HONOR MAROTT FOR SERVICE IN CITY GAS CASE Friends Pay Tribute to Civic Leader at Dinner. How George J Marott, shoe merchant and hotel owner, stepped into the breath in 1904 and 1905 and saved the gas company lor the citizens of Indianapolis was revealed by G. A Efroymson at a dinner given to Marott at the Marott hotel Wednesday evening The dinner, given by men guests of the hotel, was the occasion for the presentation of a plaque, memorializing Marott's services to Indianapolis from his young manhood, when he came here as an emigrant. The plaque was to have been presented Dec. 10, Marott's seventieth . birthday, but the designer did not have it completed. In paying tribute to Marott, Efroymson said that in a critical period of the city's history Marott, single handed, conducted the fight which finally led to the contract under which the city hopes to take over the Citizen.'* gas properties this year. Marott told of the efforts of private interests at that time to grab unfair franchisee and how he spent his own funds for lawyers and public crusades to prevent the grab. Mayor L. Ert, Slack also gave credit to Marott for the fact that | the vjty now has opportunity to ’ own the gas plants. To perpetuate tribute to Marott's long civic service the guests formed the Marott Anniversary Club, electing Lewis P. Horton president. The plaque inscription includes: j ‘lß6s—George J. Marott—l92B. For more than fifty years a leader in the growth of Indianapolis.” KIDNAPED AND BEATEN. TECH STUDENT IS BACK Roy. 1,1, Tells Police He Was Thrown Out Near Marion.

Because ball-shaped houses are the latest mode in architacture over there, and here you see how an avenue lined with the strange structures will look. They are said to allow for much more fresh air and sunlight than ordinary houses and are being built on a large scale in Germany.

Earlier in the day Hamilton appeared in another department in connection w-ith a $1,020 judgment awarded an apartment house owner, who charged furniture in an apartment occupied by Hamilton had been damaged.

NOSE PUNCH IS IMPORTANT IN INMAN TRIAL Minister’s Daughter Hopes It Will Aid Her to $250,000 Alimony. P.U United Press RENO, Nev., April 11.—Pretty Helen Patton Inman, w T ho is contesting the divorce suit of her millionaire husband, Walker P. Inman, is determined that when the trial jury retires for deliberation it shall know every detail of the husbandly punch which she charges broke her nose. Delaying rebuttal argument with long depositions introduced to prove her charge of cruelty against her husband, Mrs. Inman has recited the complete story of the alleged boxing contest at the Inman home. Aid to 5250.000 The daughter of a Kokomo (Ind.) minister believes that proof of her broken nose and bruised eyes will obtain her a divorce on her countersuit against the heir of the Duke tobacco millions, and $250,000 alimony. The several depositions of New York physicians contained a bothersome point for the jury and failed to reveal whether it was a left uppercut or a right cross that Mrs. Inman charges damaged her nose. Walker was drunk when he struck her. Mrs. Inman charges, and the resultant quarrel was one of several things which led to (far signing of a separation agreement in New York in 1927, Inman, in his testimony, intimated the nose incident was an accident and in turn accused Helene of being intimate with several men and of drinking to excess. Seriousness Denied. Dr. James I. Edgerton and Dr. E. R. Faulkner, whose depositions were introduced by Inman, denied that Helen’s nose injury was serious. Both said they did not notice signs of drinking when called and Faulkner, called by Edgerton for consultation, said he understod that Helen’s nose was hurt when Walker kicked her by accident. The physicians also denied Mrs. Inman's claim that her nose was broken. The trial, now in its fourth week, mostly has been a recitation of indiscretion and intoxication charges. Thousands of pages of testimony are on file.
