Race Man is Called for Service on Coroner's Jury STUDENTS END STRIKE SUBURBAN GARDENS AMUSEMENT PARK OPENS SAT., MAY 16 Come Out and See the "NEW PARK" Saturday 1 p.m. See Ad on page 8 Walk Out Begun May 7, Comes To End when Students Agree to Return to Class. Faculty Happy First in Local Circulation. Vol. 4, No. 51 Race M STU Walk Out Be To End when Return to The strike of the student body at Howard University, which began at 1 o'clock, Thursday, May 7th, officially ended at 4:45 p.m., Thursday, May 14th. The end came after a long debate which began at 1 o'clock, in which both sides of the student body were given an opportunity to express themselves. The spirit that prompted the action more than anything else, was the students' desire to save Howard University from chaos and ruin which would have resulted if the faculty and student body continued to stand pat. The basis of the students ending their strike was a resolution which was passed simultaneously with the motion to end the strike. This resolution embodied the unanimous sentiment of the student body. A citizens committee composed of Dr. W. C. Goins, Chas. E. Lane, Ellis Weatherless, Mrs. A. M. Curtis, J. P. Bond, M. M. Harris, Chas. A. Shaw, Dr. A. G. Thornton, James E. Scott and others, through its chairman, Mr. Chas. E. Lane, played a part in bringing about the end. Mr. Lane's persuasion, coupled with the willingness of the Student Council members to be reasonable, was the turning point of the afternoon. The vote on the motion to return to school was nearly unanimous; it was so large, it was unnecessary for the tellers to count it. There was a great cheer when it was taken. The resolution on which the students voted to return, read as follows: The Resolution "Being desirous of ending the unpleasant relation that has prevailed at Howard University since May 7, and, on the representation of a group of leading citizens of Washington, D.C., that amiable relation would be restored by the students resuming normal relation with the University; that no penalties will be imposed upon any participants in the strike; that the administration will immediately take up the matter of revising the rules affecting physical education; that no cut will be charged for the time the students have been out of class; that no further suspensions be made under the no-cut rule until the situation is settled. The strike reached its climax Thursday, the day the faculty set for the students to be in school, or else be suspended. Very few students attended school Thursday morning. Therefore, the ending of the strike by the students, saved the faculty of a very embarrassing situation; for if it had carried out its order to suspend all students not in class Thursday, at least 80 per cent of the students on "The Hill" would have been put out. This would have practically brought activities at the University to a standstill. Therefore, there were many sighs of relief when the vote was announced. The strongest day of the strike was Wednesday. This was because of the calling to the campus of a number of policemen. On Tuesday, the faculty voted that "students who continue to obstruct other students from attending classes or who continue creating (Continued on Page 8) SUBURBA Come The Washington Tribune THE CONGRESSIONAL LIBRARY. FIRST ST., S. E. The Published Weekly Man is Ca JDEN egun May 7, n Students A Class. Facu Chronology of Events The Rule that Was the Primary Cause of the Strike "When a student has accumulated ten unexcused absences in R. O. T. C., and Physical Education combined, he shall be called before his Dean for warning; and when he has accumulated twenty unexcused absences in R. O. T. C. and Physical Education combined, he shall be dropped from the University for that quarter. The Commander in charge of R. O. T. C. is empowered to grant excuses for absences." (Note: According to the way this rule is enforced, the persons in charge had the prerogative to give a student one or more marks of absences for being absent only one time. So, really no students have been absent twenty times, but in many cases have simply received a total of twenty penalties.) This rule was passed by the Faculty, February 6, 1925, but was not posted for the information of the students until three weeks after the Spring Quarter began March 14th. On Monday, May 4th, five students were suspended under the so-called twenty-cut rule. On May 5th, the students held a mass meeting and petitioned the faculty to abrogate the twenty-cut rule and reinstate the five suspended students. On May 6th, the faculty met and voted that because of inaccuracy in the records, the five men be reinstated. However, the faculty refused to abrogate the rule. On May 7th, the students held a mass meeting in chapel and voted to strike until the rule of twenty cuts be abrogated. On May 8th, the faculty met in special session and reaffirmed the regulation governing the attendance, which is the twenty-cut rule. On May 11th the students sent five demands to the faculty. On May 12th, the faculty met and stated it was unwilling to deal with the students while in the attitude of revolt. On May 11th, a committee of the Alumni Association met with the Business Committee and made recommendations which were transmitted to the general faculty. On May 12th, the faculty voted to inform the Alumni Committee that they would continue to refuse to deal with the students while in a state of revolt. On May 12th the students sent a request to the faculty requesting a hearing of a committee of the Student Council before the President and Faculty at the earliest possible convenience. On May 13th the Faculty stated it would continue to refuse to deal with the students while in a state of repellion. On May 14th at 1 o'clock the students met in a special meeting and on assurances from a Citizens committee headed by Chas. E. Lane, that it would see that the students' rights would be protected, voted to return to their classes pending the arbitration of their grievances. AN GARDE Out and Se Sidelights on the Strike The strike at Howard University which began at one o'clock Thursday, May 7th, is one of the longest strikes on record at this university. In 1907, the entire student body struck against the administration of President Gordon of the university. The strikers were successful in their fight for President Gordon to resign. When the strike was first called, many of the members of the faculty made light of their ability of the hold out. However, later events have shown there is more unity among the students than even a large number of students realized. The students have used the Dunbar and Lincoln Theatres for their big noon-day meetings. These meetings were under the auspices of the Students' Council. Each day the attendance grew larger and larger. The rain ruined most of the paper signs the students had posted on the campus. However, not to be outdone, the students then restorted to white paint, which is very evident on the steps and walks. The strike so far, has not been marred by any unpleasant disorder. The students have been very careful in this respect. One day a wild story was circulated that a student had used a razor in an effort to cut his way to class. However, this proved untrue. The girls showed their fitness for citizenship by accepting equal share in the strike, although their support is sympathetic. Their support gave the male students more encouragement than anything else. As an offset to the student meetings, the faculty has been meeting in special session every day. Their usual release however, has been something similar to Governor Brandon of Alabama, who made "Twenty-four for Underwood" famous. The faculty's slogan has been, "The faculty is willing to consider any complaint or grievance of the students after they return to normal relations to the University." At no period of the strike has the tension been higher than it was when the students found policemen on the campus, Wednesday morning. This more than any other thing, made the strike nearly 100 per cent. The students' cry was, "Remember Fisk!" The students claimed that several girls were mistreated and insulted by the policemen. Captain Doyle withdrew most of his men from the campus about nine o'clock a.m., however, he kept several stationed at Sixth Street. When the students saw the policemen on the campus, some one turned in a fire alarm and also called the ambulance. This caused much excitement on the "Hill." In the general confusion, the tires on the police patrol were punctured. Several women, who are members of the alumni of the University, came on the "Hill" Wednesday evening and requested a hearing with the girls only. They sought to advise the girls but (Continued on page 6) TRIBUNE FIGHT GETS MAN ON CORONER'S JURY As a result of The Tribune directing the attention of Coroner J. Ramsay Nevitt to the fact that no colored men were being selected to serve on coroner's juries, for the first time in recent years a colored man served as a juror at the District morgue when the inquest into the death of Clarence Carter was held last Monday morning. He was Campbell C. Johnson, executive secretary of the Twelfth Street Branch of the Y. M. C. A. The other members of the jury who served with him were D. W. Thayer, Robert E. Doyle, Jr., Chester A. Forrest, Joseph E. Talbert and George H. Campbell. The Tribune took up this question with the coroner following the exoneration of Policeman Salkeld of the killing of Raymond Milbery. He promised then that he would use colored men in this capacity. The first inquest since then was held last Monuda ymorning. Colored men, according to Coroner Nevitt will continue to serve on these Juries. MAN KILLED IN FIGHT WITH HIS SWEETHEARTS A coroner's jury Monday ordered Ada Simpson, 30 years old, of 1749 F Street, Northwest, held for the action of the grand jury in connection with the murder of Clarence Carter 45 years old, of 1825 F Street, Northwest Heart Stitched Carter was fatally stabbed last Saturday morning while riding in an automobile with Ada Simpson and Emma Black. He is said to have lived with the latter. The knife wounds penetrated his left side, one extending through the heart. He was rushed to the Emergency Hospital following the stabbing. Dr. Harry Lewis laid open the region surrounding the heart, took a needle and black silk thread and spliced the organ with three stitches. Herbert Beckwith, an orderly at the hospital then volunteered for a blood transfusion. This delicate operation, however, failed to save his life. Carter died Sunday morning at 10:30 o'clock. Were to Marry Miss Simpson was taken into custody shortly after the stabbing. At first she accused Mrs. Black. Later at the House of Detention when informed of Carter's death, she made a statement admitting that she had struck the fatal blow. In this statement given to Detective W. J. Barber of the Second Precinct she said that she and Carter were to have been married Monday and at the time of the altercation were on their way to obtain the license. At the time of her arrest, Officer E. Williams of the Eighth Precinct, who made the arrest, testified at the inquest that Miss Simpson told him that she was in a delicate state and Carter had promised to marry her.

