Poison Plot Uncovered at
Aurora--TWo Men Con-
TESS Strychnine Trick.
By Bert Demby,

AURORA, ILL.,, May 2S.-Turf fans
of the nation today were shocked
by the expose of a plot in which two
men confessed poisoning four
tllorouehbreds entered in the Illinois
handicap, feature race on Thurs
, days horse racing program at the
Aurora track.
The expose, it was believed, may
endanger the turf sport In this area.
First Indication of the plot came
q few minutes before the horses were
to have been called to the post. A
brief announcement that four OF the
horses were i'll and that the race
had been called off disappointed a
large crowd.
Apology Dies
Before night. one of the horses,
Apology, a 5.year-old mare from the
Kentucky stables of E. e. Sterfett,
died from strychnine. The other
three-Elizabeth K, from Maryland;
Greenwoods, from the stable Of Ter
ry Druggan, notorious Chicago beer
baron. and Sandrae, another Mary
land horse, probably will survive.
Only a few hours after the race
was to have been run, four men were
taken into custody. and after long
grilling, two Of them confessed, nam
ing a fifth man, Earl Clark, as the
brains" Of the conspiracy, which
was to have netted gamblers approx
mately $250,000.
Two Confess
The two who confessed were Earl
Leaver of Toronto, Ontario, and
Charles Davis of Dayton, Ohio. They
admitted feeding the horses humps
of sugar which had been dipped in
strychnine.
Frank Marion of Springfield, Ohio,
and U. s. Young of Charleston, W.
I Va, were the other men held 'by
authorities. Indictments will be
asked against these four and Clark,
animal. This offense, under the ILL
nois law, makes the men liable to
a $1,000 fine. and three years in pris-
on. From copies of kilograms found in
C1ark's abandoned hotel room, au-
therities reached the conclusion the
plot had been organized for the pur-
pose Of allowing Faenza, from the
stable of p. P. Summerfield of Mary
land, to win the handicap.

,Adolescents require more iodine
than older people and are con-

and women are more liable than
men at all times, especially dur.

This distribution of iodine in

There are four methods in use

Besides this, people drink very

there are always a few to whom
an addition of their iodine intake
is harmful. The method Of giving
iodized chocolates or tablets to
school children is used very widely
in America and somewhat less IN

ing results both in prevention and
cure, but it affects only one of the
important ages. Other objections
are that some parents are afraid
of it and, unless it is strictly con-

and dangerous self-drugging by

probably only justifiable in areas
where goitre Is very prevalent.

What is more beautiful in early

Almond nuts are nourishing and

Is delightful and most beneficial
to the complexion.
It is in the oil distilled from
the sweet almond nut, however,
