WINE MAKERS SCORE HEAVY INDIANA LEVY Hoosiers Far Down List in Consumption: California Blames Taxes. .‘.tnrr.g the people unhappy over Indian" 1 liquor la l *’ situation are the grape growers and wine xnaic—rr of California, it appeared today w."h the publication of a survey by the Wine Institute. Thr survey singled out Indiana to remark that per capita consumption of dorr.' tic wines in the state was only .01 per cent of a gallon last year, which amount could not properly be described as healthy swig. The survey characterizes the regulations and the 50-cent a gallon tax on domestic wtnm as "extremejv restrictive* 'and points out that, in California where the tax is but 2 cents a cation, consumption per capita was 2 34 gallons. Pennsylvania, however, with a 75cent a gallon tax. the highest quoted was shown to have consumed, per capita. .05 gallons, which is better than Indiana at a quarter more expense. All this means, the survey said, that Indiana and other states with restrictive taxes, are not collecting nearly as much income on wine as they should. California. which was exceptionally fond of wine, and which had | |i 77 231 pi pie in it in 1930. collected $232,000 in wine taxes last year, whereas Indiana, with a population of 3.238 503. collected only $25 000.

The Lyric orchestra, usually consisting of 10 men under the direction of Ed Resener, has been augmented by five extras for the Marcus show, and the regular stage crew of the Lyric has been doubled and will worth the master carpenter and chief electrician of the unit.

MYSTERY NOTES LEAD CO-ED TO SHOOT STUDENT Farm Girl Wounds Chinese Youth: Victim Denies Extortion Plot. By United Preen TAHLEQUAH, Okla., March 29. The extortion mystery which impelled an overwrought girl student of Northwestern State Teachers’ College to shoot a classmate remained a mystery today. George Hing Siew, who came to the United States four years ago from Hong Kong, denied from his hospital bed that he wrote the .notes which for days had plagued Lois Thompson, 19-year-old farm girl. Miss Thompson sat white faced and silent in jail, refusing to discuss the campus attack which threw the school and community into an uproar yesterday. Upset by a note received Wednesday, Miss Thompson called Siew, registered at the college as Daniel Shaw, from a classroom and pointed a gun at him. The youth fled and as he ran Miss Thompson fired three times, screaming: "I know he’s one of them and I’m going to kill him." She stood over Siew and wept when one of the bullets pierced his chest. Officers believed she "got the wrong man.” Postal inspectors studied Siew’s handwriting along with other specimens in an effort to learn who sent the notes, the latest of which said: ‘You are going to be killed today. You can have the whole United States police department with you, but we will kill you if we knew the next minute we would die.” It was signed "N. E. S. T. C. Gang.” The signature obviously was made up from the initials of the college name. The extortionists demanded S3OOO. Miss Thompson’s family is not wealthy. Siew, who is expected to recover from his wounds, is of mixed Chinese, Indian and white blood. He said he did not know Miss Thompson and officers said they had no evidence to link the youth with the notes.

by Miss Frances Beik, had the usual slip-ups and rough edges which accompany almost all amateur productions, but nevertheless it was high above most of the things that Thespis has done. This reviewer can recall when it would have been unheard of to smoke a cigaret on a Thespis set, and when it would be unthinkably out of the question to have such a word as “guts” in a Thespis line, but both things were very admirably present in last night’s play. The story is a nicely united tale of three generations of every-day folk, three Marys, who all fall in love for different reasons, and afterward either regret it or suffer and bear it. The story leaves one up in the air. but it does make one think. In the cast Miss Mary Paxton Young, though a bit too energetically nervous on the stage, played splendidly the part of the third Mary; Miss Florence Gipe was grand as Mary the First, and Bill Fear was outstanding as Bobbie, the baby of the family. Louis Stauber, who played the main role, deserves double credit for his work as stage manager, and Virginia Ferrell was sufficiently sweet and unpersuasive as the second Mary. The play will be repeated tonight at the Civic Theater.—(Bv J. W. TANARUS.) • n tt tt In the Theaters • Loew’s Palace—Paul Lukas and Ted Healy in “The Casino Murder Case.” Short reels.
