CITIZENS AROUSED OVER BEACH First in Local Circulation. CITIZ LOSES SUIT FOR $10,000 AGAINST AMUSEMENT PARK The Universal Development and Loan Company on Monday in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, successfully defended an action for $10,000 damages against it by Mrs. Nellie Cope for injuries alleged to have been sustained by her on June 30, 1924, in a fall from the Merry-Go-Round at the Suburban Gardens. Mr. T. Morris Wampler represented Mrs. Cope, and Messrs. Chas. H. Houston and George E. C. Hayes appeared for the Universal Development and Loan Company. Under the severe cross-examination of Messrs. Houston and Hayes, the witnesses for the plaintiff broke down, and upon motion the Court directed the jury to return a verdict for the defendant. The case has aroused much interest among the lawyers because Mrs. Cope had already obtained a judgment against the company in the same action in October, 1924, before Messrs. Houston and Hayes were retained by the company. Upon entering the case they discovered the error in the proceedings, had the judgment set aside and finally on Monday defeated the plaintiff at the trial. Sues Street Car Co. For $15,000 Damages A suit for $15,000 damages have been filed against the Wash. Railway and Electric Company by Weldon H. Holcomb, for injuries sustained in a collision between an automobile which he was driving and two street cars at the intersection of Fifth and E Streets, Northwest, on September 17, 1923. Holcomb is a Government employee who lives at 1757 U Street, Northwest. At the time of the accident, Mr. Holcomb was driving an automobile with Governor H. Bartlett, first assistant postmaster General, in it. They were going eastward when struck by two street cars, one of which was going North and the other South. Both Governor Bartlett and Mr. Holcomb were injured. Mr. Holcomb claims that the accident was the result of the negligence of the street car conductors. He alleges that they failed to give due or timely notice or warning of their approach. As a result of the collision, he says he suffered severe and permanent injuries.

Gaskins, who are representing five men and one woman convicted of conspiracy to violate the prohibition law, have noted an appeal and secured the release of their clients on bail pending the determination of their appeal.

Cook Retired PUBLISHED WEEKLY ZENS Reorganization To Bring Ma Dean Geo. Further trouble at Howard University is developing as the result of a survey of the various departments of the institution by R. J. Leonard of the school of education of Columbia University. In his report, which has been adopted by the board of trustees, Mr. Leonard recommended the discontinuance of the junior college and the school of commerce and finance and the dismissal of approximately ten teachers. The reason given for abolishing the junior college is that the work of a junior college has not yet been successfully developed by any school and that Howard University has not sufficient funds to conduct the experiment. The abolition of the junior college automatically puts Kelly Miller, its dean, out of a job. It is suggested, however, that he be selected to raise funds annually for the university. A rule adopted by the board of trustees forced the retirement of George W. Cook, dean of the school of commerce and finance, which is also abolished. The rule provides that teachers who reach the age of 65 shall be automatically retired and those who have served the university for a period of 15 years shall receive one-third of their annual salary yearly upon their retirement. The school of education was not abolished, as has been reported, but the various departments of the university doing work which is a duplication of some of that done in that school are all merged into a college of education. Whether or not Dean Dwight O. W. Holmes will be retained as the head of the college of education could not be learned. Reports of these changes and impending dismissals served as an impetus to the attacks on the administration by members of the alumni association, and the resignation of J. Stanley Durkee, president of Howard University, has been demanded. Proposed Demotion is Protested The Barry Farm Citizens Association closed a successful series of monthly meetings last Tuesday evening at St. John Methodist Church, Anacostia. This was the last meeting of this season, as the organization does not meet during the summer months. To show the importance of the work carried on by the organization, a number of letters were read from various prominent persons dealing on the activities of the association. A resolution was unanimously adopted and directed to the school heads and the Board of Education, protesting the announced intentions of certain school officials to demote at the expiration of this school term, two directors of music, namely, Miss Josephine Wormley of Division 10 to 13 and Miss Edna Gordon of the Birney School Choral Society. The resolution stated that the association wished these women continue in their present work, in which they have labored hard and long. STEVENS SCHOOL PUPILS GIVE CANTATA On Wednesday, June 3rd, the parents and friends of the first and second grade pupils of Stevens School witnessed one of the most delightful and successful musical entertainments of the season.

M. E. Zion Church. Among the interested spectators were Misses Merrit, Gibbs, Mesdames Fletcher, Boyd, Madden, Smith, Mr. Sumner Fletcher, and Rev. C. C. Williams. WASHINGTON, D.C. SATURDAY, JUNE 13, 1925 FEWER NEGRO TRUSTEES ON HOWARD BOARD The total number of colored persons on the board of Trustees of Howard University was reduced by two at the meeting last week when the terms of four colored men expired and an additional vacancy by reason of the death of Andrew F.

Commencement at Howard University Howard University held its fifty-sixth annual commencement exercises last Friday afternoon on the university campus. The commencement address was delivered by Dr. Jas. E. Shepard, president of the Durham State College, Durham, N.C. His subject was "The Possibilities and Responsibilities of Citizenship." His message to the graduating classes was to teach lessons of love. The exercise was preceded by an academic procession. The R. O. T. C. band played an overture, "Poet and Peasant," after which invocation was offered by the Rev. Walter A. Morgan, pastor of Mt. Pleasant Congregational Church, Washington, D.C. Joseph T. Thomas rendered a cornet solo, "Calvary." Dr. Hubert Work, Secretary of the Interior, was presented and spoke briefly. Then came the announcement address by Dr. Shepard. At its conclusion, the R. O.

