BISHOP McFADDEN Of the Great Catholic Church Returns to St. James Forum as a Speaker—Questions. Auxiliary Bishop James A. McFadden of the Cleveland Catholic Diocese filled a return engagement to speak at St. James forum Sunday afternoon. The bishop spoke there, a year ago. Reversing the usual program of addressing the audience first and then inviting questions, Bishop McFadden was so overwhelmed with questions that there was no opportunity to deliver the formal address. On the suggestion of the pastor, the bishop was given a rising vote of thanks by the audience. The bishop said that he was pleased to have made a return engagement and that he was happy to outline Catholic principles to those of other faiths whenever the opportunity offered. The bishop also offered the closing prayer. HEAR! HEAR!! The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING The Rounder notices that one thousand children of Cleveland will be given a week's outing at the city's fresh air camp on the Cooley farm at Warrensville, next summer. At least 100 of our children should be among this number. Our parents and others will please take notice. Many of our people of Cléveland will recall Harry Y. Richardson, a former clerk in the local postoffice who several years ago went East to Harvard Theological department to study for the ministry. This month's "Opportunity" (magazine) carries a very interesting discussion by him on the topic of "Wonder where Harry found the "new Negro." The Rounder has been looking for him ever since he first heard of him. The Housewives Leagues in the vicinity of E. 79th and E. 85th Sts. could direct their attention, with much profit to our people in this community, to the chain-stores in that vicinity that refuse to give employment to any of our people regardless of the fact that from 50 to 90% of their trade is furnished by Afro-American. This same suggestion is good for the Federation of Women's and other male and mixed organizations in the East End. There are many of these stores located on Cedar, Central and Quincy Aves, where our people are most numerously populated. An average of three extra trips each rush hour have been added to the Cedar Ave. line, and a 60-day trial of 12-minute time on the Central Ave. line has been granted by the Cleveland Railway Co., but no improvement for the Scovill Ave. line it seems. The foregoing is undoubtedly granted as a result of Councilman George's resolution of some weeks ago. The new schedule for Central Ave. will doubtless be issued, Feb. 16, or very soon thereafter. Our minister would urge people to patronize the Central Ave. line so the twelve-minute schedule can be retained after the 60-day trial. There has been sixteen-minute service on that line ever since last July, and it is simply terrible! Among our callers, the first of the week, was big Joe Weaver for whom $15,000 from the state is being sought by Representative Gillespie because of Joe's 25 months' imprisonment, 22 of which were in the death house at the Ohio penitentiary, the innocent of the crime charged against him. Joe, it seems, was in Atlanta, Ga., where he had gone, after his release from the "Pen," to visit his aged mother when the late President Warren G. Harding arrived there, years ago, from Birmingham, Ala., where he had delivered an address that dislodged his anger and made him speak made by a Chief Executive of this nation, in many years. Joe tells the Rounder that he stood in the great crowd, not far from President Harding who was talking in the open to a large assembly of Georgians, mostly residents of Atlanta, and distinctly heard Mr. Harding score the South for its mistreatment of the "Negro," saying that it was this that had driven and was driving thousands of them into the North. Joe also says that he saw secret service men with the President repeatedly stop prejudiced southerners, mostly "crackers," who were endeavoring to drive "Negroes" back into the crowd all over the places. All of which is real news. The Rounder since northern daily newspapers were not furnished this information. THE WEAVER CASE The Result of K. K. K. Prejudice—Love on the Future of Cleveland —The Speakers. Speaking before