CITIZENS FIGHT
PREVENT POOL
OPENING IN
Charging that Captain Guy E. Burlingame of the second police precinct misled residents in the vicinity of Florida Avenue and Second Street, Northwest, Dr. Reuben M. West and John T. Rischer have asked Proctor L. Dougherty, District Commissioner, to revoke a license for a poolroom at that corner. According to Dr. West and Mr. Rischer, sometime ago when a report became current that a poolroom would be established there, the residents circulated a petition protesting against the issuance of a license. This petition was signed by all of the residents in that section and was mailed to the Board of Commissioners, August 31, 1926.
Prior to the circulation of this petition, Captain Burlingame is said to have made the statement that under
MAN WHO KILLED INDICTED ON SECOND DE
An indictment charging second-degree murder was returned by the grand jury last Thursday against Roy Otis Henson for the death of his wife, Elsie Henson on August 2, last.
The indictment is in two counts. The first count charges that Henson used a pick handle in committing the crime. The second count is identical except that it sets out that the exact identity of the hard, blunt instrument used is unknown to the grand jurors.
Henson is alleged to have beat his wife to death in the janitor's quarters in the Irvington apartment house, 1731 T Street. Northwest, where they lived, about 7 o'clock in the morning on August 2, last. After committing the crime, he is said to have gone to his other employment. He returned to his living quarters about noon and telephoned the eighth precinct police station that he had found his wife murdered. After questioning, he was taken to police headquarters where he confessed his guilt.
The murder was the result of an all night quarrel over the payment of the board and lodging of their two children, who were being taken care of by Mrs. Bessie Shaw of 2456 Ontario Road, Northeast. Mrs. Henson had given her husband money with which to pay their board and lodging in full. He had only paid it in part. Henson, however, accused his wife of running around with another man.
At the time of the murder, one of the children, who were made motherless, was two years old and the other was only three months. They are now with his mother in the country in Maryland.

no conditions would he consent to the establishment of a poolroom at this corner.
On Tuesday morning when the residents saw pool tables being taken into the place, Dr. West and Mr. Rischer went to see Captain Burlingame and were advised by him, they say, that the license had been issued sometime ago and nothing could be done until the time for its renewal in November.
They went to see the license commissioner, Wade H. Coombs, and were shown the application for the license, and found on it a typewritten endorsement over the signature of Captain Burlingame to the effect that the residents had no objections to the issuance of the license. They sk the Board of Commissioners to revoke the license on the ground that it was improperly procured.

CHARGE OF
DEGREE MURDER
OHIO BOY ELKS HELPED, GETS A SECOND REPRIEVE
Columbus, September 15—Gov. Donahay again stayed the hand of death last Friday and Emmanuel Ross, Cleveland murderer, was assured another week to live.
The chief executive granted Ross, who was to be executed last Friday night for the murder of a Cleveland shopkeeper during a robbery of his place, a reprieve until September 18, in conformity with a stay of execution granted by the Cuyahoga Country Court of Appeals Thursday, September 9, but which had not reached Warden P. E. Thomas of the 'penitentiary until late yesterday.
When the governor was informed of the warden's intentions to proceed with the execution he got into communication by telephone with the Court of Appeals in Cleveland and received official verification from the clerk that a stay had been granted by the court in order to permit Ross' case being taken again to the Supreme Court for review on the question of whether Ross' conviction was legal because he had not first been given a hearing in the Juvenile Court. He is alleged to have been only 17 years old when he committed the crime. Both the Common Pleas and Appellate Courts have held that it was not necessary to give him a hearing in the Juvenile Court; but the Supreme Court will now pass upon the question.
Ross was given a stay of execution while the annual convention of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks was in session in Cleveland, when a committee, headed by Perry W. Howard, Grand Legal Adviser, intervened in the case.
AUTHORITIES ARE INQUIRING INTO PRIEST'S ABDUCTION
AUTHORITIES ARE INQUIRING INTO PRIEST'S ABDUCTION
Norfolk, Va., Sept. 15—The special grand jury convened at Princess Anne Courthouse Monday morning to investigate the kidnapping two weeks ago of the Rev. Vincent D. Warren, Catholic priest of Norfolk, and adjourned without taking action following a two-hour session to meet again September 30.
Seven witnesses were examined during the brief session that followed Judge B. D. White's charge to the jurors, in which he denounced the "dastardly assault," as he termed the abduction of the priest.
The adjournment was ordered, it was said, so as to give more time for collection of more information which might lead to the indentification of the hooded band that spirited the priest away into the country.
Father Warren was the first witness. He recited the story of his kidnapping from the time he was taken by the masked and armed men from his automobile while his band of colored boys from St. Joseph's

Charles E. Mitchell, of Institute, W. Va. is being mentioned in connection with the vacancy in the United States ministership to Liberia, which was caused by the resignation of the Rev. Solomon Porter Hood. Mr. Mitchell is a certified public accountant and a banker, and it is believed that he would be acceptable to the Liberian republic. It is likely that his appointment will be urged by Senator G. D. Goff, Republican, of West Virginia. Mr. Mitchell and his wife have just returned from a European tour. He is at present in Institute, W. Va.
Academy was playing in the yard of a Negro home nearby. Charley Woodhouse, colored, in whose yard the band was playing when the white-robbed figures spirited the priest away, was another witness. Woodhouse, it was understood, was to reveal certain things to the jury about how he had been warned ten days before the kidnapping not to let the priest bring the band into the county.
Woodhouse had delivered the warning to Father Warren, but the priest disregarded it.

