ENFORCEMENT OF NEW LAW CAUSES STRIKE AT HOWARD Big Musicale Comes to Abrupt End When Race Singers Walk Out as Protest Against Segregation Insult to Negroes is Resented by Many Foreign Delegates. Women to Place International Body on Record First in Local Circulation. Vol. 4, No. 50 ENFORCE Big Mu Singers Insult to Neg Many Foreign Place Intern The American Music Festival billed as one of the banner events of the meeting of the Quinquennial Convention of the International Council of Women, held in the new Washington Auditorium, was brought to an abrupt end last Tuesday night when the colored participants on the program walked out as a protest to the segregating methods used in seating Negroes in the audience. This musical program was intended to show the growth of typical American music, and was made up of whites, Indians and Negroes. The Negro part was the biggest part of the program. Hundreds of people, including nearly all of the foreign delegates, came especially to hear this part. However, when it was reached on the program, Miss Hallie Q. Brown, chairman of the committee, getting up this part of the program and representing the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, was forced to make the solemn announcement that because of humiliating segregation being practiced by the management, the Negro part of the program could not be given as the singers had left the building. With this announcement, every Negro in the vast audience arose as if given instructions, and quietly marched out. They were followed by many foreigners who were also indignant at the treatment given the Negroes. As the first part of the program had been concluded, the meeting came to an abrupt close with thousands of people still wondering what it was all about. The participants who refused to appear included the Howard University Choral Society, Howard University Glee Club, Richmond Treble Clef, Hampton Institute Choir and the Amphion Glee Club. All totaled, this group was composed of about 200 singers. A hint that segregation would be practiced was received about two weeks ago. When the tickets were first placed on sale, they refused to sell colored people any of the choice seats. This brought a vigorous protest from the officials of the colored women's organization. In order to make sure that this policy would not be pursued, a letter was written to Mrs. Philip North Moore, president of the American Council of Women, protesting and further stating positive assurances must be given that there would be no segregation, or a wire would be sent to all the singers instructing them not to come. In answer to this ultimatum, Mrs. Moore wrote, stating there would be no segregation. On this written assurance, Miss Brown and the other women proceeded with their work. However, Monday, the ticket sellers at the Willard Hotel before reserving seats over the phone would ask if the applicants were white or colored. In some cases the applicants would tell them and in most cases would not. Many tickets were sold, including all classes. However, when these ticket holders appeared at the auditorium Tuesday night for the performance, practically all of them were seated on the left side of the building. Members of the singing group, who brought their parents and friends with them, on accompanying them to their seats, discovered this and called it to the attention of the women in charge. At first it was denied, so special investigators were sent into the gallery to find out. They reported it was true. This news spread like wild fire among the singers, who were quartered in the basement awaiting The Washington Tribune Published Weekly EMENT O usicale s Walk groes is Res gn Delegates. national Bod their part on the program. Several women took the lead in denouncing the insult and demanded that all red-blooded Negroes refuse to sing as a protest. Within a few minutes the walk-out had been organized. Mrs. Hallie Q. Brown was told of the matter, and a few minutes later, she made the now famous announcement that the colored part of the program would not be given as the singers had left the building. Every Negro left the audience quietly. Various members of the white group tried to persuade them to give the program and fight out the matter of the insult the next day, but they were only given an emphatic no. Hundreds of the foreign delegates expressed themselves as being indignant at the treatment accorded the Negroes, and complimented them on their courage and wise judgment. A Tribune reporter in the lobby, heard several say that they were disgusted with America and never expected to return. In the general excitement, Miss Brown made the announcement that the colored singers would appear the next day at the Howard Theatre at two p.m. However, the next day the executive committee of the National Association of Colored Women met and decided that the singers should not appear. Miss Brown was told of their views and finally agreed to call it off. Hundreds of people, however, called at the Howard Theatre for the performance. The National Association of Colored Women is now and has been for many years a member of the National Council of Women. The organization paid $500 for its membership in the council. Several women paid $100 for patron tickets. All of these women are members of the National and International body in good standing. Colored women have been members of the International body for years. At the last quinquennial which was held in Norway, the late Mrs. Mary B. Talbert attended as a delegate. The attempt on the part of the management of the auditorium to put the blame for the segregation on the ticket sellers met a cool ha, ha, from all the colored women. The auditorium was rented by the International Council for the convention, therefore, the management had nothing to do with seating of the people. They simply had to carry out the wishes of those in charge. Louis J. Fosse, manager of the auditorium, is one of the original signers of the covenant covering the property in the 1700 block of S Street, Northwest. He was also one of the star witnesses in the Curtis (Continued on page 9) SHELBY J. DAVIDSON IS IMPROVING Shelby J. Davidson, of 1333 R Street, Northwest, who suffered a slight stroke of paralysis last Friday while driving his automobile, is slowly recovering. He is at Freedmen's Hospital. Evidently Mr. Davidson suffered the stroke while driving and lost control of his car and ran into a lamp post. After his identity was established he was taken to his home unconscious and later removed to the hospital.

SATURDAY, MAY 9, 1925 PRESIDENT COOLIDGE INVITED TO MU-SQ-LIT A committee from the Mu-So-Lit Club called at the White House last Thursday and extended an invitation to President Coolidge to deliver an address at the club at his pleasure.

