W. Va. May Have to Pay $10,000 For Lynchings THREE IN CIRCLE GANG FREED 7 CENTS PER COPY Supreme Court Of State Reverses Kanawha County Court in Greenbrier County Lynching Case. CHARLESTON, W. Va.,-Atty. T. Gillis Nutter has won another signal victory for his race in the Greenbrier County lynching case. It will be recalled that some months ago a mob took two colored men, accused of murder, from the Greenbrier county jail and lynched them. The Anti-Lynching statue of West Virginia provides that any county in which a prisoner is lynched shall pay to the relatives of the victim the sum of $5,000, recovered by action in any court of the state. Suit was instituted in the Kanawah County Court by Thelma Mullens, administrix of George Banks, one of the mob victims, against Greenbrier County. The court ruled against the estate on the grounds of lack of jurisdiction, holding that action should be brought in the county in which the crime was perpetrated. Upon appeal to the State Supreme Court the case was reversed and remanded, sustaining the contention of counsel that under the action may be brought in any Court of jurisdiction in the state. Judge Litz, handing down the opinion for the Court, ruled that: "An action against a county under Chapter 61, article 6, section 12, Code, to recover the forfeiture of any person charged with crime, who has been taken from a state, county or municipal officers in said country and put to death, may be brought in any state having jurisdiction of the subject matter." Attorney Nutter represented the plaintiff in the case and added to cause of justice for Negro citizenship rights in West Virginia another victory. Mr. Nutter won the Negro's property rights in the state in Huntington case when a solored citizen was prohibited by the local courts from occupying property purchased by him in a white oality, and also the Charleston library case in which the Negro itizene' rights were established in West Virginia for all time.

Washington Tribune Firemen Rescue Man From Narrow Ledge Amid Cheers Of White Athletes (CNS)—Trapped on a fifth-story of an apartment house here, last week, Wilfred Holman was in a tough spot until he was finally rescued by firemen. Holman was engaged in removing awnings from the building when a small French window swung forward, imprisoning him on the narrow ledge. Efforts of several persons to rescue him proved futile, and after an hour had elapsed a call was put in for the fire department, which responded and hoisted a ladder, assisting the man to the ground. A group of spectators at a football game which was being played between two white schools forgot the game and cheered the firemen as the colored man reached the ground safely. POLICE CONNECT MAN WITH ARSON IN 25 FIRES Howard Banks Confesses Starting Blazes In District Howard Banks, 26, 1213 New York avenue, northwest, was held under $10,000 bond Wednesday in connection with 25 fires which he is alleged to have set to various buildings in the District. Judge John P. McMahon continued the preliminary hearing of Banks until next Tuesday in order to give the government more time to gather data before going forward with the prosecution. Admits Guilt Police said Banks admitted having started the fires and also admitted his connection with a ring of housebreakers. The man was arrested October 12, by Sergeant Bert Shelton, of the First Precinct, when Banks was seen running from a fire near Twelfth and K streets, northwest. Although many of the fires were started in prominent residential sections, most of them were trash blazes. More than a score of persons are complainants and witnesses in connection with the various fires. $5,000 Blaze The largest fire for which Banks is believed to be responsible was in a machine shop near Eighteenth and E streets, northwest, with an estimated damage of $5,000. Alexander Davis, believed to be an accomplice of Banks, is being held for investigation at First Precinct. Police are also searching for other members of what is believed to be a ring of housebreakers and fire bugs led by Banks and Davis. It is reported that the men usually work as auto polishers in the neighborhood of a place they plan to loot.

The Coroner said that he died from a fractured skull received on September 17. It was brought out at the inquest that Perry was in a card game at Lula Grady's apartment, 320 V street, northwest, on the night of September 17, with Earl Proctor, "Head" Kenney, Pearl Proctor, and Walter Grady. A light started and Perry received several blows which fractured his skull on the left side above the ear. Walter Grady testified that he and his sister, Lula, carried Perry to Freedmen's Hospital, where he was examined and were told that the injury was not serious, and they left the hospital. The internes at Freedmen's say the man left without being treated, and there is not record of his having been there. On September 23, Perry was carried to Emergency where he was treated and transferred to Gallinger. Detective C. N. Strange, of No. 2 Precinct, testified that he talked with Perry at Gallinger Hospital and found him reluctant to give the details of the fight. However, he named Earl Proctor, "Head" Kenney and Walter Grady as being in the fight, with Earl Proctor being the aggressor. The jury returned the verdict that Perry died as the result of a fractured skull sustained in a fight with the three men mentioned by Detective Strange and held them for the action of the grand jury. Earl Proctor and "Head" Kenney have not been apprehended by the police. Two men were drowned Sunday while attempting to cross the Potomac River a short distance below Chain Bridge, when their boat cannized in midnight.

Fight Over Possession Of Gun Ends With One Hurt During an altercation at 1428 T street, northwest, over the possession of a pistol, Clarence Toby, 36, was hit over the head by several unknown men. The man was treated at Freedmen's Hospital for lacerations of the forehead and eye. He was later held under an investigation charge at the Second Proving once again that truth is stranger than fiction, the 24-year belief that her parents were dead came to an abrupt, but happy ending here last week when the "living dead" mother and father of Mrs. Azeal Ashton, of 1201 Carrollburg place, southwest, suddenly came to life. The girl formerly Miss Aceal Bowie, of 210 H street, and a Miner Normal School graduate, and her parents, Mrs. Lillian and Mr. Napoleon Coleman, of Woodford, Va., never experienced a more happier moment than last Sunday when the trio came face to face with each other at the daughter's home. Living within a radius of 100 miles apart for over ten years, the parental love for their only daughter whom they were forced to leave during the depression days of 1908, caused Mr. and Mrs. Coleman to make a search for her and finally affected a reunion. As the story goes, when the child reckened the child or three weeks, the parents had been feeling the bitter sting of the depression, and had almost peacefully despondency, were offered a job on a country home. The requirements for the job stated that the couple must not have any children. After much effort, the only way the Colemans were able to get anyone to take care of their daughter was to give their consent to never return for her. Rather than denive the child of the proper care and training, and an opportunity to receive an education, the parents consented to John Foster, 34, of the 900 block of R street, northwest, was being held early this week on a charge of investigation in connection with the alleged criminal assault on Frances E. Davis, 26, of the 900 block of S street, northwest; Policeman of the Second Precinct arrested Foster Tuesday after the woman had related her story to them. According to the officers, she was walking north on Ninth street near R street when a man approached her and asked her to follow him. When she refused, she stated, he forced her by means of threats to accompany him to a house in the 900 block of R street, where he is alleged to have forced her to go through with an unnatural intercourse. She told police she was too frightened to make an outcry. 12 Persons And Corpse On Way To Cemetery Injured In Auto Crash LEXINGTON, Miss. (CNS)—A truckload of colored people last week were injured, several of them severely, while on their way to a cemetery here with the corpse of a friend. Every member of the funeral cortege was injured, twelve of them when the truck in which they were riding plunged 125 feet into the undergrowth and wooded hollow of an enbankment. According to reports of persons involved the machine, stalled on a sleep incline and rolled backwards, getting out of control when the brakes failed to work. The casket was completely demolished, and the body had to be returned for this heartbreaking agreement. Thus, the parents started a separation which might have never brought them together again. Foster Parent Dies The girl was cared for by her foster mother, Mrs. Hattie K. Bowie who died two years later. Since the day of Mrs. Bowie's death (the woman whom Mrs. Ashton believed to be her mother) the girl has lived with Mrs. Ella Harrington and her foster grandfather, Nelson Keith at the H street address. The secret of her real parents was never told her. over 100 miles from Washington, learned of their daughter's marriage about three weeks ago and immediately tried to lobte her. Prior to Mrs. Ashton's marriage, the parents had reluctantly refrained from coming to her because of the agreement and the knowledge that she was being well cared for by her foster parents. Communication through some Island were made to Mrs. Harington and like Rip Van Winkle, the parents whom the girl had believed dead for over two decades suddenly came to life. When questioned as to how she fell, Mrs. Ashton, her face full of smiles, said "It all seems like a dream, and I am so happy I hardly know what to say." After spending the day in Washington with their daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Coleman returned to their home where they own a large farm. ESTRANGED HUBBY INFLICTS SEVERE WOUNDS ON WIFE ESTRANGED HUBBY INFLICTS SEVERE WOUNDS ON WIFE Following a bitter struggle with his wife at the woman's home, 619 U street, northwest, late Wednesday night, John Henry Fisher, 25, estranged husband of Mrs. Ruth Fisher, was being held at the Second. Precinct yesterday pending the outcome of his wife's wounds. The woman was in an undetermined condition at Freedmen's Hospital where she was taken after the assault. Thirteen stitches were necessary to close the wound in her neck allegedly inflicted by a pen-knife in the hands of Fisher. According to the story reported to police by Clarence Whitby, uncle of Mrs. Fisher, and Emanuel Gant, both residents of the U street house, the man entered the house in a fit of rage and severely beat his estranged wife after they couldn't agree. Police investigation revealed that a bitter struggle had taken place, as blood was found spattered over the bed, floor and clothing in the room. Mr. Whitby, 60, received a minor incarceration of the right hand when he attempted to halt Fisher after the assault. He was also treated at Freedmen's Hospital. Fisher, who gave his address as 2010 Vermont avenue, northwest, was apprehended a $h$ hour later by police. In a statement to police, he said he purchased the pen knife to use on his wife, and if she had not pulled a gun on him he would have finished the job. A 32 calibre pistol was found in Mrs. Fisher's possession. The gun was loaded with four shells, one of which had been discharged: A charge of assault with intent to kill is expected to be placed A CLOSE-UP ON F. D. ROOSEVELT Principal Of Armstrong Hi School Relates Personal Side Of Roosevelt The most idealistic relationship between man and man is a tried and approved friendship over a protracted period of years. For thirty-two years, I have been acquainted with Franklin D. Roosevelt, and for almost the full extent of this period, there has been a warm friendship between us, as may easily be attested by our correspondence. I have delighted in his ever increasing achievements,, and he has manifested a reciprocal interest in all my aspirations. In fact, I list, as two of the most genuine friends, that I have ever had, the late Senator Henry Cabot Lodge and Franklin D. Roosevelt, both Harvard men, but of widely different periods. Mr. Roosevelt and I met at Harvard, both entering the same year, 1900, and being graduated in 1904 though he finished his requirements in 1903. It so happened that we elected many of the same courses, thus seeing each other frequently in classes. Now at Harvard, where aristocracy controls the general culture of the college, or at least wielded such an influence in our day, the mighty and the lowly rubbed elbows together without fear or trembling. It required two stiff years of preliminary and final examinations to reach the freshman class, so that there was a kindred feeling among all the entrants, with a common sympathy for one another is that perilous English "A" was faced, starting a poor fellow off on "Who I Am and Why I Came to Harvard."

Blue, 42, of 1331 Eighth street, northwest, who, they say, was driving the car. He was charged with reckless driving. Ferdinand Green, 35, 1433 T street, n rthwest, was injured in an auto mishap at Georgia ave. and W streets. He suffered bruises of the left arm and right side. Others hurt in automobile accidents over the week-end were: George Hill, 20, 607 Q street, northwest, who sustained cuts about the left hip and a sprained wrist, and Wilson Branson, 17, of 1161 Eighth street, northwest. The latter trio were given first aid at Freedman's Hospital. Evelyn Stark, 10, 1919. Second street, northwest, was injured at First and Florida avenue, northwest. She sustained a laceration of the left hip, and was also treated at Presbyterian Hospital.

(CNS)—There is in the Mississippi State pententiary today a 30-year-old colored man who though offered pardons continually, has steadfastly refused to accept. The man gives as his reason for refusing a pardon, that the prison is his home. This incident recalls to mind the case of Jesse Pomoroy, white, who died in the Massachusetts pententiary after 56 years of life behind the bars. Pomoroy was sentenced for a vicious murder while still a youth, and though to all appearances he had reformed officials were afraid to lose upon society a man whom they knew had a cruel streak in his being. So to Pomeroy the prison became a name as it has for the 90-year-old colored man who sits behind the cold gray walls of the Mississippi penal institu- help but notice the advertise- tribune, the number of them, the and their attractive display.

