BOETCHER MAPS PLAN TO LESSEN | TRAFFIC PERILS

Proposal Calls for ond) Of City’s Death Trap on Highway 40.

; Terming it the “most important | thing we can do,” Mayor Boetcher | today outlined a general street im- | provement plan to lessen traffic hazards.

The Indiana State Highway Com- | mission has announced a plan to remove, in co-operation with city |

officials, the present underpass on

Highway 40 at the junction of the |

Rockville Road.

The plan calls for an expenditure | of about $500,000 to reroute High- |

way 40 in a half-circle north of the present junction and build a new

underpass north of the present one, |

thus removing the blind approach.

“This will eliminate a traffic haz- |

ard that has been the scene of many

fatal accidents in the past and pro- |

vide a direct route through the city on U. S. 40,” Mayor Boetcher said. The City will

The balance of the cost is to be borne by the State. Extension Delayed

The Mavor said the plan to ex- |

tend 38th St. to Cold Springs Road, | while temporarily suspended, was part of his major program to open

up the western section of the city

for development “The purpose of the 38th St. was to relieve traffic on 30th St. and to open up a new territory for development west of Cold Springs Road.” he said. “The expancion of the city has been entirely to the north and east The west section has been hampered because residents have no direct route into the downtown area. “There is absolutely no main thoroughfare in the southern end but we have something in mind. He declined to disclose plans. However, he indicated what he “had in mind” might also solve the track elevation problem on the South Side. Board Hearing Deferred i A Works Board hearing on another large improvement, the widening and resurfacing of about 10 blocks of Madison Ave. south of the city, recently was deferred until April 15. The Board also has ordered nu- | merous smaller improvements, in- | cluding straightening bad curves, | erecting reflector lights on all bridges in the city, and removing other traffic hazards. Mayor Boetcher indicated this work superceded, in his opinion, every other project, including a civic auditorium, which he recently | discarded.

FRATERNITIES ELECT OFFICERS AT DINNERS

Two fraternities—Beta Theta Pi and Phi Kappa Psi—holding state banquets here recently, elected officers, Kurt Lieber of the Williams College chapter was elected Indianapolis Beta Theta Pi Alumni Association president. Other officers named were Herman C. Emde, Pur- | due; William H. Rehm, Indiana; | George C. Berkert Jr., Hanover, and ! Robert M. Smith, Wabash. Phi Kappa Psi named Herman Gray, Indianapolis attorney, permanent state secretary; Robert Q. Bruce, president, and Thomas A. McMahon, vice president. hi Gamma Delta, also meeting here recently, awarded the Wabash | chapter the Indianapolis alumni efficiency trophy.

In Fact, Duke Was Only One of | Many Astonished by Rubens

By JOE COLLIER Since one time at the turn of the 17th Century when Peter Paul Rubens painted it there, a fresh expression of surprise has been on the face of the Duke of Mantua. If the Duke hadn’t been such an important Tuler in northern Italy,

and entitled to respect and dignity and careful phrasing, ohe might say |

that his eyes are slightly popped. The picture is hanging at the John Herron Art Museum now, loaned by the owners, Dr. and Mrs. G. H. A. Clowes, and you can 30s see for | yourself. It is one of many in an: interesting exhibit that contains several Indianapolis-owned masters

MARRIAGE MILL Speaker LAW TEST UP IN SUPREME COURT

‘Lake County nty Clerk Runes Order Restricting Wedding Permits.

An appeal seeking to test the | constitutionality of an 1852 law which was used in closing the Lake | County “marriage mill” was on file | before the Indiana Supreme Court today. | Because of an injunction issued under this law earlier this month, Lake County Clerk George W. Swei-

PROBE DEATH ~ OF PUBLISHER INHOTEL ROOM

‘Autopsy to Be Performed After C. H. Kendall's Body Is Found.

NEW YORK. Nov. 26 (U. P.).—An autopsy will be performed today to determine the cause of the death of Claude H. Kendall, 46-year-old | publisher, whose body was found in a hotel room yesterday with a bed sheet wrapped around the neck. | A chambermaid found the body on the floor. Thomas A. Gonzales, | Medical Examiner, said that Mr. Kendall had one black eye, a lacera- | tion inside of the lip and a swollen Jaw. There had been hemorrhages of the right cheek. Police learned from friends that ‘he drank heavily Wednesday night (and had to be assisted to his room. One of the friends said that he had no injuries when they left him after removing his shoes and placing him on the bed.

Inspector Michael F. McDermott, in charge of the police investigation, said that when the body was found Mr. Kendall's shoes were on. He | said it was possible that he might
