LAWYER ERNEST JOHNSON KILLED IN AUTO ACCIDENT JUDGE DENIES STANDARD LIFE RECEIVERSHIP; BOTH SIDES CLAIMING VICTORY FIRST in Advertising and Circulation LAWYER JUDGE DENIES LIFE RECEIVE SIDES CLAIM ATLANTA, Ga., June 2—Both the plaintiffs and the defendant are claiming victory in the suit brought by Bishop Joseph S. Flipper and nineteen other policy-holders against the National Benefit Life Insurance Company. The case was heard in the Superior Court of Fukun County last Friday. Judge John D. Humphries, presiding, denied a receivership but granted an injunction restraining the National Benefit Life Insurance Company from removing any of the assets of the Standard Life Insurance Company of Georgia from that state until the case is finally disposed of. An auditor was appointed to determine the amount of money each of the policyholders who are suing the company, is entitled to receive. The court order does not interfere with the National Benefit continuing to do business. SHERWOOD EDDY TO PREACH H. U. BACCALAUREATE SHERWOOD EDDY TO PREACH H. U.

WILLIAMS FREED OF MURDERING MAJOR GAINES Robert Wilson Williams was acquitted of the murder of Major Gaines by a jury in criminal court No. 1 last Thursday.

PUBLISHED WEEKLY S STANDARD RSHIP; BOTH ING VICTORY FLANNIGAN GETS INDICTED ON TWO FORGERY COUNTS Two indictments charging forgery were returned by the grand jury last Thursday against Clinton T. Flannigan. In the first indictment, Flannigan, Albert Thomas Edwards and Lucy A. Taylor are charged with forging the name of Mrs. Violet B. Warfield, the wife of Dr. William A. Warfield, surgeon-in-chief of Freedmen's Hospital, to 5 promissory notes, a check and a deed of trust. The alleged forgeries were in connection with the placing of an unauthorized loan on the property of Mrs. Warfield at No. 1901 Eleventh street, northwest, without her knowledge. It is alleged that Flannigan put the loan through a local real estate office, giving the 5 forged promissory notes of $1,000 each secured by a forged deed of trust and secured from the title company a check for $2,114.92 payable to the order of Mrs. Warfield. The forgeries were discovered March 24 when Edwards sought to cash the check. The Taylor woman was used as a dupe and represented herself as Mrs. Warfield. Forgeries Discovered The second indictment charges that Flannigan, Lucy A. Taylor and Arthur White on January 15, last, forged a check from the title company drawn in favor of Wilhelmina Wunder for $1,547.82 in settlement of an unauthorized loan of $6,000 placed upon her property at 1322 U street, northwest, without her knowledge. The indictment also charges that on January 13 they forged the name of Mrs. Wunder to a deed of trust on her property securing payment of 6 promissory notes of $1,000, which they also forged. Headquarters detectives claim that there are other cases involving Flannigan, which will be revealed as soon as he is arrested. He is a fugitive from justice. Edwards is being held in the District jail in default of bail of $10,000. The woman was released on bond of $1,000. DR. CARSON TO READ PAPER AT NEW YORK CLUB DR.

N. A. A. C. P. AND HOWARD THEATRE MANAGEMENT TO GIVE FLOOD-BENEFIT, TUES. The Howard Theatre management and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will hold a monster midnight benefit performance for the Mississippi Flood Sufferers at the Howard Theatre, Tuesday, June 7 at 12:15 sharp. This is not the regular midnight performance of Howard shows but is in the nature of vaudeville. At this performance some of the best stage stars in the country have volunteered their services for this worthy cause and it is hoped that the performance will be ably supported by local theatre-goers. Miller and Lyles to Appear Among the stars who will grace this performance will be the nationally know team of Miller and Lyles, who have not been seen in Washington for many years; Evelyn Preer, movie and stage star of renown, will be assisted by Edward Thompson; the team of Salem Tutt Whitney and Maybeile Ridley who are appearing at the Lincoln will lend color to the program, as will Gertie Jackson and the stars of the "Lucky Sambo" company who are playing at the Howard during this week. The program is being sponsored by Neval H. Thomas, while the stars and other stage presentations are being arranged by the well known producer, Irvin C. Miller. Funds to Sufferers "As the theatre is being donated by the management and the talent is being furnished gratuitously, it is clearly evident that all the receipts from this performance will go direct to the Mississippi Flood Sufferers, and as we already know, their needs are very acute," was a statement made by one of the managers of the movement. All seats in the orchestra and boxes will be reserved the same as they are for the regular Howard midnight show, and at the same prices namely, boxes $1.10, and orchestra, 75 cents, with general admission to the balcony 50 cents. Tickets are now on sale at the box office of the theatre. NEVAL H. THOMAS SPEAKS AT MANASSAS Neval H. Thomas spoke at the closing of the colored rural school at Falls Church, Va.

On March 17 two white girls, Margaret Akers and Julia Mooney, both high school students, made an outcry that three Negroes had assaulted them in their room. Blood-hounds were secured and led the chase to the home where three Negro men lived. They were arrested. Two fere released and one held for investigation. While the man was being held, a mob formed and stormed the Court House in an effort to lynch him. Their efforts were thwarted by quick action on the part of the county authorities who summoned state troops. The man was later released. Certain Coffeyville citizens became suspicious and persuaded the county authorities to hire a detective to investigate the matter. As a result of this move, a white Wichita, Kansas, and Julia Whichita, Kansas, and Julia Mooney of this city, a senior in the high school, were arrested. Kennedy is charged with assault while the Mooney girl was charged with accessory before the fact. people, over one thousand names. Before the arrest of these two had been secured to a petition asking for a special grand jury investigation of the affair. At the graduation exercises of the high school Tuesday, a vacant chair was mute evidence of the Mooney girl's incarceration. County authorities have not decided as to when the case will be presented to the grand jury. Other arrests are expected. A. Tignor, Dr. W. L. Tignor, Dr. Cottes Cook, Dr. U. J. Daniels. Dr. F. D.