Francis after whom the proposed new colored junior high school is named, and former member of the Board of Education, died in Philadelphia Monday night after a serious operation. Mrs. Francis had been indosed for some time, but she has never given up her many civic activities, having taken part in the recent drive for funds for the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A., No. 901 Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest. Mrs. Francis came to Washington from Texas more than forty years ago to attend school at Howard University. After graduation she taught in the colored schools of this city until her marriage to Dr. John R. Francis. She served seven years on the board of education, where she fought incessantly for teachers' pensions and better salaries between 1899 and 1906. She was one of the founders of the colored Y. W. C. A. in South Washington twenty-five years ago and served as its first president for ten years. Since that time she has continued her interest in the work which she so ably helped to inaugurate. Even when she was out of this country she kept in close touch with the "Y" which was very dear to her heart. Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A. had the honor of Mrs. Francis' presence and participation in its 20th anniversary exercises on May 3rd last. Mrs. Francis was an active worker in the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church, being president of the missionary society for years. She was active in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and other organizations for the betterment of the colored people. She is survived by four sons and one daughter, Dr. Milton A. Francis, and Dr. John R. Francis, Jr., of this city, Hugh Francis a practicing attorney in San Juan, Porto Rico, with whom she spent her winters on account of her health, Cedric Francis, and Mrs. Dorothea Francis Hart of New York City. Her funeral took place Friday, 3 p.m. at 15th Street Presbyterian Church. Office: 920 U St., N.W. Coroner STR appoints Secure Loan Iasonic Temple HERALD INSULT STIRS WOMEN Another insult has been added to the many recently showered on the heads of colored citizens of this community. This time the insult comes from the Washington Sunday Herald a Hearst newspaper published here. The Society writer on this paper not only went out of her way to insult the Negro race, but added insult to injury by manufacturing many untruths about the recent incident of segregation at the Washington Auditorium. Nothing has been published recently that caused such a wide-spread resentment by Negroes as this article. The following is the insult as published last Sunday: --- (By Evelyn C. Hunt) There was the excitement over the negroes at the American music festival Tuesday evening. In the first place, all of the negroes did not leave because the darkies had been segregated in the gallery just as they have always been at every gathering held in Washington since I can remember at least. As such has always been the case, this sudden excitement about the negroes given seats in the gallery tends one to believe the statements made by many that all the talk and complaints about it Tuesday evening was stirred up by a Bolshevik communist group working on the quiet. Surely if they had hoped to get any nice people to attend the music festival they had to segregate the darkies to the gallery for in this decidedly southern town every lady in the house would have walked out if she had found herself seated next to a colored person. And as I started to say all of the Negroes did not leave early by any means; a great many departed only after the close of the program. The whole thing was certainly a tempest in a teapot. The ticket agent only did what has been done in this town always. ARRANGE FOR SCHOOL EXHIBITS. Plans have been completed for an Educational Demonstration and Exhibition of the activities of the Primary Department of the Public Schools, Divisions 10-13, Washington, D. C., May 18-23, 1925, from 6 to 9 P. M., under the direction if Miss E. F. G. Merritt. This event promises to be unique, in that classes are to be held showing all the phases of Primary work. There will be demonstrations in Visual Education, Physical Education, Speech Correction, Music, Drawing, Dramatization, Story-telling, Kinesiology, Arithmetic, etc. The Executive Committee consists of Miss E. F. G. Merritt, director; Miss E. A. Palmer, chairman; Mrs. V. S. Peters, Mrs. E. R. Holland, Miss M. D. Dodson and Miss V. Robinson. Members of the Advisory Committee are Mrs. F. M. Garvin, Chairman of Arrangements; Mrs. S. F. Clarke, Chairman of Decorations; Mrs. E. R. Holland, Chairman of Publicity, and Miss M. R. Lewis, Managing Director. ENS SAT 1 p.m. 's Jury IKE NEW SUBURBAN GARDENS OPENS THIS SATURDAY Saturday—today—at one o'clock, (May 16), the big gates of the much altered and improved Suburban Gardens, 50th and Hayes Streets, Northeast, will be thrown open to the public. The institution is veritably new, for which changes in management have come many innovations. Morris Murray, the new manager, spent the winter visiting and studying the most successful parks and in profitable interviews with those having expert knowledge of the business operation connected with his position. A clean sweep has been made of the old regime, its policies and practices. Charles E. Lee, manager of Murray Casino, has been made superintendent of the park, and Luther G. Wiseman has been given charge of all drunk and ice cream concessions. A new system of accounting has been adopted. A very substantial investment has been made in improving the facilities at the Suburban Gardens. Nearly a mile of 12-foot-wide macadam roadway leading from the entrance gate to and past every ride and concession is one of the new features. New lavatories with modern plumbing and running water have been installed at convenient locations. A new entrance has been provided for the dance hall, and individual dome-roofed concession booths have replaced the slightly old row of stands. A new ice cream pavilion on the lines of an Italian pergola has been erected. A nice sodded lawn and attractive flower beds have been established about the main entrance. A speciality is being made of amusing the little ones, and to that end considerable space has been set aside as a children's picnic grove. It is fitted with miniature slides, tents and standpiles and is in charge of a competent attendant. Saturday afternoons will be especially devoted to children, and a five-cent scale will apply to all drinks and rides for them. Among the policy changes is the operation of the dance pavilion. Here-tofore dance dates have been let out, and while a number of promoters waxed fat, the holding company derived little profit in this department, which has been the best patronized feature of the park. The management has determined to arrange for half-hour intermissions in the dance program in the interest of concessionaires. This arrangement should help business for the scenic railway, whip, merry-go-round, ferris wheel, dodgem, aerial swing and hobby horses, none of which previously had fair opportunity to realize the profits that were possible. It would seem that Suburban Gardens, after several seasons of indifferent management, is about to take its place as one of the greatest amusement enterprises of our Race.