ACCIDENTAL DEATH SAYS JURY
A verdict of accidental death was returned by a coroner's jury Monday in the inquest into the fatal burning of Daniel Nixon, 18, of 704 Second Street, N.W., employed at the Mt. Vernon Automobile Supply Co., on Pennsylvania Avenue, whose clothes were ignited Friday while filling an automobile with gasoline in front of the filling station.
Testimony was that the gasoline became ignited from a match which had been used to light a cigarette, fire from which kindled the fumes of the gasoline and set blazing the can of gas Nixon was carrying. When his clothes became ignited the youth ran across the street, blazing, and was thrown into the large cooling chest filled with ice water and huge crocks of orange beverage in the rear of a soft drink establishment. This extinguished the flames, but he died four hours later at Emergency Hospital.

SAYS SHE MARRIED AT 14, NOW ASKS FOR DIVORCE ON GROUNDS OF CRUELTY
Mrs. Helen M. Blackstone, a minor of 2448 Ninth Street, Northwest, has filed suit in the District Supreme Court, against her husband, Oscar W. Blackstone, for a limited divorce. She charges cruelty and desertion.
Through her mother, Mrs. Loretta A. Lyons, who brings the suit for her, she alleges that she is mentally sub-normal and susceptible to the influence of others and that at the age of 14 she was persuaded to marry without the knowledge or consent of her parents. Her husband procured the marriage license by giving her age as 19 years, she says.
She lived with her husband's sister, Olive Brown, from January 1, 1923, to August 6, 1924, when her sister-in-law ordered her to leave the house, she claims, and her husband refused to provide a home for her.
On November 10, 1924, she filed a bill for a limited divorce and was awarded the sum of $40 a month temporary alimony. When the case was

DR. JAS. FLETCHER SUES FOR ACCOUNTING IN $67,500 APARTMENT HOUSE SALE
James R. Fletcher, of 1417 U St. Northwest, has filed suit in the District Supreme Court against P. L. and Wallace C. Adams for an accounting in the transaction involving the purchase of two apartment houses at 2201 and 2203 Champlain Street, Northwest.
When the deal for these two apartment houses was partly closed on May 15, last, says Dr. Fletcher, who purchased them for the sum of $67,500, there was no adjustment of interest on existing trusts, taxes and rents. Pending the closing of the transaction, he gave the defendants two fourth trusts on the two houses to cover the equities of P. L. Adams in each house, Dr. Fletcher claims.
KLAN PARADE PROVES DULL AND TIRESOME
Robed, but unmasked, more than 11,000 Ku Klux Klanmen straggled through Pennsylvania Avenue last Monday while an apathetic crowd looked on.
Everyone of the marchers wore an official dune-cap—high and white, and running up to a sharp point at the top—and the white night shirt which is the official costume. Those who share in the spoils—the Keagles and Dragons—wore robes of orange and crimson, blue, black and green, with cone-shaped, pointed hats of the same color.
The typical klansman was lean and hungry-looking. His appearance was that of the "hill-billy" of North Carolina, the "cracker" of Georgia, the "cajan" of Alabama. Ignorance and superstition were written on his countenance.
A large part of Washington's colored population was in the crowd of spectators.
All in all, the parade was dull and boresome. After the first half hour, the crowd thinned out.
EX-COP NABBED AS THIEF
Newton Birton Blackstone, 718 Second Street, Southwest, an ex-policeman, was held for the Grand Jury Monday on a charge of grand larceny He was arrested Saturday and accused of stealing the auto of William E. Hollbert, 121 W Street, Northwest.
WOMAN HIT BY CAR
Lucile Matthews, 29 years old, 3026 M Street, Northwest, received a fractured collarbone last Sunday night when she was struck by a Capital Traction Co. street car while crossing M Street at Twenty-ninth Street Northwest. She was treated at Emergency Hospital, and was later arrested by police of the seventh precinct and charged with intoxication.

