If on the Road we'd try to make a friend Of every lonely heart we chance to meet, The Road would hide a treasure 'round each bend And we would tread the way with eager feet." (Now what do you say to this? Wouldn't you like to "own" a little girl like this one? You would, I know, but—there are conditions.) "Dear Editor—Perhaps you have a young man (non-professional) on your list of Lonesome Hearts whose life I may be able to complete and who can make me happy. I want someone I can love tenderly and wholeheartedly and who will reciprocate the same devotion to me. He must be on-the-level clean, ambitious, intelligent, and have some outlook for the future. "I am a home girl; a great lover of outdoor sports, music, and good humor. My age is twenty-three; height, five feet; am nicely proportioned; have olive complexion and chestnut hair. I am not pretty, but said to have an asset when appearance is regarded. As to my qualities, character, and efficiency. I would rather for 'whom it may concern' to draw his own conclusions after an acquaintance." --- * * (Nice husbands are in demand but like silver and gold, not easy to obtain; however, "such as I have . . .") "While sitting here reading the Tattler I happened to run across your L. H. column, so I thought I would try my luck, to see if I could find a nice husband.

She prefers the man who handsome does, rather than handsome is.) "I am very lonesome and would appreciate corresponding with a ARE YOU LONELY? Then Join the WASHINGTON SOCIAL CLUB!

"I am brownskin, black eyes, five ft. 6 in., and 17 years old. Not considered bad looking." * * * (Life without hope is unbearable. Give these four Lonely Hearts something to hope for, even if it's only a letter.) "This is the second copy of your Lonely Heart column I have seen and I have become interested in it "I happen to be a young man that's lonely and have no friends. At the present time I am confined in prison. All that I see is gray walls and prison bars, nothing else but four lonely walls. I have no one to write to me or for me to write to. This is my first downfall in society and I have a few more months to stay here. Have seen the great work that you have done for others and I am wondering if you would do as much for me. "I am five ft. 3, weigh 135 lbs. brownskin, black straight hair. Am passable. Would like a passable brownskin, around the age of 22-27. as I am 28." "I am so lonesome, oh, so lonesome. Please hear my plea and send to me some nice girl, 19-20. It makes no difference as long as she is sweet and brownskin. "I am 21, light complexion, black curly hair, five ft. 4 in. Occupation is a chauffeur and prize fighter when I am in the street. Not that I am in jail all the time. This is my first time and I hope it is my last! "Jackie, you have done noble deeds for other; unfortunate ones, so please don't turn me down. I have seen my mistakes and I want to turn over a new leaf and start life anew. All I need is a girl companion that will write to me. While others get mail. I don't." "Dearest Jackie—I'm communicating with you for a reason which has just occurred to me, thanks to the Tattler. I'm getting awful lonesome for a companion—very lonesome for a true pal and friend who will not think bad of a mistake which recently landed me in a 'reformatory.' Naturally one is in some way unfortunate, but it seems to be pinned on me—to my greatest sorrow has brought me a sentence of fourteen months. Soon to be released in fact, very soon, although that can't come soon enough for me. I sure feel mighty downhearted at thinking of what you may think of me—in jail! This is my first and going to be my last, happen what may. "Enough of my present circumstances and something of myself. I'm a musician by trade and an all around good sport; also sociable with everyone. I'm five ft. 7 in. tall, light complexioned, 21 years of age, fairly good-looking, chestnut colored hair. "I would like very much to meet one whom you think best suited for me." "I'm just one more of the many that are lonesome. This is the third time I have come to you for help but they all prove fruitless, but I trust this time won't be in vain. "Keeping company with the wrong people caused me to be deprived of my freedom. Will be free Christmas. Am a musician and poet, 30 years old. five ft. 8 in. tall, weigh 160 lbs.; light brownskin, neat dresser and fairly good learning. Would like to correspond with someone who is nice." I wish I could write "stamped envelope" in letters as large as the whole Tattler magazine in the L. H. C. so that the readers might remember to send them along when they write; also "clipping." Many tell me they are sending them and then promptly forget it. * * * (Does the young lady think her Prince Charming will come along? If she does, well. . . . "As a man thinketh, etc.") "I hope you can do something for lonely me. Could you find me a pal to write and cheer me up once in a while? "Have black bobbed hair, light brownskin and weigh 145 lbs.. five ft. 6 in. tall. Fond of reading and enjoy all sports. "Hope you can find me a congenial friend." (Courage is a quality that we all have but many do not realize it. Sometimes we have to do much coaxing before it will make its appearance.) "I read the L. H. C. every week and have been trying to get up enough courage to write you and ask for help. "Am 27 years old, brownskin. weigh 130 lbs. and about five ft. 2 in. tall. Would like to correspond with a gentleman between the ages of 30-35—perhaps a widower with a baby, as I am very fond of children. "Wishing you much success in your wonderful work, etc." Please send clipping and date of issue if you desire a reply within a reasonable time. No charge is made for space given a letter in the Lonesome Heart Column. It should, however, be made as short and interesting as possible. The more interesting it is, the greater chances there are for replies. Everyone likes to read letters that are different. (Young man seeks religious type to blend in with his own personality.) "I do hope that you may be able to help me in finding a companion. "Am a young man of 28 summers and looking for a quiet girl 18-24 years; one who is willing to consider a home. A girl with one child is all right (if she has no husband.) "I have a very steady job and make a good salary, five ft. 4 in.. dark brown and looks—well, not so good, not so bad. Prefer a girl with Christian training as I, myself, am a Christian." (A note of appreciation is always welcome in the Tattler.) "I sincerely thank you for forwarding the letter to party concerned; also for your promptness. "Really it is good of the Tattler to publish an article free of charge, I dare say this will help many Lonesome Hearts to meet their future friends." (Coming from the state of Missouri, no doubt an effort would have to be made to show this young man.) "I am very lonesome and would like to correspond with some nice looking young lady between the ages of 16-29. She must be settle-minded. Am looking for one who would share life with me regardless of how hard the circumstances might be. "I am not hard to please and I can say that whoever the young lady may be, she would find me sticking to the end. Am a medium brown, five ft. 6, dark brown eyes. As far as looks are concerned, I presume I can pass. Dress neatly and am a chauffeur. Have had legal training."

