DEFY POLICE IN CLEAN-UP OF DETROIT
Racketeers Unafraid of Law Action
Detroit, Mich., Dec. 21.—In support of the revolt on the part of the leaders against the policy game, which they consider as "one of the most deleterious influences confronting Detroit, members of the black hand squad, under Inspector Robert MacPherson, have launched a smashing offensive against the small operator. More than 120 arrests have been made during the bombardment.
However, "big shots" in the policy racket, who are on the inside, have been standing at ease for more than a decade without the reach in the resolution approved by the Interdenominational Ministers union, a desire was expressed for a grand jury probe as the only effective means of pilling the capacity of smiling noisy activity. And the policy kings are thoroughly alarmed this time. They realize that Chicago racketeers secured for cover when Chief Justice John Roberts and summoned the attorney general to take charge in the vice and graft probe, which shook the foundation of Chicago's underworld. They know that civic leaders mean business this
Players Hit System
It is alleged that the trouble started when the Hollywood policy house, controlled by white gamblers, failed to pay off a hit of "over $3,000. The two men who were involved as follows: Five dollars on each of two horses (four numbers) and $1 on each of two rings (three number rows) and caught all of the numbers in the game, claiming an inside fraud. The enraged player, after approaching the operator on numerous occasions, took the case up with a downtown attorney, which resulted in the call to the attention of the press. Some of the big operators blame the little fellows for the policy war. The claim that small operators have by crooked drawings. One "big shot" said, "It's the little fellow who is hurting policy. Everywhere I see one operating I am going to turn him in." The degree punishment during the past week, but he does not intend to be made the goat. In view of the fact that landlords are unable to collect rent, merchants and women and children are robbed of the actual necessities of life, many civic leaders downtown are giving out expressions on the gambling slot. The police calls the policy, racketeers consciousness robbers, and says of the players, "The virus of thinking they can get a killing is rapidly destroying the community. It is only a step to crime from such conditions." The East Central Detroit Improvement association, under J. R. Peltier, also expresses a determination to drive gambling out of certain district.
Fear Switch of Control
Investigators claim that there is a danger of switching the control of policy to white gambels. If three operators are driven out of their position, certain white gambels in defiance to citizens and the law continued to draw while Race operators were ordered to "mark time." This condition cannot continue for three operators. They are tightly policy playing because they believe that the police time is a detriment to the character of the children of the city. They need to also mean to see that trace operators get a square deal in the case. They must be so strict of control. It is no secret that "the shooters" have stood a large distance from the salaries were paid to members of the staff and admits were made to writers in a similar effort to hold their organization together. But white gambels is claimed, took advantage of the police of the other wheels. This bit of strategy was made for the purpose of gaining enough power to fringe our all competition. James Spratt, superintendent of police, has ordered the department to

THIS PAPER CONSISTS OF
TWO PARTS - PART ONE
Chicago to Honor DeSaible
City Council Passes Bill for Memorial
The city council Wednesday unanimously adopted a resolution introduced by Alderman Robert R. Jackson of the Third ward for the erection of a $20,000 monument to the memory of Jean Point DeSaible, pioneer settler, trader and land owner, who came to the territory on which Chicago is located in 1779.
The finance committee of the council set aside the requested monument fund in the 1920 budget for the purpose of securing and creating a suitable memorial.
Defender Wins Fight
The long, steady light made by the Defender for Chicago officially to pay homage to this outstanding hero has at last brought results. The next step is for citizens to show vital interest in the proposed memorial shaft. The logical place for the monument is Grant park, where the South Park commission is building beautiful bridges and cozy terraces and statues. Here Legislature is recommending 17 years placing the foundation upon which the city is built. Alertness must be maintained by the citizens to see that the memorial statue of Jesse Lee is represented to an secure location. On the lake front, facing the Loop district, the memorial will be seen by visitors, who will take to their home towns the memorial to Jesse Lee, a former factor in the pioneer days of Calgary.
"The real history of Chicago," says Alderman Jackson's resolution, "began with the coming of Desirable to Deschurchie, now Chicago, in 1772, with the bank of the Chicago river, where Michigan Ave. crosses, he built a home and trading post which formed the embryo of what is destined to be the world's greatest metropolis.
Desable a Hero
"He had the forestight, the courage, the capital and the ability to see the mountains, the Indians and to build the first home and business of Chicago, remaining there, trapping and trading, for 17 years. The cabin built by Desable and sent to La Mia was creased from the first but not bought from the Indians. The French trader, after living there for a few years, sold the cabin to a Scotchman, John Kinzie, for his family. It was a white family in Chicago, but for many years was the only dwelling for white men in the settlement or now more than 3,000,000 people. The house was abandoned at the time, and remained vacant for four years. John Kinzie, returned again, occupied the home in 1816. Here the first white child was born, and under the first spellings he bride. The first spelling classes held in Chicago were held in this house by a 13-year-old teacher, having six pupils. It is probable that the first justice of the peace lived here and the first point of Chicago was held under its roof."
The fight to secure a memorial shaft for DeSailable was started more than two years ago by the Defender, a publication has carried stories calling upon Chicago to honor its first citizen. The efforts put forth by the Defender were watched by the action of the city council. Editor Abuhill all day Thursday received telephone messages from citizens congratulating him on his victory, occupying in half of DeSailable's history is the second the Defender has achieved within recent months, the other being the dedication of the monument in St. Paul and markway to the memory of the hero of the old Eighth Illinois regiment.
Alderman Deserves Praise
These two striking victories for our heroes demonstrate what can be accomplished when a "never say die" determination to reach an objective is carried out. There are many things yet in the offing which need attention, and the Defender takes up the battle awe for fairness and equality.
Great praise and credit must be given Alderman Jackson by the citizens for securing the $20,000 appropriation from the city for the erection of the monument. The community on the city council and has always been alert for the securing of favorable

Near Riot Occurs at Coroner's Inquest
(Photo on Picture Page)
A near riot occurred Friday at the inquest held into the death of 16-year-old Ernest Whitehurst, 93S Townsend St., when attorneys for the slain youth's family charged that the boy "had been lynched" by police.
Young Whitehurst was shot to death early Wednesday morning after he hounded nine policemen in a two-hour gun battle. At the Cook county morgue, an investigation into the body had been punctured 55 times with bullets from the guns of the police.
State Representatives George W. Backwell, William E. King, V. G. Polland and F. L. Barnett acted as counsel to the shaken youth's family. He was shot in cold blood. "About Attorney F. L. Barnet," he was murdered.
The Cook county morgue was filled to capacity with members of both Friday morning when Deputy Cotton Joseph Gubbins opened the inquest.
Thirty-five Bullets in Body
Sergt. Tom Connolly, who fired five of the 35 bullets that punctured the boy's body, and the other policemen who shot him, were on hand to offer testimony.
Sergent Connolly was the first to take the stand. He told how me, with Deputy Commissioner of Detectives John Stege, Deputy Commissioner of Detectives Egan, Lleut, William Cusack and others, behind at steel shield had made a final rush on the boy's home after nine policemen had been shot. He went to the bathroom and found a gun. He shot it. "Connolly testified. 'He raised it toward' Liutenant Carroll and I shot. He did not lower the gun and I fired again, five times, I think. In other officers fired, too. In all he was shot about 25 times." Connolly concluded.
Cuts Examination Short
Before leaving the stand Attorney Barnett asked permission to question Connolly, but the lawyer had hardly heard what Gibbins cut short the examination with the remark: "I want to give everyone a fair chance inquest, but we can't stay here all day repeat questions," he said.
Before Deputy Coroner Gubbins had finished his remarks the four defense lawyers were on their feet. "We can't turn now if we can't get justice," shouted Attorney Barnett, "the mass was massacred," added Attorney Pollard, "the coroner," said Representative Blackwell, "if you haven't the time and patience to conduct a thorough investigation of why this boy was brutally murdered, well applaud him." He added he had another deputy assigned to hear this case, he continued, "I have seen inquests continued for more than a year and various hearings had to determine why do we have to rush this one?"
"You speak of nine police lying in hospitals shot, but don't forget that little Ernest Whitchurst is dead in the county morgue. His body is filled
Want to Know the Truth
"We want to know if you wouldn't term this a lynching on the part of Chicago police? Why did the police enter his home without a warrant? Why did they seek to arrest him without full knowledge of the crime?"
"These are a few of the questions we want answered during the inquest and we are not going to stop until we find the guilty ones?" The crowded room was in an uproar when Backwell concluded his remarks. Deputy Coroner Gubbins hammered

(Photo on Picture Page)
Jackson, Miss., Dec. 21.—Perry W. Howard, national Republican committeeman from Mississippi, was found not guilty here Tuesday by a jury in the federal court of Judge Edwin R. Holmes after a 19-hour deadlock of charges of conspiracy to violate the federal patronage act in selling federal offices in Mississippi. The verdict returned on the first ballot also acquitted four other defendants, S. D. Redmond, A. M. Redmond, E. L. Patton and J. Scott Hubbard (white), suspended United States marshal, of similar charges.
The Redmonds and Patton are political leaders in Committeeman Howard's organization.
Howard Weeps
Howard and S. D. Redmond broke down in tears when the jury's verdict was announced.
Judge Edwin Holmes had previously announced that only the case on account of an evidence of induction, and deportation, of his home at Yazoo City. All other cases pending will be carried over to terms at Bloosl beginning Jan. 7; at Meridian, the third in March, and at Jackson next day.
The sudden decision of the jury to free the defendants came as a surprise in the court, it having been learned when the jurors went to dinner, that all the federal convicting all but Howard, and one for convicting all five defendants, returning at 1:30, they announced a few minutes later that an agreement was ready and reported a notifiable charge of Judge Holmes when he opened court at 2:30.
HOLD FUNERAL SERVICES FOR MRS. R. H. BOYD
Many Attend Rites at Nashville
Nashville, Tenn., Dec. 21. (Special) — Funeral services for Mrs. R. H. Boyd, wife of the late Dr. R. H. Boyd, founder of the National Baptist Publishing board here, and secretary of the National Baptist Convention of America, were
Explicit instructions were given by Judge Holmes in his charge to the action between Russell and Howard could not be used as a reason for conviction unless the jury believed it an overt act in the conspiracy to murder the Russell, and that the testimony of a witness who had been proved to have sworn falsely to any statement might be admissible to the Russell, almost all the time since Howard, admitted on the witness stand that after making the alleged payment to Howard he made an allusion that he had given no money on a promise of receiving the marshalship. Russell was given a recess appointment as marshal, but it was removed from office last month when he was indicted for having alleged illegal means to obtain the money. Boyer of Yazoo city is now marshal.
Jurors With Defendants
Several jurors stated frankly that they placed no confidence in the testimony of the chief government witness, insistent Russell of governor James W. Hamilton of the United States marshal, who sew he paid the defendants $2,000 for that office, $1,500 of which was given to Perry Howard in the latter's office in Washington. There was no doubt that Russell, inimicality, save by way of circumstantial evidence, and the statements of his brother, A. S. Russell. Jurors said they not only did not believe the Russells, but they thought it did not really good to the brothers, and they did not have much respect for informers anyway.
A. P. Russell escaped indictment, Mrs. Wiltan an immunity both before Mrs. Wiltan and the grand jury at Bloxox, and brought out the story of how he had got the United States marshalship. Scott Hubbard, a friend and neighbor, Mrs. Wiltan, hurried Russell to purchase the office, was jointly indicted with the four other defendants.
The jury was evidently never in doubt concerning Perry Howard's involvement in the first bail after the jury rested last Thursday night, and on the second ballot the vote was 11 to 1 for acquittal of the other defendants. Fowler made him guilty. Witness made him guilty. He was well poised, frank, straightforward and good humored throughout the grilling cross examination by Lester G. Pant of Holly Springs, assistant district attorney. His attitude was that of a person having nothing whatever to conceal.
Lily-Whites Given Jolt
Freeing of Howard, the leader of the Republican party in Mississippi, in what is regarded as a strong case for the lily-white faction of Republicans headed by George L. Shedlon of Pettit and Charles H. Gordon of Greenville. Shedlon is a former governor of Nebraska and Gordon was at one time postmaster and Chileno. He joined the Siedlon-Gordon group, known as the lily-white faction at the national convention in Kansas City this year.

Boys From Death Chair

Youngblood, 1414 Richland Ave. toave, to help John Pinthey, 16, Siam George Palmer, 21, from the electric chair here Jan. 14 to pay for the alleged murder of a Chinese handyman in Charleston. The youths were visited in their cells last week by Rev. S. S. Youngblood, 21, Deserter, who heard them give their separate versions of the case, Pinthey and Tolbert deny any part in the murder, while Brown and Palmer freely admitted the crime. The youths are too ignorant to understand and will calmly awaiting their execution. Their confessions were secured, they stated, after terrific beatings received at the hands of law officers during third degrees. Rev. Youngblood and Watson took the cases up with the.gov, but the criticism he received in the Ken Boss case, makes him careful. The governor stated that he might order an investigation. Rev. Youngblood is endeavoring to secure funds for the case, in an effort to save the boys from the chaf.

