KINGMAN PARK CITIZENS ASK FOR MORE FIREMEN
Better Schools and Concrete Stadium for Dunbar Demanded
The regular monthly meeting of the Kingman Park Citizens' Association was held at the Mt. Pisgah Baptist Church, Monday, September 9. In the absence of the president, Mrs. Gertrude B. Cope, the vice-president, Mrs. Adlee E. Thomas, presided. Mr. Franklin, of the committee on public safety reported that "stop signs" would be placed near the portable schools at the corner of Twentient and Rosedale streets. These signs would slow up the traffic for the protection of the children attending the schools. John W. Baddy, chairman of the executive committee of the association, spoke on the great injustice which colored people are suffering because of a "Jim Crow" fire company. Mr. Baddy pointed out the fact that no colored persons are appointed because there are no vacancies in the one colored company. He said that since colored people form one-fourth of the population of Washington there
Coolidge Makes $100,000 In Six Months
Ex-President Calvin Coolidge has made more in six months as a writer than he received for a whole year as President of these United States. As President he received a salary of $75,000 per year. As a writer for magazines Mr. Coolidge has made $100,000 during his first half year. He is also a director of a big insurance company, and Mrs. Coolidge is reported to have contracts, the income from them if placed at 5 per cent would more than supply her annual outlay for clothes. Being President, however, increased the price for the literary product of Mr. Coolidge.

Man Goes Fishing; Drowns
Sunday morning, about 8 o'clock, Harbor Police found the body of Wallace Coleman, of 819 Twenty-fifth street, northwest, who left his home, Saturday afternoon to go fishing in a small row boat. The body was located in the Georgetown Channel at the foot of Twenty-seventh street, northwest. They had been dragging not far from the empty boat in which he sat fishing.
Search was started upon the report of Coleman's step-son, Ernest Brown, who said his step-father failed to return home as planned when he left. The police expressed the belief that the man apparently fell asleep in the boat, and slipped into the water to his death, when the swells from larger craft plying the river had rocked the boat.
R. I. AVE. CITIZENS WALTER L. COHEN OPPOSE CHANGE NOT IN RACE FOR IN ZONING LIBERIAN POST
Many Who Signed for Change Withdrew Their Signatures Later
Several citizens and residents in the vicinity of Rhode Island avenue and Columbia street, appeared before the Zoning Commission in the Board Room of the Municipal Building last Wednesday morning and bitterly protested the application of Mrs. Thomas J. MacNamee, white of 938 Rhode Island avenue, northwest, to change her residence and premises, 1546 Columbia street, northwest, from residential to commercial zone. It is reported that Mrs. MacNamee has vainly tried for the past few years to sell her holdings there, but without success, and that the change would result in the erection of a gasoline station or dance hall.
The citizens were headed by Raymond H. Murray, Dr. H. C. Scurlock, and Dr. W. L. Smith. E. F. Harris drafted the petition of protest and obtained the signatures of the residents and property owners residing within the limits surrounding the lots proposed to be changed. Many had signed consenting to the change but withdrew their signatures on a petition submitted to them by Mr. Harris.
In presenting the petitions at the hearing Mr. Harris stated that the housing problem as affecting the race in this city since the war had been tremendous. That no sooner had one put probably his life's earnings into what he hoped to be a comfortable home for the remainder of his days, he would soon be confronted with the erection of some business enterprise which would in many instances detract from the surrounding home comforts.
Thos. A. Johnson spoke for an individual owner as well as Mrs. Mary Ferguson Thompson for the Y.W.C.A.
MINER NORMAL STUDENT BURIED
Funeral services for Miss Elizabeth George, 18-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John S.

Burial was in Mt. Zion Cemetery. Miss George died in Garfield Hospital at 8 o'clock last Saturday morning. She had undergone an operation by Dr. Charles Stanley White, local representative, of Mayo Brothers, famous surgeons of Rochester, Minn., on September 10, for a toxic-goitre. She had been in the hospital a month when she died. Surviving Miss George are her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John S. George; three sisters, Mrs. Trevianon Guy, Mrs. Leo G.

Mortimer Harris Hurt In Automobile Accident
Mortimer M. Harris, living at 1727 U street, northwest, was seriously hurt in an auto accident on September 8, when the ear which he was driving skidded into a taxicab at Franklin and Paca streets, in Baltimore.
Mr. Harris suffered lacerations of the face and scalp, while Frank DeBrouse, white, driver of the cab, sustained a fractured left rib. The accident occurred during the heavy shower on Sunday. Mr. Harris was driving south on Paca and his wheels skidded as he attempted to stop for the cab at Franklin street. He was charged in traffic court with not having the right of way, and was forced to post bond for a later appearance.
Effort to Entice Louisianian Out of Federal Job Fails
Walter L. Cohen, comptroller of customs at New Orleans, La., is regarded as definitely out of consideration for appointment as United States Minister and Consul General to Liberia, it was learned, Thursday. The post is vacant by reason of the death of William T. Francis in Monrovia, in June. Clifton R. Wharton is the American charge de affaires at Monrovia since the death of Mr. Francis.
Mr. Cohen was proposed for the place by Emile Kuntz, Republican national committeeman for Louisiana. The desire behind the proposal of Mr. Cohen by Mr. Kuntz is regarded to be the creating of a vacancy in the office of comptroller general of customs at New Orleans, to which Mr. Kuntz wishes to have a white man appointed.
The age of Mr. Cohen was against him. He is 67 years old. Sending him to Liberia, a yellow-fever infested country, would be equivalent to sending him to his death, it being almost certain that he could not stand the climate.

