According to the dope Howard is due its fifth licking of the season when the Bisons meet Wilberforce Saturday in the Howard Stadium.

Glacisco Mack has been shifted from the back field to end. Nelson Taylor, a freshman, will replace Mack, while Hawkins, who has been in and out of the game all season on account of a bad knee, is expected to be in guard. Verdell told the writer this week that he still has confidence in the boys, altho they have lost every game and have only scored one touchdown this year. School Jobs For Players Verdall said that it is customary to find jobs for football players in schools and colleges and while at Northwestern University he had a job cleaning about the campus.

Taylor and his wife, Mrs. Alfrida Taylor, 1623 S street, northwest, are in progress. Mrs. Taylor filed a suit for a limited divorce in the District Supreme Court on September 25. Service of papers including a motion for temporary alimony was had on Dr. Taylor on September 28, according to a deputy marshal's return filed in the office of the clerk of the court. The motion should have been heard in the equity division on October 5, but it was continued pending efforts to bring about a settlement without a public trial. No lawyers have even entered their appearance for Dr. Taylor. His wife is being represented by Attorney Austin F. Canfield, of the law firm of Lambert & Yeatman Mr. Canfield would not discuss the case in its present state. In her petition filed in the District Supreme Court Mrs. Taylor stated that her husband had occupied a separate bedroom since November, 1922, although they are living in the same house. She charged that he has treated her with disdain and contempt and in 1925 ceased to speak to her. He told her, she says, that his reason for his attitude was that "she was fine for somebody else, but that she didn't suit him," and the real trouble was "incompatibility." Mrs. Taylor also charges failure to support her properly. She alleges that Dr. Taylor bought the finest foods for himself and only coarse, ordinary food for her. Dr. Taylor is a physician and surgeon, a member of the Freedmen's Hospital staff, and a clinical instructor in surgery in the Howard Medical School. Mrs. Taylor is a substitute teacher in the public schools. She had given up her work but returned to it in September, 1924, she says, in order to earn sufficient money to maintain and support herself properly. Dr. Taylor's income from his practice alone is at least $30 a day, Mrs. Taylor says. The couple were married in Alexandria, Va., December 24, 1921.

TWO HUNDRED MASONS ENTERTAINED The management of The Bamboo Inn entertained two hundred Masons and their wives, Tuesday evening prior to the grand opening on Wednesday night. This gave rise to some flurry throughout the city due to the erroneous opinion that the "higher ups" were being catered to, to the exclusion of the general public. The most logical and ethical thing to do was to become host to the "maker and finisher" of the beautiful Temple housed by The Bamboo Inn. Star Chamber Session Tabooed; Appointments Are Announced Meetings of committees of the board of education previously held behind closed doors are to be opened to the press so that "more comprehensive reports of important issues" may be obtained.

THE OFFICE OF The Tribune IS OPEN EVERY NIGHT UNTIL 9 DELANY LOSES; MOORE, PERKINS AND RIVERS WIN Deliberate Effort to Delay Voting in Harlem Is Charged NEW YORK CITY, Nov.—Hubert T. Delany, son-in-law of Emmett J. Scott, of Washington, went down to defeat here Tuesday, not white voters failed to because the support him, but the Negroes themselves failed to register and to vote. More than 5,000 of them who registered, did not vote. Delany made a brilliant campaign. He received 27,734 votes against his opponents 40,046. However, Fred R. Moore, veteran editor of the New York Age was elected Alderman on the Republican ticket in the 19th ward. Harlem elected two men for the legislature. Lamar Perkins, a young lawyer who defeated Archie Tolk, white; and Francis E. Rivers, son of Rev. David F. Rivers of Washington, D. C., who won over Irwin Isagets. Contributing causes for Delany's defeat were the late opening of the poles, 9:30 in the Harlem district, which prevented many from voting before going to work. In many polling places the voting machines were out of order for hours at a time, which prevented many more from voting. It is said that many of these machines were deliberately tampered with to delay the Republican vote. Others were challenged in the early hours and while being questioned, held up the line of voters, many of whom were forced to leave before voting. THOS. H. R. CLARK TO SPEAK ON "OUR SCHOOLS" THOS. H.

Harmless as the recipe on the wrapper; mild and bland as it tastes. But its gentle action soothes a youngster more surely than some powerful medicine that is meant for the stronger systems of adults. That's the beauty of this special children's remedy! It may be given the tiniest infant—as often as there is any need. In cases of colic, diarrhea, or similar disturbance, it is invaluable. But it has everyday uses all mothers should Tuesdays were selected for regular meetings.

