He addressed himself to the jury, whom he told he would prove to them that whatever money investors lost in the Black Star Line he didn't get any of it, and that if anybody got it, it was E. Smith-Green, secretary, and George Tobias, treasurer, of the defunct Black Star Line Money came pouring into the Garvey office, Miss Ledeatt, secretary of the Universal Negro Improvement association, and at the time the Black Star Line was organized, a stenographer in Garvey's office. When the project was announced, his office had been before stock subscription started, "enthusiastic subscribers" rushed in to deposit their money with the Garvey office. Asked About $500 Check When it came to cross examination Maxwell S. Mattuck, Federal prosecutor, was most anxious to learn if Miss Leadett knew for what purpose a check for $500 to the order of Garvey was drawn on the steamship line on December 24, 1919. The records of the Black Star Line identified by the witness, showed that the check was drawn for the cheek govee exercise officer, Mr. Matuck brought out that a few days after the check was drawn, Garvey and his wife left on their honeymoon trip to Canada. Miss Davis Trapped Lady Henrietta Vinton Davis, Lady Commander of the Sublime Order of the Nile, and Lady of the Distinguished Service Order of Ethiopia was called by Marcus in his defense. Stock was sold for $19,000 on a trip to Panama in 1920, Miss Davis testified. Expenses of the trip, $12,000, were paid, Miss Davis said, out of the money from the sale of the stock. "When the boat reached Colon we were in need of money and I thought that, as second vice president, when the ship needed money in a foreign port, why, I could spend it," she declared. "You told these people who bought stock that you would spend the money for new ships, didn't you?" asked Mr. Mattuck. "I object," screamed Mr. Garvey. "That's a leading question." Judge Mack smiled rather wearily. "Of course, Mr. Garvey, but it perfectly all right to lead on cross-examination," he said, and then he added, "another little law lesson for you, Mr. Garvey." Miss Davis denied she had heard anything about the ghost ship "Phyllis Wheatley" until in 1922, but was forced on cross-examination to admit that she had heard of it as early as 1919. Miss Davis was caught another time when after having emphatically denied that she was ever on the payroll of the Black Star Line or ever received a cent of compensation from that concern she was confronted with a number of checks endorsed by her as the prosecutor flashed check after check that she had endorsed on her asking her if she recognized her signature on "this check, and this, and this, and this," until some forty checks had been flashed on the amazed lady who then admitted that these checks represented amounts paid her (Continued on page 2) SOM Arrives Home After Teaching In South Anna M.

SEVEN CANDIDATES FOR COLLEGE DEGREES Two Pharmacists and One Dentist in 1923 Class at State University By Mason W. Fields. On every hand we hear the gospel of "More education." The press is full of it. We get it in every sermon and most organizations advocate it. This may well be considered indicative of the realization of the great part education must play in building finer characters. The very obvious question which comes to our minds is, "What are our youths doing with the educational opportunities in our state university?" The answer is found in the fact that for the 10 years 2009 and 1918 they were enrolled in the University of Minnesota only 26 colored students, while the five years—1918 to 1923—there were enrolled 57 and of this number 38 were in school this year and four have their degrees, and are taking graduate work, a thing none of those of the preceding 10 years did. The colored students have always been active in every phase of university life—winning both athletic and scholastic honors. Aside from the participation of some of the colored students in a campus club, the colored students in the Omega Psi Phi organization in 1921 and Alma Phi Alpha, organized in 1912. The two fraternities are composed of representative men of the Twin Cities as well as young men from other cities. Both the Omegas and the Alphas have entertained the business and professional men of the Twin Cities at smokers. The Alphas have been actively promoting the Go to College movement which culminated May 27 in the awarding of a quarter's tuition to the winner of an essay contest for high school seniors. There are seven candidates for degrees at the June commencement: Bachelors of Arts, W. Donald Brown, Bella T. Taylor, Alfred J. Elkins and Roy Wilkins; Pharmaceutical Chemists, Frederick D. Inge and George W. King; Doctor of Dental Surgery, Howard B. Shepard. Alfred Elkins, who receives his A. B. is the first colored student to major in biology at the University of Minnesota. He is a native of Columbia, S. C., and has completed work at Georgia State Industrial college and Atlanta university. He will continue in medicine at the Uni- (Continued on page 2) THE APPEAL. Anna M. Arnold, Hamline. "U" Graduate, Returns Home for Summer After a Year of Teaching in Rust College, In Mississippi That work in the schools of the South offer the greatest opportunity for the trained colored graduate of the Northern colleges to serve his race was the opinion expressed by Anna M. Arnold, who returned to her home in Anoka last Sunday after a year