FIGHTS SEGREGATION ANOTHER SUIT IN BLOOMINGDALE First in Local Circulation. Vol. 4, No. 26 FIG Republi ANOTHER DEPARTMENTAL SEGREGATION MUST GO NOW The colored electorate, with but slight defection, having supported the Republican party in the election last week notwithstanding the importunities of the Democratic party and the La Follette forces, will insist upon relief from the ills from which the Negro suffers, as well as recognition by appointment to responsible offices, as the price of his continued allegiance. Civil Service Reforms Foremost in this program will be the question of civil service reforms. A detremined fight will be waged for the substitution of the finger-print method of identification for the photographic. The finger print system has already been adopted by the Army and Navy. Its latest use by the Government is in the payment of the bonus to soldiers and sailors of the world war. It is also used by the Post Office Department as a means of identifying deposition in the postal savings system. It has been adopted by practically every police department in the world as a more certain means of identification than the photograph, and it will be pointed out to Government officials that there is no reason why it should not be adopted by the Civil Service Commission. The requirement of a photograph to accompany an application to take a civil service examination is regarded as an effective means of discerning colored persons and consequently discriminating against them in the certification of eligibles for appointment. An effort will also be made to have the civil service rules amended. At present, after an applicant passes an examination he or she is certified to an executive department for appointment three times, and if not selected, no further certification is made. In the case of colored applicants this works a hardship. Appointment clerks will not select a colored person unless there is a vacancy in a division composed entirely of colored persons. But few colored persons, therefore, are ever appointed to clerkships. Persons interested would have the rules so amended that in all cases selections shall be made with sole reference to merit and fitness and without regard to race, color or creed. Any violation of this provision by any officer concerned in making selections or appointments would be cause for the immediate removal of such officer from the Government service. Some favor making the civil service laws more rigid. They would make ti incumbent upon the appointing officer to select the person highest on the list and do away with the certification of the three highest eligibles. They would also lodge the power to appoint in the Civil Service Commission. Segregation Every vestige of segregation must go or the party responsible for its continuance will be held to a strict accountability. That is one of the determinations of the colored electorate as a result of the last campaign. In the fight against segregation, the Treasury Department will most likely the center of attack; for seg- (Continued on page 3) The Washington Tribune HTS ican Le R SUIT IN Freeman Admits Shooting Man on Back of Car Claims Self Defense; Says Officer Was First to Fire Chief Justice McCoy, Wednesday, directed a verdict of not guilty in the case of John A. Gross, who was one of the three defendants on trial on a charge of first degree murder in connection with the killing of Policeman Raymond C. Leisinger. Gross was immediately discharged. As soon as the Government rested, counsel on behalf of Gross made a motion for a directed verdict. He pointed out to the court that there was not sufficient evidence against Gross to warrant the jury to pass upon his guilt or innocence. He contended that Gross was simply at the scene, but in no wise aided or abetted in the commission of the alleged crime. Government counsel agreed, and the Chief Justice granted the motion for a verdict of not guilty. Similar motions were made by counsel on behalf of James T. Holmes and Harry W. Freeman. They were denied. Freeman Testines Attorney John H. Wilson made an impressive opening statement on behalf of the defendant Freeman. He told the jury that he would prove that Freeman shot in self defense. Freeman took the stand in his own behalf. In a wavering voice he told the jury of the events that led to the killing of the police officer. He gave his age as 21 years and said that he had lived at 1618 Vermont Avenue, Northwest, since birth. He testified that he met Holmes, Gross and Helen Catherine Jackson before day on August 28 at the corner of Seventh and S Streets, Northwest. He tried to purchase some whiskey from them, he said, but failed. They then drove off. They stopped on P Street near North Capitol, and he and Holmes went into an alley and bought a pint of whiskey. After returning to the car the men drank, and they drove off. As they were driving along North Capitol, he testified he saw an object but could not tell who or what it was and felt the car sink on the right hand side. He looked out the back, he said, and saw the form of a man clinging to the car. A shot rang out which deafened him, he said. Holmes asked what that was and he replied that somebody on the back was shooting. Holmes handed him a gun, he said, and told him, "take this and don't let him kill us." He stood and trembled. The man on the back fired twice in rapid succession, another shot rang out, and just as they turned into I Street, another was fired, and he then returned the fire. Freeman told the jury that the only reason he shot was because he was afraid of being shot. He said he gave himself up to Detective Jackson. After his arrest he was carried to detective headquarters where he made a written statement and also a verbal statement, in which (Continued on page 3) WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1924 SUE ON COVENANT THAT RUNS WITH THE LAND Whites Accuse Fox Company with Using Stenographer as Straw Another suit to prohibit the sale of property in the Bloomingdale section to colored persons has been instituted in the equity division of the District Supreme Court. Henry K. and Mary F. Murphy, husband and wife, who live at 42 Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest, seek to enjoin Miss Marietta V. Scarborough, Edmund K. Fox and William M. Hicks from transferring the property known as No. 1921 First Street, Northwest, to any Colored person. Straw Woman In their bill, the plaintiffs say they are advised and believed that Fox and Hicks, both of whom are engaged in the real estate business, have negotiated the sale of this property to a colored person, whose identity is unknown to the plaintiffs. Miss Scarborough, it is said, is a stenographer in the office of Fox Real Estate. They allege that she is acting solely in the capacity of a straw woman for Fox and Hicks. According to the petition, in October last, the heirs of Mary A. Stack, deceased, conveyed this property to Miss Scarborough. The plaintiffs aver that title to this property was taken by her for the accommodation and convenience of Fox and Hicks. Covenant The plaintiffs allege that ever since the platting and survey of the subdivision in which this property is