BARBERS KEEP BATE BOOKS FOR Mere Male May Have to Sign Up Week in Advance for a Shave. “Gimme a shave quick,” cried out a slightly bewhiSkered man as he rushed into a downtown barber shop this morning. “Sorry, but our chairs .are all taken for the rest of the week,” replied the head barber. "Let me look at the engagement book.” Business of rapidly running through book. “Here's an open date. Miss Jones cancelled her engagement for a hsir bob in chair No. 4 at 11:30 a. m. a week from Thursday. Come in and get your shave. You certainly are fortunate in getting so early a date. Had it not been for the can celled engagement you would have had to wait two weeks.” “A week from Thursday for a shave." wailed the mere male, with the affronting whiskers as he sang into a chair. “Why, by that time I’ll look like a cross between the House of David and the hairy, Tibetan^yak.” Reached for a Paper—but— Through force of habit he reached for a paper and got—a fashion magazine. Through dazed eyes he looked about him. Four of the eight chairs were occupied by members of a sex formerly* as rare in a barber shop as an oyster in a church supper stew. Vaguely he heard the head barber answer one telephone call after another. “Hello. Oh. Miss Smithson! Yes, I will make an appointment for Eddie to bob your hair at 2 p. m. two weeks from today. y “Yes, Mrs. Rogers. What’s that? Jim to bob your hair a week from Friday at 10 a. m. I ;yri very sorry, but he has an engagement for that hour. How about 9 o'clock. All right, s we’ll make it that hour." How Delilah Changed From the corner of a room a phonograph grouncr out the dulcet strains of “Delilah Once Out Sim son's Hair, But Now She Bobs Her Own.” The mere male with the sprouting facial hedge staggered to his feet and headed for the door, soliloquizing: "This means the old family razor for min*. Chased from our last refuge. the barber shop! P’ashion magazines replacing the pirfk lure of the Police Gazette! Ye Gods! No more prize fight, political or baseball dope. Nothing but a lot of clatter about" teas and matinees and mah-jongg. I wish Jhe old-time saloon was back. Maybe we could find refuge there. ’Sno Use, Brother “But that would be the same, either. The women would be in there, too, high slippered shoes or. brass rails along with the men, the bar littered up with lip sticks, compacts and powder puffs.” / And he wandered out into a colorful, feminine world to buy a news, paper from p, newsgirl, he bumped off the sidewalk by a. woman cop and chased out of safety zone by flapper in a sporty crimson roadster. “And they say it’s a man’s world,” he mourned. VOTE CONTEST IS HEARD Recount in Committeeman Election Diifers Front Official Tab. Contest to determine whether Emanuel Wetter, deputy county auditor, should have been declared elected Republican precinct committeeman of the Ninth precinct. Thirteenth ward, instead of Fred S. Beck, deputy, city smoke inspector, was begun today before county commissioners. Wetter charges he was elected by a vote of 228 to 140, the figures reached in a recount held in circuit court.. Official returns certified-by the precinct election board showed Eeck elected by a vote of 197 to 184. Gas Plant to Be 'Abandoned The public service commission has ordered abandonment of a natural gas plant at Greensburg operated by John E. and Elizabeth C. Robbins. Thomas J. Duncan and others petitioned against the abandonment but a hearing showed evidence to the effect that continued operation was uneconomical.

Backers of the plan propose to remodel the old Fine Arts Bldg., left by the World’s Fair in Jackson Park and make it the leading auditorium of the nation —one that would attrac' hundreds of thousands of people o Chicago annually. Citizens of the south side are ex- | pected to vote June 2 on a large bond j issue, part of which would provide | funds for the colossal project.

The main building at j present has appproximately 150,000 j square feet of floor space. It has j two large wings which could be use.? j for art and commercial exhibits.