of teaching in Rust College at Holly Springs, Mississippi. Miss Arnold is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Arnold, of Anoka. "I know that it has been said many times before, but I did not realize until I went down there to work how true it was," said Miss Arnold. "There is a great work waiting for more and better trained hands to do it. In some of my classes I had students who would compare favorably with white students in Minnesota's high schools and colleges. With the proper equipment and more workers they could be made the equis of any students in the country." Rust college, which is a Methodist school, has an enrollment of 500 students principally from Mississippi. At commencement exercises last month, 85 students were graduated from the various branches—five receiving B. A. degrees. Miss Arnold graduated from Hamline university last June. While at Rust she taught all branches of history as well as high school rhetoric. She plans to return in the fall. ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA SORORITY AT "U" Chapter of National Organization Maintained by Colored Girls on Campus By Bella T. Taylor. Fifteen years ago, in January, 1908, a group of women at Howard university feeling keenly the increasing complexity of women's problems and especially those of colored women, decided to form an organization for the purpose of studying and solving such problems in order that they might successfully take their places in the vanguard of civilization. It was decided to make the organization a Greek letter one and to restrict membership to college women of high scholastic and moral standards who are pursuing or have completed a college course of not less than four years. This was the inception of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority, which is now the oldest, strongest and largest colored sorority in existence. Soon chapters were formed at some of the largest universities. In 1911 sorority became a nationally affiliated organization. At present there are many chapters established, extending from Washington, D. C., to California. It was not until September, 1922, that there were enough women students enrolled at the University of Minnesota to form a local chapter of the sorority. In December, 1922, Mrs. Lorraine Greene, national basleus of the organization, set up the local organization as Eta chapter. The first officers and charter members of the chapter are Bella T. Taylor, president; Frances R. Smith, vice president; Kathryn B. Tandy, secretary; Rachel Gooden, treasurer, and Antoinette McFarland, historian. Recently Audra Truehart and Blanche Arnold were pledged. At the National Boule, held in Kansas City during the Christmas holidays, the chapter was represented by Bella T. Taylor. It is the especial aim of Eta chapter to improve the social status of the race and increase educational efficiency by promoting the Go to College movement and to encourage the maintaining of high scholastic and moral standards among college students. CANDIDATES FOR SENATE SPEAK OUT ON DYER MEASURE Francis C. Cary and Governor Preus Issue Signed Statements on Bill ONE DEMOCRAT FOR BILL Other Candidates Declare Themselves In Favor of Such Legislation Candidates for the nomination for senator to fill the unexpired term of the late Senator Knute Nelson issued last minute statements to voters on their stands on various questions last night and today. Of especial interest to colored voters are the statements of some of the candidates on the Dyer anti-lynching bill. Ernest C. Lundeen, candidate for the Republican nomination, in a statement issued Thursday, declared himself in favor of a Federal measure to check lynching and said that if he was nominated and elected he would not only support the Dyer bill, but would work for it in the Senate. Thos. D. Schall is content to stand on his record, according to his managers. Mr. Schall was on the Rules committee of the House which reported the Dyer bill to that body, "Tom Schall always has been a friend of the colored man," his headquarters said yesterday, "and he believes that they will stand by him now." Although former Governor Burnquist has issued no statement specifically referring to the Dyer bill, it is believed that his record as a governor and as president of the St. Paul branch of the N. A. A. C. P. will erase any doubts as to his stand on the bill. Judge Hallam has issued no form- Judge Italian has issued (Continued on page 2) Completes Course In Social Service Work At State University THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK Bella T. Taylor, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas R. C. Taylor, 925 E. Magnolia street, is the first colored woman to graduate from Minnesota in four years. Miss Taylor has maintained a high record of scholarship throughout her elementary, secondary and college training. She was an honor graduate of Johnson high school in the class of 1918. While at the university she attended a department of sociology, in which she majored, and has received offers of positions from white social service organizations. She is a member of Le Cercle Francais, a French club on the campus, and the president of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority. Deceased Held Offices in State and National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs; is Survived by Five Sons and Grandchildren. Mrs. Ione E.

