CIU BOOSTERS ON JOURNEY TO SET CONVENTION Caravan Starts for Fire Chiefs Meeting at Louisville. By Jepson Cadou Timex Staff Corrrxvondent COLUMBUS, lnd., Sept. 28.—Winding through Hooeierland with a message of welcome to Greater Indianapolis, seventy boosters, headed by city officials, stopped here en route to the International Fire Chief’s Association convention in Louisville today. In charge of William T. Bailey, assistant fcity attorney, the municipal caravan of two large busses and ten automobiles left Indianapolis at 8:30 a. m. to capture the 1926 convention of the organization for Indianapolis and to spread the tidings of the city during their stay in Louisville and in Hoosier cities and towns along the route. Brief Halts Made ■ During the morning brief halts were made at Franklin, Seymour, Edinburg and Scottsburg, where Bailey unlooosed some plain and fancy oratory and the Police and Firemen's Band gave concerts. "I want you fellows to know we've got a regular town, and we invite all of you to attend tho big Halloween party we re going to have on the downtown streets,” Baiiey told a delegation of Columbus citizens. The pilgrims were to stop at Crothersville and New Albany on the journey and were expected to arrive at the Hotel Waterson, Indianapolis headquarters, at 4:30 p. m. Chances Good The chances for Indiajiapolis will be enhanced because the United States Chamber of Commerce has awarded it the first prize for effective fire fighting and prevention. Fire Chief John J. O’Brien and Virgil T. Ferguson, head of fire prevention, are drafting plans to sell Indianapo lis to their fellow smoke eaters. Philadelphia and Portland, Ore., are also seeking the convention. The convention will end Friday, but a number of visitors will return before that time. Other city officials on the trip are: Joseph L. Hogue, city controller; Jesse Sissloff, hoard of safety member; Dr. R. V. Converse, police surgeon, and Capt. Fred Drinkut. There is a liberal sprinkling of wives on the excursion. Mayor Shank was expected to make the trip, but at the last minute decided to stay in Indianapolis.
