PRIMITIVE INDIAN
MUSIC BROADCAST
FROM KOA STATION

Southwestern tribal chants of
strange, unknown origin, many of
them wholly unfamiliar to white man,
will be microphoned for broadcast list
ners for the first time over Station
KOA Monday evening MAY ~ as
the inaugural feature of stupendous
eight-day Music week program.
Conducting this unique program of
ceremonial Indian songs will be DR..
Jean Allard Jeancon who is widely
known as director and curator of arch
aeology and ethnology at the Colorado
State museum.
This microphone offering, which is
slated for o'clock mountain standard
time, includes the colorful Butterfly
dance and song of the Hopi, Buffalo
and Game dance and Greeting to the
Sun of the Tewa tribesmen, Moon
song of the Utes, the Apaches Sun
song and the mysterious Good Luck
chant of the Navajos.
"Of the many Indian ceremonials,
the Good Luck song is perhaps one of
the most interesting" DR.. Jeancon ex-
planned.
at is the means of expelling bad
influences when a tribesman becomes
i'll or when he undertakes a long
journey, begins a hunt, prepares for
warfare, moves to new camp site and
so on.
Recently, l heard it in entirety
when an Indian companion undertook
to guide me across 150-mile stretch
of Arizona wilderness to the ruins of
a prehistoric American civilization
which flourished more than 1000 years
ago.
Before starting our hazardous trip,
my guide lifted his head to the sky and
began mumbling. Next he lowered
his eyes to the rocks beneath our feet
and then chanted to the east, south,
west and north.
CHOW we safe from DEVILS he
spoke in the language of the Navajo,
when the ceremony was over. L sing
to the six sacred regions and drive
away bad magic. Now we make trip"
The experience afforded DR.. Jeancon
the first opportunity to obtain the
complete song from oral recitation, it
was explained. The chant is particu-
larry suited to microphone production
and will, he predicted, stimulate wide
spread interest in the radio realm.
Explaining the other ceremonials,
the Butterfly dance and the Buffalo
and Game dances are spring events, he
said, while the Sun song takes place
just before winter weather. The Greet
ing to the Sun, said to be an inspiring
ceremony, occurs at daybreak and the
Moon song takes place at the begin
ming of every lunar month.
Concluding the program will be
primitive music of the Northwestern
Indian tribes, lingering songs of old
Spain, cowboy ballads, and songs of
the covered wagon" period. The
complete studio presentation is de-
signed to portray the spirit and de-
velopment of the West.

If HAIR and skirts keep on getting shorter,
and styles continue to grow more youth
tul with every passing season, we may
expect to find ourselves in rompers and
layettes. The sailor collar and the box
plated skirt, so brief that it looks almost
like a kilt, are the latest rejuvenating
fashions. One Of the best-known French
dressmakers uses shantung for the skirt
and lightweight wool jersey for the
blouse. The new standings come in
lovely soft colors and are also smart in
their natural honey shade. For the
country, the sleeves may be short or long.
For the city the long sleeve is correct.

'GOAT,GRABBING' GOAT
 BANNED BY CITY DEPT.
zink's Pet So Noisy Neigh bors Can't Sleep, Is
 Explanation

Paul zink has been keeping a goat at his premises on Stewart street for less than a week, but already it has the neighbors' goats" and two city departments are on the verge of "losing their goats"
 The health department, after an investigation, has declared the white-whiskered creature a nuisance and has instructed it's owner that it cannot be kept in residence area. The building department has ruled that, since the health department finds the animal to be a nuisance, 1t cannot be maintained in a building on Zink's property. Today he was informed by Building Inspector A. N. Rutherford that it cannot be housed on the Stewart street lot.
 Zink brought the goat here from Middletown last Saturday. The ani- nal appeared to be inoffensiVe until the following morning when, neigh bors say, it began to emit long and mournful cries. The performance was repeated on succeeding days and irate neighbors came to city hall to register protest. Action by the health and building departments followed.

