COPELAND MAY GO TO GALLOWS First in Local Circulation. VOL.3,NQ.23 FOUND GUILTY OF MURDER IN FIRST BEGREE FOUND GUILTY OF MURDER IN FIRST BEGREE Herbert L. Copeland, slayer of a policeman, a lieutenant of police, and an alleged deputy sheriff from Maryland on May 21, 1918 was found guilty of murder in the first degree, which carries the death penalty, by a jury in Criminal Court, No. 1, Justice Bailey presiding last Thursday after one hour's deliberation by the jury. The Copeland murder case was one of the shortest cases of this kind on record here, and yet, full opportunity was given the defense to present its case. Copeland's counsel consisted of three of the most brilliant colored lawyers in Washington; Henry Lincoln Johnson; Benjamin L. Gaskins, and Royel A. Hughes composed the trio. The case was hard fought throughout. The Counsel for the defense may note an appeal. The big surprise of the trial was the failure of Copeland to take the stand in his own behalf. After a conference of his attorneys, it was decided that Copeland would not take the stand. The trial developed the fact that L. H. McParlan of La Plata, Maryland and some friends came to Washington to kidnap Copeland and take him back to Maryland. All of the witnesses who testified were called by the prosecution; even Copeland's half brother was summoned as a witness against him. That no harm would befall Copeland, the District authorities, placed him under heavy guard during the entire trial. A special van brought him from the District Jail and he was carried handcuffed to the entrance of the court room; guards preceded and followed him into the court room and sat beside him during the entire trial. The shades in the corridors looking into the court room were all drawn and admittance to the court room was extremely difficult to obtain. The case started Monday morning and ended Thursday afternoon about three o'clock. After the shooting of the three men by Copeland in 1918, Copeland made his escape from the District jail and was a fugitive from justice until early in July of this year when he was arrested in Akron, Ohio, at the plant of the Firestone Rubber Co., where he was working under the alias of Golden. At the time of his escape from jail here, there was some doubt as to whether he could have made his escape through the hole found. It was claimed at the time that some of the other prisoners had killed him and had destroyed his body. PHI BETA SIGMA TO MEET IN NASHVILLE Nashville, Tenn.—The Phi Beta Sigma fraternity will hold its tenth annual convention in Nashville, December 26, to 30.

WAGE EARNERS TO HAVE MEETING The National Association of Wage Earners of which Miss Nannie H. Burroughs is president, will hold a big meeting here Sunday, November 11.

The Washington Tribune New York City—Determined to stage a comeback after its disastrous walloping in the '1921 election, when it lost all representatives in the assembly and the board of aldermen for the first time in several years, the Socialist party has placed a complete ticket in the field in this city this year. Mrs. Randolph, who is the wife of A. Philip Randolph, Socialist candidate last year for secretary of state, has adopted a platform which, as she disclosed last night, calls for "international brotherhood," better schools for Harlem children, better housing, more playgrounds, clean streets and race tolerance. Announcing the Annual FOOTBALL CLASSIC CONCERT and RECEPTION Ford Dabney's Syncopated Orchestra of the Ziegfield Midnight Frolic Thanksgiving Night in the gorgeously appointed Crystal Auditorium of the Philadelphia Academy of Music --- Marcus Garvey To Speak Here Tuesday The Hon. Marcus Garvey, president of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and provisional president of Africa, will make his first appearance in Washington since his release from the Tombs prison in New York City. Mr. Garvey is now on a tour of the United States, delivering speeches in the principal cities. Mr. Garvey will appear here under the auspices of the local U.N.I. association, at John Wesley A.M.E. Zion Church, 14th and Corcoran Streets, Northwest, next Tuesday night, November 6 at 8:30 p.m. Attorney Joseph H. Stewart, the president of the local, and Mr. Lionel L. Oxley, executive secretary, are making elaborate plans for the entertainment of Mr. Garvey while here. Race Woman On Socialist Ticket Among the six women aldermanic candidates is Mrs. Lucile Randolph in the 21st Manhattan district. Mrs Randolph is the first Negro woman to run for office in New York, and her candidacy is progressing finely. The Negroes of Harlem are deserting the Republican ship at a very rapid rate. The Socialists and Democrats now have the upper hand in this densely populated section. More Negroes are running for office this year than ever before in the history of this section. Several of them are expected to be elected. in honor of the Howard-Lincoln teams, featuring nationally recognized as the peer of all concert and dance institutions. Particulars regarding the advance sale of Boxes, Loges and reserved seats will appear in next week's issue of the Tribune. The Allied Collegiate Entertainment Committee It has been arranged so that the Special Howard-Lincoln excursion train will leave as late as 4 a.m. from Philadelphia to allow the patrons of the football classic, concert, and reception to remain till closing hour. Published Weekly COMRADES START FUND FOR WIDOW OF PURCELL Wife and Two Children Face Winter Without Means Of Support Left with two children to take care of and with no visible means of support, is the plight of Mrs. Purcell, wife of Policeman John W. Purcell, who was killed by some gangsters in an alley in the Southwest two weeks ago. Knowing of the condition of Mrs. Purcell, fellow officers of the Metropolitan Police Department under the guidance of the captain and officers of the fourth precinct to which Purcell was attached at the time of his death, have started a fund for the benefit of this widow and two children. While the drive for funds is somewhat belated, its sponsors hope that a sufficient sum can be realized to help this family through the rigors of the coming winter. The Dunbar Theater at the corner of Seventh and T Streets, will give a special matinee next Wednesday afternoon for the benefit of the family. Following this matinee at the Dunbar, the Lincoln will give matinees on Thursday and Friday for the benefit of the fund. The Georgetown Civic Association gave a benefit entertainment at Mt. Zion M. E. Church, Friday ni. ne for the fund. Judge Robert E. Mattingly of the municipal court on Thursday sent a check for $5, and Vincent Marino, a bondsman, also contributed $50. In making his donation Judge Mattingly said: "There are four classes of public servants in this district who are deserving of far greater compensation than they receive for the important duties they perform and to maintain their families; namely, public school teachers, police officers, firemen and letter carriers. I wish I were chief of the budget in order that I might be able to at least approve a recommendation to double their present salaries. "The widow and little ones of Officer Pucell are deserving of great consideration at our hands and I therefore find great pleasure in standing here with my mite of five dollars toward a subscription." The public is asked to contribute to this fund. The Tribune will receive contributions and acknowledge receipt of them through its columns. Suburbs Merger Fails Because of Race Prejudice Suburbs Merger Fails Because of Race Prejudice On Monday, October 20, a meeting was held in the Brentwood School auditorium for the purpose of voting upon a plan of amalgamation proposed by the white citizens of Mt Rainer, Md. The proposed merger would include Brentwood, Colnair Manor, Cottag, City, North Brentwood (colored) and Mt. Rainer, Md. The plan was opposed. The main point of opposition being that Mt Rainer, incumbent with a heavy debt seeks to shift it to the adjacent towns. The question of such a merger is not a new one. It originated several years ago, at which time the whites, characteristically flatly refused to accept the Colored portion of Brentwood intothe combination, so it failed, because of their prejudice, supported by their prosperity. Now the former opponents endorse it, their prejudice is now suppressed by their heavy debt. One would expect a woman's club to serve good food; I visited a woman's club the other day and the food was even better than I expected. WASHINGTON, D. C. NOVEMBER 3. 1923 Cabaret Owners Here Perfect Organization At a meeting held last Friday at the Dreamland Cafe, 1827 Seventh Street, Northwest, the various cabaret owners assembled and organized the Cabaret Owners Alliance. This move on the part of the cabaret owners was taken as a means of stabilizing this business here. Among the things contemplated by this organization is co-operative buying, standardizing the type of entertainment and prices. Those who are members of the association are: Paradise Cabaret, 7th and Florida Avenue, Northwest, John Hunter, proprietor, Frank Williams, manager; The Dreamland, 1827 7th Street, Northwest, Murray Barnes, proprietor, Chas. S. Johson and Dennis Marshall, managers; Oriental Gardens, 9th and R Streets, Northwest, Andrew J. Thomas, manager; Ray Gardens, 2nd and C Streets, Southwest, and the New Liberty, New Jersey Avenue and D Street, Northwest, R. Greenlease, proprietor. Columbus, Ohio To Be Host To Fraternities Columbus, Ohio To Be Host To Fraternities Assurance that the largest number of colored college men and women ever to be gathered in convention is made evident by the granting by the railroads of the country of a reduced rate to the members and friends of the Alpha Phi Alpha sorority who are to attend the sixteenth annual convention of this fraternity which will be hold in Columbus, Ohio, dulging the period December 27 to 31, inclusive, 1923. It happens that during this same period the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, of which Dr. Sadie T. Mossel is National President and which has some twenty old chapters with a total membership of approximately five hundred, will also be holding annual convention at Columbus, Ohio, thus bringing together for the first time in Negro college life the largest number of college men and women of the Race at a single event, who are in attendance at the great American Colleges and Universities. According to the announcement by National Secretray Norman L. McGhee of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, the rate reduction is based upon the certificate plan, which provides that when ticket is purchased for the going journey at the straight fare request is made for a certificate which upon validation by him at the meeting will be accepted with payment of one-half fare for the return ticket, causing the round trip to be secured at one and one-half fare. This certificate rate will apply to members and friends of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity. The great growth which has been made in college fraternity organizations during the past year, which growth especially applies to the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity as there have been organized eight additional chapters during 1923, making a total of 40 chapters with a membership of nearly 3,000 will cause an even larger attendance than that of last year when over 500 members attended the fifteenth annual convention at St. Louis, Mo., held by the Alpha Phi Alpha. Among some of the important additions to the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity-chapter roll are the chapters at Marquette University, Milwaukee, Wis.; Johnson C. Smith University, Wis.; Charlotte, N.C.; Denver University, Denver, Colo.; and Morehouse College, Atlanta, Ga.; and graduate chapters at Washington, D.C.; Winston-Salem, N.C.; and Petersburg, Va. From all indications very marked results are to come from this great conclave this year as the program which is being outlined for the sessions contemplates serious consideration of the outstanding problems facing the colored people of America. The young men who are united together in this organization have pledged themselves to accept the responsibility incumbent upon those who are securing college training.