a good-sized audience at St. John's A. M. E. church, Sunday afternoon, John W. Love, Cleveland Press columnist, asserted the future of Afro-American worker was definitely dled up with that of the white worker. "When boh times come along," he said, "there will be no discrimination between races. White and colored will share alike as the demand for labor enables all able-bodied men to find employment." Answering a question on the future of the city, the Press columnist said that the expansion of Cleveland was problematical. Qualifying this statement, he said that the future of the city depended, in part, on the rapidly falling ore deposits in the Lake Superior district. After Love's talk, a resume of the Doris Weaver case was made by Hon. Harry E. Davis, Charles W. White, and State Representative Chester K. Gillespie. Davis said that the exclusion of Miss Weaver from the Ohio State University home economics house did not represent a cross-section of student opinion, but was an instance of the university's intolerance (prejudice). IN APPRECIATION. New York City, Feb. 2, '33. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor, Gazette, Cleveland, O. Mear dear Mr. Smith:—We wish to thank you very much for the straight-forward editorial contained in your paper of Jan. 28, '33, urging the citizens of Ohio to write to Senator Fess and request him to support the Wagner resolution. We know you are aware of the congestion in the U. S. Senate. Nevertheless, the N. A. A. C. P. is pressing for the passage of the Wagner resolution which will cause a Senate investigation to be made of the virtual slavery now existing on the federal-financed Mississippi flood control project. The N. A. A. C. P. is deeply indebted to the Gazette and to our other papers through the country, for their hearty co-operation in presenting the findings, of our investigators, in their news columns and agitating for correction of the evils in their editorial columns. Very sincerely yours, Roy Wilkins, Assistant Secretary. DOINGS OF THE RACE. Duke Ellington and his band are scheduled to make a European tour soon. The wife of Atty, Edwin H. Morris of Chicago, well-known Illinois legislator, years ago, died, Jan. 27, '33. Rev. Adam Clayton Powell, Jr., of N. Y. City is to marry Miss Isabell Washington, well-known actress, it is said. The great play, "Green Pastures," will be seen in Cleveland for two weeks in April, and may spend Holy Week here. Mrs. Fannie Styles (deceased), of Savannah, Ga., left all of her property to three women (white) who had befriended her in her old age, the she had a sister and a number of nieces and nephews. Hubert T. Delany has resigned as an assistant U. S. attorney for the southern district of New York state and entered the law partnership of Mintzer, Todarelli, Kleid and Delany, all former U. S. district attorneys. The Hon. Frederick Douglass, decidedly our greatest leader to date, was unanimously nominated for the Vice-Presidency of the U. S. at a convention of the Equal Rights League, meeting in Appollo hall, N. Y. City, in 1872. After two years of intensive study of our churches in 12 cities and four rural counties—a total of 609 urban and 185 rural churches—Rev. Benj. E. Mays and Rev. Jos. W. Nicholson, sociologists, report for the Institute of Social and Religious Research, N. Y. City, that our Church, controlled by Afro-Americans, is self-supporting. A white Communist colony in the Bronx, New York City, recently evicted a tenant for non-payment of rent and then cut the tires on his truck so he was unable to move his furniture, until a Tammany lawyer came along and helped him. This will be interesting news to the Negroes in Chicago and Detroit, whom the Communists used in a vain attempt to halt eviction of tenants by capitalists — Chicago Defender. Group No. 2 of E. M. Zion Baptist church has planned a splendid program in observance of a "Negro Archbishop" to come to town, at 3:30 p. m. with George Brown of the City Civil Service Commission, as principal speaker. The public is cordially invited. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS WHO ARE FLEECING THE MASSES OF OUR PEOPLE IN THIS CENTURY, SAYS PROF. WOODSON.

