WOULD OBSERVE CRISPUS ATTUCKS "BLOOD DAY" An Exponent of Truth and Justice VOL. XIII NO. 42 Equal Rights League Makes An Appeal For The Negro Race Because Of Its War Record. Cites Fact That A Colored Man Was The First To Shed Blood For American Independence. **BOSTON, Mass., Feb. 9.** -Crispian Attacks observations to signalize the 155th anniversary of the day when on March 5, 1770, the Colored American began giving the last full measure of devotion to this county which it has never failed in doing since, are carefully urged by the National Equal Rights League from National headquarters here. The League holds that to make March 8th an annual race day for public honor to this Colored hero who was the first of all martyrs to give his life in actual fight for the indie presence of this country, in a most effective method to keep alive the race's strongest claim to liberty and racial equality, namely its long, unattained record of fighting, bleeding and dying as soldiers in every war of the republic. As "blood is the price of liberty" with the white races, it is urged that March 5 be made our "Citizenship Foundation Day," on which the race has such a logical opportunity to prove and emphasize our original Americanism and our ground-title to every right of citizenship through furnishment of the co-armor to the establishment of the nation. On the day race can well remind white Americans of the great help we have been to them time and again when the country was in serious danger, as soldiers—who have always fought the white enemies of the country's honor or security, with loyalty and bravery. Such a Race Day, representing not what the white race has done for us, but what we have done for our fellow Americans when they asked for sacrifice, can be utilized to lay hard ground for justice of the franchising, Jim-Crowning, and lynching a racial element which has never produced a traitor from Boston Massacre to the World War for Democracy which we helped to win for the saving of white civilization everywhere. Equal Rights Sunday The League especially recommends, in view of the date this year bein the day after inauguration, that in mass meeting the Colored citizens from mass meeting appeals to President Calvin Coolidge to setts to end, color segregation by the federal government at the national government in the name of Attucks, Colored American, the nation's first marryr. "On the day previous let every Colored pastor," the call reads, "pray God for relief from this race discrimination perpetrated by the same national government at whose orders our race has so often should- hold the musket, making it "Equal Rights Sunday." The League will furnish Crisp Attucks leagues by application to the Corresponding Secretary, Wm. Monroe Trottes, 102 Court street, Boston, Mass. INTRODUCES ANTI-EQUAL RIGHTS BILL IN COLORADO DENVER.

Ohio Legislator Would Bar Intermarriage Of Whites And Other Races In State Preston News Service COLUMBIA, Ohio, Feb. 11.—Representative George H. Roberts, of Youngstown, the district of Ohio in which the Ku Klux Klan organization is quite large and active, has introduced a bill in the Ohio Legislature to prohibit intermarriage of whites with persons of any other race. Ministers would be prohibited marrying white persons to ones of different race. Fines of $5000 or $1,000 and imprisonment from 3 to 9 years would be imposed on persons violating the law. It is said that Mr. Roberts claims that the one-way to preserve racial integrity in this country is to mute out severe punishment to persons who would destroy the purity of the Nordics by intermarrying with other races. He claimed that the recent diagnoza of Brabelhande, Failson and beautiful Grace Johnson would not have occurred had suitable laws been placed on the statute books of the states wherein these marriages took place.

"Striking of America's Hour," the pamphlet delivered by the Central Y." showed the rise and fall of great nations from the time of Egypt to America and the coming of the time when America must be judged.

ATLANTA, Ga., Feb. 9.—What provision should a fair-minded community make for its colored population.

Ady: Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 11. The courses of study in seventeen institutional known as "Land Grant Colleges" and supported by federal and state aid, have been completely revolutionized as the result of a series of conferences sponsored by the department of the interior through the bureau of education. Four conferences have been held the first at Atlanta, Georgia, in 1920; the second at Nashville, Tennessee, in 1922; the third at Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, in 1823; and the fourth at Hampton Institute, Virginia in 1924. The federal government cannot determine what shall be used in these institutions but at their request the bureau of education used its offices to bring into conference with the leaders, experts who recommended improved curricula. Practically all the institutions have reported to the bureau a great development as a result of these conferences. The agricultural, mechanical and normal school at Pine Bluff, Arkansas, has very few chances the recommendations of the conferences have been adopted in their entirety. The State College for colored students at Dover, Delaware, reports: "Our officials have agreed that we shall develop THIRD ANNUAL Y. W. C. A.