Bottom— Photo by Seuriock ON SHOWS OF STUDENT EXAGGERATED Evidently a city-wide rumor that was spread during the past week to the effect that the Armstrong cadet battalion spurred on by members of the student body had "beaten up" cadets of the Dunbar battalion, has been greatly exaggerated. While there was a great deal of rioting in the vicinity of the two schools on last Friday evening after companies of Dunbar had taken off all honors, so far none of the Armstrong students involved have been identified. Every year for the past decade there have been numerous disturbances following the announcement of winners in the annual drill and this being the case, the one this year, though larger in proportions, can hardly be taken as unusual. An investigation disclosed that while Armstrong students did actually participate in the several attacks upon Dunbar cadets, the real instigators and leaders of the attack were Armstrong sympathizers, not members of either school. It is known, however, that though in the minority there were Armstrong students and cadets among the dissatisfied partisans. The only case brought to police attention seems to have been merely a boyish fight between individuals for a personal grievance which had no bearing on the outcome of the drill. Two cadets, Frank Laney and Marcellus Turner, students at Dunbar and Armstrong respectively, became engaged in an altercation in which the former was the loser. Turner was arrested at his home, 753 Girard street at 1:30 o'clock Tuesday morning upon a warrant taken out for him by the parents of Laney. A collateral of $10 was given and forfeited. In a conference with Principal G. David Houston of the Armstrong Technical High School, the writer was told that every effort was being made to identify those few students of the school who participated in the disturbance. A report from Lloyd Mase, custodian of military equipment of the Twenty-fourth regiment reveals that, contrary to rumor, no damage was done the rifles.

Johnson, a promising young lawyer of this city, was killed Thursday night in an auto accident near Richmond, Va. He was driving in company with four Howard University students on his way to Richmond, to attend a dance given by the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity. The party was travelling between 25 and 30 miles an hour; it was raining, and the road was slippery. They ran upon a parked car about 10 p.m. between Ashland and Richmond. Members of the party state that they do not know exactly what Johnson thought when he sighted the parking-light of the car, which was visible for only a short distance. It was evidently not apparent to the driver whether the car was standing or moving. Just before reaching the car, Johnson applied the brakes, the car skidding from side to side, side, swiping the parked car, and overturning. Johnson's head struck the cement road. The other members of the party, William Hopkins, Harry Mickey, David McNeilly and James Eton escaped serious injury, though Mickey received a bruised leg. Little damage was done to the parked car; the fenders were bent slightly. There were five people in the parked car, none of whom were injured. Johnson's car, a Hudson conch, was almost completely demolished. Johnson and the other four members of his party were all members of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity. The other members of the party are still in Richmond, being required to stay there until after the coroner's inquest. Attorney Johnson is well known in this city. He had a bright future before him. He was a graduate of M Street High School where he starred as a football player. Later he attended Howard University and graduated from the Howard University law school a few years back. While at Howard he again starred in football. He was a member of the District bar and was practicing law in the office of Houston and Houston, 615 F street, northwest. He lived at 1339 V street, northwest. His mother is grief stricken, as she did not know her son was making the trip. She hought that he was planning to work late into the ing the trip. She thought that he was persuaded to take the trip to Richmond with his fraternity brothers. ORDER OF MOOSE IS RESTRAINED IN NEW YORK CITY ORDER OF MOOSE IS RESTRAINED IN NEW YORK CITY NEW YORK, June 1—The Gratton law loomed as a real menace to the holding of the annual convention of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World here in August when Justice Churchill of the Supreme Court of New York State granted an injunction on May 27 restraining the Supreme Lodge of the Loyal Order of Moose from doing business in this state. The injunction against the Moose was based upon the injunction obtained by the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks from using a name so closely resembling that of the white Elks as to be calculated to mislead and deceive the public and persons having transactions with either organization. The use of the name "Moose," the conduct of initiations and the use of Moose regalia by the colored organization are strictly prohibited by the injunction. Particular emphasis is placed upon the language of the injunction which indicates that even if the Supreme Lodge of white Moose could not property sue, as was contended by the counsel for the colored Moose, any member of the Order could. The injunction against the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks in 1904. Colored Elk lodges, however, have existed in New York by suffrance since, but the grand trustees of the order have instructed Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson that they must have this injunction dissolved by June 15, or he must call the convention to meet in some other city. SOCIETY and CLUB MRS. J. A.

Orientals Head Union Loop----Armstrong Wins Orientals Sam'sScripts O. Brown, versatile second sacker of the Washington Black Sox is without a doubt, promising. The little fellow is a veritable wonder in fielding his post, but at the bat, the Sox second baseman is a trifle weak. In last Sunday's double bill Brown handled 17 chances without a single miscue. Seven assists and three putouts was the extent of his toil in the first game while, in the second, he obtained three assists and four putouts. Strangely enough, H. Brown, Oriental Tiger captain and star centerfielder, played through both games of the Oriental-Myrtle battle for first place in the Union League last Sunday and was credited with no putouts. Eighteen innings without a chance is quite a unique record. Morris Brown seems to have struck the heat of Eastern baseball magnates. Two of his pitchers, Spruill and Bradley, have been signed by Eastern League teams. Th former is to join the Bacharachs while the latter has agreed to cast his lot with Ben Taylor. With consistent pitching now, Ben Taylor seems about to realize his greatest baseball ambition. When the Black Sox boss left Indianapolis to come east he was given a general raspberry. Since then he has bent every effort toward going back out West for a world's series with a championship team from the East. His bunch now leads the pack, and if he can get a three-star staff to hold him up—like Yokely, Strong and Force have been doing so far this season Ben stands a good chance to accomplish his aim. Dick Temple, Washington boy and former star all round athlete at Armstrong Technical High School was at the initial station for the Lincoln University baseball team when they plaved Howard on Decoration Day. The Lion first-sacker accepted 14 clean chances. He also obtained 2 hits in 4 trips to the plate. Twilight baseball at South Capitol and P streets is surely going over big. Just about 2500 persons saw the Oriental Tiger-Washington All Star game Wednesday evening. The Tribune Sports Department is anxious to organize a Tribune Baseball League, and considering the large number of teams around Washington in the Senior division, such an organization should be possible. Managers are requested to be present at an organization meeting to be held Monday evening at 6:30 p.m. sharp, at the Washington Tribune office, 920 U street, northwest. If the managers themselves find it inconvenient to be present they are urged to send a representative. Among those teams being considered are the Amacostia Athletics, Togan A.C., Gladiators, Lincoln A.C., Orioles, Monarchs, Forestville A. C., Washington All Stars, D. C. Specials, Southern Stars, Black Barons, Mt. Vernons, Dulin and Martin A.C. and Hillsdales. The co-operation of these teams is urged because it is believed to be a worth while undertaking. MANASSAS STOPS ARM- STRONG'S STREAK MANASSAS, Va., May 26. — Manassas broke the winning streak of the Armstrong High School baseball team by handing the Washington lads a 13-8 trimming here today. Henderson, on the mound for the local nine, pitched steady ball, and with better support may have made his victory more decisive. The Thetin infield, usually reliable, cracked on several occasions. Two or three times the Orange and Blue infielded chances cleanly, but failed to realize what to do with the ball. Wildness, throughout the game, on the part of the Tech twirlers ably assisted Manass in her offensive operations.

