Delegation Requests Star Not to Play Before a Segregated Audience TOO LATE TO STOP SPECIAL SHOWING Elks to Promote Separate Performance Sunday Night at National
A determined attempt to halt the showing of a "special" performance of "Green Pastures" here at the National Theatre on January 26 was launched this week when a delegation of citizens went to Baltimore Tuesday to protest to Richard B. Harrison, star of the play, who portrays the character of "De Lawd."
The special performance is being sponsored by W. C. Hueston, commissioner of Education of the Elks. At the "special" showing colored people will be permitted to sit anywhere in the house. At other performances Negroes will be barred.
Mr. Harrison said that he is under contract with his managers to play and felt that the fight should be carried to the theatre management rather than aimed at him. He expressed himself as being opposed to segregation and regretted the jim crow policy of the Washington and Baltimore theatres. He read to the delegation a prepared statement to the press in which he stated that he opposed jim crow and felt grieved to play in a theatre where his race was barred. The Rev. R. W. Brooks, pastor of Lincoln Temple Congregational Church and president of the Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance, one of the delegation, told Mr. Harrison that he was "unqualifiedly against anything that savors of segregation," and even if heaven was offered to him under the same condition that the play was he would have to pass it up.
Others in the delegation included Archibald S. Pinkett, secretary of the District branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; the Rev. H. T. (Continued on page 2)
25 "Dawn Boys, White, Arrested
Raid on Seventh Street Nig

Police Start D
A raid on an establishment at Seventh and S Streets, Northwest, early Friday morning netted some twenty-five "dawn boys" white and colored
The "dawn boys" were herded in two police patrol wagons of the second precinct and brought to the station house on U Street. All were charged with disorderly conduct. A crowd was attracted to the scene when officers began unloading the "catch."
In the group were many white "girls" who stepped daintily from the wagon dressed in the latest creations including jewelry and furs. All had on dainty underthings as could be seen when they lifted their skirts in leaving the wagons.
Some in Male Attire
Several wore the conventional male attire, but were highly powdered and rogued. High falsetto voices mingled with the hardboiled basses of police who ordered them to "step lively."

Janitor Fired On by Burglaras as He Emerges from Elevator
Walter 3. Perry, a janitor at the Brookings Institution, 744 Jackson Place, told police last week he narrowly escaped death or injury when three shots were fired at him by a burglar, who broke into an office on the second floor of the building.
Perry, who lives at 1112 Twentieth Street, said he was at work on an upper floor when he heard a noise. Descending to the second floor in an elevator, he started for the office. He had no more than emerged from the elevator when a shot was fired. He jumped back into the lift and slammed the door as two more shots were fired in rapid succession.
One of the bulletts struck the door of the elevator, but did not pierce the re-inforced glass. An investigation by third preset police disclosed that the office door had been jimmled. Officers of the institution began an investigation to determine whether anything had been stolen.
SENATE PASSES MILLION FOR H. U.
The Senate passed the Interior Department appropriation bill, Wednesday, which included an item of $400,000 for a heat, light and power plant at Howard University. Representative Oscar DePriest secured the insertion of the item in the bill over the opposition of the House appropriation committee. The bill carries a total of $1,092,500 for Howard University. Of this sum $412,500 is for salaries and $220,000 for general expenses of the university. The bill now goes to conference as it has already passed the House. For Freedmen's Hospital the bill carries $276,130, of which $199,270 is for salaries and professional services, and $76,860 for general expenses.

Mrs. John W. Harrison Wins Gas Range at Tribune Cooking School
Men Turned Away at Overflow Last Night of Cooking Class
The annual session of the Tribune Cooking School has passed, and The Washington Tribune, pioneer of the cooking school idea for Negroes here in Washington, feels proud of this, its second successful venture.
An enormous and enthusiastic crowd of housewives packed the Murray Casino the last two nights of the school. Because of the anticipated overflow crowd expected to attend on the closing night, men and children were excluded from the class. It was good that this precaution was taken, because this restriction permitted more women holders of tickets to be present when the awarding of the main prize, a gas range, was made.
When the men were told that they would not be admitted, some were pleased at the idea. One man was heard to say, "I didn't want to come to this thing no how—but my friend insisted."
One husband said, "Gee, that just gives my family one chance for a prize instead of two. These are hard times." Another one said, "I was really interested in the cooking school. I'm sorry I can't go in."
After a representative of the Washington Gas Light Company explained the advantages of the gas range, that they contributed as the main prize of the cooking school, ticket No. 3000 was drawn. Mrs. John W. Harrison, of 1917 Eleventh Street, Northwest, was the lucky person. Mrs. Harrison, who has been married for three years, said that "a prize of this kind is worth winning. My husband and I will ever feel very grateful to the Tribune and to the

LONE WRECKING CREW REMANDED FOR GRAND JURY
James Thompson was indicted by the District Grand Jury, Wednesday. The property allegedly torn down by him is owned by the Wardman Park Hotel and Washington Housing Corporations.
James Thompson, alleged to be a one-man wrecking crew, early this week, was ordered held for the grand jury on charges of depredations on private property.
Thompson is accused of wholly wrecking two buildings at 419 and 421 First Street, Southwest, and partially wrecking a third at 423. At the request of Assistant United States Attorney Michael F. Keogh, Judge Gus A. Schuldt fixed Thompson's bond at $3,000.
According to the defendant, he wrecked the buildings following a gross misunderstanding concerning the legal meaning of the word, "condemned." Thompson said that some one told him that the buildings has been condemned, that the materials were free for the taking, and he might as well "come on over and get some of it." This is the second time that Fourth Precinct police have been confronted with the unauthorized wrecking of buildings and the theft of the materials. About a year ago they were confronted with a similar case when buildings near the Capitol were wrecked.
Company: Harry William Alexander, address: address ap operator, who issued tickets to the cooking classes; Albert Brooks, advertising department; William Glenell Black advertising manager, general manager of the cooking school; Edward Leake, manager of the Casino where the school was conducted and Mrs. Jean Smith who assisted in the demonstrations.
MILTON STOCKS HELD ON MURDER CHARGE
Milton Stocks, of 2207 Georgia Avenue, Northwest, was held by a coroner's jury, Tuesday, for the action of the grand jury in the death of Robert Ealey, who died Sunday morning at Freedman's Hospital following an altercation between the two men Saturday night.
Witnesses testified, Tuesday, at the inquest, that Stocks and Ealey began quarrelling in front of 2213 Georgia Avenue about 10 o'clock.
Arthur Ray stated that he was with Stocks when Ealey came across the street and asked Stocks why he beat his (Ealey's) girl. He said that Ealey put his hand in his pocket and he walked away. When he turned to look again, the two men were lying in the street, and he saw Stocks's hand passing across Ealey's face and head.
Ealey was carried to Freedmen's Hospital, where he was treated by Dr. James Kelly Smith, who testified that he found five knife wounds about Ealey's head and face. Dr. C. J. Murphy, who performed the autopsy, testified that Ealey died from concussion of the brain accompanied by hemorrhage from the wounds in his head.
He also stated that he found the point of a knife blade in one of the wounds, but the knife did not penetrate the skull.
Stokes made a statement of self-defense. He said that Ealey cursed him and drew a knife. That he caught Ealey's hand which held the knife and struck him with his other hand, and he fell to the street. Stocks stated that he was in fear and did not remember how many times he cut Ealey.
C. S. Williams was the attorney for Stocks.

Local Banker Refuses to Pay More Than Half of Bets
Numbers players were hard hit Monday when one prominent up-town banker refused to pay off more than one half of the best on 191, which came out that day.
Several players had bet on that number and when the banker saw that he was in for a severe loss he announced through his runners that only fifty per cent of the amount would be paid bettors.
Other bankers who had only a few bets on the winning number paid in full. Hundreds gathered on Seventh Street at night and discussed the "dirty deal". Most of the players said that they would refuse to patronize the defaulting banker in the future. Several had as much as twenty-five cents on the number after playing this particular figure for weeks.
Not only did the banker cut the winnings of his patrons in half, but he deducted the usual commission from the winners. This banker is said to be paying short, since he pays 500 to 1 instead of the usual 600 to 1.
EXTRA NUMBERS BARONS REJECT OFFER OF "PROTECTION"
Threats of serious consequences and gun-play by a group of New York and Chicago racketeers failed to frighten local colored "numbers" backers into submission. Early this week several white gangsters, driving cars bearing New York and Illinois license tags came into this city to present to the numbers bosses here a new wrinkle in the racket. A meeting was arranged at the Maryland resort of a prominent white racketeer to which all the local bosses were invited. Some of the backers refused to attend and were subsequently threatened with "serious consequences" unless they would accept the proposal of the New York and Illinois crowd. One backer, when interviewed by a Tribune reported, explained the proposal as follows:
"These outside gangsters from the big city want the backers here to give them five per cent of our daily collections with the understanding that they would pay off on all days when we are heavily hit; for instance, on a hit like 191.
"In order that we would be able to pay them the five per cent that they demand, we are to pay only 500 to I, instead of 600 to 1. They also promised enough strong arm protection to take care of any backers who refused to come to their terms.
"I, as well as some of the other colored backers, know that this is merely a scheme to get control of

Tells Police Husband Beat Her, and at One Time Threatened her Life
Believed to have become temporarily insane with jealousy, Mrs. Elizabeth Stultz, 25, 637 Third Street, Northeast, shot and killed her husband, Dr. Christopher Columbus Stultz, 35, a practicing physician, Thursday night while he was in bed.
Five bullets were fired into his body. One pierced the skull and brain, another his heart, a third his chest, a fourth pierced his hip and a fifth his stomach. Death was believed to have been instantaneous.
Mrs. Stultz kept the shooting a secret until Friday afternoon when Mrs. Ollie Mallory, 621 Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest, the doctor's sister, became suspicious when her brother failed to answer repeated telephone calls. She went to his apartment with a taxicab driver where she found the door of his office locked. She notified police who opened the door with a skeleton key and found the body of the physician in bed.
After shooting her husband about midnight Thursday, Mrs. Stultz spent the night in the Union Station. She returned home Friday morning, dressed his three children by a former marriage and sent them to school. In the afternoon she took the children to the Dunbar Theatre while police were searching the city for her. She returned to the Third Street address and was arrested while standing outside of the house with the crowd, Friday afternoon about 4 p.m.
After her arrest, Mrs. Stultz (Continued on page 2)
Death Penalty Verdict Reported in Two Minutes
Two minutes after a jury in the District supreme court, criminal division, had been given the case of Ernest Bolden last week, who was charged with murdering his wife, the members filed into the courtroom with a verdict of guilty of murder in the first degree.

Washington is the only large city in the country where colored promoters have been able to retain the serving students with food. Two York, Philadelphia, and Chicago, white racketeers have gained almost complete control of this racket.

SAYS ELKS WILL NOT PROMOTE SHOWING
Grand Exalted Ruler Voices Strong Opposition to Segregation The proposed special performance of "Green Pastures" at the National Theatre will not be given under auspices of any depriment of the Ells, J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler, told the Tribune, Thursday.
"I am still grand exalted ruler and I am opposed to segregation and a special performance will mean jim crow." said Mr. Wilson. "I am against jim crow measures. The play will not be given by any department of the Elks." When W. C. Hueston, head of the educational department of the Elks and promoter of the special Sunday show, was asked to comment on the statement of Mr. Wilson, Mr. Hueston said he had nothing to say. The head of the Elks said that he is opposed to the jim crow policy of the National Theatre. Negroes should be permitted to see the show any day like other citizens, he stated.
FEDERAL INSURANCE GETS PRUDENTIAL BUILDING
Dr. W. H. Davis Purchases the Federal Insurance 3-Story Structure
The Industrial Savings Bank, through its president, W. H. C. Brown, announces the exchange of the Prudential Bank building at 715 Florida Avenue, Northwest, to the Federal Life Insurance Company for the latter's building on the northeast corner of Eleventh and U Streets, Northwest.
The Industrial Bank acquired the Prudential building when the two banks consolidated just fall.
The Federal Life is planning improved service to its policyholders and wanted a building with a strong safe and vault and made the Industrial the proposition to trade buildings.
The deal involves property valued at $103,000. The Prudential building is assessed at $57,000, and the Federal Life building at $46,000.
The Industrial in turn sold the Federal building to Dr. W. H. Davis, druggist, who occupies the corner store room with his drug store. The Columbia Realty Company, of which Jesse Mitchell is president, will have charge of the rentals of the Federal building.
Dr. Davis formerly owned a building on the Eleventh Street corner before the late John Lewis erected the three-story building, which was later purchased by the Federal Life.

Will you permit me to extend my congratulations to you
and the Washington Tribune for the initiative and enterprise
displayed in your special section this week devoted to the

Of course, you do have a slight advantage over papers in
many cities in regard to this particular business, since Ne-

an important section of the Washington market.’ It is fit-

ALLEGED. MASSIE
~ ATTACKERS
BE FREE
NEW. YORK CITY (CNS)—
Some time last fall two officials
of the Hawaiian government came
to New York and visited Washing-
ton, giving out hints in both cities
that some startling information in
the Massie alleged attack case
would’ soon be revealed.
The hints were such that news-
paper accounts at once predicted
that the bottom had fallen out. of
the alleged attack case and that
the four natives who, with Joseph
Kahahawai, were accused of hav-
ing perpetrated a brutal attack on
Mrs. Thalia Massie, wife of Lieut,
Massie, U.S.N. would soon be
freed in Hawaii.
The two officials; however, never
gave out the “startling informa-
tion” and returned home shortly
after visits to the departments in
Washington.
Reports now come from Honolulu
that “the final court chapter in the
Massie attack case will soon be
written” and that the territorial
authorities are reported to be ready
to seek dismissal of indictments
‘still pending against the four na-
tives.
Under the plan the charges
against the*four men will be nolle
prossed.
Kahahawai and the four men
‘who-are still alive, were tried more
than a year ago and the jury dis-
agreed after 97 hours’ deliveration.
Shortly, afterward, Kahahawai
was kidnapped from the court
house steps and his body was found
in an automobile occupied by Mrs.
Granville Fortescue, of Washing-
ton, D.C, mother of Mrs. Massie;
Lieutenant Massie, and a naval en-
listed man.
Lieutenant Massie, Mrs, Fortes-
cue, and two naval’ enlisted men
rere tried for the murder of Kaha-
hawai and found guilty after, a
long and sensational trial in which
the veteran mainland attorney,
Clarence Darrow, defended the
four Americans.
Later, after serving sentences of
fone hour in the court room, they
were pardoned by Governor Law-
renee Judd,
Many have doubted the truth of
the alleged attack case and exnect-
ed the “startling . information”
when given out to clear up the
entire matter. .
A New Bonus March
Being Planned
Emmantiel Levin, member of the
Conimunist party, in testifying be-
fore the’ joint, Congressional Com
mittee on. Veterans’ Affairs, last
week stated that there will be a
new march fo veterans to the cap-
ital to present former soldiers’ de-
mands to the expected special ses-
fion of Congress.
“We cannot say_now whether
there will be 10,000 or 50,000,”
Levin seid, “but they will be here.”
Pressed by Senator Walsh, Dem-
ocrat, of Massachusetts, for de-
tails of the proposed march, Levin
submitted to the committee the
names of those laying plans for
the demonstration,
‘Among them he named James W.
Ford, colored, Communist vice
presidential candidate in the recent
ection,
ed in bed and was not in the posi-
tion a man would ordinarily be in
if he were reaching for an obiect.
Mrs, Florence L, Crowder, who
lives in the same apartment house
said she heard what she believed
was pistol shots about 10 a.m.
Friday morning. However, & boy
in the house said the sounds must
haye been the backfire of an auto-
mobile. The exact time of the
shooting was not established, but
police thought it was Thursday
night as stated by the wife.
Mrs. Lottie Jones, another resi
dent of the apartments, said thal
early Friday morning ‘while’ she
was using a telephone in the front
hall on the first floor, she saw Mrs
Stultz leave the apartment, She
said she only knew the womar
casually.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (CNS)
—H. C. Jones, local Negro farm agent in a report to Dean I. O. Staub, head of the agricultural extension service at North Carolina College, at Raleigh, states that upon his appointment as special garden agent to work among unemployed Negroes last spring, he took $150 provided by the extension service and a similar amount appropriated by the city of Winston-Salem and developed a community income of more than $47,000.
Agent Jones reports that he worked for about three months giving supervision to a gardening project among residents.
During that time 2,068 gardens were arranged with adults and 3,230 among boys and girls. Of all the plots planted, about 37 per cent were good gardens and 42 per cent medium Twenty-one per cent were classed as poor.
The cost per garden averaged $6.16, and the average value of the vegetables produced in each garden amounted to $15.
This left a profit of $8.84 to the garden with a profit per acre of $176.80. The total profit from the venture amounted to $46 86.84, figuring the vegetables at the current market prices then existing.
C. R. Hudson, of North Carolina State College, in charge of extension work among Negroes, said that this example of aiding a helpless people to help themselves had proved of great value as an object-lesson throughout North Carolina and will stimulate more work of this kind in 1933.
Vicksburg Mayor Asked to Return Schuyler's Money
NEW YORK. The mayor of Vicksburg, Miss., has been asked by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to see that the police return $30 and a fountain pen which two policemen took from George S. Schuyler when they arrested him in Vicksburg on December 29. Schuyler, famous writer and traveler, was making an investigation of the levee camps for the N.A.A.C.P. when he was arrested without charge and lodged in jail overnight. The $30 was taken from him before he was taken to the police station. The fountain pen was turned in at the desk, but was not returned to him the next morning when he was released.
He was arrested and held overnight in a Vicksburg, Miss., jail Dec. 29, as a suspect in a robbery, according to a letter from Mayor J. C. Hamilton to Walter White, secretary of the N.A.A.C.P.
Thirty dollars was taken from him by two detectives before they carried him to the police station. At the station all his possessions, including a valuable fountain pen and $22 in cash, were checked in to the desk. The next morning Schuyler received everything except his fountain pen and, of course, the $20 which the two detectives had taken privately.
Mr. White wrote Mayor Hamilton requesting that the money and pen be secured and returned to New York.
Mayor Hamilton states in his letter that Schuyler was not mistreated in any way and that he was turned over to county authorities inasmuch as the robbery had been or indicated that the county officers or indicate that the county officers took charge of his effects. The mayor writes:
"Among his papers, of course, were found papers indicating he was connected with your association, which connection, had of necessity, to be checked. County authorities after due investigation, were satisfied Schuyler had no connection with the robbery and he was released."
The mayor stated he had read of the affair in "one of the Negro papers" but that the account was not true. He dodged completely the request for the return of the $30 and the fountain pen. The N.A. A.C.P. has written again asking for the return of the money.

