Students File Protest PETITION SENT PRESIDENT JOHNSON IN BEHALF OF OUSTED PROFESSORS; UNIVERSITY HEAD CONTINUES SILENT So much has been said recently—and loudly said—concerning the "protection of womanhood" at Howard University, that the writer feels that the time has arrived when the public should know the whole truth of the matter. By a "blanket" decision of the administration, four professors have been dismissed from the faculty. The affair has received wide publicity. But the public has been permitted to hear only one side of the question. As a Howard student in the midst of the affair and familiar with the details of it, the writer feels that in justice to the university and to the professors involved she should present to the public the other side of the question and give them opportunity to form an unbiased opinion concerning it. The causes, motives, and results of this case, which have been so daringly put before the public, are far-reaching and involve more than the public dreams of.

By the administration's "blanket" dismissal of four professors without proof of their guilt, the members of the faculty are left wholly unprotected against the intrigues of unscrupulous persons. It means that any irresponsible girl—and there is, unfortunately, no dearth of such girls at Howard University—may, for motives actuated either by revenge on her own part or by the urgings of corrupt officials, charge an inno- Continued on page 2 WISE TELLS H.U.

Wise of the Free Synagogue of New York delivered the commencement address at the fifty-ninth annual commencement exercises of Howard University held in a natural open-air amphitheatre on the campus last Friday afternoon. Degrees were conferred upon 266 students, 60 from the college of liberal arts, 61 from the college of education, 3 from the school of music, 2 from the college of applied science, 2 from the department of electrical engineering, 24 from the school of religion, 89 from the school of medicine, 16 from the school of law, and 3 from the graduate school.

The army commissions were awarded by Brig. Gen. Frank Palmer, assistant chief of staff, U.S.A. An academic procession from the Carnegie Library building to the amphitheatre began the commencement exercises. In it were the administrative officers, trustees, alumni, faculties and graduates. Dr. Wise, the Rev. Jason Noble Pierce, pastor of the First Congregational Church, and Brig. Gen. Palmer were also in the line of march. Urged to Keep Faith Reminding the graduates that the fate of their race lies in their keeping. Dr. Wise urged them to keep faith and "add nobleness to the life and store of your people." "Men and women," he said, "in a few moments you are to be graduated by Howard University. That means you are a step forward, you are to move forward into life, either to go into other schools of learning or into those callings for which you have fitted yourselves with the help of this most admirable institution. You are about to move forward." Washington Tribune NO REASON GIVEN IN LETTER The following is a copy of the letter received by the four dismissed professors at Howard University, last Friday. (Detection of names made by the editor.) "At the Annual Meeting of the Board of Trustees of Howard University, held June 5, 1928, I was directed to officially transmit to you the following unanimous action of the Board: "VOTED: Upon the recommendation of the President of the University, and after due consideration, that it is the judgment of the Board of Trustees that the interests of the University require the removal of (name of dismissed professor). "VOTED, further, and in pursuance of Section 7, of the Act of Incorporation of Howard University, that (name of dismissed professor) be, and he hereby is, removed as Professor of (name of department or subject), Howard University, same to be effective June 30, 1928. Very truly yours, (Signed) Emmett J. Scott, Secretary-Treasurer" HOWARD PREXY REMAINS SILENT AS SPHINX HOWARD PREXY REMAINS SILENT AS SPHINX In a petition which was presented to Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president of Howard University, last Friday, 139 students informed him that "the charges advanced against the four of our professors who have been dismissed are false and exaggerated." Despite the fact that four professors have been dismissed from the university faculty, apparently without the charges being made known, President Johnson, notwithstanding his promises last week, continued his sphinx-like silence. No statement has been issued from his office touching any phase of the situation. Dr. Johnson even refuses to release any information about what has been done, if anything, as to giving Coach Louis Watson a one, two, or three-year contract. He also continues to refuse to affirm the resignation of several members of the faculty and the retiring of several others Numerous Rumors Afloat While Dr. Johnson maintains his strange silence, rumors of all kinds are afoot. One rumor has it that Dr. Johnson has been made the tool of certain designing members of the faculty who have been hostile to those faculty members who have been dismissed. Others claim that the professors who are really guilty have been given a clean bill of health by the president and that men who are innocent have been slaughtered in order to cover up (Continued on page 2) Sixty-five Girls and Seventy-four Boys Sign Names Sixty-five girls and seventy-four boys signed a petition in behalf of the four professors who were dismissed from Howard University last Friday. The students in a letter accompanying the petition charged that Professor G. David Houston, principal of Armstrong High School is one of the chief persons supporting the dismissals. Mr. Houston is not an alumnus of Howard. The students' letter and petition are herewith reproduced: The Students' Letter "June 8, 1928 "Professor Mordescal W. Johnson "Howard University, "Dear President Johnson: "We, the student body, are of the opinion that the charges advanced against the four of our professors who have been dismissed are false and exaggerated. We know that there are those who would gladly and willingly give false evidence against certain professors because of personal grievances. The receiving of low grades, for instance, has caused many of our students to entertain evil rumors against professors. But we do not consider this sufficiently serious to warrant their dismissal. "We were really shocked to learn that these particular professors were the ones involved. Had certain older professors, whom the entire investigation was ittended to apprehend been thus handled, we should have raised no protest. But we firmly believe that these professors are innocent. "Furthermore, there are certain rumors afloat on the campus to the effect that Dean Slowe and G. David Houston, are the chief persons supporting this unfair project, and that our co-eds are afraid of Dean Slowe and are trying their best to keep on her better side. Many of our girls who have testified have told their boy friends that the charges made were greatly exaggerated and some were entirely false. In view of these facts we are submitting the enclosed petition for your careful consideration." The Students' Petition "Dear Dr. Johnson: Having heard that four of our professors have recently been dropped because of certain damaging charges that have been made against their moral character, and feeling that these (Continued on page 2) BECKHAM LANDS POSITION IN N.Y. PSYCH. CLINIC Professor Albert S. Beckham, of Howard University, has accepted a position in New York City in one of the research clinics, it was learned yesterday. The nature of his work will be chiefly the testing and making mental diagnoses of normal and abnormal children. The psychological laboratory at Howard University was established by Professor Beckham in 1925, and has grown in students and general efficiency until it is now recognized as standard. Along with the development of clinical psychology for the benefit of teachers in the public schools here, Professor Beckham has devoted much of his time to promoting graduate work with his students, and has sent out three Masters of Arts in Psychology during his four years of residence at Howard. He will begin his clinical work with children in New York next autumn. SECONDED HOOVER'S NOMINATION Dr. John R. Hawkins, delegate-at-large from the District of Columbia to the Republican National Convention, who served on the important committee on rules and order of business, and was selected to make a speech seconding the nomination of Herbert Hoover. Dr. John R. Hawkins, Whitefield McKinlay and the Rev. H. Jernagin were in the delegation that left here last Saturday afternoon for Kansas City to attend the Republican national convention. Dr. Hawkins is one of the two delegates from the District of Columbia. The Rev. Jernagin is his alternate. Mr. McKinlay is a former collector of customs of the port of Georgetown, District of Columbia. He was very active in politics during the Roosevelt and Taft administrations. HOOVER REFUSES TO COMMIT SELF ON APPOINTM'TS HOOVER REFUSES TO COMMIT SELF ON APPOINTM'TS Tuskegeeans Attempt to Have Homer Phillips Head Colored Voters The Tuskegee influence is seeking to make itself potent in national politics. The first major move was made Monday. Albion L. Holsey, secretary of Tuskegee Institute and representative of Major Robert Russa Moton, its principal and Claude A. Barnett, director of the Associated Negro Press, put forth Homer G. Phillips, a lawyer, of St. Louis, to head the work among colored voters in the next campaign in the event that Herbert Hoover, Secretary of Commerce, should be the Republican nominee for President. They sought the commitment of Mr. Hoover to this plan. This move failed. Mr. Hoover, it is reported, would not commit himself. The choice of a colored Republican to direct the work among colored voters in the next campaign, they were told, would be left with the nert chairman of the Republican national committee. be left with the next chairman of the national committee will lie with the nominee. Usually he is the pre-convention campaign manager of the nominee. If Mr. Hoover should get the nomination at Kansas City, the choice may be among James W. Good, Dr. Hubert Work and C. Bascom Slemp. Dr. Moton, Mr. Holsey and Mr. Barnett were associated with Mr. Hoover in his relief work among the flood sufferers. They were members of his colored advisory committee. GRAND JURY INDICTS PHILIP MEDLEY Philip Henry Medley was inducted by the District grand jury last Thursday for first degree murder.

