BYRD Takes the Rochester Man to Task Concerning Presbyterian Church Affairs BYRD'S CHURCH RECORD Six Years at Rochester and His Church Is Nailed Up, Not a Whole Pane of Glass and Front Used as Billboard. MET IN DIRTY DANCE HALL Dr. Tucker Asserts That Byrd Planned to ignore the Southern Commissioners and Secure Legislation Affecting Their Interest Without Their Knowledge or Consent—Charge Him With Conspiracy. Special to THE NEW YORK ACK. CHATTANOOGA, TENN., Nov. 2—"The Negro Presbyterians of the South do not need Mr. Byrd to champion any cause in which they are involved," is the statement made by the Rev. C. E. Tucker, of this city, in reply to the article from the pen of the Rev. W. A. Lyrd, Rochester, N. Y., published in The Ack of a recent date. Dr Byrd's letter was called forth by a communication previously published from the pen of the Rev Mr. Tucker, which charged Dr Byrd with misrepresenting conditions in the Presbyterian Church as related to its Negro membership. Mr. Tucker has furnished to THE AGE the following statement: In the interest of truth, some few weeks ago, we called the public attention, through The Age, to some misrepresentations of the Presbyterian Church, made by the Rev. W. A. Bryd of Rochester, N. Y. Since then Dr. Bryd has enlarged our vocabulary enormously with vile and abusive epithets without touching directly the points at issue. He has also made further misrepresentations. Regarding Mr. Bryd as a calamity to our friends that we could not desend to his level to cavil with him, it after some consideration we have on bided that circumstances might point us in doing so in this instance. But first of all, in this connection, we wish to state in no uncertain sound— That we hold dear and are loyal to all the valuable aspirations and desires of the Negro race, and shall find our very best efforts in every honorable way possible to make those aspirations and deeds permanent assets. We welcome advancement for the Negro both in Church and in our lives all repoke to see the Honor we deserve to the comrade that if any honor comes to thrust that shall be lasting and worthy of the same honor it must come in the open and not through or by some undertended trick. 2. Welfare it as most unfortunate that those noble and well-tried men of the North, men who have stood for square to every wind that blew, men of experience and who have been told them substantial results—the Roman guards such men as Dr. Roman Lee Reeves and Dr. John Lee Reeves invited into the hand of an adventurer the management before the Assembly of a situation so important as the one that had arisen in our church. We are not mad at Mr Bird. Yet we cannot say there is any special joy to us in his announced intention to remain in the Presbyterian Church. It releases terribly upon a man's honesty to use a howl on the street corners his wife's unfaithfulness to him toward her before she promises any declares his unalterable purpose to live on with her. It leads us to see that things are not so bad all or the man was insincere in the alarm. There are some things we are in mind about this Mr Bird is flown around in the air the years in a desperate search in the place upon which to light and so since he has appointed our leader and served him the responsibility of regul- tions and has a respect to Presbyterianism in coming the ies. Who is Mr Bird's brand of the North? What has merit the leadership of the Presbyterians? Gets Split Nose in Fight dawned upon Mr. Byrd that not possible way to his elev- the Presbyterian Church was the Board of Missions for men. Hence— Mr. Byrd determined to ingrati- tate to the good graces of this With this end in view as stated of the Presbyterian of White he rode fortuitously slaving men right and the left. It was dur- estuous days that Mr. Byrd the role of a Jack Johnson th and escaped from a liste on with a split ride. And when had stranded the Presbyterian and to the very verge of wrecking it led to his dlammy that he still out in the cold. He had be- will not somehow they failed to him. Then— Mr. Byrd planned, by taking ad- age of a situation that had artis- our church, to force himself through the Assembly.

BABIES' Contest will be concluded with the issue of November 25. More than 300 photos have been received, but as has been stated before, a number of the photos were not suitable for reproduction. This will not militate against them in the awarding of prizes, as every photograph received within the time limit will be turned over to the judges. In The Age of August 20 it was announced that the Elizabeth King Institute, 154 East 32nd street, New York City, had offered to present to each of the first 175 babies entered in the contest a Gold Laid Ring, set with a small genuine Diamond. In addition to this, every baby entered would receive a box of Wisteria Talcum Powder, and the mother of every baby entered would be given a box of Creole Compass Powder. Miss King has added to this offer a bottle of Liquid Creole Powder for the mothers. THE AGE has furnished Miss King with a list of the babies entered and their addresses, together with the names and addresses of the mothers, and the Elizabeth King Institute has furnished THE AGE with a copy of the letter which is to accompany the package containing the Diamond Ring and powders for the babies and their mothers. The letter is as follows: Dear Friend. In accordance with the offer that was published in The New York Age of August 26, it gives me great pleasure to send you the little gold-raid ring containing a soft small but genuine diamond.

