Lacy The stage is all set. The Nation's Capital awaits the most outstanding social and athletic carnival known to Negroes of America. The appetite of the city beside the Potomac is whetted for the choicest of the Thanksgiving Day menu—the annual Howard-Lincoln football contest. HOW THEY FEEL ABOUT IT "Our backfield, consisting of some of the fastest men in colored Intercollegiate football, in addition to a wonderful spirit of team play and co-operation on the part of both coaches and players, should make the Lion a stubborn opponent for the Bison on Thanksgiving Day." F. T. Jamison, Grad. Mgr. "I have little or no fear of the Lincoln team if our boys will exhibit the same dash and fighting spirit which they have shown during the past week. I have every confidence that we will emerge the victors on next Thursday." Dr. Charles West, Coach, A female attendance, exceeding by far, any such gathering in the history of the classic, is promised with the change of vogue among the fair sex, ard with the return of the affair to the American League Park, where box seats allow for a greater display than was afforded at the Howard University Stadium, the scene of the battle two years ago. At this event, who is there, and what they wear, are of more interest t of the fairest sex than the game itself. The Bison team will enter the game odd-on favorites, and they should be able to decide the issue at least two touchdowns ahead of their Chester rivals. Should the Blue and White employ their sensational forward passing attack the Lion's will be compared to measure the short end of the score. On the other hand, should the Westmen resort to straight football where (Continued on Page 4) Most A reversion to the objects and aims of the Land-Grant Colleges and a closer application to the principles upon which these institutions were founded was the keynote sounded by Dr. R. S. Wilkinson in his opening address at the conference of college presidents in the auditorium of the Department of the Interior, Tuesday. There is a tendency, declared the speaker, to drift from agricultural, technical and economic training, for which these schools were founded, and pay more attention to the classical side of education. Work Is Rural There are 28 of these colleges he declared, "eleven of which are supported entirely by the states in which they are located and the others receiving support from both the state and national government. Their purpose originally was to train Negroes in the trades and agriculture. These colleges have since taken on scholastic and collegiate work and are giving degrees in higher education. The duty of the Land-Grant College, he said, is to prepare men for agriculture and trades, and women in homemaking that they might better the conditions in the rural communities. Negroes Need Jobs Dr. John H. Davis, president of West Virginia Collegiate Institute, declared that what the Negro in America needed most was a job. More and more, he stated, doors are being closed to the race because they have not been taught the habit of dependability. More than classical training, the Negro student must be taught how to work. By training men and women to go back to the farm the (Continued on page 5) Washington Tribune U. S.

SHOT, DOESN'T KNOW AS-SAILANT Shot while walking through Clark's court, southwest, Monday night William Gibbs, 27, of 310 Dixon court, southwest, was unable to tell police of the Fourth Precinct who had menaced his life. The bullet lodged in the left leg between the knee and foot. Gibbs was treated by his private physician at the office of the latter. His condition is not serious. NEW YORK.—Clad in a brilliantly colored robe, Chief Amoah III, ruler over 30,000 natives on the Gold Coast, West Africa, strode down the gang plank of the Cunarder Berengaria, which landed at the foot of West Fourteenth street, Saturday. The Chief's robe was colored with vegetable dies and was made by one of his ancestors, King Burupu, in 1801. To Start Clinic Chief Amoah III was met at the pier by a representative of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., his financial agents here. He said he was going to Milwaukee to receive funds for starting a clinic in his country. On his left wrist the native ruler wore a bracelet of gold nuggets and antique beads which he said had been brought by the Phoenicians to West Africa before the Romans, under Julius Caesar, went to Britain. While here he will arrange for an exhibition next March of the work of the Gold Coast. BOND IN NORFOLK J.

PIONEER FIREM'N DIES AT AGE OF 89 "Dan" Williams, Member of Old Horse Drawn Engine Fame, Succumbs NEAR DEATH TWICE The death of Daniel Philip Williams, who succumbed at his home here Thursday brought to a close the most colorful career of one of the District of Columbia's firefighters. Was 89 Years Old Mr. Williams died at the age of 89. Death followed an illness of more than two years' duration. He was among the first Negro firemen to see service in the District of Columbia. He was born in Drainasville, Va., in 1841. The deceased also saw service in the Civil War, immediately after which he took up residence in this city. In addition to being a member of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows and the Elder Men's Relief Association, Mr. Williams, for more than 50 years, attended and was a devout worker at the Metropolitan A.M.E.

