Call Out Cops To Guard Baptist Convention Senators Filibuster Anti-Lynch Bill To Death PRICE 5 CENTS DEACON VOL. IV.—No. 49. TELLOFAWFUL CONDITION NEAR OLIVET Alderman Fails to Remove Bad Places Away from Church Virgil Williams, candidate for Alderman of the Second Ward, states in plain English, that Olivet Baptist Church, the largest Protestant institution in the world, has been hammered in its great work because the authorities have permitted vice dens to grow up and thrive around it. Mr. Williams states that Olivet is located at the corner of 31st St. and South Park Ave and that on all sides within a Church, the largest Protestant institution in the world, has been hampered in its great work because the authorities have permitted vice deeds to grow up and thrive around it. Mr. Williams states that Olivet is located at the corner of 31st St. and South Park Ave. and that on all sides within a stone's throw that houses of prostitution are permitted to operate unhampered and unmolested by the authorities and he places the blame upon Louis B. Anderson, present Alderman, member of the Finance Committee and floor leader of Mayor Thompson. Shame to Society These conditions are the slams of society continues Mr. Williams, and if Mr. Anderson had put them squarely up to the Mayor he feels sure that Olivet would not be embarrassed with these flagrant evils. There are dens of vice at 216 E. 31st St. 316 E. St. 121 E. 30th St. 216 E. 31st St. These places are houses of prostitution operated and controlled by the Hebrew syndicate which has imperiled this district and defied our largest Christian institutions. Anderson cannot escape the blame for these conditions and Williams asserts that every minister in Chicago will be informed by him in person. The South Side must be rid of these evils which destroy our morale. EXTRA! POLICE THROW GUARD AROUND CONVENTION St. Louis, Mo., Dec. 6—Following the receipt of threats to blow up the National Baptist Convention, chief of Police O'Brien ordered a special detail of police to guard the theatre where sessions are being held. The convention meetings are being held in a theatre in the west end disbuilding and shoot down members of strict of the city, and white residents of that district who object to the presence of the large body of Baptists there are thought to have made the threats. Delegates from all parts of the country are attending the convention, which was postponed after being scheduled to be held in Los Angeles last summer, owing to the railroad strike. A successor to the late president Morris is to be elected. FAREWELL TO BISHOP BROOKS BALTIMORE, Dec. 9—2,000 people crowded Bethel Church here last week to bid farewell and bon voyage to Bishop W. Sampson Brooks on his return trip to West Africa, where he is stationed. The Bishop was presented with a contribution of $1,040 in cash to take along with him. GETS $50.00 FOR EXCLUSION FROM SWIMMING POOL NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 2—A colored citizen of New York, James Pilcher, who was excluded from the Madison Square Garden Swimming Pool, took the case to law, upon the advice of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, with the result that the Swimming Pool settled the case out of court and paid $50. The case was undertaken under the Civil Rights law of New York State. Mr. Pilcher contiled his attorney in August of this year. On November 22, a check for $50 was in his attorney's hands. The exclusion at the Madison Square Garden Pool was upon the protext that Mr. Pilcher was not a member of "the club," and could therefore not use the swimming pool. However, Mr. Pilcher was accompanied by a white friend who gained access to the pool upon payment of the admission fee, without being a member of "the club." "LINC'S" LATEST PRANK IS SUPER INSURANCE Literature is now being distributed among trifurial societies throughout the country bearing the name of the National Underwriters Corporation, an organization proposing to write wholesale and group insurance, with headquarters at 1216 Penna, Ave., N.W. Washington, D. C. Printed letterheads of this organization bear four names, H. L. Johnson, R. R. Church, P. W. Howard, and John T. Risher. An interesting story comes from Washington in connection with the organization. Super-Insurance After careful tabulation of statistics some months ago, it was discovered that the cost of collecting fraternal and industrial insurance represented about forty per cent of the whole amount. It was further discovered that time and expense could be concentrated by an organization of the fraternity of fraternies. In other words, if we nine倍 fraternies in the United States would organize a subsidiary corporation to underwrite the insurance of the entire group, the saving of time and money would be tremendous. Sells Idea To Whites In an unguarded moment, the originator of the idea discussed it with three of the four men whose names appear on the letterhead of the National Underwriters Corporation. According to him, they then grabbed the idea, and in his own words, "sold the proposition cold turkey to white insurance underwriters with a view to immediate and close profits." A few weeks ago Johnson, Church, and Howard made a visit to Chicago. Their mission seemed clothed in secrecy. At their apartments in the Vincennes Hotel, many whispered conferences are said to have taken place. Then John is appeared on the floor. He is a white man, and is said to represent the white underwriters. The corporation is now ready for and soliciting business from the various organizations using fraternal and industrial insurance. Thus, with a stolen idea, and cloaking white insurance underwriters under literature bearing the names of four black men, the National Underwriters Corporation is alleged to be about to deliver the Masons, Pythians, Odd Fellows, and numerous other fraternities into the hands of insurance interests who would otherwise call a Black man a "poor risk." POST WARNINGS ON CHURCH ATHENS, Ga., Dec. 9.—Citizens of Athens were aroused in alarm and indignation at the appearance of warnings posted on church and lodge hall doors, warning all non-white residents of the county to leave by the first of the year. CHICAGO, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 9th, 1922. CUTS SENATORS LYNCH ANTI LYNCH BILL Said They Would Argue to Judgement Day to Avoid Bill WASHINGTON, Dec. 9. After an apparently determined effort on the part of Republican leaders to force the Dyer Anti-Lynch Bill to a vote in the Senate last week, Democrats under the leadership of Senator Underwood, of Alabama, succeeded in filibustering it into a state of coma, if not actual death. When the bill was brought up for consideration, it was the declaration of Republican leaders that a vote would be forced on it before any other bills were taken up. Democrats then declared their intention to indipide in a filibuster from that moment until March 4, when Congress automatically expires, thus tying up all other legislation. Republicans then, countered by threatening to extend sessions of the Senate throughout Thanksgiving day. Democrats Carry Out Threat Democrats Carry Out Threat The Democratic filibuster then commenced and remained unbroken throughout Tuesday and Wednesday. Not a single item of business was transacted, the entire sessions being taken up with speeches of a satirical and dilatory nature. Late Wednesday afternoon Republicans abandoned their threat to hold the Senate in session over Thanksgiving day. They decided also to give the bill one more day, and if it was not passed Friday to drop it and take up other legislation. Friday the Democrats returned to the Senate chamber evidently determined to continue their obstructive tactics. They finally consented to drop the filibuster long enough to consider a motion to adjourn in respect to the memory of Congressman James R. Mann, of Illinois, who had died the day before. Evidently a gentleman's agreement had been reached between the two parties. It was freely predicted in and about the capitol building that the Republicans had made their supreme effort in behalf of the measure, and would not endanger other administration legislation now pending by insisting on the passage of the Lynch Bill. Use Praver to Aid Filibuster So effectively did the filibusters work that the Senate was unable to dispose of the routine of approving the journal of the previous day's session. Senator Harrison (Miss) leader of the filibusters, discoverer that the opening prayer was not an included part of the commission and made a motion to have the prayer included. After several hours' debate on this question the senate, by an overwhelming vote, des- (Continued on Page 4.) SEIGEL SAYS THAT HE WAS MISUNDERSTOOD Mr. Jake Seigel, head of the General Meat Market Company wishes the public to know that in this interview with a representative of the Whip last week he was misunderstood, due no doubt to his use of the English language. He states that he does employ black people in his store and that he has instructed all of his managers to treat all people alike regardless of race or color, and that he intended to say last week was that the prices for turkey and chicken were too high on account of wholesalers trying to get top prices. The prices that he would have been forced to pay would have made the price of turkey and duck too high for anybody. Mr. Seigel states that he was raised around the corner of 35th and State Streets and has always had a friendly attitude towards black people. He made these statements on account of the article appearing in last week's issue of The Whip.

