MD.GRAND JURY INDICTS COP IN SLAYING LATEST Washington News NOW ONLY 5C BOY, WHITE COP INDICTED IN KILLING BOY,16,SHOT TO DEATH --- VOL. XIV. No. 25 Maryland Jury Returns Manslaughter Count;Floy Released in Bond Indictment of Charles W. Flory, white Bladensburg town policeman, for the cold-blooded killing of Kater Stevens, on the night of July 22, was announced by State's Attorney Alan Bowie, late last week. Floy, suspended from further duty pending the outcome of the trial, was released on bond of $2,000. According to Attorney Belford V. Lawson, New Negro Alliance legal advisor who is in charge of the civil proceedings instituted against Floy in behalf of Stevens' widow, stated that it is the first time in the history of Prince George's County that a white man had been indicted for the killing of a Negro. The action of the Maryland grand jury in ordering the officer held for trial followed a militant fight on the part of Negroes who sought to prosecute Floy for the fatal shooting. The New Negro Alliance, the National Association for Advancement of Colored People, the Women's Federation of Prince Georges County and several other Maryland organizations opened the battle shortly after Floy was (Continued on Page 3) 2 YEARS FOR SLAYER OF BEATTY Light Sentence Given "Bobbie" Harris for Racketeer Murder Two years in jail was the sentence imposed by Justice Oscar R. Luthring on Carollta (Bobbie) Harris, in Criminal Division of the District Supreme Court. Friday. Mrs. Harris was convicted, Wednesday, on a charge of manslaughter following her trial for the killing of Charles J. Beatty, local racketeer and police figure. Mrs. Harris appeared expressionless as she was led from the courtroom by marshals. She was dressed neatly in the same green coat suit, brown hat, brown suede shoes, brown taffeta blouse, brown gloves and purse, she wore during the two days of her trial. Attorney's appeared somewhat satisfied in view of the conviction. Although it was indicated throughout the trial that an appeal was likely this idea was abandoned when it appeared that the court was impressed with the girl's position at the time of the shooting. Beatty "Bad Egg" It had been proved that Beatty was a numbers operator, a liquor baron and was extremely cruel on occasions. A killing for which he "escaped the rap" was laid to him by defense attorneys. Other witnesses testified as to the character of Beatty, and it was largely on the basis of this evidence that Mrs. Harris was vindicated to the extent of receiving a manslaughter conviction, the least of the three involving homicide guilt. The 2-year sentence carries with it the privilege of asking for a parole after 8 months of imprisonment. If this is not done, there is a likelihood that the fiery red-head will obtain her release after 20 months. Two months are allowed "off" every year of a sentence for good behavior. Washington Tribune Aged Woman Pleads for Husband Held for Blinding Her Brother Richard White, 77, Has Eye Gouged Out With Pair of Scissors During Fight Sunday With His Brother-in-law, Who is 67 Mrs. Clyde Collins Faces Trial for Slaying of Mrs. Eliza Moore A coroner's jury ordered Mrs. Clyde Collins, also known as Clyde Mullins, for the action of the grand jury following an inquest held at the District Morgue late last week. Mrs. Collins was charged with the fatal stabbing of Mrs. Eliza Moore during an alteration at 1525 Twelfth Street Northwest, Wednesday. According to the testimony the two women became engaged in a battle after words had been exchanged and the throwing of glasses followed. John W. (King George) Holland, over whom the two were said to have been arguing, declared that Mrs. Collins was the aggressor. The latter scowled at him from her chair beside an officer from the Women's Bureau. Mrs. Rachel Gregg, at whose house the crime was committed, told the jury that Mrs. Collins was nothing but a troublemaker "who lays around trying to break up people's homes." Mrs. Collins gave police her address as the rear of 1420 Sixth Street Northwest. Mrs. Moore's address was $1800\frac{1}{2}$ Eleventh Street, Northwest. Anniversary of Catholic Guild to be Celebrated The Holy Name Guild, an order of Catholic men will celebrate its eighteenth anniversary with a dance at the Masonic Temple Auditorium, Wednesday night. The Guild was organized in 1916, using as its headquarters a house at the corner of Thirteenth and S Streets, Northwest. With the growth of the organization, the group found it necessary to move to larger quarters. The taking over of the building at 1727 Thirteenth Street followed and the Guild has remained there since that time. Aged Woman Plc Held for Blindi Richard White, 77, Has Ey Scissors During Fight Brother-in-law The dignity of the police court was temporarily thrown into confusion Monday morning when Mrs. Lucy Stewart, aged woman, arose from her seat in the court room and made an impassioned plea for her husband, William Stewart, 67, 1261 First Street, Southeast, who had just been ordered held by Judge Gus A. Schuldt under a bond of $1,000 for the action of the grand jury on a charge of assault with a dangerous weapon. The aged man was charged with gouging out the eye of his brother-in-law, Richard White, 77, with a pair of scissors during a fight last Saturday. When Mrs. Stewart saw her husband being led away by court attendants, she arose from her seat and asked for permission to speak. She was granted her request. She explained that White was her brother, lived at her home and was supported by her husband. She told the court he was a trouble maker and on several occasions had threatened her husband. "He boasts, of being a bully, Selection of Local Physician as General Chairman Unpopular Despite the fact that the naming of Dr. Charles B. Fisher as chairman of the general committee on arrangements for the next grand lodge convention of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World is said to be unpopular at the two local Elk lodges, it appears that there is nothing that can be done about it due to the fact that Dr. Fisher was named by J. Finley Wilson grand exalted ruler. Judging from reports it is particularly at Columbia Lodge Number 88 that the appointment of Dr. Fisher is hailed with anything but favor. That lodge forwarded its endorsement of Herbert E. Jones, past exalted ruler, as a candidate for the position of general chairman. It is said that Columbia Lodge officials sought the support of the Morning Star Lodge Number 40, seeking to back up their candidate with the endorsement of the Fifteenth and C Streets chapter Morning Star, however, has refused to do this thus far. Fisher "Explains" In an interview with Dr. Fisher Wednesday night, it was disclosed that his appointment was in the nature of a letter from the grand exalted ruler under date of (Continued on page 3) MAN SERIOUSLY INJURED WHEN STRUCK BY AUTO Wyley Beard, 73, 911 F Street, Southwest received a fractured pelvis and other injuries when struck by an automobile that knocked him to the sidewalk at Maryland Avenue and Third Street, Southwest, Tuesday.

However, we permit him to stay at our house because he has no other place to live. He sleeps in my husband's workshop;" Mrs. Stew- art stated in a clear voice. The court explained to Mrs. Stewart that her husband was not being tried and she would have ample opportunity to explain the situation to a jury if the man is indicted. Mrs. Stewart thanked the court and left the building. Three Held Under Bond Following Gambling Raid Thomas; Bryant 24; Alfred Jones, 32, and Ralph Jones, 23, were arrested last week in a raid on an alleged gambling establishment in the 1500 block of Fourteenth Street Northwest.

Board of Education Opposes Liquor License to Cotton Club Attorneys Expressed Willingness to Enter An Agreement Not to Open Club Until After 10 P.M. Five Protest Night Club James Penn, 1600 Marion Court Northeast, complaining witness in the case of Scott Becton, 288 Hollywood Place, Northeast threatened to sue Attorney Thurman L. Dodson, president of the local Bar Association, for remarks made by Mr. Dodson to the jury in the District Supreme Court, Wednesday. Becton was being tried on a charge of assault with a dangerous weapon and interposed a plea of self-defense. Through the maneuvering of the counsel for the defendant Mr. Dodson was able to invoke the unwritten law. Becton was found not guilty by the jury after two hours of deliberation. Testimony at the trial showed that the complaining witness had been rather generous to Becton's wife, in pledging vegetables in Becton's home. Penn denied having ever been intimate with Becton's wife or having any other motive than that of a humanitarian, in allowing Mrs. Becton to benefit by his sale slashing reduction and easy credit terms. Mrs. Becton admitted that she had received money from Penn to go to the hairdresser. Becton found Penn in his home on the morning of the assault, which resulted in Penn's injury. Attorney Dodson in making his plea to the jury called Penn among other names a "rat," whose ulterior motive was to destroy the sanctity of the Becton home. Penn accosted Mr. Dodson in the corridors and informed him that his character would have to be proved in another court. Jury Finds Two Guilty on Robbery Charge Joseph T. Jones, 900 block of T Street, Northwest, and Henry Williams, 2000 block of Eleventh Street Northwest were found guilty of robbery by a jury in Criminal Division of the District Supreme Court Wednesday morning. The two men were convicted of snatching a pocketbook belonging to a white woman last July 28. Both men denied the charge. Jones testified that he was in a pool room on Sixth Street at the time of the robbery while Williams claimed he spent the entire evening of the day of the robbery at his home. Jones was represented by Attorney George E. C. Haves. Board of Educat Liquor Licens Attorneys Expressed Willin ment Not to Open Clu Five Protest The board of education meeting Wednesday at Franklin Administration Building refused to compromise with the Temple Luncheonette and Drug Company, operators of the Ctton Club, on the sale of liquor in the night club The board voted to stand by its protest to the Alcohol Beverage Control Board against issuing of an on-sale license to the owners of the club. At its meeting last October 3 a proposal by the attorneys for the club that the doors would not be opened until 10 p.m. was not favorably received, however, the matter was tabled until this week when Mr. Whitwell made the motion that blasted the hopes of the club management for the sale of whiskey. In a last appeal to the attorneys expressed willingness to enter into a stipula- Rioting Averted After Slaying of Shaw Junior High Lad; Killer Freed Although a coroner's jury on Monday freed George Ack, 46-year-old white grocery store proprietor, for the shooting of William Green, 16, a student at the Shaw Junior High School. Colored residents of the neighborhood are not altogether satisfied with the explanation given by Aed, himself, police and Green's two youthful companions. The jury itself was apparently dissatisfied as it returned a verdict of accidental death due to the defendant's carelessness. Young Green who lived at 1845 Ninth Street, Northwest, was shot to death as he stood in the store at 901 S Street, Northwest, last Saturday night. Two friends, Leroy Betts, 914 T Street, Northwest, and Granville Hill, 928 T Street, Northwest, declared it was accidental. Gun Fell From Sweater Their story to police of the Second Precinct and to the coroner's inquiry corroborated that told by Aed. The latter stated that he and Betts were engaging in a friendly scuffle when a revolver fell out of his sweater pocket. As the weapon struck the floor, it was reported, it went off, the bullet striking Green, who had been leaning on a nearby showcase, in the abdomen. Asked by Tribune reporters why Aed should have had the pistol on his person, Bernard D. Crooke, white policeman attached to the precinct and the arresting officer in the case, said that the man was permitted to carry the revolver as a means of protection against holdups, he having been subjected to banditry several times in the Cotton Opposes e to Cotton Club ngness to Enter An Agree- b Until After 10 P.M. t Night Club tion with the A.