Davis, Assistant Secretary of War, made a few remarks after the oath of office had been administered to the graduating class of the Reserved Officers Training Corps, and then presented them with commissions. The conferring of degrees by Dr. J. Stanley Durkee, president of Howard University, on more than three hundred candidates followed. The prize winners were announced by Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard. A. B. Howard rendered a trombone solo, "Slim Trombone" and benediction was pronounced by the Rt. Rev. E. D. W. Jones, Bishop of the A. M. E. Zion Church.

Church, 14th and B Streets, Northeast, died at his home Thursday morning after a short illness. His death came as a great shock to his congregation and friends. Rev.

Funeral services will be held on Sunday, June 14th at 2 p.m., from Brown Memorial Church. Prominent men in the A. M. E. Church connection will be present. Rev. Jones was just beginning his fifth year at this church having been re-assigned at the last Conference which was held in Baltimore, Md., two weeks ago. He was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, and received his education at Wilberforce University. He was considered one of the best scholars in the denomination. He is survived by his wife. HOWARD ALUMNI ELECT NEW OFFICERS 1 The general Alumni Association of Howard University met in annual session, Thursday June 4, in Rankin Chapel on the Campus. The orator of the day was Mrs. Agnesday Durrah of Plainfield, New Jersey. Mrs. Durrah spoke on the subject "The Duty of The Alumni." In her remarks, she urged the Alumni to support President and the Board of Trustees. The call for reports of committees brought no report from the committee on constitution. The next motion was to go into the election of officers. This was called, the secretary announced the vote after which the president made the declaration. The proponents of the proposed constitution immediately began a determined fight to sidetrack the election and consider a constitution which had been proposed by a committee appointed by President Carter early last fall. This proposed constitution was promptly attacked on the ground that neither the association nor the executive committee had authorized the presentation of any new constitution, nor had any committee been authorized to draft one. President Carter ruled that under the terms of the present constitution he had the authority to appoint and had appointed this committee. The association took a different view of the matter and promptly overruled the decision of the chair. An hour of wrangling ensued, a large group trying to force President Carter to make a declaration on the vote to over-rule and a small group trying to stall off the election to consider the proposed constitution. The line-up at this point became cemented. Atty. William H. Houston, Atty. Campbell C. Johnson, secretary of the local Y. M. C. A. and Mr. Robert H. Pelham led the fight to interrupt the election and consider the constitution. The other and larger group led by Atty. William F. Dennp of Richmond, Va., Atty. David C. Outlear of New York and Atty. Isaac H. Nutter of Atlantic City, N.J., joined hands with the "Old Guard" and insisted on the regular order which was the election of officers as had been voted by the association. When it became evident that confusion would continue, Atty. M. Mazyck was permitted to begin reading the proposed constitution. At this point a motion to suspend the reading of the proposed constitution and to empower the incoming president to appoint a committee to bring a constitution in June 1926, was put and carried. This stroke shattered the Durkee-Emory Smith forces and the regular order followed. The election of Rev. George Frazier (Continued on page 8) SERIOUS TROUBLE THREATENED IN VIRGIN ISLES St. Thomsa, V.I., May 23—Reports from the Virgin Islands chronicle the latest exploits of the Naval administration, to wit: Captain P. Williams, Governor of the Virgin Islands of the United States, recently addressed the Legislature a letter to the effect that unless the present tax rate upon Real Property be increased 100 per cent (from one to two per cent on assessed value) and Personal Property from one quarter to one half per cent, by the Legislature he would request Congress to pass legislation making this increase, regardless of the fact that the people of these Islands are now overburdened with taxes. Frequent arrests of violators of the 18th Amendment have been recently made and trial without jury given; Fines ranging from $20 to $300 have been imposed and no notice given of the disposal of the liquor confiscated. The latest demonstration of battleship administration is the dissolution of the Colonial Council of St. Croix, V.I.U.S.A. because this body thru its chairman, refused, to correct a blunder made by Captain Williams, the Governor. The people are indignant over this showing of autocratic powers and shows our contention that civil, military and judicial powers should be wrested from thes Naval students sent here to manage our affairs. The colored press of the United States should feature the necessity for a remedy to this disgrace to the American nation by advocating a civil form of government for these islands, to be operated along American lines—not Navy Rule. There is a strong demand for qualified colored attorneys here to assist the people in having "their day in court." GRADUATES LARGE CLASS Omaha, Neb.-One of the most notable graduation exercises ever held in this vicinity was that of the Madam C. J. Walker College of Beauty Culture of this city, June 3rd. The graduating class was composed of fourteen graduates. Attorney Robert Lee Brokenburr assistant general manager of the Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company, was present and spoke. It is to be noted that these exercises were a part of a series conducted this spring by the branch Beauty Culture Colleges of the Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company. FAMOUS "BLACK DEVILS" BAND HERE MONDAY Tim Brym and his famous "Black Devils Band" of New York City have been secured by the management of the Suburban Gardens for a special dance music concert at the Gardens next Monday night, June 15th. In securing this band, the management stated that they have secured for Washington's approval, one of the best and jazziest musical organizations in the world. The band is composed of eight musical masters. Every man is a specialist on his instrument. Included in the band is Ted Nixon, a Washington boy who is now a sensation around New York on the trombone. Other members of the orchestra are: Tim Brym, piano; W. Cox, trumpet; E. Bullock, alto saxophone; Dick Ward, drums; Alex Shepard, Susa phone bass; Prince Robinson, tenor saxophone; Herbert Falkner, banjo. This band has been featured on Columbia and Okeh records. In order to give the dancing and music loving public of Washington, the chance to dance to superlative music, the garden's management has secured this organization at an enormous expense. A program that is rarely heard in this section is promised. This stellar attraction was secured at the booking office of Billy Pierce formerly of this city. Attempt on Part of Col. C.O. Sherrill To Extend Segregation is Resented Attempt on C. O. Sherril Segregation (By WOW) The hot summer weather of last week, besides bringing out a large