TWO RACES CONTINUE FIGHT OVER BLOOMINGDALE PROPERTY Man Draped Only in Sheet, Flees Hospital John W. Cromwell, Historian, Dead TWO RA Man John Parents Were Slaves Bishop Archibald James Carey is the son of slave parents, Jefferson Alexander and Anna Bell Carey. He was born in Atlanta, Ga., August 25, 1887. He received his education in Atlanta University, the University of Chicago and the Chicago Theological Seminary. He married Miss Elizabeth Hill Davis, of Athens, Ga., December 18, 1890. --- FIRST in Advertising and Circulation BISHOP CAREY IS APPOINTED BY THOMPSON CHICAGO, Ill., April 13.—Bishop A. J. Carey of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, was appointed City Civil Service Commission today by Mayor William Hale Thompson. It is the first time that such an important office has been given a colored man here. Bishop Carey worked for Thompson during the recent mayoralty campaign. Just as he was appointed he received word that his offer of $450,000 for the Sinai Temple had been accepted. The Sinai Temple is being bought by the Bethel A. M. E. Church of Chicago, which burned down several years ago. Bishop Carey was ordained in the A. M. E. ministry in 1891. He has pastored Bethel Church, Athens; Mt. Zion Church, Jacksonville, Fla., and various churches in Chicago. He was elected to the bishopric May 18, 1921, and assigned to a diocese comprising Kentucky and Tennessee. CHICAGO GETS NEXT A.M.E. CONFERENCE CHICAGO GETS NEXT A.M.E. CONFERENCE That the next General Conference of the A. M. E. Church will meet in Chicago, the first Monday of May, 1928, was the decision reached by the General Conference Commission which met in Indianapolis, Ind., April 6. The commission was appointed in 1924 for the purpose of selecting a place of meeting for the conferences every four years. Delegates to the conference are being elected every week. One ministerial delegate will be elected for every thirty ministers of a district. In districts where there are less than five ministerial delegates, there will be two lay delegates. In those of five or more ministerial delegates, there will be three lay delegates. All details for transportation and accommodation for the delegates are handled through the office of John R. Hawkins, financial secretary, Washington, D. C. Bishopric Vacancies Three vacancies in the bishopric will be filled at the General Conference, and the election of officers will take place. Dr. S. J. Johnson, secretary of the Church Extension Board, and Mr. Hawkins, financial secretary, whose terms expire in 1928, are practically conceded re-election. Professor Hawkins has served in the capacity of financial secretary since 1912. The meetings of the conference in Chicago will likely be held in the beautiful new Bethel A. M. E. Church, the Sinai Temple. The General Conference was first set for Indianapolis, and it is rumored thru unconfirmed sources that Bishop Vernons' inclination to run things his own way led to the change. Had the conference gone to Indianapolis, it is said the Bishop would have been an unwilling host.

Af MAN, WHILE T CURE" AT JUMPS FR MAN, WHILE TAK CURE" AT FRE JUMPS FROM MAN, WHILE TAKING "AIR CURE" AT FREEDMEN'S, JUMPS FROM WINDOW By H. S. McAlphin Clothed only in a loosely draped sheet, and feeling the urge to fly with the birds of Spring stronger than the necessity of remaining quiet because of his suffering from pneumonia, a patient at Freedmen's Hospital jumped from the second story window and went nimbly flying down the street last Sunday morning about 10 o'clock. He was receiving the prescribed "air treatment" given to pneumonia patients at Freedmen's. While in the sun-parlor designed for this purpose, he conceived the idea that he wanted some sand-wiches, and that the only way to get out and get them was to fly through the window like a bird. So, through the window he went, alighting nimbly on the ground without injury to himself. From there, he struck out down the BROADWAY THEATRE ANNOUNCES NEW POLICY Beginning Sunday week, April 17, the Broadway Theatre will present at all times the pick of the season's best photoplays on the market, including Broadway news, events, scenic novelties and comedies of the first rank.

