regardless of their age, feel young.

Alfred M. Landon Governor of Kansas, and Franks Knox,
newspaper publisher, candidates, respectively, for the Presidency and the
Chicago
Vice-presidency of the United States. Landon’s name was the only one
presented to the convention. It was the first time such a thing had hap-
pened a a Republican convention since the nomination of Grant in 1868 and
1872. So loudly did delegates cheer Governor Landon’s nomination that the
noise exceeded the capacity of the huge applause meter which was used
throughout the convention to measure enthusiasm.

“Cowboy Bill” Promises
“Cowboy Bill” Hubbard, who has
been building himself a reputation as
one of the country’s most foolhardy
daredevils for the last decade or two,
is sore!
Last Sunday a typical holiday
throng was gathered at Harvey's Lake
Picnic Grounds, waiting to see Bill
take his life in his hands by jumping
off a 40-foot platform into 50 feet of
water on a motorcycle speeding along
at 60 miles an hour. Bill and his mo-
lorcycle were readyv—but the platform
wasn’t, it seemed. :
For several days workmen had been
raising the high scaffolding beside the
chute the chutes at the picnic grounds.
On Saturday night the management,
checking over the construction, dis-
covered that someone had made a mis-
take in the measurements. As it stood,
it would be impossible to get the speed
“Cowboy Bill” needed. An emergency
crew of workmen began reconstruction
on the scaffold, racing against time
while Bill stood impatiently by. But it
wasn’t finished in time,
An embarrassed management and an
angry daredevil

big day. Bill signed a defiant contract
to make the jump twelve times during
the next month. He'll make the first

jump off the bathhouse, he says. Never
before in the history of the
grounds has a crowd been disappoint-

prove that he can jump off his plat-
form and come up alive.
