Norfolk Journal and Guide RACE LOSES A MILLION DOLLARS IN THE BIG NEW BERN FIRE VOL. XXII. NO. 49 EIGHT PAGES CITY EDITION CHURCHES AND HOMES FELL PREY TO THE FLAMES CHURCHES AND HOMES FELL PREY TO THE FLAMES Jobless And Homeless Must Have Work And Shelter; Relief Agencies Rendering Admirable Aid To Sufferers. STATE TO OPEN PUBLIC WORK FOR UNEMPLOYED New Bern Collegiate Institute was destroyed by fire Wednesday of this week thus adding $15,000 more to the loss of the colored people of the city. Newbern, N. C.—With 2,000 homeless colored people, 1,000 jobless workers, hundreds of gaunt barren children, and an area of two square miles comprising the whole part of the city that was once the center of the colored residence section are the sorrowful evidences of the heavy toll the disastrous fire that swept this city last week exacted from the race population. It is estimated that colored people lost in property values nearly a million dollars. One estate held by race relations was owned by a group of eleven hundred homes. The total loss to the city according to the best estimates is around $2,000,000 and the homeless population totals more than three thousand persons. People here are the chief sufferers, but since the passing of the catastrophe succor has come from city officials, neighboring towns, the Red Cross and other charitable organizations, the ordinance and hundreds of other kindly disposed persons and today the relief is being materially felt. Practically all of the burned out and waste destitute and every necessary worker is to be supplied by the relief workers. STARTED IN RESIDENCE The fire started in the home of Mr. Henry Bryan in the heart of the colored residence section and aided by a strong wind quickly spread to adjoining property. Fire alarms were turned in but at that time the city's fire brigade quickly fought a fire at the plant of the Roper Lumber Company. This plant gave work to about 500 colored men. By the time the fire apparatus responded to the alarm in the residence section the limes had spread over a square mile of land, and that the whole city was doomed. The water pressure was low and it was soon clear that the pumping of the stream on the confaguration was futile. Firemen then resorted to dynamite, finally succeeded in checking the flames by blowing up the houses in its pathway. WOMEN AND CHILDREN FRANCIC As the fire mowed down the homes of these toilers, the accumulation of years of effort, women and children ran frantically up and down the streets wringing their hands and shrieking through fear and mental stress as they raised their entire earthly possession. Thousands of dollars worth of household goods and personal effects were dragged from the burning buildings to the streets only to be consumed in a heap by the unchecked flames. The woman was forgotten, in the turmell and left in a house to burn to death. Among the race members who lost heavily in the fire are: Lawyer W. A. Williamson, fine residence; Dr. P. H. Williamson, fine residence; store; Mr. Joseph Anderson, home and wall paper establishment; Mrs. I. H. Smith, fine residence on Johnston street; Mr. C. W. Poole, fine home on Berne street; Mr. I. H. Williamson, fine residence and about five hundred houses belonging to the Issac H. Smith estate. The late Isaac H. Smith was considered for years the wealthiest Negro that North Carolina ever produced. CHURCHES DESTROYED The finest colored churches in the city fell victims to the flames among which were: St. Peters' A. M. E. Zion, (Mother Zion) the largest in the city and holding a history inseparable from the North Carolina city. Rev. W. W. Thompson was the pastor of this church. Rue Chapel, Rev. J. A. Smith, pastor and Ebenezer Presbyterian Church, are both a total loss. Rev. Smith's pretensions in George street was also destroyed. Business houses that were owned and operated by colored people destroyed: Dr. W. N. Williams' den of business on North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, and scores of tailor shops, barber shops and other small businesses. Hundreds of tents are pitched at Camp Bragg where many homes are housed. Many others have found shelter with friends and relatives in neighboring towns. The city officials are bending every effort to bring immediate relief to the fire victims and the state government will provide construction in order that the jobless may have work. Only one President of the United States, Ullysses Grant, was a graduate of West Point Academy, and none of the naval academy at Annapolis.

