PERRY W. HOWARD SAYS HERBERT C. HOOVER IS FAIR AND SOUARE FIRST in Advertising and Circulation Vol. VIII, No. 5 PERRY W. H HERBERT C. FAIR AN Denies Nominee Had Lily- White Machine, Cites Mixed Delegations TO "STUMP" FOR SEC'Y Describes Convention as One of Greatest in Party History The Hoover-Curtis ticket will sweep the country in November. That is the prediction of Perry W. Howard, Republican national committeeman for Mississippi, who returned from Kansas City last Tuesday night in order to be here for the meeting of the special committee of the national committee that conferred with Hoover and Curtis, Thursday. Mr. Howard described the Kansas City convention as one of the greatest in the history of the Republican party. Colored Republicans, he said, as delegates "played as conspicuous a part as they have played in many years." "There has been much said," he declared, "that there was a Hoover machine and it was lily white. This I emphatically deny. I do not think one would call the Mississippi delegation, one-half colored and the other half white, lily white. South Carolina "South Carolina, one-half colored and one-half white, was seated. Robert R. Church, representing the tenth congregational district of Tennessee, was recognized. On the Florida delegation there were several colored. Cohen and one other from Louisiana were seated. "From the point of law there was no merit in the contest from Texas brought by my friend, William McDonald, for the reason that the Texasaws, as emphasized by an opinion by the Attorney General of that State, provide that all delegates shall be elected in a general state convention. The McDonald-Wurzbach delegation was elected in districts. Plaved Fair "The Hoover people played the game fairly and squately. They certainly kept faith with me in every particular, and nothing delights me more than to know that I was able to discover in this great man early in the game the prospects of a great American President and party leader. "I shall take the stump and defend Mr. Hoover, without equivocation, on the charge of lily-whiteism attributed to his friends. "There has never been a stronger ticket than Hoover and Curtis. I know of no member of my race group who cannot afford to support it. Mr. Hoover has taken a more forward step than any Cabinet officer in abolishing segregation. He has been fair in all matters affecting our group even in peace times as well as in war. Retains Cohen "Perhaps it is telling things out of school, but it will be of interest to know that this great mind heard the cry of Cohen and the word went from Washington to Kansas City that regardless of regularity Cohen personally should not be turned out of the convention. "Our Mississippi organization was a Hoover organization. It was one of the first to endorse the Secretary. We were standing with the Hoover line-up first, last and always. We have no apologies to make for our vote with the Hoover people in the contests. We feel that every case was decided upon the merits. Hoover's Organization "Organization means organization. The Hoover management headed by Secretary of the Inter-(Continued on page 3) MAN IS HELD FOR HOUSEBREAKING Earle Williams, 27 years old, was ordered held for the action of the grand jury under $1,500 bond on a charge of housebreaking. He is alleged to have entered 2232 Bancroft place, on last Sunday, and stolen clothes, jewelry and money belonging to Miss Ethel Jennings. WEBICAN VISITS IN PITTSBURGH PITTSBURGH, Pa., June 21 (PNS).—George E. Webican, former Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks, spent a few days in Pittsburgh renewing old acquaintances and looking after some business matters, last week.

