HOWARD-LINCOLN BATTLE TO A SCORELESS TIE
A Crowd of 10,000 See Annual Game Played In Philadelphia
(By GARLAND MACKEY)
Tribune Sport Editor
PHILADELPHIA, PA. (Municipal Stadium)—The Howard bison herd battling with their backs to the wall held Lincoln University to a scoreless tie here in the annual Thanksgiving Day football classic before a crowd of amazed fans estimated at 10,000.
Five times the Lions of Lincoln had the Howard team within the shadow of their goal lin and as many times the Verdellmen fought like enraged Tigers and held the Lincoln squad for downs or recovered a Lincoln fumble to emerge from danger.
The brilliant performance of Marshell, Howard backfield ace, was sonational. His sterling play time and saved his team from defeat. His recovery of a Lincoln fumble on his own 10-yard line prevented a certain score by the Chester county lad.
Glance Mack, another stalwart back and the son of a Baltimore Baptist preacher, came in for a share of the glory. His recovery

CAPT. EPPS IN RACE TO HEAD COLUMBIA LODGE
Submits Plans to Erect New Building On Rhode Island Avenue
Pledging himself to call into conference the successful business of Columbia Lodge of Elks to recommend a feasible plan for financing the proposed Elk building at 301 Rhode Island avenue, northwest, Captain Sylvester Y. Epps, this week, tossed his well-worn army sombrero into the ring of local fraternal politics as a candidate for exalted ruler of Columbia Lodge in the forthcoming election, next Monday.
As leader of the "Move Up and Move Out" ticket in the lodge, Captain Epps heads a strong ticket composed of the following candidates: Esteemed leading knight, Charles N. Barker; esteemed loyal knight, Howard A. Walker; esteemed lecturing knight, Herman Fields; esquire, Thomas A. Shipley; inner guard, Lester James; tiler, Albert Allen; secretary, Alfonso E. Williams; recording secretary, Lee Campbell; treasurer, William M. Eatman; trustee, Max Steele.
Asserting that his plan for promoting the erection of the new building not only will save the lodge money, forestall commissions and bonuses, but will "prevent collusion as many offers to finance a building at 301 Rhode Island avenue, northwest, are soon to be offered, and fat commissions are anticipated by the far-sighted." Capt. Epps has proposed the creation of a building committee of nine members, to be known as the board of directors, which shall be authorized to employ architects to prepare suitable plans for the building and, it is understood, generally superintend building operations and expenditures. These directors will hold office during the pleasure of the lodge, which must approve the building contract.
Captain Epps holds an enviable record in military and civic circles in Washington and has recently been appointed a member of the National Negro Memorial Association.

H. U CELEBRATES
MORAL VICTORY
After a night of reverly hun.
dreds of Howard students and sym.
pathizers returned to Washington
five o'clock this morning tired,
many hungry more broke and all
happy. :
Howard had won a 0-0 veitory
over Lincoln and it was time to
celebrate. Every night club in
Philadelphia went full blast _be-
sides the many pubic and private
dances and many more suspicious
looking places with a smell sug-
gestive of Volstead days wafting
from their open portals.
‘The official dances were held at
the Academy of Music on Broad
street, and the Armory, Broad and
‘Wharton streets. However nearly
every house held out a sign and
many were blazoned in electri
lights welcoming Howard and Lin-
eoln and whosoever may come.
‘The Manhattan Lodge of Elks
‘came down from New York and
“were the guest of the 0. V. Catto
Lodge. The New York lodge
brought over 600 and Philadelphia
added another thousand making’ it
impossible to peek into that dance,
‘Then there was the rather blase
affair given at the Strand Audito.
rium on Broad street.
Bootleggers reaped a harvest.
Plain corn went sky high, gin
shyrocketed and scotch flew. ‘The
price was prohibitive. However it
was paid.
The “Frogs” gave an ultra-fash-
ionsble affair and because of its
exelusiveness it was callad a “dan-
sant.” Howard students were not
to be denied and they were there
in packs, Dozens of “private” par-
‘ties and danees were in progress
‘in many homes. Only the invited
were supposed to come, but there
was no denying Howard students
after that “moral victory” over
Lincoln.
‘Three trains left Washington car-
rying 10 cars each. Automobiles
by the hundreds jammed every
road. Trucks and busses carried
many thousand more, Altho. all
were not at the game it was es-
‘timated that over 50,000 came to
Philadelphia yesterday, The whole
affair was a huge success’ on this
‘side of the woods.

COMMIS’ONER DOUGHERTY
ASKED WHY NEGROES ARE
NOT PUT ON POLICE FORGE
Deploring the fact that no Ne-
groes have been appointed on the
Police Force during the past few
years, a committee of citizens
called on Commissioner Dougherty
last Saturday. :
‘This ‘committee called him to in-
quire why the six Negroes who
passed the Civil Service examina-
tion were turned down by the
Board of Physicians and Surgeons,
notwithstanding that two of the
men are members of the District
National Guard and met the rigid
army test to get in the guard ros-
ter.
The Commissioner said that he
had not heard of it but would in-
vestigate it. The names of the
two National Guardsmen are Wil-
liam Olney and G. Frank Eber-
heart,
The Commissioner was asked if
a colored physician would be ap-
pointed on the Board of Examiners
sinee there is a vacancy caused. by
the death of Dr. Kilroy, who died
last week. Commissioner Dough-
erty said that since there is only
about 8 per cent of the force com-
posed of colored men it would not
warrant appointing a colored phy-
sician to the board.

PARTY IN NORTH,
ADVISES LUVALL
“The Negro should ally himself
with the Democratic party in the
north,” said J. A. G. LuValle, be-
fore the National Political Study
Club, Sunday afternoon, at the
Women’s Federation headquarters,
Twelfth and O streets, northwest.
The speaker said that there has
been a dwindling of pre-election
promises of the last three Repub-
lican administrations with no con-
sideration given the Negro at all
by the present administration.
In his address on “The Future of
the Negro in Politics,” Mr. LuValle
said by allying ourselves with the
Democrats of the north and get-
ting on their tickets as McLemore
in St. Louis did in 1928, we could
be assured of a Negro Congress-
man from the 12th district in Mis-
souri and the 2ist district in New
York, With Neggoes in the Demo-
cratie party of the north, demands
could be made upon the party in
the south to ease up on the techni-

groes from the-poles in the south.

