Severed HEAD OF
DOG KEPT ALIVE
Soviet Scientists in an
Amazing Experiment

Continued from Page One
an intricate apparatus of steel and
rubber-which pumped blood to the
dogs head.
This artificial circulation of blood,
which opens new vistas to the sci
entific world, is one of the expert
ments by which biologists and ply
sicians of the Soviet Union expect
to establish the possibility of resur-
recting dead organisms. 1t was con-

The artificial heart. then was at

and blood was sent coursing through
the head that seemed completely
dead. Immediately there were signs
of life. Full consciousness, however
did not return until the effects Of
the anesthetic wore off.
Thereafter the head responded tc
the slightest touch. The reaction to
pain or annoyance was so strong as
nearly to wrench the head from the
mechanism that wasA keeping il

whether the head actually feels

Workers Families
Out Into SnOwstOrm

CHICAGO, Nov. 10 UH.-Twelve
families were driven out into Chi
cago's first snowstorm of the win
ter today, when fire broke out in
the basement of an apartment build
ing on the south side.
The fire mounted through the
three-story building rapidly and the
families were forced to stand in the
snowstorm while firemen brought
the blaze under control.
The weather here has been un-
usually balmy for this time of year,
today's snow ending period of
warmth which reached to record
proportions for November. The
snow probably will continue all day,

Embezzlement Charges
Returned Against New
Hampshire State Sec'y

CONCORD. N. H., Nov. 10. (UP).
Hobart Pillsbury. former secre-
tary of state of New Hampshire,
was bound over to the April term Of
Merrimack County Superior Court
today when he appeared before
municipal judge William L. Stevens
on an embezzlement charge.
Pillsbury, who resigned as secre-
tary of state after the charge had
been preferred on the eve Of the re-
cent election, is charged specifically
with the transportation Of $134.
He has admitted. however, that the
total amount of the discrepancy
probably would he nearer $1,000, and
investigators believe it may run con-
siderably higher.
An audit Of Pillsbury's books has
not been completed.

FASCIST PRIEST
SHOT IN FRANCE
Try to Frame Many

PARIS, Nov. ia priest, &C.
sare Caravadossi, a fascist propa-
gandist in close touch with the Ital-
ian authorities, was shot last night
in the little industrial town of Joeuf,
in the heart of the steel and coal
section of Lorraine. The authorities
are trying to fasten the response
bility for the shooting upon Com
munist workers.
More than $4,000 Italian workers
are employed in the mines and steel
works of Lorraine, of whom about
5000 live in Joeuf. The priests
fascist activities aroused great in
dignation among the workers, many
Of whom are Communists and anti
fascists.
Last year the priest took 1000
Italian boys, born in Lorraine, on a
50-day tour thru Italy, where he
succeeded in instilling enough pro-
paganda into them to force them to
join the fascist "Balilla" upon their
return to Lorraine.

