ARABIC ORDER GOESTO COURT ON EGYPTIANS
Claim They Have No Right to Ritual
After a week of gayety, parades and other activities during their convention in Chicago, consternation was thrown into the camp of the Ancient Egyptian Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine when news reached them that a bill of injunction had been filed against them by the Ancient Arabic Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, through their attorney, J. Chester Kitchen.
The bill, niled under caption of Ancient Arabic Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine of North and South America vs. Ceasar R. Blake, Imperial Potentate of the Ancient Egyptian Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine of North and South America, was presented before Walter P. Steffen, judge of the superior court of Cook county last Thursday morning.
While in its petition to the court, alleged that the Egyptian order had no right to use its rituals, emblems, nor to wear the regalia that they are now wearing. They set up a property rights lawsuit to preserve property rights of the Ancient order.
Attorney S. A. T. Watkins, attorney of the case, appeared before Judge Sticeen on behalf of his order. Atty Watkins told the court that they had perfect right to be heard in the case, the pheromala of the mystic order. Judge Sticeen ordered both sides to be ready for the trial. The court and the case was assigned to Judge Dennis Sultan of the superior court.
Prays for Temporary Injunction
Atty. Kitchen, on behalf of the Arabic order, prayed to the court to grant a temporary injunction restraining the Egyptian order from granting certain rituals and other property, which the complainants allege are their rightful property, but the court, in the opinion of the summer docket, did not review the facts set up in the bill. The petition stated that the Arabic order derived their power to set up the court, and that the petition further pointed out that this order of Asia was the only order with power or authority to grant a patent of power and that the petition further pointed out that this order of Asia was the only order with power or authority to grant a patent of power and that authority was granted to each country. It is alleged in the bill that Jones set up temples and that the complainants are members of those organizations. They allege in their bill that any other organization that attempts to confer the degree of the Mystic Shrine in order to make the appearance that these defendants (Egyptian order) are simply using the names of the Ancient Arabic Order of the Mystic Shrine in order to make the appearance that they are a separate and distinct order.
Egyptian Order Silent
Caesar R. Blake, imperial potentate of the Ancient Egyptian Order of the Mystic Shrine, when interviewed said that his order was safe and the suit of the order was a program of the order. Mr. Blake stated that his order had just won a victory over the white Shrines, who for several years have waged an unsuccessful attack from using the names that they now go under and from using their uniforms, rituals and other property. Mr. Blake stated that they had to show the order and would continue to stand the test. Several members of the Egyptian Order of the Mystic Shrine interviewed by Defender reporters stated that they are not the order and that on Sept. 17, when the case comes up for hearing in the superior court, the public will know the true history of this order. Among the members of the Chicago order of the Arabic Shrine are Cleveland Washington, J. C. Heilig, Preston Russell, J. H. Snowdon and Marion Rose. Rose was about 15,000 members of this order in America. John H. Smith of New York City is the imperial potentate. The last annual session of the order was held in Chicago. The Egyptian Order of the Mystic Shrine has grown by leaps and bounds and for 30 years they have made notable progress. Blake, the imperial potentate, a general educational program has been prepared for the year 1929-30. The Egyptian order has won worldwide fame for the caller of its memoir and for the program which they foster.

MAY INVOKE COURT WRITS AT ELK MEET
Wilson Opponents See Czarism Tactics
Rumors are current that the greater part of the activities of the Elk conventions for the past seven years will be aired in the federal courts of New Jersey when members of the organization gather in Atlantic City Monday, Aug. 26, for their annual meet.
It is hinted that the high-handed method of Hon. Finley Wilson, of the grand lodge ruler of his Elders serving notice that he will suspend certain grand lodge officers, and the threat of wholesale suspension of duly qualified lodges whose delegation is appalled, but noting that he has caused this probable procedure.
James C. Martin, grand treasurer of the Elks and exiled ruler of the Port Bearbarn lodge, Chicago, IL, has been appointed grand exiled ruler of his possible suspension. This notice is said to be predicated upon an interview given out by Mr. Martin in which this will show that checks have been drawn on the grand treasurer for large sums of money in the name of a gentleman who is now a candidate from the grand exiled ruler these checks, after drawn and properly signed, be returned to the grand exiled ruler himself for final disposition, the method may not be desirable, but it does show the carmarks of suspicion.
It appears that the above statement irritated the grand exalted ruler to the extent that he be threatened to deprive her vacant. The grand treasurer, in sustaining his charges, submits two checks made payable to James M. Ellis, the treasurer directing him to forward the checks in question to the grand exalted ruler instead of forwarding them to the treasurer whom they were drawn to. These two checks amounted to $2,031.00.
This and other transactions which appealed to the Ellis organization, he surrounded the leading foreign nation, the country, who are demanding new and different leadership. They contend that the Ellis organization must be responsible for private corporation for the promotion of the wealth and prosperity of any one individual. It is further contended that Ellis is a member of the order that seven years of service of the lodge to one man promotes monarchy, which in turn constitutes the organization of any constituted body organized upon democratic principles.
While the Ellis lodge had its birth in the city of New York, by those who are opposing the design of Finley Wilson, that this charity must not center itself on any one

EXPOSE 'FRAME-UP' ON BOY AT TRIAL
YOUTH "NOT GUILTY" BUT IS SENTENCED
Assault Charge Flops in Courtroom
Centerville, Teem., Aug. 23. -Turley Wright, 20-year-old youth on trial for his life on a charge of criminal assault here in circuit court Wednesday, was saved from death when two of the state prosecuting attorneys, Robert Brown and Conner Bates, quit the case in disgust stating that Wright had been "framed" by his accusers, Mrs. Zora Johnson Lynn, 55-year-old white woman and her two granddaughters.
The retirement of the state's attorneys from the prosecution threw the packed courtroom into confusion and it took some time for the 100 national guardsmen, sent here to prosecute from mob violence, to quiet the crowd.
Given Ten Years
The jury, although the prosecution dropped its case, sentenced the youth to ten years in the penitentiary for the alleged criminal assault. The jury also ordered a new trial would be made after the penitentiary verdict was pronounced. The militiamen sent here by Gov. Rick Snyder, the governor, courtroom as soon as the verdict was announced. Adit-Gen. W. C. Boyd had Wright under his personal supervision and left with him for Nashville, where he was against the prisoner, for the revelation that three white women testified falsely against him abated the mob spirit that was prevalent until Wiley. The verdict stunned Wright, who said he expected to be acquitted. Spechters also were surprised. Many of them, including lawyers, expressed concern that the verdict would after the dramatic developments of the day, which saw the prosecution shattered when Mrs. Lynn and her two granddaughters were the few on record in the South where a white woman accused a man of criminal assault and then saw him receive a penalty for criminal assault for the penalty for criminal assault carries only the death penalty.
Sought Fair Verdict
Defense attorneys asked for a directed verdict of not guilty when the case was given the jury. Judge I C. Gordon explained that the jury would not permit a "sentence of extreme penalty to stand." Judge Hobbs explained the verdict and said the jury was absolutely certain he would not permit a "sentence of extreme penalty to stand." The minimum sentence, at 10 years, the minimum sentence, Criminal assault in Tennessee carries only the death sentence unless the jury itself fixes the sentences. When the jury assault, a jury has the privilege of considering circumstances and lessening the sentence. The verdict, because it was the first of its kind, confused even attorneys, who contended under Tennessee statutes Wright must either be freed, electrocuted or sentenced to life imprisonment. Hattie Plunkett, Mrs. Lynn's granddaughters, who had testified they witnessed Wright's attack last June on the widow, today told the court they had sentenced her to life imprisonment if their grandmother's home the night of the alleged attack. Mrs. Lynn also admitted her testimony that Wright held a pistol on her granddaughters' home. Brown and Bates heard Tuesday that two youths had spent most of the night of the alleged attack with Mrs. Gordon and Miss Plunkett, and (Continued on Page 3)

This article is the sixth of a series by a Chicago writer, who was until recently a member of the bureau of information of the Chicago World's Fair. Each one has been written from the viewpoint of those belonging to the white race, and deals with some specific phase of the race question in Chicago.
BEING SOME NOTES ON THAT MELTING POT OF
THE RACES—THE PUBLIC LIBRARY
It was 4:30 of a dark, dreary afternoon that I happened into the reference room on the fourth floor of Chicago's public library. Outside the shopping crowds were hurrying busward and trainward under a variety of umbrellas that would have rivaled any rainbow. Within it was an ideal day for reading or studying.
As I walked the length of the large room, I noticed every table was crowded with people. The chairs were all taken and in some instances companions, of those sitting down leaned on the table and read from the same book.
In front, where the books ride up façade in department in dumb waiters and are called for by those who have ordered them, there was a line, two deep, waiting, besides those who sat huddled together on the table. One side. True a representative gathering, I thought, as I made my way over to the corner nearest the bench. There I could see everything easily, partitions off that end of the room, were some seven or eight young men taking orders for books and delivering the loks as fast as they arrive, clear and far-far-reaching voice, stood at the counter most of the time and called the names of those who were waiting for books.
"I heard him say, looking around for the owner of the name," Carter! "A tall, neatly dressed Colored youth left the wall, against which he had been sitting, had a bowtie clear over to the counter. A brief but interesting dialogue took place."
"Plutarch's Lives' isn't in," said the young man behind the counter, Antheology of Modern Verse."

