* Alvaro Obregon assassination

The top of the front page has a four column headline: "PRESIDENT-ELECT OBREGON ASSASSINATED AT LUNCHEON CELEBRATING HIS ELECTION; MEXICO CITY IS SWEPT BY GRIEF AND RAGE" with subheads and photo. (see) First report coverage on the assassination of General Alvaro Obregon, president of Mexico. Much more on pages 2 & 3 with two more photos. Loads of text.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 44 pages, light toning at the margins, a little irregular along the spine, generally nice.