The injuries are the result of Scott's plunge with the hoist down seven stories of the building under construction at Fifteenth and M streets, northwest. According to officials of the David C. Butcher Co., brick mason contractors, for whom Scott worked the elevator had been pronounced unsafe, and workmen had been warned against its use. Sctt was in the act of unloading wheelbarrows from the hoist. He was extricated from the wreckage by C. P. Butcher, son of the man in charge of the elevating work. SEGRECY IS BRANDED AS DANGEROUS SEGRECY IS BRANDED AS DANGEROUS Ruling of New York State Compelling Order to File Roster Upheld By Louis R. Lautier The Supreme Court of the United States last Monday upheld the validity of the Walker law, a New York statute, which requires the Ku Klux Klan to file a sworn copy of its constitution, oath of membership and roster of its members with public officials. The constitutionality of the act was challenged by a Klansman. He brought the case to the Supreme Court following the refusal of New York State courts to grant a writ of habeas corpus through which he sought to obtain his liberty after his conviction of violating the Walker law. Discrimination Justified The law was attacked on the ground that it was in conflict with the provisions of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution. Taking up the contention that the Walker law discriminated against the Klan, the court declares the discrimination justified by a difference between ordinary secret fraternities and the Klan. Scores Secrecy The difference, the court pointed out, is "in a manifest tendency on the part of one class to make the secrecy surrounding its purposes and membership a cloak for acts and conduct inimical to personal rights and public welfare." Strikes Terror The court referred to an opinion of one of the New York State courts which said of the Klan that "It is a matter of common knowledge that this organization functions largely at night, its mem-(Continued on page 5) ROBESON GUEST OF PARLIAMENT Negro Actor Honored at Luncheon by Leaders in the House of Commons LONDON—Paul Robeson, Negro actor and singer, whose performance in "Show Boat" here has been one of the outstanding features of that successful musical comedy, was entertained yesterday at luncheon in the House of Commons by members of the Labor Party. Ramsy MacDonald, former Prime Minister, was one of the guests and talked earnestly with Mr. Robeson. After the luncheon the theatrical was taken to a seat in the Distinguished Strangers' Gallery and later took tea with James Maxton and Miss Ellen Wilkinson. The diminutive Labor woman then took the gigantic actor around the House and introduced him to nearly every distinguished member. Rise Rapid Robeson recently figured prominently in a litigation instituted with the American Actors Equity in which he was suspended for breach of contract. Robeson has climbed steadily in the theatrical world in the last four years. He was once a football coach of Lincoln University, and pursued a course in medicine. Are they guilty or not guilty?

The decision of the jury automatically absolved William Blake, 25, of 220 K street, northwest, driver of the car, which ran Payne down, of all blame. The lad, according to the testimony, was playing near his home when the automobile, proceeding east on Thomas street, struck him. Blake rushed the child to Freedmen's Hospital, where he was pronounced dead of fracture of the skull, by Dr. H. E. Wharton. GARVEY MUZZLED IN BERMUDA BERMUDA.—Marcus. Garvey deported from Canada last week was refused permission to land at Hamilton, Bermuda, when the ship on which he was travelling arrived in Bermudan waters, Friday en route to Jamaica. Garvey was confined to the ship upon his refusal to promise not to make speeches if allowed to go ashore. Garvey indicated that he would file a protest with the British authorities.

Mrs. Green, who is supervisor of the Concert Bureau with headquarters at Droop's Music Store, told the reporter that there were only a few more front orchestra seats left, but that colored patrons could purchase seats in a corner of the rear of the house. These seats, she said, are also on the orchestra floor, and will sell at two dollars and fifty cents each. The other seats are priced at three dollars. Manager Speaks B. D. Barneville, manager of the Poli's Theatre, when approached by the reporter in regard to his attitude toward the Negro patronage said, "The theatre is rented to Mrs. Green for that occasion. Whatever policy she pursues in disposing of her tickets must be acceptable to me. So far as I, personally, am concerned there is no objection to be raised against either the barring or the soliciting of colored patronage." THE JURY PRICE FIVE CENTS DELTA GIRLS' INITIATION BROKEN UP Many Conflicting Stories of What Transpired at Midnight Ceremonies BOYS UNINVITED The mystery of what actually transpired at the initiation ceremonies of the Alpha Chapter of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Saturday night, grows more complicated and occasions much speculation in social and educational circles as confusing rumors concerning the affair creep out. Several young lady members are reported suffering from bruises and some are said to be badly cut and others injured. A popular young school teacher was carried to her home in a swoon minus several front teeth, according to reports. What Really Happened? While members of the sorority are apparently sworn to secrecy concerning the happenings of the night, many explanations are current. One report says that the initiating team became the victims of a trap they had set for their candidates and fell into an excavation in the rear of Howard University, near the reservoir where they became entangled in a net work of water pipes. Blame Howard Boys From some of the young women comes the story that while they were engaged in their festivities in the darkness they were frightened by a group of Howard Uni- (Continued on Page 4) at and Robbed Wails in Court Asserting that he was "gang- ed" and robbed by four women at a boarding house on New Jersey avenue, last Saturday night, Benjamin Fields, 29 years old, appeared as the complaining wit- ness against Carrie Miller, Carrie Moten, Aslee Brown, and Irene Granderson, in Police Court, on Monday. The women were charged with assault and robbery, and were arraigned before Police Judge Ralph Given. According to the story of Fields, he had applied at 785 New Jersey avenue, northwest last Wednesday, for a place to eat and sleep. Mrs. Miller, the proprietress of the place, accommodated him. Four Overpowered Him Fields, it is said, secured a job, and on Saturday drew his first pay. When he went to the New Jersey avenue address that night he was accosted by Mrs. Miller, who asked him for the money he owed her for the accommodations. According to his testimony, Fields reached in his pocket and pulled out a five-dollar bill and four bills of one dollar denomination. He paid Mrs. Miller the four dollars, Fields said, but the woman, not contented drew a gun on him and demanded that he hand her the rest. When he refused, one of the women struck him in the face with a shovel while the other three overpowered and robbed him. The defendants all testified that Fields absolutely refused to pay his account in full, and that when Mrs. Miller insisted, the man reached for his pocket in a menacing attitude. It was then they stated that Mrs. Miller drew her gun. They all denied robbing him. Two of the women, Irene Granderson, and Asley Brown, admitted that they attacked Fields when they were in the patrol wagon headed for the Sixth precinct. They declared that the policeman, riding with them, told them to hit him. Judge Given dismissed the case against Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Moten, but fined the other women $15 each. Attorney Armond W. Scott appealed for the defendants. CURRENT TOPICS Liberal Progressive Independent Subscription Rates: One Year, $2.50; Six Months $1.25.