INDIANAPOLIS HOST TO FRATS AND SORORITY
Greeks to Hold First Pan-Hellenic Meet
Indianapolis, Ind., Dec. 21.—Living up to its long-established reputation of being the world's greatest convention goering itself one better this Christmas in attracting to its confines the delegates and friends of Omega Psi Phi and Kappa Alpha Psi fraternities and will assemble here from the 26th to the 31st to hold their separate annual conventions. Last year an invitation extended to all Greek letter societies this city at the same time, suggesting the possible outgrowth of a union of all the Greeks—a Pan-Hellenic, so-called, but indistinct in constitution, and indistinct are that some whose conventions will not meet here will send committees to sit in on such joint sessions likely to be held at the convention, just the consumption of the allied Greek societies idea. Numbered among these are Alpha Kappa Alpha and Delta Sigma Theta societies for the Phi Alpha and Phi Beta fraternities.
Some 500 or more visitors are expected for this occasion, and the round of entertainment festivities now planned promises to keep those on the road entertained this holiday on the so from the moment their feet touch Hoosier soil until they again turn their direction homeward. Each convening group will hold its convention separately. Omura holdin' the Mme. C. J. Walker Manufacturing company, with its up-to-the-minute facilities for convention entertainment; Kappa utilizing the many convenences of the Senate Ave branch; Y. M. A. a possessing, with the largest in the country, and the Sigma girls will occupy the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A.
Will Make "Whoopee"
Several joint entertainments are planned by the local chapters, notably a grand ball on Thursday evening at the Municipal Auditorium, for which neither money nor pains are being spared to make it the most brilliant ever staged in this section of the municipal auditorium, afternoon, Dec. 50, at Bethel A. M. E. church, one of the oldest and largest of that denomination, and at which time representatives of each participant would have a prominent part on the program.
The usual closed banquets, smokers, dances, etc. will be held, thus permitting brothers and sisters "in the bond to enjoy intimate and shared matters affecting the future welfare of their particular fraternal group. This tradition has been preserved, and whatever else may result from the Indianapolis meeting—Pan-Hellenic or what not—each group concludes with a dance, a rackle and dispose of its own problems separately and independently. No end of dances, receptions, tails, house parties, luncheons, etc., have been planned by nonparaparticipating fraters and have involved almost every hour—of the week will be check-out of something or some place to go.
City Council Passes

and progressive measures for his constituents. It is this sort of service that merits consideration at the polls and is the service that voters want. The issue will be for the doing away with "Jim Crow" fire stations and the placement of representatives of both races in every station in the city. The city council through its unanimous resolution has again proved faithful to its trust. By this act, it shows again that where there is some one within its ranks interested enough to call for change, it will confess its many who stand willing to remedy them. It is also another banner for our mayor, William Hale Thompson, from whom the city fathers acquired their indomitability. It is also the demonstration of the spirit that promoted Desirable to build the first house here.
A public donation campaign for a $20,000 fund should be started by the citizens to add to the appropriation granted by the city council for municipal investment make it really worth while in size and importance. If citizens raise this additional fund they can have an equal voice with the monumental committee on how the memorial should be made and what it will be. If you fail to subscribe this fund the others will have the right to decide the size and location of the statue. We want a life-size figure of Jean Daible and not a tablet. To secure this monument, which must compare with any other monument, we will necessitate our giving liberally to the Daible donation fund.
Virginia City Holds Up
Richmond, Va., Dec. 21.—The ordinance providing for residential segregation which has been pending in the Richmond city council has been referred to a commission of nine, including three city officials and six other members, to present the interracial committee. The commission was instructed to investigate the situation thoroughly and report their recommendations to the council. This decision was after probes indicating the proposed ordinance, in which the various viewpoints were presented before a mixed audience of 250 people. The opposition to the ordinance was presented, representing the interracial committee, who contended that the measure would work a hardship on a great many people and tend to disarrange the existing corral relations between the different representative citizens, each of whom ably supported the argument. Among these were: Attorney Joseph E. Pollard, Rev. W. L. Newsome, Lawyer Robert L. Jordan. The action of the committee in recommending postponement and further study was evidence of the effectiveness of their arguments.
Reapportionment Bill
May Split Republicans
Washington, Dec. 21—Present indications point to a split in the compact Republican organization in the house of representatives over approving a reponsibility measure. The Fenn bill to report to the house, twenty-one states seem destined to lose representation, and if the bill reaches the floor for its descent, Speaker Nicholas Longworth and Floor Leader Tilson, Republicans, are determined there shall be no increase in the total representation in the house, holding that the members would make the body unwieldy.
A Negro mother calmed
The little Baby's cries:
A smile was on her face;
Much love lived in her eyes.
She led them to her hut,
Where they were warmed and fed,
And Mary's Babe that night
Slept in its first real bed.
And so, 'til "they were dead
Who sought the Young Child's life"
Lived in that Afric home
This alien Man and Wife,
And Mary learned to sing
(For so the tale avers)
The same songs to HER Son
That mother sang to hers.
O Son of God, so pure;
Strong Man—yet neek and mild—
I know you must have heard
Sweet music when a child!
Your life—a perfect song—
As full, then as today.
Of power as "Jordan Roll,"
Of love as "Steal Away!"

for order and finally forced the noise makers to subside.
He adjourned the inquest until Friday, Jan. 4, to allow the policemen confined in the hospital to recover sufficiently to testify.
In the meantime attorneys for the stain youth's family will ask Coroner Bundesen to assign a new deputy for the inquest. The side business men will be handed the coroner. Three of this number will sit on the jury with three white men.
Information of a more startling nature is expected to be brought up at the inquest when Miss Mary Whitehurst, a cripple, sister of the dead youth, testifies.
Miss Whitehurst told a Chicago Defender reporter that police came to their home early Wednesday morning, but refused to say who they were.
Believing that bandits were trying to invade the home, the woman called her brother Ernest, who, after falling to get a suitable answer from the men, brought the door with his father's gun.
The men left, Miss Whitehurst said, but soon returned, and this time it was the police who were firing at the house. Even the fire department had been called and water from their hose broke the gas-bombs in the police to toss in tear-gas bombs.
Police Kill Boy
At the close of the two-hour gun battle, Miss Whitehurst said, she went to the door and admitted the police, who were in the bathroom, had dropped his gun, she said, and had both arms in the air. He begged the police not to shoot. "They came rushing into the house and men, and no one, than they saw brother they began shooting him. They ignored his plea not to shoot, and it looks like every one of them took a crack at him."

Division St. The father, Owen Whitehurst, was not at the scene of the shooting affray until he returned from work the next day.
Bureau of Education Honors B. F. Hubert

Southerners May Kidnap Freed Woman
Detroit, Mich., Dec. 21.—Since Governor Fred W. Green of Michigan denied the request of Florida authorities for the return of Mrs. Viola Edwards to Florida, Escambia county officials have threatened to kidnap her and take her back to stand trial on charges against her.
They declare that they will not stop their efforts to take her back. Richard H. Merritt, assistant county when told that Green Escambia county refused extratrial papers, said "We are not going to give up. We've got four other charges of criminal operation against the Negress, and are going to keep on trying to get her."
Mrs. Edwards, who formerly operated a maternity hospital in Pensacola, was acquitted in September, 1927, of having contributed to the murder of a woman who was involved in illegal operation. Her acquittal caused such bitterness that the burning of her hospital to the ground followed and she fled to Detroit. . .
Her return to Florida was asked under a new warrant, charging manhunters for the killing of the child. She was arrested in Detroit, but fought extinction.
Mrs. Edwards' husband, W. H. Edwards, is still in Pensacola, where he is employed as clerk in the postmaster's office. He is giving Mrs. Edwards all the protection possible. She is a free woman under the protectorate of Michigan.

YOUNG SINGER DENIED CHANCE IN CONTEST
Miss Cole Is Victim of Discrimination
Miss Coleste Cole, whose wonderful contritudo voice has been highly praised by music lovers of Detroit, Mich., including Henry Ford, the automobile magnate, last Saturday was so unnerved by discriminations against her in the Midwest final contest given by the Atwater Kent Radio corporation over broadcasting station WMAQ, that she was not allowed to attend. She lost a chance to try in the national finals to be held in New York City. Methods of discrimination against Miss Cole, who gained attention from music years ago when she appeared in the leading role in a high school opera, were made evident when she arrived at the local radio station, where officials of the local radio station ranged for accommodations for all the contestants from various Midwestern cities. Miss Cole was told by the local radio station that accommodations had been made for her at the South parkway Y. W. C. A. The young singer communicated to the well-known Mayne Moon and went to the well-known W. Y. W. C. A. in preference to the Y. W. C. A.
Unserved By Ordeal
None of the contestants knew the exact order in which they would face the microphone or their numbers of assignment. The manager of the contest however, informed Miss Cole that she would be No.1 on the program and gave the time for her appearance. Miss Cole advised the young contestant to appear at the studio later than she had been scheduled in order to avoid being first on the program. When Miss Cole made her appearance, she was carried almost immediately before the music, although the contestants were grouped in divisions of four. A young white girl received the major prize and Miss Cole was declared not among the winners.

They also believed that John C. Dancy, executive secretary of the Urban league, will be asked to stand by so as to approach industrial leaders on the unemployment situation. It is known that a large percentage of the people engage in the policy racket are underworld "dusters," the majority of the men they have always legitimated living. It is estimated that 5,000 writers are employed here.
So far the city of Detroit has been kept clean of the frontier type hawker, the police department will allow it to creep in at this time. Moreover, citizens remember the savagery of the Grandy in Chicago and they will do all in their power to smash a racket which is seeking an alliance with crime.

The following expressions were given purported curious pulpits by other Baxdale, the Second Baptist church said, "The newspapers are to be congratulated for their right on the greatest evil that has ever been done to a missionary pastor, stated, "This evil must be cleaned out." Father J. K. Satterwhite, rector of St. Cyprus mission, "I feel that policy is the greatest evil of the world, and it will destroy the small West side business if allowed to continue." Rev. T. J. Moppins, pastor of St. John's C. M. E. church, stated "The policy racketeers should be

Flitman, pastor of Tabernacle Baptist church, stated, "The only effective means of breaking up the evil would be to have a thorough grand jury investigation of the whole business." Rev. W. H. Peck, pastor of Bethel A. M. E. church, stated, "I believe that we can stop this evil without aid of the policy by educating the people against it." Rev.

"We cannot bring ourselves to see how the church, which seeks to prepare her children for the life beyond, can become indifferent to their social living in the present life and world."

JAZZ OPERA TO GET NEW YORK SHOWING
Orchestra Leader Is Hero of Tale
New York, Dec. 21.—An opera which calls for a jazz band on the stage and whose hero is a Race youth in love with a white girl, is to be produced by the Metropolitan Opera and set forth in what the critics predict is to be the biggest musical sensation on this side of the Atlantic in years. The opera is "Johnny Spelt Aul," by Ernst Kreinsk, a young Austro-Czech composer. During 1827 following its sensational world premier in the staid old Neuse theater in Leipzig, and wherever it went it created a turore. The hero is Johnny, a young American Race youth, who has commenced his musical career not been long in Europe before he discovers that white people over have entirely different ideas about interracial love and courtship from those in America. He courts a white rival in opera, and a celebrated violin virtuoso, both white.
Hero Gets Killed
In the last act, which takes place in a large Continental railroad station, Johnny falls under an express train and is killed. Aboard the train, he is the composer, clapping to America. Suddenly the illuminated station becomes transformed into an immense globe, on which Johnny is perched, inviting all the world to join in an outpouring of jazz, while he leads the band. Musically "Johnny Splitt Auf" is said to be as sensational as its plot. In it there are all sorts of sounds which have herefore been adapted to opera. The poise and clatter of a railway station, for instance, a locomotive, the din and bustle of a hotel lobby, a motor car—and always banging and crashing through the entire score, jazz, jazz, jazz. Drums, saxophones! Playing the "blues": "fresh" (in the slangy sense), "insolent" and "abominable" are some of the expressions that have been seen and heard—from European cities and the description of "Johnny Splitt Auf."
The young composer has been a pupil of Franz Schreker and has been a member of the choir. For his previous operas, "Der Sprung Uber Den Schaeten," "Swingburg" and "Orpheus Eurydice," Kreens wrote only the music, depending on his story. But for "Johnny Spielt Auf" he wrote his own tale.
The cast for the premier at the Metropolitan has not yet been selected by the opera company, although it will be sometime toward the end of January.
DO NOT JIM CROW YOURSELF;
FIGHT SEGREGATION PLANS
With thousands of dollars being spent yearly and brain power expended daily to tight segregation and Jim Crowism" in every form, why should corporations attempt to launch a project, the name of which suggests the very opposite of the cause we are fighting?
Perhaps an amusement company attaches to interest you in a par or playground, which you are naively told "is to be built exclusively for your people" or perchance a corporation has the plans for a clubhouse, which will give a great opportunity for people. Now comes the suggestion that a hotel be built exclusively for "members of the Negro race." Such propositions must be fought, with mighty opposition, by an individual person to segregate yourself. You are protected by the civil rights bill in Illinois, and do not give up your weapon to defense. Distance is made regarding any opportunity to encourage one mode referring to you. You are an American citizen, born under the Stars and Stripes, and as sure, demand that you enjoy the same rights as the citizens of your country.
Instist upon going where your means will allow you to go. You are under very laws of nature verify your statement, for no matter what the color of your skin, nor your means of communication, you have born the same way, and the wealth of Crosses cannot buy any longer length of time for it favored stays stay when death calls for him go; the same as it calls for the most humble.

