Mrs. Dorothy E. Douglas Alleges Dr. J. W. Douglas Assaulted and Mistreated Her; Asks For Divorce
inent Mrs. Dorothy Alleges Dr. J Assaulted an Her; Asks
James W. Douglas, a druggist at Fourth and Elm Streets, Northwest, is being held in bond of $500 on a writ sued out by his wife, Mrs. Dorothy E. Douglas, who charged that the druggist was about to sell out his business and leave the District of Columbia in an effort to avoid his obligation to support her and her children.
Seeks Divorce
Alleging cruelty, Mrs. Douglas has filed suit in the equity division of the District Supreme Court against Dr. Douglas for a limited divorce and alimony. She is represented by Attorneys Lambert, Yeatman and Canfield.
She says in her bill of complaint that immediately after their marriage they took up their residence at 2348 Sixth Street, Northwest, and four or five months after their marriage he struck her in the face with his hand without just cause or excuse.
They moved to a residence at 600 U Street, Northwest, where they lived for four years, she says, and during their residence at this address, Dr Douglas practiced cruelty on her by hitting and striking her at different times.
They moved to 313 U Street, Northwest, where she says, he continued to assault her at different times when in anger.
In June, 1917, she charges, he assaulted her and became so abusive that she was compelled to leave him and go to live with her sister, where she remained about two mohths, returning to live with him only after he had promised her that he would do better and refrain from beating her.
Uses Liquor, She Says
She charges that Dr. Douglas is addicted to drink and that while under the influence of alcoholic liquors he beat and choked her.
On one occasion when she was able to leave the house she took her children to play near the reservoir and on her return, she says, she found that her husband had barred and locked their home so that she could not gain admission, as a result of which she was compelled to seek the aid of the district attorney.
Afterwards she says he solicited her to return to live at a residence owned by his mother in Sixty-first Street, near the District line. She alleges that his mother has now ordered her and her children out of this house and she has been compelled to seek quarters elsewhere.
She charges that for two weeks at a time Dr. Douglas has refused to give her any money for her support. She says that the last money she received from him was on March 20, 1925, when he handed her one dollar.
She says he told her he did not want her that only way to get rid of her was for him to take a place she would not live in back in the woods of Maryland so that she would be forced to leave him.
Dr. and Mrs. James W. Douglas were married on August 8, 1912, in the District of Columbia. They have three children, James W., Jr., 7 years; Daniel E., 5 years; and Audrey, 2 years.

Mr. William Henson offered resolutions which were adopted by the body and a copy ordered sent to the bereaved parents of the deceased. Prof. L. M. Hershaw stood with the student body in a two-minute silent prayer after which it was said, "It is Finished." Robert Brown, president; Chas. F. A. Longus, secretary.
WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, APRIL 18, 1925
FIVE ARRESTED FOR THEFTS AT HOWARD UNIV.
The cases of Edward Sullivan, 17, of 2728 Georgia Avenue, Northwest; Everett U. Dorsey, 17, of 724 Harvard Street, Northwest; Randolph Brooks, 18, of 1243 Sixth Street, Northwest, and James Reed, 1610 Eighth Street, Northwest, have been referred to the probation.
They pleaded guilty to a charge of petty larceny in connection with the stealing of wearing apparel from students of Storer College, Harpers' Ferry, W. Va., during a baseball game on the Howard University campus on April 4th.
Sullivan, Dorsey and Brooks told police at the eighth precinct station house that they were students. They are not listed, however, as students of Howard University and the university officials say that they are outsiders. Reed gave his occupation as a laborer.
They were arrested by police of the eighth precinct several days after the theft occurred.
George Mitchell Killed at Party
George Mitchell, 24, of 2629½ Douglas road, southeast, was ordered held for the action of the grand jury at an inquest held at the District morgue last Tuesday. He is charged with the murder of William Jenifer, 23, of 1257 Third Street, Southwest. From the testimony at the inquest it appears that the fatal shooting resulted from an argument over a crap game. Witnesses stated that a party was in progress at Mitchell's home last Sunday. At first there was dancing and drinking, and then the crap game was started. It was stated that Mitchell had a woman named Lillian West "cutting" the game when Jenifer inquired if both Mitchell and the woman were going to "cut" the game. This started the argument between the two men, which resulted in Mitchell getting his gun out of a trunk and firing five shots. The first shot, it was stated, was fired into the floor, but Jenifer advanced with his hand in his pocket and Mitchell fired the other shots. Three of them entered the left side of the man, one punctured the heart. He died on his way to the Casualty Hosnital
Michell was arrested early Monday morning. At the eleventh precinct police station, he made a confession. The man is unable to write and signed the confession by "his mark."
Pleads Not Guilty to Murder
Virginia May Burke, youthful bride, who is charged with first degree murder in connection with the fatal shooting of James Austin Young, pleaded not guilty when arraigned before Chief Justice McCoy in criminal court, No. 2 last Thursday morning. She is represented by Attorney James A. O'Shea. Mrs. Burke is nineteen years old. She was married only a few days before Christmas. On February 27 last, following a quarrel between her and Young at her home, 626 Thirteenth Street, Northeast, she went to his home at 1066 Bladensburg Road, Northeast, and shot him almost without warning it is alleged. He died on March 9.

