Headquarters Men Testify
Lieutenants Harney and McQuade, summoned by Attorney Scott from police headquarters, testified that they had interviewed both Mrs. Miles and Mr. Miles, who had been arrested while Mr. Scott was at headquarters, and that while the man had had something to drink neither of the two showed signs of being drunk.
Officer Sanderson, called as a government witness when Mr. Scott declared that he felt the weight of evidence in favor of his clients was sufficient to exonerate them, turned out to be the star witness for the defense. In a loud, unafraid voice, he corroborated the entire story as told by Lawyer Scott, and concluded his testimony with the statement, "Never before, if your honor please, have I ignored such a challenge as was offered by Officer Comiskey. I did so simply because I was on duty and because he was a fellow officer."
After arguments of the prosecution and defense counsels, Judge Hitt said, "If things happened in the Fourth Precinct as have been testified to here, it is a disgrace to the District of Columbia. And considering the evidence, all the evidence, given here, for judgment as to whether or not these people are guilty of having been drunk and disorderly, I say no. The case is dismissed." It was a dramatic close to a dramatic case, and following the verdict of the judge, a crowded courtroom was literally emptied.

Charges of Drunk'ness and Disorderly Conduct Are Dismissed Against Clients
Jurist Declares That the Conditions in Precinct are Disgrace to D.C.
Two officers of the Fourth Police Precinct were openly criticized by Judge Isaac R. Hitt in police court, Wednesday, when prior to dismissing charges of drunkenness and disorderly conduct against Charles and Hattie Miles, 314 H street, southwest, the court deplored the conduct, last Saturday night, of Patrolman Melvin P. Creel and Motorcycle Policeman Joseph P. Comiskey, both white, for their alleged inhuman treatment of their prisoners as well as their utmost disregard of courtesy to Armond W. Scott, a member of the bar, and Walter B. Sanderson, a colored fellow officer.
Mr. Scott, who incidentally was counsel for the defendants, took the stand as a witness himself. He told the court how he had been called on the phone by Mrs. Miles and requested to come to her house that she might pay him some money on a back legal account. Having gone there and received the money, Lawyer Scott declared, he then went to the Fourth Precinct station house to see another client who had been arrested and was being held there.
Officers Calls Women
While waiting for the desk man to finish receiving messages from headquarters, Mr. Scott said, "Policeman Creel brought Mrs. Miles, whose home Mr. Scott had just left, in on a charge of intoxication. The officer, according to the lawyer, was cuffing the woman and handling her with excessive brutality. She was crying.
Mr. Scott said he spoke up and told Mrs. Miles that if she would stop crying he would see what he could do for her.
Creel, then, according to Attorney Scott, turned his prisoner loose and rushed at him with upraised night stick and told him if he did not keep his d—mouth shut he, Creel, would throw him in the cell too.

AOUIT BURNETT JURY IS OUT NINE HOURS
AOUIT BURNETT JURY IS OUT NINE HOURS
Play Upon Race Prejudice is Made Throughout the Trial
WILMINGTON, N.C., Aug. 18.
—Dr. Foster Burnett, a physician and specialist and directing head of Community Hospital was acquitted by a jury in superior court here last Thursday for the murder of his wife Mrs. Gladys Burnett.
The jury deliberated nine hours before returning its verdict of not guilty, freeing Dr. Burnett.
Burnett stated that he expects to continue the practice of medicine here.
In the closing argument Solicitor Woodus Kellum attacked Burnett's plea of self-defense and recalled the testimony of witnesses who testified that they saw no gun besides Mrs. Burnett's body when they viewed it first after having been attracted to the Burnetts' home by pistol shots. He argued that her killing was cold-blooded murder.
Prejudice Apparent
L. Clayton Grant, who was associated with the law firm of Bellamy and Bellamy in the defense of Dr. Burnett, closed for the defense. He attacked the veracity of the state's witnesses.
A play upon race prejudice ran all through the trial. One of the high moments came when John Belden, a publisher, admitted under cross-examination that R. McCants Andrews, a lawyer, of Durham, had tried to raise funds here "for the purpose of preventing infringement of Negroes' rights by white people." Attorney Grant was seeking to show that Belden was not to be believed.
Another high moment was when Judge B. H. Cramer, who presided at the trial, forced Mrs. Vernet Chandler, wife of Dr. Chandler, to add "sir" to her answers to questions. During her testimony, Mr. Grant asked her if her demeanor on the witness stand was natural or was she trying to be smart.
Dr. Burnett killed his wife July 2, shooting her to death in their home.
AL SMITH CLUB GETS NEW MEMBERS

Smith Independent Republican Club met at the Welfare Cafeteria, 638 D street, northwest, Thursday evening, August 2, at which time several new members were admitted, among whom were Attorney John H.

Porter were also admitted to membership. Minutes of the last meeting were read by H. A. Dyson. The chairman reported several letters and conferences with Al Smith headquarters in New York. Definite plans were outlined and adopted for the coming campaign in the surrounding states.

Funeral services were held yesterday (Thursday) for Robert Travis Brady, four-year-old son of Dr. St. Elmo Brady, head of the department of chemistry at Howard University, who died at Garfield Hospital, Monday night as result of injuries he sustained when he was knocked down by an automobile that morning. The services were held from the home of his parents, 2603 Eleventh street, northwest. Mrs. Helen V. Clark, white, 5400 Seventh street, northhwest, the driver of the car which struck the child, was exonerated when witnesses testified at the coworker's inquest, Tuesday, that he had run from behind a parked automobile in front of 2615 Thirteenth street, northwest, directly into the path of the automobile. Young Brady was rushed to the hospital in the car of Albert A. Lingle, white, 19 Grant avenue, Takoma Park, D.C. The accident occurred at 10:10 a.m. The lad died at 7:30 p.m.