Madison Hall, excursion boat, as it docked at the wharf, last Monday night, and placed under arrest three men, one on two charges of assault, and the others on one charge each of the same offense. William Frank Ferguson, 27, of 323 Syphax Court, southwest, the man held for having cut two other excursionists, was arraigned before Police Judge John P. MMcahon, Wednesday morning, and sentenced to 365 days on each charge and $500 fine, in default of which he shall serve 365 additional days. Henry Warren, 40 years old, and Robert Thomas, 22, are being held for Maryland authorities. Ferguson engaged Lester Harris, 25, of 1417 Thirty-sixth street, northwest, and Eugene Ennis, 26, of 1250 Union court, southwest, in an altercation during which the latter two were cut about the arms and body. They were taken to Emergency Hospital in the First Precinct patrol and treated by Dr. G. Gordon for lacerations which proved to be not serious. Jealousy, over attentions being directed toward another, police believe, led to the attack of Warren on Lottie Hall, 1208 Delaware avenue, southwest. She too was treated at Emergency Hospital for cuts about the left leg. Thomas was taken into custody and charged with the shooting of Percy Allen, 5 Freeman Court, southwest. Allen was wounded in the right leg when Thomas in an intoxicated state engaged him in an argument. MAN HURT IN ATTEMPT TO ESCAPE RAID Thomas Thomas, who gave his address as 624 L street, northeast, is at Freedmen's Hospital suffering from a broken leg he sustained when he jumped from a second story of the Chess and Checker Club, 1318 Ninth street, northwest, Monday night. Thomas made the leap in an effort to escape the clutches of the law when members of thvice squad headed by Sergeant O. J. Letterman, raided the place and arrested Isadore Shapiro, white, alleged proprietor, and twenty-four persons, white and colored, on a charge of gaming. Entrance to the club was gained when the policemen climbed a telephone pole and crossed a roof to a window in the rear of the house. OFFICE: 920 U STREET, N.W.

THREE MEN HELD ON ROBBERY CHARGE Police Court Judge John P. McMahon ordered John (Pete) Pierson, William Jackson and Ellis Cross held under $1,500 bond each for the action of the Grand Jury, when they were arraigned together, Monday, on a charge of robbery. Walter Scott, complainant, told the court that Pierson was one of several men whom he "treated" to drinks at a cafe on L street between Sixth and Seventh, on April 17. After the set up he said he missed his billfold containing $18. Each of the men denied any knowledge as to who took the money. Pierson, however, confessed to having shared in the "divy" of the spoils. LAW SENIORS PRESENT TOKEN TO WATERS James C. Waters, secretary of the Howard University School of Law, and known among the students as "The Chair," because of the important subjects in which he instructs them, was presented with a token of esteem by the graduating class of '28. Upon being presented with the silver, engraved pen and pencil set by George (Red) Jefferson, who made a speech of presentation, Attorney Waters declared that it was the first time in his seven years at the school that such an incident had ever occurred, and that it was one of the most touching in his whole career. 一 U STREET, N.W. RISHER A READING CLERK AT K. C. KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 14. John T. Risher, of Washington, D.C., served as one of the reading clerks of the Republican national convention. He was appointed by Lafayette B. Gleason, general secretary of the convention, at the instance of Robert R. Church, delegate from the tenth congressional district of Tennessee. Mr. Risher was the only colored person to serve in this capacity. Four years ago the late Charles A. Cottrill, of Toledo, Ohio, served as one of the reading clerks. SCHOOL BOY IS KILLED, DRIVER IS EXONERATED Jury Returns Verdict of Accidental Death at Inquest A verdict of "accidental death" was returned by a coroner's jury at an inquest into the death of 13-year-old Garland Robinson, a Shaw Junior High School student, who died, last Wednesday at Freedmen's Hospital as the result of injuries he received when struck by an automobile at New York avenue and M street, March 27, last. William T. Caruth (white), secretary to Senator Smoot, living in the Chastleton Apartments, Sixteenth and R streets, northwest, was the driver of the car. According to the testimony, young Robinson and Bernard Reed, 14, a friend and schoolmate were crossing New Jersey avenue at the M street intersection, leaving the school where they had just finished rehearsal for a class play, when the Chevrolet coupe, driven by Caruth struck the two of them. Reed received a slight contusion of the right leg. Taken to Hospital Monroe Ransome, 2009 Flagler place, driving a passing auto, picked Robinson up, placed him in his car and rushed the boy to Freedmen's Hospital where he was admitted and kept. Freedmen's physicians who received the child at the hospital testified that they diagnosed the case as a fracture of the skull and broken leg. An operation at that time, however, the doctors said they believed would endanger the youth's life. They waited. On June 6, the hospital surgeons felt that Robinson had improved enough to permit an operation. Although his condition was regarded as good prior to the operation, the boy suffered a relapse after the operation, and died a few hours later. A letter written by F. L. Naumer, a lawyer, Frisco Building, St. Louis, Mo., who was with Caruth at the time of the accident was admitted as testimony at the inquest. It stated that Caruth did his best to avoid the accident, but the boys evidently became excited and frustrated Caruth's efforts to avoid striking them. The lad is survived by his parents, Asie and Odessa Robinson, a brother, Marvin, and two sisters, Dorothy Robinson and Helen Slades. Funeral services were held Saturday at 1 o'clock from his residence, 1243 Maryland avenue, northeast. DUNBAR P.-T.

Three love letters, alleged to have been written by Cecil to Mrs. Stella Williams were filed as exhibits to the petition of Leonard Williams, 56 P street, northwest, for an absolute divorce from her. The divorce suit was filed in the Disrict Supreme Court last Friday. Cecil is not made a defendant in the divorce proceedings. His love letters are simply made a part of the bill of complaint. Mr. Williams named Charley Johnson as the correspondent in the case. While he and his wife were living together at the P street address, Mr. Williams says, she left home two or three evenings each week telling him that she was going to the theatre and she would not return until midnight.

The board of trustees at their meeting June 5 voted to retire Dr. Edward Arthur Balloch, dean of the school of medicine and professor of the principles and practice of surgery and clinical surgery, but made him acting dean for a year in order to have time to find a suitable doctor to succeed him. The medical faculty proposed the selection of either Dr. Walter A. Bloedorn or Dr. William C. McNeill to succeed Dean Balloch. Meanwhile it is reported that Dr. Bloedorn, who is a commander in the United States Navy and assigned to the United States Naval Hospital, is reported to be seeking retirement from the Navy. Pays $4500 The deanship pays only $4,500. The head of a department receives about $2,000 a year. Dr. Bloedorn is already the head of the department of the practice of medicine. If he can be placed on the retired list of the Navy, it is believed that the deanship of the medical school with his continuance at the head of the department of the practice of medicine will be attractive enough for him to accept. Others who have been mentioned in connection with the deanship of the medical school include Dr. U. G. Bailey and Dr. Julian Lewis, both of Chicago. It is not thought that Dr. Bailey would accept because he has a new private sanitarium in Chicago valued at $65,-000. Dr. Lewis is a lecturer at the University of Chicago. There is a possibility that he might accept because of the honor which would come to him as the dean of the Howard University medical school. Members of the Howard University medical faculty, however, are of the opinion that the turn of events forecasts the selection of Dr. Bloedorn. 14 Typical Athletic Club of the Civilized Gold Coast, West Africa.

McMahon, Tuesday, for an assault on Policeman R. J. Barrett, white, of the Eighth Precinct, when the latter attempted to enter 950 Florida avenue, northwest, where an unlicensed entertainment was in progress, Monday night. Policeman Barrett, McEwen, and Laflin, eighth precinct plain clothes men, were dispatched to the Florida avenue address shortly after 11 o'clock Monday night when several phone calls from neighbors complained of the noise being carried on at the house. Barrett, accordingly to police testimony, entered the house and was accosted by Jones. The man, it was declared, whipped out a knife and stabbed the officer in the left shoulder.

