One of the most distressing sights to be seen in Harlem is the large and increasing number of nomadic children who roam the streets. These forlorn and wretched little gypsies are to be encountered in every section of the community, ranging from urchins barely old enough to go to school up to adolescents approaching adulthood. Usually these little rowdies travel in small hordes of lawless boys but it is not at all rare to see a solitary little Arab of either sex hovering near a fruit stand with covetous eyes and eager fingers. Regardless of whether they are alone or one of a band these young hoodlums are always on the move and always in mischief. Always they are turning from one perverted pastime to another—honking the horns and tampering with the controls of parked automobiles, disarranging the papers on exposed news stands, filching fruit from unwary vendors, pestering pedestrians and terrorizing better behaved children engaged in the normal pursuits of childhood. Not only during the day but far into the night these little nomads may be seen prowling the THELMA YANCY, NEW YORK UNIVERSITY CO-ED TAKES THE LEAD IN TATTLER'S "QUEEN OF THE CLASSIC" CONTEST TWO big surprises are in store for contestants and their friends this week. The first surprise is the sensational debut of Miss Thelma Yancy, in first place with a total of 325,000 votes, and the second is the entrance in the contest of Miss Edna Covington of Washington, D. C., with a total of 275,000 votes to her credit. Miss Covington and Miss Yancy are of the type who do not understand the word "quit", and although late entering the contest, they are confident of their ability to win one of the major awards. Miss Yancy, one of Harlem's most accomplished members of the collegiate set, is a home girl and in her sophomore year at New York Universitv. She is studying to become a teacher of the three R's. She is active in several fraternities and entered the contest because of the insistent urging of her many friends.

She is active in contest because of the insistent un Some question has arose with reference to the payment of the prize money and to take this matter out of the realm of speculation, as well as to drown the grumblings of those who are trying to discourage some of our contestants, we wish to state that the total prizes amounting to five hundred dollars will be awarded at the Alhambra Ballroom, on Monday evening, November 26th. At this time also the three winning candidates, whose titles will be designated as follows: first, "Queen of the Classic for 1928"; second "Miss Howard", third "Miss Lincoln". The winning contestants will be taken to the Lincoln-Howard football game at the expense of the Tattler. The cash which will accompany the awarding of the titles will be first, $200 in gold; second $125 and third $75. As previously stated to the club or organization who by agreement with the Contest Editor assumes the task of working in the interest of any candidate and succeeds in landing its candidate among the first three winners the Tattler will award the sum of $100 divided. first, second and third. The contest has three more weeks to go before it will be brought to an end at twelve o'clock sharp midnight, November 24th. All the votes which are being cast now and all those which have been cast or will be cast will be re-counted by competent outside judges in no way connected with the InterState Tattler. The verdict of the judges will be announced at the Alhambra MONDAY EVENING NOVEMBER 26, 19 streets, an annoyance to taxicab chauffeurs and policemen and a source of vexation to thoughtful observers who realize that these young rowdies will soon be mature criminals. Like all evils, the youthful rowdyism of Harlem is the result of several contributing causes, but the main one, we are convinced, is neglect on the part of parents. When a boy in his early teens is to be found roving the streets long after midnight his parents or guardians either do not know where he is or do not care where he is. The latter kind of parent or guardian, of course, presents an even graver problem than youthful delinquency and we will reserve that problem for future discussion. But many parents take it for granted that their children are not in mischief so long as they do not hear of the youngsters being in trouble. There is danger in feeling too sure. Anything a boy does in the street after ten o'clock at night is almost certain to be mischievous. Anything he does after midnight is likely to be verging on the criminal. Where is YOUR wandering boy tonight? THE INTERSTATE TATTLER'S RECEPTION PARTY FOR THE "QUEEN OF THE CLASSIC" ADMISSION $1.00 BOXES (Seating 12) $8.00 LOGES $6.00 Ballroom Monday, November 26th. This is to assure an accurate count of the votes for everybody concerned. The names of the judges will be announced in the next issue of the Tattler. Meantime the Contest Editor wishes to advise all contestants, those who may be in the lead as well as those who are lower down on the list, that this is a genuine test of your popularity with your friends and acquaintances. And it is only through a contest of this kind that you may really learn as to the true value of those who seek your favor. As to the qualities which best constitute your charm, that is left for you to decide. But decide you must. Anyone who willingly spends their money on a candidate for the purpose of helping that candidate get a required number of votes in a popularity contest is doing so with good intentions. Further more there is another side to the question. The Tattler is published fifty-two weeks in the year. At ten cents per copy the average reader spends five dollars and twenty cents ($5.20) per year for his Tattler. By taking a subscription from one of the candidates in this contest for one year, he or she automatically saves three dollars and twenty cents. The Tattler is forwarded to your door each week and the contestant receives 10,000 votes toward one of the major prizes, all for the sum of $2. The rules of the contest require that all contestants must make their report to the office of the Tattler on Saturday night of each week, or before. To avoid a last minute rush such as we experienced last year, it is requested that all contestants must make a report, either in person or by telephone. Those failing to make this report after Saturday, November 17th will be considered nonactive contestants. Out-of-town contesants should mail their votes by U. S. money order not later than Saturday night and at the time that the contest ends a letter post marked up to 10 P. M. that night will be accepted. Others will be rejected. Remember: "The race is not to the swift but to the sure of foot." Are you sure? Women's Auxiliary to New York Urban League To Have Benefit Dance The Annual Entertainment and Dance of the New York Urban League Women's Auxiliary will be held at the Alhambra Million Dollar Ball-Room on November 20. The Urban League Dance is now recognized as a Classic and looked forward to by its many friends who come from far and near. Special features this year include Native Russian Dancers and other Broadway celebrities. The Woman's Auxiliary is well-known in the community. Much of the influence of the New York Urban League is due in no small measure to support given by this group of women. Mrs. Antoinette Deming who heads the Committee on Arrangement, states that requests for boxes have begun to come in even from Philadelphia, Washington and other cities, and announces as an extra attraction bridge and whist proceeding the dance to begin at 9:30 for which a variety of prizes is offered.