The members of the committee were Perry W. Howard, Republican National Committeeman; Dr. J. Hayden Johnson, a member of the Board of Education of the District of Columbia; Mortimer M. Harris, an attorney and real estate dealer, and George H. Murray, a member of the faculty of the Dunbar High School. STATE DEPT.BOWS TO SEGREGATION IN NEW SCHOOL STATE DEPT.BOWS TO SEGREGATION IN NEW SCHOOL A flagrant case of discrimination on account of race by Government officials has just leaked through the veil of secrecy behind which the State Department moves in all its activities. Negro Shifted to Africa It concerns the way in which Clifton R. Wharton, of Massachusetts, was shunted off to Liberia in order that there would be no colored person to attend the Foreign Service School, which was opened on April 20, last, for the training of new appointees in the diplomatic and consular service. The President on May 24, 1924, approved an act of Congress which provided for the reorganization and improvement of the Foreign Service. This act authorized the President to prescribe certain rules and regulations for administering the Foreign Service. School for Diplomats Pursuant to the Act of May 24, 1924, President Coolidge issued an executive order on June 7, 1924, which, among other things, provided for the establishment of a Foreign School for the instruction of new appointees. This executive order provided that new appointments to the Foreign Service shall be to the unclassified grade only, and no promotions to a higher grade shall be made except on the recommendation of the Foreign Service Personnel Board, with the approval of the Secretary of State, after the completion of one full term in the Foreign Service School. One Year Term The executive order further provided that "the term of instruction in the Foreign Service School is one year which shall be considered a period of probation during which the new appointees are to be judged as to their qualifications for advancement and assignment to duty."

It is the only organization of colored women in the world that will be represented in the quinquennial.

MRS.J.W.DOUGLAS GIVEN A DIVORCE BUT NO ALIMONY GLAS ORCE MONY CORONER NEVITT TO PUT NEGROES ON JURY Justice William Hitz, in equity court No. 2, last Wednesday awarded Mrs. Dorothy E. Douglas a limited divorce from her husband, Dr. James W. Douglas, a pharmacist who conducted a drug store at the corner of Fourth and Elm Streets, Northwest. She was also given temporary custody of their children, James W., Jr., 7 years; Daniel E., 5 years, and Audrey, 2 years. She was permitted to leave them temporarily in the care of her sister, Mrs. Francis Evans Allen, in Wilmington, Delaware. Justice Hitz, however, stated that he thought that the children should be brought back into the District of Columbia whenever either one or both of the parents were able to care for them properly. The question of alimony was also held in reserve. The court took the position that if it should award Mrs. Douglas a proper amount to care for herself and the three children, it would be utterly impossible for Dr. Douglas to pay it in his present financial plight. It was shown during the trial that th edrug business which Dr. Douglas had been conducting recently, had not been paying and consequently Dr. Douglas had three chattel mortgages against it and was in dire financial (Continued on page 3) --- --- $ \textcircled{c} $ A.

POLICEMAN SALKELD TRANSFERRED The circumstances surrounding the killing of Raymond Milberry, world war veteran, on Sunday, April 25, by Policeman Watson Salkeld, who was exonerated by a coroner's jury on the following Monday, are being investigated by the district attorney's office with a view to presenting the case to the grand jury, it was stated at the office of Major Peyton Gordon, the district attorney last Tuesday. Following his exoneration, Policeman Salkeld who was suspended pending the inquest, was reinstated to duty and transferred from the Second to the Twelfth precinct. According to a letter received by The Tribune from Coroner J. Ramsey Nevitt, M.D., Negroes will be called upon to serve on the Coroner's Jury, Heretofore, no Negroes have served on this jury. This jury must pass on many cases where the rights of Negroes are involved. With the change promised by Mr. Nevitt, a better jury is assured the public. The text of the letter is as follows: Office of the Coroner Washington, D.C. May 1, 1925 William O. Walker, Dear Sir: Your communication of April 29th, 1925, relative as to "why Negroes are never called to serve on Coroner's Juries," I may say that the Coroner of this district does not object to calling of colored men to serve upon the Coroner's Jury. Furthermore, I will personally see to it that reputable colored citizens will have an opportunity to serve the District of Columbia in this capacity. J. RAMSEY NEVITT, M.D., Coroner, D. C.

HOWARD Race negation WALK OUT AT HOWARD CLOSES MOST OF CLASSES The student body at Howard University went on strike at 2 p.m. Thursday, May 7th, when the Faculty failed to abrogate the rule requiring students to be suspended if they had 20 absent marks in Physical Education. The Faculty reinstated the five suspended students but continued the rule. As the students had asked that this rule be abrogated by 1:00 o'clock Thursday, and it was not, the strike was called. The campus was placarded and the strike was on. Friday morning a committee of the Alumni Association composed of attorneys Thos. Walker, J. Franklin Wilson, Mrs. Marie Madre Marshall, Jas. C. Carter, M. M. Morton, Thos. A. Johnson and Dr. W. L. Smith went to the University in an effort to adjust the grievance. President Durkee refused to be seen but his secretary stated that a general faculty meeting would be held at noon to take up the matter. The seniors ranks are being augmented every hour. Very few classes have any students. It is estimated that over three-fourths of the students are out. A surprising number of girls are out in support of the men. The Students Council is calling the strike and acting for the student body. The five Howard University students, who were suspended because they had been absent without permission twenty times from drill periods and physical education classes, have been reinstated, F. D. Wilkinson, registrar of Howard University stated Thursday. The reinstatements were made because of irregularities in checking up the number of times each suspended student had been absent without permission from military science and (Continued on page 5) SUBURBAN GARDENS TO OPEN NEXT SATURDAY Next Saturday, May 16th, the Suburban Gardens, located at 59th and Hayes Streets, Northeast, will open its 1925 season.

HEALTH AND WELFARE CLINIC OPENED Under the auspices of the Metropolitan Church on R Street, near Thirteenth, N.W., a public health and welfare clinic has been opened. Dr. M. W. D. Norman, the pastor, and his board of deacons are indeed to be congratulated for this advanced step taken in the interest of better health and living conditions among the colored people of this city. The clinic is under the direction of Dr. Algernon B. Jackson, Director School of Public Health, Howard University. Associated with Dr. Jackson are Dr. E. C. Terry, associate professor of medicine, and Dr. Frank R. Cook, associate professor Diseases of Children, Howard University, School of Medicine, and Dr. E. Otho Peters, druggist. As the demand grows other specialists will be added to the staff, from the many doctors who have expressed a desire to serve. When it is considered that the death rate in Washington among our race is so very much higher than among the whites, this movement must be regarded as a step in the right direction. The clinic is open daily except Sunday at the Metropolitan Church between the hours of three and six oclock each afternoon. This is an opportunity for everyone to get a complete examination at least once a year. Examinations are free. To keep well is much better and easier than to get well.

