notice.
Councilman Hall announced he was
preparing TO make a fight against the

cell. He was locked up during a
demonstration of the unit locking sys-

hour later-when the Ad Men had
seen it all and were ready to go.
The invitation to visit the prison
was extended to the club by Warden

was held at the Ansley, after which
the Ad Men went to the prison in au-

was made under the personal guild