C. board that the club would not sell liquor until after 10:30 p.m. Paul Quinn, board member, stated that on investigation he had learned that at hour would effect classes at Garret-Patterson Junior High School as certain night classes are held there until that hour. The board also received communications from five persons protesting against the issuance of the license. They were W. A. Graves, 1215 U Street, editor of the Daily News; George W. Beasley, president of the Central Northwest Civic Association; Ralph E. Evans, 1917 Vermont Avenue; Edward W. Lewis, 1915 Vermont Avenue, and the Rev. George O. Bullock., president of the Garret-Patterson Parent-Teacher Association. --- PASTOR OUT; CLAIMS HE RESIGNED Church Members Declare They Ousted Rev. E. M. Tyre at Rehoboth Although no formal charges were presented at any of the many church meetings held in connection with the discussion of his resignation, submitted several weeks ago, the Rev. Edward M. Tyre, pastor of the Rehoboth Baptist Church, First Street between N and O Streets, Southwest went out as head of that religious institution Friday night. Despite the fact that persistent rumors of indebtedness by the pastor to the church, members of its congregation and prominent business men of the community were going the rounds, none of the charges were aired in the church that he insisted that if there were any charges lodged against him, the Rev. Mr. Tyre interviewed at his home, 522 Third Street, Southwest, Monday, told the Tribune that he insisted tait if there were any charges the church present them however, there was no intimation of any charges. Refused Letter It is understood that internal strife and general dissatisfaction about the pastor's service have been smoldering in the church for sometime and culminated with the submission of the Rev. Mr. Tyre's resignation several weeks ago. The church was willing to accept the resignation but steadfastly refused to give the minister a letter of recommendation as he had requested. This refusal brought about the "conditional resignation" of the Rev. Mr. Tyre as reported in the Tribune last week. He preached his lft sermon at the church Sunday, September 30. Since that date the pulpit has been occupied by visiting ministers and the Rev. Mr. Elmo, assistant pastor. At Friday night's meeting, the (Continued on page 2) PHYSICIAN HELD UNDER $2500 BOND Dr. Samuel L. Starks, 1132 New Jersey Avenue was held for the action of the grand jury this week under a bond of $2,500 following a charge of performing an illegal operation on a young woman. Police refused to give the name of the woman who is in Freedmen's Hospital in a serious condition. The physician waived a preliminary hearing in Police Court Tuesday before Judge McMahon. The woman is said to have told hospital physicians about her condition when she was told how serious she was. Dr. Starks was arrested following an investigation by police. He is being represented by Attorney John H. Wilson and Otha Branson. The physician was connected with an illegal operation case some time ago in which a white woman was involved. The charge against him was no罪 pressed. Miner College Graduate Succumbs daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles W. Gibson, of Lawnside, N.J., who died recently. Miss Gibson was a graduate of Miner College, Washington and was a teacher in the Charles Sumner School, Camden, N.J. Child Widow Looms as Winner of Court Fight Over $30,000 Estate Man Who Claims to Be Son of Simon W. Sheffield is Disowned TRIBUNE HAS WORD FROM RELATIVES Letters Assert Deceased Wealthy Barber Had No Prior Marriage Whether or not Leon Sheffield, Army War College inmate, and self-styled heir to the near $30,000 estate of Simon W. Sheffield, has a "surprise" up his sleeve ready to be sprung when the celebrated inheritance battle enters the courts this month remains to be seen. Although young Sheffield appears confident that the court will vindicate him in his claim for a son's share in the estate, a Tribune investigation of the circumstances leads to the belief that Mrs. Sheffield will have all the best of the fight when the hearing takes place. Sheffield, through a petition filed last month, seeks to force the "child widow" to recognize in him a rightful beneficiary. In her request for the right to administer the estate, Mrs. Sheffield, 21-year-old widow of the deceased wealthy barber, told the court that she was the sole next of kin to Mr. Sheffield. Birthright Claimed Shortly after letters of administration were awarded Mrs. Sheffield, Leon entered with his claim. A birth certificate showing that he was born, a son of Simon W. he was born, a son of Simon W, (Continued on page 3) Wife Leaves Mate For His Activity with Reds WINSTED, Conn.—Ruth K. Ades, wife of Bernard Ades, well known Communist lawyer of Baltimore and defense attorney in the famous Euell Lee case, was granted her freedom from her husband last Thursday on charges of desertion. The action was heard in Superior Court. Mrs. Ades said she was married March 29, 1928, and she and her husband moved to Baltimore, where he became interested in a radical group. She said he insisted upon holding meetings of his radical friends in their home and that he forced her to join in the sessions. Mr. Ades said she knew little of such matters and that when she attempted to discuss matters with the group she was laughed at. TEACHER IS DISMISSED BY BOARD Miss Beulah Shippen Not Permitted to Resign From School System Miss Beulah Shippen, teachers of Browne Junior High School was dismissed by the board of inefficiency. This action by the board rescinded a previous action on October 3 when Miss Shippen was allowed to resign. She offered her resignation when she saw that the board would not reinstate her or compromise by transferring her to another school. Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent, stated to the board that he recommended that the teacher he dismissed because it is not the policy of the board to accept a verbal resignation and since Miss Shippen had not submitted her resignation in writing he recommended that she be dismissed from the service. When put to a vote the recommendation of the superintendent did not receive a dissenting vote. At the last meeting of the board George E. C. Hayes, attorney for Miss Shippen asked that his client be transferred to another school. This was refused. Then he asked that the board permit her to resign which was allowed, but the action was rescinded when Miss Shippen failed to send in her resignation in writing. Widow of William Scott Wins in Court of Appeals The Court of Appeals, last Friday denied a rehearing of the William McKinnie Scott case in which his widow, Mrs. Julia B. Scott, is asking compensation under the Working Men's Compensation Law for the death of her husband who was fatally burned November 23, 1932 when an apartment house caught fire on Rhode Island Avenue. The owners of the building sought a rehearing of the case when the local commission ruled that the widow was entitled to compensation. Mrs. Scott was represented by Attorney J. Flipper Derrickte SAYS METHODIST UNION MUST BE PREJUDICE FREE Dr. Medford Stresses Fath erhood of God Before Group in Baltimore Addressing a group of 2,000 bishops and other leaders representing world Methodism, at the Methodist Sesqu-Centennial celebration in Baltimore last week, representing his denomination, Dr. H. T. Medford of Washington, Foreign Mission secretary spoke on the "Attitude of the A.M.E. Zion Church on Methodist Unification." He cited historical incidents showing that A.M.E. Zion Church has always been aggressive in movements for union with other Methodist groups, and concluded the address by saying : "Permit me to say that facing the world conditions today we see and feel the need of Methodist unity more than at any time in the past. "The A.M.E. Zion Church recognizes that its forefathers and founders, left the Mother Church to secure for themselves and those who were to follow them a greater religious liberty, and opportunity to more fully exercise their God given gifts and graces, and to avoid the humiliation and proscription they were meeting from time to time. "We will stand by and execute and live out to the letter, our part of any agreement for union as we have done heretofore; but it must be remembered that with those who lead the A.M.E. Zion Church today, the 'faith of our fathers' the daring Christian manhood, of our fathers, 'living still' will not permit us to be a party to any plan of union except that which knows no Greek nor Jew, no bond or freed, and that conforms in its creed and practice to the fatherhood of God and brotherhood of man as taught by Jesus Christ."

Mr. Brown Preaching "Family Day" was the feature attraction at Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, Sunday, with the pastor, the Rev. W. H. Jernagin preaching. He used Joshua 24:15 as his text. The pastor said that the head of every family should be a Christian. One of the greatest jobs in the world is home building. It is a sad commentary upon the church the way so many of our homes have gone to wreck. It is really appalling to know the chaos reigning in the houses called "homes." The speaker said that he was old fashioned enough to believe that both parties marrying should love each other. He gave examples of the various Bible homes, beginning with disobedient Adam and Eve in God's home—Paradise—on through Noah's family who obeyed; Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebekah, who acted unwisely. He said that Jacob's home was cursed with jealousy of Joseph's prominence resulting in his being sold into Egypt. He spoke of Job's home as a broken home where fortune and misfortune reigned. At the conclusion of the service, two persons united with the church. The annual revival service started Monday night with the Rev. Mr. Brown of New York City conducting the services.

Mr. Reynolds was accompanied by Miss Anthia Charles, student of music at Howard University. The assembly was sponsored by Miss Leanna F. Johnson, teacher of shorthand and typewriting, and director of the guidance work at Cardozo The Boys' League of Cardozo High School met for the first time Friday and named a committee for drafting a constitution for the organization. John Yeldell, 12B1, was named chairman of the committee. He will be assisted by George Davis, 12B1: Louie Chaffin, 12A2; Godfrey Dummore, 11B1 and John Thomas Martin, 11A1, S. A. L. Norville, teacher of English, is the sponsor of the league. Miss Belmira Nunes recently resigned as teacher of shorthand and typewriting to accept a similar position in one of the high schools in New York City. Miss Nunes' appointment came as a result of a competitive examination in which she headed the list of more than 1,000 persons. "Conduct at Football Games" proved to be a timely topic for discussion in the various home rooms of Cardozo Monday during the regular home room hour. As this discussion comes as a preliminary to Cardozo's first game, students were especially interested and enthusiastic in making comments and suggestions. Emphasis was placed on the fact that "Laurels for Cardozo are won not only by the boys on the field who fight to bring victory, but also by Cardozo spectators who conduct themselves in an intelligent and dignified manner." SHAW Shaw Junior High School has an enrollment of 1,533 pupils, the largest in the history of the school. Due to this enrollment it is necessary to have three assemblies: seventh, eighth and ninth grades, respectively. The programs for the assemblies for the semester were begun on Wednesday morning. October 10, by Section 8A1, Miss C. M. Houston, teacher, in a program of songs, athletic dancing and recitations. The president of the section Elaine Brazier, presided and gave the welcome address. On Thursday, October 11, Section 981 had charge, and the girls sponsored by their section teacher Miss R. W. Browne, presented a program in memory of Christopher Columbus. Pupils who took part in the program were: Thela Harrison, Sara Stewart, Sylvia Rich, Cordella Dickerson, Audrey Contee, Rose Beckett, and Christine Greene. There were also a vocal solo and an instrumental solo. The first educational faculty meeting was held on Tuesday, October 9. The faculty was addressed by Mrs. D. I. Miller, head of the department of home eco- nonomics. Mrs. Miller chose as her theme "Home Economics in the New Program of Education," in which she stressed some new developments in home economics in the schools. On Friday, October 12, the seventh grade assembly was presented with a Columbus Day program by Section 7B1, sponsored by Mrs. Muse. Marion Moseley presided ARMSTRONG At the organization of the Sans Egal Club composed of senior boys of Armstrong High School, the following officers were elected for this year: George Preston president, C-7; John Gray, vice president, B-8; Eugene Taylor, treasurer, B-7; Robert Goodloe recording secretary, C-7; Carlisle Plural, financial secretary, C-7; Francis Freeman, sergeant-at-arms, C-7; Henry Briscoe chaplain, B-7. The club is sponsored by B. C. Dodson who is assisted by P. J. Williams The section president stated to the boys, 25 in number in assembly on Wednesday, the goals their sections had adopted for the school year to February 1 1935. Stanley Harris, director of international relations and member of the executive staff of the Boy. Scouts of America, made a five-minute talk. G. David Houston, principal, charged the boys to be mindful of their resolutions lest they be into hite discard and into oblivion soon after they are made. The assembly was held in connection with the character building program and was presided over by J. C. Webster one of the counselors. The Girls' Advisory Club, composed of the presidents of all of the girls' sections was organized by Mrs. Ora W. Spivey on Wednesday morning. Twenty-one presidents were present. After the purpose of the organization was outlined by Mrs. Spivey, the following officers were elected: Grace Fitch, president, D-7; Addie Christie vice-president, C-6; Dorothy Jackson, secretary, F-4; and Madelin Summons, treasurer, B-2. The group decided the first thing to be done was to formulate goals for this organization which would be in keeping with the character program. Mrs. I. T. Perkins was present and made some suggestions. G. David Houston presided at the monthly faculty meeting held Wednesday, October 10. The Principal's Cabinet The principal G. David Houston, organized his cabin, composed of a representative from each section on Thursday morning. After Everett Hewlett was elected secretary, Mr. Houston stated that the purpose of the cabinet is to bring up and discuss all school problems to improve conditions. He further stated that each member is expected to be a model in conduct and co-operation. Some of the objectives formulated by the group were one hundred per cent attendance, increased cafeteria patronage by students and one hundred per cent athletic membership. At the second meeting of the Honor Roll Society held Friday, October 12, Grace Fitch, a member of the National Honor Society, explained to the group the requirements for membership in the National Society. Ruby Brown, the president, presided. National Pharmacy week was celebrated by an assembly of juniors and seniors on Friday morning. At this time J. C. Webster introduced Dr. Antoine Greene, associate professor of the department of pharmacy at Howard University, who spoke of pharmacy as a profession. TERRELL The girls of the various sections of the Terrell Junior High School are competing to determine which group will be first to obtain 100 new competence in physical education uniforms. It seems that the majority of the girls realize the important significance attached to being prepared for activity; they realize that lack of preparation means exclusion from activity, which naturally leads to a final lowering of the standard of work. During homecomet period, Monday Section 9A3 received helpful hints from the officers of the section concerning the improvement of their conduct and scholarship The discussion was in charge of Earl Robinson, president of the section, who introduced the discussion. Each officer made observations. To make Section 9A3 the best all around section in the building is their goal. Section 8A2 enjoyed a taffy pull Monday, at the seventh period. The taffy was made by the girls in the domestic art class under the supervision of Mrs. Aveille. Frank Felder, Harry Humphries, Bernard Matthews and David Simms, of 9A1, have reason to be proud of a steam turbine engine which they constructed under the direction of O. F. N. Madden in the sheet metal shop. The engine runs smoothly and turns a table of considerable weight. The same group is working on a metal exhibition cabinet for the display of objects made in the shop. Felder also made his mother a set of cookie cutters. Public Schools At assembly, Thursday Firemen Briscoe and Bush spoke to the grades 7A, 7B and 8A on fire prevention. After the talk by Fireman Briscoe, the pupils asked Fireman Bush questions about rescue, the number of fires how alarms are answered and methods of fire fighting. At the Friday assembly competitive singing was held. Each section handed in the name of one song that they wanted to sing and the other pupils acted as judges. A new song called "Sundown" and sung to the tune of "Danny Boy" was the favorite of three sections. The final contest will take place in a few days and all the sections are practicing so as to win the prize. Assembly programs are under the direction of Mrs. L. M. Hillman. The pupils of Section B' are studying home and family relations in their home economics class. Social responsibilities in the home was Monday's problem. As an outgrowth of this problem the class engaged in a delightful party. Graciousness, unobtrusiveness, and careful grooming of the hostess were the characteristics stressed. Irene Whittington acted as father and Millie Pressley, mother. Primrose Hardin Viola Runsey and Edith Bruce were the children. The other members of the class were the guests. DUNBAR The Parent-Teacher Association of Dunbair High School held its first meeting of the school year on October 11 with the Rev. J. J. D. Pair president, presiding. A committee of five parents with Edward T. Gant, chairman, was elected to bring in nominations for officers for the present school year. After an address by the principal, W. L. Smith, several parents participated in an open forum. During the summer the Parent-Teacher organization defeated an attempt of a storekeeper in the vicinity of Dunbair to secure a lionor license. The football team annexed its second victory of the season by defeating the Leesburg School eleven by the score 40-0 on October 11 in the Walker Stadium. The annual drive to secure membership in the Dunbar Athletic Association is meeting with success many students taking advantage of the new installment plan. Buying a season ticket to approximately fifty athletic events enables students to save money, as well as permitting the purchase of equipment for about 200 boys and girls who participate in the intra-mural and inter-scholastic athletic program. Captain Mansfield, creator of "Those Were the Happy Days," a cartoon feature in the magazine section of the Sunday edition of the Washington Star, entertained the students at assembly on October 11. After relating many personal experiences in journalism, the well-known artist sketched cartoons on a large easel. The assembly program was sponsored by the Dunbar Observer, school publication beginning its eleventh year. Other participants included Victoria Todd, president of the senior class; Nathaniel Dixon, president of the junior class; Philip Butcher, editor-in-chief; and Charles Fearing, former editor-in-chief. Mrs. J. J. Bentley, one of the faculty sponsors of the Observer, presided. FRANCIS At the assembly period, Friday, Section 7B4 presented a program culminating observance of Fire Prevention Week. The following children demonstrated through skits various causes and methods of prevention of fire as well as types of treatment for injury: Wilbur Johnson, Charles Mayes, Clarence Washington, Thomas Winston, William Taylor George Long, Joseph Hogan, William Snyder, William Waddell, Eva Branch, Ruth Cain, Vashti Jackson Florence Smith, Cora Shepherd, Theodore Thomas, Doris Cain, Ruby Harcoun. Guest speakers were Sergeant Briscoe and Privates Shorts and Evans of Fire Engine Company No. 4. Their talks included information regarding dangers of fire instructions relating to methods of calling the fire department and proper conduct at a fire. The use of the gas mask and life belt was also exhibited. Theresa Jones presided with Miss K. B. Bruce in charge. Two music assemblies have been held, with group singing as the feature, under the direction of Miss V. L. Williams. Seventh grade pupils selected as leaders of their sections for this semester are: 7A1, Marie Hackett and William Kay; 7A2, Geraldine Holland and William Shields; 7A3, Ruth Jeter and Alfred Johnson; 7A4, Carolyn Mills and Charles Watson; 7A5, Viola Geter and Judge Snapp; 7B1, Evelyn Hackett and Robert Anderson; 7B2, Thomas Hammond and Virginia Carter; 7B3 Gussie Morgan and Donald Butler; 7B4, Theresa Jones and George Long. 32 ON HONOR ROLL RALEIGH, N. C. — A report regarding scholarship at Shaw University reveals that thirty-two students earned an average grade of "B" or higher last semester and were included on the honor roll for that period.