MORE SEPARATE SCHOOLS LOOM IN INDIANAPOLIS
RETURNS FROM CONVENTION
DENIES FRICTION WITH PRESIDENT IN QUITTING
Was Serving Second Term As Alumni Rerpesenta- tive. Leaves Oct. 1
Dr. C. Sumner Wormley denied on Wednesday that his resignation from the board of trustees of Howard University was due to differences with other board members and President Mordecai W. Johnson over plans for the reorganization of the Dental College which are now being carried into effect.
When informed of the report and asked whether it was true, Dr. Wormley replied, "No. I simply resigned." He offered no explanation of his resignation and made no other comment.
Dr. Wormley submitted his resignation on September 5 to General John H. Sherburne, of Boston Mass., president of the board of trustees, to take effect October 1st.
His action was immediately attributed to a disagreement regarding the reorganization of the Dental College. Dr. J. B. Donawha, who became dean of the Dental College, July 1, refused to re-employ for the next school year seven dentists who were members of the dental faculty. They were part-time instructors. He replaced them with four full time instructors.
Opinions Differ
These faculty changes stirred up a hornet's nest and are threatening a division of Howard alumni with the younger dental graduates generally approving of the selection of Dean Donawha and the changes he is making, and the older dentists disapproving Donawha's selection and his changes. The older men were quick to seize upon Dr. Wormley's resignation. They asserted that he was not in sympathy with the program of reorganization of the Dental College. Opinion of the younger dentists is almost unanimous that the Dental College is in need of reorganization. They point out that it has not kept pace with the other schools and colleges of the university. The Medical College is a member of the Association of American Medical Colleges and rated Class A by the American Medical Association. The Law School is making application this fall for admission into the American Association of Law Schools and is meeting all requirements of Class A law schools. The Dental College is a Class F school, and that merely by sufferance, the younger dentists hold.
Political Patronage
Dental demonstrators represented so much political patronage, the dental demonstrators being paid $75 a month and having the privilege of coming and going at their will. The emplyment of full-time professors will relieve this condition.
Dr. Wormley has served one term of three years as a member of the board of trustees. He was first elected in 1925. He began his second term in July, 1928, and his term would expire in 1931. He was chosen as one of the alumni members of the board of trustees.
President Johnson was informed of the resignation of Dr. Wormley by General Sherburne. He expressed regret and denied that any disagreement was involved.
In a fight with a person whose name he refused to divulge, James Moten, 27, of 3009 Sherman avenue, was seriously cut about the head, arms, and back. The fight occurred on Tuesday, September 10.
Moten was taken to Freedmen's Hospital in the patrol wagon of No. 6 precinct, and was forced to remain there for further treatment.
VOTES FOR FIRST TIME
Mrs. Lucy J. Sanford, of the S. H. Dudley apartments, received her first thrill as a voter when she went up to Philadelphia. Tuesday, and cast her vote for the straight Republican ticket for the fall nomination for the primary election.
POLICE KNOCKS WOMAN DOWN IN THE STREET
Mrs. Anne E. Burleigh, of 115 T street, northwest, who was arrested on July 11th on the charge of being drunk, and assault and reported to be using dope, was dismissed by Justice Stafford Wednesday, September 11.
Mrs. Burleigh boarded a Georgia avenue car at Kennedy street, northwest for Seventh and Florida avenue, northwest. The conductor claimed she dropped a penny in the box, while she said she deposited a token. Policeman Dorrence happened to be on the car at the time. Mrs. Burleigh stated that she was looking around for the number of the car to report the case. Policeman said to her, according to her statement, "you will not need any number when I get through with you."
Torrence Brutal
When the car arrived at Seventh and Florida avenue, she arose to get off the car. Policeman Torrence grabbed her by the arm and pushed her toward the door, pulled her off the car and knocked her down with his fist, causing her to sprain her ankle. She was forced to lose four weeks from work and was under the care of her physician.
Mrs. Burleigh stated that when she was knocked down by Policeman Torrence, Mrs. Gertrude Brown, who was on the car and saw the brutal attack of the policeman, screamed. Traffic Policeman Miller came over to the car and helped her in the patrol when it arrived.
Mrs. Burleigh stated that when she was knocked down, she lost her glasses and that her face powder and puff fell to the street. She was booked at the 8th precinct as drunk, disorderly and with assault. She was put in a cell at the precinct and kept there from about 2:30 p.m. until about 3 o'clock the next morning before she was transferred to the house of detention. She was finally let out on deposit of $70 collateral.
Case Dismissed
Attorney Wm. Houston represented Mrs. Burleigh at court on August 23rd and Justice Stafford dismissed the case on September 11th.
Mrs. Burleigh has lived in Washington for a long time. She is a member of First Baptist Church in Georgetown; was president of the Ladies Progressive League for 7 years and is a member of the Household of Ruth and Eastern Star. She bears a good reputation and does not use dope nor drink.
She is going to make a complaint to the Police Board and may take legal steps against the policeman for his unofficial and brutal attack upon her. The conductor did not prefer charges against her.
UNDERGOES TWO MAJOR OPERATIONS
Mr. B. F. Morrison, of the Bureau of Education, is still confined at the Emergency Hospital, where he has been for the past five weeks during which time he has undergone two major operations successfully.

The association went on record as favoring either the establishing of two or more colored companies or the abolishing of the colored company and the appointment of colored people throughout the department. The motion as passed also asked for the appointment of more colored people to the police department.
As chairman of the committee on education and legislation, Mr. Baddy reported that the matter of teaching Negro history in the public schools of Washington was being studied. He said the school administration planned the building of an elementary school, a junior high school, and a health school on the land recently purchased on Benning road. Under no condition should the colored people consider the use of Blow School for colored children. The rapidly increasing population of this section makes the building of an elementary school imperative for the immediate future. The committee also favored the building of a concrete stadium at Dunbar High School. The stadium as approved should be

