Vandals Go
On Rampage
In Browning

The worst case of vandalism
that has occurred in Browning in
many months took place about
300 O'Clock this (Friday) morning,
when several plate glass windows
were smashed, fences torn down,
and other criminal damage done
to property that is repeatedly un.
equallcd in the towns history.
The Glacier Reporter was one
Of the victims of the dastardly
operations of the criminal or
criminals. The big plate glass
window in the front of the Re.
porter building was smashed by
rock weighing more than four
pounds, indicating that ii was the
work of grown-ups rather than ir-
responsible youngsters.
Also the big plate glass window
on the south side of the IIannc-
man building, on the corner east
of the Reporter building. was
ruined by big rock thrown
through the window. The lIanne-
man damage was even greater
than that suffered by the Report
or, for the rock went through and
smashed a show case on the in.
side. and perhaps did some dam
age to merchandise.
The picket fence on the east
side of the Beck funeral home.
the property Immediately joining
the Reporter building. was badly
damaged. pickcts being torn off
and posts broken.
The outrage occurred around
three O'Clock this morning. while
the streets lights were Temperate
ly off for some time. the police
report.
Financial loss will be consider
able to the property owners. and
the mere fact that such wanton
destruction of property can occur
in civilized community is a
serious reflection on the city. and
points up the often repeated
charge Of lack of proper control
of Law viOlators on the rcserva.
ton because of the confused and
dual system of law enforcement.
and jourisdiction of the courts.
Police officers are working on
the case. and have some clues to
work on. but apprcncnding the
criminal. or criminals. is indeed
difficult.

T0dd's Steak House. was also
burslarizcd during the night. il
is reported. and about $500 worth
of merchandise was taken. il is
reported.
There may have been other dc.
prcdatiOns yet to be uncovered.
II is also reported that a pick.
up with two or three hundred
dollars worth Of tools. supposedly
stolen. was seized by the police
in front of Conway's Steak House

last night that it would be rash
to approve or disapprove the

Although 1t favors the idea Of

The citizens also asked that

StokoWsH Levels UIfifnoturn
Against Dr0peries at Concert

Conductor Leopold Stokowski
has handed down an ultimatum
about the curtains he finds so
pesky at the back Of Constitu-
ton Halls stage.
Unless the draperies are pulled
back. he declared last night. he
will not conduct the National
Symphony Orchestra concert
tomorrow night as scheduled.
Mr.. Stokowski told Bryson
Rash during an interview on
The Stars Television Station
/ WMAL-TV that the curtains
ruin the acoustics in the hall.
He said he has been protesting
them for years.
Manager Is Adamant.
Harold Maynard. manager OF
the hall for the Daughters of
the American Revolution. said
he did not intend to pull the
drapes back unless somebody
high UP in the OAR ordered it.
II he pulls the draperies back
for Mr.. StokowSki, he said. he
will have to do it for everybody
else who uses the hall. This
would mean exposing q movie
screen which would be an eye
sore. he explained.
Besides. said Mr.. Maynard. the
screen might be damaged. The
screen is owned by the National
Geographic Society and used for
the society's lecture programs.
Mr.. Stokowski said on the tele-
vision show that his ultimatum
followed years and years of
protesting" the curtain. He said
he had been patient about it for
10 or IL years.
He said that concerts are
spoiled because the tone is dis
torted by the draperies. The
tone is made to sound dull and
dead" and has no bloom" on
1t, the conductor said.
"All they have to do is to open
that curtain on the stage" he
said. Il begged them this morn