What The "Hallelujah"! ALLELUJAH, the much-advertised Metro-Goldwyn Mayer all talking-singing-dancing drama, directed by the much-lauded King Vidor, is very much over-advertised. It is an excellent example of a good opportunity for drama and entertainment sacrificed by inept playsmiths on the altar of attempted verismilitude. It is a picture consisting of a series of box office compromises which prevent it from emerging wholly from mediocrity, save in spots. Those who perpetrated and filmed the script can certainly not be accused of any great dramatic ingenuity, or more than a superficial understanding of the material from which they essayed to mould a great picture. Anyone thoroughly acquainted with the life and antics of the Negro plantation rustics and river roustabouts, clergymen, evangelists, gamblers and prostitutes, feels upon emerging from the theater after viewing "Hallelujah" that he has been taken in by clever advertising. Contrary to the laudatory reviews it has received, the picture falls far short of greatness, and we venture to say that had the players been Caucasians and the story woven around Caucasians of the same cultural level, it would have received scant praise from critics who are singing its praises. Strange to say, a large number of otherwise intelligent Negroes have been taken in by the clever advertising and the fact that the players are Negroes. Needless to say, the color or race of the actors has nothing to do either with the merits of the play or of the acting. The comments of most Negroes seem to be colored by race feeling. Where they should be considering the picture as drama, they are viewing it as advertising-propaganda. Praise the Lord! Negroes are featured in an all-talking picture playing to capacity houses! It must be good! Or bad! A large number of the Negro newspapers seem to have bodily lifted the press agent's boost blurbs from his stereotyped copy and put it on their theatrical pages. Certainly the similarity of their comments is highly suggestive of such shoddy criticism. Of course such journalism is not wholly to be unexpected since a large number of our newspapermen have carried the traditions of slavery into the editorial office. Many of them seem to be of the opinion that Ethics is the name of a new card game or a race horse. The story of "Hallelujah" is so well known, or will soon be so well known, that there is no need of utilizing space narrating it here. Let us, rather, proceed to the main points of criticism, purely from the point of view of drama. Later on we shall discuss it from another angle. Everywhere throughout the picture is the hand of the white man who has observed with his eye but not with his heart. It is a well known fact that most whites and Negroes will have an entirely different conception of the same event. What is tragic to one, may be comic to the other, and vice versa. Generally speaking, the Caucasian, particularly in the country, looks upon a person of darker skin and Ethiopian origin as a sort of primitive child, unwitting of his way, and a slave, alternately, to religious ecstasy and animal passion. In a measure this is true of the Negro because it is in a measure true of all human beings; but the Negro, like every other person, has many sides, both intellectual and animal. Evidence of these familiar Nordic misconceptions is plentiful in "Hallelujah." For instance, the fact is advertised that the Negro actors are just types picked up casually, as if to say that any Negro anywhere is an actor. The Aframerican is, we are told, a natural-born actor, just as he is a natural-born singer and dancer. Negroes themselves know this to be nonsense, but white people do not, generally speaking, and pictures are produced for white people. In this connection, it is significant that in none of these pictures do we find the stars advertised outside of the theaters as we find white stars advertised. When they are Negroes, they're not supposed to be stars. They're just types! With the aforementioned stereotype of the dark brethren firmly fixed in what passes for their minds, it is not strange that the white producers and