BLAME CLUB RAID
ON HALL RENTER
ConCord's Board of Directors
Say Outsiders Gave
Show Raided.

The Concord Club, 314 c street, to-
Gay issued a statement pointing out
that none of its members had any con-
nection with the entertainment given
at the clubhouse on March 3 which re-
suited in a raid by the police, the arrest
Of three women entertainers and the
temporary detention of some 200 men,
bers of the audience.
The statement by the board of direc-
tors of the club follows:
AT their last meeting the board of
directors of the Concord Club discussed
the articles which appeared on March
in the local newspapers regarding a
raid. AS these articles apparently Gre
ated the erroneous impression that the
Concord Club itself was raided, the
board deems il necessary to have this
error corrected.
THE club is licensed to rent its halls
and our manager rented our large hall
for that particular night to an outside
organization, under the assurance that
a legitimate social meeting would be
held.
None of our members had the slight
est connection with this affair: none of
them attended that alleged meeting and
the board emphatically declares that it
is unjust and unWarranted to link our
club with this occurrence.
The board of directors shall make
it their duty to use more caution in the
future regarding the renting of the hall
to unknown societies. thus keeping I'M
sullied the fair name of the Concord
Clubhouse
The entertainments arranged by the
Concord Club are of the highest order
and they are attended by our wives and
children and our friends. Being law
abiding citizens. our clubhouse never
has been and never shall be subject to
police interference"
