w0MEN'S AUXILIARY To
LEGION ORGANIZED
Twenty-Five Charter Mem
bers and Plans are Be-
ing Made to Add More

Monday night with TWENTY-FIVE
charter members. The following
officers were elected: Mrs. L. J.
Oldaker, President; Mrs. j. T.
kearney, Vice-president; Miss
Lillian Dyer, Secretary; Mrs. Be.
Jensen, Treasurer. The Executive
Board consists of Mrs. R. A. Lantz.

Mrs. John l. Hensley and Mrs.
George Voss. A membership COM
mlttee was appointed as follows:
Mrs Roy Hensley, Miss Genevieve
Kline, Miss Frances Voss and Miss

The Women's Auxiliary will add
much to the popularity of the
American Legion Association, the
object of the organization being to
assist the boys in their various ac-
tlvlties, serving at their entertain
ments, etc.
Mothers, wives and sisters OF the
boys who were in the world war
are eligible and it is expected that
many more will join. The cause
is worthy and a popular one and
we predict that these two societies
will very soon be the leading organ
lzations of the U. S.
The young men who compose the
personnel of the American Legion
have most surely saved our nation
from disruption and destruction and
they are entitled to the whole
hearted support of every loyal citi-
lzen, who claims the protection of
our flag. The Women's Auxiliary
is an organized effort on the parts
OF wives, mothers and sisters to- do
their part. Is,

by a score of 23-l6. Both teams
missed several easy shots, which
should have counted, this was es-
pecialjy true of the Extra boys.
Nicholson, Cramer and Gardner
played the best game for Audubon,
while Gault, Hunt and Seibert did
the best work for Extra.
Both teams were handicapped by
the decreased size Of the playing
floor due to the immense crowd.
This is a good argument for a bal
cony, which is surely needed to
care for our crowds. Many were
turned away because of the lack of
room to care for them. Lineup:
