"Neck and Neck" Race for Five Cars Ends in Ten Days
It's another big week in the Defender's automobile and cash prize campaign—a week that will eclipse all others so far in the number of subscriptions received. With 9 p. m. Saturday winding up the last of the big votes, a veritable downpour of subscriptions will flood campaign headquarters from contestants who see the necessity for getting in every subscription they possibly can before they

For example, you get only 17,000 votes for every year subscription, but after Sept. 1, you get only 17,000 votes for a yearly subscription. Up to Saturday night, you get $80,000 votes for every 100 votes you get but $80,000 votes. You see from these illustrations that it pays to do big things while you get the greatest number of votes for every vote.

Some idea of how close the Defender's campaign is. Truly it is a "nack and neck" race—and it's going at a fast and faster pace as the end rounds in. Many scores closely bunched, there are scores and scores of others listed among the contestants who could pass anyone in the race if they would win. You can present big vote offer.

NATIONAL
EDITION
Detroit, Mich., Aug. 31.—The situation in Detroit, supposedly the softest spot in the United States for gamblers and racketeers, has become so disgusting to good, capable and honest citizens that organizations, interested in good government, are being formed to drive vice and gambling out of the city. Of the gambling feastery, the policy kings will be fought more vigorously than others, because. It is alleged, policy playing drains more money out of the communities than other forms of gambling combined. The howl against the policy rackets comes from small merchants, professional men, handlers and insurance companies, and pauperizing the communities that there is no money left to support legitimate enterprises. It is alleged that the various policy wheels, averaging a daily play of $10,000.
Ministara Score Policy
Ministers Score Policy
The attention of a West side newspaper, W. Hassaye, has directed its editors' toward a means of achieving the cooperation of business men in working out a plan which will rid the city of W. Hassaye, school children are playing policy with the money given them by their parents to purchase their lunch. After deliberation on part of the policy, through our work in the movement which resulted in a movement stamp out policy playing. The movement was slow because policy had entrenched itself. However, when movements begin they gain in momentum. Several local ministers scored policy playing from their pulpits last Sunday. They have become reconciled to the fact that policy is not only attributable to the movement, but choosing legitimate business to death.
Among the ministers to denounce policy playing were Rev. Robert L. Bradby, pastor of the Second Baptist church, and Rev. Charles Hill, pastor of Macedonia Baptist church; Rev. Charles Hill, pastor of Hartford Ave. Baptist church; Rev. Moody, Rev. J. N. Howell, pastor of St. Stephens A. M. E. church, and Rev. H. J. Stephens A. M. E. church, Rev. Bradby said: "This light must be carried to the city council. It looks as if the police department will not break up these cases, so the city fathers must ask for and encourage to investigate conditions here."
Chicago Gamblers Arrive
According to statistics, one of the leading policy houses took in $120,000 during the month of July. Of this amount, $10,000 was commissions; $10,000 was overhead and graft; $2 to the public in winnings, leaving an operating profit of $79,908 leaving a more modest situation has become more manageable withflux of Chicago gambles, who came here to escape subpoenas in the graft and vice quik which is shaking the business of the gambles establishing. Detroit is disorganized and gambling flourishes openly. The police department seemingly holds the Chicago to suppress its working for Detroit policy houses, but others are completing plans to transfer their gambling interests here, by huge-policy profits, have opened up policy houses. Other syndicates taking advantage of hx conditions, have grown their gambling interests here, where various brands of whiskey are displayed with a recklessness indicative of high police protection. These bootlegging syndicates drain money without giving anything, return.

He Perry Howard ever received or denied Bush's self or anyone else." Dr. Redmond said, "I know nothing of it, but in view of Howard's position relative to such matters in the past, I cannot be sure of that. I have accepted a penny from anyone. I do know it to be a fact that he has always put forth every possible effort conceivable so far as I could discern to see it that the law relating to it was not violated in any way whatsoever."
Not Law Violator

"I have written Judge Holmes," he said, and asked for a speedy trial. "I have no trouble whatever in establishing my innocence within a few minutes." He added that that "I am no burden but a strong advocate of the enforcement of the law."
"In view of the fever heat to which factional politics have been running in Mississippi within the past few years, I am confident that have been engaged in one should not be surprised at anything that happens, unless it be that one side should be heard to declare that it sees something good in the other.

One side of any other is told, and when the real truth about some of the tactics used by the politician is indictment is made known the Spanish inquisition will sound like the doings of a benevolent organization, and the performers will look like pilgrims.

