She and | the Speaker always carry a buckeve and a rabbit's foot. Mrs. Bankhead attended the convention with Mrs, Lawrence Robert and Mrs. Alben W. Barkley, and arrived just in time to | hear Rep. Bankhead begin his | speech. Sunday night after dinner, Mr. | Bankhead got his manuscript out and read it to her. It took some time—4500 words—but she didn't mind, though she confessed she never really enjoved his speechmaking unless it was extempo- | raneous. | Their daughter—Mrs. Bank=head's stepdaughter—actress TaTullah Bankhead, was playing the Straw Hat Circuit “somewhere in Massachusetts, I forget where” but listening to the keynote speech { by radio. :

State Chairman | Wiliam H. Burke and delegation chairman John McCormack are loudly trying to break the delegation away from its pledge to Mr. Farley. Mr. Farley may have been Ssinging his political swan song last night when he faced the first night meeting of the convention to present the slate of temporary officials. His face was grave while he predicted another Presidential victory for the Democratic Party. He is against a third term, but will vote for the ticket this year, regardless, and he believes the nomination should be made unanimous when the victor finally is decided. Mr. Farley is a party man. “And now, men and women of the Democratic National Convention Committee,” he told delegates, “it becomes my duty to relinquish the gavel and present to you the temporary officers who will guide your proceedings until you have ex-

COLUMBUS, O,, July 16 (U.P), —The “blitzkrieg” effect of a new cocktail, the “Hitler Special,’ were described in police court today. James V. Sharpless said he had “several” last night. When Sharpless went home, he demanded that his pretty wife untie his shoe laces. “When I said no, he began beating me with his fists,” Mrs, Sharpless testified when she appeared in court with a black eye and a bruised face. Her husband said he didn’t remember what happened after he drank the “specials.” “It's a dozen different kinds of liquor all mixed together and when you drink it, you go blitz- | krieg,” he explained. | Judge John Mathias sentenced Sharpless to 30 days in the workhouse and a $20 fine.

Still bewildered that a police trap caught him so swiftly and securely as he attempted his first crime, Floyd McGinn, 21, of 1220 Oliver Ave, appeared in Municipal Court today and his case was continued until Friday. Charged only with vagrancy, and held on a $5000 bond, McGinn was with Robert Carter, 22, Sunday
night when police ended an attempt to crack the safe in a West Side grocery. Carter was shot and killed by officers.

LESTER ALBERT ALLEN, 13, of 2248 Pierson Ave. reported to police he had been bitten by a water snake and police hurried to his side. After a great deal of brush beating, they found and killed the snake, about 18 inches long. Meanwhile, Lester, and his brother, Elmer, 16, went to City Hospital. Physicians there couldn't find the bite. They found a scratch,
they said, but no bite. And about that time an expert said the snake was not a water snake but a garter snake, which is harmless. Things are just where they were before the incident happened.

In his petition, Mr. Hall claimed the City sought to revoke the six licenses on grounds that six cabs were being operated in violation of a 1933 ordinance, The ordinance provides for one taxicab for each 1000 population.
