HOW
MAN COMMIT
JUMPING FROM
WASHNGTON
Blake Ward, 25, of 742 Thirteenth Street, Northeast, committed suicide by jumping from a window at the top of the Washington Monument. Monday. He was killed instantly. A tag, tied by a stout cord, was in the lapel of his coat; and by this he was identified. Despondency over lack of work and sickness was given as the probable cause of Ward's action.
Apparently, Ward landed feet first, and then only outward signs of his 504-foot drop from the observation tower to the ground were shown in his legs. One heel was ripped from his shoe. Later examination at the morgue, however, showed that most of the bones of his body were broken.
Ward is the first colored person to commit suicide from the Monument. There have been three other suicides in the history of the Monument. Two other men, since 1923, have leaped from the Monument to their deaths. The first suicide was a woman, who, in 1923, leaped down the elevator shaft from a stairway landing near the top of the monument.
Ward went about his deed with apparent calm and deliberation. He spent some time at the top of the shaft before the jump, gazing with interest from all the windows. He engaged a Department of Agriculture man in conversation, asking him to point out the chief sights in the panorama below. He then thanked the man, placed his hands on the window sill, sprang upward and hurled himself through the opening. A guard and an electrician were on duty at the observation platform at the time, but neither of them saw the man jump.
Guards recalled seeing Ward enter the Monument during the early part of the afternoon. No other visitors arrived at that time. Ward walked up the stems, reached the top platform at 1:40 p.m., and after looking around, took his fatal leap.
Ward made his home with his brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Samuel, 724 Thirteenth Street, Northeast. His mother, Mrs. P. Ward, is in Huntsville, Ala., which is Ward's home. He had been 14 Washington but two years. His body has been shipped to Huntsville for the burial.
WHITES STEAL PRESCRIPTIONS FROM DOCTOR
The theft of a number of prescriptions from the office of Dr. William J. Howard, 100 Massachusetts Avenue, Northwest. was solved with the arrest last Tuesday of Raymond F. Thurston, 40; and his wife, Mrs. Pearl Virginia Thurston, 40, both white of 623 Second Street, Northwest.
The couple were arrested by Headquarters Detectives Charles Warfield and Robert Sanders. Thurston is alleged to have signed the name of Dr. Howard to several prescriptions, which were filled at local drug stores. His wife, police allege, sold a quantity of narcotics obtained on the prescriptions.
The theft of the prescription blanks occurred more than ten days ago. Returning from Freedmen's Hospital, Dr. Howard found the woman waiting in his office. He put her out at the time, but suspected nothing. Several days later a pharmacist telephoned him in regard to one of the alleged forged prescriptions. Dr. Howard then advised the police, and the arrest of the Thurstons followed.
Thurston is charged wit' forgery. His wife is charged with violating the. Harrison narcotic
law.

AIKEN PROSECUTOR IS READY TO PRESS CHARGES
COLUMBIA, S.C., Nov. 24—Bert D. Carter, who prosecuted the three Lowmans for murder and has been criticised as not having taken sufficient precaution to protect them, said Tuesday that he will prosecute their lynchers, if the latter are caught, to the utmost of his ability.
In explanation of why, after the Lowmans were taken from the Aiken jail and shot down in a pine thicket two miles away, he did not question the jail prisoners, Mr. Carter said he was told by some officer that the prisoners all agreed they could not identify any of the mob.
Eight of these prisoners since have made 24 idavits identifying members of the group that went to the cells of Demon, Clarence and Bertha Lowman and released them to the mob. Among the eight prisoners are Lucy Mooney, 14-yard-old white girl, and Charles E. Lee, white bootleger, both of whom swore that the men who went to the cells of the Lowmans included Sheriff Nollie Robinson; the jailer, Rupert Taylor, and J. P. Hart, Governor's Constable.

The three Lowmans were lynched on October 8 after Special Judge Samuel Lanham had directed a verdict of acquittal in the case of Demon Lowman. They were on trial for the murder of Sheriff H. H. Howard. It was their second trial, the State Supreme Court having granted them a new trial after all three had been convicted and sentenced to hang.
TEACHER SUES FOR CHILDREN'S MAINTENANCE
Mrs. Leola B. Lomax, a public school teacher, 1441 S Street, Northwest, filed suit Tuesday in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia against her husband, George C. Lomax for maintenance for their two minor children, Vincent Lomax, 7, and Lucille Lomax, 6.
Mr. Lomax is employed at the city post office as a mail carrier and receives a salary of $175 a month but has refused since June 1, last, to support their minor children, his wife charges in the bill of complaint.
They lived together from the time of their marriage in Baltimore, Md., December 27, 1918, to January 11, 1925. Mrs. Lomax says when she left her husband on account of alleged cruel treatment.
He refused to support her and their two minor children, Mrs. Lomax declares, and on April 25, 1925, she filed a suit in the District Court against him for a limited divorce and was awarded $40 a month temporary alimony. November 18, 1925, her husband agreed to continue his payments of $40 a month and she consented to the dismissal of this suit.
Mr. Lomax made payments regularly until June 1, 1926. Since that date his payments have not botaled more than $50, she claims.
Mrs. Lomax is a public school teacher. She receives a salary of $171 a month. She lives at No. 1441 S Street, Northwest, with her aunt, her grandmother, and her two minor children. The two children are attending school. While Mrs. Lomax is at school, the adult members of her family look after the two children.
She asks the court to order her husband to pay her a reasonable amount pending her suit for maintenance and upon a final hearing to order him to pay her such sums periodically as would he allowed her as permanent alimony in case of divorce for the maintenance of their two minor children.

