AN INTERESTING CAREER CLOSED WHEN ISAAC EIGHME DIED FRIDAY WAS WAR VETERAN AND LOVER OF HORSES Isaac George Eighme, aged 52, died at his home Friday, April 9, and was buried Tuesday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock from Union Wesley Church. He was buried with others of our heroic dead in the Arlington National Cemetery. Mr. Eighme was born in 1874 at Media, Pa., and was the son of Starlin and Elizabeth Eighme. In 1906, prompted by his love for horses, he joined the 10th United States Cavalry, reporting to the regiment at Fort Carter, Montana, where he was placed in Company E. At the beginning of the Spanish American War, he went with his regiment to Chicamagua Park and thence to Cuba where he participated in the entire campaign. He took part in the famed Fourth of July engagement at San Juan. His enlistment expired while he was in Porto Rico and he returned to civil life obtaining employment always with horses until the automobile displaced the four-footed domino in public favor. He then took up the automobile and continued at such work until his illness which began two years ago. His last employment was with a member of the cabinet. He is survived by his wife, Corinne, and three children, James W., Clementine and Isaac G., Jr., his brother John W. of this city, and sister, Mrs. John W. Nicholson of Jersey City, N. J., also survive him together with a number of other relatives and a host of friends. Many comrades in arms recall with a pang the passing of a good soldier and a fine companion.

NEGRO TO REMAIN HEAD OF VET. HOSPITAL NEGRO TO REMAIN HEAD OF VET. HOSPITAL General Frank T. Hines, director of the Veterans Bureau, in a statement Monday, denied that there would be any change in the policy of operating the United States Hospital for disabled Negro veterans at Tuskegee, Alabama. It had been charged that certain officials in the Veterans Bureau were in a conspiracy to discredit the administration of this hospital by an all-colored personnel. General Hines declared that such a charge is not substantiated as the Bureau fully intends to continue its present policy with regard to the administration of that hospital for and by those of the colored race." A decision in the case of W. L. Jones, chief engineer, who was suspended October 12, 1925, is expected this week. Mr. Jones was asked to tender his resignation in February, but declined to do so on the ground that it would be an admission on his part that he had conspired to bring about the removal of Major J. H. Ward, the commanding officer, against whom he had previously made charges. The case was later reopened and Mr. Jones restored to duty January 1, last. A decision is also expected in the case of Dr. J. D. Nelson, against whom Dr. Ward preferred charges of insubordination. "NO SEGREGATION, OR NO LICENSE", SAYS MAYOR Acting upon complaints against the Lasky-Players motion picture theatre and the Albee motion picture theatre in Boston and Cambridge, respectively, Massachusetts mayors have emphatically declared against segregation.

The complainants were the Misses Georgie Harris, Miss Yvonne Gorden in Boston, and Allen Sanders in a Cambridge case. Chandler Owen, managing editor of the Chicago Bee, co-editor with A. Phillips Randolph of the Messenger Magazine and a platform speaker who during the war attracted considerable attention from government officials for the cander with which he gave his views upon the rights of the Negro, has been visiting in Washington this week.

This program will be carried into the senior and junior high schools through the science department under the direction of Professor Weatherless and into the normal and elementary schools through the nature study department under the direction of P. T. Rayford. The idea of devoting seven days in the year to forestry education originated on the Pacific coast in 1920. President Harding in 1922 and 1923 issued presidential proclamations which brought the Federal Government behind the idea. President Coolidge in turn gave the plan his sanction and issued presidential proclamations for 1924, 1925 and again this year. DR. A. M. CURTIS, HONOR GUEST AT BANQUETS DR. A. M.

Holmes of 1615 New Jersey Avenue, was operated upon on Wednesday morning by Dr. A. M. Curtis for a fractured skull that resulted from a fall from the back porch at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Theresa Jones, 1611 New Jersey Avenue, just two doors remover from her home. Mrs. Holmes who has been employed at the Weather Bureau for the past seventeen years, stopped en route from work on Wednesday morning and took breakfast with the daughter, as is often done in order to visit a bit with her grandchildren. After partaking of breakfast, she volunteered to help with some home laundry work for the household and while hanningg clothes on the back porch she leaned heavily against a railing which gave way under the weight imposed. Mrs. Holmes fell about seven feet to the paved areaway beneath and was unconscious when picked up and rushed to Freedmen's Hospital. She is the mother of three daughters other than Mrs. Jones and has four grandchildren. She is a member of Ebenezer Methodist church, and is highly regarded in the community. Phi Beta Sigma Starts Bigger and Better Business Week The first meeting in connection with the work they have set out to do takes place at Asbury M. E. Church on Sunday afternoon, April 18. A good live program is promised. In concurrence with the national movement of the Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, for Bigger and Better Business, the Alpha Chapter begins preparations, for the campaign here in Washington. The young men seem to be earnestly interested in the project and have been conducting a serious investigation into all phases of business. Realizing the fact that the success of the country and of the world at lrage, depends to a large extent upon the degree of thoroughness with which business is organized and transacted, this movement is designed to contribute towards that success by placnig special emphasis upon the need for bigger and better business. Happyland Bathing Beach Construction Going Ahead Rapidly Happyland Bathing Beach Construction Going Ahead Rapidly The construction work on the commercial bathing pool that is being billed as Happyland is going forward at the Georgia Avenue site just above the baseball grounds under the supervision of H. E. Halle, general manager of the company. Mr. Halle is supervising this and a similar project at Chevy Chase. A steam shovel has been at work for two weeks; and the excavation for the 150-foot pool that will vary from three to ten feet in depth is about completed. Drew and company have a large force of concrete workers following closely the shovel crew and the rapid work is attracting interested crowds daily. When completed, Lynch Brothers' engineering equipment will be installed and a sand beach constructed together with the essential annex, bath houses, and booths. The whole enterprise is to be ready for public use on Memorial Day. TRUSTEES BID $99,000 TO RETAIN U STREET PROPERTY ORDERED SOLD TRUSTEES BID TO RETAIN PROPERTY Doctor Improving DR. ARTHUR B.

JERNAGIN TO BE UNVEILED The executive committee of the National Race Congress will unveil a life-size bust of its president, the Rev. Dr. W. H. Jernagin, here at the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, 3rd and I Streets, Northwest, Thursday, April 29 at 8 o'clock, p.m. The bust is the work of a colored French sculptor of Hayti, Normil Charles, who won first prize in an exhibition at Paris in competition with over two thousand other sculptors from all over the world. Mr. Charles taught five years in a Paris academy. It is singular to note that the white sculptor now making a bust of President and Mrs. Coolidge was Mr. Charles' student only two years ago. The selection of Dr. Jernagin was in consonance with the desire of the sculptor that some outstanding man of color should be the subject of his first work of art in this country. A full program is in the making, upon which will appear some of the leading speakers and singers available. It probably will represent one of the most unique affairs ever held in this country by our group. It certainly will represent the first bust ever presented to any living man of color by a world renowned sculptor. Dr. Jernagin's bust will be sent later to Philadelphia, where it will be placed on exhibition during the sesquicentennial. DR. BARTSCH SPEAKS TO CARIBBEAN CLUB DR.

Lautier The unfinished Masonic structure at Tenth and U Streets, Northwest, was sold at public auction Monday afternoon to the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons for the District of Columbia. The successful bid for this property was the sum of $99,000. It was made by Drs. S. S. Thompson and W. H. Jackson acting for the Masonic Grand Lodge. It was $1,000 more than the sum offered by Harry Wardman of the Wardman Construction Company, who is said to have been bidding for the National Geographic Society, which contemplated completing the building and exchanging that property for the property owned by the Odd Fellows on M Street between Sixteenth and Seventeenth Streets, Northwest. The sale was scheduled to take place at 2:30 in the afternoon. Interested members of the Order and a public curious to witness the outcome of the sale assembled long before the hour set. At one o'clock, Captain Doyle of the Eighth precinct station house sent a detail of policemen to the scene to protect the crowd from possible traffic accidents, because the crowd increased so that U Street and Tenth Street were blocked. A while later, he appeared in person. When the auctioneer's opening cry was made more than three thousand people were within hearing distance of the auction block. Bidding started at $50,000, and thirty-seven bids were made before the Harry Wardman group dropped out and W. H. Jackson made the final bid of $99,000. With its acceptance, the crowd of Masons assembled, took Jackson upon their shoulders and the group set up a loud cheering. Ford Weeps Grandmaster Ford was offered congratulations by many of his craftsmen and women; and one woman presented him with a bouquet whereupon he was noticed to weep with apparent joy at the development of the day. The crowd was an entirely orderly one, and many among them were visibly-affected by the prospect of losing the property to a biddder other than of the fraternity. A deposit of $2,500 cash was made at the time of the sale. The Masonic Grand Lodge has thirty days in which MARRIED ON MIDCITY STAGE A midnight performance of the Sammy Lewis "Bamville Dandies" company at the Mid-City Theater on Wednesday night was closed with a genuine wedding conducted with ceremonies by Rev.

ATTACKS EIGHTEEN YEAR OLD COLORED GIRL ATTACKS EIGHTEEN YEAR OLD COLORED GIRL Detroit, Michigan, April 15—(By The Associated Negro Press) A colored girl, working for a laundry owned and operated by a Mr. Burnstein on Hastings street, was attacked by the proprietor last Saturday evening.

One day they saw a man who was crippled so they began to make fun of him. The grippled man became angry and the two men ran away. They ran and both of them fell into a hole and broke their legs. Now they know what it means to be crippled so they do not make fun and laugh at people any more. FROM THE SOUTHLAND Tampa, Fla.

She is authority for the information that fourteen states have already placed the business under control with more or less drastic laws with regulations that, while operating to stabilize the beauty culture business, will during the transition period work a hardship to our women so engaged unless they keep themselves fully informed as to these innovations, and prepare to conform to them. Some states have passed laws requiring and eight-grade education as a basis for the granting a license to persons to practice; and yet others have required a two-year high school course. New York and Pennsylvania both are conducting hearings before the legislatures of the respective states upon bills that will make it mandatory upon those in the profession to be adequately equipped both as to basic education and professional training. In order to protect the interest of its large agency organization, the Mme. Walker Company is exercising what influence is possible to have these laws drawn as leniently as is possible without reducing the standard of the business; and on the other hand, its officers and traveling representatives are conducting a nation-wide system of education so that the agents may all be prepared for the requirements of the communities in which they happen to be located. Mrs. Joyner is watching the threatened introduction of a bill in Congress while she is also handling the contest campaign the concern is conducting. A world tour is the prize for the winning ministers of the contest. Rev. W. H. Jernagin is one of the prominent contestants. Mrs. Joyner is a very young woman of quiet demeanor that belies the business resource that is indicated by a chin of the piquant through aggressive type. She is a Chicago woman though a native of Virginia, and this is her second trip to Washington. She is a product of Sheele High School and of the Chicago Musical College. Prior to entering the beauty culture business she was an instructor at the Natinoal University of Music on the staff of the dramatic department, during which time she attended the Moler Beauty College and Wenzells French school. Her finishing work was at Heaths Cultural Review School. Altogether she is well equipped for the work of caring for the educatorina program of her institution. It is a policy of the company that a large percentage of its proceeds shall be devoted to Negro education and charities. Mrs. Joyner's work is part of that larger program. Libery Life Moves Forward Housefield Elected to Presidency Chicago, Ill., April 12—That the Liberty Life Insurance Company, with headquarters in Chicago, is making rapid progress, was bought out at the recent meeting of the stockholders and directors of the company, at which time Dr. M. O. Bousefield was elected president.

