-mortem examination of Arnett's body was refused by the coroner, they said.
CAR CLEANERS
HELD FOR $27,000
MAIL ROBBERY
Danville, Va. . March 30.—Four car cleaners, employees of the Southern railway, were arrested early Thursday morning by Danville police on charges of stealing a mall pouch containing approximately $2,000 from the Christmas tree. Detectives refused to divulge information leading to the arrest on the ground that premature publicity might interfere with their operations, but admitted they had received affidavits said to involve confessions. It is also said that $3,500 in money had been dug up in the yard of Mrs. Vaden, who is detained as a witness.
United States Commissioner Champ Burksdale arrived at the postoffice early last Thursday and police sprang the trap, apparently well planned. The arrested parties are Roland Everett, Dock Miller, Eulis Holland and Robert W. was said to have contained a money shipment from the federal reserve bank of Richmond.

Fisk U Given McClellan INDICT MIAMI POLICE CHIEF AND SIX COPS FOR MURDER
Miami, Fla., March 30.—Chief of Police H. Leslie Quigg and six of his subordinates are in the county stockade without bail, charged with first degree murder of H. Kier, bellboy at the El Commordo hotel, who was brutally slain here two and a half years ago.
The grand jury, composed of former Northerners and local businessmen, in returning the indictment of the police chief last Friday, charged the entire police force with "brutal violence" and produced in law enforcement affairs through Miami. The jury, in announcing that it will reconvene April 10, indicated that other sensational charges would develop which "will shock the whole conscience," but for which indictment, then returned because of "our inability to fix individual responsibility."
Kill Prisoner In Jail
The police chief, who has held the position for the past seven years, was suspended immediately after being taken into custody. No testimony was taken and he did not enter a plea. Detective R. L. Wood was indicted on a murder charge along with being taken to the court to be added to the indicted police colony at the county which already consisted of Detective Leutnant M. A. Tibbils. Detectives John Clundel and Tom Maxworth all charged with the murder of Kier Patrolman Nelson Ward and R. L. Glisson, charged with the murder of John Mabry, a prisoner, have been charged with a week. The circumstances of Mabry's death have not been divulged. Detective Wood is said to have shot Victor W. Parnell, a white carpenter, to death in November, 1925. The responsibility for the death of a face prisoner in the city jail has not been placed by the grand jury. The police officer himself in jail, but it is believed he did not take his own life but came to death as a result of police cruelty.
Citizens Buy Firearms
The grand jury was hopeful when its investigation of police affairs started, the report said, that such practices were unusual and not sponsored by anyone in authority. "But, to our amazement," it went on, "it developed beyond all doubt that they have themselves led the assaults and become the chief executioners." The first official act of Guy C. Reeve, head of the detective bureau, who was made acting chief of police, was placed in charge of the Department of police patrols in the Race districts, where resentment against the police department is running high. Unprecedented sale of firearms to members of the Race has been reported all over the city in the last two weeks. Reeve declared. It is also clear that the Race districts have formally reported serious acts of violence with frequent displays of pistols and a generally arrogant attitude toward policemen.
Denies Chief Liberty
A bitter court battle was waged here Monday when attorneys for the suspended chief of police, after failing to secure his release on habeus corpus proceedings, attempted to take the chief's counsel for the grand jury put E.W. Pierce, former city detective on the stand. He charged that Quigg had ordered an assault on the bellyboy for whose murder the chief is now in custody. He argued that Quigg had ordered him, with Detective Buck Haddock, the officer who arrested Kier after he had been accused of insulting a woman, to take the prisoner to a lonely spot and "beat hell out of him." Pierce testified he hegged off, saying he wished

Abandoned Baby Found in Hallway of Home
New York, March 30. The wailing cry of a child attracted the attention of Polleeman Kennedy of the Simpson St. station as he was passing the entrance to 1559 South Blvd. In the hallway he came upon a boy, about a year and a half old, crouched in a corner and crying.
The child was dressed in a blue chinchilla, overcoat, brown leggings, black shoe, and a blue cap. Inquiries and investigations in the neighborhood failed to reveal any clue which might lead to the identity of the boy.
MEMPHIS RESENTS LIBEL ON CHARACTER OF'BOB CHURCH
Memphis, Tenn., March 30. — The Memphis Commercial Appeal and the Evening Appeal, opposition papers to the present city administration, are out to get the scalp of our leader, R. R. Church. For the past week he has been in blazing headlines on the front page, as well as the editorial page, all because of the recent appointment of E. V. Sheely as acting postmaster here. G. Tom Taylor, who was appointed acting postmaster on Church's endorsement, and who was recently rejected by the Senate, says "he lost his job because he refused to give Church $1,000 out of his salary."
Lindsay H. Phillips, United States district attorney, in an affidavit made public here Monday, contradicted Taylor's statement. Phillips said that Tom Taylor told him in Church's presence that the latter had never made any demands on him for money. This affidavit came as a bombshell to the forces seeking to discredit Church.
George H. Poole, a would-be acting postmaster, says "he didn't get the job because he would not agree to give Church $2,800 that he claims Church said he spent in removing Seches, former postmaster, and would not agree to have Colored special delivery carriers, and Colored clerks in the Memphis office."

Church characterized the statements of Taylor and Poole as "malicious and false" and stated further that there was not a person in Tennessee who did not know why Tom Taylor lost his job, and that George Poole was not considered because he had taken the examination and could not make the eligible grade; that the postoffice department did not appear on the postmaster and had taken the examination and failed."

Estate University Wins Title to Big Sum
St. Louis, Mo., March 30. Relatives will not share in the $100,000 estate of Dr. John W. McClellan, eminent surgeon, who died here Dec. 17, as a result of the acceptance for probate by Probate Judge Holtcamp, Saturday, of a carbon copy of his will which had been in the possession of the doctor's attorney, Robert N. Owens. Fisk university, Nashville, Teu- where Dr. McClellan was educated, will receive his $100,000 estate. The original will has disappeared. If the copy had not been admitted, the estate would have been divided, under the law, among five brothers a sister and two nieces. The doctor's ingen an immudate but fruitless search for the will he had drawn for the doctor following his death.
Court Accepts Copy
Not finding McClellan's will at two banks with which he did business, Attorney Owens got a court order to open the safe at the Invesco Office, 2014 Pine St. The will could not be found. In compliance with the court order, Owens and J. Roger Inge, a real estate dealer, were placed in charge of the doctor's estate. Since the original will cannot be found, the carbon copy, which Owens drew on March 16 last, was accepted by Justice Hunter. Two months ago Dr. Oral Nathanad and Roy McClellan, brothers of the deceased surgeon, petitioned the court to appoint Dr. Oral McClellan
the administrator of their brother's estate and that Owens and Inge be removed. During the court trial, evidence showed that a few moments after Dr. McClellan's dead body was reinterred, he was ridden to the court, Dr. Oral McClellan, riffed and ransacked his clothing and his desk, carrying from the premises his bank books and other personal property found at the residence. Because of such unwarranted and illegal conduct on the part of Dr. Oral McClellan, rendered uncompetent by the administration, the estate was ceased brother, declared judge Holt-camp, when he rendered his decision.
Relatives Disqualified
The court held that the brother, Roy, of Chicago, was ineligible to serve as administrator because he was a non-resident, and that the other brother, Nathaniel of Manchester, Mo., was disqualified, as it was shown he could neither read nor write.
Attorney Homer G. Phillips represented Owens and Inge in their fight to be retained executors of the estate involved.
The will leaves $1 each to the relatives mentioned, and makes Fisk university residuary legatee. Dr. McClellan was a bachelor. He was 57 years old.
Birmingham, Ala., March 30—Dr. C. C. Hawkins was burned to death here Sunday when his automobile crashed into a loaded furnace hotpot when it crossed 42th St. at 25th Ave. N., before he could escape from the molten slag that poured over his body. The physician was trapped in the molten slag and reached him. Fire companies from east and north Birmingham flooded the seething mass with water. Olee Green, an eye witness to the accident, stated Dr. Hawkins' machine skidded into the train. The train moved west, shoved down and then crashed into the train. The physician driving south on 24th St. Green said, attempted to avoid colliding with the train by turning west and running parallel to the tracks. The car skidded and carved sideways into the second crossing. The inputs were cleared the crossing from the tracks by the impact and the hatch on the hotpot released. Hawkins was thrown clear of the car. Only a small portion of the molten metal spilled on the ground where Hawkins unfortunately landed. The inputs were destroyed in cooling, the slug crushed out the trucks of the pot, making it almost impossible to pull it loose.
Mississippi River Hero Receives Late Gift
Memphis, Tennessee, March 30.—A long dollar bill, dilled anonymously from Philadelphia. Pa., was received by former Mayor Rowlett, Paine Saturday as a gift to Tom Lee, boatman, who in 1925 rescued 30 persons when the steamboat "Norman" sank in the Mississippi river with a loss of 22 lives. After his heroic rescue, Lee received contributions totaling $40,000 as a reward. He is now employed as a Memphis street cleaner.

Pierce and Derrick in Safeblowing Plot
Detroit, Mich., March 30. "Steve" Pierce, former owner of the Detroit Stars Baseball club, and Leo Derrick, former secretary of the club, are held under $20,000 bonds each in the Wayne county jail charged with participating in a $10,000 robbery at the home of William Mosley, 1809 Illinois St. Mosley, it is claimed, was part owner of the Detroit Stars, but owing to the poor showing of the club, had severed his connections in order to open a policy wheel. Although their business relations had ceased, the three were good friends and knew each other's intimate affairs. In this way, Derrick learned the contents of the safe in the Mile Home, whose information was on Pierce, who was residing in Flint, Mich. Pierce and Derrick then conspired to rob the safe on a night when the Mosley would be absent from home.
Safe Blowers Called
The conspirators were not adept at blinding, so they took in as confederates Harry Ward, 654 Garfield St., and two crack Italian safe blowers. On Sunday night Mr. Macleod, Derrick Ward, Italian, loaded with the necessary explosives and a sack of mud, forced an entrance into the Mosley residence. However, on entering the place they found that the safe was small enough to carry so they carted it away to a secluded spot and blew it open, extracting it in cash and $5,000 in jewelry.
After perpetrating the robbery, the Italianes went back to the conspirators and explained the safe contained only $2,000 in cash and $2,000 in jewelry. Pierce and Derrick, however, held their ground, explaining that they would not be double-crossed "because the Italianes finally admitted the full amount of the robbery, claiming that they were only having a little joke. The spoils were then split five ways.
Police Lack Interest
The Mosleys on returning home from a chop suey restaurant were astonished to find that the safe had disappeared and immediately called in the police. Officers from the Hunt St. station answered the call, but seemingly treated the incident as a "cock and bull" story. A few days later Mosley complained of lack of security. Sergeant William Beck and William Buller were assigned to the case.
On last Thursday, Sergeants Beck and Fuller raided the Michigan policy wheel, taking into custody Herbert Eulnberg, 1031 E. Forest Ave.; J. Morehead, 2122 St. Antoine St., and Leo Derrick, 839 E. Adams Ave. Derrick was grilled for 24 hours by the detectives and finally broke down, admitting his part in the robbery and implicating "steve" Pierce. Edinburgh and Manchester were later reunited.
Breaks Down
on the information obtained, the officers arrested Pierce and subjected him to a merciless grilling. He broke down and confessed, implicating Harry Ward and the two Italians. Pierce and Derrick then led Serrante's men to the hiding places and turned over to them $1,100 in cash and $2,000 in diamonds. Ward's home was then ransacked and a finally cut diamond valued at $2,000 was found concealed in the basement. According to the officers, most of the cash on the immediate needs of his children. He also purchased several suits of clothes for himself.
Early Saturday morning, the two Italians were apprehended and are being held under $20,000 bonds each in the Wayne county jail, charged in the night and robbed armed.
It is thought that the detectives are seeking further information which will lead to the arrest and conviction of a prominent Detroit physician. Pierce, it is alleged, made a confidante of the physician while treating her or minor allure. The door then collapsed, blowers, who were friends of a woman that he knew in North Detroit. Ward is still at large.

