Decision of Court Arouses Tax Payers John Wesley Church, Monday Eve., April 16, 1923 First in Local Circulation. Decis However,Emmett Scott Moves In Despite Curtis Case Decision The Court of Appeals Will Be Asked to Pass on McCoy's Ruling Chief Justice McCoy of the District Supreme Court on Thursday of this week upheld an agreement made by a number of persons owning property, in the seventeen hundred block of S Street in which agreement these owners had agreed not to sell their property to any person of color. The decision was the result of an injunction brought by one of the owners, John J. Buckley, against another owner and party to the agreement, Irene H. Corrigan, to prevent Irene Corrigan from selling her property to Mrs. Helen Curtis, wife of Dr. Arthur Curtis, one of our physicians. Mrs. Curtis was made a party defendant to this suit by reason of being the intending purchaser; but just why she alone defended the suit it has not been learned. The defendant, Mrs. Curtis has been allowed ten days in which to answer this suit and to answer the contention of the party attempting to prevent the sale, the case not having been decided on its merits, but on a demurrur filed by the defendant's lawyer. It has been stated by James A. Cebb, attorney for Mrs. Curtis that the case will be fought thru all the courts of the land unless the next decision of the court, after he has been heard on the merits of the case, is favorable to Mrs. Curtis. Mr. Scott Buys in the Block Mr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University recently purchased a house in this block at 1711 S Street, and it is learned that, upon being advised that a similar action to enjoin him from purchasing and to enjoin the seller from making the sale to him was to be attempted, made a quick deal by purchasing and moving into the premises on Thursday of this week before any legal action could be had against him or the seller. It will be interesting now to see just what steps the parties to this discriminating agreement will take to oust Scott or how they will proceed against the owner who sold to him. Both Mrs. Curtis and Dr. Scott should be commended for their stand in the matter of protecting their rights as both are American citizens and tax payers in this city. These cases should be and are of vital interest to our group, and are being watched with a deal of interest. We hold that we are entitled to live anywhere in the United States that we feel disposed to purchase property. These cases are the outgrowth of a seeming determination on the part of a race hating group of poor white people to keep our people from enjoying life and liberty in this city, the capital of the nation. LARGE CROWD EXPECTED TO ATTEND PARENTS' LEAGUE MEETING Much interest has been aroused over the meeting of the Parents League next Monday night at New Bethel Baptist, corner of 9th and S Streets, N. W. As announced last week the League will discuss the action of a local minister who it is claimed is trying to revive the dead issues of the school fight. A large crowd is expected to attend this meeting. N.A.A.C.H John Wesley Ch The Washington Tribune ion of WINNERS IN THE CAKE BAKING CONTEST The Tribune's big Cake Contest closed Thursday.

GETS PATENT ON NEW ELECTRIC LIGHT BULB Inventor Also Has Several Other Valuable Patents To His Credit The Patent Office this week granted a patent to George Washington Turner for an improvement in incandescent electric lamps. Mr. Turner's patent if commercialized, will revolutionize the manufacture of incandescent lamps. Mr. Turner has perfected an improvement whereby the glass bulb can be used until broken. The metal top of the bulb is so made that it can be screwed off from the bulb and new wires can be put in whenever they burn out. As it is now, the bulb is no good when the wires burn out, so by this new invention the only cost will be the inserting of more wires, which can be done at a very small cost. Just what disposition Mr. Turner will make of this patent is not known as yet. Mr. Turner is the inventor of several mechanical improvements among which is an automatic fan that winds up like a clock and runs from a spring instead of electric current. COUNCIL UPHOLDS DISMISSAL OF GEO. PARKER Before the delegates of twenty-seven Baptist Churches, assembled in an ex-parte council, at Shiloh Baptist Church, Wednesday afternoon, Geo. A. Parker labored for three hours trying to convince the Council that he should not have been excommunicated from the First Baptist Church of Georgetown, of which Rev. Jas. L. Pinn is pastor. The Council adopted a resolution stating that the First Baptist Church had acted hastily in excommunicating the said George A. Parker, and recommended that Mr. Parker make application for restoration into the First Baptist Church and if not given satisfaction, he could join any ther Baptist Church of his choice without a letter from the First Baptist Church of Georgetown. The sitting of the council attracted a large audience of ministers and laymen. Rev. E. E. Ricks of Newark, N. J., was here and it developed during the hearing that the Rev. George A. Parker had been turned out of First Baptist on three occasions, one of which was during the pastorate of Rev. Ricks. But when the moderator, Dr. M. D. W. Norman, asked Rev. Ricks if the hand of fellowship had been withdrawn from Rev. Parker during his pastorate of this church, he said "No." Whereupon, the records of the church meeting of Sep- (Continued on page 8) P. The Amphibian church, Monday Even Amphion today Eve., Will Carry its Doctrines to Every School and City in the Country The first conference of the American Federation of Negro Students convened at Howard University, April 6th, and 7th, both dates inclusive. This organization grew out of a meeting held last summer in Atlanthe City, New Jersey. It was composed of students attending Oberlin, Yale, Howard, Cornell, Lincoln, Tuskegee, Dowington, Montclair Normal School, Atlantic City High School and ohters. This meeting authorized an Executive Committee to place before the thinking Negro students of America, five vital questions: the promotion of cooperation, the stimulation of race pride, the encouragement of education, the increasing of race culture, and an intelligent consideration of the race problem. The Executive Committee composed of seven students from Lincoln University, with the slogan: "A More Progressive People," called upon the students of high schools, colleges, and universities and their equivalents to unite in a conference composed of delegates from the various institutions. The business of the first conference was the drafting of a constructive program for the ensuing year. The first meeting of the conference was called to order Friday morning April 6th, at 9 o'clock, in the Moorland Room of the Carnegie Library at Howard University. Temporary officers consisting of one student each from Lincoln University, Howard, and Swift's Memorial College, Tennessee, were elected to conduct the conference. Committees were elected to record the findings of the conference, and to suggest remedies for the defects which were found by the conference to exist among the Negro race. During the course of the first session, Dr. E. L. Parks, Dean of men at Howard University; and Dr. A. Leroy Locke, of the Department of Philosophy; Miss Lucy D. Slowe, Dean of women, and Mr. Wm. B. West, Executive Secretary Y. M. C. A., addressed the students and expressed hopes and beliefs for the great future of the student movement. Open Session The meeting adjourned at 12 o'clock to engage in a special chapel service in an open session with the students of Howard University. Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, President of the university, welcomed the students to Howard. Mr. D. Ward Nichols, President Student Council, assumed charge of the chapel service, presenting the founder of the organization in an explanation of the purpose of the student conference. An important resolution to which the student organization stands pledged, is the teaching of Negro History in colored high schools, colleges and universities throughout the country. WASHINGTON, D. C.

