PASTOR AT AMES is
AGAINST POOL HALL

Ames, Jan. 81. - The concerted eff.
fort of Ames students and t~ownspeople
to procure a permit for a bowling alley
and billiard room in the new hotel
here has struck the rocks. BY investi-
cation 1t was found that every lodge
and club Don in the town maintained
at least one green topped table and six
Ames residents have billiard tables In
the homes; but the privilege is to be
denied to the public at large. The
only outcome OF the campaign iss said
to be the installment Of q rest room In
a local church.
Mayor Farley Sheldon has taken the
following stand: Il am not in favor OF
a pool hall and bowling alleys. We
have had them and we could hear them
for blocks. If the council wants to
grant a permit they will have to get
rid of me. There will not be any such
things In the new hotel"
Business men Of the town have voic-
ed conflicting opinions regarding the
outcome Of such a step.
