STATE 0. A, R. ENDING SESSION Election of Officers Set for Today. Bn United Press GARY, Ind., June 16.—Indiana’s army of G. A. R. veterans, dwindled now to a brave handful, was disbanding today as delegates to the forty-eight annual encampment wound up details of their business sessions. Election of officers was the final item of business the Grand Army and its auxiliaries were considering following decision to hold the 1928 convention in Columbus. The aged veterans, who have been making a holiday of their visit to the Steel City, celebrated the year’s final session last night with a campfire addressed by Governor Ed Jackson. Mrs. Bertha Twiddle of Montpelier was named president of the Women’s Relief Corps late Wednesday. Other W. R. C. officers were to be named today. The full list of officers of the Ladies of the G. A. R. includes: Mrs. Edna Daughlin, Rushville, president; Mrs. Edna Martin, Terre Haute, vice president; Cora Trueblood, Vincennes, junior vice president; Edna Sheridan, Marion, treasurer; Dora Corbin, Lafayette, chaplain; Mary B. Clevenger, Logansport, patriotic instructor, and Nellie P. Stammer, Indianapolis, counselor. Bridge Repair to Be Asked A petition asking repair of the Indiana Ave. bridge over Fall Creek or erection of anew structure will be presented to the board of works by the Riverside Civic Association. The association met Wednesday night at the South Grove clubhouse.

WHAT HAS HAPPENED DIANA BROOKS, beautiful daughter of Rogers Brooks, owner and publisher of the Catawba City Times and a chain of nine other newspapers, had been kidnaped, then released. Her father is engaged in a persistent fight against the corrupt administration of Catawba City anil through the medium of the Times, redoubles his scathing attacks on politicians of the Ring and the Underworld. Later, Brooks himself is kidnapped and in five days released. On his return he finds that his newspaper stock is being manipulated. He suspects John W. Walden and determines to fight. Brooks’ closest friend is Donald Keene, his literary editor, who is guardian of Teddy Farrell, reporter and Sob Sister, Teddy loves Don.. He, however, believes himself in love with Lola Mantel!, Diaim’s cousin. Diana, in response to a call telling her that Lola is detained at a roadhouse with a sprained ankle, goes to her. She finds that she is the victim of a ruse on the part of John W. Walden, Jr., an unscrupulous suitor who locks her up in a remote part of the inn. He beg her to marry him, then, when repulsed, becomes maddened and attacks her. Diana has managed to call the Times and Teddy comes to her aid. NOW READ ON: CHAPTER XXXIII Walden’s distended eyes bloodshot, staring, remained fixed. He seemed like a man in the grip of hypnosis. “Diana!” came the call again from the other side of the door, the voice of Teddy, “let us in, can’t you?” The words appeared to strike into Walden's dazed brain, to bring him to a realizing sense of things. “Us!” he muttered, “what in hell—” He broke off short with a vile oath at the sound of a body being hurled against the door. This was repeated twice, three times, and at the third attempt the lock gave way, the door swung in with a crash and Dinny Morrison was precipitated bodily into the room, bringing up short in its center. His gaze flashed around the place, taking in the situation in one swift glance. He saw Diana, blood streaming from a scratch on her cheek, her flimsy gown half torn from her body. Four feet away stood Walden, also in a state plainly indicating recent combat. His gaze turned back to the girl again, evidently the victim of assault. Then, without uttering a word of warning he stepped forward, his right fist came up in a swift uppercut, catching Walden full on the point of the chin. In the language of the ring it was a “haymaker,” or would have been with a man fifty pounds lighter than John Walden. But the latter’s 190 pounds saved him from a knockout just then, although he went down, knocked backward to the wall, where he sank to the floor. But Walden was no quitter whatever else he was. Astonished was written plainly on his face as he sat there staring at the slender figure above him. This gave way the next instant to a look of wild rage as he clambered to his feet and lunged forward, aiming a blow. The blow split the air over Dinny’s left shoulder as he side-stepped. Walden whirled with surprising quickness for so big a man. This brought his left side before the reporter. Again the right came up, but this time in a half swing. Dinny’s fist caught the big lawyer fair and square under the ear. The blow didn’t knock him over. He just sank down, his knees buckling and hit the floor with a resounding bump. Then his body fell over on one side and he lay there, still but for a choking gurgle that came with each breath. “Oh, Dinny, you—you —” Teddy was staring, not at the form on the floor but at her escort, her long-suffering, long-loving, would-be sweetheart. There was intense admiration mixed with a vast

