Figures Every City in America Should Have One Man Like Walter Marshall
Walter Marshall, a Helena ad man, devotes time to serving the city rather than growing wealth. He transformed a decaying Last Chance Gulch brewery into a thriving summer theater with a stage, auditorium, and housing for actors, funded by community support and college talent. He even chauffeured John F. Kennedy to an airport during the 1960 campaign, while his two large dogs rode in the star flow wagon.

Alcoholic Board Seeks Reversal in Arkansas Liquor Case
The state Alcoholic Beverage Control Board asked the Arkansas Supreme Court to overturn Chancery Court Judge Murray O. Reed's ruling that a 1939 liquor law was invalid. Martha L. Adams, a Forrest City liquor store operator, challenged the law claiming it lacked the required 18 legislative votes. She seeks to move her permit from Forrest City city limits to a rural area east of town, a move the law prohibits. Reed had ruled July 19 that the law appears to have 18 votes, but one voter, the late Sen. Paul Gutensohn, was later removed because he had not been officially elected.