Weak and Nervous
MRS. S. Overton, of 1403 Thirteenth Ave., South Nashville, Tenn., writes: "About a year ago, I had a nervous breakdown. I had been very much worried, and this caused me to be extremely nervous, so that I did not sleep well at night. I would wake in the morning feeling worm and haggard. "I cannot say that I suffered so much pain—just weak, tired and run-down. I read so much about Cardul and how it helped other ladies, I decided to try it, as I was getting out of heart. "After my first bottle, I rested better at night, so felt better in day time. I kept on taking Cardul until I felt well and strong. Cardul did wonders for me." For sale by all doctors

COUNTY PAYS NEGRO'S JAIL BOARD
JACKSON, Ga—Butts County, Georgia, probably has made a record in boarding a prisoner in the jail of another county until his case can be finally disposed of. For the last four years Butts County has been paying Fulton County 60 cents a day for board for Tom King, a Negro prisoner who has been convicted of murder, but whose case is still before the courts.
King was arrested in November, 1925, charged with killing a Butts County police officer during a raid on a moonshine still. The Negro was convicted on circumstantial evidence and was sentenced to die March 12, 1926. He got a new ritual and was again convicted. This time he was sentenced to die March 18, 1827. He escaped through another error on the part of the State's attorney and had to be sentenced. September 21, 1928, was the last date assigned for his execution. Then his case got to the Supreme Court and up to this time it has failed to render a decision.
King stoutly maintains his inno-

cence. He was very well known around Indian Spring, a Georgia summer resort where he was for 25 years employed as a gardener, and he has a number of white friends who have come to his aid. It was thought best to pay his board in Fulton County jail because the Butts County jail is old and not as safe as it might be.

The preparation of a whole meal in the oven is the cheapest and simplest of all methods. The foods are placed in the oven and cooked for from two to four hours. The oven heat regulator does the watching and the housewife is left free to attend to other duties. She may even go shopping or to the movies, if she so desires.
General rules for oven meal cookery are as follows:
Where the meat is a roast, it must be seasoned before cooking.
This may be done in the broiling oven or in the upper oven at a temperature of 500 degrees, for a two-hour meal, 275 degrees for a three-hour meal, or 250 degrees for a four or five hour meal.
All foods must be closely covered during the cooking process.
A little water should be added to all fruits and vegetables excepting those containing a large amount of juice.

HAM AND POTATOES
EN CASSENOLE
Wash and peel the potatoes and cut them in thin slices. Place in a well greased casserole dish, filling the dish almost to the top. Put on thick slices of ham on the potatoes and pour one cupful of milk into the baling dish. Cover closely and bake for three hours in an oven with the heat control set at 275 degrees.
STRING BEANS
Wash beans and remove the ends and strings. Place in a baking dish. Add salt and a little water. Cover closely and bake in the oven with the ham and potatoes for three hours. When done, pour melted butter or bacon fat over the beans and serve hot.
BEETS IN BUTTER
Wash the beets and cut stems about one inch from the beets. Place in a baking dish with a little water, cover closely and bake with oven dinner for three hours. When done remove skin and slice thinly. Season with melted butter and salt. A little vinegar which has been boiled with one or two tablespoons of sugar for a few minutes or one-half of an onion grated may be added.

SEASONABLE SALADS
The familiar slogan, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away," might also be worded, "A salad a day keeps the doctor away." Salads lend color and flavor to our meals and provide a way of serving the leafy vegetables as well as some other vegetables and fruits in uncooked form.
There are numerous leafy plants which may be used for salads. Among them are cress, cabbage, romaine, chicory, endine, celery leaves, and the favorite lettuce. Any of these leaves may be used whole or shredded as the "bed" of a salad.
We think of salads as being cool, crisp, and colorful. This means that everything used for a salad should be kept cold until served. Many fruits and vegetables have delightful colorings which adds greatly to the attractiveness of a meal. Where colorless fruits or vegetables are used such as potatoes, a simple garnish will add the necessary dash of color. And the simpler the garnish, the more effective it is. A dash of paprika, bits or strips of red or green peppers, either fresh or canned, sifted egg yolk, maraschino and creme de manthe cherries, dates, raisins. Small fruits and strawberries all make satisfactory garnishes.
There has been considerable prejudice against salads in the past chiefly because they were lacking in flour or were untidy in appearance. A salad must be compact and neat, in order to please the eye and must be composed of well-seasoned foods that blend well in flavor to please the sense of taste. Mixed fruit salads should alwys contain one fruit having an outstanding flavor such as bananas or pineapples. After seasoning is added to the salad, dressing to improve the flavor of a salad, chopped red and green peppers, grated onion, chopped olives, grated horseradish or Worchestershire sauce are suggestions for varying the dressing used for vegetable salads. Whipped cream is often used in fruit salad dressing and fruit juices also improve the flavor. It is customary to serve some kind of a starchy baked food with
Fresh sandwiches how delicious!

YOUR BEAUTY AND THE CLIMATE
A
In this country in most sections the atmosphere is clear and dry, summers burning hot and winters frigid cold. The result is that the average woman has a dry skin—one that peels when he icey winds blow or when the sun shines. The tiny capillaries in the skin of the cheeks and nose become permanently congested under exposure to intense cold. The delightful, fresh color of youth gradually turns to a sallow, yellow brown. Careless cleansing and inadequate protection added their bit to the injury done by weathering, and in the late twenties girls come rushing to the beauty specialist, to ask for a cream that will undo overnight the work of years and years of neglect.
Fortunately something can be done, but not of course overnight. Perfect cleansing alone will do wonders. There are all sorts of ways to achieve this nowadays. Some use soap and warm water rinsed away with quarts of cold water, and need nothing else. Others like to cleanse with cream first and follow this with a soap and water bath. Some like the soluble cream and water cleansing, others the cream plus the liquid cleanser, and still others swear by the liquid cleanser alone. Whichever method you use, it should be done with religious regularity. The prejudice some people have against soap can be traced back easily to the fact that half the time they do not trouble to rinse off the soap properly. Creams are generally used too sparingly; they must be generously used for real cleansing, and for perfect results every vestige of the soiled cold cream re-
salads. This might be wafers or crackers, cheese straws, sandwiches, or any dainty starchy food. Fruit salads often take the place of the dessert course. Highly seasoned salads are sometimes used as appetizers at the beginning of a meal.