BOARD STUDIES POLICE SURVEY Report of Chamber Expert Reaches Safety Body, First copies’ of Leonard V. Harrison’s police survey reached the board of safety rrfembers today. The report will be studied in detail before the hoard takes action, Ernest L. Kingston, president, said. Harrison conducted the survey for the Chamber of Commerce after Chief Rikhoff had asked for 100 more policeman. The survey recommends elimination of many officers at headquarters, consolidation of duties. Mayor Shank has recommended that the report be ignored. The board- accepted resignation of Trafficman Roy Lacey and appointed Jack E. Hart as a patrolman. Detective Sergeant John M. Mosby was reduced to a patrolman and Patrolman Thomas Hopson was piomoted to detective sergeant. HOOVER SOUGHT AS RUNNING MATE (Continued From Page 1) expecting delegates are beginning to think he has it all arranged for them to decide it the way he and the President want it decided. Sledding Is Hard The plan to have Hoover named j had been having hard sledding, i Hoover’s objections would’nt down, • The President wasn’t able to draft I him. How then bring it to pass. | Let the delegates decide, Butler i suggested—let the delegates decide ion Hoover. Hoover would find it j hard to resist both the President and the delegates. So the word i went out that It was to be the convention's own free-for-all contest. All day yesterday representatives ! from various delegations called on Butler. They asked him, in effect, !if the vice presidency fight was a private fight or if anybody could get ; in. They were told that it was not a ('private fight, and . hurried back to their respective headquarters and j started whooping it up for their ; favorite sons. lowa renewed its yip for Repre- ; sentative J. J. Dickinson, with Representative J. W. Good as its second | choice. Nebraska met secretly and | swore loyalty to Charles G. Dawes [ until hell ar and Maria freezes over. . Washington started an argument ; with itself as to whether it ought to j come right out and say it wants i Wesley L. Jones, her senior United j States Senator, for the job. Utah I threw Gen. Frank Thines’ tin hat into the ring and Indiana annouced it was not clear sailing for Senator Jim Watson. >* Sure They'll Decide All, of which assured a lot. of well known names before the convention on the first ballot or so and carried out the idea that the delegates were to do the deciding. Meantime, the word that Hoover was beginning to he reasonable was wasn't so thickly spread as to cause a -wtamjpede, which was the very thing to he avoided. That would cause simple folks to say Coolidge had personally named his running mate. It was spread jqst thickly enough to keep the very real Hoover I sentiment "alive against the time when the Secretary of Commerce himself will say that no man is bigger than his party and if called upon by the convention to do will make the race. This exhibition of old guard tactics by Butler amused, but did not mollify the old guardsmen themselves. While they continued today to go through the motions of being a part of the convention they didn't fool themselves and didn't try very hard to fool anybody else. Some of them were very open about it. They made it a jest. They told that-two new clubs have been organized among themselves—one the “Go-as-Far-as-You-Like Club" and the other, the "Don’t-Give-a-Damn Club.” Riding for Fall The slogan of the clubs, so the jesting old guardsmen said, is “Let Butler Alone; Let Him Bump Himself All the Way Qownstairs.” They tell one another that Butler is riding for a fall, that it won't be long until he discovered his need for the old-time salwarts and then the old guard can take its job back again. One of them went so far as to say that he was glad to he out of It this year, that the party was facing defeat at the polls in November, and that it would be nice to have Butler to blame. Other developments of the first convention day included a conclusion reached by the resolutions committee (William H. Butler) that the platform should declare itself in favor of law enforcement. This satisfies the Anti-Saloon League, which has been preparing to resist demands ;of the league for beer and light i wines. And association opposed to I the prohibition amendment and j Ralph Beaver Strassburger for some i commitment in favor of modifying the Volstead act. The resolutions committee also decided that he doesn't believe It is necessary to drag the Ku-Klux Klan issue into this campaign. It isn't a political question, Butler Is said to have said, and is to be left for the various States to do as they please | with it. " OL’ RAGS AND IRON Woman Recognizes Jnnk Dealer and Has Him Arrested. John Wilhelm, 69, of 3038 W. Vermont St., has his own vrcfcy of singing “rags and ol’ iron.” Mrs. Donald Caster, 55 N.
