HOWARD UNIVERSITY COMPLETES MEDIC ENDOWMENT DRIVE OVER $150,000 IN CASH GIVEN BY NEGROES. FIFTY- ONE DONATE $1,000 EACH FIRST in Advertising and Circulation HOWAR OVER $150,00 GIVEN BY NEG ONE DONATE Howard University has raised the amount of money necessary to meet the conditional offer of the General Education Board of $250, 000 toward an endowment fund of $500,000 for the medical school, Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president, announced at a meeting of drive workers Thursday night. It was announced at the meeting held on Howard University campus last night that $150,259.42 of the total amount of $250,000 paid in cash was contributed by colored people. It was announced that over 51 Negroes have contributed one thousand dollars or more. Their names will be placed on a bronze tablet in the new medical building. It is the claim of Howard University that the work of the medical school is national, and in some instances, international. With an endowment of $500,000 assured, and a new medical school building which with its equipment is also to cost $500,000. Howard will start the new school year, October 1, 1927, with a new plant of one million dollars. Contracts have also been formulated to spend nearly $20,000 in altering the present medical school building for the dental and pharmaceutical departments. The offer of the General Education Board was conditional upon Howard University raising a like sum of $250,000. In February, the sum of $99,000 needed to be raised to meet the terms of this offer, Julius Rosenwald, Chicago philanthropist, agreed to give $25,000 of this balance if the remaining amount were raised by July 1, 1927 In addition to its endowment fund of $500,000 the medical school will be housed in a new building, rCongress appropriated the sum of $700,000 for the construction of this building. It will be equipped at a cost of $130,000. Money for the equipment of the building was given by the General Education Board. SCHOOL OFFICERS PLAN UNIV. WORK DURING SUMMER Latest news from the Franklin Administration building confirms the fact that several administrative and supervisory officers will leave the city soon to pursue extension work in the various universities. This indicates that the desire for professional growth is increasing along all lines in the local educational system and that officials and teachers alike realize that the schools under their direction must keep pace with the most progressive in the country and this cannot be done, unless the best and most recent methods are studied and applied. Those who plan to take special work at the University of Pennsylvania are Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent in charge of colored schools, and Mr. Parks, principal of the Phelps Vocational School. Harvard is booked to receive Howard Long, assistant superintendent in charge of the research department. G. David Houston, principal of Armstrong. Miss Imogene Wormley, directress of the kindergarten department, matriculates at the University of Chicago. Mr. Rayford, director of school gardens, Mr. McDuffie, head of languages at Dunbar, Mr. Mattingly, principal of Francis Junior High School, Miss Spivey and Miss Brooks, assistant principals in the two senior high schools and Miss Harris, head of mathematics in Dunbar, are scheduled for Columbia. Others expected to do extension work in some accredited university are: Walter Smith, principal of Dunbar; J. Arthur Turner, principal of Miner Nomal; John Bruce, supervising principal, Thirteenth Division; Miss M. Kirkland, principal of Shaw Junior High School; Mrs. Mayer, directress of primary instruction, and A. K. Savoy, principal of the demonstration school. Edward Henderson, director of physical education, enrolls at Howard. Read the advertisements in this paper, they offer many good bargains.

NURSES GET MILLION DOLLAR TRAINING SCHOOL A $1,000,000 Nurses' Training School has been approved by the Borough President of the Bronx, New York City, for the Lincoln Hospital School for Nursing, the first school for training colored girls for the degree of R.N.. The new building will be a residence and school building. Fully equipped, it will cost $1,000,000. Lincoln Hospital was inaugurated in 1839, as a home and infirmary for old and indigent Negroes. Its first location, in 1841 was at the Hudson River and Fifty-first street. It was moved several times before it was put at its present site in 1898, at One-hundred forty-first street. The Nurses' Training School, connected with the hospital, is twenty-nine years old. The new structure is to be built on the different levels of rocks, which now mark the sites. The entrance is to be on the boulevard side with a broad view of the r ver. One wing of the building will be used by graduate nurses and the other by undergraduate. ANNUAL HORSE SHOW TO BE HELD JULY 4 The Fairmount Heights Citizens' Association, of which Isaiah Miles is president, and Sergeant Frank Coleman, treasurer, is sponsoring a tournament and horse show at ISAIAH MILES Fairmount Heights, Md., Monday, July 4.