GARDENS WILL FEATURE SUNDAY SCHOOL PICNICS
Among the many new features to be inaugurated at Suburban Gardens this season will be the Saturday Feature Sunday School Picnics. The management announces that already a number of the leading Sunday Schools have selected their picnic dates. The plan under which this feature is being promoted offers both an opportunity to give a picnic at a place designed for pleasure and recreation, and the opportunity for the Sunday School to share in the profits. A special representative has been annexed to handle this feature. Under the plan as outlined, all Sunday Schools will be given equal opportunity to share the park's offer for the season, as far as the number of Saturdays will permit.
The addition to the park this season of the "Kiddieland" will greatly add to the attractiveness of the park for the children. In this grove set apart for the kids will be found swings, slides, tents and a large sand pile. All rides as well as the drinks will be reduced to 5 cents for the benefit of the kids. By so doing the management feels that parents can afford to take the kids out for the day and give them a "big time" at less money than heretofore.
Interesting and amusing games will be arranged for the kids, such as bag racing, potatoe racing and the like.
Work is progressing on the new roadways throughout the park as well as the work of the general beautification of the grounds. From present indications Suburban Gardens will have the appearance of a new park.
H. U. Student Drops Dead
The remains of Arthur L. Boydkin, Howard University law student, who suddenly dropped dead last Thursday night, was shipped Tuesday to Brinkley, Ark., where interment will take place.
Services for him were held at the Tau Delta Sigma Fraternity House 913 Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest, last Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock. The Rev. Charles E. Stewart, pastor of Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, officiated.
Mr. Boydkin dropped dead suddenly last Thursday night, as he was entering the fraternity house. The coroner issued a death certificate, giving muscular disease of the heart as the cause of death.
He was a second year student in the Howard University law school. He was a member of the Tau Delta Sigma Fraternity. He was 27 years of age.
The body was prepared for shipment by Robert G. McGuire, an undertaker, of 1820 Ninth Street, Northwest.

The report given the board by Rev. S. J. Johnson, Secretary-Treasurer of the board, was considered one of the best reports ever made. Not only did Dr. Johnson give a comprehensive report of the monies received and disbursed, but he thoroughly analyzed all the figures, thereby making it very easy for the members to go over it.
Dr. Johnson's report showed that his department has done much during the past year in saving various churches of the demination. Loans have been made, interest paid and money advanced to keep many of the churches open.
The department received its maintenance money from its allotment of eight per cent of the dollar money and twenty-five cents of the Children's Day money. From dollar money last year, according to the report, $28,565.33 was received. From Children's Day money, $4,256.49 was received. Money from other sources received were from loans returned, $8834.00; from interest, $1,211.05; specific and conference anniversary collections $4273.46 total money received from all sources during year was $45,540.33.
The report further states that $54,455.30 was brought forward from the last fiscal year, plus $45,540.33, raised during the year, made a total of $99,995.63 handled during the year. After subtracting all disbursements for the year a net cash balance of $27,602.33 was left.
The report shows that $24,644.90 was made in loans to the various conferences during the year. $866.00 was made in the form of donations to various districts. Temporary loans totaled $8,500.00. Special investments made amounted to $2,280.25.
The total liabilities of the department are listed at $16,581.89; of this amount $16,108.61 is listed as preferred liabilities. Assets of the department are $630,690.50; minus the preferred liabilities leave a balance over liabilities of $614,108.61.
Dr. Johnson recommended to the board that all money coming to the department from the sale of abandoned church property, heretofore held in trust by the department for annual conferences, be pro-rated for funds and the same be paid out only on regular application from an organized church as other funds.
Importance was stressed as to the Bishops and Presiding Elders including Church Extension debt in their annual program.
Board members present were: Bishop W. D. Johnson, president; Revs. H. K. Spearman, A. J. Wilson, Chas. Bundy, W. H. Jameson, W. C. Williams, J. L. Butler, L. R. Nichols, L. V. Starkey, M. L. Pendergraff, S. H. Betts, C. E. Foreman, J. W. Washington, N. B. Moten, W. H. Jones, and Dr. S. J. Johnson.

