DRIVERS ON DIXIE TRIP SMITE Only Five of Huge Motor Party Come Here, Others Scared Out by Horse Thief Detectives and Poor Roads Dinner Served. MAYOR SYMPATHETIC IN WELCOME SPEECH ‘l’ll Take the Cement Every Time, Too,’ Says Shank, Denouncing Highway Between Here and Danville, 111. Undaunted by Indiana’s roads and horse thief detectives, five Chicago motorists departed from Indianapolis today on the second leg of the Dixie Highway motorcade, commemorating the tenth anniversary of the great national artery, after having been royally entertained by local good road enthusiasts. Somewhere outside of Indiana, they planned to join the caravan of more than fifty motor cars, whose drivers did not come through Indiana. Headed by William G. Edens, director of the Illinois division of the Dixie highway, the quintet that did come through Indiana enjoyed a banquet and entertainment at the Claypool and learned of some of the good things about the State. Mayor Shank, kept the Illinois delegation and more than 100 local persons present in a constant uproar. Shank first asked the Illinois delegation to stand up. Only five men stood.
Mayor Talks Roads “I heard the rest of your gang ran around Indiana,” said the mayor. “I reckon they were so ’fraid of the horse thief detectives that they dodged us. But I can’t blame ’em. Qosh, these roads are fierce. Why, that road from here to Danville, 111., is awful. I’m for a straight paved road —none of this three miles here and three miles there stuff for me. It’s a shame we can’t go to Chicago on a good road. Boys, I’ll take the cement every time. “I had to travel 18,000 miles of these Indiana roads, between here and Kendallville, to get Mrs. Shank, and I thought they were the rottenest roaifri I ever rode. Didn’t mind the going, folks, but it was terrible coming back,” the mayor continued. The mayor introduced Mrs. Shank Indiana chairman of the Dixie Highway auxiliary, who emphasized the necessity of women taking a more active interest in highway betterment. Wampler Speaks Frank Wampler, member of the Indiana public service commission and meeting chairman, related Indiana’s intimate connection with the birth of the'Dixie Highway idea, alluding to Senator Samuel M. Ralston as father of the movement. Neither Ralston nor Tom Taggart, another of the road’s founders, however, were able to attend. Not all that was said at the banquet, however, was detrimental to the State highway system. Thomas H. Adams, Vincennes publisher, told how the politicians have messed up Indiana’s road program. Adams charged “local communities who want to hog highway improvements” with disrupting the Hoosier road program. Edens congratulated the local group of road enthusiasts for the wholesome reception. “From the instant we entered Indiana east of Danville, 111., your reception was complete,” he said. “We were met at the limits of every town in Indiana, and escorted on our way. And your banquet tonight was beyond the fondest expectations,” Edens said. He recalled the first. Dixie Highway Motorcade ten years ago. M. E. Noblet, secretary-manager of the Hoosier State Auto Association, was in charge of the program. FINE FEATHERS COSTLY Girl, 14, Faces Forgery Charges at Columbus.

BOOTLEG FLOOD MAY CUT PRICE OF GAS IN CITY Standard and Independent Companies Say Slashers Dilute Product. Indiana is being flooded with “bootleg” gasoline, selling as low as 15 cents a gallon in some places, according to officials of the Standard Oil Company and the Indiana Petroleum Marketers’ Association. The “bootleg” flood has not reached Indianapolis yet, but may do so any time, bringing a 6 to 7 cent gallon cut in the price of flivver fuel, the gasoline dealers fearfully admit. The price of standard test gas is 21.2 cents here now. Muncie, Richmond, Winchester, Parker and Farmland are some of the places which felt the cut. The cut-price fuel Is “bootleg" gasoline because fly-by-nlght dealers handling the product hammer prices down and legitimate dealers are forced to follow the trend of prices and cut to meet the “unfair" competition, W. H. Trimble, president of the Indiana Independent Petroleum Marketeers Association, said. (Os Inferior Quality Standard Oil officials said much of the “bootleg” gas is of inferior quality—“cracked” gasoline which has been diluted with kerosene. But when the cut product appears on the market reputable dealers are forced to drop their price to meet the competition. A case at Winchester was cited by Trimble in which a gas merchant was found selling his wares at a price 3 cents under the prevailing market. After an investigaton by the Better Business Bureau. It was disclosed the man was diluting his “high test" power with 50 per cent said. Cut at Muncie At Muncie. gasoline prices were cut 6 to 7 cents a gallon to a price of 15 cents a gallon this week by the Standard Oil Company and independent dealers. The “bootlegger” apprehended at Winchester was responsible for starling the price war in Indiana, gasoline dealers declare. Gasoline In other cities, among them Parker, Farmland and Selma, have been hovering around the 15 cent mark for several weeks. At Salamonie, east of Muncie, it is reported that low test gasoline has been sold at 8 cents. “Tire bootlegger is not directly responsible for the cuts,” Trimble explained. “A condition of overproduction actually exists in the United States right now. Freight rates are so high from the west that It is cheaper to ship gasoline from California by boat, through the Panama Canal and up to the east coast than it would be to send the same amount of material by rail from Oklahoma.”
