Spring wheel novelty seeks to cut rubber in tires
A Bozeman inventor S F Walker showcased a 32 spring-spoke wheel in Billings to test a rubber substitute. Early tests used phonograph springs which proved light but kept the vehicle mobile. Drilling near Hardin and Silesia at 2600 feet showed encouraging prospects with gas and potential oil deeper. Texas Oil Co officers plan a 3000 foot well to pursue a larger oil body.

Fire in Alley Sparks Debate Over Racial Caricature in Drama
A gust of wind scatters scrap paper from a north alley box as boys play near the Grand moving picture house. A fire starts, then is put out by a post office carrier and assistant postmaster Riskin, who fights the blaze from the fence line. The piece then veers into a discussion on racial caricatures in theatre, noting protests against Jewish and other ethnic stereotypes in works like The Merchant of Venice and Potash and Pelmutter, and arguing against censorship of stage portrayals as a reflection of national traits.

A Drotyer minister’s organ demo prompted the remark that it praises its maker well.