BISONS TRIUMPH FOR FIRST TIME IN FIVE YEARS. LARGE CROWD JAMS NEW STADIUM
By Louis R. Lautier
Howard University regained some of its football prestige lost by repeated Lincoln victories, over it when the big Blue and White eleven defeated the Orange and Blue team Thanksgiving Day by a score of 32 to 0.
Notwithstanding the size of the score, the game was replete with thrills. Jack Coles, Howard quarterback, was spectacular in his carrying of the ball. Time after time he would spin about in his tracks, pick an opening through the Lincoln line and dash through it for a goodly gain. At other times, "Tick" Smith would hit off-tackle or Dan Brown would rip through the Lincoln line for long gains.
In the final quarter when Howard had resorted to the overhead game, Dennis Simpson, who had been substituted at left end for Sallie, thrilled the crowd when he received a 30-yard forward pass from Ross and raced 20 yards for the final touchdown of the game. It was a difficult catch and came after Simpson had missed two chances.
Lincoln took its licking standing up and fighting back. It was outclassed from the kick-off, but showed gameness and fought勇敢ly to the end.
The game was played in the new Howard university stadium, which was dedicated before game time. The bowl with its temporary circus seats was well filled. A crowd estimated at more than 15,000 witnessed the contest.

FIVE TEXANS ARE HELD FOR MOB VIOLENCE
HOUSTON, Tex., November 17—Five young white men, alleged to be the night raiders who shot and killed three colored persons in Fort Bend County Wednesday night, Saturday faced murder charges.
The five in jail are: H. B. Crowder, Jr.; John Crowder, "Buster" Roberts and Joe Rose, of Katy, and W. H. Holden of Houston. Roberts was arrested and taken to jail by his father, a deputy sheriff.
The prisoners were held in connection with the deaths of Robert Brown, Sally Brown and Scott Evans; H. B. Crowder, Jr., is charged in one complaint with burning the woman to death.
Officers advanced the theory that the triple killing grew out of the death of Wallace Crowder, a brother of H. B. Crowder, Jr. He was killed a week ago by Tennor Ivancolored tenant farmer, following an argument, which began at a ranch house dance.

NEWSBOY'S FUND DONATED TO BY JOHN R. HAWKINS
Newsies! Get your pennies together! Here's something new for you and worth while too.
A John R. Hawkins, Jr. Memorial Newbsboys' Savings Fund, donated by John R. Hawkins, president of the Prudential Savings Bank, and sponsored by Mr. William Place, has been established here for the purpose of inspiring thrift in the newsboys.
The plan is co-operative. A group of fifty newsboys is being organized, each one of whom must deposit a dollar a month in the Prudential Savings Bank, for over a period of five years. Mr. Hawkins will deposit each year, the sum of one hundred dollars under the name of the John R. Hawkins, Jr. Memorial Newbsboys' Savings Fund. At the end of five years, the money will be shared among the newsboys who have kept faith with the thrift plan.
This means that $500 will be desposited by Mr. Hawkins in the Prudential Bank over a period of five years the first hundred dollars of which has already been set aside for the purpose. It means that at the end of five years, each newsboy will have deposited sixteen dollars in the Prudential Bank, on which he will receive 19 per cent interest, or about thirty dollars making a total of ninety dollars to his credit.
Mr. Hawkins, when approached by Mr. Place, stated: "I'll be glad to contribute to an a fund. I was once a poor ambitious boy myself. I have a bout reached the point in life where I get more pleasure in going to a worthy cause than in making more money." The fund has been named a memory of the late son of Mr. Hawkins, who died several years ago.

HOWARD PROF. LOSES SUIT
In a suit in which fraud was charged, Justice Jennings Bailey in equity court No. 2 of the District Supreme Court. November 18, ordered a deed given by Wright R. Harrison and his wife, Delay A. Harrison, conveying premises No. 1742 Oregon Avenue, Northwest, to Edward P. Davis, professor of German at Howard University, set aside.
In their bill of complaint, Mr. and Mrs. Harrison stated that they were financially embarrassed and obtained a loan of $800 from Professor Davis on April 5, 1922, to keep their property from being sold at public auction. They alleged that he compelled them to execute a deed in fee simple conveying their interest in the property-underlying $1,000 first and second trusts on the property amounted to $5,100 only and the property was reasonably worth $7,500.
Accrued interest, unpaid taxes and unpaid monthly installments on the trusts were less than $500, they declared, and these items were paid out of the $800 loan and the balance applied on the second-trust. After the property was deeded to him, Professor Davis leased it to Mr. and Mrs. Harrison at $75 a month. This monthly rental was to be applied to the payment of interest on the first trust and the balance to the principal and interest on the second trust. At the hearing of the case; the testimony showed that Mr. Harrison went to W. H. Tucker, a real estate agent, and applied for a loan of $800. Acting as his broker, Mr. Tucker secured a loan of $1,000 from Professor Davis and charged $200 as a bonus for securing the loan. Harrison was given $800 with which to pay the more.
Professor Davis was advised that Harrison was poor pay and concluded that he would take a deed to protect himself, giving Harrison a lease. When Harrison defaulted under this lease, Professor Davis got a judgment in the municipal court and put Harrison out of his own house. Harrison and his wife moved to Deanwood. The original suit that was filed by Mr. and Mrs. Harrison through Attorney C. H. Hemans. This suit was dismissed on an order signed by Attorney Hemans. Mr. Harrison claimed that he had not authorized any one to dismiss the suit. He than retained Attorney John H. Wilson and the usit was filed a second time and brought to trial.

During an altercation at 619 Fifty-fourth Street, northeast, October 17, Dorothy Jackson shot Harriet Monroe with a .52 caliber United States Army pistol said to have been given her by Woody McCormick, for whom the police are looking.
According to witnesses, the two women engaged in an argument about Ulysses Grant Tucker, with whom both of them had lived. Tucker is a married man, but his wife is in Atlantic City, N. J., he told the coroner. He is a laborer at the War Department. The dead woman had lived with him first. The Jackson woman succeeded her. In her absence, the Jackson woman claimed Tucker had permitted his former sweetheart to wear her clothes. This argument led to the fatal shooting.
Harriet Monroe was removed to the Freedman's Hospital on October 17. Pneumonia developed. She was apparently recovering from the pneumonia when an operation was performed to reduce pressure on her spinal cord. Dr. Elijah Henry testified at the inquest. The shot resulted in a paralysis of the woman from the chest down. The gunshot wound was the cause of death, he told the coroner's jury.
F Street, Northwest, testified for the plaintiffs. He drew the deed conveying the property to Professor Davis. Disbursement charges were filed against him by Professor Davis, who alleged that Attorney Neal obtained facts while representing him which he used against him in this case. The disbursement proceedings were dismissed.
Justice Bailey held that the deed was simply a mortgage and declared that if counsel in the case could not reach an agreement on the amount of rents and the money due between Mr. Harrison and Professor Davis, he would refor the case to the auditor.
Mr. and Mrs. Harrison were represented by Attorney John H. Wilson. Professor Davis was represented by Attorney George E. C. Hayes and Ernest J. Davis.