GOLDEN RULE SPELLING CONTEST AT NEW BETHEL BAPTIST CHURCH JUNE 20, 1928 "Help Us Over the Top" Church and Sunday School SCHOOL OF RELIGION TO EXPAND Addressing the Theological Alumni Association of Howard University in annual session at the University on June 8, Dean Pratt, of the School of Religion, outlined the department's adopted plan of expansion and called upon the alumni for their active co-operation. Among plans to be put into immediate effect are those by which a graduate department, separate and distinct from the Theological College, with a collegiate degree as an entrance requirement, will be established; the addition of two new professors to the present faculty; and the establishment of several scholarships at $100 each. These immediate plans call for the raising of approximately $6,000 by the coming October first. The Alumni Association appointed a committee, headed by Rev. Chas. P. Harris, class of '27, to draft plans for the raising of this amount within the specified time. It is sincerely hoped that every alumnus and friend of the School of Religion will actively heed the urgent call which this committee will soon make. Rev. Aquila Sayles was reelected president of the association. SALEM BAPTIST CHURCH interest of the building fund. After filling his pulpit at the Salem Baptist Church on last Sunday morning, Rev. R. D. Grymes, pastor, left for Alexandria, Va., where he preached at night. Rev W. Gibson preached the evening sermon at Salem. The communion service will be held the coming Sunday at 3:30 p.m. On Friday evening, June 22, a "Gipsy Wedding," directed by Mrs. Estelle Bundy, will be given at the church in the WEEKLY SERMON WEEKLY SERMON A SERMON ON MAKING GOOD By Rev. James R. C. Pinn Text: "And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another, one—But he that had received one went and digged in the earth and hid his lord's money,"—Matt. 25:15-18. It is no wonder that the common people heard Jesus gladly. Picture the usual crowd around Jesus as he drives home the lesson of using what you have to the best advantage, even if it be just one talent. The teaching of the parable of the talents was absolutely new to the common people, and was as encouraging and inspiring as it was new. Long had the upper classes gained inspiration from the great thinkers and teachers of their time. Long had they used their wealth to get more wealth. It was considered evil that the common people should be ambitious. It was useless for them even to dream of attempting to improve their conditions. Nothing should or was expected of them but to live and die and be forgotten. Let us attempt to picture the man of the parable with the one talent, as he should have been, at the same time, being mindful of what the poet said. "Of all the words of tongue or pen, The saddest are. 'It might have been.'" His eyes should have been closed to what the other fellow had, and opened to what he himself possessed. The first material step in making good is finding yourself. Understanding what he himself possessed, he should have planned to use it to the best advantage; not fearfully, but with faith and knowledge that he would make good. With faith in God, we can say, as Paul, even though our talent be small, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Plans—plans—we spend our lives in planning, in hoping, in dreaming. Our plans so often are wonderful. We so often have the power to put TO DEDICATE CHURCH The Oak Shade Baptist Church of Catlett, Va., has announced that June 28, throughout July 1, has been set apart for the dedication of its edifice. All-day service, with dinner served on the ground will be held on Sunday, July 1st. Rev. A. Deans, of this city, is pastor. WASHINGTON PASTOR BUILD- Rev. S. Phillips, of this city, is experiencing the unique undertaking of erecting two new church edifices at the same time. He is pastoring the Salem Baptist Church of Marshall, Va., and the Macedonia Baptist Church of Arlington, Va., both of which are in the midst of a building program. The Macedonia Church is nearing completion, while work on the Salem Church was recently begun. ENDS SPRING RALLY The spring rally at the Bethel Baptist Church, Second and V streets, northwest, recently came to a successful close, more than one thousand dollars being realized from the ninety-day drive. The drive was in the interest of a great building campaign being waged by the church. Rev. K. W. Roy, the pastor, has been with this church scarcely more than two years. Rev. Roy left Wednesday to attend the New England Baptist Convention, but will be back in his pulpit Sunday. MINISTER LEAVES HOSPITAL Rev. W. H. Cary, of this city, associate editor of the Mt. Bethel Pilot and pastor of the Zion, Baptist Church of Fredericksburg, Va., who underwent an operation at the Carson Hospital several days ago, is now out of the hospital and back at his home, 1618 Corcoran street Northwest. Rev. Cary is doing splendidly and hopes to be about his duties soon. Rev. H. J. Booker will fill Rev. Cary's pulpit at Fredericksburg the coming Sunday. TO OBSERVE MEN'S DAY Men's Day will be observed at the First Baptist Church of Warrenton, Va., the coming Sunday. Rev. Chas. P. Harris, the pastor, will preach at the morning worship hour, using as his subject, "The Goddiness of Manhood." At the evening service Rev. Geo. A. Parker, LLB., assistant pastor of Nineteenth Street Baptist Church of this city, will speak. The Men's Choir will sing at both of these services. The Juvenile Elks will hear their annual sermon at the church at 2:30 p.m. BAPTIST COLLEGE CLOSES The Washington Baptist College presented its second annual closing exercises at the Second Baptist Church on last Tuesday evening. The exercises were very impressive and tended to demonstrate the necessary place which the institution is filling. Many prizes were awarded and many inspiring numbers rendered. The school is large- THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY. JUNE 15. 1928 A. REV. JAMES R. C. PINN, Th.B., pastor of the Shiloh Baptist Church, Newport, R.I. them over. But, we hesitate—we fear—we doubt. Few of us say, like Lord Nelson, "When I don't know whether to fight or not, I always fight." He who hesitates is lost. Don't spend your time in thinking of reasons why you can't, but rather do what you can the best you can, and what you can't do will cause you no worry. Feeble human efforts never bring real success. Getting money isn't making good. Getting property isn't making good. Winning fame isn't making good. That person has made good who has used his talent or talents to the best of his ability to aid in the advancing of this world Godward. Human powers must be coupled with Divine power or there can be no lasting success. We have but seventy years to assert ourselves, and, at best, half of those years are spent in finding oursives. God has given us all at least one talent. Are you making good? ly for the benefit of ministers and Christian workers. Rev. J. S. L. Hollomman is the president. THIRD BAPTIST CHURCH Rey. Dr. George O.

Oc --- A suit of injunction was filed last week in the District Supreme Court by trustees and deacons of the Second Trinity Baptist Church, Thirteenth street between O and R streets, northwest, against Rev. Grover L. Davis, 1804½ Eleventh street, northwest, and three of his alleged supporters. The plaintiffs, Monroe W. Richmond, chairman of the trustee board, and seven others; Irving Sample, Richard Vowles and Walter A. Griffin, trustees, and Robert J. Henderson, Thomas Hughes, Louis Lindy and Edward Penn, deacons, seek to prevent the alleged threatened return of Rev. Davis to the pastorate which he formerly held and from which he was requested to resign. The bill states that internal strife, during which the congregation of the church dwindled from four hundred to less than seventy-five persons, and an acquiring of heavy financial indebtedness during the regime of Rev. Davis, caused the officers to ask him, on March 16, to resign his position as pastor of the church. This Rev. Davis did, and the resignation was accepted to take effect within three months from that date. Later, the pastor announced to the trustees and deacon board that he would be willing to resign after one month if the church would pay him $650. This amount, it was agreed according to the plaintiffs, would cover a small amount of back salary due the minister and three months of salary in advance. The money was paid out of the $2,000 loan, secured by the trustees, on the church property, and on April 13, Rev. Davis preached his farewell sermon. Since that time the pulpit at the church has been occupied by different clergymen. These were selected by the deacon board. 1 Hair stays in place all day Pluko HUILE DE CINEMA ELEVEN On May 25, the plaintiffs aver, an alleged illegal meeting, in which Arthur T. Lewis, Laura Langhorne and Ethel Cooper, co-defendants in the suit, played an active part, was held, and a vote of non-approval of the minutes of the March 16th meeting was enacted. In this manner, the officers declare, the defendants sought to have Rev. Davis retained as pastor.* The bill further states that Rev. Davis has threatened to return to the pastorate, and also that threats have been forthcoming from the other defendants to use force if necessary to accomplish their aim of restoring the deposed clergyman. Rev. Davis, when interviewed by a Tribune reporter, Tuesday, declared that he had no desire and had furthermore made no attempt whatever to regain the pastorate. Efforts to communicate with other defendants have, to date, been unavailing. TRIBUTE IS PAID TO DOUGLASS Several thousand pupils of the Washington public schools, divisions 10-13, journeyed to the home of Frederick Douglass, in Garfield, D. C., Thursday (Flag Day) to pay tribute to the memory of the great Negro orator. A poem of welcome was delivered by Harold Jackson, student at the Mott School. Henry Dixon, Garrison School, delivered an "Ode to Douglass." From the "Life of Douglass," a pantomime by students of the Cleveland School, was beautifully enacted and artistically arranged. Eugene A. Clark, assistant superintendent elementary schools and Assistant Superintendent Gasnet C. Wilkinson gave a brief and interesting talk. The program was arranged by Misses M. E. Shorter and L. C. Arnold and Mrs. M. T. Lattimore, of the school system. It was presided over by Miss E. F. G. Merritt, supervising principal of divisions 10 and 11. Music was furnished by the Dunbar High School orchestra. ```markdown ``` MADAME HARRISON-ASTOR UNTIL NIGHT/ ```markdown ``` HAIR DRESSING EASY AND PLEASANT TO USE Amber 25¢ 920 U Street, N.W.