situated, there has appeared, without interruption, a covenant in every deed of conveyance. It is as follows: "Subject to the covenant running with the land that said lot or any improvements that may be erected thereon shall never be used or occupied for any purpose by Negroes or presons of the Negro race, or having Negro blood." Murphy and his wife claim that the deed from the heirs of Mary A. Stack to Miss Scarborough contains this covenant. Irreparable Damage They alleged that it is the purpose of Miss Scarborough immediately to convey a fee simple title to the property to a colored person for occupancy as a home. Unless restrained, they say, such a transfer will cause irreparable damage, loss and injury to them and other residence owners in the vicinity. They claim that the value of property in the neighborhood will materially decrease by reason of occupancy of this property by a colored person and that the environment and surroundings of said area will become low and said area will not be a fit and proper place wherein white people may live. The suit is filed through Attorney Henry Gilligan. He presided at the meeting of the citizens of the Bloomingdale section at the St. Martin Parish Hall sometime ago. It appears that he is the chief instigator of suits to prohibit colored persons from living in the Bloomingdale section. SEGREGATES SOLDIERS' NAMES ON TABLETS Discrimination in a new form broke out at the office of the Register of the Treasury on Armistice Day. A tablet bearing the names of all former employees of that office who paid the supreme sacrifice in the World War was to be unveiled and dedicated. It turned out that two tablets had been procured—one bearing the names of the white boys and the other of colored boys who had died in the service of their country. The colored employees vigorously protested to Harley V. Spellman, the Register of the Treasury, against the unveiling of the separate tablets. They told him that no color line had been drawn upon the battlefields of France. At first, he was obstinate. Then, he yielded to a compromise to the effect that he would go ahead and have one tablet made containing all five names but the colored employees would have to pay for it. The estimated cost is about $125. SUBMIT DEMANDS TO G.O.P.LEADERS FOR ACTION SUBMIT DEMANDS TO G.O.P.LEADERS FOR ACTION New York City—Close on the heels of the record breaking landslide of President Coolidge, comes a demand from the Negro leaders who corralled a large share of the Negroes' vote for the G. O. P., for a more and just representation in the spoils of victory. Attorney William C. Matthews, National Organizer for the Republican Campaign Committee, made public last week seventeen demands that the Colored leaders are looking forward to being granted them by the Coolidge administration. The new program is as follows: 1. Representation in the Diplomatic Corps. 2. The establishment of a stable representative government in the Virgin Islands by act of Congress. 3. The appointment of an Under-Secretary of State. 4. The appointment of a Civil Service Commissioner. 5. The appointment of an Assistant Postmaster General. 6. Restoration of the office of Register of the Treasury to the race. 7. Appointment of a Minister to Haiti and a Consul General to Port au Prince. 8. Appointment of an Assistant Attorney General. 9. Representation upon the Railroad Board of Review; the Farm Credits Bureau, and in the Department of Commerce. 10. Recognition of our women in the public service. 11. West Point and Annapolis appointments. 12. Appointments in the Veterans Bureau and Regional Districts. 13. Appointments in the Educational Department. 14. The 92nd and 93rd Divisions be re-allocated as combat divisions. 15. Abolition of segregation in the government service. 16. Approval of Liberian loan. 17. Without attempting to determine the method to be employed, it is urged that the government take suitable cognizance of the crime of lynching in the United States.

Price 5 Cents MONSTER CROWD EXPECTED HERE FOR BIG GAME MONSTER CROWD EXPECTED HERE FOR BIG GAME The annual Thanksgiving game between Lincoln University of Pennsylvania, and Howard University of Washington, has come to be known as "The Football Classic of the Year" among colored colleges. The occasion draws alumni and friends of the two institutions from all over the country. Past attendance, together with present demand for tickets, affords a conservative estimate of twenty-five thousand spectators who will attend the game on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 27th, at the American Legaue Park in this city. Though Lincoln and Howard are bitter football rivals, the finest kind of spirit prevails between the two institutions and among the visiting throng. Thus, the social features in connection with the game are the greatest of the year. The two universities combine in the promotion of a Grand Reunion Reception, the proceeds from which are divided between the two schools as a contribution to their athletic funds. This year, the reception will be held on the evenings of Wednesday, November 26th and Thursday, November 27th, in the beautiful New Dining Hall on the Howard University Campus. The center of social activity during the Lincoln-Howard game will be the Dining Hall and Campus of the University. Arrangements have been completed for the Homecoming of the General Alumni of Howard University, reduced railroad rates having been granted to members of the Association throughout the United States. The Homecoming program will consist of a "Pep Test" on Wednesday evening; a business session of the Association on Thursday morning; the award of the "H" to all members of Varsity teams prior to and including 1915, followed by the Lincoln-Howard game; a meeting of the Executive Committee Friday morning, and the final session Friday afternoon. The University Campus is to be illuminated during the Homecoming sessions with a huge electric sign containing the word "Welcome." Arrangements for the reunion are in charge of a Reception Committee appointed by the General Alumni Association, acting in co-operation with the Howard University Board of Athletic Control and representatives of Lincoln University. Bob Church Ignores White Leader Memphis, Tenn., Nov. 10—Robert R. Church, stormy petrel of Tennessee Republican politics, struck back at Hal H. Clements, state chairman who has been a leader in the "lily white" fight to oust him from membership on the state committee. On the eve of the election, Mr. Church snubbed his state chairman at a Republican rally. He ignored him as completely as if he were not present. Mr. Church was presiding. Clements attended the meeting and tried to say a word to the so-called "black and tan" faction. Church refused to recognize him, ignored his request for a few minutes in which to make a speech and abruptly adjourned the meeting at the conclusion of Roscoe Conkling Simmons's speech. Clements only bit his lip to stay the words he was not permitted to speak. The snubbing of no less a personage than the state chairman himself was Church's little stap-back at Clements for the latter's aid in the "lily-white" attempt to kick him off the state committee.