G. I. A. A. Refuses to Lift Suspension of Va. Seminary
MAY REINSTATE VIRGINIANS AT DEC. MEETING
MAY REINSTATE VIRGINIANS AT DEC. MEETING
Seventh Annual Bulletin Issued. Contains Many Interesting Facts
By Charles Hs. Williams
By Charles Hs. Williams
HAMPTON, Va.—On September
11, the executive committee of the
C.I.A.A. was called for a special
session which was held in Richmond,
Va. The committee considered
the suspension of Virginia
Seminary, voted by the schools last
spring, but did not lift the ban,
because of the fact that Virginia
Seminary will not carry out its
regular C.I.A.A. football schedule
this fall. It is probable that the
ban will be lifted at the annual
C.I.A.A. meeting in December.
The C.I.A.A. issues its seventh annual bulletin containing minutes of the eighteenth annual meeting, the revised constitution, a list of approved officials, football, basketball, baseball, tennis, and track records, C.I.A.A. all-star selection for 1928 football, and the 1929 football schedule. It also contains a list of letter men for the various schools and sports for the 1928 season, and pictures of the different teams.
PLAN ANNUAL MEETING OF "Y" TEAMS
The Y.M.C.A. tennis circle is displaying considerable interest in the talked-of arrangement for annual matches along the "Walker Cup lines" between Eastern "Y" teams. The project does not appear to have reached a definite stage, but it has matured far enough to give rise to animated discussion as to what conditions ought to be imposed to make the idea a success. The Twelfth Street Branch "Y" tennis enthusiasts are working to put the project over for the 1930 season. It is hoped to bring in such cities as Philadelphia, Baltimore, Atlantic City, Montclair, New York City, Brooklyn, Buffalo, and Pittsburgh.
FLORIDA GRIDDERS REPORT FOR WORK
TALLAHASSE, Fla.—Florida A and M College gridders reported to their coach W. McKinley King, September 2nd to prepare for one of the toughest schedules in the history of the Florida institution. Former Coach Bragg had everything in readiness and nothing has been left undone to secure the highest degree of comfort and convenience for the football candidates.
ALABAMA GRIDDERS START PRACTICE
MONTGOMERY, Ala.—Although the opening football practice here at the Alabama State Teachers College was called to begin exactly two weeks ahead of the formal academic program, three eleven of grid candidates for the 1929 edition of the Hornets answered the call of Coaches Gaston F. Lewis and Howard L. Johnson on Tuesday and were being treated to some honest-to-goodness scrimmage before the week of early morning and afternoon practice sessions ended on the 14.
THE HIKERS IN CAMP AT COLTON
COLTON, Md.-The Hi-Kers of Garnet-Patterson School, under the direction of Lieutenant Leo P. Wilson, are in camp here. They arrived on Saturday, August 31, and since their opening, they have been the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Tolson on a motor boat trip down the Potomac River, the guests of Mr. James Campbell, Bonds and Goldens Hotels, and the recipients of a surprise treat by the mothers of the hikers. The club hikes each day to some place of interest. A track meet, tennis tournament, and water events are to be held before the camp closes. Asst. Superintendent G. C. Wilkinson and Miss Mineola Kirkland, principal of Garnet-Patterson school, have special guests at the camp.
The roster of the camp is as follows: Lieutenant Leo P. Wilson, Charles Graham, William Simpson, Raymond Tolson, Frank Warf. Unious Baskerville, Paul Brown, Maurice Wooden, Maurice Bryant, Donald Campbell, Lawrence Woold, Edward Harris, Theo. Fran- is, and William McConnel.
"Y" GRIDDERS HUSTLE TO MAKE GOOD SHOWING
The "Y" football team has plunged into intense preparation to meet a hard schedule. The team had a peppy signal drill on Thursday evening. Drills are slated Monday and Thursday evenings until further notice. Meetings are held at the "Y" gymnasium every Tuesday night at 8 o'clock. All candidates, especially new ones, are urged to attend.
“Y” BOYS COMPETE IN WATER CARNIVAL
The swimming pool formed the biggest attraction among the "Y" boys during the week following Labor Day. This marked the beginning of the last special event in the pool for the summer season, which ends the last of the month. Water polo was played, Tuesday, between the opposing "Y" teams. This was an interesting event and was attended by nearly a score of guests. Life saving exhibitions were given the next two days. The latter days were taken up with races. Many boys who knew nothing about swimming the beginning of the summer made surprising showings in the races. Diving was another feature, together with under water swimming.
Mr. Walker, swimming instructor, has gotten great results this summer and in interviewing him, it is learned that the winter season offers even more results. A new heating system has been installed for the heating of the water during the cold months. Next week the water exhibition will continue.
BLACK SOX STING HORNETS
The Black Hornets, of Charlotte, N.C., lost two games to the fast Black Sox, Sunday afternoon, before a large crowd that filled the park to the limit.
The Hornets made merry at the expense of Bland, gathering eleven hits, forcing him to retire with two out in the sixth inning, and leading, 7 to 3, Bailey finishing, granting 3 hits and one run, with the Sox putting the game on ice at their turn.
After the first inning, E. Tucker was breezing along in fine style, until the fatal sixth, when the famous Soxs' bunting game was on, and coupled with costly errors by J. Tucker, Williams and McDowell, petting seven runs.
E. Tucker and Coleman let the Sox down with six hits, the former, four, the latter, two, but bases on balls with four errors behind six solid blows proved their downfall.
J. Tucker and Lindsay brought the fans to their feet with brilliant stops and throws, with Fauntyro making a spectacular catch near the fence completing a double play with a perfect throw to first.
J. Tucker also drove one of Bland's shots to the club house for a homer.
The second game started off nicely, but beginning the second inning was a continuation of arguments, the Hornets forfeiting the game by walking off the field in protest of Umpire Despert's decision.