Hampton Clinches Title; Lincoln Downs Howard Win Over Union Gives "Seasiders" Undisputed Championship; Washington Classic Honors Go To Law's Warriors. By H. A. Cornish Hampton, Va.—In her closest contest of the season, Hampton Institute defeated Virginia Union University by a score of 8 to 5, and thus became the undisputed champions of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association of the Middle Atlantic States. Twenty-five hundred people from Hampton and surrounding cities present to cheer their respective teams on to victory. GUNN DROP KICKS Promptly at 2:30 Union kicked off to Hampton. The pigskin got as far as Hampton's 30 yard line. On the yards, Jacobs then called upon Gunn, who sent the ball down to Union's 43 yard line. Gunn ground to any extent and punted to her 43 yard mark. Hampton fumbled on her first play, but Dame Fortune smiled on her and she recovered the oval. Jacobs called a new signal. Gunn dropped back and waded Harding into the field with a field goal from the 35 yard line. (MORRIS BROWN) (Washington Correspondent) Washington, D. C.—The Orange and Blue clad football eleven of Lincoln University defeated the Howard team by the score of 15 to 12 in the annual Thanksgiving Day classic. Howard's defeat was in a large measure due to the waiting tactics employed in the first half when they used nothing but straight football; and when they finally unintentionally gained ground to any extent and punted to her 43 yard mark. Hampton fumbled on her first play, but Dame Fortune smiled on her and she recovered the oval. Jacobs called a new signal. Gunn dropped back and waded Harding into the field with a field goal from the 35 yard line. NO TITLE AT STAKE The game was played at the American League ball park. The setting was wonderful. Fully ten-thousand persons witnessed the struggle. On opposite sides of the field, each other were the Howard and Lincoln rooters, with their brass bands and cheer leaders, alternately yelling themselves hoarse as one or the other of the two eleven would appear to have the advantage. For both eleven titles a stake; for both eleven had gone down to defeat before the powerful Union received the ball on her 30 yard line and punted out of danger to Hampton's 45 yard line. Hampton fumbled on her next play. This time Hampton's 40 yard line. After attempting a line plunge and an end run, Union kicked behind the goal. Hampton received the ball on her 20 yard line and punted to Union's 40 yard line. Jackson, the receiver, hit on his tool in the next play. He hit the "Sensiders" barrier and gained 19 yards. The Institute wall stiffened and held Union for downs. Gunn punted out of danger to Union's 40 yard line. A fumble by the Kitchener and Cardozo began to hit the Union line. A fumble by Hampton and McDonald covered it for Union. The Union backs tried the Hampton line on two occasions but did not gain an opportunity forward pass ended the quarter. UNION MAKES TOUCHDOWN Jackson punted on his fourth down to Hampton's 90 yard line. With his back to the wall, Gunn sent the pigskin to the visitors' 49 yard line. Union tried her lightning end runs and famous triple passes, but they were not enough. After an incomplete pass Jackson was forced to kick. Cardozo received the punt on his 20 yard line. Gunn returned the punt to the 50 yard line. Here things began to pick up. Through repeated line plunges and a forward pass from Jackson to W. A. Smith, which netted 30 yards. NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1922 (MORRIS BROWN) (Washington Correspondent) Washington, D. C.—The Orange and Blue clad football eleven of Lincoln University defeated the Howard University team by the score of 13 to 12 in their annual Thanksgiving Day class. Howard's defeat was in a large measure due to the waiting tactics employed in the first half of the game, being the straight football, and when the final corked their stuff, it was too late, for Lincoln had scored and their morale had been bolstered up. NO TITLE AT STAKE The game was played at the American League ball park. The setting was wonderful. Fully ten-thousand persons witnessed the struggle. On opposite sides of the field facing each other were the Howard and Lincoln rooters, with their brass bands and horns. The players themselves hoarse as one or the other of the two eleven would appear to have the advantage. There was no mythical title at stake; for both elevens had gone down to defeat before the powerful Hampton Institute eleven, and Lincoln had bowed to the West Virginia Collegiate Institute team as well. Yet, the game was a fitting climax to a great football season. HOWARD FALLS Lincoln won the toss and received the kickoff. The two teams fought doggedly, Lincoln using an aerial offensive and occasionally skirting the Howard right and left ends or sending a back through the line. Howard scored twice, and the ball to the Lincoln two-yard line only to lose it on downs. Lincoln kicked and the two teams fought in Continued on Page Eight Shaw And Union Play Here Dec. 15 Arrangements have just beep completed for a game between the crack football eleven of Shaw University, Raleigh, N.

