%, was huge success financially as
weli as from the standpoint of enter
tainment. 1t was attended by over
three hundred of Wauwatosa's busi-
ness and professional men and when
they were all seated for dinner not
vacant chair remained. An excellent
chicken dinner vas served to the
strains of Jack Ryan's jazz Orchestra.

given. Judge" Harry Morton pre-
sided over real bar and imposed
fines on prominent citizens for vari-
Gus otfeuses. Chas. Ragsdale, as the
Districs & ttorney, in spite of the noble
efforts of defendants attorney, Chas.
B. Perry, succeeded in convicting all
who We're pinched by police officers,
Graham and Peacock. Will Hunter, in
character songs, one of which he
claimed was written by Jim Godfrey,
was greatly enjoyed, and Carl
Schmidt as a ballet dancer was a
scream.

the evening was due TO the activities
Of the ticket sellers who sold chances
to the men on all sorts of "plunder''
from jack-lnife to d ton of coal.
