on the life of a star reported and
showing what an important part

You'd my Imagination" He further
added that he wishes every pro-
Queer, director and member of his
race could and would pay visit
to some colored newspaper office

Make Way For
Presidents
Birthday Ball

Headed by A. r. Baker and his
committee of public spirited citi-
zens, the March of Dimes will be-
gin their annual trek to Finnish
Hall, 18th and Washington Sts.,
Monday night, January 2.
Presenting a solid front against
the dreaded infantile paralysis,
the committee, headed by Gene
Coy and his Black Aces will dance
Monday night so long as there is
one dime left to fill the envelopes
and Wishing Wells of these De-
tenders of Health.
While the Wishing Well offers
many attractions, those who crave
excitement will find plenty. Each
ticket purchased carries with it a
chance to win one of the many val
liable prizes which merchants have
donated for the dance.
The fact that Tuskegee Institute
has already received a grant of
$161, $50 from this fund should be
inducement enough to cause every
Stacker to fall in line. On with the
Dance and Dimes, say the COM
mittee.
Among the many door prizes is
a jewelled necklace donated by
Lester Berg, six-cup Slick do
mated by the Poole Electric Co.,
and a prize by Mrs. Eileen Baum
garten, vice-state chairman of the
Committee for the celebration
There are numerous other prizes
