HIGH COURT HEARS MD. U. ARGUMENT
ANNAPOLIS, Md.—Arguments against the right of Donald Gaines Murray to remain a student in the law department of the university of Maryland were heard Tuesday by the court of appeals here. Mr. Murray is the only Negro student attending the University of Maryland. He was admitted on a writ of mandamus issued by Judge Eugene O'Dunne, white, late last summer. Attorneys Charles T.LeVinness and William Henderson, counsel for the university, held that the admission of Negroes to the school would eventually bring about no little embarrassment. Colored medical students might even be called on to treat white patients at the university hospital in Baltimore, it was feared.
Attorneys Charles H. Houston and Thurgood Marshall, the latter of Baltimore, represented Murray. The student himself was unable to be present at the hearing. The decision of the court was withheld for further study.

Mrs. Sumner Says H. U. Prof. Slept With Gun Under Pillow
Divorce proceedings against Francis C. Sumner, professor of psychology at Howard University, began in the District Supreme Court before Chief Justice Alfred Wheat, Monday afternoon, with indications that the testimony of the long line of witnesses would not be concluded until the last part of the week.
Mrs. Sumner, who is asking for a divorce and alimony, charging her husband with cruelty and dissention, was the only witness to take the stand Monday afternoon.
Speaking in a rapid and excited manner, she testified that she and her husband were married in Asbury Park, August 31, 1922, and that from that day to the time they separated, her life was one of unbearable misery.
Started Before Honeymoon
The first argument her husband had with her, she said, was over where they would spend their honey-moon, and cursed her at that time, she said.
He wanted her to eat in a restaurant that was "filthy with flies," she said, and when she refused, another heated argument ensued. Later, when he prepared to return to West Virginia State College, where he was teaching, they had another argument over where they would stay there.
At West Virginia State College, the wife charged, her husband slept out all night, once, and beat her and abused her constantly, making her get out of the bed to light the gas heaters, cook his breakfast, etc., she set forth.
At one time when she asked for some winter underwear, she said, he refused to get them for her and (See SUMNER. Page 2).

TRANSFUSIONS FAIL TO SAVE LOCAL DEB
Funeral services for Miss Mildred Butler, 23, year-old local debitante and a former student at the Miner Teachers' College, were held this morning (Friday), from the Holy Redeemer Church, the Reverend Father John J. Albert, pastor, officiating.
Miss Butler died shortly after midnight Tuesday at Freedmen's Hospital following an illness of about three months. Several blood transfusions to which relatives and a friend had submitted were futile in the fight to save the girl's life.

Green and Norris, New Members, Flay Athletic Policies at Hilltop School WANT BETTER TEAMS, BETTER OPPOSITION
Bison '35 Team Described As "Disgraceful"; West Speaks in Self-Defense
In one of the most bitterly debated meetings in the history of its existence, the board of athletic control at Howard University, Tuesday night, heard rigorous protests against policies and practices governing the conduct of athletics at the Hilltop institution. The discussion was led by Dr. Fleming Norris, of Passaic, N.J., and Dr. Henry Green, of this city, both newly elected members of the board. Both assailed the administration and the student body for the "most disgraceful football team Howard ever placed on a field."
Poor Grid Showing
The meeting was the culmination of a series of criticisms flung at the 1935 football team, its poor showing and its schedule of uninteresting games.
"To be or not to be something" resolutions were drawn to prevent Howard from having any gridiron contests at all unless she could offer competition against the country's best. The striking of Miner Teachers' College, Cheyney and St. Paul from the 1936 schedule and the inclusion of such teams as Morehouse, Fisk, Wilberforce and Tuskegee, was recommended.

WHITELAW CLERK HELD UP,ROBBED
Gunman Flees Hotel After Securing $105 From James Bass
Police of the District are combing the city for a bandit who held up the clerk in the Whitelaw Hotel, Thirteenth and T Streets, Northwest, Wednesday about noon, and escaped with $105 in cash.
James W. Bass, the hotel clerk, reported to police of No. 2 Precinct Station that he was making up a deposit to take to a bank when the man, who was shabbily dressed, came to the desk and asked about renting the hotel dance hall.
At that time Bass said another patron was at the desk, and the man left. A few minutes later the bandit returned and asked for a certain date, and when the clerk turned his back he felt something against his side. On turning, Mass said the man had a revolver pressed to his side, and demanded the cash on the counter.
Without waiting for the clerk to comply with the demand, the bandit grabbed up the money and threatened to shoot if Bass made an outcry. After scooping up the money, the bandit ran from the lobby and disappeared through a side entrance. When Bass gave the alarm, the holdup man had left the scene of the robbery. Several persons who saw the man leave the hotel said he jumped into a taxicab which was standing near the entrance. Police secured a complete description of the man and are confident that he will be arrested.

Board's Decision Ends Row Which Began When Club First Sought License MUST CEASE SELLING LIQUOR DECEMBER 1
Hurwitz, Proprietor, to Close Entire Business, He Tells Tribune
By FREDERICK S. WEAVER.
The Cotton Club must cease selling alcoholic beverages at midnight, November 30, 1935. So it was decided by the District Commissioners this week when they voted unanimously to uphold the decision of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board, which had ordered the license of the club revoked.
Thus ended practically a year of bickering between various civic groups, educational groups, the A. B. C. Board and the Cotton Club.
Board of Education Opposed
The first opposition was registered by the Federation of Civic Associations and the Board of Education, both arguing that the premises were too close to schools and churches in the community, and would be bad influence to school children. Having lost their fight to prevent the club from securing the license, the school board dropped out of the picture, but the fight has continuously been carried on by various civic units and various individuals.
Opposition of the citizens was augmented by several complaints filed against the club by the A. B. C. Board, itself charging (See COTTON CLUB, Page 2)

A Living Lord

Forgive us, Oh Christ, for we have hurried Thee.
have buried Thee
Bencath our dogmas and creeds,
Always disputing, what should and
should not be.
And giving little attention to
human needs.
Great temples to Thee, we build,
And to them we point with pride,
Leaving Your commandments un-
fulfilled,
And obscuring that for which you
died.
Help us to banish all that hides
Thee
And in terms, so proclaim Your
word.
A risen and living Lord.

