To Build Jim Crow Beach Howard University Loses Appropriation in the House SOUTHERNERS DEFEAT BILL TO HONOR LINCOLN First in Local Circulation. Vol. IV, No. 30 To I Howard U SOUTHER SAYS LINCOLN HOLIDAY WOULD COST TOO MUCH After three hours of acrimonious debate, the House yesterday defeated the Zihlman bill to make Lincoln's birthday, February 12, a legal holiday in the District of Columbia. The question was decided by a negative vote of 175 to 144. Representative Blanton, of Texas, led the fight against the measure. He denounced it as a scheme to give the Government employees another holiday at the expense of the Government. Representative Crampton, of Michigan, said the bill would cost the Government $375,000 a year. An impassioned plea to honor the memory of the civil war President by Representative Rathbone, of Illinois, whose father occupied a box in Ford's Theatre on the night Lincoln was shot, failed to gain enough votes for passage of the bill. The measure had the support of the Grand Army of the Republic of the United States. Shaw Observes Founder's Day Raleigh, N.C.—The fifty-ninth anniversary of Founder's Day was observed by students and faculty Monday, December 1. Dr. N. F. Roberts, a Shaw graduate, who has been in the services of the University for fifty years, delivered the principal address. His address was a eulogy of the founder and first president, Dr. Henry Martin Tupper. The growth of the University has been rapid. From several wooden shanties in 1865, the University had taken on sufficient proportions by 1873, the year in which Shaw was incorporated by the State Assembly. In 1880, the medical school, which has now been discontinued, was started on the old governor's mansion estate. There were seven departments in all, Normal, Theology, Medicine, Law, Science, Pharmacy and Literature. Today, all of the professional schools, except Theology, have been dropped. Shaw stands out today as a college of the first rank in the education of the Negro Youth. The members of the Phi Beta Sigma fraternity, the only recognized Greek letter fraternity at Shaw, attended the services in a body wearing the fraternity flower, a beautiful white carnation. After the services in the chapel, the audience went to the grave of Dr. Tupper upon the campus where a brief service was held and a large floral design placed on his grave. After the services at the grave, the audience went to the new science building, which is now under construction, where the president of Shaw, Dr. J. L. Peacock, laid the cornerstone with appropriate ceremony. NO DECISION REACHED AS TO EXACT CHARACTER OF ... INAUGURATION No decision has been reached as to the exact character of the inaugural ceremonies, it was stated at the White House last Tuesday. There will be a parade. The Vice-President will be sworn in in the Senate chamber and the President outside the Capitol where he will deliver his address. A chairman of the inaugural committee will be designated very soon. The Washington Tribune Omega Psi Phi Fraternity to Hold Annual Conclave Here Omega Psi Phi Fraternity to Hold Annual Conclave Here Attorneys Charles H. Houston and Augustus W. Gray were appointed receivers of the defunct Union Laborers Bank, which closed its doors on August 23 last, by Justice Hoehling on last Friday. Demand Papers The newly appointed receivers have made a formal demand upon Melvin Jenkins, who was the secretary and manager of the shareholders committee, that he turn over to them all books, papers and effects of the bank. While the summons to Mr. Jenkins was directed to the offices of the bank, 1113 U Street, Northwest, which were opened after the bank had closed its doors, he could not be located at the offices and service had to be had upon him at his residence, 401 D Street, southeast. James H. W. Howard, the president of the insolvent bank, was not represented in court by counsel. He and Lewis W. Oldham, a trustee, were in court in person. George E. C. Hayes appeared for J. Finley Wilson, another trustee. Armond W. Scott represented Dr. Rembert T. Nelson, a trustee, and August W. Gray appeared for Thomas C. Smith, also a trustee. This suit is for a receivership and to determine the liability of the trustees and shareholders jointly and severally. This bank was peculiarly operated. It did not come under the Comptroller of the Currency, but was run as a private business under a declaration of trust. The suit was filed by Attorney Charles H. Houston. Social and collegiate circles of Washington are planning a season of gala affair in connection with the 13th Annual Conclave of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, December 27 to 31, that will eclipse anything that the capital city has seen in years. The matrons and maids of Washington's social set are making elaborate preparations to tender a receipt to visiting delegates and member of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, which will make Washington the acme fo civic hospitality. Latest indications point to an attendance of more than five hundred delegates and from two to three hundred additional members from nearby chapters. The round of social activities will be begun with a smoker to the visiting Omega men given by the Alpha and Alpha Omega Chapters of this city. Among the prominent Omega men, who will be honored at this smoker are Dr. E. E. Just, Roland Hayes, Dr. Carter G. Woodson, Dr. J. W. E. Bowen, Carl Diton, Dr. Chas. H. Marshall, Wm. Pickens, Garnett C. Wilkinson, Kemper Harreld, John R. Hawkins, Bishop John Hurst, Bishop A. L. Gaines, Frank Coleman, Nahum D. Brascher, Hon. J. C. Napier, Wm. Stuart Nelson and W. Justin Carter. The Fraternal will be the guests HOWARD AGAIN AT THE MERCY OF THE SENATE The Howard University item of $406,000 was stricken from the Interior Department appropriation bill last Saturday upon points of order by Representative James F. Byrnes of South Carolina, a member of the appropriations committee. Medical Building Included The stricken items called for appropriations of $125,000 for maintenance; $34,000 for the manual arts department; $9,000 for equipment of the medical laboratory; $5,000 for material and apparatus for the science laboratories; $3,000 for the library; $30,000 for improvement of grounds and repairs of buildings; $15,000 for fuel and light, and $185,000 toward the construction of a building for the medical school at a cost of $370,000, to be equipped by alumni and friends at not less than $130,000. The total amount of $406,000 was $41,000 above the appropriation for the current year and $185,000 above the estimates of the Budget Bureau. The increase of $185,000 was on account of the proposed appropriation for the medical department. (Continued on page 6) of the Board of Trustees of Howard University at the opening meeting on Sunday December 28th in the Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel on Howard University Campus. In response to the courtesies of the people of Washington and in order that they might have an opportunity to meet the visiting delegates, a formal opening reception and dance will be given in the new dining hall at Howard University on Monday night the 29th. There will be a considerable amount of sentiment attached to this affair because the Fraternity will be acting as host to the public, at the place of its birth, the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity having been organized at Howard University 13 years ago on November 11, 1911. It was the first College Greek Letter Fraternity to be organized in a colored institution of learning. A closed dance to the members of the Fraternity and their guests will be held at Lincoln Colonnade, December 30th. The services of the leading decorative artists of the East will be secured to turn this beautiful ball room into a veritable fairyland for this occasion. A number