 EZRA Band Concert
 There was a good attendance at the concert which was presented by the EZRA Band at Sprague school gymnasium last night and those present enjoyed the excellent concert which was directed by Cos mo Vendetti. The grou spof 40 well trained bandsmen gave a well balanced program of members all of which were played with great skill and excellent interpretation.
 The program contained selec- tions aimed to appeal to all musi- cal tastes. There were stirring marches including the Salute to Uncle Sam" and the popular stars and Stripes Forever" by SOusa, as we'll as others. To those who like classical numbers there were the well-known Poet and Peasant" overture and Atlanta" The de- scriptive numbers Graveyard Ghosts" and "The Death of Gus ter" were well received, particular ly the latter. and the popular mem- bers Pop Goes Your Heart" Rain and "Dinah" satisfied the young generation, The program opened with America" and closed with "The Star Spangled Banner" Mir Venedette received many we'll deserved compliments for this ex- ceNent entertainment. It is to be regretted that more local people did not avail themselves of the un- usual opportunity of hearing this fire concert which was presented without cost to the community un- der the auspices of the Casper Davis post of the American Legion. The concert was a part of the posts program of community service.

 From AAA's birth, Frank and Howe led the fight to prevent AAA from being prostiuted by food in- dustries which hopened for big profits at expense of consumers out of a program designed to relieve farmers. They had Tugwelrs sup port.

Food industries declared war on all three, promising in some cases to 'gct them" These industries
 were supported by subsidized leaG- CTS of farm organizations and 0 l strong AAA group.
 Ever eat canned asparagus? Well renewal of the canned as- paragus agreement was the big l fight immediately before tho purge. Howe's men said AAA must have a strong books and rec ords clause in the agreement be- l cause, while 1t appeared likely growers were being injured and consumers gyppcd on that aspara- gus, AAA's crop section had no real data on 1t.
 Davis and other AAA officials cried "obstructionists!" clamoring | tor harmony at all costs. Howe lnd his men refused to recede. Wallace backed them up when the agreement reached him for sigma ture.
 Meanwhile Frank, also differing
 with Davis as to books and records clauses and seeking a strong H. ccnse clause in the proposed AAA amendments which would let him win AAA decisions in the courts, was having his troubles with Davis. Showdown Beats Frank He insisted that when adminis- trative policies gave rise to legal problems that might react against AAA, administrators should be guided by legal counsel.
 The final Frank-Davis blow-up came over relatively minor mat ter. a
 Davis told Wallace he must choose. He himself must have a free hand, which meant removal of
 Frank and Howe, or he'd quit. Wallace consented reluctantly. Da- wis had most processors of food and many so-called farm leaders behind him and Wallace couldn't afford an administrative explosion with Congress here.

An attendance of 1900 is antici- pated for the second presentation of St. Joseph's orphanage benefit minstrels at the parish hall tonight. Director John w. Stokes announced this morning that all preparations have been completed and that the curtain will reveal beautifully decorated setting and splendid cast at 8 D. m. Although a few seats were reserved in advance of the original production last week 1t was also announced that this practice has been discontinued and people are to be accommodated in the order in which they appear. The workers who act in the capaci- ty of usherettes and hall assistants have been asked to report to Vic tor Danisavage at 6:45 o'clock.
 The stage presentation will be the same as shown at the splendid show given a week ago, for the same entertainers are to be heard from and all are prepared to dup licate their fine performance. Im- mediately following the entertain ment there will be more than two full hours devoted to a novelty St. Valentines day dance which will hold lovers of the light fantastics interested for the complete evening. Brinkman will furnish the music.
 The principals of the cast will appear in the following order: Helen Jokubaitis, Edward Digimas and Cal Markevicius, John A. Kel- ley, Anthony Redvilas, Down in the Valley" by pianist Dennis Moore, Mrs. Stephanie Sapranas, Earle Lallier and Florence Gall got, Bob Morrissey, Misses Lang & Petrosky, Edward Zuyus, "Bells of St. Marys" ensemble; Charles Con- ner, Mrs. Edward Stevens, William O'Brien.

 Rex in Saddle
 Tugwell will sit in the new AAA operating council in which other high officials had insisted he would have no part. His close friend and associate, Dr Calvin Hoover, will be the new consumers counsel.
 The AAA legal staff, formerly under Davis, now will be under Tugwell. Dr Thomas c. Blaisdell, whom Tugwell brought to Wash ington, becomes head of the Ma. tional Emergency Councils con- sumer suit. Howe remains as the AAA's consumer contact official. Frank had been offered the job of handling AAA cases for the De- partment of Justice, which would place him in strong strategic DO. sition in respect to AAA. So within 48 hours the conserva- tives-and possibly Wallace hiyn- self-became the ones to be fab bergasted. Copyright, 1895, NEA Service, Inc.

solo count Of the city, TAB. Lead
ing off for the L. S. Ayres & Co.,
who ran into a lot of grief, despite
the fact they turned in the outstand-
ing team total of the evening, Bru-
not connected for games of 256, 231
and 226 Joe Michaelis, another
Ayres member, turned in a 632, and
the combined efforts of the hard
hitting pair helped produce a 1920
total, but the team won only one
game over the opposing Marmon-
Harrington, which had Walt Heck
mans $40 and Nan Schott's GIG as
its feature counts. The losers, in
compiling their big series, had games
of 1895, 1925 and $50, while the Mar
mons reached 1915 on 924, 1047 and
1904.
When John Blue put a 667 along
side of Leo Ahearn's 662, the Lieber
Brewers totaled 3006 and took
double victory over Cooks Gold
blume. 1t was the first series the
Blumes have lost during their In
dianapolis loop appearances this
season. Games of 1920, 1908 and
983 gave the Brewers their big
total. Jess Pritchett Sr. with SAT
was the only member of the Cook
men to pass 600.
Hardin Continues Streak
Jerry O'Grady, who has been on
the sidelines for several weeks with
broken arm, got back into the
Lieber Lager lineup and led the
team to a tWo-game win over Ster-
ling Beer with COG. Percy Henry
helped the winners along with 6O2,
while Roy Haislup with 629 and
Raymond Fox with SIG paced the
losers.
Carl Hardin continued his dyna-
hitting tactics that carried him to
pair of bulging counts last week,
when he posted a 674 that was good
for the city-Wide runnerup position.
Games of 204, 233 and 237 carried
him over. Red Mounts and Joe
Fulton, mates of Hardin on the
Falls City Hi-Bru, joined him with
totals of 618 and SOB to give that
team 3010 and an odd-game de-
cision over Klees Set Up. No mem
bers of losers passed 600, although
