BOARD DISMISSES PROF. MENARD THE CONGRESSIONAL LIBRARY. FIRST ST. SALE. Emory B. Smith Loses Alumni Job PRESIDENT JOHNSON CHEERED DURING ADDRESS BEFORE THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION MEETING PRESIDENT JOHNSON CHEERED DURING ADDRESS BEFORE THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION MEETING FIRST in Advertising and Circulation Vol. VII, No. 3 BOA Emor PRESIDENT JOHNS DURING ADDRE ALUMNI ASSO Reconciliation of Howard University alumni was completed through an address delivered by Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, university president, to the general alumni association in its annual meeting in the Andrew Rankin Memorial chapel Thursday evening. He outlined a program of co-operation on the part of the alumni with the school. In the course of his address, Dr. Johnson was not only applauded but was at one time wildly cheered. This is in direct contrast with previous recent meetings of the association, at which the predecessor of Dr. Johnson was abused for his administration of university affairs and attitude toward the alumni. Dr. Johnson advised the alumni that their second objective had been accomplished. The first was the resignation of Dr. J. Stanley Durkee as president of the university. The second was the discontinuance of the office of alumni secretary. The trustees abolished this office at their meeting Tuesday. "In the matter of organization," said Dr. Johnson, "your hands are entirely untied. It is tonight as if we had just begun. There is no alumni office after June 30. There is no alumni secretary. There is no alumni magazine. The field is open for your constructive genius. Only one thing I beg of you, to see it that it is constructive genius." To Carry On The office of alumni secretary and editor of the alumni magazine has been filled by Emory B. Smith. He has been under fire by the alumni ever since the creation of the office by Dr. Durkee. Dr. Johnson pleaded with the alumni to aid in the constructive upbuilding of Howard University. He told them to "put your shoulders to the wheel and show by your persistent cross bearing that you propose to take your share of the responsibility of carrying Howard university on." "The university," he stated, "yet needs the solicitous affection of an organized alumni, who are doing all in their power to see to it that none but the best shall endure within the university walls and that none but the best shall go out with the stamp of the university's approval upon them."

Walker Manufacturing Company, of Indianapolis, Indiana, has broken ground for the new office and manufacturing plant of the concern. It will be completed sometime late in the year. The completed building is to be four stories in height, with basement of reinforced concrete, steel, hydraulic press brick, terra cotta, trimmed, enclosing five separate projects: a complete theatre, a group of store rooms, factory space, office space, and an auditorium. The cost will approach a million dollars, it is claimed. Each project is to be completed in itself, of the best materials, strictly fireproof, and a unit of the entire structure which will have many extraordinary features. The theatre will contain a main auditorium and balcony, will seat 15,000 people, and will be equipped with a pipe organ costing $15,000. Rest rooms, smoking rooms, etc. will be features of comfort. The building will provide several thousand feet of much needed office and factory space for the Walker Company, and will house the finest, most modern machinery for manufacturing the Madam C. J. Walker preparations. ```markdown ``` Washington Tribune PUBLISHED WEEKLY RD D y B.

Mr. Bennett came to Howard after taking his preparatory work at Payn. University, Selma, Ala., where he also won honors for his scholarship. He has been employed by The Tribune for over a year, having charge of several collection routes and a news stand route. Modes and of a self-sacrificing nature, Mr. Bennett has demonstrated that he possess those qualities that go to make up a successful career.

Seventeen student nurses received diplomas. Music was furnished by the United Stat's Marine Band orchestra. It rendered an overture, "The Vagabond Kind" (Friml); two marches, "On the Mall" (Goldman) and "My Own United States" (Edwards), and selections from "Countess Mauritza" (Kalmann). The address to the graduating class was delivered by the Rev. H. B. Taylor, pastor of the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church. Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president of Howard University, presented the diplomas. Invocation and benediction were said by the Rev. D. E. Wiseman, pastor of the Church of Our Redeemer. The first nurse to receive a diploma was Miss Florence Tyler, of Pittsburgh, Pa., whom Mrs. May Irwin, superintendent of nurses, and Dr. William A. Warfield, surgeon-in-chief, of Freedmen's Hospital, had said could not graduate. The nurse's alumni association appealed to Dr. Hubert Work, Secretary of the Interior, and he referred the charges brought by Miss Irwin and approved by Dr. Warfield to Edward C. Finney, assistant Secretary of the Interior. After reviewing the charges Judge Finney directed that Miss Tyler should be permitted to graduate. Other nurses receiving diplomas were Edloe Brown, Baltimore, Md., Yvette Caldwell, Detroit, Mich.; Geraldine Carson, Springboro, Pa.; Alice Garner, Montclair, N. J.; Henri Harley, Binghamton, N. Y.; Viola Haiten, Newport News, Va.; Dolly Hendricks, Cleveland, O.; Betty Jenkins, Talladega, Ala.; Claretta Joyce, Cambridge, O.; Margaret Lipscomb, Opelika, Ala.; Adelene Mitchell, St. Vincent, B.

FRIDAY, JUNE 10, 1927 S. JULIUS BENNETT Kelly Miller, Jr., popularly known as "Dr. Kelly," son of Professor Kelly Miller of Howard University and a staff writer of The Washington Tribune, graduated from the Medical Department of Howard University this week. Mr. Miller graduated in the honor group of his class. DR. KELLY MILLER, JR. The M.D. degree conferred on Mr. Miller this week, is the second degree he has received from Howard. He received his B. S. from the institution, after which he received his M. A. from Clark University, Worcester, Mass. For one year after his graduation he assisted in physics at Clark. He was later engaged by several laboratories in Pittsburgh, Pa., Worcester, Mass., and New York City. While a student at Howard, young Miller founded the Howard Medical News, the only undergraduate medical paper in the country. Up to the time of his graduation he was editor and business manager of this paper which boasts of a circulation of over 3,000 average. This paper has been most favorably commented upon by leading physicians, medical societies and libraries. Dr. Miller for the past two years has been a staff correspondent of The Tribune and has contributed a column of medical news regularly. He also contributed news articles for other papers at various times. He was also very active in the Medical Endowment drive, collecting over $3,000 through his efforts. He was a member of the Kappa P. Medical Scholarship Society. This week* Dr. Miller was elected an interne to Freedmen's Hospital of this city. After his year's intern work at this hospital, he plans to practice his profession in New York City. HAMPTON GRADUATES 16 COLLEGE STUDENTS Hampton.

OFFICE: 920 U STREET, N.W. "SORRY WORLD," EDDY DECLARES IN H. U. SERMON "SORRY WORLD," EDDY DECLARES IN H. U. SERMON By Louis R. Lautier. Sherwood Eddy, secretary for Asia of the Young Men's Christian Association, commended the religion of Jesus Christ to the graduating students of Howard University as the great moral force that will conquer the world in delivering the baccalaureate sermon to them Sunday afternoon. He described the world into which the students were about to enter as "a sorry world, a world of strife; strife between classes in industry, rich and poor, capital and labor, employer and employed; strife between races; strife between nations breaking out periodically into overt war. It is a world of strife and war based upon this philosophy of might makes right. It is a world of imperialism where the strong have gone out to exploit and profit out of the weak." He related the conquests of the imperialism of Holland, Belgium and Great Britain. But the economic and financial imperialism of America, he declared, is the most dreaded in the world today. The United States, he said, has transgressed in many ways. "I blush to say," he stated, "that as I have traveled over the world for the last 30 years, as my work has taken me through India, China, Asia, through Russia, Europe and other countries. I find the people of this country suffering more from the disease—yes, it seems no less than a disease—from the disease of race prejudice than any people on earth." Race prejudice, he said, is not found among the people of Russia or the Slavic people. It is not found in France, South America, and China. The chief people suffering from this disease, he declared, are first, the white race of America; second, the people of Britain; third, the people of Germany, and fourth, the high caste people of India. Mr. Eddy asked of the graduating students what attitude are they going to take toward life. He said that there was one of four attitudes which they might take. The first, he stated, is the attitude of compacency, accepting the world as it is. The second, he said, is the attitude of cynicism and of despair (Continued on page 6) HOWARD SUMMER TERM BEGINS JUNE 22 HOWARD SUMMER TERM BEGINS JUNE 22 The Summer Session of Howard University begins June 22 and will extend over a period of eight weeks. According to the catalogue, in this fifth session of the summer work, a very definite attempt will be made to extend the recreational and social features of student life which are generally recognized as an indispensable asset to a successful summer school.