LOCAL RACE GIRL GETS BIG CHANCE TO SUBSTITUTE IN MOVIES FOR FARINA
ESCAPES FROM POLICE ON WAY TO PRISON VAN
Slipping his handcuffs while being led, with other prisoners, to the van to be carried to the District Jail, Harry M. Brooks, 1531 Kingman place, northwest, escaped and darted out of the alley behind the police court unnoticed. Tuesday, and had turned into Sixth street before court attendants and by-standing policemen started in vain pursuit. Brooks had just been sentenced by Judge Robert E. Mattingly to serve 900 days for assaulting Martha Webb and threatening the lives of Mollie Packard and Helen Lee, all of the same Kingman place address.
Declaring that Brooks was a man whom no one could live with and yet anyone would be afraid to leave, Miss Webb showed the court two very much blackened eyes, which she said the man had given her when she attempted to leave the Kingman place house, last Thursday. She said she had packed her trunk and was about to vacate the house when he came in, and seeing her intention attacked her. Miss Webb testified that on several occasions Brooks had told her if she left him he would "hunt her like a rat, and if needs be, toast in the electric chair" when he found her.
Mollie Packard, with whom the couple had roomed, and Helen Lee, another roomer, also testified that Brooks had threatened to kill them if they did not attend to their own business.
Judge Mattingly imposed a sentence of one year, and $500, or another year, and $500 or six months.
On the way to the van, Brooks escaped.

northwest. Mr. Sanford died at his residence, 1316 U street, northwest, after an illness of about two weeks.
Born in Raleigh, N.C., June 2, 1873, Mr. Sanford came to this city more than 35 years ago and had resided here ever since.
At the time of his death, Mr. Sanford was employed as a clerk in the United States Post Office department in which department he had been employed since 1898. With the opening of the Republic Theatre, May 30, 1921, Mr. Sanford was employed as doorman. A year later he was promoted to the position of manager of the house.
He was a member of Columbia Lodge, No. 85, Improved Benevolent Protective Order of Elks of the World, and also of Prince Hall Lodge, Grand United Order of Odd Fellows.
Mr. Sanford is survived by his wife, Mrs. Lucy J. Sanford; two sisters, Mrs. Maggie Harris, Raleigh, N.C., and Mrs. Edna Bradford, Asbury Park, N.J.; and one brother, James Sanford, of Bricks, N.C.

"Gooseneck Bill" McDonald Declares Hoover Machine Fights Negroes
WILL SUPPORT SMITH
Select States Having Colored Leaders for Patronage Investigation
In a letter to Robert R. Church, political leader, of Memphis, Tenn., William M. (Gooseneck Bill) McDonald, of Ft. Worth, Texas, charges the Hoover organization with color discrimination in the indictment of Perry W. Howard, Republican national committeeman for Mississippi and suspended special assistant to the Attorney General.
Mr. McDonald renounced allegiance to the Republican party following the Kansas City convention. He was a member of the contesting delegation from Texas headed by Representative Harry M. Wurzbach, the only Republican in Congress from that state. This delegation was opposed to the nomination of Herbert Hoover. They were denied convention seats.
According to the Hoover viewpoint, says Mr. McDonald, the crime is not in the selling of public offices but in who does the selling. He begins his letter by a scathing attack on colored delegates to the Republican national convention who voted against the seating of the Wurzbach "black and tan" delegation and in favor of the "illy white" delegation headed by R. B. Creager, Republican national committee for Texas.

He named Benjamin Jefferson Davis, who was the Republican national committee for Georgia until the Kansas City convention, and Perry W. Howard. John R. Hawkins, who is to manage the Hawkins campaign among colored voters, also voted against the Wurzbach-McDonald delegation.
"I knew your position at Kansas City," he wrote Mr. Church. "You have never subordinated the welfare of the race to your personal interest. This cannot be said of many so-called race leaders who would sacrifice the Christ if he (Continued on page 8)

3 SCHOOL BOYS ARRESTED FOR JOY-RIDING
Arrested in Va. are Held on $1,000 Bond. Second Offense for Two
Three boys, ranging from 16 to 18 years of age, two of them local high school students and the third a graduate in the 1928 class, were ordered held under $1,000 bond each, on charges of joy riding for the action of the grand jury.
The boys, all from well known and highly respected families, were apprehended, last Sunday morning at Fairfax, Va., by Virginia police authorities who had been given a lookout for the stolen car in which they were riding. They were brought back to this city, Sunday night by Headquarters Detectives Brodie and Varney.
Two of the boys arrested were in the same predicament little over a year ago when they were arrested with two others, one of which is now in jail for the same offense. They escaped punishment on that occasion due to the fact that they were of juvenile age.
INQUEST TESTIMONY IS SHATTERED BY WOMAN
One woman, Jesse Sterling, 307 Virginia avenue, southwest, completely upset all tendencies of a coroner's jury, to free Silas Carter, 34, 325 G street, southwest, at an inquest into the death, Sunday, of Ruth Lewis, $321\frac{1}{2}$ Virginia avenue, southwest.
Shattering an apparent iron-clad defense built around the testimony of three witnesses that the shooting was accidental, Mrs. Sterling declared that Carter had told her immediately after the shooting that Miss Lewis had intended to shoot him, and that he took the gun away from her and killed her.
Three witnesses had previously taken the stand and testified that they believed Miss Lewis was shot while Carter was cleaning his revolver, and it was generally believed that the man would be exonerated.
Mrs. Sterling gave a different version, and in addition, declared that Carter had prompted her as to what she was to say at the inquest, but that she refused to abide by his orders.
The jury ordered that Carter be held for the action of the grand jury.
Stockholders Object to New Bldg. for Odd Fellows
The proposal for the erection of a new home for the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, at the southeast corner of Twelfth and U streets, northwest, has been rejected by the stockholders of the Odd Fellows Hall Association, it was learned today. Approximately 75 per cent of the stockholders voted against the proposition. It is understood that the proposed hall, which was to be a four-story brick structure, fronting 100 feet on U street, and 60 feet on Twelfth street, involved a consideration of about $230,000.
The stockholders also rejected an offer of $25,200 in cash for the property now owned by the order on M street between Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets, northwest, and indicated that they would be willing to dispose of the property for the sum of $300,000. The Odd Fellows now own, in addition to the large hall, four frame houses adjoining the hall and three brick structures in the alley in the rear of the hall.

