Legion to Be Noisy Not Rough Says Director
Ralph Neelands housing director says the American Legion convention in San Antonio will be noisy but not rough. He notes that ten years after the first postwar gathering, most members are established in work and family, with a “touch of gray” at the temples. He cites minimal damages in prior host cities and previews the drum corps, bugle bands, and national units contesting in San Antonio, while reporting low hotel damages from Paris and Philadelphia conventions. Also mentions Mrs Alg Janszen and Mrs D M Gedler visiting New Braunfels with children.
