nois St., caused Paul Crim, of 2345 Kenwood Ave. to call police. They found marks of a jimmy in the door frame. The men fled before police arrived. Hearing a window being raised in the living quarters above his store at 1602 Ringgold Ave., John Hansen, a grocer, ran upstairs in time to hear the sound of retreating footsteps. He found the side window pried open. Nothing had been stolen, he reported. Police today sought a clever thief who used a long pole to fish the purse of Mrs. Margaret Bruce through the open bedroom window of her home at 1507 College Ave. The purse, minus $4.65 and cosmetics, later was discovered in the rear of the home.

Stolen Cab Chased

A robber eluded sheriff's deputies in a chase through the southeast section of the city shortly after he had held up Arthur Clements, a cab driver, of 930 Roache St. and taken $2.60 and his cab. Squad cars summoned to the scene of the robbery at Shelby and Sumner Sts, sighted the cab headed south. They were unable to overtake the cab which later was found abandoned at Southern Ave. and S. Meridian St.

HARDWARE DEALERS TO ELECT TOMORROW

Kelly Predicted as New|

Association Head.

New Indiana Retail Hardware Association officers are to be named tomorrow during closing sessions of a three-day convention at Murat Temple. Robert H. Kelly, Winamac, is to be elected president, Association leaders predicted today. Karl L. Fenger, New Albany, is retiring president. Delegates yesterday heard speakers view 1938 business with an optimistic outlook and report an increased membership. Mr. Kelly told them that the 1937 membership stood at 667. A jamboree at Hotel Lincoln is to be given tomorrow night for exhibitors, dealers and their wives. Speakers during the day will include Frank P. Duncan, Gosport; Irving W. Clark of Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Co.; A. Kiefer Mayer of Kiefer-Stewart Drug Co., and Rivers Peterson, editor of National Retail Hardware Association publication. New hardware products are being exhibited in the Egyptian room

The reports from the state cov-

eyes, received a severe jolt today. The professor doesn’t grade the examination papers. It's all done by an electric machine which can’t tell a blond from a redhead, but it does know a right and wrong answer. One of 25 in the country, the machine was installed at Purdue this year by Prof. H. H. Remmers, director of educational references. It automatically grades 300 papers in an hour. Each student receives a graphite pencil and a special examination sheet and all he has to do is to make a pencil mark in one of the five answer columns opposite each question. When the professor gets the exam he inserts the paper ih the machine and 750 sets of electric contacts corresponding to the 750 answer positions are pressed against the paper. A pencil mark on an answer position closes an electric circuit and he machine automatically records whether the answer is right or wrong. Students say their grades aren't as high now and that “apple polishing” will beome a lost art.

SWINDLE SUSPECT

The Indiana Securities Commission today had filed three additional charges against W. E. Saylor in Madison County Circuit Court, bringing the total number now pending against him in various courts to six. Saylor is in the Lawrenceburg jail. He and his alleged oconfederate, W. L. Everett, were arrested in Indianapolis last fall. Commission investigators charged they had defrauded elderly widows of stocks. Everett entered a plea of guilty in the Warren County Circuit Court last month and was sentenced to one to seven years in prison.

JOB OFFICE PLACES 1600 YOUTHS HERE

Fifteen per cent of those hired through the Indianapolis office of the State Employment Service in 1937 were between 16 and 21 years of age, George J. Smith, district manager, said today. More than 1600 of about 11,000

of the Temple.

THREE CHARGED WITH | ROBBERY, BANDITRY

Three men today had been charged with robbery and auto banditry after detectives said they confessed to holding up Eaton's Restaurant at 642 E. 38th St. last week and four other establishments. The men, Leonard Marr, 25, of 1408 S. Keystone Ave.; James Utley, 28, of 3606 Prospect St., and Walter Delacy, 25, of 23¢ W. 28th St., waived examination before Municipal Court Judge John McNelis and were bound to the grand jury.

WEATHER BLAMED FOR STREET DELAY

The improvement of 42d St. from Boulevard Place to Clarendon Road will not be completed until late in March due to unfavorable weather conditions, City Engineer Henry Steeg, said today. He added that although the work was to be finished by Dec. 31, he had ordered it stopped. “We cannot go out there and pour concrete in this

applicants hired by Indianapolis employers were in this age class, Mr. Smith said.