THE SPORT REVIEW UNION LEAGUE DOUBLE 0 Elzie Richards' Oriental Tigers went into undisputed leadership in the Union Baseball League last Sunday by taking both ends of a double-header from the Myrtle A. C. The scores were 12-5 and 12-3. This attraction, played at 24 A. C. and Bennings road, northeast, was looked forward to with great anticipations by Union League fans. The week previous by the Myrtles' twin victory over the LeDoribs and the Oriental's split with the Lafayette. the league was deadlocked. Hence, the meet of these two teams Sunday drew a large crowd. The LeDroit Tigers went into a tie with the Myrtles for second place honors by winning a pain of games from the Washington Giants. Beverly handled the pitching end for the champions in the opener, while Nickens and LaBotte shared in taking care of the nightcap's hurling assignment. The score of the finals was 9-7 locked. Hence the meeting to these while the first clash resulted as a 4-2 affair. Alexandria's entry, the Lafayette, broke even in their tilt with the Piedmonts. The local boys earned the decision 7-3 to begin hostilities, but succumbed 6-1 in the afternoon's closing contest. All games were well attended, considering the threatening weather conditions. College Career Closes 1 JOHN CODWELL Sensational Howard University second baseman, who on May 30 ended his college baseball career in a blaze of glory. In the annual clash with Lincoln, Codwell starred at bat and in the field. The clever secondsacker hit a single, two doubles and a home run, stole five bases and handled seven difficult chances without an error. Codwell has been Howard's regular keystone guardian for the past four years. He graduates in June and plans to study medicine. BLACK SOX WIN, LOSE, TIE WITH N.E. MOTORS The Washington Black Sox, after having a streak of 7 straight victories lost the first of the holiday bill games to the Northeast Motors Company nine. Four games in two days against this team resulted in 2 wins, a loss and a tie. Sunday, the Black Sox won both ends of the double-header. Lefty Smith, on the mound in the opener, pitched superb ball for the winners and, with great support behind him, was able to blank the white team, 7-0. Spike Bland assumed the hurling duties of the second game Sunday and gained the verdict through Ford's and Greenfield's timely bingles. The white team trailing 3-2 pushed the tying run across in their last turn at bat. With the count 3-3 and two men out ahead of him, George Ford connected for a long triple. Then with the crowd yellin, like wild, "Eggie" Greenfield crashed on a line to right center to win old ball game. Monday, the Sox played listless ball behind Lacy and Grant. Lacy lost the opener, and Grant's pitching netted a tie. Nine errors sand-wicked between 11 hits accounted for the 9-6 defeat in the matinee game. Leading 3-1 until the sixth inning of the nightcap the Black Sox inserted 3 consecutive displays and allowed the Northeast players to count 4 runs. A last minute rally placed the colored lads on a par at 5 all where the score remained. ELKS TO FORM The Morning Star Lodge, No. 40, I. B. P. O. E. of W., is desirous of organizing a lodge baseball team. All Elks interested in such an attempt are requested to meet tonight. Friday, June 3, at the Elks' Home. SAMUEL H. LACY, Sports Editor PHILA, May 30—Ben Taylor's Baltimore Black Sox made a clean sweep of the holiday bill at Hilldale Park, taking the morning game from the Daisies by the score of 9 to 4 and captured the afternoon fracas 4 to 2. The Black Sox jumped Phil Cockrell for four runs in the first inning of the a.m. tilt and were never in danger of relinquishing the lead. Cockrell was sent to the showers before the first inning was completed and Scripy Lee who finished for Ed. Bolden's team was also hit hard by the Sox. Strong was very effective against the Hilldale battles in the first game and Bill Force was equally cunning in the nightcap and but for a couple of miscues by Brown in the fourth inning the Daisies would have drawn blanks in the second contest. Winters relieved Campbell in the fifth inning and held the Sox safe but the home team was unable to overcome the Black Sox lead. Pete Washington and Crush Holloway featured the defensive play of the Sox. The victories give the Sox seven straight wins and they are now in first place by a comfortable margin.