FARMERS AND BUSINESS MEN TO GET TOGETHER Special to THE NEW YORK AGR. TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., Nov 2— Dr. Booker T. Washington has issued a letter to the officers and members of state, and local Negro Business Leagues, urging that steps be taken at once to arrange "Get-together Meetings" with the farmers of the various communities with a view to bringing about cooperation between the Negro farmers and business men. The letter is as follows: By authority of the executive committee of the National Negro Business League I am writing to urge the officers and members of state and local Negro Business Leagues to take five steps at once to arrange "Get-together Meetings" with the farmers of their communities and to work on an amalgamation for these meetings great interest to be brought through the surrounding area com- munities and to try to unite them and amalgamate. Notice should be sent to the farmers taking them to the coming of local leagues members and acquaint them with the purposes of the vase. It is a better plan to use bugles carriages or automobiles than railroads as these conveyances will permit wide areas to be covered and more people reached. The program of these tours might include calling on individual farmers speaking in their homes and countryside and visiting small country stores. By cooperating with the farmers in this manner greater confidence may be established between professor and merchant, mutual business, and self-methods adopted, and the volume of business of Negro merchant is increased. Another way to bring about resiliency through Negro business lies in work for the local Negro business leagues in cities not too far distant to have joint meetings. For instance, the local league at Tuskegee, Ala. has recently held pola meetings with the local leagues at Mon县县 Monoka and Union Springs Ala. As the result of those meetings more helpful leagues and trade relationships have been established between the business men and local communities. I very much hope that the local leagues will take hold of these matters for by so doing they will help the farmers solve their problems, and at the same time increase the business of co-operated merchants.

When the tumult and the shouting" had waited away into silence, when the smoke of battle had mingled with sky-clouds, when the rattle of argument was suspended for the cannonny of the ballot, and then when came the time for summing up results, there were found to be defeat, but not disgrace, for the Woman Suffrage Party, a recrudescence for Tammany democracy in Greater New York, and an overwhelming victory for Republic principles throughout the states of New York New Jersey, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and Ohio. In New York the suffrage amendment received a larger vote than it had ever received elsewhere, but the anti vote gave a majority against it of approximately 162,332, with returns from many election districts missing. In Massachusetts the anti secured a majority of 121,335, while in Pennsylvania the measure was defeated by a majority that it is claimed will reach 150,000. Notwithstanding this seemingly stupendous defeat, advocates of woman suffrage are not discouraged, but had started another campaign of education even while the returns were still coming in The Result in New York City In New York City local inter- district attorney and sheriff holding p- with the sutrage amendment and H publican candidates, Charles A Pork- or district attorney, and Frank K.

Count of the votes Wednesday morning showed the Royall had received 878 votes, as against 1,580 for John McKee Democrat, and 760 for H. Pouker, Republican, giving the Lammany man a plurality of 762.