Women from Various Colleges Met Here Last Week To Map Out Program A conference of women graduates of twenty different colleges was held at the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A., Washington, D. C., on Friday and Saturday, April 6 and 7. The conference was called by the College Alumnae Club of Washington, Mrs. Lula Messer Holmes, president, for the purpose of forming a National Association of Colored College Women for the promotion of education among Colored women in particular. A temporary organization was formed with the following officers: president—Lucy D. Slowe, Dean of Women at Howard University; vicepresidents—Lillian Alexander, University of Minnesota; Myrtle Johnson, Western Reserve University; Sadie Mossell, University of Pennsylvania; Anna Broadnax, Oberlin College; secretary—Mary Cromwell, University of Michigan; treasurer—Luck Mercer Holmes, Oberlin College.

The proposed association of college women will include women from every class "A" college in the country and will be nation wide in scope and influence. Dean Slowe addressed the conference on "The Training of the College Girl." Greetings were extended by Mrs. Kelly Miller; the history of the College Alumnae Club was given by Miss Bertha C. McNeill; the proposed National Federation was discussed by Miss Mary E. Cromwell. Miss Sadie Mossell of Durham, North Carolina, opened the eyes of the college women in her discussion on "Opportunities for Women in Business." Mrs Lillian Alexander, of New York City, told of the college woman's obligations to the community. The field of social service was completely surveyed by Mrs. Francis Gunner, of the Brooklyn "Y." The discussion of the problems of the high school girl made by Miss Anna Broadnax, of Wilmington, Delaware, provoked much discussion. Mrs. Ethel H. Just, discussed "How the Home Functions." All of the subjects were discussed from the floor by various members and the high ground taken by these college women on racial consciousness was commendable. N. A. A. C. P. MEMBERSHIP DRIVE The N.

John Mitchell Receives Set-Back as Court Rules Taxation Was Proper Office: 920 U St., N. W. Virginia Ju John Mitchell Set-Back as Taxation In 1913, at the Batimore session of the Supreme Order of the Knights of Pythias, John Mitchell, Jr., as Grand Chancellor and the Grand Jurisdiction of Virginia, were suspended for nonpayment of the assessed tax to defend the Supreme Order against the injunction secured by the white Supreme Order in the State of Georgia Mitchell and the Virginia jurisdiction enjoined the Supreme Order from carrying out its order of suspension, in the District Supreme Court here in Washington, the Supreme Order being incorporated here. On Tuesday, April the 10th, the Equity Court of the District, upheld the order of the Supreme Chancellor which levied the assessment and also upheld the action of the Supreme Order in revoking the charter of the Virginia jurisdiction. The history of the litigation is as follows: In 1909 the Supreme Order of the Knights of Pythias of the United States (white) obtained an injunction in the State of Georgia against the colored Knights of the United States, enjoining them from using the name of Knights of Pythias, and also the regalia, insignia, etc. That decree was affirmed by the Supreme Court of the State of Georgia. As soon as that decree was obtained, suits were instituted in a large number of states by the white order against the colored, to join them from operating as above stated. The case was brought to the Supreme Court of the United States on a writ of error and the Supreme Court of the United States, in 1910, speaking through Chief Justice White, reversed the Supreme Court of the State of Georgia, and the other suits were dismissed. Tax Proclaimed During the pendency of this litigation, the Supreme Order of the Knights of Pythias (colored) met in biennial session at Kansas City and an emergency tax was created for the purpose of defending the order against the hostile litigation of the white order. The resolution creating the emergency tax was unanimously passed; John Mitchell, Jr., the Grand Chancellor of Virginia, offering the resolution. The emergency tax was apportioned among the grand jurisdictions of the United States. In 1911 the order met in biennial session in Indianapolis, Indiana. A number of the grand jurisdictions had not paid their apportioned emergency tax and were not permitted to take part until the taxes were paid or some arrangements thereof made. Virginia, being represented by John Mitchell, Jr., Grand Chancellor, paid $690.00, which his grand jurisdiction had raised, a number of others doing likewise, and agreed to pay the remainder thereof in four installments, not later than July 1, 1912. As a result, the Virginia jurisdiction, along with others was permitted to participate in the proceedings of the biennial session. All the others paid in consonance with their agreements. Mitchell Denounces Action Subsequently thereto, to wit; in September of the same year, the Grand Jurisdiction of Virginia met in Lynchburg, John Mitchell, Jr., the Grand Chancellor presiding, denounced the action of the Supreme Order at Indianapolis, saying that the levying of the tax was revolutionary and unconstitutional and therefore they declined to pay it. The Supreme Chancellor, S. W. Green, suspended ynolds Robinson 1,50c Tickets,1333 The Best Sport Page in the East. PRICE 5 CENTS Payers urisdiction ell Receives s Court Rules n Was Proper of the Grand Jurisdiction of Virginia for of its action in the matter. In 1913, the biennial session was held in Baltimore, Md. The Virginia Jurisdiction appealed from the suspension of the Supreme Chancellor to the Committee on Appeals and Grievances. The Committee upheld the suspension by the Supreme Chancellor and recommended that the charter of Virginia be revoked, which was accordingly done by the Supreme Order. Thereafter, Virginia, through its Grand Chancellor, John Mitchell, Jr., instituted suit in the District of Columbia, where the Supreme Order is incorporated, to enjoin the Supreme Order from putting into effect the resolution passed at Baltimore, declaring the charter of the Grand Jurisdiction revoked and the Lodge suspended; also stating that the Supreme Order had been guilty of improperly using the money of the order and called for an accounting thereof. The part of the bill for the accounting was dismissed, the court holding that the monies had been properly used; but further held that the tax was unconstitutional, and the suspension and revocation were both illegal. An Appeal Taken An appeal was taken from this decree to the Court of Appeals. The Court of Appeals, reversed the Supreme Court in holding the suspension was illegal, but affirmed its decision in holding the charter to be not revoked, for the reason that sufficient notice had not been given Virginia under the constitution of the order. Subsequently thereto, the Supreme Court passed an order holding the suspension proper, but holding that the constitutionality of the tax had not been determined by the Court of Appeals. The Court of Appeals reversed the Supreme Court again, stating that it intended to put an end to the litigation and that the Supreme Order had the right to carry on its business in consonance with its constitution and by-laws, provided due process of law was had as to the other parties. Thereafter, in 1921, Virginia was cited to appear at Topeka, Kansas, and show cause why its charter should not be revoked for non-compliance with the legal mandates of the order. Virginia appeared, and before proceedings were had, withdrew. The Supreme Order heard the case and revoked Virginia's charter. Virginia returned to the District of Columbia and filed suit against the Supreme Order and obtained a temporary injunction against the Supreme Order restraining it from treating the jurisdiction of Virginia, as having had its charter revoked. Virginians Lose Their Case The case began last week to be heard on its merits; and the Equity Court decided, in a sweeping decision on Tuesday last that the Supreme Order had a right to take the action it did and the charter of Virginia was rightfully revoked and accordingly dissolved the injunction and dismissed the bill. James A. Cobb and Henry Davis appeared for and represented the Supreme Order throughout this litigation.