Thomas Southern, of Los Angeles, Cal., was high point man, having garnered 17 and 1-2 points. He placed first in the 100-yard dash, the 220-yard dash, the 120-yard high hurdles and was anchor man on the relay team, composed of, aside from himself, Jackson, Gillespie and Robinson. Thomas Robinson, of Washington, Pennsylvania, was second in garnering points, having made 13 and 1-2 points to his credit. He placed second in the 100-yard dash, first in the broad jump, second in the high jump, third in the javelin and was on the relay team. The meet was held at the Green County Fair Grounds. Handicapped by a dirt track, the following records seem to be quite fair. Key: (W.) Wilmington; (f.) Force, for Wilberforce. ARLINGTON ATHLETICS WIN TWO The Arlington Athletics gave a good account of themselves in taking both ends of their Decoration Day double-header. The first victims were no less than the local Hillsdale team, which team they defeated 9-8, and the second nine to fall before the onslaught of the A's was that representing the National A. C. of Alexandria. This game ended in a 13-3 route. Hard hitting and errorless support behind the A pitcher proved the D. C. team's undoing. A. Pollard and Jones led the Arlington batters with 3 hits apiece. The Nationals were easy. The winners seemed fond of the National pitchers. Scott connecting for the circuit twice was especially troublesome to the losing hurlers. A. Pollard again garnered a trio of hits. The Athletic's management is especially anxious to book Washington teams. He emphasizes the fact that his club has a diamond only 20 minutes ride from this city and that they play strong and weak teams alike. Write M. A. Richardson, Box 1 3, R.F.D. No. 2, Ballston, VP. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY. JUNE 3. 1927 LINGOLN LIONS LICKED BY BATTING BISONS With Johnny Codwell leading a bombardment against the Lincoln University pitchers on Decoration Day, the Howard Bisons literally swamped the Chester County Lions by a score of 14-8. Each team used two hurlers. Prudhome who started for the local nine gave way to Roy before the first inning was over, and Hall was forced to quit in favor of Walls when it became evident that he 'was not capable of withstanding the Blue and White attack. Codwell, keystone guardian for the home team led the batting. During his afternoon he obtained a home run, two doubles and a single in five trips to the plate. He also gained 4 bases through thefts. His 7 chances a field were handled faultlessly. Captain Monroe also connected for the circuit. ab h o Braden,3b 5 2 1 1 Codwell,2b 5 4 4 F.And'n,cf 3 0 1 Monroe,ss 1 1 5 Walker,lf 5 3 3 Loma c . 5 1 4 Gaskins,rf 5 3 1 Dillam,1b 5 3 7 Prudhoe,e'p 0 0 0 Xoy,p . 4 1 0 Slade,cf . 2 0 1 Totals 49 18 27 *Batted for Anderson in ninth inning Howard ..... 222 142' 01x-14 Lincoln ..... 410 000 003-18 Runs — Braden, Codwell (2), Monroe (3), Walker (3), Lomax, Gaskips (3), Dillam, Roy, Temple (3), Taylor, Jackson (2), Johnson, Sinkler.

MOHAWKS MEET BLACK SOX SUNDAY MOHAWKS MEET BLACK SOX SUNDAY The Washington Black Sox will have their hands full this Sunday when they meet the strongest white semi-professional team in Washington. The Mohawks, for 3 years the city's leader in baseball semi-pro ranks, will present the opposition. W' Fee Collier, Johnny Goetz, Lefty Tripe, and Chaconas teamed with a large number of other stars, the Indians are capable of holding their own with the best. The Hawks have victories over Annapolis and the Northeast Motors Company gained in the past week. The Motor Company nine was defeated by the decisive score of 12-5. Corkins, among the best of local hurlers, was touched for a total of 20 hits in the game against the Mohawks last Saturday. HILLSDALES BEAT TOGANS For games with the winners write M.

Adams' Armstrong High School baseball team took the second game of the Dunbar-Armstrong championship series last Monday by the overwhelming score of 22-2. The victory this year gives Armstrong her seventh straight in the annual interscholastic series. Louie Dabney, versatile Orange and Blue left fielder led both teams 'attack with 5 hits in 7 times at bat. While the result from the start was obvious and the Red and Black team was the weaker, such a decisive trimming would not have been registered had Petty been given even fair support. Many chances afield were lost by a ragged defense, and at bat the First a defense, and at bat the First street schoolboys were outclassed. Two hits were all they were able to garner. Campbell and Levi shared in the pitching roles for the victors, and with only one misuse behind them—that by the usually reliable Johnson—were able to hold their rivals. HARRISBURG GIANTS FALL BEFORE BLACK SOX BATS Oscar Chraleston and his Harrisburg Giants went down to a pair of heartbreaking defeats at the hands of the fast moving Baltimore Black Sox in the double-header last Sunday at Maryland Park, 3-2 and 3-1. Yokely was too much in the first affair, besting Cooper in a battle from start to finish.

J.—The first big event of the 1927 tennis season will be staged at the Plainfield Tennis Club Courts in Plainfield, New Jersey, on Saturday and Sunday, June 25 and 26, when the second annual Cockburn trophy matches are held. The Cockburn trophy is a sterling silver loving cup donated by Captain Joshua Cockburn, the retired commander of many large ships, who now operates a real estate exchange and a steamship agency in New York City. The trophy is a perpetual one, which is completed for annually by teams representing the state associations of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. New York defeated New Jersey in the initial matches played in 1926, and this year New Jersey and Pennsylvania will meet in the challenge round for the right to play New York, the present holder of the cup. When the Jerseyites face the Quakers on June 25, they will present a strong line-up, composed of such stars as Kenneth Words, No. 8 in the American Tennis Association rating, Butler, McWilson, "Hap" Worde, Willis, Miss Marcellus, Mrs. Thornhill, Mrs. Sadler, Miss Vaughan and young Herman Marrow, No. 5 in the A.T.A. junior rating. Pennsylvania will depend on Strange, Ash, Dr. Gordon, Willanova, the Filipino star, Miss Junior, Mrs. Harris and other well known players. The personnel of the defending New York team has not been definitely announced, but it is a sure thing that Saitch, and the A.T.A. champion, George Smith, Hughes, Mrs. Leonard, Mrs. Conick and Mrs. Alston will be strong contenders for places in the line-up. The New Jersey Tennis Association will entertain the visiting teams and a silver mounted plaque will be presented to the winner of the finals. Attorney J. Mercer Burrell, of New Jersey, is chairman of the joint committee for the Cockburn trophy matchness, and E. Harold Hopper will officiate as referee. The New York delegation is headed by Arthur E. Francis, and the Pennsylvania delegation by Miss Laura V. Junior. READ THE TRIBUNE BASEBALL STANDINGS NIP WINTERS' HURLING W. L. Pet. Balto.

