Shamp was hostes« ' to the memtiers of the Historical Club at her home on Mercer avenue. Friday afternoon. Mrs. E. S. Christen was the lead- . er for the afternoon, and she chose as her subject, “Italy - Manners and Customs.” She told the* club that she had been interested in Italy from descriptions by near friends, who had traveled in that country. She told of the climate, which varies from the cold Alpan north, through sunny and mellow temperatures in the center, to the nearly tropical warmth of the ■ south. , The people are as varied as the • climate. Those of the north have “■fair hair and blue eyes; are well : ■ educated and industrial. In the 1 i center live the professional men; the musicians, artists and so i forth, while in the south live those • dark skinned happy irresponsible i vagabonds for which Italy is ’ noted. Mrk Christen described things of interest in Venice: St. Marks Square, the Bridge of Sighs, the streets without horses, motor vei hides, or traffic cepe, the gondo- : las, and the, gondoliers. •rhe jiaper was both instructive ’ and interesting. During the social < hour, the hostess, assisted by the

author of relativity presenting his original manuscript on the later state of his theory to George P. Day (left) treasurer of Yale, for the university’s archives. Others in the picture are 1 Dr Paul Schwarz. German Con-sul-General to New York, and Mrs. Einstein.

A clause in his contract provides, however, he can be drafted back to the studio on two weeks notice. Janney is the child actor who appeared in “Courage.” TURN ABOUT IS FAIR PLAY. Al Boasberg says he has cured his wife of buying every known variety of pills. The other day when they were passing a drug store, Al suggested stopping. “But I don’t need anything,” objected Mrs. Boasberg. “I know,” said Al, “but let’s see if they do.” WELL, AFTER ALL. Lew Cody, who is a great fight fan, tells about two willing maul- . ers who put on a furious flurry | until one took a sock on the chin; that could be heard all over the. house. He went down in a heap and was still out when the leferee counted ten. As his seconds were bearing him out of the ring, the band, which was there to fill in between fights, started to play “Just a Gigolo.” LATEST GOSSIP.

A dainty luncheon was serv|ed by the hostess. o PHYSICIAN SAYS ARLENE DRAVES DIED OF ATTACK I (CONTINUED FROM PAGF ONE) a delay In today's session. The storm left the courtroom only comfortably filled with Valpara'tso University students, illations, and visiting lawyers, while avid-eyes boys and girls who have | attended previous sessions were ; absent because of counter-attract--1 ing high school basketball tournaI incuts. I Dr. Jones, who testified before ;h ■ second autopsy was held, was the first medical witness not required to answer lengthy hypothetical questions. On direct examination, ho upheld his colleague. Dr. James Burcham. coroner's physician, whom the defense had attempted to impeach. Criminal attacks, he said, were primary factors of Arlene'- death. “She died of cerebral and organic hemorrhages and shock," Dr. I wif s said. He listed a total of 23 injuries, mostly bruises, which he declajed wore found on Arlene's body in the second autopsy. The defense has introduced evidence of only Hi bruises and has tried to attribute those to a sensitive skin rather than violence. Richard Oldham, defense attorney, turned the cross-examination toward extra-Miral hemorrhages, defined as hemorrhages occurring between the brain and the skull. Q. Isn't it true that,'such hemorrhages always cause death? A. No. Q. Did you ever hear of Dr. Bailey's book on nervous diseases? A Yes. Q. He says nine out of 10 cases of extra-bural hemorrhages cause death. A. You're mistaken. He doesuot say so.

know,” replied the child. "But I guess I don’t live where I used to.” — FOX TO TEAM STARS. Those successful fun-makers, Spencer Tracy and Warren Hymer, will be co-starred by Fox in an original story about two gobs. The last time the two played together was in “Up the River,” which you will recall as an amusing burlesque on the prison films. Before undertaking his new role with Hymer. Tracy first must finish the lead in “Six-Cylinder Love.” DO YOU KNOW That Bert Wheeler’s first job in the theatre was as property man I in his home town. Passaic?

iJ Q. Could death have been caus'ed by a hemorrhage of the vital i > organs? A. It could. > Q. Do you know of any case ' ,■ where it did? ! A. I recall one specific ease. This testimony was vital to the question of Kirkland s guilt or innocence. The defense has fought to prove that Arlene's head injury, 1 which its witnesses have testified - resulted from an accidental fall, f was the sole cause of death. , o SENATE REJECTS MOTION TABLING INCOME TAX BILL ‘ (CONTINUED FROM PAGF ONFi 1— t viewed as wholly unlikely—-it was • expected that the personal income tax bill also would pass.