of leading social organizations of the city are planning a number of entertainments in honor of the Fraternity. A complete schedule of which will be announced later. ETCHING SHOWN AT HOWARD UNIVERSITY Art lovers of Washington will enjoy a rare treat on Tuesday evening, December 16, when the Art Department of Howard University will present a series of etchings by Marco Zim, the celebrated sculptor and etcher, of New York City. The works of Mr. Zim will be exhibited in the main hall of the Home Economics Building. The wife of the artist has agreed to be present on the occasion and will lecture on the technique of the etchings. The exhibition and lecture will begin at 8:00 p.m. There will be no admission charge. Should those interested in art respond in sufficient numbers, it is planned to have other well-known artists exhibit at Howard during the winter. Prof. James V. Herring, of the Art Department of Howard University, was instrumental in securing the work of Mr. Zim for the display next Tuesday. LOCAL BUSINESS MEN MAKE BID FOR XMAS TRADE Never before in the history of Washington have the colored merchants been able to fill so many of our Christmas neds as they are this year. In canvassing the various stores, a Tribune reporter found many valuable and useful articles for sale. Judging from the new places handling them, colored dollars are growing in popularity. Nearly a half-dozen stores have them displayed in the Northwest section alone. Jewelry, musical instruments and supplies and radio supplies are evidently in popular favor. The Geo. W. Taylor Jewelry Company, located at 1025 U Street, Northwest, has on display a full line of jewelry and silverware. This store is giving the public the same quality the bigger downtown stores are offering, but with better terms. Mr Taylor stated that this is possible because his store does not have the high rent to pay and other costly methods other stores must have. The Reid Music Company, at 11th and U Streets, Northwest, is another up-town store that carries everything in its line the public demands. So rapid has this store grown since its opening until it is now one of the largest musical stores in the city outside the downtown section. Brook's Old Log Cabin Sweets, 1006. 20th Street, Northwest, with a branch store at 1938 9th Street, Northwest, is one of the leading candy, ice cream and pastry firms in the city. This firm manufactures in its own plant, some of the most delicious confections to be had in this city. Mr. Brooks, the proprietor, stated this week that his stocks are more complete this year than ever before. They have many Christmas specials in their line for sale. Other business firms handling Christmas specials are: The Scurlock Studio, 900 U Street, Northwest; Family Bakery, 642 Florida Avenue, Northwest, and Board's Pharmacy, 1912¼ 14th Street, Northwest. Coolidge Aims to Strike Blow at South's Election Methods Coolidge Aims to Strike Blow at South's Election Methods TWELFTH STREET Y.M.C.A.GETS $10,000 BEQUEST The will of Mrs. Anna M. Kingan, widow of Robert Kingan, who died recently at her home in Chevy Chase, Md. having admitted to probate in the orphan's court in Rockville. It was executed June 12, 1922, and names Frances Young and Marian Young, sisters of the testatrix, and Clyde D. Garret, a Washington attorney, executors. During her life, Mrs. Kingan showed marked interest in charitable and educational work among colored people of the District of Columbia. In addition to annual gifts to the Colored Y. M. and Y. W. C. A., she is also reported to have assisted several students to complete their training at Howard University. Those who were very close to Mrs. Kingan say that no worthy cause of the race which was brought to her attention was ever refused help. Among the numerous bequests found in her will are one of $10,000 to the colored work of the Y.M.C.A. of this city; $2000 to the Voorhees Industrial Colored School, Denmark, S.C.; Mary P. Smith and Lewis Willis, servants, $500 each, and Elizabeth F. Keller, servant, $300. Secretary Johnson of the Y.M.C.A. states that he has not been informed officially of the bequest but that the 12th Street Branch has cause to remember the splendid generosity of Mrs. Kingan during her lifetime. Each year he says she made donations in the form of memberships and contributions to the work of the branch. It was learned at the White House that President Coolidge believes that his recommendation to the Congress concerning appropriate representation of all political parties at the ballot box and equality of representation on the various registration boards, if enacted into law, would give a feeling of security to all parties represented and would give them an opportunity to see that they do not suffer in any way from the conduct of the election. Helfful to Negro Such a wish be beneficial to the Negro, particularly in those states where disfranchisement is in effect notwithstanding the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the Constitution. "Nothing is so fundamental," said the Coolidge message, "to the integrity of a republican form of govern- Office: 920 U St., N.W. New Bea the House LINCOLN / CHARGES SCRIMINATION ARE UNFOUNDED The recent meeting of a group of members of the faculty of Howard University, at which time they raised a howl about the salary increases granted them has caused much comment on this subject by the public in general. The meeting was composed principally of instructors in the College Department. The dissatisfaction over salary seems to be confined to this department; apparently the professional school instructors are satisfied with their present salaries and increases, or they are willing to wait on the regular order of things to bring them more returns. The principal trouble seems to over the proportion of the $15,100 salary increase granted by the Board of Trustees. The disgruntled members of the faculty contend that the bulk of this amount went to increase the salaries of clerks and that the faculty got ludicrously small increases. The faculty members also charged the governing officials with taking care of themselves in preference to members fo the faculty. An investigation by The Tribune has revealed some interesting data on the question of salaries paid by the University. The officials of the university emphatically deny the charges of the disgruntled instructors, both as to themselves and the clerical increases. The records of the university show that the salaries of the president and the secretary-tresurer have not been increased at all. The salaries they now receive are the same as paid them four years ago. While on the other hand, the records show that membe of the faculty have received over 25 per cent salary increase during this period. Four years ago the salaries of the deans, according to the records was $2400 a year for 10 months work. For the year of 1924, their salaries are $3,000 a year. Out of the $15,100 salary increase granted, the deans received $100 a year increase, making (Continued on page 3) To Strike Blow at tion Methods ment as honesty in all that relates to the conduct of elections. I am of the opinion that the national laws governing the choice of members of the Congress should be extended to include appropriate representation of the respective parties at the ballot box and equality of representation on the various registration boards, wherever they exist." Registration officers, it is pointed out, in southern states where disfranchisement is practiced, arbitrally refuse to register colored persons who meet every qualification required under the law. There is a law in Massachusetts which provides for appropriate representation at the ballot box on the registration boards. It has worked very well, and the President favors the extension of a similar law to all federal elections.

