DEATH PENALTY SOUGHT IN GIN PARTY TRAGEDY Youths Will Claim Fall Caused Arlene Draves to Die. 1 :j limes Special VALPARAISO, tad., Feb. 20.—At least forty witnesses will take the i;:.and during trial of Virgil Kirkland, 20, Gary’, for the murder of Miss Arlene Draves, 17, on a gin party in Gary, Nov. 29, prosecution and defense attorneys said today. The trial will open Monday morning in Porter circuit court when attorneys will begin a battle to select twelve jurors from a special venire of fifty talesmen ordered to appear for duty. Kirkland Is the first of five youths accused of the crime to appear for 'rial. The others, Paul Barton, David Thompson, Leon Stanford and Harry Shirk, are held at Lake county jail In Crown Point. Each will be tried separately at later dates. Attorneys for Kirkland, who previously said their defense would attack prohibition as the cause of the tragedy, today declared they would contend Miss Draves fell and struck her head, with a fatal hemorrhage as the consequence. The state charges she died after ?he five boys attacked her, and a coroner’s jury reported death was due to shock, a cerebral and another hemorrhage. Appearing for the defense will be Dr. Orlando Scott of Northwestern university, Dr. C. W. Yarrington, Gary, and other physicians, who O. B. Thiel, a defense attroney, said will testify that there was no attack and that no act of the youths caused her death.

Among others of thirty-one witnesses the state has summoned will be members of the fateful gin party in Thompson’s home, including Mr. and Mrs. Earl Elser, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Sturtridge, Mr. and Mrs. Evan Madera, Miss Margaret Leeke, Josephine Rukas, Mrs. Thompson and Richard Elliott. Thiel said he would have few witnesses besides the medical ex-

perts, Kirkland, and the boy’s parents. Prosecutor Robert G. Estill probably will head the attorneys for the state. Judge Grant Crumpacker, who has been ill several weeks, is expected to return to the bench for the trial.

PLAN DRAFTED FOR PROTECTION OF OILINDUSTRY Compromise Measure Is Prepared by Producers and Administration, By United Press WASHINGTON, F&b. 20.—A compromise measure for protection of the oil industry has been worked out between the administration and oil producers and submitted to the house w’ays and means committee for consideration, it was learned today in a high administration quarter. The compromise is understood to be based upon a plan for prorating imports in relation to the production of oil in this country. The federal trade commission is suggested as the agency to determine the prorata basis. All oil coming in above a fixed quota to be set by the commission would cary a tariff of $1.19 a barrel, according to the plan.

It helps to activate certain digestive juices of the liver which are vital to normal digestion of food and a regular well-formed stool, with relief from heartburn, biliousness, toxic headaches, gas and indigestion. ‘‘lts blood-enriching action in cases of simple anemia —its mild diuretic action upon overloaded kidneys—its sharpening of jaded appetites—should be reflected in, brightening pale cheeks, improving circulation, promoting sound sleep and helping the patient to arise with a body richly stored with plentiful natural energy.”