ECONOMIC LIBERTY
DISCUSSED AT Pui
BETASIGMA FORUM
Many Students Join In
Speaking at the Thanksgiving
forum of Phi Beta Sigma frater-
nity held at the fraternity house,
Sunday afternoon, Prof. Murchison,
of the Department of Economies of
Howard University, diseussed the
relationship between cultural ad-
vancement and economic independ-
ence. A large and enthusiastic au-
dience was present, and the rela-
tively large number of ladies, plus
the fact that refreshments were
served and piano solos were Ten-
dered by Messrs. Sherman Smith
and George Stephens gave the
meeting quite a social air,
‘Among the prominent members
of the student colony present were
‘Migses Marian Chambers, _presi-
‘dent of Delta Sigma Theta Sorcri-
‘ty; Ruth Matthews, of Alpha Kap-
pa Alpha; and Pauline Myers.
‘These young ladies were among
those who took active parts in the
discussion which followed the prin-
cipal speech. Prof. Murckison’s
speech follows in part:
“As a group we have to realize
how completely economic slavery
enslaves. There is need for the
harnessing of our economic re-
sources. One white man, Henry
Ford, has a business worth more
than’ two billion dollars, whereas
‘the resource of the entire Negro
‘population of the United States is
little more than a billion and a
half. . . There is a close correlation
between wealth and culture as is
shown by all the great centers of
culture, both ancient and modern.
All these centers were first trading
and industrial fields. .. . Large for-
‘tunes do not come from the prac-
‘tice of any of the liberal profes-
sions, but only throuzh productive
‘enterprises... I have to congrat-
“ulate Phi Beta Sigma on their ¢lo-
‘gan “Bigger and Better Negro
Business,” for until Negroes go
more into the field of business and
“develop a sound economic basis,
‘they can never hope to reach their
‘cultural zenith.
“There are only two internation-
ally known Negro industrial con-
‘cerns engaged in production, and
both of these were founded by Ne-
gro women, I refer to the Mme.
Walker Company and the Pore
Company. There is a crying need
‘for Negro men to enter the field. . .
I submit to’ you young men who
are now preparing for your life’s
work that there is no greater ser-
vice than this that you ean rendey
the race. There is great room for
work.”
In answer to one of the questions
‘which followed his speech, Prof.
“Murchison discussed the possibili-
ties of the field of agriculture, one
‘of the primary production which
had been overlooked and was as yet
| unmonopolized by corporations.”
Francis Junior
High School
At the last regular assembly
period at the Randall Junior High
School, the program entered. a-
round ‘the celebration of Thanks-
giving. After the usual opening
there was a piano solo by Myrtle
Minor, a Thanksgiving poem re-
cited by Edna Bond, and a solo,
“Thank God for a Garden” sung
by Vera Coleman. The main item
of the program, a Thanksgiving
play called “Scotch Grace” was
presented,
Parents, members and friends of
the Francis Home and School As-
sociation are cordially invited to
attend the regular meeting on
Tuesday, December 3, 1929, at
cight o'clock. The special 'fea-
tures of this meeting will be a lit-
erary program, a tour of the new
ten-room addition, and a supper in
the new cafeteria,
‘The Student Council entertained
the ‘Assistant Group Leaders with
& Thanksgiving party in the new
gymnasium, on Wednesday.
The Tennis Club had the oppor-
tunity of hearing the following
series of illustrated talks at, its
yegular meeting on Monday: ‘The

son; “The Score,” Major Atwood;
“Holding the Racquet,” “The

After the program the hostesses
served refreshments.

merehandizing trade and built up
a large number of customers. He
put his money into farm and city
property and owns a new $50,000
brick building in the main part of
South Boston, where he conducted
his store, assisted by his sons
Henry and Malcolm.
The second story of the build-
ing is occupied by three insurance
companies; two physicians, a con-
tractor and an undertaker. ‘The
building formerly on this site
barged, recently and within three
weeks Mr. Clayborne had the new
building under construction before
he collected his insurance. He has
several other brick buildings in
the colored sections. He owned
several farms in Halifax county,
stock in the First National bank
and the leading white hotel here.

and Malcolm, a daughter, Mrs.
Blanch Lawson of New York City
and a sister, Mrs, Rosa Guthrie.
A. Hamilton, Merchant's friend,

MRS. ALITHEA BURRIS, 602
E. Vine Ave, Knoxville,
Tenn., of whom a picture is
printed above, writes:
"I suffered a great deal and
a long time with a pain in
my side and extreme weakness
in my back. It hurt me to
straighten, and I had quite
a bit of pain when I stood
on my feet.
"I was looking around for
something to help me. I
read in the newspaper about
Cardul, and decided to try it.
After my first bottle, I felt
better. I continued taking
Cardul until I had finished
six bottles. By that time, I
was stronger and better than
I had been in a long time."

Ring in Health With Christmas Seals
In the olden days anyone could be a bell ringer. Sometimes a citizen had to pay for the privilege; if he abused the honor he had to pay a fine. In All Saints' Church, at Hastings, England, these words may still be seen:
"This is a belfry that is free For all those that civil be, And if you please to chime or ring It is a very pleasant thing."
All through history since the 16th century, which was the golden age of bells, chimes have called out to people their cheerful messages, usually telling a story. For example, with the passing of the old year the bells

were toiled in sadness, then, when midnight had struck, the merry peals clanged forth their welcome to the new year. Before the invention of the newspaper the town crier focused the attention of the people by lustily changing a bell before he shouted the important news it was his duty to spread throughout the city. Since bells have so often served to proclaim victory it is not surprising to find that the design of the modern cup presented as a token of victory in sport is in reality an inverted bell. It is equally fitting that on the gay little Christmas seal for 1929 a bell ringer should be portrayed tugging at a heavy bell, announcing once again to the nation that further victorious advances have been made against the enemy tuberculosis. Each year the seal brings its message of health at the Christmas season to remind people that sickness can be prevented.
Although the stamps are now well known, they originated in a modest manner only twenty-five years ago as the invention of a Danish postal clerk, who devised them to raise money for a tu-

berculosis hospital for the children of Copenhagen. Miss Emily P. Bissell of Wilmington, Delaware, was the godmother of the Christmas seal in this country. She also was seeking for a method to raise money for a tuberculosis institution in her state and in 1907 found the solution to her problem in a magazine article describing the Danish seal and its successful mission. Through her efforts a fund of $3,000 was raised and the project begun. The following year the first nation-wide sale of tuberculosis Christmas seals was undertaken, and wom-
en's clubs, religious bodies and business groups gave their support to this cheerful method of raising money. In 1910 the then young National Tuberculosis Association took over the sale of the seals and has directed it ever

be called tuberculosis Christmas seals.
Thanks to the tiny seal, state after state has been organized to attack tuberculosis with a scientific program. Together, led by the national body, they have brought into existence much of the present-day community machinery that combats tuberculosis. Through the intensive educational work made possible by the Christmas seal, health laws have been passed and are being enforced; tuberculosis specialists and nurses reach the most remote country districts; printed matter on disease prevention is circulated in schools, homes and factories, and there is an active public interest in tuberculosis control among civic, political, commercial, social and religious groups.
This year again the seal carries its message of health throughout the country, giving everyone a chance to be a bell ringer as in olden days—a proclaimer of the important tidings that health is the best insurance for happiness and that tuberculosis may be cured if discovered in time. And as millions of letters and packages decorated with Christmas seals travel from one end of the country to the other during December they will spread the message, "Ring in a year of health with Christmas seals."

Broun said "you may fire when ready, Buddy, but beware the dog and don't tramp on the flowers."

