Mrs. Harry (Marjorie) Cain and Harry Jr. (Buzzie) stand to generous applause from a packed house at a tribute to Mayor Cain at the Temple Theatre on October 2, 1944. Ex-Mayor J.J. Kaufman and wife are at extreme left in photo. Mayor Cain, a Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Army, served in the European theater from 1943-1945. He was not present at this tribute but hundreds of his supporters attended the free two-hour variety show which honored Tacoma's "fighting mayor." Harry P. Cain would make a successful run for the U.S. Senate in 1946. (TNT 10-3-44, p. 1, T.Times 10-3-44, p. 1) ALBUM 13.