Women's Dinner at Howard Is Big Success Over three hundred women students, faculty and alumnae gathered in the dining hall of Howard University on Friday evening, November 7, for the third annual Howard women's dinner. The custom of having the annual women's dinner was inaugurated three years ago by Dean Lucy D. Slowe and this has come to be the most important woman's function on the campus. Women students, two hundred and fifty strong, led by the marshal, marched into the Dining Hall singing their college songs and giving lusty cheers for "good old Howard." The women, faculty and alumnae at places of honor in the Dining Hall, applauded the marching students to the echo as they entered. The program committee arranged a most unique series of stunts by the various classes. The prize stunt was the sophomore orchestra, under the direction of Ellen Hill. Miss Hill's baton, a brand new broom with a big red bow, waved gracefully over her players whose instruments of combs, tin pans and bicycle pumps made music, "loud and clear." Baltimore, Washington and Plainfield, and New Jersey, were represented in the list of graduates. Everybody voted this dinner the best of all. Anita Turpeau, chairman of the committee of arrangements; Ophelia Settle, and Xenia Sedgwick, cheer leader, together with the girls who worked with them, deserve great credit for the success of the affair. DR. SCOTT SPEAKS IN NEW YORK New York City—Dr. Emmett J. Scott, in an address here Sunday November 9th at the opening "Big Meeting" of the 135th Street Branch Y. M. C. A., urged Negro citizens to higher ideal of civic duty. Pioneer Judge Dies in Denver Casper, Wyo.—The recent death of Judge Thomas C. Williams, colored attorney who served here as justice of th peace in 1888 to 1899, and who is believed to be the first colored man to have held an elective office in Wyoming, has revived memories of the early pioneer days among many of the old timers. Judge Williams was in his 77th year at the time of his death. Judge Williams went to Denver on the eve of the Civil War. At this time Denver was nothing but a crude huddle of log shacks. He later left Denver and went to Wyoming where he remained until about 25 years when he returned to Denver to spend his last days. He was an ex-barber and educated himself. "In the fall of 1888, Judge Williams was nominated for justice of the peace on the Republican ticket, and was elected. He had the distinction of being the first colored man ever elected to any office in Wyoming. His nominating was considered something of a joke by many people, but during the two years he served, several important cases came before him and all parties agreed that he conducted his court with dignity and wisdom. Asks Court for Estate of Husband Through her attorney, Mrs. Rosetta Hawkins, alias Rosetta Kager, has filed a motion to dismiss the suit of Mrs. Hattie Kager for recovery of property of the late James Kager, husband of the latter. In her motion to dismiss, Mrs. Hawfiled a motion to dismiss, Mrs. Hawkins contends that Mrs. Hattie Kager as the administratrix of the estate of James Kager is not entitled to institute the proceedings. She also holds that the matters alleged in the bill of complaint do not entitle the parties to any equitable relief. She says that Sarah M. Kager, Mary L. Kager and James Kager, Jr., who are joined as plaintiffs, have no title or interest in the subject matter and are unnecessary and improper parties. The bill of complaint sets out that James Kager died on September 17, 1924, possessed of certain real estate, the legal title to which is in the name of James Kager and Rosetta Kager, his wife, as joint tenants. Mrs. Hattie Kager alleges that she is the lawful wife of the deceased, al- though they had been separated for several years on account of marital difficulties. She denies that Rosetta Hawkins is or ever was his wife. She alleges that at the time of the relationship began between her husband and the other woman, Rosetta Hawkins had a husband who has since died. She says she is entitled to be decreed the real estate as the surviving joint tenant. She is represented by Attorney Perri W. Frisby. Freeman Admits Shooting Man on Car (Continued from page one.) he accused Gross of firing the fatal shot, he frankly stated. The reason he made these statements he said was because he was afraid of being beaten. He related in substance the statements he had made, but denied that at any time he recognized the identity of the person on the back of the car. He also stated that no one in the car on that night used the word, "police-man." The Government waived cross examination of him. Holmes Mute Earlier in the case Chief Justice McCoy had ruled that the Nash Touring car, through the back of which the fatal shots were fired, was inadmissible as evidence against Holmes. He held that it might be used against Freeman and Gross. He based this ruling upon the contention that there had been an illegal search and seizure of this automobile by the officers. The testimony showed that they had commanded the lessor of the premises in which the car was stored to open the doors and had seized the car without a search warrant. At the time no warrant had been issued for the arrect of Holmes. Inasmuch as no constitutional right of Freeman and Gross had been violated, the Chief Justice