It strikes me as a pretty hard thing to believe although I have found, through careful diagnosis, that that is an actual fact.
Two Negroes, members of a group that have occupied the real estate under Sir Walter Raleigh's jacket ever since Tom Cribb and Tom Molyneaux said, "Le's fight," today hold the destiny of the entire profession in their chubby or should I've said clubby (?) bronze fists.
They are Joe Louis and John Henry Lewis.
One is champion in everything, but name, of the heavyweight division. The other is the acknowledged titleholder in the light-heavyweight domain. The contracts of both for future fights are held by the nation's leading promoters of the sport.
Louis, as you all probably know by now, is signed to an agreement with Mike Jacobs of the Twentieth Century Sporting Club, whereby he must do his fighting for that organization, and that organization alone until 1940. It was a smart move on the part of Jacobs to tie the Brown Bomber up to such a contract. Likewise, it was no reflection on the shrewdness of Louis's managers when it was announced that such was the case.
John Henry Lewis is also bound by an agreement. His is with the Madison Square Garden Corporation. It calls for the first fight in defense of the title he won from Bob Olin.
Louis and Lewis, are thus siezed upon by these two rival agencies as weapons with which they hope to fight off one another.
Let me deviate here long enough to state that, despite the tales of conciliation between Madison Square Garden and Twentieth Century, there is still that keen sense of indignation existing between these two. The former is by no means pleased at the prospect of having the newer organization supplant them as the kingpins of sports promotion in New York. And the latter is determined not to be turned back after the progress it has made toward that end.
JOHN HENRY LEWIS.
the 21-year-old Phoenix, Arizona, marvel who won the lightheavy-weight championship of the world in a bruising battle in St. Louis last Thursday night. He literally battered Champion Bob Olin to a pulp and absorbed all the champion could give. Olin's bulldog tenacity and supreme courage were all that enabled him to weather the 15 rounds.
Let's trace the progress of this rivalry and see how the craft of one was met with the cunning of the other during these past 6 or 8 months.
It was away back in early spring that Madison Square Garden first sensed the menace that Joe Louis presented as a challenger in the boxing game. Never too pleased at the idea of Negro fighters—the kind who couldn't be "approached"—occupying a ranking position in the sport, the Garden became interested (but not the kind that's a mother's) in how the Detroit boy was hoping for a crack at the title.
Gus Greenlee of Pittsburgh, manager of Lewis, announced that he had an offer for at least half a dozen bouts for his fighter already in hand.
Their position became all the more precarious, they realized, when it was learned that Mike Jacobs, who was planning the organization of a sports promoting club, right in New York, had followed Louis to the west coast and later into Chicago and Detroit, watching him fight.
LIONS HUMBLED BY A. AND T.
Garden officials, therefore, were not surprised when Jaocbs returned to New York, completed the organization of his Twentieth Century Club, secured his promoter license and made public the signing of Louis and Primo Carnera for a "world's heavyweight elimination contest."
Right away they got busy and signed Max Baer, the then champion, for a match with James J. Braddock, of New Jersey, for the heavyweight title. Jimmy Johnston, Garden matchmaker, did some fast thinking and when Braddock emerged from this battle victorious, he and his cronies laughed up their sleeves every time they read Jacobs's billing "the winner of this fight (between Louis and Carnera) to meet Max Baer for the world's heavyweight title."
LINCOLN, Pa. — The Lincoln University Lions dropped their home-coming encounter with the N. C. Aggies on Rendall field, last Saturday, by 18-0. The Lions were aggressive enough to add color to the fray but were never able to advance beyond the visitors' 15-yard line.
Captain Norman, of the Carolinians, won the toss and elected to kick-off. J. Jackson, Lion quarter-back, took the kick-off on his 25 yard line and ran to the 35 yard stripe before he was tackled by Lash, Aggie left tackle. W. Brown gave the Pennsylvanians their initial first down on a 15 yard gain around left end.
But Jacob and his associates met the Garden move with one of their own. They left the scene of the Carnera fight, went out to Chicago, made Louis scramble King Levinsky into a heap, and then returned to New Yirk where the Bronzed Budha followed instructions and administered the sleeping potion to the Garden's former idol, Baer.
Seeing that the public—that irresponsible something which really runs the fight game—was ignoring their champion, Bradock, and was hailing Louis as the "cock of the roost." Garden officials again started thinking.
In the second quarter Norman completed a beautifully executed running pass to McClain, who had replaced Burdan at left-end, for a touchdown. Little, Lion pivot man, blocked Norman's try for the extra point.
They established a precedent when they entered an agreement with Twentieth Century whereby the latter would be permitted to stage boxing shows there this winter. But they also cut themselves in on a goodly portion of the handsome gates that the appearance of the Detroit Dynamiter promised.
Late in the final period, J. Jackson, Lincoln, attempted a forward pass to G. Jackson. Norman intercepted it and after running 24 yards latera'ed twice to two of his teammates—Hershey sprinting across the goal line for the third and final score of the day. Norman's placement kick for the extra point was wide, making the final score 18-0.
Jacobs, too, shared some of this elation for it meant just about the only way he would be able to take down a part of a real, actual championship gate. The Garden, he knew, would not permit Braddock to risk his title against any fighter in whom the Garden had not already signed for future defenses of the belt. Then it was that the Garden, still planning its own protection, still digging trench lines, started eyeing the other divisions. Their attention went at once to the next lower class the light-heavyweight.
Kentucky State Tames Morris Brown
Here was John Henry Lewis, challenger, fighting Bob Olin, white champion, for somebody away down in St. Louis. And it came to some one of the Corporation that Olin had at some time or other signed a contract to first defend his title under Garden promotion. Immediately court proceedings were instituted and an injunction to restrain the two from going on with the fight was asked.
ATLANTA, Ga. (Ga. by ANP)—Continuing a drive that has been halted by one team this season, the Kentucky Thoroughbreds defeated Morris Brown University, here Saturday afternoon 15-0.
Settlement was made out of court. And here is the way it was settled. Olin and Lewis both agreed that if the Garden would let them go through with the fight, the winner would make his first stand in defense of the championship for the Garden.
The Kentuckians were the masters at all times and in every department of the game with the Georgians attempting to regain the prestige lost last Saturday by the Southern Conference when the Thoroughbreds defeated the Tuskegee Institute Tigers.
Lewis won. The Garden has the right to book him for his next fight. Twenty minutes after he scored his victory, the Phoenix, Arizona, lad announced his intention of becoming a heavyweight. Joe Louis is the airplane in the hands of Twentieth Century.

DETROIT—Joe Louis, back in Detroit after a jaunt down to West Baden, Ind., Louisville, Ky., and St. Louis where he witnessed the John Henley Lewis-Bob Olin light-heavyweight championship fight last Thursday, will strike out on another exhibition tour that will take him up through Canada. Joe arrived in Detroit Wednesday afternoon. After a two-day visit with his mother, sisters and brothers, Joe departed Saturday for Montreal, Canada where he will engage in a three-round exhibition bout Monday night.
Exhibitions Listed
Tuesday the Louis party will be in Ottawa where Joe will put on another exhibition. The following Wednesday he will be in Toronto for another exhibition. Joe then returns to Detroit for a couple of days before going east.
A tentative tour of the east that will include dates in Bridgeport, Con., and Portland, Maine, has been mapped out. Immediately at the conclusion of this tour Joe will return to Dr. Joseph Bier's camp at Pompton Lakes, N.J. to prepare for his bout with Paolino Uzcudun at Madison Square Garden on December 13.
No More Refereeing
The Louis managers declared this week that there will be no more refereeing for Louis. They believe that the fans would rather see the Brown Bomber in ring garb than prancing around in his civies. They arrived at this conclusion after witnessing their protege working as third man in the ring in St. Louis in one of the preliminaries to the Lewis-Olin bout.

CHICAGO (By ANP)—Although he does not approve of Hitler and his tactics, Ralph Metcalfe feels that the United States should support the U.S. Olympic team until the International committee proves Germany has not lived up to the rules and regulations of that organization, the famous sprint star, student at Marquette University in Milwaukee, told the Associated Negro Press this week. Metcalfe's complete statement follows:
"First let me state that I am by no means approving of Hitler and his tactics. Further I feel my position as a Negro athlete planning to participate in the 1936 Olympic games. It is only as an athlete that I am going to make the following statement—not as a mediator between the United States and Germany. The foremost thought in my mind is the primary purpose of the Olympic games; for clean sportsmanship between the various nations.
Germany Merely Host
"Germany is merely host for the Olympic games. The games themselves are conducted by the International committee who have gone on record as approving Germany as a suitable site for the Olympic games next summer. This of course was done after a thorough investigation by them. Until Germany interferes with rules and regulations of the Olympic games I feel that America should support the Olympic team.
"I participated in seven cities in Germany during the summer of 1933 and never was I mistreated nor were there any evidence of racial prejudice as far as Negroes are concerned."

Donald "Red" Barry, who was kayed by Louis last March in the third round in San Francisco, will be Louis's opponent at Ottawa. Paul Cavalier will face the Brown Bomber at Toronto. In all probability Cavalier will be one of Louis's sparring mates when the Detroit Dynamiter goes into training for his December bout.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (By ANP)—Dwight Reed proved to be the star of the game here Saturday afternoon when Minnesota defeated the Boilermakers from Purdue University, 29-7. Reed, the Gopher end, was in every play and during the three quarters which he played, was not only a great defensive player but a star on the offense.
On defense, however, he was an outstanding star breaking up play after play behind the line of scrimmage as well as forward passes. In fact he played so much in the Purdue backfield that he might have been mistaken for one of the Purdue players.

Jackie Bethards Replaces Ricks with Rens
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—According to the Philadelphia Independent Jackie Bethards, of Boston, ex-member of the Philadelphia Giants and Chicago Crusaders will replace the veteran Pappy Ricks in the 1935 New York Renaissance line up.
Bethards has been long considered the only rival to the brilliant guard, Fats Jenkins. He has been a favorite among white and colored in Eastern basketball circles. His famous clowning antics and brilliant team play will make him at home with his great and often droll teammates, Tarzan Cooper Fats Jenkins, the "Mutt and Jeff" of the World's champions.
Ricks, the daddy of the world famous team, is expected to retire in a few months. In his prime he was unequalled and as a veteran he was more constant than most young stars. The Rens will open their season here on November 11.
Ebenezer-Jacket Tilt Listed for Stadium
The second of a series of games between outstanding gridiron teams of the city will be staged at Griffith Stadium on Sunday, November 17.

