Proposed Dismissals and Retirements Stir Howard BAY ST. LOUIS, Miss., June 4. —In recognition of his successful stand against a mob bent on lynching two of his prisoners, former Sheriff Joseph V. Bontemps was honored by his fellow citizens here this morning by the presentation of a handsome bronze medal, awarded by a committee of distinguished Southerners.

CAMERON APTS ARE LOOTED BY SNEAK THEIF Takes Jewelry, Clothing and Valuables from Two Apartments Suites 43 and 44, on the fourth floor of the Cameron Apartments, Vermont avenue and T street, northwest, were entered by a sneak thief Monday forenoon, and robbed of jewelry, clothing, and other articles of value. From apartment 43, occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. Anderson, the thief removed several dresses and other valuables belonging to Mrs. Anderson. It was evident that the robber knew that Mr. Anderson and his wife were usually away from home during the day time, as his careful selection of such garments as seemed to suit his fancy indicated that he had spent some time in the apartment. Apartment 44, occupied by Miss Mrs. Anderson. It was evident of a more hurried search. Receipts and other papers in a dresser drawer in Mrs. Stokes' room were scattered about in great profusion. Among the articles which Mrs. Stokes states were stolen are two diamond earrings and a lavalier with diamond setting, valued at approximately $150. A pair of sterling silver cuff links, treasured mainly as memosent of her deceased father, were also taken. In his hurry, the thief overlooked money laying on the mantel.

PUBLISHED WEEKLY 一 Dashi smissa DIVORCE FOLLOWS RAID DIVORCE DUNBAR HIGH AGAIN WINS JOHNSON FOLLOWS ALL THREE PLACES IN CHIDES RAID COMPETITIVE DRILL STUDENTS A. J. Diggs Sues Wife Who Was Taken From "Love Nest" by Police NOW PAYING ALIMONY Charges Misconduct on Her Part Since First Year of Marriage As the result of a raid on a Diggs, 1636 Thirteenth street, northwest, May 27, Arthur J. Diggs, 1636 Thirteenth street, northwest, filed suit in the District Supreme Court Monday for an absolute divorce from Mrs. Susannah Diggs. He named Samuel C. Hawkins as the co-respondent. In his bill of complaint, Mr. Diggs states that the correspondent rented an apartment at the P street address on April and lived there with Mrs. Diggs as man and wife until the early morning of May 27 when police raided the "love nest" and arrested them on a statutory charge. They were convicted in police court May 31. Mr. Diggs alleges that his wife and the correspondent misconducted themselves at No. 1884 Columbia road, northwest, in the latter part of the year 1927 and the first part of the year 1928, spending at least three nights a week together. He also charges that they misconducted themselves at No. 310 Elm street, northwest, in the years 1924, 1925 and 1926. Since 1912 From 1912 to 1923, he says, his wife has been known to go with unknown persons. In fact, he alleges, that from the very first year of their married life, she has shown no regard for her marital vows but has "consorted with all sorts of immoral and loose persons." Whenever he attempted to remonstrate with her about her conduct, he states, she would hurl vituperation upon him and insisted she would go around with whom ever she pleased. On one occasion, he says, she attempted to asphyxiate him by turning on the gas while he was asleep. In October, 1919, Mr. Diggs sought to establish residence in Rosslyn, Va. He filed a petition for an absolute divorce in the circuit court of Arlington County, Va., November 6, 1920. The court granted his petition February 21, 1921. Wife Asks for Divorce Mrs. Diggs went into the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, April 26, 1921, asking for a limited divorce. On the ground that the Virginia decree was fraudulent, the District Supreme Court granted her a limited divorce and ordered Mr. Diggs to pay her $3 a week alimony. This he has been paying ever since. Mr. Diggs now asks the District Supreme Court to grant him an absolute divorce and relieve him of the payment of the $3 weekly alimony. The couple were married in Alexandria, Va., March 17, 1910. Mr. Diggs is represented by the law firm of Haves and Davis. CHARGES NONSUPPORT WANTS DIVORCE Mrs. Daisy M. Brown, 1429 Corcoran street, northwest, Tuesday, asked the District Supreme Court to grant her a limited divorce from Bernard Brown, a city post office employee, 321 T street, northwest. She charges non-support. In her petition Mrs. Brown says that her husband was never industrious. He loafed for almost a year, she states, while she struggled to keep their home going by taking in roomers. While he loafed, she supported him and their minor child, she says. He has not contributed anything to their support, she claims, since February. In August, 1927, Mrs. Brown charges her husband took Lottie Allen in his automobile to Newport News, Va. The Allen woman telephoned and wrote her advising her of this trip, Mrs. Brown asserts. Mrs. Brown asks the court to grant her a limited divorce and alimony. The couple were married in the District of Columbia, June 29. They have a 9-year-old boy. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JUNE 8, 1928 Since 1912 --- Again—as last year—cadet companies of the Dunbar High School made a clean sweep of honors in the annual competitive drill, held at American League Park. Thursday afternoon. It was the thirty-sixth competition to be staged by the local high school cadet units. Company F, commanded by Captain Benjamin Henley, was the winner; Company A was second; and Company B third. The second place company was led by Captain Burke Syphax. Prior to the drill A was considered the favorite to capture the coveted prize. Robert G. McGuire commanded Company B. A crowd of approximately 25,000 persons, old and young, the majority of which sported either the Red and Black of the victor or the Orange and Blue of the vanquished, saw the drill. The regiment was reviewed by F. Trubee Davidson, Assistant Secretary of War. Lieutenant Colonel Benjamin O. Davis, U.S.A.; Lieutenant-Colonel John E. Green, U.S.A.; and Lieutenant-Colonel W. A. Hamilton, R.O.C., were the judges. The Twenty-fourth Regiment consists of three battalions of three companies each. It is commanded by Lieutenant-Colonel Elmer Stokes. Repetition of Last Year The complete washout of Armstrong hopes was a repetition of last year's feat. In 1927, Companies B, E, and F were selected as three place winners in the order named. Of those companies, B and F simply changed places and E gave way to A in the competition, Thursday. The diamond teachers' medal was pinned on Captain Henley by Mr. Davidson, while his subordinate commissioned officers were decorated with gold medals. The teachers' medal carries a long line of links upon which are engraved the names of winning captains of previous years. Captain Henley will wear the medal until commencement. His name will be engraved at the bottom of the present string. A gold medal also presented him is his permanent possession. The overwhelming victory serves as more than sweet revenge for the defeat of the Dunbar battalion in the annual battalion competition, held May 15, at Howard Stadium. This was won by the Armstrong Second Battalion, Maj. Eaton Harrison, in command. School Officials Present Frank W. Ballou, Superintendent of Public Schools; Garnet C. Wilkinson, Assistant Superintendent of Schools; Dr. J. Hayden Johnson, Rev. F. I. A. Bennett, Mrs. Mary McNeill, Retired Supervising Principal John Nalle, Walter L.