OFFICE SEEKERS GETTING LITTLE ENCOURAGEMENT
the national outlook for the Negro in politics at this time is dark. Colored Republicans close to the administration are far from optimistic. The general belief among them is that President Coolidge will be as conservative in his appointments of them to responsible Government positions as he is in all other respects.
Different
Scenes in Washington now are different from those of four years ago when colored Republicans believed that the late President Harding would surpass all former Republican presidents in his recognition of them by appointments to offices requiring the advice and consent of the Senate.
It was believed then that he would abolish segregation in the Government departments, dismiss from the service Democratic officeholders who were responsible for conditions under the Wilson administration, and enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments, to the Federal Constitution as well as the Eighteenth.
In April of 1921 there were gathered in the Capital the leading colored Republicans from all sections of the country. They were seeking appointments to offices with which they thought a grateful party would reward them.
Disappointing
The last four years, however, proved disappointing. The only appointments to responsible offices made were Solomon P. Hood, minister to Liberia; Charles Anderson, collector of internal revenue, New York; Walter L. Cohen, comptroller of customs, New Orleans; Robert H. Terrell, judge of the municipal court of the District of Columbia; Arthur G. Free, recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia, and Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the Attorney General. There were also two or three minor appointments. They were as assistant United States attorneys in Boston, New York, Newark, Chicago and Cincinnati, and a special assistant to (Continued on page 6).

PROVEN WAY TO STOP FALLING HAIR and DANDRUFF
Dandruff, falling hair, itching scalp and baldness are enemies to scalp health and the growth of long, lustrous hair. Scientists admit they are "germ" diseases and to oure them the germ must surely be destroyed.
There's no longer reason for having poor, unhealthy scalp and dull lifeless hair. It has been proven that MADAM C. J.WALKER'S WONDERFUL HAIR PREPARATIONS are directly opposed to harmful

MASONIC MUSINGS
Two Automobiles Given Away
Mr. James F. Lee, 417 Park Road,
Northwest, and Mr. Charles Brown,
344 8th Street, Northeast were the
two lucky persons last Saturday night
in the distribution of prizes from the
Masonic Exposition and Circus held
at Convention Hall two weeks ago.
These two young men won the two
automobiles and as a result have
called the affair a huge success. The
silver loving cups which were to be
given to the winners of the several
contests, were given to the members
of the committee who had worked so
hard to make the exposition a success.
There were not enough entrants to make either of the contests
possible. Returns for tickets are still
being received by the president, Addison W. Chapman at 932 S Street,
Northwest.

Carlisles
Easily Defeats Alcoes in Final Game
A new District champion was crowned last Friday night at the Carino when Conway's Carlisle quintet ran roughshod over the Alcoes in the third and deciding game of the championship series, 40 to 34. The game was one of the best played here this season. There was plenty of scoring and this particular issue is popular with the fans.
The game was extremely late getting started because the team managers failed to decide upon the officials until game time. After much squawking it was decided that Thomas "Mouse" Johnson should handle the game single-handedly and he certainly did a nice job of it.
The Alcoes jumped out in front and enjoyed a eight-point lead the first half. Turner and Berry, repeatedly made almost impossible shots. The Carlisle machinery got started in the last half and led by "Humpty" Brown, a real dark horse, completely snowed the former champs under. Brown was the outstanding player of the game but every man that graced the court fought valiantly.

Six Clubs in Union League
Five local independent baseball clubs were represented at a meeting Sunday for the purpose of operating the Union League for another season. The following five clubs were represented: LeDroit Tigers, Oriental Tigers, Washington Giants, St. Cyprians, and Alexandria All-Stars. The Brookland Giants promised to be represented at the next meeting completing the six-club circuit.
R. Hayes Jones, acting president of the league the greater portion of last season, has been given the full reign for this year. W. H. Rose of Alexandria was elected vice-president and Andrew Allen, business manager. Plans for the season were discussed in detail. The first Sunday in May was decided upon as opening day. The greater portion of the league games will likely be played on the site at South Capitol and P Streets, S.W. The Deanwood Club, a member of the league at the start of last season will play independent ball this season and will not be a member of the league. The Teddy Bears are expected to apply for membership. No official word has been received from the Bears as yet.