PEETTING A PREMIUM ON JAMES CROW "Rarin' To Go," a colored attraction that played the opening date at the Gayety Theatre this season is back doing a return engagement this week. It is a corking good show, as have been all of the Negro or half Negro shows presented on the Columbin circuit this season. Negroes have flocked to the house during these engagements and the house records show that the weeks that Negro attractions were played have been the most profitable weeks of the season. Of course, a management capable of making use of the "jim crow" policy to salvage itself from imminent bankruptcy, is capable of playing the policy to the limit. The Gayety management is no exception to the rule. Here is what the Negro sucker public falls for in addition to the humiliation their weak mentality permits them to accept, when they go into the alley and up the fire escape to see a show—and thousands do that every week. The regular gallery price is forty cents; when Colored shows play the house, this is boosted to fifty cents. No change in prices down stairs. Matinee prices are forty cents in the "Jim crow" gallery to men or women; while down stairs, in orchestra or balcony, women are admitted at twenty-five cents for any seat. Occasionally a colored woman "kicks" and is given a fifteen-cent rebate. Just how a woman with sense enough for that, can be so lacking in self-respect as to be in that gallery at all, is hard to realize, yet such is the case. From dependable sources, we are informed that the crowd which buys out that gallery long before the time for the performance is not composed wholly of our so-called "common crowd." If you doubt that fact, just almost any one of the "highbrow" or "dicty, men-about-town" how he liked the show, and the answer will verify his having there. and Negroes withheld support of "Jim crow" theatre during the inter just closing, every one of the shows that drew their patronage would have played a theatre in this district to which Negroes would be welcome with uniform courtesy. So long as Negroes accept avidly this sort of treatment, just so long will they receive it; and just so long will there be neither cultural advancement or adequate social and amusement facilities provided for them to attend with self-respect. WE ARE NOT PAN-AMERICANS The Pan-American Union has successfully promoted a visit of South American and Central American journalists to the Nation's capital where they were the guests of the press of this country, and after a week of glad-handing, the visitors will be shown over the country before returning to their respective homes. Notwithstanding the fact that the country has some half thousand Negro publications which reflect the thoughts and give the record of about fifteen millions of its citizens, no part of the plan of the Pan-American Union contemplated providing the visitors with a knowledge of this part of the country's population. The presence of the Negro in American life is always ignored when international relations are involved. There are as many Negro publications in Washington as there are white ones, and every one of them is known to the government and quasi-government institutions and officials. No doubt the index is carefully marked so as to prevent their being included in any movement that would enable the Negro viewpoint to reach the world at large, or to create a channel through which the other countries might learn the correct story of the Negro in the United States—his qualifications, his ambitions, his restrictions, his accommodations in the face of the heavy incaps under which he runs the However, when the Congress of the United States of America makes appropriations for the maintenance of the Union and to pay for the entertainment of its guests, Negro taxes are dug into as deeply as are those of other citizens.

AMONG the advocates appearing before the Senate committee conducting hearings on the wet and dry subject, advocating a continuance of the Volstead law, was Mrs. Maire-Marshall, vice-president of the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs. She introduced herself, so the daily papers said, as representing fifteen millions of Negroes of the country, and made a very favorable impression. She said in part: "We stand absolutely for the enforcement of the eighteenth amendment," she said. "Men, when they can't buy liquor, buy clothes and medicine for the children. We don't want liquor back. It is a Christian duty to support prohibition. We stand against light wines and beer. I plead for 15,000,000 Negroes in this country." There is much logic in what she said, even though doubt prevails as to the authenticity of the credentials she is said to have claimed. Considerable of those fifteen million do not even know that the women's organization exists, nor have many of them accorded her verbally, by implication, or otherwise, the right to speak for them. Taking no sides in the matter, it may be stated that even among those who happen to know Mrs. Marshall and respect her sincerity of purpose, there are those who differ with her on this issue. Too many persons assert that they represent all of us when they find opportunity to make a public appearance. Too few realize that they defeat their own ambitions by such all-embracing claims that can but sound preposterous to those whom they would impress. NEGROES OF ILLINOIS HAVE SPOKEN Senator McKinley of Illinois sustained defeat in the Illinois primaries last Tuesday; and that defeat conveys to the administration a very emphatic warning as to the sentiments of a group of voters whose attitude has long been misinterpreted and disregarded. The powerful influence of the administration was behind the Senator whom Mr. Smith defeated for his place. Negro votes contributed heavily to the votes that swamped the Senator and his administrative backing. Those Illinois Negroes want executive consideration, not platitudes handed out by the paid "hustlerati." They have tired of those specious promises relayed through sycophantic pencil pushers. The Negroes of America are finally placing blame where it belongs, upon the Republican party and its spokesmen. No longer are they swallowing the excuse that bad bold Southern Democrats are responsible for the delay and defeat of many pieces of legislation of vital interest to the Race. A notable example of this is the way the Coolidge leaders have handled the confirmation of Attorney James A. Cobb for a place on the municipal court. Senator Pat. Harrison (Dem.) of Mississippi asked for a reconsideration after Attorney Cobb had been confirmed. Since Senator Harrison's request was granted, the Republican leaders have done practically nothing to relieve the very embarrassing position in which the Race in general, and Attorney Cobb in particular, have been placed. Too often have colored citizens seen the effectiveness of the party whip cracked in the interest of any matter in which the administration was genuinely interested; and too seldom have they heard it crack in their interest. While Illinois is the first, it will not be alone in recording the mind of the Negro and an administration that has too long been indifferent to the Race. There are some advantages in a Negro publication having a title that does not reveal its special field of operations. One of these is the revealing information that comes at times from those who send out releases, from letters, and from propaganda-spreading organizations and prejudiced individuals, whose communications were not intended for the eyes of the Negro. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE · FRIDAY, APRIL 16, 1926 Church and Sunday School LIVINGSTONE GETS NEW RATING of 1926 and versity aut voted to ta their Alma sent this in assets to the commencem epoch in the end, showing AT Lincoln Congregational Temple Sunday morning Rev. R. W. Brooks will speak from the subject, "Spiritual Wrestling." There are a very few of us who would be considered good wrestlers physically. It not only requires great strength but great skill as well to be a good wrestler; so few of us enter this field of endeavor. All of us have to wrestle spiritually whether we desire it or not. And there is always an opponent who is seeking to take advantage of us. This opponent is ourselves. How can we master him? Can we always be sure of victory? You are at liberty to share this discussion with us. There will be special music by the choir. The Christian Endeavor society will meet at 6:45 p.m. ARMSTRONG STUDENT ACQUIRING FAME AS "BOY PREACHER" "Reverend" James W. Parrish, a student at Armstrong High School, has made a fine reputation for himself as a "boy preacher" according to a communication from Rev. L. C. Scott, D.D., of Tabernacle Baptist Church at Atlantic City who states that "this eighteen-year-old boy has been a wonder to me and my congregation. He has been here in service for ten days and has been a great drawing card. He has really stirred my people. He deserves favorable comment for his oratorical ability."

