$692,000 WILL OE ASKED FOR IMPORT Ordinance for Purchase of Site Will Be Introduced to Council Monday. SPEEDY ACTION CERTAIN Bonds Can Be Sold in 60 Days, Work Rushed, Officials Think. An ordinance authorizing a $692,000 bond issue to purchase the proposed city airport will be introduced in city council Monday night. . The bond issue ordinance has been drafted by Smiley N. Chambers, assistant city attorney, on request of council. The required period of public notice of intention to acquire the 1,000-acre site south of Ben Davis will expire March 18, according to City Clerk William A. Boyce Jr. No remonstrance has been filed on the airport project. Unless rules are suspended, the bond issue ordinance will be held until the next meeting, April 1. It will require about sixty days to sell the bonds and obtain money for purchase of the property. Mayor L. Ert Slack said the administration plans to proceed with acquisition of the ground and construction of a landing field as soon as money is available. The city did not look with favor upon the proposal of the county council to turn over the county poor farm to the city for an airport site. The airport bonds probably will bear 4% per cent interest and be retired in ten series. Interest will start May 15, according to Chambers. * According to the finance plan worked out by A. B. Good, deputy city controller, the first series will be retired in 1944 and the last block of bonds in 1953. Copies of the detailed plans and resolution declaring the council’s intention to acquire an airport have been posted in all public offices* In the city and county. FILE REPLY TO UTILITY ON RATE INJUNCTION Asks Enforcement of Charges on Martinsville. Dismissal of the Wabash Valley Electric company’s suit for permanent injunction against enforcement of a public service commission rate order affeting Martinsville is asked in an answer filed today in federal court by James M. Ogden, Indiana attorney general. The answer denies allegations of the company that the company’s revenue in 1928 was inadequate that the rates in the order were based solely on testimony on the commission’s engineer, that rates set will not yield a return of 7 per cent on the commission’s valuation figure of $87,000 for the property at Martinsville, that the company owns property at $5,026,437 and that operating expenses in 1928 were 1,412,320.

FAME FOLLOWS TIFF WITH FIANCE

Doris Dawson, Film Star by Accident, Teaches Beauty

Everv girl wants to know how she can make herself most attractive, how she can enhance her natural beauty and make her manners captivating. Doris Dawson, youthful Hollywood beauty and movie queen. teL’s how in a series of four interviews with Dan Thomas, Hollywood correspondent of The Times and NEA Service, the first of which appears below. Others will discuss dresses, care of the hair, care of the hands, use of cosmetics, etc. BY DAN THOMAS NEA Service Writer Hollywood, cai., March 15. A scrap with her fiance, a trip to Hollywood to forget their difficulties, and Doris Dawson became a member of the celluloid hamlet’s red-haired club. Prior to that everything had been lovely. Doris was wearing a diamond as big as the third finger on which it reposed. She was going to be married and settle down as a happy New York wife. Then came the quarrel just at a time when Doris’ father was coming to Los Angeles on a business trip. “Come to Los Angeles with me,” he urged. “We will be gone about three months and by the time we get back you will have forgotten all your troubles.’’ Doris forgot all right—but she forgot to go back to New York again. The three-months’ trip stretcched into nine months and by that time the titian-haired girl decided that she was going to stay in Hollywood. Long distance telephone calls, telegrams and letters from the “boy friend” in New York were to no avail. Doris had made up her mind. Sticks on Coast “A girl I had known in New York was working at the Mack Sennett studio,” Doris remarked. “I went to lunch with her one day and then went back to the studio to watch her work during the afternoon. “They were shooting some swimming scenes and needed some girls who could dive- My chum, knowing that I could, said that she would get me a job working in the picture if I wanted to. I declined

ASK LESLIE TO SIGNBOND BILL Act Prevents Prepayment of Assessments. Prepayment of Barrett law assessments again be permitted in Indianapolis unless Governor Harry G. Leslie approves a bill before him prohibiting prepayment throughout the state. This prospect arose today when it was learned that in amending the 1927 act prohibiting prepayment here to provide certain appeal provisions, the legislature inadvertently re-enacted that section of an earlier statute permitting prepayment. Governor Leslie approved this measure Feb. 28. But prepayment will be prevented if Governor Leslie signs the Noll bill now before him. This measure requires interest to continue on Barrett ’law bonds until redeemed and greater effort to collect these assessments by the county treasuer. Consequently, a deficit is created, for there is a loss of interest calculated to meet premiums on the bonds. Representative Frank J. Noll of Indianapolis, conferred with Attor-ney-General James M. Ogden today, urging him to acquaint Governor Leslie with the necessity of approving his bill. The attorneygeneral has recommended approval. The Noll bill would make the prohibition against prepayment statewide. burglar alarmTalse; ONLY REALTY AGENT Cops Called to Vacant House Find Suspect Is Lessee.

