BANDIT TRAIL WARM
Former Policeman Nabbed
and Pals Sought.

Police today sought three men,
alleged members of a bandit ring,
and pals Of Raymond Fletcher, "a,
former Indianapolis policeman, who
was arrested in Nashville, Ind, Sun
day, in possession of large amount
of burglar tools. A man thought to
be one of the trio was arrested at
his rooming house.
Fletcher was arrested when Dep
uty Sheriff Clarence Moore gave
chase to a speeding auto that passed
through Nashville. He is held there
under high bond. In his auto police
found deadening blankets, explo-
sives as used in safe blowing, whis-
ky, women's clothing and narcotics.
Harry Webster, superintendent Of
the Indiana Bankers Protective As

and Forrest Huntington operatives

given another name.
Webster said he believed Fletcher
is implicated in a ring of safe blow
ers, who have operated in Indian
apolis, Dayton, Ohio, Cincinnati,
Ohio, and Louisville, KY. 1t is be-
lieved robbery was planned at
Louisville, Sunday night

guilty of anti-narcotic act violation.

| reason fo9 its air Of elegant distinc-
ton.
The furniture was shabby and
scattered. The square, high-ceilinged
rooms were rather bare. Yet like
its mistress and the homely maiden
sisters the place had quality"
Nancy was given a pink and gold
striped decanter on round glass
tray. Her grandmother explained
that it had been in the family for
years. Her grandfather had bought
it for her mother when she was en-
gagged.
Nancy cherished this carefully.
She intended to place it on the man
tel in the ''parlor" at home. The fire.
place was false, a hideous arrange
ment of glazed, green tile, as unlike
as possible the broad, white mantels
of the Gage home.
Yet around this sacred heirloom
she would do her best to create an
atmosphere"
She copied nlannerisms of her
grandmother's; lifted her eyebrows
with the weary air she considered
so appealing; shaped her fingernails
to- delicate points which made her
long hands seem even longer and
more slender; cultivated anything
and everything which contributed
to her aristocratic appearance.
She was rewarded by the in
creased affection and approval of
her relatives. The aunts introduced
her fondly as "Silas' little daugh-
tah." Her grandmother spoke of
her as my namesake." And the
night before she returned home she
won an even greater triumph.
There was to be a dance at the
country home of one of the boys.
Nancy, bordering over which of her
two evening gowns to wear, finally
chose the flame-colored one.
1t was as simple as a dress could
be, without a touch of any color,
but it suited her vivid, sparkling
personality better than any gown
she would ever own.
She was permitted to go with the
son of a friend Of the family. He
confided as they sped over the
smooth highway, that there was to
be another guest from out of
town.
Hes visitin' the Larabees," he
explained casually. And now that
I think of it, I believe Jack said he
was from California"

CHICAGO, Sept. 12.-Gene Tun-
hey's temperament--or whatever it
Is that makes million dollar prize
fighters insist on solitude-asserted
itself today and the welcome" mat
at his country estate training camp
was reversed and Keep Out"
painted on the back.
He is going into intensive train
Ing, it was announced, for what dis
respectfully has been called the
second heat" of the heavyweight
championship.
Public Interferes
This intensive training" Tunney
explained, would be markedly inter-
fered with if the public were allowed
to watch him and his sparring part
ners exchange punches. Even news
paper men worry the champion
when he is boxing five or six rounds
IN preparation for boxing ten rounds
iefore 10000 people, it was stated.
Therefore, the newspaper men as
well as the public were ruled out.
The champion gave his last IDOL
iar-a-head" entertainment Sunday
by boxing five rounds with Jackie
Williams and Billy Vidabeck. They
were permitted to hit him any
where they could. except over the
right eye. The territory immediate
ly above that member was bandaged
against a possible mistake on the
part of Williams or Vidabeck and
Williams almost made the mistake.
He succeeded, however, only in
partially removing the bandage. The
cut which caused suspension of
training last week was not opened.
Jack Dempsey's camp still is open
TO newspapermen, technically at
least. But, virtually, all they have
seen of the former champions PROV
ess recently is half-a-dozen rounds
with punching bags.
Just an Accident
Dave Shades black eye was ex-
planned at the Dempsey camp as
having been caused by various mis-
haps known to cause black eyes.
Shade Is there. 1t was admitted, as
a sparring partner, but it was in
sisted he and Dempsey had not
been boxing in private.
1t seemed today, therefore, ones
only chance to say IT saw EN-" and
say it honestly, will be to purchase
one of Tex Richards tickets to Sol
diers' field Sept %, for which
minimum of SIS is charged-no ques-
lions asked or answered.
1t was limited in some quarters
the fight gate may exceed 100000
No definite statistics are available in
any form. 1t is only remotely
known just how many seats there

it appeared most probable they all
will be filled.

could get going in the first contest
Captain George may be the player
to lead that tagging offense of his
teammates in the forthcoming bat
tie. He is rugged player, willing
to take a chance and mix it up
something the British were reluc-

If Captain George and Captain
Denning get off to good start they
might pull the entire British team

New Orleans for the families from
ST. Bernard and Plaquemine parishes,
refugees today from homes which
they left that the Crescent city might
be made safe from the Mississippi
river flood.
The folks in the exodus from the
lower provinces affected by the deci-
sion to cut the Mississippi river levee
at Poydras were quartered in the

FIRST TEXT BOOK
FOR RADIO READY
Stephen B. Davis Completes
Volume on Americas
New Industry.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Radio communication has turned
out to be such a prodigious industrial
infant that the courts and lawyers are
finding it increasingly necessary to
study the statutes affecting it's devel.
opment and control. The first text.
book on the subject was published to.
day, the work of Stephen B. Davs, So
licitor and assistant secretary of the
Commerce Department.
When Secretary Hoover was first
called upon to struggle with the grow
ing pains of the infant he made Davis
chief assistant for the effort. His
book, THE Law of Radio Communica-
tion," is based on the knowledge he
has gained in the three years which
have followed.
Trouble Began in 1922.
When radio was merely a means of
communicating oversee, DaVS' vol
ume points out, there was little con.
troversy and trouble about legal
rights. But when in 1922 people in
general began to get their box scores.
concerts and speeches from it courts
and governments had to come into the
field.
once there, they found some per-
picking barriers functioning. To be-
gin with, there can't be any owner
ship of ether. Davis asserts, even
though it is the channel and surface
upon which the radio waves flow.
Nor can the owner Of property pre-
vent, by court or other action, the
free transmission of the waves across
his properties.
Doubts Federal Ownership.
Nevertheless, government can enter
the field, Davis proceeds, although he
regards national assertion of owner
ship over ether as questionabIy eff.
fective. Manifestly, communicating by
radio constitutes interstate commerce,
he says, and by established precedent
the Federal Government of the United
States can take hold upon anything
of that kind. Further, the states of
the Union have established police
power and radio transmitters and re.
ceivers can be governed as police mat
ters. Finally, every individual has a
right to certain freedom from exac-
tionS and annoyance from other indi-
viduals, whether club or radio loud
speaker is the vehicle for making the
annoyance effective.
Under these three general headings
Davis has assembled series of rul.
ings and principles based on court and
official decisions which express the
body of law as it stands covering radio
communication.