A group of ministers of the Congregational, church, who are taking special courses at the University of Chicago, on a tour of the city paid a visit to The Chicago Defender Thursday. The party was under the leadership of the late Rayley, pastor of the Michigan Congregational church, and Prof. C. T. Holman of the University of Chicago. They were received by Robert S. Abbott, editor and publisher of the Defender, who in the course of a sort of informal forum answered questions from the audience. Among them was the query of the Rev. C. R. Stauffer, Atlanta, Ga., who wished to know the editor's views on the matter, so believing in full equality, both civil, replied Mr. Abbott. "This method, if used in the South, would protect the malattio offspring, who had suffered serious problems. As Queen Victoria once said. 'Each child must share equal rights and freedom of father's under the British flag.'"
Mr. Abbott related something of the history of the growth of the school to further questions. He was complimented upon the flourishing organization which he had developed and supported, and expressed surprise at the manyployes working harmoniously together. The following ministers were in the party: Rev. Marion H. W. Williams, Burlington, Iowa; Dr. and Dr. James B. Beck, LaPaz, Holly St. Patrick, Bexhill, North America; Dr. and Dr. Princeton, Ind.; A.

"I wish to thank you for the courtesy shown myself and members of the office on the occasion of our visit Wednesday at the University of Defender. The group was small but widely representative. There were pastors of some of the larger churches in the South as well as in Canada, in the United States and in Canada, South America and Australia. Our visit was not prompted by curiosity, but by a desire to learn about the achievements and achievements of our Negro friends, and to learn what they are doing and thinking.
"We recognize that there is much knowledge and prejudice among white folks when we work with goodwill and co-operation are to be achieved. The first step is understanding. And it was as an aid to understanding that this visit was helpful. We deeply appreciate your help."

MONUMENT TO MOTHER LEE IS UNVEILED
Friends Pay Tribute to Noble Life
(Photo on Picture Page)
Mother Lee's children gathered at Lincoln cemetery Sunday, morning to meet her, which he gifted her memory. These children of her adoption, coming from far and near, were representative in only a small way of the great love, honor and devotion merits and of her endless good deeds which won the honored name of "mother" to all who came under her beneficent influence.
When it was learned that such a man was gifted by her daughter and so gave Lee Lee Wimp and Captain Bengee Lee Wimp and Captain Bengee Lee, others asked for the privilege of manifesting in this individual manner the esteem which they hold the memory of Henrietta P. Lee—lover of humanity.
Ella G. Berry Speaks
Shortly before scheduled time, a uniformed escort from the Knights and Daughters of Tabor, in which she was a rank, arrived captained by Mrs. Ellen Mayes. Two young girls of the juvenile department were milds. Caremonies began with the arrival of Mrs. Mayes, Berry, head of the Daughter Elks of the World. With her were Mrs. Susie B. Williams, Richmond. Va.; Mrs. Francis Young, Hampton, Va.; Mrs. Jennie Betts of Pennsylvania. Mrs. Margaret Banks, who presided the mistress of caremonies. Mrs. Maye E. Irvine, in her beloved character of Mother Lee," said Mrs. Irvine. "This wonderful woman indeed lived up to the principles. The child would hand and love overflowing with charity and love."
"We are gathered here to pay a deep tribute to one who has fallen in life's battle." Mrs. Berry said. "Since our lives are not measured by the number of years, but by the amount of time we have lived, who would not render to the memory of this good woman all the honor to which she is entitled. In this life
she erected her own monument. All who knew her can remember some time when she grasped their hand and tried to emulate the virtues, the ambitions, the deeds of this noble character who was sent by God." Mrs. Hattie Hill of Unique temple, the oldest church years, said in her ecology: "Daughter Lee was loved by all who knew her. She was ready to give encouragement at all times and in the dark; she is gone, but her memory lingers."
All Pay Tribute
Others who paid verbal tribute were R. T. Mays of the Internation- order of Twelve; Mrs. Pearl Shiloh and Miss Rhoda H. Johnson, Quincy, Ill. Among the fraternal affiliations which honored Mrs. Lee with high offices during her life time were the International Order of Twelve, the International Order of Twelve, Sinai Tabernacle, the Court of Calantha and the Elks. For her faithful and untiring service to this body she was born in 1920, 3920 South parkway, where a life sized painting of Mother Lee hangs on the walls. She besides the immediate family, were present at the ceremonies.
BOY,PLAYING WITH REVOLVER KILLS COUSIN
While playing in his Monday morning, Dennis Brown, 15 years old, 55 E. 21st St., seized an revolver and fatally shot his 8-year-old cousin, Felix Harmon, 340 Calumet University, the same day; another boy known as James was also visiting the Brown boy and was the only witness to the shooting. He is sought by Officers Samuel Black and Wright of the Stanton Ave. station. Tenants in the building who heard the commotion maintained that they reached the scene they found Brown batting the unconscious boy. He was taken to Provident hospital and spent two hours later at the county hospital. Questioned at the station, the Brown boy maintained that the three bullets were in the chamber of the gun and he was trying to show his cousin how he could revolve the gun and he was trying to point and pull the trigger in safety.
"I was in the kitchen," he explained, "and my cousin was on the back porch. I fixed the gun like I was going to shoot it. The trigger to show him it wouldn't shoot. But the chamber turned quickly onto a bullet and the gun went off. I didn't mean to shoot him and we had no argument at all. We were all in shock and candy." Brown declared. He was turned over to the juvenile authorities.

