Lea Chaplain Se Namesakes of Famous Characters Apply at Freedmen's for Treatment Two notable characters of different periods appeared at the Freedmen's Hospital for treatment this week. They were Robert E. Lee and Charlie Chaplain. Chaplain, namesake of the famous comedian, was picked up by policemen of the No. 2 Precinct when he was found on the street in an unconscious condition. Upon arrival at the hospital he was found to be suffering from no worse ailment than intoxication, and was returned to the station house where he was charged with disorderly conduct. Lee, whose Christian name is the same as that of the southern general, was cut by an unknown person on V street, northwest. He was treated for an incised wound of the left shoulder and sent home. CHANGES PLEA IN MURDER CASE Robert E. Dorsett, charged with the killing of Alexander H. Steen during an altercation in Naylor's court, northwest, on May 27, withdrew his plea or not guilty to a manslaughter charge in Criminal Court, No. 1, last Tuesday, and entered a plea of guilty to a charge of second degree murder. At the request of Michael Lane, counsel for Dorsett, the case was referred to probation officer Amos A. Steele for report.

KUKLUX FORMING JUV'NILE BRANCH Children Being Solicited on Rumor That Lindbergh Is a Member NEW YORK (CNS).—The Ku Klux Klan is with us again. It has initiated a campaign to secure members for its "junior branch," among Sunday school children. An instance of this was furnished by a young boy who said he was approached by his Sunday school teacher in the Baptist Temple, Third avenue, and Schermerhorn street, Brooklyn, and an application blank 'and propaganda leaflet were given him. The name of the teacher is withheld because it would help to identify the boy. Lindberg Belongs The lad reports that he was told that Lindbergh is a member of the Klan and that all boys who signed up would be introduced to Dazzy Vance, star pitcher of the Brooklyn Nationals, who was described as in sympathy with the movement. POSTAL CLERK HURT M. S. Sampson, 114 U street, northwest, received a laceration over the eye when a piece of wood he was cutting flew up striking him, Sunday. DE REPR DEPRIEST WINS REPRIEVE ROBS CHAIR FIRST RACE SWEETHEART SLAYER GETS REPRIEVE Last Minute Stay of Execution Saves Condemned Youth from Chair for Appeal The execution of George Herbert Thompson, youthful slayer of his sweetheart, was postponed until January 17, by Chief Justice Walter I. McCoy in criminal court No. 1, last Monday. Thompson was to have been electrocuted Thursday. The stay was granted to permit Attorney Frank J. Kelly, counsel for the condemned youth, to take the case to the District Court of Appeals. Convicted Year Ago Thompson was convicted of the murder of his sweetheart, Elsie Bowen. They quarreled about her having gone out with another man. He sought a reconciliation but his acquittures were rejected. When she refused a reconciliation a third time, he left her home and went out and bought a gun. He returned immediately and again asked her to make up. She again refused, and he fatally shot her. The killing took place October 31, 1927. At the time Thompson was only 21 years old. COURT SETTLES DIFFICULTIES Optician Loses Temper When Neighbor's Children Pester Him Warring between two families happens in the best of regulated neighborhoods, it was proven in Judge Isaac R. Hitt's Police Court, Monday, when Eearl Alphonso Parker, 30 years old, an optician, was arraigned on a charge of assault against Loretta Baker, 14-year-old high school student. According to the testimony given by government witnesses, numbering five boy neighbors, all students in the local high schools, and the girl's mother, Parker attacked the Baker child, Sunday afternoon, as the latter was on her way to the corner grocery store. The man, it was alleged, struck and knocked the girl down several times. Judge Hitt then warned both families against a repetition of their offenses against each other, and advised that they make an effort to forget their petty differences. The Parkers and the Bakers live in the 700 block of Girard street, one of the fashionable and select neighborhoods of northwest Washington. Skull Fractured in Collision William Frazier, 36, of 811 T street, northwest, is at Casualty Hospital suffering a fracture of the skull, as the result of being thrown from an automobile in which he was riding when it was in collision with another car, at First and D streets, northeast, Monday night. The car, driven by George H. Gaskins, a friend of Frazier's, collided with the automobile owned and operated by Melvin Beavers, 222-A Eleventh street, northwest.

Marcus Garvey Ordered To Leave Canada MONTREAL (CNS)—The Canadian government has decided that Marcus Garvey must leave Canada. Garvey appeared before a board of inquiry at the local immigration offices and was ordered deported under the clause in the Immigration act which prohibits the entry of political agitators. He was scheduled to speak recently in Montreal, and later in the week at Toronto, but was arrested on orders from Ottawa. On his representation, to the Board of Inquiry that he was in Canada merely in transit and did not intend to remain, he was released on a bond of $100, until November 7, when he had to leave the country. Garvey is a British subject, being a native of Jamaica, W.I. Coupled with his deportation from America some time ago and his recent conflict Garvey is slowly becoming a man without a country.

(By Wire)—Coming from the rear after he had been apparently defeated by Harry D. Baker, white (D), Oscar DePriest, former alderman, was elected to Congress from the first Illinois district, according to unofficial returns received today. Judge William Harrison, Independent, and Baker was said to have conceded DePriest's election late Wednesday. With three precincts not yet accounted for out of 162, the vote was DePriest had polled 23,141, while Baker trailed with 20,201. Harrison's poll has not been officially announced.

The package looked strange on a wagon marked "ice," so the officers approached Glover. The man attempted to escape, but the officers halted the vehicle within the block.