The Colored boy was plainly disappointed. "I've tried four times to get Plutonus Lives" and it's always asserted. "Guess I have to buy a copy." "Need it in some course?" queried the other young man. "Just want to read it again. I like it." Which is something of an argument

I watched the boy take his books around the time of the counter to have them charged and then depart with them under his arm. His face was carnest, and he looked at the books as if they held something very precious for him. Where he had gone I glanced around the room once more to see if there were Colored people at the tables. There were. In fact, about one-fourth of those in the room were Colored, and they were reading away.

BANK BANDITS GRANTED STAY AT 11TH HOUR
Judge Robert Gentzel of the criminal court Wednesday granted another stay of execution for Lafron Fisher, Leonard Shadlow and Leon Brown, convicted for the murder of Martin French, aged guard at the Franklin Trust and Savings bank, 35th St. and Michigan Ave., last January. French was killed when he refused to put up his hands during a robbery of the bank. Brown, Fisher and Shadlow were arrested two days later and identified as the robbers. Stays of execution have been granted to the convicted men twice before the trial began. They were electrocuted at midnight, Aug. 16, but the action of Judge Gentzel gives them a lease on life, which extends until Oct. 11. Attorney Richard A. Westbrooks presents for the defense a brief and abstract to the supreme court early this week.
Case Without Precedent
The principal contention of the defense is that the jurors were permitted to listen to crime news broadcasted by the media, and influence their decision. If the supreme court upholds this contention a new page will be written in the laws of the state, and the lawyers throughout the country are awaiting the finding of the Illinois supreme court. Albert Hare, the alleged head of the three condemned men were alleged to be members, was sentenced to life imprisonment. He was charged with having instigated the robbery. Mr. Hare was indicted as an assessor to the fact. Melvin Jenkins, the fourth member of the robber gang proper, pleaded guilty and also was given a fifth member, has never

Paris, France, Aug. 23.—Positive denial that there is a color line in his establishment was made by the manager of La Coupole to Robert S. Abbott, editor and publisher of The Chicago Defender, when he visited that cafe while on his trip here. It is the Americans who are to blame.

was made by the manager of La Coupole to Robert S. Abbott, editor and publisher of The Chicago Defender, when he visited that cafe while on his trip here. It is the Americans who are to blame, R. S. Abbott declared the manager. La Coupole came very much into the limelight recently because of its refusal to admit M. Alexis, Haitian minister, and the Princess Mansour Daoud of Egypt to the dance hall on account of color. The manager of La Coupole and Mrs. Roberta Daddys Crawford of Chicago went to La Coupole as the guests of Prince Kojo Touvalou of Dahomey. When the party arrived at the door after dining in the cafe they were welcome and positedness characteristic of the better class of French establishments. The manager himself came forward to greet them and conducted them to the best seats in the luxurious night club. When questioned by Mr. Abbott about the barring of M. Alexis and the allegation that he drew the color in order to Americanize them, he explained:
"Certain Americans who do not like Colored people have been paying my employees not to admit or to serve Negroes. I am very much grieved in the incident and I have taken steps to see that the offense is not repeated."
"This Is France"
He added: "This is France and all races of mankind are welcome in my place. You may see them in my wife, the French, and Mrs. Countie Cullen, Mrs. W. E. B. DuBois, Bengala, the noted actor, and others come here all the time, and they tell you themselves that they are in the management of La Coupole believes in living up to the best French traditions and this means no color discrimination, but justice for all men and women.

Deathbed Confession
Reveals Truth

Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 23.—Aged and broken in health there sits today among the members of his family from whom he was separated 18 long years, old Jim Richardson, waiting patiently and hopefully that the Georgia legislature will pass a bill to pay him $2,700 in recompense for 18 years in prison for a murder he did not commit.
Old Jim, broken in body, mind, and in spirit, came out of his convict card too hard to be regenerated and today he is home in Rockdale Park, a suburb, unable to work and providing a burden on the family which was without his help. He was going through the prime of life behind prison walls.
But Richardson is not remorseful. He is too overjoyed at his freedom. He holds millement toward no one. Only loathing.
On a dark night in the early part of this century William Smith (white), a convict guard in the town of Bolton, a suburb of Atlanta, was found murdered. The police were mystified. Smith, from all appearances had been drinking, but there was no indication of a affair with the murder. No motive could be found.
Start Big Man Hunt
A posse started on one of the greatest man hunts in the history of this section, it is said. Somehow it came, hard-working Colored man living a short distance from Smith's home, Jim too, had been drinking and admitted that fact when interviewed by a two-tiered and Jim was taken to jail, charged with the murder of Smith, without any evidence whatsoever against him. He was alone. He had no friends. He had no laborer and it took his every cent to provide for his home and family, so the employing of a lawyer to defend him was out of the question. Jim went to court and the lawyer of little ability and doubtful reputation. In fact, a white man had been killed and justice for a black man was out of the question in the case. He would have a better chance of escaping the death penalty if he entered a plea of guilt and seek mercy, though Jim himself insisted he should plead not guilty. In his sorrow, Richard son took the advice of his court-appointed lawyer and entered a plea of guilt and an appeal for mercy which won for him the sentence of life imprisonment and the charges of the lasted lasted only 25 minutes.
Was Beaten Often
So Jim Richardson went to prison. In those days and some places now, prison meant day after day, week after week, detention, toll and abuse, and cruelty. Georgia, like other southern states, had its convict lease system, and Richardson was leased to a mining company in the Tennessee mountain. He went to the mine. His daily task was fixed at five tons and when he was unable to produce it he was sent to a boss as they were called, without any clothes whatsoever. Jim also states that he had seen men beaten to death and heard nothing more from it. Through ten long days he pit daily. Sick or well, he had to bring out that five tons daily or receive the consequence, which no man wants. Richardson grew older his strength, the authorities were convinced that he was unable to go on at the mine, so he was transferred to a turpentine farm in South Georgia, where there were farms and his works almost as gruelling. But he kept his head highs and stuck to his work. There he remained for four long years. The turpentine farm, Jim was sent to Macon in Bibb county, to the Stevens pottery, where he worked hard under an inhuman captain, stricter perhaps than any other. Life, Richardson thought, was almost unbearable, but he curled on. For many years the leasing of convicts in Georgia had been bitterly opposed by the richtown council. An investigation had been made and all of them asked that it be abolished. Finally it was and the convicts were sent to prison farms and changgung camps. Jim Richardson was assigned to a road-building camp at Griffin, in

Rhinelander, wife of Leonard
Kip Rhinelander, New York
society seion, is too busy to be
bothered by her husband's suit
for divorce filed in Reno re-
cently in which he charges
cruelty.
"I can't be bothered." Mrs. Rhine-
lander told a Chicago Defender
correspondent.
"I am not interested the least bit in what he does or how he sues," she said. "It really doesn't matter in the sightset to me what he does. Your lawyer is not going to detail details. They've told me not to discuss the matter, I am sorry."
No Time to Talk
Mrs. Brileylander had very little time to talk with the Defender correspondent. She and her mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Jones, were busy filling sandwiches and filling thermos bottles full of wine made by her father—who operates a taxicab and packing bags into their new family.
"Mother and I are going on a little private picnic and I am far more interested in that than I am in what Kip does. I am not sure I will be just follow the road and wherever we find an agreeable spot that's where we stop." Just before taking the wheel of the car, she kissed the father of her children beside her on the driver's seat, and away they drove. Mrs. Rhinelander hinted that they might be gone for a few days in the Adironacks, and persists in White Plains local clerics that her attorneys are not having difficulty in arranging a handsome settlement with the Rhinelander family. The three-year postponement of our separation may have been delayed for this purpose.
May Settle $500,000 Suit
While the law prohibits extra court financial settlements as a means of prearranging marital dissolution, it would be legal to have a court order her recently instituted $300,000 alienation of affections suit brought against Philip Rhinenee the plaintiff. The effect that she would not oppose his attempt to undo the marriage. Attorney William Bailey, her acting attorney, has no jurisdiction of Clark, Close and Davis of White Plains, told The Chicago Defender that the Nevada suit has no jurisdiction not affect her legal standing in any way. Mr. Bailey says he sees no reason Mr. Bailey would be able for a separation between Alice and Kip.
KIP FILES SUIT
Las Vegas, Aug. 23. — A divorce suit on behalf of Leonard Kip Rhinelander of New York, charging that his wife "taken advantage of his youth and inexperience" in persuading him to marry her is on here. In a second time that Kip has sought a divorce from Alice. Several years ago a similar case in New York failed to bring him a defense. He has been living apart, Mrs. Rhinelander receiving a separate maintenance. They were married in 1924.

