SLAYERS LIVE IN DIFFERENT WOULD, • PLEA OF DEFENSE Chicago Youths Not Guilty in Legal Sense, Lawyer Says. By United Press CHICAGO, July 16. —Nathan Leopold, Jr., and Richard Loeb, con--'essed slayers of 14-year-old Robert '•'ranks, are not guilty of the murler as the legal tfrorld looks upon it. the defense will argue when the two young millionaires’ sons are prought to trial on Aug. 4. This was set forth today in a tatement by Clarence Darrow, chief defense counsel. Darrow outlined the defense case as it has been built up by more than a dozen physicians who have examined Leopold and Loeb in the death cell of the county jail. “Unbalanced Mentally” “Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb are unbalanced mentally and do not live, think, or act in the way that rational beings, as the medical world knows them, do in every day life.” Darrow said. Leopold, a few moaths older, more precocious and loss affected by human emotions than young Loeb. is the ox? triple of a deranged mind in Darrow's opinion. "Leopold lives in an entirely different world than in which you and I e::'st” the famous lawyer who will -defend the boys declared. “In his mind he had built a wall which shuts him from the conventionalities cf the present day and makes him the superman. He does not believe in the laws that rule us. “If the jury- which tried these boys sends them to the gallows, they will be hanging two boys who are insane and will be doing an act against the common law of every nation. “The lawyers and the doctors who have examined Leopold and Loeb—and even their parents—are convinced that it would not be safe to let them free on the streets or in society at large. We will not, therefore, attempt to have them go free, but we will make every effort to forestall their hanging. They should be committed to an in ne asylum." Examinations ver Examination of the ye hg murderers has been completed, Darrow announced. and findings of alienists and psycliiattists is about whipped into shape for presentation to the jury. Not more than three or four of the doctors will actually take the witness stand, he indicated. On July 21, when Judge John R Caverly is to hear any and all motions in the case, Darrow is prepared to demand the defendants be given a sanity hearing rather than a criminal ttial. If this fails, the defens ewill argue for a postponement from Aug.-4. “The public has been excited by this murder,” Darrow told the MOTiON PICTURES

VINCENT DELL'AGLIO (LEET) AND RUTH HOPE

By PHILIP J. SINNOTT NEA Service Writer JAN FRANCISCO. July 16Revival of interest in the u__| bow and arrow in California has reached the point where many devotees would rather cast off the benefits of gunpowder, rifles, shotguns and other*developments of later years, and seek their game as did their medieval forebears. And now it has gone still farther —into an “Adam and Eving" contest, with the California wilds as the setting and two “back-to-fhe-primltive” folks as the contestants. - “A man of this century,.isn’t so smeared over with civilization that he cannot go out and wrestle Nature In the raw. and make Nature give him a good living." says Vincent Dell'Aglio, famous as a bowmaker. Thus he prefaced announcement he is going into the woods with only a how and arrow and make his living come from his archery. Ruth Hope, San Francisco sportswoman, at once declared that what man could do, woman could do still better. She Anannounced *haJ she will go into the wilderness for'the same length of time ns Dell'Aglio and make herself a better livelihood with exactly the same weapons, the bow and arrow. / Miss Hope, however, insists upon one companion—her "archery dog" Buster. The latter has been trained to retrieve arrows and game. But it’s soon to be settled. Dell’Aglio has chosen the woods of southern California as his hunting grounds. Miss Hope will do her “back-to-nature” in the northern California forests. DEAD MAN TO ‘TESTIFY’ By Times Special CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind..

SOUTH SIDE GAS PATRONS TO GET JUNEBILLS CUT All Becausb Meters Are Read Later, General Manager Explains. South side gas consumers will get the greater part of their Juns gas at the new reduced rate of sl.lO, ; although the reduction was not to | become effective until July 1. it be- | came known today. North side ! users will also benefit by the bookkeeping 6j stem%f the Citizens Gas Company, although not to the same extent. Claicnce L. Kirk, general man- | ager and secretary of the company, j explained by saying that gas meters lon the south side are-read between ' the first and tenth of the month, between Washington and Sixteenth Sts., between the /tenth and twentieth, and north of Sixteenth St., the last ten days of the month for the thirty days previous. To make the reduction from $1.15 to sl.lO effective on July 1 would rave necessitated a complete revision of the bookkeeping system, Kirk said. It was decided that it Would be less expensive in the long run to lose 5 cents a thousand on gas than to change the system. Coke production is being held to a rn.inimtlm,-Kirk said. Adverse business conditions liave affected the Voke market seriously, he explained, and the company is producing the greater part of its gas at the water gas plant. “We have no intention of piling up a large coke surplus under preset.t conditions,” he declared.