(Continued on page 3) Gets 30 Days Along With Black Eye, Swollen Lip, and Bruises Arming himself with a razor, John H. Campbell, an actor, early last Sunday morning, went to the Second Precinct Police Station to report that he had been attacked by a mob near Seventh and M streets, and severely beaten. He was arrested on a concealed weapon on charge and in Police Court, Monday, was given 30 days to go along with a swollen lip, a black eye and lacerations of the body administered to him by the crowd Campbell testified that he had applied to the police for their aid in his effort to collect a sum of money from a man who owed him for services rendered. This visit was made about 1 o'clock Monday morning. Campbell declared that he had not gotten more than two squares from the precinct when he was accosted by a number of men who charged him with being a "police pimp" and beat him up. He declared that the gang chased him and that one of them attacked him with a razor. He exhibited several slashes in his clothing. Is a Magician Campbell said he is an actor, playing the Mid City Theatre in the role of magician. He was, while here, staying at 1251 Seventh street, northwest. When the mob chased him, Campbell said, he ran to his room, armed himself with the razor, for protection while he went to the police station to report the assault. When the precinct police investigated the slashes in the man's clothing to learn whether or not he had been cut, they found the razor in a vest pocket, they then charged him with carrying concealed weapons. He told the court that he had reported the occurrence in the full faith that the policemen would protect him. He also declared that he recognized some of the men in the gang. Campbell was fined $50. For the failure to pay, he was sentenced to serve thirty days. CARSON OPERATES ON WIFE OF CHAS. LANE Mrs. Ione Lane a public school teacher, underwent an operation at Carson's Private Hospital last Saturday morning. Her husband, Charles Lane, came here from New York to be with her. Mrs. Lane is reported to be recovering nicely. BORNO MAY RETIRE AS PRES. OF HAITI Questions growing out of American occupation of Haiti are in a fair way to be settled in a manner that will refute accusations made against the American policy in that country, according to a statement issued by Senator Tasker L. Oddie, Republican, of Nevada, on June 1. Senator Oddie based his statement upon assurances contained in a recent message addressed by President Borno of Haiti to the Haitian Council of State, a translation of which from the original French the Senator made public with the explanation that he had received it from official sources. "This is a most important document," Senator Oddie said. "It promises elections in 1930 and forecasts American withdrawal from the Republic in 1936. It also refutes many false accusations which have been made against the American occupation, in very clear language." Senator Oddie interpreted the message as a pledge by President Borno that he would retire in 1930 and would guarantee fair elections to provide for the succeeding government. President Warns Seniors Against Sophistication In Baccalaureate Warning the graduating class of Howard University against sophistication, President Mordecal W. Johnson delivered the sermon at the baccalaurate service in the gymnasium-armory building, last Sunday afternoon. He advised them to do whole-heartedly whatever they are trained to do. This advice was contained in his text: "And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance." (Colossians 3:23-24). Dr. Johnson directed attention to the fact that the university had completed its work with each member of the graduating class, equipping them to minister to the needs of the world. "But there is one thing the university cannot guarantee to have done," he said. "The university cannot guarantee in the case of any individual graduating from its halls that he will whole-heartedly do what he is trained to do," he stated. He explained that there are two basic elements in any great life of intelligence. "One of those elements" he said, "is the intelligence itself and the other is the intangible thing which has to do with the weight a man puts behind his intelligence, the persistence with which he endures resistance to his intelligence in the particular circumstances and the power to hold on in spite of all obstacles." The university, he said, has prepared its graduates against diseases of the mind. "But there are also diseases of the spirit," he declared, "against which no university can prepare and in which the man of intelligence stands on fairly the same level as the man without advantage. Those are the diseases of the spirit—the disease in the thing we call a man's morale." "Morale, whole-heartedness, is a very difficult thing to lay hold on and keep in this world," he said. Dr. Johnson described certain symptoms of a broken morale. "Whenever a man believes that his work is only a means to an end," he said, "the disease has struck him." Money Getting Whenever a man makes his working hours a mere means to satisfy the hopes he entertains for an acquisitive life of money getting and spending on himself, the disease has him, he said. Not even the State, he said, can produce morale except in times of war when it taks upon itself the war when it takes upon itself the mon man great. He commended to the graduates "that sense of the weighty value of common every day existence" of the State in war times. He sug- (Continued on page 7) Dr. B. M. Rhetta Is New Alumni Head Dr. B. M.

BURCH RETURNS Prof. Charles Eaton Burch, associate professor of English at Howard University, returned to the city last week after spending eight months studying at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland. Prof. Burch plans to continue his studies through an extensive course. BALLOCH RETIRED BUT RETAINED At the recent meeting of the board of trustees of Howard University, it was voted to retire Dean Edward A. Balloch, of the Medical School, who has been in continuous service at the school for 49 years. However, Dean Balloch will continue as acting dean until his successor is appointed. It is understood that it was the desire of Dean Balloch to complete 50 years of service before retiring. According to a ruling of the board of trustees however, all instructors upon reaching the age of 70 years must be retired. Under the present arrangement, Dean Balloch is placed on the retired list, but will have the opportunity of completing 50 years of service to the university. Dean Balloch graduated from the Howard University School of Medicine in 1879.

Robinson, Mrs. Mary Chamberlain, 335 F street, northwest, filed suit in the District Supreme Court last Friday for an absolute divorce from Clarence Chamberlain. She names a woman by the name of Estel: with whom her husband is alleged to be living at 1453 Corcoran street, as the correspondent. They were married in Richmond, Va., October 17, 1924, Mrs. Chamberlain states, and while there they got along happily. Shortly after coming here, her husband began to run around at night and neglect her. They have one child, Joseph Edward Chamberlain, aged 3 years. IN WASHINGTON nearly everybody reads the TRIBUNE PRICE FIVE CENTS RUMOR 4 PROFS TO BE FIRED Howard Teachers May Be Given Opportunity To Resign STUDENTS PROTEST "Hilltop" Article "Just Rumor" Brewed Trouble The rumors of the dismissal of four college professors at Howard University, has aroused the indignation of the student body, according to prominent student leaders on the "Hill." An unconfirmed report stated that the trustees at their regular meeting Tuesday approved the dismissals. However, it is stated that some of the dismissed men, if not all of them will be given an opportunity to resign. The trouble grew out of an article published in the "Hilltop," a student publication, several weeks ago, under the title "Just Rumor." The article accused certain unnamed professors of undue familiality with girl students. The article was written by Walker H. Jordan, a student. Jordan was summoned before a special faculty committee to account for his accusations. A student committee furnished the president and faculty with names of professors who were accused. Students Appeal Upon learning that an effort was being made by university othecials to play politics or favorites a student committee called on (Continued on page 88) INDICT ATTORNEY FOR REMOVING FIXTURES 1 Garfield C. Thompson, lawyer 9 Hanover street, northwest, was indicted by the District grand jury last Thursday for removing fixtures in a house belonging to Miss Natalie E. Levy, a nurse, 2321 Ontario road, northwest. The indictment charges that he broke and tore from their places a water, drain and gas pipe in a house at No. 924 Barry place, northwest, February 5, 1927. According to witnesses before the grand jury, Thompson had purchased this property from Miss Levy but became behind in his monthly payments. The property was sold at public auction on February 4, 1927, it was testified, and Thompson became enraged and of the next day entered the house and tore down the fixtures. The tenants were away at the time and when they returned home it was testified, water had run all over the home. Miss Levy, Victor R. Daly and Mrs. Mary L. Stewart were witnesses before the grand jury. Pullman Porters Strike Is Called Off NEW YORK CITY.—The Pullman Porters will not strike at this time. The strike order which had been issued for noon Friday, June 8, has been recalled by A. Philip Randolph, general organizer for the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. This action, Randolph says, was taken at the urgent request of William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor. Mr Gren stated in a telegram to Randolph: "I am of the opinion it would be unwise to engage in a strike now."