Daughter Elks from here, there and everywhere are swarming about in Chicago arrayed in the many color schemes, color scheme and lending charm and spirit to the picturesque spectacle formed by American's Elkdom now in annual session.
Mrs. Emma, V. Kelley, supreme manager of the first temple at Norfolk, Van is sniffing a continuous round of greetings to the throngs of followers constantly, pressuring around as she goes about her official duties as grand custodian.
At registration headquarters, 3140 Indiana Ave. dissatisfaction was expressed by the housing committee at the small number of delegates rosters of public vehicles were blamed for piloting the visitors to various quarters. Scores of housekeepers who made plans to accommodate a number of delegates were unable to
In many quarters the banner of Ella G. Berry, now in her second year, is a symbol of floating high and waving vigorously. The sign of Abble M. Johnson, vice president of the phi phi. Fa., is held aloft by her supporters and rumors are affoort that the fight was on for the right to don a helmet and wield the scepter ever 300 temples.
Mrs. Berry'a Platform
"I'm running on my past record, that's my platform," declared Mrs. Berry, who has been in fraternal support of the child welfare program, the advancement of the educational campaign and the introduction of a new program of activities and serving as their medium of expression, were cited as tangible efforts of her administration. Mrs. Berry, a state home visitor, prettily deepened her interest in child welfare work, she said. "Deal with the children, and moreover, educate the boy and girl—that is my aim, whether in office or out," she added. In some cases of the Great Depression of Elks, 1962 S. Michigan Ave. Mrs. Berry and her staff are the centers of interest on the main floor. Above and below, the children are involved in and dance during the day and night.
A large banner announces the headquarters of Mrs. Johnson, at 3925 South Pointe Street, with friends and booths steadily coming and going. Here Tuesday evening a group of women were holding a preliminary campaign. "We have indorsed Daughter Johnson, and we are ready to man," but now is the time to reaffirm our decision. You know some of us change so often. I want to know once again just how many are with us. I want to know how many are by waving hands, signaled intentions. "I feel that my record of continuous and ardent service with this organization since 1613 justifies my ambition," said Mrs. Johnson. "I am proud that the grand room could be housed in one room. I am in the fight fairly."
Mrs. Johnson Tella Aims
Among things pointed out by Mrs. Johnson during her service with the order was her organization of more than 100 women forming of a female band and the faithful co-operation with every forward movement. If elected her pro-grams, she would indigenate members, full co-operation with the educational program of the Elks and a more efficient means of assisting these less-assisted, she asserted, Mrs. Johnson organized the Phyllis Wheaty temple, the first in Philadelphia. That temple began megaphoning dances with brother and sisterly joy lodges close behind, whipped it up for their home-town delegate. Unconfirmed reports told of a third candidate as unknown who might split the vote.
And the parade, which for many visitors is the beginning and ending of the parade, all sides the women marchers were praised for making a better showing for dignity and uniformity than ever before. And the sight of the weaker sex on exhibition (and there are many), there was the admission that Tuesday's demonstration made the best of the
Last to organize but one of the prettiest sights was the white flowered float bearing the members of the crew, who drew behind it in miniature chariot in which sat a tiny baby girl, emulmatic of the youth of the body. This temple is the first to purchase a bird, a monkey, a bird, Bird. Mrs. Bess Martin, wife of James Martin, exiled ruler of Ft. Dearborn lodge, is head of the body.

High Lights of Convention
BV WARREN BROWN
Chicago has given her all to the thousands of delegates and visitors over the world to participate in the 29th annual session of the Improved, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, held at the Wendell Phillips high school. A welcome such as has not been seen in many years was extended the fraternal body to the city which has been the largest in their capital. The boulevards and principal streets of the South side are draped with flags, stars and banners of the nation and the Elks. Store keepers and the little candy venders in the streets have decorated their stands and places of business with the Elks' colors. In the windows of apartments are flags displayed in the street. Five years ago the city gave this body the greatest welcome they had ever known, but this week the demotion has excelled those of all time.
As early as Friday motorists and chartered buses began their march on the city. To the delegations it was necessary that the entertainment committee has been active in preventing any raiding of prices during the convention. The police being given the help of a password to the hospitalities of the city. On Monday afternoon some of the outstanding men and women of the country mingled and rubbed shoulders with delegates from obscure towns at a public reception at the University of Chicago, jurists, councilmen, a member of the United States department of justice, a candidate for a seat in congress, a secretary of a city, police department, a member of professional and business men.
Conspicuous among the, assembly which took part in the fellowship meeting were Arthur Higgs of Cincinnati, Louis, Mo., who were members of the first lodge set up by the founder of Elkdom, B. F. Howard of Cincinnati, Ohio. Attention also focused on Chu Wong, the great ruler of China. He now lives in New York City and is an active member of the imperial lodge of that city. Recently he was the mayor of Washington, W. H. $800 towards securing a new clubhouse. Others who were given the spotlight Jackson, recently nominated as a Republican candidate for the state assembly of Ohio, and almost certain to win the election; Perry W. Howard Washington, John H. Webb, Denver, Colt, Neval H. Thomas, militant leader of Washington, D. C; Atty, John Roundtree of Cleveland, Ohio; Ben Dath of Atlanta, Ga., Dr. Diggs of Detroit, Mich., and Atty, Chester K. Gillepie of Cleveland.
To supplement the welcome at the school, the local lodges, Fort Dearborn, Great Glen, and Fort Dearborn doors, the entertainment of the visitors. On the beautiful lawn of the Fort Dearborn lodge is a tea garden such as one eyes on the leading boulevards of Paris.
Under a large canvas are tables for joy light lunches and soft drinks. Music is furnished by an orchestra and a canvas spread on the grass makes arrangements, illuminate the place in the evening in a fashionable and striking manner. Similar places on a less arranged, even seen here and there on the parkway.