The Florida Agricultural and Mechanical college at Tallahassee, Florida, reports: "We have used the program mapped out regarding courses of study in agriculture and home economics as a basis for standardizing work in these branches of the college." The North Carolina Agricultural and Technical College at Greensbrook, North Carolina, reports: "The courses that were mapped out at Nashville have been accepted by the educational authorities of the Bureau of Education of the Bureau of Education. The Southern University and Agricultural and Mechanical College at Baton Rouge, Louisiana, reports: "Atlanta conference inspired us to rearrange our course of study and head it towards some definite aim. At the Nashville conference we got a new program for our home economics department that is working beautifully. There was a reorganization of courses in agriculture and now we find that students take to agriculture more readily than before. We have now four-year colleges. We have now four-year colleges, these are only a few excerpts from the Bureau." The leaders of education in these various Land Grant colleges are so pleased with the results hitherto secured that they are now of Education to call another conference some time in the near future.

UNG gay amity Negro National League Shows Great Strides In Few Years Feeling Of Harmony And Prosperity Prevails At Meeting In St. Louis Recently. Club Owners Vote To Back President To The Limit In Effort To Build Great League. By Natl. Sport Writers' Assn. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Feb. 11.—With the meeting of the Negro National League in St. Louis, Mo., recently and the proteasworthy spirit shown by all the attending members of the league, it seems that the year 1925, the club will change to consider concerned, will go down in the history of the game as the league's greatest season. any number of the league. With the league schedule split in, to sections of fifty games each with a pennant winner at the end of each half, it is predicted that there will be a greater fight made by all clubs of the circuit to land the flag which will be held at the club for the privilege of playing in the world series. From all indications 1925 is going Never before at any of the previous meetings has there ever been exhibited such a wide range of good feeling and satisfaction with the league and its officials as the recent one—and it is this fact, along with the things which of necessity will follow this spirit, that is the one big factor in the optimistic scheme of the league life. The meeting brought out the fact that within the past three or four baseball seasons there have been great and lasting strides made to place the game on fifm ground—perpetuate the national game so that in the next posterity might view its record with just pride. Some of the Accomplishments Among the—accomplishments of the league since its existence will be found that of the baseball player— the hardest factor in the game to deal with. The league has made for him a place where he can an- more than ever before playing inde- pendent ball. It has made of him something heretofore unheard of a potent factor in the financial end of the game. It has made of him an asset to the league and the city which he represents. It has given him a chance to expand, his limit lives within himself. There are also, the club owners of the league. They too, have progressed and prospered according to the amount of intelligent business ability displayed and utilized in the carrying on of their club, their fullness, for today the game is a business. Owners of the club who formerly earned a very small sum from the efforts of their clubs now deal in thousands of dollars annually. Where they formerly were pushed to scrape up a hundred or two on short notice, they now slap down a certified check for a thousand or two. What a change. Through the guiding hand of its president, Andrew R. Foster, the Negro National League made possible the playing of the world's first Negro World Series, a thing which alone should entitle any body of men to a spot in the sunshine of public play, brought forth by both the Browns and the West, the sense of that something greater in the game than personal glory. It has taught them the lesson of team work, for by forgetting self and playing for the team they will be enabled to win a place perhaps on the contesting club with the glory of a championship game—and the apolis. League Roster Filled The dropping of the Detroit Stars from the league will in no way injure or halt its program. The Detroit players remain practically intact and there have been many applications made for a league franchise for that city. Mr. Pierce of California and his associates being granted a franchise at the recent meeting in St. Louis. The failure of the Cleveland club owners to obtain the meeting resulted in another opening which was cared for immediately by the granting of a franchise to Mr. Warner Jewell and associates of Indianapolis. The cry made about the Memphis club was silenced when Mr. Lewis of the Memphis Red Sox qualified along with the rest of the club owners so that now the league can go its way with a full quota composed of: Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, Detroit, Indianapolis, Memphis, Birmingham and the Cuban Stars. Rumors and still more rumors of