Local Players Rated One, Two
Baltimore, Md., April—The 1924 ratings of the American Tennis Association, released this week, show numerous changes in the standing of the leading tennis players of the country. Edgar G. Brown, the 1923 champion, because of his suspension, was not eligible to compete in the Nationals or any other sanctioned tournament; and consequently was not considered by the Rating Committee. Eyre Saitch, who was No. 2 in the 1923 ratings, has been dropped to No. 3, and Ted Thompson has moved up to the place formerly occupied by the New York champion. Tally Holmes, the Washington veteran, is given No. 1 on the winning of the National Tournament, although he lost in the finals of both, the Philadelphia and Washington open tournaments. No. 4 goes to Allan Woolridge, former junior champion and the youngest player to ever receive a national rating. The rating of J. W. Anderson, the Virginia "freak," at No. 6 is worthy of comment, as Anderson is a new comer in "Big Time Tennis," and also plays with a decidedly unorthodox style.
In the Women's singles, Miss Isadore Channels, of Chicago, holds No. 1 despite her defeat by Miss Lula Ballard in the Philadelphia open tournament. However, this defeat was revenged when the Chicago crack decisively defeated Miss Ballard in the Nationals. Miss Nellie Nicholson, of Baltimore, another player with a freakisk style of play, occupies No. 3 position among the women, while Miss Dorothy Radcliffe, of Chicago, is rated at No. 4. Mrs. Wade, of New York, did not emcpete in the Nationals and consequently was not rated.
It is thought that the ratings this year will occasion very little discussion as the Rating Committee headed by Prof. Ralph V. Cook of Baltimore strictly followed the point system introduced in 1923 by the A. T. A. Under this system no player can be rated, who fails to compete in the Nationals and in at least one other open tournament.
The National Tournament this year will take place at Bordentown, New Jersey, during the week of August 24th to 29th and all of the rated players are expected to enter, along with ex-champion Brown, who will be fighting to regain his lost laurels. Brown's success will depend, in a great measure, upon the advance made by Ted Thompson, Woolbridge, and Saitch, as these are conceded to be his most dangerous competitors. Brown is now coaching Miss Ballard in Philadelphia and with the advantage of this training, and the confidence acquired by her success of last season, the Philadelphia left-handed star may be expected to give Miss Channels a most strenuous battle for first position in the ranks of female tennis players.
The ratings follow:
Tally Holmes, D.C.; Theodore (Ted) Thompson, D.C.; E. G. Saitch, N.Y.; Allan Woolridge, D.C.; Richard Hudin, Chicago; J. W. Anderson, Va.; E. R. Simmons, Ohio; Dr. J. MeGriff, Va.; George Smith, N.Y.; Dr. O. B. Williams, Chicago; E. Gomes, N.Y.; B. H. Hawkins, Ind.; B. M. Rhea, Baltimore; John Wilkerson, D.C.; R. W. Recklin, Baltimore.

Standing: Taylor, astt. mgr., Jones, Coates, Conway, mgr., sitting: Ev. Davis, Bradrick, capt., Ed. Davis.
The Howard baseball team returned Wednesday from a trip through North Carolina. Two games were lost out of three played. Livingstone was defeated 14 to 9 in a free hitting contest. Downing pitching in the pinches, Baylor's batting and a running catch by Payne featured this game. The locals dropped a 12-inning game at the Durham-State Normal by the score, 9 to 8. Slade was on the mound for Howard and pitched great ball after the first inning. Monroe's homer by Payne in the ninth with two on featured for Howard.
The game with the State Normal at Fayetteville was marred by the unsportsmanlike actions of the school's president. The Howard team claims that three "ringers" were used against them, no one of whom were members of the team. The feeling was extremely bitter during the whole time the team was at Fayetteville. Difficulty was experienced in collecting the team's guarantee. The Tarheelers' nosed out the Bisons, 11 to 10. The players say "never again" for Fayetteville, N. C.
Eastern League in Final Meeting
The Commissioners of the Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs met here in a lengthy session at the Christian Street Y. M. C. A. Colonel Strothers of Harrisburg Giants, Hammond Daniels of Bacharach Giants, Nat Strong of Brooklyn Giants, Geo. W. Robinson of the Wilmington Potomacs, Alex. Pompez of the Cuban Stars, Jim Keenan of the Lincoln Giants and Chairman Ed. Bolden of the Hilldale Club were all in their places.
The fact that some of the league clubs will play another member team more than ten games during the season, prompted the Commissioners to decide that the first ten games played between league clubs will go down in the official average and any other games in addition will be classed as exhibition contests.
Taylor and Cannady Report
With each club making a determined effort to bolster up its team, Colonel Strothers, pilot of the Harrisburg Giants, threw out lines for Walter Cannady, all around star who has seen much service with the Homestead Grays of Pittsburgh. Cannady has reported to the Colonel's camp and the versatile player has been used at shortstop in several exhibition games. This addition to the Harrisburg infield appears to be just what was lacking during the past season, it enables manager Charleston to station George Fiall at the hot corner, where he seems to perform to the best advantage. Ben Taylor, former manager of the Potomacs, has been assigned to first base. Dick Jackson at second rounds, out the infield.