The reason given for this alleged unsportsman-like action is the outstanding strength of one particular team. It is hard to conceive of Howard men "quitting cold"; because an opponent always looks best on paper. Yet with the meet advertised and men preparing for action, if any fraternity team that had expressed intention to compete should withdraw, it would be hard to think of anything other than poor sportsmanship. This apparent demonstration of poor sportsmanship by certain fraternities shows a lack of vision on their part. As the meet is being held only to stimulate interest in sports, and to create a more friendly feeling among the University student body, it is hard to conceive of any group so lacking in school spirit as to try to discourage or prevent the meet by their refusal to take part in it. The last day to enter is next Saturday, and The Tribune hopes that no fraternity will fail to enter the meet. Those who fail will certainly be setting a bad example. Don your suits, boys, and show that you are true sports!

Scott Armstrong Team Very Formidable The Armstrong baseball machine is out to make it three major sports in a row for the school. Coach George H. Murray expressed real satisfaction over his prospects. The hurling staff is ready with the mainstay Lacey, southpaw Howard and recruit Hammond and the veteran backstop Dorsey to handle them. The first base gap must be filled since Hope has run amiss of the faculty. Captain Ellis at the Keystone sack, Turner, shortstop and Temple third round out the inner-works. Brice and Jones are the only experienced outfielders but from Moroney, Henderson, Welker, Gilbert, Honesty and Brackett it is hoped two more capable gardeners will be found. The team will meet clubs of the Atlantic League and is booked for a trip through Virginia. Relay Team Intact The combination of Levi, Ellis, Berry, and Parham will carry the Armstrong colors at the Penn Relays and Hampton and Howard meets. Coaches Hunter and Miller have great confidence in the above quartet in the dashes as well as the relay events. Smith and Preston are the distance runners. Captain Levi holds the scholastic 440 championship. Other men are showing form in-field and track work. Track, Baseball and Tennis Reciving Attention at Howard Back from a week's sojourn in Virginia where only one game was won, one tied and four lost, Howard's baseball team is making ready to open the season here with Storer College on April 20th. The coaches are to a certain extent satisfied with showing of the team on the road. The facts that the cold and rainy weather time and again forced the squad indoors for training that Opens 3 p.m. Daily Sundays 3 p.m. three men suffered injuries during the early part of the trip and that "Cabbage" Melton one of the best men on the squad could not make the trip have been taken into consideration. Two games were lost to Virginia Normal, one to Virginia Seminary, the Union game was called in the fifth on account of rain with the score tied and two games with St. Paul were split. The heavy clouting and flashy base stealing of Walker, spectacular fielding of Johnson and clever backstopEIGHT ping of Higgins featured the locals work on the road. The Howard freshmen will clash with the Armstrong nine on Monday afternoon, April 16th at 3 o'clock. Interfraternal Meet April 21 With about two weeks to prepare for the Penn Relay Carnival the track team is fast rounding into shape. On April 21st the Interfraternal meet will be held on the campus. Members of the Alpha Phi Alpha group are favorites to land the most events. The varsity men will compete in this meet. From the present outlook Captain Kraft, Brydges, Wyndon, and Robinson will likely sport the Blue and White colors at the Carnival on April 28, but Walker and Wright both have swell chances of breaking in and displacing two of the above quartet. Three tryouts will be held to decide the best four men. Entry blanks have already gone out for the Annual Howard Meet on May 12th. It has not been definitely decided if spring football practice will be held. Within the next few days however, a get-together of officials and candidates for the varsity will be held and administrational procedure discussed. It is also expected that the assistant football coach will be named shortly. Tennis Tournament Announced The Howard Tennis Tournament slated for April 28-May 5 is arousing plenty of interest. Letters will be awarded to 6 men and 4 girls and cups will go to the singles and doubles winners. The finals will be THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNESATURDAY. APRIL 14. 1923 Potomacs Working Hard at Richmond.

At present the squad consists of Joe Washington, William Woods, Ralph Jefferson, Elmer Wicks, and Elias Brown, outfielders; Joe Goodrich and Ben Taylor, infielders; Mack Eggleston, catcher; William Ross, Wayne Carr, Bullet Campbell, Alex Albrritten, Maurice Williams and Lefty Williams, pitchers. "Specks" Clark, who will play short, will arrive the latter part of the week from Porto Rico bringing with him two more players who have had major league experience. The three brothers from North Carolina are expected in camp by the last of this week; they are coming highly recommended and Taylor is hoping they will make the grade. From the looks of the men now in camp and from the pep they have shown in the work outs, Ben will have a hard time picking his team. Bullet Campbell has shown that he is ripe for major league pitching and Taylor is satisfied that before the season is half over, he will be dreaded by all the clubs in the league. Albrritten is played off at 2:00 o'clock, May 5th on the University courts. HOWARD'S CHANCES The chances of Howard's relay team staging a comeback and taking a heat at the University of Pennsylvania Relay Carnival on April 28, were greatly augmented through a recent change in class or group of teams that will oppose the Blue and White quartet. Communication from authorities at Pennsylvania to Director Watson recommended another group which in turn was sanctioned by him. The colleges represented in the new group are West Virginia, Wilberforce, Bates, Brown, Bucknell, Colgate, University de Montreal and Howard. The locals have a much better chance of breezing across the finish line ahead of representatives of the above list than the group first listed with. Morehous Swamps Claflin Atlanta, Ga., April 7, 1923.—The Morehouse Tigers continued their heavy hitting Saturday afternoon and won a 16-1 victory from Claflin University. Captain Dunn, Idlett, and Williams led the Tiger outfit in batting with three hits each, while Hankerson ranked next with two home runs. another pitcher who seems to know how to pitch, and should come through in great style. Ross, Carr and Maurice Williams, who played under Taylor last year, are expected to have one of the best seasons of their career; and if two or three of the younger men can make the grade, the pitching staff of the Potomacs will be one of the best in the East. In the outfield, Taylor already has five men in camp who would have little trouble in making any club; and with at least two more men yet to report, it looks as to the outfield will be well taken care of. The infield is the only thing that is worrying Manager Taylor at present. As his infielders have not reported yet, he is not sure as to who will compose it. Goodrich, from Austin Texas, is slated to play third. He arrived in camp this week and is showing up good in practices. However, with Taylor on first and Clark at short, Taylor will not have so much trouble in breaking in new material. The catching department, with Max Egleston as the ace, is expected to come through in fine style. Several youngsters are battling for the second job. Manager Taylor has arranged for a series of games with the Richmond Giants for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. During these games the Potomacs will have their first test of real battle. The outlook for the coming season is very bright and the Capitol City fans may rest assured that they will have a team that they can well be proud of. showed great ability a sa catcher.

