DR. ARTHUR CURTIS AND WIFE SUED FOR $10,000 DAMAGES Kills Half-Clad Backyard Intruder, Released MISS FITZHUGH DECLARES BOTH FIRST in Advertising and Circulation Vol. VII, No. 15 DR. ART Kills H CORONER'S JURY FINDS HOMICIDE UNINTENTIONAL A verdict of unintentional homicide was returned by a coroner's jury at the inquest Monday into the shooting to death of William E. Bower, 40, at the hands of James E. Adams of 233 Elm street northwest. According to the testimony of several witnesses including Mrs. Addie Thompson, and her daughter, Mrs. Jesse Johnson, the two women were asleep in their respective rooms when Mrs. Thompson was awakened by the sound of walking on a pile of roofing tin which lays in the back yard. Her first impression was that it might be a cat, and Mrs. Thompson, according to her story, did not become alarmed. Heard Door Being Pushed Later, however, when she heard the knob of the kitchen door being gently turned Mrs. Thompson avers she became alert. A cracking of the door gave her the impression that a person's weight was being placed against it. Mrs. Thompson became excited. She rushed to the window of her room, which is directly above the door leading from the kitchen into the yard. Looking down on the stoop below, Mrs. Thompson declares she saw the form of a man. In response to her challenge asking the man's identification, she was told to "open the door." Screaming, the woman ran from the room to the front room where her daughter, Mrs. Johnson, was asleep. Awakening Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Thompson told her to call the police while she aroused Adams, the only man in the house. Adams, who, according to his testimony, had just returned from church, had started down the steps upon hearing Mrs. Thompson's screams. When told of the presence of the back yard intruder, Adams said he'd get his revolver. Having done this he went into Mrs. Thompson's room and called to the man in the yard. When no answer other than a continuous banging on the door was forthcoming Adams called a warning, "Unless you leave, I shall shoot," he said. Turning to Mrs. Thompson, the roofer said, "I'll shoot out of the window and frighten him." Resting his hand on the window ledge he fired the revolver, just as Mrs. Johnson opened the front door and admitted several officers from the eighth precinct. Policeman J. J. McCauliffe was the first to reach the yard. With the use of his flashlight he found a man about 40 years of age, weighing about 150 pounds lying near the gate. The man, who was later identified as William Bower of 1326 Harrison avenue, southeast, had on no shoes and socks. He was without hat, coat and shirt. A pair of dark summer-weight trousers and underwear was all that adorned his body. He died as he was being taken to Freedmen's Hospital in the number 8 patrol wagon. Gate Locked Officer McCauliffe testified that the gate admitting entrance to the yard was latched, which indicated that the man had climbed the tenfoot fence. A bit of humor found its way into the inquest proceedings when, Adams on the witness stand in his own defense stated, in reply to a question, by Attorney A. W. Scott who represented him, when asked if he knew he was shooting in the direction of the man, "No, if I had taken time to aim, I guess I'd never have hit him," was his reply. Neighbors Saw a Man A man who wore no hat and answered somewhat to the general description of Bower was seen peering into the window of Mrs. Viola Kent's home at 2022 Second street, northwest. She called Howard Early, a roomer, who frightened the intruder away. This, it seems occurred just prior to the shooting at 233 Elm street which is in the immediate vicinity of the. Second street address. THE CONGRESSIONAL LIBRARY FIRST ST., S. E. Read the advertisements in this paper, they offer many good bargains. PUBLISHED WEEKLY THUR CU Half-Cla NEW MASONI IS ORDERED RECEIVERS THUR CUR Half-Clac NEW MASONIC IS ORDERED D RECEIVERS A NEW MASONIC HALL CORP. IS ORDERED DISSOLVED: RECEIVERS APPOINTED Attorneys Alexander Wolf and William L. Houston were appointed receivers of the New Masonic Hall Corporation by Justice William Hitz last Thursday. The corporation was ordered dissolved. Bond for the receivers was fixed at $75,000. The appointment of receivers and the order for the dissolution of the corporation were based upon a report of the auditor for the District Supreme Court filed on July 5. He reported that the corporation is solvent but has failed in its purpose and no necessity or reason exists for its continuance. The New Masonic Hall Corporation, through its attorney, William L. Houston, petitcined the court for the appointment of receivers and the dissolution of the corporation. The petition was referred to the auditor. Charles P. Ford, Grand Master of the Masons of the District of Columbia, broke with. Attorney Alxander Wolf, who had represented Charles, Datcher Lodge, Dr. Elias G. Evans and Allan A. C. Griffith in the suit against the New Masonic Hall Corporation for an accounting and receivership. Grand Master Ford intervened on behalf of the Masonic grand lodge, asking for representation in the appointment of receivers. Mr. Ford in open court suggested himself as one of the receivers to be appointed. Assets to be Distributed The New Masonic Hall Corporation was organized to construct a Masonic temple at Tenth and U streets, northwest. Dissension arose in the Masonic order and work on the building was suspended in December 1923, and litigation begun. The unfinished structure was sold at public auction in April, 1926, to the Masonic grand lodge. Word has not yet been resumed. The New Masonic Hall Corporation, according to the report of the court auditor has assets amounting to more than $80,000, consisting of the sum of $63,239 cash in the hands of the trustees, Attorneys Wolf and Houston, who were appointed by the court to sell the unfinished structure, and property at Fifth and Virginia avenue, southeast, estimated to be worth about $15,000. The receivers also have claims against lodges and chapters of the Masonic grand lodge for rent of lodge rooms amounting to about $3,500. These assets will be distributed to the stockholders of the corporation. STUDENT COUNCIL WEEK CELEBRATED AT FISK U NASHVILLE, Tennessee.

TO STAND TRIAL James Blevins must return to Alabama and stand trial on a charge of assault with intent to murder, the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia held Monday. Chief Justice McCoy of the District Supreme Court ordered Blevins arrested upon requisition of the governor of Alabama. A hearing was had before Chief Justice McCoy, and Blevins was ordered to be surrendered to the Alabama officers who came for him. A writ of habeas corpus was sued out. It was denied. An appeal was taken to the Court of Appeals. Five errors were assigned. The Court of Appeals held that it was not necessary for the indictment to state when the offense was committed, but that it is sufficient to show that the fugitive has been charged with crime in the state from which he fled. The question of whether an offense is extraditable, the court held, is not open to inquiry in habeas corpus proceedings. Counsel for Blevins had contended that he was not guilty of an extraditable offense. Contention Dismissed The court dismissed the contention that the indictment was a part of a conspiracy to collect a debt. It held that the question of whether the proceedings were instituted by improper motives will not be considered in habeas corpus proceedings. The claim that the indictment is i valid because the grand jury that returned it was composed of white men only must be addressed to the court of the jurisdiction in which the indictment was found, the Court of Appeals held. The court declared that there is nothing in the record to indicate that Blevins will not be accorded his constitutional rights when brought to trial. Counsel for Blevins contended that Chief Justice McCoy should have held that prejudice against colored people in Alabama is so great that Blevins would not be accorded a fair trial if returned to the state. ANN'AL WOMEN'S DINNER HELD AT HOWARD UNIV. Over 350 women students, faculty and alumnae gathered in the dining hall of the university on Friday night, November, for the sixth annual women's dinner. An elaborate musical program of class songs, schools songs and solos had been worked out by Miss Nickerson of the Conserv tory of Music assisted by Miss Reeves of the Physical Education Department. Special features of the program were the singing of Avis Andrews, the senior song, and "taps," sung at the close of the dinner by the whole assemblage. Short addresses were made by Bobbie Turner, President of the Women's League; Anita Turpeau-Anderson of the class of 1925 and by Dean Lucy D. Slowe. Dean Slowe read a number of telegrams and letters from alumnae who regretted that they were too far away to attend. The silver cup, presented by the Howard Women's Club of Washington to the class having the highest percentage of attendance at the dinner, was won for a second consecutive time by the Senior Class. 1914 THIS IS part of the crowd that gathered to see Harlem's favoritesinger and dancer laid to rest last Sunday.

INTERNATIONAL Newareel Photo DROPS SUIT IN RESIDENTIAL WAR NEW YORK, Nov. 10—Samuel Browne, letter carrier and centre of a race controversy in the Castleton Hill residential district of Staten Island discontinued Wednesday a suit he had instituted two years ago asking $100,000 damages from Musco M. Robertson, wealthy real estate operator and next-door neighbor, and eight other white neighbors on the ground that they sought to deprive him of his home. Robertson and five other residents were indicted on a charge of conspiracy to oust Browne from the community in 1926, but the case against Robertson was dropped a year ago on grounds of insufficient evidence. Mrs. Browne, a public school teacher on Staten Island, has charged that a gang of six or seven men invaded the property early morning and destroyed shrubbery and broke windows. Since that time a policeman has constantly been on guard. Discontinuance of the suit, Browne said yesterday, does not mean surrender. He said he is determined to keep his home. --- A.