directors have the characters and extras bursting into song on every and any occasion. One is led to believe that if a group of Negroes had gone abroad on the Graf Zeppelin they would have made the welkin ring with "All God's Chillun Got Wings" or a more modern variation on "Thow Out the Life Line." Those who have really studied the rustic Negroes on their native heaths and actually shared their lives know that their existence is not one continual round of spirituals, work songs and clog dancing. Largely because of these misconceptions and the finan- The Interstate Jattler te Tattler Publishing Co., Inc., 2296 Seventh Avenue, New York, N. Y. k, N. Y., under the act of March 8, 1878. Subscription rate $3.50 per y The "Halle Reflections on King Vidor's All-Colored "Masterpiece" By SAMUEL I. BROOKS cal considerations that flow therefrom, the picture impresses the keen observer as being altogether too slick. The exceedingly simple plot rolls off too easily to seem to possess the real juices of life, thus lending the feeling of unauthenticity. As sheer entertainment—which it very largely and obviously aspires to be—it is inferior to "Hearts in Dixie." The picture is cluttered with incongruities so apparent that one marvels at the fact that they escaped the notice of the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer experts. For example, Zeke while clearly less strongly built than Hot Shot, the gambler, takes a revolver away from the latter after he has drawn it and is pointing it at the rustic. It is doubtful whether the most ignorant Negro in Mississippi is fool-hardy enough to do that, even if he had lost all of his crap money. It is possible but improbable, and Adolphus William Ward tells us that "The action of a drama, besides being one and complete in itself, ought likewise to be probable." Then, too, when one considers that the ignorant Zeke suddenly displays a sufficient knowledge of the ways of gambling to demand that Hot Spot show him his crooked dice (the substitution of which has been undetected), one begins to feel that he would hardly be so easily inveigled into a crap game with a city slicker. Country people are invariably more suspicious of gamblers, sports and wise-guys than urbanites are. Again, when Zeke, now an evangelist, enters a town where a great concourse of religious Negroes is awaiting. Chick and Hot Shot loudly ridicule him and continue until Zeke gets off his horse and rushes at them. Now this is absolutely contrary to the behavior of individuals in a crowd, unless they are mentally unbalanced. Despite personal prejudices, it requires the courage of a lion and the boldness of a fool to heckle the idol of a crowd while you're in that crowd. It just isn't done, even by Mississippi Negroes. Still again, when Hot Shot seeks to restrain Chick from attending the revival, she turns upon him and with apparent ease beats him unconscious with a poker. Now Chick is a slight girl while Hot Shot is a big, burly man. It is possible for such a thing to happen but very improbable. The wondering observer marvels that Chick leaves home with Hot Shot after her husband (or man) Zeke comes home from work, whereas they had all day to get away while he was busy at the mill. Both Chick and Hot Shot are supposed to be sharpers whose specialty is trimming suckers, and yet they act like high school children stealing away to a rendezvous in the forest. Consider also what then happens: Hot Shot's wagon breaks down, and Chick, who has been wounded by a bullet from Zeke's gun, is thrown to the ground. Hot Shot drives wildly onward as best he can with three wheels, and Zeke coming up kneels by Chick. She takes about four or five minutes to die. And yet, strange to relate, when Zeke finally leaves the body of his beloved and starts hunting for Hot Shot, there stands the gentleman within a few paces of him! Most incredible behavior! Then we see Hot Shot hastening to unhitch his horse from the broken buggy while Zeke approaches. One immediately is puzzled to know what Hot Shot was doing ALL COPY FOR THIS PUBLICATION MUST BE IN THIS OFFICE BY SATURDAY MORNING OR IT WILL NOT BE RUN.

