Lion Chasing Autos
Decried By English
LONDON. Aug. 29.—(>P)—Auto

animals of Africa are causing con
siderable Indignation here. Scores
of people who used to write to the
newspapers protesting against the
mounting toll of pedestrians kilim
or injured in London’s traffic ate
r ‘ tng their editors now why some
thing isn't done to protect the lions
and giraffes from the ravages of the
automobile.
Hunters cruise the Seringeu

it Is alleged, chasing their quarry

fatal shot after the fleeing animal
Is practically dead Lorn over-exer

The game lav of the territory

Publicity Expert Predicts
Record Year For
Visitors
The greatest tourist year in the
history of the Valley was predicted
for 1929-30 by William Clendenning
of Chicago, w ho is now here as pub
licity counsel for Point Isabel, at
the Rotary luncheon Wednesday.
A comprehensive program of en
tertainment to Interest tourists aft
er they arrive is advocated by Mr.
Clendeuning, who has had wide ex
perience in publicity work for cities
in various sections of the country.
He reminded his audience that only
the best class of tourists would be
worth while to the Valley, and that
it is to this class that advertising
appeal should be made.
He recommended the employment
of a thoroughly competent and ex
perienced hostess to care for the
entertainment of the visitors, and
suggested that they be booked for
tours to points of interest in the
Valley, trips to Boca Chiea. and
Point Isabel. He also suggested
Mier as the attraction of this sec
tion. a town which cannot be
equalled anywhere in the tourist
sections accessible from the United
States for quaint charm and old
world interest. Tourists should be
met as soon as they come Into
Brownsville, he declared, and as
further hospitality, he suggested or
ganizing them into clubs by states,
and arranging side parties with
these groups.
Mr. Clendenning is well acquaint
ed with the Valley, having been
here about four years ago. at which
time he assisted in the project of
comparing the waters of the Nile
with those of the Rio Grande as to
fertility.
Florida and California compare
poorly in most natural gifts with
the Valley. Mr. Clendenning stated.
Scenic films recently taken in the
Valley by Paramount, Metro-Gold
wyn-Meyer, and Fox were cited as
splendid beginnings for a publicity
campaign for the Valley which
must not be neglected.
Miss Aurora Ortiz, who favored
the club with two piano solos, won
an ovation for her artistic perfor
mance. Prof. Antonio Ortiz ren
dered two violin sole, which were
most enthusiastically received.
Professor Ortiz he ds the Beethov
en academy of music In Monterrey,
and is opening a branch ere on
September 1. Miss Ortiz wLtl teach
piano here.
Louis Alsmeyer, who has been In
Florida, blamed the bank 'allures
in that section to the boom of the
past two or three years, rather than
the fruit fly.
Rumanian Bandits
Polite to Victims
KOLOZSVAR. Transylvania. Aug i
29. (/P)—After a gang of highway
men had robbed a group ot wealthy
men near here, the masked captain
bowed politely and made this
speech:
"Excuse me for having robbed
you. I used to be a government
official but was unable to live on
3000 lei a menth (about $18). Clan
destine stealing was repugnant t ■»
me. consequently I decided to prac
tice- open robbery.
"I am very much indebted to you
that you did not resist and that I
was not compelled to kill you. I
lea*:e you sufficient money to buy
your tickets home, and I beg you
to give these 100-lei notes to the
next policeman you meet, because
I think he won't be willing to risk
his life in pursuing me fo* his mis
erable eight lei (about five cents)
a day."