If not, in what single circumstance are we different from the rest of mankind? What variety is there in our organization? What inferiority of art in the fashioning of our bodies? What imperfection in the faculties of our minds? Has not a Negro eyes? Has not a Negro hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions?—fed with the same food; hurt with the same weapons; subject to the same diseases; healed by the same means; warmed and cooled by the same summer and winter man? If you prick as is, do we not blee? If you prick as is, do we not? Are we not exposed to all the same wants? Do we not feel all the same sentiments? Are we not capable of all the same exertions, and are we not entitled to all the same men as other men?" The Negroes and poor whites of the eighteenth century usually worked in co-operation against common foes, the exploiters and enslavers. In the twentieth century these two oppressed elements the teaching of race hate so that they may unite, and present both seem to have the wise ought to be sufficient. What is the advantage of having power which you never use? While the eighteenth century Negroes, although few in number, because most of them were slaves, devised every means to put to good use all the resources at hand, the Negroes of the twentieth century are doing practically nothing but worrying the white man for a hand-out. The Negroes of our day instead of using the ballot as a weapon of defense have donated it to the corrupt Republican machine. Instead of using their economic power they have enriched foreigners on the corners of their streets and in their alleys. Instead of finding some virtue in their own ranks and organizing themselves for co-operative effort they have learned to admire others so thoroughly that in the present situation there is little moral strength right after right organization taking up the battles of the race, therefore, has as many Negroes as whites to fight. The worst sort of criticism I have ever heard of the N. A. A. C. P. came from Negroes who were afraid that the struggle for equal rights might interfere with their graft. Carter G. Woodson. A CLEVELANDER Has an Interesting Article in February Opportunity—Progress in Cuba—"Emperor Jones" Criticised, Etc. Rev. Harry V. Richardson, former resident of Cleveland, discusses "The New Negro and Religion" in the February issue of Opportunity. Henry B. Jones writes "Jungle Blood," a dramatic story of a conflict between an Afro-American and an African. Arthur Schomburg, curator of the Schomburg collection of "Negro" literature at the Harlem branch of the New York Public library, writes of his trip to Cuba in search of books and reveals the remarkable progress of the Afro-Cuban in literature and the Fine Arts. The premiere of the jazz opera, "Emperor Jones," and the impersonation of the "Emperor" by Mr. Lawrence Tibbett, the great baritone soloist of the Metro艺术学院, comes in for some critical criticism at the hands of Harry Keelan. Robert T. Ford of Ballanty is represented by three poems, T. Wingate Todd, eminent teacher at Western Reserve University, reviews a book, "The Anthropometry of the Afro-American." Visited Lincoln Study Washington, D. C.—The executive committee of our National Bankers Association has been invited to visit the Lincoln study in the White House, Feb. 13, but permission for ceremonies in celebration of Lincoln's birthday are banned. It is explained at the White House that ceremonies of private associations have never been permitted. The great war president signed the emancipation proclamation in this study. President Hoover will be away on Feb. 13. Of course.

We sincerely trust our people of Cleveland will give President R. R. Wright of Wilberforce University a real reception at St. Johns A. M. E. church, Sunday and Monday. He is making a determined effort to save the institution which should be helped all possible. --- Indiana, the worse ku klux klan- ridden state in the North, has the old Georgia anti - intermarriage law which carries a penitentiary penalty for all who run afoul of it. A lad of the race and a girl (white), reared in a small town of that state, were married, recently, and as a result are facing a term in the Indiana pen- tentiary for violating the ridiculous old law which ought to be wiped from the statutes of that state pro- nto. Here is a job for the two Democ- ratic members of the Indiana State Assembly, elected last fall. MISSTATEMENTS. Ohio State University officials in their brief, filed in the State Supreme Court, last Saturday afternoon, replying to the Doris Weaver charges of race discrimination at the institution, denied the same, adding that they "neither violated the provisions of the state nor federal constitution," in the Weaver case. The university authorities, according to the daily newspapers of last Saturday, contend that Miss Weaver was "offered a room" in the Home-Economics school-building and that she "refused to accept." All of which (their statements and contention) are untrue. As a matter of fact, Ohio State University officials violated the Ohio Civil Rights Law when they offered Miss Weaver "one side of the Home-Management House in to reside (alone) while pursuing her Home-Economics studies," at the same time holding "the other of various races. This is color or race discrimination, pure and simple, which is expressly forbidden by our Ohio Civil Rights law. Miss Weaver was not "offered a room in the building" according