almost overlooked when giving
this department this information.
On that day, Charlottesville will
be met in what will make the
week one of the busiest for the
sandlot teams anywhere in this

Playing q schedule of this
type makes it necessary for the
Brewers to get the tops" out OF
their pitching staff.
Team Gets Hurting
Flester says the team has been
fortunate in getting just that
from the quartet of four which
comprise the staff and points to
the teams record for the season
as proof. In the Industrial League,
the Brewers lead with four wins
as against two losses, while in the
Valley League, one game has been
won and one lost.
Reggie Brown, southpaw; Bob
Lyons, another lefty, and Frank
Watt and Blackie Adair, right
handlers, compose the Heurich
pitching staff. All have offered
excellent performances on the
whole this season, particularly
when it must be figured each man
has had to work overtime while
pitching in two leagues.

/. L. D. CONTINUES FIGHT FOR
SCOTTSBORO BOYS

The International Labor Defense
which has so successfully defended
Hardiman and Johnson and is now
working for the release of Nc
Duffy as we'll as other class war
prisoners, makes an appeal to all
the people of Minneapolis to rally
to the defense of the Scottsboro
Boys from a death conviction in
the Courts of Alabama, the appeal
of which case is now pending and
will be heard in the United States
Supreme Court some time this
month. The International Labor
Defense has thus far saved the
Scottsboro Boys from the electric
chair and will continue their eff
forts until they are finally re-
leased. In order to prosecute the
appeal now pending it is necessary
to raise funds at once and the /.
L. d. will hold house-to-house
solicitation on Saturday and Sun
day, Feb. 16 and II. All those who
are in sympathy with the nine in
nocent Scottsboro Boys and who
wish to save them from the cleo
trio chair, and fight for the civil
rights of the Negro people are
asked to help to the fullest possible
extent when the Committee calls
upon you. No amount is too little
to contribute to this cause.

Night Clubs
Ordered to Bar
Race Patrons

GRAND JURY ORDERS CAFES
TO BAR CITIZENS

Negro proprietors of two Min
neapolis night clubs, the Southside
Night Club, and the Harlem Break
fast Club, were ordered to cater
to only one race last week. The
order actually amounts to race dis
elimination. Negro patrons form
only small portion of the support
of the two places In question. The
proprietor of one of the places,
Bert Dutch" Thompson, the
Southside, has let it be known that
colored patrons would be refused
admittance at his place. That
there is law against barring per-
sons from any cafe because of race
or color does not seem to bother
the proprietor or those who are re-
sponsible for the discriminatory
order.
Mayor Knew Nothing About 1t
A call at the Mayors office
brought statement from Mayor
cambridge that he knew nothing
about the order. A reporter for
this paper was referred to Chief
Of Police Michael Johannes. Thurs
day the Chief told a reporter that
he gave the order at the sugges-
ton of the Grand Jury. No one
could be found who could tell by
what authority the Grand Jury
could, or did, give such an order.
Citizens Aroused
Although only a small per-
eentage of the colored citizens
patronize the night spots the whole
town is aroused over what most
people consider an unfair, unjusti-
fable, discriminatory order. Citi-
zens plan to lodge direct protests
with authorities. Proprietors of
clubs or cafes who refuse to admit
them will be hailed into court for
violation of the State Civil Rights
Bill, some citizens stated.

The Minnesota Baptist B. Y. p.

held a Lincoln's Banquet on Feb.
IL, at Pilgrim Baptist Church.
A splendid program was rem
dered. An unusually interesting
address on elements of Patriot
ism" was delivered by the Moder-

A number of other talks on Lin

by Mrs. Nina Tolliver, Miss La

This affair was largely attended.
Not only was the audience pre-
sented with a splendid program,
but also a delicious dinner.
This is the first effort of the
Baptist Young People towards
raising funds to send messengers
to the National Baptist S. S. and
B. Y. P. U. Congress to be held
in Dayton, Ohio. Their first eff
fort was a browning success and
will no doubt serve to inspire and
cause greater enthusiasm.