MATTER NOW UP TO THE PRESIDENT (Special to Journal and Guide) Washington D. C.—The nomination of Walter L. Cohen, of New Orleans, La., to be compilier of customs at New Orleans, failed of confirmation Monday when more than 1,700 nominations were confirmed by the Senate in the closing hours of the special session. The Committee on Commerce, to which it had been referred, did not report to the Senate on the nomination. Therefore, no action was taken up nit; but under the law it dies with the expiration of the session of Congress during which it was made. Mr. Cohen has been serving as compilor of customs at New Orleans under a recess appointment by President Harding, and his nomination for the office was sent in a day or two after the special session convened. At first it was thought that there would be no opposition to the Cohen appointment. But Governor John M. Washington, of who came to Washington under the secrecy seeking aid from the Federal Government to rid his state of the Ku Klux Klan and lawlessness, demanded of the President that he withdraw the nomination, and refused to help the President to do so, he told him that he would carry, the fight to the Senate. A few days later Senator Randle, Democrat, of Louisiana, served notice that he would oppose the confirmation of declaring the nominee to be personally obnoxious. The matter is now with the President. He can either renominate Mr. Washington upon his confirmation or he can be given the successes and then give him another recess appointment. ADMINISTRATION ABANDONED DYER BILL Five Day Filibuster By Democrats Prevented The Measure From Being Called Up For Consideration In Senate. (MORRIS BROWN) (Washington Correspondent) Washington, D. C.—After five days of a Democratic filibuster, the Dyer anti-lynching bill is dead; an agreement having been reached by the Republican Senators in a party caucus on last Saturday to abandon all efforts to enact this bill. The filibuster began on Monday, November 27, when Senator Shortridge, Republican, of California, moved that the Senate proceed to the consideration of the anti-lynching bill. The Senate reached for Democratic Senators immediately began their dilatory tactics. Senators Underwood, of Alabama, and Harrison, of Mississippi, were the leaders. They characterized the anti-lynching bill as a "military bill" and a unconstitutional. They charged that the Republicans were not sincere in their desire to enact this legislation and stated that they would receive them of their burden by assuming responsibility or the defeat of the bill. They charged that they were filibustering and prevented the transaction of any business during the time of their filibuster. They were threatening more than a thousand nominations, which would soon when the special session ended would have had to be resubmitted.

While spectators stood at the grave watching the lowering of the body of a man supposed to be John Howard, in its final resting place, they were astonished as detective Loon Novitzwormies, as detective Loon Novitzwormies, had the coffin opened to establish the identity of the corpse. The officer was acting upon the request of undertaker Hale, who had 'inside' information that the body was that of a man known by another name in this city. It was shipped from Philadelphia to Norfolk as that of John Howard. The detective immediately identified it as James Griffin alias "Stick Gin", who was wanted for escaping from the penitentiary, where he was serving an eight year term for highway robbery. Griffin was sent up from this city and had served only a small part of his time. It is supposed that "Stick Gin" fled to Philadelphia after his escape, where he was held in Norfolk, which probably caused his body to be shipped here under that name. WOMAN SENT INFORMATION A woman in Philadelphia, who knew the man, wired to undertaker Hale informing him of the circumstances, and the undertaker, to fully establish the identity summoned the detective. The identity will enable "Stick Gin's" relatives to collect on two life insurance policies he carried whereas "John Howard" had no insurance. Final prints were taken for the insurance companies before the burial was completed, as the relatives learning of the identity mentioned the fact of the insurance. The insurancecession had left the undertaker's parlor and was at the church when the detective arrived. He allowed it to proceed to the grave before interrupting.