DOWN IN GEORGIA
Since the state of Georgia, with its more than a million persons, maintains but three schools to take care of this large group, while there are numerous schools for white Georgians, which admit foreigners and members of all other races, citizens have now concluded that Georgia does want mixed schools. The argument goes that if Georgia really wanted separate schools, she would provide enough of them to take care of her citizens, so that they would be satisfied. They argue further that the schools that they are all half the size are encouraging her darter citizens to demand entrance, and they plan to do that. They say that to good citizens they needlessly, therefore they are going to take steps to remedy this situation.

Intolerant Conditions in Jail Warrant Probe
Nick, a Greek, is under arrest for the brutal slaying of an enemy in a gang war. Jim, who possesses a black skin, is under arrest for an alleged attack on a police officer, are known in the case of Nick, the prisoner is assigned to a cell block and allowed all the privileges of the penal institution situated within the prison. On the other hand, is delegated to a later cell block where all the inmates possess dark skins. He is fed separately, away from Nick. Him and his companions are of exile from the prison, are different from the prisoner classified as white. After a long wait, during which he has suffered the intolerant measures of the institutions, Jim is released, a week later, to warrants vanced to warrant a tail sentence.
There are many similar cases occurring daily in the penal institutions of Chicago. The only opportunity the inmates have to rehabilitate institutions is through prison against the methods of discrimination and segregation which are inogue in the jails. A campaign must be launched to prevent these ten rules now governing these institutions where prisoners are not only punished for their offenses against society, but are severely disciplined. The prison system is continuing of such a system of injustice can only be accomplished by the concerted efforts of the citizens for a probe into conditions now exacerbated by the taxpayers' sustained by the taxpayers'.

WILSON TO HEAD ELKS FOR HIS SEVENTH TERM
At the conclusion of his annual report Tuesday night, J. Finley Wilson was re-elected by acclamation grand exalted ruler of the Elks for the seventh consecutive term. The rules were suspended in order that this action might be taken.
His election at the evening session on the opening day as well as for a seventh term, sets a precedent. His re-election, Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson stated, carried with it the reappointment of Perry W. Howard as grand legal adviser.
The chief proposal in the annual report of the grand exalted ruler was the establishment of a fidelity fund. This proposition he has favored ever since his election in Newark, N. J., in 1922. After the election Judge Francis Carrell extended greetings to the professional Protestant Order of Elks (white). Past Grand Exalted Ruler Armond W. Scott responded.
Note-This is Young Folks' week.
Dear Princess: I am a girl of 17 and I am in love with a boy of 20. We are true to each other and he believens me the truth, yet when we go to dances together, he sits like some one in a trance and watches me. When we love him, we love him. When I say I do, he does not believe me. How can I prove I love him? I do not believe it. I don't feel well.
When love is young, and lovers are young, isn't nature grand? It seems that love is not grand, and the years come so many cruel changes. The illusion of youth become the disillusion of youth, and the years are undiscovered territory. There is a peculiar, and fascinating, mystery of love. You can see so serious and so disturbing now, that you wonder how so tangled a problem can ever be solved. Well, little girl, you wonder how to solve an interior love complex. He believes that you love him, and then he wants you to love him, and then every man wants what the other man already possesses. He feels that there is chance for some other boy to love you, and you ask him nothings (but so sweet) into your ear. He fears that he will lose you to some girl, and you ask you over and over, what he knows is true, just to hour you say it. Oh, guess, he only proof you can give the loveseek to you on telling him that he is the only one.
The one great trouble with youth is the inability to do anything but find the time to do it. The entire universe and all of the inhabitants have flaws in them. The girl and boy of today spend most of their time alone, and most be both lionen and patient with them. They are only babes in the wood, and need the guidance and guidance of a mentor to help them ambitious desires. To work is to achieve. It seems advisable that you lose a year, at this time, trying to complete your education, then for you

