HAWKINS , Times Bidio Editor A further addition to the radio department of The Indianapolis Times maintained for its readers, was made this week in securing the services of the Radiocraft Laboratories, 3818 North Illinois street, G.

The Times now is able to offer to its readers the most complete radio service obtainable from any newspaper in the country. If a reader of The Times has trouble from outside interference the source will be located and reported to the responsible parties. If the trouble turns out to be in the listener’s set The Times will have a capable radio man inspect the set and tell the owner just what is for repairs, provided the listener wants such an appraisal. No charge for any of the services mentioned will be made. The neighborhood in the vicinity of Twenty-fifth street and Ashland avenue and Bellefontaine street was rechecked this week and found to be in excellent condition for radio reception, the Indianapolis Power and Light Company having repaired a bad lightning arrester on a transformer set-up. Radio listeners are requested to notify The Timfs Radio Editor of any interference in their neighborhood. Letters with as many signatures as possible are preferred, but telephone requests may be made any day except Sunday by calling Riley 5551, between 4 and 5 p. m., and asking for the Radio Editor.

FAVOR OPPOSITE SEX Bii United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 25.—Men teachers and women teachers came out even in a survey conducted by the Englewood high school student paper here to determine which were more popular with students. The only preference that could be determined showed that the boys prefer women and that girls would rather be taught by men. Points listed by the boys, favoring the feminine instructors, were that they were more sympathetic and understood the students better and put more enjoyment into the classwork. The men were credited with being fairer as instructors and with teaching more from experience.

HOOVER WARNS POLITICIANS TO PIGKjYMERIT President Tells Party He Will Not Yield in Patronage Fight. ! Du Scripps-ffoicard Xewapaper Alliance | WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.—1n his sharpest clash over patronage since he took office, President Hoover has served notice on G. O. P. politicians ! that “the success of the Republican I party rests upon good government, 1 not on patronage.” | He also' warned the wets in his ' party that he Intends to appoint ' none but tried-and-true believers in ! the dry laws when it comes to naming judges, district attorneys and other prosecuting officials. Though the letter in which the | President expounded his ideas was : addressed to a Florida politician, j who had protested against Hoover’s disregard of the organization’s recommendations for filling the district attorneyship in the southern Florida district, it was aimed at every professional politician and party leader in the United States. Conflict Is Involved The letter dealt with the conflict over southern organization between ; the forces of Horace Mann, free lance politician, and the White House triumvirate of Postmaster Brown, Secretary Newton and National Chairman Huston. Southern Hoovercrats protested recently against the program sponsored by the triumvirate, charging that it was permitting the old “commercialized” interests to gain control of the southern G. O. P. In his letter, which was sent to Fred Britten, secretary of the Florida G. O. P. organization, the President made clear he did not intend to take sides in the fight, but demanded that the organization submit the names of men he considered capable for public service. “It is the natural desire of the administration,” wrote the President, “to build up and strengthen the Republican party in Florida. That can be done in co-operation with I the state organization if the organii zation presents candidates who measure up to my requirements of public service. Can Not Flout Laws “This is an obligation in the interests of the people of the state, and a first tenet in that program is that no longer shall the laws of the United States be flouted by federal officials; no longer shall public office be regarded as mere political patronage, but that It shall be public service. “I note your demands that the organization shall dictate appointments, irrespective of merit or my responsibility, and that you appeal to opponents of the administration to attack me. I enclose herewith copy of statement which I issued last March. That statement was no idle gesture.” The President referred to his declaration that southern G. O. P. organizations must reform themselves if they expected him to recognize them.

SABER-TOOTHED TIGER HAS ITS FACE ‘LIFTED’ Prehistoric Bones Show Animal Had Lost One Weapon. Bu Science Service LOS ANGELES, Oct. 25.—The rare case of a big saber-tooth tiger, which lost one of its long, sharp sabers while it still was a kitten, has been discovered among the fossil bones of prehistoric animals taken from asphalt pits near here. The kitten, which lost one of its most important permanent teeth, went about for the rest of its life with a strange one-sided expression. The socket soon filled in and the dry skull, which tells the story of the tiger’s calamity, has a peculiar, snarling look where one side of the face was “lifted.” These big tigers of the prehistoric forest, which literally were armed to the teeth, were blood suckers, depending on their sabers to pierce the hide of an animal chosen for dinner. Loss of both sabers would have forced a tiger to change its food habits completely, but this was apparently an almost unknown accident. Out of 1,000 saber-tooth tiger skulls only three show loss of one saber. *None had lost both. METEOR SHOyVER DUE Observer Says Last Year’s Display Will Appear Again. Bn United Press MADISON, Wis., Oct. 25.—A shower of meteors, similar to that of last Nov. 14, is due about the middle of November of this year, according to announcements by Professor C. M.