Grandson of Booker Washington Working His Way Thru. Howard
Grandson of Booker Washington Working His Way Thru. Howard
Among two thousand students at Howard university important facts concerning individuals other than those of record are often unknown or obscured. Such a fact was revealed last week concerning William Pittman, jr., son of William Sidney Pittman and Portia M. Pittman of Dallas, Texas, and a native of Washington.
Young Pittman is a senior in the College of Liberal Arts. For three years he has been known by fellow-students and teachers as industrious and unassuming, but without any particular mark of distinction.
As one of the 85 per cent of self-supporting male students, no attention was paid to the fact that he spent his summers and off hours as a cook in Washington cafeterias.
It has just been learned that this young man is the grandson of the late Booker T. Washington, founder of Tuskegee. When asked why he had not disclosed his identity Pittman replied that he preferred to win his way upon his own merits, rather than
---
to secure favors or recognition upon
the eminence of his ancestry.
He stated that he was working his way through school in an effort to relieve his mother and father as far as possible, of any expense in connection with his education, feeling that they had sufficient responsibility rearing his younger brother and sister.
His mother, Portia M. Pittman, is a daughter of Booker T. Washing, and was educated at Tuskegee, Bradford Academy, Wellsley College, and studied for two years in Germany. His father is an architect, a graduate of Drexell Institute at Philadelphia.
The family formerly lived in Fairmont Heights, a suburb of the District of Columbia, where young Pittman was born. His mother and father moved to Texas when he was four years old.
Pittman came to Howard university as a result of a childhood ambition, stimulated by Howard graduates of Dallas. He plans to enter the law school upon completing his college course and hopes to practice in the Middle West.

| Gifts From the Kitchen
[ The iabit of presenting holiday
‘gifts is Jncreasing in popularity
with each holiday season and the
woman vho knows how to make
them has no difficulty in deciding
on what to give and no misgivings
regarding the welcome that her
gifts will receive,
Some of the foods made at home
that are especially nice for Christ-
mas gifts are jellies and jams, pre-
serves and pickels, cookies’ and
cakes, and candy. And there is
an endless array of labels, fancy
papers, jars, baskets, boxes, and
‘paper dolies’ that may be used in
‘the packing of “goodies” to lend a
festive holiday air to its gift. With
the aid of commercial pectin, jel-
lies may be made at any time dur-
ing the year. Glasses of red and
green jellies may be appropriate
holiday gifts. When cookies are
cut in fancy shapes, decorated with
nuts, raisins, and small candies,
and ‘packed in covered tin acher
cans which have been painted a
bright color, stay deserving of
the place of honor among gifts.
Cakes may be cither large or
small, Fruit cake is a general
favorite since it may be baked
prior to the busy holiday season;
it is easily packed in decorated tin
boxes and keeps well.
Perhaps candy is the most pop-
ular of gifts from the kitchen even
in these days of dieting. Certainly
nothing is more heartily welcomed
by the friend with a “sweet tooth”
than an assortment of daintily

by getting our churches to let us
use the basements as store rooms
until we can branch out to regular
store houses.”
Mrs. R. H. Mars said, “We ought
to have our own places of business

"Get 'em-'cause they're HOT!"
At the services of the Lincoln Congregational Temple recently Rev. R. W. Brooks, the pastor, spoke from a very live and impressive theme, viz. "Unemployment, Its Causes and Its Cure." Dr. Brooks took as a text, "And h. said unto them, why stand ye here idle? . . . They said unto him, Because no man hath hired us." Matt. 20:6-7.
"From time immemorial," said the speaker, "there have been those who would work and strive and there have been others among them who were shirkers and parasites. In the early colonial days, Captain John Smith found it necessary to make a law, those who do not work shall not eat."
The speaker stated that the problem of labor was one of the greatest problems before the world today. He said work was absolutely necessary. We live by our own toll, or we live by the toil of some one else.
At present we are confronted with the serious problem of unemployment. Statistics show that throughout the nation there are nearly three million individuals out of work. During 1928, there were 7,300 applications made for jobs at

"During the ten years of my pastorate, I have tried to protect a faith that would bring the Negro to the highest achievement on the basis of honesty and fair play. I have avoided as far as possible the preaching of provential, sectarian, or racial sermons. And I still believe in the catholicity of the Gospel of Christ, and the universal need of brotherhood, but my friends we are living in a physical world, where we must have the physical necessities of life, before we can lay the foundation for anything else.
"During the sixty-five years of freedom, the Negro has acquired more than two and a half billion dollars worth of property. With the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, he carries more than a hundred million dollars worth of insurance, and the company expresses its unusual gratitude by giving him a segregated office.

THE RECORDS
n-cause they're HOT!"
by THE BRUNSWICK-BAILE COLLENDER CO. Chicago
THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1929
ington have in banks downtown nearly a million dollars. On the corner of Eleventh and U streets, northwest, there is a splendid business enterprise, with nearly everything men desire; all kinds of musical instruments and music, and yet we pass it by to spend our money downtown. There is one finance corporation that boasts, during the last few years, has made more than seventy-five thousand dollars lending colored school teachers money. It is estimated that the Negroes in the District of Columbia spend over thirty million dollars per year for food. For clothing and household equipment industrial and otherwise, to keep they spend twenty millions. We carry enough insurance in this city, more than two hundred white agents busy collecting. Some of them make from fifty to one hundred dollars per week collecting from you and from me.
"We might as well face the whole situation frankly. Jobs for Negroes are becoming harder and harder to find. Why do I make such a statement?
"In the first place, we are a laboring class and have few or almost no jobs to speak of to give out. In the next place, in the very near future, there will be two white boys or girls waiting for every job the Negro seeks. It takes no seer to see what is bound to happen. In most cases the Negro will be turned aside with the proverbial statement. I am sorry, there is nothing today. In the meantime he is forced to steal or starve.
"Now, what has brought this situation about, which is more serious than I can express?
"In the first place, a wholesale exodus from the rural sections to the cities. Also the rapid invention of machinery which is displacing the service of men. One man with a tractor on the farm can do more work than ten men could formerly. One man with a helper with an excavating machine can do more work than a hundred men with pick and shovel. But the next reason is far more serious than either of the other two, because it is psychological rather than physiological. In other words, it is a direct attempt, on the part of some, to force the Negro into economic slavery. That is to say, in America today, you are not even considered as a competitor in some fields of labor. It makes no difference what your capabilities are, you cannot get certain jobs.
"What is the cure for this situation? What is it that will make us feel that we have an economic future or a fighting chance to make an honest living?
"We have hundreds of boys and girls graduating from high school and college every year. What do we expect them to do? They have got to live. Unless we take this question seriously and do something about it, while as now we have hundreds of college graduates eking out an existence on the Pullman cars and as hotel waiters, we will have thousands seeking employment anywhere they can find it.
"Are we surprised at the high mortality among us; the large number of thefts and burglary?
"In a measure, we are responsible for much of this situation. We carry enough insurance in the District to give employment to at least three hundred agents. We buy enough food to have ten large grocery stores with a staff of twenty or more clerks. We buy enough merchandise to have thirty stores with everything for men and women twice the size of Reid's corner. We handle enough money to make both of our banks in this city national banks.
"What does all this mean, and why am I taking time to relate it? It simply means, for the most part, that we can with the proper organization and co-operation, solve our future economic problems."
Rutherford Deplores Lack of Trained Men
Last June, immediately following the close of the high schools, colleges and universities, R. H. Rutherford, president of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, was interviewed with respect to the revenues open to the large number of graduates of the various colleges and universities. Now that the school terms are beginning again, Mr. Rutherford, who represents an organization constantly on the alert for trained men, has again submitted to an interview respecting this same matter.
He calls attention to the fact that many of the men who are graduating from the colleges and universities have no plans for the future, and when they graduate, they are very much at sea as to that their careers are to be. Many of them, he says, get into vocations for which they are not at all suited. In other words, they drift into these positions instead of being trained for them.
Heywood Broun Amused At Threat To Kill Him
Heywood Broun, columnist in the New Telegram and other Scripps-Howard newspapers, was very much amused at the death threat sent him recently by a person taking exception to Broun's recent article criticizing New York University authorities for refusing to allow David Myers, colored football star, to play in the game on November 9 with the University of Georgia.
Broun said "you may fire when ready, Buddy, but beware the dog and don't tramp on the flowers."