That this contest will have an important bearing on the city championship stands to reason, what with the Yellowjackets and the Ebenezens staging a battle for first place in the District Sandlot Grid League race.

Last week your correspondent carried some data which he considered interesting on Display, hooking that famous sire of the now famous Discovery up to the Pimlico race course, where the Maryland fall season is at present having its fling. Well, in looking over some more of the achievements of that popular horse, it has been discovered that Discovery is only a small part (though the greatest) of that sire's contributions to the turf sport.
Aside from being the sire of the year's outstanding handicap horse, Display is the daddy of such as Parade Girl, Winter Sport, Sobriety, Dolled Up, Gilt and Nouveau Riche. These are his third juvenile crop. He contributed Exhibit, Sablin, Dark Dianc, Official, Direct Hit, Dedication, Quivra, Dancing Spirit, Fast Stride, Later On and Demonstration to the two-year-old crop of last season.
Distribute Disa, This Play, Showcase, Playful Martha, Divert and Discovery were Display's contributions to racing the year before last.
And the breeding sharks of the country had predicted that Display was the son of Fair Play who would prove a failure at production.

Fans at Pimlico have shown a renewed interest in the "Daily Double," an interest which was woefully on the wane at Laurel. In the first place officials at the Old Hilltop course do not look upon the "Double" as a nuisance. They not only give the public ample time to place their bets something which was not done at Laurel—but they see to it that their first and third races do no include "standout" horses, something which makes the payoff extremely low.

Clarence Reid and Ray Booker, sepiia members of the riding colony at Maryland, continue to thrill the patrons with their efforts aboard poor, outclassed mounts. The twenty thousand fans who viewed Saturday's Pimlico program cheered lustily for Booker as he tried valiantly to get the nose of his mount, Our Ship, in front of that Smear's in the opening event. Our Ship was a 15 to 1 betting proposition.
Reid, in the next race, rode a third on Lady Carrot, another mediocre performer. Lady Carrot was hustled to such extent that she, often guilty of lull racing, was only two lengths of Jack Patches, the winner when the finish line was reached.
At the finish of the third race, Booker had ridden Braw Scot in third place, beaten by Bye Bye Mary and Bender First. A difference of one length separated the trio. It was Braw Scot, which with Booker in the saddle, set the record for pay-offs at Laurel. The $220.00 he paid for each $2 mutuel will not be forgotten very soon.

Payne and Briscoe Lead Trojans to Win In Traditional Clash
Bv G G SINGLETON
PETERSBURG. Va.—Coach Harry R. Jefferson's up and coming Virginia State College Trojans defeated Coach Henry Hucles's fighting Virginia Union Panthers, their traditional rivals, 7 to 0, in a hard fought game, before a large Home-coming Day crowd, on wet Rogers's Field here, Saturday. With a wet turf under foot, fleet footed backs of both teams found the going hard, and early it became evident that kicking would decide the game, and this kicking did, for it was the phenominal punting of Ercles Payne, Trojan half-back of Washington, D.C., which turned out to be the complete undoing of the victory-hungry Panthers.
Play Kicking Gam
Play Kicking Game
For three periods, Payne's trusty toe was called into action on first or second down every time the Trojans got the ball. And the sturdy back served the Trojan cause creditably, for his 50-yard punts kept the Panthers almost always deep in their own territory. Only when Trojans believed that there was opportunity to score in sight did they open up with ground-gaining plays. It was smart football that brought forth the desired fruit late in the final period.
Throughout three periods the two teams fought hard without a real threat to score from either side. Union enjoying the advantage on yardage gained from scrimmage and on first downs; while the Trojans played patiently for the break which they quite evidently believed that Payne's trusty toe would bring.
And this break came in the middle of the final period when Lavert Gardner, Virginia State's reliable end, of Cleveland, Ohio, recovered a fumbled punt on Union's 20-yard line. From here the Trojans opened up a devastating power and an aerial attack that brought victory. Although penalized 15 yards for an infraction of rules on the second play in their goal-ward march, the Trojans would not be denied. Briscoe shot a bullet like pass to "Ace" Bailey, Virginia State's Cleveland flash which gained 20 yards and first down on Union's 8-yard line. Briscoe, Bailey, and Graves smashed the Panthers forward wall for the remaining distance, Graves plunging through his own left tackle to score from the two-yard line.
Briscoe, freshman back from Washington, D.C., plunged through the same left tackle to score the extra point standing up. Not a Panther laid hands on him.

Counting 14 points in their first quarter and 6 in their third, while holding their opponents scoreless, the Armstrong High School gridders kept their 1935 slate clear of ties or defeats, at Walker Stadium Wednesday afternoon. The score was 20-0.
The Generals outplayed their opponents, the Baltimore Vocational eleven, from the opening whistle to the sound of the final signal. Getting off to an early start, they pushed two touchdowns, one by Clarke the other by Kelsey, before the game was many minutes o'd. Clark and Jackson added the extra points. The former via line plunge and the latter by placement kick.
Vocational Tries
A steady drive down field netted the Orange and Blue its third touchdown, Kelsey going over after a march of 62 yards. The attempt to negotiate the extra point failed.
The Vocationalists were able to threaten seriously on only two occasions. Once in the second quarter they got well into Armstrong territory only to lose possession of the ball when the General forward wall braced and would give no more. Again in the fourth period, the visitors made a gesture at scoring, but were spiked by the Tech defense.

Joe Louis's Trainer Cleared Following Inquest Over Enoch Houser, 69
CHICAGO (ANP)—Enoch Houser, one of Tuskegee's first graduates, who was purported to have been shot in a gun battle a fortnight ago between Jack Blackburn, trainer for Joe Louis, and John Bowman, is dead and the case was apparently closed here Saturday morning when a coroner's jury rendered a verdict of "came to death from pneumonia superinduced by gun shot wounds fired by unknown parties."
The case is closed, Blackburn and Bowman have been released but rumors and reports of money, political chicane and "fixing" are rife. In fact before the first inquest had closed it was reported on the streets that "the fix" had been made and there would be nothing done about the case.
Denies Having Gun
Blackburn declared empathically that he had no weapon on the Sunday afternoon at which time the alleged gun-battle was staged, therefore it could not have been a battle with only one armed man shooting. Neither of the men involved in the shooting were carried to the hospital where the injured man had been taken for identification, the inference being that he would "pull through" despite the fact that he was 69 years old and the wound was described as three inches above the heart. This according to those attending the inquest made it exceptionally hard for Deputy Coroner Grant to secure any testimony that would be damaging to those charged with the killing and there were no eye-witnesses to testify, the only eye-witness being Enoch Houser who was dead and whose death was being investigated
There was, however, one person alleged to have been able to testify at the second inquest, at which all the principals were present, a sister-in-law of the Hauser family but when the appointed hour arrived she "stood upon her constitutional rights" and refused to say anything. In fact apparently the report that she was in the know was altogether erroneous. Someone had misquoted her.

COLORED PLAYERS STAR AS IOWA U. TIES INDIANA
Oze Simmons and Homer Rarris Enable Hawkeyes to Keep Slate Clean
IOWA CITY, Ia. — Two Negro players, Oze Simmons and Homer Harris, played the leading roles in Iowa University's rally to stave off defeat at the hands of a "dark-horse" University of Indiana eleven here last Saturday.
The former, a backfield star of the Iowans, ran 59 yards to score the tying touchdown. The latter, stellar end on the same team, broke through the opposition defense to block an attempted placement kick, which if unmolested might have proved the margin of victory in the 6-6 outcome.
Indiana mixed passes and line bucks through a sagging Iowa forward wall to negotiate a touchdown after a 65-yard sustained drive in the second period.
Coming back after the half intermission, Iowa rallied. Led by Simmons, the Hawkeyes brought the ball from deep in their own territory to just short of midfield, the colored star snatched a pass from center, skirted his left end and eluded the visiting secondary to keep his team's hitherto undefeated record clean.
Victory for Iowa would have meant her fifth straight win, and Indiana's fourth loss.
Great Britian manufactured 500 different kinds of safety razors, it has been estimated.

