DAMAGES APPEALED
BY. COLORED VOTER
$50, 900 Claim for Refusal at Polls
in Texas Carried to U. s.
Supreme Court.

BY the Associated Press.
L A. Nixon. colored, Of e Paso, yes
terday asked the Supreme Court again
to award him damages because he was
not permitted to participate in Demo-
cratic primaries.
In March. 1927, the Supreme Court.
in suit brought by Nixon. held that
law Of Texas which prohibited Ne
groeS from voting IN Democratic State
primaries was invalid and that Nixon
had a right of action for damages
against the Democratic officials.
The Texas Legislature repealed the
law following the Supreme Court deci-
sion and provided that the Democratic
State Executive Committee could re-
strict the right to vote at primaries TO
white Democrats. Under the act, the
Democratic Executive Committee issued
instructions restricting the primaries to
white Democrats.
Nixon would have the highest court
review suit for $4,000 damages which
he brought against James Condor and
C. H. Kolle, election judges of the ninth
precinct, at FL Paso. for refusing. on
July %, 1928. to supply him with a
ballot and permit him to vote in Dem
ocratic primaries held that day.
The Federal District Court dismissed
the suit, holding that the action was
that OF a political party ana not OF the
State. The Fifth Circuit Court Of APP
peals held that the rights conferred
in the fourteenth and fifteenth amend
mentS applied to State action and not
to action by political organizations {:
that Texas had merely recognized the
existing right of the Democratic State
Executive Committee to Ak the quail
fications Of its members, and that the
election officials who refused to permit
Nixon to vote at the Democratic pri-
maries were appointed by the Demo-
cratic Committee and were not State
officers.

CITIZENS SE { K
SCHOOL FUND

Following lively discussion
at a meeting Of the Burroughs

Burroughs School last night, it
was decided that a committee
from the organization would ap-
pear before the Senate committee
today to request that an item Of
$4,000 which has been included
in the District appropriation bill
for added clasSrooms in the Wood
ridge School, be withheld until a
survey has been made of the
Northeast section school needs.
The item has been passed by
the House.
1t was explained at last nights
gathering that if the Woodbridge
School is enlarged, the new jun
ior high school, which is planned
for that section. will be neglected
and probably abandoned and that
children living within the iuriS-

Amelia Earhart wears a para

And, although she was married

'tnam, publisher, she still signs
, r name Amelia Earhart."
And she's a big hit with news
paper women. Last night, for
instance, at the annual banquet
and entertainment of the Wom-
ems Press Club, she forgot that
she was a famous aviatrix, a
bride of two dayS-and she for
got her dignity and amused
everyone very much.
Spectators were seated in long
rows while members of the club
were satirizing ladies high in So
cial and political circles in the
Capital. Miss Earhart is quite
tall. When anyone passed in front
of her, she would pretend that
she was about twice as tall, and
draw her knees almost up ITO her
shoulders to insure them room
for passing.
The wives of all Cabinet mem
berS were present, as were rep
resentatives of other social, po.
litical and diplomatic groups.
But Miss Earhart IS very much
q bride, just the same.
At about 1870 she was called

Will Not Make Radical Decrease
in Hitting; More Efficient
Pitching Expected

New York, Feb. 4..tR-Major
league batsrnen who slugged 1856
I balls over the fences or into the
bleachers last season, viii have q new
and "deader" ball to swing at this
year.
Both the National and American
Leagues have decided that the home
run barrage has gone far enough and
a change in the balls physical aspects
Is the result.
In the National League. the ball
will have a thicker cover and heavier
stitches. In the American League.
the cover will be the same but the
stitches will be heavier.
Not only will these changes take
some of the liveliness out Of the ball,
major league officials confidently ex-
pect, but also will give the pitchers a
better grip on the ball and thereby
increase their effectiveness.
The pitchers. hampered continu-
ouSly by all sorts Of restrictions, have
complained for several years the
smoothness Of the balls cover has
made it extremely difficult to control.
The thicker stitches planned on the
1881 ball should 60 far toward solv-
ing that difficulty.
The changes are not drastic enough
for any radical decrease In hitting.
Officials of both leagues do believe,
however, that the changed ball will
result In greater pitching efficiency,
a decrease in the number Of trick"
home runs hit and a slump in the
inflated batting averages Of the last
few years.
