PASTOR AWARDED ONE CENT IN CHURCH FIGHT ARMSTRONG WINS ANNUAL DRILL Parish Member Tells Why She Belabored Rector With Umbrella The Most News Cleanest News Latest News Vol. XIII, No. 6 ARMS Parish Mem Why She Rector With Says She Was Knocked Down and Was Being Beaten by Mr. White WAS PULLING HIS EAR WHEN RESCUED Mrs. Mitchell Demanded Explanation of "Not Fit" Statement The Rev. Samuel Henry White, Episcopal priest and former vicar of St. Phillips Parish, Anacostia, was awarded one cent damages by a jury in the Municipal Court, on Tuesday, against Mrs. Pauline Mitchell, prominent Washington woman, and church worker. The Rev. Mr. White asked the court for damages totaling $500, charging that Mrs. Mitchell belabored him with her umbrella in the church before the entire membership last September 4. He also claimed she maliciously secured a warrant for his arrest and caused him great pain and embarrassment by having him taken to No. 4 Precinct Station. The assault charge against the Rev. Mr. White never came to trial as it was nolle pressed. Said She Was Being Choked Mrs. Mitchell, through her attorney, John H. Wilson, contended that she was assaulted by the priest and she struck him twice across the head with her umbrella after he had struck her and had his hand around her throat, choking her. While she was prostrat on a bench in church. In testifying in her own behalf, Mrs. Mitchell told the jury that she had formed the "Girls' Friendly Society" among a group of the young women of the parish. This group had selected her as leader and she sought to have the Rev. Mr. White induct the society into the church and made application through the assistant rector. Not a Fit Person She testified that Mr. White replied that "she was not a fit person" to lead girls. She immediately called the rector on the telephone and he told her that he would explain what he meant by the expression at church on the following Sunday. She went to church and after the services, Mr. White in greeting his parishioners offered his hand to her, which she refused, and instead of taking his out-stretched hand she demanded to know what he meant by sending the alleged offensive answer in reply to her request to have the girl's club inducted into the church. Mrs. Mitchell stated that the pastor refused to answer her demand, and when she insisted he pushed her aside, then struck her in the face. It was at this point that she struck him twice across the head with her umbrella. Pulled Pastor On Her Mrs. Emma Smoot, former school teacher, who is now engaged in the undertaking and embalming business stated that Mrs. Mitchell and the rector "came together" at this point. Mrs. Smoot said she and several other members had to pry Mr. White's hands from Mrs. Mitchell's throat and pull her hand from the pastor's ear. After the two were parted Mrs. Mitchell went to her home, and with her husband she went to St. Monica Church in Southeast Washington, where Mr. White was to conduct another service. Moved by Bishop The rector claimed that while he was explaining the incident to Mr. Mitchell, his wife again raised her umbrella and threatened him. She also told the court that the en- continued on page 21. Washington Tribune M. H. MISS EMMA F. G.

Grew Suddenly III Early Thursday morning, her condition gave her immediate relatives no concern. Between the hours of 1 and 2 p.m., she suffered an alarming sinking spell, which necessitated the calling of her physician. According to those who were at her bedside she died without a struggle.

She was a member of the board of directors of the Phyllis Wheatley Y.W.C.A. The deceased was instrumental in creating a shoe fund committee which bought shoes for indigent children so they might go to school. In addition, Miss Merritt organized the Teachers' Benefit and Annuity Association, located at Sherman Avenue and Barry Place, Northwest, and had been its president since its beginning several years ago.

On the right a close-up of President Johnson, and the bottom picture shows a part of the huge crowd who attended the exercises on the campus. This year the commencement exercises will be held in the university stadium before what has been predicted will be the largest crowd in the history of the institution. Thousands are expected to pack the stadium. MAN, 40, THOUGHT ASLEEP, HAD BEEN DEAD SEVEN HOURS Woman Makes Discovery When She Touches Icy Forehead The weird sensation of attempting to awaken a man who was apparently sleeping, but whose clammy forehead proved him to be cold in death, was experienced by Mrs. Margaret Simmons, of 1238 Loudens Court, Southeast, at 6 a.m., Saturday. According to the woman's story to investigating officers of the Fourth Precinct, Richard Hogan, 40, of 734 Navy Place, Southeast, came to her home around noon Friday. He was intoxicated, she stated, and asked, that he be allowed to lie down because he felt sick. Mrs. Simmons, who was ill in bed in the front room of the house, told Hogan to go into a back room, which he did. Elizabeth Johnson, a friend of the sick woman, told police that she went to Mrs. Simmons's around 2:30 p.m. on the same day, to cook something for her to eat. She declared she heard Hogan snoring in the back room during the time she was at the above address. Dead Several Hours: Early Saturday, Mrs. Simmons decided to arouse Hogan. She called him from her bed several times, but received no response. She left her room and went into the one in which Hogan was supposed to be sleeping. She placed her hand upon his forehead. It was cold and she drew back in fright. Mrs. Simmons notified Casualty Hospital and a staff physician upon (Continued on page two) WASHINGTON, D.C., FRIDAY, JUNE 9, 1933 Large Crowd Expected at Commencement Day Exercises at Howard Program, Scheduled for This Afternoon Will Begin Promptly at 1.30 Dr. E. R. EMBREE PRINCIPAL SPEAKER Musical Arts Society and Orchestra to Render Several Selections One of the largest crowds in the history of Howard University is expected to pack the university stadium this afternoon to attend the sixty-fourth annual commencement. One of the most colorful occasions in years has been planned for the throngs that have been pouring into Washington during the week. According to the program, some three bundred graduates will receive degrees from Dr. Mordecar W. Johnson president of the university. The program is scheduled to start promptly at 3:30 p.m., with an overture from the "Magic Flute," by Mozart, by the university orchestra under the direction of Loula Vaughn Jones.

The Musical Arts Society will then render "Father Omnipotent" by Coleridge-Taylor. The invocation will be delivered by the Rev. Edward O. Clark, pastor of the Chevy Chase Baptist Church, and member of the faculty of the School of Religion, which will be followed by the commencement address by Dr. Edwin R.

DeVeile JUSTICE GORDON STATES FINDINGS Concludes $961 In Notes Should Be Returned to Maker The impassioned plea of an elderly woman, Mrs. Julia Alice Martin, 4417 Douglass Street, Northeast, to prevent sale of her home, at the above address, to satisfy several liens secured by deeds of trust, met response in a decision in Equity Court by Justice Peyton Gordon, last week. In his findings, Justice Gordon concluded that several of the loans based upon the deeds had been paid. He further concluded that thirty-five $15 notes held by Clarence DeVeile, 1837 Seventh Street, Northwest, should be delivered to the woman and the trust seeming them should be released on the record. Three Defendants Named Mrs. Martin filed her original suit on August 21, 1931, naming as defendants: Clarence M. DeVeile, 1837 Seventh Street, Northwest; J. Hayden Johnson, trustee, 1842 Vermont Avenue, Northwest; and A.

T. Taylor, Deposed Official, Holds Combination of Safe Echoes of the attempts of the board of directors of the Federal Life Insurance Company to oust their secretary-manager, C. T. Taylor, as part of a so-called "retrenchment policy" reached a new climax, Thursday morning, when the locks on the company's doors were found to be changed. In addition, Mrs. M. H. Pratt, cashier, was sent a communication by Dr. Carroll A. Brooks, president, stating that the services of Mr. Taylor had terminated at the close of business on June 7. She was advised that S. Cunningham, former assistant to Mr. Taylor, had been appointed general manager for the time being. Mrs. Pratt was also warned not to allow any papers or anything of value to be taken from the offices. In a statement to The Tribune, Mr. Taylor said: "They have locked me out." Henry Lincoln Johnson, attorney for the directors, when questioned as to the action of the officials, stated: "I have no statement to make just at the present time. The doors are open as one can see for himself if he should go down there." Locks on Doors Changed The changing of the locks followed a meeting of the board of directors, Wednesday night. At the meeting, the by-laws were amended, according to reports, so as to give the board the power to dismiss any officer or any employee. Mr. Taylor is said to have questioned this procedure as not being the order of business. After the adoption of the amendment, Mrs. Jesse Foster, chairman of the executive committee, offered a resolution declaring the office of secretary-manager abolished, and ordering that the keys and the combination to the company's safe, etc. be turned over to the president. Mr. Taylor, according to his statement, was denied a copy of the resolution (which is said to have made a charge of alleged misconduct in office) upon the ground that the president would have to consult a legal advisor. Mr. Taylor has refused to turn over the keys or give the combination to the safe upon the repeated requests of the president. He took the position that being the only bonded officer of the company, he (Continued on page 2). Son Asks Tribune to Help Locate Father Charles E. Smith, an inmate at Lorton Reformatory asked the Tribune this week to help him locate his father. In a letter to The Tribune, Smith writes: "I have been trying to get in touch with my father, John D. Smith. His address when I heard from him last was 2727 Sherman Avenue, Northwest, but he has moved and his present address is unknown to me." Persons having knowledge of Mr. Smith's where abouts are requested to write his son, Box 25, Lorton, Va. or the Washington Tribune. Price 7 cents Copy FIRST VICTORY IN EIGHT YEARS FOR TECH CADETS For the first time in eight years Armstrong High School won the annual competitive drill and a crowd of 15,000 cheered as Captain Frederick Young, commanding Company D, 25th Regiment, was presented with a gold medal symbolizing victory at the forty-first event, which was held in the American League Park, Thursday afternoon. The Tech cadets came from their seven-year slump with a vengeance and not only copied first, sward, but made a clean sweep of the entire drill by winning second and third places. Company E, commanded by Captain Oscar Piper, won second aware., while Company C, commanded by Captain Lawrence Tyson, took third honors. Judges were Captain Wilbur F. Lucas, 369th Infantry, New York; Captain Clinton Peterson, of the same regiment; and Lieutenant Richard Owens, of the New Jersey National Guard. Alternates were Lieutenant Sylvester T. Blackwell, 372nd Infantry; Lieut. David W. Adams, professor of military science and tactics, Rock Castle, Virginia. One of the largest crowds in the history of the drill turned out to view the program. Although the day was hot there were no prostrations from the heat reported. The Armstrong victory breaks a winning streak by Dunbur which started in 1926. The previous year Tech was the winner. The silent drill which is always a feature drew its share of applause as a company of non-commissioned officers went through the manual of arms and other movements without an audible command. The saber drill by commissioned officers, an added feature this year, drew a big hand from the crowds. Seen at the Drill Among the notables seen at the drill Thursday were: The Rev. F. L. A. Bennett, Dr. J. Hayden Johnson, and M. Whitwell, members of the board of education; Col. Wm. Hayward, of the 369th Infantry, New York; Col. C. E. N. Howard, son of Gen. O. O. Howard; Dr. Frank W.

Fights in Scottsboro and Euel Lee Cases CHATTANOOGA, Tenn.—R. C. Hawkins, a retired mail carrier, was accepted Mo. day as a juror after eleven white men had been selected to hear charger of burglary against a Negro. The defendant was found guilty. This is the first time that a Negro has been placed on a jury since the Reconstruction period following the Civil War. Because of the jim crow system prevailine in public places, the jury was not sent out to a restaurant to eat. Instead, meals were brought direct to the jury room by court attendants. The International Labor Defense in the Scottboro, Euel Lee and Herndon cases sharply raised the demand for Negroes on the jury.

CAPITAL VIEW REALTY COMPANY National 9590 927 New York Avenue, N.W. TRICKY PROVISION AN INTELLIGENCE TEST, SAY JUDGES Not Based on Creed or Color, Opinion Declares (Special to The Tribune) NEW ORLEANS, La.-Louisiana's "understanding clause" in the state election laws, through which Negroes are barred from the polls, was upheld as constitutional, Monday, in a decision handed down by the Fifth U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals, sitting here. The court held the clause to be "an intelligence test only, denying to none the equal protection of the law," and ruled that the clause was "not based on creed or color," but on an intelligence test of the person applying for registration to vote. The opinion, written by Justice Nathan P. Bryan, and concurred in by Justices Rufus F. Foster and Joseph C. Hutchenson, Jr., held: Not Based on Color "The section is one which is a test only of intelligence and applies to all voters alike, denying to none of them the equal protection of the law...." "The Louisiana constitution protects every citizen who desires to register from being arbitrarily denied that right by the registrar of voters....He can appeal to the trial courts of the state for relief if denied, and submit his case to a jury." "The ruling held the understanding clause to be essentially different in aim and operation from the "grandfather clause" of Oklahoma and a similar clause of the Maryland constitution. Negro Filed Suit It was also held in the opinion that Antoine M. Trudeau, a colored man, who brought suit against C. S. Barnes, white, registrar of voters of Orleans Parish, to force the registrar to permit him to register, had not exhausted his legal remedies in state courts. Mr. Vrudeau's mandamus suit was filed directly in the federal court, and was dismissed on the grounds that he had not sought remedies in state courts. Mr. Trudeau immediately appealed the case, and Monday's ruling upheld the decision of the lower federal court. Whether or not the case will be carried to the U. S. Supreme Court has not yet been determined. TRIO BREAK RIB OF MAN, 65, TAKE $14 FROM HIS POCKET Walking, complacently along, Alexander; Pugh, 65, of 1007 Seventh Street, Northwest, was accosted by three men at South Capitol Street and Virginia Avenue, Southeast, Saturday, about 8:30 p.m., one of whom asked him concerning a street of which he had never heard. As he expressed negrets for his ignorance, another of the trio produced a brick with which he struck the elderly man, knocking him to the ground. Pugh was further maltreated by the men before they took $14 from his pocket and fled. Pugh was treated at Gallinger Hospital, where an X-ray was to be taken to discover whether or not he had a broken rib as it is believed. One culprit is described as being brown skin, 25 or 30 years of age, weighing 160 pounds, wearing dark clothes, and a straw hat. The other two are also dark-skinned and were wearing overalls.

Captain Napoleon B. Marshall, World War Vet., Dies in New York Captain Napoleon B. Marshall, World War Vet., Dies in New York Succumbed to Injuries Incident to Over-Sea Service; Was Champion Runner, Prominent in Public Affairs, and Military Attache in Haiti Captain Napoleon B. Marshall died Monday, June 5, at the Veterans' Hospital, Bronx, N.Y., as the final result of his World War injuries. His remains lay in state in the 369th Regiment Armory, Wednesday, and were sent to Washington for interment in Arlington Cemetery. Captain Marshall was born in Washington, D.C., and was 57 years of age. Finished the public schools, entered Exeter Academy in Massachusetts, graduated from Harvard College in 1897, and Harvard Law School in 1899. While at Harvard he distinguished himself as one of the greatest track stars in the country, and was the champion quarter miler in the East. Was captain in the 369th Infantry of the 93rd Division, A.E.F.; served in the campaigns in the Marine defensive and, the Sector D'Afrique until July 21, 1918, when he was wounded. He was transferred to the 92nd Division in August, 1918, and served with Company A, 365th Infantry in the St. Die Sector, and the Meuse Argonne offensive until injured, October 22, 1918, and was evacuated to the hospital. He returned to the United States December 9, 1918, seriously wounded, and was honorably discharged May 16, 1919. He was paralyzed on one side, June, 1930, and after ten months in Walter Reed Hospital, he returned to New York. Captain Marshall, while a resident of this city was prominent in civic affairs, especially those pertaining to the public schools. He assisted the late Senator Joseph B. Foraker in his long and unsuccessful fight to secure justice for the men of the 24th U. S. Infantry, who were framed and dishonorably discharged for alleged participation in the shooting up of Brownsville, Texas, in 1906. Mr. Marshall, with a companion, made a visit incognito to Brownville in an effort to determine the facts in the case. His testimony in the long drawn out Senate investigation was sensational, but Senator Foraker failed to get a completely favorable report. The latter's long fight, however, served to make him for a time the idol of the colored people, although it perhaps cost him the expected nomination for the Presidency, since both Theodore Roosevelt, then President, and Taft, his secretary of war, were set against the colored soldiers. After recovering somewhat from injuries incident to his over-sea service, Captain Marshall served as military attache to the American Legation in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, from 1922 to 1929. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Harriet Gibbs Marshall, of this city, who was at his bedside during his last serious illness, which lasted twelve days. He leaves also a sister, Mrs. Alenza Diggs, of Oklahoma City, Okla., and a brother, Leland Marshall, of New York City. Stay for Euel Lee Granted by Governor BALTIMORE, Md.—A stay of execution of Euel Lee (Orphan Jones) convicted on a murder charge, was granted from Governor Albert C. Ritchie last week. The stay postponed the execution, set originally for June 2, until June 16. In the meantime, the Governor promised Bernard Ades, International Labor Defense counsel with Carol Weis King for, Lee, a further stay would be granted if the United States Supreme Court failed to act soon on the writ of certiorari already docketed on behalf of Lee as a preliminary to obtaining a review of his conviction. Huge demonstrations of black and white workers were held here Saturday, to demand Lee's freedom as well as the release of the Scottsboro boys and of Tom Mooney. Frank Spector, of the National Office of the LL.D., William N. Jones, of the Afro-American, and Gough McDaniels, treasurer of the National Scottsboro Action Committee were among the speakers.

