Seldom, if ever, do they reach beyond the pale of mere commonality. In fact, it is not expected of free-lance writers, prestige seekers and down right , “Hand me Down” seribblers t6 give serious thougkt and physical energy to the fourth estate. Even though there is an abundance of material, one is not inclined to seck material because the reward ac- curing therefrom, is not commensur- ate with the time. mentality and ef- fort spent in securing material, Henee the sveial side of the fourth estate Is entrusted to those who would exer- cise his mental powers, gratutiously. A most interesting definition of the Glorified Woman came to my attention, One would net expect the fair sex toe supply the answer. ‘To my utter sur prise a lady of circumscribed conven tienalities handed me an ear full, Be- fore I reeovered from the shork she wave mean eye full, To be briet she delivered herself of the following: A Gloritied Woman ts one, who asks the barber to cut her hair with zero clippers: one who wears mannish clothes, — smokes, drinks Kentucky corn. dips snuff. eats raw oysters and raw eges after a theatre party, stays out late with another girls fellow, es- pecially her friend's: one who owes everybody ineluding the Ttalian fee man and the Negro newsboy, one whe shoots craps Saturday night. but is the first te start the Sunday Sehool les son, Sunday morning oer afternoon: one whe goes Jn bathing and leaves her one plece suit) upon the beach, nud then proceeds to feed at some swell cafe where she meets her pastor, then clopes with him: one who devotes meeh time to bridge, pinechle and poker: she believes In ecompantonate marriage: also birth control. This same Jady geta her degree from n co-cducational institution, only to use if as a pass port to obtain a “Night Hostess Position’. Through “contact” and because of affluence a regiment of Iounge lizzards, profes- slonale and gentlemen who earn by their wits beeome attached to her. As a rate the propristcr assumes the role of tue heavy sugar daddy. His income is allocated tu maintain one or more “institutions”. ‘the house or flat is furnished. In fact two of them. ‘The other being for an aged “aunt or mother’, who barbors a third party. She pays his rent. buys his fuod and clothes, only to turn him out when he disobeys. But upon slightest signs of repentance he is again taken in. If he proves to be an obedient sweetback, she, this Gloritied Woman, sets bim up in busi- ness, Many a lawyer, doctor, profes- ser, restaurant keeper, real estate and insurance broker owes his start to the Glorified Woman, We said she believes in companion- ute marriage and birth control, Her advice has saved the reputation of many aogirl, She believes in educa- tion, moral progress, the Volstead Act, and is a Methodist, but prefers the Episcopal — services. Of course she wears beautiful clothes, furs and dia- monds, drives a Chrysler und raises hell in general. This, all of this and mere is oa feminist viewpoint of what constitutes the Glorified Woman, Take her out of your life and the rest of yours will be spent in playing solitare, or reading Sureease of Sorrow. Mayhe Oscar Wilde's “Intentions,” much less than the Nun's Confession or something by Bovaccio. Try as one may, one is compelled to live in the true human estate. The realtors of condemnation may want to foreclose. In so doing, they become conscious stricken, lest public opinion, that ever present and all wise judge, adjudges the mortgage in contempt. Indelible records show, that nine times out of ten the victim has been an asset to her persecutor. Grown opulent from her eareful and pain- staking sacriflee, to make human that which fs inhuman, the brutes of social impediment hecome dissatisfied. This dissatisfaction proves his un- doing. Tt may be that he has received coveted degree in law, medicine or thealogy. Sometimes its a girl, whose social status, and pedigree is an im- pervious tablet. And whose advance- ment Is the envy of other women. On the other hand, he might be suspici- oned ns having crossed the color line. The gentleman just becomes dissatis- fied. He discards the Glorified Wom- an. His days are numbered. It won't he long. Newspaper headlines tel] the story. “The Glorified Woman” is part an@ parcel of these modern times. We cannot accept her. nor can we regert her. Social Snapshots Geraldyn Dismond REALLY, we hate to brag about ourselves, but, the truth is the light, and the Tattler's Bon Voyage Party at the Savoy Wednesday was a wow and we just can't help it. Even the heat couldn't stop us. 2000 guests turned out to give a hand to the Trip to Paris Contest Winners, and we celebrated without shifting gears from high. The Johnny and Mildred Hudgins were there in all their glory and Broadway stars galore. William Bojangles Robinson was presented with a life size painting of himself, and what was more important for the contestants, the same Mr. Bojangles in turn presented Alma Smith with the first prize $500; Marjorie Smith with $300, the second, Rosey Swain with $200, the third, Denise McClennan with the fourth and Mao Brown with the fifth, $100 each. The judges, Bessye J. Bearden, Mrs. Fannie Robinson, Will Vodery, Leigh Whipper, Billy Pierce and Lew Leslie were on hand to officiate and add to the swankiness of the occasion. In the crush were: Dr. Cute Carter, Howard Bearden, Dr. Wiley Wilson, Lloyd Thomas, Frances Garvin, the James Thomases, Junius M. Green, Edmonia Horne, Dr. Frank Horne, the Ted Hornes, Mr. and Mrs. Bruce, Narcissus Turner, William C. Handy, Mercedes Rector, the Louis Georges, Elizabeth Russell of Washington, the Cyril Reids, H. Binga Dismond, Roberta Bosley, Blanche Ross, the M. Chaplins, Ethel R. Murrap, Albert W. Whitney, Inez Quinn, Rozalia Crawford, Joseph Crawley, Floretta Noisette, Ralph Hawkins, Anne C. Douglas, the Chas. B. Smiths, Belle Johnson, Dick Thomas, Dr. and Mrs. Petit, Lutilla V. Douglas, Thelma Berlack, Mr. De Lawrence, Mrs. "Jimmie" Roy McDonald, who came all the way from San Antoine, Texas, with her sister, Coral Lowe, Bruce Anderson, Richard Lowe, Johnnie Earl, Jackie Nobile, J. William Clifford, Fay Casselle and a host of others. THE WEEKLY PRESS And here we have the first lady of the contest—ALMA SMITH. Ain't she cute? Yes, babes! And how! The snapshooter wishes her a bang up time in Paris and wouldn't she like to turn out with her. Before I write another line, permit me to publicly announce that I did not get to Wilmington, North Carolina, or even so far as Buckroe Beach, Va., and that my two weeks' journey ended at Washington, D. C., 1813 Vernon Avenue, N. W., residence of the Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks and Mrs. J. Finley Wilson. The moral of which is—never predict the outcome of a motor trip. But to make a long story longer, I will begin at the time of my departure and relate a story that is not new but still funny. --- With the exception of myself, the members of the party—Bertha Lam- host, Marian Hill Nixon and John Hill—shall from North Carolina. Since my four on the East Coast, I have learned one thing—the sweetest people in the world come from North Carolina, but also the slowest. So although we were scheduled to leave my day at exactly two o'clock on Tuesday morning, July 31st, I drove up in the morning at two-thirty and was shocked down to the bricks to see an enormous red Packard-a block long—wedgeged in