CLARENDON Va., Nov. 10—Eight hundred Negro voters, the balance of power in Arlington County politics, swung Tuesday's election into the Democratic column. The Negro voters under the leadership of Dr. S. G. Holmes, Thomas M. Watson, Joseph M. Wormley, Noble N. Thomas, Mrs. Mary Harris, William Parker, Benjamin Scott, Mrs. Margaret Morton and Moses Dade, supported the Democratic ticket. The Republicans and independents bitterly opposed Commonwealth's Attorney William C. Gloth and Sheriff Howard B. Fields. The Negro voters supported them, and they were reelected over their opponents. State Senator Frank L. Ball, Democrat, supported by the Negro voters, defeated Melvin J. Ely by a vote of 4,865 to 1,016. Hugh Reid, Democrat, was elected to the house of delegates in a three-cornered race. County Commissioner of Revenue defeated his Republican opponent, C. Eugene Doyle, 4 to 1. E. Wade Ball, county treasurer, was returned to the office which he has held for the past 20 years. The Negro voters resented the intermeddling in Arlington county politics by Crandall Mackey, Washington attorney, and his raising of the Ku Klux Klan issue as a bugaboo to scare Negroes into supporting his candidates. The Republicans ignored the Negroes in the selection of their party candidates, and the Negro voters ignored them at the polls. HARLEM ELECTS TWO NEGROES TO BD. OF ALDERMEN NEW YORK, Nov. 10—Fred R. Moore, editor of The New York Age, and John Clifford Hawkins, both Republicans, defeated Democratic incumbents for the Board of Alderman in the election held Tuesday. Mr. Moore received a plurality of more than 1,200 votes for the aldermanic seat, defeating George Masterson, white, Democrat, in the nineteenth aldermanic district. Mr. Moore was born in Washington, D.C. He is 70 years of age but very vigorous. He is a prominent figure in Harlem and is highly respected. Mr. Hawkins was elected alderman to represent the twenty-first aldermanic district. He defeated Henri W. Shields, present colored Democratic incumbent, who is a former State Assemblyman. His plurality was more than 200. Mr. Hawkins was born in Henderson, N.C., in 1879. He is a graduate of Lincoln University. He studied law at New York University. For the past five years he has served as assistant counsel in the New York offices of the United States Shipping Board. Let our classified column rent that vacant room. Call Potomac 1667. IN WASHINGTON nearly everybody reads the TRIBUNE MISS FITZHUGH DECLARES BOTH ASSAULTED HER Dr. Arthur L. Curtis, prominent physician, 1717 U street, northwest, and his wife, Mrs. Helen Gordon Curtis, society leader, 1834 Vernon street, northwest, were named as the defendants in separate suits filed against them Thursday by Miss Eva Fitzhugh, 1816 S street, northwest, for $10,000 damages each for alleged assaults. In her declarations, Miss Fitzhugh avers that Dr. and Mrs. Arthur Curtis assaulted her on May 8. Each of them, she states, beat, kicked and ill-treated her. As a result, she declares, she sustained injuries in and about the head, face, neck and body. Her face and neck, she says, were lacerated and bruised. Her nervous system was shocked, she asserts; that she has become permanently nervous. She also suffered great humiliation and embarrassment. Besides the alloged assault on May 8, she also charges Dr. Arthur Curtis with having assaulted her again on July 7. Miss Fitzhugh is represented by attorneys Wilton J. Lambert, R. H. Yeatman, Austin F. Canfield and George D. Horning, Jr. Miss Fitzhugh is under a bond or $500 not to breach the peace. On July 15 Judge Robert E. Mattingly in police court on complaint of Dr. Curtis ordered her to post the bond to keep the peace. Dr. Curtis charged her with having threatened to do him bodily harm. Miss Fitzhugh operates a tea room for white people at 1101 Vermont avenue, northwest. MRS. NORMAN SUES ON NOTES DUE HUSBAND Mrs. Ethel M. Norman, executrix of the estate of her husband, Rev. Moses W. D. Norman, through Attorney Zeph Neph Moore, filled two suits in the Municipal Court last week on notes which are a part of her late husband's estate. One suit is against R. P. Chandler, a deacon of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, which the Rev. Norman pastored until his death. She is suing him on a note of $300 which was payable to the Rev. Norman ninety days after date. It was dated July 30, 1925. The other suit is against John W. Lewis, 63 Fifty-third street, southeast. It is on a note for $277.40, which she declares is past due and unpaid. CARDINAL GIBBONS CLUB CONDEMNS STATEMENT OF REV. FATHER DAGEY Reverend Father Cornelius J. Dacey, pastor of St. Paul's Catholic Church, Fifteenth and V streets, northwest, was condemned by members of the Cardinal Gibbons Charity Club at a meeting last Tuesday evening for his declaration in the pulpit of his church on October 16 that members of St. Augustine and Holy Redeemer parishes should attend their churches and not visit St. Paul's. Some members of the charity club took the position that the statement of Father Dacey was an indication of his desire to make St. Paul's Church strictly white. Such race discrimination, they declared is contrary to Catholic practices Their resentment of his decaloration, which they regard as insulting, will be conveyed to Father Dacey. The meeting was held at the residence of Mrs. Carrie Brown 1231 Ninth street, northwest. Father Dacey later in explaining his pulpit statement said that he had no reference to any particular race or color, but that he though Catholics should attend and support the particular church to which they belong.

Footlights By McAlpin The Howard Theatre this week is presenting "Black Pepper," a red-hot show with plenty of seasoning. The show, coming the week following the week played by the Whitman Sisters is a little handicapped. The Whitman Sisters show is an exceptionally good one, whereas "Black Pepper" is not so exceptional. Consequently, it may suffer from the direct and close comparison. Nevertheless, the show is good, and is entertaining, which counts most with the theatre-going public. The cast is headed by Cecil Rivers and Flo Brown. The chorus, a bevy of ten red-hot peppers, is good. The girls can dance, and they even sing—which is a little different. You can actually hear their voices and tell what words they are saying—I mean singing. On the whole, the show is worth seeing. "Sunshine" Sammy, the inimitable little star of the stage and screen, who won his fame as a member of the "Our Gang" comedies, is playing the Lincoln Theatre this week. It is really a treat to see "Sunshine" cut his capers and dance. He is a marvel. His growing older and larger is causing him to lose nore of his popularity and marvel-inducing qualities. In fact, he is increasing in both. He is just brimming over with ability and personality. Someday, in the near future, without a ard Management man, Asst. Mgr. Black & White Circle Club, Inc.

Dr. Locke has just recently returned from Europe. He spent most of the summer as an unofficial observer of the work of the League of Nations at Geneva. He is particularly interested in the mandate system of colonial administration. He made the following statement: "My report, which will take some considerable time for preparation, will be submitted first to the Foreign Association of New York, under whose auspices I was sent to Geneva. However, I am free to say some things of general interest right off and without reservations. "In the first place I am so impressed with the opportunities for study and contact at Geneva that I am planning to return next summer, and I hope some of our enterprising young men and women will join the enthusiastic forward looking students of other peoples and nationalities who crowd Geneva every summer. They will see a new world in the making, and will be made welcome, because Geneva is the mecca of the liberal and progressive elements of all nations.

But if we expect to be the beneficiaries of this new democracy, we must ourselves participate in its birth struggles and help it into being. Our selfish isolation in our own group problems is inconsistent with what we expect from America and the world at large. To have a place in the sun we must come out of the shadow of the race problem and toil for the common good. League of Nations "Among the progressive movements of today none is more important than the work of the League of Nations. Its basic principles of the equality of nations, of the self-determination of peoples, and the moral responsibility of governments before the court of world opinion, are the only basis upon which we can hope for a world free of the oppressions and exploitation of the old order of things—the only program that may successfully avoid race war on a scale bigger even than the war we called 'the world war.' Though we have no political interests involved, the whole moral issue of race question is at stake in such a program, and we are morally bound as Negroes particularly to helpfully participate. "It was, moreover, a great satisfaction to see at Geneva Abyssinia, Liberia and Hayti actively working in the family of nations; to hear for example that the former Haytian representative, M. Bellegarde, had left behind him the reputation of being one of the real statesmen and benefactors of the League."

"You ask me what I think of our recent debate in the Forum? That is not for me to say. The public is the referee. I have a short rebuttal reply in the next issue. "I would have been keenly disappointed if Mr. Stoddard had argued any differently. His very confusion of the questions of intermarrriage and amalgamation with the real question at issue—cultural opportunities and recognition—is an admission of the dilemma in which the creed of White Supremacy has involved itself. To shield itself from its own self contradiction, it has to pretend to be the aggrieved party, menaced by a black peril "All that is a nightmare of moral indigestion. Fortunately there is growing up, even in the South, a generation with no such bad conscience and no such hysterical fears. They may be expected to appreciate the fact that social relations are matters of individual choice and personal prerogative, and that what the Negro asks and needs is civic equality and full cultural opportunities. And they may be expected to see that in granting this, democracy has more to gain than the Negro."

A Suggestion "Intelligent participation in African affairs, constructive help in African reconstruction, will eventually be the Negro-American's world duty. Our schools and colleges should already be paying special attention to these problems and questions, preparing the younger generation for intelligent, skilled participation along these lines. "The next few years must see a program formulated and undertaken which will reemerge the limitations and fanaticism of Garveyism and which will make a small scale development like the Pan-African Congress seem but a fore-runner of a great crusade." "It is significant that this very summer, the Pan-African Congress, which owes its being to one of our outstanding liberals, should have come at last to America. It seems to me that, nothing is more reprehensible in our race life today than the comparative lack of knowledge and interest about Africa. W E. L. Sanford, Mgr.

