about $5000 more than in 1937. An indication that more owners are declaring their pets was seen in

the fact that, despite the increase |

so far, fewer assessment lists have been received this year than in the same 1937 period. There are less, Mr. Cunningham said, because the deputy assessors weren't able to start. their work quite as soon this year as they did a year ago. Approximately 40,000 lists have been received so far, he said. Deadline for them is May 15. Four additional deputies have been placed in the assessor’s office to serve taxpayers who must file returns during the noon hour, Mr. Cunningham said. : : Those who haveh't been at home when the deputy called for the iist + can mail it in, or call the assessor's _ office by phone and tell when they’ll be at home, Mr. Cunningham said. In that event, the deputy will be sent out to pick up the return.

LEGION MAPS PLANS FOR STATE MEETING

Arrangements Group Named At District Session.

An arrangements committee to complete plans for handling the annual convention of the state depart- | ment of the American Legion here next August today. began its work. The group was named at a 12th district meeting last night at the 40 & 8 chateau. Committee. members include John R. Ruddick, national treasurer; Barnett W. Breedlove, state treasurer; Orville C. Denbo, district treasurer; Joseph F. Lutes, past district commander, and Lawrence F. Connaughton, past commander of Emerson Post 262. Tentative dates for the convention are Aug. 21, 22 and 23. The convention was voted to Indianapolis after Michigan City, where it was scheduled originally, withdrew, because of inadequate housing facilities.

BUND TROOPER HEAD” NAMED SPY SUSPECT

NEW YORK, April 8 (U. P)— One of the seven prisoners held here by the Government in connection with a German espionage plot was identified today as a group leader of the Ordnungsdienst, the uniformed storm troopers of the Ger-man-American Bund. He was Wilhelm Boening, one of three witnesses held with four persons charged directly with stealing Army and Navy secrets for a foreign power. - James Wheeler-Hill, Bund national secretary, said Boening resigned from the troopers ‘some time ago.” However, “Volksecho,” liberal German newspaper published

posed only last Saturday.

fall planting.

No Wonder Red-Eared Sunfish Are What We Get! Here's Why

Red-eared sunfish are what Hoosiers finally wind up with if they're not careful when they set out to catch bluegills, the State Conservation Department said today, with its tongue in its cheek.

Because, in almost the same breath, the Department admitted, it is growing red-ears at Riverside hatchery for the expressed purpose of planting them in Indiana waters where they suspect Hoosiers will be fishing for bluegills. ! The Department is proud of the fact that red-ears are native and almost exclusively: Hoosier. They apparently started here and, because they don’t do well in running water that’s going some place else, they stay in Hoosier still water, close to home. Some Imitation Ones

Other sunfish have red on their ears? They are called pumpkinseed sunfish and are only distant cousins. The real red-ear sports red for the entire margin of both ears. Pumpkinseeds have only a little red on their ears, and bluegills have none at all. Since the Department has been putting them around in different lakes over the state, they have been discovered in waters where a few years ago they were supposed not to be. : Usually three red-ears will weigh one pound if they get together. Some have been known to weigh 20 ounces by themselves, however. Red-ears are sassy when caught, easy to propagate, and harder to capture than bluegills. For a lifelong resident, the redear has not been as generally

known as he should have been, the ||

Department feels.

PAYS MONTH'S RENT WITH 4000 PENNIES

CHICAGO, April 8 (U. P)— Mitchell Novak, policeman, ama{eur radio operator and penny saver, today handed his landlady, Mrs. Stephanie Cekan, a bag of 4000 pennies to pay a month’s rent. The bag weighed 27 pounds. ~~ Mrs. Cekan said she refused to renew Novak’s lease, not because she objected to pennies, but because she didn’t like the radio gadgets on the roof. :

End Quarrel.

CORDELL, Okla., April 8 (U. P.). —Marion Larner could not stop quarrelling with his wife even after the two of them knelt together and prayed for divine guidance. For that reason, he allegedly told authorities today, he beat her to death on their 15th wedding anniversary. County Attorney Raymond Plum-

lee claimed that Larner, a member of the Methodist Church board of stewards and one of western Oklahoma’s civic leaders, dictated a confession. He repeated at his.ar-

| tions. The three of them got on their knees and “prayed the whole thing out.” Larner said he did not

see the widow after that. | But the quarreling between Larner and his wife continued, he said. He decided to take her riding March 31, their anniversary, and on a lonely country road he allegedly beat her while she begged for mercy. Then he was to have run the. car into a ditch to make it appear that his wife had been injured in an automobile accident. So Mrs. Larner died the next day. Before her death she described the attack to hospital attendants. When the blood-stained hammer was
