WILL OF GEORGE GRICE DISPOSES OF LARGE ESTATE TO FAMILY FIRST IN ADVERTISING AND CIRCULATION WILL OF GEORGE DISPOSES OF ESTATE OWNED STOCK IN MANY ENTERPRISES AND MUCH REAL ESTATE The will of George W. Grice, undertaker with a business at 1702 12th Street, Northwest, who died at his residence 1423 Sixth Street, Northwest, on June 26, was filed with a petition testamentary in the Probate Court by the National Savings and Trust Company, executors. The will was a brief document drawn by Thomas Walker, personal attorney for Mr. Grice since his first business transaction more than forty years ago. Mr. Walker with Dr. Robert Tyler and Edmund Hill, Jr., are the witnesses to the will which was drawn just four days prior to the death of the testator. It was signed by the making of a mark, as Mr. Grice was then too ill to sign his name. Under its terms, the trust company is to maintain the estate in trust for the widow and at her death it is to be divided share and share alike among the four children. Mrs. Mary L. Grice, the widow, is to continue the conduct of the undertaking business so long as it is deemed wise to do so; and the will directs that no feature of the document may be upset except under written request of the wife. The four children who are beneficiaries are George W. Grice, Jr., Ulysse Grice, Blanche and Rose Grice. The estate is one of the most valuable ever offered for probate by a colored citizen of the District. The petition lists more than fifty parcels of realty in the District of Columbia, including the business property at Twelfth Street and Vermont Avenue and the residence on Sixth Street. The assessed value of these properties is more than $85,000. In addition, there is listed a twelve-acre farm in Calvert County, Md., and two, lots near White Plains in Westchester County, New York, just north of New York City. Mr. Grice's investment list indicates that he was a consistent supporter of race enterprises. He owned a one-seventh interest in the Moore Cemetery Association, now called the Montrose Cemetery, and prior to his death gave to his wife about $3,000 of the notes he held for money advanced to that concern in its earlier days. At the same time he gave to her about twenty thousand dollars worth of securities and approximately six thousand dollars in cash. He held promissory notes of nearly fifty people for a total of more than $14,000. He diversified his stock interests with holdings in the Mortgage Bond and Guarantee Company and the Austin Nevada Consolidated Mining Company. He maintained a steady deposit of ten thousand dollars in the Prudential Bank, and had a balance of about that amount there at the time of his death. Of this sum, about $1500 is due to several organizations for which he functioned as treasurer. The balance was personal funds. At the time of his death, Mr. Grice was worth well beyond a hundred thousand dollars, and if the estate were liquidated, it is entirely probable that the figures would be more nearly a hundred and fifty thousand dollars. WIFE SOLE BENEFICIARY OF DR. S. S. THOMPSON WIFE SOLE BENEFICIARY OF DR. S. S. THOMPSON The entire estate of Dr. Silas S. Thompson, who died on July 24, last, is left to his wife, Mrs. Violet A. Thompson. The will of Dr. Thompson was filed for probate last Thursday by Attorney J. Louis Taylor, who is the executor under it. It was made in August, 1925, and was witnessed by Arthur J. Smith, 935 R Street, Northwest; Francis Dye, 1107 O Street, Northwest and Raymond B. Thomas, 2005 Thirteenth Street, Northwest. Mrs. Violet A. Thompson is the second wife of Dr. Thompson. She married him after he had secured a divorce from his former wife, Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson, in Reno, Nevada, October 31, 1922. THE CONFESSIONAL LIBRARY. FIRST ST. OCT. 8. D. The W The Washington Tribune PUBLISHED WEEKLY GE GRICE OF LARGE E TO FAMILY CHURCH SCHOOL CONVENTION ELECTS OFFICERS COMMUNITY SING MARKS CLOSE OF WEEK'S MEETINGS An outdoor song service marked the close of A.M.E.Z. Church-School Convention held in this city last week with sessions at four different churches of the faith. The song service was held on Sunday afternoon in a public park and it was well attended. On Saturday a parade by the Sunday school children of the Zion churches of the city, and many visiting organizations gave a colorful aspect to the serious work of the week. The parade route was changed after publication thus failing to pass many of the points that prospective reviewers had selected. The disappointment was caused by the determination of a route prior to consultation with the Metropolitan Police authorities who were obliged to forbid the tying up of traffic on U Street and other busy thoroughfares. The parade terminated at the Monument grounds where a field day program was presented by the youngsters. Rain interrupted the schedule of events to some extent, but did not dampen the ardor of the Zionists. The offrs elected to serve the body for the next four years were: president, E. S. Peters of Alabama; vice presidents, E. C. Harris, Pennsylvania; W. C. Redding, North Carolina; J. A. Norr Pennsylvania; Mrs. Sarah Moore, issouri J. A. McMurray, South Carolina; Dr. W. O. Taylor, Massachusetts, and J. E. Rowe, Ohio; recording secretary, Miss Marion Hooks; assistant recording secretary, Miss A. R. Harris; corresponding secretary, Mr. C. B. Cowan; Tennessee, and treasurer, A. G. Giddings, New York. Executive committee—Rev. C. C. Williams of this city, chairman; the officers elected and these in addition: G. A. Moore, North Carolina; D. J. Hughlett, Kentucky Benjamin Smith, New York; J. W. Manuel, Virginia; Mrs. M. W. Meachem, Arkansas, and Miss Teresa Hacket, California. WASHINGTON TERMINAL HEAD DIES J. H. Tonge, general manager of the Washington Terminal Station, died at his home in this city last week. He was buried on Sunday with Masonic ceremonies as a member of the Scottish Rite Consistory. Mr. Tonge was the titular head of a large staff of employees, and the virtual head of the transportation interests that served the Capital, because all of the railways entering the city surrendered their business to the Washington Terminal Company at the city line.