REMEMBER NAT TURNER, NOVEMBER 11 On November 11, when the nation celebrates its victory in the "war to make the world safe for democracy," the Negro masses of America whose experience with "democracy" has been bitter in the extreme, will do well to seek inspiration, not in a victory which means nothing to them and which, in spite of their part in its achievement, did not help to better their condition one iota, but rather in an event of tremendous significance to them as an oppressed group under this newly defined democracy. It was on November 11th in 1881, that the daring Nat Turner was put to death by the white slave-holders of Virginia following the collapse of the slave revolt he led. Nat Turner took his capture with the utmost equanimity. Cool and fearless to the last, he made no denial of his leadership of the revolt, but like a good revolutionary, he utilized the courts of the master class as a tribunal from which to thunder his denunciations against the oppressors of his race. He was sentenced to death on November 11. Even his enemies record that "he met his death with perfect composure," that "he betrayed no emotion, and even hurried the executioner in the performance of his duty." Not by the slightest movement of limb or muscle did he give any satisfaction to the huge crowd of sadistic slave holders who gathered to witness the 'execution.' The Negro masses, whose oppression today, more than sixty years after "emancipation" is in many respects more deadly than under chatel slavery, should strive to keep our revolutionary traditions alive as an example in the present phase of that long struggle our race has waged for real emancipation. The names of Nat Turner, of Gabriel, of Denmark Vesey, and of that famous revolutionary of Haiti, Toussaint L'Ouverture, should be indelibly engraved upon the consciousness of every Negro throughout the world. The revolutionary lives and deeds of our heroes must be made the example and guides for the prosecution of the struggle against the vicious capitalist system under which we suffer today as wage-slaves and exploited tenants. CELEBRATE NO-VEMBER 11 AS NAT TURNER DAY! THE LETTER BOX THE FEDERATION OF PARENT- TEACHER ASSOCIATIONS TAKES EXCEPTION To the Editor, The Tribune. Dear Editor: Will you please be kind enough to allow me a few words in the valuable columns of your paper for a reply to the letter of A. J. Burns which appeared in your issue of October 18. I am the editor of "The Parent-Teacher Journal," issued for the Federation of Parent-Teacher Associations, divisions 10-13, a worker in the federation, and president of the Parent-Teacher Association of Lovejoy School. You can see therefore that I am deeply and actively interested in parent-teacher work. I do not wish to defend the position that our Parent-Teacher Associations are perfect, or that they are doing all that they might do. Indeed, historical anthropology shows that it is the inherent tendency of man to improve and make more efficient whatever social institutions he may have. However, as a matter of fact, our parent-teacher associations are attacking vigorously the very problems which a. J. Burns says they are ignoring. It was only last year that the Federation held a conference on juvenile delinquency and social hygiene at the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School. This conference had representatives from all of our schools, and the social problems were discussed and elucidated by competent speakers. The president of the federation drew up a comprehensive and constructive program for each local organization and a copy of this program was sent to the principal of each school and to the president and secretary of each Parent-Teacher Association. The Parent-Teacher Journal carries on the editorial page of each issue the "Parent-Teacher Creed." This creed embodies the working principles of our parent-teacher associations. The Federation is now working out an intelligent and constructive program for itself and each local organization for the current school ```markdown ``` --- Liberal Progressive Independent EDITORIAL 820 U Street, N.W. Phone, Potomac 1656 Entered as second-class matter July 7, 1922, at the Post Office at Washington, D.C., under the Act of March 8, 1879. Many of our parent-teacher associations are already giving milk to children who are under weight, and many others are helping children whose parents are unable to clothe them properly. No one, not actively engaged in school work, realizes the enormous size of the problems confronting our schools. I agree that we as a race have had entirely too much empty talks and senseless action. I realize that our main problems, as well as those of any other people, are essentially economic and are to be solved only by wise co-operative commercial effort. Were it not for the fact that this letter is already too long, I would have more to say about the economic phase of our life. Yet, I have faith in our mothers. I have faith in our fathers. I have faith in our children. I have faith in our race. I beg to submit that nothing is to be gained by adverse, unintelligent criticism. So far as I am concerned, I shall do all in my power to defend and advance the cause of my race. A WORD FOR THOSE WHO HAVE A WORD FOR US Sir: Permit me to crash into the columns with a word or two of The Washington Tribune Published Weekly at Washington, D.C., by THE WASHINGTON POST PUBLISHING COMPANY. year. Fort Humphreys, Va. October 18, 1929. The Editor, Washington, Tribune, Washington, D.C. A. B. appreciation for a few nationally known column writers, gentlemen on the opposite side of the color line, whom, repeatedly I have noticed, have taken advantage of every propitious opportunity to say a word to defend or approve the race. These gentlemen, I wish to recommend to the Hall of Fame of the Negro race. It may be quite true that as a whole, the public press of the opposite side may, or rather, do not promiscuously disseminate, to the extent that they might, all the news that would reflect favorably upon us; in fact, it might be said that the contrary is quite the rule; therefore, I hold, it is all the more fitting and proper that the Negro press should never pass by without comment the fact that there are those among the Nordies or Anglo-Saxons, who all though not as aggressive in defending his darker brother as you or I or others might wish, nevertheless, this can be said—none of these gentlemen sit supinely by and deliberately ignore the outstanding creditable news features emanating from some colored source. That inveterate news reader has failed to note the every-now-and-then racially helpful word Arthur Brisbane jots down in his daily column of the Hearst's National Syndicate Press. Nothing more need be said of him than that he is pre-eminently fair. Then who remembers the beautiful tribute paid to Florence Mills at her death by O. O. McIntyre, in the Hearst Sunday morning papers sold everywhere throughout the land. No more than two hundred words encompassed his eulogy; anymore would have been superfluous. He did not ignore that she was of "us" and in spite of that handicap rose to eminence in an all-white land. What more need have been said by him than is contained in these last few sentences of his remark: "At the conclusion of her famous song . . . . . . I'm a Little Blackbird Looking for a Bluebird', she stood with her hand at her throat—no doubt fearing the worst. The building fairly shook with applause. One did not have to hear her voice . . . . her manner, rolling eyes and gestures won her deserving fame." That was on her first night's appearance in gay Paris at Les Ambassadeurs on the world-famed Champs Elysee. Who other than the fairest minded of white column writers would have cared to let the world know that there was something exquisite and grand about a little brown-skinned woman of the despisible race? Let's give this man the glad hand. Then there is Bruno Lessing, who takes a whack at Mr. Blease, if you please, the Senator from South Carolina, and reminds him that the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments are a part and parcel of the law of "his'land. Space will not permit me to mention a few others. Let's not forget them as we read and run. David W. Adams. PRAISES DR. JOHNSON Dear Editor: Now that some of the noise about Howard University's football team has died down, I want to ask if you'll be kind enough to let me speak from the other side of the question? Thank you. Here goes. There are at least a dozen people in this city and quite a few out of it who think they know more about managing the football team at Howard than the man who has done more for Howard in the last three years than any living man. Could any of these fault-finders have gathered a million dollars for Howard in two or even five years? and have five or maybe six million more on its way? Some of our so-called learned preachers have helped to create a disturbance over something about which they know absolutely nothing. Instead of trying to make the world a better place to live in and preparing at least one decent sermon a month, they can find time to criticize a man who does things instead of blowing his horn. True some of them preach about money being the root of all evil, etc. Trust in God, etc. He will show you the way. I notice it took over seven years to finish the Masonic Temple at Tenth and U streets, northwest, and if God showed the way he must be getting rather slow and must have moved from heaven to the 200 block of Florida avenue, northwest. President Johnson is doing what other heads of colleges are afraid to do, viz: standing behind his word that "Howard shall have clean athletics in spite of frats, critics, or anybody (including faculty). Howard has one of the cleanest and smartest coaches in the country, white or colored.