Mrs. Gibbs, until a few years ago, had been prominent in church and club work in Minneapolis and the state since 1890. Upon coming to Minneapolis as a bride of Jasper Gibbs in 1890, she became actively engaged in church club work at Bethesda Baptist church which her husband organized. She was instrumental in the church clubs joining the state federation of colored women's clubs, and later of the state federation joining the national federation. She held the presidency of the state federation for several terms and was also an executive of the national federation. Mrs. Gibbs, who had just returned from Boston, had just passed her 55th birthday. She was born in Burlington, N. J., where she received her early schooling. She attended and was graduated from a university in Louisville, Ky., which has since been moved to Pane Springs, Ky., and is now known as Extine Norton. For a number of years she taught Greek and German at her alma mater. In 1890 she married Jasper Gibbs and came directly to Minneapolis where Mr. Gibbs had an established business. Up until her death she was a partner and the guiding spirit in the laundry company owned by herself and her five sons.

MACALESTER AND HAMLINE POPULAR MACALESTER AND HAMLINE POPULAR Eleven Students Attend Church Schools Located In St. Paul By Walter J. Minor. Hamline and Macalester seem to be popular schools of this kind in St. Paul. Both schools have an enrollment of from 500-600 students. This year closes with seven regular students of our race in attendance, in both colleges. The alumni of these two schools have done creditable work, especially that done by Anna M. Arnold of Hamline, and Catherine Lealtad and James K. Hilyard of Macalester. Miss Arnold, who received her degree last year, is teaching. Miss Lealtad is doing experimental work in chemistry in New York; Mr. Hilyard, who also is a graduate chemist, is teaching. Mention must also be made of the two athletes that these two colleges have produced. Sam Stephens has done exceptional work in track and ball. Hamline, while Peavey Johnson has done equally as well in football for Macalester. Regular students include at Macalester, Peavey S. Johnson, Elizabeth Murray, Mattie Murray, Verne Thomas and Walter Minor; at Hamline, Sam Stephens and Henri Mac Simmons. Besides those in regular attendance there are four students of music at the Macalester conservatory. Mrs. Ione E. Gibbs, who in the past has been prominent in women's club work in the state and nation, died at her home in Minneapolis June 9. SIXTEEN STUDENTS WIN HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMAS SIXTEEN STUDENTS WIN HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMAS Fifteen From Twin Cities and One From Anoka Make Up Roster Twin City high schools in the past scholastic year have graduated 15 colored students 4 at mid-year commencements and 11 at June exercises this month. In addition to these William J. Arnold, Jr., was graduated from the Anoka high school, June 1. Not a few of the graduates have made notable records in scholarship or some branch of school activity. At Mechanic Arts high school there were five students in the class. They are Thelma C. Williams, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. S. W. Williams, 318 N. Grotte; Beatrice Magen; Diane Dodge, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Douglas, Larpentur and Dunlair avenues; William Riley; Earl Wilkins, nephew of Mr. and Mrs. S. S. Williams, 906 Gauier street. Thelma Williams plans to continue her studies in music in the fall. William Riley, although fully grown, intends to continue his education. Earl Wilkins is the only colored student in the Twin City high schools to make the honor roll of his class. He was fifteenth in a class of 167. In his freshman year Mr. Wilkins was secretary of his class. He was a department editor of the school magazine, figured in the chorus of an operetta, and won a letter in track in his junior year. In his last year he was for a time the associate editor of the school magazine and a member of the golf team. He plans to attend the university in the fall. From Central high, St. Paul, there were two graduates, Elizabeth Johnson and John Lawrence. Miss Johnson came within a hairs breadth of making the honor roll. John Lawrence won the tuition prize recently by the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity. Three students are finishing from Central high, Minneapolis: Lucille Morrow, Alvai Williams and George Banks. Miss Morrow won a prize at an essay contest at the school with an essay on "Negro poets," and Mr. Banks is a radio expert. Marguerite Seymour is a graduate of the Vocational high school and Ernest Parker, from South high school. William J. Arnold, Jr., is the fourth member of the family of W. J.

The case was tried before Judge Bechhoefer. Attorney J. Louis Ervin appeared for the plaintiff and Attorneys W. T. Francis and Donahue for the defendants. Testimony given by Rev. Harris on the stand Tuesday did anything but help his case along. The witness was frequently reprimanded by the judge for interjecting his own opinions instead of answering the questions put by the attorneys. Rev. Harris appeared somewhat uncertain upon the payments made him by the church to October, 1922. Attorney Donahue examined him on this point. Denies Payment. Q.