ZIFF 120 Liberal Progressive Independent TWELVE POSSIBLE VACANCIES at Howard give the lie to those who complain of lack of opportunities; for the prepared man or woman opportunities lurk around the corner; if they can not find a way, they make one. It is as true now as ever—"There is room at the top." Make of yourself an expert. CHARACTER HAS BECOME the slogan of those who wish to please the powers; the truth is, every man has character, but not necessarily the kind we find agreeable to us and our plans. What a man does and how he does it—that is his character. If a man conceive action in high purpose, both he and we shall gain from his conduct, though we do not admit it at the time when he acts. We assassinate or crucify the man we know, but later we spend centuries writing about and building monuments to the man he really was.

If you are too stiff, unsociable and dignified to play, this old world will soon cast you out. If you do not work, you can not play; you merely spend a leisure before you have earned it and must pay later. THE KEYNOTE OF THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION The speech of Senator George H. Moses, of New Hampshire, in accepting the position of permanent chairman of the Republican Convention at Kansas City, last Wednesday afternoon, was in reality the keynote of the historical meeting to nominate the candidates for president and vice-president for the election next November. Senator Moses spoke like a true Republican. He described the record of the party in the development of national affairs for the past sixty years; he recalled how it had corrected the uncertainty of greenbacks by specie payments; how it had avocated sound money as against the free coinage of silver, and how it had maintained the tariff for the benefit of American industries without discrimination against a single one. He recounted the frequently expressed confidence of the American voters who are more than five million majority Republican in any normal election, and pointed definitely to the unwillingness of the American voters to trust the government of the nation to a party whose greatest strength and greatest weakness was in sectionalism; a party that nullified two of the most vital amendments of the Constitution, the 14th and the 15th; a party that disfranchised four million American citizens; a party that in municipal government of one of our largest cities is already charged with graft to the tune of twenty millions of dollars, and finally a party that would place the affairs of the nation in the tender embraces of Tammany Hall. Senator Moses closed his forceful and outspoken statement of the vital principles of the old Republican party as we have known it, by challenging the Democrats to name any man they pleased on the ticket to be defeated by overwhelming Republican success. Taking Senator Moses' speech as a reflection of the platform of the campaign and as saying what Mr. Herbert Hoover would have him say in his behalf prior to his selection as the standard bearer, we look forward in the next administration to the full and complete recognition of the manhood rights of the Negro through whom the Republican party came into existence in 1854. THE ONE AND THE MANY A misunderstanding has grown up out of the theory of the equality of all men under the American scheme of government. It is so much easier to level men down to the position of the masses, that we have spent much time and enacted many laws seeking to regulate the fellow who thought, moved and acted in advance of our own tardy movements. When an idea is so far ahead of what we have accustomed ourselves to believe to be the fixed condition, we label it "radical," and kill it. Washington Tribune Published Weekly at Washington, D.C., by THE WASHINGTON BURENE PUBLISHING COMPANY The difficulties of Henry Ford in trying to finance his new motor car some twenty years ago, is an illustration in point. It was typical of the experience of thousands of other men, some of whom died before their ideas were adopted. Compared with monarchy, democracy or the rule of the people is destructive of initiative and new ideas. Of the scores of thousands of laws enacted every year, a majority is to restrain some people who are reaching out too far for the comfort of the masses. Business has shown democracy how to prepare the people for new ideas and to make them quick to adopt them; in advertising we have the solution of the dislike of the novel. By picture, story and even song, we prepare to introduce the new in such manner as to make people ashamed to follow the older course. The key man in all social progress is the one with an original idea. Prizes, medals, and awards are designed to bring out latent talent and to arouse buried ability. No people shall advance far until it learns to, and does, pay proper tribute to those souls with multiple initiative which sets thousands to work by reason of the visions which it pictures. A survey of our action in this respect at the several commencements shows that we are rehreshing old straw; not a single prize has been offered for new ideas where we are confronted with obstacles, but many have been awarded to those who dug up and rearranged what somebody else said about something else. The equality of all men was the point of departure at the signing of the Declaration of Independence; they were all equally guilty of revolt against Great Britain, but they at once began to make themselves unequal according to their several abilities. The logical result was leaders and social progress. Our group prays and begs for leaders, but when it finds out in what direction the leader wants the mass to move, it turns on its heel, settles down in the same old routine and comfortable dependency, and nods, dreaming of a promised land without any effort in reaching and possessing it. SCIENCE TALKS OF A LIFE AFTER DEATH An array of notable scientific talent has been questioned as to its opinion of a life after death, or immortality. As was to be expected, the most that they could say either for or against the idea, was: "Immortality can not be proved; no man has seen the soul; mind, soul and spirit are connected with the functioning of the brain." Just why scientists are called in to try to solve problems that can not in their nature be solved by science, is hard to understand. Science deals with the orderly arrangement of facts and the relations exposed to our view by such an arrangement. Immortality is not a fact, but it is a belief, an undiscoverable condition following the failure of the very brain that is necessary to understand it. How could the methods of science which deal with matter in its measurable aspects, be used in deciphering a condition which is separate from the material, and immeasurable? That there is a soul in, or spirit in, the universe, not alone in men, is a valid belief on the basis of the immaterial connections which we vaguely sense as "something back of what we really experience when we observe the phenomena of nature." The spirit in us reaches out for the spirit everywhere. It is profoundly affected by the beauties of nature, by natural phenomena, by the marvelous system in all existing things, by the presence of other human beings, and by the apparent invisible causation seen through history. No human beings are found who lack this feeling, though they may have adopted strange customs and queer ways of showing it. The failure is in the attempt to externalize what can not be made manifest.

My dear Sir: I am writing this as a protest against such recitals as was heard over the WRC Radio Station on last Tuesday night the 15th, by a group of singers called The Johnson Singers. It is strange why colored people seek to bellittle their own race for the amusement of thousands of white people who listen in over the radio every evening. Members of no other race would have disgraced themselves trying to poke fun at their own as did the Johnson singers on that night. In the first place there was no real merit, music or even humor in the whole program. It would have been serious enough had there been any artistic merit in their singing to have used their talent to the detriment of their own race, but possessing no merit and then to ridicule all that is sacred to the race, their religious worship, is condemnitory indeed. Let there be no more broadcasting by the Johnson Singers. Yours for the respect and regard for our own race. A Subscriber.

