With Opportunity
Comes Tragedy
Bu Leonard CAUTION

All of the many people who
knew Maurice Rudisell called him
Maurie. Maurie was a first-class
mechanic and had been working
on cars ever since he left high
school. This field in the last few
years has been overcrowded and
Maurie couldn't seem to make a
"go" of 1t. He became discour-
aged but wouldn't give up, and be-
gan to look into other fields for
work. Finally, after five years,
a break came. A chance of life
timel A chance to make money
and travel. Something all young
men long for. The job came to
him through a friend, who is with
the government coast and geodetic
survey. Maurie signed up and last
month he sailed for Kodiak, Alas
ka.
Last week, his mother, Mrs. Dali
sy Rudisell, received a letter from
him telling her how much he was
enjoying the trip. Memorial Day
she received the following radio
gram from Alaska.
1.-TWO crew members of tn e
Coast and Geodetic survey vessel,
Surveyor, Karl Mueller, 81, Cox
vain, Kodiak, Alaska, and Maur-
ice Rudisell, %, firemen, Seattle,
drowned Saturday night at the
entrance to Nikolski, on the inner
harbor of Unniak Island in the
Aleutians.
The two men were in a party
of eight using the ships power
dory to tow ashore another dory,
which had broken down.
Poor visibility confused the par
ty and in searching for the en-
trance in the reef the boats were
hurled ashore in the heavy surf.
Mueller's body was brough /
ashore by heroic efforts of his
companions. Rudisell, apparently
uninjured, was not missed until
shore was reached. Parties search
ed all day yesterday but his body
was not recovered.
He is survived by his mother,
Mrs. Daisy Rudisell, brothers, Will
liam, Henry, Francis and Albert,
and a sister, Julia.

picnic)
We WONDER: Why so many
kids wanted to go and come in
that Missouri truck" to the Club
Kredyeufawn's picnic. Was it be-
cause of that home made Jam
Session?
WE SAW: Marion Gaddy, an out
of town visitor of Miss Dolores
Caldwell, looking all picnic-e-fied
Bernice Williams and that large
q inch) fish she caught; Champ
laying his league technique; Mrs.
Lawrence Alberti active as al
ways; Edison Gordley running af-
ter Sid Albertfs long flys.
WE HEARD: t. Eugene and
Eddie Raye giving us the humor-
Gus side of it. boo Boo" Williams
telling us of the base balls he
would have caught. Nathan Bluett
showing us how noisy he can be;
The boys splashing in the Clacka-
mas river.
WHY: did Rubie Irene Kirk look
so, was Mary Ellen so cheerful
Was Dolores Caldwell so talk-a-tive
Did everyone eat SO much and fail
to take anything home to eat?
Wasn't Monkeyville there Their
boy friends were. Did Tom Alber-
ii try to put the second basemen,
Jessie Mott out of the game by
running over her feet. Is Bill Ban
mister afraid of reptiles? Does Eu-
mis- Mott, that famous soft ball
catcher, know what balls to miss i?
WE NOTICED: everyone had a
grand time and stuff.

SOCIAL NOTES

The meeting held by the Tacoma
last Sunday afternoon at the Allen
A.M.E. church auditorium was one
demonstration long to be remem-
bered by those who were fortunate
enough to be present. After the
usual preliminary devotionals led
by the Rev. w. T. Monroe, then
another selection by the choir, the
president of the branch DIR. E. e.
Gilmore, announced that in order
to give more time to the speaker
the regular business transactions
of the Branch would be taken care
of by the Executive Board. At this
point the president made few
remarks and then presented one
who is not a stranger in Tacoma,
Mr.. Joseph S. Jackson executive
secretary of the Seattle Urban
League and vice-president of the
Seattle N.A.A.C.P.
Mr.. Jackson was received with
vociferous applause as he arose
and went to the rostrum. He at
once launched into his subject. He
quoted from the records, excerpts
from Judge understands summa-
ton of criminal conditions in Sc
attic with regard to the brutal
treatment of police officers of per-
sons under arrest. Mr.. Jackson re-
ferred to the attitude of Colored
citizens, and the attitude of po-
licemen toward them, in 1886. Next
came the case of Berry Lawson.
Mr.. Jackson began at the begin
ming and carried his auditors with
breathless attention on down to
the closing of the case last Fri
day when the case was submitted
to the jury. Mr. jackson mention
ed the several mass meetings of
citizens, both colored and white,
and their eagerness to lend assis-
lance in bringing order and justice
to the case of Berry Lawson. He
dwelt upon how through contact
and mutual interest a better feel
ing had been created in Seattle.
Mr.. Jackson commended the high
ground taken by the prosecuting
lawyer and the fairness of the
Judge in giving out his instruc-
lions to the jury. Even the states
witnesses were commended for
their sense of justice. AS Mr..
Jackson resumed his seat the audi
ence arose as one man to give
such acclaim and applause as is
seldom heard.
Following Mr.. Jacksons address,
Mr.. A. L. Hayes came forward to
make rousing appeal for mem
bership. Committees reported for
the months drive, and altogether
the amount was brought to sixty
dollars with a later report OF
bringing the sum to about one
hundred dollars. 1t will be seen by
this that the Tacoma Branch's
name will be on the honor roll
this year, and will be seen by all
persons who visit the National
Conference at Columbus, Ohio
June % to July 8.
Mrs. Nettie ]. Asberry, chair
man of the Negro History depart
ment of the Washington State
Federation of Colored Women's
Organizations, is requesting all
Federated Women and their
friends. to assemble for the Negro
History exhibit, to be held dur
ing the annual meeting the latter
part of June, at Seattle, all data
of a racial order Historically,
pictures, and books written by
Colored Americans; also any Afri-
can lore or relics.

Bantered by suggestions that her pic

abruptly, wide-eyed.
at wonder if they will. Do you really
think SOP
But her sense of humor came to the
rescue as she said smiling, Well, don't
hurt your eyes looking for pictures Of
me for some time yet.
To Keep Her Name
The theater gave Ruth a royal send
off, Mayor Frank Sutherlin presented
her with a scroll bearing the names of
city officials and all individuals who
could get into the theater lobby and
sign. Theater employees presented her
with a set of airplane luggage. Ruth
was interviewed over XIII Spokane,
and complimented on her converse
tional manner of speaking. The Fox
theater offered a prize for screen
name for Ruth. This prize became a
problem when Paramount announced
that it was quite satisfied with her
own name. The prize was awarded one
of the MANY who had suggested retain
ing her name, offering as part Of her
reason:
a. it is harmonious and well ball
anced, it alliterates, and is short
enough to look well in lights of theater
marques. Ruth is an old Biblical name
with an aura of romance and 1t has not
been overworked. Rogers is a name be-
loved by all. 1t stands for sincerity and
Integrity
a.. as Ruth Rogers has had enough
luck to get this chance using this name,
think it would be lucky to keep It,"
Ruth calmly worked on at the State
theater until the day she was to leave.
