Lillian Tibbs Seeks Maintenance Highland Beach Citizens Are Divided Over Exclusion FIRST in Advertising and Circulation Vol. VII, No. 13 Lilli Highland Div COLONY SEETHES OVER EXPOSURE BY NEWSPAPERS HIGHLAND BEACH, Md., Aug. 19—This little summer colony is seething as a result of the expose made last week of the efforts being made to keep persons out of the community who are lacking in ancestry, color or social position while gambling is permitted to run openly among the smarter set. Everybody vants to know how the facts became public. Different persons are charged with prompting the exposure. A few minority voters in the recent election of commissioners say that it was inspired by the commissioners against whom they voted. No one knows. The commissioners themselves are divided. Some of them favor keeping this summer resort of the fashionable set from Washington and Baltimore as exclusive as Newport, R.I. Others believe that any restrictions imposed should be made on the basis of conduct without respect to ancestry, color or social position. They express the view that victims of segregation and discrimination cannot afford to segregate and discriminate on account of color or social position. Inconsistency in Practice Charges of inconsistency are being made. It is stated that those who want to keep people from coming into the community are selling lots whenever they can and to anybody who is able to buy. The threat to prevent the use of the beach to any persons buying lots from the Reverend Mr. Johnson, a white man who owns property adjacent to property in the Highland Beach community, is simply a bugaboo. One of the commissioners offered to buy this property for $15,000. He did not have the money. He wanted to pay for the land as he sold lots at a profit. Since the exposure was made, two of the property owners in Highland Beach have come out with invitations to their friends generally to visit them. They are the Mayor, Edwin B. Henderson, and Miss Nannie H. Burroughs. Southern Tactics The unauthorized stopping of automobiles entering the village was continued last Sunday. In one case, Roscoe Evans, the town clerk, and Barrington Guy turned an automobile crossways the road, stopped an incoming automobile and turned it back when its occupants were unable to give the name of any person or hotel they were on their way to visit. Highland Beach is an incorporated town by act of the state legislature. Notwithstanding its incorporation a majority of the commissioners have decided that they have the right to deny to any persons whom they may term undesirable the use of the town streets just as colored persons are denied the right to live in some southern towns under the admonition to "read and run; if you can't read, run anyhow." AARON SMITH VISITOR HERE Aaron Smith, deputy collector for the second district of New York, was a visitor in the city the past week. He is a graduate of Howard University College of Law and has been in the Internal Revenue department for the past four years. He left here to visit in Luray, Va., Gettysburg, and Harrisburg, Pa., en route to New York City. THE CONGRESSIONAL LIBRARY. FIRST ST., S.

LOUISE, Mo., Aug. 18—Herbert Hoover, Secretary of Commerce, is the best candidate for the Republican nomination for President, from the Negro viewpoint, Bishop E. Jones of the Methodist Episcopal Church declared in an address before the National Negro Business League last Friday on the "Economic Aspects of the Mississippi Flood." After telling of the rehabilitation work of Mr. Hoover in the flood area, Bishop Jones said: "I am thinking that out of that situation, with that marvelous personality, it would be fortunate for us, it would be fortunate for America, it would be fortunate for mankind, if Herbert Hoover should become President of the United States. "Fair to All" "I never saw a man who went into the South and understood the South and by the bare dint of his personality and his intent to do right and just and fair by all men win the South. "He looked planters in their faces and said, 'we are dealing with those tenants not as Negro tenants but as members of the human family.'" "I think it was a godsend that Herbert Hoover went down South." KELLY MILLER RETURNS FROM WESTERN TOUR Professor Kelly Miller returned to the city last Saturday after an extensive tour of the western and southwestern sections of the country. His mission was a lecture tour. He visited, among the many cities, Denver, Colo., Oakland, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Salt Lake City and Seattle, Washington, on the coast, while his southwestern traveling took in El Paso, San Antonio, Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, Galveston and Waco, Texas. The general theme of Professor Miller's talks was in regard to the "New Negro and the Old." His lectures were heard by thirty different audiences. Each of them were well attended, and in some cases "very encouraging" says Mr. Miller. ARKANSAS MAN ACCUSED OF EMBEZZLING $400 IN LODGE LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Aug. 19 (PNS)—J. E. Aldridge was arrested Thursday on a warrant charging embezzlement. It is alleged that Aldridge acted as agent for the Masonic Lodge of Arkansas and embezzled $400 of its funds. He was given a preliminary hearing in municipal court Thursday afternoon and bound over to the grand jury. --- Washington Tribune ST. LOUIS, Mo., Aug. 18—The twenty-eighth annual meeting of the National Negro Business League came to a close here last Friday afternoon. Members who have attended every session of the league since its organization declare that this was the most successful meeting in its history. This session was marked by a definite trend away from the inspirational type of meeting, in which members simply told of their achievements in some line of business. Emphasis was put upon the carrying out of a constructive program. Included in this program are the nationalizing of Negro Trade Week, the gathering and distribution of important information to business men and enterprises, the publication of a monthly bulletin, and a survey of Negro business. Big Business Men Present A number of substantial leaders in Negro business were in attendance. Perhaps the outstanding business men were Anthony Overton, president of the Doughtlass National Bank, Chicago; John R. Hawkins, president of the Prudential Bank, Washington, D.C.; C. C. Spaulding, president of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, Durham, North Carolina; John L. Webb, supreme custodian of the Woodmen of Union, Hot Springs, Ark.; Dr. M. O. Bousfield, president of the Liberty Life Insurance Company, Chicago, Ill.; and F. B. Ransom, manager of the Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company, Indianapolis, Ind. President's Address Dr. Robert R. Moton, president of the league, delivered his annual address Wednesday evening, August 10. He reported that there had been a conference of Negro business men with Wall street financiers in New York city last November. This conference had to do with the problems of financing Negro business enterprises, he stated "There is room for further progress," he said. "There are larger fields to cover, there are greater things to be done. It is our duty and our privilege to convince the nation that Negroes along business lines as well as along religious and fraternal lines, can co-operate a..."