Mrs. Mattle Hunter received the consolation prize as a balm to her defeated spirit. * * * At the completion of the game, Mrs. Haywood served a full course chicken dinner on the most exquisite of gold Bavarian china. The table was a work of art and favors added to the gaiety of the occasion. Later in the evening Sergeant Jesse Battles, Robert Crumpler, Marvin Leonard, William Bowe, Leon Julian, John Pierce, D.

Speaking of farewell parties, the one given by Doll Scott in honor of Edna Covington, member of the younger social set of Washington, D. C., and Juanita Scott Maginley, of the Quaker Village was the Cat's Ankle. The affair was held at the spacious apartments of the Mardo Browns last Thursday evening. Of course if you have never had the good fortune to attend one of these jam-up parties you just can't imagine what a hilarious evening you have missed, and if you have, it is needless to give a description. Of course there was dancing—whoever heard of a farewell party that did not have dancing on the program—and the novel coallation served by the hostess was most attractive, while the punch made me feel like, never no more Whoopie, not at a farewell party at any rate. Meet a few of the guests: Roberta Jones, Rose Chapman, Josephine Weeks, Inez Cunningham, Elsie Robinson, Bessie Williamson, Emma Baker, New Rochelle, and Edna Jordan, Norfolk, Va., Mr. and Mrs. Perry, Mt.

Walker Beauty System was demonstrated by her agents at the Fashion Show and Beauty Parade held Tuesday evening, October 30 Mrs. Louis Cole of Chicago was in charge of the affair. One might call it Beauty and Her Court. The Casino was decorated with streamers running back and forth across the room, canopies here and there shaded the boxes and every box and lodge was marked with a coat of arms. A very noticeable effect was the tribute to Mme. A'Lelia Walker in the form of a circle streamer loop which graced her box and on each side reposed palms and flowers. A program followed after the dancers had enjoyed themselves for quite a length of time. I dropped in just as the program was in full swing and here is what I saw—the throne room was held in the middle of the orchestral row, and in it rested the Queen. Two pages stood on either side of her and it is hard to describe just what they wore, skirts that reminded one of Scottish days in that they were patterned after their skirts, only the colors were green, bodice flares-a la ruff which turned down and neck ruffles which turned up, and tops—This is what the pages wore—The orchestra struck up the processional march and many maidens and matrons filed by, each one wearing something different, evening gowns, afternoon frocks, formal dresses and all. Each beauty parlor using the Mme. C. J. Walker system contributed a representative to demonstrate her special line of hairdressing, and I am sure that one was able to witness all styles—boyish bob, parisian bobs, long haired bob, part-me-in-the-back-bobs, and all else. There was a cute baby parade and it is a pity more babies were not in it. They're so cute, really. After the program, the General Manager was called upon to speak. A beautiful basket of flowers was presented to Mme. Walker as an expression of esteem. Pictures were made of those who took part in the parade and dancing began again and continued unto the end. Marie Flitzgerald Chambers has just returned from a five weeks' visit to the beautiful home of her parents, Lawyer and Mrs. C. C.-Flitzgerald, in Elk Ridge, near Baltimore. While there she had as her house guest Ellen May Anderson of Boston, in whose honor each week end there were delightful parties. Mrs. Chambers' parents and many friends regret very much that she does not remain in Baltimore. --- Irma Overton turned her gorgeous apartment on St. Nicholas Place into a witches' den Wednesday night for one of those good old fashioned Hallowe'en parties. All of her lights were covered with burnt orange parchment shades, decorated with black silhouettes and the dining-room, the ceiling of which was covered with autumn leaves studded with Jack-o-lanterns and the walls hidden by orange and black streamers decked out in black cats, and goblins, was guarded by an enormous orange and black witch whose face was an electric bulb and body a bridge lamp. On the table were pumpkins, orange and white cakes decorated with pumpkins and of course the cloth was orange and black.

