Three BEazes in Day Bring
Intensive Drive for
Pyromanlac.

Aroused by three fires Of incen-
diary origin which caused small
losses Tuesday, Fire Chief John j.
O'Brien today appealed to citizens
to and the police and fire depart
ment in their efforts to capture a
fire bug who has been at work here
for the past few weeks.
Eleven known incendiary fires
have occurred in the past two weeks,
most of them in the northwestern
section of the city.
Chief O'Brien said that IL citizens
would call police when they see a
prowler about a vacant house, the
pyronaniac probably would be cap
tured, as he usually fires vacant
houses.
Vacant houses at 339 Minerva St.
and SOC Ogden St., and barn in the
rear Of 41S N. Delaware St., were
set on fire late Tuesday, O'Brien
said. Damage was small.
Smoke coming from tar kettle
on top of the new Illinois building.

an alarm sent in by pedestrian,
who thought the building on fire.

UNITED PRESS
TO Use RADIO
viii Broadcast When Wires
Are Down.

The first arrangement In Indiana
for use of radio to broadcast regu-
lar news reports to newspapers was
announced today by the United
Press Association, which supplies
The indianapolis Time and many
other Hooier dailies with telegraph
news.
In event storms tie up wire facili-
ties, the United Press will send its
news report from the NTimes studio
at the SEVERN, over WFBM,
Merchants Heat and Light Company
broadcasting station, for fifteen
minute periods at IL a.. m. and p.
M, until wires are restored. Only
client papers of the United Press are
permitted to publish such dispatches.
Radio regularly is used by The
Times to broadcast basketball tourna-
ments and weekly Friday night
entertainment program, and by other
newspapers to send special news
reports, but the United Press is the
first organization to arrange to use
the air to make good its regular
service in an emergency.

which dates back to the days of the
war, will first face the court on the
indictment returned by the Marion
county grand jury in August, charging
murder in the first degree for the
death Of Nj. Sweeney.
