FOUR MEN KILLED AS MOB STORMS THEIR HOME MONROE, La., July 23—Posing as deputy sheriffs a mob of 200 whites surrounded four men in a house near Rayville Monday, and after riddling the house with bullets, shot the men dead. Two women who were with the four defenders, escaped before the shooting became general. Several white men in the attacking party were killed and wounded. Their identity has been kept secret, but it is known that Monroe Ferguson, white, a member of the mob, was killed. He was a prominent business man in Rayville. The battle resulted from attempts of so-called "deputy sheriffs" to beat up two women of our race because the women resented having naked white boys bathe in a swimming pool in sight of their home. The killed are Charles Kelly, Scott Belfield, William Gibbs and Cleo Collins. MAN WHO SHOT THROUGH CHURCH WINDOW KILLING 3. GET LIFE SENTENCE RISON, Ark.

The blast shattered the windows in almost every building between Grand Blvd. and Vinceennes Ave. The bombing, which was one of the most daring in the history of South Side bomb warfare, was committed while two plain clothes officers were watching the house to prevent violence. One of the watchers, Detective Sgt. James R. Tucker, who lives at 513 E. 37th St. was cut about the legs by flying glass. After being taken to the Provident Hospital where his wounds were dressed, Sgt. Tucker said that he had seen no one in the vicinity of the buildings for two hours preceding the outrage.

NAB 3 PROMINENT WHITES AS KU KLUX Waco, July 9.—Three prominent men, charged with "white capping" and carrying concealed weapons, were freed on bond today following the tar and feather party late yesterday at which K. Cummins, white man, was the victim. The three Waco men who were released on bonds were: Will Edmond, automobile; B. Hayes, Jr. said to be in the insurance business; O. D. Reed, automobile mechanic. Authorities announced this morning that at least one more arrest is expected. Cummins is positive of his identification of the men. He said he lifted the blindfold they tied around his face long to recognize as the older a prominent physician in Waco. County Attorney Frank b. Tiery declared today that a thorough investigation of the affair will be made and that other arrests may be made. Cummins was attacked previously by several masked men, after he had received a warning to leave Waco signed by the Ku Klux Klan.

TON, Mass, July 23, 1924. — something new manifested itself at Harvard on Tuesday, July 5th, at the Summer School. Monday, Miss Eunice Hudson of Anniston, Ala., and Miss Gailfrey Young, daughter of Press. Young of Tallahassee, Fla., were given their rooms the night before in Gore Hall but after breakfast on Tuesday found a note in their room directing them to see Director Murray, who requested them to find rooms outside with colored families as "it might be unpleasant to room with the white girls." They had a double suite in the Freshman Dormitory. They found the house of Mrs. E. T. Morris, wife of the president of the Boston Branch of the National Equal Rights League. Mrs. Morris told the girls to keep their rooms and she telephoned to Secretary Trotter. When he arrived he found Miss Roberts of Jacksonville, Fla., who had part of a double suite and had been sent to Mr. Murray and not even permitted to enter her room. Mr. Trotter escorted her to Gore Hall, with Miss Bessie Miller, and when the hostess gave a false excuse and said she was all allowed to enter Mr. Murray. Here she argued an argument of a full half hour between Director Murray, who was "avoiding unpleasantness for the colored girls as some Southern women were students," and Secretary Trotter, who insisted race discrimination was not the policy or spirit of Harvard University, and that the girls have their rooms and rights. Finally Trotter prevailed. Miss Roberts was escorted to a snigle suite in Standish Hall by Secretary Trotter and secured her room. The other girls were advised to stand pat and nothing more was heard of the color line. This was an important victory.

ACTS OF MASKED MOBS IN SOUTH STIRLAWMAKERS Legislatures And Judges Alarmed at Activities of Self Appointed Government BEAUMONT, Texas, July 23. Southern lawmakers are being stirred to action by the recent indiscriminate action of masked mobs, who have practically set up a government for themselves in Dixie. Pendulum Swings Backward Mob violence, which was originally invoked against the Black Man, has had its inevitable effect upon the public mind. For years it was allowed to exist unchecked, and no attempt was made to uphold the majesty of the law. Today the white man is almost as frequently a victim of mob violence as is the black. Texas Legislature to Investigate The. Texas legislature, which has convened in extra session, is expected to make an investigation of the epidemic of assaults upon citizens in various parts of the state by masked mobs, in which the victims are tarred and feathered and later released upon the streets.

Scott, white, a veteran of the world war marine service, was also tarred and feathered. Florida Grand Jury Acts MIAMI, Fla.-The Dade County Grand Jury has started an investigation of the tarring and feathering of the Rev, Phillip S.

The meeting was the first held by the commission. John J. Eagan, of Atlanta, was named chairman of the inter-racial commission, the vice-chairman of which will be selected from the churches. Returns From South America Marcus Garvey Provisional Presiden Of Africa Returns To America Where He Will Hold His World Wide Convention Of The Black Races. An International Holiday Will Be Set Aside And Held Sacred By His Many Followers. SOUTH SIDE BUSINESS EXPOSURES Article No. 3 203 EAST 31st STREET Following in the wake of the Franklin Trust and Savings Co., which employs no colored people and refuses to patronize their periodicals notwithstanding the fact that hundreds of thousands of their dollars are on deposit there, came the Pickford hat shop whose representatives openly boast that they get all the trade from colored people that they can handle and even though they fail to employ colored people or do business with their newspapers. Now comes one of the most brazen insults that any community has yet suffered. A restaurant which is controlled and operated right in the heart of the Southside, 203 East 31st St., refuses to serve colored people and have the nerve to come out and admit that they do not cater to them. This would not be surprising if this restaurant was lo- JACKSON AND ANDERSON BOTH TO HAVE WARD UNDER NEW PLAN Under the new fifty-ward plan which is to be submitted to the council Friday, it is understood that a new ward is to be created in such manner that the present Second ward will be split up to make the Second and Third wards with Ald.