REQUEST ADVERTISING REPRESENTATIVE Liberal Progressive Independent THOUGHT GIVEN to the economic life of the race will pay big dividends and is now in order. One thought communicated and backed up by performance may start a revolution. What can you produce, manufacture, transport, exchange or sell for a profit? THOSE RECEIVING DIPLOMAS should be told that those documents are merely a license to find a job, and by making good at it, to make the graduate eligible for his master's degree; that is why the ceremony is called "commencement." AGES 20 TO 40 are the earning years. At that time it is better to have something back of what you put on, than it is to have something to put on your back. It is wiser to work for the good time you are going to have than to talk about the good time you have had; and its means better health to put guts into your job than to reverse the operation. THE ROMANCE, OF NEGRO BUSINESS Trading is a kind of coquery; anybody can sell a person what he wants, but it takes a special kind of mental action to make a person buy what he would not buy but for the salesman. When we embarked in business, sellings pigs $^1$ feet, hot corn, crabs and fish, we simply brought to the homes of the people what was inconvenient for them to get; but with goods from the remote corners of the world, all canned on a shelf in the corner store, our business men are forced to create needs which they can and wish to satisfy—at a profit. One reason why the native Americans have largely given up business and taken to finance, is because they are up against the inherited trading capacity of the foreigners. The south central section of Europe was a meeting places for races from the four corners of the world for so long that the people from that section are born with a trader's instinct. Voice, humility, the ability to make the buyer feel that he is a special customer—coupled with unusual discretion, presentation of goods with condescension and with just enough suggestion to make the customer ask for "something better"—capping the whole transaction with the offering of more than the buyer feels that he has bargained for, all combine to give to business its elements of co-query. From peddling, we graduated to barber shops and eating houses, then to undertaking parlors with chapels, and to drug stores with tile floors and modern soft drink bars. Some of our attempts at business are still awkward and unable to command the voice and submission which please the customer, who may always "go elsewhere." The race patron is not yet married to race business, and it would be well to treat her accordingly. Life insurance, alone, has her sold, like the young lady who is inclined already toward a title or a degree. Male patrons of business are half sold by female salespeople, while female shoppers meet salesmen half way; there is coquery in business. THE HIGH SCHOOL CADETS Few ceremonies—and certainly no other city in the world offers better comparison, except perhaps the assembling of the young fasstisti in Rome—mean so much to the Negro in America as does the annual competitive drill and regimental review of the cadets of our high schools. The flower of the race, gathered from all quarters of the country, product of the American public school system and the selective process of racial life, and standing at the threshold of adult, male promise, offer themselves in exhibition and competition following a season of training and discipline in the infantry drill regulations of the United States Army. It is no wonder that we make of it almost a general holiday; it should be so treated. The occasion carries the potency of inspira- Washington Tribune Washington Tribune Published Weekly at Washington, D.C., by THE WASHINGTON PUBLISHING COMPANY, Inc. tion for younger boys, and the assurance of capacity to the parents who have sacrificed to provide educational opportunity for their offspring. The entire nation is interested in the display of receptivity of discipline and training which our boys make, because they are the offspring and descendants of those to whom Doctor Carter G. Woodson pays tribute in The Journal of Negro History for April, 1923, where he says: "Every time a foreign foe has threatened this nation, the Negro with unswerving patriotism and undaunted courage has contributed his full quota of protection. With profound sincerity he has offered his services to his country; with voluntary devotion he has laid himself upon the altar. These Negro soldiers have written their names high upon the scroll of fame." Every boy in the regiment of cadets feels that pride of achievement and that willingness to sacrifice so potent in establishing this branch of the school activities under the masterful and sheltering care of the late Major Arthur C. Brooks and the late Sergeant Major Christian A. Fleetwood, U.S.V. Whereas one thousand youth of our schools compete now before the public under their own colonel and majors, hardly more than two score demonstrated the attractiveness and possibility of the proposition more than 35 years ago when they dressed themselves in odd-size uniforms of the District National Guard and drilled on a platform erected in our largest auditorium, the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church. Out of that small beginning, the growth of the organization made possible trained militiamen and soldiers for the Spanish-American war, and heroes who gave the last full measure of devotion during the recent world conflict. In the person of their instructor, Captain Arthur C. Newman, the cadets have one who has passed from the beginning to the present moment, reflecting the intent, the ideals and the service a cadet may be called upon to perform, and showing how honorably it must be and may be done. Like all worthy enterprises, the high school cadet organization was conceived in high purpose and its roll of honor has given it a record and a spiritual heritage that attach to every member. Where they played, you play; Where they served, you may. The strong and great who've gone before Were tried and proven true by war. GANGS A serious social problem arises from the existence of so-called gangs among our younger men. Lacking leadership along lines of useful and worthy expenditure of energy, many of our younger boys both in and out of school have organized themselves into groups to prey upon the goods, security and peace of the community. What are some of the causes? What are some of the remedies? Since the public school system has control of boys from their sixth to their sixteenth years, we are forced to look to their practices for probable cause of the gang spirit. The presence of boys in classes with girls beyond the fourth grade or the tenth year, must modify the program of their schooling, and the presence of many women as their teachers during the period after ten years must provide an additional element of misdirection in the influences brought to play upon the boy. Any casual observer may witness the presence of numbers of boys in the streets and alleys during the day and night, in city and suburbs, where the gathering into groups of boys of mixed ages lays the foundation for the formation of the gang. Listening to the conversation of such groups of boys, reveals that their interest is stimulated by recital of exploit, involving escape from, or annoyance of, policemen. In some manner, the boys have established the idea that the police are their enemies and that prowess e nists in outwitting them. The absence of play space in the crowded areas of our city causes the gathering of boys into loafing groups wherever they may be tolerated, and the natural leadership of some of the number finds admiring followers. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY, JUNE 8, 1928 Of course, the social conditions which call conferences for social improvement in this District and neglect that element which comprises almost a fourth of the population, and the religious program which regards mischief as prompted by the spirit of the evil one, leave the boys to be influenced by any forces aiming to capitalize them, or to their own devices. At a recent meeting of a community center, the boys who were attracted by the presence of a light in a dark district and by the possible distribution of refreshments, made so noisy and rowdy a display, that one member refused to attend further meetings unless the center gave some attention to it, most annoying problem. Trials in the police court and the United States courts frequently result in group convictions due to the gang spirit. It is time to stop blinding ourselves to obvious facts as to the conditions among our boys resulting in recruits to criminality and its subsequent distress and disgrace, and to make some concerted attack upon the solution. We need more men who are less selfish and self-satisfied; branch Y.M.C.A.'s, in the northeast, southeast and southwest sections conducted for the boys of the street rather than for the boys of good homes; schools planned and operated to meet the needs of boys who are not attracted by the routine courses of study in mixed classes; men teachers who are first men and then trained to be teachers of boys; adequate provision for play spaces in the crowded sections of the city, before property values become prohibitive; and an arousal of the social conscience to its responsibility for the boys who are now lost to useful citizenship through conviction in the courts. The presence of the gang is everybody's problem and everybody's responsibility. It may and should be corrected and redirected. THE NEGRO AND PRESIDENT- IAL NOMINEES With the opening of the Republican National Convention next week in Kansas City, all thoughts naturally center on who the Republican presidential nominee will be. With the nomination of Governor Al Smith of New York by the Democrats three weeks hence, practically conceded by all but Tom Heflin, the Republicans offer for the moment the only political question for the Negro. When the G. O.P. nominee is trotted out, this question will practically be answered. It is an admitted fact now that Al Smith has a popular appeal to a large number of Negro voters. This liking for Governor Smith is generally actuated by two things. First: the Negro is naturally sympathetic for any person who is apparently being persecuted. The attack on Governor Smith because of his religion, has won for him many friends among Negroes because they could sympathize with him in his hours of unjust persecution. Second: The last eight years of Republican rule in the White House has not been exactly to the liking of thousands of Negroes throughout the land. To many of these, their political condition cannot be much worse under any circumstances, and therefore, as a protest against the indifference of the Republicans to these conditions, they are willing to support a progressive Democrat rather than support any more Republicans of the Harding-Coolidge type. To this group, a vote for Al Smith is a kick in the slats of the "Elephant." The so-called wetness of Al Smith does not particularly appeal to the Negro voters. Whatever the Negro's views are on the liquor question, they have not as yet begun to affect his selection of presidential candidates. Those who like liquor, know that, no matter who wins, they will be able to at least get the "run of the still," so why worry over a little thing like that when there are so many economic question to be settled? While there may be little outward manifestation in the way of loud protests there is an inward revolt brewing in the breasts of the Negroes of this country against the intolerable segregation that prevails everywhere, and all that is needed now to flame this intense feeling into an open insurrection against the Republicans, is a militant leader. Senator Cole Blease and Senator Thomas J. Heflin's verbosity during the closing weeks of the senate on the Negro question has simply added fuel to the Wames. Whether this intense feeling will break through in the form of an open revolt during the coming campaign, all depends on the candidates selected and the campaign methods used. If circumstances operate to produce the necessary leadership, this revolt will become a reality this summer. As the Negro now faces the Republican convention, there stands only one candidate who has done anything to merit the race's support and that man is Herbert Hoover. Two acts of Herbert Hoover set him out pre-eminently in the eyes of the Negro. First: The absolutely fair and impartial handling of the thousands of Negro flood sufferers in the Mississippi valley last year. Every Negro who worked in the flood district had nothing but praise for Mr. Hoover. Hundreds of incidents have been told of how he (Hoover) personally stopped prejudiced Southerners from exploiting the poor unfortunate refugees in the camps and even during the reconstruction. Second: When the matter of segregation in the Department of Commerce over which Mr. Hoover presides was brought to his attention, and he was told how objectionable this was to Negroes, despite the fact that he was then an active candidate for the presidential nomination, and apparently knowing how such a move would affect the Southerners, he made an investigation and within a week after the matter had been called to his attention, he issued an order abolishing all forms of racial segregation and this furnished plenty of ammunition for Blease and Heflin and others to hurl against him. Nevertheless, despite these vile attacks made against him, Mr. Hoover has not flinched or retracted one bit. He evidently believes he has done what is right and is willing to stand by his decision. Mr. Hoover is the only member of Mr. Coolidge's cabinet who has had the strength of character to abolish segregation. It is more than Mr. Coolidge himself was willing to do, for he has been importuned many times during his administration to issue the necessary executive order abolishing segregation, but he has refused. In fact, segregation has been extended a great deal under the Coolidge administration. Secretary Andrew Mellon of the Treasury refused to issue any order when the matter was brought to his attention. But Hoover? When he was shown that the practice was un-American, unChristian and against the spirit of American justice, he did not hesitate to abolish this vicious practice. The masses of Negroes have been quick to realize that in Mr. Hoover, the race has apparently a real friend. He did not give them empty promises, but actually produced the desired results. There is no other active or receptive candidate for the Republican nomination who can measure up to the pre-convention achievements of Mr. Hoover in so far a the Negro is concerned. Because of these facts, no other nominee could be sure of the Negro's vote next November. While Al Smith appeals to many Negroes, there is a fear that, whatever his views on the Negro question may be personally, he cannot override the views of the majority of his party leaders who hail from the South. It is recalled that the late Woodrow Wilson held out hopes to Negroes, but when he reached the White House, he found the weight of his advisers more than he could overcome. On the other hand, Grover Cleveland—who was from New York, as is Al Smith—did not yield to the Vardamans and Tillmans of his time. Whether Al Smith if elected would be a Cleveland or a Wilson is a question. However, if Hoover be the Republican nominee, there is every reason to believe that the great majority of Negro voters will be willing to give the old party another trial under his leadership. Hence as between Smith and Hoover, the Negroes will vote overwhelmingly for Hoover. Owing to the large numbers of Negroes now registered in the Middle West and East, this vote is formidable, and must be reckoned with by the candidates. It is in these very sections, too, where Al Smith is supposed to be popular. As the Negro faces the conventions Herbert Hoover looms as his preference. T. THOMAS FORTUNE With his three score and twelve years full of achievement, T. Thomas Fortune, the dean and unchallenged leader of newspaper men of our racial group, and a man without many peers in any group, laid down the burdens of KIDDIES' CORNER Dear Editor: Here is my sentence of at least ten words, each word containing double letters, written with pencil. School ..... Grade ..... TRIBUNITE'S PLEDGE 1. I will never use the word "nigger." 2. I will learn all that I can about the history and traditions of my Race. 3. I will use my eyes and ears to detect slander against my Race, and I will champion my Race wherever I may hear such slander. 4. I will be proud that I am a Negro because God made me one, and, being a Negro, I will do all that I can to add honor to my Race. Prizes for the Longest Double Letter Sentences EARN TICKETS WHILE YOU ARE HAVING LOTS OF FUN Remember—It is the best longest sentence that counts this week. Do not use more than THREE proper names in a sentence. This week the contest will be different. You are to make sentences of MORE than ten words, each word having double letters in it. There is lots of fun for you. Tickets will be given for the Suburban Gardens to the writers of the sentences published on this page, next week. Do not make two words of one word, such as "foot ball" (two words) for "football" (one word). Hyphenated words are permissible. The editor of the Kiddies' Corner will give an admission ticket to Suburban Gardens for each sentence published. All letters must be addressed to the Editor, "Kiddies' Corner." They must be in the Tribute office, U street. Northwest, not later than 8 p.m., Tuesday, June 12. Winners will be announced, Friday, June 15. You may send in as many sentences as you wish, providing that one coupon (as above) cut out of the Tribute, accompanies them. Cut out the blank above and show it to your friends. Suggest to them that if they write a good double letter sentence, that they this life at the home of his son in Philadelphia, last week. Because this man fought with ideas expressed in words and backed up by a courage that met every challenge undaunted, he was not the spectacular leader whom the masses followed; but because of the rectitude of his social theory and is own innate superiority which refused to compromise with anything less than justice and right, he benefited thousands who never knew him. Born just prior to the Civil War, he breathed into his Indian-African blood the heat and hatred of that conflict, and emerged as a youth into the Reconstruction period armed with the highest ideals and the capacity and courage to stand, to speak, to write and to fight for them. His merit found for him a place on the editorial staff of the New York Sun under that master of American journalism, Charles A. Dana, and he closed his career as a contributor to the metropolitan journal with the largest circulation among the greatest variety of peoples, the New York World. It is a marvel of nature that his fiery temper and his prodigious labors did not sooner draw too heavily upon his slender physical resources, but he made up in fire and spirit what he lacked in strength, and offered us our finest example of blended mental and moral courage—a rare combination in any man of our times. The American people have lost a rare and useful man; the colored people have lost an unrivalled leader without guile or selfish intent, and the newspaper fraternity has lost one who stood alone at the top as editor and publisher of newsprint which made public opinion and modified political and social operations. Even his enemies must mourn in respect for a worthy foeman; and he made enemies among those who loved darkness and injustice. In the language of Elbert Hubbard: "He who speaks the truth and acts upon what he thinks and speaks, will find Golgotha not far ahead." I may win tickets. Do not think that your sentence will be worse than others that are submitted. Try to convince yourself that your sentence will be better, or, at least just as good as any others sent in. Remember, Tribunites, that the sentences that are understood easiest are given preference in the awarding of prizes. Some of the sentences are very good, but they have to be read two or three times before the meaning is clear. Don't write less than ten words. Prize Winning Sentences Many good sentences were sent in for the last double letter sentence contest. If your sentence is here, cut it out and bring to the Tribune office, and receive your theatre ticket. These tickets are not good at the Dunbar Theatre on Saturday or Sunday. Ask for Mr. Frazier.