A tennis tournament, in which silver cups will be awarded to the successful contestants, will be held at least one week before the end of the session. Arrangements will be made for trips to many of the places of scientific and historical interest in the vicinity of Washington, including Mt. Vernon, and Cedar Hill, the home of Frederick Douglass. Near the close of the season, a grand informal reception will be held in the new dining hall. The following subjects will be offered during the term: architecture, art, botany, chemistry, economics, education, English, French, German, history, Latin, mathematics, music, physics, political science, psychology, romance languages, and sociology. --- --- MEN SCHOOL BOAR TEACHER TRIAL, SCHOOL BOARD FINDS TEACHER GUILTY AT TRIAL, WEDNESDAY W. J. CARTER IS ELECTED AS NEW ALUMNI TRUSTEE The board of trustees of Howard University in its annual commencement meeting held in the board room of the university library Tuesday elected two new members and reelected seven trustees whose terms were expiring. Alumni Trustee Elected. Alumni Trustee Elected. William: Justin Carter, lawyer, of Harrisburg, Pa., was elected as an alumni member. He was one of the three nonninees selected by the general alumni association. His term will expire in 1930. His election gives the alumni three trustees, the other two being Dr. C. Summer Wormley and Dr. Sara W. Brown. Mr. Carter graduated from the college department of Howard University in 1890 and from the law school in 1892. For two years after graduation from the law school he taught in the public schools of Annapolis, Md. He began the practice of law in Harrisburg in July, 1894. He was president of the Howard University general alumni association from June, 1923, to June, 1925. Dr Walter Gray Crump, a surgeon, of New York City, was elected to another vacancy. His term will expire in 1928. The trustees whose terms were expiring were reelected. They are George W. Crawford, New Haven, Conn.; Rolfe Cobleigh, Boston, Mass.; John R. Hawkins, Justice Stanton J. Pelle, Rev. Ulysses G. B. Pierce, of Washington; Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, New York City, and General John H. Sherburne, Boston, Mass. To Have Dept. of Commerce. The board of trustees decided to establish a department of commerce and finance under the college of liberal arts with George William Cook as the head. It will take the place of the school of commerce and finance which was abolished as a result of the survey of the university by R. J. Leonard of Columba University in 1925. Reinstatement Question Discussed. The action of the board on the petition of the alumni for the restatement of Alaine LeRoy Locke, former professor of philosophy; Alonzo H. Brown, former professor of mathematics; Metz T. P. Lochard, former assistant professor of French, and Orlando C. Thornton, former instructor in finance, was not made public. Dr. Mordecial W. Johnson, university president, will convey the action of the board directly to the alumni association before its being made public. (Continued on page 5) MRS. BETHUNE SAILS SATURDAY FOR EUROPE MRS.

IN WASHINGTON nearly everybody reads the TRIBUNE ARD RD FINDS GUILTY AT WEDNESDAY Willis M. Menard, a teacher of history in the Dunbar High School, 2003 Thirteenth street northwest was dismissed from the public schools of the District of Columbia by the Board of Education last Wednesday afternoon. His dismissal was effective on and after June 8. Harry O. Hine, secretary of the board, was instructed to notify Menard immediately of his dismissal and to inform Walter L. Smith, principal of the Dunbar High School, of the action of the board. Menard was found guilty on a charge of having committed an offense against morality and good order in violation of the rules of the Board of Education. After a public trial, the members of the school board, retired, and handed their verdict in The trial lasted two. The basement geegee was that Menard in his 1612 Thirteenth street northwest, while she was a student at Dunbar High School to meet him, took her to a house and assaulted her. The story of the alleged attack was told to the board by Miss Coleman. Sobbingly under questioning by board members she related the most intimate details of the occurrence. An engagement was made one day in school, she testified under oath, and on a Sunday afternoon in February, 1925, she met Menard in a park near her home at Seventeenth and S streets northwest. They walked some distance. Menard asked her if she would not go into a house and wait while he talked with a friend, she said. She consented. They went into a house. The alleged attack, she stated, was made in a room in the house in which she and Menard were alone. She struggled with him, she said, and made an outcry but not sufficiently loud to be heard because Menard warned her that she would be equally disgraced if found in a room with him. He finally forced her down, she testified. At the time she was 19 years old. (Continued on page 5) Boy Killed By Auto The life of little William Mayo, age 12, was suddenly snuffed out yesterday morning when a Cadillac touring car operated by Joe "Hippy" Edwards struck him at Sixth and O streets, northwest. The youngster, who lives at 1446 Q street, northwest, was with his mother, Mrs. Bettie Mayo, visiting the home of Miss Catherine Thompson, a friend residing at 1416 Sixth street. He was in the street playing on a "skate-truck" when the automobile approached him from the rear and the driver sounded his horn. The boy, according to Edwards's story, apparently became excited and ran directly into the path of car. The driver in his attempt to avoid striking the youngster swerped his car to the opposite side of the street. The effort was futile. After knocking the lad down the Cadillac crashed into a tree. But slight damage was done the car. The boy was rushed to Homeopathic Hospital, by Edwards, but before his mother arrived he was pronounced dead. Joe Edwards, generally called "Hippy" is well known about town. He resides at 2247 Cleveland avenue, northwest. ELKS TO HEAR ANNUAL SERMON Columbia Lodge No. 85 will hold its annual sermon on Sunday, June 12, at 8 o'clock, at Gael Metropolitan C. M. E. Church, corner of First and B streets southwest. Herbert E. Jones, exalted ruler of the lodge, and Mrs. Marie Madre Marshall, daughter ruler of Columbia Temple No. 422, will make remarks. Rev. J. E. Toomier, pastor of Grael Metropolitan, will preach. TEN Liberal Progressive Independent THE CONSTITUTION AND MR. McADOO In his commencement address at Tusculum College in Tennessee, William Gibbs McAdoo, former Secretary of the Treasury, and who had the support of the Ku Kluk Klan for the presidential nomination at the Democratic National Convention of 1924, and who has the support of the same element for the nomination next year, shows great concern lest failure to enforce the Eighteenth Amendment will undermine the foundation of American institutions. He was as dumb as an oyster as to flagrant violation of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. Mr. McAdoo should, in his next public address dealing with constitutional questions, explain how the disregard of one amendment will undermine our institutions, although the disregard of two others calls for no expression of concern from him. The Constitution is to be obeyed as a whole. It should be enforced in all its parts. All of its provisions are equally binding on all citizens, sections and States. It would be worth a great deal to the cause of real law enforcement if gentlemen of Mr. McAdoo's character and influence would denounce specifically and by name all disregard of constitutional requirements. It would probably offend the Ku Klux Klan, but it would greatly advance the cause of democratic institutions and popular rights. TAXATION AND THE CITIZENS ADVISORY COUNCIL ADVISORY COUNCIL The people of the District of Columbia are having the question of taxation called to their attention in a very concrete way. The question is something like this: For the fiscal year beginning July 1,1928, it is proposed to spend for all purposes about $45,000,000, one-third of this sum being for schools. The present rate of taxation on real estate property is $1.80 per hundred, and the assessed value of such property is around one billion dollars. Of course there are other sources of taxation than real property. It was announced in the daily press some days ago that the assessed value of real property in the District had been increased about 25 per cent. In view of this increased assessment, it was suggested that the rate of taxation might be reduced by a corresponding figure, that is to say, instead of $1.80 per hundred, the rate might be $1.35. By this arrangement, the tax-payer would have no larger burden for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1928, than he now has. The other proposition was an increased assessment without increase of taxation. At this juncture, the Citizens Advisory Council comes into the picture and proposes that the rate of taxation remain $1.80 per hundred as at present. In view of the increased assessment, this means a boost of 25per cent in taxes over the present year. To illustrate, a man owns a house and land assessed at $3200. Under the increase in assessment, it will be assessed at $4000. His tax is now $57.60; under the proposition to reduce the rate to $1.35 per hundred, it would be $54. Under the Citizens Advisory Council's proposition it would be $72. We are calling the attention of all our readers to this matter, whether they be property owners or renters, because it affects the living conditions of every one of them, and because we do not believe that the recommendation of the Citizens Advisory Council is representative of popular sentiment, in the same sense that we do not believe that the Council itself is representative. The Citizens Advisory Council was not created by an Act of Congress. Its sole claim to existence is an order of the Board of Commissioners of the District of Columbia, an order, to say the least, that is of doubtful legality, and of more doubtful practical utility. The persons composing this Council, respectable though they be, are not representative of the public opinion of any considerable body of our people. This question of taxation serves the useful purpose of calling the attention of our people to the unrepresentative attitude of the Citizens Advisory Council, as well as Washington Tribune Washington Tribune Published Weekly at Washington, D.C., by THE WASHINGTON POST PUBLISHING COMPANY 920 U Street, N.W., Phone, Pokomane 1667 Entered as second-class matter July 7, 1922, at the Post Office at Washington, D.C., under the Act of March 8, 1879 Subscription Rate: One Year, $2.56; Six Months, $1.25; Delivered by carrier 5 cents per week, collected monthly.

