Representative Drager led the at- tack against the measure, but w:\s rebuffed by Representative Ander- son who spoke his displeasure at Drager’s criticism. “Bum bill?” howled Anderson, “What's bum about it?” Drager said the measure was a ¢z f “passing the buck” to the public, a “subterfuge,” and a case of “being afraid to introduce a re- tail store bill.” Anderson’s comment was, “It's the only democratic method of de- ciding the question. It doesn't look like any liquor legislation is going to get through this Legislature this session, so let the people decide.” Get Off Subject Representatives Siumth and fey retorted allusion to a fish abolition referendum measure killed last session, and endeavored to in- |form Anderson he had voted against that measure Speaker Lyng, however, slapped {his desk with his gavel to bring | order while other Po|ul~<nnmm cried for “keeping to the point.” Smith and Coffey subsided, but Coffey rose again to speak ! “The State of Washington has re tail stores,” he said, “but don’t try to tell me they're a success. because |they're not! Put ih your retail stores here and open the way for |bootleg and graft!” Representative Davis voiced - his distaste “for any legislation that might put Government in business. That sort of thing is a long way from Democratic principle.” Open for Graft Davis also said: “Retail liguor stores open the gates wide for all kinds of graft and liquor costs haven't been reduced, or the con- sumption of liquor. The situation is bad encugh, but don’t make it any worse!” Representative Spencer injected a barb of criticism into the foray that echoed away in levity. “Are you afraid to let the people 'decide?” asked Spencer, “You Cof - DUC THE HEAD HERE IT COMES— WRESTLE ROYAl 'Big Battle of Grapplers - Six in Ring at Once, for Monday Night The boy who wiil serve in the un- enviable role of judge and referee in the colossal “Wrestle Royal” to be served thrill hungry fans at the Elks Hall next Monday night at 8 o'clock, is Bill Byington an old time grappler himself and one well vers- ed in the science of trickery as ex- pounded by the muscle and brawn men. In case there is some misunder- standing about this blood thirsty affair, for the uninitiated let it be explained that Wrestle Royal is a proposition whereby six men enter the ring at the same time and at- tempt by strength, cunning, dirty work, or other means, to eliminate one and another from the arena. The first two out will wrestle in the first match, the next two in the second match. This is in addi- tion to the original mob fracas. This “Holecaust of Humans” prom- ises to be just the thing needed to put a little zip into tired business men. The entertainment will be rough, tough, and rejuvenating. Six of Juneau's top wrestling “bad boys” will participate, as fol- lows: Walter Gaston, Old Mexico Middleweight champ; Billy Spend- love, former Montana Middleweight champ; Gene Eustace, the Hair trig- ger boy from Juneau; “Doc” Webb, Auk’Bay pride; Gordon Muma of Juneau and Al Greenwald. This is Greenwald’s first trick inside the ropes, but he got a good workout last week as the maligned referee in that wrestling event. | thi know, all the brains in the country aren’t in the Legislature!” And at that juncture, genial Rep- resentative Rogge rose to his feet, smiling to say, “I take exception to that remark, Mr. Speaker.

And incidentally she’s got me running in circles which you people down in Texas can help me out of. It started at lunch, when Ann sniffed, then purloined the raw onions from my hamburger. (Considerately, she passed some of her loot back to John Payne, at the next table, with whom she had a love scene in the afternoon.) I don't know that horses like onions, but Annie— Well, it went from onions to the parsley she ordered to kill the odor, and from that to her fondness for taste of bluegrass (Ken- tucky's kind) and for something she calls sheepshare (sheep- shear?), which grows around Dallas and is delightful to eat. Once, said Annie, she saw what looked like it in her yard and tasted it, but it wasn’t right. She also talked about Johnson grass, but when I raised eyebrows she clarified, “Oh, that's for horses —I don't eat it.” But there are two things I'd like. One is to know what sheepshare (?) is because Annie couldn’t spell it and all I can find in the dictionary is sheep-sorrel. And the other is to call on Annie’s Texas friends to airmail her a nosebagful of the suc- culent herb. A nice girl like Annie shouldn’t be denied her appe- tite. Thank you! Lee Tracy and Peggy Shannon, two come-backers, are in “What's a Fixer For?” . . . Peggy is the girl that boomed as Clara Bow's successor, then overlooked too long. . . . But it's Louis Roth 1 want to tell about now: Louis is in his sixties, and a grand- ahighspotinyourday... That's luncheon time at PERCY'S. That big plate lunch served there daily for only forty cents is just the ticket to send you back to your work wnh @ new father, and he's been taming lions some 40 years. . . . In Ehl.s picture he does a taming routine, doubling for Peggy (via red curly wig), and it’s all very exciting, the way he cracks his whip and shoots his pistol to keep the lions in order. . . . But after a take he forgets the whip and pistol and goes up and pets the toothy - critters and talks baby-talk to them, and they all but purr. . . . He might have done it that way for the film, but Director Lew Landers thought they'd better make it look more exciting to show that Heroine Peggy is a big, brave girl. . . . And if's all sad, when the real thing won't do—for the realistic movies.