Justice E. C. Clark of the United States District Court of New Jersey last Monday gave New York Elks until 30 days prior to the convention date to dissolve the injunction in New York state against the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. 2. Negotiations were immediately begun between Perry W. Howard, Grand Legal Advisor, and New York Elks for the purpose of settling differences and holding the convention in New York City in August. BOWLER SUICIDE IS CONFIRMED BY CORONER'S JURY Whatever suspicions there were in connection with the death of Robert J. Bowler, young attorney, were removed last Friday when a coroners jury returned a verdict of suicidal death. The police and Deputy Coroner Joseph D. Rogers had already decided that Bowler shot himself. Detective headquarters and the office of the United States attorney, however, were besieged with telephone calls and letters intimating that he had met with foul play. An inquest was ordered to clear up the contentions. The testimony of Jacob Tendler, a merchant, 914 D street, northwest, was the only new development at the inquest. It proved conclusively the suicide theory. Tender testified that around noon on the day Bowler shot himself, he sold Bowler the .38 caliber Iver Johnson gun with which the wound was self-inflicted. He had known Bowler for 3 or 4 years, he stated, and asked him why he was buying a gun. Bowler told him, Tender said, that he thought he needed one for his home protection. The store of Tender was pointed out to detectives late last Thursday afternoon by Alvin Thornton, who told the police that he saw Bowler in this store on the day he shot himself. Bowler paid $8 for the pistol. Sister Changes Story Mrs. Nellie B. Chapman, Bower's sister, changed her story at the inquest. She had previously told Headquarters Detective Lawrence O'Dea, who was assigned to the case, that her brother told her a few hours before he shot himself that he was in financial trouble and that death was the only way out of it. She told the coroner's jury that her brother did not seem to be unusually worried, although his collections in connection with his real estate and note transactions had been bad. He left her about 2 o'clock, she said. William Merch, steward at the Mu-So-Lit club, 1425 R street, northwest, told of finding Bowler wounded in his automobile on Broad Branch road, near Bryant street, in Rock Creek park. His story was corroborated by Mrs. Helen Harris, whom he was driving through the park. Funeral services for him were held from his residence 1817 Tenth street, northwest, late Friday afternoon. They were private, only relatives and immediate friends attending. He war a lawyer and real estate operator. His offices were in the Pythian Temple at Twelfth and U streets, northwest An array of lawyers took part in the inquest. They were Assistant United States Attorney William Shea, Benjamin L. Gaskins with whom Bowler had been associated in the practice of law, George E. C. Hayes, Joseph T. Settle, and William L. and Charles H. Houston. mington. Music will be furnished for dancing day and night. This is the second horse show given by this organization. Its first one was given last Labor Day. The organization is also planning one for Labor Day of this year. Robert H. Palmer, chairman of the executive committee and prime mover of the show, plans to have moving pictures made of the show next Monday. In addition to organizing the horse show tournament, Mr. Palmer has organized a Junior Citizens' Association with about three hundred members. WASHINGTON, D. C. FRIDAY, JULY 1, 1927 ELKS MAY YET MEET IN NEW YORK; ATTEMPT MADE AT CONCILIATION The twenty-eighth annual meeting of the grand lodge of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World may be held in New York City, August 22, if New York Elks will meet the conditions proposed by Grand Legal Advisor Howard after New York Elks were unsuccessful in obtaining an injunction against the grand lodge meeting in any other city than New York. In order to have Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson to revoke his last proclamation calling the grand lodge to meet in Cleveland and issue another proclamation calling the meeting of the grand lodge for New York City, New York Elks will have to insure the safety of grand lodge officers and delegates. The conditions propose: to New York Elks are that they put up $30,000 either in indemnity bonds or cash to secure grand lodge officers and delegates from any arrests under the injunction in New York state against the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, give the Grand Exalted Ruler adequate police protection, pay all costs including attorneys fees of the litigation, and get the approval of the Grand Exalted Ruler of all programs and entertainments. Conditions May be Met These conditions were acceptable to some of the representatives of New York attending the court hearing here Monday. Others thought that the terms too exacting. The belief was expressed here that these conditions would be met and the Grand Exalted Ruler would issue another proclamation calling the convention to meet in New York City. At the hearing of the injunction case brought against the grand lodge, J. Finley Wilson, Grand Exalted Ruler, and George E. Bates, Grand Secretary, Judge Clark refused to issue an injunction against the holding of the grand lodge in any other city than New York. He gave New York Elks until 30 days prior to the time of the meeting to (Continued on page 4) LIFE-LIKE EXHIBIT OF 'LAST SUPPER' TO HAVESHOWING LIFE-LIKE EXHIBIT OF 'LAST SUPPER' TO HAVESHOWING Almost uncanny is its life-like reality, as extraordinary and animated reproduction of "The Last Supper" is being shown as the piece de resistance of a life of Christ exhibit, which will be shown in the Lincoln Colonnade, 12th and U streets, northwest, for ten days, beginning Saturday, July 2, from 7 to 10 o'clock and on Sunday afternoon from 2 to 5 o'clock as well as at night. The exhibit, which is said to be the only one of its kind in the world, was brought to this country from Europe and has been on view in many cities. This is the second time it has ever been shown in Washington. Working in wax, the German artist, Stephans, spent 40 years of his life perfecting his version of "The Last Supper." It is a life-size reproduction of Leonardo de Vinci's famous painting and shows Christ and the 12 apostles, seated at the table, 40 feet long, dressed in robes of the period. On the table are placed the foods and gold and silver dishes as used at the time. The faces of the figures are executed with delicacy; the illusion being startingly real when the diners start to eat, their heads swaying back and forth and their lips opening as though in conversation. The expression of Judas is particularly good; every gesture being a subtle indication of his nature. Another remarkable feature of the exhibit is "The Shadow of the Cross" a painting of Christ, by an unknown artist. When the lights are turned off the shadow appears behind the figure of the Saviour, who seems to be walking toward the onlookers. The famous gold pin, upon which is engraved the Lord's Prayer, and was displayed at the World's Fair in Chicago, also is to be found in the collection. Everyone is welcome to the exhibit. MAID IS MARRIED IN MANSION OF HEREMPLOYER Probably one of the most unusual of atmospheres enshrouded the marriage of Mrs. Mae Briggman to David C. Powell in this city, Wednesday night. The wedding took place at the residence of Charles E. Marsh, white, secretary of the Real Estate Title Company, who lives at 909 Massachusetts avenue, northwest. This is the first wedding to have taken place in this residence in over 50 years. Both Mr. Marsh and his sister, Miss Bertha Marsh, are unmarried. Mrs. Briggman, for a number of years, has been employed as their maid. So far as can be learned this is the first time a colored maid has been offered the use of her employer's residence for a social occasion. Mr. Marsh was responsible for the elaborate manner in which the house was decorated. He and his sister entered into the ceremonies with the zeal and enthusiasm of parents. They were in the receiving line. They also partook, along with the guests, in the beautiful repast which followed the ceremonies. Rev. James E. Willis was in charge of the marriage ceremonies and was assisted by Rev. A. B. Fisher. The newlyweds are now in Easton, Md., on a short honeymoon trip. WANTS DIVORCE, SAYS HUSBAND WAS CRUEL Mrs. Victoria E. Carter, 1123 Fourth street, northwest, filed suit against her husband, Elmer V. Carter, an employee of the Interior Department, for maintenance last Friday. She is represented by Attorney Charles E. Robinson. In her bill of complaint she charges cruelty and desertion. She says her husband returned home from his work on April 19, shook hands with her, kissed her, said good-bye and deserted her taking up his abode at 917 New York avenue, northwest. Following an entertainment at the church which they attended, Mrs. Carter declares that her husband beat her and put her out when she asked him if he had received the ice cream another woman church member had told her she was going to take to him at his work. They lived together happily for six years after their marriage, Mrs. Carter states, after which her husband became cruel in his treatment of her. He would become angry, and on one occasion choked her, she says, whenever she would ask him for money to buy food and other necessities. He would tell her, she claims, if she wanted food, that the only way to get it would be to buy it and when she would buy it he would come home and eat it, leaving her nothing. The couple was married in the District of Columbia, September 1, 1919. They have no children. PLAYGROUNDS OPEN The Summer Playgrounds for municipal use are to be opened today on various grounds throughout the city. Besides the six now in operation at Howard, Rose Park, Logan, Willowtree, Cardozo and Payne, colored school vacationists will be able to enjoy themselves on ten additional grounds. Playgrounds have been opened and instructors placed at the following schools: Briggs, 22nd and N streets, northwest; Bruce, Kenyon street between Georgia and Sherman avenues; Cleveland, Eighth and T streets, northwest; Cook, North Capitol and P streets; Crummell, Central avenue, Ivy City, Deanwood; Giddings, Third and G streets, southeast; Lovejoy, Twelfth and D streets, northeast; Magruder, Seventeenth and M streets, northwest, and Smothers, Forty-fourth and Bennings road, northeast OFFICE: 920 U STREET, N.W.

ORGANIC UNION PLANS FED'L AUTO ASS'N ELECTS LANKF'RD NEW PRESIDENT It was announced at the offices of the Federal Automobile Association that at the annual meeting, Professor John A. Lankford was elected president for the ensuing year. Professor Lankford is well known 'as the supervising architect of the A. M. E. Church and for his work in church and civic affairs. In accepting the office, he was quoted as saying, 'It is not without very serious misgivings on my part that I accept the honor that has been conferred upon me, because I realize the tremendous responsibility that goes with the office. It is only because I feel that I can render better service to my many friends and to the membres of our race that I am willing to assume the presidency of the F. A. A. "When it is realized that only five per cent of the tourists in the United States are Negroes, it becomes very evident that there is an immediate need for improvement in motoring conditions, facilities, and accommodations. The advent and popularity of the automobile has made it possible for us to spend more of our time in the open, visiting places of natural beauty within a radius of a hundred miles, and enjoying the clean, fresh air of the country side. I dedicate myself to serve the 385.,000 Negro motorist of the United States." It is reported that the ever widening scope of activities is creating great interest in this organization throughout the United States and that inquiries are received daily from widely separated places in this country. The company's affairs are in the hands of a national advisory council, consisting of nationally known educators, clergymen and fraternal men. --- Dr. S. L.