Ryan, publisher of "Ryan's Weekly," against the "Tacoma News Tribune." Mr. Ryan objects to the reference to him in news articles as "the negro publisher." Mr. Ryan is a militantly aggressive editor who has been a candidate for the legislature in the state of Washington, and who has been active in an effort to preserve to the Negro every right that the Constitution affords. His present suit strikes at one of the prevalent practices of American journalism. It is perhaps the first challenge ever made to daily newspaper policies. TWO AUTOISTS HELD IN DEATH OF LUCILLE COLEMAN TWO AUTOISTS HELD IN DEATH OF LUCILLE COLEMAN The coroner's jury on August 11, held Lewis W. Thomas of this city and Edgar R. Clark of Pittsburg for the action of the grand jury under bail of $2,000 for the accidental killing of Lucille Coleman at the corner of New Jersey Avenue and E Streets, Northwest, the morning of August 9. Clark was driving a car owned by his uncle, Frank B. Bell of the Portner apartments on U Street, Northwest, while going south on New Jersey Avenue, and Thomas was driving east on E Street. According to witnesses before the coroner's jury, both were going at a rate of speed estimated to be between 30 and 40 miles an hour. The cars collided and one was driven onto the sidewalk by the crash where it pushed over a lamp post and struck Miss Coleman who was waiting for a street car. She was badly lacerated, a number of bones were crushed and she suffered internal injuries that resulted in her death before she could be taken to a hospital. The young girl was the daughter of Mrs. Rosa B. Coleman formerly of Richmond, but recently living at 40 E Street, Northwest. Upon the advice of an uncle of the girl, E. W. Booker, a mail carrier and prominent citizen of Richmond, the mother retained counsellor Armand B. Scott to prosecute the civile and criminal cases growing out of the matter. Lewis W. Thomas who had posted a five hundred dollar bond with the police at the time of his arrest, has apparently left the city. NORTH BRENTWOOD WANTS RHODE ISLAND AVENUE EXTENSION NORTH BRENTWOOD WANTS RHODE ISLAND AVENUE EXTENSION Tenders Part of Cost North Brentwood, Md., the incorporated town across the District line that is wholly populated by colored people and governed by race men as town officials, and whose homes number 114 houses, has joined the group of Maryland communities that have indorsed the movement to extend Rhode Island Avenue beyond the District limits. To accomplish the extension of the road, the various Maryland communities that would benefit from the direct route into Washington are pledging funds with which to defray the cost of construction with the expectation of being reimbursed by the state legislature at the 1927 session. The proposed road extension will run parallel with the Washington Railway and Electric Line. North Brentwood has enthusiastically accepted the responsibility of raising its proportion of the $125,000 that will be required. The mayor and the town council have a committee to consider the matter of right of way and another to handle the matter of financing the community's share of the cost. The committees appointed comprise: Committee on right of way Horace Allen, Wallace Williams William H. Thomas, Julius Wheeler and Joseph L. Gordon; committee on finance, William A. Middleton, John B. Sellers, Mrs. Abbie Baker, Mrs Mattie D. McCauley and William H Stafford. Mayor Jeremiah Hawkins appointed Mr. Allen and Mr. Middleton to serve as chairmen of their respective committees.

Among the distinguished guests present were General John L. Brown and staff of Wilmington, Del.; General Joseph E. Mitchell and staff with one company of the uniform rank and a drill corps of the Court of Calanthe of Baltimore) Md. After the day's events, the visiting officers were entertained by the staff of General J. Clay Smith of the District of Columbia at the Libya restaurant. Colonel Louis E. Myers and staff, with patrols 18 and 42, of Morning Star Lodge, 45, I.B.P.O.E.W., and the marching club of the same lodge were local units that joined the Pythians in their parade. Colonel George F. Knickerbocker K. of P. Inspector General, was master of ceremonies. Colonel Smith's staff includes Colonels W. T. Conway, Adjutant General, who was in active command of the drilling troops; George F. Ryon, Advocate General; B. F. Johnson, Chief of Staff, and R. G. Henderson, Signal Officer. Five K. of P. companies drilled. They were reviewed by the staff with the Grand Chancellor of the District as guest. A baseball game was presented by teams representing the Treasury Department and the U.S. Government Printing Office.