ONE DAY IN MY VACATION Last summer I spent my vacation in the country. As you know there is no end to good times in the country. One day perhaps you go on a picnic, the next you go blueberry picking, and the next swimming and so on. I had been doing those things for nearly a month. Now I wanted something else to do. At last one idea struck me. Why not go to the meadow and weave some daisies? Off I flew as soon as that idea came to me, and got prepared to go. It took but a minute. Then off I ran M.

How cool and refreshing everything was! The grass was sprinkled with dew which sparkled like millions of little diamonds. The flowers reminded me of fairy castles. The birds sang, the bees hummed, and many other pleasant sounds could be heard. I found a dainty little spot and fell to work. Pretty soon I got sleepy and fell asleep. When I awoke I was cramped. It was very dark. "O-o-o-o!" I said, and felt about me. I was in a big box. How I got there is all another story.

I kept on taking Cardui until I had taken four bottles, after which I felt a great deal better. The soreness went away. During my illness, I only weighed about 89 pounds. After taking Cardui I was gratified to find I weighed 140, which was about my usual weight. I do not have any more nervous trouble. I feel just fine. "I certainly can recommend Cardui."

But a true, edible pumpkin pie has a flaky crust well filled with a golden brown pumpkin mixture which is as good to eat as it is to behold. The following recipe may help those who have difficulty in making pumpkin pies. **Pumpkin Pies** 1½ cups cooked pumpkin 2-3 cup brown sugar 1¼ tsp cinnamon 2 eggs It's a delicious newday bread that mothers everywhere are praising. Exactly what it offers. By ALICE ADAMS PROCTOR WE prefer to sell Wonder Bread to homes where there are children. Children above all suffer from lack of balanced diet. Wonder Bread does much in correcting this. Being rich in carbohydrates, it builds up that vital "energy reserve" and thus combats listlessness remarkably. Your children, through its daily use, discover a new zest for play. Please, always consider these benefits when ordering bread. And above all remember they come to you in a bread considered by domestic scientists the most delicious ever baked. How We Make It ITS DELICATE flavor delights the children Wonder Bread is "slo-baked." This means, as the term suggests, slower baking and more careful baking. It brings you more delicate flavor. Greater digestibility plus longer-lasting freshness. Wonder Bread is the new-day bread. It is bound to displace ordinary brands in any careful home. So get it for your children and for yourself. See the remarkable benefits it brings. vinegar 2.2.3 cups sugar Cranberry Pie Spiced Cranberry Sauce ALEXANDRIA NOTES Mrs. Ethel Hackley Representative 1010 Wythe Street Phone, Alexandria 1427 Mrs. Annie G.