"De Lawd" Smokes Big Black Cigar
"De Lawd" star of "Green Pastures," was dressed in a checkered suit with tie to match and was smoking a big black cigar when he met the delegation that called on him Tuesday in Baltimore.
"De Lawd" wore glasses and long white hair. In private life the star of the "mous play of Negro life is Richard B. Harrison. He weighs about 250 pounds and sports a big bay window.
The delegation called on the star to use his influence to stop a special showing of the play here January 26 for Negroes. The special performance is to be given at the National Theatre. The management of the playhouse has announced that Negroes will not be permitted to attend any other than the special show on Sunday night.
Mr. Harrison expressed regret that under his contract he was helpless in the matter.
Gibbons Institute Begins Annual Health Program
RIDGE, Md.—The ninth annual health campaign of Cardinal Gibbons Institute opened at the school on Sunday, January 23. Twenty-five diligent workers sat down to a dinner of which everything except the coffee was raised on the institute farm.
This health movement was started by Booker T. Washington in 1915 and has been so far-reaching in its effect that the federal government has grasped the idea and is now d'stributing literature by way of encouraging Negro Health Week.
This national work is under the direction of Dr. Algernon B. Jackson of Howard University.
The significance of this health campaign in St.. Marys County may be seen by an 8 per cent reduction in the mortality rate among Negroes. The Catholic Rural Life Movement is recognizing the work being done by Cardinal Gibbons Institute and is giving much credit to the school and its corps of workers for the improved living conditions in the county. Victor H. Daniel, the principal of the institute outlined a short history of the movement and presented plans for a proposed medical and dental clinic to be held at the institute in the near future. Father John La Farge, chairman of the executive committee of the board of trustees spoke pointedly on the necessity of garden raising, particularly during this period of unemployment. The health campaign is off to a good start.
Local Man Paints Portrait of Julius Rosenwald
GREENSBORO, N. C.—Prof. H. Clinton Taylor of the Department of Fine Arts, A. & T. College here has recently completed a life-size oil portrait of the late Julius Rosenwald, well known philanthropist and friend of Negro education. A representative of the General Education Board of New York who visited Professor Taylor's studio when the painting was nearing completion is said to have paid a very glowing tribute to the skill of the young artist reflected in this work and additional praise for the fine work being done in the artt division under Mr. Taylor's direction.
Mr. Taylor is the son of the Rev. W. A. Taylor of Washington, D.C. Professor Taylor deserves much credit for the fine record he is making at A. & T. College, which can boast largely as a result of his efforts, one of the finest and most promising art divisions in the South. Popularizing art education is a big job in itself; the fact that Mr. Taylor does not only seem to be doing that successfully, but has also found time to execute creditably several portrait commissions, is again very noteworthy. He recently completed his second painting of the late James B. Dudley, former president of A. & T. College, for the Dudley High School, this city. The Rosenwald portrait was painted for the Burlington High School, Burlington, N. C. (a Rosenwald school) the gift of the faculty students and friends of that school.
The Rev. W. H. Jernagin, pastor of Mount Carmel Baptist Church, is confined to his home, 1341 Third Street, Northwest, on account of illness.

Tribune's Depression Plant Attracts Interest
Hundreds of people have been attracted to the front window of The Tribune, at 920 U Street, Northwest, to see the "Depression Plant" in a large glass bowl. This phenomenon, was discovered by W. H. Widerman, a chemist in St. Louis. Mo. It is produced by the reaction of salt, bluing and water when applied to a lump of soft coal or coke in proper propositions. This plant was started Sundav by Mrs. Lillian Sewell, of 1127 Eighteenth Street, Northwest, who gave it to The Tribune. Monday. It was placed in the window about noon Monday and has attracted much attention.
The procedure for the plant is to take a lump of coal or coke and soak it in water for three or four hours, place in a bowl, glass preferred, sprinkle two tablespoonsful of water, two of bottle bluing (no block blue) and two tablespoonsful of salt. The next morning add two more tablespoonsful of salt and water (no more bluing is needed). Each morning thereafter add one tablespoonful of water, and watch it develop or grow.
Rumor Dunbar Teacher is Demoted After 70 Flunk

Miss McNeill referred a Tribune reporter to Walter S. Smith, principal who could not be reached. According to a rumor that reached the Tribune late Thursday, Miss McNeill was demoted after a number of parents complained concerning the large number in her class that failed to pass examination. It was said that seventy students out of ninety failed. Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of schools, could not be reached by the Tribune.

Washington's "Green Pastures"
"Green Pastures" plays the National Theatre—jim-crow and all.
Most Negroes will not see it. Much talk is passing the rounds. Many have been clamoring for an opportunity to see this show. Private individuals have come forward to sponsor a separate performance for Negroes only. Such a performance has been opposed by many. A few will escape detection by the professional "spotters" and will see the show at the National.
Is the coming event worth the consideration given it?
The object lesson of the "Green Pastures" affair is that Negroes have not learned to think straight on the color question.
There are two problems involved—one social, the other economic. The social angle deals with racial pride and self-respect. The economic side concerns only the members of the cast. The public should fully consider both sides of the question, should formulate an opinion, and make its opinion felt through some form of appropriate action.
The Negro has the right to see his own actors perform, according to the view of the general public. To the minds of many, it is almost inconceivable that an Italian opera could be staged in a theatre where Italians would be excluded. This would be impossible, they say, because the Italian artists would not perform. Their racial pride would quickly be aroused by the suggestion of any such such insulting arrangement. Nor would the self-respecting artists of any other race suffer such an indignity, according to these persons' views. Finally, they conclude, that it is only because the Negro a.ist is bankrupt in character and racial pride, that such a thing is possible at all. On the other hand, the actors can explain that they are working for a living under the direction of a white manager. They are essentially artists, and their minds must be free from the details of business arrangements.
They can cite further, that jim-crow performances have been staged by Duke Ellington and other Negro artists in Washington under similar circumstances. They can claim further, that the success of Negro artists from a financial point of view is dependent entirely upon the bookings of white managers. What can they do?
They can cite further, that jim-crow performances have been staged by Duke Ellington and other Negro artists in Washington under similar circumstances. They can claim further, that the success of Negro artists from a financial point of view is dependent entirely upon the bookings of white managers. What can they do? These two views certainly do not harmonize; but it is the opinion of The Washington Tribune that something can be done about it. The actors have our sympathy because they, like the general public, do not know the proper course of action under such circumstances. The public also has our sympathy because it will find it difficult to carry out a program of action, even after an appropriate one is formulated. However, it is certain that both actors and public should have definite ideas on this subject.

The public also has our sympathy because it will find it difficult to carry out a program of action, even after an appropriate one is formulated. However, it is certain that both actors and public should have definite ideas on this subject.
Granting the fact that white managers are responsible for the success of Negro artists and Negro productions, we feel that vigorous protests on the part of these artists would prevent jim-crow performances.
If these artists insist that they do not wish to perform in jim-crow theatres, we feel that the managers will arrange performances in other theatres, in Washington or elsewhere, that do not bar Negroes.
There are two reasons for this belief. One is that the managers can find such theatres in over half of this country. The other is that Negro artists are sufficiently in demand as box office attractions to warrant special consideration from their white managers. Smart men don't pass up big money-makers. The white managers will co-operate if the Negro artists insist.
On the other hand, the public must require the proper attitude from Negro artists. The race cannot sell out to artists who have no racial pride. Negro artists who persist in playing jim-crow performances should be socially ostracized. They should find no recognition among Negroes who possess an ounce of racial pride.

Negro artists who persist in playing jim-crow performances should be socially ostracized. They should find no recognition among Negroes who possess an ounce of racial pride. The fine cars, money-to-spend and the glamor of some artists who disregard the Negro public, will dazzle some people to the extent that they will forget moral issues. This group, as well as the offending artists should be marked for the disfavor of the Negro public. In conclusion, we might say for the benefit of those who are successful in passing the racial lines set up by the, National Theatre, that they will see hundreds of white people enjoying a performance depicting the Negro as white folk "like to believe" he is. They will see the superstition and ignorance that the accomplishments of our race belie.
It is a feeble attempt to look over the accomplishments of the Justs, the Carvers, the Woodsons, the Tolans, and the thousands of educated young people of our schools and colleges. Yes, to look over, back into pre-Civil War days, is the satisfaction they will get. They will see the "Green Pastures," parched by the fire of Washington's race prejudice—the "Green Pastures" turned brown.
What Do Negroes Really Want?
The exclusion of Negroes from the National Theatre and the efforts of some palm itching Negroes to secure a segregated or jim-crow performance for one night, brings to mind this question: Just what do Negroes really want? Is there a national urge for racial solidarity running through their breasts? Do they want to be a distinctive race, or do they want to be amalgamated and absorbed in the American melting pot? If we are to maintain our racial distinction and become a race within a nation, we must cultivate and demonstrate more race loyalty and more racial consciousness. As we now stand, race pride and race loyalty are woefully lacking. If we want to remain Negroic and demand our human rights as American

citizens, we must cultivate more solidarity, with a national purpose. Negroes in Washington, like the Negroes all over this nation, do not have a common purpose; we do not co-operate nor support things as a race or group. If we were united, loyal, and dependable, our economic status, our civic status and our political status would be far more advanced. This sting should go deep enough into our flesh to arouse our racial instinct, if there is any, and start us on a campaign of cooperative effort that will become nation-wide and prove a compelling example. If we could inspire the Negroes of this city with race pride we would not need a campaign "to trade where you can work."
The Cooking School
Echoes from the cooking school and home economics demonstrations held by The Washington Tribune for three weeks have shown that The Tribune has become a progressive institution in Washington. This second annual cooking school rendered such a type of service and touched so many homes that it warrants classification as an institution. The first prize, a modern gas cooking range, went into the home of a young married couple, where its value will be appreciated for years to come.

A Disgusted Patron
A "disgusted patron" writes to the Daily News of this city to ask— "What is suddenly wrong with the check or post office money order that comes through the mail—why does the National Theatre management refuse to accept such form of payment for reservations?" And he complains bitterly that people "must stand in lines like cattle, dependent on camp stools to rest their weary limbs and coffee to warm their chilled bodies, while they wait to do the management the favor of shoving their bills in at the box office for theatrical entertainment." Had the writer asked The Tribune we could have explained, but we will let the News do it—if it can
Federal Pay Cuts
Congressmen in holy horror at the suggestion of a pay cut for themselves, might do well to consider the plight of the already under-paid federal employees of the low pay groups whose salaries were cut by these same Congressmen to a point where these federal employees find it difficult to meet their obligations.
"Do not make Congress a rich man's club," says a Congressman. We wonder why some voice does not cry out in the wilderness of the lame duck session, saying, "Do not make federal employees a group of bankrupts."
Washington business needs a mass of citizens capable of meeting their obligations without abandoning a respectable standard of living. If Congressmen need a full salary to maintain a certain standard, how can they expect lower-salaried employees to get along on slashed salaries?
Congressmen belong to the higher-paid group of federal employees. If pay cuts are necessary, they should begin at the top.

