HOWARD BEATS LINCOLN MAN COMMITS SUICIDE BY JUMPING FROM TOWER OF WASHNGTON MONUMENT FIRST in Advertising and Circulation Vol. VI, No. 27 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. Washington Tribune THE CONGRESSIONAL LIBRARY, FIRST ST., S. E.

AIKEN PROSECUTOR IS READY TO PRESS CHARGES 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. in re- forged and then arrest forg- ed with narcotic 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.

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.

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.

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. Joseph H.

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.

ALL OVER TOWN ALL OVER TOWN 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.

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 Columbia Conservatory of Music Wellington A.

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. JOHN W. HARRIS DEAD John W.

SEND $1.00 TODAY FIVE 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.

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 By James B. Clafse By James B. Clarke 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. Hampton(49) J.C.Smith(0) McGowan L.E. Dockery Les(e) L.T. Somerset Robinson L.G. Alston Munday Center Battle Banks E.G.

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.

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.

OPEN EVENINGS REID'S CORNER 11th & U Streets Phone North 1234 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.

JOHN GILBERT AT THE REPUBLIC John Gilbert, star of "The Big Parade," and "The Merry Widow" will be shown in his latest picture "Bardelsy the Magnificent" at the Republic Theater for four days, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, November 28, 29, 30 and December 1. In "Bardelsy the Magnificent" Gilbert is supported by Roy D'Arcy, Eleanor Boardman and Karl Kane. The picture was directed by King Vidor, and the author is Rafael Sabati who also wrote "Scarmouche" and "The Sea Hawk." John Gilbert never had a role so admirably suited to his genius as Bardelys. He is known as "The Magnificent" in the court of King Louis XIII of France. Huge castles, great crowd scenes, court functions in gorgeous costumes, all figure in the spectacular part of the picture. Gilbert fights ferocious duels, swims a raging river on horseback, pole vaults out of the grasp of his enemies and does a score of other equally dangerous and astounding stunts. Roy D'Arcy who will be remembered in his part of the bandit in "The Temptress" has another great role in "Bardelys." Eleanor Boardman is the heroine. "Bardelys the Magnificent" is one of the big pictures of the year. "College Days" a sensational story of college life will be shown on Thursday and Friday, December 2. 3. Marceline Day, James Harrison and Eda Murphy head a brilliant cast which also includes 25 university football games ever filmed. The picture tells the story of a typical up-to-day youngster who entured a coed college and at once wins a host of friends, mostly of the fairer sex. Naturally he falls in love, and the sweetly told story of the courtship, the many obstacles he has to overcome, all fit into a perfectly acted and directed story. A. P. Younger, the author of "College Days" also brought "Brown of Harvard" to the screen. Don't forget Harry's Ad Show. Friday at 9 p.m. $10 in valuable merchandise given away-free to the lucky winners. On Saturday, December 4, the feature attraction will be "Going the Limit" with George O'Hara in the main role. On the stage, talent at 7:30 and 9:30. "THE GREAT DECEPTION" AT THE LINCOLN For Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, the offering at the Lincoln will be that most wonderful and mysterious picture. "The Great Deception" taken from the well known novel. "The Yellow Dove," by George Gibbs. The following well known players appear in the cast: Aileen Pringle, Ben Lyon, Basil Bathroth, Sam Hardy, Charlotte Walker and Amelia Sommerville. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, Dorothy Mackaill, Jack Hallall and Charles Murrav will be seen in an Alfred Santelli production called, "Subwav Sadie." The popular Dorothy Mackall has a roll that will captivate every girl that sees her. For Saturday, only, Joseph Schildkraut, Marguerite De La Motter, Vera Steadman and Julia Faye appear in a De Mille production, "Meet the Prince." Beginning next Sunday, Gilda Gray, the highest priced dancer in the world, will be seen in "Alomo of the Deep Seas." Remember that on Sundays and nights there are 600 good seats for 20 cents each. HOWARD HAS BIG BILL Big Double Attraction Bill at the Howard Theater Next Week The Howard is presenting another of its wonderful double attractions during the week of November 29, by popular demand, the return of Rudolph Valentino in "The Son of the Sheik." Every patron will be given an autographed photo of Rudolph Valentino. On the stage we will have Billy Cumby and his "Harlem Scandals." Featuring Zackarish White, Tucker and Bartlette, Perry and Perry, Cleo Johnson, Blank Jefferson and a fast dancing chorus. From advance clippings "Harlem Scandals" will be a good show. The Howard is the home of Universal first-run pictures in the community. Starting Sunday till Monday, the Broadway Theatre will present the miracle dog of the screen, Peter the Great in the film novelty of the season, "The Sign of the Claw," supported by Ethel Shannon and Edward Hearn, seldom will you ever have a chance to see the wonderful human intelligence displayed by this wonderful dog actor in the role of a detective as you will see him in "The Sign of the Claw." It is a radical departure from the regular line of stories usually used in the making of features for animal actors. You will be thrilled and delighted while the kiddies will roar with glee. On Tuesday, a story in which youth has its fling and plenty of wild oats are sown only to be reaped later in the end. The Junior stars of Paramount's 1926 group offer "Fascinating Youth." Wednesday and Thursday, Donald Keith and Clara Bower in Percy Mark's startling novel of youth, a daring flaming picture overflowing with truth good and bad about the modern girl and boy of today "The Plastic Age." Mothers and fathers owe a lesson of this type to their children. You should bring theme. The week will end on Friday and Saturday with the triumphant return of the "Four Horsesmen" with Rudolph Valentini and Alice Terry. The Music Box Orchestra will furnish the melodies. A WONDERFUL WINDOW DISPLAY A WONDERFUL WINDOW DISPLAY Chauncey Brown, who has a sign painting company at 606 T Street, Northwest, originated and painted a unique window display featuring the Howard-Lincoln football game on Thanksgiving, and incidentally giving display advertising to the Tribune and the various business interests of the Murray Brothers. The sign is on display in the window of the Murray Brothers Printing Company, Incorporated. A football field, with the players in action at midfield, is laid off with the lines marking the sections and goal posts at each end. The background is a crowd of rooters at the game presenting a colorful scene. Just above the heads of the football crowd are a number of advertising display signs, featuring the Smarter Set dances the Murray Brothers Printing Company, the Washington Tribune, the Murray Casino, the Dunbar Theater, and Chauncey Brown's sign painting. The idea for the display was entirely original with Brown. He has also made up a unique display for the Prudential Bank to be used in its Christmas advertising. Mr. Brown is a young artist who, though he has been in business but three years, has had unusual success. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY.

