In the first place Shelby is less than
forty miles from the Canadian border
and is located on a north-and-south
highway that has been noted since
1919 for it's whisky-running traffic.
The town also is virtually on the
border of the Blackfeet Indian res
ervation and is visited continually by
red men. 1t is an old COW town and
never has outgrown its free and easy
ways. Add to all this its overnight
growth as an oil-boom town. which
has attracted hundreds of adventur-
ers from all parts of the world, and
il is easily understood why IL can ap-
pear to be wilder than.it actually is.
OF course. all kinds of cabarets and
dance halls have been built since the
bout between Dempsey and Gibbons
was signed up in anticipation of brisk
/ business Immediately preceding and
following the fight, and ii is true that
these have been erected with the view
of giving the atmosphere of a frontier
town in the early days, but prohibi-
tion officers have been vigilant, and
so far no fragrant violation of law has
been noticed.