Patriotism Taught by Telling
 Lies, IS Dr. RusseN's Statement
Criticizes Historical Stor- ies Such as That of George Washington and the Cherry Tree.

Hartford, Aug. IT RS-"It looks to me as though we teach patriot ism mostly by telling lies, such as that of George Washington and the cherry tree" said Dr. William F :. Russell of New York today in ad- dressing a meeting of school super intendents and state supervisors fin the Old Senate chamber of the cap- itol. Dr. Russell, who is associate di- rector of the International Institute, Teachers College, was speaking on the psychological answer to the question What Constitutes a Good School?"
 Dr. Russell made his remark while dealing with the attempt to teach honor and patriotism to the child. He advocates the wearing of school uniforms by pupils in the in- terest of democracy, stating that many girls drop out of school and out of the state universities of the middle west because they can't dress as well as their friends"
 Dr. Russell said that every coun- try had an educationay system akin to it's national characteristics. And then he added: Tt is the supposedly defeated nations that are the most progressive in matters of education"
 Dr. Russell said that in latin America few leaders are developed at the expense of the masses. He said that in many places there was a feeling that democracy is soc cologically unsound. According to Dr. Russell every American educator should strive to pertuade democracy.
 T think there is more dearly equal opportunity in education in America than anywhere else in the world. At the same time I do not think we have equal opportunity by any means, continued Dr. Russell.
 We say we have a free public school system open to all. So is Palm Beach itself, free and open to who can get to it." he said.
 The bombardment of schools by various organizations and societies, such as the American Legion, was touched upon, with many groups trying to get things into the schools and others trying to get religion and evolution out of the schools, we are kept busy"

 While his underworld friends plotted to liberate him and his ene- mics schemed to take his life, Me Neil was whisked away secretly last night under heavy guard.
 Since Friday the bank robber had been hidden in an outlying police station because of the uncovering of a plan to storm the county jail or battle officers to free him. Late yes terday police hurried McNeil into court to be sentenced. Then, disclos- ing that his enemies, fearing that he would incriminate them, had placed a price of $2,000 on his head, the officers made a swift change of plans and rushed McNeil overnight to Waupun.
 For two years McNeil eluded po- lice. Captured at Superior and brought here recently, he pleaded guilty to the robbery but steadfastly refused to reveal his companions in the crime.
 If l had stuck to stud poker this never would have happened" he told officers. Some gunmen told me what a soft job bank robbery was. I fell into the wrong company. didn't need gun in stud poker. It was easier than that"

AS they enter ed the inlet, young White offered to bail out the tender boat which was half swamped by the heavy seas The youth managed 10 climb into the tender and was busily engaged in bailing the water out of 1t when the storm came up and snapped the tow line.

JUDGE INDIGNANT AT
 WITNESS STAND LIES
Sends Couple With Seven Children to County
 Jail