Miller, escorted by the Separate Battalion, District National Guards under command of Captain Arthur C. Newman. DROPPED DEAD IN CHURCH DROPPED DEAD IN CHURCH George Patterson, a senior deacon in Alexander Memorial Church on 26th Street, Northwest, dropped dead as he arose to make an address at the deacons' business meeting of the church board on Wednesday, August 4. "I'm through," was his only utterance as he reeled and fell to the floor dead. He was buried from the church on the Sunday following Rev. L. R. Frazier preached the funeral sermon. A wife, his second, the bride of but a few months, a sister and two brothers survive him. He was a property owner at 500 Thirty-fourth Street and was highly regarded in the neighborhood in which he lived. He had for years been in the government service and his superiors regarded his work with the same degree of favor that he commanded in the church and home community. LINCOLN, MD., YOUTH RUN OVER BY AUTO On Sunday afternoon, August 8, Henry Hackley, age 20, of Lincoln, Md., was seriously injured and may not survive injuries sustained when run over by an automobile that hit him about 2:30 p.m. while walking along the Defense Highway near his home. The car that struck him was owned and driven by Henry W. Floyd, white, of Clarendon, Va. So hard was the impact that the bumper and headlights of the car were broken. Hackley sustained two large wounds on the head, suffered a broken arm, a broken leg and severe lacerations of face and back. There is strong probability that some ribs are fractured and that he has received other internal injuries. The owner of the car that inflicted the injuries declined to take Hackley to the hospital, as to so do would have entailed the necessity of removing his family from the car. After some delay, he paid a colored man to take the injured youth to the hospital. It was two hours from the time he was hit until he received medical attention at Freedman's Hospital where he is now hovering between life and death. Even should he recover, the boy will, in all probability be a physical wreck. Floyd is being held by the Maryland authorities pending the outcome of Hackley's injuries. SIXTH MARRIAGE RESULTS UNHAPPILY Charles Johnson, age 75 of 2419 H Street, Northwest, believes in having a wife. Last April he married for the sixth time. His latest wife is Mrs. Sarah Johnson, who is 35 years old according to police reports covering the most recent of their marital disputes that are said to have prevailed since the marriage. Mrs. Johnson demonstrated her vigor by emphasizing her remarks with the more or less gentle toss of a vase on Tuesday evening when they had a domestic discussion. Johnson went to Emergency Hospital with lacerations on the face and neck, and Mrs. Johnson became the guest of Precinct Three of the Metropolitan Police pending the result of the injuries sustained by the her off married spouse. SEGREGATION SUIT FILED AGAINST JULIA BRANCH SEGREGATION SUIT FILED AGAINST JULIA BRANCH By Louis R. Lautier A third court action to check the invasion of colored people into the Bloomingdale section has been filed in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia. It was brought by William S. and Elizabeth Sill, 132 Adams Street, Northwest, Helen N. Walsh, 125 Adams Street, Northwest, and Cecil E. and Ella P. Custer, 116 Adams Street, Northwest, through Attorneys Harry A. Grant and Martin F. O'Donoghue. The defendants are Kirby Kibbler, a real estate salesman employed by the Munsey Trust Company; William C. Robberts, an employee of the Columbia Title Company, and Mrs. Julia Branch, a colored woman. The court asked for a mandatory injunction compelling the defendants to abide by the provisions of a restrictive covenant which provides that the property shall never be rented, leased, sold, transferred or conveyed to any colored person under a penalty of $2,000. The court is also asked to order Mrs. Branch and any other colored persons who may be living with her at No. 120 Adams Street, Northwest, to vacate the premises and remove their effects, furniture and other personal property. Upon a final hearing of this case the court is asked to enjoin permanently the selling of this property to colored persons and to declare null and void the deeds to this property conveying it from Kirby Kibbler to William C. Robberts and from Robberts to Mrs. Julia Branch. The plaintiffs allege that the possession of this property by Mrs. Branch is "confiscatory, depreciative and absolutely ruinous" to real estate in the Bloomingdale section. They charge that Kibbler sought to evade and violate the restrictive covenant which is in the deeds to the property in this section, by conveying to Robberts, who acted as a "straw man" in the transaction. Robberts conveyed the property to Mrs. Branch, and she moved into it before suit was brought. The property in the Bloomingdale section was developed by Ray E. Middaugh and William E. Shannon. After constructing a number of houses in this section, they sold the property subject to a restrictive covenant running with the land. The Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia in decision on June 1, 1925, upheld these covenants. In the two cases, which have been recently filed with respect to property in this section, the judges have granted an injunction in one case and refused an injunction in another.

BEAMAN BURIED AMID BOWER OF FLOWERS Funeral Amid Bower of Flowers "Passed into a perfect life," reads the inscription on the casket in which the mortal remains of Mrs. Margaret Elizabeth Beaman was borne to its last rest. Expressions from lifelong friends, interviews with those prominent in benevolent circles and the words of the minister who committed the body to its maker confirmed the inscription. Mrs. Beaman, the wife of Rev. Joseph N. Beaman of 907 Westminster Street, died on Saturday, August 7, after an illness of four months. The funeral services, on Tuesday, the 10th were conducted by Rev. J. L. S. Holloman in the Second Baptist Church of which the deceased and her husband were members. Datcher Chapter, Order of Eastern Star of which Mrs. Beaman was an honor lady, conducted the beautiful rites of the craft. Honor Lady Georgia Gaskins, R.M., was in charge of that part of the services. the twilight services of the Golden Circle were conducted at 8 p.m., Monday evening, by the ladies of the Richard Howell Gleaves Assembly No. 2 an appendant of the Scottish Rite Consistory of which Mrs. Beanman was a member by virtue of her husband's place in Scottish Rite Masonry.

Representatives from each attended the funeral. from each attendee. "Mrs. Beaman was a friend of my mother," said Miss Norma Sewall daughter of Dr. Sewall of 900 S Street, Northwest, "and I have known her all of my life. She was a good and humane woman who was often seen at night as well as in daytime journeying from her home on some errand of mercy and help to afflicted persons. Often we have wondered at her seemingly unlimited capacity for benevolent service. I wish mamma were here to tell you how good this woman was. There are many who will miss Mrs. Beaman, and they are not confined to any one group of people. A good woman has been called to the perfect life."