M. E. and A. M. E. Zion churches held in Avary Mission Temple, this city, Friday, June 24, a report of the joint commission on organic union of the A. M. E. and A. M. E. Zion churches was read by Dr. John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the A. M. E. church and secretary of the joint commission. At the conclusion of the reading At the conclusion of the reading of merged church organization—of the section referring to the name The United Methodist Epicopal Church—a prolonged storm of applause was given by the more than 2,000 persons attending the meeting. A planned for the episcopal districts was roundly applauded, as well as suggestion for allocation of officers for the first four years of the proposed organization. To Have Weekly Papers The report of the commission called for combination of the 18 episcopal districts of the A. M. E. and the 12 districts of the A. M. E. Zion into a total of thirty episcopal districts for the United Methodist Episcopal Church. It also arranged for a publication board, calling for three publishing houses. These to be located in Philadelphia, Pa., Charlotte, N.C. and Nashville, Tenn. The report provides for three weekly church publications, The Christian Recorder, The Star of Zion and another to be located in the southwest, possibly Dallas, Tex., and to be known as the Southwestern Herald. To go to Churches It suggests the appointment of a special commission to threep out the legal problems in connection with property rights. The plan calls for the organic commission's report to be sent first to the board of bishops of each church connection for consideration, and then with their approval and revisions to the General Conferences of the A. M. E. in Chicago and the A. M. E. Zion in St. Louis in 1928. Following the action taken in these conferences the amended and approved plan is to then go to the various annual conferences, quarterly conferences and local churches in the two church organizations for approval or rejection.

IN WASHINGTON nearly everybody reads the - TRIBUNE PRICE FIVE CENTS COOLIDGE FAILS TO APPOINT A NEGROREGISTER COOLIDGE FAILS TO APPOINT A NEGROREGISTER Harley V. Speelman, Register of the Treasury, who has been a leader in enforcing segregation in the government departments here, will no longer be connected with the government service after August 1. Notice of his severance from the Federal payrolls came from the Summer White House at Rapid City, S. Dak., unceremoniously last Tuseday. Dispatches from the summer executive offices announced the appointment of Walter O. Wood, of Kansas, as register of the Treasury. President Coolidge announced the resignation of Speelman. When informed of the appointment of Mr. Wood, Speelman declared that he had not resigned and had no intention of doing so. It developed later that his only reason for not having resigned is that he is seeking disability retirement. The passing of Speelman from official life is hailed with delight. Ever since his appointment as register of the Treasury by the late President Harding, Speelman has been a source of continued embarrassment to the President and his administration by his segregation practices. First Protest The first big protest came against Speelman when it was learned that colored clerks in the office of the register of the Treasury were jim-crowed on the top floor of the building which houses his offices. The colored clerks were located on the most unfavorable side of this floor and were segregated from white clerks by means of a beaverboard wall. The elevator service was arranged so that there would be no contact between the two races, the colored clerks being required to go to work and leave 15 minutes earlier than the white clerks. The second protest, in which a number of white employees joined, was occasioned when Speelman sought to erect in the register's building, jim-crow tablets commemorating the men who had gone from that office into the world war and died in the service of their country. Speelman ordered two tablets, one for the whites and the other for the colored. When his trick was discovered at memorial exercises for the unveiling of the tablets, objections were so strenuous that a cardboard containing the names of all the men was put up in place of the bronze tablets and a single bronze tablet ordered instead. Angers His Betters There were other protests caused by his discrimination in the reduction of his office force. On each occasion when a reduction was to be made, a larger proportion of colored clerks was given potitions of dismissal. This aroused the ire of a number of influential members of Congress, who sought his official head. The appointment of Wood as his successor, however, holds little consolation to colored Republicans. Before the Harding administration a colored man held the job under Republican regimes. The late Charles Cottrell sought this plum, but the late President Harding turned him down. After Coolidge ascended to the presidency, it was thought that he would return to the custom of Harding's predecessors. Efforts to secure the appointment of a colored man were continually made, but always it was stated that there was no vacancy in the office. His failure to appoint a colored Republican when he declared a vacancy is disappointing to those in politics.