Statement to Ministers
Nashville, Tenn., Aug. 31.-President, J. Edmond Wood of the Nation Baptist convention of America has authorized a statement for the benefit of the messengers and dependent members of their family to the National Bautist convention of America which convenes in Shreveport, La., Sept. 5.
President Wood says: "Those messengers who are are ministers who are not favored with the identification railroad certificates may purchase tickets on their clergy book through to Shreveport, La... The convention opens Sept. 5 for five days. The dependent members of their family who are not ordained ministers and who do not have railroad certificates from the commission the reduced rates, are requested to purchase straight fare ticket to Shreveport and at the time of purchase get a receipt from the railroad agent for the amount paid. An effort will be put forth to get the reduced rates for these statements due to the fact that no many committees have not been favored with the railroad identification certificates entitling them to them one and one half fare for the round trip authorized by the passenger associations of the United States.
HOW TO KEEP WELL
There are two processes continually taking place in your body. One is the building up of your BONE, BLOOD, NERVE and TISSUE. the other is the carrying off of the waste matter and impurities. For every ounce of food you eat or liquid you drink, there is almost an ounce of waste matter that should be eliminated by the way of your KIDNEYS and BOWELS. If your LIVER and KIDNEYS fall to do their duty, portions of this waste matter remain in your stomach and intestines where they ferment, sour and decay, causing INDIGESTION, SOUR STOMACH, KIDNEY TROUBLE, etc. These impurities are also taken up by your blood and carried to all parts of your system, causing a general run-down condition and IMPURE BLOOD.

The Depender's MOVIE and STAGE DEPARTMENT
PART I—PAGE 6
Johnny Hudgins, the international comedy star, who is acclaimed the winner of the Academy Award as the greatest exponent of comedy in America, will join Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds of 1928" at the Liberty Theater in New York. Hudgins returned to America only a few weeks ago after a triumphant tour of the European capitals, where he was honored with the infinitable ministry for several years. Contracts already signed were during his career as a successor to the made there last year, but Lew Leslie prevailed upon him to join "Blackbirds," this marks an appearance in a Broadway production.
...
Probably the best pantomime artist on the stage today. Hudgins during his star at the Abenddancers in the Arena of Wiesbaden and Prince of Wales, the late king of Roumania, the king of Spain and Prince Canal Roumania, the king of the European Americas notable. The Prince of Wales was so struck by his mimic artistry and his funny dance but that he himself was where Hudgins personally taught him the intricacies of the Charleston. Hudgins first came to the attention of the public in 1910 when Leslie costumed him with the late Florence Mills in the original London production of "Blackbirds" last year. Hudgins will offer several pantomime specialties in the current Blackbirds, including "A Tale of the Blackbird," a slow-motion picture conception of a man skating, and his conception of an imaginable dance partner in a slow-motion picture eventually created by the late Burt Willingham.
In adding Johnny Hudgins to "blackbirds of 1928" Lowie is less likely to be "blackbirds" is conceded to be the biggest success of any revue that has ever played on Broadway. Wise man reaches the hit proportions that this one has. And yet Lowie Leslie, always ready to defy traditions, adds a tow-around in a show Hudgins in a show already packed with outstanding stars in the world of our theater, such as Adelaide Hall, Robinson, Aida Ward and Tim Moore.
"In his line," said Lew Leslie, "Johnny Hudgins is the peer. I wanted him originally for my production of "Blackbirds of 1828," but he precluded the possibility of his coming to New York. Now that he is here I cannot permit him to return to London, even though it is at a tremendous expense to me. "Blackbirds of 1828" time. With Johnny Hudgins it will be the great show that has ever been staged anywhere."

The popular Grand theater in Chicago opened last week and with Clarence Jones' superb orchestra and Joe Good's good orchestra I am in need to the Grand and with this unit of Jones' we expect to see the house boom. We expect to see the class orchestra to ever play this. This writer with his unit of musicians played the Grand for nearly 14 years and to discontinue the favorite one in the community. Three years ago the house passed from the hands of W. A. Johnston and the new owner to the discontinue orchestra of the house.

The Regal is set and business is too and the Grand with this most wonderful music of Jones' Son of Billy business. Good music is half the battle.
The Musicians union in Chicago has called a midnight meeting of the membership to assemble next week to discuss the situation on the South side. Conditions are bad in the theater, many of them have dispensed with their orchestra and it is the intention of the group to have the true facts in the case and the unfairness certain theatrical promoters are hopping on the community music scene, and always had dine orchestra in them and the proprietors have always recognized the fact that music was their chief asset and that it was what the owners have gone from the district and the newcomers seem to think that they can run the houses with canned music and two or three musicians. It is now in their hands. In the meantime we are watchfully waiting.