amount of perspiration, has brought out also a large amount of race prejudice. This prejudice has manifested itself in the attempt of Lieut. Col C. Sherrill in charge of public buildings and grounds, to segregate the colored people off to Buzzard's Point for bathing facilities. This attempt on the part of Col. Sherrill, has met with stiff opposition from all Negroes in the District of Columbia. As part of the program of trying to convince certain Congressmen that the Negroes here were satisfied with his proposed arrangements, Col. Sherrill had the Citizens Advisory Committee send telegrams to certain members of Congress which were grossly inaccurate and misleading. The wording of the telegrams was as follows: "Excessive heat and numerous drownings make imperative immediate opening of Tidal Basin bathing beach. Col. Sherrill will operate on private funds if approved by chairmen of appropriations and District Committees. Satisfactory arrangements also for colored bathers. Citizens Advisory Council, including two colored members, recommend and ask your approval. Wire answer." The action of the Advisory Council so far as it pertained to colored people was not as stated in the telegram. The two Negro members, Dr. George H. Richardson and George T. Beason, were surprised when they saw the telegram. The council took no action as to making satisfactory arrangements for Negroes. In fact, the matter of bathing facilities for colored was put up to the Federated body of colored associations, by the Council only this week, and no action had been taken up to the time of the sending of the telegrams. The two race members of the Advisory Council expressed themselves vigorously opposed to locating a beach at Buzzard's Point, which Colonel Sherrill persists in calling "Jones' Point." In fact, the Federated Council of Colored Associations now has on file with Col. Sherrill a resolution opposing separate beaches located anywhere and demanding facilities in the Tidal Basin as long as a public beach is maintained there. In addition to trying to shove the colored population off to an unhealthy, unsanitary and unsafe place, Col. Sherrell also desires to add to this proposed beach, the first segregated park. His purpose to do this was disclosed Tuesday when he stated "the best place for the colored beach is undoubtedly at Jones (Buzzard) Point, where a considerable tract of land could be acquired at low figures and an ideal park could be created not only for bathing, but various other recreational activities for the colored people." This has been Col. Sherrill's desire for a number of years. On Easter Monday in 1922, he had p. in Rock Creek Park, jim-crow signs. However, these were torn down by the colored people as soon as they were discovered, and Col. Sherrill spent quite a deal of time trying to explain how they came to be there. Now he sees another opportunity to try to force separate parks on Negroes. Unless both races use the beach at Tidal Basin, the Negroes of the District are unalterably opposed to its being used at all. In this position they are supported by the stand taken by Congress last winter. Senator Walsh of Montana, who introduced the resolution which killed bathing in the basin, in speaking on the matter, last February said: "Many would refuse to vote to reject the appropriation for the care and maintenance of the new bathing beach and at the same time sustain an appropriation for the care, maintenance, and operation of the one that Washington's Best Advertising Medium. PRICE 5 CENTS EACH Part of Col. ll To Extend is Resented is there now, which would signify that the Congress expressed a preference for the white population of the District as against the colored population. I do not think there is any disposition upon the part of the Senate to make that discrimination and I believe it was the sense of the Senate that we ought to treat the two in exactly the same way and allow both races to bathe there or allow neither to bathe there." Yet, this week, Col. Sherrill states: "The best place for the colored beach is undoubtedly at Jones (Buzzard) Point," which is on Anacostia River, two miles from the Tidal Basin. Just a few months ago, however, this same Col. Sherrill in testimony before the Sub-committee of the Committee on Appropriations of the United States Senate, Sixty-Eighth Congress, Second Session, at the hearings on the District of Columbia Appropriation Bill for 1926 (page 52), in discussing the Anacostia River beaches, said: "Then we tried to find two places in Anacostia (River) where we could put both beaches and in both instances we found the sewage conditions had not been cleared up by the completion of some of the main sewers, so the water, under sanitary tests, was very foul with raw sewage. So, the Secretary of War was at the end of his rope; he had no place to put the beaches except in the Tidal Basin. It seems to me that is the best site for the time being you can possibly get." Buzzard's Point, (called Jones Point by Col. Sherrill, probably because it sounds nicer) is just what the name implies. It is located on the Anacostia River at the foot of First Street, Southwest; it is one mile from a car line and one-fourth of the distance is extremely bad, unimproved road. The place was formerly a dumping ground and naturally abounds with rubbish of all kind. The river bottom is full of bottles, cans and other dangerous pieces of refuge. A sewage pumping station is about three blocks up the river from the point; just above that is the Navy Yard and the Gas Plant. The channel of the river is rather narrow and swings close to the point. It is very deep, permitting large ocean-going boats to get up to the Navy Yard. This point has been used by indiscreet bathers of both races just as many other points of the river have been used. If such unsanitary conditions prevailed last winter, what has transpired to improve matters? At that time, Col. Sherrill was asking Congress to appropriate money for a beach in the Tidal Basin. Why does he change so completely now? Surely the conditions complained of have not been cleared up, because if we are to believe this same Col. Sherrill, in his testimony the same day, he said it would take eight, ten or fifteen years to make the Anacostia River wholesomely available. Let's quote him to be sure:— "The Secretary of War then came to the conclusion that until Columbia Island is finished, and the Arlington bridge is finished and the Anacostia sewerage system is completed, so we could put the two bathing beaches on the edge of the District, perhaps eight or ten years, that the proper thing to do was to give a beach to the colored people of equal facility to the beach the white people have. He asked me about it and I agreed with him." "Senator Spencer. That is west of the monument?" "Colonel Sherrill. Yes sir; west of the Paul Jones monument. That is put there with the full expectation on the part of all concerned that within eight, ten, or fifteen years, whatever time will be required to develop the places I spoke of, the beaches will be able to be taken out and put in outlying places. There is no other place in the District where the bathing question can be handled so satisfactorily." While Col. Sherrill speaks of placing a "colored beach" somewhere else (Continued on page 3) LOCALS AND SOCIETY P444-2009 Mrs. Marian Butler Society Editor Dr. and Mrs. A. I.