Phone 203 Chain Gangs and County Jails In North Carolina Doomed To Go SOCIAL SERVICE DEALS PENAL SYSTEM A BLOW Committee Of One Hundred Discloses Unspeakable Conditions Existing In These Institutions The county jails and convict camps of North Carolina, institutions as old as the state itself, have received the knock-out is only a matter of a short time. These supposedly institutions of correction, but according to modern social science, institutions of degradation and damnation, have recently come under the scrutiny of the Committee of One Hundred on Prison Legislation from the North Carolina Social Service and what that committee reports and recommends in regards to them means that they are doomed to be ousted from the confines of progressive 'communities'. Condition is necessary to exist in the camps and chain gangs of the state are set forth by the Elizabeth City Independent (white) in the following graphic description: "The Committee of One Hundred on Prison Legislation from the North Carolina. Social Service, which held its first meeting in Greensboro last Friday lifted the curtain and let North Carolinians see the unspeakable conditions existing in our jails and prison camps. The sight was astounding; men and women herded together in unspeakable places; men strung up by their thumbs and lashed; prisoners punished by being locked in dungeons 20 inches wide and 20 inches deep by six feet high; living souls encased in very coffins; boys encased in bars and narrow cells with hardened convicts; a highly sound herded together with the tubercular and syphilitic, sometimes six in a cell. One place was liked to the Black Hole of Calcutta by Wiley B. Sanders, Executive Secretary of the Conference on Social, Service, who helped to investigate the conditions reported. "And now we are going to see a change. We are going to see a change because an enlightened public conscience in North Carolina is going to demand a change in North Carolinians get anything they go after and the best thought in North Carolina is going after a better way of dealing with our delinquent population. "People. in jails are not fundamentally different from people out of jails. Those in jail represent only a small part of those who got caught and couldn't pay out. A larger number got caught at all. But we have built our whole penal system with the idea of punishment and terrorizing every erring human who pens to get caught. Most of our jails were never built with an idea of imprisoning white men at all—they were built for the nigger, for the 'damned nigger,' and anything is good enough for a nigger." "And now a special committee of the Committee of One Hundred that met last week is going to draft a legislative program looking to a revolution in our whole system of crime punishment. This program may not be carried out in a year, or within the next few years, but it will come because it is North Carolina's way to do things right when once it makes up its mind about a thing. The best thought of the State has made up its mind that county jails and convict camps are generally unspeakably bad. "It is only going to be a question of time when county jails and county convict camps will be abolished entirely and replaced by district prisons and houses of detention. The responsibility for sentencing criminals is going to be taken out of the hands of judges. The idea of making the punishment fit the crime is all wrong and everybody knows it. In future we are going to make the punishment fit the individual. "In future, the judge isn't going to be called upon to pass sentence at all business," the Court will be martyred, the guilty or innocence of the defendant. These found guilty will be sent to a central receiving station where they will be examined by experts as to their physical, mental and moral status and the punishment in each case prescribed by experts guided by exact facts. "The tubercular, the syphilitic and the mentally unsound will be segregated and given proper treatment." "First offenders will be placed in houses of detention and taught something of their obligation to society and given educational help. "Special provision will be made for women offenders. "The sexual pervert will be properly dealt with, so that his diseased mind will never give him or society any more bother. "In every case, the State will endeavor to return the transgressor to Society a better man or woman, desirous of going straight and capable of keeping straight. Continued on Page 7. RALEIGH. N. C.