George White, of North Carolina, in 1901. He was the last Negro Congressman.) THE SOUL OF JOHN BROWN GOES MARCHING ON The soul of John Brown marches on in so far as the people who this illustrous abolitionist fought and died for, justify his sacrifice. Hence, in the election of Oscar DePriest of Chicago, Illinois, as representative of the First Congressional District of that state in the House of Representatives, last Tuesday, is further proof of the righteousness of the cause. - Although barely escaping defeat in a district overwhelm- ingly colored, late returns gave Mr. DePriest a sufficient lead to insure his election. He is the first Negro to be elected to Congress from a northern state. He is not however, the first Negro to serve in Congress as there have been twenty-two Negroes who served from 1871 to 1901. Two of this group served in the Senate and the others in the House. The victory of DePriest is the first real evidence of the power of the vote of the Negro migrants who, during the past fifteen years have been leaving the South. In the cities of New York City,-Philadelphia, Baltimore, Detroit, Chicago, and St. Louis, many Congressional districts have sufficently large Negro residents to make them the dominant factor in the election of any candidate. That this voting power should be used for their own best interest, is perfectly natural, and this interest is best served by the election of men of their own race to public office. Besides Oscar DePriest, there were two other Negroes Yunning for Congress. One was Edward A. Johnson, of New York City, who was a candidate on the Republican ticket in the twenty-first district of New York. This district includes most of Harlem. Mr. Johnson was defeated by Royal H. Weller, Democrat. He was the second Negro defeated in this district for Congress. Dr. E. P. Roberts was defeated by Weller in 1926. The other Negro running for Congress was Joseph Mc- ‘Lenmore, of St. Louis, Mo. Attorney McLenmore opposed 1. C. Dyer in the twelfth district. He ran on the Democratic ‘ticket which was the first time this party has sponsored a Negro candidate on the national ticket. Four years ago, however, the Democrats in Chicago offered this honor to Attorney Earl B. Dickerson in the first district of Ilinois. He refused to accept. Although only one out of three Negroes on the national ticket won, there is much rejoicing in this victory and it will no doubt pave the way for other Negro Congressmen. The last Negro to serve in Congress was the late Hon. George H. White, of North Carolina. He served in the 55th ond 56th Congress, his term expiring March 4, 1901. DePriest opens the second chapter in the history of the Negro in Congress. Practically every racial group represent- ed in America’s melting pot is represented in the present Congress except the Negro, Now that the Negro will join this illustrous body, let us hope that never again will a colored Man be missing from this important law making body. The fifteen million Negroes in America congratulate Mr. DePriest on his victory and Chicago for making it possible. THE ELECTION - points in Tuesda Hoover into the | merican Negro. T arties, factions, gro few ground won mt ed. in America now je s the victims of gro force working agai There are many points in Tuesday's election which ‘swept Herbert Clark Hoover into the White House, that: should interest the American Negro. The election is now over and the various parties, factions, groups, etc., must now ook to the future. New ground won must be consolidated; losses must be retrieved. & ‘The Catholic group in America now joins the Negro, the Jew and foreigners as the victims of group prejudice. For there was no greater force working against Al Smith than the fact of his religion. Instead of overcoming her preju- ‘dices, America is gradually adding to them. First, the Ne- ‘gro; then the Jew; later the foreigners, (so called) and now the Catholics. “Remember, when the judgment is weak, the prejudice is strong.” Through whatever combination, Mr. Hoover has broken the “Solid South.” This fact alone is pregnant with many dangers for the Negro, and, it may also contain its blessings in disguise. First, Mr. Hoover went further to encourage the lily-whites of the south than did any of his previous Republican predecessors. Whether they were the cause of the G.O.P. breaking the south of course is more or less a conjecture. Nevertheless, the lily-whites will lose no time in trying to convince Mr. Hoover that 1932 makes it manda- tory that he continue to recognize them. The lily-whites and the Negro, like oil and water, just will not mix. The breaking of the solid south will naturally cause the Repub- licans to revamp their views on questions of: interest to the white south. The telegram which James Francis Burke, general counsel for the Republican national committee wired to Mr. Hoover, is very significant of what the future holds. In his congratulatory message, he said: “You have broken the solid south and introduced Dixie to the Republican house- hold, where a warm welcome awaits her.” _ Will Dixie be welcomed with all her hates, prejudices and gecerrintians (2) or will she be cleansed of these vices before ing given a seat at the Republican pie counter? Robert R. Church, of Tennessee alone of the southern Negro leaders survived the pre-election campaign. Will he survive the welcoming party Mr. Burke speaks of, or will he too follow the trail of Perry W. Howard, of Mississippi; Walter Cohen, of Louisiana, and Ben Davis, of Georgia, after Mr. Hoover enters the White House? Will Mrs. Georgia Williams, Na- tional Committeewoman from Georgia, and Mrs. Mary Booze, National Committeewoman of Mississippi, who figured so prominently in the dance episode of the campaign, retain their post, or will they be forced to relinquish them to white Dixie maidens who feared the Pope’s assent in America in case of a Smith victory and thereby joined the calvacade for Bape of protestantism? Since the fiasco at Kansas last June, and the subsequent indictment of Perry How- ard none of these leaders know just where they stand in the party’s councils, The Republican party could have broken the solid south years ago if they had only enforced the Federal constitution. ,The disfranchisement of the Negro has been the only thing: that has prevented this deliverance all these years. ,..To paraphrase a biblical expression we state, “the party lives by prejudice, will perish by prejudice.” Now after t years, the south, which has maintained its stronghold itics because of its prejudice against the Negro, now this position and the very existence of the Democratic , menaced because of its prejudices. [Epirorar my MAGOTINE The southern Democratic leaders at last have been aroused. Faced with three ignominous defeats ‘in a row, each worst than the other, they must now fight with their backs to the wall for their own existence. That they will not give up without a fight can be seen from the statement issued by Governor Dan Moody, Democrat of Texas, who, in a state- ment on the election said: “The Republicans can take no heart in the vote their ticket received in the South, for the South in sentiment and feeling is still solidly Democratic. The next national election will reveal this as a fact.” Just as the breaking of the south will force the Republi- cens to institute a change in their attitude to certain policies of interest to the newly won southerners, the shattered rem- nants of the disorganized and dazed Democratic party must also change some of its policies If it wishes to continue to exist. In these southern states, millions of voters await only a fair deal in order that they may cast their ballots. Where else can the Democratic party look for new recruits than to this large Negro population? Of course they cannot be won without concessions. If the Republicans can enlist the sup- port of the sons and daughters of Lee and Stonewall Jackson under the banner first unfurled by Lincoln, why then can’t the sons and daughters of Dred Scott and Frederick Douglass serve under the standard raised by Thomas Jefferson and drenched in blood by Jefferson Davis? | In most southern states the matter of Negroes voting is entirely up to those who control the election machinery. The ‘Democrats may expect a real fight on the parts of the Re- publicans to hold the gains they have made in the south. Now that the Elephant has tasted victory, it is reasonable to assume that there will be no retreat without a fight. If the Republicans find the newly won white southerners drifting from them, they too still have the opportunity and power to. enfranchise the Negro and continue to hold their gains. The Negro must prepare himself’ to’ take, advantage of | whatever opportunities the future will offer him in the south- ern political arena. The victory of Hoover is only the signal to fight, the end of the conflict fies in a distant future. | Sims | HE TALKS ABOUT NOTHING IN PARTICULAR Psychologists are divided on the question of the real meaning of love.

