PREDICT FIGHT AT CONVENTION Senator Arthur Robinson Handed Smashing Defeat By Committee Indianapolis, May 17— <U.R) — A dramatic contest for the Republican nomination for United States renator was believed in prospect today following Senator Arthur IL Robinson's failure to win control of the state central committee, Robinson was administered a decisive defeat yesterday when all officers of the state committee were unanimously re-elected at a meeting of district chairmen and vice chairmen here. Animosity towards the senator was expressed by many party leaders as a result of his charge that Dou B. Irwin, chairman, and other state committee members were arranging a "bi-partisan tieup" with the Democratic administration of Gov. Paul V. McNutt. Among the most outspoken party leaders was Henry W. Marshall, Lafayette publisher, who called Robinson's charge "Th« most unwise, unjust statement by a candidate that I have ever known to emanate from a person unopposed for renomination.” Other officers of the state central committee re-elected were Mrs. Beryl Holland, Bloomington, vice chairman; Burrell Wright, Indianapolis, treasurer, and Harry ‘Fenton. Indianapolis, secretary. They were named by arclamaHEALTH MEANS CHARM AND HAPPINESS vißifl speak of health g and vitality. Clear r MKj| I skin attracts.

By HARRISON CARROLL CW«4U ll>«, KIM FWaH. ZrMIMM. IM. HOLLYWOOD, Calif., . _ In fear of her life, Mae West has walked between armed bodyguards and has inquired about the pur. ' "~~Sg chase of an armored car. But it was not un- 'tXis derworld guns jyigty a nucr..pl>..ne Mfew BUB dh boom on her JEM own set that re- BL cently gave the ■S**" 1 blonde star her narrowest es- EKggMP. cap« from doath. The presence of mind and the stalwart hacks of the assistant *****•■ ' ‘ director and tha timer for the “It Mae Ain’t No Sin” West troop averted a tragedy. Mae was sitting in a chair between scenes when soundmen started to trundle the 400 pound boom (it was the old-fashioned cast-iron kind) to a new position. In some manner, the counterbalancing lead weights came off. The boom swung rapidly towards Mae. Many shouted, but Assistant Director James Dugan and Timer Harry Scott made a dash and huddled over the star. The heavy weight struck their backs, flinging them to the floor, but was deflected from Mae’s head. An examination at the studio hospital discovered that the two rescuers had escaped with bruises and stiff backs. Mae was so unnerved by the incident that she left the set at 9:30 a. m. and did not return until midafternoon. To the amazement of his pals. Gene Fowler blossomed out at Al Levy’s tavern with an SBOO Panama hat, though it cost him something less. “Yeah,” flipped Harry Brand, "Gene wears SBOO hats and sls suits.” "And no underwear,” topped the grinning Fowler. It's a far cry from King Tut’s tomb to a movie star’s jewel case, but this is the course traversed by an Egyptian scarab now in the possession of Irene Dunne. The star recently received the relic as a gift from an anonymous admirer, who vouched for its history. He wrote tion after separate caucuses of j district chairmen and vice chair-1 men revealed that Robinson controlled only nine of the 24 votes. The senator had sought to have Noel C. Neal. Noblesville, named chairman. Throughout the meeting the name of Frederick Landis, Logansport. was mentioned frequently as a possible candidate to oppose Robinson for renoinination in the Republican state convention next month. Landis is the Republican nominee for congressman from the second district but it is believed he would accept the call for higher honors if his friends insisted. He is one cl the most able speakers in the state and older heads of the party believe he would make an effective campaign. Another me.itioned as a possible candidate for senator is Arthur Gilliom, South Bind, former attorney general. Before an opponent to Robinson is placed in the field, however. it is thought that a thorough check of convention delegates will he made to determine how many will support the incumbent. o — Leng Mountain Range The TTlmnlnynn mountain range la anont V 750 mites long

that it eame to him from an archeologist, who had taken it from the tomb. The acarab is acven inrhea in circumference, green in color and carries an inscription which the donor says has defied translation. Several local Egyptologists express the belief that the relic is authentic. The death of Earl Der Biggers broke the chain of his populnr Charlie Chan mystery stories, but Fox will carry the character on in three more films. One, now being produced, will be called “Charlie Chan’s Courage” and will have a San Francisco locale. The second of the series will carry the philosophical Oriental detective to Ixmdon and the third probably to Hollywood. It’s Hollywood’s oldest boner but the fact that O. O. Mclntyre pulled it makes it news. On being introduced to Warner Baxter, Odd exclaimed : "Oh, yea, Mrs. Mclntyre and I always enjoy your pictures, Mr. William.” As a producer of sensations, the Carmelite Geraghty-Carey Wilson marriage is without parallel in recent Hollywood annals. Jean Harlow confessed lie r "IShk separation from Hal Rosaon dur■e"-» ing the rrcepfel tion, and it was there, too, that JSffisk Joan Biondell Orß confident !’v told a few friends of her impending bless- , ed event. In sisDl ° , n .. ,tee n minutes, Blondeu everybody at the 1 reception knew about it. If you recall, Joan has been telling the world she wanted a baby for the last three years. Her first statement to a fan magazine interviewer caused a ripple of excitement, because she was not married at the time. DID YOU KNOW— That Joan Crawford saves her favorite gown from each picture, storing it away in a cedar closet for a souvenir? ROBLES KIDNAP SUSPECTS ARE UNDER ARREST (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) with providing the automobile in which an attempt was made to collect $60.1X10 ransom moiiey from the Gettle family. Stoddard denied actual complicity in the kidnaping. He said ho and Kerrigan owned the machine and that he loaned it to Kirk and Loretta Woody, reputed feminine member of the gang, without knowing their purpose. The car was registered to a , George Slater. Officers said the . name was fictitious. The machine was found parked outside the kidnapers’ haunt when Gettle was liberated and Williams and Kerrigan were arrested Monday night. Federal indictments, charging use of the mails for extortion, were voted against Kirk. Williams and Kerrigan, shortly before they were removed to iSan Quentin under heavy guard. The indictments were designed to frustrate any chance of their parole. o Conspicuous Nothing shows up as fast as - weak tire, unless it Is the spot the 1 painter missed.—Racine Journal News.

The only district officer favorable to Peters was Mrs. Clara Parrott, Fort Wayne, who was elected as a compromise candidate. Virgil M. Simmons, Bluffton, was re-elect-

ed chairman. He is head of the state department of public works. Peters was given a rousing ovation when he was introduced in the fourth district meeting. His