Trustees Bid $99,000 to Retain Property Trustees Bid $99,000 to Retain Property (Continued from page 1) to raise and pay the sum of $830,500 representing one-third of the purchase price. The balance of the purchase price is to be represented by two promissory notes secured by a first deed of trust, payable in one and two years, with interest at 6 per cent a year from the date of sale. This property was sold at public auction under an order of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia signed by Justice William Hitz, March 2, last. Attorneys Alexander Wolf and William L. Houston, opposing counsel in the litigation involving this property, were appointed trustees to make the sale. Herbert L Davis, court auditor, who was appointed special master to hear and determine all questions involved, war directed by the court order to state the account of the trustees and make disbursements of the proceeds of the sale to the persons entitled after the sale is confirmed by the court. There are two liens against the property, which are to be paid out of the proceeds of the sale. One is held by the Onandaga Litholite Company for $9,500, for stone masonry, and the other by Charles H. Green for $10,300 for brick masonry. Other debts include three judgments, one by the Second National Bank for $275 and two by Prince Hall Chapter No. 5, Order of the Eastern Star for a total of $1,500. Taxes for 1924, $157.56, and for $1925, $184.04, are unpaid and are to be adjusted as of the date of settlement. Work Delayed The sum of $134,944 has been expended on the construction of the unfinished building. This property was purchased at public auction in April, 1919, at a cost of $29,650. It has since enhanced in value. Estimates of cost for the completion of structure run from $175,000 to $350,000. It is designed to be a five-story building. Ground for the construction of this LIVINGSTONE GETS NEW RATING President W. J. Trent of Livingstone College, Salisbury, N. C. received the following letter from the State Department of Education at Raleigh, recently which reads thus: "Enclosed herewith, I am handing you report of visit made to your Institution on February 11th. Considerable improvement has been made at Livingstone College and in recognition of that fact it is recommended that the graduates of the session 1925-26 be given credit for three years of standard college work. "Heretofore only two years' credit has been allowed and we congratulate you and the institution upon the fact that the improvement made warrants us in allowing Class B certificates to be issued to the graduates of Livingstone. "Let me express the hope that such improvement will be made during the next session that the graduates for the session of 1926-27 may be given Class A certificates." With such improvements in so short a time under the new administration, the friends and alumni are encouraged in their campaign for $250,000. Organizations for securing subscriptions and contributions in the drive are being perfected in various centers over the country. The first one thousand dollars was given by Bishop G. L. Blackwell, just prior to his death a few weeks ago. Fisk Students Take Out Insurance for Alma Mater Columbus, Ohio, April 12—The graduating classes of 1925 and 1926 at Fisk University, Nashville, Tennessee established a precedent this week in the Group Insurance of the two classes in the Supreme Life and Casualty Company of Columbus, Ohio. The policies were taken out on the individual lives of the students and Fisk was made irrevocable beneficiary in each case, marking the culmination of a nation-wide campaign for the increased endowment of the University. This unique insurance feature, probably the first of its kind successfully promoted by any company of our group, was initiated by Mr. E. L Powell, alumnus of Fisk University and West Virginia State manager of the Supreme Life Insurance Company. The class of 1925 was active in this constructive effort, by the class building was broken in June, 1922. On August 8, 1922, the cornerstone was laid. No work has been done on the structure since December, 1923. The New Masonic Hall Corporation incorporated April 19, 1919, undertook the construction of this building. The original capital stock of this corporation was $50,000 divided into 5,000 shares of the par value of $10 a share. In 1920 the capital stock was increased from $50,000 to $100,000 common and $125,000 preferred, nonvoting at $25 a share. A meeting to increase the capital stock and authorize a loan to be made on the property was called for March 20, 1925, but the Charles Datcher Lodge No. 15, Allan A. C. Griffith and Dr. Elias G. Evans filed suit on March 17, 1925, for an accounting, an injunction and a receivership. The defendants named were Jesse H. Mitchell, president; Frank D. McKinney vice-president; Philip W. Thomas, recording secretary; William H. Cowan treasurer; Archibald Runner, financial secretary; Paul R. Stewart, John S. George, Benjamin F. Arrington, Mary A. Parker, George L. Sydnor, Ernest M. Dickerson, Marie L. Johnson, Susi R. Quander, Henry Banks and George M. Ambler, trustees, of the New Masonic Hall Corporation. On May 18, 1925, Justice Hitz appointed a committee consisting of Alexander Wolf, attorney for the plaintiffs; William L. Houston, attorney for the defendants; Charles P. Ford, Grand Master of the Most Worshipful Acacia Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons for the District of Columbia; Jesse H. Mitchell, president of the New Masonic Hall Corporation, and Herbert L. Davis, court auditor, as a disinterested person, to auditor, as a disinterested person, to complete the structure. This committee was unable to secure a loan because the two opposing Masonic factions would not compose their differences. It made its report to the court on January 20, 1926, and was discharged. The committee in its report recommended that this property be sold. On March 2, 1926, Justice Hitz signed the order authorizing the sale. Ford Makes Statement In an interview with the Tribune, Grandmaster Ford stated that "the victory on the side of right is a double victory." Continuing, he declared." We realize however that our biggest job is just ahead of us. The time for making deposits at the Prudential Bank has been extended to May 3rd, and we are calling upon all loyal members of the craft to support our efforts." Commenting upon the effort to have the Odd Follows purchase the property, he said, "It is unfortunate for that organization that the proponents of the plan were so lacking in foresight. It has placed our order in an embarrassing position and reflects upon a leadership which would advocate an abandonment of principle to gain advantage or benefit at the expense through the misfortunes of others. "It is our duty as Masons to see to it that there shall be no friction between our two greatest orders, and that the good will that has so long prevailed shall not be disturbed."