OS OF CRUELTY
ready for trial on February 1, 1926,
she says, her husband asked her to
resume marital relations and upon
his promise to provide a suitable
home for her she agreed. Instead of
keeping his promise, she charges, he
took her to the home of a relative
who was engaged in selling intoxicating liquor on the premises.
At the demand of her mother, she
states, on April 1, last, he secured
suitable living quarters at 1721 Oregon
Avenue, Northwest, but refused
to provide her with food and clothing.
He deserted her on July 19, last,
she claims.
On account of her mental condition, she alleges, she is unable to secure employment. Her husband, she claims, is employed as a laborer at the city post office at a salary of $1,450 a year. She asks the court for temporary and permanent alimony, counsel fees and a limited divorce. She is represented by Attorneys Boardman and Smith.
CHER SUES FOR IN $67,500 HOUSE SALE
A misunderstanding arose regarding the apartment house at No. 2201 Champplain Street, Dr. Fletcher aleges, and he reconveyed it to the defendants with the fourth trust he made against it.
Dr. Fletcher asks the court to require the defendants to account for and pay over to him all sums found to be due him. He also asks that the defendants be required to set forth the exact sum that should be returned to him in consideration of the reconveyance of No. 2203 Champlain Street and what disposition they made of $1,400 he gave to P. L. Adams to be used in connection with the deal and of the fourth trust on the apartment house he reconveyed to them.
SUES HUSBAND FOR
SUPPORT
Although her husband, Herbert W. Brown, carries mail and plays in a jazz orchestra, he is contributing little or nothing to her support, Mrs. Lillie B. Brown, of 944 Westminster Street, Northwest, tells the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia. She is suing her husband for maintenance. In her petition, Mrs. Brown says that when she and her husband were just married and he was employed in the Government service at a small salary, he cheerfully contributed to the support of his family. After he secured employment as a mail carrier at a salary of at least $150 a month, she charges, he refused to provide for his family and he and she had constant squabbles over money matters.
He began to drink and gamble, she states, and he would remain out at night until early morning without giving her any explanation. When she remonstrated with him about his conduct, she claims, he retaliated by refusing to provide adequately for his family.
On April 17, 1926, she alleges, there was an altercation between them and he left home. He promised to pay the grocery and milk bills and allow her a reasonable sum each day for her support, Mrs. Brown says, but after making one or two payments he stopped and now contributes little or nothing toward support of his family.
Mr. Brown is living at 1326 U Street, Northwest, his wife states, and is riding about town in an automobile which he has purchased since abandoning his family.
Her father, she says, made the first payment on the premises at No. 944 Westminster Street. Northwest, where they lived after their marriage, and told the newly married couple that they could have the property if they would make the payments on it. The property was put in the name of Mrs. Brown. Although rooms were rented and the revenue applied to the payments, Mrs. Brown says, she was forced to call upon her father for assistance and he made several trips here to talk with his son-in-law about the matter. Her husband, she says, promised to do his part but never did.
The couple was married July 20, 1921, in the District of Columbia. There are two children, John Herbert Brown. 4 years old, and Lenora Elizabeth Brown, 2 years old.

was also charged with disorderly conduct after she is alleged to have hit Officer Spotwood Graveley on the head.
The disturbance is said to have begun when Ogle followed an automobile in which a man and woman were riding. The woman, according to Ogle, began to throw out jars. At Second and H Streets, Southwest, he said, he jumped from the car with a few jars in her arms. At First and H Streets, he says that he forehead the car to the curb, got in and told the man to drive to the fourth precinct. Someone hit him, Ogle claims, from outside the car, the driver ran away, and he engaged in a running fight with his assailant after losing his gun in the car. It was then, he says, that the mob attacked him. He managed to make his way to a patrol box and call the reserves.
hip. Both the policeman and Mitchell were taken to Casualty Hospital and treated by Dr. Joseph Rogers. Mitchell died an hour later. Boxwell took Bell, who is alleged to have joined in the argument, to the Sixth Precinct and charged him with intoxication.
MARGARET MURRAY WASHINGTON VOCATIONAL SCHOOL
The Margaret Murray Washington Vocational School offers a splendid opportunity to girls for preparation for future life. Provision is made for instructing them in trades and in home-keeping, attributes of worth for all womanhood. Often a girl has not found herself in the traditional school, perhaps she has latent ability which is only awaiting an awakening. Perhaps she is a girl whose life has not been easy, but who realizes the need of further training. This school spells opportunity for all. It is anxious to help every girl to find herself.
It is worthy of note that the academic subjects have been so standardized that the courses outlined give the necessary mental development and power to enable the pupils to continue their academic training in the senior high school. This gives the school an added advantage in that the girl who is anxious for a trade and who desires to enter the business world at the completion can do so. On the other hand, the girl who would like to have a trade, to know how to keep a home, and who desires to continue her education is fully equipped to do so. Thoughtful parents and guardians will give such training serious consideration. Surely a girl thus equipped is better prepared for life than she would otherwise be.
The school desires to call attention to the requirements for entrance: The applicant must be fourteen years of age and above, and have completed the Sixth Grade. The trades offered are dressmaking, millinery, art crafts, homekeeping, and cafeteria management. With these trades are correlated mathematics, English, history, civics, geography, music, physical training. Such training is certainly advantageous. A visit to the school will give further information. Study your girl, her aptitude, and her ability. If you believe that she will be better prepared for life's experiences by such training, send her to the Margaret Murray Washington Vocational School and upon the completion of the work there, let her continue her education in the senior high school.

