Typical shot: a dying gangster stiffening in the arms of a society girl with whom he was dancing when shot...
...Washington, a Mrs. Mates posed last week for press photographers with her son, Henry Mates. He. aged five, was bald as an egg. She said that a fox-terrier puppy had jumped at him, scared him. Within six hours all his hair dropped...