WHITES FIGHT OPENING OF N.Y. RESORT
New York, Aug. 23—White residents of Throggs Neck and the adjoining areas Sunday temporarily won the first victory in the fight to prevent the opening of a bathing beach and dance hall when Solomon Riley, reality man, of 408 Manhattan Ave., was forced to postpone the failure to secure the resort due to failure to secure three licenses. Riley called off a parade of Elds, a bathing beauty contest and an elaborate entertainment program, inability to secure a dance hall, failure to secure a dance hall and a police permit for the Elds parade caused the canceling of the "grand opening."
The opening was called off after Riley had done extensive advertising in Harlem, Brooklyn, and New York. J. where the elks will hold their annual national convention next week. Riley, although to the commercial enterprises, announced that his property would be open to "guests" free of charge and that the permits were granted. Gigantic crowds visited the resort Sunday while a large detail of police regulations the traffic and handled the people.
White residents in the vicinity of the resort were alarmed at Riho's failure to enforce the rules and lend friends until the licenses are granted. It had been alleged Saturday that white leaders had declared that they would attack and venge the resort and enjoy themselves at the hall or the beach. Their plan of violence was frustrated by police who stood only a few feet apart mannequin. One noticeable feature Sunday was the fact that practically every white home in the immediate hearing on the resort had a sale" signs everywhere, meaning that they are eager to get away from this district.

SCORES LACK OF INTEREST IN DENTISTRY
Meharry's President Gives Opinion
Nashville, Tenn., Aug. 23.—In a statement issued here Tuesday by Dr. John J. Mullowney, president of the Melarry Medical college the lack of a sufficient number of dentists and the lack of interest on the part of youths who are qualified to pursue the study of dentistry as a professional scored severely and deplored. The fact that less than 50 students graduated from the various dental colleges the committee on the statement in the course of Dr. Mullowney, who pointed out that of the number graduating in June, 21 completed the course at Melarry and at Howard university, Washington.
A Tragic Situation.
"This presents a very tragic and deplorable situation," declared Dr. Mullowney. "There is a distinct need of dentists among Negroes throughout the country, and the number who have had dental problems place those who have died during the year or retired from active practice on account of age or other reasons. "Equally as tragic is the lack of interest on the part of Negro students in dental school and professional in taking up the work. The waiting lists of practically every professional school in the country is overloaded with applications for the degree in dentistry and surgery, while there is a security of students in the dental school.
Offers Careers
"The reason for this is more than I am able to determine. The dental field offers one of the most promising careers, and it returns and opportunities to render real service. Each year we receive a large number of letters from prominent citizens in various cities and localities urging us to send some of them to our office, pointing out that unless the Negro people can get competent, well-trained dentists of 'their own group they will be forced to patronize white dentists and that splendid source of income for a service will fall from the Negro group."
After deploring the situation, Dr. Mullowney asserted that if this source of income was removed from the students, we would have the members themselves to blame. Diligent efforts are being made by Marhary to interest a large numb of students in the profession of dentistry and the facilities for such training have been

WHITES SET MAN ON FIRE TO HAVE FUN
Soak Body With Gas and Apply Match
Lexington, Ga., Aug. 23—Two white men, Grady Looney and C. O. Christelman of Crawford, are in the Opelthorne county jail here, charged with assault with intent to murder Tuesday, after pouring gasoline on Jim Jewell and setting fire to the youth "for fun." The prisoners are being held without bail awaiting the outcome of Jewell's condition, which is serious.

The white men were in a small group near the filling station operated by Christian's father, where Jewell was working on a machine. One of the men had a quart of gasoline and Looney is said to have dared Christian to pour it on Jewell. Looney stated that if Christian threw the fire, Looney struck the match. The dare was accepted. Christian poured the gasoline on Jewell and Looney struck the match. Several flames. Several men attempted to put out the fire. When the fire was extinguished, the foot and was rushed to a hospital for aid. Before the men poured the gasoline over Jewell he begged the police to take a pleading man if there was any message he wanted to send his mother before the match was applied.

That he will run for re-election for a seventh term as grand exalted ruler of the Improved Renewel and Protective Order of Elks of the World upon his past record, J. Finley Wilson, who is being opposed for the office by Casper Holstein of New York, he declared here Saturday.
The achievements of the order under him during re-election at the Elks' convention, which will be held in Atlantic City, N. J., Aug. 23 to 28, he stated.
In enamoring his achievements as head of the organization, I gave the organization the first place in Race fraternities. I have brought into the antered hard every big churchman, statesman and politician among the presidents of Cuba and Liberia.
When he took office, he said, the membership was less than 25,000. Now it is over 150,000. The women are over 150,000. Now it is over 100,000. The order had only 156 financial lodges. Now there are over 800. The total value of lodge properties was $300,000. Now it is over 100,000. He stated that he had given the order an educational unit, a health unit and a civil liberties unit. The order under his administration, he said, granted over 100 scholarships, 100 fellowships, 100 scholarships at present and six of them are leading their classes in northern colleges, he stated. "I have taken the premium of rum and put it on character and manhood." His re-election is assured, he stated. "I have received indorsements from every state convention of Elks except the one he said, and I have judged the indorsements by the majority of the lodges in those two states."
"My friends throughout the nation, many of whom have known me from childhood, are making preparations for the Olympics. City, demanding victory and vindication from the scurrilous and wicked attacks on my integrity, which bore him. Manufactured to wreck an organization and assassinate the character of the grand exalted ruler by office seekers who have never accomplished anything. I am not worried about the money the opposition is spending and giving away. I have never promised to function as grand exalted ruler without our man. I have always been taught to be bribe of Greeks bearing gifts. If you will read the grand lodge minutes for the past two or three years, I will be the newspaper for service these candidates have rendered without pay. I have been a working man all my life. I have run in newspaper for politics. My business are always open for inspection. When the boys are fired of my being grand exalted ruler, I shall return to my desk with clean hands and hands."
Mr. Wilson's remarks contained a vetted reference to Holstein, who received milage and per diem at the last grand lodge session of $100 us. The committee of the lodge entries, according to the grand lodge minutes.

The terms refused to go under these terms.

The members of the church who desired to worship put their heads together and arrested the men at the door on a charge of disturbing the church and a meeting called for Tuesday evening, at which time a final settlement would be reached. The opposition forcing the church to be on hand secured the injunction against him entering the church. The banks faction is determined to meet and is arranging another meeting and efforts to make it to have the injunction dissolved.

It occurred to me it would be a good plan to talk to one of the librarians, and so I sought out Mr. Hewett in the card catalogue room.
He was interested when I spoke to him about the percentage of Colored people in the reference department, but he said no statistics ever had been kept to ascertain the number of the Colored race who came in during a war.
"Most of them are students," he informed me. "They're attending school somewhere and studying here. There are many of the Negroes in the city how advantage of our library facilities, but it would be impossible for us down here to keep track of them. There are many of the Negroes in the city, as Mr. Hewett and I stood talking, a young Colored man and an older one came inside the door of the catalogue room and looked around. I was the older over the library, with pride distinctly visible in his face. From bits of their conversation, I gathered that the older man was a guest in Chicago and about to exhibit the various points of interest. Going back into the next room, I took up my former station and began to read about to exhibit the various points of interest. I noticed there were old Negroes and young Negroes, men and women, reading and waiting for books. Some of them were poorly educated and to be there for a serious purpose.

Miller was ordered to contribute $10 weekly for the support of the child for 16 years. The complaint was allowed through the public welfare to whom the unmarried mother appealed. Irvin Miller is among the best known men of his race in the world, and he is identified with the stage pioneers in Afro-American dramatic art. Perhaps the outstanding production which he financed and acted in was "Brownskin Models" which he performed few years ago, winning much praise from large audiences. Mr. Miller is married.

Spalding county Here he met keepers who were human, too, and realized a man in prison was human. Jim remained there his last year of servitude.
Shortly after Jim was sent to Griffin, Jim Moore, a white man and former neighbor of Richardson and Smith, was dying in Atlanta. He called for William Richardson, a white friend of his, and said that he had something he wanted to confess before he left this world.
To Richardson Moore confessed the murder of Smith. It is said that he died with a prayer on his lips, begging for the forgiveness of the black man he had wronged, Jim Richardson. The investigator was promptly killed before the prison commission and the governor and a full purdon granted Richardson. It was a happy day for him and his fellow convicts when the papers arrived. His grown children made the rates to welcome him home.
Jim Richardson has all his hopes on the state of Georgia, that it will be done. There is little doubt but that the $2,750 appropriation will be approved. But will it pay him for all the costs of the project, long 15 years which are lost to him forever? Richardson is too good to say it won't—he says it will help.

