BRITISH TRAINS CRASH HEAD-ON; 22 KNOWN DEAD Wreck Worst in Years in England; Many Trapped in Cars. By United Press DARLINGTON, England, June 28.—A swiftly moving excursion train, carrying 200 passengers, many of them women, collided head-on early today with a freight train at the South Darlington station and the death toll thus far is twentytwo. Five of those killed were women and there were forty persons in hospitals, some in very serious condition. Impact of the trains was terrific. One witness said that the ‘‘force of the collision was so great that one engine was tossed across the line while the other somersaulted.” Three coaches of the excursion train were telescoped. Scene Is Pitiful There were most pitiful scenes. The collision occurred shortly after midnight at a darkened spot along the roadway. The crash of the two trains soon was followed by screams from the passengers, injured and trapped within the shattered cars of the excursion train. Rescue crews quickly were mobilized and, working by lantern light, had to cho ptheir way through the tangled and broken cars to reach the victims. t Some of those injured and killed were horribly hutilated and identification was most difficult. Rush Aid to Scene Ambulances, doctors and nurses were mobilized quickly and sent to the scene of the disaster, while hospitals close by soon were crowded with victims. With the exception of the wartime wreck at Gretna, when 227 soldiers were killed, today’s accident was the worst on a British railway since 1906.

Audley Dunham Selected to Repair Hand-Tooled Bronze Bertelli By DAN M. KIDNEY ‘‘Bertelli, Paris.” This name might not mean much to the ordinary citizen of Indianapolis, but when Audley Dunham came across it hand-tooled on the working parts of a huge lock he was mending he thrilled with the romance of his trade. For Bertelli has been dead nearly a century. Yet at the time the sans culotte paraded with pikes in the French capital, years before the rise of Napolean, the name Bertelli was beginning to appear on doorlocks throughout the city of Paris. By the time the French republic was established, Bertelli had become a synonym for soundness and safety in lock construction. So much so that the citizens, who had some years previously stormed the bastile

The Bertclli lock, (above) Audley Dunham and the Queen Victoria padlock (below) were buying Bertelli locks to keep well jailed their own prisoners, whom they considered the enemies of the Republic. Repairs Old Bertelli What few royalists remained after the guillotine had been taken off the twenty-four-hour shift probably were barred from the outer world by strong Bertellis. Just such a lock is the one which Dunham has repaired. It was sent here from New Orleans, where for nearly a century it has seen service in the old French quarter. A bronze key was also enclosed. It weighs a full pound, giving some idea of the giant size of these old lymd-made locks. Hayd-made Knobs “This lock was undoubtedly one of the first ever made to function with knobs,” Dunham explains “Bertelli was an experimenter. Before his time all locks worked with latches. It was he who contrived the round knob, commonplace today.” The knobs that came with the ancient Parisian lock from New Orleans are not'commonplace. They are of solid bronze, hand fashioned. Dunham, whose establishment is at 1932 N. Illinois St., is a student of lock lore. He was given a course in

L.. after his name This t lands for Doctor of Locks, he says. So pleased was he upon receipt of a real Bertelli to repair that he has obtained permission from the owners to exhibit it at the Indiana State Fair this fall. It will appear alongside a’ huge padlock, which one time served to lock a door in one of Queen Victoria’s castles. The crown and initials "VR” appear on it. RUNS DOWN PIKE’S PEAK ————— * Negro Claims 48 Minutes Trip Breaks 25 Years Record I By United Press COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., | June 28 Dolphus Stroud, Negro, claims to have broken a record established twenty-five years ago by running down Pike’s Peak in fortyeight minutes.

SLATE HODGES FORJABINET Retiring Q. 0. P. Treasurer May Succeed Work. By United Press SUPERIOR, Wis., June 28. William V. Hodges of Denver, retiring Republican national committee treasurer, is mentioned here as the probable successor of Dr. Hubert Work, Secretary of the Interior. Secretary Work is expected to hand his resignation to the President when he visits Cedar Island Lodge, the summer White House, netx week preparatory to assuming his new post as chairman of the Republican national committee, which entails supervision of the Hoover-Curtis campaign. Hodges’ regularity as a straight party man was said to be his outstanding asset for the Cabinet post. In Colorado State politics, as well as in the national political field, Hodges has taken a prominent part, devoting virtually his entire time to Republican interests. Advocates of his appointment have emphasized the President's desire to reward those who have put the party's welfare above self interests, and Hodges was listed as one of the dominant figures in that class. PETITION TO KEEP GAS Hope Residents Offer to Pay Increase for Service A petition has been filed with the Public Service Commission by 200 citizens of Hope.