between the police cars and the overflow of a nearby garage. However, after not more than ten minutes, I had packed in my two hat cases, zipper roll, make-up box and uke and we were sailing toward the park. * * * At the 5th Avenue and 110th Street Standard Oil Station, began my first-hand knowledge of Packards. I had always thought of Packards in terms of long, low, sixes or straight eights, and how well do I now know that there are a few long, high twin sixes still left in the world. Their chief characteristic is that they pass everything on the road, except gas stations. "How many?" "Fill her up." From me—"How many does she hold?" From the driver, 'Sixteen.' And I believed that there would be no more thought of gas until we reached Baltimore. It is to laugh. The next stunt was pulled off at the opening to the Holland Tunnel. For some reason known only to the traffic officer, we had to wait fifteen minutes before the signal which permitted us to race under the Hudson River to the Jersey Coast was given. A long triple line had formed with the red Packard in second place center. The whistle finally sounded. The mad rush started, but not the Packard. The butteries were dead. After plenty of arm exercise by the driver, during which time the back seat attempted to look nonchalant, we chugged off. ```markdown ``` Luckily the gas stations in the Jersey's are closed in early morning. We made it to Philly before she pulled in for another sixteen. Then a new wrinkle appeared. Every few miles, the driver would stop and tighten or loosen something on the rear wheels. Just as we were leaving Philly, he announced that we would have to go into the pit to have the brakes adjusted. One hour lost. After being lost for another hour, by the grace of the gods and much questioning, we found ourselves on the Conowingo Road to Baltimore. We finally relaxed and were sailing along, when—pow! Then clang, clang, clang, and the car started a lame duck from one side of the road to the other. Amid shrieks, curses and groans, she toppled off the road and stopped. Have you ever been on a rim hunt? For thirty minutes we beat the bushes on both sides of the road before finding the two rims that had jumped off with the blow-out. * * * At this point, I began wondering just why I had thought it necessary to leave my Harlem. But aside from losing the road again in Baltimore, having heart failure because the driver insisted upon passing cars near the top of hills, buying sixteen gallons of gas every mile or so and burning up the breaks, we arrived in Washington at six-thirty - sixteen hours from the time we started. It was then that I decided that my purse and nerves were not sufficiently long enough to stand a trip of 500 additional miles, and instead of one day, I put in five days doing the 16th Biennial Convention of the National Association of Colored Women, Inc. . . To be perfectly truthful, however, the Convention did not occupy all of my time. Piloted by the twin, Hora e Scott, a party of us took in Suburban Gardens, the black Coney Island of Washington. If you think you know your Negro, you don't know that first thing about him until you have visited Suburban Gardens. A few minutes each day I spent with Dr. Arthur Curtis who was kind enough to keep me from losing my two pierced ears which had added to the pleasure of my outing by becoming infected. I discovered that Vincent Thomas has a marvelous drugstore; that Washington has a market that is a wow; that Kerman Trigg and Horace Scott are busily engaged in giving Howard University a new coat of paint; that Alice Dunbar Nelson isn't as clever as I thought her to be, but more clever; that the Grand Exalted Ruler, J. Finley Wilson, begins his day at seven in the morning; that the handsome Dr. Jimmy Lawson of Chicago, has an equally handsome brother on the Washington Daily Post; that you have to be fat and forty to belong to the Federation, that when it rains in Washington it gets hotter instead of cooler; that Howard Ether (not Esther) McNeil is an interne at Freedman's Hospital; and that darker Washington has two shore resorts—Highland Beach, the playground of the bourgoise and Eagle Harbor, the retreat of the proletariat. ```markdown ``` With many misgivings we started homeward Monday at noon. I had declared my affection for Philadelphia, but the rest of the party had Atlantic City as its objective. We had not been on the road many minutes before it became evident that although the car had spent several days in a garage for repairs, the brakes were still bad, the spark plugs dirty, and the cylinder heads on the blink. For no good reason the gentleman in charge of the car had a horror of Packard service stations and in spite of our entreaties had refused to have the Red properly gone over. However, we made it along fairly well until we attempted to cross the Susquehanna at Havre de Grace. We started up the incline of the toll bridge and half way up the darn thing stopped and began to coast down. At best I hate bridges. I have not yet recovered from my fright. After what seemed years to me, but in reality five or six minutes ,much sweating of blood and prayers and curses, she decided to cross. But from that moment on, it was a dog. The maximum speed was cut down from fifty to forty to thirty—to twenty-five. We crowded up to a service station. The garage man frankly admitted that he knew nothing about the Packard twin-six, that it was a peculiar and difficult beast and he hadn't seen one in ages. "Ages—what Photograph VIOLA SCUDDER and GERT young ladies who helped put over Martin performs on the violin and THE FASHION WEEK VIOLA SCUDDER and GERTRUDE MARTIN, two talented young ladies who helped put over the Tattler Radio Hour. Miss Martin performs on the violin and Miss Scudder is a pianist. --- * * * year is this car?" I asked. "1923, Madame." Ah, the mystery was solved. Old age had it. The only hope he held out was that if we could make it to Wilmington, Delaware, there we would find a man at an address he gave, who owned two such models and knew what to do with them. We pulled out and creeped on. Twenty, fifteen dropped the speedometer. A storm was approaching. Cars were flying—either to Wilmington or Havre de Grace. The driver, after a five days' wait suddenly decided to clean the spark plugs—twelve, mind you. By the time he had finished the storm was upon us. We creeped up one hill and stopped dead. A peppy little Dodge coupe towed us five miles to Wilmington for the sum of five dollars which I gladly paid. I took the first train out for Philly and Miss Coolbreeze. I have lost my taste for motoring. I have been telling people what a delightful time I had, but no matter how thin I slice it it is still bolognie. * * * Since I confessed my love for Sam Manning-Comedy last fall, my first stop on reaching Harlem Thursday was the supper show of the Lafayette. And there was my Sam Manning, with his big limpid black eyes, black face, vermillion lips, walking stick and British accent. I laughed, I curled up, I rocked. With him was Pork Chops and another chap whose name I don't know, but that makes no difference because with Manning, they are lost. ```markdown ``` About my idol I learned a couple of new things. First--when it comes to women--he can't pick them. There were positively only three attractive girls in the line-up and he had them hidden in the back row.