Man Killed in Fight With His Sweethearts Man Killed in Fight With His Sweethearts (Continued from page 1) coroner's jury, it appears that the presence of the two women in an automobile with him at the same time was the cause of the trouble resulting in Carter's death. Mrs. Black, who said that she was living with him, testified that she got in the car to go only to the corner store but that she was "going as far as the car was going" as long as the other woman was in it. Girl's Confession The statement of the Simpson woman, which was read to the coroner's jury, is as follows: "On Friday night, May 8, 1925, Clarence Carter came to my room to make arrangements about our wedding. When leaving me he told me to meet him at 7 o'clock Saturday morning, May 9, on Nineteenth Street between F and G. "I was there, and Carter met me on time. Emma Black was sitting on the front seat of the automobile. I said to Clarence, must I get in the car? He said, "yes." I got in the rear seat. "Our arrangements were to go to the city hall and get a license to get married. I did not know he was going to have Emma Black with him." "We all drove north on Nineteenth Street to M and east on M to Thirteenth Street, Northwest, when I said to Clarence Carter, 'stop and let me out.' He refused to stop and when we got to Tenth and M Streets, I reached over and caught Carter by the arm and said to him, 'please stop.' Carter turned and hit me twice in the face. I picked up a knife from the pocket of the automobile. It was Carter's knife. When he started to hit me the third time, it was then I struck at him two times with the knife."

The work of "Shoeless" Manley and "Sritingbean" Baylor on first and third, respectively, were the features of the day, "Big Red" Mike, the new left fielder for the LeDroits, reputed to be the hardest hitter seen around Washington since the days of Wilson, now playing with the Baltimore Black Sox, and Lefty Brown, curve ball artist, former star of Howard recently secured by the LeDroit Tigers, were in rare playing form. Royal Giants Fall Before Hilldale Philadelphia, May 7.—After holding the Hilldale team helpless for five frames, Bill Holland, the visiting hurler, weakened in the sixth inning and the home club batted out a victory over the Brooklyn Royal Giants, score 7 to 2. Jesse "Nip" Winters was on the mound for Hilldale and despite the fact that he yielded 12 hits, 2 runs were all that the boys from the City of Churches could amass. Both of these counters were scored before the home team registered a tally. In the first inning Downs tripled to deep center and scored on Smith's Texas Leaguer that fell between Warfield and George Johnson. After the Giants scored their second run in the sixth inning, Capt, Frank Warfield knotted up the count by driving in Washington and Winters and later scored what proved to be the winning run on Mackey's hot single through the infield. Washington had a busy day at short for Hilldale, and handled eleven chances cleanly without a slip. HILLDALE. R H O Briggs, rf. 2 1 2 Warrif' df 2 2 2 Carr, 1b. 0 0 Mackey, c 1 2 1 J.