Trend of Times Shows Needs of Consolidation
This is the use of consolidation—of union. Our people have suddenly swung into the trend and are forming partnerships and firms, which strengthens both the individual and the business. We are seeking a company as well as other professional and business unions. Now is the time for the consolidation of banks. It would mean everything to the small depositor and a business boom for the promoters. Then, perhaps, we would not have any problems with people and the elding confidence which has been destroyed by reason of part performances, would be regained.

Advice to the Wise and Otherwise
Princess Mysteria
Roland Hayes appeared in recital at Orchestra hall, under the auspices of the South parkway Y. W. C. A., for the benefit of the appreciation of the audience was present and upon the entrances of the artist, prolonged applause, which lasted for several minutes, assured the artist of the appreciation of the performances always prove a lesson to young singers and some who consider themselves artists. His spiendid stage presence and dignity, at the audience with the fact that culture and refinement will mark the program.
The program was one that will long be remembered, and many who have always heard Mr. Hayes in each return to the city expresses emotion. He is a man of great interest, this occasion was the most enjoyable of any previous appearance. Mr. Hayes will return to Chicago for his final recital in April, which will give Chicago another opportunity to enjoy it. Chicago critics were highly pleased with Mr. Hayes and Mr. Devries of the American gave him a headline. Following are some of the comments in part:
"Chicago losesfeld, of the Dally News," said: "In the interpretation and rendition of old classics, romantic songs by Schubert, miscellaneous selections and Negro spirituals, Mr. Hayes employed the talents and gifts of the studious musician, the concert singer, the concerto singer, the admirable clarity in enunciation of the skilled dramatist.
"His voice, light and lyric in texture, has carrying power and virility. There is poetry and charm in it. There is poetry and airs of old classics of lyric music."
Stinson, of the Chicago Journal, said: "The secret thing which places the great artist in the forefront of the music is his musicianism, is his possession of something the public cannot precisely explain. Mr. Ioland Hayes, whose following upon both sides of the Atlantic is great, though in Chicago it is perhaps not so ardent as it should be. Hayes is also more demonstrative than and once more demonstrated that he is a singer of unusual musical excellence, with a curious sweep over a sensitive gathering of hearers. "While Air, Hayes' singing is excellent, and his taste in music, especially in the sense of rhythm, is almost faultless, still, in neither respect is he unexplainable; he merely conforms to the best standards currently known. The secret of this admirable Negro tenor's superiority as an artist must be remarkable delicacy of his feeling."
Karleton Hackett, of the Post, said: The Schuhbert songs are simple melodies with strongly marked rhythms. To priming them, Essay Beauty one needs merely to bring them in the primary meaning of the word, sing. To sing means to sustain a melody with a smoothly flowing tone of musical beauty. This is present in the need of the sustained tone to express the beauty of the music through the beauty of the sustained tone. No attempts to dramatize them, no declaratory explosions of temperament, but sing them in the music tell its own story.
Herman Devries, of the Chicago American, said: "Hecauae Mr. Hayes is so fine an artist, I take pleasure in repeating what I said, namely, that now no less effective and popular than upon the occasion of his debut here not so very long ago. His mozza voice is just as ingratiating, and his reception by the public no less enlightened than by Hecauae Mr. Hayes of the South parkway Y. W. C. A., which had found support by such local members of the cognoscenti as Mrs. Cyrus McCormick, Mrs. Moses Wentworth, Mrs. John Farwell, Mr. Wheeler, and other associates. Albert George and associates, organized the benefit." Edward Moore, in the Trilune, said: "Holay Hayes, the best of the Negro tenors, returned to Chicago in Europe, and gave a recital at Orchestra hall for the benefit of the South parkway Y. W. C. A. Official figures were not given out, but the crowd looked large enough to make the benefit live up to the implications of the title." "He is a curious study, this artist."
Dear Princess: I have read your wonderful advice, so how I want your help, my husband, and my man I am supposed to marry has recently shattered my church worker and love it, but he does not take any interest in anything. His hobby is drinking and gambolim. "Prince" is not my type. Do you think we marry that he would reform, or should he the right man comes along?—I misunderstood.
Reforming persons who have had habits or excusable traits of disposition is a welcome job and one that seldom turns out favorably. The two very had habits that your intended husband has are anything but encouraging to a woman that is very much. You have already experienced the bitterness of an unlady's marriage, so my advice to you is to give him up. I do not say that you cannot return, but I do say you will be an exception and it will be the very hardest job you ever had.
Dear I'mness: I am only 16, and the boy I have been going with for over a year is only 16. I am going to become a mother. My grandparents with whom I live, do not know it. They know I go with this boy, and allow him to come to see me three and four times a week. They are very strict, and I am afraid to tell them. The boy says he is too young to go married and that he is not a father who is. He says he could not face his mother, if she knew about me. So he says that when the time comes for me to have my baby, he is going to leave town. I do not know what to do. I'mness. I'll give me your advice. I am such a little
Just another case of flaming youth that darned and flamed and darned, but put himself in a mans place and the law is elastic enough to cover every society. He should have thought about his mother and his tender years, before he no more to be faced, than your grandparents are. They must all be faced grandparents, at once. An old adage goes so—"Intereststruction is the thief of opportunities, so you alone will be to blame if you delay. Get it over with and be done with. This is no time to pride yourself. You will not be the judge. Your experience is a great teacher, and demands its pound but often makes real men and women.
Dear Princess: I am a reader of your column and have read such helpful and inspiring writings to you. I am a widow. I live with my husband nine years. I left him and got a divorce. I met a young woman devoted to me. He claimed he wanted to marry me. He is a good worker, but a real petticoat chaser, both young and old, and went away, but now he is back and still claims to love me. He says he is his just to spite me. He is still chasing petticoats and claiming to love me. His wife has two children so I do not feel justice. What must I do—marry her?
A professional clerk can never make
love and infection makes them swollen,
but underinfections. Your admirer has
heart and now he has gone back to
His voice is an excellent one, though not the greatest tenor in the world today. He is an expert and discriminatory, and several languages, though one finds it difficult to admit that he sings old Italian better than Tito Schipa, or Händel better than John Edward Johnson." The Chicago Music association presented the fourth of their source musicaLES at Grace Lyceum, Grace Presbyterian church. Because an audition was too capacity. The speaker of the afternoon was Mine. Peggy Righter, whose subject was "Furo Diction In Sitting." Miss Margarita Lewis presided over Hutchinson, who was mistress of ceremonies for the Music association.
Mme. Righter gave a splendid address upon the need, value and proper use of diction. Mme. Righter was the teacher relative to that she should listen to clear enunciation, poise and proper inflection of the voice. Her readings of some gems written by herself and others which illustrated the points of her lecture, represented the skills present had a real lesson and should profit by the instruction of Sunday.
The program was completed by the excellent musical program rendered by Odell Stone Gray, soprano; Walter E. Cossette, organist; and Theo P. Hickey, bassist.
Miss Ruth Grundman, dramatic soprano, will appear at the new Congregational church Sunday afternoon at 5 o'clock. She will be assisted by Mme. P. Williams, reader, and T. Theo Taylor, pianist. Miss Grandmother will provide services for worthy causes in various programs and she should have the support of all music lovers Sunday.
Miss Marlon Anderson, Philadelphia contralto, who made a sensational success in London, appearing in the recital in Wilmette with the Little Symphony orchestra. Miss Anderson was given an ovation there on Monday evening and about 14 of our musicians all received a standing ovation. They all brought back glowing reports of her singing as well as her reception. Chicago is hoping to hear Miss Anderson before the season is over. She will be presented by the received her first great ovation here when the scholarship of the N. A. N. M. was awarded.
Miss Margaret Bonds, Chicago's talented pianist, will be presented in recital on Friday. Essa Toufouch chapel, Monday, Dec. 17.

The St. Edmund's church choir, under the direction of Daniel Davis, will render its regular Sunday evening music once next Sunday. The Close feature of the choir will be a special feature of the program. Music lovers are invited to be present.
Mme. Bertha Dickerson Tyree is director of music at the Kansas Vocational school at Topeka, Kan. Miss Anderson is a faculty artist and a member of the faculty of the Coleridge-Taylor school of music, appeared there in recital and captivated the audience. The faculty of Topeka was well known of leaders of Topeka, were quite indebted to Mme. Tyree for having brought before them an artist of such merit. Prof. James A. Mumay and his team at Olivet Baptist church for the benefit of one of the smaller churches of the denomination. The program represented the usual high standard of audience was delighted with the splendid program which was given. Mr. Mundy is a member of the national board of the N. A. Mumay, which is responsible for the annual meeting and program at Fort Worth, Texas, in August. J. Wesley Jones, president of the N. A.

Holland Hayes left the city immediately following his concert Monday, when many musicians who had hoped to have an opportunity to visit with him, but a recital in Cleveland on Friday, imperative for him, to leave the city.
finish you up. Spike work, when it becomes so extreme as marriage, must be very unpleasant for the other party. I bet his wife thinks of forty different kinds of poison, when she looks at him. You were rid of him once, and now he is back at his game old trade, so my advice is to get rid of him again. He is never going to stop chasing.
Dear Princess: I am going with a man who is much older than I am. He takes me out, but goes that I get home and a reasonable time. At first I did not love him but he treated me so nice that now I do. Then he told me that he once loved a girl and she made him lose all confidence and love for women, and that he simply cannot love again, but he does like me. He says I must love him only as a brother, still he is very affectionate. Do you think that he comes to see me because he thinks I love him or does he love me and is afraid to show it? Should I forget him or try to win his love?—Miserable.
When a man, or woman either, admonishes all confidence in the opposite sex, that man or woman should be left severely alone. Every grown person should be given the same past time, but that even does not justify losing confidence in everyone. Heatheryl loves to fear. Heatheryl loves is mighty line, but not when a man is supposed to be a sweetheart and is affectionate. There is a chance he finds your company inviting and likes to be around you; he may even be the one who helps you. Do not take him too seriously. Let him take all of the initiative. If you start going with some one else for a while, he will help you to find "male."-Robs.
I surely will. Your lonely days are
I surely will. Your lonely days are over.—Princess.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
DR. DILLARD GIVES POINTS ON EDUCATION
Cites Marks Which Indicate Training
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 21.—Morehouse college was pleased to have as his guest Dr. James H. Dillard on Dec. 5. Dr. Dillard was at one time a professor in Tulane university, a professor in the education board and president of the John F. Slater fund and of the James fund. He was presisted to the college at the morning chapel service by Dr. Hope and spoke briefly on "I cannot define education," he said; "nor can I define most of the finer qualities of life. But I can tell you how I think a man can be judged as to his education. There are four moral spirit of accuracy—An educated person is accurate in his information. It is necessary to be accurate about
everything; it is hard to determine what it important and what is not. Great inconvenience may result from mistakes that seem at the time unimportant. "Power of thinking steadily—An educated person must be able to think clearly through what he hears or reads. A few days ago I heard an old woman say that the time it took weeks to go from New York to England. Then came along big liners, which cut the time down to just a few days. And now the time was so much longer, so many hours. Such rapid transit will bring the nations of the world closer together, and this closer relationship will in turn bring about better uninterrupted man and woman interaction and realize, that France and Germany have been less than an hour apart for centuries, yet they have not had peace. —An education should it a man to do his work better. For this to be true, his training must be to a large extent in definite facts, to believe a man can do anything, to believe a man can do anything, to believe a man can do anything, even if it is plowing.

Radio Speech Made in Honor of Birthday
New York, Dec. 21.—"Ladies and gentlemen of the radio audience": "Thy mune leads all the rest because you loved your fellowman." These were respectively, the opening and closing phrases of a lengthy biographical address on the late Madam C. J. Walker, made by Mrs. Roberta C.

When will some legislation be enacted that will seek to enforce equal rights—to destroy prejudice? Billions are being spent to destroy liquor, but not one cent is appropriated to be used in an effort to curb if not abolish race hatred, which undermines the very foundation upon which any union rests. From must accept the amount of money expended, liquor still flows over the land, and the Volstead law is practically a joke. It should be an interest of law.