Lautier (Staff Correspondent) NEGRO BANKERSTO MEET IN DURHAM, SEPT. 15 CASE AGAINST DR. AND MRS. BOOZE DIS- MISSED ROSEDALE, Miss., Aug. 18.—The case against Mrs. Mary C. Booze, Republican National Committeeewoman; her husband, Eugene P. Booze and three other persons, charging them with the murder of the late Isaiah T. Montgomery by poisoning, was dismissed last Saturday by Justice of Peace Robert Arnold for lack of evidence. The other three persons were Ben A. Green, Jr., mayor, and C. V. Thurmond, postmaster, of Mound Bayou, and the wife of the postmaster, Mrs. Beatrice Thurmond. Shortly after court convened, District Attorney John T. Smith advised Justice of Peace Arnold that there was no evidence upon which to hold the defendants for the action of the grand jury. He joined with the county prosecutor, Fred Clark, in asking that the case be dismissed. Mr. and Mrs. Booze, Mr. and Mrs. Thurmond and Mayor Green were arrested upon warrants issued upon the affidavit of Miss Estelle Montgomery, a sister of Mrs. Booze, and S. H. Branch, a colored detective of Little Rock, Ark. Mr. Montgomery was the father of Mrs. Booze. He left a large estate. Mr. Booze was appointed administrator of the estate. A family quarrel followed. The murder charge is believed to be the culmination of the dispute concerning the estate. J. FINLEY WILSON SAYS HE WILL BE RE-ELECTED "I shall be re-elected by acclamation." J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World, said today on the eve of the twenty-eighth annual convention which is being held in New York City August 22 to 27. Mr. Wilson is completing his fifth term as head of the Elks. He was first elected in Newark, N. J. in August, 1922. He sees no opposition to his election for a sixth term. He stated: "This has been the greatest year in the history of the Order. We shall go to New York City with a solid front in spite of the internal strife of six months ago. We have vacated the injunction against the Order in New York State. We have invaded foreign countries. We have built more homes, burned more mortgages and made bigger lodges and temples than in any other year. Successful Year "We have four new lodges this year representing over 4,000 members. The grand temple has been equally as successful under the leadership of Mrs. Ella G. Berry, the Grand Daughter Ruler. "The commissioner of education, William C. Hueston, of Gary, Ind., has astounded the educational world. Every student given a scholarship has made good. Four of them were elected presidents of freshmen classes in northern and western colleges. "The health program has gone over big. It has attracted the attention of the big insurance companies and even of Surgeon General Hugh S. Cummings of the Public Health Service of the United States. Expects to Win "The South, saving Richmond Va., and Atlanta, Ga., is solidly for my re-election. The West is moving on to New York like a cyclone. New England is coming to Manhattan like a tornado. All of New York state with the rest of the icy North has long since endorsed me. Mighty Monarch has spoken for New York City and is leading the band wagon. "If there are any other candidates for grand exalted ruler, they will have to ride in the hearse. The administration car is the band wagon. "I shall be re-elected by acclamation Wednesday." Masonic Grand Lodge Says $10,000 Trust Placed Without Its Consent Little Harrison Dillinger, ten-year-old colored lad is lying in Freedman's Hospital today as the result of an accidental shooting which occurred at 1605 S street, northwest, about 10 o'clock Wednesday morning. He was shot by Clinton Lester, also 10. The Dillingers are roomers at the S street adress with the parents of Clinton. They have just recently become occupants of the house. No one was at home with the exception of the three children, Clinton Lester, his sister Mary, age 5, and Harrison. Mr. Lester had gone to the Potomac Electric Power Company for the purpose of having his electricity turned on. The children were in the back room of the second floor playing, when Clinton suddenly remembered having seen his father's 32 calibre revolver in the bureau drawer. Extracting it he began pulling the trigger. The first time it did not explode—nor the second, but the third time the hammer pin connected with a cartridge and little Harrison was shot, the bullet entering his right leg just below the knee. A white woman living at 1820 Sixteenth street, northwest, hearing the report called over the fence to Mrs. Mary Brown whose kitchen window faces the alley from Swann to S streets. Mrs. Brown left her home, 1614 Swann street and rushed to the S street house where she found the injured boy lying on the bed. He refused to be taken to the hospital, stating a desire to await the return of his father. Fifteen minutes later the father returned and he was rushed to Freedmen's where doctors reported his condition as not serious. PORTERS WIN IN RECOGNITION FIGHT PORTERS WIN IN RECOGNITION FIGHT NEW YORK, Aug. 15—Word that the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters has been accorded official recognition by the United States Board of Mediation was received at the headquarters of the union, 2311 Seventh avenue, today, in a telegram from A. Philip Randolph, general organizer of the Brotherhood. Mr. Randolph is now in Chicago where he has been representing the union before the railroad board. The porters' union is the first labor organization of Negro workers on a national scale, and the disposition of its case by the Federal Board has been eagerly awaited in trade union, as well as Negro circles. Frank Crosswaith, organizer of the union, declared the decision of the board in sending the dispute with the Pullman Company to arbitration constitutes a great victory for his organization. Mr. Crosswaith said: "Arbitration means recognition of the Brotherhood as a legitimate representative of the porters. The company fought such a step bitterly. However, we are happy to learn that the board has overruled the company and has sent the case to arbitration. To Tell Conditions "All of the elaborate and extensive research made by the labor bureau, showing the actual conditions under which the porters work, the wages they receive, the (Continued on page 8) UNION STA. OUTWARDLY ASS'N FOR STUDY OF COLD, IS CROWDED WITH NEGR HISTORY EXPANDS PATHOS AND HUMOR C Mme. LILLIAN EVANS TIBBS Internationally known singer who is suing for separate maintenance. Just a big stone structure, in and around which all seems to be hustle and hustle, taxis honking, brakes squeaking, street cars donging, trains whistling, wheels grinding, and people scurrying to and fro—so on the surface seems the Union Station. But, below that surface, as seen through the eyes of the representatives of the Travelers' Aid Society, there is a world of pathos and oftimes humor. The Travelers' Aid Society is an organization supported by public contributions. It aims are to protect women, children, runaways, strangers, illiterates, immigrants, aged or ill, young girls, mental cases, and the inexperienced. It provides or secures, free of charge, direction, information, advice, permanent or temporary lodging, medical and surgical care, legal assistance, and travel service. The society has organizations in one hundred and seventy cities of the United States, and volunteers in 1,237 other cities and towns meet travelers on request. Last year, a million and a half travelers were aided by the representatives of the Travelers' Aid. In their work, the representatives of this society in Washington served during the month of June, 1350 cases, assisted 2159 persons, and met 169 trains. Of this number of persons, personal service was rendered one hundred and seventy Negroes. Many of the cases are pathetic; some are humorous. All are interesting. On one occasion, a lady, appearing to be about eighty years old, arrived at the Union Station from Columbia, S. C., on her way to the White House. She wore no wrap about her shoulders, though her clothes seemed warm, but she was as neat as a pin. Her mission was to complain about her daugh- (Continued on page 8) T, N.W.

McCoy of the District Supreme Court last Monday continued the hearing on the motion to foreclose on the unfinished Masonic building at 10th and U streets, northwest, to August 26. The motion was filed by William L. Houston, a trustee appointed by the court to sell this property. The other trustee, Alexander Wolf, did not join in the motion. The hearing was continued by Chief Justice McCoy upon the plea of Charles P. Ford, grand master of the Most Worshipful Acacia Grand Lodge of Free, Ancient and Accepted Masons of the District of Columbin. He told the court that if granted a reasonable time, he would be able to raise a sufficient amount of money to pay off a trust of $66,000 held by the trustees and a trust of $10,000 held by Samuel J. Solomon, who is also a defendant in the motion to foreclose. The answer of Mr. Ford for the grand lodge discloses that there has been a break between him and Mr. Solomon, who was to complete the building. Mr. Ford alleges that Solomon is financially embarrassed and is unable to raise sufficient money to meet the demands of his creditors. The whole story of the frenzied efforts of the Masonic grand lodge to complete this structure is told in the answer of Mr. Ford to Mr. Houston's motion. ASS'N FOR STUDY OF NEGR HISTORY EXPANDS Bough The Masoni the unfinished auction April was $99.000. mount was pa was due in o The Masonic grand lodge bought the unfinished building at public auction April 12, 1926. The price was $9,000. One-third of this amount was paid cash, another third was due in one year and the balance in two years. Solomon and the grand lodge entered into a contract on May 5, 1926. The contract provided that Solomon should purchase the building from the grand lodge for $75,000 to be paid by his assuming the existing purchase money trust of $66,000 and his paying $9,000 in cash at the date of the transfer. This agreement also provided that he should complete the building substantially in conformity with existing plans within fifteen months from the date of transfer to him, and the grand lodge should buy back the completed building from Solomon, at a price not made Coming Next Week An Interview with Mayor Edw.

Charging that her husband has abandoned her because of her ambitions although he advised her to seek the cultivation of her voice, Mrs. Lillian Evans Tibbs, coloratura soprano, has filed suit in the District Supreme Court against her husband, Roy Wilfred Tibbs, for separate maintenance. Mrs. Tibbs is known in musical circles as Madam Evanti. She has studied in Paris. She has appeared in grand opera in Nice and Monte Carlo and in recital in a number of cities in continental Europe as well as in the United States. Mr. Tibbs is professor of piano and organ in the Howard University school of music. They were married in Gary, Ind., September 10, 1918. At the time Mrs. Tibbs was a teacher in the District public schools. Mr. Tibbs had been teaching at Howard University. He had obtained his degree of bachelor of arts from Oberlin College. They agreed that he should continue and obtain his master's degree and that in the meantime she should continue to teach and support herself. Mr. Tibbs received his master's degree in 1919. He returned to Washington and resumed his work at Howard University. Mrs. Tibbs continued to teach until the birth of their son in 1921. When her maternity leave expired, she returned to the school system and taught until 1924 when she resigned to go The Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, of which Professor John R. Hawkins is president, has enlarged its staff for the purpose of carrying out a new and extensive program, it was announced last week by Dr. Carter G. Woodson, organizer and director. Branches of the association will be organized in all large urban centers and at least one in every section sparsely settled. There is an all but general demand for the extension of this work. Requests for the organization of branches come from roading clubs, literary societies, and churches. There are four important pur- (Continued on page 4) IN WASHINGTON nearly everybody reads the TRIBUNE PRICE FIVE CENTS (Continued on page 4) Liberal Progressive Independent THE PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESS Next week there will be held in New York a meeting of the Pan-African Congress. It is not any easy matter to define this organization and state its aims and purposes. It is still more difficult to determine its composition and membership. From literature that has come to us, we learn that any one may, if he be a Negro, become an active member upon the payment of a stipulated sum, and that white people may participate in the proceedings provided they also pay, the extent of their participation not being exactly defined. The Pan-African Congress historically appears to be the conception of Dr. W. E. B. DuBois. It has usually met in the summer season, when there was a prospect that there would be enough tourists and vacationists at large to make up what might appropriately constitute an assembly. Dr. DuBois himself is much given to travel abroad, and his active mind must have something to ruminate upon while he "wanders on a foreign strand." The announcement of the meeting in New York contains the statement that the Pan-African Congress is unlike the Garvey movement and has no "back to Africa" aim. It then proceeds to set forth in very general terms the objects of the congress, and these embrace practically every topic relating to Negro governments and colonial subjects. As every one knows who can be credited with knowing anything, there is not within the meaning of international law, a single free, independent and equal Negro government anywhere on the face of the earth. Not only this, but with the possible exception of Japan, there is no government of dark men that conforms to the usually accepted international definition of nationality. Whether the Pan-African Congress will serve any other purpose than to provide material for newspaper and magazine craftsmen we do not know. Its objects are either too vague or too all-embracing. There is not enough substance in it to cover the large surface which it seeks to encompass. If it can do no good, it is equally certain it can do no harm If we may have an opinion in the preinises, we would suggest that there must be nationally and locally existing dynamic groups before there can be an international group. The great task, before American Negroes at least, is to so vitalize and solidify the eleven millions that make up their group that these millions may be able to think one thing as to some one subject. That is not true today. Had we not better cease chasing international hares, and give all our energy to national wolves? Nothing is worth more to the mass of people who are incapable of sustained and connected thought than a stereotyped or stock phrase, or expression. The masses think in metaphors and speak in parables. They delight in maxims and proverbs. All great leaders and teachers know this predilection of the popular mind, and adjust their instruction to it. Confucius, the Chinese; Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, the Greeks; Moses, the Israelite, and Jesus of Nazareth, all made use of the short, pithy statement. Benjamin Franklin who is rated as America's wise man, if not wisest man, is known to most people by the maxims and sayings of Poor Richard. Our own Frederick Douglass and Booker Washington exhibited no mean talent in framing striking and telling maxims. "The Negro is not to be measured by the heights to which he has attained, but by the depths from which he has come," said Mr. Douglass. "You can not keep a man in the gutter, without staying in the gutter with him," said Dr. Washington. Words of wisdom and profound philosophy are these, which can not be pondered too much or too often.