He bewaits the fact that Howard University has a "white minister" for president "instead of a great Negro educator," as its head. He hauls some of the old timers in the persons of Pinchback Bruce and Douglass. The article is a fair description of the District of Columbia, as a part of "These Colored United States." In the final paragraph we find these sentences: "But we are not discouraged by our mighty fall from our high estate. Rather we have girded on our armor to 'regain that blissful seat.' The descent from deserved equality to the abyss of disfranchisement, denial of civil rights, the exclusion from all participation in government, and the Ku Klux Klan is loud and dismal, but hope and determination are with us yet."

Howard University The Senior class gave its initial entertainment in the University Dining Hall Saturday evening October 27th. Admission was only twenty-five cents per person and the students took advantage of the situation by crowding the hall. The music was furnished by students. Judging from comments the dance was the most ideal of the seagon and its source of pleasure beyond exhaustion. After about two week's deliberation upon the idea whether or not to have the Sophomore-Freshman Annual Debate, the Sophomore Class decided at its last meeting to foster the contest. The question was raised because of the decreased spirit within the class as a result of the suspension of two Sophomores. The Freshman Class has begun to practice football under the coachship of Mr. John Burr, assistant director of physical education. Those out number about twenty-five. Many are high school stars. The squad exhibits the best football material of any Freshman Class in many years. The tentative schedule consists of only three games, Dunbar, Armstrong and Storer College. The Omega-Psi Phi Fraternity has created much hilarious excitement on the campus this week by its preliminary public initiation of its Sophomore pledges. The Fraternity has also decorated the coat lapels of a large number of Freshman with the pledge pin. At the chapel hour Wednesday, October 31st, Mrs. Nanette B. Paul, LLB., appeared and revealed through costumes from the Holy Land "The Human side of the Bible." The illustrated lecture was uniquely presented and was of great interest to all present. Dr. Durkee will be the speaker at Vespers Sunday Nov. 4th, at 4:30 p.m. in the University Chapel. On Thursday evening preceding the Howard-Morehouse football game on Friday, Oct. 26th, the students of Howard held a mass meeting in the University Chapel. The chapel was filled with students from all department. Yells and songs were rehearsed and a real university spirit was exemplified. After the mass meeting in chapel the students marched out upon the athletic field and enjoyed a barn fire. Students had collected old fences, boxes, barrels, chairs, benches, shrubbery, etc., and prepared such for burning. About one hour was spent upon the field singing, yelling, and snake-dancing. Then a group of boys proceeded to the city with outbursst of university spirit. The spirited group did not retire until about twelve o'clock. Howard Women's League Elected Officers With the recent election of officers of the Howard Women's League which was organized last spring under the guidance of Dean Lucy D. Slowe for the school year 1923-24, a new force will be present in the life of the young women of the University. The officers are: Mamie G. Neale, president, Aldena Windham, 1st vice president; Ethel Jones, 2nd vice president; Mary C. Johnson, recording secretary; and Susie Brown, treasurer. Trained Nurse Appointed at Howard The University recently appointed Mrs. Carrie L. Brown as trained nurse and room inspector. Mrs. Bowie will look after the health and welfare of the girls who live in the city as well as the health of those living in the dormitories. President J. Stanley Durkee of Howard University had as his guest at a conference luncheon last week, the officers of the Student Council, Mr. Louis E. King, president, Mr F. H. Robb, vice-president; Miss Julia Hubbard, recording secretary; Miss Joanna R. Houston, corresponding secretary; and Mr. E. P. Lovett, chairman of the social committee. The conference related to the more complete understanding by the students of the aims and purposes of the administration in the development of Howard and the more complete understanding of the students' point of view in the development of the University. The conference revealed the fact that all were eager for the one thing, namely, the finest, most scholarly, and most rapid advance of Howard. Seek Closer Connection Between University Schools President Durkee and the board of deans held a conference luncheon to discuss the problems of the university including the more careful supervision of the different schools and departments of work, and the more complete sharing of the burdens of the admin- Methodism Undergoes Crucial Test in Chicago By C. M. Tanner Greater Bethel Church, has planned a great debt paying rally and cornerstone laying during the week, March 16-23, 1924. The plan is to secure five hundred persons who will agree to raise one hundred dollars each in six months' time. Then to simplify this, we are asking each helper to give fifty cents a day, which in six months' time will make nearly one hundred dollars. Greater Bethel Church, in Chicago is engaged in an epoch-making fight for the race and the church. In no city in America has African Methodism been so sorely tried and tested as in this great Mid-west city. Rebellion, treachery and base ungratitude have sought to do their destructive work. There have been more defections here in Chicago from established denominations than in any other one city I know of. This is the breeding place and hobed of the dissenter and schismatic. In no other place in our church have we had so much trouble with divisions and splits, with the establishment of new organizations and social service "churches' 'as we have had in Chicago. There seems to be an infection in the air in Chicago that makes our men unwilling to be moved from Chicago once they are given a charge here and in some instances they are not willing to be moved from one charge to another in the city. And, worse than that they complain that although they are comfortably located this year, yet they are anxious about the year to come and at times are to be found in the ranks of the dissenters—that they are not moved at this time but feel that they may be moved in the future. A striking illustration of this last psychological condition is the case of Rev. Harvey. This Brother was in charge of one of our best and most prosperous charges in the city of Chicago. At the last Annual Conference he was anxious for two things: to be returned to his former charge, St. Mary's and to be elected delegate to the General Conference. It cannot be asserted that he intended to leave the church at any rate, no matter what the Annual Conference may have done, because he was anxious for a place as a member of the General Conference and the General Conference does not meet until May, 1924. It is certainly to be concluded that he intended to remain in our church at least until after General Conference, or he would not have desired election to membership in a body to which he did not belong. Hence the falsity of conclusion that he was already determined to leave the church. That he was not elected was due to his own attitude toward the men rather than anything else. Certainly, if there ever was a fair election it was that of the last election in the Chicago Conference. The Tellers were nominated by Mr. Harvey and were Prideident Gregg of Wilberforce University and Dr. Griffin of the Northwest, Illinois Conference—men whose integrity is above suspicion. If he was not elected delegate, it was simply because he did not get enough votes. However, the peculiar psychology of his leaving as was declared by him, was the fear that while he was sent back this year, he might not be returned next year. Men who have always been tractable and loyal seem to be infected with a germ of rebellion when they reach Chicago and on the least provocation they are ready to raise the standard of rebellion. Yet in the midst of all that has come to us as the result of the defection of Cook and Harvey, the church has shown tremendous and steady strides and I doubt if anywhere in America is the cause of African Methodist growing as it is in Chicago. Coppin Chapel under Rev. Coston has risen with mushroom rapidity, and today we have a congregation of over eight hundred; the pastor's support is from two to two hundred and fifty per month. The same is true in regard to the congregation of Allen Chapel, now worshipping in the building of old Bethel. Rev. T. S. Scott, evangelist and preacher has gathered in five hundred converts within the last eight months. We are to have a new church in Hyde Park. With the opposition we have, two things are absolutely necessary, first: Church vigilance that we do not loose our hold nor be forced to sur- istration by the deans and faculty. The deans and directors present were as follows: Dudley W. Woodard, Dwight O. W. Holmes, George W. Cook, Kelly Miller, Harold D. Hatfield, Dr. A. B. Jackson, Miss Lucy D. Slowe, dean of women, Dr./E. L. Parks, dean of men, and Miss Lulu V. Childers. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE NOVEMBER 3.1923 render to the opposing forces, and secondly, we need more of doctrinal preaching, more polemics, more of the history, purpose and plan or our great church. We must stop any apologetic method, word or act. We have a history and a heritage. We have a mission to the darker races and to the white race as well. We need to be proud of it and assert it. Church loyalty is like political loyalty, it must be cultivated. Men do not become loyal to country or church by intuition, but because of their relationship to it, their knowledge of its purpose, power and place. Because we are struggling here against tremendous odds and because we hear and feel a call to serve God and our fellow man such as we have never known before, we are putting forward every effort to push the battle to the gate. The magnitude and character of our work at this church, to which I have been assigned for another year, doubtless this city, also, offers the greatest problem and greatest opportunity in dealing with our people that can be found anywhere in the fold of the Church. We are carrying forward certain Institutional features in connection with the Church, namely: a Tailoring Printing, Music, Ahtletic, Employment, Millinery and Dressmaking Department, Clinic for Women and Children and Chiropody Clinic. Our Church work, strictly speaking, must be carried forward at the same time. As you can well imagine, it takes an immense amount of money to run this church. In the winter time our overhead expenses are $1100 a month. Our present indebtedness is $58,000, provided the sale is consumed of the old church to a new congregation for $45,000. The rally we are holding in March, is an attempt to secure five hundred persons, who will raise $100 each by that time. To assist us in raising money to advance our work, we are sending a company of young men known as "Bethel's Bix Six," to sing in some of our churches in Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York and other sections of the East. Prof. James A. Mundy is the leader of this troupe. They, will leave this city December 4. They are seeking to raise $3000 to cancel immediate pressing debts. None of these young men is receiving a stated salary. The church is to give them a concert before they go, and a reception and banquet when they return. They will travel in my seven passenger Studebaker sedan, to save railroad fare. I shall go with them, at least part of the way. I am very anxious that we make the best possible terms with the churches, where they will secure engagements to sing. I would be glad if it is possible to locate them among the members of our churches, as they will stay but twenty-four to thirty-six hours at the longest in any place, except, possibly, in the city of Philadelphia. Bethel's Big Six is a male sextette of selected singers from the famous Bethel Church choir and is ready to fill engagements anywhere at any time. We are asking every Bishop, General Officer and church lover in our connection to help us in this struggle. When the strain of our indebtedness is gone, we shall be able to do with greater success, freedom and tangible results, the institutional work of the church hampered as we are with the burden of obligations that are upon us. I call upon the church to help us. Thus far we have not received from any department of the church the gift of a silver dollar because we have tried to carry the load without aid from the financial or missionary department. We are grateful to Bishop Coppin for the loan of $5000 and to Bishop Carey for a loan of $600, the first money that we ever paid on the building; to Dr. John R. Hawkins for securing us the loan of $2500 and also Rev. B. U. Taylor and two of his members for the loan of $2080 but we must be helped at this time. If any of our brethren, North, East, South or West will give these young men, splendidly talented, and devoted to the work, opportunity to serve Bethel and our beloved Zion as well, write to me at Chicago. We hope to be able to pay the church practically out of debt by the time we lay the cornerstone in March, and dedicate it free of debt before the General Conference in May. GENERAL BAPTIST CONVENTION The General Baptist Convention of which Rev. Wm. H. Jernagin, D.D., is president, during the session just closed was considered the best in the thirteen years of its history. A deed to two squares of ground in Douglass Park, valued at $5,000 was presented tothe convention as a gift outright. A director of religious education was appointed who will hold annually an institute for christian workers. The convention will publish a monthly magazine commencing November this year. Every session was filled with earnest enthusiasm and rich fellowship. Several new churches were added to the roster. Much progress is anticipated for the ensuing convention year. This year showed a financial increase over other years. The attendance was also much larger. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR THE NEGRO MINISTRY To the Editor of The Washington Tribune: It is a cause for alarm and regret that so few of our brilliant minded young men, enter the ministry. It is easy to note that this above all callings is woefully lacking in the number of young men, who are entering upon it. There might be so many reasons given for the existence of this condition. There might also be many remedies suggested but the writer will endeavor to deal with only one or two. The fact that I am writing from experience ought to go far towards convincing my readers, of the value of my argument. The first outstanding difficulty that confronts the average young man with ministerial inclinations, is the constantly decreasing reverence for the Creator and the Christ. Another is the alarming development of exclusively materialistic conceptions of life. Still another is the scorn and slurs, with which the aspirations after a christian career are frequently met. I cannot but feel that if our great educators and educational institutions would try to lead our young men to God, and His work they would at least deminish the mass of educated bigots. Let us take Howard University for an example. This institution is the leader of its kind in the highest development of the Negro Race. This University with its various departments is succeeding because of the splendid support of the faculty. But, on the other hand, little mention, if any, is ever made of the School of Religion or any of its members. Yet we have in this department men who are making the greatest sacrifice to prepare for this leadership. Then Howard University is the logical place in which to build up an attractive Theological School to train all classes of ministers. I firmly believe and deeply feel that the Spirit, of the Christ, demands a vigorous campaign for a greater Theological Department on Howard Hill. The Negro pulpits are in dire need of consecrated, educated, well-trained Christian ministers. Let us pray that the splendid president of Howard University, Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, and the entire faculty, may encourage many of our brightest and best young men, who are excluded from the Medical School to enter the School of Religion. Let it be the pride of every father and mother to give one son, to the gospel ministry. Let it be the joy of every sister to have one brother giving his life to this glorious work. Let friends, sweethearts, look upon those who are endeavoring to serve the Christ as the noblest of all. One can truly say, "The harvest is plenteous, but the laborers are few." Let us urge more of our boys to give themselves to this great work. May the future years find Howard University along with other leading institutions molding sentiment among its young men to enter the ministry. May our boys coming from clean, christian homes, wholesome and healthy environments, brought up in Sunday School and Church, give themselves to the gospel work. To the attainment of this end, let us all pray fervently and unceasingly to God, to send some of these splendid young men, out into the world, as builders of "His Kingdom." LEON S.