OUR GRADUATES Upon the graduates of color rests a peculiar responsibility not visited upon their white fellows. Like the whites they face the problem of making a living and becoming "a success"—whatever that is; but in addition they have the responsibility of lifting a race. How are our homes to catch and preserve ideals if not through intelligent, high principled mothers, the products of our secondary schools and colleges? How are our battles for manhood rights to be fought if not by men of intelligence and discernment, moved by a hunger for the justice that they have learned of in books? Race prejudice and the idea that black means either evil or clownish or both will never be erased by ignorant men, no matter how well meaning they be. Respect for the race is built of a record of intelligent deeds. To be sure education is not all, but more and more in this later world it is getting to be very nearly all. And so to the graduates of Twin City schools and colleges together with the hundreds of their brothers over country we look for newer, higher, better race standards, a finer idealism, and a greater manhood. EVIL SPIRITS [The Chicago Whip] Hampton institute, another "educate the hand" school, is beginning to be shown up in its true colors. We contend that any force which causes a limitation upon opportunities for the black people to get higher education is a menace to the welfare of these people and should be regarded as such. For these reasons we feel, along with DuBois and Trotter, that Tuskegee and Hampton are retarding the progress of the black people in this country and that we should recognize them as doing such. Tuskegee has now established a Jim Crow hospital in Tuskegee and a Jim Crow system in that hospital, and now it leaks out that Hampton is Jim Crowing its black treasurer by forcing him to live in a tumble-down shack while the white teachers and professors are provided with palatial residences. Robert Russia, president of Tuskegee, is a product of Hampton, and any child can see why his vision is refracted along the Hamptonian lines. Tuskegee and Hampton are eav spirits. They stand between the black people and the sunlight; they dwarf ambitions, crush out pride; they misrepresent us to the white world, and they leave us at the mercy of a system of economics and politics which will keep us marking time for the next few centuries. It would be icqoelastic and vandalistic to cast aspersions upon these institutions and their sponsors if they were engaged in elevating our people, but they are not. They are evil spirits, and they and their sponsors menace our cause. By E. S. WEBER, D. D. S. Any questions regarding subjects in these articles or other dental work should be addressed to the Health Editor of the Appeal. Dr. Weber will publish the answers each week in this column. THE PURPOSE OF MY ARTICLES To date I have written several articles on some of the important subjects the dental surgeon has to deal with. Why do you suppose I have written these articles? Because I do the prescriptions are trying to teach the people how to prevent disease rather than cure disease. My friends, more harm has been done to humanity through ignorance and neglect than any other factors in life. I have taken up the responsibility their mouth and teeth more than other portion of the body. Hence I have taken upon myself to warn you and show the evils and dangers of neglect by pointing out the diseases of the mouth and teeth and telling you of the importance. I hope my articles have been a benefit to my readers. It is easier to do the right thing than it is to right the wrong thing. Keep that in mind always regardless of the situation. Next week I will begin a series of articles on such subjects as Stomatitis, Angina, Tumors, etc. Q. Does tobacco harm the teeth? Mr. A. J. W. A. No. I really believe it preserves the teeth. Q. At what age should children be brought in for dental work? Mrs. A. M. A. From the age of four years, at that in some children small cavities begin to develop. Q. How often should one have their teeth cleaned? Miss B. J. H. A. Some people should have their teeth cleaned more often than others. That depends upon the condition of their mouths. Porphyric patients should visit a dentist often (the dentist should inform the patient). But as a rule about twice a year is sufficient. Q. Which do you consider the best, bridge work or plate work? Mrs. I. G. A. There is a place for both. It depends upon the condition of the patient's mouth. The Colored Church · BY WILLIAM H. GASTON. "I belong to the great church that holds the world within its starlit isles; that claims the great and good in every race and clime; that finds with joy the gram of gold in every creed, and floods with light and love the germs of good in every soul." The colored church came into existence through the Unbrotheriness of Brother John. The white masters could not utter the word bounded devotion, or sing praises to the Redeemer of men in the company of their colored slaves. In the presence of those whose backs were being scarred by the masters' whips the notes of the Godly songs could not rise above the clouds. The press of those people were a standing reproach to the civilization and humanity that existed at the organization of the earlier colored churches of this country. As the different hues and shades all form one race, so the different denominational branches are all one church. The hues and color of the skin they are linked and tied by the same blood. The spirit of slavery having crushed out the feelings of "the brotherhood of man among the leading church communicants, the colored brothers must offer their priests to in the church. In 