If a speaker is not familiar with his subject; if he does not know what he is talking about; if he wants to assail an opposing proposition he will say, "Give us a constructive program. We want something constructive, not destructive." This, of course, is a great tribute to Dr. Washington, but as no elaboration or explanation or analysis is given by the speaker, one is left in the dark as to what he has in his mind. "Constructive" is a very large word, and embraces much, in fact, so much that it leaves the listener suspended in the air. One of the most practically "constructive" things that the Negro needs is the ability to take a business or political proposition and think it through. Many of the recent business failures which have given the race deep concern, pain and distrust have had their origin in the inability or unwillingness of the promoters of enterprises to think the proposition through—to see the end from the the beginning. The Negro is doing many things commendably well. He can do more things and do them better than he now is doing. If he is to go forward he must do more things and better things, and we must and do have faith that he will. He must not, however, let maxims and proverbs take the place of real intensive thinking and doing. LESSONS IN BUSINESS The death of Judge Gary, the chairman of the board of the United States Steel Corporation, is a matter of national interest. He was the successful administrator of what many consider to be our principal basic industry—iron and steel. He lived to an advanced age. He was born in humble circumstances, and by industry and intelligence and great will power reached an eminence in the business world attained by few men in any nation. A race that is seeking to make a place in the world of business can not study too closely or carefully the life and methods of men of the type of Judge Gary. It is great industries such as steel and oil and coal and textiles that largely determine not only economic, but social and political conditions. The matter of transportation is another factor having the most tremendous political and social significance. If the Negro is to take and hold a permanent and prominent place in the world of business, there must be in the group a considerable body of men who have a thorough and commanding understanding of organization, production, distribution and transportation. Judge Gary's life shows how the Negro lawyer may become a significant leader in the business development of the race. The real, well equipped lawyer should know more of the details and ins and outs of business than the practical business man himself. It is not necessary that one approve of Judge Gary's attitude toward organized labor and related questions in order to study his life and methods. The study should be undertaken with a view to promote business efficiency and organization within the race. THE RIP SAW Highland Beach If the stream be pure what matters it, The source from which it burst?" The writer of this column suggests to the citizens of Highland Beach, Md., out of respect and reverence for the memory of the father of the man who made that little community possible, that a tablet, bearing the above inscription, be erected at the entrance to the summer colony so that all who enter may read. The above verse was not suggested by a Sacco-Vanzetti sympathizer or a Washington social climber, but was the view of none other than Frederick Douglass himself. This bit of philosophy was recited by this great fighter for human rights and equality, in a letter dated at Cleveland, Ohio, September 17, 1847. How apropos it is to call this little poem to the attention of Mr. Douglass's grandson who are now a part of the landholding gentry of this thriving summer colony, where the entrance requirement is narrowly fixed (or at least sought to be fixed) so that only persons with certain social affiliations may purchase property or enter the sacred precincts of its environments. Nothing has so stirred the public lately as the publication of the article in The Tribute last week under the caption "Highland Beach Citizens Making Valiant Fight to Keep Sea Shore Exclusive for 'Socially Prominent.'" So startling were the facts that many people were at first unwilling to believe them. They did not want to believe that such an ugly thing was being done on ground now largely controlled by the second generation of a man who gave his life to the fight on segregation and class proscription. Highland Beach as it now shows forth is the result of Booker T. Babbit's first thrill in spending his profits, and he is like a sailor on shore leave, too drunk with false pride and self-inflated importance to know what it is all about. Like a child with Christmas toys, his first impulse is to be selfish. This summer resort is truly Booker T. Babbitt's paradise. Here he rules supreme. Judging from the voters' list, there are not now any preachers in the place to even lend an air of ecclesiastical piety. Booker T. is free to romp and play to his heart's delight. The Negro differs little, regardless of the cline or country in which he is found. A prominent Zion Bishop once said that West Indians made good servants but brutal masters. How true this is of the American Negro. As much as he is segregated simply on account of his racial identity, you would imagine that he of all "God's chillun" would be the last to draw the line. And of all persons, le and behold, he draws it on himself first. How the white property owners of Blomingdale and other sections of the city must chuckle when they read of such acts of exclusion. Now they can go into court and show the justices that Negroes themselves exclude each other; so, surely it is but reasonable that white persons may exclude Negroes from moving into their neighborhoods. Where is our argument in the Curtis case? On what grounds can we stand in any future residential segregation fight? Chickene have a peculiar way of coming home to roost, you know. How long must the Negro race pay the price for such pin-head snobbery? Very few of us are more than two generations removed from slavery. Who can stand at the fork of the road with clean hands and say "you can, but you cannot"? There is so much good in the most of us, and so much bad in the most of us, and so much bad in the behoove any of us to try and exclude the rest.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, AUGUST 19, 1927 MUSIC FORUM By Wellington Adams MUSICAL ERRANTS Few people care to expend much money per lesson or per month on music and few people care to spend as much time in study as they would in socializing. At the beginning of every music season the music studio of private teachers and conservatories are crowded with would-be professors of music, artists and musicians. Many of them express an ardent desire to accomplish something in the music world and if the teachers would believe them they would soon astound the world with their genius. Others bring their children and tell what they expect the little ones to accomplish. Well meaning to be sure, but far stretched in imagination. In the first place many deem it unnecessary to spend an adequate sum for a musical education, thinking it a minor essential, and an unnecessary expense as a whole. They would wait and see what is accomplished before acceding to larger expenditures in the case. Twenty-five or fifty cents is enough tuition per lesson most people think and then they do not always go to their recitals as appointed. The thing we wish to emphasize however, is, if you would have a real musical education you may as well decide now to prepare to spend as dearly for it as you would for a medical or other professional career. Music is not a whit behind any other profession despite the common belief. The other type of music seeker who would study music merely to star as a social butterfly or social climber is a nuisance. Many of them care more for the club party, dance or swell fete than for their educational advancement. They would spend an entire evening at a card table or on the arm of an escort at the dance without a whimper hardly ever tiring, still they would complain if urged to study their music lesson just one-half hour without a pause. Could one ever expect success in music socializing all the time? Has any one ever gained success in any particular sphere whiling away the time needed in earliest study at big-time functions, large or small? Every minute lost thus is set against future successes as a fractional failure in life. Washington is chocked full of this class of musical errants. The proof of the fact is that hardly ten out of a hundred ultimately make good in music and perhaps that estimate is too high an average Repairing & Towing General Overhauling Battery Recharging Call Gaskins—Decatur 1376 Rear 309 T St., N.W.

My address is WINNERS IN THE BAD SPELL ING STORY CONTEST Once upon a time there was a man who had a horse. The horse was blind in one eye and he was lame. The man lived near Freedman's Hospital and his horse would get loose every night and go over on a field where he should not go. One day the man said to the horse, "I am going to sell you. You are lazy and blind and no good. I am going to sell you at any price and I don't care what becomes of you." So the next day he sold the horse to a man, and the man said, "I guess the horse will be of some use to me, if I am kind to him." He took the horse with him. His home was in the country. He let the horse out in the field where there was a lot of nice green grass. The horse became fat and when the first owner saw the horse he was sorry he had sold him.