U. S. Department of Agriculture Weather Bureau PRICE FIVE CENTS NO ATTEMPT IS MADE TO DENY HIM ENTRY Lands At New York And Prepares For Second 30 Day Convention NEW YORK CITY, July 23—In spite of rumors that he would be allowed to re-enter the United States, Marcus Garvey, the originator and leader of the Garvey movement, entered the port of New York Wednesday, and landed without molestation. Rumors Hinted Exclusion It has been freely rumored since Garvey left the United States that the American government, frowning upon his plans for unification of the Black races of the earth, would attempt to exclude him. It was even reported that the British government would be asked not to give him a passport to leave the West Indies, where he has been lately engaged in spreading the doctrines of the Garvey movement. Another 30-day Convention Garvey is now busy making plans for his second annual thirty-day convention of Negroes of the world, to be held in Liberty Hall, New York, August 1st to 31st. An international Negro Holiday has been set for August 31, which is expected to be celebrated with appropriate ceremonies wherever the Universal Negro Improvement Assn. has branches. Colors adopted last year were red, black, and green. They are expected to be much in evidence at the coming convention. WOMAN'S SCREAM IN PARK BUSHES PUZZLES POLICE South Park police are trying to solve the mystery of a woman's screams heard in Washington Park Friday night between Fifty-second and Fifty-third Streets. Upon hearing the screams South Park Policeman John T. Haab rushed into the bushes and was surprised to see a woman lying motionless on the ground. Standing over her was James Baylon, 30 years of age, 4228 Evans Avenue. At the sight of the cop, Baylon attempted flight, but was winged by a bullet in the shoulder. He then surrendered. In the meantime the woman had escaped through the bushes. Baylon, who was taken to the Washington Park Hospital, refused to give her name or account for her screaming. As the woman made no complaint to the policeman, authorities are puzzled as to the cause of her screams.

JACK JOHNSON IDOLIZED ON RETURN FROM LEAVENWORTH --- "GETTING BY" Easy to 'get by' these days, many say. But "getting by' is getting nowhere. That spirit never attained any worth while goal.... Work, save as you never did before. Get double value later. Capital $200,000.00 Surplus $20,000.00 Lincoln State Bank of Chicago Under State Government Supervision 3105 SOUTH STATE STREET 3% Paid on Savings Accounts THOUSANDS JAM STREETS TO SEE JACK ON RETURN Acclaimed by tumultuous crowds wherever it was thought he might be found, Jack Johnson received a howling welcome from 50,000 throats when he returned to Chicago last Thursday. Crowds began gathering around the 8th Regiment Armory at 9 a.m., where he was scheduled to make an appearance. Fully 5,000 met him at the Polk St. station, although his train arrived an hour before it was expected. 15,000 people jammed State St. between 35th and 36th Sts., where he was to appear at the Dreamland Cafe in the afternoon. Johnson drove directly from the railroad station to Dreamland Cafe, where a short informal reception was held for close friends. All the way out to the South Side traffic officers complained that Jack's party jammed the traffic as soon as it was learned that the famous ex-champ was passing. After leaving the Dreamland, Johnson's party went to the 8th Regiment Armory. Struggling to the entrance through a crowd of 20,000 admirers Johnson made a short talk, in which he issued an informal challenge to Jack Dempsey. Refers to White Wife In a speech during the day, Jack made a short reference to his white wife. He said: "I am being condemned by many members of my race because I married the woman I loved. If I had married any other woman, I would not have treated her right, because I would not have loved her." Big Reception at Dreamland Johnson was formally presented to the public in the afternoon at the Dreamland Cafe. He and his wife and her family, including her mother and brother, were the cynosure of all eyes, seated at a long table directly under the handstand. Moving pictures were taken of the entire event. Late in the afternoon the party went to the home of Mrs. Jennie Rhodes Johnson's sister, on Grand Blvd. where another reception was held Traffic in the boulevard was completely choked up by the cheering thousands and hundreds of automobiles lined the curb. Seen In Workout Saturday afternoon the public was given the first opportunity to see him work out. Fully a thousand men with a sprinkling of wonlen gathered in the Dreamland to compare him with the Johnson of old. Clad in maroon jersey trunks he presented a magnificent appearance. His sinewy muscles rippled under a smooth and velvety skin. As he punched viciously at the bag it was seen that he had lost none of his driving power. His mighty blows splintered the floor supporting the stand for the punching bag. His time was measured perfectly. His eye was accurate; he lost no blows. He could punish the bag with his left equally as much as with his right. After twenty minutes of bag punching, he stopped, and it was remarked that he was not blowing. Toys With Boxers Jack then took on two local boxers for a short workout. It was apparent that he was indulgently toying with them. "Like a cat playing with a mouse," remarked one of the lady fans. Although no test of his ability, the fans were able to get some idea of Johnson's wonderful defensive ability, HONEY BAKERY ON LUNCH TIME NEW ORLEANS PREPARES FOR BAPTIST MEETING NEW ORLEANS, La., July 23.—The people of New Orleans have united as never before to make the coming session of the National Baptist Convention a great success. Dr. J. L. Burrell is chairman of the General Committee and he is optimistic. Rev. Charles W. Brooks, chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, reported last week that he had the co-operation of the Association of Commerce and had no scruples as to the early completion of all plans. Dr. Jones, of Evanston, Ill., was a guest at the Second Baptist Church, of which Dr. A. Hubbs is pastor. On last Sunday Dr. Jones addressed a large mass meeting in the interest of the convention. Many prominent ministers were present. All were unanimous in their efforts to accord a welcome to the convention. Dr. Jones said: "A new epoch must be made in the life of constructive work. To teach and enlist must be emphasized, but kingdom building must none the less occupy our attention." It is predicted that the twelve thousand dollars owed on the National Baptist Theological Training School in Nashville will be entirely wiped out at the New Orleans session. Information had here today was to the effect that Dr. Boston J., Prince of Chicago, chairman of the Railroad Commission, had arranged for the L. Illinois, Indiana, Tennessee, and Kentucky delegation to travel by special train over the L. & N. affording them an opportunity to view the entire gulf coast. and his famous clinches. Time after time he held his opponents helpless, and released them at his will. Once or twice he started a blow that would have ended in a knockout if it had landed on his opponent's body, but each time he checked his fist with a smile. After twenty-nine minutes of continuous boxing he brought the workout to a close, and it was remarked that his breathing was still normal. Johnson will leave the city some time Wednesday or Thursday for New York, where he has an engagement Friday night. CONGREGATIONAL MEET HELD ON EQUALITY BASIS By Dr. H. H.