But in order to do this our admission prices in the future will be twenty cents at all times," stated Mr. Byars, the manager. This price includes Sundays and holidays. Matinees daily 15 cents to five J. Lock. Children 15 cents always. The Broadway policy is "The patrons first"; motto: "Wise men change." ter finishing his preparatory course at that school in 1867, he entered Howard University, graduating from that school in 1847 with the degree of L.L.B. He was admitted to the District of Columbia bar the same year. The degree of A.M. by Wilberforce University was given him in 1914. Early Federal Employee He was one of the first groups of colored men to quality for appointment in the Federal Civil Service; this was in 1872. He was also the first colored lawyer to appear before the Interstate Commerce Commission. For a number of years Mr. Cromwell was a teacher in the public schools of the District. From 1908 to 1921 he was principal of the Alexander Grumelin School. He was retired in 1921. Mr. Cromwell was an author of note. "The Negro in American History," "The Early Negro Convention Movement," and "The Nat Turner Insurrection" were notable among the works he published. In addition, he is the author of numerous pamphlets. He was one of the founders of the American Negro Academy, and was for many years its corresponding secretary and later president. At one time he published and edited the "People Advocate" and "The Record," and wrote many articles for other publications. He was one of the organizers of the Bethel Literary Society. He possessed one of the largest collections in the country of books by and about the Negroes. His first marriage was to Miss A. McGuinn in 1873, from which union seven children were born. His second marriage was to Miss Annie E. Conn in 1892. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Annie C. Cromwell, four daughters, Miss Otelia, Miss Lucy, Miss Mary and Mrs. Martha Brent and one son John W. Jr. Too large to appear as a nymph, the sun shining too brightly to permit one to mistake him for a ghost, he appeared to be a bronze mythic god as he sailed down the street, his draped white sheet aflare behind him. Near the Mott School, he found a Red Top Cab, into which he made a speedy and uninvited entrance. The driver, thinking he had a unatic, was about to drive to Freedmen's when the ambulance arrived. The man was transferred to the more comfortable and appropriate conveyance and whisked back to the hospital. In spite of the fact that there are cases on record where the slightest exertion has proven fatal to pneumonia patients, this bronze mythic god has given every evidence since Sunday of improving. The man's name is John Blackwell. TRIAL BOARD CONSIDERING GARRY CASE By H. S. McAlpin The Police Trial Board has under consideration the case of Frederick H. Garry, who is under suspension pending the Board's decision on charges against him of assault and drunkenness. The Police Court found Garry not guilty and dismissed the charges against him last Wednesday, despite the damaging evidence which was submitted. Much the same evidence which was set forth at the Police Court trial was re-submitted before the Police Trial Board. It was pointed out that the policeman, on March 22, about 3:30 p.m., entered Linden court, assaulted Mrs. Josephine White and her 15-month-old baby, and terrorized the whole neighborhood. Sergeant Coleman R. Brown, who arrested Garry and relieved him of duty, testified before the board that he smelled a strong odor of liquor on Garry. When asked if he thought the officer was drunk, Sergeant Brown declared: Eye Badly Bruised "I could not have considered him a sober man." The sergeant further testified that in his interview with Mrs. White, he saw that her eye was badly bruised and that he noticed this without her having to call his attention to it. In spite of this fact, however, Garry emphatically denied having struck Mrs. White. Some humor was added to the trial proceedings during the examination of one of the government witnesses, Mrs. Rachel Small, by the defense attorney. The two engaged in a battle of wits, in which Mrs. Small emerged the victor. She appropriately reminded the couse, not trying her. sel that he was trying the Garry A. S. Pinkett, real estate dealer and attorney, who was sworn in (Continued on page 5) NAT'L ASS'N OF COLLEGE WOMEN WILL MEET HERE NAT'L ASS'N OF COLLEGE WOMEN WILL MEET HERE A new impetus was given to graduate study among college girls at a recent conference between the Committee on Educational Policies of the National Association of College Women, and the senior girls of Howard University. The conference was presided over by the chairman of the educational committee, Dr. Georgiana P. Simpson, who arranged the meeting. Dr. Otelia Cromwell spoke on graduate work and foreign travel for those engaged in educational work. Dr. Anna J. Cooper, reported on graduate study at Sorbonne. Miss Juanita P. Howard discussed the many fields, other than that of teaching, in which college women are now engaged and of courses of preparation for these fields. Dean Lucy Slowe, of Howard University, also spoke. Music was furnished by Dr. Eva Dykes. The National Association will hold its fourth annual conference in Washington, April 21, 22, 23, at the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A. Delegates are expected from New York, Wilmington, Dover, Balimore, Petersburg, Cleveland, and Cincinnati. Business sessions will be held each morning and afternoon. The visitors will be entertained Thursday and Friday evenings at Howard University, and the conference will be concluded by a banquet. HIGH SCHOOL CADETS GIVEN COMMISSIONS AT HOWARD STADIUM TOMORROW MAN, WHOSE HEART WAS SEWN, DIES John Holt, 28, 1539 Fourth street, northwest was ordered held Monday by a coroner's jury for the action of the grand jury in connection with the death of Ernest Gibson, 1618 T street, northwest, who lived for two days after surgeons at Freedmen's Hospital had sewed up his heart. In an altercation between the two men last Thursday night, Gibson was stabbed, a long knife having punctured both lung and outer covering of the heart. Holt fleed to Jersey City, N. J., where he was arrested and was brought back here Monday by Headquarters Detective Trammel. Following the death of Gibson police changed a charge against Holt from "assault with a dangerous weapon" to "murder." Patient Dies Sunday Gibson died Sunday. It was thought that the operation would save his life. Dr. T. Edward Jones and Dr. S. L. Carson, after draining more than a pint of blood from the lung of the wounded man, took a double stitch in the pericardium, and replaced the two ribs which they had cut to perform the operation. The ribs were cut and lifted in trap-door fashion. The wound in the lung cavity was sewed up, and then the surgeons, synchronizing their work with the spit-second periods between heart beats and lung action, took two sutures to stop the leakage of blood from the heart. CHOIR OF WHITE CHURCH SINGS IN NEGRO PROGRAM LOS ANGELES, Cal. (Pacific Coast News Bureau). Since the famous Negro choir contest of last summer, Negro directors and their choirs have become unusually popular in Southern California. The First A. M. E. Church choir under the direction of Elmer C. Bartlett, which won first place in the contest, leads in popularity, filling an average of two engagements in white churches and clubs monthly. As an evidence of the enormous amount of good will this sort of contact has brought about, the First Baptist Church choir, white, under the direction of Dr. Stewart, gave a program at the First A. M. E. Church recently before a very large mixed audience. OFFICE: 920 U STREET, N.W. BLOOMINGHILL lees He rian, CHOOL O COMMI WARD S —Photo by Scurlock MRS. BECKLEY LOSES IN SUIT AGAINST BOARD Justice Frederick L. Siddons, Tuesday refused to interfere with the action of Assistant Superintendent Garnet C. Wilkinson, in transferring Mrs. Dorothy Pelham Beckley from the Shaw Junior High School to the Randall Junior High School. He held that it was an administrative matter and within the discretion of the administrative officers of the school system and the Board of Education. Mrs. Beckley sought a writ of mandamus to compel the Board of Education to rescind its order of February 1, 1927, transferring her, and to re-instate her in her old position, or to assign her to teach ninth grade English in a junior ninth grade English in a junior a senior high school. The Board of Education denied that the transfer of Mrs. Beckley was a demotion. It claimed that it was made for the good of the service. Mrs. Beckley was a teacher of ninth grade English in the Shaw Junior High School. She is assigned to teach eight and ninth grade English and Ancient History in the Randall Junior High School. At the time of her appointment, September 1, 1920, she was eligible to teach English in the senior high schools. This eligibility, the Board of Education asserted, expired June 9, 1922. An appeal from the decision of Justice Siddons will probably be taken. MOTHER AND DAUGHTER DIE Mrs. Edmonia Harris, the wife of Mr. Lilbern Harris died at her residence in Swann street, Wednesday, April 6, after a long illness. The next day a daughter, Mrs. Pauline Ross, the wife of Earl H. Ross, died. Funeral services were held for both at Mount Pleasant Baptist Church, Herndon, Va. The children of Mrs. Harris are Mrs. Martha Jones, James, Beulah, Inez, Theodore, and Allie Harris. Last Thursday evening the Calvary Baptist Church choir of Saints Monica, another one of the choir contest entries, under the direction of Mrs. Gertrude Edwards, sister of Rube Foster, the baseball magnet, gave a concert at the Municipal Auditorium, and was assisted by the famous Municipal Band of which Maestro Alfredo Tommasio is the conductor. DALE PR ospital Dead ADETS SSIONS STADIUM Commissions were presented to the officers of the Twenty-fourth Regiment, High School Cadets, at Howard University Stadium on Monday afternoon at 3 oclock. Colonel Isaac C. Jenks, of Staff, Third Corps Area, reviewed the cadets and presented the commissions to the officers, Lieutenant Colonel Clarence M. Deems, Jr., R.O.T.C. officer, Third Corps Area accompanied Colonel Jenks. In presenting the commissions Colonel Jenks stressed the value of military training in the building of manhood and the preparation for American citizenship. He stated that the acceptance of a commission or a warrant is an assumption of responsibility, that the responsibility of an officer does not end with the calling of commands and the dismissal of the company but that the officers are leaders in the broadest sense of the term. The Colonel gave a word of advice and congratulation to each officer as he passed to receive his commission. Colonel Jenks commanded H Company, 25th Infantry, U.S.A., for more than twenty years. Lieutenant Colonel C. E. N. Howard, P.M.S. and T. Howard University and his assistants, Captain Rathborne and Captain Burns were in the reviewing party. Others in the reviewing party were Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of schools Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University; Dr. J. H. Johnson and Rev. F. I. A. (Continued on page 9 FORMER HOWARD STUDENTSMARRY IN PHILADELPHIA Announcement was made this week of the marriage of two former Howard University students, Thomas J. Anderson and Miss Anita B. Turpeau, both of the class of '25. Miss Turpeau, now Mrs. Anderson, is the daughter of Dr. D. D. Turpeau, pastor of Warren M. E. Church, Pittsburgh. Last year, she was dean of the school of education at Arkansas M. and N. College. At present, she is teacher of music and English in the Coatesville Junior High School, Coatesville. Mr. Anderson is principal of the Coatesville Junior High School. During his attendance at Howard University, he was a star track and football athlete, holding at one time the inter-collegiate disc throw record. Mr. Anderson is now visiting in Washington on a week's vacation. TAU DELTA SIGMA COMMEMORATE FALLEN FRATERS. Tau Delta Sigma fraternity, one of the oldest professional Greek letter organizations of this city, and which is composed of some of the leading "lawyers of the country, at their regular meeting last Friday night, bowed in silent prayer in memory of the fallen comrades, Robert W. Herndon and Arthur L. Boykins. Mr. Herndon, an inventor and student of law, was killed in an accident some several years ago. Mr. Boykins, who died from heart trouble only two years ago was formerly a student of Frelinghuysen University, later entering Howard Law School. Let our classified column rent that vacant room. Call Potoma 1667. --- IN WASHINGTON nearly everybody reads the TRIBUNE PRICE FIVE CENTS COLORED BUYERS DETERMINED TO STAY IN HOMES محمد حسن The white property owners in the vicinity of First and Adams street, northwest, want the court to oust immediately the colored residents in premises No. 2328 First street and No. 141 Adams street, northwest. Colored residents occupying these premises are seeking to remain in possession and occupancy until the Court of Appeals has passed upon the legality of the restrictive covenant in the deeds to property in this section. Judge Declines to Decide After hearing arguments last Monday upon the question of whether or not superseades bonds should be accepted and the colored residents permitted to remain in possession and occupancy of this property pending an appeal, Justice Wendell P. Stafford declined to decide the question and advised Attorneys William E. Leahy, George E. C. Hayes and Ernest J. Davis, representing the colored residents, to file their application for superseadas bonds with the Court of Appeals. Justice Stafford signed two mandatory injunctions. One commands the occupants of No. 2328 First street, northwest, and the other commands the occupants of No. 141 Adams street, northwest, to vacate these premises. The injunctions also permanently enjoy them from the use or occupancy, directly or indirectly, of these properties. One injunction sets aside a deed, dated November 23, 1926, conveying No. 141 Adams street, northwest, from Isadore and Rebecca Young to Maggie Davis and Amanda Butler, who are ordered to vacate. The other injunction declares void a deed dated March 5, 1927, conveying No. 2328 First street, northwest, from Thomas A. Grier to Henry A. and Alyce N. Cornish, who are also ordered to vacate. These defendants will continue to occupy these premises until the appellate court has passed upon the question of granting superseadas bonds, which will keep the injunctions from becoming effective until the Court of Appeals has passed upon the question. Attorneys Leahy, Hayes and Davis contend that the restrictive covenant in the deeds to this property is an unlawful restraint of alienation and opposed to the public policy of the United States. While the Court of Appeals has upheld an identical covenant, they say that the question of unlawful restraint was not passed upon. VICTORS IN HIGH SCHOOL ORATORY CONTEST NAMED --- The fourth annual oratorical contest was held Thursday at the two high schools. The Dunbar orations were heard beginning at 9 a.m., while the program at Armstrong was begun at 1 p.m. Both were well attended. Lucian Robinson, a junior at Dunbar, was considered best of the Red and Black aspirants, and Allen Andrews, Armstrong senior, won the Tech contest. Each winner receives at a later day, the Evening Star prize of $100, and is entitled to participation in the National Contest held after the Easter holidays. Robinson, was the third speaker on a program of five, and his subject was "Jefferson and the Constitution." Andrews, the last of seven aspirants spoke on "Alexander Hamilton." Both addresses were masterful deliveries of well studied subjects. Howard Spriggs speaking on "Lincoln and the Constitution," and Ruth Matthews on "The Constitution" were runners up in the Armstrong and Dunbar affairs, respectively. Miss Grace Coleman, Dr. Charles H. Thompson, and Reverend William Washington acted as judges at Dunbar, while Dr. G. H. Richardson, Mr. James C. Waters, Jr., and Mr. A. H. S. Pinkett served in the same capacity in the afternoon at Armstrong.