Anacostia Juniors Close Successful Season
The champion Anacostia Junior Athletic Club, under the management of Lawrence "Doc" Greene, have pulled the curtain on the diamond until next year. Greene led his team through the best season they have ever had, winning 30 games, losing 7, and tieing 1 in 38 starts.
Next year, the club is planning to enter the unlimited Junior class. For the coming basketball season the club is planning to put out a winning team also.
Manager Greene has picked Eddie Berry as the most valuable player to the team for the season. The club plans to give him a reward. His second selection was Charles Howard.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1929
HAMPTON'S SQUAD STARTS PRACTICE
HAMPTON, Va.—The first call for the Blue and White football practice was issued Saturday, September 14, by Coach Smith, the football mentor. September 18, is Registration Day. The fall term begins on September 19. All the members of the squad are not expected back until the opening of school.
The Seasiders will have a squad of about fifty men. Because of the five vacancies and the great football offering this fall, there will be the keenest competition for places on the team.
Hampton students returning to school are enthusiastic over the schedule. Numbers are planning to see one or more of the big games away this fall. Great interest is being shown over the New York game with Lincoln at the Polo Grounds on November 2. Football ticket applications are being mailed this week to Hampton and Lincoln Alumni throughout the East.
EASTERN BOARD TO RESUME MEETINGS
A. Kigor Savoy, president of the Eastern Board of Officials, has issued a call for the officials to meet at the residence of Benjamin Washington. Every week during the football season, this group of officials meet and foster an intensive study of the rules of football. A systematic course of presentation of plays, rulings applying thereto, rules bearing upon the same, correct and incorrect interpretation form the basis for a very serious two-hour class. The first meeting will deal largely with the interpretation of principal changes in football rules for 1929.
The board is composed of the following members: J. H. Burr, A. K. Savoy, R. E. Contee, H. G. Douglass, Dr. C. H. Doneghy, E. B. Henderson, Dr. Leo Holton, Dr. S. F. Coppage, Norfolk, Va.; I. N. Cupid, W. Jackson, C. E. Jackson, Dr. J. E. Trigg, B. Washington, and E. P. Westmoreland.
WILEY PRIMING FOR
FIRST GAME
(By Bert Lewis)
MARSHALL, Texas.—For the past ten days the Wiley coaching staff, consisting of Fred and Harry Long and Cox, has been putting the football prospects through a rigid routine of physical exercises and general field practice to get the men conditioned for the first game of the season on September 27. Although there are now upwards of 45 men on the gridiron, a cut which is expected which will probably reduce the ranks considerably.
Summer Season Nears Close With "Y" Boys
Labor Day marked the beginning of the end of the summer offerings to the "Y" boys. Preparations are now being made for the opening of school and the coming winter program, which begins October 1. The low rates of the summer will merge into similar winter year-round rates. Mr. Lee Johnson, Boys' Secretary, is now on his vacation, and with his return to duties the annual fall membership drive will begin. This will last until the last week of September.
"Y" TEAM TO PLAY BETHESDA MD. STARS
The "Y" tennis stars will clash with the fast Bethesda, Md., group on Saturday on the Howard playground. The first game will start at 2 o'clock. The Bethesda group is heralded as a clever combination, but the "Y" aggregation is confident of taking their measure. Rain again stopped the Druid Hill affair, scheduled for last Saturday.
Eagles' Prospects Bright; Railroad Rate Reduced For Game
DURHAM, N.C.—Practically all of last year's varsity team will be ready for duty when the first gridiron session opens here, Tuesday, September 10, according to Coach Crudup, Eagle mentor, who just returned from a summer course at Harvard University. Prospects have never been brighter for a North Carolina College eleven than this season, and the Harvard system will be one of the real features of the 1929 training grind. Interest in the classic has been increasing by leaps and bounds and the coming clash with the famous Forceen eleven now looms as one of the biggest games in the South this season. President Jones, of Wilberforce University, has been invited to attend the game, as well as a host of other nationally-known celebrities.
The Southern Railroad, by a special arrangement, has indicated that special excursion rates will be given on all southern trains coming to Durham on October 12. It is probable that the fare to Durham and return from any point over the Southern railroad will cost only one fare and one quarter.
The Kansas City Monarchs, winners of the penant in the National Negro League, will begin a series of games with the Houston Black Buffaloes, champions of the Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana League. The series will be played in Houston, beginning September 29. There will be a series of seven games.
The Chappie Johnson All-Stars,
"Danny" McClellan's Philadelphia Giants, Duchy Kemp's Schenectady Stars, Santop's Bronchos are serving as excellent training schools for young players in the east.
Among the many players who are now playing new positions in baseball other than their original positions are: "Bullet" Rogan, former pitcher, now outfielder; "Big Ed" Rile, former pitcher, now first base; "Jim" Brown, catcher, now first base; Russ, former catcher, now short stop; Bell, of St. Louis Stars, formerly a pitcher, now an outfielder; John Henry Lloyd, once a great short stop, now first base; Oscar Charleston, once an outfielder, now a first baseman; Ben Taylor, once a great left hand pitcher, now first baseman.
The Negro American League has a galaxy of great catchers, viz: Mackey, Eggleston, Clarke, Ewing, Rojo, Fernandez, Lewis, Jones, Spearman, Gomez, and Lattimore.
Mackey is the "Iron Man" of the catchers. He is right on the job day in and day out. Max Eggleston is one of the brainest catchers in baseball. "Eggie" Clarke has one of the greatest throwing arms in the game today.
Stanley, a young left hander on the staff of the Lincoln Giants, shows promise of becoming a capable finger.
Yancey, shortstop of the Lincoln; Lachey, for the Hildales, and Walker, for the Bacharachs, are a triplet of young players with great promise for the future.
The veteran Chaney White, center fielder for the Bacharach Giants, is still a great outfielder and one of the best curve ball hitters in the game.
FOUR NEGRO COLLEGES ARE ON APPROVED MEDICAL LIST
INSTITUTE, W.Ya.—The American Medical Association's Council on Medical Education and Hospitals, which compiles the list of colleges and junior colleges which are approved for pre-medical work by the American Medical Association has included on its latest list four Negro institutions: Howard University, Lincoln University (Pennsylvania), Morgan College, and West Virginia State College. In a recent letter to Dean Lane, of West Virginia State College, the secretary of the council states: "I note that the approval of your college is under its former name, West Virginia Collegiate Institute, and was approved by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools."
The list in its entirety is composed of colleges which are members of the Association of American Universities, the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, the Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools of the Middle States and Maryland, the Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools of the Southern States, or the Northwest Association of Secondary and Higher Schools. The statement of the council admits that "there may be other colleges which are in a position to furnish acceptably two years or more of college work, but which thus far have not been approved by some agency in which the council has confidence," and the council recommends that colleges not on the list apply for approval to one of the organizations named above.