This was the feature game of the season and also the last game that will be played in the Y. M. C. A. gym this season. The preliminary game was played by the Manchester and Alco Juniors which resulted in a score of 21-19 in favor of the Manchesterers. The regular gymnasium classes will begin Monday night April 16, under the direction of the physical director. We hope to have a large attendance of men and boys. The Board of Management of the Y. M. C. A. met in the William A. Hunton room Tuesday evening for the purpose of putting forward every effort to rehabilitate this branch and to devise such means as is necessary to renovate, decorate and improve generally the interior and the exterior of the building. Twilight League to be Composed of Eight Clubs Never before has the local amateur and independent baseball ranks been at such high tension as at present. Nearly 200 players and many times that many fans are agog with the possibilities of the nearly organized Twilight League. This league was first looked upon as a six-club circuit, but the officials were forced to extend the number to eight and allow other local clubs to be associated. Nearby Maryland and Virginia clubs were denied admittance although no less than a half dozen seeked membership. The clubs that have been granted franchise in the circuit are St. Cyprians, Deanwood, LeDroit Tigers, Asburys, Brookland Giants, Teddy Bears, Oriental Tigers and Piedmonts. The Buffalos are at present the only associate club. The Saint Cyrpians will likely start the season with only one change and that at thirdbase. Greenfield will do the bulk of the catching and Barnes and Slade the pitching. The infielders are Campbell, Gordon, Williams, Bush and Dorsey with Harris brothers and Bowling in the outfield. The Teddy Bears shape up as a formidable array, with Payne and Barbour, catchers; Mantyne Harris, C. Fells and Williams, pitchers: Barner, Carroll, B. Fells and Williams, infielders; Stewart, Johnson and Smoot, outfielders and Brown, Smith and Jackson, utilities. The Brookland Giants are as far advanced as any team of the league and there is every assurance that the Giants will be very much in the running from the start. The Piedmonts present one of the best balanced aggregations to be found in the city. About 20 men are listed to show their wares in a Piedmont uniform. The infield with Bland and C. Harris, first; Thomas and Marshall, second; Nickens, shortstop; J. Harris, third is without a superior in the city. Banks and Mills will do the catching and Bland, Kaiser and Henry the pitching. The outfield will be selected from Grant, Scott, Perry, Smith, Ricks, Kelly and Taylor with the first three having the advantage. The Asburys under Manager Williams are expected to be the surprise of the season. The team will likely start the season with Dickson and Wilson, catchers; Settlers and Lewis, pitchers; Williams, Brown, Captain Milan, Robinson and Green, infielders and Thompson, Hansbbury, Faxion, Moten and McKensie in the garden. The Deanwood Athletics have taken on a new lease of life under the management of Robert Jackson who takes over the reins this yaer after a one-year lay-off. In 1921 the Deanwoods under this manager won 46 out of 49 games. Practically a veteran combination will take the field on opening day, Johnson, Watkins, Seaton and Makel will take care of the pastures; the infield will be made up of Johnson, Howard, Taylor, Makel, C. Barbour and Captain R. Barbour. The pitching staff can boast of quality and quantity with J. Green, R. Seaton, Taylor, Anderson and Barbour, and a worthy catching staff is present in Lee and Coons.

Barbour who is already rated as one of the city's leading short-fielders. The Oriental Tigers led by Manager Poe, captain Brown and President Henderson are showing great progress in getting ready for the initial game. As the home grounds of the Tigers will be used this season by the league the management is making every effort to have everything in readiness for the accommodation of the spectators. The Tigers will be represented by V. Harris and D. Harris, catchers; Scriver, Woodland and N. Harris, pitchers; Dotson, Hanson, Davis, Page, Smith, infielders; Rice H. Brown, P. Brown and Holt, outfielders. The LeDroit Tigers, champs of 1922, have been practicing for nearly a month. Few changes will be made in this year's line-up. Collins, Fields, Williams, Kenner, S. Baylor, Tyler and Davis, infielders; Lewis, Everitt Davis and Barnes, catchers; Smith Adams, Plummer and Jefferson on the mound; Pew, Budd, Dixon, Smith, outfielders will battle for berths on the team. ATHENIANS DOWN GLADIATORS The Gladiators journeyed to Baltimore Tuesday night and fell before the strong Athenians of the above city 51-23. Not being satisfied with annexing the Mexican heavyweight championship from Kid Savage, Sam Langford knocked out Aurcleo Balsa in Mexico City last week and added the Spanish heavyweight title to his list. ArmstrongMakes Clean Sweep on Trip Characterizing their trip as the "greatest ever" the Armstrong High basketball team has returned from an Easter holiday invasion of West Virginia and Pennsylvania where six teams were met and all defeated. The aggregations that fell before the Tech five were the Lincoln High, (Wheeling, W. Va.) 45-36; Pittsburg Y. M. C. A. 44-34; Dunbar High (Fairmont, W. Va.) 33-24; Kelly Miller High (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 25-24; and the Fairmont (W. Va.) Vandals 40-24. Coach Westmoreland was unable to make the trip due to the illness of his son and Mr. Benjamin Washington was in charge of the squad. Others in the party were Captain James E. Walker, representing the military department and eight players, Captain Anderson; Turner, Blue, Levi, Ellis, Berry, Whiting, Middleton and Temple. The trip brought Armstrong's season to a close with a season's record of 25 wins out of 20 games. Turner regarded by many as the best high school court performer in the East, has been elected captain for 1923-24.