"Dr. Socrates"
Paul Muni Ann Dvorak
Paul Mnui will be seen as the "Scarface" of medicine in his latest starring picture "Dr. Socrates" which will be shown at the Lincoln Theatre for an entire week beginning Friday.
The picture is based on the popular novel by W. R. Burnett, author of "Little Caesar" and shows Muni through the aid of medical science aiding the G-Men in rounding up a mob of gangsters.
Muni, in the role of a once famous physician whose nerves have been shattered by the death of his flancee, tries to bury himself in a small town. In this he is successful until one night a notorious bank bandit forces him at the point of his revolver to dress wound he had received in a battle with police.
The bandit and his band terrorize the surrounding territory, rob the bank and shoot up the town. Among those injured is a girl who had leaped from the bandit's ear.
Muni, who has been dubbed Dr. Socrates by a blustering country doctor, a part played by Robert Bavat, dresses the girl's wounds and takes her home.
That some night Dr. Socrates is again held up and taken to the robber hide-out to dress wounds. He recognizes the place, calls for government agents, and by a ruse throws the handbills off guard, so that the secret service men and their posse are able to capture the stronghold without blowing it up and killing the kidnapped girl.
Ann Dvorsak plays the part of the girl with whom Muni falls in love.

The story tells of a great surgeon, who gradually goes mad because of love for a beautiful actress, who loves another. As his madness grows, a steady transformation in the man is seen on the screen. His astounding plot to ruin a husband to gain the woman he covets is the basis of the story.
The bizarre locales include the backstage region of the horor theatre, with it's strange "props" and affects, the theatre itself with its macabre trimmings, the weird clinic and surgery of the surgeon with its fantastic lights, gleaming instruments and trappings, the forbidding street of the guillotine, and other surroundings in keeping with the strange story.
A notable cast surrounds Lorre in his first American-made picture. Frances Drake plays the heroine Colin Clive is her husband.

Noel Coward. Julie Haydon
Noel Coward, the distinguished stage star, makes his screen debut in "The Scoundrel," the new Ben Hecht-Charles MacArthur production coming to the Booker T. Theatre, Friday.
Coward—actor, playwright, composer and generally conceded the most brilliant figure of the contemporary theatre, plays a literary Casanova in this sharp and satiric decadence in the New York smart set.
He has the role of a hallow, artificial and brilliant publisher, so accustomed to playing at love with the unreal people who comprise his society that he fails to comprehend the realness of Julie Haydon, a young poetess who offers him her heart.
Coward takes her from the boy who really loves her, breaks her heart and sets adrift in his corrupt circle. He goes on an airplane trip to escape one of his importunate women and is reported killed.
While his former friends are cynically commenting on his demise, he suddenly reappears among them to pay fervent suit to Julie Haydon, the only real person he has ever known.
In a gripping, dramatic climax, she learns that it is not the real Coward who has returned, but his ghost which could not be still until it had found someone to mourn him. And she was chosen.

in "Sunset Range." Hoot said,
"Don't forget, however, that the

Hoot has been a western star for many years and before that time was a stunt man for pictures. A couple of years ago he had a serious accident in the National Air Race at Mines Field, but as soon as he was able to get around, he started flying again.
"Sunset Range" is from an original story by Paul Schofield. Directed by Ray McCarey. In the supporting cast are Mary Doran, John Elliott. James Eagles and Fred Gilman.

HOLLYWOOD. — Quite the most exciting news from Hollywood this week, at least from my viewpoint, is the opening of the new Club Comique. This smart rendezvous dedicated to conveying entertainment of a sophisticated sort to the stars of filmland and their satellites, held its premiere opening last Wednesday. It was a howling success.
Located at 7210 Beverly Boulevard, in easy reach of the most exclusive sections of Hollywood and Beverly Hills, it represents quite the most ambitious enterprise of the sort ever attempted by a young woman of color here, for the promoters are none other than Fay Jackson and her partner Virginia Tazewell. In a sense it is a venture in inter-racial endeavor of the most effective sort, combining all the assets of these two young women of different races, financial and artistic, supplemented by their undeniable cleverness.

Soon after getting here last week his Majesty of Hi-De-Ho paid a visit to the city council chambers along with Mrs. Cab, Clarence Muse, Etta Moten, Mrs. Bill Robinson and several others. As soon as the band lader was introduced, the city's business was tabled for the moment and the council wouldn't council and Cab couldn't leave until he had dished up a few tunes in his own coat style.

Clarence Muse still remains in the vanguard of the procession. He has ideas, that lad.

TWO
OPPONENTS OF MARXISM ARE HEARD
Pros and Cons of Communism Get Airing Before Board of Education
Advocates of an absolute prohibition of discussion of communism in the public schools in the District of Columbia sweoped down upon the Board of Education at their first November meeting. Wednesday, and for more than an hour hammered home to members of the board that they had defied Congress in accepting the opinion of the Congressional mandate as interpreted by Corporation Counsel E Barrett Prettyman.
But opponents of the Marxian doctrine were not the only ones who took up the time of the Board of Education, for there were many there who agreed with Prettyman and the board likewise demanded that they be permitted to present their views. The board gladly granted their requests.
Foe of Communism
The dozens who presented themselves as opponents of communism were headed by Major General Amos A. Fries, arch enemy of communism, whose stir-up was largely responsible for the last Congress attaching a rider to the D.C. appropriation, providing that no teacher in the public schools who teaches or advocates communism shall receive salary. Fries, who heretofore had insisted that communism should not be taught or advocated, Wednesday struck a compromise and insisted that the evils of communism should be taught and nothing more. Still the general contended that he objected to the word "teach" being used in the corporation counsel's opinion.
Wants Truth Told
The opponents of communism have no monopoly on patriotism. Jesse C. Suter, white, declared before the board in upholding the decision of the corporation counsel. "We are all patriotic, more so than many of them who have opposed your decision." Suter said, "but I feel that the place to teach the truth about communism is in the schools. Let the children have the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, and we will have no fears," he said.
The board was informed of a letter from William H. Hastie, administrator, New Negro Alliance, advising the board that his organization wished "to endorse and express appreciation for the action of the Board of Education in authorizing and approving the dissemination of information about communism in appropriate courses in the public schools of the District of Columbia," and contending that it is "obvious that no intelligent criticism of communism is possible without such knowledge."
A letter from Woolsey W. Hall, secretary of the Citizens' Joint Conference of Civic, Welfare and Educational Groups, was also acknowledged, in which he informed the board that his organization had "complete confidence in the wisdom, fairness, and integrity in the discharge of the important trusts committed to it," and at the same time affirmed "its utter lack of confidence in the leadership of the fermented pretended alarm at the alleged insepage of communistic doctrine through public educational channels."
Thith Ith Tho
There is more romance and strange things in the history of journalism than can be found in any other profession in the world. Here is a bit of journalistic ingenuity that shows the sort of stuff of which newspaper men are made.
Probably the oddest newspaper ever published was the one that was issued in California—the Sawtelle Sentinel—which had to make its appearance without the letter "s." The editor made an explanation as follows:
"At the time the Thentail walt about half the up, an evil dith-pothed mithcrent entered our office and carried away all our

privileges granted by their license. The climax to the entire affair came when a group of determined citizens, who live in the neighborhood of the club, petitioned the board to revoke the license of the club on the grounds that they were unable to sleep after midnight because of the noises eminating from the club.
H. U. Registrar. Spokesman
The group of neighbors were headed by Frederick D. Wilkinson, Howard University registrar, who lives three doors from the Cotton Club. Elected by the group as their spokesman, Wilkinson put up a determined fight $t_0$ have the license revoked accepting no compromise suggested by the club management or employees of the club. Before a decision had been reached growing out of the citizens' complaint, Jerome Johnston, white, special investigator for he A. B. C. Board, filed charges against the club, alleging that Louis Hurwitz, owner of the club, was permitting the sale of liquor on the premises after hours; was selling liquor to persons already intoxicated, and was permitting the premises to be used for disorderly purposes.
After considering all the charges, the board ordered the licence of the club revoked.
Hurwitz appealed the decision to the District Commissioners, who reviewed the case Tuesday morning and voted to uphold the decision handed down by the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board.
Hurwitz, in a statement to the Tribune, said that he could not operate his luncheonette and drug store without the club and would close the entire business when his license expired, which, he said, would throw seventy-six persons, employed by him, out of work.