Will We Get It?
The economic program for the Roosevelt administration, as outlined by Dr. Tugwell, a close adviser of the President-elect, starts with "the forgotten-man" as it should. While it is not a cure-all, the proposed plan, if attempted and placed in operation, will go about as far as the government can go in a short time to turn the tide of Coolidge and Hoover from letting the crumbs fall from the top instead of helping those at the bottom, who ultimately buy and use goods. The proposed plan in brief is as follows:

The proposed plan in brief is as follows:
Better distribution of wealth through higher income and inheritance taxes on the rich.
Direct hunger relief and revival of employment and business orders through a large public and semi-public works program based upon needed and economic improvements such as slum clearance.
Debtor relief through reduced interest rates and consumer relief by lowering utility rates.
Credit and construction inflation instead of currency inflation.
Balancing Federal operating budget with the aid of prohibition repeal and liquor revenue.
Farm relief, with the domestic allotment plan as an experiment.
Restoring foreign trade by general debt-tariff adjustment and by business with Russia.
Any man who can command the intelligent guidance represented in the above plan and has the courage, as President, to take the lead in its practical operation, deserves the support of every citizen and of both houses of Congress, so that prosperity may get underway to replace the existing chaotic economic conglomeration.
We are willing to accept this program and can promise our enthusiastic support of it for the benefit it promises to our country.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1933
Carter Woodson is the Re-embodiment of Marcus Garvey
But Dean Miller Thinks That Woodson "Entered Upon His Race Saving Career" When Too Old.
Marcus Garvey came and went as a dream that comes and goes in a night. He left behind him an ideal which so far transcends its own realization as to remind us of a shell deposited by a tidal wave on a height, which forthwith recedes and leaves no trace by which to account for its isolated elevation.
Marcus Garvey preached race self-respect and race sufficiency. In the sweep of his imagination, he would gather together the scattered fragments of African blood throughout the world and weld them into one mighty nation rivaling in power and splendor the proudest peoples of the earth. His means of accomplishment fell so far short of the scope of his imagination that his vision became ridiculous. He ventured to dream dreams no Negro ever dared to dream before.
The Nordic race is a kindly and generous jailer for the lesser breeds of men. They shut them up in racial confines and treat them kindly and generously so as to make them satisfied within the confines of their prison house. But there is unyielding insistence on the color bar which admonishes the darker varieties of the species: "so far shalt thou come and no farther." With a recklessness and intrepidity which amuses us by its amazing absurdity, Marcus Garvey dared ignore the racial barrier, until the iron rigor of the Saxon polity shut him up in his native Jamaica as in a prison house.
ALL MINORITY GROUP ZEALOTS
SUFFER A COMMON FATE
In every nation with suppressed minority groups, zealots will now and then arise who insist on taking up arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing them. They suffer a common fate. They are banished to a barren rock, as were Prometheus and Bonaparte, or crucified as were Jesus Christ and John Brown. But despite martyrdom zealotism still persists. Carter Woodson is the re-embodiment of the spirit of Marcus Garvey in moderate form. He too would develop in the Negro the spirit of self-respect and self-sufficiency. He lacks the daring, the temerity, and the sublime absurdity of the black zealot of Jamaica. Indeed the two are equally striking in their resemblances and contrasts.
Garvey was unschooled and his spirit untamed by culture. Woodson is school-bred and held in check by his Anglo-Saxon tutelage. Garvey was young, strong and brave when he launched his superhuman enterprise. Woodson remained in the prison house of Nordic constraint and control till the conservatism of age tends to hold his restless spirit in check. He waits till near sixty before assuming the vows of poverty and celibacy. Had he entered upon his race saving career twenty-five years ago with the fiery impulse of youth, there is no telling what impression he might have made.
FEEDING ON PHILANTHROPY
TAMES THE SPIRIT
Frederick Douglass used to say that when a man remains in slavery till he is twenty-one his spirit is quite well cowed. When one feeds for the early half of his life out of the hands of charity and philanthropy which the benevolent Nordic hands to the off-colored recipient to keep him satisfied and happy, he is apt to remain tame and complaisant for the balance of his days.
Or if he shows signs of becoming discontented and obstreperous, the benevolent and well-meaning philanthropist hands him additional crumbs of charity to appease his aroused spirit and troubled soul.
Woodson is a rare and queer genius. He does not conform to any prescribed formula. He takes the white philanthropists' good gifts but resists and resents the proscriptive policy which these good gifts are intended to maintain.
WOODSON APPROXIMATES
THE SPIRIT OF GANDHI
He may not go quite to the extent of Mahatma Gandhi, who at thirty-five grave up a lucrative and easy going career and made himself as a man of no estate in order that he might the more efficiently serve his people by identifying himself with them and sharing the hardships of their lot, but he approximates him more nearly than any highly cultivated Negro of my acquaintance. His race loyalty and unselfish devotion are no more to be questioned than the sacrifice of the Hindoo saint. A new book is already announced with the significant title, "The Mis-education of the Negro." The author would tear down the whole super-structure which white philanthropy has built up during the past sixty years and build anew on the basis of racial self-respecting manhood. We are almost as greatly astounded as we were with Garvey's dream of a Negro empire without means of building it.
WHENCE WILL COME THE MEANS OF RECONSTRUCTION?
Where will Dr. Woodson secure the means for his educational reconstruction? Will he look to the Negro himself as did Garvey for his fantastic scheme? Or will he expect to persuade philanthropy to finance his scheme for educating the Negro to escape from the prison house of race proscription on which foundation its whole fabric is built?
In this day of complaisance when our so-called radical agencies are satisfied to persuade the jailer to lessen his severities while keeping the race within prescribed limits, a Carter Woodson is indeed refreshing.
Garvey did not believe that the two races could set up independent housekeeping on the same soil, and therefore sought a distant continent as the seat of his enterprise. Woodson's vision does not yet range so far. But to what extent his philosophy will carry him is yet to be disclosed.
This age seems to have lost control over everything except birth—Cincinnati Union.
We Have Never Made an Actual Fight Against Segregation, Says Woodson

"One may become a musician or an actor, but it is much better to become a man."
By DR. CARTER G. WOODSON
Editor of the Journal of Negro
History
"Are you going to see "The Green Pastures'?" I was asked the other day by an admirer of Richard Harrison.
"No," I had to reply. "I have seen it in life, and it is to be at a theatre in Washington where Negroes, as a rule, are not allowed. Certainly you do not think that I am such a dunce as to go to a peanut gallery."
"But they are going to have special performances which Negroes may attend at certain hours," said this college-trained friend, "and since I have never seen it, I think I shall."
Thereupon I tried to explain to this otherwise Negro-equal-rights advocate that no self-respecting Negro will go to a theatre or any thing else under such conditions. I endeavored to show him that he is still a slave and that Garrison's and Lincoln's efforts in his behalf were in vain.
"Well, you know," said he, "what you say may be true, but Negroes have never been consistent in their fight on segregation."
I then had to correct him, for the Negroes of the United States have never made an actual fight on segregation. At their equal rights' meetings they have passed resolutions against caste; but before they could adjourn many of those attending rushed to the back door of the segregationists to profit materially by the new system inaugurated by the agencies of jim-crowing.
If these theatres shut their doors in our faces, as a rule, or send us up to their buzzard roosts when they do not need us, why should we so compromise ourselves as to accept this humiliation when they appeal to us? Only slaves do such things.'
By staying away from this performance we miss one good play. By going we sacrifice the only principle on which we can base a fight for a chance in the modern world. We thus barter away the only thing worth while in stimulating the progress and development of an oppressed people. We thereby sell our soul; and what shall it profit a man to gain the whole world and then lose his soul? At one of the meetings called to protest against this jim-crowism, the most of those present blamed the reform organizations for not persistently agitating against the exclusion of Negroes from the theatres. They make one feeble protest and then wait until some popular actor like Harrison or a singer like Hayes comes to town and then try to throw on the performer the onus of the jim-crowism when "he has to make his living this way."
Well, I do not know so much about this theory. I am sure that both Harrison and Hayes can make a living without appearing again before jim crow audiences. In this way they may not earn as much as they do by bowing to the agents of caste, but they can live without thus compromising, and, if they would do the right thing, the world would warm up to them with that enthusiasm which it has for the heroic.

Community Civics By ALBERT BROOKS
Civics is a study of community life. This series will deal especially with life in the civilized community; and will recognize the special problems confronting the Negro in the American community. The articles will attempt to show how the community trains the individual to take his place, along with other individuals, in the highly specialized community life of today.
The Individual
A comparison of the individual in a civilized community with one in a primitive community will start us in the right direction.
There are certain essential differences in the lives of these two individuals that are typical of two diametrically opposed sets of ideals of living. A consideration of the differences between the individual in the civilized and primitive communities will explain the progress of our modern community life and the backwardness of our primitive friends.
Jack of All Trades
The primitive man is independent. He does everything for himself. He is his own butcher, for he must provide his own meat. He is his own tailor, for he must make his own clothes. He is his own

The Individual
promising Negro artist you will not find a distinguished white actor in this country who would thus join in the humiliation of his own people. The white artist will not do such a thing because he has in him something which slavery has made all but impossible in the Negro. You may call it anything you like, but it is the thing that makes the white man feel that he is superior to these very popular Negro artists who thus compromise; and the white man of this order IS superior to such Negroes. One may become a musician or an actor, but it is much better to become a man.
OUR LEADERSHIP ON
WRONG TRACK
When you look at this situation you easily become convinced that Negro leadership has usually been on the wrong track. We have spent too much time abusing the white man because he will not permit us to come into the enjoyment of certain things, but we have practiced no attention to Negroes in the ranks who are preventing us from going forward to possess these things when they may be easily obtained by a forward movement of a united people. We need, then, to formulate a new program for the race.
The first thing necessary is to emancipate the Negro by emancipating his mind. To do this there should be started a campaign against the Negro jim crow agents. The old excuses, "You know, I have to make my living this way," and "I cannot help myself" must be discarded. If a Negro can not exist without discriminating against his own people, he must be put down as one of those against us, and he must be dealt with accordingly. They that are not for us are against us.
We must be consistent. We are not doing anything effective by calling together for protest porters who will not carry a Negro's baggage, barbers who will refuse to shave a Negro, and servants in hotels where a Negro is not allowed to stop. We are not going to get anywhere with those Negroes who from the back door of white churches and so-called social welfare organizations slip the Negro into the ghetto.
SLAVERY HAS DULLED OUR UNDERSTANDING
Consistency, however, is a jewel. The Negro mind has been enslaved so long that it very often seems to be incapable of seeing its own inconsistency. For example, the other day in New York City, Channing H. Tobias sued a white restaurant keeper because he would not serve him and his family. To be consistent Tobias should have sued also the Y.M.C.A. plants, which refuse to receive him as a guest, not only because he is a Negro but because he is co-operating with them in working out a program of the segregation of the races in the name of Gód. I seriously doubt, however, that Tobias has ever thought that he is suing this white man for doing the very thing that Tobias is doing himself. What effect will this have on the court when the attorney for the defendant points out these facts?
builder, for he must build his own home. Similarly, he must make his own weapons, cooking utensils, and countless other things he finds necessary to his existence.
He is largely dependent solely upon himself for what he needs. He is a jack of all trades. Incidentally, he is a master of none. Everything he makes is crude; and all of these primitive individuals, taken as a whole, present a picture of backwardness, ignorance and incompetence.
The civilized individual is dependent upon countless others for practically everything he needs. If we consider how many people make possible the-can of peas that we purchase from the grocer, we will understand what dependence really means in a civilized community.
The mother depends upon her child to run to the store or depends upon the grocer to deliver the package. She must depend upon the grocer to carry the article in stock. The grocer in turn must depend upon the wholesale grocer, the railway or other forms of conveyance, the cantery, the farmer and many others.
Wher we think of the metals that must go into the machinery and the can itself, we can realize the thousands of people who have some part in getting the can of peas from a quiet farm to our dinner tables.
While we are dependent on others for nearly everything we need, others are dependent on us for some definite contribution to the world's work. Individuals in the civilized community are interde-

HOW WILL IT END?
American," but can we secure the same accommodations in our travel that foreign countries will provide us with? And as for "Hire American," well, we just simply don't classify as Americans at all. Yet, we sleep!
We read that some governments are falling; others are staggering, and some writers would have us believe that our own government is floundering.
And through it all we learn by reading—and implication—that Negroes are sleeping. Some of our own writers, columnists and propagandists would make us believe that those Negroes who are not sleeping are knocking each other into unconsciousness in their attempt to prevent others from progressing.
However, there is much danger in these commercialized campaigns. They pave the way for retaliation; not only at home but abroad. Other groups adopt the same sort of tactics and soon our civilization—continents, nations, states, and local communities—will be divided according to propagandized groups.
Daily we read of propagandized campaigns being waged in/an effort to bolster American interests. These campaigns run the gamut of "Buy American"; "Travel American"; and "Hire American". In these campaigns is an opportunity for the Negro if he will wake up.
Already, we can begin to see such results. Governmental economies and changes are announced and put into effect for the ostensible benefit of the people, and the officials are accordingly applauded, until in the distance we see a big storm cloud approaching which we later analyze and discover to be the propagandized efforts of opposition interests who desire economy as long as some other group does the economizing.
Personally I do not believe in subsidized interests, but as long as they are the order of the day, we might as well take advantage of them. If we postpone our day of action until that perfect day arrives when all things will be considered purely on merit then we might as well continue our sleeping indefinitely.
In all of these apparent controversies, merit seems to be sidetracked, and it is every man for himself, and the Negroes—no longer chattels of the white race—must wake up, if they really are sleeping, and do some plugging of their own. Otherwise, it will hardly take a seer, a medium, or a tipster to answer the question: "How will it end?"
If any class can be considered as Americans, surely our race can. In many cases we are able and willing to "Buy American," but can we secure the same value for our money? We are willing to "Travel

Leaves from a Cynic's Notebook
By F. H. M. Murray
To the Editor of the Tribune:
I am writing to thank you for showing us around the Tribune office and to tell you how much we appreciate your kindness.
GET THE FACTS
The alleged jim crow case of Miss Weaver at the Ohio State University, which is treated in another column, has been before the public since last fall, and there was a case of similar sort the year before. But, as is usual in such cases, the reports sent out were and are not only incomplete but apparently not strictly accurate.
We have been working very hard on Negro history and we think that we have on our school room walls the best collection of Negro pictures in any school in Washington. We have the pictures of all the Negro senators and representatives, Lieutenant-Governor Pinchback, Frederick Douglass, colored judges and other famous Negroes. We have also the noted Negro educators and musicians.
As will be seen from the article, the statement of the facts by the president of the university differs in important respects from the release by the N.A.A.C.P., the Cleveland branch of which is now taking the matter to the courts.
We have also on our walls a great many pictures of Africans that are generally classed as Caucasians. We are learning to read the Negro newspapers regularly I am sending you a copy of a composition on "Why We Should Read the Negro Newspapers." Mr. Syphax, our teacher said that if all of our people knew how it would help their children in their reading they would have them read the Tribune as we do.
One important point not covered is whether or not any or all of the white girls refused to share with Miss Weaver one of the apartments used by the students in the practice course which she desired to take.
Of course the president's gratuitous fear that the colored and white girls would not get on together is the old Southern stuff as is his ridiculous suggestion that our people might object to such "close relationship," as if there could be any closer relationship than that of mistress and servant as practiced in the South.

WHY WE SHOULD READ THE
NEGRO NEWSPAPERS
But now that the matter is to be made a test case, it is hoped that our attorneys will not make the all-too-frequent botch of such cases by going into court to prove generalities, overlooking or ignoring certain important facts, or go in unprepared to prove the allegations of facts on which their case rests.
All Negroes should take the Negro newspapers because we learn more about our race than in the white papers. The white papers publish a very little about Negroes because most of their subscribers are white and they want to read about their own people. We are encouraged by reading the Negro newspapers because when we see what our great people have done we think we can do the same. A fine Negro newspaper published here is the Washington Tribune
Above all they should be on guard against the colored "leaders" who do not want to go "where they are not wanted."
According to the N.A.A.C.P. release, the attorneys seem to be already off on the wrong foot.

Those persons who are inclined to doubt the accuracy of the statements of Jesse Crawford—whose story.was related in last week's issue—that he was framed out of spite and for other reasons, and sent to the chain gang in Georgia, may find it easier to believe him by noting some statements by General Pelham Glassford, former chief of police of this city, in a series of articles in the Daily News on conditions he observed recently on a tour through the South studying the problem of the thousands of wandering boys (mostly white). After referring to the harsh laws which penalize people for trifles, he says:
February 6, 1933.
To the Tribune:
I have read with much interest your honorable mention of our work in the editorial column of your paper. I appreciate beyond my power to express it the striking appeal which you have made to the public for the financial support of this organization. I am sure that it will do much good to stimulate interest in the prosecution of this long neglected work that the Negro race may not become a negligible factor in the thought of the world.
"And then there is always the chance that the local jail or chain gang may not be full up, and the local sheriff or police official not averse to a little profit."
C. G. Woodson Director.
The white boys do not usually get farther than the jail where they are fed for about five cents a meal while the sheriff draws sixty-five cents a day for their keep. The fate of the colored can well be imagined.
pendent upon one another, and each must be a specialist in his own line. He must be able to serve, to compete; or fall by the way, a parasite upon the community.
As for Crawford, even were he guilty of all the crimes alleged and the escapes confessed, one day and one night on a Georgia chain gang would be sufficient punishment to explain all.
The community prepares citizens along two lines. First, they receive the general training that prepares the individual for good citizenship; and then they receive the special training that is necessary for a life's work.