THE CASTLE
Detective Howard Ogle, of the fourth precinct, who has a mania for kicking down doors in serving warrants for alleged liquor, was attacked by a man whom he attempted to arrest last Saturday in the vicinity of First and H Streets, Southwest. During the fight Ogle lost his pistol and black jack.
As Ogle's assailant got the better of him in the fight, the crowd that had gathered began to throw bricks at him. Ogle was treated at the police clinic for severe bruises.
Police reserves were called to quell the disturbance. Ogle directed them to 307 I. Street, Southwest, where they arrested Beatrice Johnson, 29, and Harriet Ward, 23, both of the I Street address. They were charged with illegal possession. Police say they found 204 quarts of alleged whisky in the yard. Harriet Ward

POLICEMAN EXONORATED
Policeman C. L. Smith, white, of the sixth precinct, was exonerated Tuesday by a coroner's jury of the killing Sunday night of Arthur Mitchell, 85, of 68 Myrtle Street, Northeast.
The policeman riddled the body of his victim with bullets, five shots taking effect. The coroner's jury held that Smith shot Mitchell in self defense. According to witnesses, Smith and Policeman John F. Boxwell came upon Mitchell, his wife and Raymond Bell, 703 Fourth Street, Northwest, engaged in an altercation at Second and I Street, Northwest. The woman fleed to New Jersey Avenue and I Street, Northwest, but her husband followed and threatened her with a knife, it is claimed.
When Smith and Boxwell arrived the latter took hold of Mitchell and told him he was under arrest. Mitchell, it is claimed, broke loose and attacked Smith with the knife, slashing him on the arm and searing an artery. Smith ordered him to drop the knife, he avers, but Mitchell again started at him and again was ordered to drop the knife. Smith drew his pistol and fired six times.
Two of the bullets struck Mitchell in the chest just above the heart, two in the abdomen and one in the left

Wilberforce, Ohio, September 15.—Funeral services for Dr. William Sanders Scarborough, who died last Thursday night at his home at the age of 72, were held Sunday afternoon.
Dr. Scarborough had been in failing health for the past two years. It began to decline while he was connected with the Department of Agriculture in Washington, D.C., doing special work among the farmers particularly in northern Virginia. He became critically ill about two weeks ago, and his death was expected.
Dr. Scarborough was President Emeritus of Wilberforce University and one of the leading educators in the United States. He was the first member of his race to prepare a Greek textbook suitable for university use. One of his Greek books was used for a long time as a text book at Yale University.
He was born in Macon, Ga., February 16, 1845. He prepared at Atlanta University. Graduating in 1875 from Oberlin with the degree of Bachelor of Arts, he received his Master's degree there three years later. In 1877 he became professor of classical Greek at Wilbenforce. In 1895 he became vice president and head of the classical department. In 1908 he was elected president and served in that capacity for 12 years. After his resignation, he became connected with the Department of Agriculture by appointment of the late President Warren G. Harding. Dr. Scarborough was the author of First Lessons in Greek, Theory and Functions of the Thematic Vowel in the Greek Verb, Our Political Status, Birds of Aristophanes, A Theory of Interpretation, and also many articles on Negro folklore, the Negro question, classical philology and archaeological subjects. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Saul H. Scarborough.

PROF. W. S. SCARBOROUGH
DR. WOOD LEAVES VIRGINIA SEMINARY
Lynchburg, Va., Sept. 16—Dr. R. C. Woods, president of Virginia Theological Seminary and College, has accepted appointment as Director of Religious and Social Research of the Negro, with headquarters at Columbus, Ohio, under the auspices of a special commission.
A liberal fund has been provided to make a special study of the religious and social phases of Negro life, dealing especially with the Negro who has migrated to the great centers, taking in Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati, St. Louis and other mid-western cities.
In addition to the study of these problems, it is contemplated to render financial assistance to worthy church organizations that have established themselves in their respective communities as constructive working units, teaching proper ideals of religion, life and citizenship. It is planned to encourage industry, thrift and conservative teachings as opposed to the rise of bolshevism and socialism in congested American cities.
Added Buildings
In the fifteen years of Dr. Woods' connection, Virginia Theological Seminary has made great progress. Comin to the school when there was one incomplete building, he leaves it with six, four of them are large brick buildings, two of them excellent residences, one a president's home and another a teacher's cottage.

