COCK FIGHT BLOWS UP
WHEN GOVERNOR
STEPS in
Executive Arrives in Person
to See That Big Main Is Not
Staged II Opelousas
HAD APPEALED TO THE
PARISH AUTHORITIES
State Officials Journey to Ope-
Iousas to Find Out That Of
ficiaIs We're on the Job

Governor Ruffin G. Pleasant. ac-
companied BY Adjutant General Hum
ter and a corps Of detectives, arrived
in Opelousas unannounced on last
Sunday morning to personally see
that the contemplated cooking main.
which drew sports Of the steel gaff
from almost every state in the uni
on and some from far-off Canada,
was not staged.
The governor had been notified By
citizens Of Opelousas that the cock
fight sports were getting ready for a
day or several days of pleasure and
appealed to him to stop the fight d
planned for last Sunday. He imme-
diately wired to Sheriff D. n. Fonte-
not to stop the fight and also COM
municated with District Attorney +.
Lee Garland to cooperate with the
sheriff. Not satisfied with this pre-
caution, the governor, with his de-
tectiye force, boarded the fast train
mestbound over the Gulf Coast Lines
and landed here IN the early hours Of
Sunday morning, before any Of the
chicken enthusiasts ever dreamed that
there would be any serious opposi-
ton to their pulling the main off.
Going direct to the home of Sheriff
Fontenot, the governor was notified
that his orders in the premises had
been carried out BY the parish au-
thorities and that the cooking main
would not be held. He remained in
this city, however, until he was sat-
isfied that the main had been called
Ind then boarded a train back for
6n Rouge, satisfied with his days
work IN stopping the sport
Lovers Of the sport from many
states ii the Union and even from
Mexico, Central America and Canada
had journeyed here to participate in
the festivities. It was to be one Of
the best mains ever pulled off here,
and the sports were looking forward
to last Sunday with much anxiety.
The governors order created quite 8
BIT Of excitement and no little eon-
sternation and disappointment il the
camp of the chicken men.
OpeEouaas has been for years the
mecca Of the coek-fighting sport. A
few months back the biggest main ID
the history of the country was pulled
off successfully here. This time, how
ever, the law Of cruelty to animals
was invoked and applied TO the eon-