It is high time that the tax-payers get together, and take counsel as to this insidious proposition to in- crease taxes. THE RIP SAW THE RIP SAW Modern Education Scene. The Registrar's office of one of our big educational institutions. Time. Four days before Commencement. A mother and father come in and inquire as to why their son's name has not been certified for graduation from the College of Liberal Arts. After looking the records over, they are informed by the clerk that their son has one-half unit of physical education to make up before he can graduate. For three years and two quarters he has passed in this subject and every other subject, and through March and part of April of the third quarter he reported regularly at the gym. But, for some reason he stopped coming out for the baseball practice, during the last four weeks, so when the certified list of names was sent in for graduation, his name was left off. The broken hearted mother and father plead. For four years they have sacrificed that their son might have the advantages of a college education. The son has studied hard so he might pass in his subjects, but, in the home stretch, he overlooked one subject—"physical education." This subject is a newcomer in the curriculum of the modern school. Just why it has been made a major subject nobody seems to know, but it is there nevertheless, and must not be treated lightly by the future would-be A.B.'s, and M.A.'s. This unfortunate candidate for graduation just overlooked the wrong subject—English, chemistry, or anything else, but not physical education. An hour a day, for the final four weeks, at ping pong, jacks, running or any of the other similar attractive sports offered by the department of physical education, by this young man, would have saved his parents these hours of anguish and grief. But "modern education" must be served and the cornerstone of this pagan temple is play. It is an extension and elaboration of the old maxim that "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." Play has been substituted in the modern school for study. A student is not permitted to devote too much of his time to serious thought and study. He must be kept busy on the athletic field, the drill grounds or any place except the class room. The three R's are becoming as foreign to the present-day schools and colleges as Chinese philosophy to a peonage farm hand. The wise student is one who joins all the fraternities and amasses a gang of letters and medals for his prowess in the various sports. The future presents at graduation time will be golf togs, swimming suits and boxing gloves instead of the present list of books and works of art. The wise mother of the future will not teach her children the alphabet but will duly instruct them in the art of making the first nine holes in par or running the 100 in 10 flat. Modern education must be served Babbitry sweeps the nation. "Physical Education" In order that no one be deceived into thinking that "physical education" is intended to furnish healthful exercises or muscular development it may be noted that playing the drum or even a flute—in the R.O.T.C. band—counts as a full unit in "physical education." Presumably, however, running an elevator—for support—outside of school hours, or firing a furnace as a janitor, would not count. Well—such useful work might be physically beneficial but would not be regarded as "education"—as of course it is not. But is baseball practice any more so? CIVIL SERVICE EXAMINATIONS FOR TUSKEGEE TIONS FOR TUSKEGEE The United States Civil Service Commission has announced that competitive examinations for technicians in bacteriology and roentgenology for the Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee, Ala., will be held in the near future. An- THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, JUNE 10, 1927 plications will be rated as received until June 20. Applications may be filed with the secretary, Fifth U. S. Civil Service District, Post Office Building, Atlanta, Ga., from which place application blanks may also be obtained. Any additional information conferring these examinations will be furnished by the District secretary's office in Atlanta. THREE MUSICIANS IN PROGRAMS Joseph H. Douglass, violinist, is booked to play for the Summer School at Tuskegee Institute, Ala., the State School at Montgomery, the Schools at Birmingham, Selma, and Mobile, Alabama. Also he is to appear in lyceum work for the Summer School in North Carolina. Harry Gill Sill gave his senior piano recital Monday, May 23, at Rankin Memorial Chapel, Howard University. Clyde Leroy Glass appeared in a pianoforte recital 'at Williamsport, Pa., a few weeks since with success. COLERIDGE TAYLOR MEMORIAL MUSICAL In honor of the memory of S. Coleridge Taylor, English composer, a program by the music department of Dunbar High School, featuring his life and works, was presented students Wednesday morning of last week.

From time to time there have been sent in some very good jokes by the Tribunites. Here are a few of them, for you to smile over. Where Babes are Marksmen A keen eyed mountaineer led his overgrown son into a country schoolhouse. "This here boy's arter learning,'" he announced. "What's yer bill o' fare?" "We teach arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry—" "No triggernometry," interrupted the old man, "he's already the best shot in the mountains." A Tragedy in One Act "Queen, isn't it?" "What?" "Why, the night falls—" "Yes." "But it doesn't break." "No." "And the day breaks—" "Yes." "But it doesn't fall." Girl: "No one understands me." Bert: "No wonder, my mother was a telephone operator and your father a train announcer." Practical Demonstration Gym teacher: "You act as though you never saw a dumbell in action. Now watch me." Previous "Did Jack pass his exams, Mrs. Nims?" "No. Why the teachers asked him questions about things that happened before he was born." Oulette: "I see where a fellow got killed in a feud." got killed in a feud." Coulter: "I never heard of that kind of a car before." Fellow Players Son: "What is a taxidermist?" Father: "He skins animals." Son: "Well, what is a taxi-driver?" Father: "He skins humans." Teacher: "Robert, give me a sentence using the word 'satiate.'" Bobby: "I took Mamie Jones to a picnic last summer and I'll satiate quite a lot." Teacher: "What's your name?" Scholar: "Ivan Auszeichmmu- gencugeki." Teacher: "How do you spell it?" Scholar: "As it is pronounced." In looking over the files of the Tribune, in the kiddies' department I came across the following letter: "Dear Editor: I have a doll and I'd like to make her a member of the Doll's Club. She has many pretty dresses a ring and bracelet, a trunk and a chair. But please if you can write me where I could get a colored doll and how much one would cost. I'd like to have one with hair and sleeping eyes. I am for my colored race. I want to join the T.P.C.C. and I will do whatever is assigned for me to do. My doll's name is Deilah." "I also have a pet. His name is Teddy R. He is a kind dog. I enter him as a member to the Pet's Club. I am 12 years old in the 6-B Grade, Bell School. Miss Adams is my teacher and my mother's name is Mrs. Lucille Carter. Good-bye from Teddy R. and your TRIBUNITE." I would like for the kiddies to write a letter or a story to the Kiddies' Corner. Does I love my little precious?— Does I?—Bet your life I does! She's the dandest and the grandest Little gal there ever wuz. Yes, her hair is sorter kinky, Lips are thick, and nose is flat But she has a smile magnolos— Can you figger out what's that? Does I love my little angel With her lafter light and merry? Does I?—Bet your life I does Love my little coal black cherry. I will ever always love her Not 'cause she's tiny and so wee— I love her 'cause I knows I love her, And 'cause I knows that she loves me. —C. LESLIE FRAZIER SAVE MONEY ON STORAGE.

The picture last week was of Nathaniel Dett. He was director of music at the Hampton Institute. He has become widely known as a composer and choral conductor. He is a graduate of the Oberlin Conservatory of Music and received from there the degree of Bachelor of Music for work in original composition. Among his most important compositions are, "Magnolia 'suite,' "Hampton, My Home by the Sea," "Listen to the Lambs," "O, Holy Lord," and "Music of the Mine." He became successful in his efforts and he wanted others to enjoy the results of his labors along musical lines, so we have Nathaniel Dett as a representative of the best we have in music, and we also have many of his wonderful and beautiful songs. MAURICE HILL (12) 619 C. St., S.E. Nathaniel Dett is a Negro musician and composer of note, born in Canada. He graduated from the Oberlin Conservatory of Music in 1908, and has taught at Lincoln Institute and Lane College. As a pianist and composer, he has won much recognition from leading critics at home and abroad. His "Listen to the Lambs" is the most popular of his compositions. He is at present director of music at Hampton Institute, having refused a similar offer from the Washington public schools. ELMER A. TAYLOR 1611 12th St., N.W. Nathaniel Dett is a musician and composer who has accomplished much in the world of music. He, next to Roland Hayes and Coleridge-Taylor, is the best Negro musician known. I think that his music is very refined and cultured. I love to hear his compositions and I think that we should be proud of him. Let each of the Tri- bunites try to be as great as he is. FRANK ARMSTEAD FIELD DAY AT DOUGLASS- TWINING SCHOOL TWINING SCHOOL Douglass-Twining School held its annual field day exercises on Tuesday, May 24, at the Walker Stadium. The pupils made a colorful and spectacular picture dressed in costumes, and carrying banners, as they escorted the May Queen from Douglas School to her throne in the stadium. The kindergarteners played "Round the Village," while pupils of the second grade made a beautiful picture in the "Shoemaker Dance." Those of the first grades, dressed in bright bonnets and streamers, gave an exhibition of "How-de-do, my partner." While third grade pupils were dancing boys of the fourth grade dressed in costume gave an exhibition of an Indian War Dance. Events followed each other in quick succession. Boys of the ungraded class attracted many spectators with a well played game of baseball. One noticeable feature of the day was a wand drill executed by the pupils of the fourth grade of Twining School. The fifth and sixth grade children participated in several events. Dressed in white and wearing Russian Cossack hats they executed carefully the steps of the Russian snow storm dance. The fifth and sixth grade girls later competed in a straddle ball basketball and relay races, which were won by the sixth grade girls.

The yeat before she had taught most satisfactorily in a colored school in Wilmington, Dela- Ware, although, with an eye to windward, taking the New York examinations. Fortunate indeed was she to secure so early an appointment. And she entered upon the new work with a zest, resolved to maintain ‘the tradition for efficiency established by previous teachers of her blood and tradition in the public s¢i00ls of the financial center of the world. Her eight years at preparatory school and college were spent un- der, the rigorous moral domination of ther Aunt Alice and the stern tradition. Living in that prim and prayerful household with Alice, the canary, the robins, and the dog rather than in the livély dormitories of the college, the girl withdrew herself trom her classmates and the social life of the institution as far as possible. Nay MeAlliser pursued the. op- posite course and was heartily welcomed everywhere and highly valued by her classmates. Tracy was a grind. Indeed, she learned to look askance upon’ the innocent feiyolities of the girls and to find refuge in study and in fasting and prayer with Aunt Alice. If Tracy attended a class dance, she did not dance, although her. hend wes sought because of her slender ebon beauty. For the callow young white men whom she me! She felt a certain repugnance—a Tepugnance due quite as much to sex as to race. Once she went to a classmate’s room to get a Greek grammar. Entering, she came upon three girls luxuriously smok- ing cigarettes with gold tips, to her amazement and horror, Her Aunt Alice and she went upon their knees in the little old fash- joned parlor afterward to suppli- eate Jehovah to save these. way- ward misses from a life of shame. When Tracy was graduated from college, the class historian, refer- red to her as the “only true Colo- nial maiden” in the group, despite her Ethiop ancestry! And with ther uncut hair, her dresses long enough to win Aunt Alice's Colo- nial inhibitions, she was indeed and in truth just that. Had her grand- father, Johnson, been living, he would’ have said, ‘New brooms sweep clean!’ But, to the despair of Aunt Alice, the girl's beauty was indomitable, admirably with- standing comparison with the Caucasian features of her class- ‘mates. . Tt was in this phase of Tracy's life that she had confronted her own mother in a strange man’s embrace! Never had mother and duaghter discussed or adveried to the horrible episode—until Tracy's momentous letter—but it had built up an estrangement between them, What more pitiless than youth? In the Imperial City of the West- ern World Tracy was set free ot ‘once from a servitude of which she had been unconscious. And with the prompt resiliency of her age, she re-acted against the mul- titudinous repressions of Aunt Al- ice, undergoing a rapid and start- Ting transformation. The instincts ‘of the girl's vigorous womanhood asserted thcmselves. The vast city with all its millions of peo- ple and their kaleidoscopic nctivi- ‘ties acted upon her sugeestable na- “tare as a stimulus—constant and ey found versal? soine to the thestre three or four times a week.