A resolution demanding the Board of Trustees to discontinue the use of the term "Alumni" in designating an officer of the administration as "Alumni and Field Secretary." The point was raised that the use of the term "Alumni" as employed is misleading and is unfair to the alumni. This demand on the Trustees has been repeatedly made by the association. 2nd. Another Resolution demanded the Trustees to discontinue the use of the term "Alumnus" on the administration publication—"The Howard Alumnus." 3rd. A Resolution seeking to change the method of conducting the ballot for Alumni Trustees. The point was made, as now conducted, the control of the election machinery is in the hands of the administration. The Alumni seeks to control their own elections. 4th. A Resolution for the Alumni to take no part in the Commencement exercises. This resolution action was based on the reports of committees which had investigated complaints and reports of mal administration by the authorities at Howard. This action was taken too late to spread the information. Even president Miller who had left the meeting in charge of another officer did not get this information in time to comply. 5th. A Resolution demanding the Trustees to request the resignation of Dr. Durkee as president of Howard University. This resolution was offered by Atty. Thomas B. Dyett of New York. Atty. Dyett was the man responsible for the action of the Howard Club of New York when endorsed Dr. Durkee and his administration in January, 1924. Citizens Aroused Over Bathing Beach Citizens Aroused Over Bathing Beach (Continued from page 1) now, he favors reopening the public beach already in the Tidal Basin and stick up a sign, "For Whites Only." The beach in the Tidal Basin is in no way a beach for whites only. The organic act creating this beach stated: "The Chief of Engineers of the United States Army is authorized and directed to establish and maintain at a suitable place upon the shore of the Tidal Basin, in Potomac Park, a PUBLIC bathhouse, with the necessary equipment, with a sloping sandy beach in the Tidal Basin and to install a proper equipment to purify the water entering the basin so that it will not endanger the health of bathing in it. The direction and control of said PUBLIC bathing facilities shall be vested in the Chief of Engineers of the United States Army." This quotation is from Public Document No. 21 of the 65th Congress. This is the law creating the public beach in the basin and making the first appropriation of $25,000 for it. The law does not state that this beach is for whites or colored, but is for the "public." The only thing that could prevent Negroes from using it is for them to be declared not a part of the public. As long as they are a part of the public, they have every right to use the present facilities. The rasno no Negroes have used the beach lately is because they have not insisted on exercising their legal rights. The bathing beach in the Tidal Basin is just as much a public place as is Rock Creek Park, the Zoo, the Library or any other public park or building. There is no segregation at these places, and so far as the LAW is concerned, there is none at Tidal Basin. This same condition holds true of the golf courses. Col. Sherrill has no right to make any separation, therefore, these courses are just as much for the use of Negroes as they are for whites. The timidity on the part of Negroes to exercise their rights as citizens is the only reason they do not use any of these golf greens, indiscriminately. It was the unanimous sentiment of LET US HELP YOU Federal Finance Corporation, Inc. If You need MONEY—If You want your HOUSE or Business Property remodeled—If you want your present trust renewed—If you want GILT-EDGE investments FEDERAL FINANCE CORPORATION Temporary Offices: 313 John Marshall Place;Phone, Franklin 970 Congress that if both groups did not use the beach this summer, then neither should. Senator Copeland of New York stated: "I would be very glad to have notice served on the Committee of the District of Columbia that it is the sentiment of Congress that the use of the Tidal Basin is an improper one." Senator Simmons of North Carolina stated: "I am opposed to the use of the Tidal Basin as a bathing beach for either the white people or the colored people." Rep. Madden of Illinois said: "The people of the District of Columbia will not be permitted to use the existing bathing beach in Tidal Basin this summer. . . I do not propose to be a party to allowing them to do what Congress says they can not do." Hundreds of telegrams and letters were sent to various members of Congress this week by Negroes protesting the re-opening of the beach, unless to be used by any and all of the citizens of the District of Columbia. Plans are now on foot for a delegation to call on President Coolidge, who is responsible for the government of the District of Columbia, and make a protest to him against the wilful attempt to force segregation on the colored people. GRADUATE CHIROPRACTORS The fifth annual graduation of The Central Chiropractic College, 1914 7th Street, Northwest, this city, will be held at the auditorium of the Dunbar High School on Saturday evening, June 13th. An elaborate program has been arranged. While this is one of the very latest therapeutic methods of eliminating disease, twenty-six states have regulated the science. It is to be remembered that had it not been for a colored man, Harvey Lillard, Esq., of Davenport, Iowa, chiropractic would not have been born, he having received the first chiropractic adjustment for deafness, and was cured September 17, 1895, by a layman, Daniel David Palmer of that city. This is another instance in the country, where a colored man figured to a great extent in our modern civilization. You Too Can Have Beauty "I was not always as attractive as I am now.

