~ SEEK MURDER ~ GLUE IN DEATH
AT GRAVEL PIT
Yorktown Farmer Believed
Dead Before Car Was Submerged.
NEWCASTLE, June 10 (U. P).— A State detective today searched for decisive proof that August Glass, 32-year-old farmer of near York-
town, was murdered before his automobile went over a gravel pit embankment, submerging with its driver in a pond almost inaccesible from the main highway a quarter of
a mile away.
A post-mortem examination last night by Coroner Elmer H. Bentley and Dr. W. U. Kennedy disclosed that Glass had died before he touched the water, and State Police Detective F. S. Fosler found additional evidence. The autopsy recorded the death as resulting from a broken neck, and Dr. Kennedy said there also were three hemorrhagic bruises on the body, a possible skull fracture and an absence of water in the lungs. The body was badly decomposed. The doctor also revealed that there was no blood in the middleaged farmer's heart, a significant fact because the blood had drained to the bruises, which would not have happened after death. Mr. Fosler, who said he was convinced the death was neither accident nor suicide, found the ignition switch in the car turned on and the car in low gear. The car was dragged from the pit near Mooreland. Ind., after a farmer, plowing nearby, saw the car in about 25 feet of water. Mr. Glass was in the rear seat. In his clothes were a pocket knife and a brass knuck. The coroner estimated the body had been in the water nearly
three weeks. Claude Glass, the father, said Au- | gust worked part of the time in the | Muncie Foundry & Machine Co. He | had served a jail sentence in Ken- ! tucky for stealing tobacco from warehouses and hauling it to Lexington, the elder Mr. Glass said. The younger Glass had been living with his parents since he secured a |
divorce four vears ago.

WINDSORS’ VISIT LIKELY TO GAIN OFFICIAL FAVOR
Britain’s Only Concern Said To Be Discussion of Social Conditions.
LONDON, June 10 (U. P.) —The Duke of Windsor’s plan to visit tne United States next spring probably will be approved by Buckingham Palace, provided it is not accompanied by any “ballyhoo” about investigating social conditions, it was reported today. Government and lower circles of the court were taken by surprise today when the British press republished the report of the visit as dis-
closed in New York.

hoped to keep his travel plans secret until near the time for his departure. The revelation, however, was not considered likely to affect his plans, since it will be heavily emphasized that the trip is primarily a private vacation, and that any observations of social conditions that the Duk2 may happen to make will be made in passing. It was understood the Windsors plan to leave Paris about midMarch with only a small retinue. The British Government, it was stated, will not object to the visit as long as it is private and there are no embarrassing official receptions, such as at the British Embassy in Washington or at the White House.
STOCK DIES IN FARM BLAZE

Pastor Offers
Sanctuary for

MARLBORO, Mass. June 10 (U. P.).—Two churches offered sanctuary today to Venus and Apollo, suddenly banished from Marlboro High School after 50 years. The Rev. Elisha Hooper, pastor of the Marlboro Methodist Church, said he would be “Glad to accept the statues for my Sunday school room.” The Rev. Carl Heath Kopf, pastor of Boston's Mt. Vernon Congregational Church, wired the school committee an offer of “shelter and decent exposure.” Recalling that the original statue of Apollo is in the Vatican at Rome, the Rev. Kopf said: “If it is decent enough for the Vatican, it is decent enough for our young people to see and admire.” The school committee has ordered the statues removed before September as indecent. Miss Edna Granitsas, School Committeewoman | who suggested their removal, said | the reason for her complaint was “obvious.”

Identification of Thomas Morris, | 31-year-old Negro, by two trolley | operators as the man who held them up last summer was before a jury hearing his trial on murder charges today. The evidence was admitted after Judge Frank P. Baker of Criminal
Court overruled a defense motion that such evidence was not admissable because of the remoteness of the holdups. Morris is charged with having slain Arthur Demree, retired postal employee, in an attempted holdup last July 29. Glenn Wasson, 1935 Keystone Ave., said Morris was the man who held him up on July 25. Irwin Sparks,
36 N. Hamilton Ave, said Morris | robbed him on July 15, but on crossexamination amended his statement by saying he “wasn’t absolutely cer- | tain” Morris was the man. Three police officials also testified vesterday. Sergt. Fred Hague and | Officer McGee told about a dying | statement made by Mr. Demres. Roderick Rae, police department scientific criminologist, identified three 32-20 bullets, one of which caused Mr. Demree's death.

Grant Request. | A committee appointed by the | School Board to study the City’s request for use of 10 schoolgrounds as auxiliary playgrounds this summer will report favorably to the Board next Tuesday, Mrs. Louis B. Markun, Park Board member, said today. She said she had received assurance that the committee favored the project and that final School Board approval is “little more than a formality.” The Park Board announced it also has been loaned a vacant lot belonging to the School Board at Howard and Reisner Sts. for a playground. The ground formerly was the site of School 46. A petition