New Jersey Avenue at N Miner Teachers Featuring extracts from his writings and impressions by his contemporaries, the Social Service Club of Miner Teachers' College presented a pre-anniversary day program Wednesday in honor of Theodore Roosevelt. Miss Ernestine Ricks, president of the Social Service Club, spoke on the social work gone by Theodore Roosevelt and recalled the founding of the Social Service Club at Miner Teachers' College in 1921. Albert Lewis, '36, delivered a short address on "Roosevelt the Man." Other numbers on the program included: extracts from the addresses of Roosevelt, delivered by Florence Green, Thomas Tibbs and Odessa Underwood; and readings from Thayer and Hagedon, delivered by Marjorie C. Holloman, Mildred E. Denmark, Josephine Simons Hazel Bruce and Grace O. Hunter. Margaret Washington All the rooms and cogridors of the school are being painted. Despite the inconvenience the classes have been going on as usual. The clean walls have added very much to the general atmosphere of the building and classrooms. Very interesting projects in canning, preserving and pickling have been in progress in the domestic science classes. Many beautiful and artistic jars of the finished products are on display in the cooking laboratory. The recess period is becoming quite popular for play activities on the playground. Leaders have been elected from each section who supervise games during this time. Many sets of games are in progress at the same time engaged in by different sections. It is hoped in the near future that sections will compete with each other for honors in basketball, baseball, volleyball and dodge ball. Mrs. B. E. Edwards and Mrs. B. B. Butcher head this program. About sixty of the girls availed themselves of the wonderful opportunity afforded them in taking part in the "Self Help" pageant presented last Tuesday evening on the steps of the Capitol. More than 1000 persons sang in the chorus directed by Prof. Alfred Johnson director of music in the public schools divisions 10-13. The singing was beautiful. Every word could be distinctly heard and the voices blended in perfect harmony. The group is to be complimented for their excellent performance. The "One Day Clinic" held last week primarily for the physical examination of the 7A girls in the Character Education Experiment was quite a success. The defects found from the examination have been carefully recorded and already remedial measures have been taken by Mrs. B. B. Butcher, the counsellor, to correct any condition found to militate against the child and her work. The program aims to follow all these cases until the disability is wiped out such a thing is possible. The principal and faculty desire to thank all physicians, dentists and nurses who so willingly gave their services for this project. on Week was ob- taine rooms from Data concerning prevention was all sources and dis- sorral assembly was afternoon at which from Engine Com- pressed and spoke concerning fires and on, after which he questions asked by Dr. Ethel M.

Lack of Play Space Stressed by Citizens Mrs. Anna Murray was the principle speaker at the first regular meeting of the Morse-Twining Parent-Teacher Association meeting, last Thursday evening. Mrs. Murray spoke of the inadequate playground facilities for elementary schools. She urged that a committee be appointed to confer with the Park and Planning Commission in reference to play ground facilities. She declared that it is of the utmost importance that the right facilities surround children to enable them to meet the conditions that face them. It was pointed out that 178 boys at the Twining School have one small room in which to play. Mrs. Marie M. Brown, principal of the Morse-Twining group gave a very interesting talk. The following officers were selected for the current year: president, Mrs. Anna M. Murray; vice president, Mrs. Lena Smith, secretary, Mrs. Aileen Brown, and treasurer, Miss Miller. Tuesday Evening Social Workers Re-elect Staff The Tuesday Evening Club of Social Workers resumed its meetings Tuesday at the residence of the president, Dr. Clara S.

Phone Potomac 6081 Reed Stops Buster Hall in Indoor Boxing Inaugural Baltimorean Much the Best in Go With Former West Coast Star Baltimorean Much the Best in Go With Former West Coast Star Favorites Have Tough Sledding on First of Cards at Lincoln Colonnade; Judges Guilty of Misconduct in Semi-final TWELVE AUGUSTA. Ga.-Coaches Harper and Brown of Paine College here, have several good reasons for expecting their eleven to severely trounce the Edward Waters segregation here next Saturday. A wealth of good ball-carriers, the best backfield material the Tigers have had in several years. By SAM LACY Displaying a damaging left job that played havoc with the defense of Buster Hall, Calvin Reed, former sparring mate to Jimmy McLarnin, world's Welterweight champion, scored a marginal decision victory over the former west coast sensation in the main go of the Lincoln Athletic Club's initial indoor boxing session last night (Wednesday). A fair-sized crowd, not nearly as large as was expected to be on hand as the Lincoln Colonnade dung open its doors to legalized boxing, witnessed the proceedings. They saw the favorites go down in three of the five bouts on the card, although the official verdict was east against the choices in only two of them. By the use of rose-colored glasses or some other weapon of extreme optimism the judges returned Baby Kid Chocolate the winner over Carlos Zavolla in the semi-final. But to get to the main bout in which Buster Hall had been heralded as the standout. Hall, last night, deserved to be no nearer the same ring with Reed than was the traffic cop at Seventh Street and Pennsylvania Avenue. The Baltimore youngster was head and shoulders above his rival from California. In another fight, after Hall has learned to keep away from that cutting left of Reed's, the latter may have to come away with the short end. But with the gore drawn from a badly mattered nose as early as the sixth round, Hall could hope for little support in the final voting. In the semi-windup, Zavolla, showing a style different from any that has been on display here since the beginning of the era of legitimatized mauling, forced the fighting throughout his go with Baby Chocolate. Fighting from an unorthodox crouch, out of which he sprang with the speed of a jackrabbit and the deadliness of a cobra the Roancke featherweight piled points up on the bewildered Chocolate while he was trying to solve his opponent's attack. There was no question but that Chocolate was the more colorful of the two fighters, but so was Hall for that matter. It could only be astigmatizm that would make those judges favor the Atlantic City youth in that match. Unlike most "cover fighters" Zavolla bore in the entire time. And when he cut loose he did so with blows that landed and that stung. And the wide, windmill uppercuts that he made Chocolate miss served to keep Referee Pop Truitt cool in a ring that was beclouded with smoke and heat. Young Kid Buffalo and Kid Green were the two favorites who scored. They heat Kid Chris, muscle-bound Washingtonian, and Kid Jap Detroit, in the order named, Sammy Williams counted the first upset on the card when he took the measure of Unknown Thomas, RINALDI SUIT HAND TAILORED TOPCOAT or OVERCOAT $35.00 from the smartest materials.

(ANP)—A former South Kingston high school three letter man. Charles Hazzard, has enrolled at the Rhode Island State College, it was announced, and is a candidate for the Rams' freshman football team. At South Kingston Hazzard was picked on three all-state teams in basketball, football and baseball. He was the choice of the Daily Chronicle for the 1934 Honor Roll. Hazzard is ranged and has plenty of speed. He is a backfield man at football and last Monday during scrimmage, he turned in several fine runs. highly respected New Yorker, in a slugging second setto BISONS WIN FIRST C.I.A.A. TILT BY SCORE OF 25-6 St. Paul Victims of Blue and White West-Coached Grid Machine LAWRENCEVILLE. Va. — The Blue and White of Howard University waved in victory over the crushed hopes of the St. Paul Tigers in the former's initial C.I.A.A. test of the 1934 season, here last Saturday afternoon. Coach Charlie West's aggregation of Bisons captured the verdict by the decisive margin of 25-6. The Tigers made their lone touchdown in the first minutes of play when the shifty St. Paul tackle, Pretlow recovered a pount over Howard's goal line. In the early part of the second quarter the Bisons started a drive which resulted in a touchdown. For the remainder of the quarter the teams battled nip and tuck. During the remainder of the game the visitors outplayed the St. Paul team in all departments of the game during which time the Bisons rolled up 19 points. For the Howard team, Perkins, Armstrong, Holloman, Holloman and Sutler did some fine line plunging and broken field running to pile up the 25 points that the team scored during the game. The whole line did a fine job in the way of blocking and tackling so that the backs could push over the scores. Outstanding among the Howard linesmen were Gealier and Patterson. For St. Paul, Clarence Williams looked best. He kept the Howard tackles constantly on their guard with his shifty open-field running. The Bisons were hampred somewhat by the absence of e-coaptain Cole, who was on the sideline with an injured knee. Howard St. Paul Bridges ..... L.E. .. Washington Patterson ..... L.T. ..

WEEK ENDING OCTOBER 20. 1984 Looking 'em Over by SAM LACY With the Tribune Looking 'em Over by SAM LACY With the Tribune Your writer was presented just yesterday, with an opportunity of giving local golfing fans an insight on the feelings of someone other than himself anent the golfing situation here in the nation's capital. Happy Walters, for several years one of the leaders in the group that takes the ancient Scotch game seriously, writes long and loud in this week's installment of "The 19th Hole." Without further ado, let's lift that type out of that column and shift it over here—let's let "Jawn Awlden" speak for hisself, selah! "Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays have been allotted colored golfers on the Carroll Park Municipal Course, in Baltimore. I also learned that the first and third Sundays in every month have been set aside for those of our race who crave Sabbath golf. "It appears that justice had both eyes open in this affair, the court having done what was within its power to divide the month evenly. A little of this kind of judgement on Washington's municipal courses would not hurt the city's Negro golfers a bit. I positively do not believe there are ten men with heart enough to take up this issue. That's broad talk, but who can prove me wrong?" "What in the name of common sense do we want with a golf organization if it is not going to aid us in some manner? We have the Royal Club, but what effort does it put forth to help any of its members or anybody else connected with the game for that matter? If it meant well and craved growth, I'm sure a delegation would have presented its demands long ago and taken steps to make this club one of the strongest of its kind. "Instead it appears the members are only interested in its exclusive membership list and to my knowledge there never has been a drive instituted for new members. "If there are officers in charge who are too timid or careless to go to the front for the players of that club and those in general, then let them step down and put some one at the head who will do something. This organization has been in bloom for night on to three years now and if anybody can tell me what's being done for its members, or anybody else, I'll cast them a medal. "I refused to join this organization simply because it would keep me from being loyal to those who have looked to me—I refer to the caddies now—and these boys are better organized than any of the clubs hereabouts." "I think this little criticism will set me on the right track if I'm wrong for I know I will receive letters concerning my denunciative remarks in regards to the Royal Club. I do not profess to be this or that but as far as effort is concerned I've seen the time I've exerted as much as two Royal Clubs in working for our golfers. "We should be pulling together, but are we? I should say not and it looks like some counter organization would serve to wake up this Royal Golf Club and put its members wise to their duty, which is to members and race. It wouldn't hurt a bit to try some workers in the field, Messrs. Officers, and at least prove the organization will put forth some effort to aid Washington's golfing fraternity." The author of this colum fully appreciates the militant spirit shown by this Tribune correspondent, but..... The author of this colum agrees that Baltimore city officials have shown a more tolerant attitude toward colored golfers of that city than our own have toward us, but..... The author of this colum, like Mr. Walters, finds the local situation most exasperatingly distasteful, but.... the author of this colum, like Mr. Walters, feels that organized effort is the only solution to our problem, but.... The author of this columx expects Mr. Walters to be reprimanded for his "nerve" in writing his criticisms, but...my advice to him would be, "don't pay no 'tention to the cullid brother when you write what you know to be true." Those "buts" your writer has inserted above were placed there for obvious reasons. This author seeks the same end that Mr. Walters hopes to reach eventually, but his method of attack is radically different. I, SAM LACY, HAVE AS LITTLE CONFIDENCE IN DELEGATION AS ANY ONE PERSON COULD HAVE IN ANY ONE THING. My theory? Well, I really don't know what it is. But when my thoughts go back to the days of my infancy there always seems to be something that forges its way to the front in those reflections that might serve a good purpose in later life. When my mother wanted me to have oatmeal water and I wanted hot dogs, I just opened my dainty little mouth and yelped against taking oatmeal water. True enough I didn't get the hot dogs but I got something just as good—cormeal mush. A little later on when I ate so many chicken necks that I began to hate to see time for Sunday's dinner come around, I just started losing my appetite about half-past two every Sabbath. My reward was in the form of a nice juicy drumstick in place of the usual chicken neck. Now my contention is that if I had gone on continuing to make myself satisfied with oatmeal water and neckbones, the chances I'd never have known and had my fill of hot dogs; I'd still be thinking a fowl was related to the snake family because it had not legs. Why should we think the corner grocer is going to stock up with watermelons as long as he can sell us in the community cucumbers? HOMESTEAD GRAYS SWAMP NEWARK Ebbetts Field, Brooklyn Tilt Goes to Pittsburghers With Little Effort BROOKLYN. N.Y.-The Homestead Grays of Pittsburgh conquered the Newark Dodgers, 20 to 6 in a Negro hsaeball charity game, Sunday at Ebbets Field. Although hit hard, William Gestentaver, Homestead pitcher managed to twirl the entire game. Catcher Fred Burnett of the Homesteads was injured in the fourth inning when he crashed into the stands while chasing a foul ball. Burnett was taken to the Swedish Hospital suffering from a slight concussion. The money realized from the contest was announced as approximately $1,200. Errors were a dime a dozen because of the poor condition of the field due partly to the rough use in the football game on Saturday. The Grays jumped into a five-run lead in the first inning on five hits but the Dodgers hammered Gistenaver for ten runs in the next innings. A barrage of ten hits hungled with errors and passes netted WARD IS HELD IN CHECK, CHI WINS Michigan Negro Star Unable to Get Going; First Loss in 4 Years CHICAGO, Ill.—An inspired University of Chicago football team rose to the occasion last Saturday afternoon and toppled the University of Michigan eleven from the top of the roost of the Big Ten, where it has perched for the past 4 years, turning the champs back by the one-sided score of 27-0 It was the largest margin by which Chicago ever has defeated Michigan, the largest score by which Michigan has lost since 1919. Willis Ward, the crack Negro griddier who last year was one of the country's greatest ends, was playing his second game as a backfield man. Ward, out of position, was unable to get going and consequently was never a serious threat to the locals. No Wolverine was watched as was the speedy colored lad, however. the Grays 13 runs in the fifth and sixth frames. $100 STAKE GAME CAPTURED BY HILLSDALES $100 STAKE GAME CAPTURED BY HILLSDALES Rajah-DePriest Bid for Win Over City Champs Wilts Early The highly-advertised "stake game" between the Hilledales, city champions, and the Rajah-Depriest baseball team went down in history as a complete "fop" as the "Prides of LeDroit Park" established a comfortable margin to win as they pleased on the Sixtieth and Clay Streets Northeast, diamond, Sunday. The Potentates went down under a one-sided, 13-5 defeat. Slim Barnes, elongated submarine artist of the Northeasterners, toed the slab as the 'Dales opposing moundsman, but for the first time this year were compelled to call for succor. Dave Stroman, fast ball flinger came to his aid long before his scheduled time for retirement. 'Dales Never Threatened The recently crowned District titlists went after the scalps of the DePriest bunch with the opening of proceedings. Combining deceptive bunting and daring base-running with timely hitting, the Hillsdales went to the front with a 4-run advantage as the Rajahs went to bat for their first turn. Fauntroy, Black, Turner and Hope led the attack with 3 hits apiece. Geechie Williams, Toots Brown and Dick Temple were kept out of the fray by the 'Dale management until late in the game when they were inserted at will. Addison's 3 hits were best for the losers. He, however, was closely followed by Connor in the matter of batting effort. The latter connected for a pair of bingles, one of which was a home-rum with two imates aboard. Spike Bland had the mound assignment for the winners and was never in serious trouble.