Justice Wendell P. Stafford on Tuesday granted a decree to Samuel F. Tyre, 1920 Twelfth Street, Northwest, annulling his marriage to Hattie Sylvester Tyre, 1228 U Street, Northwest.
The Justice decided that at the time of their marriage, Mrs. Hattie Sylvester Tyre had a living husband from whom she had not been legally separated.
Mrs. Hattie Sylvester Tyre claimed that her marriage to Albert Sylvester was void because at the time of their marriage under the laws of Illinois he was prohibited from re-marrying. Counsel for Mr. Tyre, however, proved that this provision in the Illinois statues had been repealed and that marriages in violation of this law had been validated and confirmed by an act of the Illinois legislature in 1925.
Samuel F. Tyree was the third husband of Mrs. Hattie Sylvester Tyree. She first married Harry Mallory. He died in October, 1914. She then married Albert Sylvester in Chicago, Ill., July 6, 1921. July 9, 1924, she married Samuel F. Tyree without being divorced from Albert Sylvester. Mr. Tyree was represented by Attorneys C. H. Hemands and William E. Lewis, Jr., Mrs. Tyree was represented by Attorneys George E. C. Hayes, and Ernest J. Davis.

WHY OUR DEATH RATE IS HIGH
By Charles A. Allen; M.D.
1525 5th Street, Northwest.
Our death rate, unfortunately is high; much higher than that of the white race. In a series of articles I shall give some reasons as observed in my practice of a good many years.
Our peculiar attitude towards our bodies, in my judgment, is one of the most important reasons for our high death rate. We expect too much from them; we do not understand their needs; we neglect them, then we are surprised and wait when they fail to function. When we consider the human body as a complicated machine and give it the care that it is entitled to, we will be astonished at the good that results.
Machines have a definite value. Some are expensive, others are not. Their value is dependent on many factors such as the quality of work they perform, etc. So is the human machine. It has a value in dollars and cents. If it produces or earns $25 per week, it represents an investment outlay, of say $20,000 at the usual rate of interest for one year; if more, then a higher amount.
This machine, according to the life scale, should function not for 15 years as the Rolls Royce automobile costing $15,000 but for 40 or 50 years. So you see the human machine is very valuable from an economic standpoint. Unlike the Rolls Royce, however, there are no replacement parts. It is an orphan machine. An organ permanently damaged, that is the heart, remains damaged. With damaged, organs, its capacity for work is diminished.
Yet it is the custom to allow this important revenue, producing machine to run itself year by year without being overhaulled, by an expert—a doctor of medicine—to

detect the effect of the wear and tear of life. Of course, the vital organs do their best heroically under the most improper conditions regarding food, light, work, bacterial, etc. They help each other out, they use up their reserve powers, then they give up the job. No other important machine is subjected to the gross neglect that we give the human body. Why wonder that this machine functions ineffectively or that its existence is cut short by many years? Periodic physical examination by a physician is the remedy. Injury to, or lack of function of the vital parts are detected early when treatment is of value. An examination is not very expensive. It is good business to spend money for the upkeep of valuable machines or property. Isn't it better business to spend money for the upkeep of the human body?
Be examined now, and prolong your efficiency and your life.
NEW TRIAL FOR MEN FORCED TO ADMIT MURDER
JACKSON, Miss., Nov. 18—John Fisher, was granted a new trial by the State Supreme Court last Monday on the ground that he had been forced by torture to confess to murder. The sheriff of Coahoma County testified that Fisher had confessed after several men at the jail had poured water into the prisoner's nose. He said he had been called to jail to hear the confession. Ellis Hicks, who said he aided in the administration of the "water cure," as it was termed, also testified as a witness for Fisher. The prosecution sought to show that the confession had been given voluntarily, but the Supreme Court in overruling the lower court and granting a new trial held that Fisher's constitutional rights had been violated.
Fisher had been convicted and sentenced to be hanged after the trial Judge had admitted his confession to taking part in the murder of Grove C. Nicholas, a white man. Another colored man who was acquitted in the case, was afterward lynched and the sheriff was indicted for defection of duty in connection with the lynching and fined $500.

Mr. McEachin is a specialist in psychiatry and testified to the insanity of Rucker, and that he was not conscious of the killing.
The testimony of Dr. McEachin was given consideration by the court and will doubtless be of considerable weight in the conclusion of the case. Dr. L. N. Yost the state specialist pronounced Rucker sane.
The "West Virginian" published at Fairmont, W. Va., has given much space in its columns to the case and has spoken most highly of the training and ability of Dr. McEachin.