HOOVER IS ND SQUARE ATTACKS STUDENT ARTICLE Writer Claims One of Four Profs Dismissed Made Advances to Relative GIRL TAKEN FROM H.U. Says Dr. Johnson Proved His Fitness to Lead by Action By Fair Play Having read with deep interest the article by Edith F. Murray which appeared in last week's issue of the Washington Tribune regarding the lamentable situation at Howard University, and being personally familiar with some of the facts in the case of one of the professors whose name has been prominently mentioned in connection with the affair and whose appointment as instructor was recently terminated, I can not, in justice to the administration of Howard University, refrain from observing that it seems to me that the truth is being juggled and real facts grossly garbled and distorted, either intentionally or otherwise, in an effort to discredit the prompt, decisive, and courageous action taken by the university's head to purge Howard—our leading educational institution — of certain questionable and undesirable influences and to correct a situation which was rapidly bringing reproach and shame upon the university. Two things are clearly apparent, either Miss Murray is not as fully conversant with all of the facts in the matter as she claims to be, or she has been led, in the ardor of her enthusiasm, to make certain representations which are not only dangerously misleading but are susceptible of absolute and unequivocal contradiction. She most certainly knows not whereof she speaks when she says that the administration of Howard University has seen fit to attempt to injure the careers of the dismissed men "Upon the basis of unsubstantiated charges of irresponsible and malicious persons." Personally Concerned The writer of this article, who respectfully declines to accept the honor of being classed either as "irresponsible" or "malicious," was personally concerned in the case of one of the professors in question, whose ungentlemanly attempt to force unethical and undesired attentions upon a girl student in his class—a member of the writer's (Continued on page 2) NEGRO IN DEATH CELL GAVE MORENO COURAGE Samuel Moreno, white, one of the three gunmen who died in the electric chair this morning, for the shooting to death of Policeman Leo K. Busch, September 26, 1926, told newspaper reporters, Wednesday that a poem handed him by Malcolm Howard, a Negro, who is doomed to follow him, July 8, did more to inspire him and prepare him for his fate than anything else. Mareno's statement follows: "Poor Malcolm Howard (a Negro who also occupies a cell in murderers' row and is under sentence to die in the electric chair on July 8) read me a little poem. Here it is: "We will trust and obey, But to trust and obey. "Trust and obey. That was all I needed was to trust and obey. At once I saw I had been anxious about my guidance, and that this was the exact message I needed in this time of my sorrows and uncertainty. "Then I got on my knees and prayed to God all I knew how with all my heart and soul and then when the light flooded my pathway the problem was solved. Trust and obey. Thanks be to God, my sins are forgiven." ONE ACQUITTED, ONE GUILTY OF STEALING A jury in criminal court last Thursday acquitted one man and convicted another in two cases of housebreaking. The freed man was represented by Attorney John H. Wilson. The convicted man had a white lawyer. The two men were Curtis Bond and Stewart Fontaine. They were charged with breaking into Breslau's and Kaufman's department stores on March 22 and 23, stealing ladies' wearing apparel, including coats, suits and hats. Two of the stolen hats were given to Vi Carter, Third street, southwest, by Bond. She testified against him. Bond made a confession to the police, saying that Fontaine was his accomplice. Fontaine denied the charge. Justice Bailey instructed the jury that the confession was to be used only against Bond. The jury acquitted Fontaine but found Bond guilty as charged. ALLEGED WRITER OF LIBELOUS LETTER HELD W. W. Simpson Charged with Accusing W. A. Baltimore in Letter to William W. Simpson, 2207 Eighth street, northwest, a waiter at a local hotel, was ordered held for the action of the grand jury, when arraigned in police court on a charge of libel. Tuesday. Judge John P. McMahon fixed bond at $500. Simpson was charged with being the author of an alleged libelous letter, written over his signature and dated April 20, 1928. The letter was addressed to Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent of public schools, and concerned William A. Baltimore, a teacher of printing at the Shaw Junior High School. Dr. Ballou testified that he had received several other letters bearing the same signature as did that which brought about the criminal libel charge. Simpson Inferred Mrs. Belle Nelson, a friend of Simpson, who was summoned as a government witness, testified that a few days after she read of Simpson's arrest in The Washington Tribune, she saw him and asked him about the charge. Simpson, she declared, inferred that he may have been the author of the letter. The warrant for Simpson's arrest was issued, May 18. On the morning of May 19, Simpson, accompanied by his counsel, George D. Horning, gave himself up at detective headquarters. Assistant United States Attorney Ralph Given prosecuted the case. Attorneys Canfield and Horning, representing Simpson hinted that the defense would be based on forgery. NEGRO DEMOCRATS TO MEET IN CLEVELAND CLEVELAND, O., June 21 (PNS)—Plans are almost perfected for the meeting of colored Democrats to be held here July 23 to 25 inclusive. Walter F. Brown is making preparations for the big meet. Councilman E. J. Gregg will make the welcome address and present the keys of the city to the delegation. Headquarters of the convention will be in Zion Baptist Church. The sessions will be held in Convention hall. It is claimed there is a growing interest in the work of Negro Democrats and many clubs have been formed throughout the state under the leadership of Mrs. Alice Hendricks who is said to have organized 5,000 race women throughout the State. There are said to be over a thousand Negro Democrats in the city of Cleveland and thousands throughout the State of Ohio. Preparations are being made to entertain several thousand visitors from all parts of the country, many of whom have already signified their intention to attend the meeting. BAKER RETURNS FROM KANSAS CITY Edward Baker, cashier of the Prudential Bank, returned to the city this week after attending the Republican National Convention which met in Kansas City, Mo. Mr. Baker accompanied Professor John R. Hawkins to the convention city. Professor Hawkins was a delegate-at-large from the District. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JUNE 22, 1928 LYNCHING IS FIRST PLANK NAILED TO DEMOCRATS' PLATFORM DR. S.J. JOHNSON SEC'Y OF CHURCH EXTENSION DIES Best Report in History of the Office Submitted to A.M.E. Conf. Funeral services for Dr. Samuel James Johnson, secretary-treasurer of the Church Extension Board of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, were held Monday, from the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church, M street between Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets, northwest. One of the largest turn outs in the history of the local A.M.E. Church was on hand to pay homage to one of the most successful general officers in the body. Bishop A. L. Gaines, of the Second A.M.E. District, was master of ceremonies. The sermon was preached by Bishop William D. Johnson. Eulogies, in each of which tribute was paid Dr. Johnson for his strenuous efforts toward a general religious uplift, were delivered by various officers and members of the church. He was regarded as one of the church's most capable managers of finance. His colleagues eulogized him as a character worthy of the highest respect and emulation. Short Illness Dr. Johnson died, last Thursday night, following an illness of less than a week. While his condition was considered grave by those close to him, the end came as a shock to the city. Dr. Johnson was elected for his second term at the general conference of the A.M.E. Church, held in Chicago, last May. At that time Dr. Johnson turned in his first quadrennial report, which turned out to be the most successful report in the history of the office, he held. It was believed by many that Dr. Johnson would be assured election to the bishopric in 1932, the year of the next general conference. Dr. Johnson was 51 years of age. He was born in Texas. Dr. Johnson began his career as a clergyman in San Antonio and worked his way from missionary to pastor of the St. James Church, the largest station in the state, where the funeral service was resumed yesterday (Thursday) in preparation for interment of the body. Marie T. Thomas, 1713 S street, northwest, has been named as acting secretary-treasurer until a successor to Dr. Johnson is appointed. When this appointment will take place has not been ascertained. "OPPORTUNITY" HAS NEW EDITOR NEW YORK — The National Urban League through its executive Secretary, Eugene Kinckle Jones, announces the appointment of Elmer Anderson Carter, Executive Secretary of the St. Paul and Minneapolis Urban Leagues, as Editor of "Opportunity" magazine to succeed Charles S. Johnson, whose resignation takes effect September 15th. Mr. Johnson goes to take charge of the Department of Social Sciences of Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn. Elmer A. Carter was formerly Executive Secretary of the Columbus, Ohio, Urban League and the Louisville Urban League. Prior to coming to the league Mr. Carter was head of the Department of Mathematics in Prairie View State Normal School, Prairie View, Tex. During the war he was a member of the 92nd Division, A.E.F. He was born in Rochester, N.Y., and educated in the public schools of New York State and Harvard University. METHODISTS ENDORSE INTERRACIAL WORK KANSAS CITY, Mo., June 5 (PNS)—The work of the Commission on Interracial Co-operation, with headquarters in Atlanta and branches throughout the South, was highly commended by the Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church in their address to the General Conference in recent quadrennial session in this city. Lynching Occurs On Eve of Democratic Nat'l Convention $10,000 Appropriated by State to Apprehend Offenders HOUSTON, Tex.