LuVALLE At the last meeting of the Federated Civic Associations, at the District Building, the association adopted a resolution, offered by B. T. Montgomery to award a certificate of merit each year to the colored citizens of the District who, "Out of the Spirit of Altruism, Has Performed the Most Outstanding Work for Negroes During the Year." A committee was appointed to work out the details of the award. Those on the committee are George T. Beason, B. T. Montgomery and Edward H. Lawson. The Federated Civic Association is composed of nineteen local civic associations of Negroes, so allotted in territory as to cover the District of Columbia and not overlap each other in their effort to serve the citizens here. The association was organized eleven years ago, with Dr. George H. Richardson as its first president. He served in that capacity for ten years and declined to stand for re-election last December, when George Beasley was elected president. Federation is Semi-Official These civic associations are the only contact the citizens of Washington have with their city government. The federated association is made up of five delegates from each of the local associations. The federation in turn has three delegates on the advisory council to the District Commissioners. Therefore an award coming from the Federated Civic Associations will be an award from the colored citizens of the District of Columbia. The local associations pay an annual fee of $3.00 which gives the individual association legal recognition in the federation, for their five delegates. At this meeting, George Beason, a charter member of the federation fro mthe Rock Creek Civic Association, offered a motion to have the civic associations of Howard Park and Potomac Park voted out of the federation because they represented so much "dead wood." The Howard Park association was upheld by J. T. Cuney, of the Bloomingdale association, who offered to prove that the Howard Park association was still alive by escorting Mr. Beason to one of its meetings. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JUNE 9, 1933 DePRIEST SPEAKS AT SALISBURY, N.C. DECORATION DAY Urges Negroes to Register and Vote Independently; Scores Communism SALISBURY, N.C.—The Negro citizens of North Carolina paid tribute to the Federal soldiers who died in the cause of freedom here on Decoration Day at the Federal Cemetery. The celebrations began in Salisbury immediately after the Civil War and have continued since. This year the activities other than those at the cemetery were centered on Livingstone College campus, where stood a Confederate prison camp during the Civil War, and it is definitely known that the son of David Livingstone, the great African missionary and explorer, died in this prison camp. A parade through the business section of Salisbury preceded the ceremony at the cemetery. There were numerous floats from all over the county and state, all taking as their motif some phase of the Negro's development since 1619. Orged Negroes to vote In the afternoon, at the Living-stone College auditorium, Congressman Oscar DePriest was the principal speaker. Throughout his address he kept driving home the importance of Negroes registering and voting in local and national elections. He said that he believed that Negroes should put their friends in office regardless of their party affiliations. He said that there is not much possibility of organizing a Republican party in the South since it is asking too much of the Southern white man to forget the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln, Jeff Davis, and Robert E. Lee so soon. "The fact is," said Mr. DePriest, "there is much more objection to the Lily White Republican than to the honest Democrat. I don't think there is such a thing as an honest-to-God Southern white Republican. He is just an office seeker." Next, Mr. DePriest turned his attention to the Communists and attacked them furiously. He scored them for exploiting the Scottboro case, while, however, admitting that they had done some good. He spoke also of the amendment which he had introduced in Congress which would allow Federal courts jurisdiction and allow them to jurisdiction to transfer cases from one state to another. PARISH MEMBER TELLS (Continued from page 1) (Continued from page 1) tire matter was reported to the presiding officer, Bishop James Freeman, who sent word that if the matter was dropped he would remove the Rev. Mr. White from the parish. Mrs. Mitchell claimed that on advice of Bishop Freeman she refused to prosecute the rector and the case was nolle pressed in police court. Mr. White was sent to St. Monica, where he is now serving. He claimed he has suffered mentally as well as financially as a result of being arrested and has been pointed out on the street even by small children. Had Rector by Ear Mrs. Emma Smith, superintendent of the Sunday school of St. Phillips, testified that she had her back towards the rector and Mrs. Mitchell when the alleged first blows were struck, but when her attention was attracted by the commotion she saw the pastor with his arms around Mrs. Mitchell's neck and she had him by the ear. She said she assisted in separating the two combatants. Irving Goldstein, assistant United States Attorney, testified that he had the warrant issued for Mr. Whit's arrest after Mrs. Mitchell had come to his office and told him of the alleged assault. Violated Church Law Mrs. Jessie Frye, another St. Phillips' member, told the jury that she saw Mrs. Mitchell strike the pastor with an umbrella, but did not see the rector strike back. However, her daughter, Miss Roberta Frye, testified that she saw the woman hit the rector, but on cross examination stated that she was testifying what she had heard her mother say in discussing the matter. In explaining his remarks about her not being a fit person to lead young women, Mr. White stated that he was not referring to her character, but Mrs. Mitchell had not communed in two years, and this was a serious breach of the church law and automatically placed her out of membership. He said he was following the church law in refusing to sanction her as a leader of girls, as it is required that all members in good standing in the Protestant Episcopal Church must take the holy communion at stated periods, and Mrs. Mitchell had not kept this church requirement. The case was heard before Chief Justice George A. Aukam. Put a gun in the hands of the average person and he couldn't hit the side of a barn, but put an automobile in those same hands and a ninety-mile-an-hour express train is an easy target. New York Tourist Held In Fatal Va. Crash Lloyd Wade, 29, tourist of White Plains, N.Y., was held pending a coroner's inquest Sunday, after the machine he was driving rammed a parked car and caused the death of Henry F. Burke, 62, white who was sitting on the running board in Alexandria. Burke died instantly from a broken neck and fracture of both arms and legs. Wade denied that he had dropped asleep while driving when he appeared at the inquest. BALTOMORE'S HOWARD ALUMNI SCORE FLEXNER BALTOMORE'S HOWARD ALUMNI SCORE FLEXNER Trustees Head Asked to Recant Statement Made to Girls BALTIMORE. — Flaying both Dr. Abram Flexner, chairman of Howard University trustee board, and the administration for abolishing the School of Education and the School of Engineering, members of the Baltimore Howard University Alumni Association in caustic terms passed two resolutions here Thursday scoring recent actions taken by the university officials. The first resolution called on Dr. Flexner to a recent statement to young women of the university in which he told them they could quit if they did not like the way the school was run by the trustees. The women students wrote the trustee head a letter asking him to retain Dr. Dorothy Boulding Ferebee, physician to women, and pointed out that if the present male physician were placed on part time Dr. Ferebee's services could be retained on a like basis. The second resolution asked that the needs of the university be thoroughly studied before the two schools, education and engineering, be abolished. A. B. Koker introduced the resolutions and was elected a delegate to the general association which meets in Washington Thursday. Mrs. Marvis Evans was elected president of the Baltimore association; Avon Collins, vice-president; and Miss Mamie Carroll, secretary-treasurer. FEDERAL LIFE (Continued from page 1) should have a copy of the resolution and amended by-laws so that he might consult an attorney. Won't Give Up Keys The deposed secretary-manager contended further that he would keep the keys until an examination of the company's financial condition was made, so that he, his bonding company, and other interested persons might be protected. The differences between Mr. Taylor and the board of directors dates back to April of last year, when in a program of "effective retrenchment," Mr. Taylor's resignation was demanded. The secretary-manager retaliated by calling attention to certain alleged irregularities and criticised the board for not meeting regularly. In a prepared statement to the board, he set out how certain economies could be effected. On the former occasion, the resolution combining the office of secretary-manager with that of assistant secretary-manager, and demanding the resignation of Mr. Taylor was presented by Mrs. Foster. Bus Line Jim Crows Woman N.A.A.C.P. Files Suit CHICAGO, Ill.—Within three days after the Safeway Bus Lines had refused to allow Mrs. Callie Stevens, 5830 Calumet Avenue, this city, to occupy her regularly reserved seat in a bus to New York, the Chicago branch of the N.A.A.C.P. through its attorneys, William Temple and Irvin Mollison, filed suit for damages for her under the Illinois civil right act. Mrs. Stevens reserved seat No. 5, but when she arrived to take it and the driver found she was colored, she was told she had to change to the rear. She refused to move and the company then cancelled her passage to New York telling her she was being refused because she was colored.

MORNING GIVES SO MUCH FOR SO LITTLE Rent ASINO REST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL GARDEN SPECIALS CLAIMS DENTIST FAILED TO RETURN HER GOLD TEETH Members of Profession Say "Scrap" Metal Has Little Value Claiming that a valuable bridge was taken from her mouth at Garfield Hospital following an automobile accident, Mrs. Effe Malone, 1442 Swann Street, Northwest, asked The Tribune to aid her in having the bridge returned to her, this week. Mrs. Malone was injured in an automobile accident last September on the Baltimore boulevard en route to Washington. She was taken to the hospital, where it was found that her jaw was badly injured and her upper bridge in such condition that it had to be removed. She claimed that the bridge was removed by Dr. Joseph F. Manley, 1726 I Street, Northwest, and at the time her condition was such that she was unable to talk. Later she asked hospital authorities for the bridge which she claimed contained valuable gold. Hospital authorities refused her to Dr. Manley, who refused to return the bridge and denied he had taken it. Later, she said, Dr. Manley told her he had taken the bridge to his office and had sent the gold to the Philadelphia Mint to be refined. Mrs. Malone secured the services of Attorney J. Louis Taylor, but later employed Attorney James Tooney. Metal Sent to Mint When he was seen at his office by a Tribune reporter, Mr. Taylor refused to discuss the matter. Dr. Manley stated that he had sent the bridge to the mint and it was customary for dentists to follow this course in all cases where teeth containing gold are extracted. An investigation by The Tribune disclosed that this procedure is usually followed by other dentists, and Dr. R. M. West, 1900 block of Vermont Avenue, stated that he had a tray of such gold and bridge work. He said that dentists send this "scrap" to the mint where it is refined and returned. An entire tray full has little value and is worth little more than $2.50 or $3.00. Dr. West also told me Tribune reporter that most patients think they are paying for gold when the metal is placed in bridge work, but they are mistaken; the cost is for service rendered by the dentist and not the value of the gold which is in reality very little. Dr. Manley also told The Tribune that Attorney Taylor had given him a receipt for Mrs. Malone's bridge and he was under the impression that the matter was closed. Mrs. Malone contended that the bridge sent her contained six teeth, while the one taken from her mouth had four.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JUNE 9. 1933 Our Present-Day Colleges Turn Out Human Tin Cans President Johnson of Howard, in Baccalaureate Sermon, Says Educational System Too Mechanized, Approximating Mass Production THE BOWLING TEAM Left to right (bottom row)—Archie Rowley, George Crammer, William Cox, Nathaniel Crump; (Girls)—arah Latimore, Vivian Evans, Margaret Singleton, Evangeline James, Lillian Barkdale, Esther Smith, Hilda Miller; (Top row)—Herbert Frisby, Lacey Flagg, Henry Tompkins, Augustus Taylor, Lewis White; Clarence Spearing, Raymond Lord Mr. Raymond A. Lemmons, faculty sponson. Colleges are turning out graduates as human tint cans, meeting certain quantitative specifications, was the striking charge of Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, president of Howard University, in his baccalaureate sermon at the university last Sunday. Three thousand people sat in the warm sunshine in the stadium during the two-hour services, which began at 11 o'clock. President Johnson's subject was "The Primary Imperatives of Our Times." His text was taken from Isaiah 17-18, which begins with the striking words, "when the poor and needy seek for water and there is none." "There are times in the history of every nation when great objective distress is accompanied by deep spiritual dissatisfaction. People find themselves not only confronted with inadequate economic political, and family conditions, but literally parched with spiritual thirst for a faith adequate to meet the needs of their lives. In such a time we live. Like untapped springs in the hills the elements of such a faith lie before us, waiting for a medium of life through competent thinkers. Wells are Not Dry "In the United States we are suffering from economic distress. The masses of the people are half-clothed, inadequately fed, losing their homes, and losing their confidence in the economic philosophy which inspired their fathers. "But for the first time in history in the midst of their distress they strangely realize that the wells of economic sustenance are not dry, that the troubles which they are having are due to no shortage of physical and intellectual resources. "On the other hand, for the first time in the history of the world, it has been clearly revealed to them that there are enough natural, scientific, and technical resources at our disposal to enable every man, woman and child in their country to earn a normal living, and to be secure in old age with about five hours work a day for six days a week or less. "When any such realization as this comes over a generation, it is borne down upon intelligent men and women of that generation as a spiritual imperative of paramount significance." Referring to the much controverted subject of communism which he has been reported lately as endorsing unreservedly, Dr. Johnson said: Not a Communist "I am not a communist. I am always on my guard against any dogmatic panacea for the settlement of the complex difficulties which confront us in the modern world. On the other hand, I am not in accord with those who believe that the best way to deal with communism is to persecute those who believe in it. And I am not of the opinion that patriotism requires any thoughtful man to subscribe to the doctrine that there is nothing good to be found in the Russian experiment. "The determination of the leaders of this movement to make use of modern scientific and technical resources to emancipate the masses of the people from poverty and its ills, including the disease of acquisitiveness, is a commanding undertaking which no modern nation can ignore. The enthusiasm and devotion with which they give themselves to their major purpose is suggestive of the kind of idealism which religion has always felt to be precious. "The way to meet this new movement is not to persecute those who believe in it, or merely to focus attention upon the errors and perversities which may appear therein, but to beget on our own soil and in a manner consistent with the religious and political beliefs of our fathers, a movement which sets forth objectives no less splendid than which can arouse the whole-hearted allegiance of our citizens. Many able men in America are trying to do this. Their work is timely, their patriotism is wise, and their following will increase." Educational Procedure Faulty "A third imperative of our times," said Dr. Johnson, "is the urgency to think out an educational procedure which will effectively issue in the unfolding and individuation of human personality. In America we are justly proud of our educational statistics. We point with satisfaction to the number of children in school, to the multitude of well-built school houses, and to the specialized competence of our teachers. "But in our best moments we know that our educational system is over-mechanized and altogether too heavily dominated by utilitarian motives. When the time comes, as it surely will, that the economic and political systems co-operate to reduce the hours of labor necessary to make a secure living, the whole quantitative structure of education to make a living will be in position to die a natural death. "We shall then get busy with the greatest enterprise of human existence—the training of the individual for the outflowering and individuation of his natural aptitudes, so that he may live a good, intelligent, and beautiful life. We shall then slow down the quantitative pace, differentiate the process and sit with eagerness before the individual child, encouraging, persuading and waiting until its original beauty comes forth and shines." Graduates by Mass Production Pressing the matter further, Dr Johnson said: "We are all conscious today that the educational system in America is turning-out children in a manner which too much approximates mass production, like Ford turning out automobiles. For a long time we have been turning out college graduates as human tin cans, meeting certain quantitative specifications. They have been given a certain number of class periods, in a certain number of subjects, and have made their thirty-six units." **Exercises on Open Stadium** The exercises were held in the open stadium at the north end. A platform was erected on the grass, covered by an awning. The graduates sat in square formation before the stand and the faculty and their families sat back of the graduates. The visitors sat on the stadium scats in a semi-circle around the stand. Amplifiers were in use so that the words of the speakers and the songs were heard by everyone. The program opened with the processional. Invocation was by the Rev. L. Z. Johnson, of the faculty. The anthem "Omnipotence," by Schubert, was sung by the university choir. There was scripture reading and prayer by the Rev. W. C. Gordon, of the faculty. The sermon by the president was followed by an anthem "Sanctus," by Goundn, sung by the university choir. Then followed benediction and recessional. WILMINGTON, Del. — (CNS) The report emenating from Hampston that Allison W. Davis, instructor at Hampton Institute, on leave in Germany, and his wife, formerly Miss Elizabeth Stubbs of this city had not been heard from for the past two months and were in grave danger in Germany, is denied by Mrs. J. B. Stubbs, Mrs. Davis's mother. According to Mrs. Stubbs, Mr. and Mrs. Davis who are students in Berlin, were treated more cordially in Germany than in England, and although they have witnessed many Nazi demonstrations, they have had no cause for fear. RICHMOND TO GET NEGRO ASSISTANT SCHOOL PRINCIPAL Colored Heads of Schools to Be Appointed as Whites Die or Resign RICHMOND, Va.—Coming fast on the heels of the demise of Albert H. Hill, white, veteran superintendent of the Richmond public school system, was the announcement that a Negro will be named assistant principal of Moore Street School, to serve under H. C. Carlton, aged present white principal of the school who will probably be retired at the end of the 1933-34 session. Mr. Carlton has been in poor health for several years. Due to the fact that he is at present practically incapacitated, Richmond colored citizens were inclined to believe that he would be retired at the end of the past session. The present action by the school board, at the behest of the assistant superintendent, is described by some as a "tiny sop of gravy to quiet the clamor of colored citizens for principals of their own color." Persons Not Selected The appointment of an assistant principal at Moore Street is the only action expected to be taken this year, barring the death or resignation of one of the present white principals, in connection with the school board's promise to place Negro principals in the schools for Negro children when the whites die or resign. All of the white principals who have heretofore held positions in Negro schools, together with their assistants, have been reappointed for the 1933-34 session. CAPITOL VIEW NEWS The U.V.W.

The Community Centers Band, under the leadership of Prof. James E. Miller, has established itself as an institution in our city—and one of which every citizen should be proud. The Tribune is gratified that its thirteen years of service to this community should be thus recognized. Too Much Nursing Speaking recently at the Western University Club, in New York City, Dr. Robert Maynard Hutchins, president of the University of Chicago, said, as reported in the New York Times: "To develop the educational aspects of the English system, with separate faculties, separate libraries, and to some extent separate courses of study, is far too expensive for the West. "The direction which higher education may take there, particularly in the metropolitan universities, seems more likely to be toward the Continental and Scottish scheme, under which little effort is made to arrange, supervise or control the living habits of students, and the entire attention of the institution is devoted to giving them the best teachers that can be found. "Any such development in the West will require of course some changes in the attitude of our constituency. Higher learning in America now calls for a large amount of nursing. Universities have developed the idea in parents or parents have forced it upon the universities that the institution is in some way responsible for the moral, social, physical and intellectual welfare of the student. This is very nice for the parents; it is bad for the universities, for besides being expensive, it deflects them from their main task, which is the advancement of knowledge. "Parents whose children have neither character nor intellectual interest should keep them at home or send them to another kind of institution. Whatever may be the responsibilities of a college, a university is not a custodial establishment, or a church, or a body-building institute. If it were free to stop behaving as though it were it would be a better university." The strictures of Dr. Hutchins applies with double force to our own institutions of learning. This is reflected in the fact that up until the present it has been taken for granted that our college presidents must be first of all ministers, at least; if bishops, all the better. There is of course no reason why a preacher may not also be an educator, but the latter qualification is usually treated as secondary if not actually inconsequential. Many, maybe all, of our deans of men and deans of women, preceptors and preceptresses are estimable and worthy persons, but the fact that such are needed, if they are, in a college is evidence that the institution has, or the administrators think it has, persons on its rolls who have no business in its classrooms. In Scotland and on the Continent, especially in Germany, no such functionaries are known; and even if the moral atmosphere in those schools is less wholesome—though there is no evidence that it is—the intellectual influences and results are admittedly far higher. Dr. Carter Woodson insists that we imitate in our schools and colleges what others are doing, or better said, have done. Why could not our colleges lead the way by clearing out all the students who need watching and coddling? Such a procedure is coming soon, in fact is in use, partially, in Dr. Hutchins's own school. Why can't we be in the van? Old Stuff A release from Tuskegee Institute quotes liberally from the baccalaureate sermon delivered there by Dr. M. Ashby Jones, honorary president of the Commission on Interracial Co-operation with headquarters in Atlanta. The doctor said some commendable things, but in his effort to dey the use of force to resist and resent injustices and deprivations he attempted to show that the Civil War "retarded the real freedom" of the race. He said: "Without claiming any self-righteous superiority of our fathers, but from the vantage ground of today—with seventy-five years of perspective and enlightenment of experience—we may view the Civil War as a tragedy in American life. "While holding the highest respect and deepest admiration for the motives which actuated the contestants—a fight for freedom on the one side and a defense of native land on the other—I shall never believe that fratricidal war was necessary for the abolition of slavery, which can be its only justification. I dare assert that it retarded the real freedom of the Negro race. The invasion of the South by Northern armies, not only inflamed the hatred of the South for the North, but, making the freedom of the Negro the justification of that invasion, it kindled the first flames of enmity between the races." Now this gabble about the "invasion" of the Northern armies being responsible for the present-day oppression and exploitation of the Negro in the South is old stuff. Of course this kind-hearted Baptist expaster has probably brought himself to believe in his theory; but inasmuch as both by the teachings of history and by the testimonies of our grandparents—slave and free —who lived in the South in the two or three decades preceding the Civil War, we know that the rigors and cruelties of slavery grew steadily worse, and that laws, decisions and practices were bent more and more toward riveting the chains on our ancestors' limbs. The Dred Scott decision preceded the "invasion" of the South by a scant five years. It would be an achievement for any of the persons with the faith, hope, or charity of Dr. Jones to point to some indication that the South—which was of course dominated by the slaveholders—was showing any signs of relenting in its evident determination to hold on to the institution of slavery and even force it into the free West and North. Perhaps after the Civil War matters might have been better managed—and would have been had the South courageously faced its defeat and given fruits meet for repentance. But to charge the patriots whose graves we decorated the other day with having given justification for present conditions in the Black Belt is to demonstrate grievous or defiant ignorance. A Bit of American Hitlerism Although colored folk in common with the rest of the citizenry have, rejoiced to see President Roosevelt taking the lead in a vigorous effort to put the nation and the civilized world on the road to better things, yet it was with deep regret and chagrin that they noted his slip of two weeks ago in his request of Congress to give him permission to name a governor for Hawaii who may not be a resident of the islands. In stating reasons for asking a change in the law, he was not as frank as is his wont to be. He put the matter on the ground that it is "particularly necessary to select...a man of experience and vision who will be regarded by all citizens of the islands as one who will be absolutely impartial in his decisions on matters as to which there may be a difference of local opinion." The Massie case, though seemingly in deference to American prejudices handled by the Hawaiian governor as leniently as decency could be stretched to permit, has apparently given rise to a fear that another such might not be dealt with by some future governor so cravenly. Nowhere under our flag is there so little color or race prejudice as on these islands, nor such an inextricable mixture of white, yellow, black and brown, living, working and intermarrying together; and it is that very cosmopolitanism that excites the malevolent wrath of the one hundred per centers here. Although the President's measure received a set-back in the House this week, it is quite likely to pass the Congress finally It is hoped that even if the proposed change in the law prevails, that Mr. Roosevelt will not avail himself of the privilege of slapping the Hawaiians—an inferentially all colored and mixed peoples—in the face. He has in other cases admitted making errors. It is hoped that he will do likewise in this case which smacks of Hitlerism. Nor "Color" Brigadier General Charles Sherrill, the United States delegate, arrived in Vienna the other day to attend a meeting of the International Olympic Committee. One of the chief questions to be discussed was Germany's reputed refusal to permit any Jews of that nation to compete in the games, which are scheduled to take place in Berlin in 1936. It was assumed that Germany would not attempt to bar Jews that were representing any other nations, but Gen. Sherrell said the Germans would be compelled to let down the bars for their own also or the games would probably be moved to some other place. The President of the international committee, Count Henri de Baillet-Latour, requested the general to make a report on the American view. A cablegram to the American Olympic Committee brought this reply: "The American Olympic Committee feels that no amateur should be barred from the games because of race, creed or color." Thus the committee goes Gen. Sherrell one better by including "color" as well as race and creed.

