BACHMAN BAND
WILL PLAY HERE
ON OCTOBER q
Million Dollar Musical Organ
ization Being Brought Here
by Legion

One Of Bismarck's outstanding
musical events Of the season will be
the appearance here on October Il
of Bachman's Million Dollar band,
under the auspices Of Lloyd Spetz
of the American Legion. The band
will play matinee at 3:45 p. m,
and the evening concert will begin
at Sis. Both will be at the city
auditorium.
The band has appeared here on at
least two previous occasions and
those who have heard it claim it IS
one Of the best concert bands in the
United States. During recent years
it has been playing IN Florida.
The story of the Million Dollar
band is not only the story Of the
making Of nationally famous band,
but the story Of success of one Of
North Dakota's native sons, Harold
Bachman, director Of the organiza-
ton, whose parents live at Fargo.
The band itself grew out of North
Dakota, and it's director received his
education and incentive i'll North
Dakota institutions.
Although the b. 4 has not been
in Bismarck for several years, its
fame here is known through its ap-
pearance in Chicago OF. radio sta
ton WIS programs, and through
the interest with which it has been
watched since it left here as the
second North Dakota Infantry band.
Plays Popular Program
The standard band numbers are
interspersei with specially arranged
popular tunes Of the hour, liberal
number Of the simple old home
songs and vocal and instrumental
solos by musicians Of the first rank.
Harold Bachman was born IN
Illinois and came North Dakota
when seven year Of age, with his
parents, who moved to homestead
25 miles from the nearest town III
the western part of the state. His
mother. with the aid of n old reed
organ. gave him his first music les
sons and later when he had secured
q cornet from Chicago mail order
house, she a. instructed him.

try school, clerking in store and

Offers Suggestion
II think so, not because Of the dol
lar but because Of the chagrin which
comes with the knowledge that I
have violated an ordinance which !
intended to scrupulously observe.
AS member Of the state safety

tributed my small bit to the cause Of
safety in this state. II is my inter-
est in that work which caused me to
write this letter. Unlike some Of

"Criticism without constructive
suggestion is worthless. My sug-
gestion is that the signs, at least

Flagstaff Man Makes
Get0lOGyfr Bandits

Navajo county officers are search

Thursday morning staged day
light holdup, relieving d. E. Ward Of
Flagstaff of $50 when he stopped
his car on the highway shortly after
9 o'clock in the morning on the Wins
low -TIolbrook road, three miles east
of ST. Joseph.
The robbers, believed to be tramps,
made good their escape, presumably
by picking up ride, although one of
their number was suffering from a
head wound inflicted by Ward when
he struck the man with a wrench, he
reported to Sheriff Divelbess.
One of the bandits fired at Ward
when he welded the wrench which
felled one of their number, the bullet
going through the windshield of his
car, and Ward reported the last he
saw Of the trio two of. them were en-
gagged in reviving their companion
who had been knocked unconscious by
the blow.
In their haste while starching
Ward, the bandits overlooked $285 in
currency which he had in his inside
coat pocket.

at Fast Pace
for Starter
Dempsey, in SeCluSion, Puts
in Heavy Day-Shade
Reports.

81 UHAed Press
CHICAGO, Aug. 25.-Jack Demp-
sey took a strenuous workout
Wednesday in preparation for his
coming title bout with Gene Tun-
ney, surprising friends whom he had
told he intended to take it easy for
another week. and today his plans
for training were a mystery.
The. Wednesday workout, which
consisted Of five miles of road work
in the morning and seven rounds Of
vigorous work with the pulleys,
punching bag and dummy in the
afternoon, was expected to be re-
peated again today.
Dempsey wound up the afternoon
Wednesday with a wrestling match
in which he pushed and pulled Lee
Popple, heavyweight, Tor fifteen
minutes.
The big boy evidently planned to
take advantage of the temporary
seclusion gained by excluding all
but newspaper men from camp.
Monday the gates probably will be
thrown open to the public.
Dave Shade, California middle
weight, has arrived to act as spar
ring partner for Dempsey. The sale
of fight tickets continued at a fast
pace, Tex Richard said. with the
SIS seats most in demand.