Recently we called attention the fact that the Atlanta Independ ent, mous fight with Dr. Proctos and others over the question. o} dance haus in Atlanta, was indulg ing in dangerous journalism wher _ it sought t make the fight an issu between cviored people of one com. plexion and colored people of an. other. Tye .\cr said at the time: With the quest un at issue be- tween The Independent and Dr. Pwotor, Tur Ace has nothing to dv. It is a mater tu be seated by the peope of Atlanta. But we do know st 1s dangerous journalism for a Negrs paper to ‘use words that will sur up strife and biter feeling within -the race and array colored people of one complexion against col- ored people of another com- plexiun Such words can do more harm than the most viru- Jent attack which might be made against the race from the outside. < In defending its action, The Jn- dependent said ii answer 10 THE Ace: The matter discussed by The Independent was purely local, Brother Moose rightly admits that Tue Ace has nothing ty do with purely tocal matters in At- Janta, but feels catled upon to warn’ The Independent against the danger of mentoning the color line. We beg to say that The Independ- ent is mistaken if it suposes that it was discussing “purely local mat- ters.” OF course, the question be- tween The Independent and Dr. Proctok regarding dance hall. is local. In fact. it may be less than local, it may be merely personat- It is likely that not ten colored persons out of every hundred in Atlanta either know or care anything about the question or those who are dis- cussing it. But itis not a local question when The Independent at- tempts to raise an issue between col- cored people of one complexion and those of another Such an action strikes at the deepest interests of every colored man. woman and child. not only in the city of At- Janta, but the state of Georgia. the whole South and the entire nation Our Atlanta contemporary goes on to say: ¢ | _, The Independent has observed 1 daring is years of existence that it is all right to draw the color line when the question 15 raised by the mulatvace Bur , just as soon as the blias men- * tion colorphobia, then st ty all wrong.

Jounsox, Conmamyrinc Eprron, * LPR POL ALIA ALL IOP LL ALAIN LAL ALIA IPS Sea UREA SL LEOSUN IN SERIES Fee Several times in these columns we have tried to impress upon our readers the importance of the newest uf sciences, the science of efficiency. We have at different times taken up the subjects of physical and mental efficiency to show that both kinds of efficiency are absolutely essential to our progress as a race. . | . . We have.tried to show that efficiency is not merely knowing how to do a thing, or even doing it well, Efficiency means the con- centration of every power upon the job in hand, and doing the job to the uttermost. ‘So. openirig a store and exhibiting goods for sale is not efficiency jin business. Efficiency in business demands a knowledge of the principles that govern business and competition. and the ability to carry these principles into effect. Neither is graduating from a school of medicine. opening an office and collecting fees from pa- tients, efficiency in the medical profession. Such efficiency entails upon a physician the tasks of continuous study, close observation and the still more laborious; task of collating his observations. The whole world is. to-day having its greatest lesson in efficiency, farnished by the war. Whatever may be said of Germany's national ethics, it cannot be denied that she is demonstrating the value of efficiency. Pefore the war she had demonstrated what efficiency meant in things educational, social and commercial ; now she is show- img what efficiency amounts to in things military. Up to the pres- Jent tsme the combined furces of England. France, Russia and Italy Ihave been powerless to stay her hand. Contrast England with Germany in she present conflict and you must arrive at the conclusion that the difference in results achieved is due to Jack of efficiency on Jingland’s part. The British Empire, embracing. as it does, Canada, \ustralia. South Africa and India, was, up to the outbreak of the present war, untversslly con- ceded to be the most powerful on earth, but she to-day has any doubts as to what would have been the re-ult of a struggle between the British Empire and the German Empire? ty has been brough:, out that the principal business of officers in the German army has been the stndy of war and preparation for war “It has’ also been admitted that, jev*aps.:the most important business of officers in the British arms ‘bas been sports, playing tennis and polo and riding after the hureds There is hardly any doubt that in a contest in tennis or polo or fox-hunting British officers could win the majority of prizes over Germani officers, but skill of that sort doesn’t count in the present war. This does not mean that fighting is the finest business in life, but it does mean that if you have to fight, it is best to be an efficient fighter. If you are not going to put efficiency into your fighting, then you had bettér arrange to steer clear. . ee eee Glen Head. L 1.

However, |we cannot allow our appreciation of the compliment to deter us from pointing out to the Grand Chancellor that he has taken the same lexception which we ourselves took to the general facts stated in our jarticlé.