FOURTEENTH AND FIF- | admission of married women to ‘| EENTH AMENDMENTS _ | the normal schools to very simple OM Ree Se errs rs eng '" “AM questions regarding the per- sonal rights of the citizen are so closely connected and related that it is impossible to discuss any one of these rights without’ making reference to and calling in question some one or all of the others. The same is true as to constitutional Tights. The Constitution of the United States is one body having many members, all of which re- spond to,a delicate and sensitive nervous system which branches out into all the members. If one of the members is hurt, the whole body is affected by the pain. ‘These universally accepted and commonplace observations are called to mind by the joint debate between President Nicholas Mur- ray Butler and Senator William E. Borah which took place in Boston, Friday evening, April 8, on the question of whether or not the re- peal of the Eighteenth Amend- ment and the Volstead Act should be an issue in the presidential campaign next- year. President Butler, in the course of his re- marks urging the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment, made the following observation: I observe that some of our friends in the Senate and House from the South are very much con- cerned about law enforcement. ‘One of them who, to my great sor- row, has recently lost his seat through no fault of mine, Con- gtessman Upshaw of Georgia, who spent a, great deal of his time in ing that I be deported—if you ask him to enforce the Fifteenth Amendment or the Fourteenth, he would have paralysis. (Applause). Why, if we enforced the Four- teenth and the Fifteenth amend- ments that voluble gentlemen in- stead of occupying for some years 2% seat on the floor of the House ‘of Representatives would have been saving a boll weevil on a plantation. (Applause.) In his argument in favor of the Eighteenth Amendment, Senator Borah found it necessary to stand up for the Fourteenth and Fif- teenth amendments. Replying to President Butler, he said: It_has been said that I am in- consistent because I advocate en- forcement of the Eighteenth A- mendment and do not advocate en- forcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. Well, they are greatly mistaken, T am just as much in favor, and would lend my humble effort just as thoroughly to the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments as I would to the en- forcement of the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. (Applause). ‘My position is that, whenever a clause is put into the Constitution through the manner pointed out by ‘the Constitution, and through the deliberate judgment of the Ameri- can people, it is the duty of every loyal citizen to uphold and maintain that Constitution until the people “oe fit in their wisdom to change fe tmsrett) 4 In the aap Hamat Borah has been equivocs!l, if not positively lukewarm, in his support of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amend- ments, This declaration of his in Boston is in a measure gratifying. He sees, of course, that he can not legally and morally support any one portion of the Constitution in preference to another. Let the Anti-Saloon League come out in like manner. 7 eee » MARRIED WOMEN IN THE NORMAL SCHOOL Now that the board of educa- tion has made the course of study in the normal schools three years, beginning July 1, the question of admission of married women to the course of study in the Miner Normal School comes forward for discussion. It is understood that ‘there are no married women in the classes of the Wilson Normal School, It is further understood that this is an entirely different ques- tion from that of whether or not ‘women teachers in the service who “marry shall be continued in their places. This last question has been decided by the courts, and it “is to the effect that under the pres. ent organic law ihe board of edu- cation has no power to dispense with the services of a woman teacher who after appointment “matries; that is, to dispense with cher services for the act of marry. “ing. That matter can only be “a through an amendment of the eeganic act by Congress, 5 quasar | This reduces the question of the admission of married women to the normal schools to very simple terms, The board of education has undoubted power to deal with the question. No legislation by Congress is necessary in this case. ‘The practice of admitting mar- ried women to the normal. schools grew out of war conditions. It is maintained with rauch show of reuson and sound argument that, the war emergency being now passed, the practice should be stopped, ‘The most of those married women who enter the normal schools are beyond the age of twenty-five years, A woman at twenty-five has reached physical and intellectual maturity, She has become settled and fixed in her habits of thought and conduct. She, accordingly, has an+advan- tage over the young woman of seventeen or eighteen who enters the normal course. She has reached the age where her views of life are serious and practical. Her power of concentration and her experience as a married wom- an take her out of the class of young people, and put her in a dif- ferent group. From lack of physi- cal and intellectual maturity, the young women find themselves over- borne and outdistanced. They become discouraged and lose inter- est in the vital concerns of life. Our young women néed opportu- aity. They should not be elbowed out of opportunity by married women. The married women have had their chance. They should not stand in the way of the young women, This is the argument of the larger social view. There arc many other arguments against the present practice in the normal ‘schools, The general concensus of opinion, we believe, would support the board of education in denying married women admission to the ‘normal schools. DENYING THE RIGHT TO VOTE A news item with a Miami, Flori- da, date line, the first week in April, stated that a committee of colored citizens called on the city commission and asked “that the commission place a registration booth in their district so their vo- ters might pay their poll tax and qualify to vote.” The item failed to explain why the booth had to be placed in that district. It did state that the city manager, Frank Wharton, said: “We regret that all of the registration booths have been allotted,” and that the black men “bowed their way out of the door.” Out of the 40,000 Negroes in Miami, it would seem that there would be some with the intelli- gence and the courage to have se- cured legal assistance and advice and to have instituted court pro- ceedings to compel the city au- thorities to provide the opportuni- ty for their payment of.taxes and consequent registration. The facts as set forth in the news item constitute a conspiracy against the civil rights of the citi- zen, and if the laws of Florida do not provide a remedy, the laws of the United States do. Negroes should know their’ rights. But to know them is not enough; know- ing them, they must dare maintain them. There was talk some time ago, of President Coolidge spending a short vacation in Florida, after the adjournment of Congress, the reason given being that there were enough Republicans now in Flori- da to make the state doubtful in the election next year. Here is an opportunity for those who insist that the Republican party is the true guardian and protector of the civil and political rights of the Negro to make a demonstration. As a contribution to this end, we call the attention of the colored people themselves, and the guardian and protecting Republicans, to the decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States in the cases of Myers vs Anderson, and Gwinn vs. United States, reported in Volume 238 ot the United States Reports. ‘Last week the “Race Congress” met in annual convention at the Mount Carmel Baptist Church: THE “RACE CONGRESS” “Between the Capitol and Union Station” The Hotel with the Home-Like Atmosphere NEW JERSEY AVE. at D ST., N.W.