FRANK COLEMAN THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, APRIL 14, 1923 New Eastern League Clubs Announce Players Philadelphia, Pa., April 7th—The Southwest branch of the Philadelphia Y. M. C. A., again sheltered the leading lights of the colored baseball in the East. The Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs held what will probably be the last meeting before the clubs swing into action the latter part of this month. After wrestling several hours with the problems that confronted them, relative to putting over the new league in a manner that will meet with the hearty approval of the fans, the commissioners are satisfied that no stones have been left unturned to give the public an enterprise worthy of their support. The following commissioners were present when chairman Bolden called the meeting to order: Thomas Jackson, James J. Keenan, Charles P. Spedden, Nat. C. Strong, the one absent commissioner being Alexander Pompez, leader of the Cuban Stars, who is down in Cuba on an ivory hunt and promises to bring back the greatest collection of ball players that the Islands have ever yielded. Actions always speak louder than words and the owners of clubs in the Mutual Association have put in many busy moments since the formation of the organization, gathering together teams that they feel will yield them the first championship. The ball players being aware of the recognized financial resources of all clubs in the Mutual Association, have explicit confidence in connecting with the Eastern organization. One of the most recent luminaries to sign with the Brooklyn Royal Giants, was "Cannonball" Dick Redding the well known hurler. As another experienced pitcher was all the Royals needed, they now loom up as a dangerous contender with the following men in line: Spearman, c; Cason, C; Douglass, 1b; Jackson, 2b; Wagner, ss; Hill, 3b; Files, f; Scott, cf; Brooks, rf; Hubbard, p; Rector, p; "String Bean" Williams, p; Starks, p. Manager Spedden of Baltimore Black Sox made a ten strike when he signed Rojo, the peppery Cuban catcher and Britt, one of the best all-around players in the game. Mahoney is also a new comer to the Monumental City and from the manner in which he performed on the mound last season, should turn in many wins for the Sox this season. The balance of the team will be composed of: Wilson, 1b; Cleo Smith, 2b; "Possum" Poles, ss; Miller, 3b; Wyman Smith, rf; Harry (Rags) Roberts, cf, Hall, 1f; Sykes, p; Richardson, p; Wheeler, p. Tom Jackson, member of the Bacharach Giants, had not only the proposition of strengthening his club to contend with, but a home park at Atlantic City was not available and the promoters have been forced to build. Jackson, however is very optimistic, stating "the park will be completed by the first of May, the fans of Atlantic City have welcomed the entrance of our club into organized ball and we feel confident that our club should be able to stay around the ton." The roster of the Atlantic City team will include; James (Yank) Deas, c; Cummings, 1b; Downs, 2b; Davis, 3b; Lindsay, 3b; Lundy, ss; White, lf; Mason, cf; Reed, rf; Crockett, rf; Hampton, p; Henderson, p; Harper, p; Nat. Johnson, p. With lines out to land another reliable backstop, the seashore representatives present a formidable array. The Lincoln Giants management has surrounded big Joe Williams with a wealth of talent, especially in the pitching department. The following hurlers are capable of making much trouble for opposing clubs: Dave Brown, Holland, Streeter, Bradford, Marcell, "Highpocket" Hudspeth, and James Brooks are now men that owner Keenan is banking on to strengthen its combination. The other players in line are: Gatewood, c; Hudspeth, 1b; Singer, 2b; Perry, 3b; Fiall, ss; Gans, lf; Jule Thomas, cf; Spottswood Poles, rf. and Pierce, c. To make sure that he doesn't overlook some promising material, manager Pompez of the Cuban Stars has made a trip to the islands. Outfielder Oms of the Cuban Stars will have to be reckoned with when it comes to long distance clouting. Last season he piled up forty home runs and lead the hitters in the Cuban League during the Winter, which was some feat with such players from the States as Charleston, Lloyd, Warfield, Rojo and Torrienti to beat out. Chacon will again cover the short field and draw from the following lay-out; Fernandez, c; Perez, c; Mayari, 1b; Jimenez, 2b; Teran, 3b; Mosa, 1f; Bare, rf; Miraval, p; Fabre Om Lopez, p. Ed. Bolden has caused a shake up in the personnel of the Hildale outfit that has set Philadelphia agog, being far from satisfied with the showing the club made last season, Bolden St. Paul Loses Two to Lincoln ST. PAUL DROPS TWO BRILLIANT GAMES TO LINCOLN By J. L. Whitehead Lawrenceville, Va.—Stopping over at Lawrenceville on their return trip, after a most successful Easter southern tour, and being in a rather retaliatory mood as the result of the two wallops received at the hands of St. Paul's 1922 fighting diamonders, the Lincoln University premier baseball outfit nosed out two victories over the heavy slugging, consistent bunting and fast fielding tigers before crowds which jammed the unique athletic field of St. Paul Normal School, the institution which is gradually rising into collegiate prominence. The first game was slow on account of wet grounds, but there were several brilliant flashes of hard hitting and speedy fielding. In the second game, Lincoln sent Wilson to defend the mound; and notwithstanding the fact that he allowed hits, he pitched a nice game. Leroy Williams was designated to toss for St. Paul. Both games were featured by veritable sportsmanship and thrilling plays. The opposing teams put up a stubborn and hard fight from the time Walker pitched the first ball on Thursday until Captain Harris slided into Crudup's glove, which contained Spalding's cork center, for the final putout Friday afternoon.

