HOWARD COLLEGE GLEEI CLUB WELL RECEIVEDI AT SUNDAY CONCERT

The Howard College Glee club, said to be. one of the finest the institution has ever produced, was heard by a large audience Sunday afternoon at the Lyric theatre in number of se- lections that were unusually well rendered. The club has a wealth of talent, and it's director, Gladstone Jackson, has given 1t thorough de- velopment.
 MT. Jackson was the tenor soloist, his number on the program being Pale Moon," an Indian love song, by F. K. Logan. It was beautifully rem dered and the audience received it appreciatively.
 City Commissioner William L. Har- rison. the speaker. was introduced by George MeCleery as "the man who is usually on the right side" MT. Har- rison spoke on the value of music in the development of community, and then dwelt upon the need for an au- ditorium to seat the crowds that at tend such cultural entertainments. He said he was in favor of a large auditorium and was in favor of build ing 1t "as speedily as is consistent with sound practice"
 Absence of several members of the orchestra prevented the usual or chestra program. Director O. Gordon Erickson announced that several of the musicians were out of town, and 1t had proved impossible for them to return in time for the concert. | This is the first time in the history of the Birmingham Music association that the orchestral program has not 1 been given as announced.

March i, of the new John Herbert Phillips High school on Eighth ave nue. Even the opening of this school will not relieve completely the over taxed conditions of the high schools, It is said.
 The Woodlawn High school build ing was completed and formally opened last February. It was erected to accommodate 600 students. but 300 children enrolled for the opening. Since that time the number has grown to 1900. Six temporary rooms have been built and several cottages pressed into use for the students.

 Central High school will receive 371 students as result of the mid year promotions from the grammar Schools. Of this number, 194 are boys and TIT girls. Students of Central are now attending classes in the medical college building. The cong pletion of the John Herbert Phillips school building will partially re- lieve the congestion at Central.

 Ensley at the midterm, 90 are boys and 96 girls.

AUTOMOBILE CLUB. WILL THRESH OUT PROBLEMS MONDAY
Meeting Called to Discuss Possible CommerCiaIization of Club and Finan-
 Cial Condition

Final disposition of the controversy in the Birmingham Automobile club over the management and policies of the organizatiGn is expected Monday night when members meet in the ball room of the Tutwiler hotel to discuss the financial condition of the club and the possible commereialization of the body to the detriment of any of it's members. The meeting Monday night was set by Charles G. Davis, president of the club, at the request of a committee of club members.
 The fight expected to be ended Monday night began January IS when a committee of members of the club appeared before the board of diree- tors of the body to protest against the organization selling automobile insurance to it's members, the com mittee contending that such action. worked hardship on the insurance men who belong tC the club and set precedent for the club to enter other commercial activities.
 The plan of the officers and direc- tors of the club is to sell automobile insurance to it's members at rate lower than agents can sell it and thereby increase the membership of the body Mir. Davis, president of the cluD, cOnlenuS that the lnduBuTdllOH of the insurance feature into the club will increase it's membership unth at least 75 per cent of the automobile owners in the city and county belong to it.
 The finances of the club will come in for consideration at the meeting, it is said. Members Of the committee callin6 for the meeting express the opinion that the club has an income of approximately $25,000. P. Y. Whit man, treasurer of the organization, placed the income of the club at $l2,000 year. MT. Davis, as president of the club, receives salary of s250 a month. According to Mir. Whitman the income of the club for number of months has been insufficient to meet the expenses of the organiza- tion and the president has received no salary.
 Members of the committee asking for the meeting state that within a period Of eight months the member ship of the club has decreased by 900 and that the majority of the club members at the present time live in the suburban and outlying districts. MT. Davis denies this state ment,