Don't Say Nigger AN INTERESTING STORY A story by Alfred Segal in the Cincinnati Post is one of a little girl whose skin is such as ours. It is worth reading, so we let Mr. Segal tell it in his own words: "Catherine Washington was born out of luck. First of all, she was born with a dark skin which is regarded as an unhappy inheritance in a world that thinks merit is skin-deep. "Catherine Washington has been taught that in heaven all things will come out right and all will wear white wings, and the judging angels will not know the souls of black people from white ones. "In the second place, she was born a cripple...." "...affliction is her inheritance and hundreds of years ago she learned, to accept humbly all her destinies." "She was born poor. To be born poor is not in itself bad luck when the skin is white; then there is hope for poverty and no limit to the height of grandeur to which poverty may rise by its own impulses. But the poverty of the dark skin is generally a poverty without much hope, and the ill of today must be also tomorrow, and in the children's tomorrows and the grandchildren's. Long ago Catherine Washington's people became resigned to hopelessness in existence. "Thus it has always been in all their generations; but the other day Luck climbed the stairway to the third floor of the tenement house at 614 W. Fourth street, groping in the gloom for the door of Catherine Washington. It knocked. "Catherine Washington?" "I am Catherine Washington." "I have a check for $100 for you. You won the prize." "Catherine Washington saw the refulgent glory of success; she stood speechless in the presence of it; her underprivileged generations gazed, incredulous, through her eyes. "It seems that Catherine Washington has faith in Cincinnati. When the Kroger Grocery & Baking Co. offered prizes for the best essays on 'Why I Believe in Cincinnati,' she hastened to our testimony of her faith. She wrote: "I believe in Cincinnati because its citizens have so many opportunities." She wrote many other things in her essay. She wrote, "All these make us feel the renewed faith which we have in our city." "Eleven Thousand essays were submitted in the contest. When all these had been read, it was seen that Catherine Washington, age 16, pupil in the Morgan School, led all others in the junior group and had won first prize of $100 in that group. "The disinherited child had sung best the glory and the beauty and the might and the riches of the city of which she may share only crumbs." "Did I really win? she managed to say at length to Charles Shoenberger, advertising manager of Kroger's, who brought her the news. 'I? . . . I? . . .' "She spoke with the unbelieving voice of generations that had known only defeat. "The $100 check was placed in the bank for her after which Randall J. Condon, superintendent of schools, made a formal presentation to her of the bank book." For HEALTH'S Sale P.D.

The opening prelude I set the atmosphere for the occasion and the musical picture "II.

Barrington Guy, baritone, in the role of Christ, here lifted up his voice, "In bitter anguish prays: Father! the last LOANS - SALES - RENTS dread hour of shame and death is near" and so forth and on until the mob in dramatic outburst cries out.

Workmen's Compensation Insurance A law entitled, "An Act to provide compensation for disability or death resulting from injury to employees in certain employments in the District of Columbia, and for other purposes," was approved May 17, 1928. It applies to injuries suffered by employees on and after July 1, 1928. FIRST — You MUST provide Compensation Insurance for all of your employees on or before July 1, 1928. SECOND — Failure to do so may mean the payment of $1,000.00 fine, imprisonment — or both.