The score of the first game was 9 to 8. B. Jones opposed Williams on the mound at the outset, but Jones was relieved by Powell in the fifth inning.

Ted Thompson Meets Edgar Brown in Tennis Wilberforce, Ohio, June 1—When the tennis tournament set for June 22 and 23 at Wilberforce University under way it will find some of the classiest performers in the net game ruffing away in an effort to grab the honors. Practically all of the stars affiliated with the A. T. A. will be here for the meet and the competition will be even better than that of the nationals of last season. This statement is based on the belief that Edgar Brown, Ted TED THOMPSON Thompson and Dr. O. B. Williams will furnish a better fight than Tally Holmes and Thompson put up at the Baltimore meeting of last year. Besides these stars, Miss Channels of Chicago, Mrs. Seams, also of the Windy City, Miss Ballad of Philadelphia and several stars from the western territory will play in the tournament. The big battle of course settles around Ted Thompson, ranking player No. 2 of the last two years and Edgar Brown who until suspended a year ago was king of the net artists. These two should cause the fans to sit up and take notice. The meet is attracting fans from all over the country. The school will go into its period of summer vacation and all the students will remain over to see it done. There will plenty of accommodations for all the students' quarters will be turned over to the guests as Union League | | W | L | Pct. | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | LeDroit Tigers .....5 | 1 | .833 | | Virginia All-Stars .....4 | 1 | .800 | | Oriental Tigers .....4 | 2 | .667 | | Teddy Bears .....3 | 4 | .429 | | St. Cyprians .....1 | 3 | .250 | | Giants .....0 | 6 | .000 | RESULTS LeDroit Tigers 14; St. Cyprians 11 Virginia All-Stars 14; Giants 10 Virginia All-Stars 9; Giants 8 Teddy Bears 8; Oriental Tigers 9 SCHEDULE Sunday, June 14— LeDroit Tigers vs. Oriental Tigers So.

June 8—The Harrisburg Giants, led by Oscar Charleston, won a double-header yesterday afternoon from the Black Sox at the Maryland Baseball Park, 3 to 1 and 5 to 1. Superb pitching and timely hitting accounted for the two victories of the Harrisburg nine. Gisentanner hurled well for the visitors and was especially effective in checking Sox rallies. His double in the fifth inning resulted in the first score of the game. The Sox were not able to cross the plate until the ninth inning when they got the bases full but could only get across one tally. The second contest was featured by the hitting and fielding of Oscar Charleston. The Harrisburg manager got two singles and a double in three times, at bat, Prichard, on the mound for the visitors, held the Black Sox in check until the ninth inning. Again the Sox got the bags full, but only scored one run. Britt finished both games for the Sox. McClure started the first and Strong the second game. Ben Taylor, former manager of the Washington Potomacs, played first for the Harrisburg Giants and had a perfect day in the field, accepting a total of 14 chances in the two contests and getting 3 hits out of 2 times at bat.

We are sure you remember "Broadway After Dark," well this one we promise positively to be greater.

"HOW COME" SCORES AT HOWARD Minus its orchestra and stage crew, the musical comedy success, "How Come," opened a two weeks engagement at the Howard Theatre, Monday night. While there are no important changes from the original production, the cast, pretty costumes and beautiful settings entitle it to rank along with those shows that have been Broadway successes. The comedy, the singing and dancing are all excellent. The comedy is furnished principally by Eddie Hunter as Eastus Skunkton Lime, assistant treasurer of the Mobile Cotton Trust; George W. Cooper, as Rufus Wise, secretary of the same trust; Billy Higgins as Brother Hocks; Doe Doe Green as Deacon Long Tack, and Alberta Perkins as the wife of Ebenezer Green, president of the Mobile Cotton Trust. The chorus is exceptional in that it has pretty girls who can both sing and dance. The musical numbers by Alberta Perkins, Leroy Broomfield, Emma Jackson and Jessica Zack were especially pleasing. The hit is "Chicago Woddle." The Howard Theater is listed as a non-union theater. The show has its own orchestra and a stage crew of union men. Being composed of union men they cannot work in the Howard Theater until differences with the International Alliance of Stage Employees and the American Federation of Musicians are straightened out.