1773 the first colored church in this country was organized in the state of Georgia at Silver Bluff across the Savannah river from Augusta. This was Baptist. Organizations were mostly Baptist and were formed in Georgia, Kentucky and Virginia. In the years 1791 to 1914 the organization, purchase of ground, and the building of the first African Methodist Episcopal church took place in Lonhardph, Pa., on Sixth and Lonhardph, streets The first African church in New England was organized in Boston in 1805. In 1807 an African Presbyterian church was organized in Philadelphia. In 1811 the church was passed in the state of Mississippi making it unlawful for any Negro free or slave or mulatto to preach the "Gospel" upon pain of receiving thirty-nine lashes upon the naked and the colored Congregational church was organized. During the uncertainty of colonial days, the turmoil of the Revolutionary War, the Mexican War, the barbarism of slavery, the War of Secession, the Reconstruction Period on which present time the colored church has come. Many brilliant lights blazed forth from these mottled congregations. While in many instances they could not be outspoken, yet down deep into their souls burned, "My people must be free. Thou must let my people go. Natural eloquence, imbued from low to strong, gave tongues of fire to these stories of the town. With fear, fervor and often with natural grace they spoke. Not with a voice from colleges and schools; but with that voice that nature gives to the suffering and oppressed. Yet among this number some were considered learned. Services often were conducted among these lowly people, when to meet them to reach to them, was considered, crutinous and teaching them was a violation of the law subjected to severe punishment. The colored church before the Civil War, through those dark days of slavery was a beacon light; during the days of Reconstruction it was a rallying point. Now slowly but surely the colored church is, falling back, larging behind the needs of the present day. We must therefore review her virtues, correct her faults, pave the way for a beneficial future. (This is the first of a series of articles on the colored church by William H. Gaston. Others will appear in early issues.) Five Girls Enrolled At "U" Farm School By Beulas V.

OMEGA PSI PHI NEWEST FRATERNITY ON CAMPUS Local Chapter of Greek Letter Society Formed at Minnesota in 1921 By Brooker W. Harris The Omega Psi Phi Fraternity was organized in 1911 at Howard university. It began with a nucleus of three men, together with Dr. Edward E. Just, now professor of anatomy. The Omega Psi Phi is a national organization incorporated under the law of the District of Columbia. There are, now, twenty-four chapters scattered throughout the country Among the chapters at the leading schools of the country are those at Howard university, Meharry Medical college, Columbia and New York universities, University of Michigan, University of Pittsburgh, Tufts Medical College, Boston University, Harvard and Yale universities. Many of these chapters have in recent years obtained official recognition from their respective schools. On May 8, 1922, a group of college men from the University of Minnesota met in St. Paul to swear allegiance to the Omega Psi Phi fraternity. Nine initiates were installed by Dr. L. Raymond Hill, one time national officer of the fraternity. It was thirteen the united efforts of Brother Hill of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity,ELLinger of Harvard college the fraternity was made possible at Minnesota. The charter members are: George King, F. D. Inge, Hutchins Inge, Theodore Inge, Robert Harris, Albert Browne, Robert Harris, Wilkins, Earle Kyle, Immediate effect of establishment of the chapter negotiations were began with the proper authorities for official recognition by the University of Minnesota. May Been Edward E. Nicholson acting for the Society of student students, approved of the organization of a local chapter of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity. We considered this as our first great victory, as this marked the first time in history that a college student of Minnesota that a colored organization had received official recognition. In October, 1921 some of the brothers conceived the idea of meeting and entertaining the men of color from other schools, who from time to time attended various athletic feats on Northrup field. On "home-coming day" the Minnesota-Iowa game was played. We entertained "Duke" Slater, Iowa's tackler, at a smoker. For the game, we played inials in both St. Paul and Minnesota in memory of our brother, Colone Chas. Young. Last year the Minnesota Gopher, the University of the whole fraternal organization, took the history of the publication that a colorful organization has been represented. Although our efforts have been more or less concentrated on University activities and studies, we have found time to break the monotony of school affairs with socials, such as smokers, the police, the Pas. and pin played Emperor Jones of the Twin Cities, we entertained Brother Shields of Phi, Michigan, a member of that company, at a banquet in the Minnesota Union. Saturday, April 28, 1923 we gave our first spring dance and from the consensus of opinion it was an overwhelming success. "His greatest asset is men, good men, men and men," Brother Wilkins drive at the University three of our brothers were among the 1500 who took active part in the drive: they were Brothers Theodore Inge, Earle Kyle and Roy Wilkins. Brother Wilkins was captain of a team. The fraternity men pledged themselves one hundred per cent, not one man pledging one hundred per cent.