Orme, the beloved daughter of Mrs. Ellen Orme and the late Samuel I. Orme, was born in Washington, D. C., about 1875. She was educated in the public schools of the District of Columbia. She was always noted for her brilliancy and was not satisfied unless at the head of her classes. She started as a first grade teacher and climbed up to the position of Group Principal, which position she held at her death. She was for a long time principal of Sumner and Magruder School; later Cleveland and Garrison until the latter was remodeled. She was loyal, self-sacrificing, courteous and sympathetic; loved by pupils, parents and teachers. The community and schools suffer a great loss in the death of a wonderful character like Mary M.

SHRINERS HOLD GET-TOGETHER FEAST On April 30th, Mecca Temple held what has been termed a "Get Together" Meeting at Grice's Hall 12th and R Streets, N.W., which marks a new epoch in her history. This meeting was largely attended and in the main the Nobles measured up to the standard of Shrinedom. Noble Walter T. Dixon, chairman of the affair was unable to attend owing to a serious illness, delegated Noble John R. Ashton (Capt. of Mecca's Patrol) and Noble Stephen Bluitt to act in his stead. Noble Bluitt playing the roll of Toastmaster. The toastmaster was at his best on this occasion and played his part with credit to himself and also the Temple. Under the supervision of Noble Ashton assisted by Noble John Pye, William N.

Secretary Charles E. Hughes on June 9, 1924, prescribed certain rules to govern the school. One of these rules provided that each Foreign Service pupil shall be assigned to one of the divisions or bureaus of the Department of State, where he will report for duty when not attending classes. Examinations for admission to the Foreign Service are held twice yearly in the months of January and July. Wharton Passes Examination In conformity with these provisions of the Act of May 24, 1924, and the executive order of June 7, 1924, an examination was held in January last. Out of a field of one hundred candidates, the first class consisting of nineteen young men and one young woman was chosen. Among the nineteen successful young men was a colored youth, Clifton R. Wharton, who had been serving as a law clerk in the State Department since August 16, 1924. His admission to the Foreign Service and prospective attendance of the Foreign Service School constituted a grave diplomatic problem. It had to be solved before the school was opened and the students learned the first principles of diplomacy. The faculty saw visions of political complications if the proper course were not taken. Secret Diplomacy The veteran diplomats of the department were called together in solemn and secret consultation. In fact, the consultations were so secret that the press was not even given an inkling that a perplexing interracial problem was under consideration by the State Department. Out of the solemn conclaves, a solution finally came. Mr. Wharton was graduated forthwith. Prior to the opening of the Foreign Service School and without taking a day of the year's required training, he was solemnly and ocularly recited a ropemessy.

To freeze the cream, set the can in the center of the tub on the pin on which it revolves, cover and pack with ice and salt, in proportion of one part of salt to from three to four parts of ice. Start the machine, or turn the crank at a slow, even speed; a slow motion freezes the cream more rapidly than a fast motion. Too much speed is often injurious to the cream, and is liable to churn it into butter, or make it course. The time of freezing differs according to the mixture and the strength of the brine, but it can be timed by the clock, if uniform mixtures are used.

Wing, Chef, Hotel Roosevelt ICE CREAM MAKING The best richest ice cream made double cream the addition yolks of egg ar and flav while some cheapest cocial cream made from only, without and are this The best and richest ice creams are made from double cream, with the addition of yolks of eggs, sugar and flavorings, while some of the cheapest commercial creams are made from milk only, without eggs and are thickened with gelatin, corn starch, arrowroot, sago and other preparations. The richest ice creams are known as Neapolitan or Italian creams, and also as French cream. The original creams of this class were frozen in the old time hand freezers and worked with the spatula. This process makes a firm and more solid cream, and is in general use in Europe, while over here the patent freezers are used, which produce a more bulky and lighter kind of ice cream. The rich ice creams which contain eggs and cream frozen in patent freezers are also termed New York creams and the lighter creams, made from the best of cream, but without eggs, Philadelphia creams. Select a good ice cream freezer. There are good ones, and others not worth the material of which they are made.

They get rusty and discolor the creams and ices. The ice tub should be wide enough to have four inches or more of space around the freezing can for the ice and salt. Have two holes made in the tub; a small half inch hole about one inch below the top of the freezing can, which is left open during the freezing to prevent the brine from getting into the cream. The other a larger hole, near the bottom, with a plug in it to let out the brine. When the cream is frozen, remove the dasher, scrape down and work with the spatula. One kind of ice cream can be made into different varieties after it is frozen to this point by adding crushed fruits, nuts, colorings and flavor. After this the cream may be transferred in packing cans, or left in the freezing can and packed in ice and salt for one hour or more to ripen. This makes the cream richer and of better flavor. Receipt for Philadelphia Ice Cream 1 gal. pure cream; 4 eggs; $1\frac{1}{2}$ lb. sugar; flavoring; mix well together cold; flavor with vanilla, lemon or orange; freeze as directed.

Mr. Hunt is one of three colored Capital Stock $100,000 SEE US FIRST men in the United States Consular service. The other two are William J. Yerby, of Memphis, Tennessee, consul at Dakar, Senegal, and James G. Carter, of Brunswick, Georgia, consul at Tananarive, Madagascar. The first connection of Mr. Hunt with the Foreign Service was in 1898 when he was appointed a clerk at the consulate at Tananarive, Madagascar. He was later promoted to vice consul. In 1901 he was appointed consul by the late President William B. McKinley. His commission is said to be one of the last signed by President McKinley at Conton, Ohio, shortly before he started on the trip to Buffalo, N.Y., where he was assassinated. Mr. and Mrs. Hunt arrived in this country on the Steamer France on April 16. They spent about ten days in New York before coming to Washington. Before returning to St. Etienne, they will probably visit Haiti as the guests of Mrs. Harriet Gibbs Marshall, the wife of Napoleon H. Marshall and sister of Mrs. Hunt.

