While playing his piano concertos in public
Beethoven would often beat time with the or

candle for him was struck full in the face as the
composer waved hand at the orchestra. The
audience howled with laughter

While Beethoven's music is filled with grace
full and charming rhythms, he was unable to
dance in time. He took dancing lessons to over
come this, but he could not master the funda-
mentals of the art. He always remained clumsy
in the ballroom.

MAYS LANDING, y. j., December
1O.-Mrs. Margaret Lilliendahl and
Willis Beach, convicted of killing the
woman's aged husband, were sen
fenced today to 10 years in state
prison by a judge who believed they
should have been given either the
death penalty or at least life impris
onment.
Beyond question" Justice Camp
Dell said when the prisoners were ar
raigned before him for sentence, TINS
crime was murder in the first degree.
But since some of the jurors would
not agree to such verdict and as the
compromise verdict of voluntary man

F'inP Not Imposed.
The greatest penalty possible for a
manslaughter verdict is 10 years i'm
prisonment at hard Labor or other
wise" and a fine of $1,000. Justice
Campbell did not impose the fine hut
he did stipulate that the sentences
should he served at hard labor.
Beach md Mrs. Lnhendahl were
tried on an indictment charging first
degree murder. for which the penalty
is death or life imprisonment at the
jury's discretion.
Beach. who is IS years old, heard
the verdict without a culver Of ms

fell forward on the counsel table and
sobbed convulsively. As they were
led back TO their cells, the woman was
moaning ooh. | don't want to, l don I

in the twisted sneer that characterized
him throughout the trial.
New Trial Plea.
Defense counsel had announced that
before sentence today they would
move for a new trial on the basis Of
evidence involving two negroes. when

Justice Campbell ordered that when
such an application was ready. it he
presented to him and said that he

from today.
Before that time, the prisoners will
have begun their terms in the State

indicated today they may remain here

CITIZENS ATTACK
POLICE ACTIVITIES
Mount Pleasant Residents
Assert Force Spends Time
Trailing Unlicensed Dogs.

Criticism of the police department
and street lighting occupied the at
tention of the Mount Pleasant Citi-
ZenS' Association at its meeting IN
Mount Pleasant Branch Library last
night. The recent activities of Wash
ineton's most famous burglar led to
a demand for better lighting and this
in turn led to some irOnic references
to police activities.
Taking their cue from the complaint
of the lighting committee that there
was insufficient illumination in parts
of Mount Pleasant to discourage the
burglar. several members arose and
gave examples of their failure to OBJ
serve policemen engaged in any activ-
ity except the capture of unlicensed
dogs.
Ru!e Book Is Missing.
President A. n Holcombe insisted
that the discussion had eclipsed the
lighting problem but said that as long
as they were discussing the police
he had found tag in his car for a
traffic violation and had gone to the
second precinct station to ask about
1t, and was unable to find copy OF
the traffic regulations in the place.
Charles f. ConSaul suggested thai
since the police didn't seem to know
anything about the geography of the
section, it might he good idea tC

The recurring battleship aircraft
fight was brought to the attention OF
the Navy Department yesterday In
charges made by the Aero Digest, an
aircraft publication. that news OF the
successful use of a new bomb develop
cd by the Bureau of Aeronautics had
been suppressed by Secretary Wilbur
and old line naval officers.
Mr. Wibur's only comment was
that the editorial was 'the first he
had heard about it," but Rear Admiral
Monett, chief of the Bureau of Aero
uautics. said that such bomb had
been developed and that experiments
had been successful"
The Digest charged that this
triumph of aircraft over watercraft
was carefully suppressed. 1t said
that the experimental bombing took
place at the Navy bombing grounds
"Off the capes' during the week Of
October II, and that from an air
craft bombing standpoint, the prac-
tiCe was an enormous success"