Citizens' Rights Ignored by Fire Department
The assignment of three men as our repres-natives in each Chicago fire department station would give employment to 534 citizens and bring the number of the citizens into the tax funds. We have been refused the right to have men in each station because the firemen "will not stay in the station and will not come to them." Then we demand that the fire system and civil service commission officials dismiss these uphelds of southern ideas for true Americans we would gladly aid in sufer-ward city fires with our representatives.
PART 1-PAGE 4
HOWARD PREXY ADMONISHED BY HOUSE MEMBERS
Washington, Dec. 21.—President Mordecai W. Johnson of Howard university was admonished by members of the subcommittee of the house appropriations committee for insisting upon a change in the policy of federal contributions to the university, according to the published hearings on the interior department appropriation bill for the fiscal year 1930 made public Monday.
Dr. Johnson urged an increase of $65,000 in the item for salaries. He asked that the amount be increased to $25,000 toward the payment of salaries of officers, professors, teachers and other employees. The department presented the sum of $160,000 to be used in the payment of salaries at Howard university in the current fiscal year. Representative Louis C. Crampman, chairman of the subcommittee, questioned wisdom of increasing the physical contribution for salaries. He warned that the department was in charge of policy that "may minimize the chance of getting the physical improvements that the institution
Wairns Dr. Johnson
Representative Grammar replied that he challenged the recommendation to pay salary from because "It appeals to me that this estimate comes before on a different basis than any other estimate we have since we since I have had to do with this bill."
He explained that the policy has been for the government to make only incidental contributions to expenses of government employees, to itself primarily with holdings and permanent improvements. He reminded me that having trouble enough with salaries of government employees "without taking on your employees" is "if it your judgment, Mr. Grammar, that the congress would not, at the actual needs of Howard university" Dr. Johnson asked.
He have not indicated "Mr. Grammar" will say it: It is a private institution, and congress has not taken over the full necessary needs. We have never said that you can draw on congress for the amount that is needed to supplement your
Congress Might Listen
Dr. Johnson stated that he hoped to secure an indication whether certain principles could be a picture of the full needs of the university. "I do not care to break for congress," Mr. Crampton said. "I do not care to assist the institution through the adoption of a policy of constant improvement in the physical and technical environment." The controversy between Mr. Crampton and Dr. Johnson brought from representative Congress a criticism of the District of Columbia. He declared it an outrage to put upon the university a criticism of the district of Columbia. He declared it an outrage to put upon the university an indictment. "There is no authority or precedent for it. He has no authority or precedent for it. The district of Columbia, he stated, and 'deserves much better treatment from the District officials and also from the Colored population of this city.'"
The subcommittee considered the recommendations of the budget burden for Howard University $25,000 in salaries, which caused the controversy, other items considered at the hearing were the sum of $25,000 for general expenses and the appropriation for the current year; the sum of $25,000 for supplies and equipment; $24,000 for construction and building, for which congress has already appropriated $150,000, and $40,000 additional for the construction and equipment; the dormitory costs for which congress has already appropriated $150,000.
Gives Total Estimates
The total estimates considered for Howard university amount to $600,000, as compared with an appropriation of $250,000 for the current year. The value of land, buildings and equipment of Howard university, Dr. Scott told the subcommittee, is about $2,000,000. The total assets of the university as of 1925, he stated, amounted to $2,718,867, of which $2,595,418.56 was invested in the educational plant.
For the year ending June 20, 1929, the estimated budget for current expenses for the university is $659,700, he said. Of this amount congress appropriated $240,000, leaving a balance of $400,700 to be provided by the university. For the year 1930 the estimated total budget for the university is $750,255, of which congress is being requested in the estimates of the bureau of the budget to appropriate $320,000.
Street Car Clowns Pass
On With Greasy Overalls
It is very gratifying to note the general improvement in the conduct of many members on the street cars and buses. It is just another sign of the new spirit among those citizens who are getting to be recognized as worthwhile members of a large community. Loud talking and laughing are getting people are fast learning that to be seen and not heard is the correct thing for the street car and then the "street car cowl" is fast in dying, just like the weavers of house aprons and house cloaks working hopefully forward to the time when the greesy overalls and dirty work clothes will fall, as the men and clean when they come through the streets. It is time we were walking up to the fact that we was in a crowded and lively lane and wrong in a crowded up-to-date city.

Radical Literature Greets British Minister at Howard
Washington, Dec. 21. — Literature attacking Sir Esme Howard, British ambassador, who made an address last Wednesday opening the new international house at Howard University, was distributed to students gathered for the exercises before the arrival of Sir Esme.
The communication, a lengthy in�mcographed document, bearing the name of George Tammour, described as a secretary of the International Anti-Imperialist Youths League, brought an immediate repudiation from Dr. Maynard W. Johnson, president of the university, who declared it "admore was not enrolled as a student.
Other members of the faculty admitted that some students whom they described as "surrechends, who wanted to run things," had aided in the distribution of the literature. Focusing members were not inclined to reward the incident seriously.
“We protest against your present misleaders,” the communication declared, “who has, without your condom, will be the president ambassador and other participants to officiate at your function.” The communication then continued that Sir Esme's influence played an important part in the deportation. Marcus Garvey from the States and more recently from China.
Paites Travel
Sr Erse paid tribute to the interchange of students by different manners of disseminating a more perfect education. Expressing his pleasure in functions which tend to promote the interchange of students, Sr Erse declared that the rapidly increasing number of international students movements soon "will cause international politics," "we cannot expect that travelers manumobilize into broad-minded statesmen," Sr Erse said, "tor, as manumobilize men, on them they need to have some touch to tell them what things are worthy to be seen in the country where they live," and "to seek what exercise or discipline the place yieldth, without which, as he continues, young men will be able to teach it." It is the great merit of this plan of exhensions of students that young men at for-profit colleges and universities do thus to promote their advantages that I have spoke of.
CHICAGO HOTELS FIGHTING PROGRESS OF WORLD'S FAIR
A group of hotel managers met and decided that they would draw the coor line and limit their patronage to the members of the Caucasian race. It was distinctly understood that no members of our Race would be allowed to enter the portals of their doors with the intertitles of being registered there. Does Chicago want Jim Crow laws to be enforced? The proprietors of such places to begin now to segregate us? We must fight this move to a finish. The managers of the city must co-operate with the cooperation of all races to help the city put it over. Why should a for-profit determine that our rights to certain privileges should be curtailed? Let a man stop wherever he is. Let all doors be open to all races, and all citizens of the world be allowed to enjoy the same privileges. Let all doors be open to the popularity of the city, whose fair name has been besmirched to such an extent that visitors fear to come
Through newspaper reports we have learned that gangsters, motor-vehicle occupants and狱兵, where their nonfurious crimes have been hutched post afterwards carried out. Yet, nursing publics, public hospitals have met in council and decided to bar us from their hotels. World's fair commission, teachers, lodges, organizations and all citizens should unite to fight this move. Let all races of the world inside, spend their money as we do, to fight the sense of democracy, whose cause cost the lives of so many men of our Race, whose relatives are now accused. Fight this move to a flight.

Continuing, the British ambassador said: 'It is hardly too much to say that a man who has not had the opportunity of rubbing shoulders with and admiring women of other nations, who has learned no other language but his own, has forgone a more important part of his education, and his own, has forgone a more important gift of intuition as belongs to a few, must be hampered, as a blindner, in dealing with men whose environment, traditions and modes of expression are totally incomprehensible. The ambassador, following the exercises, together with members of various national clubs deems of various opportunities to interact with others and members of the several universities at universities.
Open International House
President Johnson and Alin Levy Locke, Rhodes scholar, spoke briefly on the significance of the international mind. Musical numbers were presented, and tenor, and the Howard University Glee club, under direction of Roy W. Hunt, and has as one of its objects the celebration of the International club, was set forth by R. O. Murray, president. It is the first of its kind sponsored by the University and has as one of its objects the celebration of the international prejudices in international understandings and development of international organizations, to sustain close contact with international organizations of the world, and expects to provide a fund with which send delegates to world conferences.
In the international homes, located at 247 Georgia Ave. N, W. are both students and born students. The house was made possible by subscriptions of friends, principally from New York, the funds having been raised by member memorial organizations. The university has 260 foreign students enrolled, 150 of whom are from British Columbia, Central America and South America. Officers of the International club are R. O. Murray, president, Missile President, missile president, Missile President; Walter Merick, corresponding secretary, Trifidad; Louis Young, recording artist, Treasure, Harbades, and Charles A. Calabas, chaptain, Canada.
Prison Intolerances
Endanger Citizens
"Prisoners of the white and black races placed together in the cells of the county jail would cause constant fights and disturbance" is the reason given by officials of the county for segregation and discrimination in that institution. Jails are places of discipline and the taxpayers expect them to be managed as such and not to be punished. The institution wanted the prisoners placed together there would be no rights, for the entire county law enforced. It was to see that officer was maintained. This absurd statement was given as a reason for the separate cell blocks, different eating and exercise hours of the prisoner.
The Defender, emerging victorious after its two-year battle to assure the nation's foremost citizen, in the form of a memorial monument, with renewed energy takes up the fight for the nation's independence and penal institutions of Cook county. It calls upon the public to give its support in this most worthy campaign. The defender's intolerance is to invite the curring of our rights in public places.
Unemployment Due to Public Utility Ban
The Defender urges its readers and the public during the remainder of 1928 to take stance and events during this year, and to fully ourly imitate in the labor field. Our youths have been barred from participation in the labor field. Our workers have been replaced by persons of other races in many companies. There is serious evidence of losing our economic standing and becoming solely a spending group instead of an investment group. Our men and women are physically and mentally fit to perform any job assignments with the necessary training. Our working because of potty intolerance. During the coming year, 1929, let us have an equal chance with the rest of America's builders to compete and at the same time increase our economic status. Our future success as citizens depends upon our ability to compete against segregation and discrimination in employment offices.
Jewish Merchant Father
Des Mohers, town, Dec. 21.—A jury here in the criminal court last week deliberated less than an hour to return a verdict of guilty against Jos Rosenberg, a Jewish merchant, establishing him as the father of a child born last April to Pauline Moody, a 16-year-old girl. The case was tried behind closed doors. The evidence showed that the girl was placed in the Rosenberg home when she was 12 years old and had lived there until shortly before the birth of the child. The young mother testified to illicit relations with Rosenberg from the time she entered the home until she discovered her condition in November.
The merchant denied any relationship with the girl and attempted by the testimony of a number of girls to show that Pauline had been out on many immoral parties. The jury disregarding these statements and declared the Jew Father of the child. The court gave the child the name of Eile Mao Rosenberg and directed Rosenberg to support the child and mother.
Since the citizens of Chicago have awakened to their responsibilities, both of us are able to treat that others have also awakened. So, accordingly, it is observed all over all. Our instance, we are seeing more of our intelligent boys and girls helping in stores catering to our trade. This is no more than fair. All we ask is that these business businesses use their employees so that they may be assured of satisfactory service. Give us money is good enough to go after. It is good enough to divide at least of it in the place where it is made.

PERRY HOWARD WINS ACQUITTAL IN SOUTH
(Continued from Page 1)
the convention rescheduled Howard, who had held the office from June, 1924, when he succeeded M. J. Mulvihill Sr. of Vicksburg.
Practically the entire testimony against the committeeman was based on statements of A. P. Riggsell of Magge, who said that he entered into an agreement with Howard to buy the office of marshal for the southern district, and on March 14, 1927, in office at Washington paid $1,500 in complements.
One result of the verdict will be that the Hily-white Republican faction will hold their effort to oust Howard in favor of this state. Howard has no intention of resigning and there is no possible way of belonging about his res
May Regain Position
Whether or not Attorney General Sargent will reinstate Howard as his assistant remains to be seen. Other Indemnities are pending but it is generally believed the department of justice picked its strongest case and that all further efforts to convict them will be futile.
After Howard was indicted at the special terms of federal court East July, when the charges against him were presented by Mrs. Mailed Willebrandt, special assistant to the attorney general, he was suspended from his office at Washington. Later the Republican national committee recognized the so-called W125 faction of the Republican party in this state, and put� Lament Rowlands, millionaire south-Mississippi lumberman, in charge of the Expenditure campaign. Despite the Expenditure of a large sum of money for speakers and campaign literature, Rowlands and his associates succeeded in capturing only about 27,000 votes. The Howard faction probably could have done better, since an overwhelming majority of the qualified voters remained away from the polls in resentment over the dethronement of Howard.

