Begins training for hog-calling contest. Washington, D.C. June 9. Interest is at fever height in Louisiana for the coming hog-calling contest at the Capitol between Rep. Robert L. Mouton; of Louisiana, and Rep. Otha D. Wearin, of Iowa. So much so that Governor Richard Leche of the bayou state made a special trip, bearing a live porker; to assist Rep. Mouton in his pre-contest training. The contest is the result of a controversy between the two solons of the merits of the hog callers of their respective states. In the photograph, left to right: Theodora Olivier, neice and secretary to Rep. Mouton; Governor Leche, and Rep. Mouton. 6/9/37