Have you seen Fletcher Henderson's straight eight Packard roadster, the Chancey Scott's straight eight Packard limousine and the Wiley Wilson's Packard coupe, nicknamed the "Show Boat"? Well, the Marmon straight eight called the Snake's Hips by Uncle Tom McCleary Stinnette, is still wringing and twisting. ```markdown ``` But speaking of things of beauty, have you glanced at Ethel's Blackbird window? Blackbirds galore are flying hither, thither and about all over Adelaide Hall, Aida Wards, Bonjangles Robinson and Snake Hips. In a corner is a darling tree at the top of which is our beloved Florence Mills, looking for a bluebird, and in the other corner is a wee bluebird headed toward her. And the clever Ethel did it all her own self. ```markdown ``` Ethel Peacock Coolbreeze McDougald spent the week-end in Harlem with her girl and boy friends.

ON SUNDAY, APRIL 10 Johnny Hudgins IN LEONARD HARPARD'S DAYLIGHT ASSOCIATION "PARISIAN NIGHTS" FEATURE PHOTOBLAST: MILTON SILLS in "Burning Daylight" HISTORY WORK—BEGINNING MONDAY, AUGUST 10 IVIN G. MILLER'S "THE SHOWMAN" Harlem AT THE LAFAYETTE Theatre this week, Johnny Hudgins of international fame is the big headliner in Leonard Harper's "Parisian Nights". In this revue Mr. Harper has assembled a world of talent. What with Johnny Hudgins, "Fess" Williams band, Pegleg Bates, dancer, Radcliff, Cliff and Radcliff, Zaza and Adela, white dancers deluxe, Bobby and Baby Goins, Tosh Hammed, Pearl McCormack and a number of lesser known lights, Mr. Harper has a glorious assemblage of entertainers. Johnny Hudgins, naturally was the headliner of this wonderful program, Johnny, just off the big French liner Paris, hardly had time to regain his land legs before his initial appearance here after an absence of about three years. And his engagement at the Lafayette this week is a sort of triumphal return after his European Elhs. Of course Hudgins enjoyed his trip abroad at so much per week. But after all is said and done there's only one place in the world, the good old U, S, A. "Pegleg" Bates, a one legged dancer, is a sensation. He just about breaks up the show with his great dancing. He's a riot and then some more. Radcliff, Cliff and Radcliff, as nifty a trio as you might wish, are all-around entertainers. Zaza and Adele, white dancers, are capable entertainers. Pearl McCormack's toe dancing is very good. Bobby and Baby Coins score in their flashy demonstration and Fess William's hand, under the leadership of Eddie Haywood, scores, as they always do on such occasions. E. Jones, toots the trumpet for Hudgins and, as everybody knows, Miss Jones is the best trumpet blower harring only old Gabriel, to be found anywhere in the universe. ```markdown ``` THE ALHAMBRA is showing "A Prince for a Night" with four count 'em — four star comedians, John Mason, (Bert Williams, Jr.) the one and only Roscoe Montella, Dusty Fletcher, radiating youth, vim and vigor, and Johnny How, blues violinist and old songs celliicator.