Defeat Lily-Whites
One of the results of the verdict will be that the white Republicans will be defeated in the gubernatorial race, L. O. Gordon, Sheldon Schlesinger, L. O. Crosby will fall in their effort to win the governorship, an national committee for 'aisl state. Howard has no intention whatever of resigning, and, since he has been charged with assault charges brought against him under the federal patronage constabulary act, there is no possible way of bringing him to trial.
Whether or not Attorney-General Sargent will relinstate Howard as assistant in the attorney-general's office remains to the scene of the meeting against Howard and three of the defendants, the two Redmonds and Patton, but it is generally believed that the department of justice picked its strongest case against them for the Jackson derogation and the law of the Court. After the review, there will be futile. After Howard was indicted at the spectator of federal court last July, when the charges against him were presented by Mrs. Mabel Wilhelwood, assistant attorney-general, he was under a sign of office. Washington, and later the Republican national committee recognized the so-called white faction of the Republican party in this state, and put Lamont, Howlands, millionaire south Mississippi, in the court, in charge of the former campaign. The state, Despite all the fuss and fury of the battle, and the expenditure of a large sum of money in sending out speakers and distributing campaign literature, Howlands and his associates were needed in putting out their 27,000 votes for the Republican ticket. The Howard faction could probably have done better, since an overwhelming majority of the qualified Negro voters remained away from the polls in the November election. The Republican party, with a significant movement over the election of Perry Howard.
Members of the jury that acquitted the four Negroes and one white man for the patrolage conspiracy act talked freely after returning the verdict of acquittal, and several of them stated that the evidence whatever in the testimony of the chief government witness, Anselm I. Russell, of Magge, former mayor of New York, that he paid the Negroes $2,000 for that office, $1,500 of which was given to Perry Howard in the latter's office. There was very little collaboration of Russell's testimony, save by way of circumstantial evidence, and the jury acquitted Russell, who succeeded to the postmastership at Magge after Anselm I. Russell had been made United States citizen, job he held for a very brief period.
Admits Loan
Jurors stated that they not only didn't believe the two Russels, but that they had been exceptionally good to the have much respect for informers, anyway. Russell escaped indictment for his part in the conspiracy, having taken an innuity bath when Mrs. Mabel Willebrand brought him to the court. He brought out the story of how he had secured the United States marshalship. This testimony saved him from a prison sentence, and a friend and neighbor, from whom he was alleged to have borrowed $2,000 with which to purchase the office. He was fitted with the four Negro defendants. Hubbard frankly admitted that he had made the loan to purchase the office of indebtedness, and said that he had frequently made loans of the same nature to Russell, although for many years the jury was evidently never in doubt concerning Perry Howards innocence, for he had been indicted for indebtedness, and said that he had frequently made loans of the same nature to Russell, although for many years the jury was evidently never

Pant, of Holley Springs, assistant district attorney for the northern district, advocated toward counsel that of a citizen attitude toward counsel was that of a lawyer, his own, and having nothing whatever to conceal. That he was convincing the jury was quite evident throughout the examination. He was also dedicated to the identification of "I am grateful to the white citizens of Mississippi for giving me a square deal," said "Every Howard train for Washington." "I am ready and willing, at all times, to submit any section of the calm and dispassionate judgment of the white men of my native state, to submit any section of my heart and my heart is filled with gratitude for the exemplification of this faith, as manifested in yesterday's jury verdict." When Howard boarded the midnight train for Washington his lawyer, he received a number of congratulations from all parts of the United States, many of them from prominent leaders of the Reverend
Hon. Miller McGillchrist, special assistant to the attorney-general at the courthouse, directed the prosecution of Perry Howard and the four co-defendants was disconcerted when the verdict of acquittal was returned by the jury.
It was Mr. McGillchrist's first justice, and his experience with southern people, and, in addition to other handcaps, he was fighting an incident case of Jackson. In spite of this, he delivered a strong and forceful address to the Thursday afternoon, and his children made a pleasing impression with the jury, and he continued to convince the jurors. He brought with him from Washington all of the documentary exhibits upon which these were presented to the jury during the first stages of the trial, and they made little or no impression.
When a friend remarked to Mr. McClellistr, just before he boarded the plane, that "southern white folks generally take care of their Colored folks" he took care of his problem, curate diagnosis of verbiol, and if he carries this idea back to the department of justice it will be just about as good an alibi as he can obtain. Real Psychology of the Decision. If the evidence had been more conclusive, if the testimony had been more reliable, if the answer that Ausenl. P. Russell had actually paid $2,000 for the United States marshalship, and that the amount between Jerry Howland and other Negro Republicans, it is very doubtful whether the jury would have convicted any of the defens
In belief, the real psychology of the trial was simply this: The twelve background of their minds something more important than the guilt or innocence of the accused parties, the existence of a jury, or with a bribe' established conviction that a Republican party is to exist in Mississippi it is better to have it done. In that case, the judge will, while deny that the cause of white supremacy is less in peril with Perry
VOTERS FORCE ALDERMEN TO SHELVE BILL
Fear Election Results in St. Louis
St. Louis, Mo., Dec. 21—A politically embarrassing situation which the mayor of St. Louis Friday when the bill to hone the $1,200,000 city hospital No. 2 on a side entrance to the hospital for the patient turned up for the case, was referred the bill back to the public welfare committee. This technically unrelated case was referred by the addergen until after the municipal elections next spring. The hospital item in the bond issue of the city is the case of the community leaders supported the issue with the under-standing that the new hospital would be erected in the city, and that the surrounding Summer high school.
Aldermen Fear Voters
In 1925, upon the urgent recommendation of the St. Louis Medical Society (white) the site for the institution was changed next to the white hospital when it was found that the city could save $250,000 in construction and $20,000 annually in operating costs. There would be a complete separate medical and nursing staff provided the direction of a white superintendent.
The citizens since 1925 have waged a battle against the city's plans and demand that an independent institution be built as was provided for in the land issue of 1923. They have appeared before the board of aldermen repeatedly protesting against the ordinance which would have repeated the old site law. A citizens' delegation of more than fifty persons at the end of the meeting of the lidermen Friday to continue the protest, and they presented petitions against the change signed by thousands of members of societies and churches.
Political fear forced the aldermen to find some way to shift the hospital measure until the coming spring elections. Fourteen of the 25 aldermen, all Republicans, will seek re-nomination in the first month after the first primary of them wanted to antagonize the voters interested in the hospital project.
Howard at the balm than it would be under the domination of Lamont Howlands, or any other white Republican now aspiring to political power, that Howard and his associates, following the time-honored precedent, will be content to distribute federal所辖的黨名,account not concern them with building a powerful party organization, whereas Lamont Rowlands and other leaders of the so-called lily white faction—which isn't lily white at all when subjected to the acid test of analysis—both hopes and aspires to establish in this novel a party that will seriously contend with Democracy not only in national elections, but state contests as well.
The Next Trial At Meridian Court
The next case in which Perry Howard ingures, in event the government decides to continue the prosecution will be at the Meridian court term in March when J. G. Huchanan, former United States nurshal, recently summarily removed from that office when he was indicted at the illicit court, will be arraigned for trial.
Government attorneys say that the Huchanan case is stronger than that presented against Howard by the Russell brothers, and attorneys for the defense venture an emphatic
The case against Buchanan naturally belongs in the Meridian district, where he was a judge. But judge Buchanan has intimated that if the defendant wants a trial at Bloxell during the January term in that city it can be arranged. He has also said that Howard, Patton and the two Redmonds, evidently do not believe in 'sending a boy to mall,' for they employed three of the oldest criminal lawyers in Brookhaven, James D. Thames of Vicksburg, and Edward Franklin of this city. The latter is a comparative lawyer, having recently moved here from the Delta, where he established quite a reputation for his skill in criminal prosecution. He is city and Thames have figured in some of the most notable criminal trials in the state. Yet the defendants a rather nifty sum of money to employ three lawyers of this type. However, it is understood that the defendants are other parts of the country, contributed ill-tailor to his defense.

YOEING CHILDREN
NEED PLAYMATES
Miriam Brubaker, Nursery School Director, Gives Talk
The importance of playmates in the development of this young child was emphasized before the department of kindergarten and primary education was established. The National Education Association at Ailinvepels by Miriam Irabaker, nursery school director of the National Kindergarten and Elementary College at Evasmion.
The e-mail who has the privilege of being one of a play-group meets a challenge to his management. He is a child who plays alone does not meet, as said. Every day with any group of children challenging problems and problem-solving is the most common event which is to meet them is due to the opportunity given the youngsters to work out their own satisfaction.
The child must be alert when in this play contact with others. He learns through experience that he will lose out more times unless he is alive to the activity and the need for the activity. In the case of a fourth greater effort, imagination is aroused, and many other mental traits are stimulated.
As the school-personal life of the child, we frequently see fears disappearing because of the activities carried on by others. After the example set by one of the children in the school is a test, the child will be the child on the road to self-confidence. The fiery temper is curbed and controlled as the peppery individual finds the way to the end of the school. Another that attainment of his wishes, as social adjustment becomes more evident, greater harmony is established. The school should mean for the individual the building up of his habit of being happy.

Presbyterian Delegates to Jubilee Conference Sings Praise
New York, Dec. 21.—Rev. J. W. Holley, president of the normal school at Albany, Ga., and Attorney Charles Williams of Boston, who were the delegates of the Presbyterian church of the United States to the julliet conference of the Protestant mission, held in the Congo Sept. 16-24, at Kinshoga, made their reports and gave their impressions of their visits at a missionary mass meeting held at St. James Presbyterian church on Wednesday evening. A large gathering interested in mission and of the work that was being done among the parties in Africa were present. The meeting was under the auspices of the School of Missions of St. James Presbyterian church.
Rev. William Lloyd has, pastor of the church, presided and led the song service, which consisted of missionary byms. Rev. William R. Wheeler, secretary of the Foreign Mission board of the Presbyterian church, was present and told the interest of the Presbyterian church in missionary work. In Africa, he said that it is here of the church to send out well-trained and consecrated missionaries.
Attorney Williams in making his report said: "Whenever we turn our lives and the heart of the race, I've been a small and not a setting from the first climate of Africa was from the Congo river, and from that chleptont we saw a large river and a large river and a large river, and a large river and a large river, but the situation is the utter hopelessness of the situation. It is, however, full of possibilities. At the great Congu- niversity, there was no need to have a great deal of exploitation is going on in the Congu, and as a result the man who has had to go to the point of the times told of the interest that the natives take in our great characters and could they be in the case of their own interests and are suppressed in the Congu and that little or nothing was being done in the chleptonts' own history of the nation's system among the natives and described it as being a cruel one. He said there are 15,000,000 Africans in his life, and that the great issue is Mohammedism.
Rev. Holley was most optimistic in his work and gave a more hopeful outlook. He said that he was a great man every thing in Africa. I was surprised at the great Congo river. The news was a very serious surprise in the public. He saw business houses and banks operated by them. We saw native operations the railroads in Lo- ggan's and the United States. He said that the whole world of the steambooks, Dr. Holley told of the grace and charm of the African people who had the world. He told of the anywhere he would be the great reference he found among the natives in religious services. He de- denced his interest in the chleptonts' own history. He said
Dr. Holley said there were 200,000 Christians in the Congo. He described the purpose of the Congo conference saying that some of the problems considered were those of health and education. He said that more attention is being paid to education which will train the natives to work with their hands and he had never seen inner hundercraft than that done in the industrial schools of Africa. He said that Africa needs the help and support of the American. He urged a greater interest on the part of the young men and women in Africa and said that they should assume leadership in that country.
He was accompanied by Mrs. Holley, who took a great deal of interest in the native women. After the Congo conference Dr. and Mrs. Holley and Mr. Williams visited the mission station of the Presbyterian church of the United States in the French Camaroun. They were impressed with the line work in the Presbyterian church, and the among the natives. After the meeting a public reception was tendered to Rev. Dr. Wheeler, Dr. Holley and Mr. Williams in the lecture rooms of the church.

COLORED DINNER
CLOTH CHARMING
Bright Damask Is Being Used for Christmas Decorations
The housewife whose budget is modest, yet who wishes to achieve an effect of beauty and gavety in her Christmas table appointments, will do well to make inwhich use of the modern notes of color. Since color lends beauty to even the simplest materials, today's hostess may, with small expenditure, bring distinction to her table by working out a harmonious color scheme.
Linen damask table cloths may now be found in 16 colors. For the Christmas dinner, however, a green, pearlgay or ivory cloth is most appropriate. A table covering in any of these ones is a pleasing high-quality material, and the terpide� of holly, imbletted poinstillas, cedar and gray, southern moss. The new Italian cloths of crash linen are also effective on the holiday table, especially if one embroidered or cross-stitched in green is chosen.
Nothing could be better suited to give gavety and glow to the Christmas table than golets, dessert cups and plates, candle holders and flower bowls in clear green or rive glass. An individual cigarette holder and ash tray, in place of a open cup, is not a full-length collection of a new workpiece.
For a little informal Christmas break, you can dress up your room with the services, perhaps, before the open fire in the living room near the tree use, an extra layer of woven strips of red and blue. Another bright note for the holiday break is to use a new coat of woven strips of red and blue. Another may now buy attractive importeges of small knife, fork and spoon for your guests. An arm handle in a variety of shades.

