Indiana An ?I - Saloon League .superintendent. The report disclosed that the srand jury had summoned Mr. York to produce proof of charges made by him that certain public officials are receiving profits from the liquor business. After rradmg the report. Judge Baker declared he had no previous knowledge that the jury had summoned Mr. York. The grand jury charged that Mr, York admitted he had no proof of his statements which, he is quoted as saving. were based on hearsay. In a sharp retort, Mr. York dei.ared there is something wrong with enforcement of the liquor laws in this county and state. "I do not know any of the members of the grand jury.” he said, “but I believe they must know’ that the law is being violated openly in this county. I do know Mr. Hagemier <Oscar Hagemier. grand jury deputy prosecutor>, and I know that he knows it.” 'lt is no secret that every booze joint operating in the state outside of an incorporated city or town is doing so in violation of the law and that beer saloons throughout the city are violating the law.” SUNDAY SCHOOL GROUP WILL HONOR TEACHERS Marion County Association to Meet Monday.

The Theatrical World Baseball Comes to Films in ‘Death on Diamond’ Bl W ALTER D. HICKMAN

'T'HE theater and mplodrama of real baseball has been caught with some realism in “Death on the Diamond.” I am one of those fellows whose knowledge of baseball wouldn't fill a thimble. Eddie Ash should be called in for this one. I never have seen as much baseball of the big league type crowded into one movie as in “Death on the Diamond.” The name

!■' | "w-- i a\Ja

should have been "Murders on the Diamond.” Virtue and a good throwing arm are represented in Larry i Robert Young* and his love for Frances • Madge Evans), the secretary of Pop Clark, skipper of the St. Louis Cardinals. David Landu is Pop.” and that is almost sufficient to bring

Madge Evans

in the verdict that this role is humanly played and not overacted at any time, although the playwright makes poor Pop and his men suffer and suffer. There are five different and important baseball games played in this movie. If the men in an audience ever have the right to claim that the movie they's watching is a lie-man’ picture, this one is it. It will spoil your fun to tell you j the story, but.l will let you in on a secret—the villains employ gunmen to get as many of the leaders of the team which had a chance to win the pennant. Os course it is theater, but it is darned good theater. As to the cast—no one actually overshadows the other. The performance I will remember is that of Ted Healy as OToole, an umpire. His vision is bad and he uses an eyewash to clear the diamond <maybe the pupil* of his eye. It is overdrawn comedy, but still good entertainment. Madge Evans is colorless at times, but she has her romantic innings with Robert Young, who seems to be better on the diamond than with his arms around Madge. Eddie Ash probably will disagree. In fact I know he will. There are lot of "audience” shots in the games and the villains do the most theatrical things. This is a picture that is different. It is strong enough to stand on its own legs because of being different only. (For the entire family*. It opens tomorrow at Loew s Palace.

Although the bombs were scattered about the wrecked craft in which Theodore Taney. 38, plunged to his death, there was no evidence that any had exploded.