HIGH SCHOOL TEAMS PLAY TIE GAME
Dunbar and Armstrong Fight to Standstill Before Large Crowd
Sam Lacy
The 1926 Scholastic Football Championship was undecided last Monday when the Dunbar and Armstrong teams battled to a 6-6 draw. Incidentally it was a break of the game that paved the way for each team's score.
From the opening kick off when Dabney, Armstrong fullback sent the oval end over down to Hill at Dunbar's 28 yard line, until the final whistle the game was replete with thrills. The long run, the good kick, the clean tackle, the nerve-racking break, and everything found in a worth while football game had its place in a perfectly spent afternoon. Both teams were brimful of fight, and with upward of 2500 high school coads looking on, nothing could be expected, but that the boys would do their stuff.
Whether or not Beason, Armstrong halfback had any especial interest in the assemblage could not be determined. Nor could the writer induce Fowler, Dunbar end to disclose the identity of his inspiration. However, these two boys surely did their share. Though neither of them were the scorers for their team, each stood out on a field where it was hard to recognize an outstanding star.
Had there been anything to hinder Fowler's playing in the second half, Beason would undoubtedly have run wild, and were it not for Beason, it is most obvious that the Armstrong offense would have been smothered. Repeatedly Beason, from kick formation, would skirt the end or breeze outside tackle, and almost as repeatedly, Fowler, if he was not properly taken care of, would break through the interference and smear the play for a substantial loss.
Armstrong's score came as the result of two bad passes from Coates, Dunbar center. On the third play of the second quarter, Dixon. Tech quarterback punted outside on the champion's 24-yard line. Whitted could not gain through the line, and when Coates high pass struck Hill on the shoulder the ball bounded into the scrimmage. At the bottom of the pile, hugging the coveted pigskin, was Captain Ford. Holding for the small gain of 4 yards in 3 plays, Dunbar forced Dabney to attempt a place kick from the 30-yard line. The ball went low and all but rolled over the goal line. On their 20-yard line, Dunbar sent Beckwitt back to purr out of danger, but lo, Coates' second successive inaccurate pass went over the kicker's head and between the goal posts. Here Beckwitt pulled the 'bone' that lost the victory for his team. Instead of falling on the ball or picking it up and thereby allowing a safety, he stood by while. Mavritell fell on it for a touchdown. Dabney's place kick for the extra point was blocked.
Soon after the second half began another break presented itself. This time in favor of the Red and Black. It was Turney's turn to pull an ivory stunt so he let Beckwith's punt hit his knee, and when he kicked the ball into the arms, of Simon, Dunbar left-tackle who was charging down the field, the Tech halfback paved the way for that worthy to crown himself with glory in placing his team's offense on the orange and blue 12-yard line. From here Sewell got 3 yards at center. Hill and Beckwith got 6 at right guard, and when Sewell peeled off 6 more yards at center the ball was on the Tech 4-yard line. On the next play Sewell went over with room to spare. Fowler's place kick like Dabney's was blocked. From then on it was battle between Beason and Fowler, a speed demon versus a deadly tackle, and let me say here, it was superb.
In the latter stages, Armstrong
uncovered an aerial attack which
would have proven very effective
had it been tried earlier. However,
had the offensive system
been changed from running to pas-
sing we should not have been able
to witness Beason's running and
Fowler's tackling.

THE SPORT REVIEW
LOUIS R. LAUTIER, Sports Editor
THE REFLECTOR
"What's the matter with football officials?" An article written by Theodore R. Walls, Lincoln line coach, under this heading, was published in the Pittsburgh Courier issue of November 20. Its purpose is explained as "a plea for better trained and more well informed football officials," and uses as an example for the urge, the recent Morgan-Lincoln football game in Baltimore.
Apparently Mr. Wall's intention was to attack the gentlemen in charge of the game for having allowed Morgan a touchdown following the unusual occurrence in which Martin played the important role. To be exact in quoting Mr. Walls, his description follows:
"The game is notable for one incident which occurred during the fourth quarter. It created quite a furore and almost led to a clash between the two teams. Hill 6 Morgan got away with a forward pass and advanced the ball to the 85-yard line. Just as he was about to be tackled by Grasty, Lincoln tackle playing roving center and Hibbett, Lincoln's quartarback, Julie Martin, on Lincoln bench, ran out and tackled him. This, of course, was contrary to the rules, and the penalty for such an offense is half the distance from where the play ended to the goal. The referee, however, differing with Mr. Spalding, carried the ball across the goal for a touchdown. In order to avoid further trouble, Lincoln's representatives abided by the decision, and thus was recorded Morgan's only scope during the entire game."
The Lincoln coach slightly mis-represents in his above analysis, as eye witnesses to the affair are aware of the fact that there was no Lincoln man within 10 yards of Hill when he was confronted by the ineligible Martin, and since Hill is by no means a slow man, Mr. Walls is indeed unfair in saying he was "about to be tackled". In so much as this gentleman has discovered a rule covering such a play, he has accomplished more than any of our leading officials. Questioning each of our city's best officials individually the writer understands that no unblessed refeere could have rendered a different decision, nor could any sportsmanlike coach have expected another result. Of course while, as Coach Walls says, Mr. Jackson
HAMPTON COACH SEES NEW SPORTSMANSHIP AT A. AND T. COLLEGE
HAMPTON COACH SEES NEW SPORTSMANSHIP AT A. AND T. COLLEGE
"The spirit shown at the North Carolina Agricultural and Technical College at Greensboro, N. C., in the Hampton game there last Saturday was all we could have asked for in every way, both in the treatment and courtesy given our team on and off the field, and also in the consideration shown the officials."
That is the statement of Charles H. Williams, Hampton coach and secretary-treasurer of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association, made in a letter under date of November 15, 40 Benjamin Washington, a member of the Eastern Board of Football officials, with reference to the situation at the North Carolina Agricultural College following the suspension of two students for participation in an attack on L. U. Gibson, of Baltimore, Md., after a game between that school and Virginia Union at Greensboro on October 30, in which Mr. Gibson was the referee.
Mr. Williams adds that personally he feels that North Carolina Technical and Agricultural College "is on the upward road with reference to sportsmanship." He states that he would be glad to present to the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association at its meeting December 10 and 11, any suggestions or recommendations that the Eastern Board of Football Officials might care to make.
ST. PAUL SWAMPS
THYNE 25 TO 7
RUSSELL FIELD, Lawrenceville, Va., Nov. 20—Uncovering her Thanksgiving formations for the first time, St. Paul beat Thyne Institute of Chase City, Va., 25 to 7, in a snapping game here, this afternoon. Thyne was outgeneraled, outmancovered and outweighed, but the alert and aggressive youngsters played a stellar game from beginning to end and lost fighting.
The game was hard and clean and it was featured by the brilliant aerial attack of the visitors and the well-timed and effective cross-bucks of the Tigers.
The visitors scored in the third period when A. Mitchell scooped up a free ball and raced forty yards for a touchdown. Smith, the visitors' star of the game, added the extra point by a beautiful stop.
THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1926
may have differed from Mr. Spalding himself, it happens that the rules are drawn up by the Football Rules Committee, and they allow the referee to use his own discretion and good judgment on plays not covered by the rules. On only one occasion has such a play as the one in question been paralleled. In the fall of 1920 a Naval Academy substitute entered the playing field and tackled a Great Lakes Training Station halfback who had escaped the entire Middy Team, and was on his way to a touchdown. In this instance the referee awarded a touchdown
Mr. Walls contends that the penalty should have been half the distance from the point of action to the goal. Had such a penalty been inflicted it would have hurt the offending team less than the offended, because Morgan may not have scored. Then with this as a criterion it would be an incentive for coaches in the future to instruct their substitutes to take advantage of such a loophole. Surely any player would much rather enter the field and stop an opposing player on his way to score, and cause the penalty rather than allow him to keep on unmolested. If such a rule could be found it would be better abolished as will no doubt the one which caused Harvard to lose last Saturday's game to Yale.
Yale scored a touchdown after a long punt by Captain Ceddy drove the ball from deep Harvard territory to apparent safety far past midfield. The ball was called back when it was discovered that a Yale substitute had trotted on the field in the middle of play. When Coady kicked again the Yale line smashed through, blocked the kick and Sturhahn recovered the ball over Harvard's goal for a touchdown. Had it not been for this touchdown Harvard would have won.
Critics favoring a change in the rules say that Harvard in effect, was penalized a touchdown because a substitute caused 12 Yale men to be on the field during the play. Yale suffered no penalty and resisted. and rose to fame as one kick. Some critics suggested the rules he changed to allow the original kick to count as a play, disregarding the illegal substitution.
We regret Mr. Wall's stand in this matter and indeed are sorry that a coach of one of our leading Athletic Bodies should assume such an attitude of sportsmanship.
HAMPTON DEFEATS JOHNSON C. SMITH