In winning the contest, Winters ran his string of Saturday afternoon victories to four, that incidentally takes in all of the week-end games played at the Darby ball lot this season. While the Stars collected seven safe hits, so effective was Winters' hurling, that except for an error on the part of Warfield the Cuban's would have been shut out victims. With Winters taking care of the pitching end, Jake Stevens, the York, Pa. youth put in a busy day around shortstop and time and again came to Winters' rescue with his spectacular fielding. Stevens also applied the punch, in a way of a two-base hit to left field that sent three runners over the plate and practically clinched the contest in the first inning. In this frame Warfield singled past Alfonso with one out, Judy Johnson drew a pass, Thomas fled out to Fabre and then Oscar decided to walk Washington and pitch to Stevens. Jake showed him his error by promptly socking a line double to left that unloaded the bases. Stevens was charged with two errors, but easily atoned for them by accepting ten of his twelve chances on many difficult tries. When the visitors threatened a rally in the ninth inning and had runners on second and third, with two men out, Stevens went across second to take Alfonso's hard hit grounder with one hand and tossed him out at first for the final put out of the game. Oscar, the Cuban spitball pitcher hurled a steady game, but the Darby Daisies bunched their hits in two innings to put the game on ice.

"Women were his prey. This aptly describes the role of John Gilbert in this story of flaming love blended with sinister shadows. Strange were the figures in this show the crowds gaped at. But stranger by far the drama of life they played back of the scenes! An amazing romance, a lurid tale of a rogue, tron between lurid tale of a rogue, trom between ing love. "The Show" is a super-special picture. Fred Thompson, the ace of western stars with his horse, Silver King, in "Silver Comes Through" will be shown on Thursday and Friday, June 9 and 10. It is a romance of the races and the West. On Saturday, June 11, the attraction will be "The Outlaw Dog" with Ranger, king of the dog stars. Talent will be presented at 5:30, 7:30 and 9:30. GLORIA SWANSON AT THE LINCOLN NEXT WEEK Beginning Sunday, June 5, and continuing until Thursday evening, June 9, the Lincoln Theatre will present the beautiful and fascinating Gloria Swanson in her first United Artist Picture "The Love of Sunya." This is the first picture that Miss Swanson has produced with her own company and as a matter of fact it is the first production we have seen Miss Swanson in for quite some time. It is the picture that Roxy picked to open his magnificent six million dollar theatre, hence you may expect to see Gloria Swanson at the height of her career, more beauti- Lincoln Theatre ful and more charming than ever before. "The Love of Sunya" is a production of conflicting love, duty and ambition and is filled with romance, passion, pathos and laughter. It has the mysticism of ancient Egypt. She runs the gamut of characterizations and moves triumphantly through a picture of conflicting emotions. This, her first independent film, produced by herself, is a drama of a girl on life's cross-roads. Fame, money, beauty and love ponit her path for her to choose. Miss Swanson plays five different parts, each portraying beauty, artistry and power. In conjunction with the showing of "The Love of Sunya," the management has induced the well-known team of Salem Tutt Whitney and Maybelle Ridley to stay over for a second week. During the past week this pair have attracted many of their old friends to see them and after receiving numerous requests to hold them over, they were finally prevailed upon to stay a second week and will present an entirely new singing and dancing act. On Friday and Saturday, June 10 and 11, will be shown "The Checkered Flag" with Elaine Hammerstein. This picture portrays a girl who risks her life to save the fortune of a man she loves, even though he believes her guilty of a crime she did not commit. The interviewer's suggestion that this was rather unusual for a woman, met with a storm of denial from this charming interviewe. "It is not at all unusual." Miss Hammerstein protested, "a woman always does fine and splendid things and takes any risk for the man she loves, no matter how he has treated her." This picture is the greatest film of the auto speedway that has ever been made. There are thrills aplenty, most of them occurring during the race in which Miss Hammerstein drives her leaver's car when he does not appear at the proper time and beats them all, including her father's entry. On Saturday the Universal serial "Whispering Smith Ridges" starring Wallace McDonald and J. P. McGowan will be shown. There will also be three big talent shows at 5, 7:15 and 9:15 o'clock. The management announces that beginning Sunday, June 5, the orchestra will be discontinued. Louis Brown who has for the past few seasons pleased the patrons of the Lincoln with his organ recitals, has been retained and will again entertain the public during the summer months. The management also annuances that they are purchasing equipment that will insure better projection. The same pleasing stage presentations will be continued in the future as have been the Lincoln policy in the past. "LUCKY SAMBO" at the HOW ARD NEXT WEEK For one week beginning Monday, June 6th, the Howard Theatre presents to its patrons another of the Columbia Circuit shows. This time it is the show that has smashed every record held by colored burlesque in the world by playin gover 200 consecutive performances on Broadway last summer. It is Hurtig & Seamon's "Lucky Sambo" direct from the Columbia Circuit to the Howard. According to New York critics, about the most blase on earth, pronounced "Lucky Sambo" the fastest dancing show on the road today, which is indeed high praise. Lovers of fine dancing will go wild over the art demonstrated in "Lucky Sambo." The opening is filled with fast moving numbers. It would be unfair to single out any particular individual as the best dancer of the aggregation, but the tap dancing of Sherman Dirkson is a wonderful thing to watch. It has rhythm, grace and delight it combine to make it almost perfect. Billy Higgins, is ably assisted by Joe Byrd, who will keep the audience in an unproar with their THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY. JUNE 3. 1927 comedy antics. Julia Moody assisted by Ernest R. Whitman put over the jazz numbers with a bang. Ernest R. Whitman also has a pleasing baritone voice and is a marvelous whistler. Others in the cast are Hilda Perleno, Berleanna Blanks, Amanda Randolph, Al. F. Watts, Lolita Hall, Cora Winters, George Phillips, an acrobatic dancer of great skill, and the big and famous Black Diamond Speed Chorus, which will please even the most exacting audience. Summing up the show, "Lucky Sambo," a sa whole, is believed to be the best show that has thus far played at the Howard. In addition to "Lucky Sambo," there has been added to the bill for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Esther Ralston in the screen drama "Fashions for Women." This is the first photoplay that has been entirely directed by a woman and is very well appointed with beautiful clothes, beautiful women and gay Parisian life. It depicts the story of a little girl who is poor and in the position of cigarette girl in one of the Parisian clubs, but who, through her beauty rises not only to fame as a beauty and the best dressed woman in Paris, also wins love, wealth and social position by marrying a millionaire. On Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday will be shown "When the Wife's Away" with George K. Arthur. One no doubt remembers the old phrase "When the cat's away the mice will play." This is exactly what happens when the wife's away or when an old man goes to the city and sees some pretty girl. This production will make you laugh and perhaps sigh at the complications that arise when a young couple learn that they are about to inherit a large fortune provided they make good, and the uncle is coming from the country to see that they do before parting with his fortune. If you like delicate complications and a good comedy you should not miss this picture. On Friday night the regular mid-night ramble will begin at 12:15 sharp with two and a half hours of good entertainment. Tickets go on sale the Saturday of the week before the show. Mrs. Ella Prather, a member of the Orchid Club, is out again after a stay of five weeks on the sick list. Mrs. Alice Butler, another member is the proud mother of a little son.

