This failing, sterner measures are contemplated. Bishop Ritter also sent letters to managers of every motion picture theater in the diocese, explaining that the campaign is not against them personally nor against their theaters.

ILLINOIS MAN IS KILLED IN AUTO ACCIDENT HERE County Toll Reaches 53; Many Others Injured in Crashes. An early morning drinking party here today resulted in death for one man, injuries for another man and a woman and the arrest of the latter two on in-

toxication charges. The dead man is David Estridge, 23, of Urbana, 111., killed when a truck in which he was riding with Thomas

53

Dinwiddie, 34, of 1728 South Belmont avenue, and Dinwiddie’s wife, Mrs. Mildred Dinwiddie, 25, was wrecked in hitting a telephone pole on Road 67, a mile south of Maywood. Mr. and Mrs. Dinwiddie are at city hospital, from which Dinwiddie attempted to escape in a sensational twenty-foot plunge through an unguarded window two hours after his arrest near the scene of the accident by deputy sheriffs and police. Dinwiddie, worse hurt in his plunge from the window than he had been in the wreck, attempted to crawl into the hospital basement through a tunnel, but was caught by patrolman Harry Nelis. The patrolman had left Dinwiddie’s room only a moment before the jump when Mrs. Dinwiddie began to fight with doctors and nurses in what apparently was another attempt to escape. Police say the trio had been at the Eagle tavern on Road 67. Apparently the Dinwiddies had met Mr. Estridge there since his car was found parked, uninjured, a half mile from the scene of the accident, police added. Deputies say they were forced to chase Dinwiddie 100 yards into a nearby field before he would surrender. The truck he was driving was the property of the Indiana Scale Company, 139 West Sixteenth street. A charge of reckless driving was placed against him at the coroner’s request after the intoxication charge had been entered. The Dinwiddies’ injuries are not serious. Mr. Estridge who was visiting a cousin, Elmer Estridge, 2824 Ruckle street, was the fifty-third traffic fatality of the year here. David Estridge had been employed as a butcher in a Standard grocery here, according to his cousin. He was described as seldom drinking and the cousin expressed the belief his car stalled and he had obtained a “lift” from the Dinwiddies. The body has been taken to the Kirby funeral parlors. Burial will be in Annville, Ky., where he was born. Surviving are his father, Fred Estridge, Urbana, and a brother, Kelis Estridge, Annville. Twelve other persons were injured, one seriously in traffic accidents over the week-end. The seriously injured man is Holman Hill, 65, Eastgate hotel, hurt when his sedan crashed into a safety zone guard at Pine and Washington streets last night. He is in city hospital with a fractured skull and other injuries. Motorcycle Patrolman Harold Morton, 34, of 120 East North street, was hurt yesterday afternoon when, according to police reports, his cycle was struck at a downtown intersection by an automobile driven by Max Klezmer, 45, of 2922 Ruckle street. Mr. Klezmer was arrested on reckless driving charges. PRESS CENSOR FEARED Minnesota Senator Again Attacks Communications Bill. By United Press WASHINGTON, June 11.—Senator Thomas D.

CRIPPLE AND 2 ! OTHERS HELD IN COUNTERFEITING Trio Is Alleged to Have Flooded City With Bogus Coins. A crippled man who is alleged to have spent his spare time inventing ingenious methods to “age” counterfeit coins and his uncle were arrested yesterday, stemming a flow of bogus half dollars which have flooded Indianapolis, police said. The arrested were Edgar Van Cleave, 53, and Walter De Long, 29, both of 817 Highland avenue. The ability of R. W. Griffith, 719 Massachusetts avenue, to remember faces resulted in a raid by police and federal agents upon the Highland avenue address. Mr. Griffith saw a man pass his home yesterday whom he says passed a bogus half-dollar in a shop in which Mr. Griffith had been making a purchase some time ago. Mr. Griffith followed the man to the Highland avenue address and then called police. De Long, whose legs were cut off when he fell beneath a train in Terre Haute in 1925, admitted manufacturing the fake coins, police claim. Van Cleave is alleged to have admitted passing them. Molds, metals and fluids for manufacturing the coins were seized in the raid. De Long is alleged to have explained to police that because he was unable to find work he spent his time perfecting a method of manufacturing coins. The method employed to give the coin the appearance of wear and: age De Long himself invented. He refused to divulge its secret. The coins were described as being of fine workmanship by Charles Mazey, secret service agent. Kenneth Van Cleave, 29, also of the Highland avenue address, s,irrended at police headquarters today. He is the third man involved in the counterfeit activities, police allege. Police records show that Edgar Van Cleave was arrested on a murder charge in 1899, but a grand jury failed to indict him, holding the act was one of self-defense. Van Cleave is alleged to have hurled a chisel at a fellow worker in a furniture factory.