The 94th semi-annual session of the Washington Association of Congregational Churches was held Tuesday at the Lincoln Temple Congregational Church, 11th and R street, northwest, of which Rev. R. W. Brooks is pastor. Rev. Kyle Booth, of this city was elected Moderator and Rev. H. W. Goddard, secretary.
The principal speakers were Rev. C. E. Shelton, of Portsmouth, Va. who spoke on "The Degeneracy of The Adult Mind;" Rev. H. S. Hardcastle, of Suffolk, Va. was assigned, "The Function of the Church in the Modern Community."
Adult Degeneracy Discussed
Rev. Shelton declared that the normal adult intelligence in this country is 15 years of age. He stated that a great many Americans cease thinking when they leave high school to go to work. Many of that class known as "the tired business man," spend their spare time playing golf, selling musical shows, and reading detective stories. They never think of trying to improve their minds. Rex Harvey cares, said that the
dandruff will disappear and before long new hair will start to grow. You will be amazed at the improved condition of your hair and at what your friends will say.

mission's "Tenth Man" project. The contest is national in scope and all pupils of high schools and junior high schools are eligible to compete. It closes April 1st, 1930. A 5000-word pamphlet of source material has been prepared by the Commission and will be furnished free to any one interested, together with full information as to the conditions of the contest.
The announced purpose of these prizes is to encourage as widely as possible the study of the Negro's part in American history, which, according to the Commission, is much more interesting than is generally supposed. It is believed that such a study will be helpful to the children of both races, promoting more intelligent and objective attitudes on the one side, and developing wholesale pride of race on the other. The Commission asks the cooperation of high school principals and teachers, and also invites correspondence from pupils who may be interested.

sociation at its meeting Friday
night on request of the Committee
on Education, following a report of
that committee, made by W. H.
Lewis, Jr. a member of the Citi-
zen’s Legislative Advisory Coun-
cil. The report recommended the

corner of the Martin tract at 24
Flor Bennings Road, northeast,
42 acres of which has Been pur-
chased by the Commissioners for
three Colored schools; the Heath
School, a junior high’ school, and
an elementary platoon school. With
the need of a senior high school
in the northeast section only a
few years off, the committee felt
the ‘additional 13 acres would
Square up the tract and offer, 2
much better opportunity for build-
ing arrangements and athletic
field developments by having the
13 acres of the original tract.
Mr. Wilkinson addressed “him:
self to explaining the building pro.
gram for the 42 acres and com
mended the committee for its con:
structive recommendation looking
to the future senior high schoo
development. He said that the
purchase of the 42 acres grew ou!
of the change of heart on the part
of Congress regarding our healt}
school site on Blanderiirg Road
He stated that several physician:
inspected this site and all of them
expressed the opinion that this
was a choice site for a healt
school. ‘The health school will b
erected on the hill which is 10!
feet, above sea level, one of th:

Armstrong Beats Dunbar For City Championship
DUNBAR'S FUMBLE GIVES ARMSTRONG 6-0 VICTORY
After a 17-year old uphill struggle Armstrong came from behind so even the score in games with Dunbar in the American League Park, Monday to beat Dunbar by a score of 6-0 before over 2000 fans.
The two teams started their fued in 1912 and up until this year the Poets of Dunbar were in the lead.
The two teams fought on even terms until the last three minutes of the fourth quarter when a fumble by Mims paved the way for the lone score of the game.
Mims' Fumble
Mims attempted to kick out from his own 5-yard line; Morris, Armstrong quarterback, recovered the fumbled bail and fell on it on the 5-yard line. After two line plunges Shorter carried the ball over the goal line. On a fake drop kick by "Red Pine" Armstrong, a line drive for the extra point failed. The game was featured by brilliant runs and scintillating plays by members of both squads. The broken field running of Armstrong, the pile-driving plunges of Mims, of Dunbar, and the ball carrying of Starks and Shorter were the high points of the battle.
Both teams battled to a standstill during the first three quarters with a break coming to Armstrong in the third quarter when Starks ran 15-yards from Dunbar's 30-yard line to the 15-yard line. Here Armstrong worked the ball to the 6-yard line, but lost on downs when the Poet's line failed to give an inch. Mims kicked out of danger. Armstrong received the ball on Dunbar's 20-yard line where he was downed. Again Armstrong lost the ball on downs. Dunbar kicked to her 40-yard line and Shorter ran it back 15 yards. On two plays with Shorter carrying the ball he placed it on the 12-yard line where he fumbled and Dunbar recovered, but Morris blocked Mims' kick on the 12-yard marker as the quarter ended.
Dunbar Holds
Here Dunbar held until she won the ball on downs. With the ball near midfield Armstrong galloped to Dunbar's 30-yard strip. They made first down on the 20-yard line. On an end run Armstrong raced to the 10-yard line where his team again lost the ball on downs. Mims attempted to kick, but he fumbled the ball where it was recovered on the five yard line. On the next play it was carried to the one foot strip where it was taken over by Shorter. Fumbles on both sides marred the play at times, but the sterling work of Captain "Windy" Wallace of Armstrong, who played with a broken hand, the brilliant running of Armstrong and the line work of the Dunbar team featured.

David Myers Stars In Game Against Rutgers
NEW YORK.—Altho jimcrowed when his team plays southern teams David Meyers, New York University football star, was allowed to play Saturday when his team met and defeated Rutgers, 20-7.
Myers ran 48 yards for a touchdown in the last quarter which enabled the New York squad to win. Myers gained 193 yards in 20 runs and paved the way for both of his team's scores which prevented the game from being a tie.
Achilles Five Win
The Achilles basketball team defeated the strong Renaissance aggregation in two out of three closely contested games in the Y.M.C.A. gymnasium this week. The Renaissance team won the first game of the series with a score of 36-33, but were unable to cope with the fast Achilles five in the two return games and lost, 23-12, and 22-21.
These two teams are composed of the boys of the Y.M.C.A., and they desire games with juvenile teams throughout the city. Managers write to D. B. Taylor, 1816 Twelfth street, northwest, or call North 1054 after 6 p.m., and schedule games for the winter season.
CLERKS PLAY
The Government clerks' evening "Y" class is again in action. The men meet on Monday and Thursday evenings from 5:15 to 6:45. Last week the clerks played some interesting volley ball contests. They have a promising nucleus in Rutherford, Slad, Berry, Lucas, Stewart, and Robinson.
TIPS AND HUNCHES;

Dear Editor: I actually picked Howard to beat Morgan last week, while everybody else was looking for the Bears to win by at least two touchdowns. I know what the Bisons can do when the going is hard. Aside from this scoreless tie I had another perfect week.
Will let the boys know how my Thanksgiving Day selections come out next week. Yours as ever.

The Techmen have scored 213 points against their opponents' 26. Dunbar players were guests at the meeting. Principal G. David Houston, of Armstrong, praised both squads. Coach Westmoreland, of the victorious team, was praised by principal and students. Captain Mims, of Dunbar, was one of the speakers. Captain "Windy" Wallace, of Armstrong, presented the pikskin trophy to Principal Houston as an emblem of the city high school championship.
Business Men Defeat Y.M. C.A. Volleyballers
For the second consecutive time the business and professional men's noon day class administered a neat trimming to the "Y" staff men.