Pandemonium Breaks Loose after Woman Assistant Att'y Gen'l Leaves
Seen as Another Blunder of Campaign Comm. in Dealing with Negroes
The National League of Colored Women's Republican Clubs, which met here last Saturday, at the Y. W.C.A., was thrown into wild disorder as a result of a speech delivered before them by Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, assistant attorney general.
Mrs. Willebrandt addressed the body at its morning session along with several other speakers who were sent by the national republican headquarters. As her speech came so close to noon recess, the women delegates were not able to voice their disapproval at being addressed by Mrs. Willebrandt, so the full force of their fury broke loose immediately after the afternoon session began.
There was much wrangling over how the instigator of the Perry Howard trouble got on the program. Miss Nannle H. Burroughs, who presided at the meeting, stated that when she called at the Republican headquarters and asked for speakers, she told them not to send Mrs. Willebrandt, nor any speaker who would come and refer to the women as "you people." Mrs. Daisy Lampkins, of Pittsburgh, Pa. who was also on the committee, stated that she was as much surprised when Mrs. Willebrandt came in as was the rest of the delegates, because she did not know that she was to be present.
Sent by Georgian
While it was not clearly brought out how the feminine assistant attorney, general came to be invited, many of the delegates placed the blame of Mrs. Georgia Williams, national committeewoman from Georgia. Mrs. Burroughs stated that she did not know Mrs. Willebrandt was coming until told so by Mrs. Williams.
Many fervent speeches were made denouncing Mrs. Willebrandt and the action of the Republican party in sending her into Mississippi. Three propositions were put forth: First, that a committee be appointed to telephone Mrs. Willebrandt and ask her to return to the Y.W.C.A., for an explanation of her actions; second, that a letter be sent to her informing her of the views of the women; third, that a delegation be appointed to call on her and inform her of the views of the women.
The first proposition was carried amidst much confusion; Miss Burroughs being utterly unable to maintain order. During the motion-making and unreadiness, Mrs. Ora Brown Stokes, of Richmond, Va.; Mrs. Blauce Beatty, of Tampa, Fla.; Mrs. Lethia Fleming, of Cleveland, Ohio, and Mrs. Daisy Lampkins, of Pittsburgh, Pa., all made speeches on one side or the other of the question.
Mrs. Fleming was made, chairman of the committee to call Mrs. Willebrandt and ask her to return to the meeting. This call, however, was never made.
After much more speechmaking, it was finally decided to accept the second proposition and send a letter. A committee composed of Mrs. Ora Brown Stokes, chairman; Mrs. Blauce Beatty, and Mrs. Sarah Pelham Speeks, was appointed to draft the letter. The letter was presented to the women at the night session for approval. It was

P. Abbott, pastor, with Rev. B. F.
Whitting, pastor of the Eiendphip
Baptist Church of this city, preach.
ing the closing sermon.
This closing session was marked
by the reports of various officers of
the conference, the most interest-
ing one being that of the historian,
Rev. J. A. Le Washington. In this
Teport it was pointed out that
Washington holds a United States
record for long term pastors, there
being twenty-two ministers here
who have pastored one church more
than fifteen years, with one minis-
ter having pastored a single church
forty-seven years. The recent
merger of the Baptist bodies of the
District was cited as the greatest
single accomplishment within the
denomination in Washington for
the past year. The historical re-
Port was ordered printed.
Upon motion by Rev. A. Sayles,
the conference voted overwhelm-
ingly to reconvene at the Florida
Avenue Baptist Church, Rev. W. A.
Taylor, pastor. in September, this
to be the conference's permanent
place of meeting. Thus the con-
ference moves from the Metropoli-
tan Baptist Church, where it has
held its weekly sessions for twelve
years. Some members of the body
argued that the time was psycho-
logically and morally inopportune
for such a move, but the motion
finally prevailed after Jong and
heated debate.
MINISTER DENIES VAL.
IDITY OF MERGER
Rev. S. G. Lampkins, exhibit-
ing some form of alleged legal doc-
ument upon the floor of the Bap-
tist Ministers’ Conference on last
Monday, militantly denied the val-
idity of’ the recent merger of ‘the
three Baptist conventions of the
District, and defied the conference
to include this merger as a pal
the conference's yearly historical
Teport which it voted to have pub-
lished. “Rev. Lampkins bases. his
contention upon the alleged fact
that the Mt. Bethel Baptist Con-
vention, one of the bodies merg-
ered, was (and still is) an incor-
Porated body, and as such could not
desolve itself or merge with an-
other body by vote. Rey. Lampkins
threatened to go to the local white
Papers and indicated that he would
o to court should the conference
through its historian publish as a
fact the merger of the conventions
in question. “According to the vote
taken by the conferences the al-
fact of the merger will be
ished.

beginning of a new era of higher,
better and more effcient standards
among the Negro business estab-

its growing business demands. Lo-
cated therein is the Thomas W.