H. U. FRESHMAN WOMEN INSPIRED AT ILLUMINATION
Junior Class Wins Trophy at First Annual Ceremony
Illumination Night, a picturesque ceremony, was held on the Women's Campus, Howard University, last Thursday, when all women participated in a campus celebration, consisting of songs, marches and pantomimes, all designed to illuminate the college careers of the women. The procession was formed at Crandall residence hall with the senior, graduate, and professional women in the lead, followed by the others in descending rank, and ending with the freshmen who came from Frazier Hall.
Forming a large circle, symbolic of Protection, the freshmen were led to the centre of the campus in darkness around the "Sacred Tree." Then the chain of laterns broke into two semi-circles, with the freshmen forming one, and the upperclassmen the opposite semi-circles. At this point each sophomore silently gave a lantern to each freshman to illuminate her college career. The various groups resumed march to their respective stations to sing. At a signal from the mar hals the terms of a singing contest were announced, and after each group had sung the judges pronounced the winner and an award was made to the winning group.
"Illumination Night Marshals" chosen well in advance were: Leila Green," 36, Evelyn Johnson "36, and Geraldine Scott "39. Judges for the occasion were Miss Carolyn Grant, Howard University School of Music, Miss Arliner Young, Department of Science, Miss Juanita P. Howard, Dunbar High School, Miss Ruth Weatherless Sample, Cardozo High School, and Miss Helen Harris, Department of Education, Howard University.

DRUNKEN COP IS FINED BY JUDGE
Later his father came for a visit, she said, and he abused her to the extent that she had to make him leave her house. In 1927, Mrs. Sumner said, her husband received an appointment on the faculty at Howard University, and was given a place to stay in her mother's home until her father, who was in the real estate business could find a home for him.
Slept With Gun
When a home was found, her father, Mrs. Sumner alleged, paid part of the down payment on premises at 1116 Fairmont Street, Northwest.
Policeman George E. Kimmell. Second Precinct, was found guilty of intoxication when arraigned in Police Court before Judge Isaac R. Hitt and after a stirring plea by his counsel. had a $10 fine reversed to personal bond.
She charged her husband with threatening her with a knife and drawing a gun on her on divers occasions. She said he slept with a gun under his bed.
Kimmell was arrested in Freedmen's Hospital last Friday night by Lieut. C. J. P. Weber, white when Weber found him intoxicated. Kimmell had taken Joseph Prather, 1225 New Jersey Avenue, Northwest, to the hospital for treatment of injuries sustained by Prather when he was struck by a car driven by the drunken officer. Following his arrest, Kimmell was returned to the station house and locked in a cell on orders of his lieutenant.
Mrs. Sarah Minor, 65-year-old aunt of Mrs. Summer and John L. Houghton, 1116 Fairmont Street, Mrs. Summer's father, testified to the alleged cruelty of Professor Summer.
Several witnesses remain to be heard, among them Dr. E. C. Wiggins, instructor in urology, Howard University; Dr. Max Meenes, white professor of psychology. From the questioning of Mrs. Summer, it was indicated that Dr. Wiggins will testify that while the couple were living together on Fairmont Street, Mrs. Summer injured her husband. The physician from Georgetown University is expected to refute that argument.
Represented in court by Harry Whelen, white. Kimmell testified that he took one drink before dinner and another following the meal after he had gone off duty at 4 p.m., Friday. He claimed he was made ill by the odor of ether at the hospital.
Mrs. Sumner is being represented by Canfield and Castiello. white attorneys. George E. C. Hayes represents Professor Sumner.
Witnesses for the prosecution claimed that Kimmell was using loud and abusive language in the hospital.

HOW FLORENCE WON HER MAN
BOARD'S STAND ON COMMUNISM IS PRAISED BY GROUP
Major General Fries Attacked by Joint Conference of Citizens
Meeting at the Phyllis Wreatley Y.W.C.A. last Monday night the Citizens' Joint Conference of Civic, Welfare and Educational Groups, adopted a resolution praising the Board of Education for its stand in the issue of Communism, and expressed its lack of confidence in those who are attacking the board for its views. The adoption of the resolution was preceded by a lengthy debate during which members of the conference attacked the sincerity of Major General Amos A. Fries. in his attempt to keep the teaching of communism out of the public schools, and recalled his "approved discrimination" at the time he headed the NRA and Constitutional Day parades.
The resolution, as adopted by the conference, is as follows:
Resolution
"Mindful of the strict adherence by the Board of Education of the District of Columbia to the exalted principle of equality of all citizens in its administration of public education,
"RESOLVED, That the Citizens Joint Conference of Civic, Welfare, and Educational Groups affirms its complete confidence in the wisdom, fairness, and integrity of the said Board in the discharge of the important trust committed to it—wherein doth rest the surety of national solidarity—and at the same time affirms its utter lack of confidence in the leadership of the fomented pretended alarm at the alleged insepage of communistic doctrine through public educational channels. Be it further
"RESOLVED. That it is the conviction of the Citizens Joint Conference that the tested wisdom through the years of the Board of Education is an earnest of its ability to meet educational issue or crisis—hence, as in duty bound, its formal expression of complete confidence at this time."

Bonnie was in love with Rodney Schex, a white man, and manager of the plantation owned by her. She was very rich and well educated. Rodney loved her also. Bonnie feared that Rodney might think her to be part negro, because she was born and reared amongst the negroes on her plantation.

KILL DOGS OF WAR, SAYS SELASSIE
Ethiopia's Emperor Asks America's Help In Applying Sanctions
ADDIS ABABA -Emperor Haile Selassie, in a radio broadcast to the United States, Thursday, appealed for the American people's support of the League of Nation's attempt "to kill the dogs of war" by economic and financial strangulation of his Italian foes. The Emperor addressed the United States in his native Amaric as "Our strong, well-loved neighbor and friend." His speech and an English translation were relayed to the United States by the Columbia Broadcasting system at 5 p.m. Wednesday (E.S.T.).
Sees Victory
"Ethiopia has no doubts nor fears regarding the outcome of the war of conquest of which she is the object. Ethiopia will live on. her people proudly free in the hills of their liberty-loving ancestors. For this I thank Almighty God." The Emperor said he received many letters from American writers asking how they could help Ethiopia. He gave them this answer:
"Sanctions will be formally applied within a few days in a sincere attempt to kill the dogs of war. You people of the United States can help.
Doesn't Want Swords
"I ask no one to take the sword against Italy. Methods of the sword and of force are methods of ancient ignorance. People of the world today are capable of united a n d thoughtful action through peaceful channels. "You in America are not members of the League your Government is without obligation to the League covenant. I have no quarrel with this fact. The collectively expressed will of peoples is not to be lightly criticized from without.
Urges Sanctions
"But the time has come, the opportunity is here for the masses of Americans whom I know desire peace to help League efforts towards of conciliation
"The reply to numerous questions received from America is to be found in the exercise of your own conscience. Everyone must decide for him or herself whether he desires to make heavier the pressure towards Italy by associating himself with the economic sanctions recommended by the League of Nations."
"Scottsboro" Judge is Urged for Federal Post
ATHENS, Ala. (A N P) — A petition signed by many local citizens was sent to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Thursday, urging the appointment of James E. Horton, former circuit court judge to the post of federal judge. Judge Horton was defeated for nomination here in 1934, following closely in the wake of his decision setting aside the verdict of guilty against Heywood Patterson in the now famous "Scottsboro case." His defeat at that time was described as an evidence that the district in which he lived was "actuated in selecting its chief judicial official by prejudice."
Co-operative Grows From Nothing to $10,000
GARY, Ind.—One of the most dramatic stories in modern economics is the history of a cooperative in Gary, Ind. which has grown from nothing to the largest Negro-owned store in the United States in less than three years. From their position at the foot of the economic ladder, a small group of Negroes, many of them unemployed began with the formation of a cooperative buying club and by dint of cleaseless effort have created a cooperative grocery store which eclipses by $10,000 the yearly volume of any privately-owned Negro store.