BALTIMORE STAR TO COMPETE HERE
The Twelfth Street Branch Y. M.C.A.'s first annual cross country race is attracting widespread attention. With the entry of Edgar Lee, of Washington, and John Carroll, of Baltimore, a hot contest is assured, but the latest entry of Paul Robinson, former Buffalo Tech high school star, will make the event a thriller. Robinson is reported as running the 3½-mile course in less than 18 minutes.
Robinson, a student at Dunbairn High School, will no doubt run under his school colors. Lee is expected to meet keener competition than in previous years. The senior course starts and ends in front of the Y.M.C.A. on Twelfth street. The course is as follows: Twelfth street to Barry place, east on Barry place to Eleventh street, north on Eleventh street to Fairmont, east on Fairmont to Georgia avenue, south on Georgia avenue to continue Fairmont street, east on Fairmont street to Sixth street, south on Sixth street to Main entrance of Howard University, east through Howard University to Fourth street, north on Fourth street and around the south end of reservoir to First street, south on First street to Adams street, west on Adams street to Third street, north on Third street to W street, west on W street to Sixth street, north on Sixth street to Georgia avenue, north on Georgia avenue to Barry place, west on Barry place to Twelfth street, south on Twelfth street to front of Y.M.C.A.

HOWARD-MORGAN FIGHTINSNOW TO A DEADLOCK
Battling in a blinding snow Howard University held the Morgan College bears to a scoreless tie in the Howard Stadium, Saturday before 1500 frenzied rooters. Morgan entered the game the favorites, but before five minutes of the first quarter it was readily seen that the Bisons were out to redeem themselves after a disastrous season of seven straight losses. Three times the Howard squad found itself on its own 5-yard line with their backs to the wall and as many times the bisons repulsed the bear eleven and won the ball on downs when Marshall kicked out of the danger zone.
Spurned Field Goal
Spurred Field Goal Morgan spurned a field goal on two occasions when they had the ball deep in Howard's territory. Nothing but a touchdown would soothe their vanity. This proved their undoing as each attempt to score near the Howard goal was smothered as Coach Verdell's battled scarred men fought like enraged tigers to defend their stronghold. Howard was way out in front during the first quarter. They kept the ball in Morgan's zone during this period and time and time again the bears found themselves on the defensive. The brilliant ball carrying of Ukkard and the excellent punting of Marshall played havoc with the visitors' every play. It was fully eight minutes of this quarter before Morgan come into possession of the ball.
Clarke Stars
Captain "Pinky" Clarke, of Morgan, aided by the William brothers, Bob and Phil, were the outstanding ground gainers for their team. The toe work of Lawless and the brilliant line plunges of Hicks and Spaulding stood out for the bears. Marshall, of Howard, at one time booted the ball from his own 10-yard line to Morgan's 20-yard marker, a distance of 70 yards. His punting saved his team several times when a block would have given Morgan an opportunity to score.
Air Attack Fails
Morgan opened up an air attack in the last quarter, but most of the passes were smothered or knocked down by the alert Verdellmen. In the first quarter Howard was on Morgan's 30-yard line after a fumble by Clarke and a 14-yard run by Marshall had placed the oval on this marker. After several attempts at the line Howard lost the ball on downs. This was as near the Bisons went, in the Morgan zone.
In the last quarter Spaulding carried the ball over for a touchdown, but Morgan players was offside and the ball brought back. At this point Howard held and won on downs.
Substitutions, Howard: E Harris for Perpall, Adams for Ukkard, J. Harris for Whiting, Mack for Cheyney, Ellis for J. Harris, Boswell for Martin. Morgan: R. Williams for Spaulding, P. Williams for Lawless, Berry for Waugh, J. Williams for Turpin.

Howard Students Hold "Pep Fest" Before Game
A "pep fest" was held in Andrew Rankin Chapel at noon Wednesday before the Howard team left for Philadelphia. Coach Thomas Verdell and Dean Dwight O. W. Holmes, varsity quarterback in 1902, were the speakers. Hundreds of Howard students left on the special excursion Thursday morning for the annual game between Howard and Lincoln at Philadelphia.
HORNET'S STING CLIPPED FOR FIRST TIME IN 3 YEARS
MONTGOMERY, Ala. — After three seasons of play undimmed by defeat, the Baby Hornet eleven of the Alabama State Teachers College had their record rather rudely and decisively upset at Paterson Field Friday when a fast Booker Washington High School eleven from Atlanta upset them to the tune of 19-8.
(By GARLAND MACKEY)
Football vs. Religion It is almost impossible for a Baptist minister to favor football or any other athletic sport. The failure of the Howard University football and other athletic activities to thrive these years is Dr. Johnson, the president of the University, is a Baptist minister and I have yet to see one that cared for or advocated sports. Many think baseball is a cardinal sin because players have to "steal" bases. I have heard them preach against "sinful" baseball for this very reason.
Dr. Johnson means well, but his "noble experiment," like the Volstead law, won't work. College athletics and especially football will never be run like high school athletics. In high schools all of the participants live in the city. Hardly any provision is made for sports so the boys make their own. There is a world of difference in college. Men are away from home. It's all the parents and the student can do to manage to pay board and tuition. Young men in college WILL play some game and if it is not in athletics, why it will be something else that may not meet the approval of the school officials or police. I believe in amateur sport in schools. All test the tramp athlete or the professional one, but to draw such a thin line as has been drawn at Howard is nothing less than ruinous to athletics at any school.
Ask 50-50 Break
As I understand it after talking with students, alumni and players, it is not money or expenses of tuition paid, but for a man to play college football some sacrifices have to be made and Howard men are asking the school to go fifty-fifty in these sacrifices. It's all right to yell "Amateur," but it takes money even to be an amateur, or a christian or minister. Giving a man a uniform and telling him to play ball doesn't make a player. Training is a big essential. It will cost somebody for the men to train and the player is in it for his school and the school ought to help to make the men the best possible athletes. Not by paying them a salary or giving free board. This salary business has been harped on worse than the "social" bug-bear is worked by some whites when the Negroe's rights are mentioned. It's
LINCOLN-HOWARD IN SCORELESS DEADLOCK
(Continued from page 1)
of a fumble stopped the Lincoln line headed for the goal.
The final deadlock was a moral victory for the Howard team which was on the short end of the betting. In fact Howard money was noticeable for its absence. Howard students say their team won a 0-0 victory over their ancient opponents as the bisons have failed to win a game this fall. In seven starts they have had as many losses save a scoreless tie with Morgan. Only one touchdown has been scored by Howard this year and that was in the West Virginia game Howard followers are satisfied with a "moral" victory, whatever that is or means to them. The outstanding victories of Lincoln this year made them overwhelming favorites.
Big Anderson, of Lincoln along with LeMar, Harmon and Sydnon were outstanding players for their team. Harmon's running and hurling of passes kept the Howard men up in the air. An aerial attack by Lincoln failed to gain much altho a 40-yard heave by Harmon to Baskerville in the last two minutes of the contest placed the ball on Howard's 3-yard marker. Another pass hurled by Harmon was knocked down by Marshall who came out of the nowhere and smacked the pass behind his own goal line. Before the Lions could get set for a plunge toward the goal the gun halted one of the most spectacular games in the annals of the classic.
The game started at 2:30 p.m. and was played in the Municipal Stadium for the first time. The big bowl seats 80 thousand and the small number of fans made the saucer look empty. Lincoln rooters were led by the John Wannamaker band and between the halves both bands, Howard and Lincoln, marched around the field cheered to the echo by 10,000 throats.
Nearly a quarter million dollars was represented in fur coats as the weather was cold the women and men set their finery off to advantage. Another cool million was in automobiles which represented nearly every state in the Union. From the swanky Rolls Royce to th lowly the ecars were packed around the big enclosure so tight that difficulty was had separating them after the game.
Philadelphia was one riot of color from end to end with the colors of the one school blending with the colors of the other. Restaurants were taxed to feed the mob as everybody seemed hungry and descended on cafes and hotels in groves. Broad street was packed from the Pennsylvania station to the stadium, which is the end of the thoroughfare. Police and citizens were over anxious to assist the visitors and the old Quaker City opened her doors and extended a royal welcome to visitors.
just this and nothing more; Give football men preference in school jobs so they can make practice. No athlete can hold an outside job and play football. His hours on the outside prevent not only practice but at times actual contexts. There are more jobs at Howard than can be filled with players. If the players fail to make good in the jobs fire them the same as any other employee. I understand that Dr. Johnson said football men failed to do their work. That's no reason why all should suffer because one or two did not come up to requirements.
Dr. Johnson said he played football while at college, if that is true it is all the more reason he should realize the struggles the colored college athlete has, to make ends meet. It's a long time since Dr. Johnson played football. He has been preaching longer and I am afraid the Baptist policy has overcome his one time love of sport.
The football season ends about Thanksgiving. By that time all of the jobs have been taken by other men while the players have been working for the glory of their school. At Howard men refuse to come out for this reason alone.
Football—Here To Stay
Believe, it or not football is in colleges to stay, and this game plays a big part in the school. To draw such a fine line is doing the school an injustice. I rarely see any of our ministers living up to the true spirit of Christ. They are not discarding their homes or cars to do as He did. Even a bishop takes a flyer in Wall Street. They prefer to mix common sense with religion. The same works in college sports. No school stresses amateur athletics more than Hampton Institute, yet this school refuses to draw such a line in regards to sports.
Dr. Johnson is an able educator, a great scholar, but this writer fears he does not understand the spirit of college sports, or the spirit of youth. Youth must be served and sooner or later the splendid men at Howard standing on the sidelines will be in the thick of the battle to place the blue and white on the pinnacle once held by this illustrous institution on the field.
Howard students celebrated the "moral victory" by singing songs and marching through the streets. Lincoln fans appeared disgruntled and resented the hilarity of Bison sympathizers. They failed to see the "joke in this moral victory" and blamed their team for failing to score with the many "breaks" that came their way.
Lincoln completed two out of six passes for a gain of 50 yards. Howard attempted three without completing any. Howard made two first downs against six by Lincoln. Howard recovered three out of four fumbles; Lincoln recovered one out of three.
Howard won the toss and chose the west goal. Lee kicked to Harmon who ran the ball back 20 yards to his 40-yard line. Harmon fumbled, but a Lincoln man recovered. On the next play Anderson kicked to midfield. Howard recovered the punt on her 45-yard line. A pass by Wilson grounded. Harris fumbled and Lincoln recovered.