Let us determine whether our religion is a reasonable thing and whether we can be just as certain and satisfied about it as we are about the material facts of our business relationships. One way to do this would be to cease our present occupations and give ourselves over to years of study of the origin of religion, of comparisons between the principal religions of the world, of the beginnings of Christianity, and the interpretation of religious concepts. The other way is to join in the prayerful discussion of vital religious problems with a man who has already done these things. THE TWELFTH STREET BRANCH Y. M. C. A. is offering to the men of Washington—business men, professional men, school men, government men, church men, laboring men, all men—the opportunity to determine for themselves WHAT A MAN CAN BELIEVE. WILLIAM STUART NELSON, assistant professor of philosophy and religious education at Howard University, is heading a discussion series on the problems of religion at the Y.M.C.A. each Wednesday at 8 p.m. Prof. Nelson has international experience as a student of religion and will present an appeal to men of strong convictions as well as to men who are in a period of questioning as to their beliefs. The discussion will cover a period of 12 weeks and be undenominational in character. There is no fee connected with this course. The first discussion period was held WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 2 at 8 p.m. in the Y.M.C.A. building. Discussions will continue each Wednesday evening through January 25.

Scripture Basis: Hosea, chapters 6, 11 and 14. Golden Text: "I desire goodness, ard not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings." Hosea 6:6. The Thought of the Lesson The personality and the prophetic tenor of Hosea are the reverse of those of Amos, whom we studied last Sunday. Amos was stern in personality and severe in his prohetic proclamations. Hosea, on the other hand, was of a pleading personality, and his prophetic warnings were tempered with notes of love and mercy. He declared God's displeasure with sin as definitely as did Amos, but his declarations were contained in words of love rather than those of anger. He is the prophet of salvation bearing a message of personal appeal to the backslipped to return to a waiting and leaving God, "Hosea, among the Old Testament prophets, like John among the New Testament apostles, makes the love of God the center of his teachings." Our present Sunday school lesson is a verification and an example of this fact. LINCOLN CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH At Lincoln Congregational Temple, Sunday morning, Rev. R. W. Brooks will speak from the subject, "The Problems of Christianity." There will be rendered special music by the choir. The Progressive Bible Class meets at 10 a.m. The Holy Communion will be observed at the morning service. The Senior Christian Endeavor Society will present its program at 6:45 p.m. The subject to be discussed is, "The good and the bad in the newspapers and magazines."

Green What is now known as the First Baptist Church, of Warrenton, Va., was among the first churches to be established in the northern part of the state. Its founding dates back to 1866 or 1867. Land on which to build the church was given by the Freedmen's Board of Fauquier County. An old barrack, located at Gordonsville, Va., was also given by the Board for the erection of a church building. The church thus obtained and erected was known as Old Zion Baptist Church, and the building served as school house and lodge room as well as church. Rev. Leiland served as first pastor of this church. Under his pastorate the property of the Episcopal Church (white) on the Alexandria Pike was purchased, and the name of the church changed from Old Zion to First Baptist Church. Shortly after this purchase and change of name Rev. Warren resigned the pastorate and was succeeded by a Rev. Dennis, who also resigned in a short while, being succeeded by Rev. George W. Horner. During Rev. Horner's pastorate the Northern Virginia Baptist Association was organized in the First Church (1878). After a short pastorate Rev. Horner withdrew under unfortunate circumstances and organized the Mt. Zion Baptist Church. He was succeeded at First Church by Rev. James T. Hines in 1883. After two years Rev. Hines resigned and was succeeded by Rev. R. L. Ruffin (whose son is now a deacon of the church). The church reached the peak of success under Rev. Ruffin. Its membership grew from 160 to 660; 260 converts were counted in a single revival, 99 of whom were baptized at one time (1887). Also the fine brick building now housing the church was built under Rev. Ruffin's pastorate (1889-1890). Shortly after the completion of this building Rev. Ruffin resigned and was succeeded by Rev. J. I. Loving, who also resigned after one year. Rev. Loving was succeeded by Rev. D. W. Jones, who served for three years. Upon Rev. Jones' resignation, Rev. N. A. Marshall was called to the pastorate of the church. Rev. Marshall also resigned after a pastorate of three years. He was succeeded by Rev. J. D. Ward, a singer and musician as well as a splendid preacher. His resignation after a brief pastorate caused much regret on the part of the church and of the community. Rev. Ward was succeeded by Rev. I. M. Champ, who served for four years and under whose pastorate the church was cleared of all debts. Upon Rev. Champ's resignation Rev. Anthony Deans was called to the pastorate of the church. Rev. Deans served the church for fourteen years and was succeeded by Rev. J. R. C. Pinn, another musician and preacher. Rev. Pinn served the church for about two years and resigned in May of the present year. On July 21, last, the present pastor, Rev. Charles P. Harris, was unanimously called to the pastorate of the church. He accepted the call and was formally installed with impressive services on the third Sunday in October, last. Thus the First Baptist Church of Warrenton, Va., has stood as a spiritual light-house in northern Virginia for more than sixty years. Twelve pastors have proclaimed the gospel from her historic pulpit, and the thirteenth is now dedicated to that task. "THE SPURGEON OF THE THE WEST" TO BE WITH SHILOH NEXT WEEK Rev. David E. Over, D.D., pastor of Union Baptist Church of Baltimore, Md., and popularly known as "The Spurgeon of the West," will preach at Shiloh Baptist Institutional Church, corner of Ninth and P streets, northwest, Sunday night, November 13 and every night thereafter until, and including Friday, the 18th. The choirs of the church, under the direction of Professor T. H. Ward, will have charge of the music at night. A mid-day service from 12 to 1:30 o'clock will be held in the lecture room, every day next week. Mrs. Sallie Barksdale is in charge of this service. Mrs. M. M. Waldron, assisted by the ladies and the various clubs of the church, will give a Christmas bazaar and doll baby contest in the lecture room of the church for ten days, beginning December 6. Rev. Waldron will preach Sunday morning, November 18, from the Acts of the Apostles, using as his subject, "The Sin of Lying." All of the services will be open to the public, and all, especially strangers, will be welcomed. William Knowles Cooper "EUROPE--1927" M. Rev. GEORGE O. BULLOCK, pastor of Third Baptist Church, Fifth and Q streets, northwest. By Rev. George O. Bullock "But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the enunchs that he might not defile himself."—Dan. 1:8. But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the King's meat nor with the wine which he drank. Daniel, was one of the young men who was carried captive down in Babylon by King Nebuchadnezwar. This young man, though a captive was given the privilege of attending school in Babylon, not only did he have the opportunity of attending school, but was given the advantage of being fed from the king's table. Daniel had purposed not to defile himself with the King's meat nor with the wine which he drank. This was a noble purpose. You will note that Daniel at this time was a young man. Youth is the time in a life to have a noble purpose. You may think it all right to live a corrupt life while young, then consecrate your life to Christ in old age, but remember, the best of your life is wasted if you wait to get old before you propose to live a clean life. The only way to make life count is to have a purpose. A man without a purpose is like a ship without a rudder drifting on the wide sea. Decide early to make your life count, wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way by taking heed thereto according to the word. Let your purpose in life be high, then press toward the goal of your ambition. It is a great thing when a young man will purpose to do the right when it means to stand alone. So many people will say it is all any harm to take a drink of wine, and play a game of cards. One game or one drink may lead to a life of debauchery and sin. Daniel was determined to present to God a clean body and a strong mind. God can use such a life in a wonderful way. The blessings of the Lord rested on Daniel, on the day of his examination he stood far ahead of any of his fellows. "Every good and perfect gift cometh down from the FREE! 5 Wonderf FREE!

It is fortunate to be blessed with a superior mind, such was the blessing of Daniel and his three friends. The Lord is always willing to use a man with a purpose. Daniel stands out in the old Testament as a great prophet, a great teacher, all because he gave his life to the Lord while a young man, with a purpose true. I would to God that more of our young men and women would decide early in life to present to the Lord a clean life, a pure soul, which means a fixed purpose. This is what God wants, that he may work through you. It is God that worketh in you both to will and to do. Co-operate with the Lord, take him as your partner. You can do a big business for right and righteousness that will attract the world. The great need of the world today is men and women with a fixed purpose that will not be moved though the earth tremble or the heavens fall. The thing that makes one man succeed far above another is his purpose. Let your aims be high in right and righteousness and drive to the goal of your ambition. God will bless your efforts, you have only to put your trust in Him and press forward. Paul, the great apostle, said this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are before. I press forward to the mark of the high calling of God, which is in Christ, Jesus, our Lord. If you propose to do a work for the Lord, you will find enough for your time and talent. I am determined not to know anything among you save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. It was the undaunted purpose of Lindberg that urged him on in a non-stop flight across the Atlantic to brave the winds, and rain, and landed him in Paris. He had a noble purpose. We admire the noble purpose of Christopher Columbus that caused him to sail on across the Atlantic in 1492 when some of his faint hearted crew were so eager to turn back that they threatened his life. But Columbus sailed on; thus we have America today—the land of the free and the home of the brave. The lofty purpose of Abraham Lincoln to save the Union and emancipate the slaves, this purpose was honored and blest by Jehovah. God is always back of a noble purpose, and will see it to that he who promotes it shall not fail. Let us propose in our hearts to fear and serve the Lord. Stand for right, for we know that righteousness exalteth a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people. The record shows that individuals, or nations, who have purposed to follow sin and have rejected God have failed. Herrod, failed, Pilate failed, Judas went to destruction and death because of sin. Thousands of others have gone to destruction and death because they purposed to sin. The Kingdom of Israel failed because of sin, the Kingdom of Judah went to destruction for the same reason. Greece was destroyed because of sin; Rome totered and fell for the self-same reason. Many other kingdoms and nations have come to naught because they failed to FREE! rful Lectures —By— Prof. Wm.

