F. Goodrich Company_ Dressing Up The Mike—Funnyman Fred Allen thinks the microphone too impersonal, so he dressed this j one up with hat, muffler, overcoat and a smoke for his "Town Hall Tonight" broadcast Wednesday night over the NBC-Red network._ Don't Quote Me (Continued from preceding page) Even luck in its rarest form won’t permit a “perfect break” un less from somewhere comes help— either from inside the prison walls or outside. From some place came guns to arm a part of the seven men who escaped. The others came from the prison arsenal after the escape was begun. One official pointed out it would have been very easy for an honor man to have smuggled a gun into the prison camp from the outside. Seldom are they searched. Or a visitor to the camp might have brought the guns to the men. Visitors are searched occasionally. 0 Now apparently an investiga tion by the house penal division in to low salaries of prison guards will be made. It may be a long-drawn-out-af fair, with hearings in several state prison camps. Or it may be com pletely forgotten. It is apparent the legislature and the penal division do not have the press of the state upon their heads as in 1935 when editorial pages yelled that the state’s prison gang treatment was "inhumane.” R&6 ORIGINAL ORANGE GIN DISTILLED GIN WITH ORANGE 75cp. 80 Proof This gin is distilled from neutral grain spirits.