The honor system is used at the penitentiary and the escape of Flannagan was not noticed for so long that it is thought that for of his friends, a man an automobile on the Richmond-Washington highway, which runs near the prison.

GIVES VIEW ON CHICAGO WORLD'S FAIR
Reader Believes Site Is Too Small
What promises to be the greatest celebration ever attempted in the entire world will be the world's fair, to be staged in Chicago in 1903. Already preparations are being made for the housing of millions, who will come from every section of the country. The coming fair is being discussed by men and women from all walks of life. The following article, which gives one reader's view on the world's fair:
THE SCOPE OF THE WORLD'S FAIR
Chicago-With all due respect for the distinguished gentlemen and notable business executives who have been charged with responsibility for creating a new world's fair at Chicago, they have suggested that have yet appeared embodying ideas and plans for that fair, it will be a "piker" thing.
A site containing 800 acres! Wherein does that amount to anything worthy? It is not greatly larger than the 10,000 acres of 35 years ago in a city of less than 1,000,000 population. Other fairs have overshadowed that without startling success. They even became practical cultures in the late fairs should be as great as the later fair as the Columbian fair was greater than all things that had preceded it. in space, the new fair should be the late fair from the northern limits of the extended lake farthest limits of the extended lake boulevard to be created along the lake short to the Indiana line. Let even the dunes become an integral plant at Whitling and the Gary steel mills just as they are in actual practical operation day by day themselves exhibits in the fair. Why use them when we have the genuine, the practical, for exhibits?
Wanta Time Extended
What is impressive about a fair open for six months? The new fair should run for at least 18 months as the city's budget has been cut to 1337, including both the centennial years of Chicago's origin. The tremendous money expenditure required to produce a fair great enough to be a museum is now sufficient for a longer time than six months. It will not pay to create so great a thing for a mere six months period. It is waste to spend all that time and destroy it in so brief a time.
Every idea thus far presented would result in creating nothing but a Chicago fair. The new fair should be state, every nation in all the world should be induced to make this its own fair just as intensively as if the nation were its own court. That can done its would be be a Chicago production. Chicago should appear merely as the location most convenient, most likely to yield the greatest possible profit for the money put into a world activity and a world display. Truly there is a world display to promise every exhibitor, every contributor, the utmost of cash return on every dollar put into a world trade appeal, or travel. Chicago should be the demonstration that.
Buildings Should Amaze World
What is this talk of getting various cities, states and nations, various trades or groups to erect buildings it this new fairy. All the former fairs are now more marketable. There should be a single main building. It should be of permanent construction. It should be a space so seating and world in grandeur, beauty and extent. It should be conceived as one unit, harmonious in design throughout. In it every main department should be involved, should hold the manufacturers' building, the machinery hall, the agricultural building, the educational exposition of religions, etc., as units within the one great structure, uniform in design, all contributing to a greatness not otherwise conceivable. No unit should be designed to should design haphazardly, resulting in a miscellaneous, heterogeneous collection of inharmonious and insignificant. Cost of the exhibiting states, nations and groups of industry should later be persuaded to maintain here permanently the fair is over, in international exchange, a world center.
LATTA
Explain How Criminals
Italians of Chicago are resenting the accusation that members of their race are perpetrators of the more violent crimes committed every year. A letter refuting this claim, written nearly daily, gave the information that the proportion of the crimes committed or attributed to Italians is less than 3 per cent. The evidence, however, shows that murder committed during the period from 1923 to 1925, 129 were attributed to Italian. He questions the accuracy of the police who attempted to establish the nationality of the victims, and the number that of the 515 murders, 243 were reported, "not solved," 75 were acquitted, 54 were pending and only 85 were convicted. It was argued also that the police may point to any race to which the authorities wish them to point, which is of course the most ill-favoured race. This indignant Italian wrote that "the police voices the sentiments of our people and explains why so many mysterious crimes are committed by "blacks."

And there's no after effect; doctors give Aspirin to children—often infants. Whenever there's pain, think of Aspirin. But get the real Bayer Aspirin; the genuine has Bayer on the box and on every tablet. All druggists, with proven directions.

(Continued from Page 1)
New, when informed of the charges, stuted to the press "that he had known Bob Church for years and been charged with these crimes and every time he did not like to prejudice such things, he did not believe there was any truth in the charges. I have heard charges these days and every time they have been found and requested that he "welcome a thorough and searching investigation by the department and had requested it."
Congressman J. Will Taylor, Republican national committeeman from Tennessee and patronage referee, branded as an "infamous canon that George H. Poole J. Harwood dropped as applicant for Memphis postmaster because he had refused to pay to Bob Church $2,550. Congressman J. Will Taylor, the postmaster after G. Tom Taylor was not appointed because he had taken the examination and failed."
When Church was asked about the statements in the Appeal papers, he said: "I have never had a question about the records of the church everybody knows that I was not connected in any way with the defunct Fraternal Solvent bank. If I had a note there in 1925 it was certainly the records of the bank will show." Sol Seches, former postmaster, who failed to be reappointed on account of his failure to pay the records of the bank will show.
Sol Seches, former postmaster, who failed to be reappointed on account of his failure to pay the records of the church had never solicited money from him or made any demands as to appointees at the postoffice" and he sheed, acting postmaster, said he would be the office of postmaster at Memphis, and that Church did not approach him exacting any terms in the way of a request to the personnel of the postoffice; that Church's support was without strings. Some people here are expecting a hot time between now and the primaries next August.

MANY firemen have a good word for PERUNA, the world's greatest tonic for over fifty years. Naturally, these gallant men need the fortifying, strength-building qualities of PERUNA to keep them on the job. Read, for instance, these grateful words from Captain Benjamin Cronley, with Engine House Number 8, Indianapolis: "I was terribly afflicted with catarch of the head, nose and stomach. I was losing weight — finally a member of the Department advised me to take PERUNA— took four bottles and it made a new man of me, it seemed. Picked up in weight. Siept better and my work wasn't so tiresome. I started taking it again as a good tonic two months ago to brace me up, for my work is very hard at tines. It sure makes me feel good."
For conditions which need a good tonic, there is nothing just like PERUNA. If you are run-down, nervous, irritable, sleep poorly and have no appetite, heed the words of the Captain, and buy a bottle of PERUNA!

CITES REASON FOR PROBE ON ARTHUR FROE
Says Recorder's Work Is Away Behind
Washington, D. C., March 20. — Herbert D. Brown, chief of the United States bureau of efficiency, in a moment Monday, denied that it was the purpose of the efficiency bureau in making its study of the office of the recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia to take that office away from our people as a bureau. He declared that the intent of the bureau was to make the work of that office current and the office itself efficient. He chaired Arthur G. Frow, the recorder of deeds, with bad faith in trying to co-operate with representative of the bureau.
Committee Investigates
The Gibson investigating subcommittee of the house district committee is making an investigation to determine why the recorder of deeds did not adopt recommendations of the bureau of efficiency after it had been approved similar offices in a large number of cities throughout the United States. The statement of Mr. Brown is as follows:
"There is nothing further from my thoughts than attempting to have the office of the recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia other than a Colored man. Except for a brief period under the Wilson administration, that office has been in charge of a Colored man ever since it was created, and I believe it should so remain.
The only interest of myself and the bureau of efficiency, who made the study of the office of the recorder of deeds, is to bring the work of that office current and to make the office so efficient that it can be pointed to as model recorder's office, and reflect not only upon the head of the office but upon the Colored race as a
Sought Improvement
"Our study of the office of the recorder of deeds was made at the request of the chairman of the house committee on appropriations (Representative Martin B. Madden, Republican of Illinois), and the chairman of the house committee on the record of the presentative Frederick N. Zillahian, Republican of Maryland). It being the desire of these two gentlemen to assist the present recorder in every way possible to improve the work and procedure of his office.
"At the time of starting our survey the office was 15 months in arrears, and we clearly indicated the recorder that it was our purpose and desire to help him in every way possible.
"This we have conscientiously tried to do. Unfortunately, however, the recorder failed to carry out his promission. We have had to limit the lack of co-operation upon the part of the recorder necessitated my withdrawing the services of the bureau's investigator that had been assigned to assist him in carrying out the investigation by this bureau looking to bringling the work of that office current and to putting it upon an efficient operating basis. The bureau before submitting its final report on each recommendation with the recorder. At that time he stated that each one of the recommendations met with his approval and that he would cooperate wholeheartly with us in carrying out the investigation in effect. He accordingly stated this promised co-operation was so lacking that it was necessary to withdraw our investigator."

Dr. Caldwell watched the results of constipation for 47 years, and believed that no matter how careful people are of their health, diet and exercise, constipation will occur from time to time regardless of how much one tries to avoid it.

The chairman of the board of trustees just received from Dr. Embree head of the Julius Rosenwald fund. Dr. Embree said: "Mr. Rosenwald has asked me to state specifically that his interest is in no small part due to his confidence in President Obama, from whom he knew at college and for whose work he has great admiration."
Thirty-five thousand dollars of this appropriation will be used to build and equip a modern dining room to seat 500 students and $15,000 of this amount will be used to construct an additional academic building which will relocate the crowded condition at the college. Both buildings will be constructed entirely by students under the supervision of the instructors in the various industrial departments and will be of fireproof construction. With the coming of President Humberto M. Ramos, a year ago, the whole state of Georgia has given promise of a more progressive and generous attitude toward education.

We are using the South are using one hand when we might use two, we are using one eye when we might use both, we are using one eye when we might run and jump and leap on the highway toward progress and prosperity."

Congressman Dyer's announcement in Washington last Tuesday night helped Hoover for president was followed by a number of telegrams of protest from Republican organization leaders of both races in the twelfth district from which Dyer was elected a delegate to the Republican national convention.
Opposition Possible
Judge Clark, who was elected with Dyer as one of the two delegates from the twelfth district to the national convention, and who declared himself for Lowden for the Republican nomination, following his (Clark's) election by the congressional convention held here March 14 was among those who sent protesting telegrams to Dyer.
“His constituency in the twelfth district is not for Hoover,” said Clark. “Mr. Dyer’s announcement that he favors Hoover’s disrunted the entire district. I talked with a number of committeemen and committees women and they all feel as I do about it.
“Dyer's action was a complete surprise. The sentiment of the convention here a few days ago was for Lowden. We would have passed a resolution instructing Mr. Dyer and myself to vote for Mr. Lowden had it been considered necessary. Nobody believed Dyer to be for Hoover. I was for Lowden, so it was thought best to wave the instructions.”
There are some indications that the year after Hoover handled the big floods he will also manage the big landslide. Council Huffs Nonpareil.