OF JUSTICE POST IS REFUSED NEGRO ASPIRANTS However, Job Held By Perry W. Howard Still Vacant Frail hope for the appointment of a colored man as an assistant attorney general of the United States was killed last Friday when President Hoover appointed A. Aaron Youngquist, attorney general of Minnesota, to the only remaining "little cabinet" vacancy in the Department of Justice. He succeeds Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt and will have charge of prohibition prosecutions. The post had been vacant for more than five months, and the appointment of a colored Republican to it had been urged upon the Hoover administration. Robert L. Vann, editor of the Pittsburgh Courrier, had the support of the heads of the colored voters' division of the Republican National committee, which had charge of President Hoover's campaign among colored voters. His appointment was under consideration at the White House, but it failed to materialize. While unanimous support was being sought for Vann, representatives of the Moton faction which had been active in the campaign came to Washington and urged the selection of J. V. Cashin, an attorney, of Chicago, Ill. There were other aspirants for an assistant attorney generalship, but most of them yielded in favor of Vann because it was thought he had the most influential hacking. Only once in the history of the United States has a colored man filled the position of an assistant attorney general. He was William H. Lewis and served under the Taft administration. Mr. Lewis was a recent caller at the White House and while the subject of his conference was not announced it was thought that he saw the President in the interest of Mr. Vann. The appointment of Mr. Youngquist still leaves hopes for the appointment of a colored man as an attorney in the Department of Justice at a salary of about $6,000. The vacancy caused by the resignation of Perry W. Howard, who was a special assistant to the Attorney General, has never been filled, or rather no colored man has been appointed in his stead. The salary of Howard at the time he resigned was $6,400 a year. There is only one colored attorney in the Department of Justice. He is Louis R. Mehlinger, who was promoted through the various grades from a clerkship. He is officially rated as an associate attorney. Cases formerly assigned to Mr. Howard are now assigned to Mr. Mehlinger.

The appointment of Mr. Youngquist is the first step by President Hoover toward the creation of the new centralized dry enforcement unit in the Department of Justice. He is to be the chief dry enforcement administrator under the new scheme of prohibition enforcement contemplated by the Hoover administration, combining in the Department of Justice the various prohibition activities of the Treasury and Justice Departments. In the selection the President and Attorney General William D. Mitchell, are said to have scanned more than 100 potential candidates for the post. The selection of Mr. Youngquist is regarded as largely due to the influence of Attorney General Mitchel, another Minnesota, who is a close personal friend of the appointee.

HALLOWE'EN RIOTOUSLY CELEBRATED HERE, BIG PARTY AT THURSTONS The departure of October last week with many Hallowe'en festivities furnished all sorts of amusement for those wearied by the week's work. Simply to park on You St., N.W. and watch those Hallowe'en revelers and their many pranks was enough to drive the most stubborn blues away. Many friends and patrons of Thurston's Hallowe'en were entertained in the dining room on Hallowe'en night. This was quite an innovation and it was appreciated to the greatest extent by those participating. The Coo Coo, a popular club of young ladies were also hostesses to a large number of friends on Hallowe'en night. These lladies, well known because of their social activities, spared no pains in making their guests comfortably and well entertained. Dame Rumor has it that Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Porter, well-known in Washington society for many years will leave in a few days for New York City, where they will be located permanently. The Capital foks will certainly miss both these young people, but hope for them much success. We see that the Post Office Clerks of Local No. 148 are planning another elaborate dance to be given on Tuesday evening, November the 19th. If the members and friends of this organization will but recall the dance of last season, we are sure you will look forward with intense interest to an even better reptition. EIGHT Added to the other affairs of importance during the past week was the "at home" given by Mr. and Mrs. Alto Smith, who were married October 19. The beautiful home, 617 Fourth street, northeast, was artistically decorated with palms and fall oak leaves with soft lights burning, adding a touch of an oriental garden. Mrs. Adella Green introduced the guests as they arrived, while the bride's sister, Mrs. Constance Robinson, served the repast. The bridal chamber and presents were cared for by Mrs. Clara Moore. The out-of-town guests were Mr. and Mrs. Conway, relatives of the bride; Mesdames Heath and Johnson, from Philadelphia. The groom's brother and wife, Dr. and Mrs. Smith, and Dr. Bowser, of Chester, Pa. Many presents were received; one a unique shower by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing employees, where Mr. and Mrs. Smith are employed. AGNES' BEAUTY SALON OPENED LAST WEEK I'm sure you missed a real treat if you did not attend the opening of Agnes' Beauty Salon on last Thursday. Throngs of people passed in and out of this most beautiful and thoroughly equipped shop from 3 to 9 p.m., and all expressed delight that a shop so modernly furnished had opened in their midst. The color scheme of green and ivory creates an atmosphere so different from the traditional white. Souvenirs were given all the guests.