BLACK SOX NOTES
The Georgetown A.C., who claimed the District championship last season by defeating the Black Sox, will be the attraction at Union League Park, Sunday, in the final game of the season, and the Sox are out to even the count.
Umpire Danny Despert had called time in the fifth inning of the night cap, as Smith let go a pitch, the ball was driven down short, going through Moore's legs, a run coming across on the play, when ordered back the entire team walked off the field, the Sox being awarded a forfeit.
First baseman Ford was knocked out for a brief period in the opener in a collision with Coleman on a close play at first.
The Hornets stated before the game that they were going to get Bland and Bailey. They made good their promise on Bland, but Bailey was in there with everything, removing all the sting out of the Hornets.

VIRGINIA LAWYER ARRAINGES MOBS
Cites Heinous Cases of America's Murderous Pastime
The following editorial appeared in "The Chronicle" of Clarendon, Va., recently, and was written by Attorney Crandall Mackey, who was the prosecuting attorney for his county for eight years. He is now a lawyer here in Washington with offices in Fifteenth street, northwest. His last sentence is exceptionally frank and he is a Democrat, too.
"Murder by Lynching
"A recent publication gives the history of lynching in this country for 136 years. The earlier so-called lynchings were cases of persons who were tarred and feathered or whipped or driven out of their homes and towns by mobs. Many of the victims were girls and women charged with immorality, and the mobs composed of church members looking after the morals of others and forgetting their own. Since outrages committed by mobs, in the form of assaults, humiliations and indignities, went unpunished it was reasonable that mobs became bolder and extended their violence to mutilations and murders.
"In England, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Austria, and throughout Europe what we call lynching is unknown. In those countries the members of a mob where murder was committed would not have a chance to escape trial and execution. It is a remarkable thing that while lynchings in the past three years have decreased in numbers in this country they have increased in savagery. This means that intelligence and education have tended to stop lynching, and that those who still follow it are the degenerate and cowardly and hysterical.
Lynchings and Burnings
"Hundred of cases are recorded where the mob lynched the wrong man, and where jails and public buildings and settlements were burned to ashes, by mobs bent on lynching, without an opportunity being given to the suspected victim to prove his innocence. Of the persons lynched only one in three have been lynched for sex crimes Many of the causes of lynchings are frivolous, such as 'talking back to a white man.' 'jolting a white girl,' 'threatening to have a white man arrested,' 'not saying sir, to a white man,' 'entering a car oc-
cupied by white people,' 'being a candidate for office,' 'walking on the same side of a bridge as a white man,' 'standing between a white man and a cool breeze.'
"At Waco, Texas, an insane Negro committed a crime. The children were let out of school and a mob of fifteen thousand, with which the children mingled, lynched the insane and irresponsible Negro. In Georgia a mob broke in an insane asylum and lynched an insane inmate who had killed a nurse. In Georgia, near the Florida line, a mob was unable to find a Negro they were looking for suspected of murder. The mob decided to lynch a friend of the suspected murderer. After the lynching was over the wife of the victim threatened to have the lynchers prosecuted for their brutal crime. For this threat she was seized by the mob, hung up by the feet, her clothes saturated with gasoline and set afire. As the flames died down a member of the mob stepped out with knife in hand and made sure that the unborn child of the woman was dead.
"At Sardis, Mississippi, a mob fastened a Negro to a log and piled leaves around him and set the leaves on fire and compelled his trembling wife and daughter to be present and to hear his agonizing shrieks and to see his burning body twist in unspeakable suffering. Lynchers have surrounded courts during the progress of trials to deny justice to the accused and to have him found guilty. The only persons who ought to be lynched are those who participate in the lynching of others."
CHIEF CLERK BRYANT LOSES WIFE
Mrs. Emory A. Bryant, wife of assistant chief clerk Bryant, railway mail service, Post Office Department, succumbed suddenly on September 3 to an attack of acute appendicitis. Taken ill at her home in Seaton place, northwest, Mrs. Bryant was removed to Carson's private sanitarium where she died despite avery possible medical attention.
Mr. Bryant was on an extended business tour through the southwestern states and hurried to his wife's bedside when notified of her illness.
Funeral services were conducted from Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church, Rev. H. B. Taylor officiating. The many beautiful floral pieces gave mute evidence of the high esteem and regard in which Mrs. Bryant was held in the community, while condolences were received by Mr. Bryant from associates in various parts of the country. Interment was in Lincoln Memorial Cemetery.
167 FORFEIT BONDS IN "NUMBERS" CASES
Since Assistant United States Attorney Ernest Davis was appointed to Attorney Rover's office on June 1, of the 318 cases originating under him in "numbers," District police judges have allowed 167, or more than half of the number, to forfeit colltaeral, which has averaged about $50 per case. He has secured 45 convictions and about 61 cases nolle proposed.
District Code Ured
While there is no law on the statutes against the United States against "numbers", section 865 of the District Code deals with permitting gaming and it is under that section that the "numbers" cases are prosecuted. There are 44 cases pending awaiting jury trial, and 11 pending, awaiting trial by court.
Prior to July, sentences imposed on convictions averaged $25, or 30 days. Since then the sentences have gone up to $50, or 60 days.

