BANDIT WOLF AT
LAST PAYS PRICE

Grand junction. Colo, Dec. 90
The giant gray wolf that for years
roamed Mesa county and caused
hundreds of dollars in losses to
stockmen, has made its last kill.
Luke Hummel of the Dolores sec.
tion is financially much better off
as the slayer of the great wolf, for
he collected score Of rewards.
The wolf leader of bold pack
measured seven and one-half feet
from tip to tip and weighed 15O
pounds. Veteran trappers and hunt
ers say it is one Of the largest ever
killed on the western slope of Colo
RADIO. Scores Of hunters have tried
vainly for years to run down the
giant lobo, but he always avoided
their baited traps and kept out Of
range of their rifles.
Hummel set large trap and at
tached heavy log to it. The next
morning the trap and log were gone
and trail led through the forest
Hummel started in pursuit.
For three days he followed the
windings Of the furrowed path left
by the log as the wolf sought to es-
cape. AT the end Of the third day,
fifty miles from the place where he
set the trap, Hummel came upon
the animal, exhausted but showing
fight. A shot from his 30-30 ended
the VOLTS long career.

Los Angeles. Cal. Dec. 20.--ChIef
OF Police Oaks today asked the city
council for a special secret service
appropriation Of $4,000 to be used
in running down 500 drug agents
who are selling dope" to movie
actors and others IN this city.
"Theer is a master mind behind
this dope lot and an organized ring
Is distributing the stuff" said Oaks.
This vast quantity Of narcotics Is
not flowing In haphazard. The
chief concern is to arrest the brains
OF the organization.
"There are 500 peddlers known to
the police. They will be arrested
II possible. otherwise they win be
driven out OF wn as vagrants."
Chief Oaks expressed the belief
that incidentally this campaign might
reveal information concerning the
murderer of William Desmond Tay-
lor.
The city council is expected to
appropriate the $4,000 asked by
Oaks without delay, his request al
ready having been given an 0. X.
by the police commission.
Meanwhile. Wallace Reid, famous
film star. whose desperate battle
against narcotics weakened him so
he Is now dangerously Ill. continues
to fight for life, with VIII Hays,
movie czar. and practically all Off
cials of the industry "rooting for his
recovery" II vas news OF Reds
plight that aroused new interest In
the Hollywood narcotic situation.
II am heartily in accord with this
campaign" Hays said today with
reference to the offensive against
dope agents. There is nothing In
the traffic in narcotics which is in
digenous to Hollywood or the mo-
tion picture industry. Every city
town and village in the country has
to cope with this terrible evil, and
the public should regard the mat
ter In this light. Cities such as
New York, Chicago, New Orleans.
San Francisco and scores of others
have far more to do with the work
of stopping the dope traffic than
Hollywood"
Hays, following his announcement
that he would be the first to shake
Reid's hand when he was well
enough to see visitors, went to the
late yesterday when doc

LAFAYETTE. Ind. oct. 27.-CBy
A. P)-Invention OF vacuum tube

heart beats so that they may be
heard by an audience OF between
four hundred and Ave hundred peo-
pie. was announced tonight at Pur-
due university Prof. r. B. Abbott
OF the physics department OF the
school. devised the equipment.
The invention was demonstrated
for the first time tonight before an
audience OF the Tippecanoe county
medical society. II was said the
stethoscope will be OF great import
ance TO hospitals and physicians in
detecting heart and lung diseases,
as many sounds Of the body are
magHfied many times and made
distinctly audible.
The magnavox equipment Of a ra-
do receiving outfit was used by Prof.
Abbott in his demonstration. He
showed that with one simplifying
tube, the heart beat could be heard
a few feet away. With two tubes. a
parlor full OF people could hear Il
and with three tubes, 1t could be
heard easily over one OF the largest
halls at Purdue.
Another important feature an
nounced was that the apparatus had
been used for making photograph
records Of the heart action OF a
number OF athletes and persons with
irregular heart beats.