The two classes voted to take insurance in favor of their Alma Mater and voted to present this increase in the University assets to the Fisk corporation during commencement week, marking a new epoch in the life of Fisk University and showing, the acceptance by the younger generation of the responsibilities of a greater share in the maintenance of our educational institutions. CITY CHOIRS CELEBRATE IN GREAT SONG FEST AT SHILOH CHURCH Review of Event with Criticisms, Comment and Invitation By Wellington Adams The choir of Shiloh Baptist Church, Dr. J. Milton Waldron, pastor, T. H. Ward, chorister and Edward M. Syphax, organist, was host to city choirs on choir night, Wednesday, April 7th. Although there was no choir contest booked definitely, in a sense it was one. A keen rivalry appeared to exist and interest in the outcome was fraught with all kinds of possibilities, commendable or condemnatory, according to viewpoint. However, comparisons in such a choir group was obviously to be drawn by comparisons, of course, being based upon general efficiency. Campbell A. M. E. choir opened with a light selection followed by Metropolitan Baptist choir, A. D. Gilmore, directing. Third Baptist choir with W. E. Lew, directing, next sang a selection, and the First Baptist choir of West Washington, J. N. Lawson, director, next appeared. This choir assumed the most correct position while singing than any other during the evening and Mrs. Nellie Smith, obligato soloist, bordered on the artistic in rendition with the choir. Metropolitan A. M. E. choir, J. Henry Lewis, director, had the best bass choir and a truly wonderful obligato soloist in Miss Maude E. Smothers who sang acceptably, and Metropolitan also had the most effective ensemble. Second Baptist choir, Scott Mayo, directing, had the best tenor choir with Stanley Brooks as a redeeming feature of the chorus. Mt. Carmel Baptist choir, J. D. Broadnax, chorist, had Mrs. Marie Snowden, soprano obligato, whose velvet voice carried far and true, as chief attraction. Union Wesley A. M. E. Zion choir, Miss Virginia Williams, director and organist, may well claim the right of having rendered the most artistic composition of the evening with a capable leader in charge. Nineteenth Street Baptist choir, carried on with rhythmic grace and with the best alto section of any choir present. Benjamin Washington may well feel proud of them. It was left to Lincoln Congregational choir, Miss Mary Europe, director and pianist, to exhibit the best form and style in ensemble work, as it differed markedly from the others. Mt. Moriah, I. Johnson, chorister, did some nice a capella work similar to Union Wesley's choir which was refreshing. The Asbury M. E. choir, Robert W. Johnson, chorister, closed the program with most graceful directing on the part of the leader. Their shading was especially pleasing. Thus closed the most successful choir gathering in recent local history. Organize Now The time is now ripe for an inter- denominational choir organization. Already we have secured the endorse- ment of Rev. Dr. J. Milton Waldron, Professors J. Henry Lewis, Virginia Williams, A. D. Glimore, and Timothy H. Ward. Are other directors present that evening willing to co-operate in this formal movement which would benefit all local choirs? Kindly send name and address to the Music Forum Editor, Tribune office, at once if you are interested in such a movement. Arrangements will be made for a call meeting to be held within the next two weeks from date. Y. M. C. A. BIBLE STORY CONTEST The first annual city-wide Bible story telling contest will be held at the Twelfth Street, Y. M. C. A., Friday evening, April 23. Intermediate and senior boys from various Sunday schools will tell the story of their particular Biblical heroes. All stories will represent the original work of the contestants. The contest will be an annual feature of the religious work of the Y. M. C. A. through which it is expected that the interest of boys in reading the Bible and studying its outstanding characters will be greatly increased. Mr. Charles A. Booker, chairman of the religious work committee of th Twelfth Street Branch, states that the response which has been received from the Sunday Schools in this initial effort shows that the interest of boys in the Bible and in its heroes is higher than ordinarily suspected. All stories will be limited to five minutes and the winners will be selected by a board of five judges under the low point system. The public is invited to the "Y" Assembly Hall. Each contestant will be cheered on by a delegation from his Sunday School. A new standard The Velvet Kind ICE CREAM Mme.

"Runnin' Wild" Now in Bigger Houses The road show edition of "Runnin' Wild" that has spent most of the winter in the southern territory, is again playing the bigger northern centres. This week, the company is in the Booker Washington theatre, St. Louis, The Washington, Indianapolis; The Grand, Chicago, and the Koppin in Detroit to follow in that order. To those familiar with routings and available houses, it seems that the show should be seen again in Washington before the close of the season. Gallie DeGaston and Albert W. Jackson continue to handle the comedy with the show. Brown-Skin Revue Doing the One-Nighters Allen's Brown-Skin Revue, with H. K.

Mrs. Valentino was the former Natacha Rambova (Winifred Hudnut) and is the best-dressed and most talked of wo- THE SPORT REVIEW 'Jazz' Byrd to Race Hubbard at Howard Track Meet "Jazz" Byrd, famous Lincoln halfback and track star, has accepted an invitation to run a special 100-yard dash against DeHart Hubbard, National collegiate record holder for this event, at the Howard track meet to be held on the Howard University Campus, May 8. "Jazz" Byrd visited the new gymnasium several days ago and told Coach Watson that he figured to be in the pink of condition with another month's training. Byrd has been clocked in even time for the century and 220 sprints and figures to do the 100 yard in less than 10 flat, if he is pushed. Byrd is also expected to furnish competition for Hubbard in the running broad jump. As a member of the Lincoln track team, Byrd turned in leaps of more than twenty-two feet at a number of meets. Perhaps his second best performance in track and field athletics is the running high jump. Byrd has captured this event at several of the annual track and field meets held at Howard University and Hampton Institute. It was not unusual for him to be returned the winner of three first places in ordinary meets and high point man a number of times where competition was keen. Many Events Listed For C.I.A.A. Meet Hampton, Va., April 14—The fifth track and field meet, sanctioned by the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association, member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association, will be held on Armstrong Field, Hampton Institute, May 15, 1926.

