THREE CHILDREN KILLED UNDER AUTOS' WHEELS Deaths Within 36 Hours Send Year’s Total to 33; Mayor Asks Caution. Traffic's grinding wheel* have •fait death to tfiree Indianapolis hildren and critical injuries to a ourth within the last thirty-six .lour*. When a heavy truck passed over he body of Florence Adeff. 5, of her home late Thurs- ) day afternoon. Marion . county’s accident toll was raised to thirtythree for the year. Five of these were children. Pleas for greater vigilance on the part of motorists were sounded by Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan and Chief Mike Morrissey. The Adeff girl, daughter of David and Bertha AdefT. was killed almost instantly as she ran across the street near her home shortly after dark, while on an errand for her parents. She stepped into the path of a truck being driven by Robert Barnett, 49, Negro, of 1841 Miller street, whom police charged with involunlary manslaughter. Two Boys Run Down First victim or traffic during the t hirty-six hours was James Myers, 6, of 3319 East Washington street, who was struck by a skidding truck early Thursday morning while standing at the intersection of Washington and Dearborn street. He died within a few moments. John Wurfel, 9, of 1431 Southeast- , rrn avenue, was the second victim. He died Thursday after being struck by an auto Wednesday while running ncross East Washington street in the 1400 block, less than a mile from the scene of young Myers' death. Funeral services for John Wurfel will be held at 9 Saturday morning in St. Anthony’s church in Jeffersonville, with burial there. Survivors are his mother, a widow; a bi other, Edward, 13, and an aunt, Mrs. Vernon Donnelly, all of Indianapolis, and formerly of Jeffersonville. Adcff Rites Today Last rites for the Adeff girl were to be held at the home today. Survivors are the parents and two sisters, Sylvia and Evelyn Adeff. Arrangements for the funeral of the Myers boy, a pupil at school No. 3. have not been made. He is survived by the parents and a brother, Bobby. R F. O’Hara. 2107 East Michigan street, driver of the truck th2t struck James Myers, was arraigned today before Municipal Judge William H. Sheaffer on a charge of involuntary manslaughter. Ruling was deferred until May 19. Critical injuries were suffered by Andrew Kaylor Jr., 10, of R. R. 2, Box 607-H, when he was struck by an auto driven by George Schuh, 40, of R. R. 2, Box 594, while crossing Rockville road in the 5000 block Thursday afternoon while leaving Wayne township school No. 8. Lad Carried 100 Feet The. lad was carried more than one hundred feet after being struck. He incurred a skull fracture, fracture of one leg and probable internal injuries. At St. Vincent’s hospital it was said he is in a critical condition. Schuh was not arrested. In his plea to drivers for greater caution, Sullivan said: “It is regrettable that the lives of these children have been taken. The police, school and safety organizations are working relentlessly to teach carefulness and safety and reduce the number of accidents." “Parents should not send small children on errands unless they are accompanied by older children," Morrissey warned. "School patrols function only during and shortly after school hours, and we can not, give protection at other times. We heed the co-operation of parents to keep children from leaving too early for school.” Other school children killed in accidents since the first of the year are Edward Neidenthal, 13, of R. R. 4. Box 624; Louis Latta, 14. of 1515 Saulcy street, and Emma Kennerly, Negro, 14, of 244 Puryear street. SKIN CONVICTS BURGLAR Fragment Left on Window Ledge ‘Fits’ Scar on Suspect's Hand.

CHARLIE DAVIS TO . OPEN IN BALLROOM Former Master of Ceremonies to Bring Entertainers with Him for Indiana Roof Engagement. WHEN Charlie Davis and his orchestra open a limited engagement in the Indiana Roof ballroom tonight, the former Indiana theater : master of ceremonies will formally return to the musical avenue along : which he first met success here in Indianapolis. This does not mean, however, according to Davis, that he has given up the theater entirely. He plans to follow in the footsteps of several nationally famous dance orchestra leaders, including Ben Bernie, Paul Whiteman, Guy Lombardo, Coon Sanders, and Wayne King, who leave their dance engagements several times each year to make theater appearances. In the meantime he will make use .

of his entertaining ability to satisfy dancing audiences who now demand entertainment along with dance music. With few exceptions, the dance orchestra which Davis brings to the Roof ballroom is composed of men who appeared on the Indiana stage, and later toured the east with him. Tonight's dance program will include “My Apache Man” and “I Found a Rainbow,” two of Charlie's newest composition, as well as a group of three new fox trots and a waltz, which are to be introduced by special permission of their copyright owners. Appearing with Davis and his dance orchestra will be Mary Balsley, a blues singer, and the Four Riff Brother*, rhythm boy* and dancers. man Indianapolis theaters today offer: Kay Francis in “Man Wanted” at the Apollo, “The Miracle Man”

In face of a reduction in the prohibition inforcement budget, dry administrators in New York and Chicago are driving their agents to a renewed offensive on speakeasies. In Chicago. Prohibition Director Malachi L. Harney, shown here, directed a drive on 100 “joints” in the last two weeks, using agents recruited from other cities. The inforcement campaign comes at a time when the depression has hit the beer and liquor market with a cut in retail prices and the return of the free lunch spread. In New York, Administrator Andrew McCampbell has ordered each agent to “come through" with a raid a day.
