HON. W. H. LEWIS SPEAKER
BALTIMORE, Md., Dec. 8.—What
promises to be one of the most impor
tant meetings in the history of Negro
College life will be held at Baltimore,
Maryland, by the Alpha Phi Alpha
Fraternity when it meets in annual
convention during the days, December
27th to 31st, 1921, inclusive. With
something over 2,500 graduates and
undergraduate members of the lead
ing American colleges and universi
ties, over 600 of whom will come as
representatives from the thirty-six
chapters located throughout the Unit
ed States, every indication assures a
meeting which will mark an epoch
both in Negro college fraternity life
and in the history of the Negro youth
in the American colleges.
One of the unique steps forw'ard to
be made by the Alpha Phi Alpha Mil
be the pilgrimage to the home of
Frederick Douglass, in Anacostia, D.
C., on December 28th, the second day
of the convention. Unusual interest
has been evinced in the pilgrimage as
it is the first time in history that an
event of this k"nd has been held with
a Negro as the historical character to
be honored. Upon this occasion, Dean
George W. Cook, of Howard Univer
sity, a personal friend of Mr. Doug
lass, will make an address. Mrs. Mary
B. Talbert, President of the Frederick
Douglass Memorial and Historical As
sociation; Miss Nannie H. Burroughs;
Mrs. Delia Pendleton, and others of
the Association will act as hostesses.
“The pilgrimage,” National President,
Simeon S. Booker, of Baltimore, says,
“marks an epoch in the history of Ne
gro life in America and it indicates a
new day. It is an unusual event" for
it is the first time that a group of col
lege men have ever paid honor to one
of our statesmen. T^iis one event will
inspire hundreds of boys and girls to
read the life of this distinguished,
Marylander, and it will also c&ll to the
attention and focus the interest of 14 [
million American citizens upon thei
Seer, Orator, and Statesman, Freder
ick Douglass.”
A most important feature of the
convention will be the Public Session
to be held in Baltimore in the Shaton
Baptist Churcb, Thursday evening,
December 29th, ut eight o’clock, at
which time Honorable William H.
Lewis of Boston, Mass., formerly As
d-tant Attorney General of the Unit
ed States, will speak on the subject
“Leadership and Life.” The general |
theme of the public session will be
“Leadership,” and its relation to Al
pha Phi Alpha will he discussed under
the subjects “Ideals of Alpha Phi Al
pha” by a member of the local chap-:
ter, and “Alpha Phi Alpha’s Task” by
the National President, Simeon S.
Booker. |
According to the National .Secre
tary, Norman L. McGhee of Washing
ton, D. C., assurances have come not;
only from the 700 or more members
of the Alpha'Phi Alpha Fraternity re
siding in the nearby cities, Boston,
Piovidence, New Haven, New York,
Philrdelphia, Atlantic City, Pittsburg,
Cleveland, Wilmington, Norfolk, Rich
mond and Washington, but from the
early 2,000 other members through
„ ♦. the United States, giving evidence
^ they will be present at the 14th
\ \1 Convenion of the Fraternity.
1. especially to be expected in
vie. "r. he fact that the Chairman of
the . ad Passenger Associations
of the juntry have granted a reduc
tion of one and one-half fare on the
certificate plan to the members of the
Fraternity and their families attend
ing the convention at Baltimore. Many
of the Fraternity men plan to bring
members of their families with them
as the period over which the reduced
rate extends allows ample time for a
visit both to Baltimore and to Wash
ington, the National Capital.
Of the various social events to be
held during the period the convention
is in session at Baltimore, the official
program of the Fraternity includes a
smoker and symposium to be held at
the Y. M. C. A., the evening of the
opening day; on Tuesday, when the
delegates go to Washington for the
pilgrimage, the Beta chapter will give
an informal dance at the Dunbar High
School; and on Friday evening the an
nuai formal dance will be given at St.
Mary’s Hall, Baltimore; and on Satur
day evening, December 31st, 1921, the
closing event of the convention will
be the annual Fraternity banquet to
be given at the Drunid Hill Avenue
Branch Y. M. C. A.
Dr. J. H. Hilburn, President of the
Delt-Lambda Chapter, which will be
the host of the convention, has as
sured the National officers of the Fra
ternity that the City of Baltimore i»
ready to extend a most cordal wel
come o the members of the Alpha Phi
Alpha Fraternity upon their arrival
and will spare no effort in seeing to
their comfort during their stay. The
headquarters of the 14th Annual Con
vention will be at 1619 Druid Avenue

