1. Miller of Public School 89, and 1. Mother Zion Athletic Club, set a new record for the 60-yard dash in the 500-mound class of the Public School Athletic League meet at the 22nd Regiment Armory on Saturday afternoon, December 8, when he covered the distance in 7 1-5 seconds. The old record was 7 2-5 seconds.
Public School 5, which was represent almost wholly by colored boys, dismayed a well-balanced team, scoring in the sprint, relay and field events. P. S. won the team trophy by scoring a total of 34 points. The next highest number of points was scored by P. S. of Brooklyn.
The meet was a gala affair for the 900 school boys who took part and for 7,000 other school children, with their relatives and friends, who looked it staffed with an impressive public program and lasted three hours, sitting Mayor Hulbert headed the patio and acted as official referee.
P. S. relay teams were as follows: pound class—Banfield, Goldberg, Ganz; campbell; 85-pound class—McCray, ammon, Straus and Gain. Individual stars from this school were: Smith, in won the running high jump event in 85-pound class; Sheppard, who won running high jump in the 100-pound; Thompson, who came second in standing broad jump, and Harper, who came second in the 8-pound shot.

money from prospective tenants in the 12
District's Court on Thursday, December
6, the sitting Magistrate held the
judge for the Court of General Sec-
charge was based on a complaint
Mrs. Mara Horka $255 West
street, that he had charged $250
from her as payment on property which he could not deliver and that she was unable to obtain return of her money. She made the payment September 10, and on October 6 she secured a warrant for Davis, on which he was arrested on October 13 and held in $2,000 bail. Finally on November 16, through his attorney, Davis refunded the $300 to Miss Hooks, and at the same time paid sums of $270 and $40, respectively, to other persons who had paid those sums on properties Davis could not deliver. The presiding judge, however, refused to dismiss the criminal charge.
In being held to General Sessions, the Judge agreed to reduce the bail for Davis to $1,000.
7TH AVENUE TOGGERY SHOP OWNER ROBBED OF CASH AND GOODS
Two armed colored men entered the Wallace Tongger Shop at 2156 Seventh avenue about ten o'clock on Thanksgiving eve, and in the presence of five customers held up the proprietor for what cash there was in the store and a number of valuable shirts.
Several customers attempted to run. They were warned not to make any outcry or blow a police whistle or they would be shot. The robbers got away with their loot and have not been apprehended.

Chicago, Dec. 10.—Mrs. Eleanor Washington, a New Yorker, and George Russell and Honier Lane, Niger porters, are outstanding figures of the Twentieth Century Limited wreck of Orsyth, N. Y., Sunday morning, according to unanimous witness of the survivors.
Of all people in the two trailing ships three appeared to have sustained their presence of mind, and their swift and efficient work doubled saved lives.
One by one the passengers were starfied to a sense of frightened wake.
PORTER KILLED IN LIMITED WRECK WAS POPULAR WRECKER
Reuben Pannell Was Mason, Unmarried, Lived at 211 West 140th St.—Arlen Barper Liddell.
Reuben Pannell, the Pannell porter who was killed in the Twentieth Century Limited wreck on December 9, had been in the Pullman carriage 48 years old. For the past 12 months he was a sniffler for the train wreck. He was a resident and best-liked porter in the service and his depth came as a big shock to his many friends here. He was unmarried and passed at 230 W.

fulness. One by one they dropped from the rain-dripping coaches to the muddy ground and added their whispered comments to the sum of melancholy.
"I'll give a prayer for the Pullman porters when I get out of this," said one.
The porters were in the thick of the wreckage. They had taken no wink of sleep. Their only illumination was candles and they fitted silently and efficiently to and from the coaches, bringing out the dead and wounded, blankets and water.
Emma Washington, the maid from section 2, strove like a versatile Florence Nightingale, a whole Red Cross personified in that night of fog and its fitting ghostly tallow dips.
Wen Attention of All:
According to passengers on the wrecked section, these train employees made heroic efforts and so assisted in the rescue work as to attract the attention and commendation of all. They were foremost of a corps of brother employees, all of whom earned praise.
Mrs. Washington is, officially, a manicurist. Actually she is the friends of hundreds of persons who have traveled on the Twentieth Century and have come to know her and to expect her greeting. She has been in the railroads employ for twenty-four years, twenty of them aboard the Century.
She was in her berth when the crash came. It was her first wreck. She threw her wrapper about her, slipped on her shoes, and made for the door. "A white lady," she relates, "toxed an ermine cape about my shoulders as I went by her berth, but I threw it off. I was afraid I would soil it."
N. C. MUTUAL LIFE
HAS $850,000 LOANS ON REALTY MORTGAGE
Company Is Rendering Service to Race, But Demand Is Greater Than Can Be Met.
(Special Announcement)
Durham, N. C.-The balance sheet of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company shows approximately $850,000 in real estate mortgage loans, proof of the fact that the company, through its investment Depart-
Mr. Porter was the chief client and best lined porters in the service and his death came as a big shock to his many friends here. He was unmarried and roomed at 271 West 140th street. He was a Maason and a member of the Pullman Porter's Athletic and Social Club. His body was taken to his former home in Virginia for burial on Wednesday.
Orion Y. Harper of 38 West 136th street, New York City, formerly of Augusta, Ga., brother-in-law to Charles C. Davis, president of the Lucy Laney League, was in charge of one of the Pullman sleepers on this section. He and Parnell were chaps, and latter had just left Harper's car, returning to his own, the observation car, when the fatal crash came. Harper was badly shaken up and bruised, though not seriously injured. He is recuperating at his home in New York City and will not be able to return to work for some days.
Outside, Mrs. Washington found every one, apparently, dased. No one was yet moving toward rescuing those imprisoned in the dabish of the wrecked observation sleeper.
Back into the car she went, and broke out the emergency equipment—axes, lanterns, torches and crowbars. The porters responded to her command. Each seized an axe.
Two minutes later axes and crowbars were tearing into the wreckage and the actual work of rescue was begun.
Wolde Aze With Man.
Mrs. Washington worked side by side with the others, wielding an axe, tearing away steel plates with her bane hands, lifting maimed bodies from their prisons and assisting in the bandaging of wounds.
After she had assisted in the rough work of chopping out the imprisoned victims she cared for them with the tenderness of a mother. Efforts to interview her today were without success. She declaims any heroism and says she did only what any one else would have done.
One Negro porter, himself badly injured, paid no heed to his wounds, but devoted all his attention to the suffering and badly scared white passengers. After it was all over he discovered that he needed surgical attention.
ment, is rendering a helpful service to the people.
Real estate mortgages are safe and excellent investments for life insurance companies' funds, when carefully placed and restricted to desirable classes of property. In many instances, double security is required. But even so, according to officials of the North Carolina Mutual, the demand for loans on A-1 security far exceeds the ability to supply them. Many requests are not satisfied because there are not sufficient funds available.
Business institutions are realizing that the profits for which they labor are secondary to the good will of the people and this in turn depends upon the impression made upon the public by the service rendered. The North Carolina Mutual is primarily a service institution. Being a race enterprise, the demand for service upon its resources is probably greater than is made upon similar institutions operated by other races. This is explained by the fact that (Continued on Second Page)