Both teams were evenly matched and for four innings neither team was able to tally. Slade, Howard's southpaw, pitched pretty ball from the start but found Foster, Livingstone's ace southpaw, quite as effective, as well as the support given by his teammates in helping the game along and being able to get out of holes when necessary. Foster, Evans and Potter all played well for Livingstone; while Slade, Stevens, Braden and Bryant played exceptional ball for Howard. Despert's officiating was very efficient. The next game on the Howard schedule will be played on Saturday, May 9, against Durham State Normal.

Professor Drew's letter follows: "Accept our thanks for interest in the recovery of goods stolen from the Storer Baseball team, and for the very satisfactory settlement for the loss. The whole affair was unfortunate but we are glad to say that it leaves no blot on the fair name of Howard University.

Smith University won an easy victory over Storer College on their diamond at Harpers Ferry, W. Va. Wednesday, April 29th. The final score was 8 to 1. Storer was unable to score after the first inning due to errorless ball played by the Howard team and the effective pitching of Manager Downing. Roy who started the game in the box for Howard was taken out after receiving an injury to his hand while batting. Payne and Carrington were the outstanding men on the Storer team.

The lone Cuban tally was one forced in by Lee in the first inning. Mesa walked, Fabre singled, Oms sacrificed and Chacon was handed a pass filling the bases, Massip, a newcomer in the ranks of the invaders proved to be a good waiter and Mesa was forced home. Two new faces graced the line-up of Pompez's aggregation, Massip, the lengthy first basmean and Ferrer at second played their first game in the stars' roster. "Bizz" Mackey collected the only extra base hit of the game when he doubled in the opening frame.

Bernard Youngng, Jr.) Hampton, Va.-Final preparations are under way for the staging of the fourth annual championship track and field meet held by Hampton Institute on Armstrong Field. The largest entry ever received since the inception of this gigantic athletic carnival will gather on May 16 at one o'clock sharp to battle for supremacy. The outlook for the toppling over of existing collegiate and scholastic records is exceptionally bright in certain popular events in both the track and field divisions. In addition to intercollegiate events, with featured races, there is a competition among the largest number of high-school participants ever gathered at any single meet held by Negro institutions. It is a matter of conjecture to point out any specific event and label it as the one to bring forth the maximum of interest and keen rivalry. In the 440-yard collegiate relay an extra trophy has been offered by the Chicago Defender; in the scholastic 440-yard Frank A. Young, sports editor of that paper, has donated a cup to be given in addition to the regular medals; in the collegiate relay the Madame Walker Company has made possible the winning of two relay cups by donating a beautiful prize. Entries have been sent in by Virginia Union University, Virginia Normal Institute, Virginia Seminary and College, West Virginia Collegiate Institute, Claflin University, St. Paul Normal School; and Livingston College, Johnson C. Smith University, A. and T. College, Shaw University, Wilcoxville University, Morgan College, and the other members of the C. I. A. A. are among those who have indicated that they will enter teams. Among the high schools to compete the following have sent in entries: Bordentown Training School, Voorhees School of South Carolina, Nansemong High School of Suffolk, Va., Tidewater Institute, Chesapeake, Va. Norcum High, Portsmouth; Huntington High, Newport News; Dunbar High, Washington; Union High, Hampton, and the following are expected to have their teams on the field: Armstrong High, Washington; Shaw Junior High, Washington; Bowie Normal and Princess Anne Academy of Maryland; Armstrong High of Richmond; B.

THIS NEGRO ACTOR SEASONED VETERAN Harry Tracy who plays the role of "Tobe" the colored stable boy in "Gold Heels," the racetrack picture at the Republic Theatre, on Thursday and Friday, May 14 and 15, is one of Hollywood's best known interpreters of such parts. Although cast usually in comedy roles, Tracy is a serious minded young man and a student of Shakespeare, whose one ambition, some say, is to play "Othello." He has hopes of some-day heading a company of colored players and touring the south in classic productions playing to Negro audiences. Both Tracy and his wife are graduates of Nashville University, and Mrs. Tracy has taught in schools of her own race in the South and West. "Gold Heels" is an adaptation from Henry Blossom, Jr.'s stage success of a decade ago titled "Checkers." Bobby Agnew and Peggy Shaw have the leading roles. Beginning Saturday, May 9, at 3 p.m., the Republic will present Gloria Swanson in "Madame Sans Gene." This is the picture Miss Swanson made in France—the one everybody is talking about. At its premier showing in New York, the admission charged was $5 a seat; at the Republic, regular admission prices will prevail. Try to imagine the glorious, alluring Gloria in the role of a pert little French laundress who rose to the rank of Duchess and became the sensation of Napoleon's court. The Divine Gloria reaches the high spot of her career in this really remarkable picture. "Madame Sans Gene" will run for five days—Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, May 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13. The feature will start on each day at 3:00, 5:00, 7:00 and 9:15 p.m. A special music score has been composed for "Madame Sans Gene" and will be rendered on our new organ.

Why, those "dancing fools," the Dixie funsters, "The Chocolate Dandies," with "Shuffle Along's" former stars, Sissle and Blake. They have been setting New York on fire with their pep their jazz, their catchy melodies and their wild and frenzied dancing. Now they are coming here for the week of May 11th, appearing at Ford's Theatre, Baltimore. Sissle and Blake, former stars of their original creation, "Shuffle Along, in the brief period of one season attained professional distinction as stage entertainers possessing originality and creative talent of an unusual degree of excellence. The phenomenal success of "Shuffle Along," disclosed to them the formula that served to make them famous and which they have copied in their latest and greatest musical revue, "Chocolate Dandies." It is rather a late day to tell theatregoers anything, especially new about chocolate musical comedies. In the dyed-in-the-kinky-wool dusky dance of life "Shuffle Along," many good judges were thinking that Sissle and Blake had reached their limits of authorship and would never duplicate that astounding stage success. - If you have seen this all-colored revue there is nothing we can say to you that will give you a better opinion of it than you now have, except that it is the U. S. Treasury to a cancelled postage stamp that you will go and see it again. If you haven't seen this successor to "Shuffle Along," and you enjoyed that bizarre novelty, be sure that you see Sissle and Blake's newest and greatest stage offering, "The Chocolate Dandies" which appear in Balto, one week, scarely long enough to give all those who will want to see it, a fighting chance of doing so. It makes no claim to art, wit, nor subtleties, but Oh, Boy, It's Some Show! And We Don't Mean Maybe!