Higher Education for Negroes Will Justify Itself Only in Self Sacrificing Service. By the time this release is in print the commencement mill will be grinding out graduates. About two thousand colored students will receive collegiate or professional degrees during the month of June. "What are these graduates going to do?" constitutes the great consuming question. There are estimated to be two million Negro unemployed. These are distributed among the whole range of listed occupations from the bottom of the scale to the upper rung of professional service. Teaching and medicine absorb the greater portion of Negro graduates. There will probably be fewer vacancies in the teaching ranks this year than at any time since pedagogy began to assume professional rank. There will be few attractive openings in the medical profession. Those already in the practice are experiencing great difficulty in keeping up the practice on the former scale of living. The pulpits which at best receive only a moiety of collegiate graduates will experience greater difficulty this year on account of reduced circumstances among the people who must furnish the wherewithal. It is needless to mention the law and other scattered professional pursuits which are furnishing a bare subsistence for those already enrolled.

Herein the Negro college is sad step with the requirements of the age And so the ambitious June graduates of 1933 face a rather gloomy prospect. We are all hoping and praying for the ushering in of better times. But no one of less than the traditional Hoover optimism now dreams of the return of the good old days of twenty-nine. The most serious question which we should now be pondering is what will be the place of the Negro in the new order of things which seems certain to be ushered in, and how is his present educational machinery calculated to adapt him for that place? Our scholastic programs were planned on the old New England classical mold. The Hampton-Tuskegee regime caused great adjustment in these programs. The coming and going of the World War caused still greater reshaping to meet the exigencies of the changed outlook of affairs. Whatever the future may have in store, we can hardly think of the time when well educated ministers, doctors, teachers, lawyers, and the like, will not be demanded in requisite numbers. But what was once the main task has now become the incident of education. Men of light and learning will be in demand to equip the whole sphere of service and leadership. Herein the Negro college is sadly out of step with the requirements of the age. NONE OF US ABLE TO PROSECUTE PURE RESEARCH The Negro graduate without a spe fession finds little or no place to utili ploit his education. There is no leis among us who are able to prosecute and research for the pure love of Negro graduate must first make a li a career afterwards.

The Negro graduate without a specific profession finds little or no place to utilize or exploit his education. There is no leisure class among us who are able to prosecute learning and research for the pure love of it. The Negro graduate must first make a living and a career afterwards. Finding no remunerative opening he will be forced to fall back on the lower levels of service which serve to discredit the learning which he is supposed to have acquired. We may look to see Negro masters of arts waiting table and doctors of philosophy as Pullman porters. If such numbming pursuits but served to spur their desire for the pursuit of truth and knowledge, it might be pleasing to contemplate even these things, but, alas, they are more likely to have a benumbing effect and to chill to the freezing point zeal and ambition for the pursuit for pure and unalloyed learning.

The salary is the ideal sought after rather than the service. The Presbyterian ministry among Negroes represents today the best illustration of sacrifice and unrewarded devotion among educated Negroes. Look around and you will see this principle exemplified in all parts of the country. If the higher education of the Negro is to justify itself in the future, it will not be in connection with money making opportunities but rather in connection with self-sacrificing service. If the big idea shall be, not, how much money can I earn? but, how much service can I render? then the field opens up with unlimited bigness. Never was the harvest field whiter nor the qualified laborers fewer than today. But the zeal must be for the labor rather than the hire. The nation-wide depression is teaching the genuine value of sacrifice and poorly remunerated service. All must work for less than hitherto. The future promises less and less rather than more and more. Our talented tenth must be taught the value and advantage of service to others rather than to self. Imbued with this spirit there can never be too many educated men and women. But if the job-objective be the end of education and if the value of service is to be appraised by the pay check, then the more education we get the greater will become the disappointment and vexation of spirit. Our colleges and universities will have to readjust their programs so that our graduates will be sent out into the world with the requisite spirit of sacrifice and devotion to recruit the service line, with or without hope of material reward. Thus the bread line will be robbed of its terror. Has the Negro College Student Come of Age? First of Series of Four Articles By F. H. HAMMURABI ROBB International Author, Traveler and Lecturer Has the Negro college student and graduate come of Age? Does he think? Does he know himself? Does he lead or seek the line of least resistance? Can he distinguish knowledge from ignorance? Can he see human limitations, especially his own? Is he sophisicated, garrulous, jazz mad and naive? Can he defend himself against superstition, and profit by the mistakes of history? Is he vitally interested in sacrificing for the emancipation of the masses? Anywhere in America look around at students and alumni. Are the co-eds coddled, cunning and cowed ready to follow the master who offers most for least? Are the college students that you know marked by an absence of credulity and complacency? Are they satisfied grown up babies or untiring seekers after truth? Degree Mills Are Working Overtime If you have any misgiving as to how to answer these questions fairly and squarely attend any Negro college campus during May and June any year. This year, insite of the depression the harvest is ripe. Diploma mills are busy pouring out degrees, bachelors of artlessness, bachelors of se nselessness. Eager parents grow excited as bells ring and their sons and daughters walk across the platform to get a meaningless sheepskin, a symbol of two out of four of the best years of one's life wasted. Commencement speakers ballyhoo their platitudes such as: You are the saviors of humanity; without you prosperity will never return, civilization will die and Flanders field would not have been. The 2,000 farmers, washerwomen and handful of professional men aplaud as the orator of the hour enumerates the achievements of Bunkum University, her innumerable graduates, her great expanse in buildings and remarkable alumni who finally rest in America's Hall of Fame. Are Colleges Worth Money Spent There? Over a thousand colored youths will be turned out of colleges and universities this year. Twenty-five thousand will be left as undergraduates, with less than three hundred in institutions taught and directed by whites. Over seventeen thousand have already some sort of degree from schools of higher learning. Yet fifteen million people in this country look to these leaders to emancipate them from a most damnable system of exploitation, anywhere to be found, in the world based on segregation, discrimination, lynching open shop and injustice. From the time John B. Russwurm got his degree in 1827 from Bowdin College, descendants of Africans for over a hundred years have been high-brow with superiority complex and an infant'. IQ. Hence, in their mad rush for ease and comfort, they lack the stamina to insist on a basic change in the system under which masses still grovel in peonage and share cropping or in open shop misery because college graduates have neglected them. Misfits, Misleaders, and Morons What will trained youth do to bring Heaven to earth, check orators and get more action, curb insults, insecurity, insincerity, infantalism, waste on funerals, an economy based on production for use and not for profit? How will they encourage freedom of speech and press on campuses, as to the way to produce as well as to consume, eliminate individualism for teamwork, to clear up dens and vice, to get rid of corrupt politicians and quacks of a hundred varieties and save the race from a perilous seemingly ruinous future There was a youth conference in New York during Easter weekend with an excellent representation, but it ended in more gestures, speeches and resolutions. There will be another International Negro Youth Conference in Chicago, June 20-23. What will its answer be to the present plight of the Negro while the World's Fair displays in the Windy City, a century of Progress? Do you think they will dare do anything more than speak about the burdens of this uncontrolled, unplanned unwieldy machine age all but crushing Negro youth and students in this country, in Liberia, the Congo, South Africa, East Africa, Haiti, Cuba, the Virgin Islands? What will they do about the Scottboro boys, the Berwyn (Pa.) School Case, Herndon in Atlanta, the Brookwood Labor College, an endowed organ, an exchange of students, an international house? In all probability youth will run force the challenge. After all, a handful of college students might serve as the yeast to skir a nation. But have they the guts of a Lovejoy, a Frederick Digesting the News By Clifford C. Mitchell Preparing to Leave Prison Never did I even dream that when Mrs. Cannady-Franklin, opened the columns of her Portland (Oregon) Advocate and commenced publishing this column, a little over three years ago, that my writings would attract the attention of readers throughout America as they have. When I sent my first copy to the Advocate I mentioned in a letter to the editor that if before I left prison I could get my writings in as many as twenty-five different papers that I would consider my efforts a success. Now that I am preparing to leave prison I am publishing a brief summary showing the extent that my writings have been used: "Digesting the News"—in one hundred and two publications: “Prisons and Prisoners”—in thirty-seven publications: “This and That”—in twenty-four publications, and short stories, feature articles, and personal sketches, in seven magazines and special publications. If, upon my entrance into Negro journalism, as a free man, I can continue, expand and more adequately develop my writings and my service to the colored publications and their readers, and at the same time earn enough to keep the wolf away from the door and pay my just debts, I shall be exceedingly happy for in writing I have found something that I love to do and I have wanted to do all of my life. Already, even before the prison gates are open to me, two commercial writing offers have reached me. Mr. Crews, editor of the Bronzeman, wants me to write a series of articles reflecting my reaction to freedom, etc. And from Miami, Florida, a telegram has been received announcing the establishment of a new daily there and asking me to wire them a column daily. This I am already doing, and incidentally it is the first request I have ever received to wire copy. When I receive a copy of this new daily I will tell my readers more about it. I take this means of thanking the various newspaper publishers throughout the country who have featured my coming release in news stories and editorial comment. And I also thank my many readers who have already showered me with congratulations. Particular thanks are extended to the Jackson Prison officials who are making my last prison days so congenial, and to the inmate$_{g}$ who are showering me with little gifts that will come in handy after my release. Harry H. Pace, president of the Supreme Liberty Life Insurance Company, my benefactor and sponsor of my efforts while I shall be on parole, advises me that working facilities have already been arranged for me in their office, and I am asking all of my reader friends to drop me a line. My address will be, Clifford C. Mitchell 3507 South Parkway, Chicago, Illinois. Thaddeus Stevens or a Sojourner Truth?? Can you consider them a pile of Douglass, a Wendell Phillips, a fagots which might be kindled by enthusiasm and become a great light shining and beckoning? Hardly. For the most part they thrive on beautiful campuses, do just enough to get by, attend all the hops, dress in all sorts of sissy-fied clothes, have no philosophy of life, foster social castes through fraternities, sororities, spend too much for proms which plays an important part in present day college life. Blackjack, poker, bridge, and pinocle are the fads. Loose lipped cigarette smokers among both sexes are rapidly increasing. Youth is becoming soft. The hip flask is still prevalent. Much time is spent extolling commercialized sports, in building stadiums, and in forefishing and bluffing. But these campus sheiks and brownskins belles with inflated egos come out to face a puzzled, complicated and unintelligible world teaming with problems which do not seem quite like those they had prepared for. The most of them only have a smattering of knowledge but are unable to think. Certainly [they are] not cultured. Nine-tenths use an abundance of slang and their English vocabulary is atrocious. They are unable to name a dozen prose and fiction writers of the group, and would miserably fail in writing a fifteen hundred-word paper of people of the West Indies, South America, or Africa. What do they know about Japan, Russia, China and India—the civilizations that challenge the West? Two-thirds of them would fail two months after graduation in a comprehensive examination on any subject they have taken. These youngsters haven't come of age—still frivolous, chattering, poorly equipped irresponsible asses. Be patient with the shortcomings of others but impatient with your own.

They have been manufacturing pants for the depression army of reforestation. Numerous complaints have condemned the establishments sweatshops. We wonder if the good Secretary knows that, as bad as they may be and as much as Negroes sweat and pant, they are barred. Just imagine, we got a break over the ether. We are now in touch with the professor who took Eddie Cantor on a trip to Mars, about a month ago. He tells us that the people on Mars do everything backwards. For instance, he says that when they greet another, instead of "Hello" they would say "Lo-Hel." Further, he insists that, through observation, he has discovered some Martians on earth disguised as Negro politicians. Of course we laughed thinking it one of the professor's astronomical jokes; even so we asked why he was so certain. Professor explained, that as a rule all politicians raise campaign funds before elections, and if their party is victorious, they afterward enjoy the spoils. He continues (reading from as- IN THE REALM OF BOOKS IN THE REALM OF BOOKS By C. LESLIE FRAZIER Maxwell Anderson, one of the authors of the still remembered "What Price Glory" has just been awarded the Pulitzer Prize for his newest play, "Both Your Houses." This play might have been called "What Price Congress?" It is a humorous, sardonic, hard hitting play which depicts a Congressional committee with their noses in the pork barrel, and the efforts of one newly elected and idealistic representative, who has the quaint idea that bills are passed for the good of the nation as a whole, trying to effect a reform. The play, incidentally, is well calculated for the stage, is full of rich acting parts, and has a fine tang of actuality. It's biting satire reminds the reader of last year's Pulitzer Prize Winner—"Of Thee I Sing."—M.M.

BY BEATRICE M. MURPHY "Is an education worth struggling for?" asks a current magazine, and the question starts a whole train of thought. It's according to what you mean by education. If you mean that after spending a few years in school and being handed a little piece of paper, you think you're educated, then the answer is decidedly, "No, it isn't worth struggling for." For the knowledge obtained from books is only one-half of a man's education—the minor half. If he has been wise and read the right kind of books, then he is prepared for acquiring the rest of his education from life. For, to be truly educated one must live; must learn from life as well as from books, and suffer and struggle in doing so. Is it worth it? Are the facts we learn from life worth the price we pay to get them? Well, you see, that depends on you, too. If they teach you lessons which you can't forget; if they help you to live a finer, cleaner, more serviceable life; or if they help you to find yourself; then they're worth any price. If your education makes you more tolerant and sympathetic toward those you come in contact with, then it's worth putting yourself out a little to get it. If you get out of it more or as much as you expected of it and put into it then it's worth the price. And it is true that with formal education—as with most things in life—we appreciate those that it was the hardest to get and that cost us the most whether in pain or mere dollars and cents. Is an education worth struggling for? It is, if you remember that all any education or any school ever attempted to do was to prepare you to meet life when the time comes, intelligently and without finching. Education consists not in how much you can acquire from books, but how well you can use that which you do acquire in facing the future. If your education gives you poise, courage and determination and teaches you how to use youranium, then it is decidedly worth struggling for. If it doesn't help you do these things, then you've wasted both your time and your energy and whatever else it might have cost you to get it.