If you commune with the poetical muse, send in your original verses. Poems will not be returned if not accompanied by addressed, stamped envelope.) THE THING THAT LASTS There are so many things in this world, That man hopes to possess. He struggles hard, plans, and thinks, To reach a goal he calls success. But after all, what is achievement? What are the things that last? What are the things that brighten the future— What gave us hope in the past? Is it power, a keen intellect, or wealth? Is it ambition, self-satisfaction, or fame? Is it the hurrahs of admirers and friends That give us joy, and inspire our aim? Tis human to want these things; But like a flower they soon pass away, And we are left wondering and asking ourselves. For the things that last more than a day. If you want the thing that lasts, And to know real happiness and love; Go to the man who needs your aid And of your service freely give. For helping another, you enrich your soul, And it becomes more and more divine; Manifesting the greatest, yet simplest thing—love. And love only will last, and stand the test of time. 1747 Oregon Ave., N.W. CAPT. MEHLINGER IN MISS. FOR GOVT. Capt. Louis R. Mehlinger, an attorney in the Department of Justice, spent last Wednesday in Worcester, Mass., representing the Government in the taking of testimony in a Court of Claims case. LAWYER'S DAUGHTER ILL Mrs. Georgia Jones-Johnson, daughter of Attorney and Mrs. Thomas L. Jones, has been confined to her home on account of illness. Mrs. Johnson suffered a fall. Her condition is much improved. times have tried to picture what their spirits felt, believed, or would make manifest. Even the scientist in his pursuit of the relations of things in nature, is showing what he feels to be the spirit of truth. The best that he may say is that from a scientific point of view immortality is not to be proved; in saying that he tells the truth and displays his idea of spirit. To another, the spirit is compassion, to another it is love, and to another it is justice, while to still another it is power, and so on; but to those who "be as little children," "the kingdom of heaven is within," and they know beyond peradventure, by living to attain unto it, that there is an immortality of the soul. The more the scientist discovers about this finite world, the more secure he makes the believer in the infinite world, because the scientist proves the symbols and prophecies to be true, but he, "by taking thought, adds not a cubit to his stature" as finite man with a mind limited to the mastery of material problems of which immortality is not one.

Even if we do go away, or take camp ing trips, we can study nature as an open book. Dallas Lore Sharp said in a chapter from 'The Life of John Burroughs' that, 'John Burroughs lacking things to read inside, turned to the fields and woods, and leafing these sunlit, starlit, rain blurred pages as the seasons came and went, found many an interesting story there.'

The club consists of the following boys: Frank Wheeler, president (Dunbar), Ignatius Cordove, vice-president, (Dunbar), eroge Butler, treasurer, (Armstrong), Bernard Coleman, secretary, (Armstrong), James Lennon, sergeant-at-arms, (Dunbar), William R. Anderson, (Armstrong), Reginald Jackson, (Armstrong), Bill Coleman, (Armstrong), Alonzo Turner, (Armstrong), Richard Jones, Armstrong, Frances Jenkins, (Dunbar), William Tinney, (Dunbar), and D'Orsay Bryant, (Armstrong). The club, which was recently organized, and which is an athletic and social club, was formed for the purpose of promoting better brotherly feeling and school spirit between the two schools, Armstrong and Dunbar. It promises to be a success in its purpose. Exams for Cadets Held The examinations of the line officers and non-commissioned officers of Armstrong and Dunbar Cadet Corps was held Tuesday, June 13. The staff examinations will be held Friday, at Dunbar, and the band examinations Friday at Armstrong. The Dunbar interclass swimming meet for boys was held in the Dunbar pool, Wednesday, June 13. The Dunbar year book, "Libre Annl," was distributed among the seniors. The book was in every detail a splendid example of authorship and high class printing. It contains all things concerning the school clubs, athletics, and the affairs of the graduates. The printing was done by Murray Brothers' Printing Co. Armstrong High School Armstrong High School An assembly in honor of the Armstrong baseball team was held Thursday morning, June 14, in the school auditorium. C. T. Adams spoke of the down-falls and victories of the team, and the wonderful sportsmanship and teamwork of the boys, which enabled them to have a strong team. He introduced the following boys and recommended them for athletic letters: Ernest Johnson, captain; Louis Dahney, business manager; Frances Lynn, Costello Nash, Herman Scott, Richard Jones, Elton King, Leon Perry, Edgar Lee, Andrew Campbell, Charles Henderson, Joseph Snowden, William Fulford, and Edward Queen.

It means University is holding a precarious position. No instructor, however innocent, is immune. It is, therefore, no wonder that members of the faculty are highly incensed at this action of the administration. "Unjust Steps Taken" "Unjust Steps Taken" The students at Howard University are beginning to see the affair in its true light. Although they heartily sanction the protection of womanhood, they are beginning to see that the steps taken have been both unjust and unwise. It is because of this opinion that rumbles of dissatisfaction and threats of a strike in the coming autumn are everywhere heard on the campus. Already several hundred students have petitioned the President to reinstate the four professors. The writer has sounded out opinion among both faculty and students and has found it to be that a great injustice has been done; that there is something more sinister involved than the mere pro-That a great injustice has been done is indicated by the farcical nature of the trial which the men were allowed. There was something very irregular about this. Even stripped of its technicalities, no legal court would have dared to take such steps. Let us look into the case of each professor. "Charge is Frame-up" One of the professors involved is a scholar of high repute—a man whose unsullied character is generally known and can be affirmed by reputable and reliable citizens of the community. Yet he was dismissed on the basis of an unsupported statement of an irresponsible girl. He was allowed no opportunity to defend himself. Although he submitted the names of reliable witnesses to prove conclusively that the frivolous and nonsensical charge was a fapication, his defense was wholly ignored. These witnesses were never called in. The accuser, when facing him, contradicted her own statements too freely to give them the color of truth. His accusers brought forward another charge based wholly on hearsay. This charge was proved absolutely Piano Tuning Telephone, Franklin 7395-W Free booklets on care of the piano FEMALE TROUBLES New Treatment Proves Successful FREE BOOK Open Evenings and Sundays.

This also was ignored. The charge was clearly a "frame-up." The Other Cases Another of the professors was dismissed on a charge which the girl involved repudiated on the ground that there was nothing irregular in the professor's conduct; that his action had been sanctioned by the officials of the university. A third member of the group was dismissed on a very stupid charge. His work at the university demands frank discussion of a problem that the whole world must face. That his discussions were not unwholesome, that they were always within the limits of decency and discretion, is the opinion of all sensible students who have attended his courses. But his discussions have offended the strait-laced and puritanical sensibilities of certain persons in a position to injure him. The problem of sex is so important to human life that it is preposterous that a person should be dismissed for his frank and helpful discussion of it in classes of men and women mature enough to be in college. This attitude is not based on the desire to "protect womanhood"; it is prudery—the basis of the vilest kind of immortality. Against the fourth member of the group no specific charge whatever was made. No girl has yet testified against him. It is true about three anonymous notes charging him with misconduct were received by the Student Council. But any girl who was as sure of protection from officials as the girl in this case, and who, nevertheless, resorted to an anonymous declaration against the man, is either a sneaking coward, a vicious liar, or both. If the administration blandly hopes that by dismissing four professors from its faculty it has "protected womanhood" and "cleaned up its house," as a good alumnus has urged, it is destined to have a rude awakening. By no such means may cleanliness at Howard ever be assured. The trouble lies deeper than that. In spite of the fact that the president is reported to have declared the situation hopeful, because only four members of the faculty were involved, it is the general talk among the students that there are professors at Howard — some of whom are, by the way, old enough to be the fathers of those dismissed—who have a notorious record as to their conduct towards the co-eds. Such a condition overlooked by the investigators gives rise to speculation as to why these men have been so carefully shielded from exposure. Since the good alumnus is destruous of "protecting womanhood" at Howard University, and since he has such a highly developed taste for investigation, it would be for the interest of the university and for the general enlightenment of the public if he would delive into this condition. He should certainly have the whole-hearted support of the writer. There has been a wide-spread demand for "cleaning up" at Howard. A house cannot be cleaned in this way. As long as a single portion remains filthy the whole structure is contaminated. If "cleaning up" and the "protection of womanhood" had been the unsullied motive behind the recent affair, different steps would have been taken and different results would have been obtained. It is the opinion of the writer that something uglier and more sinister lies back of the whole affair. The dismissal of at least two of the professors is the climax of a long-standing plot for revenge on the part of a certain high official of the u. university. Then, again, these professors held positions that have long been known by persons well-known to the backers of the affair. A fraternity also is believed to have motives underlying this affair, may not one draw the conclusion that the professors are not only not so bad as they are painted, but that they are whelly innocent? May not one assume that they are guiltless victims of a damnable and well-organized plot? The alumnus claims that the names of these professors have always been mentioned in connection with misconduct and freshness towards co- (Continued on page 5) Nine burials have been made the New Linecol Memorial Center during the first half of the week.