Many things go on in Washington that were it any other city residents would have to give an account of themselves. Among these things you'll find the ever-increasing pastime of acting snobby. You'll find those among us—and we are many—putting on airs, acting upstage, hemming ourselves in and shutting other folks out for practically no reason at all. Being Washingtonians we suffer, nay thrive on a superiority complex. We find ourselves doing proper things. We find ourselves considering ourselves better than other folk and they in turn are quite certain that they are better than we. Doctors, lawyers, ministers, teachers, government clerks—ah ha—are the cream all others are skimmed milk. But honestly, isn't it a lot of baloney? Isn't it dreadfully boring keeping up the sham? Don't we feel ashamed of ourselves when we—doctors, lawyers, ministers, teachers, and government clerks—look in the mirror, tear away our mask of haughtiness and view ourselves as a most despicable set of parasites? Strong language Mr. Diplomat. Dare you say that we have no right to aloofness? Look at our diplomas. Examine our fraternity pins if you will. Count our degrees. Enter our homes, observe, sir, our tastes, our culture and marvel at our appreciation of the finer things of life. Scrutinize our women, they toil not neither do they spin, yet millionaires in all their glory are not arrayed like one of them. No right to aloofness? Pooh, pooh! on you. You know ont whereof you speak. Do we not slave long hours in the days in the school rooms, trying to instill a small portion of our knowledge and refinement into those of lower station than ourselves? Paid we are, but is this not a mere pittance compared to the sacrifice we make by intermingling? Surely, sir, even though we do live off of the earnings of lowly tax payers teachers can not be called parasites. Well spoken, good sister, let me now speak and instil the grace of God in the heart of this infidel who speaketh blasphemy. Call you a shepherd of the Lord a parasite? Yea verily, we toil not in fields with the ungodly, and we confess that our maintenance comes from the faithful followers of the low who labor among the pots and pans of their masters, but do we not visit the sick, bury the dead and perform the holy sacrament of marriage for a small additional fee? Call you us parasites? Such accusations will commit your good forever into the bottomless pit of the damned. Your words, sir, placing physicians, the most noble of all the professions, in the category of parasites, reveals you are suffering from a very serious mental disturbance. Has this malady such a hold upon your system that you cannot see that we, of all people are entitled to homage? Did we not pass many examinations? Can we not write things of no consequence in such language that the layman is awe struck with our deepness and leaves our presence much relieved, both physically and financially?

PRIZE WINNER A prize of one dollar is awarded to Emerson R. Parker, of 2231 Thirteenth street, northwest. He is requested to come to the office for his prize. Ask for Mr. Frazier. They tell me a new little baby Is coming with laughter so free, I wonder if it'll be a bad boy Or a good little girl like me. I hope it will be a wee girlie With dimples and cooings and curls. And nurse it for mother all day, But a boy I am sure would be naughty, Always wanting to have his own way. He'd want ships and horses and soldiers.— Play battles and airships and such. And he'd rip up my playhouse and dollies As in war—and he'd be—oh, so rough. One's body is not clean if the teeth are not clean. When we fail to respect ourselves we cannot demand respect from others. To know the history of one's own race makes it easier to forge ahead. Aim to own your own home, when you grow into manhood. Be it ever so humble there is no place like home—but try to let it be your own home. NO PRIZE THIS WEEK There will be no prizes awarded this week.

ALWAYS THE FINEST HAIR DRESSING EASY AND PLEASANT TO USE DISCRIMINATION IS BARED IN SEA DISASTER Members of Crew Tell How White Officers Prevented Negroes From Being NEW YORK.-Their tongues at last untied by the slander of the white capitalist press and the attempt of the Lamport & Holt Company to make them the goats of the tragic disaster of the S. S. Vestris, the Negro members of the Vestris crew told two reporters of the Crusader News Service the true story of criminal negligence and mismanagement which led up to the sea horror. Irving Dunjee and Fred Harlow, two Crusader News Service men, experienced the utmost difficulty in getting within speaking distance of the shipwrecked Negro workers, who were corralled in a hall of the Seamen's Church Institute at 20 South street; an institution supported by subsidies from big shipping companies as a strike-breaking agency. These men, who the latest reports show, played the part of real heroes, are virtually held as prisoners and not allowed to leave the building.

Tell of Prejudice The ship was in bad condition generally, declared Joshua Ford, Negro fireman aboard the Vestris, for the last five years. "When we left Hoboken, coal port our starboard was partly open and ship had three feet of water in the bilge, waving a pistol at him. The passengers getting ready to take to the boats. The Captain and officers at no time gave orders to lower away. In fact, it seemed as if the officers were dazed. "While on deck I saw a friend of mine, Miss Henrietta Cubbins, of Brooklyn (one of those rescued and in St. Vincent Hospital) who had fallen and hurt her hip. I picked her up and was about to place her in a boat when the Chief Reefer Engineer rushed up to me with an ax in his hand and shouted, 'Go below, you black dog.' Officer Used Pistol Donald Holder, another fireman declared that he saw one colored passenger trying to get into a boat with his wife and child. One of the Junior Officers ordered him out, wavin ga pistol at him. The passenger was not saved, but the officer was." Tells of Bravery One of the rescued women, Mrs. Cline Slaughter, told how Leester Watson, Negro member of the crew, had kept her head above water for hours while she was afloat, unconscious in a life-jacket. And all the while six of his ribs had been crushed in. Would Not Save Woman Would Not Save Woman On the other hand, cases of discrimination and cruelty on the part of the white officers and passengers toward Negroes were many. In one case, white passengers in a lifeboat, sighting two people drifting in the sea, one of them a Negro stewardess, had volunteered to take the white man, a passenger, aboard, but had refused to consider aiding the Negro woman worker. It was only after repeated entreaties that they were finally prevailed to take her on board. Workers Get "Dole" Another sordid feature of the disaster is the fact disclosed by the colored crew, that the Lamport & Holt Company, in its miserable munificence, had given each of the surviving workers the measly sum of $10 each. Not even those who were crippled for life received more than this. Ten dollars to pay for the loss of a limb! Sailors were indignant yesterday at this example of the greed of the ship owners. "Well, we didn't expect more than that from the skunks," they said.