The May Queen, Oleine Hugeley, was a beautiful sight. The eighteen May pole dances were awarded round after round of applause. Over a hundred children participated in the festival.

The Second Annual Platoon Exhibition and Competition between the Randall and Shaw Junior High Schools held at the Howard University Stadium yesterday afternoon was won by the platoon representing Randall with Platoon Leader Horace Banks commanding. Some 1200 spectators witnessed a rivalry which, in its two years of existence has became almost as keen as that between the high schools. The Randall unit, outnumbered two to one garnered the coveted decision. Two Shaw platoons performed as opponents to the lone Crimson and Gray section. The units appeared, Randall's first, followed by those of Shaw, and went through an extensive program of setting up exercises and close order. Platoon Leader Banks was awarded a silver medal. Each of the other members of the prize unit was presented with a badge. The judges were Captain Campbell C. Johnson, Inf. Reserve; Mr. Louis L.

MRS. SAVOY PLACED ON $1000 BOND IN VIRGINIA The charge of making threats against her husband, Dr. Walter S. Savoy, is still pending against Mrs. Valerie Turner Savoy. She is under $300 bond. A preliminary investigation by an assistant United States attorney resulted in his holding the case over because charges of perjury are pending against her in Arlington County, Virginia. Her threats against her husband, it is claimed, grew out of her resentment of his filing the perjury charges against her. He alleges that she committed perjury in swearing in her divorce proceedings that she was a resident of the State of Virginia and had been separated from him for a period of three years. The perjury charges will be tried in September Her bond in that case is $1,000. MESOCRIAL DAY AT SUBURBAN GARDENS The. Memorial Holiday was enjoyed by great throngs of citizens and visitors who gathered at the Monster Mid-Night Benefit Performance Gardens to welcome the uniformed ranks of Knight Templars of Delaware, Maryland and the District. After a parade in the city to the inspiring music of the splendid Commonwealth Band of Baltimore and the New Masonic Band of the District, the Knights entrained at 16th and H, N.E., in Special Cars of the Washington Railway and Electric Company and in due course were greeted with enthusiasm as with sprightly step, to the swing of martial music, they marched through the beautiful ornate entrance, and wheeled with soldierly step onto the Parade Ground of the Gardens. Dark and threatening clouds, which all morning had lowered threateningly now took a more cheerful aspect as though in sympathy with the joy and cheer of the occasion, so that the clock-like movements of the various teams made a gorgeous sun-lit spectacle when viewed from the mammoth pavilion an dother vantage points about the grounds. A word of welcome and congratulations was extended the visiting Knights as well as appreciation for the local Order, at the conclusion of the Drill by the President of the Universal Development and Loan Company. In this connection much credit is due Mr. W. A. Prater and member of the Board of Directors, who as booking-agent had charge of the arrangements in co-operation with Sir Knight Charles D. Freeman. A partial list of bookings for this season is reported by Mr. Prater as follows: Wednesday, June 15—Morning Star Lodge I. B. P. O. E. of the World. Friday, July 1—Marching Club, Columbia Lodge, I. B. P. O. E. of the World. Wednesday, July 20—Charles Datcher Lodge A. F. & A. M. Wednesday, August 3—Shriners' Parade and Dance. Friday, August 5—Morning Star Lodge, I. B. P. O. E. of the World.

Miss Genevieve Lomax, a senior at Howard, was May Queen. The festival was in the center of the bowl at the stadium. It was a pretty scene to view the queen, surrounded by a court of girls attired in beautiful costumes of various colors, watching the twelve numbers on the program. The May day processional, led by Miss Lomax, was followed by a Spring dance. Then came the free hand drill, and afterward a Chinese dance, San Toy. The fifth number was a swan dance which featured Misses Lillian Williams, Evelyn T. Jackson, and Alice Efiehm. After the Goliwik dance, Miss Evelyn T. Jackson did a very unique Spanish dance, for which she was much applauded. A ward drill followed her dance, and then Miss Ellen Hill showed the spectators how the huntress dance should be done. She made an excellent Diana. The Indian club drill and the exceptional pyramid building was followed by the military drill, which was commanded by the W. E. L. Sanford, Mgr. stately Miss Susie Tate. Every number on the program was a spell-binder to the attendants. After the completion of the numbers, Miss Lomax, the queen, was crowned, and the court processional moved closer to the audience to afford a better view. The music for the dances and exercises was furnished by Clarence Pendleton, a student at Howard, and by the University band, led by Sergeant John Brice. The exercises were dedicated to the seniors.