Dr. Brooks came to Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, November 12, 1822. Prior to that time, he was pastor of Second African Baptist Church, Richmond, Va., from April, 1877, to October, 1880. Immediately preceding his coming to Washington, he was engaged for about two years, in Sunday school missionary work in Louisiana, under the auspices of the American Baptist Publication Society. The members of the church saw fit last July, to relieve Dr. Brooks, as he approached his seventy-sixth birthday, of many details in his pastoral work, so as to preserve his waning strength by giving him two assistants, Rev. Henry J. Booker and Rev. George A. Parker. To Deliver Sermon Dr. Brooks will deliver the anniversary sermon, Sunday at the 11 o'clock service. He has selected for his subject, "Looking backward and looking forward." Special music will be rendered by the choir.

No life is complete without some sorrow, whether the most righteous Christian or the worse sinner. Sorrow is a part of this life. Tears must be shed, hearts must ache, and loved ones must die. A Christian, however, has the blessed assurance, the blessed hope, that joy comes after all the pains and heartaches cease. The sermon touched every one. Rev. Jernagin, of the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church was present at communion. The collection for the day was six hundred twenty-one dollars and ninety-two cents.

Bronze Casket Miss Mills laid under glass in a heavy castet of hand-hammed bronze—a $10,000 duplicate of the one in which Rudolph Valentino was buried. She wore a short dress of silver metal cloth, silver-mesh stockings and high-heeled silver shoes. Around her neck was a string of matched pearls and her hands clasped an ivory rosary. More than $100,000 worth of flowers were sent. As they were moved from the funeral chapel they made twelve automobiles into great mounds of color. There was a great "Bleeding Heart" from the husband of Miss Mills, U. S. Thompson, who had given his blood in a transfusion to save her life after an operation for appendicitis on October 25. An immense piece in the form of "Gates Ajar," was the tribute of Harry Wills. There were flowers from Lady Cook, her London benefactress; from John Payne, an English actor; from Charles B. Cochran, the English producer, who made her the talk of London; from managers and producers, from Broadway and vaudeville stars, and from more obscure personal friends. There was a tower of red roses, four feet broad and eight feet tall, labeled merely "From a Friend." All Harlem it was sent by the Prince of Wales, who is reported to have gone to see her perform thirteen times. The Funeral Procession The Funeral Procession The cortege moved down Seventh avenue to 125th street. Behind the mourners' cars and flower-floats, thirty flower-girls marched in double file. Each carried a large bouquet. They were dressed in two-piece gray crepe-de-chine costumes, with gray silk stockings and black pumps. They were girls who had worked with Miss Mills in "Shuffle Along," or in "Dixie to Broadway" and "Blackbirds of 1926." The palbearers were William H. Vodery, J. Flournoy Miller, Aubrey Lyles, Dewey Wineglass, Hamtree Harrington, George Rickson, James Marshall and Leonard Harper. The honorary palbearers were her closest women friends, Ethel Waters, Cora Green, Edith Wilson, Gertrude Saunders, Maude Russell, Ade Ward, Lena Wilson and Lottie Gee. They were dressed like the flower-girls except that they wore close-fitting gray hats. The procession moved through 125th street to Lenox avenue. It turned north. The crowd in 137th street was so vast, the procession was forced to go to 135th street. A quick movement back to Seventh avenue, north and around the corner brought the procession to the church. It was an hour late in reaching the church. A Blanket of Roses At 2 o'clock the main entrance of the Mother Zion Church were swung open, and the casket was carried in. A blanket of roses had been provided. Surmounting the roses was a sheaf of lilies of the valley. The casket was placed in front of the altar and banked with flowers by the flower girls, all of whom were weeping. Miss Mills' mother, Mrs. Nellie Winfrey; her sisters, Maude Mills, and Mrs. Olivia Wiltshire; her husband, Mr. Thompson, and a score of cousins took their seats. When the last notes of Chopin's Funeral March died away, there was a hymn, "Come, Ye Disconso- late." Rev. James W. Brown, the pastor, prayed, as the organ softly played "What a Friend We have in Jesus." Rev. Brown read a short history of the comedienne from her birth in the slums of Washington, D. C., on January 25, 1895, through the beginning of her stage career to stardom on Broadway and in London and Paris. der, a ready speaker and persuasive, who got himself in bad by opposing the tendency to extravagance and high handed methods which the white carpet-baggers adopted as a policy for their selfish purposes and which helped to bring about the overthrow of the Reconstruction government of the State.

Rev. Brown turned to eulogy. "The race has sustained a great loss, the theatrical profession has lost its brightest star," he said. He spoke of the sunshine Florence Mills had brought to thousands, of her dignity and poise, and helpfulness in the days of her success. He suggested a memorial to her "to perpetuate her life and work" in the promotion of better race relations. Jesse Shipple, head of the Colored Benevolent Association, read a few of the hundreds of cable-grams and telegrams received by her mother. "Since Booker T. Washington there has been no loss so great," cabled Nobile Sisley from England. "The world has lost a great artist," wired Edgar Selwyn. So went through the list: Mayor James J. Walker, ex-Mayor Hylan, Lady Cook, B. S. Moss, Paul Whiteman, Al Woods, David贝拉斯co, J. Weldon Johnson, Belle Baker, Viscount deFrise, and John F. Isle. Musical Selections Louis Howard sang "Face to Face," A. A. Haston, "Flee as a Bird"; Julius Bledsoe, "Lead Kindly Light"; Jessie Zackery, "Come Unto Me"; Clarence Tisdale, "Keep Her in Perfect Peace"; Louette Chapman, "I know that My Redeemer Liveth." and the Carolina Choir, "I a Pilgrim of Sorrow." Mme. Florence Cole-Talbert sang a solo. Allie Ross' orchestra played. Only one number made the musical services personal. It was announced that Juanita Stinnette of the team of Stinnette and Chapelle would give an original song, "Florence," dedicated to the dead star. Singer Faints Facing toward the casket, Mrs. Stinnette began in a voice hardly audible. "Florence!" each short stanza began. Each time she raised her voice a little higher and threw more of feeling into the appeal until it became a frantic cry, "Florence!" The singer swayed but struggled on to the climax. "The hours you spent for us—Florence!" She threw back her arms, screamed and collapsed. The final prayers were said. The body was borne out, and the procession started on its way to Woodlawn Cemetery. Eventually, her friends plan, the body of Florence Mills will lie in a $25,000 mausoleum, before which will stand a life-sized statue of her as "the Blackbird." STORER COLLEGE IS DAMAGED BY FIRE HARPERS FERRY, W. Va.,— Fire of unknown origin destroyed the entire upper story of the Anthony Memorial Hall, the main recitation building of Storer College, last week. The Library, containing about seven thousand volumes, the Chapel, and a great deal of labortory apparatus were a total loss. The damage is estimated at about $50,000, of which one-third is carried in insurance. Henry T. McDonald, president of Storer, has announced that an appeal will be made for aid in restoring the facilities thus destroyed. AFTER WARTIMES By T. Thomas Fortune A Boy's Life in Reconstruction DEATH OF THE MOTHER Timothy developed very rapidly in the new atmosphere. Mingling with young people older and more advanced in the rudiments of education than he, rubbing elbows with legislators, and spending much of his spare time in the office of the Sentinel (whose owner, Mr. Walton, a northern man, was the State Printer and had taken a fancy to Timothy), "sticking type," attending Sunday school, thus finding plenty of social life among the young people. Many of the girls were very pretty and quite superior in many ways. Timothy expanded rapidly and began to use his eyes and understanding for what they were given him, to weigh men and measures at their proper value. On the whole, the Afro-American members of the legislature were a capable lot, averaging in intelligence their native white and carpet big associates. Little Pons, of Es Cambla county, was the freak member of the Sunday school, being little larger than Tom Thumb; Harry S. Harmon, of Alachua county, was the dandy, the lady's man, very intelligent and alert and a very ready speaker; General Josiah T. Walls, a former Union soldier, was Adjutant-General of militia and every inch a soldier, and carried his sword as a soldier to buttress the dignity of his position, which was greatly enlarged when he became Congressman a few years later. Timothy served him as private secretary after he reached Washington, in 1783. Emanuel Fortune, of Jackson country, was the scholar on der, a ready speaker and persuasive, who got himself in bad by opposing the tendency to extravagance and high handed methods which the white carpet-baggers adopted as a policy for their selfish, purposes and which helped to bring about the overthrow of the Reconstruction government of the State. The Republicans gave Florida a splendid constitution, under which it is still working without amendment, and a public school system, the foundations of which were laid by Dr. Jonathan C. Gibbs, concerning whom I have already spoken, which was sufficient for the needs of the people; but it also went in for extravagant expenditures of public moneys, necessitating a very high rate of taxation, and for voting away rich franchises without adequately safeguarding of the public interests, railway rights of the way being among them. The session was drawing to a close. Timothy took a week-end off to see his mother at Jacksonville, as she was sick unto death from work and worry, which the brief years of freedom appeared to multiply for her, who was born to years of slavery and insult and enforced labor, which eat up frail, sensitive creatures as the canker and the worm devour the things they hitch themselves upon. And she was high strung and sensitive, small of stature and beautiful of figure and features, unfitted in every way for the hard life which became her portions as the mother of five children at the age of thirty-six years. The whereof of it must remain a mystery, a thing of horror to abhor and anathematize, as embodied in the slave system and the brutalities of the Ku Klux Klan, of which she was a victim. Timothy spent three days with his sick mother in Jacksonville and returned to the capital, hopeful that she was improving in health. How easy is it to see the way you hope! But the Monday morning session of the legislature had hardly got going before Timothy get a telegram saying that his mother was dead. The light appeared to go out of his young life, and everything became magnified that his eyes rested upon. He hastened to catch the afternoon train. He was such a favorite that, among others, the railroad officials would give him all the transportation for which he asked, insofar that up to the time he left for Washington, Timothy never had to pay a cent for transportation in Florida. Timothy walked through the sandy city, with plank walks only here and there, as one in a daze. Everything seemed magnified and strange. The boy died with the mother, and looking back over the long past, I much doubt if Timothy ever recovered a normal life. His wonderful precocity and adaptability to every situation seemed uncanny to others as a dream to him, who was led as it were from an ignorant boy without scholastic training, out of a slave condition, to hold many high positions in the Federal service and to become editor of a powerful newspaper and the organizer of great race civil organizations before he was twenty-five years of age. But such was his strange destiny. Timothy reached the humble home where his young mother lay dead, but the light had gone out of him and he remembered nothing from the time he entered the house until he found himself back in Tallahassee a few days after. She loved him as he loved her with an earthly feeling which we strive in vain to analyze and understand. A few days before she was alive and taking Timothy by the hand had said that if anything happened to her he should always look after and care for the young children. Now she was dead and gone away in the shadows, where she could not be seen or heard any more by him who loved her as he loved himself. The four young children, all younger than Timothy, could not realize what the Lord had done for them in taking the mother and leaving them more than bereft, desolate and helpless in the cold hands of the heartless world. The legislative session closed and Timothy went to Jacksonville, but he was not the same Timothy who had left Marianna two years before. Tragedy had come into his life and blasted his childhood, leaving him a child in years to face the trials and tribulations of a man—a radical change which he came but slowly to realize and to grasp as best he could. Life is a desperate game which the wisest man fights with the cards stacked against him without his knowing it. He is only and simply a medium.