John H. Wilson Three members of the Logan Circle gang were freed Thursday morning when Justice Alfred A. Wheat sustained a motion by Attorney John H. Wilson asking for a directed verdict. The men freed are Leroy Robinson, Louis Murray and Harry Duvall. Justice Wheat sustained the motion following a brilliant plea by Attorney Wilson, who pointed out that the three youths are ruined were not connected will the slaying of Park Policeman M. O. Kennedy, who was fatally beaten last August 6, while he was attempting to arrest a man in the circle. Attorney Wilson pointed out to the court that Robinson had nothing to do with the attack on the officer and was the one that called a taxicab, assisted the injured officer and helped take him to Garfield Hospital. Robinson's shirer was covered with blood when he held the injured policeman's head against his breast. Robinson in his statement denied taking a part in the assault. Attorney Wilson also pointed out that Murray and Duvall were not participants in the attack. Attorney Wilson clashed with Prosecutor Collins in a verbal battle when the Assistant United States attorney sought to have the three boys tried along with Joseph J.

Hitt in jury branch of Police Court tomorrow morning (Saturday). Changing their pleas of not euilty to ones of "guilty" in court Wednesday morning, the "mass- sengers" were ordered to reappear in court Saturday for sentence. Both faces a maximum fine of $100 on the massaging charge while Miss Alexander is also charged with running a disordery house. The girls entered guilty pleas on advice of their counsel, Attorneys Arnold Scott.

Everyday the trial has been called hundreds have packed the small courtroom to get a glimpse at the "massagers." The two women appeared in court neatly dressed in late fall fashion Wednesday and apparently were not abashed at their "profession." The two girls were arrested easily in October by Detectives C. C.

Manning of the Second Precinct after numerous complaints of white men visiting their apartment at 732 Lamont street, where they are alleged to have operated a "massaging parlor" for white only. The women were trapped by the detectives who posed as clients, and obtained an appointment for a massage. BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL HOME OF QUALITY AND SERVICE E. W.

Union Saturday, Oct. 22, 1932 at Howard University Stadium HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS (with Identification Card).....25c ADMISSION (Except Howard-Lincoln Game).....55c Howard vs. Morgan, November 5 Howard vs. Lincoln November 24 at HOWARD UNIVERSITY STADIUM TWELVE SEWELL IS STAR AS HOWARD WINS Former Dunbar Boy Scores Lone Touchdown Against West Virginia By Arthur Carter HOWARD STADIUM. — Unleashing a bewildering aerial attack in the waning moments of the game, after three times staving off a West Virginia threat within the shadow of its goal line, Howard University's gridiron eleven eked out a 6-0 victory over the yellow-jerseyed warriors of West Virginia State College here Saturday. The climax of the belated rally came middle way the fourth period as Joe Sewell, former Dunbar High School luminary, snared a 27 yard pass from Hall on the Virginians' 19-yard line and cleverly eluded a trio of tacklers for the lone touchdown of the battle. "Sally" Hall's try for the extra point via the placement kick route fell low. Sewell Scores Sewell's feat terminated a determined effort on the part of the Bisons to score and brought the 3,000 fans, including over 1,500 school children who were admitted free, to their feet in a vociferous uproar. The tally concluded the Howardites dazzling aerial attack which saw the Bisons complete eight out of eleven attempted passes, and completely reverse the order of play of the first half when Howard was constantly on the defense. Howard Line Holds Three times during the opening quarter, the "Men of the Mountains", largely through the sensational runs of Moore, State's elusive left halfback, penetrated deep into Howard's territory, and thrice the Bison's forward wall stiffened and held for downs at the crucible moment. Long before many of the fans had settled in their seats, Moore returned Howard's kick-off to the 42-yard line. On the very first play, West Virginia, fumbled and Howard recovered, but to no avail as two line thrusts failed to gain, and Hall punted out of danger. With Moore and E. Watson alternately carrying the pigskin, the West Virginians literally tore Howard's line to shreds for substantial gains, and two first downs. Field Goal Fails The Bison's line held when the Mountaineers reached the 33-yard mark and Watson booted out of bounds on Howard's two-yard line. A 15-yard penalty brought the oval out to Howard's own 17-yard line and Perry Howard fumbled on the next play. West Virginia recovered, but this time the Bison's line was prepared and halted every play directed at it. Phillips, State's fullback, attempted a field goal from Howard's 28-yard mark but the kick went wild. A few minutes later, West Virginia blocked Hall's punt and gained possession of the oval on the 20-yard strip. The Mountaineer tried three line stabs which failed, and an aerial was grounded. Once more Hall's toe put the Bison out of immediate danger. A series of end runs with Moore doing the work put the Mountaineers on Howard's 28-yard mark as the quarter ended. Mountaineers Threatened Bolden substituted for Chandler at end for Howard, and his speed under punts to some extent checked the sensational runbacks of Moore. Howard's offensive seemed unable to get a start as three spiner plays netted losses of four and five yards for the Bisons. The Mountaineers again threatened when Moore and Watson paired and carried the pigskin to Howard's 21-yard line from where Phillips again attempted to boot a field goal, the kick going wild. Perry Howard Injured Perry Howard Injured Howard's offense came to life in the second half, and after the Mountaineers had brought their total of first downs to seven, but had not seriously threatened during the period, Joe Sewell substi- THE BOWL HIAWATHA HARRIS, captain and left halfback of the Hampton Institute football team which meets Howard University at the Polo Grounds on November 12, to decide the championship of the Intercollegiate Athletic Association. tuted for Perry Howard, who left the field injured. On Sewell's first play, he plunged six yards through the West Virginians' line. An off-side penalty gave Howard its initial first down. Right here the Bisons opened up with an aerial attack which subsequently decided the game. Ware heaved a 20-yard pass to Hall to start the onslaught, as the third period ended. THE SPIKED SHOE By THE OBSERVER Negotiations have been started by the management of the Washington Pilots for the service of several additional ball players. Every Passes Successful The fourth quarter found the West Virginians on the defensive, an exact reversal of the earlier stages of the battle. A trio of passes, Ware to Hall, Hall to Ware, and Hall to Sewell placed the ball on the Mountaineer's three-yard strip. Two unsuccessful plunges by Sewell gave the West Virginians the ball, on the two foot line and Phillips punted from behind his own goal line. Hall returned the kick out to the 37-yard line, and after Ware lost 15 yards on an attempted pass, he completed a 26-heave he to Hall, followed by an 8-yard aerial to Sewell. Sewell Scores Another 15-yard loss was given Ware when he attempted to pass from the 40-yard line. Hall dropped back for a kick formation, but surprised the Mountaineers and hurled a 27-yard pass to Sewell who weaved and butted his way the remaining 20 yards for the only score of the game. A statistical summary gave both teams eight first downs each, and showed Howard completed 8 out of 11 passes for a gainage of 110 yards, while West Virginia completed only two gerials out of ten attempts for a gain of 10 yards. The West Virginians outgained the Bisons from scrimmage, gaining 138 yards to the Bisons' 69. Howard Position W. Virginia Josephus E. Glimnor Patton L.T. Glimnor Jarret L.G. Wares (Capt.)

Spikers are down to hard practice. The squand faces one of the hardest schedules ever. Games with the 135th Street "Y" of New York, Philadelphia "Y" and the Carlton Avenue "Y" of Brooklyn, stand out. Baltimore, Md., Wilmington, Del., Harrisburgh, Pa., Lancaster, Pa., and the Eager Street "Y" of Ashville, N.C., complete the schedule. The eight spikers cohorts already in action include Drs. Phil Johnson, Wm. H, Greene, George Adams, Slim Thomas, Everette Jeffries, Joseph Hall, London King, and Atty, Wm. Ransmoe. THE SPIKED SHOE BY THE OBSERVER Negotiations have been started by the management of the Washington Pilots for the service of several additional ball players. Every effort will be made to give local fans a first class club. Pilots owners are angling for the services of a catcher, an outstanding fielder and capable pitcher. Cumberland Posey, little Napoleon of baseball, has demonstrated his ability as a finder of new ball players. Posey went to Wilberforce university when he discovered in Terry, a grid player, the making of a high class diamond artist. Terry bids fair to become one of the great outfielders in the game. The mention of the name of Honas Wagner, the great Pittsburgh shortstop of other years, as possible manager of the Cincinnati Reds recalls to mind the fact that Wagner once managed a semi-pro club and had a colored pitcher on his staff who was a star. Benjamin Taylor, former player and manager with a number of clubs including the old Washington Potomac, will return to the game next year as manager of one of the leading clubs in the East. John Henry Lloyd will be at the helm of a club either in New York or Philadelphia. The Baltimore Black Sox will be reconstructed and operated under a new ownership if plans now under way materialize. "Dizzy" Dismukes while pitching for the West Baden club defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates in a regulation 9-inning game by the score of 2 to 1. The passing of Charlie Smith from baseball removes from the game one its greatest natural hitters. "Bizz" Raleigh Mackey, the greatest of all catchers, is now in the Orient with a barnstorming crew. Other players with the team are George Carr, Hallie Harding, Ross Evans, Baker, Cooper, Crespo, Manuel Rivero, half back at Columbia University who is playing third base with the team. Rivero was also a diamond star at Columbia. Branch Russel, outfielder during the last half of the season with the St. Louis Stars, is one of the hardest hitters in baseball. Milton, second baseman on the Wiley University baseball team, is touted as a comer by no less an authority than Oscar Charleston, first baseman and manager of the Pittsburgh Crawfords. Newly Formed Volley Ball Team Starts Practice With hopes of dethroning the Twelfth Street, Y.M.C.A. Spikers, the Stras, a newly organized group will meet Tuesday night for its first workout.

It appears that Verdell took an examination sometime ago and is rated No. 1 on a list of athletic directors in the District of Senior High Schools. At present Verdell has no intention of leaving Howard, but if he is appointed to the District position I am of the opinion that he will accept the job. The public school post carries a larger salary and is more certain than a teaching job. Verdell is not the only one on the hill who is seeking to secure themselves in Washington, so it's nothing new for one to seek a better and more lucrative position. The impression given was that Verdell was to be let out and Bill Bell, Ohio grid ace, put in command of the Bisons forces. HOWARD OUGHT TO BEAT UNION.

According to the dope Howard will face its toughest opposition Saturday when the Panthers of Union invade the territory of the Bisons. Incidentally yours truly has a tougher assignment in selecting the winner of this contest. For the last two consecutive weeks our predictions have panned out perfectly, but this week's affair is one that is hard to dope out as both teams are about even in the backfield and line. Morgan lambasted the Panther crew to a 24 to 0 decision last week, but in the meantime many weak spots of the Richmonders have been corrected. Although Howard has won every game this fall there are certain defects that need remedying. While watching Verdell and Bell polishing up the line and backfield this week I am of the opinion that many of these defects have been eliminated or substantially improved. This week I predict the third successive win for the Bisons, but don't bet on football games or horses.

