GARY POLICE START STRICT
CAMPAIGN
That the Gary police department intends to see that the new parkins ordinance is to be obeyed was in evldenc; over the week-end when nearly twenty violators were placed under arrest. Aireft sheets show that the majority reside outside, of the city, a number were uary residents. When tht ordinance went into effect several weeks agf, it was thought advisQ'nle. to give the autotsts sufficient time ui acquaint themse!ts with it and not b-- too drastic. Now every driver ought '. - know whether or not he is violating hi law and henceforth the police intend to see that it is enforced. All violators are to be treated alike, no matter who they are or where they live. "Do not park here" signs are in eviene at all the. street intersection in t!v business district on Broadway and why the autoists insist on parkin fn the prohibited area, is a mystery to the authorities. As long as they violate this ordinance, the police are going to wage war atainst the practice. Acting upon instructions, the patrolmen started the campaign Saturday m;rning. The following were arrested s::d the.ir cases will come up before Judge Dunn in the c:ty court today: Edward Citz. FYeeport. II!.. arrested at Fifth and Broadway. Ouo Larson. 103 Garfield blvd..

M"7icn Sells-Floto circus paraded in Gary over two hours late Saturday noon they disappointed thousands of people who packed Broadway early In the morning. The parade was scheduled for 11 o'clock, but did not make its appearance until nearly two. After standing on the streets for hours and stretching their necks out of office, windows, the jajn of people botame impatient and went to their home, thinking the parade was not going to
put in its appearance. Only a small I
scattering of people were present when they did show up and on account of it being so close to the show hour the parade was not up to the standard at it was cut in almost half.

" Many who saw Dempsey for the first time were disappointed as they had expected to see a huv bulk of a man, a giant in stature. They could not appreciate, how the demon battler could drop Jess for seven times in three rounds. Ja'K is the quiet, unassuming fellow that his pictures show him. and a gentlemen in every detail. The circus played two performances and capacity houses filled the huge three-ring canvass both in the afternoon and evening. Familiar faces dotted the circle from all oer the county.