STRIKERS WILL
CONTINUE FIGHT
DESPITE ACTION
Union Will Appeal the
Case

An Injunction "pendente lite" re-
straining members of the Window
Cleaners Protective Union, Local s,
1b East 3rd St., member Of the
American Federation of Labor, from
picketing buildings where non-union
window cleaners are being employed
by an outside window cleaning COM
pany, was granted Friday by Judge
Tierney sitting in the supreme court,
part /. The injunction was applied
for by the Spanier Window Cleaning
Company, SO Barclay St., whose
workers, members of the union, are
on strike.
The company charged that violent
tactics were being employed against
strikebreakers; that in picketing
buildings where the work was being
performed, owners of these buildings
chose to break their agreements with
the company rather than give the
public the idea that they were em-
ploying non-union help.
Tribune's Fake Sympathy.
The buildings which were being
picketed by the union were: Tribune
Building, Transportation Building,
Wadsworth Building and the Insur-
ance Center Building.
In handing down his decision
Judge Tierney said:
81 think that the defendants
should be restrained from picketing
the places owned by the plaintiffs
customers. The placards carried by
the pickets bear the name of the
plaintiffs customers and it is clear
that the object Of this is to coerce
the customers in preaching their
contracts with the plaintiff.
Fake Charge Quashed. .
"The owners of the Tribune Build
ing publish a newspaper in the city
of New York, and they do not wish
to give the impression that the Her
ald-Tribune is engaged in any labor
dispute.
81 am inclined to disregard the
one instance of an assault alleged
to have been made on one of the
plaintiffs employees.
Motion granted to the extent that
the defendant and each of them are
restrained from picketing or carry
ing placards in front of premises
occupied by plaintiffs customers"
In commenting on this decision
Harry Feinstein, secretary of the
striking union said:
Courts Tools of Bosses.
"This injunction is glaring and
fragrant abuse of the injunctive re-
lief. 1t is brazen in that it prevents
peaceful picketing and candidly ad-
mits that there was no violence Of
any kind. 1t is at this point that
corts become the instruments and
tools of the bosses.
at is known that picketing must
take place at the place of employ
nnent of the workers. Despite this
the prejudiced injunction was grant
ed. We will combat this injunction
with all the power at our command
Jacques Buitenkant, 225 West 34th
ST.. attorney for the union said:
"This injunction is contrary to all
established principles of law on the
question of peaceful picketing. Judge
Tierney cited no decision in support
Of his finding" Buitenkant stated
that the union would appeal the case
to the appellate division to stay any
acts in nl1rsuant to the Injunction.

Jury Trying Bank
Officials Fails To
Arrive At Verdict

PHOENIX, Feb 6 P)-Failing to
arrive at a verdict after more than
40 hours OF deliberation, a jury trying
Paul H. Deming, former cashier or
the Bank Of Jerome, on a charge
Of permitting the receipt OF deposit
when the bank was insolvent, was
discharged by Superior Judge M. T.
Phelps at 2 o'clock this afternoon.
The case has been reset for trial
March 20.
The case was given to The jury
at 6:15 o'clock Saturday evening, after
a trial which lasted four days. Re-
called to the courtroom Sunday night,
the jurors stated that they we're
unable to agree and requested that
the court instructions be reread.
AS a result OF <:le jury c.smissal,
Deming is still facing two charges
in connection with the closing of the
Bank of Jerome in September, 1925.
'ihe second complaint charges him
with the receipt Of a deposit with
knowledge that the bank was insolv-
ent. Both charges are contained in
direct informations filed by the
YaVapai county attorney.

FOOTBALL RULE MAKERS CLARITY
But Do NOT CHANGE 1927 RULES

NEW YORK, Feb. 6 R-Three i'm
portant changes in the gridiron code
for 1928, each designed to correct
abuses of confusion growing out of
the previous rules rather than to ef-
feet fundamental alteration, were
announced today by the national foot
ball rules committee, after a secret
weekend meeting.
In q nutshell thcy remove a good
share Of the protection afforded the
lateral or backward passes, do away
with the confusing distinction between
a muffed or fumbled punt and deal
blow to use OF the so-called screen
pass" They provide:
Cd That a backward or lateral pass
must be tossed at least two yards to
be classed as such and that it may be
recovered by the defensive side if
grounded but not advanced, thus do
ing away with the protection afforded
under the rules last year to hidden
ball and other triCss passes behind the
i3crimmage line.
CD That either a muff or tumble
Of punt may be recovered by the
kicking side, but not advanced beyond
! IIle pOluJ Ol recovery
90 That no player on the side max
ing forward pass and who has
crossed the l1lie of scrimmage may in
terfere with an opponent, until the
ball has been touched, thereby doing
away with what the committee be-
lieves has been unfair blocking and
checking, to screen the pass receiver,
by players who themselves are not
eligible to receive the pass
These were the only changes ef-
fected by the rules committee, which
in it's weekend session at the Sea-
view golf club at Absecon, N. j., re-
jected such other suggested altera-
tions as return of the goal posts to
the actual goal line. The committee
went on record as declaring they had
never seen a season Of better foot
ball." than under the 1927 rules.
Two of three changes made, those
affecting the lateral pass and muffed
punt, represented compromise with
the opinion of majority of college
football coaches, who at their De-
cember meeting, went on record as
favoring a return to the 1926 code
on these points.
y. The new lateral pass rule probably
will have the most decided effect,
since it eliminates from protection
the short passes between ball car
riers in close line plays and gives a
definite yardstick by which officials
may determine their decisions. At
the same time in the opinion of the
committee, it retains a sufficient
measure of protection to encourage the
continued development of backward
passing as a real strategic feature of
the offense.
The formal wording of the new rule
provides that ION any such pass (other
than a pass from the snapper back
which is clearly thrown distance of
approximately two yards through the
air and not merely handed to or to-
wards another player, the ball, if it
hits the ground, is a. free ball, but is
dead at the point of recovery, count
ing down if recovered by the pass
ing side"
One of the moot questions of the
1927 season was the determination

