Inter racial Group
Hear Speakers
Interraeial Mass Meeting.

The Urban League and the Halle
@. Brown community house together
with the Phyllis Wheatley house OF
Minneapolis sponsored an Inter-racial
massmeeting at the st. Paul Y. w. G.
A. last Sunday afternoon. The meet
ing drew a mixed audience that filled
the auditorium The speaker of the
day, the Rev. r. F. Rutledge Beale Of
the Peoples Church, st, Paul, gave a
talk that challenged the thoughtful
consideration of his hearers and was
pronounced the frankest exposition of
the problem of the races heard in
many years. Father A. H. Lealted
made an impressive prayer. A group
of songs representing certain foreign
groups were offered by members Of
those groups while Phyllis Wheatley
Glee club sang the Negro spirituals.
Rev. /. H. Fisher, pastor of Bethesda
Baptist church, MINNEAPOLIS, pro-
nounced the benediction.

long duration, was the cause OF
death. At least we do know that
brain tumors are often overlooked,
some observers giving the percentage
missed from so to Sc. It is easy to
understand that such cases may go
on indefinitely if the individual is not
subjected to such a strenuous and
rough life as that of pugilist.
1t is indeed amusing to see in print
such superficial and thoughtless opin-
ions on medical subjects as recently
appeared in the Minneapolis Star
written by supposedly sport expert,
Charles Johnson. The latter accuses
the physicians of collision with un-
scrupulous promoters first; then after
the boxer died, he accused them of
not making thoro examination before
the fight. If he would ascertain facts
he would learn that there are many
latent conditions about the body which
take exhaustive study to reveal.
I The exact cause of brain tumors is
not known in all cases. Some few
are due to SYPHILIS and tuberculosis.
There is no definite proof that head
INJURIES are a cause, but rather they
bring into the open symptoms of a
previously obscure growth according
to Cushing.
These symptoms depend upon how
large the growth is and what area
If the brain is involved. Headache
vomiting, eye disturbances, convul-
5ions, changes in intelligence, para
.lysis, all with great variations in de-
yree and development, are important
signs to a diagnostician.
Brain surgery is now developed to
high degree of accuracy so once the
diagnosis is made by scientific study,
relief and sometimes complete cure
may be obtained.

 GOSSIP

Hollywood. - Whenever Jimmy cagney does Q thing, he goes the whole route. He may not always Do right, but ct least he carries through to the end. There's no quitting. That salary scrap he had with Warner Brothers last spring was a perfect example of the way he docs things. The studio thought he was getting enough money. Ho didn't, So instead of qulbbiing, he just up and walked out.s :.
 And now that he's been slated to do e newspaper film, he's going 10, do the thing right-which means learning something about the newspaper business. No, Jim- my didnt go out and get Q job pn a newspaper. He hasn't time for that But he did spend day re. gently in q Los Angeles newspaper office learning "what makes the wheels go round"
 Cagney was an apt pupil too. He was shown how stories from all parts of the world come in on tel- egraphic printers, how copy read. CTS write headlines and condensej these stories. Hhen he took q turn In the composing room and saw how the stories are set in type and pages made up. The stereotyping room, where the casts for each are made, came next, Then he went down to have tho mysteries of the huge presses explained to him.
 But that wasn't enough. n his new film. Picture Snatcher," taken from Daniel Ahern's novel of the same title. Jimmy's prinei- pal job Is getting pictures. So he wanted to sec how the photogra- phers operate. Of course, 1t didn't take much urging to persuade the cameramen to tell of their esca- pades in trying to get pictures. And they followed through by showing how the pictures are de- veloped and printed. After that he was taken to the engraving room and shown how cuts for re- production purposes are made from tho pictures.
 Ut sure has been m education" Jimmy declared at the end of the day. Believe me, I'll make that character authentic now or bust.' Marleue-w;itbout Won sternbcrr
 A great event took place on the Paramount lot last week-at least 1t was great as far as that studio was concerned. Marlene Dietrich started work on "Song of Songs" with Reuben Mamoullan directing her. This will be her first American-made picture with a director other than Josef von Sternberg. And studio executives are plenty anxious to find out just what will happen. Will she remain the same glamorouss Dietrich that Won Sternberg made her? VIII a new note be added to her charac- tegization? Or will she display a decided need for Won Sternberg's guiding hand?
