THE BWANNEE SYNCOFATERS OF RALEIGH W ERE THE FIRST
COMBO IN THE CAROLINA*
Prior to the THRB BLAZERS, THE LOUIS JORDANS. THE
.KING COLES and the MORGAN BOYS, THE SYNCOPATERS were
well-established in the music world . . . MORAN and MACK. Mu
comedy learn, was bowing out to AMOS- N ANDY the BOSWELL
SISTERS to the ANDREWS SISTERS, MILLER and LYLE TO
ASHES and BILBO and EDDIE RECTOR, and RALPH COOPER, io
POPS and LOUIE, when the SYNCOPATERS made their debut on
tiie American scene.
In the days of appearances of our first great bands, as CAB
CALLOWAY, DON REDMAN. MILLS BLUE RIBBON BOYS and
FLETCHER HENDERSON, a group of promising and talented
musicans formed themselves into the first COMBO known as “CAB”
JOE CHRISTMAS and ins Swannee Syncopate?* of Raleigh. This
group consisted of Olivia Browning, piano tßaleigh*; Prank (Dixie*
Davis, banjo and guitar,, (Philadelphia); Vincent Greene, violinist.
(New York City* and Joe Christmas, accordian, xylophone, violin and
featured vcoah. t, rounded out the combo.
This was the- first group of Negro musicians to hold a regular
broadcasting spot weekly on station WPTF. They were once, featured
on a network broadcast. They were given a choice spot on the pro
gram by station executives Richard Mason, H, ■<. Carpenter and
Graham Poyr.ei who were responsible for their success.
Long before lbe days of Nat “King” COLL and the small com
bo era the Swannee Syr.copaters had gained much popularity on
♦he ariways and had performed at such plush spots as the Caro
lina, Country Club, Norman’s Club. College and fraternity dances
and a regular spot at Raleigh’s College Inn. Versitlle in their
writing and arrangements, they still have in their possession un
published music as “.Stop Loving Me Fardner’ and “Do It Miss
Mable,”
Broken tip by graduation, they are al! in the professional outlay.
Olivia Browning Jones is the wife of Father Matthew W, Jones, resid
ing in Knoxville, Term., operates a private music school in the same
city. Frank Davis is a postal employee in Philadelphia and heads a
small combo Vincent Greene is a senior interviewer and field worker
lor the Textile Workers Union of America. Joe (Cab) Christmas, be
came State Director of North Carolina’s Federal Theatre Project for
Negroes. He was associated with the great Russian-Amrican producer,
Kay McCfly and learned the ‘ theatre” In its fullness from the'master.
Continuing Ins studio- at Carnegie Tech and A'ale he casted ids lot In
the public school system of North Carolina and is now an English
Instructor at Lincoln Hi School in Chapel Hill. Yes. the Swannee Syn
copates were “the thing” for cool syncopated rhythm . , .
Principal J. W. Mask, Jr., of Monroe Street Hi School, in Hamlet,
has created such a “welcome air” at his school until it reminds one
of the big welcomes that confront a visitor when entering one of the
big offices on the Harvard Ditiv. campus or in the office of a big east
ern executive . , .
Principal E, A. Elliot of the high school in Bethel tells the o»e
about him attending a funeral in Washington, D. C and winding up
In the wrong funeral procession Not cognizant of the fact that two
funeral processions could be going down the same street, at the same
time, Mr. Elliot followed a truck that somehow pulled in front of him
without noticing that the truck was of no concern to the funeral.
When the truck pulled into another street, Mr. Elliot followed, which
threw him Into the othci funeral procession. It was not until they
reached the church that he found out that he was attending the
funeral of the wrong deceased . . .
CARVER HIGH SCHOOL
Go and see for yourself, Set off on the outskirts of Finetops
an educational monument that has inspired 9 community to
respectable h .grfats that heretofore were unheard of by life-long
residents of the village. Cutting, shooting and regular Saturday
brawls, as In most rural towns end big towns alike, were common
weekend spectacles when Principal “.Stop” Gilliam took over as
head man at Carver. Since that time (a span of 17 years) the town
and School hats under-gone a transformation. “Step” started at the
school and then went to the town fathers to soiieit ibeir support
in promoting a good conduct program he formulated in his over
all community improvement discourse. Consequently, everything
worked to the letter Today CARVER students strut wUh pride and
delight over the high standard that the institution enjoys, and the
pattern set at CARVER li J has influenced the community and
surrounding o areas to the extent where the school is looked upon
as a heactsp tight whose brilliance illuminates ttir avenues of
fort-right thinking, cooperation, collective ideas, close harmony,
execution, perseverance, understanding, constructive criticism,
hard work and progress.
On the faculty at CARVER are a number of teachers that were
forced to withdraw from other schools due to one thing or another.
But at Carver where there is chance for growth, expresdori, incen
tives, a well mapped program and with experienced and constructive
guidance have proved to be all that a principal could ask for.
“STEP”, a sobriquet he picked up while starring at end on the
football team at Shaw University and combing the world to gather
experience that has proven valuable in his present position, bows
in union with the rest of his faculty to his PTA. local school superi
ors, friends and organizations for their aid in making CARVER HIGH
SCHOOL an influential landmark and a pattern that reaches far
beyond the walls of brick and mortar and the ground upon which it
stands . , .
WILLIAM H. (Fats) JONES, of Elisabeth City, could be referred
to as undertaker Jones or W. H. JONES, realtor. But “Fate", as he is
known to his old football chums and admirers, is principal of the
Pasquotank Elementary School in the near Virginia town. His school
is the last word in everything and the family air that exists around
the school is typical of the Jones personality and general makeup. To
miss seeing “Fats” when visiting Elizabeth City is like not seeing the
town. With his many duties to perform “Fats' still finds time to spend
with the “boys". He has always been tough at “bid whist”; but there
are plenty good players around the ELKS HOME and they don't run
from the table when Jones shows up for a tough game . . .
CALVIN PAGE, head man at P. W. MOORE m Elia. City, raves
about the great band that his school has—one of the best in the
state—NAVY ARMSTRONG, in Rocky Mount may look with stern
eyes at anyone who says that his man’s bm:d at BOOKER T. is not
number one , „ .
WILLIAM ALLEN. SHAW grad, and a favorite student of the
great mathematician ''POP” Wltmlow, is principal of Elizabeth City
Training School. Suave and Immaculate in dress as ever the “HEAD”

GOOD SKIN ('.'ARE IS TftIPOK

Not pleasant to thmk of. is h ’ <
A few days without, a bath can
elapse with iso serious results, but
if bathing is consistently put off
our skin will soon start to show
signs of neglect. So it is important
that wc stay clean by taking a re
gular daily bath —tub. shower,
‘■Spence" or newer bath.
Mild soap protects skin from
irritation and there is nothing
more effective than soap to
give that scrubbed, well
groomed, clean look. Rinse the
. skin well ami apply lotion or
cold cream to these hard to
clean areas such as heels, el
bows, and knees.
Winbum and chapping arc verv
much alike. Both cause the skin
to become reddened and ro u ph.
This sualty occurs in cold weather
when oil and sweat glands sre
less active, hence the treatment
consists largely of applying lotion*
