Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY
NO COLOR-LINE IN HEAVEN
[IN THE PITTSBURGH (PA.) POST-GAZETTE]
[Thursday Morning, Dec. 18, 1930]
"There is a city I want to go to, and its name is Heaven."
That is what Charles Wesley Hill used to sing in "The Green Pastures," the play in which he acted the part of the Angel Gabriel.
He will sing the song for us no more, because last week he was killed by an automobile, and perhaps his wish has now been fulfilled.
Hill was a colored man, a great actor and a fine human being. In that section of New York city where most of the people of his race live, he was beloved because he played the part of Gabriel both on and off the stage. All of his race, and white people, too, are better for his having lived amongst us, because he had religion in him and he was sincere in his wish that after life he wanted to go to that city called Heaven.
He was a colored man, but he was whiter than some of the people we know.
And those who believe in the Hereafter should be proud if permitted to mingle with him in that CITY he used to sing about.

Seek Funds to Rebuild Dixie School
IMPORT, Miss. Dec. 21. Another worthy cause which needs the support of the American people is the Mt. Calvary school of Gulfillport which was destroyed by fire some time ago. Since the disastrous blaze David A. Callendar, principal of the school, has had his hands full trying to keep the 600 boys and girls that institution together to see that their institution will be their institution while he is attempting to raise enough money to rebuild the building. A few months ago a representative of the Julius Rosenwald fund called at the school, which is now being conducted by in church buildings and offered $50 from the fund of Gulfillport would raise a like amount. It is the undertaking of this task that is now occupying Mr. Callendar's time and effort.
The whole city of Gulfport is cooperating to raise this money, but since the population is small and most of the people depend upon farming or a living, the raising of 1,000 no easy task. Therefore an appeal is being made to people throughout the country to give theirbits toward this worthy cause. P. A. Stillwell, cashier of the National bank of Gulfport, is treasurer of the school building-fund and is receiving contributions along with Mr. Calendar, and, declares the principal, any amount is welcomed.

hear from him. She thinks he is being held for ransom.
At a late hour Wednesday night no word had been received from Mr. Cole, who was recently chosen ward committeeman of the Deneen faction of the Second ward, succeeding the late Edward II. Wright. Nor has any word come from his adductors. He is affectionate. Mr. ColeDUCTORS afraid to use the telephone last they he trained. Mrs. Cole expects to hear from her husband by mail within a very short time, she said.
Other information she has or suspicions she harbors Mrs. Cole declined to divulge, asserting it would be useful, and he handed. Detectives working on the case were stumped from the outset. No clues, or motives, were available. From information obtained from Booker T. Gatewood, a garageman at the 36th St. garage, 123 E. 36th St. he took Mr. Cole home about 10:25 Monday night, and driving the car, Gatewood said, upon arriving in front of Mr. Cole's house, the passenger got out and he drove away.
Mrs. Cole said she heard the car door slam, and believed it was her husband. She claims that she heard one make a "peculiar" noise in the vestibule shortly after the car door slam, and that there was a tention to it. Nor did she become alarmed when her husband failed to come upstairs, concluding that it was not he who entered.
Knowing his habit of phoning her if he intended to stay away from home all night, Mrs. Cole grew tenuitic the morning when she awoke after the door slam, not been home. Immediately she got in touch with his office in the association's building at 418 E. 47th St. No one there had seen him since the night before.
A number of his friends with whom Mr. Cole occasionally visits to play cards were called; but none could give any information as to his whereabouts.
The only information so far obtained was supplied by Gatewood.

testimony in most instances was damaging. Their stories, placed together, being to the effect that she had stabbed Statesman for no particular reason.
There was one girl, however, Regina Wills, also a school girl years old, stabbed St. N. W. she testified that she saw Statesman "when he smacked Sarah in the face."
All the other witnesses said that the dead man struck the girl only after she had fatally stabbed him with a keen-bladed boning knife.
The tragedy occurred at a party given by Roland Dyson and his wife Julia L. Dyson. Dyson himself described it as "just a little teepu" to drink at the party, but Gardner Joseph D. Rogers, who performed the autopsy, testified that Statesman's stomach showed indications of his having been drinking.
Statesman and Sarah were invited to the party. Sarah arrived about 9 o'clock Friday night. Statesman came in about 15 minutes later with Bingene Blake of 59 Pierce St. N. W. she was an eyewitness to the stabbing.
Blake danced with Sarah. She told him that "Sweeten't (Statesman). is mad with me. He won't speak to me." Blake says between dances he asked Statesman when was the man he was talking to. The woman replied. These young girls run around and have lots of fellows. Blake and Sarah danced together again. They stopped dancing. When he looked for her, again she had on Statesman's hat. He got up and getting late, Blake told Statesman "Let's go." Statesman was sitting at a table talking with another girl. He got up, walked over to Sarah and told her he was going. "No, you're not," she told him. "No, you're not." She stopped foolishness, don't act like that. Blake says the girl then stabbed Statesman and the wounded man struck her. In her confession Sarah says that when she refused to give Statesman his hat, he struck her in the face, he struck her again. Then she stabbed her life off a kitchen table and stabbed him.
Statesman was removed to Freedmen's hospital in a taxcab. He was pronounced dead upon arrival there by Dr. Raymond L. Richardson. Sarah was arrested at her home by her KKK member K. K. G. Tarder of the Second Precinct. "Didn't mean to kill him. I really loved him," she told the officers. Statesman was a man of large build. He weighed approximately 300 pounds and was six feet tall. He was stabbed in the left side of his heart.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.—The subject of reapportionment, which has kept congress in a turmoil for the past two years, is not settled yet, according to present indications, and will come in for more, airing during the session, now going on. The agreement is being issued around the number of representatives the North has in congress based upon the alien population which is non-voting.
The South, claiming that northern states maintain their strength in congress by virtue of the foreign population which is counted in the state, does not vote, has been arguing that North has to be consigned in congress should be cut to conform to the voting strength of the population. Senator A. H. Vandenberg of Michigan has countered with the declaration that he has figures to show that the South would lose some of its representatives in congress if the laws applying to disfranchisement are more forced to be in an open secret that the South has managed to keep up its strength in congress by counting citizens who are entitled to vote, but from whom the ballot has been withheld by various schemes. It is this system that Senator Vandenberg says he is prepared to fight if the South does not have the right to take all actions in the North.

Some nineteen hundred years ago Paul of Tarsus, the foremost student of his day and time, one who had sat at the feet of Greek scholars and read the persecutor of the Christians, while on his way to Damascus was suddenly blinded by the light which shone around and about him, and the queen persuaded Saul, Saul, Saul, why persuaded thou me?
Paul was amazed at this strange phenomenon, which resulted in him, when awakened to the real sense of his responsibility, becoming a devout Christian, and a medium through which the spirit of Christianity was taken to the Gattles.
It is quite probable that nothing in his religious pronouncement became more effective than the thought, "We are men and of angels and have not charity. I become as sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal." Following this, he went on to describe the spiritual comprehension, "Charity never faileth, but whether there be prophets, they shall fail; whether there be prophets, they shall fail; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away." "And now abideth faith, hope and charity, these three," he wrote. This spirit was symbolized Wednesday last at the Second ward regular Republican headquarters, 3471 Michigan Avenue. Anderson, the done, gave to the pope and deserving over twelve hundred Christmas baskets laden with 15 different fruits, fresh pork shoulder, potatoes, sugar, coffee, navy beans, corn, tea, tomatoes, hominy, jelly, oranges and oranges, distilled wine and careful investigation to determine the most needy of the many applicants. In order to facilitate time, tickets were given to men and women and have careful 61 precincts of the ward.
It was a picture of human interest long to be observed. One of the finest years ago the Wise Men journeyed from the East to relieve the condition of human suffering, and to help world abounds in misery, want and suffering which can only be relieved through carrying the souls of the sick and shepherds conveyed to mankind when through faith they followed the Star in the East, the Sword in the West.