Tutor's Father Dies After Leg and Arm Are Mangled "NEGLIGENCE," SAYS CORONER'S JURY "Contributory Negligence," a coroner's jury decided, Tuesday, caused the death of James Lewis, 63 of 326 V Street Northwest, who started out on a fishing trip, Saturday, but was so badly mangle by a B. and O. switch engine at Thirtieth and K Streets, Northwest, that he died on the following day. The elderly man succumbed at Emergency Hospital, Sunday, after his crushed right arm, right leg, and toes of the left foot had been amputated in an effort to save his life. The coroner's jury did not render its verdict until after listening to conflicting testimony and visiting the scene of the accident. Testimony was to the effect that the engine had just "spotted," or placed, five cars of merchandise in the yard and was backing up slowly when the man was run over. Engineer James H. Power, white, of Arlington, claimed he had comparatively clear vision on his side of the track, where the man was run over, but did not see the victim until after the wheels had passed over his body. His first knowledge, he said, that something was amiss, was when he saw some object beside the track as he backed up. Not until he took a more studied look after-passing did he know that a man had been struck, he said. None of the other crew admitted seeing Lewis. It also developed that no brakeman was on the rear end of the engine which was proceeding first. Such a thing is not customary, the witnesses declared. Used as Thoroughfare William Moroney, a white government employee, testified he had passed the man with his fishing tackle about five minutes before the mishap. Moroney stated that the place where the accident occurred is used frequently as a thoroughfare. He recalled no warning signs near the place of the tragedy. Joe Buchiana, white, special agent for the B. and O. Railroad, attempted to offset implications that the scene of the accident was not properly posted with warnings, by claiming that it was private property. He on visiting the place, the jury observed the use made of the tracks by pedestrians, and the absence of warnings in the immediate vicinity, although there are signs in other parts of the yard. Lawrence Costers, white attorney, representing a relative, closely quizzed witnesses upon salient points. Was Teacher's Father Mr. Lewis was buried on Wednesday afternoon. He was the husband of the late Mrs. Sarah A. Lewis. He is survived by: daughters, Mrs. Ethel Larry, 1901 Fifteenth Street, Northwest, a teacher in the public school system, and Miss Irene Lewis; a son, Dr. M. C. Lewis, of Kansas City, Mo., formerly of this city; and brother, Henry Lewis. Courts HAMPTON, Va.—The action of the County Democratic Committee in ruling that only white voters can participate in the August primary of the party will be contested in court by colored voters. The committee at its meeting last week decided to bar colored voters under plans prescribed by the last State Democratic Convention. When the committee met it had before it a letter from A. W. E. Basette, Jr., prominent local attorney, who informed Chairman Harry H. Helt, white, that he had been approached by numerous colored Democrats and said he wanted to know what action the committee would take. Mr. Basette said he had advised his clients that they have a right to cast a ballot in the primary Mr. Holt was directed to write the attorney that the state primary plan permits only "white" Democrats to participate in the primary and to tell him that the committee feels that the petition from voters should be individual and not brought by a practicing attorney. Previous Victory Recalled Mr. Bassette will be remembered as the counsel for a group of colored voters who took a case to the Virginia Supreme Court and won a decision which outlawed subterfuges by which Negroes were prevented from registering and qualifying as voters. H. U. LAW ALUMNI ASKS RETENTION OF DR. FERFREE Amid a stormy session, the Howard University Law Alumni Association, passed three resolutions. Wednesday, one flaying Dr. Abram Flexner, chairman of the university trustee board and opposing the dismissal of Dr. Dorothy Boulding Ferebee, physician to women; another asked that preference be given graduates of the Law School in appointing faculty members at that school; and a third opposed the proposed removal of the law school building from Fifth Street to the campus. A committee was also appointed to demand of President Mordecai Johnson an explanation for the refusal of the trustee board to answer letters written to that body. Dr. Flexner was scored not only for failing to reply to a letter written him by the law alumni, but was also taken to task for writing what was called an "ungentlemanly letter" to young women students who asked him to reconsider the dismissal of Dr. Ferebee, which step was taken by the board as an economy move. In his letter Dr. Flexner told the students that if they cared to pay Dr. Ferebee's salary the board had no objection to have her remain. He also stated that those who did not like the action of the board could quit. The resolution asking that law graduates be given preference in jobs was presented by Harold O. Pollard. It was pointed out that no Howard law graduates have been appointed since the George E. C. Hayes appointment, although there have been several additions to the school faculty. A resolution presented by Richard Thompkins protested the proposed removal of the law school building from Fifth Street to the University campus. Frank W. Adams, assistant U. S. Attorney, presented the resolution scoring Dr. Flexxner and asking for the retention of Dr. Eberee. Nathan A. Dobbins, president, presided at the meeting. The following officers were elected: Domingo A. Lanauze, president; Frank W. Adams, treasurer; Louise R. Mehlinger, secretary; and H. O. Pollard, vice-president. PHONE CALLS FOR DEBT CAUSE $20,000 SUIT Dunners Want Maid Firee Who Wont Pay Husband's Clothing Bill Sick and tired of being pestered with telephone calls because he did not make his maid pay for her husband's suit or else fire her caused Harry Soloman, white insurance salesman, of 130 Webster Street, Northwest, fitted suit for $20,000 against the Squade Deal Clothing Company, of 733 Seventh Street, Northwest, Friday, in the District Supreme Court. The defendants named are: Arthur Sloan, trading as the company; Eva Sloan, and H. Kapiloff, also known as H. Kay, all of the Seventh Street address. Soloman told the court that on May 18, he received a call from Sloan inquiring whether or not he had in his employ a woman named Mary Holmes. When he replied in the affirmative, Soloman was told that the clothing store had sold the woman's husband, Bill Holmes, a suit of clothes and he had defaulted in the payments. Wants Maid Fired Sloan, demanded that Soloman force the wife to pay for her husband's suit of clothes, and if she refused, to fire her. The insurance agent replied that he was not connected with, or interested in the matter, and refused to carry out the order. He also objected to the use of his telephone for dunning purposes. Sloan is then said to have threatened to telephone "continuously and constantly" until the order was carried out. According to the declaration, the clothing house people car 9 o'clock in the morning until late at night, from May 18, up until the time the suit was filed. Turn Down Lawyer The agent also avers that on May 20, his attorney communicated with Sloan and requested him to discontinue calling, but was met with a curt refusal. On May 27, Soloman said a representative of the clothing company called his employers four times during the morning and demanded that they force him to discharge the maid or pay the debt for her husband. Soloman further declared that he had 300 weekly collections to make and used the phone frequently in pursuit of his business, which he stated had suffered greatly and irreparably by the constant phoning of the defendants. The agent asked the court to restrain the defendants from calling his residence and to award him $20,000 for the impairment of the health, happiness, and comfort of himself, wife and children. N.A.A.C.P. IN CHICAGO SUES RAILROAD AND PULLMAN COMPANY CHICAGO.—The Illinois Central Railroad and the Pullman Company had a suit filed against them last week by the Chicago Branch of the N.A.A.C.P., growing out of the case of a colored woman, Mrs. Rosetta Briggs, who was forced to ride in a day coach while sick. Woman Sick Mrs. Briggs, from Salt Lake City, Utah, bought a first class ticket through Gulfport, Miss, with stop-over privileges at Chicago. She bought her Pullman ticket to Chicago and her train ticket called for the best train out of Chicago over the Illinois Central to Gulfport. After being under the care of a doctor in Chicago she applied for a Pullman ticket to Gulfport and was told that she would have to pay $40 for it and take a whole compartment or drawing room. She was obliged to ride in the jim crow day coach after crossing the Ohio river. THREE STITCHES TAKEN Three stitches were taken in a wound just below the left eye of William A.

He declared he had no interest or relationship other than being trustee. He denied knowledge of any of the transactions complained of in the original suit and requested the court to advise him of any necessary papers to be filed in connection with the case. He was not mentioned in the decision of Justice Gordon. The findings of Justice Gordon as filed in the District Supreme Court follow in chronological order. A search of records in the recorder of deeds' office show that Mrs. Martin had owned the property since May. 1906. Executes First Dead In July, 1913, Mrs. Martin executed a dead of trust to DeVeile and Johnson, trustee, to secure Lavinia DeVeile, for a loan of $215 payable at the rate of $8 per month. This indebtedness was paid regularly, in accordance with the terms, with the possible exception of three or four payments. In August, 1915, Mrs. Martin was informed by Mr. DeVeile there was a balance due which would have to be paid. She was also told that he had made arrangements for a new loan sufficient to take care of the balance. Executes Second Deed Mrs. Martin executed another deed of trust against her property to DeVeile and Johnson to secure George D. Buchan, for $320, and executed promisory notes in that amount. Subsequently, Mrs. Martin made regular payments of $6 per month, with the exception that she missed several payments from that time to March, 1918. About the first of March, 1918, DeVeile notified Mrs. Martin that her indebtedness was past due. Executes Third Deed The judge's findings continued, DeVeile offered to make a new loan to take care of the said balance. Mrs. Martin executed a new deed of trust to DeVeile and Johnson, trustee, to secure Lavinia DeVeile for $475, and executed notes for that amount. Mrs. Martin made payments on this trust until August, 1921, when it had been reduced to $285. In the same month Mrs. Martin was ordered by the District to install certain plumbing. She ascertained that it coul dbe done for $270, and requested DeVeile to make a loan for that amount. Mr. DeVeile agreed to make a loan of $300, out of which he would pay for the plumbing, which he would have done for that amount. Signs Two More Deeds On August 18, 1921, Mrs. Martin signed two deeds of trust against her property, securing Lavinia DeVeile for the sums of $600 and $210, respectively. She further executed and signed a promissory note for $600, due in three years, and twenty-one $10 notes due in from one to twenty-one monthly payments. The notes were made payable to the order of Lavinia DeVeile. Ignorant of Transaction Mrs. Martin executed the said notes and deeds of trust, the judge's findings continue, believing that there was only one deed of trust, and believing that the total amount of the notes was $300. Subsequent to August 18, 1921, Mrs. Martin paid $300 with inter- est on the notes executed on that date. Demand Made for $600 On August 26, 1924, DeVeile made demands upon Mrs. Martin for the payment of the $600 note, stating it was past due. When she went in to see him, DeVeile offered to make a new loan for $900 to take care of the indebtedness. After questioning why the note was for $600, DeVeile gave Mrs. Martin no satisfaction. Justice Gordon's findings continue. The elderly woman went to see a lawyer by the name of Emory. She was told there was nothing she could do and was directed to a real estate firm. There she was advised to pay the $600, or else DeVeile could foreclose on her property. Executes Sixth Deed Fearing a foreclosure on her property, on September 10, 1924, Mrs. Martin executed another deed of trust against her property for $961, 'to DeVeile, William Bowie, trustee, securing Lavinia DeVeile. She further executed 35 promissory notes for $15, due in from one to 35 months, and another note for $436, due in three years, payable to the order of Lavinia DeVeile. Explanation Meagre Other findings of the justice were that DeVeile was unable to explain how the different amounts of the loans were paired; was unable to give an accounting of any note other than to state generally that in each case the former loan was paid off, and the balance used for the costs of the loans and 20 per cent commission. Bank Didn't Buy Notes It was ascertained that $420 was paid by Mrs. Martin between September, 1924, and January 1, 1929. The findings further stated that DeVeile testified that he had sold the notes to the Industrial Savings Bank. This was found to be untrue by the testimony of -W. H. C. Brown, conservator of the bank. It appeared, continued the jurist's findings, that DeVeile is holder of the thirty-five $15 notes, and that William Bowie, trustee under the deed of trust of September 10, 1924, is the holder of the note for $436. He became holder of this note after maturity and gave no consideration for it. Says Execution Was Fraud Upon the foregoing findings Justice Gordon wrote the following conclusions: 1. That the trust of August 6, 1915, and both trusts of March 18, 1921, have been paid in accordance with the terms, and should be released of record. 2. That all of the said notes were fraudently conceived and usurious, and DeVile obtained their execution through fraud. Trust Should be Freed 3. That the trusts and notes of September 10, 1924 were executed without consideration and were usurious, and their execution was obtained through fraud; William Bowie obtained the note for $436 without consideration after maturity, and is not the holder in due course; that Mrs. Martin has good defense in any action which might be brought on said note, or the thirty-five $15 notes held by DeVeile; that the said notes should be delivered to Mrs. Martin and the trust securing them should be released of record.

Lincoln 0556 From the Pittsburgh Courier NEW YORK.—Declaring that he will talk Communism, preach Communism, and do everything he can to advance the cause of Communism, the Rev. Adam C. Powell, Jr., assistant pastor of the Abyssinian Baptist Church with a congregation of 5,000, came out flatly as a Red at a big mass meeting held in the Park Palace. Assuring his Communist auditors that the doors of the Abyssinian Church would always be open to them, the young minister said: "You can come there and say anything you want to say. That day when you can no longer come there and meet and protest and demonstrate in a peaceful manner, that is the day I walk out with you." "I don't mind being called a Communist." Rev. Mr. Powell continued. "The day will come when being called a Communist will be the highest honor that can be paid to any individual—and that day is coming soon." A Fight for Justice Calling Communism a fight for justice and happiness for all of the people, he declared, "Those we have put in political office have betrayed us...Are you willing to give all until others achieve what they should have?" Young Rev. Powell recently graduated from college and has been making a strong bid for leadership in the community allegedly as a stepping stone to political office. He has been very active in leading the fight of the disgruntled doctors and Communists on the Harlem Hospital. The Rev. A. Clayton Powell, his father, and the pastor of the Abyssinian Baptist Church, was Republican Presidential elector last November. Many members of the Abyssinian Baptist Church do not share the enthusiasm of the Rev. Mr. Powell for Communism and have openly expressed their disapproval. The congregation consists of Republicans and Democrats. So far as is known, no Communists belong to the church, since almost all Communists are atheists. The Park Palace meeting was held under the auspices of a Communist organization. Among the other speakers were Joseph Brodsky, Red attorney, and A. J. Muste, of the Conference for Progressive Labor Action.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JUNE 9, 1988 RECIPES FOR HOME AND CLUB AFFAIRS By GERTRUDE C. FRAZIER This food page is conducted with the intent of offering recipes that have been tried and found to be wholesome, quickly prepared, and economical. You are invited to send in your favorite recipe, or letters of interest to the housewife. All Kinds of Liver Valuable in Diet All kinds of li er have about the same food values, but pork, beef, and lamb liver are, as a rule, cheaper than calf liver. Properly cooked they may be made equally tender and delicious. The liver of any kind of fowl is also valuable, particularly for the children. In the animal body the liver serves partly as a storage organ, and therefore contains an abundance of food substances not found in other meat. It is especially rich in iron and copper which are needed for the building of red blood corpuscles. It is one of the richest sources of vitamin A, is a good source of vitamin G, and contains some vitamin B. Like other meats, it has a high percentage of protein. In recent years science has discovered that liver is valuable for certain types of anemia, and of course, in the everyday diet it is a useful and economical meat. The usual method of cooking liver is to broil or saute, it, sliced. Liver may be very easily overdone, however by boiling it a little too long or by using too much heat. Cook tender, fresh liver long enough to take away the red color. Liver with a less delicate flavor and texture tastes better if scalded first, although some food value is then sacrificed. You can serve sliced liver broiled with bacon, sautéed on onions, in a milk gravy, braised or baked. Ground or chopped liver may be used in creamed liver, liver hash, liver and rice leaf, liver croquettes, scalloped liver and potatoes, or scalloped liver and whole wheat. Lier salad may be made of chopped cooked liver, raw cabbage and onions. Liver makes a good sandwich filling for the school lunch box. Grind it up and mix it with sage, or some other seasoning. There are two good ways of making good cookies in a hurry, drop cookies and in ice box cookies. Either one is rolling the dough out on a board and cutting each cookie out separately. No doubt you often found, too, that in doing so, too much flour was worked into the dough, so the cookies turned out dry and "bready." Soft-dough cookie recipes can be baked as drop cookies, as in the recipes that follow for orange drop cookies, oatmeal drop cookies, and peanut crisps. The Bureau of Home Economics of the U. S. Department of Agriculture has tested the recipes below: 2 tablespoons grated orange 2 tablespoons grated orange rind 4 tablespoons butter Cream together the grated orange rind, butter, and sugar. Add the well-beaten eggs and orange juice, and the flour, baking powder, and salt, which have already bean sifted together. Drop the batter by spoonfuls onto a greased baking sheet and bake in a moderately hot oven (375° to 400° F.) for about 10 minutes. Oatmeal Drop Cookies ½ cup fat 1 cup sugar 1 egg 1½ cups sifted flour ½ teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons cinnamon ½ cup milk ½ teaspoon soda dissolved in 1 teaspoon water 1½ cuts fine outmeal WALTHFUL "COOL" IS THE BEST "COOL" BUTTERMILK Is MORE Than a "Thirst Quencher" For Chestnut Farms Buttermilk, not only cools delightfully WHILE YOU DRINK IT... but it keeps you cool, tening your entire nervous system and supplying generous food value of lasting benefit. Chewned fresh every day here at Chestnut Farms Dairy, and delivered to your door every morning. Please your order on an ample, refreshing supply daily. Buttermilk is reported as one of the most beneficial of ALL cold drinks for summertime refreshment. Place your order FORAY. CHESTNUT FARMS DAIRY PHONE POTOMAC 4000 FOR SERVICE Avoid Over Boiling QUICKLY MADE COOKIES FOR THE KIDDIES Orange Drop Cookies 4 tablespoons orange juice 2 cups sifted flour 4 teaspoons baking powder ½ teaspoon salt. ½ cup chopped nuts 1 cup seedless raisins Cream the fat and sugar, and add the beaten egg. Sift together the dry ingredients, except the oatmeal and add with the milk to the first mixture. Add the soda and water, and then the oatmeal, nuts and raisins. Mix well. Drop by spoonfuls onto a greased baking sheet and bake to a golden brown in a moderately hot oven (375° to 400° F.). Remove from the pan while hot. Peanut Crisps 1 cup finely chopped, peanuts ½ cup sifted flour $ \frac{1}{2} $ teaspoon almond extract 1 teaspoon ammonia extract. Mix the peanuts, sugar, flour, and salt thoroughly. Beat the egg whites until stiff, add the flavoring and fold into the first mixture. Drop by small spoonfuls well apart on a greased baking sheet. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until lightly browned, in a very moderate oven (about 325° F.). Or you can use the recently discovered "ce box" method with any of the stiffer doughs. You just mix the cookie dough by the standard method, and then shape it into rolls as large around as the cookies are to be. Wrap the rolls of cookie dough in waxed paper or damp cloths, and let them stand in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight until they are thoroughly chilled. Then, with a sharp knife, slice of the cookies as thinly as you want them, and bake. Ginger cookies, sugar cookies, any standard recipe for roll-out cookies can be handled in this way. Sandwiches for Hasty Meals When there are bits of leftover ham too small to serve, put them through the food grinder together with a small onion, half a green pepper and one hard-cooked egg Mix with salad dressing and use as filling for sandwiches, toasted, if liked. Chopped Roast Beef Sandwiches Use the small waste pieces left from a roast; to one cupful add a little chopped onion, salt, peppers and enough fresh horseradish to moisten. Spread on generous slices of whole wheat bread. Ham and Tomato Sandwich Take one cupful of chopped ham, one teaspoonful of minced parsley, a pinch of mace, a few drops of lemon juice, one-half cupful of butter, a bit of garlic or onion. Rub the bowl with the garlic and mix all the ingredients together and spread on rounds of bread between which place a slice of ripe tomato. Chicken-Ham Sandwich Work into four ounces of fresh butter two teaspoonfuls of curry powder, half a teaspoonful of lemon juice and one-fourth teaspoonful of salt; blend to a smooth paste, adding a few drops of onion juice. Let stand where it will keep soft. Butter slices of bread, lay on a thin slice of ham, then a thin slice of chicken. Put on a slice of buttered bread and press together. Cut any desired shape. Deviled Ham and Cucumber Bandwich Take a small can of deviled ham, mix with mayonnaise to moisten or use French dressing. Cover one slice of bread with cucumber and the other with the ham. Press together and cut into triangles. Roast Beef Sandwiches Dip thin slices of roast beef into heavy French dressing to which finely chopped onion has been added. Place on thinly sliced buttered bread of wheat or rye and garnish with a slice of sour pickle. SEVEN AMERICAN STORES CO.

Ovenized rams Ovenized ham is a modern process used instead of the smoke-house treatment. The hams are placed in an oven heated with steam and smudged by sawdust. This treatment produces a similar effect to that formerly given by the smoking process. HOUSEHOLD HINTS Gum may be removed from clothing with gasoline. Clothes may be whitened by adding lemon rind to the boiling water. A small quantity of cornstarch mixed with salt will keep it from forming lumps. Use warm water for sprinkling clothes. They absorb it easier. Let spinach stand in warm water a few minutes to loosen the dirt. BEAUTY HINTS By NINA TEMPLE GRACEFUL HANDS Any woman may double her charm by making her hands graceful. First, of course, they must be immaculately groomed, and then they should be given grace by messaging the joints night and morning with a mixture of benzoin and glycerine. CRUDE OIL FOR THICK HAIR One may use very expensive hair tonics and yet not make the hair half so thick and luxuriant as it will be after using cheap "crude oil." Try this and see: Massage crude oil into the scalp at night and tie up with a thick towel. In the morning saturate the scalp with olive oil, then shampoo the hair. Repeat this treatment twice a week and your hair will improve wonderfully.