—Robert Powell, 24, colored man, a patient in the Jefferson Davis Hospital, was taken from his sick bed and lynched by an unidentified mob here Wednesday. The fact that the lynching occurred on the eve of the opening of the Democratic National Convention, while thousands of delegates and visitors are in the city, has caused the city and state officials to start a determined search for the lynchers. The city council met and appropriated $10,000 for an investigation by a committee composed of six members, two of whom are Negroes. District Judge Langston King ordered the grand jury to drop all other matters while it inquires into the lynching. Governor Dan Moody has offered a reward of $250 for the arrest of each participant in the lynching. He has ordered high officers of the State Rangers to proceed to Houston and assist in rounding up the lynchers. The body was found swinging from a bridge just outside the city limits of Houston. The colored man was charged with the killing of A. W. Davis, a city detective, in a gun fight here Sunday night. He was wounded in the exchange of shots. This was the first lynching in Houston in fifty years. OPPORTUNITIES IN INS. FIELD EXPOUNDED R. H. Rutherford, president of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, issued a statement in which he called attention to the fact that one of the greatest needs of Negro life insurance companies is men trained for their work. The time has passed for men unable to secure employment in other directions to take up life insurance "on the side." The National Benefit and other life insurance companies are now calling to the hundreds of graduates who are coming out of the various institutions of learning to prepare themselves for co-operation with these growing financial institutions. The present need is for groups of men, and even women, who have made a study of insurance needs and fundamentals, business insurance, and practical selling and the psychology of selling. The young men and women who are graduating from the various colleges and high schools of the Negro race could turn their earning capacity in no better direction in the future than by preparing themselves for service under the direction of the trained men who now conduct our life insurance companies. "The National Benefit and other life insurance companies," Mr Rutherford says, "can not maintain their present stride unless there is to be found among the young men and women coming out of our colleges a sincere willingness to study the opportunities opened to them, not only for present employment, but for race building as well. Practical instruction can well be offered in classrooms by our educational institutions with the definite classroom suggestions to be worked out in the field, if our educators will begin to study the openings which are spread before the thousands of young men and women who graduate at about this time each year." CONFERENCE ACTION TO HAVE WIDE EFFECT The action of the Philadelphia and Baltimore Conference in the passing of a resolution in favor of Organic Union, is destined to have much effect on the other General Conferences, according to prominent churchmen. Both bodies of methodists acted unanimously in favor of organic union at their last General Conferences. This action must now be ratified by two-thirds of the Annual Conferences of both denominations. It is predicted that this majority will be obtained within the coming year. OFFICE: 920 U STREET, N.W. HOWARD IS GRANTED STAY OF EXECUTION Malcolm Howard, who is under death sentence for the murder of his sweetheart, Jesie Nelson, at No. 2351 Sherman avenue, northwest, February 5, 1927, was granted a stay of execution by Justice Siddens in criminal court last Monday. The date of his execution was postponed until July 9. The court was informed that President Coolidge would be asked to grant clemency to Howard. Howard's defense was that the shooting was accidental. The testimony however, showed that after he had shot her the first time and she was apparently dead, he pointed the gun directly at her head and chest and fired three more shots. Howard remained in hiding for several days. While police were conducting a man hunt for him, he was at the District morgue kissing her lifeless body. He surrendered later. His conviction has been affirmed by the District Court of Appeals. Falls from Roof into Alley Dies Later from Fractured Skull Running away from a police raid, Herman Askins, 28, 239 N street, northwest, last Sunday morning, fell from the roof of a house in Willard street into an alley and fractured his skull. He died 12 hours later at Freedmen's Hospital. Police from the eighth precinct were raiding No. 1762 Willard street, northwest. A dice game was in progress. Askins was one of the players. He attempted to escape from the house by climbing over the roof. After crossing the roof of 1760 Willard street, he fell into the alley between 1760 and 1758 Willard street. He was found lying in the alley by Policeman S. M. Scott. He was removed to Freedmen's Hospital in the private automobile of Policeman R. J. Barrett. He was examined by Dr. W. B. Wade and was found to be suffering from a fractured skull. Deputy Coroner Joseph D. Rogers issued a certificate of accident death. PORTER ARRESTED ON GIRL'S THREAT CHARGE Clinton A. Jones, a porter, was ordered to pay a fine of $100 or spend thirty days in jail by Judge John P. McMaho) in Police Court, Tuesday. Jones was arraigned on a charge of threats of personal violence "against Eleanor Mason, 2313 Seventeenth street, northwest. The arrest of Jones was brought about through the complaint of Miss Mason, who called Eighth Precinct police, Monday night, and requested that an officer be sent to her home and arrest a man who had allegedly threatened to kill her. The man was Jones. Conflicting Stories Miss Mason told police that he followed her from a grocery store, and when she was unable to avoid him, the girl said the man threatened her life. They had been close friends, she admitted, until three months ago when they had a falling out. Jones testified that he had neither followed nor threatened her, but that he offered to walk with her when they met in front of the store, and that she accepted. He said he carried her bundles and hat, and was left standing with them at the front door while the girl went under the pretense of entering the back way to open the door for him. He said he knew nothing more until he was placed under arrest. LINCOLN PRESENTS SOUND-PICTURES The Lincoln Theater, which is a member of the Lichtman Theaters, Incorporated, opened last Sunday with Vitaphone and Movietone attractions. This is the second uptown house to install the Vitaphone, but the first to install the Movietone. The management of the Lichtman enterprises have also announced that, beginning with next week, they will present non-synchronized music at the Howard Theater. This is a musical accompaniment, but is not synchronized with the picture. The Lincoln opened to a good house Sunday and has enjoyed large crowds all the week. The bill is a very pleasing one. U STREET, N.W. MANY STUDENTS DIPLOMAS A COMMEN MANY STUDENTS RECEIVE DIPLOMAS AT SCHOOL COMMENCEMENTS DEFENDS RECORDS OF PROFS. Howardite Claims President Caught in Net of "Alumnus" Says Administration Has Lost Influence Over Faculty & Students NOTE—This is the first of a series of articles which will be published by a Howardite, and which will present to the public the truth about Howard University. This first article will deal in an intensive manner with the recent sensational dismissal by President Mordecai Johnson of four of his strongest professors. The writer is convinced that the public should be supplied with the facts which he is about to present, in order that it may form a balanced judgment as to whether or not President Johnson was justified in taking such calamitous action—calamitous to Howard University, to the president's own administration, and to the tenure of office of every member of the faculty. The statements which the four professors received from the board of trustees did not make known the definite reasons for their removal, but thrust before their eyes a camouflaged announcement. It is known, however, that these four men's names, along with other names, were discussed in connection with recent charges made against certain professors as the result of an investigation that had been in progress for more than six weeks. Professors Damaged Inestimable damage has been done these four men. The writer has not the space to point out the numerous ways in which they have been seriously injured by such a thoughtless, unwarranted, and unjust decision as the president has handed out to them. Makes Grandstand Play Custom has decreed, and wisely so, that whenever charges of this nature are brought against an individual, the person or persons who judge the case should always hold the accused innocent until he is proved guilty beyond a shadow of doubt. This is the only fair manner in which to decide such cases. Nothing the world could warrant the action in which the president took with reference to these four men, unless igt was his fear of the Alumnus and of what he unwisely interpreted as public opinion; or his eagerness to flash upon the imagination of the public his empty moral program. [EDITOR'S NOTE—Alumnus is the pen name of an anonymous writer of several articles concerning the university which have appeared in a Negro weekly newspaper.] It is true that the public is and ought to be interested in the welfare of Howard University, but can it construe such an unwise and tyrannical procedure as indicative of his sincere interest in the moral well-being of this great institution of learning? The writer is firmly convinced that any genuine desire in this case to improve the morals of the university was far from the president's intention. The writer can interpret this action as being nothing other than a grandstand play-downright politics. Meanwhile, the public continues to strain its ears in an endeavor to catch an echo of the president's educational program for Howard University. New Tactics Needed The president will have to adopt some new tactics if he expects to magnetize the public. He cannot do it by sensational action and brow-beating, which disrupt homes, wreck professional careers, and destroy the morale of the university—action based on unproved and exceedingly trifling testimony. There is nothing which can cause the crepe to be hung on the door of a president's administration so (Continued on page 3) Let our classified column rent that vacant room. Call Potomac 1667. IN WASHINGTON nearly everybody reads the TRIBUNE PRICE FIVE CENTS ENTS RECEIVE AT SCHOOL CEMENTS DUNBAR HIGH SCHOOL Commencement exercises of the Dunbar High School, at which time 216 students of the academic and business departments were grauated, were held in the school auditorium, Tuesday night.

