Harry Hartz First To Enter 500-Mile Race Indianapolis, Ind., Mar. 1. — (United Press) —Harry Hartz, who last year placed second in the international motor sweepstakes at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and who finished the ( year as the American Automobile Association speedway driving champion, is the first driver to make an entry for this year s sweepstakes—popularly called the 500-mile race —which will be inn on May 30. Hartz, who stamped himself as a drivel of the first rank in winning the A. 'A A championship has a peculiar record at the Indianapolis track. In 1922. driving his first big race, after having served as a mechanic for Eddie Hearne, he' astonished the racing world by finishing second to the great Jimmy Murphy. Again in 1923 he finished second to Tommy Milton, The following year, when L. L Corum won, he finished fourth; in 1925 t when Peter DePaolo won, he again finished fourth, in 1926. witii Lockhart the winner. Hartz jumped back Into his rok as the second place winner. One of the most consistent second and third, place drivers the racing game ever has seen. Hartz stepped out of character in 1926 io win five first places. He followed this up by winning seven second places, three third places and two fourth places. This was sufficient to give him tin- driving championship with 2,954 points, as against 1,800 for the second place winner. * — o— Dan Niblick went to Fort Wayne this morning where h« is attending

Mar. I—(United Press The U. S. Navy's millions of gallons of oil in special reserves must stay in the earth, under guard of navy officers, until congress acts to have it brought to the surface lor national defense. This important national decision stood forth today in the U, S. supreme court's Elk Hills-Doheny lease cancellation decision the latest development in the oil scandals which Sffli. Thomas J. Walsh, Dem , Mont., ailed with his famous investigation three years ago. Wilbur Takes Action Secretary of Navy Wilbur took quick action tp safeguard the petroleum by designating Rear Admiral H. H. Rousseau, civil engineering corps, to take charge of the 27,000acre naval oil reserve in Kern county, Calif., as soon as the court's mandate enables the navy to take possession. Rousseau has represented the navy as receiver for the reserves during the litigation. The precedent, set in the unanimous decision of the court annulling the leases granted to E. L. Doheny’s companies by the navy and interior departments was regarded by law vers as virtual# certain to bring tinal cancellation of the Teapot Dome, Wyoming, lease, granted about the same time in 1922 to Harry F. Sin clair's Mammoth Oil Company. The case is to be argued April 11. The decision, asserting that "fraud ami corruption" existed in the granting of the leases to tile Doiteny companies by former Secretary of Inter tor B. Fall and his assocites iu the interior and navy departments, did t rule whether tlie $](H),(Mm sent to Fall by Doheny Nov. 30, 1921. was a bribe. The government's special counsel. Owen J. Roberts and At lee Potuerene. itnineclately started work on prosecu tiou ot titre" other oil eases resulting from the senate oil Investigation. Besides tue Teapot civil cases there were the criminal indictment agailfst Sinclair charging contempt of the s nate, .-clieuttled to be tried here i starting ntxt Monday and a criminal indictment cktrging Fall and Sinclair wit a conspiracy to defraud (lie gov ernnient. scheduled to be tried here s elling April 25. Th« house judiciary commit roc met today to reconsider its previous acI'on io killing a bill jo grant inunuiittv te persons needed by the governT.vi.t tor testimony in these eases. The hill was iultodueed at the reolios’ of I’otuerouo and Roberts, who said its pavsags was necessary to aid the roveriiiuent in its prosecution of the Sinclair case. 1 i

RECORD OF JUDGE DEARTHEXPOSED • .Judiciary A. Committee Os House Considers Impeachment Petition Inhianapolls, Ind., Mar. I—(United1 —(United Press) —A mass of evidence on official acts of Judge Clarence Dearth of the Delaware county circuit court was weighed today by Judiciary A. committee of the house ot representatives following a public hearing last night. The hearing was held preparatory to a report by the committee on petltions from Minnie citizens seeking impeachment proceedings against Judge Dearth by the legislature. J. Glenn Harris, chairman of the committee, announced it would go into session again tills afternoon to study the evidence and start drafting its report. 'Seven witnesses from Muncie appeared before the committee at the hearing last night. They were: Joseph Davis,' prosecuting attorney of Delaware county: Paul Brady, deputy proecutor; Clell Maple. Muncie manufacturer; Frqncis Shaw, president of the Delaware county bar associatiqn; John Ranes. a newsboy; L. A. Guthrie and Thomas V. Miller. Muncie attorneys. Maple was author of an anonymous letter criticizing Judge Dearth and Mayor Hampton of Muncie for an alleged lax enforcement of the law. j Publication of t,he letter in the Mancie Post-peinocyat,, owned by George Dale, resulted iu an order from Judge Dearth to seize that issue of the Democrat. Maple testified Judge Dearth promised last July to start a cleanup and secure the selection of a grand jury m which ‘‘only those who are our riends" would be named. Judge Deal th used a telephone dihe had thirteen charges against Robert Auley, the n sheriff of Delaware ■onnty. and said he would call the "...lai jar. . i onic. Ma t ile Lestifieu. In at least twenty-five instances mice the first of the year the names >f men were picked for jury service without complying with the state law, Davis told the committee. Davis, said tl/at during investigation of a recent murder in Muncie, the wife of the chief of police and the wife of a police sergeant were on the granil jury. Judge Dearth used a telephone directory to secure a list of prospective urymen tor the trial of "One Arm" Wolf, without regard to whether the men were taxpayers or not, Shaw testified. Ranes, a newsboy whose papers were seized on order of Judge Dearth, testified a policeman slapped him ind cuffed him about. In some liquor cas#s the jury was "loaded" with women who belonged to the W. C. T. U., Miller asserted, aying he had carried 23 appeals rom Judge Dearth’s court to tji” state supreme court and that most of Judge Dearth's decisions had been reversed.

Workers On Pittsburgh’s Golden Triangle Strike Pittsburgh, March 1 (United Press) —Construction work on building projects within Pittsburgh's golder triangle estimated to cost $100,060,000 wastied up when* four crafts of the building trades' union went on strike ANOLD RECIPE TO DARKEN HAIR Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compounded. brings back

jhe natural color and lustre to the hair when laded. ’ streaked or gray Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome.

rC I

Nowadays w> simply ask at any 'drug stere for "Wyeth's Sage ami 'Sulphur Compound." You will get a flarge bottle of this old-time recipe (improved by the addition of other ingredients. for only 75 cents. Everybody uses this preparation now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking lone small strand at a time; by mornin? the gray hair disappears, and at , ter another application or two, your I hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years 1 younger.