The interscholastic events will be a 100-yard dash, 220-yard dash, 440-dash, mile run, 880-dash, broad jump and high jump. The collegiate relay events scheduled are a one-mile relay for the Madam C. J. Walker, trophy; the two-mile relay, and medley relays of 440, 220 and 880 yards, and a mile. The one-mile interscholastic relay will be restricted to high schools. There will also be a special mile relay limited to Virginia high schools. The pentathlon will consist of 200 meters and 1,500 meters, running broad jump, javelin throw and the discus throw. A point trophy will be given the institution winning the highest number of points in both the intercollegiate and interscholastic events. A silver loving cup will be given each institution winning a relay. The Madam C. J. Walker trophy for the one-mile collegiate relay becomes the permanent property of the first institution winning it three times. Frank Young, sports editor of The Chicago Defender, is offering a trophy to the winner of the one-mile interscholastic relay, and The Defender is giving a silver loving cup to the winner of the 440-yard dash. Gold medals will be given first-place winners in each event; silver medals to second-place winners in each event, and bronze medals to third-place winners in each event. Entries close May 2, 1926.

Sports Editor HOWARD TRACK TEAM ROUNDS INTO SHAPE The Howard University track squad under the tutelage of Charles West, is rounding into form nicely. Williams, the big sprinter from the Middle West is breezing away from a fast field of sprint stars including Joe Carter formerly of Brown University. From his past record and present form, Williams promises to give DeHart Hubbard a meat shave in the 100-yard special. The Howard coaches are expecting Williams to lead both Hubbard and the famous "Jazz" Byrd to the tape. A large squad is working out daily in all events and fine progress is being made. The Howard University squad expects to participate in the Penn Relays, the Baltimore Meet, the Lincoln Meet, and the Howard National Championships. Try-outs for the Penn Relays will be held the first of next week. An added attraction will be a track meet of Howard University girls on the morning of Saturday, May 8th. The following events will be staged: a 50-yard dash; a 75-yard/dash, a running high jump; runfing broad jump; potato race; and relay races. The young women are training under the direction of Miss M. R. Reeves, instructor in Physical Education for women. It is the ambition of these young ladies to compare favorably with the women all over the country who have received the athletic awakening. St. Paul Defeats Hampton 5 to 2 Hampton - Va.. April 12 - St. Paul had the thrill last Saturday afternoon of defeating Hampton for the first time this season when errors by the Seasiders paved the way for a 5 to 2 d defeat on Armstrong Feld. Poor support of Jimmy Adams, the Hampton pitching ace, accounted for the defeat. J. Wallace, who did mound duty for St. Paul, struck out eight batters and allowed but five hits, one a triple by Quinn, Hampton receiver, in the ninth.

The Black Sox is the third club that Ben Taylor has been with in the Eastern League. He began his eastern league career as the manager and first baseman of the Washington Potomacs. From Washington he went to the Harrisburg Giants where he helped Oscar Charleston to build a championship contending team. The career of Lloyd in the Eastern League has been somewhat similar. Lloyd began his eastern league services with the Hildales and then moved to the Bacharach Giants. Neither Ben Taylor nor Lloyd will be in entirely strange company in their new berths. In Baltimore, Ben will have with him McClure, Bill Force, Crush Holloway, Connie Day and Strong, all of whom played with him on the Indianapolis A. B. C.'s in 1922. Lloyd has a quartet of fromer Bacharach Giants with him on the Lincoln Giants this year. They are Bill Nuttall, Tom Finley, Roy Roberts and Johnnie Harper. Union League to Have Eight Clubs The Union League will have eight clubs this season instead of six. The Stonewalls and Arlington Elks have been given franchises. The other teams are the Washington Giants, the Teddy Bears, Oriental Tigers, St. Cyprians, Ledroit Tigers and Virginia All Stars. Their season will be begin on Sunday, May 2. A meeting of the Union League managers is scheduled for Sunday afternoon at the home of President Hayes Jones, 115 Four-and-One-Half Street, Southwest. Roval Giants Win New York, N.Y., April 12—The Brooklyn Royal Giants won an old-fashioned slugging bee at Graham Field, Sunday afternoon, from the Bay Ridge nine, by a score of 13 to 8. Holland started for the Royals, but only lasted four innings. Dick Redding relieved him. Enzman, pitching for the Bay Ridge team, was sent to the showers in the seventh. The Royals started their scoring in the first inning. Rector doubled, Burnett sacrificed, Scales doubled, scoring Rector. Smith doubled scoring Scales. Brooks and Hill both flied out. Bay Ridge in the second took the lead when they scored four runs on four hits and a wild throw to center field by the Royal's catcher. Bay Ridge gave the Royals a scare in the ninth. With the bases loaded, Billy Tamm, Bay Ridge third sacker, hit one of Redding's benders on the nose, but Broadway Rector caught it for the third out. Batteries—Holland, Redding and Spearman and Cason; Enzman, Hockenberry and Sheck. Philadelphia, Pa., April 15 (By The Associated Negro Press) Charles Fred White, the colored member of the Pennsylvania Boxing Commission, has renewed his bitter denouncement against William H. Rocap, Chairman of the commission, whose actions have aroused the fair-minded people of this city. Race hatred, being the foundation of Rocap's actions, White has made plain what he thinks of his fellow member. It was reported sometime ago that Commissioner White had filed formal charges with Governor Pinchot against Commissioner Rocap, and when the latter was called to Harrisburg last week rumors were current that there was a change impending in the personnel of the commission. These rumors were not officially confirmed, however, Governor Pinchot announcing after the conference that Commissioner Rocap had not resigned and that he did not know whether or not he intended to leave the commission. Rumors of the impending change in the commission, however have persisted; and were supported by the recent announcement that Commissioner Rocap had accepted the sports editorship of a new afternoon paper to be started next week in Atlantic City. Commissioner White's latest attack on Commissioner Rocap grew out of a statement sent to the newspapers Wednesday over the signature of Secretary Robert A. Young, of the commission, to the effect that the commission had dropped the charge against Harry Mc Grath, a promoter of amateur boxing. Ledroits Work Out Daily The Ledroit Tigers are working out daily on the Howard playgrounds. A practice game is being arranged with the Howard University team. Racing Stable Shipped To Columbus Track The Dudley-Keys racing stable of six horses was shipped to the Columbus, Ohio, race track on Wednesday in charge of trainer C. Manly who had a special express car for the speedsters and their caretakers. Three of the horses race under the colors of Lieutenant Keys. They are Sonny Hill, Regina K., and Lieutenant Key. The others Lally, Arrow Hawk and Snuffy, the latter named for the character part of Dave Marion, the actor with whom Mr. Dudley made his last professional appearance on the stage, are all entered in races under Mr. Dudley's colors. After the Columbus meet, in all probability the stable will follow the circuit to the Canadian tracks before being returned to Washington.