The final score was 13-6. The brilliant ball carrying of Clarke, of Lincoln, aided his team in winning one of the hardest battles Lincoln has fought this year. Lions Score Early Lincoln scored early in the first quarter after a booting duel between the two teams. Lincoln had the edge in punting as "Sheep" Jackson, of the Lions, averaged 60 and 70 yards when he kicked. The first touchdown came about when Guess, of Hampton, fumbled, and Templ, of Lincoln, recovered on Hampton's 15-yard line after Jackson had kicked to this point. On the next play Clarke smashed through Hampton's line for two yards. Then Harmon hit tackle for two more. On the next down Lincoln uncovered a trick end run with Sydnon carrying the ball for the 10 yards and over the goal line. The extra point was counted when Hampton was offside. Hampton Comes Through Determined to even matters, Hampton came back in the same quarter to get a similar break to score. After the Seasiders kicked to Lincoln's 18-yard line, Lincoln fumbled and Hampton recovered. Here Lincoln put up stiff opposition, but first with Guess and Jones carrying the ball the pigskin was carried to the 2-yard strip when Jones went over for the score. The try for the extra point failed. Field Goal Fails From here until the fourth the two teams fought on even terms while many outstanding plays and brilliant runs kept the fans on edge. In the fourth quarter Hampton attempted a field goal when the ball was on Lincoln's 20-yard line, but the boot fell wide. From here Lincoln started a march that carried them over Hampton's line for the second touchdown. Clarke Runs 41 Yards Harmon trotted off 12 yards for a first down. A pass, Harmon to Clarke, gained 28 yards. Clarke thrilled the huge gathering by a brilliant sprint that took him around end for 41 yards. Lincoln was penalized 5 yards, but on the next line buck Anderson regained the lost ground. Hampton intercepted a Lincoln pass, but on the second play a Hampton pass was snared out of the air by Jackson, who dashed to Hampton's 22-yard line. Harmon trotted off 7 yards through center, and again pierced the line in center for the remaining distance to the goal line for the second touchdown for the Lions. The try for the extra point failed. The game ended with the ball on Hampton's 20-yard line with the Lions pointed for Hampton's goal. It was the first time two colored teams had played in New York and in the famous Polo Grounds. The weather was fair and warm. Before the game Hampton's 57-piece band paraded up Seventh avenue, headed by an escort of police. Citizens of Harlem lined the sidewalks and windows to see the first teams that ever met in football in their city. Between the halves the band marched around the field with banners reading "Vote for Delany." The marchers formed the letters "H" and "L", the initials of the two schools. Clarke is Hero Clarke was the hero of the game. He shared honors with Temple, Veney, Sydnor, Waters, Harmon, Jackson, Carter and Anderson. Temple and Carter are Washington boys and they reaped a big hand from the galleries for their ball toeing. Hampton was the favorite before the game, but it was not long after the kick-off before the fans realized that Lincoln was the superior. The line-up: Lincoln (13) Hampton (5) Sample L.E.

DANTLEY BEATS DUNBAR 13-6 DANTLEY BEATS DUNBAR 13-6 BALTIMORE, Md—A touchdown scored in the last three minutes of play by Douglass defeated Dunbar here, Friday, by a 6-0 score. It was almost dark when "Tuskegee" Dantley, Douglass back, intercepted a pass by Minns and dashed 23 yards for the touchdown that won the game. Dunbar lost a golden opportunity to score in the second quarter Crichlow, Dunbar taekle, blocked a Douglass kick on Douglass's 15-yard line. Here Minns attempted a forward pass which was intercepted by a Douglass man. Coach Pindherkus started his second string team, but when they weakened after several minutes of play the regulars were sent into the fray. Before the last quarter both teams fought valiantly and on even terms. MORGAN BEARS CLAW STORER HARPERS FERRY, W. Va.—The Morgan Bears broke into the winning column again, Saturday, when they traveled to Storer and won to the tune of 27-0. The game at times offered thrills galore, and at other moments was terribly colorless. From the start, Morgan's superiority was patent. Before the first quarter was well started, Hicks ended a march that began at mid-field, by going over the last white line for the Bears' first tally. Soon after this the Bears clawed their way to another touchdown, and then to another. The second quarter brought still another score for Morgan. Then the Bears called it a day and devoted the entire second half to strictly defensive plaving. Of the many reserves Coach Hurt used, special mention should be made of Johnson and Frazier, though all the "Dragnets" did themselves proud. W.Va.-'Force To Meet At Columbus Turkey Day WILBERFORCE, O.—In the six years that the Wilberforce-West Virginia Thanksgiving football games have been staged other than on the school grounds the two schools have promoted them four times. The seventh playing of the classic Thanksgiving in Columbus this Thanksgiving brings it back to its original site and the two schools are sharing equally the responsibility of its promotion. BLACK BILL WINS NEW YORK—Black Bill, Cuban featherweight, outpointed Willie Davies, Charleston here Monday HOWARD LOSES FIFTH STRAIGHT TO BLUEFIELD Howard University football team met its fifth defeat in as many starts here Saturday in the Howard stadium when Bluefield won a 20-0 victory. The Bisons held the Big Blues to no score for the first quarter. In the second period, Mack's kick from behind the goal was short. Adams fell on the ball for a safety, scoring two points for Bluefield. The Bison held for three downs on their 11-yard line, when on the fourth down Ellis being substituted for Wiggins skirted his left end past Lee for a touchdown, later failure for the extra point. Score at the end of the half, Bluefield, 8; Howard, 0. Wiggins was put back in the second half and made repeated gains off tackle and through the center of Howard's line. Graves went through the line for a touchdown. Ray failed for the extra point. Bluefield scored again in the last quarter when again Ellis was substituted for Wiggins. This time Sandridge skirted his right end for the final touchdown. Ray's kick for the extra point was wide. Howard's only offensive threat was in the last quarter when a pass from Marshall to E. Harris was good for a gain of 45 yards, and near the end of the half another pass from Schank to Martin was good for a 35-yard gain. The game ended with the ball in Bluefield's possession on their own 1-yard line. The line-up: Bluefield 20 Howard 0 Jeffries L.E. Payton R. Scott L.T. Harris Woods L.G. Whiting C. Thompson C.