JURY OUT FIVE HOURS IN TAXI CAB DEATH A Police Court jury, Tuesday, convicted Robert A. Dunn, white taxi-cab driver, on a charge of operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor. Dunn was called upon to face the police court proceedings when the grand jury, hearing his case, upon the recommendation of a coroner's jury refused to indict him, on a charge of manslaughter in connection with the death, December 31, of James W. Saunders, a Negro. Saunders' death, according to the findings of the coroner's jury, was due to an accident at Fifth street and Massachusetts avenue, northwest, in which the two men figured. It ordered him held for the action and investigation of the grand jury. Following his release by that body, Assistant Corporation Counsel Chester H. Gray, ordered him held to face the driving while drunk charge. The jury found him guilty after five hours deliberation.

OFFICER SUSPENDED IN SHOOTING Shoots Woman to Prove His Authority After Entering Home ALEXANDRIA, Va.—Citizens of both races are much incensed over the brutal shooting of Nannie Davis, of 409 South Alfred street, who was seriously shot by motorcycle Patrolman Harry Eberhart, white, without provocation, Monday. According to the story of the victim, Eberhart forcefully entered her home and when she raised an objection he threatened to shoot her. The woman defied him to harm her, whereupon Eberhart is alleged to have said, "You don't believe I will shoot you, do you?" He then pulled the trigger of his revolver, the bullet taking effect in the woman's body. Says It Was Accident Mrs. Davis was rushed to the Alexandria Hospital, where she is reported in a serious condition. Eberhart said that the woman took his revolver from the holster on his motorcycle when he parked the vehicle near her home, and it was accidentally discharged. Captain W. W. Campbell suspended Eberhart from the force pending an investigation of the affair. FREEDMEN'S NURSES ATTEND TEA At the tea given by Mrs. George B.

POLICE BREAK UP BALL WHEN NEGROES ATTEND PITTSBURGH, Pa. (CNS)—The police arm of the employing class reached out on the night of November 10, to break up a dance held by the Young Workers (Communist) Party in a hall at 805 James street because Negro and white workers were fraternalising and dancing together. During the dance a policeman appeared at the door and demanded to see the permit for the dance. A member of the committee immediately produced the permit to the satisfaction of the officer. A half hour later a patrol wagon arrived and 15 policemen entered the hall, dispersed the crowd and broke up the dance. The Sergeant in charge of the squad was asked to return the permit as the matter would go to court but this he refused to do and stated that all necessary reasons for breaking up the dance would be given at the Northside Police Station. When the committee interviewed Superintendent of the police, Chass. Faulkner, he stated that he would not permit a dance at which white and colored people were present. When asked was the action of the police in accord with the law, he insisted that he would break up any gathering of both races. NEW CHEMISTRY TEACHER APPOINTED AT HOWARD U. John Wesley de Huguley, formerly of Livingstone College, has been appointed instructor in Chemistry at Howard University. Mr. de Huguley is a graduate of Harvard University and a member of the Boylestone Chemistry Club of that institution. He has taught at Wiley College and at the State A. & M. College of Louisiana. The particular courses in which he is in charge are those in inorganic chemistry. It w.s. necessary to secure the service of Mr. de Huguley by reason of the absence of Professor Cooper being at Cornell University working for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under a General Education Board Fellowship, and also of the absence of Assistant Professor R. Percy Barnes, who is pursuing a similar course at Harvard University, also under a General Education Board Fellowship. BANDITS VISIT CHICAGO BALLROOM; GET $5,000 CHICAGO, Ill.—Entering the Savoy Ball Room, here early last Tuesday morning, three bandits, evidently well versed in their profession, lay in hiding and awaited the arrival of the president of the corporation to arrive when they forced him, at pistol point, to open the safe from which they took about $5,000 and made their getaway. I. G. Faggin, the head of the organization, described the three gunmen as Caucasians of medium build and age.

Washington, an expressman, living at 604 L street, northwest, took the stand as defendant in a larceny charge in which Roscoe Millard, 2618 Wade road, southeast, was the complaining witness. Washington was arraigned on accusation that he had stolen and sold a load of wood that belonged to Millard, when the latter refused to pay him in advance for hauling it. Washington drove off with the wood, and Millard saw no more of him until, three weeks later he encountered Washington at Sixth and L streets, northwest. In his testimony Washington told the court that he had been arraigned twice before on a similar charge when he hauled a lady's sewing machine and she refused to pay him for the hauling. He said that at that time judge ordered her to pay him, but that until now she had not done so and he still had the sewing machine. On another occasion he hauled a woman's piano for her, and she also refused to pay him, and he kept the piano and was arrested. Washington was fined "twenty- Washington was fined "twenty-five dollars or thirty days." Neighborhood Quarrel May Cost Man Eye Loss of an eye may result from an altercation with a neighbor, two weeks ago, according to reports of Dr. William J. Snow, of the Episcopal Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital, following his examination of the optic of John H. Hawkins, 48, of 36 O'Brien's court, northwest, last Saturday evening. Hawkins, police of the Second Precinct say, engaged in an altercation with John Matthews, 27 O'Brien's court, on October 27. The latter struck Hawkins a blow in the eye, and as a result the victim applied to the Episcopal Hospital for medical attention. Dr. Snow rendered first aid, and ordered the man to report for further clinical treatment. When he appeared at the institution, Saturday, the surgeon announced that removal of the eye would be necessary. Matthews, meanwhile, is being held by police. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1928 ELEVATOR MAN DIES SUDDENLY Opening the door of his elevator as it descended to the main floor of the Sherman Apartments, 1101 Fifteenth street, northwest, where he was employed as an operator, Allen Arthur Simmons, 35, fell to the floor dead. Simmons lived at 2905 Eleventh street, northwest. He had been employed at the Sherman Apartments little over four months. The incident occurred shortly after 2 o'clock. Dr. Rutkoski, of the Emergency Hospital staff, responding with the hospital ambulance, pronounced life extinct, immediately upon his arrival at the scene. The man is believed to have been a victim of high blood pressure, and stomach trouble.

