Show Story Told by Davis
\ Girl Is False
TESTIMONY OF ALL WAS
MARION SEEMED HAPPY
Evidence Of All Indicated
Lambert Girl Did Not
Think Of Suicide

Courtroom, Waukegan, Ill.,, June IT,
The eighteen bunch had their inning
in the game for the life or death Of Win
Orpet today.
The "bunch "-only now 10 strong
are school girls, chums of Marion Lam
bert, and they came into the big court
room half laughing, half frightened and
took the stand, one after the other,
to aid the prosecution Of the youth who
wrecked the life of their friend.
They had been in court before, but
this was their day-the day they were
to refute the story of Josephine Lewis,
now ostracised from the "bunch - who
said Marion had cried and threatened
suicide on the day Of her eighteenth
birthday party, four days before her
body was found.
Bernice Wells came first to the stand.
"What did Marion say to you when
you left the Lambert home the day
of the party7" the prosecutor asked
d" 'Bernice, I am awfully glad You
could come that's what she said, "
the witness answered.
"Then she said she would meet me
at Eleanor Doubles home the next Sun
day"
"But she didn't meet youi" asked
the prosecutor
"she was dead, " Bernice answered.
Then the state got down to the ques-
tion it wanted brought out.
"Did you see Marion go with jose
phine Davis in any other room on the
afternoon of the birthday party9"
."I did not"
"Did you see her crying'"
"No."
Tells Same Story.
Florence Russell came next.
" Did you see any one crying at that'
birthday party9" she was asked.
4" Yes" said Florence. "Anna Paul
son was crying"
Anyone else7"
g Yes, Marion Lambert, both were
crying together"
"What did Marion and Anna says"
"Marion said: Anna I'm awfulIy
sorry you did not arrange to stay all
night with me. We haven't missed
staying together on my birthday for 10
years. -
"'was that all she was crying
about9"
"'Yes."
Then the state turned Miss Russell
over to Attorney Potter of the defense.
for cross examination.
FIOrende admitted she was "iust
friendly" with Marion and that she
was not alone with her on the day Of
her birthday party.
"Alarion told me Sunday morning,
that she had learned win Orpet was en-
gagged to Miss Youker, and that Jose
phine had written viii and soon viii
would come down and tell her the
straight truth of it, >" Miss Russell said.
On redirect examination the state
brought out that Marion had told Flor
ence Orpet had been to Lake Forest
two weeks previous to the birthday
party, and had slept in the garage on
the Kuppenheimer estate, because he
had something on the chauffeur and
could stay there any time he wanted
to and nobody would know it.
Not At All Jealous.
"Marion told me Orpet was Of a
passionate temperament, +" Miss Russell
said. "'He would get mad and fly off
into a temper, Marion said she liked
him that way"
Then Miss Russell sprang the testi-
mony the state had waited for,
"Marion," she said, "told me once
that she though Josehine Davis liked
win Orpet awfully well. But Marion
said she didn't care about that. She
thought it was Josephine's s feeling for

DODGE WANTS MORE Than
WORDS FROM JOHN HERACL

Sport Editor EVENING JOURNAL:
Sir-I notice a reply to my first
letter TO you In last nights paper.
Heracl may try to explain to his
friends that Tom Dodge Is a strang-
er, but he cannot explain his real
reason for side-stepplng a bout with
the man who is making his home
here and who no doubt will boost the
reputation Of Wilmington as a sport
center more than Heracl ever did, or
will. Such talk that he is looking
for a bout with Stecher. Lewis and
Americas is a pretty thin excuse for
a man OF Heracls known ability as
a wrestler ! think. Let him prove
that he is good enough to meet any
OF the three wrestlers he has named
by first finishing my man. Tom
Dodge. Heracl no longer sticks to
that ridiculous excuse OF $500 to
$500; he has found another one al
most as good. Tom Dodge is ready
TO meet John Heracl in a public or
private bout, and does not think that
he Is going out OF his class, nor does
he care about Heracl's weight IL
seems that Heracl has developed a
yellow streak since his bout with
Herold Christensen last year. Is he
afraid TO wrestle for the good OF the
sport alone? Let him read this:
Dodge is willing to guarantee that
he can throw Heracl twice in one
hour of wrestling. Now let him give
some more OF his foolish excuses.
Sincerely yours.
