:Prohibition was in full swing but one lawmaker wanted to expand the amendment. If you were an American you couldn’t drink anywhere…IN THE WORLD! Not sure if it passed….
And a little girl about pain in her leg. It felt like something
“wrapped” around it. Like Gomer Pyle used to say “Surprise, Surprise, Surprise”