The idea of gathering a group of friends Lois will leave the same one and forming a permanent club originated with Miss Helen Perry, one of our most popular rebounders the club aside from the novel entertainments it gives for its membership only, is vastly interested in its own pet charities and its latest contribution was a vastly interested in each of their four magazines which will adorn the tables of the South parkwalkway.
SATURDAY. MARCH 31. 1928
Gavety realigned supreme at the Saturday afternoon affair though, for all serious sides of life were forgotten. The rooms of Mrs. Glover's home were creased in gold attire, prettily decorated with spring flowers, carrying out a color scheme of green and white. In the center of the table was a large green box, ornamented with shamrocks, and in this receptacle were placed various gifts, each being tied with a narrow green eatin ribbon, which held at the other end in a dainty lover's knot a tiny doll labeled with the name of Helen.
The table was made more attractive by numerous green candles in silver holders, green nut baskets containing green mints, and green service glassware. Mrs. Helen Brown, blindfolded, pulled from the box a gift for each of the Helens present, naming the receiver in a naive manner, causing much mergiment and a happy birthday celebration.

Dear Princess: Please help me. I am very despondent. I have been married to unhappy years. At one time I loved my husband with all of my heart, and marriage was sacred to me, now he has changed me. He deserted me several times and in between those times I met another man. We kept company for a year that my husband came back, asking my forgiveness. I gave him another chance, only to find him just as he always was one. I did and indifferent. He has an awful temper and has fought me many times to quiet his temper. He has insulted me in public places, yet he says he loves me. I was told that he was untrue, although I have never seen him with a woman. He will say that I left him, and I will get the blame as he has painted himself as an ideal and devoted husband. My health is failing from grief. What must I do? He is in business for himself. We have two boys, 12 and 14. Neglected Wife.
It seems to be an unsolvable problem, to tell just what does all humanity (at this particular time) the men, especially. They do not seem to be satisfied with a good woman, neither can they content themselves with a bad one. They seem to linger between thrills and decency. Your husband is not liable to make any remarkable changes for good. His present routine is thoroughly established, and he will pursue the same, luddenly. Sixteen years is a long time, but not nearly as long as fifty. It is better for you to see your matrimonial ties, now, while you are young enough to be of service to yourself and others, than to wait until you are old to leave. The children are reaching the place where they need the very best environment. They cannot receive it if conditions are as bad as you say around your home. If the other man proves companable and you can see that he means something, it is advisable to allow him to know that he will be your choice as soon as you are free.
Dear Princess: I am a reader of your wonderful advice, so am writing you concerning a certain young lady that I have been keeping company with for a year. She is 21 and I am 21. She tells me that she loves me and has proved it to me in many ways, until another woman whom I took for a friend of mine, began misforming the young lady I keep company with. She told things on me that were untrue, trying to break up. My lady friend believed the things and are to do this that I did not approve of, but since then she has found me to be true and all she heard was false. The things she did were only for spite and now she clauses she is sorry, but she really broke my heart. What should I do in a case, like this? I was supposed to marry her in June, but now I can't say. The other woman was one whom I had helped and her husband when they were almost destitute. Do you think I should forget everything and try to see if she will be the same: I love her and believe she loves me.

Meritorious Acts Remain Unknown for Want of Publicity
Meritorious Acts Remain Unknown for Want of Publicity
To conform with our promise to make the woman's page of the Cilicago December the greatest ever, we began in the first issue of the year to tell to women of right. So each and every issue will be given for an account of some achievement but our readers must be in mind that no one is to name a date for the publication of any article and only those will be published and advertised.
Asking Co-operation
Many things of an unusually complex composition by women and girls of the Race have been called to the attention of the world, and she is sure being always in mind to please our readers and also give publicity to Mrs. Nettie George Speedy is sending her to make co-ventures in helping her to make one of the greatest in the new world. She is asking you to meet her half way. When you learn of anything that will place her in the unusual class, please send Mrs. Speedy the information lightens our readers about the wonder that is being made by our combedbust.
Aims for Success
It may often be an incentive for a young girl to struggle unceasingly to accomplish her end if she knows that the eyes of the world are upon her, that the same eyes are watching every step and many prayers are being offered for her ultimate success. It is not belittling to declare that each and every one of us nurses the well-being to want a little praise for our efforts or endeavor in any field.
This appeal does not apply to individual work alone, but sometimes classes and clubs of women are linked together and are doing much of a nitorious nature to lend their strength to a venture, and the very fact of the support of these women being paramount in the mind of an individual often makes her succeed in spite of herself.
Look for the Girl
Women and girls are doing something very important. You may know about it, so why not let others know. If a young girl graduates from school is something unusual. If a woman or girl is something unusual, and carries away the "blue ribbon," the accomplishment is worthy of publicity, good, your school, your church, in fact, to give it a special meaning, to light the doings of your own sex and send them with pictures when speedy, early of the Chicago Detectives, speedy, early of the woman's page the ephebodal of your own. It will cost you nothing. These artworks write upon one side of the paper and send a picture of your woman, girl or woman, possibly the rest. Let the readers know what the other girls of our own face.

whatever anyone else tries to build up. They are not all alike in their subtle schemes, but the result is usually the same. He or she, may have no real reason to bring distress, but the Four Horsemen were no more damaging. They are almost unvariably ones who have received aid and succor at the hands of those whom they try to harm. It's the old thing about biting the hand that feeds you. This woman friend, proved true to form. She was more about you than many others, so she could be believed if any one wanted to do so. It's the so-called friends who get some parts of our private affairs then tell a lie, and because they lived our lives, constantly the silence just he will like it for the truth. Your lady friend showed a very weak mind when she accepted some one else's words in place of yours. Now she is sorry, but I feel that your confidence is a bit shaken and your "feelings hurt," so it will be difficult to forget the past. You can try. Nothing beats a trial but a failure.
Dear Madam: After reading your helpful advice given in your column, I am now ready to serve for myself. I am the mother of a young girl, the oldest one is a girl of 22, who is married to a man who treats her very well. The youngest is a boy of seven years. My foster mother died about five years from her death my grandmother died and left me her home. I wanted to keep the youngest of them and bought a place sold both of them and bought a place to keep the place up. I that a paid-up insurance policy; he took a car and a mobile. He lost that. Then he bought a truck. He failed to keep up the payment signed some notes for friends of his mother who was taken. He is a chaperone member and a class leader. I can sew and do anything. What must I do—*F*?
What kind of a head of the house is a man like this? And such a family, too: Eight children, and only one away from home. You deserve every comfort that a man can attain. Your entire life has been given to child-bearing and the time is high when you must have care and a home. If he will not provide one. It's up to you. He is an absolute failure and will not do anything now, only waste everything you place in his way. He has had his chance and has thrown it aside, and whether he is husband or otherwise he is wrong. Many hundreds of men who are struggling, single-handed, would be "small-time millionaires" if they had ever had some one to give them a "break". He you gave him I advise you to try to work and keep the children together. As they grow old enough to understand, impress upon them the importance of establishing a home so that you can have a few years of comfort. If "P" wants to work and help all right, if not, so good.

Mobile, Ala.—This week finds Billie Curry and his fast stopping bunch at our theater. Last week Bowman and his Cotton Blossoms played to packed houses all week. This show was jam-up from start to finish. It was of the style called "class." There was no smut on this show. The outfit carries 11 performers. The costumes no longer have new and updated. The chorus Elizabeth Guene, Mary Young, Old Mae Bishop, Mary Lee and Adel Bandell. The comedians were Leroy White, Jack Foster and Sam Ranahan. The house is a house in an uprast during the entire show. Much credit is due, these boys.

There will be eight teams in the league this season. Mobile's games will be played here at the oaty's big house and Joe Ballarier is stonekeeper. The writer's old friend, Chick Lewis, who is athletic director here at the Booster T. Washington school, joined the team last week. We lost W. last Tuesday night. The W. G.

The farewell performance of Doo Straine's "Chocolate Scandal" at the Lincoln theater was indeed a good one, especially at the midnight ramble. Every one of the company was compelled to respond to encores with the number of one- and two-Bilo Sam Hussell got, excited to miss Bonnie C. Calhoun of Galveston, Texas.

Dempsey Williams, the beautiful young job William S. is an all night farewell party, soarded the train Saturday for the Windy City, en route to New York to the bedside of a sick mother. Here's hoping she will find everything O. K. John has been doing picture work here. I really know the following soon:
Claude Kennedy and his versatile chestra was the big hit at the farewell midnight ramble of Doe Straine's company. These boys just blew in from Texas with little advance knowledge, but before they leave I think everyone will know and want to be the one of Kennedy and his lunch because they certainly have a united eccentric gang.
The new policy at the Lincoln theater went into effect March 16 with Curtis Mosco's Blue Blowers, under the direction of Walter Johnson, Curator Mosco, who is the head of the line of the two-year arts of vandeville with two white acts and Frank Rogers's ventilhouish, and Bert Chadwick's features, in the art of the black-框ed Frank. But the new, we know. The two white acts were good in themselves but were only fair at the Lincoln, where the audiences of the two-year arts are so good as the allied, as a straight man and a chorusman. The Lincoln can continue her new policy by always having a comedian and a small tab show on every week's day. As a result, he has always been always wants what it hasn't got. If the ethic of Los Angeles do not want lookum, why haven't they attended the concerts at the Philharmonic and a bottom-down season, and where the last work in symphonic, overartic and classical music is guaranteed.

The more the direction of John McCarthy, The Fox studios also kept pace with the M-G-M, by shooting "The Thief in the Sky," and the new show of the new stella has dissolved partnering with Stompey is now doing a single, think Stella is contemplating a trip back east.

The show has also been a show show. She is looking fine and is rehearsing a gang for week-ends at the Plantation. Carolynne Snowden passed the time the other night inaking the show.