In falling his weight had numbed his arm. Checkers made his way over to the foot of one of the huge builders which was covered with moss and vines. He swung up on one of the vines, but saw that he could never reach the top. Not disinheartened, however, he explored farther. A path about as wide as the spread of your hand, caught his attention. It ran between two boulders and lost itself in a clump of dried grass. He took a stick and prodded the path clear of pebbles. An article caught his attention. He dragged it to him and picked it up. It was a dirty piece of cloth. He unfolded it and looked at it in amazement. A ragged bandana handkerchief recently used! Impossible! He sat on a flat rock and gazed once more at the article in his hand. Could it be possible that someone else was there in the canyon, too? Mindless of his aching arm, he returned to the spot where he had found the handkerchief. He tried to push the boulder to one side but without avail. Kneeling, he followed the path with his eye as far as he could see. Puzzled, he walked around the steep sides of the canyon on a narrow ledge. Then, to his joy, he saw an opening before him. He walked boldly through, out onto a huge table-like rock. He dropped quickly to his hands and knees because fully eighty feet ahead of him was a man who was smoking a cigarette. He was garbed in cowboy clothes. Checkers was hidden by a clump of tall buffalo grass. He saw the man rise and stretch himself and look around, then from behind a pile of rocks came another man. They began talking. Our hero could hear what they were, saving, because the wind The Winners More Buddies CHECKERS blowing in his direction. The man whom Checkers had seen first said, "Well, Jim, the folks up in Tulle are beginning to hear news of the mine, it's best we lay low for a while after this haul." The other one responded, "Yes but since nobody knows that there is an entrance to the Canyon, we're O.K." Our hero chuckled when he he learned that there was an exit. Then the two men turned and walked off in the opposite direction from that that Checkers used when he first discovered them. Checkers followed cautiously, hiding behind rocks. At a good vantage point Checkers saw the men stop in front of the same little path in which he had found the handkerchief. Kneeling, one fumbled under the huge boulder for a while and then he stood up. To Checkers' ears came a grating sound—the big rock had swung back like a door and there was an opening out of the canyon. Something attracted their attention and they failed to close this opening, as they turned in another direction to some tall tufts of grass. One knelt and took a bunch of weeds in his hands and tugged. Up sprang a cleverly hidden trap-door. Checkers waited where he was. His arm bothered him, and he was tired. He could discern a discolored board on the ground near him, on which he read—"Dendon Gold Mine." Could this be the mine that his uncle had found and had written about? After the letter was received, no more was ever heard of Dan Dendon. The men emerged with a bag, no doubt of gold. They shut the trapdoor with a clang. From his hiding place Checkers could see in all directions. From the north there arose a commotion. Checkers shielded his eyes to look. There was a group of men riding hard and coming toward the canyon. He quickly turned toward the opening, if that group could only reach the gap before the two men came out and noticed them! Checkers' body tingled all over, then—everything was black. When our hero opened his eyes, he found himself looking up into the face of Mr. Fairfax. He stirred but found his arm bandaged. An elderly man smiled down at him. Looking around, he saw three men guarding the two who were in the canyon! He shut his eyes for a moment then opened them. He said slowly, "Mr. Jack—I've found Uncle Dan's mine—the one we believe that he was killed for. But where and how did you get here?" Mr. Fairfax explained, "When my plane crashed, I landed near the home of the doctor you see here. He found me and treated me for my bruises. The plane is being salvaged and he told me of your possible alighting near this place, so we came out here. On our way out we ran across these two birds," nodding to the tied men, "we followed them to ask them whether they had seen you. They eluded us and we followed to satisfy our curiosity and here we are. We'll proceed to New York as soon as you get well enough. Tomorrow perhaps." They lifted Checkers upon the horse and walked slowly beside him as the others rode on ahead. The sun sank in the west, a star appeared here and there, and the caravan of the night reached the doctor's house. (To be continued next week.) HOWARD UNIVERSITY By Walter R. Jackson (13) Howard University, the capstone of American Negro education, is indeed a place of which Negroes of today should feel proud. With its many colleges, buildings and teachers it has won fame in the educational world. Howard University was established in 1865 by General Oliver O. Howard. Dr. W. W. Patton, the first president, gave his undivided attention to the university. During his term many donations were made to erect buildings and to give Howard a chance to advance. Other presidents of the university were J. E. Rankin, John Gordon, Wilbur P. Thirkield, Stephen M. Newman and J. Stanley Durkee, all playing some important part in the university's improvement. But let us forget the past for a while and think of Dr. Mordecia W. Johnson, present president of the university. He has the honor of being the first colored president of Howard University. It is our duty to help Howard University because some day our sons and daughters may attend there, and we may then with much pride say, "I helped to build Howard University."

Private Ambulance Phone, Franklin 3108 M. S. S. JOHN H. HARRIS DARE-DEVIL DOHERTY Face to Face with Death "LEAP For LIFE in FLAMES" Remarkable Exhibition of Daring and Skill The population of Marianna resided mostly to the eastward, of the village and there was no segregation of the races. People lived where they could secure what they desired. All of the houses were of pine lumber construction, a few on the outskirts being constructed of logs, and generally known as "log cabins." Most of the houses were built on the one-story plan. Additions to houses were made as they were needed by family increase or otherwise. A few of the houses occupied by the merchants and professional whites, who were restricted in number, were imposing edifes, with spacious front yards, in which all sorts of beautiful flowers were cultivated, and large back yards called gardens, in which all the vegetables required by the owners, were raised in abundance. It is quite wonderful how many vegetables can be grown on a small plot of land. And it is remarkable what a leading part vegetables can play in supplying the table and cutting down the cost of living. Fresh meat was a luxury, seldom indulged in except on Sunday, and then it usually consisted of fresh fish caught by a member of the family on Saturday, or fowls of some sort, a great variety of which were raised. Most of the village people owned a cow or two and had all the milk and butter needed and at first hand. Corn meal pone, cooked in many ways, all of them good, salt pork and cabbage, or turnip tops, and sweet potatoes, "yams" that make the mouth to water by thinking of them, so sugary sweet were they, made up the ration of the average family. There was also plenty of molasses and raw sugar, grown by the farmers and sold for a song to the village people. And there was plenty of fruits,—apples, peaches, plums and grapes,—and everybody had a grape arbor. Everybody had plenty to eat and it did not cost much. Those who had plenty were always ready and willing to divide with those so fortunate as to have but little. All this was after war times and during several years following. Country people are more neighborly and helpful to each other than city people. They are all friends or relatives and borrow from one another without ever expecting to pay back except in kind. A child would often trudge five miles to Timothy's house, on arriving saving; "My ham say will you please loan or a peck o' meal and a bit o' salt 'twill daddy cum home." Daddy would be away in some other part of the county working on a job and might be gone a week or many weeks. But the "paying back" was always considered a form of words and meant nothing. The white academy had been closed during the civil war, and the white children did not have any school to go to. The academy opened about the same time the church opened for school for the Negro children under the soldier school masters. Bad feeling was shown at once by the white children. As the colored children had to pass the academy to reach the church, it was easy for the white children to annoy them with taunts and jeers and with commands that they go round another way to reach their school. Bitter words became common with both colors, and it was easily to be seen that a bad situation was being developed. The colored children were not disposed to accept without resenting it, the attitude of the white children towards them, and in a war of words they were as much at home as the white children. The war passed from words to pebbles and stones, which the white children began to hurt at the colored children. Several of the latter had been struck and badly hurt by flying stones, and as they had not resented the rock and stone throwing in kind (because they were timid about going that far), the white children became more aggressive and abusive, taking it for granted that the colored children were too cowardly to fight. In this they were mistaken. One morning soon after the rock throwing had been started by the white children, the colored children gathered on the outskirts of the village, some distance from the academy, with their school on the other side, and showed a disposition to be afraid to pass the academy. Timothy came along about this time and took the lead in urging his school fellows to go on to their school, and to fight hard if necessary. All the pupils, at Timothy's suggestion, armed themselves with stones of all sizes, and determined to fight their way pass the academy to their school. The colored children approached the academy in mass formation, whereas in the past they had been going by it in pairs or small groups. Timothy was in the front of his group, when they reached hailing distance of the academy half dozen white boys rushed out and hurled their missiles, acting as if they expected to stampede their opponents. Instead of scampering away, however, the colored children not only stood their ground and hurled their missiles, but maintained a solemn silence. The white children then, seeing there was no backing down and scampering, as they expected, came rushing out of the four sides of the academy, and charged the colored children, who stood their ground stubbornly. During some fifteen minutes it was a real tug of war between them, with little ground given by either side. In the close fighting the colored children got the advantage, gradually, and began to shove the white children back, and as they pressed the advantage, the white children broke away and ran for the academy. The colored fighters did not follow them but made it hot for the laggards until they also took to their heels. When the scrap was about ended a white boy named Goiter, emerging from behind one of the big oaks on the academy grounds, hurled a small cobble stone, which struck Timothy on the lower part of the spine and threw him down flat. It was many years after, before Timothy ceased to feel and suffer from the chance shot of the enemy. There were many bruised on both sides, but none seriously, but it taught the white youngsters to leave the colored ones alone thereafter. They had enough fighting and never interfered again with the free going and coming of the colored school children. The scrap was regarded as a children's affair by the grown-ups, and ended at that. But I have a mind that the white grown-ups with the unrising occasioned by the murder of young Gilbert still in their minds, were uncertain about the free Negro and advised their children to leave the colored children alone.

Among the teachers who have purchased sites are; Miss A. V. Smith, Miss Mary F. Quander, Mrs. Mary B. Robinson, Mrs. S. Gray, Messrs. Heathman, Layard H. Hughes, Harry J. Robinson, Booker T. Brent, and N. A. Murray. Another year will produce a thriving colony at Cedar Haven, if developments move forward there next year as fast as they have this year. Building and development has progressed most rapidly. The developing company has built the bath house; is improving the roads, the streets, and the beach. The construction of a very large pier awaits a permit from the Maryland Rivers and Harbors authorities. This permit is necessary, as the Patuxent is a navigable stream. The company plans a pier that will extend away out over the water. It will contain a long promenade, diving stands, and docking space. The extreme end of the pier will be oblong in shape, and will be large enough for dancing. So, with fishing, crabbing, boating, and bathing, great things are in storp for the "Cedar Haven of the future." Private Development Private villas also, are fast taking form at Cedar Haven. We told last week that Mr. Thompson, one of the directors of the Prudential Bank, has completed his summer home this year. Mr. Harrison, Washington caterer, has completed a resort cafe, which is now open to the public. Let the TRIBUNE follow you on your vacation. COLTON, MD.