ruled, they could not complain and it might be used in evidence against them. Testimony regarding a .45 caliber Colt revolver found in the loft of the building in which the car was found was ordered stricken from the record. It might belong to anyone, the court ruled. Prominent Nashville Preacher Here Rev, Preston Taylor, president of the National Convention of Disciples and pastor of the Lee Avenue Christian Church, Nashville, Tenn., has been conducting for the past two weeks, a grand revival at the 12th Street Christian Church. These services have been highly successful and will be conducted Sunday night, November 16th. The closing sermon will be preached by Rev. Taylor at 11:30 Sunday morning. Rev. Taylor is a forceful speaker and a great religious and business leader. THE AMBASSADORS TO GIVE BIG DANCE The Ambassadors, a social organization among the younger set of which Mr. Gihon A. Conrad, Mr. Fred Whitfield, Mr. A. E. Cunningham and Mr. Wm. A. Graves are the leaders, are planning to present to the dancing public, one of the most unique dance programs ever given here. The Ambassadors will give a mammoth breakfast dance at the beautiful Murray Casino, Thanksgiving morning. This affair will be one of the most exclusive in Washington. Many special novelties have been planned for the occasion. The close proximity of this dance salon to the American League Park where the great football classic will be played, will enable the dancers to dance right up to the time of the game which will not begin until 2:00 p.m. DR. SCARBOROUGH VISITS Dr. W. S. Scarborough, of Wilberroce, Ohio, spent several days here this week. He was en route to New York where he will remain until about Thanksgiving. Dr. Scarborough called at the White House Monday and felicitated President Coolidge upon his election. He also visited members of the Ohio congressional delegation while here. Departmental Segregation Must Go Now (Continued from page 1) regation in several of its bureaus has been most pronounced. This is particularly true of the office of the Register of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Bureau. In the former beaver board walls were maintained until recently. In the latter there have been two specific cases of discrimination on account of color brought to public view. An investigation of the executive departments and bureaus listed below shows that segregation prevails in them as follows: Office of the Register of the Treasury, there are two segregated sections—one with 30 employees and the other with 14. Navy Department—one segregated section of 18 colored employees, as well as a segregated lunch room. There is segregation in other departments, but no investigation was made. The colored electorate expects the Coolidge administration to give the race relief from segregation and discrimination. Its vote in the Presidential election was a vote of confidence that he would do so.

Normal and Industrial School eleven was the opponent. The Bison resorted to the overhead game in an effort to defeat the Virginians but only 6 out of 17 passes were completed and they came near mid-field. The game was well-officiated and clean and hard-fought throughout. Captain Dokes and Smith, tackles and Long and Campbell, ends, Howard regulars were out of the game nursing injuries. Tuskegee Nears Southeast Title (By F. A. Walker) Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 8—A monster crowd, estimated at 3,000 spectators, saw the Crimson Hurricane go down in defeat before the Tuskegee Tiger in one of the hardest fought battles ever played on Atlanta Collegiate gridirons. With the Tiger having disposed of its most serious opposition, Tuskegee looms up as 1924 Champions of the Southeast. Although defeated, the Crimson Hurricane demonstrated its superiority over the Tigers in the running game, making 14 first downs for a yardage of 267, while Tuskegee annexed 4 first down for a total of 63 yards from scrimmage. Tuskegee gained in all of their exchanges of punts, Stevenson averaging 45 yards on each of his boots. HAMPTON AND SHAW IN CORELESS TIE Hampton, Va., November 8-As the long shadows of encoaching darkness came creeping across Armstrong Field this afternoon the Shaw "Bears" and the Hampton "Seasiders" stood face to face at the end of a scoreless game of football waged through four quarters of some of the most dogged and oftimes brilliant football that has ever been played on Armstrong Field. The final count was'0 to 0. Hampton early in the first quarter had an excellent chance to score a touchdown, but after three attempts to advance through the line a forward pass failed. Several good chances came to both teams, especially to Hampton to snatch victory out of the jaws of defeat. Numerous opportunities for field goals came, but none were accurate in the face of the strong wind and strong opposition. The teamwork of both teams practically overshadowed any individual play, but the work of Gann, Dunlap, Jones, and Lee for Hampton was outstanding for that team. Mitchell was the star for Shaw's team. BEN TAYLOR IS AGENT FOR COAT COMPANY Ben Taylor, former manager of the Washington Potomac, has accepted the city agency for the Comer "All Weather" Coat Company. Taylor reports that he is doing a rushing business with his coats which are guaranteed to stand up under any weather condition.