They have studied the skin of flowers and the leaves of the sea and also in man. But this is a dark problem of mortality. To see the cause of life is very obscure: Finally this life, when we seek to know, is lost in the mystery of godliness, which is difficult to do know that there is a life and death. Duties Performed. When we look about us and observe the laws of nature, we are confident that there is a great work to be performed and that work is Duty. Our Creator has blessed us with the gift of existence, and we have the power, perception, and intelligence. He has prepared us with all nature, giving man and nature a duty to perform through life which prepares them for death. When we behold the brightness and light of the morn, then the dark stillness of the night, we do not mistake the day and night as rock as into the sleep, which is the night. We move about our daily duties unconscious of the fact that the day is performing its duty and the night-soon will hover over its duty. We rise again after the night has passed and hundreds of us are awake and earth revolves it nears the end of its duty and sets in the west. It would take nations and tribes of every kindred and tongue to tell what the sun has done for them. The language of the birds and flowers would be inadequate to express the goodness of the sun. At springtime the trees take on new foliage; they bud, bloom, decay and tall. Very soon the whole of nature changes. The vegetation again, they bud, increase and multiply. This teaches us the duty of nature that is performed between the space of life and death. Man's Dual Duty And so it is with life in general, as it struggles and marches on to its height and 100. It has its duty to perform. Man that is the instrument of the greatest good and the greatest evil, has his duty to perform. The joy of life. Because some are born amid luxuries and wealth is no sign that they have not a duty to perform. Nor does it apply to those amid poverty and distress that there is no duty to be performed. Christ was born in a manger, among the lowly and the poor. He performed his duty of the mankind. He passed from life into death, but to rise and live again. We are no greater than our Maker. We also have a duty before us. "Lord, teach us to number our days that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. This is the whole of man duty, which is the duty of mankind. He has a dual-duty to perform. Simply, the duty of the body and the duty of the soul. Unless the members of the body are am good working order, the soul can not perform its duty perfectly. We must protect the body with good, moral life, and we must also perform practical obligations pertaining to ethics and religion. These duties can be filled by the visible activities of man. But the duties of the soul depend upon the depth of reason. This depth must be endless. It is a hidden service and can be performed by the mind, the cart and soul are duties which men and greater men. It is the broad expansion of the heart towards all that is good that makes us what we are. The greater the expansion the greater the duty, the greater the man, must receive the gifts as numbered and our duties great for the time allotted to us. Value of Duty: The first duty of man after he has reached the reasoning age, is to know God and to know that God is God. Secondly, he must realize the "Oneness of Humanity." God made man after the images of Himself. He is our Father and we are His children, regardless of cast, creed, or color. We are as one. Then it is our duty to pay our gratitude. Thirdly, man should attain all the wisdom and knowledge he can for the lack of knowledge is sin and a duty unperformed. Lastly man should apply and impart that which he attained. We should give to the less fortunate the source and value of power which he has received, perhaps with care. These thoughts will bud, divide, increase and multiply. They will become universal, not limited to the space or circumstance. Do things for the sake of duty itself and not for reward. Speak words for their value and weight and not for the sound. Perform the deed for the good that is to humanity and not for words of praise. Then we have done our duty. Recognize the feeling of all mankind, banish hatred, scorn, envy, revenge and lies of man when you have performed a good man. The good will live forever. If you do not know that life is a duty never ended then it is yours to seek that what you do not know. If we have performed our duties of love and soul, we pay the last debt, our life to die. Some look at this we have terror and terror, but when we have done this, we have entered the power of service for life. We have paid the holder of duty to that of reservation, we have almsgod like us, from its sublessest use, we have been enveloped with the last richest gift of creation and have received a joy forever.

