Mr. Beckett said he understood the two congregations have indicated willingness to co-operate in completing the memorial through removal of the churches.

67 near Martinsville. Elmer Blunk, 35, Martinsville, driver of the truck, was injured seriously. Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Sanders, Indianapolis, died of injuries received when their automobile skidded into a head-on collision with another car on State Road 31, near Westfield. ! Mrs. Russell Jones, 44, Connersville, suffered a fatal skull fracture when she walked into the path of an automobile. Marion County's second 1937 traffic fatality was recorded with the death of Cecil Robald, 50, of 1820 Madison Ave. apparently the victim of a hit-and-run driver.

The body was identified at City Hospital yesterday by William Robald, 950 W. 30th St., a brother. A son, VanBuren Robald, lives at the Madison Ave. address, police said. Dr. Ramsey said the man apparently had been struck by an automobile. Police found a headlight rim near the body. A watch, some money and papers in his pockets, were undisturbed.

OATH IS TAKEN AS GOVERNOR BY TOWNSEND
Former Schoolmaster Suc-,
ceeds McNutt in Colorful Ceremonies.
(Continued from Page One)
introduced Attorney General Omer Stokes Jackson of Greenfield, who was master of ceremonies. The invocation was given by the Rev. W. P. Arnold, First Methodist Church of Marion pastor, and Rabbi Morris M. Feuerlicht of the Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation gave a scriptural reading.
Dressed in a black double-breast-ed suit and black tie, the new Governor was escorted to the speaking rostrum and introduced by retiring Governor McNutt, who wore a morning coat.
Party Leaders Present
Members of both Houses, Democratic Party leaders, including U. S. Senator Sherman Minton, and civic and industrial leaders, filled the seats which were placed on the main floor hall in four directions from the rostrum. The Governor and his family were applauded as they were escorted to the inaugural stand.
Women stood on chairs to view the proceedings. On the State House second floor, overlooking the ceremonies, a few wise ones obtained stepladders and used them for boxseats. Movie cameramen and photographers lent color to the ceremonies as flashlights flared in the dusky hallway.
Stein Sounds Warning
Members of the National Guard, the Naval Reserves and City and State Police were on duty in the building. Shortly before the House reconvened in the rotunda for the inauguration, Speaker Edward H.
Stein warned Representatives not to
withdraw bills during the present session and take the measures home with them. “Abcut 40 bills are missing from the last Legislature. The bills, even though withdrawn, are the property of the State and it is a felony to keep a bill. Return withdrawn bills to the clerk of the House,” the Speaker said. A family Bible was Judge Fansler in administering the oath of office. Blasts from National Guard trumpets and a benediction by the Rev. Leo A. Pursley, Purdue University, ended the ceremonies. The new Governor's mother, Mrs. Lydia Townsend, Hartford City, and his wife, Mrs. Nora Townsend, had seats of honor with other members of the family. Following inauguration, the new Governor and members of his staff were to take over the gubernatorial offices. Former Governor McNutt is to remain in Indianapolis for several months, he said. He is to live at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. The Governor's Mansion is occupied by the new executive.