State Upset Hampton,13-6 Steve Howe Stars As Virginia State Eleven Scores Brilliant Victory Over 1931 C.I.A.A. Champions PETERSBURG, Va.—Before a crowd of more than 3,000 enthuastic football fans, Virginia State College turned back its ancient foe, Hampton, 1931 C.I.A.A. champions, 13 to 6, on Rogers' Athletic Field, here last Saturday. Thus the Hilltopers toppled the fighting champions from their throne in a thoroughly convincing manner. The victors, however, did not have an easy time of it, for the Seasiders fought hard every inch of the way, three times halting Virginia State inside the 5-yard line when the Statesmen had first down and goal to gain. ing quarter for State, on a wide end sweep scored the first touchdown after three successive thrusts at the line by Bounds had failed. A pass from Bounds to Boyd added the extra point. State's second touchdown came in the third period, when Howe caught the Hampton secondary on guard and pulled the triple pass which thrilled the spectators and brought Virginia State another score. Standing on Hampton's 40-yard line Bounds heaved the oval 35 yards to the waiting arms of Solomon who raced the remaining 5 yards to score. Triple Pass Gains TAPE PASS GAMS There was too much drive in the Hilltoppers' power plays and too much deception in their aerial attack to be consistently denied, however, and the Statesmen counted once on a 3-yard end run sweep by Steve Howe, and again on a beautiful, deceptive triple pass for 35 yards which travelled from Howe to Bounds to Solomon. Hampton fought to the last ditch, and in the closing minutes of the game responding to the cheers of their supporters, Coch Gid Smith's men put on a wonderful exhibition of line' playing, passing, and sweeping end runs to march steadily down the field from their own 20-yard line to score. Hampton Scores It was a mighty fighting Hampton machine that pushed the heavier but tiring Hilltopppers eighty yards backwards, making five first downs in their march. "Hi!" Harris and Edwards, aided by two beautiful passes which accounted for nine yards each, lugged the ball up to State's 10-yard line, and "Cutie" Carter carried it over for the lone touchdown on a fake line plunge that completely fooled the whole State team. Beam failed in an attempted place kick for the extra point. Except for this last drive the Statesmen stopped the Hampton power plays before they got started. Time and again the Hilltop forwards broke through to nab the ball carrier in his tracks. Poor passing from center and butterfingered juggling of the ball on the part of Hampton's backs counted heavily against them. Fine kicking by "Steve" Howe gave Virginia State another defensive weapon which was used to great advantage throughout the game. His long distance punts, which were amply high to permit state's speedy ends to get down the field, kept the ball in Hampton's territory nine-tenths of the game. In contrast to Howe's fine exhibition, poor kicking on the part of Hi" Harris and Hooker kept Hampton in trouble most of the time. On each exchange of punts Virginia State gained substantial- The Hampton line always stiffened, however, when their goal was threatened, and, although constantly in danger, they succeeded in holding the Martinman in check for the first period and the major portion of the second.

Saturday morning, ended in a draw, with the freshmen winning the shuttle relay, and three boxing ends in in draws, sophomores winning the pi rush and flag rush, and freshmen capturing the tug-o-war. In the relay, Eldridge, of Alexander Hamilton High School, of Brooklyn, N.Y.; McCoy, of New Haven High School; Herndon, of the Denver High School; and Miller, of Dunbar High School, Washington, D.C., composed the successful team. In the boxing events Lewis Aiken, sophomore, of Brooklyn, N.Y., graduate of the high school at Troy, N.Y., gave the decision in the lightweight match, the middleweight ending in a draw with Stanley Palmer, of St. John's College, B.W.I., winning the heavyweight match for the freshmen. Althoughh the freshmen captured the flag, they were unable to pull down the pole which was defended by sophomores, giving the sophomores the decision in this event. The first year class, however, reaped sweet revenge in the tug-o-war when the sophomores were drenched in the stream of water that marked the dividing POETSOVERPOWER MANASSAS, 20-6 POETSOVERPOWER MANASSAS, 20-6 Red And Black Squad Shows Improvements In Scoring Victory Friday Showing marked improvement over its playing in the season's opener the previous week, a much heavier Dunbar eleven overpowered.the Green Jerseyed team from Manassas Industrial Institute, of Manassas, Va., at Walker Stadium Friday. The score was 20-6. Coch Charlie Pindernughes sent his second-stringers into the fray at the start, but after the substitutes had failed to gain any material yardage against the Manassas team, and appeared in a dangerous position, the veteran Poet mentor inserted his "Shock Troops" The Regulars, with "Juggy" Matthews on the throwing end and Rob Williams doing the receiving opened an aerial attack which immediately netted a touchdown, Williams scoring. Matthews booted the extra point from placement. Dunbar's substitutes, having been reinserted into the battle, carried the ball deep into Manassas territory early in the third period, but lost possession of the oval when a Manassas back intercepted a pass and ran for a score, only to be called back on a ruling. Following this play the Virginians started a drive which seemed dangerous for the Poets. However, the "Shock Troops" again took command, starting a steady march in midfield which terminated as Green, big Poet halfback, plunged over from the 4-yard line. Matthews' try for the extra tally went wide. The Poets' last score was the result of charity. Manassas fumbled the kick-off on its 12-yard line, and Dunbark recovered. In two plays, Martin Pree, 140-pound Poet back, zig-zagged his way through the line for a touchdown. An aerial, Matthews to Green, accounted for the twentieth point. A determined effort to score ended successfully for Manassas a few moments later. Two long passes placed the pigskin on the 8-yard line, and a penalty against Dunbark for holding carried the ball to the 1-yard line. It looked as if fate was against the Green Jerseyed lads as another penalty put the oval five yards back. Dayde crashed across the last line after two attempts. After the next kick-off the teams battled in mid-field. DUNBAR MANASSAS Chiek L.E W. Hall Beckwith H. W. Hall Akinson L.G. Tibba Duval Center M. Fields Hamilton R.G.

MYER, Va.—Out-passing, out-running and out-punting their foe, the Roamers of Alexander, trounced the 10th Cavalry of Fort Myer, Sunday by 20-6 score. The Army boys out-weighted the Roamers on the average of fifteen pounds a man, but behind the leadership of "Big Boy" Scott, the Roamers showed superiority in all departments over the Army boys. The backfield consisting of Capt. Scott, Thompson, Taylor, Fergerson and Brown, played well together for their first game, although the wet condition of the field kept their speed down. In the line, Pen Addison (135-lb guard), Stillard, Stokes, Tyler, Porter, Clark, Johnson, W. Jackson, Brooks, E. Jackson, Lewis, Evans, Carter and Hill played exceptionally well under such heavy odds. Captain "Big Boy" Scott scored two touchdowns, and "Dumpy" Thompson, one, and the extra points were taken care of by "Dumpy" Thompson. Fort Myer scored their goal by a fumble after punt which one of her players kicked behind the goal and fell on for a touchdown which was allowed by the white officials.

Despite their victory, the Wolverine, greatly handicapped by adverse weather conditions, failed to show their usual speed and power, while the Tigers proved a continuously dangerous threat with their strong passing attack. Morris Brown made her lone score in the second period when a Tiger punt blocked on the 20-yard line, rolled over the goal and was covered by Spurlock for the score. D. Smith's attempted drop kick was a failure. Edward Waters scored a safety on a similar play in the fourth period when D.

'BIG TANK' CONRAD BAFFLES PANTHERS Morgan Romps to Easy Win Over Union by Score Of 24 to 0 BALTIMORE, Md.-The Union Panthers took it on the chin from Coach Hurst's "Bears" on Morgan Athletic field, on Saturday, amid the cheers of 500 anxious fans. The score was 24-0. The fighting blood of the "Panthers" was coiled after the first six minutes of play as "Tank" Conrad, following a series of line plunges, ripped off 20 yards into Union territory for the initial score. Sturgis' attempt for the extra point by a kick from placement went wide of the posts. Sturgis stopped the rampage of Gill on Union's 40-yard line following the kick-off. Troupe received a Union punt on Morgan's 30-yard line after which Troupe and Sturgis ripped off short gains on line plunges. A 40-yard end run by Conrad followed by an 8-yard gain on a line plunge by Wilson brought the Bears to Union's 1-yard line, after which Conrad plunged for the second touchdown of the game. A try for the extra point, via the forward pass route failed. Taylor netted o 25-yard run for the Panthers, following the kick-off and the quarter closed with a fumble by the Panthers on their own 32-yard line. Conrad Crashes Again Conrad Crases Again Off tackle runs by Sturgis, Conrad and Wilson gained three successive first downs for the Bears and placed them on the Panthers' 1-yard line. On the next play Conrad plunged for the third six-point marker of the game. Sturgis' try for the extra point by a kick from placement was blocked. Sturgis intercepted a Union pass and ran for a 2-yard gain. The half ended with the count 18-0. The Panthers returned determined to break through the Bears' defense, but were repelled by an impregnable wall. Conrad received a Union punt and galloped for a 35-yard gain from Morgan's 25-yard line to Union's 40. Troupe gained 9 yards on an old run. Wilson followed with an off tackle run of 20 yards. Galloway replaced Rosedom. Gill made short gains on line plunges. A fumble forced Union to punt which we covered by Gibson. Wilson again brings the Bears to Union's 14-yard line by a 20-yard run around right end. Troupe plunged for the next six-pointer of the game. A try for the extra point by a line plunge failed. Allen replaced Taylor at right end for Union and Buns replaced Burkett at right tack for Morgan. Steward rang up short gains for the Panthers by line plunges. Following several Morgan and Union substitutions the Bears received a Union punt on Morgan's 25-yard line closing the quarter. Pass Attack Fails Pass Attack Fails The final quarter was marked by runs of 15 to 25 yards by Gibbs and Wilson, and a 15-yard run by Yancey, receiving a Union pass. Troupe intercepted a Union for ward pass. Williams received a pass from Yancey for a 9-yard Union gain. Following excellent defense work by the Bears and a 25-yard off tackle run by Conrad, Williams was replaced at tackle by Thompson. A Morgan pass intercepted by Taylor netted a 20-yard gain for the Panthers. On the next play Wilson intercepted a pass from Yancey on Morgan's 20-yard line ending the game with score still standing 24-0. For the Panthers, Allen, Yancey, Gill and Wilson starred on the defensive, while Stewart, Lathan al Davis gained the limelight for defensive work. Morgan will play a tough game next Saturday when they meet Lincoln's fighting eleven in Baltimore. Jack Dempsey Principal At Nelson Dinner PHILADELPHIA, Pa. (CNS)—Jack Dempsey, former heavyweight champion of the world, was the principal speaker at a testimonial stag dinner in honor of Robert J.

A man who in his quiet, efficient way is doing a great deal to bring back boxing to its old status in Pennsylvania." The toast master was John L. Clarke, president of the A.A.U. Among the distinguished guests present were Richard Beismish, secretary of the Commonwealth; David J. Davis, adjutant general; Dr. A. M. Northrup, secretary of Labor and Industry; Warren W.

Irene Dunne, who plays the leading feminine role, is altogether delightful as the spirited young girl who finds true love when she least expected it, and gives us everything else in life to follow the dictates of her heart. That her lover is a married man cannot prevent an affair which continues over a span of twenty years, because it is vital, fundamental, soul-stirring. The principal male part is played by John Boles, whose fame as a singer has given way to an established reputation as an actor of unusual depth of feeling. The sincerity of Boles and Miss Dunne THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1932 make what might have been a tawdry affair a thing of transcendent tenderness, in which the principals at all times hold the sympathy of the audience. June Clyde, William Bakewell, Arletta Duncan, Doris Lloyd, George Meeker, Walter Catlett, Paul Weigel, Jane Darewell and others do sterling work in "Back Street," and round out a cast of players of unusual excellence. HOWARD THEATRE INAUGURATES NEW PRICE POLICY Beginning Friday the Howard Theatre will present for the first time in this city "Rhythm Madness." Bennie Carter and his band, heading his own colossal revue of fifty widely k: wn entertainers "Rhythm Madness," earned a reputation during its New York run for its originality, snappy and melodious musical numbers, plentifully sprinkled with sprightly comedy and dazzling dance innovations. Bennie Carter and his band promise to prove one of the Howard's most substantial hits. On the screen, "The Phantom of Crestwood," Radio Pictures special broadcast will be shown. Millions have heard the story over the radio and will be eager to know who killed Wrenn. The cast is especially notable, starring Ricardo Cortez, Karen Mozley, Anita, Louise, Pauline Frederick, H. B. Warner, and Skeets Gallagher. Midnight shows are announced for Friday and Tuesday. Beginning today (Friday), the Howard inaugurates a new price policy. The show opens at 12 noon and the admission from 12 to 1:30 p.m. will be 25 cents downstairs, 15 cents upstairs, and 10 cents for children each day except, Sundays. COHAN, COLBERT, DURANTE IN "THE PHANTOM PRES." George M. Cohan is making his local debut as a talking picture actor at the Republic Theatre, Sunday to Tuesday, October 23-25, in a political comedy called "The Phantom President," and he proves that he is just as ingratiating, breezy and zestful on the screen as he has ever been in his multidinous stage roles. Cohan does not stand alone, however, in making "The Phantom President" the outstanding picture that it is. After all, he has a corking good story to work with. And after all, both Claudette Colbert and Jimmy Durante are featured along with him. As a matter of fact, Durante, who many consider one of the funniest men in pictures, is up to his old tricks of stealing almost every scene in which he appears. The film is robust comedy, turning the full force of its barbed humor on the campaign leading up to the Presidential election. Some of the scenes showing the candi- DUNBAR Seventh & T Sts.