He further declared that he cared not. how. or where or from they got. the money, so long as it was forthcoming. Is it any wonder that the drive went “over the top?” It_is almost “blood” money.

Gaines which appeared in a, recent num- ber of the Tribune against the ac- tivities of certain supervisory of- ficials of the public schools in electing contributions from teach- ers is both appropriate and time- ly, coming as it does at the close of another “suecessful” financial drive, engineered largely by school officials and conducted, in this in- — » for the benefit of the Y,M. CA. It is apparent that our public school teachers are fast becoming the prey of every “drive” organ- izer who is able, in his money-rais- ing efforts, to enlist the support of a school official, and I quite agree with Mr. Gaines that the time is fast_approaching when the Board of Education should inquire into end put a stop to the increasing de- fnands made on teachers for dous- tions to agencies outside of the school system. The fact that some of these cam- paigns are for worthy purposes has no bearing in the matter. If a teacher is’ willing to render her support voluntarily, it is well and good. But for a supervisory offi- cial to issue an ultimatum, either direct or implied, to the effect that he expects a one hundred per cent response from them in the inter- ests of-whatever drive he, at that time, happens to be connected with, is_a_horse of another color.

Parker Outlines New Program for Present Year at First Meeting of Term A drive to popularize simpler dress among girl pupils of High School age is a part of the program of the Federation of Parent-Teachers Associations, as considered at the first meeting of the school term at the Dunbar High School, last Thursday. .... The plan is part of the program offered by the president, George A. Parker, who was re-elected for the third term. Other officers elected were: Mrs. Mae J. Richardson, vice president; Mr. Clarence W. Tignor, second vice-president; Mrs. J. Madelyn Lewis, secretary; Miss Beatrice Jackson, assistant secretary; Mr. T. W. Short, treasurer. Executive committee: Mrs. Mary Lewis, Mrs. Gertrude Johnson, Miss Sadie A. Gaskins, Mr. Smith Wormley, Mr. J. C. Payne, Mr. George F. Roy, Col. West Hamilton. Probe Morals In his recommendations, Mr. Parker urged parents to pay closer attention to the social atmosphere surrounding the school buildings. In some instances, he declared, neighborhood stores are congregating places for pupils where the girls are brought into contact with grown men who frequent these places for the purpose of inciting them for automobile rides. Sanitary conditions at these stands are not always the best, he declared, and urged parents to investigate more thoroughly. A survey by the associations of their respective neighborhoods to better the living conditions and social life of the pupils was also urged. Congress Planned Plans are being made for a Parent-Teachers Congress to discuss juvenile delinquency and social hygiene at the Dunbar High School the second week in December. There were 37 associations represented at the meeting. The main feature of the evening was a lecture by Dr. C, Vi Anderson, of the Child Welfare Group, who stressed the necessity of more health clinics in the schools. Holstein Takes Hand In Nurse's Fight NEW YORK CITY.—An inscription "Regardless of Race, Color or Creed," appearing on the portals of the Presbyterian Hospital, this city, is the subject of a heated letter written to the Board of Trustees of the Sloane Maternity by Caspar Holstein, wealthy New Yorker, early this week. Mr. Holstein's letter was sent as a challenge on behalf of Miss Gladys Catchings, Freedmen's Hospital Supervising Nurse, who was barred from taking a special training course in obstetrics at the hospital, the latter part of last summer. The letter embraced a most emphatic protest in which Mr. Holstein declared that he would have never made a donation had he not been moved by the words inscribed on the Presbyterian Institution. The Sloane Maternity and the Presbyterian Hospitals, together with several others, make up the great Manhattan medical center, toward the maintenance of which Negroes are said to have contributed approximately $60,000. LINCOLN WORK LAUDED PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—The Survey of Negro colleges and universities which has just been issued by the Bureau of Education in Washington speaks in high terms of the work for Negro education which has been done by Lincoln University, Pennsylvania, during the seventy-five years of its history. The bulletin just issued says in Chapter XVI that the College Department has been rated as standard by the Pennsylvania Department of Education since 1916, and accredited by the Regents of the University of the State of New York since 1923. Its graduates receive teachers' certificates in both of these states, which are recognized by a number of other State Departments of Education. The Association of Colleges and Preparatory Schools of the Middle States and Maryland has accredited Lincoln University since 1922.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1928 PLEADING GUILTY SAVES HEAVY FINE The decision of their attorney to change their pleas to guilty probably saved two defendants in Police Court a great amount of embarrassment, Monday. Lawrence Scott and Maud Rush, the defendants, were arraigned before Judge Isaac R. Hitt, on charges of destroying private property, disorderly conduct and intoxication. After asking a rule to compel the witnesses to leave the room, and conversing with his clients, Lawyer Thomas Beckett requested permission to change the plea of Scott and Miss Rush. The court granted the request and then imposed the minimum fines for each offense. Both defendants willingly paid $5 on the destroying private property charge, $5 on the disorderly conduct charge and $10 for being drunk. DR.

