By C. F. RICHARDSON.
Since the board of directors of Emancipation Park was so bitterly opposed to the late Juneteenth celebration, and since all the park trustees are not the board's captain Dare Burney, who had to be there or get a can tied to him, why did not this great, glorious and glorious board take charge of the park and conceive a plan for the day? Day celebration on the 4th of July? Why rent the park for $25.00 on a day that the entire citizenry should use and enjoy the park like they did on the 4th of July? Where is their consistency and where are they headed? There are two hold-over members on the board that The Informer has the power to take over the park but they are doing themselves, their friends, their race and even their community a grave injustice by remaining on the board as it is presently constituted and operated. The recent city hall apothecaries (in number) have been nested with both extraordinary, plenipotentiary, absolute and invocable power and that even should the board have the power to take action taken or modus operandi, their wishes be over-ridden. In fact, one of these recent appointees has made the remark that he has the power to take action and will wishes of the other members of the board, if their opinions and ideas conflict with his and his "bases," and that if they do not like it, they can take action and will wishes of the other members. The informer has nothing against any member on the board; most of them are the personal friends and acquaintances of this editor; but they have nothing and duty to the public is needed.
To tell the truth without any sugar coating, the colored people need some knowledge of the directors of Emancipation Park and the history of the town to be a reference to and reflection upon both civil rights, city and social reform. More anon. Selah!

The baseball game between the faculty team of Prairie View and the Houston Colored Commercial Club aggregation, held on Tuesday, the University of C. Y.

The contest was won by the college team who cheered midsplays with as much gusto as good plays. But midsplays were few and far between, and, as Dean Rowe and at supper after the game, "I have paid H to see many of the college players," when a few midsplays this afternoon, which very aptly summarized and described the contest between these two clubs.
Prof. John R. Griggs was on the mound for the college professors, and an assistant professor, while a few midsplays and big bats of "murderers" row" of the C. C. C. C.

Perhaps one of the most striking examples of what push and energy, coupled with brains and business ability, will do is found in the phenomenal growth of the N. A.

Six colored Americans, twice sentenced by the courts of this state to be electricated, after twice being convicted of murder in connection with the so-called Elaine "insurrection" of 1919, were at liberty.

Recovering from their bewilderment the six with attendant relatives and attorneys climbed into automobiles and headed to the little Ark to provide the night as they pleased for the first time since three and a half years, when they were arrested and charged with murder. The case resulted in the death of a large number of white persons and several colored people. A recent opinion of the Arkansas Supreme Court directed the dismissal of the case, and the presentation of defense counsel, which asserted that two terms of court in Lee County, where their third trial was held, had been brought to trial.

| A FINE LEGAL POINT RAISED.
In reversing the case of six of the alleged Elaine colored “riot-
ers,” the supreme court upheld a former decision rendered when
jour Attorney Wilford H. Smith won his celebrated case years ago
in the cause styled Seth Carter versus the State of Texas. This
was the first case ever argued and won by a race lawyer from Tex-
a8 before that august body.
1m handing down its decision then, as in the Arkansas ease, the
highest legal tribunal in the country held that, where colored men
‘were competent, qualified and worthy of doing jury service, but
were excluded and discriminated against by the jury commission-
ers in selecting the panel, the question ofa fair tral of the colored
‘man was an issue; and that since colored men were discriminated
jagninst and excluded from jary service, no fair trial was obtained
by the convicted race man and the-case was reversed and new
hearing or trial ordered.
This is one point that lawyers defendi colored intrac-
torn and vnsfrs ifthe ln Sonatas sot Sosa et ae