Toward the close, however, the film turns melodramatic, and political bosses and crooked politicians are put in their places as never before. But the transition is a natural one, and the story is as diverting in its exciting finish as in its amusing beginning. NEIGHBORS' LIES ENDANGER LIFE OF ACCUSED MAN Friends Turn Enemies To Shield Selves in "The Night of June 13," Coming to the Lincoln Theatre. "The Night of June 13," a drama set in the suburb of a large eastern city, and featuring Clive Brook; Lila Lee, Charlie Ruggles, Gene Raymond, Frances Dee, Mary Boland, and Adrienne Allen, opens Friday at the Lincoln Theatre. The story deals with the manner in which the lives of four families, living in adjacent houses on a suburban street, are tangled together. Brook is in the role of a young husband whose wife, Miss Allen, is hysterically jealous of him. When she suspects him of an affair with Miss Lee, their next door neighbor, she commits suicide. Brook discovers her body, and beside it a note in which she accuses Miss Lee of having been responsible for her act. To protect the girl, Brook destroys the note. The result is that authorities charge him with murder. At the trial, each of the neighbors, to cover up some petty deficiency of his own, testifies damagingly against Brook. Miss Lee has disappeared meanwhile, and knows nothing of the happenings. Ultimately, in a dramatic climax, the truth comes out, and Brook, in the very shadow of the gallows, is freed. Whether you are a football or contract fan, you can't afford to miss seeing "The All-American." the thrilling Universal football drama which comes to the Lincoln Theatre next Wednesday. This tremendously interesting picture presents more than a score of famous football stars in hard-fought games on the gridiron, including the 1931 All American team, but it also tells a swift-moving love story which is filled with dramatic incidents and novel situations. Among the football heroes seen in action in "The All-American" are "Red Cagle (Army), Ernie Nevers (Stanford), Albie Booth (Yale), Marchy Schwartz (Notre Dame), Jerry Dalyple (Tulane), Gaius Shaver (Southern California), Frank Carideo (Notre Dame) and many others whose names are household words. The acting cast of "The All-American" is headed by Richard Arlen, and also includes Andy Devine, Gloria Stuart, Preston Foster, John Darrow, June Clyde and James Gleason, There are sixty-six name roles. The picture was directed by Russell Mack. Just whisper scandal, the echo is heard by all. STRAND Blocks from Suburban Gardens DEANWOOD, D.C. Latest All-Talking Pictures C. J. CLARKE, Mgr.

"Guilty As Hell" At The Broadway Theatre "Guilty as Hell," a murder force starring Edmund Lowe and Victor McLaglen, comes to the Broadway Sunday. "Guilty as Hell," a screen adaptation of Daniel N. Rubin's successful stage play, makes sport of the conventional murder "thriller" by developing its story along comedy lines, rather than on serious lines. At the opening of the picture the audience sees a murder committed. But Lowe, a police reporter, and McLaglen, a detective-arrive on the scene later, and it takes them plenty of time, during which they blunder through many amusing incidents, for them to find out what the audience already knows.

The "forgotten m_n" may be $b_4$ a trite slogan, felicitously employed at this season of American life, but every Negro in America feels its import. It is more than rhetoric with him; it is sober realism. Whatever else may be urged as the qualifications of men in strategic positions, the age needs the man with the tender heart—the true democrat who can feel the throbs of aspiration beating in the "forgotten man's" heart. The tongue needs a temporary furlough, to give the heart a chance to function for mankind. In fact, all that any country professing Christianity needs, as the basis of its vaunted democracy, is the man of dynamic personality, who will make Christianity fashionable. If I interpret right the attractive doctrine of such religion, it is "brotherhood." Now I am not insisting that Franklin D. Roosevelt, in four or even eight years, is going to assume Hamlet's role of setting the world right; but I do contend, with abiding faith in my good friend's integrity, humanitarianism, and democracy, that his broad heart will go out to all elements of this heterogeneous population. All fears, if any exist, concerning the lodgment of Franklin D. Roosevelt's heart in the wrong place, shouldy be quelled. As a plain, obseure, but hopeful citizen, I visualize the greatest need of my race as not being restricted to office holding, or perchance to posing with Presidents. Painful experience and keen observation have taught me that there are two races in America—the human race and the Negro race. My most sanguine hope is that some head of the Nation may see fit to give a helping hand to the elevation of my race from its present category to that of the human race, so that dumb animals may not have precedence in humane treatment. If such a change is ever to be initiated, Franklin D. Roosevelt is a most competent person to be entrusted with the machinery. Some of my good friends, in discussion casually the ensuing election, have expressed a fear of the "calamity" that would result to the Negro race if Mr. Roosevelt's health, in case of his election, became impaired and the reins of administration were turned over to Mr. Garner, whom they picture as a bitter foe to the Negro race. I am not acquainted with the case against Mr. Garner. His vote against the Dyer bill does not necessarily list him as a friend of lynching. The bill had, perhaps, more soothing balm in it for the colored constituents of its author than it had feasibility of operation—not unlike a certain law about which we have read so much. Voting against it, in some instances, must have been indeed by the thought of its impracticality. I know not what Mr. Garner' CHESTNU Specia NUT FAIR ial M A VERY Va A "SPECIAL" VALUE, because it's produced by tuberculin-tested herds inspected regularly by the District Health Department.

D. ROOSEVELT (Continued from page 1) cracy, proved to be one of the most affable fellows in the class to approach. His genial disposition, unaffected courtesy, and kindly smile tempted an acquaintance that ripened as the years, in college grew. In his general attitude to all his classmates there was a manifestation of the true democratic spirit, which has since made him a veritable idol of the voters, His warm interest in his fellow man is no newly-acquired trait. It is genuine, and it antedates the holding of any public office by him. He has one of the warmest hearts of any man whom I have ever known, and my experiences have been most varied; for I have associated on very close terms with the sons of bankers and the sons of junk collectors, with the bluest blood of New England and with the poorest blood of immigrants, with the most highly educated and with the most grossly ignorant—in short, with various extremes. I read, back in those college days, in Franklin D. Roosevelt a philanthropic nature which was responsive to his classmates, regardless of their financial potentialities, or their religion, or their color. If there has been any change in his nature, since graduation, it has been in the development of even a broader sympathy. I advised him once that he was "Frank by name and franker by nature." never realizing at the time that I would ever take such pleasure in quoting myself. Met Roosevelt Later After our college days ended, we met occasionally at Harvard affairs—class reunions, spreads in the college yard, and the Yale-Harvard football games. When the Wilson administration brought him to Washington, as Assistant Secretary of the Navy, I rejoiced, for I knew that I would have a good constant friend within walking distance of my residence; and Washington is a city where a fellow frequently needs a friend. My present interest in Franklin D. Roosevelt's career is by no means sudden. Our correspondence will show that even before he became Governor of New York, I was predicting that he was destined to return to Washington. When he became the running mate of Governor Cox, I was enthusiastic over his aspiration, though I feared that he might become bottled up in the Vice-Presidency. A letter from him, under date of July 30, 1920, expressed a desire that I meet Governor Cox. I cite this, only to show that my interest has not just taken root. For the past ten or twelve years, I have talked the White House in the highest general rating of Washington's five largest dairies. A "Special" Value . . . because, beginning this week, all Chestnut Farms bottles, whether milk, cream or buttermilk in quarts, pints or half-pints, will be covered with Seal-Kaps-assuring complete protection of the pouring lip from dust, dirt and exposure. By actual reason was. It is true that Franklin D. Roosevelt had an attack of infantile paralysis, some years ago; but his good fighting qualities overcame the attack. He is virtually cured, though he still uses a cane. Nothing in the attack has prevented him from performing his duties, as Governor of the State of New York. Strangely, enough, colored people's first thought on most matters of moment usually runs to the possibilities of calamities, rather than to the hopes of cheerful outcomes. Perhaps their repeated disappointments have developed such a complex. From the time a Negro baby is born until his death, he is schooled in Judgment Day lore and prepared to enter the "Pearly Gates" of heaven. The vital problems of the day are too frequently passed up for the all-asorbing thoughts of that final day. Perhaps it is this constant pointing towards death that makes the colored business man more successful as an undertaker than as a banker, or operator of an insurance company. The tax on the strength of a President of the United States is unquestioned, but the record of presidential tenure is most favorable. Let us all hope that the steady climb up the political ladder by Franklin D. Roosevelt will not terminate in any impairment of his health, but rather let us look forward to eight years of Rooseveltism in the White House—the synonym of robust manhood, progressive administration, and energetic statesmanship—unmindful of his cane, which is but a symbol of the past. I have no desire to disturb the political faith of a soul, or to do violence to the shades of the beloved Lincoln. Like most Negroes born in the Nineteenth century, I came into the world a Republican and a Baptist. I was not consulted before my birth regarding my political or religious affiliations, but neither label has stood in my way of being a reputable citizen or a faithful Christian; so I have not seen fit to renounce either affiliation. I merely vote for men and measures that I feel merit my vote, and I feel as comfortable in one church as in another, if arrant hypocrisy has no lodgment therein. I write not as a politician, but as a friend of one of the candidates, about whom I can spread the comforting word that he is "True Blue." He knows nothing of my aim to set attractive qualities before the public. I am certain, however, that if it were a question of my welfare, his pen would not lie if there were need of a favoring word. His past benefactions merit this acknowledgment and sincere desire to befriend him. G. DAVID HOUSTON, 1758 T Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 105 Inman Street Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Dairy THAN 32 YEARS THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1932 ARNOLD ANSWERS PERRY HOWARD ON REPUBLICANISM Tells Howard That Garner's Act Was At Least Humanitarian Howard's Letter Mr. Edward F. Arnold, Musolit Club, 1327 R St. N. W. Washington, D. C. Dear Judge Arnold: You assured a group of us in the Club that upon receipt of pamphlets from here which gave you conclusive proof that Garner did attempt to repeal provisions for Negro cavalry and infantry, you would go back to New Jersey, trace your speeches and vote the Democratic ticket. You will find a copy of each pamphlet enclosed and you will find the matter referred to under the head. "The Story of Roosevelt and Garner as it affects the Negro" at page 7. I am going to ask you to be generous enough to pass this around among your's and my pals. Your friend, Perry W. Howard Hon. Perry W. Howard, Arnold's Letter Republican National Committee Palmer House, Chicago, Ill. Dear Colonel Perry: Your letter with two pamphlet enclosures, "The Negro and the Republican Party" and the "Story of Roosevelt and Garner as it Affects the Negro" has been received. You are in error in saying, I assured a group in the club, upon conclusive proof that Garner did attempt to repeal provisions for Negro Cavalry and Infantry that I would go back to New Jersey, retrace my speeches, and vote against the Democratic ticket. What I did say was—that if you produced conclusive proof that Garner attempted to repeal provisions for Negro soldiers I saw nothing for the race to do but to look to the Socialist party for salvation. But as I see it now, there is an ever increasing number in our group who want to see an end to the present administration. The Socialist party even with our aid is not strong enough to bring about this much desired effect. Our condition is so impending, so intolerable that it behooves us to get in touch with the Democratic party which has the best chance to turn the trick.

Garner in the first session of the 62nd Congress introduced a bill to repeal Sections 1104 and 1108 of the revised statutes of the U. S. As these sections provided that two regiments of Cavalry and two regiments of Infantry shall be Colored men, had this bill passed, the Colored soldiers would also have passed out of the U. S. Army. So anxious were you in getting the old record of the Democratic party as it pertained to our soldiers you overlooked the latest record of the Republican party in dealing with these very same soldiers. Garner Saves Humiliation In speaking of the Ninth and Tenth Calvaries and the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth Infantries your pamphlet says—"Their story is a brilliant chapter in the history of American prowess." What did the Hoovercrates of the Republican administration do to that brilliant chapter? They tore it from the pages of history, and ruthlessly scattered those proud soldiers to the stables and garages of the U. S. Army. There to take care of the horses and automobiles of their so-called superior officers. Of the two evils, I prefer the Garner method of doing away with our soldiers. It would at least saved them from shame and humiliation. The poor Negro, standing waist deep in mud and mire, is threatened with even greater disaster if he dare attempts to take himself out by the wav of the Democratic party. The old cry of "Wolf" is raised—Remember Jack Garner is from Texas and Roosevelt wrote the Haitian Constitution. This reminds me of a saving I read recently—"When a child is sleeping on the floor, you can't scare him about falling out of bed." One does not have to make out a case against the Republican party, the evidence is too overwhelming. The nature of this evidence nobody is more familiar with than you are. Howard's Fidelity Despite it all you seem to still have faith in the Republican party that a Christian has in his God. You seem to be persuaded, that neither death nor life, nor principalities, nor power, nor things present nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature shall be able to separate you from the Republican party. After all is said and done, there must be something to be admired in such simple faith. In closing you say—"I am going to ask you to be generous enough to pass this around among yours and my pals." I am not only going to be generous to pass it around among your and my friends in the club, but I am going to be generous enough to send it out to the newspapers along with my reply, so that your friends and my friends all over the country may read it.

Wilberforce-Kentucky State In Scoreless Tie FRANKLIN, Ky. — It was a thrilling encounter that Coach Graves' Bull Dogs fought through last Saturday with the Kentuckians. When the smoke of battle had cleared away at Kentucky State College, the score stood 0 to 0. The toe of Ralph Scurry saved the day for Wilberforce. Cy Robinson, Force end, played one of the greatest games in his career as an end. Scurry kicked 50 to 60 yards. His passing was great. Garr, of Kentucky State was truly the greatest runner on the field. He was the only man able to gain through the Wilberforce team. He did all of Kentucky's passing and kicking. 5 BIRMINGHAM, Ala.—A safety in the first five minutes, Severn Prazier's 82-yard return of a punt for a touchdown in the final minute of their quarter, and a physical attack upon Headlineman Knox by Ralph Robinson, Clark's inteligible center, and Donald Reeves, Clark end, featured the game here today in which the Abaam State Teachers' College Hornets gained a victory margin of 8-0, in their opening conference game with the Clark University Panthers and enabled them again to eliminate Clark from the race for conference honors.

School Unveils Striking Portrait Of Lincoln LOUISVILLE, Ky. (CNS)—An oil painting of Abraham Lincoln, by a Louisville artist was unveiled here at Lincoln Institute last week. The painting which was placed in the tower room of the administration building of the school dramatizes both the Emanepator and the work of the school. The painting is so placed that it is one of the first sights to greet the visitor. Lincoln is shown five feet tall, lifelike, ruggedly against a rough brick wall, seated at a table with two of his books close at hand. Extolting the virtues of the man shown in the painting, Dr. Raymond A. Kent, president of the University of Louisville, said: "He knew poverty as few living in Kentucky know it. His home had fewer comforts than you have in yours. When he went to the Illinois Legislature he had read fewer books than you have read." Continuing he said, "It was the plain virtues that made him great virtues without which nothing abides. Persistence, courage, honesty, patience and kindness—these traits, possessed by anyone, make a great man. I commend him to you as a man who may be copied." Held On Rum Charge Cora Milton pleaded not guilty when arraigned before Judge John P. McMahon on a charge of possession of intoxicating liquor in Police Court. Monday. The woman who appeared in court with her two-year-old child was held under $500 bond. ADMITTED TO THE BAR [Name] ATTY. CHAS.

Ulysses appears before the Maidens. The first meeting of the parent-teacher association was held Wednesday evening with an attendance of over 230 people. Several important activities - were mapped out for the ensuing year. The musical numbers on the program were rendered by the Boys' Glee Club, which has been recently organized under the direction of Levington E. Smith, instructor in music. A demonstration of orchestral instruments was arranged by F. F. Weir and T. D. Streep, looking forward to the organization of a school band or orchestra. The principal in a brief address, pointed out four important objectives for the year: namely, to see that no child of the school suffers this year for want of food or clothes; to see that every child this year has a chance for one hour's uninterrupted study at home; to see that every child has an opportunity to engage in some worthwhile activity during his leisure time; and finally to request the establishment of a community center at this school to further these ends. Officers of the parent-teacher association for the current year are Mrs. Grace Humes, president; Mr. J. F. N. Wilkinson, vice-president; Mrs. Mary Proctor, secretary; Miss E. R. Clarke, treasurer; and Mrs. F. L. Toms, chairman of the school committee. Suggestions Married women wear wedding rings. Why don't married men wear something to distinguish them from single men?

WEWOULD APPRECIATE A SAMPLE OF HOOVER'S "ENFORCEMENT UPHOLDING THE SACRED CONSTITUTION OF THESE UNITED STATES" Flaring headlines of the leading papers of the country carried such phrases as "Posse Slays Five in Hunt For Killer," "Mississippi Family Wiped Out On Suspicion of Shielding Assassin of Deputy," the first part of this week. Negro papers need make no comment on this dastardly action. We know the singe of the torch and the strangle of the rope, we impatiently wait for God or Justice to release us from this bondage of the mob. We cite the story here as carried in the white press: "Mowed down by the gunfire of a posse seeking the Negro slayer of Deputy Sheriff Walker Williams, 22-year-old son of Sheriff C. A. Williams, of Senatobia, a family of five Negroes was wiped out six miles south of here early today. "Led by the father of the slain deputy, the hastily-formed posse off 75 armed and deputized citizens went to the home of Judge Crawford, Negro farmer, where Jesse Williams, the Negro slayer, was reported hiding. under the barrage of pistol and rifle fire. "Williams, the Negro slayer, was not found in the residence. "The posse today continued to sweep the swamp country in search of the fleeing slayer. "Feeling was running high and authorities feared the Negro might be lynched if captured. "Young Williams was slain by the Negro when he sought him for questioning yesterday afternoon. The Negro grappled with the deputy, wrested his gun from his grasp "Crawford was a relative of the Negro who yesterday shot and killed the young deputy. "Crawford, answering the posse's peremptory summons, refused to admit the men, opening fire with a pistol, members of the posse said. "Max Lloyd, a deputy, was struck in the head by a bullet from the Negro's gun and fell. "The posse returned the fire, riddling the frame farm dwelling.

President Hoover deliberately places property rights above human rights. Yet he would have you believe that he is a great humanitarian. His philosophy as demonstrated by his actions since March 4, 1929, has been that to benefit all the people you must make the rich richer, and let prosperity drivel down from them to the average citizen. He demonstrated this when he asked for the establishment of the Refinance Corporation with $2,000,000,000 to be distributed to the rich and mighty. At the same time he refused to pay the soldiers' bonus and flatly refused to help the poor and needy in any shape or form. He openly stated that Charity would care for them, refusing to render any governmental aid whatever. In his speech at Cleveland last Saturday night, President Herbert Hoover as candidate Hoover, said: "There should be no fear or apprehension at any deserving American fireside that starvation or cold will creep within their doors to menace families and loved ones over the forthcoming Winter." Just before he delivered that statement, the Board of Welfare of the District of Columbia, Candidate Hoover's present home, asked the Commissioners for funds to care for more than 4,200 families in Washington, the Nation's Capital. The District Commissioners are quoted as saying that it will take a million dollars to care for these people here this winter, over and above the service the Community Chest shall render others in need. The Chest is preparing for its drive next month and will ask for the largest amount in its history. The Commissioners also state that all the surplus money to their credit has been used up and that the present emergency fund will last until November 15. Congress will not meet until December 6, and they cannot hope to obtain Congressional relief before December 23. What will these people do for the six weeks intervening, notwithstanding the President's statement? This is only one city in the U.S. Mr. Hoover's statement covered the United States. New York City has more than 4 million hungry people who are in dire straights. How can any man occupying the high office of President, make such a loose statement as President Hoover made in Cleveland regarding people starving in this country? And how does President Hoover expect the wolf to be kept away from the millions of doors of the unemployed and hungry American citizens? He is absolutely against government aid and says that volunteer contributions will care for these folks. All surplus money has been used by states and municipalities and nearly all of the volunteer subscribers have exhausted their charity funds. Then, what will President Hoover do? He says there should be no fear of starvation this winter. It is not a future possibility. It is a present fact. It is of such importance that the report to the Commissioners predict actual death here in Washington, from starvation. The Welfare Board is dealing with living facts not beautiful words as used by the President. Herbert Hoover's term in office has been as black a failure in most every other phase of the nation's business as is his "Human rights" record. People are starving and he says there should be no fear. He had 20,000 veterans here asking him for bread and your President drove them out of Washington with gas, tanks, fire and sabers. They should have no fear of starvation. How can a President of the United States be such an open hypoerite? No matter how well you are living, how important your position or work in life may be or how much pleasure you seem to have there is alwas room for improvement. A man's personality, the appearance of his business and the methods he adopts to run his place of business has everything to do with his success or failure. A man or woman should never let their first outstanding achievement, or in fact any achievement swell his or her head. Men and women who have stood out as leaders did not stop with one achievement and start boasting. They kept digging away. Every woman likes admiration even though it is only lip service from a professional datterer.

