WHITTEMORE SEEMS RESIGNED ID DEATH
Lawyer Will Make Final Effort
 to Postpone Execution

Baltimore, Aug. 10 P,-A last chance of life was before Richard Reese Whittemore today. The man who is scheduled to die on the gall lows Friday for the murder of Robert H. Hoffman, Maryland penitentiary guard, took little stock in it, and appeared resigned to the end.
 Whittemore signed the necessary papers for an application for a writ of habeas corpus expressing his opinion that it would do no good. :" The application, presented by ne- gro lawyer who h& entered the case independent of Whutemore's coun- sel, won from Judge Robert F. Stanton in city court show cause order for the writ, returnable at noon tomorrow. The order was served on state authorities last night.
 With only 36 hours between the hearing on the writ and the time set for Whittemore's execution, G. l.. Pendelton, negro attorney, has announced his intention of seeking a stay from Governor Albert c. Ritchie or from justice of the United States supreme court if the writ is not granted. Legal authori- ties were skeptical that Judge Stan ton could do otherwise than refuse the writ. Pendleton said he had To- 5cated Justice Louis D. Brandeis at Chatham, Mass, and had outlined the case to a Chatham attorney, who would present it to Justice Brandeis if necessary.
 Whittemore has shown no signs of breaking under the death house

We haven't heard the sta tion come through so loud since last fall when fans were experiencing a run of good luck, Sometime after midnight we tuned in again and we heard dance music. The orchestra, was well placed and the station sounded as clear as WTIC, although not quite so loud of course.
 The far-famed Silver Slipper or chestra, one of the hottest bands of the air today, played "Mooning Around" from WPG, Atlantic City. We don't have to make any cracks about the volume of WPG. All you have to do when you want to bring it in is to tune to the proper wave length. It doesn't make any differ ence whether or not the set is turned on. Just tune in. Thassall. Clark's Hawaiians, the delegation that used to be heard from WBZ, presented variety of dreamy mum bers.
 
 WSAI. Cincinnati, came in with all the volume of WBZ, and with much clarity. The Harmony Four orchestra, a slick outfit, made the most of it's allotted time and we were treated to some excellent dance music. There was nothing subdued about WSAI. "No Foolin'" was one of the numbers. We went back to the station several times, but made no note of other numbers
 
 Even WEAF, New York, was in spired, and you must admit that it takes considerable to inspire that station, which generally whispers it's programs quite tantahzingly. Well, it wasn't whisper last night; it was a yell. The Palais Dor orches- tra, presented as the last two num- bers of the evenings offering, Gypsy Love Song" and MY Dream of The Big Parade" That last num- Der, is acquiring considerable popu- larity, it seems.
 That's Why Love" was one of the numbers played as an organ solo from WNAC, Boston, at midnight. The organ was that in the Metro politan theater and the station came through very loud, in common with others.
 WLW. Cincinnati, was another station that came through very loud and exceedingly clear. A classical program was being presented by an orchestra, but We didn't stay very long. s
 We ran around the dials for some

The Burritt Junior baseball team took the Willow Brook club into camp last week by 15 to score, After the, first inning in which Bur ritts scored eight runs, there was never any doubt as to the outcome. Zielincki and Janskinis- pounded out three baggers with the bases load ed. Zielinski also featured with some fine catches in the field. The score:

held at Oxnard, in competition with
boys under fourteen from all sections

place in vocal contest. All boys
with whom he competed had the adj
vantage in having had more or less
vocal training, while Erwin had had
none. He was selected by the music
teacher of the public schools of Ven
tura to represent four grades and
competed with nine others. The song
by each of them was Somewhere a
Voice Is Calling. Erwin has also
been asked to sing at public dinner
of the Lions Club.
