Music ACademy's
Two ReCifaIs

The Academy of Pianoforte
and DramaticS, Anna Bobitt-
Gardner, Mus. B. S., director,
ClariSsa E. Cooke, assistant, and
Suzette Perkins, dramatic in
structor, presented a Demon
Strational Recital on Friday
evenings, June II for the girls
and June 10 for the boys, in Re-
cital Hall, New England Con-
Servatory Of Music building.
The 1875 youthful students
rendered their piano pieces and
dramatic readings in manner
that brought forth hearty APP
plause from the large audiences
on both Friday evenings. Many
Of them showed distinct musical
and dramatic ability. Gifts and
floral pieces from parents and
friends of the students we're re-
ceived by many, Most inter
esting features of the Recital
were the dramatic reading by
Louise Parks in the High Hat"
and the two playlets by Miss
Perkins who now has as her as
sistant Mrs. Carrie Satterwhite.
Russell Roberts, won the NAL
colin Gardner Scholarship; this
scholarship is in memory of
Anna Bobitt's husband, NAL
colin Michael Gardner and is
offered to any boy who has done
the most for the Academy for
the entire season.
The Academy's Adult Recital
was held Sunday afternoon,
June 81, thus bringing to a close
a very successful season at the
Music Academy. Anna Bobitt-
Gardner, as always, sends out
a hearty THANK You" to her
many friends and patrons and
asks them to listen every Thurs
day evening at $3.50 to the SER
les of Radio Breakfasts over
Station WMEX.

Cong. Dies Joke?

The Committee for inveStiga-
ting Un-American activities
under the super management of
Congressman Martin Dies Cd
Of Texas, has now questioned
the American status of native
born Colored citizens, Russian
reds" and lately the American
Japanese, all more or less CLASH
fed as non-aryans. Mr.. Dies
and other southerners have in
1ected a lot of race" into their
arguments and their statements
have influenced national opin-
ion regarding reds" Colored
and japanese. Very we'll. Now
the Dies Committee is being
asked to investigate the "aryan"
preaching organizations like the
Ku Klux Khan which might
create some OF the most start
ling revelations in American
history and would topple many
a race-baiting So-called citizen
now engaged in foxy fiag-wav-
ing in governmental high places.
The Khan and its kindred organ
izationS are contrary to the
teachings of the U. S. Constitu-
ton and therefore UN-AMERI-
CAN. 1t is one of the OLDEST
un-American societies in Am
erica and its members, in pro-
noting Nazi aryan propaganda

Jail Wrong People

Meanwhile nobody is getting
anywhere by trying to minimize
either the source or the impor-
lance of tn erecent race riots.
Somebody should be punished
besides the box car full of Col
ored Detroit defenders of their

so promptly slammed in Jail.
Somebody else should face the
threatening authority of Army
guns and bayonets besides that
overcrowded little colored COM
munity in Detroit where so
many broken windows had stars

point for investigation. In Lon
don, policeman seldom en-

seeming eagernesS of police to

Of the worst aspects OF the riot.
To allow such policemen to re-

such German Gestapo action.

BEAUTY HINTS
FOR SILKY HAIR
By NINA TEMPLE

FOR SILKY HAIR
Some one asked a movie star
what she did to make her hair
so silky and glossy. Her answer
was a surprise. 1t was this:
Just place the end Of the hair
in salty butter, then brush,
brush brush! There was a
kind of happy light in her hair
that is seldom seen. They say
there is nothing new under the
sun, but surely this little trick
is new and at the same time
within the reach of every
housewife, whether she be city
bred or just country lass. Try
it!

Hemingway Book
Now in Movie Form

NEW YORK, July l5.-UP)-
The movie version of for whom
the bell tolls" the novel with the
spanish revolution setting, was re-
ceived today as one of the pictures
of the year. except that it was too
long.
For two hours and so minutes, a
crowd of 1000 notables watched
the S3,000,00O technicolor film un-
furl the world premier of a story
that covered only four days of war
in the high Sierras of Spain.
Hollywood tossed aside its tradi-
tions and followed closely ernest
Hemingway's novel, including con-
troversial spanish politics and the
sleeping bag episode, leaving out
only the rnmentionable phrase and
the more intimate scenes.