HAMPTON, Va., Nov. 24—The
Hampton Institute eleven defeated
Johnson C. Smith College of
Charlotte, N.C., Saturday by a
score of 43-0.
The game started off as though it was going to be a battle, as the first string men were held to one touchdown in the first quarter. The Seadilders, however, struck their stride and amassed 21 points before half of the second quarter had passed away. The second team was substituted for the first. Their driving power and aggressiveness was on a par with the first team's.

TALLADEGA, Ala. Nov. 24—In a game replete with thrills, and which was not decided until the last minute of play, Tuskegee eked out a 28 to 27 victory against Talladega College on Silsby Athletic Field here Saturday afternoon. It was one of the most stubbornly fought games in which the two teams have ever engaged. The annual clash brought supporters of both teams from Birmingham, Aniston, Selma, Tuskegee, Apelika, Montgomery, and other points, who came to see what was said to be the twenty-third gridiron tilt between Talladega and Tuskegee. In two minutes after the opening of the game Cooper, ace in the Talladega backfield, heaved a pass to Poole, who sped away for a touchdown. Cooper added the extra point. Tuskegee soon evened the score when Bailey, the Crimson's team's plunging halfback crossed for a touchdown. Stevenson contributed the extra point.
In the second quarter Talladega widened her scoring margin by two touchdowns, while Tuskegee added only one. Joyner scoring. Talladega's failure to add a point after scoring one of her touchdowns gave the local team a 6-point lead. The quarter ended 20 to 14 in favor of Talladega.
Soon after the opening of the third quarter, Tuskegee scored a-
SIMPSON AND CAMPBELL
NOT FIRED-FROM TEAM
Neither Louis F. Campbell nor Dennis Simpson was fired from the Howard University football team as was reported two weeks ago.
Coach Louis L. Watson, upon his return from Atlanta, Ga., where the Howard eleven defeated Atlanta University by a score of 7 to 0, denied the report that Campbell and Simpson, Howard ends, had been dismissed from the team.
Neither Campbell nor Simpson was taken with the Howard eleven to Atlanta. The two players watched the Lincoln-Morgan game in Baltimore from the sidelines last Saturday.
The failure of these players to leave with the team on its southern trip gave rise to the report that they had been fired from the squad. Simpson was said to have been asked to turn in his uniform because of an alleged remark he was said to have made with reference to fraternal differences on the team. Campbell was charged with breaking the rules. Coach Watson would not give any reason for the failure of these men to make the trip to Atlanta. He simply stated they had not been asked to turn in their uniforms and that they were still members of the team. Campbell admitted that he had been left at home for breaking training rules following the game at Wilberforce University. Simpson said that he was not taken with the team because the coach did not like his end playing in the Wilberforce game.
DOUGLASS HIGH SWAMPS ARMSTRONG
DOUGLASS HIGH SWAMPS ARMSTRONG
By Sam Lacy
BALTIMORE, Md., Nov. 12—In a game that was finished under a cover of darkness, the local Douglass High School football team whitewashed the Armstrong Tech eleven here today 19-0. The visitors were completely outclassed, and from the start, the outcome was never in doubt.
The Monumental City lads ran at will and passed with deadly accuracy. Their only outstanding weakness was the lack of sportsmanship on the part of their captain. Veney, seemed to have the opinion that he was in one of those old-time battle-royals rather than a modern football game.
His deliberate slugging was so obvious that at one time he was seen to strike Dabney no less than three times after the Armstrong fullback had been tackled. Such conduct is disgraceful and characterizes anything but a good athlete. That the fine Douglass football team should suffer at having such an unsportmanly captain presents a sad case.
Douglass scored her three touchdowns in the first, second and final quarters after long runs of Phil Williams. The first score was registered after Janifer punted from behind his goal posts to the 40-yard line, when on the first play Williams skirted his left end for a touchdown. His drop-kick for the extra point was wide. Obtaining the ball on their 25-yard line, in the second quarter after R. Williams stole a completed forward pass from E. Johnson, the Gibonites began a march that carried them to another score.
Phil Williams again featured in the advance, getting 14 yards at left tackle and later 26 yards at right tackle to place the ball on the Armstrong 3-yard line, from where Rhodes carried it over. The forward pass for the extra point was incomplete. Then in the final period Douglass started goalward from midfield, and through the consistent gaining of Williams and Rhodes they worked their way to Armstrong's 2-yard line. Bruce scored through the line as the sun went down with Armstrong's hopes. R. Williams' kick from placement made the nineteenth point.
The line-up:
Armstrong(0) - Douglass(19)
E. Johnson - L.E. - Savage
Smith - L.T. - Payne
Jordan - L.G. - Venys(e)
Barnes - Center - Young
Lonésome(c) - R.G. - Collins
Gray - R.T. - Moore
Mavritte - R.E. - Cooper
Dixon - Q.B. - R. Williams
F. Johnson - L.H. - Bruce
Janifer - R.H. - P. Williams
Turner - F.B. - Rhodes
Touchdowns: P. Williams; Bruce
and Rhodes. Goal after touchdown: R. Williams (placement).
Referee, Jackson (Union); Umpire, Drew, (Amherst); Headlinesman, Wright (Howard). Time of quarters, 12 minutes.
Substitutes: Armstrong; Brockenburr for Gray; Simms for Barnes; Beason for Janifer; Dabney for Turner; Branch for Brockenburr; Turner for F. Johnson; Barrenger for Dabney; Dabney for Dixon; F.