Koger, of Baltimore, who is directing the project nationally. As set forth in a pamphlet issued by the director, the objects of the celebration are to disseminate information to the Negro youth, arouse racial consciousness; stimulate the study of Negro Life and History and at the same time spread propaganda to the other groups as to the contributions of the Negro to American development.

Another feature of the celebration is the essay contest in which five cash prizes are to be given away for the best essays on "Negro Achievements."

Addresses and programs arranged from Negro composers, are to be broadcast over the Radio and the ministers have been asked to preach a special sermon along this line.

WORKERS COLLIDE, ONE HURT While working in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, David Johnson, of the Whitelaw Apartments, was hurt when he ran into a fellow employee, Friday. ONE of INCLUDED SUIC'DE TRY TOO FE'BLE MAN JUST SCRATCHED Life apparently held little for Isaac Simpson, of an address in southwest Washington, after he found that the love of his wife had grown cold. Simpson accordingly shot himself. Despondent, police of the Fourth Precinct say, because his wife left him, Simpson sent a bullet from a 32 calibre revolver in his left arm between the shoulder and elbow while at his home, last Sunday. The Casualty Hospital ambulance responded with Dr. J. R. Young in attendance. The physician's diagnosis was that the injury was not serious. SHAW UNIVERSITY REVIVES LAW SCHOOL RALEIGH, N.C.—The first steps were taken in the re-establishment of the Shaw University Law School which was discontinued in 1914, when last week night classes in law lectures were set in operation.

This means that Morgan is now rated as "Class A" by the following agencies: State Department of Education in Maryland and other States; The Association of American Council on Education; University Senate, Board of Education of the M. E. Church, and the American Medical Association. There was much rejoicing on the part of students and teachers when this announcement was made. HOME FOR WORK GIRLS OPERATING Miss Nannie Burroughs and Others Plan to Train Servant Girls Hoping to illustrate how the good conduct of colored employees can affect the thinking of other members of their race, and thus react beneficially, the National Association of Wage Earners, Inc., has created a home and training school for girls who come here as strangers to the city. The home is large and appropriately furnished for club work, for meetings and for entertaining as well as training for the kinds of jobs most frequently opened to colored women. Switchboard operation and power sewing machines, experience in training in waiting and serving as maids as well as courtesies demanded over the phone and on errands are taught by Letha L. Chaig, trained social worker and resident manager. Miss Nannie Burroughs is general president, and Sadie T. Henson is head of the local union. The organization is planning to appeal before the public, Sunday, November 12, at the New Bethel Baptist Church, Ninth and S streets, northwest, with a program. Prof. Charles M. Thomas will be the principal speaker.

EMARKABLE ANNIVERSARY WOMAN BEATS MAN IN KNIFE BATTLE Stab wounds, inflicted on him during an altercation with a woman in front of his home, last Sunday afternoon, have placed Jessie Lawrence, 70, living at 243 Third street, southwest, in Emergency Hospital in a serious condition. Lawrence reported to police of the Fourth Precinct that he engaged in an argument with a woman by the name of Elizabeth Templeton, whose address he did not know. Without warning she is alleged to have whipped out a knife and stabbed him in the chest and abdomen. The man was conveyed to the hospital in the automobile of a passing motorist. ALLEGED AX WIELDER FREED A charge of assault with an ax, preferred by two collectors of a local furniture company, against George P. Smith, was dismissed by Judge John P. McMahon in police court Thursday. The collectors, both of whom are six footers, testified that they called at Smith's home to remove some household goods which he had failed to pay for, and that Smith rushed after them with an ax, hitting one on the jaw and swinging twice with the ax without striking either of them. "How could I swing an ax at a man as big as that twice without hitting him?" inquired Smith, testifying in his own behalf. Judge McMahon agreed with Smith and dismissed the case. Man Serious In Stabbing An altercation at 1517 Caroline street, northwest, last Sunday night, resulted in the stabbing of Frank Ross, 46 years old, of the Caroline street address by William Flemons, who is said to live at Halls Hill, Va. Ross was rushed to Emergency Hospital in a passing automobile and treated by Dr. M. C. Lowden, who reported the man's condition to be undetermined.