LOCAL AIR LINE READVERTISED City Given New Chance to Be on Mail Route. Stntl ('orrmnonilrnt WASHINGTON, Oct. 10—Postmaster General Harry New today gave Indianapolis another chance to get on an air mail route by announcing bids again will be received on a Chicago-to-Blrmingham route up to Dec. 8. The route will pass through Indianapolis and be a feeder to the transcontinental line. When the route was advertised first, only one bid was received which the department considered unsatisfactory. New declared he believed bidders now fill find the project more attractive, when he readvertised for bids on the route.
SHANK TALKS REAL LIQUOR RAID HERE If Shumaker Accepts My Challenge to Debate I’ll Search Homes From Crown Hill to Monon, Says Mayor.
Was Mayor Shank kidding or did he mean it? That was the question being discussed today by those who attended “A Modern Mikado,” the Elks’ show, Friday night. “If Shumaker accepts my challenge to debate on prohibition, I’ll order Police Chief Rikhoff to search the houses north of Sixteenth St., from Crown Hill to the Monon Railroad for liquor,” Mayor Shank commented to the audience between acts. Shank has declared the man with the money does his drinking uninterrupted while the impecunious toper is the one who receives the officers bearing search warrants at his home. The challenge Shank made to the Rev. Edward S. Shumaker, Indiana Anti-Saloon League superintendent.
ICV HINDS BLOWING AT WASHINGTON Though Mercury Hovers at Fifty Degree Mark, Teams Line Up for Third Tilt of World Series at Nation’s Capital. KREMER,FERGUSON ARE OPPOSING HURLERS Senators Are Given Confidence by One-Day Intermission—Harris to Use Myer, a Rookie, at Third Base. By Henry L. Farrell United Prr* titatf Corretnondrnt WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.— After being held up a day by a bad break in the weather, the Pittsburgh Pirates and Washington Senators were ready today for the third game of the world series. {The prediction of fair and colder for the game was fulfilled this morning. The sun was shining but it was bitterly cold. An Icy wind whistled across the ball park. Judge Landis announced at 10 a. m. that the game would be played, despite the cold weather. A temperature of 50 degrees was not warranted sufficient to cause postponement. Yesterday's game was prevented by rain.
Hanisinen Ready The Senators, every one figured, were a little more ready than the Pirates because the day of rest meant more to them. It gave Ossie Bluege twenty-four hours in which to recover from the thump that he got on the head in the second game and it gave a day of rest to the veteran arm of Walter Johnson and Stanley Coveleskle, who will get another call to duty. Bluege, according to Manager Harris, is almost recovered and ho may be able to play, but no chance will be taken unless the doctor finds him in shape to play. ’’Buddy’’ Myer. the $50,000 New Orleans rookie, will play third base until Bluege gets back and Harris thinks that he will do a good Job or it. Alec Ferguson, one of the prospective heroes of the series will get the call to pitch today for the Senators. Ho was ready to go to the box yesterday and he is not old enough to be bothered by the cold weather today. Against him Bill McKecnnle, manager of the Priates, will use Ray Kremer, who has been one of the best pitchers this season. The Pirates hope that they can break the tie with Kremer in the box and find themselves in a position to take a gamble with Emil Yde, the star southpaw of 1024. If Ferguson gets away with his game today the Senators will be in the same position to take a chance tomorrow and Buck Harris may use either Dutch Ruether or Tom Zachary, his two leading left-handers. Retting Still Even National League men, pointing out that the Pirates were defeated only five or six times during the regular season by left handers. Insisted that the left-handers would not dare to start a southpaw but Harris laughed and said that his two southpaws were not National League pitches. Betting, what little there is of It, was still at even money. It was the general opinion here among the fans who had been told about It that Washington had been outlucked with a trick home run In the second game and that the club would start hitting In the home park.
