state park board following pas-
sage bv empress of a bill intro-
duced by Senator Burton K Wheel-
cr The rational park service how-
ever continues to supervise devel-

National Legion Head To
Visit Enid
Another Huge Chamber
Is Opened
ENID, Aug. 19—(Speciall—Har-
ry W Colmery, national comman-
der of the American Legion, will
be the principal speaker for th«
Oklahoma state convention to be
held in Enid Sept 5 to 7. This is
the 19th annual state convention
and an attendance of 8,000 is ex-
pected.
In the service during the World
war, Colmery earned the silver bar
of a first lieutenant of aviation
at a time when flying was a far
more difficult and hazardous oc-
cupation than now. In the Ameri-
can Legion, his widespread popu-
larity and ability raised him to the
highest olflcee In his post, depart-
ment and the national organization.
As a lawyer and a citizen, he is
recognized by all as among the
ablest in Kansas, his home.
By bU-th Colmery belongs to the
east; by adoption he is a true son
of the west. He was bom at Brad-
dock, Pa., Dec. 11. 1890 a son of
Walter Scott and Flora K Thomas
Colmery.
Devotes Time To Legion
With the inception of the Ameri-
can Legion in 1919, Colmery be-
came interested in Its organization
and lias since devoted much of his
time, energy and knowledge to its
progress. He first turned his at-
tention to the organization of
Legion posts in Utah, was active
chairman of the committee on
resolutions at the first convention
of the department of Utah, and
was a member of the first 1
department executive committee.
In 1920. Colmery moved to Tope-
ka, Kan., was admitted to the bar
there, began the practice ol law.
and promptly became active In I
building up the American Legion
in Kansas. He became Kansas
strife commander ui 1929.
Colmery became nationally active
ill Legion affairs. He was national
legislative chairman from 1930 to
1932. He held numerous executive
positions with the Legion and
served on various important na-
tional committees until last year
when he was elected national com-
mander.
BTTTTE. Mont., Aug. 19 —fU.R)—
Anotlic-r huee chamber has been
opened in Morrison cave by the
national park service—the fourth
since the government began devel-
opment activities two years ago.
The cave, in southwestern Mon-
tana. Is the third largest in size
and beauty tn the United States.
If the discovery dove’opment of
he chambers continues park offi-
cials said it Is posable that the
cave wii! becom" the largest and
the most beautiful in the country.
The original cave, which was
discovered by Lewis and Clark and
later developed by Allan and Dan-
iel Morrison, has 12 floors of vary-
ing sizes, eacli about 300 feet long
and 30 feet wide. The first new
chamber v hich was opened, named
the Paradise room, measured 280
by 358 feet .
Named Hell's Half Acre
The < ond discovery, called Hell’s
Half Acre, was reported to be
larger than the Paradise room.
Ther- came land's End and the
Bacon rooms. Hell's Half Acre Is
1 000 feet long and 30 feet wide.
The fourth chamber, which will
possibly be called the Sacajawea
Harry W. Colmery of Topeka,
Kan., national commander of the
American Legion, will speak at the
Oklahoma state Legion convention
to be held in Enid Sept. 5 to 7. He
Iras taken an active part in the
Legion since its Inception in 1919.