He certainly knew Zeke's temper well enough by that time to have used every spare minute to his advantage. His actions hardly fit the character he is portraying. Another improbability crops up in connection with Zeke going to prison. He kills his own brother in a honky tonk right in the heart of town and doesn't serve a day for it. Indeed, he isn't even arrested. On the other hand, he kills his wife (or woman) and her lover in the depths of a swamp where some time would expire before their recovery, and not only is arrested but is sent to prison. Evidently he only serves a few weeks or months for his crime because we see him returning home, twanging his banjo and looking no different than he did before serving his sentence. Contrary to the opinion of most of the white critics which was what one would naturally expect it to be, there is nothing extraordinary about the acting in "Hellelujah." It is good and that's about the best one can say for it. Miss Nina Mae McKinney's performance does not meet the requirements of the character she portrays. She IS WORDY and active but crude and possesses no subtlety. After all, we do expect some subtlety in scarlet ladies, at least in the theater. The bewhiskered Harry Gray, who now struts around Harlem in a plug hat and cutaway coat reminiscent of the days when minstrelsy was in flower and with ill-concealed pleasure listens to the peas of praise from his flattering public, is visually a success as a parson or rather as a burlesque of a parson. He ought to be with Mack Sennett. Fannie Belle de Knight is very good as Mammy and Everett McGarrity plays the part of Spunk, the beloved brother and son quite creditably. Victoria Spivey, however, was something of a disappointment. In justice to her, she was probably following her lines and the directions given her. Daniel Haynes is a good actor but strangely enough one does not find his Zeke convincing. This is probably due to the fact that he was the wrong type for the part, which obviously called for a big, hulking, country lout type with seemingly dim intelligence. Haynes, on the contrary is almost ascetic in appearance and fairly radiates intelligence. He was as out of place as Zeke as Lon Chaney would be as a choir boy. Marcus Garvey as Adonis or Mamie Smith as Joan of Arc. The actor who was most appropriate for his part and played it best was William Fontaine. He fairly oozed authenticity. He is the ideal gambler and all-around sharper, with the exceptions noted which are doubtless the fault of the director. All in all. "Hallelujah" is disappointing. Too much is crowded into it. it is full of misconceptions, inconsistencies and incongruities. It is just a good drama gone wrong. Stepping now from drama to the larger issue, some people have stated that the picture libels the Negro. That is untrue because it would be difficult to libel the Negro or any other human group. All peoples have their heights and their depths, their wisdom and their stupidity. About the only fault a Negro can find with "Halleluffiah" is that it lays exclusive emphasis on one side of the Negro, dealing with one class of Negroes, and largely portraying the sort of thing that the bulk of Negroes are trying to get away from. Since it was produced by white people, however, this was to be expected. Nevertheless, the great majority of Negroes is sick and tired of being portrayed exclusively as semi-gorillas, wildly shouting, singing and dancing the whole day and night through. In closing it might be well to comment on the criticisms hurled against the Lafayette Theater for allegedly aiding and abetting segregation by having a premier of the picture in Harlem as well as on Broadway. Such criticisms are nonsensical. From a business viewpoint (and that is what the theater management must consider above all) it was an excellent move. A large number of Negroes were aching to see the picture and the Lafayette management brought it where they could see it with the least effort. Negroes went down town to the Embassy to see the picture, and while they were segregated in that subtle manner at which some theatrical ticket sellers are past masters, this is but the usual procedure at that theater. The Lafayette Theater is first and foremost a business concern. It did not make the picture or hire the actors; it merely supplied a demand for it on the part of the population by which it is surrounded. Instead of being criticized for bringing the picture to Harlem for its premier, the Lafayette Theater should be highly commended.