The Other Cases "No Charge Made" "Clean-up Howard" "Climax to Plot" HOWARD PREXY REMAINS SILENT (Continued from page 1) the situation which grew out of the publication of an article in the student paper, "The Hilltop," under the title "Just Rumor." The sending of a petition by the student body is the second step taken by the students within a week in behalf of the instructors who were dismissed. As stated in the Tribune last week, a delegation called on Dr. Johnson on Monday of last week and asked for a re-consideration for the men who were slated to go. To Avoid Demonstration Some of the students have claimed that the letters of dismissal to the professors were held up by President Johnson until Commencement Day so there would be no student demonstration. The letters do not state what charges, if any, have been lodged against them. The letters were transmitted to the men by Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of the university, on last Friday, the 8th. The letters, which were of uniform verbiage, stated that the men were dismissed on recommendation of President Johnson. (Copy of one of the letters appears elsewhere on this page.) With the retirement, either voluntarily or involuntarily, of nine professors and the dismissal of four others, the university loses the services of thirteen instructors. Most of these instructors have been at the university for many years and several are graduates of the university. The following professors received the letters of dismissal last Friday: 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.

FRIDAY, JUNE 15, 1928 A. M. E. ZION CONFERENCE (Continued from page 1) of professional men, and Miss Mason welcomed the conference for the church. An extraordinary feature of the session was the presence of nine bishops of the A. M. E. Zion Church. Beside Bishop J. S. Caldwell, Bishop E. D. W. Jones and Bishop George C. Clement, the following members of the bishopric were in attendance: Bishops E. G. Shaw, Birmingham, Ala.; C. C. Alleyne, New York; W. W. Matthews, Washington, D. C.; L. W. Kyle, Winston-Salem, N. C., F. M. Jacobs, Brooklyn, N. Y. and W. J. Walls. W. H. Davenport, editor of "The Star of Zion," the church organ; C. S. Whitted, secretary of the Brotherhood; S. M. Dudley, church extension secretary; H. T. Medford, secretary of Foreign Missions, and Mrs. Daisy Johnson, connectional president of the Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary Society were among the general officers present. The Thursday afternoon session was featured by short talks from each of the visiting bishops, at the conclusion of which Bishop E. D. W. Jones arose of his own accord and moved that the church take cognizance of the twenty-fifth anniversary, as a bishop, of Presiding Bishop J. S. Caldwell. Bishop Jones said in part, "It is seldom that the A. M. E. Zion Church or any other church, for that matter, can boast of a man who has been elected not only 4, but 8 years, not only 8 but 16 years, or not only 16 or 20 years but 25 years as a member of its bishopric. "I have taken the floor to suggest that this conference appoint a committee to arrange for the celebration next May, of the twenty-fifth anniversary of Rev. J. S. Caldwell, a man, a true minister of the gospel and a most worthy associate, as a bishop of the A. M. E. Zion Church." The motion was met with favor and after considerable comment on the part of his fellow bishops, Bishop W. W. Matthews arose and asked that he be allowed to second the motion in view of the fact that his assignment to a pastorate in Oakland, Cal., 25 years ago, was the first official move of the then newly elected Bishop Caldwell. Bishop Matthews declared, "I wish to second the motion, and in seconding it, I pledge a silver offering—native silver—from the heart of Africa." The motion was unanimously carried. Dr. William J. Trent, president of Livingstone College was the principal speaker of the Thursday night session. The convention will continue through Sunday, when at 3 o'clock the announcements of the assignments of pastorates will be made from the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, Fourteenth and Corcoran streets. The assignment of a successor to Dr. H. T. Medford, former pastor of that church, newly appointed Foreign Missions secretary, will be watched with interest. A resolution was unanimously passed at the afternoon session endorsing organic union of the A. M. E. Zion and the A. M. E. bodies. A plea for organic union was made at the morning session by Bishop C. C. Clement who is chairman of the commission for the Zion Church. BURIALS AT NEW CEMETERY Nine burials have been made in the New Lincoln Memorial Cemetery during the first half of this week. Likewise a great number of people have visited this new burial park on Suitland road. This impressive tract has brought forth many favorable comments from those who admire beauty of architecture and landscape. The cemetery is said to be one of the best in this section.

The automobile parked about a half a block from his home, he states. He caught a glimpse of his, wife seated in the rear, he claims. Going to the automobile and opening the door, he charges, he found her: I Charly Johnson embracing and kissing each other. He remonstrated with his wife about her conduct, he says, and Johnson assaulted him and he cut Johnson with a knife. During the altercation, he states, his wife told Johnson, "Run, Charley, run." When he and his wife got home, he declares, he ordered her to pack her things and get out. She confessed to him, he alleges, that she had been intimate with Johnson for a period of two years and asked his forgiveness. He refused and has not since lived with her, he says. Acquitted of Charge In police court, October 29, 1925, he was acquitted of an assault charge growing out of his fight with Johnson, he states. Recently, Mr. Williams alleges, he came into possession of letters addressed to his wife by Cecil Robertson, written in terms of love and endearment. The letters were written on board the Steamer Plymouth, Fall River Line, Pier 14, North River, New York City. The envelopes show that they were addressed to Mrs. Stella Williams, 2125 L street, northwest. They were mailed from College Station, New York City. One of them showing a postmark of August 3, 1927, is as follows: "Stella Honey: How are you? I must admit that I didn't write often this week, but it wasn't that I was negligent. It was because I didn't want to write in the frame of mind I was in. "If You Need" "Stella, enclosed you will find $15.00. I'm so sorry I can't send you any more now, but if you need anything please let me know. From the way things look I don't think I will make school next winter; if I do, it will be just luck. "I'm tired, honey—not only physically but I feel as though there is a great weight on my mind dragging me down. I haven't got you near to me to tell me that you love me, but just thinking about you helps to keep me alive. I read the last letter you wrote so many times that I almost know it by heart. "My love, I know just how you feel having to go out places alone, but just thinking of me being on the river every night and day, lonesome and heart broken. As I have to go out today to get a money order I think I'll go over on Broadway to a matinee which might do me some good. I'll tell you about it tomorrow. "Time is flying, honey. Each day brings us closer. Will you be glad to see me? Oh, Stella, when I think of our meeting I almost go crazy with joy. "I'm feeling pretty good these days, sweetheart. I'm taking good care of myself for you because when I see you I want to be looking good. Take good care of yourself and remember we will soon be together. "Your own Cecil."

SCHOOL CLUB GOES ON OUTING 一 In accord with their annual program, the School Club of Washington spent last Saturday at Highland Beach, in a day of pleasure, of recreation and fraternity. As the guests of former mayor of Highland Beach, E. B. Henderson, who is chairman of the executive committee, the club motored from the home of the retiring president, C. O. Lewis, at 7 a.m., and after an inspection of the town, including a visit to the beautiful but "sacred" beach, they breakfasted at Ware's Hotel where a delicious and bountiful service of freshly caught salt water fish was the center of the meal. To avoid wasting the hours of busy men, away from their several tasks, a program was announced beginning with matches in pitching horse shoes. Despite the fact that W. L. Smith spent some thirty minutes making a special pair of shoes for the contest, the first ringers were made by G. C. Wilkinson and his partner, R. I. Vaughn, and the tourney was won by Messrs. E. A. Clark and F. J. Cardozo. During the interval after play, sharply contested games of whist was in process, vicing with boating, fishing (a ball tossing in preparation for the scheduled game of the afternoon. With refreshing milk from the Henderson estate in Virginia, served at noon by the genial chairman at his home which was headquarters for the outing, the club members were divided into two teams and the ball was tossed out to pitcher Clark and catcher Wilkinson at 2 p.m. With brilliant but laughable fielding by F. E. Parkes and W. L. Smith on one side, and wild pitching by J. C. Bruce on the other, supported by some strange decisions by Cato Adams, a guest, who was requisitioned as ampitie and scorekeeper, the record of errors, hits and runs soon used all the available paper and the game was called. C. C. McDuffie, J. C. Saunders, J. C. Nalle, and Jimmy Cowan, the other guests, all pasted the leather sphere into distant areas. At 2:30, in response to the dinner bell, a wild rush to the wash room of the Ware Hotel was followed by an enjoyable feast of Virginia fried chicken with trimmings in abundance, until the table was cleaned and the waiters exhausted. The afternoon was spent in awarding the prizes and in that good natured Joshing for which the school club is famous. At 6 p.m., just ahead of the oncoming storm, all motors were headed for Washington, after proclaiming Mr. Ware a prince of hosts and the chairman of the executive .committee "a jolly good fellow."