The cities have been the other amenity places we have had for musicians and entertainers and in most places good salaries have been being a great Christmas to the bunch, that is if they have conservatively saved their earnings. At ease with the new standards we have saved each week. We should adopt a living standard that will assure us that we will be standing and standing we have to live after Christmas time and should not spend all of our money foolishly just because we have it and it is Christmas
Always Ready
This time of the year the musicians and actors are called upon to perform in poor and I know of no case where they have refused when it was possible to render such service. Truthly the public should appreciate the actors and killers who are ever ready and willing to help the poor and needy. To know that we have done our part in the fight in stiffness makes us all feel good.

This writer wishes to extend to the musical bunch a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. The musicians have been carried from musicians throughout the country appreciating the advises given from time to time anecdotal accounts of how happy to know that certain evils have been corrected and that the musicians are going along making history for the themselves and doing their part in civilization.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
ACROSS THE POND
By IVAN H. BROWNING
I have been reading with much interest about Earl Dancer's production, "Deep Harlem," and judging from the critics, Dancer, with the assistance of Salem Tutt Whitney and Honzer Tutt, has struck upon a great idea, one that I am sure everyone is aware of. The production idea back when was only a few seasons ago. I certainly agree with Bennie Butler when he mentions that the team's centention that our performers and managers are way behind the times, intelligence, aggressiveness, courage and sincerity. I firmly believe that the team is right in every way "Deep Harlem" will do much toward proving to the oftys that an entertainment along an artistic line concerned will take its place with other productions of today and will be in a big way by the general public.
The Race artists are still in the lead all over the world. Their ideas are everywhere, and if our managers and every musical entertainment the world over and if our managers and minds to do things in the proper way by using their brains, and not by boasting each other's ideas, the Race might be a mighty long time. Earl Dancer deserves much credit for his duetion. On the other hand, it is said that his methods in many ways are the same as the old-time saying goes. "Everybody can't be wrong," but since Mr. Dancer has started out so well again and prove to the public that, regardless of his skill, he can see him play fair in every way and all concerned are going to stick together and make "Dead Burleen" I personally with Dancer's The Whitneys, Joe Jordan and the rest every success possible, and I feel that the Race and show from the stoke all sides of our life, from the lowest to the highest, he has attained up to the present.
An editor of a London theaterical paper asked me a short time ago why he liked the famous Edward shows like the famous Wizard of Oz had years ago. I told him to ask Noble Sissle, who happens to be in London now, to help him because he is advertised as a producer as well. Sissle has had lots of experience in managing productions. He said he knew Sissle had ideas in his plays and shows on this side when he first came, but of late he has dropped the idea altogether, and, too, I happen to know that he was the first year he was all excited over the producing idea, but like most of our producers and managers, while Sissle's intelligence, he lacks experience and智谋.
From a standpoint of popularity there hasn't been an American Justice system in some time to equal him. Yet, unfortunately being always wrong adds a lack of courage and sincerity, as well as progresiveness, more than ever, to his reputation. Harold Tillston says, I consider Sissie one of our most smart showcases of efforts to fall along the lines of doing really worth-while things. Beginning with "Shuffle Along" he has taught the nation which gave us our greatest production of modern times, but he lacks concentration along proper lines.
All concerned broke that mighty combination up, but fortunately, with his partner, Euble Blake, they did a wonderful come-back, until they continued to listen to the wrong advice and with insincerity combined, all of which caused the clever and beautiful Chocolate Dandies to crumble in a very disastrous way. Then the very unfortunate thing of him and his well-known partner Blake splitting, did not help either of them in the least, but again luck. If I may term it such, came his way when he came to Europe with a clever pianist, Harry Revel. He got an unusual break, wrote one of the biggest popular song hits, "Nebraska," of the year, and started out in a great way, reaching almost the top in a few months. Wrong advice and insincerity again caused him and Revel to split, with the result that his idea of starting out to do things in a big way have fallen by the wayside. Yet there are other of our so-called producers and managers who have and are doing just as Sissie is doing, and the results are our worth-while productions have suffered greatly.
The public is anxious and always willing to accept a real Race production in unusual interest and I hope My Dear Lord will allow me to mention of others, put forth extra effort and give to the anxiously waiting world the most successful production since the wonderful "Shuffle Along."

DRAMA IN TAP DANCE
SAYS BILL ROBINSON
DRAMA IN TAP DANCE
SAYS BILL ROBINSON
"There is as much drama in tap dancing as there is in a play," decries the world's greatest tain dancer, who is one of the outstanding stars in Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds of 1925" at the atelier "Tap dancing in my estimation," explained Mr. Robinson. "Is as much business as I can do," he says, "and one knows the shadows of plot one cannot write a substantial play. And unless one knows how to tap dance one ensembles a so-solo performer. I have studied tap dancing for almost the fundamentals of this art more than anyone in the theater. There was a time when I thought tap dancing was a mere coercion, to music, of course, of sound beats. And while this is naturally the essential foundation on which tap dancing is nevertheless only the beginner's stage. Tap dancing must have light, color, and energy." Tap dancing is neverless sparkle. Merely dancing in time to music is all right in its small way, but unless one brings to it soul, too, it falls short of great

STEAMBOAT DAYS
Nashville, Tenn.—In all probability there is not another artist on the stage who has more admirers than Hessie Smith, the crowned queen of blue, the greatest of them all, and Columbia record star. In her newest season's presentation, "Steamboat Days" and of which the Majestic Theatrical Circuit, Inc., is presenting, And in its presentation it ranks as the supplyiest musical Colored revue that has so far graced the boards of the large Hijo's stage. And its record is on the opening night. Monthly Dec. 2, proved beyond all doubt that the "Baby Ruth" of blues, singer the Hessie Smith, can still withhold the popularity she has always withheld.
And we might go on record to say, only once since the new season at the Hijo's opened when the Silas Green show played the theater had such a crowd, jammed and crammed its way into the popular Fourth Ave. playhouse, such as it did for the Smith show. Why to the poor late corner who tried to gain admittance into the theater after the curtain of the show on the opening night? And the theater's onlyامmer's effecion suffocation even as early as 8:15 p.m. with a waiting line standing outside on the sidewalk.
This splendid season's offering of melody and mirth has all the charm of the hygome era. In addition to all the latest novelties which embrace modern surprises and the bus, word in jazz music. In all probability no production ever started in a Colored musical review of this style and rather can boast of possessing more novel features, unsurpassed surprises, mastoloni- amassment of talent, music, frivolity, scenic-investiture, dancing, jazz and synch�ated effluctions, wit, laughter, happiness and costume array than this particular offering. Twenty all-Colored artists bring to the fore the beauty and irresistible joys of America's own entertainment. "Steamboat Days." The show also boasts a wonderful whirling, dashing, falty chorus of youth and beauty, who know how to sing and dance and wear an array of attractive costumes. Among its all-star cast are such artists as Sam Davis, Wittie Holmes, Lloyd Collins, Bute Benhow, Hack Pack, Ethel Williams, Rootsy Swan.

APOLLO OF CHICAGO
T. O. B. A. HOUSE
Milton Starr, former president of the T. O. B. A. circuit, is due a new and worthwhile berth for T. O. B. A. attractions in the city of Chicago. The deal was closed on Wednesday, a conference with Emil Starr, production manager of the Apollo theater, James Tapas and Harold Abbott, owner and Mr. Starr, representing the director. Immediately upon his return from Europe Mr. Starr visited New York, where he met the director of his attention was called to Chicago, where things were everything but rosy, relative to a house in the Bronx. The house of a house in which T. O. B. A. attractions could play in Chicago was due to the presence of U.S. Grand and Monogram theater, and Martin Klein, who for years had charge of the Midwest offices of the Miller Miller fold and opened the Willard theater, taking the wheel attractions with him. When this failed to go, anger of the Koppi theater, Detroit. This left Chicago out as far as the circuit was concerned and the Miller Miller theater, which is still the policy in them.
After several attempts on the part of Mr. Starr to come to some definite conclusion, he has his disposition relative to the holding onto the franchise and no results sought in another house. Looking over the city fully, he was impressed with the Anello theater, 47th and Forrestal is now in what is called the Bibito. According to announcement given by Mr. Starr, all arrangements of a T. O. B. A. show and when asked what show would he be the problem with, Mr. Starr said that in all probability Jrn C. Miller's "Brownskin Models" would be the first wheel to play in the opening date is see for Jan.

Christmas Lament
Nevah had nuthin',
Don't want nuthin' but you, JIS YOU.
De sun don' shine, de bells don' chime,
De wint' shine at me, JIS ME!
I selfsell me,
An' all de while you smile at me, AT ME,
De wint' shine at me, DE raftah
Whar de wint' play,
An' if yo' smile, it stays awhile,
Ma heatha' a-hummin to de strummin'
De wint' shine at me, DE raftah
It don' mattha whar I go or I stay,
Dia I kno' when you erway,
Banjo seen you sew it,
Bird' shine an' brooks runnin';
Bullfrogs dey fergit t' frollick;
Guess I sortah takes wid collick
But wye yo' smile
AT ME—awhile,
Night it changes int' noontime;
Happy feelin' o'er me stealin',
It can't be beat!
I all de leabes dats on de trees
Hif wunt' shine, gin mine t' hol!
If evah stats dats in de sky
Wur dimu bright, an' mints t' buy;
I'd steal de dah cloud's silvah linin'
An place dem, sweet, rite at yo' feet—
But I ain' not nuthin',
I wint' had nuthin',
Don' want nuthin', but you,
JIS YOU!

It seriously affects the serenity of the world. Most of the unpleasantities with which our lives are pestered or infected can be traced to this business of attending to other people's business.
It started in the Garden of Eden so before that for God to permit God to run heaven to suit himself. After Lucifer's unceremonious and ignominious ejection from heaven, he assumed the guise of a serpent and wrigled having a delightful honeymoon until the serpent instituted itself into Eve's confidence and convinced her that God was withholding something from them.

their heritage of happiness and that is usually what they are to others who would meddle with the business of our homes and families.
Ever since that fateful event in the Garden of Eden no maid or swain, no man and wife, may hope to conduct their courtship or occupy their Garden of Eden unpooled.
Who is there but God with the authority to deny us the right to live our lives as we see it? It is the in�lenable right of the individual to choose his or her state, but what individual is permitted to make the choice without the interference of family, relatives and friends.
No matter what the nature of one's business, there is always a small army of neddiers to tell you how to live. When there is more young men than that, we might have the pleasure of doing as we should reach maturity that we might have the pleasure of doing as we pleased. Vain wish and desire. That time never comes. Always there are our family, relatives and friends. In this case, the law is not the same as our life, our life of conduct. The lawnnkers invent laws that tell us what we shall and shall not do. Then there are styles, customs, conventions and traditions to be ignored. I do not ever think it at our own risks. It is the great time to be inspired. What will you do? It is the threat that the meddler's hold always above our heads. It holds the double threat of condemnation and ostracism. Few of us have the courage to ignore it.
There may be times when we should interfere, when we should offer advice, when we should offer assistance, but it requires tact, diplomacy and intelligence and the matter which we are. Individuals with these valuations are more likely to be working with, and we, individuals, resent so quickly as outside interference in our business affairs, and because of this, we should hesitate and deliberate before pressuring that it comes within the scope of our business. We should consider business, business. The best advice is:
SUCCESS
S-elect the thing you wish to do,
U-use it.
C-erect your errors as you go.
C-ontant work will rule it.
E-xpel the thought, "it can't be done."
S-tand firm on that foundation.
S-ucced your ambition.
Success is your ambition.

Johnnie Collie, well known sportsman loved by everyone Who came to the home of him. He called self-negligible from the sounds of the old in the lands of John Wright at West Palm Beach, Dec. 10. Never in the history of the city, he was an enlightment of such a nighttime as did Johnnie Collie of West Palm Beach and if Johnnie had an enemy, he was the only man who had a son in life seemingly was that of an yeasemaker, and he died in that on public. An argument over not more than two years before he was an enlightened and another party were arguing and through anger knives were drawn. John Collie, the pencemaker, intertwined his own life with his son, John Wright's arm, who was one of his best friends. As the knife came down it inflicted while he seemed to be in the hand of the pencemaster, he generated deep into the aldominism envity and punctuated the small in-testions of overlooking such, perilous development of the death occurred. Raymond Wright, brother of John Wright, his wife and his wife immediately moved to the home of the old. John Collie was last requests when questioned as to the punishment the law intended meeting out the pence-related case. "It is not an incident, but of any time, to him," The funeral was the largest ever witnessed in West Palm Beach, and many surrounding the states and the city were to pay their last respects to a pal, a common-law and a small-scale order especially. Many automobiles from Miami were in evidence. Dr. Kelsey Pharr, the most prominent and most likely of the state, was to be a assistance possible to the family and the deceased. The passing to the Great Royal Johnnie Collie was the most important one of one of the great real follows that ever lived and true to the traditions of life, died as he was. Always known as the "beast of friends" he was thousands of friends along with his mother's wife, June: sister, Alice, and a broth of women. Mil will reach me from Hotel Dway, $41 N.

Hudgins, taking into consideration that the man was Colored and undoubtedly in the circumstances, refused to action.