Practically all founts charge 17 cents for a soda still. Coca Cola which sells for 6 cents now in the loop and in other parts of the city still costs from 8 to 10 cents at South Side founts. Only a meager handful have cut the price to 6 cents. A little discrimination on the part of buyers would quickly bring profiteering proprietors to their senses. Here is what Russell J. Poole, city high cost expert, says about soda prices: Starting with soda water, Mr. Poole says one pound of carbonic acid gas mixed with water provides charged water for 320 sodas and the cost item becomes negligible. Next, the syrup. Using crushed strawberries as the highest priced syrup dispensed, he says twenty pounds of sugar and two gallons of water equal three gallons of simple syrup. Add a gallon of concentrated syrup and the cost for four gallons is $4.40. The average amount to a customer is two ounces. Therefore this item is from 4 to 4½ cents. Ice cream follows. The average place uses a No. 10 measure, which provides sixteen portions to a quart. Ice cream costs dispensers between 90 cents and $1.30 a gallon. The amount in a soda or sundae costs 2½ cents, so the total cost of a soda is 0% to 7 cents, Mr. Poole said. "Ten cents would allow more than 30 per cent return." The whipped cream "alibi" for higher priced drinks, is called a "big joke." "Whipping cream costs between 65 and 80 cents a quart, but most dispensers use chemicals that cause plain milk to whip like cream." Mr. Poole asserts, "some use marshmallow whip, or some other name that means it will go twice as far. A dab of the mixture costs less than a cent and swell the contents in the glass, and the customer gets a smaller drink." "Home Made" Varieties So-called home made ice cream is just as cheaply prepared as the manufactured varieties, he said. He submitted a formula showing ten gallons of the best grade made from six gallons of 18 per cent cream; eight pounds of sugar; three to four ounces vanilla and three to four ounces of gelatin.

Judge Robert F. Raymond, presiding justice at the term of Superior Court in this city, caused a profound sensation when after declaring that the colored race in the North was not given even as much chance as in the South, he formally revoked the lower court sentence of Roy B. Scott, a youth of this city, six months in the House of Correction, and placed him on probation. After delivering a brief speech, he was escorted to casion, he called Scott to the bench, clasped his hand warmly and urged him to go forth and bravely face the battle of life. Guilty of Larceny Scott was found guilty of the larceny of a watch and chain from a man in Brockton several weeks ago and was given a six months' sentence in the police court. He appealed. Concurring with his counsel, Judge H. C. Thorndike, Deputy District Attorney George E. Adams and Probation Officer A. F. Kirkby, stated that they were not averse to probation, and then Judge Raymond took a hand. "It is not often that I allow myself to speak on this subject, particularly in such a place as this," he began. "Yet I cannot refrain from saying a few words incidental to this case. To my mind the black race has not had a fair chance. In fact, it has not been afforded; such a chance here in the North as in the South. Probably for just this same reason as the case of this young man before me. I can easily see where a black man could become desperate by the feeling that everybody is against him and his race and take the downward step. "Duty to Help Black Men" "But here in New England there is a fundamental principle that we help our black men. It is our duty to help them. We are all in the same boat, the black-faced man and the white man; we're both pulling in the same boat and should do our part. This is Americanism. This youth here is going to be given an opportunity to make good. I can assure him he will be given every assistance. "I want you to show the manhood that is in you," he continued, addressing Scott. "If you go to the devil, you will drag that little wife and child of yours down with you. Don't do it. Show me that my confidence has not been misplaced and that you can win that place in the community that you are capable of winning." 3 SLOW PROGRESS MADE IN TRIAL OF TULSA CHIEF TULSA, Okla, July 23.—After an eight hour session twice halted by bitter argument between attorneys for the defense and the prosecution, the third day of the trial of John A. Gustafson, suspended chief of police, for alleged inefficiency and neglect of duty in connection with the recent race riots, was adjourned until Thursday morning at 9 o'clock with little progress made. Court officials now believe that the case will occupy the greater part of next week. Five Witnesses Heard Five witnesses were placed on the stand by the prosecution, their testimony centering almost entirely upon the race riots. Defense attorneys declared that no damage had been done to their case by evidence introduced. Counsel for the defense called a halt in the trial about 11:30 o'clock in the morning and started a discussion on a legal question which extended until 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon. Despite the fact that the state introduced its first testimony and five witnesses had testified before court adjourned at 5 o'clock, the general opinion of attorneys present during the day was that the state has so far failed to produce any evidence of damaging nature. All testimony produced so far has dealt with the last count of the accusation, that accusing the chief of neglecting to do his duty on the night of the riot. Two of the witnesses were practicing attorneys, both of whom were present at the court house on the night of the riot, one a retired attorney, another a colored deputy sheriff and the one a former United States marshal. It was, when Attorney General Freelelling asked Luther James, witness, if he saw Chief Gustafson or any of his men disarm or attempt to disarm, any of the Negroes, that the defense interposed and the trial was halted by the ensuing arguments. Scott's eyes never left those of the court as Judge Raymond waxed eloquent. Then he bade him step to the bench. Crossing over to the entrance of the bench, Judge Raymond conversed with Scott in low tones for a moment, and then shook his hand warmly as he sent him forth.

Editors of *The American Whig* Dear Sir—I noticed in the issue of your publication of the 9th of July a write-up from this place which stated that the showing of the "Clausmen" at some of the theaters here a few weeks ago was stopped as a result of the protests and efforts of certain clubs, churches and individuals. My object in this communication is to direct attention to the fact that the prevention of the above-mentioned show here was due to the singular efforts of Mr. John H. Taylor, a race man here of prominence, who boldly informed Hon. Matthew Brady, district attorney, that such show would result in serious trouble, and the district attorney took the same position and warned the managements of the theaters in effect of the bad policy of such show and its attending evils. I offer these lines in correction of the write-ups mentioned, because of my desire to see credit given the one to whom it is due. Yours for the Race, SYLVESTER ISONBERG. Do You Approve of the "Whip?"