S. and Mrs. Mittle Webb, 79 R street, northwest, have established quite an enviable record for family co-eds to shoot at.

Chittags, deceived her into marrying him by misrepresenting his financial status, Sarah C. Chittags, 1132 Whittingham street, northeast, through Attorney Joseph N. Jones seeks to have the marriage annulled. A petition for annulment of the marriage states that Chittams represented to the plaintiff that he was employed as a cook at a salary of $125 per month. It was not until after the marriage, June 25, 1924, that Mrs. Chittams asserts she discovered that her husband, instead of being a cook at the salary stated, was a house man at the Hamilton Hotel. Four days later, Mrs. Chittams declares, the man quit his job, and since that time has refused to provide for her. In the nearly four years of their marriage, the plaintiff avers she had had to leave Chittams for various reasons and return to her parents. Once, Mrs. Chittams says, she went to her mother's home because of cruelty, and on several other occasions she left him because he failed to provide for her. Each time she was persuaded by Chittams to return to him. Chittams, whose address was formerly 215 Tenth street, southeast, has moved. Efforts made by a Tribune reporter to reach him have failed.

PETERSON R HENSON ```markdown ``` LONGHAIR FREED BY JURY IN DEATH OF MAN KILLED IN FIGHT Brought to the conclusion that the death of George E. Bowling, 633 K street, southeast, last Wednesday night, was more the result of his own negligence than of the injury he received in a fight with Clarence Dorsey, 629 K street, southeast, May 26, a coroner's jury exonerated the latter, who was being held on a charge of homicide. Bowling died from an infection which developed after he was allegedly struck in the head with a brick by Dorsey, during a fight following Dorsey's criticism of some liquor which Bowling had sold him. He was given medical attention at Casualty Hospital, and told to come back for further treatment. Bowling refused to return to the hospital even against the advice of his personal physician. The man's condition, said at first not to be grave, gradually got worse until less than two weeks later he died. Witnesses at the inquest declared that Dorsey resorted to the brick only after Bowling had given him a severe beating with a heavy stick. The altercation grew out of a liquor argument. Dorsey is said to have declared a drink he purchased from Bowling was "rotten stuff." Bowling allegedly took offense and armed with a broom stick chased Dorsey from the house. Grabs Brick Upon reaching his front yard, witnesses declared, Dorsey reached down and in his own defense picked up a brick with which he struck Bowling. Policeman Thomas N. McVearrie, attached to the Fifth precinct arrested Dorsey and charged him with assault, for which he forfeited a collateral of $10 the following Monday morning. With the death, Wednesday, of Bowling, Dorsey was rerestored and held for the inquest. Bowling is survived by his mother, Margaret Bowling, two sisters, Carrie Bowling and Nancy Watson, and three brothers, Richard, James, and Thomas Bowling.

J. G. Logan, a science teacher at the Shaw Junior High School, was prompted to the principalship of the Shaw Junior High School. School Ready in Fall The transfer of Miss Kirkland and the promotion of Mr. Logan will be effective one month prior to the completion of the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School building. The school authorities expect the building to be turned over to them by the commissioners of the District of Columbia in the fall. Mr. Mattingly has had no experience either in business or as a teacher of commercial subjects. He has been in the local public school system for 23 years. For 21 years he was head of the department of mathematics. He was appointed principal of the Francis Junior High School, January 1, 1927. He graduated from Amherst College in 1905 with the degree of bachelor of arts. He is a Phi Beta Kappa man. The Board of Education granted Miss M. C. Harris, head of the department of mathematics a leave of absence for a year's study in Europe. She was awarded the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority prize of $1,000 for study abroad for her achievements as a teacher of mathematics.

The National Benefit has never missed a year throughout its corporate existence when dividends have not been paid. The capital stock of National Benefit is fully paid, and this cash dividend of ten per cent represents a distribution of $28,000. The corporation in 1918, declared four hundred per cent stock dividend, on which it has also regularly paid cash dividends. President R. H.

In attendance were a host 1920 LITTLE MINNIE ELIZABETH KOONCE, whose funeral was held Wednesday. of relatives and friends of the popular little maiden, including the principal, A. K. Savoy and several teachers of the Garrison School, where Minnie was a pupil. Rev. Walter H. Brooks, of Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, officiated at the ceremony. He was assisted by Rev. H. B. Taylor, of the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church. Th child died at 3 o'clock, Saturday morning at the Children's Hospital. She was taken to the hospital from her home on May 29, when family physicians decided that such a move would have to be made as a last resort. Minnie took sick on Easter Sunday. Sceptic poisoning which located and settled in the heart was the cause of death. The little girl was born in this city March 1, 1920. She was embodied with a remarkable degree of intelligence and a sunny disposition. She was well liked by her many young friends, and was a favorite of the older generations.

TRUSTEES GIVE MISS BURROUGHS O.K. AT MEETING HAMPTON INSTITUTE. Va. June 9.—Rural leadership of Virginia and adjacent states will assemble for the annual farmers' conference at Hampton Institute on June 18-20, according to an announcement by Director Donald Fenn, of the School of Agriculture, when farm-demonstration agents, home-demonstration agents, Jeanes supervising teachers, delegates from community groups, and men and women active in raising the ideals of rural living will confer on matters vital to the farm and farming. The trustees of the National Training School for Women and Girls held, their regular annual meeting at the Training School, Tuesday, June 5. It was attended by members from all sections of the country. Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, the president of the institution, presented her annual report. She called upon the board of trustees to assist in raising $100,000 with which to complete the Trades Hall and to build a dining hall and chapel. The board voted to get behind a nation-wide drive and raise the money. The Trades Hall is nearing completion and is to be equipped before the opening of school. The faculty is to be enlarged by the appointment of four new teachers. The following resolution of confidence in Miss Burroughs was unanimously adopted: A Resolution "We affirm our absolute confidence in the ability character, and leadership of Miss Nannie H. Burroughs as president of the National Training School for Women and Girls, and we uselessly and wholeheartedly pledge her our continued support of the principles, policies, and program as definitely set forth in her annual report." President's Report Applauded The trustees received the president's report of the operation and general support of the public during the year, with great enthusiasm. They applauded the fact that President Coolidge attended the trades hall benefit by the famous Hampton choir. They also sent resolutions of thanks to Presideit Gregg of Hampton, Dr. Jason Noble Plerce, pastor of the First Congregational Church of this city, President Mordecal W. Johanson of Howard University, and other friends who contributed to the effort to raise funds for the institution. They appointed a special committee on the drive for funds with Watt Terry, of Boston, as director, Professor Byrd Prillerman of West Virginia, chairman, and Dr. A. Clayton Powell of New York, in charge of publicity. The commencement week exercises which began June 3 were largely attended. Rev. W. H. Moses preached the baccalaureate sermon. The commencement address was delivered by Dr. A. C. Williams of Detroit. Fifteen prizes for scholarship and excellence in activities were presented to students. The chairman of the board of trustees, Mrs. Mary V. Parrish, awarded the diplomas and certificates, and declared as the spokesman for the board, that the training school is entering upon a glorious day. laid, scraped and finished, also oak stairways installed. Let me give you an estimate. Prices reasonable. Work guaranteed. The trustees pledged themselves to give ten days each to putting the cause of the training school squarely before the people of their respective states, and in order to carry out the program of enlargement, several of them assumed the responsibility of the salary of at least one teacher, and the equipment of the new building.