Mrs. Baird in former years headed the Christmas Glee Club which did a similar work, but this year since the group did not reorganize she is attempting it alone. * * * Great things are expected of Ethel. She numbers among her friends the greatest stars on Broadway and it is rumored that no lesser luminary than Jack Osterman will be her mastter of ceremonies. Added to her influence, is the illustrious following of Bojangles, who has as his personal friends the people about whom we read. As for Billy Pierce, he has turned out more than one American and European headliner and the members of the profession always rally to his call. --- The benefit will be a wow and the Smart Set will be out in full to uphold Harlem's end and get a close up of its favorites. * * * A'Lella Walker entertained at Villa Lewaro Wednesday night with an overnight party in honor of her daughter, Mae Walker Perry of Little Rock, Arkansas.

By WILLIAM SMITH THE Just Us Girls composed of young coterie of prominent and pretty maids, held their Fourth Annual Dansante last Friday evening. The reception went over with a bang, judging from the hundreds of dance fanatics who braved the elements to be present, and pay their respects to this popular group of charming damsels. And how they did entertain! A Chamois could not have capered about more friskily than did those who literally swarmed about the dance floor. Really folks, there were so many familiar faces among those present that it would be futile to attempt to name them. The most effective observation we can make is that it was a stupendously successful affair. Let me introduce the Club's personnel, Lillian Waters, President; Blanche Prichette, Vice-President. Billie Fields, Secretary; Grace Martin, Treasurer; Bessie Parker, Charge-de-Affairss; Ruth Taylor, Maime Lee, Dora Woodard. There was quite a number of clubs who paid homage, among them were, Fish, Osbiny, Club 13, Just Us Boys, Jolly, Alpha Whist, R. M.'s, The Wide Awake, Technique Girls.

The formal dansante was held at the spacious newly decorated Elk's Auditorium on West 129th Street, last Thursday evening. Those who were the recipient of an invite had a most glorious evening of continuous merriment, and to those of you who were less fortunate, you can't imagine what you have missed, and how! A silver loving cup was presented by the members to Mr. Johanas Arendell, the club's president, for his untiring efforts in making the club one of the best and most successful in Harlem. After highly commending the members on its success, Captain Harry Miller of Company "I" 369 Infantry, made the presentation. Several of Harlem's favorite clubs were presented to pay homage, among them being Unique, Strollers, Quality Girls, Exclusive, Internue Social, Benedictines Social, Ampico Exclusive, Secret Sixteen, Social Set, and the Renowne Club. The members who are officers are Johanas Arendall, President; Harold Cave, Vice-President; Winthrop Paris Secretary; Alvin Violenus, Treasurer; George Hazel, Maxwell Hunt, Wilfred Joseph, Cecil Violenus, and Carlton Davis. * * * The Colonial Co-ed Club gave a Hallowe'en party at 2857 Eighth Avenue last Friday that was jimmed-up, and I don't mean maybe. The Misses Ruby Green and Thelma Hart rendered several piano selections that were highly appreciated by the dance lovers. Everyone present attested to the fact that they had an evening of perfect bliss. The Club is planning to give another too-bad party soon, and ask all their friends to watch the Tattler for later developments.