The matter of the one-year rule will likely come up at the C. I. A. A. meeting. Lincoln Crushes St. Paul Warriors (BY H. SCOTT) Baltimore, Md., Nov. 8—In a rather slow and listless affair the Lincoln Lions scored an easy victory over the St. Paul Tigers at Maryland Park here today, 33 to 0. The Tigers started off with two first downs in rapid succession but failed to "carry on." In short order the Lincoln linemen were on to the powerful shift used by the Virginians and their ground-gaining via. this route was ended. Lincoln's first touchdown came when Crudop blocked and recovered a St. Paul kick behind the goal. The Lincoln captain followed this up with two beautiful field goals. Goodman added two touchdowns after an intercepted pass by Morgan and a St. Paul fumble put the ball in easy scoring distance. Taylor intercepted a pass and dashed 40 yards for the final score. The work of Crudop, Brown, and Byrd was slightly the more brilliant for Lincoln but Coach Young used his entire second stringers the last quarter. St. Paul undoubtedly played far below form. Walker, the Tigers' best back was suffering from an injury and was of no value to the team. The attendance was only fair. Practically all of the spectators were from outside of Baltimore, not a hundred Baltimore folks were on hand. Lincoln(33) St. Paul(0) Henry ..... L. Myers ..... L.G.... J. Williams Morgan .....

Long runs by Boffman and Shields put the ball a short distance from the goal and Jackson carried it over and added the extra point for the Panthers' first score. Passes to Gross, Shields and Corrothers with the latter on the receiving end of the final, accounted for another score. Lanier went over for Seminary's initial score while a 30-yard field goal by Whedbee added three more points. Shields crossed the line again for Union in the last quarter for another touchdown. Seminary ran its total up 2 more points by downing Boffman behind the Union's goal for a line safety. ARMSTRONG SCORES AT WILL AGAINST MANASAS. AGAINST MANASSAS The Armstrong Football Team took the measure of the Manassas Team Monday by the score of 31-6 at the American League Baseball Park. Manassas's lone score was made by the interception of a pass. Manassas was not able to score a single first down, while Armstrong made 16. The outstanding stars of the game were Dorsey, McCoy and Captain Allen, who made a touchdown from the 50-yard line.

Flowers weighed 167, Hays 160, while Clements tipped the scales at 185. Tiger had been previously scheduled to meet Jackie Clarke but after an injury received in training had forced the latter to cancel the engagement, Flowers requested that two scrappers be brought on. MORRIS-BROWN STILLL UNABLE TO BE MOREHOUSE TO BEAT MOREHOUSE Morris Brown failed to break down the tradition that exist between her and Morehouse College losing 6 to 0. During the many years that these schools have been playing football together, Morehouse has never lost to Morris Brown. The lone tally of the game came in the third period of the game. The Morehouse backs gave the spectators a few minutes of spectacular football when they carried the ball from their 25-yard line to Morris Brown's 1-foot line in three minutes. In the first half of the game Morris Brown's offense was slightly better than that of Morehouse. Yet she was unable to get within 10 yards of Morehouse's goal. Edwards's kicking was not up to form. The Morehouse forward rushed him too much. Cotton was star for Morris Brown. Lockhart was good throughout the game. Archer's 65-yard dash was the longest run of the game. The Morehouse line showed up good when they battered the heavier and more experienced line of Morris Brown to a stand still. Capt., "Key" West played an unusually good game. He was ably assisted by Greegs, center, Sherman and Cook.

DR. ALLEN MADE A FARCE OF THE LINCOLN-ST. PAUL GAME In the past years, the writer has waited until after the football season to delve into the subject of officials. But after hearing of the poor work of officials in the Wilberforce-Howard game and noting the incompetence of the referee in the Lincoln-St. Paul encounter, we can not refrain from a few remarks on this subject at this period. The trouble in the latter game was all with the referee. This was perhaps the first game that Dr. Allen had refereed in the past five years. He showed clearly that he was out of place in this job. His poor work might have escaped unnoticed had he been serving in one of the minor positions. His greatest error was to blow his whistle at the wrong time and rob "Jazz" Byrd of a 88-yard run. A referee must know his business to keep a game moving, but unfortunately Dr. Allen did not. Unquestionably there is a shortage of referees. The public generally blames the referee for every penalty called in a game and for that reason many officials are not anxious for the referee's job. In our opinion, every official sanctioned for a C. I. A. A. a game should be qualified to serve as referee, umpire, field judge or linesman. Of course, a man may be better fitted for one of the minor jobs but he certainly should be able to make a more satisfactory showing than Dr. Allen did last Saturday. The officials must take most of the blame for the slowness of our games. Seldom does a game end under two and one-half hours. Too much time is allowed teams for signals and questioning of decisions and rules. A short penalty now and then would certainly put more speed and pen in our games. CAN LINCOLN TURN BACK SHAW'S ELEVEN? The Lincoln Lions face their final threat of defeat prior to the "classic," when they clash with Harold Martin's Shaw eleven today. It will take all the strength that Coach Young can muster to turn back the Tarheelers. A placement goal by Crudop is about all the edge we can give the Lions. Union meets Va. Normal today with the danger of having a perfect record marred. Va. Seminary gave Union much trouble with the overhead game. The Petersburg aggregation's running attack might decide the affair. However, we string the Panthers. St. Paul gets a breathing spell by taking on St. Augustine. Va. Seminary tackles a tough foe at Livingstone but "Whirlwind" Johnson's warriors apparently are improving with every battle. With the Southern title safely tucked in the Tuskegee trophy room, the chief interest in football in the South now is for the championship of the city of Atlanta, Georgia. Morris Brown is out of the running but Morehouse and Atlanta must meet and the game is sure to be a thriller. Atlanta will take the Fisk aggregation into camp today while Morehouse opposes Talladega. Next week we will tell the readers of this column why we believe Howard will defeat Lincoln after her three unsuccessful attempts. CARTER'S ELIGIBILITY IS STILL UNDER DISCUSSION "Cute" Carter, Howard's former star quarterback, in the writer's opinion is a victim of circumstances. Carter served in the Howard backfield in 1919 under the late Coach Robinson. His phenomenal punting was the only feature of the scoreless "classic" with Lincoln that year. In 1920 "Cute" won a regular berth on the Howard eleven that defeated Lincoln, 42 to 0. In 1921 Carter was disciplined by the university authorities for a misdemeanor, the nature of which we need not discuss. He was barred from playing football. During the Thanksgiving Day game, 1921, a note was sent to Dr. Morrison with