ROAMERS TO STAGE BIGGEST
AFFAIR OF THE SEASON
The Roamer Athletic Club of this city which so successfully staged a dance and Charleston contest at the New Lyric hall on September 9, will give a "journey dance" on October 8, at the Murray Palace Casino. Many days before the formal announcement was made as to the exact date, the patrons of this club were pledging their loyal support to this affair. And no wonder! For the Murray Casino is one of the most beautiful dance halls in the country, regardless of color. Just imagine—a floor as smooth as glass, beautiful soft colored lights, a circular floor with a semibalcony effect so that the dancers and on-lookers will not conflict, a baby grand piano of the best tone, a spurtting fountain in the center of the mirror-like floor, clean and sanitary rest rooms, and a hundred, other things that insure a perfect night with dance comfort, and you dancing to the rhythmic strains of the Capital City Serenaders! The whole town is going to turn out on the eighth.

She has been connected with the public schools of the District of Columbia since 1876. She served as principal of the Banneker School from 1887 to 1896, and of Garnet School from 1896 to 1897 when she was appointed director of primary instruction.
Mrs. W. C. Mayer, a demonstration teacher, was promoted to director of primary instruction in place of Miss Merritt. Mrs. Mayer is a graduate of the Miner Normal School and Howard University. She has been a teacher in the elementary schools since 1915. She was appointed a demonstration teacher in the Garrison School on September 1, 1925.
Miss Shadd retired upon her own application. She had been connected with the public schools of the District of Columbia for a period of 46 years. Her first appointment was on September 1, 1877. In the late eighties she was made principal of the John F. Cook School, and on September 1, 1892, she became principal of the Lincoln School. July 1, 1908. Miss Shadd was promoted to supervising principal of the Twelfth Division, and on July 8, was transferred to the eleventh division in that capacity.

Compliments
"To spend a half-century in honorable labor is a work of distinction in itself. But where that labor has been, as in the cases now before the Board of Education, spent in educating the youth of America, the distinction is all the more unusual, unique, and peculiarly significant. Such is the record of both Miss Shadd and Mr. Nalle.
"The splendid school organization in Divisions 10-13, the fine esprit de corps among our education employees, the successful careers of thousands of former students and graduates of the public schools of Washington, are after all the best evidence of the manner in which these two faithful public servants have discharged their duties."

HOWARD SQUAD BEGINS PRACTICE
HOWARD SQUAD BEGINS PRACTICE
The Howard University football squad began training Thursday morning under Coaches Louis L. Watson, Raymond Dokes and Edgar Long. Twenty-six candidates reported last Wednesday. Others are coming in daily. The early ones were mostly new men, who are in hopes of winning places. They are not impressive and their chances of becoming regulars are slim. Only three of the Howard University letter-men of last year will not be on the squad this year. They are Deck McLean, a quarterback; Raymond Dokes, a tackle and captain of the 1924 team, and Edgar Long, an end and captain of the 1925 team McLean is not returning to school this year. The two captains are assisting Coach Watson this year, both having played four years on the Howard varsity.
Scholastic difficulties, however, may make berths for new men, Biff Martin, center; Louis Campbell, and Dennis Simpson, ends, and Dan Brown, back, must straighten themselves out with their deans before they will be eligible. Red Jefferson, Pete Tyson and James Dillard are having financial difficulties. But all of them are expected to be ready to play in the opening game.
The coaches have a striking nucleus in Hall Webb and Kelly, guards; Price, tackle; Sallie, end; Coles and Payna, quarterbacks; Carter, Dodson and Ross, halfbacks. Each of these is an asset, and if two or three of the new men develop into stars, Howard will have a great eleven.
Vernon B. Smith, tackle, is captain of the 1926 team. He is working out daily with the squad. This is his fourth year on the team. He came from Simmons College, Louisville, Ky.
There will be no game this year on October 2. Morgan College, which had the opening game on the corresponding Saturday last year, would not accept. The first game this year will be with Livingstone College in the new Howard stadium on October 9.
Dr. Emmett J. Scott, athletic business manager, stated today that all games, including the Howard-Lincoln game on Thanksgiving Day would be played in the Howard stadium. The stadium has a normal seating capacity of 13,500. Temporary seats may be added increasing the seating capacity to approximately 30,000. Crowds witnessing the Howard-Lincoln game have never exceeded, 25,000, according to official figures.
The Howard football schedule is as follows:
Oct. 9—Livingstone at Howard.
Oct. 16—Morehouse at Howard.
Oct. 23—West Virginia Collegiate at Howard.
Sept 6—Pisau at Howard.
Nov. 6—Howard at Wilberforce.
Nov. 13—Howard at Atlanta Uni

LINCOLN GIANTS BREAK EVEN WITH HILLDALE
New York, Sept. 13.—The Lincoln
Giants broke even with the Hilldale
Club in their double-header in the
Eastern League before a big crowd
at the Catholic Protectory Oval yesterday. The Giants lost the first game
by a score of 8 to 1, but displayed
plenty of hitting power in the second
battle, which they won by a score of
11 to 1.
Gisentaner, a southpaw, pitched a
meat game against the Hilldales in
the second game, holding the visitors
to five scattered hits. T. Gee, Young,
Hudspeth and Gisentaner hit home
runs.