MITCHELL SUBMITTING THE PROOF In my release that appeared last week concerning the advisability of waging a campaign to place a Negro paper in every home in America, I mentioned, indirectly, the benefits that I had personally secured by sending, with my compliments, Negro publications to influential members of the white race who, otherwise, were not in the habit of following our press each week. Since I wrote and mailed the release referred to I have received a letter from one of the many persons whom I had in mind, one paragraph of which I shall quote: "... A man who has been confined in prison for the number of years you have and who takes advantage of the situation in the spirit you have accepted your confinement, and in that time keeps clean and devotes the time to regaining one's own self-respect and the respect of others, deserves recognition from those outside and only a kinder feeling. . ." Many years ago the man whom I have quoted was the business manager of a department that employed thousands of men, of whom I was one. Unfortunately, I did not make the best of my opportunities and I rapidly slid down hill. Eventually, I was at the bottom of the social scale—in prison, and the man, Frank D. Fitzgerald, became secretary of State, in Michigan, the office he now holds and for which he is seeking re-election (November 8) on the Republican ticket. OTHER PAPERS SAY: Three More Negro Papers Join Roosevelt The Louisville Leader, the Birmingham Reporter and the Palmetto Leader, all papers printed in the South are all against Hoover. The following editors are clipped from their issues of October 15. The Louisville News says: "We must weigh carefully the qualifications of the candidates—the records of the men and of their parties, their positions toward the issues of the day, and the principles and philosophy of government which they profess to follow. "We need to know by what principles and beliefs men and parties set their course; for, while events change and new situations arise, principles endure. We hear much of state sovereignty, of the encroachments of the Federal Government and of centralized bureaucracy, the tarif policy toward foreign nations, etc, but what about the attitude of the present administration toward the Negro? Has it kept faith with the Negro, or even made any attempt to do so? Has it not insulted the intelligence of the Negro? Has it not betrayed the Negro's faithfulness and loyalty to the Republican party? Every four years we hear the noble principles of the Republican party expounded, and just as often, almost without exception, we see them flagrantly and consistently violated in practice, and in addition to this, Negroes are invariably left with a lot of empty promises. Will the Negro continue to be fooled—the real Negro, the intelligent Negro, the Negro who puts love of Race and Country above party? We doubt it!" The Birmingham Reporter has this to say about the group who visited the President: "MEMORIALIZING THE PRESIDENT" "Opinions vary on the Roscoe Simmons-L. K. Williams-DePriest monkey shines on the White House lawn on that eventful day of memorializing the President. "The effect of it on the voting public is, perhaps, all that is looked for, but just whether it is positive or negative there is an important question. The personnel of the group looks very much like the same blow-hot and blow-cold tribe that inhabits political areas near campaign time. It seems that among them may be recognized: the links between the G.O.P. treasury and the Negro of the Republican Party and this revamped side organization is attacking in new formation to disguise the identity of some of its members and get accrediment with both the public and the party leaders. "Mr. Hoover is about as certain of the Negro vote this year as in any preceding campaign and he knows both the movement to call this assemblage, the means of getting it herded and the price at which to bid for it. "At campaign times, a candidate never wishes to take any default risks, and, for that reason they have an open and sympathetic ear and mostly fervent expression in answer to anything that looks like a favorable push. "But the funny thing is going on in the sleeve of both the candidate and the tribes. They think they are fooling each other. The tribes cares beyond their personal receipts not enough about the out **** I felt too ashamed to contact those who personally knew my many weaknesses but when I attempted my "come-back" through the Negro press I did want my former acquaintances to follow me and to realize that I was sincere and conscientious in my efforts. Therefore, I had Negro publications, to which I contributed, sent to these influential persons, at my own expense, with the result that the very persons who had the most reason to despise me are among my greatest boosters and the good-will value of this contact is price-less. The circumstances in this particular case of Mr. Fitzgerald are cited purely as a clinches to my argument of last week, coming as it does within just a few days after the release was written, and convincingly proving the personal benefits that I have gained merely by having our papers read by responsible members of the other race. ***** This should leave no doubt then of the unlimited gain that can be achieved by the entire race if the right sort of campaign is waged to place a Negro paper in every home in America. And if I were free to accept it, I would want no better job, on a commission basis, than the one of contacting and interesting white readers in our own race publications. The opportunity is there for others, however, and should be wisely acted upon. Again, I repeat: "A Negro Paper in Every Home in America." come of the election to give a 'happy' after they are paid off, and the party cares just enough about the influence of the tribe to bid it in at the lowest figure and forget the price of it. "We have read the reports on Simmons' speech in an effort to discover what he really said or what impression they are trying to make on the public or the Party, or, what, besides making the impression that the the Negro vote was waiting on a silver platter, was the motivating objective. "The pity of it is that the agencies of contact between the people and the representatives of their government are so flippy flappy that they can barely escape the undignified position of being a joke." Of "Dr. Hoover" the Palmetto Leader says: "Doctor Herbert Clark Hoover, President of the United States of America must have made a special study of Negro psychology, or had the advice of a specialist in Negro psychology; for after braving all the importunities and beseechings on the part of Negro groups, and what have you, to have his handsome physiognomy photographed with htem for well nigh four years he has finally succumbed to the idea at what is more than likely to prove a strategic moment. The Republican bcrd of strategy saw to it that several Negro politicians were invited to the Capital where the President crooned sweet nothings to them in his most dulcte tones and honored himself by permitting Scurlock, Negro photographer of Washington to make a picture of him and the group. It's dollars to doughnuts that no other colored photographer has ever caught the presidential visage while he was aware of it. If Hoover's trick works—and it will—it will simply prove that the Negro's political mentality is at imbecilic levels." NEGRO JOURNALISTS (From Palmetto Gazette) Recently there appeared in the Negro press a release stating that there are fewer than four hundred Negroes in America who are listed as journalists by occupation. The release stated that the number given was a considerable increase over that of the previous census. When we consider the fact that there are more than two hundred Negro publications in the United States, and fewer than four hundred journalists by occupation, it must appear that the onus of furnishing reading matter about the Negro has fallen upon the shoulders of non-journalists. Perhaps the reason for the puncity of professional Negro newsmen is the lack of support given newspapers and magazines by Negro readers, and the resultant inability on the part of our publications to pay for worthwhile copy. This causes the writers who carry our newspapers in many cases to furnish copy gratis, or for just a pittance which when speaking of gainful occupations would not give reason for most of our newspaper writers to call journalism an avocation. There is much that the Negro can do in journalism; but before much is done a reading public mush be formed which will give such support to the press as will enable Negro editors, publishers and reporters to give their full THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1932 * * * OUR MAIL AN APPRECIATION To the Editor: May I commend the action of the Athletic Board at Howard University which resulted in complimentary admission of junior and senior high school pupils to the Howard-West Virginia game, and reduced admission to other games? Besides creating an interest in football and Howard University on the part of the generation approaching higher learning levels, the leisure time of these children will be profitably spent. On this point, may I quote from a message to parents sent through the National Education Association in American Education Week relative to your child's leisure. "Each generation enjoys more leisure as men learn how to make machines work for them on the farms, in the mines, factories, and offices. Rapid transportation, rapid communication, speedier services of all kinds are increasingly saving time. Your child will have more hours free from labor than you have had. The school seeks to teach him to use his leisure with discrimination and wisdom. In school your child learns to appreciate fine companionship, wholesome conversation, the world's finest literature, sculpture, music, and other art. He may be developing skill in one of these arts himself. He is encouraged to pursue worthwhile interests, to learn games for healthful recreation, to swim, to enjoy outdoor life, to prefer those leisure activities which build instead of destroy, to make daily play a source of joy and strength." Afternoons spent out of doors enjoying wholesome sport, preferably as a participant, but even as a spectator offer health and happiness values that make for better living. E. B.

KELLY MILLER SAYS: THE NEGRO PRESS ASSERTS ITS POLITICAL INDEPENDENCE For the first time in our political history the Negro press has asserted its independence. Hitherto it has been fettered by ties of tradition and gratitude to the fortunes of the Grand Old Party. The Republican National Committee has taken this gratitude for granted and has doled out to each journal a campaign pittance according to circulation and influence to assure continued fidelity and good offices. During the campaign of 1928, we saw scattered instances of journalistic independence. The Afro-American declined the traditional offer of pittance and opened its pages to both parties alike for paid advertisement at fixed space rates, but asserted that its editorial columns were not for sale at any price. The Chicago Defender acted on the same principle. The Pittsburgh Courier was rebuked by Republican bosses for selling advertisement space to both sides as a purely commercial transaction. In the present campaign the colored press is independent or non-partizan. The bosses of the Grand Old Party bitterly complain at this attitude of manly independence. They acridly denounce all such disaffection, dogmatically assuming that "those who are not for me are against me." The sad part about it is that the Negro henchmen and sycophants have assumed matter of fact very few Negro journals or individuals would care to be listed as out and out Democrats. They merely seek results by political action which they judge can be best effected by playing off one party against the other, hoping thereby to gain more than by doglike devotion to the Republican party which assumes to own him soul and body. It is not that he loves the Democrats more, but the Republicans less. And yet he does not dislike the principles of the Grand Old Party, but its faults. It is most interesting to note that the Southern press has caught the non-partizan contagion. Between the regular Democrats and the lily white Republicans of the South they find themselves between the Devil and the deep sea. The limited choice lies between drowning or burning. Such influential Southern journals as the Norfolk Journal and Guide, the Louisville News, the Houston Informer, and the Kansas City Call, together with sundry others have thrown the weight of their influence to Roosevelt and away from Hoover. "Defender" Hesitant The Chicago Defender, which claims the largest circulation of all has constantly maintained a critical and hesitant attitude. Like LOOK OUT FOR PARROT FEVER LOOK OUT FOR PARROT FEVER By Algernon B. Jackson, M.D. The United States Health Service advises all persons to avoid contact with recently shipped or acquired birds of the parrot family. Several cases of mastacosis, or parrot fever, are being reported in various parts of the United States. Reports of five cases and one fatality have recently been received from Minneapolis, Minn. Another case has been reported from Boise, Idaho. There have been twelve cases of parrot fever, with six deaths, reported in California between December 1, 1981, and February 10, 1932. Upon the recommendation of the Public Health Service, the Secretary of the Treasury has recently issued an order amending the interstate quarantine regulations so as to limit the interstate transportation of birds of the parrot family by common carriers to those certified by the proper health authority of the State as coming from aviaries free from infection. A medical officer of the Public Health Service at the invitation of the California State Department of Public Health, within the recent past made a careful study of the situation in California with reference to parrot fever infection and the breeding of birds of the parrot family in that state. Conclusive evidence was thus obtained which indicates that psittacosis, or parrot fever infection is present in some of the breeding aviaries of Southern California. Parrots and parrakeets from this source have probably been one of the important means of spreading the disease through other States. The cases occurring in Minneapolis and Boise were traced to California birds as well as previous cases this year reported from New York City and Oregon. An outbreak of psittacosis or parrot fever occurred in the United States during the winter of 1929-30. One hundred and sixty-three cases were reported at that time, with thirty-three deaths. Practically all of these were traced to association with recently acquired parrots and parrotfeet. BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S PATAL the timid soul on the banks of the Jordan, it stands "lingering, shivering, on the brink and fears to launch away." The Afro-American and the Pittsburgh Courier with the largest circulation and influence in the East and middle States are avowedly pro-Roosevelt. The New York Age, the Nestor of Negro journalism, whose venerable editor, Fred R. Moore, was Minister to Liberia for one consecutive day, and who recently was elected as a Republican alderman from the Harlem district, stoutly refuses to support President Hoover. The Washington Tribune is also in this category. The Indianapolis Recorder, which is the only Negro journal in the very doubtful State of the Indiana, has filed its declaration of independence. The Boston Chronicle and the Guardian, our only Negro papers in New England, have cut loose also. The Amsterdam News and the Philadelphia Tribune, both influential and important journals, may be construed as standing by the party of Lincoln and Summer, but not feebly and apologetically after swallowing many previous complaints with painful gurgitation. Last Moments The present day policies and practices of the Grand Old Party towards the Negro find little or no spontaneous and enthusiastic support anywhere throughout the Afro-American press. This is the best guage of public opinion throughout the race. The Rubicon has been crossed. There remains but three weeks of the campaign. It is too late for effective sudden conversion. Any journal which in these critical closing days should confess a sudden change of political heart would be accused of being influenced by motives of filthy lucre. You cannot wipe out four years of complaint and citicism against Mr. Hoover and his lily white program by eleventh hour change of heart. Even the turn coat non-partizan can hardly get away with that. It is the function of the press to reflect to the white people the just and genuine feeling, sentiment, judgment and attitude of the sentiment of the race it represents. It should also help to direct this sentiment in the right and wise direction. In no case should it attempt to deceive the white race concerning the actual temper and state of mind of its Negro constituency. The Negro press is the most effective organ of public opinion among us. It is more powerful and effective than pulpit or platform. It is more influential in expressing and shaping public sentiment than school or church. When the press speaks the people listen. The white politicans, of both parties, if they are wise, will take heed also. 72-Year-Old Man Found Dead In Corcoran Street A seventy-two-year old man, Tom Payne, of rear 1342 Corcoran street, northwest, was found dead on the second floor of his home Tuesday by George Gaddis, of 1700 block of Thirteenth street, northwest.

Jackson, M.D. THERE IS TOO MUCH WASTED LOVE One evening last week I sat among a group of friends, most of whom are fine scholars and good thinkers. At that certain stage of the conversation always indigenous to Negro gatherings the interracial problem was launched. Much time was spent attempting to evaluate the importance of various whites. But, whatever the appraisal might be, if it were recorded that said white did not like Negroes he was at once thrown into the discard. Finally the color of the conversation changed and certain Negroes were placed upon the griddle and I rather got the impression that we do not seem to like each other any too well. Some years ago while on a long motor trip we noticed that everywhere we went colored folks smiled and spoke to us, strangers to them. I called the attention of my wife to the fact and without a moments' thought or mental ruffle she remarked, "Oh, that doesn't mean anything, we smile and speak, but we have never learned to love each other. A lot of love is wasted among Negroes which ought to be used to make them strong, for you can't down a people who really love each other." Rather grudgingly perhaps, I have to concede that my mate has a way all her own of saying the things she thinks. However, I never heard her express herself better than in the above statement. If we could learn to love each other more, we need never be concerned whether certain whites like us or not. Love and loyalty are unbeatable. They spell victory which will endure and bring glory to a people who possess these virtues. Health, wealth and every form of social and economic progress may be the gift to the twelve million blacks in America who still have one great lesson to learn—the unfailing power of love for each other. Why go on wasting love and complaining of alien unfriendliness? NEGRO COLLEGE PRESIDENTS AND PROFS. INCREASE NEGRO COLLEGE PRESIDENTS AND PROFS. INCREASE (CNS)—The total number of Negro college presidents and professors in the United States have increased in the last ten years by 1,083, according to the 1980 Occupational Statistics, recently released by the Bureau of the Census.

Texas leads the States in the number of college presidents and professors with a total of 134 males and 130 females; North Carolina follows with 246-132 males and 114 females; Georgia is third with 176-86 males and 90 females. These are followed by South Carolina with 175-88 males and 87 females; Mississippi, 172-76 males and 96 females; Virginia, 149-86 males and 63 females; Alabama, 139-55 males and 84 females; Florida is eighth with 107 classified as college presidents and professors, 58 males and 4 fe- State Male Female Alabama 55 14 Arkansas 37 35 California 1 1 Colorado 1 1 Delaware 8 1 District of Columbia 72 28 Florida 88 49 Georgia 86 90 Illinois 1 3 Indiana 1 1 Kansas 13 7 Iowa 2 2 Kentucky 29 19 Louisiana 38 40 Maryland 17 13 Massachusetts 6 3 Michigan 2 2 Minnesota 2 2 Mississippi 76 96 Missouri 24 17 Nebraska 1 1 New Mexico 4 1 New York 13 6 North Carolina 132 114 Ohio 41 29 Oklaoua 10 17 Pennsylvania 6 1 South Carolina 88 87 Tennessee 46 39 Texas 164 120 Virginia 64 68 West Virginia 17 17 The seventeen States not listed show no return for Negro college presidents or professors, the Negro population in those States being very small.