Alston Bequeaths Estate The idea of profit and loss is even emphasized in this instance, however, in the case of Mr. Als- ton, for in his passing, the School of Law not only loses one whose place was in many respects unique iz the ranks of the alumni, but the University as residuary legatee un- der his will, becomes the ultimate bensiiciary of sm estate estimated at $50,000.

ASSOCIATION PREPARES FOR EXPANSIVE PROGRAM (Continued from page 1) poses in establishing local branch- es: To save such records of the Negro as old newspapers, books out of print, receipts, manumis- sion papers, deeds, wills, and the like, beating on the past of the Negro; to secute the co-operation of a number of persons who will learn to tell intelligently to the children in schools and churches interesting stories of distinguished Negroes who have achieved things worth while; and to promote. the actual study of the Negro in a class or club proceeding according to a definite outline and under the supervision of the Director of the Association. ‘Two New Workers ‘To carry out this program the association has employed a field secretary and a financial agent. The field secretary is John J. Mc- Kinley of Chicago. He comes to the association with the prestige of thorough training at the Uni- versiy of Chicago and with the ex- perience of an instructor at Win- ston-Salem Teachers’ College in North Carolina. Dr. Robert C. Woods, former President of Virginia Seminary, s been appointed financial agent. He will endeavor to stimulate friends of the organization to Greater endeavor and he will help in the drive of the association for $20,000 to publish juvenile litera- ture of the Negro. With his ripe scholarship, broad experience and wide acquaintance, he will doubt- Yess be an important factor in the vapid expansion of the work.

Paul Goodwin Wins District Amateur Golf Crown Lion Gridders Report to Coach Morrison Sept.12 Paul Good Lion G Sam'sScripts The Tribune will attempt to have some photos made of the nationals at Hampton, and these will be carried in next week's issue. "‘Ole Sol’ was all wet” last Sunday and if there were any sandlot games around town they were surely not in town. No games were played in the Tribune League, all of the Union Leaguers idled and the Black Sox-Myrtle contest was rained out. The few spectators who ventured out to the Fifteenth and H Streets Ball Lot were drenched to the skin by the sudden downpour which came during the Myrtle wand drill. Ben Taylor, aided by his many scouts and constituents finally persuaded “Meiji” Monroe, 1827 Bison Baseball captain, to don a Baltimore Black Sox uniform. Monroe who has guarded the hot corner for the Washington Black Sox all season, has been sought ever since the close of school, and when the bus accident forced Ben Taylor out of the game the Baltimoreans became desperate. He is filling the vacancy left by the shifting of "Babe" Wilson to first base. In Thursday's game with the Daisies he handled his two chances perfectly and garnered one of the 8 bingles the Sox secured off Nip Winters. "And ole Felix was jes-a-flyin." Had the boss's kid brother down on the tennis courts—where the Monumental Club holds its daily hang out—Tuesday morning. While he strenuously objects to the "Kid Brother" stuff we are forced to admit that his antics as a tennis player did have a slight resemblance to those of the comedy artist who portrayed the character in the screen sketch recently. Since that morning it has been a question of doubt between "Mac" (the guy who used to write the "Footlights" stuff) and me as to whether or not Felix was really serious. "Fairplay" who does a nifty and nasty bit of pen work for the Evening Star at times, pulled one of his usual stunts Monday evening before the Maloney-Godfrey bout when he wrote a commentary article which entirely ignored the Colored fighter and removed him as even a possible winner. Accepting Maloney as the inevitable victor, the gentleman who makes a practice of seeing to it that the very 'infinitesimal existence' of Negro athletes is as miserable as possible, went on to cite how Maloney would climb again to the heights he attained before being knocked off his perch by Jack Sharkey a few months ago. With Godfrey out of the way, Maloney would again be allowed the chance to settle an old score with some barely known boxfigher whose handle is Leo Gates and whose ratation lies in his'knockout of the Bostonian sometime ago. "If he can win over Gates he will again be a contender," said "Fairplay." Wonder what the scribe can do for Maloney now? So it has been proved—"The pen is mightier than the sword." A LETTER TO THE EDITOR 一 Sports Editor, The Washington Tribune. I have taken great interest in the last four ball games the Washington Monarchs have played. I think they have one of the leading pitching staffs of the Washington Tribune League. Stanley Corby and Walter Kelly are the main-stay. Kelly was about to win his third straight victory Sunday, when rain broke up the game with the Washington Pirates. In 4 innings Kelly had struck out 11 Pirates. A crowd of nearly 500 were on hand to see the games. I am very glad the Tribune League is becoming so successful and so popular. Yours truly, A FAN. SWEEPSTAKES AT COUNTRY CLUB A Ball Sweepstakes Event will be held through Saturday and Sunday, August 20 and 21, at the National Capital Country Club. Mr. John M. Shippen, club professional, is in charge of the affair. Prizes will be awarded the winners of the loss gross and low net scores. Play begins at 3 p.m. THE SPORT REVIEW PUBLIC LINKS PLAYER ELIMINATES YOUNG SHIPPEN ON 20TH GREEN GOODWIN WINNER OF D. C. AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIP Paul Pleasants Goodwin, youthful golfing star of the Citizens' Golf Club, won the District of Columbia Amateur Golf Championship by defeating young Jack Shippen 1 up on the twentieth hole of the rain-scaked National Capital Country Club course last Sunday afternoon. Goodwin, who has been accepting the publicity afforded him through his recent links victories without a murmur, has been, in a way, wronged. Pleasants, as he has been called in all previous golf stories, is the champion's second name rather than his surname. The entire name, we learn is just what we called him at the beginning of this article—Paul Pleasants Goodwin. Both Goodwin and Shippen were off the first tee with good drives. The former's approach stopped on the edge of the green while the latter's lay 4 feet from the cup. Shippen missed the short put and allowed the hole to be halved. Goodwin took both the second and third holes. He lost the fourth hole however, as the result of a sliced drive. Shippen's tee shot carried the green and he hank a par 3. From this point on, the rivals sawed, each winning alternate holes. With the match all even on the eighteenth tee, Goodwin threw away a splendid opportunity to end the match. Both players were well over the green their drives, and their approach shots failed to reach the green. Shippen barely got on with his stond approach, while Goodwin we to the far side. With only a few separating his ball and the cu Goodwin tapped the ball past the hole and forced the match into overtime. After topping his drive into the twentieth fairway, Goodwin made a fine recovery to lay his ball with a few yards of the hole. Shinpen drove out of bounds, but laid his second tee shot close to the green. He finished with a 5. Goodwin sank a 10 foot put for a par four and the Amateur Championship of the District of Columbia. John Cook defeated Chester White 5 and 4 in the handicap final. Among the large number of spectators that came out to see the finals were Dr. and Mrs. Fletcher Barber, Miss Helen Tolbert, Mrs. Jack Shippen, Mrs. Lelia Eaton and Mr. and Mrs. Mortimer M. Harris. NOTES OF THE COUNTRY CLUB The National Capital Country Club is situated on the Baltimore-Washington Boulevard before reaching Laurel, Md. The distance is estimated at about 16 miles from the District line. A golf team from Baltimore, headed by Mr. Hawkins of Rolling road, will meet the C. G. C. team in a 36-hole match over the course of the National Capital Country Club, Sunday, August 21, beginning at 10:30 a.m. Now that the golf course at the Country Club is open, Washington and Baltimore society are taking to the ancient Scotch game like ducks to water. The score of 71 for 18 holes made by Beltran Barker. Saturday before last is a record that will probably stand for a long time. The club has received a request from the United States Colored Golfers Association, asking permission to hold a championship tournament at the club, October 22 and 23. The finals of the local championships under the auspices of the Citizens Golf Club will be played on the links of the Country Club on August 14 at 10 a.m. GOFF WINS SOUTHEASTERN NORFOLK, Va. — Marcellus Goff, Howard University graduate, by virtue of a 6-2, 1-6, 6-4 6-4 victory over C. W. Furlong of Smithfield, N. C., won the Southeastern Tennis Championship held here last week. Lenore Cooke, another Washingtonian, was defeated in the semi-finals.

HILLDALES EASILY DOWN WEAKENED BLACK SOX INJURED SOX LOSE PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 11—Due to a collision of the Black Sox bus that occurred Monday, the Baltimore team presented a line-up of matched up players to battle Hilldale in the Thursday afternoonuss. Manager Ben Taylor suffered the most severe injuries and ill be out of the game for several weeks with lacerations that retained 20 stitches. Dick Jackson played with his chin swathed in inages and Bill Monroe, a result from Washington, playedird base. Nip Winters opposed Tarleton Strong on the mound and Hilldale bagged the contest in rather easy fashion by the score of 8 to 1. The Daisies took advantage of the Sox loose fielding in the fourth inning, with the result that two errors, Briggs' single, Winters' double and Jake Stevens' triple over Holloway's head shoved over four runs and sewed up the contest. The fourth inning settled Strong, and Rube Jokely who succeeded him was wild and unsteady in the next two frames. Nip Winters, after being nicked for a run in the first inning, held the visitors in check. The Sox made a bid for some scores in the third inning, with runners on first and third and none out, Stevens grabbed Wilson's grounder and started a rapid double play. Warfield's fielding and the hitting of Thomas stood out for the home team. Eggleston and Jackson each garnered two blows for the Sox.