to President George W. Rightmire's statement to the Ohio House of Representatives judiciary committee, week before last. Even if she was and students of other races were not given "a room in the building" to themselves, still it would be unlawful race discrimination because all other students of different races were not so treated. Authorities of public institutions maintained by the tax-payers of the state of Ohio cannot do this sort of thing and still be within the law of the state. Miss Wilhelmina Styles, who graduated from O. S. U., last year, was also discriminated against. It was the cases of the Misses Weaver and Styles that gave rise to the strong protest of the student organizations of the university which we published, and have kept standing in The Gazette for several weeks. RETAIN DIRECT PRIMARY. We greatly regret our inability to attend the Ohio Senate elections committee hearing, Thursday of this week at Columbus, on the pending proposal to abolish the primary in Ohio. If these measures pass—one in the Senate and one in the House—any and all independent groups of voters such as ours are thru in Ohio public affairs—as to a voice. This same proposal passed the Senate two years ago—by a vote of 27 to 2—while the people were sound asleep, but never was able to pass the House of Representatives. This time, they are being warned of the impending evil. The move to submit the repeal of the direct primary amendment and go back to the old "convention" days is an insult to every sincere voter in Ohio, regardless of the complaint that too few people attend the pri- mary, at times. The people's primary in Ohio was adopted, Sept. 3, 1912, by 166,000 majority at a special election, with only men voting. Less than seven years ago—in 1926—it was voted on again (the proposal now up) and the primary was retained by a vote of 743,313 to 405,152. A majority of 338,000, in a general election with men and women voting. Even more dangerous to the people, however, is House Bill No. 56, introduced by Representative Chester K. Gillespie of this city, providing for a pre-primary convention of delegates who will nominate the tickets in state, district and county. If passed, it becomes effective in ninety days, without the people having any voice in the matter. This bill does not lessen election expense in any way. The intelligent and thoughtful voters of this state will punish severely the persons and party responsible for the repeal of the direct primary laws. LIBERIA'S PLIGHT. The Finance Corporation of America, which has headquarters in this city, extended a loan, in 1926, of five million dollars to Liberia, West Africa, which is seeking further credit of a sum "under $250,000." More than two and a quarter million dollars of the five million loan have been issued. We are told that failure to meet the terms of agreement, between Liberia and the Firestone Tire and Rubber Co. of Akron, O., and the Firestone Plantations Co. which is growing rubber trees in Liberia, has resulted in no new installments of money being provided since 1930. The American government has stepped into the breach and is using its power to force President Edwin Barclay and Liberia to live up to the alleged terms of the agreement, on the ground that the little "Black Republic" is "blocking American participation in the international efforts to assist Liberia." In five weeks, according to Washington advises, the State Department has made "repeated representations" to the African republic's rulers against a series of actions taken by the administration of President Edwin Barclay in violation of the agreement. American citizens, it seems, are claiming prior rights in Liberia which are not being "met in full." Therefore, this government's warning of a protest against the extension of further financial aid to Liberia "from whatever source." The Finance Corporation of America, having headquarters in Cleveland, suggests that it may be a "Firestone" organization and our government's activity in the matter suggests that it is being used by the Firestone organizations to promote their private business in Liberia. If this be true, our government is going entirely too far in the matter, to say the least. There are 50,000 acres of rubber lands in that country now capable of production and another 50,000 cleared and partly planted. The Firestone enterprises have expanded to include a commercial raido hookup, a trading company and a branch bank Prime Sport News Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette U. track star, passed up the recent Melrose games in New York City to be with his team in the contest with Notre Dame, last week Friday night. One fight critic paid Willie "Gorilla" Jones a great tribute after his recent knockout victory over Sammy Slaughter. He said "Jones is so man he knew exactly what Slaughter was going to do before Sammy knew it himself." And it seemed just that way. Our National Baseball league will meet in Indianapolis, next Wednesday. Oscar Charleston, for many years one of the greatest players the game has known and still the peer of first sackers, is wanted for this season by the management of the local team, a new entry to the league. Owner Benj. Mason said that Oscar would be an ideal man for manager and first base. Charleston is under contract to the Pittsburgh Craw-fords. Eddie Tolan's filing clerkship is in the office of the registrar of deeds at Detroit. BOYDSTON POST NEWS. Lemuel T.

OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Against the Mob and Lynch-Murder-Three Years' Work of a Member of the Race-Also His Ohio Civil Rights Law. Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have also enacted more violent or violence laws, which are copies of our Ohio law, for northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows: Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob. 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution.

A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of section 6279. The term "serious injury" for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such injury as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the injury is made (93 v. 161). Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury is incurred by a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars (93 v. 162. 5). Section 6282. The legal representative, of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor surviving such person, such sum shall be distributed among the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6283.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of the Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio *Civil Rights law* which the editor enacted into law a member of the 75th Congress and Assistant Secretary. 1894. The *General Code of Ohio*. Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts.

Dear Friend:—I have read the latest copy of The Gazette through and after reading it, I can truthfully say: It is worth its weight in gold! I admire true manhood—a man who, seeing injustice and oppression, dares, within the limits of the law, to expose it, if possible, smite it. You and I have frequently, during the fifty years since the birth of The Gazette, been, as the Scotch would say, like two McNells, but, when I find a man, such as you, who consistently, and persistently, thru half a century, puts his race foremost in his life struggle, I take off my hat to him, as being a true friend of our class. Long life to you and The Old Reliable' Gazette. Yours for the right, John P. Green. (Former Member, Ohio State Senate.) IS IT ANY USE TO CON-TEND FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimination, are willing to lighten today's fight at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say, "Negroes are not worthy of equal rights, they are by nature without self-respect and are not respected. The world respects only those who resent and resist proscriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the ablitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt—Boston (Mass.) Guardian. THE MAY COMPANY 1. They're Spring Styles! 2. They're Brand New! 3. They're All Washable! 4. They're Very Durable! Sale!

Ee Galata nico: HE prince of Wales recently ‘opened the splendid new $200, 000 extension of the Taslorian institution at ‘Oxford univer- sity, thus adding another unit to the already pretentious group of buildings that make up one of England's famous institutions of learning. Oxford 1s, perhaps, the best known in America of all foreign universities, ‘owing to the Rhodes scholarships, granted since 1904 under the will of the Inte Cecil J. Rhodes, South Afri- can magnate. Each year $2 Amerl- can college students, usually gradu- ates, are selected on the basis of their records in American colleges and a Personal interview, and are awarded &@ three years’ scholarship at an Ox- ford college. An equal number are selected from the British cominon- ‘wealths and the colonies of the em- pire, In all, about 200 Rhodes schol- rs are in residence at Oxford each year. ‘Rhodes, who believed that eventual- Jy all the English-speaking peoples of the world would make common cause, hoped through these scholarships to produce lenders for his dream. ‘One hears unsympathetic observers at Oxford refer to the American Rhodes scholars at the university as “the last of the aristocrats,” implying that they, too, often band together and Keep themselves aloof from their fel- low undergraduates. A difference in ‘age and different heritage of interests, hobbies, and traditions do make fu- sion, even orientation, difficult. Most of the Rhodes scholars with whom one becomes acquainted at Ox- ford are of a fine type—friendly, help- ful, a bit reserved, as perhaps might Become a national of another country, ‘and studiously inclined, Some of the American Rhodes scholars have been elected to Oxford's. most exclusive so- cial and literary clubs and societies, ‘and most of them have enviable schol- astic and athletle standings during thelr residence at the university. ‘The Rhodes {dea may be said to be ful- filled to the extent that mutual under- standing has been fostered by the con- tact and conflict of youthful ideas of representative members of the Eng- Ush-speaking nations, Why Americans Like Oxford. ‘Twenty-five years have elapsed since the first Rhodes scholars arrived at Oxford. On the evening of July 5, 1929, a considerable number of that first group attended the trustees’ din- ner in the Hall of Rhodes house, on South Parks