Valentine Parties Popular This Year
"Dan Cupid is to be the guest of honor at innumerable bridge parties, luncheons and dinners this week," states an official of the Breyer Ice Cream Company.
"Never before has our hostess department been so flooded with requests for suggestions as to Valentine menus and decorations," he says. "Fortunately, in anticipation of this unusual interest in the patron saint of lovers, our hostesses have devised a number of new and attractive Valentine party plans, which they are outlining to those interested, without any charge of course.
"Our ice cream department, too, has rather outdone itself this year. For instance they are offering a heart-shaped ice cream cake, in various flavors and colors and large enough to serve 8 or 10 persons. There is also a special brick of vanilla ice cream and raspberry ice with a heart-shaped center. And there are individual fancy forms in all sorts of appropriate shapes, cupids, hearts, doves engagement rings, etc.
"But in preparing for Valentine's we are not overlooking another celebration that will soon be here. For Washington's birthday we have created a very realistic log (a cherry tree log, of course) made of vanilla and chocolate ice cream and cherry custard, sufficient for 8 or 10 persons. Other novelties are a figure of George Washington himself large enough for 10 or 12 servings, and a number of individual molds in various patriotic designs."
On account of the extra time required to make these specialties, Breyer dealers and the Breyer Ice Cream Company are requesting that orders be given at least 24 hours in advance.

The scene was a combination kitchen and dining room of a frame cottage in Georgia at the time shortly after the Civil War.

RACE PRIDE
Just what constitutes race pride?
Is it a desire to mingle with white
people or is it the ability to be
satisfied with your own people?
T have been accused of being an
(“Uncle Tom” because I disagree
with the majority of people who
‘want to see “Green Pastures” in a
| white theatre and live in a white
neighborhood and marry a white
person and a thousand and one
other things,
We must remember that the Na-
tional Theatre was built by and
for white people, and it seems to
me that no self-respecting wee
would not want to go places where
he knows he is not wanted. I real-
ize that there is no law against it
but I also realize that the laws
are made by and for the benefit of
white people. There is a remedy
but we must start at the beginning
to find it.
What better example could we
want than that of the Jews of to-
day? True they are white but
they have been ersecuted since
before 1,000 B.C., and today they
contre] one thing which recognizes
no master and makes no distine-
tion—MONEY.
How did they do it? Did you
ever hear a Jew complain about
being looked down upon or being
ridiculed by white Americans (as
they are) or mention in any way
the many things said about him
and done to him by the K.K.K. or
any other organization?
‘They (the Jews) have worked
while we have complained and the
result is that they have been able
to buy their protection in the form
of a representation on nearly every
legislative body in the country,
What have we done? First of
all, as a group, we are too loud.
It is a foregone conclusion that
white Americans will sell their
very souls for money. This con-
dition seems to have taken root
in other countries as well. So much
so in fact, that treatjes between
nations have become mere scraps
of paper. “Honor” is a word in
the dictionary,
Since such iz the case why should
we think that because there hap-
pens to be a piece of paper called
the Constitution (written by. and
for ‘white people) it ‘means any-
thing to us? We are the ‘only
group of people in the world who
will take a promise and_ believe
in it after seeing it broken any
number of times,
In the south, Jewish children-are
forced to sit together in no In
the North and West they do it
voluntarily. They grow up to.
gether, marry within their race and
prosper together. What better ex-
ample could we want?
The future of the race is is our
hands and I hope we will be for-
tuhate and intelligent .enough ‘to
fight fire with fire. It’s the only
way.

Molded Desserts and Salads That Are Easier to Make
Now that there is a fruit-flavored gelatin on the market that can be made without even the bother of "putting the kettle on," molded desserts and salads are more popular than ever. By simply dissolving the gelatin in warm water, right from the tap, if you like, you can have a smart, inexpensive dessert or salad ready to serve in about two hours. The warm water need only be slightly hotter than lukewarm.
Here are four new treats worth trying:

HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Did you know that there are three types of baking powder—combination, phosphate, and tartrate, and that food experts have discovered that for best results these different types should be used in different amounts? Total consumption of the combination type is nearly twice that of either the phosphate or tartrate type, and is almost half of the total used.
"Coconut is rich in natural oils, and possesses the important quality of remaining sweet and free from rancidity in any climate," claims Lily Hoxworth Wallace, domestic science editor of Woman's World. If economy is an object, states Mrs. Wallace, one may slightly reduce the amount of shortening called for in a recipe where a large amount of coconut is used in the preparation of a cake or a dessert.
A real "Believe It or Not" product is quick-cooking tapioca. A small quantity of it added to a souffle, will, during baking absorb and hold enough of the moisture as the mixture pushes higher and higher, to keep it deliciously moist, fluffy, and, light...a little added to a fruit pie will keep the juice in the pie, and out of the oven...with the help of this resourceful ingredient you can even make ice cream without turning a freezer-ice cream with a rich, velvet-smooth texture.
Have you ever tried fruit-flavored gelatin creams? They have a smooth velvety texture and are made with much less cream than is usually required in this type of dessert—a point to consider these days! Most of these delicious dishes are made as follows: chill dissolved fruit-flavored gelatin until cold and syrupy; whip cream until thick and shiny but not stiff and dull. Combine.

Introduction of Negroes into Big Leagues Would Boost Sport
Heywood Broun Says if Paul Robeson is Good Enough to Play for Rutgers, There Is No Reason to Bar Colored from Red Sox
The introduction of Negro ball players into the major baseball leagues would do a great deal to revivify interest in the sport, says Heywood Broun, well known columnist.
Mr. Broun's statement concerning the matter appeared in the Scripps-Howard newspapers this week. He said:
"I went to the dinner of the Baseball Writers Association the other night and made a suggestion which met with no overwhelming roar of approval. But it is still a good suggestion.
silly to say that they cannot participate in a game between the Chicago White Sox and the St. Louis Browns.
"I am told by some of my friends among the experts that it couldn't be done. They say some of the players would object. I would be all for another Brotherhood enterprise, but as things stand now I was of the opinion that ball players object to many things which still take place with a high degree of regularity. Players object to being fined and suspended. Ever so many players objected to having
"Possibly it might be held that the notion which I introduced was not relevant to the proceedings of the evening. The sports reviewers were gathered together to honor John J. McGraw as one who graced the game for many years and added to its picturesqueness."
After discussing some of the personal peculiarities of Manager McGraw and some other matters, he went on:
"But to get back to McGraw and my excellent and coolly received suggestion. Every speaker mentioned the fact that McGraw had color. He certainly did. He was a man who could grow passionate about practice games. He could even fight about funges. I have few more exciting memories of the world of sport than the picture of McGraw advancing menacingly upon an umpire. It was even dramatic when he advanced slowly away from the umpire after sentence of banishment had been passed.
"Oh, yes, McGraw had color, and so did many of the other oldtimers, not forgetting some of the men who are still in active service. But if the big league magnates want color, why don't they seek it among the semi-professional Negro teams of New York, Chichago, and the other large cities of America? I can see no reason why Negroes should not come into the National and American Leagues."
"I have heard that some members of the race possess a high talent for the game. As things stand I believe there is no set rule barring Negroes from the ball clubs. It is merely a tacit agreement, or possibly custom.
Few Are Bootlegged
"I am informed that in the distant past a few Negroes did play in organized baseball. Of course, even in recent years some have been bootlegged into the charmed circle, but they were called Portuguese or Mexican or Hawaiian. I have even suspected one or two of the Indians.
"Why, in the name of fair play and gate receipts, should professional baseball be so exclusive? If a Paul Robeson is good enough to play football for Rutgers and win a place on the mythical All-American eleven I can't be convinced that no Negro is fit to be utility outfielder for the Boston Red Sox. There were a number of superb Negro athletes on the American Olympic track team. Indeed, Eddie Tolan, the sprint champion, was almost a team in himself.
Would Help Game
"If Negroes are called upon to bear the brunt of competition when America meets the world in an international meet it seems a little
silly to say that they cannot participate in a game between the Chicago White Sox and the St. Louis Browns.
"I am told by some of my friends among the experts that it couldn't be done. They say some of the players would object. I would be all for another Brotherhood enterprise, but as things stand now I was of the opinion that ball players object to many things which still take place with a high degree of regularity. Players object to being fined and suspended. Ever so many players objected to having their salaries cut for the season of 1933, and yet there seems to be ample reason to believe that their salaries will be cut just the same.
"The introduction of a few star Negro ball players would do a great deal to revivify interest in the big leagues. It would attract a number of colored rooters. And it would be a fair and square thing. If baseball is really the national game let the club owners go out and prove it."

Morris Brown Cagers Win 33rd Court Game
By Milton L. Randolph
ATLANTA, Ga.-The purple
cagers of Morris Brown College
tripped the Clarke University Pan-

Swann's Goal Wins 23-21 Victory for Bordentown
ATLANTIC CITY—The Wildcats of the Bordentown School took a close and thrilling game from the Atlantic City "Y" Sea Gulls Saturday night for the seventh straight win of the undefeated M.A.A. champions. A last minute basket by Captain Swann gave the schoolboys a 23-21 win after trailing for most of the game. After getting off to a four point lead the Wildcats weakened under the bombardment of Aldrich and Gater, trailing at half time. 7-9.
It was Bordentown's second victory this year against her perennial rival for Jersey supremacy, and gave her a 9-7 edge for the 8 years of friendly rivalry. The Williams Giants slapped the faces of the Bordentown Cubs for the second time this season, finding their opponents a foe to be respected. Ashby, mite guard, rang up seventeen of his team's points to lead the way to a 34-25 victory.
PLAINFIELD STOPS
BORDENTOWN. 35-26
BORDENTOWN, N. J.—After running wild against Cheyney Teachers' College for a 62-22 score and chalking up their eighth straight win of the season, the Bordentown School five met their season's first defeat at the hands of the Y team of Plainfield, N.J., 35-26 Saturday.
Smarting under a defeat handed by the Wildcats earlier in the season, the North Jersey five presented an aggressive line-up that took advantage of every opening given them. The Bordentown outfit, on the other hand, showed poor shooting form, missing innumerable easy chances, trailing at halftime, 12-10
With three minutes to go the score was tied, but Russ, Chandler, and Alexander went on a spree for Plainsfield and ran up a commanding lead as the whistle blew. The previous night the Wildcats met an easy prey in Cheyney. The Pennsy teachers showed the need of competition as the smoother Jerseyites out-passed and out shot them. The "Green Aces" of Plainfield Y.W.C.A., found the Ironside Girls weak for the second time this season. An even contest all the way through found Bordentown leading by one point with less than a minute to go, but an overhead shot by Miss Pittard in the closing seconds gave the Y lassies a hard-won victory.

Bowieites Surprise Downingtown Boys
DOWNINGTOWN, Pa.—After the Downingtown Industrial School girls had rung up their 19th straight triumph by a 57-9 win over the Bowie Normal School sexet, the Teachers came back in the boys' engagement to overturn the dope and romp off with the long end of a 26-23 score. This enabled them to gain an even break on the season's play, the Industrials having previously won on the Bowie floor.
The inexperienced Bowie lassies were hopelessly outclassed against the prep school first string guards they could not score a field goal, getting only three from the subs.
Singletary on the other hand set a new local scoring record with 29 points, though she missed 10 out of 13 foul tries.
Latinme in one quarter of play notched 16 tallies.

Ky. State Given Triple Defeat by Knoxville
FRANKFORT, Ky. — Knoxville College basketball team provided one of the season's biggest upsets by handing the Kentucky State College a triple beating here last week.
The Knoxville team won, 38 to 26, Friday; 40-26 on Saturday; and on Sunday by a 49-35 score.
Coupling the fact that the Kentuckians had just defeated Fick and West Virginia, with the absence of Knoxville's versatile star, Leon Render, it was thought that Knoxville would prove an easy mark for Kentucky State.
But matters took on on a different aspect when the K. Ceans cut loose with their deceptive offense and almost impregnable defense. Time after time Edwards, Cary, Hubbard, Claytor and Williams eluded the Kentucky defense. Knoxville's lead was never threatened.

TELLS OF PLOT TO HIDE OTHERS IN ILSLEY MURDER
White Investigator Says Some One is Being Shielded
BOSTON, Mass.—Helen Boardman, white, investigator for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, testified, Tuesday, that residents of Middleburg, Virginia, and vicinity had told her that they believed some one was being "covered up" in connection with the slaying of Mrs. Agnes Boeing Ilesy, and her maid, Mrs. Nina Buckner, both white, who were murdered a year ago.
She said one person had told her he believed influential people were so anxious to shield one that they would be glad to have George Crawford, colored, who is fighting extradition here, convicted.
She said Roy Seaton, a justice of peace at Middleburg, had told her he felt some one was being protected and that because of his attitude he had received threats.
Seaton and other prominent citizens of the vicinity, she said, had expressed the opinion that Crawford would unquestionably be convicted if he were brought to trial in Virginia.
She described conversations with other residents of Middleburg in which they expressed the belief that wealthy persons were interested in protecting some one and that Crawford might be made the victim of punishment in order to protect the person. She named this person and said he was a known drug addict, who was well known to the victims of the slaving.
Crawford Claims Alibi
Testimony was designed to show that Crawford might not obtain a fair trial in Virginia and that he was in Boston at the time of the double slaying. Mrs. Ilesy and her maid weer slain January 13, 1932. Seven Boston colored men testified that Crawford was in Boston late in 1931 and 1932 and three of them positively placed Crawford in this city during January, at or about the time the two women were beaten to death in a cottage on Mrs. Ilesy's Middleburg estate.
Guilty in Aid Case, Man Gets 60 Days
Convicted on a charge of obtaining money from the Emergency Relief Division of the Board of Public Welfare through false pretenses, William Howard, was sentenced to serve 60 days in jail by Judge Gus Schuldnt in the police court last week.

The committee has its headquarters at Mott School, but will move to the new Cardozo High building at Ninth Street and Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest, as soon as that building is occupied.
Mrs. Chandler is trying to render all the service possible to the needy pupils through the student aid committee in each school. She is trying to perfect the organization so as to have an aid in each school.
This organization furnishes shoes and clothes as well as food. The articles are distributed through the headquarters. The food is paid for from profits of the various school cafeterias. The committee conducts two bundle days each school year for donations of shoes and clothing.
ATTEMPT TO BAR CHILDREN FROM 'GREEN PASTURES'
Manager of the Play Says None are Within the Prohibited Class
A concerted action on the part of a group of persons who are fighting against the appearance of "The Green Pastures" at the National Theatre, if Negroes are barred from seeing the performances there, consulted the Child Labor Department at Franklin School concerning the use of children as actors in the cast of the much-heraided show. It was hoped that children might be kept out of the scenes in which they are scheduled to appear. This, of course, would detract from the effectiveness of the presentation. It was known that the Child Labor Department stopped the use of child actors previously in Washington. Sunshine Sammy was stopped. The Whitman Sisters were not allowed to use child actors in one of their presentations of recent years.
Mrs. Fay L. Bently, in charge of the department, stated that she had had a conference with Mr. Fields, manager of the play, and that he informed her that there are no children under fourteen in the east.
She stated that the law protests all children under fourteen from work in the District, but if there are no children under fourteen in the cast, the department will not interfere with the performance.

Y. M. C. A. HONORS THE LATE JULIUS ROSENWALD
Emmett J. Scott, Speaker, Knew Philanthropist Twenty-two Years
"Rosenwald: the Man," was the subject of an address delivered by Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary of Howard University and a member of the national council of the Y.M.C.A., at memorial services held in honor of Julius Rosenwald at the Twelfth Street Branch Y.M.C.A., Sunday. Dr. Scott, who was secretary to the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, knew Rosenwald, the great philanthropist, personally, having first become associated with him while at Tuskegee Institute. The association covered a period of some 22 years.
Dr. Scott pointed out that Rosenwald first began to serve humanity when he became interested in the Negro. This interest he never lost. Rosenwald, through his gifts established over 5,000 schools for Negroes in over 1,000 counties of Southern states, costing over $30,000,000, giving employment to over 15,000 teachers. Fifteen Y.M.C.A. buildings were established through Rosenwald funds and two Y.W.C.A. plants.
Other participants in the services were Maj. Campbell C. Johnson, executive secretary of the Twelfth Street institution, who gave introductory remarks; the Rev. W. H. Thomas, invocation; the Rev. A. A. Birch, benediction; the Armstrong High School Glee Club, and Vincent Frazier, who gave a vocal solo. The Rev. A. A. F. Elmes, pastor of People's Congregational Church presided.
The program was arranged by the Julius Rosenwald Memorial Committee, comprising the Rev. A. F. Elmes, chairman; Eugene Davidson, H. G. Atwood, Dr. W. O. Claytor, Mai. Campbell Johnson, and Tecumseh Bradshaw.