TEN Liberal Progressive Independent HONORARY DEGREES * Colleges and universities have the practice of conferring honorary degrees at commencement time on persons who have adorned learning, or rendered distinguished service in some calling making for human progress and welfare. This year has bought more than the usual crop of such degrees. They serve in some measure to compensate for the lack of titles of nobility which are prohibited by the constitution of the United States. This year Wilberforce University conferred honorary degrees upon Senator Simeon D. Fess of Ohio, and Mayor William Hale Thompson of Chicago. Is it not strange that some Negro institution of higher learning has not thought to give any honorary degree to Clarence Darrow? Surely his services have been of the character that warrant the bestowal of such an honor. DIMINISHING RECOGNITION The announcement of the appointment of Walter O. Wood, of Kansas, as register of the Treasury, in place of the present incumbent, H. V. Speelman, of Ohio serves as a reminder that as regards what is commonly called "official recognition" the Negro is a less significant factor in the Republican party than he was eighteen years ago, when President Taft appointed J. C. Napier to that office—the last Negro, by the way to fill it. The first Negro to hold the office of register of the Treasury was former United States Senator B. K. Bruce of Mississippi He was register during the administrations of Garfield and Arthur, and was appointed to that position again in 1898 by President McKinley, and died in office His successor was Judson W. Lyons of Georgia, who filled the office eight years, and was succeeded by William Tecumshi Vernon of Kansas, now a bishop of the A. M. E. Church. Mr. Napier succeeded Mr Vernon. It came to be considered as a foregone conclusion that, given a Republican administration, there would be a Negro register of the treasury. President Wilson sent the name of Adam Patterson of Oklahoma to the Senate for confirmation as register, but Patterson declined the nomination before the Senate took action. With the coming of the Harding administration, it became known that a Negro would not be named to that place. With the appointment of Wood, it would seem that the Republican party has adopted the policy of excluding Negroes from appointment as heads of bureaus in the executive departments, since there is no Negro bureau chief in ```markdown ``` Washington Tribune Published Weekly at Washington, D.C., by THE WASHINGTON POST PUBLISHING COMPANY, INC. 920 U Street, N.W., Phone, Potomac 1657 Entered as second-class matter July 7, 1922, at the Post Office at Washington, D.C., under the Act of March 3, 1823. any of these departments. Regardless of any merely partisan considerations, this is a step backward, and should give pause to all of our people capable of reasoning from facts to conclusions. The time has come when those of our group who have any influence upon the opinions and conduct of the masses of our people should show some real, fundamental, basic capacity for competent and unselfish leadership. HILLS EXHORTATION TO HUMILITY The commencement season of 1927 has ended. The subjects of great variety which are usually treated by, commencement orators have received if not new treatment, certainly cleaning and pressing; and, as presented on commencement day, had the appearance of being new, if they were not examined too critically. The inaugural address of Mordecai W. Johnson, on being formally inducted into the office of President of Howard University, is the outstanding commencement deliverance of the season in Washington in the schools for Negroes. It has eclipsed all other addresses. As a rule, the press gave no space to quotations, either direct or indirect, from these addresses. An exception was made in the case of the commencement address of Leslie Pinckney Hill, principal of the Cheyney Institute (Pa.), delivered at the closing exercises of the Dunbar High School. The Washington Post deemed Professor Hill's address of sufficient importance to put in a headline that "Cheyney Institute President Exhorts Students to Practice Humility." In its narrative of the exercises, the Post gave this paragraph to Professor Hill's address. Mr. Hill emphasized, as "the negro's contribution to the peace of the world," the practice of humility, not in the form of cowardice, but rather of the Gandhi type; open-mindedness, in realization of the brotherhood of man; spirituality and patriotism of musical expression, with the underlying principles of unity and hope, and a historical experience and background different from that of other American peoples. Whether this is a fair and accurate syllabus of the address, we do not know. It goes to the world, and will be accepted by the world, as such, until and unless exception is taken to it by Professor Hill himself. Professor Hill is a man of fine character and exceptional intellectual attainments. He is also a poet, a dreamer, a man of moods and visions, somewhat tinctured with the spirit of prophecy; a rather modest and shrinking sort of pacifist; a sensitive temperamentalist. Why he should feel that he should bring to young Negroes at commencement season an exhortation to humility is beyond the power of ordinary penetration and understanding. Humility is catalogued among the Christian virtues. The Negro is probably the best exemplar of humility we have in our American life today. He has been placed at the bottom of the social arrangement, and in the mass he does not rebel against that arrangement. Why then exhort him to humility? It was not the poor and oppressed to whom Jesus of Nazareth preached humility—not to Lazarus, but to Dives. It was not to the children of Israel that Moses recommended humility, but to Pharaoh. The Prophet Daniel recommended humility to Belshazzar, not to the Hebrews in captivity. The great, the powerful and the favored are in need of exhortations to this virtue to counteract the tendency to injustice and tyranny. In bringing the message of humility to the humble, Professor Hill was carrying coals to Newcastle, or rather we should say, anthracite to Pennsylvania. In other words, he was doing a needless, futile, empty thing. The Negro needs to be exhorted to get strength, power, knowledge; efficiency. After he gets these things, he may need to be exhorted to be humble, but not now. Two Kentuckians By Albert J. Bennett This is more truth than poetry. The author asserts that this is a true story—the form taken to tell the story is merely incidental. EDITOR. J. D. headed South in order to ply His skill whore others had been lucky; A. L. stacked his chance under northern sky. Though both were sons of old Kentucky. Although chips of the same state- ly tree, Yet, nothing in common did they approve, J. D.'s soul was steeped in sla- very. Freedom claimed A. L.'s love. J. D. fell out with the constitution, All its sacred precepts he assailed; He loathed its ideals and institutions— A. L. gleamed what its nulling entailed. A. L. tried to reason with J. D. But he said nothing that J. D. would heed. Scorning A. L. for a "fool Yankee." He doomed his pals to buzzard feed. Different in everything except They were products of a common soil. A. L. followed the Redeemer's footsteps— J. D. fought to live by others' toil. A. L.'s stand raised him to heights of fames, J. D.'s lowered him to degradation. "A.L." gleams midst the world's of fame, . D." flashes shame on a nation. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, JULY 1, 1927 J. D. thought A. L. was insane and weak, So he felt there were slight cause for blood, But A. L. proved, to be great, strong, yet meek— The rebel's darts he calmly withstood. And J. D. soon found out that his contract Called on him for more than a bloodless war; That A. L. would hold the law intact And not respect the Stars and Bars. In his schemes, J. D. banked on wrong and might To aid him in his rampant design; A. L. held steadfast to real human right. Portraying courage that was divine. J. D. hurled his hordes to be mown down By a nation with A. L. at its head; A man determined to hold his ground— True patriots marching forth till dead. J. D. believed in lust, pillage and crime. So, he urged his brutal cohorts on; But from the depths of rape's sickening slime, He begged A. L. to leave him alone. "To be left alone" was his dumb plea. Yet, he was trying hard to overthrow The government of real liberty, For his style of state—seed of woe! The nation's existence was held at stake Attacked by fierce vandals hard and strong. A. L. stuck to his guns for freedom's sake, Convincing J. D. that right downs wrong. A. L. maimed the rebel's brutal claws By holding up the ideals of the land. A full-fledge champion of liberty's cause, He routed J. D.'s savage band. A great towering bulwark stood A. L., Unmoved by state or the rebel's cries. Resolved first, last, and always to compel All foes to know what "Union" implies. Patriotism to all he imbued. High sense of duty sharpened his sword's blade. sword's blade. Nemesis of J. D. still subdued. That liberty's light should not fade. These men were partners in golden rod. Now, just why they never agree? Why one sought bondage; o erty? Did the South lock the mii J. D. On the prison which wrought lasting shame? Did the North inspire A. L. to b Freedom's death of deathless fame WARE'S HOTEL WEEK-END ' GUESTS Guests at Ware's Hotel for the last week-end were Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Oates, Mrs. Vivian St. Pelham, J. C. Mason, Mackaye L.

RECEIVES GOLD PIN FROM THE ENGLISH KING By Maurice Hill (12) Roland Hayes, thirty-eight years old, is the world's famous Negro tenor singer. He has toured Europe several times and has sung in important countries there. He has sung before King George of COURTWOOD THE COURTWOOD LANE LONDON LONDON England, who gave him a very valuable bin as a gift. He has also sung in Washington several time before and after he toured Europe and he also has sung in many states in this country. Hayes was born in northern Georgia. He worked in the fields until he was fifteen years old. He sent himself through preparatory school at Fisk University and later he studied music in Boston. His father died when he was twelve years old and his mother died about a year ago. I think he deserves much credit for being such a great and wonderful singer.

In an effort to simplify the "where-to-go" and "where-to-stay" problem, The Tribune has compiled a list of recommended resort hotels and cottages in various parts of the country for its readers and friends. These places are located in nearly every clime and section. They afford the prospective vacationist or the week-ender, excellent places for rast or entertainment. Summer time is naturally vacation time. Thousands of people journey from place to place in search of contentment, rest and a change of scenery. When people can enjoy a good bed to sleep in and palatable meals with congenial and healthful surroundings, and with an atmosphere that suits their tastes, the chances are that they will enjoy their vacation. ber of people traveling, hundreds of places for the entertainment of the tourist and vacationist have come into being. It is now possible for one to go anywhere his mood dictates and find comfortable housing and entertainment facilities. Where to find such places has long been the bugbear of the vacationist. Many people have refrained from going on vacations because they could not find the kind of place they wanted to go to. Many people who have wanted to go on week-end trips, have stayed at home because they knew of no places close by they could motor to. Through its Travel and Vacation Service Bureau, The Tribune will assist persons desiring its services, in finding the kind of place in the section where they want to spend their vacation. If places are not listed in The Tribune, the management will endeavor to obtain the desired information. This bureau is for the free use of the public.

