It’s ‘Paradise’ Lost Negro Youth Will Be Missing From ‘Celestial Sphere’ for 30 Days—He’s in Jail.
THERE was no fish-fry in the “paradise” in which Wesley Shadd, 16, Negro, 521 North Senate avenue, spent most of last w r eek-end. but he told Judge Dewey Meyers in municipal court today that he had a good time. Mention of the celestial sphere came about in court today, when Wesley was arraigned on charges of petit larceny and vagrancy.
He was charged with stealing a battery valued at $5 from Sam Finkelstein, auto parts dealer of 618 North Capitol avenue, which Mr. Finkelstein charged had been sold by Shadd for 25 cents Saturday night. “Where were you Saturday night?” Judge Meyers asked Shadd. “In Paradise,” answered Shadd, gazing ceilingward. “He means the dance hall where a man was shot Saturday,” said

Detective John Welch, who had arrested Shadd. “Oh,” said the judge, much relieved. “Well, Mr. Shadd. did you see this man killed in ‘Paradise’?” Shadd denied that he had, but admitted he had heard some sort of a “commotion.” He added that he stayed in the dance hall until the wee small hours Sunday. “I regret that I must take you away from ‘Paradise’ for a time,” said Judge Meyers, “but I think Mr. Finkelstein is right. One dollar and costs and thirty days on the Indiana state farm.”
granted a request for extension to Dec. 1. “The extension is just the thing needed to make our project a success,” said William H. Trimble, chairman of the local committee. “It is positive proof that the government is anxious that we take full advantage of the offer to send $4,460,000 into our city. “The general public should not be misled into believing that it is impossible to complete the plan. Taking into consideration allowances for certain equities, which is the government’s way of helping us, we will not need more than SIOO,OOO cash, and a portion of that practically is assured to complete the $787,000 Washington requires of us.”
Robert H. Bryson, chairman of that division. MEXICO CUTS ‘TAPE,’ ENCOURAGING TOURISTS Custom Bond Slashes From S2OO to Fire Pesos. By United Press NOGALES, Ariz..