High School Athletic Notes Cross-country Run on The headliner for next week's athletic activities at the high schools is the 3-mile cross-country run to be contested on Monday afternoon April 16th. The cross-country run was inaugurated in 1921 and each school has produced a winner. Preston of Armstrong is the favorite to win. The contestants will start at Dunbar, race round by the reservoir, down Rhode Island and New Jersey Avenues and finish at Armstrong. Bruteigh Dunbar Coach Forty-eight baseball candidates answered Coach Alston Burleigh's call last week. Only four regulars of last season will be available. The veterans around which a team will be moulded are Jackson, centerfielder; Reese, third baseman; Parker, catcher and Mitchell pitcher. Already many promising youngsters have loomed to fill the openings and give battle to the vets. THEATRE NOTES REAL DILAPIDATION IN SCREEN VILLAGE When Mary Pickford got through instructing Frank B. Ormston, her art director, as to how she wanted the reproduction of the lowly fishermen's village built for her new 1922 photoplay version of "Tess of the Storm Country," a United Artists' Corporation release coming to The Broadway Theatre next Thursday, he says he felt just as if he had been plunged into a combination housewrecking and junk business. This feeling was inspired by Miss Pickford's emphatic determination to attain actual realism by having a "set" in which real dilapidation should be unmistakable. As described by Grace Miller White in her famous "best-seller" novel from which this photoplay was adapted, this center of the activities of the lovable Tess constituted a vertiable last word in tumble-down shacks and shanties. The requirements of this production, so explicitly explained by the has added many new faces to the Hilldale lineup and feels that he has the best combination that has ever sported the Hilldale colors: Santop, c; Mackey, c; Allen, 1b; Warfield, 2b; Judy Johnson, 3b; Lloyd, ss; Stevens, ss; Carr, if; Thomas, if; George Johnson, cf; Briggs, rf; Winters, p; Ryan, p; Gardner, p; Lee, p; Cockrell, p; Flournoy, p. star, sent Mr. Ormston on a quest of old things in general which extended over a period of five weeks and covered most of Southern California. In San Diego, he found a queer old house, built forty-three years ago. He bought the whole thing, took it apart, crated and shipped it to Chatsworth Lake, the site selected for the village, where he put it togetehr again and made it one of the dozen or more complete and practical huts in the "set." DEBATING AT HOWARD Washington, D. C.—There is very keen interest in debating at The Howard University this year. Since the preliminaries which resulted in the selection of first and second teams, these two teams have been laboring assidiously in the final preparation for this intercollegiate activity. The selections of first and second teams were only tenative, but since the coaches have had the opportunity to judge the calibre of work of the members of these teams, they have been practically decided that the teams be permanent. The team to meet Atlanta University in the regular annual debate with that school, to be held at Atlanta, Ga., on April 27th, will be composed of Y. M. Y. L. Simms and Mr. Irving Gough, with Mr. W. R. Adams and Mr. M. G. Edmonds as alternates. The teams to engage Lincoln and Union in the annual triangle will in all probability be Messrs. L. E. King, F. H. Robb, and G. Carrington to meet Union, and Messrs. J. A. Curry, A. C. Gilbert and A. M. Brady, to engage Lincoln. The alternates are Messrs. F. Williams, D. Moss, and A. C. Maxwell. The triangle teams are under the direction of Professor Gregory. Professor Birch has the supervision of the team to engage Atlanta. These gentlemen are sparing no efforts to put on the forum another winning aggregation. The triangle contest takes place on April 27th, with Union's affirmative team engaging Howard's negative at Richmond, Lincoln's affirmative engaging Union's negative in Atlantic City, and Howard's affirmative entertaining Lincoln's negative in Washington. Howard's negative team of the dual contest with Atlanta meets Atlanta's affirmative in Atlanta. The question for the triangle contest is: "Resolved, That France was justified in occupying German territory to collect the reparations guaranteed by the peace treaty of Versailles." The discussion for the dual contest is: "Resolved, That the Republican party by its attitude on the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill has forfeited the allegiance of the Negro voter of America." Each of the contests should be most interesting because of the importance of the questions and the painstaking care that has accompanied the preparation for a discussion of them.