Havelick, real estate agent, who holds an option on the place, who was merely looking it over wrtiile the occupants are away on a "vacation. “I never saw so many policemen get into action in such a short time in all my life,” said Havelick when he recovered from the shock of having blue coats swarm in on him from all directions.

WOMAN TIGER TRAINER SCOFFS AT DEATH

BY F. BEVERLY KELLEY PERU, Ind., March 15.—How would you like to give up a nice, sedate, dignified occupation like nursing just to let a flock of Bengal tigers maul you around ■ and chew you considerably and then discover that irate relatives have cut your picture out of the family album, so to speak, because your new calling had to do with a circus? That is what happened to Mabel Stark, petite, blond Kentuckian who is putting sixteen snarling tigers through their paces every day at the American Circus Corporation winter quarters here in preparation for the approaching season under the white tops. Mabel Stark holds the distinction of being the only woman in

Doris Dawson ... do you doubt that she is really attractive? at first, since I had never before given a thought to entering pictures. ‘However, she urged me on and said we would have a lot of fun, so I went to work.” For the next six months Doris worked at Sennett’s, doing bits in comedies. Daddy finished his business about that time and told her they would start for home. She announced that she wasn’t going home. Daddy objected, but Doris stuck to her decision. He finally told her that if she stayed she- would have to be entirely on her own, that he wouldn’t help a single bit. Then he left for New York. For a time the little titianhaired actress was just unfortunate enough to be on the wrong side of the fence. Her salary, when she worked, was small and she didn’t work often. “I *?as just about to give up and go home when I got my contract at First National,” declared Doris.

SISTER FIGHTS TO SAVE BROTHER IN ■HAAG DEATH CASE

Comely Brunette Offers Alibi for McDonald at Trial Here. Rupert McDonald lived in Chicago during May, 1926, driving a taxicab. He couldn’t have been in Indianapolis on May 17 to take part in the holdup at the Green Mill barbecue, in which Wilkifeson Haag, Haag Drug Company official, was murdered. This is the defense on which McDonald expects to escape life imprisonment or death for the Haag slaying, with which he is charged. It was presented for the first time at his trial in criminal court today. Miss Eva McDonald, 20, his modishly dressed and good-looking sister, told the story. State Rests Case The state rested its case at 9:25 a. m. For two hours and a half Miss McDonald was on the stand this morning and the state continued its cross-examination as the afternoon session opened. The girl, a brunette, without powder or paint on her cheeks, and wearing a black velvet dress, said that she is 20 and her brother one month over 21. All during May, 1926, her brother was in Chicago driving a Checker taxicab for her stepfather, now dead. She was never out at night later than 9. Rupert always was at home at night/ He gave her the cab recepts every night. To her knowledge he never was out of Chicago a day or night that month. She kept a note book day by day showing* the taxicab receipts. But she could not produce that book. It was lost or thrown away after her stepfather’s death, when their home was broken up in May, 1928. Forgets Florida Trip “I know of no occasion when my brother went to Florida. I never knew him to be gone that long,” she said. Then Prosecutor Judson L. Stark’s cross-examination began. She recalled that her brother had been gone four months in 1926, that he was in Florida from about the first of January to about April 27 or 30. But she was certain he had returned to Chicago by May 1. The state contends McDonald and Lawrence Ghere, also under indictment tor the gaag murder, staged the held-up here May 17 on their way back from Florida. Asked where her brother had been

Survivor of a score of battles in the steel arena with wild animals, she counts a tussel with a murder-bent Bengal as a part of the day’s work. “I’d rather train my ‘kittens' than do anything else,” explains Mabel. “Os course, it is dangerous work and I expect these cats to finish me some day, but I don’t take foolish chances. There is no such thing as a tamed wild animal." a a a MABEL stark trains only tigers. “They are faster and

“I already had wired daddy for money and bought my ticket when I got a call from First National. After waiting several days I got a contract and wired daddy that I was staying here.” That contract was the actual start of Doris’ career. She was cast in films opposite Richard Barthelmess, Harry Langdon and Charlie Murray In rapid succession. Then the “squawkies” commenced tightening their hold on the celluloid industry and Doris was borrowed by Warner Brothers to play in “The Little Wildcat,” a talking film. Her voice recorded well and her future was assured. “It is difficult to say why I have attained success—if I have,” remarked the vivacious little actress, who was recently named as one of the thirteen Wampas Baby Stars for 1929. “I don’t think any young girl who is trying to get in pictures should attempt to lead much of a social life. Certainly you meet influential people and have a good time. “But even those people aren’t going to give you jobs if you come to the studio looking sleepy and do poor work before the cameras.” “What adviee would you give a girl going into pictures?” I inquired. “I would tell her to stay out of them and get married, particularly if she loved a man,” Doris replied. “Nobody who has never been in pictures can possibly realize the grief we have. “Even since I have been under contract I have had far too many worries for a girl of my age. I sometimes wonder if the fame and money one gets is worth the price.” NEXT: Miss Dawson will advise girls how to dress correctly for all occasionos to make themselves the most attractive.

