Big Change Made in School Personnel CITIZENS FIGHTING TO PREVENT POOLROOM FROM OPENING IN NEIGHBORHOOD MAN WHO KILLED WIFE INDICTED ON CHARGE OF SECOND DEGREE MURDER FIRST in Advertising and Circulation Vol. VI, No. 17 Big C 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. ATTY.

Annie Laura Houston, died at her home, 1820 Twelfth Street, Northwest, September 16, after a week's illness. Mme. Houston was a licensed medium and the pastor of The First Colored Spiritualist Church, composed of about one hundred and twenty-five members. She organized this church sixteen years ago, and owns the building in which the meetings were held. Besides her congregation and many friends, she leaves to mourn their loss, a daughter, Beatrice Laura Houston, 9 years old, and a half brother, James Law, who lives in Pittsburgh, Pa. PUBLISHED WEEKLY CHANGE TING TO POLROOM FROM NEIGHBORHOOD 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. LED WIFE 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 MISS SHADD AND PROF. NALLE RETIRED; OTHER IMPORTANT CHANGES ARE MADE; FOUR MINER NORMAL GIRLS APPOINTED MRS. A. S. CAMPBELL MISS MARION P. SHADD CHAS. E. MITCHELL MENTIONED FOR LIBERIAN POST CHAS. E. MITCHELL MENTIONED FOR LIBERIAN POST --- 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. COMMUNITY CENTER BAND PLAYS The Community 'Center Band gave a concert at Tenth and U Streets, Northwest, last Friday evening, James E.

Shadd, assistant superintendent and chief examiner, and John C. Nalle, supervising principal, and made several promotions to fill vacancies caused by these retirements. Four graduates of the 1926 class of the Miner Normal School were also appointed as teachers in the public schools. H. H. Long, assistant superintendent, was made chief examiner in place of Miss Shadd. Eugene A. Clark, principal of Miner Normal Sr school, was promoted to assistant superintendent in place of Mr. Long. He is a graduate of Williams College and Miner Normal School. He received his Master's degree and a diploma for normal school principal from Columbia University in 1924. He has been connected with the public schools of the District of Columbia since 1909, teaching in the elementary schools for five years and in the Miner Normal School until August, 1920, when he was made acting principal. In 1921 he was made principal of Miner Normal. J. A. Turner, a teacher in the Miner Normal School, was promoted to principal in place of Mr. Clark. Mr. Turner graduated from Clark University, Atlanta, Ga., in 1909 with the degree of bachelor of science. He received his master's degree from Cornell University in 1926. His early experience was in the elementary schools of Georgia and the Doughlass High School, of Baltimore, Md. He was also professor of biology and head of the science department at Clark University for five years.

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. Read the advertisements in this paper, they offer many good bargains. 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. FLETO ACCOUNTING APARTMENT 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. 一 MARRIED AT 14, FOR DIVORCE 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.

W. S. SCARBOROUGH, NOTED GREEK ENRAGED CROWD IN SOUTHWEST SCHOLAR BURIED AT WILBERFORCE 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.

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 Founded 1903 Twenty-third Year Opens SEPT. 20, 1926—Register Now 4 REGULAR STANDARD COURSES and Special Beginners' Courses Diplomas and Certificates granted in Piano, Voice, Violin, Tenor Banjo, Cornet, Harmony, Public Speaking, Thorough Teachers; Reasonable Rates For further information address Secretary of Registrar, 902 T St. ,N.W., Wash., D.C., or Phone N. 128.

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.

NEWBRO THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 17, 1923 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.

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.

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.

He said: 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."

OPEN EVENINGS UNTIL 627 9:00 THE SPORT REVIEW SIX 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 versity. Nov. 25—Lincoln at Howard. 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.

They are Bill Tate, Charlie Anderson and Jimmy.Brown. Tate is his chief sparring partner. Anderson is a 212-pounder from Chicago and looks like a real comer. Brown is a middleweight from Panama. LOUIS R. LAUTIER, Sports Editor 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: Oct. 9—Hampton vs. Seminary (Hampton) Oct. 16—Hampton vs. Durham State (Hampton) Oct. 23—Va.