Blake Talks Politics
"Masony has never dictated to its members the exercise of their political opinion, nor am I suggesting that innovation, innovation, innovation, needs to be the patron of the political party that is willing to guarantee our citizenship rights. We need to patronize the political party that enforces the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments of the United States Constitution." Blake related. The matter of offices of officers routinely fill the offices of imperial outer guard was reached, but the nominating speeches were all of a humorous tendency and the imperial council showed its appreciation for bursts of laughter and applause.

H. Kinch, long friend and coworker, who will succeed Mr. Wills as grand chancellor, was present. Rev. J. Newton, pastor of the church, officiated.

The Pythian unit is the strongest state group in the order and controls a million-dollar treasury.

Seeks Medical Clinic
for Needy in Arkansas
Pine Bluff, Ariz., Aug. 32—Tears of observation in Arkansas have led Dr. S. C. Coleman, prominent physician of this city, to launch a movement to bring medical relief to people without money to pay for treatment in the United Charities and Benevolent association of America, with offices at 2115 State St. which has for its purpose the establishment of a hospital and clinic to treat citizens. The association is seeking to secure state aid and financial assistance from philanthropic citizens of both races in this state and elsewhere. "There are more than 100,000 people who have no place to go to seek free medical treatment. There are no clinicians in the state open to these people, who are contributing to the progress of Arkansas. The other which is essential to the welfare of Arkansas,
"Many of them are incapacitated solely because they have no place to seek assistance during illness. The hospital and clinic we propose to visit will provide the state at the same time," stated Dr. Coleman. The association movement bears the indorsement of Gov. Harvey Purnell of Arkansas, the Chamber of Commerce and the United Charities of Pine Bluff, besides the state's efforts to protect the state. It is planned to examine the public school children and adults to safeguard the public against disease.

Arguments are quite a relief in some cases when you are trying. Arguing just for the sakes of argument is a bombshouse that when it does explode wrecks a absolutely riffled with arguing. They seem to think that their ability to do so will domineer the other fellow. They do not seem to be able to do so. They scary bird and when it takes to the wing it usually goes for good. In your case any woman continues to do what she knows a man does not want her to do she will surely lose him—and a letter explanation. Apologize to him and assure him that things will be different he allows you a chance. What whichever you tell him. I think he will return.
Dear Princess: I am very much in need of your wonderful advice. I need a little time to relax, and many years my senior, eight years ago. I had a little girl. We quarried. From the time I was a little girl, I did not speak or laugh with men, not even his sister. I was not married less than two years I caught him in one of my lady roomers' rooms. He was married less than two years until I decided to to go and leave him, work, which I did. Finally I got tired of just a place and food, but no work. He fussed, but I remained, so he changed and got real nice and comfortable. It is not to be trusted around my little girl. I clothe myself and my little clothes. I have bought all new furniture and when he gets mad he throws me. I try to stay with him until my girl finishes junior high school. I fear if I would you stay on and work, finding comfort and pleasure on the outside, or have no one particularly in mind now, but I know of two whom I believe would do—Mrs. Worried.

Dear Princess: As you have helped so many I know you can help me. I will be with you all time, I lived with a man for nine years. He has said all along that we would be married. We were happy and have had fun. We were married April 21, and on June 15 when I returned from downhill he had gone, but I was still with him, his mother where he was and she said she did not know, but I know she does, because she was always saying it was important to leave, as she knew we were not married. We were renting from her, so now we are renting to her. I think he has just gone away to look for work, but it looks like a put up job to me. We did not have what do you think?—Worried Heart.
The condition that you have been plained in is very sad. There is nothing else that runs from duty. Each one of the three concerned come in for your shhore that you bore children entirely too fast it would disgust most any man these three times in his response to marriage on what promises of marriage when he knew he was not going to keep them. His mother should have given her a kiss and not let the boy take its course. You cannot live there in any peace and you will find it hard to get lodging with so many little ones. Back, but play safe, as he is not to be trusted. I do not even advise marriage with him now.

RACE EQUALITY SPEAKER GETS BIG OVATION
Cheered as He Calls Superiority 'Bunk'
"If my sister wants to marry a Negro she is welcome and free to do so, declared Dunne. "If Negro worker than a white burn." The speaker retreated his former statements on the race question and problem for the Negro worker. He retreated that the race question is not a political or social problem and proclaimed that the white race is not nominally or politically. He declared that his party makes no distinction between races, except here in the South, where it proposes to work for the Negro than the white workers.
Must Erase All Workers
"We cannot free the white southern workers from robbery in the factories and oppression outside unless at the same time we have to be a long time the yellow race ruled the world and ruled it well. The black race ruled Africa."

They are the guests of Dr. Clarence Chesa-les of Erie, brother of Mrs. Phillips. They are commissioned by Mrs. W, S. Biggs and dau bler and Mrs. Anne Heffernan and daughter.
Suggestions
Cheese must be kept cool so that it will not mold; so of course, it must be kept in a refrigerator. But on account of its strong odor it must be kept tiltly covered. Wrap it first in a strong candy box. It will not escape these coverings.
After freezing ice cream, draw off all the salt water and repack with ice and salt, using three parts ice to one layer, let loose packing will mean soft cream.
The dirty, oily floor mop needs pretty drastic methods for its cleaning. Hot water to which ammonia and washing soda or powder has been added will prove good dirt moved.
Immediately after removing the coast ice in hot water and add a little ammonia. It will be a simple thing to wash if this is done.
If the cake should be burned a bit on the edges, remove the filament. It will leave a smooth surface for frosting and nobody will be the wiser.

It has been often brought to our attention of the petty professional jealousy that exists among the present day performers. We can remember for years back when the entire bunch of performers were as brothertied to the other a helping hand. So different today.

Talkies Big Help,Theater Magnate Says
Arch Selwyn, long, and still, a prominent figure in the theater and a member of the Producing Managers' association, has written for the Quill, the press representatives' live journal, and the theatre situation, with relation to the talkies and other problems which confront the legitimate stage.
Bv ABCH SELWYN
Talking pictures are not going to be the death of the legitimate theater, regardless of how it may look to some. I want to make that most emphatic. They will help the theater.
This is no secret illusion of my own, because active producing managers have grasped it, whatever they may think of the new conditions and competition which the show business is called on to deal with. H. Harris, John Golden, Arthur Hopkins, Winthrop Ames, Arthur Hammerstein, Lawrence Geyer, Lawyer Cochran, Cochran of London, who is associated with me in many new ventures and, like many others already deep in plants, is coming season. They all feel a new era is coming in the show business.
But things cannot go on as they are preparing to take action of the stage in hand. They realize there must be sales campaigns to meet competition. Wise managers of any other business
It is also agreed that they must clean up the stage, drive out boottie productions for their costly productions when ready to send them on the road.
Hungry for Road Shows
There is a road show market—perhaps a more discriminative market than in the old days—but it is hungry. With proper co-operation from theaters and from booking syndicates, both of which have always paid their indebtedness from the profits of their business, the show business in large producing centers and on the road can be saved. I also wish to make that emphatic. Unless theaters and syndicates and producers quickly formulate some proper plan for working with the audience to make it do. Legitimate producers have stood enough. There must be a new deal. I want to bury their hatchets and unwilling like rivals—always the upsetting difficulty with efforts to correct evils of the industry. I agree with The Quill that booking syndicates could rid the stage in one season of anything that brings hung rols to star some sweeet or produce a filth drama should not be furnished with theaters and play too emblematic about that.
The great American public that
has been a foundation for country-wide ail-
lences demands the beat, and leading
artists know, an Will Rogers says, there is a
lot of geography in this country out-
side the real drama and musical show.
Merger Is Big Thought
Sam H. Harris' suggestion for a merger of producing interests into a merger of producing audiences is the biggest thought that has come to the legitimate stage thus far, and The Quill—the paper of our own advertisement—votes and my producers' card, because it has been putting up a consistent battle for such constructive ideas, but the Quill is not that a whole generation of theatergoers has gone over to the movies, but The Quill is the theater's salesmanship will bring them to the legitimate shows again. I believe, with many others that the talks will help bring back, if we employ salesmanship. I have just returned from six weeks' conferring with the movie company I learned Jesse Lasky, Joe Schenck, Jack Warner, Winnie Sheehan for Mr. Fox, and I have been able to believe executives that they would come forward with their millions for a merger or whatever is necessary to make the movie go under. They all believe a new day is breaking for the spoken drama.
I have looked into the matter of stage producers combining with talkie producers, representers, and talkie managers, but after enormous offers we have decided to wait until we can direct our productions on the talking green.
In the meantime, sound business methods, meaning salesmanship, must be applied to theater business in order to best meet the needs of way productions can be taken without blushing to the cities than can support them, as the Guild and a few of our leading producers have been doing. The talkies and the movies generally give great competition, it is true. But by teaching an entire generation of actors, entertainers, and lusty, by giving their millions the dialogue with shadow music and dances, $5 per cent of movie audiences that never patronize our theaters will be wanting to see them and blood stare on the speaking stage.
The movie producers themselves admit it and I believe it. The talkies will be the salvation of the legitimate it producers get together to create a stage lice to its one-time reputable and profitable condition.