CONVENTION FOR AMITY INTER-RACIAL RELA- TIONS TO BE HELD A convention for amity in inter-racial relations, arranged by the Inter-racial Committee of the Baha'is of this city, was held at the Mt. Pleasant Congregational Church, 1410 Columbia road, northwest, Thursday, November 10, and will be continued at the Auditorium of the Playhouse, 1814 N st., northwest, tonight (Friday). The organization has a mixed membership of white and colored people, among whom there is an absolute feeling of equality. The group takes its name from the philosopher Abdul Raha, some of whose philosophical sayings read "The Gift of God to this enlightened age is the knowledge of the oneness of mankind," and "God created one earth and one mankind to people it." On the Thursday night program, the participants included Claude Robeson, Mrs. Coralie Franklin Cook, former member of the Board of Education; Rabbi W. F. Rosenblum, Dr. C. Summer Wormley, Dr. Albert R. Vail of Chicago, and Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president of Howard University. On Friday night, the program will include Dr. Albert R. Vail, Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins Brown, of Palmer Memorial Institute, Sedalia, N.

NEGRO KIDNAPPED BY GEORGIA SHERIFFS TERRE HAUTE, Ind.—Samuel Kennedy, a Negro resident of Indiana, apparently by complicity of the local police department, was rushed by automobile in the charge of Georgia deputy sheriffs, to a dismal prison cell in the South. According to a letter smuggled out of the Henderson, Kentucky, jail, he was beaten unmercifully, suffering from bruises, the result of clubbing. Eye witnesses claim to have seen the Georgia officers clubbing the prisoner unmercifully as they drove along the highway.

Lautier Through Attorneys James E. White and S. A. T. Wattkins, colored Shriners last Saturday filed in the Supreme Court of the United States a supplemental brief in support of their appeal to set aside the decision of the Texas courts enjoining them from using the name, emblems and insignia of the Order of Mystic Shrine. In it they asserted that the white Shriners were guilty of laches. The colored Shrine organization has existed for 25 years and, it is a gued, the white organization through its long delay in asserting any adverse right has lost any right it might have had to object. The statute of limitations of Teas, which provides that every action other than for the recovery of real estate must be brought within four years, is a complete ba to the action of the white Shriners and the rights of the colored Shriners are vested and protected by the Fourteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution, it is claimed in the brief. The argument is also made that it is a settled rule of law that long delay and acquiescence established rights which the courts would protect. In 1894, it is stated, the white Shriners received official notice of the existence and activities of the colored Shriners. The decision of the Texas courts, it is contended, is contrary to a long line of decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States. State courts are bound by the Constitution, it is declared, to give full faith and credit to the decisions of the Supreme Court. Case Cited In the case of Creswill against the Gran. Lodge of the Knights of Pythias, it is pointed out, the Supreme Court held that the white Knights of Pythias were guilty of such long delay and acquiescence as defeated their action when it was shown that the colored order was permitted to exist for a number of years without objection on the part of white Knights of Pythias. It is also claimed that the decision of the Texas courts denied to colored Shriners a substantial right granted by an act of Congress, of April 9, 1866, which provided that all citizens of the United States shall have the same right in every state as is enjoyed by white citizens.

Both white and colored Shriners trace their origin from the same source. Instituted A.D. 656 The Order of Mystic Shrine was instituted by the Mohammedan Kalif Alee, son-in-law of the Prophet Mohammed, at Mecca, Arabia, A.D. 656. William J. Florence, who was initiated into the order in some foreign country, brought it to America. He intruded it to Dr. Walter M. Flemming, who, in turn, introduced it among the white Masons of this country about 1872. They formed a grand body in 1876. The ritual now in use is a translation from the original Arabic found preserved in the archives of the order at Aleppo, Syria. The emblems are the crescent, pyramid, sphink head, panther-bodied female sphink, urn, sun, moon and stars, and have been in use for centuries by the Oriental peoples and Egyptians. The red Turkish fec is the head covering and is worn by the Turks and many other Oriental people. Thirteen colored Masons, who were Knights Templar and thirty-second degree Scottish Rite Masons, were initiated into the Order of Mystic Shrine in Chicago, Ill., June 1, 1893, by Rofeld Pasha of Arabia, S. Hussein of Syria, Amel Kader of Palestine and A. B. Belot of the North Coast of Africa. First Organized in Chicago These men organized Palestine Temple at Chicago on June 2, 1893. Its name was later changed to Arabic Temple. On June 10, 1893, they organized a Grand Imperial Council. It was incorporated under the laws of the State of Illinois on July 5, 1893, and the constitution and laws for the government of the order were entered in the Congressional Library by John G. Jones. In 1893, other temples of colored Shriners were organized in the cities of St. Louis, Kansas City, Louisville, Cleveland, New York City, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Alexandria and Richmond, Va., Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C. In July 1894, the Imperial Potentate of the white Shriners reported to his organization the existence of the colored order. John G.

On December 12, 1900, representatives of the different temples of the colored Shrine met in Philadelphia, recognized the order and changed its name to Ancient Egyptian Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine of North and South America and its jurisdiction. The order was incorporated in the District of Columbia on November 18, 1901. Oro Temple at El Paso, Texas, was charted January 12, 1902. Other temples in Texas were charted, El Maida at El Paso on May 8, 1907; Doric Temple at Houston on August 7, 1917, and Arabic Temple at Houston on July 14, 1915. The Prerequisites The prerequisites for membership in both the white and colored Shriners are that the applicant must be a Mason and a Knight Templar or thirty-second degree Scottish Rite Mason. Both orders draw their memberships from the respective grand lodges of Masons. There is no affiliation between the white and colored Masons, although both came from the same source. The first Masonic grand lodge was organized in England in 1717. It instituted lodges in America. Prince Hall and his fourteen associates at Boston, Mass., on March 6, 1775, were the first colored persons initiated in the Order of Free Masonry in America. They formed a lodge which was chartered by the Masonic Grand Lodge of England on September 29, 1784 under the name of African Lodge No. 459. Later a lodge of colored Masons was instituted at Philadelphia and another lodge at Providence, Rhode Island. These three colored lodges in 1808 organized the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Massachusetts. From this beginning grand lodges of colored Masons were organized in nearly every state of the United States and Canada. The grand lodge of colored Masons was organized in Texas in 1885. The Order of Knights Templar was started among the colored Masons in 1820, and that of Scottish Rite in 1850. They are being practiced by colored Masons in nearly every state of the United States and Canada. They have been practiced longer by white Masons. 11.000 Shriners There are more than 300,000 colored Masons in the United States and about 50,000 Knights Templar and Scottish Rite Masons. Of these there are 11,000 colored Shriners. Both white and colored Masonic orders have charity and relief for their object, and so do both Shrine organizations. Funds are derived from initiation fees, dues and assessments. The colored Shriners have accumulated for their purposes over $900,000 in property. They have spent $700,000 in the operation of the order. The colored Shrine meets annually. Its conventions are welcomed by public officials.