SAVOY-TOPICS They were summoned from the hillsides, They were called in from the glens. And the country found them ready At the stirring call for men. Let no tears add to their hardship, As these soldiers pass along, For, although your heart is break- Make it sing this cheery song: 'Keep the home fires burning, While your hearts are yearning, Though your lads march far away They dream of home. There's a silver lining Through the dark clouds shining Turn the dark clouds inside out Till the boys come home." * * * Remember that song? Sure you do. And do you remember what it was all about? That's right; sure, when the United States entered the war to help France, England and little Belgium against the aggressions of Germany. * * * THE NAME OF THE above song is "Keep the Home Fires Burning" and it was one of the many popular war songs ten years ago. Here's another that the boys in khaki of the A. E. F. enjoyed singing: * * * Send Me Away With a Smile Send me away with a smile, little girl, Brush the tears from your eyes of brown. It's all for the best and I'm off with the rest Of the boys from my own home town. It may be forever that we part, little girl. And it may be for only a while, But fight, dear, we must, In our Maker we trust, So send me away with a smile. * * * SUNDAY, NOV. 11th, is "Armistice Day." Do you recall the wild, hilarious celebrating when the news was flashed that Germany had surrendered? Oh, boy, that certainly was good news, and how. We all just were wild with joy. Well, most of the boys are back. Yes, a few are sleeping peacefully across the big pond where the lilies of France bloom and grow. * * * AND SUNDAY, NOV. 11th, this coming Sunday, we're gooner celebrate the signing of the "Armistice." There'll be twelve hours of jollification and jubilation. *** CHARLIE JOHNSON and his famous "Paradise Orchestra" will be one of our big features, and you know what that means. SAVOY World's Finest Ballroom Lenox Avenue, 140-141st Street 3. "A hush is over all the teeming lists, And there is pause, a breath-space in the strife; A spirit brave has passed beyond the mists And vapors that obscure the sun of life. And Ethiopia, with bosom torn, Laments the passing of her noblest born. Oh, Florence, thou has passed beyond life's shore, But still thy voice is ringing o'er the vale. Thou'st taught thy race how high our hopes may soar, And bade us seek the heights, not pause nor fail. We will not fail, we'll heed thy stirring cry, We know thy guiding spirit will be night."

MARSHALL & CAREY PRECENT "Fancy Trimmings" with BILLY HIGGINS AND CAST OF 45 FEATURE PHOTOPLAY RICHARD BARTHELMESS In "WHEEL OF CHANCE" NEXT WEEK—BEGINNING MONDAY, NOVEMBER 12 JESSE SHEPP'S SUNDOWN A Musical Extravaganza The Supreme Photoplay KING OF KINGS Drake and Walker Co. Score Once More THE famous team of Drake and Walker supported by an excellent cast of 60 artists are offering productions of the highest type and more than pleasing the theatregoing public of Harlem. "Go Get Em" is the name of this week's offering. Some of the outstanding features are Yeo Williams and String Beans Price who keep their audience in constant laughter from the rise of the curtain until the final. Jackie Mabley also registers as a fun maker. Other feature members of the cast are as follows: Elnore Wilson, Kitty Arblanche, Arthur Noble, Peg and Peg, Arline Sisco and Drake Bros. Drakes' Cyclonic Jazz Band still hold the feature spot with their Red Hot music. Henry Drake has been fortunate in securing for this week's extra added attraction Ida Anderson and a cast of five who present a dramatic of- fering entitled "All the Way". Miss Anderson who is a very clever performer and plays her part to perfection is well supported. Popular prices prevail. --- THE LINCOLN offers its best show in many months. "Steppin' Around," featuring Bot Williams (Oh, boy), Charles Ray (yes, girls, the Charles Ray—Harlem's John Barrymore), Izzy Rheingold (hotter than hot), Jackle Young, a nifty little stepper; Sonny Mitchell (Post Hole Sam) and Bob Davis (under cork). It's a riot from start to finish. And that bedroom skit—feating the Negro Art Player's "The Rider of Oreams"—is inspiringly beautiful. Hemsley Winfield plays the dreamer, Ardell Mitchell Dabney his hard-woorking wife, and clever Melvina Dabney his small daughter. Albert N. Patrick is the kind old man who calms the troubled waters. George Bancroft's famous "The Diagnet" is the screen attraction for the latter half of the week. THE LAFAYETTE Theatre is featuring Billy Higgins and Ernest Whitman in "Fancy Trimmings" this week, a musical comedy by Addison Carey and Jimmy Marshall. The vehicle is a corking good one with several novel and beautiful situations. Higgins and Whitman usurp the spotlight. The first named scores with his snappy, aggressive comedy mannerisms, while Whitman's singing wins him long and unstinted applause from highly appreciative audiences. Both carry on through from the initial to the final curtain and their work is a real treat. Whitman's greatest triumph is complete when he sings "A King for a Day." While this is his outstanding number, his work all through the production is exxcellent. Others in the cast who deserve mentioning are Natilie Long, Putney Dandridge, Johnny Lee Long, Catherine Patterson, George Statten, the Picklininy Four and Cooper and Thomas. J. M. FASCINATING ETHEL MOSES is one of the beautiful dancing dolls with Lew Leslie's road edition of the "Black Birds." Miss Moses, one of our noted and outstanding beauties, has won several prizes in beauty contests. THE ALHAMBRA Theatre is presenting the usual three-in-one program with the dramatic sketch sandwiched in between the two halves of the musical comedy. Roscoe Montella, Ted Blackman, Doris Rheubottom, Jimmy Jackson, Ida Brown and Amanda Randolph, among others, with the aid of that fast-stepping Alhambra chorus unit, register well with the first-nighters. The dramatic playlet, "The Night Club," presents Andrew Bishop, George Randol, Al Watts, Ted Blackman, Edna Young, Artie Caln and Barry Carter. * * * Contrary to the billings, Frank Radcliff did not open nor play with Leonard Harper's "Monkey Shines" this week at the Howard Theatre. Washington, D.C. "Happy" Holmes was also billed, but did not play.