rond. Nearly all the 220 guests were old Rhodes scholars. ‘The largest number were from the United States, but there were some who had come, for this event, all the way from such distant lands as South Africa and Australia, Stanley Baldwin pre- idea and the prince of Wales, as principal speaker, proposed the health of the Rhodes scholars. In addition to Rhodes scholars, many other Americans are attracted to Oxford by the unrivaled resources for research afforded by the Bodleian brary, and also because the atmo- sphere of the city is conducive to it rary and academic work, Oxford 1s &@ mecea for American college profes- sors and instructors on sabbatical leave. In contrast to American schools, Ox- ford's lectures hiaye relatively little importance. No attendance records fare kept and an undergraduate might Possibly go through his entire course without attending a single one. ‘The real check is the tutor, to whom the undergraduate is immediately assigned ‘upon his arrival and to whom he must report at least once a week for as- signments, recitations and Informal Giscussions. ‘The tutorial system al- Jows for much greater development of a student's natural bent and indi- viduality, but {t is practical only where the number of students is not Jarge. The average number of stu- dents at an Oxford college is about 200, In the regular course of events, examinations do not come until near the end of the second sear of resi- ence, and everything depends upon the showing made in them. ‘The teaching stat at Oxford con- sists of university professors, readers, lecturers and demonstrators, number- ing more than 100, and about 300 col- lege fellows, tutors and lecturers. ‘As Is the case In Ameri¢an univer. sities, there are faculties leading to specific degrees, the principal ones at Oxford being theology, law, medicine, Uterae humaniores, modern history, medieval and modern languages, orl- ental languages, and natural science. Both the colleges and the university give lectures, and each co-operates to Promote academic harmony and eff ¢leney. Members of any college are at liberty to attend any lectures, uni- versity or collegiate, which thelr tu- tors recommend and without the pay- ment of special fees. But the academle, vital and funda- ‘mental as it 1s, Is really the reverse side of the medal. Oxford 1s more than classrooms, and degrees, and rules and regulations, and their ex: ceptions. F. D. How no doubt exag- gerates when he says: “For beauty ‘and for romance the first place among all the cities of the United Kingdom must be given to Oxford.” But one must search far to find an equal of the mellow beauty of its winding streets and its classic bulldings, or of the pastoral charm of. the meadows and walks along the Cherwell and the Isis, or of the romantic associations of the place, from Alfred the Great's day to the World war. Beauty Along High Street. Walking down High street, affec tionately known in Oxford as “the High,” one catches some of this feet- ing of beauty and romance in the long curved fronts of the colleges and churches and other stately buildings which border it; for High street is Oxford and, incidentally, one of the most beautiful streets in the worl). Beginning at Carfax, the center of town, it curves gentiy for half a mile or more to the Magdalen bridge, unfolding vistas of spires, and stout stone walls, and moss-covered cor: nices, and towers, and courtyards, and ‘a thousand and one things, each more lovely than the last, until one begins to regret that such delight cannot last and must dwindle at the end to some mediocrity. But at the end of the High ts re served the most charming view of all. Rising gracefully from the buildings of Magdalen college is an exquisite Gothic bell tower, from which each year a Seventeenth century eucharis- tle hymn is sung at sunrise on the first of May. Direetly opposite are the verdant, spacious grounds of the Botanic gar- den, the oldest in England, and, to close the picture, beyond is the River Cherwell, with Its screen of bordering elms and willows and the stately arched bridge which carries the High toward London town. ‘Some prefer to reverse the picture just drawn, and it 1s charming the other way. But Carfax, with its noisy bustle and confusion,-brings one just f bit too suddenly to earth. It is bet- ter to linger on Magdalen bridge, where one may drink deep of scenes that belong to another world—truly a world of romance and beauty. ‘There is yet another spot in Oxford where one may feel this age-old un- reality. Not far from the High ts a round-domed building (the dome ts the entire building). known as the Rad- eliffe Camera, the reading room of the Bodleian library. A small fee will admit one toa stairway which winds up and up to a circular out-door gal- lery far above the street. View From Radcliffe Camera. Below and all around ts spread a veritable forest of stone turrets, tow ers, arches, battlements, spires, and delicate tracery. Massive pleces of masonry they undoubtedly are, but from this height they seem light and airy, exquisitely delicate and grace- ful.