Note the Defender's plant, the editor's car and the adjacent house of ill fame at 3439 Indiana Ave. The Defender is silent, the editor happy and you hear the maudlin laughter at the brothel when you pass by. According to rumors afoot in Chicago and Washington, Senator Pat Harrison only told the Senate half the story when he declared last week that Emmett Scott, William H. Lewis, James A. Cobb, the Rev. Ernest Lyon, and William L. Houston were to receive $650,000 if Liberia obtained the $5,000,000 loan from the United States government. He did not tell the Senate how he received the information or why it was given to him, according to the rumor. It will be noticed that among the names of those charged with being involved in the intrigue are none of the political characters who are almost always in great evidence in national political affairs. Neither Henry Lincoln Johnson, Perry Howard, nor R. R. Church, was named in the case. There then came a dramatic story of how the Liberian republic was thwarted of the loan in the interest of which President King, of Liberia, came to Washington. The Story According to the story now going the round, it appeared that the Liberian loan was about to be passed, and that Scott et al. were to receive $50,000 for successfully propagating the affair. Certain old timers, well known were about to be left out of the reward entirely. A war council was held in Washington and a method of procedure to be decided upon. The outsiders, it is reported, then and there decided to queer the entire loan before they would allow the Scott-Lewis coterie to "put it over them." It was therefore agreed that a squawk would be made. The most effective "squawk," it was decided, should be made to a Southerner and a Democrat, the last man in the Senate who would consent to see $5,000,000 turned over to a black republic. Accordingly Senator Harrison, of Mississippi, was picked as the man to whom the question would be made. Then the question arose as to who should do the equaling. It naturally fell to the man who came from the same locality as the senator, and who knew him best. The squale was made, Senator Harrison hurled his charges and killed the Liberian loan. LESS THAN 25c A DAY IS RATION IN FLORIDA JAILS JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Dec. 9.—The circuit court grand jury recently issued a report of the county jail. In this report it criticized the administration of the sheriff, particularly with regard to the section occupied by Black men. It declared that toilet provisions were inadequate, there being one such for twenty-five men. It is the same with shower and sanitary basin. "When the men are locked in their individual cells after 6 o'clock in the evening they are denied the use of these accommodations until the cells are opened in the morning. This portion of the jail is filthy and the equipment should be moved and replaced with modern equipment. The sheriff is allowed 55 cents for food each inmate and 10 cents for food reads. "It appears to this jury from the food inspected and from the information gained in conversation with prisoners that less than half the amount allowed for each man is expended for food." The jury found the white men's and women's and colored women's departments in satisfactory condition. AFRICAN ASTRONOMER FINDS NEW COMET CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec. 9. The Harvard observatory has received word by cable of the discovery of a comet by Skjelperup, the South African astronomer, at Cambridge, November 26. The comet is described as faint and the position given was in the constellation of Crater. Telescopic observations taken at Harvard after the receipt of the cablegram show the comet to be brighter than Baade's comet, which was recently discovered, and to be moving more rapidly.

Two doors away from this grambling den may be seen the plant of the Chicago Defender, "World's Greatest Weekly". This institution, which boasts unlimited power, has either been unwilling or unable to have this vice spot removed from beneath its very nose. Not one word of protest has been uttered through the columns of this newspaper. The press is the public expression of the people; the press creates and influences public opinion. When the press is silent that silence means that consent and sanction is granted. The Chicago Defender read and supported by the colored people of Chicago cannot ignore with any degree of grace or condemn these conditions and its protracted silence maybe fairly implied to mean its approval. During the last year the residential and business districts of the colored people have become flooded with vice of all forms and fashions. The striking fact in this surge of wantonness is that white people have become the proprietors and profiteers from these evils and the black people have been shut out. A Jewish syndicate controls the prostitution. White gamblers have superseded the petty gamesters of the black race and now the games of chance are conducted by these white men ala Monte Carlo and ala Deauville. CITIZENS POWERLESS Defender readers and friends are powerless to alleviate the appalling conditions. Petitions, protests and serions have done no good and the Defender boasting of power and influence absolutely refuses to aid their readers but majestically the arrogant one concerned. The court is owned by colored people and when colored people permit vice to flourish within their own districts without a protest, something is suggested which does not set well in the mind.

VAN PELT IS SLASHED AT CHURCH Deacon's Wife Offended; He Uses Knife for Revenge CLEVELAND, O., Dec. 9.—The Deacon board meeting of the Tabernacle Baptist Church, located at 2535 E. 40th street broke up in a free-for-all fight Monday night, in which the minister, Rev. W. M. Vanpelt was all but cut to death, and the assassin, Gus Mangram made good his escape. The trouble is said to have arisen over a remark made by the minister nearly a fortnight ago, at a meeting in which the wife of the assassin, Mrs. Blanch Mangram, took offense at, and considered aimed at her. The minister claims that he merely told her she had asked a foolish question. Wanted Apology Gus Mangram, however, insisted on an apology, demanded in a note sent to the minister, earlier in the day. The minister did not reply, and while the men were in meeting Monday night listening to their pastor who had the floor, Mangram is said to have stood up, hands in pockets, and demanded an apology then and there. Rev. Vampelt is said to have told him he had done nothing to apologize for, whereupon Mangrum lunged at him, cutting two deep and dangerous cuts of which extended from the left eye to the base of the skull, and the other迪亚迪 the throat from car to ear. The weapon being brought near the chin is said by doctors to be the only reason that his head was not severed from his body. Twenty-five stitches were necessary. Worked Fast Mangram is said to have worked so fast, all the rest of the deacons were breathless for a second. The intensity was then broken, women began to scream. Deacons began to wield chairs, but before they had gotten started good Mangram had knocked two of them down and was swallowed up in the night. He is still at large and is said to be from Memphis; is a slender brown skin, weight about 165 pounds.

EMMETT SCOTT MAKES VEHEMENT DENIAL EMMETT SCOTT MAKES VEHEMENT DENIAL WASHINGTON, Dec. 9—In a lengthy letter prepared for the press, Emmett Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, vehemently denied that he had entered into any agreement with the Liberian government to receive any commission in the event that the proposed Liberian loan of $5,000,000 should pass the Senate, Senator Harrison, of Mississippi, charged in the Senate that Scott and four others would receive the sum of $650,000 if Liberia received the loan.

One member of the commission was the American Negro be- cievery active in championing the cause of his race. He has been aided by several whites from the United States. Resolution Unanimous The resolution, which was adopted without a dissenting vote, declares the Negro question has become a live issue in connection with efforts toward a world revolution of the workers against their capitalist exploiters and that the Communist International, recognizing it as such, call attention to it as a problem which must be dealt with. The resolution pledges the members of the International to strive for the equality of Negroes and white, and for the full political and social freedom of the African race. The aid which such action on the part of millions of the world's most militant workers will give to the cause of Negro liberation cannot be minimized. The communists are today a tremendous factor in world affairs and their influence is felt in practically every country of the world. The resolution declares: "The communists will use all their power and influence with trade unions to admit Negroes as members, and if necessary, the Internationale will undertake a special campaign to achieve this aim. If these efforts fail, the Internationale will organize special Negro unions to further the cause." The resolution further says the colored populations of Japan, China, India, Morocco and other countries also are struggling against oppression, having the same aims as those in the United States and elsewhere. The resolution says that if such a step is necessary, the Internationale will organize an all-Negro conference for the purpose of considering the betterment of the black race in all parts of the world. Detailing the history of Negroes in the United States, the resolution asserts that the civil war was merely a struggle between the capitalists of the north and the capitalist-planters of the south for domination, and not the struggle for Negro emancipation it is falsely reputed to have been.

It began to get cold, however, Thursday for and Wallace thought it was time for Tolliver to return. A quarrel ensued, and the men fought. Tolliver hit Wallace over the left ear with a heavy blunt object. He is now in the county jail and doesn't need an overcoat. FINDS HIS WIFE "PASSING," HE WANTS DIVORCE NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 2.—Crusader Service.) Alleging that his wife had forgotten to supply him with her family genealogical tree, and had therefore kept from him her knowledge that she possessed African blood, one John Stovall, a white insurance broker of 2261 Andrews Avenue, Bronx, has sought before Supreme Court Justice Faber of Brooklyn to have his marriage annulled. The Stovalls have been married and living together for a year. They were evidently fairly successful in their negotiation of the rocky road of matrimony until old ubiquitous mother-in-law sprang the coup in the traditional fight between son's wife and son's mother and handed Cupid the count by her revelation that Mrs. Stovall was of African blood. Mrs. Stovall, who is through her attorney, that as nobody had ever questioned her as to her race ties she had felt no obligation to boast of her possession of the blood of the Pharaohs. Justice Faber directed that the case be tried next month. In the meantime speculation is rife as to whether the courts could stand the burden if every wife and every hubby with the least drop of African blood in their veins were sued for separation. It is said that thousands of light-colored people are at present "passing" and that somewhere between one and two million apparently white people have colored blood in their veins, themselves apparently unaware of the fact. ACQUITS CATTS OF PEONAGE CHARGE PENSACOLA, Fla., Dec. 9—Ex-Governor Catts, of Florida, was freed last week of charges of holding men in ponchage.