Stomach Disorders First Revealed by Coated Tongue Your tongue is nothing more than the upper end of your stomach and intestines. It is the first thing your doctor looks at. It tells at a glance the condition of your digestive system—and physicians say that 90% of all sickness starts with stomach and bowel trouble. A coated tongue is a danger signal of those digestive disorders which lead to so many kinds of serious illness. It tells why the least exertion tires you out; why you have pains in the bowels, gas, sour stomach, dizzy spells. Coating on the tongue is a sign that you need Tanlac—the medicine which has helped thousands who were physical wrecks from stomach and bowel troubles—who had "tried everything" in vain and about given up hope.

PEOPLES DRUG STORES "All Over Town" WILKINSON GIVES CAUSES FOR FAILURES Assistant Superintendent Urges A.M. Degree for Elementary Teachers Three problems were given major consideration last year by the administrative officers of divisions 10 to 13 of the public schools of the District of Columbia, according to the annual report of Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent, to Frank W. Ballou, superintendent. They were character education, retardation, and improvement of instruction. Retardation is a serious problem in the senior high schools, Mr. Wilkinson reported. Principals and faculties are making studies of the problem to determine underlying causes and to discover remedial measures, the report states. General science, French and mathematics, in order, furnish the highest percentages of failures, it is stated. Many Causes Advanced Many Causes Advanced The principal reasons for failures given by pupils are: insufficient time for study, discouragement, dislike of subject, dislike of teacher, laziness, timid about answering, absence of books, absence because of personal illness, home conditions not conducive to study, outside work after school hours, not knowing how to study, too many subjects, assignments too long, and lack of interest. Improvement Noted Mr. Wilkinson reported that real progress has been made in the improvement of instruction. The faculty and principal of the Miner Normal School, Mr. Wilkinson reported, are elated over the results of the first year of the three-year course of study recently prescribed by the Board of Education. No Graduates from Miner Normal Attention is directed in the report to the fact that the break in the continuity of graduating classes from the normal schools required the Board of Education to give consideration to the procedure in filling vacancies in teaching positions in the elementary schools for the school year, 1929-1930. There will be no graduating class in June, 1929. The school board decided to appoint teachers in order of ranks from a five-year consolidated eligible list of graduates not yet appointed to the service of the local public schools. Should Raise Standard It is the opinion of his office, Mr. Wilkinson states, that since a three-year course is required for teachers of elementary schools the school administration should give immediate consideration to the advisability of raising the requirements for teachers of the normal schools. He suggests that the de- A Tempting Assortment THIN SHELL Hard Candy 75c Jar 39c Not a single solid piece of hard the jar.

"Superintendents, supervisors and principals in ever increasing numbers," he reports, "are seeking assistance of the placement bureau in procuring teachers." The bureau, he says, is a chief reliance of many graduates in securing teaching employment outside the District of Columbia. ATTACKED BY UNKNOWN Several men whom he can neither describe nor identify attacked Jerome A. Wharton, 35 years old, of 312 Florida avenue, northwest, at the corner of Third and S streets northwest, last Saturday night, according to a report received at the Eighth precinct over the weekend. Wharton was taken to Freedmen's Hospital by Officer R. L. Jones, of the precinct, and treated by physicians there for lacerations of the forehead and eye.

As each of the funeral coaches passed the house, a gong was sounded, and the men went to the hand salute. Mr. Williams is survived by his widow, two daughters, Mrs. Martha Carter, and Mrs. Louise Boyd, and one son, Sumner.

She pictured stories of daring and fearlessness, literally unknown prior to the advent of "Dan" Williams into the life of Truck Company Number two, at present located at Connecticut avenue and M street, northwest. Two smash-ups, resulting from collisions, were recited, during which Mr. Williams barely escaped death.

Too much praise cannot be given to Miss Genevieve E. Smith, president, for her diligence and anxiety for the success of this project. The house drive is still going on and donations and gifts will be highly appreciated. The Rho Psi Phi Medical Sorority marks a new episode in the history of Greek letter societies, being the first and only incorporated sorority for our medical women. On January 4, 1922, a group of professional women in this city conceived the idea of organizing a medical sorority. Mary Jane Watkins, D.D.S., with thirty-five enthusiastic co-helpers worked earnestly toward the perfection of this organization. Thus in 1922, the Rho Psi Phi Medical Sorority was established, protected by its chart, and governed by the articles in its constitution. Rho Psi Phi aims for scholarship, literary development, finer womanhood and above all exemplifies service and humanity. From this nucleus, Alpha Chapter, branches Beta Chapter in Los Angeles, California; Emily Childress, Ph.C., president; Gamma Chapter in Pittsburgh, Pa., Mary Jane Watkins, D.D.S., president, and Delta Chapter in Atlanta, Ga., S.