Who would think Lincoln would have beat Hampton, St. Paul to beat A. & T., and Douglass to beat Dunbar; and on top of that, Armstrong and Booker T. Washington tied, when I selected the Washington school. Anyway, I picked four winners out of the eight, so I will hand you my selections for this week:: Wilberforce to beat Howard. Lincoln to beat N. C. State. St. Paul to beat Morgan. Virginia State to beat Union. Hampton to beat A. & T. So long 'till next week. JACK.

A thrilling pass in the fourth period for 12 yards. White to Jones who ran five yards for the only tailley of the day, upsetting the dope. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1929 FOOTBALL AND PENALTIES Several new wrinkles have been introduced this year to improve the game of football. Many football officials in various sections of the country are using signals to convey information to the sidelines. These are not expected to cover every incident of the game. Only the most important happening on the field are signalled. This will tend to remove some of the many moments of suspense concerning certain situations. In some places in the country a tactful use of the megaphone by an announcer in backfield is privileged to get the low-down on decisions and penalties helps interpret the happenings on the field. As yet this is but a high school innovation. straining the case on and of the fair catch on the five yards and not the defens lines are the yard mark ten yards from which in case of fair catch. 3. If less side in pos on the line alty is five 4. No to allow a player yard from In the Western Conference games, coaches agreed to facilitate the manner of reporting by having the assistant coach give the incoming substitute a slip of paper bearing the number of the man entering the game and the number of the man to come out, which is handed to the umpire on the field. Mr. Zuppke of Illinois has used this method for several years and finds it works well. It would not be a bad idea for our coaches to experiment with it. For years sensitive, cultured, spectators have rebelled mentally against the water pail system of providing drinking water. In the best football circles the pail full of dirty, often bloody water, has disappeared. Water from sealed bottles and the use of individual drinking cups has supplanted the time honored bucket and sponge. Some trainers even bring water from native bailiwicks to avoid upsetting the viscera of finely-conditioned players. Let us adopt in part this improvement. For the benefit of fans and many football players, and exposition of fouls grouped around each distance penalty would help clear up some of the perplexities which we always will have with us in this day. Just last week Georgetown was awarded a touchdown made by a Georgetown player recovering his team's kick-off and running from that spot to the goal line. The score was allowed despite the rules which prevent an on-side recovery even of a kickoff, and a further advance of the ball by the team that kicked. The error was corrected in the press the next day but the score stands. At intervals in any game of football, the teams are set back with corresponding advance on the part of the opposing teams. These distance penalties are generally 5, 15, and 25 yards with an occasional greater penalty for a major offense against a player, such as slugging. To simplify or clarify some of the situations where these penalties are given, we will explain some things about these penalties. In general fouls by players are penalized by enforcement of distance penalties from the spot where the foul occurs, and other fouls from the spot of the preceding down. But there are exceptions which we will note. First there are the five yard penalties, some of which follow: 1. When a substitute fails to report to the referee or umpire. If he has entered the field when the ball is dead, but has failed to attract the attention of the official before play starts and he in no way interferes with play, he may not be penalized. 2. On the kick-off, if either team is ahead of its restraining line when the ball is kicked, the penalty is five yards. Although the kicking side may elect to kick from some point back of its own 40 yard line, the penalty is enforced from the restraining line, not the mark of the kick. The re- Dunbar High Athletic Association Launches Membership Drive With Harry Risher as president and Yvonne Walker as secretary, the Athletic Association of Dunbar High School has launched its annual membership drive. Four hundred and fifty students have joined since the campaign opened. The officers of the Student Council elected at the first meeting are Rosalind Butcher, vice president; Katherine McNeill, secretary; and Edward Lucas, sergeant-at-arms. The office of president will be filled by a student elected by the entire school. Doris Risher, Ulysses Lee, and Margaret Just, were chosen as the officers of the Dunbar Debating society for this