montreal.
Partlow, who lives in Philadel-
phia, hurled II games last year for
the Stars, winning nine and losing
four. His .692 average was the
second best in the Negro National
League.
He was purchased by the Stars
from the Homestead Grays and has
seen five years service In the col
ored circuit. A war veteran, he
became a member Of the Stars
hurting corps after service in the
Army during 1914,
Contract Disclosed
Partlow was scheduled to report
to the Montreal Royals last We'd
nesday. Terms Of the contract
which he holds with the Royals
were not disclosed.
Partlow, who recorded SO strike
outs in 1915, probably attracted
the attention Of Branch Hickey,
head of the parent Brooklyn Club,
last year when he pitched In an
exhibition game at Ebbets Field.
Partlow hurled one Of two con-
tests there between the National
League All-Stars and Negro Ma
tional League Stars.
Partlow left Philadelphia last
Monday to report to Hickey in

Brooklyn for instructions in regard
to his Montreal trip, his wife said
in Philadelphia, Tuesday.
Mrs. Partlow also said that both
Roy and she are really thrilled"
over her husbands opportunity to
play in organized baseball.
Refuses Mexican League
She added that Roy had rejected
a "$6O0-a-month" offer from Jorge
Pasquel to jump to the Mexican
League this season. Previous ex-
perience with baseball south-of-the-
border convinced Partlow that he
wanted no part Of the Mexican cir
cult adventure, she explained.
Partlow twirled for Puerto Rico
last winter and has also pitched
for teams in Mexico, Cuba and
South America. Pasquel endeav-
ored to sign him for his Torreon
club in the Mexican League, Mrs.
Partlow said.
Born and educated in Cincin-
natl, Partlow played with the Gin
cinnati Tigers prior to joining the
Homestead Grays. He married the
former Dorothy Nelson, Of Phila-
delphia, in November, 1899, and
since then the PartlOwS have made
their home in that city.

department is back on the job after
a six months stay at Glen Lake. -.
Swell people. Jackie Burke is

trainer, is in charge of Jackie
Burke. e. And looks it. . . Reports
have it that both Louis and Conn
look like a couple of shopworn
fighters. And for that reason,
most of the out-of-town sports

high hopes in announcing a heavy

This space-fller has been a
BILLY COLBERT booster for
many years, and now that he has
been given this one big chance to
really show his stuff, I'm sure that
at this time next year when every
body makes book, it will be to
everyone's gain. Thefe are
many nice things that can be said
about roly-poly Colbert, the new
boxing promoter from St. Paul. =.
Billy is what you call the poor
mans boxing promoter. Not
having any too much cash until
the past couple of seasons, Billy
is now ready to make capital with
out too much outside help. The
little fellow around the gym, or
Johnny or Jim at the cigar store
are all cheerin' for Billy to make
good. He is honest, and as
said, his best friends are the little
people. D.. Now given a chance to
meet the big names of the Twin
Cities. E. He'll do a good job there,
too. . Boxing has been his life,
;. And although he is a profess
sional at heart I doubt very much
if Billy has missed more than a
handful of amateur boxing shows
in both cities during the past year

NAACP PRESSES FOR
PASSAGE OF ANTI
LYNCHING BILL

NEW YORK, August 1st-In a
telegram to 263 members of the
House of Representatives, the Ma
tional Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People through
its secretary, Walter White, ur-
ged congressman to sign Dis
charge Petition No. 3 which would
bring the anti-lynching bill, HR
1893, to the floor of the House
for consideration. The telegram
read as follows.
"Cold-blooded lynching of four
Negroes, one a veteran and two
others women, in Monroe, Georgia
July 26th, coupled with public by
Major w. E. Spence, chief of Ga.
bureau of investigation, that he
cannot cope with the situation,
makes imperative Congress i'm
mediately enact anti-lynching bill.
HR 1893 was introduced early
in this session of Congress but has
been stymied in the Rules Com
mittee of the House which pre-
vented it from being brought to
the floor for consideration and
debate. In order to get it out of
the Rules Committee, it is neces-
sary to have signatures of 218 re-
representatives. on the Discharge
Petition. Up to July 10Th the pc
tition lacked 100 signatures.

The Halo Hat is one of the most
important and attractive summer

possible for you to reveal your
latest hairdo and yet give your
head a well dressed cool appear

your face it can do marvellous
things for you, adding a serenity
and calmness to your features
that otherwise would not be there.
The Halo Hat comes in a wide
variety of colors and materials.
1t comes in plaids, checks. stripes
and some are in braids, some are
just thin bands, some are made of
metals and one of the most popu