Howard ... 6 13 6 7—32 Lincoln ... 0 0 0 0—0 Howard .....6 13 6 7-32 Lincoln .....0 0 0 0-0 NOTES ON THE GAME Captain Doyle of the Eighth Precinct is to be complimented for the fine manner he and his force handled the crowd. Even after the game was over, Captain Doyle was right there directing the crowd as to the various step-offs. Although the patrons had been asked to be in their seats by one o'clock, when that hour came, only about one-fourth of the crowd was in the stadium. While the Howard team showed all the pep and dash that was expected of it, the Howard cheering section was decidedly quiet. In fact, more action was shown the various other games than was displayed at the classic. The Lincoln rabble was so stunned by the score during the first half that they could not, or in fact did not take the field during the half. This is the first time the loyal Lincoln rabble has been so low in spirit. The decision of the Howard officials to play the "Classic" in the stadium was certainly justified by the fact that the record crowd was very comfortably seated and with practically no trouble. The absence of boxes certainly made the crowd more cosmopolitan. Sedate matrons in their gorgeous fur coats shared their "16 inches of board" with the "Common Herd," and rather seemed to like it. The crowd jout had to crowd the field during the last quarter. It seems to be too much of a temptation to be resisted. Fine coats and fine automobiles were everywhere in evidence with the Washington people holding their own. The value of these two items alone would amount to over a hundred thousand dollars. The Hon. Perry W. Howard caused many eyes to stretch and elbows to nudge when he strutted up the walk in his nice high hat. Being a good politician, Perry knows just how to share the limelight with any gathering. Not one Howard player was injured while more than a dozen times Lincoln players were stretched out. The officiating was not as smooth as it should have been. In the stands were scores of Howard and Lincoln cars including Gray, Brice, Young, Terry, Doneghy, Malson, Coston, Crudop, Lancaster and others. The crowd was well handled. The stadium lived up to expectations in that there were seats for everyone. SIDELIGHTS By H. Scott (Former Tribune Sports Editor) Head coach Louis L. Watson finally shook off the jinx and con- quered the Lincoln Lion. Watson's record against Lincoln stands one victory and two ties. Today's vi- ctory assures him a job for a long time.