Mist important of the Mils to be--1 come law was the Beckett-Huff measure providing that local budgets in 1931 and 1932 may not ex- ! [ ceed the budget of 1930. The other successful taxation relief measure was the Hartzell bill preventing the state board of health or ’,the state board of education from condemning school buildings. Among bills killed were those 5 1 increasing poll taxes; limiting ’ i construction of t oads by local government units; and increasing I auto license fees 50 per cent and ’ i divertin'g auto license fees from ’ j the highway department to the ' general fund. i A reapportionment bill might ’I be enacted before adjournment hut if so, it is certain to bo favlorsble to the Republicans. The liill for repeal of the prim- ' ary was doomed in the house, and the voters' registration bill was ' making slow progress in the sen--1 ate. The three were favored by 1 Governor Harry G. Leslie in his message to the legislature. One of the problems, which at ’ the outset, was considered vital. '' Is the school aid situation. It has I become apparent that no relief will ’ be given by this legislature. The I 1 liquor issue, which flared up at ' i intervals, has been disposed of to ' tin satisfaction of prohibitionists, with all bills suggesting modification killed.

Temperatures throughout the area were well below freezing, but were expected to rise slowly. Indianapolis, Mar. 7 —(U.R) —Sleet and rain today caused considerable damage to communication lines in central Indiana, with isolated cases of trouble in other portions, l:|ut did not approach the point of a major case of trouble, K. W. Hannan, general superintendent of plant, Indiana Bell Telephone announced. All damage occurred after 6:30 a.m., today, and the only serious break in communications was on the Anderson-Muncie lead, where 80 poles, strewn over a mile and a Jialf area, crippled communication severely. Altogether only 125 poles were reported down in the state, with several reports of minor interference which_ was expected to be quickly cleared. Poles were down in the neighI borhood of Richmond, Shelbyville, , I-afayette and Greenfield, but only a few at each place. Interurban service was tempor- | arily halted on I. & S. E., lines i from Indianapolis, with Union i Traction lines somewhat behind I schedule. v Icy pavements likewise were delaying bus traffic. Indianapolis, Mar. 7 —(U.R) —Generous rains and snows of the past two days have been of great value to dried-out Indiana, according to L H. Armington. U. S. meteorologist at Indianapolis. In the driest section, southern 1 Indiana, a heavy snow amounting to an inch of precipitation in

tome placet, lias fallen, Arming-1 ton said. The fall decreated to i lhe north, until the extreme uppers section received no snow or rain, i Snow still was falling In Fort Wayne this morning, although the ; precipitation was light. , Armington said the storm center was just southwest of the lower ( tip of Indiana, accounting for the ( heavier fall in the southern regions. Temperatures were not expect- { ed to change during the next 24 hours, remaining around the freezing point. More rain, possibly turning to snow tonight, was pre- ' dieted. Traffic on transportation lines out of Indianapolis was delayed today because of snow-covered i roads and broken power lines. Interurban traffic was halted by 1 broken trolley lines. ELEVEN NEGRO CONVICTS DIE .CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) Kenansville. Most of the popula- [ tian turned out in the dark to aid guards in rescue work. Guards turned out all prisoners they could reach but the flames spread so fast that the heat became ! so terrific they could not reach the 11 negroes. Screams of the trapped men re- ‘ sounded through a wall of flames as the guards stood helplessly by. The eleven men burned to death i were quartered in a cell near the kitchen where the fire originated. Only two guards were on duty. Owen Braisben. aided by D. F. Nicholson, unlocked as many cells : as possible. Three of the victims were identified at dawn. They were Preston Hall, Floyd Cox and John James. o— — f PREBLENEWS ■< « . !
