Judge under guard after death threats, August 19, 1938

Death threats against Fletcher Bowron in the recall election? That's a new one on me. But in light of the Harry Raymond bombing, it shouldn't be any surprise ... Thomas K. Heath of the McIntyre and Heath blackface vaudeville team dies at the age of 85. In sports, Henry Armstrong and Lou Ambers may be headed for a rematch.

Freddie Steele, here shown with his wife and new born son, went on to a brief film career (24 credits) including a nice featured turn as Sgt. Warnicki opposite Robert Mitchum in The Story of G.I. Joe (1945), playing a grizzled noncom slogging through North Africa and the Italian campaign yearning for news from home of his young son. Art imitates life.