Are Professional Neurons Stuck Up HAPPY GARDNER, who is well known to members of the Theatrical profession and to readers of theatrical news, is at present the city editor of a budding Newark weekly. Mr. Gardner sends the following letter and article: I am enclosing an article which I believe marries some attention. It is only a part of my real observation of this class of people after eighteen years of selling my manufactured toilet articles from door to door in every large city and most smaller ones in this country, Cuba and Canada. The Negro or a profession doctor, dentist, lawyer is the most "stuck-up" or our group. He nurses an idea that he is better than the Negro who has to work for his living or the fellow who has not graduated from college. He carries this Law-better-than-you idea on his face—it marks his every notion in speech and conduct. If he perchance is in a crowd of lowly Negroes, he is ill-put-up, can't mix like a regular fellow and reminds you quickly that he is your superior. He insists on being introduced as doctor so-and-so or lawyer Brown—or Doctor Jones, the dentist. He wants to stand out—he apart from that common working man. Indiana, the Negro professional man employs this attitude in his own home. If he is married, his wife catches the garm. She thinks she is better than the woman who has to work for a livelihood in some kitchen. She smiles thearker woman--refuses association with style organizations, lodges, homes or any movement where woman go who do not have a professional husband. It does not speak well for the individual nor the school that graduates professional men who show a lack of the right spirit of education the education of common sense and correct understanding. The doctor, lawyer and dentist must get his lying in this country from his own people. It is among them that he throws out his single holding trade. Just how no respects to put your image by "high housing" the public is not clear. He is purely a public servant. He is asking the people to look and clothe his. The more they be in the public, the greater his patronage. I cannot see where his brains are that he falls in this principle. People of the race are more loyal to those professional men who not "those yeves". Just glance at the more professions they are, lawyers and diplomats -- you'll find them in the three whose patronage and profession have not glanced them the well known and those whose why are sensible enough to show defensible professions and how for the most wife and family. Simply when you pass them in the street, among them -- they are humble. Simply your thinking -- let them know you appreciate, that they care for you.

Will find me at the Rogal, Chicago, with Detroit, Kansas City and St. Louis to follow. You cute better come out here, so you can duck those hot dogs." Deacon Johnson's Musical Column --- At first thought it might seem strange that in Amorien the Negro should have the most unique and original musical development. For two hundred and fifty years in the United States he was an industrial drudge. He had what we might term COMMERCIAL LEISURE. In the work hours he was Dencon Johnson driven and hurried by the lush, but when the hours of the work-day had passed, he was soul-free, at least, in the bewitching twilight and sometimes on Sundays. In his leisure hours his mind was not chasing dollars and profits, as were the minds of the master class. He was a slave to the industrial lush but not to the lush of ambition. He had spiritual leisure. He sang and told over stories in his mind and to his companions, and enjoyed the cultivation of those arts which unsophisticated nature afforded. This enamelled Negro, therefore, was not great in instruments but in vocals he was, and is, a sensation, and he was, and is, the champion story-teller about animals and concrete things. The vanity of the music leader makes him think his combination will be an exception. He deludes himself with the idea that he can literally make his combination seek his favor and entreat him earnestly to the end. The music leader does not know or, will not know, what "per cent" means, and he cannot or will not look at both sides of the ledger and tell the condition of their finance. He has no intention of investment, provision for a solvent management or overhead. Experience only can teach him. "We will divide all movies evenly between us, want we boys?" is the way he puts it. "You bet we will," the old muscleman answers earnestly. "We want all that we can get, don't we? And they try it, too every time they are offered an engagement. THERE LIES THE GIFT OF THE TROUBLE --- This quest for highly colored films and adventure on the part of leaders and who musicians is prevalent. Many barriers of plain, common sense or spectability are being seated and broken down. Musicians continue to fall for it. They do the engagement as they please their contractor, manager and patron with the utmost in difference. "Who cares?" Hurrah! Break the promoter or "host". That about the way they feel about it.