As soon as they get their throats good and wet with juniper water they begin to weep about the way the profession is going to the dogs and cry for the return for the good old days of yesteryear. It seems to me this continual complaining about current hard times does not square with the facts. I believe a survey of conditions would show that more of our actors are employed now than ever before. I further believe they are in the way of making more money. At present there are at least a hundred performers on Broadway, not counting night club entertainers. At least eighty actors have been employed continuously on Broadway more than six months and some have had more than a year of steady work. Lew Leslie's Blackbirds and "Porgy" furnish handy examples of the comparative prosperity of colored actors.. The latter production, after a phenomenal run in New York, has almost a solid year of booking in America with prospective of a lenghty run in Europe. The blackbirds is a sell out weeks in advance in New York, and Monday night a No. 2 company opened in Springfield, Mass. with more than three months booking in sight. The combined payrolls of the two companies contain about a hundred and forty names. There is a Blackbirds company touring England and the Continent, with Eddie Hunter at its head. Mr. Leslie is contemplating a fourth company for Australia. Add to this list of performers employed on Broadway and abroad close to a hundred continually employed in three Harlem theatres and the hard times talk begins to evaporate in alcoholic gas. Of course there are a few actors on the bricks but there are also a few stevedores out of work. On the whole the colored actor is enjoying an era of prosperity.

Considerable difficulty was experienced with the number two vehicle in Springfield last week. According to rumors, one of the principals went on a rampage and became unmanageable. The production got off to a false start. the opening having to be postponed until Tuesday. Since then it seems that everything has missed fire, or perhaps it were best to say, has backfired. Several changes will be made in the cast. The vehicle needs strengthening and a S.O.S. has been flashed throughout the theatrical world. Sandy Burns, popular Quaker City comedian who was at the Lafayette Theatre last week, was taken ill last Saturday and had to give way to young Apus Brooks, who filled in creditably well.

She had her star lodger, Billy Smith, who used to count nickles for the Interborough, ejected and arrested. Then when the judge was about to send him away for a "few long years" she made a remarkable plea for a suspended sentence, winning her way with a smile and a vail of tears.