They searched TWO rants— whether Negro, Italian, French, Chinese, or Japanese, Ac- companied by two tall, spectacled young. men who had ‘come from Atlanta University to Columbia for graduate study, the girls dined and danced merrily and often. Now and again they attended a revue— Earl Carroll's, the Greenwich Vil- lage Follies, George White’s Scan- dals, or one in Harlem. More-of- ten than should be recorded “the bunch” went to some astounding | Negro cabaret in Harlem, with its jungle music, its jazz babies, its 'many colored glittering lights, ‘Two or three times a week Tracy found herself getting into bed at two or even three in the morning, ‘though, except at week-ends, she arose at seven-thirty. Was John Hull beginning to live again in his daughter? Tracy's dresses grew shorter and shorter as the nights flew. She learned to value a Melachrino and to tolerate the tang of Baceardi. One evening after the theatre, the two couples took supper near Times Square on the Dutch plan, so dear to all students, at a Chit nese restaurant where the chow meine is made in North China style, Daneing afterwards at ‘The Birdies, a Negto night club near 135th street on Seventh avenue, ‘Tracy was introduced by some happy chance to Henri McKee, Esq., a barrister who had just in- herited a fortune from his grand- father, an eccentrie personae of the colored community in Philadel- phia of that not particularly pic- turesque name whose sole require- ment was that his grandson as- sume it. Mr. McKee was at once drawn to Tracy. He daneed with her very cleverly, teaching her a step or so; asked if he might call; in- vietd her to the Metropolitan to see an exhibit of the work of a Spanish painter of unpronounee- able name. And she, finding him the most widely traveled, best in- formed, most witty, | gracious and companionable man she had ever met, became profoundly, not to say over-whelmingly interested jin him. It was the very first time in her life that the masculine had made appeal to her inmost nature. With his iron gray hair and his almost military carriage, McKee wes a distinguished figure carved by some master hand ont ‘of finest ebony. When he called, ‘Tracy banished Mary and her spectacled boy friends lest they mar her joy. When McKee took her to the Met- ropolitan, she learned more about ‘painters and schools. of painters ‘than ever-she dreamed before, She ‘told Mary afterward, “Seems as if ‘there are as many schools of ‘painters as of fish!” Mr MeKee's interest in Tracey was such that the urged her to save her errnines and snend her summers in Eu- -Eopr—first. to get a bird's-eye view ‘of the Continent, and afterward to fri a rear a in eas tony. another at eee on North See, evother at Heidetberg. arsther *+ Montreux. al “But. 11) be married hotore thet. vou know,” the girl inter- polated, area ‘London he disliked as too, tod THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, JUNE 10, 1997 sordid; Paris as too complicated and shopworn; Vienna is too gay; but, Geneva invited his soul. One day the discerning Mary said to ‘Tracy as the Iatier was cessing to go to Charlot’s for a long table dnote dinner with Mr. McKee and afterward to the the- atre. “Colonial maiden, why don’t you bob that hair of yours? What's the use of looking old-timey when everybody else is chipper? Take it from ‘me, dear one, if I were Henty McKee, I'd never propose to a girl with a mane! Not in the: days, O Gawd! Clip it! ‘Tracy disdained to answer,’ but Mary was unflagging, “Another thing, what does a man want with a dead olive-tint of a girl? Of course, T know you've been labor- ing with those Caucasians morons of yours at school and are a bit frayed at the etiges; but, what's the matter with my rouge, old dear? It's Coty’s, you know.” ‘Tracy tried the rouge. But, it vok Mary's practised hand to put it on right and proper.” And ‘when Tracy greeted McKee, the brilliance of her beauty made him exclaim— ° But, say, aren't you feeling great tonight? Your checks are burning.” “No, they aren't, King Solo- mon,”'the girl tossed back. “The only thing about me that's burn- ing is—my heart!” McKee stood abashed. But, the very next day Tracy found a beauty parlor on Seventh avenue where she secured a wonderful boyish boh—and some other mod- ern conveniences. Looking at her- uelf in the glass criticaliy, she was delighted not to look any lon- ger like the Sixteenth Century. But, to her astonishment, McKee said afterward: “And you threw away your won- derful hair? What a perfect out- rage!” Still, she knew in her heart— or in her head—that she did look more dashing than ever before and she knew too that the slow-wit would find it out soon enough. However, she “got a kick,” as she confided ‘in Mary, out of his Ia- ment at the loss of her long black hair—“the rape of the locks,” he called it. So, she tied a lock of it with blue ribbon, put it in a deli- cately scented envelope, and slipped the same into his pocket. On the envelope was written in her medial slant: “To the only human being who laments its loss!” Mc- Kee thanked her laughingly and said he would treasure that lock in remembrance of the tragedy. Vewy well indeed Tracy realized how much more reserved McKee was than the voluble and irre- sponsible boy friends that Mary had. So did Mary. “It’s up to you. Dymb Dora. counselled Mary, lighting a fresh cigarette, as she set aside the proofs she had brought home to correct, “it's un to you. The poor fish is erazy about you, al! right but, he’s no Romeo. Still, T like him, kid: he’s a Prince Royal.” Fntirely aware that this fish she had hooked felt toward her as she toward him, Tracy had a large size Sarony taken of herself— bobbed hair, penciled eyebrows. and all. Oné evenine she showed it to him, saving archly, “Wouldn't yon like one?” “Of course, I should,” was the reply. i ‘And away with him that, even. ing he tok the photograph. The next morning she sent him a let- ter on Rosebud Bond: “My dear Henry—Why shouldn't T call you by your first name if 1 want to? Don’t you call me by mine? Anvhow, T want you- to Imow it delights me bevond all words to realize that my photo- graph is to be in your apartment alwavs, erecting you when vou a- rise in the morning and smiling at you when vou retire.

Some j days. later, McKee sent a telegrem uit te & Now York habit 04 talé- to another—to say that urgent business called him to Chicago but that he would be back in a week or two. She was—heartbroken. She called up his hotel but he had gone, leaving no Chicago address. If she could have written to him, she would have felt better; but she couldn't. It was assuredly his own fault, “It is as if” she said to Mary, solemnly lighting a Melachrino, “the fonder I am of Henry, the more hard boiled he is to me.” “0, his heart doesn’t pump ice woter, girlie. He just hasn't any imagination,” said Mary and_she youred out'a tiny glass of Bac- cardi for the disconsolate maiden. Do you supnose he really knows Now, that Maurice of mine. has too darned much imagination— sometimes.” “Pi be honest with you. Mary.

He would have them advise the university of problems in their several localities. He would have them to contribute to a retirement fund for professors who have spent their lives teaching at the university. He would have them make provision for investigation and interpretation of facts leading to a solution of social questions relating to race relations. "The most important single thing that can be done for Howard university," he declared, "is the complete, self-conscious organization of the alumni." Leadership Challenged Leadership Challenged He pointed out that at present Howard university occupies the most strategic place in the scheme of Negro education. "It is not going to hold that place," he said, "merely because it is in the capital and has a large student body." There is already competition in the field, he stated. Fisk, Hampton and other institutions, he said, are challenging the leadership of Howard. He pointed out that the school is losing this year one of its most competent professors, St. Elmo Brady, who is going to Fisk university as a research professor in chemistry at a salary of $4,500. Fisk sought to obtain the services of three other Howard university professors, he stated. Dr. Johnson reported to the alumni the success with which the campaign for a half million dollar endowment for the medical school is meeting. Local alumni under the leadership of 25 captains with Dr. Fairfax Brown as chairman had just reported at his office receipt of more than a thousand dollars. They had previously reported $1,185. Phelps-Stokes Fund He also reported a gift of $2,000 from the Phelps-Stokes fund as an expression of good-will. $100 from the Association of Internes of Freedmen's Hospital through Dr. E. Clayton Terry, and a check for $5,000 from Mrs. Anna E. Malone, the head of Poro College, St. Louis, Mo. Less than $17,000 is needed by July 1 to complete this fund. He urged the alumni to participate in the glory of closing the campaign. "The last few dollars that bring in this victory," he said, "ought to come from the pockets of the colored people at the solicitation of the alumni of our university." Dr. Johnson stated that 39 colored persons had given $1,000 each. Their names will be enrolled on a bronze tablet and placed in the rotunda of the new medical school building. Forty-nine doctors in Washington, he said, have raised over $15,000 for the endowment fund. Dr. Johnson was presented to the alumni by Dr. George Frazier Miller, president of the general alumni association. At the close of his speech he was given the Howard clap, after which Isaac H. Nutter, of Atlantic City, N.J., began the raising of money by a contribution of $25 toward the endowment fund. Other Contributions Dr. Terry proposed that 60 men contribute $10 each in order to complete the sum of $1,000 to have the name of Kelly Miller placed on the bronze tablet as a token of esteem for the services he has rendered at Howard University. He gave $10. Others who contributed were S. L. McLaurin, $26; Thomas Walker, $10; Dr. Marshall Ross, New York City, $50; Mrs. T. W. Turner, $25; Dr. Sutherland, $25; T. Gillis Nutter, $25; Mrs. Madre Marshall, 10; Neval H. Thomas, 10, and Rev. James L. Pinn, $10. The annual address to the alumni association was delivered by Harry J. Capehart, of Welch, W. Va. Dr. Scott Wood, has been elected by the alumni to fill the position of alumni secretary and editor of the alumni magazine. SO often you hear it said that nothing is cheaper than postage—a letter across the continent for only 2 cents! For local delivery, however, the Government's service is excelled for economy by the service of your Electric Bill Deliverers. Every bill delivered to your door by the mailman entails a cost of 2c for postage alone. The total cost of delivering these bills is reduced to less than A CENT EACH when our own bill deliverers do the job! Further than that, these men know that the measure of their value to the Company is the degree with which they serve the customer and deliver the bill according to the customer's wishes. Savings that accrue from economic management which takes advantage of every possible cost reduction has brought about the present higher standards of service at the lowest rates ever known for the dependable day and night service supplied by the Keep a carton of Manda Lamps on hand at all times for emergency.