BALTIMORE. Dec. 26. — Calling upon the United States to treat the Porto Ricans like members of the people of the United States, a chance that is the right of citizens of the continent, Col. Theodore Roosevelt, governor of Porto Rico, accused the government and the people of the United States of looking down on island residents as “stepchildren.” At a meeting of the Rotary club at a luncheon in Hotel Renner he described the great injustice taking place in the United States. The big problem is poverty, disease and inadequate education. “These three are

When the special grand jury to be impaneed Jan. 1 to investigate the activities of members of the police department starts its work it is expected that the state attorney's office will probe into many phases of police operations: The South Side will be hit hard. It will be hard. There has been, very little "big time" racketeering in that section, but a number of "shaken-up" artists, who have gouged the public and graved their victims before the grand jury. Another situation to be investigated is the attitude of a certain white policeman when dealing with our group, and the attitude of a certain Fortress Drum store, 110th Pl. and Michigan Ave. recently reported that

With the new year should come a new resolution for young people who have recently come to the North from the South and southern schools and colleges. That resolution should be that these young people will hold up their heads like free men and women, that they will learn to walk like free men and women, to the end that they will feel like free men and women. At present there is much to be desired for these young youths. In the first place, the South is no place in which to absorb that freedom of spirit which is essential to true manhood and womanhood. In the phases of our development; what the while South wants is servants—handkerchief-head, hat-in-hand servants—boys and girls who feel neither the desire nor the spirit of true man-

to lift up their feet so that they can walk down the street with grace and with ease. Instead of our boys and girls running from these subjects where they are taught, they should be clamoring for them. They should wish to be known as one who walks as a man walks, and not one who walks so that you can tell where he is, shuffle, even if you are blindfolded.
This is what we need to free our Race and to free ourselves from the depth into which the American Dream is built. The spirit—the kind of spirit that manifests itself in upright walking, talking and conduct. We need boys and girls to be upright and to step and dignified men—who can look any man in the face as they converse with them—who can say to them, "You are a person who comes along, and if dey you, to prove anything to the contrary." Your feel this way you will show it by lifting your feet up as you walk. You will allow your step to be firm and your gaze to be steady.

Careful of your speech and your conduct and you will be surprised at the reception you will receive when you go among men and among

R. C. 'King' Cole Believed to Have Been Kidnaped
Police Captain Horan in Move to Aid Poor
Had Death Certificate Made Out in Advance
Continued from Page 1
Lewis Smith, who lives in the basement of the building in which Mr. Cole resides at 117 E. 37th St.
Gatewood said he saw a car parked between the Cole residence and Michigan Ave. with the bright lights burning when he drove up. He did not regard it as significant at that time, he said.
Smith stated that he left his home and came to 37th St. by way of the alley. He saw Mr. Cole sitting in his car, parked in front of his house. He was alone. Smith said, smoking in front of Mr. Cole's car was another automobile in which were three women. He did not see anything out of the ordinary in Mr. Cole's sitting in his car nor in the fact that three women were sitting in a car directly in front of him. The next news he learned, Smith said, Mr. Cole had been abducted.
Another witness, whose name could not be learned, alleges that he saw two white men loitering suspiciously near the entrance of the Cole residence as he passed there about 10:25. He was headed toward Michigan Ave. As he reached the corner of Michigan Ave. Mr. Cole's car turned east. In trying to bring the statements of the witnesses in line with each other, it was pointed out that Mr. Cole might have driven his car to his residence and waited awhile, contemplating whether to go out again or take his car to the garage. It is probable that it was during this period that Smith saw him. It is believed that he Mler decided not to go and drove to the garage and got Smith to take him home in the garage. Mr. Cole could return the automobile. Speculation as to the cause of Mr. Cole's mysterious and sudden disappearance continued to run. Some
Police Cap in Move to
Capt. John P. Horan, commanding officer of the Stanton Ave. police station, took steps last week to relieve some of the suffering and hardships experienced during these destitute times. To the man under his command, the captain wrote, "Due to the numerous pitiful cases that are daily brought to our attention with which I am well aware that people in and of this country are undoubtedly acquainted, I feel that with your co-operation we should endeavor to create a fund to those paupers who are suffering from hunger and cold. Something must be done also for the children of these parents, who, in some cases, must be about shoes and proper clothing."
"Parents are seeking, but are unable to find employment. I don't like work for contribution as I know well that there is no body of men called on for collections as often as are members of the police department. But the conditions today are so painful that every person who has been in the investigation has the unfortunate as much as they can.
"I am going to ask that cash and every man contribute a fund to be used to investigate him. All cases will be investigated by the station before relief is given."
Captain Horan, brother of the new ballif, former Alderman Albert J. Campbell, has been appointed to the Ave. for year. Since his assignment he has made many friends among the people of his district. According to many of the men under him, who have been attached to the Had Death Made Out
RALEIGH, N. C. Dec. 26—They buried Jacob J. Jones, well-known Raleigh man, here Sunday, Dec. 7. Jacob J. Jones, a graduate, dropped dead here Friday night while attending a meeting of the Col James H. Young camp, Spanish War II officer. He was on the papers he had on his person they discovered Jones and been carrying around with him a properly made out death certificate. He was in the butcher business here at one time, graduated from St. Augustine's school here on May 25, 1927, deciding after he had been in the butcher business a college education. His body was
connect it with gambling operations. This has been discounted by Mrs. Cole, who admits that her husband gambled, but believes that he regards it as a sport and indulges in games only with personal friends. Others point to the fact that he was once connected with the Dunbar Center, a former notorious gambling joint at 51st St. and Michigan Ave, and that he might still be interested in some kind of underworld racket.
One guess is as good as another, and detectives, private and from the Stanton Ave. station and from the state attorney's office, find themselves running around in circles.
According to F. Lewing, business associate of Mr. Cole at the Metropolitan Funeral System, said Wednesday that he had heard nothing from the president.
"King" Cole is known to carry large sums of money on his person and may be a victim of a robbery. Politics also might have had something to do with his being spirted away Monday night.
Policy wheel operators have been harassed considerably during the last month by both the police and the state attorney's office. Cole might have had a hand in that drive and the "big shots" of policy, perhaps, reasoned that there would be an advantage in getting rid of him. Policemen, familiar with crimes and their motives, are trying to find out why anyone would desire Cole's removal. It was stated that gangsters don't kill unless the victim possesses information that is detrimental to their safety, and they are enchancing on their territory. In case the ward committeeman is being held for ransom, although at the time he was being held, he gave less than 36 hours, it is believed that his captors would have communicated with his office or family.

Also, it is the only station that has a Cadillac manned entirely by members of the Race.

Certificate in Advance
prepared for burial by Joseph Cuthins, embalmer for the Raleigh Funeral home, who was president of the graduating class at St. Augustine's college in 1927.
That Jones had a premotion of his approaching death was borne out by the fact that he had his death certificate in the year, and had carried it around with him since that time. All information necessary for a property filled out death certificate was on the one carried by Jones, and all Coroner 4. Wiring had to do was to write the trouble as the cause of Jones' death.