Quotes Congressional Report The Supreme Court declared that "We assume that the legislature had before it such information as was readily available, including the published report of a hearing before a committee of the House of Representatives of the 57th Congress relating to the formation, purposes and activities of the Ku Klux Klan. White Supremacy The report states that the order was a revival of the Ku Klux Klan of an earlier time with additional features borrowed from the Know Nothing and the A.P.A. orders of other periods; that its membership was limited to native born, gentile, protestant whites; that in part of its constitution and printed creed it proclaimed the widest freedom for all and full adherence to the Constitution of the United States, in another exacted of its members an oath to shield and preserve 'white supremacy', and in still another declared a person actively opposing its principles to be 'a dangerous ingredient in the body politic of our country and an enemy to the weal of our national commonwealth'; that it was conducting a crusade against Catholics, Jews and Negroes and stimulating religious and race prejudices; that it was striving for political power and assuming a sort of guardianship over the administration of local, State and national affairs; and that at times it was taking into its own hands the punishment of what some of its members conceived to be crimes.

Counsel Employed The three professors will be represented at the hearing by counsel, Alexander Wolf appearing as their attorney. President Johnson will also have counsel present representing the university, it is reported. His selection of counsel like in the mandamus proceedings brought by Clarence I. Smith for admittance in the medical school, will be from outside the law faculty, it is also reported. Hearing Postponed The hearing was scheduled for last Friday. President Johnson at the last moment advised their counsel that the executive committee would not be able to hear the cases because of the mass of business it had to consider that afternoon. Mr. Wolf insisted upon the setting of another date and Monday afternoon was agreed upon. May Seek Legal Relief If the executive committee fails to settle these cases satisfactorily, it is almost certain that the courts will be resorted to. Both mandamus proceedings and damage suits will be instituted, it is believed. The members of the executive committee are President Johnson, Dr. Michel O. Dumas, Dr. Jesse E.

COURTS REVIEWING CHARGES Conviction of $5,000 Embezzlement Charge May Be Upheld by Supreme Court CAUSED INSANITY HERE The Bishop C. M. Grace, head of the House of Prayer, may face a prison term of from one to three years on charges of embezzlement of $5,000, unless the Supreme Court reverses the sentence of Judge Oglesly, who imposed the sentence several months ago. The case is being reviewed by the Supreme Court of North Carolina this week. It is alleged that "Bishop" Grace caused considerable friction in circles in Charlotte in 1926 where he conducted a tent meeting in the interest of "The Church of the Rock of the Apostolic Faith," which he claims he founded. He claims to have churches in New England, the District of Columbia and various other parts of the country. He recently baptized between 700 and 1,000 persons in Hampton Roads at the boat harbor in Newport News. Caused Trouble Here Bishop Grace came into prominence in Washington recently when it was shown that three persons had lost their minds over the "Bishop's" fantastic religious practices. One man died in a local hospital for the insane. Teachings of the "Bishop" were openly condemned by the leading clergymen of the city who claimed that he was leading church members astray.

DIAMOND COURT Fisk Suffers at Hands o Tennessee Team Holds On One Resulting in Def Backs in Fisk Suffers 7-0 Licking at Hands of H. U. Bisons Fisk Suffers 7-0 Licking at Hands of H. U. Bisons Tennessee Team Holds On All But One Occasion, That One Resulting in Defeat. Blue and White Backs in Limelight Fisk, the same team which barely lost to Tuskegee; Fisk, the same combination of hard working, determined football artists which outplayed the chesty Wilberforce aggregation; Fisk, with the stellar forward passing machine of Yost and Thornhill, was the latest victim of the Howard University grid warriors, at the Howard Stadium, last Saturday afternoon. The score was 7-0, and this difference is indicative of the margin between the two contestants. The Bison touchdown came late in the second quarter after several feints at scoring earlier in the game. The ball went into the local's possession following an exchange of punts, in which Yost, kicking for the visitors, placed the oval in midfield. Starting a march, the Blue and White netted five first downs, the last of which took them over the final ribbon. Coles and Ross alternated in this march to score, while Marsrall and Payne, the other two members of the Pison "poney backfield," took minor roles. Payne drop-kicked for the extra point. Yost was the bulwark of the Nashville offense, and his superb punting served in many instances to stem the launching of a Blue and White attack. **Howard** Fisk Simpson R.E. Brooks Webb R.T.