For some reason quite beyond me, I am supposed to be incapable of enjoying any form of amusement that is not sophisticated to the nth degree.

But the joke is on everybody except me. I like it so much that I am extending my three weeks to four. Now, laugh that off. I like it for many reasons that are nobody's business, however here are a few: 1. Because the Harry Chandlers are the most delightful couple I have met in ages, and their home reminds me of a Harlem apartment and their children let me kiss them as much as I please. 2. Because Bobbie Bamfield can drive from Charlotte to Seabreeze in four hours flat, and his hair curls out of this world, and he talks geechee for me. 3. Because there isn't a single bell in the whole of Russell's Hotel and Mrs. Russell lets me sleep until I wake up. 4. Because the gentlemen of North Carolina come calling on me with pistols. 5. Because Dr. Mason hasn't pronounced an R in life and Alice Mason is truly beautiful. 6. Because the Sound is so near the Ocean. 7. Because Margaret Greene is the most adorable tomboy. 8. Because all the Howe boys, Clarence, Lawrence and Wilson decided to visit their mother while I was here. 9. Because I can eat oysters in August. 10. Because all corn is not on the cob. 15. Because Grover Freeman lets me drive his roadster. 34. Because the sweetest men in the world come from North Carolina. 35. Because there is always a sea breeze at Seabreeze. Mrs. Blanche V.

King Vidor's Ser "Halle THE INTER-STATE TATTLER ABOUT MUSICIANS Aubrey Brooks There is a readjustment going on among the musicians, that should not cause any undue alarm, because we must realize that this old world in which we live is always under readjustment of one kind or another and during each readjustment, there must be some sufferers while others are benefited. New York City has long been over crowded with musicians. Pictured at the place of gold, every musician who could possibly make New York his temporary stopping place has done so with the main idea of making plenty of money. The first effect of overcrowding was noticeable when prices took tremendous drops. In some cases study engagements that paid the union scale fell below, with many applicants for the engagements. The next noticeable sign was the sudden migration to Europe of musicians who formerly considered America a more lucrative field. The climax came, however, when mechanical inventions ousted hundreds of musicians from their positions. Lowered prices, limited engagements, and an overcrowded field have driven many of the profession into other lines. Some will make their departure permanent; others will return; but the benefitting result will be to thin the ranks and relieve the situation. Music as a profession is very much alive in spite of mechanical inventions. With fewer in the field, there is bound to be more work for the individual, and increased demand will effect an increase in salaries. So after all the fellows who can stick it out will find that life will be one sweet tune after another. until the next readjustment period. ```markdown ``` We received a post card from Carl T.

WEEK COMMENCING MONDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 2 THE FASTEST, FUNNIEST, MOST TUNEFUL MUSICAL REVUE EVER PRESENTED LEW LESLIE'S BLACKBIRDS The SENSATION OF TWO CONTINENTS 14 months New York 3 months Boston 3 months Philadelphia In My Opinion THE ultimate fate of Alonzo Parham, recently appointed to the U. S. Military Academy, seems to be worrying some people, usually referred to as nosies and busy-bodies, more than it is the person directly concerned. A former soldier of Fort Benning, Ga., writes: "In my camp there was a colored captain. The white officers had nothing to do with him beyond the barest civilities. Whenever a social affair was held, which he was entitled to attend, it was always regretted that he had to be on duty at the time. It was better for Parham if he should resign now instead of being frozen out later." This writer is prompted to say "stuff and nonsense!" or some expression even more descriptive of contempt for all such "cracker" advice. Had the U. S. adapted such a fatalistic attitude instead of resenting the injustice of Great Britain's strong arm tactics prior to the Revolution, the probability is that this country may have served indefinitely as a "land of cotton" and dumping ground for continental tea. If that imposes too much on the imagination of the reader, allow me to mention J. A. Rogers, who has accomplished more in this writer's estimation than anyone else in creating for the masses a greater race consciousness and a genuine appreciation of the Negro's historical background. Had Rogers tacitly accepted this theory of retirement in the face of probable defeat, his excellent piece of work on anthropology would have been lost to a needy public (From Super-Man to Man), not only Rogers, but countless others each rendering a great service in his respective field. Not long ago, the British Labor Party, under the leadership of Ramsey MacDonald, emerged in a glorious victory over the conservatives in Parliament. The Working man's group, twenty-nine years ago, held only two seats in Parliament. At this time, it is the leading body, despite the fact that it has met with numerous defeats and continual discouragement. It has marched on, triumphantly, ignoring insult and fighting opposition. Unless the American Negro follows this example, the present position in society will undoubtedly become stationary. "Hokom," some may say. But it cannot be denied that a number of Harlemites are imbued with that "Stepin Fetchit" capacity of dreamy case and uninterrupted sleep that would eventually spell non-recognition due to unimportant production. Congressman DePriest has set an admirable precedent, not only by his nomination of these young men, but also by his immediate announcement to nominate others in the places of those failing to qualify.

