NEGROES AIDED IN ATTACK CASE BY WHITE GIRLS Eastern Students Strive to Enlist Senators in Defense of Youth. 8/1 t nitrd PrrMt WASHINGTON. April I—Four #hite girls, students of northern universities, today endeavored to '’nllst senators in the defense of seven Negro boys, sentenced to death for an alleged assault on two white girls in Alabama last year. Nine Negro boys, all under 13, •vere convicted of the attack but two of them, under 14, escaped the death penalty. The assault was alleged to have happened on a freight train on which the two girls were hoboing” through Alabama. “We believe there is prejudice against them because they are colored and because it is an attack case,” said Miss Riva Stocker, a Vassar student of New York City, who is leader of the group. Later the girls said that they had lot read the evidence in the case, but believed the boys innocent from what they had seen in newspapers. Others in the group are Florence Smith, Wellesley student from Montreal, Canada; Evelyn Rosenthal, Vassar student from New York, and Dorothy Lippincott, Vassar student irom Plainfield, N. J. Another member of the party, Julia Heiman, Smith student, left before the protest was made. The delegation first visited Senator Black (Dem., Ala.), who told them he felt the boys were guilty of "fiendish infamy." They then saw Senator Copeland 'Dem., N. Y.>, who was. photographed with them, but did not join their ranks. “I am very much afraid every state must settle its own troubles,” he explained.

Self-Operating Surgeon Dead of Pneumonia

mm.

Dr. E. O. Kane

KANE, Pa., April I.—Dr. Evan O’Neill Kane, 71, chief of the staff of Summit hospital, who j achieved nation-wide fame by two self-operations, died here today j from pneumonia. Dr. Kane operated upon himseil eleven years ago for appendicitis. Last Jan. 7 he performed a second self-operation for hernia. In each case he recovered in less time i than the normal period of coni valescence. Dr. Kane was stricken with pneumonia four days ago. His condition became critical Thursday and an oxygen tent was used in the afternoon in an effort to save his life. He was believed the. first physician ever to remove his own appendix. He used only a local ; anesthetic. The second operation was performed to correct an injury suffered several years ago while riding horseback. _ Return Auto Theft Suspects Three men arrested at Michigan City Thursday while in possession of an automobile alleged to have been stolen here Wednesday night were returned today by detectives. Those held are: Richard Sellers, 21. i of 1110 West Thirty-second street: Harry Taylor, 22, Brownsburg, and Bishop Bradshaw, 42, of 1711 Massachusetts avenue. The car was the property of W. R. Kirby.

most heroic animals in this state, The Times, in co-operation with the Latham Foundation, will award gold, silver, and bronze medals to them as a tribute of the people of this state to their heroism and selfsacrifice. Man ever has been on the alert | to reward the bravery of his fellow beings. Their acts are perpetuated in paint, marble, and print. Their achievements in science, literature, and other fields of endeavor are emblazoned in shrines throughout the world. But this is not so with the animal heroes of the world. Dogs and horses have helped, especially, to' fight men's wars; they have faced gunfire without flinching, and they have turned the tide of battle many times by their cunning and courage; they have been wounded and died without complaint. Thousands of persons actually owe their lives to the dog—devoted friend whose loyalty, daring spirit, humble trust, and lasting love can not be matched by that higher animal known as the human being. This newspaper will conduct a survey, therefore, for the three most heroic animals of this state, and the public is asked to submit to the , Animal Editor of The Times all instances of animal heroism wlvch have occurred in Indiana during the last year. Organizations such as humane societies, Boy Scouts, Camp Fire Girls, Girl Scouts and similar groups, as well as individuals, are asked to cooperate in this state-wide movement. Send in your nominations immediately, together with a picture of your animal hero.
