rio, director of DeCaprio's Band, which

Exposition management, was strongly in
dorsed by the late H. W. Goode. who was
president of the Lewis and Clark Fair:

inent citizens. Mr. DeCaprio had re
ceived every assurance from the James
town Exposition management that a

sumed to have had a strong Influence in
causing the rejection of the application
of the Oregon band leader.
