‘MIRACLE' AGAIN DRAWS THRONG; YOUTHSTABRED Argument Is Believed to Have Caused Knifing at Chicago. By United Press CHICAGO, July 18.—Thousands of persons flocked today to a building on the southwest side where a mysterious image of a woman and child were said to have appeared faintly outlined again upon a wall, and this without an explanation. Residents of the neighborhood 6aid the image appeared again Friday night and that it was not a shadow cast from a lace curtain in the apartment of Sam Genna, a gangster. Much excitement was caused early this week when the “miracle” appeared for several nights. A group of newspaper men broke up the gathering by pulling down a shade in Genna’s window and causing the “miracle” to disappear. When the figure reappeared Friday night, more than 2,000 persons gathered. A covering was placed over the Genna window across the street, but believers in the “miracle” declared the figure still was there. Others declared the light upon the wall was not an outline. Arguments developed. During the melee that followed, Rego Ciorlieri, 17, was stabbed by an unidentified Negro who escaped. Physicians said Ciorlieri probably will die.

ROUNDING ROUND rpTJ 17 A'T'T? 13 C With WALTER 1 rlli/A 1 dKo D. HICKMAN

THE idea of the “organized audience” to guarantee cities like Chicago, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Indianapolis and the like definite dramatic offerings, is catching on all over the country. The New York Theatre Guild next season will have more subscribers than ever before. The Drama League has given Indianapolis a definite

I have been informed that the New York Theatre Guild has been approached by citizens who want that organization to come into Indianapolis. This is a fact—that if we do not have the organized audience in Ixidianapolis we are going to have mighty few attractions. Men who are familiar withMhe booking situation in New York have told me that only one show has been penciled in for Inidanapolis and that is Walter Hampden. On the other hand. Nelson Trowbridge, manager of the Shubert and Cox in Cincinnati, is able to definitely sell seats for the fall and winter right now. And we are still in a daze and inactive again. About the only hope that I can see now is the season of the Inidanapolis Civic Theatre. In speaking of organized audiences, the New York Times prints: Years of patient confidence in the legitimate theater “on the road” are about to be justified if the Theatrical Press Representatives of America carry out the plans with which their recent meetings, have been seething. If ever the time was ripe for a scheme such as they are proposing, it is now. It must be at least two years ago that their publication. The Quill, began a monthly campaign for saving the road through the press agents. Nothing much happened, though many producers, dramatic critics and actors expressed a desir" to help. Recently Equity is reported ready to give “enthusiastic cooperation.' and all that remains is to get the plan in operation. In the many cities throughout the country where the talkies have been the closest approach to real theater for some years the press agents will attempt to organize guaranteed audiences for firstclass productions. They will see the leaders of civic and other societies, members of the Chamber of Commerce, dramatic editors, drama lovers and leaders of the local litle theater. Some or these citizens, already interviewed in a number of towns, believe that a legitimate theater is a distinct asset to social and business life, even if it is in use only about half the year. Others are in a position to know what support may be expected for road shows of merit. A few little theater organizations are ready to promise several audiences a month, and their subscriptions make a good foundation on which to build. The outlook from the point of view of prospective audiences is excellent. Attractions for the road, which have been sadly lacking for many years, are also beginning to increase in a promising fashion. A list of more than sixty troupes for touring next season has been compiled by the press agents. Twenty New York producers, some with last year's successes, others with several shows In preparations are already booking on the road, and are including more than the usual “key cities.” The Theatre Guild's out-of-town subscription cities and the road towns to be visited by managers affiliated with the Guild are counted in this list, but there are at least thirty productions setting out boldly without a definite promise of patronage. An office in New York which is in touch with every stock company reports that at present a hundred companies are doing good business. in contrast with half that number last year. There is ample evidence that many people have not been able to satisfy their appetite for the theater with the talkies. In Los Angeles, the radiant center of film entertainment, there has been an amazing expansion in the legitimate theater. Small towns Invaded by “Strange Interlude” have left the talkie houses empty while the populace stood in line to see RULING HITS OFFICIALS ‘Must Work on Saturday Afternoon,’ Says Deputy Attorney-General. County officials who function in county seat towns of less than 100,000 population must do their Saturday afternoon loafing at the courthouse. That's the Hoosier law it was disclosed today by Clarence E. Edwards, deputy attorney-general. The law provides that county offices be closed on Saturday afternoon in cities of more than 100.000 population only. APPROVE UTILITY SALE State Board Rules on Cambridge Light and Power Case.

live players. Little theaters everywhere are striving to meet the increasing demand for good plays, and audiences are eager to support them. If the press agents' association succeeds In bringing these audiences and the real theater together. they will deserve the thanks of the whole country.

DRAFT GYM DRIVE FOR STATE GUARD

State-Wide Campaign Is Drawn to Enlist 'Right Type’ of Young Man. In an effort to enlist the “right type” of young men in the Indiana national guard, Adjutant-General Paul E. Tombaugh announced today that a program of supervised athletics are being drafted for the guardsmen. These activities not only will be confined, as in the past, to the fortnight spent in camp each summer, but will be carried on in the various armories throughout the entire year, he explained. “Our armories already are equipped with all sorts of gymnasium apparatus,” Tombaugh declared. “Now we expect to launch a general athletic program with something to interest any young man who wants to develop himself. ‘‘A complete program of supervised athletics is being worked out and this winter will find it in full swing in armories throughout the state.” Enlistments are being taken now for the annual encampment at Camp Knox, Ky., Aug. 2-16. First enlistment must be for three years, with privilege of re-enlistment on one-year terms.