In my opinion, any one of the following players from catcher to rightfield, would be likely to break up a game with a four-base smash at any stage of the contest: Catchers: Bob Jordan, Cumberland Valley League; Bizz Mackey, Hillsdale, and the Cuban X Giants; Bill Smith, Cuban X Giants; Pitchers—Harry Buckner (Chicago Unions, Columbia and Cuban X Giants); George Stovey (Newark International League and Cuban X Giants); Rogan, Kansas City Monarchs; Dan McClellan (Philadelphia and Cuban X Giants); Joe Williams (Lincoln Giants and Homestead Grays); First Base—Carr or Canady of the Atlantic City and Hillsdale teams; Second Base—Frank Grant (Buffalo of the International League and Cuban X Giants); Third Base—Beckwith, Homestead Grays; Shortstop—Home Run Johnson; Fielders—John Patterson, Oscar Charleston, Pete Hill and Stearns of Detroit. Star Colored Heavyweights at Olympia A. C. Saturday Night Heavyweights will appear in the three ten-round bouts arranged by Gus Amos for the weekly show at the Olympia A. C. in Harlem, Saturday night Tiger Payne, Ncgro battler of Australia, will meet George La Rocco in the final event. "Big Bill" Hartwell of Kansas City will oppose Jack Rozier of Philadelphia in the semi-final and Al Fay, Jack Kearn's latest find, will tackle "Wild Jim" Griffin of Houston, Texas, in the first ten. The two four-round preliminary contests will bring together a quarter of welterweights paired as follows: Hugo Jefferson of Harlem vs. Fernando Gonzales of Mexico, and Gene Diperi, East Side, vs. Johnny Walker, Harlem. 10 CLARENCE (Fats) JENKINS for over a decade one of the greatest basketball players mainspring of the "Rens." MIGHTY RENAISSANCE FIVE DEFEAT TWO STRONG RIVALS Take Crack Union City Reds 38-30, and Beat Andy Cohen's All Stars by Ten Point Margin Andy Cohen, popular Jewish idol of the New York Giants baseball team, turned basketball player for ten minutes last Sunday night and took the town by storm. The colorful little Hebrew treked to the lair of the "Rens", World's colored professional basketball champions, and after making himself acquainted with "Doc" Jamison, his old trainer and the rest of the "Rens", proceeded to play basketball,—and nothing else but. The crowd was with the giant ball star, and when he dropped a pretty basket from scrimmage with a lusty "Get in, Honey," he sold himself to Harlemites as few visiting players have ever done. A few seconds later he was fouled, and with traditional Jewish acumen (some thought he labored under the impression he was playing amateur ball), he asked 'Dutch' if he was to be allowed two tries from the fifteen foot line and the fans howled as he made it good. But Andy knows his onions as few farmers do, after ten minutes of cyclonic work, he motioned for a substitute and walked off the court breathing like a shunting engine,—but the hero of the night nevertheless. Bob, started Eddie Monroe, and he kid played one sweet game in his first full time assignment since joining the squad. "Fats" Jenkins, of course was the big star of the night, Ricks and Sanders played nice ball while they were in there. The game against Union City, one of the five greatest teams in the world, was a sure 'nuff thriller. Johnny Beckman, Tony Calland, Joe Brennan, and Al Kellett, were on the team that went down before the speedy Colored champions last Sunday afternoon. Harold Mayers hurt a finger in this hectic shindy causing him to layoff during the night tilt at home. In a fast and well played preliminary game, the Scholastics worsted the St. Ambrose amateur five 29-19. For this Sunday night's attraction the management has secured the Xavier WhirIminds of Brooklyn. The nightcap game ended 41-31 in favor of Renaissance. The lineup follows. Chocolate to Meet Suggs in Havana Cuba Jess McMahon, promoter of the New York Coliscum, will make a flying visit to Havana to stage a battle between Kid Chocolate and Chick Suggs, the first week in December. McMahon was delegated to get the match by the Cuban promoters who advised him that the bout would draw 50,000 persons. The local promoter said yesterday he would make the trip by rail and airplane as he expects to begin operations at the Coliseum soon after New Year's Day, and desires to stay away from this city as little as possible. Chocolate will leave for his home after his battle with Pinkey Silverberg on the Fifth Avenue Boys' gala boxing program at the St. Nicholas Arena Thursday. The news of Chicolate's successive victories here has made him an idol with his townspeople who wished him to leave at once for Havana. His contracts for the Grande and Silverberg bouts prevented this. Collegians Swamp Weidman Boys Five Meet Henry Street Five on 16th, Buffaloes December 4th Displaying the same snappy form of basketball that has characterized all of their early season tilts, the Collegians swamped the Weidman Boys Five on their home court last Friday night, 63-31.

ATLANTIC CITY THE TOMB OF MUHAMMAD. GHOSTS and hoblins of every description stalked through this sandy strip Wednesday night. From early dawn to late midnight school children fought "sham battles" with phantom and vanishing personalities. From midnight until . . . grownups who felt a freakish urge disported themselves with reckless abandon. The usual gate crashing, window smashing, ash-can tumbling . . . just havoc in general made one think of Sherman's raid to the sea. Over at the Soldiers' Home the Mouse Social Club did a cheese and cracker flirtation in true Mardi Gras - style. The Elks' Home, Waltz Dream, Burton's Cottage and Fitzgerald's saw similar activities. The one and only cry now is, "On to Washington." Most every interest is subordinated to that of politics. Seems as though one cannot even muster a decent "shindig." --- Aside from the Hallowe'en spirit, which was marred by the murder of a young man 20 years of age, social activity found itself submerged in a rainy, murky, blues-gathering atmosphere. However, there were a new grave ones. Among them Mr. George Willis, local business man, who slipped away to Boston and married Mrs. Sallie Blackwell. After a short stay in the Hub the bride and groom returned to Atlantic City. On Saturday evening a reception took place at the home of the groom, Washington and Hobart avenues. Those attending were: Mrs. Anna Dempsey, Boston;; Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Willis, father and mother of the groom Mrs. J. L. Everett, Mrs. Ida Marshall, Mr. Johnson Reeves, Mr. and Mrs. D. A.

