DR.. Olivecrona Has
Performed $500
Brain Operations

STOCKHOLM, November 21.-
(By airmaiD-In the past twenty
five years, the noted Swedish brain
surgeon, Professor Herbert Olive
crona, has performed over $500
brain operations of various kinds
in Sweden and abroad. Recently
over fifty of DR.. Oilvecrona's
Swedish and foreign pupils met in
Stockholm to celebrate this unique
anniversary and to honor their
famous teacher whose ultra-mod-
ern neuro-surgicaf clinic at the
Seraphim Hospital in Stockholm
has long been "a meeting place for
medical scientists from all parts
of the world. On this occasion, a
special "Olivecrona Society was
also formed.
Only a few weeks ago DR.. Olive
crona performed an extremely diff
ficult operation on an eight-year
old Italian boy, Luigi Frassoni,
which attracted great attention in
the Swedish press. The youngster
had a large brain tumor and the
Italian doctors found it necessary
to seek help from the Swedish
specialist. The Swedish Aero
transport Company gave the boy
and his nurse a free trip from
Florence to Stockholm, where the
patient was Immediately rushed
to the hospital. The operation, an
unusually intricate one, lasted
over two hours but proved sue
cessful. and after ten days the boy
was out of danger and well on his
way to recovery.

West Side Cabs Lose
By Jimmie N. Jones

Failing to take advantage of
free throws, the West Side Cabs
went down to defeat at the hands
of the Moose lodge in a regular
Gem City league game at the Fair
grounds Coliseum Sunday after
noon. Despite the sharp shooting
of Henry Tucker, scoring ace of
the Cables who led the Cabbie's
attack with 10 points and Vernon
Stvens recently returned to the
squad and was second with eight
markers.
The West Side boys failed to
convert on many foul shots pre-
senting opportunities to increase
the scoring for the Cables in the
close game that was thrilled pack
edthroughout the afternoon.
The first quarter ended in a
deadlock Of 10 points for each
team. The Cabs were out in front
at the half 20 to Is; 20 to rs at
the three-quarter pole but failed
to keep the small margin near the
end and the Moose led by McNay
and Parker, who kept their boys
in the game and with the game
tied "a to "a with less than a
minute to go. AL Gift sank the
winning ball to win by the final
score of Sc to "a. and to main
tain their leadership in the Gen
City league.
The West Side Cabs have lost
two of their three games to date.
Thursday night at Linden Cen
ter, the Cabs will play the Co.
lumbus Rens, formerly the Hask-
ing Lanes of that city and game
time will be $3.50.

New Book Tells Of Negro
Influence on American Music

NEW YORK, Nov. "a. (ANP)
The influence of the Negro on
American music is described as
"more profound than yam single
source" by David Even, in his
new book "Songs Of America"
just published by the Ziff-Davis
Publishing company Of New York
and Chicago.
Even, who is respected through
out the music world for his books
on music and musicians, relates
how the instructive rhythms and
tones of the Negroes were influ-
enced by the European melody
and harmony that they learned in
America to produce a new kind
of musical expression-the music
or America.
In "Songs of America" the au-
thor tells how the Negro found
himself a stranger in a foreign
land, despised and rejected, who
answered the need for an emo
tional outlet through singing. The
first Negroes who came to Amer
lea are described as 'children of
sorrow" who sought religion for
comfort and blended religion and
song into the great spirituals that
are now a part of the nations
musical heritage.

words and music included in

AIKEN, s. c., Nov. "a. CAN
PA convicted robber, white,
also wanted in Georgia for the
murder of a white man, was Civ
en- a life sentence in Judge L. D.
Lide's criminal court here recently
for the murder of a Negro last
April.
The man, George w. Bush, ais
Solesbee, has been found bully
Of numbering Sam Mason last
April 81, on the Edgefield high
way about six miles from here.
The victim had been found with a
bullet wound through his head.
Bush was captured last May in
Athens, Ca, and brought to And
erson for trial on charges of at
tempting to rob a Pelzer, S. c.,
bank. He was given a 15-year term