The teachers warmed up slowly, being unable to score in the first two quarters. In the second quarter, Manassas having scored a fumble on Miner's twenty-yard line, tried hard to turn the "break" into a touchdown, but were unable to plough through the teachers' line for any substantial gains. The half ended with both sides scoreless. Forsythe of Miner started the scoring, breaking through the Virginian's line in the third quarter. Tignor scored the second touchdown in the same quarter, and D. Brown the third in the next. Miner scored one of the evtra points out of the three trials. Manassas (0) Miner (10) Position Tibbs .....

Bows to Brooks Golf Finals Standing Unable to Overcome of Challenger; Victory Harris Wins Second By "Happy" Walters Jimmy Williams, greatest wizard that ever strolled the Memorial links "went down swinging" last Sunday, in the finals of the District Golf Tournament. Rueben Brooks was good enough to hold the old Master and ended the match three up and two, in the thirty-six hole finals. Last Sunday was cold and windy and with this breeze blowing much of the sand from the greens, play was rather difficult. But this didn't seem to bother the finalists for they both played "lousy" golf and Rueben was fortunate to have saved some good shots for the last lap of their title match and they proved profitable. This battle was all even at the twenty-eighth hole but Williams began to do things and sad to say he threw away three holes in a row. This proved costly for it gave Brooks an ample lead and he managed to protect it up to the final green. Richard Harris smothered his opponent, 5 and 4 to "collar" the second flight. The linksman receiving this drubbing was identified as Walter Booth. I think Booth did fairly well and some how he always manages to play exceptional golf in his matches. Perhaps the first sixteen will be the goal of many of those who failed to make the grade this year. Slim Carter was the gent to win the consolation of the first-flight, defeating Anthony Proctor 4 up and 3.

He declared that the same rules would prevail as prevail during his wrestling matches. Word from the Red Bank, N.

Shaking loose shortly before the close of the third period Hawkins carried the oval over the last white mark. Sessions scored the extra point. It was also Sessions who gave the Cardozoans their second touchdown of the fray. The extra point try failed on this occasion however.

Tech was held to five first downs, three of them by rushing. State completed 7 of 14 passes attempted, compared with two successful tosses out of 11 attempted aerials. In yards gained by rushing, State also led, 276 to 65. Throughout the whole of the play the crack colored ball-carrier was one of the principal figures.

Champs Minus Conrad, Wilson, Gibson, Unable to Count BALTIMORE, Md—The Morgan Bears clashed with the Union Panthers beneath the lights of Dugle Field, at Baltimore, on October 12 and battled through four quarters of the toughest football of their career, to end in a scoreless tie. A capacity crowd packed the stands to witness some of the most strategic displays of gridiron skill that Baltimore fans have seen in many moons The Panthers chalked up the first down of the game after Warfield covered a Morgan fumble on the Bears' 38-yard marker. Parker took the pigskin on the next play and ripped off tackle 12 yards for the first down. The Bears held the Panthers and took the ball on downs on the Morgan 25-yard line. Sturgis, on the following play, brought down 17 yards for a Morgan first down before he was stopped by Colburn on the Morgan 42-yard line. Simpson rang up 8 yards on a beautiful time reverse and Troupe following through with a 4-yard line buck for another Morgan first down. Sturgis again chalked up a first down by a 11-yard gain off tackle. Before the period ended Sturgis and Parker had rung up another first down for the Bears and Panthers respectively. When the final period ended with a scoreless tie the fans had witnessed some of Morgan's most effective offensive work by Sturgis, Troupe, Simpson and a newcomer, Lampkin, Chaney, Brown, Crawford and Drake were among the outstanding linesmen of the Morgan aggregation. Jones, Colburn, Winfree, and Parker were responsible for the Panthers' most effective offensive plays. The entire battle proved one of the toughest nip and tuck encounters from start to finish, offensive and defensive work that could be honed for. Union Pos. Morgan Warfield L.E. Brown Jenkins L.T.

'Kegee, Underdog, Makes Morris Brown Hustle ALUMNI BOWL, Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—Fighting with all that they could muster together a Morris Brown football aggregation held a powerful Tuskegee Institute football eleven to a scoreless tie in Tuskegee last Friday afternoon, when the Tuskegee outfit had been looked upon by noted critics as the underdogs, but proved to be the much better outfit in every department of the game. Morris Brown playing a defensive brand of football surprised the crowd with their poor defensive playing and inability to cope with strategy of the "House of Abbott." who clearly demonstrated that he is still the master of Southern football. Using every inch of strategy in his bag o' tricks, it was really the master thinking of the Tuskegee mentor that enabled his team to play the brand of football that swept a powerful Morris Brown eleven clean off their feet. Look Out! Those Charging Demons of the Morris Brown Wolverines Record of Graves, Ex-Wilberforce Coach, is Reviewed by Writer youngsters that Coach Billie Nicks of the team which for many years has been a threat in southern football, pins his hopes. Record of Graves Coach, is Review Former Michigan Aggie Sta Referred to by the Immort 'Force's Loss Cau By Tribune Correspondent As we glance at our sport page we notice that the mighty Wilberforce fell before the Kentucky State Eleven, Saturday, 15-0. This defeat ended a streak of victories that started in the middle of the 1930 football season. But let's look at the record accomplished by Harry C. Graves, who resigned at the close of last season after a ten-year stretch of coaching at the Ohio school. Graves was a former star football player for the Michigan Aggies who stopped the once unstoppable Notre Dame eleven back in 1915. It was Grantland Rice who recalled that the late Knute Rockne considered Graves his jinx. In an interview with the Notre Dame mentor, Rice was told that Graves made a blot on his clean record of two years in the game against Michigan Aggies in 1918. Beats Notre Dame Single-handed. In the last three minutes of the game, Graves, fullback of the Michigan aggregation passed from the 38-yard line to Jack Sweil on the three-yard line. Three line plunges failed. On the fourth down Graves carried the ball over, eluding even the mighty George Gipp who is probably the greatest backfield star in Notre Dame history. Since Graves assumed charge of the "Big Green Wave" football team, in 1924, his teams played 88 games, winning 67, tying 12 and losing 7. He has turned out teams that have been highly praised by fans and authorities. Used Warner System The remarkable record made by his teams was accomplished by the use of the Warner system. His team generally attempts to gain superiority of the attack by fleety deception and superb passing. Recall the Alabama State-Wilberforce game of 1931 where completion of 8 out of 9 passes netted 144 yards. This passing was eclipsed only by Notre Dame in 1924. Graves is supplanted by Coach "Country" Lewis, former Wilberforce athlete and one time coach of Alabama State. The last defeat suffered by a Graves-coached team was in the season of 1930, and since the dedication of the new athletic field at Wilberforce, a Big Green team has never been defeated or tied at home. Kipke Again Approached on Barring of Ward NEW YORK—Failure to receive a reply to its letter of September 20 to Coach Harry Kinke of the University of Michigan football team, has moved the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to again urge him not to yield to the reported demands of the authorities of Georgia Tech that Willis Ward, Michigan's star player, be barred from the October 20 game because of his color. Citing the records of DeHart Hubbard and Eddie Tolan in adding to the university's laurels in sports, the letter asserts that to bar Ward from the coming game would be a "stinging insult."

It was an inspired and improved Tuskegee eleven that took the field. They outfought and outlived the great Wolverine team throughout the entire game. Only once was Morris Brown in scoring position but their great array of backs lacked the necessary punch. Tuskegee carried the ball to Morris Brown's five-and ten-vard lines on four occasions but the great Wolverine team rallied and held for downs on two occasions and on the other two, incomplete passes over the goal line went for naught.

PREMIERE FOR GREEN SHOW NEW YORK, (ANP) — "Roll, Sweet Chariot," Paul Green's "symphonic play of the Negro People, had its premiere Tuesday night at the Cort Theatre, after being cast about for several years under various guises. The cast is composed of Negroes, headed by Frank Wilson and Rose McClendon. Mr. Green's purpose in the play is to show the disintegration of the old way of doing and living in the South. He employs the lengendary character. John Henry, to symbolize a sort of mechanical progress which brought destruction to the old way. The play is continuous no intermission, with music throughout. The acting was splendid throughout. L.

The picture is very frank in its treatment of its subject. "The Road to Ruin" deals with particularly with a pretty, blonde, high-school girl. The merry capers of this youngster with her boy friends in the early part of the story furnishes a contrast to the tragic experiences to follow. Helen Foster does exceedingly well as the leading figure in the story.

The story itself concerns a beautiful girl who deliberately breaks one man's heart to save a man to whom she is indebted from suffering. "Chained" is a great picture, sure to bring new laurels to the already famous team of Crawford and Gable. ::-Booker T.-:: The test of a woman's emotions is the theme behind Ann Harding's latest starring picture, "The Fountain." Once again, the Booker T.—"The House of Hits"—lives up to its name by presenting "The Fountain" which, will be shown for one week beginning Friday. Torn between two worthy lovers, Ann Harding essays the role of a girl intermed in Holland in company with a schooldy sweetheart, while her husband is at the front. When the husband returns, a disabled shell of his former self, love induced by pity clashed with her more spontaneous love to rend her heart unmercifully. Playing opposite Ann Harding is Brien Aherne, talented star of the English screen and Paul Lukas who plays the sympathetic role of the husband who returns to find the woman he adores estranged by an inevitable romance. With them on this occasion is their own road show, and according to reports reaching the office of Manager Shep Allen, the four Ohio lads have surrounded them selfs with a cast full of celebrities.

