men responded with tear gas bombs
and sawed-off shotguns. Without a
struggle, the prisoners surrendered. It

Reporter-at- Large for The Savannah Daily Times.
CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 9.—WHO-EE-EE!
Well, I finally got located here but for awhile it looked as
though your reporter-at-large was never going to get to the Re
publican national convention to which he has been sent by the
editor of the Savannah Daily Times.
You see, I’ve been assigned to dig out the inside dope of
this big meeting of the G. 0. P. boys for you. And I thought it
was going to be easy I
Listen, I just now located the convention though I arrived
hours and hours ago.
You see, Cleveland is building an exposition here-<the Lake,
Erie Exposition, and the way it looks to me, they’re building it
all over town. When they get it done it should be a dandy—
almost as good as the annual county fair in Hootstown.
Anyway, I started for the convention hall and before I knew
it I was lost in a pile of new buildings and towers and statues of
eagles ad piles of lumber and cement and paint cans and millions
of workmen sawing, hammering, digging, painting, trucking,
sweeping, polishing, washing, spraying, hollering and perspiring.
I kept going ’round and ’round getting nowhere when all of
a sudden I spied a cop.
“Mister,” I pleaded, “I’m looking for that Republican pow
wow.”
“It’s right next door,” he grinned and took my hand, lead
ing me to a building that looks as large as the whole of The Old
Home Town. He shook hands as he said goodbye, and hoped I
wouldn’t get lost in the windy caverns of the great structure.
“Furthermore,” he advised me, “be careful how you stanil
around these exposition grounds. Some workman is liable to
see you and start giving you a new paint job under the impres
sion you are a statue of the Vanishing American. Is that beard
real?”
Wasn’t he polite? Er—wait a minute—l just happened to
think—you wouldn’t say that policeman was kidding me, would
you?

NEW YORK, June 9 (TP)—The
beauty expert, Clara Ogilvie thinks
that technicolor films are going to
place a premium on movie stars with
natural red or blonde hair.
Miss Ogilivie made her prediction
just before hopping on an airplane
for a trip to Hollywood. In Califor
nia she will look after the hair of
Marion Talley, the Kansas girl who
starred in the Metropolitan Opera
before going to the film colony.
The beautician says no amount of
art can disguise drab, dull hair from
the technicolor camera. Synthetic
blondes and artificial titian locks will
be shown up by the pitiless lens. Miss
Ogilivie says that the new technic
will be just as hard on men’s hair
as on women s.

but no beer.”
Things haven’t been going so well