Haphazard as was Oxford's growth, there is a symmetry in her architec- ture which many another city of less spontaneous origin might envy. Beyond the colleges, to the east, 1s the green-forested slope of Heading- ton hill; to the south, perhaps a bit dim in the mist which rises from the meadows along the Isis, is Boars hill, nearest of the gently rolling Berkshire Downs; to the west are the rallroads and the commercial districts; and to the north are the principal college gardens and the university parks ‘A short cut from the Radcliffe camera through the old Divinity school leads to the Bodleian library, the granddad of all the English it praries in the world.

If any inspiration is needed to lure the woman who makes her own clothes into a do-it-now frame of mind, it may be found in the aisles and aisles of enchanting spring materials now on display throughout all fashionland, A significant fact about the new fabric showings 1s the prominence given to cottons which are that amazingly nov- el and chic as to be almost unbeliev- able. ‘So completely have some of the new- er cottons managed to conceal their identity, one has almost to look at their labels or inquire of the sales- person to make sure that they are what they are, and not perhaps fine silk or woolen as they appear to be. Almost any effect is possible with nov- elty cotton yarns as they are now be- ing durene-processed," often worked with rayon strands into boucle or soft-twisted finishes, or with silken sheen or perfectly delustered, as the case may be. ‘The reign of cotton weaves in the textile realm should prove very en- couraging to the amateur seamstress with whom the thought of handling and cutting into costly silk or woolen all but brings on an attack of “stage fright,” for although the new and smart cotton weaves are high style and “look like a million,” they are in re- ality Inexpensive enough to afford any ambitious home-sewing woman to ex- periment with them without fear and trembling.

It appears almost dally In some new form, in the studios of the well-known designers—as a half-length evening wrap, as a full-length sports over-all, fas an accessory to the afternoon dress, as the collar on a town coat. It is made in velvet, tweed, cordu- roy, satin—practically every tmagin- able material. ‘As Mainbocher indicates in a good many of his new spring clothes, the eape looks its youngest when it Is short.

Coral Velvets A STRONG PROTEST Relative to Privileges to be Accorded Gore mele rapeens ee see rersity.—The In Dacca Pik ang ath and The Ohio State’ University Inter- Racial Council takes occasion to point at the following situation relative to the admittance of Miss Doris Weaver, a senior student in the College of Agriculture, to the Home Manage- ment House which the University maintains as a training center for the course in Household Management Miss Weaver registered in the Lab- oratory course in Home Management for the winter quarter of the present school year. In this course, “students live for one half of a quarter in the Home Management House and carry tho responsibility of home-makini under conditions approximately those of a modern home.” (Quotation from Catalogue of the College of Agricul- ture 1932-1923, pg. 60.) Reserva- tions for residence are made in ad- vance. Following these University requirements, Miss Weavér applied for admission last winter quarter. She received a letter of acceptance on Sept. 26, 1932. On Oct. 4, 1932, she was asked to return this communica- tion to the office of the Department of Home Economics. These are the facts of the case. Evidently dt was found out that Miss Weaver was of African descent and her acceptance to the Home Management House was therefore cancelled. Last year Miss Wilhelmina Styles was refused admittance for the same reason. No special requirements as to scholarship, or personality are known to exist as criteria of admittance; except certain prerequisite courses which Miss Weaver has taken, From the above it appears that refusal of admittance of Miss Weaver into the Home Management House Is a case of flagrant race discrimination by whomever passes upon such appli- cants, In calling attention to this situation the purpose of the Inter- Racial Council is to PROTEST, that at ‘a University supported by tax funds of which 325,000 Afro-American citizens of Ohio pay their share, such discrimination should be permitted to prevail. If anywhere, on the cam~ pus of this University race prejudice ‘of any kind, whether under open or tacit sanction, ought not exist. ‘Wherefore’ the undersigned stu- dent organizations, as members of the Inter-Racial Council, wish to register their disapproval and_pro- test upon the action in the case of Miss Doris Weaver.