Supreme Court Act Put Through Legislature by Colored Members in 1921; Heirs of Two Victims Get $5,000 Each from the County EIGHT CHARLESTON, W.Va.—The Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia confirmed the decision of the Circuit Court of Kanawha County in the Greenbrier lynchings cases, in which the circuit court awarded $5,000 damages to the administrators of the estates of Tom Jackson and George Banks, who were lynched in Greenbrier County over a year ago. Suit was brought by the administrators in the circuit court of Kanawha County, although the lynchings took place in Greenbrier County. Greenbrier filed demurra to the declarations of the plaintiffs, alleging that Kanawha County circuit court did not have jurisdiction The Supreme Court held that suits under the Capehart anti-lynn law could be brought in any county in the state. Prosecuting Attorney White represented Greenbrier County, and T. G. Nutter and Sam D. Lopinsky represented the estates. Act Constitutional After the Supreme Court decided that Kanawa County had jurisdiction, Greenbrier County, filed demurrer questioning the constitutionality of the Capehart act. But the lower court declared the act constitutional and awarded damages in the sum of $5,000 in each case, from which verdict the circuit court of Greenbrier County sought to appeal. On Monday, May 29, the Supreme Court handed down a decision refusing to review the action of the circuit court, thereby confirming the ruling that the act was constitutional. These suits were brought under the Capehart act, of which Harry J, Capehart, now assistant U. S. district attorney for Southern West Virginia, is he author. The law was passed by the legislature in 1921. It was drawn after the statutes of Ohio and Illinois and provides that "the country in which a person is charged with crime, and wherein such person has been taken from a state, county or municipal officer and lynched and put to death, shall be subject to a forfeiture of five thousand dollars which may be recovered by appropriate action therein, in the name of the personal representative of the person put to death, for the use of his dependent family or estate. Such action may be brought in any state court." The latter part of the act was hotly contested by several members of the legislature when it was being considered in 1921. But the colored members, Mr. Capehart, and T. G. Nutter succeeded in defending that particular section, and the act was passed with very stringent provisions. Stringent Law The Cauchart law really has more teeth in it than either the Ohio or Illinois statutes, not only imposing a penalty on the county in which a lynching takes place, but also providing for suit against the officer in the event he is negligent in protecting a prisoner. These suits have been watched with a great deal of interest by citizens of this state as well as other sections of the country, and the Supreme Court of West Virginia is being commended by citizens everywhere. Besides the attorneys named, J. M. Ellis, of Oak Hill, one of the first Negroes to sit in the West Virginia legislature, also participated in the case. The 28th anniversary sermon of Forest Temple, Daughter Elks, will be preached at First Baptist Church, Sixth and G Streets, Southwest, Sunday night, June 11, by the pastor, the Rev. James H. Marshall. Mrs. Rebecca Carter is daughter ruler, Mrs. Marie Pierce, secretary and Mrs. Estelle Herbert, chairman of the church committee. Father Rushing Son to Hospital, Dies George S. Hopkins, 62, of Alexandria, Va., started to drive to Emergency Hospital, in this city, Thursday, with his son Lewis, who had been cut during an argument.

The son was given first aid treatment for a minor cut. MRS. WINNIE ROBINSON Funeral services for the late Mrs. Winnie Robinson, 1834 Eighth Street, Northwest, were conducted from the Frazier Funeral Home, Wednesday, with the Rev. E. C. Smith, pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, presiding. Mrs. Robinson was the widow of the late Harrison Robinson. She is survived by five children: Esher and Annie Robinson, Clara Closson, Adbie Rainey, and Evelyn Wharton. MAN AND WOMAN HELD FOR MURDER BY GRAND JURY Slayer of Estranged Soldier Claims to Have Acted in Self-Defense Among the 32 persons indicted by the District grand jury, last week, were one woman facing a second-degree murder indictment for shooting her estranged husband and a man charged with first-degree murder in connection with the death of a friend. The woman, Mrs. Georgia Beatrice Montgomery, 28, of 1241 Twenty-fifth Street, Northwest, is charged with having fatally shot Sampson Montgomery, a 10th Cavalryman and the husband, stationed at Fort Meyer, Va., on May 13. Claims Self-Defense Mrs. Montgomery claimed self-defense. At the coroner's investigation, it was brought out that the husband went to the residence of his wife and begged to be allowed to talk with her in her second-floor room. She had been living with a man named Robert A. Young for three weeks previously, it developed, and refused the request. Montgomery is said to have brandished a knife. Mrs. Montgomery admitted firing a bullet which pierced his heart from a revolver which she had placed on the steps. She claimed that her husband had threatened her life on several occasions. Hat Causes Dispute The man indicted is Andrew Miles, charged with the slaying of Benjamin I. Coles, 222 Third Street, Southwest, in an argument over a hat on April 24. The two men are reported to have made up after the quarrel. Late that evening Coles is said to have retired, while Miles sat up in a rocking chair, falling off to sleep around midnight. About 4 a.m., Coles was discovered staggering around his room bleeding from the right side of head. The injured man declared he had been struck over the head by some one. He was removed to the Gallinger Hospital, where he died on April 27, from the effects of the blow on the head with a dull instrument. Miles was not in the room at the time of the discovery, and was not captured until some days later. ROOMER HELD ON COMPLAINT OF GIRL, AGE 13 Suspicious of the illness of her 13-year-old daughter, Mrs. Jane Crowder, of 1309 Four-and-a-Half Street, Southwest, made complaints to the Fourth Precinct, Saturday, which resulted in the arrest of Jerry Davis, a roomer at the above address, on criminal assault charges. Mrs. Crowder recited to police the story her daughter told upon being questioned. This was to the effect that while members of the family were absent from the house on May 31, Davis took advantage of the girl. When the mother returned nothing was said about the incident. It was only when Fannie became ill that the alleged attack was revealed. Examination of the girl by physicians at the Gallinger Hospital gave positive results. Davis was picked up some time later and held for court action. Dogs Ignore Sabbath; Bite Three Persons Disregarding that the day was the Sabbath, three dogs bit three persons, Sunday. Durwood Brent, 10, of 720 Gresham Street, Northwest, received a laceration near the right eye when he was bitten by a mongrel.

RIGHT AWAY CAB COMPANY SUED FOR $1,517.16 Local Bank Employee Is Co-Defendant for Old Debt Seeking to collect $1,517.16 which they claim is the balance due on an original indebtedness of $4,097.39, the Steuart Motor Company filed suit against Edward A. Baker, employee of the Industrial Bank, and the Right Away Cab Company, Monday. The petition states that in August, 1932, the defendants became indebted in the sum of $4,097.39, for the purchase of some automobiles. The agreement was that the payments should be at the rate of not less than $100 weekly, until the amount was paid. The defendants are said to have paid $1,140, then defaulted in the payment of the balance. The Steuart Company repossessed the cars and reconditioned them. The automobiles were later sold for $1,436.23, which was credited to the defendants. The plaintiff asks that they be paid the balance of $1,517.16, with interest from January 1, 1933, besides the cost of the suit. FREE-TOM-MOONEY MEETING CALLED FOR SUNDAY The Washington Scottboro Action Committee on the suggestion of some young persons who feet that the time has come when Negroes should be more responsive to gross miscarriages of justice, regardless of whether the victims are colored or white, is sponsoring a Free Tom Mooney meeting at the John Wesley A.M.E. Zion Church, Fourteenth and Corcoran Streets, Northwest, Sunday, June 11, at 4 p.m. Tom Mooney was convicted and sentenced to death in San Francisco, California, February, 1917, on a charge of first degree murder growing out of the bomb explosion which killed nine people and wounded forty during the preparedness parade in San Francisco, July 22, 1916. The Mooney case has since become a national scandal. One of the sponsors of the meeting said: "A miscarriage of justice which affects a white man one day can affect a Negro the next day. In 1916 it was Mooney and Billings in California. In 1931 and 1933 it was the Scottsboro boys in Alabama. No citizen, black or white, can remain silent while gross miscarriages of justice continue in America. Tom Mooney might have been free long since, but he has steadfastly refused to accept anything less than a complete, unconditional pardon. He places principle above freedom." Bishop E. D. W. Jones, George B. Murphy, chairman of the Washington Scottsboro Action Committee; Vice-Dean Charles H. Houston, Attorney B. V. Lawson, and John Ballan, from New York, who is intimately acquainted with the Mooney case will address the meeting. MAN HELD FOR ASSAULT Ned Manuel, 36, of 433 Eighth Street, Southwest, was booked at the Fourth Precinct, Sunday, charged with assault. He is alleged to have struck Ida Ross, 46, of the same address, over the head, and cut her on the second finger of the left hand with a knife. HURTS ANKLE IN BOUT Harvey Willoughby, 37, of 617 M Street, Northwest, attempted to show his prowess at the sport of wrestling to a friend, Monday Before the friendly encounter had advanced very far, Willoughby had strained his left ankle in his endeavors. He had to have the member strapped. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, JUNE 9, 1933 PETER H. OSMOND K. FRAENKEL, prominent New York Constitutional lawyer, retained by the International Labor Defense. He last week argued the writs of habeas corpus for Roy Wright and Eugene Williams, the two youngest Scottsboro case boys, whom Judge James E. Horton turned over to the jurisdiction of the juvenile courts at the end of the hearing, although admitting by this action the boys were illegally held by the Circuit Court and should have been freed as Fraenkel demanded. I. L. D. IN PROTEST MARCH TO FREE CONDEMNED BOYS Hundreds March Through Streets and Hold Mass Meeting Carrying banners on which were printed slogans denouncing the court decision in convicting the three youths who were found guilty of murder in first degree in connection with the slaying of Millo Kennedy, white, park policeman, several hundred marchers and sympathizers of the International Labor Defense, a Communist organization, marched through the streets Monday night and held a meeting within a stone's throw of Logan Circle, where the slaying took place. The line formed at Rhode Island Avenue and Eighth Streets, Northwest, and paraded north to R Street, and west on R to Vermont Avenue and Q Street, where a crowd of several hundred collected to hear the speeches. The line of march was heavily guarded by police on foot and motorcycles. The motor cycle officers brought up the rear of the parade and the usual plan of the police to gas the marchers with heavy smoke from their mounts failed as the wind blew the gas away from the men, women and children in line. Before the line formed, Harold Spencer, white youth, called the conviction of the three Logan Circle boys, a frame-up and told of three instances here recently where policemen had shot and killed three colored men who were innocent of any crime. James Oakes, the next speaker, made a plea for the Scottsboro boys and Tom Mooney. Charles Spencer flayed Roosevelt and all capitalists and urged white and colored workers to unite for a concerted effort to free all "class war" prisoners. The same three speakers' addressed the crowd at Vermont Avenue and Q Street, after which the meeting and marchers disbanded. PUBLISHER'S WIFE AMENDS BILL IN SEPARATION SUIT Mrs. R. S. Abbott Seeks Greater Allowance and Asks for Receiver CHICAGO.—Amending her bill of complaint against her husband, Robert S. Abbott, reputed millionaire publisher of the Defender newspaper, Mrs. Abbott has enumerated new charges, in her suit for separate maintenance now pending. Among new allegations is one that in the fall of 1931, Mr. Abbott had intimate relations with a nurse who was attending him during an illness. Abbott is now paying his wife $300 a month temporary alimony under orders of the court. She seeks more liberal support and wants an accounting of the business with appointment of a receiver, claiming that under the present general manager, N. K. McGill an attorney, the business is suffering. Some months ago, in answer to his wife's suit, "Abbott asserted that the business, while not insolvent, was losing money thousands a year.

Patterson, descendent of Senator Patterson after whom the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School is partially named, was accompanied by Mrs. Patterson on a visit to this school last Friday, at which time they were invited to hear a concert by the Cardozo Business High School orchestra, under the leadership of Mr. Weir and Mr. Smith. Mr. Mattingly, principal of Cardozo, was present and not only explained the repertoire and background of the orchestra but also presented several members who were former students of the Garnet-Patterson school, two of whom were elected to the National Honor Society this year at Cardozo. Present in this orchestra also was Raymond Tolson, former graduate of Garnet-Patterson, who won athletic distinction in the interhigh school high jump this year. The last of a series of four lectures on adult education, sponsored by the Garnet-Patterson Parent-Teacher Association, was recently presented. These instructive discourses were organized by a committee of the College Alumnae Club, under the chairmanship of Mrs. Esther B. King, teacher at the Garnet-Patterson. All of the lectures were well attended and each lecturer contributed substantial scientific information for parents on matters of child training.

PRESIDENT LOSES IN HOUSE ON HIS HAWAIIAN BILL Had Asked Change of Law So He Could Appoint an Outsider Governor President Roosevelt suffered his first defeat in the House of Representatives here on Tuesday when the House refused to suspend the rules and approve the administration-supported Rankin bill providing that the Governor of Hawaii need not necessarily be a resident of the islands. The vote of 222 to 114 was two short of the required two-thirds needed to suspend the rules. Laying the defeat to "two men from my own state voting against me," Representative Rankin of Mississippi said that he would ask the rules committee for a special rule allowing passage by a majority vote. Twenty. Democrats and four Farmer-Laborites voted with the Republicans against the bill. Representative Kvaie of Minnesota, the fifth Farmer-Labor member, was absent. Representative Dunn, Democrat of Pennsylvania, voted present, Representative James of Michigan and Christianson of Minnesota, Republicans, voted with the Democrats. On May 22, President Roosevelt sent a special message to Congress, urging early passage of a measure "temporarily suspending that part of the law which requires the Governor of Hawaii to be a resident of the islands," to the end that he might select for the post, from the mainland or the islands, "a man of experience and vision who will be regarded by all citizens of the islands as one who will be absolutely impartial in his decisions on matters as to which there may be a difference of local opinion. Hawaii Not a Possession Republicans opposed the measure on the ground that Hawaii is not a possession of the United States, the minority report stating: "It is a fundamental principle of American government that sovereignty is derived from the people, and that principle was fully recognized in formulating the Organic Act which set up the government of the Territory of Hawaii." In the debate the opposition charged recourse to "carpet-bag government" for patronage, violating "treaty obligations." Delegate McCandless of Hawaii, a Democrat, asked: "What justification has Congress for partially disenfranchising the people of Hawaii?" In reply, Representative Rankin said: "Conditions in Hawaii have become such that the President is asking permission to appoint some one to remedy those conditions."

LOCAL SCHOOL TEACHERS OFFER HELP TO HANDICAPPED YOUTH SECOND SECTION DePRIEST FAILS TO APPEAR HERE JUNE 2 DePRIEST FAILS TO APPEAR HERE JUNE 2 Scheduled to Speak with Congressman Fish, Leaves for Cairo, Illinois Someone certainly mixed the speaking dates of Representative Oscar DePriest, of Illinois, on June 2. A big mass meeting was planned and advertised to be held at the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church here to endorse the DePriest amendment to the 14th Amendment, to grant a change of venue from state to state when it is evident that an unfair trial cannot be avoided in a given state. Presto, on June 1, Mr. DePriest was informed of a speaking engagement that he had for Cairo, Ill., on June 2. It was impossible to speak at a meeting to endorse his effort in Congress and keep his engagement in Cairo. The pressure from Illinois prevailed and to Cairo the Congressman went for June 2, and the Washington audience was disappointed. Representative Hamilton Fish, of New York, was scheduled to speak at this meeting. He was present and delivered his address. Roy Ellis Praised Representative James P. Connery, Democrat, of Massachusetts, presided. He paid tribute to Roy Ellis, who works with him on the labor committee of the House. He said: "There is no better representative of any committee in Congress. He is efficient, able, well-educated, faithful and loyal. I never have to ask him what goes on when I am in Lynn, Mass., or anywhere else for that matter." Mr. Connery stated that he was surprised that the Negro did not have an organized lobbying group here in Washington. He said every other interest and group looks out for its interest here at the capital and why not the Negro? Mr. Fish, who was a captain in the famous Negro regiment of New York, during the world war, spoke at length, since Congressman DePriest was absent. Speaking of Mr. DePriest, he said: "I came to hear Mr. DePriest speak, and after he had finished then I could add a few remarks. Since the colored people of America have elected one of their own to the Congress of the United States I hope you will not be satisfied by sending just one of your representatives for twelve million colored Americans are entitled to more than one. "You should not be satisfied to be represented merely by one Congressman. In this government of ours, in a free republic, you are entitled to dozens of representatives elected by your people and the other people living in those districts. In the next ten years at least, I hope you will have three or four members of your group in the House of Representatives probably, one from New York City, one from St. Louis, may be another from Chicago, the big industrial cities of the North." Speaking of Communism and the Negro, Mr. Fish said: Gives Whack at Communism "Many of your group have gone over to the revolutionary school at Moscow to learn the revolutionary doctrines and have come back here and have spread them in the big cities, North and South. "The main reason they have been disappointed after spending this money and time, is that the American Negro, in spite of injustices, in spite of inequalities, in spite of prejudice, is faithful and loyal to his country, and the colored man and woman believes in God and in his church above such proposals, of atheism and communism, which deny God and every religious belief." In closing he said: "My message to you is to go forward, asking not charity, but justice and more justice and still more justice as free American citizens until you get every right and any right that every citizen in the United States of America has, in every state in the United States." Bishop E. D. W. Jones said that it is the purpose of every Negro to see that justice is done. "We would all like to see it a reality rather than a form." Morris Lewis, secretary to Congressman DePriest, explained that he was called by long distance telephone and had to leave to keep an engagement in Cairo, Ill. The meeting was fostered by the National Negro Legislative Council here. Dean Kelly Miller, of Howard University, delivered the commencement address to the 477 graduates of the Maryland State Normal School, at Bowie, Thursday afternoon.

Beside Mr. Adams two other assistant U.S. attorneys, both white, will be dismissed at the same time. They are John B.

The record of Mr. Adams was highly prasied by the association. Mr. Adams assumed his office under the Republican administration and it was rumored sometime ago that he was to make way for a Democrat but according to an authoritative source it was disclosed that a further appointment will not be made which will mean that there will be no Negroes in the office of the United States attorney after Mr. Adams leaves. He has an excellent record as a prosecutor of numbers bankers and runners, and other gambling law breakers who came before him. In a statement to the Tribune this week Mr. Adams said he had not conferred with his chief on his dismissal and refused to comment on the report hat his dismissal was a part of the Democratic regime to oust Republicans. On leaving the police court he plans to resume his law practice with offices in the Lewis Building, Eleventh and U Streets, Northwest. VICTIM OF AUTO ACCIDENT BURIED IN MADISON, VA.