Philip Randolph, general organizer of the Brother- hood of Sleeping Car Porters, the Fidelity and Casualty Company of New York, paid over to the Broth- ezhood a check for $780 to cover t'e money which D. J. Jones, local secretary-treasurer of the Brother- hood in Oakland, California, ab- seonded with. This is a concrete refutation of the unfair and vicious rumors and tales spread by Pullman propa- ganda to the effect that the Broth. erhood is squandering the porters’ money and that those who handle the money are not bonded, It is the policy of the Brother- hood, according to Randolph, to have all of the officers who handle funds bonded by the Fidelity and Casualty Bonding Company, Ran- dalph continued that, “I myself am bonded although I handle no funds.” The Brotherhood’s ac- counts are also handled by Stuart Chase, a certified public accountant of the Labor Bureau, Inc., 2 west 43rd street. “All of ‘the money of the Brotherhood,” says Randolph, “are scrupulously handled.” Alice Dunbar Nelson To Deliver Annual Address BORDENTOWN, N.J., June 1— Mrs. Alice Dunbar-Neison, former- ly the wife of Paul Lawrence Dun- Hawaiian System of Scalp and Hair Culture Registered U.S. Patent Office ‘The public's constantly growing preference for Hawaiian Treat- ments makes the agency of this great system a choice and profit- able business venture for sl! wom- en who have courage, vision and will-power, WRITE for Further Information.

I believe every one who is true to himself, when he goes to church, goes to hear a message from God, and it is the duty of the preacher to deliver a message of "Thus saith the Lord." Thus saith the Lord unto the Angel of the church at Ephesus: "I know thy works, and thy labor, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil, and hath borne, and hath patience, and for my name's sake hast labored and hast not fainted. "Nevertheless, I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love." We are engaged in talking about Ephesus, the great metropolis of Asia, with her shrines, and goddess Diana and how the message was sent to her because of her coolness and her idol worship, but suppose we would look around in the Capital of the great nation, and its vicinity with its many churches and denominations, think of the vanity, the frivolity, the hypocrisy, and then think of Christ's message to the Church of Epheus. Oh, my friends, here is Ephesus right here! there are the goddesses right here, there are the temples of idols right here, but the spirit is saying to you, "I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left the first love." I once heard a story of a woman and her husband that went as follows: As she came in she called him by name saying, "You don't love me any more, you are not affectionate, your kisses are cold, they chill me. You have left your first love." Thus answered the husband and said, "What more can I do? I have given you the most costly diamonds, rubies, silks, satins, oriental rugs, automobiles, and servants at your command; what more can I do?" Then arose the wife in an indignant manner, and said, "What care I for your diamonds, pearls, rubies, silks, satins, your oriental rugs, automobiles and servants; what care I for all those things which you mentioned? I care nothing. I would rather go back to rags and have your love." Oh, Church of Christ, Jesus is saying to you just now, what care I for your society, for a church that caters to the whims and caprices of the noble, for a church with that aristocratic spirit, and is controlled by a group of hypocrites, I care nothing. I want a church that stands for love! What Jesus wants is not services, but service. He asks for your love, not your position, not merely your intellect, not merely your social standing; but your love in a life of service. Every life must stand its tests. Our Savior when questioning Peter, asked, "Peter, lovest thou me?" Peter answered, "Lord, thou knowest I love Thee." Jesus appointed him to render service, by saying, "feed my lams, feed my sheep, feed my flock." It is love that prompts one to devotion, anl devotion prompts one to render ser- will speak. Musical numbers will be rendered by the church quartett. TO GIVE WOMEN TESTIMONIAL Friday evening, June 15, at 8 o'clock, a testimonial will be given in honor of Miss Phoebe Miles and Mrs. Mattie Boston, at the People's Congregational Church.

B. FISHER, pastor of Isreal Baptist Church, Northeast Washington, D.C. vice. One of the greatest problems to be adjusted in our churches is the social problem. Ahl but, if we would only think of ourselves as we are, and be honest to our true selves, it would be the means, and the only means by which this problem will be solved, The worse man you know, knows more truths than our best men practice. It is the social problem that is causing so many upheavals and hatreds, but, be it known friends, that hatred will die out of the hearts of the nations, when it dies in the hearts of the individuals. Then, and only then, will Christ be enthroned. Jesus wants a church that stands for God, and God is love. PEOPLE'S CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH Rev. A. F.

SPEAKS. HERE. Speaking Monday afternoon before the Baptist Ministers' Conference of Greater Washington, Charles Satchell Morris, Jr., stressed the fact that scandal among clergymen is comparatively rare. That ministers generally held in such high esteem is in a large measure responsible for the featuring of cases in which they are involved. Morris maintained at the same time that preachers themselves must raise their standards morally, intellectually and spiritually. The primary function of the minister he affirmed is not to be a political leader although he may on occasion function in this capacity, nor is it his primary mission to be a business champion although he may stimulate business, but his fundamental mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus and to point out the lowly Nazarese as the central figure of human history. Mr. Morris took a rap at those who have been severely criticizing in an adverse way the erection of magnificent churches by Negroes. People who put their money into the erection and purchase of great churches he asserted probably would put it into nothing else. These beautiful temples at least are an evidence that the black man is putting God first in his scheme of thinking. Any race that gives God first place the psychology of thinking cannot fail. Mr. Morris who is the son of Dr. Charles Satchell Morris, Sr., pastor of the Fifth Street Baptist Church of Richmond, Virginia, was accorded a spontaneous ovation by the conference on his second appearance before them within a year. He is a graduate of the University of Chicago, a master of arts from Columbia University where he is studying for the Ph.D. He left for Virginia following his address here but will return to speak at the Mt. Jezreal Baptist Church next Sunday afternoon. He will also appear at the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church on Friday evening, June 29. HAMPTON MINISTERS CONFERENCE TO MEET HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va.

Central, I asked for Potomac 4-7-5-1—yes 1, o-n-e.! Blankey bowl! What! Oh, excuse me, madam, I thought that was Central. Ma'm, yes, I called your number. Is Fats, I mean John, there I'd like to speak to him some. Hello Heavy, hewdaaya say? No? Whatsamatter, too hot for you? Yeah? Well it won't be for long. You know how this summer weather is. One day makes you feel like you want to dive in a tub of ice water with a pitcher of lemonade in the right paw, a quart of ice cream in the left and half dozen electric fans doing their drendest, and the next day you're sniffing Vick's while the hot water in which you have your feet makes you belch the taste of castor-oil every few minutes. So you gotta be careful. But say, Heavy Ole Thing (capital O), enough for the weather today. I called to tell you something funny. You know Mac, yeah Mac the dude who works over at the office with me. Yeah, well. I made an engagement with him about a month ago, and he kept it Wednesday. Uhhu, we agreed Tuesday to set the alarms for six o'clock Wednesday a.m., and show up on the Lincoln Memorial links. We did except for the showing up. When we got there the whistle was blowing seven. Anyhow, we decided to "push 'em awhile." We started off and honest-to-goodness, Jawn, Mac, all dressed up in knickers and sport sweater and all that goeswithit you know, the crazy legs, punished that poor little ball something awful. Why, Heavy, a couple of times I thought the clever scribe was sparring and using the ball as a partner, the clubs as gloves. He hit it here, he smashed it there—on the top of the head, to the left or to the right, and sometimes on its feet (underneath). But at any rate he got around. Yeah, man, after being "sliced," "hooked," "dubbed," "heeled," and "topped" the poor little pellet snugged closely in a patch of grass out-of-bounds in the hope that it was safe but lo and behold Mac discovered its hiding place. The little ball then resigned itself to its fate. Huh? What's it all about? Well, you see, son, I forgot you're rather thick, both physically and mentally, so you'll have to excuse me. Well here goes. To "slice" a ball means to hit it so that it will take a curve to the right instead of going straight. A ball which is "sliced" develops a deep winding inshoot which curves from a true line of flight. A "hook" on the other hand is the ball which curves to the left. The "slice" and "hook" are characteristics of the "duffer" or sun golfer's game. Then comes the "dubbed," the "topped" and the "heeled" shot. The first is a complete messup of the shot. When the player swings with all the "wim, wigor and vitality" of youth (whether he has it or not), and finds that his ball for some reason or other has travelled little less than 10 yards or more, he says his shot was "dubbed." One "heels" a shot when he strikes the ball too near the handle of the club and can get little or no distance or direction, while the "topped" shot is one which brings the club down directly on top of the ball, and sometimes into it. All of these shots are considered misses except by professional players who in some instances employ them to advantage to play around or under an obstacle directly in front of them. Well, Heavy, Mac I might say, is by no means a professional and even if he could boast as much there'd have been no excuse for the amount of punishment he gave that lil ball Wednesday. Huh? Yeah, I was so—Owoooo! I gotta go, a bee's got caught in the mouthpiece of my phone here. The fast Piedmont A.C., last year's Myrtle Prep entry in the Tribune League, handed the Anacostia Hillsdales a neat 18-9 lacing, last Sunday. MYRTLES SCORE WITH EASE OVER WASH. GIANTS Tootie Barber and his hard hitting Myrtle A. C. baseballers breezed to a 14-4 victory over Hayes Jones' Washington Giants in their Union League clash; at Twenty-sixth and Bennings road, northeast, Sunday. While Coates and Taylor were Giants to an even half dozen scat-collaborating to hold the chesty tered bingles, their teammates were piling up 15 hits for 14 runs and an easy win. Chesty Johnson's 4 hits in 5 times at bat led the efforts of the Myrtle batters. Barber has gotten together a most formidable combination to represent his northeast aggregation. With Eddie Barner, Buck Carroll and "Old Man" Ben Fells added to a line-up which includes the hard hitting "Cat" Taylor, Walley King and the ever dangerous Dennie Greene, the Myrtles should prove quite a tough nut for any of the local teams to crack.