Race Problem Is Subject of Student Meet
Race Problem Is Subject of Student Meet
KNOXVILLE. Dec. 26.—The origin of Race prejudice and what the student may do to prevent it was the subject discussed at the monthly meeting of the East Tennessee Student Interracial commission held at Knoxville college last week. The subject was introduced in brief addresses by Samuel Cain of Knoxville college and was the basis of a lively general discussion which lasted more than an hour. Representatives were present from two Race institutions—Morristown and Knoxville colleges—and from two white schools—the University of Tennessee and Maryville colleges. We have had a student interracial forum which has done much to promote intelligent and helpful attitudes. College is president of the commission this year, and Miss Almeda Ford of Morristown college is the secretary. The next meeting of the group will be held at Maryville college on Jan. 12. This is one of several such student interracial forums operating in the college centers—Nashville, Taleburg, Atlanta, Lynchburg and other cities.
UNEMPLOYMENT ON INCREASE IN NEW YORK CITY
NEW YORK, Dec. 26. — Welfare agencies and citizens as a whole should prepare for the worst winter weather, the welfare council co-ordinating committee, which has just completed a thorough survey of unemployment conditions.
The meeting held last Friday by the committee fear was expressed that after Christmas unemployment will have reached its highest point, bringing untold suffering and distress. It was indicated that it may become necessary to ask the state authorities to declare that an emergency exists. A check-up on the applications filed at various relief agencies during the past week shows that unemployment has doubled. The agencies have found that their facilities are inadequate to take care of the applicants for aid in the form of relief and employment. The agencies have doubled its force of women in the sheltered workshop and now has 100 employed on machines and as finishers, under the supervision of Miss Emma Scott Gilbert and Mrs. Rob-

Africans Have Some Front Yards at That
What the Stars Foretell
By MME. CASSYAIN FLETCHER
JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Dec. 26.—The old missionary appeal for "our unfortunate heathen brothers and sisters across the seas" was publicly exploded here by an unidentified native African before a large gathering which filled Mount Zion A. M. E. church, one of the local leading churches in this city, to hear Rt. Rev. M. H. Davis, missionary, bishop to West Africa of the African Methodist Episcopal church. Following a 55-minute lecture by the bishop, in which, as he said, he had missions, the native, who smoke exceptionally fluent English, from the rear of the vast building opened up a volley of questions which apparently declared, "I admit it to all of them." The native, speaking: "Granting that there are no railroads in Liberia, isn't it true, Bishop, that in several instances, there are hundreds of miles of railways, thousands of miles of

Dick Britten and 'Jesse James' Arrested on Federal Charge
dent of the Jackis Cab company and part owner of the Zeppelin inn, a night club at 31st St. and Indiana Ave.
Reynolds, according to his own statement, got in touch with James Clayborne, known by underworld characters as "Steady Boy," and find their plans.
It was suggested that the Missourians be "put on the spot," and "Jesse" and "Dick" be brought in on the fix to knock them out. The spoils were to be divided, it was agreed.
According to reports, Reynolds and "Steady Boy" were to meet the two men from Kansas City at Mrs. Caruth's home to purchase the loot. One of them was to leave presumably to get money after they were certain the Kansas City dope peddlers had the goods. The detectives were to be stationed outside with instructions to rush into the flat as the man came out, taking him back with them.
It appears that everything worked out as and as they did, and once the visitors left together. The officers are said to have nabbed them as planned. Reynolds is said to have responded to a ring, and threw up his hands. His plea is said to have saved Mr. Caruthers. Mr. Caruthers said the "plight" seem more real "fesso James" is alleged to have directed his vitulnations at Reynolds, frequently threatening to shoot
The Missourians didn't have the money they were believed to have to pay for their equipment, who was pointed out, Reynolds and "Steady Boy" "paid off" not to be "taken down," it was said. Still believing that from out of control, a large sum of money, the detectives piloted them, Reynolds and Clayborne into an automobile and drove away the men. Meanwhile, try pry the information from them as to whereabouts of the cash. After their efforts failed, the men were arrested. The officers, Reynolds and "Steady Boy" are alleged to have not some time later to discuss plans for the theft. The police reported to have been assigned to get rid of the dope, later to divide the cash four ways. The victims, having had time to think of what happened, began analyzing the circumstances. It is believed that it occurred to them that they might have been accused of theft, a friend, theirs, incidentally is well acquainted with "Jesse" and "Dick." This friend got in touch with the police and the investigation was started.
Reynolds is said to have made a complete disclosure of his involvement in the engineer's plot. This confession was made, though only after he was confronted with the evidence he caused him. He was grilled by members of the state attorney's staff for both Mrs. Carruth, whose bond was set at $1,000, and Claybury, who was charged with the deictic clerk with the detectives. The woman, however, will testify as a government witness as will Reynolds, was allowed to sign her own bond.

BOSTON, Dec. 25. — The segregation question at the Sargent School for the deaf, began when students of our group, who recently charged that they were Jim Crowed in assignment to dormitories, were refused admission to a student dance Friday night.
According to Miss Annette Moten, of Gorham school, when asked to secure affair, which had previously been advertized as open to all students, the promoters of the dance said that they were behind the dance learned that nonwhite students wanted to attend. The dance was given by the Commission.
The attention of President Daniel Marsh of Boston university was called to the affair, but he said that "there was no reason" that this was the same Dr. Marsh who announced several weeks ago that Boston university would not tolerate the affair and who also stated that there were no signs of racial segregation in the school.
According to students of our group at Sargent, which is a part of Boston university, they have been compelled to live in a Jim Crowed dormitory, the alternate being dis

Detectives Wellington Briden and James Howland, better known throughout the city as "Dick Britten" and "Jesse James," the terrors of criminals and others, were taken to jail Dec. 17 as they had taken or caused thousands of others to be taken.
Before they were incarcerated, Acting Commissioner of Police John Alcock stripped them of their stars and guns and sent them to the outcome of charges of conspiracy to violate the Harrison drug act, which was placed against them by a federal
---
The officers were arrested by Sergei Akira Alern and by Sergei Akira Alern after a number of witnesses had made statements implicating them in a $10,000 done and devel- opment of a bomb. Briar obtained their release on bonds of $5,000. After they were accused a preliminary indictment was filed against him, Edwin K. Walker. It was continued, but the district attorney's office ordered the witnesses to be held in custody until they were tried. True bills were voted and indictments returned Dec. 23 before Federal Judge James H. Wilkerson, the judge who gathered by investigators working under the direction of Assistant State Attorney Charles Walker and night and day to perfect their case. Howland whose "hard-backed" tacit- tion of the bombing of James is reputed to be one of the toughest cops on the force, "Dick" Britten, who has been Howland's deputy, is known as a "hard-boiled" polygon man.
Many rumors have been set afloat connecting Howland and Britten with unsavory deals. Since their arrest, Britten has been informed that Britten has long been regarded as a dealer in dope. This information, like the tip that led to the arrest and indictment of the no-nonsense anonymous informed by telephone.
Questioning of the witnesses and the detectives, who charged that they have been framed, took place at the racket headquarters of the state attorney's office at 123 W. Madison St. from there Howland and Britten were taken to the federal building and turned over to the U.S. marshal. Mr. Taylor had charge of the presentation of the evidence.

Italian prospectors are drilling in Italy, mining the Red Sea, sludging nothing but dust; French searchers believe that their 'oil goose' is somewhere in Morocco; Belgian engineers are drilling holes in Egypt, Kenya and Rhodesia, and American interests have exclusive rights to what is probably the best oil field in Egypt, Kenya and Rhodesia, and American interests have exclusive rights to what is probably the best oil field in Portugal, West Africa, where 40,000,000 acres are available.

the Natal, where the apparent quietness reigned over the troubled waters of native and British sentiment, after the native riots that accompanied the celebration of the 1914 annexation of the blood river. It was at this battle that Dingan, famous Zulu chiefland, and his native army were almost alone in the Dutch plains on Dec. 16, 1885.
To the natives Dingan is a national hero and the day of this repudiation to repulse the advance of combined Dutch and British forces into its territory, is a national holiday, and the most serious of which occurred in Durban, where more than 2,000 natives and police took part. Out Africa, the most serious of which attempted to break up a poll tax parade. In the street fighting that followed many were killed and over a million were injured, that night reinforcements from all over the Natal word centered in Durban patrolling the streets.
The natives were easily quelled in this city and in Bloemfontein and Pretoria.