I was taken with a serious attack of inflammatory rheumatism which kept me in bed for nearly five months. During this time I was treated by five of the most skillful physicians in this city, but obtained very little relief. About the middle of the sixth month of my confinement, I heard of a Chiropractor, Dr. Mary E. Logan whose office is 1623 11th Street, N.W. As soon as I was able, I hobbled to her office leaning on two sticks and took my first treatment which so relieved me that I was able to walk home without an ache or a pain. After the third treatment I was able to return to work and have not lost a single day since. respectively yours, FREEMAN H.

S. S. Cumberland at the U. S. Naval Academy, Annapolis, Md., but came out victorious, 20 to 6. The first score came in the first five minutes of play when successive line rushes resulted in fullback Robinson carrying the ball over Cumberland's goal line for Dunbar's first touchdown. Burton scored the extra point by a dropkick. The defense of the sailors stiffened after this and neither side was able to score again the first half of the game, though the sailors got to Dunbar's five-yard line in the second quarter. A thrill came in this period when Burton got away for a beautiful fifty-yard around the Sailors' right end. In the third quarter the Sailors launched a vicious attack against Dunbar's line which resulted in quarterback Brown going over for the Sailor's only score. The Sailors failed to get the extra point when Rollins broke through their line and blocked the kick. In the last period Dunbar opened up a swift and varied attack which the Sailors fought stubbornly, but in vain. In forward passing in this quarter Dunbar performed splendidly. The veteran slaughter connected with three in succession, one of which resulted in Dunbar's second touchdown. The acute toe of Burton again added the extra point. End runs by Bryson, Dunbar's fast little halfback, and line plunges by fullback Robinson resulted in another touchdown for Dunbar, Robinson scoring his sixth touchdown for Dunbar this season. After the game the Sailors entertained the team with dinner, and a concert by the band of the Cumberland. Last year the Sailors beat Dunbar 12-0.

Scott) Numerous lateral, triple, double, delayed and forward passes intermingled with a few line bucks and many end runs, comprised the varied brand of football employed by the Morehouse eleven at the Griffith stadium, Friday, in their fruitless effort to conquer Howard. The visitors' open attack more than once sent a scare into the Blue and White ranks and at times it looked like the Georgians might succeed at least in scoring, but their own errors of omission and commission were directly responsible for the 10 to 0 Howard victory. The teams battled fiercely the first period. Morehouse "opened up" in a desperate attempt to count while Watson had instructed his men to play a kicking game apparently willing to wait on a break which sure enough came on the last play of the period. Donehy got off a high, short punt to Morehouse's 6-yard line. Hutte elected to catch the ball rather than allow it to fall, and gamble on it crossing the line for a touchback. The plucky little field general was crushed to the ground by Smith on his own 3-yard line just as the whistle ended the period. The opening play of the second period Gayles went back in the end zone to kick out for Morehouse, a high pass came from center and with two opponents charging at him Gayles had to get his balance before kicking and instead of the punt going down the field the ball shot out almost parallel with the chalk lines and Peyton fell on it on Morehouse's 4-yard line. A plunge by Peyton failed to gain but on the next play Doneghy went over and followed by drop-kicking for the extra point. A Morehouse fumble which Kelly of Howard recovered on the visitors' 27-yard line lead up to the final score in less than two minutes after the touchdown. The Bisons were able to advance but 3 yards in as many downs and Doneghy dropped back to the 33-yard mark and kicked a beautiful field goal against the wind, the ball hitting the crossbar and tumbling into the end zone. Harvey's men held their own the third period and outplayed Howard in the finas. In the last five minutes of play an aerial attack advanced the oval 69 yards to Howard's 14-yard line where another loose ball was recovered by Kelly of Howard and Morehouse's last chance to score went a glimmering when Doneghy kicked out of danger. Until he was carried from the field in the fourth period Contee's defensive work stood out as the best individual effort of the game. Kelly's alertness in recovering fumbled balls's commendable. "Speed" Johnson withstood the bulk of the Morehouse attack, admirably. Cook and Irving were conspicuous in the visiting line. The visiting defense stopped Doneghy but he was there with his toe. Gayles and Kelly on the throwing end and Starr receiving, presented the best over-head game seen here this year. The latter was also handicapped with a severe "charley horse." Blackmau made few mistakes in directing the Howard team and contributed a number of substantial gains. Both lines were strong and few gains were made through this sector. Hutt, the elusive Tiger quarter, was forced out of the game with a broken arm. Substitutions: Bagly for Anderson, Brown for Contee, E. Long for Johnson, Griggs for Davis, Light for Hutt, Touchdowns—Doneghy. Field goal—Doneghy. Try for point—Doneghy. Referee, Dr. E. B. Henderson; Umpire Mr. H. Douglass; Headlinesman, Mr. B.

Doneghy of Howard making an end run. Byrd Shines as Lions Triumph From the Charleston (W.Va.) Daily Mail, Oct. 28-Whirlwind Johnson didn't whirl such a lot but ten other gridders from Lincoln university at Chester, Pa., played exact football and Institute came out second best in their game with the Pennsylvanians on Laidley Field yesterday before more than four thousand. Coach Young, of the Lincoln squad, realizing the West Virginians would be laying for Johnson, had the ball teting done by the other backs until the third period. Institute had the jump early in the first period. Cardwell and Eaves made two first downs in rapid succession. A pass, Eaves to Preston gained 16 yrads, and Eaves on a delayed buck made another first down. A second pass was attempted and Lincoln took the ball. Gains on an exchange of punts, and a 30-yard run by Brown changed the complexion of the game and placed Lincoln in striking distance at the end of the period. On the first play of the second quarter, Byrd slipped around the left side of his line for a touchdown, Crudup furnishing the seventh point by a boot which barely skimmed the crossbar. Individually, Institute was a better eleven. Collectively, the eleven players for Lincoln made a better team. They were a better team because they executed their plays with lots more snap and precision. Captain Cardwell was as good as anything Lincoln had to offer, playing a bear of a game for Institute. Preston was the star lineman of the day. He was in the center of nearly every play and cut down a lot of would-be tacklers. Eaves made some hefty gains in line plunging plays. Byrd was a flashy back, turning in a splendid exhibition of football. His 60-yard dash was the longest of the day. He had an uncanny ability to guess where the Institute passes were going, and was generally there to get them. Crudup, who came back from his end position to boot for Lincoln, was their best lineman. The only bad feature of the game were the frequent times out. Lots of times players of either side, mostly Lincoln called for the rule book, to decide questions of the officials rulings.

WILEY WINS FIRST CONFERENCE GAME Marshall, Texas, Oct. 25—In one of the greatest games ever witnessed on a local gridiron, Wiley defeated Texas College here today, 20 to 6. Brilliant generalship by Orange in the forth quarter was largely responsible for Wiley's margin of victory. The winning eleven played brilliantly in the final ten minutes to score 13 points. Owens played a great game at guard for Wiley. Texas College presented a wonderful forward passing game with Redwine, the chief exponent. Line plunging by Baker and Ford aided the losers' attack. Championship May Hinge on Result Baltimore is today the host to the Lincoln and Hampton football teams. This recalls the last time two outside colored college elevens met there back in 1919 at the old Black Sox park when Lincoln, then under the tutelage of the indomitable Fritz Pollard, perhaps the greatest broken field runner that ever trod a gridiron, conquered Va. Union, coached by that wonder kicker and running back Henry Hueles. We do not recall the score, but remember that Lincoln came out on top in a game full of thrills but marred by Pollard's frequent interruptions from the sidelines. Such stars as Law, 1922 Lincoln coach, Sam Taylor, now a regular Northwestern end; Parr, Nix, Gregory, C. Jackson and others were seen in action that day. Hampton and Lincoln will furnish a wonderful exhibition when they clash at Maryland park today. Hundreds of Washingtonians will make the trip by rail and road.