ARMSTRONG HI SCHOOL Ninety graduates of the Armstrong Technical High School were awarded diplomas at the twenty-seventh annual commencement exercises, held in the school auditorium, Wednesday night. Mrs. Mary A. McNeill, member of the Board of Education, presided. Diplomas were presented by Dr. J. Hayden Johnson. The address to the graduates was made by Rev. R. W. Thomas, pastor of the Ebenezeer Methodist Episcopal Church. Rev. Thomas J. Brown pronounced the invocation and the benediction. Garnet C.

Virginia Alma Marshall was announced the winner of the scholarship to Morgan College, Baltimore. A $100 scholarship to Howard University, offered by a local daily newspaper, was won by William Francis Newman. Newman, representing Armstrong, won over the Dunbar representative in competitive examination. This is the first time in the history of the award it has been captured by a student at the technical school. The Major James E. Walker Memorial Medal, significant of the leader for the four years, in athletics, scholarship and deportment, was won by Captain Louis D. Dabney. The Charles B. Bailey Prizes, awarded annually to the boy showing the most progress in technical work, and to the girl showing the most progress in domestic science work, were given to James O. Snowden and Leah M. Barringer. The Armstrong High School orchestra rendered music for the occasion. The program included "Soldiers' Chorus," "At Sunset."

Liberal Progressive Independent NO MAN'S SKIN COLOR SHOULD INDICATE HIS POLITICS, but each intelligent citizen should vote for the best interest of the group to which he belongs—national, sectional, industrial. Because politics is the handmaid of economics, we seek to enact into law the policy that best favors our life and living. GREATER WEALTH MAKES PEOPLE SELFISH, but there is nothing in things of themselves to warrant the death of the spiritual life; we still have need for sympathy, charity, modesty, chastity and love.

It is surprising how little we know of our own community, good and bad. OUR THEATRES Now that our theatres have kept up with the progression in invention and given us the music and voice to accompany the picture, there is reason for old and young making at least one trip to experience the novelty. There is such a blend of nonsense and wisdom in the portrayals of life as pictured in the moving picture industry, that we sometimes look into a mirror when we see a show, and sometimes leave it much uplifted and moved to higher aims and greater effort. Shakespeare's declaration that "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players," has been demonstrated by this new art that uses the new born infant or the decrepit grandparent. The merely beautiful face of the one with its soul shining forth, and the other twisted into a gargoyle, the snow capped peaks or the desert sands, the wind, rain, flowers, animals and the clouds, all serve to create in us those emotions which nature long ago established in our ancestors who felt what we now feel only when in a darkened room and attentive to the effect of the moment. An occasional visit to the theatre is a tonic; regular trips give us material for thought and conversation, and trips made with groups of our friends and acquaintances establish common bonds such as our grandparents were able to form by living together in neighborhoods where the troubles, perplexities and oddities of some were the common talk of all. So long as our children and youth show their appreciation of the sterling virtues, as they do by their spontaneous applause at the theatre, we shall continue to have confidence in human progress despite some of the other modern conduct at which we stand appalled. THE VIRGINIA ELECTION On Tuesday, the citizens of the commonwealth of Virginia were granted the opportunity to vote upon progressive changes in their state constitution. Among the provisions which profoundly affected the welfare of the colored citizens, was the one to legalize the local election of school trustees who shall choose the superintendent of schools. Just what such a provision means to the children of the state, should have been made the subject of organized information to assure its adoption and to prepare the colored people for the new day of local self-government. We wonder just how many of the more than 350,000 colored citizens of voting age, met the one qualification necessary to cast a ballot for the beginning of their manhood rights? To vote upon so vital a proposition as the new constitution, it was necessary to have paid the poll tax last May. That action privileged a citizen to vote both on the present election and in the presidential election of next November. When we recall how wealthy are some of the counties which are predominantly colored along the North Carolina line and on the eastern shore of Virginia, we feel that somebody in the state is lacking in vision and intelligent leadership not to have stirred the Washington Tribune Washington Tribune Published Weekly at Washington, D.C., by THE WASHINGTON POST PUBLISHING COMPANY, Inc. 920 U Street, N.W.