O. Sherrill, officer in charge of public buildings and grounds, announced. The beach, which is to cost $75,000 is provided for in the second deficiency appropriation bill passed by Congress. It is planned to erect a stucco building similar in design to the white bathhouse at a cost of $60,000. The beach will cost $15,000 and there will be accommodations for 10,000 bathers daily. Plans have already been drawn and specification will be made up and contracts let within 30 days. Leut. Col. Sherrill announced. He expects the beach to be ready for use by July 30th next. The haste of Lieut. Col. Sherrill is ascribed to his desire to placate the colored people by the time for his re-appointment. He is a North Carolinian and since he has been in charge of buildings and grounds he has done more to increase segregation than any other government official. One of his recent acts was the setting aside of a golf link in Potomac Park for colored persons and denying them permission to use any of the other golf courses. John W. Quivers Passes Away Mr. John W. Quivers of 413 Third Street, Southwest, died at his late residence last Friday, December 5th. Funeral services were held from Zion Baptist Church, Tuesday, December 9th. Mr. Quivers was well known in Washington where he had lived for over thirty-seven years. He was born in Chambersburg, Pa., in 1867. He married Mrs. Alice (Tyler) thirty-three years ago. He was married by Rev. W. J. Howard, of Zion Baptist Church, of which church he had been a member for years. For thirty-six years he was employed by the Pullman Palace Car Company as porter. He was one of the oldest employees in point of service in the Washington District. He is survived by a wife, a son, a daughter, two grandchildren, one brother, one sister, and other relatives. He was a member of Jonathan Davis Consistory and Social Lodge No. 1, F.A.A.M. Wm.J:Smith Elected President of Holy Name Guild On Tuesday evening, December 9th the regular monthly meeting of the Holy Name Guild was held at the Guild Building 1727 132b Street, N.W. at 8 o'clock with a very good attendance and very much business was transacted at this meeting. Rev. R. Froelich, assistant pastor of St. Augustine, gave a very interesting talk on a surprise party that will be given in the near future. The election of officers brought out a very large crowd. William J. Smith was elected unanimously President at the meeting and all the other officers but one, Mr. DeReef Holton who told of pressing business which forced him to resign the office of Press Agent. Mr. Francis Springs, editor of the Council Review was elected to that office. Mr. Smith the President, is a well known worker in St. Augustine's parish, and have been an excellent president. This recognition of his brother members in the Guild speaks the quality of his activity in that organization. The Guild Building is the Headquarters and Club House of the Catholic men of the city of Washington. ```markdown ``` LOCALS AND SOCIETY + Buy Now for Xmas ( ; Pay Next Year i { Xmas Special ( i We Make A Specialty of | Class Rings { ae | See ei | Si ae SE aecige eaeetae , i : , WATCHES =< GO anse + Special for Xmas Only ff e/a) be Ladies Wrist ae 4 Watch Only $5 yet 8 Bf 4 Several shapes to select from Cushion, Octagon a pies shape. 25-year et ee A (pm Watches alle Bay ui / Pest geen gis r Stankiant Rectangular white gold { Movements Layne match Ee B « aver cases; uarantee , 9500 (=e 4 A Deposit Reserves Any A PAGE TWO The Trio Beauty Culture School, 3944 Sth Street, N.W., has opened its books for enrollment; day and night classes, Madam Pauline C.

The proposition has been put up to the high school officials for approval. The coaches approving the new project are: E. P. Westmoreland, representing Armstrong, J. N. Saunders, of Dunbar, O. A. Wilson of Booker T. High, Norfolk, Va.; W. A. Thomas of Huntington High, Newport News, Va.; and L. V. Gibson of Douglas High, Baltimore. The Roanoke High may join the Conference at an early date. Football schedules for all of the Conference teams have been completed and are awaiting the various school officials' approval of the conference idea. In fact, practically all details for carrying out the conference plan was completed at a recent meeting of the above named coaches.