THE TWO WEEKS' NOTICE
I have become hungry to write on this subject, "The Two Weeks' Notice," in our union federation, we will give for the giving of two weeks' notice by either contractor, male men or employee one another; that is if no waiver of the two weeks' notice is incorporated in it or not. There are many reasons why this arrangement is a good one. It keeps the union in the pink of condition. It makes the musicians Dave Peyton

Any one of them will have a few weeks' notice has shortcomings in ability, or they haven't got the ambition to hustle for themselves. The fellow who wants to do as he thinks he can under disciplinary rules and is short in real ability to hold the job is the very one who would see the two musicians abolished and a seasonal contract given to a individual member. The wise minds of the Federation of Musicians have looked into every phase of this matter and have decreed that the two weeks
The Free Writer
One of the "goldy" Chicago musicians has seen fit to make an attack column his remarks were summarily covered. It is a funny thing that the fellow who is a rank failure is ally to ony, who has in no way to tolerate malicious chatter due to studious ambition and go-forwardness. Evil never laughs in stock. You only become laughing stock when you stand to slander a success. The only thing to this free writer's credit in the music business is that he has been a musician. In vain and the musical bunch pay no attention to him. Several years ago ago music went back on this gentleman's banner for our Uncle Sam. If we have real ability as musicians we can always find work and perpetuate our music about holding a job or have fear of a two weeks' notice. This free writer can only work for one person, only when no one else is available.

Monarch Band Hits
We can feel proud of the Monarch hand and its leader, Fred Simpson. They are abreast of the times. They are the art. In the tuba section were six great master instruments wonderfully handled by the players. In the reed section the instruments were all in the most of our hands. The cornet section was excellent. In fact the entire unit was super perfect. This band was brought to the Savoy by he is one man in our community who should be praised. He is quite liberal. He thinks the best is none too good for the Savoy patrons he is bringing to high class before bringing high class famous orchestral attractions to the Savoy. We should all support Mr. Fagin.

We congratulate him on the enormous expenditure he is bringing to this famous Monarch hand and Savoy for the delight of the community.

SISSLE BIG IN PARIS
Paris, France—Noble Sisle, whose band is now the talk of the European social colony, is featured as both orchestra conductor and player in 1925. Sisle opened with his band on July 5 and has been nothing short of a sensation since that time. He is now doing his familiar song speciality in the show, and scored one of the biggest, if not the biggest hit ever witnessed at this place.
Sissle, known as the "ace of reconciliation," will remain here indefinitely, and will no doubt get a chance to have a "battle of music" with the famous Ted Lewis when he opens here on Aug. 25.
Well, Dusty, your brother, "Kid" Brown, is anxious that you write him.
James Tarvel of the team of World and Tarvel, is very anxious to get in touch with his daughter. He can be at the same time the owners should be prepared for these things. The poor performer is the one who really suffers. Stay out of these pauper shows with nervy owners who do no care whether you live or die.

A real nice letter from my old friend, Josephine Leggett. Of course she is now Mrs. Mack. Living in well, she is in the shirt and some reason Joe forgot to tell us just where she was living in Charleston. A direct address is really needed. Well, Franklin, old pal, certainly well. She is in the shirt and around this spot is being gobbled off by the Majestic circuit and of course I know you want a real clean-cut fellow like yourself, therefore I can’t get around this spot.

PERFORMERS: BEWARE
It would be wise for performers to beware of show owners who have no backing and cannot produce the show. They are not good at it. It is much better to stay at home and get yourselves a job than to get out with irresponsible persons and get into trouble. We do not means of making it living otherwise. We are behind the show and what their resources are before you sign. There have been too many of their strands. We need to help for help have been many. Of course there are many reasons why shows strand. They get bad bookings, they are not well known at the same time the owners should be prepared for these things. The poor performer is the one who really suffers. They are not the pauper with their own owners and do not care whether you live or die.

Bordentown, N. J., Aug. 31.—Edgar G. Brown climaxed a week of unprecedented tennis upsets here Sunday when he scored a super five-set victory over Theodore (Ted) Thompson, 1927 national singles champion, in the brilliant 12th national championships of the American Tennis association that witnessed resounding defeats of veteran stars and the crowning of new heads in four of the six championship events.
The cool, deliberate St. Louisan, champion in 1922 and 1923, hammered his winning way to the finals and earned his title from the colorful Thompson, kingpin of the courts in 1923 and 1927, with consummate tennis, winning 3-6, 6-4, 6-1, 2-6, 6-2.
Four former men's singles champions, all spectacular performers at the net, opposed each other in the titular match in the men's doubles when Scatch and Sylvester South of New York city and Amber, Pi., respectively, staged a dazzling uphill struggle to prevail over Tally Holmes and Ted Thompson and supplant the Washingtonians as national men's doubles champions, 3-6, 2-6, 6-3, 6-3, 7-5.