the forged signature of Dr. Durkee, stating that Carter's suspension from football had been lifted. Carter had been working out with the squad all the year and was in perfect trim. Doneghy received an injury that forced him out of the game, and the Coach at once sent for Carter and put in the Howard backfield. Not until long after the game was it learned that the signature on the note was forged. Howard later apologized to Lincoln for having used Carter. He was refused a letter and naturally his brief period in the game did not count against him as a football year, according to C. I. A. A. rules. Last year Carter did not represent the Blue and White although eligible. It was reported that Lincoln's request that his name be omitted from the eligible group was adhered to. Carter has been out with the squad while his eligibility for this season has been under discussion. No decision has been rendered as yet. It has been learned that his case is now up to the C. I. A. A. officials. Why so much time has been spent in deciding this case we can not see. There is no question but that according to C. I. A. A. rules Carter should be playing on the Howard eleven. Marshall, Texas, Nov. 8—In a spectacular battle, the Prairie View eleven triumphed over the Wiley Wildcats by a score of 3-0. With one minute to play Coach Huscles sent Sanders in for Pierson and the rookie back immediately proceeded to drive the oval between the uprights for the only score of the game.

Two big features of the game were Pierson's thirty-five-yard run and Taylor's fifty yard sprint in the third quarter, being stopped on the Prairie View five-yard line. The punting of Owen, the veteran Prairie View back, and Dodd, the Wiley rookie, was sensational. Despite the fact that several of Wiley's first string men, including Orange, premier punter and drop-kicker of conference were on the bench as result of injuries sustained in Texas College game and Southern University encounter the Wildeats did not show any appreciable weakness.

For Sale ‘at All Newsstands, 5¢ per copy Advertising Rates Furnished on Request THE MATTHEWS PLANK William C. Matthews, National Organizer for the Republican Campaign Committee, comes to the front with a plan to make a decided change for the better in the Negro’s political and econom- ical aspects. Surely we can consider his plan for its real worth and ongratulate him on his effort to make the country better for his having lived in it. The Negro is not less in need of virile, militant leadership to-day than he has been heretofore. Indeed, he is more in need of such leadership, lest the present state of affairs so embed itself in the policy of the democracy as to neces- sitate a revolution to remove it. Any plan for the common good is worthy of the Negro’s most careful consideration. The plan, in general, has a national aspect, whichsthe Negro may approve with a few reservations; for, he has a constitutional right and, therefore, should expect to hold any and all offices in this republic. Untiring efforts ghould be brought to bear in in- teresting him in the local governments that these may make him proficient in the national legislative halls. Negro schools and colleges could work wonders in this direction if they exercised one-fifth as much energy in things political as they do in things ministerial and medical. : But, the plan of setting aside certain offices as ones to be occu- pied by the Negro, should never be allowed to show itself. Seg- regation has become as distastful to the Ametican Negro as hem- lock, yet in “article six” Mr, Matthews advocates a federal recog- nition of the office of Register of the Treasury as an office of the Race, and, in “article fifteen,” he maintains that there should be no “segregation inthe Government Service.” Such inconsisten- cies come as a result of the lack of high and peculiar training. In “article seven,” there is a duplication of “article one.” For, if the Negro is given “representation in the Diplomatic Corps,” it is logical to Geet him to be a “minister to Haiti or a Consul General to Port au Price.” It would be far more satisfactory should the United States Marines be withdrawn and the nation restored to autonomy. Haitians in the main are a thrifty peo- ple, quite capable of self-government if outside interference does not become too great. “Re-allocation of the Ninety-second and Ninety-third Divisions as combat divisions” is a phrase which has no place in the plan. Unlike the 369th Infantry, National Guard, New York, or the Eighth Mlinois, neither division has been recognized by the Fed- eral government as a unit in the national army. Nor were they composed of National Guard units, entirely; consequently, after their return to this country, the units composing these divisions reverted to their original state status at the declaration of de- mobilization. A re-constitution, no “re-allocation,” would be a more logical demand to make. Any institution or nation whose existence depends on philan- thropy can not have independence of character. Almsgiving is liberty’s greatest foe, character's worst enemy; hence to make Li- beria a loan is another way of making it.a charitable donation. For,—it hurts to say it—in the one hundred years since it was founded, it has shown that it is incapable of spending money ju- diciously. The Republic of Liberia was founded in 1822 by Negroes— “with the assistance of American colonization societies,”—who had obtained their freedom in the United States, and who carried with them the aristocratic idea of a leisure class. This idea has been so prevalent that, though Liberia is rich in mineral and forest resources, its exports for three years totaled only $58,- 577.00, while its imports for the same period were more than nine times as much—$542,605.00. It has made no modern improvements, being satisfied to carry on its meagre agriculture with a stick instead of a plough. Gov- ernment schools have been nearly supplanted, rather than supple- metned, by mission schools. It has no beasts of burden, no domes- tic animals, no cattle, only a “hand for alms.” So lacking is it in initiative that it seeks to obtain existence without ¢ffort. Its delegates, who came to this country to show cause why a loan should be made, knew nothing of its economic possibilities. To make a loan to a nation so thriftless would encourage it in daziness and subject it to the benevolent feudalism of the rich. - A better recommendation would be that a committee be sent tc Liberia with the express purpose of studying the economic condi- tions and reporting its findings to this country that a plan may be affected for the better. Liberia does not know, or rather does not exemplify, the requisites of autonomy. Lynching is 2 the wane and will continue as long as mifration affects a generahdistribution of the workers. No law prohibiting lynching will be worth the paper on which it is written without the approval of the people. The Prohibition law does not prohi- bit, because it is not the will of the people. Representation is the Negro’s surest method of removing the evils against which he cries. He should put forth every effort which points towards the desired goal. He can never solve his local or national problems without representation in the legisla: tive halls of the National and State governments, for it is the one means to the end.