Norfolk Journal & Guide PUBLISHED, WEEKLY BY THE GUIDE PUBLISHING CO., Inc. 711-17 HIERLAND AYENUE, NORFOLK, VA. Foreign Advertising Representative, W. B. Ziff Co., Chicago, Ill., and New York City. Entered as Second Class Matter at the Post Office at Norfolk, Va. The Democrats accused the Republicans of being insincere in their efforts to pass the Dyer anti-lynching bill, and they were not far wrong. The Senate having failed to confirm Walter L. Cohen, President Harding's appointee as comptroller of customs at New Orleans it remains to be seen if the President will stand pat as Rosevelt did in the Crum case at Charleston, or if he will back down, as he did in the case of his appointment to the office of recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia. "Whoever first thought of this savings club plan certainly did a lot for the grand old institution of Christmas," says an editorial writer. That is correct in the broadest sense. Thousands of people have missed the real purpose behind the idea, which was to teach principles of thrift, and have used the opportunity instead to practice a little extravagance. If just half the money accumulated thru the plan was permanently saved the man who started it would take his place among the greatest benefactors of mankind. LIBERIAN LOAN The Liberian Loan, negotiated by the Wilson Administration, and which should have been authorized long ago, has been murdered in the house of its friends. It is one of the alleged Administration measures which the extra session of Congress was to consider and dispose of. There was no general expectation that the Republican majority would pass the measure. The Democrats were arrayed solidly against it, of course, but we have seen no sufficient reason why they should have been so. It is often difficult to find a reason for many things the Democrats in Congress do, especially where the Negro people are concerned. The resolution authorizing the loan was recommitted to the Finance Committee, as submitted, by Senator Simmons, by a vote of 42 to 33. It was committed without instructions, and we do not see that there is a possibility of the resurrection of it. Senator Reed, of Missouri, went the limit of demagogy and cowardice when he declared: "We have not got money enough to build roads for cannibals in Africa to take missionaries out and roast them." The Liberian government is a civilized country and a member of the League of Nations, and that is a great deal more than Senator Reed, who opposed our membership in the League of Nations, is or ever will be. American statesmanship has gotten down to a fearfully low level and it is going to take a long time and infinite labor to get it back to normalcy. BLACK SOLDIERS ON THE RHINE Georges Clemenceau, the former Premier of France during the trials of the World War and in concluding such a peace as resulted afterwards, is visiting the United States in the effort to show us that France is not militarist in its policies, but that the logic of the situation compels it to be on the defensive, less the Germans recover their fighting power and invade France again. He has lived through two such invasions and he dreads to live through a third. He claims that the existing condition of affairs came about because the United States withdrew from the European situation too soon after the World War, and that it is the business of the United States to help fetch Europe out of the confusion and misery produced by the War. M. Clemenceau's presentation of the case has aroused a storm of protest and discussion in the Federal Senate, especially among Democratic politicians, but the people everywhere receive M. Clemenceau gladly and give him a royal welcome. Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, a Democrat, who has just been defeated of election to succeed himself, has been particularly venomous in denunciation of M. Clemenceau, alleging among other things that France has maintained "black savage" troops on the German Rhineland, and holding Negro soldiers up to scorn and derision, in spite of the fact that any one, perhaps the least of these soldiers, of France or the United States, rendered more and better service in the World War than did Senator Hitchcock, who, like many another statesman, is much a talker of the word and not much a doer of it. M. Clemenceau has met Mr. Hitch- cock's allegations squarely. "They are all lies," he says. There are no black troops remaining on the Rhine. They have all been removed. They are stationed all over France and they are acceptable to the French people. He says the American Negro soldiers were among the best behaved and most valiant in France, and he advises Senator Hitchcock to visit Boston and study the statue of Colonel Robert Gould Shaw, who was "buried with his Niggers" at Fort Sumter. M. Clemenceau is the French Tiger in fact. His American enemies have found that out. Briefs and Spices (BY g. J. C.) The way of the transgressor is not a buy way. Many people think Mr. Volstead got left because his amendment hasn't got a right. The business revival has converted a lot of mourners who should have been thrown out. It takes burnt cork to produce comedy, but a burnt beefsteak is the beginning of a real honeymoon tragedy. From New York comes a report that a woman committed suicide to keep warm. Another proof that some folks know their destination. The funny thing about conquering the good will of all mankind, at this season is, a concurring is also inevitable. Only Turkey that didn't meet with some sort of mishap last Thanksgiving is overseas. But not "half sea over." --- The shooting of a young man in Norfolk by his would-be affinity indicates that it makes a very difficult matter when love, self-determination and an automatic are not mixed with self-control. ```markdown ``` We heard a good many of fair rooters at the Howard-Lincoln game say: "I wish I understood football."

What became of the money for Willie Jacobs, who lost his eye in Richmond, November 11, 1922? That is the question asked by the writer. Up to the time Willie Jacobs has not received five cents of the money collected at the park and donated by the loyal fans who deposited it in the head gear that was passed around for the purse, aiding the unfortunate player. Both white and colored people donated largely and the Adelphis came to this city from Richmond at a sacrifice price to play a benefit game for the unfortunate player. The officials donated their fees to Willie Jacobs. As yet none of the money has been received by him or his physician, Dr. Burke (white). The head members of the N. A. C. promised to pay Dr. Burke for his services, but up to December 1st. they had not even him one cent. Is this the way 25 men want to show to the public what they think of the sport of football? Now, N. A. C. come across with that $100.00 for Dr. Burke and show to the other race how we stand behind our fellowmen by paying the debt. Also look after Willie Jacobs' wife. Over 9,450,000 pounds of meat cured, 2,600,000 pounds of lard, and 3,900,000 pounds of sausage made in 1921 in farm homes where none had been made before are reported to the United States Department of Agriculture as the result of demonstration in meat conservation by home demonstration agents.