In an interview this week, she said, "We shall open school the first Wednesday in October as usual." "A dean of the academy has been appointed. He is a highly qualified man. The other members of the faculty will be graduates of our best colleges and universities. We are looking for a dean for the trade school. The work of reorganization and expansion will be carried on during the entire year. "We are selecting highly qualified teachers and administrative officers so that the president can give her entire time to the program of expansion and rebuilding. "Plans for the new trades hall are being drawn. Upon the suggestion of an interested friend, we are restoring the building that was burned, in order that the work will not be too greatly handicapped while the new brick building is in course of construction. C. W. S. Graves, a local contractor, is now at work getting things in shape, so that the school can go on with its work in October. After Vacation "We could not conduct the campaign in the field during the summer, because the people upon whom we are depending to help us put it over had planned their vacation before the catastrophe, and those from whom we would solicit are scattered abroad. "The real drive in October and we shall not let up until the much needed administration and trades hall is dedicated. "We will labor under handicaps, but we can suffer them for a while, because we know the school that is being born out of fire, water, and toil, will be a credit to the friends who have pledged to stand by us in the sixth trouble and not to forsake us in the seventh." The trustees decided, at their last meeting to change the name of the school to "The National Academy and Trades School for Girls." It is hoped that Miss Burroughs will have the hearty co-operation of our entire citizenry. The school has a bright future. We must get back of it, and make it go big. Work on the central heating plant is nearing completion. Two small buildings will be moved to other locations to make room for the central building. All dormitories and class rooms will be put in first-class condition and the campus will be made as attractive as possible. The local drive will begin October 1. Professor John R. Hawkins will head the Washington Committee of One Hundred. MRS. MARY ADAMS BURIED WITH O. E. S. CEREMONIES Mrs. Mary J. Adams, aged 65, the wife of Thomas H.

ELKS CONVENTION TO BE: A LIVELY ONE Ocleveland, Ohio, August 18—Chief interest in the twenty-seventh annual Grand Lodge session of the Improved, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World, which will be held here August 22 to 27, centers in the election of officers. J. Finey Wilson, the present Grand Exalted Ruler, is a candidate for a fifth term. He is being opposed by Judge Edward W. Henry of Philadelphia, Pa.

James T. Carter, Grand Treasurer, of Richmond, Va., is being opposed for re-election by John White, also of Richmond, Va., C. Tiffany Tolliver, of Roanoke, Va., and James Martin, exalted ruler of Ft. Dearborn Lodge, Chicago, Ill. Judge Henry has declared himself in favor of the re-election of both Grand Secretary Bates and Grand Treasurer Carter. The candidacies of Harry H. Pace, John White, C. Tiffany Tolliver and James Martin are understood to have the approval of Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson. A spirited contest for the next Grand Lodge session is being waged by Memorial Lodge No. 3 of Baltimore, Maryland.

It would improve your hair and increase your beauty one hundred per cent." My hair has always been a trial to me so I tried HiJa. "Thank heavens I did, for as my actress friend had told me, this wonderful, delicately scented, nongreasy hair dressing did wonders with my hair. It made it longer, straighter and more silky than it had ever before. It enabled me to dress it in becoming styles that increased my stage charm. Soon, instead of being my least attractive feature, my hair became my most admired physical asset and since that day has always been compliments. Now HiJa Quinine Hair Dressing is my most highly prized beauty aid."

PAGE THREE VIRGINIA SEGREGATION SUIT FILED Street, Northwest, which Frank N. and Lillian M. Sampalik sought to tell to Russell K. Lyle, a letter carrier, of 1841 Fourth Street, Northwest, Justice A. A. Hoehling granted an injunction on the authority of the Count of Appeals decision on June 1, 1925. In the case involving No. 77 Randolph Street, Northwest, however, which was conveyed to Edgar T. Newton, Mrs. Sarah P. Newton and Robert H. Peterson, Chief Justice Walter H. McCoy refused to grant a mandatory injunction compelling them to vacate the premises. They moved into the property before the injunction was caught. Chief Justice McCoy took the position that mandatory injunctions ought not to be granted until final hearing unless the situation indicates an absolute necessity for their use in the preservation of the rights of the parties. No such necessity existed in that case, he said. Attorney George E. C. Hayes, who is representing the defendants in these cases, contends that these covenants are an unlawful restraint on alienation and contrary to the public policy of the United States. The courts, he says, have never passed upon the question of these covenants being an unlawful restraint on alienation. When the courts reach these cases for trial, it is probable that the Bloomingdale section will have become occupied almost entirely by colored people, as was S Street, between New Hampshire Avenue and Eighteenth Street, Northwest, when the Supreme Court of the United States refused to review a decision of the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia in the Curtis case upholding the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia in granting an injunction prohibiting the sale of property in this block to Mrs. Helen Curtis.

H. Matthews, jr., a traffic official of the road, and Mrs. Daisy Lampkin, of Pittsburg who had charge of transportation for the organization, a traffic record was broken. The train was made up of eighteen sleeping cars, two dining cars, a club car and a baggage car. It was so heavy that when the mountains of Colorado were reached, it was necessary to divide the equipment into two trains until after the great divide had been crossed. It was the longest train of first class passenger cars that has ever been chartered by a colored organization. The delegates from all of the eastern clubs were assembled in Chicago These made up the passenger list of the train. Washington was represented by Mrs. M. E. Holland, Mrs Rebecca I. Murdock and Mrs. F. Walton. Five national officers of the federation were aboard.

A. E. ROBERT H. HARRISON "Mrs. Harrison and myself have just returned from Cedar Haven," said Mr. Harrison to one of our reporters today. "We were completely overcome with the beauty of the place, the beautiful Crescent beach they speak of passed my expectations. "The same architect who constructed my cafe at 455 Florida Avenue which my friends and hundreds of patrons tell me is beautiful, is now busily engaged drawing plans for a business building which I am going to have erected on the site just purchased at Cedar Haven.