BELL BOY SHOT IN ATTEMPT TO HALT GUN PLAY After momentarily mistaking two intruders as guests of the Franklin Park Hotel apartments, where he is employed as bell boy, Matthew Logan heroically attempted to prevent gun play, early Thursday morning, and was shot in the elbow by one of the men. While Matthews struggled with one of the men, a shot from a high-powered pistol went through a thin wall, richethotched off a bed post and entered the breast of Leila Morrison, white, as she was lying conversing with her fance, instantly killing her. It was the same shot which wounded the bell boy in the Mistaken for Guests As police mapped out the slaying, two white men parked their car in front of the hotel, leaving the motor running. As they entered the hostelry, Matthews, thinking they were guests, arose to meet them. As he realized they were not guests, he followed them to the elevator. As he did so, one of the men turned and thrust a pistol into his ribs and commanded him to take them to the "Morrison girl's apartment." Logan backed away, but the barrel of the pistol was shifted toward his head, with a threat to blow out his brains. With the gun held to his head, Logan took the two men to the sixth floor, where they forced him in front of them to the door of the apartment, which they seemed to know. Still covering the bell boy, they rapped several times but received no response. Logan moved slightly, and the gun went off. Elmer W. Holland, Jr., 25, white, of the 7700 block of Thirteenth Street, Northwest, a special officer hired to watch homes in the Shepherd Park region, surrendered later in the day to police of the Sixth Precinct, and is said by police to have admitted the shooting. He claimed that he did not know any one had been killed until he stopped at the home of his estranged wife several hours later, and was informed that police were looking for him.

"Modern times does not change religion. All one has to do is the right thing and nothing can block his way to his seat beside the Almighty." Bishop Jones said.

Pantomime Important in the Development of Religious Drama By Gertrude Parthenia McBrown There have always been many conceptions of the art of pantomime. Through its long history, we find that the Ancient Greeks, the Italians, the French and the English made their various contributions. The pantomime received very little attention in America until recent years, and even now the pantomime consists chiefly of the interpretative dance although we are occasionally favored with a few fine presentations in its highest form in the legitimate theatre. "Pierrot," "The Prodigal" and "The Beggar on Horseback" are outstanding examples. Aside from the entertaining, educational, and religious values of the pantomime, there are also many by-products which are of special benefit to the actor. Action is the clearest and most impressive form of expression. Pantomime, the language of action, is universal; and one of the oldest arts of the theatre. Pantomime, or silent drama, so far as speech is concerned, has been defined as "theatrical performances played in the language of action." In the pantomime one registers with facial and bodily expressions all the visible movements by which human emotions and thoughts are revealed. In the spoken drama we have, not only all facial expressions and bodily action, but also all vocal utterances. Since acting proper includes speech and song, and pantomime does not, one might ask: Why have pantomime; why have silent drama by those who can speak? Is not speech more effective than dumb shows? Complete Acting This is perhaps just criticism when we take into consideration the many mediocre sketches acted by those who know little or nothing of the fundamentals of the art of pantomime. The perfect pantomime, however is complete; it is effective in that it is vital and sufficient within itself; it needs no words to tell the story. While it is true that in the pantomime we do not sense the literary beauty of the play and the charm of the human voice in speech and song, we have music, dancing, lighting and all of the other theatrical accessories of the spoken drama. The pantomime may justly be termed a living pic- ture, a vision and undisturbed by speech. Charles Aubert believes that "the principal motive for producing a pantomime is that its rapid and noiseless action causes a very different emotion from the drama, a mysterious emotion akin to that experienced in dreams." "A painting," he says, "does not speak; statues are silent; yet no one denies the intense charm which pictures and sculpture exert. Therefore, pantomime shall be animated picture., our characters, living statues." Accuracy of Action Since the success of the pantomime depends largely on clarity of thought and accuracy of action, the mime's gestures must be sincere responses to mental activities. This is why the study of pantomime is of particular value in perfecting the spoken drama. The religious drama calls for such depth of feeling and sincerity of emotions that oftimes the actor is better able to interpret the spiritual mood with action rather than with words. "The spectator who sees a more or less intense emotion portrayed by acting, finds himself drawn by the power of the quality of imitation to share and feel himself the emotion of which all signs are shown to him." Those of us who have enjoyed those highly artistic interpretative dances on various themes by Edna Guy, that talented Negro student of Ruth St. Denis know with what fervor she gives her soul and rhythmic body to the music of "Sinner Please Don't Let This Harvest Pass," "Weeping Mary," and "Git on Board, Lil Chillun." Although we do not hear the rhythm of the words blending with the melody of the songs, our emotions are deeply stirred as we watch the artist while she is interpreting soulfully the haunting music of the slave songs. So thoroughly convincing is this young artist when she appears as the Hindu woman in Strickland's "Devotion," that, despite our Christian tendencies, we too how with the worshipper before the Buddha. Impassioned Drama Marmontel says: "The pantomime is even more impassioned than eloquence. The pantomime is action vitalized with feeling, and although there are many technical difficulties connected with the pantomime, it is one of the most expressive dramatic forms when these difficulties are eliminated." It is with this thought in mind that the dramatic club of the Asbury Church, Washington, is turning its attention to the study of the pantomime. Walter Baker's "Bible Pantomimes," "The Talents," "Joseph and His Brothers," "At the Beautiful Gate" and many others are proving interesting. Members of the class are adapting stories and writing pantomimes for out-door production during the summer months. In selecting pantomimes we must guard against plays in which situations and ideas do not lend themselves to pantomime, interpretation. There are many instances where words are necessary to convey the thought; but for plays within the field, pantomime is most satisfying. Just here I might say that we must not confuse the various pantomimic forms with the true pantomime. In many of the pantomimic forms we have a reader interpreting the action of the mime. The true pantomime does not need this. It not only conveys its own message as a distinct part of the spoken drama but it also enables the actor to make the best use of the various members of the body to express mental activities and at the same time develops expressive speech. In short, the pantomime develops poise and freedom in expression. In the words of Aubert: "The pantomime not only offers excellent entertainment, but also aids in perfecting dramatic art through the development of a greater ability to appreciate the necessity of understanding and expressing the thoughts which words convey."

North 0063 75th ANNIVERSARY OF THIRD BAPTIST CHURCH CLOSED Has Twenty Members Who Have Been in Church for 50 Years The seventy-fifth anniversary of the Third Baptist Church and the fifteenth anniversary of the pastor, the Rev. George O. Bullock, closed Monday night with a program in the main auditorium of the church and a reception to the pastor and his wife in the Sunday school rooms. An outstanding feature of the program, Monday night, was the presence of ten of the twenty members who have been in the church for fifty years or more. A special prayer was offered for these members by the Rev. J. Harvey Randolph, pastor of Mt. Moriah Baptist Church. 50-Year Members Introduced Mrs. Rebecca Gray, who introduced each of the fifty-year members present, said that the thought came to her in 1917, when a gentleman attending the Sunday school suggested that he hoped to live to see his fifteenth birthday as a member of this church. She began to make inquiries and started a movement to honor the members when they reached their fifteenth year in the church. This has become an annual affair of the church. The ten fifty-year members present were: Mrs. Louise Holmes, Mrs. Ella Outlaw, Mrs. Mary A. Butler, Mrs. Elizabeth McPherson, Mrs. Sarah Hamilton, Mrs. Francis Loving, Mrs. Ella Smith, Mrs. Annie Parham, Mrs. Annie Kelly and Mrs. Rebecca Jackson. Those absent were Steven Piedmont, Edward Crump, Ambrose Saunders, Mrs. Carrie Ford, Mrs. Sarah Milton, Mrs. Mary J. Ware, Mrs. L. Saunders, Mrs. Martha Woodfork, and Mrs. Maggie Green. History of Church Road The Rev. L. T. Harvey acted as master of ceremonies, representing the Rev. Augustus Lewis, president of the Baptist Ministers' Conference, who was absent. Following the opening exercises, the history of the church was given by Samuel E. Milton. The Lyric Quartette sang two selections. The history of the pastor was read by D. C. Dodson. James Coleman gave the history of the Sunday school. The history of the Christian Endeavor was given by Clarence W. Lewis. The W. B. L. and S. Quartette rendered a selection. The history of the Missionary Society was given by Mrs. Irene Ewell, after Mrs. Bessie Pettross, who was absent. Short addresses feliciting the church and pastor were made by the Rev. W. D. Jarvis, pastor of New Bethel; the Rev. J. Harvey Randolph, pastor of Mt. Moriah; J. P. Nichols, R. D. Grimes, pastor of Salem Baptist Church; S. W. Dixon, pastor of First Baptist of Takoma Park; E. C. Smith, pastor of Metropolitan Baptist Church; W. H. Jernagin, Mt. Carmel; M. N. Newsome, First Baptist, Georgetown; J. L. S. Holloman, Second Baptist; G. S. Lampkin, McKinley Baptist; W. B. Hill, Northeast Baptist; A. H. S. Johnson, First Baptist, Manassas, Va.; Joseph Henderson, Missionary; and J. W. BISHOP W. H. HEARD MOBBED IN BFTHFL CHURCH. NEW YORK Aged Prelate of A. M. E. Body Moves Pastor Despite Protests NEW YORK (CNA) — In a stormy protest against the high-handed tactics used by heads of the church, several hundred members of Bethel A.M.E. Church at 52 West 132nd Street, mobbed the aged Right Rev. William H. Heard, bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, last Sunday, at the closing session of the district annual conference when he announced that their pastor had been transferred without their consent. The resentment of the congregation grew out of the fight of a month's duration to retain the services of Dr. Edward A. Clarke, who for four years had been pastor of Bethel. Added to this was the bishop's refusal to see a committee who visited him regarding his failure to make an announcement of the board's decision, at a meeting he's in Newark two weeks ago. Feeling sure that the announcements would be made at Sunday's session, the church's auditorium was filled to overflowing; the flare-up came when the bishop read off the appointment of Dr. Clarke to a post in New England, and his place here to be filled by Rev. C. P. Cole, of Jamaica. The congregation booed the announcement and started for the rostrum, mobbing the bishop, who was tossed about like a football until the police arrived and escorted him from the scene. The bishop is 83 years old. The Rev. Mr. Clarke was at one time a resident of Washington, serving at the time as an examiner in the U. S. Patent Office. Mrs. Mary Gray Dies The funeral of Mrs. Mary Gray, formerly of Selma, Ala., was held Saturday at the funeral home of the George B. Clark Undertaking Company. The Rev. J. M. Butler, officiating. Mrs. Gray died at the residence of her granddaughter, Mrs. Ruby Clark, 220 Lowrie Place Northeast, Thursday. Bundrant, Liberty Baptist. Two ladies were called on, Mrs. E. C. Smith and Mrs. James L. Pinn. Many presentations were made to the pastor and his wife by the various church auxiliaries. The Rev. Augustus Lewis arrived in time to serve as master of ceremonies at the reception. The pastor preached at the morning service; Sunday. The Rev. Daniel Washington delivered the sermon Sunday night. Music was furnished by the choir. "Can't Afford a National Gathering," Say Philly Elks OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL can't Afford Philia Elks Want Grand age Convention Called Off Lodge Asks Grand Exalted Ruler to Cancel Scheduled for Indianapolis in August; Corney Says not 15 Solvent Lodges Philadelphia Elks Want Grand Lodge Convention Called Off Philadelphia Elks Want Grand Lodge Convention Called Off Quaker City Lodge Asks Grand Exalted Ruler to Cancel Meeting Scheduled for Indianapolis in August; Attorney Says not 15 Solvent Lodges mously to petition the grand exalted ruler to cancel the convention this year. J. Austin Morris, attorney for the Philadelphia lodge, in supporting the movement, said: "I have it on good authority that there are about 15 solvent lodges in the country." In the Quaker City meeting a motion also prevailed to express a vote of confidence in the grand lodge administration in the hope that "such a vote at this time may save the grand lodge from extinction." It is claimed that men familiar with fraternal procedure ridicule the idea that the grand master cannot call off the convention, regardless of the printed law which states that the body must meet once a year. They point to the postponing of the Odd Fellows and several Masonic conventions last year. They say that if enough lodges petition Mr. Wilson, he can call off the meeting, knowing that each petitioner will sustain his action if the matter should be questioned if and when another grand lodge is held. CHURCHES of us is a living stone as it were, being prepared for the building. We become fit stones by building good character. Mr. Harrison Hicks told a story of a mother dying, leaving an only boy. She told him to remain in the room and Jesus would come for him before sundown. Several persons called, and to each one he would say, "Jesus has not come yet." Just before the sunset a man crane in, and the boy repeated what he said to the others. The man said, "I am Jesus. Come along with me." Tl man gave him a good home and cared for him. Other speakers were: William H. Anderson, Mrs. Anna Fullford, Mrs. Flora Chase, and Mrs. Frances Winston. Mis<sub>g</sub> Sylvia Chase second year normal student, and Master Warren Hicks, 7th grade pupil, who went as delegates to the recent annual conference at Philadelphia, made excellent reports of the topics discussed: David Williams, staunch member of Galbraith and a class-leader, was buried Sunday at Woodlawn Cemetery. The Rev. W. D. Speight, the pastor, conducted the funeral rites. Brother class-leaders and friends took part in the eulogy. Campbell A.M.E. Church Children's Day will be celebrated all day with elaborate exercises, and the pastor's morning subject will be, "The Value of Children to Parents, and Our Duty 'o them" Music will be furnished by the Campbell Choral Club, consisting of twenty-five voices, with Mrs. Jennie Green Smith as directress. Plans for the big summer rally will be explained at this service. Sunday afternoon, at 3 o'clock, the special exercises by the Sunday School will be held, under the management of Miss Mary Wallace, the superintendent, with Miss Sarah Jones at the piano. The children will sing, recite and present a Children's Day drama. At 8 o'clock Sunday night the pastor will present stereopictures illustrating the early life of Jesus Christ, and His interest in Children. Appropriate songs will be thrown upon the screen, and sung by the audience, led by the choral club. This service is sponsored by Mrs. Lucille Dale. The first quarterly meeting for this conference year will be held Sunday, June 18, and the presiding elder, Dr. Charles H. Wesley, will preach at 11 a.m., and quarterly conference will be held Monday night, June 19. The Baltimore Conference branch of the Women's Mite Missionary Society, will hold its quarterly convention, in Campbell Church, Thursday, June 15, when Mrs. J. M. Boston, of Easton, Md., the conference branch president, will preside. The convention will be served dinner and supper by the joint official board of the church, with H. R. Queenan as general chairman, and Mrs. Lucille Dale, Mrs. Virgine Stewart, and Mrs. Mamie Wormley as vice chairmen. Meals will also be served to the general public for twenty-five cents. A comedy drama in four acts, will be presented at this church, Tuesday night, June 13, entitled, "The Road to the City," sponsored by the Progressive Club, which Miss Beulah Penn is president. The communion service was largely attended last Sunday morning, and the pastor's subject was, "God's Love to His Children, and their Likenes, to Him." Music was rendered by the choir, under direction of Melvin Weems, Miss Sterling, from Baltimore, and Mrs. Merritt, from Durham, N.C., were received into membership of the church. PHILADELPHIA, Pa. (CNS)—“We are-headed West by the Overland Route for the banks of the Wabash and Maumee, beyond the great Ohio,” reads the opening paragraph of Proclamation. No. 5 Series 11, sent out by J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler of the Elks, to the officers and members of the order, under date of June 1. Continuing, the proclamation reads: “We shall meet at the Crossroads of the Nation in the first year of the New Deal. We shall gather in the metropolis and capital of the greater Hoosier state. We are Indianapolis bound.” "Chairman Guy U. Blaine, interpid hero of the plains, a member of the grand lodge general committee, has produced seventy per cent of the entire guarantee necessary for the holding of the convention, and has warranted the remainder by the fifteenth of June, more than sixty days before the grand lodge gavel will fall.

The St. Augustines Church had three floats and won the prize for having the unique float. It was decorated by Mrs. Francina F. Biddle, who also acted as mistress of ceremonies. Her entertainment of the grown-up and the kiddies was laudable. Galbraith A.M.E. Zion Last Sunday Phillip Dines opened the discussion at the C.E, service on the topic, "God Working Through Us in Every-day Life." The following thoughts were developed: That we are helping God to build a temple fit for the indwelling of His spirit.