The "Y" guint was slow getting started but when the final score was counted they had tossed in 51 points on the husky camp boys, while the Camp Humphrey boys were hanging on with 12 points to their credit. In the last half of the game the "Y" boys showed rare form. The "Y" will play the Scholastic team of Baltimore in Baltimore on Friday, December 19th. You will remember this team lost to the "Y" team in Washington by a close score, but were the winners on their own court last year. The Physical Work Committee decided to organize a volleyball league which will start January 2nd. Teams are to be formed principally from the faculties of the various schools. Any person interested in volleyball may register at the "T" for membership in one of the teams. FRAT QUINTS READY The Omega-Kappa game at Murray Casino on December 27th will open the fraternal basketball season. The fraternities are planning a league this season. VILLS-ROJAS MATCH The American Legion of New York is planed a 15-round bout at Madison Sq. Garden for January 14, between Harry Wills and Romera Kojas. Paul Quinn Stops Tuskegee In West Paul Quinn Tigers, champions of southwest, headed by Coach H. J. Long, met the Tuskegee Tigers, champions of southeast headed by Coach Abbott, in an effort to determine the champions of the entire South. The Tuskegee Tigers, who were the favorites to win were thrown on the defensive throughout the game, the game ending 0 to 0. The 1500 enthusiastic fans will agree with the writer in saying that Tuskegee was outclassed and outgeneraled throughout the four periods. Tuskegee received the kick and with a mad rush made two first downs without being checked. Paul Quinn exhibited signs of nervousness but this soon disappeared. They took the pikskin after realizing that the Tuskegee Tigers could be stopped and kept it all but 6 minutes of the game. Tuskegee made 5 first downs and Paul Quinn made 18. Paul Quinn punted only twice during the four periods. The entire backfield and line starred for Paul Quinn, Jennings and Wooten starred for Tuskegee. Coach Long, veteran coach and student of Zuppke of the University of Illinois, has the distinction of being the greatest coach in the Southewest Conference. With only about 300 students inspiring and cheering him he has the remarkable record of having only one defeat against him in two years PAUL QUNN'S COACH PRODUCES THE GOODS The students and alumni of Paul Quinn College, Texas, are singing the praises of Coach Long. The Texas mentor is a product of Zuppke of Illinois fame. Only one defeat in two years has been chalked up against him. Coach Long is being boomed by his friends for an Eastern job which shouldn't be hard for him to land. WINS JUNIOR HIGH TITLE Shaw Junior High won the junior high school football championship by defeating Phelps Vocational School 6 to 0. A new football was offered as the prize. GOVERNOR MORGAN SEES IN- STITUTE DEFEAT A. & T. The West Virginia Collegiate Institute's football eleven ended an exceedingly successful season yesterday on Laidley Field by disposing of the heavy A. and T. college gridiron machine which came all the way from Greensboro, North Carolina to thrash the Yellow Jackets. When Turner, Institute quarterback, grabbed a pass from Cardwell and skirted across 40 yards of turf or a touchdown and later booted a pretty 15-yard field goal he amassed a point total sufficient to down the visitors by a 10-7 count. Turner, Cardwell and Lowery were the Institute stars in the backfield, while Captain Gough, Hodges and Ward did good work in the line. The North Carolinians presented a great backfield combination in Coleman, J. Lane, Wilson and Bell with the first named a shade the best of the quartet. Cunningham, Patterson and Cole were the outstanding line stars. The visitors had a much more powerful team and probably gained much more ground than Institute but they lacked the alertness and brainy play of Coach Hamblin's well coached eleven. Governor E. F. Morgan, his secretary, Jesse V. Sullivan and a number of state officials were on hand to witness the battle which was colorful in the extreme. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1924 "SAY IT WITH FLOWERS" "TIGER" FLOWERS Pindle Re-elected to Lead Hampton Eleven (By P. Bernard Young, Jr.) Hampton, Va., Dec. 8 Following the well-won and thrilling triumph over Union University on Thanksgiving Day, the 19 sturdy knights of Hampton's football squad who won their cherished "H" met and reelected Oscar A. Pindle of South Boston, Va., as the leader of the 1925 football team of Hampton Institute. As far as it can be ascertained, such a signal honor as the election of a player to serve as captain for two consecutive years on one team has been awarded only twice before in Hampton's history. 1925 Prospects Bright Two of Hamptons' mainstays David Gunn and "Jimmie" Jones played their last football game foring played out their four years under the Blue and White. Both are now specializing in physical education and coaching at Hampton Institute. Gunn, who has also played his four years out in Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association basketblal, is assisting with the coaching of the basketball squad. Hampton is fortunate in not losing more than two players. This year only six letter men returned to school. Next year Coaches Charles H. Williams and Gideon E. Smith will have seventeen letter men of this year's varsity team with which to open the season. In addition, several letter men of former years will return. Barring unforeseen circumstances, the prospects for a great team at Hampton seems bright, indeed. Next season there will be men of two vacancies. An experienced and tried team will be Hampton's lot in the 1925 race for top honors. Letter Men Named These players received letters: James T. Alexander, guard, Courtland, Ala.; Elmer A. Baker, quarterback, Phoebus, Va.; Thomas J. Coleman, guard, Memphis, Tenn.; Frederick Creasy, tackle, Scottsburgh, Va.; George W. Davis, end, Brookneal, Va.; William Dean, fullback, Greenwood, S.