North 3000 ONE WEEK STARTING FRIDAY, OCT. 19 Untouched by the jealousy that conquers com-mon clay, the man who worshipped her gave her up to the man she loved! Ann HARDING in THE FOUNTAIN From Charles Morgan's celebrated novel with BRIAN AHERNE PAUL LUKAS JEAN HERSHOLT Directed by JOHN CROMWELL RKO-RADIO PICTURE The Younger Set MORRIS L. MURRAY Well here I am once more to give you the latest. I would like for all my readers to write in, telling me just how you like the column. Did you notice that I did a sweet piece of loafing last week? Well you help me by writing in and tell me if you read the Younger Set. Many Dunbar gals went to the dance up on the hill last Friday night and many of them were seen swinging tightly to the noose of a dead soldier (the ole gin container). That hop deserves a front page but due to the fact that I am just a high school chip, it will have to slide until further notice. Among some of our gals who attended the struggle were India Wallace with "Bennie" Brown, Henry Sparks and Yvonne Jones, Wyne King and "Kitty" Swann. Wonder where broder Berkley was? * * * Looks like Jonnie Ellis believes in age before beauty or is he strictly pimp timing? Was that somebody's ole lady you had "milling" up at the Masonic? They tell me these high school youngsters are going out for cash nowdays. "It." came from Roanoke too. * * * Mary Anderson the cute little chick up at Shaw, seems to be that way about Talmadge Brown, or is it that she just believes in good penmanship? Ketch on. Swell Trip Oh yea, says Buddie Ford and yours truly, as only the voice of experience can tell. We went out to a certain girl's joint in Kenilworth to have a little get together. Well we got together as soon as we go out there, to see how we were going to get back to dear old D.C. Anyway Margurite Pearson didn't show up and was Buddie's face red. Then things looked as if my style would be cramped, but I soon fixed that up. Buddie started to play cards while yours truly attended to unfinished business. So help me, it all ended to find me the main string of C. Penny. Or am I being tricked. I gave you mugs a break truthfully. I very seldom let you know just who me oole lady is, but I was forced to break down and confess. And to have a perfect ending we had to walk a mile to fetch the trolley. Well Carolyn Ramsey here's just what you have been waiting for. A write-up. Why you have been jumping up in me mug for the last week or so telling me not to write you up. Why go around flashing Charles Runner's class pin in everyone's map, you know after all a class pin doesn't stand for so much. Looks like Charles starts off my armband campaign. My boy, you are now one point ahead of another officer. Mae Arrington and Carolyn Ramsey are now leading the girls' race. Come on, girls, and join the struggle. * * * Alda Compton, who is taking a post grad at Dunbar, has made several fatal goo-goo eyes to a young man in her class. Will uncle object? * * * Seven Come Eleven Such words were flowing rapidly and loudly from the mouths of our young hone rollers. The game was in bloom when the hall snooper caught them in the act. They were jacked up and put out of school. You would be surprised to know how many crap games go on in such hot spots. Between the number writers and the crap shooters one has not time to get his education. Some guys spend their lunch money to put on what they call a hot figure. They never get hot though. Laverne Johnson seems to have an interest in Armstrong High now. Who is it? If you try the door and no one answers try the basement. There you will get quick results. A group of young men went to a club meeting and couldn't crash so they went around to a certain frail hop. They crashed and pitched a boogy-woogy. Almost the same bunch, except for a few modest gents, trooped around on S Street to enter a young lady's house. By the way they were riding in a car owned by one of our popular pastors. The little pigs on the inside would not let the big bad wolves into their secret hideout, so the bad wolves went in by way fo the basement. They reached the top door and found it locked so it was necessary to return to the street once more. No crash and no fight, whata story. * ** So Pauline Murray is that way about George S. only to give Harry Whitlock something to worry about. * ** Alberta Ridgely was seen in the Howard Theatre last Wednesday when the nick of time to see her to school. You aren't the only one who has tried that. I timed myself coming out Ninth Street so as to accidently bump into a little chick who lives on R Street but time proved that I never had a chance. And how. * ** It was rumored that "Stinkey" Davis bought a certain girl a pain of beats. Now wasn't that too cute. These modern boys will try anything once just to be near their ole ladies. This is being proven by T. O. who joints over to Dunbar to see a gal who is snagging Ola Pitts to rage. Poor kid. Say youse mugs did you know that the little Fifi (Howard Theatre heel swinger and popular chorine) once lived right here among our midst. Chalk up one for the kid. Our Dunbar boys and girls are losing their school spirit, or did they have one? Many of Dunbar's girls and boys were seen at dances given by other schools when they won't buy athletic cards to help their own school. Come on kids and let's make the crimson and black fly high. Will see you in the stadium at the next game. Chols Seys Dear Spot Lewis, won't you please tell us who that heavy broad was that you were holding up Eleventh and U Streets with? Is it a new one? And now, Dear Reader, we have found Earl Douglass at last. He was seen at Fourth and W Streets, Northwest, in the corner grocery buying a can of dog meat. He told the man that the last can of dog meat that he bought made him sick. **** Treading on Spike Bland's feet, but you cannot blame me, Son, cause she sure can make good pound cake and I sure can eat it. Nuf sed **** Special Notice to the dear boys who stuck up James Coates. Take this tip and don't wait to go to Heaven before you get wings. Get 'em now brothers, and be sure and use them—and when you see them light on housetops, don't light on the ground. **** Dear Mr. Chols, what was it that Leon (Rat) Payne and Brick Beckley saw when they peeped through the keyhole?—Signed, The Gang. Dear Gang, the two Storm-and Strifes read this column so if you will send Chols your name and address he will tell you. **** For information in regard to the Murray Casino call Chols at Pot. 1667 between the hours of five and eight. *** Earl Bryant, manager of the Washington Aristocrat, thinks he is cute. Why? His girl told him so. (Just fun, Earl.) **** J. W. Bryant, the loud speaker of Twelfth Street, can be heard daily broadcasting Bulll (Give your friends a break.) **** Mrs. Louise Mitchell brings sunshine to all of her friends by her smiles. Very nice little lady. Keep it up. **** Edward Hansborough looked very neat in his tuxedo on last evening at the Atlantic Winter Gardens. Child, he is dee floor walker. Well! **** Miss Jewel Jennifer has the harmony of the old masters. Her piano playing is wonderful. Mr. Harris, manager of the Harlem Valet Shop, knows this one thing, without the almighty dollar—there is no doing power. * * * * * Miss Mabel White still has that sweet golden voice. * * * * * Edwin Slaughter assistant manager of the Washington Aristrocrats, is called sleepy by his classmates. It only happens when he is to be called on. (Nuff sed!) * * * * * Misses E. Harris and Mittle Harris are very good looking. A certain young man looks them over and then asks for a glass of water. * * * * * Charles Tyler thinks he drives a fire truck. Cats and dogs look alike to him. My, whata man! Miss Dickerson, please tell your fellow students, who really is the boy friend. * * * * Mr. Tyler, "the come on Jack Man," eats up his profits, that's why poor Jack lives off hats and old shoes. * * * * B. E. Mitchell had his car parked in the center of Twelfth Street the other day. A certain gentleman asked him to move the same to the curb. Without a word it was done. The formal dance of the Washington Aristocratats will be held at the Murray Casino sometime during December or January. Their private party will be held Thursday, October 25, at 1507 U Street, N.W. Louis N. Brown's Orchestra will furnish the music for this affair as well as for the formal dance. When John Mundry, secretary of the Washington Aristocratats falls in love, he cries. The big six of a certain refined church of this city, is no longer in power. They have ants in their pants. (Mellow ??) live and learn By JOSEPH C. OVERTON HOPFORD R.

Barn Dance Turns Were you present at the initial Student Council hon? Well so help us it was mellow. (The music was jumping the floor was smooth and almost every one present was soaked in booze.) There has been many a Student Council dance, but there is a consensus of opinion, that, never before has there been a mob so thoroughly soused as the one at this barn struggle. When the affair started the dining hall was a melody of color and neatly decorated with corn stalks and pumpkin, the music was low, and the crowd was gay but dignified. While at twelve o'clock amid the clatter of irresponsible dancers and above the smashing of pumkins and corn was heard the blasting of the orchestra and the affair resembled a block and tackle practice more than a dance. Well everyone had a good time and we have at last found what type of amusement pleases most of the student body. Almost a Tragedy The only nearly serious affair was the impending brawl between Cotton Wallace and Addison Rand. It seems that Cotton while in a rather dubious condition playfully interfered with Addison while the latter was dancing. Addison who was feeling as good as Cotton resented this playful action. So the stuff was on. After a heated ar- Sketch Book chick) Webb hold true in our eagerness and anxiety to accept new-fangled religious leaders who promise us that if we follow "their" we shall all go to a heaven where chicken and honey abound in both quality and quantity... usually the chicken and honey idea "gets us"...

Sees All Knows All Tells All IECE gument the boys withdrew from the dance to settle things with fisticuiffs, but a bevy of well soused friends after much pulling and pushing led a subdued Cotton and Addison back to the dance. Is This Ready? After the barn dance a party of students journeyed to find some new after dance entertainment, John Pinkett finally led the party to the quiet seclusion of a southwest chitterling house. The boys say that the new house, "Effes" serves the best chillings in town. If you like some of Effes' chillings ask Flaxie, Margo, Carrol Harris, Ada Fisher, Louise Fisher, Charlotte Ridgley, Lucas Howard, John Pinkett, Freeman Murray Perry Howard, Cotton Wallace, or Frank Reeves, they may able to give you the address. After I heard that Buddie Cowan took Marianna Beck to the show, Monday, I wonder why she came to the dance alone? Was it because he carried Doris Carter? *** We wonder if the old sora-pledge jive will continue this year. Carol Harris we saw you with Billy Brooks a long time at the "Rush." Is it just friendship?** Juanita Jones was seen riding with Eddie Evans. Oh well, this is one romance that we can't get straight. ****Lam Reid is jiving Ethel Brown a Minne Teachers' girl Still at the Howard After the chorus at the Howard Theatre left thursday the boys have stuck to the hill, that is most of the boys because I heard that Willie Wynne took Lyle Smith, a Howard co-ed, to the barn dance and then to the frat house. Believe it or not she calls him "Winifred." Cute hu!**** Jimmy, Carrie took Gwendoline Barrett to the Howard, they had lunch at the Grill and then home in a taxi. And they tell me prosperity is not back**** I can not imagine Arthur Pone living Camille Ford a Miner student, but it's true.**** I noticed that Junior Uckerd sprawled out on the floor at the barn dance. I guess he slipped.**** Jean Perry has added Bobby Scourclot to her collection. ```markdown ``` It couldn't have been that lover Billy Syphax with Eudora Williams, at the dance, after bringing the charming Miss Sawyer. * * * Tommy was ready so Betty (co-ed) Wallace enjoyed the company of Auzene. * * * Why does Fred Aden go with Dot, Smith? Is it love or obligation? * * * I saw the younger Johnson brother bring little Bee Blackburn in the grill. Now Pete what will Evelyn say? * * * What has happened to the budding romance of Clarence Lewis since Rose Butcher and Bert Lewis are that way again? * * I see that Marshall Murray and Ires Green are together again. Does she know about your trips to Baltimore every Sunday, Marshall? * * * Madeline Murray was escorted to the Friday night shindig by the two-fisted Addison Rand, Dennett Harrod it seems as though you high school lads always lose your girls when they go to Howard. * * * There were many couples who found the dance too warm so they retired to the quiet repose of parked cars to cool themselves. Among those who enjoyed the beautiful view of the reservoir were, Ada and Lucas, Flaxie and Jessie, Helen and Klotz, Carol and Cotton. So, dear friends and readers, ends this weeks review of pleasant happenings and although the Black X noticed that the back steps of the dining hall received the overflowing patronage of Howard's love amitten students. I was very surprised to learn that there are still a few people on the hill that I do not know; but I pro- mise you that at the next dances this very popular stare work will be revealed. Labor is battling for a thirty-hour week. It may be a long fight. Labor was never one to weaken. Sooner or later it will win out. The thirty hour week will come and with it more leisure and more time to spend your earnings. BEAUTY HINT By NINA TEMPLE STICK TO 'ONE PERFUME The woman of taste selects one odor of perfume and then sticks to that. She can always be identified by it until it becomes a part of her personality. A handkerchief of hers is seldom really lost because the odor it bears is well known. Those who know her always recall her when ever they smell her particular perfume. --- Blanch Calloway is Graduate of Douglass High and Morgan YOUR STAR and YOU By ABBE' WALLACE Youngest Mentalist on the American Stage NOTE: Your question answered in this paper—ONLY when a clipping of this column is enclosed in your letter.

Local Dances By Joseph Beal Our first stop brings us to the dance given by the B. M. Usherettes at 1623 C Street Southeast. Such pleasing feminine personalities as the Misses Adelaid and Thelma Hawkins, Vera Colman Pearl Wood, Etta Mae Walls, Thelma Watts and others were there. The gentleman were Messra Amrose Harly, Willie Rogers Phillip Daniels, James Monroe, and a few others were present. It's the same old case of more girls than boys. ... This is old news, but I am going to tell you for the sake of the people behind time. You are about to know that Mr. Webb and Miss Chin tied the knot a few weeks ago. Congratulations Webb its up to you to make good and live happily ever after. As time goes on we find Samuel Brown enjoying his 24th birthday with his girl friend. We hear an orchestra playing the "Indian Love Call". The party is forgotten. The air grows tense as he looked into her eyes, and during that one romantic moment filled with ecstasy he is overcome with an isisistible impulse to whisper sweet nothings in her little ears. Goe! but love is great. (sniff) (sniff) Our next stop drops us off at the Masquerade Ball given by the Chinatown sports. The first thing we notice on entering is the Chinese surroundings. Another thing that looks pretty is the members of the club all in Chinese costumes. This is something different from the ordinary house hop and I'm sorry we have to go, but we have another stop to make this evening. Oh! I must remind you everybody had a mask on, and that stops the Who's Who. I'm sorry we left the other party, but I thought Alice Thomas was going to have a jumping time at her dance but what do we find? Children ranging within the ages of 12 to 16 and a limited time to dance. Why that's old fashion. There are a very few dances that have limited time now. Come on, let's "chalk our broom". Since the column did not appear last week we will have to find some way of going back into the past. I've got it. Let's visit a medium. YOUR ST and YO By ABBE' WALK Youngest Mentalist on the Am S. F.—When should I ask M. E. to meet me? Will anyone find out? Ans.: Make it as soon as possible and explain in detail. Do not meet at the regular place as you have been seen. If you wish further details, send a quarter for a private reply a.i. astrology reading. K. M.—Will my brother accept the proposition that I have to offer, and if so when should I speak to him about it? Ans: Your brother is able to finance you money for your school term this year and he knows that you will make the best of it. It may make you feel more like taking the money if you would let him take some of your jewelry as collateral. It is not wise to take it off to school with you any way. L. C. B.—What in the world is the matter with my daughter? Is it something serious? Ans.: You bet it is serious. Take her into your room tonight and have a good talk with her and you will find that she is holding something back that she is ashamed to tell you. Don't be too hard on her as she is young and all young people make mistakes. G. W.—Is my husband doing his best for our family? Ans.: He is, but the best is not enough when you have so many to look to for support. It will not be long before the older children will be able to get out and help a little and until then I am afraid you will have to try and make ends meet with what he makes. J. J: S.—Tell me some way to commercialize on the tract of woodland. Ans.: I am sorry but I do not see you commercializing on the tract of land that belongs to your FATHER and your AUNT. The land will eventually be divided and sold and they both will share alike but that will be as far as it will go. A. H. F.—Will I marry the young man I have so utterly debased myself with?

The whole country marveled the singing and hollowing of Calloway, but little did they realize that another member of family was going to hit the lights soon. Slowly but grade it came. The house of Callow introduced at this time the woman orchestra Leader, Blas Calloway. Starting three years ago an entertainer in the night club Baltimore. Blanche became a Later she joined her father brother Cab, and traveled with awhile. Blanche formed an orchestra of her own and hit the same as her brother had d Stardom "The Queen of Syncagation," as Blanche is called, has made a big hit in every house in which she has played. Featuring that hi-dho type of music that was introduced by her brother, Blanche has stood out as the only woman band leader on the American stage. Wrote Songs Her latest son is "Ketch On". featured at the Howard Theatre this week by her. Miss Callaway's next song will be "Missisanna Liza." The band will play next at the Lincoln Theatre in Philadelphia, then to Chicago for a one week stand. I asked Miss Callowav. "How she was treated while making tour of the South " and she replied, "The folks down there seem to like Cab and mvsclf, and they treated me like a queen." Blanche is a graduate of Douglass High School and Morgan College, of Baltimore. Her hobby is wearing fine clothes and playing pinnock. During the summer Blanche lives at her home in Philadelphia with her mother. She owns a new Cadillac car and uses it as a means of travel. Miss Calloway has a blessing personality and is very fond of girls and boys. Bon voyage to Blanche and may she keep the name of Calloway in the lime-light a long time. Here we are. As we sit around the table with hands clasped together the lights go out and these are the pictures we see. The dance at the Don "A" Club, the argument, the big shooting affair, the arrival of the police the chasing of the people, stealing the keys out of the scout car, the return of the police, and last of all we see the gops loaded for a telephone booth to "Call Carl". Now isn't that awful? TAR YOU PLACE American Stage Ans.: Due to the fact that you have shown this particular man just how important a FIXTURE, he is in your life he will continue to go with you but I don't believe that he is really in love with you. He is going with you because you have made a pal out of him but not a true lover. S. D.—Have I a tumor? Ans.: No, not a tumor. But you will have a STORK flying over your house in a few months so you had better begin laying away the baby clothes for they will be needed. Congratulations. A. S.—Would it pay me to bring this case up in court? Ans.: I don't think so since you lost it in court once, I think it unwise to carry it to a HIGHER COURT. The evidence seems to be pinned against you winning this case and it would obit be a waste of money to try to bring it up again. X. X.—My brother died and left some property and did not make a will. Will I be able to get some of this property? Ans.: Your brother's property will go to his WIDOW. It is only right that she get it as long as she lives and then has the right to will it to anyone that she sees fit. I don't see you getting any of this property. M. T.—Is there any truth in the advertisement that I read and would it benefit me try it? Ans.: Since you are not in a position to leave home I believe that the mail course you read allows would help you. It would do no harm for you to try it for it may not you a little cash. After all it will be educational to you and you have nothing to lose. C. B.—What was my girl friend's reason for her actions? Ans.: She did not think that she was gaining anything by pretending to carr for you and she considered it the honest thing to do—to QUIT. Look around for another girl as it won't be any trouble for you to get one.

