 Under average conditions the cruising range of the dirigible when inflated with heiium. and carrying her normal equipment and crew. will be about 12.500 statute miles. at 50 knots, sufficient to take her from the east coast to Hawaii and return.
 At her maximum speed of 80 miles, her radius would be about TOO miles, and if she should be inflated with hydrogen. her radius at 50 knots would be increased to about 1000 miles.

FRANCES WILLIAMS
 WITH POLL PLAYERS
Stars in Great Comedy, "1he
 Cradle SnatCherS"
(By Herald Reviewer)

Frances Williams. the perennial star of the Poli Players, returned to the company at Hartford last night and was given a royal welcome fit for queen-and a queen of virile, clever. brilliant acting she again proved herself. Her first appearance was the signal for salvos of ap- plause and at the end of the second act she was compelled to respond to a curtain call to receive numerous floral testimonials, and she replied with a clever impromptu speech of appreciation.
 The play. "The Cradle Snatchers," might well be termed one of the best if not the best offering of the season thus far. A riotous comedy drama, it breezes along at top speed and so fast and interesting is the ac- ton that the final curtain finds all the women still sitting with their hats in their laps and none Of the more agile youths dodging up the alsles for the exits. Knowing Hart
 
 pede toward the close of a show, this is real tribute to the com pany and its offering.
 Each and every member of the cast does fine in this presentation, but stellar honors go to Miss Will Hams and Vincent Coleman, the lat ter seemingly inspired to new heights of comedy drama work. Briefly. the story concerns three mid dle aged women whose middle aged husbands they find are stepping out a bit with the flappers. Urged on by Miss Williams. these wives engage three college boys as thor personal escorts. hoping to arouse their hus- bands jealousy. The grand blowoff comes when the wives take their youthful companions to the shore home of one of the party for weekend. Scenes of greatest com- cdy.racy bits of conversation that are intriguing but not the least offensive and then the appearance of the hus- bands, themselves bringing three 6l lS Iol d patty Ol lllcli ONu oCLo tiiC stage for the grand climax.
 Robert Perry is one of the college youths. Another is Harry J. Fischer, and Vincent Coleman is a third. h. troduced as a Spanish student study ing osteopathy. he endeavors to give the woman. who hires him what he thinks she wants. His antics impel- sonating the fiery Spaniav1 and Miss Williams responses are side split ting. The other two wives are Patsy Ann O'Neal and Fanny Ray, while the husbands are portrayed by Ed mund Abbey. Walter Scott Weeks and Bernard Steel. Jay Ray is a but Ter and Adrienne Earle has minor part. Three flapper friends of the husbands are Esther Mosley, Lor raine Merrill and Mildred Quigley, the last named of this city. Miss Quigley has quite a bit of speak ing part in one scene and does 1t very well. The usual elaborate stage settings again feature.
 Miss Marion Grant. former lead ing lady, has left the company and given up her stage career to become the bride of A. Albert Sack. Jr.. of Providence. Next week the company presents Stella Dallas with Ruth Lyons as the new leading lady.

Private Graveyard.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
ST. PAUL, Sept. dissolution of
ten murder mysteries was expected
by police today as they continued
questioning Arthur Hanson, con-
fessed killer of James Barrett, who,
in turn, is charged by Hanson with
numbering five men and five women
in eighteen months.
Hanson's story of Barrett's career
as 'bootlegger, and gangster pic
lures him as villain Of a cold
blooded ferocity beyond the most
fantastic imagination of the authors
of "dime thrillers."
Barrett and Hanson engaged in
an argument after the last of the
shootings, according to Hanson, and
both reached for their guns. The
shooting occurred on a lonely road
in the country. Barrett shot FIRST,
but Hanson shot straighter and
killed his adversary.
The murder over which the ar
gumentl occurred was the killing of
Barrett's wife and her sister, Lillian
Kooser. Hanson was arrested in
connection with the crime in Chi
cago and brought here. His, con-
fession followed.
Barrett boosted to me that he
had killed SO many people he would
need a private graveyard to bury
them in," Hanson said.

CITY SANITARY
BOARD PLANNED
MaCFalI Says Mccullough Is
Expected to Make Saw
ing in Operation.

No immeGwiate shifts in sanitary
board departmental heads or en-
ployes are contemplated as a re-
suit of the appointment of Erwin
w. McCull ough as general super
intendent Of operation and mainte-
nance, Russell T. MacFall, board
president, said today.
The $G,000-a-year post was created
by the majority faction board
members Tuesday over protest of
o. c. Ross.
A resolution adopted By MacFall
ard City Engineer Paul r. Brown
provides that Mccullough Survey
all departments for the purpose of
reorganization to provide most
Economical and efficient operation
and maintenance"
The appointment of Mccullough
follows factional fights. Several
sanitary department employees ex-
pressed the viey that the appoint
ment of Mccullough will mean
the ak for several"
81 believe he will save three or
four times his salary in purchasing
supplies for all departments jointly
Politics had nothing to do with the
Mccullough appointment" Mac
Fall said.
Retention of Mccullough on the
sanitary pay roll was made necessary
by contract with the Sims Milling
Company, Frankfort, which agreed
to buy feed from the garbage plant
for $21.65 a ton, he said. Mccullough
had received $4,000 yearly since 1923
during construction of the garbage
plant. He designed the garbage re-
duction plant and holds a patent
on the Mccullough process, for
making feed.
MacFall said the Sims company
had asked to assign their agree
ment to another company which
agreed on the condition Mccullough
be retained three years.
The contract retaining McCul-
Tough, dating from June 16 is ex-
pected to be signed Thursday.
Meanwhile several car loads of
feed have accumulated since August
because it does not contain the
proper elements specified on toys
More crude fiber than provided in
the contract is contained in the feed
which led 20 the assignment of the
agreement by the Sims firm, Nc
Fall said. EfacFall said the feed is
"salable," as soon as new tags are
printed.
City Engineer Brown said he felt
the departments could be operated
more efficiently under one head.