LEGAL NOTICES
But the "illy white" committee appointed by Mr. Mann will not function in Georgia, according to representatives of the regular Republican state organization. Mr. Mann had previously approved a campaign committee composed of both races which had been appointed by the state central committee. This committee, these representatives say, will run the Hoover campaign in Georgia irrespective of any long distance actions of Mr. Mann.
Y. W. BUYS NEW CAMP SITE AT HIGHLAND BEACH
Happy times are in store next year for the youthful members of Phyllis Wheatley Y.W.C.A., 901 Rhode Island avenue, northwest, according to an announcement of Mrs. Robert G. McGuire, chairman of the camp committee, who states that a new camp site for the girls' summer camp has been purchased near Highland Beach, Md., at a nominal cost of $1525. The new site comprises about three acres of beautiful wooded land in what is known as Black Walnut Creek. on the Gross tract, and can be developed, it is said into an ideal summer camp for girls.
The camp committee is working faithfully to carry this project forward to a successful conclusion and thereby offer to the girls of Washington, Baltimore, Annapolis, Alexandria, and other neighboring vicinities an ideal camp, competently managed by trained supervisors, and affording bathing, boating, fishing and all the principal out-door sports of healthful and recreational tendencies for girls.
To Build Early
New buildings are expected to be ready early next year, together with an administration building and sleeping quarters, for the erection of which the committee is diligently striving at this time. In the meantime the present camp is open to reputable girls of this and neighboring vicinities, who are invited to file application for admission with the "Y" secretary at 901 Rhode Island avenue, northwest.
The public-spirited committee which is aiding Mrs. McGuire is composed of Mrs. Robert B. Wilson, Mrs. Mortimer M. Harris, Mrs. Burton G. Robinson Mrs. Jesse Foster, Mrs. William H. Wilson, Mrs. Sumner Shisholm, Mrs. Addison Scurlock, Mrs. Hartford Burwell, Mrs. Richard Lewis, Mrs. De Witt Perkinson, Mrs. Jesse Powell, Mrs. Louise Haves, Mrs. Ida F. Alexander, Miss Lillian Curry, Miss Vivian Pelham, Miss Ardella Parks, Mrs. Eugene Clark and Mrs. Glover.
"The committee is grateful to the general public which has contributed generously with supplies, equipment and finance; and asks that this sympathetic interest be continued until the project is in actual operation," assorted Mrs. McGuire.

WIFE SURPRISED WHEN CARRIED TO HOSPITAL
Spirited away from home by her husband, Dr. Edwin J. Watson, of 404 M street, northwest, Mrs. Mabel L. Watson, of the same address, was taken on Friday, August 8, about 8:30 p.m., to Gallinger Hospital where she was committed for mental observation. Mrs. Watson was ignorant of her husband's intentions when she agreed to go riding with him, in his automobile, and she was on the verge of collapsing when she was separated from her four-year-old child and forced to enter an insane ward. Mrs. Watson, who is now at liberty after spending nearly five days of torture among lunatics, says that she had taken rides with her husband on the two previous nights. They had had differences, but apparently their troubles had been patched up, as they had many times before.
On this occasion, Dr. Watson drove out M street to New Jersey avenue, about a block away, where he stopped and opened the car door for a white policeman, who seated himself beside him. The officer told Dr. Watson that a policeman in

Northeast wanted to see him and that he must go with him.
Was Not Suspicious
Mrs. Watson, who was riding in the back with her child, said that she did not become suspicious at this time, as her husband had stopped at a stop sign.
Dr. Watson then drove out Florida avenue to Fourteenth street, northeast, where he turned right and proceeded toward southeast. When her husband began inquiring directions from the officer and the car approached the sparcely populated section about Gallinger, Mrs. Watson became disturbed. She asked her husband where he was going, but he made no reply.
Dr. Watson followed the policeman's directions, stopping at the main office of the hospital, where he left his wife in charge of the policeman, while he went inside to have her committed as insane.
Found to be Sane
When the doctor emerged, he drove to another building on the grounds, where his wife was taken by force and carried to an insane ward. Here she was separated from her child, stripped of her belongings, and shut off from the outside world.

Former W. &
Offered Jo
Sought as Successor to Lou
Include Director
It was announced following a meeting of the Howard University Board of Athletic Control, last Friday, that Dr. Charles West, former star athlete of Washington and Jefferson College, and a member of the 1928 Howard medical school graduating class, had been offered the position as head coach of football at Howard University. The offer does not carry with it the position as head of the department of physical education. Dr. West, it was learned, was offered the job at the same time that the university officials made Charles R. Drew, former Amherst athlete and ex-coach at Morgan College, a similar offer.
In the event that Dr. West accepts the post, it is expected that he will install the Washington and Jefferson system. While a student at the Pennsylvania school, Dr. West became nationally known through his achievements in track and grid sports. Besides winning the pentathlon event at the University of Pennsylvania Relay Carnival, where the cream of the country's college athletes perform, Dr. West enjoys the distinction of being the only Negro ever to lead a white college football team in the annual tournament of Roses game against the University of California in 1922. In that game, Dr. West played at half back and called signals in the absence of Quarterback Erickson, the team's captain. Dr. West was at one time, an aide to Coach Louis L. Watson, to whom he is sought as a successor. In 1925, however, following a difference of opinion between the two, Dr. West quit.

OVER FORESTVILLE
IVY CITY—With Stump Allen hurling masterful ball, and his Togan teammates inserting safe blows where they were most needed, Webb Lee's Ivy City crew emerged with a 4-2 decision over the Forestville A.C., here last Sunday.
Besides fanning 7 Forestvilleans with his teasing slow twisters, Allen held the opposing battles to 3 lone bingles. One of these was for the circuit.
A double play, started by the local pitcher aided his cause materially.**

BLACK BARONS FORFEIT USING ILLEGAL MAN
The Black Baron-Forestville A.C. baseball game, played last Sunday at Ivy City and won by the former will be forfeited to the Forestville team on grounds that the Barons used an ineligible player. Brown, whose name has been sent in by the Baron management, as the third baseman in that game, is ineligible in view of the fact that his name does not appear on the complete club roster which was turned over to league officials, July 16.

The Anacostians, smarting under their defeat at the hands of the Hillsdales last Sunday which defeat knocked them from their position on top of the league, will take the field with blood in their eyes. The Orientals, because of their mediocre record for the season will also be "ready to roast," hence the contest should be a red hot one, chock full of thrills.