Second Accomplice in the Crime Captured in Small
Washington detectives brought back here, Saturday, Joseph Goodman, 27, of Baltimore, from Accomac, Va., wanted in connection with the brutal murder of William Simms, 65-year-old night watchman at the Dickey Brothers feed store, Bennings Road, Northeast, who was killed less than three weeks ago.
Goodman was arrested in the Virginia town when he allegedly attempted to break into a house there. Circulars sent out by local police with descriptions of the wanted man proved instrumental in his identification.
George M Pittman, indicted two weeks ago by a coroner's inquest for the murder of Simms, named Goodman as his associate in the crime. He alleged that Goodman struck and shot the watchman prior to robbing the safe from which they got about $40.
The District grand jury on Saturday charged both men with first degree murder in connection with the slaying. Pittman was arrested by a railroad detective several hours after the crime was committed.

Plans Made to Serve Children in Elementary Schools with Lunch
Menu of Milk and Crackers to Be Given Pupils of District Public Schools at Mid-Morning Recess
Plans to supply elementary public school children in Washington with milk and crackers at the morning recess were completed following a conference in the office of Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent of schools, Monday morning.
particularly those who are reported to come to school without breakfast, the conference saw no way of meeting the expense of setting up cooking facilities to take care of these pupils.

Banneker Recreation Center Reports Activities $12.097 Paid
Capital News Service
Early in September under the supervision of Mrs. Gabrielle Pelham, general secretary, Colored Community Center Department of the Public Schools, a Red Cross sewing room was established at the Banneker Recreation Center, Eighth and Euclid Streets, Northwest.
From September 15 to February on tickets issued to them by the Emergency Relief, 2,039 women earned and were paid a sum in excess of $12,000 for sewing for the Red Cross.
In a report to Mr. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of schools, Mrs. Pelham outlines the activities in the sewing rooms of the Banneker Center as follows:
"When in early September I was asked if I could arrange to accommodate groups of women sent by the Emergency Relief to do sewing for the Red Cross, I was happy to answer 'yes', and state that this would be possible at the Banneker Recreation Center.
"A small sewing group had been organized, which met one night a week and had the use of one machine. The Red Cross sent several sewing machines and a few others were borrowed, totaling 12 machines. On September 12, the first women arrived.
"On tickets issued by the Emergency Relief: in September, 19 women earned $185.70; in October, 84 women earned $523.60; in November, 300 women earned $2.124.50; in December, 787 women earned $4,615.60; in January, 849 women earned $4,647.30. Total, $12,097.90."
"The women have organized a Harriet Tubman Emergency Relief Red Cross Sewing Club, and have adopted a short constitution. They are pledged to pay a fee of five cents a month which is to accrue in the bank and not be drawn on until next winter. They have committees in each section of the city working on programs to be given in churches, the proceeds from which will be added to the bank fund.
"There are few outlets for colored women's employment, so when women are sent who can clean better than they can sew, they wash windows, sweep, mop floors, and are set to do the things they can do. This relieves the congestion in the sewing rooms.
"At Christmas time through the gifts of two theatres, a fire company, and several individuals, 300 children of these Emergency Relief women were entertained at Carnet-Patterson Junior High School auditorium with a program, and in the cafeteria with games and candy in large stockings."
Two Howard Grads Pass North Carolina Bar
Curtis Todd and Charles Wesley
Williamson, members of the Howard University law class 1932, have just received word that they passed the North Carolina bar examination held last month.
particularly those who are reported to come to school without breakfast, the conference saw no way of meeting the expense of setting up cooking facilities to take care of these pupils.
To Care for Needy Families
However, it was decided to recommend to the board of education that cooking facilities now in some schools, be made available to the welfare agencies and other groups for distribution to needy pupils.
It was also decided that the committee keep in constant contact with existing private and public welfare agencies to prevent duplication of effort.
Dr. Joseph A. Murphy, chief medical and sanitary inspector of local public schools, who attended the conference, expressed the opinion that the milk and cracker lunch provided children with the largest amount of nutrition possible in present conditions.
First Assistant Superintendent G. C. Wilkinson, of the colored schools attended the conference.
D. C. BASKETBALL TEAM IN ACCIDENT EN ROUTE TO GAME
Trio of Pleasant Plainsmen Injured When Car Turns Over Near Warrenton
En route to Harrisonburg, Va. early Tuesday evening, three members of the Pleasant Plains basketball team were injured, one seriously, when the car in which they were passengers was struck and overturned. Norman (Jelly) Jackson, the fourth member in the machine and star forward on the team, escaped uninjured.
Josh Barnes, veteran center of the team, was the most seriously injured, suffering deep lacerations of the scapia and a probable fracture of the skull. Barnes and the other two members of the team, Johnny Haywood and Edward Jones who sustained slight injuries, were treated at a Warrenton, Va., hospital, and later returned to the city. Physicians took several X-rays of Barnes's wounds to determine whether any bones were fractured. The accident occurred in Gainesville, Va., four miles this side of Warrenton. According to Jones, driver of the machine, the car swerved when passing through a muddy section in the road and another machine, driven by a white driver, hit the left rear side, knocking the car over into a ditch. Barnes was apparently thrown out of the front door and the machine crushed his head.
Haywood sustained injuries and shock, while Jones received a slight laceration of the scalp and shock. The men were taken to Warrenton in an automobile driven by Maurice (Butter) Hill, another member of the team. Hill, accompanied by Edward Underdown, manager of the aggation, was riding in the front of the car, driven by Jones. The machine was damaged badly.
Game Called Off
After the accident, Manager Underdown telegraphed the team at Harrisonburg and the game was called off.

MICHAUX ACTS AS MESSENGER OF DEATH
Relays Message to Father En route South, of the Death of Daughter
Elder Lightfoot S. Michaux, pastor of the Seventh Street Tabernacle, commonly called the Church of God, and popular radio evangelist, tells of an incident this week that was a result of his broadcasting.
Elder Michaux asserts that on Monday night of this week a long distance call came to his church from Delaware. A voice explained that a Mr. Hopkins was on his way to Florida. Being an inveterate listener to the elder's services, Mr. Hopkins had planned to stop off at the Seventh Street tabernacle on his way South.
The point of the call was to inform the elder that Mr. Hopkins's daughter had died just after he had left home, and asked the Rev. Mr. Michaux to inform Mr. Hopkins of the death in case he came to the tabernacle.
In the middle of his service on Tuesday morning, the elder asked whether a Mr. Hopkins was in the house. He was. And he started back to Delaware immediately after the offering.
It will be remembered that the Rev. Mr. Michaux received wide publicity when he described an automobile headed for the South with a baby and suspicious-looking adults in it, during the Lindberg baby kidnapping excitement.

PUPILS
NEGROES TO BE IN THE INAUGURAL PARADE
Howard R.O.T.C. and High School Cadets in First Division
Official statements, issued from the special inaugural committee's office in the Evans building, indicate that our group will participate in almost every major phase of the affair. In the parade, which moves after the oath taking ceremony, there will be representatives of our race in at least three of the four divisions. Although it had been originally planned that the affair would be more or less of a local nature, it has been decided to admit out-of-town organizations and quasi-military groups to march in the parade.
If plans under way materialize, there will be in the parade our own Baltimore and New York National Guard units. They, together with the R.O.T.C. from Howard University, and the cadets from Cardozo, Armstrong and Dunbar High Schools will march in the first division.
The second division will embrace the governors of various states and their staffs. The third division will consist of more military units, such as C.M.T.C., platoons of Army, Navy, and Marine Corps reserves, while the fourth division will consist of patriotic, fraternal, and civic organizations. Application to march in the parade must be referred to the inaugural committee representative in the respective cities and states. It is virtually certain that the number of participants will have to be reduced below the desired strength in order to keep the parade within certain space and time limits.

Washington at Random by George T. Waugh
CONGRATS
Bravo! Hurrrah! and all that sort of thing, I am being talked about since my last column. Gee, it's tough to be famous, especially when one's head stands a chance of a good beating by some overgrown unruly. I think I'll have to change my U Street haunts and do the back streets from now on, because every time I pass an alley I wax panicky, (You know bricks may have wings). If you should pass me on the street with a blackened orb—just take it for granted that I walked into a door, and, what else could I walk into? Well, that's my little red school-house.
So, for the benefit of my public (hee-haw) I'll take my curtain bow. Please don't spoil my act by throwing wreaths of garlic, for after all, garlic is good for other things—so are eggs, when fresh.
BLOOD AND THUNDER
Thursday night at the Little Savoy Club, at Seventh and S Streets—a gay gathering. Sundry habitants of the place sit around the tables that line the walls. Blue smoke, mingled with the smell of cheap perfumes and rotten gin, hang over the room like a pall, and the effect of too many colored lights make grotesque shapes of the people there.
At a battered, tuneless piano a bantam species of male plums with a devil-may-care nonchalence. Trap drums clash, a banjo strums—music, fast, slow, faster, very slow—and upon the floor couples drag, locked in each other's embrace. Women, painted, overdone in long dresses, cling tenaciously to rowdy gigolo necks, swaying to the jungle rhythm. The music stops and couples amble back to become once more lurking shadows along the wall. Then—
Two burly cops enter. There is a great emptying of glasses and shuffling of bottles among the tables, but the coppers pay this no mind; instead they sprawl in chairs at the back of the hall and like two gawky truants get comfortable to watch the floor show.
The orchestra gives a cue and four buxom girls in faded, tawdry and scanty costumes skip out and toss a rumba that would knock Hawai's best hootch dancers for a row of empties. In the small spotlighted space a lanky dusty lad in waiter's garb and spats buck dances, well, but noisy as a man shoveling coal (which reminds me). Three more little girls mimic the Boswell tribe—to me a good imitation.
A warbling bath-tub tenor and an all-to-mellow soprano began to do a number, but this is interrupted by a fight over in the corner. A woman screams—somebody yells; "Throw him out," and there is a grand scramble for the nearest exit. The house is soon brought to order and a little upstart monikered "Reds" begins to chirp in a thrilling voice, "You're Telling Me."
THE MORNING AFTER
Time: 4 a.m. The early morning air is an invigorating tonic that brushes away the staleness of the night before the unholy quietness is disturbed by the clatter of horses' hoofs, the clanking of milk bottles as the milk man dashes from doorstep to doorstep on his rounds. The staccato ring of hard heel plates resound upon the deserted pavements as some belated pedestrial hies homeward. Houses and shops, that during the day are bustling with life, are now sunk deep in lethargic slumber. All is quiet.
At the luncheonette a few straggling inebriates lounge counterwise, drinking tall glasses of iced buttermilk (an excellent dose for hangovers). Damask - cheeked, sleepy-eyed waitresses stand by with a detached air.
A peep into a nite club—the place is in the process of undressing for the day. The orchestra has long since folded up, chairs are piled high atop tables, and only a few parties remain. Their tables are littered with empty and half empty glasses, their laughter rings boisterously, yet a trifle hollow and mocking. Vitriolic epithets are passed as the flunky brings the check—the vulgar performance of a bunch of ofays having a good time. On the outside, taxis cruising around for a twenty-cent fare. At Eighth Street two drunks are seen nading a lamp-post with that timeworn ditty, "Sweet Adelaine."

BROTHERHOOD OF MAN ADVOCATED BY VIRGINIAN
Thomas Lomax Hunter, Columist of Richmond Times-Dispatch, Talks
RICHMOND, Va. (CNS)—The Times Dispatch, a daily newspaper in Richmond, Va., has a columnist, Thomas Lomax Hunter, who believes in "The Brotherhood of Man" and preaches that doctrine. Recently he addressed the brotherhood of the Second Baptist Church in this city and declared that the man who does unto others as he would have others do by him will give his brother no offense.
Mr. Hunter defined the meaning of the word brotherhood, as he believes in it, and outlined the qualities necessary to a congenial association between two peoples. No other race has displayed such a genius for accommodating itself to strange surroundings, the speaker declared.
Mr. Hunter's address, in part follows:
"I believe in the universal brotherhood of man
"I am too fraternal to join fraternities. Most fraternities are exclusive rather than inclusive. A man need not know certain grips and pass words to be my brother. It is enough that he is a fellow-traveller with me on this journey which we call life.
"What I object to in patriotism as a virtue is that it singles out one country to love, and manifests that love by looking at all other countries with jealousy and suspicion.
Objects to Racial Pride
"What I object to in racial pride is that it is not generally content to cherish the virtues of its own race, but generally looks with hostility at other races.
"The effort of the colored man to find a place for himself inside the white man's rather jealous civilization has immensely interested me.
"I have looked on that effort with the keenest sympathy and interest.
"The colored man has accomplished a miraculous success in an almost impossible situation. No other race has such a genius for compromise and accommodation.
"You have adopted the white man's manners, morals and religion. The great majority of your race in its native continent of Africa have become followers of Allah, but Mohammedanism is just another Syrian religion and springs from that race of Semitic nomads which gave the world three of its great religions.
"In adopting the Christian religion you accept the doctrine of
the-brotherhood of man founded on the fatherhood of God.
Man's Social Duty
"The most comprehensive statement of man's social duty is contained in what we call the Golden Rule. The man who do unto others as he would have others do by him will give his brother no offense.
"But this willingness to give one's approval to one's neighbor must be accompanied with no requirement of conformity. I must not recognize as my neighbor only those people who have my politics, my religion, my color, or my race.
"The itch to make all men in one's own image is the hall-mark of the anti-social man. Such a man loves only himself or the image of himself. From such men are recruited the whole pestilent brood that goes about persecuting and torturing men to make them just like the reformer...
"I have often been struck with the fine natural tolerance of your race. Your religion is not filled with the rancor of petty doctrinal differences. I have always found you willing to live and let live. You have honored me with an invitation to speak to your brotherhood without asking me to submit my religious beliefs to any board of theological censors. I have spoken to Catholics, Jews and Unitarians, but this is the first invitation I have had to address a Protestant congregation. I am pleased but not surprised that it has come from my colored brothers.
"The moral as well as the civic importance of the work you are doing is hard to exaggerate. The principles you are teaching, the spirit you are inculcating, help materially to make Richmond a better and safer city."

