the nerve to rib ' Max Baer. He did and it was a pip. Max went out to V ince’s house and Hollywood's champi o n insuiter had a faked radio all prepared for him. The announcer came on with a news flash that Camera had knocked Baer out during their fake fight for the movies and that Max had bden unconscious for 16 minutes. Did he

burn! And, better and better, when they went to the Montmarte Case later on, Vince had people tipped at the door to come over and tell Baer they’d listened in. One of our better known character actors was waxing enthusiastic the other evening about a certain director. “That fellow can direct a scene with his back to you!’’ he exclaimed. Ted Healy sniffed. “Yeah? I saw his last picture the other day. He must have directed that one from his office.” Sleepy-eyed Hollywood i» rehashing the second swell party in two weeks, the Donald Ogden Stewart ten o’clock-till-dawn soiree for Joan Payson. It was too confusing. Everybody was supposed to come dressed as favorite movie star and, in some cases, one guess was as good as another. The unmistakables were led off by Sid Grauman, who was practically perfect in wig and skirts as May Robson; Edmund Lowe, as Lionel Barrymore’s Kringelein; Florence Eldridge, as Jackie Cooper in “Skippy”; Mrs. Dick Rogers as Dorothea Wieck in “Maedchen in Uniform”; George Hearst, as Oliver Hardy and Adrian as Chic Sale. And what a howl when Adrian

The boards are being set up to handle complaints against employers. The administration warned that “if an employer wilfully persists in no-compliance with the agreement after being fully informed of his obligations, he is no longer entitled to the Blue Eagle and the Federal government will take it away from him.” Still On Strike Pittsburgh, Sept. 18. — ’U.R) — Striking miners renewed their picket lines in the Fayette coal fields today, apparently determined to ke p coal production at>-a standsti I until advised by their national officials that the local code is es- ; fegjive. Operators, likewise, appeared willing to let their mines-stand idle until there was complete harmony between them and workers, so that they could be sure they could send miners into the pits without being molested. The miners’ continued holdout was their own decision, and not I others from United Mine Workers of America officials, local union leaders pointed out. State troopers in Uniontown sent out their regular patrols before dawn to see that picketing continued without violence. FEDERAL GRAND JURY CONVENES (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) the Dyer act will be sought against six men already arrested in connection avith the case. Seven cars believed handled by the gang were recovered in Hammond. Presentation of evidence in connection with a $115,000 federal bond fraud case in which 23 purported gang-ters arrested under federal charges were released, will be heldjup pending a .'omplete investigation, Fleming said. He had hoped to place the case before the present session but only seven of the’ released men have been apprehended.

LINDBERGHS TO VISIT RUSSIA Flying Couple Will Visit (.eningrad After Leaving Sweden Stockholm, Sweden, Sept. 18.--(U.R;--Col. and Mrs. Chhrles A. Lindbergh intend to fly to Leningrad, Russia, 'after visiting in South tiweden for several days, it was learned today. IJndbergh secured viasis and a landing permit for his seaplane before lie and Mrs. Lindbergh left Stockholm yesterday. They visited this morning Miss Bertha Persson, Lindbergh's cousin. at the village of Borrby. They Intended to see her last night, but she was so excited over the prospect of their visit that she became ill. She is an elderly spinster. After the visit to Miss Persson, Col. and Mrs. Lindbergh motored in the direction of the Karlskrona naval base where they left their plane. At the village of Smedstorp yesterday, Lindbergh saw for the first time his grandfather's home, “Gardtoesa.” He and Mrs. Lindbergh trudged through the farmyard, minutely inspected the house and barn and fences, and climbed up to the hayloft after looking at the cow stalls below. Lindbergh refused to discuss the scientific phase of the long, leisurely flight from the United States during which he surveyed possibilities for a northern air j route. He and his wife slipped away from Stockholm yesterday morning. ' "Forward my mall to Broadway, New York." said Lindbergh as he left his hotel. The Lindberghs were expected to return home by the Atlantic after their Russian trip, instead of pushing eastward to Tokfo. They probably will go to Moscow from Leningrad, and then presumably to Berlin, Amsterdam and Scotland, returning to New York by steamer. The Russian trip will be for a study of general commercial aviation conditions as well as sight