Atlanta Salary Trial Ends

ATLANTA, Nov. "a. CAMP
The six-day trial in Federal court
of Atlant teachers case against
the school board for equal pay
ended last week.
A. T. Walden, chief counsel
for the plaintiff, vigorously at
tackled the Atlanta board and
Sutp. Ira Jarrell's testimony that
there was "fair play" in the mat
ter of teachers salaries. The de-
tense had testified that discrimin-
atory patterns we're never allowed
in the matter of teacher pay.
The plaintiff presented a clear
cut case of discrimination, show
ing that white elementary teach
ers were paid more than Negro
teachers possessing masters de-
grees.
The courts attention was called
to previous teachers parity suits,
whereby the courts had ruled un-
animuosly in favor o fthe teach
ers, decreeing that the 'intangi-

End This Custom

Announcement that President Tru-
man and Postmaster General Robert
q. flanagan are soon to select a new
national chairman for the Democratic
party is heartening.
The question is not whether Mr..
Hannegan's duties as postmaster gen.
eral have handicapped his services as
national chairman or vice versa. It is
whether any man. however able, can
competently serve in two highly special
lied executive positions. Our answer
Is that he cannot.
* The precedent long followed of re-
warding the chairman of the national
committee with a post in the Cabinet
is not in the best interests of eithe,
the party (any partly or the govern
ment department over which he pre-.
sides.
1t is to be hoped that with Mr.. Han.
negan's retirement from the party
craftsmanship the custom will come tt
an end.

A Noble Battle

There is almost as much to do over
getting women's dresses down a little
below the knees as their was a quarter
century ago to get them above the
ankles. But there is sounder reason for
the present complaint than for the
charge of immodesty that precipitated
the first battle.
Then it was necessary only to cut a
few inches off the bottom and run a
new hem. Now to be in the mode women
must buy new wardrobes.
Few dresses bought eve in the
early spring of 1947 had the four or
five inch turnup for the rundown
needed to drop skirts to the new
length. And the percentage of Ameri-
can women who can afford entire new
outfits is small indeed, our economics
being what they are.
It is encouraging, therefore to find
many women, singly and in groups,
stubbornly fighting this latest ukase
Of the fashion-setters.

Meat Outlook Improves

Chicago packers say beef and pork
prices have not yet hit the ceiling.
When they do, sometime next month,
it is the packers belief they will drop
back to something like the levels of
other days, and housewives may buy
choice cuts without a qualm. In other
words, the heavy demand of today,
while supply is small, will send prices
higher, but when CRASHED cattle is
rolling into the stockyards and thence
to butcher shops, there will be plenty
of the best beef at reasonable prices.
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-08-26
The demand will remain heavy, but

The demand will remain heavy, but
supplies will increase from 5 to 10 per
cent in September and Is per cent in
October. What is expected to be true
of beef is expected to be true of pork
also. There is already a trickle of
CRASHED cattle coming in and hogs are
reaching stockyards in great numbers
and fatter.
This naturally is good news to a
%carniverous people. But the question
whether the meat appetite of the
masses will be appeased before the
green pastures are seer and the greater
supply carry through the winter. If
the answer is negative, the relief in
sight will be shortlived.

Miss Truman's Debut

While the critics were unkind the
audience was friendly when Miss
Margaret Truman sang in Hollywood
Bowl. Auditors numbering some 49,
Oo0 persons, among whom were Jose
lturbi, Janette Mcdonald, Nelson Eddy,
and other notables in the music world.
called her back time and again. There
must be some quality in her singing
to charm so many.
AS when she made her radio debut
1t seems that in her Hollywood recital
her chief offense was that she has
"bloomed" too early. The more dis
corning critics agreed she has a 900
tentlally good voice." and the Los
Angeles lines reviewer probably came
nearest the truth when he wrote she
needs more experience and a better
teacher"
certainly both of these needs can
oe provided. She must have gained
valuable experience Saturday night and
the United States is fortunate in hav-
Ing teachers unsurpassed anywhere in
the world. 1t is no longer necessary,
or even advisable, to go to Rome OF
Paris or Vienna for voice culture.
What we admire most in Miss Tur-
mai Is her unwillingness to permit the
handicap of being a Presidents daugh-
ter interfere with her personal ambi-
ton. The young woman will go far, in
her own right.
