PUBLISHE HING ORGY
Hearings were had before a subcommittee of the Senate judiciary committee on February 23, last, on the bill introduced by Senator William B. McKinley, Republican, of Illinois. This sub-committee reported it favorably to the full committee, but the judiciary committee voted against a favorable report.
This lynching followed a directed verdict of not guilty for Demond Lowman on a charge of conspiracy to murder in connection with the slaying of Sheriff H. H. Howard in April, 1925. He had been rearrested on a charge of assault with intent to kill and was being held in jail at the time of the lynching. The other man and the woman were on trial for the Sheriff's murder.
The party was served with dinner at the home of Mr. Lightfoot after leaving the church. At the Elks' hall a banquet was served.

AUTHORITIES AROUSED BY OUTBREAKS
The lynchings of four persons in the South last week are expected to give impetus to the fight for the enactment of a Federal antlynching bill.
A bill to assure to persons within in the jurisdiction of every state the equal protection of the laws and to punish the crime of lynching is now pending in the judiciary committees of both the Senate and House of Representatives.
As a result of these lynchings the fight for the passage of this legislation, which has the sanction of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, will probably be renewed with vigor, when the Congress reconvenes for the short session in December.
The bill in the judiciary committee of the House is identical with the Senate bill. It was introduced by Representative L. C. Dyer, Republican, of Missouri, whose original Federal antilynching bill passed the House of Representatives but was killed by a Democratic fillibuster in the Senate in December, 1922.
Two questions perplex those who favor the enactment of Federal antilynching legislation. The first is the constitutionality of the McKinley-Dyer antilynching bill. The second is whether or not the passage of this bill would end lynching. Quite a few Senators believe that the Federal Government would be important in curbing lynching and that state legislation would be more effective. These views were brought out at the last hearing before the subcommittee of the Senate judiciary committee.
Three of the lynchings last week occurred at Aiken, South Carolina, last Friday morning. One of the victims of the mob is a woman. The mob took Bertha, Clarence and Dommond Lowman from their cells in the Aiken County jail, placed them in automobiles and, after driving to a pine thicket on the outskirts of town, riddled their bodies with bullets.
The fourth lynching took place Friday night at Dover, Tennessee. Rip Bell was taken from the jail by a mob transported across the Cumberland River and hanged. His body riddled with bullets was found the next morning dangling from a tree. He was being held on a charge of first degree murder in connection with the clubbing to death of Rufus Johnson, a farmer. Coroners' juries in each of these lynchings returned verdicts that the mob victims came to their death at the hands of "unknown parties."

ALUMNI WOULD RE-ESTABLISH COMMERCE DEPT.
The executive committee of the board of trustees of Howard University will submit the two resolutions of the alumni association, which it considered at its meeting Thursday, October 7, to the full board at its meeting in February.
One of these resolutions of the alumni association calls for the reestablishment of the school of commerce and finance, the reinstitution of four professors who were summarily dismissed in June, 1925, and the reassignment of Dean Kelly Miller and Dean George W. Cook as heads of the departments over which they formerly presided.
The school of commerce and finance was merged under the college of liberal arts and Professors Alaine LeRoy Locke, Alonzo H. Brown, Metz T. P. Lochard and Orlando C. Thornton were dismissed following a survey of the academic departments of the university in 1925. This survey was made by Dr. Robert J. Leonard of Columbia University.
The other resolution of the alumni association, which the executive committee decided to refer to the full committee declared the right of the alumni association to elect the alumni secretary. This office is now being filled by Emory B. Smith, who was chosen for the post by Dr. J. Stanley Durkee.

CHARGES FILED AGAINST POLICEMAN FOR ARREST OF TEN YEAR OLD BOY
As the result of an allied arrest of a 10-year old boy, James White, 124 Q. Street, Southwest, September 29, followed by an alleged illegal arrest of his brother, William Clinton White, 21 years old, charges were filed through Attorneys Houston and Houston on Wednesday before the Police Trial Board against Policeemen Charles E. Metler and Dallis A. Gourley of No. 4 precinct police station.
Mrs. Jennie E. White, the mother of James and William Clinton White, charges Policemen Metler and Gourley with unlawfully entering her home on September 29, subjecting her son, James, to false imprisonment, oppression and tyranny, and with conduct unbecoming officers.
William Clinton White charges Policemen Metler and Gourley jointly with cruelty, tyranny, oppression, false imprisonment and conduct unbecoming officers.
According to the affidavits filed with the police trial board, the trouble began when the two officers called at the White home about 9 oclock on the night of September 29 and asked if James White lived there. The officers entered the house, and Metler said he wanted James for taking money away from white children in the neighborhood.
Yells at Boy
At the time James was studying his lessons. In a coarse and brutal manner, the affidavit of Mrs. White charges, Metler demanded to know of James, "What do you mean by taking money from these little white children?" James said that he had done no such thing. "Stop lying to me," Metler is alleged to have shouted at the boy.
James began to cry. The two officers took him to a house in Half Street between R and Potomac Streets. Southwest. Calling a little girl, they are said to have (Continued on page 2)

DENTIST'S WIFE WINS SUIT FOR BACK ALIMONY
Mrs. Naoni D. Smith, 2007 Nichols Avenue, Southeast, was given an unconditional judgment by Justice Jennings Bailey last Friday against her husband, Dr. Sylvester B. Smith, a dentist, for $240 unpaid temporary alimony.
Mrs. Smith is suing her husband through Attorneys Fischer and Fischer for separate maintenance. She alleges that her mother-in-law, Mrs. Capitola Smith, interfered in their domestic affairs and that her husband failed to provide for her. Dr. Smith denied these charges and declared that his wife treated his mother with disrespect.
Dr. Smith was ordered September 22, 1925, to pay his wife the sum of $15 a week as temporary alimony. He made payments regularly until June 20, last. Since that date he has made no payment. His wife asked the court for judgment against him.
Dr. Smith left the city about six months ago. He is in the State of Pennsylvania. Attorney George E. C. Hayes was retained to represent him.
"Syl" Smith, as he is known here, is a former national tennis singles champion, having won the title in 1919. Mrs. Smith is the daughter of Marcus Dale, a mail carrier. They were married August 9, 1924, by the Rev. Charles H. Wesley. Mrs. Smith filed her suit for separate maintenance a year later, August 20, 1925.