Jerna- gin met in annual convention at that place; for the Race Congress ig the Rev. Jernagin, and the Rev. Jernagin is the Race Congress. A Race Congress without the Rev. Jernagip would be like the play of Hamlet with Hamlet teft out, In other words, the Race Congress is a personally conducted affair. There was nothing of a vitally important nature from a racial point of view done at the annual neeting. The subjects discussed, and the things said on them, and the resolves adopted were the same-as last year and the: year be- fore and all the other years. In order that the ritualistic program might not depart from its custo- mary monotony, Professor Kelly Miller was on hand with his usual beuntiful “supply of wearisome platitudes and depressing gencr- alities. If anything has ever happened in the past, or if anything is now taking place in domestic or ex- ternal affairs, which has any rela- tion to the advance or retreat of the race, one would search the proceedings of the Race Congress in vain for information as to such happening or event, past or present. So far as the published accounts of the congress go, it would ap- pear that the congress is ignorant of, or insensibe to, past and cur- rent history. On thing, however, is made plain, and that is the Race Con- gress knows, the Rev. Jernagin will be held next year. It is quite evident that the Rey. Jernagin, knows, that a national election who is the Race Congress, is in training to give the Republican party his support. His legal right te do this is not questioned, His moral right to do so under the guise of a name implying non- partisanship is another question. It leads into the details of practi- cal, partisan politics, and most right, clear thinking people w'll a- gree that a clergymen in the ac- tive ministry should have nothing to do with such, More of this hereafter.

John was.a good, kind-hearted and obedient child. ‘One evening when he came home from schoool, his mother fe him an envelope, He opened it and to his surprise it contained an invitation to an Easter outing. He read it to his mother, and she told him that he could ae ‘She told him that he must careful in the street and that he should look in all directions for coming auto- mobiles. ‘When the day came for him to go, he packed his basket and kissed his mother good-bye. His mother told him to be home by seven o'clock. ‘When he got to his companion’s house, who had invited him, he sew a number of other boys and a large truck. He asked his com- panion where they were going and his companion said, “We are going to the zo9.” When the time came for them to go they placed their baskets in the truck and started on their journey. When they arrived at the 200, they went to find some place to eat and to keep their baskets. Af- ter they had eaten they went to see the animals. ‘They were interested most when “b= Tew the monkevs having a good time, and when they saw the keeper feeding the giraffes. Later they rolled their eggs, and ate some of them. About six o'clock the truck came to get them. They packed their baskets and returned home. When John got home he thanked his. companion for inviting him to the outing. When he got home he :old his mother. what a nice time he had had. Since then John and his com- panions have been inviting each other to other outings. THE CALENDAR CONTEST Arranged by Wm. H.

TELEPHONING TO A DOG Dear Editor: Here is an item of interest that I read in the Literary Digest. I am sure’ that it will be of interest to other Tribunites, es- pecially those who are fond of pets. “How a lost dog recognized his master’s voice sixty miles away by telephone is told in The Daily Pro- vinee (Vancouver, B.C.). A resi- dent of Victoria lost a retriever dog. An animal answering to the description given was found in Van- couver, and the owner was called by telephone. ‘Let me speak to the dog.’ replied the owner, accord ing to the newspaper, which adds: “The: receiver of the telephone was placed to the ear of the ani- mal, who from a state of deepest grief and depression. was trans- lated to one of glee and ecstasy. Leaping from those who held him at the instrument, he searched be- neath tables and desks and behind cupboards and doors for the master whose voice he knew ‘so well. “Apparently satisfied that the ‘telephone was really the source of the voice he hurried back to it, and for several seconds attentively lis- tened at the receiver. “T told him I would soon have him home,” tel- ephoned the owner, and apparent- ly the dog understood, for he is now eating Tavenously ‘and appears quite content to await develop- ments.’ ” J GEORGE DARNELL (14) The greatest wealth is not gold, for it can be lost or stolen; nor mansions, for they can be swept away by wind or fire.

Adams. Mr. Wellington A. Adams has compiled some data concerning the great masters in music. To try to get our readers interested in the est there is in music, we will print for several weeks—short sketches of the masters and their works, Mr. Adam’s sketches haye al- ready dealt with Bach, Handel, Haydn, Mozart; Schubert and Beethoven. Mendelssohn ‘The lives of so many great com- posers are one long record of strug- gle, poverty and disappointment, that Mefdelssohn’s career would be remarkable if for no other reasons than the advantages, the affluence andthe success which he enjoyed during his lifetime. His. music is full of sunshine; yet ,to some, it latks an elemenial note. Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy was born at Hamburgh in 1809. His overture to “A Midsummer Night's Dream,” written -when he was ‘sev- enteen, is one of the most remark- able instances of his early activity. His oratorios, “Elijah” and “St. Paul” are-great and popular. His piano’ composition, “Songs Without Words” is a favorite in every coun- try. He died in 1847. ‘Schumann Out of the skies of, poetry the spirit of “romanticism” descended upon music. Schymann, the musi- cian of the “Fantasiestucke,” pene- trated farthest into its ' realm. Whimsical or tender, brilliant or simple, shy or exuberant, his. mu- Nic Js ‘always: expressive, bis char acterization infallible: Robert Alexander Schumann, was born in “Zwickan;° Saxony, 1810. His best known ‘compositions are “Byening Song,” “Traumerei,” and “Two Grenadiers.” ‘Schumann ‘died in 1856. “PUNCH AND JUDY” SHOW IS REGAINING. POPULARI- TY THROUGHOUT FRANCE ‘ Dear Editor: I see in the paper that the “Guignol,” or Punch and Judy show, is gaining recognition in France as an art with its tradi- tions, worthy of preservation with folk-lore. Laurent Mourguet, who brought the idea from Italy, in°1795, devel- oped it at Lyons,,and his descen- dants still present the old sketches written around the characters. of Guignol and Grafron. ; ic sarcastic humor that marks the playlets, burns holes in political and social bombast and ae oe directness .of everything eS fire with children and. adults alike, The guignol still plays mostly to children, but as its best is appreci- ated by’ all. T have seen. Punch and Judy shows several times, and I always enjoy them. DANIBL DARNELL (15) OLDER BOYS CONFERENCE The Older Boys Conference of the Y.M.C.A. will be held April 22, 23, 24.

EXELENTO MEDICINE COMPANY ATLANTA, GEORGIA AGENTS WANTED EVERYWHERE Write For Particulars ASK PERMANENT ALIMONY FOR BRIDE OF "KIP" NEW YORK, (Preston News Service) - Suits for separation and permanent almamy were under consideration Saturday by Alice Jones Rhinlander, bride of Leonard Kip Rhinlander, wealthy young aristocrat, defeated in the Court of Appeal: Thursday in the last effort Mrs. ALICE RHINELANDER Mrs. ALICE RHINELANDER for anplumment of his marriage for annulment of his marriage. Mrs. Rhinelander and her attorney indicated that papers in a separation suit, charging cruelty and abandonment, would be served on Rhinelander within a few days. The complaint was prepared the day the jury decided against Rhinelander's plea that his wife had deceived him as to her part Negro blood, but her counsel said, the suit was not begun pending settlement of appeals. Alimony to Cease Mrs. Rhinelander has been receiving $300 monthly as temporary alimony and also has been allowed $6,500 in counsel fees. Legal compulsion for payment of the alimony ceased with Thursday's decision. Whether her husband would continue the payments of his own accord could not be learned. Samuel F. Swinburn, Mrs. Rhinelander's counsellor, said that at the start of the court battle for annulment of his marriage Rhinelander announced that no matter which way the case went some provision would be made for Mrs. Rhinelander Seven justices of the Court of Appeals, the state's highest tribunal, unanimously decided that Mrs. Rhinelander, daughter of a Negro coachman, had not deceived her husband as to her color. The decision was the third legal defeat suffered by Rhinelander in a fight that is estimated to have cost him $50,000. FOUR GERMAN STUDENTS PAY VISIT TO HOWARD FOUR GERMAN STUDENTS PAY VISIT TO HOWARD Four students from various universities of Germany were the guests of Dutton Ferguson, of Howard University, on Thursday, March 31. Eric H. D'Ambly, of Fusterburgh; G. Hadenberg, of Barmen; Ulrich Kuenchler, of Dusseldorf; and Fred Weibel, of Leipsic, were among the guests who motored here from New York. The group paid a visit to Howard University, where they were again received as they were last Spring. After sight-seeing in Washington, the whole party was the guest of the German Ambassador. Dr. Davis of the Department of German, met the group. Mr. Weibel made a brief talk to one of Prfoessor Williams' classes in German. weak, nervous "I WAS in a very weakened, run-down condition, surely in need of a tonic and builder," says Mrs. J. R. Wrenn, of Anna, Texas. "I was so weak I had to go to bed, and kept getting weaker. "I suffered with my back so much. I was very nervous, couldn't rest good at night. I couldn't eat anything—I just wasn't hungry. "I had read so much of Cardui, I thought best to use it. I took seven or eight bottles, and by the time I had taken them I was stronger than I had been in several years. I can highly recommend Cardui." Thousands of others have found that the tonic effects of the purely vegetable ingredients of Cardui were just what they needed to help restore their appetites, to help bring them easily and naturally back to normal health and strength. It has been found of great benefit in so many cases of weakness, that you should surely try it, when in need of a good tonic.