Henry was a long-time of his death. He had worked at the Alhambra theater and also companies. Mrs. Kennedy called at the home to express her gratitude for the assistance rendered by the association Metropolitan A. M. E. church. The association wishes it understood that such assistance are not taken without the form of charity.

"Beauty is cheap — ability counts," Millard Webb, who has directed the most beautiful girls on the screen, says:
"To the girls over the country who think Mary Eaton was chosen for the role of 'Glorifying the American Girl' because she is beautiful, I wish to say that she was chosen because she was the only girl Paramount could find who could play the role, preparedness has played a great part in library, and will do so always, Mary could dance and sing and had the stage experience. Merely pretty girls are myriad in New York, but did this interest a producer wanting an award did not need. Webb will direct Billie Dove's next picture.
"Here is the one girl who is accepted as beautiful, she is not." When a girl is called lovely by one, another usually disagrees, preferring a different type. Not so in the case of Miss Dove. She is generally accepted as the most beautiful girl, and she would not carry her along. She must produce at the box office."

Speech Is Only Small Part of Dramatic Art
Shakespeare has been translated into every language and familiarity with his plays is universal.
Time and again it has been proven that speech is only a small part of the art form through which drama is translated, and thus an English audience has been understood by all nations.
Bernhardt, Duse and Alexander Molsse in French, Balleff's troupe in German and Rudolf Krauss in German have toured triumphantly in countries where there is little or no knowledge of their language.
In bringing Shakespeare's plays to a silent screen, Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks believe they are giving to all civilized countries a play that is part of the English language, so the plot so fraught with familiar action that it tells its story even without words.
Collection of this great comedy is practically completed and will be ready, it is hoped, for its first showings immediately after Labor day.

Hard work, not luck is the thing which brings success, according to Webb and his advice to young persons is to learn.

Harlem Folks Claim Jim Crow Move in Hallelujah Showing
SATURDAY, AUGUST 24, 1929
By J. WINSTON HARRINGTON
New York, Aug. 23—"Halelujah," that remarkable Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer picture, with an all Race cast, held its world premiere here Tuesday night and as was expected thousands attended.
Out in Harlem movie fans are not so pleased because the picture had its premiere at both the Embassy theater, Broadway, St. E. and the Lafayette. The latter is located in the heart of Harlem.
It is believed by many that the reason for the simultaneous premiere was to keep our people on Broadway, the Lafayette theater caters strictly to members of the Race. There is no excuse for our people going to the Broadway theater with the Lafayette, which is so near them.
Jim Grow Showing
When it was first learned that the two shows were to have the picture a committee from the Actors and Producers Association Manager Schiffman of the Lafayette theater and asked why the Jim Crow plan. He explained, it is said that the organization had to accommodate the large crowds. Old New Yorkers cannot remember another movie having a premiere at two theaters at the same time. The famous team of comedians, Miller and Lyles, was one of those who was bitterly opposed to the Jim Crow showing at the premiere of the Actors and Performers Protective association Saturday Mr. Lyles withdrew from the organization when he became a member of the members had decided in favor of the Jim Crow plan.
King Vider Director
King Vidor, director of the picture, is a southerner. He has always been intensely interested in the history and future of our people. While he has declared that the new production will be a film that the film will do much to supply a better understanding of the psychology and conflicts and desires of our people. Vidor had cherished the idea of presenting a dramatic story on the screen with a cast made up entirely of our people. Until he had established himself as a director capable of handling unusual situations, Vidor, however, he was given the necessary co-operation and told to go ahead.
Sought Unusual Types
Last summer Vidor came East to select personally the members of the cast. He visited cabarets in Chicago and Harlem, looked for out of the ordinary types in out of the way places. After about two months his selections were made and the director, John Harlem, looked for out of the ordinary types in out of the way places. Seen were taken along the Mississippi, in cotton fields and swamp land over a wide radius. Stops were made in other parts of the South when the company moved on to Memphis. Seen were Seventeen-year-old Nina Mac McKinney, who was recruited from the cast of "Blackbirds" for a featured role in the film, arrived here this summer. The premiere, but expects to return to the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studio for another picture later in the year. Harry Gray, an 88-year-old ex-actor, will be when he was doing old jobs for a Harlem newspaper, was signed for the picture. Daniel Haynes, who has appeared in many productions and is as well known for his melodious simulating as for his life.

In His Mind for Years
The plot of "Halloween" had been revolving in Vidor's mind for years, and producing the film was merely a matter of conferring with executives to help him gather his ideas on paper. The story centers about Zeke, a young man who is drawn away from his plantation out into the world and later falls in love with a young man unimpressed over the dramatic obstacles he has encountered.
EDWIN C. LOWE WILL STAR IN 'BLACK APRIL'
Edwin C. Lowe of Uncle Tom fame has been chosen by Mr. Hopkins to star in "Black April," which is booked by the prominent producer and many critics by many critics to be the best story of Negro life since Uncle Tom's Cabin.

Japan Making Films of Own Classical Work
Washington, D. C., Aug. 20. —Approximately 800 feature pictures were turned out in Japan during 1928, an increase of 150 over the previous year, according to the United States department of commerce. More than half of all the Japanese productions are based on classic dramas of the country and on the pictures of tragedies of modern Japanese life and episodes in recent Japanese history. The climate lends itself to production and the pictures of technical accomplishments of technical excellence. Japanese pictures, while very popular at home, have little appeal for foreigners. For this reason producers have been forced to sell domestic market and few Japanese pictures are sent out of the country. The upper classes in Japan like foreign pictures and during 1928 more than 400 feature pictures, of which 290 were American. It is estimated that there are more than 1,000 theaters doing business in the Japanese empire with a total seating and standing capacity.
According to the Japanese Yearbook the attendance in all these theaters during 1927 reached 45,000,000 with large admission price of 15 cents. Several new theaters are now being erected in Tokyo and it is understood that some of these will have equipment for sound pictures.

Cutting Films Is Co

With the introduction of talking pictures the job of the cutter has become one of the most complicated pieces of work in production.
Back in the good old days of the silent screen a picture could be cut any place, as long as it is retained. The film was no jumps in the film when it was completed, but today the cutter must watch not only the continuity and timing of the shots, but also one inch of a reel for then the record would be thrown out of synchronism. When the first pictures were made, the film was used, which meant that the film was produced just as it was photographed. But soon two cameras were

Wear Colors That Make You Feel Comfortable, Give Poise
Stage Newcomers on Screen Sets
Colors, it is declared, have a great deal to do with the poise and assurance of the player wearing them.
"If I designed a perfectly gorgeous red frock for a girl to whom that color was anathema, her director would soon find it difficult to through her scenes with grace and ease and naturalness," a prominent Hollywood costumes designer avers. "When Ann Harding was a child, she would tell that her favorite colors are white, navy blue and black. There are many other colors which she, with her ivory skin, golden hair, and blue eyes, wear, but she feels at her greatest effect, she feels at her greatest case in the three colors mentioned.
"Carol Lombard does not care for any shade of blue except mayne. She is a very light blue and brighter blues, since she is a perfect blonde type, but she is not at case in them. Consequently I should also preface eyesgell, flesh or a very light beige to white, and in any summer sports things she wears on the screen I keep these preferences mind. She prefers a favorite color for street wear, white she has a pronounced antipathy for brown. Little Sally Eilers, on the other hand, loves the latter color and made two costumes in brown shades for her to wear in Sailor's Holiday."
"Women in private life would do well to keep this same policy in mind. If a color seems to conflict with your personality, do not let a gib saleswoman talk you into buying a dress that makes you mister how beautifully she made the garment may be. When a woman feels comfortable in her clothes she can forget about them, and, with a mind completely at ease as to her appearance, energies to other parts in the art of being charming and attractive."