Milton Waldron, of the Shiloh Baptist Institutional Church of this city. The event will be appropriately celebrated by the pastor and the church. Dr. Waldron says, that his last year's work practically covers only nine months, since he and his wife, Mrs. M. M.

He attended and conducted 65 funerals, married 35 couples and made 775 pastoral visits, and attended and took part in 36 church councils and other miscellaneous meetings of his church and his denomination. During the twelve months which ends next Sunday, the Shiloh church, under the direction of Dr. Waldroa, will have raised for current expenses and debt and interest upon the church $18,977.51; $1,000 for home and foreign missions; $1,250 for benevolence and education, while the Sunday school and the various Christian Endeavor societies of the church raised for their special work between $1,000 and $1,200. The church has carried on a noon-day prayer meeting every day in the year (except Sunday) with a daily average attendance of 21 persons. Shiloh Church is supporting Miss Clarice Gooding, one of its members, who is at work at Careysburg, Liberia, West Coast Africa. The church, Sunday school and C. E. Societies have carried on special work among the city dwellers and unfortunate of the city and conducted a coaching class in which 35 young men and young women, who fell behind in their studies in the high and normal schools and Howard University, were enabled to nake up their deficiencies and graduate from the various departments of the above mentioned institutions.

Ne had been continuaily trying to make engage- ments with -her, she stated. She did not know at that time that he was married. Shown’ the alleged confession of “enard, she identified the signature his,” The confession read: “I tar I did trick Miss Josephine Jleman into meeting me and that 4id ask her to go into a house and ait for me until I saw a friends and that I took advantage of her ina brutal way.” It was dated No- vember 30, 1928. ‘The first witness called by the a’ was Garnet C. Wilkinson, ‘T. assistant superintendent of Ve schools. He identified the C jure to the confession as that Menard. The confession was H to him December 1, 1926, by ¥ “Coleman, he said. He imme- M.; went to the Dunbar High MM. (and conferred with Menard M) ‘presence of the principal. wi that conference, Mr. Wilkin- ¥, stated, Menard denied that the ‘ture was his. <ider cross examination by Charles’ S. Cuney, attorney for Menard, Mr. Wilkinson said that he referred the Case to Frank W. Bal- Jou, superintendent, for reference to the Boardof. Education, February 2, 1927, Recalled to the stand later, Mr. Wilkinson testified that Menard had telephoned him at his home on De- cember 6, 1926, and inquired if he had heard that William L. Toyer, who was then a student in the Dun bar High School and sweetheart of Miss Coleman, had theatened him that day. Menard -tald»him, Mr. Wilkinson said, that he wanted to sue Toyer and Miss Coleman and wanted to Gef his signed statement, Upon his refusal tolet him have it, Mr. Wil- kinson stated, Menard suggested to him that he could destroy it. Mr. Wilkinson~reported the conversa: tion to Superintendent Ballou. Principal Smith of Dunbar High School was unable to identify the signature to the confession. He would not state positively that it was or was not the signature of Menard. Mr, Toyer testified that he wrote the confession and was the one who caused Menard to sign it. “I pre- pared it on his desk,” Toyer stated, “and told him to sign it.” “Did you see him sign it?” Charles F. Carusi, president of the board, asked. “I together with Miss Coleman saw him sign it,” he answered. He had Menard to sign the con- fession, he said, in order that he might turn it over to Mr. Wilkin- son. He explained the delay in do- ing this by. saying that he wished to wait untik Miss Coleman gradu- ated in order to save her embarrass- ment at school, In his questioning of Toyer Mr. Cuney tried to bring out that he had ‘threatened Menard. Toyer denied this and said that the best of relations had obtained between him and Menard until Miss Cole- man told him about the attack in August, 1925. Toyer went to Men- ard’s home to see him. Menard was absent and he related to Mrs. Men- ard the story that Miss Coleman had told him. Tha night Menard telephoned her. Miss Coleman stated, and asked her why did she tell Toyer and “didn't I have bejter sense than to tell that” He told her, she said, “leave it to me, I'll settle the mat- ter.” Miss Letitia B. Townes, the aunt of Miss Coleman, declared that she had advisedsher niece to say nothing about the attack. “I told her,” she said, “it would bring her so much trouble and tale she had better say nothing about it.” She added that “it might mot have been the right thing to do, but I did it.” Menard claimed that the signa- ture to the alleged confession was a forgery. The first time he saw the confession, he: said, was when Mr. Wilkinsom showed it to him, letting him see only the signature at first. He said that students were used to make out official reports and some of them were adept to: signing names. > ‘Menar! was handed a number of reports and asked to pick out those that he himself had signed.

Miss Coleman on this occasion swore at him, he said, Toyer told him, Menard stated, that if he denied the authenticity of the signature to the confession, he was going to shoot him full of holes. He got in touch with Headquarter: Detective Paul Jones, he said, and sought to have Toyer arrested. He admitted having asked Mr. Wilkinson to destroy the conies sion, His reason for doing so, he said, was to avoid any scandal, The testimony of Harvey Givens as_a handwriting expert was ad- mitted. He declared that the signa- ture on the confession. was not writ: ten by Menard. The board retired and the mem- bers were polled. The decision was that the charges have been proved and Menard is guilty, Shortly after the board began the transaction of its regular business, Superintendent Ballou presented a formal order from Assistant Super- intendent Wilkinson recommending the dismissal of Menard. It was unanimously approved. In February the charges against Menard were referred to the office of the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia. He re- turned the papers to the Board of Education stating that the evidence was of such a nautre that he could not base a successful criminal prosecution of Menard on it. Menard, who had been suspend- ed pending action on the charges, was reinstated. He demanded pay for the time of his suspension. The board appointed two members, Henry Gilligan and Isaac Gans, to study the question, This committee reported that the board was with out authority to certify Menard for pay during the time of his suspen- sion. It stated that Menard had questioned the justification of his Suspension and recommended: that in fairness to him that he be giveu a trial to the end that he would be fully and completely exonerated, if nnnecent, or dismissed from the public schools if guilty.

President Submits First Report. President Johnson submitted his first annual report to the board, showing that one of the, chief ac- complishments of his ‘administra- tion is the having on hand of a sur- plus for the first time in five years He reported that the total enroll- ment for this schoo! year aggregat- ed 2.404 students, she larges* in the history of the university.

Third, the attitude of revolution and destruction, meeting force with force, blow for blow, reprisal for reprisal, atrocity for atrocity, war for war. None of these attitudes, he declared, will reform the world. The fourth he offered was the attitude of constructive criticism, of constructive, creative faith, that the world is bad but can be made better, that evil can be overcome with good, and that good shall win in the end. The old order of strife, of might, of imperialism, of militarism, of privilege and of race prejudice, he declared, is being challenged all over the world, in Russia, in China and across Asia. The Chinese revolution, he said, is going to succeed and Sun Yat-Yen will prove to be the George Washington of China.

Atlanta :: Georgia right, that they could go out to work with the motivation of hatred or with the motivation of love, that they could go out to live from hand to mouth, a fragmentary life, without religion, but that "if you are going to have that great dynamic you have got to have behind you the faith of our fathers." Religion, he described, as the great driving power and dynamic of life. "Have you got it in your life as you go out?" he asked. He pointed out the great price of leadership. "The leader," he said, "must know the road. He must keep ahead. He must get others to keep ahead. He must pay the price of leadership. You will be misrepresented. Others will be jealous of you. 'But he that would be great among you must be servant of all.' How many of you are going out in that spirit? How many of you are going out to find this hidden power in life?" He compared the philosophies of might and of moral sasluation. As a result of the world trying the philosophy of might, he said, 10,000,000 died on the battlefields and 30,000,000 others from famine and pestilence following in the wake of the war, leaving a world impoverished and embittered, 5,000,000 war widows and 9,000,000 war orphans. He urged the graduating students to take the other philosophy of right, of moral suasion, of self-sacrifice, of overcoming evil with good that will uplift childhood, redeem womanhood, put down slavery and bring peace and good-will among men. "I believe," he asserted, "that upon no other philosophy will the chains of slavery be broken and the world set free of capitalism, of imperialism, of privilege and injustice under which it suffers today."