First Baptist Church—An excellent Sunday echo was featured here last Sunday. Two visitors were present and gave very helpful and inspiring tales. They were Mrs. Robinson and Knotle. Knotle clocked the church as she reached the 84th Psalm and interesting sermon. B. Y. P. U. was very good and is doing fine. Many visitors were also with this church at night Work of Colored Salvation Army Shows Very Active Year In a statement issued by the colored branch of the Salvation Army of this city covering the work of the Army for the year November 1921 to November 1922, is shown that the branch has been vigorously active in rescue work among the colored people of Norfolk for that period. The statement shows that 66 persons have confessed conversion thru the Army's influence: that members of the Army have visited and prayed with 3,868 churched; distributed food to 2,074 shelter; distributed food to 2,172 persons; clothes and shoes to 100 and medical aid and transportation to 12. In addition to the above the Army distributed Thanksgiving parcels to a number of needy families, which was made possible largely through a donation of groceries and money by the children of the J. H. Smythe school on Queen street, which was brought about through the influence of teachers: Mrs. C. James, Miss E. Wright and Miss M. E. Anderson. The students are asked to their little charge thanks for the interest manifested in the rescue work. The ladies of the Needle Craft Club also assisted materially in this respect through a donation of a shower of groceries. The president of the club, Mrs. D. W. Byrd, and all members are extended the hearty thanks of the Army. Christmas dinner for 150 poor families, clothes, shoes and toys for children are the immediate objectives of the army and the cooperation of every citizen organization is asked to help out the children launched for this purpose. The colored branch of the Salvation Army is in daily receipt of applications for help from the needy. Any lady or gentleman having worn shoes, especially those that can be used by children, would perform a worthy charitable act by notifying Captain Bryan, 1036 Chapel street, that they may be had as a gift to the Army. "The need is great," states Captain Bryan and the help of the more fortunate will cheer some poor family, poor child whose prospects for a joyful Christmas are decidedly dark. HOBSON, VA. Rev. Thomas Ash, of Norfolk, was here, occupied the pulpit and presided a wonderful sermon Sunday. "Mrs. Sarah Thomas who has been visiting home since time home." Mrs. Martie William Nettle Forster, who spent Thanksgiving Day in Baltimore has returned home. "Mr. George Elliott, is on the sick lick." "Mrs. Hortense Reid, who has been visiting in Jersey City," Mrs. Hortense Reid, of Newport News was here Sunday. "Miss Queen Etter Campbell, of Norfolk, was here Sunday visiting her mother, Mrs. Lizzie Rice. The Hobson baseball team which will play in the state seven will split fifty-fifty with any team coming here to play and pay fare one way. TITUSTOWN BELL'S MILL Mrs. Lennie Bicke IN MEMORIAM BOLLING BROOK Present Activity Indicates That Coming Celebration Will Surpass Previous Years. Norfolk Emancipation Association held a very interesting meeting at the Metropolitan A. M. E. Zion Church Monday evening. Every effort is being made to make the coming celebration a marked success. The president in addressing the meeting called the Association's attention to the fact that the success of the celebration depended on the individual effort of every member of the race, and advised every officer and member of the Association to spare no time or pains to make it a grand affair. Every one, connected with the Association is on the alert and the whole Association is hoping for the best. The chief marshall Lt. Wycham Tyler, is making plans for a big parade in the celebration. Many organizations who have not taken part in the previous celebrations, have decided to down their uniforms and come out. The greatest need at this time is more finance. The finance committee and a special soliciting committee are jointly at work trying to overcome this feature of the Association and this forms an important link in the completion of the arrangements. All are urged to contribute to the fund and thereby settle this state of affairs. The Association will meet again on Monday evening, December 11 at the same place to hear the committee's report, looking forward to final arrangements. Booker T. High Beats Richmonders With a steam roller line and a stonewall back field moving with lightning like speed, Booker T. Wiseington High School eleven defeated Armstrong High squash of Richmond on Union University Campus Thanksgiving Day. Armstrong took the lead in the first and second quarters. Costly fumbles were the price of Norfolk not scoring in the first half. The second half began with Booker T. receiving and Harris carrying the ball up to Armstrong's 40 yard line where the smooth work began with a steady moving line advancing to the five yard line where Allen Taylor carried the ball over for a touchdown. West failed to add the extra point. Booker T. received again and Harmon Armstrong's line for 60 yards. Peery the owl to the four yard line where the boys were held for downs. Spectacular plays featured the remainder of the quarter. Many visitors from Norfolk who were in the city attending the teachers' meeting witnessed the game. Armstrong Position B.T. Wash. Booker L.E.