Baltimore Scene of Big Tilt. HAMPTON BY ODD POINT GAINS Seventh Straight on Home Grid By P. Bernard Young, Jr. Hampton, Va., Oct. 27—By winning from Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute, Hampton upheld the tradition that she cannot lose a game on Armstrong Field. This hard-won victory ran the total of games won on this field up to seven, three this year and four last year. Virginia Norma received a kick on her 46-yard line and from there scored a touchdown. After completing a forward pass on the next play for 18 yards, D. Brown of Virginia Normal carried the ball over for his team's only score. The trial for extra point failed. Far from being discouraged, Hampton opened up her great aerial attack. The touchdown came as a result of a perfect pass from Hargrove to the great little end, "Jimmie" Jones. Jacobs kicked the extra point. The referee had not blown his whistle and Gunn kicked this time for the extrane winning point. Both teams fought, but with no ayail, to score in the last two periods. The playing of Capt. T. T. Coleman at tackle was a feature of the game. The annual meeting of the Public Schools Athletic League took place at Miner Normal School Thursday afternoon. Representatives from the following schools were present: Slater, Lincoln, Giddings, Garnet, Mott, Military Road, Ambush, Phillips, Rendall Junior High, Shaw Junior High, Dunbar High, Payne, Cook, New Bell, Garfield, Bowen, Bruce, Smothers, and Birney. President Eugene Clark offered the use of the Miner Normal School Gymnasium for games of the P. S. A. L., and recommended that the Miner Normal boys be used to coach various graded schools athletic teams. It was decided to enlarge the High School Games Committee by providing for representation of the Shaw and Randall Junior Highs. After serving a period of thirteen years as secretary, the organizer of the P.S.A.L., Dr. E. B. Henderson was prevailed upon to accept the presidency. The League was organized in 1910, approved by the Board of Education as the athletic governing body in the schools of the 10th to the 13th divisions. Its first president was the lamented Major James E. Walker, and was followed in office by G. C. Wilkinson, Eugene Clark and the present president Dr. E. B. Henderson. Other officers elected were: Robert Ashton, vice-president; Dr. I. N. Cupid, secretary; James Richardson, treasurer. Additional members of the executive committee were selected as follows: Miss M. E. Smith, Enoch Gray, C. E. Wesley, E. A. Clark. Division Leagues will be formed this week. Pindle, Jacbs, Hargrove, Williams, Gunn, Hardwick, Coleman and Jones were great factors in the Hampton victory. Brown and Baker were the most consistent gainers for Virginia Normal.

Taylor came from the West last spring intent on making this city a prominent baseball center. He did much to enliven interest during the past summer and since the season ended has never let-up. "Old Reliable," as Taylor is generally called, is working toward two objectives—to secure a park here where his charges can perform against foes of any color, and to land a franchise for his Potomacs in the Eastern Association. Few managers could have combated the many handicaps that faced Taylor this season and yet kept a team intact capable of giving battle to anything in this section. From the very opening game at the American League park (the only playing field Taylor was able to secure) the take-all policy of the park owners had to be met. The park authorities even went so far as to prohibit games with white clubs. This made it extremely hard to book good teams here. Taylor also had to meet the Eastern Association competition. While the League officials booked a number of games with the Potomacs, they refused however, to give the local owner any consideration when it came to enticing a player that thought he could better his condition by jumping the Potomacs. On the other hand "Old Reliable" never once encroached upon association rights although any number of disgruntled league players approached him. Since we first learned of Taylor's intention we have been particularly enthusiastic about Washington's baseball future. We have always maintained that there are great possibilities here for first-class Race baseball. With an even break, Taylor will substantiate this conviction. CLOSE GAMES DUE THIS WEEK The victory of the Lincoln Lions over West Virginia was perhaps the biggest shock the dope received Saturday. The loss of quarterback McLean was cited in this cloenum as being the difference in the relative strength of the 1922 and 1923 Lincoln teams. But we failed to reckon with Byrd who bids fair to outshine McLean. St. Paul jumped way out in front in the 'total number of points scored by counting heavily against Living-stone. True. Littlejohn, the North Carolinians' captain and best player was not in the line-up and is still nursing his wounds received in the Howard game, yet nothing but a great machine could pile up fifty points on the Salisbury eleven.

There is no "Whirlwind" Johnson, Doneghy or Fentress to advance the ball.

Howard will face a supreme test against Wilberforce and more than likely be scored upon but escape victorious. St. Paul gets a breathing spell by taking on National Training School.

SPORTS NEW ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION ORGANIZED A group of young men met several weeks ago and organized a club known as the Community Athletic Association with the aim of developing local youths mentally and morally, as well as physically and furnishing interesting and clean games. The officers of the club are: Julius McLenden, president; Edward Hall, vice-president; Claude Alexander, secretary; Paul Lee, treasurer and Charles Jack son, business manager. Charles Hughes has promised to serve the club as director. The boys are also fortunate in having Samuel Lacy to assist them. The club will be given membership in the Y. M. C.

The hearty support and cooperation of the entire community is solicited by the new organization. LAZY AND STALLING BOXING CHAMPS GOVEN A. JOHN CHAMPS GIVEN A JOLT New York, Oct. 30—Boxing champions must defend their titles in bona-fide championship bouts at least once every six months, under a new championship ruling adopted today by the New York State Athletic commission. Failure to do so will result in indefinite suspension for the champion and possibly the forfeiture of his title, while any boxer who engages a suspended champion in New York or elsewhere, will suffer, in turn, indefinite suspension or the refusal of a license to box in New York. By adopting this rule, the commission did away with its custom of arbitrarily declaring forfeited the titles of champions who refused to accept challenges, and, in most cases, elevating challengers to the championship. Forfeiture of titles, it was explained, would apply chiefly to cases where a champion is unable to make his class weight, or is adjudged otherwise unable or unfit to defend his crown. WILLS vs. THOMPSON New York, Oct. 28—Harry Wills, the New Orleans colored heavy, has been matched to meet Jack Thompson, of Boston, for twelve rounds at the National Sporting Club, in the first regiment armory, Newark, on Monday, November 5. If Wills takes Thompson, he doubtless will get another twist with Bill Tate, providing of course, that Tate bests George Godfrey in Madison Square Garden Friday night. Athletic authorities at St. Paul and Va. Normal are negotiating for a post-season game to be played at Lawrence, Va., on December 8.

Wilberfoce Beats Roge Williams Wilberforce, Ohio, Oct. 27—Wilberforce University trampled over Roger Williams University of Nashville, Tenn., with a score of 53-0, today, on Wilberforce's Field. The Gold and Green eleven romped at will with forward passes, end runs and through the bewildered Roger Williams' line for eight touchdowns, three kicks for points and two passes for points. Only in the first quarter did Roger Williams have a chance to score. That opportunity came when Stout after making an end run of 12 yards lost the ball on a fumble on Wilberforce's 20 yard line. Roger Williams hit Wilberforce's line for several gains only to lose on downs. They led Wilberforce in playing for the entire first quarter, making three first downs and recovering two fumbles and keeping Wilberforce on the defensive. They did not show to advantage in kicking and passing. Wilberforce's splendidly finished team, good in all round play worked to its limit a consistent line plunging game against a team unable to stop the onrush. The Gold and Green offense was based almost entirely on going through Roger Williams' line. As in all of this season's games Wilberforce does not have any star player but a team of star players and a perfect machine with three complete backfields of the same calibre. Johnson, captain and full back on Roegr Williams team, although taken out because of injuries, did good work for his team. Line up: Wilberforce 53 Roger Williams 0 Woolridge . . . L.E.