First Colored Student Active On Newspaper Graduates From "U" M. By Reginald A. Johnson Among the prominent young people who are to be graduated from the University of Minnesota this June is Roy Wilkins. In 1922 Mr. Wilkins entered the university's annual Pillsbury Oratorical contest and won the third prize with his oration on "Democracy or Demonocracy." He also entered the 1923 contest. Besides being an orator of no mean ability, Mr. Wilkins has been prominent as a journalist for several years. When in high school, he was editor-in-chief of the "M," the official magazine of Mechanic Arts high school. For the past three years, he has been a reporter, an intercollegiate editor and night editor of a station on the staff of the Minnesota Daily, a newspaper that is edited and managed entirely by the university students. Mr. Wilkins is the only colored student to ever be a member of the Daily staff and to do intensive research on the subject of journalism. In addition to his journalistic work at the university, he has been, for the past six months managing editor of The Appeal. Mr. Wilkins has also done commendable work as a member of the university branch of the Young Men's Club, a coeducation and the XI chapter of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity. He is completing his second year as general superintendent of the St James A. M. E. Sunday school and has done much to make the Twin City Sunday School Union a successful and helpful organization. He is a nephew of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel S. Williams, 906 Gaukert St Sixteen Students Win High School Diplomas Sixteen Students Win High School Diplomas (Continued from page 1) Blanche and Grayce preceded him in the order named. While in high school, "Bill" Arnold overthrew the tradition that an athlete cannot be a scholar by winning letters in footwear, but chosen school orator for two years and editing a daily paper issued by the senior English department. In the capacity of school orator he represented Anoka high school at the orational contest. In addition to the artistic contest, he was one of the school orchestra for three years.

COLORED ATHLETES ON SCHOOL TEAMS OF CITY In the building up of the athletic reputations of the various Twin City high schools and colleges, colored jerseys have had no little or insignificant share. They have starred in all branches of sport from football to golf. In 1903, "Bob" Marshall, on the football team of the University of Minnesota, was rated as one of the best players in the country. He was given that position by the All-American by Walter Camp. Lloyd Hickman was one of the two colored men who ever played football with the school team of Central High School. The quarterback position on the Mechanic Arts-high school team was held by Douglas Crane for two consecutive years—1912 and 1913. Mr. Crane was also a valuable weight holder the track team while at Mechanics. He played at Macalester college Crane played quarterback for the college team. One of the greatest high school athletes of the Twin Cities was Steve Hopkins. He played back on the Mackinaw. He played '18 and '14. One year he was rated back on an all-star Minnesota high school team. Also Hopkins was on the track team in the weight division while at Mechanics. He was tracable Minneapolis athlete Don Tawney is prominent. At Central in 1918 he won a letter in track for pole vaulting and another for high scholarship. Donald Brown also won a letter in swimming in his freshman year at the University. He Johnson, a graduate of Central high St. Paul, was able record. He is the other of the two colored men who ever played football with/a team at Central. In 1918 and 1919 he played right tackle on the squad and in 1918 he made the all-star city team. After leaving high school Johnson played a year of college football at Macalester. Walter Chesnutwil who died recently was one of the best colored track men the city has ever seen. He was the leading star of the Mechanic Arts track in 1919 and he specialized in the dashes and low hurdles. In 1920 he took second place in the 220-yard low hurdles at the Northwestern meet held annually in Minnesota. In both 1919 and 1920 he was a high school 100-ward man in St. Paul. It is safe to state that no colored athlete in the whole state owns more letters, medals, and points, than does versatile Sam Stephens who is finishing his second year at Hamline university. In 1920 he机械艺 Arts. In 1920 and 1921 Stephens played high school baseball each year pitching his nine to championship; in 1921 he played football at Mechanics, and in the same year, class basketball. At Hamline he has played for four college team both in 1922 and 1923, track days—1921—Staphens took a first place in the annual Carleton meet in the 100-yard dash. In 1922 he took a second place in the 100-yard dash at the Midwest track meet comprising representatives of three surrounding states. In 1922 Stephens was event in which he was entered and in that year alone four medals. He has a total of seven letters. Bury Carmichael who finished from South