Bill Jeffries, the Chicago speed king, carried off first place in both of the five-mile special races and came very near to winning the 40-
Lulu Ballard stroked her way to another women's singles title over Isadore Channels, 8-7, 6-2, after eliminating her most dangerous rivals and townslady, Ora Washington, in the semifinals, 5-7, 6-2, 6-1.
Reginald Weir, New York city, won the junior singles from young Alfred Walker of Baltimore, 6-1, 6-4.
Misses Ballard and Washington retained their women's doubles title without much trouble from Eunice Brown, Winton, N. C, and Mrs. Lotte B. Wade, New York city, in the finals, winning 6-2, 6-2.
Mixed doubles event was won by Blanche Winston and Will Kean, who beat Mr. and Mrs. B. W. Wilson of Boston, 6-2, 6-3. Miss Winston, an Atlantic League copa-tennis champion, won the women's doubles of New Rochelle, N. Y., who did not enter the nationals this summer.
There were 126 entries in the men's singles, 82 in the women's singles, and the women's doubles, 15 in the mixed doubles and 14 in the junior singles, for a grand total of 263 entrants. We were limited to play in two events.
J. L. McGriff, Portsmouth, Va., who was elected to the presidency of the United States, led the creeding Dr. Henry S. McCard, Baltimore, now president emeritus, played perhaps in the greatest singles match of the century, carried Salute to three sets in the quarterfinals before admitting defeat. Edgar Brown was in splendid form, and he played many years, when he took the court against Ted Thompson in the men's doubles, many years, there, of course. But he stormed the net to volley—and with crispness and finish. Thompson was eliciting with terrific speed and effectiveness and volleying in a thoroughly angular man, in a powerful competition. Brown's spectacular triumph over his conqueror in the New York Open champion and last year's runner-up in the semifinals by the score of 10-10, 4-6, 5-7, 6-2, was his greatest victory in his journey to the final goal.
Thompson was playing with bewildering change of pace, showing a bewildering change of court generalship. He droped the first game to Brown on his service and then through Brown's in the second game. Then a downpour made it impossible to play any more on Saturday. Sun-shining this match, and the men's doubles final was completed. Again, both players were in rare form. Brown was trailing, 2-1, in the second set, pulled to 3-2 and then won the set. In the third set, Thompson proceeded to win the first game of the third set at love on Brown's service. He proceeded to win the first six games and set to Brown, 6-1.
The fourth set, which Thompson won, 6-2, mainly by skillful change, and the fifth set, which Thompson and accurate jubbling thru drive Brown from the net, was featured by a commendable example of sportsmanship on Brown's return. Thompson ran far out of court to return a difficult shot, he slipped in the mud of the unused field, and he scored the point with ease, but elected to lob high, giving Teof a chance to recover and return the ball. To show his skill, Brown scored during the ensuing rally. On the same courts in 1925 when Thompson smothered Brown in a historic semifinal match and then scored both players at that time demonstrated the same fine traditions of the game.
Brown was sensing victory in the game, and Brown drove through for the set and championship, 6-2. The final score was 3-6, 4-6, 4-1, 2-6, 6-2.

Buckner Is First in 40 Mile Derby
Charles Wiggins of Indianapolis carried back the first place prize money in the Elks' dirt track automobile derby at Robey Sunday, when he nosed out Bill Carson of Chicago in the 40-mile race. Bill Jeffries, the Chicago speed king, carried off first place in both of the five-mile special races and came very near to winning the 40-mile grind, which he was leading. He was also turned and Jeffries was thrown into the weeds and the car overturned. Jeffries received a fractured leg and internal injuries. He was still smiling and picked up and rushed to the hospital. After the race narrowed down to a fight between Bill Carson and Wiggins, he picked up and rushed the 88th mile and although there only a minute Wiggins lapped him. Wiggins got the checkered flag, but a disastrous crash on others drove Wiggins won the race. The time was given out as 35:25. Engine trouble forced many of the disastrous pit bites the race was half finished.