was reiterated from the stage, but Shank today announced he would not yield to those urging him to argue the merits of the drought with the Rev. C. T. Wilson of Washington, D. C., proposed by the Rev. Jesse P. Bogue, pastor of the North Methodist Episcopal Church. "Say, it would cost me four or five hundred dollars to get the doj*> on the national situation, but, believe me, I know how it’s working in Indiana and so does Shumaker,” said Shank. "Besides, Shumaker is responsible for prohibition in Indiana and he’s the fellow that ought to defend it.” “I called Shank’s hand and now he refuses to debate with Dr. Wilson,” said Bogue today. “I should suggest that the mayor either accept the challenge fer debate with Dr. Wilson or refrain from further remarks about prohibition.”

By Harold Keats i |-s 1 LOIUDA is seeking to sell [j - * I herself to the world as a I- J summer resort. Just as In selling her real estate all rules for measuring, values and Investments are disregarded, so in selling her climate the laws of nature are outraged. Buy sunshine, you are told. But when you buy sunshine you also buy heat in Florida, as In most places. An advertising campaign is now planned to start next spring to bring another horde of tourists and investors south next summer. Floridians with land to sell realize that they cannot make It a go on the winter vacationists only, but must show some use of it for those who want to play in summer. The buyers are doomed to disappointment. Take away the speculative feature, which we have seen will Inevitably die, and the things will not endure the boat of Florida’s nine months Bummer. Not all Florida people are trying to claim for their State a yearround paradise. Scores with whom I have talked agree with H. L.

EVOLUTIONISTS ARE ATTACKED Conference Speaker Assails Darrow. “Evolutionists are trying to palm off cn us an unproved theory,” declared Dr. W. B. Riley, Minneapolis, Minn., in an address Friday night before the Christian conference being held here in Cadle Tabernacle. His subject was "Evolution and the Scopes Trial.” “We believe in science,” Dr. Riley continued, “but we oppose false, socalled science. We favor academic freedom, but will not have agnostic and aesthetic professors forget the rights of taxpayers, and indulge their philosophies at the expense of our sons and daughters.” Dr. Riley assailed Clarence Darrow. who defended Scopes in the evilutlon trial In Tennessee.

will trod the stage of the American Theater in public for the first time in the United States Thursday night at St. Louis. As the honorable president of tho St. Louis Tercentenary Shakespeare Society, Mantell will present “Hamlet” In St. Louis as he has played him for forty-nine years, on Tuesday night. But Thursday night at the American Theater — Hamlet will wear a tuxedo. No Locket Hamlet will not wear the usual locket around his neck with the picture of his father, but will display a modern card case. He will not carry his sword on a belt, but will rave about with a modern sword cane hanging on his arm. That is the way tho 1925 attired Hamlet was reheax-sed in private at English’s during Mantell's present engagement in Indianapolis. "When I first heard of London seeing Hamlet in modem dress clothes, I said to myself, ‘This is rank sacrilege.’ ” Mantell told me. “Then when I became more calm, 1 said to myself, ‘Look here, Bob, this may mean an entire new public awakening to Shakespeare. If .they will come to seo Mr. Hamlet In tuxedo then they will come to see 'King Lear,' ’Macbeth’ and 'The Merchant of Venice,’ as Shakespeare intended them to be presented. “On Thursday night in St. Louis I will say that on last Tuesday I presented 'Hamlet' as Shakespeare intended, tonight I have given you ‘Hamlet’ in modern dress. Take your choice.” No Burlesque Miss Genevieve Hamper, leading woman for Mantell and in private life Mrs. Mantell, said: “We are not going to burlesque ‘Hamlet.’ The lines wll he just the same, a serious drama but the clothes will be modern. “About as modern as I can make poor Ophelia will be to put a dress on her that comes to the knees.” Miss Hamper did not state if Ophelia would roll her stockings. “I am not going to put a golf suit on Hamlet, but he sure will be modem in dress,” Mantell said, t' My king will wear full evening dress and Polonlus, lord chamberlain, will wear a frock coat.” Other members of the company have had to send back to New York to get their modern attire because such things have never been needed on a Mantell tour. “There is lot of detail to be w’orked out in the modern dress production of Hamlet and we nre all up In the nir.” Miss Hamper explained. Alas! The skull of poor Yorick may turn purple Bvhen Hamlet appears in a tuxedo. But a tuxedo Hamlet will wear for the first time in America’ in St. Louis on Thursday night.