OR LAW SUIT solutions NS JIM-CROW SOUNDS THAT CHARTERED
Charles H. Flagg lost his suit against the Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis Electric Railroad Company and J. G. Faircloth for $10,000 damages because he was not permitted to ride on the "Bowie Special" from Washington to Prince Georges race track, Bowie, Md., April 4, 1925, on account of his color. A jury in circuit court No. 1 late Wednesday afternoon returned a verdict for the defendants.
The suits brought by Thos. H. R. Clark and J. T. Settle, which were being tried at the same time, were withdrawn when the defense closed. Attorneys Charles H. Houston and J. T. Settle, who represent the plaintiffs in these cases, state that these two suits will be brought again. They consider the latter case stronger than the Flagg case.
Threatens to Arrest
The testimony of Mr. Flagg, Mr. Clark and Mr. Settle showed that observations were made over the telephone for space on the "Bowie special." Mr. Settle on April 4, 1925, purchased the tickets. When the three men attempted to board the train, they were not permitted to do so. Mr. Faircloth threatened to call a policeman. A refund of their money was offered them, but they declined to accept it.
Defense witnesses testified that the "Bowie special" was a chartered train run by Mr. Faircloth for members of a club and that a mistake was made in the selling of the tickets.
Chief Justice McCoy instructed the jury in order for Mr. Flagg to recover the burden of proof was upon the plaintiff to show that no mistake had been made, a contract had been entered into, and, Mr. Flagg, having such a contract, was not permitted to board the train because he was a Negro.
A.M.E.MINISTERS PAY RESPECTS TO H.U.PRES.
The Washington and vicinity preachers of the Baltimore Conference African Methodist Episcopal Church called at Howard University last Tuesday morning and paid their respects to the new president, Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson.
The members of the delegation were presented to Dr. Johnson by Dr. O. J. W. Scott, a faculty member, who stated in brief the purpose of the visit. Rev. C. E Stewart, pastor of the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church, made remarks, pledging the support of the A.M.E. ministers to Dr. Johnson in his work as president of Howard.
Dr. Johnson thanked the delegation for its pledge to support him. The delegation with Dr. Johnson was then photographed by Addison N. Scurlock on the steps of the Carnegie library.
Those in the delegation were: Revz. A. D. Holder, C. E. Stwart, P. A. Scott, C. H. Wesley, S. T. Crawford, M. J. Key, J. C. McEady, A. H. Coke, O. J. W. Scott, H. L. Holmes, E. R. Williams, J. W. Norris and A. L. Criglar.
The delegation then went to the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church where one of the clubs of the church served luncheon.

MUSIC FOR THE PEOPLE
Recently the music editor of The
Evening Star wrote the following
very timely article:
"There are still a great many people in the United States who do not realize that music is almost as useful and necessary a factor in real living as eating and sleeping. Within the last few years the sport variety of recreation from such lines of work as the average business man or woman engage in to earn a living has come to the fore and asserted its value beyond doubt. Golf is one of the most conspicuous examples of this. It was once considered only a game for wealthy folk of the leisure class. "Just as people generally considered golf a sport set apart, so many folks still think of music. There are the famous musicians and singers everybody wants to hear. There are certain talented children who grow up in every community and whose families sacrifice to see that Johnny gets the best kind of piano to learn on and Mary can have singing lessons, with an eye always peeled toward the alluring picture of a concert or operatic "career."
But as for generally taking the magic of music and using it practically in everyday living—that is still a thing apart. Of course, there are State songs and club 'sings" when words apropos of a special subject or occasion are used in public as set to a popular or semi-classical air, but, after all, that isn't music.
"Real music is inspirational. The most beautiful music arouses an emotion in the listener that has a religious, exhaling quality; in the performer the value of such reaction is greatly enhanced. Wherefore, the need of more so-called 'amateur music.'
"Look at any street car full of people going about the average sound of endeavors! Most of their faces are gloomy when they are caught "off guard," so to speak. Take another street car full of people who have been to a concert—even a simple band concert in a park—and there will be a light in their eyes and an alertness of attitude, even though the hour beate, perhaps past dinner time, and they have had the music after a hard day at the office.
"But there are so few street car loads of concert-goers compared to the loads carried all day of people going about the more borneose arrands of living. The answer is that people need more music and most of all, they need to take a more personal, active part in music."
LONDON HEARS NEGRO
MELODIES
American Negro melodies recently have been introduced into the musical program of the Old Southwark Cathedral in London just across London Bridge on the south side of the Thames. Noonlay recitals are given there for the benefit of the porters at the oops market and other workers from nearby establishments. The selections are from the "Nero spirituals," or plantation ymns, and are expected to prove potent drawing card for lunch on hour audiences in this busy district.

grown a flashlight into his face and asked her if he was the boy he had taken the money. She old them no. The two officers then called the father of the girl and he also told them that James was not the boy and gave them description of the boy.
"Crack His Head"
In his affidavit, William says that he was on his way to work about 9:45 o'clock on the night of October 2, when he observed policemen Metler and Gourley with man and a boy under arrest at the patrol box at the corner of First and P Streets, Southwest, after they had sent their prisoners to the station house, Gourley called him, he says, and asked his name. William told him. Gourley then asked him where he lived. He answered, "I don't live anywhere," Metler, who was talking to two women in an automobile, it is charged, turned and said to Gourley, "Take your stick and crack him across the head." Gourley is said to have grabbed him in the collar and pulled him roughly towards the patrol box.
Protects Sister
White sent word to his father that he was under arrest. His sister, Miss Bernita White came, she asked him what had he done, Meter shouted at her, "You shut up and go on home." White told the officer not to speak to his sister in that way. Metler, it is charged, told him, "Shut up. I don't take anything off 'miggers.'" He then attempted to strike him over the head with his stick, but White caught the blow on his arm, he affidavit states. His father arrived and asked what was the trouble. Gourley old him, it is said, "You can find that out at the station, old man." White was taken to No. 4 prescript police station in the parcel vagon and placed in a cell. No charges were preferred against him. An half hour later the desk arceant released him.

