ILLINOIS RAGING SERVICE TO END

Wires to Close at Noon as Bookies Elsewhere Get Extension.

CHICAGO, Nov. 9 (U. P.).—The Illinois Bell Telephone Co. cuts service at noon today to M. L. Annenberg’s horse racing information services, ending direct telephone transmission of horse racing results to more than 1000 handbooks in Illinois and the Calumet section of Indiana. The shutdown will mark the first time in 40 years that Chicago hand-

tral racing information service. Handbook .operators questioned today said they would continue to operate by taking wagers over the counter and paying off after they have learned results through other sources. The company: announced it would take the action in compliance with an order by U. S. District Attorney William J. Campbell and Cook County State’s Attorney Thomas J. Courtney to- cease service to the agencies or face prosecution for violation of lottery laws. Attorneys for Annenberg, owner of the Nationwide News Service, a Delaware corporation, and the Illinois Nationwide News Service, Inc., failed late yesterday in: an attempt to block the cancellation in Illinois. Federal Judge James H. Wilkerson refused a petition for a temporary restraining order to prevent -Illinois Bell from complying with the order. However, Judge Wilkerson granted a temporary restraining order, effective until Nov. 15, compelling the American Telephone and Telegraph Co., to continue its service to the Annenberg agencies everywhere ex-

cept in Illinois.

NEW .YORK, Nov. 9 (U. P).—

Fritz Kuhn, leader. of the German-

American Bund, lost last-minute attempts to delay his trial on grand theft charges today and selection of a “blue ribbon” jury, was begun in General Sessions Court. Judge James G. Wallace quickly overruled petitions for a change of venue and a postponement made by Peter L., Sabbatino, counsel for the burly Bund leader, saying: “Let the trial proceed.” Mr. Kuhn appeared slightly annoyed at the speed with which his counsel's pleas were rejected. Mr. Sabbatino’s argument was that his client could not get a. fair trial in this city. Mr. Kuhn. is charged with theft of $5641 from the Bund. Jury selection is expested to require two days.

STREET CORNER)

Killing of Ex-Capone 'Employee Carried Out in Typi‘cal ‘Racketeer Fashion.

CHICAGO, Nov. 9. (U. P.).—Edward J. O'Hare, burly, good-humored owner of a string of horse and greyhound’ racing parks in seven states, left a tangled skein of personal and business associations. today to perplex detectives. trying to learn who rubbed him out in: historically correct gangland fashion—and why. O’Hare was widely known among gamblers and ‘sportsmen, a man famed in a world of easy-living folk for neither drinking nor wagering. But for a few minutes late yesterday he was ‘a terror-stricken fugitive, desperately pressing the accelerator of his 12-cylinder automobile in a vain effort to outrun a carload -of assassins pursuing him from Sportsman’s Park, a race track. on the Southwest Side of Chicago of which; he was president.

One-Time Capone Employee

It was an assassination true to the cold-blooded tradition of a gang era all but forgotten in Chicago since O’Hare’s one-time employer, Al Capone, went to Alcatraz. Down Ogden Ave. the cars sped. When they reached a deserted stretch the pursued drew close and blazed away. Three bullets struck O’Hare in the head and his car careened into a pole. The killers were gone when two painters ran out of a store and discovered O'Hare dead. Police said he evidently knew he was being chased, but if he knew the identity of the. men who emptied two. shotguns at him he carried the secret with him to death in. the wreck of his automobile. A 32-caliber pistol lay on. the. seat beside him. : Inquiry Follows Two Lines

- Two lines of inquiry seemed most likely to be productive: ; 1. An illicit romance. A passionate message addressed in Italian to a “Margie” on a commercial telegraph blank was found on his body. An associate declared that O’Hare, divorced, had formed a close attachment to an Italian girl formerly employed at the park, against the opposition of the girl’s family. Her name was not Margie. 2. The gambling racket. “If is a significant fact,” said Capt. William Burke of the police district where O'Hare was killed, “that he wag killed so soon: after the closing of Sportsman’s Park. It was. reported that he had an unusually good season there.” The park was erected on the site of a greyhound track run by the Capone. syndicate in the lush days of the ‘Chicago gangs.