Membership 71,000 --- OI NOSEY WAS strolling on the Boulevard last Sunday night taking in all of the "sights" which appeared on the neutral ground. He noticed two gentlemen who live near 36th and Prairie avenue approach two young ladies who were seated on the grass. They raised their hats and started off with the usual "Hello Cutie" stuff and were about to sit down when a brindled bull pup arose and walked from behind one of the girls. She yelled, "Go get 'em." The little pup started out and so did the would-be gentleman. It was a pretty chase and the pup would have won not the little girl yelled for him to return. The gentleman; much winded from their exertions, rested their weary bodies against the wall, while the girls, spectators, Nosey and the dog all laughed. This is a warning to all "mashers"—look out for the dog! was in his sox feet and who was swearing better than any sailor ever dared to swear. He would not tell Nosey what was the matter or why he was in his sox feet. Nosey went into the alley from which the little man had just emerged and followed his track- until they led him to a shed in the rear of a residence. Nosey saw the shoes on the shed and when he tried to remove them saw that they were stuck in the tar which had become soft in the sun. A bottle whizzed past Nosey's car and a voice tried, "I told you moved to the cabin, didn't? Then another bottle. Nosey moved when he found out that the little man had been so unpopular in the neighborhood and smiled when he was in safety at the picture the little man must have been trying to get his feet out of his shoes and dodging bottles at the same time. SOME PEOPLE get used to things, quickly. Nosky saw one of the "old guard" walking along Wash Avenue and coming up from the rear shapped him on the back by way of greeting. The old man's hands flew up in the air and reminded above his head, "Take what's left, fellows, and let me go home in peace." Nosky pulled his arms down and convinced him that he was not a hold-up man. The old gent had been held up one that night and had taken a "nip" to steady his nerves and everything looked like a burglar to him. Nosky saw that he got home to prevent him from standing all night in one spot with his hands held above his head. The old man knows the safe way to meet the hold-up men anyway. EVERY OLD SAYING does not always work out. Nosey has heard girls say that they would rather be an old man's darling than a young man's slave, but he ran into a young girl at one of the cabarets who had become an old man's slave and she was about tired of it but the old man had such young ideas that he could not get away from his slavery. Considering that the old man had a family and was known as "nice old man" that the girl was one of who wild and woolly vamps it makes you think that those rules can go wrong sometimes. This exception may cause some old men to get out of line but Nosey wishes it understood that he will take no blame for the disasters which might befall the old men who would be slaves masters. YOU SHOULD ALWAYS look around for the husband when you talk to a man's wife. Nosey was standing at the corner of 35th and Indiana Avenue looking at a tall fat lady who was accompanied by a short thin man. He was standing behind her when a smart looking young man came up and said, "Hello, Bertha, where is that little fish of a husband of yous?" She winked and blinked at the young man but he just went on calling names and the little husband grew taller and taller until he looked to Nosey as tall as the young man. The young man finally tumbled to the tragic signs of the wife and beat a hasty retreat before the husband could get around his massive wife. And then the fun began. Nosey departed as he has witnessed too many of those unequal debates between man and wife and knew what would finally happen to the little man. You know too.

(Nick) Nichols and Crawford Williams are the proprietors, both being very popular young men. Mr. Nichols was formerly manager of the Entertainer's Cafe and is one of the old school of Chicago who knows how to do things. When out that way it will be doing you good to drop in. The character of the place is excellent and a visit will not be regretted. The Dreamland Bill Bottoms is all smiles nowadays from the fact that Jack Johnson is packing the Dreamland.

Young People's Musicale The Music Lovers of Chicago are manifesting a great deal of interest in the announcement of the Musicale arranged by the Young People's Society at the Institutional Church on Thursday night, July 21, 1921. Jems A. Lillard, the Artist presented by the Society is making an appearance for the first time on the South Side. His posters are frequently seen on the West Side in the largest Auditoriums and Concert Halls among the Jews and for the first time grace the windows of our section. Those who have been fortunate enough to receive admission to the various concerts given by Soviet Russian Societies in the Loop and further West in Chicago delightfully endorse his presentation among his own race at this time, for well do they remember the enthusiasm demonstrated by the Jews who heavily applauded and gave their Yiddish Yells whenever he entered the stage. Those who peruse the Music Magazines published by the Jewish press are constantly reminded of their impression of him by their freely printed comments.

A meeting of this group last Sunday was attended by 137 men and women representing, fifteen different states. One would have to go a long way to find a more seriously minded body than these men and women who give up their vacation time each summer in order that the education of the Negro youth shall not suffer through lack of experienced leadership.

Although outweighed by several pounds, George Robinson, the Colored contender for the middleweight crown now held by Johnny Wilson, Italian-American, jumped in and gave the champ an argument, and it looked for a time that the Colored lad would snatch the coveted prize. Robinson is generally given credit of besting Wilson upon two former occasions and only for the poundage packed by the champ this time, giving him a decided advantage over the Colored battler, in the opinion of many Robinson would have downed Wilson. As it was, the champion was given the edge in the majority of the rounds, also the verdict. The arena was packed to suffocation and it is estimated that more than 5,000 were turned away. Mech from all walks of life watched the go and quite a sprinkling of women mixed in the large crowd. Robinson weighed 161½ pounds, that being 3½ over the limit of 158. The Wilson followers took the precaution to have the title eliminated from the outcome. However, Wilson refused to weigh but after a long delay, in which Robinson threatened to leave the ring unless Wilson weighed in, it was learned the Italian weighed, according to the word of his manager, in the neighborhood of 162 pounds. Wilson's name has been frequently mentioned in connection with the selection of an opponent for Georges Carpentier here of late, and it is probable that he has advanced in size to where he is commonly conceded to be a light-heavy. At any rate the opinion prevails that Robinson is the foremost aspirant for the middleweight title. It is practically a settled fact that Wilson cannot make the limit of 158 pounds and be strong. The fight by rounds First Round—Robinson landed left jab to the face, Wilson countering with left hook to stomach. Wilson shot a right to the head and in the clinch banged right to ribs. Robinson caught Wilson with a right to jaw that almost drove him through the ropes. Robinson got over a couple of more rights to the head, Wilson countering with left to body. Wilson was a bit dazed going to his corner. It was Robinson's round. Round 2—Wilson blocked a couple of rights to the jaw and countered on the stomach with the left. Wilson shot a couple of more lefts to the stomach. When Robinson again tried with a right Wilson sent left to body. Wilson landed a wicked left hook on Robinson's stomach.