JUDGE ASKS FOR MORE EVIDENCE IN COOPER CASE
Mrs. Regina M. Cooper, 117% Thomas Street, Northwest, who is suing her husband, Rolandus Cooper, for an absolute divorce, will have to get more evidence to substantiate her charges, Justice Jennings Bailey told Attorney George E. C. Hayes, who is representing her, when the case was heard last Wednesday afternoon.
Justice Bailey indicated, however, that if Attorney Hayes would submit to him further evidence showing an association between Rolandus Cooper and the co-respondent, Evelyn Parrot, before or after the two are alleged to have misconducted themselves in the Cooper home, he will grant Mrs. Cooper an absolute divorce.
Another Hearing
There will be another hearing whenever Mr. Hayes is ready to proceed.
Both Mrs. Parrott and Mr. Cooper are alleged to have left the city shortly after the court awarded Mrs. Cooper temporary alimony and custody of her minor child, Roland, who is with his mother at present in Hartford, Conn. Attorney Joseph V. Kelly appeared for Mr. Cooper and Attorney Isaiah Lisenby appeared for Mrs. Parrott.
Mrs. Cooper testified that she returned home unexpectedly on the evening of July 21, 1925, and found her husband and the co-respondent in a compromising position. Her testimony was corroborated by that of Mrs. Bessie Jackson Lee, who accompanied her to her home. Mrs. Lee described the condition of the bathroom upon her entry.

MORE FUNDS FOR RESEARCH WORK NEEDED
A campaign to raise the sum of $20,000 a year for the collection and publication of data concerning Negro life and history by the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, of which Carter G. Woodson is the director, was inaugurated at a dinner given by Dr. James E. Shepard, of Durham, N.C., last Wednesday evening at the Whitelaw Hotel.
The Association for the Study of Negro Life and History has in view four objectives to inculcate a higher appreciation of the Negro's contribution to civilization and to secure for him due recognition. They are the collection, publication and popularization of a series of historical stories, textbooks, and pictures depicting the Negro in Africa and America; the inducement of boards of education to adopt these works as optional texts and supplementary works in the public schools, and having libraries provide an adequate number of reference books presenting the various aspects of Negro life and history.
According to Population
To finance this movement, it is estimated that the sum of $20,000 a year is needed. It is planned to raise this money by opportioning it to the several states according to the Negro population. The raising of this money is in charge of a general committee, of which Dr. Shepard is the chairman.
Those present at the dinner last Wednesday evening included Dr. James E. Shepard, Carter G. Woodson, C. C. Spaulding, president of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company; F. M. Wood, supervisor of public schools, Baltimore, Md.; Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of public schools; F. D. Bluford, president of the North Carolina Agricultural and Technical College, Greensboro, N.C.; L. S. James, principal of the Mary; and Normal School, Bowie, Md.; Mrs. Amanda Gray-Hilver, Neval H. Thomas, J. H. N. Waring of the Downington Industrial and Agricultural School, Downington, Pa.; Miss Susie R. Quander, George W. Cook, Arthur W. Mitchell, Dr. Thomas I. Brown of Morgan College, Baltimore, Md.; J. A. Turner, principal of the Milner Normal School; G. S. Wormley, principal of the Randall Junior High School; George A. Parker, Miles W.

DAVIS WILL PROBABLY
PLEAD INSANITY
Policeman George Sheridan Davis, who is being held for the action of the grand jury in connection with the murder of Mrs. Desdemona Barnett Dudley on September 21, will probably plead temporary insanity as a defense when brought to trial.
Before he was removed from Freedmen's Hospital where he was taken after he had fatally shot Mrs. Dudley four times and himself through his right temple in an attempt to end his life, he feigned not to know anything about the crime with which he is charged, according to hospital internes.
He also told officers at No. 8 precinct police station, where he spent the night of October 4, prior to being taken to the District morgue for the inquest, that he knew nothing about the fatal shooting.
Attorney Joseph V. Kelly, who appeared for Attorney Bertrand Emerson at the inquest, would not divulge in any way the nature of the defense that will be made for Davis. Mr. Emerson will defend him.

MT, ZION CELEBRATES
110TH ANNIVERSARY
The Mount Zion Methodist Epis-
copal Church, the oldest in the Dis-
trict and one of the oldest in this
section of the country, began cele-
bration of its 110th” anniversary,
goth and Dumbarton Avenue,
Georgetown, Sunday morning.
‘This church is noted as being the
first station of the “underground”
railroad and is responsible for the
growth of many churches through-
out the city. |”
Records dating back to October
16, 1816, when the little church be-
gan under white ministers, have
been brought down to date, and al-
so shows that following 1865 the
history of the church was taken up
by colored ministers beginning with
the Rev. John H. Price.
‘The first white minister of the
church was the Rev. Robert S. Vin-
ton, who was assisted by Eli Nu-
gent, colored, “local preacher.” He
Was the first compiler of the “Reg-
ist-r of Colored Members” of the
Methodist Church jn. Georgetown.
First Building
The first church edifice housing
colored people was built on Mill
street; near P Street, in George-
town, in 1816;’and was organized
by William Crusor, William Trun-
well, Shadrack Nugent, ‘Thomas
Mason, Polly Hill, Tamar Green
and Lucy Neal, ‘descendants of
whom are found among the princi-
pal colored families of Washing-
ton and Georgetown.
Entries in the record books of
the church from 1830 to 1865 are of
special interest. ‘They indicate and
illustrate in striking manner the
District of Columbia of a century
ago. “Gone away,” a simple nota-
tion following the name of a par-
ishoner is said to have meant that
said parishoner had been sent, by
the Underground railroad to Mar-
pers Ferry and thence to Canada,
to escape from slavery.
The legend “taken away,” on the
other hand, meant he had been so
unfortunate as to come ifito the
hands of the “patrollers,” a term
spoken with hushed voices by aged
folk to this day, with a peculiar
accent on the first syllable. Op-
posite the name of one Edward
Brown, in 1833, was. recorded,
“Sold, poor fellow,” and the record,
“Sold to the South,” opposite the
names of Notley Harris and Kitty
Nevitt in the same year,
Negro Preachers
‘The question of having colored