Catts was alleged to have held two men in bondage on his plantation after he had freed them from prison. TWAS REPREHENSIBLE TO USE US IN WAR GERMAN GENERAL NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 9 — Twas reprehensible and dangerous for the white races of the whole world to use Black Americans to fight against the Germans in the late war, according to a copyrighted story written by General Baron von Gallwitz of the German High Command. General von Gallwitz commanded the German army opposed to the 92nd and 93rd divisions. He says: "We Germans felt, as white men, that the use of colored troops against us was reprehensible and dangerous for the white races of the whole world. But it must be admitted that the American Negro is different from the Senegalese or Moroccan. The American government had no choice but to use the black men, since they had full rights of citizenship over there. EROS. & CO. s-Watches STMAS PRESENTS ER THAN CASH PRICES quainted.

Can a mother's voice arouse a young one from the sleep of death? Mrs. George Kayou, white, a Portuguese, living at 338 Lewis Street, believes these things are true. Yesterday her baby, as far as any human agency could determine, was dead. Today her baby is alive. The child revived while lying upon a slab in the undertaking parlor of Dr. and Mrs. Charles Baker. Vainly do physicians speak of "suspended animation," that trance-like state which so closely resembles death. The mother of the child that was given up for dead simply shakes her head and repeats in her broken English: "My baby die. I pray God to give back my baby. God feel sorry for me. He open the gate and let her come back to me." Prayer Answered, Mother Believes It was early yesterday that Mrs Kayou's 16-day-old baby girl "died" of a bronchial complaint. The heart as far as could be discovered, had stopped beating. The breath and all other bodily functions apparently had ceased. The baby was pronounced dead. Hours later, in the Baker undertaking parlors, Mrs. Baker laid the infant's body upon a slab to prepare it for burial. The body was cold; the arms and legs rigid. There was at that moment not the slightest indication of life in the body. Dead Six Hours Mrs. Baker laid a wet sponge upon the breast just over the child's heart. As she did so, she sensed, rather than felt, that the delicate human mechanism was not entirely stopped. She laid her hand over the heart and detected a slight flutter. She seized the child and began applying artificial respiration, holding the baby near the fire as she worked over it. Lusty Cry Is Reward Gradually a flush began to replace the waxen hue in the baby's cheeks. The child's eyes fluttered open and it threshed out with its arms and legs. The woman's efforts were regarded by a lusty cry—that least musical and most significant of sounds, the wail of a newborn babe. But this was the cry of the re-born, expressive of the pain which attends a returning from the shadows to pick up the thread of life once more.

Halstead Eagleson, a sophomore at Indiana university and a member of the University Band asserts that he was held in the Owen County jail at Spencer from Friday night until 1 p.m. Saturday without proper authority. Eagleson returned to this sity Saturday evening and immediately consulted attorneys about the affair. The colored student and his friends assert that his detention in jail was part of a plan to prevent his accompanying the Indiana University Band to Lafayette to attend the Indiana-Purdue game Saturday afternoon. It is also asserted by some that the Ku Klux Klan of Monroe county had a part in the affair. Elements in Monroe county that are opposed to the Klan are understood to be making an investigation in behalf of Eagleson. It was predicted that affidavits would be filed against two university students, and that officials of Owen county might become involved in the investigation. Eagleson said he was approached Friday afternoon by a student of Indiana university and asked to go to Spencer to look at a cornet and advise him in regard to its purchase. He said he made the trip with the students and two other men and that they drove about town a short time after arriving. "Let's get this thing over," he said one of the three asserted, and then they drove to the bridge over White river at the edge of Spencer where another car was met. A man stepped from the second car and "arrested" Eagleson, he asserted, saying he was the sheriff of Owen county, and took him to jail. Was Not Scarched Eagleson said he was not searched while in the Owen county jail and that the officials refused to permit him to call his sister, May Engleson, of this city, or Herbert Rundell, judge of the Monroe and Owen circuit courts, or Robert V. Miers, former judge of the circuit court. He said the Owen county officials asserted he was arresting him on the request of a "Detective Moore" who had called from Bloomington. The officials said he released him on a call from the same place.

REPORT SHOWS HOWARD NOW IN GLASS A ‘The customary report submitted by Howard University to the Secretary of the Interior shows that all the schools of the University have been accepted to Class A standings. An abstract of the report is as follows: Howard University, incorporated by act of Congress, March 2, 1867, grad- uated 245 students at its fifty-third gommencement held June 9, 1922. The total registration of students for the year was 1954, divided as follows: Junior College, 513; School of Liberal Arts, 176; School ‘of Education, 38; School of Commerce and Finance, 41: School of Applied Science, 76; School of Music, 82; post graduates, 2; even- ing classes, 88; School of Religion, 266; School of Medicine, 32; and School of Law, 155, The Dental Coilege of the School of Medicine has been accepted as Class +A by the New York State Board. of Regents, The Medical College has held that rating for some years, ‘The School of Liberal Arts has been placed on the approved list. by. the Association of Colleges and Prepara tory Schools of the Middie States and Maryland, and thus enters the sister- hood of ‘great American educational institutions, With this new rating and that of the Dental College, this year has seen marked advance in the Scholastic standing of Howard Uni versity. With the opening of the autumn quarter, 1922, the School of Public Health’ and Hygiene, which had_ its beginning in the Department of Phys- ical Education, will be an important factor in the life of the University. It hopes to specd the gospel of health, social, and economic improvement to the 11,000,000 colored people in this country in order that they may become a greater asset to America and more thoroughly typify her ideals of useful citizenship, “There will be various de- partments that it may reach the widest posuible scope, i.e, for graduates in medicine; for graduates of recognized colleges and universities; Department of Nursing; Department of Social Service; Department of Physical Edu- ation. The Reserve Officers Training Corps Unit of the University passed into its thirds years of existence in February, 1922, and awards of Reserve Officers! commissions as second lieutenants were made at commencement by the Assist- ant Secretary of War to seventeen young men of the University. This inarks the first time in? tory of the United States that 1 men have received such comm from the War Department. SAYS AFRICAN ADVENTURE WAS CAUSE OF WAR NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 9.—(Cru- sader Service.)—Writing in. the New York Call, Jean Longuct, French So- cialist leader and grandson of Karl Marx, nows touring this country, makes an attack on Clemenceau and branded the French adventure in Morocco as the direct cause of the late war: “He (Clemenceau) forgets all the colonial policy of adventure, more es- pecially in Mexico, and having been thrown to the ground above all for this Feason, “He (Clemenceau) forgets all the cotonial policy of adventure that was followed by those various governments, including his own, more especially to- ward Morocco, and which was over and over again most eloquently. de- nounced from the floor of the French parliament by our great Jaures, “How frequently did Jaures demon: strate that by invading that African country, in violation of the very. trea- ties that our government had signed, We were exciting everywhere in. the world the appetites of the various and similar nationalisms and. imperialisms of Germany, Ttaly, Austria, Russia, and even of those which Jautes called the ‘smaller carnivorous States’ of the Balkans “Everybody knows how, from the French Moroccan expedition to the Tripolitan attack by Italy, to the at- tack by Bulgaria, Servia and Greece on Turkey, there ‘was a powerful link of facts and events, and everybody knows how the Balkan war was the prelude of the World war.” NEW YORK, Dec. 9—More than 800 persons were victims of mob vio- lence in this country from September 1, 1920, to June 1, 1922, the American Civil Liberties Union’ reported last week, The union's figures included eighty five yn ne tar and feath ae gings'and the remait the Far and Middle Wests WESTBROOK [5 APPOINTED ASOT STATE'S ATTORNEY Attorney Richard E, Westbrooks of the law firm of Ellis & Westbrooks was appointed assistant. state's. attor- ney of Cook County Friday.

While this has been going on the tenants have not been asleep, for many of them have been bending every effort to secure long term leases at their present rental. These intelligent storekeepers have taken time by the forelock and are not waiting until the lights are in actual operation, as they surely realize that with these new improvements pending and State Street light as day, a new page in the history of this thoroughfare will have been written, meaning keen competition for stores, with one merchant outbidding the other. Great credit is due the South State Street Commercial Association for what they have already accomplished and we hope the results attained will spur them on to still greater efforts. It should be the means of great satisfaction to them to see the wonderful new appearance this street has taken on and the praise this improvement has received from the public patronizing this neighborhood, which necessarily means that they will tell their friends, signalizing greater business and more beautiful stores. This highway is now in our hands and it shall be our pleasure to make it the most beautiful and most inviting on the entire south side. Keep your eyes open and watch for the grand opening.

