SURGERY MAY
REFORM YOUTH
Convicted Bandit Given
Parole After Operation.

Whether Emmett Brownlee, IS,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Johns S. Brown
lee, 1853 Eugene ST.. will be COM
PEELED to serve the balance of the
time on his two prison sentences
ranging from one to fourteen years
for vehicle taking and auto banditry
depends on the findings of physi-
clans during his thirty days of tenn
porary freedom following surgical
treatment.
Criminal tendencies in the youth
are attributed by DR.. Albert E.
Sterne and Attorney Sumner A,
Clancy to an accident two years ago
when he was thrown from an auto
mobile, his head striking an iron
trolley pole resulting in fractured
skull
Dating from that time the boy
showed evidences of great listless-
ness and inertia; and he soon be-
came intimate with a group of
youths exhibiting criminal tenden-
cieS.
Following his conviction Sept. 80,
1926, he was examined by DR..
Sterne who pronounced an opera
ton Immediately necessary.
A short temporary parole was
granted for the operation, which
was to relieve pressure on the fore
part of Brownlee'S brain.
Great change in the entire char
-acter and behavious of the boy was
noted following his recovery; and
DR.. Sterne and Attorney Clancy
have succeeded in prevailing on
Governor Ed Jackson to parole
Brownlee for thirty days, in the
custody of his favor, so that Sterne
and allied physicians will have an
opportunity of closely observing his
actions to determine whether he has
been cured.

do the new Fords come in boxes
like that?" asked a curbstone joke
ster of one of the Ford dealers, who
came out of an all-day regional
conference at the assembly plant,
1915 E. Washington ST., Friday aft
ernoon, balancing on his shoulder a
45-pound cardboard carton of adver-
Using matter.
That's forty-f1ve pounds of en-
thuSiaSm," the dealer grinned, try
ling to find the best way to handle a
package four feet long, three feet
wide and six inches thick.
Two hundred and twenty Ford
dealers, covering all of Indiana ex-
cepting northern-most counties, and
nine counties in Illinois, lined up to
hear their names called and to re-
ceive their burdens with an eager
ness born in six months waiting.
Price Is Kept Secret
These dealers, with associates
swelling their number to more than
300, had just seen and inspected the
new Ford car in the shape OF q
glistening Tudor sedan, had heard
specifications cited and production
described, and in fact learned all
about the new Ford line, excepting
price-to them and to the public.
This they will learn Simultaneous
ly with the public in the course of
the coming week when newspaper
and magazine advertisements will
herald first public display of the new
models in all agencies in the United
States, Canada and England on FRI
day, Dec. 2.
The same secrecy that has
shrouded Henry FordS development
and recent production of the new
models persisted about the confer
ence here.
ooh Boy! It's a Dandy"
"Oh boy!" and tits dandy"
were the enthusiastic CALCULATIONS
from some fifteen or twenty dealers,
who stepped outside the assembly
building Friday noon when the
luncheon tables were overcrowded.
The five tons of literature logged
home by dealers will not be spread
before the public gaze until next
week, and then, bit by bit, as
directed in the booklet included in
their surprise packages"
Pledged to secrecy anent deScrip-
ton and specifications of the new
car, dealers were left free, however,
to speculate on prices. Most Of
them anticipate little if any increase
in prices from those prevailing
when production on 1927 models
was suspended last spring. At that
time factory prices were: runabout,
$3.50; touring, $3.50; coupe, $4S5;
tudor sedan, $495 and four door
sedan, $545, without extra equip
ment.
Entire New Car
Some of the dealers have talked,
revealing the following about the
new car:
1t will be entirely unlike the
present model.
One feature, at least-the four
wheel brakes-was designed by Ford
in his private workshop.
The motor will have a slightly
larger cubic inch displacement. En-
titling it to rating Of twenty-three
horsepower. 1t will develop forty
10 tr,Ha%
brake test.
A speed of sixty miles an hour will
be possible.
The transmission band gear shift
now used ONLY by Ford-will give
way to a modern, three-speeds-a
reverse lever gear shift.
The ignition system will be mod
ernized with an overhead distribu-
ton.