Giants. 002x 200 4 HUNTSVILLE TEAM WILL BE DANGEROUS FOE Cleney Lewis, captain of the Huntsville Giants, third placers in the 1927 Tribune Baseball League race, has come forward, following the appearance of articles on various other teams and suggests that the Giants are to be contended with before the flag for the 1928 season floats over any other team as the champion. "The Huntsville Giants," Cap Cleney asserts is "ready and rarin.'" Dissension, the Marylanders' boss points out, caused a good team in 1927 to bow before its rivals. Good spirit and plenty of fight, however, Mr. Lewis declares, will cause a better team to come through with flying colors. Though the Hunts lost a consistent and dangerous batsman in Burgess, their 1927 first sucker, the presence of the Hamilton brothers, Eddie McCreig and Jeremiah Maynard in their batting order will always be a sore spot to opposing pitchers. The Huntsville roster is as follows: Cleney Lewis, captain; Arthur Nixon, Wesley Thomas, George Hamilton, Ambrose Hamilton, Jeremiah Maynard, Thomas Wallace, Leroy Harrod, Charles Simms, Thomas Smarts, Richard Ford, Edward McCreig, Arthur Green, Nicholas Hamilton, Charles Hamilton, Leo Hamilton, Russell Hamilton, Walter Hawkins, James Randolph and Robert Hawkins.

HENDERSON JOINS HILLSDALE TEAMSTERS Slim Henderson, star all-round athlete of Virginia Seminary, has returned home following the close of his school, May 30. Henderson, who is an exceptional batter and fielder, but slow of foot, has joined the Hillsdale nine of the Tribune League as first baseman... SAMUEL H. LACY, Sports Editor Victory Gives Tech Seventh Straight Diamond Title Victory Gives Tech Seventh Straight Diamond Title For the seventh consecutive year the Armstrong High School Baseball team, last Saturday, won the interscholastic diamond title by defeating the nine representing the Dunbar High School. The score was 12-5. Besides giving the Orange and Blue school its seventh straight baseball championship, the victory added a third title to Armstrong athletic teams for the current year. Tech had already won the football and basketball laurels. Previously the deciding game had been played, on May 23, at the Howard University Stadium, and Armstrong had won, but this game was declared "no contest" by Edwin B. Henderson, director of physical education, when it was plainly evident that the official who umpired the game was incapable. Mr. Henderson ordered the game played over Saturday. Perry, Tech centerfielder, led the participants at bat with 4 hits while Vellin his teammate, and Rush, Dunbar hurler, were engaged in a pitcher's duel. The Armstrong slabman gained the verdict mainly because his mates took advantage of Dunbar errors and Rush's wildness.** Anderson.ib 4 0 0 2 Armstrong ab h g Glimore.as 4 0 0 2 Dabney.lf. 2 2 1 Critchlowe.cf 4 0 0 2 Lynn.2b.1b 2 2 1 Brown.cf 4 0 0 2 Johnson.as 3 2 1 Abbey.cf 4 0 0 2 Ashley.cf 3 2 1 Daniels.lf. 3 2 1 Perry.cf. 4 1 4 Barnes.rf. 3 1 1 Vollin.lf. 3 0 1 Riley.3b. 3 0 1 Jones.lb. 2 0 0 Rush.b 3 1 0 Queen.b 2 0 0 Totals. 32 5 8 Totals. 28 12 9 Armstrong. 532 02 -13 Dunbar. 532 02 -13 Plays—Lynn to Johnson to Jones; Lynn unassisted.

Hillsdale Error Gives Anacostia Verdict ANACOESTIA, D. C.—A most costly error, stealing its way into their defense in the last half of the ninth inning, resulted in the defeat of the Hillsdale A. C., at the hands of the Anacostia Athletics here, last Sunday before a crowd of nearly 1500 spectators who were thrilled from start to finish of the 6-5 battle. The game, one of the most exciting and hotly contested affairs played on the local diamond to date, was won in the final frame when with the score 5-4 against Anacostia and two men out, "Baby Doll" Garrison, east end star outfielder, doubled. Ball then walked and both advanced on a wild pitch. In an attempt to nail Garrison at third, Bartowe Black, stellar mittman of the Hillsdale clan, overthrew the base and allowed both runners to score. "Stringbean" Lynn, ex-Armstrong High School ace, on the mound for the Hillsdales, worked in midseason form. The Anacostia lads employed 3 hurlers.

Juniors under the leadership of "Pop" McKenzie, former president of the senior club under that name, added another link in their long chain of wins by defeating the fast Alexandria Lafayettes, 7-4, last Tuesday. Paul Goodloe, of the Anacostians starred at bat, collecting a triple, double and single in 5 trips plateward. Turner, with 4 hits in as many times at bat, was the chief threat of the losers.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY, JUNE 8, 1928 Potomac Giants Beaten By Washington Pirates MONUMENT 8—Cliff Fairfax and his Potomac Giants experi- enced quite a surprise when the scrappy Washington Pirate base- ball team visited the former's home lot last Sunday and handed them a neat 11-8 lacing. The Foggy Bottom boys, minus the services of Bill Karnde, their hard-hitting third sacker, were helpless before the offerings of the Pirate pitchers. While the west end aggregation was able to connect with consistency, their trouble lay in their inability to come through in the pinch. Moten, Potomac starting hurler, was nicked for seven markers in the first two frames, which combined to the four garnered off Leffy Smith was enough to win.

Monarchs Win Over D.C. Special Outfit SIXTH and K STREETS. S.W. —The D. C. Special outfit suc- cumbed to Jimmy Thompson's fast traveling Monarchs, last Sunday afternoon by a score of 11-3.

Do not cross tracks. Turn right along tracks, turn right in gate, keep south to Royal street baseball field. WILLIAMS JOINS HOLE-IN-ONE GLASS WILLIAMS JOINS HOLE-IN-ONE GLASS Jinnie Williams, one of the city's leading amateur golfers, and a member of the Washington Black Sox baseball team, joined the hole in-one-club by sinking his tee shot at the Lincoln Memorial sixth hole, last Sunday morning. The sixth hole is one of the hardest of the nine holes on the course. The liner has more natural hazards than any other fairway. The view of the green from the tee is obstructed by a large tree. Besides being a blind hole (one out of the driver's sight) the rolling green (making putting difficult) is located alongside a massive boulder lodged in the ground just barely right of a straight line. Williams' ball left the tee on a dead line over the center of the tree top. Upon walking down the fairway approaching the green, the player and his partner Lawrence "Scrappy" Coleman failed to find the pellet. Williams started across the green with the belief that his ball must have rolled over it, when on passing the cup found that his shot had trickled down alongside the pin into the hole. Northern Stars Easy For, Arlington Nine MONUMENT 6—Amassing a total of 24 bits, the strong Arlington Athletics walked off with an easy victory over the Northern Stars, here last Sunday.