active in the camp of the league were spiked by the club owners themselves at the last meeting when they volunteered the following information: "We, the undersigned owners of clubs, members of the Negro National League, incorporated, composed of the St. Louis Stars, Kansas City Monarchs, Birmingham Black Barons, Memphis Rod Box, Detroit Stars, Indianapolis, Chicago Ameri- canats and Cuban Stars have examined the books, accounts, and records of the league, Inc., which has been under the direct supervision of the presi- dent since the organization of the league, and find that everything is in good order and that every act has been for the host interest of all, collective and individual, and we do hereby go on record as indorsing and sustaining the records of the league and the handling of same. "Therefore as said soldiers are part and parcel of league, col- and individual, and now please our whole hearted support to the president, Mr. A. B. Porter in his efforts to build a big-er and better league—the Negro National League." "We further pledge our support to any movement that has for its purpose the advancement of the game, the players, and the interest in general for which we have banded together to obtain better base, ball and baseball conditions among that portion of the American citizen, known as the Negro." "Signed: Joe Rush, J. L. Wilkinson, Hatchinom, Dr. G. R. Kay, B. W. Kau, and S. R. Lawin." "In addition, we split manifested during the meeting the club owners of the league also qualified for an additional $20,000.00;仕面 from the $1,000 francise forstit, to insure the living up to rules and regulations of the league in order that there will be slight change for a recurrence of the Detroit case by any member of the league. With the league schedule split in to sections of fifty games each with a pennant winner at the end of each half, it is predicted that there will be a greater fight made by all clubs of the circuit to land the flag which will give them a chance to contest for the privilege of playing in the world series. From all indications 1925 is going to be the banner year for the Negro National League clubs. Schedule of the league games which will start May 2 will appear at an early date. CARBONDALE DEFEATS EAST ST. LOUIS HIGH CARBONDALE, Ill., Feb. 10—The Attucks quintet coach'd by Mr. C. O. Rogers added another victory to its 1st Friday night by defeating the "Jumping Jacks" of the Lincoln High School by a score of 19, to 7. The East St. Louis team is a good one, but was out-played from every angle by the Attucks boys, who played with more system and aggressiveness than ever this season. From all indications the "Attucks Five" will be a dangerous rival in all succeeding games. Howard-Lincoln Football Game Brought $18,341.75 WASHINGTON, D. C. 1900, 221. According to official report made by Dr. Empreyt J. Scott, Business Manager of the Board of Athletic Control of Howard University, which Board has charge of the management of the football classic played at Washington on Thanksgiving Day, 1924, the gross receipts submitted to the 1925-75. This sum represents the largest amount ever before received for a single athletievent in the history of Negro colleges. The receipts from the classis the year before (1923) when the game was played at Philadelphia amounted to $16,578.98. The receipts of the classic here at Washington in 1922 when Howard managed the game amounted to $12,255.39. The total received last November represents an increase of $6,056.36 over the last time Howard managed the classic, and $1,763.77 over the receipts of 1925. In addition, including rent of the American League Park at Washington amounted to $6,343.90 leaving net receipts of $11,997.80, of which Howard as the host receives sixty per cent, or $7,198.68, and Lincoln forty per cent, or $4,799.12. The record set in 1924 by Howard Lincoln will undertake to break at Philadelphia on Thankgiving Day, 1926, but this figure at present represents eight per cent more than manicual return from collegiate event among institutions specializing in the training of colored students. The particularly pleasing feature in connection with the staging of the classic this last year was the unusual case with which the great crowds were handled, both in connection with getting in and out of the park and the securing of the specially reserved seats. Commendation from various sources, included, are the University of Lincoln University, alumni and students of Lincoln, and alumni and students of Howard, have come in connection with this especially pleasing feature of the classic. Next year the management of the gant will be under the supervision of representatives of Lincoln University. MONEY CHECKS A NEW FLOWERS-DELANEY GO AARONIE NEGRO PRESS. NEW YORK, Y. Feb. 11—Ellen G. Coleman with Jack Delaney the boxer who stopped the Tiger in this city recently, failed according to an announcement here Wednesday when it was reported that Flowers demanded more money than Tex Rickard wished to pay in view of his showing against Delaney at the last meeting of the pair. The status of the fight at present is that it is definitely off, but Rick ard intimated that other arrange men might be made to match some one with Delaney. Allentown Joe Gans is said to be under consideration for a return match with Delaney in the big city. AZEANIC CITY, N. J., Feb. 11—Pedro Campo, the brown fighter of Philadelphia defeated Johnny Moseley, Chester, Pa., race lightweight in the eight-round wind up of the Northside Club, Tuesday night Campo's aggressiveness 'won the fight for him. Associated Negro Press NEW YORK, N. Y., Feb. 11.