HOWARD POOL TO CLOSE
The Howard swimming pool under the direction of lifeguards Thomas Hughes, in charge, Thomas Jackson and Ralph Wright, is preparing to close its banner year.
During the season the pool has been the daily mees for large numbers of enthusiastic youth from all sections of the city. From 300 to 1695 boys and girls have received personal and intensive instructions daily. Last week lifeguard Wright, who is an accredited National, Red Cross Examiner, gave tests in swimming and awarded Red Cross buttons to seventy-three, including twenty-nine swimmers and forty-four beginners.
The lifeguards are constantly adding new incentives to popularize the pool and plan many novel and attractive features for next season. Mrs. Susie Root Rhodes, Superintendent of Playgrounds, is doing all she can within the limited appropriation to improve the conditions at this pool.
HAMPTON SEASIDERS BEGIN FOOTBALL PRATICE
By James B. Clarke
Hampton, Va., Sept. 16—The Hampton Institute football team under the tutelage of Coaches Glideon E. Smith and Charles H. Williams began training at the institute Wednesday for its fall campaign.
The coaches are somewhat optimistic as to the prospects of becoming 1926 champions, despite the fact that the old team was cut to pieces by graduation and the workings of the academic eligibility rule. They realise, however, that the road will be rougher than it was last year because of the increased size of the C.I.A.A. and the playing ability of competing
Veteran Players Lost
The games played this year will be without the services of "Stieky" Jacobs, star quarterback of two championship football teams; Osear Pindle, two-time captain, All-American and All-C.I.A.A. center; James Alexander, All-American and All-C.I.A.A. guard; Elmer Fortune, fighting guard and substitute center; Dunlap Jones and George Davis, fast tackling ends; "Sparky" Ruffin, veteran tackle; Sammy Mansfield and Sam Scott, hard-hitting backs. The leaving of these two men will give Coaches Smith and Williams only four veterans around whom they must build another team. The men expected to return are: Captain "Wild Man" Lee, All-American tackle; "Jim" Thatcher, half-back; Buldog Williams, fullback; and Byrd, quarterback. The second string men and new material are expected to fill the gaps left open from last year.
The playing ability and gridiron knowledge of Lee in tackle position won him the captaincy of the 1988 Seasiders. "Wild Man" came to the team from Peabody High in Petersburg and made the first line-up on first try. He has held his position with ease for the last two years, being considered one of the best tackles in the game. The men have pledged their support to Lee and he expects to duplicate the championship trick this year.
Schedule is Hard
Last year Virginia Seminary reversed the dope and defeated Hampton 3-0 in their first game of the season. Seminary, again, will be the curtain raiser for Hampton's football schedule, but no chances will be taken. The home-coming game with Union promises to be the classic of C.I.A.A. football games. The schedule will be as follows:

WILBERFORCE MEN
Wilberforce, O., Sept. 18—Candidates for the 1926 Green and Gold eleven began reporting yesterday for football practice in response to the call issued by Coach Harvey C. Graves who is beginning his third year as football mentor at Wilberforce University.
While all of the men have not yet reported, Coach Graves is assured that most of his letter-men will return. His biggest task will be the development of two ends to replace Mike Woolridge, captain of last year's team, who will enter the Indiana University dental school this year, and "Country" Lewis, who graduated last June and will coach at a southern school this year.
All the old linemen will be back.
They include Sweet, Slater, Bickett,
Kyle, Russell and Captain Buchanan.
Huff, who remained out of school for
a year, is returning. Richie, who it
was thought would probably assist
Conch Taylor at Clark University,
Atlanta, GA., has decided to return.
Wu Fung Ward, highly touted player
who was an in and outer last year,
will not return.
JIMMIE ARCHIE GETS
DECISION OVER ANGE-
LOS DE SILXIO
Kid Woody Loses Decision to Gilly Dennis
By Fred R. Byrd
Jimmy Archie, lightweight flash of the 12th Street Branch Y.M.C.A. defeated Angelos De Silixia, a Filipino of the Naval Academy in the four-round curtain raiser at Helmie Miller's boxing show staged at the Severoid Baseball Park, Annapolis, Md., last Saturday night, and is now a contender for the lightweight championship of the District of Columbia.
The surprise of the evening was the game fight put up by Kid Woody of the Government Printing Office who fought Gilly Dennis, the veteran Annapolis thunderbolt. This fight should go down in Annapolis ring history as one of the fastest ever staged there. It was fast and furious and every trick of the boxing game was used by the principals. The crowd was on its feet yelling like mad, each fraction for its favorite. This same maddened crowd was brought to its senses only by the gong at the end of round six. Then there was a breathless silence as the judges and referees passed in their slips to the announcer. The announcer seemed doubtful as he walked to Dennis' corner and raised his hand as a token of victory and as he did this Kid Woody was the first to tender his congratulations to the victor, saying "Dennis, I congratulate you. You fought a good clean fight and won. I would like to meet you again."
Johnny Crutchfield, colored, champion lightweight of the U.S. Naval Reserves, issues a challenge to any one of his weight in the city to fight at the Navy Yard, Thursday, September 23, 1926. Address all answers to Fred R. Byrd, 1816 12 St., Northwest.