TEDDY-BEAR-STONEWALL GAME ENDS IN ROW
With only a few minutes to play and the Teddy Bear eleven, of Northwest on the long end of a 6-to-0 score, the Stonewall A. C. of Southeast, scored a touchdown, making the score 6-0.
A row occurred when the headlinesman ruled a Teddy Bear player off-side during the try-for-point sorrimage, thereby attempting to award the extra and winning point to the Stonewall club, although the other two officials stated that they did not see any player offside.
Manager Tatum of the Teddy Bear aggregation, protested the ruling and withdrew his team from the field.
The writer received the word that the official in questoin is connected with the Stonewall A. C., and it is charged that he had placed a bet on the game. This is given as the reason for what is claimed to be an unfair ruling in favor of the Stonewall club.
These two independents had played a very evenly contested game up to this point.
ALEXANDRIA ROAMERS
ALEXANDRIA, VA., Nov. 22
The Roamer Athletic Club of Virginia of this city, won their fifth straight football game here on last Sunday when they defeated the recently organized Willow Tree eleven of Washington, 26 to 0.
The Willow Tree team fought gamely but were unable to withstand the line charges of Shanklin, Roamer back, Burke, halfback, and Johnson, halfback. The young Roamer backs, Taylor and Miller, gave good accounts of themselves making four successive first downs in the first quarter. The entire Roamer line played excellent ball.
The Southwest lads were speedy on offensive play.
The game was clean throughout, and was referred by Norman D. Murray of Washington, D.C.
GEORGETOWN TO PLAY TEDDY-BEARS SUNDAY
The speedy Georgetown Athletic Club's football eleven will play the Teddy Bears on Sunday, November 23 on the Monument lot at 2:30. The Georgetown team boasts of such stars as Joe Dodson, formerly Howard halfback, and Dorcey, ex-Armstrong high school star, in the backfield as their means of offense, while the Bears place their dependence in Blue, also a former Armstrong star, Steve and Hamilton. The game is expected to be a thriller.
SOUTHERN ASSOCIATION
TO HOLD ANNUAL MEET
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., Nov. 20—The annual meeting of the Southeastern Intercollegiate Athletic Association will be held at the Florida A. & M. College, Tallahassee, Florida, on December 11, R. S. Darnaby, secretary-treasurer announced today.
By Dr. E. B. Henderson
(President Eastern Board on
Officials.)
Q. Do the rules provide a penalty for failure to provide for the protection of the officials?
A. No. But it is understood that the officials are to be accorded every courtesy and convenience possible. Some schools are exceptionally thoughtful concerning the treatment of officials. They are considered as guests of the institution in every sense of the word before and after a losing or winning battle. The attitude of the school is reflected in the attitude of the team on the field.
Football is a game for gentlemen and not brow-beating cursing bullies and low breeds. Yet there are teams showing every mark of bad training and low culture in their actions on and off the field. They do and say everything short of an offense that would bring a penalty for the action. This in turn affects spectators and alumni so that they harbor primitive resentments against members of the team and officials.
There are some coaches, trainers, and college educators whose presence with the team has bad influence on sportsmanship, and the training of young men to be educated gentlemen. Of course we who have been in the game know it is almost impossible to eradicate the mucker tendency and inborn crookedness of some by wholesome environment and training. I have noted that muckers in football and stealers against the rules in the game are about the same characters in professional or business pursuits in later life. Other officials have observed likewise.
Regarding the unfortunate happening to a prominent official last week, the writer holds the college authorities responsible for the safety of the men who work in the game. The emotions of a crowd of individuals trained in the environment of a lynching atmosphere are likely to vent themselves oh an official at any time. I have seen this happen many times and only proper police or school protection has prevented serious mishaps to officials. To my mind any instructor of youth or supervisor of such instruction who by word, deed, or attitude abets injuries or injury to officials is unworthy of his job, and for the sake of the training of youth, he should be dispensed with.
Q—Is a five-yard penalty given for the second and third forward incomplete forward passes in a series of four downs?
A.—Not always. When a pass becomes incomplete by reason of an originally eligible player touching it after another eligible player of the side making the pass touches it and before an opponent has touched it, the penalty is only a down even if it is the second incomplete pass. The rule makers slipped a eog if they intended the penalty of five yards to cover all incomplete passes. Note that the penalty for violation of Rule XVII, Section 7 is the same as Section 3 (a) and not the penalty of Section 4.
Q.—How may one become a member of the Eastern Board of Officials?
A.—By making application to the organization through its president—the writer—and securing satisfactory letters attesting to the efficiency of the work of the applicant in games by two members of the Eastern Board of Officials.
Q...May a captain call for time and remove a player after each