She did not know her brother had jumped SIO,OOO bail on the robbery charge in Chicago. Ghere and McDonald, according to police and die prosecution, were arrested in Chicago on jewelry robbery charges and won their freedom on bail a few days before Indianapolis police expected to return them here to face murder charges. McDonald, his sister said, was in Los Angeles from August, 1926 to October, 1928, when he was arrested there and brought to Indianapolis.

CHURCH SHIT FILED Title Is Moot Point in Court Controversy.

SHAVE PERILS BEAUTY PARLOR 15,000 Experts Meet to Battle Barbers. B,it United Press CHICAGO, March 15.—Fifteen thousand women of Illinois, who devote their time to making the female easier to look at, met today to discuss a problem which threatens their profession. The men barbers are blamed for the trouble, which was patched up with a “truce” three years ago when the beauty culturists agreed to let the barbers wave hair, and the barbers agreed to let the women give hair cuts. Now, if the lady shops obey the law, they either must be able to shave a man or hire a barber to do the hair cutting. Mrs. Florence E. Harris, an executive of the Chicago and 1 Illinois Hairdressers’ Association, and chairman of the board of examiners of beauty culture for the state, Issued the conclave call. “The men barbers put one over,” Mrs. Harris said. “They obtained a ruling from the attorney-general canceling all licenses for beauty shop operators who have not passed a complete barber examination. Under our truce, women have been granted licenses when they passed a hair-cutting and beauty culture examination. “That means that to obtain a license, a beauty operator must be able to shave. Otherwise she may not cut any hair.” CONCERT TO BE GIVEN New Irvington Presbyteria# Organ to Be Dedicated Tonight.

SCHOOLS WILL SEEK TO SAVE HUGEAMOUNT Architect and Engineer on Salary Urged, to Effect Great Economy. $250,000 IS EXPENDED Fees Mount to Dizzy Height Over Period of Three Years’ Building. More than a quarter million dollars has been spent by the school city for architects and engineer’s fees in constructing sixteen grade and high school buildings in the last three years. Total of these fees on the sixteen buildings, erected at a cost of $4,407,282, was found in data obtained following discussion at the school board meeting Tuesday night of employment by the school city of an architect and engineer, on salary, to prepare plans for new buildings and additions. It has been pointed out by school officials that an architect and an engineer on salary could save the school city a large sum of money over a period of years. Architects’ and engineers’ fees annually require at least a one-cent levy in the school budget, it was pointed out. Politics Would Enter On the other hand, Edward D. Pierre, president of the Indianapolis Architects’ Association, pointed out that appointment of such a school architect would be a political appointment and as such would not be for the best interests of the school city. During a heated debate Tuesday night over plans for Schools 81 and 82, Mrs. Lillian V. Sedwlck, board member, asked President Charles W. Kern: “Why not have an architect take the place of the superintendent of buildings and grounds and save all that money?” “The state tax board repeatedly has this,” Kern replied, “but architects and others have brought influence in this matter, just as influence has been broyght on plans for Schools 81 and 82.” Pierrdf said he had no knowledge of any pressure being brought to bear by the association or any of its members in regard to school work. Pressure Is Charged The “pressure” referred to was the statement of minority school board members that architects were opposing re-use of School 85 plans for Schools 81 and 81, “because they would lose architectural fees.” “Personally, I am opposed to standardization of school buildings, externally at least,” Pierre said. “Each building is a problem in itself. In planning the exterior, the architect must consider the immediate neighborhood, orientation, size and shape of the ground and other phases. “By employing different architects for different buildings, a variety of ideas is obtained and monotony in outward appearance of building is avoided. A city’s school buildings help express the city’s individuality. “Architects would be glad to cooperate in any way to work out a more economical system of designing. I am sure 'they all favor anything that would reduce cost* of school government operation.” 5 Per Cent Is Fee Customary fees for architects and engineers on school buildings are 5 per cent of the amount of the general contract, to the architect, and 5 per cent of the other contracts, including plumbing, heating, ventilating, and lighting, to the engineer. Those favoring the plan of a salaried architect and an engineer assert this would prevent a repetition of expensive plans for Shortridge high school, which cost a total of $103,556. Original plans for Shortridge were drawn by the firm of Kopf & Wooling, costing $43,775, which' were rejected. Later Kopf & Deary, successors of Kopf & Wooling, were engaged to draw new plans, which cost $59,781. The architect’s and Engineer’s fees on the $470,000 Washington high school were $26,810. Harrison 6 Tumock received both the architect’s and engineer’s contract. Fees for Crispus Attucks high school were $26,810, Vonnegut, Bohn & Mueller had this contract.