Dr. Ingram's Advice to Women Speaking from experience, I wish to call your attention to the Thyroid Gland, which causes serious troubles when affected by diseases. One of the purposes of the active principles, or hormones, of the thyroid gland is to enable the body to resist disease and Sajous was early authority that this gland is concerned in producing immunity from disease. It is probably concerned in more diseases than any other endocrine gland but it is mostly administered in the treatment of Cretininism and Myxedema. Cretininism is infantile Myxedema. Myxedema is organic hypothyroidism and is marked by mental dulness and certain physical changes. The hair is dry and brittle and falls out in large quantities; the skin is dry, puffy, alabaster-like in color; the teeth are in bad condition; impotence is common in men and amenorrhea is the rule in women; marked anemia, lowered blood pressure and lowered metabolism are noted and there is slow pulse. The thyroid gland is closely associated with the gonads, and thyroid failure is practically always associated with gonad failure. This is especially noted in women. In exophthalmic goiter, which is characterized usually by cardiac palpitation, increased rate of metabolism extreme nervousness and acidosis, the thyroid gland functions excessively Giving thyroid substance is of course contraindicated in this condition. I am always pleased to advise women how they might care more for themselves, and in so doing will result in long lives and happiness. Always come to my office to get free advice, and I will only be too glad to help you. My office is at the Whitelaw Hotel, 13th and T Streets, N.W., Washington, on the second floor.

WANTS TO BE RID OF 65 YEAR OLD HUSBAND The suit of his wife, Mrs. Amelia Green, of 1703 New Jersey Avenue, Northwest, for an absolute divorce is without merit and is due to her often expressed desire to get rid of him because he is twenty years her senior and she fears he may become a charge upon her hands because of his age and infirmities, says Jeremiah Green, age 65, of 131 Reeves Court, Northwest, in his answer to her petition filed through Attorneys George E. C. Hayes and Ernest J. Davis. Although Mr. and Mrs. Green were married 27 years ago, their married life has been interrupted with frequent separations, he reveals. They were married in 1899. After living with him for a few days, his wife disappeared, he says, and he did not see her again, until the summer of 1960 when he located her with a child that had been born to her in Maryland. She did not return to live with him until 1000, he says. They stayed at 455 P Street, Northwest, about four months, he declares, and then moved to 63 Fenton Street, Northeast. While living in Fenton Street, she went to New Jersey without his knowledge, but returned later to live with him at 15 L Street, Northwest. After staying with him at this address for a few weeks, she left him again without notice, he states, and moved to 1108 Third Street, Northwest. He succeeded in getting her to permit him to live with her at this address, he claims, but after two weeks she locked him out and contented herself with coming to see him at such times as she needed money. In 1914, when he refused to give her money unless she would live with him, she filed charges against him in the juvenile court, he admits, and the court ordered him to contribute $6 every two weeks toward the support of their only child. She returned to live with him in 1917, he states, and he rented a house at 1138 Third Street, Northwest, where they stayed until 1921. After purchasing a house at No. 1703 New Jersey Avenue, Northwest, she moved into it and would not permit him to enter until he agreed to come in as a mere lodger at the rate of $10 a week, he charges. He stayed there until December 31, 1923, he says, when she locked him out and refused to let him return. He denies her charges of drunkenness, crucify and adultery. He admits that his wife has not cohabited with him for a number of years, but denies that it is due to any discovery of any infidelity on his part and ascribes it to her often expressed hatred and contempt for him. Mrs. Green, through Attorney P. W. Frisby, charged that her husband had misconducted himself with Mrs. Elizabeth Dyer, of North Brentwood, Maryland, at various times and places. Mrs. Dyer is said to be 75 years of age. ANOTHER COUNTRY CLUB The latest country club to be organized by our group has been opened at Stow, Mass. The name of this institution of golf and other summer pleasures is the Maplewood Club. It is proposed that the club be maintained as a year-round resort. It is the first such club in Massachusetts.

Donahue to whom he was married in 1914. The bill of particulars filed August 6, charges infidelity. Albert Hendricks, a junior in a white tenant apartment house on This y-first Street, is named as co-respondent. It is alleged in the complaint that in September of 1925 the defendant moved from the joint home of the family at 3115 Sherman Avenue, taking with her the family larder and minor household supplies including table ware, and that the unexpected return of the husband to the house interrupted the apparent removal of all of the furniture. The divorce is based upon statutory charges noted in police records of the arrest and conviction of the defendant and the co-respondent on December 25. Absolute divorce is asked. There are no children. Attorney Elwood Hubert represents the complainant. PARK OFFICIALS AT COUNTRY CLIP Charles H.