Rucker, a dining car employee of the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad. In her petition, Mrs. Rucker charges that her husband misconducted himself with Ethel Harris at No. 1334 Twenty-second street, northwest, on numerous occasions from June, 1926, to July 17, 1928. She also alleges that while they lived together he often abused and mistreated her and failed to provide necessary support for her and their two children, James Clifton Rucker, aged 15 years, and Robert Bernard Rucker, aged 13 years. She says she was forced to leave him November 2, 1920, because of cruel treatment. They were married in April, 1912. Mrs. Rucker also asks for alimony and custody of the two children, who have been living with her since their separation. She is represented by Attorneys George A. Parker and Chester H. Jarvis.

He was advised by the duly authorized representatives of the university, he alleges, that he was qualified for admission and eligible for registration. On October 9, he declares, he paid to the secretary-treasurer of the university $75, the dues exacted of him for the first semester. His money was received by the university, he asserts, and he was accepted as a student. Ordered to Withdraw He continued his attendance at classes, and is still attending, but on October 17 he was presented with a letter signed by the dean of the medical school requesting him to withdraw from the school, he states. He refused. Over his protest and objections, President Mordecai W. Johnson, acting upon an order purported to be issued by the executive committee of the trustee board, struck his name from the rolls of the University. Order Illegal The order upon which Dr. Johnson acted, says Smith, was null and void because the meeting of the executive committee of the trustee board was not legal for the reason that a quorum was not present. The members of the executive committee are Dr. Michel O. Dumas, Dr. Jesse E. Moorland, Victor B. Deyber and John R. Hawkins. They are named in the suit as defendants with the university and President Johnson. Damage Irreparable The action of President Johnson in striking his name from the rolls of the university, he alleges, will result in irreparable damage to him for the reason that it is too late to enter any other school or college of medicine and he will be deprived of one year's work in his efforts to procure a medical education. Asks Writ He asks the court to issue a writ of mandamus commanding Howard University, the President and the executive committee of the trustee board to restore his name to the rolls of the university as a student in the freshman class of the medical school.