Beginning this week and continuing until the end of the month, we shall hear of little else than commencement. It would be instructive to know how many young men and women of the Negro race in the United States will have completed various courses of study, and received certificates and diplomas. Beginning with high schools, which, as the term is used here, includes industrial schools, and going through normal schools, colleges, universities and professional schools, it probably will not be far out of the way to say that this year will yield more graduates than any previous year in the history of the race. It is a common place saying that "knowledge is power"; and so it is. Illiteracy is always and everywhere the symbol of weakness, disorder and inefficiency. There is another principle as to knowledge that is not so often mentioned, but which is none the less true, and that is that knowledge imposes responsibility. The knowing person is in a certain sense his neighbor's keeper. There attaches to him a duty to the public in general. That is why commencement seasons are welcomed with such rejoicing and jubilation; people are happy that new forces for good and for social progress are liberated in the community, in the state. What are the new graduates going to do? Well—they will do what their hands find to do. The man or woman of real talent will, like Napoleon, find a way or make one. There was a time, and that not so long ago, when places were waiting for graduates. Things have in a large measure changed, and the graduate has in most cases to meet the keenest sort of competition. A generation ago every colored man or woman who graduated from college, or high school expected to qualify either as teacher, minister, physician or lawyer. A business career was not then thought of for colored graduates. The change in that respect has not been as marked as it might be, when it is taken into consideration that there are probably eleven million colored people in the United States who are set apart and isolated and segregated in various ways as a peculiar people. And further, when it is considered how relatively few of these millions are patronizing their own people in business, it does not take much argument to prove that here is a field for the new graduate to cultivate which will occupy his best efforts. When the Negro reaches that degree of efficiency where he can serve all the wants of his own people, there can be no doubt that the world will view him in a different light. To the new graduates The Tribune offers its congratulations, and welcomes them to the arduous and strenuous life. THE SUPREME COURT AND FREEDOM OF SPEECH Citizens of the United States interested in preserving the constitutional guaranty of "the freedom of speech, or of the press" contained in the First Amendment to Constitution, can not fail to be deeply concerned as to the effect that the recent decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in the case of Anita Whitney, will have. In this case, the constitutionality of the California anti-syndicate law was called in question. The court in upholding the right of the State of California to enact legislation which put a limitation on the freedom to speak as to specified modes of political action, said: It "is not an open to question ... that a State in the exercise of its police power may punish those who abuse this freedom by utterances inimical to the public welfare, tending to incite to crime, disturb the public peace, or endanger the foundations of organized government, and threaten its overthrow by unlawful means." Recently in Kentucky two Negro editors were indicted for printing matter criticizing certain court trials of Negroes for alleged rape. It is the easiest matter in the world to construe almost any public utterance criticizing existing laws and usages as being "inimical to the public welfare," or as "disturbing the public peace." Wha Washington Tribune Washington Tribune Published Weekly at Washington, D.C., by THE WASHINGTON PUBLISHING COMPANY, 1958. 920 U Street, N.W., Phone, Potomac 1667 Entered as second-class matter July. 7, 1922, at the Post Office at Washington, D.C., under the Subscription Act of March 8, 1879 Subscription Rate One dollar for Six Months, $1.25.

Jim-crow car laws and certain other forms of discrimination and segregation have been upheld by the Supreme Court on the ground that the States were acting in the exercise of the "police power," in passing such legislation. In view of this fact, Negroes along with all liberal elements may "view with alarm" this recent utterance of the Supreme Court. THE A.M.A. AND THE N.M.A. The local daily press devoted a conspicuously large portion of its space to reports of the proceedings of, and to papers and addresses read and delivered before, the American Medical Association which met in this city last week. The space given to those matters was in keeping with the importance of the subjects treated. They undoubtedly did much to spread among the people many useful bits of information relating to health and hygiene which may result in a lower death rate, in less sickness and in a general increase of health and physical well being in the community. The kind of publicity that is given the meetings of the National Medical Association creates the impression that its sessions are principally concerned with social functions, excursions, picnics, banquets and dances. Within very narrow limits, of course, it is known that many papers of real worth are read at its annual meetings, and that the association is doing a service of the highest order for the race and the advancement of medical science. However, the kind of publicity the association receives does much to obscure and to misrepresent its real work. In this connection, would it not be well, if the National Medical Association could see its way clear to change the time of its annual meeting to a season when everybody is not taking vacation and looking for recreation and a good time? Would it not be well also to so order things that the general public might be informed through the press of more of the substantial things the association is doing? We have no complaint to register against the social side of these meetings, but in the utmost good faith, it is suggested that the social activities at these meetings are emphasized beyond their importance. The Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, Hiram W. Evans, in his Memorial Day speech at Lynchburg, Virginia, laid down "white supremacy" as the principal article in the constitution of the "invisible empire." He showed signs of weakening in his proscription of Catholics. He even mentioned "religious tolerance." Let colored men who are disposed to overlook the strong Ku Klux strain in the composition of the Republican party take notice. Hurrah for Coffeyville, Kansas! It has the courage and the decency to inform the world that the recent mob demonstration against Negroes in that town, because of alleged rape was without foundation. There was no rape, or attempted rape by a Negro, or anybody else. There were some illicit relations among white people which it was sought to cover up by charging an infamous crime to Negroes. Kansas has, in this case, shown herself worthy of her history and traditions. John Brown's soul is still "marching on." Again, Hurrah for Coffeyville, Kansas! THE RIP SAW From Memphis On the other hand a recent release sent out by the Associated Negro Press from Memphis has the following: REFUSE TO LET NEGROES LEAVE FLOOD DISTRICTS MEMPHIS, Tenn., May 13th—Negroes in this state along the river and in the flood districts of Mississippi and Arkansas are being forced to work at the point of guns. A typical illustration is related by Dr. M. C. Bousfield and Earl A. Dickerson, officers of the Liberty Life Insurance Company, of Chicago, who returning from Little Rock to Memphis last Saturday, got off their train when it was delayed for an hour at a town in Arkansas and walked around. At the station were a crowd of them in overalls, many of them waiting for trains to take them to various points. Three white men mounted on horses rode up. They went to various Negroes. "What are you doing here?" they would ask. "I am going to Memphis," or some other point, the man would reply. "Get on up the road. We need you up there," would be the gruff response and the blacks with no idea of where they were going except that they were to be put to work at these white men's direction would be forced to shuffle on up the road. COMMENCEMENT BEGINNING AT WILBERFORCE, SUN. The commencement exercises at Wilberforce University will begin Sunday, June 12, on which day the baccalaureate sermon will be preached by Bishop W. A. Fountain, A.M., D.D., of Atlanta, Ga. On Monday, the annual address to the Literary Societies will be made by Rev. H. E. Stewart, D.D. of Chicago. The annual meeting of the Trustee Board will be held Since Dr. Bousfield and Mr. Dickerson are men of high character and reliability, their narration coupled with the virtual silence of the Negro press in the flood sections, makes it easy to imagine how things are going. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR LETTERS TO THE EDITOR SAYS EIGHT QUESTIONS ARE UNNECESSARY. I take great pleasure in congratulating Mrs. Swanton for her plain and common-sense statement regarding married women as teachers in the public schools. In my opinion, her statement answers every question suggested by Dr. Frank W. Ballou. If young women after having been educated and trained for teachers have to resort to menial labor on account of married women filling those places which properly belong to the single women, I say the Normal School should be abolished and, an industrial institution established instead. In my opinion eight of the questions suggested by Dr. Ballou are unnecessary. The first question answered should settle the whole matter. Should married women teach in the public schools? If not, then the other eight conditions would never occur. Yours for simple justice for the young single girls. Elks National Oratorical Contest Under the auspices of the I. B. P. O. E. W.

