After their appointment, they sold the property about April 12, 1926, at auction for $99,000 to the Most Worshipful Acacia Grand Lodge, F.A.A.M. In settlement of the purchase, the buyers paid $33,000 in cash and gave two promissory notes of $33,000 dated April 12, 1926. They were payable in one and two years.

DEPT., IS REPORT Despite statements made last week by Judge Finney, acting secretary of the Department of Interior, that "we are not segregating colored people down there" an investigation discloses the fact that colored people are being segregated and have been for some time. Even the four examiners who were returned to their former room were given desks beside each other. The files department which was established and placed in charge of colored employees with a chief and two assistants, is in itself a segregated department. The following statement was made to the Washington Tabula, by a citizen who conducted a complete independent investigation of the Interior Department: "If you were made to believe that the re-organization in the department was not planned with a view to segregation you were greatly misled by the diplomatic manner in which such matters are handled and discussed with those who attempt to destroy this damnable practice. Contact with Whites "I shall cite for you instances of absolute, and so far successful, attempts to segregate colored employees."

In his speech, Mr. Daniels told his audience that "the world is more open-minded today than it has ever been before. A great cause is almost sure of a fair hearing. . . . To change the mind of the world on any question, three things are important: a righteous cause, education and organization. No cause should succeed unless it be righteous." Mr. Daniels said he believed that the colored group have a righteous cause. Continuing he said, "But a righteous cause and organization are not enough, the facts must be assembled and convincingly arrayed. Then they must be persuasively presented. "By what they have accomplished, people and nations are rated. "I have been astonished to find that even among the colored group there is no full realization of its great ancestry," declared Mr. Daniels in calling attention to the fact that the Negro greatly neglects his own history. "You have a wonderful story to tell," he declared and continuing said, "the telling of it is your righteous cause." He declared that the race needed more advertising. "We are all salesmen, my friends—nations, people and individuals. . . If you sell the world on what you are, as proven by what you have done, I prophecy that your hopes and expectations shall be realized, but you have a great campaign ahead of you, one of great and absorbing interest." ```markdown ``` Washington Tribune Relatives Claim Late Robt. J. Bowler Fraudulently Mortgaged Property HIGHLAND BEACH CITIZENS MAKING VALIANT FIGHT TO KEEP SEA SHORE EXCLUSIVE FOR 'SOCIALLY PROMINENT' HOWARD GETS NEW ACCOUNTANT This little village is becoming the Monte Carlo of Chesapeake Bay with its beach being as exclusive as Bailey's Beach at Southhampton where only aristocracy may play. Prior to the invasion of the smarter set this was a summer colony of families desiring to have their children enjoy fresh air and sunshine. Now it has become a social center, drawir, the elite from Washington and Baltimore. Gambling among the fashionable set is said to run openly at one of the hotels. The women play bridge for so much a point. The men play black jack and stud poker. Like the Casino at Monte Carlo, the house gets its cut but the municipality gets no pay. But if you are not of the smart set you are denied these pastimes. In fact, you are not wanted at this hotel. In order to enter the corporate limits of his summer resort you must be on your way to visit some o fits residences or you must have reservations at one of its two hotels. Anyone who is visiting any of the residents or stopping at either of the hotels is permitted the use of the beach. Folks are met beyond the corporate limits by either the town constable or one of the five commissioners. The army command is given, "Halt! Who goes there?" When you are told to advance and be recognized, if you meet the qualifications, you may proceed to the cottage where you are to be a guest. If you do not, you are turned away. The five commissioners hold that they have absolute control over the streets within the corporate limits of this village. They say hat they can prevent the use Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president of Howard University, has approved the appointment of Edmund C. WARD, new assistant to treasurer at Howard University. mund D. Ward, 40 years old, of New York City, as assistant to the treasurer and chief accountant at Howard University. Mr. Ward comes to Howard as successor to of its streets by any person, declared undesirable by them. A white man owns some property adjoining Highland Beach property. He desires to sell lots to colored persons. Notice has been served by th former owner of Highland Beach that persons buying lots from this white man will not be permitted to use the beach here. The reason is given that the sale of this property by the white man cannot be restricted as is the property at Highland Beach. The road leading into Highland Beach passes through this white man's property. He says that if persons to whom he sells lots cannot use the beach here, he will not permit the use of the road over his property into the summer resort. Exclusive Colony In the meantime, in order to still keep Highland Beach exclusive, an effort is being made to buy this man's property in its entirety and then divide it into lots and sell only to those who can qualify for membership in this summer colony. And the ordinary people, hoi polloi, who wish to bathe in Cheapeake Bay, must find some other point, unless they wish to test the power of the commissioners to prevent the use of the roads in this town by persons who do not come as the guests of some residents here. The town is an incorporated village and is controlled by a board of commissioners and a mayor. Residents of Washington are the property owners. Since the incorporation of the village, it has had numerous fights over civic problems. First, they fought the building of a hotel, catering to the general public; then the matter of widening the streets and cutting down some trees; now the effort is to keep out persons declared undesirable by some of the citizens. C. E. Lucas, who has resigned With a background of training and experience he should admirably fit him for the exacting position at Howard to which he has been appointed. Mr. Ward was trained in accounting at Columbia University, New York City, and has been engaged in the practice of public accounting in the great metropolis during the past five years. Leaving Jacksonville, Florida, his former home, in July 1918, where he was employed as cashier in a banking institution, of New York City, he secured a position with the Public National Bank of New York City, 116th street and Madison avenue, where he has remained during the past nine years, working his way up from a place as utility clerk to head bookeeper. Mr. Ward was the only colored man holding such a position in New York City with a banking institution and the authorities at Howard University are congratulating themselves upon securing the services of a man so well trained and with such splendid experience for service in the office of Doctor Scott, the secretary-treasurer at Howard University. For a time, Mr. Ward was a member of the bookkeeping staff of the Chelsea Exchange Bank. 155th street, New York City, but resigned to resume his duties at the Public National Bank of that city. Mrs. Edith B. Howard, a teacher in the Armstrong Technical High School, was awarded a judgment by Chief Justice Walter L. McCoy in circuit court last Friday against the District of Columbia for $1,518.66 for salary between September 1, 1926 and March 2, 1927. Chief Justice McCoy declared absurd the contention of the District commissioners that they were not the proper defendants and that the suit should have been filed against the Board of Education, by whom the teachers are employed. He pointed out that appropriations for all salaries of the public schools are made to the District of Columbia and that the Board of Education has no funds of its own. The Board of Education, he stated, simply certifies to the commissioners who should be paid. Attorney Crandal Mackey appeared for Mrs. Howard. Opposition's Theory Assistant Corporation Counsel R. L. Williams opposed the judgment on the theory that the Board of Education, and not the District, has the power to appoint or discharge a teacher. The suit was for back salary from the time she became eligible for reinstatement under the maternity rules of the Board of Education and the date she was again placed in employment. A vacancy occurred in the English Department of the Dunbar High School in last September when Mrs. Clarissa Scott Delaney resigned to marry, but the Board of Education declined to appoint Mrs. Howard. She applied to the courts for a writ of mandamus to compel her appointment and while court action was pending she was reinstated to teach English in the Armstrong Technical High School, March 2. METRO, BAPTIST ELECTS HOUSTON MAN NEW PASTOR At a meeting of members and officials of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, R street between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, northwest, Tuesday evening, August 9, Rev. E, L. Harrison, pastor of the Antioch Baptist Church of Houston, Texas, was elected to succeed the late Rev. M. W. D. Norman in the pulpit left vacant by the death of the later on December 26 of last year. The place left vacant by Rev. Norman, who served as pastor of the church for twenty-one years, was a much sought after berth. The church, however, in an effort to obtain someone capable of filling the vacant chair, invited a different minister to officiate at the Sunday services each week. The thirty ministers who were invited came from all sections of the country, and Rev. Harrison, who was elected, filled the pulpit at the services, July 31. No other candidate was considered at the meeting last Tuesday. Rev. Harrison's name was the only one voted upon. The Metropolitan Baptist Church is one of the largest churches in the city, both in seating capacity and membership, and consequently, to fill its pulpit becomes an honor, and if it is likely that Rev. Harrison will accept the new post when he receives notice of his election. --- OFFICE: 920 U STREET, N.W. BE SOL ate Robt. rtgaged CLINT, FLANAGAN COMMITTED TO JAIL HERE LOUIS COVE LEAG OLD A bt. J.