THE SPORT REVIEW
Bordentown Ready for National Championship
BORDENTOWN, N.J.—Bordentown is ready for the National Tennis Championships which are slated for the courts, here, August 20-25, inclusive.
The American Tennis Association for the second time in three years selected these New Jersey courts for the scene of the battle.
The Bordentown Manual Training School on whose courts the matches will be played, will also extend the use of its dormitories and dining halls to the players. The beautiful grounds of the State school will furnish an ideal background for what has become the most attractive sports event promoted by colored people anywhere in the country. Reservations are daily pouring in from all over the country, and players have announced the intention of coming from states as far distant as Georgia and California.
Extension Worker L. B. Granger of the Bordentown School staff, is in charge of local arrangements, which include an attractive social program for the benefit of visitors, and for the players who are eliminated in the early rounds.

COLESVILLE TIGERS WIN ANOTHER GAME
COLESVILLE, Md—The Colesville Tigers continued their winning streak by defeating for the second time this season their well known rivals, the Colesville Lions, by a score of 9-7, here last Sunday.
Louis Hill, new and speedy twirler for the Tigers pitched a great game until the fifth inning when he was replaced by "Smoke Ball" Frazier, the old master, who gave the "Braxton Boys" the jolt of their lives.
Next Sunday, on Bailey's Diamonds, at Colesville, Md., the Colesville Tigers will cross bats with the fast Myrtles A.C. of Washington at 3 o'clock.
Lefty Jackson, the boy with the mean twister, will probably receive the call from the "bull pen" for the Tigers.

WATSON GOES TO BORD'NT'WN AS COMMANDANT
Will Assume New Duties With Opening of School
Term
BORDENTOWN, N.J.—Louis L. Watson, former head coach of football and track, and director of physical education at Howard University, has been named as Commandant of Boys and Athletic Director at the Bordentown Military Training and Industrial School, here, it was announced Tuesday.
Mr. Watson accepted the terms of the New Jersey school immediately after turning down the offer of Howard University authorities, last week. The Howard offer was for an indefinite period, and followed four years of successful work as head of the athletic department at the Washington school.
Mr. Watson is a graduate of the Howard University and Springfield College Y.M.C.A. Having coached football for three years at the Virginia Normal and Industrial School and a year prior to his four-year mat ter Howard, the new commandant can boast of a wealth of experience.
Mr. Watson will assume the duties as commandant, on September 1, with the beginning of preparatory work for school opening.
PA, JUDGE ORD'RS NEGRO GOLFERS REINSTATED Show Sportsmanship by Resigning After Re-instatement
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—Through Judge Raymond MacNeille, the United States Golf Association was notified last Saturday to either stop play in the National Public Links Championships played here last week, or reinstate Elmer Stout and Robert Ball, Negro golfers, who were disqualified for alleged infractions of the rules. At the time the tourney was just nearing its close. Stout, who hails from Newark, N.J., and Ball, who boasts of the Windy City as his home town, sought protection from the apparent discrimination through the courts.
Judge MacNeillle ruled that while there was no evidence of prejudice on the part of the officials, there also was insufficient evidence that Stout had illegally dropped a ball on the fourth hole of his qualifying round or that Ball had certified to a lower score than he actually made, as the officials had claimed. The judge then ordered them reinstated.
Avoid Embarrassment
The rest of the story as Walter Trumbull, a white writer of the North American Newspaper Alliance, puts it, goes thus:
"Then Ball, a slender, dark butcher from Chicago, and Stout, the stock, light landscape gardener from Newark, advised by some of the ablest men of their race, proved that sportsmanship is not a matter of any one creed or color.
"They declared that vindication and justice were the things for which they had fought, and that having been obtained, they had no desire further to embarrass the golf authorities or to interfere with the progress of the tournament, thus punishing innocent players who had already won matches. Having established their right to play in the tournament for which their entries had been accepted, they retired voluntarily from competition."

BROOKLAND—The long lanky form of Slim Henderson, converted pitcher of the Hillsdale A.C., hovered over the diamond here last Sunday afternoon, and mastered the situation, as the league leading Anacostia Athletics were pushed off their perch at the head of the Washington Tribune Baseball League. The east end team was conquered by a score of 12-7. Though they got off to a very poor start as the Anacostias tallied 8 times in the opening frame, the Hillsdale crew fought a game uphill battle which culminated in the counting of 7 runs in the sixth inning to completely demoralize the league leaders.
Shufflin Stewart opened the contest for the A's and showed well until the sixth. This inning proved to be a nightmare to both Stewart and Beverly who relieved him.

COOK DEFEATS BRIGGS IN
DUAL MEET
Cook scored victory over Briggs in a dual playground meet, Monday, August 6, on the formers' grounds. The final point score stood: Cook, 72; Briggs, 54. Under the direction of Jerry Adams with a nucleus of Shaw and Armstrong athletes, Cook met stern opposition from Coach "Turk" Sewell's lads in the running events. Sewell's team was made up largely of Francis Junior High School boys. Refreshments for the victors were served by Mrs. Nellie Smith of Cook after the meet.
TO THE PUBLIC
Columbian Harmony Society wishes to deny any intention of either closing or removing Harmony Cemetery. On the contrary immediate steps are being taken to beautify the grounds and buildings, modernizing the equipment and methods, and thus retain and increase "Harmony's" place in the affections of the Washington people.