After battling in the terrific heat in a melee marred by too much clinching, the referee waved the hand of the Leiperville heavyweight as the symbol that he was the victor. Immediately after Old Black Lightning, as Godfrey is called, was victorious, his manager, James F. Dougherty, declared that he would issue a deft to any heavyweight in the world. He insisted that Dempsey had retired and that Godfrey was the real champion of fistiana. Dougherty also stated that when he returned East, within a day or two, he would post a forfeit with the Boxing Commission of Pennsylvania to back his challenge on the part of his Colored battler.

Sherrill, a North Carolinian, has set his heart and soul on making Washington, the Capital of a Great Republic, a city in which segregation, discrimination and their attendant evils may obtain without reservation; and "white supremacy" may reign unhampered. He gave Washington segregated baseball diamonds, tennis courts and golf links. He placed jim crow signs in Rock Creek Park for the Easter holidays in 1922. He considered Colored Washingtonians so unworthy, so debased, so inferior, that he could do no other than provide separate accommodation for them at the Lincoln Memorial Dedication, despite the fact that R. R. Moton appeared on the program. He has seized every opportunity which presented itself to give segregation a firm footing in the District of Columbia. He has called to his support such men as Representative William C. Lankford of Georgia to plead "for law enforcement and race segregation" that Washington may be made a "city beautiful" and a city "decent." Segregated parks have been a thing that Sherrill has long wished for in Washington. Whenever there has occurred an opportunity to impress the necessity of this upon the District authorities, he has not failed to avail himself of it. When the District Commissioners went on record, Tuesday last, as being in favor of providing immediate bathing facilities for citizens of the District, Sherrill seized it as a loop-hole through which he might bring his pet—segregated parks—into Washington, saying that "the best place for the colored beach is undoubtedly at Jones Point, where a considerable tract of land could be acquired at low figures and an ideal park could be created not only for bathing, but for various other recreational activities for the colored people." First of all, we protest against anything and everything which bears the color of segregation. We have fought and will continue to fight jim crowed parks and beaches. We will continue our fight against a segregated beach on the ground that such a condition has no place in a democratic nation, and realizing this, the organic law provides for bathing facilities in the Tidal Basin without mention of color or race. And secondly, because at Jones Point—designated on the map of the District of Columbia as Buzzard Point—the water as well as the surroundings generally are extremely unsanitary. Buzzard Point was formerly a dumping ground for the refuse of the city. It is located on the Anacostia River just below the sewage pumping station, where the sewage of all South Washington is discharged into the river. Moreover it is in direct line of the down river flow of the waste and everything else which might come into the river from the Navy Yard and the gas plant, located a little way above it. To make this a sanitary place for bathing would necessitate the removal of these disease dumping points or the shunting of the flow—a method too costly to consider. Chlorination would not do, for it would require chlorine in such an amount as to be injurious to bathers. It is about four miles from the bulk of the Negro population and at least three-quarter miles from the nearest car or bus line. There should be no more segregation in bathing facilities than there is in public parks and libraries. Both come under the same Department of Government, a department which does not give Sherrill the right, by law or otherwise, to "force" jim crow conditions upon Washington's Colored population. He is an paipoitee of the President of the United States and, therefore, is expected to reflect the views of the Head of the Nation. If President Coolidge does not believe that segregation is best for Washington, he should dispose of Colonel C. O. Sherrill's services on the ground that the latter's policy is a gross insult to one-fourth of Washington's population. COAL WOOD High Grade Coal at the lowest possible price BOYD FUEL and FEED CO.

Out of all the people who visited "The superb Summer Colony on the Patuxent River," but one hour's motor ride from the heat, dust and noise of the city, more than 82 per cent bought lots in the colony. The occasion was like a family picnic. Everybody seemed to know everybody else and the proud owners of Eagle Harbor land brought down their friends who purchased adjoining lots where possible. Already the earliest purchases have been offered an increase price for their lots by later visitors. There are building sites available for eight hundred families, and the rate at which lots are selling, indicates the completion of the colony before the passing of many weeks. Visitors of Eagle Harbor have enjoyed picnics on the beach in the shade of its many trees. Children have enjoyed paddling in the water along the greatly sloping tide line. Young people have found bathing and swimming in the salt water of the Patuxent very pleasureable, and the older folks have found the shade, the refreshing, constant breeze and the beautiful view of the wide stretch of land and water, all very satisfying and exhilarating. Parties motor down to Eagle Harbor daily, and Sundays are the occasions for record-breaking crowds of refined people. Individuals have found the ride by motor bus to be well worth the cost in time. Reservations for transportation by the bus are very carefully and cheerfully made by calling Eagle Harbor Office, North 10402 BEAUTY SCHOOL HOLDS COMMENCEMENT The Mme. W. R.