LUCAS NEW YORK RESIGNS FROM HOWARD FOUR (Continued from page 1) dissolve the injunction against the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. The judge took the position that a law cannot be repealed or an injunction dissolved by its violation. Ohio Injunction During the hearing it developed that there is also an injunction against the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks in the State of Ohio. Upon an inquiry from Judge Runyon as to whether the grand lodge would hold its 1927 session in Cleveland in violation of this injunction, Grand Legal Adviser Howard told him that if that injunction is still existing he would recommend to the Grand Exalted Ruler that the convention be held in some state where there is no injunction against the order and would suggest the city of Newark, M.J. Elks in the court room interpreted this remark to mean that in the event the injunction in New York state is not dissolved or New York Elks fail to meet the conditions proposed, the grand lodge session will be held in Newark instead of Cleveland. The injunction suit was brought by Manhattan and Monarch Lodges, Thomas Brown, exalted ruler of Imperial lodge, and Dr. Hudson J. Oliver, chairman of the grand lodge entertainment committee. It was filed in the United States district court for New Jersey. Justice Runyon on June 23 cited the defendants, Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson and Grand Secretary Bates, to show cause Monday why an injunction should not be issued restraining the holding of the meeting in any other city than New York. In the meantime, the grand lodge, its officers, Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson and Grand Secretary Bates were restrained from doing any acts whatsoever which may in any way lead to the holding of the convention elsewhere than in New York City. In their bill of complaint New York Ellks charged Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson, Commissioner of Education William C. Hueston, Grand Legal Adviser Howard, and Grand Trustees Edward, Berry, Dr. D. T. Cardwell, R. A. Pharrow, John R. Marshall and Wayland Wilkerson, conspired to change the place of meeting from New York City. The basis for this conspiracy, the plaintiffs alleged, was the lucriveness of the offices of these Grand Lodge officers. These officers, the plaintiffs said, were determined that nothing should transpire which would cause them to lose their respective positions. Because of the high handed manner in which they had administered the affairs of the grand lodge, it was charged, these officers had aroused the opposition of various subordinate lodges in New York City, and fearing their chances of being reelected in New York City, they began to act to prevent the convention from taking place in New York City. In their answer the defendants contended that the selection of New York City as the next meeting place of the grand lodge was conditioned upon the promise of Dr. Oliver that New York Elks would have the Gratton law repealed and the injunction against the order dissolved. Conspiracy Denied The charge of conspiracy in order to continue present lodge officers in office was denied. The plaintiffs were represented Schenck, New York City, and J A. Taylor, Newark, N.J., and John Clifford Hawkins, Pope E. Billups and Frances E. Rivers. The defendants were represented by two white attorneys, A. T. Perry W. Howard, Grand Legal Adviser; Eugene Haynes, Asbury Park, N.J.; S. A. T. Watkins, Chicago, III.; L. G. Jordan, Elizabeth City, N.J.; L. R. Mehlinger, Washington, D.C.; and Oliver Randolph, Newark.

Mrs. Marie Marie Marshall, president, Mrs. I. N. Ross, honorary president. Clarence E. Lucas, after a service of nineteen years in the financial department of Howard University has severed his connection with that institution. Effective July 1, Mr. Lucas will be connected with the investment department of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company of this city. Through , an apprenticeship served in New York City, Mr. Lucas moved steadily forward to a position with George Foster Peabody, international banker, treasurer of the general education board and director in numerous other institutions in New Yok City and elsewhere. This position he gave up in 1908 to serve as a bookkeeper at Howard University. [Name] CLARENCE E. LUCAS Passing from bookkeeper to head bookkeeper, Mr. Lucas rose to the office of assistant treasurer and chief accountant in 1919. He installed, and with the aid of competent assistants, so developed all the accounting systems of the university as to bring and keep them abreast of the steady advancement of the institution generally. This work included the handling of the general, student and endowment fund accounts, all to the entire satisfaction of the university officials, of the interior department and of the exacting certified public accountants from New York whose annual audit was invariably followed by a certificate of accuracy. Makes Statement Approached by a representative of the Tribune, Mr. Lucas said: "The ties knitted during nineteen years at Howard University are broken necessarily with feelings of regret. At Howard University my policy was one of courteous cooperation all along the line from the greatest to the least, with due regard to the feelings of the humblest. I shall never know any other policy." Having enjoyed uniformly cordial relations with the high officials, the deans and professors and the students during the administrations of four presidents, Mr. Lucas is the recipient of expressions from many friends both in and out of the University of regret at his leaving and congratulations upon the larger opportunity now offered him. Mr. Lucas, his wife and their two daughters live at 143 S street. "WITH ALL THY GETTING" By Nannie H. Burroughs (In "The Southern Workman"— July Issue) "The Negro race is a child race." This fact has been repeated by the late Booker T. Washington. A child race ought to be taught to put first things first. The cultivation of divine gifts—things of the spirit—is first in the building of individuals and races. The Negro is highly endowed with things of the spirit—love, forebearance, gentleness, meekness, forgiveness, hope, song, faith—but he is not cultivating them. Gifts of the spirit are made to races for three fundamental purposes: to enable them to lift themselves, by their own boot straps as it were; to lay secure foundations on which to build materially; and to make valuable contributions to world progress, independent of, but conjointy with other races. The first thing for a race to learn is the value of gifts of the spirit and how to use them. These gifts develop moral stamina, self-respect, independence, and courage within, and secure respect from without. Thus panoplied, races face great tasks and march to battle unafraid. The Negro has undermined his spiritual and moral vitality, by cultivating an insatiable love for the material at the expense of higher virtues. As a result, he sits authentic and paralytic before his great moral tasks. The fact is, the Negro and his credulous friends have done too much bragging about his material progress. He brags about what he owns, but he goes to others for what he needs. The time spent in bragging should have been given to the development of qualities of soul. Despite his bragging "something" inside of the Negro tells him that he is not putting on the right arm. Despite his superficial display of things material, he heads the receiving line before philanthropists for gifts for his uplift. Complete absorption of thought, time, and strength to the acquisition of material things. spells moral death and spiritual death to any race. The Negro in his puerile state of mind is conjured into believing that things—houses, land, bank accounts, second-hand knowledge, and rights—will get him a place of power in this material civilization. They will not. He cannot catch up with the Anglo-Saxon materially, but he can catch up with him spiritually and morally. If progress is to be measured in physical materials and dollars and brains, in themselves, the Negro will be — by comparison, for centuries — contemptibly poor. Why, there is an automobile manufacturer in Detroit and a mail-order house market in Chicago who could buy everything which the race owns and then have enough money left to keep on producing cars and mailing clothes. One rubber-tire manufacturer in Ohio has done more by the use of his brains to keep the Negro moving physically, than the Negro has done for himself in that particular. But where is the Negro going and what is he going to do when he gets there? That's the question. Despite the fact that the race is travelling at high speed materially, it cannot get within hailing distance of the route that has a thousand years' lead of him in material things. The Anglo-Saxon, on his own nerve, initiative, and inventions has stopped riding and gone flying. The Negro has no plane, but he can soar in spirit. That is what the Anglo-Saxon did first. That is how he got the plane. The Negro must use it is brains to supply some vital needs. This civilization is in great need of gifts of the spirit, but has no material want which it cannot satisfy. In fact, America will destroy herself and revert to barbarian if she continues to cultivate the things of the flesh and neglect the higher virtues. The Negro must not, therefore, contribute to her doom, but must ransom her. Furthermore, it will profit that Negro nothing to enter into ungodly competition for material possessions when he has gifts of greater value. The most valuable contribution which he can make to American civilization must be made out of his spiritual endowment. He must do it in self-defense, and in defense of America. She needs it. Without it she will never dispense justice, and will be consumed by her own folly and wrath. The Negro has helped save erica physically several times. He must make a larger contribution to her spiritual salvation. Who knows but that the divine purpose for bringing him into this country was that, in due time, he might make just such a contribution. The tragedy in this problem-solving enterprise is that the Negro is not being taught the tremendous achieving power of his virtues. He is not being taught to glorify what he is. When he learns that he has the leaven that is needed in this American lump, he will put it in. In other words, he will proceed to use his spiritual powers and give new meaning and proper evaluation to the Beatitudes, and at the same time, give new impetus to the development of a real Christian civilization. When the Negro learns what manner of man he is spiritually, he will wake up all over. He will stop playing white, even on the stage. He will rise in the majesty of his own soul. He will glorify the beauty of his own brown skin. He will stop thinking white and go to thinking straight and living right. He will realize that wrong reaching, wrong bleaching, and wrong mixing have "most nigh ruin't hinn" and he will redeem his body and rescue his soul from the bondage of that death. The final values of races are computed almost entirely in terms of high ideals and noble purposes lived up to. Jesus told his ambitious, materialistic disciples that the kingdom — the glory which they craved — is not here and it is not there—it is within you. In other words, it is not what you have but what you are inside of yourself that counts. I believe it is the Negro's sacred duty to spiritualize American life and popularize his own color instead of worshiping the color (or lack of color) of another race. it can be done in Negro life, in pictures, in plays, in books, in spirit, if the Negro would spend as much time glorifying his own character as he now spends imitating the color and foibles of the white race. The Negro can become the most beloved and the most lovely race in the world. His happy spirit and varied hue make him the very spice of life among other races. No race is richer in soul quality and color than the Negro. Some day he will realize it and glorify them. He will popularize the The Negro can actually use the bathtub, the Bible, and the broom—weapons and emblems of health, righteousness, and industry, and make of himself and his environment things of loveliness and beauty. It is within him—within his grasp—within his power—within his group. If he uses them religiously the race will "rise and shine." God wants to help the Negro work out his own salvation. The Negro need not be skeptical as to the outcome, because the Almighty is at His best when He is working with an individual or race to prove that the weapons of His warfare are not carnal, but spiritual. If I were a Negro preacher, looking for a text for a timely sermon to preach to the entire race, I would paraphrase and analyze Solomon's wisdom-getting advice and make it read: "Get education—but with all your getting—get common sense. Get clothes—but with all your getting—get clean. Get houses—but with all your getting—get homes. Get stores—but with all your getting—get standards. Get your rights—but with all your getting—get right." Preachers, teachers, leaders and welfare workers ought to address themselves to the supreme task of be land,owm aerial He gle- teaching the entire race to glorify what it has—its face (its color); its place (its homes and communities); its grace (its spiritual endowment). If the Negro does it, there is no earthly force that can stay him. returning to the city Miss Br will visit New York.