Bernard Young, Jr.) Hampton, Va., Dec. 8—Thirty-five aspiring and willing basketball candidates answered the call of Coach Charles H. Williams for players who wish to try for position on the basketball team to represent Hampton Institute in the coming season. These men will enter the competition with the definite aim of recapturing basketball honors for a second year. Included in this number are the members of last year's quintet and around this group the coaches are centering their activities in building up another team which can ride successfully at the end of the season on the crest of a championship wave. The first game will probably come off on December 20. The coaches will work the teams at top speed from now on. Then will come an exceptionally hard schedule running through the ```markdown ``` 1930 season without a let-up. Certain games are pending which prevents a complete schedule from being ready for publication. The principal loss that the team will feel will be that of David Gunn, its sensational running guard of last year. Capt. Chester R. Jones of New Rochelle, N.Y., former all-American selection for the forward position and one of the best defensive forwards to play at Hampton for many years, has been switched to a guard position with former Captain Langston as a running mate. Edward Hargrove, last years' best scorer, reported a few days late due to injuries received in football. He is expected to round into condition rapidly. For the forward position, Alfred McNichols and William Lambright, the diminutive, but sensational forward, will likely be the coaches' most dependable players. GILL TO LEAD SHAW "Bozo" Gill, star right tackle of the Shaw University eleven, has been elected captain for next year.

I think since that game is an annual event, it should have had all the splendor that such high school teams could have afforded. The high schools have a band, two battalion of cadets, which could have come on the field before the game. This event could be second to the Army and Navy Classic game which is played every year. I think our schools should try to keep ahead of the other fellow. They had the first band ever made up of high school students.

NORMAL TO SCORELESS TIE IN POST-SEASON GAME Russell Field, Lawrenceville, Va., Dec. 6th-In a tense and thrilling game which was the last C.I.A.A. tilt of the 1924 football season, St. Paul Normal and Industrial School and Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute fought desperately, valiantly and ardently, only to find themselves in a 0-0 deadlock at the final gong which proclaimed an end to the gigantic struggle on which many anxious eyes were concentrated and on which the interest of thousands was centered. Virginia Normal threatened to score a touchdown twice. With "Bull" Turner and Epps on the throwing end and Ross and Baker on the receiving end, the scintillating aerial attack of the Hilltoppers was particularly dangerous. With four minutes to play in the first half, the Hilltoppers inocked a forward pass offense that swept the Tigers off their feet. Two passes, 16 and 17 yards, respectively, placed the Virginia Normal lads on St. Paul's 7-yard line, first and ten. The third pass was knocked down by Smith, St. Paul's promising back, behind his goal line and the half ended. In the third period, via a forward pass and a series of plays, with Sayles's sensational gain through the line featuring, Virginia Normal again advanced the ball to St. Paul's 7-yard line. They got 3 yards on the next play, but fumbled on St. Paul's 2-yard line on the second down, St. Paul recovering the oval on her own 2-yard line. Tyler, standing on his end zone line, confident that his towerig forward would hold, punted to midfield. Thus Va. Normal's fond hopes and magnanimous bid for victory went to naught, for never again did the Orange and Blue come within the shadow of the final chalk mark. St. Paul did not seriously threaten to score. Walker attempted a goa from the forty-yard line in the third period, but missed his mark by several yards in direction and height. To designate certain players as stars in today's encounter would be a fallacy, because every youngster who entered the classic battle played a jam-up game and carried out his assignment to the very best of his ability. Some players shone brilliantly, and that is natural, but those who made it possible for the backs to gain, for the aerial game to be effective, and for the ends to get down under punts share equally the honors of the game. Statistics of game First downs: St. Paul 5; Va. Normal 7. Penalties: St. Paul 30 yards; Va. Normal 65 yards. St. Paul attempted 4 forward passes and intercepted 1. Va. Normal attempted 7 forward passes, completed 4 and intercepted 1. St. Paul fumbled 3 times and recovered 1. Va. Normal fumbled 5 times and recovered 2. Average distance of punts: St. Paul 42 yards on 12 punts; Va. Normal 38 yards on 9 punts. ATLANTA VICTORIOUS IN SOUTHEAST CLASSIC (By F. A. Warner) Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 6—Seventy-five hundred people swarmed into Ponce De Leon Park here today to witness the post-season clash between Morehouse College and Atlanta University. It was a motley crowd. There were the two huge bodies of each institution garbed and arrayed in all the splendor of the Crimson and Gray of Atlanta and the Maroon and White of Morehouse. There were the two alumni; there were members of the Caucasian race and they composed nearly fifty per cent of the attendance; there were those bent on seeing the lacked the necessary funds. And all game despite the fact that they of this interest was centered about the fact that two ancient rivals were meeting once more on the gridiron after a period of 'cessation of athletic activity' which began in 1921. One of these rivals had been victorious in the past 13 games between them on the gridiron and held the crown of Atlanta colleges and oft-times, of the South. The other had risen to dizzy heights in Southern football since 1922, coming up from seeming obscurity to Southeastern Champions of 1922 under the masterful coaching of their mentor Walter H. Aiken. It was to be a decisive battle for the Atlanta crown—and tonight the Morehouse Tiger lies dethroned while the Crimson Hurricane subsides its avalanche of gridiron fury enough to allow the Crimson and Gray banner of Atlanta University to float proudly in the breeze. It was Homecoming Day for both schools—and they came! From 'up East' and 'down East'; from as far West as Golden California; from all parts of the South they came, and tonight, even as we write, Atlanta Alumni are rejoicing and are happy over what they had waited for nearly 20 years. The score of 13 to 0 will remain a firm fixture in the minds of Atlanta Alumni. Tonight is an historic sheet in the record of Atlanta University. A fumbled punt by Rodgers of Morehouse which Clay scoped up and raced 50 yards across the goal line, re suited in Atlanta's first score. De Lorme kicked goal, Green, a substitute halfback, scored the other touchdown when he picked up a fumble and dashed 70 yards ahead of his pursuers. STARTLING REVELATIONS PICTURED IN FILM "Burn all women and children!" Such, according to history, was the edict sent forth by Capt.