LA. SENATORS OBJECT BUT COOLIDGE NAMES COHEN FOR N. O. JOB
New Orleans Colored Leader's Name Again Sent to U. S. Senate for Confirmation.
(Special to The New York Age)
Washington, D. C.—While Senators Ransdell and Broussard (Democrats, La.) were at the White House protesting on Monday, December 10, President Coolidge had on its way to the Senate the nomination of Walter L. Cohen to continue as Comptroller of Customs at New Orleans.
The appointment was the most striking of the 5,000 sent by Mr. Coolidge for approval, among which was that of Frank B. Kellogg of Minnesota to be Ambassador of Great Britain, Mr. Cohen originally was appointed by President Harding. A wrangle ensued, with the result that the Senate failed to confirm and the appointment lapsed with the end of the session.
Mr. Harding promptly named Cohen by recess appointment, though his insistence was considered disastrous to any ambition of Republicans to carry any Southern State.
Negro leaders awaited Mr. Coolidge's disposition of the Cohen case with mute concern, maintaining that if he failed to stand by the omitted in the face of protests from Southerners the last straw would be added and the Negroes would bolt the Republican Party to converse to the Farmer-Laborists.
Mr. Coolidge obviously did not desire to offend the Negroes further. Senator Broussard is expected to object in the Senate and a lengthy battle is in sight before Cohen's confirmation.
CHAS. W. ANDERSON
NAMED BY PRESIDENT
AS COLLECTOR, N. Y.
(President to the New York Age)
Washington, D. C.-Among the 2,000 nominations sent to the Senate on Monday, December 10, by President Calvin Coolidge, was that of Charles W. Anderson of New York City to be Collector of Internal Revenue for the Third New York District.
Mr. Anderson, was appointed to this position when the new district was created at close of last session of Congress, as a recourse nominee. It is not thought there will be any opposition to his conformation.
U.S. Att'y Hayward Leads Revenue Agents In Raid On Harlem Bootlegging Joints
As Result of Activity, Four Injunctions Were Obtained From U. S. Court, But a Stay Is Secured by Men Affected---- $100,000 Fund to Fight Injunctions Said To Have Been Raised.
INDICATIONS WERE THAT RAID HAD BEEN TIPPED OFF, NOT WITHSTANDING EXTREME PRECAUTIONS TAKEN BY COL. HAYWARD
All Places Had Removed Hootch to Safe Place Except "Chief" Pomerantz, Who Believed His Secret Storehouse Was Inyulnerable—But Officers Knew Just Where to Look.
Col. William Hayward, United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, personally led a force of six prohibition enforcement agents into Harlem on Thursday night, December 6, and made raids on the hootch joints that resulted in the securing of injunctions against the further operation of the two bootlegging places run by Al & Sons, at 189th and the other at 528, and "Chief Pomerantz's malt and beverage por at 507, all on Lenox avenue.
Only in "Chief's" place was any illicit liquors found, but evidence against the other places secure pdpreviously served as a basis for the injunction proceedings.
Notwithstanding that Colonel Hayward surrounded his movement with the utmost secrecy, bringing the agents to New York from Washington, meeting them at the station and proceeding immediately to Harlem, it is alleged that word of the impending raid reached the bootleggers in advance of the officers' arrival. The accredited bootlegging king, Loui, it is reported, could not be reached on the phone, so the word was passed on to Hyman, who in turn non-
CHICAGO WELCOMES DR. & MRS. JACKSON RECENTLY WED IN N.Y.
(Telegram to The New York Age)
Chicago—Dr. and Mrs. Henry Gordon Jackson, were at home to friends at their apartment. $450 Calumet avenue, on Monday, December 10.
A reception marked the beginning of a series of social affairs to be given by leaders of Chicago's colored colony to the newlyweds. Some of the events will rival in splendor the reception which followed the wedding at the $250,000 country home of the bride's adopted mother, Mrs. A Lelia Walker Wilson, at Irvington-on-Hudson, New York, when 2,000 invited guests attended.
Woman Stabs Another In Fuse About Husband and Is Held in $2,500 Bail
In an altercation with Catherine Foster of 2673 Seventh avenue, Bertha Wynglass of 156 West 144th street, was severely cut about the wrist on November 25. The fight occurred in front of the Douglas Theatre, 142nd street and Lenox avenue, about 11 p. m.
The injured woman was taken to the Harlem Hospital for treatment by Mrs. Bertha Carter, a lieutenant in the Women's Police Reserves of the 30th Precinct. At the hospital Mrs. Carter found the woman who did the cutting and placed her under arrest. In the fight the assault had also cut herself with the knife.
The fight is said to have occurred over Mrs. Ester's husband. Mrs. Foster was held in $2,500 bail. Mrs. Wynglass has been in a serious condition at the hospital due to loss of blood.
A civil suit for libel has been brought by Pearl La Vern Allen against the Amsterdam News Publishing Company, for an article published by the New York Anmsterdam News August 8, 1923. This suit was brought in the City Court for $8,000 damages, and the summons and complaint in this action were served personally on Mrs. Edward A. Warren, as president of the Amsterdam News Publishing Company, November 17, 1923.

bootleggers in advance of the officers' arrival. The accredited bootlegging king, Louis, it is reported, could not be reached on the phone, so the guard was passed on to Hyman, who in turn nonfitted his fellow dealers.
Found Secret Store Room
All of them, except "Chief," took quick action, removing their stock to safe places until the raiding party had left the neighborhood. Pomerantz, however, was stubborn and declared his purpose not to remove any of his stock, believing that his secret store house would prove a secure hiding place. He reckoned without his host, however, as in some mysteries way United-States Attorney Hayward and the revenue agents had been given definite information as to the location of the cache, and to the consternation of the "Chief," went directly to the spot and cleaned it out.
Col. Hayward immediately proceeded to cask for injunctions against these places and was given the four mentioned above. The bootleggers are full of fight, however, and are reported to have raised a large fund, alleged to be $100,000, to fight the injunction proceedings, which, if successful ultimately, would mean the closing of the places and the placing of padlocks on the doors, preventing their use for any purpose for at least one year. The injunctions are prevented from going into immediate effect by a stay which has been granted the bootleggers.
Nellans Break With Leul7
It is reported on what is thought to be good authority that the Italian group, led by Dominique and Tony Scala, have broken with Loui and his retainers on the raising of the fund intended to use in fighting the injunctions. It is probable, since their places were not included in the raid, that they objected to being shaken down to help defend the other fellows. The alliance, it seems, was not a very strong one, anyhow, being more of a neutral agreement than an active partisanship. The other bootleggers were dependent on Loui for their hooch, but the Italian, it is alleged, get their supply from a wholesale establishment conducted by their own friends. So breaking the alliance with Loui will mean little to the Italian. They will continue to get full supplies of hooch.
In the meantime, with regard to the injunctions, Loui and his cohorts express themselves as not being worried over the final outcome. They declare boldly their purpose to continue operating in Harlem. They purpose to secure stays in execution of the padlock orders as long as possible. In the meantime they have bought and are buying convenient parcels of Harlem property, and it is alleged to be their purpose, if injunctions, finally close the present bootlegging hooch parkers, to simply open up in another of the properties they have acquired.
Whatever comes, the bootlegger
you see they will not desert the "Merkle

