Last night hot. Those mil- lion lights were hot, too, burning crazy rainbows and white spots on the eyes. I meandered along, stopping to gawk. Everybody else did, too. Broadway's a great street for hicks, Sophie.

I couldn’t tell, from the lobby display, if it was Coogan or Betty Grable or Charlie Chaplin, but I figured at last must be Coogan. And the most touching thing, Sophie.

CHICACO, July 29.—A boy who wanted to make his old 12-key ac- cordion look like one with 48 ke; had the city hall jittery for five weeks. Police, WPA workers and city employees spent a hectic time try- ing to catch the person who un- screwed - elevator sigual butt on the fourth, sixth, tenth and other floors during that time—av- eraging a button a day. Finally an elevator operator nabbed the lad and turned him over to the police, but he was not arrested. “I wanted an accordian with 48 keys but couldn’t buy one. The elevator buttons looked just like keys when I glued them on my a cordion,” he explained. D The only Indian reservation | Texas is near Livingston.