ZIFF CO., Chicago, New York, Los Angeles. OLOR POLICITizen interest longs—ial. Bemaid of act into our MAKES people to a white heat of enthusiasm for entering the civic life of their commonwealth through the local self-government involved in the several phases of the new state charter. Governor Byrd and his assembly have followed by action close upon the words of President Coolidge who suggested that local self-government would save the nation from federal encroachment. Virginia is out to take her place again among the first states of this nation. That her people of color, who are about one third of the population do not catch the inspiration and accept the civic responsibilities thrust upon them by this new era and this forward-looking regime, will mean serious and unrecoverable loss to the whole people in the south. We have a right to expect that matters so vital as the election and the possible consequences not only to the colored citizens of Virginia but to all colored people, would have been taken up by the state college for colored youth, but as yet we have not heard a peep from anybody at Petersburg. There is too much of that kind of scholarship that is so much absorbed in acquiring degrees for learning what has happened, that it can find no time or value in leading the people to see what is happening and what may happen. If any people need university extension it is our group, but aside from the federal agencies that help the farmer, there is precious little done by the people with the longest titles, the most advanced degrees, the best positions and the biggest pay. Eight years ago we urged Virginians to enter citizenship by way of the schools, and they responded by trying for the senatorship against candidate Anderson, a lily-white. Today, they have let pass an opportunity to vote for their control of the schools and a greater element of local self-government. There is something wrong with the higher education; it seems to be too high to get down to the problems of the people whose children it is paid to teach. Some of the publicists of our group are playing the baby act and thereby demonstrating their unfitness for the new game of American politics. Having been so long wards and followers, they are indignant and raise the bugaboo of race and color discrimination to discredit the men who were far seeing enough to guess right as to the probable nominee of the Republican national convention. Perry W. Howard was one of the original Hoover boosters, and it is not surprising that he would stand by his original choice when his choice turned out to be the majority choice of the national convention. Every man capable of playing the game of political organization knows, or ought to know, that the people controlling the national committee will put on the temporary roll those delegates who (all other things equal) are pledged to "vote right." In voting as he did, Mr. Howard did right, and in criticizing him for not voting for the delegation because it was composed in part of colored delegates, the publicists do wrong. That Mr. Hoover is the wisest choice of the people delegated to make the nomination is to be gleaned from his words which from his record in the past, are a true index of the intentions of the man; he said, in response to a telegram from Senator George H. Moses, "A new era and new forces have come into our economic life and our setting among nations of the world. I stand upon the platform adopted by the convention. Under its principles the party will assure national defense, maintain economy in the administration of the government, protect American workmen, farmers and business men alike from competition arising out of lower standards of living abroad, foster individual initiative, insure stability of business and employment, promote our foreign commerce and develop our national resources." That platform and those intentions are sufficient guarantee to any and every American citizen who is asking for no special favors because of his color, of an Your Big Opportunity Do you want to make big money quicker and easier than ever before?

KANEKO Blinding Pain at Certain Times "I was very weak and thin and used to suffer with very severe headaches," says Miss Annie Mae Brown, (1221 R. Whitaker St., Birmingham, Ala.) "I would be almost blind, the pain was so severe," she says. "This was when I was just entering the upper classes at school. I didn't want to get behind. I suffered with my back and sides, too. Someone suggested that my mother give me Cardui, for which I am very thankful. I took 6 bottles at that time, and was soon strong and well and did not have severe headaches or pains at certain periods. "Twice since I have been a grown woman I have taken Cardui, and it never failed to help me."

I would say "Lincoln's Gettysburg Speech." It is the grandest and noblest thing of which I know. Read it and learn it: "Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that the nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here have consecrated it far above our power to add or detract. "The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us, that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people and for the people shall not perish from the earth."

TEACH YOUR CHILD TO PLAY SAFE Don't Say Nigger THE KIND GIRL AND THE UNKIND GIRL By Thelma Sherman (9) Once upon a time a little girl named Marie was very kind and her sister, named Mary, was very bad. One day their grandfather, who was very old, got sick and their mother told them that one of them had to go and stay with him for a month. The bad little girl said that she wouldn't go, the good little girl said that she would go. So the good little girl went on her way. She had not gone far when she saw a Plum Tree which said, "Will you pick up my branches and tie them with your ribbon?" The good little girl said that she would and went on. Next she met a Peach Tree, and it said, "Will you shake my leaves so they can dry?" The little girl did this and then went on her way. She next met a Cherry Tree and it said, "Will you clean away the weeds from around my roots, little girl?" The good little girl did this and then went on until she met a Pool of Water. It said to her, "Will you clean the leaves out of me so I can be clean?" The little girl cleaned the Pool and went to her grandfather's house. She cleaned the house, cooked his meals, and took good care of him for a month's time, and then she went back home. The Pool had a lace dress for her, the Cherry Tree had a pair of shoes, the Peach Tree had a string of pearls, and the Plum Tree had a diamond ring for the good little girl. She thanked them and went home. When the bad little girl saw all of these lovely things she decided to go to get something for herself. As she went along she met the same things that her sister did, but Mary was too selfish to help any of them, and she was also unkind to her grandfather the whole month that she stayed there. When she came back they did not have anything for her. So Mary went home with a very sad heart and decided to be kind ever after.

Local Clergyman Discusses Religious Beliefs of Famous Men JOHN BROWN By Rev. Walter H. Brooks. These articles are written in response to the article by Edgar M. Grey, entitled "Black White List and White Black List," appearing in the April 14 issue of The New York News; and to the reproduction of the same point of view by W. E. B. Dubois in his June issue of the Crisis. These views held that William Lloyd Garrison, Abraham Lincoh, Frederick Douglass, and John Brown were men to be classed with Clarence Darrow as free-thinkers. Some friends of infidelity have claimed John Brown as a man of their anti-religious spirit, and put to the credit of infidelity his martyrdom and his contribution to the cause of human freedom. But he speaks for himself. Here is what he said a few days before his death. He was writing to his cousin, Rev. Luther Humphrey: "I also feel that I have long been endeavoring to hold exactly such a post as God has chosen. See the passage in Isaiah which you have quoted. No part of my life has been more happily spent than I have spent here; and I humbly trust that no part has been spent to better purpose. "It is a long time since we met, but we shall soon come together in our Father's House." I trust. our church's House. I trust . . . "Let us hold what we already have, remembering that we shall reap in due time if we faint not. Thanks be ever unto God, who giveth us the victory through Jesus Christ our Lord. And now, my old warmhearted friend, good bye. "Your affectionate cousin, "JOHN BROWN." I am making the above quotations from an article which appeared in the National Baptist Voice, June, 1928, under the caption, "John Brown Wasn't Down Hearted." Let us reflect a moment. John Brown was a man who believed in God. John Brown believed that God had a chosen work in life for him, and declared that he had endeavored "to hold exactly such a post as God has chosen." John Brown believed in the immortality of the soul, and in Heaven as the dwelling place of the spirits of just men made perfect, and anticipated the time when he and other servants of God would be in their "Father's House," in the land of endless glory. John Brown believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world, and, in the very shadow of the gallows, rejoiced that the cause which he was dying to promote should be crowned with ultimate victory, "through Jesus Christ our Lord." Moreover, let it ever be remembered that John Brown thought and wrote in the language of the Bible, as is evident from his letter to his cousin, the Rev. Luther Humphrey. And what man, friend or foe, in the wide world, foresaw that in ten years after the death of John Brown, the vast millions of colored Americans for whom he died, should be free, and the soil of Virginia, on which his life was yielded up, should be dotted with schools of learning, and America's new birth of freedom ushered in? May we indulge the belief that John Brown foresaw the marvelous transition when he wrote, "Let us hold what we already have, remembering that we shall reap in due time if we faint not." NAT'L MEDICAL ASS'N TO MEET AUG. 13-17 BALTIMORE, Md.-The annual convention of the National Medical Association will meet at Baltimore, Maryland, August 13 to the 17th. The president, Dr. C. V. Freeman, is doing everything possible to make this the greatest year in the history of the organization. The president states that although only 2,000 of the 6,000 eligible professional men, for membership in the association, were members of the association at the beginning of the year, a large increase is expected in membership when the reports are received at the Baltimore meeting. Splendid arrangements are being made at Baltimore, for clinical and scientific work at prominent hospitals. The National Medical Association is expecting at least 3,500 physicians, surgeons, dentists and pharmacists at Baltimore. NEW YORK HEALTH CENTER GRADUATES TWENTY- NINE NEW YORK CITY, June 21 (PNS)—Emma F.

