Ruling on a motion for a change of venue in the case of Paul Pierce and Donald Joseph, charged with the first degree murder of Detective Sergeant Orville Quinnette, was deferred today by Criminal Judge Frank P Baker pending outcoma of an investigation to determine if there has been solicitation on the part of two attorneys. Appearance has been entered by Ernest E Owens and waiter A. Whetsel, attorneys, but defendants disclaim retaining them. Jess W. Peden and Edward W. McElfresh, defense counsel appointed by the court, filed a venue change motion yesterday, which the court recognized. The other attorneys filed the same kind of motion, but the court ignored it.

TEACHER WINS SUIT FOR YEAR'S SALARY Claim of Discharged State Worker Allowed. Timex Special RUSHVILLE, Dec. 27. —A year’s salary of SI6OO, claimed by Garver L. Wright, former teacher at Indiana Soldiers and Sailors Children's Home, Knightstown, must be paid by the institution under the state teachers’ tenure law, Circuit Judge John A. Titsworth has ruled. Proceedings to collect were instituted by > Mr. Wright following his dismissal from the institution, said to have been ordered for political reasons. The court held that he became eligible for tenure rights in 1931 and was not affected by modification of the act in 1933. Employed as an instructor and bandmaster, Mr. Wright contended that he lost a year’s employment when abruptly discharged. The state sought to show that the teachers’ tenure would not apply to teachers in state institutions.

DUCTOR URGES CARE BE TAKEN OF PNEUMONIA Health Official Advocates Typing Cases to Cut Mortality Rate. The first heavy pneumonia wave of the winter led Dr. Herman H. Morgan, city health board secretary, to call public attention today to 67 Indianapolis deaths from the disease this month, and urge that physicians take advantage of methods to combat it. “Pneumonia is one of the greatest health hazards to persons living in the Middle West,” said Dr. Morgan, "and Indianapolis has one of the highest proportional death rates of cities in this part of the country. In 1934 there were 527 pneumonia deaths, and 1935 bids fair to equal last year's record. “In recent years a serum has been perfected to combat the two most common types of the germ, which has been found to infect 40 per cent of afflicted persons.” he continued. “Laboratory examination enables us to type individual cases, and to prescribe a serum where possible. City- 1 wide adoption of the system of typing cases would lower the mortality i rate by at least 10 per cent. The , health department is planning a program which will offer a typing | service to physicians who can not ! afford the service of a private laboratory.” f___ FINE FOOD TABLE D'HOTE DINNER T-COURSE OR STEAK J Make Reservations NOW ] NEW YEAR'S EVE \ TICE'S STUBE CLUB 33 E.
