GRADY WILL LOSE FINGER
Injury Sustained Last De- cember While He Was
 Making Arrest

An injury received in the line of duty in December, 1883, is costing Patrolman Thomas Grady the third finger of his right hand. The fin- ger will be amputated tomorrow at St. Mary's hospital, the operation being necessary in view of the fact that the finger is without feeling and the knuckle is well down in the palm of the hand.
 Patrolman Grady, veteran mem Der of the department, and door man at headquarters, went out with the patrol wagon to bring in a prisoner in December of the year before last. On the way to the station, the arrested man attacked the policeman and attempted to push him out of the patrol wagon. Patrolman Grady pushed the pris- oner back, he broke a finger.
 The finger was found to be broken, and good part of it forc- ed into the hand. An operation re- stored the finger to normal length, but the knuckle could not be moved. Feeling gradually left the finger, with doctors deciding that amputation is now necessary.

neither illusions nor sentimentality.
He graduated from Stuyvesant High
School, Wanting to be an artist, he took
course in Fine Arts at Columbia Why boy
in poverty stricken family should want to
become an artist was another problem for
Mrs. Cagney However. she encouraged him
to study art. He became Junior Architect
Neither should the reader become confused
over another high-sounding title. His salary
was $40 week.
Deciding it might pay better to return to
school and work in the evening, he went back
to Columbia and the Student Army Corps.
Before long he was working as bundle wrap
per at Wanamaker's. He received SIC week.
Each night he worked as waiter at So week.

got his brother. Eddie. job Eddie was well
pleased and brought Bill Cagney in as bus
boy. Bill was only fourteen, but Jimmy gave
him pair of his long pants Soon Bill was
waiter.
When the cashier became i'll, Jimmy told
the owner that he knew of a middle-aged
Irish-Norwegian red-headed woman who
would be ideal to handle the money. "She
can handle money like nobody's business"
explained Jimmy

"All my life, answered Jimmy.
The proprietor was about to send for Mrs.
Cagney when the cashier returned.
All went well until Bill brought club

ordered vanilla ice cream. The lady, leaving
her dignity at the club, told him many things
about stupidity that he had never heard
before. Bill began to grin. The other Cagney
boys, overhearing the woman. gathered
around the table. They also began to grin.
Wherever the woman looked, she beheld
grinning face.
The proprietor and cashier came to the
table. They also began to grin. Thinking no
doubt she had lost her senses, the woman
hurried out of the place. leaving dollar and
a powder puff on the table Jimmy took the
dollar and gave the powder puff to Bill 1t

-~HE irrepressible Jimmy Cagney is
retiring from the screen - with
the hope of leaving Hollywood
forever when his present con-
tract expires.
He will join the famous Irish Players at
the Abbey Theater in Dublin. He considers
them, as group, the greatest actors in the
world. and, Il will be proud to enroll as
humble performer among them"
Jimmy is one of the most intelligent cinema
players in Hollywood Several years ago he
said to me:
mo one can blame me for getting bit
annoyed with this business of striking women
in every one of my pictures. 1t has been going
on for some time now. In each succeeding
picture approach such scenes with sinking
feeling The film audiences seem to have found
it novel when first did it in The Public
Enemy They clamored for more. The
writers of all my pictures have written it into
the scripts. and the directors have followed it
up by directing it into the pictures"
Camey no longer slaps women in films,
but with the exception of "A Midsummer
Nights Dream" the pictures in which he
appears have not greatly improved. One of his
latest The Irish in U.s." is moronic mock
cry of a morbidly sensitive people.
Perhaps it was after his work in this film
that Jimmy decided to join the Irish Players.
An understanding group, they will forgive
him.