Critics and laymen are vigorous in extending stinging criticisms to the athletes who are continually spoiling themselves as individual attractions as advertised. The criticisms are well founded. Recently at the Howard meet in one particularly noticeable event a runner in winning his heat outdistanced his field before covering half the stretch. When he saw that his rivals were hopelessly beaten he merely loped to the finish. It is these kinds of tactics that are displeasing. In a race every man is supposed to run his heats in the best time possible regardless of the competition. When unnecessary slowness is observed it leaves a bad taste for fan and critic who sense the errors with a high degree of disgust. It hurts the development of a perfect stride, and eventually throws the runner out of favor for big time competition. Coaches would do well to remedy this evil. HOWARD REFUSES INVITA TION FOR CONFERENCE WITH SCHOOLS ON ATH- LETIC. RELATION. Dr. Edward P. Davis, president of the Board of Athletic Control of Howard University on behalf of his organization has just written Dr. B. M. Rhetta, of Baltimore, Maryland, a letter advising that "the Board of Athletic Control of Howard University expresses thanks for the invitation to attend a conference with representatives of the C. I. A. A. and other institutions in Baltimore on May 9, 1925, but reiterates its view that it sees no good that can come from Howard's participation at this time in such a meeting with representatives of the C. I. A. A.' Shaw Beats St. Paul By J. L. Whitehead. Russell Field, Lawrenceville, Va. May 6.—In their second and final base hall contest of the year, Shaw University took a 5-3 game from St. Paul school today which was the Bears' second victory over the Tigers in less than one week. Captain Wallace of St. Paul, although injured, tossed a fine game. He made fourteen strike outs. Smith and Walker fielded perfectly. Lee was rather airtight at the middle sack. Capt. Hayes, Mitchell, Diamond and Falkner won the Tarheel Defense. ST. PAUL.

Whitehead Russell Field, Lawrenceville, Va., May 16.—St. Paul duplicated her last year's feat when she triumphed over Hampton 3-2 last Friday in a game that was a toss up all the way. The base ball classic was replete with brilliancy, tense moments and thrills and all the other features that go to make a diamond fray creditable to the players and entirely satisfactory to officials, grads, undergrads, friends and well-wishers of schools of the St. Paul-Hampton type.

Coaches DIAMOND DUST By The Observer. Ben Taylor, erstwhile manager and founder of the Washington Potomac, now defunct, is playing first base for the Harrisburg entry in the Eastern League. The Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City, boast of an all-star infield this year, viz: Cummings, first base; Lloyd, second base; Ludy, shortstop, and Finlay, third base. A rare triple play was executed by the Baltimore Black Sox against the Cuban Stars Sunday, May 2, in the first game of a double header. Britt, Beckwith and Day executed the play, Mangin, Black Sox pitching recruit, bids fair to do some first class mound work for the Monument City gang this year. Connie Day, Black Sox second baseman, formerly with Indianapolis A. B. C.'s, is just about the best defensive second baseman in the league this year. Dave Brown, star left-hander of the Lincoln Giants; Marcelle, third baseman and captain, and Wickware, pitcher, all of the same team, are being held by New York authorities as being implicated in a murder in the big city. Morty (Specks) Clarke, formerly star shortstop of the A. B. C.'s and Washington Potomacs, is now playing third base and outfield for the Wilmington Potomacs. Beckwith, "Baby" Wilson, "Heavy" Johnson and Holliway, constitute the murderer's row for Baltimore this year. "Danny" Despert and "Spike" Spencer, are two of the best umpires in the country and we predict that the Eastern League will draft them into service before the summer is gone. Dehart Hubbard, the versatile athlete of the University of Michigan, is one of the most colorful athletes before the public today; he exudes his self-confidence. Local fans are interested in the careers of our local boys who are playing big league baseball. Pondexter with Birmingham Black Barons, Winters and Lee with Hilldale, Wilson with Baltimore, Deane with Lincoln Giants and Gatewood with Atlantic City are certainly fine representatives. Max Eggleston, one of the really great catchers, is laid up with a split thumb. Hamilton and Lindsay, second baseman and shortstop, respectively, of the Wilmington Potomacs, are electrifying the cash customers with their great all-round playing. Cannady, a new comer to the Harrisburg Giants, is a welcomed addition to the Giant's inner defense. Oscal, spitball hurler of the Eastern Cubans, is one of the most eccentric men in the business, but, by the way, is a real spitball artist. DIAMOND K'S STILL VICTORIOUS. The Diamond K. A. C. defeated the Brentwood A. C. 12-2 last Sunday. Eldwood King pitched the entire game for the Diamond K's. This team challenges any amateur team in baseball. Address Wilfred Medley, Manager, 1529 North Carolina Ave. N. E. MANCHESTERS WIN. The Manchester A. C. defeated the Hentiville A. C., 11-7. Ted Thompson Stars at Wilberforce Wilberforce University is the scene of much sport activity. The tennis team is making ready for an offensive against some of Ohio's leading white colleges. Ohio State; University of Dayton and Wittinburg University are the Wilberforce schedule. Ted Thompson of Washington, who ranks second in the A. T. A. ratings, is the star of the varsity. Colored Departmental League Vets Bureau and the Bureau of Engraving lead in the Colored Departmental League. Jones and Tennille pitched brilliantly to win for their respective teams. REGISTERS.

MUIRKIRK BLACK SOX CONTINUE WINNING Jim Robinson's Muirkirk Black Sox added another victory to their string by defeating the Baltimore Sluggers by the score of 14 to 9 last Sunday. The Muirkirks who starred were, Milton who made a home run with two men on base; Woods got three triples out of five times at bat, while Burley made a fine running catch with his bare hand, which cut off the Sluggers' rally in the eighth. Wimbush was on the mound for the Sox. WANTS GAMES. The Quantico Athletics of Quantico, Va., issues a challenge to any semi-pro team in this section for games at home or abroad. For games write C. E.

