CALEXICO, Aug. 22.-Robert b.

sistance in searching for his sister and
a number of officers were detailed to
assist him. A thorough survey OF all
the resorts in Mexicali failed to supply
any evidence of her here and young

At Inglewood
SEARCH FOR PROOF
Liquor Sold to High School
Pupils Alleged
Grievance
United Press Leased Wire

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 22.-Belief
that they were aiding authorities in
legally conducted raid was expressed
today by defendants in the trial of 35
alleged Klansmen for their connection
with the raid at Inglewood last April.
II. Z. Waite, proprietor of the Titan
Garage in Inglewood, where the raiders
assembled the night they entered the
house of Fidel Elduayen, was the third
to eorroborate this claim when he took
the stand today.
Waite declared that Night Marshal
Woerner was the first to fire when he
was called to the scene and attempted
to disperse the raiders.
Lieutenant Colonel Thomas H. Jen-
nings, one of the defendants, earlier
took the stand and told of its organi-
cation from the Klan point of view.
) Liquor Sold to Students
Admitting he was member, Jen-
| nings declared the raid was planned by
| Constable Mariner Nosher, "who had
beeen tormented" by the people Of In
glewood because "liquor had been sold
to high school Students" The Eldu-
ayen family, he said, was believed re-
sponsible.
A meeting of the Klan was held, he
said, in an undertaking parlor the night
previous at which Kleagle Nathan A.
Baker "talked in his theatrical way, -
but afterwards the robes and flamipA
cross were discarded and the raid was
discussed with MOsher who advised
against the use of robes or arms.
The men who entered the Elduayen
house went to buy liquor as evidence
and the others followed in a rush after
their advance guard had been there for
some time, it was stated. No masks
were worn, he said. Jennings gave no
direct testimony in regard to the shoot
ing except to say he heard about Is
shots fired.
Jennings said that none Of the
wounded men had on masks when he
saw them.
High School Pupils to Testify
On cross examination, Jennings adj
mitted that some Klansmen played
prominent roles in the raid, but insist
ed it was actually planned and directed
by Officers. William Hall, another dc.
fendant, testified today.
The defense plans to introduce evil
dence to show the Elduayen bonded
winery was a bootlegging establish
ment, and testimony of several young
high school students will be introduced
in this connection, it was intimated.

MEXICAN BANDITS
ROB BONDS STORE

Information reached the sheriff. s Of
flee that five Mexicans had held up the
Bonds Corner store, robbing the pro
prietor of $65 which he had in the cash
register, and leaving him bound to a
chair. Two or three Swiss ranchers
who drove to the store before the rob
bcrs left, were relieved of their money
and watches. Deputy Sheriff Sam Grif-
fin made a hurried trip to the store
where he picked up the trail OF the ban
dts who were travelling east in large
Columbia car. Before leaving they cut
the telephone wires at the store, which
delayed pursuit. Griffin followed the
tracks of the car to the international
line, where they disappeared ON the
Mexican side, showing the Mexicans
had evidently planned raid on this
side, knowing they did not run much
chance of capture. The Mexican au-
thorities have been notified, and arc

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-The day
of the fliver airplaneo has been
brought near as the result of recent
successful experiments with motorless
gliders, Glenn II. Martin, pioneer avia-
tor and aircraft manufacturer Of Cleve-
land, said here today in an exclusive in
terview with the United Press.
Martin believes that within few
years, as the result of the development
of the glider principle, purring planes
in large numbers will be dashing
through the air with the same ease
that motorcars travel ON the city
streets.
cit is not far stride from the glid-
er that will maintain itself in the air
for two hours to the low powered, low
priced sport plane which every man
may own,' Martin declared. "That,
think, will come about within three o.
four years.
"The cost of this plane will be
reasonable compared with the automo-
bile.

LONDON, Aug. 22.-The most wor'
ried duchess in Great Britain Is the
Duchess of Leinster.
All because the Duke of Lelnster
her husband, is the most adventurous
duke in Great Britain, widely known as
| the "daredevil duke.
Somewhere in Ireland, in the forces
Of the Irish Free State, there may be
serving this tall, good-looking man of
80 who, if given half a chance, will be
sure to do something that is brave TO
the point of being reckless. For TIM
duke is new recruit to the armed
forces of Michael Collins.
Outside of the royal dukes there are
only 28 dukes in the United Kingdom
and Leinster is the only present holder
of a coronet who adds any spice of
romance to the title.
Here is his record:
Money-He cared so little for 1T that
in his younger years he was often in
the bankruptcy courts.
Love and Beauty-He cared SO much
for it he stormed the heart of the beau
tiful May Etheridge, London s favor
ite Gaiety girl, and married her when
he was just 21.
Adventure-He liked it so well he
bought an estate in Canada and roughel
it.
Sports--Holding an auto driver s
license since he was Is, he has been
such a speed merchant that he has otter
been fined by grave magistrates, al
| though in his whole Is years of driving
he has never had an accident, not even
on his recent record-breaking 15-hour
drive of 6l0 miles from London to
Aberdeen.
War-An officer in q West Riding
| regiment, he served throughout the
| great 1914-191S conflict, being badly
wounded a number of times and always
returning to duty just as soon as he
was patched up.
Just where the duke is now is {.
puzzle none in London can solve. There
were just three pieces of news in con
nection with him before he disappeared
from his usual metropolitan haunts.
| He announced he was going to cross
| the Atlantic Ocean single-handed in a
12-ton ketch.
| And it was stated he had offered
his services to the Irish Free Stale
in any capacity i'll which he could be
/, useful.
Knowing his impetuous character
and his bravery and love of excite
ment and adventure, his London pals
are betting pound sterling to a plug
ged penny piece that he will "bust
right into first page news almost any
day soon.