Learn Foreign Languages
Three weeks ago The Chicago Defender carried a story about a man who had learned to speak Greek from the Greek proprietor of a shoe shining parlor where he worked. This week a man called at The Chicago Defender office to find if this person who could speak the Greek language was employed. He had a good job to offer him—or to offer any dark person who could speak Greek. We mention this to emphasize the importance of learning a foreign language. Not only does it help you in a tough situation, but it can be to go abroad, but it helps you at home. It helps you make proper contacts, it stirs foreigners in our country to a sense of friendliness that could help you find a job, who speak their language. It helps you break down color lines and neighborhood restrictions because you can then live in the neighborhood with those whose language you speak and have no fear of being male.
Finally, it helps you get jobs. Many large firms would send dark Americans to represent them in the West Indies islands in South America. American countries if they could find Americans who speak the languages of these countries. Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, German, Dutch and Hindu languages could be learned, and to advantage of those who learn them. Why not make arrangements to start at once? And remember that art, sciences or languages are arts, sciences or tongues is time invested which will pay high dividends.

Perry Writes to Clear Up Many Rumors
Stepin Fetchit Refutes Press Stories
BY STEPIN FETCHIT
HOLLWOOD, Dec. 26.—Although I didn't take some direct steps in giving a personal answer to some of the many rumors and scandal that has permeated papers and magazines, yet never have I undertaken to do so. I have been a man but the truth, and in the long run a false statement would crumble under the truth's powerful results. I have never pictured me as an altogether different person, judging from things people who knew less about me than they did—and that was nothing. Nevertheless, there is always a time now that I rear down in a few minutes things that false rumors
First of all I wish to emphasize the fact that I am not writing this book because my position in life at present is being more able to give defense than in needing defense, as I. with all due care now occupy a position that can be envisaged by any actor regardless of who he may be, or how financially he can make an impression for something that would aid the glory and honor of his soul and the souls of many. Because first I respect no man or no amount of money if it is not surrounded with principles that are common to all. I will not accept a position or any amount of money or honor unless I can demand respect and the dignity for instance. If I am a good actor I want the respect and recognition that I am deserved had I won't expect anything because bad motors deserve no respect at any time from anyone.
So it is not my defense that I should benefit of my fellow actors who are trying to get to the top of the business and trying to prepare them well as have brains enough to know that nothing worth while can be acquired without having to overcome many obstacles regardless of what race, color or creed you may be. Because no pain is always be presented with obstacles and if you fail to overcome them, as you shipped is lost. One year and a half ago there were idols who tonight can find other piloted over them in their own pictures. A year and a half ago there were more piloted over them to big to ever have to humble to the equal demands of the producers that they are demanding and they could not meet that demand. And although all theatures demanded and they could not humble instance the talises really were something that I used to pray for when I did it, even know what
I know this statement needs more explanation than this, so I will tell you why I want to invent talking pictures years ago on a carnival before any one ever dreamed that such a invention could occur in the motion picture industry. Really, I have so much to say that I really want to get to know the subject to the other, so I will have to stop here and see what point I really am trying to get to. Oh yes, you know, I will tell you that I titled "Myself for My Fellow Man's Sake," as well as to remind my own friend that I am trying to make, because some people think I am ready to stop, and really I haven't started to do the work. I have to work through the power and grace of God for His glory and honor and the salt in my soul so I can live, if the Lord does not seem to care.
But whatever may happen to me I hope I never make the sad mistake to think, or every try to accomplish anything without the help of God or anything that's not directly for His glory and honor and the salvation of my soul, because if I do I might appear very successful to men, but in reality I would be a miserable failure and would be trying to fight the only power in the world as well as leaving the only real goal, or in a plain shownman's way of speaking. I don't want to ever be so weak as to think that I have to be a "yes man" to some one who has only the box office in mind regardless of the scandal or bad impression they give so long as they can get by and prove things that are illegal to be legal.
And second, as a comedian portraying the character I do on the screen, I know I never could demand International respect and admiration or against any popularity that would be beneficial to myself or my employer unless I am clean cut and free from all suggestions or giving to scandal.
Because first the Lord says woe to the entire motion picture and the theatrical director for him that scandal never born, and second, because I'd rather leave the entire motion picture and the theatrical money and other things it might have to offer feeling within myself that having been a clean cut comedian than to lay up a million times a million fortunes resorting to smut and to some of our best artists who have allowed others to cheat them out of others to compel them to resort to familiarity, smut or scandal to children or of "just putting a die pop up." Next time I write I will tell you of several cases that have happened to me which will prove that I am here for business for myself and those by which I must be clean cut or else they can keep anything they may want in business must be clean cut or else I can serve God or get to heaven any other way, and second, what would it profit me if I gained the money and suffered the loss of my soul?

Levette Spiels Low Down on Movie Dope
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 25—Production "going on as per usual regard" is a Christmas or holiday, that is a Christmas or holiday, the joy of the directors? The pictures have to be finished even if it crabs old kings Kringle's act, as a rule Christian-themed movies, caught miles from nowhere on location, or if a studio shot has to be finished, it is just too bad. The amount is really getting the breaks recently. In a talkie in which she is now working she gets a number of close-ups and assistant director, Oscar Smith. scar Smith is more careful of the family ties than the white stars who she gets kots here. Your gossner was begging him for a dandy still picture of a very warm and loving emulatee Oscar (stuttering increased his fame, but he solemn does it now except that he mans up to kill me). I want my wife to kill me or me, which is just as bad? No, no, none of that!" At that the genial Mr. Smith is a lovely disposition but Smith isn't taking any chances.

REMINISCENCING
CHRISTMAS is the time to dig up pleasant memories of the past, renew old acquaintances and more firmly cement the old friendships. Just now I am thinking of my old Logansport home on the banks of the Wabash. I have seen many Christmas days come and go since I left the home town, but none of them have ever quite come up to those good old Christmas eve in little old Bother church.
My mother was there in those days. How she ever got together Christmas presents to gladden the hearts of her generous family is still a mystery to me. All of her prescriptions were written for her always prescribing a Christmas tree for us all. Mother could have given Mr. Coolidge lessons in economy and generosity.
The three buddies: George Hill, George Parker, Harry Brooks and Arthur Winslow; and my girls, Maudie Winslow, Mary Allen, Orn Brooks, Pearl Donee and Malek Parker. I have also and several other my uncles, Uncle Jake, Uncle Newt, Uncle Joe Carter and Uncle Allen. The first time I played Logansport with a show they all came to see. Uncle Joe was the one who uncle Joe had never been in a theater before, and Uncle Jake and Uncle Newt were risking their church membership for the second time in 36 years. How those two kids were only 61 years old; Uncle Jake was next with 32 years to his credit; then Uncle Jake, who had ambled with 32 years on his shoulders, still came.
S. T. Whitney
The next day the papers had to put turns about my nieces. And there and Clarence Hill and George Chap of my short puglistic career. And him and Orville Turner and all the Turner's, Parkers, Winslows, Price, Allens, Harris and Joneses. Would it not be wonderful to meet them all again under a heavily laden Christmas tree in little old Bethel church. Many of them have passed. Soon all of us will be missing when they call the roll for Christmas, but so long as I have life the memory of those dear friends and those endearing scenes will linger. To those who are left, here's wishing them a Merry Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from a home town boy. Yes, boy, for when I have lost my youthful spirit of Christmas I will be, I hope, in the company with the One whose slogan was and is "Peace on earth, good will toward men."
The first time I met Uundle Rubie, named Hogan, he was wawing to Nolo Hogan, the man who fitted Homer and yours truly for the first time. Mr. Feldman introduced and continued his discourse: "If a choral girl is worth hitting she is not contess, saint it right, boys?" We answered in the affirmative, although thought they were well paid when we handed them $14 at the end of the year. We dig at Uundle Dudley. He had just heard that Dud was paying some of the first time we met Williams and Walker they were playing "Abyssin's shine" one of the greatest Race shows of all times. It was written by Jesse music by Will Marlon Cook. After the show some one insisted that we meet the great stars in their dressing continued dressing.

