CELTS SING PRAISES
OF MAYOR ALEXANDER
UNCLE GEORGE is LAUDED AT
CLUB BANQUET
New Head of City Government Asks
for Cooperation of Good Citizens
In Conduct Of Municipal
Affairs

"I have not slept much the past few
nights, wrestling with the question of
giving an efficient chief of police to
Los Angeles, but now that the prob
lem is solved and In a manner believe
satisfactory to all who have the IN
terests of Los Angeles at heart. l can
enter into your festivities with the
proper spirit" These were the open
ing remarks of Mayor George Alexan-
der at the banquet of the Celtic club,
given in the mayors honor at the
Hotel Lankershim last night. Fifty
sturdy men who trace their ancestry
back to the Celts gathered to listen to
speeches and addresses that took them
back to the old days.
Mayor Alexander was introduced by
Malcomb Macleod, president of the Los
Angeles School of Art, as "a man of
principle and not of policy, and a man
of convictions who cannot be con-
verted." In his brief remarks the mayor
said:
"It is traditional that the Scots
never run from trouble. I do not in
vite trouble, but hope that may have
the hearty cooperation of all citizens
In giving Los Angeles an administra-
ton that 1t richly deserves. I may be
stubborn, as has been remarked, but l
am not able to convert although for
six years I had plenty of opportunity
to do so, as a member of the board of
supervisors.
st have opinions which, when think
right, I try to have adopted, and l can
say that in the choosing of chief of
police my opinion was agreed upon.
Preparing for Elks
''Let us all get together and when
the Elks come to Los Angeles this sum-
mer we will show them that they are
being entertained in the best city of the
United States"
President George F. Bovard presided
at the meeting. The speakers were
Chevalier Hector Alliot, who spoke on
"Celtic Art; Frank G. Finlayson,
Joseph Scott and DR.. James M. Dixon.
A song, dedicated to Mayor Alexan-
der and composed and sung by r. G.
Roberts, was feature of the banquet.
1t ran as follows:
Oh, here's to Alexander,
He Is a true born Celt,
He has a strong rght-hander
And lately made 1t felt.
HIS is good fair-player
Since he was but lad.
And when he ran for mayor
He put them to the bad.
CHORUS
oh, here's to Uncle George.
To good old Uncle George;
He is our dandy mayor,
Here's to Uncle George.
Now when there was below
About the city hall,
They wanted some good fellow
To stand for the recall.
They wanted O straight man. sir,
Who to the front would forge
The people gave the answer
And put in Uncle George.
