ANTI-BANK NIGHT
BILL is DEFEATED
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel

Raleigh March 10. = The effort
made by Senator Ed c. Flanagan, of
Greenville, Pitt county, to pass a bill
prohibiting moving picture theaters
in the State from holding "bank
nights at which prizes ranging from
$25 to $3.50 in cash are given away to
the holders of the lucky" ticket num-
bers, failed by an overwhelming vote
in the Senate Thursday But it result
ed in producing the most highly en-
tertaining session the Senate has held
so far this year and in bringing about
a true confessions" meeting which
sound more like a Methodist prayer
meeting than a session of a laW-mak-
ing body.
Senator Flanagan maintained that
the "bank nights" held by some NOV
ing picture theaters are not only de-
trimental to the morals Of the younger
people by developing taste for gam
bling, but that they have become
nuisances by attracting so many peo-
pie to the towns and theaters on these
bank mites" as to impede if not ac-
tually block traffic. Another senator
asked Senator Flanagan if these

peOple and the Senator from Pitt re-
Piled:
eyes. they are-I have been in them
some times. But just the same, think
these bank nights should be stopped.
In the course of the discussion of
Senator Flannagan's motion, some
senator mentioned the fact that a
good many of the senators had been
given season passes to most of the
Raleigh moving picture theaters and
limited that this might be a reason for
the opposition to Senator Flannagan's
motion to recall the anti-bank night
bill from the unfavorable calendar
and pass it.
There was an almost immediate
scramble on the part of senators who
had received these complimentary
passes from theater lobbyists to "con-
TESS" they had received these passes
among these being Senator Flan-
nagan-but to say emphatically that
the acceptance of these passes had in
no way influenced their views with
regard to the motion picture theaters
or to bank nights
After many confessions, much
apologizing, laughter and fun, a vote
was taken on the Flanagan motion,
defeating it.

make no attempt to eject the strikers
until he got 600 extra deputies or the
aid of the National Guard.
The strikers continued to defy a
court injunction ordering them to
evacuate. The dispute over exclusive

more than $4,000 Chrysler workers

Lucan Hunter and Big Buck
Graphic to Draav in Woods

Lucan-Anton Macht, mayor OF
Lucan, didn't know his own
strength until his recent deer
hunting trip in nosthern Mime
sofa.
While sitting on a stump daring
anything to come within rifle
range, Macht sighted big buck
which he up and shot. 1t fell to
the ground. Macht waited few
moments, decided the deer was
done for, laid down his rifle and
approached the animal.
Then Mr.. Buck decided he
would not give up without a
struggle. Always ready for tus-
sic, Macht took the deer by the
horns as it got to its feet ready
for anything.
Macht chung to the horns and
the two went round and round. In
one round (Macht doesn't remem-
Der which) he broke the lower
jaw of the deer and in another he
snapped off one of its horns.
The battle was accompanied by
loud walls for help from the may
or and eventually one of his part
ners came TO his aid.
The partner cut the deer's
throat with Macht still frozen to
the horns.

opened in Redwood Falls Wednes-
day evening when the Christmas
decorations were lighted for the
first time, making the downtown
section of the city riot of beau

of coiored lights this season also
adds much to the attractiveness of
the display.
Although the lights really IN
augurate the season. practically
all of the stores and shops were in
holiday trim with gift merchan-
disc on display, including unus-
ually large toy departments, even
before Thanksgiving.

VISITORS DEFEATED
ECHO QUINT IN
LOOSE GAME

'.Not definite, but probable, y
said Coach Wally Zimmerman in
announcing that his starting line
up in the Cardinals first cage
encounter against Morton at the
new high school gym Friday
night will include Elmer Dick
meier and Paul Duea in the for
ward positions, Clarence ,Discher
or Jergen Aarthun at center and
Pooch Lauterbach and Neale
Serkland in the guard spots.
Cy WEIGH, Mert Slocum and
Tommy Crooks will without
doubt see action as forwards, as
will Jim Kohler and Tom VOL
verton at guards. Ross Lussen-
hop is also being groomed for the
center position. Howard Hoff-
man, who plays guard, will be
ineligible for the first game.
The first scrimmage of the
year was held Wednesday when
the varsity played the Junior
High team. In commenting on
his squad, Zimmerman said:
They're a little rusty yet but are
slowly developing. Sometimes I
can see possibilities and again I
wonder. Don't look for a large
score in the Morton game, lack
of experience will keep the count
down"
Morton has the advantage of
six veterans in the lineup and
has played one game so far this
season, defeating Echo % to 16
in a loosely played encounter.
According to Coach Loren Waugh
of the Morton squad, his team is
only fair but will be here Friday
night fighting to win a ball game.
His squad includes Dale Buch-
holz, center, Clifford Daily and
81 Bidinger, guards and Bill
Mattke, forward, all familiar
names from the 1887 "A'' tourna-
ment. Terry Hagen and Earl
Neaburn play at either guard or
forward positions while Raymond
Buckholz is the only new MEM
Der on the squad.
In the first game of the eve
ming, the Junior High team will
meet the Morton second team in
what promises to be good bat
tie. Coach Tom has group of
fast little Cardinals who will
match skill with the much rang
Ter Morton boys.
Junior High players likely to
get the call are Ellis Lang, cent
er, Earl Storts, Norman Otto or
Arthur Neuschwander at for
wards, George Steele, Bill Stems
vad or Gene Rote at guards.
Others who may see action are
Bill Inglis, Bill Hillig, Bert Hus-
tad, John Lauterbach and Jim
Finn.