It was really a red dance like no one else can give but the Gauchos. The music for the occasion was dispenced by the Phillips' Orchestra known from coast to coast as the king of syncopation.

Porters who belong to the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters are facing discrimination and even discharge at the Long Island City yards when they turn down the Pullman ballot agent. District Supt. Watson, behind a mahogany desk in the great Pennsylvania terminal, refused to affirm or deny these reports. "These complaints come from disgruntled men," he replied. "The Pullman Co. is paying no attention to them. If the porters don't want to vote in the employees' election, they don't have to. I'm not forcing them to." But out at Long Island City porters run the full gamut of the Pullman Co.'s agents, both white and black. On the walls are posters announcing the elections and instructing porters to vote. Voting is done in the Pullman offices and counted by Pullman officials. On all sides is the pressure of the great monopoly, directing its employees to take part in a fake election for men unknown to the majority of the workers on the Pullman cars. "I refuse to say anything about it," shot back Watson when cornered on the question of discrimination against Brotherhood porters. "See our Chicago headquarters." At the Long Island City terminal Supt. Crawford was more obliging. "Of course, our employees are expected to participate in our employee' elections," he explained suavely. Peeking into his desk, he displayed a fat roll of applications for jobs. "Why, man, there are hundreds of darkies anxious to get those jobs!" he remarked. "Why shouldn't our employee cooperate." "People don't seem to realize what a good job a darkie has with us if he keeps his manners and knows how to treat white people. Look here, a letter from a bunch of Standard Oil officials. They're going up in the White Mountains on a shooting party and want two special porters. Those boys will make a bad of just, I'm telling you." Outside Crawford's office a crowd of Negroes were milling around. In another large room, bare save for plain benches, scores sat around, reading or talking. They were the unemployed men waiting for runs or to file applications for work. "We start our men off at $72 a month," Crawford said as he looked out upon the jobless black men. "If they're real smart migrants through they make real money. Shining shoes is usually good for two bills. Meeting a passenger with a smile and taking his grip half way down the station means another good tip. Of course the wages don't sound so big, but a real clever shine can make good." Porters are voting heavily in the elections for the Pullman Company union. If Crawford is to be believed. In his office, clerks were talking votes. "At least 92 per cent of the men will vote before election closes," he said. No issues are before the voters nor is there any contest between the candidates. The Negroes on the ballot are all good. Uncle Titus. No matter who wins. Pullman can't lose. President A. Philip Randolph of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Printers is advising porters to abstain from voting. He points out that the Fulman Co. is able to get legal recognition for the late union if a majority of employees succumb to company influence and threats, despite the fact that the Brotherhood claims a majority of the 12000 porters and maids within its ranks.

New Music for Elbon Theatre An Invitation The Eblon Theatre will be a surprise to its patrons Sunday. It will neither look the same nor sound the same. The entire interior of the theatre has been redecorated in a polychrome scheme, with pink, gold and gray as the colors. The ceiling and upper portion of the sidewalls is in a delicate shade of pink with the lower portions of the sidewalls in gray. Gold pilasters give a luxurious, semi-Oriental tone to the entire color scheme, and the lights heighten the tone. The change in sound will be caused by the change from orchestral music to organ. Not the ordinary photo-organ generally in use in suburban houses, but a genuine Wicks pipe organ, one of the finest built in America, which in itself sets the purchaser back $15,000. The organ console has 52 stops, the came as those used in the downtown theatres, and these will be manipulated by some of the best organists in the city, including Prof. R. G. Jackson, a nationally recognized artist. Another feature is the new cooling and ventilating system which changes the air in the theatre every three minutes. All these new features, installed at an enormous expense by Mr. Hower (Gap) Eblon, proprietor of the theatre, are in commemoration of the sixth anniversary of the opening of the house. Ever since the opening date Mr. Ebion has kept up in every way with the new ideas in his business. His is a Paramount house, getting all big Paramount features immediately following their downtown runs. But he also gets the best of all the other releases for his patrons, most of whom are personal friends of either Jap himself or his charming wife, Mrs. Bessie Ebion, who as the custodian of the box office dispenses tickets with a pleasant smile and a nod for friends and strangers alike. Mr. Eblon is urging his patrons to attend the Sunday matinee, where possible, rather than the night shows, as there are numbers of folks who find it impossible to attend the matinees. This makes a crowded condition at night that Mr. Eblon would like to avoid. Besides, the matinee folks will be able to more fully appreciate the organ concert and the new beauty of the house. The doors are open at 1:45 p. m. BACK STAGE (Continued from Page 2) Frank Radcliff has teamed with Bod Harris and Sammy Vandernurst.

