JESSEN yICIOUSLY ASSAULTED
CONTINUED from 1st Page
Nearly Punctured Lung

An examination OF Mr.. Jessen's
wounds at the hospital disclosed the
fact that one OF the knife cuts nearly
punotured his left lung. DIR. Croll
said that in his opinion the lung had
been pricked but as no blood was
raised he concluded that the organ
had not ben completely punctured.
The knife entered Mr.. Jessen's back
Just under the lung. Another cut in
his neck showed up badly but fortu-
nately no vital artery was severed.
The other cuts were not bad ones.
In addition to stabbing him, one of
the men struck him heavy blow with
a stone just 70 the right OF the heart
and that wound was the sorest for a
longtime

the most significant evidences of this
came to my notice in the handsome

Ibanez's Contribution to Poe Memorial

When Senior Blaseo Ibanez said that
the Bronx should erect a memorial to
Edgar Allan Poe-and threw down
500 to show that he means business
he acted like a poet. Though Poe
pried into number OF hooks and
crannies of European literature. he
seems never to have interested him
self in Spain or Spanish. His "Oval
Portrait" is located in zone Of those
piles of commingled gloom and grand
eur" which have so long been associ-
ated with Spanish architectures,, and
that is about the extent of his debt
to the land of our guest. But poets
do not look for reasons; they are con-
tent with opportunities. Seeing that
we had no adequate Poe memorial, he
seized upon the chance to make a good
suggestion. Possibly, also. Poe's