This paper wishes to correct an error which appeared in this column last week concerning the plot of ground between Oronoco and Princess Streets, and Henry and Fayettes Streets. The statement read in effect that Mr. Rich and Lawyer Collins were the agents for the sale of these lots. It should have stated that Lawyer A. H. Collins was the sole agent for the same. The prices of these lots was also erroneously stated. For particulars as to prices and sizes see Lawyer A. H. Collins whose offices are at 1510 King Street.

GAME TO BE GALLED AT
2:30 P.M.
Local football fans will see their first intersectional clash when Morehouse College of Atlanta, Ga. clashes Saturday afternoon with the Howard University team. The game will be played in the Howard stadium. This will be the first meeting of these two teams since 1923 when Howard, led by Doneghy, beat the
COACH WATSON
Georgians in one of the most stubbornly fought games ever seen here by a score of 10 to 0, Doneghy scoring a touchdown, the extra point and a field goal. The fans are assured of a good game. B. T. Harvey, head coach at Morehouse, is a Colgate man and has an excellent reputation as a coach. His teams are noted for their fighting spirit. Louis L. Watson, who was coaching at Howard in 1923, will try to duplicate his former victory. This game will be the test of the E.son strength.

TALLADEGA TROUNGES
MILES MEMORIAL, 20-0
TALLADEGA, Ala. Oct. 11—The 1926 football season was ushered in at Talladega Saturday with a victory over the Miles Memorial eleven by a score of 20 to 0. At the beginning of the first half Miles Memorial was forced to kick. A fumbled punt caused Miles to get the ball on the 50-yard line. This was followed by a successful pass resulting in the ball being placed on Talladega's 20-yard line. On the next play, Cooper, Talladega's quarterback, recovered a Miles fumble and raced 80 yards through the Miles line for a touchdown. Cooper failed to make the extra point.
The second half began with Miles kicking to Talladega. Pitts returning five yards. On the next play, Cooper, Talladega's quarterback, reversed the field and raced through the Miles team for 55 yards before being downed by Leach. Miles half-back. Rockjaw Edwards bit Miles line for 15 yards and a touchdown. The last score was made by a series of line bucks and end runs, and off-tackle plays, by Dixon. Harris Pitts, and Rudy Poole, the latter making a wide sweeping end run for the final count. The line-up: Talladega.

THE SPORT REVIEW
LOUIS R. LAUTIER, Sports Editor
HOWARD WINS FIRST GAME BY LARGE SCORE
The Howard University eleven won its initial game of the season and the first to be played in the new stadium, defeating Livingstone College of Salisbury, N.C., last Saturday afternoon by a score of 31 to 0.
In this victory the triumphant Blue and White squad looked better than it did a year ago when it beat the same college eleven by a score of 21 to 0. The backfield, although composed of veterans, showed greater speed. More modern football was put into use. Instead of continuously hitting the line off-tackle, the Howard eleven used a diversified attack. The forward pass was used frequently, Howard making sixteen attempts and completing six.
Huddle System Used
The biggest change adopted by Coach Louis L. Watson, who is beginning his second successive year and is being keenly watched, was the use of the "huddle system" in the calling of signals. It worked well, but slowed up play a trifle. Jack Coles, quarterback, and "Tick" Smith, right halfback, were the individual stars of the Howard offensive. The generalship of Jack Coles was superb. He proved a good ground gainer, but was inaccurate in his drop-kicking for extra point after touchdowns, making only one out of three trials good. "Tick" Smith goes down in history as the first man to touchdown in the new stadium. Only a few minutes after or play had begun, he had crossed the North Carolinians' goal for the first touchdown of the game. He was the greatest carrier of the ball for Howard. He and "Red" Tyson made four of the five touchdowns credited to the Blue and White eleven, each crossing the Livingstone goal line twice.
President Johnson Gets Gravitas
TI: most noticeable change is in the followers of the Blue and White eleven. Spirit has been revived in them. There was a time when the cheering sections were dead throughout a game. Last Saturday, however the stands were alive with enthusiasm, especially during the first half.
Shortly after play had begun in the first half, President Mordiacci companioned by Emmett J. Scott, ley Durkee, entered. He was accompanied big Emmett J. Scott, secretary treasurer of the university and athletic business manager. The Howard students arose and cheered him. The band immediately struck up "Alma Mater."
The Livingstone team showed practically nothing. It was lighter than the Howard eleven. Occasionally, however, the North Carolinians would open gaps in the Howard line and make gains.
Whenever Howard was forced to punt, Louis Campbell, right end, was called behind the line and did the kicking.
Howard got off to a fast start, receiving the kick off in the midfield and going down the field in four successive first downs for the first score by "Tick" Smith. Coles kicked goal for the extra point, the only one scored after a touchdown. Livingstone got the ball when Howard failed at a forward pass on the fourth down after receiving the ball. The "Tarkheelers" could make no headway and were forced to kick. Coles, tore off a first down on the first play and "Tick" Smith ran the remaining 23 yards for the second touchdown. Both sides were forced to kick on downs during the remainder of the period.
In the second quarter Howard re-