I AM MRS HOKUM Lawrenceville, Va., Oct. 27—Coming here with fast and rugged backs, stalwart and fierce tackling forwards, which form the great pigskin machine built up around All-Southern tackle Mecks and "Great" Duncan, and bent on winning an easy victory over St. Paul, Livingstone College received a rude jolt, and had to be content with a 50 to 0 defeat which is the worst disaster that the boys from the Old North State have ever met. As one remarked, "The Tarheels didn't have a ghost of a show. The nearest they ever reached the 'promised land' was St. Paul's 38-yard line." St. Paul's new shift, facetiously known as the "Dirthouse Fade-away," was a nightmare to the Livingstone players. A big crowd cheered the vanquished for their efforts, determination, stubborn resistance, clean and persistent fight, and the victor for their genuine sportsmanship, strategy and superiority. Walker's place-kick, Maddux's strategy and brilliant playing, Sumlar's 30-yard run, Cooke's generalship, and Scriber's daring feat, the grasping of a 32 yard pass from Walker behind Livingstone's goal line, after it momentarily appeared in the hands of Livingstone's safe man, for a touchdown were the main attractions of the final act. Louvick and Duncan starred for the North Carolinians. St. Paul made 21 first downs against 1 for Livingstone, and that one resulted from a penalty. St. Paul completed 6 out of 9 forward passes Livingstone failed in their attempts. St. Paul intercepted 3 forward passes. Touchdowns: Parker, Walker (3), Coleman, Scriber (2), Cooke. Points after touchdown: Walker (2). Substitutions—St. Paul: Powell for Parker, Mason for Boykins, Jackson for Byrd, Miller for Blackwell, Allison for Burrell, Cooke for Lawyer Williams, Scriber for Collins, Oliver for Allison, Blackwell for Miller, Boykins for Mason, Sumlar for Scriber.

Headlinesman and Time keeper—Mr. Fisher (Horehouse). Greensboro, N. C.—October 27, St. Augustine's School of Raleigh, N. C., met a 36 to 0, defeat at the hands of A. and T. College in a hard but cleanly-fought game here on Dudley field. The visitors offered formidable resistance at the outset, but due to effective mass action on the part of the local aggregation, this was easily overcome. "Horse" Lane, intercepted a forward pass and ran twenty yards for the first touchdown. In the third period, Bell the swift quarterback ran back a punt 4 yards before he was downed. The Aggies then resorted to line smashes and after several short snappy rushes, they succeeded in making another touchdown, Coleman rushing directly through center, where "Doubledock" Patterson, had opened a large hole. The spectators received a thrill in the fourth quarter when Freeman ran 80 yards to A. and T.'s 10-yard line, before being downed by Forbes. When downed, Freeman dropped the ball which was seized by Coleman, who galloped 90 yards for a touchdown. WELL I TRIED TO ARREST HIM OUT THERE FOR SPEEDING AND HE GOT SO BAD I HAD TO DRAW MY CUN!

ATLANTA SCORES OVER TENNESSEE By E. J, Cowledge, Jr. Atlanta University and Tennessee State, two of the foremost contenders for the 1923 Southeastern gridiron laulets battled desperately, before a large crowd, in a thrilling though raggedly played contest the former winning 12 to 0. Tenn. State displayed a brilliant aerial attack which nearly offset the powerful rushing offensive of the winners. Leake, 1922 All-Southern center, recovered a fumble and sprinted 4 yards for a touchdown. Williams, Atlanta fullback, sprinted left end for the first touchdown. Atlanta was without the services of captain Lang, and "Tiny Red" Walker, who are on the hospital list. Other stars for A.W. were Yates, O. Watkins and J. Clay and for State Nance was the outstanding player.

For Sale at All Newsstands, 5c per copy Advertising Rates Furnished on Request "THE LINCOLN NEWS SERVICE" AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY A few weeks ago "The Lincoln News Service" made its appearance in Washington. With only a post office box as its address and on its releases no person's name by which to identify their authenticity, many editors have been at a loss to know the author or responsible person behind the "dope" issued by this "news" service. Then, again, everybody wondered why the secrecy. However, by close examination, we found that their releases were printed on the same paper as that used by the United States Government, and the memeographing is identical with that turned out by certain machines owned by the Government, and supposed to be used only for official purposes. Further investigation revealed the fact that "The Lincoln News Service" is under the direction of our "Old Kentucky" quill pusher, Phil H. Brown, of the Labor Department, and is "inspired" by the National Republican Committee. The Republicans have so utterly failed in their dealings with their brother in black that there has been a remarkable falling away from the G.O.P. The National Committee has seemingly heard some of the echoes and rumblings of disappointed and dissatisfied members of the "Black Phalanx." In order to stem the ebbing tide of dissatisfaction—if not actual revolt—an emergency call was sent to all the "Uncle Toms" and they were informed that they must do something to save the day. It was decided to issue a weekly segregated "colored" release, in addition to the regular release for the press in general. Now. Phil Brown being the only one of the few survivors of the "Old Guard" in the present employ of the National Committee, who has had newspaper experience, he was designated to prepare the "hash"; and thus was "The Lincoln News Service" inaugurated. The name of "Lincoln" was filched because it is the one name associated with the disreputable Republican party that might be used to charm the unthinkable and gullible Negro. During its short existence, "The Lincoln News Service" has sent out a lot of ballwash; but the current week's release caps the climax with the following paragraph on John Adams: (For the benefit of those who may not be able to place the "John Adams" referred to, we diffidently state that he is at present the chairman of the Republican National Committee.) However, the thing we set out to tell you in reference to his wonderful grasp of details is emphasized by an incident of last week. Two Governors waited along with a colored delegation. "Gentlemen," said Mr. Adams to the Governors, "You will wait for me, I am sure. My other friends are ahead of you." The colored delegation were ushered in and had their say to willing ears, It is the Adams way—sincerely Republican. Republicans are Republicans with Mr. Adams. He sees nothing with a jaundiced eye. On the contrary, he believes that every active unit of the party is entitled to equal consideration looking, of course, to the consummation of Republican ideals which means good government. As father confessor of variant party elements his position is fraught with many perplexities, which he meets with calm demeanor. Truly, he is a master of politics, carrying with his personal qualifications an inherent disposition for justice. Anyone who would hand out such tommyrot as that, and suppose that Negroes who think for themselves would swallow it, is certainly devoid of a knowledge of present day thought among this group. We do not believe John held "two governors waiting" while he held a conference with "my other friends." Secondly, John has no "way" that is "sincerely Republican," for the good reason that "there ain't no sich animal." The "Republican party" as it is constituted today is as far from being "sincerely Republican" as Ku Kluxism is from constituted government. If John Adams really "believes that every active unit of the party is entitled to equal consideration," and if "Republicans are Republicans with him," why is it that he and his Republican associates do not give the Negro a square deal in the Civil Service appointments to the Government positions for which they take the examinations and make the required percentage? Why did not Mr. Adams and his Republican associates see that a Negro was appointed as Register of the Treasury? Why do the Republicans in power issue and uphold segregation orders in the various departments? Why do Negroes constitute only one half of one per cent of those employed by the Republican administration when more than twenty-five per cent of those drafted to make the world safe for democracy were black men. Why is it that Mr Adams, and his Republican associates with their "equal consideration" pretense, have only one Negro in a responsible position in the Labor Department? (There is not a single Negro in a responsible position in the Department of Commerce, not one in the Department of State, the Navy, the War Department, the Department of the Interior nor the Post Office Department.) In the land bank division of the Department of Agriculture many Negroes could be employed with credit to the administration. Why does Mr. Adams and his Republican associates feel that one lone Negro attached to the Department of Justice is "equal consideration"? What about the Veterans Hospital at Tuskegee? If the Republicans believe in "equal consideration," why did they build a seagrated hospital, anyway? After building it, why select a Ku Klux Klanman to head it and permit him to institute such rules as to humiliate what few Negroes he may have under him? If segregation, disfranchisement and elimination from the Civil Service is present-day Republican "equal consideration," then God deliver us from Republicanism, and—from the ballywash of its "Lincoln News Service."

