SOVIET LET'S cABARETS
OPEN AND GUESTS DANCE

MOSCOWSoviet officials
have sanctioned the opening of
three cabarets here and the guests
are allowed to dance under certain
police restrictions. Jazz music
is now played nightly in all of
these establishments, and it is
probable that more will be per-
mitted to open, for the govern
ment is 10 share in the profits.

eBy Associated. rress,

NEW YORK, July 1.-THE
worlds light heavyweight ring
crown, jOlted from championship
heads five times in the last six
years, found a new resting place
today atop the handsome counter
ance of Jack Delaney Of Bridge
port, Conn.,, whose real name is
Capdelaine OyiIa.
The sensational victory over
Paul Berlenbach by a unanimous
decision Of the judges brought the
crown to Delaney before a capacity
crowd which paid $4,000 to see
rivals of two years grapple.
A stirring rally in the last part
of the fifteen-round battle gave
Delaney the crown, who seeming
ly exhausted by the tremendous
punches of the champion, sudden
ly came to life, and in one of the
most sensational comebacks in
modern fistics, knocked the crown
from Berlenbach's head with
two-fisted attack which tired Ber-
lenbach, and caught him wholly
unprepared for the onslaught.
The wild rushss made by Ber-
Ienbaeh failed to affect the fight
ing spirit of Delaney. who pro-
cssdsd on with more speed with,
each additional round Of the battle
royal.
The gruelling fifteen.round con-
test was staged at the Brooklyn
National League Park, and proved
to be one of the most interesting
fistic encounters witnessed IN
many years.
There was an immense thrOng
Of fans in attendance at the big
event, which had been looked for
ward to with great interest by fol
lowers Of the sport for the past
several weeks. and the terrific
battle witnessed last night was
thoroughly enjoyed from begin
ming to end, with entire satisfac-
ton resulting from the judges,

The st. Paul Echo,
GA Court Block.
Dear Sirs:

GA Court Block.
Dear Sirs:
One of the most disgusting speech
es ever given by white man to a
Negro audience in the City of St.
Paul was favorably and enthusiastic
ally received by the intelligent po-
litical and social leaders of this city
at the annual meeting of the Urban
League of the 28th of January.
Such rot and nineteenth century
rural Mississippi oratory was an in
suit to an intelligent Negro audience.
DR.. McElveen, the speaker 1 have ref
erence to, must have thought he was
addressing a group of grade school
children or a group of Tennessee
backwoodsmen. If he were Negro,
as the title of his speech so tempo
rarily placed him, and if he followed
the advice he so generously gave us,
he would find his suggestions con-
tinually slapping him in the face.
His constant reference to our ficti-
tious inherent tendencies were ap-
palling. True, he had some good
points in his speech, but they were
so overbalanced by his illogical, in
sulting, belittling speech as a whole,
that they soon became negligible.
He said we were too patient. That
was his one truth, as was exhibited
that evening, because to sit through
the insults, slams and minstrel hui
NOR of the honorable reverend GER
tainly required the greatest amount
of patience.
Are we going to sit tight and &C
cept such warped bigotry; to deceive
ourselves into believing that we are
being advised by friends" or are we
going to show this gentleman and
others of the same mind that we are
no longer illiterate, helpless, fioun-
dering children who are willing to be
led around by the nose by their mis-
judgments, but are dynamic group
who refuse to cater to and be enter
tanned by such as we received last
Thursday evening?