BYRD different from page one) not stoop to methods: an didnt oppenents to detain lutions an injure me." If any stooping was done or questionable methods used at the Assembly, such stooping was not such methods were used by Mr. Bryd. cannot are the facts which Mr. Bryd cannot successfully prove to the contrary: A. Mr. Byrd deliberately-planned to ignore the Southern Commissioners in the Assembly for immediate before the Assembly for immediate resolution in which they were concerned without their knowledge or consent. B. Mr. Byrd entered into a conspiracy against the Board of Missiones for Freedmen, using as his tool: (1) A man who had been dropped from the Board of Missiones Board. (2) This man, shading under misfortune, wrote a booklet of sorts alleged irregularities in the Freedby White River, and there were this man in the Board and the workers on the field. (1) The soldier booklet was sent to all the white commissioners in order to prejudice them against the Board and present his resolutions. The Southern Commissioners learned of this booklet only by having some of the white commissioners ask them about it. The commissioners asked Ah, that Booklet contained the precious ammunition with which Mr. Byrd hoped to make a a-place for himself. (1) Mr. Byrd selected another mime, and instructed him to go around among the men in the Southern Prebysteries and see who were the dissatisfied ones and use his influence to have each elected him to burn up the Freedmen's Board. (4) Mr. Bird having planned what he conceived to be a certain go, he then made a bid for the place he had been, and the confidence of the men whom he claimed to represent. Such are the questionable methods and the double dealings of the man who, when his head was seen, found fault with the white man's religion and the policy of the Presbyterian Church, and branded the Southernizers puppets, beggars and Benedict Arnoldus. But we are of the opinion that if Mr. Bird had utilized his time and used his opportunities or our own resources to zeal he has schemed for places in our church, at this late hour of the day he would have a place upon white to lay his head and would not be out in the Byrd Another Caesar. "I did not want the secretaryship, neither do 'I want it now.' says Mr. Byrd. But in this statement Mr. Byrd contradicts himself. He says 'deaf defends the resolution, but could defeating the resolutions impure Mr. Byrd unless he were expecting something in case the resolutions carried? Caesar said he did want the resolution, but Mr. Byrd did not want the secretaryship, but he tried to old with the appointing power. Mr. Byrd has told us what Dr. Holly did with his communications. What did Mr. Byrd do with communications of Dr. Jackson of Chicago? "I stand ready to aid any man this Board may appoint," says Mr. Byrd. Can we depend on this statement? Mr. Byrd had a splendid opportunity once to aid a colored man appointed by the Board. Mr. Byrd later Dr Sanders was appointed to the presidency of Biddle University, Mr. Byrd was a student in that institution of learning. What did he do? After making it plainly understood that no one should be allowed to him, he packed his few belongings in a vailise and liked off to Princeton. Byrd as a Pastor a Colossal Failure. The word failure without the accompanying descriptive has not in itself the significance to describe the career of Mr. Blyrd the pastor, the friend, and the whistle for yourself to look at Mr. Blyrd's church as it stands to-day at Rochester, N.Y. He hold it, after six years of disinterment under the faithful service of Mr. Blyrd, of the words of Jesus in it, the front used for posting bills, and the words "FOR SALE" written in large letters. Did you ever see a picture that more outlived the collection of his letters? "his" is his "Ars Poetica" than this*. And when the Assembly, the most august body of our denomination, met last city in this city, what Mr. Blyrd called "dirty dance hall with rats running around all over the floor, contesting with the saints the possession of the building. Mr. Blyrd writes of the man that requires manhood behind it. Perhaps Mr. Blyrd is giving us an exhibition of what he means at Rochester. It appears to us, however, like Presley's portrait of the man who aspires to leadership. If the past and present have any message for the future may we not most appropriately write over the significance of any church Mr. Blyrd serves. "Mr. Blyrd is out in the cold." Mr. Blyrd Byrd a Candidate for the Ananias Club. Mr Bird's candid they appear in the four counts following: The Prosecutor's "church has closed its doors in the face of the colored man desiring to go to Africa. This one thing is a barrier in people, to their accepting our church." This statement has no foundation in truth. And Mr. Layd in giving it to the people in mind aimed to place our church in a nice light or worthful piece of importance. We rejoice to tell the thank you to the movements in the Press on Church to prevent them from going to Africa. Our Foreign Board is working to ensure that it requires all its missons and the color of the skin plays part in it. The truth of the matter is that no cooled man applauding to our Board to go to Africa has as yet met the requirements. We further meet the requirements of thexluxious to send some colored missionaries to Africa. All persons-deedling to write to Dr. Arthur J. H. Fifth Avenue, New York City, instead of Mr. Byrd. Mr. Byrd does not speak any more for the Presbyterian Church. 2. Mr. Byrd makes a muddle of the facts of our church at Chattanooga. Of course we do not handle much of the work up in Rochester. Yet we should be given the proper credit for what little we do handle. But the magnitude of Mr. Byrd's soul is so small that he is unable to make it appear that our church and school raised only $550 last year. Mr. Byrd again displays his ignorance. He ought to know that the minutes only go up in the church. Had Mr. Byrd in his desperate case searched to reports of the boards as diligently as he did the minutes for information of our work here he would have $21,405. That is not so bad down here. Mr. Byrd raised only $1,300 in Rochester. 