On the next try at the line Lincoln fumbled and Howard recovered. Marshall stepped off five yards through center. Howard's fumble was recovered on her 20-yard line. Marshal dropped back to kick and booted the ball to the 40-yard line. The ball was brought back as Lincoln was off and was penalized five yards. Marshall's pass was intercepted by James, of Lincoln, on Howard's 30-yard line. Lincoln gained two yards at center. On the next two plays the ball being carried by Harmon and Clark made first down on Howard's 16-yard line. Anderson dived through for two more yards at center. Clark ran around right end to the 10-yard line. Lincoln failed to gain on the next try at the line. Mack stopped the next Lincoln man behind the line of scrimmage. The ball went to Howard on downs.

Lewis gained five yards off tackle, but the ball was brought back and Howard penalized five yards for offside. Harman gained 2 yards, but when he started off on the next play Mack stopped him in his tracks. Lewis made it first down on Howard's 35-yard line. Howard called time out. Sydnor ran around left end for 15 yards to Howard's 20-yard line. Clark on an end run carried the ball to the 15-yard line. Sydnor went around right end to the 10-yard line. On an offtackle

HOWARD HOLDS HAMPTON TO TIE
HAMPTON, Va.—Howard University and Hampton Institute fought to a tie here Saturday in the first inter-collegiate soccer game in the history of the C.I.A.A. In a driving rain the two teams battled fiercely in an effort to win this first match. When the final whistle blew, fate had been impartial, and the game ended with both teams deadlocked at 3-3. Hampton was the first to score on a penalty shot during the second ugarter. After a concerted attack Captain Nyabongo laced a straight shot through the uprights. Gray followed this a few minutes later with a well directed shot from his left wing position, making the score 2 to 1 in favor at half time.
The Sea-siders took the field in the second half determined to come from behind. They soon worked the ball up the field, and after several minutes of fast scrimmage before the Howard goal, made the tying score. With about five seconds to go in the final quarter, Brown, the Bison's stalwart back, booted a scorching shot at the Hampton goal, but Wueen, the flashy goal keeper made a brilliant save which averted a Hampton defeat.

Miss Burroughs Says Preachers Not Called To Do Everything
BEST PREACHERS NEVER GET WHAT THEY DESERVE; BAD ONES GET TOO MUCH
By Miss Nannie H. Birroughs
Preachers, as a class are just
about as human as mei in other
character-building professions.
Some of them get as much pay;
many of them get more presents;
all of them get more dissecting
and analyzing. The best ones
never get what they deserve and
the crooked ones get away with too
much. The fraternity as a whole,
gets more confidence and bury
more secrets than the members of
other International orders of the
Helpers of Men.
Ministers occupy more responsible
position than any other class of
men. They should, therefore,
be cleaner in character, more unselfish in purpose, qualified in training, progressive in ideals, social minded in spirit, devout in heart, and not lazy.
Modern standards and conditions require that ministers fill their minds before they open their mouths. The bird cannot lead the blind, and those who have sight are not going to let the blind lead them. Ministers of today have super-human tasks to perform and the must not only be called of Go and then trained in theology, but they must have special training in executive and administrative church work.
Their first duty, however, is to preach the gospel. To make their work effective they must know how to pln, adopt, manage, direct, and develop a program of Christian service. They must be city preacher and, at the same time, gospel farmers. They must plow the field plant the seed, and cultivate the crop. It requires intelligence, technical training, conservation industry, love, sanctified common sense, and vision to do it.
The minister stands in a large place of opportunity and obligation, and no ordinary men can stand there. Character is the first qualification, without that the minister is a menace. We have thousands of men who say that Go called them to preach. Well, we will have to take their word fo it since it is God's business to do the calling, but since the churches must have prepared men, it might be their business to call it "called" to prepare.
The early ministers among Negroes had the spirit which was a fine substitute for their educational lack. They were marvelous men. Some of them are still going on gloriously, but we have a large army of young gospel hoboes who lack everything except lung power. Instead of going to school they make a bee-line for the pulpit and wade around misrepresenting the Lord. They should not be allowed to try to preach until they are prepared.
The day has come when ministers who are trained in Hebrew, Greek, and Theology should take courses in modern church management. Not many churches able to employ assistant priests. Many churches do not need assistant pastors, but all churches need good executives—not men who want to run everything themselves—but men who know how to "parcel out the work," place responsibility, and get results. In this day when laymen are intelligent it is only fair and sensible to let them help carry on the work of the church. It develops them and enriches the church. If the preachers would give the laymen more definite work to do the preachers would not have so much trouble. Laymen have to have some work to do or they certainly will work the preacher.
Of course it is not the layman's business to run the church, but it is his business to help. Don't forget—while we are talking about training—that the deacons and trustees need training as well as the preachers. Dumb deacons have gone out of style, and trustees who cannot read and understand cannot be trusted.
Our churches are too loosely organized and that is why so many members are running wild. If the ministers were practical executives this condition would not prevail. Many of our preachers like to be the whole show in their churches. They do everything from raising the collection to raising sand. That is the kind of usurpation that will result in bad management and the reason why churches run down on the minister or run the minister down.
The fact of the matter is that when it comes to the work that is done by the pastor, the average church gets a great deal more than it pays for. This of course, is partly the preacher's fault. In too many of our churches the preacher is the lawyer, doctor, real estate dealer, teacher, editor, social worker, taxi driver, architect, builder, banker, special adviser, politician, and preacher—thirteen in one. He is consulted about everything and tries to dabble in everything. A jack of all trades in the pulpit is usually a "jackleg."
Every preacher should be interested in Community Welfare, but no man can fill thirteen positions without running into some kind of bad luck in handling twelve of them. The sensible preacher preaches the gospel and directs
NEW AMBULANCE IS SOUGHT BY HOSPITAL HEAD
Dr. Warfield of Freedmen's Makes Recommendations To Secretary Wilbur
A cook, a clerk, an ambulance, and a laborer are among the recommendations submitted by Dr. W. A. Warfield, surgeon in chief at Freedmen's Hospital to Secretary of the Interior, Wilbur this week. The report covered the fiscal year ended June 30, 1929. Dr. Warfield also pointed out that the hospital ambulance is a vintage of 1923, is expensive to operate, and it is never known when it leaves the hospital whether it will return or not under its own power.
The clerk is needed in the outpatient department; the cook to prepare midnight meals for night employees, and the laborer to keep the grounds of four acres clean. Other recommendations were for an obstetrical ward, a clinic building, two technicians and an increase in salary for employees. The report declared that 85 per cent of the employees are receiving the minimum salary of their grades, altho their efficiency ratings and years of service justify an increase. Dr. Warfield's report states: "An obstetrical ward is a real human need that touches, in the first instance, the infant who is to become the future citizen of the Republican. If well born, there is added hope at the very beginning of existence for a more useful and healthy adult life.
"Furthermore, the release of the ward at present used for maternity work will afford the necessary increase of pediatric cases, which must be forthcoming not only for teaching purposes but in order to meet the requirements of the various State nursing boards of registration.
Clinic Building
"This building is urgently needed to properly house the clinic activities for out-patients. The present facilities are entirely inadequate to care for the number of out-patients applying for treatment. During the preceding fiscal year 25,272 were treated in small rooms widely scattered, making it difficult to render satisfactory service or to afford room for more than a limited number of medical students at a time.
"The medical students of Howard University are dependent solely on this hospital for clinic material, which under present conditions, can not be satisfactorily developed both from the standpoint of the patients and the needs of the medical school as a teaching asset. All medical educators agree that the most effective, if not the most important, part of the student's clinical training should be carried on in the dispensary. Moreover, a clinic building would effect a distinct saving in that many patients could be treated without the necessity of having them admitted into the hospital.