Cash or Easy Payments 3851-53 State Street NEAR 39th Pershing Rd. Weekly Business Review Edited By ETTINGER F. SMITH. GENERAL CONDITIONS General conditions throughout the country are good. With $1,100,000,000 more gold in the treasury now than in 1919, there is provided the basis for much greater credit expansion, which together with the many continuously improving business indexes, warrants the lay public in looking forward to the first of the year with great optimism. Savings bank deposits continue to mount; the rapidity with which the highest grade securities are snapped up illustrates the tremendous buying power of the American public, as beginning to flow into industry. The railroads are handling record traffic, the equipment companies are booked with orders of unprecedented volume and the unfilled orders of the steel companies continue to pile up. These conditions, of course, require labor and it can readily be seen that the working man has naught to complain of in the way of unemployment. In view of these conditions there is little on the horizon to create the least distrust with the affairs of this country for the next few months to come. PROSPERITY ERA AT HAND "All channels of commerce now appear to be active," and "There is every reason for the expectation that we are now at the beginning of an era of prosperity." This optimistic statement comes from the lips of Comptroller of Currency Crissinger, and coming from such a source can be taken at its face value.

Jewish students were beaten and driven from the buildings.

"Wow, the country to know this is a fight against the Dyer bill," said Senator Underwood. "Unless an agreement is reached upon it you won't pass your supply bills this winter and you will make general legislation impossible. If you think you can pass it by 'strong arm' methods, now is the time to try it. But I don't think you can." Basis of Attack "The senator intimates that he will not be satisfied with defeating the Dyer bill, but threatens to defeat all other legislation," said Senator Nelson. "The seator is right," Underwood replied. "We regard the Dyer bill as a violation of the constitution and an infringement of our liberties, and are determined not to permit it to pass."

Globe) Unless we are very much mistaken another "Shuffle Along" came to town last evening. This is "Liza"—a thing of incessant jokes, songs, and dances at Daly's Sixty-third Street Theatre performed by an aggregation of color varying in hue all the way from the deepest of ebony to the most delicate of chocolate. We have said "another 'shuffle Along,'" but on second thought, this seems a bit disparaging. "Liza" can stand on her own feet, and in comparison with the many other Negro entertainments that have come our way since the event of "Shuffle Along" over a year ago we feel inclined to give "Liza" a great deal the best of it. It seems better put together, richer in humor and general flavor, and, if it is possible for you to believe, sustained at an even higher tempo. There is some unconscious rhythm to which the whole performance keeps time. This is the beat, beat of the jungle or the pulse of darkest Africa—whatever you care to call it. But it is there as surely it is absent from the average Broadway revue, which at best has only a little manufactured rhythm of its own. "Liza" is in tune with the rhythm of the spheres. It is a task hopeless as well as unnecessary to single out individual acts and players. The most catching song is one bearing the title of the piece, but every one in the cast is a star. The comedy is old hokum well handled, all the more welcome on that account. There is a scene in a graveyard in which the two principal comedians about to exhume a corpse having five hundred dollars on its person, are frightened away by a ghost, and another delectable act takes place in a barber shop. The humor slips from the happy-go-lucky and innocent into studied vulgarity but once. Persons loud in praise of the "Chauve Souris" speak of the joyousness of the performers. This is precisely the quality of "Liza," and we should cheerfully recommend it for any foreign port to the American equivalent of what Mr. Ralieff has given us. L. M. R. CREAMER NAMED IN 'STRUT MISS LIZZIE' SUIT NEW YORK, November 25—Earl Carroll, the young theatrical producer, was ordered by Supreme Court Judge McAvey last week to appear for examination before the attorneys for Strut, Miss Lizzie, Inc., in the action brought recently against him and the Earl Carroll Realty Corporation, for $25,000 damages. Strut, Miss Lizzie, Inc., is the corporation which is alleged to own the all-colored musical show, "Strut, Miss Lizzie," which ran at the Carroll Theatre for some last summer, Winston Minsky, the burlesque producer, and Arthur Lyons, the agent, being the principal stockholders in it. It was charged by the plaintiff that Earl Carroll had conspired illegally with Henry Creamer, the colored songwriter and original producer of the show, to deprive it of its interest, and Kendall Goldman, the attorney court order for the examination of Carroll before trial last week. Carroll's attorneys made a motion to vacate this order, but it was denied by Judge McAvey. Although claiming to be the owner of "Strut, Miss Lizzie," the plaintiff corporation was not allowed to share the property, and it ran at the Carroll, it is alleged.

ORCHESTRA WANTED TO WALK OUT ON DARK MUSICIANS ZANESVILLE, O., Dec. 9—When the Shuffle Along road show No. 2 opened here, local white musicians refused to work with colored musicians carried by the show. The men objected to were George Platt, a drummer, and Messrs. Pritchard, Bennett, and Williams. The whites threatened to desert the theatre, and leave the show without musical accompaniment. However, T. L. Cornwell, white musical director of the show, pointed out to the recalecitrant ones that all the men in question were in good standing with the A. F. M., and to leave the theatre would cost the strikers $100 each. Rather than lose the cash, they returned.

Miss Lottie Gee was assigned to take the part sung by Miss Spencer, and Miss Revella Hughes took Miss Gee's role. Miss Hughes formerly sang for the Black Swan records and created an enviable record with her beautiful voice. She has been tutoring Miss Spencer six weeks.

Orchestra in Concert The Coleridge Taylor Concert Orchestra made its first public appearance Sunday, December 3rd, at Walter's A, M. E. Zion Church. The orchestra has been practicing steadily for six months, and showed it by a well-rendered program which included selections from Pryor, Grieg, Haydn and Rossini. The audience in the Rossini number was so taken off its feet by the rousing climaxes that they broke into applause several times in the middle of the number. Mr. Harrison Emanuel was the soloist of the occasion. As usual he was enjoyed by an audience that packed the house to the doors. STOLE 5c; GOES TO PEN CHATTANOOGA.