Wilson drove left to stomach, right to head and left to body, then a left hook to jaw. Wilson sent more lefts to the stomach, Robinson staggering. The round closed with Wilson driving another left hook to Robinson's stomach. Wilson's round. Round 5—In the clinch Wilson banged on kidney and Wilson landed many more dips in the stomach and cried Robinson on the heels and cried with the right. In the clinches Robinson landed rights on face, but the blows appeared weak. The body punches he had been getting began to show their effect on Robinson. It was Wilson's round. Round 6—Wilson kept shooting left to Robinson's stomach and head, landing also rights to the jaw. In the clinches, Robinson landed rights to the face. Wilson backed into a corner and Robinson landed another right to head. Wilson's round. Round 7—Wilson landed left on face. In the clinches both did some punching on body.

BUCKEYES ANNEX OPENING BATTLE Hampton Does the Pitching for Columbus, Winning by a Count of 4 to 1 COLUMBUS, O., July 16—Columbus Buckeyes took the first of a five-game series from Chicago Giants before 500 fans at Neil Park. Each team gathered 10 hits, but those landed by Buckeyes came at opportune moments and the count ended 4 to 1. To the Columbus club recently came Pitcher Columbus from the Black Crackers of Mt. Vernon, Ga. He took his first whirl on the mound for the Buckeyes yesterday and his style of hurling stamps him as a worthy member of the local aggregation. Only two hits gathered off Hampton were for extra bases and came in the form of triples by Beckwath and Green in the sixth inning. In that frame the Giants made their only tally. Percy Bird, who did the hurling for the visitors, was unsteady at times. On many occasions, with Buckeyes on bases, he tightened and saw Buckeyes left stranded on the paths. The game was a scrappy affair throughout. Many brilliant plays were staged and to name an individual star would be an impossibility. With the Chicago team is Beckwith rated as one of the hardest-hitting colored men in the game.

J., July 11—Rojo, the Bacharach Giants' backstop star, spiked the home plate for the run that enabled the Atlantic City aggregation to win from the Parkersburg iron Company in the tenth round, score 2-1. The game was a great heaving duel between "Hooks" Mitchell and Herb Steen. Both twirlers had plenty of "stuff" on the ball and kept the hits well scattered. Steen allowed but five bingles, no two in one frame; while Mitchell was found for a half dozen. Parkersburg drew first blood in the second session. Harkness singled to left and when Shively fumbled the sphere for a moment the base-runner took a chance and headed for second, and was at the Keystone bag. Irving then doubled to left and Harkness raced home. This one tall looked like a million dollars. Parkersburg ...0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1—Bacharach Gts 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 2—Umpires—jameson and Dorgan.

MONARCHS INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 17.—The A B C's won a double header from the Kansas City Monarchs yesterday, 7 to 4 and 1 to 0, Johnson in the first and Jeffries in the second hurling a fine brand of ball. Johnson was given rather indifferent support in the opener and should have had a shutout. The A B C's got busy in the seventh inning of the initial game and with a brace of tallies sewed the game up. The second game, a seven-inning game, was much better from a fielding standpoint, several good stops and catches featuring. No Monarch got farther than second off Jeffries in this game. Ben Taylor's triple and homer furnished the batting feature. Clark, ss Ab H O A Wood, lf 4 1 2 0 Kenyon, cf 4 2 0 1 B.

Opinions Of Whip Readers THE CHICAGO WHIP LD OF DETHRONI SUNDAY EIGHTH REGIMENT DAY AT SCHORLING PARK The annual field day of the Eighth Regiment will be pulled this Sunday, July 24. at American Giants field of baseball endearor, and needless to argue, the athletic arena will be packed and jammed. The largest assemblage ever housed by this playing arena was led there by the Eighth Regiment, officers, staff and band. This year the parade is expected to eclipse any other previous effort and several thousand chairs have been commandeered for the accommodation of the soldier boys after they have marched around the field and completed their maneuvers. The Baseball Game In order to satisfy the cravings of the South Side populace for a team that can make the chesty Fosterites step about and show the full limit of their power, the Singers, of South Bend, Ind, one of the leading clubs of the Industrial League, has been secured as the attraction. This club represents the Singer Manufacturing Company in the league and is dubbed one, if not the best, in the Industrial organization. The Singers have tabbed wins over Bellois, Simmons Tractors, Nash Motors and other aggregations whose arguments with the Foster crew are all against the dark champs. The Singers have kicked the strong Zanesville, O., team, also the Staleys, the gang that gave the Americans such a tough battle last week. As this team is surrounded with a world of class as hitters and ashy fielders, Rube considers it a worthy aggregation for a complete tryout of his new hurling marvel, "Leffy" Streeter, recently acquired from the great Atlanta Crackers team. Get out to the park early as the great regiment parade will sweep thousands through the gate, and if you cannot stand the jab, be there early. MAGNETS BEATEN 11-2 The American Giants encountered but little opposition from the Magnetts last at Schollar school, the former leaguers being unable to stop the hitting of the Foster crew who are right on edge these days for any sort of going that shows. Streeter, the Giants new slabman, who comes here from the Atlanta Cracker team, pitched with ease and composure and found it unnecessary to unbuckle his real form. He will probably be used Sunday against the Singer club.