PAGE SIX THE WASHINGTON tiuouns SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1924 Something of Interest The Institution of the Husband Society knows no institution which vouchsafes connoisseur of comedie humaine a source of suc no less diverting speculation than that offered by known to civilized society as the husband. Nin the husbands of to-day are, to the women whom : sa nto their bosoms, but comic figu Society knows no institution which youchsafes to the student- connoisseur of comedie humaine a source of such profitless but no less diverting speculation than that offered by the institution known to civilized society as the husband. Ninety per cent of the husbands of to-day are, to the women whom they have taken unto their bosoms, but comic figures, to be snick- ered at silently or to be razzed more or less openly upon the least provocation. But, to the husband, a the wife is certainly not the comic figure which fe he himself is, nor has he in the slightest such ree regard for her; yet he remains the ever-present bee target for her internal derisions and for the deri- ia sions, sometimes more amiable, of persons just ea from “Butinsky.” I have pondered this problem of my unfortunate contemporaries but a few years, yet various conclusions have eome to me. First of all, I find courtship to be a show, a (Et: Parker) = Set oF al Lene cour PUOw ae ‘a party thereto. It is a show which devolves laygely upon the |man and one which presents to him a comparatively new busi- iness; but to the woman, it is not new, since chods in the show business from the cradle to the grave. Being in love, as we say, man synchronously finds it expedient to take on the emotional and mental attributes of an actor, and to conduct himself much after the manner of a mime cast for the leading role in a romantic drama. His success in impressing, captivating and winning the heart and hand of his lady-love is measured by the degree of suc- cess he achieves in being the star in this romantic drama. For, customarily, the lady becoming enamored of, and enveloped in, the purple haze which it gives out, capitulates to this actorial projection of her suitor. But the man who is not an actor by profession, does not keep up, nor does’ he feel like~keeping up, the performance once the show is over. However, here and there one finds husbands going bravely on Foe the grease-paint comportment and proscenium behavior for a variable number of years after the wedding bells have rung, but, soon or late, they lapse back into the status quo, into’ the plain unromantic fellows they were before the divine passjon, as we |also say, beset them. The moment the husband thus ae back to ‘normal is the moment his wife, with the wisdom of safely married | women ever, translates her disillusion, usually calmly anticipated, into comfortable comedy. The lover’s mask is off and he is re- vealed as simply a poor clown who is often still lovable but who, for all that, is yet a poor clown: a human being who is half a “sheik” with a three-days growth of beard and half a neatly shaved meal ticket. < While this process of actorial disintegration is going on in the husband, the actorial talents of the wife increase in a propor- tionate ratio. She, seemingly, awakens to the realization that the two of them are cast for a single'role in the tragi-comedy of the matrimonial relation and that the husband has, so to speak, forgot his lines; and consequently. she appreciates that it is her duty to carry on the show alone, single-handed. Her long and natural training in romantic artifice stands her, in this, a good stead. Therefore, while her husband appears to her as a once handsome cuspidor from which all the enamel has been chipped, she continues to appear to the old spittoon a relatively theatrical and effective figure. : A husband, generally, is approximately as romantic to his wife asacow. But, despite all the published cynicism to the contrary, the average wife is a more or less romantic figure to her husband. By romantic, I do not obviously necessarily mean, the creature of starshine and wild white clover that she was before, during and directly after the woo period, but romantic as a man’s close possessions remain ever romantic in his eyes, as the scrapbook of his university days, or his old corncob pipe, or his dog. It is for the reason that everyone outside of himself is privy to him that the husband is viewed more or less generally as the pitia- ble figure in an extravaganza: an actor who once played the lead- ing role in the romantie “Sheik” condemned now by~ironic na- ture and by homely fate to the permanent role of butler in a hinter-land stock company.