BASS Dyeing, Pressing and Shoe Shining LEANED AND BLOCKED THE WORLD OF SPORTS INVESTIGATE ALLEGED SIKI FRAME UP PARIS, Dec. 9.—The "affaire Sidi" surrounding the big Senegalese prize fighter who won the light heavyweight championship of the world by defeating Georges Carpentier, but who recently was deprived of the title by the boxing federation and also was denied the right to engage in pugilistic contests for nine months, is to be threshed out before the courts. A complete investigation of the circumstances surrounding the Carpentier which the Senegalese deputy, Diagne, interviewed, the chamber of deputies last week in open debate as a "frameup" is to be made by the civil tribunal. Two Lawsuits Started The boxing federation has called a special meeting for this afternoon to discuss the accusations made against it by Deputy Diagne, and announces that it will take legal proceedings for damages against the deputy. On the other hand Diagne himself has engaged counsel to sue the federation in defense of Siki and to prevent the federation from placing the Senegalese fighter in the position of being unable to earn his living, thus leaving Siki, his wife and child "facing starvation." Diagnes accusations in open session of the chamber of deputies to which the federation takes exception are quoted in the report published by the Journal Official, as follows: "Siki refused to carry out instructions which would have caused the public to be fooled and swindled of its money. Suddenly becoming conscious of his own strength while in the rings, he refused to lie down in the fourth round and abandon to Carpenter another victory." EAST'S BASEBALL TEAMS ORGANIZE While the echo of the past season has scarcely died in the distance, many baseball fans are wondering what the 1923 season will bring, wondering what will be the relative strength of the respective clubs, wondering if the owners will furnish exhibitions that will appease their appetites for the national pastime, that have been whetted to a keen edge by their knowledge of the game and of conditions that exist in their territory. All of these, will, of course, be revealed when "Father Time" forces a show down, but a peep at the hand is very gratifying to the most of us. After all the chief consideration of the magnates are the peanut shuckers who populate the benches, while the players go through their setting exercise and the players recognize the rights of the pastboard purchasers, who produce the rhythmic clicking of the turnstiles, might as well turn his ball yard into a cow pasture and the players grab the "help-wanted" sheet of the daily. We don't mind getting mixed up in an argument when we have an opportunity to drive home our point, but it takes a darn good judge to decide which is the best rooster by the length of their spurs, and now the fans want to know why the Hildale team spends most of their Sundays in New York and never show their wares at the home grounds of the Lincoln Giants, and why the Lincoln Giants, Brooklyn Royals and Cuban Stars spend their week ends around Philadelphia and never once turn their steps in the direction of Hildale Park, in short, the fans want to see these teams mix it so they can tell "who's who" in the East. When the men behind the gun gather around the tranquil, if not festive board, if present indications do not get knocked sake, all difference will be ironed out and foundation laid for a firm organization that will heme-fit the game from all angles. Many natural advantages are en- joyed by the cities that will surely get representation in the Eastern Circuit, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Atlantic City, have for many years been represented by first-class ball teams. Nothing is in the experimental stage, the parks are there, the patronage has been built up and men of long experience and good repute are at the hands. Weekly excursions on various rail- roads run from Philadelphia to New York, Baltimore and Atlantic City, ins- uring minimum transportation for clubs which is one o the overhead expenses that go a long way toward sending many traveling clubs to the wall. Well, there are big doings slated for the off-season, when the majority of us think that baseball is dead, so tune up your instrument and listen in! TALLADEGA NOSES OUT TUSKFEGE TUSKEEGE, Ala., Nov. 30—Tullahega was too much for Tuskeege here today and the loc' huskies were forced to bow in defeat to the Atlantans in one of the hardest fought contests of the season. The victors were lighter but faster than Tuskeege and this coupled with a brilliant bit of aerial supremacy simply swept the home boys off their feet. The final score was 9-6. 3-0. in First Half The end of the first half saw the teams battling almost on even terms except for a brilliant drop kick advantage by Bragg substitute full back. But in the second half both teams profited by recovering blocked punts and in each case skirted the necessary distance to a touchdown. B. Spencer, Gordon, White, Knox and Wilson were the stars for Talla-dega. LINCOLN AGAIN WHIPS HOWARD IN YEAR'S FOOTBALL CLASSIC By Fred Moore. WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 9. Thousands of persons representing the alumni and friends of the Howard University, Washington, D. C., and Lincoln University, Chester County, Pa., poured into Washington to witness the annual football clash between the eleven of the two schools on Thanksgiving Day morning at 10:30 o'clock, November 30, 1922. This event which has now become known as "The Football Classic of the Year, among colleges for the training of colored youth has truly become also the meeting place of the most representative group of the colored youth in America. In 1920 the two teams played each other to a standstill at Philadelphia, the next year at Washington Howard defeated Lincoln 4 to 0, last year at Philadelphia Lincoln defeated Howard 13 to 7. The teams were well balanced, splendidly coached and the record-breaking crowd were invoked with the greatest athletic treat in Negro collegiate history. The game was played at 10:30 and the Thanksgiving morning at the American football day was made memorable by reunion parties of Howard and Lincoln "grads." Dinner Proceeds Contest Wednesday night university officials gave a dinner in the new dining hall in honor of the colored newspaper men from all parts of the country who came to report the game. Other events for the entertainment of the graduates and friends of the two schools were arranged for, including a banquet given by the Howard Alumni Association in honor of alumni who had come to witness the athletic prowess of the eleven of their Alma Mater. When the whistle blew for the kickoff the eyes of nearly 15,000 persons were centered on the elevenes of Howard and Lincoln which faced each other on the gridiron of the American League Park, Washington, D. C. Thanksgiving day morning at 10:30 o'clock. In spite of the early hour for which the game was scheduled, great crowds came to Washington by special trains from New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Atlantic City, Chicago, Wilmington, Palmimore, Richie parties from Norfolk, and automobile parties from Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, and Maryland. The largest and most representative group ever to witness this annual athletic event between the two schools was present. Lincoln Wins Toss The "Football Classic of the Year" began with the kickoff by Howard Upon receiving the ball Lincoln brought it up field for 25 yards, but afterwards fails to make gains and punts. Howard received ball on 40- LINCOLN WINS GRAD HONOR: GETS EMBLEW WASHINGTON, D. C. There was presented at the Coliseum assembly and reception held the evening of Thanksgiving Day after the "Football Classic of the Year" to the captain of the winning football eleven the "Championship Football" at 12 o'clock, midnight. The presentation was preceded by an informal program of short talks by Dr. W. G. Alexander, Dr. George E. Cannon, and Coach John Law, representing Lineola University, President L. Stanley Durkee, and Coach W. E. Morrison, representing Howard University; and the captains of the two eleven. This program in no way interfered with the evening assembly and reception but offered opportunity to see the Lincoln and Howard teams "close-up." An elaborate decorating scheme transformed the Coliseum into a thing of beauty. Colors representing both institutions, fifty immense American flags and the banners of the two Universities, together with autumnal foliage and flowers vividly portraying the Thanksgiving season, were used to secure this effect. Mr. Louis N. Brown, the popular musical conductor, and his Deluxe Society Orchestra were at their best and offered a musical temptation which could not be resisted by the thousands of friends who were here from all parts of the country. The Coliseum affairs in the afternoon and at night made special appeal because they were given in the interest of and for the benefit of the Department of Physical Education of the Howard University. Earl Johnston Again Beaten BERWICK, Pa., Nov. 30—William Ritola of New York, today won the thirteenth annual Berwick marathon run of nine and a quarter miles, in 47:56.3-5.

The quarter ended as a placement kick tried by Lincoln fails to register from Howard's 10-yard line. The "Blue and White" became more aggressive in the fourth quarter, when Nurse blocked a Lincoln punt and Long recovered the ball and ran 20 to Lincoln's 2-yard line from which yards to goal. Doneghy missed his kick for the extra point. Lincoln then forged ahead, McLean again crossing Howard's goal, but Phillips did not register the extra point. Then Howard began a drive that carried the ball place Melton of Howard crashed through for the touchdown two minutes before the game ended. Carter tried for the goal that would have tied the score, but his effort failed. Lincoln was unable to stop the determined Howard attack between the 10-yard line, but the visitor's defense, except on one occasion was superb in the shadow of their goal. Howard made twenty first downs to six for Lincoln, but the Pennsylvania boys several times kept Howard back when the ball was in Howard's possession and their goal was threatened. Howard outplayed the Lincoln team decisively in rushing attack, but never was in the lead. Failure to add points by kicks after touchdowns cost Howard its game with Lincoln. The "Blue and White" white matched the "Orange and Blue" touchdown for touchdown, but went down to a 13 to 12 defeat. INDIANAPOLIS DEFEATED BY LONGOLNS,7-2 The strong Lincoln A. C. football team established well its claim to the title as the greatest colored team in professional circles last Thursday with a brilliant triumph over the Indianapolis Tigers. The final score was our boys, 7; Adversaries, 2. However, in justice to the brilliant aerial attack of the visitors we must say had they resorted to this their only way of gaining in the early part of the game there might have been a different story. Lincoln Weak on Pass Defense Lincoln Weak on Pass Defense It became evident to us in the very first period that the Indianapolis team was of little danger to the locals when it came to hitting the line. However, when they opened up and started an aerial game that threatened to sweep the locals off their feet we began to look in wonderset at that their chances of victory. On the other hand the locals were simply great at gaining through the line, time and again the strong triple threat back field made large gains through the line of the visitors. The management made the mistake of not giving out the name of the players at the outset of the contest, but we are pleased to tell Nos. 13, 21 and Wilson at half that their line plunging and uncanny play was simply wonderful. Chee and Dunlap Star Chee, the big Indian with the Indianapolis team and Dunlap at full Procter at quarter were the stars for the visitors. On the whole it was a great game.