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. GODFREY AND LAWSON TO FIGHT PRELIM Philadelphia, Pa., September 16. George Godfrey, of Philadelphia and Bob Lawson, of Oklahoma, are among the twelve heavyweights and light-heavyweights who have been selected to take part in the preliminaries to the Dempsey-Tunney fight, September 23. They will meet in a six round affair. The first bout will start at 7 p.m., standard time. MUST PLAY GAME 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. FIGHT RETURNS TO BE BROADCAST 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. Tigers ab. r. h. Stonewalls ab. r. h.

BLACK SOX WIN TWIN BILL The Black Sox won a double-header at the Union League baseball park last Sunday afternoon, defeating the Oriental Tigers, 7-2, in the first game and the Washington Giants, 5-2, in the night-cap. T. Harris, who pitched the first contest, was in rare form. He fanned 11 men and held the Tigers scoreless until the final inning when they made their two tallies.

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."

SNYDER, Manager ADMISSION SCALE Matinee, all seats----25c Evenings, orchestra----40; Bal.----25 Liberal Progressive Independent Practitioners of literature, that is to say, those who earn 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, kindly, unthinking "Uncle Tom," as colorless and as uninspiring a character as ever attained celebrity and longevity in the realm of literature. A generation ago William Dean Howells in "An Imperative Duty" presented a realistic picture of human relationship involving the love 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 proportion of one to sixteen. The young man was ignorant of this Negro reinforcement. "The imperative duty" was that, the fact of the existence of Negro blood should 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 writing generally, the fashion is that more and more of the intimacies, secrets 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 picture of Negro life in Harlem, New York's Negro community, as seen in the cabarets, in a few private apartments and at dances. "Nigger Heaven" further than to explain 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 number of Negroes who have done creditable literary work and constitute a literary group. It may also be added that the book, in a most skillful way, gives sound advice to that increasing 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 knowledge of human nature is rather more than local, and whose education and ethical standards are such that they may elbow gamblers, prostitutes, dope fiends, sadists and panders without danger of contamination. People are known to the world in two ways: first, as they themselves make themselves known; secondly, as 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 instrument), until the last few years, the Negro has been interpreted to the world by others. The time has apparently come, when the Negro should be interpreted and described largely by his own writers, whether they write ODD FELLOWS HOLD B. M. C. IN BALTIMORE Baltimore, Md., September 17.—The twenty-third annual meeting of the Biennial Movable Committee of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows was held here this week with Edward H. Morris, Grand Master, presiding. The session was formally welcomed by Mayor Jackson, Tuesday morning at Richmond Market Armory. His address was postponed from Monday because of it having been Baltimore Day at the Sesquicentennial in Philadelphia. The joint session of the Odd Fellows and the Household of Ruth opened formally Monday morning when more than 2000 delegates and visitors responded to the three gavel sounds of District Grand Master Hesekiah Brown who called it to order. Following selections by the Sharp Street M.E. Church choir, William L. Fitzgerald presented City Solicitor, Roger B. Williams, who represented the city in its greetings to the session. Morris Presented Deputy Grand Master Jesse L. Nicholas presented the Grand Master. Edward H. Morris, who it was recalled, was elected to his present post in this city sixteen years ago. He Washington & Tribune Published Weekly at Washington, D.C., by THE WASHINGTON INSTITUTE PUBLISHING COMPANY 920 U. Street, N.W., Phone, Patomag 1687 Entered as second-class matter July 7, 1922, at the Post Office at Washington, D.C., under the Act of March 3, 1870 for newspapers and magazines, or whether they produce books. To do this most efficiently, the great body of their readers must be Negroes. The Negro reading public must be a growing and a numerically increasing public. And as it grows and increases, its power of criticism and discrimination will increase and new demands for excellence and perfection will be made of those who write. Until that condition comes about, whether we like it or not, the world will know us principally through the eyes of others—and that is apt to be adversely. THE KLAN AGAIN THE KLAN AGAIN The Ku Klux Klan has the second time come to the Nation's capital and marched down Pennsylvania Avenue. From all estimates and actual counts of those who marched, it would appear that the dear old Klan is suffering from an attack of progressive paralysis. Last year, according to newspaper figures, 60,000 subjects of "the invisible empire" visibly shambled along the Avenue from Peace Monument to the foot of Washington Monument; the point of disbandment. According to various estimates, not exceeding 15,000 did the same stunt this year. One daily which claims its count was an actual one, and not an estimate, given 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 came to Washington did not appear 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 fellow whites, and fearful lest other groups, in competition with them, 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 fellow. If a painter: needed a model for a picture symbolizing hatred, envy, malice and all uncharitableness, he had lut to select the first Klanman met in the streets of Washington. The women were devoid of that charm which is an inseparable part of womanhood. They were haggard, woebegone; downcast, having the appearance of having been crushed under by the bitterness and disappointments 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 decline of the Klan in numbers, the whole country is under obligations to the New York World, the Democratic National Convention of 1924, and the Progressive Party under the leadership of Senator Robert M. LaFollette, for that result. "That debate in Madison Square-Garden did more to clear the atmosphere and to place the Klan before the country in its true colors than any other one thing. The Democratic Party is to be given credit for upholding the standard of the right to talk out in meeting. The Klan has seen its best days. Its march will continue downward until as an organization, it entirely disappears. The friends of freedom and the oppressed should, however, not relax their vigil, but should remember that "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty." replied to the official welcome. The welcome address on the part of the Odd Fellows was delivered by the Rev. M.