Regiment" through the South. The regiment did not do much in a high school environment, but it set a high precedent for artistic achievement. Cole and Johnson were the only students in the whole company when we met them, but the esprit do corps was intact. The company had stuck with the program, winning the won success it so richly merited. When I joined the chorus with the band, I saw how show didn't those boys lead me a merry life. Walter Hillard, George Day, Jude Gussin, Gus Hall, Frank Johnson, singers and regular fellows, all of them. Hillard is still going on and Frank Montgomery is successfully conducting a dancing studio and staging white revues. Will Ramaye managing a cabaret in Atlantic City. Marion Smart and Jennie Hillman were the answer to the masculine challenge. They didn't send the local shoals out, and how. A spread that didn't reprint their silken garments. If everything their silken garments, if everything their chamagne, they locked up their peek of diamonds in their strong box, pulled on their silken nighties and wore down on their virtuoso couches.
Marion didn't believe in luck, only good luck. She used to send me out for a bag of peanuts and we would lock the dressing room door and sat them. If peanuts are bad luck in a theater I can stand a whole lot of the kind of bad luck they brought in Marion. Two wealthy husbands and a high place in Dayton society. I recommend peanuts for all aspiring chorines.
I'm thinking about Ed Harris, a splendid baritone singer, and his beautiful wife, Hilda. Ed was a police officer with an excellent record for several years after he left the show. Hilda didn't believe in bad luck. We played a theater with a roll curtain. Hilda sat down on the roller just before curtain time. There was a chorus of protest. Hilda laughed. A few minutes later she broke her ankle on the stairs. Which proves that roll curtains and not peanuts are bad luck. I'm glad roll curtains are out of date.
My friends are so numerous and

friends. I am sending

A True Christmas Story Related by a Good Fellow
By HELEN M. SAYRE
Carnen Ave. was not among the city, in fact it was as no many of it in the city. The abode of people in good circumstance jucked frame loaves were drab, wet and crumpled into a soogy, filthy mess churned into a soogy, filthy mess idolwales were almost impossible.
In one of the houses, which were very much alike with their high woodchick steps mounting to the second story, was the welfare station. It was growing dusk and the place was almost deserted as the social worker wearily entered to make a final report of investigated cases for the day. The office staff was already quitting, wishing one another a merry Christmas. She was so tired as she began to file her cards. However, it would not be long, now before she would be home and try to banish from her mind some of the distressful scenes she had witnessed in her round of visits for the day. Oh, it was so good to have a real, cozy home to go to and love ones awaiting your return; to have a part each Christmasday in the happy little ceremony of dressing the tree, placing the gift for each loved one, singing the old, ever beautiful cards and listening to mother tell the story of the first Christmas.
A mystical calm and peace seemed to be all about and night was fast settling. But it was the first time I had to go to the door, ready to leave. Just then she heard heavy, unsteady steps ascending the stairs. She hoped it was not another appeal for this life. What could be done? So the late hour? There would knock and she distinguished the trouble of a child's voice. She opened the door and there was a shaltishly dressed man holding little girl by the wall. She could not move. She was a child, not more than 5 years of age, more neither but nor coal, and only a pair of worn blue overalls in lieu of a fret. I don't know whose kid this is. lady. I guess she's lost; found her sitting on the carb under the viaduct. Couldn't go out? I was so sorry she lives so I brought her here.
In the meantime the child had slipped by into the room and her eyes were half as long, he had seen with bright expectancy. "You see, lady," the man continued, "when I asked her where she was going she just kept on saying, 'I want to find Santa Claus and I can't do it. I'm so good to be here because I'm a mama I know who we'll live."
So, I know where we live says that he doesn't know where we live.
Wrapping a warm scarf about the body of a person, the worklet set out to find her home. The child led the way. It was not far and soon they came to a dilapidated tenement house, and in the early afternoon she sat in the mother in bed, burdened with the weakness of approaching motherhood.
The poor woman was startled when the police came and stranger, but the warm, caroling smile of her sister and her husband, and desire to help goon canned her fears. In a few minutes the mother had taken her to the house where her husband was serving time in the prison. She coiled weapon. She said since they only work he could get was helping her, and he had bought the gun for protection in making his rounds at night, but she only way to try to pawn or sell the weapon was to buy it. The only assistance she was receiving was to guard her sons could share her from their scarcity and only a few acquaintances in the house her story she was sobbing pitifully.
The worker looked about the room. It was miserably furnished with a rickety-in-clothes with a few fish blankets, two chairs, a stool and table, a trunk, a small cook stove that furnished heat and a box with some coal in it was leslie. This stove. There was a place of carpet, running the length of the bed—nothing more. Here was a problem: something must be done. She had to, less than one hour, help less mother and child to face Christmas day in that coalition. On the table was a plate, with a few fragments of food.
Suggestions
Nuts that are kept cold will not become rancied.
A border of mashed potatoes is attractive around the boiled or planked fish.
The olecloth washable tablecloths are practical in the house where there are many children.
After pooling banana, serape the pulp until the fuzzy surface is removed, and they will be much more digestible.
The vacuum cleaner will effectively draw out all the dust and dirt collected in the hot-air registers.
Never put soap directly on the blankets; neither rub them. These are two precautions against shrinking and hardening.
Should not clothes be required to re-
lieve pants, it will be to get them in the
upper part of a steamer with the water
boiling underneath. They can then be
kept easy, without the trouble of
wringing them out.

Society
By Nettie George Spendler
The shop windows are dressed in their gayest holiday attire, green and silver wreaths with their red rimmings tiny Christmas-trees filled with electric bulbs of various colors are seen in windows in the chalked building. The building is full of other small-size windows from their several colleges in heard as they gunnier past, and cards announcing visitors to the city portray the fact that the Yuletle season is here. But the old Christmas spirit of hilarity is not. A very old sadness has been employed in the Chicness places where Santa Claus will not visit has awakened and the Chicness places where Santa Claus will not visit has awakened. Every one to a sense of responsibility, the social groups are doing wonderful work to alleviate this condition. The whole city has gone into a full-time life of the city as the city is the most of the city's social life. All available to the many clubs sponsoring such events are pitiful letters in the office of the Chicago Defender appearing for old. Christmas this year means little to most of us in a social way. But our hearts will be lighter and we will be more aware of the commonness of the school and the community than we. The Friendly Life Sisters have arranged a novel cabaret party for the benefit of the girls in their charge. They have secured the filize cafe for the evening of Dec. 30 and Ernie Young, a Loop producer, will return to the school. It is a life-long holiday for the children and Mrs. Beatrice Robertson, the thirteenth and 300 Friendly Big Sisters are doing their bit to safeguard their girls during the wintry months. The ladies' Labor of Love club is another group to be highly commended for the cause of the members in looking after the poor school children. The cause is ours. The group will be to care for the distressed, and social prestige has been cast to the wind.

HAMPTON FIVE DOWNSNORMAL TOSSERS, 30-16
HAMPTON INSTITUTE. Val. Dec. 20—Hampton Institute's basketball team opened its 1980-31 cage season here by slipping a 3 to 16 to heating the Minor Normale five. The game was slow and unexciting first half with the Washington lads playing a defensive game. Lancaster broke the game with a free throw and a basket by Captain Gregory added to the score. Hopkins came back with a two-pointer for the Teachers.
A period of defensive play followed and then the Seissers opened up shading from every corner.
The first half ended with the score 20 to 8.
The second period was much faster, with Hunt's superb passing, Cole's unanny ability to make his shot from any angle, and the floor work of Lance. The entire Hampton team worked smoother than during the previous period.
The game saw many new faces on the field, including William and Hunt being the leader men of last year who saw action, and K. Williams, Lancaster, Carter, Burkes, Scott, Morion, Hooker, Branch and Lyle being the new men of last year who saw action, and seven twin pointers and Captain Gregory and Lancaster tied next at seven points each.