The "Foregrounds," which have previously talked of the theatre had a very popular way in which they interpreted the theatre to the public. This way was most likely the most attractive to many of the readers. We have covered several points and to my mind I think lighting is one of the most interesting. The problem of stage lighting is curiously unlike the other nonthetic problems of the theatre. The net of stage lighting, unlike those of acting, theatre architecture, scenic design, painting, costume design, almost has no history. Such history as it has, until the last two decades, is simply history of artificial illumination. It is very little more than three hundred years ago that Illumination and the theatre had their first meeting. The Grookos played by sun-light and so did Shakespeare and his players. A torch or a swan on the stage indicated night, but it did not illuminate it. And it may be worth considering that light in these ancient theatres the sun light did not reinforce the "mood" of the play or scene, but mitigated it. It is true that before the theatre moved indoors once and for all plays were performed in artificial light courses, in schools and gardens lighted by flares. Generally, however, dependence was upon the same means by which the audience chamber was lighted candles were hung in chandeliers. The lights above the stage must be lowered and those in the audience be raised into a well, so that, during the action of the play a differentiation between audience and stage might be effective. No, with very slight modification things remained the same for a century and a half. A row of candles along the edge of the stage, the first footlights, made the actors' faces brighter. Surplaining the wax or tallow candle by an oil lamp gave a smoother glow but did little to change the effect as to intensity, etc. The introduction of gas, with numerous burners, placed YOUR CLUB Should Advertise Its Next Dance Affair in The Interstate Tattler Papa Nina along a food pipe for borders and footlights did more than make an advancement in lighting. The substitution of electricity for gas has done little to change the aims of stage lighting because the gas led up to time lighting for spotting and flaring then by colors day and night could be better handled. Lights are used in the theatre, whether for illusion "offoot" or for more arbitrary ends, falls into two classes: diffused and directed. In the first class are all the borders and footlights, strip lights, floods; the second class belong to the various types of spots which, when used, all aim to bring the light rays to a parallel. A much carefully lighted production for the modern theatre substitute, the first border in the theatre (a pipe button) from which are hung various forms of spots, floods, directed in the areas where light is desired. I attempted to meet the need for an electric box of a very varied type for the New Negro Art Theatre production in Yonkers—a border light made up of 24 lamps grouped on 4 strips and separately dimmer, each controlled six lamps. Thus the lamps (100 watt) could be burned as four circuits, such a different color, or light could be used selectively. LEARN TO DANCE SOCIAL AND STAGE PROF.

GLAZING THE TRAIL Alvin J. Moses BECKWITH— Great home run hitter of Homestead Grays—olouts nearly as far as Babe Ruth. THE ARCOSY RETURNS but not beaten, the noble Dehart Hubbard, a broad jump champion of America, and his friend Gordon of Town State University are home and unified inwardly at Amsterdam when after a fierce 'hors du combat' as far as gaining first place, skinned jumping marvel from the Islands of the Real American Eddie Humm of Georgia Tech, won for the American contingent. Humm, a graduate University one man truck team, was held fortune. Unlike the average run of Southern leaders, this pleasant faced junior of the institution of learning is a real thoroughbred. WORLDS BEST NATURAL JUMPERS An independent predicted over two years ago that a name worth remembering at the next contest. How well he proved our contention is his Duke Farrell of Michigan to instruct him in the not even Hubbard in his palmiest days on the Cator, a quiet, smiling, unassuming West unorthodox jumpers in the world.