The place of the president of a university, according to general opinion, is at the head of his institution. But nowhere ever, have we heard it remarked—even faintly—that the place of either of these figures is on the players' bench at a football game. Practices may come and traditions may go, but the newest in such lines is what we have just said we never heard of before. Walking the visiting sidelines during a recent football game, we let loose a smile when we heard it remarked that the president of the home school was sitting on the bench of the players. We smiled because we could see no harm. In fact we thought it a neat piece of psychology to have the administrator mingle with the young warriors of the gridiron. We thought of the social aspect and grunted "that's pretty good" as we shifted hands with the notebook and pencil to blow the nose of this creeping cold. Then we started around to the home side, we don't know why, but that's our business—to do things and learn afterwards why we do them. Taking up a position near the bench we noticed that the president was in conference with the school's coach, even though the coach wasn't in conference with the prexy. The gentleman coach, we noticed as the conference progressed under the one-way sign, began to color. He resembled very much the man who is straining every nerve to control the string which might release his wrath. He arose from his seat. He walked away from the bench. He paced the sidelines. The head-linesman, seeing him on the lines away from his bench, called a foul, believing that the coach was signalling his players. The penalty was 25 yards, and it was inflicted in the midst of a home team rally. It hurt. The coach returned to the bench, but did not resume his old seat. Instead he went to the end of the line and sat down. Inquisitive—that's our racket—we ought to learn what transpired during the conference, as well as to discover the reason for the apparent uneasiness of the coach. It appears the president took the opportunity—while offering his psychological effect—to lecture the coach on how to lecture his players. The preacher-prexy, it is said, did not like the way his little gridders of his "great big family" were conducting themselves in the gentle fall sport. "How to fall:" "The gentle art of tackling:" "Courteous, but determined methods of defense," and "Aesthetic dancing as an aid to backfield aspirants," were mentioned as some of the subjects of the skull drill given the coach for his cohorts. We were rocked with the absurdity of the disclosures, but scratched our heads and wiped the nose. This is a modern day, and nothing should be surprising to newspaper writers. Incidentally the team, after having the president's system injected in their craniums, lost the following game and was held to a scoreless tie in still another. In this latter, the opponents were evidently not well versed in the manner of a courteous defense, for had they been, several of their guests would not have been forced to return home on stretches. Printing Maybe a suggestion not to play the brutes again would be listened to, and if not we can see no reason why Howard University needs a president AND a football coach. STAR CUBAN HURLER HAVANA, Cuba—Jose Mendez, for 15 years the greatest pitcher Cuban baseball could boast, and one of the leading fingers of present day diamond material, died after a long illness, here Tuesday. The idol of Cuban baseball fans, and known as the "Black Matty" was for 5 years manager of the Kansas City Monarchs. Funeral services for Mendez were held, Thursday. S.C. STATE EASY WINNERS ORANGEBURG FAIR GROUND After overcoming what was considered to be much opposition in the first half, South Carolina State College "Bull Dogs" found it easy to make points at will against the Georgia State team from Savannah. The game ended 39-0. STORER COLLEGE WINS FROM H. U. FROSH ELEVEN Playing ankle deep in mud and rain before a wildly enthusiastic gathering of football fans, the Howard Freshmen were nosed out by a heavier and more experienced Storer College combination by a score of 12-0 here last Saturday. Sam Lacy LOCAL BOYS PREPARE FOR FIGHT SEASON Jimmie Glascoe and Herbic Hunter, prominent local middle-weight boxers, are working out regularly at the Young Men's Christian Association in preparation for their appearance as headliners in an Arlington Sports Club Show, scheduled for the near future. The date of this tournament has not been definitely decided as yet. These two lads expect to engage in fights at the New Albert Auditorium, in Baltimore, during the winter boxing shows, held there annually under the management of Garland S. Mackey. Glasco and Hunter have both established enviable records as participants in New York City fight cards. WASHINGTON PIRATES BREAK LOSING STREAK The Washington Pirate football team won its first contest of the season by downing the strong Ebenezer eleven, 13-6, at Sixth and K streets, southeast, last Sunday afternoon. The victory was the only one enjoyed by the Buccaners in their four starts this year. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1928 ARMSTRONG TEAM VICTORIOUS OVER NORCUM HIGH ELEVEN DUNBAR AND HUNTINGTON TEAMS IN SCORELESS DEADLOCK BECKWITH SAVES TEAMMATES BY STAR TACKLE NEWPORT NEWS, Va.—Throwing every ounce of his weight and every second of his speed in one dying lunge, Bernie Beckwith, stellar Dumbar High School back, wrapped his arms around the legs of Howard, speedy halfback of the Huntington High team, here Friday and saved the day for his teammates. Howard, in another stride, would have crossed the goal line and thus killed the chances for a scoreless tie for which Dumbar, backs against the wall, fought. It was in the waning minutes of play, when the Red and Black team from the Nation's Capital was tossing forward passes at random in a final effort to gain the verdict. Howard snatched one of the heaves from the air and led in a chase down field toward his team's goal. Beckwith started with him, and as the last visiting tackler had been evaded the Washington boy made a desperate drive. His attempt was crowned with success as the local boy went down. The score ended, 0-0. LAST QUARTER RALLY GAINS TIGER VERDICT NASHVILLE, Tenn. Nov. 3.—Tuskegee facing a desperate, resourceful and cunning Fisk team came from behind and finally jumped ahead to win, 13 to 7, before 4,000 excited onlookers here today. Tuskegee ran into a Fisk team that was brilliant, well coached and alert, but the Tigers had that final winning punch. It was crushing irrerrestible power that won the game for Tuskegee, and it was a flashing lateral pass, a forward pass and an end running attack that made Fisk such a dangerous opponent. It was Fisk's game until the middle of the third period when the Tiger backs began the march that made touchdowns. Going into the last quarter, trailing a 7-6 count, the Tigers began a march that was not to be denied. Stevenson, Woolridge and Shanklin carried the ball alternately in the drive which netted the victory. STONEWALLS MATCHED WITH FOR GO WITH WILLOW TREE The Stonewall A. C. is scheduled to meet the Willow Tree eleven in a grid battle, at Sixth and K streets southeast, Sunday. The Stonewall combination boasts an enviable record for the season thus far, and promises to be ready for the Playground representatives. The Stonewalls are booked for a meeting with the crack Teddy Bear machine, Sunday, November 18. HAMPT'N WINS VERDICT OVER N.C. STATE HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Nov. 3.-Playing on a slippery, sloppy wet muddy field, Hampton's Blue and White iron horses managed to run rough-shod over the North Carolina State eleven to pile up a score of 38 points to a lone touchdown, which was made when Jones grabbed a loose ball and raced ninety yards. It was a ragged bit of football that the Seasiders put up in the first half, that let State break through their well nigh impregnable barrier and run down the field with escort a plenty. There were, however, some high points in the game, in which the Hampton players made spectacular plays in spite of the muddy field. The newly made members of the C.I.A.A. also made opportunities to thrill the crowd. The work of the versatile Virginians, however, was not to be denied. Hampton Summary N.C.

PANTHERS HELD TO 0-0 DRAW BY PARSONS RICHMOND. Va.—Entering the fray as the underdogs, the Virginia Seminary Dragons, led by Captain Red Fowler, all-American end and Ed Davis, stellar triple threat ball-carrier, held the chesty Union Panthers to a 0-0 tie, on Hovey Field, here, last Saturday. Davis, with faultless passing and a series of beautiful broken field runs, literally baffled the Panther aggregation completely. The ability of the Unionites to solve the efforts of the other Seminary backs, however, kept the Panther goal line uncrossed. Fowler, former Dunbar High School griddler, was a tower of strength both on the defense and offense. Line-ups and summary. Union Va. Seminary Boyd L.E. Fowler (C) Macklin L.T. Horton Robinson L.G.

