Bam Morrison, who took merchants for $200 worth of advertising for a non existent circus with inmaginary elephants. The only disappointment this time was that the gentle grafter did not show up to be the honor guest. By publication be was offered legal immunity, a new suit of clothes and a $100 bill to show.

Guy H. James, who hold the largest single contract on the multi-million dollar project, gazed wishfully across the scooped-out reservior site and declared "the water down there gets neck deep to a tall giraffe when it rains." And it has rained enough to touch at least three rampaging floods at the base of the dam site......Despite the setbacks, scores of workers and tons of equipment hanve made a mighty "dent" in the job . The dent, 30 feet deep in places, should begin filling up with the first 125,000 acre feet of water by the end of the year, according to Morission B. Cunningham, city water superintendent...Here, an intake tower is partially complete and a cement conduit eight feet high and eight feet wide has been built underground to …