year. They will fill the offices of president, vice president, and secretary respectively. Lemuel Brown was elected parliamentarian. Continuing its organization, the senior class elected Adelaide Webb secretary and Charles Fearing, Jr., treasurer. Melvin Madison the recently elected president, conducted the election. Louise Tyler is vice president. At the same meeting the faculty committee on publications was announced by the principal: Misses S. I. Daniel, J. P. Howard, and B. C. McNell, Messrs. J. H. Cowan and F. Perkins. The committee for the year-book are Miss Howard, who will be in charge of the literary work, and Mr. Cowan, who will conduct the business activities. straining lines for either team in the case of the kick after safety and of the free-kick following a fair catch are the lines from which the five yard penalty is enforced and not the mark of the catch. The defensive team's restraining lines are the 50 yard mark, the 30 yard mark after safety, and a line ten yards in advance of the spot from which the ball may be kicked in case of the kick following a fair catch. 3. If less than seven men of the side in possession of the ball are on the line of scrimmage, the penalty is five yards. 4. No team with the ball may allow a player to be less than a yard from the scrimmage line and yet not up to the line of scrimmage conforming to the position prescribed for scrimmage line players unless he receives directly, in such half-way position, the ball from the center. 5. There are three five yard penalties where first down does not automatically ensue after a foul by the defensive side. They are: (a) When a defensive side is off side. (b) When a defensive team encroaches on the neutral zone after play is called and before the ball is snapped. (c) When a defensive team has had three "time-outs" and does not substitute. If, however, the first five yard penalty carries the ball beyond the point necessary for first down, the first down is had. 6. No guard, center or tackle on offense may be back of the line of scrimmage less than five yards when the ball is snapped unless he is at least five yards back or has asked permission to become a back field player, which position he must maintain during the balance of the half. This eliminates the use of heavy linemen for crushing short buck plays. 7. Any single man in motion sideways or forward on the team having the ball when the ball is snapped causes a penalty of five yards. If such single man is in motion less than one second after a shift is completed, the penalty is fifteen yards. In addition to this prohibition, any player running from a position on the line of scrimmage backward or obliquely back must be at least five yards back when the ball is snapped. This is not so for a back-field player off the line of scrimmage. 8. Five yard penalties of free kicks or safety formations do not change the method of putting the ball, in play. The ball must be kicked. 9. If the center lifts the ball from the ground and does not snap it back, whether momentarily held or not, the ball is not in play and his side loses five yards. 10. No player of the side with the ball may attempt to draw his opponents off-side by any method which in the discretion of the referee was an act of such intention. 11. In making a fair-catch, a player may make two steps in making the catch but no more. Further steps bring a five yard penalty and cause the ball to be put in play by a scrimmage. 12. A delay of more than 30 seconds after the signal to play or more than fifteen seconds in the huddle may bring a five yard penalty. 13. For a member of the defensive team "holding" a player who has not the ball the penalty is five yards. 14. The referee may award five yards to a team when some act palpably unfair is committed not covered by the rules and materially interferes with play or player. (Next week "Fifteen-yard penalties. Ala. State Teachers-Clark Game In Memorial Stadium COLUMBUS. Ga. - With the forthcoming Armistice Day, interstate football game between the Alabama State Teachers College "Hornets" of Montgomery, and the Clark University "Panthers" of Atlanta just a week away, the citizens of the thriving Georgia city of Columbus and the gridiron enthusiasts of the adjoining 24th Infantry detachment at Fort Benning are beginning anxiously to anticipate the referee's whistle at 2:45 on Monday afternoon, November 11. This is to be the third annual meeting of these two leading Southeastern elevens and will be the first colored game to be played in the Memorial Stadium here. Cox and Wiggins Star As Fisk U. Beats Knoxville KNOXVILLE, Tenn.—The fighting Fisk University Bulldogs journeyed to Knoxville, Friday, and took the scalps of the spirited band of athletes of Knoxville College by a score of 26-0. The game, although being a one-sided affair, was thrilling and hard fought. The running of Cox and Wiggins for Fisk was undoubtedly the outstanding work of the day.

