IA I HER SAYS
/ HUMAN HUSK'
i. HAD SOUL
Trial Nears End for Slayer
/ Of Demented Daughter
a. to Protect Her.

LITTLETON, Colo. Nov. 10.-CP,
The trial Of DR.. Elmer Blazer,
charged with the murder of his 81
year-old daughter, the "child-woman
who never grew up, neared its final
stages today as - defense prepared
to summon its last witness. The
prosecution was ready to close its
case with the calling of two re-
buttal witnesses.
Defense counsel for the country
physician later executed a surpris-
ing about-face movement yesterday
when it dismissed the defendant him
self from the witness stand without
dclving into its announced plan CT
contending that the human husk =
Blazer slew had no soul and that it
was no crime 10 take her life.
On the contrary, II. W. Spansler.
defense counsel, drew from the physi-
clan the statement that he believed
in Immortality, and that he believed
his daughter had a soul.
Lewis Mowry, chief Of letsnse
counsel indicated, however, that his
final words might seek TO justify his
clients act by calling up the ancient
law of nature-the survival Of the
fittest.
The state brought its introduction
of testimony TO a close Friday with
startling suddenness after calling
only six witnesses, who testified IN
perfunctory manner to the circun-
stances surrounding the crime. II
also introduced as one Of its salient
points two letters, said to have been
written by Blazer, who gave the mo
tive for his act and directed the final
disposition of his estate. IL also
sought through one alienist and
through cross-examination to prove
that Blazer feigned suicide in an at
tempt TO cover up his deed.

General Howe asked him IL he

Major H. H. Arnold, in charge of

In an effort to prove Colonel Nit
chell's charge that high army and
navy officers had given Congress mis-
leading information, defense counsel
directed Major Arnold's attention to
statements made by Rear Admiral
Hilary Jones and others TO House
committees.
The major testified that the United
States Air Service did not compare
favorably with those of other major
powers, as General Drum had report
ed to a House investigating COM

Under investigation Of Colonel
Moreland, the Air Service officer said
he did not take geological differences

Radio Dial
BY Listener-In

The Brahms Club, of New York,
under the leadership of Leo Braun,
offered a most pleasing choral con-
cert last night, and anyone who
turned the dials in another direction
missed something worthwhile.
The Brahms Club selection of
numbers was particularly fortunate,
but the thing that made" it's con.
cert was the excellent transmits
sion-a thing rarely achieved in the
broadcasting of choral concerts.
We radio fans can talk ourselves
blue in the face about the wonders

sceptics Of it's. qualifications as a
reproducer of real music until the
experts have found some more

Its an acknowledged fact that
radio can gite a good reproduction

strument, and most musicians will
admit that it does a good job with
smaller ensembles, such as quarters
and trios. But. when it comes to
transmitting the larger units in
more involved scores and various
tonal groups, radio has something
to learn.
However, when it is realized that
the automobile, much less intri-
cate machine, has been in the field
for about twenty-five years and is
still far from perfect, while the
radio has been out for only fifth

The real marvel is that radio has