LALLY LEADS AT
HALF WAY MARK
In TEXAS GOLF

WILLOW SPRING GOLF CLUB,
SAN ANTONIO, Texas, Feb. Q9-~
Tom Lally, a reformed port side
golfer from San Antonio, stole lap
on the Texas open golf field here
today and moved into first place at
the half way mark with an aggregate
of l44 for the first Sc holes OF the
72 hole tournament.
Harry Cooper, OF Buffalo, N. Y,
shot the best score OF the day,
sparkling 20, to move into second
place with an aggregate of las and
Bobby Cruickshank, of Purchase, N.
Y, and Horton Smith, of Joplin, Mo-,
were tied with 149 strokes each.
Tommy Armour, OF Washington, D.
c., and Bill MehIhorn, Of Pittsburgh,
each had 1905.
Ed Dudley. of Hollywood, Cal,
whose 72 yesterday led the field, had
rough going today, taking one over
par on the first nine and finding
numerous roads, bitches and creeks
on the back nine to go an additional
seven strokes over perfect figures.
This gave him Isl strokes.
Lally improved his 70 of yesterday,
which had put him in second place,
by shooting even par today. Lally,
as a boy in Boston, was left-handed
golTer, but he learned to play them
from the right side years ago and
became pro.
Cooper started out the day by
making brides at the first and third
to be two under par. He slipped at
the eighth to finish the first nine
one up on par At the 18th he
scored another birdie and was two
under, but again went over par at
the 10Th and finished one under.
Horton Smith, who is only l9 years
old, made the turn today two strokes
under par and held this advantage
until the 18th, where he three putted
the green. Trouble at the 18th
evened him with par and on the
next hole he again three putted to-
go one over par.
Sixty-five players, qualified for to-
morrows final 36 holes, Archie Loef-
fled, of San Antonio; James R.
Stonehouse, of Shelbyville Ind, and
James P. Heaney, of Newmarket, N.
j., barely slipping under the wire with
1865. None Of the favcrites was
eliminated.

between a muff or tumble of a punt
but it is met by the simple expedient
of eliminating the necessity of max
ing a distinction. 1t means, the COM
mittee points out. that the kicker's
side may recover any muffed punt
or any ball which may be furnbled
during the course of a run back, but
may not advance the ball beyond the
point of recovery.
The screen" pass, where in the
secondary defense was practically
smothered by forwards of the passers'
side, is dealt virtual death blow by
the third change. Under the former
rules it had become a powerful part
of the attack of many teams. The
effect of the change, the committee
holds, should do away with unfair
blocking and checking of the defense
by players who themselves are not
eligible to receive the pass, leave that
part of the field to which the pass is
directed less congested and give the
eligible players of both teams fair
opportunity to get at the ball"