West Indian Fighters Among World's Best PETER JACKSON,—"Believe it or not, Ripley," was not a native Australian, but was a full blooded West Indian born in St. Croix, former Danish West Indian Island Group now owned and controlled by the United States.

Page Twelve West Ind PETER JACKSON,—"Believeley," was not a native Auste a full blooded West India Croix, former Danish West Group now owned and con United States. In any discussion of fighting men, the West Indian cannot except in the case of total ignorant ject matter under discussion. Joe Wallcott, Belfield Walcott, Gans, Jamaica Kid, Larry Estridg teau, Leo Johnson, Ansell Bell, Roleaux Saguero, Clem Johnson, B Jimmy Brown, Kid Bates, and Your form a partial list of the type of two fisted gentry that come to these shores from the West Indies in search of fame and fortune inside the roped arena. Contrary to general opinion, Sam Langford and George Dixon were not West Indians, both hailing from bleak Nova Scotia; Langford from the town of Weymouth, and the beloved "Little Chocolate" from Halifax. Jackson (never a champion)—was perhaps the greatest heavyweight that ever lived, only the marvelous Jack Johnson remaining to dispute the issue with him in the opinion of this writer. He had range, height, sufficient weight, and the most magnificent build imaginable. For want of another word, "Misfortune" fits the case of this gallant West Indian superman. Veteran ring followers still point with pride to Peter Jackson when they are holding up a model for aspiring young heavyweights of the day to copy. Jackson developed a fighting technique that none of his contemporaries or successors ever seemed able to improve upon to a larger or lesser degree. He was a two-fisted fighter who combined a deadly punch with ringcraft and resourcefulness to a bewildering degree. He was a master boxer and a staggering hitter. As an instructor he bequeathed some notable pupils to fistiana, among them the great "BOB FITZSIMMONS" Jim Hall, Starlight, and Frank Slavin. ```markdown ``` Fitz's Great Tribute ```markdown ``` Fitz paid a hight tribute to Jackson when asked to fight him after his arrival in this country, by stating, "Peter Jackson is the greatest fighter that ever breathed. He's the daddy of them all, and for that reason and no other,—I don't care to meet him." Fitzsimmons, contrary to the opinion of most present day sport writers—Black and White—knew in his heart and soul that the brilliant West Indian fighter was the better man of the two, and possessed the rare courage to say so in print that will never die as long as boxing is discussed and written. We sometimes feel like telling most of the sport scribes to go "to school," when it comes to telling the truth about correct sayings and opinions of fighters of the past half century and less. Most of them revel in dishing out what they term "Human Interest" sidelights of a scrap that wouldn't be worth a dime a dozen,—but quite conveniently never attempt the type of research writing that a W. W. Naughton, or a "TAD" (peace to his ashes), was noted for—it makes us laugh right up our sleeves ever and anon. It is our contention and has been for years, that it is not as easy to fool the reading public as most of us writers think it is—within their own minds they decide your ability and secretly enjoy many a laugh at your egotistic expense. Defeated English Champ ON November 30th, 1890, Jackson won a title, even if it didn't happen to be the one he always thirsted for throughout his lifetime. He knocked out Jem Smith, champion of the British Kingdom, ALVIN J. MOSES at the exclusive Pelican Club, in two rounds. "Thisney," famous chronicler of sporting events in England, claimed that Jackson was born on the Island of Porto Rico, July 3rd, 1861. But nearly five hundred other writers agree with Thisney that the giant colored wonderman was not an Australian, but differ in the birthplace as we do, and give it as St. Croix. However there is very little dispute on the score of his color and ability. At the age of sixteen, Peter's family moved to Australia, where the powerful lad took to the sea and worked along the various waterfronts of the Antipodes. It was while employed as a watchman of several buildings in Sydney, Australia, that Jackson made the acquaintance of Larry Foley,—former heavyweight champion of Australia. The latter, who was running a boxing school, evinced quite a bit of interest in Peter, finally giving him him some work to do in his gymnasium and persuading him to give up the watchman position. Like a duck to the water, did Jackson take to all branches of athletics. Big and strong beyond his age, he took great delight in boxing—but he was also one of the finest oarsmen and swimmers that Australians had seen up to that time. Pleases Larry Foley COMMENCING his active ring career in 1882. Jackson won great admiration from his teacher and instructor, Larry Foley, by the easy manner in which he polished off Jack Hayes. Immediately after the scrap Foley engaged Jackson as his assistant. After his mill with Hayes, the gigantic West Indian defeated Mick Dooley. Hayes for a second time, and Sam Britton. Even at such a stage of his development, Jackson was a mighty puncher. In the case of Britton, he rocked him to sleep with a righthander under the heart in twenty seconds. His reputation was built so quickly that Jock Burke, "The Irish Boy," refused to meet Peter in answer to the country wide demand of his admirers. Jackson's First Defeat Then came the first setback to the young man who was destined to write his name deep into the archives of gloved fighting. In 1884 he tackled a brawny blacksmith by the name of Bill Farnum at Melbourne, Australia. This Farnum was one of the most powerful men that ever laced on a glove, and it was the general belief that Peter underestimated the calibre of this foeman. In a moment of carelessness, Jackson was dealt a smashing blow to the solar plexus and lost in three rounds. A few months later the two were rematched, and the immature Jackson fought six rounds to a draw with the redoubtable blacksmith. In defeating Tom Lees two years later, Jackson won the championship of Australia—a land that had learned to love him as it has few fighters of any color before or since. The contest was for one thousand dollars a side and lasted thirty rounds. The record books show no battles for Jackson throughout all of 1887, but the following year he commenced his up- АНСЕЙ ВЕЛ МАШЕД ИР АВИАЦИЯ СУВЕДЕНИЯ ТОМ МОЛТО ДЕЛЛ 19 1949 АНСЕЙ BELL И was a athlete of Australia CAVOIR WILLOWER, CANADA FILM MODEL WEIGHT 19 1949 This cartoon of ANSELL BELL, colorful West Indian favorite of a few years ago, was drawn by Ted Carroll—clever race cartoonist after Bell's successful tour of Australia and the Orient.