PARKER The Thrills of Uncertainty, or the Curses of Man Addressed Especially to my Howard Colleagues (Continued from last week) But this is a general view of the subject. Let us note a few of the thrills and curses by which you are liable to be beset. The unjust, unlawful practice of yielding to the thrill of uncertainty—gambling—gives no lasting satisfaction when you reflect, nor profits either mind or body. It is an opponent to industry; for, those who occasionally win sums of money by the turn of a card, or the throw of the dice, or the "placing" of the "kings of the turf," soon acquire a distate for the slower routine of acquiring property by an industrious occupation. It begets in them the feverish desire to be a Ponzi, who spurned a more tardy, yet surer process. Such practice is ruinous in all its tendencies and consequences. It ruins your character. He who yields is despised by the virtuous and enlightened, and suspected even by his associates. It ruins your morals. It tends to blunt the sensibilities as to those nice distinctions of right and wrong so necessary to preserve the purity of your morals. He who yields soon loses all regard for truth, honesty, and candor, and is compelled to resort to falsehood and deception to obtain his object. It is the fruitful source of every conceivable vice and crime. Its natural fruit is theft, robbery, murder, suicide, forgery, perjury, intemperance, and every species of licentiousness and sin. The thrills of uncertainty are ruinous to property. How many are reduced by these thrills from affluence to poverty; how many throw away in a single night the earnings of years of industry! He who yields to these thrills can make no safe calculations as to property. He may possess a fortune this year, and the next be clothed in the beggar's rags. Far more numerous are the chances that the latter will be his condition. Where one ends his life in affluence, ten thousand others die in poverty. The god of intemperance is another monster which assails you. His fatal effects are written out in pictures horridly true and vivid in every town and hamlet. Lost fortunes, blasted anticipations, ruined health, disgrace, hunger, want and suffering, are the prolific results of this prowling monster. Have you any desire to be involved in these miserable circumstances? Do you desire degradation and want? I need not wait your answer, for I anticipate your reply, in honor and sincerity, to be, "No! most assuredly, no." How do you expect to avoid them? By following in precisely the same path that involved others in their toils? by imitating that sot, who in youth drank whenever occasion offered? Your good sense dictates the danger of such a course. There is one and only one infallible rule, by following which every one of you may be certain of avoiding the monster intemperance, and the long catalogue of evils that he invariably causes. If you observe this rule, you will avoid, as far as possible, the haunts of intemperance and the company of habitual drinkers of intoxicating liquor, lest you become ensnared by their evil example. Give no countenance to the custom of partaking of intoxicating drinks even moderately; but bring both your example and influence to bear against a practice so fraught with evil.

A. under the direction of Miss Mary L. Europe. The first call made resulted in an attendance of forty-odd singers and each week the group is augmented by interested newcomers. Miss Europe in this effort is doing something of civic interest that should meet with large and appreciative support, as she plans to re-establish in public favor the 'Hiawatha Choral Society.' Miss Europe possibly will meet with marked success in this effort as none dare question her ability and mature leadership in music matters as is generally the case with most music ventures. Lack of confidence causes the majority of failures we surmise. All good singers are urged to join at once. This group assisted in a dramatic presentation "The Song of Hiawatha" with groups from all grades normal and high school and some teachers participating, last Monday and Tuesday at Dunbar auditorium Nathaniel Guy managing director.

Cassiopeia~and Her Daughter Gephus was the king of Aethiopia and Cassiopeia was his queen, Cassiopeia was vain and boasted of Wer beauty and compared it with hat of the Sea-Nymphs. Although che was:very beautiful she should not eve been so vain. ‘The Sea-Nymphs ere-so displeased with her that they cused, through the gods, Cassiopeia’s ‘aughter to be chained to @ rock neat the Sea. ‘The Sea-Nymphs then sent sea-monster to attack her, While she was tied to the rock, Perseus, the sen of Jupiter, fought the serpent and rescued the princess. Cephus and Cassiopeia then gave their daughter to Perseus in marriage. After the death of the queen she was placed among the stars which to this day bear her name. The Sea- Nymphs had her placed in the sky near the pole, where every night she is half the time held with her head downward as a lesson in humility. Even this was an honor and she is veferred to as “the starred Aethiop queen.” Memnon was an Aethiopian prince, ‘he son of Aurora and Tithonus. He went to Troy to assist King Priam to resist the Greeks after be- coming the king of Aethiopia. He was slain in battle by Achilles, and Aurora who witnessed the death of her oa, from her home in the sky, di- ected his brothers, the Winds, to carry his body and bury it in a tomb on the banks of the stream in the grove of the Nymphs.

One does not have to. have a certain color of skin nor certain people as parents to lweach the heights of success. Race nor inheritance will not lift you above your own true struggles. You must set a mark to hit inthe affairs of life and strive exrnestly onward in a manly way to strike its center—an absolute success. ‘There was once a ragged, unlettered boy of our race who trudged many miles and appealed to Hampton Insti- tute for a chance to learn. This hoy was Booker T. Washington. ‘There was another boy who used to listen to the conversation of others an who gathered papers out of the gutters and learned to read before he entered a small school, He was Rich- avd Banneker.

They had less of everything than the youngest or the poorest of our read- ers, They were born in bondage with no legal rgiht to an education.

They have evil among them even in the pro- |portions we have. They have kings land presidenta, oo ‘baw wwe. ‘They have poets, authors, musicians, seulp- Pm artists and so have we. It is for you, children, to learn of [what the race has done in the nature of big things and so prepare your- ‘selves to be champions in the defense ‘of your people. _ Do not stop at learning what other ‘men have done, but you should forge thes and allow yourself to equal or surpass those accomplishments which men fought for and won, although having less advantages than you now ee LISTEN, AMERICA Though-my skin is black, 0, America, I am thy child.

