noticed the similarity to that broad
cast of Ewing.
Detectives Stages and Mangus
questioned Jones at Plainfield and
at the same time Lawrence County
authorities reported the car found
south of Bedford. 1t was unscratched
and bore no stains or other evidence
Of its occupants having been at
tackled while in the car. Plainfield
authorities have returned the car
to Jones today.
The Joneses said when they last
saw Ewing, late Saturday afternoon,
he was wearing gray and black
moleskin cotton trousers, a brown
coat and ca black cap. He is as
years old, weighs 210 pounds, is six
feet one inch tall, and has a small
mole on each cheek just below the
eye. His hair is close cropped.
The stolen car was found Monday
and Constable Urban Bowman Of
Plainfield, sent by Marshal @. r.
Franklin to return it, brought it
back to Plainfied Monday evening.
CarburetOr Stalls Car
The authorities found that the
car had stalled because of a defec-
tive carburetor adjustment, proving
that Ewing did not desert it volun-
tarily. After the carburetor was ad-
justed, the auto was driven home
under its own power.
Ewing's picture, from the police
Bertillon room, was positively iden-
titled by Jones as that of the man he
had given employment.
Smooth -Tongued Talker
From Jones story, police had new
evidence of the peculiar persuasive
ness that has characterized Ewings
activities. He used it to blind his
first wife, Mrs. Mary Day Ewing,
to his intentions of abandoning her
when he wooed and married Miss
Burgess.
1t won for him a job when his
Plainfield employer had serious mis-
givings about him, and it enabled
him to induce his second wife and
her stepfather to accompanying him
on the tragic auto trip to Green
field on the pretext that a Green
field attorney was preparing papers
for annulling his marriage to Boyle's
stepdaughter.
Detective Chief Claude F. johnson
today continued to put all detectives
available on the case. Search for
Ewing Is concentrated in the south
ern end of the State, although au-
thorities throughout the country
have been asked to keep a sharp
lookout for him.
Horsethief detectives continued a
careful watch over the Melvin Day
home at McCordsville, where Ew-
ing's first wife and their 4-year-old
son. Robert, live with her parents.
May Have Been In City
While detectives were establish
ing that Ewing fled southwark, re-
ports came to police that a man
answering his description was in
Indianapolis.
"A man nttlng the description was
refused an auto because he could
not give references when he made
application to the U-Drive Indian
apolis Company, 1870 E. New York
St., Tuesday afternoon. Fred How
son, day manager, told police he
had not seen Ewing's picture until
after the man appeared seeking a
car, but that he noticed the re-
semblance when he saw newspaper
photographs.
A bread wagon driver called police
headquarters at $50 a. m. today.
saying a man he believed to be

Gay Performance
"Sensat .ons Of 1927" is described
as a scintlllating and gay perform
ance. 1t is in IL brilliant scenes, all
OF which are examples of the spec
tacular. charming and novel effects
that may be obtained by the blending
Of light .ng and harmonic color.
Last year this performance made
such tremendous hit or the road
that reports Of it began to storm the
desks OF dramatic editors everywhere.
Carlton Miles Of The Minneapolis
Journal kept hearing Of it regularly,
and finally. when it came to Winonx,
he made special trip to that city
to look it over. After viewing it, he
wrote a long favorable criticism for
The Sunday Journal. This review in
part follows:
Charles Georges Sensations OF
1927 is as neat and wcll-staged a
revue as one would wish to see. 1t
has more entertainment value per
scene than the road editions Of
Broadway revues that travel this
way the second season out Of New
York; 1t has ideas, a certain con-
tinuity and some good comedy scenes,
most of them longer than the brief
skits with which revues are now
adorned. George has written some
flowing music, with his Poppy song
the most strikino and his Smile
song which carries a haunting melody.