Come In and Get Acquainted MODERN TREND OF EDUCATION IS STABILIZING By "Bip" Brooks The modern trend of education points to a far greater diversification of occupations for members of our groups than was possible under the old scheme of affairs. This new trend of education has ferred with the white officers on affairs of the orders. The suit for an injunction was filed on December 14, 1918, by the officers of Arabia Temple, white, against the officers of Doric Temple, colored, at El Paso, Texas. Later both the colored and the white national organizations intervened. On February 22, 1924, an injunction against the colored Shriners was granted. Its prohibition ran against all subordinate temples and the entire membership of the colored Shrine throughout North America. An appeal was taken to the Court of Civil Appeals of Texas. That court affirmed the judgment and decree of the trial court. An appeal was then made to the Supreme Court of Texas. That court affirmed the decree of both the trial court and the Court of Civil Appeals. The colored Shriners then appealed to the Supreme Court of the United States for a writ of certiorari. The white Shriners have not yet filed their brief in opposition to the petition of the colored Shriners. not been entirely accepted as final; but to the minds of oar most progressive educators, it is considered the best education for the youth of today. But, you may ask, what is new about education of today. To this question is two answers. One is that modern education prepares the youth in general, to face a new and intricate civilization. The other is that it creates new concepts and ideals in the minds of the young Negro, that will tend to make him a producer as well as a consumer. Putting this last statement in a different way, we would say that modern education tends toward economic stability for the race. What Do We Supply? And how does modern education do all this? Before answering this question, it might be well to regard our economic status of the present day. Have we any great industry which we monopolize? Is there anything that we can supply the world, to make it move along? The Greeks monopolize the fruit trade, the Japanese and Swedes the match industry, Chinese the tea; all these peoples are peculiarly adapted for the production of some great staple product. In many cases people can boast of two or more great industries; or even a great diversification of industries, as is the case in our own country. But where does the race man fall in this industrial scheme? He falls out. We produce only a part of the hair preparations, which are used nearly exclusively by our own people. Our efforts along other lines in the field of industry are negligible. There are isolated cases of textile mills, enamel plants, and the like, but on the whole, our efforts in the industrial world are weak and poorly directed. don's h St., N.W. $198 to $495 EME COURTESY AT 710 SEVENTH STREET, N.

We must recognize the fact that we lack business leadership. We grant that we have had spirited leadership and intellectual leadership; but we must realize that we have not had efficient business leadership. Still, whom can we blame; since leaders are only those among the masses, who step just a short distance ahead? The crux of this matter is not so much in placing the blame for our sad economic plight, as it is in seeing the difficulties and ascertaining the remedies. Now let us see what we accomplished under the old scheme of education. When opportunity came, the fortunate members of our race became doctors, lawyers, preachers and school teachers. The unfortunate group became unskilled laborers who supported the first group of white collar men. Old System Top-heavy Here was the fault of education in other days; it was top-heavy. It made no provision for the young people who did not continue through high school. It turned out thousands of young Negroes, who were doomed to meet an unfavorable civilization, which would accept them only as menial laborers. To the Negro, the professional class was the ideal; the laborer was despised. And still, the laborer supported the professional group; while the currency, trickled away into the hands of business men and producers of other races. But thanks to the new concepts and ideals of modern education, we rejoice that the stigma has been removed from manual labor. We can now learn to be producers without attracting contempt. Youths of Today The youth of today, who will assuredly not finish high school, is given training in some industry for which he shows special fitness. The very diversity of this work tends to appeal to all dispositions and aptitudes and in such a way, bright sparks may be fired in many a breast.

Wilberforce Forfeits to Howard After Being Outplayed Local Sandlot Gridiron Classic Slated for Sunday OHIOANS' COUNCIL CHAIRMAN RUSHES ON FIELD, ORDERS OUIT ```markdown ``` Wilberforce Local San OHIOANS' COUNCIL RUSHES ON FI CHARLES F. POINTS DIRECTS TEAM TO LEAVE FIELD WITH SIX MINUTES TO PLAY By Sam Lacy Dissatisfied because of the ruling of Referee A. Kiger Savoy declaring legal, a touchdown made by "Tick" Smith in the closing minutes of the Howard-Wilberforce game last Saturday, the Big Green squad left the field and forfeited the game to the Bisons, 1-0. Charles F. Points, chairman of the Wilberforce Athletic Council led a parade of visiting partisans through the crowd of jeering spectators to the team's dressing quarters, after the two elevens had battled thru three quarters of scoreless football. Graves coach of the Ohio team, argued that the referee had blown his whistle when Smith fell and that the ball should have been declared dead. Points suggested forfeiture. Legality of Run Disputed The questionable play occurred with 6 minutes to play in the final quarter. "Tick" Smith, following a line plunge by Dan Brown which netted 2 yards and placed the ball on the Wilberforce 49-yard line, took the pass from center and made a thrust just inside the visitors' right flank. Reaching the line of scrimmage, Smith, by some means fell, but in a breath had rolled over and regained his feet. He then wormed his way aided by a perfectly formed interference 48 yards through the Wilberforce team to the goal line. The players' had lined up for the kick for extra point when the chairman of the invaders' Athletic Council ran into the field of play and entered a vigorous protest on the ground that the player's forward progress had been stopped. He declared that the touchdown was illegal, Coach Graves was of the same opinion and the boys were directed to retire. Spectators Jeer Visitors Surging on to the field the mob of scoffing spectators surrounded the visiting players. Several blaws between defenders of the two sides were barely averted, and only with difficulty were the members of the team able to reach the gymnasium where their quarters were. Prior to the forfeiture, the game was one of the best exhibitions of football in which Howard has participated since the players were threatened with the university's refusal to feed them. Jack Young was easily the offensive works of the locals and the outstanding ground gainer of the contest. His slashing off tackle thrusts gave many a thrill to the vast assemblage. Even the staunchest rooter of the visiting horde applauded the remarkable efforts of the Bison halfback. Hawkins a Star "Little Crow" Hawkins, so named by his teammates was the most aggressive of the Blue and White linemen. The undersized guard in his first year on the Hilltop outplayed the veterans. He was "in" on every Wilberforce play, and on several occasions tackled a visiting back before that worthy could reach the scrimmage line. On punts, Hawkins was down field with the ends. Captain Harding and Green were the visitors' mainstays. The former proved himself to be a triple threat man of ability and the latter, though kept well in hand by the Bison lineman exhibited a nifty knack of shifty ball carrying. Wu Fang Ward was, literally "no trouble." He was perhaps the least troublesome of the Ohioans' backfield. Howard Wilberforce Mack ..... L.E. Redden V.Smith ..... L.T. Tynes Hawkins ..... L.G.

LACY, Sports Editor "Tis sad indeed that our universities must have such offices as Boards of Athletic Control and Athletic Councils and Committees in Charge of Athletics and all that sort of bunglesome bunk when in reality they do more harm than good. No better example of their futility needs be offered than that of the Wilberforce University football team in its game with Howard last Saturday when, under the direction of the school's Chairman of the Athletic Council, the players left the field in an attitude of "Oh, get a-way; that isn't fair, we are certainly not going to play." Since that time many of us have upbraided the 'Force boys. Some of us have even gone so far as to call the team "yellow." Now, let's be fair. The blame is being mislaid. The boys are not responsible, Mr. Points is at fault. The students at our Universities are taught and compelled to respect the authority of their elders and certainly their professors. Mr. Points is not only a professor; he is also chairman of the Wilberforce Athletic Council, which in itself is supposed to be a big thing. He ordered the boys off the field in the face of their willingness to finish the game. They retired, of course. Now then, it seems to the writer that when one holding the position Mr. Points does, compels such an action on the part of his students, the body he represents is indorsing backward steps rather than taking strides of a progressive nature. True sportsmanship can never exist if college officials continue this sort of pettiness. If no such board or council existed it would not be possible for one man to run out onto the field of play during an athletic contest and stop the game because things were not going to suit him. If there was no such committee as the one on which Mr. Points serves, college athletes, who in most cases have a fair degree of sportsmanship, could maintain a spirit of good will and yet have no reason to show disregard for their instructors. INSTITUTE SQUAD DOWNS HAMPTON HANDS SHAW LINCOLN LIONS SEVERE PASTEING CHARLESTON, W. Va. — A fighting Lion team stung by four successive defeats battled the West Virginia Collegiate Institute eleven gamely in an effort to win last Friday but the brilliant open field running of Nash and the relentless line smashing of Edwards were too much for them. Although defeated 20 to 6, Lincoln put up a game fight which showed that gradually Morrison is welding a real team out of his green material and that Howard is in for a battle Thanksgiving. With a crowd numbering nearly 3,000 looking on, Nash, after Kyle had recovered a loose ball on Lincoln's 40-yard line, sidestepped his way 38 yards to the 2-yard mark. On the next play McConnell hurtled through the defending line for the first score. Nash's 50-yard run back of one of of LaMar's long spiral punts was the feature of the game. He alone was the individual star of the con- test. Institute Lincoln Washington .L.E. Temple Kyle .L.G. Hill Lennon .L.T. Bryant Johnson .Center Young Anderson .R.G. Robinson Stevens .R.T.

This was another error for Ward, and he was immediately yanked. Snell replaced him, and Nixon downed the ball on the 49-yard ribbon. A cross-buck which ended in a pass from Mendendahl to Green netted the visitors 5 yards. Wilberforce was penalized 5 yards for overline in the huddle. Vernon Smith substituted for Hawkins. Another criss-cross play lost 3 yards for the Ohioans. A pass from Harding to Hudson was incomplete. Harding punted and Nixon downed the bal lon the 49-yard line. Brown made 2 yards at center. Smith started a run off-tackle, lost his feet, fell free, and was up again behind perfectly formed interference which enabled him to siz-gap 46 yards to the last white line. The teams had lined up for extra point when Charles F. Points ran on to the field and called the visitors off. NEW QUINT FORMING HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Nov. 7.—Hampton's Blue and White team defeated the already many times defeated Shaw University team in the Raleigh League Park on November 5, with the overwhelming score of 45-0. From the kick-off it was plain that Hampton had things pretty much their own way. Shaw kicked to Hampton and Byrd received the ball to run through the entire Shaw team for a seventy-yard run. He was not tackled until reaching the ten-yard line. Throughout the game Bulldog Williams, Wildman Lee, Byrd, and Wop Hunter played havoc with the Shaw squad. Bulldog Williams contributed three touchdowns, Byrd, two, Wildman Lee, one and Beau Guest, one. Shaw, however, was not without its stars. There was Chambers in the backfield who had to be watched constantly. He placed Shaw twice within scoring distance in the second half, when the Bears seemed to be a real threat. Hampton's forward wall was equal to the test and drove the Bears out of the danger zone. On the line was Captain Hughes in tackle and Black on end, who were shining lights.