HOUSTON HIGH TEAM DOWNS TULSA,25 TO 0
Bv C. A. LADNER
HOUSTON, Tex. Dec. 20. —The batting eleven of Phillis Wheatley high ended its season successfully by decisively trouncing the Booker T. Washington Hornets of Tulsa, Okla. 25 to 0.
"The Texas lads with a series of the best pitching in the nation and possessed both the highest-touched Hornets and best claim to the national high school championship of the Race, which was gained by Tulsa last year.
"Coach of Goddell's wonderfully coached aggregation reached the heights of gridron supremacy by annihilating the Hornets, who boasted an enviable record over a 10-year season and who had allowed only one touchdown to be scored on them this season.
Heavy Favorites
The Tulsans were topphey favorites as the game began, but after the first 10 minutes of play it was evident that the Hornets had left their sting at home. The thunder should protect a moment to damage, end, who did enough damage single-handed to wailh the Tulsans at their own air game. Armstrong received passes in the first half, one of which resulted in a score, tossed passes in the second half, as well as doing the kicking, and recovered a blocked punt 1 inch within the end zone to completely grab the spotlight," says the Hornets' chronicle, leading Houston white dale.
Every Man Functions
Every man on the Wildcat machine turned in a next performance. Judy Williams was a thom in the sides of the boys from the Oklahoma city, as were Harvard, the best pass heaver in the state; Co-Capt. Mack, playing with the boys, was co-captive; Red Lewis, shattering the line with his hard driving. In the line Holmes, McGruder, H. Lewis, R. Smith at end, put up an impenetrable wall: at guard Green and Co-Capt. Turk Laster were exceptional with their hard low and vicious tackling, getting into every
Houston Takes Lead
Twice in the early part of the first quarter the Wildcats were in soaring distance, but fumbles cost them an outing. The Wildcats shot a 25-yard pass to Armstrong, who rolled over the line for the first touchdown. Lewis plunged for the extra point on a fake kick. Armstrong was completed on Tulsa's 2-yard line as the quarter ended. On the first play of the second quarter Rol Lewis smushed over left guard for a count. The extra point
Score Again
The Tulsians came back strong in the third quarter with a passing attack. Starks got loose, took a pass 10 yards to the Wildcats' 5-yard line, and scored the first touchdown over. The ball was over on downs. Wheatley kicked out to midfield. Tulsa attempted a pass which was intercepted by Judy Williams, who raced 60 yards for a touchdown, recessing the entire 30-yard line. Tulsa diced in this touchdown by taking out an Oklahoma who was just about to stop Williams. Extra point was missed. Tulsa completed three passes for three consecutive first downs in the first half. Late in the quarter Holmes, Wildcat tackle, blocked a Tulsa kick and Armstrong recovered across the line for the last touchdown. No point. Final score, Wheatley 25, Tulsa 40, or Tulsa 40 for Tulsa.

TRACK COACH IS OUSTED AT LINCOLN OF MO.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. Dec. 18. J. D. Parks, successful track coach here at Lincoln university for the past three years, was ousted from his duties as track coach several days ago. Parks, the body is up in arms about the matter.
Athletic Director D. M. Waters, after completing one of the most miserable football seasons in the history of the Missouri college, posted Parks and assumed the role of track coach here.
Parks had met with unusual success with his track team, the Parks-concheated teams being undefended in three years of competition.
His track team in 1929 attracted national attention when it won the acronym trophy. Parks went to St. Louis in 1929 against a large field of white colleges of Missouri and Illinois.
Parks had managed to have a whiting track team despite the fact all other teams in St. Louis had more games than they won. He also is popular with the student body.
Cajun, Emmitte Wallz, noted Lincoln Cajun, 50, and Winston U. 50 and 300-yard champion, threatened to resign and the entire track squad to President Young, stating that unless Parks is reinstated they will not report for track. Cajun, 50, and Parks was ousted as track coach by Waters purely for personal reasons.
In the meantime track work is at a standstill at Lincoln.

Alexander Makes Good at Western State College
MACOMB, Ill. Dec. 26—Following closely in the footsteps of the great Ernie Page, the great Hare athlete, he was introduced at Teachers college a few years ago, Elmer Alexander, another member of our group, is making an excellent record in three major sports here. He was a member of the Aurora high school two years ago. Last year he won his letters in football, basketball and track. Last football season Elmer was a member of the Aurora high school two years ago. This year, due to a shortage of good material, he was placed at one of the end positions and made good there. In fact he did so well that he was named the Little Nineteen conference. He has two more years of football competition. Last year Alexander was a member of Teachers basketball team and the quintet which was the strongest in the conference, winning 10 out of 15 games. This season Alexander is almost confident to become a regular on the sound.
In track he placed fourth in the
100-meter race with a leap of
21 feet. 119 inches.
SIMS, ALA. STATE WRITER, SCORES SPORT SCRIBES
EY J. B. SIN$
(Editor's note: J. J. SIN$ is a publisher, agent at the Alabama State Teachers college at Montgomery, Ala.)
MONTGOMERY, Ala., Dec. 26.—The echoes of the swan song of the football away and now comes the time for the Race sports writers annual tirades upon the faults of the football year, the errors of the mentors, the whys training, in our institutions, the charge of proselyting and a million and one other thing that seem to sap our interest, as regards our football. Now comes the time for the plecking of all-American eleven and what-not—all well and good, but why lament on the design grid game as practiced in our colleges.
Game Doesn't Pay
We often wonder why the game does not pay in Race Institutions. We often wonder why the stands are practically empty at most of our contexts. Yet our games are as thrilling as any of the others and surely they can fail. Very seldom can we point to instances where unsponsorlike tactics have been employed. Our contests surely carry all the trimmings and color that any of the others carry, and we know that we know ourselves why the apparent lack of interest on the part of the public at large. Why is it that hardly ever do large crowds occupy the stadium when our teams are engaged in combat. Why is it that our supposedly close out as miserable financial failures.
Writers Pan Teams
We venture to say it is because of the yearly attacks levied at the colleges by some of our brilliant female students of the time of the year when they have very little to write about—the lag between the football and basketball seasons. So, in order to have something to tell the students of talented gentlemen dish out an attack on the gridiron activities of the past season, we call down the coaches and some times the presidents and trustees of the various schools, even going so far as to suggest the removal of certain mentors. They accuse the schools of prescribing play, little fools and make mountains out of them. They seem to think that theirs is an assignment from which will come many laurels, should their attack be heavy enough. And so these distinguished gentlemen grind out words and phrases. They name a few individual stars and names of reasons for these stars not being what they really should be.
They let out the loud war whoop that our teams have no team play—that they depend on one or two men, and yet they say there are very few of them. And so they write. They imitate the fact that because Race football is "waning" they cannot select a mythical all-American, and yet they pick up a big dispute if contradicted. They accuse the officials of gross unfairness and some accuse even the water boys—innocent as they are—to bust the students and clash they no longer loudly enough at the game. They say there is no color. They call for "belly-aching?" Why is it that each year our sports writers must cast stones at Race football. The coaches are certainly prepared and skilled in their part, but most part they are exponents of good sportsmanship and believe in instructing their charges likewise. The officials have been competent and satisfactory and pleasing manager.
There have been quite a few stars and yet our teams have employed teamwork as never before. The students are "seen most gracious in their support.
Football Not Perfect
We do not claim that our football has been flawless. We do not say there is no room for improvement. But we do offer, our very humble opinion that our sports writers are tearing into shreds the confidence of the public with their yearly attacks on sports officials. Some good, clean articles would help, and by clean we mean original and truthful.

