HERE'S CAPTAIN KIDD
Here's a letter from A. L. McKee of ’7HBU, Anderson, Ind. :
"It might be well to warn the members of the activities of William Krug who specializes in a contest either radio or newspaper Icnown as a 'Captain Kidd Con¬ test' . Krug is a man about six feet tall weighing from 240 to 260 pounds, small black mustache, an extremely good salesman, a regular cigar smoker, and with the characteristic aviator line of talk. He specializes in buying four half hour periods and selling the merchants with the radio station's assistance. He makes no request for advance payments on his contract but, lock out', for he has a bad habit of indorsing your checks for himself.
"The sheriff of Mt. Vernon, Illinois, has a confidence game warrant against him. The sheriff of Madison County, Ai.derson, has astolen automobile warrant for him, and undoubtedly the sheriff at Evansville has a forgery warrant for him. He claims to be from Oklahoma and is picking on the 100 watt radio stations.
Yes, he nipped us but not for much."
