The Tus- kegee singers will render a program of megro spirituals and plantation melodies. This program will include such numbers as “Steal Away to Jesus,” “Deep River,” Going Home' 'and“S wing Low, Sweet Chariot.” These Tuskegee | singers enjoy a wide reputation for the excellence of their voices and | their vays bringa a | capacity audience. Middle- | mass, president of the Brotherhood, will preside and introduce the sing- | ors: Tuskegee institute is located at; ‘Tuskegee, Alabama, It has 1,500 | students and 260 teachers. It sceks | to provide an opportunity to young | negrocs for training as teachers, | skilled workers and practical farm- ers. In addition it is promoting a | program of good-will between whites | and blacks in the south. This Tus- kegee program of racial amity was | 2 considerable factor in reducing | lynchings from 30 in 1926 to 16 in | 1 and to only efght in 1925. These singers are touring the cast in the interest of Tuskegee in- | stitute. Robert R. Moton, successor to Booker T. Washington, is suc- cessfully carrying on the work in this institution. The meeting is open to the public, men and women, without charge, but a free-will of- fering will be lifted for the work Tuskegee is doing to train, inspire | and uplift the negro masses of the | south. | ADMITS HE MILLED | GIRL 4 YEARS AGO (Continued from First Page) | clue to the murderer, Vather Accused Him Johnson expressed the conviction | that Relhaver, whom he had dis- | charged from the farm a weck be- fore his daughter diseppeared, killed | the glrl because her parents had | tried to end a romance with the tarmband. ‘ | Johnson's theory was given weight | when Corporal Dunn, fornicr state | trooper, found fragments of a letter | and a partly filled box of .22 calibre | bullets buried in the cellar of a de- | serted house on the Johnson farm.

Boston, Feb. ¢ UP—The last of a fleet of 32 fishing craft was cxpect- ed 16 make port today in a dramatic race aguinst time from the storm- swept George's Banks with an ag- gregate catch of close to 2,000,006 pounds. An even score of ice encrusted vessels including five steamers tied up at the fish pier yesterday after- noon, fighting until the end for favored positions. Today the slow craft were due to pay the penatee of late arrival in a flooded market. Wholesale prices for cod and had- dock which have held at 6 to § cents a pound would tumble to 5 or even ¢ cents, the dealers said. Some of the ships that made port yesterday carried unusually heavy loads. The steamer Georgetown had 150,000 pounds, the Trimount and the Louis Winslow 110,000 each while several of the larger schoon ers came fairly close to those marks. The Shamrock had 135.000 pounds and the Marictta B., 100,000, The fleet had been \virtually marooned on the Banks for the past 10 days by heavy gales and seas, unable to fight through in light. unladen ships and unable because of the severity of the weather to do any profitable fishing. Then came a lull and a heavy catch and Satur- day night saw the race homeward in full swing.
