lice Magistrate Adam Stachowlcz and Mayor Woszctynski are elated. They believe that the town is being vindicated in the eyes of its neighbors by the strenuous battle for civic righteousness. Nothing to do But Nothing. The results of police activity in West Hammond ' during the week end are given, as no attempts, no errors and a score of 1.000. A week ago fourteen were arrested and fined, two being women. Throughout the year police have never failed to find something to do on a Saturday night and therefore the chief is of the opinion that those in Gary and Hammond that patronixe the under-world have learned a lesson. The police maintain that there are no longer dives In West Hammond. WnJte Light Gleam. A few gay spots where men and women congregate still remain, though the district Is closed. Cafes like the Union and Columbia and hotels, such as the Astor and Colonial, are the points of interest. Although not to be recommended as stopping places for local tourists, one of these cakes is not without an atmosphere of Bohemal, whatever Bohemia Is. In the Union cafe an old veteran of the civil war is often found playing sprightly airs on a rickety fife to the faked accompaniment of a rag time pianist.