C.C.C.-P.V. Game----
(Continued from Page 1.)
one really great catch, while Dr. L. M. Mitchell, on the micellite, did his job of coaching the carriers, did his part on the bench coaching and counseling the players. C. F. Richardson, right field, agile and carried off batting honors, batting. 600 getting three hits out of five trips to the plate, beams, benders and twists with much ease. "Doc" Homer E. McCoy was arribed in-chef assistance by "Speed Ball" Martin, whose bad decisions forced his retirement. "All roads led to Bone," was paraphrased Tuesday, for judging by the number of cars that left Houston and the large number of Houstonians who took in the game, all roads led to Pribrie View. After the game the P. V. team issued a challenge to the team for a club city during next month, to be played at the state school.
After the game every visitor, as well as players, partook of a very palatable supper, prepared by that prince of entertainers at the college campus in the United States, who always know how to make to make long to return to P. V., by serving the inner man with some real, honest-to-goodness "eat." If you double it, visit P. V., or ask Sam Steneworth, who was a student of the campus and was still on the campus when the last car departed for Houston.) All the Houstonians enjoyed themselves immensely and as their favorite food, the returned home feeling rather cheaty. When it comes to entertaining visitors Principal Orlean Profe, Dean Rowe, Stewart Holland, Profs. Buchanan, Holly, Ellen, Evans and others occasionally occupies and enjoys pleasant and enjoyable.
P. V.'S SUMMER SCHOOL.
It was our good pleasure to look in on and say "Howd it" to the large sum of money invested in industrial and Industrial College Tuesday night at euphemia, and, really, it was an inspiration to see such a large number of eskenazi learner attention at this campus information, information and enlightenment. We learned from those in charge of the school that Prakrie Vive has the ability to teach us how to school for our people in the world
which is covering a lot of territory, but is nevertheless true. Here are the cold and stubborn students of women already enrolled in the summer school; 100 men; 115 men in the federal vocational department; giving a total enrollment around 800. There are 182 teachers and employees, all of whom go to show what a great institution Prairie View really is, and it is destined to attain greater heights in the educational Principal John G. Osborne, a native Texan and product of Bishop College, is on over the job and under his administration the school has taken higher rank among colored schools in the country. The recent Texas legislature increased the appropriation for salaries for Prairie View teachers $23,000 above last year, voted the principal a salary and made additional allowances to pay him, thereby enabling him to get information and inspiration and to carry the message of what Prairie View is doing to and for the colored race generally in Texas and the Southwest.
At this summer school you will see all sizes and ages, as well as colors, studying to improve themselves and return to their posts next fall better prepared to teach and teach the young minds of the race. This augurs much for the race's future along educational lines, when teachers will take advantage of summer courses to better prepare and teach the students. Prairie View College is doing a great work for our race and the state, and to visit its expansive campus, behold its many buildings, inspect the physical equipment, meet its teaching force and learn about nothing of eating that special P. V. brand of food), will inspire one all.

(4) Who was the "Son of Laughter"
"Son of Laughter" Bert Willem was born in British West Indies in 1876. An a boy, working at odebates about theatre, his jovial disposition soon won him recognition and he finally found himself in vaudeville as a singing comedian. He rapidly rose up in the public eye and appeared by royal command before many of the crowned heads of Europe. His performances in "The Sons of Ham," "Dahoney," "Abrasinia," and "Bandana Lama" are well remembered by the general public and he has been said that he laughed his way into the hearts of men—yea into the hearts of great men. As he carried the interests of his race into those hearts with him, he was a very popular and triumphant Negroes, for the bread that he cast upon the waters has been, is and will be remembered after many days. Bert collapsed during his act on a Detroit stage, rallied and passed out March 16, 1922, in New York.
(5) Did a Negro ever preside over
the House of Assembly of any state?
During the session of the House of Assembly of the state of New Jersey, on January 16, 1922, the exander of Orange, assembling of Eater County, was called to the chair of the session of the House of Assembly of the state of New Jersey, presiding over a house of Assembly pronounced a proclamation for first time in Jersey. The resolution, which was unanimously passed, expressed profound respect for the House of Assembly in 1922 similar honor was conferred upon Assembly Frederick Robert of Los Angeles.
(6) Was Carthage betrayed?
After breaking the power of Carthage, at Zama, the kingdom of Namida, a god of Mastassina, who became a tool of Rome and treated the Carthagian. When the dreadful truth was realized the heroic Carthagian karnak, without a temple, was destroyed and gate and keep the Romans out for more than two years. Finally Scripture made the Roman senate, leveled its building and street by and command of the inhabitants to Rome to be sold as slaves. What is the 12th Amendment to the Constitution of the U. S. A.? The 13th Amendment to the Constitution of the U. S. A. was submitted November 1888, reads as follows: "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for being in the United States, or any place in the United States, but been duly convicted, shall exist with us." Congress shall have power to publish this article by appropriate legislature.

I am happy that my friends can't say "I told you me!"
I was literally begged not to dig the basement under our store—was it told it would never appeal to House-tonants—that it would be uninhabitable in the summer.
I'm glad I followed my munch, for the proof of the pudding's in the eating.
A cold room at temperatures in the basement compared with the temperature in the shade outside during the past month shows the basement to be better.
The increasing number of customers—the very attention that the esteem in which the Basement is held by caretakers is so very gratifying after six months of operation that I would back any longer from publishing this statement.
I was literally begged not to dig the bassman under

"I am glad I followed my hunch, for the proof of the puller in the eagle's mouth," the temperatures in the basement compared with the temperature in the shade out of the window, which month's has the basement to be from 5 to 15 degrees Fahrenheit.
