FIGHTING BOB'' |S
 HERE ID FIGHT ALL NOT LOYAL ID ]. $.

Fighting Bob" Sawn, p years fightin' seaman, fired his first shots at radicalism in Phoenix yesterday with a stirring address at the Rotary club luncheon. which was received with cheers as the speaker tore into all enc mics of America and especially those who are circulating their doctrines from the street corner soap box.
 In his talks on bolshevism, Fighting Bob" does not mince his words, as all who heard him at the Rotary club luncheon will testify. Such excerpts course: "A proletariat is. in America, a dishwasher who has not the guts to be a cook" Socialism is the self starter of bolshevism" When I refer to a radical as a cootie, I wish to apol- Ogize to the cootie."
 Fighting Bob" was granted his hon. orable discharge from the navy last June after a service of 22 years, which carried him all over the world, where he had ample opportunity to learn of what he speaks. He began his crusade against radicalism immediately after leaving the service and since then has spoken in 11S cities and invaded bol- shevism in it's strongholds. On West Madison street in Chicago, within a half block of Big Bill Haywood's head quarters. he was shot at three times. His greatest pleasure, he stated, was when he knocked Leon Trotsky off a soap box.
 He receives no financial backing from any organization in this crusade. he declares, only the assistance of loyal Americans. After speaking at the Ro- tary club luncheon, Fighting Bob'' spoke at the Osborn school and in the evening addressed a large gathering at First and Washington streets, where he evoked the greatest enthusiasm.
 Fighting Bob" plans to remain in Phoenix for one week, during which time he will make many addresses be fore civic organizations and on the street. Addresses will be made by him at the chamber of commerce greater Phoenix dinner on Monday night at the Wentworth school. before the high school pupils at the high school audi ! torium at o'clock Wednesday morn ing. and at Mesa some evening next week. He also will speak before the kiwanis club at it's luncheon next Tuesday noon at the Y. M. C. A

The result was Come Seven" which MT Broadhurst presented at the Broadhurst theater with Miss Gail I<ain and a great sup porting Broadway cast. From the first performance it was evident that Come Seven was destined to be a success

COME SEvEN'' ID BE
 AT ELKS NEXT WEEK

Everything is set at the EIks theater for the production of Octavus Roy Cohen's screaming laugh success, Come Seven" all next week, starting tomorrow (Sunday). Indications are that it will be one of the biggest weeks in the history of this justifiably pop ular local playhouse.
 Come Seven" is the first all black face play that has ever been released for stock and it is the first time that the majority of the members of the Brandon stock company have ever as- sayed such parts. They are overjoyed at the prospects and promise to give a great performance of this New York laughing success. originally produced by George Broadhurst at the Broad hurst theater, with Miss Gail Kain and a distinguished Broadway company.
 Its story of Come Seven" concerns the complications among a group of typical Southern darkies as the direct result of the theft of a diamond ring and the substitution of a paste spark

 A positive hit in New York. 1t prom ises to be quite as big a success when presented at the ElkS all next week. Better plan to laugh with the hundreds of others who are going to the Elks tomorrow.

Alexander of Tempe testi- fled to the wounds from which the Hintze boy died Owen Teeter, 12- yearold Tempe boy, told of seeing Ro- man run by his fathers store on South Sixth street on the night of the Tempe murders. Roman, he said, turned and shot back as he ran. Young Teeter said he knew it was Roman because he had seen him several times before and had spoken to him on several occasions. He said he limped with the right leg as he ran.
 Virgil Washburn, a Tempe lad, said he heard the shooting and ran out of his home to the front of the Teeter store. Roman. he said. came running down the walk on Sixth street from Mill avenue and after he had passed, fired a shot back toward Mill avenue. He said he had seen Roman once be- fore and knew him by his face and the limp.
 Jesus Rendone, driver of a Tucson the shooting at Calabasas, Ror1en stopped his stage six miles south of Tucson and asked to ride to Nogales. He said the stage was full and and he could not take him. Roman had another Mexican with him, he said.

Here is the sort of picture that simp- ly carries the spectator away, makes him forget that he is sitting in a pie ture theater and think that he is living the lives of those he sees on the screen. This is because the picture is so realis- tic in it's presentation of a Western story of Mexican greasers, cattle rust lers and two-fisted fighting cow puncher that sneers at danger and is always ready to fight for the girl he loves.
 And throughout the thrills and ex citement there runs a love story of deep human interest so take our tip and don't miss seeing Dangerous Trails" at the Plaza today only.