Flanagan, indicted on two charges of forgery by the grand jury on May 26, was committed to jail here yesterday, to await trial. He was brought here from New York Wednesday, where he had been arrested on a charge of burglary, by the United States marshal. - Flanagan, along with Albert Thomas Edwards, and Lucy A. Taylor, is charged with forging the name of Mrs. Violet B. Warfield, the wife of Dr. William A. Warfield, surgeon-in-chief of Freedmen's Hospital, to five promissory notes, a check, and a deed of trust.

RUMOR JOSIE BAKER TO SUE ETHEL WATERS RUMOR JOSIE BAKER TO SUE ETHEL WATERS NEW YORK CITY—Broadway as well as Harlem is astir over the rumor that Josephine Baker, through her New York attorneyys, has instituted suit for an injunction to prevent Ethel Waters from continuing her burlesque of the Parisian "countess." Whether the producer, Earl Dancer, who conceived the idea, and the owners of Daly's 63rd Street Theatre, where the alleged injury to Josephine's popularity takes place, will be codefendants, could not be ascertained. There was also much speculation as to whether Count Albertini would institute a similar injunction against Louis Douglas, who at every performance convulses New York's Rialto with his mimicry of Miss Baker's consort. An interview with Miss Waters disclosed the fact that she was all in the dark as to the proceedings and had not, and did not expect to be served in the action. If Miss Baker has grounds for civil action no legal lights could be found who were of that opinion. This is the same opinion expressed by those who have seen the skit over and over again in "Africana" and it was the consensus of desire that if such action were taken it would come to naught, since this timely burlesque of the famous Josephine certainly does not detract from the much sought after publicity of the "countess."

Hubert, Mrs. Nellie Bowler Chapman and Miss Mamie L. Bowler, sisters and Thomas C. Bowler, Jr., brother of the late Robert J. Bowler, secured an injunction temporarily restraining the sale at auction Tuesday afternoon of the property at 1817 Tenth street, northwest. Chief Justice William I. McCoy, holding equity court, issued the injunction. The property, the home of the Bowlers, was claimed to be a possession of the family instead of of one. The auction, Tuesday, was to be a Trustees sale at the request of William R. Baum and Robert T. Highfield, trustees, who had been secured to the extent of $6,500 through a deed of trust issued to them by the deceased Bowler. Much mystery surrounds the story leading up to the climax on Tuesday morning when the order to enjoin the sale of the property was signed. On February 21, 1926, Thomas C. Bower, junior, father of four children, died a widower and intestate By law, Mrs. Nellie Bowler Chapman, Robert J. Bowler, Miss Mamie L. Bowler and Thomas C. Bowler, junior, became his heirs to share equally and alike in whatever estate he possessed. When he died, it is alleged, there remained quite a sum of indebtedness. He left to be paid off a third trust on the home as well as a sum of arrear on the second trust. Robert J. Bowler, late attorney and real estate operator who committed suicide on June 20, 1927, it is alleged, fraudulently got sole possession of the property by apparently forging the names of his sisters and brother on a deed, purported to have been dated May 8, 1926, conveying the property to Beltran D. Barker, prominent local business man. The relatives claim that one was in Richmond, and that the others were at their work on that day. Barker, who denies any knowledge of the transaction, declares that he was illegally used as a conduit, and is consequently ignorant of any deal whereby the property was reconveyed to the alleged forger on May 21, 1926.

Thomas Fortune CHAPTER 5 COTTON PICKING AND The drummer boy, Johnny Smith, was a sturdy little fellow. He had much experience far beyond his twelve years. Indeed, what he had gone through as a drummer boy gave him experience that easily made him wise and as hard as a man. He was an inveterate tobacco chewer, consuming great quantities of the "army plug," a very black tobacco saturated with mclasses. Some readers of this article may remember it. Johnny soon taught Timothy the use of it, and for many years after he was a confirmed addict. It is a very difficult habit to get rid of, like most other hurtful habits so easily acquired. It is worth while to make a note of the fact that most men were tobacco chewers and most women were snuff users in the days of slavery and long after. Many were inveterate pipe smokers, and they smoked "plug," the raw product, which was often very rank. The syrup soaked "plug" the Union soldiers introduced became very popular in the South, but its popularity has long passed, and finer tobaccos, scientifically treated, have taken its place. Tobacco chewing is a very nasty habit, which few people now indulge in. Timothy's use of tobacco was hurtful to him and I am sure he would have been much the gainer if the Union drummer boy had never taught him to use it. I endeavored to dissuade Timothy from the use of it, but without success. Youth must be served. What appears bad to the grown-ups the youngsters will hanker after. If denied it in public they will "sneak" it in private. If the grown-ups do not want the youngsters to contract bad habits they must not set them the example. Johnny Smith undertook to tattoo the Union flag on Timothy's arm, but the process was too painful and Timothy rebelled. He was prone to rebel against anything that did not dovetail with his feelings and desires. One day Johnny gave Timothy a lot of the big brass caps used in the old army guns, and Timothy was feverishly anxious to hear them explode. Just how to make them do so puzzled him for a time. Then he hit upon the idea of placing a cap on the head of an ax, the blade of which was stuck in the earth, and striving the cap with a hammer. The experiment was a great success. The explosion was very loud and brought his mother into the yard, from which the sound proceeded, on the jump. Timothy was prone on the ground, writhing in pain and screaming at the top of his voice. A piece of the brass cap had struck his right knee and penetrated the flesh a full half inch. It was very painful and it was all they could do to get the piece of brass out of the wound and to prevent the development of blood poison. His mother grabbed the brass caps and made away with them. It was some days before Timothy could be up and about some other mischief. The Negro church of Marianna had no regular pastor, but "a supply" was furnished in Rev. John Pope. Timothy's adopted step-grandfather and a Sunday school had been organized. Timothy, being among the brightest of the bunch was made superintendent, but he did not know and did not remain on the job long enough to find out what it was all about. With the assistance of the grown-ups, they and the children having entered whole-heartedly into the Sunday school work, a nicic had been mapped out for the end of the week. It was the first picnic "About fifty years ago," says Mr. Lewis G. O'Dields, of Portersville, Ala., "my mother gave me the first dose of Black-Draught, and I have taken it ever since, when I needed a medicine for constipation. I have used this remedy all my married life, in raising my children. "I have used Black-Draught frequently for heartburn, as I have had spells of this kind, off and on, for years. This follows indigestion, and indigestion comes close on constipation. "I have found that the best way to head off trouble is to begin taking Black-Draught in time. It relieves me of dizziness, tightness in the chest and backache. "By getting rid of impurities, Black-Draught helps to keep the system in good order. I always keep it in the home, and have recommended it to many people, in my time. I always say a good word for a good medicine." Sold by all druggists.

West St. Indianapolis - Indiana 50¢ Everywhere MUSIC FORUM VOICES OF THE YOUNG It was not altogether a beautiful evening but it was the occasion of an echo meeting from the national Baptist Young People's Union. Congress held in Nashville, Tenn. recently. The place was the Greater Calvary Baptist Church, Georgetown, D.C. of which Rev. Francis E. Pree, D.D., is pastor. Here last week a splendid musical and literary program was given. The participants were: Juvenile B.Y.P.U. songs; duet, Misses Norma Crawford, soprano; Lula Mane Craw the Negro children had ever had planned for them and great was their enthusiasm about it. But Timothy's cousin Benjamin had asked him if he wanted to go up Campbellion way to pick cotton for the week, and he had been carried away with the prospect of the outing. Late Sunday afternoon they had set out for the cotton fields (Timothy regretting to have miss the picnic), so that they could begin work early Monday morning. Cotton picking was great fun for the youngsters and profitable for the grown-ups. Fifty cents a hundred pounds, was paid, with some pecks of cornmeal and a few pounds of fat pork allowed for ration. Timothy had his ration, and he was one of the best cotton pickers in the group. One must have long fingers, with handy use of them, with an active, supple body, to be an expert cotton picker. Timothy had all of these and he made almost as much money for the week as the grown-ups. All were highly elated over the cutting and the money made and returned to Marianna Saturday night on very best terms with themselves and the rest of mankind. But horror of horrors! What awful news awaited their home coming! The picnic had been a remarkable success in numbers and enthusiasm. All were gathered at the picnic grounds and enjoying to the full their first experience of the kind, when a party of white hoodlums, hidden in the surrounding forest, opened a deadly fire with shotguns on the women and children and the very few men in the gathering. It was ghastly business, one of the most fendish outrages of Reconstruction days. The ground was littered with dead and maimed children and grown-ups. Sergeant Barnes and his band were credited with the unheard of barbarity but responsibility for the crime was never fixed. None of the assassins had been seen and there was no county government as yet t, undertake to investigate and fix the responsibility. In this as in many other instances Timothy appeared, to bear a charmed life. His acceptance of the invitation to spend the week up country picking cotton rather than wait and attend the picnic, saved his life, possibly, as a younger about his own age was shot to death at the very spot which Timothy always selected to occupy when fishing in that section of the country. Can you imagine a party of grown-ups white persons deliberately shooting into a crowd of Sunday school teachers and children? Next week—War Among School Children.

Gaiter, Proprietress THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE ford, alto; Miss Thelma White accompanying at the piano; violin solo, Mrs. Julia Marshall; vocal solo, Mrs. Lena Young; paper, Miss Eyelyn White; addresses by Dr. Greene, Rev. and Mrs. Carter, Mr. Washington, Rev. Young and the pastor. The place generally is what we might call a small church and this means that few if any so-called big folks even pay them heed. We soon discovered however that this church may be small in numbers but is really great in character. Our mind went back to the time-old adage that the larger and finer churches monopolize all of the better things while the smaller churches struggle on without. Believe it or not, a fine pipe-organ, brilliant electric lights, "swell choir," ornamental pews, high-stepping ushers, big salaried pastor and many elegant looking, but not eloquently endowed officials, facing a fashionable, stylish looking congregation is not always the criterion of high spiritual, moral and intellectual people as compared with the supposed insignificant churches whose auditors are preadjudged as inferior and out-of-date. We for one believe that as many false worshippers in the larger churches go either to heaven or hell as may be found in the smaller ones. We are opposed to false pride, false manifestation and false Christianity and for that reason because much of these things exist in higher places we were particularly pleased in what we saw and heard at this little church on this occasion. There is power in a small church because so much unjust criticism and false motives are not largely apparent as in a large church although they are not without their shortcomings as a whole. Here are things that made our heart glad. Little Misses Norma and Lula Mag Crawford sang a duet with young Miss Thelma White at the piano; Evelyn White read a fine essay and that young juvenile B.Y.P.U. choir sang sweetly indeed. The Crawford sisters rendered their duet beautifully and their accompanist, young as she is, showed musicianship in touch, and quality of tone produced. Little Miss White read a most interesting paper whose style and composition compared favorably with older heads. The juvenile chorus sang well, one song particularly was so sweetly rendered that we almost laughed and cried with animation at one and the same time. You tell me that all the good talent may be found in the larger churches? Not so. Here we found fervor, spirit, modesty and the will to do the one thing well—here in this small church. Here we found laughter and smiles radiating all over the face of the attendants be speaking cheerfulness and happiness as it should be in all such places. Here we found music and song of an inspiring character lifting one's soul up, up out into the sunlight of God's own benediction. Here we found a blessing that soothed our weary hearts. Much of the success of these young people is due to the organizer, Mrs. Mamie Neil and she has something to her credit to feel proud of to save the least. Mrs. Young sang with her usual power and spirit and Mrs. Marshall performed well in her initial effort on the violin. Rev. Pree closed the meeting with a forceful address and all went home happy.

In a word, the delegates so enjoyed Cedar Haven, that the whole body endorsed it as the most ideal race summer subdivision in this section and several of the delegates bought lots and villa sites. On the same day, the Trinity Baptist Church gave their annual picnic at Cedar Haven. It is useless to recite again the joys of the children, along the sands of the crescent beach. All was pleasure. An interesting event of a different nature, was the opening, last Sunday, of the first house constructed this year at Cedar Haven. The owner of this new villa is Mr. William Thompson, one of the directors of the Prudential Bank. A True Race Colony "Harrison's," at Cedar Haven will be open for inspection Sunday; and will begin the operation of business the following week. It must be said for Cedar Haven that it is a real race project. The owner and developer, Mr. Daniel, has kept faith with the purchasers. An entire race sales force, in charge of Mr. Michael Jones, comprises a score of salesmen, saleswomen, and office workers. On the field, race contractors are in charge of construction. Mr. Childs, supervising this work, is to be commended for the quality of the work produced. The bath house is a true master-piece. A board walk surrounds the entire bath house. A beautiful surrounds the entire building. A large front lounging porch is fitted with grass rugs and big, comfortable chairs. Bathing suits are checked-out over the long counter at the back of this porch. Then, on opposite sides of this counter, passages lead respectively, to men's and women's dressing rooms. The rear porch is larger than the front porch, making a spacious dance floor. It is a credible bath house. Cedar Haven is truly fulfilling its promises of development; and the enterprise is due the successes that it has enjoyed thus far. NICE MAN "How do you like your efficiency expert?" "Fine!