(Preston News Service)—Samuel French, Incorporated, New York and London publishers, have signed a contract to publish "Plumes," a one act play by Georgia Douglass Johnson. This play received first prize in the recent "Opportunity" magazine contest. Appleton and Co., New York, are bringing out two one-act plays by Negro writers in a collection called "Fifty more contemporary one-acts plays." "Blue Blood" by Georgia Douglass Johnson and another play by Willis Richardson of Washington, D. C., are in this collection. Both of these writers have won prizes offered by the "Crisis" and "Opportunity" magazines. Boston, New York, Washington and Cleveland have presented some very interesting one-act play programs and the call for them is becoming insistent and strong. Negro life is intensely dramatic and an intelligent handling of themes universal in appeal is proving most attractive and popular. J. L. RENO SCHOOL Last week was known as lunchon week at the J. L. Reno School and the celebration, taking the shape of a series of luncheons tendered by members of the faculty, was the outstanding social feature. Those who took part were the Misses Tibbs, Fortune, Brent, Lomax, Moore, and Mrs. Eaddy. The address by Miss E. F. G. Merritt, supervising principal to the graduating class of the Reno School, was well received. Miss E. F. G. Merritt stressed the fact that young women should wear more common sense clothing, scoring high heels and low necks. She urges that mothers pay more attention to these things and keep a closer watch over the conduct of their children. The speaker was presented with a bouquet of roses. Miss V. M. Tibbs, the principal, will spend the summer at Bedford, Pa., and the Blue Ridge Mountains, Va. Miss M. E. Brent, of the kindergarten department, leaves shortly for Tuskegee, Ala.

ZION BISHOPS OK UNION (Contiued from page 1) a majority of these annual and quarterly conferences and congregations approve the plan, a special General Conference will be called possibly in 1930 to work out the final details preparatory to the organization of the first regular United General Conference in 1932. This movement is regarded by many as the biggest concerted organization effort ever undertaken by Negroes. Fully one and a half million members will be involved. The transaction will affect over 10,000 individual church organizations representing a real estate value of nearly $36,000,000, and involving the handling of nearly $7,000,000 annually. The territorial scope of the organization is worldwide including the United States, Canada, Mexico, South America, Africa, and the islands of the Sea. The proposed merger is one of the biggest pieces of legal business ever executed by Negroes. The handling of various individual church charters, tranferring deeds and property rights of the two organizations into the new one offers Negro lawyers throughout the world unprecedented legal work. The Commission The men composing the commission on organic church union are regarded as the best minds of the two church connections. They are: For A. M. E. Church—Bishop J. Albert Johnson, Bishop A. J. Carey, Bishop John Hurst, Rev A. J. Wilson, Rev R. S. Jenkins, Rev H. K. Spearman, W. C. Hueston, and Dr. John R. Hawkins. For A. M. E. Zion Church—Bishop J. C. Caldwell, Bishop G. C. Clement, Bishop L. W. Kyle, Rev F. W. Riley, Rev W. A. Blackwell, Rev R. R. Ball, Prof W. T. Trent and Prof J. W. Michelberger. 'On the question of unification the A. M. E. and the A. M. E. Zion churches have progressed much more rapidly and further than has the M. E. and M. E. church (south) in their unity effort. It is recalled that the outstanding feature in the unification of the African Methodists is in the name—United Methodist Episcopal. In the name every phase of the platform is broad enough to include all Negro Methodists. The name is not confined to race or country. The door stands wide open and invites all. Proposed Episcopal Districts Tentative proposed districts of the United Methodist Episcopal Church are: First district—part of Philadelphia conference of A. M. E. and Philadelphia and Baltimore of A. M. E. Z.; New York Conference, part of New York conference of A. M. E. and A. M. E. Z. Cumberland Valley Conference—part of Philadelphia A. M. E. and Philadelphia and Baltimore of A. M. E. Z. Second district—New Jersey to be divided into North, Central and Southern conferences, to be made up by combining the work of both churches in New Jersey. Delaware Conference—to be composed of all A. M. E. and part of Philadelphia and Baltimore of A. M. E. Z. Third district:—Baltimore Conference—Maryland and District of Columbia, made up of part of Philadelphia and Baltimore of A. M. E. Z., and Baltimore of A. M. E.; Eastern Shore, Md. Northern Virginia and Southern Virginia conferences, made up by combining all Virginia in both churches and part of Eastern Tennessee and Virginia of A. M. E. Z. Fourth district:—Ohio, North Ohio and Central Conferences—made up by combining work of both churches in Ohio and part of Michigan in A. M. E. Z. Fifth district:—Western Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh and West Virginia conferences—Allegheny in both churches, part of Ohio of A. M. E. and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and West Virginia of A. M. E. Z. Sixth district:—Chicago Conference—made up of A. M. E. and part of Michigan of A. M. E. Z. North West Conference—made up Northwest of A. M. E. Illinois, Conference—made up of Illinois of both churches. Seventh and Eighth districts:—Combine the work in South Carolina of both churches, and make two districts. Ninth and Tenth districts:—Combine all work of both churches in Missouri. All of A. M. E. in Kansas; part of Missouri of A. M. E. Z. All of Nebraska, and Colorado. Eleventh and Twelfth districts:—Combine all work of both churches in North Carolina, and make in Twenty-ninth district:—Combine all work in West Africa. Thirtieth district:—Combine all work in South Africa. Further explanation of the details in connection with the general offices and departments will be discussed in a subquent article.