HANDY'S ST.LOUIS BLUES FEATURED AT THE REPUBLIC
A unique departure in the field of talking picture features is the musical drama, "St. Louis Blues", coming Saturday to the Republic Theatre. Adapted from the famous song hit of the same name by W. C. Handy which revolutionized popular music in this country, the picture presents a powerful, dramatic little tale of New York's Black Belt—Harlem.
Featured in "St. Louis Blues" are Bessie Smith, famous blues singer and Columbia Recording artist, and an all-Negro cast of 75 singers and dancers. The melody is defily woven into the story.
Musical arrangements for the all-talking, all-musical film were made by W. C. Handy. The picture is packed with melody, dancing, and unusual photographic effects.
Barthelmess and Bessie Smith at Republic
Beginning Saturday, September 21, to Wednesday, September 25, inclusive, the Republic will present the biggest bill ever shown at this house. The feature picture will be "Drag," Richard Barthelmess' latest 100 per cent all-talkie. Lila Lee supports Barthelmess in "Drag." This picture is one of the most dramatic Barthelmess has ever appeared in. As a special added attraction to the feature picture "The St. Louis Blues," starring Bessie Smith, Columbia recording artist and greatest of the blues singers will be shown. This two-reel all-talking, all-musical drama is found on the great song by W. C. Handy, and includes in its cast besides Miss Smith, Isabell Washington, star of "Harlem" and "Bambola;" Jimmie Mordecai, revue and night club favorite; Jimmy Johnson's red hot Harlem Syncapators, and a chorus of 75 blues singers.
On Saturday, September 21, only, episode one of "The King of the Kongo," the first talking serial ever shown. The feature attraction on Thursday and Friday, September 26 and 27, will be James Oliver Curwood's "The Yellow Back."
"Porgy" Back on Broadway After Year
Because the play is by way of being a theatrical landmark, the Theatre Guild has brought "Porgy" back to New York City once more for a four weeks' engagement at the Martin Beck Theatre. From New York it will again start traveling, this time to the Pacific Coast and into the Northwest. Already it has been shown in New York for a full year, three months in London, for four months in Chicago and many weeks in other major cities of the land. A play about colored people, played by an all-colored cast and illuminated by the richness of their singing and the authenticity of their tragedy and comedy, it has achieved pronounced-success.
But important about it is the attention which it drew to our race as serious players. Hitherto cast for brief bits in plays or drawn to the musical stage stage because of their active gift for dancing and singing, they were drawn into "Porgy," because the script demanded it and because the play could not have been properly produced without a colored cast. There have been experiments in the past of producing plays about the Negro, with white players working under burnt cork. In one instance, "Come Seven" the results were not happy. The thing had a hollow ring. "Porgy" having no such handle, went true. "Porgy" opened Friday week with its original cast starring Frank Wilson, with Leigh Whipper, Jack Carter, Percy Werwayne and others.
LON CHANEY COMING TO THE LINCOLN
the famous star, Lon Chaney, behind the throttle of a plunging iron monster, plays one of his greatest roles in "Thunder," Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's epic of the railroads, a tremendous production coming for four days only, beginning Saturday, September 21, to Lincoln Theatre. Tense drama in "Hardboiled Rose," with Myrna Loy, will be shown Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, at the Lincoln. Myrna Loy follows up her success in "State Street-Sadie," with another excellent impersonation of an entirely different character.
NINA MAE McKINNEY
Nina Mae McKinney, who stepped out of Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds" into the lead role of King Vidor's "Hallelujah" replacing Honey Brown, is now in Hollywood playing important roles in all-white casts. In her next picture, she will be casted with Van and Schenk, R-K-O headliners in a new all-singing and talking production.