QUESTION BOX Mr. Frazier: Please tell me what is meant by the terms "The Far East," "The Middle East," and "The Near East"? Also tell me where the Chinese came from. —R. C. B. Answer: To travelers and others, China and Japan are considered "The Far East"; India "The Middle East," and Egypt, "The Near East." This is the way the world thinks of these countries. Where the Chinese people came from is not so easy to say. But while legend and fact are woven together in her early history, the Chinese historians trace her history straight back to a period before what is known as "The Deluge." This agrees with the statement of those who say that "The Flood" was no world-wide cataclysm, but was a series of wide-spread disasters that in the course of time destroyed the old continent of Atlantis and dispersed her people in a series of migrations. Of these people the last to go out and the only portion to survive were the Mongolians of today—so runs the legend. Mr. Frazier: Is it true that there have been two "Blind Toms" who were musical prodigies? If so, who were they?—C. W. W. Answer: No. There have been two blind Negro musical prodigies. Thomas Greene Bethune was the most famous and he was called "Blind Tom." John William Boone, called "Blind Boone" was born in 1864 in Missouri. He received much attention in America but never reached the prominence of "Blind Tom." Boone was not born blind as was Bethune. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNESATURDAY. APRIL 14. 1923 EMANCIPATION AND THE FREED IN AMERICAN SCULPTURE A Study in Interpretation By FREEMAN HENRY MORRIS M FREEMAN HENRY MORRIS MURRAY (Continued from last week) "EMANCIPATION," FIGURE, DETROIT By RANDOLPH ROGERS A figure which merits special mention is the graciously noble "Emancipation" by Randolph Rogers which is one of the nine figures which embellish the Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument in Detroit, unveiled in 1873. This Rogers (another will be mentioned) is best known for his famous bronze doors, and their frame, at the eastern entrance to the Rotunda of the Capitol at Washington. (One of the figures on the frame of these doors will be discussed further on.) Mr. Taft refers to Rogers' work on this Detroit monument, especially the figure of "Michigan" at the top, as "almost inspired." t. e. n d t s u u- l r f t r POLSKA Above: Military Monument, Detroit, by Randolph Rodgers Emancipation, figure, on Military Monument, Detroit, by Rogers. Emancipation, figure, on Military Monument, Detroit, by Rogers. Emancipation, panel, Military by Levi T. S. (This picture was inadvertently March 17, 1939 ```markdown ``` There are four allegorical female figures. A letter from Miss Helen L. Earle of the Michigan State Library says that these figures symbolize: "Victory," "Union," "History," and "Emancipation." Of these figures, Mr. Taft says: "'Emancipation' in particular is worthy of study, an African type idealized and treated heroically." The picture shown herewith was made from a photograph which my friend Francis H. Warren, Esq., had taken for me just after Sun-up, seeking to get a good light effect. He says, in a letter to me, of "Emancipation": "She sits there upon terms of equality with her white sisters on this everlasting monument, each extending benign blessings upon the heroic form of a soldier just below her: the lady of color being in the act of placing two wreaths, one in each hand." It will hardly escape notice that, of the three (the three shown in the picture) "Emancipation" appears to be the most absorbed and earnest. The other female figures are pleasing and well-modeled but there is about them a suggestion of affectation; their wreaths are held rather listlessly or laintily; and they are otherwise lacking in appeal. In fact, as a lady looking at the picture said to me, "they By MORRIS MURRAY look much like they might be merely watching a parade pass by." Perhaps their tameness would not be so apparent but for the exceptional vigor and power of the "Emancipation", figure. Miss Earle in her letter remarks that the work of Rogers is uneven. It undoubtedly is markedly uneven on this monument, not only in these female figures but in other respects. (It should be borne in mind, however, that unevenness is a very common if not a universal fault in artists.) But Rogers, in his conception and execution of this "lady of color," has surely reached a high level. In this case, it would be perilous and ungracious also to undertake to interpret too closely. Suffice it, that "Emancipation," as one of the beneficiaries of the work and sacrifices of these military heroes whom she is tary Monument, Cleveland, T. Scofield untly published out of sequence, (7, 1923) assisting to honor, has, like the woman who anointed the Savior with the precious ointment, "done what she could." And nowhere in American art, not even in the "Libyan Sibyl," has a daughter of Africa been more graciously "idealized and treated heroically." "EMANICIPATION" PANEL CLEVELAND BY LEVI T. SCOFIELD One of the largest and most magnificent of the many Soldiers' and Sailors' Memorials in the country is the one in Cleveland, Ohio. The architect and sculptor was Levi T. Scofield. It is a noble and beautiful achievement. It is of the same general type as several others, including the great Linocln Memorial at Springfield, Illinois. It was dedicated July 4, 1894. In this monument, a tall shaft rises from the center of a rather large and ornate structure, enclosing a large room, on the walls of which are tablets, reliefs, medallions, etc. On pedestal bases, detached from the main central structure, are four large bronze groups representing the various arms of the military service: Infantry, Cavalry, Artillery, and the Navy, respectively. MARIA MAYER Of these groups, the one representing the Navy is of special interest in this connection. It really portrays "Mortor Practice" on a Mississippi River gunboat. In the group are six men. The man who handles the swab is a stalwart Negro, in whom the characteristic racial features and traits are fully brought out, if not emphasized. Among the sculptured panels in the interior of the basic structure, one represents "The Emancipation of the Slave." The matter is here represented in a very commendable and inspiring manner, although, from a technical standpoint, Scofield's work as a sculptor (he is primarily an architect) is not rated high. On the "Emancipation" panel, Mr. Lincoln occupies a central position, standing. He is flanked, two on each side, by four of Ohio's leading sons who were among those who advised, even urged, Mr. Lincoln to take the great step; holding it to be "constitutional, just and expedient." These men are: Salmon P. Chase and John Sherman; Benjamin Wade and Joshua R. Giddings.(See Note 15) In the background are the dimly outlined forms of the Union armies and navy, standing ready to ratify and enforce the action of the President. Mr. Lincoln holds aloft the shackles with his right hand. His left hand is extended, holding a musket and accountrements. The musket is also grasped by the left hand of the Freedman, who rests on one knee, while his right hand is upraised, taking the soldier's oath. We can easily imagine him repeating the words of the oath and then adding some such words as those of the Negro color-sergeant at Port Hudson: "I'll bring back these colors in honor, Sir, or report to God the reason why." This splendid memorial, with its double recognition and doubly creditable recognition of Black Folk, is characteristic and representative of the spirit of Liberty and Equality which has always pervaded and dominated Ohio's "Western Reserve," and Cleveland, its virtual capital. Furthermore; when we remember that, of the numerous productions of American art—including sculpture, painting, and especially illustration—in which Black Folk are depicted, far the greater number are insidious belittlement or plain caricature or worse; this panel by Scofield must grow in our regard; for it partakes of none of these; nor is it one of that other class of productions which, while not exactly offensive or irritating, yet when we view them, incline us to say to ourselves: "Well, yes; that's correct, I suppose, but—." (To be continued) MY APPRECIATION The Easter cards I received were beautiful and I take this means of noting their receipt. Too, Bunny was good to me and sent me many eggs. Although I was confined to my bed—I really enjoyed my Easter. I wish that I could have sent each little Tribunite a card—but of course, I could not. Again I thank you, my little friends. Note There have been complaints that birthday cards were not received by some of the members of the Birthday Club. Please notify me if you failed to get yours. -C. L.

Beta Chapter, Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity A LETTER FROM OUR FIRST "HONOR CHILD" Dear Mr. Frazier: I read with regret the announcement of your illness, on the "Children's Page" and hope you will soon be yourself again. I think that Rufus Turner's idea of a meeting of all Tribuites is grand. I hope other Tribuites will think about the idea and offer suggestions. I don't see why we shouldn't meet and organize a club that would grow and in time become permanent. And, now, Mr. Frazier, I have something else to say, and that will be all from me. I read Louis E. Amos' Easter story concerning the rabbit and the eggs but this one my mother told us when we were little and I rather like the reason given for the rabbit being associated with the eggs at Easter time. This is the story in my own words. It is a German folk-lore tale. Once upon a time a hen had wandered off into the woods where she made her nest and there she had been setting for two weeks and five days. It was the day before Easter when a hungry fox happened along, saw the fat hen sitting all alone, pounced upon her and that was the last of the hen. A rabbit came along shortly afterwards. He was looking for a place to sleep, spied this nest and without a thought of the owner, arranged himself comfortably over the nest of eggs that were still warm. The next morning, Easter, to his surprise he was surrounded by a nest of beautiful baby chicks. Ever since the rabbit has been associated with the eggs at Easter-time. With the hope that you will soon be all right, I remain an interested Tribunite. MARY A. THOMAS (Age 14) LETTERS FROM OUR LITTLE FRIENDS Dear Editor: I am sending my best love to you. I am still one of the Tribunites and am trying my best to try and make more effort to stick to it. I am very sorry to hear that you are sick and I hope you will soon be able to be out again. ELEANOR WARD (Age ?) Dear Editor: I am writing to tell you that I like Rufus P. Turner's plan of holding a special meeting at some place and call all of the Tribunites together to discuss how to make our page more interesting. FRANCES BOYD (Age 15) Dear Editor: I read the "Children's Page" every Saturday and I see so many nice things in there that I thought I would write to you. My address is 22 L Street, N. W., my school is Alfred Jones, and class is 7-A. ELIZABETH KING (Age 13) Dear Editor: Hello! How are you and the rest of the Tribunites? I guess you think that I have forgotten you but I have not. I have been very busy with my school work. I am sending in some answers to the puzzles. I promise you that I will send in answers more often. Love to all of the Tribunites. GLADYS E. TINNEY (Age 15) Subject: PAGE SEVEN DO NOT USE THE WORD "NIGGER" Alexandria, Va. Dear Editor: I am sending in the answers to the puzzles for Easter. I go to the Parker-Gray School, and I am in the Fifth Grade. I am ten years old. You will also find enclosed answer to the Printer's Pi puzzle. Dear Alexandrian: Just a few weeks ago a Tribunite sent in a set of answers and because he failed to sign his name he had to go without a reward. Always sign your name to your letters; you, too, have deprived yourself of a prize because you omitted your name—C. L. F. Dear Editor: I have not written to "The Children's Page" for two weeks. I was overjoyed when I saw my name in the paper as a "Special." I am answering some more puzzles. I hope the Editor will soon get better. CARL CHASE (Age 12) Dear Friend: I am very sorry that you are sick and sincerely hope that you will soon recover. When is your birthday? Is not spring beginning nicely? EMMETT MORSE (Age ?) Dear Emmett: I am well again. My birthday is June 1st. Always address your letters and cards to the "Children's Page." When you do not they may be delayed here at our office before I get them. Rev. Brayton C. Case of the American Baptist Mission writes of his work at the School of Agriculture, Pyinmana, Burma, as follows:— Our Agricultural School in spite of setbacks has been progressing. Government has acquired the land for our school farm, and now one of my diversions is running a two hundred-acre farm. The machinery we brought from America has been of good service. The little one-horse plows with sod moldboards are just the thing for a pair of oxen. They plow a field in half the time it takes with a Burma plow. We have grown some field-corn with seed selected and planted according to our approved American methods. The people thought it was foolish of me to spend so much time rooting over piles of corn to get what I wanted, but we have grown the best corn anywhere around here this season. This week I am beginning a new venture in agricultural work. Our annual class for native workers is being held, and I am giving a short course on poultry for ten days in addition to Bible study and evangelistic methods. The people will include Christians from the jungle who are leaders among the groups of converts where they live. I am trying to train them to be preachers and lead in Christian activity where they live. These lay workers are the only means we have for extending our work in many places. By helping them in this practical way in a business in which they all have some interest, I shall not only help them to earn a living for themselves but also give a point of contact with those to whom they will preach. —Southern Workman THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE Published Weekly at Washington, D.