Deanwood Wins from Sox in Eleventh
The Deanwood Athletic Club, triumphed over the Washington Black Sox, a newly organized semi-professional team, in a hotly contested overtime game, Sunday on the new playing field of the Deanwood Club to the tune of 6-5 in eleven innings. The game was a pitching duel between George ("Cat") Taylor, who allowed the losers only one bingle in the first seven innings and "Spike" Bland of the Black Sox. Other noteworthy features were the batting of "Tootie" Barbour, and Danny Watkins. The latter was responsible thru his bat for 5 of Deanwood's six runs. The playing of George Ford, at bat and in the field stood out for the Sox. The D. A. C. is challenging all teams in the District and vicinity, and especially the LeDroit Tigers, Teddy Bears, and St. Cyprians.

Howard Prepares For Mammoth Meet
Washington awaits DeHart Hubbard, the sensational athlete of the University of Michigan, who recently tied 2 world records at 60 and 50 yds. respectively. He will compete at the National Open Championship Meet at Howard University, Washington, D.C., May 2nd and it is here that he hopes to realize his fondest hope—the establishment of a new world record for the running broad jump. For several years Hubbard has been America's premier broad jumper and consistently registering 24 feet or better and once leaping 25 feet $ \frac{1}{2} $ inches, which at the time was just 1 $ \frac{1}{2} $ inches short of the world record set by Ned Courdin, the Harvard University "wonder." Hubbard will do his best at the Howard meet.
Ned Gourdin will be on hand and claims to be ready to turn in a real effort. Gourdin has organized an athletic club in Boston and has entered a half dozen athletes all of whom are reported ready for their best performances. Of course Gourdin is anxious to beat Hubbard who forced him to be content with second place honors at the last Olympic games. Coach Steve Farrell of Michigan figures Hubbard god for a new record in the running broad jump and goes so far as to predict that he will even reach the 26 feet mark. The present record is 25 feet 6 inches, made by Bob Legendre of Georgetown at the Olympic games last summer.
Fort Myer is entering a squad of athletes who rank with the best in the Army. Andy Frazier requests entry blanks for his Springfield (Mass.) Club, while Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, New York, and Baltimore are yet to be heard from. Any persons desiring to enter the Howard University open meet May 2, may do so by communicating with L. L. Watson, director, Department of Physical Education, Howard University, Washington, D. C.

HOWARD RE-OPENS WITH
"BROADWAY RASTUS"
Howard Theatre, which is now under
new ownership, leased by New York
Theatre Corporation
"Broadway Rastus" opens at the
Howard Theatre, Monday, April 20th,
for one week. In its details, dancing,
singing and general entertainment
proclivities are outstanding. It is a
fast spirited all-colored piece that has
caused more favorable comment than
any other musicians show of recent
years, in the cities where it has
appeared.
An all-colored cast provides the
best in spirited dancing. The agility
of the ankle constitutes everyone's
most prominent recollection of the
BLANCHE THOMPSON,
Star of "Broadway Rastus" coming
to the Howard Theatre
show after they have seen it. But before all others in the dancing line stands Lloyd Mitchell, Flo Brown, Aurora Greely and Lily Yuen. They have several dance numbers that are the peer of any group of dancers to be found in any one musical show. The singing contingent led by Cecil Rivers, the famous Silver-tone Quartette tenor, styled by many the "Chocolate John Steel" and John Henderson the favorite of all. The comedy too is note-worthy with Irvine C. Miller and Gallie D Gaston who from curtain to curtain supply enough laughs for two musical comedies.
The chorus is composed of the girls who were members of the Broadway success "Liza" which boasted of the world's greatest chorus during its run. These girls have remained together and are known as the "Liza Girls" and are the fastest stepping group to be found in any musical show.

It was made in the remote plains of Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico and deals with the exciting struggles of the Texas ranchers to drive their herds through hostile Indians, floods, fire and bandits north to the Western limits of the new transcontinental railroads. It is a tale that every movie fan likes with nothinig over done.
Tuesday will find Wesley Barry in "The Country Kid.' Wednesday and Thursday, Anna Q. Nillson and James Kirkwood in "The Top of the World" while the week will be rounded out with "The Fearless Lover" on Friday and Saturday.

