THE DETROIT NEWS, Michigan, June 14, 1925 

* Genna Brothers crime family 
* Chicago gangster war
 

This 60+ page newspaper has one column headlines on an inside section, page 24: "POLICE BATTLE THUGS, 3 DEAD" "Chicago Sergeant Avenges the Death of 2 Mates at Hands of Gangsters"

Reports on Genna Brothers fight with Chicago police almost four years prior to the St. Valentine's Day massacre. Though not mentioned here, Al Capone was also involved in this fight.

Other news of the day. Light browning with little margin chipping, otherwise good.
