CEIFF WAGNER, secretary of
~ the indianapolis District Golf
Association, which will hold its an
nual 54-hole tournament next Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday at
Highland, Speedway and Meridian
Hills, has sounded warning to
players who anticipate entering.
Wagner states that several clubs
have not as yet turned in their dues
for club memberships in the asso-
citation.
The directors, in a recent meet
ing, ruled that only players affili-
ated with clubs which are members
of the association can enter the
tournament. This in spite of the
fact that the player himself may be
an Individual member.
So get in touch with your club
secretary and see that your club
dues are paid. And get your entry
to Wagner at once so that you or
your foursonle can have your de-
sired starting time.

Gentleman:
We would like to call your at
tention to the intentional premedi-
tated unfairness to Negro internes
not being allowed at Receiving
Hospital, also the employment OF
colored nurses and auxiliary en-
ployees.
There have been two occasions
on successive years when Negro
graduates Of the Detroit College OF
Medicine and Surgery have been re-
fused internship and have not re-
ceived official notice OF their re-
fusal. Names of these graduates
can be furnished.
On several occasions, a member
of our committeu has called the
hospital for the admission OF a pa
tient. When informed that the pa
tient was colored, the reply came :.
There is no ROOM" But when the
same caller requested admission for
a white patient, the reply came:
Send her down."
What policy do you intend to
adopt with relation to the Negro

ployees?
Respectfully yours,