After missing two passes and allowing a Lincoln man to circle his end, Dennis Simpson produced the outstanding thrill when he grabbed a long pass and romped over the goal line. Captain Grasty and Temple stood out for Lincoln. Martin and Hilbler were unable to show what was expected. JUVENILE COURT SANCTIONS Y. M. C. A.

Liberal Progressive Independent BEING LIKE THE JEWS Every once in a while in discussions and private conversations among Negroes, one hears remarks in the following strains: "The Negro should be like the Jew." "Why doesn't the Negro do like the Jew?" "The Negro needs money like the Jew." And many other similar observations ending in the phrase "like the Jew" are made. The model selected is the best possible. In the first place, the Jew is highly intellectual; his conception of God a purely intellectual conception—hence the prohibition against representing God with graven images and likenesses. The Jew puts brains in everything he does from dealing in old clothes to creating the highest artistic forms. The Jew is a first-class business man, banker, broker and financier. He understands the sources of power, and he bends the faculties of his mind to mastering and controlling these sources. In the struggle for existence he has established his fitness to survive. He is altruistic first in taking care of the unfortunate of his own race, and secondly in his contributions for the aid and succor of other peoples. He is not noisy and clamorous, but he stands solidly and unshakenly against all distinctions, discriminations and segregations leveled at his people. Although forced to live for six centuries in ghettoes and segregated areas, he never failed to protest against the wrong, and never ceased to teach his children that the practice was a violation of human rights. As Longfellow put it: Pride and humiliation in hand in Walked with them where or they went. Trampled and beaten were they as the sand. It is well that the Negro is observing the Jew and realizing that he needs to be like him. Let the observation continue; let the story be extended; let the effort to find out the secret of the Jew's power be unceasing. These things will help, and will result in large understanding; more and larger and more efficient business enterprises and a greater solidarity for mutual practice and advancement. THE REGISTERSHIP OF THE TREASURY There are some questions and situations which are difficult to approach in any serious, composed and dignified frame of mind. There are some tricks played upon the credulous, the gullible and the simple-minded at which one hardly knows whether to laugh or cry, or to hurl an imprecation. It is now approaching six years since an administration presumably more friendly to the Negro then the administration which it succeeded, came into power. During the Harding-Co: campaign, Negroes were told by persons said to know what they were talking about, that if Harding was elected, segregation in the government de- THE MOSAIC TEMPLARS OF AMERICA HOLD MEETING The Mosaic Templars of America, with headquarters in Little Rock, Ark., held its State Grand Lodge last week at Mt.