'See' minutes for 1915 page 725. 'And then again, our record of nine benevolent objects of our church; Mr. Byrd's church gave to only four, Mr. Byrd writes of our church as small and insignificant, we have thirty-seven minutes for 1916, page 726. See minutes for 1916, page 726. 3. Mr. Byrd expresses deep, yearning to see more of the ten millions of people into the Free system. Orchid. We seriously question the integrity of Mr. Byrd when he once embarked over one million years. See minutes for 1815, page 726. 4. Mr. Byrd says the writer is attending the twenty years of our ministry, a commissioner we have attended three Assemblies and visited instructors and instructors solicited any person or persons for our work. An when Mr. Byrd says we are known At Assemblies as anti-allegiances and unqualified falsehood. Word Hyphenate. It is remarkable and so passing strance that Mr. Bryd, who writes so and grows so solemn, talks so fervently and grows so solemn to his great love for the Board of Missionors for Freedom—and that he is held under suspicion by his brethren who are so proud of his whole year pass by and he send only, only, ONLY TWO POOR DOLLARS to the object that lies so close to his heart. "Parturient montes, nascere ridiculous mas? Let us sing the first stanza of "America." He and his eye on the dollar. He planned also to manipulate the financial end of the Assembly in his favor. Having promised the committees of the commissaries of commissaries for $2.50 per day, Mr. Byrd tried to make them pay $3. And the writer had to pay him at the rate of $4 per day, sleeping in bed with and using his own soap and towels. Mr. Byrd writes and talks much in explanation of his underhand work at the fluids, the fluid a certain fish uses to hide itself when pursued. The Negro Presbyterians of the South know Mr. Byrd and his great love for any cause in which they are involved. We have thirty-nine colored Presbyterian churches in the North, and many in the South, with churches on the Southern dale are self-supporting. The Southern Committee Assembly that, in so far as Mr. Byrd's resolutions affected the Southern work no action be taken that will lessen the effect of the apprehension set of fair-minded apprehension will readily see that anything less than this would have been a breach of the trust the Commissioners have given to Mr. Byrd intruded' into the hands of their Commissioners. It was not a matter of prejudice or jealousy but of every reason which Mr. Byrd seems to possess so little. Again we have not a church within the bounds of the Assembly that was worth $100 to the Board last year. Mr. Byrd has been a great supporter of papers sent in only $2. See minutes for 1915, page 726. Of course the Southern Commissioners would have displayed splendid judgment to be a man on the Board and a person of honor on our Board who are worth thousands of dollars to the work in the South each year, to put on a "Two Dollar Byrd"—just to say we have a collection and more honor for one or two men's not a special help for the urgent needs of the masses of our people who are struggling from the bottom, but sympathy and help for the masses now are needed. Now since Mr. Byrd has decided to stay with us, we would express the hope that, in the future he will depend on us, and that we will work, thinkize less, play the part, man and less' of a spoiled child and we may not have occasion to spank him again.

BASKETBALL THE COUNTRY OVER (BY WILL ANTHONY MADDEN.) All basketballdom is anxiously waiting the sound of the referee's whistle that will start going the most popular of winter's sport. The crowd is so excited that even well proven by the great crowds that follow the game at through its long months of action. Its WILL ANTAONY MADDEN popularity is also due to the social side that is always enjoyed in conjunction with the game. Then again the fans seem to take the game seriously, this being especially true of the New York. For no place where basketball is played, is it run on such a wide scale as it is here in our town. Thousands of people patronize the game and the enthusiasm and interest shown is truly wonderful. It is a clean, fast game and one that is well liked. The reason is that the game is easy to understand, stood that is, the general idea of the game is quickly grasped. Of course, there are many scientific points about it that take years to perfect, but the point I wish to make clear is that on general construction the game is not as intricate as I see all football and basketball players do in a team. One of the things I like is a popular notice of last season was the many new people who came to see the games, some of these folks actually seeing a basketball game for the very first time and I can truthfully say that all of those players simply gone wild over the game are now dead in the wool' fans. . . . I wish to mention officially to the public and particularly to all the clubs, and organizations that although I am manager of the "Incorporators" this fact will not interfere in one lota with my fairness and squareness as basketball editor of The Ace. All teams will receive due recognition if they without fear or favor The "Incorporators" the same as any other aggregation will be recognized from the standpoint of merit and from that standpoint only I repeat that every club throughout the country can