Home Furniture Company Employs Negroes In Responsible Positions
Three colored men in responsible positions are employed by the Home Furniture Company, Seventh and M Streets, Northwest. This company does a large business among colored people, and the policy of the management is to employ colored persons in all departments of the business. F. C. Brewster has been with the company for several years as a solicitor and is one of the most valued employees of the firm. Elmore Williams has made a notable record as a collector, while John Staples is employed as shipping clerk.
SCATHING
(Continued from Page 1)
part of the university, Dr. Morris said:
"I'll sit in the stadium with my gun in hand and prevent any Hows, and team from going on the field unless it has an even chance."
He expressed no little surprise that Howard students were so void of power. Dr. Norris was told that although "pep meetings" were allowed, the university officials provided no place in which they might be held.
Would Let 'Em Raise Hell
When told that the chapel is barred because of new pews, the gymnasium closed because of new floors, and the dining hall unavailable except for dances and plays, the New Jersey alumnus said:
"If I had just one room here, I'd let the students go there, raise hell, and then go to the chapel and pray."
Robert McDaniels, student representative on the board, said: "The bubble has at last bursted. I am out to find the facts, filter the facts and, above all, face the facts. With my bags packed, I am ready to fight for a good team or no team at all."
When called on to speak in defense of his coaching administration, Dr. Charles F. (Charlie) West, head coach, declared: "I admit that I am ashamed to send the team on the field, and I know that I am given credit for not coaching. But what can I do with an entire team equipped for $550, when the average cost per man should be $125. Half of my time is taken up taping injuries and searching for equipment.
"Some players get only a half hour of practice before they dash off to work. I am using three boys who have never been in a football game before in Saturday's game against the strongest team in the CIAA. The team has been crippled because of injuries that I blame on inferior material purchased at cut-rate stores." Though Dr. West attends a coaching school each summer, he has been unable to use the intricate plays of deception because they require a good knowledge of the fundamentals of the game. The men available, he said, do not have this.
Asks Student Aid
Dr. Green, in appealing for student aid, both financial and spiritual, said:
"Make the trustees increase the athletic fee. We should have $5,000 for football if creditable results are to be expected."
Dr. Green also asked for a graduate manager of football and a capable trainer receiving a salary.
Dean William West was accused of having refused a group of enthusiasts who wanted to give a dance on the hill in order to send a cheering section to Atlantic City, Thanksgiving, because of a "university ruling" for bidding pay dances. Yet he permitted the Clarke Hall council to give a "two-bits" dance against the same "university ruling."
New Jersey Association Ired Dr. Norris said that the New Jersey Alumni Association considered the students a bunch of "pimps and gigolos," but the fault seems to hinge around certain members of the administration who have purposely sought to curb student expression. Dr. Norris was told that the only remaining power that the student council had was to give monthly dances, and that power was swinging in the balance. The Hilltop, the campus publication, it was said, is nothing but a record of who spoke and who will speak, and how badly the team was crushed.
JOHNSON
(Continued from Page 9)
W. P. A. officials without any explanation.
A local daily paper reported that Dr. Johnson was recalled because of strenuous objections of Miss Frances Perkins, Secretary of Labor, who argued, the report stated, that Dr. Johnson, being colored, would not be able to get along with the other members of the board, all of whom are white. In a letter to the N. A. A. C. P., Miss Perkins stated that the report that she opposed Mr. Johnson's appointment was "without foundation." Direct inquiry to the office of Harry L. Hopkins, W. P. A. Administrator, was referred to Alfred E. Smith, "specialist in Negro correspondence," who replied that the WPA "has no official information on this matter as it is reported, and is unable to comment on its veracity." Reached over the telephone by the Tribune, Smith again stated that his office had no information other than that Dr. Johnson had been recommended for a position on the board.
Howard Alumni Should Elect Trustees, Says Davidson
Secretary of Association Submits 3-Point Program and Outlines Program Looking Forward to Ultimate Complete Control
Home Furniture Company NOV. Big Savings Now! FURNITURE SALES
Submitting that the alumni of Howard University should, as a fundamental right, have the responsibility of electing trustees and favoring a direct relationship between the present trustees and the General Alumni Association, Eugene Davidson, general alumni secretary of Howard University, presented to the trustees of the institution last week a "three-point program."
The program comprised the following points: (1) Alumni should, as a fundamental right, have the responsibility of electing trustees of their alma mater; (2) indirect control of the destinies of the university is justifiable and expedient only through sustained interest of graduates in Howard and its welfare; (3) organization of alumni is necessary to this sustained interest and to the proof thereof.
Plan Includes Gifts
Developing the program in its chronological order. Mr. Davidson outlined proposed and actual methods in use in effecting a strong organization. The plan includes the dramatization of Howard spirit through gifts to the university; a marble bust of Frederick Douglass for Douglass Memorial Hall as a gift of the General Alumni Association, and stone benches as gifts to the university for the campus from alumni classes, were made a part of his program.
Mr. Davidson suggested that the proper relationship between the university and the alumni should

be a direct bond between the trustees and the General Alumni Association, and scored the idea of the trustee deputizing their function in this connection to any official or department.
Mr. Davidson was recently elected general alumni secretary and editor of the Howard University Alumni Journal, published monthly. The first issue of the journal emphasized the idea that "Howard belongs to its alumni."
Mr. Davidson is a graduate of the Howard Law School and also holds an academic degree from Harvard University. He is the son of the late Shelby J. Davidson, one time general alumni president.

The petition sets forth that the marriage of the couples was merely a juresture and that neither of the marriages have been consummated as neither of them have lived together since the ceremony was performed.
Another development in the matter was the suspension of William from Howard University for one year. The university has a rule that any student marrying while registered at the university, must be dropped from the rolls for one year.
The other parties did not register in school this year, but did matriculate last semester.

38-YEAR-OLD MAN
IS GOOD MOTHER
PHILADELPHIA, (ANP)—Presenting a good housekeeper and mother, Edward Courts, age 28, He washes, scrubs and cooks for five children, and gets them to school on time with the aid of relief authorities. And he won't be happy unless he is allowed to continue his domestic career. At least, so he informed Judge Lewis in domestic court last week. Courts was brought in court by his estranged wife, Isabelle. She has custody of two of their seven children, ages one and five. Asserting that no man can be a good mother, Mrs. Courts asked custody of the other five, ranging from four to eleven. They have been with the father since June of 1934. The husband countered with this statement:
"I do not think Mrs. Courts is able to take care of seven children. When she had them all, I did most of the work. In fact, I learned how from her mistakes. She would give them cold meals and send them to school late. Now the children who are with me have perfect records at school."
Mrs. Marian B. Wilson, president of the 35th Ward Emergency Relief and Welfare Chest, testified in behalf of Courts and neighbors wrote letters assuring the court he is a good "mother"