NEGRO MUSIC WILL SURVIVE SAYS ENGLISHMAN A Britisher, Frederick Arundel of London, is in this country as direcor of the Riesenfield musical aécompani- ment of a mammoth movie produe- tion now on tour. Since here he has made some very interesting com- ments on American music, the United States brand. He is of the Arundel family af Sussex, was educated at the Royal College of Music, by Kullak in Berlin and at the Ecole Musique in Paris, and for the last twelve years has devoted himself to the collabora- tion of music and the photoplay. He did not hesitate to state his opinions frankly in a recent little talk to some acquaintances regarding various kinds of American music. Says he: “The real Negro music written by Negroes, not by the white : Because you can obtain : A Complete Funeral for $120: ' : at | ire’s F 1H | McGuire’s Funeral Home | Cornet, NINTH aiid WESTMINSTER Sts. : i does not mean that we sell only LOW PRICED funerals. § The COST is left ENTIRELY with you. : 3 We are prepared to furnish, if desired, : : A FUNERAL AS LOW’ ASj$50.00 j and as HIGH as you care to go.

That also is our Rule. One earnest pupil is worth more to our school’s reputation than a score of half-hearted ones and our rates serve as a barrier to such pupils.

ADAMS, Director folks,” as Mr. Arundel put it, the Englishman firmly believes will sur- vive the test of time and prove valuable asset to American Music. In speaking of the American Indian music Mr. Arundel confessed _ that most of the original tribal melodies that He had heard were extremely crude and seemed lacking in suffi. cient scale or variation in melody to make them very useful for adaptation into lovely American nfusic without robbing hem entirely of their Indian characteristics. : “Jazz is not, in my opinion, going to have any definite part in the for- mation of American musical history,” said the Londoner. “It is just a type of popular song that will soon change into something else. There are a few jazz compositiones that’ have real melody and they will be remembered as melodious ‘hits’ of other days have been remembered, but I : not believe that they will help ih developing ‘American music,” “As for the-so-called ‘ultra-modern’ music, both of American and other countries, I personally do not care for it and cannot see how it cam give any- thing of lasting value to musical his- tory. Harmony and melody are what have given the beauty to the classics of Beethoven, Schumann, Shubert, Brahms, and even Wagner, with the revolutionary style of his music, held to these rules. I like especially the music of Wagner and of Verdi. But this dissonance and jangling lack of melody or unified theme that seems to be typical of modern music has no in- Fublic School Fiano Course Classes in piano instruction for be- ginners under the direction of the di- rector of music of the public schools ‘is now an assured fact. More than 600 children it is announced have reg- istered for the lessons. The couse will cover a period of 30 weeks and will cost the pupil $6. Tickets are-be- ing sold for 10 lessons for $2, and the money will be used to pay the salaries of the special teachers. |The piano course is designed es- pecially to determine the ability of a child to master the pianoforte. At ‘the end of the first season the teach- ‘ers will advise the children whether they should continue instruction. No [pupil will be permitted to attend the ‘piano class for more than two sea- sons. After that time a private teacher must be employed. Teaching piano lessons in the pub- lie schools should prove a boom to music in the home and as well among Nive gevaval siical-snuait Gearhete: and schools. It will help instead of hin- deriflg music work generally and as a consequence more talented pupils will be discovered among the masses. Piano instruction inthe public schools will aid rather than jetard many younger pupils as the opportunity to lay a surer foundation is enhanced through competent instruteion where- “ many times the prospective music student fails to secure a good founda- tion through some unqualified local ‘teacher unknowingly. All the instru- pomsshead be taught to beginners ‘in the public schools any way.

Hayes, Mrs. Rosa Belle Johnson has brought suit against her husband, Joseph W. Johnson, for a limited divorce. She charges cruelty. In her bill she says that her husband is unwarrantedly jealous, even to the extent that she was not permitted to visit her own brother's apartment socially or maintain an ordinary friendly relation with neighbors. She says that her husband very seldom accompanied her out and only on rare occasions contributed to the pleasure and amusement of her and their two children. She alleges that on numerous occasions her husband indulged in drinking to excess and frequently gambled away his earnings and as a result had to go without necessities. On several occasions, she says she had to call police of the Eighth Precinct for protection from his abuse and cruelty. One of her children was a "still birth," she alleges, due to the plaintiff throwing her across a table while she was in a delicate state. She first left him, she says, in July, 1923, and filed a bill for divorce, but upon his promises she abandoned this suit and returned to their home. He conducted himself creditably for a short period, she says, and then began anew the same abuses and neglect. On June 16, 1924, he attempted to assault her by choking her and ordered her from the house, threatening to do bodily harm if she remained, she says she sought refuge with her mother. She filed a supplemental bill for divorce, she says, but he again made overtures and agreed to live up to the terms of a separation agreement, into which they entered, and she had her bill for divorce dismissed. She alleges that he has not lived up to the terms of this agreement. Under the terms of it, she says, he was to contribute but $25 per month toward the support and education of their two children. He made one payment only, she claims. She asks the court for a limited divorce and to direct the defendant to show cause why he should not be Pythian Bath House and Sanitarium Knights of Pythias of N. A., S. A., E., A., A. and A.
