had dealings with in the past 20 years.
Flynn was long past his prime when he
hit Seattle few years ago. Never a box
er but just tough, man with an iron
jaw and durable body, Flynn was the
trial horse of the heavyweights at the
time when Jack Dempsey was first COM
ing into his own. Even then Flynn had
started on the downgrade as fighter.
But what he might have lost in speed
in those later years marked no decline in
his ability to take punishment. 1t will be

Identification of the second victim
of the McCarr mine explosion, on
which an alleged $85, 600 insurance
SWindle was based, as youth who
had been seen riding with one of the

the case gave definite direction today
to the plans of the prosecution.
Numerous other links by which the
commonwealth hopes to convict w.
II. Turner, mine superintendent, and
Joe Jack jr. his brother-in-laW, OF
the murder of Henry Wilson and

were revealed last night by Com

the close of a lengthy investigation.
Stump was positive in deClarin (
that Davis, the son of Mrs. Ella

Nine. Louise Homer American
dowaEer of the concert stage, award
ed the honor of being considered one
of the - greatest women in this COun-
try, gave a song recital at the Wash
ington Auditorium last night before
an unusually large audience that filled
the major portion of the orchestra
several of the boxes and the entire bal
Cony.
The audience was most enthusiastic
over Nine. Homer's singing. particu
larly in her Interpretation of her huS
band Sidney Homer's-Songs. The
entire Homer family was present in a
front box, including Mr.. Homer, Lou
iSe Homer StireS and her husband and
the other daughters. Little 12-year- old
Joy Homer, the youngest of the fam
lily. came over from st. Agnes Episco-
pal School for Girls. near Alexandria,
with 26 of her schoolmates, to hear
her mother sing and was very proud
of her. 1t was pleasingly obvious that
the whole family was bursting with
pride at Nine. Homer'S success.
The unique feature of the program
was the first public performance of
Mr.. Homer's musical setting of
Vachel Lindsay's General William
Booth Enters Into Heaven'-a poem
teeming with vitality and color. 1t
turning of the program leaves rust
ling as the audience followed the
singer with concentration. Perhaps
more dramatic in it's appeal was Mr.
Homer'S other song, The Song of
the Shirt poem by Thomas Hood.
The one regret was that more of his
songs We're not given. Everybody
seemed to thoroughly enjoy Love
Was Once a Little Boy" Sheep and
Lambs" and Handel's Coral Reefs"
all sung in English.
Nine. Homer opened her program
with the recitative and aria Mon Piu
di F'iori'' from Mozart's Titus" which
was sung with beautiful notes in some
of the legato passages She devoted
about half of the program to German
lieder by Beethoven, Schumann, Schu-
bert, Hugo Wolf, Tschaikowsky and
BrahmS-all exquisite songs sung
with consummate artistry of intona-
ton. Individual Interpretation was
especially given Schubert's Die Junge
Nome" and BeethOven's humorous
Der Kuss." operate arias sung as
encores included Mon Occur s'ouvre
a ia Foix," from Samson ct Della"
and Stride la Vampa,' from I'll
Trovatore." Nine. Homer will sing
the role of Della in the Washington
Opera Company's production of that
opera here January 25.

COOLIDGE MESSAGE
HELPS RED CROSS
Finest Tribute Ever Paid
Work of Organization, De-
CIareS Gen. Johnston.

President Cooidge's statement, il
which the aims of the American Red
Cross We're cited in connection with its
ninth annual roll call, was character
lied yesterday by Gen. John A. John
StOn, chairman of the roll call for the
District chapter, as the greatest
tribute that ever has been paid to the
work of the organization.
The message, Gen. Johnston said,
gave nationwide impetus to the pur-
pose Of the Red Cross. Already, he
emphasized, the responsiveness of
Washington's Citizenry prior to the
official opening of the roll call is un-
paralleled.
Mrs. Harry G. Barnes, secretary of
the District chapter. last night re-
ported that 500 large Red Cross
posters, authorized for use during the
roll call, will be distributed through
the city today. The show window at
the roll call headquarters in 14l2 +
street displays a picturesque exhibit
showing the various administrations
of the humanitarian work OF the Red
Cross arranged with the use of mani
kins by the firm of Woodward &
Lothrop.
The local stores, in addition to in
stalling booths in the buildings, yes
terday reported arrangements had
been made for Red Cross window dis
