LuGuordid Makes
Promise Of New
Deal in HorIe m

NEW YORK. (C)-Alarmed by
his own committee laying much
of the blame for the Harlem riot
which destroyed half million in
plate glass alone, at the feet of
the city itself, Mayor LaGuardia
made rash promises to the COM
mittee in private conference at
City Hall Tuesday afternoon, it is
said. The committee had accused
the mayor of supressing the re-
port, which he had had since April
8.
The mayor promised almost
everything to Harlem but the City
Hall, if they would only not start
a new riot. He told the police
to go easy in Harlem; he raised
the pay Of city subway porters,
and other subway workers among
whom were many colored; he ap-.
pointed Rev. John H. Johnson, one
of the leaders of the 125th street
picketing several months ago, to
a post on the relief set-up; he ap-
pointed colored doctor as health
officer in Harlem; and he said
two new schools are being built,
new park development with swim
ming pool is being opened soon,
and Harlem hospital is being en-
larged. Then the mayor, figura-
lively speaking, looked around,
rubbed his hands together, and
asked what else do you want. APP
parently the committee, headed by
DR.. Charles II. Roberts, was salts
fled for the present.

No Democratic
Delegate From
State Of Illinois

PHILADELPHIA. CO. = Final
tabulation of colored delegates to
the Democratic National Conven-
ton ,as made by Edgar G.. Brown,
special press representative, show
ed no colored delegate or alternate
from Illinois. This looked bad
for Congressman Mitchell of Chi
cago, and was the reason why he
was not allowed to second the
nomination of President Roosevelt,
it is said. If he was so hot, he
should have been delegate. The
Depriest crowd is laughing over
the incident, claiming it showed
up Mitchell. Harlem was repre-
sented by Harry Austin from Her
bert Bruce's 21st district. The
largest delegation was from West
Virginia, with 6; Pennsylvania
and Kansas tied with 3 each; Cali
fornia sent 2, and Indiana, Iowa,
Michigan, Missouri, Kentucky,
Minnesota and Massachusetts sent

OWNERSHIP OF
 THOMAS CLUBS OPTION PROBED
Meeting Tonight May Set 1 tie Most Recent City l League Dispute
BY JOHN A. CLUNEY

Prior to the announcement of the opening day schedule for Sunday, May 10th, the City Amateur League officials and managers are a bit an- xious to find out who will play for the North End Thomas club, the legal owner of its franchise and the truth or falsity of the report that a group of North End boys are to be given the works" in favor of the Watertown Princetons who were de- nied admission to the league last week.
 Mysterious
 The plot, (for 1t has reached such proportions) seems to have been well laid and will be unraveled, it is expected, at meeting tonight in the home of James Carideo, a mem- Der of the family that originally sponsored the North End Thomas club, which was named for the late Tommy Carideo. President Harry x. Cashin of the City Amateur League, after listening to charges brought by Frank Conroy last night that the north end boys who have played for the Thomas club last season (and are willing to play again), were to be busted in favor of the Princetons, who will move in bag and baggage as the North End Thomas club entry in this seasons City Amateur League race, will be at tonight's meeting when the North End group decides what's what and why, the main objective being to find out what individual or group owns the N. E. T. club fran chise and after that very salient point is established, decide on what ball players will wear the clubs uni forms, for after all, the guy or group that pays the freight is en- titled to choice, whether it's ball players or balloons.
 More Mystery
 An investigating committee will again try to find out the cellar in which the famous Genlot Trophy is reposing, then have it shined and presented to the Sacred Hearts, who have won the city championship three times to gain permanent pos- session of it.
 Freddy Jacovino who represented and voted for the Thomas club at the City Amateur League meeting when officers for the year were elected is said to have 8 letter signed by James Carideo, designat- ing him league representative for the current season. That was in hand before the Watertown Prince tons were let down gently in regard to spot in the circuit this year.
 Now 1t seems there is Ideal" pending the outcome of ownership of the club franchise, which some claim is the property of a group, not any one individual. President Cashin is said to have Carideo's letter okaying Jacavino in his pos- session and will probably ask him to explain it tonight.
 Franchise Men
 Incidentally, committee consist ing of Ray Tram, new manager of the Sacred Hearts, Matt Dunphy, Danny Kerwin and Rudy Bercier was named to investigate club fran chises in general, their legal own CTS, and the power of the league to act upon them in the event of such situation as is now before the league for settlement.
 Nearly all major details, aside from the schedule of games for opening day have been settled, the opponents to be named next week.
