HEALTH BOARD APPEALS TO COURT FOR HIGHER LEVY Members of City Council Are Made Defendants in Mandamus Suit, /A mandamus suit to compel the city council to fix the levy of the general health fund at 12 cents, the tuberculosis fund 1 cent, and the school health fund 1.5 cents was filed before Judge Clinton A. Givan in Superior Court. Room 4, by Clifford Kealing, attorney for the board of health today. The complaint brought by Dr. E. E. Hodgin, president of the board, Is filed against the nine members of the city council who must appear in court at 9a. m. Friday. Joseph L. Hogue, acting mayor, today named W. T. Bailey, assistant city attorney, to represent councilmen. The complaint alleges that the coui*. cil “illegally and unlawfully” passed a 7-cent levy and has since refused to compv with State law. With the filing of the suit, James M. Ogden, city attorney, was investigating 1921 amendments on advice of Phillip Zoercher, State tax commissioner. Ogden said, however, he would take no action on the suit unless requested by the administration. Zoercher holds that the 1921 law repeals the mandatory provisions of the 1919 law on which the attorneys for the board of health based their claim for their suit. Zoercher’s attitude will be expressed officially if the court grants the mandatory order, and the new levy of sl.lO reaches the State tax board.

Jewelry Style Like Clothes; Gems Need Setting Every Year

The woman who used to wear her 200-year-old diamond brooch with the greater pride because it was old-fash-ioned now takes it to a jeweler and has anew setting made for the diamonds every season. For years sentiment over-ruled style in jewelry. Not so today, according to Harold Johnson of the J. C. Sipe Company. Fashions In jewels change almost as often as In clothes. Even wedding rings are brought up-to-date every few years. Occasionally a sentimentalist comes

NINE DESTROYERS INSTEAD OF SEVEN HIT ROCKY REEFS Two Others Limp Into Port With Tales of Thrilling Escape, By United Press SAN DIEGO, Cal., Sept. 13.—Nine destroyers, instead of seven as reported, ran on the rocks at Point Arguella Saturday night, it was learned today. The Sommers and the Farragut limped into port during the night, badly crippled, pumps working to keep water out of their holds and with tales of their thrilling escape from the fate that overtook sister ships of the destroyer flotilla. The two destroyers that escaped, were following in single file the seven that piled up. Plowing through the seas at the rate of twenty knots an hour on the fatal night the lookout on the Farragut perceived something had gone wrong with the vessels ahead. “Man overboard," was his instinotive cry and acting on standing instructions to destroyer fleets in battle formation, the Sommers and Farragut veered off to the right and left in order not to hit the :nan they believed in the water. It was this action that saved the vessels and possibly the lives ol the crews.

‘MOST INTELLIGENT’ GIRL IS 808-HAIRED Wears Short Skirts, Too, Like Other Girls of 19, Despite Highest Rating in State Tests,

Times Staff Correspondent SHELBYVILLE ,Ind., Sept. 13. “The most intelligent girl in Indiana,’’ Misa Cecille Robinson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Robinson, 410 S. West S.t., is much amused when she hears the title. Being as unassuming as she is reputed to be intelligent, she does not see why all the fuss is made over her. Miss Robinson earned the title when she made the highest grades in the State in a test conducted at all colleges by the State board of education. She was at Franklin College. She took the teat, in psychology, literature, mathematics and history, including the Simon-Binet intelllgance tests, in the summer of 1922, but only recently learned that she was first in the State. “Why, they just happened to ask GIRL IS MISSING FROM HOME AGAIN Thirteenth Not Lucky for Ruby’s Mother, Ruby White, 8, of G 45 Birch Ave., has been reported missing again. Records at police headquarters show that Ruby has strayed from home on twelve occasions, each time returning. The girl was last seen Wednesday walking over the Oliver Ave. bridge toward the. city. Hal Thompson. 16, according to a message from his father, Glen A. Thompson, Clinton, Ind., left home Sunday afternoon and has not been seen since . Thompson stated in his message that the boy’s mother is in a serious nervous condition over his disappearance. Police were asked to look for him. Police were asked In a telegram from Seymour, Ind., to detain two of three runaway colored boys, bound for Indianapolis. Their names are Gerold Browning and Claude Mitchell. William Clossy, 75, was reported to the police as missing from the Little Sisters of the Poor home at East and Vermont Sts., today. Muscular rheumatism is being treated with oil from snake’s fat. Fruits can be put up without sugar, I if carefully sealed.

The Western Union Telegraph Company have by their own expenditure of more than $200,000 for equipment and for a twentyyear period completely installed themselves on the first, ninth and tenth floors of our new Guaranty building. In point of completeness of equipment the local office stands foremost in this country. The entire building is now fuliy occupied. The Building was Completed in April of This Year. We wish to express our sincere gratitude to the public for its many evidences of keen interest and helpfulness in this enterprise, which we believe makes for a busier, a better and a more beautiful Indianapolis.

questions I knew,” declares this girl who made IS7 out of a possible 200 points. This, too, although the average among the other 285 students at Franklin was under 100. Like Other Girls of 19 Miss Robinson is applying her knowledge now in teaching thirty-two children of all ages and grades in the one-room Reece school, three and one-half miles south of here. “The most intelligent girl” looks just like any other girl of 19. (She admits her age with a smile) Her hair is bobbed. Her skirts are short, as her work iq the country requires. There Is nothing of the bookworm about her. "I’ll have to admit I never studied a great deal,” she said. “I always believed Intelligence was an innate quality, anyway. I didn’t know the test was a State competition, or I should have been nervous.” She has attended Franklin College for three summers, following graduation from Shelbyville High School In 1921. She intends to return. Wants to Go West She wants to go west to teach with her college roommate. But, although she seems self-sufficient, she is, after all, just a girl, her parents remind her. And she confesses a great dependence on her family. Here’s how Misa Robinson defines intelligence: “Alertness of mind and body, with knowledge and the capacity to retain knowledge.” She was confused when she was reminded that the definition fitted her. Nevertheless, Intelligence as she describes it is just the sort "the mos'; intelligent girl In Indiana” has.
