They're going to have a “very special” guest list at America’s first
war-time “million-dollar party” next month at the French Lick Springs
' | hotel. ‘
If you get an invitation, it’s*because Tom Taggart, owner of the hotel, is convinced you'll pledge to buy at least $1000 worth of war bonds. For two days—Aug. 14 and 15— 500 guests will “take gver” the hotel and there won’t be a bill for any of it, not even for the meals,
~ No Cover Charge
And there won't be a “cover charge” for the appearance of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, star Hollywood and radio comedians, at the banquet Saturday night. However, the foxy masters of belly-laughs won't go on with their act until after the pledges have been signed. The war savings committee has
clde his mother, Mrs. August Wehr, Milwaukee, Wis.
promised a “snappy” program. Gov-
ernor Schricker, guest of honor, will

Buy Bonds First—Laugh Later
Bud Abbot (left) and Lou Costello, movie and radio comedians, are getting their heads together to provide some new laughs for the
in the sale of $1,000,000 worth of
war bonds Aug. 14 and 15 at French Lick Springs hotel.
» s
That's Tom Taggart's Policy For 'Million-Dollar’ Party
speak. Al Wynkoop, Lebanon newspaperman, will be master of ceremonies. “There’s been nothing like it in the United States,” said Eugene Pulliam, state executive chairman of the war savings staff. “I know of no other hotel or similar institution that has made such a generous and exceedingly practical offer of co-operation. We confidently expect to sell at least a million dollars in bonds at the party, another national record for Indiana.”
You Can’t Crash It
Incidentially, if you have any thought up to this time that you might “crash” the party without the bond pledge, read what Mr. Taggart writes in the official invitation: “I want to make it perfectly clear that you are to be my guest while you are at French Lick. There will be no charge to you for rooms, meals, baths and other customary services of the hotel. Your only obligation will be a commitment to purchase $1000 in war bonds and to have a good time.”
