Amo Bandit Gets 25-Year Penalty NORTHERN IMPI.K VIES TWO OTHERS. I NON EKATES M AN \M> W I EE DANVILLE, I ml.. June 11—Earl Northern, former convict and parole violator, who was arrested by detectives m Indianapolis Tuesday, pleaded guilty to a charge of bank banditry before Judge A. J. Stevenson in Hendricks Circuit court Friday and was -entenced to serve twenty-five years in Indiana state reformatoryNorthern confessed to holding up and robbing the Amo State bank at Amo of $1,100 the morning of April 27. In his confe-sion he implicated two others, whose names have been withheld by authorities Warrants for their arrest were issued today. William Behrens and his wife, Margaret, of Detroit, Mich., and Shirley Patteison, who are held in th“ local jail under $10,000 bonds, were not implicated in the crime, according to Northern’s confession. Authorities believe he is attempting to shield Behrens and his wife, hi- relatives. Lelota Bellinore, 17. of Indianapolis yesterday told detectives how she accompanied Earl Northern on his trip to rob the Amo bank April 27, swallowed a headache tablet and a soft drink during the holdup, and returned calmly home to spend the $r>0 he gave her for clothes and a “good time.” Miss Bellmore met Northern April 2d. according to her statement, and he asked her if she wished to go with him on a “job” where there was some “easy money”. He told her he planned to rob the Amo bank, and made an engagement to meet her the following

day.

As they drove to Amo, they were joined by Behrens and a girl who is still at large, and the two automobiles proceeded to a spot near Amo. Northern and Behrens went ahead in one car to rob the hank, leaving the girls in the second car, she said. The girls calmly drank a soft drink and Miss Bellmore took a headache

tablet while the robbery was being enacted, according to her statement. .“Come on, Babe, we’ve got the money,” Northern is alleged to have said as he and Behrens drove back to the waiting car. REIT BEK \N CONVENTION (Continucil Iroin Page One) the issue will o given opportunity to disagree but I •• managers are lining up the votes to control the final decision. On the vice presidency, a general undercunent of feeling exists that vice-president Curtis because of age should he replaced by a younger man. H wever, hi- old friends, the old guard in the party organization, have no other candidate and feel that to atempt a change might leave bruised ; feelings Mi d that it is Iretter to renominate the ■ icket. Only a -tampede from the convention floor will upset this Such stampedes, while extremely rate on tie presidential nomination. are frequent on the vice preside! tial conte-t. Party leaders do not usually take Tie same advance precautions with the latter is-ue. CHICAGO, lune 11 (UP)—Organized dry lead rs were given to understand today that they probably will obtain no -upport from President Hnov r in any fight to resist the rising tide sw oping the Republican paity towar I idoption of a resubmis- , sion platform at its national convenj lion next week. Two of tin most prominent professional dry leaders, Dr. E C. Dinwiddie, head of the Allied Dry Forces, and Dr. E. H Cherinston, head of the \vi Id league against alcholism, ! alarmed by reports that the Republican convention was in danger of being stampe le for direct repeal anxiously sought council from their chief aides w ithin the Republican organization, Chairman Simeon D. Kes-, of the Republican national committee. (They received news disc uragirg to their pn jects. Fes- C ld them he, personally, was as loyal to prohibition as ever, hut as chairman of the Republican na tional committee he would take no part in attempting to influence the convention. Then the two leaders asked if Senator Bmah was ceming to the convention. Senator Foss explained he did not think so, because Senator Borah had

attempted recently to obtain Hoover’s backing for a dry fight on the con vention floor, but was unsuccessful. PHONE PATRONS ON WAR PATH AT RUSSELLVILLE
