Explosion Set Off Under

EAST MILTON, Mass, Aug. 49,
A bomb exploded at one side of the
home of Lewis McHardy, one OF
the jurors at the Sacco-Vanzetti
trial, at about $3.50 a. m. today. No
one was injured.
In the house at the time were
Mr.. and Mrs. McHardy and their
three children, Helen, John and
Theodore.
Mr.. and Mrs. McHardy and two
sons, John, 90, and Theodore, "a
and a daughter, Helen, 80, were
assisted from the wrecked building
by neighbors.
The blast caused houses to trem-
BILE for more than a,1nile around.
According to Police Chief James
r. Travers of Milton the time bomb
had been concealed beneath the
front porch.
Following the explosion part of
the mechanism of the internal ma
chine was found on the front lawn.
The parents and their daughter
were sleeping in second-fioor bed
rooms when the bomb exploded
while the two sons were asleep on
the top floor Of the two-and-a-half-
story residence.
Chief Travers believed any one
sleeping on the ground floor would
have met almost certain death.
The blast demolished the front OF
the buildings, the sides of which
partially collapsed, throwing debris
into many of the rooms.
A garage in the rear of the house
was virtually wrecked.
Today's bombing was the second
attributed to Sacco-Vanzetti SYM
pathizers in Massachusetts. On
June /, 1926, a bomb wrecked the
West Bridgewater home Of Samuel
johnson, brother-in-law OF Mrs
Simon Johnson, who collected the
reward in 1920 for the apprehension
of Sacco and Vanzetti. The john
son home was demolished and six
persons slightly hurt.

COURTHOUSE, BOSTON, Aug.
16.-With four of the Massachusetts
Supreme Court justices on the
bench, attorneys for Nicola Sacco
and Bartolomeo Vanzetti appeared
today in new move to block the
executions scheduled for next Tues
day.
The hearing, with new trial as
the defense goal, was on exceptions
from Justice Sanderson's denial of
motions for a writ Of error and
from Trial Judge Webster Thayer's
denial OF motions for new trial,
revocation Of sentence and stay of
execution.
1.-THE prejudice of the judge seems
to us to be the foundation of the
case before this court today
Arthur d. Hill, chief defense
counsel, told the court.
Action of Judge Thayer, both in
and out of the courtroom indicates
strong prejudice against the de-
fendanCs and the class to which
they belong"