PHYSICAL DIRECTOR PROMOTES JUNIOR ATHLETICS A splendid experiment is being conducted admirably by Mr. Albert Knorl, teacher at the New Mott School, assisted by the principal and teachers of that school. Mr. Knorl has arranged a series of playground baseball games between the various teams representing different grades of the Mott School. The teams have been named after the members of the two big leagues and the games are played at the recess periods. The games are properly umpired, scored and reported. A big new progress of constructive educational work is thus afforded. The scheme harnesses the effervescing vitality of the boys and turns it into habits of conduct through organized play. Many playgrounds connected with the schools are large enough to provide for the playing of playground base ball in which most of the elements of base ball are preserved. A few rules differ because of the short base lines, ball and bat. In many cities this form of the game is being used because of the limited amount of play space. For information see members of the P.

Theatrical Notes GOOD SHOW AT HOWARD Brown and Marguerite—whirlwind dancers—were the big time vaudeville act at the Howard Theatre this week. They were formally on the Pantages circuit and have an offer to go into burlesque next season. They opened their act with a dream waltz. Brown did a difficult soft shoe dance, and the team closed with an Apache dance. The first number on the program was Bruce and Skinner, melody singers. Madam Beatrice Bruce rendered an old melody alternating in soprano and contralto voices. Bailey and Jackson, billed as "the spade and the wop,' followed.' They did two dialoges with Brown made up first as a Jew and then as an Italian. Miss Bailey nearly stopped the show when she did a jazz dance with a dummy. Miss Bobby Covington, a soprano, sang one sentimental number and then two jazz songs. She closed with a "Charleston" dance. The second half of the program was given over to a burlesque show, "The Radio Dolls" in "The New Waiter." It was clean and entertaining. The musical specialties, which included a violin solo by Harold Kendrick, a saxophone solo by Corey Cook and a piano accordenion solo by Ross Lewis, were exceptionally good. BIG SHOW COMING TO BROADWAY . Starting Sunday and Monday, May 17 and 18, the first time shown uptown, the Broadway Theartre will present on the screen a story by the world's greatest writer Harold Bell Wright "The Mine With The Iron Door."

LINCOLN PLAYERS Charles E. Lane, Jr., manager of the Lincoln Theater, presented the Lincoln Players in a one-act drama entitled "As Any Man Should," last Friday and Saturday evenings. The play was written by and staged under the direction of George L. Cooper. "As Any Man Should" is a crook play, in which the hero is a deformed criminal who kills his gang leader to save his sister from his lust. Charles Lane, who was at one time with the Lafayette Players chose the role of "Butch' Mullens for his return to the stage. He looked the part when he came on and demanded the "swag" from "The Rat" and "Hat Pin" Hattie. His entrance was greeted with loud applause. Eddie Saunders as "The Rat" was very good. It was he who killed Mullens. Miss Isabelle Webster had the role of "Hat Pink" Hattie. Jim Green, the foster father of Annie Green, was played by James Cobb. Miss Dot Dodson played the part of Annie Green, "The Rat's" sister. The talent show bill was opened by Miss Bobbie Covington, a coloratura soprano, of Chicago.

Letters to the Editor LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The Editor, The Washington Tribune: Dear Sir: The affair that occurred at the International Council of Women, in the New Auditorium last week was one of the best blows that has ever hit segregation. This will not only create publicity in America but will be world-wide. We as a race should express our sincere gratitude to Miss Hallie Q. Brown, Miss Mary Europe, Professors Roy Tibbs, Henry Grant, Nathaniel Dett, Henry Lewis, and to the singers representing the various groups, for refusing to perform after ADMISSION Matinee, 30c. Eve, 50, & 30c. Grace Smith, ingenuine of the company; Helen Dolly soubrette, formerly with "Dixie to Broadway"; Bob Shields "the Strutting King" the "Charleston Dance Dolls," Alex Lovejoy, one of the most original comedians of the race, and a sealskin barelegged beauty chorus. Miss Smith heading the company is the originator of the blues. Her career reads like a fascinating novel, from the time she began recording. She is of Southern birth, her voice carried her to New York at an early age, and from that time to untill the present, her popularity has grown until now she is known from coast to coast and from Mexico to Maine. learning that the colored people had been segregated in the balcony. It was an interesting sight to see how quietly they departed after an announcement had been made from the stage by Miss Brown. I believe that if we as a race would cooperate with each other as was demonstrated at this affair our problems would be quickly solved. To the Editor of The Tribune: Respecting the great victory won by the Republican party during the last political campaign, and in view of the fact that there have been numerous appointments made by the President and some of the officials under him, to the exclusion of the Colored faithful workers in that memorable political battle, I desire to ask, Have the Negroes been bitten by their own dog? It seems so. And what, then, has become of the great party of Lincoln, Sumner, Grant and the rest of the sainted statesmen who did not think it any belittling thing to recognize the worth and faithfulness of the Colored Race? The present administration did nothing for the Colored brother because it was too busy carrying out the Harding policies. And, so far as the Negro is concerned, the good President is still working on the Harding policies. During the campaign these so-called leading Negroes caught sight of the alluring Republican rainbow. It looked good to them. They thought it was within their easy reach. They bade their people (who seem to never tire of being fooled) to come on—come on, boys—we'll soon catch the pretty things! They pursued it until the ballot boxes were closed on the night of the election. And the rainbow vanished! And they, the so- called leaders, haven't seen that rainbow, or any of its allurements since. Have they been bitten by their own dog? Being so slow about recognizing the Colored brother, many of the weak-kneed and weak-minded Negroes use to say, "Give the Presidency time. Just wait until he gets elected and have the Presidency in his own right. Then he'll do something. Just give him time!" Yes, I say so too. Just give him time to fill all of the places, with deserving white Republicans while refusing to give the faithful colored Republicans even the crumbs that fall from the table. Even District Attorney Payton Gordon can see no god in any of the faithful and deserving Colored lawyers here. He, too, like his chief, seems to take pleasure in ignoring real manhood whose skin happens to be dark. There are some good colored lawyers here in Washington as can be found any where in this country—and it is a lasting shame on these white Republicans to turn them down simply because God has seen fit to make their skins dark. Colored brother, it is time for you to open your eyes and cease to be made fools of. This is not the first, second. LINCOLN THEATRE SUNDAYS AND HOLIDAYS—ADULTS, 15c ALL DAY Wm.

