The New Mayor Based on GH Broadhurst's Play
Alwyn Bennett, a young mayor, returns late from a ball to a crisis of graft and loyalty. Horrigan accuses Bennett’s late father of corruption, threatening to publish proofs unless Bennett withdraws opposition to a Borough franchise bill. Meanwhile Bennett must decide between duty and family, guided by his mother’s insistence that right prevail.

Deer Hunt Opens Amid Mixed Deer Prospects in Oregon
Yesterday marked the start of deer hunting season in Oregon with many sportsmen already heading to Crescent and Odell lakes. Despite favorable conditions for deer breeding last year, deer signs are fewer than expected as hot weather may have driven game to cooler mountain fastnesses. Experienced hunters plan to wait for better weather, while others press on to productive ranges and trout streams, ensuring camping parties carry fishing tackle for a combined hunt and fish trip.
