A wedding of much interest to
Seattle society took place Thurs
day evening, April 4, when Mrs.
Blanche Rodger Tolles and Mr..
Wyatt Anthony Stephens repeated
their martial vows before an i'm
provised altar of Gala lilies, mar
cissus and white carnations.
On each side of the mantle were
tall ivory candles in crystal can

about the rooms. In the center
stood a beautiful Wedding Bell

ribbon. Maiden hair fern and white
carnations surrounded the base of
the tree.

child Bengaline taffeta, made on
princess lines with hustle effect.
Her corsage was sweet peas and
gardenias.

Admit Negroes To
*. u. Graduate
School NAACP

New York-The solution to Ken
tucky's problem of what to do with
Negro college students who wish
to pursue graduate and profession
al training within the state is to
admit these students to state in
situations without further ado.
This was the position taken by
the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People in
letter to Frank L. McVey, presi-
dent of the University of Kentucky
and chairman of an advisory COM
mittee appointed by the Governor
of Kentucky to look into the mat
ter in the light of the Supreme
Court decision handed down in the
Gaines case.
A report recently made public
by the committee, admits that the
United States Supreme Court deci-
sion calling for Gaines admission
to the University of Missouri I'M
less another school, equal in every
detail is set up, is perfectly clear.
However, the report takes no posi-
tive stand on the issue, merely
pointing out that a Kentucky sta
tute of 1904 might make it diff
cult for the state to comply with
the High Courts decision, unless
this law is modified. The report re-
commends that facilities be ex-
banded to meet the educational
needs of the Negro population in
Kentucky through the expansion of
the present Louisville Municipal
College. Wherever Negro students
find it impossible to get the train
ing they want at either this school
or at the Kentucky State College,
then the state must necessarily
provide for the student in other
ways" the report says. This is as
far as the report goes in actually
making a recommendation to solve
this particular problem, although
many other suggestions about
other problems are given.

Host Colony" Is Reported 10 Be Right in New
 York State
By GEORGE TUCKER

NEW YORK, Sept. 19-Tallulah Bankhead, whose pop is Senator Bankhead of Alabama, and whose uncle was the late Speaker of the House, has bought a new home in Rockland county, New York
 This has become prime territory for many of Broadway's best known people, including Jim Whitaker, composer and author (he was once married to Ina Claire); William c. Vogt Helen Hayes (whose brick walled home is landmark for pass ing motorists), Milton Caniff, the artist; Franchot Tone, and Burgess Meredith. The Meredith place is commanded by couple of artificial cannon, inspired no doubt by the fact that it overlooks the ground where the battle of Stony Point was fought. w. c. Vogt is a famous fish erman who has written books on the subject, and among his friends and fishing companions was the Indian Two-Guns White Cal, whose face is on the buffalo nickel.
 When Whitaker was writing drama criticisms for a New York paper he sent Broadway into hys- terics on one occasion by writing thusly: When I married Ina Claire a year ago she told me she was an actress. There was nothing in her performance at the Empire Theatre last night to bear out his state ment."

Some of the best informal marine photography in the world is being done by people who live on tugboats in the Hudson River There are quite a number of New Workers, some poor and almost poverty stricken, others well off, who com pose a sort of floating community along the Manhattan waterfront Their craft ranges from houseboats to old abandoned barges. But all, or most, have cameras. They are able to obtain intimate views of ships and waterfront scenes that are un- spoiled by the professional "stagi- ness" of posed pictures. Today, for instance, three battleships of the U. s. Navy are lying at anchor below the George Washington Bridge off to one side is the hull of an old whaler There are shad dories and oil barges. There are the arrested barks of warning nations, riveted to their slips, unable to move.
 When the nights are still warm people sit out on the decks of their barges, dancing to music from their radios or phonographs. Here is a wife hanging out the weeks wash there is young man in dun garees courting his girl on the deck of half-rotten tug 7. It is pie turesque and at times a romantic aspect of waterfront life