YOUNG MUSICIANS There isa lack of interest taken by our’boys and girls todearn music. We are proud to note those who are interested but they are such a small minority. Music should be studied for two reasons. It is a source of enjoyment and a source of revenue. To play or sing well are attributes showing high tendencies, diligence and persever- ance. ‘The study of music is like any- thing else, if imagined to be hard, it is then made harder. A noted German musician was once asked why the children of the little villages of Germany were so musical He replied, “Because they make fun of music.” This is true. The child- ren of Germany have very simple amusements. Although Germany is the land of toys, the little folks are not laden down with extravagant presents. Some German boys amuse themselves more with a little viotin than some of our beys cam with a $75.00 electric toy railroad. 1 wish that all who read this arti- cle would try at the next practice hour to get just as much pleasure as-pos- sible out of their playing. ‘Treat it Just exactly as you would a game. You may learn a great deal from the children of Germany, SPEND A NIGHT AT HOME WITH MOTHER (Tq the older boys) Alone she gazes into a vacant chair Wondering and dreaming and yeara- ing 3 For a form she longs to seo there, Go cheer her up with a toast or a song, Make the sad soul happy once more; For a night at home with mother dear Will cheer her heart so tired and sore. ‘Tell her those tales of dear yester- days; Tell how you honor her earnest prayers; Pour out your heart in a manly way, And tell her of all your cares. There's nothing on the seas, In the ground, nor above, That can extinguish or smolder A mother's pure love. = —=C. L. F. ASPIRATIONS Aspirations means to have an ar- dent (eager) wish, You have often heard the expres- sion “He has a white man’s aspira- itons,” A white man’s aspirations, What are they? Many white men do not aspire or hope for the best things. So aspirations of a high standard are not white men’s alone but are every- body's. ‘That means every little col- ored gril and boy can have aspira- tions of her or his own, ‘They car select from great men of our own race such as Tanner, Burleigh, Miller, Douglass, Dunbar, Fortune, Aldridge, and many others. Had these men white men's aspirations, black men’s aspirations, or men’s aspirations? Aspire because it is yours to as- pire. Aspire to those things that are cleanest, noblest, and biggest and whatever may be the assertions of others, know that your aspirations ‘were the aspirations of man given to all mankind as a gift from Ged in ~ likeness we were created, FLOATING STONES: North of San Francisco, in Califor- nia, is a small bluff of rocks on the shore of Clear Lake. There one may pick up pieces of stones as large as one’s head and throw them into the water and they wil] not sink. They g0 floating away bobbing to and fro just as corks would float. Perhaps in years long ago the Indians used them lashed together with thongs of bark and floated from shore to shore upon them. Now, what kind of stone can that be, you ask? Well, it is called pu- mice-stone. It is full of holes and spaces just as you see in sponges, and the air which it contains causes it =e Bist it can fest oes tbe ht that 3 Slow. en “The Howard Medical News” e Howard Medical News” wa: icle Volume J, No, 1, which may icles by me of our reading men ics are‘ aslepbie and’ mab result of research work especially un- dertaken for the paper. Among them | re KELLY MILLER, Jr. Editor and Business Manager of “The Howard Medical News” may. be mentioned: “Spinal Anesthe- sia,” Dr. S. M. Carson, surgeon-in- chief and owner of the Carson's Pri- vate Hospital; “Differential Diagnosis in Facial Paratyses and the Mechan- ism,” by Dr, Charles I. West, asso- cinte professor of Anatomy; and “The Composition of Some Food Products,” by Dr. H. C. Scurlock, Professor of Bio-Chemistry and Physiology. As far as can be ascertained, the Howard Medical News is the only undergraduate journal published in any of the “A” class medica! schools. Further, it is the first publication to publish eross-word medical puzzles. This represents something new in the profession and is a stimulus, keeo- ing the mind keen and alert on exact and curious medical knowledge, “The Journal of the National Med- ical Association,” in a recent editorial commented favorably upon the paper and wished it every success possible, The press in general has given the paper the most favorable criticism. It may be mentioned that the “Jour- nal of the National Medical Associa- tian” and “The Howard Medical News” ave the only two publications among our group which are devoted to. the publication of the scientific and tech- nieal side, as well as to general in- formation of the profession, Through the cooperation and ¥upport of the alumni the paper has appeared at regular intervals instead of “Now and Then,” as at first announced. There are eight issues of volame I, with a total of over 15,000 copier. This last issue is a special one de- voted to the graduating classes of the school of medicine, which befits the close of this, the first volume of Howard’s Medical School's own pub- lication. ‘The May 20th issue of The Howard Medical News was intended primarily for High School students who are con- templating the study of medicine, den- tistry, or pharmacy.

The chairman of both commissions was Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, educational director of the Phelps-Stokes Fund which was founded in 1908 to promote education jin the South and in Africa. In the African studies the American and British governments and the miss- ionary societies of Great Britain and North America cooperated by lending experts to serve on the commissions, and’ the British government tendered ‘Dr. Jones an official dinner at Lan- caster House, London, on his way back from Africa. Dr. Jones, who writes the report, ‘calls for the inclusion of the native ‘in a plan of cooperation which will include governmental officials, mis- sionaries, settlers and traders. He looks to the European nations, which control all of Africa, except Liberia on the West Coast and Abyssinia in the east, to take the leadership in working out a definite plan and not leave it to the individual and unco- ordinated efforts of the governors of the various colonies. | Richly endowed by nature, Africa has been losing ground in the man- power essential for unlocking this great physical wealth, says the re- port, The heritage of the slave raids, the ravages of disease and an ignor- ance which permits malnutrition in a land of plenty are all given as causes for the sparse population.