THE MUSICAL BUNCH BY DAVE PEYTON
Things in General
and liquid refreshments at his elbow. Al Johns was in his clematis. Emuhi He was the embodiment of merriment. Having had years of contact as enlisted soldier, he took to folk. At knew well their varying tastes, he was necessary for them to ask him to sing this or that song or tell such and such stories, and imitated their wishes, he knew what they were.
Bob Shater of the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent association and other old-timers recall first seeing Al in the Douglass club, a rendezvous for performers and pleasure seekers, then conducted at MJ W. 31st St. Nearly every year he goes to a gymnastics. Al had just come to the metropolis from Washington.
Al Johns next blossomed out as a song writers. In those days Negro composers dominated the song writing industry—Cole and Johnson brothers, Ernest Hogan, Irving Jones, Chris Smith, Cecil Mack and Tim Bryn. Al enjoyed distinction for his "close harmony." Victor Herbert used to compliment him on his blending of tones.
For a time this gift put music publishers at a disadvantage. Anything of Johns played on the piano sounded exceptionally good. It was accepted the changes it did be summoned to put down the melody. When Al left the piano copy was gone over the number sounded little like what the Colored composer had played. The melody and rhythm were recognizable but the progression and modulation of chords were alarmingly missing.
Publishers finally made it a rule that no song was to be taken from Al Johns until there was a striking resemblance to what he played and what could be played from the original piano score.
Some of the numbers to which Johns set music to the words were "Go Way Back and Sit Down," "If I but thought You Cared for Me," "For the Last Time Call Me Sweetheart," and "It Comes in the After While."
Among the Broadway stars to commission Al Johns to write special stories for the play, he was seventh. Later she made him musical director of her company. In each town Al rehearsed the orchestra and accompanied Miss twain at the plano.
Concealed by Screen
I have distinct recency of an engendered collection at the Century theater in St. Louis for I won a bet from friends that Al Johns was stopping at one of the large hotels never known to cater to
Advance information having been received that Johns accompanied the musicians to the youth Negroes so that the Centennial theater bubbling over with race pride. But they were greatly disappointed. The composer played for the come-ons from view behind a screen. I understand St. Louis was not the only city where the pianist officiated incipient, Al Jardine, and other celebrities. In 534 D. was frequented by the leading theatrical people, well-known first-nighters and other celebrities. Al Jardine delighted mimewriters with the latest musical numbers. Ford Dalhane, Charlie Wilson, Will Dixon, James Ames, and others were also entertained. Joe Grey, Bill Blackwell and John Europe also were rated high as entertainers. And they and the white night reveler desirous of becoming inoculated with what then was known as rugine rhythmic, went to Marshall's. Barron Wilkins's Little Sawyer and Bill Bank's in 534 St. North Harlem was then stiff and stained. Not the fairest suspicion existed that the theater and social changes were in prospect.
Al Johns used to take a prominent part in a Colored musical show on the campus of Waukee, and before the close of the theatrical season, for the role he liked best was that of chasing the blues away for the four hundred. "You leave New York you're camping out," was not a wiscreach but a truism. About five years ago Al was the visitor of a stolleny stoke. Later he was to England to entertain Reginald Vanderbilt, who was in London.
For the last two years Al Johns life was leading a from hand-to-mouth existence. He suffered another stroke.
His widow, Mrs. Louise Johns of 148 W. 142d St. was notified by the government of her husbands' death.
FOURFLUSHING
There is altogether too much four flushing with our would-be leaders of those who would have you think that they would be leaders. The very first thing in orchestra leader should learn to play in handling the musicians.

to be leaders. The very first thing an orchestra leader must be diplomacy in handling the musicians. In the beginning musicians must be they are just like fawns; the lead, scolding a leader gives them they fear they are not wanted and that their days on the job are numbered. The next thing the new students to learn is the theory of what he is doing. Wildly swimming a baton, turning somersaults in the orchestra pit does not impress the element who know music and what its proper allegiance to be. We have our own Will Marion Cook, known the world over for his eccentric, but theoretical directing, and his face directing years ago and I would wager that he would give most of the present day directors the run around, as Cook commands an orchestra and is rated as one of the masters of the art of
The public today disregards the forefusher who indulges in cyclonic animated gymnastics while moving the body in frightful swims means nothing. The baton is the instrument that reflects the conductor's knowledge of the dance and with the left hand pointing the score. Emotional displays are all right when the score calls for it but at no time does the conductor move the wheel around and clown. The atmosphere that the symphony orchestra invites must be associated with careful knowledge and dignity of the
Other Directors
We can number quite a few capable orchestral directors who really know what they are doing. Vaughn, for many seasons was the associate of Will Marlon Cook in the old Williams and Walker days. He was the bassist of the baton. Will Vodley, the master arranger, is another conductor who has won distinction as a batonist in the finest musicians in the country. Joe Jordon, Fred Simpson, P. G. Lowery, and Allie Ross are some of the finest orchestral directors who are theatrists with the baton.
The Music Game
There seems to be a full all over the country in the music game, probably because this is presidential election music in the music game is prohibition violations. So many amusement places that hire orchestras have been closed. In the Middle West over five thousand orchestras are employed and the future doesn't look so well either. Among the white musicians many are going into other lines; many of them had the initialization when the game was good, and this is just what this writer has been preaching for two years in this column. When music flops for you you will be protected by the orchestras are not married to any of the jobs we hold. The employer might take a dislike to you at any time, although your ability is O. K. You lose your job; you are not married to any of the jobs you hold you are with all of your music knowledge and nowhere to demonstrate it.

Sutter's Snappy Six
Albert Sutter and his Snappy Six have the same name. The combination of une players is very popular throughout the southern states. In the line-up are the following: Robert Gill, Jack Murgant, William Brooks, Albert Sutter, T. J. Lee, Charles Montgomery, Clarence Smith and W. W. Wippe. 613% W. Wippe, S. Savannah, GA.
Jesse Merriwether
Jesse Merriwether, a young man who is doing wonderful constructive work in Chicago in the music art, the movies and the pottery, the pots he makes, the pots he has here that he will not seek publicity. Nevertheless this writer, rather robust in stature, will take the liberty to hand Jesse what is coming to him, and he will use me some time later. He is a young man who has studied hard to perfect himself first in music. He accomplished that and began his career as a teacher of the music. He has presented some of his pupils in recital and most of them youngsters, not in their teens yet, have been marvels. Surely Mr. Merriwether must have been teaching these children, who are proving that he knows what he is doing.
Last Monday night he presented in recital Mary Walker Robinson, also a music teacher. Miss Schumann, accordingly, instructed Schumann, Chopin, Debushey, Rubenstein, Mendelssohn and Lissat. One of his little star pupils from the school is little Muriel Farmer, one of this writer. This child, only 10 years old, plays the works of the masters with due ease. April Lee, one of the would tackle them. All she knows Jesse Merrifield taught her. June Evans, another youngster, will appear in April Lee's Leeds, June Lena Merrifield, October Lena Merrifield in hallia 1285. All of these players have been taught correctly by Jesse Merrifield, who taught them and with his normal course finished, hung out his shingle and today no other teacher in Chicago has such a skill as this young man.
Al Johns Dead
Lester Walton writes about Al
Johns and says the following:
Al John, for many years a favorite of the 400 as a purveyor of mirth and melody, died recently in the American hospital. The ever-jovial, obliging, savve Negro was a familiar figure in the drawing rooms of Fifth Ave, Long Island. Members of the Vunderbilt, Freilinghysen and Goetel families rated "Al" as he was popularly called, an "alleged murderer." Reginald Vunderbilt sedum gave a party unless he was on hand to sing and tell funny stories. Al gave the party a good deal and was accordingly compensated. Seated at the piano with cigarettes
Johns was a master of improvisation. To sing a popular diky and lively tune, he names of all guests present was a speciality that tickled the vanity of his hearers. And he could compose a song based on some incident in which members of the party were principals. When Al concluded his audience was about fed up on music and song he decided to take a training and tell amusing stories.
Picturesque Figure
Al Johns' career was kaleidoscopio and pictureque. He was a producer of New York night life when the Tenderloin flourished unbridled and unrestrained and when the bulk of the Negro population was south of 53 St.
While a habitue of the Douglass club Al learned to play the piano. His first big job was at Silver Dollar Smith's, 31st St. and 31st Ave., patronized by big spenders and stylishly dressed women. There he made a statement of the socially prominent. He was the best liked entertainer in the place.

"BLACK BELT" NEW PLAY
Albert Lewis, one of the few theatrical producers who never go to Palm Beach, will probably start work on the play called "Black Belt" as soon as he arrives home from London. (He went over there, it may be because he was in England, which the English seem to call a little, but not immoderately. "Crud Snatchers," by the way, is a failover there.) "Black Belt" of course, is a play that presumably to be acted by a Negro cast. It has to do with a family that migrates from the South to Hurleen, and has problems of adjustment. Association Lewis in the venture will be Crosby Calge, perhaps the most prolific of co-authors. He has likewise joined Lewis with his production of a play called "Romance, Inc." written by Crane Wilbur and H. V.

SAM RUSSELL WEDS
Los Angeles, Calif.—"Twas what is known as the holiday season and everyone had begun to sort of bubble over with good cheer. According to routine, the curtain at the Lincoln on this particular evening of which we are about to speak, rolled back at 7 o'clock and Bilo came forward.
Now, Bilo, prior to this occasion, had appeared on many stages, gazed out on many audiences dotted with many comely tassles. "But, says the curtain, we have come into eyes that set on fire my soul."
It was charming little Miss Johnnie Calhoun, who sat in the Lincoln theater, accompanied by her mother, C. Calhoun, and her sister C. Calhoun of Galveston, Tex., and when the curtain at the Lincoln went down for the last time that evening, Sam (Bilo) Russell was on the job at the cedar where he met and captured the body who was soon to share his destiny.
Miss Calhoun left immediately after this meeting for her home in Galveston, but the persistent lover was not seen. She sent letters, telegrams and flowers until she returned to this city Monday, March 5 and at 4 a.m. on Sunday, March 10. She had more than fifty selected guests, this rather senational romance culminated. Sam (Bilo) Russell went to the home of the late houn at the cozy home of Mrs. Margie McCampbell, 1437 E. 25th St. The bride was shrieking in pale georgette with blonde dumplings and a veil. She carried a bouquet of white marche-nelle rose buds. Mrs. Laura Calhoun, the matron of honor, was also cheerful. She carried a bouquet of Plus, who had known the bride from childhood, performed the marriage ceremony. The bride was given in marriage by her uncle, J. C. Henderson.
The McCampbell home was a fitting scene for the early morning marriage. banked in palms and lilies of the valley.

STARS THAT SHINE
By BILLY JONES
Jimmy Cooper, famous as a promoter of black and white companies on the Columbia virect for several years and also the money-gatherer for the circuit until with the Mutual wheel, will organize a new combination black and white for a special summer enchantment at the Waldron casino, Boston. Butter Company will play the part of the company and Cooper will head the white company, playing the first part of the presentation opening, opening April 2 for an indefinite engagement. The cabadours Ministrels are routed through Montana the greater part of March. Cuba is still in the land of cotton in West Palm Beach, Florida, at 614 North St. It says that New York is the year child of the cold weather make him shiver. Lew Leslie's new Black Birds revive which the late Florence Millars starred to open on Broadway this spring. The johnson coke adder Hald, Aida Wars, Plattonation orchestra are to be featured. More than a score of newspaper men were entertained at Small Music, Seventh Ave., New York, for the concert on land, who are doing some recording for the photograph companies.
Billy Jones puts over the sugar number just too bad. To hear him sing, you need to see the Dixie Four, the real aces of Race quartets, are at the Hippodrome, New York. These boys are real showmen and know showmanship regardless of what a few Race performers see and Billy Jones, the well-known baritone, will give some recitals while in Jacksonville, Fla., outside of other theatrical work. He is just as much success singing the spirituals and dances as singing the jazz and comic songs.
Lee Moseley's song "Gilded Kisses" is being featured by the Alphonso Trent orchestra at the Roseland casino, Lexington, Ky. It is to be and plugged extensively in New York.

