The full program, ‘as announced by Scott B. Chambers, Newcastle, association president, follows: Registration and golf tourney in the morning of the opening day with a bingo party for women in the afternoon and a dance and floor show with awarding of golf prizes ‘at night. ¢ On Saturday, the closing day, a breakfast for Democratic women and editors’ wives is to be given. .

Minton Sought

* for Speeches

The Democratic National Committee today bid for United States Senator Sherman Minton to speak during the ensuing campaign in states other than Indiana, it was announced by James ~Senman, Democratic State Committee's speakers’ bureau head. Mr. Penman said the national committee had been notified of open dates, but that if Senator Minton, United States Senator Frederick VanNuys, or Gov. McNutt were taken from the state, it was expected that prominent Democrats from other states would take their places at Indiana meetings. Labor’s leading pro-Roosevelt adherant, John L. Lewis, United Mine Workers of America, president, may speak in Terre Haute upon his return to this country from Europe.

STATE BOARD SCANS VACANCY IN COURT

The State Election Board today had under consideration the contention of Marion County Republicans that.a successor to the late Superior Judge William A. Pickens, Indianapolis, should be elected at the general election Nov. 3. Judge Pickens ‘died last Sunday. Gov. McNutt is expected $0 name his successor. Frederick E. Schortemejer, G. O. P. county chairman, contends the McNutt appointee should serve only until a new judge is elected in November. Democratic leaders, however, claim that the appointee should serve the unexpired term of Judge Pickens which ends Dec. 31, 1938.

ERRY whistled a gay tune as he sent his small car over the highway toward home. After two years, he had saved enough money to take the course in agriculture at the State University without. worrying about his mother and small brother at home on the farm. He had saved enough to provide for them as well.

He laughed softly as he thought of the expression on his mother’s face when this morning, he had brought home $100 which he had withdrawn from the bank to take with him when he left for the uni-. versity tomorrow. She had promptly hid the money in a baking soda can on her pantry shelf, against his laughing protest that it would surely be safe for only one day.

As he slowed the car to make the turn into the dirt road that led to their little farm, a hitch-hiker stepped from the side of the road and hailed him, Terry stopped. “Sorry, buddy,” he said cheerfully. “I'm turning here.”

HE man walked up to the car and rested a hand on the newly polished hood. Terry, who had just polished it that morning, was slightly annoyed, but said nothing. After all, it wouldn't take a second to shine it up again. “Oh, so you're turning?” said the man. “How far is it to Claremont?” “Ten miles,” Terry answered. “You take the right fork of the highway about six miles from here.” The man opened: the door and climbed in. “Okay,” he said, “we’ll

“But I'm not going—" Terry broke off suddenly as he saw the revolver in the man’s hand. He stared at it for a minute. : “Let's be going,” the man said, softly. : ® 8&8 8 Dl ERRY put.the car in gear ‘and started it rolling along the highway. Through his mind raced

in the movies in which the hero drove the car at a reckless speed and kept the bandit from shooting for fear of his own life. But this wasn’t ‘the movies. That gun was pointed at him and it might go off. Then the man removed all thought of a daring escape from his

mind. “ rube,” he said grimly. “I'll bet I can plug you and grab that wheel before you can put us in the ditch. Want to try it?” Terry said he did not. The man watched him closely for a& minute and then, apparently satisfied, reached into his pocket with his free hand, still keeping the gun trained on Terry. He pulled a roll of bills out of the pocket and started counting them into his lap. “One hundred bucks,” he said under his breath, ” » TERRys Henin sank. ‘The man had come from the direction of his farmhouse. A moment later, his suspicions were confirmed. “You hicks oughta learn to trust the banks,” he said, stuffing the bills into his pocket. “Imagine keeping 100 bucks in a tin can! She don’t deserve to have the dough.” Terry’s mouth tightened with a sudden spasm of fear. If this fellow had harmed his mother or brother! Unwittingly, the man answered his question for him. “Look here, buddy. I ain't hurt nobody getting this dough, and I don’t want to hurt you now. But get this—I'm not taking any chances with you, either. Now, I'm going to have a look at this gun, and if

a sense of hopelessness. He dared [yo not take his hands from the wheel,

He watched out of the corner of his eye as his captor ran a finger over the brass caps in the chamber. “Want to hear something funny?” the man said. Terry ,looked at the road and said nothing. “I didn’t know that this gun was loaded till just this minute” the man continued. “Picked it up back there where I got the dough. * He chuckled. Terry glanced down .at the gun. So it was his own! He hadn't reeognized it before. As he turned his attention back to the road, the smudge the man’s hand had left on the gleaming hood caught his eye.

ALP an hour later, after seeing the thief in a cell, Terry told his story to the sheriff at Claremont. The sheriff listened in silence and, when Terry had finished, shook his head gravely. “A fine piece of work,” he said, “but it wasn’t worth the chance you took.” “There was no chance, sheriff,” Terry assured him. “My only worry was getting him out in the open where I could get a good sock at his jaw.” He smiled. “You see, we've always kept that gun loaded only with blank cartridges in case my little brother ever got hold of it.” THE END,
