 Tt was a knockout as you Amer jeans say, and it hit the nail righ; square on the head" is one of the state ments he made here that his hOm" folks back in Nancy would never havr figured out.
 COue, in these words. described thu result of the psychological examina tiOn he received at the hands of DI Julian Pennington, head of BirminG hams famous psychological clinic.
 In addition, COue said the test wa marvellous, extraordinary. tres bien and so on. But the knockout" stuf almost tOppled over Dr. Pennington, b admits
 COue cOnfided to clinic attaches that he picked up this bit of American talk in q Birmingham department store. A young woman was raving about one of the late model dresses on display.
 Dr. Pennington sized up COue witb out asking him q question. Here ar oOAlC OL thC AAnuAASop Just uo NhNy WI presented in the clinics report to th visitor:

Equipped With Gymnasium, Glass Rooms And Club Ac-
 coInmodatiOns Complete

Formal dedicatory exercises for the new home of the Birmingham Young Mems Hebrew association will take place at o'clock Sunday afternoon at the building, Seventh avenue and Eighteenth street.
 sDr. H. M. Edmonds, pastor of the mdependent Presbyterian church, is listed on the program for the services, to give an address. Other addresses will be made by Jake Burger, chairman of the ways and means committee of the organization, and Mrs. Joseph Smolian, president of the Young Wom- en's Hebrew association.
 W The services will be featured by the formal presentation of the key of the building to Simon Klotz, president of tho; organization, by Ike Adler, chair man of the building committee. Several appeals for membership will be made at the services, Dr. Henry Swedlaw, Louis Pizitz and M. v. Joseph. presi- dent of Temple Emanu-El, being sched- uled to make these.
 Started In 1908
 Starting with a charter membership Of only 16 members, the local or Eanization has grown into one of the strongest organizations of its kind in
 
 tion was effected in 1908, with Henry Hwedlaw as president and Isadore Shapiro as secretary. A cottage at Sixth avenue and Seventeenth street was remodeled into an appropriate building for the group.
 Several years ago the need of larger building became acute, and drive for funds started in 1922. The result was the erection last year of the, new $160,00O home the organization now occupies.
 Located on a 1O0-yard square lot in desirable section, the building pro- yides facilities for all the activities of the association. Ample provision is made for both physical and educational work. A large gymnasium, coupled with locker rooms, dressing rooms, shower baths, etc., provides one of the most complete physical departments in this section of the south. A pressing shop and barber chairs also are lo- cated in the building.
 fe~ Educational Classes
 A number of schoolrooms have been placed in the new home of the or- eanization. These, under the personal suveryision of Rabbis Morris New field and Solomon Katz, are given over tothe study of the Bible and sciences.
 Affiliated with the Y. M. H. A. is the Young Women's Hebrew associa- tion, headed by Mrs. Joseph SmOlian. Senior, junior and juvenile divisions arS maintained by this group and a steady growth in its membership has been noted recently.
 Immediately following the dedicatory services will start a drive for members. Invitations have been sent out to all interested in the work of the local as- sociation to attend the services and thoroughly inspect the new building. Men composing the membership com niittee are looking forward to a large increase of membership since the com uletion of the new building.

TAKE STEPS TO OPEN
 NINETEENTH STREET
Had Planned To Raise Tracks Between North And South Sides Without Providing Passage For Traffic
 Under Viaduct

Disclosure that plans to elevate the railroad tracks in the vicinity of the Louisville and Nashville station con- template Q solid fill across Nineteenth street instead of opening up the street from Morris avenue to Avenue A, aroused directors of the Chamber of Commerce. to action Saturday.
 The directors will take up the mat ter at their monthly meeting Thursday afternoon, o. l.. Bum, secretary of the chamber, announced.
 Walter c. Kirkpatrick, former city engineer, who originated the plan for track elevations, brought the situation to the chambers attention. The junior chamber has discussed the case, but withheld action until the directors of the parent body take steps.
 Formal Request
 Outgrowth of the directors session, it was understood, will be a formal re- quest to the railroads to revise their plans and open up the street. It would pass under the tracks without inter- ference and no engineering difficulties would be encountered, MT. Kirkpatrick said.
 "This probably will be the last op- portunity Birmingham will have to open up this important. street to traffic in
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-03-16

both directions." Mr. Kirkpatrick con- tinued. .'It would cost more money. of course, to open up the street than to make the solid fill, but the great con venience to street traffic would De more than worth it.
 Directors of the chamber, according to Mir. Bunn, believe that concerted action will bring about . revision of the plans 70 that Nineteenth street, be- tween Morris avenue and Avenue A may be saved to traffic.
 A determined campaign in this direc- tion Is certain to develop, Mr. Bum added.
 Making Plans
 The track elevation plans are being prepared in connection with the pro- posals to remove traffic from the various railroad grade crossings in the down town district, where accidents have been occurring almost daily for years-
 Secretary Bum said an added feature of the directors meeting has been sr- ranged. It will be in the nature of . surprise and every member of the board who attends will receive . souvenir valued at s.
 Applications of more than 50 persons for membership in the chamber also are to be passed on, with indications that all will be duly elected.

SHOLDER TIRE
 COMPANY FIRE
 SOON SUBDUED

Fire of unknown origin in the Sholder Tire and Accessor company, 118 Twenty-first street, south, early Saturday morning damaged stock to an extent of $10,000, according to an estimate by officials of the firm.
 Because of the combustible mate rial stored in the shop and the headway flames had gained when first noticed by a chance passerby firemen had considerable difficulty in conquering the blaze. It was not extinquished until 2 o'clock. three hours after the alarm went in.
 Despite the ravages of the fire officials announced Saturday that business would continue as usual. Enough stock was salvaged to fill immediate requirements, it was stated.