HOWARD STUDENTS LACK CONFIDENCE IN FACULTY Use of the student body at Howard University, 17th, reached such proportions by May 14th of the old story of an irresistible force meddling. In this case, the faculty of Howard University and the student body, for seven days, force, with Howard University itself in by the intelligent, unselfish, noble action of the representation of a group of leading students, D.C., was the collision, which would al the doom of our one great institution, a student body by its concession, showed itself, sooner in vision, and far in advance of that Howard University and the public, not student body, would be the real losers, if they against a faculty so much behind the age. It was a noble exemplification of the work the students to concede and to find a more redressing just grievances, lest "Dear O'Brien"atal blow. A administration of Howard has been so poor in the student body a lack of confidence in justly denied. Otherwise, the strike work such proportions; and graduates would have largely and readily to Howard's appeal. There is not further delay taking cognizance of the thorough investigation in order that the student an attitude may be removed. It owes a students and second to the public. Howard is not to the faculty, nor to the students, but to the Alumni and the public should demand taken as to create good will, unity of purpose and unity of action in the student body and for the good of Howard. Utility should promptly settle the grievances of the faculty. It should study the history of the efforts and be convinced that a better and more obtained by creating in the student a learn, than by fostering the students' feeling learn by means other than by the lure of the full, broad mind. The faculty must awake as men, catch cadence with the rapid strife and take advantage of the power of good will and action that a noticeable respect by, and, students and the country at large may One Evelyn C. Hunt, of the Washington Herald's staff was so astounded by the Negro's awakening of race loyalty and his denunciation of segregation at the Quinquennial convention recently that she comes forth with a comment, in the "Society and Dramatic" section of the Herald, that: All of the negroes did not leave because the darkies had been segregated in the gallery . . . This sudden excitement about the negroes being given seats in the gallery tends one to believe the statements made by many that all the talk and complaints about it Tuesday evening was stirred up by a Bolshevik communist group working on the quiet. Surely if they had hoped to get any nice people to attend the music festival they had to segregate the darkies to the gallery. We consider it almost useless to address our remarks to the writer of the foregoing quotation because she belongs to the old school of Southern race prejudices and there is little hope of her renouncing its policy. We turn, instead, to the Publisher of the Washington Herald who, by evidence of the growth of the publication, has kept himself more abreast of the age and far more governed by reason. Yet we are unable to understand just why he should permit the publication of the quoted comment clothed in such language. A newspaper holds a more useful position in a community than that of creating friction which tends to hamper progress. It is the main source from which the public generally draws its information. It has extreme power in making war, or in spoiling peace. It can accomplish all sorts of good and great things. Our national prosperity demands that the Negro and the white man know each other. And there is no greater factor in bringing about or hindering this than the press of which the Washington Herald is a part. Hearst publications have incessantly acclaimed their position as being interested in the common weal of Americans, and in many instances have substantiated their claim. Yet it seems absurd to expect international harmony when we are unable to bring peace and quiet in our home (nation). Surely there can be no international co-operation unless founded on mutual respect. There can be no mutual respect unless founded on racial respect. And there can be no racial respect unless founded on self-respect—that self-respect which demands respect of others. The most accurate, dispassionate record and picture of the news as it concerns the two races are prerequisites of democracy. The interchange of information between the races, in terms not likely to create race hostility, will cause better race understanding, promote the aim of democracy and bring about co-operation in a fundamental way. The policy of the American journalist must, therefore, be founded on American self-respect, that American self-respect which does not disrespect members of America's citizenry. The American journalist must keep the interests of his readers to the fore. He must be true to Americans. In so far as he fails in this, he likewise fails to do his bit in building that constructive American tradition which has been in process of building since the foundation of the Republic. The Washington Herald owes an apology to the citizens of the National Capital, carrying with it a practical assurance that it will not again be guilty of such a dastardly insult. Otherwise, intelligent Washington can not respect its opinions. HOWARD STUDENTS LACK CONFIDENCE IN FACULTY The strike of the student body at Howard University, which began May 7th, reached such proportions by May 14th as to remind one of the old story of an irresistible force meeting an immovable body. In this case, the faculty of Howard was the immovable body and the student body, for seven days, was the irresistible force, with Howard University itself in the middle. And only by the intelligent, unselfish, noble action of the student body, "on the representation of a group of leading citizens of Washington, D.C.," was the collision, which would have done much to seal the doom of our one great institution, averted. The student body by its concession, showed itself, to be bigger in spirit, keener in vision, and far in advance of the faculty. It realized that Howard University and the public, not the faculty nor the student body, would be the real losers, if the strike was prolonged against a faculty so much behind the age in thought and vision. It was a noble exemplification of the willingness on the part of the students to concede and to find a more efficacious method of redressing just grievances, lest "Dear Old Howard" sustain a fatal blow. That the administration of Howard has been so conducted as to create in the student body a lack of confidence in the faculty can not be justly denied. Otherwise, the strike would not have reached such proportions; and graduates would have responded more willingly and readily to Howard's appeal. The Administration can not further delay taking cognizance of this fact and making a thorough investigation in order that the causes giving rise to such an attitude may be removed. It owes its first duty to the students and second to the public. Howard University belongs, not to the faculty, nor to the students, but to the Nation. Therefore, the Alumni and the public should demand that such action be taken as to create good will, unity of purpose, unity of thought and unity of action in the student body and graduates and faculty for the good of Howard. The faculty should promptly settle the grievances without further penalty. It should study the history of the effects of compulsory laws and be convinced that a better and more lasting effect can be obtained by creating in the student body a desire to learn, than by fostering the students' feeling of being forced to learn by means other than by the lure of the gains and benefits of a full, broad mind. The faculty must awaken, acquit themselves as men, catch cadence with the rapid strides of civilization, and take advantage of the power of good will, unity of purpose and action that a noticeable respect by, and a telling influence over, students and the country at large may be forthcoming.

