(ANT). Forty years of fighting to secure equal educational and employment op portunities as well as profes sional status for Negro nurses is the record of the National As sociation of Colored Graduate Nurses. The fight still continues, but the year 1948 shows some phenomenal gains made by the organization. Formerly 17 state nurses as sociations, white, barred Negro nurses from membership, a pre requisite to membership in the | white American Nurses’ associa tion. Now only eight state groups do not admit them. However, in this case, Negro nurses can apply and receive direct individual membership, under a policy voted and approved by the ANA gov erning body last June. Vice-President of the [U.S. and Channing Tobias on Same Program Vice President Alben W.

Seated on the rostrum along with Mr. Barkley were Dr. Channing Tobias and Fannie Hurst, novelist, also guest speak ers on the program. Urban League Boxers Walk Away With 5 Gloves Berths By Fletcher Bell The Urban League boxing team proved itself superior in every division it entered in the 1949 Golden Gloves bouts. Every one of the fighters and their manager and trainer were in there fighting with all their heart. The toughest little man in town apparently is Arnold “Ray” Tarpley, who thrashed an Offutt Field soldier thoroughly in the 112 pound division. Weiland “The Hammer” Tarpley was un opposed in the 118 pound class. Maybe it was just as well for the other fellow since Weiland has just wonrtiis third championship in as many years. In the feather weight division—126 pounds— Dennis “Champ” Stoll, a Lincoln High student boxing under the U. L. colors, fought his way to a championship win over Frank “Killer” King. Bobby “Bad” Finney disposed of everything in the 135 pound division. King was the only U. L. fighter to floor a man in every one of his fights. He beat the favorite who had two knockouts to his credit. Bob Finney got a KO in the first minute of the fight on the first night. Much to our regret the two lightweights were matched in an elimination bout. King had pulled an arm muscle in a fight about half an hour be fore so he and Finney played it cool for two rounds, but the referee thought they played it j too cool. He stopped the fight and called it no contest. Finney was awarded the decision and the championship. Frank “Atomic-p u n c h i ng“ Nevels started his run for the finals with a TKO against his first opponent. The second fight was also unlucky for his oppo nent, who turned a back flip on one of his three trips to the can vas. This gave Frank a crack at the title which he did crack— wide open! Much credit must be given manager Fletcher Bell and trainer Eugene “Frog'’ Graham, who did a swell job of wrapping hands and apparently gave good advice and assistance as seconds. The Urban League pugilists won five out of eight possible championships to win the hand some 18" team trophy which will soon be on display at the league. Of the tfiree remaining classes, the UL boys also had a runner up. So when you see a fellow in his fine gold and blue cham pion’s jacket, you will know that he is one of the toughest guys for his weight in Lincoln. All of the champs are slated to go to Omaha for the state finals in February. Marian Anderson Reveals Story of Secret Throat Operation Last June 30, in Brooklyn NEW YORK. (ANP). Marian Anderson, considered by many the world's greatest contralto, re vealed here last week for the first time the story of an operation on her throat last June 30. This operation, Miss Anderson said, could have ruined not only her singing career, but could have destroyed her life if it had failed. In this throat surgery, she said. Dr. Rudulf Nissen removed a cyst from her esophagus at Jewish hospital in Brooklyn. Telling of her first discovery of the throat illness, Miss Ander son said, “I had been on tour in the West Indies. That was the spring of 1947. It was so hot in Jamaica and Havana that elec tric fans had to be used on the stage. “I returned home completely exhausted and with a sore throat ...I treated the sore throat with the usual remedies. A month passed and it grew worse in stead of better.” Dr. Gustav Bucky called it a throat infection, she said. But during the summer she lost 20 pounds, she continued, and she kept her 1947 fall engagements and 1948 spring dates with great difficulty. Dr. Bucky called in Dr. Nissen, she said, and an X-ray revealed the cyst. “A cyst was removed from the food pipe near the base of my lungs — top of solar plexus, I guess you call it,” she disclosed. ‘‘The operation was very intricate and Had to be performed thru my back. Courtesy Lincoln Journal. MARIAN ANDERSON. “Tubes were inserted in my throat so I could breathe. This, I understand, was an extremely delicate matter. The least devia tion might permanently injure my vocal chords.” After remaining in the hospi BEAL BROS.

And followed the doctors’ instructions of not using her voice. Scheduled to give her opening concert Oct. 13 at Ann Arbor, Mich., Miss Anderson sent for her accompanist, Franz Rupp. She de cided to try a song she had never sung before. ‘T sang it straight thru from be ginning to end without the slight est difficulty,” she said. “After that, I wasn’t afraid.” Miss Anderson kept her date at Ann Arbor. Last week she also sang on the Telephone Hour over the National Broadcasting company radio hookup. She will start a concert tour to last thru April, then will sing in Europe. Of this activity, she exclaimed, “You can’t imagine how happy I am.” WAY'S FURNACE COMPANY AH Kinds of Tin and Furnace Work GAS BURNERS AND FURNACES Home Insulation Furnace Blowers Phone 2-2744 2121-23 O Street Lincoln.