BROOKLAND—Held to only 5 hits, none of which came in the same inning, Pee Wee Sheppard's Class B leading Piedmont nine, was toppled from the uppermost berth of its section by Jelly Jackson and the Washington Pirates in the best game of the season, here last Sunday. The score was 3-1.
Jackson, along with Sealey Dede proved the nemesis of the Piedmont clan. The former covered the shortfield duel superb style, accepting 7 difficult chances with but one bobble, and the latter literally blinded the Piedmont batters with his lightning fast ball and deceptive change of pace. Each had much to do with the Pirate victory.
CHARLESTON, W. Va., Aug. 10. Bringing to a close on Friday its twenty-fifth annual convention, a spirited and successful meeting, the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools named President John W. Davis of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute its standard bearer for the ensuing year, to succeed President W. J. Hale of the Tennessee State College.
Practically every vital situation affecting Negro teachers and schools was treated in the joint and sectional meetings. The Association's new platform includes very definite objectives and methods for its departmental committees on college, high school, elementary, rural, health and agricultural education, school supervision and trade and commerce. A new note was struck in college education by Dr. Mordecai Johnson, president of Howard University, when he insisted that the Negro college professor should teach a pure science but with the enthusiasm and thoroughness to make it practical and vigorous.
Earnest, serious thought and debate were given the socio-economic-agricultural problem. It was agreed that the Negro's present economic condition threatens a social upheaval and constitutes a virtual crisis. The potent forces of Negro education commanded by the N.A.T.C.S. resolved to attack the damaging causes of this condition without further delay. The Institute Service Plan of Education was the Institute's contributive suggestion on this problem. The outing to Malden, West Virginia, the childhood home of Booker T. Washington on Friday afternoon following the business session was the final event of the meeting.

Negro Wins Prize Race In Olympic Games
Just when the experts had conceded that Finland was the natural home of marathon-champions, due to extensive training and a herring and black bread diet, a little Algerian Arab with the euphonious name of El Ouah makes all Nordics look foolish by running away from them at Amsterdam.
Following him is a Chilean (despite the fact that Chile is not on the athletic map) who runs the Finns, Americans, and Canadians ragged. Evidently the production of athletic champions is not due to race, climate, education, food habits or so-called "expert" advice. When Finland began to win nearly all of these distance runs we were told that the rugged, cold, snappy climate of Finland was best for distance runners. But the new champion claims the desert as his home, and his great rival, rainless Chile.
If you doubt me, or have not heard of these two flying stars, let us see what Thomas F. Topping, a sport writer at the Olympic games says in an Associated Press dispatch:
"OLYMPIC STADIUM, Amsterdam, Aug. 5(AP)—El Ouafi, little, brown, narrow-chested, spindle-legged Arab from Algeria and Morocco who came to the rescue of his mother country and captured the marathon, blue ribbon of the 1928 Olympic, for France after all her other sons had failed, sauntered into the dressing room after his victory, breathing normally, and with not so much as a single head of sweat showing on his face.
"The last fifty yards from the finish line to the dressing room were the hardest,' he said in his broken French to officials who crowded around him, hugging him enthusiastically. A fatalistic Arab El-Ouafi never even smiled.
"I've seen worse weather in the Moroccan desert—it was rather cold today,' said the Olympic winner accustomed to temperatures around 100 in the shade when carrying despatches for the French army in the war against Abd El Krim in 1926. Distances were not restricted to 26 miles 385 yards then.
"Then they gave him his first drink since he started the grind that brought him victory, a little milk cut with one-third water. It is the strange irony of destiny that the only athlete who won for France shuns her wines, drinks nothing but milk and water and is a vegetarian.

MONUMENT 6.—Two Brookland Giant pitchers shared in turning in the season's first no-hit game, as the Washington Blue Sox nine, recent conquerors of the crack Monarch Club, were turned upside down under an 8-1 trimming, here last Sunday.
Boots Kenney and Tom McIntyle hurled 5 and 4 innings, respectively, of hitless ball while their teammates were pounding out an even dozen safeties for 8 hits.
The only base on balls offered by the Giant hurlers was turned into a run.**

THE FLEET ARAB
By "Jerry" Adams
Not Like Desert
Told to Watch Finna
SUNDAY
FIVE
"I had been told to watch the Finnis, so I kept my eye on Maitelin,' the Arab observed. 'I thought the Japanese were going too fast and would drop back. When I saw Maitelinen running slower I just kept on a little faster.'
Asks for Cigarette
"El-Ouafi found the task of receiving congratulations from officials and brother athletes more strenuous than the marathon. Beads of perspiration began breaking under his eyes until he finally realized that he hadn't had a chance yet to sit down. So he stretched out for a rub down and asked for a cigarette.
"He deserves it," shouted Frantz Reichel, general secretary of the French Olympic committee, "give him one."
"El-Ouafi was bor nat Ouled El-Cadan, near Biskra, Algeria. He spent his early years at Sidi Del Abbes, home of the French Foreign Legion, where he ran errands for the soldiers. Later he moved to Oudja, Morocco, where the peace conference of Spain and France with Abd El Krim's Rifillans was held in 1926.
Carried Despatches on Foot
"When war was decided upon he joined the motor cycle corps but after the campaign had reached the mountains of the Riff range, motor cycles were discarded. Most of the despatches then were carried from Division General Marty—to whose command El-Ouafi belonged—to headquarters at Paza on foot. "El-Ouafi now works in a large automobile factory in Paris. He is 29 years old and has been running in competition in Paris, Algeria and Morocco since the armistice. He never before won a big race and his victory today was as big a surprise to the French as to any other country entered in the marathon.
Not Interested in Time
"Other Marathoners were coming into the dressing room, most of them staggering, some of them looking more dead than alive and collapsing upon their entrance. All of them were gasping for breath but none the less curious about their individual times.
"El-Ouafi, however, did not appear to be interested in the slightest in his own time, not even when he was told he had run the second fastest. Marathon in history.
"That's enough,' he told Lucien Avocat, expert masseur for the French bicycle riders who had been giving him a rubdown. The Arab jumped up, dressed hurriedly and cauntered out into the stadium grounds, appearing rather as if he was about to start a Marathon race than to have just finished one of the most gruelling in Olympic history."

REPUBLIC THEATRE

"Hangman's House" is a dramatic story woven around the love of a girl for her father. McLaglen has the role of a soldier of the Foreign Legion on leave to avenge his family honor. "Hangman's House" is one of the greatest dramatic pictures ever made.

