HAh, yes, Jameson, he's the chairman. I believe I'll have a nice long chat with him.n After some bickering with the secretary, he gained admit- ance to Ir. Jamesonfs private office. About noon Mr. Jameson. and the Indian left the office. Mr. Janeson was speaking and gesticulating vehemently with occasional interruptions from the Indian's even, but not monotonous, voice. HYou must help my people. They must have land and food.H HI tell you I can do nothing for you! I am very busy. Go awayin HCome to dinner with me, and we can talk some more.H HOh---, very well.H They walked through the streets to a lunchroom. While they were passing through a dark, uninhabited alley connecting two streets, two large,shabbily dressed men appeared from no where. HO kay, mister, stick 'em up. You take care of him, Jake,while I handle Rain-in-the-face, here.W But NRain-in-the-facen didn't handle so well. He took each of the rough-looking individuals by the collar and threw him out onto the street, then drew his companion to the sunlight in the other street. They walked on down the street in silence until they reached the lunchroom. Then the representative from Ohio turned and said to the lean one, HI want you to come back to my office after dinner. I think we can find a solution to your problem.n USome Shootin'U Robert Welch, '40 One summer day while I was driving my little sport coupe through Cold Cat County, Kentucky, I saw a lanky mountain youth going in my direction. As I was making a long trip, I thought this young hill billy might give me company and information about the roads and country with which I was not familiar. He said he Ushore would appreciate a liftn and he fell,I would say rather than climbed in beside me. To start the conversation I asked him how the hunting was around there. We got to talking about guns and so I showed him a new Marlin repeater of high calibre which I had purchased a short while before. He looked at it for a few minutes and then said, HI bet ma grandmaw could do some fancy shootinl with an iron like that. The one shefs got ain't so good no more' it's one Dahl Boone gave her grand- !