LOSES CLOSE
GAME
In the third quarter, Howard came back with new vigor. An attempted double pass by Livingstone around right end resulted in a fumble and Howard recovered the ball on the visitor's 13-yard line. Two line piuges, a forward pass and another plunge by Young took the ball across the line. Then a little later Howard started a march across on four successive first downs, and this in spite of a fifteen-yard penalty. Most of the gains were made around right end and through right tackle. Another touchdown by Howard followed shortly after, making three in one period.
The last quarter saw Livingstone fighting vainly. Three of their players were forced from the field on account of injuries. Howard could make only two first downs in this period but was just about to sore the sixth touchdown when the final whistle blew.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY. OCTOBER 15, 1925
ARMSTRONG HIGH LOSES CLOSE GAME
The first intersectoinal game of football between members of the High School Conference of this region was played Monday, at the Howard University stadium between the Manassas Industrial Institute team and Armstrong High School.
Manassas showing continued improvement over former years and coached by "Teddy" Chambers, succeeded in taking the measure of Tech, by the score of 3 to 2.
It was the tiny brother of the coach, "Little" Chambers, who played a stellar game at quarterback, and who scored the winning points with a field-goal for his team in the fourth quarter when he had successfully penetrated the line of the local boys for eight successive gains.
This was followed by a safety, by Johnson, of Armstrong, near the end of the game, and with the score very close, the visitors played safe until the end.
For the first time in its history, the Manassas boys defeated the Armstrong Tigers on their own ground.
Monday, October 18, will witness another game with Armstrong, playing the Bowie Normal School, in the Howard Stadium at 3 o'clock. On Thursday, October 21, the Manual Trainers will have a very difficult task when they meet the Booker T. Washington High School team at Norfolk, Va., for the second contest in the conference. The third game will be played on the following day when Dumbar will be entertained by the Huntington High School of Newport News, Va.

CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 14—The Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City, N.J., and the American Giants are tied for the colored baseball championship of the world, each team having won four games.
When the two teams jumped West, the Bacharachs were leading, having won 3 and lost 1. In their own bailiwick, the American Giants rallied, winning the seventh game of the series, 4 to 1, losing the eighth, 3 to 0, winning the ninth 6 to 3, and the tenth, 13 to 0. Two games were tied.

TUSKEEGE BEATS FLORIDA
A. AND M.
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala.
Oct. 9.—Tuskegge added the Florida A. and M. College to its list of conference victories here Saturday. The score was 73 to 6.
At no time during the game were the visitors, coached by "Jazz" Byrd, former Lincoln dangerous star. In nine minutes after play began Stevenson went over for the first touchdown. Tuskegge rolled up 20 points against the Tallahassee team in the first quarter.
In the second quarter the Cadets made only one touchdown which was the result of Wooten's line drive. A fumble by a Tuskegge player recovered by a Wildcat, followed by a carefully executed forward pass from Bragg to Mahone, resulted in a touchdown for the visitors. No other time during the game did the visitors seriously threaten the Cadets.
Three minutes after the opening of the second half, Steward registered a touchdown and the point after. So three minutes later Tadlock converted a blocked kick into a touchdown. The extra point was added by a pass.
Captain Kitchen recovered another blocked kick behind the visitor's goal, giving Tuskegee its third touchdown for the quarter. L Robinson added the extra point by a place kick. Smith made a 20 yard pass to Stevenson who gave a brilliant exhibition of broken and open field running for 60 yards, giving Tuskegee its fourth touchdown for the third quarter. His try for the extra point by drop kick went wide:
The visitors were well worn in the fourth quarter and were unable to withstand the frequent substitution Abbott sent against them. The 20 points piled up during this period may be credited to the Brown-Goodwin-Fields Junior Tigers. Among the substitutes who did good work were Whitlow, Shanklin, Sweeting, Nash, Weaver, Rideaux, Adams, Walker, C, Wiley, MeMurry, and T. Harris.

MOREHOUSE WINS FROM ALLEN, 7 TO 0
ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 9—The Maroon Tide defeated the fast Allen University eleven here Saturday, 7-0.
The long Morehouse tally came in the second quarter when Clark carried the pigskin over after a series of line plays and Brown made the extra point from placement. With the ball on Morehouse's own 30-yard line as the result of a 45-yard punt, quarterback A. Brown had marched his team to the two-yard line with a series of end runs and off-tackle plays.
Three quarters of the game were played in Morehouse's territory. The toe of Cheek keeping the ball out of the danger zone. The Allen backs baffled Morehouse with an aerial attack, and worked the ball to Morehouse's four-yard line in the first quarter, but a fumble by quarterback Cheek, which was recovered by Dooley, marred their chances of scoring. Allen threatened again in the third quarter when a 15-yard penalty and a 9-yard forward pass placed the oval on Morehouse's 6-yard line, this time the Morehouse line stiffened and they were unable to buck the ball across in the four downs.
Lattimore was the high light in the Morehouse line-up. Time and again, he broke through the strong Allen forward wall, and threw their backs for heavy losses. He was ably supported by C. D. Clarke at halfback and R. Dezon at right end.
Morehouse completed two passes out of six attempts for 18 yards, while the Allenites were unable to "finish up" 5 out of 8 for a total of 53 yards. Morehouse, made 9 first downs in contrast to Allen's 4. Line-up and summary:

ROAMERS WIN FROM CAMP HUMPHREYS
ALEXANDRIA, Va., Oct. 12—The revamped Roamer football team, playing for the benefit of the Ways and Means Committee of the Alexandria Lodge of Elks, defeated the Fort Humphrey soldiers on last Sunday, October 10, 46-0. The soldiers clearly showed the lack of practice and were but little opposition for the fast Roamer team. With the material the soldiers have at their command, by the end of the season it is expected that they will give any semi-professional team strong opposition. The game was one of the cleanest games seen on a sandlot for many seasons.