REFUSED TO PLAY AGAINST NEGRO, GAME CANCELLED
REFUSED TO PLAY AGAINST NEGRO, GAME CANCELLED
ALTOONA, Pa.—(Special to the Tribune) The football game between Cumberland High School, of Maryland, and the Altoona High School was cancelled here Saturday when the southern school refused to play when they learned that a colored boy was on the Altoona team and would play in the game. Edward "Sunny Boy" Milton is one of the stars on the Altoona squad and his coach, faculty and members of the school board stood behind the edict of the faculty manager, Robert E. Wolfe, who said before the game on Wednesday that if the colored boy could not play "we won't play."
The Chamber of Commerce, 20 religious organizations and the Altoona press stood behind the team and editorials appeared daily stating that the colored boy should be allowed to play and to call the game off if the "crackers" refused to go on with the game. Milton is one of the stars of the team in the school with over 2,500 students with only 20 colored and two colored in the senior class. His mother is a widow and his sister works as a janitor in order that Edward may continue school. Two of the school principals, Prof. Robb, of the high school, and Prof. Byrd, of the junior high school, commended the actions of the coach and manager. All organizations in the city passed resolutions commending the school officials and condemning the southern team
Unlike New York University which refused to allow David Myers to play with his team against the University of Georgia, the Altoona school gave out the notice that Milton will not be barred and didn't say he was sick like the New York University. Catholic University played against a Negro boy on quiesce, but they didn't know because Raymond Kemp, theayer was as white as any on either team.
Speakers of note, including Col. West A. Hamilton, Attorney John H. Wilson, and Dr. A. L.

N. C. BAPTISTS APPOINT RACE RELATION BODY
SHELBY, N. C., Nov. 21.-The State Baptist Convention, white in session here last week, put the stamp of approval upon the interracial movement and provided for cooperation with it by the election of a Commission on Race Relations, consisting of fourteen of its prominent members. This action, it is understood, was brought about through the efforts of Dr. W. C. Jackson, vice-president of the State College for Women and chairman of the Southern Commission on Interracial Cooperation.
The Commission named by the Baptists is headed by Dr. W. L. Poteat, for many years president of Wake Forest College, and associated with him are the following members: W. H. Williams, Charlotte; Ira D. S. Knight, Durham; W. C. Jackson, Greensboro; J. W. Incheloe, Rocky Mount; Zeno Wall, Shelby; I. G. Greer, Boone; E. McK. Goodwin, Morganton; C. E. Brewer, Raleigh; J. B.

DR. KLEIN SAYS COLLEGES MUST RAISE STANDARDS
Although within the last ten years remarkable gains have been made in the development of institutions of higher learning for Negroes in the United States, the task of Negro colleges is to raise the standards accepted as a minimum standard among white institutions, says Dr. Arthur J. Klein, chief of the division of higher education in the office of education in the Interior Department. Commenting upon his survey of Negro colleges and universities, Dr. Klein said the investigation tends to point out the needs in individual institutions and may serve to enable them to comply with national and regional education bodies that fix standards for higher institutions.
This means quite a different thing in the North than it does in the South, Dr. Klein explained. In the North in the territory of the middle States and Maryland, and the north central States, where educational institutions accredit Negro institutions, there is some one or somebody always ready to examine and to pass upon the progress made by Negro institutions there in attaining standards.
South Not Rated
In the South there is no such authoritative regional body that will pete Negro educational institutions, Dr. Klein stated. The Southern

Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, which performs this function for white institutions in the South, Dr. Klein said, has as yet not taken action which results in rating Negro colleges and high schools. Dr. Klein pointed out that the problem of Negro education is primarily one of the Southern States which they are attempting to meet. There is a tendency to build up Negro education as part of a social problem common to both races, and there has been established in practically every Southern State divisions and sections in the State departments of education charged with the responsibility of Negro education in the State.
The Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Education has appointed a committee to inquire into the function it shall play in the rating of northern high schools and colleges. Dr. Klein said it is hoped that at the annual meeting in December some action will be taken in respect to this matter. Though it is a southern problem primarily, it was pointed out that inasmuch as Negro teachers and professional men must be trained in northern institutions, and since the southern states depend upon such training for their supply of

well-prepared teachers and supervisors in Negro schools, it would appear to be a part of their responsibility to the northern institutions to pass upon the character of southern high schools and colleges which send students to those northern institutions.
Until some authoritative body in the South rates Negro high schools and colleges, the northern institutions will have difficulty in settling problems of administration and training for the Negroes who plan to return to their southern homes upon the completion of their advanced study, Dr. Klein added. Dr. Klein, in referring to his survey of the Negro colleges again stressed the need for their increase in number and development so that the Negro race may have opportunities proportional to its population ratio and social and economic needs.

