GAMBLERS REFUSE SHAKEDOWN BY MYRICK
KEEN MEMORIES OF LOCAL ‘SPORTS’
FOIL PLANS OF KEYNOTER TO
RAISE FUND OF ONLY $2,500
NOT SO DUMB THIS YEAR AS THEY WERE IN 1932 WHEN
$4,750 WAS KICKED IN “TO NO AVAIL”
Keynoter Myrick allegedly up to
his old tricks again of trying to shake
down the gamblers in the city of Sa
vannah met with defeat not so many
days ago.
It is reported that the Keynoter in
an attempt to raise cash under the
guise of putting votes on the books
for the state election in order to elect
Talmadge to the United States sen
ate and in order to place Redwine in
the governors chair of Georgia sent
out a few of his henchmen to call
on the gamblers of Savannah to
“kick in” $2,500 so that he could
put this many more votes on the reg
istrar books in order that they could
vote in the September primary. For
this money Keynoter was sending
around the word to the boys that for
the money given to him he in turn
would open up the city for them to
carry on their gambling without being
molested, the reports claim.
Father time had not failed to re
mind the gamblers that in 1932 they
had given Keynoter Myrick and his
cohort “Jelly Fish” Gamble $4,750
for the privilege of operating various
gambling games and devices in the
city and that as soon as these two
were inaugurated in their respective
offices they failed to carry out their
pledges to the donors of the forty
seven hundred and fifty dollars but
instead put them out of business.
Have Keen Memories
The gamblers checking a little deep
er into the matter of givmg this
money to Keynoter for the above
Stated purpose found that it was only
a few days left before the registration
books closed and that in order to
vote in the state primary that the

TROMBONE PLAYER
MANY YEAR? OF PRACTICE
REWARDS MUSIC
ARTIST
Tommy Dorsey's renown as a trom
bone manipulator is not the reward
of a single season’s popularity, ‘but
has come to him through years of
study and practice on his chosen in
strument, commencing at the tender
age of 8 years.
Dorsey’s first profesional engage
ment was with Jean Goldkette’s Or
chestra in Detroit in 1924. From
then on his rise was rapid, until he
organized his own orchestra and se
cured the featured assignment in the
Broadway musical, “Everybody’s Wel
come.”
Coming to Savannah direct from
the steel pier in Atlantic City, Dor
sey’s is one of the biggest attractions
ever to come to Tybrisa, and is al
ready drawing crowds from cities
even outside the Savannah area. His
12-day engagement at Savannah
Beach is already showing promise of
being the busiest fortnight of the
season for the island resort.

books had been closed for some
months and that: they could not now
register for the state election at this
late date.
Keynoter Myrick having been noti
fied of the above findings of the
gamblers sent them word back that
he could still get them fixed so that
they could vote if they would only
put up the money asked for by him
through his henchmen. The gamblers
knowing that Keynoter and Jelly Fish
Gamble had doubled crossed them
many times before refused to kick in
as requested.
Not So Duma
Keynoter Myrick failed to realize
that some of the gamblers in Savan
nah were not as dumb as ie had at
first thought and found out for him
self that the boys were aware of the
fact that Myrick was trying to get
$2,500 for himself to put votes on the
city books for the city primary in
December and not for ths state elec
tion as he had painted the picture.
It could not be that Keynoter is ieel
ing that in order to place himself and
Gamble back in office that he is going
to have to shake the boys down a
Uttle and put more votes or the books
for himself?
The story goes that the gamblers
refused to kick In for the exception
of one, who is well known in Savan
anh as eynoter’s pet puppet and
henchmen. Because of his present lo
cation and gambling activities was
afraid to go counter to Keynoter’s re
quest. This man is reported to be
staying with Myrick "politically” only
for' the sake of protection as he is
continuing to operate his gambling ac
tivities under the present 1 -ghly pub
lizied anti-gambling campaign.