PAPERBACK
Supervision of the club house and its attendant activities is under John A. Rogers, superintendent, who has held this position for twenty years. Mr. Rogers, a white man, is a native of Wilmington, Del., and has been connected with the Union League for from thirty to thirty-five years. The estates in which Mr. Rogers is held by the man who work under his supervision is known by the manner in which they pursue him. He is possessed of a large bank of sympathy and human kindness, but at the same time he demands and maintains the fullest measure of efficiency in the performance of required duties.
He has built up a splendid working force, the machinery moving with smoothness and elasticity, and it is indicative of the ability possessed by the superintendent, that the colored man is in charge of the various departments are men who owe their advancement to his periparacity in recognizing merits and giving those who prove themselves an opportunity for the exercise of authority.
Mr. Rogers is impartial, fair and just, and has proved himself a real friend to the Negro. Under his administration, the atmosphere in the club house, as regards the working force, is that of one big family, all in perfect accord and harmony, the result being the attainment of almost perfect service, making for the comfort and satisfaction of the large and important membership. Mr. Rogers is a prominent fraternity man, being a member of Lodge No. I, B. P. O. E. He lives at White Plains, where he has a beautiful home and a charming family.
In administering the affairs of the Union League, Mr. Rogers is given splendid cooperation by his assistant superintendent, James J. Gibson, a man of fine personality, who has been in the club service for twenty-five years. Mr. Gibson is also a member of No. I Lodge of Etks.
Scaled Men Is Steward.
Next to the superintendency, perhaps the most vital and important service in administration of the club house affairs is rendered by Robert Brooks, the steward. Mr. Brooks has been with the club for thirteen years, first as cannon of prairie care then as assistant steward. A native of Washington, 1877, he has been in New York since 1883. He has a splendid home at 132 Washington street, Flushing, Long Island, where he lives with his wife and 12-year-old daughter. He is one of the high ranking Masons, having attained the 32nd degree, and is a member of King David Consistory. No. 4, and of Medina Temple, No. 19, of New York City.
It is interesting in connection with Mr. Brooks' advancement to his present position, that he owes it to Mr. Rogers' ability to judge of a man's capacity for administrative and executive functioning. And another worthwhile fact is that once he has selected a man for certain functions, Mr. Rogers leaves to the details of duties entirely to that individual, relieving himself of all worry as to the carrying on of the work. In this manner, the superintendent has developed a staff that operates the internal economy of the club with clocklike regularity and with utter smoothness. This ability to select lieutenants is a hallmark of the shrewd brain which functions behind the smiling, pleasant and grazable countenance so familiar to all of Mr. Rogers' friends.
In the case of Steward Brooks, the entire club service is under his charge: The matter of service in these divisions is entirely in his hands, and requires the exercise of constant and intensive activity. He has his headquarters on the third floor, in the private service rooms, from whence he directs the service rendered, the members in all parts of the large and splendid club house.
The Main Dining Room.
The main dining room, with a corps of twenty-five waiters, is in charge of Joseph Queeman, headwaiter, who has been with the club some thirty years. He is not only one of the oldest in point of years of service, but is one of the most efficient. He was successively captain and headwaiter of private service before taking charge of the main dining room. He is ably assisted by John De Vennx, formerly of Savannah, Ga., son of the late Col. John H. DeVeaux, himself one of the most distinguished Negroes of the country, who was founder and editor of the Savannah Tribune, and Collector of the Port at both Savannah and Brunswick. Ga. for a number of years. Young DeVeaux is first captain under Headwaiter Queenan, and John Lopez is the other captain of the waiters.
The present captain in charge of the private service floor, the third, is H. L. Dazey, a competent and energetic worker, who has been in the club's service for some time. He is assisted by Samuel Harprows, and on special occasions, when club members are, entertaining large parties, Captain Dazey employs outside help in such numbers as are necessary. Captain Dazey is a member of St. John Lodge, No. 29, A.F. & A.M. John McCrea, a thirty-year man, is in-charge of the billiard room, and the captains in Cafe No. 1 are Joseph Webb and Edward Edwards. Eight elevator and hall boys, all colored, are employed, and Arthur Smith is in charge of the reading room.
45 Years Service
One of the employees who has the most unique record, possibly, is Mrs. Lizzie Hawkins, who has worked for forty-five years as one of the porter maids. Mrs. Hawkins came to work each morning at J o'clock, and was made to have been so regular in her appearance that members or attachs of the club remaining in the building until that hour were reminded of the time by her prompt appearance. Her remarkable record of punctuality was not begun until about six months ago, when she was struck by illness. In consideration of her long and faithful service, the club officials decided to refuse her from further service and relocate her as a pensioner. This did respectfully but firmly destined, adding to her potential to return to work. This Mrs. Hawkins firmly agreed to her extraordinary abilities.

ry, the timekeeper, who has been with the club for forty years.
The office staff is made up of J. M. Eckenrode, H. G. Watson, Joseph Feighrey and Frank Taylor, with H. Bixby as bookkeeper. The doorkeeper is Geo. Brooks, a ten-year man. Possibly the most unique figure of the entire colored personnel is William Selden Miles, captain of the cafe, card room service, etc. Mr. Miles has been adj attach of the Union League Club for forty years, and he is known to many of its membership because of his skill with the chafing dish. He is known to them as the "Webh Rarebit King," and the epicureans of the club declare that he knows more about concocting this delectable dish than the man who first discovered it. He is assisted by Captain Gus Weems, himself a thirty-year employee.

It is noted in this connection that the Union League Club makes no promise to provide a pension for its employees, or to supply a burial fund. But every old employee who has become superannuated is granted a pension, several now being on the rolls. And every employee who dies, regardless of the length of service, is buried at expense of the organization. These elements of human sympathy and consideration explains the fact that so many of the employees have long years of service behind them. Alfred Weems, a waiter, has served thirty years. Charles Bohaman for twenty years, and Wm. Brown, John Emmons, Frank Addison, H. A. Smith and Oscar Smith, all waiters, have been with the club for periods carrying from ten to fifteen years.
The colored employees, however, have no monopoly of lengthy tenure of service. The chef, a Frenchman, Dell Era, has held his position for twenty-five years, maintaining the most cordial and pleasant relations with the house force. The housekeeper, an Englishwoman, is Mrs. Lily Hopkins, capable and efficient, and her force of parlor and chambermaids and laundrywoman is made up of both colored and white women, and they work in amity and accord. Frank Dumston, the valet, has twenty-five years of service, and Maude Halloran, the coffee maker, has performed this duty to the delicatessen of the members for twenty-two years.

