SOLONS TO GET TASTE OF WIT Minnesota Congressman Is Expected to Inject Hu mor In Dull Sessions MINNEAPOLIS, July . 15.—(/P)— Minnesota offers a candidate—in the person of W. I. Nolan, repre sentative-elect—for the relief of the lamented dullness in the Congres sional Record with a little inten tional humor. Nolan, lieutenant governor, a re publican, was chosen to succeed Walter Newton, representative from the fifth district ,who resigned after his appointment as secretary to President Hoover. The proof-sheets wTill show that Nolan has been a professional lec turer and humorous entertainer for 25 years. The chatauqua platform has known him. Nolan, however, plans to “serve in congress as a listener.” “It is my conviction that too much talk has killed many good bills,” he observed. “Most of us are too long-winded.” Nolan tried out his voice first as a newsboy. Soon after he became an amateur actor, while his news boy colleague, the late Dr. Marlon Leroy Burton, began a career that carried him to the presidency of the Universities of Michigan and Min nesota. . In 1894, when William McKinley made his keynote speech in Minne apolis, “Bill” Nolan, 20. entertained the crowd with a dialect speech chiding the Cleveland administra tion. The next day he was “copy” on front pages all over the country and 9.000 persons who heard him emphasized the hit he had made by inviting him to many states to give his reading. Despite Nolan’s avowed intentions to listen to congress, Minnesota folks are confident that “Bill” will give a few humorous lines to the Record.