AUGUST 19. 1927 PANTHERS GAIN IN RACE; TRIM AND TIE POTOMACS The Potomac Giants lost their chances of winning first place honors in Class A of the Washington Tribune Baseball League by losing the first game and allowing the Panthers to tie second game. The score was 11-8 and 9-9. The opener was a contest in which the teams fought teeth to teeth for 4 innings, with the Potomacs matching each alien score. Each club counted twice in the first, once in the second and twice in the third, but in the fourth the Elites outdistanced their rivals by 1 counter getting 4 markers to the Potomacs' 3. Neither Richardson nor Moten, starting hurlers could finish the first game. Leading 9-5 up to the final frame the Potomacs let victory be snatched from them when the Panthers jumped on "Pickles" Fells' offerings and tied the count. The game was called at the close of the tenth.

BOLDEN EASTERN LEAGUE COMMISSIONERS ARRANGE POST-PONED GAMES ATLANTIC CITY, Aug. 13—The commissioners of the Eastern Colored Baseball League held a meeting here at the office of president Nutter. Ed. Bolden, the former leader of the league was elected to the post of secretary-treasurer made vacant by Jim Keenan automatically resigning the post when the Lincoln Giants were dropped from the league. The matter of arranging postponed games was the chief business of the meeting. Many games have been rained out and others, because of difficulties with park authorities and conditions at Bradley Beach, N.J., have necessitated arrangements for games to be played elsewhere. SLAP-BANG, GODFREY MALONEY PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Aug. 5—It took George Godfrey, long known as the "Shadow of Leiperville" just one minute and twenty-five seconds to prove beyond a shadow of doubt that he could whip the sap out of Jim Maloney, the heavyweight from Beantown. Less than two minutes of milling at Shibe Park here tonight and the big Irishman was juggling stars. The kayo came as the result of a heavy right and two crashing lefts to the Boston fighter's jaw. There is little that can be said of the bout except that Maloney landed several hard rights to the head and stomach, but these blows did not even phase the Negro fighter. Godfrey seemed slow starting, but apparently—that's just his disposition. BUSINESS AND PROFESSION AL MEN ON FISHING TRIP R. M. Richardson. Doctors Carson, Price, and Tignor. Messrs. Todd and Voyes, of Philadelphia, Mrs. Hughes, Dr. Branch of Camden, N.J., and Miss L. Crane, of Atlantic City, N.J., enjoyed a fishing trip to Colton, Md.

LINCOLN COACH ISSUES CALL LINCOLN COACH ISSUES CALL LINCOLN FOOTBALL SQUAD TO REPORT SEPT. 12 The candidaes for the Lincoln University football team are being called for the twelfth of the coming month. Realizing that they are facing one of the hardest schedules that a Lincoln team has been called on to wade through for many years, the coaches and players will make every effort to meet the situation. Dr. Morrison is busy watching over the construction of a new charging machine of his own design that can be used by both the linemen and backs. Dummy pits, bucking straps, and all the other field equipment that will be used during the season are now being made ready. Graduation has not been kind to the football squad. This year tried material will be missing. But it is expected that the incoming freshman class will bring some promising material. Large gaps will have to be closed up both in the line and backfield. Each game will be an objective and the team will be brought along gradually during the season. The team will be on the road for every game and much care will be exercised to keep the entire squad from going stale. Lincoln's new athletic policy will be one of expansion as many of the general student body will be required to take active part in the various sports and from them will be drawn the men for the varsity teams. Provisions will be made to handle at least one hundred men in the track squad on the opening day of school. The intramurals will be held about the middle of October. This will be her first fall track meet. The same forces will be behind the various other sports such as basketball, tennis, volley ball, soccer and cricket. Tribune League # STANDING Class A— W. L.

Oscar Charleston, perhaps the greatest Negro outfielder in baseball, will appear here in two games, one next Thursday and the other next Friday. These games are scheduled to get under way at 4:30 p.m. sharp, at the American League Ball Park. The Harrisburg Giants, of which Charleston is the manager, has an array of ball stars that cannot be easily matched in the East. With such stallar lights as Heavy Johnson, Cannady, Backwith, Fat Jenkins and Gomez in their line-up the Senators promise to give worth while competition to any club. They deserve to come to Washington well heralded, since so few of the fans here fully realize the calibre of the Pennsylvanians. Ben Taylor's crew, with Yokely pitching experienced little difficulty in handing the Washington Black Sox a sound lacing at the American League Park, here yesterday, 13-2. A crowd of about 1500 persons witnessed the proceedings. SUBURBAN GARDENS TO HAVE THRILLER FOR THE PATRONS DARE-DEVIL DOHERTY TO STAGE LEAP FOR LIFE THE WEEK OF AUG. 21 The Suburban Gardens management has adopted a new policy for the balance of the summer. Starting Sunday, August 21, there will be a series of exhibitions given by a number of sensational and spectacular acts of the outdoor show world. The first big feature act secured for Suburban Gardens will be Dare-Devil Doherty, who will offer his latest and greatest thriller, called "The Leap for Life in Flames." This daring cyclist will entertain the visitors every evening at 10 o'clock and on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. He will appear on scheduled time at a location that will enable everyone on the grounds to witness his wonderful performance. Doherty rides down an inline from a summit high in the air mounted on a picycle. In flames he dashes down the shute and near its terminus suddenly leaves the steep grade and flies through the air at the rate of a hundred miles an hour, landing on another platform and riding to safety. This will be the first time that the "Leap for Life in Flames" has been shown in this section of the country. Every man, woman, and child should witness this remarkable exhibition of daring and skill. Doherty is the only man in the entire world performing this extraordinary feat. SORE LEGS HEALLED.

Aug. 15.—In another ten days Tuskegee's football campaign will be launched. Notices have been sent out to members of last year's varsity squad, prospects from the scrub teams, and others listed as available to play to report to the Alumni Bowl on Thursday, September first for the initial work-out and practice. This will give the squad four weeks' preparation before the opening game with Straight College of New Orleans Louisiana, on October first. Only six of the first string ever victorious team of last fall among those who will report, with Head Coach Abbott starts 1 search for men to fill the other positions. The outlook for backfield is very bright. The give forward wall that held all come for the last three years has badly depleted. Backfield Material The opening of football practice coming one week before the beginning of the school term, allows only six hours of instruction for the week. The presence of sterling backfield material is the one bright spot in the outlook for the eleven, and if the line comes through in good fashion, followers of the team expect a good season. Commenting on the general prospects for the Tigers, Coach Abbott stated that the main handicaps at present are the lack of a forward passer and the absence of reserves for the line. Abbott's Statement "I propose to devote a great deal of time to the development of a forward passer and line replacements," stated Coach Abbott. "The first two weeks will consist of light drills, limbering-up exercises and the combining of new material for likely prospects," he continued. Incoming football material is of unknown quality, but the hope is expressed that promising line timber will be located among the newcomers. Ernest T. Bailey, of Columbus, Mississippi, Tuskegee's great plunging halfback, will lead the 1927 Tigers, and will report for the first practice along with the other regulars from last year's eleven.

