CLUBS JOIN IN PLEA FOR ACTION ON WOODSTOCK North Side Federation in New Demand for Annuling Lease. Demand on the city park board for action on requested cancellation of lease on city property held by the Woodstock Country Club was made in two letters from officials of the North Side Federation of Civic Clubs to the park board. The board directed Nathan H. Swaim, board attorney, to prepare an opinion on the matter in reply to a brief filed with the board several months ago by the federation. The federation seeks to force the board to cancel the Woodstock club's lease on fifty acres of city land, the lease expiring in 1940. The property was under lease to the club when It was purchased by the city in 1915. The land was purchased with a $50,000 bond issue, the club paying $6,000 rent a year to cover interest on the bonds. In 1920 the lease, expiring in 1925, was extended until 1930, and In 1922, after the club house built by the city burned, the lease was extended until 1940, the club rebuilding the bouse. The federation holds the city is without power legally to lease to a private concern property purchased for park purposes. MORETdYNAMITE FOUND By United Pres FRANKFORT. Ind., April 17.

INDIAN SMILES AS HE PAYS HIS LIFEJN CHAIR Executed in Oklahoma ‘Pen’ for Attack on School Teacher. By United Prcs M’ALESTER, Okla., S. (Choc) Hembree, 42, Choctaw Indian, smiled as he walked steadily to the electric chair today, and was executed for criminally assaulting a young school teacher. The bravery which led him to joke with thirteen cellmates in the death house at the state penitentiary never deserted him. He had a smile for each man as he said goodby. Still smiling, he complained apologetically while seated in the chair that a strap was hurting his arm. He was pronounced dead a few minutes later. Hembree was converted Thursday by the Rev. A. L. James, prison chaplain, and thirty minutes before he died, he and the chaplain began singing hymns. They continued until guards came to take the prisoner to the chair. Hembree was convicted of attacking Miss Leota Bosley, 23, near Loco, Okla., on March 9, 1930.

Kent, in his argument, made sweeping charges of bad faith and even of criminal practices on the part of the state's officers. He laid the prosecution of Livecchi, Pizzino and Bommarito to the political necessities of Governor Wilber M. Brucker, AttorneyGeneral Paul W. Voorhies and Judge James E. Chenot, the three officials who started the Buckley investigation. Brucker at that time was at-torney-general, Voorhies was his assistant and Chenot was prosecuting attorney.
