Studious Tommy Brown Amazes Povlluud Audience--Wins Ctish ' (By AL WILLIAMSON in Vancouver News-Herald) On a holiday tour recently, Tom Brown, well-known Prince Rupert lawyer, found he had time to kill in Portland-arid decideiLta bro wse-through: the public library. There he found interesting reading in the story of the founding of Portland, its history and development. Later, he dropped in to a theatre and found he had entered in ! the middle of a quiz contest. Two teams of four persons each were competing on the stage. As he took his seat, Mr. Brown heard the announcer offer a $50 award for answering the question: "Who founded the city of Portland?" Neither of the teams were able to answer, and the within the last three announcrr called for a reply Earlier this month a I from the' theatre audience. Sev- body, later identified as that eral tried and muffed it. Mr. of Hans Jacobson, 73-year-oia hunter, was found on a small island in Kitkalla Inlet, some distance fronf where the elderly n.ar. disappeared while on a hunting trip on Porchcr Peninsula last October 4. Brown stood up and announced: "It was founded in 1845 by Francis W. Pettygrove and Amos L. Lovejoy." (Tremendous ap plauSe). The announcer was so 1m pressed he called on Mr. Brown to go up to the stage to accept his $50, then asked if he hap pened to know how the city got its name. Said Mr. Brown "Pettygrove was from Maine and Lovejoy was from Massa-chussets. They tossed a coin to decide whether it would be call ed Bdston or Portland. Petty, grove won. The city was char tered in 1851." After the applause had died down and Mr. Brown had been given two ijilrs of nylons as a special award, he was asked how it was that he,- a Canadian (ho said he came from Vancouver because he didn't think they'd know where Prince. Ru pert was!), should know Port- LUil i- , . . , T.,,. made Jut one r( t"e best liked ianus iuu uv.. ..a.i w-of modern American poets, Maud residents.