THE CHICAGO WHIP HAMPTON TEAM COPS C.I.A.A. CHAMPIONSHIP By H. A. Cornish HAMPTON, Va., Dec. 9.—In her closest contest of the season, Hampton Institute defeated the much-reputed Virginia Union University football team on Thanksgiving Day by a score of 8 to 6, and thus became the undisputed champions of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association of the Middle Atlantic States. Twenty-five hundred people from Hampton and neighboring cities were present to cheer their respective teams on to vie- Gunn Drop Kicks Promptly at 2:30, Union kicked off to Hampton. The pigskin got as far as Hampton's 30-yard line. On the first two plays Hampton made 5 yards. Jacobs then called upon Gunn, who sent the ball down to Union's 21-yard line. Union was not able to gain ground to any extent and punted to her 43-yard mark. Hampton tumbled on her first play, but Dame Fortune smiled on her and she recovered the jacket. Institute boys were out to win. Points must be made to be called a new signal. Gunn dropped back and seceded Hampton's first three points with a field goal from the 35-yard line. Union received the ball on her 30-yard line and punted out of danger to Hampton's 45-yard line. Hampton fumbled on her next play. This time Fortune was not so kind and Union covered the leather on Hampton's 40-yard line. After attempting a line plunge and an end run, Union kicked behind the goal. Hampton received the ball on her 20-yard line and punted to Union's 40-yard line. Jackson, the speedy quarter for Union, was on his toes on the next play. He hit the "Seasiders" barrier and gained 19 yards. The institute wall stiffened and held Union for downs. Gunn punted out of danger to Union's 49-yard line. A fumble by the Richmond boys, and the "Seasiders" covered it on the 50-yard line. Hardwick and Cardozo began to hit the Union line. A fumble by Hampton and McDonald covered it for Union. The Union backs tried the Hampton line on two occasions, but did not gain. An incomplete forward pass ended the quarter. Union Makes Touchdown Jackson punted on his fourth down to Hampton's 90-yard line. With his back to the wall, Gunn sent the pigskin to the visitors' 49-yard line. Union tried her lightning end runs and famous triple passes, but they were broken up by Hampton's tackles. After an incomplete pass Jackson was forced to kick. Cardozo received the punt on his 20-yard line. Gunn returned the punt to the 50-yard line. Here things began to pick up through repeated line plunges and a forward pass from Jackson to W. A. Smith, which netted 30 yards, Union put the pigskin on the "Seasiders" 10-yard line. It looked as though the Hampton line would stiffen and hold Union for downs, but after two more plays, which netted 7 yards, Jackson put the ball over on the fourth down for Union's lone score. An attempt for the extra point by the air route failed. Hampton Scores Twice Captain "Red" Dabney, Hampton's all-American center, kicked off to Union's 27-yard line. Union advanced the ball to her 37-yard line. A penalty of 15 yards was imposed on Union. Jackson covered a bad pass behind his goal line, where he was downed by A. Ruffin, Hampton's last end. The result was a safety, which netted two points for Hampton. In the mixup Jackson's nose was injured, and he was forced to leave the field. Union took possession of the pigskin on her 30-yard line. After Hucles had been thrown for a loss of 9 yards, he punched to the 50-yard mark. Hard-wick, after making a 7-yard gain, fumbled, and Union recovered on her 43-yard line. On another bad pass Hucles was thrown for a loss of 30 yards. Union then punched to Hampton, who knocked the ball to her 20-yard line. With only two seconds to play, Gunn dropped back and from a difficult angle sent the ball from the three points which won the game for Hampton. The first half ended-Hampton, 8; Union, 6. A Series of Thrills The second half furnished thrills galore. More than once were the nerves of the spectators at the highest pitch. Union worked the ball to Hampton's 20-yard line. An attempted forward pass to her 1-yard line failed. At another time Union was within striking distance. On the 16-yard line Jackson, who had returned to the game, attempted to drop kick. His failure saved the day for the institute boys. Union did not furnish all the thrills. Several of Hampton's second-string backs were thrust into the fray. Joe Green and Dixon added pep to the team. The "Seasiders" marched straight down the field to Union's 1-yard line. Then a tumble. Union covered and punted out of danger. In the last few minutes of play Union again forward passes were being completed. Union was going strong. Jacobs, the quarterback, intercepted one of these and ran 15 yards as the whistle blew ending the game. Jackson, Hucules and Derritt were easily the stars for Union. The entire Hampton team played stellar ball. Too much cannot be said of the all-round work of Captain Edward L. Dabney, all-American center for three seasons and probable recipient of that honor for the present season. This was Captain Dabney's last game for Hampton, as he has just completed DEFENDERS WIN OPENER OF SEASON Al Johnson's "Chicago Defenders" won the opening game of the basketball season here last Monday night, from the fast Indianapolis Y team, by a 23-20 count. The contest was hard fought throughout. In fact it was the thrill of the game coupled with the brilliant showing of Scott recruit player that amused the throng who watched the game most. Time and again with the hostiles threatening to gain the advantage and possibly the game it was Scott, who came to the rescue of the homelings with brilliant basket after basket to add another advantage. Bluitt Not Exactly Himself Captain Virgil Bluit, always a great player, showed that he was effected with the early season stiffness and inaccurateness, when he allowed several Bluit "sure shots" to evade him for gains in the hostiles favor, at that however, the veteran player was as usual the star of the "old guard." Duff in Game Duff, who has played center for the locals for the past few years, recognized as the best in local circles was in the lineup. It was generally thought that George would not play as he has been on the sick list for some time, however, he did get into the contest and played a good game. The weakness of the Chicago team seems to rest on the fact that he simply could not jump. They were not only outumped by the visitors, but looked miserable in this department. Star Athletes Present An added attraction to the game was the presence of some of the greatest football artist of all time, which included Duke Slater, former Iowa star, Johnnie Shelburn, Dartmouth Paul Robeson, Rutgers and "Fritz" Free Pollard, Brown. These players have just completed a successful season in professional foot ball and are returning to their homes in the East to await the call to harness again next season. Score: ATHLETICS SUCCESSFUL AT PRAIRIE VIEV PRAIRIE VIEW. Tex., Dec. 9.—The football season which was a very intensive and highly satisfactory one this year for the Prairie View State Normal has closed. The school was able to accomplish this year more than it has done during the whole history of its existence in the way of athletics. A new athletic field was surveyed and put into shape, a grand stand with a seating capacity of a thousand was completed, tennis and basketball courts built both for boys and girls and the best football aggregation the school has ever boasted was developed, having gone through the season losing but a single game. Wiley University, Prairie View's most formidable antagonist and a victor of three successive years was defeated on her own campus by a score of 18 to 6. The athletic spirit on part of the entire student body and teachers was never better. Plans for next year are already in the making and it is confidently expected that this school will stand in the front ranks of Negro colleges so far as athletics is concerned. Athletics at this institution is under direct supervision of a committee appointed by the principal, the duties of which committee are to plan and provide athletics in all of its phases. The present team has been successful in putting this space on a self-supporting basis because of the interest which it has been able to create locally and otherwise. C. W. Lewis, perhaps the best basketball coach in the South among Negroes, will be in charge of this sport. The committee expects to have about eight games, including preliminary and conference games. The baseball schedule will be announced later. four years' service with the Hampton team. Lineup Time of quarters: 15 minutes. Score by periods: periods, 3 5 0 Hampton 3 5 0 Union 0 0 0 SPORTIVELY PEAKING A. By Al Monroe In reviewing the history of the careers of the leading athletes of color whose accomplishments have been great, but might have been greater, we are confronted with one whose record during his rail rail days is as near perfect as this rarest shall ever be approached. This individual is by name Paul Le Roy Robeson, former all-American athlete at Rutgers, all-American football nominee and student extraordinary. The record of Paul Le Roy would complete an interesting page in the record book of any youngster. Coming at a time when the statues of the colored athletes in the larger schools furnishes the most complexed of complexities, makes it indeed timely and equally interesting. One of the wonders of our curiosities has always thrived on our desire to determine why so many colored athletes have failed to evade the scholastic barriers. Many a colored athlete has been robbed of a chance to shine through his inability to make the grade in the class room. Now along comes Paul Beta Kappa, a great recorder in for different branches of membership in the select, fraternity known as Psi Beta Kappa, a high medal of distinction in the oratorical department and last but not least the highest mark of any student in his graduation class. Paul LeRoy was not only a credit to his but any race. He is most certainly our choice for president. We learn, with appreciation, that the new stadium erected at Columbus, Ohio, to be known as "Ohio Stadium" is one of the best in the world. We also learn that the officials in charge of the work corrected the evil that is proving a handicap to the other "great" stadiums: "heating capacity". Practical experiences have proven that the inability to accommodate alumni and friends is doing a great harm to the true sportsmanship of college athletics and college life. Scalping is fast becoming the college lad's practice, it is wrong on a small scale, yet it is wrong, and too, remember; the mite oittimes develops to be mightier than the mighty, so why not nip it in the bud. It can't do any harm, and in time may do good. Build the stadiums large enough to accommodate at least a large percent of the overflow. It can and is being done so let the West fall in line. Another important feature about this stadium is the considerate manner in which the press box is arranged. We understand the press seats are to be of glass inclosure and to have an automatic heater in connection. This is undoubtedly a pleasing bit of information to the reporter who must sit in the cold, and with numb fingers inform his paper of the actual happenings on the field. It would be a good thing if the Negro National League would follow suit; not that any glass houses need be built, but it would be a wonderful thing for them to learn that: the comfort of the men who report the results of their activities on the ball yard are as essential as anything else. The thing that has always made us look with dark eyes on the colored baseball parks is the fact that absolutely no provisions are made for the men who tell the people what happened and how it happened. It is true that they are admitted to the parks, but, if a little late, and the park is full, must sit wherever seats can be found, which is usually a rear seat, and yet the players are ready to criticise the story if anything happens to be overlooked (that was pleasing from their point of view). Now this is football season, and for this reason alone we use it as an example. There are players in these ball if we cared to use them, but regardless, let us wake up. Take Ohio as an example and treat the writers fair so they may in turn do justice to their readers. The annual meeting of the Negro National League of professional baseball is now in progress at the Appomattox Club. Just what this meeting is, for we are not exactly in a position to say. Andrew Rube Foster, the present czar and president, is in his seat now and will be at the close of the meeting, that much is settled. The present schedule is both beneficial and approved by the Chicago owner and president of the league it will hardly be altered or made less favorable to the great czar. At that, however, the meeting should be interesting, the Appomattox Club rooms are indeed the proper place for a meeting in which there is such little work to be done. It should take a few moments only to elect a vice-president, less to recrown the president, and with the exception of the work accorded the secretary and stenographer the meeting will be actually over before it starts. The Chicago basketball season opened last Monday night. Indianapolis a rather weak team were the opposing warriors. All Johnson was the team's best and here we are inclined to think rest the cue for the victory. We have 7 FISK UPSETS MOREHOUSE BY 20-19 ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 30—Fisk University defeated Morehouse here this afternoon by a score of 20-19 in a most exciting and fiercely contested game before a crowd of approximately 8,000 persons. The crowd was the largest that ever witnessed a football game in Atlanta. The score adequately represents the nature of the struggle that abounded in racing up and down the field, forward passing, spirited tackle rushes, tense situations together with fumbling and bad decisions by officials and those other things that put pet in, then take all the joy out of life. Brilliant individual playing by members of both teams marked the contest. Captain Tubby Johnson was clearly the center of interest on the bull dog aggregation although Lunceford and others of his teammates got away with longer gains than he did. With an almost perfect aim, his passes were most effective against the fierce Tigers. Captain Gayes, Irving, Gentry, Surr, Kelly, Harper and Cook were the outstanding men in the game. The Tiger line was airtight from end to end. The bull dogs tried line plunges only a few times but without any results. Irving was in every play as usual. The first quarter passed without a touchdown to either side. Harper's Great Run Starr recovered and gained 6 yards and first down. Maxwell took 1 and a pass, Kelly-Gayles was good for 20 yards and another first down. Maxwell was stopped. Kelly took 4. Gentry gained 2, Kelly made 2, but the ball went to Fisk, Johnson made 3 around end, but work was stopped. Tubby passed to Lunceford for 25 yards. Turnage was downed in his tracks by Cook. Johnson passed to Harris, who fumbled; Maxwell recovered and fumbled. Fisk recovering again. Work made 2, but Tubby fumbled and recovered the next play, losing 15 yards. Lunceford kicked 30 yards to Harper, who was downed in his tracks. Kelly made 2, but on the next play Gentry fumbled. Fisk recovering on Morehead 22, hit Harper before passing the line of serimage. Walker went in for Bayne, who had previously gone in right guard. Cook was wearing out all guards who came before him. Johnson-Goodwin added 18 yards. Long was helpless on the next play. The bull dogs were only 5 yards from their objective, but it seemed the hardest thing to accomplish in the world. The Tiger defense puffed up. Long had hit and missed, Turnage hit, fumbled, regained and missed. Johnson essayed to try his old standbyer—the pass. Johnson shot a pass into the outstretched arms of Harris, who fumbled when tackled. Harper dashed from behind his goal line and as quick as lightning scooped the ball up and ran 102 yards for a goal. Starr, Standing up, and piloted in three wouldbe Fisk tacklers. Fisk claimed that Harris did not fumble the ball, but it was an incomplete pass. After about two minutes of wrangling and then coaxing Fisk resumed play. Harris was replaced at end by Wilson. Kelly then kicked goal. The Tiger was now fighting mad. Starr kicked 40 to Johnson, who came back 14. A pass was grounded, a second pass went wild. Johnson made a wide sweeping end run for 15 yards, Irving nailing him. Kee Wee was hurt and Greeces went in tackle. Gentry intercepted a pass and ran 55 yards before he was forced out bounds. He scored 4 for Kelly. Kelly added 7 Kelly made 8 and Maxwell 5 for first down. Maxwell hits for 3, Gentry 2 and then Kelly 4 for touchdown. Kelly missed goal. Hostilities ceased for a while.

