BY PAUL PREP

Coach Elwood A. Geiges has q won
derful defensive playing team represent
ing Frankford High School on the grid
iron this season, and the remaining
contenders for the Interscholastic
League title for 1919 on the Pioneers
schedule are going to have lots of
trouble showing to advantage over this
eleven. The Franktord youths, com
paratively light, are full of fight and
grit; it is a game team, and plays
hard from the opening whistle until
the finish of the fray.
With four of its regular and star men
on the side lines yesterday afternoon,
Frankford High put UP a stubborn
battle against Northeast High School
in Gimbel cup contest. The Red and
Black won out, 2 to 0, and it really
was lucky victory for the Archives.
After holding Northeast for downs
twice in the second period. the Red and
Black was credited with a safety when
Anderson, fullback, fumbled pass from
Center Sidebotham behind his own goal
line, and Wells fell on the ball.
Frankford again showed its grit,
gameness and wonderful defensiveness
in the fourth period. when the Pioneers
once more held Northeast for downs
with the Red and Black having the ball
only few feet from the goal line. Both
teams were handicapped by the soft
sod and wetDess of the field. Several

the players heads were pushed com
pletely under water in shallow pools
that spotted the gridiron.
Episcopal Loses Once More
Edwin J. Pollock took an afternoon
off from Franklin Field, saw the Chest
nut Hill team wallop Episcopal Acad
emy, and this is what Friend Eddie
has to spell:
Things are running poorly for
Charley McCarty, the Episcopal Acad
emy tutor. His eleven lost its third
game of the season yesterday at the
Strawbridge and Clothier Field when
they bowed to the supremacy of the
Chestnut Hill team, 90. From the
way the Churchmen played, they de
served a lacing by much larger score.
Stewart Valentine and Alvan Car
rigan were the big guns of the Killers
attack. Valentine, in particular
proved himself snappy little runner
He sprinted back well with punts and
he ran off tackle and around the ends
for good gains. Carrigan also tore off
| large bits of ground for Fred Dickens
lads Carrigan is one of those sturdy
players who rips his way through oppo-
sition by strength more than clever
ness. He is very rugged, young
man.
Episcopal was under the direction
| of young Caypin, a former Peddie
player, who apparently knows as much
about football as chess player. His
| judgment of plays was wierd. His
worse offense came when he caught q
punt almost ON his own goal line, in
stead of allowing the ball to pass over
the line.
Lansdowne Rolls Up ia Points
Fifteen scholastic, prep and academic
games were played yesterday in Phila :
delphia and vicinity. Lansdowne High
piled up the highest score of the day,
and the record total of points made or

it rode over Swarthmore Prep to the
overwhelming tune Of ia TO o. Episco-
pal, Friends Central, Germantown
\ Academy and Penn Charter, all teams
Of the Interacadenaic League, each were
defeated in different semes.

BELMONT RACES TODAY
Fans Eager TO See Records Smashed
In Motorcycle Starts

With prospects of fine weather and
fast track, the motorcycle races, held
under the auspices of the NJ. and r. A.
A., will take place at the Belmont
course, Narberth, Pa, this afternoon.
Some of the best riders in the country
will compete, and the races should be
the best seen in many a year,
Elimination trials were held yester
day, and all the second rate riders were
eradicated. In order to be eligible the
riders were forced to circle the one
mile track in fifty three seconds. Con
sidering the fact that about a large
portion of the track was muddy, it car
readily be seen that the survivors were
far above the average. In fact, Gene
Walker circled the track in forty seven
seconds fat. So II looks as though the
| track record, forty sever and two fiftbs
seconds. viii be knocked higher than !
kite today.

ALL IS QUIET ON THE

THE WINDY CITY
(By- Associated Negro Press)

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug. 11.-Chicago is
getting back to normal conditions fol.
lowing week of riot which brought
disaster and turmoil to the worlds
greatest city of opportunity Soldiers
and policemen are on guard in the riot
territory but have little or nothing to
do Citizens of both races go with
out molestation into the territory
which week ago had real dead line.
Thursday, nine thousand Colored
workmen returned 10 their labors at
the various stock yards on the South
Side, where they were unmolested by
the whites. The yards and territory
surrounding it We're strongly guarded
by soldiers and policemen. Union lab
orers protested against tile armed
guards being stationed in their midst
and several thousand white workmen
of the stock yards staged strike"
They claim there is no "color" propo-
sition in what they did, but protested
against armed guards. Union men.
claim that they have no objections
to Colored people working in the
yards. 1t is believed that the whole
matter will be adjusted within very
short time.
Immediately following the serious
days of the riot, it became apparent
that many people were suffering from
lack of food. This brought an idea
to Virgil L. Williams, proprietor of the
Royal Gardens, and he took the mat.
ter up with Aldermen Anderson and
Jackson. Relief stations were opened
in several parts of the riot-torn dis.
trict and in the effort to provide for
the hundreds, the Urban League. the
Y. M. C. A. and Red Cross co-operated
in the fullest way. Several thousand
have been provided with food.

FACING
SERIOUS PROBLEM
OF HOUSING BLACKS
(By Associated Negro Pressl

DETROIT, Mich, Aug. 1.-THE
housing of Negroes in Detroit has be
come a serious problem. according to
John G. Dancy. Jr. director of the
Detroit Urban League. Several hun
dred Negroes now in the city are with
out homes and it is necessary for them
to sleep in the parks, in barns, stores,
or any place where room may be
found for them.
The Colored housing problem, says
Mr. Dancy. is far more complicated
than that confronting the white resi-
dents of the city because the latter
have the opportunity of expanding in
any direction they may choose. The
Negro, on the other hand, is confined
to certain districts already oyercrowd-
ed. Rents in these districts have
reached an abnormal height