Special. 59c MOTORCYCLE TWO WIFE SEEKS SEPARATION FROM AMOS Charging, among other things, that her husband was guilty of attacking the character of her 17-year-old daughter, Mrs. Virginia Amos, 1515 S Street, Northwest, filed suit for limited divorce and maintenance against Ernest R. Amos, a teacher in the Armstrong High School, early this week. With her allegations of cruelty, abuse had non-support, Mrs. Amos created no little stir in local circles, in which the Amos's have been prominent figures for many years. Even some of the most intimate friends of Mr. Amos had no knowledge of the impending rift. Eight years of marital bliss followed her marriage in Alexandraia, Va., on February 23, 1910, judging from the language of the plaintiff's petition. The first of her complaints dates back to 1918 when Mr. Amos first started drinking according to her declaration. Struck Her Since that time, Mrs. Amos avers, her husband has drunk to access on numerous occasions. It was during one of these drinking spells that Mrs. Amos declares her husband first struck her. This happened in the spring of 1924 and resulted in the first separation, she leaving with her children, two boys and a girl, aged 23, 21 and 17 respectively. After 6 weeks with her mother, Mrs. Amos states, she returned to her husband on his promise to behave himself. The drinking and general bad conduct of the defendant, however, showed no appreciable change, the bill further alleges. The bill went on to assert that the plaintiff left her husband on two other occasions prior to October 1931 each time returning on his renewed promise to be good. These separations were for periods of 3 weeks each. The final separation took place shortly after the re-opening of school in the fall of 1931. Mr. Amos at that time, the bill asserts, "used vile epithets implying un-chaity and low character" not only in herself but in their minor daughter as well. Mr. Amos is a teacher of music receiving a salary of $2720. less 5 per cent, per year. During the past summer he worked as a waiter at the Columbia Country Club.

Alleged Tire Thief Acquitted by Jury Wallace Leggins, 155 Hanover Street, Northwest, was acquitted by a jury, Wednesday, on a charge of embezzlement by Mrs. Sarah Rosenfield, owner of a second-hand tire shop at Sixth and K Streets, before Judge Gus A. Schuldt, in the jury branch of Police Court. Attorney Otto Branson represented Leggins. The history of the story dates back to June 3 and July 22 when Leggins while working for Mrs. Rosenfeld sold tires to John Ellison and James Robinson and allegedly stole the money. Mrs. Rosenfeld testified that Leggins failed to turn the money received for the sale of the tires to her and he quit his job July 23 to work for her brother at Tenth and Rhode Island Avenue, Northwest. The shortage was dis covered when Robinson returned the day following the purchase of two tires claiming that the tires were no good and Mrs. Rosenfeld could not account for the money received for the purchase. In her testimony she also stated that the total amounted to $7. College Alumnae Club Prepares Year's Work A called meeting of the College Alumnae Club was held at the Y.M.C.A.

WEEK ENDING OCTOBER 23, 1934 HARRIS OUSTED FROM ELIGIBLE LAWYER LIST The United States Supreme Court, early this week, handed down a decision granting the request of the grievance committee of the District Bar Association disbarring Mortimer-M. Harris and a white attorney from further practice. An order directing a removal of their names from the list of eligible lawyers was acted upon by the full court. Harris was dropped following his conviction on embezzlement charges which grew out of the alleged theft of a small amount of money from one of his clients. The grievance committee instituted proceedings against Harris after he had been sentenced to 18 months. The white lawyer, T. Morris Wampler, was quisted following his conviction on charges involving income tax evasions.

PASTOR CLAIMS (Continued from page 1) church accepted the resignation on terms of what the pastor described as "an agreeable conclusion on both sides" and paid the minister three months salary in advance with a deduction of his alleged debt to the church. The amount of the debt could not be learned. Although he refused to admit it, it is understood that the pastor's salary was $125 a month. Discussing the matter the Rev. Mr. Tyre declared that the resignation was the result of "general dissatisfaction on the part of a disgruntled group of church members which, unfortunately, constituted the officials of the church board, with whom I had to come in direct contact." He declared that he withdrew because of this group. Members Mum William George, deacon of the church 329 M Street, Southwest, who presided at the meeting Friday night, refused to discuss the matter with a Tribune reporter stating that he didn't have any authority to give out any information. Likewise, three other officers of the church refused to discuss the matter declaring that the matter was a closed incident inasmuch as the Rev. Mr. Tyre was out as pastor of the church. The Rev. Mr. Tyre had been in charge of the Rehoboth pastorate since June, 1932, when he took over the duties following the death of the succeeding pastor the Rev. Elijah Coleman. He came to Washington from Norfolk, Va., where he pastored the Rethlehem Baptist Church He is the third pastor of the Rehoboth Baptist Church and the the preceding pastor, the Rev. John Richards, now pastor emeritus of the Second Baptist Church, an outgrowth of the Rehoboth Church, was the first pastor and one of the founders. He was ousted about eight years ago. Already the Rev. Mr. Tyre has taken over another church, and is now fully in charge of the Mount Shiloh Baptist Mission, Second and F Streets, Southwest, where he preached Sunday. At present, he is conducting a revival at the mission with the Rev. James L. Garfield in charge. CALL ★ WHEN GRIEF COMES THOMAS FRAZIER AND COMPANY 389 R. I. AVE. 723TST.N.W.

Worker Wins Back Job and Compensation for Time Arthur Cloud, 636 G Street, Southwest, was awarded compensation for lost of time and hospital expenses following an accident in which he was injured last February while employed by Nathan Shapio at the old Merchants Bank Building, Sixth Street and Pennsylvania Avenue. Cloud was porter at the building and was hurt when he fell down a flight of steps while carrying a barrel. He was confined to his home for some time and last June he was operated on at Gallinger Hospital. When he returned to work he found that this job had been given to another man. Following a hearing before Commissioner Hoage this week Cloud was ordered re-employed and was given compensation for the time he lost. He was represented by Attorney J. Flipper Derricotte, ELKS TO FIGHT FISHER SELECTION ELKS TO FIGHT FISHER SELECTION (Continued from page 1) October 11. He stated that the selection of the chairman for the general committee was left to the discretion of the grand exalted ruler by constitutional right. He declared further that the various Elk lodges and temples in the city were empowered to name their own delegations and chairman, but that all of these would be under the supervision of the general chairman. Dr. Fisher said that Columbia Lodge had named Mr. Jones as chairman of its committee and that Morning Star Lodge had named John R. Rhines, also a past exalted ruler, as its committee chairman. He stated he had received no word from either Columbia Temple nor Forrest Temple, the two women's organizations. Although this explanation is acceptable to disinterested parties, it is generally rumored that either one or both of the local lodges will "go to bat" with the grand exalted ruler before time for the opening of the 1935 convention.

Attorney William L. Houston, representing Mrs. Sheffield, met with a denial of the fraud charges this assertion by young Sheffield leveled at his client. He immediately countered with the statement that if any fraudulence was being practiced it was being practiced by the man. Earlier Marriage Denied The absence of a certificate proving a previous marriage of the deceased, moved Mr. Houston to aver that since there had been no prior marriage of Mr. Sheffield there could be no letimate claim to parentage by any who sought to name him as their "father." The Tribune investigation resulted in the obtaining of information from several Texas cities where relatives and friends of the former barb-shop propriator and business man still live. All refuse to verify the report that Mr. Sheffield had been married before he was wedded to Mrs. Viola Sheffield in this city in 1931. Letter Support Widow A letter from San Antonio, Texas, the writer of which requests that her name be withheld states "I don't know anything about this woman and the supposed son although I have known Simon W. Sheffield for many, many years." Mrs. A. O. Lofton, a sister of Mr. Sheffield, writes from her Dale, Texas home, "I knew my brother from the date of his birth up to the time of his marriage to Viola, and I am positive he was never married before that time." Two brothers of Mr. Sheffield were also contacted. Both, Clem.

RIOTING AVERTED AFTER SLAYING RIOTING AVERTED AFTER SLAYING (Continued from page 1) past year, Colored police officers attached to the precinct verified this report when questioned by Tribune newsmen. For fully two hours after. Aed had been taken in a custody amu- renitive to the police station, col- ored crowds were seen loitering in the vicinity of the store talking in threatening terms. Among most of these Aed was found to be unpopular, and as a precautionary measure, two uniformed patrolmen were kept on duty until well after midnight. The absence of the principal and the presence of a few level headed citizens served to alleviate any racial demonstration. Shortly after the youthful victim had fallen to the floor the Emergency Hospital ambulance was summoned. Dr. J. M. Becker, physician in charge, pronounced Green dead upon his arrival at the scene. The lad was buried Wednesday, a corps of high school cadets accompanying the body to the cemetery. RAZOR TOTER GETS 6 MONTHS A sentence of six months was imposed on Robert Sterling, by Judge Gus A.

WEEK ENDING OCTOBER 20, 1934 Dearth of Housemaids A number of white families here are lamenting the dearth of housemaids and some have complained to the Emergency Relief Bureau and other charitable organizations asking that persons on relief who refuse jobs should not get relief. One Carl C. Lipp writing in a local afternoon paper states that he was unable to get a maid at $30 per month. He also stated that he offered the extra inducement of board and the maid could stay nights. There was no rush for his offer which still stands. Every person who is acquainted with jobs of general housework and the "extra" stay nights requirement knows that such a job is nothing short of slavery as the maid is required not only to work from 12 to 15 hours, but stay up at night to prepare extra aftertheatre suppers for her employers. Every woman knows what general housework means. It means everything from cooking, washing and ironing to caring for the furnace and washing the family car. For such a job $30 a month is hardly commensurate with the hand grinding work and long hours expected at these "stay night" homes. If families would offer maids decent wages and reasonable hours they would not only get better service, but better employees. Relief Problem Serious A check-up of persons on relief here during the week discloses the fact that there were a total of 17,080 colored families receiving aid from the government in September of this year and 5,842 white families. Assuming that the average family consists of three persons, the number of colored on relief was 51,240 compared with 17,526 whites. A further comparison of relief figures for September of last year shows that 10,538 colored families and 3,313 white families were on relief. The figures reveal that despite the fact that large numbers of colored are receiving aid from the government, the increase by both races during a period of 12 months was about the same. A study of the figures for last month also shows that there were 416 colored persons on white collar jobs and 633 whites doing similar work. The greatest number of families on relief are in the thickly populated northwest section. The Banneker Relief Center handled 3,163 family cases last month while the southeast center cared for 1,717 families. There are a total of 13,000 persons on work relief in the District, of which number 11,000 were colored. These people are employed at skilled and unskilled labor. With winter just in the offing a serious problem faces the city when the added handicap of cold weather is to be contended with. New Negro Alliance Despite the fact that there are those who disagree with the policy of peaceful picketing as has been adopted by the New Negro Alliance, the record shows that 56 Negroes received employment in establishments where they were never before employed as a result of the method used by the Alliance. These figures were announced at the recent first anniversary of the Alliance The figures were announced at the recent first anniversary of the Alliance. This organization founded by young men who had no desire for personal gain, has been the means of opening new avenues for Negroes to earn a living in the District. The largest number, 31, were employed as clerks in local chain stores. Others were hired in other stores in Negro neighborhoods as clerks. If the Alliance has done no more than to bring to the attention of big business establishments here that Negroes can work in other than menial capacities and white clerks do not object to working with colored men who are skilled in meeting and supplying the wants of customers, the work of the Alliance is well worth while. This daily contact of the working classes of both races on an equal footing will do more to bring about goodwill and tolerance among the races than any other factor. After all it is the white man of the working class and the Negro on the same level that will solve the so-called problem of the races in America and Washington is the logical city in which to bring this about. Some Negro democrats are real sorry. The time has come for testing those who claim or pretend to claim leadership by trying them by the yardstick of results. Segregation has curved us with low standards. Forced to live a life largely shut off from intimate contacts with those who dominate civilization, our compact mass falls back on itself and certain mass reactions. Familiarity finds satisfaction in old ways and common idioms. Education in new ways becomes superficial and difficult. Unfamiliar with social and business manners, we become diffident and lack the urge to advance. Children repeat the life and way of adults, and youth follows the pattern of decades that have past. A technique must be adopted to move us forward consciously and satisfactorily. Mere blasts against suppression or showy pretense of advancement will not meet the test; have not met tests imposed, and can not. Two movements have marked our progress since the days of slavery; we have moved horizontally from places of oppression to places promising more personal freedom. We escaped North from slavery and we have moved North and West in search of other incidents of liberty. To satisfy ourselves that we belonged to some group other than the racial stratum in which we found ourselves, we have joined clubs, societies and organizations. Here, from church to dance club we have sought personal distinction and honors in vain efforts to escape vertically from our condition. Recently we have come to try to achieve aristocratic superiority to the mass of our people through education with its distinctions and degrees. The result has been to widen the gulf between the lettered minority at one end and the illiterate mass with its suspicions and lack of respect at the other. We snub the man or woman who bridges the gap, and treat them as renegades—hence the racial group shows no marked progress. Political and business methods aside, because they call for special techniques and must develop their leaders suigeneris, there is one sure method of bringing the mass out of its low estate, and that through culture contacts. Dr. Locke pointed to some valuable material and distinctive instances in his "New Negro." Dr. Woodson is busily gathering matter that shall be of even greater but slower widespread force, but our children may get through the activity of a small group of our far-seeing women, the most impressive spur to that kind of cultural advancement vital to progress to any people. The Children's Theatre movement which is to bring our boys and girls into intimate contact with cultured players of those phases of the life of civilized man that makes their impress upon the plastic mind, have brought the dodge to the curse of civilization. What the Greek myths did to lay the basis for Grecian culture, and Lamb's Tales From Shakespeare did for the English with Hawthorn's Wonder Tales for Americans who had to imbibe world culture, this series of plays to be presented here by The Children's Theatre players, will do for our children. Thus, and thus only may be begin to lay the curse that segregation has laid upon us through low standards. Culture contacts are the leaven to lift us out of oppression psychosis.