scrimimage at the close of a half as frequently as he desires?
A.—No. If the evident intent is to conserve what "remaining time there is, the referee should warn the captain on the first offense and thereafter instruct the timekeeper not to stop the watch.
Q.—If slugging or unnecessary roughness be called against a team on the try for point following touchdown what is the penalty?
A.—The point is made or lost depending on who offends. For "slugging" the player is removed and the distance penalty for either offense is stepped off on the next kick-off.
Q.—If a player comes into the field after signals are called, what is the penalty?
A.—Five yards for delaying the game if the referee stops the game or if the player gets in the way of the play in any manner.
Q.—When a player with the ball is thrown to the ground, is the ball dead?
A.—Not unless he is in the grasp of an opponent when he strikes the ground. If the whistle of the referee has not sounded he may get up and run, but to avoid injury, some players are coached not to run after a hard tackle in close line play.
Q.—A forward passer is knocked to the ground not in grasp of an opponent and while on his back throws the ball. The ball strikes the ground to the side and a player of the offense runs with it to the goal line. What is the ruling?
A. This would depend upon the ruling of the referee as to where the ball struck. If it were forward and not directly lateral it could be called a deliberate grounding of the ball and bring a fifteen-yard penalty. If the pass was a lateral one the side recovering could, after the run, claim a touchdown for recovering a loose ball.

CARLISLES LOSE OPENING GAME TO ATHENIANS
By Sam Lacy
BALTIMORE, Md., Nov. 15—Staging a second-half rally that swept the Carlisle lead into oblivion the Baltimore Athensians won their opening game of the 1927 basketball season here last Friday night by a score of 24-24.
Before a crowd that jammed every inch of the New Albert Auditorium, the Orioles trailing 11-9 at half time took on new life after intermission and scored almost at will. Without the services of Wheatley, Baskerville and Taylor of last year's team the Athenians found trouble getting started and until Henderson who was guarding Keller was removed from the line-up, their baskets were few and far between.
The Washingtonians' man for man defense was very effective until with the removal of their tall center it cracked. "Scrappy" Brown, Athenian mainstay, was held without a field basket until the closing minutes by "Mike" Jones, and there is a probability that he would have been kept scoreless had not "Ev" Davis, substituting for Jones been busy guarding so many.

The Lincoln rabble was so stun-

‘The decision af the Howard off-

the fact that the record crowd was
very comfortably seated and with

SPEAKS TO UNIVERSAL
«IMPROVEMENT
og ASSOCIATION
liter Sent, of 1802 First
trest, Northwest, son of Major
partments in Washington would be
Lees away with; the anti-lynching
| bill wotld be enacted into law, and
jas many as sixteen Negroes would
recive presidential appointments
to places of dignity and responsi-
| bility, including Recorder of Deeds,
Register of the Treasury, Minister
|to Hayti and Minister to Liberia.
| ‘The Recorder of Deeds and. the
Minister to Liberia were realized.
though the latter post is now va-
cant. As for Register of the Treas-
ury nothing has. been realized.
As to how many presidential ap-
pointments (that is appointments
mad2 by and with the advice and
consent of the \Senate) Negroes
have received, hie exact number
docs not come to mind at this time,
‘but it is safe to say, they are not
ifiuch in exces of a half dozen, and
‘there may be some doubt as to
Whother they reach that figure,
Sogregation is as prevalent as ever.
And as to the anti-lynching bill. it
takes its place among broken oaths
‘and violated pledges.
But the Registership of the
Treasury has never ceased during
these’ nearly six years to be
Idangled before tho eyes of Negro
‘office seekers as an inducement to
support some candidate, It fig-
‘red in the Minois primary; it fig-
ited in the Pennsylvania primary,
sind now it appears to have figured
‘in Indiana in the November elec-
tion.
The story goes that Senator Jim
Watson who was a candidate for
re-election found that his Ku Klux
‘Klan associations and affiliations
were alienating the Negro vote. So
‘what docs he do but promise to get
‘the Rogistership of the Treasury
{for a certain Negro physician and
forthwith the stampede from Sena-
tor Jira was stopped. |
For the sake of the intelligence
and intogeity of the Negro vote of
indiana we hope the story is not
‘true, But whether true or not, we
‘can see no reason why any Negro
‘should haye voted for Senator Jim
Watson en the ground of his
friendship for Negrocs. His close,
intimate and friendly relations with
‘the Ku Klux Klan, if not his act-
val membership therein, is utterly
inconsistent with any claim of gen-
uine, substential friendship for
Negroes.
~ There may have been other rea-
sons why Negroes should with
self-respect, have voted for him,
though we can not imagine what
thoy were. It is not a matter of
record that he hes opposed seg-
tezation, or spoken against race
prejudice as has Postmaster Gen-
eral Nev. He hes done nothing,
so far as the record shows. to aid
the anti-lynching Dill to its pass-
age. Asa matier of fact Watson
neither in ability nor in his atti-
tude to the Negro deserves a place
in the ‘list with Oliver P. Morton,
Benjemin Harrison, Albert J. Bev-
ziege and Harry 8. New.
Now that Watson has been
elected, the Registership will sim-
ply hold ove> until another G.0.P.
candidate feels himself slipping
and trots the age-worn promise