—If Tom Gibbons ever faces the brown panther, better known as Harry Wills, he will be a tough opponent with a handicap. Trained to fighting shape, Wills would be some 35 pounds heavier and nearly six inches taller. Gibbons at 36 is three years older than Wills. In this respect Gibbons will hardly meet the boxer. Yet Gibbons wants to be heavy-fish champion, but he does not relish heavyweights. Heavyweights, Wills or Godfrey, who, outside of Dempsey, say the white sports wives are the outstanding figures among the heavyweight fighters. ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, FEB. 13, 1925 FLOWERS WHIPS MORE Associated Negro Press NEWARK, N. J., Feb. 11.—Tiger Flowers won his sixth fight of the year here Monday night, when he won easily over Ted Moore, the white fighter from Europe. In the Realm of Sports ports Walk best to for the pass the p BOHEMIA BOXING CARD The regular Battle Royal was the opener at Bohemia last Friday night. It furnished lots of fun as usual. The first bout was to be a 4 round event between Kid Fraction and Kid Patter. Kid Fraction K. O'D Patty in the third. The second bout was for 6 rounds between Jessie James and Sheenie Wilks. Jessie came out on top. Both of these boys are good. Kid Bolden won from Kid Williams in the 2nd, when Williams forgot to move his chin out of the path of one of Bolden's hard rights. The main event was an 8 round contest between Lawrence Hawkins and Indian Joe. This bout is always a good one. Hawkins had a slight edge at the finish. Joe is the only boy around here who can give Hawkins a real soft, but the fans do not appreciate him. AUTHORIZED' SALESMAN JOHN H. HARRIS Andrew Joplin has the distinction of being the only Negro authorized automobile salesman in this city. He is a regular salesman for the Carrombe Motor Company, 4800 South St., and specializes in selling Ford cars. Mr. Joplin has had quite a success as a salesman for this company because, he says, "I handle the popular cars." Every car sold by the Orchardtec Motor Company is entitled to free periodical service when the customer can have his car inspected, springs groomed, body tightened and general "going over" every month. He also owns the owner many hundreds of dollars. **Success and Appreciation** Mr. Joplin said, when asked to what he attributes his success: "Have you not noticed that progressive dominant nations are always appreciative people? They appreciate good things and therefore attain them." They appreciate the good in individuals and reward them proportionately with their reasons for my great faith in our people is that they are an appreciative people. "Now, I have been in the Ford business more than eight years, and no one denies that I know my business, but to know one's business thoroughly is only the beginning. To be a successful salesman means to accept definite responsibility to one's customers, and this is, by no means, a light or easy thing. Success requires willingness to take infinite pains, the careless selecting of a car, or its indifferent preparation may seem the easy and most expedient way, but it is disastrous to success. The job that just "gets by" is not the job that brings other customers. "Every customer of mine must be a satisfied customer. He must be happy with his purchase and continue to be so. It has been my experience, that the customer is the very best selling asset that a salesman can have. You have heard the saying, 'Every knock is a boost.' Well, I never think of a knock, because I have satisfied customers. "If you want to know the reason for my success, go out and ask my customers, any of them. You will find that they are satisfied and appreciative. Ask my Company. Have them show you some of the letters my customers have written expressing their satisfaction." When you wish to buy a Ford car, see dophin. It does not cost you any more, but helps him much. New or used cars. CHRISTIAN STUDENTS COOPERATE IN SOUTH HAMPTON, MA., Feb. 11—William C. Graeter, secretary of the international Y. M. A. A., recently spoke to the Hampton institute workers and students on "Ventures Made by Christian Students in the South." He referred to the four big questions which everywhere confront Christians students—war, race relationships, capital and labor, and democracy for students or the youth movement. He stated that students throughout the world are attempting to find their place in the world's work. He outlined the after-effects of the student convention at indianaapolis at which some $500 representatives from 600 college, including $80 colored students from 100 colleges, attended through rank discussion. He also claimed that would have them solve perplexing problems. He referred particularly to the later-racial co-operation of college students' in the South who have during the past year through forum discussion and helpful contacts, come to understand the problems which white and colored people everywhere face. The idol of today pushes the hero of yesterday out of our recollection, and will, in turn, be supplanted by his successor of tomorrow.

