G. O. P. ORATORS INVADING EAST (CONTINUED FROM PACE ONE) these last few days, despite the apparent intention of the New York governor to challenge him directly. In a statement made public here, Daniel E. Pomeroy, national vicecljairman of the committee and New Jersey national committeeman. denied Smith's charge that a klan meeting in New Jersey had been held “in conjunction with the republican committee.” Pomeroy explained that the man who distributed hand-bills carrying this announcement set Uimself up erroneously and without authority, as representing the national committee. The republican candidate has secluded himself in the last few days, seeing only a few callers. He will hold today his first conference with newspapermen here in three weeks. o_ Damage Suit Follows Arrest In School Case Bloomington. Ind..

Despite Miss Knaak’s insistence that he condition had been caused by self-torture, police and physicians doubted that she could have burned herself so severely. The door of the turnace was tco small for her to crawl through and doctors say that unless she placed herself in a trance, she could not have held her arms and legs in the fire until they were burned nearly to the bone. Hitchcock, whom Miss Knaak said she was to have met at the village hall and pelice station Monday night, lias been home several days with a broken leg. He said he was unaware the former university girl was in love with him. although he had been instructing her for several years in elocution and salesmanship. Hitchcock, who Is married and has five children, appeared more than ten years ago In motion picture comedies. Before that he was in vaudeville. He was known as Lake Bluff’s handsomest man.