Just what action the students' council will take has not been determined. There is still a wide divergence of view between the council and the faculty regarding the rule suspending students for twenty absences without permission from military drills and the business committee of the faculty of which Dean Kelly Miller is the chairman. This committee decided that the rule should be continued in effect, and that the five students who had violated it should be suspended. When the students' council was notified of the decision of the business faculty, they immediately called a mass meeting of the student body.

The suspended students were Gilbert Edwards of New Haven, Conn.; John George, of Washington; George H. Dabney, Washington; Norris Wright Cuney, Washington, and another Edwards, whose first name could not be learned. As a result of the suspensions, the student body held a mass meeting Tuesday and passed a resolution demanding that the suspended students be reinstated by Thursday and that the rule automatically suspending students who have twenty cuts in the Reserve Officers Training Corps and physical education classes be abrogated. President J. Stanley Durkee would make no statement in regard to the suspension, neither would Lt. Colonel C. E. N. Howard, professor military tactics, nor Louis L. Watson, head of the department of physical education. The students claim that the rule puts more emphasis on physical and military education than upon academic. They point out that the only discipline a student receives for fifteen "cuts" from an academic subject is lost of credit for the work done in that subject during a quarter. They also charge that no notice of the adoption of any such rule was given them until they had registered for the quarter. They say that Howard University is the only class A college which makes compulsory physical education and military science for four years. A committee from the students' council sought to have the rule suspended. They took it up with President Durkee who is reported to have been in sympathy with their views.

The segregation of the colored audience at the Washington Auditorium last Tuesday night, made 200 Negro jubilee singers and as many foreign delegates and guests indignant, threw the International Council of Women into a turmoil and laid bare America's policy in regard to a large number of her citizens. Too high praise has not been given to the Negro entertainers who after seeing the accommodations accorded them and their Colored brethren, refused to appear before a segregated audience. A more opportune time has not occurred for the Negro to express his resentment for segregation; for, at the Washington Auditorium last Tuesday night met and intermingled foreign delegates and guests and America's best to feel the pulse of the one big organization in the world which knows no prejudices and stands for peace among races and nations. Wherever the responsibility is placed, our sister nations will still see America as a nation which wantonly segregates a patriotic group of its constituents. Had Silent Calvin Coolidge, by executive order, placed a ban on segregation in the Departments of the Government at Washington, as soon as he gained authority, we are of the opinion that it is highly improbable that the disgraceful incident of Tuesday night would have occurred. Such a course would have had a far-reaching moral effect for better race relations in the National Capital. Having not so done, there is a feeling that the National Government approves or does not condemn segregation. Consequently, the Negro is forced to move as a gregarious herd in the departments of government, in residential sections and most of the public amusements. We see in this affair the dawn of a new day of freedom and equal consideration, each of the other and all as one. We see in it a racial awakening and an effective beginning to break down the bars of segregation and its attendant evils. A more exemplary act of race loyalty has not been shown since the riot in 1917. The choice between proffered recompense and applause and the veiled influence lent in fostering discrimination and its sister evils, comes often to representatives of the Race; but seldom is such an unselfish choice made as that made by those jubilee singers Tuesday night. Every one of us, individually and collectively, should follow the lead in order that, if not we, our children or our children's children may enjoy the freedom and happiness guaranteed by the Constitution. THE DOOM OF THE BUSINESS "JACK-LEG" We no longer permit those who have had no medical training to tamper with our bodies. We would not retain a "jack-leg" lawyer for a serious and intricate suit. And in a few years we will not let men who have had no professional business training tamper with the delicate organisms of industry, with the critical balance of supply and demand, and with the human destinies of thousands of workers. For the doom of the "jack-leg" in business will be sealed, not by law nor by boycott, but by the inexorable hand of competition. The "jack-leg" in business will not be able to sweep back the tide of economic forces nor to stem the current of education which those forces set flowing. While we will admit that the school of experience is a great school, we maintain that the wise man finds it too expensive to learn therein. We believe the school-room to be admittedly a better place in which to start than the big room of experience. The professionally trained men has had a large number of case-experiences to study. Therefore, when he begins where the fittest will survive, where deeds mean success or failure, he has at his finger's end a knowledge of many similar or dissimilar cases to aid him in solving the problem at hand. The raucous laugh of the "practical business men" is heard. Those hard-working geniuses of the type which has made American business supreme do not believe that one can learn in a schoolroom the deep secret of leadership. Be not deceived. Leadership is going to be taught, as other professions have been taught, not in mere school-rooms, but with the aid of research and practice, with the case system and field study, by graduate and postgraduate institutions of higher learning. Professional training has and will ever have at its inception the contempt of the practical exponents whom it challenged. The barber used to do surgery; the budding medico in the eighteenth century learned his business by private study and actual experience under some well known practitioner; lawyers began their careers in like manner; and the day is not far distant when the business manager, who is to conduct large affairs with the confidence and respect of his subordinates and the public, must be professionally trained for the efficient direction of industry and commerce. The urgent need of this is seen in the large number of failures in the Race's big enterprises. This is an age, not of industrial revolution, but of industrial evolution—a period of scientific knowledge and trained men. New supplies of natural resources are less easily obtained; gains through invention (or saving), unless guided by men trained to perform research, are greatly diminished. The business man's opportunity to-day lies in the development of processes of research and teaching and in the application of these processes to practice in industry.