C. eleven before a crowd of some 3,000 fans which lined the boundaries of the field at the Monument lot last Sunday afternoon. Bell's costly fumble on his team's 33-yard ribbon, paved the way for the Buffalo defeat late in the first quarter. Having fallen on a loose ball just prior to the touchdown, the Orange and Black fullback on a series of line plunges carried the oval to the 30-yard line. On the next play he hit the line for 3 yards, but when tackled lost his hold on the pigskin. Proctor recovered it. A steady march carried the ball to within 5 yards of the final strip from where "Keystone" Davis ran it over.

By Sam Lacy THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1927 BEARS TO PLAY RIVAL ROAMERS What promises to be the fastest and most hotly contested grill of the present grid season is the contest between Willie Mac Murray's Alexandria Roamers, the prides of Virginia, and Johnnie Mac Tatum's Teddy Bears carded for the Monument lot Sunday. Boasting of the strongest combinations in the history of their clubs, these two traditional rivals will perhaps attract one of the largest crowds of football enthusiasts ever to witness a football fray in this city. Having come out ahead in the 1926 series the boys from across the river are looking forward to repeating. Their victories over two other District teams, the Pirates and the Buffaloes have given the Murraymen added confidence. The west end aggregation, on the other hand is, like a restless two-year-old, straining at the barrier. The time, it appears, cannot fly quickly enough for the Bears so eager are they for the chance to avenge the stinging defeat they suffered last year. They, too, boast of a win over the Buffaloes. Dorsey, Blue, Grisby, Conrad and Hamilton stand out as the shining lights of the Blue and White aggregation while the Orange and Blue machine boasts of a set of capable performers in the persons of Scott, Brooks, Shanklin, Hawkins and Clark. “Pick” Strange, a newcomer to the Alexandria horde, will bear plenty of watching, if his performance against the Ebenezer team last Sunday is to be taken as an example. He is an end. ATLANTA U. ELEVEN DEFEATS MOREHOUSE 26-0 ATLANTA, Ga.—Atlanta University invaded the den of the Morehouse Tigers last Saturday and took their measure at 26 to 0. Atlanta went in to repeat last year's performance of a touchdown from the first kick-off. They could not repeat the trick but they did score the first touchdown in exactly one minute. The Tigers growled menacingly but Atlanta meant business too and after a run of ten yards by Edwards and a pass for ten yards more, Atlanta pushed over the second touchdown in ten minutes after the first whistle. Red Jones broke loose for a run of nineteen yards and then a pass completed the third touchdown and the end of the first quarter, making the score 19 to 0. The second quarter was lit up by a brilliant plunge from McPherson for twelve yards right through center. Successive drives led to the fourth touchdown and closed the first half with a score of 26 to 0. There was no more scoring. During the entire game Atlanta made nineteen first downs to two by Morehouse. Atlanta tried sixteen passes with six to the good and Morehouse tried nine with one successful. Atlanta gained 182 yards by rushing and Morehouse gained 40. Line-up: Atlanta Position Morehouse Clay .L.E. Archer Moon .L.T. Sherman Ford .L.G. Allen Cobb .Center Mann Warren .R.G. Cook Moody .R.T.

Smarting under their 7-0 deafest last year at the hands of the locals, Coach Aiken has been bending his energies toward winning their game and evening the score. The Atlanta team suffered quite a set-back in the loss of Lamar, one of its last season's stars, but this has been more than offset by the acquisition of Whedbee, former star quarterback on the Virginia Seminary eleven, whose generalship and all around playing won for him a place in the foremost rank of eclored gridiron players. He is playing an even stronger game for Atlanta, while Mc.Pherson, the star half back of last season, is living up to his previous reputation. The Atlanta boys have won most of the games played this season, and held the strong Fisk team to a 0-0 score, which team played the Bisons to a 13-13 score. While reports have reached Howard that the Georgia boys are confident of capturing the game, Coach Watson feels that nothing can now stop his rejuevated Bisons. A hard and stubborn battle is expected. FISK EASILY DOWNED BY TUSKEGEE ALUMNI BOWL, Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Nov. 5—After playing the Tuskegee Tigers to a standstill in the first quarter the Fisk Bulldogs broke under the strain of the steady drive and punch of Coach Abbott's men and lost by a score of 32 to 0. A brilliant array of rooters were present and heard the crack Tuskegee band of sixty pieces play during the halves. The Tigers scored in the first half by virtue of Stevenson's 20-yard run which placed the ball on the 7-yard line from which point Wooten toted it over. In the second half the Tigers drove through the weakening Fisk line with plunges and sweeping end runs by Stevenson, Shanklin and Steward. Two fumbles in this half were costly for Fisk. A safety was scored when McErlay, playing fullback for Pope, was tackled behind the Fisk goal line. After this the Tuskegee team showed to a decided advantage with long, spectacular runs by Stevenson, Wooten and Steward featuring the game. Line-up and summary: Tuskegee Position Fisk I.

DUNBAR AND BOOKER T. IN SCORELESS DRAW With the score 7-6 in favor of the Ebenezer church eleven, and the Alexandria Roamers pushing hard to what in all probability would have been a second touchdown for the Virginians, the Ebenezer team quit the field and thereby forfeited an otherwise well-contested game to the Virginians. The church lads claimed that the refree had not placed the ball in the proper position when it was replaced for the last quarter. Dunbar's grid squad journeyed to Norfolk, Virginia, Friday, November 3, met Booker T. Washington and played them to a 0-0 deadlock. The contest was rough in spots and was stopped several times due to injuries received by Dunbar men. Thrice Booker T. walked to Dunbar's 10-yard line but each time the line tightened and held, forcing Booker T. to relinquish the ball. Once Dunbar threatened, but with the ball on Booker T.'s one-yard line due to a 10-yard pass from Larry to Beck- Bad sportsmanship was shown throughout the entire game on the part of the Ebenezer team and their followers.

NORFOLK, Va.—Before a large and enthusiastic band of grid devotees the Panthers of Union, though outplayed, rallied in the closing minutes to take the long end of a short 6-0 count from Coach E. P. Hurt's Virgilia Seminary Dragons here last Saturday. In the third quarter Union scored. Breaux received Davis' punt and ran it back 10 yards. Washington on the next play charged through the center of the Seminary line, sidestepped and shifted past the secondary defense and made his way to the goal. The first half was all Seminary's. On several occasions the Dragons backed their opponents into the shadow of their own goal posts. Each time, however, the Union zero mark was fortunate enough to remain uncathed. Fowler and Rainey starred for the Hurt eleven while Breack, Washington and Tobin stood out for Union. Seminary Union Joffrees . . . L.T. . . . Ruffin Tailor . . . L.G. . . Macklin Walker, c. .

C.—Brice Taylor's boys had another bad day when they met the Livingstone Bears, and were unable to get off with a fast start, and were not only held in the first half but their goal was dangerously threatened. The first half ended with no one scoring. Final score, Clafin, 22; Livingstone, 0. NORTH CAROLINA COLLEGE TRIMS ST. AUGUSTINE RALEIGH, N.C. Oct. 29. — In a belated exhibition of a superior brand of football, North Carolina College for Negroes beat St. Augustine here today by a score of 18-0. PAINE DOWN VOORHEES Paine steamrolled, passed, and tricked the Voorhees eleven to the extent of 39 to 0 last week on Paine Field to win her third consecutive conference victory. FLORIDA JAZZ BYRDS DEFEAT GEORGIA STATE COLLEGE 18-0 TALLAHASSEE, Fla., Oct. 28. —Jazz Byrd's meteoric eleven defeated Georgia State College here on Friday, October 28, by a score of 18-0. BALTIMORE, Md.-Wilbur Cohen, of New York, won an eight-round decision over Willie K. O. Smith, of Baltimore, in the feature bout at the New Albert Auditorium Friday night. Over 2,000 fans milled the ring in the seventh round when both boys stood toe to toe and hammered away. In the long run the ring experience of the New York boy told. It was all the police could do to keep the fans from rushing the ring, so great was the excitement. Cohen weighed in at 126 pounds and Smith, 129. In the semi-final "Iron Man" Dillard won a six-round verdict over Lefty Cooper in a slashing fight. On Tuesday night, November 15, Young Harry Wills will meet Joe Grant, of New York, in a 10-round fight. The bouts at the New, Albert are under the direction of *the Northwestern A.

