ALIS CONFIDENT AS LAST MONTH OF DRIVE OPENS Enters Final Vote Scrimmage in Good Physical Condition. BY THOMAS P. STOKJSS United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON Oct. 10.—Governor Alfred E. Smith enters the last month of his campaign for the residency, with his victory psychology rampant despite Wall Street betting odds against hi^ni. He has been defeated for public office but once, a record similar to that of President Coolidge, aw hence he radiates confidence and good health. Seasoned political observers at this stage are hesitant in predicting the outcome of the presidential race this year because of a number of factors which may swing it unexpectedly one way or the other. Smith says the last week of a campaign is the most important. He points to victories in New York State which he believes he won in the closing days, because his opponents, as he phrases it, "spilled the beans.” He will play for the "breaks” in this last phase of the campaign. Nominee Is Confident Smith enters this final scrimmage in good physical condition. He thinks his western trip made many votes for him. Democrats have renewed confidence in that area because of his personal appearance and his speeches there. He went before them the “Al” Smith that New York knows, talked in the language of the ordinary man,2 and the people seemed to like it. At Oklahoma City, he challenged the "whispering campaign” against him, embodying all sorts of reports about his religion, his Tammany affiliations and his personal life. He found the religious issue and the "Tammany Issue” also raised against him in other parts of the west. Os all his western speeches, the Democratic candidate said he had received most approval for the nne at Oklahoma City. Opponents on Defense When he entered his own stale after the western tour and spoke a f Rochester, he drew fire immediately from Republican state leaders whom he denounced as ‘obstructors” of his program. Eagerly, he replied to them from his vacation retreat in Albany. “Let them pull all the bunk they want to. I have them on the defense,” he said. There are several issues Smith has not disoussed, to which he will devote his attention in the rest of the campaign. He will speak on the tariff and the use of Federal injunctions in labor disputes. He •will challenge Republican claims of prosperity and of governmental economy, and will further discuss prohibition, farm relief, immigra tion and waterpower. Whether or not he will make a speech on foreign affairs is not known at this time. Reads While Burglar Works By United Press .

BILL GETS NEARER TO RILEY’S'THRONE ‘Hitch and Come In’ Has the Merry Swing of Good Healthy Indiana Life From Farm to Main Street. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN IT seems to me that Bill Herscheli got nearer to the throne of Riley than ever before with his new collection of poems, "Hitch and Come In.” The first poem, bearing the title of the book, breathes the spirit of Hoosier land from farm to Main Street. And, William Herscheli has dedicated this book of verse “to the spirit of old-time hospital, ty and friendship.” The latch string seems to be hangin’ out, just invitin’ you to open the pages and get chummy with the many printed words in rhyme.

In his first poem in this collection, Bill paints for you the old days when the stranger was always welcomed and the parlor was filled -There songs were sung. He pictures the surrey and the horse hitched outside the door and closes with a plea in this motor driven age to keep on sayin’ to the stranger, "Hitch and Come In.” It is when Herscheli gets right into the heart of the Hoosier home that he gets nearest to Riley’s throne. I really thing that Herschell has mounted several steps leading to this throne. You fall right under the homely spell of good livin’ and eaun’ when you read "Corn on the Cob.” My friend Henry Behrens has always insisted that there was no art in the great Hoosier sport of eatin’ corn on the cob. But Henry claims he is an expert, although nbt an artist at playin’ a tune on corn on the cob. Bill Herscheli tells you “ain't had nothin’ to eat” until you "butterkissed” a hot, long ear of” Hoosierborn corn” straight f r om the boilin’ pot. And you can picture this sight when Herscheli composes: “Corn wasn’t designed Fer people refined. It never was meant to be neat: You pin your ears back. Then slide down th’ track With reckless abandon—an’ eat.” I like that poem, "Corn on the Cob,” because it takes us all back to the thought of real eatin’. And Herscheli has caught that same spirit of home life, gloriously honest, in "Eating in the Kitchen.” And you will get a merry chuckle when you read Bill’s poem named "Back Seat Radio.” Herscheli has caught the comedy and the tragedy of ma trying to tell dad to tune in on a church station, where they are singin’ gospel songs, instead of gettin’ the basketball games. There are serious poems in "Hitch and Come In,” just published by the Bobbs-Merrill Company of this city. There are poems with the majestic gesture toward high poetry, but it is when Herscheli gets right down among the folks that he gets mighty, j mighty close to Riley’s throne. LOOKING OVER A MYSTERY THRILLER Mystery clubs for reading purposes alone seem to be having their day just now. I sure am getting quite a collection of mystery stories lately. The other day E. P. Dutton & Cos. sent me a copy of “The Seven Sisters” by Jean Lilly. This story is just light reading. There are several nice murders and near ones. Bodies are dug up at night and strange things happen in a yard. Here is thrilling pastime. Not great literature but you will have a jolly evening living down your fears when you finish this one. Indianapolis theaters today offer: Red Grange at the Lyric; "Simba” at the Murat; “The Singing Fool” at the Apollo; Charlie Davis at the Indiana; "Uncle Tom's Cabin ’ at the Circle; “While the City Sleeps” at the Pa*lace; "Girl Revue” at the Colonial; burlesque at the Mutual, and "House of Bondage” at the Band Box.