Mystery is the keynote blended with a strong love theme. The story moves swiftly and powerfully to a highly dramatic conclusion.

LINCOLN THEATRE
Ramon Navarro, hero of "The Student Prince," "Ben Hur" and many other screen plays, comes to the Lincoln Theatre, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday in his latest screen success, "Across to Singapore." The new Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production, directed by William Nigh, is a dramatic romance of the high seas, laid aboard the old clipper ships, New England and the mysterious Orient. Novarro plays a young sailor, one of three sea-going brothers.
who, in an amazing tangle of love and adventure, figures in desperate runs across the Pacific, mutiny and other graphic details incidental to a charming love story.
A notable cast supports the star, Joan Crawford, heroine of "West Point." "Spring Fever" and "Twelve Miles Out," the heroine of the new sea drama. Ernest Torrence, Edward Connally, Frank Currier, James Mason, Dan Wolheim, Duke Martin, Anna May Wong and others of note are in the cast.
Much of the picture was taken aboard the famous old clipper "Narwahl," which sailed for several weeks on a Pacific cruise, during which the sea action, including a terrific storm, a mutiny and an attack by Oriental gangsters and pirates was filmed. The Singapore scenes are elaborate, including a famous resort of sailors in the "melting pot of the Orient," in which practically every nationality on the face of the earth is seen. The entire firm has been staged on an impressive scale, whole villages having been erected for some of the many spectacular scenes. These large and authentic settings add immeasurably to the realism and fascination of the film.
The romantic histories of famous diamonds, from the time of the fabled Golconda to the modern Hope diamond, with its trail of intrigue, tragedy and mystery, formed the strange research for one of the most remarkable screen plays of the year, "Diamond Hand-cuffs," Cosmopolitan's gripping new drama of love, diamonds and the underworld, which will be shown at the Lincoln Theatre, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
The cast is notable, including Eleanor Boardman, Conrad Nagel, Lawrence Gray, Gwen Lee, Lena Malena, Sand Hardy, John Roche, Charles Stevens, George Cooper, Lew Harvey and many others.

That Baby You've Longed For
Mrs. Burton Advises Women on Motherhood and Companionship
"For several years I was denied the blessing of motherhood," writes Mrs. Marbert Burton of Kansas City. "I was terrified, nervous and subject to periods of terrible illness. I will not be alone. I am the proud mother of a beautiful little daughter and a true companion and inspiration to my husband. I believe hundreds of other women would like to know how I will gladly reveal it to any married woman who will write me." Mrs. Burton offers her advice entirely without charge. She has nothing to sell. Letters should be adorned with flowers. Massachusetts, Kansas City, Mo. Correspondence will be strictly confidential.

I didn't want to get behind my classes, and yet it was an effort to keep going.

Klan, he declared in a signed statement Sunday.
Referring to the organization of a "colored voters' division" in the Republican campaign headquarters, Mr. Clarke said that "if the Republican leaders between campaigns would give one-tenth as much attention to the colored voter as they so ostentationally exhibit upon the eve of the greatest political struggle since 1896, their sincerity and good faith might not be questioned."
He added that "there are 15,000-000 colored people within the United States, nearly three times as many people as compose the present Austrian nation since its dismemberment. They are contributing their share in the productive power of the United States, and yet the Republican leaders have so manipulated the political situation that they have "jockeyed" every colored man in the nation out of individual political power. There isn't a single one left with anything like the power formerly exerted by Frederick Douglass, B. K. Bruce and Booker T. Washington.

"A Republican Senate," he declared, "refused to confirm Walter Cohen, of Louisiana, and had it not been for Robert M. La Follette, the Progressive, and David I. Walsh, Democratic Senator of Massachusetts, Mr. Cohen's name would have been rejected for the third time. "Senator Walsh got on a train and traveled 600 miles to reach the Senate in time to put over Mr. Cohen's confirmation, while Republican Senators stood by and cynically voted against him. Mr. Cohen is the last colored Republican in the South holding a distinguished political appointment.
"I wish furthermore to say that the late Chief Justice White, of the Supreme Court of the United States, himself a Southern Democrat, gave colored America its first judicial victories before that tribunal. From the Dred Scott case to the appointment of Mr. Justice White, all of our cases were lost before that tribunal and we did not begin to get favorable decisions until this great jurist appeared in

Republican Humbuggery
"I intend to support in this campaign the most brilliant gubernatorial officer in America—Alfred E. Smith, for three reasons:
"(a) I am tired of Republican humbuggery.
"(b) Governor Smith has given the Nation a clear-cut referendum on the prohibition folly.
"(c) His election will give no encouragement to the gallant gentlemen of the Klan."
Mr. Clarke is a veteran of the Spanish-American War, in which he served as a lieutenant. He is a lawyer by training and a good debater. It is probable that he will speak for Governor Smith in this campaign. In the last campaign, Mr. Clark supported the late Senator Robert M. La Follette.
CHURCH VICTORIOUS IN TENN. PRIMARY
MEMPHIS, Tenn., Aug. 9.—Robert R. Church held his grip on the political situation in Shelby County when his slate for the Republican state committee was victorious over the lily-wites in the election here August 4.
Mr. Church, Mrs. L. N. Geldert, Mrs. Dave Hanover and J. S. Shortle were elected members of the Republican state committee over the opposition ticket of the lily whites. The vote was between 2,000 and 3,000, and the Church group was victorious by a large majority.
United States Commission Lester H. Brenner, a Church adherent, would not supply primary boxes in the precincts where they were strong, the lily-wites charged, but confined his distribution of boxes to men he had appointed for use in the wards where Negro voters were strong.
Many boxes were given to colored men the night before, the lily-white leaders say. Colored men came to the polls early on election day, bringing the boxes with them, they charge.
FILES CROSS BILL IN SUIT FOR DIVORCE
Through Attorney Peter P. Richardson, Holt Teague, has filed a cross bill for an absolute divorce against his wife Marie Teague, of 1620 Ninth street, northwest. He names John Sabath as correspondent. He denies the charges made in the bill of complaint filed by his wife for a limited divorce, charging him with non-support and desertion. He charges her with adultery. Teague declares in his bill that his wife and John Sabath are living together as man and wife at 1620 Ninth street, and that on the morning of July 31, about 1:30 a.m., in company with a policeman, he

He told Mrs. Watson that he wished to have his eyes refracted by Dr. Watson. He then asked her questions about the neighborhood and her home.