She also made observations in dietetics at the Metabolism Laboratory of the Ivans Memorial Hospital, also in Boston. --- The Department of Home Economics is a branch of the College of Applied Science with the same requirements for admission and standards of work. Graduates of the department have no difficulty in securing positions as teachers as well as professional diplomas. ```markdown ``` The political Science Club of Howard University launched its campaign for President of the United States, Monday, in Andrew Ranson Memorial Chapel. The speaker was Dr. J. B. Mathews, president of the World's Youth Peace Movement and member of the faculty of the Howard School of Religion. Dr. Mathews expressed the hope that the large attendance was indicative of political interest. --- Dr. Mathews called attention to two elements noted in the delegates to the World's Youth Peace Conference, held during the past summer in Holland, and over which he presided, namely, the scientific mindedness of the privileged class and the zeal of the radical group. Dr. Mathews concluded with the suggestion that American students should combine these two elements, and in so doing might be of immense value in the modern state. --- Mr. Ralph Bunche, instructor in Political Science had the following comment to make concerning the department and its future means and purposes: In the first place it is planned to organize the curriculum in such a way as to provide, for students who desire an opportunity to major in Political Science. The divisions of Municipal and State, the National Government, and Political Theory, both modern and National including American relations and International law will afford ample opportunity for major work. --- The subject of Political Science at Howard University has been heretofore none to popular for reasons yet to be determined. In most universities, however, Political Science is one of the strongest courses of the curriculum. The reason is that it is a training for citizenship, irrespective of whether one plans to be a musician, butcher, baker, or candlestick maker. --- rights and privileges are derived from citizenship and it is impossible fully to be informed of such rights and privileges without a thorough understanding of citizenship. It is ridiculous to say that it is possible for a student holding a Bachelor of Arts Degree as a liberal education if he does not know the principles upon which the government is based and the manner in which it functions. Morgan College PRESIDENT John O. Spencer received a communication recently from the American Medical Association informing him that Morgan is listed among it's list of approved colleges of arts and sciences. This means that Morgan is now rated as "Class A" by the following agencies: State Department of Education in Maryland and other States; The Association of American Colleges in the Middle Atlantic States and Maryland; American Council on Education; University Senate. Board of Education of the M. E. Church and the American Fedical Association. There was much rejoicing on the part of students and teachers when this announcement was made. ```markdown ``` At 3 p. in. on October 31st the ground breaking ceremonies took place on the site of the proposed $100,000 dormitory for men. The procession from the assembly hall to the site was load by Dr. Charles W. Baldwin, President of the Board of Trustees, after whom the building will be enamed. Short addresses were delivered by President Spencer, Dr. Baldwin, Rev. A. J. Mitchell, Field Secretary; Bishop A. L. Gaines of the A. M. E. Church and Dr. William S. Brovard, Secretary of the Board of Education, M. W.

The debating teams are getting in trim and expect to challenge Lincoln University, Howard University, Virginia Union University and other nearby colleges. The literary societies held a join open forum on the day preceding the general election. They discussed the presidential candidates and the general political situation of the country. Students in Political and Social Sciences load in the discussions. Unusual enthusiasm is being shown in the music department. The chorus, orchestra and quartet are busy preparing for concerts to be given in Baltimore and Washington. * * * The Lincoln lion left his habitat in Penn's Woods and took to the warpath. He was ready for a flight. He wanted a flight. He got one. He got more than he wanted. The Morgan Grizzly called his bluff, and how! The bear smashed, ripped, clawed and passed his way to the only touchdown of the game about the middle of the first quarter. The score came as the culmination of a beautiful 75-yard advance. With fourth down and four to go, Hicks made good on a smash straight through the center of the lion's defense. A pass from Pinky Clark, admittedly one of the best passers in the East, to Lawless accounted for the extra point. --- Then the battle began anew. For the next three periods both teams were at each other's throats. Neither could keep the upper hand for long. They ripped, pinned, manhed, kicked—but all to no avail. In the final quarter the lion opened up a desperate pawning game in an effort to get himself something, but the bear's secondary defense woke up just in time to prevent this.