College showed her superiority in football over the National Training School from Durham by making three touchdowns and two successful tries for points after touchdown in the first half. The second half was played with mostly second string man who were eager to get into the fray. Both teams played hard, but clean ball. The first half ended with the ball in A. and T.'s possession on the forty yard line and the score standing 20 to 0 for A. and T. Skirts of both flanks and the line plunging of Captain Howell did much ground gaining for the locals whose goal was never in danger from time of the whistle to start the game until the whistle that notified the battling teams that the playing time was over. In the third quarter another touchdown was added to A. and T's side, as a result of consistent ground gaining through the visitor's line. Trick plays and passes were the outstanding attack; but they were styled by the hawk eyes of A. and T's back men. Howell, Bell, Brown and Lane did stellar work for the winners; while Nutal, Wilson and Coffeld, did the best work for the losers. LINEBACK AND SUMMARY A. and T., 26 Position N. T., S., 0 Lane L. E.

Y.—An editorial in the New York Sun, October 14, states that the recovery of industry in the North has again brought a severe shortage of unskilled labor with the restriction of immigration from Europe there arises again a demand for Negro labor which will undoubtedly give rise to large movements of Negroes from the South to the North. The editorial ends by saying: "Apparently the colored race in the United States is not destined to remain permanently segregated in one section. It was the special adaptability of the Negro workers for the industrial needs of the Southern colonies which first brought them to these shores; their increasing fitness for the requirements of the industrial North is now attracting them in turn to other sections."

WAR DEPARTMENT MAKES CONTRADICTION Citizen Receives Signed Communication Asserting That Allegations Are Exaggerated. New York, N. Y.—The position of Georges Clementeau, the Tiger of France, of the Anglo-Saxon majors concerning colored soldiers in German Rhineland by Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, is supported in a communication received by Jonas Lippman from the War Department at Washington. Jonas wrote a letter to the Secretary of War calling attention to a statement attributed to an American officer and published in the Deutsche-American, a weekly German language paper of this city, recently published by Edward J. LaBlank, "an officer in the United States Army," contained vague charges against the colored troops. The communication received by Mr. Lippman in reply to his letter was signed by adjutant-general Robert C.

A certain man was going down from the robbers, etc. to Jericho and fell among robbers, etc. and was chanced to pass that way, but when they saw the wounded man, they pass by on the other side. Why should they stop to help an unknown man? If this stranger had belonged to their group, they would have haken to remind them ever so easily can. We justify that priest and Levite from our own experience? I have been away from home and must hurry back. This is a dangerous place to stop, to help a man. He may be angry, he may be sick, no good. No doubt it is his own fault. Some one else will very likely look after him. Have you let one these excuses turn you into a selfish Pharisee? The Jericho road passes every door. We travel it every day. Do we help or do we pass the week of the exile? (Mr. Hugo). The priest was selfishly afraid of risk, trouble, and ceremonial defilement, and since no one was there to know of his conduct, he was thus led to neglect the traditional kindness of Jews towards their own country, the Law and the Prophets, (Deut. 22:4; Is. 58:7)-Cambridge Bible. 3.

We exploit each other, and thus leave a man wounded on the road. The attitude of the priest and Levite. To them the wounded man was a nuisance, to be avoided. Here Jesus shows us how-not to solve the social problem. Such men are still with us. They solved the problem of the robber. Many people have not feeling like white people, and that negroes were happier as slaves. If poor people, they tell us, got higher wages, they would only spend them for drink.