Representative Allard H. Gasque, in his letter of protest to Police Superintendent Sullivan, expressed the general thought of Southerners, now in residence here—that order. can, or rather should be obtained only by the white man. This idea was for a long time prevalent among Negroes, but thanks to increasing intelligence, it is fast losing its hold upon the Race. This is evidenced by the increased number of Negroes now holding positions, which require authority over men. No race of people on earth can cry out louder against disorder than the Southern white man. Order is a supreme factor in his makeup, but must be had cnl at the hands of the white man. He sets all standards and devises all methods. Order was the thing desired during a récent’ meeting of the United Daughters of the Confederacy and order was had, but, this time, by the presence of a Negro policeman, E. W. aan The g@neral tone of Gasque’s letter would justify any act by the “honorable ladies” from Dixie. Order is all right, but, at the hands of a Negro, prejudice is better. The Washington Tribune congratulates Major Sullivan for the position he took in this matter. His curt reply and his deter- mination to make no apology proved him to be in this instance quite capable to handle his office. Not until we, as a Nation realize that Order knows no respect of persons can we hope to avoid friction. It is a prime requisite of peace and good will, the foundation of a Republic. Disorder may be caused by encouragement, and to retain such men as Gasque as members of a body, whose function it is to obtain and maintain order, is to supply the encouragement. HOWARD UNIVERSITY: THE ANNUAL SCORAMRIE % The gentleman from South Carolina clears histhroat and de- mands the floor. He has a point of order to make against appro- priation of federal money for Howard University. The~House sustains him. Telephone messages buzz to the University. The faculty and students go into a joint prayer meeting; the adminis- tration rushes into action. Feverish cloak-room activity around the coat tails of the Senate. The Senate restores the appropria- tion, and all is well—for another year. But how long can the usefulness of an institution endure upon such a piece-meal, hand-to-mouth basis as that upon which the maintenance of Howard University rests? Where does -the trou- ble lie? Certainly not in the over-worked administration of the University, which in addition to all of its other multiple duties must transform itself annually into a chief lobbying and mendi- cant committee before an unsympathetic and indifferent, if not hostile, Congress. The trouble lies with the race itself, and will never be remedied until the race remedies it. The Tribune is not blindly committed to the policy of a black president, black teachers, and black students for a Negro univer- sity. It is committed to the principle of he best president, black or white, the best teachers, black or white, and a university stu- dent body composed of all searchers for truth, irrespective of creed, nationality, or race. But it is convinced that this program ean never be completely realized unless and until Negroes them- selves are vested with the ultimate university control. The way wherein lies financial independence. As a race we lack indi- vidual wealth but not aggregate wealth. And by close and sus- tained co-operation we can ,make our universities independent. The obligation rests upon egch and every one of us to contribute to the cause. It is inescapable. The inabilityto give One Hun- dred Dollars does not excuse the failure to give Five Dollars. In fact it means more to the race to have a university endowed thru a million subscriptions of Five Dollars each than to have it en- dowed through five subscriptions of a Million Dollars each, for the million murmuring voices will swell into a mighty volume de- manding educational freedom for the race. JAMES FRANCIS BYRNES, Congressman ( Who's Who in America, 1924-1925, p. 615) Born Charleston, S.C., May 2, 1879; Educated in the public schools; Ad- mitted to the bar, 1903; Editor, Journal and Review, Aiken, 1903-1907; Ofi- cial Court Reporter, 2nd Cire., S.C., 1900-1908; Solicitor, 2nd_ Circuit, S.C., 1908-1910 Member 62nd to 68th Congresses (1911-1925); Represen- tative, 2nd S.C. District. The gentleman from South Carolina is opposed to a federal appropriation for Howard University. He would deny to black boys the opportunities for higher education which unfortunately were evidently denied to him. But then it really might prove embarrassing to the gentleman from South Carolina to have a lot of Negro A.B.’s, M.D.’s, LL.B.’s, and Ph.D.’s, in a district where he is supposed to exercise the leadership. It would be bet- ter to close up all Negro universities than to allow such embar- rassment to come to pass. White supremacy at any cost! Howard !Again at_the Mercy of the Senate (Continued from page 1) Unauthorized by Law Representative Byrnes argued that the appropriation was not authorized by law and that the item for the new medical school was new legislation on an appropriation bill and that the Budget Bureau had not estimated for it. Representative Louis C. Crampton of Michigan, chairman of the sub- committee which drafted the bill, and in charge of the measure in the House. admitted that the appropria- tion was subject to the points of or- der but appealed to Mr. Byrnes not to insist upon it, at least as to the small contrbiutions toward mainten- anee. “If for 50 years we have been mak- ing an appropriation for a purpose not authorized by law,” said Mr. Byrnes, “it is time that the Congres: should have the courage to enact leg- islation or discontinue the appropria- tions. The Committee on Education. can bring ovt a bill and if the Con- PAGE SIX gress deems it wise it can enact a law authorizing an appropriation for thi university. In the “absence of it, it should not be permitted to remair am the bill.” Representative Crampton _pointe¢ out that Howard University was no the only private institution for whict ‘the Government appropriated. He called attention to the item in the ‘same bill for the Columbia Institu ‘tion for the Deaf, and that the Gov. ‘ernment appropriated $6,000,000 for ‘the education of the Indians. In ad dition, he said that colleges in Sout) ‘Carolina were given Federal Fund: for their maintenance. | There is no doubt, however, tha ‘the Senate will restore most of th ‘items stricken from the bill and tha: the two houses will agree in confer ance to the appropriation as was the case last year. Byrnes A “Lame Duck” Byrnes, who was instrumental a both last session and this session of Congress in having the Howard Uni versity item stricken from the Inter or Department