KID CHOCOLATE WINS QUICK KAYO (CNS).—Just twelve seconds before the end of the first round of the main event at St. Nick's arena last night, Kid Chocolate speedy bantam from Cuba, caught Joey Ross with a long left swing to the jaw, causing Ross to execute a back somersault. The fighters were in the center of the ring when Ross started his last rush. Kid Chocolate allowed him to come in this time and then opened up with both hands. The fighters went to the ropes in a wild mixup. Ross tried to cover, but Chocolate continued to land with both hands until Ross was out on his feet. As Ross backed away, Kid Chocolate reached him with a long uppercut followed by a left to the jaw. Ross sagged over backward, paused on the back of his neck with both feet in the air and then lay flat on the canvas with his mouth open to be counted out just before the bell rang. Huge Crowd Sees Bluefield and Howard Tie BLUEFIELD, W.Va.—A crowd of nearly 1,500 typical West Virginia dyed-in-the-wool fans saw the crack Howard University football team and the starling Bluefield Collegiate Institute eleven battle to a scoreless deadlock, here, last Saturday. The two teams, deadly but friendly rivals, had each been working diligently toward this battle. The lines were trim, the backs were ready and prime, and the offensive and defensive methods had been carefully and systematically mapped. Every player on both the elevens was in top form for what was considered by each combatant as the meeting between the cream of collegiate talent. The fans too showed that they were equally as keyed-up for this match as were the players themselves. The opening kick-off was greeted with a mighty cheer, and throughout the entire pastime a constant banter was carried as evidence of the great enthusiasm. The Bisons, entering the fray as the underdog, displayed a spectacular bit of defensive play to thwart the only real Bluefield threat. Late in the first half the West Virginians carried the oval to the Blue and White five-yard line, but with a brace the visiting forward wall held for downs. The whistle blew to end the half as the ball changed hands. Jack Young, backfield ace, and Tommy Hawkins, sensational guard of the Bison machine, were forced to retire before the end of the game with injuries. Young suffered a injured knee-cap. He will be lost for the remainder of the season. Hawkins' injury consisted of torn ligaments of the left leg. Cain, stellar quarterback of the "Big Blue" team, also sustained a fracture of the leg. He will doubt- less be lost to the Mountaineers for the rest of the year. Line-ups and summary: **Bluefield** Howard Jeffries (c) L.E. Simpson Cunningham L.T. Webb Er-elish L.G.

LICHTMAN PLAYERS PRIMED FOR OPENER Conway's old Carlisle basketball combination will play its first game under the name of the Lichtman Players, by which title they are to be known this season, against the strong Baltimore Athenian combination on the latter's home floor, next Friday night. The local team is in a strenuous program of preliminary drills at the Dumbar High School Community Center, and with the addition of several of its old members as well as a host of recruits should mould a worthy combination. The Black and White Checks are boasting of the return to their fold of Ev Davis, one of the most outstanding players on District courts. The Greeks are showing much improvement in practice and expect to be in necessary shape to uphold local honors. HURT IN HOCKEY GAME Struck in the eye while playing hockey at Howard University, Miss Jennie Moseby, a student there, living at 2219 F street, northwest, received slight lacerations which necessitated medical attention. At Freedmen's Hospital, where she applied, three sutures were taken in the wounded optic, and Miss Moseby was directed to return to the eye clinic for further treatment. MAN CUT IN FIGHT Augie Carter, 31 years old, of 707 Second street, southwest, was cut on the head during an altercation with a man named Clinton, last-Sunday evening, according to police of the Fourth Precinct. Surgeons at Emergency Hospital where Carter applied for medical attention, said his condition could not be called serious. "The Football Classic of the Year."

BEARS AHEAD IN BATTLE WITH LION FOE The Lincoln lion left his habitat in Penns Woods and took to the war-path. He was ready for a fight. He wanted a fight. He got one. He got more than he wanted. The Morgan Grizzly called his bluff, and how! Lincoln was turned back by a 7-0 score. The bear smashed, ripped, clawed and passed his way to the only touchdown of the game about the middle of the first quarter. The score came as the culmination of a beautiful 75-yard advance. With fourth down and four to go, Nick made good on a smash straight through the center of the Lion's defense. A pass from Pinky Clark, admittedly one of the best passers in the East, to Lawless accounted for the extra point. It was a hard, fast, clean game. A crowd of 2000 and about 300 cars taxed the accommodations of Morgan's new athletic field. Morgan Line-up Lincoln Cottman L.E. Allen J.Williams L.T. Sydnor Lyght L.G.

KNOXVILLE COLLEGE IN TIE WITH FORCE WILBERFORCE, Ohio.—Entering the fray as underdogs the Knoxville College eleven from Tennessee held the Ohioans to their third successive tie game by a score of 6-6. However, Wilberforce outrushed the Tennesseeans to make fifteen first downs to Knoxville's three. Wilberforce scored in the second quarter when after an exchange of punts Wilberforce worked the ball to Knoxville's 27-yard line and after three successive thrusts at Knoxville's forward wall. Ward carried the ball over the last white strip to score. Knoxville immediately scored after when Odon returned the Force's kickoff to Wilberforce's 11-yard line. On the next try Gross passed to Williams for a touchdown. This ended the scoring for the day. Nixon, former Washington High School boy, sifted through the Knoxville defense constantly to down the runner behind the line of scrimmage. He was easily the outstanding defensive player on the field.