HIGH SCHOOLS IN READINESS FOR BIG GAME HIGH SCHOOLS IN READINESS FOR BIG GAME Orange and Blue Eleven Picked As Favored 1923—Dunbar, 27; Armstrong, 0 1924—Armstrong, 5; Dunbar, 0 1925—Dunbar, 13; Armstrong, 0 1926—Armstrong, 6; Dunbar, 6 1927—Armstrong, 20; Dunbar, 0 But this is 1923—say both the Dunbar and Armstrong High School teams as they put the finishing touches on their grind in preparation for the annual gridiron championship battle which is to be waged, Monday afternoon, at the Howard University Stadium. Each eleven promises that dusk of November 26 will find them sporting the title of Interscholastic Champions. Armstrong is considered the favorite. Confidence in them, however, is not as manifest as it was prior to the loss of several of their star players. The most serious setback was experienced when "Chief" Armstrong, perhaps one of the shiftiest ball-carryers ever developed in local scholastic circles, was declared ineligible. The Poets, though nursing a rather weak offensive combination, sports a fairly well balanced defense. The players themselves, backed by the coaches and student body assert that their chance for victory is as good as that of their O street rivals. BEARS AND STONEWALLS IN CORELESS TIE The Teddy Bear and Stonewall football teams battled to a 0-0 tie in their annual gridiron clash at the Monument Lot, last Sunday afternoon. A huge crowd took advantage of an ideal day, and turned to witness the proceedings. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1928 SPORT REVIEW Washington Tribune E. B. O. OFFICIALS BOYCOTT REED Eastern Board Football Officials have announced to the Howard University Board of Athletic Control their refusal to work in any of the remaining grid games of the season in which Neville Reed, Philadelphia free lance, appears as an arbiter. The decision was reached at a meeting of the board, last October 30. The reason for this refusal on the part of organized officials to serve in games with Reed is said to be Reed's failure to cooperate, his manner of encouraging players to dispute the decision of a fellow-official, and his habit of ruling on plays which do not come within his jurisdiction. Several local E. B. O. men have already indicated that they will not be on hand for the Thanksgiving game if the Howard University authorities insist on using the Philadelphian, as has previously been planned. mond for Stokes, Evans for Wingo, Simpson for Mack, Bass for Gee, Mack or Sallie, Doyle for Sanders, Touchdown — Ross. Punt after touchdown — Payne. Referee — Lawson (C.C.N.Y.). Umpire — Reed (Temple). Head linesman — Wright (Hampton). KID CHOCOLATE SCORES 32nd CONSECUTIVE WIN NEW YORK CITY. — Jackie Schweitzer, local boxing idol, was the thirty-second successive victim of Kid Chocolate, sensational Cuban bantamweight, who pouched him over in the sixth round of their match at St. Nicholas' Arena, here, last Monday night. The fight gave Kid Chocolate his twenty-eighth consecutive victory by knockout. A.A.U. Cross-Country Title Won by Moore Gus Moore, sensational young distance runner of Brooklyn, N.Y., won the National Senior Amateur Athletic Union cross-country title when he led a field of 59 runners into the finish at the annual six-mile grind, held in Van Courtland Park, New York, last week. The former University of Pittsburgh harrier finished 200 yards ahead of Verne Booth, of the Milrose A.A., former Johns Hopkins star, Franklin T. Osgood, New York A.C., was third. Moore's time was 31 minutes 20 1-5 seconds, as compared to the record of 29:27 set in 1925 by Ritola, who captured the championship in five of the past six years. Ritola did not defend the title this year. NEW YORK-Although "Bulldog" Williams, former Howard University star end, is said to have broken up an attempted College Point Professional Eleven forward pass, the referee allowed a subsequent touchdown to be counted. The game ended in favor of the Pros over the All-Southern Collegians 6-0. KID CHOCOLATE SIGNS FOR THREE BOUTS NEW YORK—Kid Chocolate, flashy Cuban bantamweight, has undertaken an ambitious program for this season. He has signed to fight in Madison Square Garden with Joe Scaffaro, Archie Bell and Kid Francis. The dates have not not been selected. THANKSGIVING NIGHT November 29, 1928 - - - - 8 to ?

COMMUNITY FIVE PLAYS OPENER IN BALTIMORE The Community Athletic Association Yellowjackets, sensational young basketball performers of this city, will make their 1928 debut on Friday night, December 7, when they meet the fast Baltimore Scholastics at the remodelled New Albert Auditorium, Baltimore. The Scholastics as a team name is new to the Baltimore public, but the individuals are well known as among the most capable court artists in the Monumental City. A large number of the 1927 Athenian Club have signed with the Scholastic organization. Chief among these are "Chink" Wyatt, and Buddy Ailor, forward combination par excellence. WILLOW TREE DEFEATS ANCIENT RIVALS The Willow Tree A.C., idols of southwest, emerged the victors over their old rivals, the Stonewall A.C. in a bitterly contested tilt played before approximately 3,000 people last Sunday. The game was a thriller from start to finish. "Strawberry" Butler, diminutive quarterback of the Willow Tree eleven, provided the greatest thrill when in the last quarter he dashed 65 yards to a touchdown in a brilliant exhibition of broken field running. Force Conquers Union- Panthers, 13-6 And the Panther came to the Bull Dog's den. He roared and howled. He scratched and he sputtered, but the kinetic and dissilient tenuity of the Bull Dog showed him who was who. Through displaying a decidedly superior brand of football, the Big Green team of Wilberforce was able to commandeer only a 13 to 6 victory over the Virginia Union Panther in an intersectional clash. The occasion was the Home Coming of the Ohio institution and many alumni trekked back to their Alma Mater to witness the tilt. Wilberforce Union Terrell L.E. Booth Calloway L.T. Holmes Lewis L.G.