Attorney Donald Gaffney entered a plea of not guilty for Marker and Mary Marzbanian of 63 Lafayette street, charged in police court today with violation of the liquor laws on two counts. Detective Sergeant Ellinger and Sergeant O'Mara seiz- ed quantity of mash, home made liquor and bottles at their home on Saturday. August z. Sergeant O'Mara said the couple have been convicted before and have been warned since.
 They told the sergeant, he said, that the husband is too old to do manual labor and selling home made liquor for $1 Q pint is their onH means of support.
 On tle witness stand, the hus- band denied having sold liquor since being convicted. He uses it for an external rub mostly and takes it in formally once in a while. He has worked only a few months in the past two years and has seven chil- dren to support.
 In reply to Judge Alling, he ad- mitted he does not know his age. Last year he gave the police his age as 50 years and now he said he believes he is 55 or 57 years of age.
 Judge filling told him he need not try to tell him he has not been selling liquor. What were you do- ing with 100 gallons of mash? What do you do, take a bath in it every day?" the judge asked. If you don't stop making liquor and selling 1t, I'll give you a steady job," he continued, and you won't get any pay for it, either. And I don't mean to stop for one year and start again. You're pretty lucky this morning. That's all"
 Mrs. Marzbanian said her bus band uses the liquor to rub on his back. Judge filling interrupted her at once and warned her that he would send her to jail for perjury if she did not tell the truth about the case. She insisted that no li- quor has been sold at their home since they were convicted.
 Asked by Mir. Greenstein to ex- plain the presence of the mash in her home, she said the liquor was made six months ago and the mash six weeks ago. He also asked her why the liquor is in pint bottles if nobody but her husband uses it. ThG reply was that the pint bottles are lighter and easier to handle. She denied having told Sergeants Ell inger and OMara she sold the li- quor for $1 pint.
 Attorney Gaffney asked that the co :ple be allowed probation. They would be unable to pay fine. and If sent to jail, their seven children would become public charges, he pointed out.
 Judge filling said the accused couple have not only been selling liquor but they come into court and 1eny having told the police they sold 1t. Apparently the city sooner or later must take care of the chill lren and the start may as well be made now" he continued. Thirty avs in jail each,"

NEW HAVEN ROAD WINS
 RIGHT TO BUILD DAM
Injunction Against Mianus River Project Dissolved
 by Judge Banks

Bridgeport, Conn.,, Aug. IT tP) - The temporary injunction against the New Haven railroad to prevent it from constructing a dam on the Mianus river at Greenwich which was secured last month by the Greenwich Water company, was dissolved today by Judge John w. Banks in superior court
 According to Judge Banks deci- sion the New Haven railroad may now proceed with the building of the dam.
 Judge Banks in his decision says that he cannot see how the Green wich Water company will in any way be affected by the dam, since the dam is being erected on the lower river and the water company owns the upper reaches of the stream, and adds that further set clement of the controversy be- tween the two interests must be settled later by court action.
 Judge Banks further suggests that the corporations involved might be able to settle their diffi- culties out of court.
 Judge Banks says: T am unable to see how the plaintiffs rights will be affected"
 He then points out that all the land where the dam is located and the land that will be flooded by the dam is owned by the railroad and that the dam will not lessen the flow of water in the property owned by the Water company and that because the railroad company has already spent large sums of money on the work he permits 1t to go ahead with the construction of the dam.

HEAVY BOND DEBT
 DELAYS CITY JOB
City Owes Too Much Money to
 Build Broad St. Sewer
SITUATION UNPRECEDENTED
Relief in Broad Street Area Would Merely shift Difficulty to Zone Where Costs Would Exceed Bonding Limits.

So close is the city to the limit of its bonding privileges that no relief can be afforded Broad street prop erty owners who have complained of inadequate storm water sewer fla cilities, until the city pays off some of it's existing debts.
 This information became known today. As far as can be determined this is the first time an important city project had to be delayed be- cause the city was too heavily in debt to finance it through the usual procedure. Capital investments, of which sewer systems are examples, are paid for out Of bond moneys. In recent years there has been a dispo- sition on the part of the city govern ment 10 adopt the deferred payment plan on numerous projects and while the city's notes were issued for some, bonds were sold to pay for others. Members of the board of finance and taxation recently voted a bond issue to pay for an altera- tion job-the Smith school renoya- ton.
 The Broad street system is one of the tributaries of the Main street and Hartford avenue main lines. If only the complained of area is re. lieved it will merely shift the diff Culty to either Main street or Hart ford avenue and from the stand point of the general city welfare no relief will be had, according to the public works board. Extension of the entire system appears to be the only relief in sight and this, City Engineer Joseph D. Williams has estimated, would require a greater amount than the difference between the ex- isting bonded indebtedness and the five per cent bonding limit imposed on municipalities by the legislature.