LOUIS, MO., U.S.A. Washington Black Sox Trim Mohawk Team ```markdown ``` Sam's Scripts Attorney Joe Neal has a son who promises to be a real star of the cinder paths some day. Little Timmie Neal lived up to advance notices by taking two first places in the Elementary Schools' meet held at Walker Memorial Stadium last Monday. Weighing less than 80 pounds the kid took his class high jump besides shaking a wicked foot to land the 50-yard dash, the opening event. That surely was one "wow" of a play "Puds" Brown made on Streeks in the fourth inning of the Cubans, then on last Sunday doubleheader b between the Mohawks and Black Sox. The Sox second baseman went over fast after Strecks' drive across the middle cushion, left his feet, dived across the bag, gained possession of the sphere, then still flat on the ground he reached back and touched the bag with the ball to force Bozek who was on first at the time. --- By the way—that reminds me, Johnny Bozek, who, only last week was named by the daily papers as the District's greatest all-round athlete for all time, appeared in the Mohawk line-up. Bozek played shorstop under the name of Stone. According to Mr. Pinderhughes, swimming instructor at Dunbar, swimming will be a major sport in the high schools before long. The aquatics last Friday proved very successful. Ben Taylor's pitchers seem to be struck with some kind of iron man fever. Only week before last Yokely pitched two games against the Cubans, then last Sunday's Force took up duties in the third inning of the first game against the Bacharachs and pitched the rest of the afternoon. Yokely and Force seem rather Strong. I see by the papers that Tex Richard intends to take Fugazy to court in an effort to prevent the Wills-Paulino battle scheduled for June 20. It's funny some bird doesn't promote a bout between Tex and Humbert, since these two are always at it any way—and nobody seems ever to win. Ted Thompson and Dick Temple are back home. Wilberforce and Lincoln have closed and these two home town boys are back with us. Ted promises to condition this year, and if he will only do that, Washington will again be able to boast of the National Tennis Champion. Here's sportsmanship from a real clean-cut athlete, Eddie Davis sacrificed the chance to win the C. I, A. A. A. Tennis Singles Title because Reid, his schoolmate and doubles partner had won it the previous year. The local boy stands head and shoulders above anything in the association and even with a broken finger he has constantly beaten the defender. As a consequence, Cotten of Hampton, took Reid into camp and Virginia Seminary lost the singles championship, as did Ed, the laurels. Though he knew he could easily win the title, Davis denied himself the sure thing honors that Reid might defend his championship. ARMSTRONG SHAKES JINX Armstrong wound up her season of thirteen games played by taking Miner Normal's measure by a 7 to 4 count. For the past two seasons, "Hank" Jones had but to toss his glove into the game and his former team mates were a whipped crew. But a different set faced him last Friday at The Walker Stadium. Lynn easily out-pitched both Walker and Jones who flipped them over for the future professors.

The first game ended 9-2 and the second, 7-5. The Hawks presented an array of first-class ball tossers and it was only through relentless slugging that the Sox were able to down their highly touted rivals. Lefty Smith performed brilliantly on the mound for the Black Sox in the opening game and experienced little trouble in holding the white team at bay while his teammates were pounding the offerings of Nick Panella, Hawk ace. Lefty Tripp, recognized as one of the city's outstanding portisiders, was sent to the rescue of his faltering mate in the seventh, but even his freak slants could not stop the avalanche of base hits peeling off the Sox bats. The second game was an uphill battle for the colored boys. The Mohawks scored a run in each of the first three frames, while the Black Sox were unable to put a runner past first base. Two runs were garnered off the alien hurler in the Sox half of the third, and from then on the colored boys were in the running.

Although not more than seven schools entered boys in the meet, Lovey's team was the best balanced team and one of the strongest that has ever represented a local elementary school. Much credit belongs to the principal of the school, Mr. Wesley and Mr. Whitaker of the Community Center, who managed and coached the boys. A summary of the dashes and relays follow, (the winners were all from Lovejoy School): 50-yard dash—won by Neal; second, Wesley; third, Pippin. 60-yard dash—won by Jones; Curtis, second; Young, third. 70-yard dash—won by Kenney; second, Fennell; third, J.