absolutely depend on this. It seems that every new season introduces new teams to the New York public. Last season 1914-15 the big team of note was the Gladiators of Boston, Mass. recognized champions of the National Basketball Association, a great reputation but went down to defeat before the "Incorporators" This did not detract from the ability of the Gladiators as they truly had a good record, but the style of basketball played by the Incorporators was as good as it was played by the Gladiators. It was nothing else but victory for the New York boys. This season another new team will make its appearance to the fans of New York and that is the Carlisle Indians of Carlisle. Pa. This team will play basketball at the Christopher Club of St. Philips Parish on New Year's Day. If the Indians can play basketball as well as they play football, or if they can play as well as the Indians on Hampton's basketball team, they will undoubtedly make it into the NBA. There will be other Irish teams introduced to old New York this season, about which I will comment at some later date. A few days ago I was with Charlie Bradford, better known as "Brad" the veteran center of the St Christopher Club, and had quite a chat with him. He told me he had a pretty successful baseball season, but had the misfortune of injuring his ankle, much so that he was able to appear on the basketball courts this season. He is still suffering from it and is under the doctor's treatment. This information concerned me somewhat, because I remember that in the days I handled "Brad" he generally had trouble with his ankles and I always had to see that he got special attention from the coach, but injury will not interfere with his playing this season as he is a valuable man to have on a team. . . . While getting as an official at the Alpha P. C. Club's athletic meet this summer I had an occasion to conversa with the Cliff Norman members and learned that the Cliff Norman members back on the courts this season. Evidently Norman has fully recovered from his long illness and has retained his strength and vitality, because he played basketball. Norman was always a hard player and made a pretty good guard, but the 'reputation of being a rough player like "Pop" Lewis of St. Christopher and Bob Lattimore of Smart Set. Many people consider over-zealousness as roughness and in some cases as a benefit of the doubt. However, be this as it may, Norman always gave a good account of himself and was one of that famous five that lowered the colors of Monticello in Pittsburgh several years ago. The game has changed over the years, and the player he will have to shop some great "comeback" stuff to show up with Scott who is about Alpha's best guard! --- With ilmore as the pivot man or "Big Five" where will the old favorite, Sing Goode, line-up? Not at "deep guard" again, I hope. Goode's position is center and norhere else. Gilmore's place is also center as he cannot play forward, so we will ask, "what is it to be, boys?" It should be the survival of the hittest. Alpha had an excellent team last season, in fact, one of the best the club ever had. Harry Levign of College Settlement, was the coach, but what "Big Five" showed on the courts, they knew themselves and had known for some time, although it might be that they were not in improvement in Capes' guarding. I had a talk with Levin a few weeks ago and he told me he was again engaged to coach the Alpha squad. --- We would like to hear from Smart Set of brooklyn, as that club used to be a big factor in basketball and was one of the pioneers of the game. The New Jersey informer carries some up-to-date basketball news and is to New Jersey what the New York papers are to New York. The other night I met my erstwhile worker and friend, Jeff Wetzel. After preliminaries, our conversation natural flowed and exchanged many views and opinions. Jeff is very optimistic about the teams for this season and expects great results. He mentioned one player on the St. Christopher squad in him he puts a world of dependence Lamar has it that this player is well known and when we think of it, I don't suppose we can blame them, as he is worth well his weight in gold. Jackson of the "Incorporated" made his first appearance on the court recently and his form in shooting was remarkable. He showed everything and reminded us of the famous little Pork who made his debut several seasons ago. His accuracy at shooting so soon in the season is all the more impressive because he made his season in rounding into form. Pork has also taken on considerable weight and it is doubtful if he will ever be a best weight again. . . Two excellent improvements have been added to the "Incorporators" trunk quarters, a swimming pool and a handball court. The place now is complete in every particular, as it has every known convenience and accommodation for the perfect training of the boys. The showers are a joy for . . . Lincoln University has already begun its preparations or the basketball season and is going hard after the college championship. If successful the team will turn its eyes toward other "worlds to conquer." In order to do that though it will have to run the gamut of the New York teams which are the host in the world. After a most successful season just year, the "Delaney Rifles" of Pittsburgh, Pa. are laying plans to repeat this success. It was the Delaney organization that promoted and staged the largest basketball affair ever held in