"Keep Shufflin'", which has the best stage dancing, ensemble and solo we have seen this year, started by the theater, which was the home of "Shufflin' Along" that most successors of "Keep Shufflin'" proved so lovely that nobody had time to sing our spirituals. Need we say more?body was an artist from the tail sensational toe dance, to the short, equally sensational male dance, to the fat and jovial pianist in the orchestra pit. And what an orchestra! If it were at a night club you get up and dance, forgetring renaissance, satelite, lumbago or any other. Journey Miller and Aubrey Lyles, who were the comedians of "Shufflin' Along" and "Runnin' Wild", were the comedians of Clark and McCullough, we recall no funnier pair of comedians; that is, when they have the right material in the first act was their own fault, because they wrote the book. But they were gorgeously funny in which included one side-splitting scene.
"Keep Shufflin'", has a sure-fire song that the "Sunshine" was sung early in the movie. In clever fashion by Miss Jean Starr, who seemed about 99 per cent, white. In the movie, the body will be singing, humming or whistling before the week is ended, and, no doubt, before the season is over, will try unsuccessfully to forget it.
Con Conrad, the producer, is the well-known song writer, and he it is not only provided not only a large cast but he has also in the company every type of performer known to musical and even to exceptional a male quartet, a form of entertainment that we for, one would never miss. There is one youthful player who has been a concerting comedienne Maude Billie Yarbough, who is said to resemble Josephine Baker of Paris, and a concerting comedienne is much funnier. She clowned and grimaced to her own and everybody else's enjoyment. "I'm almost a perfect show. All it needs is more humor in the first act. However, it has enough dancing, fun and melody to it run a long time at Daly's theater.

We have had so many requests for a copy of our humorous verse en-
titled "Oh, My People!" that the only method we can employ to fulfill the
desire is to publish a column of humorous verse.
A monkey sat beside the road
His thoughts were sad and gloomy;
He said: "Of money I've no load
And way and no roomy.
I'll aid me here beside the way
And perhaps some cheerful giver
Will hand me something from his pay
That will pay her.
Soon a son of Italy passed by
And said: "Da poor litta monka"
And fell in bed before me
He throw the monkey a hambush.
A Jew then chanced to pass that way,
And spokes with naive assurance,
"If we pledge to buy a dog
When I gets my fire insurance."
And old John D. out for a stroll,
Saw the monk and had compassion,
A dime he get the money to roll
And gave, just to be in fashion.
Then Henry Ford went nashing past
In a banquet at the hotel
The monkey caught the (scient and gasped,
"The Lord loves a cheerful giver."
Then a handsome Cadillac drew near,
It was ill, but it was hers.
The monkey said: "Now, I'll get the real cheer,
They're so different from the others."
The speeding car—ah! sad my tale!—
Rocked the house, people.
And as he fell, folks heard him wail:
"My people: Oh, my people."
"Microscopic Fulurens of Destiny," a chapter in Professor Lubomir Sapanoff's book entitled "The Chemistry of Fatality," contains the following pertinent paragraph: "It is a common error of belief among writers that the highest and last of the mental faculties to appear is as a matter of fact, the critical faculty is the lowest of all mental faculties, below mechanical reason itself. The critic is the motive of the conscious mind."
Airing our troubles, deficiencies, delinquencies and vulgar traits in the white magazines must be a profitable occupation for a few of our pseudo critics of color. To our mind it is not a commendable occupation. All of us must be aware of the fact that we do not further publicity. Our faults and weaknesses have just about observed whiteness of merit we possess. That what has been said of us and about us bears a modicum of truth is not sufficient justification for the publication of deleterious articles.
The Race may be considered as a family. Every family has its quirks, its misunderstandings, its black sheep and its skeletons. The members of each family say many things to each about each other, but they strive to be as united as possible. We may call them "nigger," but the other fellow says it at his own risk. We may call our children brats, but we are not going to stand for Mrs. Brown across the alley casting aspersion at our progeny.
No class of players has had a rougher road to travel, has been more beset by vicissitudes than our dramatic players, the Bishops, Andersons, Priors, Thompson, Clouss, Desmonds and Moores, as Mr. Lewis has put it. Any criticism of them and their work should at least be tempered with more short of criminal.
It has always been conceded to us that we could sing and dance, but to say that we could act was to elicit loud guffaws of laughter from the majority of the opposite. Many of them had never heard of the Petin Stock company and the Laffleet Players that forced the skeptical of the white race to grudgingly concede that some of us at least possessed histrionic ability.
The ups and downs of our dramatic players, for the most part, forms a pathetic episode in our theatrical history. From town to town these players journeyed, often salaryless and near to hunger. Always doing their best, they greeted by full houses, permitting them to ride for a few days in the joywagon of anticipation. The next stand they would be playing to a skeptical few, striving to please, while all the time they were wondering how they could pay their expenses and get to the next stand.
Propagandists, every one of them. Even the most filiterate realized that these players were convincing the public that in the dramatic field, as eleven-year-olds, they were courageous players not waiting on opportunity—they were making their own opportunities. At last, rumors of their ability reached the sacred precincts of Broadway.
Charles S. Glipin was one of our devotees of the drama. He traveled from place to place, sometimes in vandeville, sometimes doing stock. No one paid much attention to him. Often they laughed at his efforts. His name was Bessie Beecher, but he was born even in demand with the dramatic players. Then came his opportunity with the Abraham Lincoln show. White critics recognized his ability and, as is usually the case, and then not till then was he given consideration by the critics. He became the "Emperor Jones" and Glipin's name was headlined in every player while his reputation and popularity as an actor of unusual merit circled the globe.
A presentation of "Salome" also gave Broadway an opportunity to look at a few of our best dramatic players, Evelyn Preer, Laura Bawman, Slater, and others. We are the indomitable, indefinite players whose names have been defamed and whose work has been ridiculed by a critic who prates to us about Race pride, and who betrays such people as these for so many cents per word in a white magazine.
It is a sad twist of fate and an indictment against our Race that any person or persons who elects to champion any cause for our people will be held accountable for their actions. We hold to the tenements of our progress has given its approval we can hope for recognition from our own people. Our artists may sing like Gabriel, paint like Raphael, play like Tadderwesk or write like Shakespeare, but so long as we do not do anything wrong, we will be small interest, but once the white world gives its approval, we tumble one over the other to do them homage, we wine them and dine them and pin medals on their breasts. "My people, Oh, my people!"
If our dramatic players are walking the streets unemployed or standing at the doors of the Broadway theaters looking for theatrical handouts. it is because we have failed to appreciate them or what they were arriving at. We have failed to appreciate them or what they were arriving at. We have failed to appreciate them or what they were arriving at. We have failed to appreciate them or what they were arriving at.
Norn Bayes, the inimitable, well beloved vaudeville star, has passed. Not only has the world lost one of its greatest artists but we have lost a friend. We are almost safe to say that we have more friends in the theatrical world than in any other field of endeavor and Miss Bayes stood at the head of the list.
It was in Philadelphia that I saw Miss Bayes and her shadow, Little Florence Parnum. I never missed an opportunity to see Miss Bayes in action. The supernatural excellence of her work always captivated me. Upon meeting her at her home we did a little Bayes performance permitted to imitate and how the audience did enjoy that performance. The two wonderful artists were compelled to respond to encore after encore. Forced to acknowledge a dozen curtain calls, Miss Bayes laughingly told me at her home that she had tribute filled my eyes, for I could appreciate the time, patience and labor that Miss Bayes had given to perfect her shadow in the part she so excellently played.
Miss Bayes was always ready to give any of our writers or composers an audience when they had anything to offer. They received more than a fifty-fifty break from this wonderful woman. While playing Chicago she adopted a little brown-skin child than it might have a chance to enjoy. She was a little girl and she would again she went out of her way to do a favor for some member of our Race. A wonderful artist and a noble woman, we mourn her passing.
Nothing gives us a pain in the neck like the manager who is always right and the show is always wrong. The dressing rooms may be overheated (this rarely is the case except in the summer time) or they may be freezing-cold, but this should not affect the performance. There may be no orchestra in the pit, or there may be a drummer and a toneone cornet player. There may be no piano, but a symphony orchestra. There may be only three lines in the fly gallery, but that is no reason why the carpenter should not hang his entire show. There may be two or three stage hands back stage who have never been in the show. There may be no fact as an excuse for delays between scene changes. It may be the week before Christmas, Holy week or it may snow, but if business is bad, only the show is held to blame. He will complain like a rusty axle about the shortcoming of the show, but will not not acknowledge any defect in his policy. This class of manager is a hum sport, a hard loser and a pain in the neck.

many requests for a copy of our book," that the only method we can use is to repaint it in our column. It goes to prove that people life is such a serious proposition we can't afford to miss an opportunity to laugh at it, of which the four-legged animals, each he would have to be listed, can copy laughs into our mouths. Or cover a per cent of the serious things of life; the rest is it safe to say that there is more to cover a wide scope—morts of automobiles, balls, parties numerous to list. And any more? No, we are at our level. And we are at our levels. Is there more than to laugh our troubles and to laugh our windows and enshrouds us for a brief moment attached largely to the sum of Let's laugh?
It goes to prove that people wish to be amused. Life is such a serious proposition to most of us that we can't afford to miss an opportunity to laugh. The ability to laugh is one of the things that lifts us above the four-legged animals. If a monkey could laugh he would have to be listed as human. "Laugh and the world laughs with you; weep, and you weep alone." Only about one per cent of us incline towards the serious things of life; the rest are out to be amused. It is safe to say that there is more money spent for amusement than any other one thing. Amusements cover a wide scope—sports of all classifications, theaters, automobiles, balls, parties and other things too numerous to list. And why not? Life is short and time is fleeting. And as we live, day by day, death is ever at our heels. Is there any more effective method than to laugh our troubles and fears away? If we can chase the shadows and lighten the gloom that enshrouds us for a few brief moments, we have contributed largely to the sum of human happiness. Let's laugh!