SUBURBAN GARDENS AMUSEMENT PARK --- ```markdown ``` GATE, 10c Departmental League Outlook By Wm. C. Trayham Government Printing Office took both the Treasury and Navy Yard tosses in camp during the week's play, Treasury offering stiff resistance over half the route only to falter in the stretch. Hughes and Moten were the opposing pitchers, the former allowing five hits, the latter 7, G.P.O. winning, 7 to 1. Navy Yard, after driving Neal to the showers in the first inning, had their guns spiked by Beverly, who was doing a good job until injured. Bland holding the gunners the rest of the way, the entire crew of pitchers were used by Navy in emerging on the short end of a 17 to 7 score. R. Brown, Parker, Pleasant and Hawkins saw duty on the mound. Agriculture won the rubber game from Veterans Buneau, 10 to 1, led by their new pitcher, Gillard, and taking advantage of the Vet's five misuses. Braggs again the victim of miserable support, Morris by some daring base running averted a shut out. With victory within its grasp, Veterans Buneau lost to Treasury when their strategy failed, with the tying run on third, Jefferson was purposely passed for Harris, who proceeded to prove he was no weakling by banging the first offering for a homer, Treasury winning 9 to 8. The batting crown again changed heads going to Wooden, Navy Yard with a mark of 545; next in line are Craig, G.P.O., 500; Lee, Treasury, 500; Fauntroy, G.P.O., 491; Grant, Aggies, 467; W. Briscoe, Vet. Buneau, 428. Fauntroy, of G.P.O., is pressing the leader, P. Brown, Navy Yard, for base stealing honors. P. Brown, Fauntroy, 7; Brown, Treasury, 5; Morris, Vet. Bureau, 4; Moten, Aggies, 3. Rollins, of Navy, has joined the home run squad, gathering two in as many games; Briscoe, Vet. Bureau, still leads with 4; Bland, G.P.O., 3. Pleasant, of Navy Yard, and Hughes, G.P.O., divide pitching honors with two wins each. Beverly, G.P.O., starring in the "I'll save you" role also appearing in the most games, 4. Tid-Bits The slogan of the G.P.O. seems to be "We do not choose to lose a game." Beverly had a tough job convincing his friends it was a ball that hit him and came back with the famous alibi, "You should see the other fellow."

Howard Cab LOWEST RATES Potomac 142 Superior Safe Service DRIVERS: OWNERS lying T SEVEN PRESIDENT JOHNSON CHIDES STUDENTS (Continued from page 1) gested that they get it from religion. "Religion," he said, "is the only thing that can give morale." Dr. Johnson challenged the modernism of the college students of today. He proclaimed his beliefs in fundamentalism. "It is a good thing to remember," he said, "that the human race used the word 'god' before any bibles were ever made. The Bible did not produce religion Religion produced the Bible. The Bible is not the source of faith but the product of faith." Old Time Religion He offered "the old-time religion" as a cure for broken morale and as a panacea for present day evil 14. $y = 2 - x^2$ He admonished the graduates to "be careful how you walk among the humble." He emphasized the obligation to treat every woman with deference lest she be the mother of a Booker T. Washington or an Abraham Lincoln. Dr. Johnson made a weiled reference to present student troubles at Howard University involving charges of familiarity on the part of male professors with girl students. These charges were first made in the "Hilltop," a student publication. Dr. Johnson appointed a censorship committee for the "Hilltop" but the students preferred to cease publication for the remainder of the year. In his sermon, Dr. Johnson said, "You find in every institution that the students have a terrible time with their college paper, but they can run the university" according to their delusions. In concluding he urged the graduates to "bend down to the tasks which you are prepared to do, wherever they may find themselves." The Processional Preceding the services there was a processional. In it were administrative officers, members of the faculty and students, all sombre in academic robes. Invocation was offered by the Rev. Walter H. Brooks, pastor of the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church. The university choir sang an anthem, "Praise Ye the Lord" (Randegger). Scripture reading and prayer were by the Rev. David Butler Pratt, dean of the school of religion. The gymnasium was filled to overflowing. Every seat was taken. Crowds stood in every available space. SCHOOLS TO OBSERVE FLAG DAY.

BROADWAY THEATRE "The Street of Forgotten Women" will be shown at the Broadway Theatre all of next week. It is said to be one of the most sensational pictures ever brought to Washington. It shows a cross section of the underworld such as is familiar to the "habitues" only. Owing to the intimacy of the scenes the production will be shown to separate audiences only, while children under 16 will be barred at all times. "The Street of Forgotten Women" is a pictureurization of the true story of Grace Fleming and it is true to the story; it tells of a father who is bent to make money regardless of a daughter who is stage struck and falls in the toils of an unscrupulous "theatrical agent," of her falling in a house of shame the "Madame" of which was a tenant of her own father; of her fighting for her honor against odds and her ultimate rescue with a happy ending. This is the first showing of "The Street of Forgotten Women" anywhere in Washington, and will be shown only at the Broadway Theatre on Sunday and Monday, to men only, while Tuesday and Wednesday will be for ladies only and unless there is a great demand for change of schedule, the balance of the week will be for ladies only in the matinee while men only will be admitted at night.

JUDGE RAPS AT COPS FOR ENTERING HOMES WITHOUT WARRANT The practice of entering homes or places of residence without right or warrant by local policemen, received quite a slap in the face, when Judge Gus A. Schuldt dismissed Helen Ford, 1904 Second street, southwest, arrested on a statutory offense, last Monday morning. The arrest was made by Policeman R. T. Fraser, of the Sixth Precinct. The woman was arrested at 10 o'clock, Saturday night when the officer entered 333 Missouri avenue southwest, walked to the second floor, and finding Miss Ford in the same room with Delmar Bozell, a white marine, arrested Judge Schuldt, upon hearing the report of Officer Fraser, immediately asked, "Did you have a warrant to justify your entering the premises?" The policeman replied in the negative. Judge Schuldt then asked if he had been admitted by any one or if he entered the house of his own accord. Fraser said no one had let him in. Judge Schuldt ordered the case dismissed with a reproachful glance in the direction of Fraser. The marine forfeited a collateral of $10. BROADWAY THEATRE 7th, near P, N.W.

Miss Jones and her pupils were presented by the Beaux Arts Club under the auspices of the Cleveland Community Center. The recital revealed Miss Jones' talents. She conceived and arranged all the dances on the program which ranged from character to interpretive dancing including oriental, Egyptian and to toe ballet numbers. She also designed all the costumes and composed the music for two numbers, "Danse Chinoise," by Peggy Lucas, Jane Martin and Harriet Clark, and "The Secret," a group dance by Kellene Lewis, Violet Warfield, Alice Lewis, Jessie Grant, Leona Smith, Helen Sparks, Clayda Williams, Thelma Hamilton, Julia Smith, M. Burke, and Estralda Spratlin. The juvenile numbers were particularly good. Little Miss Nadine Harris in "Her New French Bonnet," an interpretive dance, was very good. Harriet Pelham, Doris Carter, Meta Lewis and Therell Smith in "Trepak Danse," a Russian character study, were excellent. "Four Week Chicks," a character dance, by Camille Cottrell, Peggy Lucas, Jane Martin and Harriet Clark, aged between three and four years, was the "cutest" number on the program. Of the older dancers, Miss Kellene Lewis excelled. Her solo toe ballet dance pleased Others Were Good Alice Lewis, Leona Smith, Thelma Hamilton, Julia Smith, Doris West, Evelyn Edmonston, Marion Hardwick, Carol Harris, Meta Lewis, Therell Smith, Harriet Pelham, Doris Carter, Violet Warfield, Yvonne Warner and Bessie Grant also were good. Miss Jones herself rendered several numbers. The first was a French character dance. She also took part in a duo, "An Angel Triumphs Over Evil," an interpretive number, with Julia Smith. Her "Valse Brilliante," a toe ballet dance, was exceptional, as was also her music visualization, "Scherza Chaminade." The program was in five parts. The first was French character dancing, the second and fourth was interpretive and character dancing, the third was toe ballet dancing, and the fifth was oriental, Egyptian and interpretive dancing. Between parts there were long waits, making the program tiresome. It was after midnight before the finale. Toward the end the audience began to leave. A crowd of 1,400 witnessed the recital.

