Fisher, vice president from Sears, pre-

PRETZEL ALLEY TO
HOLD BANQUET HERE
Coming Feast and Election Is Sched-
uled as a Tri-City At
fair.

Pretzel Alley, city hall, office of
the mayor, Davenport, Iowa, March
3.-That the annual banquet and
feast of good cheer which Is to be
pulled OF by the Pretzel Alley contin-
gent on the evening of Saturday,
March 26, will be held in Rock Is
land, is the latest development in the
arrangements for the affair, which
are now well under way. Owing to
the existing conditions in Davenport
relative to the conducting of events
of a somewhat similar nature, precip-
itated by the recent actions of the
civic federation, 1t is thought that 1t
would not be consistent with the
plans Of the alley municipal officers
to hold the event in this city. Inas-
much as Rock Island has made a
strong bid for the entertainment and
in view of the fact that the alley is
intending to make the event tri-city
affair, 1t is settled that the gathering
will be scheduled for that city on the
date now set. From advance fndica-
tions, If such may be taken as a cri-
terion, the annual gathering of the
alley population, and those outside
the circle as guests Of the municipal
ity, will be one of the largest in the
history of the thriving common
wealth.