I. Hart and Co., 2849 Seventh avenue, is celebrating its sixth anniversary. This firm, which is run entirely by members of the Race, has had a most remarkable growth. Starting on October 6, 1917, as a partnership with $700 capital, it opened a little store at 140th street and Seventh avenue, which developed so rapidly that less than two years later the capitalization was increased to $6,000, and the lease of the adjoining store was made, thus blossoming out into a store twice the original size. Such success crowned this new venture that in the following year another store was opened at 2250 Seventh avenue, with an increased capitalization of $50,000. In the meanwhile, an annual dividend of 10 per cent was being paid to the stockholders. The business continued to develop, and on May 24 both stores were merged and moved to the present site, where it occupies the ground floor of the elegant new Renaissance Casino Building. Hart and Co. now has the distinction of owning the largest and handsomest store in Harlem, north of 125th Street. It is besides the largest Negro store in New York City and one of the finest in the United-States. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE NOVEMBER 3,1923 MUSIC FORUM By Wellington A. Adams Music Critic Honored "A rose to the living is more, If graciously given before The departed spirit has fled; One rose to the living is more, Than sumptuous wreaths to the dead." —K. Brooks Wins French honor! Herman Devries, music critic of the Chicago Evening American, has received the ribbon of the Legion of Honor in recognition of his services in promoting an interest in music, says the press. Well, that's unusual if not interesting to the average man, but it shows the modern trend of thought towards music. The music critic of today is a necessary factor in modern journalism, although but few colored journals realize their value. Intelligent race publications such as the New York Age, The Crisis, Chicago Defender, and a few others are sensible enough to include a music column among other leading features, but a larger number are still catering to many unworld's brightest luminaries making them mediocre. The muise critic must know his art, and sense the good from the bad in public repertoire thus assuming the role of benefactor. His status thus is fixed among the "big figures" of the worlds' brightest luminaries making "stars" over night and dashing others to pieces with his transcendent pen. The music critic deserves his place; deserves his honors while living, not dead; deserves larger place in the hearts of the people and deserves a wider space in our press. Herman Devries blazes the way for his fellow-workers in this highly prized honor as music critic. ORGANIZE MANDOLIN ORCHESTRA By Pereval W. Webster, Director Plectal Dept., Columbia Conservatory of Music It has been well said in one of the foregoing articles of this column that "music is contagious." Such a statement indeed seems to be true, as the very spirit of musical effort pervades the air. In common with this new era of musical activity, we wish to announce to the general public that the Plectal Department of the Columbia Conservatory of Music is going to afford music lovers of the mandolin class, two hours of free ensemble 1930 THE WOMEN'S HISTORY MUSEUM MISS CORNELIA LAMPTON, Pianist Cornella Lampton, one of the most gifted young pianists of America, and the first student to receive the bachelor's degree in music from Howard University Conservatory of Music, will appear in recital at the Lincoln Theatre December 12 at 5:15 p.m. Miss Lampton played the Grieg con- Reid' Phone North 12 Reid's Music Store Phone North 1234 11th & U Streets, N.

We want to help promote the spirit for musical study now begun through competent and efficient organization. Organized endeavor is the only way to gain the full benefit of our musical talent. Not only are we calling for the trained musician but particularly performers, and the beginners likewise are cordially welcome to join us. The white people have a wonderful mandolin (fretted) orchestra in this city and we should also have one. This is our opportunity so come and be helped as well as enjoy the music. First, our object with those who avail themselves of this opportunity will be to organize a full "Mandolin Orchestra." Such an organization would be a valuable musical asset to the community. Few of us have heard a full, well trained mandolin orchestra with the mandolins, handelas, mando-cellos, mando-basses, guitars, and so forth. Such an orchestra would be appreciated we believe and will find a prominent place in the musical life of our city. The first rehearsal will be held Saturday evening November 10, from 7:30 to 9:30 o'clock, continuing every Saturday night throughout the term at the Columbia Conservatory of Music, 1911 Ninth Street, Northwest. Register by postcard at once and be present on date designated. You are cordially invited and we shall expect you. Class is limited, so send us your name and address at once on a postal and oblige. Roland Hayes, noted tenor, arrived in New York City November 4th after a most successful trip abroad. He will appear in recital with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Friday and Saturday evenings November 16th and 17th in Symphony Hall, Boston, Mass. He is the first singer of his race to be thus honored by an American musical, constituency and it is a signal tribute to his native ability. Hayes is the greatest tenor and the leading singer of his race in the world today.

The Ukrainian National Chorus from Kieff, Max abinoff, director, appearing here this week, have added to their program of American folk-song, the levee songs of the Mississippi colored folk. What connection have the Colored Americans with the great transportation arteries of the country? Transportation is to the country what the arteries are to the body—it distributes the nation's production population and food and develops its resources. But we asked: "What connection have the colored people, as a class, with this massive industry?" The 136,065 Negroes employed by the railroads in the United States are the answer. Of this number thus employed are 2204 females, of whom 46 are flagwomen. There are also a number of maids on the fines equipped trains, while 2,058 colorer women are classed as laborers, probably car cleaners for the most part. Among the men there is naturally a greater diversity of occupations. Of the 133,861 males employed in this branch of industry, 55,921 are laborers; 20,201 are porters; 6,305 are firemen; 3,502 are boiler washers and hostlers and 2,887 are switchmen and flagmen. There are 1,181 foremen 616 yardmen, 475 baggagemen and 111 engineers; while in the administrative grades there are 3 steam railroad officials, 217 inspectors, 63 conductors 16 ticket and station agents and 7 freight agents.

He was born at Bordeaux, France, and he was educated in that country. Rene Maran is the first Negro to receive the Goncourt prize. The awarding of this prize was instituted in 1903 and bears its name in honor of de Goncourt, the famous French writer. The author of "Batouala" did not know his book was being considered by awarders of this coveted prize at Academie Goncourt. Receiving this prize distinguishes him as being the first man about whom so little is known, to receive it; former recipients having been persons well known in the literary world. "Batouala" and the book "Epithalaine" received equal votes for the prize. There being five votes for each book. The president of the Academie cast the deciding vote in favor of Maran's book. "Epithalaine" was written by a white writer, Pierre Chardonne. Maran is, also, a writer of verse which has been accepted by some of the leading periodicals of France. The book drew much attention because of the ill treatment and oppression of the black subjects of France in Africa by the French Colonial officers.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE NOVEMBER 3.1923 EMANCIPATION AND THE FREED IN AMERICAN SCULPTURE A Study in Interpretation By FREEMAN HENRY MORRIS M (Reprinted from above-named book, by permis By AN HENRY MORRIS MURRAY m above-named book, by permission of author) (Reprinted from above-named book, by permission of author) [NOTE]On account of the somewhat personal treatment of this particular topic, the wording of the original paper (lecture) is retained, unaltered.—Author.] The inscription on the reverse of the Shaw Monument was composed by President Eliot of Harvard University. It reads as follows: The White Officers taking life and honor in their hands, cast in their lot with men of a despised race, unproved, in war and risked death as inciters of servile insurrection if taken prisoners, besides encountering all the common perils of camp march and battle. The Black Rank and File volunteered when disaster clouded the Union cause, served without pay for eighteen months till given that of white troops, faced threatened enslavement if captured, were brave in action, patient under heavy and dangerous labors, and cheerful amid hardships and privations. Together they gave to the nation and the world undying proof that Americans of African descent possess the pride, courage and devotion of the patriot soldier, one hundred and eighty thousand such Americans enlisted under the Union Flag in MDCCCLXIII-MDCGCLXV The following is a brief extract from the long interpretation and discussion of this monument by William H. Dewn, in his book already mentioned. "That this noble, beautiful epic work is erected to commemorate the modest but worthy part taken in the war for the Union by Colonel Robert Gould Shaw and the officers and men of the Fifty-fourth Massachusetts Regiment, is accurate as far as it goes, but this is not all. The true instinct of the artist has shaped every line in his bronze to a typical and representative meaning, so that instead of being a memorial of one hero and his regiment alone, it assumes a national scope and significance, and becomes in a sense a monument to all like heroes and all kindred regiments. This could be done only because Shaw was a national type of the American hero, and his men were types of the unpretentious, self-sacrificing bravery and devotion of the colored volunteers." Concerning this monument, Charles C. Caffin says "American Masters of Sculpture," page 121: "Behind this group loom the tremendous issues of the war; they were present to the imagination of the sculptor and he has suggested them to ours. Hence the work is big with fatefulness, with a reference reaching far beyond the personages represented to the fate of a nation trembling in the balance. Ah! it is a great gift, this power to touch upon the fundamental, the essentially vital aspect of a matter, and by means so simple and of common knowledge. As he worked upon the memorial it would seem that Saint-Gaudens distrusted somewhat his possession of this faculty, for to increase the idealization he has introduced a figure of Victory floating above the head of the leader. It was not necessary and is scarcely in accord with the rest of the composition, introducing into the energy and concentration of the whole a some- suggested them work is big with reference reaching sonages repre- nation trem- h! it is a great lish upon the fun- lly vital aspect means so simple vledge.