The players who made up the Chicago personnel were old players who have been made to think their calibre a little above par which was all right because less little doubt in our mind but that name of the greatest cage stars of America are members of this very team. But the one regrettable feature of this team's success was the seeming desire to overlook Sir Al Johnson in summing up the value of this club. Could Johnson win without these players? Were the players caring Al. Now let us see. When this season began, Chicago faced its most trying situation in many a day. Sol Butler had gone. The great plunging guard Hubbard had also turned in his uniform. Now at last the hoped for period had arrived, Johnson must do or quit. What happened? Three absolutely wrong decisions were made to breach left open by these stars and whether or not Al got results can best be observed in the fact that these youngsters were the whole team. Yes, Chicago's triumph was most certainly due to the amazing performances of these youngsters, they outshone the old guard, yes to a man. EDITORIAL PAGE 05 THE CHICAGO WHIP JOS. D. BIBB, L. L.

WE HAVE DEDICATED OURSELVES TO PUBLIC SERVICE. IS HUMOR A VIRTUE? What would infuriate the Jew, what would make the Irishman fighting mad, what would incense the Frenchman and enrage the German only makes the black man laugh. He, with his sunny soul, is able to see the comical side of every tragedy of life. The black soldier in the late war when asked if he knew what the "Over the Top" meant, answered, laughingly: "To be sure it means Good morning, Jesus." It takes a brave and undaunted soul to see the fun in a violent death. We fail to see the virtue in it. It reflects upon the intellectual development of the race. Sometimes behind a smile and disguised in a mirthless laugh is the grim determination to eradicate the evil that provoked the humor, but not so with the black man; he laughs and forgets about his troubles and passively dismisses all of his woes. Carlyle says that a man's intelligence is measured by his sensitiveness. There is no real humor in discrimination and lynchings, but the black people have found fun in it and it was they who humorously styled the lynching institution as "Judge Lynch," and sometimes refer to the rope as Miss Rope, the Judge's daughter. A great line of distinction can be drawn between patience and forbearance. One who constantly allows himself to be denied his rights is not patient; he is foolish and his forbearance is akin to idiocy. Idiots laugh, gurgle and giggle at nothing at all and the higher a race becomes in human development the more serious they become. Of course there is a difference of opinion. We, however, feel that it is time the black people were getting to the facts of life and away from the fun. FORWARD. LET'S GO! Chicago, nestling in the heart of the West, fondled on the breast of Illinois, is a wonderful city bristling with opportunities, pregnant with possibilities. It bids fair to become the metropolis of the Occident, the teeming center of Anglo-American civilization. Chicago is the real gateway to the West, the last lap of the East, the shoreland of the Great Lakes and just a night's leap from the Southland. Chicago is compelled to grow in wealth, beauty and prosperity and the humblest citizen of this great land can expand and grow with this great city. Chicago is built in a swamp and its very audacity stands in bold relief to the original design of nature. America cannot help but wonder at its phenomenal growth and its unlimited possibilities. Chicago is the coming city of this great Republic. Here the wretched may achieve happiness and succor; here the oppressed may earn freedom; here even the "half men" may be rounded into full grown humans and flush up with the increasing tread of civilization. In Chicago the lowliest of the lowly—the black men—may come into their own and win a place in the sun for themselves. America is not always going to deny the privileges of its Republican government to its dark-hued sons and daughters. When the black man catches step with the other groups, when he matches his stride with the Irish, the Jewish, the Polish and the German, then he will share in the operation of the National and State governments. Chicago is the spot for him to start from; it is the keynote of America. Hail Chicago! When Chicago springs with one prodigious leap into the glittering limelight of the world overshadowing New York, London and the other great cities the black man will flash with his own light and not with the reflected lustre of others. With its keen, analytical thinkers, with its unthwarted ambition, with its embryonic but sound financial institutions, with its powerful press and advanced pulpit, the black race in Chicago is irresistible; it will surely come into its own and Chicago will be the vantage point for its beginning. Hail Chicago. No ordinary contingencies can stave off the election of a black man to Congress from Chicago in the near future. It could be done right now but the black people are carefully manipulating their power, carefully forbearing from abusing it as was the case after the Civil War. No turn of fate can keep the black men from having at least four men of their race in seats in the Illinois Legislature. In Illinois first and from Chicago more directly shall we cease to be taxed without representation. Hail Chicago. Then let us be up and doing, giving no quarter to the drone and sluggard. Let us aim for the highest pinnacle in citizenship. Let us earn the respect of Chicago with our achievements and our industry. Let us increase our culture and polish up our racial incrustations. Chicago is offering opportunities to us all. Chicago can't help it. Seize it by the forelock. Hail Chicago. Forward. Let's go.