PROSPECTS BRIGHT AS COMMUNITYS DRILL Going into their third week of conditioning, the Community Yellowjackets, local court sensations, find themselves rounding into form. While the drills, so far, have not been of the variety that would tend to eliminate any of the new candidates, several are showing much promise. Tommie Jackson, Slim Thomas, and Soup Turner, the last named of whom spent the latter part of last season with the Yellowjackets, have announced that they have definitely cast their lots with the amateur organization. These names, added to those of Brother Gray, Zig Johnson, Jim Lee, Sam Laey, Kid Givens, Jim Neale, Slat Frazier, Joe Walker, Speck Lee and Ed Cook give the Orange and Black the strongest roster in its existence. Newt Jackson, former Dunbun High School flash, Pee Wee Covington, stellar young performer, Jimmie Harmon, hard working reeruit, and Ted Morse, Pittsburgh prospect, are the newcomers from which the Yellowjacket management hopes to draw. NORFOLK AGOG OVER C. I. A. A. CLASSIC NORFOLK, Va.—The stage is all set for what looms as the biggest football game the city beside the sea has witnessed, when the Carolina Aggies of A. and T. College, C.I.A.A. champions, 1027, and Hampton's Blue and White Iron Men clash at League Park, Armistice Day, Monday, November 12, in the Tidewater classic. The winner of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association flag this year, will largely be determined by this battle. Hampton has won in all of her starts against association teams this season, while A. and T. has won all but one, which resulted in a tie score, 0-0, during the first game of the season. Both teams will come well primed for the fray here, as each is particularly pointing to this grid gorefest. Hampton looms as the biggest hurdles for A. and T. to top in her dash for another C.I.A.A. crown, and the Aggies seem to be the big obstacle for the Seasiders to mount to claim the gonfalon held in 1925. DUNBAR LOSES STELLAR YOUNG TRACK SPRINTER The Dunbar High School cinder team will be without one of the most promising young trackmen it has had in many years, when the season opens and finds little Alfred (Timmie) Neale among the missing. Medical advice, prohibiting his participation in strenuous exercise, will no doubt keep the youthful Neale out of trunks. SEVEN EXTRA POINT IS MARGIN OF TECH VICTORY PORTSMOUTH, Va.—The Armstrong Technical High School football team shot to pieces with the loss, by scholarship ratings, of many of its outstanding performers, escaped with a single point margin of victory over the local Norcum High School eleven, here last Thursday. The score was 7-6. The much weakened Washingtonians obtained the verdict more through a freak touchdown than through actual supremacy on the playing field. Ernest Johnson, star end of the visiting aggregation, accounted for the win by falling on a loose on-side kick behind the Norcum goal posts. The Armstrong kick-off to begin the second half carried over the defensive goal line, and the defenders, for some reason or another failed to recover it. Johnson, streaking down field under it, dived on the oval as it went into the zone behind the zero mark. The extra point, which was the margin by which victory was achieved was obtained through the locals' off-side play. STATE EASY VICTORS OVER ST. AUGUSTINE Battling on a slippery muddy field here this afternoon, Virginia State rushed its way to five touchdowns and defeated a fighting St. Augustine team, by score of 32-0. Due to the condition of the field, ball fumbles were frequent and the first half seemed to be a comedy of errors. In the second half, State's powerful running attack began to function and led by Johnson, Dabney and Overby driving off tackle and over guard the "Hilltoppers" soon rang up four touchdowns. Early in the last quarter, State's second and third string players had replaced the varsity and displaying an abundance of pep and speed, completely outplayed the fast tiring Carolinas. BASKETBALL TEAMS OF THE COUNTRY—LOOK The Community Yellowjackets are anxious to book games for the coming basketball season with any teams east of Chicago.

Who is she? What is she? What are her habits, her pastimes, her ambitions and aspirations? In many instances she is a person looked down upon by the average everyday citizen. Mothers frown upon her and forbid their daughters to associate with her, branding her as too man wise for their innocent house raised, pampered and spoiled darlings, but in the true sense the chorus girl is just the same as other girls, only she has more brass and is not afraid to face the world with her bare fists and fight. Why Girls Leave Home Why do girls leave home and take a chance on an uncertain stage career? Both mothers and fathers are to blame whenever a girl leaves home. Fathers are to blame because of their lack of understanding and sympathy for the present day girl. Mothers are to blame because of their indulgence. From the time a girl can toddle, if she is any ways attractive the mother starts showign her off.

The show lacks in all three necessities of a race revue. Music, singing and dancing. The scores are taken from other shows, including "Blackbirds." The featured performers are Bee Wells, Waldine Williams, Stewart Hampton, Clarence Nance, Frank Lloyd, Robert Johnson, Henry Richardson, Eva Wingo, and a chorus. Critics predict that the show will do well to last a week. Adelaide Cans Two NEW YORK—Adelaide Hall, of "Blackbirds" fame, has canned two records of songs from the show.

Writer gives insight into ambitions of the average chorus girl. Says they are not all bad. this herself and puts her belief into practice. Many a girl who was a riot at home finds herself but a small potato in fast company. She isn't made a star over night as she expected, but she cannot turn back and admit defeat. She goes on taking chances. Sometimes she displays unusual ability and gets the chance she wants. Often girls with less ability but with more subtility in working their stuff with the manager get the parts that should go to her. She either keeps plugging away or else resorts to the same methods. Many girls have forced their way up by attracting the attention of producers who are more concerned with obtaining good talent than with satisfying his own desires. In this way real stars are discovered. Her Ambitions What are the ambitions of the chorus girl? Sentimentalists have written a lot about chorus girls who want to leave it all and settle down in a home of their own and have "b-a-b-i-e-s." This, however, is far from the average. Of course it is true that no chorus girl wants to be a chorus girl, far from it, the average chorus girl has but one amount ambition; she wants to be a leading lady—and that's that.zg ssh.!.