TRIBUNE LEAGUE NOW POPULAR The successful organization of a Tribune Baseball League, to be made up of senior teams in and around Washington, seems to be a surety. Eight teams had delegates or representatives at the initial meeting of this new loop now under construction which was held at the office of the Washington Tribune, 920 U street, on Monday night. The Anacostia Athletics, Washington Pirates, Washington Athletics, formerly the Lincoln Athletic Club, Columbia Cubs, Myrtle Preps, Washington AllStars, Monarchs, and Dulin and Martin Athletic Club, were represented and the Forestville Athletics' management called the Sports editor and signified that team's willingness to join. The new league, in all probability will get under way with games on July 3. From that date throughout the summer good games will be furnished Washington fandom on some of the league's grounds every Saturday and Sunday. A second meeting to be held Tuesday evening, June 14 at 6:30 p.m. sharp is expected to bring in a number of teams not represented at the organization meeting. The conference Tuesday night will be for the purpose of outlining a brief constitution by which the organization might be governed and to formulate general plans for its perservance. The Sports editor as well as the various managers who have already entered their teams, are anxious to have representatives from the Gladiator, Togans, Hillsdales, Brookland Giants, Potomac Giants, Colesville All-Stars, Brightwood, Maryland White Sox, and Arlington Athletics at the meeting Tuesday evening. Sharp 6:30 is the time. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY. JUNE 10. 1927 COLORED BOYS SHATTER WORLD MARKS AT CHICAGO HERE'S SOMETHING THAT'S WORTH READING CHICAGO, Illinois, June 4. Four colored athletes made their names famous when their brilliant performances brought honors to their schools at the National Inter-scholastic Track Championships held at Soldier Field. The occasion was the twenty-third annual University of Chicago Track Meet, and the lads were Eugene Beatty. Love Snowden, and John Lewis of Northeastern High School of Detroit, and Eddie Tolan, of Cass Tech High, Detroit. Beatty and Lewis established records, while Tolan equalled still another. The Northeastern team, a four man combination of which three are Negroes won first place in the meet with 23 points, while Cass Tech aided by the superb sprinting of Tolan was third. This quartet of race boys matching speed and brawn with 1,000 others from 182 high schools from 33 states won all the major events in which one of their number was entered. Each of the sprints in which a colored boy was entered resulted in a victory for him. Tolan won the 100 and 220-yard dashes. His time of 9:45 seconds in the century equalled the world's high school record. Snowden took By E. B. Henderson As a headline article in hundreds of Sunday papers the Associated Press carried the following: "The flying ebony feet of three Negro boys, carried by a white companion, carried North-east High School of Detroit into the interscholastic championship of America today. This quartet, matching speed and brawn with 1,000 other boys from 182 high schools in 33 states won the twenty-third national interscholastic meet, held under the auspices of the University of Chicago on Soldier's Field by scoring 23 points. Cass Tech High School of Detroit, a three man team composed of a Negro, a Mexican and a white youth was third with twelve points." The top liners were the colored boys. Tolan of Cass High School where Charles Lindbergh's mother teaches, won the 100 and 220 yard dash equalling the world's scholastic record in the 100 yards. Beatty another colored boy from Northeast High of Detroit won the 120 yard and 220 yard hurdle races which was a new Chicago scholastic record. None of this would have happened had these boys lived in Washington or Baltimore. Mixed schools and no segregation makes it possible to take advantage of Americanism which is the spirit of free and fearless competition. America learn the game in school-day sports and apply it in business and other avenues of life. All nations are trying to copy this American trait. Then everybody loves the spirit of fight against Nature or her children. Lindbergh's feat calls up thrills in the breasts of men and women in every avenue of life. The feats of the boys mentioned make for feelings of kinship, and better relationship throughout most of Americans where the element of fair-play lives. Again, this could not have happened if these Negroes had remained South. The more who leave Dixie for the North the better. This athletic stunt looks like a purely physical feat but there is much to be said of the mental attributes necessary to win in a meet of the proportions of the National inter-scholastic games. BALTIMORE SOX MAINTAIN LEAD BALTIMORE, Md., June 5—By breaking even in their double bill with the Brooklyn Royals here today Ben Taylor's Baltimore Black Sox were able to maintain leadership in the Eastern Baseball League. Having been defeated 9-2 in the opener the Sox came back strong to take the Royals' measure in the 11-7 nightcap. Force relieved Yokeley in the first encounter and after having pitched the 6 innings remaining in that game went back and toed the mound throughout the second fracas. A 5 run handicap his team gave him at the outset was a big help. First Game Brooklyn ..... 304 110 000—9 Black Sox ..... 100 010 000—2 Second Game Black Sox ..... 050 032 01x—11 Brooklyn ..... 010 300 003—7 k Team S SHATTER S AT CHICAGO third in this event. The 440-yard dash in which Lewis ran resulted in his showing his heels in record time to all competitors. Lewis' time of 50:1-5 seconds is a mark to shoot at, as this betters, by 3-5 of a second, the Chicago intersholatic record set by Cuhel of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, in 1924. Beatty took both hurdle events, under little pressure. Putting on steam in the 220-yard low hurdles the Northeastern star ran away from his field to clip 3-5 of a second off the previous record time of 24:4-5 seconds. Three performers were tied for high points with 10, representing two firsts each. Tolan and Beatty were tied with R. Hall of Fort Worth, Texas, who secured first places in the shot put and discus throw. The week previous to the University of Chicago Championships, Beatty, Lewis, and Tolan starred in the All-State Track Competition at Lansing, Michigan. The Detroit Independent in speaking of Tolan says, "Eddie Tolan has been winning the 100 and 220-year dashes so rregularly that all opposing coaches figure on, is second place, when he goes to the mark." THING THAT'S READING A A A E. B. HENDERSON, President of the Public Schools Athletic League Departmental Leadership Deadlocked The Government Printing Office baseball team of the Departmental league moved into a tie with the league leading Treasury nine Wednesday by virtue of an 11-10 victory. Both teams used a pair of hurlers, due to the fact that the affair turned out to be a slugfest. Harris, starting for Treasury, gave way to Grant in the second frame, while Lacy was relieved by Bland in the seventh. These two teams will meet in a benefit game, Saturday June 18 at 2:30 o'clock at Union League Park. Proceeds of the game will go to the Lincoln Congregational Church Building Fund. SPEARS IMPROVING A letter from "Nappy" Henderson who is still in Atlantic City, New Jersey, following his successful stay with the Buccaneer Basketball team during the close of their court season, states that contrary to rumor, Reuben Spears is in a much improved condition. The former star of the Howard University quint who sustained a broken leg as the result of an auto accident and who later developed scarlet fever, was reported dead, but Henderson contradicts this. "When I was home (on excursion Sunday, May 22) I heard the rumor that Spears of Howard was dead, but that is all "bunk." He is getting along fine although he has lost his right foot. I was out to see him the other day and he is very much alive—" says the ex-Carlisle star in his letter. ANDY PENDLETON ON THE 41B Andy Pendleton's Dixie Revellers presented a half-hour's program of dance music at WGBS, Gimbel Brothers, New York, Wednesday evening, June 8, beginning at 6:30. The evening's offering included vocal solos by Mr. Pendleton. The band recently "filled in" on an afternoon program at the Gimbel New York station and so pleased the studio officials that it was immediately booked for an evening date and will be a weekly evening attraction. BOSSES LEAGUE LEADERS WASHINGTON BEN TAYLOR Manager Ben Taylor, ex-boss of the Washington Potomac, who now heads the Baltimore Black Sox has a sweet chance to take a championship team out west for the world's series in October. His bunch now leads the pack in the Eastern Colored League. Ben has lost none of his batting prowess, and his work at the initial sack in the circuit's fastest infield is still "up to snuff." ORIENTAL TIGERS TO MEET ALL-STAR NINE Twilight baseball at South Capitol and P Streets, southwest, has proven so popular that Manager Elzie Richards of the Orientalts is making every effort to present the fans with up-to-date attractions. On next Wednesday, beginning at prompt 5 p.m., Jimmy Carroll's All-Stars made up of a selection of what Carroll considers the cream of local sand-tot semi-pro baseball talent will meet the Oriental team on the Southwest diamond. Bill Fauntroy, Tiny Hansborough, and Bus Williams will be the flychasers on that day. The inner defense will be taken care of by a four out of such performers as Soup Turner, Ben Fells, Buck Carroll, Cat Taylor, and Ed Barner. Either Tom Payne or King will do the receiving while the hurling duties will be placed into the hands of Joe Harris, Sam Lacy or Willie Briscoe. SEASON FOR GOLF PROMISING SEASON FOR GOLF PROMISING The season of 1927 promises to be a big one for colored golf. In this city, we have already had one tournament with two others to be held within the next two months. The first Women's Invitational Golf Tournament to be held in this city will be played over the Lincoln Memorial Course on Sundays, July 17 and 24, while the Men's Invitational Tournament, the first ever held for the championship of the District of Columbia will take place over the same course July 31, August 17, and 24. Still another, the National Open, will be held in Stow, Mass., on September 4 and 5. The first tournament, for women will be divided into two flights. The qualifying round will take place July 17, beginning at 10:30 a.m. First round match play will be run off at 2:30 the same afternoon. The semi-final and final rounds will be played at 10:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., respectively, on July 24. All rounds are to be for 9 holes. Three on Committee Mrs. Lelia Eaton, Mrs. C. M. Water, and Mrs. M. Oldham form the committee in charge of this event. The Men's Invitational will be run off on a slightly different basis. The first sixteen to qualify will play from scratch for the championship. The second sixteen will form a handicap flight. The Citizen's Golf Club Trophy will be up for competition for the first time. The cup is to be awarded the first individual to win the tournament 3 times. The winners in each flight will receive some sort of prize. Open Tournament The National Open Tournament which will be fought over the Mapledale Country Club course in September should draw many entries. Harry Jackson of this city, last year's winner, and Beltram Barker one of the country's leading amateurs are working out daily in preparation for the event. John M. Shippen, veteran of many years, is at the top of his game this year, and the local star promises to be worthy of much respect. It is also reported that George Aaron, the crack star from New York, will make his bid for honors in a large field which will doubtless include Bull of Chicago and Dick Walker of Washington, among other stellar golfers.

DUDLEY-KEY STABLE TO RACE IN CANADA By S. H. Dudley, Sr. I have just returned from Akron, Ohio, where I have been with our stable. We didn't have much luck. We won one race with The Maid. She also got second and third money in two races. Lady Glassen finished once second and once third. Lady Edna finished once second. The star of the stable couldn't get close for some reason, neither could the rest of the nags. We had three sick horses who are about well at this writing. On Thursday, June 2, the entire string boarded the special horse Pullman for Ottawa, Canada, and I hope to have better luck. One thing sure, I will have better luck or fewer horses on my return. SEVEN DICTS STATEMENT Manager Brooks of the Anacostia Athletic Club, states that contrary to the report in last week's Tribune, his team did not lose the second game of their doubleheader with the Hillsdale Athletic Club. The games, played Sunday week resulted in an 11-5 win for the Anacostians in the first game and a forfeiture in the second according to the southeast team's manager. It is said the Hillsdales walked off the field when they disagreed with an umpire's decision. ANACOSTIA ATHLETICS WIN TWICE The Anacostia A. C. won a pair of games very handily on Sunday when the Togans were down 16-6 and the Black Barons sucumbed to a 13-5 liking. Claybourne, on the mound for the Anacostia lads, pitched good ball and experienced little difficulty in keeping the alien hits well scattured. The Black Barons were unable to connect with the slants of Stewart and the result of the second game was never in doubt.

BIG MID-NIGHT RAMBLE, FRIDAY 12:15 SHARP THIS WEEK UNTIL SUNDAY—"LUCKY SAMBO" JOHN BARRYMORE AT THE LINCOLN NEXT WEEK LINCOLN NEXT WEEK For Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, June 12, 13, 14 and 15 the Lincoln Theatre man- agement presents America's foremost actor John Barrymore in "The Beloved Rogue." The theatregoers no doubt re- member with interest the master- ful acting of this genius in "Don Juan," also the elaborateness and magnificence of this production, but, according to all reports Mr. Barrymore's new picture, "The Beloved Rogue," the first production with his own company, promises to out-do the much talked of "Don Juan." In the production of "The Be- JOHN BARRYMORE loved Rogue," John Barrymore portrays the role of Francois Vilion, famed eccentric beggar-poet of the fifteenth century of France. This role gives Mr. Barrymore the exceptional opportunity of (displaying his remarkable athletic ability as well as his well recognized title of the world's greatest lover. Words fail to do credit to the magnificence and marvelous acting of John Barrymore, but, if the public remembers the crowds that were on hand to see Mr. Barrymore's last production they will come early in order that they might obtain a seat so as to view this mighty production without waiting and remember the usual admission prices will prevail. Elizabeth Smith has been secured by the Lincoln Theatre. She is the girl with the sweet voice and the talking uke. She will appear all next week in addition to the showing of "The Beloved Rogue." This sweet young lady has made a big hit every place she has played. On Thursday and Friday, June 16 and 17, will be shown Colleen HOWAR ADMISSION SCALE—Matin Evening ONE WEEK Stopp FLO BROWN CECIL RIVERS FAS MON., TUES., WED.— RAINBO Moore in her latest production, "Orchids and Ermine." This is the production on which the management as well as the public was disappointed in seeing during the past month, but it will positively be shown on the days mentioned. In this production Colleen Moore takes the part of a telephone ope- ```markdown ``` rater at one of the big New York hotels and in this position keeps busy by day, and by night, dreams of orchids and ermine that she has seen during the day and every love call has been a wrong number, until cupid suddenly said "Hello" and she fell in love with a millionaire traveling incognito as his own valet. The situations that arise in the unraveling of this story makes the production as beautiful as orchids and as gorgeous as ermine. Miss Moore has a great supporting cast in this picture including Jack Muhall, Kate Price, Hedda Hopper, Owen Lee and Sam Hardy. Friday, June 17, will be the last day on which the Alpha Kappa Alpha tickets will be honored at the Lincoln Theatre.