McFarlane TIGERS TO ENGAGE ALABAMA NORMAL TUSKEEGE INSTITUTE, Ala. —The Tuskegee Tigers will engage in a major football contest when they tackle the State Normal School Hornets in Cramton Bowl, Montgomery, Alabama, on November 24. Each year, the Tigers' margin of victory has been less and less and according to the rate of decrease the Hornets should emerge victorious from the fray this year. LaBARBA NEXT ON LIST OF KID CHOCOLATE NEW YORK—Kid Chocolate, sensational Cuban bantamweight, added another victim to his long and growing list by obtaining the judge's decision over Pinkie Silverberg, St. Nicholas Arena, here last Thursday. Following this bout the Cuban battler was signed to meet Fidel LaBarba, former world's flyweight champion, in a ten-round bout at the New York Coliseum during the last week in January. EXTRA POINT MARGIN IN TEDDY BEAR WIN The extra point after touchdown gained the verdict for the Teddy Bear A.C. in a 7-6 contest with the Washington Pirates at the Monument Lot, last Sunday afternoon. "Chief" Armstrong, former Tech backeld ace performed in the line-up of the Buccaneer crew, and inserted some nifty balloting in spite of the fact that the Bears were continually watching him. GORMAN FLOORED SIX TIMES BY GODFREY PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 15. —George Godfrey, 240½, knocked out Bud Gorman, 204, of Chicago, at the arena here Monday night in the third round of the feature bout. Gorman was floored once in the first round and five times in the third round before Referee Pop O'Brien mercifully stopped it. Gorman had nothing but courage, and he had lots of that. However, Godfrey's greater weight and superior hitting and boxing, were factors too great to overcome. At no time was the issue in doubt. Al Walker of Jacksonville surprised the highly-touted Big Bill Hartwell of Kansas City by not only staying ten rounds, but by also winning the decision of the officials. It was a hard, rough fight, and the best attraction of the evening. Paolino Uzeudun was at the ring-side and challenged the winner previous to the Godfrey-Gorman bout. Taylor and Gunnis are working on terms for the match—Rollo Wilson, Courier. MORGAN BEATS STORER BY 19-0 SCORE Storer College of Harpers Ferry, W. Va., came to Baltimore with blood in her eyes. The team was full of fight, and played a clean, hard game, but their best was not good enough. Morgan emerged on the long end of a 19 to 0 score. Morgan Turpin . . . L.E. . . .

The Jersey boys won on super-line play and defensive work in general, although they were constantly bothered by the accurate forward passing of St. John.

Coach Hamblin's West Virginians are confident that they can revenge their defeat of 1926, when Ritchie, Force quarterback, drop-kicked a field goal from the 33-yard mark to give his team the verdict.

SEVEN LICHTMAN FIVE IS DRUBBED 28-16 IN OPENER Work of Davis Futile As Athenians Score Decisive Win BALTIMORE, Md.—The local Athenian basketball team opened its 1928 court season by conquering the Lichtman Theatre Players, Washington, by a score of 28-16, here last Friday night. A capacity crowd shook the rafters of the remodeled New Albert Auditorium as the Greeks gradually piled up a lead on the slower visitors. "Rube" Hackett, Billy Baskerville and Bill Todd, forward wall of the local machine, showed up well, and it was largely because of them that the Capital City team was so easily vanquished. Ed Davis, stellar floorman of the Virginia Seminary and College 1927 quint, appeared in the line-up of the Lightman tosseres, and was without doubt the best of the losing individuals.

Affairs Muddled According to the Equity offices the affairs of the "Keep Shufflin'" company are in uncertain condition. Frank R. Dare, representative of Equity, said all efforts to locate Leo Leavitt, manager of the ostensible owners of the show, the Beekman Corporation, had failed. The corporation had offices in New York with Rothstein. $7,400 Missing Dare said the show took in $7,400 last week but no salaries were paid. However, he said a $5,000 bond, posted in New York, would take care of all but the three colored stage hands and 13 orchestra men—they are not Equity members and were not included in the "fare and distribution." "Keep Shufflin'" on Saturday finished the first week of a scheduled 14-night engagement.

He told police of the Eighth precinct who investigated the case, that he could not identify his assailant. A look-out for the man has thus far been futile. DUNBAR THEATRE R. H. MURRAY, Mgr.

Patrons of the Howard Theatre last week who heard the deep melodious voice of Ernest Whitman, star of "Fancy Trimmings," lead several Jubilee numbers, little realized that they were listening to a former ordained minister, who deserted the church for the stage. A long departure from a clergyman's collar and swallow tail coat was the role of the dreaming ill kempt, ragged dope fiend in his opening number entitled "King for a Day." It is hard to conceive of the prancing, jazz singing leading man of many musical comedy successes as the shepherd of a devoted little flock out in Oklahoma City. Went on Concert Tour Whitman graduated from Tuskegee Institute in 1906, where he studied among other things Theology. He returned to his native state and there served for one year as a pastor of a small A.M.E. Church. While at Tuskegee Whitman, who is six foot and tips the scales well over the two hundred mark, was a football star. While pastoring his vocal proclivities served him in good stead and he was induced to go on a concert tour. His success in this field led him to desert the ministry all together and he finally drifted into musical comedy, joining the big road show of Billy King in Kansas City, Mo., in 1912. Since then he has been starred in "Follow Me," "Lucky Sambo," "Broadway Rastus," and has played in vaudeville over the Pantages circuit. "There is a similarity between the Negro ministry and the Negro stage," Mr. Whitman declared. "You suffer in both, but on the stage you can suffer and do as you please, while in the ministry you have to do as people want you to and suffer too." Two Boys Held As Pocketbook Snatchers Two school boys are being held at the House of Detention by the Central Bureau police on a charge of robbery, growing out of the alleged snatching of a pocketbook. Miss Mary Curtis, 2370 Champlain street, northwest, the victim, has identified the two boys as the same who, on November 11, snatched her purse as she was walking on Euclid street near Ninth, and escaped. The boys admitted to Detective Sergeants Paul Jones and Howard Smith that they had committed the crime. They led the police to the spot where they are said to have thrown the pocketbook after removing about eight dollars in cash. The purse was not recovered, but some personal effects of Miss Curtis' were found. One boy was arrested by the detectives as he was on his way through an alley near Twelfth and W streets, northwest, Monday afternoon. The other boy was turned over to Eighth Precinct authorities by his father.

Billie Dove and Rin-Tin-Tin At the Republic Billie Dove in "The Night Witch," with synchronized music and sound effects, will be the feature attraction at the Republic Theatre on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, November 24, 25, 26. An intensely dramatic climax laid in a powerful story of unusual setting makes "The Night Witch," a highly worthwhile screen production. He can do everything. And now hear him talk! Who?
