Present plans are to close out the
campaign during this week or in the
first part of next week. Monday wall
mark a concentrated drlvo to finish
out the few remaining shares of
stock and it is believed that by the
latter part of next week the $100,000
will have been raised. This sum
practically assures Birmingham of
their new $275,000 stadium as bonds
will be put on the market then and
already many have been sold even
before they have been put up for
5k Le.
SENATE DEFEATS
WALTON’S MOVES
(Continued From Pase One)
senator who stuck by his leader On
every vote.
Although Governor “Jack” took
careful note of the way the wind
was apparently blowing, he did not
appear worried. He sat In an easy j
chair, slouching far down and paying
little attention to the legal moves,
which he left entirely in the hands of
his attorneys. He sucked compla
cently at a corn cob pipe, which was
seldom lighted, and nodded Intimate
ly at friends seated around the senate
bar, chatting with them on matters
apparently not pertaining to the sub
ject vnder consideration. He smiled
constantly. ,
The first a«empt of the governor s
attorneys to be blocked was their in
tention to have some members of the
senate disqualified to sit in the im
peachment proceedings because they
were members of the lvu Klux Kl&n,
and unable to give an unbiased re
view of the evidence.
This move was a surprise-* to the
governor’s opponents and a short re
cess was taken to allow the defence
to organize its fight against the step,
after a request by Walton’s attorneys
for a ten-day recess had been denied.