NEW YORK, Oct. 13.—Harry Wills, the Brown Panther, that has thrown his shadow across the heavyweight championship title of the world ever since Dempsey defeated Willard in 1910, has been relegated to the ranks of second-raters. He fell a victim to Father Time that has taken his toil in the ring ever since the fight game first began. Wills passed definitely and permanently out of the heavyweight first class on Tuesday night when he was disqualified for fouling Jack Sharkey in the 13th round of a bout that was scheduled to go 15 rounds in Ebbbets
HARRY WILSON
HARRY WILLS
There was no dispute when referee Patsy Haley stopped the fight after 43 seconds of the 13th round.
Decisively Beaten
Wills had been badly and horribly beaten in the preceding twelve rounds.
He was disqualified and thrown out of any change for a championship fight because of foul punches.
Referee Haley ordered Wills out of the ring because in spite of many previous warnings he wrapped his long left around Sharkoy's neck and hit him with three vicious rabbit punches under the ear.
Sharkoy, a Navy veteran, came into the fight with a reputation of being humid.
But instead of being timid, the gob went out and fought a man three inches over his height and with the advantage of 26 pounds more weight, he tore into him with a weaving style much like Demmssey. Before a crowd of 35,000 which attended the first good weather fight this season, Sharkey defeated Wills throughout the fight.
THEATRICAL
LINCOLN INAUGURATES NEW POLICY SUNDAY. W. C. HANDY IN CHARGE OF MUSICAL PRESENTATIONS
W. C. Handy, one of the most notable figures in American music of the modern type, last week was appointed to the post of conductor of a newly assembled twelve piece syncopated orchestra and director of presentations at the Lincoln Theater, operated by the Stanley-Crandall Company of Washington, on U Street at Twelfth, Northwest.
Mr. Handy, creator of the "blues," whose compositions "The Memphis Blues." "The Beale Street Blues," and "The St. Louis Blues," are known the world over, brings to his new task at the Lincoln Theater a full equipment of musicianship and creative ability The acquisition of Mr. Handy as a new member of the executive personnel operating the Lincoln will signalize the establishment of a totally new policy at the handsome U Street house which seems destined to make of the Lincoln one of the representative presentation houses in the East.
Not only will Mr. Handy conduct the newly organized orchestra of twelve expert instrumentalists, but he will embellish the presentations of the screen features at the Lincoln with special prologue, interpretative acts and other modern means of making of the motion picture a distinctive form of entertainment. It will be part of the new policy of the Lincoln to present four de luxe performances on Saturday and Sunday of each week, Sunday, of course, inaugurating the new bill and Saturday concluding the pre-

modern American musical expression, but it embraces also a group of entertainers who lend the organization a versatility that can be boasted by a few similar aggregations of musicians, comedians and dancers. Prominent among the specialists in Mr. Hanbys orchestra are A. A. Copleand, a singer and dancer and Robert Weis, a soio saxoponist, who also combines with his musical art a dancing ability that few can approach.
The acquisition of Mr. Handy and the addition of his specialized orchestra to the permanent features to be presented at the Lincoln would be negligible from a box one viewpoint were it not true that the Stanley-Crandall organization has concentrated on the booking of a series of photo-play attractions such as U Street never before has witnessed. It is noteworthy and characteristic of the Stanley-Crandall organization that notwithstanding the augmented exor this policy and the engagement of this policy and th engagement of an artist of the standing and reputation and musical ability of W. C. Handy, admission prices remain practically unchanged. At the matinees the present scale will prevail. At night the only change in admission will be an additional charge of five cents.
The entertaining qualities of the bills at the Lincoln on and after Sunday, October 17, will not be confined to the virtues of the photoplay features or stricty to the personnel of Mr. Handy's orchestra, but will embrace too the talents or specially engaged artists who will be presented from time to time in offerings appropriate to the character of the subject pictured on the screen and the special musical programs arranged by Mr. Handy. These artists will be drafted from the foremost players of vaudeville revue, musical comedy and opera, not to omit the concert stage and will add still further to the bargain diversions to be obtained at the Lincoln at practically the same cost as is now in force. Not the least interesting of W. C. Handy's contribution to modern music is his anthology of the blues, a publication which has been carefully and thoughtfully compiled and which presents an illuminating treatise on the latest manifestation of musical expression in this country. Not only does Mr. Handy's anthology of the blues, include an authentic setting forth of the origin of this type of musical expression but it also embodies reproductions of many of the compositions that have made W. C. Handy one of the significant figures in modern musical development in America.

VALENTINO IN HIS LAST
PLAY AT HOWARD
Book lovers and the hundreds of Washington Valentino admirers will be interested in Manager Graham's announcement that he will show the screen adaptation of E. M. Hall's latest novel "The Son of the Shiek," starring Rudolph Valentino at his best at Howard Theatre for one week only beginning Monday, October 18.
It was Mrs. Edith M. Hull who wrote the best-selling novel, "The Shiek," which Valentino made into a sensationally successful film several years ago, and in "The Son of the Shiek," a sequel to "The Sheik," he is said to excel the former performance. Agnes Ayres, who was the lovely lady of "The Sheik," returned to the screen especially to play in "The Son of the Sheik" with Valentino.
In conjunction with "The Son of the Sheik" we have Susie Sutton and her "Follow Me" company in a "Bon Ton Revue" with the Novelty Four Quartette.
"GEORGIA MINSTRELS"

The show is a well-balanced offering in which every member does some energetic work, and it discloses quite a varied array of talent. Broadly amusing are the first part jokes, and they are delivered with much gusto. The "stepping" is fetching and fascinating, and the dancers seemed tireless in their efforts to entertain, while there are also several meritorious specialties.

OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS
According to reports forwarded to the Board of Education by Health Officer Fowler, August 4, 1926, the sanitary conditions existing in the various public schools in the District at the closing of the schools was little short of scandalous, to say nothing of the menace to the public arising from these conditions. The reports were made by the school medical inspectors and the sanitary inspectors of the Health Department. In only a very condensed and concentrated statement can here be indicated something of what those reports contain by making reference to the reports of the medical inspectors for the colored schools; Dr. Albert Ridgley, Dr. Chas. A. Tignor and Dr. Henry W. Freeman.
In the Ambush School there are obstructed sewers; a leakey roof; damp rooms; insufficient number of toilets; inadequately equipped rest room; some window shades missing and others in "very poor condition"; poor electric lighting and "non-adjustable" furniture.
At the Armstrong School there are defective toilets; accumulation of material in areaways; imperfect ventilation; walls in need of repainting; insufficient equipment to keep the building as clean as desired; and a lack of soap and brooms.
In the Cleveland School the playgrounds are rough, uneven and not properly drained and the play space is insufficient; the assembly hall is poorly lighted; walls damp, plaster falling and toilet rooms poorly lighted and toilets in need of repairs.
In the preceding paragraphs is to be found a sample from the reports of each of the medical inspectors for the colored schools. They are fair samples of what is reported to each of the colored schools. It is amazing that conditions such as here revealed should exist in a single public school building in the District of Columbia.
It is to be considered that the reports were made at the end of the school year when in the course of events things are "run down", but there are certain specifications relating to sanitary conditions, ventilation and lighting that must have existed throughout the year. The reports show on their face the divided responsibility existing in the District as to school matters. The present organic act relating to the public schools is principally distinguished for the facility it affords for "passing the busk."
Take the case now in hand. The Board of Education will place responsibility for conditions at the door of the District Commissioners, and the Commissioners in turn will accuse the Board, and both when cornered will accuse the Bureau of the Budget or Congress, meantime the germs of disease and pestilence fester and ferment.
If the merely physical conditions are such as the official reports show them to be, one can not refrain from wondering what an impartial survey would disclose as to intellectual, pedagogical, administrative and moral conditions.
The Board of Education with its present powers accomplishes little

more then to elect a superintendent once in three years, and the eafter confirm his appointments, the time between being used in "dickering" for patronage.
What the community needs is, either a board of education with larger powers, on no board at all. Inefficiency always results from a scattering of powers and responsibilities. Place power so the people can locate it, then it will be possible for the people to correct errors.
THE EVENING STAR AND
THE AIKEN HORROR
The editorial comment of most of the daily papers on the lynching of Demon Lowman, Clarence Lowman and Bertha Lowman at Aiken, S.C., has been satisfactory. This can not be said of an editorial in the Washington Evening Star of Saturday, October 9, 1926. While it characterized the lynching as being "in defiance of the statute law," and says that "mob law can not be permitted to supersede statute law in this country," it is principally devoted to apologizing for explaining avay, and excusing the act of the mob, by saying that it was "a manifestation of resentment at the judicial procedure," "a reflection of the fear entertained by a large proportion of the people that the technicalities of the law may prevent justice" and "that there is a certain degree of public impatience with the processes which shield those who are believed to be guilty."
All the proceedings had in these cases were under the laws of South Carolina.
The killed sheriff, a member of the Ku Klux Klan, met his fate, as the evidence showed, because he failed to disclose his authority to enter and search the house where the homicide occurred. The Supreme Court of South Carolina in passing upon the first trial, said that the trial judge erred in excluding from his charge, "the right of the defendants to protect themselves against search if they did not know that the parties making the search were officers, . . . they could stand on their rights as the occupants of the premises and protect their home from invasion, using so much force as was necessary, unless they knew that these persons were officers with the right to search."
That is not only the law of South Carolina, but the law wherever the common law provails. A man's house is his castle and nobody, unless specifically authorized thereto by lawful power, and making that authorization known, can enter it. Not President Coolidge, not the Commissioners of the District of Columbia, not the owners of the Evening Star. It is this fundamental right of defending one's premises against unwarranted invasion that the Star calls a "technicality."
It is a little singular that the Star should select the Aiken lynching, a most revolting occurrence, in a country where revolting occurrences are frequent, to read a homily on the laws, delays and legal technicalities. The Star has uttered no complaint against the de-

Of course, they are rich, and are powerfully connected socially, financially, politically and racially, and that has all in the world to do with the matter of delays and technicalities, and what constitutes a technicality, and who may invoke one.

THE TRAFFIC DIRECTOR'S EXERCISE OF POWER
The automobile accident which resulted in the death of a child of six years last week was most regrettable. No ordinary human being can repress a feeling of sorrow at the death in such a manner of one so young and innocent, nor fail to sympathize with the bereaved parents of the child.
The coroner's jury investigating the accident did not find that the speed limit of twenty-two miles had been exceeded. As a matter of fact, the operator of the machine testified that he was within the limit of speed, and his testimony was not disputed in any respect as to that statement, or as to any matter affecting his carefulness and sound discretion. Notwithstanding this affirmative testimony, the Director of Traffic revoked the operator's permit.
So far as the evidence shows, this action of the Traffic Director was arbitrary and unwarranted. It does not appear that the operator of the machine violated any of the traffic regulations.
The operator was a colored youth, and right there, it is to be suspected, is the basis of the Traffic Director's action. It is becoming more and more evident as time goes by that in this community there is growing a disposition to apply two standards of law enforcement: one to colored people and another to white people.
It is recognized that the traffic problem in the District of Columbia is not without its difficulties, and that the Traffic Director is entitled to the hearty co-operation of all citizens as long as he discharges his duties without fear or favor. Assuming, however, that the evidence is as it was published, and as herein stated, in revoking the license of the operator of the machine into which the child ran, the Traffic Director was guilty of rank injustice, and of abuse of power.
WHAT OTHER PAPERS SAY
Lynch Law in the South
Three Negroes were taken from jail at Alken, S.C., Friday and the same night a Negro was taken from jail at Dover, Tenn., and lynched. Both mobs were armed and masked; both Sheriffs plead that they were overpowered in jail; Coroners' juries promptly returned verdicts that the Negroes came to their deaths at the hands of "unknown parties." In both cases the law with due diligence had been put into operation and the prisoners were held in jail awaiting trial. For their purposes the South Carolina and Tennessee mobs did not need to know whether the three men and one woman were guilty or innocent; in defiance of the law and the courts they murdered the prisoners anyhow.
It is an old story. That is the disheartening part of it. There are sections of the South where the press and public.officials on occasion refuse to condone lynchings in any circumstances. But that does not stop lynchings. The only way to stop them is by the rigorous punishment of the lynchers. How often does that follow? What do South Carolina and Tennessee in these instances propose to do for the credit of the State in the vindication of the law?