Meets George Godtrey Present day readers must not confuse the George Godfrey of Leiperville, Pennsylvania, who is snapping at the heels of heavyweight contenders—with nary a chance of getting "His Shot"—with the other great colored fighter by the same name who faced the immortal Peter Jackson on August 24th, 1888 before a packed house at the California Athletic Club of San Francisco. Both of these men were accounted better fighters than ANSELL BELL This cartoon of ANSELL BELL vorite of a few years ago, was race cartoonist after Bell's suc the Orient. the pride of Baron Jimmy Dougherty's eye. Godfrey, by the way, was called "Old Chocolate" by his followers, and was born at Prince Edwards Island. Like Kid Norfolk-Wills The great difference in size between Jackson and Godfrey was apparent as the men entered the ring. Like in the case of Harry Wills and Kid Norfolk in their farcial exhibition at Madison Square Garden some years ago, Jackson outweighed the game Godfrey by more than thirty pounds, and had a six-inch margin in height, and many inches in reach. Both men opened the fight with a rush that they maintained throughout the round. The only knockdown of the fight that lasted for nineteen rounds, came in the second canto. Jackson delivered a powerful short uppercut coming out of a clinch, and Godfrey hit the floor with a thud that was plainly audible. In the first ten rounds Jackson gained a decided advantage,—but Godfrey made him work for it. In the final three rounds the punishment that the Bostonian received was terrible. Peter rushed him around the ring forcing him against the ropes raining mighty blows upon him but was unable to beat him to the resined ring canvas. Godfrey's lips were badly swollen and lacerated, and his nose bled as if every vein therein was broken from the impact of the giant West Indian's hard smashes to head and heart, at which style of milling he was incomparable, it was said. Sensing that the end was not far off, Godfrey's seconds mercifully tossed in the sponge acknowledging defeat, though Godfrey was all for continuing on the one sided affray. Few boxers lived a more regular life than this same Godfrey if we may be permitted to digress for a moment here. On August 18th, 1901, Godfrey was told that he had only a few hours more to live. Characteristic of his gameness displayed in countless ring battles, he asked to be removed from his bed and stood on his feet once more before he passed away. His request was granted and with one mighty effort he stood erect,—then fell back on his bed unconscious, dying a few minutes later. This was the indomitable courage Peter Jackson attempted to conquer that memorable August afternoon that oldtimers will never tire of rehashing, and present day readers will eternally marvel over when contrasting PATCH PLAZA MAKED UP AFTER LONG OFFICE 19 MOST DELL 19 1949 H.