LOS ANGELES, Cal., Dec. 8.—Two
millionaire Japanese merchants, J.
Sano and Mukeado, addressed the di
rectors and associates of the Western
Trading Corporation, dealers in silks
and raw furs. The Japanese gentle
men were in the United States to es
tablish trade relations and to consum
mate some deals previously enfered
into. They spoke to the membersr oi
the corporation upon the invitation 01
its president.
i Mr. Sano in his speech dwelt a
some length on the so-called rac
problem, culling attention, however, ti
the fact that 70 per cent of the peo
pies of the earth were dark-skinne'
and that in the regeneration of the
peoples of color Japan was doing all
in her power to play her. part.
lie declared that the Oriental peo
pie desire the c6-operation of the oth
er Colored races and that the Uni
versity of Japan, situated at Tokio
ami other Japanese institutions, ar
desirous of trailing students with any
Race institution in the country in ol
der that the two races may becom
better acquainted with each other.
Religion, according to him, has
failed to bring any races together, and
the only solutions are close connection
in foreign trade and social relations
for to know a man means to like him.
After traveling throughout the

(Special to the Monitor)
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Dec. 8.
Lincoln, showed itself better that
Howard on a muddy field Thankagiv
ing Day. Despite the fact that mu<
covered the playing field three inche
deep, the game afforded the 20,00*
spectators thrills aplenty and was no
decided until the last whistle blew.
Most of the play was in Lincoli
teiritory, Howard getting within tel
yards of scoring distajr.ee on six dif
ferent occasions. Each time poo
judgment gave Lincoln the ball.
First IV-riod
The first thrill came early in th1
first period. Captain Law drew th
Lincoln fans to their feet by taking
forward pass thrown by Payne in mid
field'and landing the ball on How
ard’s twenty yard line. Two attempt
to repeat the play failed. Then Law
himself threw a beauty to Skinke
who dodged across the goal line fo
Lincoln’s first score against Howar*
since 1918. Score: Lincoln 6, How
ard 0.
Howard’s Turn in Second Period
The teams changed goals giving
Howard players a chance at the dry
end of the field. Twice Howard backet
slipped and skidded with the ball t
Lincoln’s ten yard mark only to b'
.urned back.
The third time Wilson of Lincoli
was guilty of slugging and put out o
the game. His team was penalizet
half the distance to the goal and How
ard put the ball in play on Lincoln’
twenty-five yard mark. Howar
backed, using the deceptive formatiol
that fooled Lincoln last year an*
made its first down on Lincoln’s eigh
ard line.
In this play the half-backs crouche*
facing each other ten yards behin*
the line of scrimage the full-back be
iind in regular position facing th
line. The ball is snapped to the quat
ter-back and each of these three back
dive into the line at three differen
points. Any one of them may tak
the ball from the quarter-back or th
quarter-back, after making a bluff a
passing the ball may run with the ba!
himself.
At this point a new man was seq
by Coach Shelbum to stop the How
ard rush. In the first play he jump
ed on top of~a~»pile of players afte
play was stopped and as a penalty th
ball was moved to Lincoln’s one yar*
line. Lincoln Held here like a stone

