"Where was Popper? The Grass Valley Western Union office
had a bit of a problem on its wires and appealed to The Morning
Union for help...via the publicity route. It seemed that for several
days Western Union had been “flooded” with urgent telegrams
addressed to’ one Louis Popper. But: nary a soul around town
seemed to know who he was or where he could be found! So, a front
page story in the Morning Union was resorted to-but Mr. Popper...if
he ever existed outside someone’s imagination...never did put in an
appearance or send anyone to claim all those telegrams!
Editorial Comment Of The Week: ‘‘Parents and guardians
should not give children the impression that crime, vice and
corruption are tolerable and to be lightly taken. Inculcate in them a
horror of criminality, deceit and viciousness. Give them a proper
moral perspective first above all else.” ;
A seven foot sturgeon, weighing in excess of 150 pounds, was
taken from the Yuba River near the state highway bridge leading
into Marysville from the south....by a crew of workmen from the
Marysville Sand Co. The fish was said to be of the deep sea variety
and the finders surmised it had gone up-river when water was
high and then got stranded when the water level was
lowered during the summer heat. A dragline bucket stunned the big
black fish and made its capture, intact, a simple feat.
The political season reached the ‘speaking out” point when
Assemblyworman Cora Woodbridge, incumbent, addressed a
meeting of the Mine Workers Protective League in Grass Valley.
Accompanying Mrs. Woodbridge was Col. Marshall author of the
Marshall Plan for Water Conservation In California. He also spoke
to the meeting, but from the standpoint of an engineer and ardent
conservationist. He said that when he came to California from
Colorado in 1891, his first work was in Nevada City. Mrs. Woodbridge declared that she had played the game “‘like a gentleman”’
(Shades of Women’s Lib!) and had stood’firm for all progressive
and humanitarian measures.
.’ Movie of the week: ‘‘King Of The Wild Horses” featured Rex, a
registered Morgan stallion, under direction of Hal Roach. Roach
und him in Coronado, chained in a stall and regarded as a ‘‘killer
‘horse’. But gentle treatment and good food soon changed all that.
The magnificent animal became one of the most valuable of all Hal
' Roach’s “special properties” and had a lengthy career in films.
Mrs, A.P. Davenport had just returned from San Francisco
where she had spent ‘‘several weeks” learning how to bob women’s
hair, give marcels, set water waves and give ‘‘relaxing facial
treatments’’. Her salon was then.soon opened at 310 Broad Street in
Nevada City.