wonder in her wide-open fascinated eyes. Her Dinny had knocked the hated enemy of her dearest friend into Cuckoo-land with just two blows of his fist. He was a hero, Dinny was, even if she couldn’t love him as he deserved. “Oh, Dinny!” she gurgled again, “you—you darling! I’m—l’m just going to kiss you for that!” And she did—kissed him swiftly and explosively full on the mouth. Dinny almost fainted from pure rapture. Gone was all recollection from his mind of his recent encounter with Walden. Gone was everything but just the joy and sweet realization of that kiss. If she never kissed him again—if he never felt again the delight that lay in the touch of her lips—he had at least the memory of that one brief caress—and given voluntarily, too! That was the joy of it. He looked at her, adoration in his gaze. < Then his eyes turned. He looked at the form on the floor. It was showing symptoms of returning life. The legs jerked: the arms jerked; the muscles of the face and neck twitched and the mouth twisted gortesquely. Then the bloodstreaked eyes, popping out like doorknobs, rolled wildly. A groan gurgled through the smashed lips. Four times Walden essayed to rise. Each time he dropped back. On the fifth attempt he negotiated a sitting posture. Dazedly he looked about him, his pop-eyes blinking. Diana, watching him, disgust and dislike etched in every line of her face, marvelled at the repulsivness of him. He didn’t seem like a man. She turned to Teddy with a wan little smile. “Take me home, dear. I’ll tell you about it later. This place”—a shudder shook the slender body—“fills me with horror, and he”—she indicated the man she had fought so desperately—“ugh! ” As they started to leave Dinny looked again at the fallen Walden.

The lawyer’s countenance indicated returning understanding. “Get this, Walden,” he said, bending threateningly over the other; “if you ever so much as glance at Miss Brooks again, or speak to her, what you got this time is nothing. Next time I’ll kill you!” The trio crept cautiously down the stairs and past the suave young man at the desk. Diana caught an instantaneous flash of surprise in the clerk’s dark eyes. To their right, they could see a large group sitting at tables in the huge hall, while in the center a spotlight played on a glttering quadroon shimmy queen. The orchestra was blaring a wild accompaniment. “Which of these is yours, Miss Brooks?” asked Dinny w’hen they had arrived at the driveway outside. He motioned toward the cars parked in a row. She indicated the flivver she had used. “I’ll drive your car,” volunteered Dinny “and w r e’ll tow my coupe behind.” He sprang forward and eagerly assisted Diana into the rear seat, tipping his hat respectfully. “You’re nice, Dinny, thanks,” the girl said, giving him a feeble but affectionate smile. “Shall I sit with you and hold you co yrv don’t get jarred too much?” asked Teddy solicitously. “No, never mind, dear. Don’t bother, I’ll be all right.” Teddy jumped in beside Dinny around whom she had woven a brand new halo. She decided to treat him with more respect after this. “Dinny, wherever did you learn to hit like that?” she asked lyThis was Dinny's hour. Under the tribute his chest expanded. He threw his head back proudly. “Oh, that,” he explained. with nonchalance, “I train right along at Kid Kalitsky’s gymnasium. It’s my special hobby.” “Do you swim, too?” pursued Tec’ Jy with awe. “Am bet. I’m a regular lifesave “1 swim some myself,” announced Teddy modestly. “Do you fer a fact? Say”—Dinny’s brain was giving birth to a bright idea, “tomorrow’s Saturday.

Let’s you and I go out to\ a picnic, are you on?” Teddy nodded. “All set, then. Put your bathing suit on at the house. I’ll call for you and bring eats. We’ll spend the afternoon at the beach. “Uh-uh," gurgled Teddy. She turned in her seat to face Diana. “Yoli’re a real life saver yourself, Diana,” she said generously. “You had a chance to test your prowess when you saved Don’s life in the storm.” ‘lt’s a question whether I saved his life or • you, Teddy,” replied Diana gently. “It’s certain that if you hadn’t dug out of that sub-cel-lar there wouldn’t have been any Don for me to save.” “Don’s a prince i” remarked Dinny unexpectedly although he felt that Teddy had changed from the subject of him, Dinny, almost too easily. Lola had been surprised when reaching home after a long ride in the afternoon to find that Diana had gone out and had not returned. “Miss Brooks was rather ill, have you any idea where she went?” she asked Gretta. Gretta had no idea. Miss Brooks had taken the Ford and left in a hurry without saying anything. She had been called on the phone. That was all the maid knew. Pop had brought Don home with him for dinner to discuss the investigations of the Times’ business affairs. Mrs. Ingram advised that dinner be deferred until Diana returned. They waited. At seven o’clock Gretta complained that the food would be spoiled frfim standing, so

Lola, Don and Pop sat down to eat, each searching for an explanation of Diana’s absence. Don was the first to see her and sprang to his feet with a glad cry when Diana, followed by Dinny and Teddy, filed into the dining-room. He was dumbfounded at the condition of her clothing. “Diana!” he cried and bent tenderly over her, taking her limp hand in his own. “Finish your dinner,” she interrupted, “and let Gretta get something for Teddy and Dinny. I’ve eaten,” she added ruefully. A little later she told her story, recalling Walden’s threat to break her father. Brooks’ fists doubled and Don’s face hardened. (TO BE CONTINUED) Don—or Binny? What will Teddy decide—Read the next chapter.