HOWARD U. HOLDS MEMORIAL FOR COOLIDGE
The Rev. Allen Stockdale Pastor of His Church Principal Speaker
Speaking on the life of former President Calvin Coolidge in the memorial services of Howard University here Monday, the Rev. Allen A. Stockdale, pastor of the First Congregational Church, of which the late President and Mrs. Coolidge were members during their residence in Washington, called attention to the silence of the Vermont hills as reflected in the character of the former President.
"The obscurity of his birth place, like that of Abraham Lincoln," continued the speaker, "reveals the fact that the providence of God has a way of discovering a soul that is great, no matter where it may be."
"Do the day's work," and "Be brief," were cited as the crux of the philosophy of the former President.
Among the numerous quotations of the forrer President cited by the speaker were: "The still small voice of moral law is greater than the might of kings," and "the great aim of America is protection of the individual, it matters not with what power the individual is assailed."
"Is there any wonder," said Dr. Stockdale, "that any person with such convictions would be interested in Howard University?"
Coolidge Helped Howard
In introducing the speaker, President Mordecai W. Johnson stated that two of the most fundamental and constructive steps ever made in behalf of Howard University and Negro education were taken during the administration and President Coolidge.
One of these was the enactment of Federal legislation authorizing annual Congressional appropriations to aid in the construction, development, and maintenance of the university; and the other a conference of the legislative and executive officers, inspired by the leadership of President Coolidge, which reflected upon the relationship, duties, and plans of the federal government in a program for the development of the university. The early history of the university, as associated with the First Congregational Church was recalled by the university president, who stated that the ideals and traditions of the church were exemplified in its present pastor.
The Rev. D. Butler Pratt, dean of the School of Religion of Howard University, offered the invocation and benediction. "Lead Kindly Light" was sung by the university glee club and congregation. "Going Home," from Dvorak's "New World Symphony," a favorite of the former president, was sung as a trio by Miss Ethyl B. Wise, Mrs. Ruth Logan, and Miss Louise Burge.
Students showed appreciation both for the late President and the guest speaker by their large attendance, Andrew Rankin Chapel being taxed almost to its capacity.
Douglass Memorial Rites at Campbell A.M.E. Church

Mr. Scott preached Sunday morning.
Edward W. Worthington Appears in Organ Recital
Edward W. Worthington, local musician, was presented in an organ recital at Shiloh Baptist Church under the auspices of the Ushers' Auxiliary last Monday night.
The program included "Morn" and "Eve," sketches from Harry T. Burleigh, Johnson's "Evening," Boelman's, "Priere Notre Dame," Moe's "Afternoon," Rubinstein's, "Kamenoi Ostrow" and Shrue's "Weeping Mary" and "Wilderness March."
Community Music Club Sponsors Benefit Program
The Dunbar Community Music Club will sponsor a program Monday at the Florida Avenue Baptist Church for the benefit of a fund to purchase instruments and sheet music.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1933
Christian Endeavor Movement Celebrated in 52nd Anniversary
The fifty-second anniversary of Christian Endeavor was celebrated in the city last week by the Golden Rule C.E. Union and its member societies. Special features of the celebration included a banquet at the Graves Cafe, and the observation of the annual C.E. Night at the First Baptist Church in Georgetown.
Approximately one hundred endeavors were attracted to the banquet which took place Wednesday. Short speeches interspersed the jolly proceedings. Mrs. Mary Thompson, secretary of the Phyllis Wheatley W.Y.C.A., was the speaker of the occasion. Mrs. I. M. Hamilton, secretary of the union, read a report of its work during the year. A duet by Misses Elsie and Wanda Graa, a solo by H. Lee Smith, a recitation by Mrs. Lillian Brown and the presentation of a quartet from the Third Baptist Church were other numbers.
Awards were made as follows: the coveted "Shield," for accomplishments, to the Third Baptist Society; the "Intermediate Cup," to the Intermediate Society of the First Baptist Church in Georgetown; the "President's Cup" to the Third Baptist Society, for cooperation in Union activities; the "Attendance Banner" to the First Baptist Church society; and the award for registration to the St. Paul Society.
James A. Brown, the president of the Union, presided. The celebration was a counterpart of similar observances held all over the country and in many foreign lands.
Activities at Phyllis Wheatley Y.W.C.A.
A meeting of unusual interest was held by the board of directors of the Phyllis Wheatley W.Y.W.C.A. Monday. The interest grew out of the recent action of the Community Chest in cutting contributions to character building agencies. Phyllis Wheatley claims that, to its character building, it add last resort relief for those rejected by other agencies. Though, without reserve funds, and with greatly reduced incomes for rentals, members of the board say they have resolved to carry on.
At this meeting the following officers of the association were reelected for the ensuing year: Mrs. Julia West Hamilton, president; Mrs. Annie E. Cromwell, vice-president; Miss Marion P. Shad, treasurer; Mrs. Matilda H. Wesley, recording secretary, and Mrs. E. V. C. Williams, chaplain.
On February 26, at nineteenth Street Baptist Church, at 4 p.m., a mass meeting to educate our public as to what camp life offers the city girl and boy will be held.

The Y.W.C.A. dodge ball teams will compete with the Dunbar teams Friday evening, February 10, at 7 o'clock, at the Dunbar Community Center. The Y team boasts of Mabel and Minnie Tate, Frances Roulac and others. The Community Center team also has two sisters, Virginia and Estelle Lewis besides Mildred Outlaw and Sessie Chinn. Miss Elizabeth Granton is director of both teams. As the subject of the "Ideal Girl" was discussed in the Metropolitan Four L. Club, much excitement was aroused.
Three representatives from each of the senior high clubs will meet Wednesday afternoon at the Y for complete organization of an inter-club council.
Soon overy girl of the seven hundred Girl Reserves will know many songs. In the past two weeks Mrs. Bundrant and the girl reserve secretary have visited many clubs, teaching songs.
Industrial News
Watch for the date of basketball game between Freedmen's team and the Y team. Remember the social dancing class every Tuesday at 7 p.m. Mrs. Van Brackle is instructor.

Episcopalians of Southern Virginia are Against Racial Equality
SUFFOLK, Va.-By the narrow margin of one vote the Diocese of Southern Virginia refused to join the other two dioceses of the Episcopal Church in the state and lift the bar which keeps Negro clergymen from having full representation on the diocesan council on a parity with white clergymen. The resolution which would have taken the racial discrimination practice out of the highest body of the church in this district was introduced by Dr. W. A. R. Goodwin, of Williamsbury, following the reading of a memorial to the forty-first annual convocation of the council which met at St. Paul's church, here last week.
The Rev. B. W. Harris, rector of Grace Episcopal Church, Norfolk, read the document coming from the 13 Negro congregations in the Southern Diocese, in which the council was petitioned to amend its constitution so that there shall not be a limitation to the number of Negroes who may sit on the council, while every white priest automatically becomes a member.
Racial Bars Raised in 1889
The anti-Negro stipulation for this was adopted in 1889 at the time the original diocese, including the whole of Virginia, was divided into three dioceses serving different geographical districts of the state. At that time Archdeacon James S. Russell, principal emeritus of St. Paul School, and the Rev. J. W. Harrison, of Freeman, were already on the council.
These have membership for life, and are two of the six churchmen of color who are now permitted to council membership. The others are Dr. W. E. Reid, Portsmouth, and J. L. Whitehead, Lawrenceville, representing the laymen, and the Revs. B. W. Harris, Norfolk, and J. Alvin Russell, Lawrenceville, representing the clergy. Lifting the racial bars would admit about 35 Negro members, both lay and clergy.
Prominent white advocates of the change, hesides Dr. Goodwin, were the Rev. Keith M. Lee, Newport News; the Rev. Charles H. Holmead, Portsmouth; the Rev. N. E. Wicker, Danville, and the Rev. R. H. Lee, Rev. Mr. Harris was the only Negro delegate who spoke for the measure.
Men's Club of Asbury to Hold Interracial Program

Music for this srvice will be provided by the Asbury Male chorus and two soloists: James O. Holmes, of Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, and Justin Lawrie, of Foundry Methodist Episcopal Church.

Catholic Federation Controversy not a Question of Racial or Interracial Ideas
Professor Thomas W. Turner, President of the Federation, Answers Editor Markoe's Press Statement
By Thomas W. Turner
The numerous misstatements and other camouflages s.n. to the Negro press recently by the Rev. William M. Markoe, S.J., of St. Louis, have not deceived the vast majority of Negro or other Catholics. The executive committee of the federation repudiated unmistakably on January 8, the brazen attempt to force the organization out of the hands of its founders and to have its aims and purposes dominated according to some fanciful place which this young clergyman had in mind for the Negro Catholic.
In connection with this "place," he had already carved out for himself, "for the rest of his life" a peaceful, but dominating berth. He selected himself to be, paradoxical as it may seem, the Negro voice of the future and from what we see in the press he is making a loud noise, the obvious intention being to drown out all legitimate sounds.
Attempts to Cloud Issue
His attempt now to cloud the issue surrounding the Chicago meeting and later outbursts needs only a few pinpricks to show their insecurity and their evasive falsities.
It is provably false to try to make the public believe that the questions at issue are differences between some racial and interracial idea. I would not carry on any such foolish controversy with the Reverend. Such jargon of words is only camouflage and has nothing immediately to do with the Rev. Father Markoe's attack upon the organization.
Unless the good priest desires to persist in his attempt to mislead the public, Negro and White, he will tell the people unequivocally that bi-racial activity has been a leading feature of our organization from its beginning and the enlargement of this has proceeded from year to year through definite action of our executive committee and my unqualified cooperation. Long before he came upon the scene, bi-racial activity was our idea and a part of our work.
We have always welcomed such members of the white group as the desired to work with us, giving them sometimes as in the case of the Rev. Mr. Markoe most important elective positions. This fact alone should qualify any persons who seek to give the impression that our organization has not in the past encouraged the fullest co-operation with the white group, as leading candidates for the Ananias club
What Is the Trouble?
Then, what is the real trouble? Here is the answer:
1. The refusal of the Rev. William M. Marko to obey the constituted authorities in the organization.
2. The assumption unto himself, of super-constitutional privileges (which he thinks belong to his priesthood), the vetoing of which by me as president, he impetuously refers to in his paper as an "anti-clerical attitude." Such is done for the plain purpose of alienating the clergy.
3. His changing the name of the federation's organ which he edited—the Chronicle—without authority or without any consultation with the president or other officers of the administration of the federation. This inexcusable act of defiance (though suitably warned), called for immediate disapproval. Such disapproval was endorsed by the unanimous vote of the executive committee meeting in Washington on January 8.
His clear intentions to dominate or ruin by fair or foul means are brought to the fore strikingly in his Chicago fasco as well as in the numerous false interviews with which he has flooded the Negro press; all of which have been condemned by the proper authorities in the organization.
To summarize: The sole reason for the present disturbance is the inordinate desire of the good priest to put a stop to our progressive activity because he, himself, was afraid to, or was otherwise hesitant in going through with the whole program.
Form of Set Up not an Issue
All talk about interracial ideas is camouflage manufactured by the Reverend for specific purposes.
The question may be asked further, why the Markoog fear or hostility to present methods followed by the organization? It is needless for me to say here that the fullest endorsement of our work has come from every Negro priest in the United States and from a large number of white priests. Letters in my possession from the fathers referred to above will bear out what I am saying.
The late Reverend Father Theobald was to accompany our committee, as a member, to confer with the bishops last year, but could not reach Washington in time for the meeting. The Reverend Father Markoog has never of-

fered to go with the Negro members to face the bishops. The answer to the question is not difficult for one who knows all the facts: Our committees of leading Negro Catholics appear annually before the hierarchy of the United States and present fo. their consideration the problems of the Negro in the church. The committees have up o the present time been all Negroes, largely because they were not able to do otherwise.
Father Markoe Has Balked
The stormy Reverend Father has balked about going with the committee and helping in person to wage the battle; nor has it escaped notice that our group count upon him to go only part of the way, even though he boisterously clamors for all the say. Such a situation, undoubtedly embarrassing to hi sambitions, has given him the notion to break in the present nature of the organization which gives the Negro churchman his only contact with the hierarchy and to form some kind of a body behind which he could talk at liberty from a comfortably long range. The futility of such talk all Negroes and other people know too well.
If the Reverend Father desires to do a real piece of bi-racial work he might cease his disturbances in our organization, leave it and become a missionary to his own religious group, for it is inconceivable to any unbiased observer to think of a person deeply burning with zeal for the welfare of the Negro Catholic, when at the same time he looks in silence upon the intolerable practices going on before his own eyes and in his own community. Safety seems to be his motto.
The federation was not organized on the "playing safely" basis. It is, then, of the highest importance that a correct view of Father Markoe the outbursts be had by the public concerned, for a recent release carries a very distorted and incorrect presentation of the matter.
Founder of Providence Baptist Church Buried
Funeral rites were held for Joseph Brooks, founder and chairman of trustees of the Providence Baptist Church. Mr. Brooks had been chairman of the trustees of the church since its organization in 1892; and also served as superintendent of the Sunday School for over twenty years. The rites were held Monday, January 30, at the church with the Rev. Mr. Chambers master of ceremonies. The general was preached by the pastor, the Rev. G. W. Coleman, assisted by the Reverends Jernigan, Washington, McCoy, Randolph, Marshall and Murray, all of whom were personal friends of the deceased.
Solos were rendered by Mr. Johnson and Mr. Washington; a paper was read from the church by Mrs. Henderson and services were conducted around the body by the Oddfellow, Chaldean and Samaritan orders.
Mr. Brooks is survived by his wife, Mrs. Cassie Brooks, two daughters, Mrs. Josephine Smith and Ada Lucas, a son, Clinton Brooks, and twelve grand children.
Aubert A. Burgess, violinist, gave an excellent recital on last Friday night at the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church. Each number was rendered with the technique and brilliance of a true artist. Mr. Burgess began his training when a small boy and has been under the best instructors of violin the country affords. The thoroughness of his training was shown in the manner of his interpretation of Fritz Kreisler's "Caprice" and "Leibesfroud"; then again in the spiritual, "Nobody Knows the Trouble I See," by Johnson-Powell into which he put all the pathos and feeling which is the natural heritage of the race to which the song was dedicated. Mr. Burgess received such an ovation at the conclusion of the program that he responded with "Capitana" which, like every number he played, convinced lovers of music, that here was an artist.
Another brilliant feature of the program was had in the person of Mrs. E. V. Gibbs, soprano soloist and directress of the Mt. Carmel Church choir.
She sang three numbers, "The Swallows," "Carita" and "Moonlight-Starlight."
She has a wonderfully pleasing voice; rich in volume and sweetness. Before taking charge of the Mt. Carmel choir, Mrs. Gibbs traveled as a concert singer and won for herself, much honor.
The accompanists for the recital were Mrs. Hortense Freeland Burgess and Mrs. J. T. Nickens, who did credit to the soloists and to themselves.
The program was sponsored by the B.Y.P.U. of Carmel, Miss C. J. Woolfork, president, the Rev. W. H. Jernagin, pastor.
Memorial Rites Eulogizes Church's Deceased Members
Memorial services eulogizing five deceased members of the congregation who died during the past year were held at the John Stewart M.E. Church Sunday night. Elsie Moore served as mistress of ceremonies.
The deceased members eulogized wre Bertha Frederick, Verlenga Smoot, William Harris, Thomas Williams and John Fendall.
Those who took part in the services were the Reverends W. T. Hawkins, J. A. Frederick and Eugene Williams, pastor, James Wallace, K. D. Powell, Alevia Rousey, Gertrude Wilson, Ellastine Moore, Jennieye Edmonds and Miss Moore.
The funeral was conducted by A. S. Pope with interment at Payne Cemetery.

BISONS DEFEAT HAMPTON 30-26
Opening a four-game home stand in the university gym, Monday night, the Howard basketball team trimmed the Seasiders quint from Hampton Institute in a hard-fought clash, 30-26. The victory evened the score for a defeat handed the Bisons by the Seasiders while on their Southern tour several weeks ago.
In the first period, both teams played loosely and were tied 10-all. McPherson and White, for the visitors, were able to cage a single shot each, while the Lanky Penn, Bison center, sank all of Howard's field goals.
The Bisons came to life in the final period and Showboat Ware and Arthur Carter, former Cardozo High player, dropped in a half dozen baskets in rapid succession to put the Bisons ahead. After getting this jump the Howardites were not to be over taken despite a thrilling last minute rally by the Hamptonites.
Melvin Lancaster, former Armstrong High School player, was in the Seasiders' line-up.
The Bisons face Lincoln University tomorrow (Saturday) night at 7:30 o'clock.

The fast stepping Ricks put a crimp in the Miner Teachers' College five, Tuesday in the latter's gymnasium by a score of 43 to 26.
Gross, with 12 points, Wedlock and Tobias with 9 each, and the well oiled machine of the Ricks, which worked to perfection in the business of manufacturing baskets were the features of the game.
Smith, of Miner College, was the high point scorer of the game with 15-seven goals and one foul. At the half time the Ricks were in the van, 24 to 19.