‘Tuesday of this week marked the 142nd anniversary of the adop-
tion of the Constitution on September 17, 1787. It is the basic law of
these United States. All officials of the Government, from President
down to a notary public, swear to uphold the Constitution, which is
considered the greatest document of its kind in the world,
This whole week is considered and celebrated as “Constitution
Week,” so that the knowledge of the principles of government, as laid
down'in the Constitution, shall become common knowledge so the true
implication of those principles may guide every citizen in the per-
formance of the duties of citizenship.
Every law passed by Cengress must conform to the Constitution.
Every law passed by the forty-eight states of the Union must conform
to the Constitution, The rights of citizens and minorities are guaran-
toed in the Constitution. It is the property of the people of these
United States. To annul or violate this Constitution is nothing less
than treason to the United States. And that is just what is being
performed by pracically every official of the Government from the
President, down,
The high aim of this great document has been nullified until the
Constitution itself has become essentially ‘a scrap of paper.” Com-
pare this paragraph with the actual enforcement of the Constitution,
“We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more
perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide
for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the
Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and to our Posterity, do ordain and
establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
If this Constitution makes our Government of the people and by
the people, it certainly should be for the people. We ask is it? /‘The
answer is ‘No! As for the Constitution being “for the people,” it is
nothing more than a serap of paper:
“To establish Justice.” There is no such thing as “Justice” to the
Negro in nearly half of these United States, Justice is nullified and
ignored where the Negro is concerned. Justice is denied him in the
courts, at the polls, in office holding, and in property rights. Is the
Constitution more than a scrap of paper where Justice to the Negro
is concerned ?
“Promote the general Welfare.” Again the Constitution is nullified
yon it_comes to “the general welfare” of the Negro. |The United
States Government, itself is a party to the nullifying. President
Hoover, the knead ct the Government, condones the scrapping of the
Constitution when it comes to jusitce of and general welfare for the
Negro. As head of this Government, the President permits peonage
to reign throughout the Southern States, which certainly does not
promote ‘the: general welfare.” Negro farmers are denied farm loans
sbecause of their color.
In the employment of this Government the Negro is denied full
reihts and privileges of a citizen, He is given only the menial work
on the lowest salary scale, President Hoover could issue an executive
order which would eliminate the picture with application for Civil
Service examination and the segregation of Negro employees. And
this does not “promote the general welfare.”
If the Constitution was really in force and not. merely a. serap
of paper, the Negro would be among the members of the President's
gubinet, members of every commission appointed by, the President.
He would vote in the South and there would be Senators and Repre-
sentatives from many of the Southern States. There would be no
“color line” in America. ‘There would be no place in this country for
an organization like the Ku Klux Klan, a‘
If the President means to enforce the Constitution instead of
rerapping it, would he have permitted the National Republican Com-
mittee to eliminate the Negro National Committeeman from Missis-
sippi and the colored committeewoman from Georgia? Would he pro-
mote Lily Whiteism in permitting the chairman of the cominitttee
tobe elected who is reputed to be in sympathy with the Klan? Does
that “promote the gener:' ~clfare?” Can the President continue to
ignore one-tenth of the -ns_of this country and say that. he is
establishing “Justice”? Voting the general welfare”? and hon-
estly upholding the Const ...n?
DOES IT PAY?
Does it pay to lead an honest, up-right Christian life?
This is a question sometimes asked. When we see the notorious
wickedness of and crimes committed by some men and women, and the
sordid lives they lead.
‘And then to see so many of the would-be society leaders and re-
spectable people hobnobbing with and applauding these enemies to
Teputable society.
__ While on the other hand, those who try to lead an honorable, up-
right life, are usually in disfavor—criticized and abused.
When such a state of affairs exists among a goodly number of
people, in any community, why marvel if some one asks the question,
does it pay to live an honorable, upright life?
‘To the question we answer yes! For it is written, “What ye sow
ye shall also reap.”"—The Advocate, Portland, Ore.
The tendency of the world today disputes “The Advocate’s” yes.
And “What ye sow ye shall also reap” seems to have little effect upon
people of today. Especially the folks who wrote and print the book,
known as the Bible, wherein that quotation is found. While Negroes
claim to believe the Bible, they had nothing whatever to do with the
translation and printing of it. a
However, the folks who did, pay little or no attention to its ine
junctions and precepts, but live wholly different lives, has caused the
Negro to question their sincerity, and the question arises: “Does it
pay?”
Folks cannot say they love God with ALL their heart and in the
next breath say to hell with the Negro,
On the other hand what does the Negro get out of aping the
precepts of the white man’s supposed Christianity? If the Negroes
have as much of the Christian religion which they claim to have, and
believe they are “Children of a King,” as they sing they are, why are
they always poor, needy and begging? Have you ever heard of a
iking’s children begging? Negroes sing “My Father is rich in houses
and land, He holds the wealth of the world in his hand.” And go right
out and’ wonder where they are going to get their breakfast next
morning. The minister who leads the song is often hungry, almost
ragged with any number of creditors waiting for Monday to come
and get another promise of “I will.” Does it pay?

TION.
The. humanitarian and _philoso-
pher, Heywood Broun, under the
caption, “It Seems to Me,” in the
Washington Daily News, in com-
menting recently upon an editorial
that appeared in an Alabama daily,
mourning the passing of a certain
| Jim Swift, an old faithful butler
in the Mallory family, strikes a
"very significant note in'the follow-
‘ing statement: “It is beside the
point to ask a colored man of our
generation to behave as if he be-
Tonged to a social order which has
entirely passed away.
Mr. Broun also called attention to
a New York Times editorial which
‘reviewed the southern editorial at
the same time bewailing the fact
that Negroes are now being taught
not to mourn the passing of the
Jim Swifts. Mr. Broun is justified
in believing that the New York
Times writer was from the south.
Broun continues, “You simply can-
not get a southerner to think real-
istically about any question which
concerns the Negro, Drive him in-
toa hole in an argument and he
will seek refuge from the facts by
telling you how much he loved the
old Negro mammy. who nursed him
when he was a child.”
‘Too often this is true, But did
the ‘southerner love the idea of
Mrs, DePriest’s being entertained
at the White House? Does he
love the picture of the success of
her illustrious husband, Oscar De-
Priest, and that of the lad Parham,
who he appointed to West Point?
Let the ‘southerner tell you how
much he “loves” the new Negro.
Speak up, Messrs, Blease, Heflin
and company.
We have evidences everywhere of
the New Negro's taking his right-
ful place inthe social order. But
do we find for every new Negro a
new white man?—the new white
man who is willing to forget the
mythical great superiority complex
which trembles at the mere sug-
gestion of the facts; the new white
man who will not only be unsym-
pathetic with the Blease-Heflin
combine, but. will not send such
brain churned, diverted-visioned,
distorted-minded individuals to
Congress who will he the laughing
stock of other nations.
This writer, cognizant of the Di-
vine’ Wisdom’ of the Supreme Be-
ing, can see only ‘one teason for
permitting such” personalities as
this combine to continue’ to mis-
represent those unfortunates of the
south who. need enlightenment—
and that reason is to protect some
worthy insurance company from
paying such large funeral benefits
on such worthless extinct lives.

Dear Editor:
I wish to state that I have been
a reader of the Tribune for more
than six months, and have com-
pared it with many other Negro
papers of which T have read, but
wish to say that the Tribune to
me is more interesting than all
the other Negro papers I have
read. First of all, I want to com-
pliment the Tribune for the inter-
esting news of today and not stail
news clipped from other papers.
Second, it is educational, ‘Third, I
have never read more interesting