Hill of Maryland states that "The U. S. does enforce all its laws with little difficulty, all its laws save the Volstead act." He seems to have overlooked the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments as previously mentioned by the Tribune. The Governor of Kansas last week in the conference of Governors held here, suggested that while discussing law enforcement, the menacing K.K.K. problem in the South should be considered along with prohibition. Immediately the Southern governors started a howl and the matter was nothing. Mr. Brisbane writes, "If we (the U.S.) mind our own business and realize that we cannot attend to our affairs and Europe's also, this country will be all right for a long time." This is very true; that is, if we mind our own business. It seems as if this Government cannot make up its mind to do this. It overlooks a menacing Ku (Continued from last week) By H. C. P.

It is as follows: T stands for Truth which we all should know; R stands for Race, to which much love we owe; I stands for Interest, so more letters we'll send; B stands for Better we find in the end; U stands for Unity, as one we must be; I stands for Independence for which we must strive; T stands for Tribunite, a true one with pride; E stands for Eagerness for educated lives. what quavering note. Yet, to judge by my own experience, the sense of jar yields to indifference; one loses consciousness of this figure in the grandeur and elevation of the whole. But, if this is the experience of others it tends to prove how unnecessary was its introduction; and, further, one is inclined to resent it as partaking too much of the obviousness which would occur to a smaller sculptor." Mr. Caffin's view that the figure of the floating "Victory" is not necessary and really introduces a jarring note, is shared by other writers; but most writers approve its presence. Personally, it seems to me that his criticism is wholly just. Perhaps, however, it is because this panel has for me a special, almost personal, appeal, that this figure seems to be superfluous. It can scarcely be held that it contributes anything to the grandeur and nobility of the work as a whole. Yet I am ready to concede that for many persons, perhaps, this figure—which is sometimes called the "Death Angel"—may be the starting point of the appealing pathos and elevated melancholy which after a time appear to permeate and suffuse the entire composition, completely purging it of every suggestion of bravado and vain-glory. Without this figure, perhaps our admiration would not be less; but it may be that there would be a partial loss of that wonderful power—of which Mr. Taft speaks—"to bring dimness to the eyes and a grip to the heart." Enough has been said, but perhaps after you shall have heard, you will pardon me if I close with a personal reference; for, aside from its artistic preeminence and its historic merits and associations, this memorial is particularly dear to me. Many of the "devoted, doomed men" of this regiment and of the 55th its companion regiment, though they served under the flag of Massachusetts—dear old Massachusetts—enlisted in my own state, were Ohio "boys," and were friends, neighbors and relatives of me and mine. And as I stood before this halloween monument in Boston, in the twilight: stillness of a summer evening, struggling to-drive the dimness from my eyes and the grip from my heart, I felt myself strangely moved; and a flood of memories swept over my mind. Some were sweetly sad, and some were inspiring and glorious. Particularly did one tall, handsome fellow push into my memory. Of course I do not remember it, but I have been Dear Editor: Kluk problem in the South which has finally claimed the attention of all our leading newspapers. One interesting outlook appeared in the Herald on Monday when it published the reply of Dr. Louis Edelman, organizer National Suffrage League, to Wizard Evans. He concludes his answer by saying: "The American public has been raised and trained upon fair treatment to all and no matter what a small group of men may do, the masses will never tolerate RACE HATRED." Very good if true; but how true? Speaking of drug store owners calls to mind the fact that drug store owners have a hard time when they get new drug clerks. Every new clerk insists that new brands of candies be secured. Clerks should be considerate though, and perhaps after a few weeks their girls will like the grades of candies the boss carries: As Dunbar said, "Who Knows?" Considering our stupidities the amazing fact is that we get along as well as we do. told, on authority that I cannot doubt that on that beautiful April morning in 1863, when the boys left our town, while the good-byes were being said, and tears and cheers and prayers were mingled, this stalwart fellow gently pulled aside a slip of a girl and said to her quietly: "Now, Katie, don't forget; you are to wait; and if I get back—you know." The most of our boys, pitiful to tell, did not return. The bloody ramparts of Wagner, the stubborn stand at Olustee, and the tragic mistake of Honey Hill took heavy toll. But the boy who whispered to Katie, though he went through these; and though in the lurid twilight-darkness of that memorable evening at Wagner when his beloved Colonel and so many of his comrades perished, he received a grievous wound; and though he sustained another and still more grievous wound on that awful night at Honey Hill where he and many of his comrades were necessarily abandoned for the enemy to pick up or bury; and though, while suffering from wounds, he spent weary, anxious months in Andersonville, that most dreadful of prison pens—passing more than once through the very valley and the shadow—yet, though no longer stalwart and handsome, yet, he came back, and he found that Katie had waited. And I am gratified to tell you that he still lives, and Katie, too; and often do I see my own little daughter put her arms lovingly around this old veteran's neck and call him, "Grandpa."

A shipment by freight today beats the "fast mail" of 1850. Remember the thrill you used to get when you received a telegram or a special delivery letter?

Because so many Tribunites make bad jobs of talking over a telephone I am publishing this item taken from an almanac published by the American Telephone and Telegraph Company: "The warning to "speak close to the transmitter" is based on careful scientific tests of voice transmission. "The proper distance between the lips of the speaker and the mouthpiece of the telephone is not more than one-half inch. If, for example, you increase this distance to two 6 6 6 DRAWING CONTEST (Drawing Series, No. 16) You are to take the figure "6" as it appears above and make it a part of a picture. For the best drawing a prize of five theater tickets to Dunbar Theater No mother need feel the least fear in permitting her daughter to enter this contest. The chaperone for which all expenses are also provided, is to be selected by "Miss Washington" herself, and will therefore provide all the necessary safeguards any parent or guardian could desire. The big contest closes November 19. All pictures must be in by this date. Those desiring to enter are advised not to wait until near the end of the contest for then the Scurlock Studio will possible be crowded and some potential winner may not be able to arrange for her sitting. "The "Beauty Contest" is open to all women and girls, married or single, over sixteen years of age, residing in the District of Columbia or attending Howard University.

At distances of over one-half inch, such sounds as 'b, p, d, t, f, z' are transmitted poorly. If closer than one-half inch, nasal sounds like 'm' and 'n' do not enter the transmitter properly." Try to observe the suggestions made here, and I am sure that you will receive very good results. Some fellows expect opportunity to make love to them. Happiness is success; misery is failure.

The show is in two acts. The story of the play tells of Zack and Lucindar Wheat who, at the death of their father, come into possession of the family plantation. Zack's pal, Bud Johnson persuades him to risk his share of the inheritance in a theatrical venture, notwithstanding Lucinda's protest. The partners organize a small company, Bud is manager, Zack the star tragedian, Sudds White, comedian, and Sadie, whose parentage is unknown, a ward of the Wheat family, the leading lady.