Harris, editor of the New York News, has sent lengthy and out-spoken protest to President Coolidge concerning a student in the high schools of New York who was refused admission to a Citizens' Military Training Camp because of his color. The student, Marsden V. Burnell, received the following letter from Lieutenant Colonel H. W. Fleet, a C.M.T.C. officer: "Your application is being returned. "We are not permitted to accept colored young men in the C. M. T. Camps in this area. The same army regulations as apply to enlistment in the army govern acceptance at the C. M. T. Camps, that is, colored men must enlist in colored regiments. There will be camps for colored young men in southern states and of course, you are eligible to attend, although it will not be possible to pay your way the entire distance from New York to the camps. "I suggest that you send your application to the C. M. T. C. officer, 4th Corps area, Red Rock Bldg., Atlanta, Ga." Insult and Injustice Mr. Harris called the Pre iden't attention to the blunt language used in the letter to Burnell. He states that insult is added to injustice. In concluding his protest, Mr. Harris says: "Surely the United States will not expect her own colored citizens to fight against those colored races in the event of war with China or Japan or Mexico or Nicaragua or Haiti—to set up the same color line in those foreign countries that is now officially set up not only in her army and navy, but as well in its citizen's training camps. This is an issue, Mr. President, that will not down. We ask that you settle this question and that you settle it right. As the nation's commander-in-chief, we ask that you order this color line dropped before the exigencies of war makes it necessary as a war measure. We speak advisedly when we say that such outrages as the exclusion of Burnell are sowing dragons' teeth which will later beset the nation's pathway."

ARMSTRONG STUDENTS SCORE IN SCHOOL PLAY ARMSTRONG STUDENTS SCORE IN SCHOOL PLAY "Lelawala," the Indian operetta, staged by students of the dramatic department of Armstrong High School under the direction of Miss Helen F. Crawford, was presented in the Armstrong auditorium last Thursday night and repeated Saturday afternoon. The affair in both cases was a complete success. Miss Sarah Foggie in the role of Lelawala, displayed exceptional ability as an actress. Her voice greatly helped the production. Foraker Dixon as Chief Wokomis played the lead opposite Miss Foggie, and his part as chief of the Oniagarah tribe was very capably filled. It fell to the lot of Samuel Darrell with his portrayal of the witty Englishman, Lord Tattler to gain the favor of the entire audience.

On a set day, she drifted over Niagara Falls in a white flower decked canoe; the anger of the Great Spirit was appeased, and the famine was ended. The Delaware, a much larger tribe than the Oniagarahs, have threatened them with war. The Medicine Man of the Oniagarahs calls upon Maniton, the Great Spirit. Maniton says that a maid must be sacrificed to appease his anger and avert war with the Delawares. Lelawala, the daughter of Chief Wokomis, is chosen. She prepares to go in her white canoe over the falls when the Medicine Man brings another spirit message, saying that Lelawala does not have to be sacrificed because the Great Spirit has turned away his anger.

Dread of mystery solved alone, Of the untried and unknown; Yet the end thereof may seem Like the falling of my dream.

TRIAL BOARD CONSIDERS GARRY CASE (Continued from page 1) as a witness in order that he might be eliminated from the court room during the submission of evidence (this action was taken after the defense counsel declared that he suspected Mr. Pinkett of giving signs to the government witnesses during the Police Court Trial), testified that in company with a detective, he went to the home of one of the government witnesses and caught a man laying down money on the table as a bribe to withdraw the charges made against Garry. Mr. Pinkett stated that his interest in the case was only that of a citizen who wants to see that citizens are treated fairly with a fair opportunity before the courts. Garry Denies Bribery When questioned about his knowledge of the bribery attempt, Garry stated that three colored men approached him in Creacy's paper store and told him they were tired of going to court and wanted to settle up. He said that his reply was: "We'll settle up before the judge." As to the rest of the bribery proceedings and the presenting a paper to Mrs. White to sign, and the furnishing of the money with which to pay her, Garry denied any knowledge. Five policemen, all privates, testified in Garry's behalf. The similarity in their stories, the use of the same words, the identical chronology and sequence of thoughts, was very noticeable. Patton Differs The stories agreed on every point except when one officer, J. O. Patten, testified that he saw Garry go to the door of one of the houses on Linden court, but whether he went in he did not know. The others said positively that Garry did not approach any of the houses. The trend of the testimony in Garry's favor was: "I didn't see him do that." "Of course there are a hundred million people who did not see anything Garry did. But the weight of such testimony should be slight against that of persons who did see what was done and against that of persons to whom things were done," was a remark overheard at the trial. The decision of the Police Trial Board will be rendered in about two weeks. During this time, Garry will remain under suspension. 50th THANKS GIVING SERMON OF A. U. O. OF MOSES Rev.

Smith, field and alumni secretary of Howard University, is in Pittsburgh having considerable success with the endowment drive. His efforts have increased the pledges in Pittsburgh $2000, and he was able to collect an additional $1125 on money already pledged. At an enthusiastic meeting Saturday night, the people promised to pay their unpaid pledges of $1117 by June 10. Dr. Crampton and Attorney W. Justin Carter are arranging a big mass meeting in Harrisburg on May 5, and are trying to get President Mordecai W. Johnson to be present as speaker. Dr. Emmett J. Scott is in receipt of a letter from Senator James Couzens, in which the senator says: The Letter "My Detroit office has just forwarded me your letter of March 17, which was delayed because they were expecting me to be in Detroit before this. "You quote from a letter I wrote you on February 10, 1923, in which I agreed to contribute five thousand dollars to your university under certain conditions. You now advise me that while you were unable to bring the campaign to a successful close by July 1, 1926, the General Educational Board at its meeting held last month decided to extend the period in which its offer may be met to December 31, 1927. You ask, in consideration of this and the contribution by Mr. Julius Rosenwald, if I would extend my offer to July 1, 1927, to December 31, 1927. "I am glad to do this, particularly in view of the fact that so many graduates and friends seem to be standing back of the university. So long as there is plenty of evidence that people are willing to help themselves, I am glad to do something to help them." "I simply desire to convey, however, that there is much difference between a pledge and a payment. My own experience has indicated that many pledges are not fulfilled. I only want to urge that these pledges from your graduates and others be paid. "I hone you are successful in completing the requisite amount before the specified time. Sincerely yours, JAMES COUZENS." The class of 1930 of the College of Medicine has instigated a dollar drive in behalf of the medical endowment fund. Each student has been asked to write to twenty-five of his intimate friends and ask them to contribute a dollar each. In this way the class of sixty members hones to raise at least one thousand dollars for the fund. PSYCHOLOGIST OF NOTE SPEAKS AT HOWARD DINNER Doctor Alfred Adler, noted psychologist and educator of Vienna, Austria, addressed the faculty and student-body at the noon-day assembly at Howard University on Thursday, April 7, on the subject, "Individual Psychology and Education." He also delivered an address in the evening on the subject, "The Feeling of Inferiority in Childhood and Later." Doctor Adler has written seven al books and edits a well-known magazine on psychology. He is a practicing physician of Vienna, and has developed the school embodying the idea of individual psychology. He has successfully addressed audiences in New York and vinity during the past few weeks. The underlying thought supported by Doctor Adler is that individual psychology has made the study of human behaviour an exact science. Supported entirely by the growing recognition of its followers and workers it has illuminated not only the fields of medicine, but also has pioneered in the understanding of philosophy, aesthetics, pedagogy and religion. It has developed a living knowledge of human nature applicable to every human being, useful to every living man. The goal of individual psychology, he thinks, will remain to substitute better methods of living for old and useless ones. It will demonstrate that the only happiness is the happiness that originates in social cooperative usefulness. It has shown scientifically, he claims, that the behaviour pattern which originates in the first years of childhood proves often to be a damaging and harmful one. The life-lies, the delusions, the deep-rooted errors that accompany such a false behaviour pattern, Doctor Adler says, respond to the individual psychological method of treatment as to no other. This treatment consists not only of the application of a theory, but in the utilization of an art. It is not the removal of symptoms, it is the contagious alignment of the individual of the challenge of life. The summer session of the Bishops' Council of the A. M. E. Church will be held in Bethel A. M. E. Church, in Pittsburgh, Pa., June 23 to 27, 1927. Rev. J. C. Anderson is pastor of Bethel Church.