If there is one question that is asked by a doctor's friend who often seeks to obtain free medical or professional advice is: "Doctor what is good for a backache". The doctor who knows much about backaches will inform the questioner that he must first find the cause and treat according to the cause, as backaches are caused by a variety of conditions. To define backache as is generally expressed in the text books is as follows: "backache is usually meant lumbar pain beginning at the region of the first lumbar vertbra and extending downward, often to the sacral and coccygeal regions. The pain may be in the center of the back, along the spine, or on either one or both sides of the spine." A very common erroneous idea that some people have is that a pain in the back is always due to kidney trouble, consequently they attempt to treat themselves by taking kidney pills and applying a plaster externally. It should be remembered that very few conditions of the kidney produce any pain in the back. In determining the cause of backache it is essential to know whether or not the pain is associated with fever; has followed a convalescence from some infection; is associate dwith pain on urination or changes in the appearance of the urine; has followed a sudden strain; is aggravated by bending the body in any direction; or has any relation to menstrual or womb disturbances. A great number of backaches may also be due to fatigue and lack of balance. The strain may be produced by posture, by poor muscular balance and abnormal conditions within the abdomen, such as enlargement of the organs, enteroptosis, (falling of the viscera) and obesity (too much fat). The fatigue may result from an attitude constantly assumed in some form of occupation, such as stooping or bending, or by lifting heavy objects. There are those type of backaches that are due to uncorrected broken or fallen arches of the feet, or the continuous use of poorly fitting shoes. The pain in these cases often extends up the lower extremities to the back. Hence it can be clearly seen that the treatment of backaches should not be guesswork. First determine the cause and the treatment should follow accordingly. A few general measures may be suggested however, for temporary relief of backaches, as a rule relief is foun dby hot applicatins, in the form of hot water-bottles, electric light heat, spinal douches, etc. Massage with the hand or vibrator is also helpful. The general treatment calls for increased feeding, general massage, regulated exercise, with periods of rest. Occasionally ltonies may be indicated. THE WEEK'S BEST EDITORIAL Editorial Policy and News (Detroit Independent.) All good newspapers have editorials, but not necessarily all newspapers. News is the record of acts of men and institutions and editorials are the expressed opinions of said activities, including its own policy as a public organ. Do you see the difference? Most people charge every news story in a newspaper to the paper as its wish or opinion, especially if it is against him or his friends. If a man kills another and a paper carries the story, the paper does not necessarily approve of this by writing the story, but its opinion on the story expressed editorially will show its attitude in the matter. Many a paper is charged for an opinion on a mere news story, and remember, that what you think a paper should not print as news is just STARTED 'UNDERGROUND BAILROAD': NOW DEAD WABASH, Ind., Dec. 9—Major M. M. Laneey, who organized the "Underground railroad", by which slaves slipped across the Ohio River at Ripley, Ind., 1 sdend at his home at Foundain City.

That Liberian Loan lies as dead and destroyed, but sometimes dead things tell tales. In Chicago they recently dug up some dead and decaying bodies and found traces of arsenic. It seems that there is something ominous as well as odious in this Liberian Loan tangle. Pat Harrison, Senator from Mississippi, would not, even with all of his hatred for black people, accuse Scott, Lewis, Cobb, Houston and Lyons of getting six hundred thousand dollars out of it unless he was tipped off and was sure of his ground. Harrison is too oily to lay himself open to a slander and libel suit. Pat got his dope from somebody and that somebody was a SOREHEAD BLACK MAN. Murder will out and the Liberian Loan was murdered. Who did it? Maybe we know? Anyway, we will put up a certified check in escrow that we can name the guilty party. Dirty and despisable is trickery but more so a traitor who betrays his own. Ahem. Old Siki has spilled the beans. You keep on kicking and abusing your pet dog until he will show his teeth, snap and finally bite you. That is what Siki, the black battler, has done to his persecutors. While we hold no brief for his foolish escapades, we know that Siki has done no more than John L. Sullivan and the rest did. Siki now opens up with a story that he was bribed to lose to Carpentier, the white champ, but Siki double-crossed the lot the same as Jack Johnson double-crossed Jeffries. Now somebody else has got in Dutch along with the humiliated Senegalese. Siki did right. A squealer is all right in his place and his place is where he is cornered.

ONE HOUSTON RIOTER IS GRANTED FREEDOM Leavenworth, Kans., Dec. 9. —The first release, either by pardon or parole, of any of the 65 soldiers confined in the federal penitentiary for participation in the Houston race riot four years ago, was made Sunday, when Ward Lindsey, under a 10-year sentence was admitted to parole. A telegram received from a department of Justice received by Warden Biddle, stating that Lindsay's parole papers have been signed and returned to Leavenworth. THE SK --- Snappy Thoughts By E. F. S. It would hardly be appropriate for Truman Newberry to send a message of condolence to Mrs. Felton because of her short term in the House of Representatives. It is announced that Charlie Chaplin and Pola Negri are engaged. Seems that Charlie is going in for real serious stuff, matrimony. Unemployment must be something awful in Europe. Some fellow took the job of being Sultan of Turkey. "Oil Project Nets Thousands," says a headline. Suckers, of course. Mrs. Felton is mistaken about being the "first old woman" to sit in the Senate—there was Tom Watson. One way to torture your wife at this season of the year is continually to complain about being hard up when she has her mind set on getting a fur coat. It is a pleasure to some men to join the lodge. Riding the goat is so much different from being the goat at home. The man who said one-half the world doesn't know what the other half does, didn't have a wife who belonged to a club.

Cotter, Assistant United States District Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois and formerly Assistant Attorney General of the State of Illinois, delivered to a large and appreciative audience a very interesting and instructive address on "The Proposed New Constitution of Illinois." In a clear and logical manner, Mr. Cotter analyzed the sections of the proposed new constitution which are applicable to our group, comparing those sections with the similar sections in the constitution of our present country. The speaker showed that the sections of the proposed new constitution relating to the Bill of Rights, Representation in the State Legislature, Taxation, and the Judiciary were no improvement on the same sections in the present constitution, and in some cases that the adoption of certain of these sections would be inimical to the interests of our group. The speaker was introduced by Attorney William L. Dawson. Excellent musical numbers were rendered by Miss Cora Henry, pianist, Little Miss Burtelle Burton, vocalist, and Mrs. Evan Trent, soprano. The next meeting of the Lyecem will be on Sunday December 17, 1922, at 5:15 P.M. Dates of program will be announced in next week's issue of this paper.

The postmaster says, however, that such seals or stickers should not be placed on the address side of mail. Second Baptist Church, Dixon, Illinois. Rev. W. Hawkins, Pastor.

By Henry M. Stanley. Published by Charles Scribner's Sons, New York City, Price $1.75. Postage 10c extra. Some books are so old that they become new. This story of African adventure was written by Stanley in 1873, and it has delighted boys and ports of England and America ever since. As Christmas time approaches and the question of Christmas gifts for the youngsters looms up before us, it is worth while reviewing this old-time tale. Stanley wrote the story shortly after his famous expedition in search of Livingstone. The scene is laid at Uitata, near Lake Tanganika, and concerns two boys, one Selim, a Mohammedan, native of Zanzibar, the other Kaluhi, a prince among the Uitatas. Selim has been gently reared but is taken by his father when a boy of fourteen on a trip to the mainland of Africa to escape for gold and ivory. There his father and all but four boys and two black slaves are killed in an attack by the native Africans. Selim among the others is taken captive and endures such torture that he runs into the forest to die. Here he is found by Kaluhi and the two black slaves of his father. Kaluhi promises to aid Selim and the two boys, attracted to one another from the start, go through the ceremonial of blood brotherhood. After this we have most distracting adventures with hipotamus, crocodiles, and pretty nearly every animal we could ourselves conjure up in Africa. Kaluhi's turn to suffer comes in and in the end he is rescued by Selim and all ends well. I have said that this is as delightful reading for boys and girls today as when it was written. Perhaps I should modify this. The style seems very flowery and the story drawn out as I read it. But children are less critical of style than adults and more ready. I have often found, to read long paragraphs of description than are their olders. Stanley tells us that everything in the story might have happened and that much did happen, just as he tells it. It was written partly to invoke men's indignation against the slave trade as carried on by the Mohammedans, and it should have succeeded, for Kaluhi falls into the hands, of the slaves and the reader is filled with indignation and excitement for his final escape to freedom. Colored boys and girls should care especially for this book. Kaluhi is a hero whom Stanley evidently loves and draws with fidelity. With his head dress of three tall ostrich plumes, his bright, cager eyes, his little body, his hounding step, like the antelope; what child can ever forget him? He gives one a sense of happiness at the wild, free life of the black boy amid surroundings of unparalleled beauty. This is Africa before the white man has touched it, and though it is a tride savage, it is full of beauty and of historic deeds. Mrs. L. Tittman died Oct. 13, 1922. She had been ill a number of years, yet she never became discouraged. She always had faith in God and felt that was sufficient for all things. Even while passing through the dark shadows of death, she sang and rejoiced the God of her salvation. She leaves to mourn her death, a bereaved husband, and an adopted daughter.

QUARTERLY CONFERENCE In the business session of the first quarterly conference for this conference year held in Carters Temple last Monday night it developed that this church had enjoyed a most remarkable increase in membership and more than $1,000 have been raised and reported.
