"That lype of pub licity isn't likely to bring visitors flocking to Salem, even though it suits those who like a quiet, home) city." I'll accept the explanation he- he has'cause " -PPcars t0 De Just- B poiniea out mat even mougn stores downtown had added lo By BILL JENKINS Louie Polin. the gaudiest charac ter to hit this town in many a long year, has made another move. He has sold out his El Picador Hotel in Palm Springs and is head ing for the glitter capital of the West, Las Vegas. I am inlormed that picked up a piece of the El Mor occo there and will add his bit to the world of gambling and glad handing Nevada style. We certainly wish Louie all the luck no pun Intended in the world in his new venture. If you have come to Klamath in recent years and missed the chance of knowing Louie we feel iorry. It is an experience that one should have. Along with a lot of others in Klamath 111 always remember Louie as the genial proprietor of Polin's Corner Store on the corner of Seventh and Main All the youngsters in town hung out there, humming Louie for soft drinks, buying magazines when they could and reading them in the slore when they couldn't alford to pungle up the necessary nickel or dime. Louie was always a quiet, con servative man. Comparatively speakng, that is. Compared to a three ring circus, maybe. His favorile carriage was a large, long, powerful convertible, with the top down even in winter. His usual costume wa.s a pair of bright blue or red slacks, a yellow sports coat his car was yellow. too a green shirt, a purple scarf and a red. white and blue spurting cap. In cold weather this ensem ble was topped with a real camel hair wrap-around coat All this on Louie who was built along similar but somewhat solider lines to the late Lou Costellp. Louie always felt that he should add a dash of color to all this just to make sure people knew he was around .so he traveled with a big Dalmatian dog in the back seat ol the convertible, the spot ted pup adding Ihe final fillip to the entourage. Louie was a friend lo man if there ever was one He quit school t an early age lo start al the hotlom of Ihe ladder as a news butcher. He was Ihe best newspa per salesman I've ever seen And lie parlayed the business into a mil lion bucks, more or less, over the years. The only limes I ever saw Louie Wow his slack was at the lights. He was an ardent and vocal fight fan any kind of a fight . And if it wasn't a light it was baseball or something else. He still carries around press passes to such things as the Jack Johnson Jess Willard heavyweight cham pionship brawl in 1915. and keeps in touch with all the colorlul sports figures with which he has had a close association over Ihe years As a promoter he had in equals El Morocco, for all its fame. will he a different place now that Louie Polin has taken a hand in things Of that 1 am sure. I have nrver hern, to Las Vegas, being a very close man with a dollar, hut il anything could ever induce me lo risk that trip it would be Louie. Of course I don't know if I d know him In a letter to my dad last week Louie said hr had dropped from 165 pounds to 124.

Educational toys, as such, have rants had closed. They also added. "If much of the downtown area at night looks like the sidewalks were rolled up too soon, it's just plain because decentralization it having its day in the eating line, too " In my wanderings in Salem, both that night and the next day, 1 noticed a number of store places which were abandoned and empty. The process of downtown decen tralization is well along in Salem If this is the future for cities, then certainly the store owners had better get to work to hold the core of the business area downtown in Klamath Falls intact. Ironically, there were some very large and suitably placed parking lots in the downtown Salem area, and they were well used, I noled. We could use these in Klamath Falls. Maybe Hi merely local pride, but I can't help but compare Klam ath Falls with Salem. One can lind plenty of good places to eat in the downtown area at any time of night. There is no mistaking the busi ness core of the city of Klamath Falls, and although some areas, such as Ihe strip along Klamath Avenue, look somewhat the worse for wear, and have Amply fronts, we are still a vital, on our-toes city in comparison to the Salem I visited the other day. I hope this doesn't start an inter city war. and if Salem reads this charge it off to local pride. However, we both agree on one thing and that is that any bellhop worth his salt will know where Ihe nearest ealing or drinking place is to his hotel. Might not hurt for local hotel owners to check their bellhops or their personnel as to their knowledge about these things. Oh. yes. one final item. They of fered to see that I got fed next time in Salem, regardless of the time. 1 hope the opportunity to cap Halize on that free meal will come up soon.