President Hayes Jones of the Union League has decided that the LeDroit Tigers and the Oriental Tigers must play the game over which ended a row with the Oriental Tigers leading 7 to 1 in the seventh inning. Anumpile is said to have been responsible for the trouble.

The Jack Jempsey-Gene Tunney heavyweight championship fight returns will be broadcast at the Whitehaw hotel dining room next Thursday evening from 7 to 10 p.m., according to an announcement made today by Burke and Brown, the proprietors.
LEDROIT TIGERS
INGREASE LEAD
By "Flash" Robeson
In a loosely played game the Stonewall A.C., gave the league leading LeDroit Tigers a scare by staging a great up hill battle combined with loose fielding by the Tigers and some weird pitching; Sam Lacey stopped their rally just one run short of tipping the score in the ninth innings. Reds Johnson started the game and gave a good account, until he hurt his ankle in the seventh, although he was found for a hit a inning, fast fielding saved him from being scored on except in three innings. Nickens who relieved him was very wild in the two innings he toiled and was scored on twice without a hit, he issued five free tickets. The features of the game were the hitting of Ashford for the losers, and Lewis and Kenner for the winners. Smith and Brown proved the fielding stars of the game.

Paul Robeson will be featured in a three-act comedy drama, "Black Boy" by Jim Tully and Frank Dazey, early this season.
It is an interesting and daring production. It presents the story of a Negro rising from a lowly place to a seat among the mighty. He becomes heavyweight champion of the world.
Paul Robeson, who is the star of "Black Boy," received unanimous praise of all critics when he played the name part in Eugene O'Neill's "The Emperor Jones" in London.

Los Angeles, Sept. 15.—Charles Gilpin, who came here to play the title role in the moving picture production of "Uclee Tom's Cabin," was unable to remain long enough to fill his contract with Universal. Delay in the production made it necessary for Gilpin to return to New York to keep a theatrical production engagement. He is cast for an important part in a new Eugene O'Neil play. This will be his second appearance in an O'Neil production. He created the part of "Emperor Jones" in the original play.

Vogel, is the managing director, playing the Columbia Wheel, closed Saturday, September 4. The show was reviewed by Sam Scribner, president of the Columbia Amusement Company, and was in such bad shape, it is said, that Scribner canceled its bookings. The performers and musicians were not paid Saturday night, it is understood, but the stagehands received their money. In the absence of a notice they will doubless introduce a claim for one week's additional salary. In the meantime both the stagehands' and musicians' unions are investigating the sudden closing.
What the Press Agents Say
THREE DRAMAS at the LINCOLN NEXT WEEK
By public demand, the Lincoln Theater will offer for the first three days of next week, the picture which made Valentino, the screen idol of all time. It affords the star an opportunity to display those qualities of a lover, which so endeared him to the American people and made the picture in question, "The Sheik," the outstanding achievement of his illustrious career. It was the success of "The Sheik" that prompted the same author to write the story of his latest picture, "The Son of the Sheik."
Wednesday and Thursday, Florence Vidor, will appear in her first starring vehicle, "You Never Know Women," with Lowell Sherman and Clive Brook in support. It is a story combining drama, romance, spectacle and gorgeousness to the highest degree. For Friday and Saturday that well known star, Anna Q. Nilsson, will be seen in one of the most unusual and in many respects one of the most remarkable pictures of the year both as a boy and a stylish woman. For Saturday only, the second episode of "Snowed In," with Alene Ray and Walter Miller will also be shown. Beginning Sunday week, William Fox's sensational picture "Fig Leaves" will be the feature attraction.
"LURE OF THE WILD" at the BROADWAY
On Sunday and Monday the Broadway Theater will present the first showing of that wonderful pulse throbbing story of primitive passion "Lure of the Wild" featuring Jane Novak and Lightning, the wonder dog, supported by Alan Roscoso, Billie Jean, Richard Tucker, Mario Carillo and Pat Harmon. You will get the thrill of a lifetime after seeing this wonderful feature.
On Tuesday, Constance Talmadge and Roland Colman appear in "Her Night of Romance." Wednesday and Thursday, Rex Beach's greatest novel "Padlocked" or "Should parents be too Severe on the Girls?" The week will end on Friday and Saturday with Thomas Meghan and Lois Wilson in "Irish Luck." The Black and White Syncopators and Doc Perry's Society Band will furnish the melodies.