PEARLIE'S PRATTLE All About Lovely Ladies and Big, Bold, Wonderful Men
Being the wife of a big college president and the mother of several happy children (among them adorable Anna Faith who, when the music students of Howard University were having their picture "took," stood right up with the rest, though she was much too small to be in the school at all) might seem a full time job for some but not Mrs. Mordecia Johnson. Last Tuesday night she donned a rich black velvet dress and hastened to the home of the Rev. and Mrs. G. O. Bullock, 408 T Street. Northwest, where she delivered the installation address for the Interdenomination Council of Ministers' Wives. The spacious well-appointed parlors of Mrs. Bullock's home afforded just the proper setting for the interesting occasion. The members spent most of Monday and all day Tuesday looking over their wardrobes (word had gotten round that the preachers themselves would be present) And—well, you know women they'd die trying to look pretty when they know that a man will be around. Mrs. T. F. Threlkeld, the charming vice-president, finally decided to wear a smart black crepe that brimmed with rhinestone trimming. Mrs. R. Green, Mrs. Bullock, Mrs. J. W. Armstrong, Mrs. H. Randolph, Mrs. Julia West Hamilton all wore black lace dresses. Mrs. R. A. Fairley looked well in black velvet, while Mrs. Mayme Henderson combined black and light satin as did Mrs. M. S. Whitfield. In the "blue brigade" were Mrs. J. M. Ellison, Mrs. I. S. Lee, Mrs. J. L. Holloman and Mrs. J. W. Bundrant. Mrs. R. W. Brooks looked well in rust and Mrs. H. B. Taylor was effectively gowned in brown.
Among the prominent ministers present were: Dean B. J. Mays, of Howard University (Mrs. Mays was with him and very charming in black); R. A. Fairley, H. Randolph, R. Green, G. O. Bullock, W. R. Jones, J. W. Armstrong, R. W. Brooks, H. Threkeleld, H. B. Taylor, M. S. Whitfield'.
Among the other guests were: Mrs. M. F. Thompson, Miss A. Louise Fortune, who presided at the piano, Miss Juanita Bundrata, Mrs. V. B. Jeter and Mrs. E. R. Brown, Mrs. Ellison sang some of her loveliest numbers and Mrs. Edna French thrilled the crowd with her humorous readings. Mrs. Mary Mason Jones, the brilliant toastmistress, smartly gowned in blue, delighted everybody with her wit and good humor. A dainty repast was served, of course. Though 'twas hardly necessary to mention that because most of us known that whenever as many as one preacher "assembles" there's bound to be chicken and salad and whatnot around. The beautifulful fair was finally over. And if you want to know the name of the club that endured a depression and emerged bigger and better than ever before it is the Interdenominational Council of Ministers wives.
Somewhere there's a match for the "sparkle", in the ring or L. B.'s left hand. And some of us know where it is. (In tall Mr Hall's own heart.)
The members of the Epsilon Sigma Iota Sorority had just about broken out of their jackets and sweaters on account of being so puffed up over the appointment of one of their members (Mrs. Gladys T. Peterson) to the Board of Examiners for D.C. Schools and also over the appointment of another (Mrs. Lillian Malon) as Administrative Principal of Stevens School to succeed the late Dr. Mildren Gibbs, when the news came that Miss Ollie Cooper (one of the Sorority's most faithful) had suffered the loss of her mother. So today, the members of the Epsilon Sigma Iota are shrunken and sad in spirit. But they're keeping their tears unshed for the sake of dear, dear Ollie.
Miss Pocahonta Hadmon out to see "March Hares" last Saturday night. (No, she isn't an Indian maiden). On the contrary, with her black eyes aglow and every raven lock in place, you might have thought Miss Harmon was a lass petite from over the sea.
The "Caw! Caw." of a crow came from a Q Street tree the other day and right away a bunch of backwoods' folk from Mississippi felt ever so much at home.
If you're thinking of joining the D.C. teaching staff these days, do try to get Mr. James Lucas for your principal. He has just acquired a brand new bride and with the moon right now so high in his sky, he must be one grand co-worker to have around. (The new Mrs. Lucas is the former Miss Beulah Lee).
When the month-or-so old darling of Mr. and Mrs. William Steen of Nineteenth Street, Northeast, grows up you will never be able to make her believe that there's nothing in a name. When Baby Steen came upon the scene her father named her "Malaku" for his friend and one-time fellow-worker, Dr. Malaku Bayen (relative of Emperor Haile Selassie) of Ethiopia. And now around tiny "Malaku" neck there rests a golden chain. There's a locket on it too, with a picture imprisoned in it of Emperor Haile Selassie and the Empress. And Dr. Bayen gave it to the wee, sweet girl that bears his name.
The "March Hares" have scampered back to Philadelphia. And Washington drama lovers are still wide-eyed and open-mouthed because of the expert performance they witnessed when the Little Playhouse Group made their bow to the Capital at Armstrong Auditorium last Saturday night. Gribble's satiric comedy, "March Hares," show how many amusing mixups can occur in a household where all the occupants are as wild as March Hares. Somebody ought to pin a medal on Mr. J. Newton Hill who so ably directed the play. But then that would make two medals for one family, for certainly his wife, Mrs. Louise C. Hill (stage name Helen C. Joyner) who gave such an excellent characterization of "Mother Janet Rodney" deserved one too. Mr. and Mrs. J. Caswell Smith. Jr. were superb in the roles of "Geoffrey Wareham" and "Janet Rodney" respectively. Dr. Wulbur Strickland (stage name Paul Stevens) made an interesting "Edgar Fuller." Mrs. Grace L. Marshall charmed with her "Claudia Kitts." And a woman who sat one row away said "I'd like to hug the butter (Mr. J. Lacey Doss) for the way he played his part." That was out of the question though. For Mrs. Doss, herself, was right there on the stage acting the part of "Ethel." There was a cook, too. People must eat even though're temperamental, and Mrs. Rose B. Moore enacted the role, while Mr. Moore served as "Mr." Brown. The play was a perfect thing from beginning to end with its bits of wit interspersed at interesting intervals. And if you had to nick out the high spots you'd hardly know where to begin. The only thing you could possibly do and give one to each of the players. The Thespian Study Club (Miss Lillion Tanner, president) presented the players.
Washington's proudest men and smartest women dressed themselves in their finest and thronged the Armstrong Auditorium to its very doors. The club was really so overjoyed at the way everything turned out that they bundled up the Philadelphia players and dropped them down right in the middle of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Turner's parlor, 1716 Second Street Northwest. A sort of acquaintance reception for the players with everybody calling it a treat just to sit a minute in the ever so swanky recreation room where Vivian and "Shyster" say "Hello to their many friends. A bit of refreshment was served of course, and among those partaking were: Mr L. T. Moore, Mrs Rose B. Moore, Dr Wilbur Strickland, Mr. and Mrs. J. N. Hill, Mr. and Mrs. J. Lacey Doss, Mr. and Mrs. Melvin Lofton, Mrs. Carey and Mrs. Grace L. Marshall all of Philadelphia, Mrs. Lilian Malone, Mr. and Mrs. Otto Scruggs, Mr. Louis Lautier, Miss Stella Skinner, Mrs. France Garvin, Mrs. Charlotte Strickland, Dr. and Mrs. Everett Lane, Baltimore, Mrs. Daisy Williams, Tyrona, Pa. Dorothy C. De Leon, Mr. and Mrs. Franklyn Owens, Mrs. Porta Lewis, Mrs. Lucy Chiles Williams, Mrs. Mamie Lewis Williams, Mrs. Ethel Murray, Mrs. Lillian Tanner, Miss Arleen Harris, Mrs. Berrice Edwards, Mr. Charles Craft, Mr. George Handy, Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Savoy, Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Alexander, Mrs. Rosina Howe. Mr. Walter Turner, Mr. Charles Drew.
If Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Lankford (the architect you know) thought their friends were paying no attention when they quietly left Thirteenth and Q Streets, and moved to Irving Street, Northwest, they were wrong. For last Wednesday night fifty or more of 'em dressed themselves up like gypsies, cowboys, monks and what have you and bearing gifts with them crept softly to the Irving Street address and surprised the architect and his wife nearly out of their wits (when they recovered of course they were tickled sick). Even "Rabby" the black cat that looks like a rabbit jumped up on a picture that hung on the wall just to show how pleased he was. Among those participanting were: Mrs. Ada Rose, Mr. and Mrs. Leland Simmons, Dr. and Mrs. Walter Simmons, Prof. and Mrs. L. K. Downing. Mrs. Ingersol Johnson, Mrs. Lucy R. Rutledge, Mr. and

Haile Selassie Costume Wins Halloween Prize
Violinist Presented by Sorority at Howard U.
An interesting Hallowe'en dance was held at Armstrong High School for the Armstrong High Night School classes Thursday evening. The gymnasium was decorated with all the trimmings of a real Hallowe'en affair. The costumes were outstanding and colorful. Each was novel in its make up. For some of the most original costumes, beautiful and useful prizes were awarded. For the most novel costume, that of William Thompson, won great praise. He impersonated Haile Selassie. A white caped edged with gold, a white hat trimmed with red and lined with green and white leggins wrapped with red, completed the outfit which brought him the first prize—an attractive smoking set.
The Alpha Chapter of the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority was hostess to the freshman women of Howard University Sunday evening in the Frazier Hall at which time Prof. Louia Vaughn Jones, violinist of the Music School was presented. The decorations of the reception hall were unusually effective, with ferms, palms, ivy and pink tea roses forming a fitting background for the occasion. Upon entering, the guests were escorted by pledgees of the sorority to a huge ivy-leaf, where they signed their names. Green felt ivy leaves, on which there were gold AKA letters, were tied on each guest's wrist with pink ribbons. After being introduced to the sorors, the freshmen were welcomed by Soror Cox, who in turn introduced Prof. Vaughn Jones.
Prof. Vaughn Jones violin renditions charmed the audience and he received much applause. Soror Eunice Nickens, basilic of Alpha Chapter, greeted the guests also, and introduced the officers of Alpha Chapter. Refreshments in the form of ice cream and cake, served by pledges were in keeping with the color scheme of the, evening, green and pink. Alpha Chapter was honored in having Dean Slowe, the first basilic of Alpha Chapter, present. She told the girls of the noble purposes which the founders held in view in forming the AKA Sorority. This very enjoyable evening was climaxed by the formation of a friendship circle and the singing of the Alpha Chapter song. Sorors present were: Sorors Lorelle Murray, guide of Alpha Chap-

People will probably always like sweets. We are wondering if the homemakers are not going to shift part of the sweets from refined sugar to more fruits, fresh and dried, and unrefined sugars, such as molasses and honey. The market would seem to allow such a shift.