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
COAST DOPE
By BUDDY BROWN
Greetings, World: Our desire this week is to comment upon the different articles written by our scribes. Also to call attention to some few things that may be overlooked by us in our daily whirl in this busy world, the necessity of a positive, contentment, contentment and success. This writer claims that there is an inexorable law of distribution. You will be surprised at the wrong you do today and tomorrow. Buck-biting, conceit, deceitfulness and hypocrisy. The sins that you do, two by two, you shall be guilty of. Our serpire, Mr. Whitney, whom I admire very much, mentions things every week that are helpful to most people. But there is not a week goes by but what I am forced to have an argument with actors who are supposed to reference to these same articles.
I am forced to listen to ridicule of my students. I think I'm better than the average actor because I had "two weeks in college." When the motive by which I acted was to elevate the profession and help in our way others succeed, it is not given to any of us in this generation to see our dreams realized fully. But each of us can live in our profession for those who follow in our footsteps with the hope that our ideal will be realized. I am constrained to comment upon the article of Miss Betty Martin of 2249 13th St. Canton, Ohio. In the article, I comment on the abstract, Miss Martin is right. More than 75 per cent of the present-day performers complain to her matriarch that she does not give the conditions in the professions as regards our group, are deplorable. But I am not the little lady is a bit too scary.
We must not forget that there is a power higher than man's power, because we are all judges to judge our fellow man, or else we shall be damned. Perhaps many of us are college or high school education, therefore it behoves those of us who are fortunate brother and sister—be liberal and confine our efforts to uplift instead of ridicule. We say in concluding Martina been in the show business, and why didn't she mention the name of her congregation with which she is travelled.
To thinking performers this is food for thought on the Pacific coast are only for them.
This writer has been sick in bed for quite a while, but will give you authentic information just the same. A new cafe opened for Race entertainment on March 15 in Frisco. It is the Apollo, a place that has never used Race entertainers before. The bunch that opened there are All Stewart's band and Brown Four revue, featuring Harding and Harding. They opened to a "wow" on March 15. Even boardenst, with little Hazel Harding being the star broadcaster. The remainder of the gang are Upshaw and McWilliams, Gertrude Maxwell, oLittle Brown, "Cracker" Jones, Chestline Johnson and Harry Jackson, with B. H. es) Harding as master of ceremo
My pat: friend, Jolly John Larkins, leave... or a tour over the A and H supplementary time on March 19 He finishes about May 6, after which he will play the Canadian big time, arriving in Chicago early in July. "E. Soul! Omega. (John Larkins)
An amusing incident occurred on March 9 here in San Francisco, from which place this article is written. The occasion was the arrival of Harry Muller, representative of the Williamson Tate theatrical enterprises of Australia. As he walked down the gangplank from his ship one of our "big" performers of the court was there to greet him. Although he (the performers) was alone, his patriotic spirit caused him to remove his cornet from its case, and play a welcoming tune called "California, Here I Gone" to the edition of thousands of white people standing around the docks. This performer was none other than our old friend. Buddy De Louch. Quite amusing, I'll say.

San Francisco, Calif.—This week finds the writer and partner in Frisco. Everyone is marking time and waiting for the opening of a big minstrel show and revue, billed to open here at the Capitol theater. This show will give employment to thirty or forty Race actors and actresses, which is a good thing just now, for there is the usual pretention slump in the theatricals on the Coast and there are any number of acts, both ofays and jigs, laying off. Hustling Frank Burns is sponsoring this show and has the best talent available booked to appear in same. We are pulling for him and trying to help him make it a success. More about this next week.
In Los Angeles the Lincoln theater is playing only to fair business with their new policy of straight vaudeville and pictures.
There is talk of sending a company of Race artists to Honolulu for a long run. Hope is materializes, as it will mean more work for the brother. The reports from Australia on Sonny Clay's bunch were not so favorable. Still we hope that they have made everything perfect by this time.

AMON'S PEN
By AMON DAVIS
Baltimore, Md.—As it has been quite a while since I wrote the W. G. W., I think it is about time to let the world know where we. Manle Smith and her gang, are and what we have been doing in the last few weeks. So here goes. We jumped from Pittsburgh direct to the Pearl theater in Philadelphia and turned them away all week; then to the Orpheum theater in Newark. N. J., and did a wonderful business; then we opened up a new field for our shows over the field circuit of theaters, booked by B. F. Keith. Our opening was at the St. James theater in Asbury Park, N. J., split week between there and the Broadway theater in Long Branch, N. J.
We did a wonderful business both places and would have been in Trenton, but we played out our two weeks' contract with Mr. Leachman at the Koyal in Baltimore, then we in Trenton, then we in Keith time, opening in Trenton. So things look bright for an extended season for us. While playing the Orpheum in Newark I went over to New York on a tour of the old gang and, say, what a time I had, I drove over in my new Dazmer, made a present to me by Bert Goldberg, and saw the faxette theater. The show was Jimmie Cooper's revue, with Butterbeans and Susie and she and the company were well-tuned. I also ran into Sandy Burns in the J—M—and we had a tea, and during the pow-wow Sandy told me of the wonderful success he is having at the Alhambra theater in our trip to the Coast has been postponed indefinitely for reasons not explained. Mamie was made a present of a Planner and it is a beautiful job, and as Miss Mamie is used to good cars, she fits in her new one like a hand in a
Ed Dayley's show is laying off this week and opens at the Lafayette theater. We opened here at the Royal to a packed house. Idan and Jae Hoensten were guests of honor in a box party featuring Dutter Beans and Susie. The Hoensten are resting up at their home here this week prior to opening in New York City. Miss Dolly Edwards, that clever little orchestral leader, is now directing the band at the Royal theater. Harper Stages numbers in New York City. Nat is one of the best in the business. I broadcast across the pond. I will say, Johnnie Hudson. I read your letter to my friend, Salem Tuttle. And was glad to know you. I am Brick Top and your wife; also Eddie Hunter. Norman Astwood.

First case on docket is the chorus girls. Judge, your honor, I. Amon Davis, am pleading for the defense. You know the poor little chorus girls have to work hard and I don't think it is fair for them to have to run up to the top floor or down in the basement to make their changes. Now, judge, your honor. I am only asking this in all fairness to the hard-working little chorus girls, who, if not for them the musical comedy shows would not be a success. See that they have dressing rooms on the first floor if possible; if not, as close to the stage as possible. Now, Mr. Manager, or stage manager of all of the musical comedy shows, you are the judges; so be fair. Think it over and I think you will see it in the same light that I do. Give the little chorus girl a break. They deserve it. Am I right? Yes. Well, all right then, and how.
Week of March 26 we will be at the Howard theater, Washington, D.C.

IN OLD KAYSEE
BY CHARLES O'NEAL
Kansas City, Mo.—Ed E. Daley's "Trinit to too company made a most intriguing show," this week. The company is a novelty song and dance affair in the this week. The company is charming in staging and entertaining sented by a company of clever entertainers, including a bevy of pretty girls. In fact, from a stage point, it is hard to imagine a group of girls ever seen at the Lincoln. Troy Brown, stage manager; Onnie Jones and Spencer Barnes, working with the company, have hilarious comedy sketch and were given a rousing reception. Kitty Ablauche, the clever little lead, has been the star of the melodies and indulged in original nonsense. The biggest hit of the entire night's entertainment was the performance of Paul scored from the start and was called back five times by the appreciative audience. Spanish origin, who was billed as an added attraction, scored heavily in dramatic roles. Others prominent in the east were Corrine Skin Models; Grace Rector, Verne Hutchins, Newman, Ann Washington and her husband, Clarence L. Marks, directs the orchestra from the bldg.

lossers. New York took the other eight.
So the homers were even and Paul Galico, sports editor of the New York Times, and the New York Teen doctors, seconds and the New York Teen back East a bit disappointed, but nevertheless happy because they were not beaten. Next year the intercity championships will be held in New York. Now we go back to Saturday night. Before Chicago's most colorful crowd in which millionaires rubbed shows with the barkeeper, society officials, and healthy looking athletes fought all they knew and were urged on by the plaudits of the crowd.
Some who weren't expected to win were the players who others found themselves stacked up against too great odds and lost out. Chicago fans gave the easterners a big hand when they won and a good hand even when they lost. They were funny folks. With but few exceptions they sure pull for the home town boy.
It was a $10 show for one, two and three plunks plus the government tax and as early as 7 o'clock sold out signs went up over the box offices. By 8 the house was well killed.
A rally by the 175-pounders of the Chicago team staved off defeat.
Jack Raymond, who lost to Dave Maize in the finals of the Tribune contest here was pitted against Yale through with a win and Dave, whose father is boxing instructor at the Milwaukee A. C. stopped Robert Olin in round 2.
Dave's victory by virtue of the fact that he was the classiest boxer the evening and waited to make his presence known, brought Chicago's total to seven all.
Then William Maddox of Chicago met Jerry Pavelee of Gotham. Looked for a minute like things were all off for William, but he came through 2 and Chicago's fliste fandom, even including Promoter J Mullen, who never gets excited, started rolling, their heads off. This victory placed Chicago leading, eight bouts to seven, and there was no chance to
Galico Worried
Mr. Galler looked worried. He was plainly nervous. Pretty hard to take back in neck to 424. So that folk the folk and 424. So that Chicago had wiped you. He had reasons to be nervous, although it didn't last long.
Everything was up to Walter Reed in the hospital heavy, who stopped Mahoney of Notre Dame cold in the Tribune's final. Walter carries a wallop that'll send Tunney to the canvas if he ever hits him. He built both George Hoffman, national Amateur Athletic union boxing champ. And George knew his onions. He was careful—so much so that the referee had to urge both men to mix it. George was far too experienced. His reach and height helped him. Once he decided to mix it he got set. George Hoffman him set. Several times he sent him to the canvas and his victory was casually scored.
The evening ended with eight wins for New York, eight wins for Chicago.
The greatest amateur show ever held in this city was over. The host had been a teacher and had been shown. The boutus did more to revive interest in boxing than anything ever held here. Father Knickerbocker had a fought Father Knickerbocker to a standstill.

DIAMOND MEDALIST
THE BOXING CLUB
Chicago 175-pound boxer, who upset the dome in the bouts between the Chicago Tribute golden glove with the New York News golden glove winners Saturday day night at the Coliseum when he won the diamond medal by getting the decision over Yale Rubin. Raymond and Hutsel were the only two boys of our group in the tournament. Both represent Chicago, and drew the fire of certain dyed-in-the-wool Chicagoans.
In this class in the first division Joe Bosak won from Billy Fugerson of New York.
Jack Sullivan of New York won from Billy Hutsel of Chicago in the first round of the class, although the crowd thought Hutsel was entitled to a draw. In the first division of the 126-pound class Tront Caragliano of New York stopped George Root of Chicago in the final round in New York.
Murphy of New York knocked out Henry Bisk of Chicago in the first round in the 135-pound class, second division. In the first division of the same class Joe Rund News Joe Jott Joe Kestan, a Chicago
The second division honors in the 147-pound class went to Billy Bennett of Chicago, who won from Steve back of New York beat Nick Fosco in the first division.
The second division honors in the 160-pound class were won by George Kothermel of Chicago, which brought the second to New York in round two. Eddie Herbst of New York won over Charles Bennett in three rounds in the first division.
Then came the 175-pound and heavyweight, which brought the second to its feet and worked them into a frenzy when Chicago by two wins in the 175-pound class and one in the heavyweight had a chance to win. Chicago fans were more than surprised with the showing of the local boys and pleased with the result. Many of the best amateur boys didn't get into the Tribune tournament, that they did if they entered the A. A. U. contest which ran the week previous they couldn't enter the Tribune tourney.