high, Minneapolis, in 1922, was a track man and earned a letter in the 1923 season. Walter Minor was a promising half-miler on the Mechanic Arts track squad in 1922. In his third year at Mechanic Main played basketball with a class team. He graduated from high school in '22¹. In 1922 Earl Wilkins was a dash and hurdle man on the track team of Mechanic Arts high. He won a prize. In 1923 Wilkins played with the new "sported" golf team at Mechanics and on several occasions acted as its manager. Charles Banks of Central high, Minneapolis, held a berth on the baseball team of that school during the season of 1923. Albert M. Butler, now in the college of dentistry at the University of Minnesota, played football on the team. Superior high school, and also on the team of Superior normal school. Second Colored Student To Receive Degree In Dentistry At Minnesota Howard B. Shepard, D. D. S. The distinction of being the second colored graduate from the college of dentistry at the University of Minnesota goes to Howard B. Shepard, who graduated from the college of Shepard 1420 Northern Court, Madison, WI. His distinction is more than ever to be envisioned since the college of dentistry at the university is the highest ranking college of dentistry in the country. Such is the report of an investigating commission which inspected the college last spring. During his college career, Mr. Shepard served as freshman representative to the commission as senior adviser to freshman students. He was a member of the university band for three years as a drummer. Mr. Shepard, who is a member of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity, plans to locate in Minneapolis. Mr. Shepard worked his way through the university by organizing a gigging a number of dance orchestras and united university functions. At one time he had 75 student musicians and overtown musicians on his payroll. One whole band his orchestra played at the Del Otelo hotel at Spring Park, Minnetonka. Court Throws Out Pastor's Case; Loses Salary Suit (Continued from page 1) pay on your car? pay on your car? A. No sir. Q. You never borowed any money from the church to pay on your car? A. No sir. Rev. T. J. Carr, former pastor of the church, was called by the plains attorney in an effort to establish under which the church was governed at the time of Rev. Harris' pastorate. He testified that a manual was adopted by the congregation in May, 1921, but said he could not remember in what part of the month it was done, even though he admitted that only one business need at a church was held in a month and that at the first Friday. Lee Coleman was called by the plaintiff. Q. You were present at the meeting when Rev. Harris was called as the pastor? A. No. Q. What took place with reference to the employing of Rev. Harris? A. About salary? Q. About everything. A. We agreed upon $40 a week. Q. Then what? A. It was put before the congregation and ratified. Several times the witnesses, especially Rev. Harris, had to be reminded that they were under oath and that the trial was a serious matter. The plaintiff rested his case at 2 P.M. Tuesday and the defense attorney, W. Francis, made a move for dismissal made the testimony of Rev. Harris was obviously a collection of contradictions and false statements. Rev. Harris left the court rooms vowing to on fight the case if it took ten years and six lawyers. A little of the credit for winning the case should go to Attorney Francis for it, because his suggestions that Mr. Donahue blocked the testimony of the plaintiff at critical points. Garvey Attempts To Place Blame On Associates (Continued from page 1) by the Black Star Line for her work in selling stock to the public. "Duchess" Bruce Frightened. Lady Florence Bruce, Duchess of Uganda (Connell Africa), by reason of rank conferred in the Sublime Order of the Nile and special gift of the "Dukedom of Uganda," sweltered through an unnapy half hour as a witness for Marmar Garvey. She was forced to admit that name had been on the Black Star pay line, she a duchess of mighty Uganda, and grading herself in clerical work for the Negro World. Garvey set up a mighty "holler" by Florence gave this testimony under examination by Maxwell S. Mattuck. The "duchess" became so confused and frightened that Judge Mack conducted the examination himself. She told him that during the first year she worked in Garvey's office, opening mail, the Negro World's payroll and afterwards was paid by the U. N. I. A. Garvey has to be warned several times to keep to the point, and Judge Mumally told him, when he persisted in asking questions despite sustained objections by the prosecutor: "Mr. Garvey, the patience of this court is to reach a limit, and I am sure the results will be serious. There are no guarantees that even a defendant conducting his own defense may not go, and a further continuation after repeated warnings I have given will mean a termination of the case through your own actions." Both the state and the defendant have agreed to wind up the case by June 14. WEEK'S RECORD OF HAPPENINGS IN MINNESOTA'S CAPITAL.