ACTS MAKE HIT AT LINCOLN

INTER-CLASS MEET A THRILLER
The first annual interclass track and field meet under the management of the Director of Department of Physical Education at Howard University, Washington, D.C., was run off Thursday, April 9th. It was a thrilling meet with the freshmen and seniors running neck and neck for top honors. The "dope" figured the freshmen to win with an abundance of raw material and it was not far wrong as is evidenced by the score: Seniors 44, Freshmen 42, Juniors 24, Sophomore 16.
"Big" Anderson, the mainstay in field events and former Captain of the varsity track team was the high point man, totaling 20 points. He was first in the shot, discus, javelin, and hammer. Harry Bright, Captain of this year's varsity track team, proved his superiority in the quarter- and half-mile events amassing 10 points. Rembert Jones of last year's squad was equally successful in the 100- and 220- yard dashes.
The Sophomore Pendleton pulled a big surprise when he won the mile event in spectacular style over the senior best bet, "Silent" Parker. Warring pulled a pretty nose dive over the last hurdle in the low hurdle race and this spill gave the Freshmen all three places. The Freshmen were in a class by themselves in the pole vault, with "Texas" Shelvin leading. This kid Shelvin was a real sensation taking second in both the 220-yard and 440-yard dashes over "Country" Hill, who last year gave promise of being a find in these events.
winners with a large loving cup which will be appropriately inscribed and remain the property of the Senior Class for one year. This cup is to be awarded annually to the winners of the Annual Inter-Class Meet.
MEDICAL SCHOOL vs. COLLEGIANS THIS AFTERNOON
FORMER stars of the underpath at Howard University Medical School, Washington, D.C., were on hand to see the "Hill" boys compete against each other last Thursday, April 9, in a thrilling inter-class meet. They were astonished at the performances of their less experienced brothers but figure they can take point honors in a dual meet this afternoon on the campus at 1 o'clock.
The "Hill" boys figure to clean up in the field events with "Big" Anderson, Dan Miller, and "Texas" Shelvin showing the way while the Medies are counting on Nichols, the undisputed distance champion to win the mile and two-mile events; Wyndon in the half; Jason in the quarter and Carter in the sprints.
ST. PAUL WALLOPS NORTH CAROLINA STATE (Br L. L. Whitehead)
Russell Field, Lawenceville, Va., April 13—St. Paul had little trouble in walloping the North Carolina State Normal School of Elizabeth City here today by a score of 10 to 0. A big Easter Monday crowd witnessed the game, which was featured by poor playing and bad judgment on the part of the visitors and an avalanche of hits and a plenty of good fielding by St. Paul. St. Paul used fifteen men in the tilt. Lee's and Matthew Wallace's pitching was all right. Quinn Covington Ar-

EDWARD BLUITT DEAD
Edward Theson Bluitt, age 25,
youngest brother of Stephen B. Bluitt,
prominent young fraternal man of this city and Texas, died Wednesday,
April 8th, after an illness of six weeks. With him when the end came was his faithful brother who had maintained a constant vigil at the bed-side since the beginning of his illness. The unusual devotion of these two brothers to each other, was remarkable.
The deceased came to Washington late in the fall of last year and entered the Junior College of Howard University, attending the evening schools while following his regular employment during the day. His earlier education was completed in the State College of Texas, in which state he previously resided. In addition to the brother living here, the deceased leaves to mount their loss, another brother in the mid-west, a father, sister, and a host of friends in his native state, among whom is a sadden childhood sweetheart.
The obseques were private and held Friday, April 10, 1:30 p.m. from the funeral parlors of The Thomas Frazier Co. Rev. Chas. E. Stewart officiating, assisted by Dr. S. J. Johnson, Church Extension Secretary, A.M.E. Church, life long friend of the family.
Barry Farm Citizens Elect E. F. Hoffman
The Barry Farm Citizens Association at its regular meeting held last Tuesday night in St. John Methodist M. E. Church, Stanton Road, Southeast, elected its president Mr. Elsie S. Hoffman as its candidate for membership on the Citizens' Advisory Counsel. Mr. Hoffman is considered one of the most alert workers in any of the associations. Through his efforts many improvements have been made in that section including the opening up of Barry Farms.
The association also sent a letter of thanks to Col. J. Franklin Bell for his plan for bettering sanitary conditions in the suburb. A dental clinic at the James G. Birney School was asked for. Dr. Sylvester Smith and Henry S. Phillips were appointed to supervise athletics of all kinds in that section.
A resolution was passed extending condolence to families of the deceased members, Mr. James E. Edwards and Mrs. Ellen Stewart. The association also asked for the assignment of two traffic policemen for duty in the suburb.
Grace White Sues
The damage suit which was brought by Grace E. White against Richard C. Richardson for $5000 came up before Justice Bailey in the District Supreme Court, last Friday, April 3rd. Attorney Louis Ottenberg, representing Mr. Richardson, presented several motions and asked that they be
PAGE FIVE granted. Attorney Joseph N. Jones, counsel for Mrs. White, asked that they be denied and was upheld by the court. Justice Bailey then ordered the defendant to plead to the declaration. The case will come up some time this summer.
H. U. Graduate Asst. States Attorney
Chicago, Ill.-Alonzo E. Tancil, 3807 Giles Ave., graduate of Howard University in 1919, has been appointed to the position of assistant state's attorney of Cook County. Mr. Tancil was born in Mound City, Ill., and passed the Illinois bar in 1922. He is married and has a daughter. His wife was formerly Miss Rena Burrell of Washington, D.C. Both are well known in social circles of Chicago and Washington.
dustrial centers of the country report an inflow of sturdy southern Negroes who at once become applicants for placement in the factories and mills. It is stated that employment and problems of health and housing have increased in all the northern industrial centers, and that the migration supply indicates that it will exceed the demand in practically every northern industrial city during the coming season.
State and. Federal authorities, as well as privately-controlled agencies are watching the migration movement which is purely a voluntary one on the part of the Negroes, and are cooperating with each other in the hope of diminishing to a minimum all problems which may arise because of this spring's migratory movement, which will probably be on large dimensions.