Although injured in an automobile accident while en route to the game, Captain "Windy" Wallace, of Armstrong, went to the Howard Stadium on Saturday afternoon and helped their team come from a sure 13-0 defeat to a 13-13 tie with Booker T. Washington, of Norfolk. The car Wallace and Douglass Poston were in struck a street car. Both boys were badly cut by glass. Wallace had his injuries bandaged and proceeded to the stadium. Poston remained in the Freedmen's Hospital. Wallace went in the game after the second quarter. Everett Armstrong covered himself with glory when he dashed 40 yards for an Armstrong touchdown. "Nappy" Wormley, who was put in an end position after playing in center, grabbed a pass from Armstrong in the last quarter across the Douglass goal line for the extra point which tied the score. Over 2,000 spectators stood on the sideline and saw the P street boys come from behind in the last few minutes of play and turn what was seemingly a victory for the Virginians into an even count. It was again Armstrong's day. The fleet-footed quarterback who has been the electrifying threat of the locals this season made the tying score for Tech on a beautiful 40-yard run around the visitors' right end near the close of the final quarter. A short forward pass added the extra point. Just a few moments before Armstrong made his sensational dash Tech recovered a Booker T. fumble on the latter's 1-yard line. On the next play Tech went over for a touchdown. Try for the extra point by a line plunge failed. The count stood 13 to 6 in favor of the Norfolk boys. Led by an elongated youth by the name of Smith, who played quarterback, Norfolk outrushed and outplayed Tech in the first and second periods to ease over two touchdowns and one point after touchdowns. The first score came in the first quarter by a long march down the field to Armstrong's five-yard line where Smith went over for a score. Booker T. was off-side and the extra point did not count. Near the end of the second quarter several off-tackle plays and end runs placed the visitors an another position to score. This time Hodge circled the local's ifet end for a touchdown. A line plunge added the extra point. The third quarter went scoreless with Booker T. having the edge on the playing. Four times Tech got breaks which would have resulted i ntouchdowns, but fumbles in each instance were recovered by the visiting eleven. The contest was featured by the playing of Smith and Hodge for the visitors, and Armstrong, Wallace, and Campbell for the locals. **Bookers T. (13)** Armstrong (13) J. Poole L.E. Gregg L. Poole L.T.

O.—The Wilberforce Bullock out-shucked the "Rocknemen." uncovered a superior ball carrier and a team general supreme in Thornhill, all in an afternoon's effort in triumphing over the gridders from Clark University, Atlanta, Ga., Saturday, 33-7. Clark was outplayed in every department of the game and the score represents accurately the relative playing ability though it took a fumble by Baker on Wilberforce's three-yard line to make the Green and Gold gridders realize their superiority and play accordingly. Jack Johnson Sued BALTIMORE, Md.—Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion of the world, was sued for $2,307 in the superior court here on November 1, 1929, by the Castleberg National Jewelry Co., of this city, claiming this sum as a balance due the company on jewelry purchased by Johnson in 1921, and valued at $11,000. The jewelry purchased consisted of a pair of ear-rings, a bar pin, a ring and a lavalier. Jack was appearing at a local theatre at that time. He is now living in Chicago. FLOWERS BEATS KAUFMAN PHILADELPHIA—Bruce Flowers, New Rochelle, N. Y. lightweight, won a 10 round battle from Pinky Kaufman, Hartford, Conn., here Monday. Golden Bulls Swamp Bears By 26-0 Score RALEIGH, N.C.—The Golden Bulls of Smith University trampled ove the Bears of Shaw University to the tune of 26-0, in the City League Park of Raleigh, Saturday. Coach Thomas turned loose his second string men against the Bears to open the game, but after they had failed to hang up even one tally against the struggling Bears, he then rushed in his first string men and ere the half had ended they had put over two touchdowns. Ebenezer Eleven Meets Willow Tree For Title Ebenezer A. C. eleven is scheduled to play Willow Tree A. C. for the District championship on Sunday, November 24. On Thanksgiving Day, the Ebenezer Huskies will journey to Warrentown, Va., to lock horns with the local White Jackets. Games also have been booked with the Alexandria Roamers and the Washington Pirates. Owing to their inability to arrange games with local football teams, the Ebenezers have been slow in getting started this season, but Coach Jones is pointing his aggregation for the South Atlantic championship.

The Better to Serve You --- OVERCOATS TOPCOATS SUITS and TUXEDOES "All Over Town" PLAYER DIES SOON AFTER GRID GAME ORANGEBURG. S.C.-Charles Hugh Webber, of Kings Mountain, N.C., left guard on the football team of Talladega College, died late Saturday afternoon in a local hospital. Three doctors concurred in pronouncing the death as acute heart attack, probably resulting in dilatation of that organ. Death took place about two and a half hours after Webber had played in a game against South Carolina State College here. The weather was too warm for football, but the young man played less than half the time, beginning after the second quarter had started and being taken from the game before the third quarter ended. "Baby Hornets" Victors MONTGOMERY, Ala. — While the varsity aggregation was drawing an appreciated rest this weekend, Coach Lockhart's undefeated "Baby Hornet" eleven of the Alabama State Teachers College staged their 1929 premiere in conspicuous fashion here at Paterson Field this afternoon by bouncing the Industrial High School even to the tune of 24-6.
