FAT BANKER GETS CAUGHT
IN BATHHOUSE TURNSTILE
Furnishes Uproarious Half
Hours Comedy fer Crowd Of
- =, Belle Isle Bathers $780,

A large and appreciatiye audience
nished with half hours uproarioHs
entertainment, Tuesday afternoon,
when a portly and perspiring member
of the American Bankers association
got mixed up with the turnstile exit.
and was held prisoner for half hour.
while big German attendant at the
bathhouse added insult to injury
without regard for the personality OF
tho victim.
The iron turnstile works very well
when hathers, leaving the grounds,
make their way through the squirrel
care" one at time.
But the revolving wicket works
only one way. Horizontal iron bars,
fnterlocking with the turnstile, pre-
vent any one from entering through
the exit gate. The portly banker
tried TO reverse the process. He
hravely entered wedged himself
Through as far as the restraining
bars and then pulled the revolving
gate after him. locking himself into
a space that would hardly have been
comfortable for one OF the fashion
able slim figures in tube skirt.
The exit was promptly put out OF
business. Bathers, in a hurry 10 get
home, fjled up TO the gate in long,
restless line, waving their keys and
shouting advice TO the man in the
trap.
Enter the big German attendant,
who took one scornful look at the per
spring banker, and said, "Chackass'
You can I stay In there. Bon yott
see that all these people has got TO
get out?"
But I can't get out" snorted the
banker, a shade of purple suffusing
his face.
Meanwhile young man, who
might have been the bankers private
secretary was industriously tanning
the imprisoned man with his straw
hat.
II say, you know, you can't talk TO
that man like that; he's president of
a bank" said the young man TO the
angry German
well. and he can't stay there in
that gate" said the German
"Chackass. that's what he is. For
why did he try to get in where he
ought 10 get out?" Then, to the
banker: Now you get ont OF these
and don't keep ali these people wait
ing"
The waiting crowd forgot its peev.
ishness In roars OF laughter, while the
banker looked as though he were go
ing 10 suffer an apoplectic stroke al
any minute.
How am going to get out? That 8
lust what want TO do he walled
at the obduTate German.
Climb out the top, that's what,
was the reply. "A chackass last
week did the same thing, and he
climbed out the top.
say Just measure me, and then
measure rfIat f1tTte twU-by-fUUT hOfg
al the top Of this thing and see IL |
can climb out, snOrted the banker.
In rising wrath.
For nearly half hour the plan con.
tinued. while the waiting line mo-
mentarily heightened, the banker
fumed and perspired, his companion
famed him desperately with the
straw hat and the German insisted
ma; he get right out Of there"
Finally some thoughtful person
came with a Stilson wrench, took the
cate all apart. and released the bank
er. who went his way. followed by
the derisiye cheers OF the crowd.