Address: Lincoln Giants Win and Tie New York, April 12—Playing their first double-header of the season, the Lincoln Giants went eight innings in a 4 to 4 tie game with the Bloomfield, Elks, the game being called by agreement, and lost the second game to the Bronx Giants, 6 to 4. Sunday afternoon, at the Catholic Protectory. In the first game Haynes was wild and three bases on balls, with two singles, scored four runs for the Bloomfield Elks in the initial inning. The Lincoln Giants scored two runs on an error, two singles and a double. In the sixth the Lincolnens evened the count on an infield hit, a sacrifice, two singles and a sacrifice fly. In the second game Hayward was hit for a total of three singles, a double, with two bases on balls, netting five runs for the Bronx Giants. The Lincoln Giants were held to two runs until the seventh, when they scored two runs on Lloyd's pass. G. Johnson's double, R. Gee's infield hit scoring Lloyd, and Lewis's sacrifice fly scoring G. Johnson. Howard Baseball Season Begins The Howard University baseball season began Friday week when the Blue and White nine bowed in defeat to Storer College of Harper's Ferry, W. Va., by a score of 3 to 2. On Saturday morning, the Hilltoppers came back and swamped the West Virginians by a score of 12 to 1. On Monday, the following Howard was defeated by Bennett College where the North Carolina invasion was begun. The score was 6 to 5. The Howard team then moved on to Durham where Durham State Normal was defeated by a score of 7 to 5. By Fred R. Byrd The final sport night program put on at the Y. M. C. A. was a scream. All of the boxing bouts were full of pop and gave the spectators just the thrill they expected. The first part of the program was run off by the youngsters of the Boys' Department and consisted of many novel events including boxing, relay races, funny games and of other attractions. They were followed by the men of the Senior Department who gave the big time boxing exhibitions, the first of which was between Johnny Crutchfield, colored lightweight champion of the city, and Jo Stewart, a serious contender whom we believe in a few more months of training will give Crutchfield the best two-fisted fight in his career. The next bout was between Roughhouse Roger Willis, light heavyweight champion of the "Y" and Joe Smith, probably new at the game; Willis seemed quite glad to hear the sound of the ending gong with Smith standing in front of him exchanging punch for punch. Kid Woody, the undisputed colored middleweight champion of the city, did well in refusing to show up for his feature bout with Tiger Rose Carroll, who in the absence of Kid Woody issued a challenge to the house, claiming that in as much as he had come out to fight and was togged up to do so he would take on any middleweight in the house to satisfy his appetite for Kid Woody. A chap by the name of Eugene Smith accepted the challenge. He was put on the scales by Mr. Simmons, the physical director, and found to weigh 165 pounds. The Tiger made no squabble whatsoever only asking that he be thrown in the ring with him for three rounds, and he would bring him down to his weight, 153 pounds, that he had been in the habit of spotting guys weight. The song, we believe saved Smith from "that thing." The last event was a basketball game in which the "Y" Stars defeated the "Y" Flashes, 26 to 25. BASKETBALL SERIES The championship basketball game in the inter-city series will be played Monday night, April 19 at 8-o'clock in the Phyllis Wheatley gymnasium.

State Street, Chicago, Ill NO PERFORNER HAS RIGHT TO CUT ACT WITHOUT MANAGER CONSENT Rastus and Marie were booked into the Foraker Theatre last week by the Dudley office, and the act worked quite normally until Wednesday when Rastus cut his act a few minutes. Then hings happened. George Martn a very wide-awake amange who operates his show on precise schedule based upon the running time of the first performance, asked the reason; and the male member of the team informed him that he cut the act because he had not received the applause at a point in the act that he felt merited some approval from the audience. Mr. Martin then asked him how he would enjoy having his salary cut. Words of a belligerent character followed with the result that the act was closed and Kirkpatrick and Bowman a versatile pair, who had played the house but a few weeks ago, were called in to complete the week. Performers should not have to be constantly reminded by drastic and costly actions such as Mr. Martin was obliged to put into effect, that when they sign a contract to do certain things for a certain period of time, that they are in duty bound to deliver all of the promised service. It is incumbent upon the performers to deliver the act that has been approved at the opening show; and to make the act as good as lays within their power. "Cutting" the act is a cheap way of defrauding the manager who provides employment. It defrauds every patron who pays the regular price of admission to see the show, and no sensible manager who must naturally have the good will of his community is going to look with favor upon the performer whom he pays by losing that good will with trifling work or conduct. There is no room in the show business for the alleged performer who does not take his work seriously enough to do the work for which he has been engaged. Show business is business, and must be so regarded by those who engage in theatricals for a livelihood. "REVUE NEGRE" HAS LOST SOME PEOPLE The colored musical comedy company, now in Russia, that has been in Continental Europe for more than a year, is slowly losing its principals, according to information from the other side. In addition to Wooding, orchestra director, who left the show and attached it in Berlin, Lottie Gee abandoned them some time since to join Eubie Blake while he and Sissle were in London. Josephine Baker, the eccentric chorister of "Seven Eleven" who went with the show as a featured engeneus is now doing her comedy stunts at the Folies DeBergerie in Paris; and Maude DeForrest, blues singer and serio-composer who was once a burlesque feature associated with George McClendon, is at the Champs Elyses in Paris. Both of these girls are tremendous hits working single.