WE pass on to you OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES' opinion that memory, imagination, old sentiments and associations are more readily stirred by a fragrance than almost any other means.
With this excellent advice in mind, one chooses COLGATE'S, particularly for Christmas. Down the list—from the oldest member of the family to the youngest; from Johanny's teacher to one's best friend—the gift of COLGATE'S brings twofold pleasure. To the recipient because of its fragrant loveliness and fine quality. To the giver because the joy of giving has not been dampened by the cost.
And the pleasure of a COLGATE gift will stir the memory and live in sentiment long after the gift itself has yielded its last precious resinant.

of the G.O.P. Its members have always evinced active and friendly interest in the Negro and one of the most compulsive evidences of its interest in the race was the presenting of a stand of colors to the Old Fifteenth New York Regiment, under command of Colonel William Hayward, now United States District Attorney, and a member of the club since 1912. The Union League Club also presented a stand of colors to the "Buffaloes," the 307th Regiment, under command of Colonel Moss, and when the Negro soldiers returned from France in 1919, the colors were returned to the club.

buggy in which they were eloping, convicted this week and sentenced to 20
years in the Virginia penitentiary.

WHAT ARE LOCAL PROBLEMS?
President Coolidge in his first message read before the Congress last week commanded universal interest and, to a large extent, public approval in his recommendations affecting public policies at home and abroad. The exception to this general approval was the recommendation of the proposal to adhere to the Permanent Court of International Justice. This renewal of President Harding's suggestion at once aroused the opposition of those who fear the League of Nations and all its works, among which this court scheme is numbered.
The President's stand on other subjects of vital interest included the advocacy of Secretary Mellon's tax cut proposals in full; more vigorous prohibition enforcement; liberal compensation to disabled veterans of the war, as well as better hospital and training care; consolidation of railroads; federal operation of the war built merchant marine, pending opportunity to sell it; continuation of restrictive immigration; action under private ownership of coal mines to insure production and public protection against high prices; constitutional amendments to limit child labor and to prevent issuance of tax exempt securities.
President Coolidge opposed the soldier bonus; cancellation of debts owed by foreign countries; tariff revisions; recognition of Russia until that government restores right of private property and liquidates debts; consolidation of Navy and War departments as proposed.
In advocating anti-lynching legislation by the Congress, the President said:

President Coolidge opposed the soldier's bonus; cancellation of debts owed by foreign countries; tariff revisions; recognition of Russia until that government restores right of private property and liquidates debts; consolidation of Navy and War departments as proposed.
In advocating anti-lynching legislation by the Congress, the President said:
Numerous among our population are some 12.5% of our armed people. Under our Constitution their rights are not as sacred as those of any other citizen. It is both a police and a private duty to protect these rights. Congress ought to care for the safety of our people, punishment and the hideous crime of lynching, of which the Negroes are by no means the sole sufferers, but for which they furnish a majority of the victims.
Already a considerable sum is appropriated to give the Negroes vocational training in agriculture. Now it has a million dollars is recommended for the training at Howard University to help contribute to the education of 400 educated doctors and to train more than 100 large numbers into industrial centers it has produced that a commission be created, composed of members of both races, to formulate a better policy for mutual understanding and confidence. Such an effort is to be commended. Every one would rejoice in the accomplishment of the results which it seeks. But it is well to recognize that these difficulties are worked out by the mutual (feminine and human kindness of each community). Such a method gives much more promise of a real remedy than outside interference.
This advocacy of Federal legislation to prevent and punish lynching is direct enough and broad enough to justify the passage of the Dyer anti-lynching bill, which was adopted by the lower house at the last session, but failed to secure a majority in the republican Senate. Following this outspoken advocacy of Federal intervention where it is most needed, the President's recession to position less firm in the affirmation that it is well to recognize that these difficulties are to a large extent local problems." is hard
This advocacy of Federal legislation to prevent and punish lynching is direct enough and broad enough to justify the passage of the Dyer anti-lynching bill, which was adopted by the lower house at the last session, but failed to secure a majority in the Republican Senate. Following this outspoken advocacy of Federal intervention where it is mostly needed, the President's recession to a position less firm in the affirmation that "it is well to recognize that these difficulties are to a large extent local problems," is hard to understand.
The President by recommending Federal legislation against lynching has removed that offence from the class of local problems. The other difficulties encountered by Negroes in the South are largely due to disfranchisement, lack of educational facilities, "jim crow" car laws, denial of justice in the courts. Disfranchisement should not be relegated to the status of a local problem, when its results figure in the election of Congressmen and even of Presidents.
Educational facilities are denied the Negro not only by the unfair division of the greater part of the State taxes which they help to pay, but by the diversion of the Federal grants, in some States like Georgia, no part of this fund being allotted for the education of Negro children. This may look like a local problem, but it will require Federal supervision to enforce a fair distribution of such funds.
The fact that the government can recognize the regulation of the rairoads as a tional problem, when it comes to consolidation and rates, shows that the "jim crow" law, and no law by corporate control
as a local problem. The policy of equal accommodation for an equal fare, regardless of the color or race of the passenger, should be a matter of national honor and good faith. No passenger should be obliged to pay first class fare for cattle car service.
The proposition that a commission be created, composed of members of both races, to formulate a better policy for mutual understanding and confidence, has already been carried out in some measure by the formation of voluntary "Inter-Racial Commissions" in various parts of the South. Composed as they are of outstanding and thinking-members of both groups, their influence has been helpful in the promotion of public sentiment of the right sort. But the working of such instruments as these commissions needs the stimulus of the "outside interference," which Mr. Coolidge defricates, if the South is to mend its ways.
The enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the Federal Constitution by appropriate legislation is just as much needed as the enforcement of the Eighteenth amendment. The passage of anti-lynching legislation should be coupled with the abolition of the "jim crow" car laws. Problems that affect the equality of American citizenship cannot be dismissed as local. They are national eyesores, infecting the whole nation.
UNION LEAGUE WORKERS
Unusual interest attaches to the new article printed in another part of this issue relating to the personnel of the house workers of the Union League Club of New York City and the harmonious relations to characterize their employment. A noteworthy feature of this relationship is the fact that the major portion of the person is composed of men and women of the race and their term of service in many cases includes twenty-five and thirty years.
This feature of permanency of service alone speaks volumes as to the satisfactories relations that exist between employer and employees. The fact that the former is corporation, enjoying widespread standing as the highest type of social and political organization in this country, adds to rather than detracts from the significance of the relationship.
The Union League Club has stood for more than one generation as the staunch advocate and exemplar of stalwart Republicanism. Its friendly interest in the Negro race has not diminished nor faltered, despite the approach between the North and the South, following the War of the Rebellion. The same spirit that speeded the black regiments that went to fight for the Union a half century ago, was exhibited in the presentation of colors to the "Old Fifteenth" and the "Buffaloes" in the World War.
The Union League Club, with its glorious traditions of two wars and countless political campaigns, is one of the few institutions that seems to withstand the blighting effects of time and moral decay. It is particularly fitting at this time to recall the purposes of its founders, as stated in the stormy day of 1865, when they pledged "to promote, encourage and sustain, by all proper means absolute and unqualified loyalty to the Government of the United States; to discountance and rebuke, by moral and social influence, all disloyalty to said Government; and every attempt against the integrity of the Nation." This spirit needs to be perpetuated.