Strange to noticed truck stars suffered pulled tendons in them they were voted sure winners of their race had chalked up their points to her over in National broad jump champion of America, and his good looking team-mate Ed Gordon of Iowa State University are home again. Hubbard must have smiled inwardly at Amsterdam when after a pulled tendon rendered him 'hors du combat' as far as gaining first place was concerned, a dark skinned jumping marvel from the Islands of Haiti pushed the sensational American Middle Humm of Georgia Tech, to the utmost in order to win for the American contingent. Humm, a protege of the former Michigan University one man track team, was heartbroken over Hubbard's misfortune. Unlike the average run of Southerners who were once our overlords, this pleasant faced junior of the south's leading technical institution of learning is a real thoroughbred absolutely free of prejudice. WORLDS BEST NATURAL JUMPER This correspondent predicted over two years ago that Syvie Cater, would be a name worth remembering at the next edition of the Olympic games. How well he proved our contention is history, and with a coach like Duke Farrell of Michigan to instruct him in the finer points of jumping, not even Hubbard in his palmiest days could have approached him. Cator, a quiet, smiling, unassuming West Indian is one of the most unorthodox jumpers in the world. He fails to employ the great speed in the runways that Humph and Hubbard characterize their leaps with, rather he depends upon giant human springs that play like serpents under his skin once called into action. From the takeoff block to the point of descent, Cator is the best jumper living, outside of the kunguroo. Hubbard and his protégé both use the scissors kick in mid-air getting from two to three feet added distance with this modern invention of American track coaches. Gordon, in another year ought to rate high with the leaders in his specialty, while Hubbard appears to be at the end of his brilliant career due to leg trouble. PULLED TENDONS ATHLETIC BANE THE hune of all athletes are pulled tendons. It caused the retirement of two of the greatest American athletes of African descent that ever lived-Howard P. Drew, and Sol Butler. Strange to relate, both of the aforementioned truck stars suffered pulled tendons in Olympic competition when they were voted sure winners of their respective events and America had chalked up their points to her ever increasing tally. DREW GREATER THAN CRAIG Bright in recalling that Ralph C. Craig of Michigan, one of the few man to duplicate the performance of Canada in winning both Olympic sprint halftime the performance of the great Craig, in Columbus, he never saw the day that he could win. In the Boston try-outs of 1912 when finally the American team that scored a hollow victory; Draw hunt, Craig by two yards in the first time of 10 and 45 seconds for 100 metres. The peeping over his shoulder, a foolhardy process, made child's play for the sensational Draw, being as fast as he could to. Draw pulled a ten at Sweden after beating Stan of Germany through the last 20 metres. Gamey he faced but was forged to shindon the effort, when he and through four dimmed eyes watched Craig 100 and 200 metres events he could have with the signed testimony of head coach Mike Muiversity, who rated Draw the greatest sprinter. BUTLER COLLAPSED AT BELGIUM Appic games of 1920, the colorful Hol Butler, the team of Dubuque College, Iowa, pulled a tenure winner in the broad jumping contest. Hol Butler with the gameness of a stole, assayed H. H. A., but crumpled on the slippery turf matles, SCUBES delight in recalling that Ralph C. Craig of Michigan University was one of the few men to duplicate the performance of Little Percy Williams of Canada in winning both Olympic sprint tests. With no desire to hollow the performance of the great Craig, favored son of Ann Arbor Alumnus, he never saw the day that he could kick our own Howard Draw. In the Boston try-outs of 1912 when finalists were being selected for the American team that scored a hollow victory at Stockholm, Sweden; Draw bent, Craig by two yards in the world's record figures at that time of 10 and 4.5 seconds for 100 metres. The cocky Drew Hicked Craig peeping over his shoulder, a foolhardy procedure for any puncher, but more child's play for the sensational Draw who was capable of running as fast as he could to. Draw pulled a London in one of the trial harts at Sweden after beating him of Germany in 11 seconds that. Hiping through the last 20 metres. Gamefully he faced the starter in the final, but was forged to shudden the effort, when his leg buckled under him, and through four dimmed eyes watched Craig go on to victory in the 100 and 200 metres events he could have won with ease according to the signed testimony of head coach Mika Murphy of Pennsylvania University, who rated Draw the greatest sprinter of the ages. BUTLER COLLAPSED AT BELGIUM IN the Olympic games of 1920, the colorful Hot Butter, track star and football ace of Dubuque College, Iowa, pulled a tendon when he appeared a sure winner in the broad jumping contest. Like the indomitable Draw, Butler with the gamamass of a stole, assayed to one more jump for the U, K, A, but crumpled on the slippery turf in the arms of his teammates.

AL BROWN OUR NEXT CHAMP Gray barred by the "Negraphobe" Tex Rickard at all, Afro-American fans throughout the country now little Al Brown will fare at the hands of set, Brown, just now looms as champion of Hamiltonsky, mentor of Chick Huggs, who has the skills of the socking Panamanian, is out with andry little men from 115 pounds upwards, early prediction that in less than six months A OR CHAMPION providing of course that he deal (how can he), or that Humbert Fug WITH Godfrey barred by the "Negrophobe" Tex Rickard for no good reason at all, Afro-American fans throughout the country are wondering just how little Al Brown will fare at the hands of the boss of the fight racket. Brown, just now looms as champion of his division, and Dave Lumiansky, mentor of Chick Huggs, who has taken over the managerial reins of the socking Panamanian, is out with a challenge to all the sundry little men from 115 pounds upwards. This writer makes the early prediction that in less than six months Al Brown will be a WORLD'S CHAMPION providing of course that Rickard gives him a square deal (how can be), or that Humbert Fugazy and the reign of the prejudiced Texan over matters pugilistic. CRICKET WIZARDS The writer has been watching cricket teams of all nationalities and color since the war, and we are still of the opinion that the B.W.I. team is the best ever. Hobbs, the Englishman, who holds the world's record for batting, recently said in the "Daily Gleaner", that the B.W.I. team ranked with the very best in the world. ELDRIDGE VERY ILL Court fans throughout Greater New York will be shocked to learn that Eldridge, "All Scholastic" center at De Witt Clinton High School, and crack pivot man of the St. Christopher Red and Black machine, is ill in St. Luke's hospital. Eldridge, was taken sick with acute appendicitis, and according to Eddie Corbin, one of his mates, the appendix burst, and a drain was instituted immediately.

