This is the Elks Lodge we're talking about, not the Legion Hovel. Up at the hovel John Dillinger is treated as a pansy-sniffing poof, as are Bugs Moran, Scarface Capone, Mad Dog Coll, Boone Helm, and Captain Bligh. The folks who frequent the Legion Hovel are tough, tough enough to swim the Portneuf River naked when it's -45F., tough enough to face down a speeding locomotive, tough enough to catch bullets in their teeth. Tough. Not necessarily smart, but tough.