Practitioners of literature, that is
to say, those who carn their bread
with their pens or their typewriters,
as the case may be, producing novels,
plays, short stories, verses, essays and
what not, are going more and more
into Negro life, Negro society and
Negro experience for raw material to
be converted into the more or less
finished product. The field is large,
the material is abundant, but the
workers are few. ‘Two: generations
ago Harriet Beecher Stowe gave to
the world the simple, harmless, kind-
ly, unthinking “Uncle Tom,” as color-
less and as uninspiring @ character
as ever attained celebrity and longevi-
ty in the realm of literature.
A. generation ago William Dean
Howells in “An Imperative Duty"
presented a realistic picture of hu-
man relationship involving the. lave
affairs of two young people, the young
man being of the white race, the
young woman supposedly of the same
race, but actually having a strain of
Negro blood in her veins, in the pro-
portion of one to sixteen. The young
man was ignorant of this Negro re-
inforcement. “The imperative duty”
was that, the fact of the existence of
Negro blood shauld be made -known.
Since then a new generation of
writers with new ideals, and working
on new material by new methods has
come to the fore.
Just as the fashion in clothes is that
woman shall reveal more and more of
her person, so in fiction, “and in writ-
ing generally, the fashion. is that
more and more of the intimacies, se-
erets and personal relations of the
sexes shall be revealed. ‘The realism
of the literature of the present time
is sex,
In Carl Van Vechten’s. new book
“Nigger Heaven,” we are given a pie-
ture of Negro life in Harlem, New
York's Negro community, as seen in
the cabarets, in a few private apatt-
ments and at dances:
It is not intended here to review
“Nigger Heaven” further than to ex-
plain that the title is an expression
current among Negroes themselves
as. descriptive of their conception of
Harlem; that Mr. Van Vechten makes
it clear that there is more to Negro
life than is to be seen in cabarets,
and especially that there are a num-
ber of Negroes who have done credi-
table literary work and constitute a
literary group. :
It miay also be added that the hook,
in a most skillful way, gives sound
advice to that incveasing number of
persons who are ambitious to write,
but who have no technique and who
seem to be at a loss as to what to
write about,
The book is one to be read, if at
all, by persons whose characters are
fixed and matured, whose knowledzs
of human nature is rather more than
local, and-whose edueation and ethical
standards are such that they may el-
bow gamblers, prostitutes, dope fiends,
sadists and. panders without danger
of contamination. © 4, *
People ‘are known to the world’ in
two ways: first, as they themselves
make themselves known; seccndly, #5
they are made known by others.
So far as literature is a means of
interpreting one people to another
(and it is a most effective instro-
ment), until the last: few years, the
Negro has been ifterpreted to the
world by others. The time has’ ap-
parently come, when the Negro should
be interpreted and described: largely
by his own writers, whether they write

THE KLAN AGAIN
The Ku Klux Klan has th> seeond
time come to the Nation's capital cnd
marched down Pennsylvania: Avenue.
From all estimates and actual éounts
of those who marched, it would ap-
pear that the dear old Klan is suf-
fering from an attack of progressive
paralysis. Last year, according to
nowspaper figures, 60,000 subjects of
“the invisible empire” _ visibly
shambled along the Avenue from
Peace Monument to the foot of Wash-
ington Monument; the point of dis-
bandment. According to various es-
timates, not exceeding 15,000 did the
same stunt this year. One daily
which claims its count was an actual
one, and not an estimate; gives the
number as being between eleven and
twelve thousand.
‘The universal opinion of every one
not in sympathy. with the aims of the
Klan, is that those representatives
who'cante to Washington did not ‘ap-
pear of a high order of intelligence.
They. seemed to be persons who had
failed in life—white men unable to
keep competitive pace with their fel-
low whites, and foarful lest other
groups, in competition with thes,
should push them altogether out of
the bread line; had resolved to make
‘war on the new supposed competitors.
‘There was not an intelligent face in
the whole gathering, there also was
not a kindly face, not one that beamed
with charity or goodwill of love of fel-
low. If a paitite: ‘needed. @ “model
for a picture symbolizing hatred, en-
yy malice and all uncharitableness,
he ‘had J ut to select the first Klans-
mari met in the streets of Washing-

charm which is an inseperable part
of womanhood. They: were haggard,

pearance of having been crushed un-
der by the bitterness and disappoint-
ments of life. Surely it can. not be
that such as these are to make the
policies and direct the destinies of the
republic; if they are, then there are
dark days ahead.
With reference to the apparent. de-
cline of the Klan in numbers, the whole
country is under obligations to the
New York World, th» Democratic Na-
tional Convention ef: 1924, and the
Progtessive Party under -the. leader-
ship of Senator Robert M. LeFollette,
for that result. “hat debate in Madi-
son Square Garden did more to clear
the atmesphere and to place the Klan
before the country in its tru colors
‘than any other one thing. The Demo-
cratic Party ix to be given credit for
upho'ding the standard of the right
to talk out in meeting.
‘The Klan bas. seeh its best days.

disappears. ‘The friends of freedom
and the oppressed should, however, not
relax their vigil, but should remember
that'“Eternal ‘vigilanee is the price of

‘The welcome address on the part