TWO KNOCKOUTS IN FIGHTS AT KENILWORTH TWO KNOCKOUTS IN FIGHTS AT KENILWORTH By Fred R. Byrd Kid Woody, the dark shadow of the Government Printing Office added another name to his long list of knock-out victories, when he stopped Johnnie Bynam in round three at the Kenilworth arena Tuesday evening before 2,500 or more rabid fight fans. Though Bynam is a middle weight and Woody a welter weight and though the latter spotted the former 10 or more pounds, he was the aggressor in every round. Were it not for the fact that the referee, Charlie Short, stopped the fight in the third round in order to save Bynam's eye which had been split open by Woody in the second, we feel that Woody would have laid his man out for the full count. As it was, when the fight was stopped, Bynam's relief showed plainly in his face. He offered no protest whatever. Of twenty-six starts, Woody has to his credit twenty-three knock-outs, two decisions and one defeat. This fair measure of ring success is attributable to the highly efficient staff of trainers and advisers of his camp. Among his assistants may be found Burt Green, an outstanding fight and football trainer in this section; Al Jones, the most promising and scientific of the colored middle-weight wrestlers; the master of Sandoy's most efficient body-building exercises and Fred R. Byrd, rubber and publicity agent. Clarence Thomas and Jack Kenny gave a very good account of themselves and entertained the crowd until two and one-half rounds of alleged fighting elapsed, then Kenny took a hard tap on the button for the full count. In round two, Kenny went down for the count of eight four times but managed to get up and hold on until round three when Thomas flattened him for keeps. As the referee did not begin his count, Kenney was taken from the right feet first. EASTERN LEAGUE RACE TIGHTENS EASTERN LEAGUE RACE TIGHTENS The Eastern Colored League race tightened to such an extent during the past week that all clubs, with the exception of the Baltimore Black Sox and Brooklyn Giants, have an excellent chance to cop the pennant. The contenders took advantage of the Cuban Stars' idleness and sheared the Islanders' lead to a bare margin of five points, at the same time bunching themselves in a position where a short winning streak will place them at the end of the procession. The Bacharach Giants continue to be the sensation of the league. By taking two from the Black Sox and a pair from Hilldale, the seashore clan cloaked its record to 18 out of the last 20 games and took second place. Just a little way behind, the Lincoln Giants are thundering along, with Hildale and Harrisburg Giants in fairly close pursuit. The Giants skidded considerably in the last ten days, but still have a chance to win 1930 THOMAS WM. SMITH, Prop.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, AUGUST 13, 1926 LEDROIT TIGERS WIN TWO LEDROIT TIGERS WIN TWO By "Flash" Robeson The LeDroit Tigers continued their winning streak in the Union League by taking a double-header last Sunday. In the first game the Stonewall A. C. a plucky young team from the southeast, fell a victim after a hard battle by the score 6-4. In the nightcap the Oriental Tigers were defeated in a game filled with heavy hitting by the score 8-7. Both games were replete with both good and indifferent baseball, especially the second game. In the opener, the Stonewalls played one of the best games seen on this diamond; for six innings they held the heavy-hitting Tigers to two runs. In the seventh, the Tigers tied the score on a walk to Hope and a home-run by "Cap" Kenner and won in the eighth. The features of the game were the fielding of "Jake" Harris and B. Jefferson, for the winners and Craig and J. Brown of the losers, conected with the masterful pitching of Kaiser who relieved "Reds" Johnson in the fourth inning after the southeast kids had scored three runs, allowing them only one run, and three hits in five innings, and making them whiff the air. In the night cap both Scriver and Nickens were hit hard; the Tigers from LeDroit park out hitting the Southwest Tigers 15 to 9. "Lefty" Smith relieved Nickens in the eighth with the score 8-7 in favor of LeDroits, after hitting Smith, the Oriental first sacker, he made the next three batters strike out. Kenner, Kicks and Holmes, turned in field features, saving their pitchers from several runs being scored by brilliant catches and stops. The all-around batting of the LeDroits was the feature, the boys from LeDroit Park getting two homers and six doubles. Hope and Manley connected for two-ply blows, "Lefty" Smith getting a long hit to center, which allowed him to walk home in the first inning, scoring Davis ahead of him. Mace Jefferson hit for the circuit with the bases unoccupied.

Atlantic City, N.J.-Taking the initiative among Eastern League managers, Ed. Bolden plastered a $100 fine on Phil Cockrell and suspended him for five days when the Hildale pitcher punched Umpire Plackett in a game at the Bacharach Giants Ball Park. Bolden's version of the affair, was, "the attack was unwarranted and it is the policy of the Hildale Club, to always discourage rowdy tactics and we will not tolerate them in our ball club. As an organization we have been very lax in meteing out punishment to belligerent players who seek to intimidate umpires. In short it is a matter for our commissioners. If the officials are unfair or incompetent they should be removed. The public supports baseball for its respective sporting quality and a mixture of pugilistic display does nothing to enhance the game." COLLEGE POINT BEATS CUBAN STARS At New York, Aug. 8— HILLDALE DEFEATS HARRIS WILBERFORCE UNIUERSITY BURG GIANTS HAS GOLF COURSE HILLDALE DEFEATS HARRIS WILBERFORCE UNIUERSITY BURG GIANTS HAS GOLF COURSE Philadelphia, Aug. 5th—In a hurling duel that went twelve innings, Nimp Winters was the victor over Sam Cooper and the Hilldale Club turned back Oscar Charleston and the Harrisburg Giants by the score of 4 to 3. Each team scored a run in the first inning, then Harrisburg went out in front when Cooper aided his own cause with a single in the fourth that chased Beckwith and Gamiz over the pan. The home team again tied up matters in their turn at bat on successive singles by Thomas, Carr and Washington and Robinson's sacrifice fly to Dixon. The Daisies put over the winning counter in the twelfth when George Carr hit the left field fence for a triple and after Washington had expired, Carr scored on Robinson's slow roller along the first base line. Six snappy double 'plays' featured the contest, three by the visitors and two by the home team. Rapp Dixon featured when he captured Warfield's fly in the 7th and doubled Winters at the plate with a perfect throw to Gamiz. **Hilldale** **r** **h** **o** Briggs,rf ... 0 0 1 Warfield,2b ... 1 2 6 Mackey,c ... 0 0 2 Johnson,3b ... 0 0 1 Thomas,cf ... 1 1 1 Carr,1b ... 2 2 21 Was'gton,lf ... 0 2 0 Stevens,ss ... 0 0 3 Robinson,ss ... 0 0 3 Winters,p ... 0 1 0 **Harrisburg** **r** **h** **o** Jenkins,lf ... 1 1 1 Dixon,rf ... 0 1 3 Charleston,cf ... 0 3 7 Cannady,ss ... 0 1 4 Beckwith,3b ... 0 0 4 Jackskon,2b ... 0 2 3 Gamiz,c ... 1 3 2 Perez,1b ... 0 0 14 Cooper,p ... 0 1 1 Totals .. 4 8 36| Totals .. 31 15 Two out when winning run scored.