(Pacific Coast News Bureau)—The frugality of Tom Williams Bureau, deceased colored janitor of the Marine Bank Building, created an estate of $10,000 and a law suit as well. His will, a self drawn document of the dollar variety evidently used as an economical saving of lawyers' fees, has proven a case of penny wise and pound foolish, for the will was recently denied probate on the grounds that it was improperly drawn. The will is being contested by Ruth Williams, a daughter of Tom's by a former marriage. It leaves the estate, property valued at $10,000, to the widow, Rose Williamson.

Rev. Dr. Waldron, the pastor, is constantly reminding the church, that Christian people, who believe in the Bible, and who are seeking to follow its precepts, ought to emphasize the resurrection of Christ rather than the manmade festival, Easter. Dr. Waldron says, that the word, Easter, occurs in the Bible but once and that is a mistranslation of the word "Passover"; he also says, that the New Testament is full of the doctrine of the Resurrection of Christ and of the believers, in Him—and that it is the crowning event in the life and work of Christ. In keeping with this teaching, Shiloh Church will present in all of its services next Sunday, the thought of the Resurrection, rather than that of Easter. The day begins with an early morning prayer meeting at 5 o'clock, to be led by Rev. J. Z. Horton, and at 6 o'clock, the pastor will baptize a number of new members. At the 11 o'clock services, Rev.

If this is true, pray tell me, someone, the reason for such an obnoxious move. Nothing could be done that would more injure this affair, the biggest of annual high school events, than the acquiring of white persons to officiate. Surely, no good would come of it, and—well a hint to the wise, etc. Just before going to press, Captain Arthur C. Newman, military instructor of high school cadets, was interviewed, and the statement he made in regard to the rumor served as the proverbial "sunshine after the storm." "No," the Captain emphatically replied to the writer's question, "If white judges are had I shall surely be absent." Saw an article in the Afro-American last week which stated that Howard had, previous to her final announcement, given out a statement that the Open Championship Track and Field Day would take place on May 7. Coach Watson says he was never more surprised than when he read the story. If the Blue and White authorities made any such statement and then changed her date to May 14, I'm sure they made it to the writer of that article—alone. According to Kappa Alpha Psi players, the Omega lads have laid a false claim to the Fraternity Championship. It seems the Delta boys caused to be published in a daily paper of Sunday, April 3, a story of the Omega-Alpha game on the preceding Saturday. This game was won by the Gold and Purple frat. The article, to which the Four Horsemen members object, read as follows: "The Howard University interfraternity championship series was decided yesterday at Lincoln College when the Omega Phi Phi quint defeated, for the second time, the tossers of Alpha Phi Alpha, 21 to 17. The Kappa Alpha Pi five, which defeated the Omegas, has declined their challenge for completion of a three-game series, offering instead a national fraternity team in opposition." The Red and Gold players conend that as they had already won a best two-of-three series they felt that the Delta team had no right to expect a third game. Kappa members say that the offer to play Omega with a National Fraternity team came about when the Gold and Purple fraternity declared eligible only fellows who were in college, to play in the Kappa-Omega series. The Four Horsesmen would be broken up, then, according to those whom the writer interviewed last Saturday due to the fact that Simpson and Whitted are both out of school. A national team would include the two named as well as Wheatley and Spencer of Morgan College. While it is the writer's opinion that a local fraternity series should consist of members of local fraternities, it is not considered right that because some of these members do not happen to be in Howard at present, they should be barred from participation. Spencer, the writer is told, although in Baltimore is still a member of the local chapter of the Kappa Alpha Psi. Simpson, though not a student at present is a member of the Washington Chapter. The same applies to Whitted. Can anyone imagine a 30-19 score for a baseball game? 'Twas by such a count that the Howard University Freshmen defeated the Manassas Institute nine last Monday at Manassas. HILLSDALE, NEW TEAM, TO MAKE DEBUT THIS SEASON A new independent nine bearing the name of Hillsdale A. C. is preparing for a strenuous baseball campaign. The team, said to be of first class calibre will be managed by Charles Green. Green is well known in local athletics. Having gathered a host of talent he feels confident that his squad will experience little trouble carrying off District. Championship honors. In a practice game Sunday of last week with the Red Devils, the Hillsdales outclassed their rivals in every department, winning 15-6. Pitching and batting were easily the strong points in the game. Van Smith, second baseman, and Johnson, a pitcher, both members of the fast Virginia Quicksteps last season will be seen in the line-up of the new organization. Any teams desiring games will address their correspondence to Van Smith, Bond Building. CHANGE IN BASKETBALL RULES See next issue of The Washington Tribune for the changes in basketball rules which changes take effect next season. MOORE, FEATURE IN HOWARD MEET MOORE, FEATURE IN HOWARD MEET Gus Moore, former school boy miler and cross country champion of New York State, and who has proved to be a sensation and outstanding figure in collegiate ranks for the past year, will be a special attraction at the Howard Open Championships, May 14. In addition to making several formidable scholastic records, Moore has some A impressive races in a class with Willie Ritola, the country's out- standing distance man. This lad has wonderful natural ability and his fighting spirit cannot be surpassed by any man on the cinder path. The eyes of the world are upon him. It is expected that, with one or two more years back of him, he will not only hold the colored championship for mile and two-mile events, but will be the country's best, regardless of race. As a matter of fact, Moore has already been picked as a likely candidate for the United States Olympic Team, for 1928. It will be remembered that at the last open championships held at Howard University, Moore was the most colorful runner of the afternoon. He won the mile event with ease and to the surprise of the great mass of spectators, he returned a few minutes later to win the two-mile event in record time. The management expects to give some promising distance men large handicaps in a race with Moore who will start from scratch so that the man may have a chance to extend himself and establish another record. Moore is not only a capable runner, but is a modest athlete who has gained favor in the public eye. With the national open championships being held in the Howard stadium, it will be worth while to see Moore in the mile and two-mile events, to say nothing of the other luminaries who will appear at this meet. COLORED GRID STAR KILLED IN AUTO CRASH PASADENA, Cal. (Pacific Coast News Bureau)—Gordon Hawkins, 19 years of age, well known popular colored track and football star of the Pasadena Junior College, was instantly killed last week when the light car in which he was riding with A. H. Khazoyan, of this city was struck by a Santa Fe Freight train at the Fremont avenue crossing in South Pasadena. Khazoyan was seriously injured, but will recover. Hawkins leaped just before the train struck the car and his body was cut in two when he rolled under the locomotive. Khazoyan was driving and remained in the car until the train struck it, thereby saving himself from the horrible death of Hawkins. The young athlete, who lived at 117 Waverly Drive, was something of a hero in local school circles and was given most of the credit for the State Junior High School football championship, won by the Pasadena team last fall. LEDROTT TIGERS PRACTICE Captain Burrell Kenner took his LeDroit Tigers through their regular weekly practice on the Howard Playground last Sunday morning. A 9-inning game against the newly organized Pirate A. C. was the routine the Tiger boss used. Kenner was in the line-up with a number of his regulars. Willie Hope, Bunny and Mace Jefferson, Wiggins, Baylor, Manley, and Marty Lewis were among those who saw action. Nickens and Davis were on the grounds, but were excused from participation.