In addition to segregating Negroes, the management of the auditorium admitted selling Negroes tickets for $2.00 and seating them in the 50 cent section. Hundreds of people got their money back Wednesday. However, the box office tried to get out of refunding the money on the $2.00 tickets on the ground that people were not segregated in that section, but this reasoning did not hold and the money was returned. The National Association of Colored Women will bring the matter before the International Council and will seek to get statements from that body of this question. However, the constitution of the International Council expressly bans any form of racial or group discrimination. There are twenty-four foreign countries represented here. The THE WASHINGTON IRIDESC SATURDAY, MAY 9, 1925 CLARK HALL CLINIC. From time to time, the Senior Medical Students, resident at Clark Hall, Howard University, have been called upon by other residents and students at the university to render first aid, or give advice as to other ailments. This has been of much assistance to those concerned. Owing to the popularity of Mr. J. H. Russell Dyett, who has always taken a keen interest in these matters, most of the calls were made upon him. As a consequence he conceived the idea of establishing something in the nature of a regular clinic and succeeded in securing the cooperation of others who live at, or frequent, the Hall. He consulted Dr. A. B. Jackson, Director of School of Public Health, who gave the idea his support, and on securing the approval of Secretary West of the Y. M. C. A., the latter made application to the Howard University authorities for a room which they readily granted. Thus has recently been established the Clark Hall Clinic. The following is the Schedule: Room 324, hours: 7 to 8 a. m. and 7 to 8:30 p. m. Attendants: J. H. Russell Dyett, Medical; A. G. Daly, Surgical; W. E. Hunter, Nervous Disorders; A. G. Featherstone and K. S. Jones, Heart and Lungs; A. W. Scott and S. A. Sidat-Singh, Genito-Urinary; C. A. Petioni and J. B. Allen, Eye, Ears, Nose and Throat; V. J. J. Harris, Laboratory Technician; Supervised by Dr. A. B. Jackson, Professor of Bacteriology and Public Health. For appointments, also consult Mr. W. B. West, Secretary, Y. M. C. A. DR. PINKETTS SUCCESS Dr. Roscoe DeWitt Pinkett, Pharmacy, '13, was born in Virginia near Washington, D.C. He was educated in the public and high schools of the District of Columbia. In the Fall of 1910 he entered the College of PharColumbia Board of Pharmacy and was graduated in 1914 with the degree of Doctor of Pharmacy. He passed an examination before the District of Columbia Boar dof Pharmacy and was registered in October, 1913. In 1914 he was employed at the French Street Pharmacy of Wilmington, Delaware, under Dr. S. G. Elbert. In 1914 he took over the interests of the Benjamin's Pharmacy located at the Northwest corner of Fourth and N Streets, this city, and was successful in business until he was drafted into the army in 1917, where he served fifteen months in the Medical Division. In 1919 he returned to resume duties in his store, which was similar to starting anew. After a number of toilsome years of close and tireless application to a growing business, he succeeded in securing the valuable property at New Jersey Avenue and N Streets, Northwest, and erecting a modern building with a large store and dwelling apartments on the first floor and other apartments above. The pharmacy at the new location is well equipped and stocked with all modern and up-to-date conveniences and was opened for business to the public on February 15, 1925. Dr. Pinkett is considered one of the successful pharmacists of the District of Columbia, the reward to which his untiring effort, good management, and foresight in overcoming the great obstacles entitles him. Dr. Walton, associate professor of Prosthetic Dentistry, attended the recent meeting of the Old North State Dental Association at Winston-Salem, N.C. He demonstrated the cast inlay technic and scientific venture construction. Gets Divorce from Husband Gets Divorce from Husband Justice Bailey has awarded Mrs. Anna R. Franklin, of 1518 First Street, Northwest, who is suing her husband, Stuart Franklin for a limited divorce, ten dollars a week temporary alimony. Marchioness of Aberdeen and Temair is president of the International body. The convention will continue in regular session until Thursday, May 14th. Mrs. Mary Churih Terrell has been named chairman of a committee to draw up appropriate resolutions to be presented to the convention. Just when these resolutions will be presented could not be learned. The nearly seventy-five out-of-town singers had all practically left the city by Thursday. The Hampton group left in a special car. The Executive Committee of the National Association of Colored Women will remain in session until the close of the Quinquennial. Mrs. Bailey charges in her bill of complaint that on several occasions her husband has assaulted her and that during one of his attacks on her he knocked her down, breaking out one of her teeth. She says that he has accused her of other men in the presence of their children and threatened to kill her. She also charged that he has failed to support her properly and as a consequence she has had to work to main- MUSIC FORUM By Wellington A. Adams REV. DR. BATTLE PRAISES MISS LAWRENCE SONSING LITAKER'S SINGINGING The Rev. Dr. W. D. Battle, pastor of Galbraith A. M. E. Zion Church, highly commended the vocal program and singing of Miss Helen Litaker, Contralto, in her vocal debut in the parlors of the Columbia Conservatory of music, 1911 Ninth Street, before a large and enthusiastic gathering of hearers on last Tuesday evening, May 5th. He especially commended the Negro spirituals as soul-stirring and said her voice possesses rare charm and beauty. Others who praised her beautiful singing were Mrs. W. D. Battle and Mrs. E. G. Watson, wife of Rev. Dr. Watson, pastor, of Metropolitan Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church. Miss Litaker has a really sweet voice, sonorous and of organ-like timbre and some day will be heard from if she continues her study until her voice is fully developed. During the program a bouquet of beautiful roses were presented the soloist by Misses Elizabeth Francis Whitney and Janie M. Green, and Miss Litaker was showered with congratulations upon the conclusion of her renditions. The program presented was as follows: I. a. "Rosemonde" (Chaminade), b. "Day and Night" (Williams), c. "Last Night" (Kjerulf). II. a. "Speak! Speak Again!" (Minetti), b. "Loch Lomond" (Old Scotch Song), c. "Why I Love You" (Rea). III. a. "Nobody Knows De Trouble I've spiritual, (Clarence C. White), b. "My Lord What A Mornin', spiritual, (H. T. Burleigh), c. "Good Night" (Brown). She was able assisted by Miss Janie M. Green with a reading from Dunbar and an instrumental number by Miss Laura E.