Francis. This production is directed by W. Billie Dove in "The Tender Hour" George Fitzmaurice and shows the tragedy hidden behind the many business marriages of the rich. "Tender Hour" particularly applies to the marriages of American girls to European title holders. The splendid characters in this picture are well known to theatre goers from their past performances and this together, with beauty, love and pathos make this a very pleasing and entertaining photoplay. On Wednesday and Thursday, August 24 and 25 will be double feature days with the outstanding attraction behind "Blind Alleys" with Thomas Meighan, supported by Evelyn Brent and Greta Nissen. This is a new type of story for Meighan, it being fast moving and set to the hectic tempo of New York. There are many thrills, one being when Tom is hit by a taxi at Times Square, and more when Greta Nissen is shanghaged in a taxi, and even more in the strong love between the man and the beautiful woman. The second of the double fea Lincoln Theatre U Street at 12th Direction, A. E. Lichtman Under Howard Management C. H. Deans, Mgr. Reg. Freeman, Asst. Mgr. ture bill, will be "Getting Gertie's Garter" featuring Marie Prevost and Charles Ray. This is the comedy sensation of the year, it has many thrilling andaky moments which unfold with genuine and incasing humor. On Friday and Saturday, August 26 and 27, will be seen a picture that shows the true life of the race track as it really is, being the "Sunset Derby" featuring Mary Astor, William Collier, Jr. and Ralph Lewis. This is a picture crowded with swiftly moving action of the race track, but unlike most of these picture it casts no reflection on the sport. There is no suggestion of dishonesty of any sort, but is dedicated to the ancient sport of horse racing in general. All through this picture there is a delightful game of love and light comedy, and in addition to the showing of this picture on Saturday only there will be three big talent shows at 5, 7:15 and 9:15. Important Announcement With the coming of the fall season and the showing of the big productions heretofore announced through the columns of this paper, the next thought of the management is the improving of the present equipment and to this end the management is installing a new and complete projection outfit and other equipment. "THE THIRD DEGREE" AT THE BROADWAY On Sunday and Monday the Broadway Theatre will present one of the most thrilling melodramas ever screened in "The Third Degree" with Do尔斯 Costello, Louise Dresser, Rockliffe Fellowes, Tom Santchi, Jason Robards, Kate Price and David Torrence. From the cast alone you may judge the type of picture you will see. It is an expose of the police method of torture to make persons confess to crimes they know nothing of. In this case the daughter is the only one who knows that her husband is about to be sent to the electric chair for a crime that her own mother committed even though under torture he confesses he was the guilty one. On Tuesday, one day only. "The Heart Thief" with Joseph Schildkraut and Lya De Putti. This is a dramatic story that is thrilling, amusing and appealing. Wednesday and Thursday, America's great emotional actress, Pauline Frederick in "Her Honor the Governor," the story of a woman who had to face the ordeal of her son being sentenced to die in the THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE electric chair for murder while she is governor of the state. To see Miss Frederick master this wonderful situation will make you proclaim this one of the greatest pictures of the season. The week will close on Friday and Saturday with the tense story of a married woman who loved another man. You cannot judge who was right until you see Jetta Gouldal in "Fighting Love." and shows the not only to the those who are unutterable chaos fering that the about together w in the finale m pleasing photoplot On Friday m midnight ramble Tickets for the go on sale at the theatre on Sr "WATERMELONS" AT THE HOWARD NEXT WEEK For the week beginning Monday, August 22, the Howard Theatre management has secured another one of last year's outstanding shows from the Columbia Circuit. This now makes the fifth or last year's Columbia Circuit shows that have been obtained by the Howard management this summer. "Watermelons" is an all colored THE FASHIONIST Florence Vidor in 'Afraid to Love' A Paramount Picture show of twenty-five singers and dancers. This show last season while on the road broke many house records. The show is headed by Andrew Tribble whose ability needs no introduction for wit and humor.

In addition to the showing of "Watermelons" on the stage there will also be shown on the screen for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, "Afraid to Love" with Florence Vidor. It is a story of a beautiful young woman who sacrificed her beauty to win a husband. Norman Trevor and Mary Carr support Miss Vidor. On Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday will be seen the "Price of Honor," with Dorothy Revier and Malcolm McGregor. It deals with the unfairness of convicting a man on circumstantial evidence and shows the evil that is done not only to the accused, but to those who are his friends. The unutterable chaos, misery and suffering that these things bring about together with the love theme in the finale make this a very pleasing photoplay. On Friday night the regular midnight ramble will be held. Tickets for the midnight ramble go on sale at the box office of the theatre on Sr day of the week before the show. Announcement The Howard Theatre will be closed for the week of August 29. It will hold its gala fall opening on Monday, September 5.

AUGUST 19. 1927 HOWARD THEATER HOWARD THEATER This Week until Sunday---CLARA SMITH and her Revue Big Midnight Ramble, Friday Night, 12:15 Sharp NOTE:—CLOSED WEEK OF AUG. 29—GRAND FALL RE-OPENING ON MON., SEPT. 5th Footlights By "Mac" Clara Smith, the widely known recording artist of "Moanful Blues," is playing at the Howard Theatre this week with her "Black-bottom Revue." The show, which of itself is a good one, is enhanced by the appearance of Clara Smith toward the end of the revue in several numbers. Aside from her singing of the blues, she seems to be a born comedian, which keeps the audience in a receptive mood for the songs she sings. The principals who make the show a good one are Hegzekiah Jenkins, the leading comedian, Millie Holmes, Alice Pamsey, the girl with the wicked eyes and sweet voice; Bruce Johnson, better known as Washboard; Nellie Matthews, one of the only female colored acrobats; Jimmy Miley, straight man; Clarence Parsons, who plays the accompaniment for Miss Smith's singing, and who can sing a very good tenor himself; Samuel Randolph, musical director; Willie Williams, comedian; and Ruth Trent, a favorite in Washington, soubrette. Al Stevens, who is managing the show, states that a number of added attractions have been secured to make the midnight show a "wow." The show is produced by Jack Goldberg, who is also the producer of the show coming next week, "Watermelons," with Andrew Tribble in the leading role. Jimmy Miley, the straight man, and assistant stage manager, is a former Washington boy. Before hearing the "call of the stage," he used to ride mail here. None of the chorus girls, however, are Washingtonians. At the Lincoln Theatre, Edith Waddell does some very good singing for the benefit of the audiences. She has a sweet voice and her stage presence is good. Her songs seem to be put over in an original manner which makes them very appealing. FRIEND OF RACE CELEBRATES 65th BIRTHDAY CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 18 (PNS) On last Friday Julius Rosenwald, founder of Sears, Roebuck & Co., celebrated his 65th birthday. Negroes are especially grateful to Mr. Rosenwald for his broad- mindedness and generous interest in their religious and educational advancement.

Allen LETTERS TO THE EDITOR To the Editor of the Washington Tribune: We have read with deep concern the several articles appearing in your paper relative to Dr. Wm. A Warfield and Freedmen's Hospital. We, the undersigned, knowing that these articles do not bespeak the true situation, wish to affirm, emphasize and make public our confidence in the ability, integrity and efficiency of the Surgeon-in-chief of Freedmen's Hospital. We feel that he is an eminent physician and surgeon, an able administrator, a tactful and diplomatic official, and a worthy citizen of the community. Any differences which may seem to exits between us is merely one of an interpretation of laws which he did not make, and not differences due to any harsh dealings meted out to us by him. We believe he acts in good faith, uninfluenced by any base motives or desires. We fully realize that the hospital is maintained for the good of the public and we desire to inform it that peace and harmony prevail in our ranks; that we stand firmly behind Dr. Warfield and his administration, and will co-operate with him to the utmost extent to serve the community in the most efficient manner, in the future as in the past. We do not believe that he has become fossilized, but on the other hand we are of the opinion that his long years of honorable service places him in an excellent position to cope with the ever-increasing demands of the community for efficient hospital administration.

Assistant Surgeon Defends Dr. Warfield The Editor of the Tribune: Permit me to give a few personal observations, in addition to the statements issued by the group, collectively. First of all I wish to state most emphatically, I have no ax to grind and no ambition to realize. For fifteen years I have been intimately associated with Dr. Warfield as a medical student, an interne and staff official, as well as with the Freedmen's Hospital. For seven years I have been his first assistant and feel that my close contact with his administration enables me to speak with some authority. I am a constant reader of your paper and firmly believe that your desire is to honestly serve the community, and evidently, to my mind, your attacks upon Dr. Warfield and Freedmen's Hospital are based upon misinformation. As a general proposition discord does not exist, and demoralization in the personnel of the hospital is merely a dream. The work has not come to a standstill, and the institution is not a rut. There is no better evidence of this than that the last rating of the American College of Surgeons, which not only continued Freedmen's Hospital in the Class A groun, but through its inspector made favorable mention of its work. Special reference was made to our records, and efficient system of chart filing. The scientific side "measured up" or else our rating would have been lowered. For one to state that inefficiency and incompetence exist on every hand, is but to stigmatize the eminent physicians and surgeons, practically every one of whom is a member of Freedman's Hospital staff, and with few exceptions, every one of whom was developed under Dr. Warfield's administration. The treatment of patients is under the supervision of these men, and their first consideration is the efficient care of them. The surgeon-in-chief strives to place at the command of his scientific staff the best equipment possible. In the medical world as in the lay, certain things which are the "fad," though not the essential today, are cast into the discard tomorrow. It is true that Dr. Warfield guards well his expenditures, supplying "fads" in reason, and never losing sight of the tried and stabilized essentials. The funds, as you know, come from Congress, and though asked for, cannot be used if not granted. When granted they are used to the limit. With the friendly attitude and support of Hon. Hubert C. Work, Freedmen's Hospital is rapidly developing into a training center of the highest type, for the young medical graduates of our group. As an evidence of Dr. Warfield's eagerness to push this idea, the intern staff has been increased from four to twenty-five, and to facilitate the housing of these young men, he relinquished his quarters in the hospital. This institution cared for 4,463 indoor patients and 20,190 outdoor patients during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1927. If we grant that each patient had at least three persons interested in him, it would mean that 73,959 people were brought directly or indirectly in intimate contact with the hospital and its employees. Can it be expected that each and every one could be satisfied beyond the point of complaint? There would at least be expected a few fancied grievances. The administration stands ready, if possible, to correct any injustice which the community may suffer at its hands. The foregoing statements are based upon the knowledge of the man, from fifteen years' contact. It may be true that Dr. Warfield is a man of few words, seldom bubbling over with enthusiasm, but I am convinced that his actions are UB NDAY, 3 P.M.

