Dame May Whitty rehearsing a
scene In which she buffers biscuit

Even the camera men and cleo

It's the "Tink Tin" number for
"The Lodger" and some 40 girls in

Gershwin in Capable Hands

Ira, played by Herbert Rudley,
again demonstrates gently with him.

in Alda's voice, ut is only with my
music can prove my right to live. .
He sways against a wall, and sud-
denly, in frenzy, strikes his head
against it. "I must write" his voice
rises in hopeless sob, "and I can't
even hear 1t inside me any nore!n
That's as near as audiences will
come to seeing George Gershwin's s
death. Director Irving Rapper
breaks the silence with praise for
newcomer Aida. Perfect, Bobby"
he says. Now take 1t easy-even In
pictures the first death is the
hardest.
Aida is swarthy individual who
at first glance looks much like John

who was chiefly responsible for
landing him in movies. John saw

Campus EOents
Christian Youth Fellowship
Told Inter-raciaI Problems

There is but one race today, and
that is the human race, students
OF the Christian Youth Fellowship
were told at their meeting in Stark
weather Hall Sunday evening.
when they were addressed by DIT.
Lawrence Perry. There is but one
future and one destiny for all OF us
today, he continued, and 1t is i'm
possible TO think Of any racial su-
periority In the destiny Of God.
Discussing "A Basis for Better
Race Relations DR.. Perry stated
that in a time like today it is to be
expected that there will be racial
friction. We should give thanks, he
said, for the guiding hand Of relig-
ious groups that neutralize these
frictions. The American citizen, DR..
Perry continued. no matter what
race, is guaranteed certain rights
under the constitution Of the United
States.
There is equality for all in this
land. he said. and yet there still
remains a certain degree OF fric-
ton.
Ways suggested by the speaker
to help avoid friction were educa-
ton, religion, which begets toler-
ance, and a mutual trust and re-
spect for one another. A period OF
ques tons and discussion followed
the talk.
The worship service at the begin
ming of the meeting was led by
Clark Spike, Saline, with A Quest
for Understanding" as his theme.
Miss Marie Turner, Hillsdale,
played as a prelude a piano solo.
Steal Away The hymns Where
Cross the Crowded Ways Of Life"
and These Things Shall be
Loftier Race" were sung. with
Miss Turner at the piano. Follow
ing the talk, Miss Edyth Bryant,
Ypsilanti, sang a spiritual, MY
Desire" accompanied by Miss
Wanda Smith.
A friendly hour. with games and
singing followed the meeting, with
refreshments served by a commit
tee consisting OF Miss Mary Jane

Negro, for that was up to the pro-
cess of education, and is still be-
ing carried out today. How the
races get along together, DR.. Yoder
pointed out. depends a great deal
on early experiences. There is dan
ger OF ones becoming intoxicated
with his own goodness, and the
same is as true. OF nation as is
true OF an individual. he said and
IL true can lead to their destruc-
ton. We have in our own commun-
ity the task of creating unity and
understanding among races, he
said Standing together, the speak
er continued. we as individuals hold
the power OF making the world
free. We see dawn Of new hope
and new world, and we must see
clearly our individual response. A
nation is only as strong as its peo-
pie, DR.. Yoder said, and one should
say NO weakness nor neglect OF
mine shall make my country weak. y
In his talk Dr.. Yoder spoke of sew
eral prominent members OF the Ne
gro race, including Roland Hayes,
Marian Anderson. and George
Washington Carver.
Miss Margaret Kelly, Ypsilanti,

ice which preceded the talk, and

solo was sung by Miss Jean ker-
sey, with Mrs. Beatrice Kersey ac-
companying her.
