100.000 to Attend Annual Meeting in Los Angeles Week of June 3. BY DAN THOMAS, NEA Service Writer LOS ANGELES, May 31. A $1,000,000 motion picture electrical pageanf the most colorful display in the history of Shrine meetings, is the highlight of the fifty-fifth annual conclave, which opens here June 4. Parading before 90,000 spectators in Los Angeles coliseum, forty illuminated floats, forming a line two miles long, will be interspersed by movie stars riding in brilliantly lighted automobiles. In addition to seven major events scheduled as the entertainment features, five performances of a circus and several parades will be held in the huge stadium. The absolute lack of hotel accommodations will force many of the 100,000 delegates and their families to live in special trains which will bear them here. Although the formal opening of the three-day convention will not
take place until June 4. a special pre-convention trip to Catalina island is planned for June 3. A march of forty Shrine bands and thousands of Shriners in colorful regalia to the coliseum will take place the first day. The parade is in honor of Leo P. Youngworth, who will be elected imperial potentate at the meeting. Following the afternoon festivities, a real Hawaiian banquet will be served to the delegates and their wives at the Biltmore hotel. Many special dishes, peculiar to the Hawaiian Islands, will be prepared by a native chef. The second day some 6,000 Stainers will travel by special train to participate in a Spanish fiesta and Santa Susanna, where they will barbeque. The roasting of whole steers and the preparing of fiery Spanish dishes is to be one unusual feature. Thousands of marchers will carry illuminated novelties in the oriental parade to be given that night. At the close of the spectacle two formal balls will open at the Biltmore and Ambassador hotels. “High Jinks,” and unusual features have been promised for the closing day, which will be featured

DOCTOR SHOOTS ARMY OFFICER OVER WOMAN Lieutenant Believed Dying as Result of Duel: Physician Held. B’i United Press ST, PAUL, Minn., May 31. Lieutenant A'alter Raymond Miller, socially prominent army officer and polo player, was in a critical condition at Ancker hospital today, suffering from bullet wounds received in a pistol fight late Thursday over a girl. Dr. William Hirst, a naturopathic physician, married and the father of two children, was held for questioning in the affair. Miss Nan Elizabeth Ferguson, over whom the two men were said to have quarreled, also was held. Dr. Hirst, who, police said, admitted the shooting, was said by Miss Ferguson to have come to her home after she had refused to see him earlier in the evening. He found Lieutenant Miller and the girl in a parked motor era - near the girls home. Miss Ferguson said that after an altercation Miller left the car and resumed the argument in the street. She said both men drew revolvers and began firing simultaneously. The girl said she knocked a revolver from Lieutenant Miller’s hand, but that Dr. Hirst kept on firing, wounding the army officer in both arms as he fled the other’s fire. Lieutenant Miller, who is 28 years old. is a native of Virginia. He has been connected with nearly all Twin City riding activities and was well known in social and sport circles.

FIND CARVED BEAR HEAD Figure Dug Up in Ozarks May Be 1.000 Years Old. B'j United Press SPRINGFIELD. Mo, May 31. Finding of a bear’s head carved from sandstone near Warsaw, Mo., has attracted attention of archaeologists. The crude yet very plain figure may be more than 1,000 years old and might have been worshipped as some sort of idol by prehistoric races which once roaded America 500 years before the landing of Columbus. The mysterious stone figure, plowed up on an Ozark farm where apparently it had been buried fgr countless years, now rests in the museum cf Drury college here. It is two feet square.