The game, played for the benefit of the Senior Medical Endowment Fund, went to the Baltimore lads 29-22 after the Collegians had outclassed the All-Fratters in every department. A crowd of some 500 saw "Lanky" Jones and his cohorts hold the quint which had been picked as the All-Frat 25 as neat a lacing as has been dealt a local team this season. The Greek Letter boys showed lack of coordination due to the insufficient amount of practice they had had in preparation for the affair. The Coates-Carpenter-Washington-Campbell-Hill combination was a formidable one and played the fast Collegiate quint to a standstill.

The Sox took the opener in fine style 9-8, but lost the night cap 3-2, when it was called at the end of the fifth. The first game was marked by a 4 run rally in the local's half of the seventh inning. Camden was leading 8-5 when the Sox came in to bat. When the smoke cleared away Carr and Pratt had been punished for 4 runs which put the Taylorites one up. Simpson, former Howard University and LeDroit Tiger star, appeared in the role of pinch hitter. He was unable to connect safely. Black Sox Camden A.B.H.

The Myrtles held their first important practice last Sunday. Dennis Green, the newest acquisition, has rounded out the infield and placed the Myrtle inner works on a par with the city's best. Captain Rufus Barbour at shortstop, "Bucky" Harris at first base, are in the fold in good shape. All candidates for the Myrtle aggregation are urged to be present on the grounds at 24th and Bennings read, northeast, at 5 o'clock Saturday evening fro practice. Four youngsters will adorn Myrtle uniforms with the approach of the Union League opening on May 1. Continued on Page 9 THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY. APRIL 15, 1927 THE REFLECTOR By Sam Lacy This column is in receipt of a letter from Mr. J. L. Whitehead, assistant secretary-treasurer of the Colored Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association. Mr. Whitehead takes offense at the publication in this paper last week, which inferred that Howard had announced the date of her track meet prior to Hampton's announcement. In an attempt to assure the readers of this column that the writer heartily appreciates criticism—adverse or otherwise—of his writings, the letter is published in full: In "The Reflector" column of The Washington Tribune, edition of April 8, 1927, you said in part: "Howard announced prior to March 25, that her annual meet would be held May 14, and the following week the C. I. A. A. authorities at Hampton released an announcement stating that her Inter-Collegiate Track and Field Day would take place on the same day—May 14." You are in error. The C. I. A. A. Press Statement (a copy of which was sent to The Washington Tribune, December 13), which gave a resume of the proceedings of the Sixteenth Annual Meeting which was held at A. & T. College, Greensboro, N. C., December 10-11, 1926, announced the Sixth Annual Track Meet. On page 3, paragraph 2, of the press release is the following: "The Sixth Annual Track Meet was sanctioned by the association and it will be held at Armstrong Field, Hampton Institute, on Saturday, May 14, 1927." The announcement you referred to in this week's edition of your publication was merely to call attention to the date which had been previously announced. Hampton is to be host to the C. I. A. A. on Saturday, May 14, 1927, and it was solely through the courtesy of that institution that a second article bearing on this year's meet was sent to the Negro Press. I am sure you will appreciate my calling your attention to your erroneous statement, and I, hope you may apologize to the C. I. A. A. in your next week's poor. It is true, the writer finds after referring to his files, that the review of the C. I. A. A. meeting of December 10 and 11 carried the following statement: "The Sixth Annual Track Meet was sanctioned by the association and it will be held at Armstrong Field, Hampton Institute, on Saturday, May 14, 1927." The author of this column regrets that such an erroneous statement as the one Mr. Whitehead objects to was carried last week. The mistake was made through an oversight, and not with any ill intent. The Washington Tribune Sports Department makes no effort to support neither Howard nor the C. I. A. A. The sole desire of this paper is to see justice done where justice is due. The fact remains, however, that notwithstanding that the C. I. A. A. announced her track date some four months ago, the change from her custom of using the third Saturday in May each year has resulted in the conflict of the two meets that will now take place on May 14. The fact that Howard has always, with but one exception, held her annual track and field day on the second Saturday in May, should have been sufficient cause for the C. I. A. A. authorities to believe that Howard would continue to select that day, and that the C. I. A. A. could have ascertained just what was what so that neither she nor Howard would suffer. Howard tells us that her assumption was that the Seaside affair would take place on the third Saturday in May as has been the case for the past five years. Such an assumption is easily justified. TRIBUNE CATALOGUE Last week the Washington Tribune published a page from the Tribune Sports Catalogue, and announced that beginning with that issue a page-a-week would be published. This catalogue includes every colored athlete of note with whom Washington sport lovers have come in contact. Page 2 of the Tribune catalogue brings forth the picture of John A. Burr, instructor of Physical Education at Howard University. Burr has guided the Bison basketball and baseball teams for the past several seasons. His record as a mentor is among the best. Burr knows the court game in its finest stages, and his judgment on the diamond is rare and of the highest calibre. LINCOLN UNIVERSITY TO HOLD TRACK MEET MAY 21 LINCOLN UNIVERSITY TO HOLD TRACK MEET MAY 21 Lincoln University will hold its Second Annual Track and Field Open Championship on Saturday, May 21. All schools, colleges, and clubs are urged to have representatives in the meet. Events included in the affair will be: the 100, 220, and 440 yard dashes; the 380, 1-mile and 2-mile runs; the high and broad jump; the pole vault, shot put, and discus throw. the mile relay and the sprint medley relay.