THE OBIECTIONS TO HARRIS.
The Age has for several years opposed the candidacy of George W. Harris for public office on the grounds of character and fitness. Recent events have proved the accuracy of its judgment, which was confirmed by the voters in the primary and at the last election in November. In last week's issue of The Age Robert Conklin, Republican leader of the 21st assembly district, reviewed Mr. Harris' career since his election as alderman four years ago, and enumerated the objections which his party associates have to him, as follows:

GOV. WALTON'S REAL OFFENCE.
Commenting on the impeachment of Governor Walton of Oklahoma, the Oklahoma State Department has the impeachable
records of previous governors of the State and in the following fashion:
With all the doo do that is being made about the sins of Walshell might be well to take a retrospective view on what has happened while other governors of this state have served in the highest position in the gift of this commonwealth. Surely our readers have not forgotten how the first governor of this state stole the capitol from Guthrie broke faith with the governor's neal of the state of Oklahoma City in the still watches of the night. All know the nightmare of despair after the failure of the Columbia Escal and Trust Company, and the subsequent exposures of official corruption. Negroes especially, cannot forget Haskell, for was it not Negroes who, with their vote, gave Haskell his first political chance when they sent him to the constitutional convention from Muskogee? Haskell in turn promised the Jim Crow clause being placed in the fundamental human state. Haskell kept the separate coach and writing law from becoming a part of the constitution of the state. The Negroes voted for him again when he ran for governor, and Haskell regarded them by asking in his first message to the legislature that an emergency be declared and a separate coach and waiting law be enacted. Incidentally, we might say Haskell went into office a poor man, and probably fortunate for him that the spotlight of investigation that fell upon Walton did not shine down upon his first governor.
And we can't forget Governor Bob Williams, the governor who was O. Kied for the Federal bench after he had called an extraordinary session of the Oklahoma legislature, and in defiance of the Supreme Court of the United States which had nullified the Grandfather law, insisted on the passage of the women's registration law that today the entire citizenship is ashamed of? We cannot forget Governor Bob, for it was during this same administration that somehow, some way, a blanket lease was written for Marland, now Ponce City, on valuable oil land. Yet Williams met Marland long before Walton reached the light of public notice. Marland ought have paid well for what he received practically free gratis from the state and he ought have paid a deal more than the price of Walton's mansion, if he knew anything about values and wanted to take care of those with whom he was dealing.
Editor Dunjee concludes that Governor Walton's chief offence was that "whether he meant it or not, he said he wanted a fair election law enacted in this State, and he said he wanted to fix it so that the humblest Negro would feel safe upon the public highways of Oklahoma. Many Black folk in this State will always feel that Iron Jack committed his first impeachable offence when he permitted Negroes to sit as delegates in that memorable Shawnee Convention."

CIVIC RIGHTEOUSNESS
The fact that the colored ministers of Greater New York have united in a call for civic righteousness would be most encouraging, if the call had been made a little stronger and the evils involving moral, turpitude kept distinct from lesser offences. For instance, the subject of the unrestricted sale of poisonous hootch in Harlem was referred to the following mild tone of detraction:
The fact that the colored ministers of Greater New York have united in a call for civic righteousness would be most encouraging, if the call had been made a little stronger and the evils involving moral, turpitude kept distinct from lesser offences. For instance, the subject of the unrestricted sale of poisonous hootch in Harlem was referred to the following mild tone of detraction:
"Whereas, it is alleged and generally known that bootlegging is a menace and destroyer of the health and morals of old and young alike, who traffic in it, and whereas the manufacturing and selling of health so it is alleged in certain drug stores, stables, and law offices where he has a stance, to crowd our streets, especially the corners, with disorderly men and women whose language so fool and base as to, make it unfit for our children to pass, and unsafe for our wives and daughters.
When it is realized that the bootlegging joints and hootch vendors are distributing poisonous compounds that are bringing moral and physical destruction to those who become addicted to their use, this description has the effect of a slap on the wrist. If the sale or principal result of hootch selling was merely to crowd the streets with disorderly men and women who used foul language this result while deplorable would not be without remedy. But these men and women who drink hootch also have souls and bodies. The preachers should be interested in saving both from utter destruction. We are afraid that the ministers in their movement for civic righteousness have made the error of dividing their forces into an attack on too many points at one time. Their program included, besides bootlegging, the housing conditions. Sabbath desecration and commercializing recreation, cabarets, and Sunday funerals. All these phases of activity may stand in need of regulation and reform, but no one of them is doing the harm that comes from "hootch" vending in Harlem.
Let the ministers concentrate in an effort to break up bootlegging and hootch selling by using their influence with their congregations and putting the case up to the proper authorities. When this is accomplished the other reforms will come easy.

COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS
According to the Jacksonville Florida Seminel, colored exhibitors of the Florida State Fair this year were awarded $1,041.75 in prizes, the largest amount ever distributed among this group of exhibitors. The Seminel added:
The State Fair authorities are bending every effort to build up the colored department and have offered more space and more prizes if needed in that department. The value of the exhibits to the colored people in Florida is hardly appreciated, and it is hoped that many more will take advantage of the opportunity to have practical lessons in economy demonstrated to them. Every effort is bent upon a bigger and better Florida. Every city is nestled in time it is cured that man-made colored people will have ease.
According to the Jacksonville Florida Seminol, colored exhibitors of the Florida State Fair this year were awarded $1,041.75 in prizes, the largest amount ever distributed among this group of exhibitors. The Seminol added:
The State Fair authorities are bending every effort to build up the colored department and have offered more space and more prizes if needed in that department. The appeal of apprehension as the colored of Florida is hardly appreciated, and it is hoped that many more will take advantage of the opportunity to have practical lessons in economy demonstrated to them. Every effort is bent upon a bigger and better State Fair in this city next year at which time it is hoped that many more colored people will have exhibits.
As prizes were given for farm and school exhibits, as well as in the farm and home makers club contests, the value of this annual fair should be apparent. As an incentive to progress in home making as well as farming, its influence should be widely felt.
Morris Brown, the Washington correspondent of the Atlanta Independent, a few weeks ago was accorded an interview with the Secretary to the President, C. Bostom Stuart. We quote:
As the correspondent has been asked when
and representation on the district boards. Whatever may have been the attitude of Mr. Stemp, he is certainly new, cordial and courteous and is disposed to be considerate of the grievances of the Negro.
This is almost too padded a conversion from Mr. Stemp's former attitude of "Lilywintelism" in Virginia. However, with the historic case of Saul of Tarsus, on record, we must not be too incredulous.
The announcement that an involuntary petition in bankruptcy has been filed in the federal district court against a firm of Wall street cotton brokers, recalls the prediction made some time ago, that if Negro migration continued from the South, some of these New York City cotton brokers would have to put on jumpers and overalls.
Herbert B. Alexander, writing in the Los Angeles California Eagle, asserted that the Northern Negro and the Southern white are mental equals, "and then some." He based this conclusion on the United States army tests of 1918 which showed "Negroes of New York State receiving on an average better grades than the whites of any state South of the Mason and Dixon Line, with the exception of Texas, Oklahoma and Florida." He concluded:
However we may explain it, the fact stands forth plainly. The unsatisfied representatives of the one million Negroes of the North were able to demonstrate to the world through the army intelligence tests of 1918 that they were capable of competing on an intellectual equality with the twelve or fifteen million of Southern men. We can only wonder why these results were the remaining millions of American Negroes to be given the same environmental conditions as their brethren in the North, or were the one million in the North to be afforded even greater opportunities for intellectual unfoldment than those which they now enjoy to a limited degree.
The army tests of 1918 exploded a good many baseless theories besides the empty shell, of inherent superiority on the part of Southern whites.
Discussing the need of better preparation for the ministry, the editor of the Christian Recorder said:
A "prepared" preacher is a preacher who can preach the Word of God so that people will be converted and uplifted and persuaded to a better life. A "prepared" preacher is one who can persuade and persuade to a better life it will grow harmoniously and be a blessing to the community. If the seminary does not lay the foundation for making such preachers and pastors, it is falsely "preparing" the men. A man with such preparation may not get the charge as soon as he comes out of the house. A man with such preparation he has better. A "prepared" man will ensure hardness as a good soldier because he is sure of his call. Because we believe theological seminaries will help men, because we know they have prepared good men, who are ready to serve and are willing to serve, due to what do construct. The reason we believe in them.
We are glad that the editor emphasized the object of preaching as persuading to a better life. Religious teaching should be applied strictly to the purpose of better living and service of our fellows. Too many preachers devote their pulpit exhortations to preparing for death. It is the way a man lives that determines the kind of death he shall die.
Deprecating the "big funeral idea," the Baltimore Afro-American said editorially:
Mrs. Caroline Dews, 75 of Pompey, Ohio, invested her life savings in a casket, steel vault, burial dress and grave. She is now content for she will know that her last penny will be spent on herself even after her eyes are closed in death.
This may seem to some a bad investment but in another way the same line of reasoning is followed out by many seemingly rational persons who count our dollars and time, burial organizations, whose sole benefit will be to insure a big funeral.
Every man and woman should be properly insured not as much against death but against the day of old age and, to protect those who must follow.
The burial organization had its inception in the need for a proper and decent provision for the interment of its deceased members without involving the surviving relatives in debt. Like many other good ideas it has been carried to extremes in the lavish expenditure indulged in for funeral purposes. More modest funeral display and a larger provision for helpless dependents should be the new order of things.
一
The Indianapolis Preemium fulminator against "Foolish Christmas Spending" in the following fashion:
Christmas is rapidly approaching again. Between now and then several millions of dollars will be spent foolishly by those who can least afford to do so. The poorest of people, many of whom live in alley and the most miner able kind of rented houses, will be purchasing disposable toys such as twenty-five dollar play figures on cards and twenty-five dollar toy trains, when a more modest expenditure for things of this kind would serve the same purpose. In many instances people who are strangling for bare existence will, in answer to the urge of the most foolish kind of settlement, purchase expensive presents for people who are far better off than they and who would be far easier to receive a simple good and every giving of true friendship and good will.
While this may sound somewhat exaggerated there is no doubt that much of the money spent on holiday gifts is useful extravagance on the part of the spouses. It would be far better in many cases to devote the money to special gifts and plush the holiday gifts.

In The New York Age, November 24, on the editorial page, was published an article, "Religious Education and the Negro Church" by Moralio Soymoran Hill. This article was written for The Advocate, the weekly bulletin published by the Abbasinian Baptist Church, which is printed in the job department of The Age, and was published in this paper entirely by inadvertence, or The Advance would have been given credit.
Up-To-The-Minute World Happenings
Nine people were killed and thirty-five injured when the third section of the westbound Twentyth Century Limited, the New York Central's crack train from New York to Chicago, disregarded signals and ran into the second section. Among those killed was William B. ("Wild Bill") Donovan, famous baseball pitcher and former manager of the New York Yankees, and R. Parnell, the colored Pullman porter, who lived at 211 West 140th street, New York.

Ermanuel Keasler, said to be the boot- king of New York, and nine other prominent bootleggers were convicted of violating the Volstead Law on several counts. They were sentenced to two years in prison and fined $10,000 by Judge Winslow in the U. S. District Court. Keasler is said to have made millions from a fleet of rum-running ships, operating between New York and the West Indies. The prosecution was conducted by Major John Holly Clark.
The Age Rea
Coolidge and the Negro
Editor of THE NEW YORK ACE:
In his message to Congress, President Coulidge devotes a paragraph beginning with the statement, "In some 19,000,000 colored people, he goes on to say that 'one account of the migration of large numbers into industrial mission be created composed of members from both races to formulate a better policy for mutual understanding and cooperation.' But it is well to recognize that these difficulties to a large extent are local problems which must be worked out by: the government and human kindness of each community."
I don't there an echo of the old debate facing for two generations before our civilization. Question in President Goodlee's words: And doesn't he, inadvertently perhaps, be unaware of the question of human slavery was a right? Southerners who resented the idea that the question of human slavery was a right's position toward the Negro, which had to be settled by the sacrifice of slaves, battleships of the South, appears to be revived by the expression, "local problem." His apparent attitude of mind in this matter, in direct opposition to Abraham Lincoln, could not endure half and and after all, the memoir of his day could be solved only on the broad basic proposition that this nation could not endure half and and after all, all Americans who believe that the status of the Negro in our American civilization not a national and not a national standpoint. When General Hancock, the Democratic leader of the tariff as a local issue, he lost all chance that he had ever had election, the tariff was so lacking in statemenlike perception that he could confound in his mind the question of slavery. From one that had merely alarmed
It would prove absolutely disastrous for the president to fail to realize President a candidate who fails to realize that he is connected with our Negro preachers and not a sectional question. A national and not a sectional question.