Galaxy of Tank Stars Display Wares in Tribune Swim Baltimore Black Sox Here Thurs., Play Washington Black Sox # Sam's Scripts Simon W. Sheffield announced last Wednesday that Francis I (Eggie) Greenfield had been unconditionally released from the Washington Black Sox Baseball Club. Greenfield, who up to the time of his resignation as manager, and dismissal from the club, had been one of the oldest members of the Sox team, and was well liked by all the Sox fans. Only recently, because of dissension in the ranks of the team, has "Eggie" seemed a failure as manager. It is easily a matter of opinion, however, as to whether or not Greenfield could have been expected to succeed in the face of the odds presented by dissatisfied partisans. George Ford, Greenfield's successor, is also his predecessor. Ford was manager of the team before the recently deposed chief took the reins. Ford is an exceptional ball player. He is without a doubt the greatest all-round man to be found in or near the District. Besides being able to play any two positions well, the new boys is head and shoulders above many in the knowledge of the national pastime. The games in the Tribune League have begun to become less attractive. While it is the desire of this department to make them appear as good as they are, we do no intend to misrepresent by painting them. There are altogether too many unnecessary arguments, and nothing can destroy its worth quicker than can such actions as have marred several of the games recently. The Potomac Giants-Brookland battle of a week ago, the D.C. Special-Hilldale, the National-Pirate, the Potomac Giant-Myrtle Prep and the D.C. Special-Hecht engagements have all been rebbed of their interest because felling which grew out of petty arguments. Meiji Monroe, sought throughout the season by the Baltimore Black Sox retains his position at third base for the Washington Black Sox. Manager Taylor as well as George Rossiter have resorted to all sorts of means in attempts to land the Howard University star. Strong, Baltimore hurler, and Ben Taylor's scout was in town Tuesday. He dropped into the office and asked how he might get in touch with Monroe —? DEPARTMENTAL LEAGUE NEWS By William C. Traynham Last week the Departmental League closed its season, the latter part being replete with forfeits and games that were thrown out, the Post Office being the only team that did not forfeit at least one game. By forfeiting the final game to the Government Printing Office, the Treasury eliminated the slim chance they had to win second honors. Had they won the final game would have had a chance of winning the second half as the two remaining postponed games were to have been played with the lowly Veterans Bureau and State. By jointly winning both sections the G.P.O. team is the undisputed departmental champions of 1927. The leading batters of the 2nd series is Baylor of Treasury, although topped by A. Beverly of State who only performed in part of two games. Leading run scorers Adams and Hope of the Post Office with 12 each followed by Braddic of G.P.O. With 11, Dandridge of G.P.O. again leads the base stealers, while Bland of G.P.O. was the home run king with 5 circuit clouts. The pitching honors are divided between Bland of G.P.O. and Beckwith of Treasury. Ross of G.P.O. handled the most chances in a single game—12 without an error. In singing the swan song the Departmental League hopes for a better season in 1928 and the interest shown by all players, managers and fans is appreciated and the league extends to all its cordial thanks.

The scores seem to be wide margins, and they fail in showing the closeness of the games. The plucky little clubmen were a thorn in the side to the Sox at all times. Bobby Stevens, one of the best young players in the District, who left Thursday for New Haven, played a stellar role in both games. Paired with Tribby around the keystone sack they were poison to the Colored champs. Rex McAuliffe starred in right field in the nightcap. Monroe, Brown and Ford starred for the Sox afield, Grant and Ford were best at the bat. In the opener, Spike Bland pitched a masterful game.

Benoit had the league leaders at his mercy, dealing only 8 hits, which he kept so well distributed that they did him no damage. He allowed no ruhs until the eight frame.

The Lafayettes were taken into camp 11-2 and 11-3. Following their defeat at the hands of the Myrtles on the latter's grounds, Elzie Richard's Union League Champions returned to their Southwest lot and took a 2-1 verdict from the Giants. Adams was the winning pitcher. SAMUEL H. LACY, Sports Editor HUGE CROWD WATCHES SWIMMERS COMPETE IN ACQUATIC CARNIVAL TROPHY AND PLACE WINNERS IN TRIBUNE SWIM MEET BLACK SOX NO LONGER POTOMAC GIANTS DEFEAT UNDER GREENFIELD, QUIT MYRTLE PREPS 7-6 A most enthusiastic crowd witnessed the staging of the season's largest Swimming Tournament and Water Carnival, at the Howard Playground Swimming Pool last Saturday afternoon. The Meet, which was under the joint auspices of the Washington Tribune and Lifeguards Tommy Hughes and Ralph Wright, was a success, in every sense of the word. The Tribune trophies went to DuBois Jones, Sidney Stokes, and Miss Louise Jefferson, winners in the senior, junior and ladies classes respectively. Oliver Dade took off high point honors in the midgut section. DuBois Jones, a student at Howard University won the Tribune Cup for the big fellows. Three first places gave him a total of 15 points, five more than his nearest rival. Jones took the 50-yard crawl stroke race with little difficulty, won the 100 yard free style handily, and plunged 34 feet and one inch to capture the plunge for distance. A feature of the 100-yard free style race occurred when Clarence Pendleton, Howard University football cheer leader, track miler, and jazz orchestra leader, pulled up minus the lower portion of his beautiful blue and white swimming suit. Despite the loss of his rament, however, "Penny" finished third for his only point of the day. He remained in the water until he had recovered his stray trunks. Ben Akers clinched second place in the senior division when, in the last event of the afternoon, the underwater swim, he covered 165 feet below the surface. His mark bettered that of Joe Sewell, the favorite by 15 feet. Sewell taking his turn just before Akers, whose name was last on the list, swam two lengths of the pool, 150 feet, then arose, apparently satisfied with his achievement. The former life guard then made his attempt and after having covered the distance made by his rival, pushed off for 15 additional feet thus snatching victory and second prize from the hands of the Dunbar High School lad. The events in the ladies class, though not a complete failure proved the only disappointment of the Carnival. Competition was lacking in that only three young ladies participated. High point honors went to Miss Louise Jefferson, whose 3 firsts and 1 second gave her a total of 18 points. Miss Olga Milton and Doris Skinner were the other two fair entrants. Petite Miss Skinner was first in the only events she entered while coy Miss Milton obtained 4 seconds and a third in the five matches. Miss Jefferson or "Baby Lou" as By "Flash" Robeson Many fans will regret the passing of "Eggia" Greenfield from the scene of his greatest success as he resigned from the leadership of the Washington Black Sox last Sunday night. Many players and also fans were great friends of the big "train" and will miss his big bat from the line-up of the Sox. His baseball career was bright after a start with the old Lenox Clubmen. For sometime he has been feared by many pitchers and had his arm withstood the strain, he would be in the "big time" today. He may decide to play with some of the good clubs around Washington yet, and if he does his annexation will be a great help to the fortunate club. George Ford, a star well known around town, was appointed leader to finish out the season. PLAYGROUND TENNIS Louise Butler and Mari Edlin of Willow Tree Playground were partners on the girls' doubles team which won the dual playground championship from Rose Park on Wednesday morning. The match held on Howard Playground resulted in a victory in straight sets 6-3, 6-2 for the winners. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, AUGUST 12; 1927 The fancy diving contest was featured by Ben Akers' spectacular dive from atop the bath houses across the fence. He was easily the winner in this event. Sidney Stokes, youthful Armstrong Tech student and a locker boy at the pool was the individual star of the meet. His 3,firsts netted him the cup in the junior lot, and in taking second places in the dive and plunge he garnered 6 points against the larger boys. Harold Akers' younger brother to Ben Akers took the second prize in the junior division. A 220-yard exhibition match race between Tommy Jackson, local aquatic marvel, Benny Akers and DuBois Jones resulted in a victory for the former. Jackson finished 22 yards ahead of Jones who finished second. Following are the results: Senior Class 50-yard crawl—D. Jones, first; Joe Sewell, second; Harold Akers, third. 100-yard free style—D.

