A HOME town girl who made
IA good in radio, the screen
and in vaudeville will face her
home town audience for the first
time in her eventful career next
Friday.
Miss June Pursell, a stunning
platinum blond, has done her part
in making this city famous as the
home of stars and great writer's.
Ten years ago, June left Indi-
annapolis with her parents to go
to Hollywood. She was then in
her first year in Shortridge.
She returns Friday to the Lyric
as a star in three divisions of en-
tertainment-radio, stage and
movies.
Even when a child, Miss June
had charming voice and years of
study and training have en-
HANGED its value.
In 1924, she began her radio
career by singing over xxx in
Hollywood and soon her voice be-
came so popular that she attracted
attention in New York and was
placed under two year contract

a more perfect murder story" he
says.
From that story Red went to
the Daddy Browning case in
White Plains, and later with
George Buchanan Fife, grand
old-timer" of the Evening World,
covered the Snyder Gray murder
trial.
He did turns at rewrite, federal
court, the criminal courts, Harlem,
the Bronx, and Broadway between
murders.
The night the baby son of
Colonel Lindbergh was kidnapped,
Red was hoisted out of bed at
in the morning and sent scuttling
down to Hopewell, N. ].
"It was a confusing assign
ment," says Red, with the state
police balling up the investigation
and spending most of their time
chasing reporters away"
XXTHILE on the Broadway beat,
w Red became fast friends
with Norman Carroll, brother of
Earl (of bath tub fame). Nor
man decided to branch out into
the show business on his own, so
Red, Norman and three or four
others collaborated on play.

it looked good in rehearsal.

Mr.. Gallagher, you see, feels
strongly about the subject so. we
at the office haye compromised.
We call him Red.
II ED GALLAGHER has had an
N interesting and thrilling news
paper career, even if he does tell
you Pooh" Don't believe him.
That young red-head has been
places and has seen things.
For instance, he has covered the
famed Broadway beat" in New
York, the Hall-Mills case, the
Snyder Gray murder mystery, the
Lindbergh kidnapping case, and
lately the Indianapolis Power and
Light Company expose for The
Times. and the Djllinger gang
capture at Tucson, Ariz.
Red-he's just shade under six
feet tall-Sits on the reWrite desk
at The Times whenever he is not
out covering a big story When
he's in you know it. For when
Red Gallagher gets on telephone
everybody within a radius of 100
yards can hear distinctly, or at
least used to.
Since returning from Tucson,
Red has been reforming and he
has been speaking over the tele-
phone in soft tones, to the all-too
evident pleasure of the cub across
the room who makes big show of
trying to concentrate.
a
ID ED was born in Brooklyn,
IN N. Y, the son of the late
Frank Gallagher, former political
writer for the Brooklyn Daily
Eagle, who was the youngest state
senator in New York states his
tory Che was 22), and who later
became an outstanding authority
on the New York water front,
specializing in legal work for
number of New York concerns
with holdings along the rivers.
So, you see, Red comes by his
talents honestly.
At prep school Red played both
basketball and football, but after
he entered Fordham university he
dropped out of sports. After his
freshman year at Fordham, Red
moved over to Rutgers, where he
took course in ceramics engineer
ing. He made Delta Kappa EpSi-
Ion at Rutgers and discovered
that the comfortable chairs on the
front porch of the fraternity
house provided a singularly choice
spot in which to contemplate on
life in general.
1t was rude jolt, but the day
finally came when Red had to go
to work. He got job in terra
Gotta plant to practice the art of
ceramics. His term of service
convinced Red he was not cut out
to be a ceramics engineer, so he
appealed to his father.

NNE night when I was Gathering about the state

mentS about the pugilistS and running horses, old
Colonel Ed Bradley. the owner of the big store in
Palm Beach, gave me fair warning that those rou-
lette wheels of his which were clicking away in his
playroom, would grind the bones of anybody who
tried to beat them.
I thought it very nice of the old colonel to
tell this and figured that he had done me

Sucker Is Sure Loser

MO, he said, the sucker type of trader stood no
y chance in the margin business, and, though
a look Of pain overspread his features when 1 put
in that man ought to know something about the
dice with which he shoots that was what it came to-
after all. Now, in dice contest, man should
know what price to quote the remote possibility
that the dice will lie ten when they cease to bounce
and in trading on margin, he likewise ought to
study up on the stock in question and all the in
HuenceS which might affect his stock, though
his research carry him away off into economics
And even then maybe he ought to put his savings
back into his pocket because it took character in
addition to knowledge to see a man through winner
Right there in the New York Stock Exchange
man talked that way and when 1 said that all this
sounded as though he chasing off business he
said that sort of business wasn't any good for the
mouse, anyway. 1t tended to break people and when
people go broke there is no profit in them so the
broker doing business on commission, likes to see
his customers keep winning and remain customers.