The course is modern in every respect and is under the control of the Tawawa Golf Club which was organized by Dr. H. Aubrey Lane, veterinarian surgeon; J. L. Simms, secretary to the president; R. B. Hickman, postmaster; Professor E. Champ Warrick; T. C. Carter, executive secretary of the C.N. and I Department and Rev. Conrad Lowe. They have a nine-hole course, with holes that range in yardage from 207 to 450 yards. The course is in a nice location, being on the Columbia Pike. Wilberforce, now, like the larger schools, can boast the playing of this very popular game. While the students for social reasons are not allowed membership, they have, however, the privilege to participate in the playing. They may, though, be allowed to become associate members. Later this phase of sport may be inculcated in the curriculum as a sport activity, or the students may organize a junior organization. Dr. Lane is president, J. L. Simms, secretary; R. B. Hickman, treasurer, and T. C. Carter, keeper of the greens.

A Charleston contest is being featured as the special Saturday night draw. The show is billed under the title of "Dicieland Stars." HERE AND THERE HERE AND THERE The Creole Revue is the name of the combination playing the Roseland cabaret in Asbury Park, N.J. Gus Smith, whose illness occasioned the withdrawal of his "Hello Dixie" company from the road last spring, has gone into vaudeville with Tommy Nichols. The team is presenting "Dumb and Lucky" with both working under cork. Michella, who with Lafayette has been operating a small circus in the Canadian Northwest, is back at his Saskatoon headquarters for two weeks prior to taking on two months of fain engagements. The lay off is occasioned by virtue of Michella having absorbed his partner's interest in the show. He announces a two-car rail-travel show next season. Claude Hopkins and his band are at the Smile-Awhile Inn, Asbury Park, working with the revue that Toussaint Duer has staged for the patronage of resort visitors. It is largely a Washington outfit. The Club Alabam unit headed by Abbie Mitchell is going on the Keith time. A new outfit is being assembled to replace the floor show in the club. Donald Heywood, musical director of the Whitney and Tutt show, has been in New York for the past two weeks planning for the rehearsals of the new production "Blue Moon" which goes into rehearsals after the close of the local engagement. Mr. Heywood watched the performance of the show on Monday night from a seat in the audience. The Republic Theatre has apparently hit its stride, if one may judge from the week-end business manager Sanford recorded last week. The house will run a series of repeat offerings of films that have been successfully shown in the theatre. Twelve big films are scheduled for these repeats during August. The Lincoln Theatre, Kansas City, Mo., featured a twenty-piece orchestra in a symphony program with a Lon Chaney picture during the week of the Madame Walker Agents' convention.

"RAINBOW CHASERS" Whitney and Tutt, the musical comedy brothers who have weathered the storms of many theatrical seasons, but who bob up with dependable regularity, are again in the Howard Theatre for this week. "Rainbow Chasers" is what they call their show this time, but it would have been as acceptable under any title, for it was just one of those modern hit and bit productions that gives scant regard to a book or plot—the prevalent style in musical comedy circles) being to amuse with taxing the mind to determine what is all about. The boys were as usual—one dapper and stupping and Homer doing his normal comedy. A tall boy supplemented Homer's efforts at laugh proxoking, and he, too, delivered. The company had a trio of singing girls that went over big; and a comedy quartette that sang a medley of lines from old song numbers with excellent results in the way of laughter and this, no doubt set many an old boy and girl to reminiscing. There was a good chorus of neat looking girls whose shapely forms were all the more attractive for being sheathed in white silk tights. This was refreshing after a deluge of husky knees with many shows this season. The cotumes were nice, well fitted and disclosed taste. All in all, it was a good tabloid. Then there were added attractions interspersed. The Sidney Easton trio, two men and a woman blues singer, simply stormed the house. Easton is funny. That big girl can sing and has personality, and the straight boy knows what to do with a ukelele and a violin. More of the latter would not hurt. He has a nice little tenor voice, but sang a bit too softly for the big house. However, those who heard him, were highly pleased. The surprise booking, however, was Billy King with a new partner and his slow philosophic comment on ancient history and early classics. The new partner, unfamiliar with Billy's working style, hampered his stuff a bit, but with more work, the kid will prove a good successor for Marshall Rogers who for many years was the feeder to the veteran of the profession. A good film completed a program that was uninterrupted as has been the misfortune of some previous attractions. COLLIER PREPARING NEW EDITION OF "SILAS The Silas Green People are busy every day now rehearsing the new production that will be offered to their public with the official opening of the winter season. Sam Gray and Walter Robinson had the book prepared before the show had entered West Virginia where it has been playing for the past month. Robinson has just returned from a trip to New York where he purchased a complete new wardrobe equipment for the progressive manager of the outdoor institution. The show enters Tennessee next week and thereafter makes a series of quick jumps into the cotton territory where it has always taken top money. Lulu Whidby, known wherever colored shows have played in the United States, died after a six weeks' illness in Richmond, Va., on August 5. She was last engaged with the Joe Bright Company in a stock company at the Hippodrome Theatre in that city.