The judges were George A. Barron, sports editor of the Minneapolis Tribune and Ray Campbell of the Cleveland News.
The referees were Dary● Miller, Bill Collins and Ed Purdy.
Man Behind Bouts
The bouts were put over by Dan Maxwell, sports editor of the Chicago Tribune; Walter Eckersall, nationally known referee and Tribune football expert, with the assistance of the Tribune staff. On the New York end Paul Galico and his staff handled the New York Daily News contests which took over three weeks to decide and the finals were held in Madison Square garden before 20,000 paid advertisements.
Billy Hutsel and Jack Raymond, both members of the Chicago team, were the only two Colored boys on the intercity card. There were several in competition in Minneapolis of who were beaten, while others dropped out.
The first intercity amateur bouts between winners of the Chicago Tribune's annual golden gloves contest and the New York Daily News amateur gloves contest is now written in history.
It is a great thing for boxing here—must have been a great stimulus for boxing in New York.
Both cities gained. Charity gained. And everybody was happy. What more could he ask?
Raymond Beats Ruben
Jack Raymond of Chicago was awarded the decision over Yale Rubin of New York in the second division in the 15-pound class. Raymond surprised the crowd in the third round when he had the eastern second place winner in the New York tournament all in at the bell.
FIRST RUNN—Both sparred. They traded singles close in. Raymond's free reduced, human tried a left while, but Raymond ducked. They cliched Raymond led with life right and missed. Both unless again. Raymond connected on Rubin's law. New York was leading to the line to live, and the home tome was working for Jack. Radon

CHARLESTON BOLTS; SIGNS WITH HILLDALE
Cooper of Harrisburg With Daisies
Philadelphia, Pa., March 26—Oscar Charleston signed a Hillelide contract yesterday. Charleston is just back from a successful winter season in Cuba. Paws will remember the persevering center fielder as leader of the Harrisonburg Glants the past three years. The Harrisonburg pitcher, also signed a Hillelide contract. Both men will report on April 16. Charleston was ordered to Atlantic City by the Eastern league.
Merven Ryan is making overtures to the management and will again play in the staff, Carr, Mackey and Warbeld, who have been playing winter ball in southern California, are ready to report.
Merven will open the season at Hildale park on Saturday, April 25. The strong Paterson Silk Sox will be the attraction. Phil Cockrell, who is in Augusta, Ga., working out and getting in condition, in the spring, although there is a possible chance that Porter Charleston, the 19-year-old find of last year, will start the game.
"Rockie," the Hildale mascot for Charleston, is promoted to a place among the regulars, and through the coaching of Oscar Charleston and Otto Briggs will soon be seen playing the outfield in many games.
Oscar Mayo is well known to local fans as Hildale's star first baseman from 1912 to 1918. A member of the board of directors, though jolly most of the time, realizes that he will work for co-operation and harmony among the men.

Tuskegee Institute. Ala., March 23.
Tuskegee opened her 1925 southern conference baseball schedule here today by defeating Miles Memorial college, 9 to 0, in the first of a two-game series.
"Ike" Robinson, the football end, who is developing into a fine pitcher, held the Birmingham sluggers to one hit. Riddeaux featured for Tuskegee with a home run and a three-base hit. Brandford of Tuskegee also hit for the circuit.

SECOND ROLAND—Jack rubbied from his curler with elders look at his current stock left in the same way. Rubin forged to lead, but each of them Raymond would be his arm up in a clinch and prevented the castorer from doing any damage to the body. Raymond went to the body and was shorn. Rubin is being put Jack jumped out of the way of the blow. Raymond missed a left. The reformed outboard Raymond, but for what was a key known to him was the last point to Rubin's return to the ball. Raymond came to life and backed Rubin to the ropes, where he was working way on
THIRD ROUND—They touched gloves, laymout put a left to his jabber jaws, jagged his finger and pressed the aggressor. He lauded three blows to the body, taking Rabin in hand and putting his face on Jacks's face. Rabin started his blows all right, but he was not ready to right the law and Jacks was upset. Rabin landed a hard taint and was trying to up at the same time. A right smash to the knee was the result, the rupes as the helm ended the fight. This brought Chicago up to six wins and seven losses. Dave Mauer won his bout in the 75th round, it was the first time he faced a crowd and upset the dope, sending Chicago in the lead by coppling the second division heavyweight scrap and New York evened the score eight all when George Hoffman, national champion U. champ, whipped Wattar Radka.
Sullivan Beats Hutsell
THIRD ROUND—They shook hands and Hutself scored a left to the free. Sullivan handed a left book. Hutself got over anxious and missed a right uppercat. They swapped body blows. Hutself sent a left to the jaw and they climbed. Sullivan put his leg with a hard wallop to Hutself's stomach and then put over a right to the face. Sullivan gained with a left to the head that went Hutself's head back. Sullivan got a left to Hutself's jaw as the Chicagoon backed away. Sullivan missed a right. Hutself took two in the stomach and they were in a chick when the bell rounded ending the fight.
The judges gave the verdict to Sullivan, which brought down a lot of cooling from the gallery gods. However, it is believed if Hutself could have withstood the body panches in the last round and stopped Sullivan's aggressiveness he would have won.

Morehouse Humbles Morris Brown,13 to 6
By F. C. GASSETT
Atlanta, Ga. March 24—Morehouse opened the baseball season Saturday afternoon with a win over the Morris Brewers. For Morris Brown the batting of Alexander, the former city league star, and Jones featured. Alexander accounted for two hits and Jones one. The base running of Alexander and Thompson was spectacular, each man stealing two out of three attempts. The fielding features were the work of players in left field and Mosley on first for Morehouse.

DIXIE DOINGS
BY ERIC ROBERTS
THE southern conference baseball season got under way during the week. Clark was forced to how to Atlanta by a score of 5 to 2, and Morehouse makes it successful. Morehouse made it 14 to 6 in the games played it would seem that Morehouse has the best hitting team of the entire bunch. Clark has nothing like the powerful aggregation that she has with the pitchers in the numbers of that crack machine are now with the Panthers, manely, Cornellus, Toles, Roberts, Robinson and Pappy O'Neal. In the Atlanta Clark game the pitching of Sprungey would apply to the efforts of Toles. We have heard omnious rumblings of the batting strength that Harvey's men possess and now we are about convinced. We are about convinced. We are about Bradley on Saturday, but if he did perform and the Morehouse heavy artillery functioned as well as it did, then we must warn all conference teams to put their best twirlers on the hill when facing the
WITHIN the next few days we expect to have a line on nearly all of the conference teams. Alabama State, who are present conference champions, are back again with practice and first honors last season. The pitching staff of the Staters is said to be the best in the South. Down at Florida A. and M. college Coach Bragg is doing his all to remodel a club that is only remaining luminary on that club is Jubilee Bragg, and possibly L. N. Anderson, who is a fairly good twirler. Talladega has been tossing the apple around for some time, but right now most prospects are at a secret that only the Talladega's know. We have a knight that the board of baseball being played in the conference this year will be inferior to that played in years gone by. This is the result of players on professional and drummers.
WELL, the interfraternal row is over and the sons of Omega are once more resting upon the pedestal of supremacy and the supremacy of the very thrill and all through the series the power of the Kappa and Omega teams asserted itself. So it was with a high degree of excitement and strain that the two men are arrested among the clan watched the deedling game on last Saturday. The Kappa team with Quint Johnson and Traylor on its roster was very dangerous, for these two men are arrested among the clan and perform in tixie. The one thing that the Kappa team did not have, however, was a strong defense. The Omega team with Calibert and Gam to do the ment, and when Wheelee, Hazzard and Baker came into their own as basket slingers it meant defeat for the Kappa charges. The Alpha team two teams possessed, but managed to play a fairly good brand of ball. The Sigma team came back with a rush in the final game and came very near defeating the Alphas in a 23 to
WITH the advent of warm weather the cluder path aspirants are donating their time and energy to places in first order. The Tuskegee reels are only a month away and with their approach the coaches are doing their best to get their enquiries and mentors are planning to send men to the Hampton reels also. So the major meets of the year will all see a chance to meet the mentors of their stuff. Spring athletic endeavor has been slow to get going in Dixieland by the presence of a lingering winter. Warm weather seems to be the most important advantage is being taken to timber up the muscles.

BEATTY AND SNOWDEN STAR IN NORTHWESTERN'S 16TH SCHOLASTIC TRACK MEET
Led by Eugene Beauty, feet-footed youngster of Detroit, who finished in three events after qualifying in four, the Northeastern high school of the Motor City, 16th annual indoor inter-scholastic track and field meet, held Friday and Saturday afternoons in Patten gym.
This had almost single-handed won the meet for his school. Beauty on the Northeastern, aided his team, finished third in the half-mile run, and took fourth place in the 50-yard dash. In winning the high hurdles Beauty equaled the meet record. Lane Snowden, another track flash from Northeastern, aided his team, finished the 50-yard dash. Northeastern amassed a total of 18 points.
An incident in connection with Beatty's record performance stood out as the high light of the meet. Encouraged and told male he gave leaders a race until the last few yards and collapsed as he crossed the finish line in 2:04. Undaunted by this misfortune he returned to the track in less than five minutes to achieve his mark in the hurdles. Not contented with that, he ambled down to the pit and barely missed placing in the shot. His was the most remarkable showing ever made here in the meet. Freibel of Gary, Ind., made an exceptionally strong showing by scoring 10% points to clinch fourth place. O'Brien, star hinder of Freebel, burst Uhuru foot in the yard high hurdles when he seemed an almost winner over Beatty. Beatty managed to win by inches.

With new hope the Omegas gradually cut down the lead, with Whedbee, Hazard and Baker on the offense, while Calvert and Whirlwind were fighting like demons on defense, breaking up pass after pass and many shots were sent away by this ever alert defensive couple.
The score was tied at 30-30. The Omegas took the lead when Calvert manned and a free throw, only to have little. Trailler take the lead again on a field goal. Score 32-31. Whedbee dropped a field goal to take final lead, followed by Hazard and Baker, with a 37-32 victory.

MORGAN WINS FROM LINCOLN UNIVERSITY 5
Clark and Silvera Are the Stars
Baltimore, Md., March 23—Morgan college defeated Lincoln university of Pennsylvania in a spirited game at day evening, 25 to 20. Fifteen hundred fans witnessed the struggle which was one of the best contested games seen in these parts this season, guarding on the part of both teams. Lincoln drew first blood when Silvera stole under the basket and then came down the side line. Then came down the decker. This lead was short lived, however, when Clark and Spencer retaliated with two and one field goal, and until the end of the first half the teams alternated in leading. The first half ended with Lincoln 12, Morgan 11. Morgan came out with blood in her eyes in the second half and soon had Lincoln trailing. Cutie Brown shot one from the center of the court, and Jones followed in quick success with two fouls. Silvera began shooting and brought the score within point of Morgan's lead. At this point, and Clark made one field goal.
With a five point lead Morgan resorted to a freezing game with three minutes to go. By superior passing touch or take the ball from Morgan's possession, Silvera was high scorer for Lincoln with 12 points, while Clark led the Morgan aggregation with nine points. The Morgan college girls defeated the Washington Y. W. C. A. team in the preliminary game.