T. EDWARD JONES, M.D., Resident Assistant Surgeon, Freedmen's Hospital ASSAULT CASE AGAINST CHAS. MORGAN DISMISSED The case of the United States vs. Charles Morgan, which was heard before Judge Robert E. Mattingly, presiding in the United States branch of the D. C. Court, was dismissed at the conclusion of the preliminary hearing, Friday, August 12. Mr. Morgan was charged with an assault with a dangerous weapon, on James Turner, who after being confined in a hospital for eighty-six days suffering from a fractured skull, appeared as the prosecuting witness. It developed on cross examination, that the defendant, Mr. Morgan, had received a call from the Windsor Apartment, and passing Fourteenth and T streets, northwest, nearly struck the prosecuting witness, who negligently stepped from the curb, this resulted in an unwarranted attack by the prosecuting witness and his friends upon the defendant, who in defense of himself struck the blow which was the basis of the charge. Mr. Morgan, was defended by Attorney Thomas Beckett. KISS A new creation, an enchanting powerful aroma.

Bennett, recently connected with the circulation department of the Washington Tribune, now in Durham, N.C. to become affiliated with the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Co., believes that for service, Ford needs no new car. Mr. Bennett possesses a 1916 Ford coupe. He left Washington in it for Durham on August 12, at 5:45 a.m., heading for Richmond as the first stop. At 9:50, that same morning, he reached Richmond, and had not even as much as changed a tire. Richmond, by the way, is 107 miles from here. After laying over in Richmond all day Friday and Friday night, Mr. Bennett resumed his journey in "Ford's Pride" at 6:05 a.m. Saturday morning. The distance from Richmond to Durham is 190 miles, all of which is good road except a stretch of about fifty miles, unpaved and a little rough. He reached Durham at 3 p.m. the same day. His only trouble during that stretch was the necessity to change one tire about fifteen miles out of Durham. So Mr. Bennett is in Durham, and so is the Ford coupe. And since his actual driving time for the distance of 297 miles was only thirteen hours exactly, he wants to know why Mr. Ford should make a new car.

"What Price Health" was the subject of an address by Dr. Carl Roberts, president of the National Medical Association, following the awards Thursday morning. He translated into terms of economic value the price of health and urged the business men to take hold of the problem of providing adequate hospital facilities. Bishop Jones Speaks One of the best addresses made was that of Bishop Robert E. Jones of the Methodist Episcopal Church just before the league adjourned Friday. His subject was "Economic Aspects of the Mississippi Flood." He declared that as disastrous as the flood was, it was a godsend in emancipating Negroes in southern states along the Mississippi river. He praised the rehabilitation work of Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover in treating both whites and blacks fairly. The Negro race cannot go forward, he declared, until the whole level of the race is lifted.

EVANTI SUES HUSBAND FOR SUPPORT (Continued from page 1) abroad to study. Mrs. Tibbs Goes Abroad From 1919 to 1924, Mr. and Mrs. Tibbs lived with her mother, Mrs. Annie D. Evans, at 1910 Vermont avenue, northwest. Their son, Thurlow Evans Tibbs, was born May 11, 1921, and lived with them at his grandmother's home until his mother went abroad. He was left with Mrs. Evans. In her bill of complaint, Mrs. Tibbs says that in 1924 she talked with her husband about the advisability of her going abroad and completing her musical education and the cultivation of her voice. She declares that he not only acquiesced but advised her to go. In the fall of 1924, Mrs. Tibbs went abroad and remained until August 31, 1925. When she returned home, she says, she found Professor Tibbs ill and living in private quarters. She went to him and did all she could to assist him during his illness, she says. Returns to France In November, 1925, she returned to France and remained there until June, 1926. When she returned, she says, she found her husband living in a rented room and without a home in which to receive her. Mrs. Tibbs returned to France in December, 1926. She returned to Washington in July, 1927 and found her husband living at 401 T street, northwest. She was ready to return to the United States in May, Mrs. Tibbs says, but she was without funds. She wrote Professor Tibbs, she states, and asked him to send her a sufficient amount of money to return home. She declares that he did not even answer her letter. Her husband requested her not to come to his home, Mrs. Tibbs says, but on August 5 with their son she went there. When he came in and saw her, she alleges, the only remark he addressed to her was, "What does this mean?" He immediately left with some of his friends, she states. She and their son remained. Tibbs Refuses to Return The next day, Mrs. Tibbs asserts, J. S. Mitchell, and Alma Tibbs, her sister-in-law, came to the T street house and sought to get her husband's clothing. Two days later while she was still at his home, Mrs. Tibbs declares, she wrote her husband a letter urging him to return home but he refused. On August 9 while she was still in his home, Mrs. Tibbs claims, she was obliged to go to a dentist. She had no key to the house. She asked her mother to come and remain with her son until she returned. Mrs. Tibbs alleges that while she was away her husband and a friend went to his home and ordered her mother out and when she returned she had been locked out. She was forced to seek refuge with her mother, she says. At the direction of her husband, Mrs. Tibbs alleges, her clothing was removed from his home and carried to the home of her mother and thrown into the hallway. Mrs. Tibbs states that from 1924 to 1927 she did not receive over $225 from her husband for her support and maintenance. From the time of their marriage to 1924, she says that she contributed all the money she earned for the benefit of her husband and herself. Tibbs Receives $3500 Professor Tibbs receives a salary of $2,500 a year from Howard university, Mrs. Tibbs asserts. He also receives approximately $500 for summer courses and additional pay for night classes, she states. He is employed as a church organist and receives $500 a year, she says. He owns 211 Florida avenue, northwest, and receives a yearly rental of $1,080 from this property, she declares. He also owns 401 T street, she alleges, but title to it is in the name of someone else. Mrs. Tibbs alleges that she is without means and would be without a place to sleep were it not for her mother. She had no idea that her husband did not intend to receive her until she returned, she says, and then she learned that he has sought to make it appear that her ambition for a career is the cause for their separation. She asks the court for separate maintenance and custody of their son. She is represented by Attorney Henry F. Woodard PORTERS WIN IN RECOGNITION FIGHT amount of tips received monthly by the average porter, the total occupational expense of each porter, the number of hours and the total mileage covered by the porter during the 400-hour work month will come before the arbitration. Also the actual cost of living for the porter with and without a family, the actual wage increase granted the porters since their employment by the Pullman Company some fifty-nine years ago will be presented to the Board of Arbitration. A systematic comparison between the work and wages of the porters and the other railroad workers will also be submitted." Mr. Crosswath explained that during mediation the attorneys of the Brotherhood could not legally appear and argue the organization's case. Before the Board of Arbitration, however, the full legal battery of the Brotherhood will be called into action. The chief legal advisor of the Brotherhood is Donald R. Richberg, co-author of the Watson-Parker Act which created the Boards of Mediation and Arbitration. Associated with him are Henry T. Hunt, former member of the old U.S. Railroad Board and ex-mayor of Cincinnati; Frank P. Walsh, Samuel Untermyer, Arthur Garfield Hayes, Amos R. E. Pinchot and C. Francis Stratford, prominent Negro attorney of Chicago. Organizer Randolph left New York on July 11 for Chicago, having been summoned there by Edwin P. Morrow, member of the U. S. Board of Mediation. The actual mediation began on the morning of July 12 and has been in progress until the decision recommending arbitration was reached.

She was going straight to see "Cal." She planned, too, to go to New York to find another of her sons, whose name was Arthur, though she did not know his address. The Travelers' Aid Society discovered her predicament and set its machinery in motion. A wire was sent to the New York Police Department in Harlem to locate her son. Word was received that he had been gone from that vicinity for three years. Yet, the old lady insisted she would go to New York. Fortunately, she had enough money to buy a return ticket to Columbia, S. C., with about seven dollars over. The society informed her of a more logical method of procedure for straightening out her insurance tangle, and bought her a return ticket to Columbia.

Philip Randolph, is bringing to the United States as its guest, Clements Kadalia, national secretary of the Industrial and Commercial Workers Union of Africa, and editor of the Workers' Herald, Johannesburg, South Africa. Mr. Kadalia will arrive the latter part of August. During the months of September, October and November he will tour the United States under the auspices of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. He will lecture on the present status of the natives in South Africa and adjacent colonies. Mr. Kadalia, a native of British Nyasaland, heads an organization of almost 100,000 Negro, colored Travelers' Aid was by her side. A note with the address of a lady in Atlantic City, was found in her possession. A telegram was sent to the address. It was to her aunt. The girl had ended her journey too soon, and in a little while, the aunt was here to claim the lost "tot." On another occasion, a seventy-year-old girl arrived at the station, prepared to jump right onto another train and be whirred away to Richmond. But, she was informed that the next train would not leave until morning. She was alone, she was a stranger. But the Travelers' Aid provided a place for her in the station where she could sleep and be watched over. However, she refused to sleep. She preferred crying. There was no success, however, in quieting her until morning, sufficiently for the "All Aboard" of the conductors to be heard by the other itinerants in the station. Soon, she was safely on he train to Richmond. These, and numerous other cases of every nature, come into the daily routine of the Travelers' Aid Society in that big stone structure that seems so cold and time-pressed on the surface.
