In closing his decision, Judge

criticism was based solely upon de-
cided cases. He points out that Ii

LEGISLATIVE PAY
RAISE STANDS
Rehearing in Case Denied
by Supreme Court.

Final settlement of the Legislative
pay case was made by the suprems
Court late Friday. when petition for
rehearing of Attorney General
Arthur L. Gilliom was denied
This assures the members of the
1927 Legislature the $40 a day Yay
which they voted themselves and
which the Attorney General and the
Marion County Circuit Court held
was unconstitutional
In denying rehearing, the court
concurred in an opinion written ~
Judge Clarence r.. Martin. It
pointed out that $40 day was net
excessive for Indiana legislators un-
der the present high cost of living.
Constitutionality was referred Ia
only by pointing out that the Con-
stitution provided that the legis-
lators should be paid a reasonable
sum.
Gilliom based his case on the con-
stitutional provision that legislators
may not raise their own pay.

Indiana to
Haze ReUne

Charley Calvert, the master Of
ceremonies in Boris Petroff's Sports
Revue" at the Indiana next week,
literally boxed his way to stage
career. Ten years ago he started
as card boy back stage. Gradually
the lure of the footlights caught him
and he decided to become an actor.
Eddie Leonard taught him his first
dance steps and encouraged him in
his upward climb. Then the war
came, but he did not forget his early
ambition. He took on important
role in "You Know Me AL" which
was produced by the troupe of A.
E. F. boys in France. He also boxed
during the war and for short time
held the Divisional welterweight
title.
After the war he returned to the
stage to continue very promising
career. He has appeared with such
international artists as Eva Tanguay
and Sophie Tucker. For three years
he has been connected with the
Paramount organization and is now
under the management of Publix
Theatres Corporation.
One of his most entertaining
specialties is the imitation of jazz
band.