SOCIAL HIGHLIGHTS Depression Is Holding Up Washington's Society Whirl Depression Is Holding Up Washington's Society Whirl By CAPITOLA Washington has not yet swung into its social stride this season. Usually about this time of the year the various clubs and sets are swinging along in fine style, but probably because of the "depression" this year, this is not the case. It is believed however, that the end of this month those matrons who usually contribute quite a bit toward Washington's national reputation as a great social center will open up their doors and again let the rippling laughter of Washington's elite ring from their windows. The annual football classique, the Howard-Lincoln game (although it will not happen for over a month) is already beginning to furnish a topic for plans and conversations. Many persons are already beginning to plan to entertain guests; but why worry about that, we will reveal their plans at a later date. Many of the Howard Alumni were in attendance at the game Saturday and saw the Bisons romp over West Virginia to the tune of 6-0. Friends of Colonel Joseph M. Trigg will be interested in knowing that he has retired from the Postal service after having successfully served in it for thirty-one years. Many of his friends gathered at the Y.M.C.A. last Sunday and paid him a very touching tribute. Both the Alphas and Omegas entertained last week at their respective habitats and if those two parties staged by them mean anything they augur a very sensational season for the wearers of the sphinx and lamp. Pastor Surprises Wife Many friends and co-workers assembled at the residence of Rev. and Mrs. Thomas Gates, 777 Fairmont street, northwest, Sunday and tendered to Mrs. Mamie Gates one of the greatest surprises of the season on the occasion of the anniversary of her birth. The evening was enlivened with an appropriate musical program and special vocal selections were requested of Mrs. Perris Patterson who responded, most pleasingly. Other numbers were rendered by Mrs. Walker and Mrs. Holloman, the latter reciting a wonderful humorous selection depicting an "Inquisitive Little Boy's First Visit to the Museum." The crowning event of the evening came in the nature of travelogues by Capt. and Mrs. Edgar Smith, recently returned from a three months' tour of the west. Capt. Smith, by request, related interesting first-hand experiences of the Olympic Games held at Los Angeles, Calif., while Mrs. Smith exploited the wonders and thrills of the Yellowstone National Park. Both were very instructive and entertaining in their remarks and supplemented their recountings with pictures and souvenirs collected on the trip. Mrs. Patterson then gave out some interesting information and experiences in connection with her social welfare work and thus the evening passed pleasantly and merrily while the guests were served with an abundance of delicious refreshments. Mrs. Gates was the recipient of many beautiful and appropriate gifts and favors from her coworkers at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Rev. and Mrs. C. E. Hodges, of Frederick, Md., expressed their regrets at being unable to attend in the form of a beautiful greeting card (Pages of Joy) by special delivery.

This quartet of musicians and funsters aided by their talented throats and harps, and the guitar, of course, received the vociferous plaudits of the audience at each performance. Not many months ago the four brothers were selling their talents on the street corners of a small Ohio city for pennies, nickels and dimes. With an uncanny ability to imitate a tuba, clarinet, cornet, saxophone, and trombone, the "Family of Four" almost overnight leaped into the limelight through the medium of the radio, which incidentally has made many late stars. Clever mimics because of their natural ability to imitate a variety of musical instruments, the Mills Brothers started broadcasting two years ago over Station WLW in Cincinnati. Their unique style caught the public and today, they stand as the most outstanding attraction on stage or the air. From the time the familiar theme song of the quarter, "Bye Bye Blues" drifts across the footlights at the T-Street House until the same song gives notice of the show's end, the applause of the audience is thunderous. If it were not for the microphone and transmitters placed on each side of the theatre, the voices of the Mills Brothers would be hardly audible. Grouped around the mike, and supplying their own accompaniment, the Brothers in their enviable style render in a catchy manner, "Ole Man of the Mountains," "Old Rocking Has Got Me," "I Only Heard," and the feature number, "Under the Harlem Moon." Of course the Mills Brothers are the big hit, but they were supported by the "Three Chocolate Steppers," a speedy trio who give a good exhibition of soft shoe tap dancing, Mercia Marquis and the girls who gave three routines. Doris Rhuebottom, local girl, sang "It Is So Beautiful" while Batie supplied the comedy with his jokes and comical dancing. On the screen, Sally Eilers and Ben Lyon star in "Hat Check Girl" a film that is trite and airy. —A.M.C.

There must be some other agency to help the home, school and church in the great work of character building. Leisure time must be supervised and directed in channels of wholesome pleasure. In this field the Girl Reserve Movement plays a big part. Girl Reserves are the young members of the Y. W. C. A. between the ages of 12 and 18, who accept a purpose and strive toward it, thinking of themselves as a reserve force getting ready for places of leadership and responsibility in their Y. W. C. A. their homes, schools, church and communities. Clubs are organized in grade schools, junior and senior high schools, churches, settlement houses and the "Y". All clubs however are directly affiliated with the Girl Reserve Department of the Y. W. C. A. Each club at various times during the year holds meetings at the "Y". Perhaps a better way of expressing the G. R. Movement is that it is a big, big family of which each club is a member, all working together for fellowship and service. Last year over 600 girls joined the Movement and from all evidence they thoroughly enjoyed their Clubs. Cooperation in the various schools, churches and other organizations in the past has been very splendid. Working together in the interest of our youth of today will mean good citizens of tomorrow. The following clubs are being organized: Dunbar High, School Club, Miss Laverne, Gregory, Advisor; Armstrong high School, Mrs. Maxine Whedbee, Advisor; Cardozo Business High School, Mrs. Mush Weatherless, Advisor; Margaret Washington Vocational, Mrs. Lancaster and Miss Green Advisors; Francis Junior High, Mrs. Mary M.

Hostess RECIPES FOR CLUB A By GERTRUDI This food page is conduct recipes that have been tried quickly prepared, and econom in your favorite recipe, or letter BETTY BARCLAY LAUDS THE HUMBLE BEAN Betty Barclay in a recent newspaper release says that beans are such an important item in the diet that many women have come to think of them in terms of bread, potatoes, bacon and eggs. In other words the bean is something that is to be served regularly, but after all it is a rather plain unattractive dish in spite of its deliciousness and healthful qualities. No greater injustice has ever been done the healthful bean than to intimate that a bean dish must be a plain dish. Beans, when baked, may be served in some of the most attractive forms imaginable. Before describing two or three of these, however, may I suggest that you always assure yourself that the baked beans you serve are really baked. This is by no means a silly suggestion, for most of the purchase: beans that people call "baked" beans are really not baked at all—they are merely steamed or boiled. The wise housewife who wants baked beans will read the labels on the cans she purchases. Unless she finds the worked "baked" she may rest assured that the beans are not baked. She may also be sure that there is just as much difference between steamed or boiled beans and baked beans as there is between a boiled potato and a faky baked potato. When you have secured real baked beans take your cans home and try out the following recipes. When you place these foods upon the table your guests and the members of your family will hardly recognize the humble little bean in its full dress clothes. Baked Beans and Egg Salad. 1 medium can oven-baked beans (Boston style.) 3 hard-cooked eggs 1 small onion, chopped ½ teaspoon salt small quantity of gherkins mayonnaise and salad dressing lettuce. Place oven-baked beans in a sieve and wash with boiling water and cool. Add chopped egg whites, gherkins, onion and salt. Moisten with mayonnaise and serve in crisp lettuce cups. Garnish with mayonnaise and egg yolks pressed through a sieve. Serve very cold. Serves 4. Bermuda Onions Stuffed with Beans. 6 large Bermuda onions 7 tablespoonfuls butter 8 medium can oven-baked beans 1/4 teaspoonful pepper Peel the onions carefully, scoop out centers, leaving hollow cup with opening at the top about as big as a fifty-cent piece. Chop ½ cupful of the onion removed from centers and let simmer in butter 10 minutes. Remove from fire and combine with oven-baked beans, ketchup, seasonings and bread crumbs. Fill onions with prepared mixture. Place in a deep, covered baking dish with little water. Bake in modern oven (575°F.) 1½ hours or until onions are tender. Serves 6. 1 small can oven-baked beans (vebetarian style). 1 teaspoonful onion, minced ½ cupful chow chow pickle, chopped finely. 1 tablespoonful mustard sauce, from pickle Chill corned beef in can several hours, then cut in thin slices. Mash oven-baked beans and combine with pickle, and mustard sauce. Spread baked bean mixture between slices of corned beef. Arrange on a platter and garnish with parsley. Make it a rule to rub all grease from the kitchen range and gas stove, while still hot, with newspaper. If rubbed off then there is no difficulty in cleaning the stove afterwards.

Good Things to Eat Recipes For Cool Days 2 eggs (beaten separately) 1 teaspoon salt 3 teaspoons baking powder 1 tabtespoons melted butter Sift flour, baking powder and salt into mixing bowl. Beat yolks well and add milk and beat, adding this to the flour, slowly beating until perfectly smooth. Then add melted butter and fold in whites stiffly beaten. ½ teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon baking powder 4 tablespoons sugar ½ pound butter 2 eggs 1½ cups milk Cream butter and sugar; add eggs and milk, then dry ingredi- ents sifted together. Bake two and one-half to three minutes on waffle iron. CHOCOLATE CAKE WAFFLES 4 tablespoons shortening 10 tablespoons sugar 2 ounces chocolate 3 eggs 1½ cups milk 1½ cups flour 3 teaspoons baking powder ¼ teaspoon salt Cream shortening and add sugar. Add chocolate, melted, and eggs well beaten. Add milk alternately with the flour which has been sifted with the baking powder and salt. Add vanilla. Serve with butter and powdered sugar. Makes six waffles. Use Water Instead Of Milk For These Rolls This recipe ought to startle you a little—or else we're pretty badly mistaken. It gives a way of raising dough in water! Yes, it is really true. The dough is tied up in cheese cloth and kept in cool water until it floats on the top! Really, this method is a very clever way of achieving the constant temperature at which yeast grows heat. Draft dangers are eliminated, and surprisingly, the dough doesn't become water soaked. Another point: it isn't necessary to scald evaporated milk for use in bread making. It has been sterilized. Hot water is employed to make the milk lukewarm for mixing. Butter Rolls. 3 cups bread flour 1 teaspoon salt ½ cup butter ¼ cup evaporated milk ¼ cup hot water 2 cakes compressed yeast 1 tablespoon sugar 3 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 cup chopped nuts ½ cup sugar Sift flour, then measure. To 1½ cups flour add salt and butter, combining as the pie crust. Combine milk and hot water. When lukewarm add yeast and 1 tablespoon sugar, blend well, then stir into mixture. Cover and let stand 20 minutes, then add well beaten eggs., vanilla and remaining 1½ cups flour. Stir until smooth. The dough will be stiff, but slightly sticky. Tie dough loosely in a piece of cheese cloth and drop into a pail of cool water (70-80° F.). In about an hour the dough will rise to the top of the water. Remove from pail, turn onto a plate, cut off pieces the size of an egg and roll each in a mixture of chopped nuts and ½ cup sugar. Twist into a figure 8 and place on a greased baking sheet. Let stand 5 minutes, then bake in a hot oven (425° F.) 10 to 15 minutes. Yield: 36 rolls. These rolls are just the kind for afternoon tea or a dainty luncheon. Their color is perfect, and their taste—well, you'll see. HOSTESS TO TILLIES BRIDE CLUB Mrs. Lillian Brickhouse was heatest to the "Tillies Bridge Club" on last Thursday evening.