Howard University alumni regard the re-employment of Dr. Locke as a vindication of their fight in behalf of Dr. Locke, Alonformer assistant professor of mathematics; Metz T. P. Lochard, ormer assistant professor of French, and Orlando C. Thornton, former instructor in finance and business organization, whose services were discontinued June 30, 1925. Scholar and Author The trustees decided to dismiss these professors in accordance with recommendations made to them by Robert Josselyn Leonard, director of the school of education, teachers' college, Columbia university, who made a survey of the academic departments of Howard university. He recommended a program of retrenchment. Dr. Locke is a former. Rhodes scholar and an author. He sailed from New York Saturday to make a first-hand study of the work of the League of Nations in African reconstruction with particular reference to the administration of the African mandates. His investigation is under the auspices of the Foreign Policy Association and is made possible by a grant from the Pauline Wells McCabe Memorial Fund. Dr. Locke will be accredited as an observer to the Commission on Native Labor and the Permanent Mandates Commission of the League of Nations, which will be in session in Geneva in July and in September during the meeting of the League Assembly.

Joe Harris served them up for the losers. ‘The game got off to an interest- ing start. For five innings neither team was able to shake the other, and the score tied at 4 all up to that time saw several vain thrusts by both teams to gain the upper hand. In the fourth inning with the score 4-3 Kenner, Ledroit Tiger captain, playing short for the Treasury team connected for the cireuit, and deadlocked the score Eddie Barner, next batter, met the first ball pitched to him and sent it in the same direction as Ken- ner’s drive, but this ‘time, Tiny Hansborough, stellar G. P. O. left- fielder made ‘a running back hand stab to present what was, in all probability, another homer. Tn the same frame, with Eddy on ahead of him Davis met one of Harris’ shoots and shot it on a Tine past the box. Keng. raced over and speared the drive With one hand for an easy double killing. After the fifth inning, however, there was Thorary to it. The Printers lambasted Harris and Bar- ner, his te ‘at will while Brown toyed with his adversaries. Faunt- roy; the G. P. 0. speed merchant met one of the ex-Teddy Bear's deliveries squarely on the nose and sent it hopping to left center. He rounded the bases before the pill was returned to the infield. On Saturday, August 6, The Washington Tribune in conjune- tion with Tommy Hughes an Ralph Wright, lifeguards at the Howard Pool, ‘will stage a swim- ming tournament which will be open to all swimmers, of all ages. Valuable prizes will be awarded the winners, and the whole affair should arouse no little enthusiasm. ‘A similar meet was held in 1922 by this paper, and at that time Sam Baker seemed to dominate. Since then no further attempts have been made in this connec- tion. ‘A host of spectators were pres- ent to see a.large number of en- tries compete.

BALTIMORE, Mé., June 26— Ben Taylor's Baltimore Black Sox kept up their winning pace by gaining a double verdict over the Brooklyn Royals here today. The first game was a 18-12 slugfest, the second a forfeiture of 9-0. In the matinee game, it was merely a case where the Royals played the worse. ‘The Black Sox did not outplay their rivals, their rivals outplayed themselves. The second game was forfeited to ithe locals when. the | Royals walked off the field. ‘In the sixth inning with the seore tied 6-6, Smith walked, and when Hudspeth grounded to Jackson, Brown cov- ered for 2 force play, Smith was foreed, but when Brown attempted to throw to first to complete the double play, he was interfered with by Smith. Cromwell ruled both runners out. Manager Red- ding objected and refused to re- sume play. Umpire Spencer a- warded the contest to Taylor's lan. 9-0.

Hill and Dickens were the hurlers and while the former allowed fewer hits and gained the verdict the Black Barons obtained 11 strike-outs. Smith, the Soldier's first baseman, led the batters with 4 hits one for the circuit in 5 times at bat. He also stole two bases. The game was played in 1 hour and 21 minutes. War Col.

Army ..... 112 300 101-9 Black Barons ..... 120 010-4 MYRTLES SPLIT WITH GIANTS, ENTER PROTEST MYRTLES SPLIT WITH GIANTS, ENTER PROTEST The Myrtle Athletics divided their double bill with the Washington Giants last Sunday. The first game went to Bob Jackson's team, 14-5, while the Giants took the 9-8 nightcap. The latter game was protracted by the Myrtle management. According to the version told the Tribune reporter, by the Myrtles they were robbed of a good chance to win, when Umpire Barber stopped the game, after, with none out in the last half of the ninth, Barner had doubled to center. The score stood 9-8 at the close of the eighth inning. The Giants scored in their half of the frame which made the count, 10-8. Jackson's team came in for their last wraps, and Barner first batter doubled to center, Manager Barber of the Giants rushed out to Umpire Barber, it is alleged, and put in a request for halting the game or the grounds that it was too dark. The claim was allowed and the request granted. While the umpire will most likely be upheld if the protest is ever considered by the league heads, it does not seem strange that it should become suddenly too dark to play. There is a certainty that some evidence of the fast-approaching darkness must have been noticeable at the end of the eighth inning, yet the umpire allowed the contest to continue. From questioning the source of information the reporter learned that the second game did not get under way until after 6 o'clock which is by no means ample time to play a nine-inning game before darkness. On the other hand, the Washington Giants claim that there were no grounds for the Myrtle protest. Well, a fast ball pitcher with terrific speed was pitching, according to the Giant version, and Umpire Barber is said to have considered it too dangerous as well as too dark to proceed with the game. The Tribune view is that an agreement should have been made to play a 7-inning game for the nightcap.

STATE PETERSBURG, Virginia, June—Graduates, students and friends of the Virginia State College are happy over the appointment of Harold D Martin as Director of Physical Education here. Mr. Martin is no stranger to the athletic world. He is a graduate of Norwich University where he won his letter in five sports. He was a star in football, basketball, baseball, track and ice hockey. For three years, 1921-22-23 he was director of athletics at Virginia Union University where the football teams he coached won the C. I. A. A. championship in 1922 and 1924, and was runner up in 1923. Leaving Union University in 1924 he was appointed athletic director at Shaw University where in 1926 the team coached by him won the C. I. A. A. Tennis championship. His basketball team won the 1927 Association title. Mr. Martin's ability to handle men and develop winning teams has brought him forward as one of the leading coaches in the C. I. A. A. for the past six years. He is now at Cambridge, Mass., where he is spending his third summer in the Harvard School of Physical Education. MONTALVOSTARS IN LINGOLN WIN Alonzo Montalvo, probably the most widely known figure in colored baseball today, and the reason for the Lincoln Giants' withdrawal from the Eastern Colored League, proved his worth in the double bill with Al Santop's Philadelphia Broncos in New York last Sunday. The stellar outfielder from Cuba hit 2 homers and a single in the first game and drove in 4 runs with 2 hits in the second fracas. His second circuit clout coming in the eighth inning with the score tied, won the first game for his mates. Mason was on second at the time. The extent of damage Montalvo did to the offerings of the Bronco pitchers amounted to 5 hits in 7 times at bat.

TOGANS BARELY WIN Out on the Ivy City diamond last Sunday afternoon the Togans met the Diamond K's, and the exciting meeting ended in a 6-5 victory for the former. Williams on the hill for the Togan crowd proved too tough a nut for the Diamonds to crack. He sent 10 aliens back after having met nothing more substantial than the ozone. The 5 hits he allowed were kept fairly well scattered. The tilt was full of excitement and, until Gross singled in the final frame with the bases loaded to drive in the two runs which brought the Togans from behind to win, the result was always in doubt. These two nines are members of the Washington Tribune Baseball League and will be seen in action next Sunday in their respective opening games in that loop.