PAINE DEFEATS CLAFLIN Before several hundred Paine students and Augusa's football fans, Paine swept her way to her fourth straight victory Friday afternoon in Orangeburg by overwhelming the Claflin Panthers, 32 to 8. Brice Taylor's eleven, doped out by experts to have an even chance, with Paine, found itself hopelessly outclassed from the very be-inning by a machine vastly superior in every department of play. MORRIS BROWN DOWNS TENN. STATE NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A cold drizzling rain which fell throughout the afternoon failed to stop the Morris Brown Wolverines in their battle with Tennessee State on the latter's grounds last Saturday. The score was 10-9. The first half ended 2-0, the only score being made by the Wolverines when early in the game Dungan blocked a State punt. Both teams scored safeties and touchdowns in the second half. State added their extra point. A. AND T-HAMPTON GAME NOVEMBER 12 A. and T. College Aggies have reached the crest of the hill that shows the way to the championship of the C. I. A. A. There is, however, an obstruction that looms up, and that obstruction is none other than Hampton's big Blue and White team. If the Aggies are victorious in the A. and T-Hampton home-coming game the flag of the C. I. A. A. will probably float over the home of the Bulldogs as has been predicted by one of my contemporary sport scribes. But if Hampton should force the Bulldogs back to his house with no satisfaction, the Blue and White will still have another world to conquer in the image of the Pawing Panther. Taking all in all the game of November 12 on Armstrong Field representing the home-coming affair at Hampton, will be well worth the while. Both teams are in excellent condition. Coach Ruffin Hampton's line coach, has been at tempting to perfect a defense to stop A. and T.'s battering rams Lane and Coleman.

I was up in a second though, and was never really tackled. No one was more surprised at the Wilberforce contention than I." A. K. Savoy, referee: "Smith did not hit the ground while in the grasp of an opponent. He fell free of anyone, squirmed, got up and ran. He would have been down and the ball declared dead had his forward progress been completely stopped, or had he been in the grasp of an opponent. Neither, in my opinion, occurred, therefore I did not sound my whistle." L. U. Gibson, an Eastern Board Official, who witnessed the game: "The player has never been down according to the rules." Among others to share this opinion are W. E. Morrison, Lincoln University Athletic Director, William Wright, Eastern Board Official, and E. P. Westmoreland, Coach of Armstrong High eleven and an Eastern Board Official. Wilberforce Statements Captain Harding, Wilberforce field leader, and star halfback: "The whistle blew and play should have been stopped." Conch Graves, Wilberforce mentor: "The referee blew his whistle, but did not stop the play. The touchdown was illegal." Charles F. Points, Chairman of Wilberforce Athletic Council, who stopped the game: "The man was tackled, the whistle sounded and the ball was dead. The decision was unfair." A special letter received Tuesday from Mr. Points says. To whom it may concern: I admit that it was not good sportsmanship to have the Wilberforce football team leave the field in protest of an official's decision at Howard University, Saturday, November 5, yet, as chairman of the Athletic Council, Wilberforce University, I assume full responsibility for their actions, as there are times and circumstances when even good sportsmanship ceases to be a virtue." Watson is Sorry L. L. Watson. Howard University Coach: "I have nothing to say, except that I am sorry." Haley Douglass, umpire of the game: "The man was not in the THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1927 grasp or an opponent. E. B. Henderson, field judge: "The rules state that a player must be in the grasp of an opponent when any portion of his person except his hands or feet touches the ground in order to be declared down. Smith was not." Benjamin Washington, headlinesman: "The referee's decision was right." A telegram from Dr. Gilbert H. Jones, president of Wilberforce University, stated, "I know nothing official about the Howard game and forfeit. I have nothing to say. I regret the incident very much." Dr. E. P. Davis, chairman, Board of Athletic Control, Howard University: "I have nothing to say at present. I am very sorry." Know Football Question—Team A has the ball on its opponent's 3-yard line ready to play. Team B player darts offside when center of Team A passes the ball and a member of his side carries it across the goal line. Team B argues that the off-side play calls for a penalty and the touchdown should not be allowed. Answer—Touchdown is allowed. Team A declines the penalty. This matter of declining penalties calls for good and quick judgment. In the Navy-Notre Dame game, the Navy elected to accept a five-yard penalty for off-side on a kick, after the kick had travelled long into Notre Dame territory. The penalty still left the Navy with fourth down and six yards to go. The next play was a kick which was blocked and converted into a touchdown by Notre Dame. On the other hand in the Lincoln-Tuskegee game, Tuskegee accepted in lieu of a five-yard penalty the advantage of a kick, when the five-yard penalty would have given them a first down with ten yards to go. When the captain of a team makes his choice known he is not allowed to change his decision. Q. If a ball is passed from the center to a back who muffs it and it hits the ground, is it dead when it hits the ground? A. No. But on a second pass, if the player receiving it simply muffs but does not fumble it, it automatically dies when it hits the ground. Q. When a player attempting to make a forward pass is struck with the ball in his hand and loses the ball, is it ita fumble or incomplete pass? A. It is a fumble, unless it actually passes the ball forward a he is hit.

Another team B man catches it before it strikes the ground and to avoid being tackled runs back of his goal line and is there downed in the end zone. What is the ruling? A—Safety. Team B man had ball in his possession and carried it across his own goal, and was downed behind his goal line. Q—Team A on 8-yard line. On fourth down it punts. Team B blocks the ball. Ball rolls over the goal line of team A and outside the end zone, where it is recovered by team B player. What is the ruling? A—Safety. The bounds of the field are the limits of play. As soon as ball crossed end zone line or side line extended it was out of play and automatically a safety. Q—Team A punts. Ball is touched by player of team B on five-yard line and then it rolls without any further impetus across team B's goal line. Then team A man falls on it in end zone. What is the ruling? A.—Touchdown. Ball touching team B man puts everybody onside. Team B man should have fallen on the ball in the end zone if he wished to kill it, for the ball is not automatically dead, having been touched by team B man on the field of play. Q.—Team A punts. Team B blocks the kick behind the line of scrimmage. A member of team B recovers the ball and runs for a touchdown. Is this a touchdown? A.—Yes. When a kick is blocked either side may recover. The team blocking the kick, team B, may advance the ball if it recovers it. Team A, the kicking team is the only team restrained on this play. It can recover the ball but it cannot advance it. Q.—Can a runner when tackled near the side line make a backward pass out of bounds and get the ball brought in 15 yards? A.—Yes. There is nothing in the rules to prevent a backward pass being made in order to obtain a better position. Q.—Fourth down, four yards to go, ball is on the 40-yard line. Team A makes a long forward pass with evident intention of grounding the ball in team B's end zone. Can this be ruled intentional grounding of a pass or is it a touchback? A.—It is a touchback. It is not for the referee to decide on this play the intent of the passer. There are two many possibilities. Q.—If three men in the backfield shift and the fourth stands still, can he start in motion backward immediately after the other players come to a stop? A.—Yes. The restraint imposed by Rule IX, Section 6, is only upon men who take part in a shift or huddle. Hence, it also follows any man who does not enter the huddle can be in motion towards his All Years y Appointed Cor. Broad and Locust Streets Capacity 8,000 DANCING from 8 p. m.

Q.-Suppose a huddle occurs after a time out, when the watch is stopped; when does the official start to count? A.-Just as soon as the referee signals to play, even though the game watch does not start until the bell is snapped. Q.-On first down, “A” rushes the ball and makes first down on the play. On this play a man on “A” team is injured. “A” asks for time out, and it happens to be the fourth time out. A 5-yard penalty is given when the injured man is not removed. Linesman rules it is first down, 15 yards to go. Referee rules first down and ten. Who is right? Q.-Should the referee of the game inform the captain of the team of the options he has when a foul has been committed? A.—Yes. Rule 25. Section 6, states: "In a case a foul has been committed the referee is expected to explain to the captain of the offended team his options." Q.—Has the kicking team any right to touch a ball kicked from scrimmage? A.—No. However, if the ball is touched by or touches a player on defense, everybody on the kicking team is placed onside and anyone may recover the ball. If the ball is recovered by the kicking team, it cannot advance the ball. The ball belongs to it at the point of recovery. If the receiving team on this play fumbles the ball, after clearly having it in its possession, the kicking team may recover the ball and also advance it. Q.—Does the huddle end when one man, such as the center, comes out of it and takes his position over the ball? A.—No. All players must break away and assume their regular positions before the huddle is judged to be at an end. FLA, JAZZ BIRDS, 19; FLORIDA NORMAL, 0 TALLAHASSEE. Fla., Nov. 4.—The Florida Jazz Byrds won their first State Conference game, and third victory of the season by defeating F. N. I. I. here today, 19-0. At the outset, it seemed as though, the game was a punting dual. Both teams were forced to punt. Florida Jazz Byrds, however, soon opened up an aerial attack that made things look bad for the visiters. Mahone, Jazz Byrd's speedy end, snagged passes gaining considerably. Florida made its first touchdown in the second quarter by a sneaking end play, a pass from Bragg to Mahone who carried the ball over. N. C. COLLEGE SWAMPS JOS K. BRICK, 44-6 DURHAM, N. C.—With a fast-moving, smooth-working backfield machine, and a line greatly strengthened by the many changes made by Coach Waters, the "Eagles" of N. C. College swept their lighter opponents of Jos K. Brick Junior College off their feet in a one-sided game on the grounds of the local college here Saturday. Snappy, backfield work, including several deceptive triple, double and delayed passes, lateral and fake passes, mixed with some good straight football, shot the heavy "Eagle" backs into Bricks' line and around her ends for long gains. The final score was 44-6. LOW SCORE FOR PRAIRIE VIEW WACO, Texas, Nov. 3.—Coach Jimmie Law's Prairie View Panthers, led by the constant gains of Captain Marks, defeated the Paul Quinn Tigers by the score of 2-0, here today. The Tigers fought well for the first ten minutes of play but from that time throughout the game their fight was somewhat weak.