At a recent meeting of the Republican National Committee it was decided that 2,500 votes would be the minimum requirement for Congressional district representation. Unless a district叫 that number of votes for Harding and Coolidge in the last election, it would be denied district representation in the next Republican National Convention. This provision gives the North 50 more delegates and cuts down the southern representation.

the North. There is no place anywhere enough thoughtful people for Mr. Howard to have arrived themselves against the North and when Mr. Howard trunches to retaliate himself abused as a captain, he himself abused as a boss and based on the North. The men living in the South are dealing more main issues than the North rather than show themselves all of the instincts of real manhood. They breathe loudly, if that breath calls for equal rights and citizenship, should not be placed where the atmosphere is healthful, shallow rot that is given out in the south north south, where many colorless clothes are worn.

frustrated and almost unfortunate are the fact that the church of God, if it but shall it be so audaciously practised in the Church of God? I wish from the church to fraternal organizations the church which, men does his best in corrupt. I do believe that sooner or later a lister will cause disaster long to be remembered for men cannot be ridden over indiscriminately in things over. Is it not that to averre the equal and opposite position, I look on.
Editor of The New York Acr
There has been an reason advanced in the opinion of political expediency that the authority of the office of Secretary of State should be appeased, and since Dr. Donald J. McGee has been appointed to the office and with honour throughout the church, must be acknowledged by the most highpower of royal condemnation and by the most powerful and most dignified president and treasurer and has denounced his entire claims. Moreover, may not be denied the office of Secretary of State at the General Conference and treasury and entitle his commission of the office of Secretary of State to the highest office in the church. We wish to be fair and just with our counsellors, and I believe that the inherently important group with of the great gatherers of Lousville, become ground and we shall regard to the faithful servant of the church in which he is being directed.

bey of ghout ton years of age, spperemtly. the proprictor’s
sen, stoed motionieen, witir his. hands in both packets, and
without @woed watched the eplored beys take the oranges.
‘Thé‘colored Goys then departed and et a-little distance they
-flauntingly taunted; the white bey with gestures of their
clinebed fats. The white boy stood motionless and leoked
oa without e word. It was at this point ‘that the writer called
the colored boys, and after speaking to ‘them for about five
minutes, one of the lade decided to take the oranges back,
which they @id. The white boy receiyed the oranges wits:
owt a word. The colored boys returned and I gave them
twenty-4ive cents with which they then bought oranges from
the said store.
. Thus closed a little street incident—en incident which,
though simple, should be food for thought by our intelligent
adults. If.only some of us could be won over to the prin-
clples which caused the colored lads to return the oranges;
if only we could convey mors strongly to the minds of our”
young beys and girls a better understanding and respect for
others, how much might we avoid most of the unpleasant
raclal animosities that sometimes fan themselves into a pois-
onous state of hate. If ten persons can be wortover-to the
principles which made the colored leds return those oranges,
then the above will have séved the highest purpose towards
a better understanding of oyr relationship with those of a
different race. : ‘

THE STAGE AND ATHLETICS
In The Realm of Music
By Lucien H. White
Roland Hayes Repeats His Recital Program In Boston At Symphony Hall, Dec. 2d
Wins Even Larger Measure of Acclaim From Audience That Overflowed Concert Auditorium—Every Seat Taken and Chairs Filled Stage, Still Many Were Turned Away.
Following his recital at Town Hall, New York City, on Saturday evening, December 1, in which he scored an impressive triumph, Roland Hayes, tenor, returned to Boston and sang the same program on Sunday night, December 2, at Symphony Hall. Mr. Hayes repeated the wonderful success attained on his first appearance with the Boston Symphony Orchestra on November 16, but in a larger measure, since the last recital program embraced a much more extensive range than did the orchestral recital program.
long range than on the stage. Symphony Hall was jammed to capacity. Every seat, including all the chairs that could be crowded upon the stage, was filled, and hundreds stood throughout the evening. Many were not able to even get into the hall.
Philip Hale, Boston's dean of music critics, wrote in the Boston Herald on December that Hayes not only had a beautiful voice but also "singing brains." Continuing, he said: "Last night he showed beyond doubt and peradventure that he is not a specialist, but a singer well versed in all periods and schools of vocal composition. No one of them is alien to him."
Henry T. Parker, writing in the Boston Evening Transcript, said of Hayes: "Mr. Hayes voice his unmistakable individuality. It escapes altogether the wildness, the reediness that beset the tenor-kind; while never once does a tremulous note make it in song. It is notably even and notably supple. Through the whole range no change in quality is discernable. Yet it yields on the instant the volume, color, peace, plasticity, of singers and composers will.
the volume, color, texture, and the work of both skill and imagination. His car knows, his tone follows, the true pitch. He strikes each note firm, full and clear, unless, for the sake of sentiment, he touches it with light, artful quiver. He rounds his phrases within the contours of the melody. He is discerning and elastic with pace, rhythm, pause, transition, gradient, climax. Yet more is he expert singer in the apportioning, so to say, of his tones. He commands an ample, but never a forced power.
Weynona Pendleton in Recital at 1st Emmanuel
The First Emmanuel Church Choir, on Friday evening, December 7, presented Miss Weyonna Pendleton, a young lyric soprano, a pupil of Wilson Lamb, Orange, N. J., in a program that contained interesting features. Miss Pendleton, just past her 18th year, was written of in this column some four years ago as a coming singer. While her art is not yet perfected, she has made steady progress, and her program on this location evidenced that progress.
The recital was at First Emmanuel Church, 105 West 10th Street, the Rev Richard, Manuel Boiden, chief pastor, and although there were a good many vacant seats when the program started, the late comers filled these and extra chairs had to be placed in the aisle. The choir itself sang several numbers, with an opening invocation by the pastor and pronouncement of doxology and benediction by the Rev William M. Hogan. Miss Pendleton was not at her best in the first part of her program. Through nervousness or lack of case in strange surroundings, she failed to produce her full and free-flowing tones, her voice seeming to be stiff and constrained. As the program proceeded, however, this gradually wore off, and in her third group, three Burleigh Spirituals, her first essay, by the way, attaining Negro songs in concert, at singing grang out with colorful intensity and atmosphere. She was accorded a most favorable reception by the audi-
Sue Lang a McDowell group, "Long ago, sweetheart nine," the swan bent low, "A maid sings nine," and "As the graming." Then came "Chanter rize," "dormet" (Gounod), and "Si mes vers avant des ailles" (Hahn), followed by the Spirituals, "By and By," "I mood en the ribber of Jeferson," and "Hard trials" (Burleigh). The final group was "Q sleep, why dost thou leave me?" (Handel); "The water lily," Bujlard; "Thou art nill all" (Bradley).
W. Arthur Calhoun in Recital at Cleveland
W Arthur Calhoun, organist and choir director of the Union Baptist Church, conducting a studio for voice and piano at his home, 2232 Seventh avenue, was the artist in a piano recital in Cleveland, Ohio, last month under auspices of the Playhouse. Settlement Benefit Club at the Cory M. E. Church. Mr. Calhoun played three groups, as follows: 1st: Sonata, op. 13 (Beethoven); 2nd: Sonata, op. 27, No. 1, and Scherzo II, op. 31 (Chopin). 2nd: Eventide (Raff); 3rd: a tanteque (Padereshei); 4th (Dret); Galop caprice (Raff). 3rd: Musical Portraits (Blind Tom); Funerals for organ (Lemmens); Concerto No. 4 (Bubingin).
Mr. Calhoun was given a splendid reception. He was supported by Fredrick D. Hackley, tenor; H. T. Lord, who gave a cornet imitation, and Sophia Hallery, renders.
John Payne in America.
John Payne, a baritone, who went to England some years ago with the South African Synagogue Orchestra, and who recently made a successful appearance at Magnificent Hall, London, in a program of Negro music, is in America on a visit to his relatives. He spent several days in New York City, and called in to see the The Age office. We had a pleasant talk over matters musical, and the one much about conditions in England regards the Negro musician.
He is a timely interpreter in interest to the Negro community on an occasion of his great
music, and as a result, mid Mr. Payne, the race in general is finding a more friendly atmosphere. Mr. Payne has gone to Seattle. Wash, where his folks are now, but will return shortly to England to pursue further his work as a recitalist of Negro folk music under the patronage of the Hon. grapple Lady Mary Cook and her husband of Dougherty House, Richmond. Mr. Payne has already made four records for the "Master's Voice" Phonograph, the English connection of the American Victor Co. two of Burleigh's Spirituals, "Go down, Mones" and "I want to be ready," and two by Lawrence Prown, "Nobody knows the trouble I see" and "Everytime I feel the Spirk." He is under contract for a number of others, he informs me.
Hotel Clendening Boys.
The waiters and bellmen of the Hotel Clendening gave a concert-ball at New Star Casino on Friday evening, December 7, at which the concert program was in charge of Will H. Ray, of Ray's Creole Belles, and Bob Slater of the C. V. B. A. Slater was in direct charge of the program and staged the various acts presented. Dorothy Embry and her girls assisted Bob in the opening number, "Old Black Joe," sung by him, first with an invisible chorus, repeated then with the girls, in handsome costumes, doing a country dance with Slater. La-Perla (Pearl Woods), contortionist and oriental dancer, did a splendid number and Webb and his wife presented a speciality. Dorothy Embry and girls gave two other dance numbers, the finale being a whirlwind rendition of the "Chateleton."
Clarence Bush and two other vocalists from the Cefl Club Orchestra, which played for the concert and ball, sang several numbers with good effect. A number of the white guests from the hotel were present, in addition to the many personal friends of the boys. James Manigault is president of the
Tuskegee's Junior Class Sings "Hermit of Hawaii" A comic Opera in 2 Acts
Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—Fritz from the opening scene of native Hawaiian—girls in flower beddecked gowns and youths in white suits—and the chorus of "Let Us Introduce Ourselfs," the "Hermit of Hawaii," a two-act comic opera by Arthur Penn, presented by the Junior Class on Wednesday evening, November 28, in the Institute chapel, was delightfully diverting. Under the direction of Mrs. W. T. B. Williams, the teacher of English for this, the Spartan Class of '25, this play was the Thanksgiving entertainment for the school.
The play concerned the love edict of the "Prince Kanopi," (Raymond Thompson of San Francisco) and the exposure by three Americans of the non-existence of the mysteries "Hermit," under whose influence the Prince pretends to act, and the winning by one of them of the hand of the pretty princess, "Kilimi," (Misa Play Writ of Cambellom, Pls.). The chorus work of the cast was particularly fine and the Institute orchestra supported the singing of chorus and soloists with a united harmony that was gratifying to the most discriminate taste for amateur theatricals. The moonlight scene and dance deserves special mention; it was decidedly atmospheric in its air of languid and velvet security.