Sr. It is rumored that there will be only one colored show on the Columbia burlesque wheel next season. Of course, this is not authentic, but I gathered this from very reliable sources. That being the case, what will become of the colored actors or shows that do not play the T. O. B. A.? Of course, there are a few acts that can play the white vaudeville circuits, but a very few. Now then we find ourselves going back or losing ground. What is the next best step to take, since we do not care to lose our prestige or position in the show business? When I see all of these complications arising it gives me the impression that I am right when I say make colored pictures for the avenues that are closed against us on the stage. That is the solution to the problem; it will still leave us the screen to work on. I regret to say that the actor of today does not prepare for tomorrow, and if someone does not pro- G. BYARS. Mgr.

Become a booster for colored pictures; and not only a booster but be ready to become part owner of a million- We want to see beautiful colored pictures of a higher class, written by our own people who know more about ourselves than the white man does. We went to see beautiful colored women on the screen who can act. We want to see fine looking colored men of our race drawing large salaries. It can be done with your support. Without it, we fail. I hope to have some valuable information to give soon. We are gradually getting together to start the ball rolling. Be prepared to get behind the ball and do your bit by pushing it on to success. I again appeal to some of our writers of articles to comment and help boost the proposition or knock it if you think it is not a good idea. Such writers as Sylvester Russel, Salem Tut Whitney, Tim Ouseley, Jonsey, Tony Langston, Jack Cooper, Dave Payton, and "Billboard" Jackson, and many others who are better writers than I are asked to give their ideas along this line. I think D. Irland Thomas is a great critic on pictures as well as a good writer. So why not let us read your views of the probabilities of colored pictures. It is not only an investment to make money, but race pride should put such a corporation over. I can't do it. You can't do it, but we as a race unit can do it. So let us do it.

He is a headliner, broadcasting over WLW, Cineinnati. He is also a Gennett recording artist. The first two records he made for the Starr talking machine records were "The Defunct Treasurer," and "Brother Noah."

After broadcasting a recent prois a headliner, broadcasting over many cards and letters of fan mail, urging him to devote his time exclusively to radio. He claims, however, that he believes his programs are much more effective by personal appearance, despite the applause of radio audience fans, and for that reason he will not take up radio entertainment exclusively. His numbers include sermons on "Adam and Eve," "Old Black Joe," and the reading of a letter purporting to be from "Brother Bill." ZETA PHI BETA SORORITY HOLDS REGIONAL MEET ZETA PHI BETA SORORITY HOLDS REGIONAL MEET At the annual conclave of the Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, which met in Chicago, December, 1926, the national officers planned to hold regional conferences during each year. The first regional conference for this year was held here, June 19-21, at which time the following national officers were present: Mrs. Ruth T. Scruggs, national "WHOM SHALL I MARRY?" with WANDA HAWLEY and MARY CARR Talent. at 5:30, 7:30 and 9:30 president of Buffalo, New York; Dr. R.

Cary, national honorary member, Atlanta Ga., and Miss Arizona Cleaver, founder of the Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, of Hannibal, Mo. The conference formally convened on Sunday, June 19, at 8 p. m. in the Rose Room of the W. Y. C. A. At this time the national president, Mrs. Scruggs, delivered a wonderful address in which she emphasized the valuable service that sorority women may render in the home, school, church, and community. Business Sessions The business sessions were held on Monday and Tuesday, June 20 and 21, at 10 a.m., at the Zeta Phi Beta Sorority House, 601 Howard place, northwest. As Zeta Phi Beta is the first sorority to sponsor the "Finer Womanhood" movement, it was with pride and enthusiasm that the members planned a big universal celebration of "Finer Womanhood Week" for this coming February, which will mark the seventh annual celebration of this event. Plans were also perfected for the 1927 conclave to be held in Richmond, Va. The national president reported that so far this year two new chapters for Zeta have been organized this year at Wilberforce and Raleigh, N. C., respectively. On Monday evening, June 20, the visiting sorors were entertained at the residence of Miss Beatrice Catlett, 943 S street, northwest. Tokens of esteem were presented each visitor. At this time, mention was made of the activities of some Zeta members. Mrs. Anne Malone, a national honorary member, donated $10,000 to the Howard University Medical School Fund. Miss Charlotte Corbin, a graduate from Howard University, June, 1927, received the degree of A.B. in education, Magna Cum Laude. Miss Mary Price another Zeta girl graduated with the degree of A.B. in education, Cum Laude, and won an $800 fellowship to the University of Cincinnati. Miss Carbin and Miss Price are both members of Alpha Chapter. "Finer Womanhood" As a result of this conference those present were greatly inspired to continue the program of Zeta; namely, scholarship service, and "Finer Womanhood."

A more beautiful act has not been staged at the Lincoln since it started the policy of tha weekly stage attrac- tions, But not only were the costumes beautiful, but the act itself is worth commendation. Broomfield is becoming an artist in the Rus- sian dance, and though he does not have the voice of a Caruso or & McCormick, yet he has that stage personality which enables him to put his songs over with success. | Miss Seven. of course, cannot be described otherwise than graceful and nifty. The same team worked the How. ard Theatre during the week of May 23, and were a big hit there. ee just finished an eneagement at the Royal Theatre in Baltimore ‘last week, Irving C, Miller, probably having run out of plots’ and themes for his many shows, sent a, “cireus” to the Howard Theatre this week —but it’s a good circus. There are a number of acts on the bill in the “All Nations’ Revue” which no doubt have seen action on the bigtime circuits during the main part of this season, for they are really first class. ‘Take the Japanese musical quar- tette. Could you find a better com- bination of string-instrument play- ers? Not only are they able to bring the music out of their boxes, but ‘they can do it in every kind of trick fashion. Imagine a man getting music out of © saw with & violin bow, oF playing a violin while it is reversed and placed be- tween his legs. And these fellows |were not limited to. jazz music, jcither. Their rendition of the over. ture from “Poet and Peasant” was indeed pleasing. ‘Then think of the tumblers. Such flipping and turning in. the air is enough to make one dizzy, What, oh, what, would happen if one of those flips were not completed? Oh, my, my, my; But since they were all completed without mishap, I suppose we are forced to con- clude that the boys knew what they were doing. F And, need I remind you of the act of the two girls, who were an Imounced as coming from Austra: — . NINw ey Their suppleness and daring were to be marveled at. But, oh, how would you like to displease the young lady who por- toyed the means a girl has of self-defense by use of jiujitsu holds, and have her demonstrate on you? Oh, my, my, my! | Well, so much for ‘the part of the show which purposes to br |from foreign lagds. Now for the more or less American part.

He portrayed som¢ keen steps. | Margaret Simms, the good-look- ing little singor, though better ir looks thasi in song, made a hit with the audience. She sang several beautiful numbers and deemed to put. them over well. ‘The chorus, however, must hava jbeen just slammed together the night before the show opened, for the girls seemed to have been in deed’ of tore, Teheureae: Bot ever, since the show was one of a number of separate acts, rather than having a theme in which tho chorus girls would have a definite part, it was not made much the [worse for it. | Oh, yes, I almost forgot to men- tion that Newman, the dancing kid, . ‘a Washington boy. | Jimmie Johnson was just as good as ever at the Broadway Theater | this Week.