Hidden ‘Ghost Number Trips Up Auto Thieves

Mattice Reveals Secret in Preparing to Prosecute Alleged Bandit. BY SHELDON KEY "Every car thier sooner or later meets his ‘ghost number’ which lurks some place on tvery automobile!” This was the assertion today of Floyd Mattice, chief deputy prosecutor of Marion county, as he began preparation of the state’s case against William Parham, 31, of 804 1 - South Senate avenue. Parham has admitted he has stolen 150 automoblies, using them in at least thirty-five or forty holdups in Indianapolis. Police do not identify stolen automobiles by their engine numbers as most car owners believe. Such numbers are too easily erased and changed by the wily thief versed in a little mechanics. "What all car thieves fear Is a hidden number secretly covered by paint and located on the frame or some other part of the automobile. "Only the manufacturer knows where this number is located and will give police this information upon request,” Mattice. who formerly trailed car thieves for the federal government, explained. The profesional car thief who engages in the business for profit by selling the automobiles is passing from the stage, Mattice observes. "Low prices for second-hand automobiles and the secret number system have about made the car stealing business unprofitable,” he explained. Police records disclose that it is the “joyriding” bandit who steals the automobiles nowadays. In most instances automobiles are stolen for use in holdups. Heavy penalties, as high as fifteen to tw’enty-five years, for such violation known as auto banditry, has reduced appreciably the number of youthful car thieves in Marion coun r ty the past year, police report. The deepest safe diving limit for any submarine yet constructed is 450 feet.

FARM STATES BAND TO FIGHT FREIGHT HIKES

Western Groups Are Joined in Revolt Against Rate Increases. BY H. O. THOMPSON United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON. July 18.—Western agricultural states are joining in a revolt against the proposed increases in railroad freight rates. The rebellion has spread southward from North Dakota until it seems likely to envelop the whole of the plains country west of the Mississippi. It is being organized by Ben C. Larkin, president of the board of railroad commissioners of North Dakota, and his younger associate, E. M. Hendricks, the board’s traffic expert. Kansas and Arkansas have joined the movement and Hendricks said today Minnesota was about to come into the fight. Larkin and Hendricks are attending the hearings being held by the interstate commerce commission on the railroads’ side of the case, making themselves familiar with arguments they later will attempt to refute. “We will show,” Hendricks said, “that the railroads are operated wastefully, that they engage in a lot of folderol, instead of giving the service the public wants. They don’t need more money. Anything they get by raising rates will come out of the farmer, who now has all he can do to keep body and soul together.” W. R. Cole, president of the Louisville & Nashville railroad, representing southern carriers, was a witness most of Friday before the commission. He apparently anticipated some of the agricultural complaints, for he denounced “people who stand around and say all the troubles of the farmers are due to the railroads.” ‘G, B.

BY BEN STERN NECESSITY for placing safeguards around expenditure of the Governor's emergency contingent fund will be pressed upon the next legislature, leaders of both parties are now promising. Public attention again has been directed at the manner in which this fund is being conducted by the $64,000 contract for cleaning the statehouse, which was awarded without advertising for bids. The contract bids fair to be a campaign issue in 1932 because of Governor Harry G. Leslie’s answer to critics that “I don’t need to advertise for bids for work paid out of my emergency fund. That is my money and I can spend it as I see fit.” Although it is quite true that this $200,000 annual emergency is placed in the custody of the Governor to be spent at his discretion, that does not change the fact that this money is raised by taxation, it is pointed out. tt tt tt Once before Leslie invited criticism for his expenditures from this appropriation, and that was when though receiving SIO,OOO a year for the maintenance of his mansion, he spent $20,000 emergency fund money to furnish his home. The Democrats in their 1930 plat.form promised that' proper safeguards would be placed around this fund if elected to control of the legislature. Yet when the appropriation bill came up for consideration in the house these same Democrats fought tooth and nail to keep intact all of the appropriations and funds Intrusted to the Governor. Not all of the Democrats, however. Representative Earl Crawford and several members of the Marion county delegation fought day in, day out, to reduce the emergency fund to SIOO,OOO from $200,000. But those other Democratic legislators, intent on log-rolling through their pet measures, paid little heed to the public demand. tt tt tt Probably no Governor stood In greater danger from a legislature than did Leslie when it convened last January. The Republican majority in the senate contained many members who were decidedly unfriendly while the Democratic house was said to be extremely inimical. Leslie got out of the session without even a scare from the legislators. Now comes this expenditure of $64,000. The Chamber of Commerce budget committee would have the free kindergarten and night schools abolished and teachers salaries cut to reduce the tax rate while the statehouse is being cleaned at a price which other contractors declare is at least $30,000 too high. Who was it made that crack about tax relief?