TUMBLE, 37-28 BEFORE STRONG BALTIMORE FIVE
BALTIMORE, Dec. 20.-Morgan college basketball team, last year's champions, were handed a 37 to 28 rushing beast at New Abert audition, that night in the Baltimore Athens in a hot encounter.
The Morgan aggregation showed considerable lack of practice in this game, which Coach Hurt plans to improve. A large crowd witnessed the game.
The game was closely contested during the first period and seems to have developed into a see-saw game, with the Athens aggressive guard, cut by the opposing team, tack that gave the Greeks a 20 to 14 lead at half time.
At the opening of the second half Cannon was in Wilson for Murdock, the class leader in high-class basketball, but failed to check the onward attack of the Athens.
Bailey, left guard to the Athens, was point man for the co-op with seven baskets and two free throws for 16 points.
Henderson of the Athens was sensational throughout the game, having pushed closely for scoring holes.
Conrad, Hackett and Capt. Babs
Jones were by far the outstanding
player on the Bears team, with Wil-
ford playing well and Harduck
playing a well-rounded game.
The game for Coach Hurt was more
or less an experiment to test the
players' ability to work in a team
work in order that the players
might hit their stride before meeting
the Lions outfield on Jan. 16.

Only two changes of major importance have been affected in basketball rules for this season. The ball jump or on a held ball may tap the ball twice with one hand. Last season the double tap was permissible only the ball remained with the field, the child can involve the involves free throws on fouls committed while a player is shooting at the basket. Last year when the field goal was made the player fouled was out of play and was out of play after the second. This year there will be only one free throw awarded on a foul when the foul is under. Of course, two free throws can be given if the basket was missed.

Crack High School Harrier
A
NELSON STEVEN'S
Popular athlete of West high school, Rochster, N. Y., who climaxed a brilliant cross-country career at the West side institution by captaining the orange and black harriers to their fourth straight city interscholastic championship and the first under their new coach, Myron White, recently. Stevens won the individual title in fast time. Although Stevens, has competed in the NCAA Division I, he has played the half-mile. He forced Bouton of Syracuse Central high to a new state interscholastic record of 2 minutes and 3-5 secondes two years age. Stevens was right on Bouton's heels to stride the fastest half ever credited to a Rochster high school lad.

WILBERFORCE LOSES IN LAST MINUTE, 34-33
WILLIER FORCE, Ohio. Dec. 12. Glover, visiting guard on the Bayton Y, M. C. A. basketball team, boomed in a basket in the last minute of play here last night in Beaumont game, which gave his team a 34 to 33 victory over the Wilberforce university five before a large assemblage of fans.
Play Is Ragged
Both teams at times exhibited a ragged passing attack and missed a number of field goals, but throughout the contest played a spirited and close game.
At half time the count stood at 17-all.
Ralph Scurry, Xenia product and former East high luminary, distinguished himself as high scorer with a total of 15 points.
**Scurry Features**
Scurry's shooting was the feature of the Wilberforce attack and shortly after the opening of the second half the Buckeye star registered a trio of markers that had the fans, to their feet.
Scurry'sunning was matched by "Deadeye" Smith of the visitors, who whizzed the ball through the cords from almost all angles of the court and dropped in two free throws to bring his total points to 14.
**Glover Breaks It Up**
With a score of 32 to 20, and with a lead of 33 to 32, the Bulldogs saw victory go deafing as Glover, standing just beneath the basket, received a beautiful pass from George and looped the ball through the net for the winning point.
Wilberforce displayed a better defensive than average back and lost excellent scoring opportunities by failure to get the range of the basket.
Jack Scott, star Wilberforce forward, was forced from the game in the second quarter with a badly wrenched ankle, Lucas taking his place. The play of Singer, a freshman, at guard and of Greene, also a guard, was outstanding, while the all-nound play of George, Glover and Smith sparked for the visiting quint.

ROCHESTER LAD
IS CAPTAIN OF
TRACK TEAM
ROCHESTER, N. Y., Dec. 26.—Michigan may have its Eddie Tolan, dash artist and world's fastest in the 100, but right here in West, high school, in the person of Nelson Stevens, who has for three years been the hostone of the distance department of that school, is another potential marvel for some lucky university.
Nelson Stevens has captained three Vest high cross-country teams including the 19th inter-schoolal cross-country championship. His specialty, however, is the half mile, in which event he has given some fine exhibitions, and for the first time in new state inter-schoolal record in the meet held in Syracuse, forcing Bouton of Central high in Syracuse to set a new record of 2 3-5 minutes one of the three Rochester representatives to place. Cross winning the 100-yard dash for Eust high and Baker of Monroe taking second in the meet. Stevens demonstrated his versatility when he won three first places in five events participated in, during the recent Monroe county pentathlon, and did well in the 70-yard low hurdles. Both of these last two victories were upsets at the time, for he dealt mainly in distance events. The Niven pentathlon trophy was awarded to him this year at the conclusion of this meet.
"Nels," as his teammates call him, has been all that a captain should be for the Occidental Harriers this fall. He is a leader in word, capturing first or second place in most of the meets, and spurring his team on to win the city inter-scolastic championship. Unselfishness and generosity were well displayed in his on occasions during the past season, once in the meet—with the Frosh, when he waited for four of his teammates to catch up to him, finishing in a five-way heat for first, and again in a five-way heat for first, when he did the same thing.

SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY CLOSES SUCCESSFUL FOOTBALL SEASON BY WINNING 7 OUT OF 8 GAMES
BATON ROUGE, La., Dec. 26.—Southern university has just closed a very successful eight-game scheduled this season, the first time the institution has treated until the last game with Prairie View.
The team that represented Southern university this season is the backbone of the Southern California system, which has as one of its essentials perfect blocking.
A few years ago the back who could outplay the quarterback star. Men were placed on the all-American teams on that basis, but not so now.
A good blocker is much better than a defensive back. It is this that the Southern university football team under Coachs Taylor and Lewis has majored in. Blocking is essential and has won a few games.
Southern started this season with things looking gloomy. Washington, Haynes and Strong were absent from the forward wall. The backfield was filled with players like NCALIST. But after a few days of work things took on a different air.
Southern's first game was played against the Alexandria Hut City league, which he played about the game, as can be told by the 7-0 score piled up by Coach Taylor's charges.
The team bishop from the Lone Star state. Southern completely outplayed the somewhat bewildered Texas team. Time after time they traveled through the Bishop defense for five games, and blew Hiekman had written his name in football history because of his play in this game. The big halfback was responsible for two touchdowns from inside the masses. The final score was 6-10.
Tie Wiley. 6-6
It was at the Louisiana State fair that Southern displayed its punch, for in the first quarter C. Purnell twisted, and in the second quarter S. Squared squirmed his way to a touchdown. In the second quarter Wiley scored as a result of a blocked punt. The game ended with New Orleans Tiger was the next for Southern. Southern overwhelmed New Orleans with a heavy bombardment, 53 to 13. In the third quarter they affair with New Orleans Southern had an old grievance to settle with Alcorn college. They did so, and won a 30 to 13 victory, the powerful hilbillies of Mississippi.
Lose to Prairie View
The last game of the season and perhaps the one that will long be remembered by Texas people as well as the players in the Prairie View-Southern classie that was fought on Turkey day at Prairie View.
It was in this game that Spigner and C. Purnell distinguished themselves, and the team lost this contest to Prairie View, 13 to 0. Southern is first in the Gulf Coast conference, which includes Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi, and is second in the Southwest conference. This last game in three years Coach Taylor has molded together a team that has risen from mire to heights of attainment.
Austin Nips K. A. C. Quintet by 18 to 16
KNOVILLE, Tennessee, Dec. 26. The Panthers chalked up their first victory of the season from the Knoxville Titans. Being doped to lose the game by several points, the Austin high boys came through in nice style to defeat the K. A. C. team, which is composed of seven players. The score at the end of the half was 10 to 10. Early in the second half the Panthers took the lead, which held to the final wrist. The score at the end of the third point man of the fray, T. L. Leonard gained six points for the winners. In the preliminary the Lion Titans won over the Comets, 14 to 12, with B. Cary starring.

