HOPE SPURRED THAT DIRIGIBLE MAY BE SAVED Faint Radio Messages Are Received by Ship, Asking for Aid. Bn Vn(ted Press KINGS BAY, Spitzbergen, June 8. —Hope that the dirigible, Italia, last heard of two weeks ag' v today as she sailed through storms irom the North Pole, soon might be found increased today with receipt of new radio signals by the Citta di M.iano, supply ship. The commander of the vessel told the United Press that several weak, garbled signals had been received within the last few hours. “We are not certain they emanated from the crew of the Italia, but the possibility appears greater than hitherto,” the commander said. The messages intercepted, although difficult to read because they were so badly garbled and weak, definitely called for help, the commander said. Despite constant vigilance by those working the radio on the Citta Di Milano, they could not learn the exact position from where the messages were sent. The signals were interrupted repeatedly and the Citta di Milano constantly was at the task of attempting to re-establish contact with the station tending out the signals. It is the first time in the long period that has passed since Gen. Umberto Nobile, commander of tpe Italia, radioed that he was striking head winds, that the Citta di Milano has heard signals it believed might tend to throw light on the fate of the Italia. U. S. Amateur Gives Clew Bn United Press ALTOONA, Pa., June 8- Hyde Amos, amateur radio operatoi nere, reported intercepting a radio message bearing on the dirigible Italia, now lost for two weeks. The message said the position of the Italia now was 84:15:10 north and 15 21:40 east (north and slightly east of Spitzbergen). Amos said he missed part of the signal, but that which he heard read: “S O S Nobile. No shelter, but remain against mountain. Temperature freezing. Position 84:15:10 north; 15:20:40 east. Rush food. All alive, but several injured. Heapd no calls.”

ERNEST BLOCH WINS SYMPHONY CONTEST Musical America Today Announces That Judges, Made Up of Leading Musicians in This Country, Select "America’ as Winner. - x THE current issue of Musical America announces that Ernest Bloch’s epic rhapsody, “America,” has been awarded the $3,000 prize offered in Musical America’s symphony contest. Mr. Bloch’s score was unanimously selected from ninety-two scores submitted to the five judges of the contest.
The judges were Walter Damrosch, one of the conductors of the recently merged New York Symphony and Philharmonic Orchestras; Frederick Stock, conductor of the Chicago Symphony; Leopold Stokowski, conductor of the Philadelphia Orchestra; Serge Koussevitsky, conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and Alfred Hertz, conductor of the San Francisco Orchestra. Ernest Bloch, composer of the prize-winning score, livf.s in San Francisco and is director of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. According to Frederick Stock conductor bf the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, “Ernest Bloch’s score is in our opinion the outstanding great work of Musical America's entire contest. The work is a rhapsody in three parts, a w’ork of symphonic dimensions, dramatic, melodious, characteristically American in fiber and thought, a worthy and lasting contribution to American symphonic literature, and a work which after a short time will enjoy the popularity of both the symphony by Cesar Franck and' Dvorak’s froyi the new world. “I feel as if I may speak in behalf of the other judges of the contest by saying that the musical world owes a large debt of gratitude t? Musical America for the fine generosity shown in offering this prize.” The prize-winning score will be performed next season by the New York Philharmonic, the Boston Symphony, the Philadelphia Symphony, the Chicago Symphony, and the San Francisco Svmhony orchestras. It is probable that Walter Damrosch will conduct the first performance of the work next fall with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra. Ernest Bloch, the winner of Musical America’s contest, is one of the most prominent composers of the day. He was born in Geneva, Switzerland, on July 24, 1870, of Jewish parents. He has conducted his orchestral works in Boston, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland, St. Paul, Minneapolis, St. Louis, San Francisco and Switzerland. In 1916 he came to America as a conductor of Maud Allen’s tour; in 1917 he settled in New York as a teacher at the David Mannes
School. In '1920 he was called to Cleveland, Ohio, as head of the new Cleveland Institute of Music, and in 1925 he accepted a position as director of the San Francisco Conservatory, a position which he sti.l holds. Four other scores in Musical America’s contest received honorable mention. They are: “Broadway,” a symphonic work by Samuel Gardner; a “Jazz Suite by Louis Gruenberg;" a symphony by Robert Russell Bennett, and “The Piper,” by Winter Watts. The prize winning score is dedicated to the memory of Abraham Lincoln and Walt Whitman “whoth visions have unheld its inspiration.” “This symphony,” adds Bloch, “has been written in love for this country; in reverence for its past, in faith in its future.” The following passage Is affixed to the first cage of Bloch’sscore: “The ideals of America are imperishable. They embody the future credo of all mankind: a union, in common purpose and under willingly accented guidance of widely diversified races, ultimately to become of one race, strong and great. But as Walt Whitman has said. ‘To hole’ men together by paper and seal or by commilsion, is no account. That cnly holds men together which aggregates all in a living princinle, as the hold of the limbs of the body or the fihe’-s of plants. “Though this symnhony is not dependent on a program the compose'wants to emphasize that he ha? been inspired by this very ideal. “The anthem which concludes the work as its apotheosis, symbolizes the destinv, the mission of America. The symphony is entirely built upon it. Frcm the first bars, it appears. ; in root, dimly, slowly taking shape, rising, failing, developing, and finally asserting itseff. vieto r '"’”' I y, in its complete and decisive form. “It is the hope of the composer that this anthem will become known and beloved, that the audience will rise to sing it, becoming thus an active and enthusiastic part of the work and its message of faith and hope.” Indianapolis theaters today offer: “Tommy” at English’s; “The Wood-

June B.—The Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company will resist tapping of its telephones by Government agents seeking court evidence, it announced today. A. E. Berry, president of the company, which serves ythe District of Columbia, Virginia, Maryland and West Virginia, issued the following statement: “As we understand it, the United States Supreme Court does not approve wire-tapping, though its recent decision makes evidence secured by tapping admissable in a criminal prosecution. ‘ln most States, intercepting and divulging telephone conversations is prohibited by law. Tapping wires for such purposes is a trespass upon the property of the telephone company, which it will resist.” Gift of $2,009 to School /?;/ Times Specinl BRAZIL, Ind..

‘HONEST SELLING BEST’ Real Estate Board Hears Talk on Salesmanship. Honesty is the best single rule of salesmanship, declared H. N. Tolies, Chicago, Sheldon School president, before the Indianapolis Real Estate Board Thursday at the Chamber of Commerce. “A good salesman should leave more than he takes away if he wishes to be successful. We are fast entering a period in American commerce where salesmanship is becoming a profession,” said Tolies. “The salesman must be a master of the great scientific study of reading men.”
Do You Know What a Woman of 3G Should Weigh? It all depends on her height #f course. If she is five feet seven inehes in height she should weigh according to the best authorities 142 pounds. If she is 5-feet 5 inches her normal weight is 1.04 pounds. If she is 3 feet 3 inches she should weigh 127 pounds. It's dangerous to be always striving to grow thin—the Adirondack Mountains and health resorts everywhere are filled with health shattered women who will tell you that It doesn't pay to be too thin. That is why so many thousands of underweight men and women are putting their faith in McCoy's Tablets. McCoy takes all the risk—Head this iron-lad guarantee. If after taking 4 sixty cent boxes of McCoy's Tablets or 2 One Dollar boxes any thin, underweight man or woman doesn't gain at least 3 pounds and feel completely satisfied with the marked improvement in health—yonr druggist is authorized to return the purchase price.