Southwest Plans to Make Yearly Celebration an Annual Affair To the Editor: On behalf of my committee and myself I wish to thank you for the splendid support which was given us by your newspaper in connection with the Fourth Street Rededication exercises and celebration held recently. We feel that the many thousands of people who witnessed this demonstration came to our community as a result of the invaluable publicity so generously furnished us by the press. You may be interested to know that this committee intends to continue its activities and is now making plans for a similar celebration next year. More important than this, however, is the fact that the four organizations who sponsored this affair are contemplating the use of this body as a coordinating unit for the betterment and development of business and living conditions in Southwest. We feel confident that your paper will support us in the requests for improvement which will shortly be submitted to our Commissioners for consideration. We are deeply appreciative for the fine assistance you have given us in the past, and you may be assured that the people of Southwest fully recognize the important position held by the Washington Tribune in molding public and official opinion in our city. Thanking you again for the consideration you have given us, I wish to remain. That the Crisis would carry on in spite of any trouble or difficulty within or without was the hope, and was the prediction of the Leader — that is what it is doing, and is what it will continue to do if the Negroes whose cause it advocates will give to it the support such a periodical as the October Crisis merits and should compel. advocates will give to it the support a periodical as the October Crisis merits and should compel. Kelly Miller Asks Is the South In the Saddle The South being so long in the helpless minority has acquired the inferiority complex in national matters and defers to the North for leadership and direction in all great national projects and programs. It has been taken for granted, especially by the Negro race, that when the Democratic Party gains the national ascendency, the South would inevitably be in the saddle. This conviction is based partly on fear and partly on a misapprehension of fact. The South hitherto has constituted a solid political blooc held together by a fixed and passionate attitude concerning the Negro's place in the political scheme. Any cohesive minority with dogged purpose and determined policy can always exercise inordinate influence upon the general equation. A well organized college fraternity can dominate the life of the whole institution although their relative numbers may be negligible. The South generally retains representatives in Congress indefinitely, while the North shifts its delegation with each election. This gives the South the tremendous advantage of seniority which counts for so much in heading up the committees which shape legislation. By common consent, the nation has agreed to let the South handle the Negro problem according to its own formula, regardless of which party may be in control of the Federal government. The 14th and 15th amendments are nullified, jim-crow cars rumble through the Southland, separate schools operate, disfranchisement runs rampant whether Wilson or Tart, Hoover or Roosevelt resides in the White House. So far then as the Southern Negro is concerned the South is indeed in the saddle whichever party may be in power. Such indisputably being the case, the Negro had best make the best terms he can with the powers with whom he has to deal who determine and control the general trend and tenor of his life. Agree with thine adversary quickly while thou art in the way with him. He can no longer rely upon outside compulsion. THE SOUTH DOES NOT AND CAN NOT DOMINATE OUR NATIONAL LIFE But in a broader and more comprehensive sense the South is not and cannot dominate the national life nor set the general policies by which it is to be guided. There are only 17 so-called Southern states which have anything like political cohesions. Delaware Maryland, West Virginia and Missouri split off from the solid bloc during the Civil War and have shown separative tendencies ever since. They do not have separate cars. Maryland has separate intra-state but not inter-state passengers. There is no disfranchisement, they oscile between the Democratic and Republican Parties. This leaves an unplittable bloc of only thirteen out of forty-eight and these are by no means the most populous or powerful. If every representative in both houses of Congress from the South belonged to the Democratic Party that section would be in the hopeless minority in both houses. The South can project or promote no national policy of broad significance unless augmented by large Northern reenforcement. Furthermore the South, being so long in the helpless minority has acquired the inferiority complex in national matters and defends to the North for leadership and direction in all great national projects and programs. We have had seventeen years of Democratic national control since reconstruction, under three different administrations. In every instance the Northern contingency of the Democratic Party has dominated the general equation. At the present time, the Democratic Party controls the administration and both houses of Congress by an unprecedented majority, and yet the Southern contingency constitutes the minority not only of both branches of Congress but of the Democratic Party itself. ADMINISTRATION HAS MORE NORTHERN THAN SOUTHERN DEMOCRATS AT WASHINGTON There are more Northern than there are Southern Democrats in both House and Senate. There are five Republican Senators from Southern states, leaving that section only 27 out of 96 members of the upper House of Congress, constituting a minority of the majority party. There is no indication that the South dominates the government under Roosevelt's administration. He recruits his official staff from the most competent sources regardless of the section from which they hail, giving of course due regard to regional distribution and party claims. Of the nine members of his cabinet three are from the South, no one of whom is noted for his bitter racial attitude The Southern sentiment exploited and exploded by Tilman, Vardamann, Tom Watson, Heflin, and Blease finds no expression under Roosevelt's administration. Indeed the Roosevelt following is baptized in the spirit of the New Deal, in which there is no room for race color or creed. I have too much good sense and common candor to assert that the Negro does not suffer discrimination and inequity under Roosevelt and the New Deal. He must ever be on the alert to fight such discrimination wherever it raises its hideous head. But this is the outgrowth of race prejudice which runs deeper than partizan alignment. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has to fight as hard under Harding, Coolidge and Hoover as under Roosevelt and with no greater encouragement from those in high places. Yes the South is firmly seated in the saddle, so far as the local welfare of Southern Negroes is concerned and there is no means in sigh of unhorsing it; but for the wider and broader welfare of the race as a whole the American people are in the saddle, to whom our final appeal must be made. SONNET Now that the moonlight withers from the sky Like hope within my heart, what's left to do But dream alone until the day I die With some imagined memory of you? Believe there was a day for for a space I looked into your unverted eyes To feel my spirit awake at their embrace Articulate and beautiful and wise; Or dream I hear your voice in the dim pause Of dawn, ere birds awake, and feel your hand Seek mine, when some night-fancy overawes Your drowsy thoughts, knowing I understand: Better to falsify you thus and rest Than know you are careless. than know myself forever, impatient EDWARD DAVISON. God's promises, being conditional are seldom ever filled to the satisfaction of some people. THE WASHINGTON TONIGHT EDITION Dodging the Curse of Segregation By CHARLES M. THOMAS Methods Already Tried What May Be Done Our Readers' Opinions HARRY S. WENDER. Chairman Fourth Street Rededication Committee Other Papers Say Other Papers Say From Louisville (Ky.) Leader We say new, because the Crisis for October does look like new. New style, new mechanism, new force new thought. We congratulate the publishers and the mechanics who did work on the October Crisis, and we commend Roy Wilkins, the acting editor, for his style his thought, his punch. The editors in the October Crisis are of the highest order; they were written by an intelligent young man whose training and experience as a newspaper man before coming to the Crisis well prepared him for the task which is temporarily his and which should become permanent. A new deal is still the slogan—let's give it to the new Crisis. Don't believe everything you hear about others, nor all you think about yourself. A New Era in the Hotel Business BY WILLIAM W. SIMPSON In the last quarter century we have watched with trepidation the passing of the old fashioned "Me too, boss" with hat-in-hand type of colored headwaiter, and with him colored waiters have been swept ruthlessly out of about 99 per cent of the hotels of America. Italians, Greeks, Russians Irishmen, Englishmen, Scandinavians and what-not have come from Europe to take the places that were created by our SWEAT AND BLOOD. Being without the support of an organization such as the American Federation of Labor-we were forced to depend upon the merces of the Hotel Managers' Association, many of them directly or indirectly affiliated with the American Federation of Labor Now comes the National Recovery Act, with its double-barrelled codes. Under the N.R.A. Codes, white waiters get from $60.00 to $80.00 per month, one day off per week, pay for no breakage, and an eight hour day. Code for colored: Most places, waiters work for tips; where they do receive, say, $7.00 per week, for from twelve to sixteen hours a day, the manager deducts $3.00 for meals so much for breakage, uniforms, rooms, etc., until the results are the salary practically reaches the vanishing point before pay day rolls around. A colored waiter can be fired by a dishwasher in the kitchen; on up to the guests, but not so with the white waiters who work under contract. P. D. EUDALEY Many speak of Joseph McClain, Julius Rosenwald Almost a fourth of a century has elapsed since that historic day in Chicago, when a great American citizen, in humble appreciation for the blessings that God and man had bestowed upon him and upon his own, decided to dedicate himself toward lending a helping hand to an oppressed and downtrodden race. The man was the late Julius Rosenwald; the race he sought to help was the colored race; and, unlike the many who are content in spending a quiet birthday at home, or making merry on the byways of life, Julius Rosenwald commemorated his half centenary by making plans on how to improve the destiny of the black man. Julius Rosenwald is not remembered by civilized man so much because as the guiding hand of the large mail-order house of Sears Roebuck and Company he made the latter a home by-word and a successfully rich institution but he is remembered the more because his great and noble heart moved him to lift a long-suffering people out of the slough of ignorance and despair. Julius Rosenwald will be remembered by the Negro, most of all, as the greatest benefactor of the Negro race since the death of Abraham Lincoln. Today the names Rosenwald and Lincoln are synonymously inter-related in the heart and mind of all colored people of whatever class or condition. For Lincoln on the one hand opened the door to the enjoyment of material freedom, while Rosenwald opened that of intellectual advancement. Both of these great men in their own time saw, acted and accepted the urgent need for racial liberation and progress and both, guided by divine Providence, touched the magic spring at their command. Rosenwald's Whereas Lincoln struck free the shackles of bondage and despair, Rosenwald, through the largeness of human generosity and understanding opened the mind and freed the soul within. Today countless thousands of Negro youths have been educated in the schools Mr. Rosenwald's thankful generosity made possible. Other thousands of eager little children have passed through their portals before them and have subsequently entered the world of affairs and enlightment, which, until Mr. Rosenwald's advent, seemed an impossibly and far distant land to them. And incomprehensible as it may seem, in years gone by countless thousands of handicapped colored children and even adults, learned to read in the catalog of the great firm Mr. Rosenwald represented. To them that could not go to school because of their arduous labor in the field, the catalog became the symbol of opportunity; to them the large unwieldy book became the open sesame to greater things. Studied Catalogue So well founded was Mr. Rosenwald's influence, so great the acknowledgement of his many benefactions, and so great the Negro's confidence in him that even in this simple but faithful manner they sought to atune themselves to the mind of that great American. But today, sadly enough, even the prosaic "book of many pictures" is no longer to be seen in the rural Negro home. For the Negro far and wide is wondering just what is happening to the good work begun by this great man. Somehow they feel that the strong foundation laid by him in his lifetime is falling into decay. They had hoped that the work of enlightment and helpfulness started by him as a token of gratitude and goodwill would go on. But, Alas! We are also wondering and shall continue to wonder, and while we wonder we shall keep on praying for the noble spirit of one who is no longer among us to guide us, to inspire us, and to help us. of Royal Poincarne Anna Hotel fame. Still more speak of Johnny J. Jones, the famous Twentieth Century Limited dining car steward, best in the world. But I am going to tell you about P. D. Eudaley a graduate from the University of California, an ex-Army officer of the World War who served with distinction. A gentleman of unquestioned integrity, who is now and has been for a number of years Superintendent of Service of the famous Hotel Homestead, Hot Springs, Va. This man is admired from the man in the gutter to the multi-millionaire such as Mr. and Mrs. Ingalls, owners of the magnificent hotel, because he is a real man. Being intelligently religious and possessed not only of an unusual and unsurpassed executive ability, it is a pleasure not only to work under him but to see his staff functioning. First he hires a man for his ability to serve a guest with neatness and dispatch, and not for his ability to gamble and drink; as the old fashioned greedy, grasping, unscrupulous headwaiter, who demanded his pound of flesh. Instead of loading his men down with expensive uniforms, he supplies them with nice, cool comfortable French uniforms at his own expense. At frequent intervals he uses a great number of Washington men. Their round-trip transportation is paid from their very doorsteps in D.C. In Hot Springs, Va, they sleep in highly sanitary accommodations as his guests, with maid-servants at their beck and call. Their meals are prepared by a special kitchen force and consist of the very best food. WORD IS LAW No dishwasher can have a man fired in this hotel. The confidence reposed in Mr. Eudaley by Mr. and Mrs. George H. Ingalls, proprietors, is so complete until his word is law in the dining room. The kitchen force, including the checkers, with few exceptions are white, and you could not find a more perfect set of gentlemen to work with, anywhere on earth; the cooperation between them and Mr. Eudaley is perfect. H's men pay for no breakage. They are not pestered with a bunch of nonsensical rules and regulations. Church is held regularly on Sunday A.M., in the main dining room, and on Sunday evening in a cozy little chapel, set aside for his waiters' convenience. His working hours are arranged as reasonably as possible. The wonderful cuisine service rendered by this brilliant young superintendent of service and his able lieutenants is the talk of two continents. Men are given every opportunity to make good. Mr. Eudaley has been known to save tips which he received for temporary waiters, and send them here to Washington to these men. How different from some head waiters who receive tips for their crew and pocket the same for their own personal use! Mr. Eudaley is a born organizer and leader of men; I predict a greater destiny for him. This Week BY HAROLD G. EATON From the little country town of Royston, Georgia, comes a strange and interesting story, this week, of a little family of colored prodigies, the outstanding member being one David Forston, a seven-year-old boy. It is not often that one has the pleasure of reading news of such a complimentary nature in white publications. Usually, it seems to be our ill luck to attract the attention of the average white editor only when such doings of our's can be classified as "degrading." But since there are exceptions to other rules the editors no doubt considered the following story that appeared in the American Weekly of Sunday, October 14 as an exception: Remarkable Prodigies of the Negro Race Probably the world's most advanced child for his age, and advanced school child for his age, and undoubtedly the universe's greatest Negro prodigy, is little David Forston, seven-year-old boy of Royston, Georgia, who has made more grades than he is years old... His sister, Ruby Brown only seventeen summers, completed the third year in college shortly after her fourteenth birthday; while her baby, Thomas, Junior, aged one years and three months, can read and goes to town alone on errands... David is a clear-eyed, modest youth, who speaks with sincerity and in an unboundful, yet unhesitating manner. He has a vocabulary that is akin to a college professor's well demonstrated in discussions of the happenings of the day, scientific subjects, and others which include complicated matters covering a wide scope of topics.... After David had successfully mastered the art of writing his name at a year-and-a-half, he began to learn to read. This accomplishment proved an appetizer for the little fellow, and at the age of three, as the records reveal, he could write a letter.... David...works as a delivery boy for a grocery store, while not working he builds many useful things, including toys for the little children in BEST NEWS OF THE NATION'S CAPITAL Federal News Notes by LAURENCE J. W. HAYES It requires more skill to keep faith with conscience than to please all of our friends. A free-lance columnist, who calls a spade and spade, finds that one can please all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time but never all of the people all of the time. Contradictory rumors, to the effect that the editor of this column is on the pay-roll of the Democratic National Committee and the Republican National Committee are all false in all of their implications. A conversation with the publisher of this paper (The Washington Tribune) will disclose the fact that I have paid for the privilege of conducting this column, that no salary or commission has even been offered (much less than been paid) to me, and that there is little chance in the near future of my being placed upon his pay-roll. I am obligated to no one under any circumstances. A local politician, egged on by two or three of his friends (?), who recently tried unsuccessfully to have me relieved of my present position because they thought my criticism of one of their supervised activities unduly severe, failed dismally in his mission. I hope that he lets well enough do. Believing in your cause puts steam in your boiler. I believe, and a goodly number of my friends in high places, that this column (sometimes highly informatory) is a good one for Federal employees to read. Because my mail bag (box—I meant) is chock-full of queries as to the correct procedure to follow to take advantage of the financing plans to repair and modernize your property; I take pleasure in enumerating for you in question form fourteen (14) cardinal points to follow and know when you plan to make your loan for a financing plan through the FEDERAL HOUSING ADMINISTRATION. Here they are: 1. Who may apply?—Any property owner, individual, partnership or corporation with a regular income from salary, commissions business, or other assured source. It is not necessary to be a depositor in the financial institution consulted. 2. To whom do I apply?—To any Financial Institution approved by the Federal Housing Administration; or to a contractor or building supply dealer. 3. How much may I apply for?—From $100 to $2,000 depending on your income, for improvements on any one property. 4. How long may notes run?—For any number of months from one to five years. However, the term of the notes depends entirely on the discretion of the financial institution which may at its option require loans to be repaid over such lesser periods as justified by the amount you can reasonably afford to pay each month. 5. What security is required?—That you have an adequate regular income and a good credit record in your community. Other security may be accepted if deemed necessary by the financial institution to facilitate extension of credit; or if required by the law governing certain institutions. 6. What assurance need I give?—(a) That you own the property. five times the annual payments to be made on the note. (c) That your (b) That the annual gross income of the signers of the note is at least mortgage, if any, is in such standing that the financial institution is justified in approving the loan. (d) That you will use the proceeds solely for property improvement. 7. What signatures are required on the note?—Signature of the property owners; and (except in special cases) if the owner is an individual and is married, also signature of wife or husband. No other co-signers or endorsers are required, unless necessary to facilitate a loan which could not be made otherwise. 8. What is the cost of this credit?—The financial institution may not collect as interest and/or discount and/or fee of any kind, a total charge in excess of an amount equivalent to $5 discount per $100 original face amount of a one-year note, payable in monthly installments. Charge for longer periods than one-year is on the same basis. 9. How do I pay the note?—By making regular, equal, monthly payments (seasonal payments for farmers) until the note is paid in full. 10. May the owner of any kind of property apply?—Applications will be considered for credit to improve one-family, two-family, or other residence; apartment buildings, stores, office buildings, factories, warehouses, farm buildings. 11. Where do I make payments?—The regular installments will be made in person at the place of business of the financial institution; or by mail; or as otherwise arranged. No payment shall be made to any governmental office or organization. 12. May I pay the note in full before maturity date?—Yes, at any time. A reasonable rebate will be allowed for prepayment, if charges have been collected in advance. 13. May I make more than one payment at a time?—Yes, as many as you wish, but such payments should be in exact multiples of the agreed payments—that is if monthly payment is $10, larger payments should total $20, $30, etc.—not, for example, odd sums such as $18 or $25. 14. What if I am late in making my payments?—The maker must not permit his payments to fall in arrears. Should a payment be more than 15 days late, the financial institution's expense, caused thereby, should be reimbursed in part at the rate of not more than five cents per dollar for each payment in arrears. Persistent delinquency will make it necessary for the financial institution to take proper steps to effect collection in full. his neighborhood. This preocious lad will be in the eighth grade in school the current term and will remain seven years old up until the last month-and-a-half of school, his birthday falling on the fourteenth of April. Ruby, his sister, lives in Anderson South Carolina, with her sister, Roberta Gaines. When Ruby commenced her school days in Elberton, Georgia, she worked in the afternoon and so eager was this girl to excel in her school work she would arise at 4:30 in the morning to study. The older people with whom she lived would often hide her books for fear she might impair her health. Her baby, Thomas, who is only a year and three months old, delights in reading every letter that his mother writes, only pausing in reading for an explanation of the words he does not understand. Ruby fears, because of his precocious intelligence, he cannot live past his fourth or fifth birthday. Other members of this family are endowed with this unusual desire to acquire knowledge. Older members on both sides of the house show a striking aptitude for higher learning, and are college graduates or well educated... Says Negroes are Reading More In the opinion of Elmer A. Carter, editor of Opportunity Magazine, the Negro is beginning to read more magazines and books and newspapers and books dealing with racial problems and racial conflict as it affects the Negro in America. Mr. Carter's basis for this statement is the sharp upturn in the circulation of his magazine, which began three months ago and has continued without abatement thru the lean months of July, August and September. The editor said, relative to this upturn: "The increase in the circulation of Opportunity cannot be FEDERAL News N by LAURA It requires more skill to keep all of our friends.