Pittsburgh. It was on February 22 Washington's Birthday, and the attraction was the incorporation of New York's 400-student the game and the street cars carried advertisements while the white newspapers gave a good deal of space to the game before and after. In a talk with Wyatt Tyler of the Montclair Y M C A, he informed me that the teams representing the Y M C A this season would endeavor to make Montclair, N J, a strong factor in basketball. I remember last year that the organization had some good knowledge of the game, which of course can only be acquired from expert coaching. . . . Washington, D.C. is another great basketball center but lacks facilities for the staging of large games. If Howard University, or any of the Washington clubs could secure a suitable place to have these games, it would unquestionably pay them to the university to play them in New York. Whenever a game is given in True Reformers Hall the place is general packed, but there are hundreds and hundreds of people who would like to witness the game but cannot on account of the lack of accommodation True Reformers Hall is strife for a home attraction but in many cases it would enough money to cover the expenses of a team from New York or places of the distance. --- With the largest number of candidates that ever tried out for the team the Carlton Y M C A basketball squad is hard at work "Pickling" time is near and every man is working his hardest in order to get a place on the team. Most all of last year's men are candidates, and the Carlton's hopes run high for having another strong team this season. They are recognized as the champions of Brooklyn Quentin Vaughan is again managing the team and communications will reach him at the Carlton Y M C A. The Carlton's will open hot season at Labor Day on Friday and on November 26 Lahor Lyceum is one of Brooklyn's best courts. Cassie Norwood president of the Present Club of Atlantic City and center of their basketball team was the guest of the Incorporators at the basketball center on Friday. It is very probable that the "Incorporators" will travel to Atlantic City this season to take issue with the Present team. --- All through basketball circles I have been hearing rumors that white boys are going to play on some of the coloured team to a season. This may only be a dream. This true I can only wonder what the idea is and about further developments. Charlie Scotton formerly of Smart Set of Brooklyn, is now a member of See the Billy King Stock Co. at the Lafayette Theatre next week. Back to Vaudville. Commencing Monday, November 8, Harlem theatregoers will be given an opportunity to see Billy King and his company of twelve, who will top the big vaudeville bill at the Lafayette Theatre. Billy King is rated as one of the most prolific producers in the business, and he comes to New York after a successful engagement of over two months at the Grand Theatre, where he broke all records for attendance. He originally opened at the Grand Theatre for one week. For the first half of the week the company will appear in "My Kentucky Home." "At the Beach" will be the title of the show for the second half. Admirers of Billy King are predicting that the King Stock Company will set the natives to talking as it did in Chicago. the St. Christopher Club of St. Phillips Parish. How times have changed. He is trying to "make" one of the teams and the question is, will he succeed? Scottron is one of our old timers at game and won a good deal. However this season will tell. He was one of the original New York All Stars that were famous several years ago and is brother-in-law to F J. Arcoe, the sterling and powerful left guard of the "Incorporators." Another town in Jersey will be added to the basketball ranks this season and that is Bayonne. New Jersey is and has been, for some time, one of the basketball centers. The game today is being played in Orange, East Orange, Newark, Elizabetht, Montclair, Plainfield, Atlantic City, and will be played in Jersey.

WALLACE, Composer Lincoln Giants Lose. Howard Defeats Un on University. Washington, D.C. — It powerful but erratic, Union University's football team met detest at the hands of Howard University on Saturday October 30 by the score of 18 to 3. The game was marked by brilliant work of both eleven, and it was not until the last few minutes of play that Howard was assured victory. Howard scored her first touchdown in the opening quarter. By a series of delayed passes and runs and line plumps, which completely bewdered her call up, Union University was 15-12 in 15-12 yard line. Then a beautiful forward pass by Bruce and Grumage carried the ball over. In the next quarter the Union defense proved more formidable. Hulses Union's start quarterback, standing on his own 35-yard line made one of the prettiest goals ever seen in Howard's field. The third period was a desperately fought battle in which Union held her own. The kicking of Hulcs, the lineuping of Pindlerhughes and the running back of punts by Stratton were features of this quarter. In the final period Howard swept Union off her feet with roward passes, trick plays, and end runs, and in the last six minutes played scorecards downhill. The game was remarkable, the even playing of both eleven, and the score does not indicate the closeness of the contest. Hulcs and Harold Thompson were the bright stars of Union, for Howard Pindlerhughes, Stratton, Bruce and Grinnage played brilliant ball. Rust Beats M. J.