BLACKBIRDS TAKE RACIAL PRIDE IN MERRYMAKING
BLACKBIRDS TAKE RACIAL PRIDE IN MERRYMAKING
Something of the spirit of Yuleide that runs so largely to mourry the dead and to mourn the ground by the "blackbirds" in their playing at the Stilted theater. The songs and music made me smile and always want to have "Moorites for folks of good will" but "Moorites for folks of good will" still always want to have an attitude is a little more significant and generally appreciated.
The average "Blackbird" takes on the role of consideration or merely does the average stage nerd who realizes that much of the reputation of his role is performance or performance font lights. They feel that their people work in the world at large as when they disply themselves in the serious business of whole-souled merrymaking. It is a great opportunity to more credit accruing to a race through this unselfconscious playing for it through an army of publicists.
"The featured "Blackbirdids" are especially alive to their response to the media. In the Hall: "I believe when the curtain goes up on our show, we are unfolding to all present I safe and secure my position in the understanding of my people. To be privileged to pour out my heart in a cheerful solo is to be privileged to headlines for that advertisement." It is Bill Robinson's confident aspiration to achieve real steps in progress as well for his race. "We Blackbirdids is to achieve real steps in progress only in so far as we do not take our own selves seriously," points out Robinson. "To give our hearts and souls to our people and our natural heritage, this is our pride. I say 'On with the dance!'" There are any mistaking the Inspired attitude of Aida Ward, who points out that the mission of the entertainer is the spread of good will. "We are the singer, 'is there anything better in life?' is it not teaching others to be happy. 'Good entertainment' is the phrase for the wheels of civilization.

The popular team of Walker and Walker radio the Sergei telling of the story of the gang to know that no will reach them week of the 16th at the Elmhurst theater, 11th Street, 1a., and the Globe theater, the Globe theater, Cleveland, Ohio.

IN OLD KAYSEE
By CHARLES O'NEAL
Kansas City, Mo.—The magnificent spectacle, "The King of Kings," had its premiere last Monday night at the Metropolitan Opera, one of 2,500 persons. The two acts of vauduelle practically went unnoticed. The picture drama begins with the suffering of Jesus, depicting full detail of the healing of the sick, the blind, the raising of Lazarus from the tomb, the raising of Jesus before Pilate, and the crucifixion. The outstanding point of this greatest of silent dramas was the fact that Jesus was condemned conjureously, and the law. It brings to light a lonely figure, standing out against the unhappy background of the world's culture.
As years run into centuries that this stands out increasingly tragic for. For to much of the earth since that night has come the thought which Mr. Sanders has rocked beneath his feet and durdens smothering out the sun and the griefs giving up their dead — sounded surely, this was the Son of God. Glancing through Roman law, I find that an accused was held to be innocent connected by majority of the Sanhedrin, at least 22 members of which judged deserving of punishment and condemned to die, he might for five years from the march to the place of execution and given a new hearing if a new witness could be found, or an old one, or money. But after the fifth postmen-ment, with no change in the verdict, court, execution was in inevitable.
Yet Jesus, through the supreme court of this wonderful system of jurisprudence, was arrested in the assassination assailant in Annas, arraigned at once in secret before Annas, and then before Caliph萨勒, beaten in the presence of such high officials as the assassin and the witnesses who differed widely as to their charges, and who did not at all testify of knowledge of accuracy, and who was found guilty of a charge not lodged against Him in the hearing before Pilate. Of itself, in each of these cases, Jesus was condemned to die, twice in the same night, at the time of a ceaset, and on a day before the Sab

LAW SHIFTS LINE-UP FOR A. U. GAME
PRAIRIE VIEW COACH IS AFTER COMBINATION TO WIN ON JAN.1ST

LAW
PRAIRIE VIEW
AFTER CO
TO WIN ON
Prairie View, Tex., Dec. 18.
—Elated over Prairie View's 20 to 6 victory over Paul Quinn last week. Coach Jimmy Law is satisfied that his last minute shift of players in order to bring out a winning combination against Atlanta university on New Year's day has worked.
The last couple of weeks have seen some of the most drastic changes made in the Panther line-up. The results of the Sam Huston and Paul Quinn games, which ended in Prairie View victories, caused the student body to become more than enthused over Prairie View's changes to stop Atlanta.
Law will not disguise the Prairie View State Normal line-up until just before the whistle blows. Notwithstanding the fact that he believes that he has about solved the offensive problem and has set to work on a still defense for the Georgia team, Law is taking no chances and new men are being injected into the scrimmage each afternoon. It is the case of the survival of the fittest.
Eggerton Gregg, hitherto almost unknown, has suddenly forged to the front as a two-second man, twelve 170 pounds and comes from Eggin, Tom, and can pass, receive, point and run.
Law is counted on as a triple threat man against A. U.
On New Year's afternoon at 2:50 Shelton Mason will start the game at full in place of J. J. Marks, the plunging fighter. Mason comes from Houston, where he played on the Booker T. Washington high school eleven.
Law has shifted Marks to half-back and the combination is touted Lewis with the visitors Lewis is at quarter.
The biggest surprise of the switching of players came when Law shifted Banks to the second squad and placed P. M. Williams, who pounds 210 pounds, in Banks' position. Prince and Dates will work on that side of the line with Williams and for the past two weeks Law has put his attention on the other side of the line which he is trying to build up to. He has set a few stunts that A. M. has, as 'Tuskegee did.'
Law drives his men at top speed for a couple of hours, then sends them around the track for several taps before he calls for them to hit toes. He has also dark the electric lights burn late. There Law and his Prairie View 20; Paul Quinn, 6
In a fast clean game Prairie View defeated Paul Quinn 20 to 6.
The victors showed power at the time, and clipped off end runs that netted two downs in the first quarter by Mark and Turner. Paul Quinion fought hard, displacing the last 12 to 10. The hat's ended 12 to 0.
Final quizzes take a touchdown in the third quarter on trick plays. View plausible through the line for another touchdown in the fourth period. The game ended 20 to 6 in favor of Pleasure View.
assistants go over A, U, plays and pighaing, a defense stop, pighaing.
Next week Prairie View's last workout before the student body will be given Christmas day. After that the practice will be in secret.
For the first time in the history of the school the ghost ball, a football painted white will be used after the practice will be drilled in following the ball.
Law remembers that fumbling in the early part of the game with Lungston hurt the Texas team. He also remembers that there is still some work to be done in perfecting the game, but break up Atlanta's sensational passing attack. This was a week point in Prairie View's defense that cost them the game with Lungston which ended in a 19 to 19 tic, when bad boys taken Lungston could have been beaten the first time in three years. The largest crowd that ever raw a game of this kind in Texas will be on hand on New Year's day, and, according to reports reaching back, like the athletic department, Atlanta will have but few rooters.
Houston, Tex., Dec. 18—Tribune View State Normal alumni, working in the interest of the coming intersectionsal New Year's day game between university elevers, have left no stone unturned to entertain the visitors. In fact the whole week will be given over to parties and dances. The personnel of the committee is as follows: J. C. sanderson, general chairman; H. C. Sells, reception committee; Dr. W. J. Howard, housing committee; H. T. Taylor, publicity; Col. O. P. DeWalt, on all committees. Fraternities and sorceries will vie with each other for honors during the week. The committee offered a low round trip rate from all points along the line. In each city a chairman has been selected to head a delegation. From Paul Quinn, located at Waco, from Bishop and Vice; both at Marshall, from Austin, large delegations of faculty, students and town folks will come.
The Atlanta team and the special train which includes four sleepers three day coaches and a thinner, will arrive Sunday, Dec. 20, and will proceed to the campus, presenting plans, although these may be changed and the team stop over here. A number of Georgia, Tuskegee and Montgomery people will make

DRILL IN RAIN
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 18. Despite the fact that five of his men who played in the Tuskegee game are still weak from attacks of the "flu," Head Coach Walter Aiken and his assistant, Walker, issued a call Monday for every man to turn out in uniform and as a result all were out trying for the team that will make the trip into Texas, the first Texas invasion of an Atlanta team, on New Year's day.
In Monday's downpour of rain Alken drove his men through their paves. On the min-sanked clay field, red, the tops of their needs to be covered, the men maroon warriors sld and tled to get a toffold. They tackled and found like tiger against each other, the tops of their showing against Tuskegee. Up an offensive that proved to have been timed too late, these stalwarts are determined to leave a name behind when they leave Texas, and are faced with who thinks and talks about anything but a victory over Prairie View, yet they respect the strength of the Texas boys and are looking for the Alken will probably announce his starting line-up next week.

It was pointed out by the commission that they desire to decide as the state has a law against black and white fighters meeting in the ring. They hold out the hope that the law making body will kill this law, which has handicapped both promoters and fighters in the past and their influence in bringing this

With a team of veterans, Wiley on the strength of having scored more points against their opponents than Bluefield sets up a claim. Wiley had more points scored against them than Bluefield.
On the other hand, Bluefield after running up a 129 to 0 score against Morristown college failed to equal Wiley's record, but Bluefield's line has been crossed but three times this season.
It is regrettable that the two elevens could not meet, but both must respect the other's ability enough to quit sending out releases-calling themselves national champions.
Then, too, Wiley must remember that Langston has also gone undefeated and has had to play most all of their games away from home. Langston tied Wiley, 7 and 7., on the strength of having suffered no defeats they, too, might justly lay a claim to the same title as Wiley or Bluefield.
At present there is no such animal as a national champion as far as our football world is concerned, so why try to fool the gentle public? FAY.

18 Get the Coveted "W" From Wiley
Marshall, Tex., Dec. 17.—Eighteen men have been voted the coveted "W" by the committee on athletics at Wiley for service rendered in the recently closed football campaign.
The championship Wildcats will be awarded sweaters and gold footballs at the annual football banquet that will be held in the college refectory on Friday, Jan. 18.
The championship will receive the awards: Captain Lewis Reed of Brownwood, Tex.; L. D. Livingston, Fort Worth, Tex.; Dan Calhoun, Brownwood, Tex.; T. D. Kinnon, White Rock, Tex.; T. V. Redd, Carlsbad, Tex.; T. G. Carlts, Brownwood, Tex.; Alfred Gray, Marshall Tex.; Hallley Balding, Chicago, Ill.; Lucus Davis, Houston, Tex.; James Evans, Marshall, Tex.; Ben Carvall, Corsicana, Tex.; Prices Young, Oklahoma City, Okla.; Olmert, Marshmant, Tex.; John Johnson, Tulsa, Okla.; Klisby Tarver, Deamont, J.

The athletic committee led by Dr. Dogan is preparing for one of the greatest demonstrations that has ever been recorded Wiley athletes. The tests will come from all sections of the state to be assessed as well as a representative from the Southeastern conference. From the plans laid out by the committee one would be safe in saying that nothing is too good for the Wiley to her second consecutive championship of the Texas conference. A championship next year for the pupils of Long will bring the conference shield to Wiley permanently, and many of the raid fans are now in the stadium that now hangs in the Wiley shape is there for good.

Mound City Loses, 50-1, to Cairo Hi
Cairo, Ill., Dec. 10—Cairo downed Mound City, 42 to 11. The Mound City five fought bravely and showed plenty of pep and the first 10 minutes they made the Cairo boys realize they did not have a plaything. The quarter ended 5 with Cairo on the long end. The beginning of the second quarter Cairo started her usual passing game and the Mound City five fell easy prey. Summers and Sapo stood out Mound City while Coinin, Dovek, Hards, and Croumbough were performing for Cairo. Cairo, Ill., Dec. 14—Cairo trimmed Metropolis 50 to 1.

WOMEN'S SPORTS
Paing Girls Quintet
Starts Hard Practice
Augusto, Ga., Dec. 14. — Coach Blessing ended the first week of practice of the girls' basketball team at Paline college and expressed herself as being well satisfied with the showing made by her charges.
The first week was taken up in setting-up exercises, instruction on how to play the guard, center and forward position and in the forming of various combinations of players in an effort to place a winning sexet on the court.
The coach will be forced to build an entire new team this season, as only three of last season's varsity squad have returned. The others were lost by graduation and injuries sustained. L. Blankard, captain of the varsity squad, was successful years, was lost by graduation together with Davis, Mills and Copeland. Hunter, Jumping cen., on last year's squad, will probably be on account of stress and G. Willis, who will be out for similar reasons.
T. Williams, junior college, has been elected to the vacant made

Fullback Is Captain at Bluefield
Bluefield, W. Va., Dec. 15.—At the annual football banquet tendered the Bluefield institute football team by the athletic department, Artis Graves of Short Creek, W. Va., was elected unanimously as leader for 1929. Graves plays full-back.
Next year will be the last year for the hard-plunging Bluefield back, as he will graduate with the degree of Bachelor of Arts from the class of 1929. For the last two years his playing has been one of the high spots of the meteoric rise of the Big Blue. He also has the distinction of having never played in a loss. He is a graduate of the field. His work on the defense and offense has been of the highest caliber. A great blucker, terrific blunger, as well as an accurate meter, Graves has been in all games of the most consistent men on the team.
The members of the squad, with a few boosters and visitors and the members of the athletic council, assembled in the reception room of the hotel, where they were served a delicious dinner under direction of Miss Maybelle Smith of that department.
The most touching events of the evening were the farewell remarks of the coach, who will be the last who finish with this year's class. Coach Jefferson paid a high tribute to these two men and explained respect for them as being because they had come to Bluedfeld at the time of graduation, and had enough in him to sack while they climbed from the bottom to the top.