In Sundays issue of the Atlantic City Press, William P. Burrell, of Newark, member of the Essex County Rep. Committee and for several years Assembly Clerk, undertook to brand the allegations of Lightfoot as being for personal aggrandizement. Mr. Burrell branded as fictitious that no such Conference took place as stated by Lightfoot. Further "Nutter & Lightfoot", although lawyers, have to all appearences slummed out of the law, into the game of waiting for political campaigns to "Bob" up. Surely neither of them under their present circumstances, have any means of knowing whether Mr. Randolph functions or not. However Mr. Burrell does not defend Mr. Randolph by saying that he does function. Lightfoot stated that Randolph would not know that he was a state attorney only for the drawing of his check. . . . The Atlantic City Press carried an editorial in which it said: The state of affairs, so far as Negroes are concerned, is illusory, and that the Nutter-Lightfoot pronouncement would have little effect unless the body politic became more interested and delved more intelligently into affairs. Lack of leadership of intelligence is responsible for the political illusion. The signs are hopeful, says the editorial. which was held last Wednesday proved to be a grand success.

The guests of honor were: Miss Isobel Carson, of Cleveland, Ohio; Miss Katherine Gillespie, of Birmingham, Alabama. Some of the guests enjoying the hospitality of Miss Mason were: Hortense Hall, Wilda Kennedy, George Williams, Hazel Belle Renfroe, Ronna Lawson, Dr. Ned Beasley, Leona Denison, Wm. H.

Mr. Jones, simply because he is Dick and Eller and Chick because they are two dear little love bugs. The Chicago Fiske Club gave a picnic-dance at the Ogdon Park Community House last Saturday evenings. Undoubtedly it was a success. Picnics are an enjoyable change from our other social activities these hot days. Sport frocks prevailed and the men looked must artful in white trousers and blue coats. Received word today that Mrs. Geraldine Glover has returned from her trip to Washington, D. C., having attended the "Women's National Confederated Convention". She reports having enjoyed herself in a grand and glorious fashion. She also says that the meetings were quite interesting as well as exciting. Now the excitement part is as yet rather vague to me out from all reports it did cause a bit of heart palpitation. St. Louis is well represented by the presence of the delightful Lulabelle Kirkpatrick. She returned with Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Purney. She is captivating hearts right and left. A laundry man and a press photographer seem to be running a tight race. Knowing the charming lady is a distinct pleasure in itself. Yes, she is a school teacher and, oh how those kids love their teacher. Personality is a gift. It runs in the family. Oh Sho! Mrs. Rudolph Glover entertained with an evening of merriment in honor of her sister. Mrs. Nettie Anderson last Wednesday evening. The charm of the hostess and her sister radiated during the entire evening. Among those present were, Wilda Kennedy. Miss Leyla Rood, Miss Marlon Shaw. Miss Leona Denlson. Mr. Alfred Nixon.

Since last December, in more than two hundred cities and villages throughout the country, where ever Elks Lodges and Temples are located, the members of the Elks Fraternity have been making a great Race effort which will have its climax in the Eighth Illinois Regiment Armory, 35th and Giles Avenue, Chicago, Ill., on the night of August 27, 1928, when the Final Contest in the Elks National Oratorical Contest will take place. These contests which were inaugurated by the Elks Grand Lodge in Cleveland, Ohio, upon the recommendation of the Grand Exalated Ruler, J. Finley Wilson, are to encourage the Negro youth to strive for general education and to have a fuller understanding of the Constitution of the United States. This year the contest will serve as the opening event of the Grand Lodge Session of the Elks and Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune has been invited to sum up the work of the evening. Judge Hueston, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the National Negro Voters' League which holds its first meeting in Chicago at Wendell Phillips High School. August 24, 1928. expects a large delegation. The meeting of the National Negro Voters' League which will be for one day only will be a new departure in Negro Conventions. It meets for action, not for lengthy speeches and long resolutions. It attempts first to work for the full enfranchisement of the American Negro: Second, to ascertain where the Negro stands in the Republican Party and to scourge those who betray the race for political advancement. This assures that the meeting will be full of purpose and pep. NATIVES VISITING OUT OF TOWN Messers. Greenwald and Cater at Pembine, Mich. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Thompson. Messers. Leroy Dismond.