He stated that he had been misquoted so much during the strike, that he had to refuse to say anything. It was just as hard to find out who called the policeman to the campus Wednesday as it was to make the sphinx talk. Everybody denied they did it.

In the event that the stockholder should approve the loan, the press board of directors is authorized. At the Wednesday meeting, one boy who had been an avowed "Jelly-back" which is the name given to students not supporting the strike, made a fervent speech in which he declared that he would never go to school as long as the bluecoats were present. His speech made a big hit with the gathering. Monday, a little altercation was precipitated by Dean of Men Parks when he removed the "Jelly-back" list from the wall in the corridor of the main building. The Dean put the list in his office and locked the door, but the students went through the window and brought it out again. Once more the Dean took the sign down, this time he failed to reach his office before the students had taken it away from him by force. A blockade was formed at the stairs leading to the class rooms in the main building which was very effective. However, with the advent of the police, this blockade was removed, Wednesday, but the attendance in classes was less than any previous day. Thursday morning there were no policemen to be seen anywhere. Their withdrawal was as sudden as their coming. Several members of the alumni stated to a Tribune reporter that they resented the cold manner in which they had been treated all during the period of the strike. A rumor was started early in the week that the faculty was not voting as they talked. Some students stated that members of the faculty were telling them privately they were for the students, but would vote against them in faculty meeting. This, according to gossip, was being done in order to prolong the strike, in the hopes that the strikers would hurt President Durkee. Several articles in the daily papers stated that the strike was really aimed at Dr. Durkee. This, however, the members of the Student Council emphatically denied. The strikers' slogan, according to the little cards they wear is, "We are striking for a principal." Members of the R. O. T. C., who are under contract with the Government to drill so many hours a week, fulfilled their contracts by drilling on the designated days. These sudents receive monthly pay from the Government. Their actions were in accord with the rest of the students. The Senior class met Tuesday night and voted unanimously to continue their support of the strike, graduation or no graduation. Practically every class in the college department voted this way. The preachers or students in the School of Religion did not strike. They stated that they settled their grievances by prayer. No students in the Medical, Dental, Pharmaceutical or Law departments are involved in this strike. These classes are going on as usual.

Mitchell, president of the New Masonic Hall Corporation. Herbert L. Davis, an auditor for the District Supreme Court. The decree of the court provides for the securing of a loan of the real estate of the New Masonic Hall Corporation under a first deed of trust in an amount sufficient, exclusive of stock subscriptions unpaid and collectible, to liquidate the existing indebtedness for labor and material already furnished to rthe erection of the unfinished Masonic Temple, and in such additional amount as may be required to complete the structure and equip the building when finished. The committee eis first to ascertain the amount of the existing indebtedness and the amount of unpaid and collectible subscriptions to the capital stock. It is to obtain estimates from reputable builders as to the cost of completion of the building.

If the committee finds, however, that they are unable to negotiate a loan upon the land and uncompleted building sufficient in amount to complete the erection of the temple, then the committee is directd to submit to the court their recommendations as to a plan for financing the proposition. If the committee eshould be able to obtain a loan sufficient to complete and equip the building, and the loan shall be approved by the stockholders and the proper action taken on it by the board of directors, the court's decree provides that the completion of the loan shall be effectuated by the execution of the necessary notes and trusts and the committee shall make its report to the court for further instructions or action by the court as to the method and manner of the construction of the building to its final completion. The decree specifically provides that nothing in it shall be construed as a determination of the questions raised in the case, all of which, with the consent of counsel, are reserved by the court for its further decrees. The plaintiffs sought a receivership, an accounting by the trustees of the corporation and an injunction of the trustees for increasing the capital stock of the corporation and restraining them from securing a loan to complete the building.

Dr. Lucius Brown of Freedmen's Hospital addressed the class on "What Freedmen's Hospital has to offer the Medical Student." He gave a short history of the hospital and told of the wonderful advantages we have over other schools and that Freedmen's Hospital was the seat of the clinical material for our medical students. DR. BROWNE'S LECTURE Dr. Benjamin F. Browne, a graduate of the dental college, 1911, gave a lecture on "Some Business and Practical Phases of Dentistry," to the senior class of the Dental College under the auspices of the Interstate Dental Association. Dr. Browne's address swas very enjoyable and was of great benefit to the dental students. Dr. Browne was entertained by the Robert T. Freeman Dental Society while in town. 1920 and that rule is, to abstain entirely from all drinks as beverage, which possess power to intoxicate, in all places and under all circumstances. You can not continually play with temptation without sooner or later yielding. This is your only safe-guard. Observe this rule and you are entirely beyond the reach of the monster intemperance; but break this rule, however slightly, and you are exposed to great danger.