Lewiston, Mont. Aug. 22—Ernest Baby Seals of Seals Mitchell company is with the Warmth shows. They will hit Billings Day.
Talking pictures have brought so many newcomers to Hollywood that the old-time hero of the films is in the discard for the legitimate stage actor.
Just as the matinee idol of 20 years ago lost his place in the flapers' heart to the hard riding, muscular type on the screen, has the same fate overtaken the picture actor and brought favor to the newcomer from New York.
The old-time ladies young boys who are creating sensations in film-dom, as well as among the pretty girls, are Morgan Farley and Russell Gleason. Young Farley played in "The Trial of Ursula," "The Trial of Fiona," "Fandula" and "Fat Morgana" in New York and London. Gleason has been on the stage with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Gleason, for

WIN 2D HALF
Kansas City, Mo., Aug. 17.—The Kansas City Monarchs and the Cuban Stars staged one of the prettiest pitching battles seen here for some time today when the locals nosed out the Stars in the first game of the five-game series, 4 to 1.
Errors caused the downfall of the Islanders. Without the errors the Monarchs would not have been able to score but one run, in this event throwing the game into extra innings, as is the usual habit of the Cubans who they play here. They have the same hitting timing games at Mechbau park against the Monarchs than all the rest of the league clubs combined.
It was a tough game from beginning to end and the locals had to work hard to even get a hit. Diaz, pitching at the orphans, allowed only six widely scattered bingles and was not until the seventh frame that the Monarchs were able to score more than one run in any bingling, making two hits. They filled the bingles in the sixth with only one out, but Couper fanned Alonzo, a left hand hitter, and Taylor camped under Lopes' fly. That was all, but it was tight. Today's game wags clearly the best played in some time and the Stars have improved remarkably since their last appearance here.

Aug. 18—The Kansas City Monarchs, league leaders, engaged the Baltimore and the five-game series here Monday afternoon and after the battle was over it was found that the leaders were the ones to the tuns of 14 to 10. It was a heavy slugging contest, with the locals having the edge in the swatting and this feature alone counted for several of the Monarch scores. In the sixth frame the Islanders wait on a batting spree and counted six tails before the Roganites could call a halt. With two down Army players, the Navy Cooper and retired the side without another scoring being made.

Wiley Grid Men Report September2
Marshall, Tex., Aug. 19.—The Wiley college 1929 football squad will hold their initial practice of the 1929 season on Monday, Sept. 2, according to the plans of Coach Fred Long, who is on the grounds now getting equipment ready and overseeing improvements on the playing field.
Last year, it will be remembered, the Wildcats started their practice on the first Monday in September, and ended the season by being a champion for the national championship.
It is possible that the first Monday in September is a lucky day on which to start a football season. At least Hed Coach Fred Long thinks that he is starting again on that date.
All comers to the Wildcat camp are expected in on the first day of practice, and divisions will begin until the opening of school, a week later.
Coach Ling has been doing a great deal of grooming in this new word the word "marshland," the word derived from him a large crowd of new material will be on hand to take the places of the eight varsity men championship team that will be missing. The local monitor and his assistants will have a tough job on their hands, and the team will be by Sept. 27, when the season will be opened with the fast Jarvis college eleven here at the Central East High School. The biggest problem facing the Long brothers is the development of a punter to succeed Harding last year's star in that department of the school. This year's stock will be able to equal the spirals of the erstwhile Wilberforce and Kansas City Monarch dash. The South. But who knows what will be developed among the new men? Harry Long, the latest addition to the team, will drive in Marshall on Sept. 1, ready for action, while Walter Cox, line coach, is here now, rushing to go.
New York, Aug. 19.—The Lincoln Giants had a rest from their league schedule on Sunday when they met what they thought would be an easy team. Wid Conroy's Camden nine, but the visitors surprised the large number of fans at Protectory oval by winning the first game, 11 to 8, and forcing the locals to extend themselves to win, 12 to 6, in the second Gilroy's pitching was largely responsible for the though errors by the local team had something to do with it. He allowed nine hits, but hity were so well scat-tched that earned runs until the eight fining. In the eight home runs by George Scales and Charlie Spearman, with responsible for four runs. Kelling, second baseman for the Camden team, was the star at bat. He made it, including a home run.
In the second game Bill Riggins and Charlie Browne, with Smith mine a home run and a three-bagger in three trips to the plate, and Riggins batted a 100. Browne and two singles in four trips to the plate.

AMERICAN GIANTS WIN 5 GAMES FROM MEMPHIS RED SOX IN WILD CHASE AFTER FLYING MONARCHS
The American Giants still battle for a chance to slip into first place in the second half of the Negro National league race. They gained a full game on the league leading Kansas City Monarchs on Tuesday when they won the fifth straight game from the Memphis Red Sox, 7 to 2, and the Monarchs dropped a close one to the Cuban Stars.
The murderers' row — Gardner, Thompson, Russ, Powell and Steelarm Davis — is cutting up. If some team can halt the offensive of Kansas City and turn them back, the Giants may get out on top; but it is sure hard sliding, the way the Monarchs are hitting the ball.
Five in a row sort of unnerved the local fans. Memphis was unfortunate enough to be without the services of Glass, who was forced to leave the team Friday night for Kentucky because of the death of his sister. Wesley, ex-husband of Jason, joined Tuesday. He is playing second, with Laurent shifted to short in the place of Owens. Memphis up up a fight in the early part of each game, then sud-
On Tuesday, ladies' day, Cornellus went five innings and allowed but one hit, that a hot one when W. Hancock almost knocked the Memphis short-stop down. Then in the sixth, with one out, Thompson singled and stretched it into two bases in the sixth. Thompson sinned through Laurent. Powell was safe on Wesley's fumble, while Thompson scored. W. Davis was hit, filling the sacre with two-play waet to center, sending in three runs. S. Davis dropped a Texas leaguer in right, and when Laurent missed the ball, he was again drunk. Foster fanned, and Morris, up for the second time in the inning, singled, and two more runs forced Morris at second. The best Memphis got was a couple in the second frame. Of the six Morris allows, two were after that it was a bunch of goose eggs for Memphis.
Monday the Gliants ran riot to wiltop the Red Sox for eight runs, made by collecting a total of 18 hits, and by playing a ground and a game was a poor one.
Sunday's twin bill went to the Giants, 6-4, and they have with the visiting fielders, who were unable to judge fly balls. To make matters worse, in the first game Green dropped a four-run homer, and three runs went in, breaking a 2-to-2 tie in the fifth, the fencing in which the Giants pushed over four. Second contest was a conglomeration of errors and miscues to such an extent that the crowd began leaving along the fence. Marshall was given a three-run lead on Saturday in the first frame and he breezed along in good style. C. Hail got wretched when Marshall was given a three-run lead on Saturday in the first frame and he breezed along in good style. C.

Calloway vs. Downing Net Match Not Played
Petersburg, Va., Aug. 17. — The southern tennis meet, which met here a few weeks ago was a great success for the team and all of the fans who attended were pleased at its outcome with one exception. All of the matches were announced in Blitfield would be played in Petersburg. The team played excluding the Downing-Calloway match. The failure of this match to materialize has caused much unrest among the tennis fans; no explanation has been given by the parties who were to play the match, although Downing left for the New York state play.

Detroit, Aug. 18—The Stars divided a bargain bill with the Birmingham Barons here Sunday, winning 10 to 1 and dropping the aftermath, 10 to 2. The first game was a ding dong affair with the locals waging a brilliant uphill battle to come from behind in the paint, in the pitch, dead, when Davis, who had relieved his distressed brother, Henry, in the fifth, maced a blow to center that Smith's head and rolled to the fence, Davis romping home with the winning taly. Lile and Jones shared the batting position, Smith and McAlister were the lions with the willow for the visitors.

Kid Chocolate Shows Pep in Fast Workouts
White Sulphur Springs, N. Y., Aug. 19.—A crowd of over 500, including Frank Bruen, Garden executive, W. A. Pratt and Bert Stand of the New York boxing commission, witnessed Kid Chocolate in his training session here yesterday.
The Keeed impressed all with his speed and punching ability. Stand declared Chocolate has all the qualifications of the perfect fighting machine.
Chocolate worked six rounds, two een with Eddie Reilly, Jimmy Slavin and Baby Face Quintana. His best rounds were produced in the opening four against Reilly and Slavin. The little sensation who is to meet Al Singer at the Polo meet on the 29th, weaved and punched in true ring condition and again employed a straight left hand to adrienne.
Training was concluded with two rounds against Baby Face Quintana, with whom Chocolate employed de-
pendent techniques. Chocolate drew considerable an-
apause from the crowd as he con-
cluded each round, his fast punch-
ing was a pleasure to watch.
After five days of training choco-

Ala. State Season Will Open Sept.27
Aug. 17. —In order to resume gridiron relations with one of their early opponents, the Alabama State Teachers college Hornets will pry open their 1929 season one week earlier than usual when they meet the 24th Infantry soldiers from Fort Benning, Ga., here at Paterson field on Friday afternoon, Sept. 27. Arrangements have just been completed through Faculty Manager C. Dunn for the early-season contest. Not having played each other since 1925, these two teams anxiously await the opening game of 1923. Alabama State was one of the first college teams, back in 1921, to begin athletic relations with the soldiers they had been transferred to Georgia. Six football games have been staged during the period from 1921 through 1925, with two tie games and
Interestingly, the first game in 1923 and the last game in 1923 resulted in wins in 1921 and 1923 and lost in 1922 and 1924. Thus both teams will be out to get the advantage in games at Paterson field on Sept. 27.