6-Cylinder Loses Bout to Battling C. C.
Daytona Beach, Fla., Dec. 11.—Dattling C. C. Jacksonville light heavyweight, outpotted Six Cylinder of West Palm Beach at the Johnson St. arena tonight, and settled the controversy which has been prevalent as to which of these two fighters shall have the distinction of meeting the brother of the late Tiger Flowers at the Daytona Beach arena on Christmas day. This is the second victory C. C. has over Six Cylinder. In a previous battle he scored a technical knockout. C. C. was the aggressor all through the 10 rounds and put over a working light. Six Cylinder was successful in showing a spurt in the fourth, fifth and sixth rounds, but this was not enough of an advantage to give him the decision.
In the somnifinal Kill Clemons of Daytona Beach satisfied the crowd by scoring a technical knockout over Black Eagle of West Palm Beach. It seems that the jace was too swift for Eagle and when Clemons found the pit of Eagle's stomach and countered with a right to the chin in the fourth, the Eagle called it a day and cumbered through the ropes.

BABY JOE GANS EASILY WINS FROM CHARLEY ROSEN IN WEST
Thirty Report for Tuskegee Quintet; to Play in Chicago
Los Angeles, Calif., Dec. 12.—There was deceptive sleep power in the rubbery and poly-poly body of Charley Rosen, New York Jewish boy, at the Olympic last night.
The easterner caught Baby Joe Gans' delivery for 10 straight innings—never having a chance to get in front—but there was no bend in his knees or glass in his chin.
Although tired and battered, he was always upright.
At some stages of the route Gans wasn't as impressive as his constituents had hoped he would be in his home coming. But he showed flashes of greatness and finished like a runaway freight going down a gulf.
His 10th round performance appeared to be a criterion of what he can do when taking his best shots. He pounded Rosen, dizzy and sick, all over the ring in a driving two-
In the middle rounds he lapsed back into his old cautious style—that of attacking only when pressed. At times Baby Joe gives you the impression that he is sorry for his opponent and lets up. But when he does level he is fast and accurate and has a stuff offering in either
Easy for Gans
Boson was hardly a touch but he was never in the running. As a matter of fact he was more or less of a punching bag. He did little lift the arm behind him. In the early rounds Charley tapped to the body fully effective, but as the battle wore on he was too busy trying to defend himself to grill out his arm. Gans is one of those fighters who find it rather hard to hash out in the full fury of combat. Baby Joe is his aide at a gym. He was in the eastern tip he was helped his fighting instinct and he leans toward real men fighting more than he did a year ago. Gans weighed 140 pounds and Boson 142.5. Central Ave, was out in full bloom. It was their night to bow, and they bowled. The victory of Baby Joe over Gans was a joy for them. The dark belt turn-out swelled the crowd and the house was better than the average run of late. The payoff was made at close to the enemy's full fill, then generously filled than the main floor.
Guns looked very good in the first three rounds. His right was lightning fast and straight to the mark. But Rosen is a tough customer and hard to Joe slowed in the fourth fifth and sixth, and Rosen did his best to get in his best licks. He had little luck, however.

Tuskegee Institute, Ala.. Dec. 15.—Thirty cage candidates reported to the floor of the Collis P. Huntington gymnastium on Dec. 12 in answer to Coach Abbott's call for aspirants for the 1929 basketball edition.

was a soft target—but wouldn't fall over—in these heats.
The 10th was a thriller, with Gans traveling like a champion. Jack Hickey in early time of it. It was a rootin', tootin', good old-fashioned card—like Jack Dory used to stage at the old Vernon shed. Hickey over Young Sam Larger and Young Tommy Lee from Phoenix, who subbed for Paul De Hate, boxed six rounds to a draw in the semifinal. Elks, a newcomer, made a hit. He was pushed into the spot, when Paul De Hate won the first three rounds handily, but the Colored boy was outfought in the last three. Elks made him quit in every exchange in the final. Bito Bito won over Jack Miller—a technical kave in the fourth.
Some one told Bitto to be a showman and enqulate Bad Boy Bobby La Salle. Bitto overplaced his part. It was misdirected goal.
He acted like a fit subject for Patton as he hopped around and made faces. The only real color in his setup, was centered in his red shoes. Miller was outclassed and was down twice in the third. He was practically out for the last two games in the fourth. Joe Rivers stopped it. Rivers, by the way, had a wild evening hooting, punches. Sammy Aguirre won four straight rounds from Frankie Burns Teenoview. He won the Crown in four and Claude Varner won from Ray Rodriguez in four.

CHICAGOANS
Last Minute Rally Is Losers' Waterloo
Detroit, Mich., Dec. 15.—The fans witnessed four minutes of thrilling basketball with the Detroit A. A.'s traditional comeback in the fourth period, after trailing Brock's Chicagoans, to win, 31 to 26.
For three periods it looked as if Chicago had the game sewed up, no one seemed able to stop Long and Semo with their clever felling, brilliant passes and shots from all angles. In the second period Detroit missed several chances to score with Cruzz loose under the basket, his teammates elected to shoot long and missed. The Chicagoans had a few minutes of stalling in the second with clever handling and fancy passing of the ball in their half of the court, then all at once they broke through and worked a pretty play. Ramsay to Brock to Long.
Near the end of the third peril
Chicago again started stalling, the

New York, Dec. 16.—Canegara Lee, Harlem weigtweight, came into his own last night when he stood to toe to toe with Vince Dundee, Baltimore, and the divisional choreographer, through every one of the final 10 rounds in their bout before a good crowd at the Olympia A. C. and wound up the contest in a rousing draw. It was a hectic duel, that Dundee weighed 151, five pounds more than Lee. The customers were treated to another surprise when Harry Smith, Dave Brown's Harlem middleweight, time over Joey Knapp, Yorkville's collegian and former amateur, in the semifinal 10. Smith, surprisingly, won all the way without trouble. Smith weighed 158. Knapp 157. He with little trouble from Tommy Abooh, 113. Filipin, in the six-rounder.

Intercellagium Athletics Conference)
Montgomery, Ala., Dec. 15. The 16th annual meeting of the Southeastern Intercollegiate Athletic conference was held at the Alabama State Normal school, Montgomery, Ala., Dec. 14 and 15.
The following representatives from the conference membership were present: L. R. Harper and W. T. Alken, Atlanta University, B. H. Kier, and L. F. Forbes, Morehouse College; Dr. H. D. Canady, Morris Brown university; S. B. Taylor and C. W. Perry, Clark University; Henderson A. Johnson, Fisk University; Harry J. Long, Tennessee A. and I. State College; Wallace C. Hawkins, Knoxville college; L. W. Ford, Miles Memorial College; L. B. Brags and F. A. Byrd, Florida A. and M. College; W. H. Kindle, W. N. Rivers, G. G.

Dahms, Tuskegee Institute, Captain W. F. Mujill and Corporal S. S. Sellers, 24th Infantry, Fort Benning, Ga. Lane college, Jackson, Tenn., and State A. and M. Normal college, Alabama, also sent representatives to the meeting.
The basketball, baseball and football schedules for 1929 were arranged and decision was reached that the usual procedure would be fol-
of officials. The officials for the football games are assigned at the meeting of the coaches' association which is held at the Butler St. Y. M. C. A. Atlanta, Ga. in September of each year. Each Cloe L. Abbott announced that the second annual tennis tournament and the third annual relay carnival, sponsored by Tuskegee institute, would be held in the Atlanta University campus. The conference voted to send representatives to these two events. The conference sanctioned the track and field meet to be sponsored by the University authorities of the 24th United States infantry. Fort Bennin Ga. May 18, Invitation was extended by the commanding officer of the 24th infantry through captain W. F. Magill, athletic director. Arrangements for a basketball tournament to be held in Atlanta, Ga. March 1 and 2 were placed in the Atlanta University campus. Min. Morhouse college: S. B. Taylor. Clark university: W. H. Aylken and L. J. Harper, Atlanta university, and Dr. H. D. Candy, Morris Brown university, the tournament will be bearing on the championship standing of teams.
There was a discussion of an all-star Southeastern conference football team playing a similar team from the C. I. A. A. after the close of the regular playing season in 1925. No matter what was taken in regard to this matter. Because of the fact that the teams were so evenly matched in baseball and football, the conference voted not to declare a championship team for the 1925 season, but basketball championship for 1928 was awarded to Clark university of Atlanta. The conference disposed of the summer baseball matter which has come up annually for discussion by the conference, hotel, steamboat or industrial teams where they may be employed, but the previous ruling as to organized baseball or playing under verbal or written contract is to be rigidly enforced. The conference directed the secretary-receiver to thank Frank A. Young for his interest in all features of the athletic activities of the conference and to also thank him for the team. Young challenges the team to win championship football team in 1925.
It was thought by the conference that there has been a decided trend upward in the management of athletic colleges in the sportmanship on the part of the players and spectators.
The following officers were elected: J. R. Frege, World A, and M. college, Tahahassee, Fl. president; Henderson A. Johnson, Fisk university, Nashville, Tenn., first vice presi-

Basketball Scorers Attention!
The Chicago Defender uses three columns in basketball scoring. The first, designated by "B" meaning baskets made or field goals as some call it; the second, "F" meaning free throws made, and the third and last column, "P" meaning personal fouls committed. Do not confuse the third column with total points. By all means see that the total of column headed "P" and column headed "F" correspond with correct score and see that positions are placed behind each player's name.

LITTLE BROWN BOY FROM CUBA KAYOHS SANGOR
By FRANK A. YOUNG
The little brown boy from Cuba, Armand Santiago, knocked Joey Sangor, the pride of Milwaukee, out in the second round of their scheduled 10-round fight at the Coliseum Monday night after one minute and 30 seconds of fighting in that round.
And the knockout not only surprised the Milwaukee and Wisconsin followers of Sangor, but it stunned the crowd for a second. Then they knocked out the island who had flattened the boxer who a little earlier in the year had knocked out Buddy Taylor of Terre Haute in the same ring.
So whatever glances Joey's manager may have had for Tod Morgan's crown—and that bout was supposed to be the New Year's day—those glances as well as hopes were knocked cock-eyed.
It would be unfair to Armand to say that Joey was overconfident. The Cuban was the more confident. The Cuban was smiling when Dawy Miller called the fighters to the ring for instructions.
In the very first round, especially the early part, Sangor looked the fighter that caused his followers to run away. Sangor and 5 to 2 at the rideside on him.
The Cuban couldn't get going and took several wallops in the bread basket that for a few seconds looked as though they had taken the steam out of his waist.
He was wide open, but oh, how he could hit when in the closing minute of the round he found and staggered Sangor with three rights to the jaw, and where it was realized that if Sangor and to box he would be a beaten man.
At the gong of round two he came

A right to the jaw sent Jeep down for the count of nine and when he came up his jaw was unprotected by the armor and fell to the floor.

Malloy finally got on the Shuttle Callahan-Ted Ross fight was just about what the fans thought it would be, only either fighter could have been knocked out. It was one of those slam, bang, bang, bang. Malloy was not as strong as we used to see back in the days of the old barroom bask fights.
Both were knocked down. Both were all in long before the scrap ended. Both bled. At times had birdies and birdies would have sung." But Ross outstayed Callahan for seven rounds and to save a murder Callahan's seconds tossed in the towel and wrote finish on the ring career of the middleweight. Louishan, world's light heavyweight champion, didn't look like any champion. Big Boy Peterson of Minneapolis, who has a victory over Otto Von Porat, stayed the rounds, although he lost the decider.

It must be that the boys, with the holiday season so near, had their main interests centered elsewhere. So the maples can postpone their cries for mercy until after the birth of that lusty infant, Mr. 1929.
Quinn Chapel opened the week of play on Monday night with a three-game victory over the valiant Providence team, a group that is in the league for its first time. The victory permitted Quinn to remain in second place for at least another week. Captain Ike Rivers, anchor, filled his position to perfection. Houston Thomas and Whitner did the best work for the West side boys.
Tuesday night saw Bethesda take two of three from Progressive, the one game dropping Bethesda to fourth place. Neither team had its full line-up present, illness having stepped in to take a hand.

However, the Cosmos came back like a whirlwind and rolled up scores of 815 and 842 to sweep the second and third games. Captain Ernie Thomasis shot games of 161, 151 and 194 to lead the Saints in scoring and his teammate, Gus Geddes, rolled a 191.

The Chicagoans' victory again might be attributed to the superior jumping of Charley Herter, the family voice who qualified for the championship each time and was able to put into practice his team plays.
