New Orleans la proud and glad to have had the opportunity to entertain the American Legion national convention and heartily congratulates San Francisco upon its capture of the honor for 1923, according to an edia leadtorial in the ing New Orleans newspaper, printed several days after the departure of the Legionnaires. " The Legionnaires as a body earned the good opinions even of those few Orleanians who because of rumors of misdoings at Kansas City were slightly prejudiced against the gathering," the editorial states. Throughout American Legion week good humor and good order prevailed. The rare Instances of minor rowdyism or ruffianism served only as exceptions going to prove the general rule of splendid behavior and of these exceptions some, perhaps the majority, were chargeable to local hoodlums who took advantage of the Legion festivities to misbehave in the hope that their offenses would be charged to the visitors' account. In so large an assembly some impostors, crooks and are almost invariably found but the careful work of the Legion officials and the local police simply restricted the activities of these undesirables. Of harmless high Jinks' there was, of course, a Joyous abundance. New Orleans, with 'Its carnival traditions, shared in the fun of it all and rejoiced in the hilarity which testified that the lads of the Legion were having a good time. Of wanton, offense and of malicious mischief," American Legion week was remarkably free. The wish e last expressed by the Saturday morning that the Legionnaires would carry to their homes 'recollections of the convention as pleasant as those they leave with us' came straight from the heart" e In a previous editorial the Tinjes-Picayun- e, In T.

A daughter of the late Judge Frederick Hooker of Minneapolis, Mrs. Fischer spent the early part of her life in that city. She was educated in a private school at Washington and FolIn the University of Minnesota. lowing her marriage she went to New Orleans where she became a leader In womens clubs and social activities. She was elected vice president of the Louisiana League of Women Voters. During the war Mrs. Fischer raised a large sum of money in Louisiana for the American Red Cross. Her only son served with the American forces In Italy. Mrs. Fischer Is a lineal descendant of Fighting Joe Hooker, the famous Civil war hero. The new long-tersenator from Delaware, Thomas F. Bayard, comes from a family of senators, both his father, Thomas F. Bayard, and his grandfather, James A. Bayard, having served In the senate from Delaware. Moreover, he married a Du Pont, of the same family as his opponent for senator, T. Coleman du Pont. He will be a striking figure In Washington. In his early fifties, dark eomplexioned, more than six feet tall and weighing about two hundred pounds, the new senator Is built like an athlete. He wears a flowing black tie. lie Is a good mixer. Mr. Bayard Is a graduate of Yale and a lawyer of ability. The only public office he has held in Delaware was that of city solicitor of Wilmington, an appointive office. At the last election he was a candidate for mayor, hut was defeated by Leroy Harvey, brother-in-laof T. Coleman du Ionl. Uis chief characteristic Is his outspoken position on all subjects. He op posed woman suffrage when his sister, Mrs. William S. Hilles, was one of the national leaders in the movement. He opposed prohibition and said so. He was equally frank in declaring that now that the prohibition acts had been passed he would enforce them If It was his duty to do so. His frankness won votes.