State Street, Chicago, II GREEN" J.A.JACKSON'S THEATRICAL PAGE NEGRO ARTISTS DISCUSSED BY BELASCO NEGRO ARTISTS DISCUSSED BY BELASCO He Tells the World at Large What We Already Know In an article, entitled "Tomorrow's Stage and the Negro," appearing in the August issue of Liberty, David Belasco has the following to say about Negro artists: "The theatre of tomorrow must reckon with a new force—the race of Ham! "I say this in all sincerity out of my 50 years of labor for the American stage. The Negro, from today onward, will compel recognition through the sheer power of his instinctive mime talent! "I will go further and declare that no race, even the sorrow-swept Jew, can surpass the Negro for instinctive stage ability. The same receptivity that drove their African ancestors to battle frenzy at the sound of war drums has been translated by generations of contact with civilization into terms of emotion expression, delicate and sensitive in the extreme. "And as a climax to my prediction I believe that another decade will see a Negro theatre in which we of the Caucasian race will witness a surprising development of this hitherto dormant nature gift. The Negro with his submerged, instinctive voice is a natural actor. He has a sufficient background of tragedy to make him fertile ground in which to implant the seeds of splendid acting." Mr. Belasco is perhaps the foremost theatrical producer in America, He has written and staged several scores of successful dramas. The sensation of the current season in New York is his first venture in a show with colored performers, "Lulu Belle." In the article in Liberty, Mr. Belasco discusses the cast of "Lula Belle," giving the names of a dozen or twenty. While the show stars two white performers, 113 colored actors fill the minor roles. The show has drawn more than $20,000 weekly since early last December and bids fail to continue the run indefinitely. It is upon these facts that the importance of Mr. Belasco's statements rest. In addition to what has been quoted above, Mr. Belasco, in common with most, white persons who write about the Negro, could not refrain from some references to craps. Also, some dialect was placed in the mouths of some of his cast whom we know to be articulators of very good English and of the accepted Americanese style. However, in the cast of more than a hundred selected for types, with the emphasis on appearance rather than upon their histrionic abilities, there are no doubt some that would talk just as he has indicated. This defect is rapidly being corrected by our college and high school dramatic classes and the little theatre movements. Mr. Belasco's manner of selection encouraged the finding of the uncultured that is in his show. Mr. Belasco arrogates to himself considerable credit for the selection of his cast, although Anne Wolter, of the National Ethiopian Art Theatre, passed upon the candidates. Mr. Belasco may be forgiven for that, though, as it too, is a common show fault—this thing of claiming all credit of discovery. Mr. Belasco deserves great credit for his candor in mausing our actors. The prestige of his name behind a production that provided even so much opportunity as "Eulu Belle" affords has been of tremendous value to our aspiring dramatic actors, albeit he had not the courage to give them the stellar chances he himself knew they merited. He no doubt felt that he was, in this matter, restricted by popular public opinion, so he is not to be greatly blamed for that. The economic value of his employment of more than a hundred people at excellent salaries has a value not to be despised in the summing up of results. Let us hope that David Belaseo sees fit to sustain his prophecy with another piece that will in due time give full play to the talents of Evelyn Preer Edna Lewis Thomas, Zadie Jackson Lilian Fairly, Mattie Wilkes, Robert Garbin, Ollie Burgovne and Fred Miller, all of whom had already established their right to a recognized place in the theatre before "Lulu Relle" was launched. If not these the many younger ones that are annually added to their ranks. A LESSON FOR THE C. A. U. IN LATEST EQUITY VICTORY The Actors Equity Association has just won a victory over the Shubert producers in the matter of nine performances per week. Eight shows are regarded as the normal week for equity shows. In Chicago, and some other cities, it is customary to present nine shows each week in a legitimate theatre, as the town permits Sunday shows. Equity protested that an additional one-eighth of a week's salary should be given all performers. The producers contested this, but Equity having control of virtually all of the artists in musical comedy and drama won, and won by pure negotiation without even a hint of striking. Members enough and money enough in the treasury to care for them when idle is what gets results when placed in the hands of competent officials. Equity has been more than a dozen years reaching a place where it could do this. Big things are not accom- THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY.

The Whitman Sisters show will occupy the theater for the week beginning August 16. "Get Set" is the title of the vehicle that serves to present the variegated talents of the Whitman girls. Another card feature of the show is Princess Wee Wee, the most diminutive colored woman in the whole of the show business. She was for many years a featured attraction with Barnum and Bailey and the Ringling Circus. This cute little bit of humanity is supported by "Pops" and Billy, a pair of clever youngsters as ever graced a stage; and, those kids can dance. Then comes the dancing of Alice who duplicates every step done by our acknowledged dance leaders, plus some steps that are original with this lithe, graceful girl. This is another of those shows that the editor of the page from definite personal knowledge can recommend in great terms. The house management has done well in this booking.

"SHUFFLIN' SAM FROM ALABAM' HEADED THIS WAY Shufflin' Sam from Alabama," the Gardner and Barton all-colored musical comedy which has been meeting with considerable success on tour since last season, is booked to applaud as a presentation in Keith-Albee and Wilmer and Vincent houses, beginning with the early part of October, according to George L. Barton, manager of the show, Barton, in the course of a call at the offices of The Billboard in Cincinnati where the show played this season at the Roosevelt Theater, with G. C. Travis, agent of the show, said that the musical comedy had been bucking all opposition, even including the heat, all along the line, and that the many repeat dates had invariably drawn bigger houses than the first engagements. The show which will be recalled by Washington theatre patrons as the attraction that stood 'em up at the Howard Theater last autumn, returns to the house for another week's engagement, beginning August 30. It is the heaviest billed colored attracton tour, and it is one of the few shows that sustains its billing. Johnnie Woods, sensational colored ventriboquist, and a bucking-mule comedy specialty are among the unusual features of the production.