C.-Belize, which officially is British Honduras, has a revolution, according to press dispatches. To those who know Belize this is like the report of a volcanic eruption in New York or a blizzard in Death Valley. A bulletin from the Washington, D. C., headquarters of the National Geographic society tells why. "Set down in the midst of a group of republics in which revolutions have been at least not infrequent for the century of their existence," says the bulletin, "Belize's bld to fame has been that it was 100 per cent revolutionless. Although it is one of the least known and most neglected patches of the British empire, still British law and order hovered over it, and it has been to a certain extent, like the Dutch West Indian colony of Oruacau, an asylum for alien leaders who were more revolutionary than successful. "The country's 45,000 inhabitants include probably less than 1,000 whites. The remainder of the population is made up of negroes and mulattos and Spanish Indians, the latter living chiefly in the back country. But in the capital, Belizo, throughout the whole coast country, and wherever governmental machinery has been set up, the atmosphere, whether it be made up of business, government, or sport, is unmistakably British. "Few concessions have been made to the climate. The two and three-story houses that line the main residence street of Belizo are of accepted British architecture. Geographic Names Tell Story. "Geographic names tell of the sudden transition from the lands of Spanish culture to this little patch of the Spanish Main that has been Anglicized. One leaves Puerto Cortex, Honduras, or Puerto Barrios, Guatemala, to sail a few miles farther on past the Coxcomb mountains, All Pines, and Stam creek. Inland are Middlesex and Orange Walk. Belline is one of the few exceptions, and even that is said to be a corruption of the surname of an early Scotch settler, Wallis. "British Honduras, a trifle larger than Massachusetts or New Jersey, is wedged in between the Mexican states of the Yucatan peninsula on the north and Guatemala on the west and south, while Honduras, Nicaragua, Salvador, and Costa Rica are nearby. "The mahogany industry is justly commemorated on the flag of British Honduras by the representation there of the tools of the trade. Mahogany lured early settlers to Belize; put money in their purses; furnished something for them and their backer, Great Britain, to fight the Spaniards about; and has ben chiefly responsible for the land's main industry, lumbering. "British Honduras-came under the British flag largely through the well-known 'quatters' right," grown to international stature; Spain claimed the entire 'Main,' or mainland, from the time of the earliest explorers. But she was interested chiefly in gold and silver; mere trees seemed beneath notice. So British and other adventurers who cut timber on the eastern coast of Yucatan, the present British Honduras, and the mosquito country, farther south, were not molested at first. "When the settlers were seen to be making a good thing of their mahuogany trade, the Spanish changed their policy and began harassing them. A series of wars and treaties between Spain and Great Britain followed. In 1798 the Spanish made a supreme effort to drive what they considered the 'squatters' out of Belize. But the settlers, with a cannon mounted on rafts and flat-boats, had the best of the strategic situation and won a signal victory. From that time the British claim to the territory rested on conquest as well as settlement. Keeps American Jaws Busey. Keeps American Jaws Busy. "Belize, like the other countries along the east side of Central America, has a low-lying region along the coast with highlands farther inland. Its dense tropical forests have discouraged agriculture. Growth is so rapid that it is a task of the utmost difficulty to keep trails open. Most travel is along rivers, and little is known of the interior away from the streams. The one important exception is the southern region tapped by the only railroad, along which thousands of acres of banana plantations have been established to supply a part of the market in the United States. Down the rivers millions of dollars' worth of mahogany and logwood have been floated during the life of the colony. In late years tens of thousands of bales of chicle, the raw material of chewing-gum, have joined the stream, to be shipped north to keep busy the restless jaws of America. 'For this outflow to America there is an inflow not wholly confined to money and goods. Some British leaders complain that the colony is becoming 'Americanized.' Newspapers and magazines from the United States far outnumber those from England. American agents gain much business in competition with the more leisurely methods of the British; and a number of representatives of the younger generation, going to America for their higher education, tend on their return to look to America for their intellectual leadership.