Miss Nannie Burroughs has located here an institution for women and girls which partially fills a very essential role in the progress of the Race. It is the only school of its kind for our women and girls which is not located in the heart of Dixie. It is the one institution which seeks to meet the needs of our weaker sex. The changing conditions which are causing a growing and more wide distribution of the Race throughout the section above the old Mason and Dixon line makes more apparent the needs of a school of the Nannie Burroughs type.
Where in the Southland a whole family is usually employed at one place, keeping it under the guiding influence of its head—however poor it may be, the Northland has a more diversified employment, consequently necessitating the separation of mothers and daughters. Being unable to adjust themselves quickly to the rapid pace of the city, the bread-earning mothers find their children liabilities. The children, as a result, suffer through the lack of the training essential to their well-being. It is here that the National Training School for Women and Girls steps in, enrolling them and adjusting its courses of training and development to the special needs of the individual girl, so that a high type of character may result. It is from such a school that come the women who have done the most good in mission and reformatory work, slum and social settlement.
Furthermore, the National Training School removes the necessity of our young girls being exposed to the moral and social evils generally attendant to living in rooming and lodging houses. It relieves the mothers of anxiety and builds within the girls the moral stamina so necessary to combat the adversities of life. It is the most constructive and successful piece of work of any Race woman; for it instills the principles of true womanhood, develops sound judgment—correlating its literary and vocational training courses so as to develop the powers of mind and skill of hand simultaneously. It turns out a product which is a sturdy, dependable, well-rounded woman, keen of vision, alert of action, modest in deportment and deft of hand.
The $25,000 asked for could quickly and readily be had, if each of us would contribute a five-cent piece. Give all you can, but be sure to give a nickle. It is worthy of any amount.

We urge them to participate in such games as appertain to betterment of their health, but we are forced to call attention to the monster, segregation.
The most prominent members of the Negro golf clubs here which use the government-owned golf links are members of the professions. While we do not object to their creating an interest in the game, we do detest the fact that it is played under segregated conditions. If influential members of the Race should withdraw from the links, it would be much easier to remove the bars. As long as they flock to the golf links we can not substantiate the cry that it is undesirable. They are the criterions, the ones whom the lower element try, in this particular, to emulate. Let us boycott the segregated golf links.
After all, golf would appear to be a sport of such a character that one might well forego it if it must be indulged in under humiliating and discreditable conditions. If golf devotees of color do not feel able to provide a place of their own they might well seek diversion and exercise in some other form.

Three of them, however, have lately been separated from the Government payrolls. They are John W. Schenck at Boston, Oliver Randolph at Newark, and Alexander H. Martin at Cleveland.
Besides these appointments, the Labor Department sent a commission composed of W. H. C. Brown, Charles E. Mitchell, Jefferson S. Coage and George Woodson to the Virgin Islands to investigate conditions there, and an all-colored personnel was put in charge of the United States Hospital for disabled Negro veterans at Tuskegee, Alabama.
Campaign Promises Discounted Six weeks, however, after Calvin Coolidge has taken the oath of office of President of the United States by mandate of the people, the late campaign promises of what would be done for colored Republicans in the way of appointments to responsible offices and the abolishment of segregation in the Government departments are discounted, and those through whom the promises were made, are not so hopeful of the recognition they themselves thought would be theirs.