Hostess THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1932 Make This Salad With Fish Reprinted by request: Many of us know too little about the marvelous food creations that have developed out of the long and rich experience of certain groups of people. Many Jewish recipes that are excellent combinations of ingredients and flavor, are entirely unknown to the world at large. Here is a real Jewish recipe for a fish salad that is an amazingly fine thing to serve during autumn. Among smoked fish, finnan haddie is perhaps a supreme delicacy. The directions given below certainly show that the Jewish people know how to prepare fish. The sour cream dressing—so easily made—indicates another way of using evaporated milk. The addition of vinegar results in a pleasing tartness that can be secured every time, and just the right thickening always occurs. 1 1/4 cups cooked finnan man haddie Onion to flavor 1 cup finely chopped celery, cabbage, or apple. 1 teaspoonful salt 1/4 teaspoonful mixed mustard 1 cup evaporated milk Combine fish with onion an celery. Mix salt, mustard and vinegar. Add slowly to milk, beating all the while. Add this dressing to the fish mixture. Garnish with sliced beets or hard boiled egg and serve on lettuce. A good way to use leftover fish. Canned salmon or cooked haddock may be used. Yield: 6 servings. The sour cream dressing recipe is a good one to keep handy for use with different salads—especially those made with other kinds of fish, or vegetables. It is well to remember, too, that in some cases you may wish to use lemon juice instead of vinegar, as the souring agglut. Mashed Potatoes Liked By Most People Mashed potatoes are really a glorious and appetizing part of the meal when prepared according to the recipe given here. They have a smooth texture, an excellent creamy taste, and good color. Here is a striking case where the use of concentrated evaporated milk means superior results. Mashed potatoes made with it have an unusually fine body and flavor. And with this form of milk, the potatoes will contain considerably more nourishment. This is another good way of putting more milk in food—always sourst where the children are concerned. About four times as much milk can be included when the directions given here are followed. One school cafeteria manager discovered she could provide more nutritive value for a nickel with milk-containing mashed potatoes, than in any other manner. The potatoes are boiled with the jackets on so that there will be no loss of nutritive elements. They also have better texture for the purpose, cooked this way. Boil potatoes in jackets. Remove skins and mash to remove all lumps. Add milk. Beat until white and fluffy. More milk may be needed. Season with salt and pepper. Pile lightly on a hot dish. Many like minced parsley, cress or grated onion added to mashed potatoes. Yield: 6 servings. Mashed potatoes prepared with concentrated evaporated milk make excellent potato cakes. They shape easily, have good consistency, and brown beautifully. THE LUCKY THIRTEEN Dr. Coleman's Good Health Rules. 1. Wash the teeth and scrub the tongue twice daily, upon arising and upon retiring, and occasionally massage the gums. 2. Take a warm thorough cleansing bath every two or three days. 3. Sponge the body daily with cold water, rub briskly dry well and always attend to natures demands promptly. 4. Keep the hair and scalp clean and the hair well brushed. 5. Sit straight with the feet upon the floor, walk erect and breathe naturally. 6. Sleep from nine to ten hours in a well ventilated room, a window open at the bottom, another open at the top, or a transom or a door open on the opposite side of the room. This will create a better circulation of the air. 7. Play, exercise, and breathe deeply in the open air, in the sunshine if possible, for at least one hour daily. Young children should practically live out-of-doors. 8. Keep the hands away from the mouth, wash them before eating and make yourself presentable. Many diseases of childhood are carried by the hands. 9. Wait at least an hour after eating before bathing. 10. Keep the body warm after a bath and after vigorous exercise. 11. Eat sweets only at mealtimes as part of the meal. The ingestion of sweets between meals is the appetite for foods essential for body building. 12. Practice a cheerful outlook upon life. A happy frame of mind is good mental hygiene. 13. Eat three nourishing meals daily, warm foods if possible. The foundation for a vigorous body is meeting of the National Federal Employees Union held here last week at the Carlton Hotel when resolutions were adopted urging the Federation to use every legitimate means at their command to prevent the re-enactment of the furough plan for the fiscal year 1934. The Federation further pledged itself to work for the repeal of the permanent conditions in the Economy Act affecting married parsons, compulsory retirement, and the reduction of annual leave from thirty to fifteen days. It was brought out at the meeting that the Economy Act through its drastic reduction in appropriations has seriously handicapped the work of the Civil Service Commission and a resolution was adopted asking members to seek Congressional support for an adequate appropriation for the Commission. The meeting was closed with a banquet at which the following colored persons were present: Edward L. Scott, Mys. Isadore A. Letcher, Garner Mahoney, Mrs Nettle Edwards, Howard Walker and J. Maurice Gates. BEAUTY HINTS By Nina Temple MAKE YOUR OWN BAT POWDER Why not make your own bath powder?

Everyone, especially children should avoid all highly seasoned foods. Pickles, pastry, soggy bread, white crackers, fried foods, tea, coffee and strong cocoa have no place in a rational system of diet. Parents are advised to accept and have their children practice the foregoing rules of health. Children receiving instructions in the practice of these rules will develop normally; will avoid malnutrition and the resulting retardation; physical suffering will be minimized; the inferior mental states will be prevented; and the mortality rate for children will be recorded as the lowest in modern civilization. Howard Carrington, Ph. D., states that: "When we see the destruction and harmful effects of malnutrition upon our modern civilized communities, there can be no doubt that this question of food is an essential and important one, and that correct, understanding of dietetics is one of the most important problems of the world today." Federal Employees To Fight Continuance of Economy Act For Fiscal Year 1934.

Judge Payne in response to a previous complaint from Florida forwarded by the N.A.A.C.P., ordered that there be no discrimination on a color basis. The letter to the N.A.A.C.P. from the Clearwater colored citizens charges: 1. that Negroes are being denied free flour and free government cloth while white families are being fully supplied; 2. Negroes are made to wait until whites have been supplied and then, if any is left, they receive the fragments, accompanied by abuse and insult; 3. before receiving relief, Negroes are made to do a day's work for $1 and are paid not in cash but in groceries. White people are paid in cash and allowed to select their own supplies. The letter charges that a white woman, M. E. Mandeville, head of the unemployment relief committee, is responsible for the abuses to which Negroes are subjected and alleges that the relief station "is more for white suffering and those are not suffering, than for the colored people."

HAVE HIM SELL THE TRIBUNE CIVIC GROUP ASKS FOR NEGRO CLERKS IN CHAIN STORES CIVIC GROUP ASKS FOR NEGRO CLERKS IN CHAIN STORES Pleasant Plains Citizens Adopt Resolution For Negro Employment The Pleasant Plains Citizens' Association in its first meeting of the year at Monroe School, Friday night, passed a resolution providing for the employment of Negro clerks in the chain stores of the community. The adopted resolution points out that the chain stores in the section are supported almost entirely by Negroes' money but Negroes are not employed at the stores. The association demands that these stores employ Negro clerks or plan to boycott the stores.

LOCAL BOY MAKES IOWA GRID TEAM LOCAL BOY MAKES IOWA GRID TEAM Expected To Play Here Friday When Team Meets George Washington Wilbur "Winds" Wallace, outstanding athlete of a few years ago, with Armstrong High School, has gained a quarterback position on the University of Iowa gridiron team. Reports from Iowa's grid camp early this week stated that in an effort to inject more speed into his backfield, Wallace had been given the quarterback position in the stead of Teyro, while Dickerson, another colored youth from St. Louis, replaced Joe Laws at halfback. Iowa is scheduled to play George Washington University in Griffith Stadium next Friday, October 28, and unless the game is cancelled because George Washington may refuse to play against a colored player, as McKinley High School did last year by calling off a game with a Pennsylvania school when it learned that the team had a colored star, Wallace will be seen in action by his home town folks. Coach Ossie Solem, of Iowa, has already committed himself on the color question, and recently stated that if Wallace couldn't play, the game with George Washington would be cancelled. Wallace entered the Western School last year. When at Armstrong "Winds" starred in four sports—football, basketball, baseball and swimming. During the championship game with Dunbar in 1929, Wallace played the entire game with an injured finger, and was directly accountable for the winning touchdown.

Broughton, commissioner of the Public Debt, of the United States Treasury, Monday against a jim-crow order which discriminated against colored messengers and employees in the building located at Fifthenight street and New York avenue. The delegation consisted of Miss Emma F. G. Merrett, president of the local branch of the N.A.A.C.P.; A. S. Pinkett; and Robert W. Bagnall, director of branches of the association, and newspapermen. 13. Men Named The alleged jimcrow order was posted by S.

Carroll, John H. Chinn, Charles W. Gray, Robert A. Howard, Thaddeus S. Mitchell, Stanley A. Reed, Casie Sounders, Arthur Thomas, Charles H. Toulson, Albert Walker and Atis J. Williams.

As you report between 8 and 8:15 in the morning and there is less traffic at that time than later when the other employees report, your cars should be parked in accordance with these instructions. Please initial this memorandum and return it to me (Signed) J.S.Wilson, assistant chief, Division of Loans and Currency." For Colored Only It was pointed out to Mr. Broughton that the order was aimed at colored employees only and was discriminatory in that white employees in the same class were not mentioned and the latter group would be permitted to park their cars in the rear of the building near their place of employment while colored employees had to seek other space several blocks from the building. Mr. Broughton said it was the first time he had heard of the order and would launch an immediate investigation.

SECOND SECTION SOME GOSSIP THAT— "I ONLY HEARD" By And Rivers That a Washington girl will be "Queen of the Classic" this Thanksgiving Day. The queen was formerly selected each year by the Tatler, a New York publication which has discontinued publication. Usually a New York girl was sent as queen. Now, what will Washington select? We have the types here; let's show New York some "class!" The "Queen of the Classic" will receive a round of pleasure; honors galore will be bestowed upon her. Besides being the big cheeses during this gala period she will get $25 to play with—a sort of added attraction. Sounds good doesn't it? But of course, you'll want to know the details, so look elsewhere in this paper. I'll tell you this much more, however, that candidates for the "Queen of the Classic title must be entrants in the Lichtman Theatres' third annual popularity contest now being conducted by this paper. One of those contestants will be selected as "Queen of the Classic." Of course, it is possible for the "Queen of the Classic" to become also "Miss Washington of 1932," but it does not necessarily follow. That will depend entirely upon the way the public votes before November 11, when the voting ends for the "Queen of the Classic," and December 2, when the Lichtman Theatres popularity contest closes. At any rate this whole town is pointing toward this Thanksgiving holiday and the Howard-Lincoln game. So get ready for a few heart-throbs and headaches. And hail the Queen! Who will she be? But right on our door-step we have red-hot good times. The grand opening of the newly-decorated Murray Casino takes place "come next Tuesday," October 25 from 9:30 p.m. The management is giving a complimentary dance for its patrons. Hartwell Cook will conduct his ten-piece New Casino Orchestra, while added entertainment will be furnished by Lester Dorsey, emotional baritone, and Kid Smooth, banjo-picker, singer and dancer. This says the management will represent only a taste of the "Cabaret Dances," which the Casino will stage periodically during the winter season Then, too, the Casino management wants all of its old friends to give the Casino the "once over" since it has been dressed up. The walls and art panels were done by the Brown Sign Company. Now, you know Chaucey? Of course you do. And the lighting effects directed by Steve Miller, of the Lichtman Theatres. The Casino is now booking dates with Hartwell Cook's Band for breakfast, matinee, night and dawn dances. Can Hoover or Roosevelt Evade Negro, Asks World Tomorrow Editorial NEW YORK—Under the title, "Can They Evade the Issue?" the October 12 World Tomorrow editorially commends the questionnaire submitted to the Presidential candidates of the two leading political parties by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "The questions are of great interest to all those who have been working for bettered race relations," says the editorial and goes on to call them "pointed, but cruelly-guided shafts aimed directly at the gross hypocrisy of old-party pretentions about race relations. To answer them affirmatively would mean, as the N.A.A.A.C.P. doubtless knows, the complete reversal of Republican and Democratic practices for years. "No Democratic or Republican candidate for President could satisfy the Negro on these queries without at once breaking up his party and revealing it for the sham it is....As a journal which, year in and year out, has argued social and civic equality between the races, and which has eagerly fora stouter militancy among Negroes themselves in just such ways as that employed by the N.A.A.A.C.P. this fall, we congratulate the organization on this forthright stroke. It will bring clearly out of confusion on the part of all save those professional fixers in the old party machines, whose confusion will, we trust, be further demonstrated."