appropriation bill, i verving his last days as a Congress man. His term expires March 4, 1925 He was a candidate for the Unite THE WASHINGTON THIBONE SATURDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1924 Something of Interest The Distinction Between the Literature of Power and the Liter ature of Knowledge. Co-operation. President Coolidge’s Philosophy Many, many times Thomas De Quincey made a distinction be- tween the Literature of Power and the Literature of Knowledge: the literature which “moves” and the literature which “teaches.” Although he defined the second of these as addressing the “dis. cursive understanding,” yet a consideration of the passage in point indicates he had in mind fo rather that aspect of Knowledge that he would A 3 better have termed information than that surely % distinguishable aspect which can more exactly be called understanding. Loe The confrontation of the “cookery book” by se “Paradise Lost” appears a shade facetious. This we distinction becomes more interesting if under . Knowledge we think rather of the act of under- standing than of the acquirement—and the utili- ty—of inforniation. The distinction has often . 4» Farker) been made in this more interesting sense also. | The distinction then lies between that literature which like a |\yrie poem of Lord Byron, or like a tragic scene by Shakespeare, energizes and exhilarates emotionally, and that literature which, like a page in Plato, or like one of those luminous expositions in the talk of Goethe, gives us rather the quite emotional satisfac- | tion of complete cadeestaidine Yet Knowledge also is Power. I do not of course here intend that sense which has long since become proverbial, the sense in which_Knowledge is conceived as an implement, an implement powerful. I mean that knowing is a kind of converted feeling; that a thought is merely a differently conscious, a more defined and subtilized emotion; that the process induced in us by reading a page of Plato is more than analogous to that process induced by ‘a lyric of Lord Byron; that these processes are, in their essentials, one. The energy in question may act through different chan- ‘nels; it yet remains, as well in its effect upon the reader as in its crigin in the writer, essentially a unit: we discover here no dif- ference in kind. The satisfaction of Knowledge and the exhil- aration of Power admit of no ultimate division; they are vary- ingly divergent modes of the same pleasure-giving activity. +. 8 ye BAS Every apprentice attached to the Sheet Metal Union’“must and shall attend Sheet Metal Classes at the Carnegie Institute of Technology the last four years of his apprenticeship, or until he has finished the course for sheet metal apprentices.” In co. operation with this the manufacturers have agreed to send “the apprentice to the Carnegie Institute of Technology for trade in- struction one day each week from October 1 to May 1 during the last four years of his apprenticeship. The apprentice shall be | allowed his regular wage while attending school.” | This is an artesting bit of news. Little has been heard, here-' tefore, of any desire on the part of unions generally that their apprentices do a great deal of learning, nor of invitations on the part of universities to apprentices who might be benefited by spe- cial courses. It is interesting to note that at least one union: takes a scientific interest in its work and a pride in its quality. It should encourage other unions to exercise as much energy in demanding of their members the best possible quality of work as they do in demanding the highest possible pay. If they should form such an attitude it would make for an achievement which would receive a National approval which, in turn, would mean much to them. Of course the case cited is of but one union in one city, Pitts- burgh; however, we hope that it may be the beginning of a wide and general co-operation between our technical schools, manu- facturers and labor unions. Such a development would enable us to face more confidently the international industrial competi- tion we are sure to encounter in the no distant future. 3. ee Te he oe “We can not hope indefinitely,” says President Coolidge, “to maintain our country as a specially favored community, an isle of contentment lifted above the general level of the average of the standard of humanity.” This shows the philosophical back- ground of Mr. Coolidge’s belief in isolations. However, Mr. Coolidge is not alone in his belief, for this has been the dream of many Americans, but, with the rapid knitting together of the continents, it has become impracticable. To consolidate our position more as a creditor nation, our econ- emie associations with the rest of the world must become more and more intimate. Our political interests will then be more and more internationalized. We did not keep out of the great war; for we have a selfish motive as well as an unselfish one for helping our neighbors and wishing to reap a return benefit from those services. But by doing our level best to raise them to our econ- (omic standards and to make their association with us mutually | advantageous, we bring about peace and good will, not only for ourselves, but for them also. : ___ Such a doctrine of international co-operation is practi¢al. It fits in with our situation and with our conception of the high value of national sovereignty and of freedom of national action. We , Will not surrender our independence nor submit to international | decision questions that we consider domestic. We are masters | of all we survey and intend to remain so. Yet, we are ever ready 'to do our bit in helping others, promoting world welfare and in- | suring world peace. We are not isolationists, but we wh balk | at the mistaken methods and hollow illusions of a scheme of rigid | world concert that we distrust and for which few nations, if any, | at present are either politically or jntellectually ready.

Freedmen’s Hospital Funds | ‘The itefas for Freedmen’s Hospital were not disturbed, but were approved by the committee of the whole House as recommended by the approptiations committee. They, total $202,950, which is an increase of $28,250 ‘above th appropriation for the current year. The Freedmen’s . Hospital _appro- pfiation includes an item of $50,00¢ for an enlarged and remodeled nurses home, payable from the revenues of the District of Columbia. In the cur. ‘rent appropriation there was an item of $18,700 for equipment of a path ological building which does not ap- near in the bill now before the House There is also a reduetion this year of 3,050 in the item for subsistenee, “uel and medicine. = L S 3 INDIANA ATTORNEY ADMITTED TO SUPREME COURT George W.