Great Fight with Corbett Returning to America after whipping Jem Smith for the title of England in '90, Jackson met James J. Corbett in their often discussed sixty-one round battle at the California A. C. on May 21st, 1891. Corbett, at the time, was not the champion heavyweight, but was a very likely contender. It was in the following year that as a result of this defeat of John L. Sullivan, that Corbett grasped the laurels. A detailed description of the sixty-one rounds would be long and contain much repetition. In the first and last few, however, there was typical and representative action of the whole fight. Corbett opened proceedings by trying to place his famous left body jab. Corbett clinched immediately after and Jackson tried to break away. Corbett made a left swing but failed to get in. Jackson planted a solid straight, right hander under the heart. At the opening of the second round, Corbett jumped to the center of the ring, but it was plain to see that his heart had not fully recovered from the jolt it had just received, and he jumped away again. Peter was after him like a cat after a mouse. It was remarkable to recount that all throughout this battle Jackson carried on despite a badly swollen ankle that he had injured in training a few days prior to the fight. Round Fifty found Corbett badly used up and much the weaker of the two, his hands being almost useless at this stage of the titanic struggle. All hope for victory for either contestant vanished, when in the sixtieth Jackson seemed to flounder. THE INTER-STATE TATTLER From all appearances the fight would have to be called a draw. Such a decision, however, would deprive both men of the $10 000 stakes which were up, and which were to be given only in the event that the men fought to a finish. They faced each other for the sixty-first round. Some of Corbett's friends who predicted that he had no chance to win, shouted, "Make it a draw," with the hope that such a decision would at least save their money. After careful consideration referee Cook announced the result "No Contest"—it being the only possible just decision. Jackson challenged John L. Sullivan to no avail, and his heart was broken when the California Boxing Law was repealed due to the killing of a boxer in a private fight after Sullivan had accepted a twenty thousand dollar purse from the California A. C. During the year that Corbett became Heavyweight Champion of the World, Jackson engaged in one of his greatest battles, stopping Frank Slavin in ten of the hardest sounds in history.

Already the followers of the autumn sport are speculating in the chances of the local gridders. The lid of the 1929 grid will be lifted Sept. 28, when the great wonder machine from Bluefield, W. Va., will come out of the mountains of their native state and journey to the fair Southland to lock horns with the Aggies in the Memorial stadium. The West Virginians will come with a record even more impressive than the famous Tuskegee aggregation. Succeeding themselves last year as the national champions, they will arrive fully expectant of defeating the Aggies. On Armistice Day A. & T. will play the 1928 C. I. A. A. champs in Norfolk. The Hampton iron men have practically the same aggregation. This is by no means encouraging to Coach Byarm and his valiant sons. N. C.

Then the show began—and the entertainers couldn't entertain. Threats were made to stop the show because of intolerable noises, a couple were dragged out stiff drunk, one broke a couple of dishes with a whiskey bottle and other things. My! My! Is this society? Is this what college does? Is this the way the people in those exclusive organizations called fraternities act?

Gant and Perkins, Bud Harris' Junior and his buddy. George Kelting. (white), Nettie Hayes, Putney Dandridge. Donald Haywood and his musicians strutted their stuff and we don't mean maybe.