D.A.A.Hands Texas Quint 39-23 Defeat
DETROIT, Dec. 21—A stiff second half rally by the Texas Stars availed the visitors nothing and the D. A. A. five kept their record unblemished by virtue of a 39 to 23 win.
The local quintet outclassed their rivals and went to the intermission leading, 19 to 13.
The Texans were unable to cope with the fast and tricky dribbling of the D. A. A. A. five, nor could the visitors persecute the defense erected by the visitors.
Little Gus Finney started the locals off with two baskets in a row and the first quarter ended with Detroit leading, 11 to 5. Wells and Gibbs accounted for the Texas points.
After the rest period the Texans gained a pair with four shots leading the way with three baskets in rapid succession, the visitors came within two of knotting the count.
However, Carter began to find the loop and increased the Detroit margin to a safe size again.
Central A. C. defeated the Central Rival team in the preliminary game. The battle was a grade affair and was hard fought.

HOUSTON, Dec. 26- All roads are leading to Buffalo stadium here, where the undefeated Tuskegee Institute football team, five times calamities of the national football champions, face the fast-stepping Prairie View eleven in what will be the banner clash of the season New Year's day.
Grd fans from all over the state, from New York to Nippl, Alabama and other sections of the country are coming here in big crowds.
Houston is seething with football excitement. And little wonder. All of them are fighting that the undefeated record which the Golden Tigers of the school that Booker T. Washington found have run up in the last two years will be marred when Coach Sam Taylor Panthers fight against them. Texas Vianney Victory It isn't hard for Texas to visualize victory for their team. Losing only two games, the Panthers have piled up one of the greatest records that a team at the state institution has amassed in a long, long time. The games already played, has the 272 games against 29 for all opponents. In compiling this feat they have beaten such teams as Bishop, Sam Huston and the Southern university team of the season tied Wiley, which earlier in the season tied Wiley.
Lost to Wiley
The Taylor-coached crew lost to Wiley in the last minute of play, 17 in Dallas state fair, and dropped a 6-to-0 encounter to the powerful team of Langston university at Langston, Okla.
Taylor was the coach of the Clark and beat Tuskegee, 12 to 9, in 1925. Taylor is confident that the Prairie View eleven, with all its power, weight and brains, will do the same against the invaders from Alabama.
Abbott Says Little
Coach Cleve Abbott of Tukeskee, in his characteristic manner, is saying a defense designed to stop the ramblings of Captain Mason, Roberts and Fullback Dupree. Alabama backers are, however, taking a defensive approach. Coach Abbott reinquilines and are saying that I Shanklin, Colonel Bob Stevenson and "Five-Yard" McCarthy don't ramble in the same way as the players. Alabama State, Alabama State, Alcorn, Lane, Taladega, Knoxville and Wiley this season, then they are willing to talk in the main topic of conversation. The way the tickets for the game are going indicates a complete sellout.

WHY A TRA
LETTER TO THE P
By A. PHILI
President of the Brotherhood
In the American Order
I am addressing you this letter in order to acquaint you, first hand, with every phase of the development of the movement to organize the Pullman porters in order that your attitude toward this movement may rest upon a basis of understanding.
First, why did the Pullman porters organize, think it up, and face this question and hence face this question and honestly seek an answer. Doubts you can recall several precepts that the Pullman porters to organize, especially during the war. Each time the main question is asked, the portersutions. Evidently the porters then job that organization would enable the government, through the United States railroad administration, to were directors general, encouraged the organization, view to adjust disputes between carriers and employees, government set up the board of wages and working conditions. This United States railroad labor board, which was set up under the Transportation of minors in 1829, made up of hundreds to private hands in 1829.
During this time you organized the "employee representation plan" for the company to meet for about six years unanticipated. On Aug. 15, 1925, the Brotherhood of the Masons was the outgrowth of long, deep-seated grievances which had been passed, grievances because of poor working conditions, which the company refused. Finally, they are not imagined, but very real grievances which can impede the company's ability to insured either by the company or the porters. Despite several wage con-
after its inauguration, porters received a wage of only $75.00 a month, thereby being compelled to rely for a living on tips, which a scientific survey by the New York Labor Bureau revealed averaged only $58.15 a month, out of which an average occupational expense of $22.52 must come. This brought an income of only $1,144.16 a year, whereas the United States bureau of labor statistics has set $20,073 as the minimum yearly wage upon which an American family can live in health and decondom.
imposed by this of the systematic on-
ation by some of your local officials. The inability of porters to get a fair hearing on charges made against them under your plan, the failure of porters to get an adequate redress for their grievances, the obvious company control of the plan, made organization among the porters, as among your conductors, necessary and inevitable. I am sure I need not tell you that porters would not always be content to work the long hours of nearly 400 hours per month under the 11,000 mileage basis without compensation for overtime.
May I say that the employee represents the firm's commitment, field days, quarters, lends, stock distribution plant, presence of insurance, courtesy and diplomatic, fair or permanent solution to a problem, fair or proper name, above named conditions are bound to water, encumberer and inundate. Such, in the beginning of the brotherhood.
Who Began It?
In order that your mind might be disbanded of any misrepresentation by your company, you must permit me to assure you, brotherhood, by our records, that the Pullman porters and their equipment to organize the porters and maids. In the home of a porter, 27 years in your service, the first meeting of the Pullman porters, Lancaster, 17 years a porter, and A. L. Totten, nine years a porter, both of whom are employee representation plan and the Pullman Porters Benefit association, were present. I was the only person who was present. But I am certain that you will admit that porters have as a result never a porter to represent their company. But I am certain that you will admit that porters have as a result never a porter to represent their organization as the stockholders of the Pullman company have to employ a stockholder to represent them.
Who Composed It?
And the brotherhood is composed of Pulham porters. Nor are they all the same. The average services age of the members is 36 years, nine years. It may be interesting for you to know that all of the organizing committee members are co-operative and administrative machinery of the brotherhood, are composed of the pulham porters, who in your service, service ages ranging from 18 to 60. Who Controls the Brotherhood? The control of the brotherhood is the control of the porters, who influence it by their membership and assessments when essential. Contrary to unfounded charges, none of the porters are members of the leaders or communists. Its leaders do seek to overthrow the United States religion. The brotherhood is perfecting a request to permit the Pulham company to be responsible citizens to institute an investigation to establish the truth or responsibility of citizens.

Purpose of Brotherhood
Purpose of Brotherhood
The purpose of Brotherhood is lawfully to secure better wages, improved working conditions for the porters and to accept and accepted method of collective bargaining. This principle is recognized in the new Railway Labor act, which you supported as a member of the General Duties in section 2 that requires that your employees, provides under the head of "General Duties" in section 2 that requires that your employees shall be considered and, if possible, decided with all expeditious designations and authorities to confer, respectively, by the carriers of your employees, with interested in the dispute. These sentatives, for the purposes of this purpose, are provided in such manner as may be provided in their corporate organization, or by other means of collective action, without interference, implying overly organized or organization or designation of representatives by the company. The right of self-organization on the part of the employees of carriers of the organization, in the aforementioned act, which, of course, I am sure you do not deny since you have party to its formulation.
The fact that you recognize the right of way for your vehicle in collectively with you is shown by your jointly setting up an adjustment, and you adjust it under the act. Thus