On Saturday, the School Club of Washington held its annual outing at Colton's. President Chas. Thomas and secretary Mattingly announced the outing one of the most healthful and mirtful the club has sponsored. Arriving at 9 p.m., the club and invited friends breakfasted. Executive Committee-man Henderson declared the order of the day and requested that all inhibitions be checked in at the table. Mirth, unconfined was ordered for the rest of the day. Games ranging from the most infantile to the more adult forms were provided. Ratings, school rank, titles, dignity, correct English, discussion of social and political reforms were banded. The leading incidents of the day were as follows: A fishing trip and boat ride far into the wide waters of the Potomac started activities. Seasoned fishermen like Dr. McDuffie, Dr. Henry Bailey, and F. E. Parks cast forth. Prizes for the largest, smallest and greatest quantity of fish went to Dr. Bailey who caught one perch. The Fish Feeders Parks and Dr. McDuffie used seventy cents' worth of bait catching a few toad fish and eels much to their disgust but to the merriment of silent Grant Lucas and loquacious Jack Bruce. As of yore, E. B. Henderson wa the only Nudist aboard, who disported almost a-la-Nature in the cold river stream. Harold Haynes took a sun bath. Edgar West-moreland, he of ye Indian extraction, snored himself endearingly into the ears of his fellow fishermen. Modesty of the writer and fear of consequences prevents telling who won and who received honorable mention for telling the most profound and the most audacious lies. Suffice it to say, with the stories of Referee Jack Bruce, "Oysters growing in a tree," and "Crabs swimming around the base of Peace Monument" in 1849 to his exact memory, no other member qualified for the honor of being dubbed the Munchausen of the trip. Of course many of the stories were referred to the disciples of Jung, Ader, and by no means least if last, Freud, for analysis. Tales, Stories and— Poccacelli, Hoffman, and the Arabian nights were undoubtedly sources of many of the yarns sprung by this ambitious crowd of THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY. JUNE 9. 1933 former newsboys, bellhops, waiters, porters and men of mark in the making. Ashore at 3 p.m., a bedraggled, mentally exhausted flock of school men heard echoes from the Golden porch where Colonel House was telling a large audience headed by John Nalle, Cato Adams, Howard Long, Garnet Wilkinson, Jimmy Campbell and a host of singing teachers and students. from Howard University how he carried the election and ran the inauguration of the exponent of the new deal in politics. A number of men went forth to visit the summer cottage and farm abode of the director of the local evening schools and all other unassigned properties and duties of the school system, Clarence Lewis. Some of the members looked in upon the 3.2 beverages sold according to law in this arid section of Maryland. At dinner, Bishop H—— of last year's christening was redubbed, Colonel Hous—— and assigned to the staff of the Governor of Florida. Base Bawl The great annual event, baseball was announced. Captains Houston of the Yanks and Captain Mattingly of the Nats read off their line-ups. To insure impartial outcomes, Captain Mattingly took the position of non-playing captain in charge of the score. H. Hale Long of the Yanks' team was selected by Houston as ampire, sole arbiter pleni-potentiary. Batteries for the Yanks were: Houston and Wilkinson. Mattingly assigned Henderson and Westmoreland for similar duty. Aided by the eminently fair, well-trained and all-seeing umpire, Henderson pitched air tight ball for two innings, except for two homeruns, which the unimpire announced as foul after the circuit of the bases had ben made. Chief among the scorers for the Houston cohorts was Coach Cato Adams who seemed inspired and determined to show that he was all omnipotent in the baseball realm. Reliable Dave helped retrieve the fame of his team by a home run dribbed off his bat under the porch of one of the bungalows to which no fielder could squirm. Paternal Loyalty Dr. Bailey, a dutiful father, caught a fly beautifully but suddenly realizing that his son had made a bid for fame dropped the ball and allowed the boy to score. Both Savoys, Kiger, and Walker on opposite teams disproved their wisdom but proved their age. Kiger said his willow was mightier than his limbs. He clouted the ball for homers but scarcely reached first. Walker was on the verge of being banished from the game and fined for disputing Long's claim that Walker had toughed and therefore put out Henderson. Walker said "I did not touch him." Long was with difficulty restrained from punishing such poor sportsmanship. It was a pleasure to see the grace and promptitude with which Houston, Jack Bruce and Wilk hit the Golden sod when their elusive extremities and spikes failed to hold. Harold Haynes distinguished himself by catching fly balls that rolled off the Golden bungalows. The final score of the game was 12-3 in favor of the Nats. High Lights of the Game Clyde McDuffie, an old ball man, refused to break a life long habit of doing anything strenuous or causing a loss of much energy within six hours after eating. Umpire Long showed the value of Ph. D. training. He never made a decision until all factors in the environment had been carefully evaluated or weighed. Like a man of thought, he made no momentous decisions for at least 30 seconds after the runner was retired, the play complete or the batsman home. One man noted for liking to sponsor a losing team (the drill) said that the umpire rivalled Buck Owens for myopic vision and Hitler for obstinacy. Hueston's speech for co-operation and team-play in which he demanded that for once, his men forget their age and infirmities, was a classic. His denunciation of his team mate, the umpire, was an anti-classic. Members of the rivals for the day were as follows: The Yanks: Houston, Wilkinson, W. Savoy, Long, Thomas, Adams, Haynes, Dr. Bailey, Dr. McDuffie, Grant Lucas and Webster. The Nats: Mattingly, A. K. Savoy, Bruce, Parks Vaughn, Westmoreland, Lewis Campbell, Bailey, Henderson, Nalle, Stafford and George. Kittrell College Graduates 29 KITTRELL, N.G.—Kittrell College, an A.M.E. Church school, graduated 47 from all departments at its forty-seventh annual commencement, Thursday, June 1. Jefferson S. Coage, recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia, delivered the address, and after the presentation of diplomas and certificates Dr. John R. Hawkins, financial secretary of the A.M.E. Church and Bishop M. H. Davis spoke briefly. "So your hen's a poet, you think?" "To be sure she is—doesn't she live by her lays?" Schools-Colleges Schools-Colleges Camden Choir Wins at Bordentown; Decision Disputed BORDENTOWN, N.J.-Camden again took honors in choir music when the Kaighn Avenue Baptist Church choir, under direction of Philip H. Johnson, received the judges' award in the tenth annual choir contest held by the Bordentown School. It was the fifth time that first award had been made to a Camden choir. Eight choirs representing six cities of North and South Jersey competed for the judges' favor, with the junior choir of Bethel A.M.E. Church of Woodbury favored to repeat its last year's victory. The favorites were ranked second, only a point behind their Camden rivals who showed amazing improvement over their last year's performance which landed them in last place in the contest. Mt. Zion Baptist of Newark, competed for the first time and placed third in the judges' rating. In the Burlington County class, St. Mary M. E. choir of Burlington won over its city rival, Bethlehem A.M.E. choir, for local supremacy. The judges' pronouncement excited vigorous disagreement among many of the competing choirs, and formal protest from two contestants was lodged with the school committee, which was asked to review the decision, not on grounds of the winning choir's quality of performance, but because all the contest rules had not been carried out. Bortnyanski's "Cherubin-Song" as published by G. Schimer was specified as the contest anthem in the rules. Through an unfortunate over-sight the Camden choir secured copies as published by a different house, and edited differently. Its interpretation in the contest varied accordingly. The judges decided that Camden's showing was sufficiently impressive to justify a decision in her favor; the protesting choirs held otherwise. Absence of Mr. Valentine from the city has prevented any official action by the school committee, but announcement is expected this week. Besides the choirs mentioned above, three others competed: Friendship Baptist of Bayonne, New Hope Baptist of Hackensack, Union Baptist and St. Mark A.M.E. of Montclair and Bethel Presbyterian of Plainfield. "Be an Idealist," Says Baccalaureate Speaker at Virginia State PETERSBURG, Va.—Dr. John M. Ellison, upon whom the degree of doctor of philosophy was recently conferred by Drew University, delivered the fifthth baccalaureate address to graduates of Virginia State College, last Sunday. Choosing as his subject "The Pioneer Idealist," Dr. Ellison exhorted the graduating classes to take a lesson from the life of the Old Testament figure, Abraham, to whom the Lord said "Get thee out of thy country and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house unto a land that I shall show thee." "An idealist," said the speaker "is one who is dissatisfied with the world as it is, and who has a vision of a better world that may be. He is one who has drawn an elightened and wise indictment against the world as it stands. He has framed a wise and enlightened program for the world as it should be. He is one who is sick at heart over the iniquity and inhumanity in the world as it is. He has a splendid vision of a new world wherin dwelleth righteousness." Taking examples from the lives of such "pioneer idealists" as Wycliff of England, Savonarola of Florence, Know of Scotland, Wendell Phillips, Henry Ward Beecher, and Hariet Beecher Stowe, Dr Ellison advised the graduates to follow in their paths. Dr. Ellison, who is research professor in rural sociology at Virginia State College, has been away from the college for two years to study for the doctorate. He will return to the college next fall. Morehouse College ATLANTA, Ga.—Morehouse College has this week embarked on a campaign to raise $10,000. The college needs this amount to meet current expenses, which cannot be covered with the regular income reduced this year through lower returns from invested funds and through a decrease in annual contributions. If Morehouse can raise $10,000 to complete the year without indebtedness, the college can immediately claim $116,000, which has been promised for endowment when current operating expenses have been met. Punishment by Proxy In Germany during the nineteenth century all Princes of the blood had their "Prugelknahen" that is, a boy who was brought up with the young Prince and who was spanked every time the Prince misbehaved. Editor P. B. Young Speaker at A. & T. Commencement GREENSBORO, N.C.—The thirty-fifth annual commencement of the Agricultural and Technical College, Greensboro, N.C. was held May 28 through 30, and marked the close of a very successful school year. P. B. Young, Sr., editor of the Norfolk Journal and Guide, addressed the graduating classes on May 30 on the subject, "Launched, where shall we anchor?" In introducing Mr. Young, President Bluford stated that he was a North Carolinian by birth and education and that he had come back as editor of one of the largest Negro newspapers in the country, to speak to his own people in his own way. President Bluford further stated that the Norfolk Journal and Guide was a clean and intelligently conservative paper which spoke the truth without fear or favor. Mr. Young said "There is nothing so destructive as fear, and I cannot conceive of a more proper beginning than to commend to you the words of Edmund Burke: 'Nothing is so rash as fear; and the counsels of cowardice very rarely put off whilst they are always sure to a gravate the evils from which they would fly.' "I do not wish to be revealed as unduly optimistic in these troubles times, but it would be disastrous were we to surrender to a pessimistic state of mind....We must adjust ourselves to a world that has been brought into being by science and industry; a world that reckons efficiency and achievement above personality; a world that exalts work rather than leisure; a world that thinks of groups and organizations more often than its does of individuals." On Tuesday at ten o'clock a.m. the business meeting of the A. and T. Alumni Association was attended by the largest number of graduates in the history of the association, at which time Prof. S.B. Simmons, supervisor of agricultural education in the state of North Carolina, who had just completed a study of A. and T. College graduates, stated that only 14.6 percent of the A. and T. College graduates were unemployed. The college will run two sessions of summer school this year. The first session is to begin on June 5 and close on July 15 and the second will begin on July 17 and close on August 26. Alabama State Teachers College MONTGOMERY, Ala.—With a baccalaureate plea from President H. Council Trenholm that the graduates evidence by their service, by their thinking and by their attitudes that through education they have effectively grown from childhood toward manhood, with an inspiring commencement charge from Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, of Bethune-Cookman College to the graduates to go back to the communities from whence they came and give to others the best they have with the assurance the best will come back to them, and with a warning from State Superintendent A. F. Harman to avoid the common fault of jumping at hasty conclusions before getting all the facts—13 B.S. degree graduate, 1 junior college graduates and 68 high school graduates were awarded their diplomas here at the Alabama State Teachers College on Monday afternoon in the climaxing feature of a brilliant commencement. Morgan College The commencement exercises on June 1st closed one of the most successful years in the history of Morgan College in all phases of its activities except financial. Fifty-nine young men and women were awarded the bachelor's degree as follows: 26 bachelor of arts, 15 bachelor of science in education, 17 bachelor of science and 1 bachelor of science in home economics. There were 453 students enrolled during the year, from 17 states, 41 members of the teachers' staff, 9 executives and 9 artisans and workmen. The fiscal year closed June 30. Various efforts are being put forth by the college and interested friends in order to raise about $17,000 to balance the budget. If success is attained in these efforts, the year 1932-33 will go down in the college history as one of the most memorable in its 66 years of existence. Some Achievements in Student Activities The department of speech sponsored an international debate with the team from Oxford University, England. The dramatic club appeared in 14 cities in the East and received the commendations and congratulations of dramatic critics. This club was the winner of the second prize in the annual contest of the Colored Intercollegiate Dramatic Association. The chorus of 60 voices was in constant demand in Baltimore for appearances in churches and at radio stations. The quartet made several tours in Mary, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. 21 GIRLS TO MAN SUPERHUMAN CIGAR MAKER AT WORLD'S FAIR Were on our way to WHITE OWL EXHIBIT CHICAGO 1933 WORLD FAIR "HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN" New Brunswick, N.

Morrison of WEST VIRGINIA STATE COLLEGE GETS $339,800 Salary Allowance Reduced Negro State Board of Education Created INSTITUTE, W.Va.—The West Virginia Legislature adjourned its extraordinary session late Saturday night, June 3, after passing the biennial budget bill and many laws covering the complete reorganization of some departments of the state government. West Virginia State College suffered drastic cuts in appropriations like all of the other state colleges and divisions of the state. The total biennial appropriation granted West Virginia State College amounts to $339,800 and is distributed as follows: for salaries of teachers and employees, $226,000; for current expenses, $72,800; for repairs and improvements, $12,000; and for equipment for the vocational building, $4,000. As a special item the legislature voted the use of $25,000 to the college for the erection of homes for teachers. The cut in the salary item makes the appropriation for salaries for the next two years $100,000 less than the appropriation granted the college at the last regular session of the legislature. The reduced salary appropriation will force curtailment in the personnel and academic program of the institution. Dowingtown Industrial School When a delegation of prominent Negroes of Pennsylvania appeared recently before a committee of the legislature in behalf of the Wassermann Equal Rights Bill, one of the most impassioned pleas was made by Mrs. Maude B. Coleman, of Harrisburg, of the State Welfare Department. She pointed out the embarrassments she suffered in her official travels over the State as a result of racial discriminations practiced by hotels and restaurants. Mrs. Coleman has contributed a brief talk for the pageant, "The Negro in Pennsylvania," given at the Downingtown Commencement on June 8. In it she has summariz- 21 GIRLS TO MAKE CIGAR MAKER A Were on WHITE O' CHICAGO B HAPPY DAYS A New Brunswick, N. J., May: for twenty-three employees on bound for the Chicago 1933 W of Mayor John J.

Two cigar-making machines, an assemblage manufacturing, banding, and packaging machine, and a complete air conditioning system, will be housed in the elaborate General Cigar Co., Inc., building situated on the 23rd Street Plaza. A. Building of the Century The building is typically modernistic, in keeping architecturally with the theme design of the Fair as a whole. A graceful, low-lying, one and one-half story structure, it is surmounted by two pylons, which might be called a modern rendering of the prows of the old Viking ships. In its sweeping lines its architects, Loebi, Schlosman and Demuth of Chicago, have captured the spirit of the same time have afforded the passer-by with one of the Fair's most interesting displays. A large, semi-circular high show window on the East side of the building holds the display which with an arresting freshness of conception, is a modern allegorical mural of our country's achievement. The dominating feature, an architectually correct replica of the dome and roofs of the tower, Screening the lower part of the dome in this panel are banks of clouds and foliage. Blending into the foreground is a suggestion of the landing at the Lincoln Memorial. In the immediate foreground are mirrors representing the Potomac River. Extending from tails to the extremes of the window is a continuous water effect, which blends into the waterfront of San Francisco on the west bank. A cage on the two forewings of the Central section, and of New York on the extreme right. Just behind the waterfront stands actual models. ed the problems facing the Negro. "These are the days," she says, "when the world is demanding efficiency and meritorious service and the Negro who is well trained and efficient will find new opportunities awaiting him." Evangeline V. James, postgraduate student, basketball star, and leading honor student, was voted the most popular girl at Downing-town and was crowned queen at the Osbon May party on Saturday night. At the invitation of Repertory Playhouse Associates, Miss Ruffin and Mr. Waring attended a program at the Caruso Theatre in New York on Ma; 28. A play, "You Mus' Be Bo'n Agin" by Andrew Burris, was presented in the interest of the Negro Repertory Company. At the faculty meeting on Wednesday, six scholarships were awarded for 1933-34. One of $50, given by the academic teachers, went for the second time to Alfred Webster, 10th grade; $25 each was given to Booker T. Cr ver, 9th; Harry H. Jackson, 10th, for "Most Co-operative Extra-Curricular Activity"; John I. Reid, 10th, "Most Dependable and Trustworthy Student"; Samuel T. Taylor, 7th, and Gladys T.

Church, trustee board of Western University has withdrawn the church's support from the university and voted to close the doors of the church side of the school. This action is to take effect immediately and results from the appointment of W. T. Vernon by the state board of trustees as superintendent of the industrial department. Governor Landon was notified about two months ago-that if Bishop Vernon, who is under suspension by the General Conference of the A.M.E. Church, was appointed by the state trustees, the church's support would be withdrawn. Bishop Vernon was the head of the university for many years, prior to his election as bishop. AN SUPERHUMAN AT WORLD'S FAIR our way to NEW EXHIBIT 223 WORLD FAIR ARE HER'S AGAIN Happy days are here and ahead the General Cigar Co., Inc., world's Fair with the good wishes correct in architectural proportions, of the principal landmarks and buildings of the three cities. Skylines behind the buildings give a feeling of vastness and depth. Separating these skylines are four large pylons, each surmounted by a sculptured white owl. A Dramatic Story The two side sections of this enormous display window hold a unique, dramatic story of the planting, harvesting, curing, and conditioning of the tobacco which goes into the cigar curing. Two huge color discs emergent from the skylines of San Francisco and New York reveal the story. At regular intervals they glow with color; on their faces appears a series of twenty-four pictures, each with a different evolution of tobacco seed to finished cigar. Over the entire display, lighting effects are unique and startling, with the entire color blending through the whole spectrum. On the completion of the cycle of pictures a red arrow loops back and inking unobstructed to step inside and see how White Owl are made. The interior, in fixtures, furnishings, and atmosphere, is in complete harmony with the exterior. Seventy-five feet long and thirty feet deep, it is planned to facilitate a comfortable space that they may enjoy a leisurely inspection of the superhuman cigar-making machine and its crew in action. A complete air conditioning-system will provide a cool and uniform temperature during summer months. In addition to the cigar-making building, comfortable lounge room for visitors. Mr. H. B. Skultz will be in charge of the General Cigar Co. in. Inc., manufacturing unit at the World's Fair White Owl exhibit, with Mr. Williamreal as his assistant. The young are Pearl Kaufman, Helen Koonrad, Marie Johnson, Ethel Batog, Frances Burkard, Barbara Brinjae, Mary Smith, Rose Jacob, Frances Burkard, Anna Baron, Pauline Nemetz, Mary Zenko, Adela Nesko, Kathryn Mallisek, Nelle Groshesky, Mary Bogus, Regina Rivera, Mary Kossig, Anna Bendel, and Lillian Muleet. 5 Tech Men Win Places on All-High School Team 5 Tech ARMSTRONG GETS 5 ON STAR TEAM Dunbar Has 3 and Douglass High 1 on First All High Nine S.AH.S.

No matter what men they choose, they are pretty sure to select some who would not prove among the nine best ball players were they to play 154 games in a season as do the major leagues. But the question is not what certain players might do if they played every day from April to October, but what they did in the six games during the conference season. That is the only basis for comparing the men of the different teams. In other words, the men chosen on this all-star team are named by the high school coaches, J. Young, Dardozo; C. Braw, Douglass; P. L. Jacobs, Dunbar; and C. Adams, Armstrong, because of what they did not, what they might have done under U. P.