All of the children had completed a course in health, as prescribed by the school. ATTACKS STUDENT'S ARTICLE (Continued from page 1) family—was promptly resented and resulted indirectly in the withdrawal of the student from the university. In this particular case (and I wish to make it clear that I have no personal knowledge of the merits of the cases of the three other professors involved) I know beyond the shadow of doubt that the action taken by the head of the university was not only wholly warranted but fully justified by the facts in the case. The professor's actions in this one instance alone clearly showed him to be unfit to have any jurisdiction whatsoever over female students. Miss Murray seemingly takes the peculiar and untenable position that, because of a professor's scholarship, his efficient service, his unquestionable ability, his high degree of learning, or because he has spent years in preparing himself for this position, his lapses and irregularities (to put it mildly) should be condoned and pallated and his services retained by the university. I find it hard to agree with such a proposition. We possibly may expect such actions among those who have not had the benefit and advantages of superior culture and education, but when we find them practised by a man of supposedly high and moral attainments and qualifications, able to differentiate clearly between right and wrong, ethical and unethical, "malum in se" and "malum prohibitum," there can be no extinguishing circumstances — no sane, legitimate reason or excuse for the retention of his services NOW IS THE TIME to REFINANCE Your HOME while Money is Cheap Monthly Terms Less Than Rent Appraisms and Advice Free Consolidate the Mortgages on your Home Come in and let me show you how you can save money by combining your present first, second and third mortgages, or trusts.

Unethical Familiarity That conditions at Howard University were not what they should be—that there existed undue and unethical familiarity between certain instructors and female students under their charge—has long been the subject of gossip and rumor not only among the student body itself but throughout the citizenry of Washington generally.

Far from being dogmatic, narrow, bigoted, or putitanical, I found him to be a broad-minded, sympathetic, courteous gentleman, as firmly determined to protect from insidious and unscrupulous attack the character and reputation of the men who had devoted years of their lives to preparation for the positions which they held as he was to safeguard the welfare of the young women who constitute a large proportion of the student body.

Prof. Mills Inhumanly Treated Feeling is still high against the inhuman treatment accorded Professor Clarence Harvey Mills, one of the most eminent Negro linguists in this country, a man whose scholarship was destined to bring honor to Howard University, Professor Mills' forced leave about a year ago was due to an "ugly" statement which he made to Dean Lucy D. Slowe, who had provoked his indignation to "meddling" into his "affairs." Professor Mills himself stated that the president told him that it was unnecessary to send any communication to the board of trustees in behalf of his cause, because no action would be taken against him. But contrary to this assurance, he was given an indefinite leave of absence on the flimsy pretext that he was ill. It is reported that Professor Mills has recently applied for reinstatement, but has been told that there is no opening for him. 15 Professors to Leave The recent action of the president has sounded a death knell to his influence over the student body and his entire faculty, and to the success of his administration. At the present time, the faculty of Howard University is terribly disrupted. It has lost all confidence in the president as an administrator. At least fifteen members of the present faculty will not be with the university next fall, and many of those who are expected to remain have already begun to look elsewhere for employment and security for their families. The obligation which the president owed to his man who were charged was a thousand times stronger than the obligation he owed to the "public"-Alumnus. The only statement that the public was eager to hear, was: "You may put your minds at ease, there is nothing serious." No president can administer the affairs of a university with his eyes focused wholly on the public. President Johnson's fair treatment of these men would have generated more public respect than his sensational gesture at the gallery can possibly do. Alumnus Dictates Policy Alumnus anticipated every possible mode of escape which the president might attempt, and closed to him all avenues. Alumnus told the president, while tactfully praising his "cool-mindedness" in this crucial situation, just what to believe, just how to proceed, and just how to decide. The president has been caught in his net. There is no more beautiful illustration of how an executive has played into the hands of unscrupulous politicians ANNUAL RECITAL By the pupils of Eva Virginia Johnson, from classes in Piano and Voice John Wesley A.M.E.

The writer has secured from a reliable source of information the statement that the president affirmed that he was merely going to admonish the men to be more careful, if the matter had not reached the public. But since the matter had reached the public—and he knew before hand that it would do so—he would have to act in a manner that would satisfy the public. Remember, now, the public did not know what the charges were. Alumnus, turning aside from the in the newspapers, there could be only one decision—public or no public. The president assisted the public in getting a "horrible" conception of the situation by giving out to the press statements of his judgment of these charges before even the hearings had been held. Such statements were unbecoming a responsible executive.