HALL LEADS TECH TO WIN OVER RICKS
Logan and Mozee Star as Y.Flashes Succumb also, 33-16
Clinaxing a week in which the Orange and blue rough riders trampled the fleeing Douglass High School Ducks to a 27-16 count, which virtually left the South Atlantic lead hinged on the outcome of this week's mix-ups Coach Westmoreland sent his "Skullers" into action in the second double-header of the current season, against two Y.M.C.A. quintets who were destined to yield to the inimitable passing tactics of the Manual Trainers. Puffy Martin and the Ricks five, boasting two former Armstrong basketers in the personages of Pee Wee Gross and Maggie Baskerville, tried hard but all in vain to penetrate the defense of the P Street lads for sufficient markers to offset the brilliant attack of their superior rivals.
So hard and valiant did the Ricks gladiators try that it appeared as if the "never-say-die" spirit would produce results. Even when completely exhausted against the always fresh and thereby stronger attack of the Generals, the Twelfth Street performers put up a dazzling scrap, being only two points in the van at the half whistle.
But as play progressed, with the ricks "shooting in hard luck," so to speak, the Westcrelandmen drew well out into the lead and when the final sixty seconds had passed, were fifteen markers to the good. The final score was 31-16.
Pee Wee Gross and the never-satisfied Herbie Tobias arched long ones into the ozone which seemed headed for a trip through the cords only to hit the back board with a resounding thud, drop onto the rim and then, like a woman changes her mind, and rolls off again.
Joe (Satchel Feet) Hall was high point man, recording one more than half his team's points, while Renny Logan was involved in a deadlock with Gross for runner-up honors both having been credited with four two-pointers. Behind the "back-board beating" of Oswald Glyph, the "Y" Flashes were blasted into a 33 to 16 submission by practically the same five which had previously crushed the fighting spirit of the Ricks.
Even with Cutey Ford—the Clark; or should I say Dark Gable of Armstrong, showing signs of cut-rate outbursts, the game was slow and listless filled with football and hockey rather than basketball performances. It was the game of the "bams," the Flashes doing most of the hamming. However, Mozee managed to find himself for the first time this season and accounted for eight points to grab scoring honors with Glyph, Covington and Logan running a close second. Seven for the initial duo and six for the last named, were the respective points.
Both contests, incidentally, were characteristic of local high school performances—marred with unnecessary roughness and scores of fouls both called and uncalled—coupled with inefficient officiating.

Frank Wykoff Rates Detroit "Flier" as Fastest
NEW YORK CITY — (CNS)—Frank Wykoff, counted by many as the "fastest human" since he holds the record for the 100-yard dash (9.4 seconds) rates Eddie Tolan, now a recording clerk in Wayne County (Detroit); and Ralph Metcalfe, the Marquette College star; as first and third in a list of the ten greatest sprinters he has met in competition.
A year from now, maybe two, and Wykoff, who set the world record for 100 yards at 9.4 seconds in Los Angeles in 1930, feels he will have to head his list with another name, that of Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette's great Negro sprinter, who followed Tolan in both Olympic triumphs. The records of Tolan and Metcalfe are as follows:
Eddie Tolan, world record, 10.3 for 100 meters, and 21.2 for 200 meters.
Ralph Metcalfe, 10.3 second seconds for 100 meters, American record.
Wykoff, only 23 years old, completed his scholastic work at Southern California two weeks ago and is in the East for a month of indoor competition, the first of his career. It is hardly possible that he will meet Tolan or Metcalfe in any of these contests.

Lose First Tilt to
New York Nats
The Cosmopolitans, the only semi-pro basketers in the country made up of colored and white players, lost their opening home game last Thursday to the New York Nationals, by a count of 36 to 32. Most of the winners' points were scored by Kent and Yerkes, the latter specializing in long shots from the center of the floor. The Cosmos tossers clicked in grand style. The entire team functioned to the satisfaction of the enthusiastic gallery.
Long Shots Feature
The contest gave Washington fans a good exhibition of professional basketball. Earl Moser scored the Cosmos's first tally and was followed by Slim Thomas with a hook shot. The long shots of Yerkes placed his team to a 26 to 15 advantage at the half. The losers, led by the brilliant floor work of Lanky Jones and the effective block pivoting of Moser, advanced the local group to par early in the second half. Jeffries, McDonald and Hawkins played well throughout the fray.
The Cosmos quint will play its next game in Baltimore against the Oakleys. The next local contest will be at the Twelfth Street Y.M.C.A. at the Long Island Pro-Emps of New York on February 21.

Shaw Bears Win Close
RALEIGH, N.C. — The Smith Bulls dropped a close game to the Shaw University Bears in the Bears' cage at Shaw on Saturday night, by a 30-27 score.
The superb defensive play of Captain Matthews and of Hutchinson beneath the basket combined with the fine shooting accuracy of Robinson provided the Bulls with an easily lead over the Bears throughout the first half which ended 19-6, the bears on the short end.

'FORCE TO MEET Y.M.C.A.BIG FIVE
Ohio Green Wave to Lock with Local Basketers February 15
Wilberforce University's basketball team will play the Twelfth Street Y.M.C.A. Big Five at the Twelfth Street Y.M.C.A. gymnasium, February 15.
This will mark the second meeting of the two institutions within the last three years. In 1930, the Y Big Five trounced the Green Tornadoes by a 62 to 30 score.
Wilberforce came that year with a strong aggregation, but the Y led at that time by the late Slim Henderson, was too much for the invaders. It is with memory of that decisive defeat that Wilberforce is coming to Washington to reverse that 60 to 30 contest.
Has Good Record
Wilberforce has established a long string of victories on both its Southern and Mid-Western campaigns. The team is made up of some of the best players in the history of the school and should furnish the Eastern fans with the highest type of basketball. The Twelfth Street Y will meet the invaders with an aggregation of basketball players composed of former college stars. This squad includes Ted Thompson, who starred at Wilberforce during the days of Wu Fang. Along with Ted will play Lanky Jones, former star of Morgan College, a player who fought Wilberforce in many a tilt. Slim Thomas and Eddie Davis, who teamed together at Virginia Seminary when that school won the national collegiate championship, will also represent the Y.
Y to Feature Stars
Everett Jeffries, who has starred on the Twelfth Street Y Big Five for the last five years, will be in line to do his bit to stop the Green Wave. Jeffries and Davis were members of the 1930 team which so handily stopped the boys from Ohio. Sally Hall, former Howard University luminary, will also be in the line-up.
Charlie Tibbs, a former Howard University player, will be another to wear the Y colors.
Bobby Hawkins, another member of the Y Big Five, was also instrumental in trouncing Wilberforce in their last invasion. The Big Five will have plenty reserve in the following youngsters, who in another year are bound to force their way into the shoes of some of the regulars: Pee Wee Gross, Martin Briscoe, Glyph, and Hamilton.
Boxing and Wrestling
As an added attraction to the basketball contest, the Drudi Hill Avenue Y.M.C.A.'s boxing and wrestling team will meet the Twelfth Street Y in a dual contest, featuring Rough House Gordon, Chief Brown, Billy Carter, Kid Williams, and other members of the boxing and wrestling club.
Dunbar and Armstrong to Clash on Friday
Dunbar and Armstrong will clash Friday in a game that will have considerable bearing on the South Atlantic High School championship race. The two schools are now tied for first place honors.
Dunbar meets the Howard Junior varsity the following day and on February 13 the Manchester A.C. will oppose the Poets. The schedule follows:
Feb. 10—Dunbar vs. Armstrong
Feb. 11—Dunbar vs. H.U. Jrs.
Feb. 13—Dunbar vs. Manchester
Feb. 15—Dunbar at Douglass
Feb. 20—Dunbar vs. Armstrong
Mar. 3—Dunbar vs. Cardozo
Georgia Team Here
The Twelfth Street Y Big Five will meet the Phantom A.C. of Brunswick, Ga., Thursday night on the Y court. The Georgia Quint is composed of a number of former Morris Brown College stars and is considered the best independent team in the South, and just ended a phenomenal home schedule by winning 15 victories.

Local Teachers Defeated Second Time by Jersey Quint
The Bordentown School quintet defeated Miner Teachers' College here Friday afternoon for the second time this season in a game that was featured by long-range shooting. The score was 40-29.
The Jerseyites had previously defeated the locals at Bordentown. Morris and Swann were the big guns for the victors, the former scoring seven field goals from the center of the floor. The Wildcats got off to a flying start, scoring five field goals before the teachers found the basket. A substitute line-up in the third quarter proved Coach Martin's most effective threat for Miner but Bordentown had a safe lead and coated to the game's end.

GENERALS DRUB STENOGS, 36-18
Hall Racks up 17 Points in Hectic Contest as Cardozo Loses Fifth
Led by Joe Hall, big center, who seemed to Cardozo's basketers to be "here, there and everywhere," and especially under the cords, Arm-strong sank the wearers of the Purple and White lower into the depths of a losing streak, Monday, when they piled up a 36 to 18 defeat onto the string of losses of the M Street performers.
Brandishing an attack which threatened to play the General tit for tat, the Stenogs led at the termination of the initial quarter, 5 to 3. Hall incidentally was responsible for the trio of markers chalked up by Tech in this quarter, while his direct opponent, Lamar, was credited with four of his mates' five points.
Hager had deadlocked play with a "snowbird" inaugurating the second eight minutes of play, and for nearly five minutes the ten players engaged in such unethical floor tactics as are seldom witnessed in high school circles. Then to top it off, the dominating figure of the game, Joe Hall, was destined to put an end to the reign of the tie when he sank a foul from the free throw line, following this up with another of the same kind coupled with two of his ever-famous "twisting" shots to send the few fans on hand into a state of frenzy and the Cardozo lads into a daze.
End of Half
Robinson and Byrd attempted something of a retaliation as they sneaked in four points in rapid order to pull their mates within four markers of the Westmorelandmen. Joe Hager behind some nifty passing had looped in a pot shot when Hayes chalked up a one-pointer as the first half ended.
Score: Armstrong, 14; Cardozo, 9.
From here, however, things were foreordained to take on a different aspect, inasmuch as the Stenoges were able to account for nine points in the following periods while the P-Street aggregation racked up twenty-two markers.
Lamar, the Cardozo bright spot, or should I say dark spot, opened third quarter festives with a shot from the double line to pull the Stenogs within three markers, but when Hall, Hager and Logan began dropping in snowbirds, pot-shots, or what have you, everything looked alike to the M Street aggregation as they made every known attempt to send the ball through the cords, yet with disastrous results.
From the time when Lamar pushed in his second attempt through the basket at the outset of the third period, it was late in the concluding minutes of contesting when Robinson looped in the ball from the block. During this time, nevertheless, the Westmoreland men were able to muster seventeen points to send their score to fourteen to thirty-one, and from this point to thirty-six at the final whistle.
Hall, Hager, Logan and Quarles, along with Mitchell, bore the brunt of the Generals' attack during that time, while Lamar and Robinson alone were able to break loose long enough to evade the flashy shooting and passing of the Armstrong courtmen, and rack up a few points.
Incidently, the number of fouls called against the Cardozoites were numerous enough to lose the game for them while those they missed were sufficient to close the gap between the fangs of defeat to a narrower margin.
Needless to say, Hall was high scorer with six two-pointers and five fouls, while Lamar, Hager, Robinson and Logan followed in the order named with nine, eight, six and four, respectively.

DOVER LOSES TWICE TO DOWINGTOWN FIVE
DOVER, Dela—In two hectic clashes on the wooden way here last Saturday night Delewart State College dropped a pair of pulsating games to Downingtown Industrial School. The 1932 M.A.A.A. champions were victorious over the Dover sextet 27-21, thus taking undisputed possession of first place on the 1933 race. The Keystone lads then copped a hair-raising, seesaw contest 35-34, but only after two extra periods had been played.
Golf Skits
By HAPPY WATERS
The most remarkable golf feat I've ever witnessed occurred on the Columbia course in Chevy Chase some years ago. Leo Diegal, now pro at the Agua Caliente Club in Mexico, was playing with three others.
By vitreue of ragged play, he carded a thirty-nine for the outward journey, par being thirty-five. Standing on the tenth tee, a player in this foursome, offered Diegal a hundred to one odds, that he wouldn't shoot thirty or better coming in.
This was accepted and from there on Diegal played some of the best iron and wood shots ever seen on this course. Chipping and putting with deadly accuracy, he finished in twenty-nine, this being six under, coming in.
Had he played as well going out, a record score of fifty-eight on this par seventy course, no doubt would st.nd for many a day.
This brings to my mind the sixty made by Aubrey Boomer, French professional, who was competing in his native open championships at St. Cloud some years ago.
Par for this course is seventy-two and Boomer was out in thirty-one and back in twenty-nine, being twelve under par.
He admitted at no time during his long golfing career, had he played as well as that round.
This classic was won by Harton Smith, the young professional from Missouri, but Boomer finished well in the money and still remains the record-holder at St. Cloud.
Dick Lucas, employed at the Burning Tree Club in Bethesda, carded a net 74 on that layout a few days ago. This isn't an easy course, for a player must be hitting his shots long and well, to score satisfactorily. Lucas is sure to command attention in a few years.

Many good golfers think a prominent professional spoke too hastily in denouncing all caddies as worthless. One writer reminds this particular sportsman of the fact, that he once toted clubs for others and must have forgotten this, in making such a statement
TROJANS DEFEAT UNION PANTHERS
Hall Tallies 12 Points as Va. State Dominate Entire Game
PETERSBURG, Va.—Showing a five-man scoring offense and a non-penetrable defense, the Virginia State Trojans defeated their ancient rivals, the Virginia Union Panthers, by a score of 37 to 22 in a basketball game devoid of thrills, played in the State College gymnasium here last Friday night. In the first half the Trojans played rings around their opponents, gathering a total of 17 points and allowing the Panthers a meagre 6, as Bumble Scott, ace forward and captain of the Trojans, and Koko Hall, long, lanky center from Oklahoma, sank field goals from all angles of the court, before they were taken out of the game to allow the Trojan reserve material to gain some experience.
Trojans Command Lead
The second half was like unto the first with the Trojans enjoying a commanding lead all the way, never being seriously threatened. The Panthers found great difficulty in getting started, it seems, Coach Hucles trying one combination after another, but failing somehow to get one that would click. High scoring honors of the game go to Hall of Virginia State, who accounted for 12 points during his 16 minutes of play. French, of the Panthers, ran Hall a close second, gathering 11 or exactly one-half of his team's points. In a thrilling preliminary game which completely overshadowed the main contest, and required an extra period of three minutes to decided, the Phoenix High School of Hampton, defeated the Virginia State High School by a score of 39 to 38.

GREENLEE HEADS BASEBALL LEAGUE
Washington Pilots to Be Represented in National Loop
By THE OBSERVER
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—The National Negro Baseball League was reorganized here last Friday at a meeting of officials at the office of Mr. Gootleib, booking agent.
The league as now constituted will be composed of two divisions—an Eastern and a Western. The Eastern group embraces Philadelphia, Baltimore, New York and Washington. The Western loop will include Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Indianapolis, and Pittsburgh. The Pittsburgh Crawfords and the Homestead Grays will both represent Pittsburgh.
Gus Greenlee, owner of the Crawfords and Greenlee Stadium, was named temporary chairman of the league. The newly elected head is now busily engaged in planning for the completion of the league.
The late Andrew (Rube) Foster, for many years a dominant figure in baseball, was founder of the Negro National League. All clubs will operate on what is known as the co-operative plan schedule and games will not overlap.

Cheyney Loses Second to Bordentown, 39-19
BORDENTOWN, N. J. — Fresh from a triumph over Miner, Bordentown defeated an improved Cheyney Teachers' College team on the Ironsides' court Saturday, 39-19.
The Pennsy teachers presented a much stronger defense than previously when the Jerseyites found them such easy prey. At half time the count was 13-10, but a last quarter spurt by the Wildeats gave them a safe margin at the game's clos. The game marked Bordentown's third M.A.A.A. victory and her tenth victory in eleven starts.