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
To the Editor:
Your editorial deprecating the use of the word "nigger" should be repeated ever so often. It is strange that so many people who want to be respected for what they are educationally, morally or socially, habitually refer to members of their artificially classified racial group as "niggers."
The term is used by them to express enmity to an individual, or to several or more, who give some offense to them. In the best society, and among the gossipers at parties, and elsewhere this is done. I have always felt that to respect one's self and to assume a rightly indignant attitude and attack upon members of other groups who hurl the epithet that it is necessary to refrain from its use. When I hear a Colored man using the word I feel that he is forgetful of the thousands who apply the term to him just as rightfully as he in nearly every case applies it to some member linked into an ethnic relation with him. No matter how far some of us are removed from traditions of slavery we still suffer from the slave psychology that forces the unthinking one to consider himself and his kind as does his master or owner.
Truly yours.

KIDDIES' CORNER
C. LESLIE FRAZIER, Editor
THE DRED SCOTT DECISION
Dear Editor: Last week I asked you about the sentence "A Negro has no rights that a white man is bound to respect." When I saw that Justice Taney made it in giving the Dred Scott decision, I read the story and found that the prominence of the case was due to the decision of the United States Supreme Court which was delivered by Chief Justice Taney on March 6, 1857, in which important questions concerning slavery were decided.
Dred Scott was a slave. His owner lived in Missouri. He took Scott to Illinois, a free state, and then to Minnesota, a free territory, and then back to Missouri. Missouri was a slave state. Friends of Dred Scott claimed that he was a free man because he had lived in Illinois and Minnesota.
The Supreme Court of Missouri decided against him, and the United States Supreme Court upheld this decision. It decided that Scott was not a citizen, and in additional statements declared that a Negro was not considered in American law to be a man, but a chatel, meaning that he was no more than a horse, or cow, or sheep. In the statements the Supreme Court asserted that a Negro was "without rights or privileges except such as those who held the power, and the government might choose to grant him." This action was the same as saying that slavery was all right. It was one of the strong points that aided in bringing on the Civil War.
CLARICE O. WEBSTER(15) In proportion as we know ourselves, we are enabled to know others.
FROM A SGRAP BOOK
Dear Editor: My sister used to be a Tribune. All of the articles on the "Children's Page" (as the Kiddies' Corner used to be called) that she liked she cut out and put in her scrap book. We were looking in the book Sunday night and she suggested that I write you a letter. Here I am writing to you to say hello to the Tribunes and to copy from my sister's scrap book an article called "Mat Henson." "In the April, 1920, issue of the National Geographic Magazine, Donall B. MacMillan, paying a deep and sincere tribute to Matthew Henson, in an article under the heading of 'Peary as a Leader' has the following to say:
"And the Negro? He was indispensable to Peary and of more real value than the combined service of all four white men. With years of experience equal to that of Peary himself, an expert dogdriver, a master mechanic, physically strong, most popular with the Eskimos, talking the language like a native, clean, full of grit, he went to the pole with Peary because he was easily the most efficient of all of Peary's assistants." "The above was preceded by paragraphs stating that after reaching the north as far as the ship could go and when the journey began across land, Henson was the best man fitted for the lead." "Henson had been with Peary since his second expedition to Nicaragua, in 1887, and on all his Arctic expeditions except the first, in 1886. The leader considered him the best dog-driver living, except some of the best of the Eskimo hunters themselves.
"Mr. Henson has published a book called 'A Negro at the North Pole.'" This article interested me and perhaps it will interest other readers of the Kiddies' Corner.
Good-bye until a very early cate when I will write to you again.

1. I will never use the word "nigger."

3. I will use my eyes and ears to detect slander against my Race, and I will champion my Race wherever I may hear such slander.
4. I will be proud that I am a Negro because God made me one, and, being a Negro, I will do all that I can to add honor to my Race.
WANT MORE LETTERS
Dear Editor: I was glad to see so much news in our Corner last week. I hope that it will continue to grow. I would like to see more letters on the page, also more puzzles.
It has been some time since I have written to you. Perhaps you have forgotten me. Although I do not write to you, I read the Kiddies' Corner every week.
I am particularly interested in cross-word puzzles. I am a cross-word puzzle fan. Let us have some cross-words. I liked the way you had the words omitted in the sentences in the puzzle you published several weeks ago.
This seems to be a letter of I-wish-you-moulds.
If you do not hear from me again, I want you to know that I still read the Corner.

EDUCATION PAYS
Sometimes the school books may become tiresome to you. You will want to lay them aside to go to the movies or to go out to paly—but that will not be, the big thing to do.
Stick to your studies, and the hours that you spend learning something will some day pay you far more than you can imagine.
Joel Chandler Harris author of the "Unele Remus" stories said: "I know a young Negro who is a good Latin scholar and he helps his father make boots and shoes. This may be pretty bad, but if any on can show me that he makes a worse shoe with his Latin than he would without it. I shall turn a reader ear to complaints against the higher education of the Negro than at present strikes me as far fetched."
You have read this man's stories and enjoyed them. Go back to the paragraph above, read it again, and let it be a warning, a sermon, and a lesson to you.

There are over a half million members in the United States and of this number over 34,000 are colored. Besides members in this country there are Y.W.C.A.'s in 48 different countries.