Dett and Choir at Dunbar The Dunbar High School Honor Society at a reception in honor of the faculty last week, presented an interesting program including The Hampton Institute Choir, under the direction of Dr. Nathaniel Dett, one of the leading composers of the country. The choir rendered "Gently, Lord, Oh, Gently Lead Us," "I'll Never Turn Back No More" and "Don't Be Weary, Traveler," all arrangements of Negro themes on a high choral plane. Speaking of Dr. Dett and The Hampton Choir, we are reminded of the segregation incident at the Washington Auditorium recently and how the colored people thronged the place at One Dollar a head. Still many of these same people no doubt refused to pay even fifty cents to go to Lincoln Theatre during the Artist Course Series presenting our best musical stars last season where there was no segregation of races. Local Musicians Broadcast It was a pleasure and rare treat to hear Dr. Eva B. Dykes, pianist, and Miss Estelle Pinkney, soprano, in a brilliant radio-program over WCAP one evening last week from 10 to 11 p.m. in a special musical program in the interest of National Music Week under the auspices of Washington Beta Chapter of the Delta Sigma Sorority, as follows: (a) "Oh, Quand Je Dors" (Liszt) (b) "Robin, Robin, Sing Me a Song," Estelle Pinkney, soprano; (a) "The Lark" (Glinka), (b) "Golliwog's Cakewalk" (Debussy), (c) "Etude in F Sharp Major" (Arensky), Eva B. Dykes, pianist; (a) "Homing" (Del Riego), (b) "The Trees Have Grown So" (Burleigh), (c) "Song of the Open" (La Forge), Estelle Pinkney, soprano. Miss Janie M. Green to Sing Miss Janie M. Green, soprano, will be presented in a vocal concert program by two local church choirs as follows: Florida Avenue Baptist Church, Rev. Dr. W. A. Taylor, pastor, Friday evening May 22nd, under the auspices of the choir, Miss Hattie P. Ivy, president, and at the Israel C. M. E. Church, Rev. Dr. C. L. Russell, pastor, Thursday evening May 28th, under the auspices of the Choir, Mr G. M. Smith, president. Miss Green possesses one of the highest soprano voices of any singer in this section and people praises her singing as exceptional. One must hear her to appreciate the character of her singing.

MAY 23rd TO BE BIG DAY FOR LOCAL BOY SCOUTS At a recent meeting of the Scoutmasters' 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. Persons interested in Boy Scout work can receive information by making an appointment with Hilliard B. Halbrook, 927 15th Street, Northwest; Room 1109; or telephone, Main 2811. The third article follows: Following the meet it is planned to have a barbecue in charge of Mr. L. W. Oldham, 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 SCOUT SALUTE The scout salute is rendered by raising the right hand with the fingers held as in the scout sign, to the forehead, or to the brim of the hat, palm being turned to the left, the fingers being in front of the corner of the eye, and the forearm making an angle of forty-five degrees with the horizontal. The scout salute is always rendered with the right hand. Rules of the Meet The general rules and regulations governing the meet are very simple: 1. Each troop may enter but one team in each event. 2. All contestants must be under 18 years of age and active, registered scouts in good standing. The boy scout handclasp is made with the left hand. The three fingers represent the three parts of the Scout Oath, and the bent position of the thumb and the little finger represent the knot or tie that binds these parts together into a strong unity. One scout shakes hands with another by a good warm handclasp, with the thumb and little finger clasped around the other's fingers. This left handclasp is used by every country in the world, and the American scout can feel he is one of a world brotherhood when 3. Each scout may enter but one event as a contest. 4. Coaching during the contest will not be allowed. Points for places will be as follows: 5-3-1 for first, second, and third places respectively. 5. A scout may not be used as a patient or assistant in the event preceding the one in which he is to participate as a contest. 6. The events will be conducted in the order listed above.

(Nat'l Equal Rights League Service) (Continued from last week) The Massacre Anniversary The anniversary of the Boston Massacre was observed on the 5th of March each year thereafter until July 4 was substituted as Independence Day. There was great solemnity on that day and eloquent orators spoke on the blessings of liberty and the horrors of slavery. Four years later, when John Han- HENRY H. H. cock, signer of the Declaration of Independence, was orator at the anniversary he exclaimed: "Do not the injured shades of Maverick, Gray, Caldwell, Attacks and Carr attend you in your solitary walks; arrest you in the midst of your debaucheries and fill even your dreams with terror?"

The Attucks Monument On Boston Common stands a monument erected to the memory of the heroes of the Boston Massacre. It is called "The Crispus Attucks Monument." The agitation for the erection of this was started by William C. Nell. It is said that the face representing Crispus Attucks is carved in the likeness of the late Lewis Hayden—another Colored abolitionist and a former slave. The figure of the woman at the summit is said to be that of a Boston Colored girl, Mary Smith, who was considered very beau- At the unveiling of the monument the silken cord was pulled by Lillian Chappelle the little daughter of the late Julius C. Chappelle, who at that time was either five or six years old. She is now grown up and the widow of a young Philadelphia named Benjamin. On the bronze relief of the monument are these quotations: "From that moment we may date the severance of the British Empire."—Daniel Webster. "On that night the foundation of American Idependence was laid."—John Adams. Each year the Boston Equal Rights League places a wreath on the grave of Crispus Attucks and those buried with him, and also hangs a wreath on the Crispus Attucks Monument, with public exercises. On the memorial stone placed over the grave are these lines: "Long as in Freedom's cause the wise contend, Dear to your country shall your fame extend; While to the world the lettered stone shall tell Where Caldwell, Attucks, Gray and Maverick fell." THE END TRIBUNITE'S PLEDGE 1. I will never use the word "nigger." 2. I will learn all that I can about the history and traditions of my Race. 3. I will use my eyes and ears to detect slander against my Race, and I will champion my Race wherever I may hear such slander. 4. I will be proud that I am a Negro because God made me one, and being a Negro, I will do all that I can add to honor to my Race. THE STUDY OF NEGRO LIFE AND HISTORY Under the auspices of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, students and teachers from all over the country met in a spring conference in Durham, N.C., to discuss the Negro. Schools, clubs and co-operative organizations from various parts of the country were represented. What has been done in these fields was reviewed and plans for further efforts were worked out and put into execution. "When do leaves begin to turn?" "The night before exams." Teacher—"Johnny, can you name a city in Alaska?" Johnny—"No'm." Teacher—"Very good; Nome is a large city."

My hair, which should be woman's greatest charm, used to be coarse and unruly due to dandruff, and my face was sallow and often bore ugly pimples. "I had heard Exelento Quinine Pomade praised on all sides and I got a package and began using it as directed. The results were astonishing. My dandruff all left me and my hair began to get so soft and silky that it was a delight to comb it." "Then I began to use Exelento Skin Soap on my face and the results were equally amazing. All blemishes disappeared and my face became soft, smooth and beautiful." Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Skin Soap may be obtained for only 25% each at all drug stores or will be sent, postpaid, upon receipt of price.