SHAW WINS OVER
ST. AUGUSTINE, 14-0
RALEIGH, N. C., Dec. 9.—The bad
ly crippled team representing Shaw
Uni. entered the annual Thanksgiv
ing game with St. Augustine School
with six of the regular varsity play
ers out of the game. Three were out
because of injuries and three were out
because of the “one year” rule of the
North Carolina Intercollegiate Athlet
ic Association. Shaw entered the
game full of fight and at no time dur
ing the four periods was the result in
doubt. In five minutes after the ball
was put in play Shaw had the ball
under her opponents goal for the first
touchdown, and before the period was
up she had registered another and as
many goals. From that time until the
end of the game Shaw played a defen
sive game with the ball in her oppon
ents territory most of the time. Dur
ug the third quarter St. Augustine in
tercepted one of Shaw’s forward pass
's and ran CO yards for a touchdown,
their only score of the day. The en
tile team representing St. Augustine
played well, while Cook, Ligon and
the Williams twins were the star1
players for Shaw. During the fourth
juarter two men apparently had R.
Williams, who was carrying the ball,
but the fleeted back loosed himself
from them and made 25 yards before
being tackled. The game was played
under a clear sky and weather that
was ideal. Score by periods:

FOUGHT OFF BANDITS
SINGLE HANDED
(By The Associated Negro Press.)
WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 9.—
Postmaster General Hays recently
sent a check for $500.00 to Walter
Ambrose, the Colored mail messenger
at Lake Charles, La., who, single
handed, fought off mail bandits and in
doing so was shot through the stom
ach. Despite his wounds the plucky
mail messenger pursued the robbers
some distance, firing four shots at
them and then delivered the mail to
the train intact.
The law does not provide for the re
ward unless there is a capture, arrest
and conviction of the robber, but in
recognition of special and meritorious
services rendered and information fur
nished that may be of material assist
ance in the apprehension and convic
tion of the offenders, Postmaster
General Hays has found a way to
tender this amount and he expresses
regret that a larger amount cannot be

HOWARD GETS THE
' HIGHEST RECOGHITIOH
Is Listed Among 59 Leading Colleges
in Five States. Recognition Gives
it Highest Prestige in Academics
S.WATHMORE COLLEGE, Pa.,
Dec. 9.—At the thirty-fifth annual
convention of the Association of Col
leges and Preparatory Schools of the
Middle Atlantic States and Marryland
held at Swathmore College, Friday,
November 25 announcement was made
by the Commission on the Accrediting
of Higher Institutions, composed of
some of the foremost educators in
America, of the approved list of col
leges and universities in New York,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware,
Maryland and the District of Colum
bia. Fifty-nine of the Middle State
colleges and universities were placed
on the list, including Howard Univer
sity at Washington, D. C.
The educational standards used to
judge the colleges contained in brief, a
careful computation of the curricula,
teaching staff and finances of each
college. It took into consideration
only those institutions having at least
eight professors giving their entire
time to instruction. It also took into
consideration the qualifications and
training of the teaching staff. A col
lege year of at least thirty-four weeks
of academic work is required and the
amount of work to be done by one in
structor figured largely. The curric
ulum was considered as to its breadth
of study and concentation and also its
relation to the resources of the col
lege. The salaries of instructors and
entrance requirements for students
were also studied in reaching the
standard of rating.
The announcement of the new rat
ig of Howard University was given by
President J. Stanley Durkee, who at
tended the recent convention of the
Association of Colleges and Second
ary Schools of the Middle States and
Maryland, in the University Chapel,
Wednesday, November 30, and was re
ceived with much applause and cheer
ing by the officers, faculty and stu
dent body. After the announcement,
President Durkee asked the Deans of
the several academic departments to
speak on “The Effect of the New Rat
ing on Scholarship at Howard Univer
sity”; “The Effect of the Rating on
the Secondary Schools Sending Stu
dents to Howard University”; and
“Tile Effect of the Rating on Racial
Cooperation.” The subjects were dis
cussed by Dean D. W. Woodard of the
School of Liberal Arts; Dean D. O. W.
Holmes, of the School of Education;
and Dean Kelly Miller, of the Junior
College, respectively.
The need of an accredited list of
Colored secondary schools was
brought out, and Dean Holmes spoke
of the measures being taken by the
Registrar’s office to make up such a
list. Another point stressed was that
this new honor and opportunity brings
new responsibilities and that each stu
dent of Howard must consider it his
or her duty to keep up with the ad
vance of the University.
