PONDS ARE DRAGGED
FOR BODY OF CADDY
Police Believes Missing Boy May
Have Been Slain as Result of
Jealousy Over Tips.
B. the Associated Press.

CHICAGO. October 10.--Ponds near
the Skokie and Bob-o'-Link Country
Clubs are being dragged by country
police on theory that Teddy Franks,
15-year-old caddy. who disappeared a
week ago, may have been slain.
Police. who were at first skeptical
of a murder theory, started their
search after questioning more than
a dozen ,2other caddies, the boys
mother and several others.
Teddy was one of the most popular
caddies working the Skokie, Bob-o'.
Link and Sunset Ridge courses. He
received larger tips than many of the
other boys, the police were told, which
may have aroused jealousy among
certain element of the caddies.
One rival caddy. Arthur Orsi, was
arrested on a charge of making
threats and released on bond. Two
other caddies told police that Orsi had
warned the missing boy to stay
away" from the Bob-o' Link Club.

JUGOSLAV-BULGAR
DANGER IS AVERTED
Belgrade Accepts Apology at
BeheSt of British and
French Diplomats.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

Bv Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily
News. Copyright, 1927.
LONDON, October 10.-The danger
of conflict between Jugoslavia and
Bulgaria over the murder of a Serbian
general in q small frontier town is
considered averted. thanks to the
prompt action of British and French
diplomatic representatives at Sofia
and Belgrade.
1t looked at first as though the
Jugoslav government would be unable
to control the temper of the army and
would be forced to take hasty action
which would endanger the peace OF
Eastern Europe. But the conciliatory
counsels of Foreign Minister Bria nd,
coupled with the fact that the mill
tary preparations of Jugoslavia will
not be completed until 1880. when
that country hopes to be able to fight
simultaneously on the eastern and
western fronts, decided the Belgrade
government to adopt a reasonable at
titude, accept Bulgaria'c apologies
and promise to proclaim martial law
in the border districts to cope with
the activities of the Comitadjis.
Macedonian Bands Strong.
Bulgarian diplomats in London.
however, point out that it Is practi-
cally impossible for the country to
dissolve the powerful Macedonian or
ganiZations. Under the peace treaty
of Neuilly, Bulgaria was allowed an
army of 10000 men, which is spread
over the entire territory, policing the
Turkish, Rumanian, Jugoslav and
Greek borders. as well as the interior
of the country, where the Mace
domains are endeavoring to cause
trouble.
Not more than 5000 men can be
spared for the Jugoslav frontier. The
Macedonian comitadjis number at
least $4,000 well organized and equip
ped men. Fighting has been their
principal occupation for years. They
have funds enough to purchase arms
and ammunition in sufficient quanti-
ties to carry on guerrilla warfare.
Consequently. as long as Bulgaria's
neighbors insist on the country being
disarmed it will be impossible for the
government to deal effectively with
that powerful secret organiZat ation.
Cabinet Faces Dangers.
If the administration takes too
drastic measures, it is likely that the
premier and his ministers may be
assassinated. The King and the Off
cial government are simply tolera ted
by the Macedonians as long as they
do not interfere with the plans of the
comitadji leaders. Should they prove
troublesome they can be put away
overnight.
Bulgarian diplomats in Paris and
London are trying to convince the
Western powers of the necessity of
allowing Bulgaria to increase her
regular army. at least to so. 900, men
Otherwise the comitadjis will be able
to stir up trouble at any time. thus
endangering the peace of the Balkans
and possibly that of all Europe.

NORMAL PREPARATIONS"

BERLIN. October 10.-The German

be negotiating an agreement whereby
Germany will be excused from paying
more than normal reparations"
after 1923 should the general pros
perity index, as is foreseen in the
Dawes plan, be favorable.
The idea would seem to be that Ger.
many might now make some conces-

would never again be brought INTO

sible to calculate the exact limit of
reparations which could be reached
Both the German government and

Red-Winged Rlackbirds.

The way in which animals have
learned to adjust themselves to man
is indeed truly marvellous. 1t arises,

instinct for self preservation, but there
is something more to it than instinct.
Every day see the redwinged black
birds, even the meadoWlarks, swallows,
and marsh Wrens attack crows and
even a small hawk which prowl too
near. With cries of rage they berate
the intruders, swoop at them in fierce
little sallies that drive the DULLES
away.

thoughts were back with Tom. She
knew now that she loved him. But
If only he would be more practical.
With his talent, he ought to be max.
ing much more money. What he needed
was some one to look out for him.
From the way he had looked at her,

she only imagine IL? No, she rather
| felt that he did. But he was
dreamer. and liked to drift. He wanted
to do only the things that interested
him and not the things that made
money.
How different he was from Duncan
Malcolm. who usually employed her
for three DAYS at a time. One saw
MalcoIms work everywhere. in every
magazine that could afford to pay
his prices.
When she posed for Duncan Nal.
colin, everything was very business
like. IF she wore street dress in the
illustration, she merely removed her
hat and coat and Duncan told her
enough about the story to give her an
idea of the pose. If she were to pose
in evening dress. she went behind
screen to change. But they started
work Immediately. There was no pre-
liminary conversation. Duncan Nal
colin made every minute Of the time
she was posing for him count. And
it was so with most Of the artists.
Yet Tom Elliott had appealed to her
ina gination. Perhaps he had ap-
pealed to the maternal in her. At
any rate, she yearned over him. and
felt close to him. She loved their
funny tea parties. and sometimes
their sketchy lunches.
When she reached home. II was
after 6. She decided not To go out.
She had eggs in the house and could
make an omelet. It was going to be
another of those nights when she
would be forced to go to bed with q

And then she realized that she
hadn't gone to the library to ex-

to read. She hesitated. on the point
Of going out to the newsstand for
some magazines. when she decided
that after dinner would be time
enough.
Some one was coming downstairs,
and as the stairs were narrow, she
pressed against the wall. She didn't
look to see who it was, and so she
was startled when some one spoke
to her.
It was Martin Lee!

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Thursday, July IA.


Many unfavorable aspects are seen
by astrologers in tomorrow configu-
ration. which reveals strongly menac-
ing signs.
Again farmers are to register dis
content which may affect political
plans. the seers foretell.
Added power for all who till the soil
is indicated, for increase of food prices
will inspire political action.
The rule is not a fortunate one for
persons in high office, since envy and
jealousy may develop enemies where
friends were formerly counted.
Astrologers remind the public that
they warned Of plots and dangerous
activities on the part Of Russia and
Soviet leaders Immediately after the
World War.
Under this direction of the stars
there may be undue stress put upon
race consciousness. The sway is sup
posed to encourage pride and preiu-
dice.
The rule tomorrow is not a bene-
fetal one for women, who will find
later. the seers declare, that they are
going through period OF preparation
for public service.
For the Pacific Coast there is the
augury Of events that focus national
attention and bring to it's cities men
and women of world prominence.
Prophecy that certain cities and
towns would be destroyed by fires or
floods. made by astrologers. is to be
proved even more convincingIy than ii
has been in the Spring disaster, the
seers foreteIl.
Persons whose birth date it Is may
have unusual temptation in the com.
ing year. and they should be most
cautious.
Children born on that day may be
too good-natured and easy-going for
their own good. They are likely to be
exceedingly charming and talented.