Weir Is Surprise of the 1928 National Net Play
The modern, scientific top-spin driving game of tennis, has arrived. The American Tennis association has turned the corner to the right. In only a decade or so, our tennis players must hit Hills. Cannot America again capture the Davis cup by the superdrives of some brownskin younger players, withstand the sun's burning rays? For the first time in the history of Colored tennis, all the best matches of the championships last week on the clay courts of the Bordentown Industrial school, where the roar of Atlantic City, were those in which ambitious youngsters demonstrated their intelligence and driving example of the world's greatest players—Tladen, La Coche, Cochet, etc. They didn't all win, for only one tournament.
A fine exhibition of the modern, scientific, all-court, top-spin driving school, all-court, top-spin driving school, 17-year-old sophomore of New York university. This young man was proud of his partnership by his mastery of the forehand and backhand drives, supported by a sound net game. He was proud of his return of his opponent after his perfectly placed, fast-driven forcing shot often opened up half the court, and was proud of his membership, excepting possibly Hudlin and "Piner" Brown, who made a great contribution to these boys learn how to volley like Ted Thompson, with a deadly overhead like H. Giraham, the University of Chicago driver at the air track service after fashion in of A. M. Stocks, the youthful mentor of the Pacific const, they will be ready to
Young Duncan of Indianapolis in his first round match outplayed Ted Williams and thundering forhand cross-courses, but his failure to appreciate the value of winning one's service who knows, perhaps a championship. His physical condition, could be imminent, by fewer trips to New York on days preceding important matches. Macon Hill of Indianapolis could win by driving to make openings for his advance to the net. H. Graham of Cleveland demonstrated the soundness of his driving to have fought to one set victory over Richard Hudlin, who was at the top of his speed stroking. A little more consideration on the part of the schedule clerk might have avoided Graham's being forced to play a long hour after such an ardous ordure. J. M. Stocka, Los Angeles, defeated the champion of Vivianne and Sol Wieder, the New Jersey flash, playing against doctor's orders. Stocka beat Ted Williams in finals and might have won the match he realized he was being rushed. He should have taken his rest and stopped when it got dark.
Allison Davis, the Baltimore drive-in star, took look in Dr. Sylvester Smith and his not name. He also heat the red-doubtable Kenneth Worde in the first round of the stolling game with Talley Holmes not only failed to come back but tell before H. A. Kean that he absolutely through. He did better in the doubles with Ted Thompson, but as a single player he was absolutely through. He did better in the doubles with heat John Wilterson, his old rival, decisively, and in spite of his young Salch he was not much as a volleyer when up against the real

There was not a single woman with the game. Miss Ballard, the champion, many of us hoped to see learn to drive, as satisfied to win by the contestant we had seemed to be able to either, toward advancing the game or her personal improvement. Miss Channels got to play the game, and her old class game. Miss Gethish, Mrs. Leonard, Mrs. Wade, Miss Eunice Brown and Mrs. Washington were all out game. None of them have a real understanding of book tennis.
The tournament officials are still rather eager to suggestions from anyone who wants to make them made by posting matches, which were to be played as the courts be saved the contestants from subjecting themselves to the likelihood of being humiliated if they dared to pose the police inquiry as to modus operandi.

WILEY OPENS SEASON ON SEPT.21 AGAINST JARVIS
Marshall, Tex. Aug. 27. The Wiley Wildcats will have their initial footing on Monday, Sept. 3, under the veteran coach Fred Long, and his assistant, Melvin B. Tolson. The Cats face the local institution, it games being cured between Sept. 21 and Thanksgiving day. The game with Javine station on Sept. 21 comes exactly one week after opening of school, therefore Long has found it necessary to before the beginning of the school term.
The championship Wiley eleven of 1927 has lost Miller, Lorden and Wilk, one of the best backs in the conference for the last three years, may not be able to play again on account of the injury of his most important Thanksgiving day. Early this summer the injured member was giving Big Ben loads of trouble and he landed in his position much doubt is expressed as to the possibility of the Willis speedmeter in this neck of the war.
The passing of this backfield, w.jich has served Wiley for three years. Coach Long will change his style play. With Scott, Miller and Lorden gone, the perfect interference for the backfield will be less effective. The only letter men who remain to fill the vacancies in the backfield are Reynolds, the assistant coach, and Marshall the "white streak" run Marshall Reynolds' work was highly sensational last fall, his plunging and open field running being second to
Exum, the Gary, Ind. high school star has expressed his intention to play in Houston high quarterback, is being boosted by many as the successors to the job-hat year filled capably by Brooks and Gray, a Marshall product, are also possible players. Many have also given Long and Tolson plenty of work. "Chief" Kinnon is the only known loss in the line. Parental objections have been raised by the lacrosse linemen, Capt. Lewis Reed and Dudley Reed will be on hand for the opening practice. Nothing has been said about Briggs, but they are expected early. "Goo Goo" Livingston, now with the Kansas City Monarchs, is expected to start the starter expecting to play right end for the Wildcats will be sorely disappointed.UNC is a range end from Shreveport to give the veteran Livingston a run for that position. "Mart" Smith is the initial player.
When asked of his possibilities of repeating this year, Coach Long said he would be the president of Reed, Reed and Livingston assure that. Our big question mark will be the backfield. Reynolds will have his best year. He is in charge and is our coach. Nike Exum and Davis are as good as reports say, we should not be so terribly bad off when we remember the young backfield men from last year. We should so confidently predict the outcome of this football season."
The Wiley schedule is as follows: Sept. 11, Jarvis at Marshall; Oct. 6, Texas at Marshall; Oct. 10, Houston at Marshall; Oct. 15, Lengston at Dallas; Oct. 20, Sam Huston at Marshall; Oct. 26, Texas at Tiger; Oct. 27, Texas at Tiger; Nov. 5, Philander Smith at Little Rock; Nov. 12, Paul Quinn at Marshall; Nov. 17, Lincoln, Mo. at Kansas City; Nov. 23, Printer View at Marshall; Nov. 29, Bishop at Marshall (Bishop field).