As to how many presidential appointments (that is appointments made by and with the advice and consent of the Senate) Negroes have received, the exact number does not come to mind at this time, but it is safe to say, they are not much in excess of a half dozen, and there may be some doubt as to whether they reach that figure. Segregation is as prevalent as ever. And as to the anti-lynching bill, it takes its place among broken oaths and violated pledges. But the Registrieship of the Husband has never ceased during these nearly six years to be dangled before the eyes of Negro office seekers as an inducement to support some candidate. It figured in the Illinois primary; it figured in the Pennsylvania primary, and now it appears to have figured in Indiana in the November election. 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 does he do but promise to get the Registrieship of the Treasury for a certain Negro physician and forthwith the stamped from Senator Jim was stopped. For the sake of the intelligence and integrity 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 have voted for Senator Jim Watson on the ground of his friendship for Negroes. His close intimate and friendly relations with the Ku Klux Klan, if not his actual membership therein, is utterly inconsistent with any claim of genuine, substantial friendship for Negroes. There may have been other reasons why Negroes should with self-respect, have voted for him, though we can not imagine what they were. It is not a matter of record that he has opposed segregation, or spoken against race prejudice as has Postmaster General New. He has done nothing, so far as the record shows, to aid the anti-lynchming bill to its passage. As a matter of fact Watson neither in ability nor in his attitude to the Negro deserves a place in the list with Oliver P. Morton, Benjamin Harrison, Albert J. Beervidge and Harry S. New. Now that Watson has been elected, the Registership will simply hold over until another G.O.P. candidate feels himself slipping and trots the age-worn promise out again. O. J. W. Scott, professor of Howard University, School of Religion, will deliver an address to the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Community League, Sunday, November 21 at 3 p.m., at the McKinley Memorial Baptist Church, Fourth and L Streets, Northwest. MINER NORMAL NEWS MINER NORMAL NEWS Miss Tipton gave a demonstration of the Palmer system of penmanship on Friday morning to the punils of the Miner Normal School. The classes in Nature Study under the direction of Mrs. Mabel Coleman completed their leaf herbaria. They represent the work of the first six weeks covering the study of trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants growing in the neighborhood of the Miner Normal School. They were placed on exhibit for the parents who visited the school on Friday. As an introduction to a study of the pre-school child on Wednesday and Thursday of this week Junior Classes in Psychology conducted a series of demonstration: showing the play activities of infants. For this purpose the recitation room was converted into a model nursery. Infants between the ages of 2 months and 3 years were placed in this stimulating environment and their reactions carefully noted by the student observers. As a basis of further study many significant characteristics of the preschool child were strikingly evident during these periods of play. These interesting demonstrations will be followed by discussions dealing with problems peculiar to the pre-school child.

MUSIC FORUM RUTH HOWELL'S COMMENT ON WESLEY HOWARD, VIOLINIST Ruth Howell in the music column of the Washington Daily News of Wednesday, November the 17th, made the flattering comment on Wesley I. Howard's violin recital at Armstrong High School Tuesday evening, November 16: "Wesley I. Howard, . . . withal a most able violinist, presented an enjoyable program at Armstrong 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 fortunate enough to be there. Howard plays with a clear sweet tone and a facile technique. He has poise and a merited assurance. His style is more restrained than exaggerated; never have we seen a violinist play with such bodily composure. Howard plays the music and seems to foretell the audience entirely. . . The program was worthy of a much bigger audience." Helen Fetter of The Sunday Star, this week says the following "Last Tuesday night at Armstrong High School, Wesley I. Howard violinist, gave a program of dignified, scholarly music." Such comment is deserving and Ruth Howell certainly told the truth when she said "It was a shame" that he had to play "before an audience which was conspicuous by its absence" and that "The program was worthy of a much bigger audience." Music lovers missed one of the rarest treats ever presented in Washington as Howard played, so one lady remarked who heard him, as fine as Kreisler or other great white artists. Yes, it certainly is a shame that colored musicians and music lovers here do not appreciate 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 indictment 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 audience to one as evident at Howard's, Douglass or White's recitals in the past. We remember Clarence Cameron White's last appearance at Metropolitan A. M. E. Church in a violin recital and one count the attendance on the two hands. Thus it appears we are not as great music lovers here in Washington as would seem casually. 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 presented a symphony orchestra of students with Dorcy Rhodes conducting and Wesley Howard soloist at Lincoln Theatre and Dunbar later when another handful of citizens attended. It was as fine a performance of instrumentalists as could be heard in this section of the country still, just a few seemingly appreciated their effort. The fact is that we are as yet not educated up to that high standard of music appreciation as other races to sit and listen to other than vocalists. Only a few days after the Howard 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, other 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. The next concert at Armstrong occurs on Tuesday, January 18, with The Trouwers Trio of Philadelphia and the Baltimore Post Office Glee Club double quartet in a joint program. It's another rare treat in the series but too rare for Washingtonians to stay home and miss we believe. DANIELS' MUSIC CLUB DANIELS' MUSIC CLUB The Daniels' Music Club met Sunday afternoon, November 14. at the Holy Name Guild. The following program was rendered piano— "Loved and Adored," Mrs. E. Winslow; "Ray of Sunshine," Annette Smallwood; "Simple Confession, Hattie Campbell; "Ripples of Alabama," Fay Flummen. Vocal solos, "Going Home" and "Starry Night" by Dr. William E. Taylor. A. B.

