Congressman Hiwley, urging the practice of rigid economy in govern mental affairs all down the line, and that the County Chamber and other chambers in the county be requested to take the same action. The publicity committee was re quested to attend a meeting at the Chandler Hotel in Marshfield next Wednesday, called by the American Legion, to formulate plans for secur ing the maximum amount of travel over the Coast Highway by Legion members from CaKforia, Nevada, New Mexieo.i Arisona and Texas, who will be going to Portland for the national Legion convention in September. J. E. Nqrton and Geo. R. Dickinson reported on the largely attended County Chamber of Commerce meet ing in Bandon, Monday evening. One request presented by Gold Beach was for a 3300 contribution by Coos coun ty to aid in financing the Rogue river bridge dedication in May. The re quest was referred to the several chambers in the county for individual contributions. The county chamber was also re quested to co-operate in the efforts to secure a Grants Paas to Illahe to Powers road, with another branch continuing down the Rogue from Illahe to Gold Beach. It was not ex pected the road could be started this year, but wvith forest funds entering largely into the construction costs when it is built, it is desirable to get the proposition lined up as soon as possible and have the project included in the state*« future road program. Whether the several chambers of commerce desire to finance the pub lication of another agricultural book let waa also referred by the county chamber. The last issue has been ex hausted and another would cost |300 to 3400. Following the business session the directors, of whom 16 oiit of the 20 were present, listened to a very inter esting talk on the geology of Coos county by J. Ellis Loreman, and fin ished the evening in a social way, over coffee and sandwiches. Brand Files for Supreme Court Coos county’s loss will be the state’s gain if Judge Jas. T. Brand is suc cessful in winning the nominstion and election as justice on the Oregon su preme court bench this year. He filed notice of his candidacy with Secretary of State Hoss last Saturday, and will oppose Justice Bean in the May pri maries. There are other candidate, for the same position, Roy B. Hewitt, dean of the Willamette university law school, and J. W. McCulloch, assistant U. S. attorney. Judge Brand has been frequently called by the supreme court to sit on the bench in other counties, and his legal ability is universally recognised. Judge Brand has been a resident of Marshfield since 1914. He served ten years as city attorney of that city, and since September, 1927, has been circuit judge of Coos county. He served first by appointment from Gov. Patterson, and was elected in 1930, without op position. He has been prominent in Coos county affairs since he graduat ed from the Harvard law school in 1914 and hur.g out his first shingle in Marshfield. If comparisons are per mitted, it could be said that Judge Brand brings to mind the martyred president whose birthday was cele brated last Friday, more than any other ui«n we ever knew. “The Red-Headed Stepchild" was presented in a most creditable way by the Monotony Killers east at the Lib erty Theatre last evening, before an audience which filled nearly all the seats on the lower floor. The actors themselves were excel lent in their servers! parte, there be ing practically no forgetting of lines, and the manner in which the acenes were presented was more profession al than amateur. Mrs. W. E. Bosser- man who conducted rehearsals, should be proud of the way in which the three acta were given. Mrs. Ula Leach, the unwanted stepchild from Montana, had a fund of philosophy and an inherent good ness than endeared her to the audi ence and prejudiced them against her stepmother, and half-sister, parts played by Mrs. Maxine Jeub and Miss Saima Lindros respectively. But the prejudice was against their treatment of “Beas’’ only; as actresses they were superb, the hauteur and snobbishness of society being fully exemplified in their manner. A new apeparance with the Monot ony Killer was George Tracy Leach, who from his initial appearance, bids fair to equal the reputation made by his grandfather, Geo. Leach, as an amateur actor. Ray Jeub, whose pa-t as accepted suitor of the daughter of the house and later as lover of the stepchild, was second only to Mrs. Leach in im portance, presented the same ready wit and assurance that he has shown in previous performances and he car ried the part off exceedingly weH. LeNorme Pownder, the butler, waa dignity personified, his lines were few but his carriage was everything. The society characters, Mrs. Flora- belle Boober, M m . Geo. R. Johnson, Mrs. W. A. Zosel and Miss Blythe Cousins, most handsomely gowned, had the savoir fairs so necessary to a good interpretation of their parts, while Tracy Leach, the father of the two half-sisters, caught in the stock market crash and saved by “B om ,” was never in better form than he was last evening. Miss Jennie Lindros, the 17-year old inamorata, of “Dudley,” the son, —George Tracy Leach—was the love sick girl to perfection. Her appear ances were few, but showed what the reading of too many love stories does to girls of the impressionable age. Arrivals at County Jail X«w names on the blotter at the sheriff’s office this week include the following: Innes Houser, arrested yesterday for possession of a still which Officers Hedges and Williams found 160 feet from hie house ten miles up Rock creek from Bridge. Fred Taylor, Melvin Mesa and Sam Renek, who took a demonstra- tion car from Marshfield, were arrest ed at Eureka, California, and brought back by members of th*- sheriff’s force.