Of the four men dismissed, one has the Ph.D. degree and the others have done considerable work toward the same degree. All are scholars and teachers of unquestioned ability. They have spent years in preparing themselves for their positions; yet the administration has seen fit to attempt to injure their careers upon the basis (Continued from page 2) eds. Strangely enough, during the writer's four years at Howard University she has never heard a single specific charge of misconduct toward co-eds against a single one of the professors involved. This is more than she can say for some other members of the fac- Over 129 Satisfied Customers Have Been Served During the Time. Loans Range from $100 to $25,000 OVER $250,000 IN INSURANCE PLACED More Than a Million Dollars Worth of Insurance Has Been Placed With the Bankers' Fire Insurance Co., of Durham, N.C. IS PIONEER APARTMENT HOUSE MANAGER Most of Largest Apartment Houses in City Owned by Negroes Were Sold Through Office of M. M. Harris "From small acorns, great oaks grow," may well be applied to the firm of Mortimer M. Harris of 613 F street, northwest, real estate brokers. From a small beginning in 1916, under the guidance of Mr. Harris, the business of this firm has rapidly expanded and annually mounted to a new high figure. Since January 1, 1927, Mr. Harris has placed over $250,000 on Washington property in the form of second and third mortgage notes. During this same period, he has placed over $100,000 on local property in the form of first trust mortgages. The business of over 129 satisfied customers has been handled in the above transactions during this period. The amounts of these loans have varied from $100 up to over $25,000. Mr. Harris is one of the largest writers of fire insurance in the city. He has written more than a million dollars worth of fire insurance alone in the Bankers Fire Insurance Company of Durham, N.C. This company is the largest fire insurance company owned by Negroes. During the past year, Mr. Harris has written over $250,000 worth of insurance. Mr. Harris is also the pioneer large apartment house broker and manager. Among the large apartment houses purchased through him are, the Windsor, $175,000; Nolando, $50,000; S. H. Dudley, $45,000; the Ilkley, $45,000; the Berlin, $40,000. In addition to the sale of these large apartment houses, Mr. Harris is the first Negro to develop moderate houses for Negroes. Through his office, a large number of houses were constructed at Second and W streets, northwest, at a cost of over $100,000. This development was financed entirely by Negroes. Mr. Harris handles all branches of real estate sales, renting, buying and financing. All kinds of insurance, including the new workmen's compensation insurance, are written. The rental department has properly listed in all sections of the city. Another service offered the public by Mr. Harris is the financing of new home improvements. Persons who own their property can have any of the modern improvements installed and pay for same in small monthly payments. Electrical wiring, new baths, new porches built, hot water heat installed, houses painted and papered and anything else for the improvement of property can now be installed at a very small cost and the property owner can have plenty of time to pay for same. Many houses are now equipped with all modern improvements through this service of Mr. Harris. During this summer, Mr. Harris is offering school teachers the opportunity of borrowing any amount of money they desire and pay same back during the winter. There are many teachers who desire to attend Summer School, take up special studies, or repair their homes. To these teachers, Mr. Harris offers an unequalled service. For any real estate service, Mr. Harris says he offers the public as fine a service as can be obtained anywhere. He maintains an automobile to carry prospective customers around to see the properties he has for rent. Mr. Harris is a graduate of Howard University and is well known for civic activities. of unsubstantiated charges of irresponsible and malicious persons. This is the third time in less than two years that the present administration has struck a blow at responsible and malicious persons. scholarship, the chief reason for the existence of a college.

Another professor of equal eminence—a scholar of marked ability—was allowed to go to another institution without even a gesture on the part of the administration to retain his services.

HA Because they see everything through their narrowness and bigotry, it is impossible for them to render a sane decision about anything. That the decision in this case was reached before a single one of the accused was ever brought to trial is the firm conviction not only of the writer but of all intelligent persons who considered the facts in the case. "Trial, a Farce" The purpose of the writer has been to give the public the truth. Prior to this the public has been allowed to know only one side of charges—the desire to injure someone, to make vacancies for friends. She has also shown that too little regard has been given to scholarship and faithful service; and that too much emphasis has been placed upon a hypocritical and puritanical point of view of the problem. If she has merely opened the eyes of the public to the fact that credulous students of the university are being used by corrupt persons, both within and without the university, as "cat's paws" for forwarding their own personal ends, she will feel in part satisfied. to OME p lvice Free ages es, or trusts. else in the 0,000 Place Past Year IME to r HOME Cheap O LOAN ents and Advice Free Mortgages ome t, second and third mortgages, or trusts. cannot be duplicated anywhere else in the IMPROVE YOUR HOME ENJOY MODERN CONVENIENCES Electrical Wiring, New Baths Installed, New Porches Built, Hot Water Heat, Painting & Papering.

Owing to the great amount of. time needed for the editing, setting on linotype and’ assembl- ing of box scores, the earlier they are sent th the better the chance of their being run. Tues- day night, however, is the ab- solute: latest for Sunday games. ‘The Oriental Tigers added two more victims to their growing list for the 1928 season. when they took the count of the crack Oval Blue outfit, of Baltimore, Md, in the 5B opener, and then finished off a full day by trouncing Hayes Jones’ Washington Giants, 13-0. “Serip” Lee, former Hilldale ace, toiled for the Tigers against the Marylanders, ang let them down with seven scattered hits. He was ably assisted in turning the victory by his teammate Burgess, whose fielding at first base was notewor- thy and whose stick work was out- standing. The southwest first sacker connected three times safe- ly in four times at bat. “Red” Powell, fast ball artist of the “Prides of the Point,” toed the slab in the nightcap, and though the Giants met his offerings with consistency, the Oriental hurler es- caped unscored on.** eer oe ee ab h rl abr Graigab... “tO O|Savages.. “4 0 1 Daviess... 4 2 GiCarterse. 40.1 Tewises.., 4 0 S\Cornuhib.. 4.9 0 Greenesidxt 3 1 O/Savagec,.. 4 1 1 Burgersib.. 41 3/Milges 41 2 Brockset. 40 1V.

C. — Tootie Barbour crowned himself with glory as the Myrtle A. C., sent the renowned LeDroit Tiger crew back to its Fourth and W street haven, to nurse a 7-6 lick- ing administered before nearly 1000 persons, here last Saturday. Home runs by Mace Jefferson and Bernie Brown were found to be of no avail by Cap Kenner, as his Tigers were forced to stand by and see their age old rivals, with the aid of Barbour’s flair work, push the winning counter across the pan, in their last half of the ninth.’ The Myrtle left- fielder. produced the winning wal- lop, when he came to bat with two men out and Moten on second by virtue of a single and an infield out. The hit was a slashing line drive to left center, and was. the last of five hits in six trips plate- ward. Each of the Tigers, with the ex- ception of Beverly and Braddic, participated in the team’s hitting, while all of the Myrtles except Gaines and Johnson had a share in that club’s batting.** eae wees.

SPORTS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7 Joe Walcott Employed by Miller as Trainer BY Fairces: One of the things which keeps the boxing game alive is the age old arguments regarding the prowess of the boxers. Who was the most scientific, who was the greatest ring general, toughest, and so op, Not that any of these points have ever been definitely settled or ever will be, but they certainly add zest to many sporting occasions and turn @ sometimes drab evening into a seething turmoil. But we have serious doubt {f any question is ever broached as often as the following, who was the greatest bitter of all time? Now we are on a subject that will bring forth the wisdom of the universe. Starting with Jolin L. Sullivan, for before that the game was a combination of boxing and wrest- Hing, many will say that the Bos- ton boy was the superior of them all. Others will contend that Peter Maher, while known to have a little ¢hina in bis chip, could belt with the best of them."

But in speaking of real simon pure hitting, in giving away weight and still bring them down in a shapeless mass, inert and usually face forward, did any of them ever equal Joe Walcott, the squatty it~ tle black man from Barbados? If you doubt this assertion, look back through the record of this mighty midget, who never weighed more than 145 pounds and who fought and knocked out a host of the best fighters of his time, not only in his own class but up to and including the heavyweights. After an active ring career that extended over a period of almost twenty years, Joe drifted from one means of making an honest living to another. The life and death of “Tiger” Flowers made a profound impres- sion on Walcott and some time ago he became an active church worker who takes his religion seriously and abides by the Golden Rule.
