ASHLAND LEGION
RE-ELECTS BIGS
ASHLAND, Alnr. 12. ' There was
a sound of revelry by night" m Jloiel
Austin, a recent evening this week,
when feasting, singing and story
telling were tho order of the hour.
Incident to a banquet spread which
was a fitting accompaniment to a
gathering of the American Legion as
represented locally by Ashland Pu.it
yo. 14- A number of out of town
guests participated, and the reunion
was a jovial, even If not a boisterous
one. Jim Clneen, now here with the
Aniericnn City Hureau, was among
the throng, and laid aside the cares
of municipal problems long enough
to act the part c'f precentor in leading
tho chorus, and also related a few
funny stories never before hoard in
these parts. The atmosphere of tho
Austin was aglow with warmth and
hospitality, and us for the "spread" it
more than "filled a long-felt want."
Kor post commander the legion re
elected Wni. M. Hriggs, with C. A.
Jlalone, of Medford, as vlce-comnian-jer.
Glenn SlmpsUn will hold the
purse strings as treasurer, and Oscar
Silver, elected adjutant, will have the
secretarial duties to attend to. John
Rigg. as chaplain, will summon the
faithful to their devotions at the ar
mory masque, whilo upon Td Dunn,
historian-elect, devolves tho labors
of chronicling the annals of tho le
gion, past, present and future. The
executive committee includes John
Knders, Terry Aslivraft,, Lynn LMowut,
Ural Coleman, and H. G. Wc'lcott.
The local post heartily endorses
the stand taken; by the national or
ganization regarding 'congressional
legislation in behalf of ex-service men
and such an endorsement has been
made a matter of record. Further
more, the post is in favor of reinforc
ing its influence and activities by the
institution cf a women's auxiliary, no
fcidered complete without such an af
filiation; hence tho molhers, wives
and sisters of the boys will be invited
to form such an auxiliary, a cjiartcr
Bppllcation for. vyhich has, already
been!cece,lve.d.;as a, preliminary. Thru