SIX TEAMS REGISTERED IN 1927 UNION LEAGUE SIX TEAMS REGISTERED IN 1927 UNION LEAGUE The 1927 Union Baseball League will consist of six teams, among which will be found Washington's leading semi-pro nines. The Piedmonts, a newly organized aggregation, were accepted into the loop last Sunday. The new organization is under the management of J. E. Stanton, 1926 Stonewall A. C. leader, and a number of his last season veterans will go with him to the Piedmonts. Myrtles, Washington Giants, Oriental Tigers, LeDroit Tigers, and the Alexandra Lafayettes are the other clubs to be represented in the circuit. Games in Alexandria Games are to be played every Sunday, beginning May 1, on grounds at 24th street and Benning road, northeast, South Capital and P streets, southwest; and in Alexandria, Virginia. The LeDroit Tigers (1925 and 1926 champions) will meet the Myrtles in the inaugural affair at 24th and Bennhigs road, while the Piedmonts are busy in Alexandria against the Lafayettes, and the Orientalts are play hosts to the Washington Giants on the southwest diamond. Elgie Richardson will be the only other new manager beside Stanton. The former Union League umpire has taken the reins of the Oriental Tigers. The arbiting will be taken care of Messrs. Guy, Barber and Payne. OAKLAND. FIGHTER DENIES HE IS COLORED OAKLAND, Cal. (Pacific Coast News Bureau).—Ray Walker, who opened the show in a bout with Ray Ravini at the Godfrey-Roper battle at the Auditorium, Wednesday night, was very much peeved in being billed as a Negro. Ray, who is very dark, denies that he is colored, declaring that he is part Spanish and part Cherokee Indian. He states that he was born in Madrid, Spain, 23 years ago, and has been boxing in California for the last three years. His father is a April 9, 1927 --- Games in Alexandria STORER COLLEGE HARRY WILLS PASSES BETTERSHOWARD THROUGH WASHINGTON The Storer College nine defeated the Howard University baseball team, 9-6 in the opening game of the baseball season at the new Howard Stadium last Friday afternoon. Storer got away to a 4 run lead in the very first inning, but the Blue and White warriors evened the count in their half of the third inning. Later the visitors went out in front once more, this time never to be headed again. Prudhomme and Roy shared the hurling for the Bisons, and while they allowed less hits than the Storer College pitcher the West Virginia swats came when they were most timely. Twelve hits was the extent of the damage done the invading twirler against the seven garnered off the local pair. Jimmie Walker, Howard outfielder, was the hero of the game. He pounded out 3 hits, each of which produced a run. Roaming all over the center pasture, Walker did yeoman service from a defensive angle. Despite Howard's poor showing the followers of the Blue and White team are very optimistic, due largely to the fact that several of her first string players were out of the initial line-up. Next week the regulars leave for a trip through North and South Carolina during which they will meet the best teams the Carolinas afford. FILLY ADDED TO DUDLEY'S STRING By S. H. Dudley, Sr. Well the track conditions did not suit me nor my horses at Bowie, so on Sunday I shipped to Havre de Grace, and will try my luck up there. We also added one more horse to our list. On Friday morning at 6:30 a.m. (rather early for me to be up, but times and conditions will make a man do many things), I saw a filly work at Bennings and purchased her. So we can't be doing so bad to have enough to buy another horse. My partner, J. S. Key, is an actor. I didn't know it when I doubled with him, so if we fail we are going on the stage. I will do my act and he will sing the blues, and he sure can sing 'em, but when he found out that I had added another horse to our string he was all smiles and began singing. "Every Little Bit Added to What You Got Makes Just a Little Bit More," and for an encore he sang, "Won't That Be Fine?" The new filly's name is Lady Edna and it was purchased from Johnie Schore, trainer for E. G. McClane, the Washington millionaire sportman and journalist. This is the second purchase from the same stable. The Maid was purchased late last fall from them. The Maid has only started once at Bowie; and for the first time in his life Snuffy finished out of the money. No alibi to offer. More Colored Men Getting Into the Racing Game "Scrappy!" Manning bought a horse and gave him to Johnnie Johnson to train. Mr. Johnson trained the great horse, "Sting," and won several big stakes. The horse has not won since Mr. Johnson stopped training him. Yes, Mr. Johnson is colored. "Buck" Robinson, of Baltimore, has a string of horses and has a good mud running filly Donaretic won once, and finished second once. Then, too, Max Smart who trains for S. Ross put over a long shot. The colored boys are cutting up at Bowie and they will pull off some more good stuff. All they need is a chance and you sure have that on the turf. The machines know no color line—just bet and get paid. It's a great game if you don't weaken, but I'm not so strong. Some hot stuff is coming off at Havre de Grâce. UNION BEATS ST. PAUL. 11-4 LAWRENCEVILLE, Va., Apr. 7 -Virginia Union University beat St. Paul School, 11 to 4, in the initial c. I. L. A. A. baseball game of the 1927 season here today. The game was saturated with mediocre performance and the playing of the teams on a whole was indicative of new and inexperienced material. Offensively, there was little to choose between the two nines, but, defensively, Union capped every emergency and maintained a substantial lead after the second inning. Shield's action in the dual role of short-stop pitcher and Artis' four hits out of five times up featured the work of the individual players. St. Paul ab. r. h.Union ab. r. h.

JACKIE COOGAN AND TOM MIX AT THE REPUBLIC. Jackie Coogan has had his hair cut! That event of really national importance was carried off with all proper ceremonies. The event, of course, was not allowed to slip into unrecorded. Some eight film cameras were centered on the operation, as the process could not be repeated for a "retake." Something like 3,000 barbers all with an eye to business and an appreciation of the national advertising THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, APRIL 15, 1927 they would get if permitted to barber Jackie's famous locks, applied for the job but without success, while John McDevitt, of San Francisco, the tried and Coogar family barber, was brought ove from San-Francisco especially to JACKIE COOGAN "JOHNNY GET YOUR HAIR CUT" the job and, considering the number of spectators who were watching him at the time, McDevitt performed a very creditable job. A large lock of the golden Coogan hair was carefully preserved by Jackie's ma and was later mounted under glass in the library of the Coogan home. Which all leads up to the fact that Jackie's latest picture "Johnny Get Your Hair Cut," a thrilling romance of the race track by Gerald Beaumont will be shown at the Republic on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, April 17, 18, 19.

HANDY ORCHESTRA APPEARS NEW YORK City.—George Anthiel, the celebrated composer (white) just from Paris, appeared A. at Carnegie Hall on Sunday evening, April '0, in his ballet, "Mechanique" which required eleven pianists for performance. In addition to this, the services of W. C. Handy and a twenty-six piece orchestra as ised by Allie Ross had been contracted for a "Jazz Symphony" by Mr. Anthiel, which afforded the first opportunity colored musicians have had to interpret an ultra-modern score, which contains unheard of harmonies and almost inimpossible rychms yet underlying all is exquisite beauty. BOSTON BUSINESS MAN ANSWERS DUDLEY ON COLORED MOVIES The Letter S. H. Dudley, Washington, D.C. Hello Old Pal: I have been in Boston for about eleven years. For the past seven years I have been in the real est ate business. It was hard pulling at first but I have outlived it. Things look brighter now, and I am beginning to feel that I have not wasted my time, but I am always trying to do better, and also to advance our race. This time I have an opportunity to do something for you and your pro- fession and hundreds of others. After reading your articles a bout colored pictures I would like to state that fortunately I am in a position to place you and a number of others in the moving picture business as producers. I have a studio thoroughly equipped; on ten acres of land with a lake; an administration building; a laboratory, a large building of 45,000 square feet of flooring, thirty-one dressing rooms; all scenery; a carpentry shop; a printing shop; in fact everything that goes to make a first class studio. The original cost amounted to about $45,000, equipment and all, and my price is $105,000. Now if you and a group of other business men are ready to do business let us get together and put your half million dollar corporation over. I believe we can do In answer to the above, I must say that it is a lucky find. Now if, let us say, ten good sound business men would combine themselves and deposit. $1000 each, giving us $10,000 to incorporate and organize, and take an option on this plant, and then sell stock to the public. I am sure that this could not fail. I believe that colored pictures can occupy a position in the moving picture industry just the same as do other colored enterprises in other fields. I do honestly think that this would be the biggest thing our group has ever put over. Then too, by selling stock all over the country, that would be some assurance that the enterprise would be a success, for we would have people who would be part owners in each city. They would then be more interested and become boosters. I feel safe in saying that this corporation would be in a position to declare a ten or twenty per cent ARNOLD'S T. O. B. A.

(Pacific Coast News Bureau)—Herman H Jackson, colored youth who was a liberty on parole for a statutory offense against a 15-year-old white girl, was sentenced last week to San Quentin for from 2 to 100 years by Superior Judge Burnell. Jackson who married the girl in Tia Juana, Mexico, had previously been granted ninety days on the sheriff's road camp with the understanding that he was not to see or write to the girl. DUKE ELLINGTON. ARTIST. HOLDS PROMINENT PLACE IN BROADWAY'S SPOT-LIGHT From the Oriental Cafe in Washington, D. C. to the Kentucky Club one of the brightest spots in New York's gay night life is the record of Duke Ellington, conductor of what leading judges have called the foremost colored jazz orchestra in America. Ellington, is twenty-eight years old, and a graduate of Armstrong Tech. He attended the Music School of Washington, and was once a pencil of the famous Henry Grant, head of that school. In accounting for his success, Ellington insists that all his remarkable rhythms and harmonies would not be before so wide a public today were it not for Irving Mills of Jack Mills, Inc., music publishers. This firm, publishing such numbers of Duke Ellington as "East St. Louis Toledo," "Birmingham Breakdown." "A Black & Tan Fantasy," "Down Home Stomp," and others has enabled him to enjoy a large popularity. So far-reaching is Mr. Mill's interest in Negro music, that he is publishing a book of syncope-digens in Negro folklore written by Jo Trent. Trent will be remembered as Duke Ellington's collaborator in some of the latter's most important successes. Ellington is a feature artist for the Brunswick Phonograph Co. 7th and T Sts., N.W.