EXPRESS CO. WINS,5 TO 3, FROM MARCOS
Late Rally Near End of Game Fails
Dayton, Ohio, Aug. 18.—A flurry of five hits in the fifth innning, bringing in five runs, enabled the Railway Express to take the odd tussle of a three-game series from John Matthew's Marcos, outstanding candidates for the semipro championship of the city, here today. The final score was 5 to 3.
Halnes, 15-year-old Express hurler, scored seven in the Marcos to seven binlets and had them shut out up to the eighth, when a run came in on a double by Huff, and then a third by the Marcos. More scores were added in the ninth on a walk to Kirklesie, an error by Lanforsiek and a triple by Hayden, the most exciting of the series. Huff secured two blows in two attempts to lead the Marcos in hitting while the other three tries was high for the winners.
Oliver and Tidd sparkled for the Express in the infield. Shepherd, the Colored ladder, played best for the Colored ladder.
Jackson Park baseball team, championship Postoffice league, lulled their season with a final victory over Pilsen station in the "Round Robin" in the championship of Chicago, winning two of four in the semifinals and annexing 15 victories out of 17 played between Pilsen and Jackson Park stations at American Giants park last season. Jackson Park winning, 14 to 1. The feature of the game was the heavy hitting of Captain McMillah, Irvin and Cox.
Wharton, speed-ball artist, pitched

New York, Aug. 16.—The West bowed to the East this afternoon when Eyre Saitch, New York state 1928 champion, defending his title, won from James Stocks, 20-year-old youth of Pasadena, Calif., in five gruelling sets, 7—9, 11—9, 1—6. Mrs. Sozmes
New YORK state 1928 champion, defending his title, won from James Stocks, 20-year-old youth of Pasadena, Calif., in five gruelling sets, 7—9, 11—9, 1—6, 6—1, 7—5, and became permanent possessor of the Savoy trophy.
The match was the elitmax of a five days tournament played on the E. and F. streets of St. and Fifth Ave. and was the 15th annual New York state championship. Sixty-five men were entered in the singles. Satch had to extend himself to stand over the Californian, he established himself as a favorite to take the national title at Borden-town.
Stocks kept the champion on the go for fully three sets, but weakened an terrible strain.
Satch's plan of attack had been met with fast court covering which offset the New Yorker's driving. Satch won the first game of the fourth set after it had gone to double four times, and run the count to 4-0 before Stocks could find himself. Stocks won the next game on his service, only to lose the sixth and set by a score of 6-2. The California seemed quite disoriented at the start of the fifth set, but was able to come from behind after Satch had taken the lead and won four out of five games. Then he went to pieces again under the renewed onslaught of the Harlem and Satch's tournament experience was largely responsible for his victory. The Harlem champion played a base line game, keeping Stocks on the run and covering his corners and shaping when he caught the wrestler too far back.
Perhaps the greatest upset of the tournament came Friday when C. Linjoco, Chicago, Filipino, was beaten by Sailch. Linjoco won the national grass court championship, and he was the markable speed in serving, his well placed chops and sturdy drives he had been picked to win the New York title.
Linjoco had a very easy time reaching the semifinals, but Sailch was the first to win. Norwood Bain, alternate referee to Dr. Iverson Hoage, is being severely criticized by a group of the Chicago players.
It is said he approached the Filipino player before the start of the game, he said, "I am going to call foot faults and I understand you are guilty of making them, so he on your guard."
Nashville, Tenn., Aug. 18. — The Nashville Elite Giants divided with the Indianapolis Lincoln Highway baseball club after causing them to go ten innings to win the first game.

AL SINGER-KID CHOCOLATE BOUT ADVANCE SALE PASSES $70,000 MARK; FIGHT AUG.29
New York, Aug. 22.—Though it's more than a week and a half away, we deem it quite in order to begin anticipating the forthcoming 12-round engagement between Al Singer, Bronx junior lightweight idol, and Eligio Sardinas, generally known as Kid Chocolate, the amazing Cuban featherweight, which will feature the program of bouts at the Polo grounds on Aug. 29.
Preliminary contemplation leads us to regret, for the sake of the principals themselves, that they aren't heavyweights. Imagine, if you can or will, what the gate receipts would be one week from next Thursday when Singer and Chocolate meet.
Had Singer been a heavyweight and had he compiled as spectacular a record as he has, and had he compiled as most heavyweight with his most remarkable record, there would not be talk of a gate of $200,000 or more. The figure, despite the fact that neither is a champion, has a gate of $1,500,000. And we write this in complete knowledge of the present-day heavyweight activities.
In fact, we believe that the interest that is being displayed in the gate receipts promising to be as big as they will be, should serve as an induction to all upper Manhattan and Bronx residents to search out all neighborhoods for the groom them for possible heavyweight material.
There is substantial enough reason for asking that the search be conducted with the present crop of those scrambling around for Gene Tunney's vacated

Arvin Spence Outslugs Charlie Arthurs in 8 Rds.
Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 18.—Arvin Spence, who has been an everlasting punching bag for all known and unknown light heavyweights in the fight racket, finally came to his senses last Wednesday night and outslugged Charley Arthurs, veteran coast fighter, to gain the referee's verdict of his eight-round bout at Taylor bowl. Spence took the first round with ease and felled the husky, battle-scarred Arthurs twice in the second round. This punch showed Spence up took the fifth when he sent over a damaging right cross to the head which split Arvin's upper lip and caused the chest to now rather freeze. This considerably forged the next two rounds, but in the last frame Oly Perskins boy went out with a kayo in his mind and spit it out. The dance looked the part of a real fighter in this bout and we hope he has

throne so much as can be said to represent the greatest money center in the world. It would be pointless to continue representing Al and the Kid aren't of the biggest weight in boxing. They aren't, and we'll have to content ourselves with the thought that their bout will be the greatest Kid since the days when Benny Leonard and Lew Tendler came together, and hope that the tilt will be half as good as most people claim it will be. Also, we can't forget to voce our enthusiasm for the forthcoming engagement at this time. There's all of a week and a half in front of us, and we rest content that we possibly planted the germ in our hearts to scout around for a really capable heavyweight to represent the greatest city in the world, as did Tunner. In the race for the most prized boxing positional world's heavyweight championship.
Singer is training at Hans Emmer's Hoosick Falls, N. Y., camp, while Chocolate has been at Saratoga for several days, gradually whipping up already reported as being above $10,000, which is a lot of money even if it is exaggerated a bit. We don't doubt the figure, though, since the tilt is the most attractive thing in years. Whether or not Harry Ebets, the blond Freeport middleweight, will be permitted to go through with his scheduled 10-round tilt with Izzy Grove, the Bronxite, on the same card will be determined at next Tuesday's tournament. Ebets fouled out in his tilt with Nick Palmer at the Queensboro stadium last Tuesday night and may lose the shot, although he was signed for the Grove bout prior to the tournament and only ought to get it. They put up a good scram when they last met.

bout was the main preliminary to the Billy Wallace-Tommy Grogan on big go and third meeting.

The handsome Alaskan came back fighting and had Tommy near a key at. Back of and Wallace went down for a nine count, Iceder Loy Magnolia handled this bout and was an attraction by himself.

Porter, Chicago, both sterling players, and the matches which will bring either Mrs. Emma Leonard, New York; Mrs. Elise Conck, New York, or Mrs. Bertha Sadler, New Jersey, into the semifinal round. If Miss Washington wins this semifinal that predicted brilliant final between she and Miss Balthar ought to be a corking good fit.
Alfred Walker, youthful junior star of Baltimore, Md., will probably have to face Frank Jackson, hard hitting North Carolina, in the quarterfinals of the junior singles. If he wins and reaches the finals, he will meet one of four good men, Nathaniel Jackson is slated to meet Ragnhild Hawkins, Philadelphia, finalist in the recent Southeastern junior finals, in the quarterfinals. The winner of this match will play the winner between the probable match between Gerald Norman Jr., Flushing, N. X., and Thomas Calloway, Roanoke, five times Southeastern junior ruler. This writer it looks to be a final between Walker and Calloway, and it ought to be good.
Men's Doubles
In the top half of the men's doubles draw are Smith and Dr. Smith, pressured by Richardson and Louis Jones, Wilkerson and Willibur Clark Granger and Granger, Stocks and Ford, Willis and S. Worde, and the Jackson brothers. On form, Smith and Smith should
In the lower half, with Talley Holmes and Thompson, George Hill and H. Butler, Limcoj and Brown, and Downing, Montgomery and Graham, Allison Davis and Sterling Brown, C. Hamilton and C. W.