DANIEL BLAKE St. James Blige, 26th and Broadway, New York, N. Y. TWELVE Volley Ball Teams to Clash for Eastern Championship Y.M.C.A. Spikers to Meet Southwest Philadelphia Club in Game to Decide Title on Local Court Friday When the Twelfth Street Spikers meet the Southwest Club of Philadelphia, Friday, the local volley ball fans should witness one of the best matches ever seen in the local gym. The Philadelphiaians are coming to establish themselves as the best team in the east. The visitors are worried over their two-point advantage in a match with the Spikers recently in the Quaker City. in the game when Tarzan Cooper, the Renaissance star, Slatts Davis Dr. L. P. Gordon of the visitors, Slim Thomas, King Kong Jefferies and Jumping Joe Hall get together. The local squad has a good record with victories over New York City, New Haven, Baltimore and the close Philadelphia contest. The coming match will settle the supremacy of the east. A local vic- Friday's match will bring together some of the best smashers different circumstances. On the Bases A. Cooke, of Armstrong, is named at first base on the first team. He was a steady but not brilliant fielder, and improved in his batting greatly over last years. P. Cooke, of Dunbar, had one or two bad days, but was a good man to have around the sack. He was a fair hitter. Thomas, of Dunbar, was the outstanding second baseman; a good handler of ground balls and a smart base runner. The second place goes to Hayes, of Armstrong. He can hit. L. Jackson, of Dunbar, gets the call for short stop by a slight edge because of his general all around ability, Harris, of Cardozo, with strong throwing is placed on the second team. He can hit. Clark, of Armstrong, was easily the class of the field for third base. He was the unanimous choice of all the coaches; a good thrower and fine hitter. He hit well in clean-up position. Philips, of Douglass, a streaky but hard hitter and fairly good fielder is named on the second team. The Outfielders The outfield had a lot of real class, and it takes class to stand out in a six-game schedule in the outer garden. Lucas is placed in center field, where his fine fielding skill would be of the most advantage. Beverly,' of Armstrong, a dandy all-around ball player, is put in left field, and Brown, of Armstrong, is stationed in the right field. If the boys want to switch their positions it is all right with me. There was not a batter in the league that delivered in the pinches better than Lucas and Beverly. For the second team out field, Peay, of Douglass, Jase of Dunbar, and Stewart, c. Armstrong, and in a long season any one of them might prove as good as the best of the first string. There were three outstanding catchers—Mathews, Lee and Wilson, who ranked in that order. Mathews, of Dunbar, possesses a strong throwing arm and is the most brilliant behind the plate while Lee was the steadiest and smoothest. Those Who Toss Pitching is fifty per cent of baseball, and if the truth were told, there were several pitchers who were more than fifty per cent of their respective teams this year. Cary, of Armstrong; C. Adams, of Douglass; W. Washington, of Dunbar; Shelton, of Cardozo; and Bell, of Armstrong, were as good as the conference has had in its history. Cary, the Armstrong ace, did the unusual, behind the no-run and no-hit game. Mathew, of Dunbar, is chosen captain of the first team, and Lee, of Armstrong, is given the captainy of the second team. Armstrong won the conference baseball championship and the city series. Armstrong is the winner of the first Clark Griffith silver baseball trophy. in the game when Tarzan Cooper, the Renaissance star, Slatts Davis, Dr. L. P. Gordon of the visitors, Slim Thomas, King Kong Jefferies and Jumping Joe Hall get together. The local squad has a good record with victories over New York City, New Haven, Baltimore and the close Philadelphia contest. The coming match will settle the supremacy of the east. A local victory will call for a return match. Other players participating include: for Philadelphia—Reginald Hawkins, Clarence Hawkins Doctors Maurice Dabney, T. S. Burwell, G. C. Branum, J. P.

The local maulers expect to visit the big city some time this month. The Twelfth Streeters are waiting for New York to set the date to meet the challenge. Hiking Gordon, Chief Brown and C. Jenkins, is a trio that is considered the best in the city. Gordon has yet to gaze at the sky and throws out a challenge to all. The Hiker is more than anxious to meet Greenwood Mills.

DEANWOOD BOWS TO ANACOSTIA Athletics Begin Winning Streak by Copping Twin Bill The Anacostia Athletics turned in a brace of victories last Sunday by defeating the Deanwood A. C. 17-3 and 12-1. Windy Goodlie, fleet center fielder of the A's, almost had a perfect batting average by hitting four times in five attempts. He shared honors with Bill Reed, who let the Northeasterners down with six scattered hits and struck out 10 in the first game. The veteran Cat Taylor was the hero of the losers. He made several sensational stops at short stop without an error and hit the only home run of the game. In the night cap, Ossie Steward of the A.'s pitching staff, was touched for only two hits and fanned seven. Blue Simpson, with three doubles in four trips plateward, was the outstanding batsman of the game. The Athletics will cross bats with the Oriental Tigers at Anacostia this Sunday in a doubleheader. The first game will be called at 1 p.m. Call Stanley Smith, Lincoln 3009, after 5 p.m., for games with the Athletics.

Trials and Anxieties of a Baseball Coach By CATO W. ADAMS EDITOR'S NOTE—Mr. Adams has been identified with coaching activities for about twenty-three years. His career began as a teacher in the elementary schools of Washington, when he assumed the duties of coach of baseball, baseball and track at the Birmingham school, and officers of the old P.S.A.L. (Public School Athletic League). He has coached baseball at Armstrong for ten years, in which time his school has lost the baseball championship through actual participation but once—last season with Dunbar and Cardozo, one of the Tech players was declared ineligible and the series was forfeited. By CATO W. ADAMS Although not generally conceded, there are many times in the realm of sports that a winner is forced to sympathize with his vanquished foe. Often contestants are the bitterest enemies on the field of play, yet when the fray is over the exchange of confidence is nothing short of marvelous. It was during the deciding game in May, 1928, that I count as one of the occasions that a coach's problem can be appreciated by his opponent. Until about three years ago, high school coaches had to battle not only the distance through, sometimes, bad weather to the practice grounds, with the boys complaining about "having the get back home early," or not having "carfare" or of having "bad colds" or "bad shoes," but coaches, prior to that time had to face a very formidable foe, a strict "eligibility rule" which require dthat a player must pass in all four or five majors, if he were to represent his school. "Getting permission to play, if he promised to do better work," was taboo. May 23, 1928, the then Coach Duvall Evans at Dunbar managed to get together one of his best teams. In this group were Jackson, ss; Douglass, 3b; Crichlow, cf; Brown, c; Daniel, rf; Rily, if; Anderson, 1b; Gilmore, 2b; and Rush, p. They were all hustlers and were determined to bring back Dunbar's diamond lustre. But another eager, yet green group, was up and doing at Tech. Dabney, Perry and Scott were the only regulars from the previous team, and Lynn, who enjoyed such a prosperous pitching season in 1927, was sporting a "dead" arm and helping about the infield. So, many tried and one after the other was forced to accept positions in the infield, outfield, or behind the bat. Tech surely presented a scrambled lot. Lynn, a pitcher, and Queen, a catcher, were batting for second; Vollin, the best of the pitching prospects, was shifted to short to replace the injured Ernest Johnson; Scott, who still swears that he is a pitcher, was kept at third; Allen, another catching candidate, was placed in sight because of his hitting; and "Izzy" Jones came out for first because every one else forgot that the team needed a first baseman. A more patched up lot could be found nowhere that year, anyhow. King, who prior to this time had never come out for the team, had indied success in the box. And strange to say he was the "least worst" in appearance of those who warmed up for the pitching assignment at The Campus. Dunbar was quick to profit by the inexperience of King and at the end of the third inning she enjoyed a 6-0 advantage. "Hump" Campbell with a lame arm (although no one knew it) went to the box for Tech in the fourth and held Dunbar scoreless for three innings. On the Tech side during these innings three well executed rallies brought the score LUCKY HITS BANKERS WRECKED Yes, the bankers were wrecked. Three (3) HITS three days in succession.

With two out in Tech's last, Perry, who had done nothing up to this time with the bat, walked; Johnson, who could just hobble, put up an easy fly to right center, and as Daniel clasped the ball his center fielder "took him out" completely. Over the, rolled, and so did the ball. The score was tied and the limping Johnson was on second. Edgar Lee was sent into run for him and promptly stole third. At this stage Rush committed a balk and one of the umpires waved Henderson, batting for Robinson, to first. I contended that, according to rules, Lee should score. The book was appealed to, but the umpires did not reverse the decision, so I announced that we would take our positions and play under protest. But many of the Dunbar players, including first baseman and captain, Anderson, had left the field thinking that the run had counted. When play was resumed, Dunbar did not have nine players on the field, so the game was declared forfeited. The late Newton Miller, then chairman of the memorable High School Games Committee, although one of the Tech faculty, recommended that the game be played over. On the play off, Dunbar was unfortunate to the extent of having several dependable players at work. Vollin, pitching his first high school game, held the makeshift Dunbar crew, as Tech triumphed in the deciding game, 12-5.

Washington and Carey, were never forced to exert themselves. Henry, with a triple and three singles out of four trips, Lee with a double and two singles out of three, and Clarke with a homer and two one basers out of four were the big cannonaders. Brown came through with a homer and a single in two tries. Hayes with two out of three, and Beverly and Cooke each with two out of four attempts added to the worries of the losers' hurlers. The Techites' twelfth straight success was the fourteenth victory out of a total of sixteen games. They made a clean sweep out of the six inter-high games; that gained them a season's percentage of .875. Coach Cato Adams declares that this was his best outfit since 1927.

BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL SPORT WORLD Physical Education in Negro Colleges and Universities By JOHN H. BURR Professor of Physical Education at Howard University PART VI. HISTORY OF OFFICIATING Up until 1902, officiating at Negro college football games was done entirely by members of the white officials' group. In the main, these officials were football players at nearby colleges. In 1902, Garnet C. Wilkinson, just graduated from Oberlin College, was engaged in coaching the football, team of M Street High School, where he was teaching, and began officiating in college football games at Howard University. Mr. Wilkinson was closely followed in order by A. K. Savoy, M. P. Robinson, E. B. Henderson and H. G. Douglass, all of whom were engaged in educational work. Recognition of the work and worth of these men, as football officials, was a thing of gradual growth among Negro colleges. The battle was an uphill one. To be thoroughly and constantly prepared for this pioneer work, the above named group met regularly for study and discussion of rules and for development of technique. Rendered Free Service Until 1910, the services of this group were rendered absolutely without compensation. In 1910, compensation was nominal. Officials from the white group were always more highly paid for their services. "Service" was the motto of the "study group. About 1911, having built up confidence in many quarters and having increased a bit in number, the original study group sought and received recognition by the Central Board of Football Officials, of which Dr. Babbitt, of Haverford College was chairman. Annually thereafter the names of Negro football officials appeared in the Football Guide until the recently policy of not publishing names was adopted Members of the now more widely known and recognized study group were called upon to serve on the Atlantic Seaboard from Philadelphia to Hampton and as far inland as Charleston, W.Va., Atlanta, Ga., and Tuskegee, Ala. The usual fee was $15 and expenses. Wilkinson Retires At the close of the 1919 season, Mr. Wilkinson retired from active service as an official. The rest of the group continued to develop the work which he had thus far advanced. Study groups and individuals interested in becoming football officials began to appear in other quarters. In 1928, the Washington group, with certain officials living in Baltimore and Norfolk, formed the organization known as the Eastern Board of Officials, whose object was "to promote clean sportsmanship through good officiating, observing the rules and giving a fair deal to all, to advise, to render assistance by public interpretation of rules of the various sports." The interest of the group was never confined solely to football. Gradually, from the early days, they took up work in such sports as basketball, baseball and track. It might be well to mention here that practically all of these men are college trained men, and for the most part, are engaged in educational work. The others are professional men and all stand for something worthwhile in the community. The Lorton Browns triumphed over the D. C. Eastern Giants by a 3 to 3 decision last Sunday at Lorkon, Va. The batting of Wolf, of the Brownys, who secured three hits in four trips to the plate, was one of the features of the game. E.

WEBB Scoring four markers in the fourth and eighth frames, the House of Reformation nine buried the Peoples Drug Store aggregation under a 12 to 1 count, Sunday, at Cheltenhan, Maryland. Twelve bingles rang from the bats of the lads of the "Old Line" state, five of which were good for extra bases, while the Dashington-performers could spank the offerings of Lockkhart for but a quartet of one basers. Epps started the affair and was knocked from the hill in the fourth when four bingles sandwiched between a miscue and two outs started his downfall. In this same canto the D.C. representatives counted their first and only time during the contest when John Smith received life on Gamble's fumble and pilfered the keystone sack; William Davis sacrificed and Epps punched a single through the box. From then on it was the Reformation lads' game with the Druggists having men stranded on the cushions in the sixth, seventh and eighth innings. Lockhart, with his burning speed and deceptive curves, permitted but four hits, fanned eleven, passed two and hit one. Epps, William Davis and Thomas together whiffed sixteen of the Maryland lads, passed one, but a faltering defense which committed nine errors was the outstanding factor in the second straight loss of the Washington gladiators. Wilson, Lockhart, Country, Gamble and Gilbert were each credited with two safeties in five trips to the block, while the latter duo slammed a homer apiece. Epps was the lone Peoples's performer to garner two bingles while Valencia checked in after pasting the pellet to right for a one-baser in his only trip to the plate. # REFORMATION AB H O A Wilson.c. 5 2 0 Lockhart.p. 5 2 0 Lee.b. 5 12 Country.2b. 5 2 0 Gamble.3b. 5 2 1 Gilbert.lf. 5 2 1 Goldfield.cf. 4 0 0 Mitchell.rf. 4 1 1 # PEOPLES AB H O A AB H O A Pierce.c. 3 1 0 Allen.1b. 3 1 0 A.Smith.1b. 4 0 J.Sth.f.las. 4 0 J.Sth.f.las. 4 0 Valeneca.lf. 1 1 0 Simonna.rf. 4 0 0 Epps.b.p. 3 2 0 The.ws.ton.cf. 3 1 1 Wash.ton.cf. 3 1 1 The.ws.ton.cf. 3 0 2 Totals. 42 12 27 13 Totals. 31 4 24 4 Peoples ..... 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 - - - Reformation ..... 0 2 1 1 4 0 1 1 4 x-12 Runs—Wilson, Lockhart, Country (2), Young (3), Gamble (2), Gilbert, Goldfield, Lee, Allen, J.

Mundy Choristers and Quinn Chapel Choir, famous 100-voice Negro choral group, was heard over the WABC Columbia network last Monday from 8 to 8:15 p.m. The singers were heard from aboard a barge floating on one of the lagoons at the Chicago Century of Progress Exposition. The organization was praised highly after its twentieth annual recital given recently at Orchestra Hall in Chicago. John Burdette, the Negro baritone who created a sensation in "Walk Together, Chillun," was heard as featured soloist. Rose McClendon, who plays the feminine leads opposite Juano Hernandez in Columbia's twice-weekly series, "John Henry, Black River Giant." has just recovered from an attack of "Stormy Weather." The attack lasted a week. It started right after her doctor had ordered her to bed to overcome a sudden illness, which forced her to miss two episodes of "John Henry." While she lay in bed in her New York apartment, the neighbors turned on their phonographs and radios. Harlem, you know, is where the popular tune, "Stormy Weather" originated. And that was the tune that emanated from the open windows of the neighboring apartment houses. When Mrs. McClendon had recovered sufficiently to get around again, the doctor told her she should take a sea trip. "That would be a good idea," she said, "except for one thing. Ships' bands always start playing tunes a month or so after they become popular. They'd just be getting around to "Stormy Weather" now. I think I'll just walk some place." *** Irvin S. Cobb reveals that his favorite radio programs include those that reflect Negro life and folk lore naturally. He is a keen follower of Columbia's dramatized series of Roark Bradford's "John Henry" stories. Likewise, his boyhood admiration for the Rev. "Sin Killer" Griffin, an itinerant preacher from Texas, now promises to be rivalled by his appreciation of Elder Michaux and his congregation, heard from Washington. REPU A LICHTM FRIDAY-TUESDAY D.C., each Saturday over the GBS network. "Negro preachers are natural born dramatists," Cobb says. **** Mills' Blue Rhythm Band, formerly known as Baron Lee's Blue Rhythm Band, replaces Duke Ellington at the Cotton Club in Harlem, and will also take over the Duke's three weekly broadcasts over the NBC network. **** Homer Smith, tenor singer of the Southernaires, Quartet, is to be awarded an honorary degree of Master of Music from Wilberforce University his alma mater, this week for the splendid work he has done in the field of music for the Negro race. Congratulations, Mr. Smith! Favorite Tunes of a Few Radio Favorites "St. Louis Blues" is Mildred Bailey's favorite. "Stormy Weather" is Will Osborne's. "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" voted for by Irvin S. Cobb. "Underneath the Harlem Moon" is the favorite of Rose McClendon, of "John Henry" fame.

Sam (Justice Dept.) Noisette's chief and assistant chief, J. Edgar Hoover, who has sponsored one of Sam's art exhibitions, and C. A. Tolson, respectively, are placed in the position of being penalized for protecting valuable Government papers. That, at least, according to the Federal News, appears to be the situation as outlined in an exchange of correspondence between H. B. Dellet, disbursing clerk of the Department of Justice, and the Comptroller General. According to the News: "The two Government officials made a trip from Washington to New York and return on March 20 and 21, occupying a separate room on the Pullman car because they deemed the important papers they carried would not be safe if they made the regular trip in the lower berths. "Mr. Tolson and I." stated Mr. Hoover in his official outline of the situation, "had in our custody at the time of the transportation in question, official files and papers of a confidential nature which it was necessary to safeguard with due precaution. For this reason, it was necessary to use the single room in each case." The transportation cost was increased $12.85 by this action and the Department of Justice officials sought reimbursement. The Comptroller General, in a decision made public this week, declares that the reimbursement can not be made, declaring legal provisions relating to transportation allowances are "clear and unambiguous and admit of no exceptions to the requirement that only the lowest first class rate may be allowed." Howard (P.P. & B.B.)

William Hughes (State Department) Hester, who has bought the Blue Bird Orchestra, lock, stock and barrel, from Louis Mugge, had his first stage appearance at the Howard Theatre last week. The orchestra, which is composed primarily of Government employees (all of whom had a week's leave for the stage presentation), made a creditable showing. Hester and his gang gave a debt of honor to the Owls, a social club which is composed of more than eighty-five per cent of Government employees, who have used the Blue Birds straight along. The writer was one of the charter members of the Owls and was present when "Jam-up" Jones won his argument to use the phrase "Blue Bird Orchstration" which I believe is still used on the Owl invitations. Miss Mary (Commerce) Travis was recently visited by her mother from Atlanta, Georgia. Miss Travis is the young woman who has the voice with a smile.

There will be several spacious exhibit halls recording the advancement of the colored American. "In these large halls will be shown the achievements of our race—in the arts and sciences, agriculture, commerce and industry, law, religion, education, medicine, surgery, chemistry, and all of the scholarly professions, inventions, politics; in athletic sand in soldiery; the valor and patriotism of colored men and women of this country in times of peace and war; and not the least, the noble achievements of the Negro in music and literature. "Collections of definite contributions from all over America will be assembled in their respective places in the building. Living men of note who have made contributions to civilization will be present. Pictures and history of the lives of famous colored Americans will adorn the walls. "This generation will see a brilliant, masterful exhibit of American Negro culture and achievement and long remember the great story unfolded in the hall of fame. Much of this will be accomplished by educational pictures and much by lectures, musical demonstrations, pageants and plays. "In this building which shows the progress and achievements of colored Americans, a section will be reserved for African blood influence on the culture of other countries."

TITLES BALTIMORE, Md.-The Morgan College athletes turned in their togs last week after having performed the astounding feat of winning three major championships of the C.I.A.A. in one year: football, basketball, and track. This is the first time in the history of the association that one institution has galloped off with all of the major athletic honors. Morgan joined this association in 1930. Since then one championship in track has been won, two in football and four in basketball. These unusual achievements have come about in spite of the fact that the college does not boast of having a gymnasium or a track. Coach Hurt, who directs athletics at Morgan, was asked how he accounted for the phenomenal success of his teams. He replied: "It is primarily due to the absolute confidence in their own ability and in our system of play, and I might also add, to their wonderful school spirit and loyalty."