MONUMENT, Diamond 8—A pitcher's battle in which "Piekles" Fells received the verdict over the Myrtle Prepa went to the Potomac Giants, 7-6, last Sunday afternoon. Much umpire bickering and poor sportsmanship marred the setto, and though Fells fanned 10 Prepa, he barely escaped defeat. Kenarde with 3 hits, and Harris and Williams with 2 each, were the only Giants to connect with Standback's offerings.

BEN TAYLOR AND SOX HERE THURS. Ben Taylor and his speedy,hard-hitting aggregation known as the Baltimore Black Sox have been induced to board train and come to Washington for the first time in three years. They will meet, Sheffields' Washington Black Sox in a twilight game on next Thursday at American League Park. With the slugging "Babe" Wilson, the sensational Scrappy Brown, and "Old Reliable" Ben Taylor, the Baltimore Black Sox, nosed out by the Atlantic City Bacharachs in the first half for Eastern Leau honors, should be quite an attraction. Local baseball fans are well acquainted with Wilson and Brown who are District products. They also know Ben Taylor, Mack Eggleston, Bob McClure and Namon Washington, all of them former Washington Potomac. Besides these stars, the Baltimore Sox boast of one of the Eastern League's outstanding shortfielders in the person of Jackson, brother to the Washington team's first-sacker. On their appearance in Baltimore and on their many appearances on their home diamond, the local Black Sox heard much clamoring for an engagement between them polys and the Orioles. The Ferdales, according to Bob Quinn, captain, who have played both Black Sox teams are hard pressed to decide which should rule favorites. It is understood, however, that because of their membership in the Eastern League the Monumental City team should draw the favorites. The game will get under way at 4:45 p.m. sharp. ANACOSTIA WIN PAIR FROM SOUTHERN STARS ANACOSTIA WIN PAIR FROM SOUTHERN STARS ANACOSTIA FIELD — After running away in the first game 22-3 the Anacostia Athletics experienced more difficulty in taking the flightcap from the Southern Stars in their twin duel here last Sunday. The second score was 7-4. The Anacostians were outhit by their supposedly weaker rivals in the second tilt, the Stars gathering 14 bingles to their opponents' 114. A total of 12 errors was made by the losers in the finale. A notable factors was that the entire afternoon was characterized by good, clean sportsmanship on the part of everybody.

Mack, on the slab for the Specials pitched superbly in the opener. He issued only 3 hits, sufficiently scattered to deal his opponents a ribbon of goose eggs. Hecht ..... 000 200 0—2 D. C.

N.J.-Eyre Saitch, National Champion from New York City, duplicated his 1926 victory in the Eastern Tennis Championships, held here last week, when he defeated Ted Thompson, 1925 National Champion and Number 2 ranking A.T. a player, in the final round, Saturday in straight sets 7-5, 8-6, and 9-7. Miss Lula Ballard took the women's singles. Saitch made his way to the same finals Friday by defeating Talley Holmes another Washingtonian, 6-3, 5-7 and 6-1. The semi-finals brought about matches between Saitch and Syl Smith, Philadelphia Open Champion in the upper bracket and Thompson and Downing, of Virginia in the lower. Saitch was victorious 6-3, 3-6, 6-1 and 6-3 while Thompson won 4-6, 7-5, 9-7 and 6-3. Miss Ballard repeated her triumph of last year and incidentally turned the tables on Miss Isadore Channels who defeated her in the Nationals last year. The Pennsylvania Miss won 6-3, 1-6 and 8-6. Smith and Wilkinson defeated Holmes and Thompson in the men's doubles 4-6, 6-2, 6-4 and 6-4. The women's doubles went to Misses Washington and Ballard, the Pennsylvania team. Miss Ballard was again victorious when she and her partner Norman Ashe won the mixed doubles. Miss Anita Gant of this city was eliminated in the third round of the women's singles when she was defeated 6-1, 7-5 by Miss Isadore Channels. The semi-final and final rounds: Men's Singles Semi-finals—Saitch defeated S. BLACK SOX MEET MYRTLE A. C. BLACK SOX MEET MYRTLE A. C. The Myrtle A. C. now under new management will meet the Washington Black Sex in a double header at Union Leaue Park next Sunday. The Myrtle combination having downed the Orientalis in a 7-6 battle last Sunday, are looking forward to taking the Sox into camp. Eddie Barner the latest acquisition has greatly strengthened the Myrtle lineup. The ex-Teddy Bear and Washington Potomac hurler, is at the top of his form this season and is capable of giving the District Colored Champions much trouble at the plate. Cook Nickens, Cat Taylor, and Subway Green are also members of the Myrtle hurling corps and each of them is able to give a good account of himself when called on. The Myrtles pushed Elizie Richard's Orientalists throughout the Union League season and topped the race off with a victory over the Southwest clan last Sunday. Another record crowds similar to the one that witnessed the Oriental-Sox game is expected. WAR COLLEGE HELPLESS BEFORE HUNTSVILLE HUNTSVILLE, Md.—The Huntsville Giants captured another Tribune League game here last Sunday when the Army War College journeyed out here and joined the long and growing list of Huntsville victims. The score was 17-13. The contest was a slugfest. The soldiers trailing 17-2 made a valiant effort in their seventh and eighth innings by counting 5 and 6 times in those respective frames. A. Hamilton, Giant slugger was held hitless for the first time this year. Maynard, however, took up where his hard hitting teammate left off. He obtained 5 bingles in 6 attempts.