Should Jack Be To Sporting Opinions Of W Jack Johnson Should Not Be Readmitted Into the Sporting World (By Edward Todd Rogers) (By Edward Ted Rogers) Why give him another chance when he has proven himself worthy? Not because of his relations with white women, because he has the same right with them as the white man he has with the colored women which if is not given him in some parts of this country he takes by force or threats. Although we do not hold this against him, the white man does and uses that as an excuse for not giving another Negro a chance at the title. We all know, or at least we believe, that Jack laid down to Jess at Havana, Cuba. We also believe from reports that he was promised his freedom and several thousand dollars if he did lay down, which I believe he did, neither of which did he get according to reports supposed to have came from him. Now Jack knew that. A man was after him who would get him if he stayed on earth and to buy him off was next to impossible, as had been --- NEW INTEREST AROUSED IN LEAGUE RACE The acquisition of eight men formerly of the great Atlanta Crackers team, the crew who shut the Fosterites out last winter, has put the baseball bugs to buzzing these days. The Columbus club, considered down and out in the league race, has perked up, having grabbed the whole bunch of southerners, and the new material has caused the Buckeyes' chances to take on a much brighter hue. Last week the Ohio team took the strong Detroit Stars down the line for four straight defences, kicking the Michigan men out of first place and putting the crew to the top, temporarily, at least. However, if St. Louis slams the Detroiters and the American Giants trounce the Cubans at Cincinnati, the Chicago team will establish a hold on first place that will be near a permanent one. St. Louis and Kansas City are fighting hard for the possession of third place honors, with the Indianapolis club and Cubans directly behind them coming fast. The series this week may cause a general shift in positions, and when the final of the week is in it may show that some dark horse has the inside track for the big honors. The men secured for Columbus are: O'Neil, catcher; Davis, third base; Gistentaner, pitcher; Harris pitcher; Hampton, pitcher; Smith outfielder; Wesley, outfielder. Detroit grabbed Ambrois Reed, an outfielder. The Chicago Giants snatched two good pitchers in Henderson and Miller, the latter from Kansas City TREADWELL GIVES UP 3 HITS AND GIANTS WIN TREADWELL GIVES UP 3 HITS AND GIANTS WIN ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., July 14—Harold Treadwell was in top-notch form and it was through his masterful hurling that the Bacharach Giants sent the Pennsylvania Red Caps back to New York with a shutout tucked under their belts. The resort aggregation finished in front of the count reading 6-0. The metropolis team collected but three scattered bingles, no two in one session. In the first three innings the New Yorkers were unable to knock the ball out of the infield and not a single visiting player reached first base. The Bacharach Giants' outfielders had little to do during the afternoon in the outer garden as only three balls went out of the infield. One of which was seven that inflicted one of which was the sensational running catch of Johnny Pugh retired Crossen. Seven members of the Red Caps were retired via the strikeout route. P. R. R.

Jack knew these things and the very thoughts of him stepping in that ring to lay down is the thing that I hold against him. Why didn't he be do Jess Willard as he done Tom Burns. He followed Burns all over the country to get a fight and the only way he got one was through a promise to lay down, which he kept until after they shook hands in the ring, then Jack told him, "Win if you can, because I am going to fight." He fought and you know the result, and if he had fought Willard and then came back and took the medicine that he has just finished, he, today, would be the undisputed champion of the world. Now, let him stay out of the game and give Harry Wills a chance which is doubtful if he will ever get because Dempsey, although the world's best white fighter, will not trust Iron Mike his mighty right in a fight with a Negro who also has an Iron Mike and Iron Pat, too, besides an iron jaw.

J., July 12—Parkesburg Iron Company came back strong yesterday afternoon and turned tables on the Bacharach Giants in a hotly contested game at the Inlet Park, score 4-3. The Atlantic City team won from the Picos on Monday in the tenth inning. In the third frame the invaders broke the ice and sent two runners across the plate for a pair of tallies. Herb Steewen opened the round with a hot one through Pettus. Peploski sacrificed; Lundy jugged Baldwin's grounder and the latter was safe at first base. Silknetter then lifted a long sacrifice fly to center field and Steen romped home. Pasquerella doubled to left and Ted Baldwin scored.

Standing of Clubs, Division A BUCKS ARE GIVEN DOUBLE TRIMMING BY PLUCKY GIANTS Only Three Hits Allowed by Visiting Hurler in Opener. Scores 6-1, 7-4 COLUMBUS, O., July 17—Chicago Giants took a pair of ball games from Columbus Buckeyes yesterday, the first ending 6 to 1 and the second battle, which went to 10 innings, winding up by a 7 to 4 count. The opening game was a beauty and one of the best pitchers of the colored league is John Taylor of the Giants. Buckeyes were able to touch him for only three hits, two landed by Outfielder Brown. His first was a triple and the second bingle going for one base. Davis singled the other Buckeye hit. Until the eighth inning started Pitcher Gisentaner of the Buckeyes had allowed only two hits and he pitched to 23 batters. But after he hit Bachman in the eighth he was gone and Giants scored three runs and then three more tallies in the final frame. Seven hits were garnered by the Giants. The second game was loosely played. Buckeyes were outfitted with a four-run lead and they kept it until the seventh inning when the visitors scored twice. The count was tied in the ninth by' the Giants and three runs were made by the visitors in the tenth. More than 2200 fans turned out for the double attraction which packed full of fast baseball. # Chicago B R H O A Hawkins, rf 4 0 1 0 Jeffries, cf 3 0 0 4 0 Jonnings, lf 3 0 1 0 0 Bockwith, ss 4 1 1 0 3 Green, 3b 3 1 0 0 3 Bachmann, 2b 3 2 1 0 0 Ray, c 4 1 3 3 0 Byrd, 1b 3 1 1 13 1 Taylor, p 3 0 0 0 3 30 6 7 27 12 # Columbus B R H O A Brown, rf 4 0 2 1 0 Britt, cf 4 0 2 0 2 Lloyd, ss 3 1 0 2 1 Hudspeth, 1b 3 0 13 0 Thomas, 2b 4 0 0 3 5 Smith, lf 4 0 0 3 2 Davis, 3b 4 0 1 0 0 O'Neil, c 3 0 0 4 0 'Lane 1 0 0 0 0 Gisantner, p 3 0 0 0 4 # Chicago B R H O A Hawkins, rf 5 0 1 7 0 Jeffries, cf 5 1 2 2 0 Jennings, lf 4 2 1 2 0 Beckwith, ss 5 1 0 1 1 Green, 3b 5 1 1 1 Bachman, 5b 5 2 3 4 Ray, c 5 0 1 4 1 Byrd, 1b 2 0 1 1 0 Winson, rf 2 0 1 1 0 Luther, p 4 0 2 0 3 41 7 13 30 14 # Columbus B R H O A Brown, rf 4 2 1 1 0 Britt, cf 5 0 1 1 0 Lloyd, ss 5 0 1 2 0 Hudspeth, 1b 5 0 1 1 0 Thomas, 2b 3 0 1 3 4 Smith, lf 5 0 1 2 0 Davis, 3b 5 0 1 2 0 Ferguson, c 4 0 0 1 1 Lange, p 1 0 0 0 0 Wilson, p 1 0 0 1 1 Roberts, p 0 0 0 0 0 37 4 4 30 12 Chicago ..... 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 2 3-7 Columbus ..... 2 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 4-4 Errors—Jefries, Baehman, Byrd, Luther, 2; Hudspeth, Wilson.