RUTH HOWELL’S COMMENT
ON WESLEY HOWARD,
VIOLINIGT.
| Ruth Howell in the music col-
| umn of the Washington Daily
News of Wednesday, Noyember
the 17th, made the —flatter-
ing comment on Wesley I. How-
ard’s violin recital at Armstrong
High School Tuesday evening, No-
vember 16: “Wesley I. Howard,
..+ withal a most able violinist,
presented an cnjoyable program
at Arthstrong High School last
evening before an audience which
was conspicuous by its absence. It
| was ‘a shame. too, because it ‘was
highly appreciated by those _for-
tunate enough to be there. How-
ard plays with a clear sweet tone
and a facile technique. He mas
poise and a merited assurance.
His style is more restrained than
exaggerated; never have we seen
a violinist play with such bodily
‘romposure. Howard plays the mu-
sic and seems to foreet the audi-
once entirely, ... The program
was worthy of a much bigger au-
diene.” .
Helen Fetter of The Sunday
Star, this week says the following
“Last Tuesday nicht at Armstrong
High School, Wesley I, Howard.
violinist, gave a program of dig-
nified, scholarly musie.””
Such comment is deserving and
Ruth , Howell certainly told the
truth when she said “It was a
shame” that he Nad to play. “be-
fore an audience which was con-
spicuous hy its absence” and that
“The program was worthy of a|
much bigger audience.” Music
lovers missed on2 of the rarest,
treats ever presented in Washing-
ton as Howard played, so one lady
remarked who, heard him, as fine
as Kreisler ot other great white
artists, Yes, it certainly is a
shame that colored musicians and
music lovers here do not appre-
ciate violin playing enough to go
and hear it. It seems that there is
‘lack of appreciation for this type
of music among colored audiences
and it is a strong eae:
against the musical intelligence of
the race. Particularly so here in
Washington. supposed to be the
center of Negro culture in this
country. Colored folks apparently
do not care for violin music as
they never give a respectable au-
dienee to one as evident at How-
ard’s, Douglass's or White's ‘reci-
tals in the past. We remember
Clarence Cameron White's last_ap-_
pearance at Metropolitan A. M. E.
Chtrch in a violin recital and one
could count the attendance on the
two hands. ‘Thus it appears we are
not as great musie lovers here in
Washington as would seem casual-
ly. We love to hear vocalists only
and would crowd any house to hear
a favorite singer but not so for
instrumentalists. We remember
also when Howard University pre:
sented 2 symphony orchestra of
students with Dorey Rhodes con-
ducting and Wesiey Hownrd soloist
at Lincoln Theatre and Dunbar
later when another handful of cit-
zens attended. It was as fine a
performance of instrumentalists as
could be heard in this section of
the country still, just a few scem-
ingly appreciated their effort. ‘The
fact is that we are as yet not edu-
cated ip to that high standard of
music appreciation as other races
to sit and listen to other than vo-
calists.
Only a few days after the How-
ard recital did not white citizens
on a stormy afternoon crowd a
down-town theatre to listen to a
symphony. orchestra and colored
citizens on a previous stormy day.
or two before failed to turn out
to hear one of their own great
violin artists? Where were our
Public school music teachers, local
music teachers, members of choirs,
chorals, othe: music organizations
and music students who boast their
love of music? We ask again,
where were they? Any way. the
absent audience missed one of the
greatest musical programs of late
years not hearing Howard play.

-Use Postal Card
All applications MUST be writ-

The names and members will be

Fach week a postal card talk
will appear here ‘by some promin-
ent Negro—that is, a message sent
on a postal card will be printed. —
Hero is a postal card message.
that was sent to the children by.
one who truly loves them. This
message fom Mr. F. H. M. Murray.
appeared in a. series of messazes.
that were published in this de-
partment several years ago.
Mr. Murray was, for a number’
of years. an active leader in Alex-
andria, Va., in work. among chil-
dren. He is best known however,
as the author of “Emancipation
and the Freed in American Sculp-
ture.” He was kind enough to per-
mit us to publish his book in. se-
rial form. and many children, their
parents, and local educators sent
him letters praising the quality of
his. work.
His Postal Card Message
Dear Children: I am responding
to the editor's request to send a
“message to the children,” not be-
cause I think that I ean’ say any-
thing worth while that has not
already, been suid somewhere by:
somebody, but merely because I
want to say that. strange as it
may seem for « man in his six-
ties, there is no part of the Tri-
bune in which I am more inter-
ested than in the “Children’s
Page." .
T work—or try to work—all’ of
the puzzles, and try to answer
(to myself, of course) all the ques-
tions that’I:can, Tam frank to
say, some of the history questions
“stump me.” But it is a pleasure
to “dig” at them. And, oh! chil-
dren, T wish that you could now
realize how much in times to come,
especially in the twilight of life,
you will be solaced and comforted
hy—how much you will enjoy—
that which you have made vour
own. your very own, which no one
ean rob you of or cheat you out
of. “Do you know to what [ refer?
If yon think you do not, ask your
parent or your teacher.
¥, H. M. MURRAY.
EP. WANTS MORE JINGLES
Dear Editor: Please give us some
more jingles like you had week
before last. I expected to find
some on the page'last week. 1
like the Kiddies’ Corner and I read
it every week.

BESSIE ENJOYED
TWO CONCERTS
Dear Editor: Sunday ‘night I
went to the Belasco Theater and
heard Madam Lillian Evanti sing.
I think that her singing is wonder-
ful. ‘There was a large audience
present. Mady white people were
there and they seemed to enjoy
her singing too.
I wish that more white neople
would find out what our better
class of people are doing.
T also heard Miss Marian An-
derson sing on Tuesday night. at
the Metropolitan A.MLE. Church,
Tam glad that I heard both of
these ladies sing. I will remem-
ber these concerts as long as T
live. Tam sorry that more chil-
dren did not_ hear their wonder-
ful singing, T looked around but
I did not see many children pres-
ent.
T am very fond of music.

way before the influence of char-

our race, Without wealth there
can be no leisure, without leisu
there ean be no thought, and ‘with-
out thought there can be no pro-

Personal Service
The personal element is equally important in the.‘
conduct of a funeral, as proficiency in technical re- :
quirements. Tact and sympathetic understanding —
must go hand in hand with professional skill.
You will find our service admirably combining these
desirable features. We strive to give the kind of ser-
vice that precludes any possibility of confusion or em-
barassing delays.