The little graduate was invited to participate in a concert given by the Sons and Daughters of Rebec- THE MUSEUM OF THE WORLD ADA LOCKHART BOOKER, leading lady with the "Silas Green from New Orleans" Co. sa; and right there was begun what was to become a remarkable theatrical career, and a series of fraternal connections, both of which were to find expression all over America. Ada was first featured as a female baritone and her professional training was initiated under Rev. Whitman who was then managing the tour of his group of talented daughters at that time appearing exclusively under school and church auspices. After a season with them, Ada attracted the attention of Prof. Will Marion Cook in New York and at his solicitation joined the Williams and Walker Company. The death of her mother at sailing time prevented Ada's sailing to England with the show. The next four years was spent with the Black Patti show, at that time the premier attraction of the country.

While with this show, Ada made her first venture into matrimony, Sho and Carter Lockhart were married in Atlanta, Ga., and together they joined the Whitney and Tutt Smart Set show. Two years later they started their own show—Lockhart's Stock Company at Dallas, Texas. A year and a half later they went into vaudeville, thence into Pete Worthy's Florida Blossoms for three months, after which the stock show was revived. Lockhart died and the show was closed when the wife took his body to Atlanta for burial in January, 1914. She joined the Order of Calanthes there, and three months later resumed travelling with Tollivers' Smart Set. A return trip to Worthy's Show, a bit of touring with the C. W. Parks tented attraction, and some vaudeville booked through Charles Collier, and some character study under the late Bob Russell marked the months following. In 1915, Mrs. Lockhart joined the Eph Williams "Silas Green" company where she has since remained, save for a brief period of illness. In 1920, Charles Collier became owner of the show. In that same year, Ada joined the Ordgr of Eastern Stars in Jacksonville, being obligated by Matron Mrs. L. D. Powell. Just prior to this she married Lawrence Booker a cornetist; and since then they have bought property in Boomer, West Virginia, and in Daytona Beach, Fla., and are prepared to end their aged days when they can troupe no more in either a southern or a northern clime as they may find most convenient when that time shall have come.

The show will, in all probability, play the nearby cities later, if it does not move to Broadway, for the Plantation Room is due to close for the summer soon, if custom prevails. Edith Wilson, Leonard Harper, Hinton Jones, Tiny Ray, Washington Dewey, Jones Nit, Jones and Jones, Billie Mills, Bessie Allison, Henry Winfred, Lloyd Mitchell, Alma Smith, Foster and Joyner, and the three Eddies constitute the principals. The Plantation Room chorus is, of course, almost as big an attraction as the girls are a carefully picked and well trained group. If a road appearance is agreed upon, the Dunbar in Philadelphia, Orpheum in Newark, and the Howard in this will be favored. "BROWN-SKIN MODELS" BREAKS RECORD Louisville, Ky.-Irvin C. Miller's "Brown-Skin Models" who played a week's engagement at the Lyric Theatre here the week of March 15th to capacity crowds, playa da two-night's return engagement at the same thecapture crowds, played a two-night's than three weeks and broke all records for attendance. The theatre, which seats 1000 was filled in less than twenty minutes after the doors were open on each night, and hundreds were unable to get standing room. This proves conclusively that the people of Louisville know a good show and that they will support one. AUTO BATTERIES RECHARGED TUNGAR BATTERY STATION POTOMAC 3502 707 R St. N.W. "CHARLESTON - FRICASSEE" A GOOD SHOW Miller and Slater have made good on the boast of the Howard Theatre management that it would provide a succession of good shows. The team that has been going into New York for many seasons and bringing out with them a new production each time, came out this season with as snappy little sixteen-people show as one might expect for anything less than a dollar top. Unfortunately, fire marshal regulations as to fireproofing scenery prevented the hanging of eight beautiful drapes that would have added materially to the splendor of the revue. At that, the show was much better equipped scenically than are most tabloid shows. And there was talent in the cast. They could sing, they could dance and the girls were good to look upon. The piece was clean and novel. The bit based upon expressive drama somewhat like "Experience" was almost "highrow" and is susceptible of enlargement. The family quarrel skit proved to be a humorous bit of homely comedy that registered. Amon Davis was, as usual, funny. Two other black-face worker contributed to the comedy. A dope fiend characterization was good. Ethiopian Players Rehearsing African Drama The local Ethiopian Art Players are rehearsing a piece called "Paupalike-je." a drama based upon African life. It will be presented at a local theatre, possibly the Howard, during May. The piece is in three acts and ten scenes. A cast of ten is required to present it. The foregoing is according to Earl Balkand, publicity director who announces Eloise Beason, Lowery Barnes, Frank Jackson, Edward Saunders and a Miss Hall as members of the cast that Barrington Guy now has studying the script.

FRIDAY. APRIL 16. 1926 FROE LIKELY TO CONTINUE IN OFFICE The question of continuing Arthur G. Froe, of Welch, W. Va., as recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia or appointing a successor to him is still open. The President has not yet reached a decision. Representative John Phillip Hill, Republican, of Maryland again took up the matter of the appointment of Warner T. Mc Guinn, of Baltimore, Maryland, as recorder of deeds, last Monday, with the White House. He was advised that no action has been taken with reference to this position, but he is continuing his efforts. In urging the appointment of Mr. Mc Guinn, Representative Hill called attention to his unusual qualifications and the desirability of recognizing the civic function of the colored citizens of Maryland. Others who are seeking the record-orship for one of their constituents include Senator T. Coleman du Pont, Republican of Delaware, who wants the office for Charles Colburn of Wilmington; Senator William B. Mc Kinley, Republican of Illinois, who has presented the name of R. A. Williams of Chicago, and Senator James E. Watson, Republican of Indiana, who is supporting Ernest G. Tidrington of Evansville, Indiana, for the position. Mr. Froe has filled the office for the past four years. He was nominated by the late President Harding on February 2, 1922, and confirmed by the Senate on February 15, 1922. He serves at the pleasure of the President. His services have been very satisfactory. DIES IN NEW YORK 一 Mr. Greenbury Holmes of 2130 Newport Place, Northwest, the son of Mr. and Warren L.