Radio RADIO SHAKEUP PROMISED FOR WEST Indiana, lowa, Wisconsin Will Be Affected by New Order. BY ROSCOE B. FLEMING Times Stall Correspondent WASHINGTON, Oct. 10— Radio shakeup impends in the Middle West, brought on by the protests of stations in Indiana, lowa and Wisconsin, against the proposed re-allocation of wave lengths, effective Nov. 11. The shakeup is expected to hit the group of big stations around Chicago, which would have six and one-half of the cleared channels for high power broadcasting established in the re-allocation. Illinois, under the broadcasting law as interpreted by the commission, was entitled to only two and a fraction wave lengths in these cleared channels. Indiana was entitled to one, but her only 5,000 watt station, WOWO, at Ft. Wayne, was allotted to a single channel with three other stations, to receive four-sevenths of the time. Wisconsin, also entitled to at least one of the cleared channels, had no station of high enough power to qualify. lowa fared somewhat better, but Governor Hammill led a delegation to Washington to protest against the State’s allotments, and received a promise that more channels would be granted. Promptly the broadcasters of Wisconsin and Indiana joined in the proest. Asa result the commission is expected today or tomorrow to announce new allocations for the Mid-West zone. The commission also has postponed until Jan. 31 its order to limit chain broadcasting. This would have been effective Nov. 11. The commission expects to get the opinion of Congress before entering a final order. Fox Hunters to Meet Pi/ Times Sficeinl NORTH VERNON.

INDIANAPOLIS MAN INDORSES KONJOLA AS BODY BUILDER Says It Helped Him to Regain His Health and Strength.

Health Is the greatest asset we can possess. Without it life is uninteresting and we never seem to attain the utmost happiness we all strive so hard to acquire. Many of us go on from year to year with the half-sick feeling that comes

from a rundown and disordered inner-system, complaining of aches and pains and remarking about the tired, drowsy feeling that comes over us so often. Since the introduction of the new Konjola medicine, many thousands of people throughout the Central and Middle West have voluntarily offered strong words of praise, and many hundreds of local men and women have given their signed statements to the Konjola Man at Hook’s drug store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, telling of the wonderful benefits they have derived from this celebrated compound. One of the latest to describe the new health they have received from Konjola is a well-known citizen of Indianapolis, Mr. Edw. W. Middleton, who for sixteen years has served as an attendant at the West Gate of the Crown Hill Cemetery, living at 3235 Boulevard Place, this city. "It Is a pleasure for me to recommend a medicine like Konjola,” said Mr. Middleton. "I have never offered my public indorsement before, but I believe I am doing the right thing by telling others how this medicine helped me to regain my health and strength. "I had never been able to determine just what made me feel so weak and rundown, but for quite some time, I was very nervous and always had that half-sick feeling. This general weakness made it rather hard for me to get the utmost out of life. I tried various tonics, but none of them seemed to do me any good. My appetite was poor, and although the food I did eat caused me scarcely any trouble, at the same time, it did not nourish me properly. Finally, my nerves gave out under the strain and at times I was very Irritable and cross. Even at night my condition bothered me and 1 did not sleep well at all. This made me feel all the worse the next day. "The unusual praise and recommendation so many reliable people of this city were giving Konjola convinced me that this medicine must have merit. I began investigating and inquiring about Konjola, and found that it did all that is claimed for it. I made up my mind then to try it myself. Now I am convinced that this medicine is splendid for a rundown condition of the entire system. It did not take any great amount to make a change in my health. Very soon after I started taking it I began feeling better every day, and my appetite steadily increased. My nerves are steady now and do not give me any trouble at all. That constant half-sick feeling has given way to one of vigor and energy. I always enjoy a good night’s rest and I wake up in ..he morning feeling fine. Since I have benefited to such an extent, I cannot help but tell others about ihis wonderful body builder.” The Konjola Man is at Hook’s drug store, Illinois and Washington streets, Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining the merits of this remedy. Konjola is sold at every Hook store in this city aid by Ml d'-r-y’-'-. •' ’ughout this SeCUuit, Auvti. USi-m.—