-H. Davis of the Waters A.M.E. Church and B. V. Baranco of New Orleans responded. An incident which brought forth unusual applause was the recitation of "The Odd Fellow's Jewels" by the youthful Master Lee Bowers, mascot of Washington Patriarchie, Mrs. Nettie E. Robinson delivered the welome address to the households. The response was by the Most Worthy Grand Superior, Mrs. Mary A. Parker. Col. Hamilton Hayes delivered the address welcoming the Patriarchie and Maj. A. T. Stewart responded. The Rev. Edward Williams presented the key and Grand Director James F. Adair responded. This was followed by the presentation of the gavel by the Rev. C. A. Johnson and George H. Pugh, responded. A telegram conveying greetings from the Grand Master, officers and Board of Directors at headquarters in Manchester, England, was read. Bishop Brooks Speaks Bishop W. Sampson Brooks spoke on his work in Africa. Others on the platform who were presented included Supervisor F. M. Wood, the Rev. Earnest Williams, who was called upon to conduct a number of songs; the Revs. George F. Bragg, William H. Thomas, W. Ashbie Hawkins, Bishop B. J. Walls and others. Following the general session in THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 17. 1926 MUSIC FORUM By Wellington A. Adams PITHY MUSIC SLOGANS Vacation is about over and now the time has come to go to work. So we think a few of Forbe's pithy slogans applied to music as a study in preparation for a career, may help to stimulate one's ambition, in part. "Will gets you up the hill. Speed gets you nowhere if you are not headed in the right direction. Don't expect to find the pathway to the top paved. Avoid the hard tasks and ultimately you'll be avoided. Resolution precedes results. Hope, but hustle also. The mule is the recognized champion kicker. Don't compete. Backaches, headaches, heart aches, seldom come from hard work. Try to ride through life on a bluff and eventually you bite the dust. Haven't you as much sense as a hen?" She keeps scratching. Keep your eye on the bull's eye and keep on trying. Not so very many are hitting it. Ideas bring in nothing unless carried out. Since our days are few, why not make the most of them?" And last but not the least: Use your head in handling the keys or notes, your heart in handling the music or melody, and you carve your own musical countenances. NEW PIANIST WISHES TO AP- PEAR HERE. We have received a communication from an out-of-town pianist who sends a list of flattering press comments, requesting a definite engagement in Washington. We would like to book this pianist and several other artists, including some local high lights but we want to feel the public's pulse first above all. Would colored Washingtonians support a concert series? That's the question just now. We are willing to launch another one under our personal management if the public wants one. The best place for such a course would be Armstrong High School Auditorium and it may be possible to arrange matters with the school authorities. Dates could be distributed among the proposed artists on a monthly basis, thereby allowing ample time between hearings. That much may be proposed and settled possibly. Now here's the rigid test for Washingtonians: If we could get 800 citizens to pledge as patrons at $1.00 per head, we can balance a budget possibly with 200 more at fifty cents per head, making a popular appeal, 500 such admissions would be ample funds to take care of the course on a monthly basis, say for from four to six months. In order to test the matter, we will allow ten days from date of this issue, to fill out the following blank in full and return to the editor of this column as follows: Date ..... 1926 Editor "Music Forum": I am in favor of a concert series of colored artists and hereby pledge my support as patron at $1.00 subscription. Signed ..... ..... Address ..... ..... City, State ..... .... NOTE: If this blank is used, write with pencil. PROMINENT CHOIR DIRECTOR RESIGNS Prof. J. Henry Lewis, probably the most experienced and best known chorus director among our group here, resigned from the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church senior chair, May 28, last. Although he was requested to remain, he refused to do so. It is not known whether Mr. Lewis will accept other work than with the Amphions, an organization of his own making. On October 19, the Amphions will celebrate their 83th anniversary at Dunbar High School, and on this occasion Mr. Lewis will be tendered a testimonial. which the various branches of the organization joined the Household of Ruth and Odd Fellows adjourned to go to their respective meeting places when the business sessions began. Accompanying Mayor Jackson on the rstrum Tuesday morning was Thomas J. Smith, who responded when presented by Deputy Grand Master Jesse Nicholas. Prominent Persons Present Louisiana, with nearly 300 delegates, seems to have led all other delegations in point of numbers. The republic of Panama was represented by T. S. Flowers, an attorney, and the following District Grand officers headed state delegations: Judge W. C. Hueston, Grand Master, of Missouri and now presiding in the Municipal Court of Gary, Indiana; Charles M. Smith, District Grand Secretary and instructor at Wilberforce University; Dr. C. C. Johnson, Grand Master of Masons of South Carolina; T. J. Monroe, of the U.S. Engineers, of Cincinnati; J. L. Flowers, District Grand Master and attorney in Panama City, Panama; Samuel L. Finley, principal of the high school at Chester, S.C.; Henry O. Butler, Endowment secretary, Barnwell, S.C. More than 300 Odd Fellows and Ruthites listened to a dramatized sermon Sunday at the Sharp Street M.E. Church, delivered by the Rev. W. M. Holt of Baltimore. The Rev. Holt visualized in his sermon the path to Heaven using as his subject, "Ten Step to Heaven." The auditorium was crowded to capacity.