Ben Taylor, team manager, was the most seriously injured. He was cut about the face and arms by flying glass, and was taken to the Havre de Grace Host pitual where 20 stitches were required to close the wounds. Strong, a pitcher, received a slight wrench ASHINGTON BEN TAYLOR Manager of the Baltimore Black Sox. Taylor was injured in an automobile accident this week. of his left arm, while Jackson, Washington and Wilson were slightly cut by flying glass. Strothers who drives the bus, "Scrappy" Brown, Eggleton, Force, Bowers and Halloway were uninjured. The accident, which occurred two and one-half miles from here, came as a result of the skidding of the truck on the wet road. The bus was knocked, partly overturned, against a telegraph pole and badly wrecked. Taylor will doubtless be kept out of the Sox line-up for two weeks. GIANTS MEET PANTHERS GIANTS MEET PANTEERS The Potomac Giants and Elite Panthers age old rivals are to meet in a Tribune League doubleheader on tomorrow afternoon, August 18, at the Monument Lot Diamond 8 beginning at 2 o'clock. The Elite Panthers, clinging to first place in Class A with the Potomac right on their heels are facing a pretty ticklish situation in meeting their less favored adversaries. Each club has a host of loyal rooters and the games tomorrow should be red hot, nip and tuck battles.

This is a story of Broadway night life. If you want to know exactly what the clubs look like, who the entertainers are, and what dances are being done, "Cabaret" should be seen. If there is any one woman in America who knows Broadway night clubs it is Gilda Gray. Miss Gray's first production, "Aloma of the South Seas" was said by critics to have been very well produced, but this can in no way compare with her latest starring vehicle. In addition to the screen productions for the week will also be seen on the stage Miss Edith Waddell. Miss Waddell is very popular in Washington and this together with the fact that she has a very pleasing voice should make this week's production at the Lincoln one of the best of the summer season. On Wednesday and Thursday, August 17. 18, as previously announced will be double feature day, and the first screen presentation will be the ever popular Adolphe M. Adolphe Menjou in The Paramount Picture "Evening Clothes" Menjou in "Evening Clothes." This is a story of a man who loved his wife so deeply he rebuilt and later wrecked his whole life to prove it to her. It is told with startling flashes of humor. The other screen presentation will be Leatrice joy in "Vanity." supported by Charles Ray and Alan Hale. This is a production which should appeal especially to the female set as it shows what vanity a woman poss Gray in her new starring vehicle "Cabaret" Supporting Miss Gray shows what HOWARD ADMISSION SCALE—Matinee, All S Evening—Ore ONE WEEK ON JAC CLARA SMITH Record Artist and HOWARD THEATER Direction, A.

Dix is supported by Helene Chadwick and Noah Beery. In this production Richard Dix will be seen as an army lieutenant stationed in a hard boiled frontier town. The hair raising adventures that occur during the course of duty makes this one of the most thrilling and adventurous pictures that has come to this theatre in many months. On Saturday only there will be three big talent shows—5; 7:15 and 9:15. CLARA SMITH AT THE HOW ARD NEXT WEEK For the week beginning Monday, August 15, the Howard Theatre presents Clara Smith and her "Black Bottom Revue." Miss Smith needs little introduction as she has won international fame as a Columbia record artist. She will offer one of the banner shows of the season. Miss Smith has supplied herself with entirely new jokes and new songs and this together with the rich of fun, nonsense and harmony is sufficient to guarantee an entertaining evening. The producer has spared no expense in giving to this show a wealth of scenery and harmonizing costumes beyond compare. This show carries a cast of twenty-five all-colored artists, each being a star. The chorus consists of fast-stepping 'dancing damsels. Lovers of old time melody will be given a real treat, as there are many of the way down South selections throughout the show. Summing the show, up generally, from the concensus of opinion of the various critics throughout the country, this show promises to be one of the best attractions that has played the Howard this summer. The management only hopes that the theatre goers will appreciate their efforts in securing for their approval shows that are of as high a type, during the summer months as can be hoped to be seen during the winter. On Friday night the regular midnight ramble will be held beginning at 12:15 sharp; at this performance the patrons are assured of two and one half hours of real entertainment. Tickets for the midnight ramble go on sale at the box office on Saturday of the week before the show. The screen attractions for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday will be "A Kiss in a Taxi," featuring Bebe Daniels and supported by Chester Conklin. You have seen many kinds of kisses from candy kisses to soul kisses, but you have never seen a kiss until you see the "Kiss in a Taxi." In this production one will see Miss Daniels, the famous comedian at her best. This EATER MI Sundays and Holidays ony, 25c G. MONDAY, DBERG, Inc. PRESENTS— e Screen THURS. FRI. SAT. SUN.