Mrs. Franklin is represented by Attorney Joseph N. Jones. racial folk songs, which were compared with the Russian folk songs. The pupils described many of the new subjects shown and in addition, melodies written by the pupils of the melody writing class were played. The lesson was given one day last week by Miss Virginia Williams of the department of music, assisted by Mrs. Rebecca Gray of the department of visual education. No better equipped teacher in the public schools could have given this necessary demonstration in folk song as Miss Williams is eminently qualified particularly in this sphere of music as well as in the larger or more technical forms. We remember with interest the splendid massive choral training of Pittsburghers some few years since when this lady trained and directed several hundred voices in community singing before a great crowd of both white and colored at a monster music and civic festival, the white dailies praising her work as that of an artist so well did she succeed in the work. And too, what better effort could be put forth by our music teachers in the public schools than that of teaching the origin, form and beauty of the Negro spiritual that the younger generations may learn to appreciate their own racial melodies more intelligently. Why always sing songs white men write or transcribe of foreign racial tendency? Why always do we pride ourselves on being able to recognize or sing songs of other nationalities other than our own? Not that we shouldn't know something, a good deal about the melodies of other races, far from that, but that we may develop a better understanding and appreciation of other racial songs through the study mostly of those we know by nature. We welcome that beginning of folk song study and hope the schools may foster and encourage it more.

Every child feels that he or she has the best Mother in the whole wide world. And because there is so much thought of, and love, for Mothers, a day has been set apart for us to show our sincere appreciation for this greatest of all persons—Mother. The idea is that if your Mother is living, you observe the day by wearing a white flower; if your Mother is dead you wear a pink flower. The carnation is preferred if it can be obtained, because it best typifies "mother love"—its color standing for purity; its petals, beauty; its lasting qualities, faithfulness; its fragrance, love; and its wide growth, charity. Show your Mother some special kindness this day in words of affection and appreciation; by a gift or a visit to her, or by a letter if absent from her. Too, if you know of a Mother whose only child is dead, do some favor for her on this day so that she will feel a bit of the joy of the day that she would feel were her own child living. The greatest one on earth to you, Whose love is so pure and true— Is Mother. She cares for you when very small, She is always kind to each and all— Is Mother. There is no person such as Mother The only one—there is no other. She is so kind and so very sweet, Her prayers are for you, day and week. So let us all set one day aside In which our praises to confide, Remember Mother on this bright day, And cast some flowers along the way. Wear a flower, pink or white, And strew some little ray of light That will make her cares decrease And her happiness for aye increase. Honor and esteem this dear one For you, the battle she's fought and won. Caress, love, and be true to Mother And let her, in you some worth discover. Dear Mother, dearest in the wide world. TITURE CEREMONY On Thursday evening, May 14, at 7:30 o'clock, the First Investiture Ceremony to be held in the District of Columbia for Colored Scouts of the First Class, will take place in the basement of St. Augustine's Church, for those members of Troop No. 508.

WHY WE SHOULD NOT USE THE WORD NIGGER George W. Allen and Evelyn Lyles Win Circus Tickets We offered circus matinee tickets as awards for the two best five reasons why we should not use the word "nigger." The two winners are George W. Allen (15) of 1115 Fourth Street, Northwest, and Evelyn Lyles (10) of 944 R Street, Northwest. Come to the office any time Friday and receive the circus tickets. Five reasons why the word "nigger" must not be used. 1. The word "nigger" is vulgar. 2. Because of pride of race, we must not use a term which reflects on the user. 3. A person in any race may be capable of niggardly conduct. We must not confine the name to ours. 4. Cultured people of no race use it. 5. It is an opprobrious epithet. GEORGE W. ALLEN The word "nigger" should not be used for the following reasons: 4. Its use is degrading to the Negro race. 5. It is alone We are giving a ticket to the Dunbar Theatre for each set of reasons, other than the winners', which we publish on this page. A Theatre Ticket to Mary Dear Editor: I am sending in five reasons for not using the word "nigger." 1. I have too much respect for my race. 2. The use of the word is very degrading to our race; and if we want our race to be respected, we must first respect it ourselves. 3. We should not use the word "nigger" because we are Negroes and are proud of it. 4. If I were to use the word "nigger," I should see no reason why the white race should not use it in referring to my race. 5. My mother has taught me to always be proud of my race, and when anyone calls me a "nigger" I should say that I am a Negro, and I am proud of it. We are giving Andre and Thelma E. Lane a ticket apiece to the Dunbar Theatre for their reasons which are published here. Four Good Reasons We should not call each other "nigger" when we are highly insulted if a person of another race calls us the same thing that we call each other. We do not want the smaller chil- tist Church, H N.W.; Thursd ham, S.M. Troop No. 1 Church, Tem Clarence T. H. Troop No. 5 day nights; H Troop No. 5 olic Church, H dren to grow up using a word that is distasteful to our race. Intelligent people never call each other "nigger"—hence we should retain from using it. We like to hear things of which we are proud—we are not proud of being called "niggers." Because we should set the example for the white race. Because those who use it are classed as being ignorant and uncouth. BOY SCOUTS TO HAVE FIELD MEET At a recent meeting of the Scout-masters' Round Table the final arrangements were completed for a field meet for Colored Scouts to take place May 23rd at 3:30 p.m. at 23rd and O Streets, Northwest. Following the meet it is planned to have a barbecue in charge of Mr. L. W. Qldham, Troop 505, for which a nominal charge will be made to each boy. After the barbecue there will be a camp-fire for the purpose of awarding the prizes—and perhaps a ghost story or two will be told. The events are as follows: 1. Semaphore Signaling (Team of two) One sender and one receiver, with an assistant for each, from each troop. At the start, senders and receivers will be assigned proper places. Contest is against time, counted from the signal to start until message is placed in the hands of the judge by the receiver. Message must not contain any abbreviations, insertions or corrections; 5 seconds will be added to the elapsed time for each error. No holding device for message permitted. Semaphore flags not less than 18 ft. x 18 ft. to be used. Contestants to leave field as soon as message is delivered. 2. First Aid Team of four, including patient. Patient will not be considered a contestant. One of team should be Captain. Team shall furnish First Aid kit, staves for coat stretcher, two splints. A practical problem such as is covered in latest editions of the Handbook for boys under First Class First Aid to be presented by the judges. Teams to come with First Aid Kit, containing proper equipment for handling said problems. 3. Knot Tying One scout and assistant. Assistant will not be considered a contestant. Contestant will furnish one stave. Ropes will be furnished. Must tie any of the Tenderfoot knots required by a list that will be presented on the field. 4. Fire by Flint and Steel (one scout) Each contestant to provide own flint and steel. No chemicals allowed. 5. Fire-Making; String-Burning (one scout) Wood will be provided. Contestant will furnish ax and knife. Two strings, one 18 and one 24 inches above the ground will be stretched between erect sticks. Scout who builds fire and first burns through both strings wins. 6. Tent Pitching Two contestants from each troop. All equipment except pegs to be provided by each team; pegs (nine 60-penny nails). Finish time will be taken when both contestants stand at Attention on line in front of tent, where they remain until judged, then quickly pack and remove from the field. Speed counts 50 per cent; neatness and alignment 25 per cent; pegs securely driven and lines taut, 25 per cent. There will be exhibitions of the following scouting events—fire by friction; and Morse signalling. Join the scouts now. Below is a list of Washington troops. You are invited to join one of them.