WITH THE CHURCH LEAGUERS Much interest centers in the league of church teams and large crowds can be found assembled at Washington park each Saturday watching the church leaguers form in play. Last Saturday a large crowd witnessed the contest between St. Monica and Bethesda, in which the Monicas came from behind and won, 9 to 4. A batting rally in the eighth, coupled by a brace of errors by Bethesda players, enabled the Monicas to put over the win. Next Saturday the formidable St. Marys will lock horns with the St. Monica, the latter leading Division B with a percentage of .818, having won nine games and lost two. The score by innings: St. Monica ..... 0 0 0 1 0 3 0 5 *-9 Bethesda ..... 0 0 3 0 0 0 0 0 1-4 Batteries: St. Monicas—Swain and Priestly; Bethesda—Peoples and McCree and King.

WITH DUE REGARD FOR RIGHT, WITH PURITY OF MOTIVE IN OUR EXPRESSION, WITH CONSCIENTIOUS COMPASSION FOR STRICKEN HUMANITY, WITH UNSTINTED CREDIT TO THOSE WHO MERIT, WITH TRUTH AS OUR GUIDE POST AND LOVE AS OUR INSPIRATION, WE HAVE COMMITTED OURSELVES TO THE WORLD OF JOURNALISM. WE HAVE DEDICATED OURSELVES TO PUBLIC SERVICE. RACIAL DEATH Some little alarm has been evident of late because of the statistics of the recent census which set out the proposition that the death rate is increasing among black people of America and at the same time the birth rate has fallen off to an appreciable extent. As would be expected these unreliable statistics have been gobbled up by the Caucasians and many have gleefully exclaimed that the black people would soon die out and thus the race problem would come to an impromptu adjournment. It would be a satisfactory culmination of the white man's tyranny to have the black man swept from the face of the globe. The laws of nature, however, are inexorable and neither the whims, the fancies, nor the evil desires of the white man will cause them to change. The black man's death will not adjourn race hate, prejudice nor even the immediate problem; and furthermore, the black race is not going to die out. The white man cannot afford it. Some claim that the ravages of tuberculosis are making terrible inroads upon the dark folk. This dread disease is so highly contagious that even the hardihood of the white man cannot withstand it and the marked increase in the death of black people will show a relative increase among whites. If it continues, health and sanitation bureaus of America will be forced to relieve the terrible conditions which exist in "black belts" in order to protect the white neighborhoods which adjoin. The white people of America, even if they are less susceptible to the "white plague" than the black, will check the contagion in order to save themselves. Where an epidemic of small-pox rages, they do not vaccinate little black boys and girls for purely humanitarian purposes—they seek to insure protection to white America; and so the story runs. From an economic standpoint under the present capitalistic system the wisdom of Solomon is not needed to prophecy that the black man will not be pitched into discard and death. America's greatest industry is cotton, and Irish and other foreign labor has not proven satisfactory to the great cotton kings. The black man's labor has produced the enormous profits for his white master, sometimes dignifiedly called employer. They don't let the goose die which lays the golden eggs, not in America. When the capitalistic system begins to wane and the cotton industry is no longer profitable for the white man alone then they might consider and deliberate over the passing of the black man. That time seems far distant. The black man is learning, in the meantime, how to take care of himself. His experience in slavery taught him chicanery and shrewdness and with these qualities coupled with education he will see to it that his specie does not become extinct. The growing interest in commercial development, the departure from superstition and ignorance proves that health and sanitation is not entirely foreign to this much maligned and abused people. If those who draw their figures from the census-takers would stop to think how crude and careless their methods were they would not waste their time and energy in drawing such happy conclusions. Those who counted the black people either inadvertently or intentionally fail to register at least one-fifth. If a careful investigator would ask each black man he met if the census-takers counted his family, he would end a day's work with the compelling worry left that America was growing black. Racial death is just as far from the black man as it is from the white. The white man should not expect nature to aid him in his villiany. A resolution to recognize his brother would better benefit him. Break Up The Property Gangs If the people of Chicago are desirous of having the charters of the Kenwood and Hyde Park Property Owners Association and the Grand Boulevard Property Owners Protective League revoked, a little determination and co-operation can get the little job done. In a recent case it was brought out that all of the elements of criminal conspiracy were present to deny a prominent citizen of the black race the right to acquire property. This is a crime and the private citizens of the State of Illinois may join in quo warranto proceedings and deprive them of their right to function under state authority. The lawyers stand ready and willing to perform. What is the pleasure of the people? South Side Shylocks. Shakespeare's story is not the only place where Shylocks can be found. Thousands of them inhabit Chicago and live on the South Side. Yet we would hardly expect to find Black Shylocks exacting their measly pound of human flesh from their own people but that is a dismal fact which none can deny. The Black Shylocks are mainly engaged in the real-estate business. They auction houses and flats to the highest bidders. They secure property from white owners thru the subterfuge of promising to raise the rents fifty per cent when the white tenants are replaced with black people. Some Shylocks have written letters to property owners and specifically state that they would force black people to pay seventy five dollars for flats which white people were renting for fifty. If the names of these grafters and blood suckers are exposed as they will be, no "Portia" will be needed to convict them. --- THE CHICAGO WHIP Health Hints Eighth Regiment Whereas: God in his infinite wisdom has seen fit to take unto Himself, Mrs. Clara Williams, beloved wife of 1st Lieut. Albert Williams, this regiment, we the officers of the 8th Inf. 811 N. G. are desirous of expressing to our brother officer our deepest sympathy in his hour of bereavement. "Some Wild Oats," a motion picture that is being shown at one of the loop theaters is attracting considerable attention from the public. This picture is indorsed by various public health officials as being another plan whereby the public may be informed concerning the effect of venereal diseases, or as they are sometimes called, social diseases, upon society. A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I. J. K. L. M. N. O. P. Q. R. S. T. U. V. W. X. Y. Z. The