CHINA MAY REOPEN

CHUNKING, May 27 (U. P).— Plans are under way for reopening China's famous Yenching university next fall in Chengtu, about 175 miles northwest of here.

The other three were the University of Nanking; Ginling coliege for women, which formerly was at Nanking, and Cheloo university, formerly located at Tsinan in Shantung. West China union university agreed to loan a number of its classrooms to Yenching and other institutions in Chengtu will donate | laboratories and libraries. Gen. Chang Chan will donate his temple for dormitories, while Finance Minister H. H. Kung will supply funds.

LOS ANGELES, May 27 (U. P.) — Michael Rockwell, 30, was accused in a grand jury indictment today of attempting to poison his wealthy father-in-law, Sam Krantz, 49, in the second alleged “murder by mail”

plot uncovered in Los Angeles in eight months. The grand jury charged that Rockwell, who managed one of Krantz’ chain of clothing stores, mailed his father-in-law a bottle of wine containing a large amount of arsenic. Rockwell, handsome and curly

have inherited control of 20 per cent of Krantz’ holdings through a legacy to Krantz’ daughter, Mrs. Bluma Rockwell. Rockwell, the indictment charged, mailed a bottle of wine, bearing this label, to Krantz: “Here's your free sample of port-o-pepe, a new healthful drink that

Our salesman will call on you in a few days.” But Krantz did not follow directions, officers said. He took only a small gulp of the wine and became violently ill. A police chemist said that a full glass probably would have proved fatal. Krantz reported the incident to police in August, 1940, but said he had not suspected Rockwell iy

he learned that Rockwell allegedly had sought to hire somebody to kill him, Last February, a special officer, reported to police that Rockwell had offered him $600 to hire thugs to dispose of his father-in-law. Investigators instructed the officer ta pretend to close the negotiations. Meanwhile, they gathered evidence for Rockwell’s indictment.

Mrs. Rockwell asserted that the charges against her husband were

“ridiculous.” She refused to recog-|°
