DEATH CLAIMS VESTAL AFTER SHORT ILLNESS Congressman for 8 Terms Succumbs at Hospital in Capital. (Continued From Pape I) strain of the eight campaigns in which he participated. The 1930 contest was strenuous, Representative Vestal being declared the winner by only nine votes. His seat was contested, but the affair was dropped by the congressional committee as no charges of personal fraud could be brought. Like many other figures in public life Representatives Vestal had to wage a bitter fight for his education. He was born on a farm in Madison county, Jan. 18, 1875. and educated in the country schools. He later worked in factories and in a steel mill to obtain funds with which to continue his education. And then taught school. At 21, he graduated from the law school of Valparaiso university and was admitted to the bar the same year. Elected Prosecutor In 1900 Mr. Vestal was elected prosecutor of the Fiftieth judicial circuit and w-as re-elected in 1902 and 1904. He then continued in the. practice of law in Anderson. He was nominated in the Rcpub- , lican primary of 1916 and elected i to congress from the old Eighth district. His services as one of the Republican leaders gave him promi- j nence and - the district re-elected him every two years. Faced Fight in 193 fl His hardest battle was in 1930 yet, despite the Democratic landslide, Representative Vestal again was declared the winner. The 1931 congressional reapportionment put Madison and Hancock counties in the same district with east Marion county and Mr. Vestal i f°lt that with the loss of the old i contacts the bitter campaign sure I to ensue would be too great a tax upon his strength. He is survived by the widow and two children, Ralph and Vivian Vestal. They were at the bedside w'hen he died at 10:55 a. m. Procedure Doubtful A complicated legal question has arisen over selection of a successor for Representative Albert Vestal of Anderson, who died today in Washington. The statutes provide the Governor set a date for a special election in the district to select the successor, candidates to be chosen by the Republican and Democratic district organization. Representative Vestal was elected from the old Eighth district, composed of Adams, Delaware, Jay, Madison, Randolph and Wells coun- i ties. But the congressional reapportionment statute passed bv the 1931 legislature placed Representative Vestal in the new Eleventh district composed of Madison, Hancock and the east half of Marion county. The question is whether the successor must be elected from the old district which, under the law, was abolished or from the new district now represented by Dr. W. H. Larrabee of New Palestine, Democrat. The question must be decided by state election commissioners. RITE INITIATES FETED I Thirty-Nine Members of New Class Guests at Cathedral Banquet.

APRIL FOOLS’ DAY IS HELD IN COURT

Fisticuffs Theratened as Nitu Divorce Trial Drags On. It. was April Fools' day in superior court two today. Judge Joseph R. Williams was fooled as to the length of time to try a divorce suit. Ira Holmes, attorney, jvas fooled on the capability of interpreters. Reporters were fooled into believing that Holmes might renew his wide acquaintanceship with Mister Fisticuffs. It started in the contested divorce case of Pete Nitu, 220 North Illinois street, Greek restaurant owner, seeking freedom from his wife, Konstantina. Konstantina talked a mixture of Bulgarian, Serbian and Macedonian. One interpreter got the answer “I no understand.” Holmes called in anew interpreter. On cross-examination, Holmes’ ire flared pugilistically when he accused John J, Rochford, the husband’s attorney, of trying to force the wife to testify to things “she doesn’t mean" in her polyglot tongue. "Stop the tomfoolery." ordered Williams as the attorneys neared

GIRLS RECOUNT COURTSHIPS BY 'KINDLY’JIECTOR Waitress’ Mother Shouts Charge at Cleric in Immorality Trial. BY HERBERT MOORE United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON, April I.—A commotion was caused at, the trial of the Rev. Harold F. Davidson, rector of Stiffkey. Norfolk, on charges of immorality today when the mother of one of the waitresses with whom he was friendly interrupted the proceedings to shout denunciations at the clergyman. Miss Dorothy Burn, 21, waitress, was on the witness stand being cross-examined by R. F. Levy, counsel for the rector. He asked her if it were true she now had a better position, being a manageress. The mother, seated in the rear of the hall, shouted: “She did not get the job through him or his help either. She had to leave there because he made her ill.” Miss Burn, tall, slim, in a blue hat and fur neckpiece, detailed her acquaintanceship with the rector. He always dressed as a clergyman, she said, and visited the restaurant regularly. • Three years ago, she testified, he pestered and embarrassed her, asking her to spend the week-end at his house in the country. “He said I was too lovely to be working there,” she testified. “He showed me photographs of actress friends and said he used to forgive them their sins.” Mr. Davidson arrived at the rear