commanding officer, Colonel Otis B. Duncan, has been in the city for the past two weeks preparing the regiment for Federalization. He announces at this time, that all in his power has been done and all arrangements have been made and it now rests with the officers and enlisted men to be ready when the order arrives which is expected in the next ten days. The advantages derived are too numerous to mention, for men who desire to join the regiment. A few vacancies are left in the regiment and those wishing to enlist may call on Tuesday, Wednesdays and Thursdays on each week at 8:00, P.M. Goods." I consider the former a more modern picture than the latter, or at least it shows that the modern generation follows the advice of the family physician more conscientiously than did those of former times and also the modern generation is not so easily induced to quackery and the quack. For example, the young man in "Some Wild Oats" after being infected with syphilis and after being assured that he had the disease, put himself under the care of his physician and followed his orders. The result of this was that in proper time the young man's blood test was taken and the Wassermann was negative. He was pronounced cured by his physician and allowed to marry. The children that they will bring into the world will be healthy and free from any trace of inherited syphilis. In "Damaged Goods" the young man infected with syphilis was seeking a quick cure and not a thorough cure. His medical advisor impressed upon his mind that he could not marry before a certain date. The young man became over-anxious and sought the advice of a quack who took his money and told him he could marry in a short time. This man married before he was thoroughly cured and as a result of this grave mistake his wife bore a child with inherited syphilis. The annual encampment of the regiment will be held at Springfield, Ill. from Sept. 3 to Sept. 17, inclusive. Captain R. A. J. Shaw, in addition to his other duties has been detailed as Plans, Training and Intelligence Officer. In response to an invitation from Mr. Andrew (Rube) Foster, manager of the American Giants baseball team, the regiment will assemble at the armory at 11:00 A. M. Sunday, July 24, 1921. The march enroute will be as follows: Giles Ave. to 31st St. to Prairie Ave. to 30th St. to State St. to 39th St. to the return march will be 39th St. LaSalle St. to 37th St. to Giles Ave. to Armory. The ceremony of escort to the Colors will be gone through Moving pictures of the occasion will be made at the park. The following promotions have been made in Company "H" commanded by Captain Anderson F. Pitts. To be Corporals: Privates Earl J. Wheeler, Louis Serralis, Clarence H. Blackmoore, Fred Johnson and Leo Miller. 1st Lieut. Louis C. Washington has been assigned as Adjutant of 1st Battalion—vice, 1st Lieut. Winfield C. Mitchell, transferred to Company "G." The regular monthly meeting of the Louise D. Marshall Auxiliary to the 8th Battalion meet in the commanding officer's parlor. Thursday, 10b, 28, 1921 at 8:00 P. M. Properly informing the public concerning the importance of social diseases, and especially syphilis, is indeed a great problem. There are so many times that syphilis is overlooked both by patient and physician, in the early stages, and as a result of this oversight many individuals go into the third stage and suffer the consequences of neglected treatment. Syphilis, in the later stages, shows up in the form of severe glands, open sores, severe neurglical pains, headaches, which are more severe at night, gummatous conditions of various organs of the body, also inflammation of the brain and spinal cord. In fact there is no organ in the human body that the germ of syphilis does not attack. Forty per cent of the cases of insanity can be traced to neglected syphilis. Matthew R. Johnson Publicity Officer Lient St 8th Int 1234567890 Form Association of Trade and Commerce NEW YORK CITY, July 23.—The local Association of Trade and Commerce opened its new $30,000 club house on June 10th, with befitting ceremonies. The club house is modern in all of its appointments and is said to be the finest in the country. This organization is composed of over 400 business and professional men. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures, In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Fails. Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures. In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils. It meets in Atlanta, Ga., this year, the "great National Negro Business League." This is its twenty-sixth year of existence and yet we cannot consciously point to a single achievement that has been wrought through and under its auspices. The president, Major Mcton, states that this league is purely for inspirational purposes. How it inspires anybody is a puzzle. The only National Business League that the black people of America can boast of cannot point to anything of value that it has contributed. The problems of competition, barter and trade, supply and demand, have never been considered. All of the "big Negroes" will pose in Atlanta and we little fellows are expected to receive inspiration only. For shame. Chicago's black citizens gave Jack Johnson a greater reception in Chicago last week than has ever been paid to a member of his race. No such ovations have been paid to Booker Washington, W. E. B. Du Bois or any of the great scholars, orators, musicians or scientists. When these gentlemen come to town they are modestly and graciously received but they are not greeted as the Irish greet DeValera or the English greet Lloyd George or the Italians greet D'Annunzio. Surely the feeble minded black people must expect Jack Johnson to force Congress to pass an Anti-Lynching bill and abolish the Jim Crow cars. We would not be surprised if this gentleman would not be found holding a closer place in the hearts of black Americans than their pastors and that is going some. What is Johnson's peculiar magnetism? To read what the rabid editor of the "Pitch Fork," a Texas paper, thinks of the Tulsa riots, one would think the heart of this man has indeed turned to stone. Among other things this semicivilized white man says the negroes never contributed anything to art and literature and that for his impudence in Tulsa he was accorded proper treatment. We wonder what he would say if he visited one of Chicago's black and tan cabarets. The poor fellow would at least fall dead with a stroke of apoplexy as he observed how "social equality" is put into practice after the evening shadows fall. Another bomb was exploded last week, another crime was committed against a black man in Chicago and his property. This happened while the Chicago Real Estate Board was entertaining real estate men from all over the country. It appears that this particular bomb was set off just to let the visiting realtors see how easy it is to do this little job and get away with it. Mayor Thompson is still silent and Ed. Wright's dreamy eyes are seen gazing fondly at the calender. His great wall orbs flash and his lips form into a sickly smile when he sees "pay day." We are paving all right.