After having Dr. Whitby call again and two white physicians consulted, Dr. Watson resorted to the kidnapping that landed Mrs. Watson in Gallinger.

where we supply so large a pro-
portion of the business, We have
not had our share of positions in
the administrative branches of the
District government. Our portion
of the population and our steady
increase in home ownership and in
business, demand posts of respon-
sibility in the affairs of the city.
As an experiment in law enforce-
ment, if for no other reason, we
should have one of the judgeships
in the police courts. We sincerely
suggest that the presence of a col-
ored man on the bench would act
as a deterrent to some of the
crimes with which members of our
group are now charged. Race pride
would operate to make the more
careless ones behave. The obser-
vations made by a colored man in
such a post, would be valuable in
finding correctives’for some of the
social ills from which the city now
suffers.

and verses, got her friends inter-

she was a strict observer of the

name was Sarah.
One day Sarah heard a friend use
the word “nigger.”
“You should never use the word
‘nigger,’” Sarah reminded her
friend.
Her friend's name was Priscilla
Priscilla said she would use it_as
much as she wished to. Then Sa-
rah said no more.
‘Two days after this Priscilla was
going down P street when she
heard two boys quarreling and
calling each other “niggers.”
Priscilla heard how ridiculous it
sounded, so she stopped them. Then
she went to Sarah's house and told
her she was sorry she got so angry
when she told her how bad. it
sounded to use the word “nigger.”
Priscilla told Sarah of the conver-
sation of the boys and how she
stopped them. Priscilla is now a
loyal Tribunite and is as close an
observer to the pledge as Sarah is.

A STORY BY AN OLD TRI. .
BUNITE
Last week the names of some of
the past Tribunites were used as
the basis for. a mythical letter
written from Tribune Lane in the
year 1940, In looking over the old
Children’s Pages, the following
story caught my eye and it is be-
ing ‘re-printed here for old times
sake. It is typical of what the
Tribunites of past years used to
do. The story was written by Hen-
ry S, Morris in 1922.
The story follows:
“Touissaint L'Overture, the Ne-
gro chieftain of Haiti, was a slave
on the plantation called ‘De Liber-
tas) belonging to a white “man
named M. Bayou.
“When the insurrection of the
Negroes took place in 1791, Touis-
faint did not join them until he
had helped M. Bayou and his fam-
ily toa place of safety. Touissaint
in his duties, had learned to love
M. Bayou who had discovered in
Touissaint many amiable and fine
qualities.
“In 1797, Touissaint L'Overture
‘was appointed by the French Gov-
ernment, Commander-in-Chief of
the Armies of Santo Domingo
From 1797 until 1801 the Islanc
of St. Domingo was happy.
SLater the attempt by Napoleor
Bonaparte to re-establish slavery
in St. Domingo failed: Although
the attempt failed in its object. it
proved fatal to the brave Touis.
saint.
“LiOverture was seized treach:
erously by LeClere, a French com.
mander, and he was taken aboarc
a ship bound for France. There he
was thrown into a subterranear
dungeon near Besancon where, it
April 1803, he died.
“Since then not one name equal:
that of L/Overture since the dis
covery of the West India Island:
by Columbus. I do not think that
there will be any person whos
name will equal that of Dominiqu:
Touissaint Bredda L’Overture.”

advantage.
“Ben Davis and Perry Howard,”
he continued, “will yet live to know
the insincerity of Hoover. He is
both ~. Ku Kluxer and a lily white.
“Tt is not hard to divine or guess
just why the Hoover Federal ma-
chine is paying particular attention
to probing deep into the alleged
sale of Federal offices in Georgia
and Mississippi.
Should Include Texas
“Texas should be included. Con-
gressman Harry M. Wurzbach
from the fourteenth district of Tex-
as, stood on the floor of the House
and openly charged that those in
charge of the so-called Republican
organization of Texas have sold
Federal patronage just as a butcher
sells choice cuts. of beef, lamb and
‘pork chops. Yet the Hoover Fed-
‘eral machine refused to investigate
and denied Wurzbach a seat in the
Kansas City convention because he
made the charge.
“The Hoover viewpoint finds no
wrong in selling Federal office, but
the crime consists in who does the
selling. I have no brief of defense
for Georgia and Mississippi patron-
age brokers, but I-do insist that al
boodlers and patronage brokers
should be included in the Hoover
Federal machine investigation.”
All White Republicans
The Republican organisation. i
Texas under Creager is all white
There is not a tinge of color about
it, Creager himself is a member
of the executive committee of the
Republican national committee not
withstanding that he has beer
charged with alleged Federal pa
tronage sales.
During the sixty-eighth Congres:
hevwas also charged on the flooi
of the Senate with the fradulen
use of the mails in the sale of land:
in,the lower Rio Grande Valley it
‘Texas. A subcommittee of th
Senate later passed a resolutior
directing this ‘sub-cemmittee to
transmit the evidence taken by it
to the Department of Justice with
the request that the Attorney Gen-
eri take such action. in the courts
as may appear to be warranted by
the facts.
Tt was charged on the floor of the
Senate that Creager through the
influence of former Postmaster
General Will Hays and Attorney
General Harry M. Daugherty
checked the investigation and court
proceedings.