McGowan. There will also be three big talent shows on Saturday beginning at 5:00, 7:15 and 9:15. "STOPPING THE TRAFFIC" AT THE HOWARD NEXT WEEK For the week of June 13, the Howard Theatre management is bringing the show back that made such a phenominal hit when it has appeared here. It is Dewey Wineglass's "Stopping the Traffic" with the cast as follows, Flo Brown, Billy McLaren, Cecil Rivers, Bertha Roe, Slim Thompson, Blondina Stern and the famous team of Lomax and McAllister together with the great chorus of the best Russian dancers that are in any show on the road today. This company needs no introduction to the theatre-goers of Washington as the previous visits of Dewey Wineglass and his remarkable skill and agility in putting over the Russian dance which he so gracefully does has left an unforgettable mark on the minds of the public. In addition to this splendid bill the management has arranged for further entertainment on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, June 13, 14 and 15, in presenting Johnny Hines in his latest comedy, "Rainbow Riley." In this production we find Johnny Hines in the role of a cub reporter who went into the hills of Kentucky on his first assignment to cover the feud between the Ripper and White Clans. Thinking that the assignment is in. the nature of a vacation, he provides himself with athletic equipment. Upon his arrival, however, he finds it anything but a vacation and also that he must declare himself loyal to both clans. He then falls in love with the beautiful daughter of the leader of the Ripper clan and because he cannot let himself be loved by a daughter of one of the White clansmen he provokes the wrath of both sides, who set out to exterminate him. The complexities that follow is one of tragedy, mirth and laughter, but finally he emerges from the tangle with the girl he loves and returns to his paper with the biggest scoop of the year and an adorable wife. On Thursday, Frida'; Saturday and Sunday, June 16, 17, 18 and 19, will be shown "Birds of Prey" with Priscilla Dean.

J.—With tennis in New York at a low ebb due to lack of courts, interest largely centers on the doings of the play- ers across the Hudson. The active N. J. T. A. is planning a banner season of matches and tourna- ments, A decidedly unique event is the Class B Tournament which has been held for four years at Asbury Park. This Tournament has always been the scene of bril- liant social gatherings, taking atl- vantage of the holidays and week- ends at the seashore. This year the tournament will be held on July 1, 2, 3, and 4, on the courts of the Shore Players T. C. Springwood avenue, near Springdale avenue. Three courts are being prepared with excellent arrangements for the comfort of visitors, and a banner entry is ex- pected. The favorite for this year is Dr. Ernest A. Robinson, Asbury Park physician. He headed the second ten in the 1926 New Jer- sey ratings, and was runner up in both singles and doubles, last year. J. Mercer Burrell, who rates just below Robinson in the New Jersey ratings, and who is No. 27 in the A. 7 A. rating for 1928, is expected to give Robinson a battle, + Lawrence Dancy and Dr. Char- les E. Bomar, winners of the men’s doubles in 1926, will enter the sin- gles this year and both are dan- gerous players and either “may possibly upset the dope and win the Class B title. “Bill” Howard, New Jersey's oldest tennis player, will make his first appearance in this tourna- ment and use his improved back- hand. He will bear watching. E. Harold Hopper, Dr. G. A. Kyle, Dr. J. E. Harris, R. Me- Wilson, R. Bingham, V. Craig, H. Marrow, Dr. J. Parker and Mr. Gibbs are other well known stars whose entires have been received by the committee in charge. Dr. John Hayes and “Judge” Amos Williamson of Asbury Park, are heading committees in charge of entertainment of visitors. As- bury Park citizens have donated a collection of beautiful trophies of the famous N. J. T. A. style and quality for the successful con- testants, ARLINGTON ATHLETICS WIN PAIR ‘The Arlington Athletics took another doubleheader last Sunday afternoon, The first game was taken from the Fairfax Black Sox and the second from the Wash- ington Hillsdales. * The Athletics jumped on the of- ferings of Alexander and Payne to amass a total of 12 runs which was enough to allow for the weak- ening of the Arlington hurler. The final score was 12-10. In the second game R. Jones Jed the Virginia batters on a ram- page which completely snowed the local team under a 9-4 count.

A. A. C. P. and the How- ard Theatre management, was an overwhelming success. The proceeds amounted to $707.65. The benefit was to relieve the suffering of the victims in Miss- issippi, Arkansas, and Louisiana, through financial aid. The thea- tre was packed. The money, which was placed fn the hands of the local presi- dent of the N. A. A.C. P.. Neval H. Thomas, was sent direct to the New Orleans branch of the organization, Wednesday even- ing, for distribution right at the scene of action. The Howard Theatre was do- nated for the performance which was given, and the stars all do- nated their services. Among the participants were Irving C. Mil- ler, who acted as master of cere- monies, Miller and Lyles, Ernest Whitman, Salem Tutt Whitney and Mabel Ridley, Homer Whit- ney, Dusty Fletcher, Elizabeth Smith Fisher and Fisher, Fred Hunter, and Nona Marshail and Billie Young. > Dud’s Dope By S. H. Dudley, Sr. I found my desk piled up with correspondence, mostly ills and 1 am at present one busy man, I also found several letters tha. were encouraging for the colored moving picture proposition, and also the following article copied from “Show Life.” ~ “Since writing the article, ‘The Origin of the Motion Pieture” there have been a number made and exhibited by our race; foremost among them have been those re- leased by the Micheaux Corpora- tion, which has ha” quite a few releases with Evelyn Preer in the star role. “It is generally known that the producing of first-class” motion pictures requires a large amount of capital. Just the other day my attention was called to an an- nouncement that S. H. Dudley, Sr., of Washington, had given to the ‘press an outline for the forming of a corporation at one million dollars. A million dollars might sound big, but it is only « small amount when you take into con- sideration that the motion. picture industry leads the world in reve- nues, “T would like very much to see Mr. Dudley launch such an enter prise as it would open a new field for all persons in the race— writers, actors, directors, opera- tors and numerous other crafts- men who are necessary in the pro- ducing of pictures. “With the “proper handling. of a proposition of this caliber, we could soon develop in our race, a peal .to..Mary. Pickford, Douglas airbanks, Charles Chaplin, or Rudolph Valentino. When ' Mr. Dudley eigeg out his definite plans for launcikide his campaign, let us all as a-race put our shoulders to the whpel and help Mr. Dudley to soon roll-up his million dollar corporation.” (Signed): WILL H.

The show is good, with some vety, very, very appealing scenes scattered through it. Do you know what I mean Oh, my, my, my! ; Well, to keep you from getting confused, I'll tell you. Remember the “Black-bottom scene"—whoooo! and the Marching Soldiers—two whoooo’s! Scenes like those catry one back to the time when the “Egyptian scene” appeared in “The Kentucky Club Revue,” witich play- ed the Howard the week of May 2 I know you haven't forgotten it, | T don’t know just what show you attended this week, (you who are ‘reading this coltimn at present), but when I was there at the Monday matinee, the audience denianded that “Black-bottom scene” for five appearances. Really, there _ were four encores. Can you beat it?- I Teave it to you to judge whether the scene déserved so much acclaim, ‘And int the drill scene, there was a lot of art and a lot of form shown by the “soldiers.” The chorus girls surely justified their presence in those two appearances. . Then, df course, the show has its line-up’ of stars. There's Billie Higgins and Joe Byrd, the come: dians; Ernest Whitman, Julia Moody, who looks as if she could act the part she sings in the song. “Any Woman's Man is My Man,” if she wanted to; Jesse Ships, and Al Watts, And we can't forget that trio, which includes Birleanna Blanks, Amanda Randolph, and Hilda Per- leno. They surely chirp sweetly, Hilda, as you may know, is a Tor mer student of Howard University. So, she has some claim on Wash- ington, as well as Washington has soine claim on her, Her original home is St. Louis. 1 don’t ktiow in which place she learned to sing, but where ever it was, she surely dipped her hand in the barrel for her share, And Tilda shows rare form, too. Tf you don't bélieve me, look up last December's issue of “Artists and Models.” She surely seemed to have been 4 fit subject for the artistic display. Oh, my, my, my! Aside from Hilda, there is amt other star who Washington claims —she is Julia Moody. Washington is represented in the chorus by Ristina Banks and Ruth Carter. At the Republic Theatre, Satur- day night, a good talent show was presented. Aside from two other acts, Taylor and Taylor, and Dollar Bill Jones, there was also Morton and Robinson, who played the thea- tre all last week. It*made a good bill with these three acts: on it: Morton and Robinson are just off the big tine . Keith circuit, and thein. renditions were really. goods ‘The singing of Miss Robinson was a treat. We'd like to see more acts like that of these two come to the R -ublic. —“- 9 For the second week, the Lincoln Theatre offered its patrons the sing- ing. and playing of Miss Mabel Ridley, and the wit and humor of Selem Tutt Whitney.

Vay June 1—A bequest of eight thous and dollars has as been received by Storer College from the estate of Frank Gibson, of Malden, Meise, a former student of the institution. This is the largest donation ever. made the college by a colored ime dividual, and is believed by Da George R. Hovey, sécretary for education of the Baptist Homé Mig= sionary Society, to which Storer College belongs, to be the largest single gift from a person of colot. to any of the Baptist colleges fot Negro youth. 4 The donor was a hard needa frugal man who denied himself, th ‘his small savings might grow. into /a sum that would fittingly exprass ‘his gratitude to the school that gave him a start, His gift is a neta- ie example of the growing ten- dency on the part of colored people of means to support the institutions of their group, AN HOUR'S DRIVE TO EAGLE HARBOR, Ma.