"I believe that the Negro is becoming more and more interested and concerned in an authentic, factual presentation of his status in American life. He is beginning to demand more and more well written articles which deal with nationwide conditions that affect him, and he is desirous of learning the opinions and ideas of those who are competent to speak and write of his problems with authority." THE HIGHWAY OF LIFE BY B. L. IVY On the highway of life, among the Negroes of this country stands a great need—co-operation. A familiar kind of co-operation is teamwork. Unless we can learn the art of teamwork there can be no success reached, no greatness achieved as a race. Take the "ant" a very small creature in size but very great in strength, because what the queen ant orders, the mass falls in line and helps to carry on. They are unselfish in harmony and other phases which proves a step toward success. ※※※ Life is short, and on this great journey, we are always approaching the familiar signs dangerous curves ahead, drive slowly. When the race meets trying situations such as these, let us all fall in line, in unison, then by so doing we can not only hope for success but success is sure. "Nothing is impossible to a willing mind." This and That Bolivia is the only country in South America without a seaport.

You told it to the postman and I've tied the letters up in a bit of ribbon red (that’s to distin- guish them from the mushy stuff” (done up in faded blue) that some old somebody wrote to me in my long-ago “pupy love” days, You whispered it into the telephone and although I couldn't capture the words that came to me over the wire and put them-in a chest, I could “lay them away in lavender” in one of memory's fond recesses, That's exactly what I did. And there they'll ever remain, each pretty word a token for me “to remember you by.” Friends of Mrs, Janet Baltimore are glad Florida is a land of sun- shine, for since that is so the in- teresting S$ Street widow hardly needed a wrap at all when she visited gay Daytona Beach and other southern points. So her pretty warm fur coat is still in her possession. AQ Street matron also took a trip (her poor little coat was tag- ging along). Went to the great Niagara Falis and got so absorbed in what she saw. that she walked right off and left her wrap, Of course, the Q Street coat wasn’t a thing to brag about but it kept the matron warm. And now she’s weeping bitter tears because the summer time has gone. Watch out for the Royal Con- tract Club. Its president is Walter Tate. And there isn’t a “why” or “when” of the party business that the popular Brooklander doesn’t know worlds about. And if he Rappened to miss some slight de- tail the gracious Emma _ (that's Mrs. Tate) could certainly help him’ out. And look at the Club's secretary, Mrs. Bessie Wilkins of 18 Iowa Circle. If you are one of the fifty or more lucky ones who were present a season or s0 ago when that lady staged a party in her spacious Circle home, you know that from the moment you cross her door sill you are in for an interesting evening. Take that ticular o¢easion for instance. You played cards in the handsome parlors but when the time came to dine the hostess led you to the cellar (newly painted white and ily festooned with flowers).

With yellow lights shining through its windows, yellow and white flowers climbing’ up the walls and fluffy yellow biddies scratching about ot the pretty lawn (the carpenter had put a little green fence around the white house) it was the cutest kind of a sight to see. White table linen glistened in the golden glow of tall, tapering candles, On the right of your pretty yellow-ruffled paper plate was a dainty jonquil; on the left side a yellow kerchief done up to look like a butterfly. A. yellow beverages celery stuffed with anap- py. yellow cheese; a salad( it was yellow and white too) and little yellow biddies peeping out of brok- en egg-shells (when you bit into them of course you found them to be ice cream.)

Lawyers Protect Pickets Meanwhile, Attorneys Leland S. Hawkins and Edward D. Mabson, counsel for the local branches of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which instigated and is carrying on the campaign, stood by to see that the pickets were not molested and to provide legal protection in case arrests were made.

End the Color Line!" and "Are Negroes in Your Local? If Not, Why Not?" "The Negro is American labor, and any organization which fails to include him is doomed to failure," said Hawkins. "The A. F. of L has never organized Southern Negro workers. Only 100,000 Negro laborers in the whole country are organized. Negro electrical workers, 1,400 of them, are barred from the unions."

Organized to Hurt Black Men "Labor unions seem to be organized to protect the white worker, and to keep black men out of jobs. An example of the tactics of the American Federation of Labor is shown in the reported complaint of Negro musicians right here in San Francisco, that although they are members of local 648, Musicians Union, Local 6, the white union has used coercion, intimidation and threats to oust these Negro musicians.

Peters, of the Washington Daily News editorial staff, addressing the Civic National Forum at the Twelfth Street Christian Church. Sunday at 4 p.m., showed the processes involved in "Reporting the News," and said that, much to his regret, the general public's literary taste is sordid and craves the cheap and sensational, rather than the true and worth-while. The present-day reading trend encourages yellow journalism, he said. A finer type of journalism will come, when a better popular taste is developed and more generous financial support is given to worthy publications by the reading public. Journalism should not be a service racket, but a social-minded profession, he stated. Dr. Amanda V. G.

THEATERS SPORTS NINE MEMBERS (Continued on page 3) Knees Parents to Benefit by Adult Classes NINE GILLIGAN HINTS AT EFFORT TO MUZZLE TEACHERS Says Some Have Been Afraid to Talk Because of Being Penalized Teachers need not be afraid of carrying their grievances over the heads of their officers to the members of the board of education and they will not be penalized for it, Henry Gilligan, out-spoken board member, stated Wednesday. Mr. Gilligan made his statement in an open meeting of the board and although he did not say so, he inferred that some teachers have been afraid to talk to board members. His statement came as a result of a talk he said he had had with a male teacher who had allegedly been dropped from Cardozo Night School for inefficiency. Garnet C. Wilkinson first assistant superintendent of schools, denied that the man had been dropped for inefficiency, but stated that the teacher was not qualified to instruct a class in shorthand and typewriting. "It looks to me like personality has entered into it," said Mr. Gilligan. "If any teacher is not getting a square deal I don't want them to get the idea that they can't see members of the board of education. I insist that they shall have a right to see us," said Mr. Gilligan. Asks Teacher's Appointment. The discussion came about when Dr. Frank W. Ballou said that the request of business and professional men that the subject of business law be restored to the program of instruction at Cardozo Night High School had been met and the course started. Mr. Gilligan asked that the teacher he had talked with be appointed to the position. Dr. J. Hayden Johnson informed the board that students were unaware of the new course as several had been to him and inquired about the class. Later he was told that a notice of the class had been posted on the bulletin board at the school and announced during an assembly. Mr. Wilkinson promised to investigate the entire matter and report his findings to the board. Mutiple Employment Settled The much discussed question of multiple employment in the schools was settled when the board adopted a motion by Paul Quinn that the officers of the school be permitted to appoint any person in the night schools who is qualified and the law should not be construed to mean that the person may be refused because a husband or wife is employed in the government. The executive committee of the Parent - Teacher Association of Browne Junior High School called the board's attention to the following: Lack of lighting facilities and sidewalks on road leading from Benning Road to Browne Junior High School making it impossible to have adequate attendance at the parent-teacher meetings. Lack of police supervision at two stops on Benning Road Twenty-fourth Street and Twer seventh Street, which in probability contributed to two serious accidents to children. Lack of regular physical training teacher for the boys of this school. A physical training teacher is tailled at this school two days on week. A carpenter shop teacher and a print shop teacher are tailled to conduct classes one each week leaving the other one of the week with no male instructor on this subject. To Study School Children The request of the United States Health Service for permission to continue a study of public school children was granted by the board. A large number of parents of Washington are to be educated by the public schools with Federal Relief funds. When Superintendent Ballou submits recommendations as to what shall bedone, the first program will be held. Public school nursery centers will supply about 250 parents. Instruction will presumably be restricted to mothers since the proposed idea is to teach child care, nutrition and other allied subjects. Parent education is made possible by increased grants from Federal Relief funds for nursery centers and adult education, over the amounts provided last winter.
