1948 Year of
Great Gains for
Negro Nurses
NEW YORK. (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.

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.

“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.”

tal ford 12 days, she rested in
her home in Danbury, Conn. 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.”