BY PLAYBOY AT the Regal Theatre this week Fess Williams and his Joy Boys are doing their stuff in a production known as the Iceland Follies, with the support of Marshall "Garbage" Rodgers, Warren and Gill, Emerson and Baldwin, Johnson and Johnson, Albertine Picken, the Dancing Regalettes and several others. This stage show is a red hot one, although the name is real cold. The dancing and singing is exceptionally good. But the real hit of this week's program is the feature picture, Richard Barthelmess in "The Wheel of Chance". A story of twin brothers loving the same woman. One of the brother kills her and then the dramatic court room scene with the other brother prosecuting him. Barthelmess plays the dual role wonderfully well. Sammy Williams at the grand organ assisted by his organ club gets over some very good popular numbers. While the Regal Symphonic Orchestra conducted by Dave Payton plays an interesting selection from the Chocolate Soldier as a overture. The famous Whitman Sisters have been held over for another week at the New Willard Theatre. Which goes to prove that a fine show is appreciated by the patrons of the Willard. As I said last week I consider Alice Whitman the best female dancer in the world. If there is any doubt about this statement, go to the Willard and be convinced this week. The supporting cast of the show is very good, with Bert Whitman impersonating a man, Princess Wee Wee, doing an Ethel Waters, C. C. Campell singing "Was It A Dream" and the two little youngsters about nine years of age doing some very fine dancing. But when I left the theatre the dancing of Alice Whitman lingered on. * * * The Metropolitan Theatre featured the picture "A Ship Comes In", the first part of the week, with Louise Dresser and Rudolph Schildkraut doing the stellar roles. The middle of the week a melodrama of jazz mad morals was shown, called "Road House". For the latter part of the week a double feature was offered. Lois Wilson in "Ransom" and an Arabian love story titled "Fleetwing". Erskine Tate and his Celebrated Orchestra keeps the patrons feet a moving with some original dance arrangements. You cannot go wrong on an evening's pleasure by stopping in the Metropolitan Theatre at least once during the week. --- First honors in the Vendome Theatre's popularity contest was won by Miss Mary Brown with 358,200 votes The second prize went to Miss Bettye Dowden who received 321,000 votes and third place was clinched by Miss Father Tribbs with 187,3000 votes. Miss Brown the winner is a graduate of Englewood High School. She was very popular with the students while in school. She is fond of sports but her main hobby is the movies. ```markdown ``` The Hotel Trenier is introducing some new features for the benefit of the Elks. and visitors who will be in town during the convention.

In the chorus is noted many familiar faces, among them is the well known chorine Jap Brown. * * * As you approach a theatre or stand in the lobby, you see pictures and paintings of the characters and scenes which are in the play. But you hardly ever give a thought as to who does the photography or art work. Yet you are greatly influenced whether to see the play or not by the pictures you see before entering the theatre. So I wish to call attention to the following article, concerning a young man of our group who does the art work for the Regal Theatre and several of the theatres in the Loop. ```markdown ``` Young Mr. Wilson, who has furnished advertising art for the new Regal Theatre since its opening last February, has to his credit the honor of PRIMA PALMERS SUN WHITENER BECOMES A SABLISH PLACES A SUN CLEARING THE LIGHTENING BALANCE BALLOON SUNSHINE BALANCE PRIMA PALMERS SKIN WHITENER Remarkable Bea Gives amazing in lightening Now it is remarkably easy to have a lighter, lovelier, clearer skin.

Clyde Blanchard, American hurdler who failed to make the team but got to Europe as a stowaway on the Olympic ship, was second and Fery, of France, third. The time was fifty seconds. Claude Bracey, of Rice Institute, Texas, won the 100-meter dash in ten and four-fifths seconds, and Tom Churchill, who participated in the decathlon in the Olympics, was second to Vintouskp, of France, in the hop, step and jump. Gordon. United States, was second to Bracey and Brochart, of Belgium, was third.

Business men from other parts of the country will meet a warm and sincere welcome here. They will also meet one of the greatest opportunities any group of our race has ever faced. This is the day of the business man. In every progressive country of the world the business man has taken the position of leadership. In Mexico, South America and Europe the rule of clergy, nobility and diplomacy had given way to the rule of the business man and business methods. It is safe to say that in the Western World no group can progress without business leadership. The time is ripe for the Negro business man to take the guidance of the race out of the hands of preachers and intellectuals and assume the place of leadership which the spirit of the age calls for.

It goes without saying that the TATTLER is heart and soul in sympathy with this movement. We do not share the shauvinistic sentiment, so frequently expressed, that any colored man is a better representative for the district than any white man, but we do hold that there are many colored men who, because of their knowledge of and sympathy with the peculiar problems of their people, would work more courageously and effectively in our behalf than any white congressman. Two such men, Rev. William P. Hayes and James Weldon Johnson, have already been mentioned as probable candidates. Judged from the point of view of ability, background or expediency, both Rev. Hayes and Mr. Johnson rate far above the average member for congress. They have admirable records of public service behind them and neither is a ballyhoo specialist. Either of them, if elected, would doubtless render the race a great deal of service to the accompaniment of very little posturing and shouting. Last but not least, both are in the prime of life.

She did bring to herself the man of whom she had dreamed, but she forgot to paint into her picture nobility of character; consequently the young man, although good to look upon, was lacking in most of the essentials that go to make up a life worth while. We are wondering if the young woman who penned the letter below has not, like the Natilus girl, failed to brush into her canvas, honesty of purpose, truthfulness, fidelity, indeed all the beauty that would tend to make her life happy. "Is there a young man in New York City desiring the company of a very lonely girl of Ohio, medium build and height, refined and age 24?

McVEY GOING STRONG Out in the west Jack McVey of Harlem, is rated as a greater card than Mickey Walker or Baltimore Joe Dundee. Fans out that way saw Jack perform against Pete Latzo and Dave Shade, and in each instance the clever colored battler was robbed of the judge's decision, after winning by the proverbial mile. Tonight, at the ball park of the American Giants of Chicago McVey stacks up against the ancient, yet dangerous, Jock Malone of St. Paul. McVey is punching better than ever in his career, and if he manages to sneak over the punch soporific on the classy Minnesottan, fans will forget all about his jousts with Rosenbloom and Courtney.