A man writes me from Suffolk Conducted By MIRIAM DIXON All Brownie's, letters that do not appear, this week will appear next. Letters that arrive a little late have to be carried over to the next issue. Don't get impatient, all help is needed. BROWNIE EDITOR. Once upon a time there was a little boy who didn't like to go to Sunday school and church. One Sunday on his way home he met a fox in the woods. "Here are you going?" said the fox. "What are you going and I don't intend to come back. what is to you?" and the naughty child went on. He next met a funny little man with red eyes and a long nose and he went to speak to the man. "None of you business!" replied Harold. "All right I'll take you along with me, since you are so smart." And he grabbed Harold and carried him away to his cave. "The cave children aughed and poured in the cave. What a naughty funny child. We will put him in the big oven tonight and make a fine aupper." The little fellow was so frightened at this that he wished himself safe at home. "What can you do to make them like me," he thought and began to sing a beautiful Sabbath song. When he finished they gave him their father's mike boots and told him to run home as fast as he could, and he did, never stopping to look back. He then came to him from the cave folk and he would never fret about going to church again. TALKS TO BROWNIES Brownies, 'see that the boys and girls around you read the club news.

C.—There was presented at the Coliseum Assembly and Reception held the evening of Thanksgiving day after the "Football Classic of the Year" to the captain of the winning football. In the "Champion Football" at 12 o'clock, midnight. The presentation was produced by an informal program of short talks by Dr. W. G. Alexander, Dr. George E. Cannon, and Coach John Law, representing Lincoln University; President J. Stanley Durkee, and Coach W. E. Morrison, representing Howard University; and the captains of the two, eleven. This program in no way interfered with the Evening Assembly and Reception, but offered opportunity to see the Lincoln and Howard teams "close up." Mr. Louis N. Brown, the popular musical conductor, and his Deluxe which could not be resisted by the Society Orchestra were at their best and offered a musical temptation thousands of friends who were here from all parts of the country. The Coliseum affairs in the afternoon and light made special appeal because they were given in the interest of and for the benefit of the Department of Physical Education of Howard University.

It looked as though the Hampton line would stiffen and hold Union for downs, but after two more plays, which netted 7 yards, Jackson put the ball over on the fourth down for Union's lone score. An attempt for the extra point by the air route failed. HAMPTON SCORES TWICE Capt. "Red" Dabney, Hampton's All-American center, kicked off to Union's 27 yard line. Union advanced the ball to her 37 yard line. A penalty of 15 yards was imposed on Union. Jackson covered a bad pass behind his goal line, where he was downed by A. Ruffin, Hampton's fast end. The result was a safety, which netted two points for Hampton. In the mix-up Jackson's nose was injured, and he was forced to leave the field. Union took possession of the pigskin on her 30 yard line. After Huerlen had been thrown for a loss of 90 yards, he turned to 30 yard line. Hardwick, after making 7 yard gain, fumbled, and Union recovered on her 43 yard line. With only two seconds to play, Gunn dropped back and from a difficult angle sent the ball skimming over the cross-bar, netting the three points which won the game for Hampton.

A SERIES OF THRILLS The second half furnished thrills galore. More than once were the nerves of the spectators at the highest pitch. Union worked the hall to Hampton's 20 yard line. An attempted forward pass to her 1 yard line failed. At another time Union was within striking distance. On the 16 yard line Jackson, who had returned to the game, attempted to drop kick. His failure saved the day for the Institute boys. Union did not furnish all the thrills. Several of Hampton's second string backs were thrust into the front of the team. Plain old idea to the team. The "Seasiders" mopped straight down the field to Union's 1 yard line. Then a fumble. Union covered and punted out of danger. In the last few minutes of play Union again had possession of the pigskin. Long forward passes were being completed. Union was going strong. Jacobs, the quarterback, intercepted one of these and ran 15 yards as the whistle blew ending the game. Jackson, Hulcs and Derritt were easily the stars for Union. The entire Hampton team played stellar ball. Too much cannot be said of the all-round work of Capt. Edward L. Dabney, All-American center captain. He received the recipient of that honor for the present season. This was Captain Dabney's last game EST S 50,000 ES STOCK Shoe Polish, 5c 10c and 15c Shoe Polish in black, tan and ox-blood.