ARRINGTON WINS LONG-FOUGHT DAMAGE SUIT A jury in Justice Stafford's court rendered a verdict on Tuesday in favor of Benjamin F. Arrington, defendant in a $10,000 damage suit brought by Mrs. Nannie M. Shepherd for alleged injuries received by her in 1922. The case has been before the courts for nearly six years. In 1922 Mrs. Shepherd filed suit against Arrington for $10,000 damages, alleging that she had sustained injuries in falling through the flooring of the back porch of premises 1348 Rittenhouse street, northwest, rented by her from the defendant. This suit was finally dismissed by the court in 1924 for want of prosecution. In August, 1925, Mrs. Shepherd again brought suit, judgment being awarded her by default in March, 1928, when Mr. Arrington's lawyer, being out of the city, failed to appear in court. A motion to vacate the judgment was granted by the court and the case went to trial on its merits last Monday afternoon. The trial continued through Tuesday, when the jury, after an hour's deliberation, brought in a verdict in favor of Arrington. Attornies J. Franklin Wilson and Royal A. Hughes represented Mrs. Shepherd, while Attornies William E. Richardson and George W. Offutt appeared for Mr. Arrington. Mr. Arrington has been prominent in U street business circles for over fifteen years is a prominent Mason, and is chairman of the auditing committee of 19th Street Baptist Church of which he is a member.

RUMOR 4 PROFESSORS TO LEAVE HOWARD RUMOR 4 PROFESSORS TO LEAVE HOWARD (Continued from page 1) President Johnson, Monday night and appealed to him in behalf of the four professors who it is alleged are slated to go. Dr. Johnson, it is claimed, was dogmatic in his interview. Unconfirmed rumors have it that the following professors have been or are to sever their relation with the university at the end of this school year: Dr. Lorenzo Dow Turner, professor of English; Moses Franklin Peters, an instructor in English; William Henry Jones, professor of sociology, and Albert Sydney Beckham, assistant professor in psychology. Whether there are any specific charges against these men in connection with the charges brought by the students, could not be learned from an authoritative source. However, it is claimed that differences between faculty members is real reason for the dismissals of Professor Turner and Professor Peters. A local high school principal is also said to have been involved in the plan to get rid of Professor Turner. Meanwhile, the students claim that professors whose conduct has been questionable, are continued in their positions with a clean bill of health. Dr. Mordecai W.

CAR CLEANERS WANT TO ORGANIZE UNION NEW YORK CITY.--While the Pullman Company has been making preparations to use the car cleaners to break the impending strike of Pullman porters, by the use of its yard employees, these very same car cleaners have been planning conferences to secure the services of A. Philip Randolph, general organizer, to organize them into a union. There is wide-spread sentiment throughout the various districts among the car cleaners for an organization. They have many grievances that are serious and grave that cannot be corrected through the medium of the bankrupt employee representation plan. This is perhaps the most serious blow to the efforts of the company to break the strike of the porters.

YOUTH TO SERVE 60 DAYS FOR STEALING SUIT Three out-of-town youths, ranging from 18 to 22 years of age were arraigned before Police Judge Schultz in U. S. Branch of Police Court, Tuesday week, charged with larceny. One of them plead guilty and in his testimony refused to implicate his two companions. He simply asked the mercy of the court. James Thomas, a caddy at the Bannockburn Country Club, and a native of Atlanta, Ga., confessed to have stolen a suit from the tailor shop of J. R. Douglass (white) last week. This suit was one of a pressing job and was hanging on the rack when the three boys entered. Police believed at first that Henry Hackett and Charles Crable, Thomas' companions, were the decoys in the boy's theft. Thomas, however, cleared them when he declared that Crable and Hackett had entered the shop with the honest intention of purchasing suits of clothes for themselves. They did not know, he testified, that when he left the place that he had taken a suit out with him. Thomas was sentenced to serve sixty days. Both Crable and Hackett came here from Brownsville, Pa., their home town. Crable is employed as general utility man at the Bannockburn Club, while Hackett is a caddy at the same place. They met Thomas, they said, about a year ago when he came, with his parents, to Pennsylvania. MAN HELD ON $3,000 BOND IN SHOOTING Suree Hammett, 218 Selden Court, southwest, was ordered held under $3,000 bond when arraigned in Police Court, Monday, on a charge of assault with dangerous weapon. Hammett is alleged to have shot Sarah Smith, of 227 Selden Court, in the hand at about 7 o'clock last Saturday week. Louise Carter, 1301 Wiley Court, northeast, and Walter Pryor, 220 Selden Court, eye-witnesses to the shooting testified that Hammett, following an argument between his wife and Miss Smith drew a gun and fired at the latter, the bullet piercing her hand. When Miss Carter and Pryor intervened, the witnesses declared, Hammett turned the gun in their direction. He shot at Miss Carter, but the bullet went wild. When he pulled the trigger at Pryor the cartridge failed to fire. Police of the Fourth Precinct, arriving on the scene as Hammett attempted to shoot Pryor, arrested Hammett.

Shaky Feeling Severe Headaches Miss Theresa M. Denning, 807 Nelson St., Knoxville, Tenn. (picture above) says: "I suffered quite a bit with weakness, and at times would have severe head- aches and would have to go to bed. My limbs seemed to draw, and I felt so weak and shaky. This was just before I graduated, and I didn't want to lose any time in school. I was listless and tired all the time. "Cardui was recommended. After the first bottle I felt better, but I wasn't willing to quit then. I took another and there was a great difference in my feeling. I do not suffer now with headache—in fact, I feel well."

RANDOLPH SEEKS AN EMERGENCY BOARD NEW YORK, June 2.—According to the latest news from the headquarters of the porters' union, A. Philip Randolph, general organizer, and Henry T. Hunt, counsel, will appear before the U.S. Mediation Board in the interest of securing the establishment of the Emergency Board. The Emergency Board is only established when the Mediation Board considers that a condition is fraught with danger and therefore recommends to the President of the Untied States the establishment of said Board. The final count of the strike ballots of Pullman porters show 6,013 affirmative votes in favor of the strike. In the opinion of the officials of the Brotherhood and its counsel, there is no way for the Board to avoid recommending the establishment of the Emergency Board. According to experienced labor men, when sufficient employees in the transportation industry register their desire for a walk-out, unless their demands are conceded, this, in the meaning of the Railway Labor Act constitutes a threat of interruption of interstate commerce sufficient to justify the intervention of President Coolidge, with a view to maintaining peace in the industry. If the Mediation Board does not recommend the establishment of the Emergency Board, the Brotherhood will call a strike. NASHVILLE, Tenn.—Stepping out into a new path of church and Sunday School development, the National Baptist Publishing Board, located in this city, has just issued a series of helps on the Inter-national Sunday school lessons.

Y.W.C.A. NOTES Girl Reserve Notes The Girl Reserve secretary and a group of Girl Reserves took bread, sugar, candy and fruit to 125 women at the Home for the Aged last Saturday. A program of songs was given by the girls. Clubs will hold regular meetings the week of June 11 closing June 15 with a dance festival. Beginning the week of June 18 all girls are invited to come to the "Y" for recreation in the gym and on the lawn. The library offers some splendid books for leisure time. All are invited to use the reading room. Mrs. Robert McGuire, chairman of the camp committee, finds that the camp is very much in need of a first class refrigerator of 150 pounds capacity. As so many are giving up refrigerators and ice boxes these days or the frigidaires, the members of the committee thought some one in the city might like to make this contribution to the camp. Vacations Miss Carolyn C. Armistead will leave Friday, June 8 for Chicago, where she will spend her vacation with parents and friends. Her sister Annie Mae Armistead, of New York City, who is visiting Washington, will accompany her. HEARINGS TO START ON SALE-OF OFFICES Senator Smith W. Brookhart, Republican, of Iowa, chairman of the subcommittee appointed to in- vestigate the alleged sale of Federal patronage, announced last Friday that hearings will probably start about June 15. At the first meeting, Senator Brookhart stated, such witnesses as Senators William J. Harris and Walter F. George, Democrats, of To beautify hair naturally! Georgia, who first asked for the investigation, will be heard. This meeting will probably be held in Atlanta. Benjamin Jefferson Davis, Georgia Republican national committeeman, will be subpenaed to testify before the investigating committee. Davis Denies Charge Senators Harris and George charge that postmasters in their state have been forced to contribute to the Republican party in Georgia in order to retain their offices. Mr. Davis denies this charge. The investigation was demanded in the Senate after a Georgia postmaster shot and killed a post office clerk and then committed suicide. The Georgia Senators attributed his act to forced contributions to the Republican state organization. Mr. Davis said that the postmaster simply preferred death to imprisonment for embezzlement of Government funds. After the investigation of alleged patronage abuses in Georgia, the committee will make an inquiry into the handling of patronage in Tennessee, Senator Brookhart said. South Carolina will follow. Senator Brookhart promises to "get to the root of this evil if there is an evil."

Carter insisted on talking, and was locked up. After he was returned to the lockup, Judge Schuldt ordered the case continued to Friday.