(By Lillian Lewis Fcourtado) (Nat'l Equal Rights League Service) (Continued from last week) Just eight minutes before the big tragedy that was to set the seal upon America's Independence, Crispus Attucks, then 47 years of age, whose big frame and determined face were enough to terrify anybody, as John Adams afterward said, was in Cornhill at the head of 20 or 30 sailors, with a large cord-wood stick in his hand. The crowd moved to Dock Square and when the bells at the head of King Street rang, he was there shouting: "The way to get rid of these soldiers is to attack the main guard; strike at the root; this is the nest." The soldiers were brandishing their arms with insolence. Captain Preston who was officer of the day, came on the scene. Bells were yet ringing, the din was becoming tumultuous and amid the roar of voices, the clang of bells, the clash of sticks against muskets, some one either gave the order to "fire," or soldiers thought they heard the order to "fire" and at the first shot Crispus Attucks fell, dead. Samuel Gray and Jonas Caldwell were also killed. Samuel Maverick and Patrick Carr were mortally wounded. Blood was mixed with snow, blood of the colored man and blood of white men, was shed for the redemption of America from British oppression. Attucks and Caldwell having no home in Boston were removed to Faneuil Hall, the cradle of American Liberty, where too, lay the dead body of our Crispus Attucks Hundreds of visitors came to Faneuil Hall and to the homes of Maverick and Gray to express their sympathy. The funeral was held on Wednesday, March 7th. There were muffled drums and tolling bells not only in Boston but in the surrounding towns. Shops were closed and it was a day of great mourning. Four hearses and a long line of coaches belonging to the most distinguished families and filled with distinguished people proceeded to the Granary Burying Ground, on Tremont Street, where the bodies were buried in one grave, side by side. It is said that a greater number of persons assembled on this occasion than were ever gathered on the continent up to this time for a similar purpose. In the meantime a Justice Court was held. Captain Preston and the eight soldiers who had fired upon the citizens were put into prison. A town meeting was held by the citizens in Faneuil Hall. A committee of fifteen was appointed to wait on Governor Hutchison and Colonel Dalrymple to express the sentiments of the people by a fervent prayer for the removal of the troops.

Dunbar Student is Honored at Amherst Dunbar Student is Honored at Amherst According to information received here, William Henry Hastie, a student at Amherst College, has been selected by the faculty committee on prizes as one of four members of the class of 1825 known as the Bond Four, who will deliver orations on commencement day. The one who excels will receive the Bond prize of one hundred dollars. The Bond Four are selected on the basis of literary and oratorical merit from the fifteen seniors who have attained the highest general standing in their class at the second term of the senior year. Any of the fifteen who desire to compete for the prize are permitted to submit essays to the committee. The four whose papers are judged best may then compete for the final award. William Henry Hastie received his preparation for college at the Dunbar High School here. He took the Porter Admission Prize at Amherst in 1921, the Porter Prize for first year physics, and the Walker prize for freshman mathematics. For four years he has been on the track squad and is now the president of Phi Beta Kappa. The subject of his essay was "Young Men and Their Elders." The other members of the senior class who will compete are S. P. Ham from Schenectady, N.Y.; H. J. Bitterman, Brooklyn, N.Y., and C. L. Israels, New York City. Politicians Visit Here Politicians who visited the city last week include William C. Matthews of Boston, Mass.; Aaron E. Malone, of St. Louis, Mo., and Joseph H. Watson, of Albany, Ga. Mr. Matthews, who is an attorney for the Garvey interests, denied that any committee was to see the President with reference to the granting of a pardon to Marcus Garvey, who is serving a sentence of five years' imprisonment in the Federal Penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga. He said that it was fully understood that any petition for Garvey's release would have to go to the Department of Justice before it would be considered by the President. Mr. Malone is a candidate for Register of the Treasury. He was a guest at the Mu-So-Lit Club, 1327 R Street, Northwest, while in the city. and offering unequaled service 7th and S Streets, N.W.

The different countries were represented with their national colors and made a wonderful showing. The 1st prize was won by Mrs. B. A. Rose representing Ireland. She had the most beautiful costume.

Attention has been called to the report of the Alexandria Hospital for the year of 1925 and it was noted that no contributions have come from our local churches or lodges or other organizations this year. The Hospital would greatly appreciate a donation from anyone. Since it has been the custom to give heretofore, we deem it an oversight this time. The only church (colored) represented is the Oakland church. Miss Grace Anderson gave a surprise party Saturday evening, May 2, in honor of Mr. Russel Cashin of Howard University.
