Ken Noble wanted to know if the
men being considered" were
capable of carrying out the
Leagues program, if they we're
known prominently enough to get
elected.
Myers said he thought so. He
said the men the League was
looking for were men who had
taken an active part in the city's
civic welfare, and perhaps they
were in business and had shown
by acts and deeds that they earn
estly were progressive and wanted
to get ahead.
Bunny Hines was doubtful about
the veterans faith in the organiza-

veterans have any faith in this