Preston News Service Now comes the dispatch that Jack Dempsey, with his revamped nose and wild, wide smile, has been vampied by a movie queen, and the little lady has decreed, as one of the ties in the knot that blinds, that her "daddy" will not fight anymore. So Dempsey releases a notice to the effect that his alliance with Jack the Kearns, one of the shrewdest and most alert managers any champion has ever had, will end on or about May 20. A publicable public has been fed and fed again, time and time again, laterly with special "press" releases concerning the various and varied activities of the champion who never fights, because, as he relates, "he has no fit opponent to meet." Wills, of course, means little or nothing to the "champ." First, he is a Negro; then he is a hitter, and then—well, those whom he might juggle by his absence. In the list, declare that he can certainly sock. But, gullible or not, if Dempsey does refuse, and friend reader, harden not to the sylphlike breezes waited down the trail of sport, to your ears he'll leave behind him a mark of disgrace; that other fighters, be they white or black, will boor at for years without hope of reaching.

If, perchance, he loses, then call the stage-help, draw the curtain, and mark his behind the name of Flowers. Flowers, in his recent fight with Delaney, was, in the opinion of most of the experts, overworked, or worked too hard on the eve of his most in- portant match. Take heed, Manager Walk, or you are going to send the best meal ticket you ever had, back to the land from which few return, for the sake of a few paltry dollars. An article deserving of more than passing comment, the following from the pen of Ira F. Lewis of The Pittsburgh Courier, has been reprinted here for the sake of the readers of "In the Realm of Sports." It is comprehensive, and causes us to pause and look at one of four most pertinent sight problems from a rather new and unique angle. The article follows: Shades c' Dixon, Alecott and Gans!

Such is the position of 90 per cent of colored fighters. Due in part to the fancied or real aspersions cast upon the boxing game, by the alleged public encapades of Jack Johnson and later by MKI, the colored boxer has had a hard row to hoe.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Feb. 11. Born in 1848, Mrs. Judie Dean of 1616 Hunter street, perhaps the oldest person in the United States, died here last week, at the age of 120 years. Her death resulted in an attack of asthma. Mrs. Dean was born of slave parents on 'the Dean plantation, in Greenwich, South Carolina. She was born to many of the plantation owners for many years, serving Dean family even after the emancipation proclamation. Her husband died before the Civil war. She lived on the plantation thru the most exciting and strenuous periods of our nation's history and is said to have seen several of our early Presidents. Of the American wars she missed but one, the Rovos-Apollonian War, through the War of 1812. Mexican War, Civil War, Spanish American and World War. She lived during the terms of 28 of America's 30 Presidents, missing only those of Washington and John Adams, and the first term of Jefferson. She saw the 17 states, which composed the country when she was born, grow to the United States, which we know today. Durham, N. C., State Normal Building Burns DURHAM, N. C. Feb 11—The dining room, kitchen and several class rooms of the Durham State Normal School were destroyed by fire last Wednesday evening. The flames which caused a loss of 25,000 began in the evening while the students were in the chapel attending evening services and although firemen arrived shortly after the alarm and the students joined the building was shortly after the building was shortly a mass of flames fanned furiously by the high wind. President James E. Shepherd is ar- PAGE SEVEN ranging for the students to take their meals in the community and is organizing the class work so that as little time will be lost as possible.