Dix is supported Chadwick and Noah together with the fact that she is supported by Chester Conklin leaves nothing more to be said than the fact that the entire production will be nothing more than a riot of fun. MUSICIANS' SAYS ACTOR On Thursday, Friday, Saurday and Sunday will be seen the "Wreck," featuring Shirley Mason and Malcom McGregor. This is the gripping melodrama of the adventures of a trusting little girl who has been fooled into matrimony by a sweet-tongued rogue who arranges a false ceremony so that she might be of assistance to him in his crooked schemes. Sometimes later while in a train one of the most thrilling and spectacular wrecks takes place and she is taken to the home of a wealthy man and being mistaken for the crook's wife, many more exciting things happen to her than anyone can imagine. The entire production is well directed and well acted and has a climax that is both exciting and undreamed of. "THE FIRE BRIGADE" AT THE BROADWAY Starting Sunday, till Monday, the Broadway Theatre will present Peter B. Kynne's greatest story "Breed of the Sea" with Margaret Livingston, Ralph Ince and Dorothy Dunbar. It is a thundering tale of southern seas, a strange tropical island, with a slashing devil-may-care captain of a ship who happens to be a twin brother to this same placid South Sea missionary and masquerades as a minister for the sake of the brother such action and thrills you have who has married the girl he loved; never seen in any motion picture. On Tuesday, one day only, a real funny situation of a girl who eloped with the wrong man and what happened afterwards. You will like Vera Reynolds in "The Little Adventures." On Wednesday and Thursday, the one and only Marie Prevost in "Almost a Lady." Dazzling gowns with a true object lesson to all strivers. The week will end on Friday and Saturday with a blaze of thrills with Charles Ray and May McAvoy in "The Fire Brigade." You will see actual action scenes of our own Captain E. C. Gibson as an added attraction to this wonderful feature. This feature will be shown through the courtesy of the Republic Theatre. Short subjects and Black and White Band will make up the entire program. Judge—I am told you haven't spoken to your wife for three years. If so, how do you justify such treatment of her? Defendant—Your honor, I did not want to interrupt her. Pathfinder 7th and T Sts., N.W. Samuel Graham, Mgr.

Winkler is president, has issued a statement through the office of the secretary, J. Randolph Branson, to the effect that the actors who failed to make their appearance at the Lincoln Theatre on July 24, we forced to do so because of the policy of the management of that theatre. The letter follows: "I am writing in regards to an article published in the July 30th edition of The Tribune about the midnight show booked for performance at the Lincoln Theatre on July 24, 1927. "I wish to state in justice to the actors that they were not to blame for their non-appearance as the article read. "The Lichtman interests controlling the Howard and Lincoln theatres in this city and the Royal Theatre in Baltimore are bitterly opposed to Colored organized labor. "The acts billed for the above mentioend show depended largely upon the support of their orchestra. These musicians are members of The American Federation of Musicians, and their appearance in this city at an unfair house would have meant a violation of union principles and aside from being fined, they would be subject to suspension from the Federation. "Quite a number of attractions carry in addition to their stage performers, a complete orchestra, very efficient in playing the show. Largely, they are union men and can not appear at these non-union houses, therefore depriving the theatre going public of Washington of seeing and hearing a real attraction; for instance, Drake and Walker at The Howard Theatre last week, a very good show, carried their own orchestra or band but they were conspicuous by their absence due to union conditions "The public will be confronted with this condition frequently when the regular show schedule starts and all good attractions go on the circuit. As musicians, we are not personally at odds with the Lichtman interests, but they resent our affiliation with other Colored organized interests, namely stage hands and operators. We feel that we should stick together for our mutual benefit and principle, therefore the usual rub comes when cap Lincoln Theatre Coming Soon--Milton Sills in "FRAMED" ital and labor differ in opinion. "The musicians, stage hands and operators who as theatrical employees affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, pledged together for mutual support, earnestly hope for the unionizing of these houses to enable the theatre going public of Washington to see complete shows for the prices they pay, also to stage benefits, etc., in which union men can take part."

HIGH COST OF PENSIONS HIGH COST OF PENSIONS It isn't only the duration of a war that's costly—there's also the aftermath to consider. Take pensions for example! The government is paying out nearly $250,000,000 a year on this one item, and the end is not yet. It will be 1975 before the so-called "compensation" for World war veterans reaches its peak. And it looks as if this politically disguised pension will run on to 2050 A. D. Though many years have passed since the Civil and Spanish-American wars, there is a steady stream of new pension claims as a result of those conflicts. Action of the last Congress in increasing the rate in certain cases tacks $30,000,000, on our pension bill. The Civil war is still costing us $170,000,000, in pensions. The Veterans' bureau is now paying out almost that amount to World war veterans. Brig.-Gen. Frank T. Hines, director of the bureau, estimates that in 20 years, more money will be paid out by the government to men who served in the late war than is represented by the entire allied debt to the United States.

C. took both ends of their double bill from the lowly Columbia Cubs down here last Sunday by scores of 11-2 and 19-8. W. Kelly, Monarch hurler in the opener pitched and batted sensationally. Besides fanning 8 Bruin batters, he swatted out a triple, home run and single in 4 trips to the pan. The Kings had an easy time in the finale, jumping on the slants of Pee Wee Covington to establish a lead of 9 runs in the first frame. John Levi who was charged with the loss of the opener took up the burden, finishing the nightcap under a barrage of Monarch base hits.

FROM? There are several kinds of honeydew. One kind is the excre- tion of aphids or plant lice. An- other kind is produced when’ ap- hids, leaf hoppers and other in- sects puncture the leaves of trees. It is a sugar exudation from the leaves. Fungi, and even the or- dinary processes of over--turge- sence, may also cause such, sugar exudations. Bees, wasps, ants. and many other insects are attracted by honeydew. Honey made by bees from honeydew usually is of poor quality, being dark and un- palatable. Entomologists’ say’ cer- tain species of ants carefully tend colonies of plant lice for the ‘sake of the honeydew they produce.