WILSON LAMB
SPORT COMMENT By WILLIAM E. CLARK
THE NEW YORK AGE
MIXED BOUTS ARE BANNED BY BORING COMMISSION OF PA
Although Pennsylvania is the only state having a Negro member on the State Athletic Commission, William H. Rocap, its chairman, announced on December 10 that mixed bouts would not be sanctioned in Pennsylvania. Chairman Rocap was quoted in the daily press as saying, "it was not deemed prudent nor for the best interest of the sport to have Negroes and whites meet in ring combat." Clubs ignoring the Commission's announcement, he said, may have their licenses revolted.
The matter of mixed bouts in Pennsylvania was brought to the attention of members of the Commission on December 8, when Wilbur Cohen of New York went before a member of the Commission to get his money for a bout which he won the previous night against Lao Reynolds, a white boxer. The bout was staged at the Golden Gate A. C., a colored box, of which Mrs. B. Plenty is the owner and Bobby Dobbs the matchmaker. The other star bout on the card was to have been between Geo. Godfrey and Rough House Ware. Godfrey knocked Ware clean out of the ring in the first round, ending the fight before it had hardly been started.
The New York fighters and their managers alleged that although the bouts drew a large crowd, the matchmaker refused to pay the fighters according to agreement, and several of them made complaint to Commissioner White, the colored member. He ordered the money paid and the matchmaker then gave them checks dated one week ahead, claiming that the expense of getting the club strained had gotten their funds low. Some of the fighters objected to this kind of check and again went before the Commission with their grievances. As the colored Philadelphia's had planned another club for the staging of mixed bouts, it is thought that they will fight the recent ruling of the Commission.
AT THE LAFAYETTE THEATRE
Irvin Miller, who is appearing in his new show, "Dinah," at the Lafayette Theatre, has in preparation another new production which will shortly be produced on Broadway and being desirous of obtaining new talent and new faces has arranged on stage Tuesday night to hold a "Charlotte Contest," and on Thursday night to a "Popularity Contest," so as to bring the taking that might be unable to compete to show what they have. It is well known that many possess just what is needed but the lack of opportunity to show same has hindered them from getting positions on the stage and for this especial reason the above contests, are being held.
The winners will receive contracts to appear in the new show that is, to be produced. Those who wish to take part are asked to leave their names at the box office and appear at the theatre the night of the contest.
The above contests will be given in addition to the regular show, which has been retained for a third week by the management of the Lafayette Theatre.
The week of December 17 will positively be the last for "Dinah" at the Lafayette.

St. Paul Eleven Beats
Raleigh, N. C.-In the last, game of the season here on Thanksgiving Day, St. Paul School of Lawrenceville, Va., won a 3-0 victory over Shaw University. The game was the first meeting of the two teams in Raleigh and was witnessed by a crowd of 4,000 people.
The North Carolineans looked more like the celebrated Shaw machine of a decade ago than it has looked for some time. They played a clean game and fought valiantly from the kickoff to the final whistle. The St. Paul team had the better offensive and was able to score in the second period from a placement kick by Walker from the thirty yard line. During the last half of the game, Walker tried for three overfield goals and missed one by only four inches.

AT THE LINCOLN THEATRE
While the thermometer in New York was breaking heat records of thirty years standing. Gloria Swanson set a record for sustained emotionalism in a scene from "Zaza" during the filming of that superb production at the Paramount Long Island studio. Miss Swanson remained in tears constantly during five hours for one of the most dramatic scenes in the picture. So far as is known she established a record for sustained emotion that has never been equalled by any screen star.
Miss Swanson's remarkable work was done in Zaza's love nest when Zaza learns that her sweetheart, Dufrene, has a wife and that he is leaving France for Amarica. She runs the gamut of emotions in the scene, passing rapidly from hate to franny, mackery to jealousy and then to bitter contrition.
Tears roll from Miss Swanson's eyes throughout the sequence. When the electricians were changing the lights for new photographic angles of the action, she sat in a corner and cried softly for herself, keeping in character from the time Director Dwan started the scene until he finished it four hours later, without a break except for necessary technical delays.
"She is the most remarkable actress I ever saw on stage or screen," declared Mr. Dwain. "Her work in this picture has been amazing. She spaces perfectly and there seems to be no limit to the depth of her emption.