ETHEL IDA OVERTON LILLIAN OVERTON HOWARD H. LEWIS THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE SATURDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1924 Dear Editor: I am sending you the answer to the cross-word puzzle. I belong to the "Children's Page," but this is the first time that I have written to you because I just do not have the time to write because of my studies. Dead men are wisest, for they know How far the roots of flowers go, How long a seed must rot to grow. Dead men alone bear frost and rain On throbless heart and heartless brain And feel no stir of joy or pain. Dead men alone are satiate; They sleep and dream and have no weight, To curb their rest, of love or hate. Strange, men should flee their com- pany, Or think me strange who long to be Wrapped in their cool immunity. —The Nation Mr. Cullen is a young poet whose poems are accepted and published by the large magazines of this country. When ability is shown—one's color does not mean a bar to one's success. Mr. Cullen is a Negro, yet the publishers class him as being one of America's foremost poets of the younger generation. Do not say that you can not succeed. You can succeed—but you must study hard. Stay in school, be true to yourself by earnest concentration on your tack of studying. When you feel as the you are weary—that you want to quit—just think of young Cullen and say, "I, too, shall succeed." Don't say "nigger." DIES!! BUDDIES!!! Anna B.

Mrs. Rhinelander Believes Husband Still Loves Her Mrs. Rhinelander Believes Husband Still Loves Her New York City, Dec. 12—Leonard Kip Rhinelander is being kept away from his bride, Alice Beatrice Jones, by his father, according to City Judge Samuel F. Swinburne, retained by the bride to fight her husband's suit to annul the marriage on the ground that deception as to race was practiced. The Judge said that if young Rhinelander were free to act—at least, so believes his bride—he would return without delay to the home of his father-in-law, George Jones. Through counsel Jones has declared the naturalization papers were in error. As evidence that Leonard Rhinelander is back of his bride in the suit, Judge Swinburne made public a note alleged to have been sent to Mrs. Rhinelander by messenger. The note was not signed, but the lawyer said his client recognized her husband's handwriting. It read: "Honey Bunch, old scout—I hope you will win this case. Get the best lawyer."

Given under my hand this 1st day of December, 1924. William H. Jackson, 301 H St., N.W. Attest: James Tanner, Register of Wills for the District of Columbia, Clerk of the Probate Court. Judge Swinburne said his client told him the message was delivered half an hour after Rhinelander's papers in his annulment suit were filed in the Westchester Supreme Court at White Plains. The lawyer admitted that Mrs. Rhinelander had not retained the alleged message in full, but that a part of it had been turned over to him. The attorney said that before Rhinelander left the bride's home he arranged to keep in touch by telephone with her. "Mrs. Rhinelander had no telephone in her home," said Judge Swinburne, "but they had arranged for conversations outside of her home. Suddenly the calls ceased and the notes which he had been sending came to an abrupt halt, which led her to the belief that he is being kept from her against his will. The short note received last Wednesday was the first she had from him in several days. Mrs. Rhinelander remains at her home in New Rochelle, preparing her case." He predicted that trial of the suit would not come up before the January Court, and that, possibly, it might be on the calendar for February. He was asked about reports of a settlement. "There is only one way to settle this suit," he said, "now and that is by Mr. Rhinelander dropping the entire action and recognizing his wife. She does not want a money settlement. She is ill and she wants her husband back. "In our defense, we will neither affirm our deny that Mrs. Rhinelander is of Negro blood. They have made that charge and they will have to prove it. That has nothing to do with our end of the case. We are concerned with their charge of fraud and we shall concentrate on that. "Young Rhinelander knew this girl and her family for some time before marriage. He paid attention to her sister before he courted Alice. He knew the entire situation." The judge said that he had several letters, alleged to have been written by Rhinelander to the former Miss Jones, in which he addressed her as "Honey Bunch" and "Old Scout." He said they would be introduced into the record of the trial. MR. AND MRS. 1RA F. LEWIS ENTERTAINED Mr. and Mrs. Ira F.

The Washington Tribune Court Grants Injunction in Bloomingdale Justice Hoehling in the equity division of the District Superme Court issued a temporary injunction last Friday restraining Miss Marietta V. Scarborough, Edmund K. Fox and William M. Hicks from conveying No. 1921 First Street, Northwest, to a Negro or a person of Negro blood pending the hearing of the case involving this property, on its merits. He also enjoined them from conveying this property to any person for the purpose of having that person convey it to a Negro or a person of Negro blood. The suit for an injunction was brought by Henry K. Murphy, who lives at 42 Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest. In their bill of complaint they alleged that Miss Scarboroug, who is employed as a stenographer in the office of Edmund K. Fox, a real estate dealer, had contracted to buy this property from the heirs of Mary A. Stack, deceased. They claimed in the bill that there had appeared without interruption a covenant in every deed conveying property in the entire subdivision in which this property is located, to the effect that the lot or any improvements that might be made thereon should never be used or occupied for any purposes by Negroes or persons of Negro blood. In her answer Miss Scarborough disaffirmed the contract entered into by her with Mrs. Mary A. Stack. She said that she is under legal age and cannot be compelled to carry out the terms of this contract and that she will not attempt to take title to the property. Fox and Hick in their answer denied that title was taken or attempted to be taken by Miss Scarborough for their accommodation and convenience. Hicks admitted that he negotiated with a colored person for the purchase of this property, but said that the person with whom he talked never signed any written agreement and does not now desire to purchase the property. Both Hicks and Fox say that there is nothing in the covenant alleged in the bill, which would prevent Miss Scarborough conveying a fee simple title to the property, if she should carry out the terms of the contract and complete title in herself. They say that the covenant provides only against the use and occupation of the premises by colored persons but does not prevent a Negro from taking title. Hicks and Fox say that the neighborhood is rapidly becoming colored and that there are now at least eleven colored families living within the boundaries of this subdivision. The nature of the neighborhood has changed, they say, and if the court should construe the covenant to bar colored persons it would be inequitable and work a hardship on the owners of property because they could not sell to white persons. Because of its geographical location eight blocks of Howard University. It is bounded by the north side of T Street, northwest, between First and North Capitol Streets; the north side of U Street, Northwest; the west side of First Street, between Rhode Island Avenue and U Street, Northwest; and the west side of North Capitol Street between T and U Streets.