No matter though how studios one is, one is apt to appreciate rest after the toiling is over. To study is to work—hence when work time is over one wants a bit of fun. And here approaches vacation time, with days of sunshine and pleasant showers; open fields through which we roam; quiet streams sparkling in the sunlight, smiling in the moonlight, and dancing under the stars. Vacation time is trip time—trips to country, to sea-shore, to mountain. All fun and happiness and laughter. Even one's daily tasks about the home seen lighter in vacation time. All hail vacation time! After the summer has flown, and rest time is over, let every boy and girl take to his or her task of studying with the same anticipation as is so evident now at the approach of vacation time. I had a holiday Monday, that is why I was unfortunate enough not to meet the Tribunites who came to the office to see me that day. On Tuesday I was told that a little fellow came to the office Monday and said to a gentleman who was there at the time: "I want to see my buddy." "Who is your buddy?" he was asked. "Mr. Frazier," he answered, Upon being told that I was having a holiday and that I would be at the office Tuesday, the lad said that he would come back Tuesday, He did not return, neither did he leave his name. I would like to see my little buddy. Now how many of you boys and girls are my buddies? I would like for you to fill in the lines here and send them to me.

Being engaged to Douglass before his escape, she followed him to New York, where they were married. At the age of ten he was sent to Baltimore to Mrs. Sophia Auld, as a house servant. LONG DISTANCE MOVERS CRATE AND BACK BY EXPERTS 1313 YOU STREET, N.W. PHONE NORTH 3343 FREDERICK DOUGLASS Last week I promised to publish some of the letters written about Frederick Douglass. Here are the best ones that came in too late for publication last week. Two theatre tickets are awarded to the writers of the stories appearing below. 1611 12th St., N.W. Frederick Douglass was a slave. His 'real birthdate and birthplace is not known. Some people claim that his birthdate is February 14. Douglass when a lad of fourteen purchased his freedom. After wandering around for a while he was able to get a little money to buy a small piece of land on which he built a small shack. At the age of nineteen he began making addresses against slavery. He was one of the first Negro politicians. I think he was a very brave man and I think the Negro race should be proud to have such a man as a member of our race. FRANK ARMSTEAD 1918 8th St., N.W. The picture last week was that of Frederick Douglass. He was a statesman. He helped to set many slaves free. A white woman in London gave him money. He ran away from his master and brought his liberty. LOUISE CHAVIS (9) 714 Rhode Island Ave., N.W. The picture last week was of Frederick Douglass. He was a slave. Later he became a statesman. Frederick Douglass was born in Maryland. Frederick ran away from home. A white woman gave him money. He brought his freedom. He helped to set other slaves free. ELIZABETH TOLLIVER (9) 58th and Field Pl., N.E. The picture last week was of Frederick Douglass, an American orator, born in 1817 in Maryland. He escaped when a young man, and in 1841 began to deliver lectures against slavery which attracted much attention. In England, he made a very successful lecturing tour in 1845. When he returned to America, he became a newspaper editor. From 1876 to 1881 he was United States marshal for the District of Columbia. He died in 1895. MARGARET JACKSON. 1125 Sumner Rd., S.E. The picture in last week's Kidies' Corner was of Frederick Douglass. Douglass was born in Maryland in 1817. In 1838 he ran away from his master to New Bedford, Mass., and began to make public speeches against slavery for he was a great abolitionist. In 1845 he published a whole account of his life and later in the year he sailed to England where he lectured to large audiences. Later on he proved to Anacostia, D.C. His house was on a hall and there was such an abundance of cedar trees there that he called it "Cedar Hill." On February 20, 1895, he died at the above place. I think Douglass was one of America's greatest men because he made so many speeches to try to soften the hearts of the slaveholders. CLYDE SETTLE (13) 2800 3rd St., S.E. This is the picture of Frederick Douglass, a noble statesman, one who rose up out of the shackles of slavery and one who gained honor and esteem from both white and colored people. He was born a slave. Later he held the office of recorder of deeds and other worthy positions. He married during the dark days of slavery and had several children. His first wife died and he married the second time. When he died he left behind him a career that every American Negro should try to follow. LUCILLE R. JORDAN (8) 1220 Ifnden St., N.E. The picture in the Kiddies' Corner last week was of Frederick Douglass, Frederick was a slave. He established the New National Era at Washington, D.C., in 1870. In 1872 he was chosen one of the presidential electors-at-large for the state of New York. During his early childhood he was beaten and starved, often fighting with the dogs for the ANTHANIEL DETT VACATION TIME AP- PROACHES ARE YOU MY BUDDY?
