will send out to our subscribers and

We have enjoyed the hard work
that has been ours for the past fiji
teen years in getting out The Pro-
gressive without missing an issue
Except our usual holiday vacationt,
and now we are ready for an inter
mission. During the time, we have
endeavored to Build for Belington

our successes and our failures-have
made advances and mistakes. The
experience is an asset that we prize.
The material things are trivial COM
pared to the immaterial-it is here
we have found friends, life long
friends; it is here we have made ac-
quaintenances who form the back
ground of our success, and the sue
cess of future years.
We have tried to line up with
progressive issues, unselfishly, with
cut malice, and for the betterment
of mankind. We know we have been
misunderstood at times, but like
many others have left this all to the
finer workings Of the inevitable,
and can say with the poet Truth
crushed to earth will rise again"

Friday and Saturday of this week will be shown at The Show '"The Fire Brigade" This production does Tor the firemen what ''The Big Pa rade did for the American soldier, and brings before the public in an arresting manner the necessity of fire prevention without at any time becoming a preachment on the sub ject.
 A gripping dramatic story has been woven against a background of fire and firefighters that holds the spectator from beginning to end
 A gripping, hfelike drama of our everyday heroes, the fremen.
 A child hailed as one of the most sensational finds in prodigies for years will be seen in "The Devils Circus" the Metro-GoldwynM Mayer picture coming to The Show on Sun day. She is Joyce Coad, 6 years old, who was selected over hundreds of experienced motion picture chil- dren to play her first motion pie ture role in this picture. Her work proved a profound sensation.
 Immediately following the com pletion of her latest picture "The Masked Woman," now playing at The Show, Anna Nilsson, First National star, sailed for Stockholm to visit her parents.
 1 The Swedish star returned re- gently on the s. S. Gripsholm and resumed work at Burbank.
 The most typical Charles Ray pie ture that the star has had for a long time, is Sweet Adeline," the Chadwick picture that will open at The Show Wednesday and Thurs day As the hero, the dreaming country boy whose far-fetched vi sions finally materialize into reali- 1 ty, Ray makes one of the finest and subtlest characterizations of his career.

NEW YORK. April 29.--Jack Demp.
sey will hit the heavyweight come

guidance of q manager.
The former champion, accepting Tex
Richards terms for a, test bout with
Pauline UcZudun here early in July,
has informed the New York promoter
he will boss his own campaign to
regain the title, and Rickard thinks
his Judgment is good
Jack doesn't need a manager. He
is a good business man himself and
/ will help look after his financial
affairs" says Tex.
Gene Normile, business repre- sent
ative Of the erstwhile titleholder last
year, confirmed Dempsey's announce.
uent that he is now without man
agerial assistance. Normile also
affirmed Trainer Gus Wilson's report
of Dempsey's good condition. declar-
ing that Jack never looked better in
all his career"
Although Rickard refused to name
the purse he will post for Dempsey's
first match, reports came from Madi-

900. In accepting Pauline as his first
foe Dempsey also agreed to meet the
winner of the Sharkey-Maloney fight,
Rickard asserted.
The survivor of the latter match
is slated to be Gene Tunney's oppo-

lion dollars TO see Dempsey make q
monkey of himself against Tunney
last September and from the looks
of things they are going 10 have an
other opportunity next September.
It is to laugh-or cry-depending on
how one looks at it.
Back of the talk of meeting be.
tween Mickey Walker, the middle
weight king and Leo Lomski. the
sensat tional Western battler, lies a
story which is interesting Eastern
fight fans, granting that Westerners
may regard it as fishy.
Anyway, the story goes that Jack
Dempsey is more or less quietly in
terested in Leo Lomski and that
nothing would please the former
heavyweight king more than to have
Leo go against Walker, who, as all
know, is Jack Kearns' meal ticket,
and take his title away from him.
So far as the Kearns part of the
bargain is concerned, it looks as
though Lomski has far too great
punching power for the dapper man
ager to be willing to take a chance
with him.
Lomski has already beaten the
likes of Jack Willis, Joe Anderson
and Bert Colima in his last three
starts. feats which have earned for
Lomski the sobriquet of the "Aber-
deem assassin"
If Lomski can make 100 pounds for
an important battle and still be
strong. which some fans doubt, he
looks to be the most dangerous mid
dleweight contender who has ap-
peared since Tiger Flowers lost his
title