The writer has secured from a reliable source of information the statement that the president affirmed that he was merely going to admonish the men to be more careful, if the matter had not reached the public. But since the matter had reached the public—and he knew before hand that it would do so—he would have to act in a manner that would satisfy the public. Remember, now, the public did not know what the charges were. Alumnus, turning aside from the variety of matters in his own school which were in great need of intelligent supervision, placed himself in the most perilous position conceivable, that of a slanderer of the moral characters of other men, some of whom he would not know if he saw them. The aim of Alumnus was to impress the public with the idea that the charges were exceedingly grave, and to dictate the policy of another educational institution while loud rumblings were being heard throughout the city about the manner in which the institution of which he is head is being administered. The writer has been informed from authoritative sources that Alumnus had just about arrived at the crossroads—out of the affairs of Howard University or out of the Washington public school system. President Blunders It will be difficult for the president to explain this paradox: his statement to the public that the charges were very "damaging and distasteful" and his later statement that, had the matter been kept away from the public, he was going to call the men in and have a little talk with them.

Ben Davis May Lose Post To White Man as Ga. Committeeman GET NO PRESS SEATS Contests Over Seatings Decided in Favor of All- White Delegations Returning delegates and politicians from the Republican National Convention, held in Kansas City, Mo., June 12-15, bring reports of a determination on the part of Republican bosses to eliminate the Negro from the councils of the party. Their view results principally from the action of the convention on the contest for national committeeman from Georgia. The report is current that there was an understanding that the next national committeeman for Georgia would be white. The two contestants for the place, Benjamin Jefferson Davis, of Atlanta, and Joseph H. Watson, of Albany, are colored. In order to eliminate both Mr. Davis and Mr. Watson, the rules committee changed the rules regarding the selection of national committeeman. Previously where two names are presented by a state delegation for national committeeman, the delegation is polled and the person receiving the larger number of votes is declared to be the national committeeman. This was done in the case of the late Henry Lincoln Johnson at the convention in Chicago in 1920. After the Georgia contest had arisen at the convention this year, the rules committee reported a special rule that whenever two or more names are presented by a state delegation for national committeeman, the matter would be automatically referred to the national committee for settlement. When national committeemen were being selected and the Georgia delegation was called on to name its selection, A. T. Walden, of Atlanta, arose to present the name of Mr. Davis. Senator George H. Moses, the permanent chairman of the convention, would not recognize him. The report is being circulated that there was an agree- Piano Tuning Tunings $4.00 Estimates for REPAIRING REBUILDING C. W.

Senator Moses waited until he returned while Mr. Walden clamored for recognition. Mr. Pickett moved that the rules be suspended and the Georgia delegation be permitted to name its national committeeman from the floor. This motion was defeated by a viva voce vote. A roll call was demanded. Representative Franklin W. Fort, a floor leader for the Hoover forces, moved to lay the Pickett motion on the table. His motion was carried. swimming suits, old clothes and mothers' nerves are in for wear and tear never to be equalled by the hardships of winter, rust and school-term solitude. In spite of the fact that constant watching will be a source of worry Peter Salem, a Negro, was one of the heroes of the Battle of Bunker Hill. Every year, exercises in his memory are held around the monument on this famous hill. This strategy prevented the election of a colored man. Had the Georgia delegation been permitted to name its national committeeman from the floor, either Mr. Davis or Mr. Watson would have been selected. "As it is now, the national committee has full power to choose a national committeeman for Georgia, and the prediction is made that he will be a white man. Meanwhile, the national committeeman for Georgia is vacant. The term of Mr. Davis expired with the convention. He was filling the vacancy caused by the death of Henry Lincoln Johnson. The southern contest cases are also cited as evidence to show the tendencies of the Republican party toward the elimination of the Negro. The seating of the Kuntz delegation from Louisiana marks the passing of Walter L. Cohen, comptroller of customs at New Orleans, as a factor in party affairs in Louisiana. The organization in that state now is white. The Wurzbach-McDonald-Littleton delegation from Texas, which was defeated for delegate seats in the convention, had eleven Negroes on it. The Creager delegation, which was seated, was all white. Segregation was rampant everywhere. Negro delegates and visitors did not have hotel accommodations provided for them. They had to resort to private homes. Mr. and Mrs. Eugene P. Booze, of Mound Bayou, Miss.; William L. Mhoon, of Jackson, Miss.; Robert R. Church, of Memphis, Tenn., and John T. Risher, of Washington, D.C., as far as could be learned, were the only colored persons who were accommodated in white hotels. Colored delegates with delegations from northern states were forced to live at quarters away from their delegations. Colored newspaper men were denied the privilege of sitting at the press table. Claude Barnett, of the Associated Negro Press, and A. L. Holsey, of Tuskegee Institute, sat in the gallery. Mr. Barnett appealed to Chairman William M. Butler, but Mr. Butler turned down his request. He told Mr. Barnett that no provision had been made for them. There was ample press space. White newspaper men even had members of their families sitting at the press table with them.

More than one hundred dollars was realized from the effort. Rev. J. E. Toomer, a Howard alumnus, is pastor of the church.

The Tigers came back in the sixth when, with the bases Joaded and two gone, Van Smith ‘knocked a two-bagger to deep cen- ter thereby scoring two runs for ‘the Cats.

In the last frame, with two gone, Manager Braxton came to bat as @ pinch hitter for the Lions and Frazier blazed three across his former manager's chest for the final out. Manager Adams of the Tigers will use his two curve ball artists next Sunday when he crosses bats with the Strong Brightwood A. C. nine in a double header at Coles- ville.