SUGAR IS A FUEL FOOD; SELECT IT FROM FRUITS
Refined Sugar Loses Its Value, Other Than Be ing a Fuel Medium
In studying food intakes, we find many of us have lost our food balance by eating too freely of the one-sided food, sugar. White sugar is a cheap food, only for fuel. In refining it, minerals and vitamins are taken out.
This summer, Dr. Martha Koehne, of the University of Michigan, published a scholarly study of the control of tooth decay in children. She corroborated the old opinion that persons who are susceptible to tooth decay increase the amount of decay by eating more highly sweetened foods.
We in the United States eat about twice as much sugar as the people in Continental Europe. The annual consumption here was 70 pounds per capita in 1904, and in 1932 it was 112 pounds.
Sugar as "Bait"
Dr. Henry C. Sherman, of Columbia University, has ably said that a small amount of sugar is used as a bait in fruits, which give other valuable substances like minerals and vitamins. Many high school girls and some boys are enticed to spend their small amount of lunch money for candy and have none left when they arrive at the milk and salad counter. These girls and boys have lost their food balance, at least at one of the three meals during the day, at an age when food values are most important.
In meal planning, homemakers are using some unrefined molasses or sorgo syrup, one pint of which equals one pound of sugar. This costs a little more, but is an economy, as the homemaker buys some iron and calcium as well as the fuel food. Dried raisins, figs, apricots, peaches and dates are alal well liked. Some of these contain from fifty to seventy-five per cent of sugar when dried, but are good

Household Hints
Equal parts of ammonia and spirits of turpentine will take paint out of clothing. Saturate the spots three or four times, then wash in warm soapsuds and rinse.
Use adhesive tape when turning up the hem of a rubber raincoat. This is especially good when lengthening children's raincoats at the hem. It may be easily ripped when the coats has to be lengthened.
To make frosting adhere to a cake, dust a little flour over the top and you will have no difficulty in making the frosting stick.
Set your alarm clock to notify you when baking period is completed. You may then continue your work in the other part of the house without worry.

MRS. BUS LEE IS GIVEN DIVORCE IN 5 MINUTES
Wife Charges H. U. Law Graduate With Having Second Mate
Chief Justice Alfred A. Wheat, of the District Supreme Court, Monday afternoon granted an abrington Lee, from her husband, solute divorce to Mrs. Bessie Ar-Julius Alfred (Bus) Lee Lee, who is now under an indictment for bigamy, was charged by his wife with having married her in 1932, and then marrying Miss Vashti Norwood, without having received a divorce from the first wife.
No objections to the granting of a divorce were interposed by George E. C. Hayes, counsel for Lee, and the divorce was granted to her within five minutes.
Hayes told the Court that Lee had instituted divorce proceedings in California, and that copies of his papers had been served on wife No. 1, and that she failed to answer them. Lee took it, Hayes said, that her refusal to enter objections, made the divorce automatic, and that Lee then returned to Washington where he married Miss Norwood, popular society woman of Philadelphia and Washington. Lee is a graduate of the Howard Law School and is a member of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity. Miss Arrington was represented in court by L. Melendez King.

Civil Service "Trick" of Barring Negroes Exposed by Tribune
Colored Persons May Take 100 Per Cent Mark and Then Refused Position "EXPERIENCE" USED AS ANOTHER PRETEXT
More light was thrown on the discriminatory tactics employed by the Civil Service Commission when the Tribune received reports that no colored persons were appointed as apprentices in the Government Printing Office, following an examination that was given. Despite the fact that several colored persons took the examination and made high grades, all of the 100 who were appointed were whites.
Lawson A. Moyer, white, chief examiner, when questioned concerning the matter told the Tribune that the procedure was not irregular. For every appointment to be made, the head of the department is sent three names to select from, Moyer said. This, he explained, makes it possible for a person who has an average of 100, to be turned down for one of the other two names.
Last October 28, fourteen persons were put to work in the bindery division of the Printing Office, and three days later were dismissed, charging them with being "incompetent." All if them had made averages in the examination of at least eighty per cent, was also dismissed, had made a grade of 86 in the examination for binders.
Negroes Barred
Another method of barring Negroes from Civil Service posts, as revealed to the Tribune this week, is to write those who have made high grades in the examination, informing them that their papers have been reviewed, revealing that they did not have enough experience, and that their names, of necessity, have to be moved from the eligibility list.
As an example of this type of discrimination, the following letter was written to Mrs. Dorothy V. Herrot, 1937 Thirteenth Street, Northwest, who had taken an examination for bindery operative and had passed with a grade of 81.30 per cent:
"Reference is made to the notice of rating which you received as a result of the examination for bindery operative. You were notified that you have a rating of 81.30 per cent as hand operator and 80.90 per cent as machine operator.
"A review of your papers now indicates that you do not have the required experience for machine operator, and it is regretted that it has been necessary to cancel such eligibility.
"Your name still appears, however, on the register with the rating for hand operator."
This communication was signed by William C. Hull, executive assistant, who said he had written it by the direction of the commission.
Whites Preferred
No colored persons are employed as machine operator in the bindery division. Preference is given to whites, while the colored persons are placed in the hand operator division.
Despite the fact that Mrs. Herriot's highest grade was made in the examination for machine operator, she was notified that she lacked the experience.
Members of the Civil Service Commission are Harry B. Mitchell president; Lucille Foster McMillin and Leonard D. White.

U.S. Navy Doors Closed to Negroes Except As Mess Boys, Says Admiral
CHICAGO — Negro Americans who might desire to serve their country in the U.S. navy can enlist only as messmen (waiters, cooks and valets), according to an official statement of Rear Admiral Adolphus Andrews, chief of the Bureau of Navigation, Navy Department, Washington, D.C. This information is contained in a letter addressed to the Chicago branch of the NAACP in response to persistent inquiries.
In answer to four questions asked by A. G. MacNeal, president of the Chicago branch, Rear Admiral Andrews answered that the policy of the Navy Department is to restrict the enlistment of colored men to the messman branch of the navy, believing that such procedure will best meet the needs and efficiency of the navy; that the present instructions to recruiting stations throughout the country are not to enlist colored men as apprentice seamen.

WPA IS MUM ON JOHNSON RECALL
Mystery Surrounds Appointment and Cancellation of Offer
Despite efforts of the Tribune and the national office of the N. A. A. C. P., to get information on the appointment in the Works Progress Administration, which offered to Dr. James Weldon Johnson, Fisk University professor, and then suddenly recalled after it was accepted, officials in Washington remained mum. Dr. Johnson was recommended for a place on the Labor Advisory Board, and was asked to accept. He replied by stating that he could accept only if he would have real authority, and if the duties would not interfere with the lectures he is giving this fall at New York University. He was telegraphed by W. P. A. officials that his position would carry authority and would not interfere with his lectures, whereupon Dr. Johnson wired acceptance.

A. F. of L. to Educate Against Racial Barrier
At the Atlantic City convention held the early part of October, the Brotherhood of Sleeping-Car Porters led the fight to force the American Federation of Labor definitely to commit itself against all discrimination against Negro workers by its trade unions, according to A. Philip Randolph, national president, who, together with M. P. Webster, first vicepresident, directed the strategy of the attack.
The report of the executive council ended with the statement that "We therefore recommend that all national and international unions and the A. F. of L: conduct a continuous campaign of education to bring to the white workers the necessity for greater unity of the workers in the labor movement, to the end that, all discrimination against Negroes will be razed."