There should not be a separate day or hour for colored people and white people to play golf, tennis, baseball or whatnot on a public ground of the District of Columbia. The colored people pay their taxes and form more than one fourth of the population. As American citizens, why should they want to segregate and separate themselves by asking for a special day, or hour? There is sufficient pressure for segregation of the Negro here in the District from prejudiced race haters. And when our professional men get together and voluntarily ask for a separate day for golf playing, they are simply "playing" into the hands of the people who are always looking for an opportunity to push their plans for full segregation upon the Negroes of the District. Our professional men—of all men—should be united in a fight for full and free citizenship in the Capital of the nation instead of asking for segregation. The race is looking for professional men, whom they support, to have racial consciousness burning in their breasts to the extent that they will not even contenance segregation, not to think of asking for it. If race pride and racial consciousness is lacking in the college bred men of the race, what can we hope for from the ranks? ALEXANDRIA. VA..

An elaborate Memorial service was held by Alexandria Lodge, No. 48, I. B. P. O. E., at Roberts Chapel Sunday night. It is claimed to be the best of its kind the local Elks have ever held. Long before the war he served. Long before the hour of opening the church was crowded to capacity. The out-of-town participants were George E. B. Eats, Grand Secretary, I. B. P. O. E. W. of Newark, N. J.; Mr. Frederick Smith, (a former Alexandrian) of Jersey City; and Mr. James Howard, an Alexandrian, now teaching at St. Paul School, Lawrenceville, Va. Mr. Howard's eulogy was acclaimed the best heard in Alexandria for quite awhile. The recitation by little nine-year old Mary Johnson; the dialogue by Warren M. Wair and Russell Hackley, and the singing by the choir were commendable. The church was beautifully decorated with palms and flags, while a magnificent electric display showing the number of deceased members, was a credit to Mr. Philip C. Evans, who displayed much skill in designing the same. The outstanding feature of the decorations was a large purple silk clock, having antlers attached, with the hands pointing to the hour of eleven over which was a light that burned throughout the exercises, other lights being flashed as the secretary called the names of the honored dead. The deceased Elks for the year of 1922 were Moses Dixon, Edward Ford, Charles Greene, William H. Dade, Johnson Steward, Edward Julius, Ollie Jones, William Toliver. --- NOTICE Elk's Memorial The Washington Tribune Mr. Jams F.

BASEBALL IN ALEXANDRIA BY Willie Mc. For a number of years, the baseball enthusiasts of Alexandria have been disappointed at various times, as to the "showing" made by representative teams. The colored population of Alexandria is too small to successfully support—financially—two or more teams. Then, too, the resources from which to draw material is so limited, that one team would find it difficult to fill the vacancies which would naturally occur. The two popular teams in Alexandria, known as the Lafayettes and All-Stars, should permanently unite, select a man with sufficient knowledge, experience and interest, to manage it; have an aggregation that would be second to no "sand lot" team, and be worthy of the support that it would justly demand. As it is now, the managers of these teams are at the mercy of the players, for as soon as a disagreement takes place, the players jump from one team to another and back again. Why do not the managers cooperate, draw up rules, and stop these "grass-hoppers" from distracting from the strength of their teams? It can be done! Stop crowing about the public not supporting the teams, and give them something worth while. It is NOT the town, it's YOU!! COUNCIL UPHOLDSPARKER DISMISSAE COUNCIL UPHOLDSPARKER DISMISSAE (Continued from page 1) tenber 3, 1915, were produced which showed that Rev. Parker had been turned out and Rev. E. E. Ricks was moderator of the meeting at that time and pastor of the church. Rev. G. C. Lampkin created a stir when he arose to ask Mr. Parker a question. It developed that the Rev. Lampkin was not a member of the council because he had not been invited by Mr. Parker. Rev. Lampkin stated that he was a regular pastor of one of the Baptist Churches in Washingto and that "this conference was made up of handpicked pastors in order that a favorable decision would be rendered for the Rev. Parker." Information from the First Baptist Church was called for by Dr. Walter Brooks and Dr. W. H. Jernagin. Rev. Pinn was not a member of the council and therefore, had Chas. S. Hill there to represent the church. As soon as Mr. Hill arose, the three lawyers on the other side arose and objected to the church being represented by a lawyer. Nearly an hour was spent trying to prevent Mr. Hill from presenting the information desired by the ministers. However Rev. Pinn was permitted to present the First Baptist Church's side regarding the issue and read from the church records which showed that $3,667.07 had been received in the eighteen months in which Rev. Parker claimed $3,800.00 was paid the pastor. The church presented a statement from the Capital Audit Co. showing that only $3,657.06 had been spent in the given time which Rev. Parker claims that $3,800 was paid the pastor. SCURLOCK HAS NOVEL DISPLAY Mr. Addison N.