The story tells in broad, virile, dramatic strokes of the life of a woman who has become the master of a slave ship just prior to the Civil War. From a gently nurtured and cultured belle of the gay city of New Orleans, she is shanghaied through the machinations of her husband aboard a hellship, with her baby left to the flames. Saved from a fate worse than death by a gallant sailor, she finally becomes the master of a slave trader and becomes known as the "Devil's Skipper." Tuesday is surprise night at 9 p.m. For Wednesday and Thursday the feature picture will be "Figures Don't Lie" with Esther Ralston. "Figures Don't Lie" is a type of picture there should be more of. Talent Thursday, three cash prizes. For Friday and Saturday the screen attraction will be "What Price Beauty" with Nita Naldi. What is the secret of what the French call the "fatal gift"? Nita Naldi demonstrates it. in "What Price Beauty." Story by Natacha Rambova (Mrs. Rudolph Valentino). Country store Saturday. Extra Sunday, 7 to 10, Black and White Synopators. REPUBLIC THEATRE For the week beginning Sunday, June 24, the Republic will present on the screen the surprise picture of the season "Sharp Shooters," featuring George O'Brien and Lois Moran. The plot of the story revolves around a little French dancer from Morocco and an American sailor. From Morocco, the story moves to the New York underworld, where the girl follows the sailor. There she falls into the clutches of a notorious bootleg king and it; then the sailor realizes his love for the little dancer. In a smash-up climax the sailor leads a gang of his bbdies to the dives and cleans up the entire outfit. With two such able stars as George O'Brien and Lois Moran heading the cast, "Sharp Shooters" is one of the most colorful pictures that has been shown in a long while. Remember Coffee Dan's, the night club where Al Jolson sang in "The Jazz Singer?" Well, Vitaphone has made an act entitled "A Night at Coffee Dan's" with all the night club atmosphere and entertainment that goes with it. You'll like this Vitaphone offering. This is only one of the Vitaphone acts to be shown for the week. Another is called "Non-Support," a dramatic playlet. The theme of the playlet deals with the divorce question and is a true excerpt from every day life. Rounding out this great Vitaphone bill is the act entitled "In a Monastery Cellar," featuring the Monastery Quartet. Among the numbers they sing is "The Rosary." This is one of the best all around bills that has been shown at the Republic this season, and early attendance is advised. HOWARD THEATRE playing at the Lincoln Theatre, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, June 24, 25, 26, 27 and 28. The grim horrors of war which formed the background of "The Big Parade" are lacking in "The Crowd," but there is a background of everyday struggle for every existence that is not as spectacular as war but every bit as interesting. There is no spectacular background of pomp—no booming of guns, no citations for bravery nor decorations for unusual feats upon the field. But there is the same desperate struggle against an implacable enemy—poverty. The picture does not put its reliance upon the great happenings of life but weaves a story of romance and struggle from the little everyday occurrences. Romance may pain the gallant officers who fought Indians on the Great Plains in glowing colors—dashing figures in blue on prancing steeds and all that sort of thing—but as a matter of fact they didn't shave often and they chewed tobacco. This is the cold fact that belies romance, as discovered in the reproduction of the history of the emman Trail and the carving of a gateway to the West in "The Bugle Call." Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's new Jackie Coogan feature, showing at the Lincoln, Friday and Saturday, June 29 and 30. This is an historical romance of the Great Plains with Jackie as a bugle boy in a cavalry post. Edward Sedgwick, who directed the picture, and Colonel George L. Byram, U.S.A., who handled the military detail, went to great lengths to make the picture historically correct—and the chewing tobacco (they called it 'eating to-lacco') and other details were duly reproduced in the story. Jackie Coogan appears in a role new to most of his fans—with a haircut. Claire Windsor plays the heroine of the new story, and Herbert Rawlinson plays as Jackie's father in the new play. In addition to the showing of "The Crowd," the patrons are invited, on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday only, to see and hear the latest news events synchronized with sound and voice on The Movietone. In conjunction with the showing of "The Crowd" and "The Bugle Call," a special non-synchronous music score has been arranged. In addition to the showing of the above mentioned pictures, the following acts will be seen and heard on the Vitaphone: "The Four Aristocrats," instrumental and vocal numbers accompanied by piano, ukelele, steel guitar and Spanish guitar. "Papa's Vacation," a comedy, with William Demarest. "Abe Lyman's Orchestra," syncopated symphony. Louis N. Brown, concert organist, will render an organ solo, "On Wings of Song," (Mendelssohn). The Lichtman Theatres are the only places of amusement in which non-synchronous equipment has been installed up to this time. By using this equipment, the patrons are assured of a full orchestra accompaniment with every feature picture. On Saturday, there will also be shown Universal Chapter play, "The Haunted Island," featuring Jack Daugherty. The management states that the new cooling system is now complete. The Lincoln is now among the coolest theatres in town. SUBURBAN GARDENS Suburban Gardens, at Fiftieth and Hayes streets, northeast, is going big. The open air act this week is a super-imposing sensation. High up atop a lofty structure this dare-devil Knight, astride a bicycle careers madly down a chute. Taking off at the end, he plunges 50 feet through space, alighting in a small tank of water. At night the tank is set on fire. This feature which has thrilled the crowds at the Garden this week may be seen tonight and Saturday night for the last times. Beginning Sunday night, Cedora, the girl who rides a motorcycle in THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE ero- robath- of in- and a large golden globe, will be the attraction. The warm nights of this week are bringing the crowds to the city's only Negro amusement park. For those who have automobiles, there is space for free parking. HOWARD THEATRE For the week beginning Monday matinee, June 24, the theatre-goers of Washington are privileged to see one of the greatest bills that has been presented at the Howard Theatre in many months. There will be three complete shows in one and it is hard to determine just which one is the outstanding attraction. However, the first unit will consist of Leonard Harper's "Oriental Revue," with a superb cast of colored stars, among whom are such favorites as Martha Copeland, the famous blues singer; George Williams, the clever and well-known comedian; Hilda Perlina, a native Washingtonian; also Andrew Tribble, Paul Sullivan, the eccentric dancer; Gregory and Toombs, B. Bradway's classy dancers, who will make their first Washington appearance at the Howard next week; James Redrick, the popular accordian soloist; Alveta Davis and May Diggs. The second unit will be presented by the Alhambra Dramatic Players and is entitled "Hall's Kitchen," and has a large cast of dramatic favorites including Susie Sutton, Charles Moore, Edna Barr, Billy Andrews, Tim Moseley, Charles Olden, Lillian Gillem and Harry Harris. "The third unit will be a feature photo play, "Slightly Used," starring May McAvey and Conrad Nagel and will be shown on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday only. A new May McAvey skips definitely through the screamingly funny situations of Warner Brothers' production of "Slightly Used," directed by Archie Mayo. As an elder sister, who hits upon the idea of a fictitious marriage to enable her younger sisters to marry, she starts a most amusing series of situations. "The Lovelorn" which will be shown at the Howard Theatre Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This Cosmopolitan production, which features Sally O'Neil and was produced for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, tells the vivid story of three members of the lovelorn and illustrates vividly the powerful influence on their lives by such persons as Beatrice Fairfax. Dorothy Cumming plays the part of Miss Fairfax. With the two pictures, there will be a special arrangement of a music score on the Non-synchonous machine. The regular Midnight Ramble will take place Friday night at 12:15, at which time the management assures the patrons two and one-half hours of wholesome amusement. DUNBAY THEATRE R. H. MURRAY, Mgr.