HAMPTON WINS BY A SINGLE BASKET
Seasiders Eke Out Slim Margin of Victory over W. Va. State
By ENOC P. WATERS, JR.
HAMPTON, Va.—Hampton Institute basketers were pushed to their limit last Saturday afternoon to trip a lanky West Virginia State College combination with a twin-pointer which carried victory with a 23-21 count.
The game, a fast contest from beginning to end, brought together two quints which presented a whirlwind floor game of such effectiveness that neither team was permitted to score except after long intervals of hard playing.
The final score was reached one minute and a half before the game, but Captain Carter and his quartet staged such a brilliant defense that the efforts of the visitors to force the struggle into an extra period were unsuccessful.
Hoaker Breaks Ice
Hooker broke the ice in the first half when he converted a free throw into a counter. The game immediately speeded up, the Westerners flashing an attack that hushed the Hampton stands. The locals, handicapped by the height of the visitors, resorted to close playing, and so effective were they that the solidarity digit gave Hampton a lead for almost three minutes. The State boys, however, were able to shake off the adhesive Hampton defense and break through for a twin-pointer. Lewis of Hampton, countered, giving the hosts a lead on a 3-2 count.
Phillips, aggressive Western pivot, hung up his second ringer to give his boys a lead which they were able to increase to eight before Captain Carter could marshal his Scisiders for a counter attack which was strengthened by the entrance of White, Hamm, and Lancaster.
Lancaster, playing his best game of the year on the home court, was effective in the rally which gave Hampton the long end of the 13-11 count at half.
Strategy Failed
With the score at 23-18 and six minutes to go for game, State called the time. Campbell and White, who had been withdrawn by Coach Williams, were rushed in and when playing was resumed Hampton resorted to a Fabian policy which maintained the statusquo while the minutes eased away. Phillips slipped through for a twin-pointer and Randolph followed a minute later with a single. With a minute and a half left, the Westerners got possession of the ball and staged a desperate aggressive obviously meant to force the fray into an extra period. Their enthusiasm, however, defeated them more effectively than the composition of the Seasiders. In their eagerness several setups slipped, which under ordinary pressure they would have converted to counters.
Virginia State to Hold Annual Basketball Tournament March 10
Plays to Be Divided into Two Classes with Teams from All Over State Playing for Honors and Prizes
PETERSBURG, VA.—Preparations for the sixth annual state interscholastic basketball tournament, to be held at Virginia State College, March 10 and 11, are moving speedily toward completion, as city high schools and county training schools throughout the state respond favorably to the invitation of President John M. Gandy and the Varsity Club of Virginia State, under whose auspices the tournament is held.

In addition to the regular championship play there will be a consolation tournament enabling each team to play at least twice.
Recognized rules of eligibility of secondary schools will be enforced.
All games will be played according to accepted rules of inter-scholastic basketball.
There will be two divisions in
Since the initiation of the tournament in 1928 the event has grown steadily in attendance and interest, each year witnessing an increased number of schools participating and much larger number of visitors in attendance. From all present indications this year's meet will surpass all previous tournaments.
In response to a feeling, that has existed for some time, that the lack of two divisions in the tournament tended to reduce the enthusiasm of many of the smaller schools as well as those with lesser athletic facilities, this year the players will be divided into two classes. Class A participants will consist of all city high schools. All county training schools will be placed in class B. Trophies will be provided for both classes.
The following regulations will govern the operations of the tournament:
This tournament is open to all public schools of Virginia. All schools desiring to participate must file their intention to participate not later than February 17. The names of eight players, coach, young lady representative and chaperon of each school must be mailed to J. D. Barnes, Director of Physical Education, Virginia State College, not later than March 1st. Each team to be restricted to the use of eight players during
Changes in Basketball Rules
By BENIAIMIN WASHINGTON
Secretary, Eastern Board of Officials
Question. Will the Washington Tribune give some information about "time out" on the floor in a basketball game? I have seen several games this season in this city where the timers seemd to have been very far apart in keeping correct time.
Answer. Time out in the game of basketball is taken only when ordered by the referee. This he does by definitely notifying the timers to do so, and, according to specific instruction in the rules, time shall be taken out WHEN-EVER A FOUL IS CALLED.
A captain may when the ball is session of HIS calls for time out in possession of t the timers indic such time out, the ed with a techni
If the ball is in jury occurs, the r hold the blowing t the play has that is the team the ball has thro the ball, with has or an out-of-bou
In the latter case the referee presumes that timers appointed for a game are aware of this provision in the rules. He sometimes realizes during the progress of a game that former players have been designated as timers who are of the opinion that the timer simply starts his watch at the beginning of the game and stones it when a certain playing period is up, at the end of the game.
It is here that confusion frequently results and the game is ended to the disgust of spectators.
The stop-watch should be placed on the table visible to the representatives of both teams who are designated as timers, and under no circumstance should either of these persons hold the watch in his hand.
A very different signal from the whistle used by the referee should be sounded by the timers whenever occasion arises for its use, a horn, or a gong is preferable to a whistle.
In case of a technical foul, or a double foul, time shall be resumed when the referee blows his whistle AS HE TQSSES THE BALL UP AT CENTER.
In case of other fouls, time shall be resumed when the ball leaves the free thrower's hands, if only ONE free throw has been awarded; and when the ball leaves his hands for the LAST free throw, when more than one has been awarded.
Of course there must be a definite understanding between the referee and the timers as to the type of signal that he will use to indicate time in and time out in connection with fouls and free throws.
Time out shall be permitted only THREE times for each team during the game, but after a team has used its three-time periods, it may be granted additional time out periods at the expense of a technical foul, or due to injury, or other emergency.
If time out consumes more than ONE MINUTE, an additional time out shall be charged for each fraction thereof.
the entire tournament play. In addition to the regular championship play there will be a consolation tournament enabling each team to play at least twice. Recognized rules of eligibility of secondary schools will be enforced. All games will be played according to accepted rules of inter-scholastic basketball. There will be two divisions in the tournament, classes "A" and "B." The basis of the classification shall be that of County Training Schools and of City High Schools and County Training Schools. All coaches are expected to be present at the drawing held in the lobby of Seward Hall at 8 A. M., March 10. The first game will be called at 9 A. M., Friday, March 10.
Teams, coaches, and young lady representing the various schools will be the guests of Virginia State College.
Final standing of teams will be posted at end of the tournament.
Program of the tournament containing schedule of games and other information, will be available March 1.
Awards
The winning team in both "A" and "B" classes will be presented with a trophy.
Members of the winning team in both classes will be presented with gold basketballs.
Members of the second place team in each division will be presented with silver medals.
Directors of athletics of all city high and county training schools desiring to enter the tournament are advised to communicate immediately with Coach James D. Barnes, Jr., Virginia State College, Ettrick, Va.
A captain may call for time out when the ball is dead or in possession of HIS team, but if he calls for time out while the ball is in possession of the opponents and the timers indicate this signal for such time out, the captain is charged with a technical foul. If the ball is in play when an injury occurs, the referee shall withhold the blowing of the whistle until the play has been completed, that is the team in possession of the ball has thrown for goal, lost the ball, has withheld it from play, or an out-of-bounds play has occurred.
DUNBAR NOSES
OUT HOWARD HI
Single Field Goal is Margin of Victory for Poets
The Dunbar Poets nosed out the Howard High School basketers by a single basket to win a South Atlantic High School game, Wednesday afternoon in the Dunbar gymnasium by a score of 25 to 23.
The Wilmington boys opened up the play by scoring two goals in rapid succession. The Poets came from behind to deadlock the count a few seconds later. At the end of the quarter the score was tied at 7-all.
In the next quarter the Howard boys again took the lead with an advantage of 15 to 12 at the end of the half. The brilliant playing of Davis, Howard forward, put his team in front in this session. Dunbar staged a rally in the third period which ended in the Poets' favor, 19 to 17. Free, diminutive 15-year-old Dunbar forward, and Jackson, a newcomer on the team, led the attack for Dunbar. They scored six and seven points respectively. Matthews, varsity guard, played a brilliant game. Church led the sharpshooters for Howard High with eight points.

Stove Pipe League
By the Observer
Long Sam Hughes. lanky second baseman of the Washington Pilots, has written to the club manager stating that he is in the proverbial pink of condition and is anxious for the belt to ring for the opening practice. Hughes recommends two young ball players for tryouts with the Pilots. One is an outfielder and the other an infielder.
Hughes was one of the hardest hitting infielders on the club last year and teamed with the dashing Jake Dunn, the two make a clever pair of ball players that will be a credit to any infield. If kept paired they bid fair to make a great keystone combination. Great combinations of other years were Warfield and Stevens, DeMoss and Williams, Grant and Lloyd, and Mike Moore and Nate Harris.
Burnell Hayes, sterling young right hander, is in a hospital recovering from an operation for hernia.
The San Antonio Black Indians of the Texas League are under new ownership. George Moore, San Antonio sportsman, will operate the Indians this year.
Big Bill Haynes, formerly a spitball twirler in the Texas circuit, will pilot the Indians. Spring training will start March 5. Haynes is now scouring the South in an effort to sign promising recruits.
Despite the depression, the Washington Pilots will carry on this season. The management has secured several youngsters to bolster the club and local fandom is promised a fast team.

BISONS SWAMPED BY MORGAN BEARS
Howard Outplayed in Every Department of Game by Baltimore
BALTIMORE, Md. — Setting a pace that the opponents were unable to match, the Morgan Bears overwhelmed the Howard Bisons for the second time this season, amid the cheers of a capacity crowd of fans on Friday, 61 to 27.
The Bisons went into the game in a glamorous flash of speed and form and for the first five minutes held a slight edge on the scoring. The enthusiastic fans settled to see a nip-and-tuck battle such as these games. He have staged in previous games. But the Bears, by superior all-round play, soon went into the lead, never to be seriously threatened by the Bisons. At half time the Bears were in the van, 24-13, and the second half was turned in to a complete rout which lasted until the final whistle.
Bisons Outplayed
So completely outplayed were the Bisons in this session by the spectacular floor work of Wilson and the caging of Gibson that they failed to show any substantial defense play and allowed the Bear's score to mount rapidly. Gibson again made two scoring honors, tossing 9 goals from the court and 6 from the strip to give him a total of 24. Running a close second with sensational caging form was his side-kick. Contact, who capped 6 field goals and 1 free for a total of 13.
Pinn Carries Attack
Pinn carved the brunt of the Bison attack and scored three field goals and one from the line. Troupe, Hackett, Wilson, Gibson and Conrad featured a passing attack throughout the game that put the Bears out front never to be headed. A fast moving preliminary between a freshman and sophomore Morgan team showed Ben Yearwood again leading the freshmen to a 35-5 victory. Yearwood was high scorer with 6 field goals and one free goal to his credit. Taylor and Burns scored the two "Soph" goals and credit for the free goal goes to Rosedom.

From Abroad With
Her New Play
| NEW YORK CITY—(CNS)—
Mrs, Eslanda Goode- Robeson, wife
lof the well known actor and sing-
er, has just returned from Europe,
bringing with her a new play,
which she has written called “Un-
cle Tom and His Cabin.”
The theme concerns a Negro jazz
orchestra abroad, and the play is
to be supplemented by the musi
of an American composer who has
not yet been designated.
Mrs, Robeson when asked about
the many rumors that she had be-
gun divorce proceedings against
her husband, said. “On that sub-
ject, simply say that the question
of a divorce has been dropped.”
Mrs. Robeson said that her. hus-
band has become ‘intensely inter-
ested in Russia, and after two
years, study, has learned to speak
and sing’ in Russian and that it
is only a matter of time until he
would sing their operas. He finds
the music particularly adapted to
his deep voice, she said.
Mrs. Robeson added that her hus-
band has been interested in criti-
cisms of the opera “Emperor
Jones,” recently produced here,
which mention him as being well
fitted for the leading role, and that
she intends "to hear the opera to
see whether, in her opinion, the
role would suit him,

IN SING SING” 10
BE AT HOWARD
| For the first time since the How-
ard Theatre opened its doors. to
the public, the management says
that it feels privileged to make
such a statement as, “We have just
seen what we are convinced is a
great picture, and we have weighed
its merits against those of the other
great pictures we have shown. in
the past. Our verdict is that
“20,000 Years in Sing Sing” is the
greatest single entertainment this
theatre has ever offered.” .
This is a story of a thotsand
men without their women, and of
their women who could not do with-
out men. It.is a story of a man
and a girl who didn’t seem to have
the courage to wait for the love
that the law had taken from them.
There is romance and pathos in
the story that will go to the heart
of women—strong, rugged drama
that men will like—laughs and ac-
tion for the children.
“20,000 Years in Sing Sing” is
a picture which is meant for every-

fections of numbers of women he
has loved and left, he falls so heav-
ily for Miss Lombard that he mar-
ries the girl. And that isn't the
half of it,
Women will be intrigued by the
lovely gowns that are worn by both
the girls in the cast—gorgeous,
bewitching things in advance of
the present fashions displayed lo-
cally, for of course they were de-
signed and created in Paris for
the stars.
Gable acts'as only he can, as the
gay hit-and-run Romeo. He played
at love as he played at cards, but
in the end the big-city gambler fell
for small town stuff and learned to
like it,

guilty man? ~All humanity cried
“Yer"—but the law cried “No.”

THE MATCH KING
BlG SENSATION
AT THE RAPHAEL
“The Match King” is the story
ofa man whose power and ambi-
tion raised him from a Chicago
istreet sweeper to a world financial
power atop a pyramid of credit,
built on the ruins of other lives.
It is the tale of a financial Jugger-
naut which onee started could not
be stopped until it brought the fi
nancial world crashing down about
its creator’s ears. It is the story
of a man who was as ruthless in
love as in finance but who learned,
to his sorrow that a reqkoning was
inevitable in either,
Here is a picture of epic propor-
tions, told against a setting of lay-
ish elegance. Here is realistic ay-
per-drama of the modern age which
races in breathless suspense from
one great city to another, from one
European throne room to the next.
Contrasting with the crushing,
dominating power of its principal
theme is the development of a ten-
der love story which threads. its
way through the whole of the pow-
erful drama,
Damita, Glenda Farrell, Juliette
Compton and Claire Dodd all share
in the wearing of gorgeous gowns
created for this picture. Hardic

Despite the inclement weather a good sized crowd turned out to see the musical comedy "Worse Than That" presented by the P-F Society Howard University in the Medical School Audtorium Tuesday night. The proceeds are to go to student aid. The setting of the play was Spain. Senor Dictorio (Clyde Howard) wanted his two charming daughters, Benita (Dolores Williams) and Juanita (Alma Parks) to marry toreadors. The girls, however, were in love with two poor but honest farmers, Juan (John Harris) and Pablo (Kelly Goodwin). These young men hire two beggars to impersonate two famous toreadors (John Edwards and Paul Palmer). But after these two beggars are revealed to him, Senor Dictoria changes his opinion of toreadors and permits his daughters to love the two farmers.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1932
Z »
Tribune Refuses “Green Pastures”
Ad for a Jim Crow Performance
The Washington Tribune this week refused to run an
ad for a Jim Crow performance of Green’ Pastures’ at the
National Theatre. Negroes have been barred from the regu-
lar performances of the show. .
The Tribune's policy is definitely against any sort of
Jim Crow arrangement. For many years the Tribune has
turned down ads of a similar character.
Another theatre has submitted ads to the Tribune on
numerous occasions, and in each instance the ads have been
refused because the theatre maintains a Jim Crow policy.
Ads from other Jim Crow propositions have been treated
in the same fashion:
Many newspapers do not censor the advertising they
carry. The news and editorial columns follow the paper's
policy, while the sold space expresses the desire of those
buying the ads. The Tribune does not consider this a de-
fensible position.
Advertising must be censored: Newspapers do not allow
fraudulent schemes to he propagated through their adver-
tising columns; neither should they publish insults to the peo-
ple that they serve, simply. because ‘they can SELI. the space.
The Tribune refused the ad.