Aaron E. Malone, of St. Louis, Mo., and Ernest G. Tidrington, of Evansville, Ind., are applicants for this position.
Meanwhile, Frederick C. Hicks, who was in charge of the eastern headquarters of the Republican National Committee during the last campaign, is appointed Alien Property Custodian by President Coolidge to succeed Colonel Thomas W. Miller.
An Enigma
At present there is no indication of an early appointment of a colored person to a responsible Government position or the abolishment of segregation in the Government departments. Coolidge is an enigma, however, and there is no foretelling what he may do during his term as President of the United States in his own right.

WHAT DAMROSCH SAID TO
ROLAND HAYES
On presenting the Spingarn medal to Roland Hayes recently, Walter Damrosch, noted musician, said: "The civilization of the Negro dates back only a few hundred years, and the effort of our own race to give them an equal chance with us does not date back more than 50 years. But through all these dark hours of their beginning in Africa, and through the days of slavery, trials and sufferings they have always kept alive an intense love of their music. During this period of their growth music was their only recreation and only real outlet for their emotions.
"They had music to accompany their religious exhortations and their dances and their laments. In these last 25 years they have made great strides in the cultivation of civilized or European music and among these Roland Hayes is one of the most eminent, because he has really penetrated into the emotional and spiritual content of the music of our great masters.
"And I for one have taken an interest and pleasure in his renderings of the songs of Schubert and Schuman as if he were one of the celebrated exponents of song of the white race.
"Roland Hayes is to me a striking proof of the fact that whether white or black we are all God's children, and I herewith take pleasure in handing him the famous Spingarn medal, which is donated only to those members of the colored race who have achieved real distinction."

Training School a Community Asset
The National Training School for Women and Girls is a real business asset to Washington. The institution has a splendid Business Department, from which it has sent out some of the best stenographers and typists in the country. Several are employed by local insurance companies. Some schools teach business but do not practice what they preach. The Training School is making its own pudding, selling some of it, and eating some of it. It sends out trained business women, but it operates a public Laundry and gives employment to over twenty men and women of Washington. The Training School Laundry pay-roll for Washington alone is over $350 a week. A school that gives over $1,500.00 a month to local people through a purely business feature—not including those on the regular faculty—is a real community asset and has a real claim on the community. The Training School is not a government school, and, as a private institution, gives back to the public, through its economic program, in actual dollars and cents, a large sum of money every week. A number of the Laundry employees are buying their homes and getting ahead in the world.
Twelve Washington churches are represented among the laundry employees. Aside from providing for the education of our girls, the institution is setting a fine example in building business and opening new avenues of employment. An educational plant of this kind is a real community asset.

No wonder that these human ma-

such development.

I wish to thank my friends for

ges of cheer, and the tender expres-
sions of sympathy sent during the re-
cent illness and subsequent death of
my late brother, Edward T. While I
have not had the opportunity to make
‘a personal reply to all that came,
they have none-the-less been apprecia-
ted. They have gone a long ways in
healing the wounds of my. broken
heart.

THE POTATO
It has often been asserted by the

who can cook a “potato to perfection”
can cook anything. It would thus
seem that as
there are so many

tatoes for the ta-

however, aware
that this knowl-
edge in many
cases is limited
to only about half
a dozen varieties of cooking potatoes,
indeed I fear there aré a good many
who only know but two. or three ways,
_ This common vegetable, the potato,
was once regarded as-a luxury, has
now become our cheapest and most
used vegetable.
Although: opinions differ somewhat,
as to the dietic value of the potato,
the fact remains that it appears upon
ithe family table in some form or an-
other at least twice a day, and- in
‘some households oftener. Indeed: we
‘know that among the poor, in certain
parts, the potato .often forms the
staple food.

training or is it fear of the face. void
of color?
dtist a few months age one of our
teachers, not only a teacher, but prin-
jcipal, whose very position should de-
mand respect, gave a very interesting
nd educational: picture entertain-
ment, for the benefit of both parent
‘and pupil. But it was like “love's 1a-
bor lost.” The order was simply dis-
gusting. No attention was paid to
repeated requests for order.
On another occasion of ‘very recent
fdate, # similar gathering was in the
same auditorium only for a different
entertainment. ‘The crowd was large,
some were,uncomfortable because of
having to stand a long time, but not-
withstanding.all this, as soon as the
white person directing appeared in
front of the audience, raising both
arms, not saying a word, silence
reigned over all the place. Then it
was that the time was announced to

not forget that the common things of