Some sentences are very good, but they have to be read two or three times before the meaning is clear. Some of the Tribunites send letters with their sentences. While it is not necessary to write a letter the Editor likes to hear from the Tribunites. Prize Winners Here are the best sentences sent in since September 10, 1926. Elizabeth Tolliver, 9, 714 Rhode Island Avenue: Little Isabella Green will sell sweet yellow apples tomorrow noon. Miriam Lucas, (age ?) 1441 Q Street, Northwest: Betty Green will soon sell doll dresses three afternoons weekly. Lea E. Hollins, 14, 907 R Street, Northwest: Tomorrow afternoon all good swimmers will attend three class meetings. Charles H. Parker, 9, 1004 S St.. Dear Editor: On Tuesday of last week I went to see "Nazimova, My Son," at the Broadway Theater. It was a very fine picture, Jack Pickford played the part of Toney, the son of a poor Portuguese store keeper. He was fond of pretty girls. He had a girl he loved but when he met a flapper from New York he fell in love with her. He got in lots of trouble over her but everything turned out all right, all because he realized that mother always knows best. I think if we follow our mothers' teachings we will never go astray. JENNIE INGRAM (12) OSPAR ENJOYED PICTURE Dear Editor: On Friday, September 8, I saw a very impressive picture at the Dunbar Theater, Buck Jones, in "The Cowboy and the Countess." I liked the story because it showed how brave and strong cornbirds are, and the hardships they endure. It also showed that money cannot do all things. The story appealed to me because I am a lover of Western stories. I hope that all of the Tribunites who saw this picture enjoyed it as I did. OSPAR LONESOME PRIDE OF RACE Always be proud of your race, and never do anything that will cause the race to be ashamed of you. Be proud of your RACE.