**Mixed Doubles**
The strongest entrants in mixed doubles appear to be Will Kean and Miss Blanche Winston, present titleholders; M. E. DuBissette and Miss Channels; C. Granlane and Miss Laura and I. T. Duncan and Miss L. Porter.
**Women's Doubles**
There does not appear to be a team capable of stopping Miss Bailand and Miss Holmes, both doubles, although Mrs. Leonard and Mrs. Conick, Mrs. Gittens and Mrs. Rhoda Smith, and Mrs. Sadler and Mrs. Jumison, give them some opposition.
Heavy rain Sunday night held up play until slightly after noon today, but officials got matches under way then with the sun shining. Players were then enjoyed throughout the week.

CHICAGO
Bordentown, N. J., Aug. 19. Spectacular competition was forecast today for the week's
play in the 13th national championships of the American Tennis association when perhaps the most brilliant array of stars ever assembled for the classic athletic event donned spick and span togs and unpacked their racks to
M.
and span togs Ted Thompson and unpacked their rackets to begin blasting each other off the courts of the beautiful Bordentown Industrial school here.
The quest for the championships in the six events has lured the pick of the nation's racket-wielding luminaries with the consequent promise of a steady succession of stirring contests. Rumors of the possible barring of Ted Thompson, a finalist or champion since 1824; Edgar Brown of Chicago, present king of the courts, and Limjoco, limboer of the lawn tennis championship, for various reasons, failed to materialize. All three are entered and primed for whatever awaits them between now and Saturday when the finals are held. There are 239 entries in the six events—117 in men's singles, 47 in men's doubles, 39 contestants in women's singles, 14 asplants in junior singles and 14 asplants in mixed doubles. More pairs singles complicated.
Just how necessary it is that modern prognosticists invoke the aid of bygone and famous prophets in any attempt to indicate what stars have the smoothest paths to a life line-up of players in the top half of the lower bracket alone. There one finds Eryre Salutch, New York city, former national champion and one of the most successful Indians who came within a bat of the eye of defeating Thompson last summer; Wilbur Clark of Chicago; present western title holder; Henry Graham of University of Indiana; Hudlin in last year's nationalists; Limjoco, the youthful Filipino threat; Ted Thompson of Washington, who just recently copped the southeastern crown, and Stocks of California, who beat Robinson in New York play only to lose to Salutch.
Opinion was predominant on the grounds here today that the player who survives this section of the draw will be the winner. Thirty-two players were seeded in the men's singles. Edgar G. Brown, present champion, holds the draw in the upper bracket. To reach the final, George W. Willis, Willis, New Jersey, and the winner of the match between Traille Holmes, Washington, former national champion, and George W. Willis, New Jersey, both Success in these matches will mean that he will meet, if matches go according to form, either Dr. Sylvester Smith, former national singles champion, and Dr. Sylvester Smith, former national singles champion, and with Saitch, present national doubles champion, Dr. J. L. McGrew, Portsmouth, Va., ninth ranking star, or Willis-forceor Willis-forceor rocketeer and former national junior title holder.
Meeting no setbacks up to and through the quarter-finals, Brown should have to face either Dr. E. Kearns, L. B. Granger, local professor; H. A. Kean, Kentucky, or C. H. Parrish, Kentucky, who are the most outstanding obstacles in the final to the upper bracket in the semifinals.
That "Awful" Line-up
Eyre Saitch heads the lower half of the draw. Either he Dune, Graham, Limjico, Thompson or Furlong—unless some other player is in the consistency of things—will come through to the lower bracket semifinals. It looks as if Saitch will have to play in semifinals in airs, smears the Filipino. If he beats either Limjico or Graham, the two most dangerous in his early matches, he will most likely rank ranking player, in the quarter-finals, the winner to go into the lower half semifinals. The finals may see again a match between Thompson and Brown. That man, who most recently won, can guess how and why and who the men's singles finalist will be. In the lower half of the lower bracket there are Richard Hudlin, former Chelsea, and Richardson, New Rochelle, N. Y., star, who defeated Brown in New York last week; James Stocks, California sensation, whom nobody is sure to beat; Alison Davis, Hampton professor, and Solomon Worde, New Jersey stylist. So either Saitch, Thompson or Limjico will have to meet one named in the lower half semifinals.
Women's Singles
Sixteen players were seeded in the women's singles. Miss Lulu Ballard hedda the draw in the top four of the round, fourth in the fourth, Mrs Frances Gittens, New York flash, in the quarter-finals, and if she emerges victorious will meet Miss Iandre Channels, the semifinals, provided Miss Channels defeats the winner of the match between Miss Annie Roberts, Portsmouth, Wt., and Mrs Susie Hunt, New York, who has not yet predicted semifinal match between Miss Ballard and Miss Channels will very likely face Miss Oran, Miss Katherine, and many of Gentown, Pa. But Miss Washington, who has won both the Southeastern and New York titles this summer, vanquishing Miss Bess, will have to defeat the winner of the

Black Barons in Last Appearance Here
The Birmingham Black Barons with their star hurler, Satchel, who will be pitted against Willie Foster in the first game of Sunday's twin engagement, will open a five-game play against the hustling American Giants on Saturday. And Birmingham has no other aspirations than to put a crimp in the winning streak of the Chicago team, which is hot on the trail of the Monarchs, league leaders, who have set a most dizzy pace. The Giants are making their last appearance in the Windy city this season. With Wesley, former manager, and Business Manager Benning coming to the parting of the ways, the local fans are anxious to see just how the southerners perform after the Barons will find when they arrive, and that perhaps to their sorrow: The Giants are in the midst of a hitting streak. They have five men who face the pitcher
Gardner, who turned his ankle in Monday's game, will be back in the team's season. W. Harris and Malvin Powell follow, and they mean no pitcher any good. Crampton, the Giants play the Chicago Firemen in a double bill on Sunday, and on Labor day engage the Famous Chicagos in two exhibition contests. Then St. Louisians, and the league season is over.

Although the games are exhibition games, williams are running in order to whip his team in shape for the balance of the league season.

Aberman George W. Harris takes account of property in Harlem in his newspaper account of property in Harlem in 1837, a storm struck Harlem an awful blow, he says, and the citizens of Harlem at the mercy of greedy landlords. He published newspaper account of conditions in Harlem paints a picture of this section. Harris states, "There is the congested area between 125th and 145th St. in Harlem, a dark park. The areas to the south of 125th St. and to the north of 145th St. are the most densely populated that the great mass of Race people
"The recent unemployment situation has hit Harlem a hard blow. While 80% of women are being employed as clerks and artisans, 10% are unemployed. Racce people are among the last to be hired and the most unemployed. Produced broken homes, congestive conditions, the excessive disease rates, the show exist in New York. And it also causes the excessive number of petty thefts." "Contrary to general belief, in per cent of Harlem is owned and operated by white and not Race people, and harassment unemployment causes a dire and immediate harm and a殴ured employment program. The children in Harlem, round about there are no playgrounds in the district—no room for any. The women are worthy of the name."

Murphy criminal career, according to records, began in 1905 when he was sent to Emma prison for a crime he was convicted of grand brevity and was sentenced to prison in 1909. He was convicted of grand brevity and was sentenced to prison in 1910. He was convicted to two and a half years in Sing Sing for burglary, and was sentenced for five years in 1919, following his conviction on a charge of forgery, when he was sent to Sing Sing for four and a half years after being convicted

Sun-golden arms outfruit,
warped, shaded
Earth etched against the dust,
Shadows are dwarfed.

Few words are spilt:
Utterly outstretched glow
The seeding wills
With silvery laugh and shout
the truants fool;
Hark how the sage trout
Plump in the pool!

Justifiably the 20th annual tournament of the New York state open championships under the auspices of the New York Tennis association was considered an important event in the work of the tournament. Aside from the champions, some of whom were visitors, many of those who had part in the fun of tennis week were important members of the summer tournaments. The New York Tennis association which ran late into the evening closed the tournament. Many social affairs were given during the week, the largest of which was the Mark's play center. The lanters and varticolored streamers gave a carnival effect together with the soft strains of music played by Fredie Claxon of Rivoli Secondary School, who attended, who danced and made mery with the visitors. Some of the prominent players in the tournament were Satiun Mera, Miss Ora Washington, Dr. Leroy Richardson, Dr. J. L. McKefford, Dr. E. D. Downing, James Stocks, Paul Ford, H. Duncan, Hamilton, Miss B. Winston, Miss Bowl, Secondary School, V. Junior, Dr. Ted Cable, Miss Bettle Caine and H. Hamilton.
