! Due Kennedy desires to correct
a statement currently going the
rounds to the effect that he locat
ed the big gold nugget with his
Geiger counter. That credit he
says belongs to one of those pio
neers who had the courage, tenac- >
ity and determination to venture
into that forbidding, desolate re
gion and nake such a wonderful
discovery. Doc will be on hand at
the Hoof Garden however, and if
requested, will demonstrate the
workings of the Geiger counter.
Bet “Formation Sam” will watch
him closely.