The character building program
“which is one of the most. vital

stressed this year is punctuality.
The students are looking forward
eagerly tova series of stimulative
features which will surpass even
those of last year. They are ex-
pecting more original plays pre-
sented under student directors;
posters made by the art depart:
ment; home-room discussions of in-
|teresting cases which involve
punctuality. Through such activi-
| ties interest will be aroused anc
the success of last year will be re-
| peated.

However, the firm that is install-

James B. Jones is one of the
foremost. Negro musicians, but he
will never be heard in the cafes of
Harlem.
Jones is a native of Texas who
has a marvelous baritone voice. He
conducts his. own orchestra in
flassical selections, and often leads
tplored choirs in’ the Hollywood
Epwi, a home of symphonic music.
After spending three years in re-
search work, delving into the his-
tory of Negro folk songs, Jones
says he is not an advocate of jazz,
holding that it is not’ the real Ne-
gro music. He casts his ballot for
the old spirituals.
Jones’ splendid voice is heard in
“Fast Life,” the First, National
Vitaphone ‘story of modern, youth
which starts Saturday at the Re-
Bublic Theatre, Douglas Fairbanks
jr., and Loretta Young, with Ches-

Peoples Mutual Co. Says Policy Holder Will Not Get a Cent
INSURANCE CO. REFUSES TO PAY SICK WOMAN
Peoples Mutual Benefit Co Says Woman Will Not Get A Cent
The People's Mutual Benefit Insurance Company, Sixth street, between E and F, refused to pay Mrs. Ida M. Turner, 5523 Foot street, northeast, weekly indemnity after she was badly beaten by a policeman on October 6, and confined to her home for six weeks.
Mrs. Turner was returning from church the day she was accosted by Officer Aythur Fredette, who later charged her with assault, and she was fined by Judge Mattingly in police court. It was testified that Mrs. Turner was not under the influence of liquor and the officer used his stick after she was helpless on the ground. When the woman's husband applied to the insurance company she was told she would not be given a cent. The matter came to the attention of the Tribune this week.
A reporter called at the office of the company, Wednesday, and was told by the manager that Mrs. Turner was convicted and would not be paid. She has been paying a weekly sum of 25 cents for 11 years, and in that time she has paid in a sum of $143, although the principal sum is only $125. Her weekly indemnity is $5.
The manager of the company dodged behind a clause in the policy that stated that "it does not cover accidents or illness due to or resulting from narcotics or intoxicants." It was proven in court that the policeman used stringent measures in arresting Mrs. Turner.

investigating the case and the director for Washington pointed out to the Tribune that many persons are victimized by agents who collect huge sums among colored people and in time of stress these companies dodge behind all sorts of tricks to evade paying those that carry policies. A movement is on foot to point out these companies and warn the public against dealing with them.
TUSKEGEE WINS
MONTGOMERY, Ala.—A determined and conspicuously-superior Tuskegee Tiger outfit literally crushed the tough Alabama State Teachers' College Hornet squad here at Cratton Bowl, Saturday, to the tune of 20-0, in the feature game before an enthusiastic crowd that was not so large as usual because of excessive rains and the cold cloudy day which Alabama State drew for her alumni homecoming game of 1929.

B. N. DUKE LIBRARY DEDICATED AT KITTRELL COLLEGE
THE HOSPITAL
The B. N. Duke Library, recently dedicated at Kittrell College College upon the occasion of the inauguration of David K. Cherry as president. The building, in addition to being one of the finest library buildings on a Negro college campus in the country, is unique in that it stands at Kittrell as it formerly stood on the campus at Duke University. When the new $50,000,000 Duke University was begun, this building was, with two others, given to Kittrell College. It was carefully dismantled, each stone and other materials were carefully preserved and marked and shipped to Kittrel. There the materials were reassembled, the building was re-erected in exact replica as it once stood at Duke, and the final construction work on the building was done by the same contractor who originally erected it at Duke. President Few and Dr. Flowers of Duke University were present at the recent dedication at Kittrell, and also attended the original dedication of the same building at Duke University.

Philadelphia and Richmond Vied For Holiday Crowd
Washington society has been busily engaged for the past week. The Howard-Lincoln football game at Philadelphia and the Hampton-Union game at Richmond vied with each other in attracting those interested in this type of amusement. However, we find that each game was well attended, and the guests were all shown a very enjoyable time.
There were quite a few visitors in the city en route to the games, and they were shown many courtesies by their Washington friends. Among the visitors in the city were Miss Grace Boyd, Mr. Thomas Brown, Mr. Thomas Dean, Mr. Richard Allen, and Mr. Harry Moore, all of Atlantic City, N.J. During their stay they were entertained extensively. The night of their arrival they were guests at the Bamboo Inn. Among those present were Miss Edna Deaver, of Baltimore; Miss Valerie and Vermille Turner, Mrs. Ethel Holland, Miss Blanch Williams, Mrs. Agnes Williams, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Turner, Mr. Leroy Morris, Mr. Bob Lattimore, of New York City, and Mr. Eugene Smith.
The Bachelor-Benedict Club entertained on last Friday night with their usual pre-Thanksgiving dance. The hall was beautifully decorated and the club was very solicitous in seeing that all present enjoyed themselves. After tripping the light fantastic toe until the wee hours of the morning many wended their way to the Bamboo Inn to complete the round of pleasures.

To End a Cough In a Hurry, Mix This at Home
To End a Cough In a Hurry, Mix This at Home
To end a stubborn cough quickly, it is important to soothe and heal it: inflamed membranes; get rid of the germs and also to aid the system inwardly to help throw off the tangle. For these purposes, here is a homemade medicine, far better than anything you could buy at 8 times the cost. From any druggist, get 2½ ounces of Finesx. Four this into a pint bottle, and pour gramstraw into the pint. This takes but a moment, and makes a remedy so effective that you will never do without, once you have used it. Keeps perfectly, and children like it. This remedy does three necessary things. First, it loosens the germ-laden phlegm. Second, it soothes away the inflammation. Third, it is absorbed into the blood, where it acts directly on the bronchia tubes. This explains why it is so effective. This same bronchia which follows cold epidemics.
Pinex is a highly concentrated compound of guajava Norway Pine, containing the active agent of cresote, in a refined, palatable form, and known for the greatest health benefits. Several coughs and bronchial troubles it does not accept a substitute for Pinex. It is guaranteed to give prompt relief or money refunded.

President Johnson was the prin-
cipal speaker before the Baptist
Ministers’ Conference, Monday. He
spoke on the “Intellectual Under-
standing of the Bible.” He said,
“The majority group in this coun-
try have been warped in their very
understanding of the spirit of the
Bible. You cannot commit violence
to the Gospel over a period of
years and then’ claim you under-
Stand. the Spirit of that Gospel.
‘One may be a mighty lecturer on
the Bible and yet not understand
what was in the heart of Jesus.
“In the South,” said Dr, Johnson,
“they worship the book which tells
of the Gospel but knew nothing of
the spirit of the Gospel as taught
therein, Their treatment of col-
ored people belies their professed
knowledge of Jesus.”
‘The speaker closed by saying:
“There is no book in the world
that can guarantee you that God
lives. You live by faith and your
faith is in God.”
Rev. W. H. Jernagin said “There
are hundreds of preachers who do
not preach the gospel as they sce
it, but are preaching to the gal-
Jeries, and a lot of this gailery food
is indigestible.”
Rev. A. Sales said, “We must
teach the people how to live in this
world and not in heaven.”
Rev. W. L. Washington said,
“We as ministers should spend our
leisure time in study and reading
of the Bible and related subjects.