BASEBALL ON TRIAL; ZERO HOUR ARRIVES
---
Owners Must Go Over Top or Quit
NSEBALL is on trial. In fact it has been on trial for several years, and it must meet its 360 hour
B
Ask any World war
vet what "the zero
house is and he will
tell you."
What we mean by
that is both in the East and West—
fans will know before the season is
beginning—whether there will
be any money or not or
and the reason is clear as crystal.
Some magnates or rather those
apposed to be magnates have helped
to dig their own graves.
Busten a business, but business
men don't always make baseball
men.
Bolden started a war on the west-
ern, league several years ago, and
sought to help other owners in the East offered
diluring salaries to the best players
who jumped.
Hindle profited some, but in doing
sale he hired men who had invested
in baseball. The salaries could not
be met from money taken in at the
gate and had to be met out of savings
from other enterprises, and
conduced them like George Washington
and others were forced out of
the game.
Bolden now says the Eastern league
to joke. We ask him who made it
the joke it is—he was one of its
heads.
The easterners soon realized their predicament and sought an agreement wherein each league respected the other's rules and players' contracts and placed a salary limit on an athlete. Last year in Detroit the East asked for a reduction in both player limit and salary limit. One man objected. He was a westerner, John M. Schorling of Chicago, but the amendment was adopted at the joint session of Congress this year in Harrison, Hillside and the Brooklyn Royal Giants are out of the Eastern league.
Last year the Lincoln Giants were out.
This year they are back.
Bolden withdraws so he can raid clute.
He has smatched the "jumping" Oscar Charleston from the Atlantic City characers about 50 yards ago. Bolden grabbed Warfield from Detroit and caused a break with the West which resulted in a dozen or more western players, including Oscar Charleston of Indianapolis, Strong of the American Giants, Curry of the Monarchs, Wade Johnson of the same club and others to bolt the new organization and go eastward.
All this does baseball little good.
The knocking of the club owner by the other, the squeezing of the same club and others to bolt the schedule making that practically makes it possible for one or two clubs to win the pennant, thus making the other four or six clubs no longer league, therefore baseball is at its zero hour as far as success as a league goes.
Out West it is about the same.
He got out, according to his own words, because St. Louis made a determined effort to "quagree" he and Louis in the Kansas City Monarchs in the schedule making in 1927, making a determined stand to keep the Monarchs out of Chicago as much as possible. St. Louis was able to get some colorful men to move who were new in the business. Those same followers see a different "light of day" this year.
St. Louis in a playoff with the Kansas City Monarchs in 1925 raised L because Tube Foster, the president of the national umphires should be used in the series. Unable to get competent ones of Color, he did the next best thing and sent down two white men from Chicago. Louis fans with one or two owners of the club raised a fury.
The fans attempted to boycott the park. They took the matter to the morning daily paper and the weeklies of the president, etc., but St. Louis didn't realize that the agitation that they themselves started acted as a boo-mering and as a result St. Louis did not draw the crowds to see Kansas and had been—nor do the American Gains draw there like they used to. Nobody is to blame but St. Louis and the management there.
And so it has been all along the line with the possible exception of Chicago and Kansas City and without the methods used by some of our present owners who know very little about any kind of business matters and still less about baseball. Then more, too, matters that should have been straightened out behind closed doors were aired to the public.
Newspaper men, hungry for news and unable to know what should be leased to the public, have printed personal squabbles between owners and now wonder why baseball is almost a dead issue in their home towns as far as a league is concerned. Because owners refused to be shaken down or refused to hand out money attacks have been made on them and owners have become thoroughly disgusted. The Tenny Blount-Foster controversy just about sent Detroit on the rocks as a baseball city and it has been blasted by Blueston, president of the Negro National league, and others to straighten

All these so-called grievances were directed at one man.

That's unfortunate for our baseball. He was an organizer and the police confidence in him. Judge Hinton picks up where Rube left off. No one wants the judge's job because he wants to win. We hope he can straighten out the tangle and get things to working smoothly, but it's one big task.
With the season staring us in the face things look rather dubious. The ball games and baseball towns in the country once. In the first three years that a league club was there Detroit had brought to its owner more money than C. I. L. Tayler had made in his whole lifetime in the business. C. I. got out of a sick bed against the ball and to attend a leaguit meeting and died. His widow tried to carry on where he left off, but couldn't.

Birmingham came, went and is back.
Memphis came in, went out and came back.
Chicago and Kansas City have both been in the game, willing to go along and continue for the good of baseball, but as Bert Williams used to say, "There be some changes made."
Fans have been touted up regarding the games are different now than in 1918.
Writers who can't see farther than their nose point out the salaries of big league clubs—anything for the purpose of an up dissension.
Let's figure a bit.
Kansas City Monarchs have a good ball club. The salary of the club per month is about one-third of what is paid the Kansas City club in the American association.
Why?
Because in one series of five games with Toledo the Kansas City Blues took in $3,500—more money than the New York Yankees than the Chicago White Sox will take in more money at one Sunday game with the New York Yankees than the Chicago owner will make all season at home.
Weekday ball doesn't pay in the league. That means if you don't make it on a Sunday you're out of the league. Some men can't stand what Wilkerson had to contend with last summer—lose money in the league because Kansas to make the season a profitable one. He hit rainy weather in Detroit and then had his club six five days after the season began, naming a uniform right at the start. Then moved over to St. Louis and got less than $1,400 for five days' play. Deduct rail fare from Kansas City and you get $1,100 plus salaries and see for yourself. We have summed the situation up just as it is—think it over and make your own conclusions. The meantime-baseball is on trial.
Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY
Riggins Now With Lincoln Giants Club
New York, March 26—The Lincoln Giants will open their season April 1, although the league race won't start until April 15. John Henry Lloyd, Giant manager, is busy lining up his various prospects for tryouts and many of the fans will be compelled to acquaint themselves with the 1927 season the pitching staff was both erratic and uncertain, while first base was decidedly weak. However, due to the collapse of the Giants, the team on the market, giving Keenan an opportunity to sign Cooper and Gardner, pitchers, with the added addition of receiving an option on Ray Candy, leading shortstop in Eastern circles.
On first base will be Douglas, a sickly man during last season, suffering from an abdominal ailment, has recovered his health. On second base will be Lloyd, but the left side of the field raises the question. There will be three candidates, Canady, Scales and Riggines. Canady is a shortstop only. Scales play short or third while Riggines purchased from the Homestead Grays, is one of the best hot corner guardians in the business.
In the outfield Mason, Gray and Wilson seem to be about the best. Mason, last year's home-run hitter, who drove out 32 Ruthian wallops, is almost sure of his birth.

Then Black got hot under the skin as the rabid fans who were pulling for the St. Paul boxer, he knocked Wrangley to the canvas in the third round.

SNOW, COLD BALK SPRING PRACTICE HERE
SNOW, COLD BALK SPRING PRACTICE HERE
Monday's Storm Halts Am. Giants' Work
HE American Giants started their spring practice last Wednesday and including Sunday, but on Monday there was nothing to ground because the weather man re-
versed his gears and the thermometer dropped from 77 degrees, the warmest March days we've known to have, to a rain, snow and sleet storm.
Consequently Tuesday morning the warm Sunday hadn't thawed out the ice and the grounds were in a frightful condition.
Sunday, Premier Trimble of Princess Anne left his greenhouse business long enough to drop into town, look over some of the players and have a long confab with the "committee of one" Dick Bassett and an old friend. This conference was that the Hon. Mister Jelly signed to play with the American Giants for 1928.
With the hard hitting and fast fielding hardness in camp and Bowie Warner in uniform, Dave Marlarcher and Coach Sam Crawford turned their thoughts to other channels.
As the Giants open Easter Sunday against the Duffy Florals, the team seems to get to working smoothly.
At present it looks as if the outfield will be Swett, Gardner and Davis. An effort is being made to trade Jackson, last year's outfielder and outfielder, for Rogers, the left defender. Marlarker will hold down third, Bobby Williams will play short, with Charlie Williams at second. Jim Brown most likely will play the infield. Back of the plate will be the ever reliable Pythas Russ, who is expected on the scene any day from his Kentucky home. Johnny Hines will have to play the outfield, Johnny, because of his hitting, may be used in the outfield at times, especially if Swett is assigned to the first base job. Marlarker, like Foster, Miller and Jackson, will in form. Rube Currie is still a holdout and may be trued to Cleveland. Marlarker is looking over another good left hand hurler, but won't pass out any information on his hitting. Weather permitting, the regular practice will continue at 11 each morning. The Giants are out for the third game in a row and will be 50 per cent stronger this year than in 1927.
So far McDonald, the underhand ball artist, has not been heard from. He lives in Philadelphia and it is thought that Hildale, the club that quit the Eastern league, has been dickering with him.
The Giants realize they are up against a strong team when they face the Florals on the opening date, but they are prepared to start the season off with a victory.
On April 28 the Cuban Stars with Hooks and a number of new faces in the line-up will appear here in the first 1928 league game.

LANGFORD IS WINNER OVER BERT COLIMA
LANGFORD IS WINNER OVER BERT COLIMA
Chicago Middleweight Fouled by Mexican
Los Angeles, Cal., March 21.—Wolcott Lenglund of Chicago was wounded by Bert Colima, Mexican middleweight, in the fifth round and the bout was awarded to Langford by Referee Holobrow, who had previously warned Colima for hitting low in the same round.
Up to the time of the foul the battle had been waged on even terms. Langford had taken a flop to the canvas in round three for the count so that he forced so many wellops in Colima's bread basket that Bert began to swing wild and hit low.
There was no question as to the foul blow and as a result the state athletic committee suspended Colima for 30 days.
Rematched
The two buxers will be rematched
soon as Collins gets a grandpa.
Collin's suspension is lifted. The Chicago battler has won many friends on the coast by his ability to get and set up a crown to be a proud pleaser and is allways there banging away whether in front or behind. From those at the ringside it was learned that in the fifth Wolcott had taken the play away from the Jexican and was on his way to a victory.

Washington, D. C. March 20. -Although Dr. J. Harden Johnson and Rev. F. I. A. Bennett, members of the board of education, were advised of the improper use of the Wilson Normal school for the holding of meetings to arouse race hatred through the advocacy of restrictive governments, neither of them made any nest at the board meeting Wednesday.
During the meeting the word "tragedy" was frequently used. Specialized morality and intellectually superior to whites of the neighborhood, but nevertheless they were objectionable humanity and can never equal the whites.
The question of publishing the book was the locality who had refused to sign restrictive covenants was argued. The radical element of the organization tarred and feathered. The more soher element insisted that publication of names would be bad strategy, a prospect to those property owners who had not signed restrictive covenants. The covenant which formed the basis for the best form to be used to exclude our people from owning or occupying property in Columbia Heights. Each borderline has a captain and a corps of workers making efforts to secure the signature of the 5 per cent of proprietors of the neighborhood, but refused to sign restrictive covenants.
In 25 blocks all property owners have signed these agreements except 70. An agreement covering a block is not binding until every property owner signs the agreement. The Columbia Heights Citizens' association meets on the second Wednesday night in the auditorium of the Wilson Normal School. Dr. Dr. Johnson and Rev. Bennett were told of the Tuesday night meeting before it was held. Neither of them took any action to stop it. The board meeting Wednesday afternoon they were silent on this meeting.
