Vice President Fails
Thrice In Test Of !
Memory

Vice President Coolidge, the
memory expert" Of the SEN
ate, seldom errs in recognizing
Senators, but the hot weather
recently caused him to make
three blunders, to the amuse-
ment Of the galleries and EN-
barrassment of the Senator'S.
The Vice President, with the
necessity Of keeping the names
and home States Of ninety-six
Senators constantly in mind,
can be excused. His memory,
however, slipped the other day
when he recognized Senator
La Toilette (Rep.) Of Wjscon-
sin as the Senator from Min
nesota." La Toilette ignored
the recognition, calling again
TO the chair until the Vice
President realized his mistake
and gave the noted Wisconsin
Senator his correct address"
Closely following this slip,
Coolidge called Pat Harrison,
Democratic leader from Missis-
sippi, the Senator from Louis
lana" Harrison, however, smil.
ingly passed by the error and
began his speech. Fellow Sem
ators later chided the Missis-
sippi leader that he was closing
his prestige"
The third mistake cape a
little later when the Vice
President referred to Senator
King (Dem.) Of Utah as the
Senator from Idaho" King,
like Harrison, ignored the mis-
take. 't- >'is t.

Fought for His Life.
The detectives are convinced that
more than one person is involved IN
the brutal killing. The deceased was
q powerful man and was not too old
TO put up a stiff fight for his life.
The gashes in his arms and wrists
show that he had attempted to ward
off either the AZ or the knife which
his slayers used.
The most convincing point in re-
gard to the fact that more than one
was involved in the killing is that u
single Individual could not have
dragged the body from an automobile
to the hiding place behind the culvert
where II was found.