AND BE ELIGIBLE TO WIN A PRIZE The Tribune Postal Card Club can be joined by any child who is interested in Race advancement. Write your name, address, age, and parents' or guardians' names on a postal and send it to the Kiddies' Corner, Washington Tribune, 920 U Street, Northwest, Washington, D.C., and promise to observe four simple rules: The Tribunites' Pledge 1. I will never use the word "Nigger." 2. I will learn all I can about the history and traditions of my Race. 3. I will use my eyes and ears to detect slander against my Race. 4. I will be proud I am a Negro because God made me so, and, being a Negro, I will do all I can to add honor to my people. Your Editor would like to have at least twenty members for the T.T.P.C., so that whenever we present the first postal card message we shall have a representative membership. This feature will prove inspiring, educational, and entertaining; join now and get your friends to join. Use Postal Card All applications MUST be written and sent in on postal cards. The names and members will be published as the cards are received. Each week a postal card talk will appear here by some prominent Negro—that is, a message sent on a postal card will be printed. Here is a postal card message that was sent to the children by one who truly loves them. This message from Mr. F. H. M. Murray appeared in a series of messages that were published in this department several years ago. Mr. Murray was, for a number of years, an active leader in Alexandria, Va., in work among children. He is best known however, as the author of "Emancipation and the Freed in American Sculpture." He was kind enough to permit us to publish his book in serial 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 because I think that I can say anything worth while that has not already been said somewhere by somebody, but merely because I want to say that, strange as it may seem for a man in his sixties, there is no part of the Tribune in which I am more interested than in the "Children's Page." I work—or try to work—all of the puzzles, and try to answer (to myself, of course) all the questions that I can. I am frank to say, some of the history questions "stump me." But it is a pleasure to "dig" at them. And, oh! children, I wish that you could now realize how much in times to come, especially in the twilight of life, you will be solaced and comforted by—how much you will enjoy—that which you have made your own, your very own, which no one can rob you of or cheat you out of. Do you know to what I refer? If you think you do not, ask your parent or your teacher. F. H. M. MURRAY. ED. 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. I like the Kiddies' Corner and I read it every week. CLAUDE WILKINS (9) The lofty oak from a small acorn grows.

BESSIE ENJOYED Dear Editor: Sunday night I went to the Balasco Theater and heard Madam Lillian Vanti sing. I think that her singing is wonderful. There was a large audience present. Many white people were there and they seemed to enjoy her singing too. I wish that more white people would find out what our better class of people are doing. I also heard Miss Marian Anderson sing on Tuesday night at the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church. I am glad that I heard both of these ladies sing. I will remember these concerts as long as I live. I am sorry that more children did not hear their wonderful singing. I looked around but I did not see many children present. I am very fond of music. BESSIE R.
