need new BIDS
ON AUDITORIUM
New Call Must Be Issued,
Due to Technically.

New bids for construction of a
new Arsenal Technical high school
auditorium at cost of approx
mately $215,O0O, will be received by
the indianapolis school board, as re-
suit of q technically which Tuesday
night caused rejection of bids re-
ceived last week.
The board, last year, included
100000 for the auditorium in a
proposed S450,000 bond issue of
which $25O,OOO was for two new
wings
The State tax board permitted
construction Of the wings and
agreed to construction Of the audi
forum later, without readvertising
of intention of issuing bonds, which
the board has found illegal.
AS result. the board must an
nounce intention of issuing bonds
and later readvertise for new bids.
Appointment of three teachers for
the remainder of the school year
by Superintendent Charles F. Miller
was approved. They are Grace
Gass and Frances Gilley, elementary
teachers, and Maxine Clark, Broad
Ripple high school.
Board members were to visit sew
eral sites suggested as grade school
sites this afternoon.
Action on reconsideration Of dis
missal of three assistant superin-
tendents. whose positions were abol-
iShed last November, was delayed.

HASBROUCK HEIGHTS, N. j.,
May 9.-Lieut. Royal v. Thomas,
who set a new endurance record
for solo airplane flights week ago,
and Vaughn Weatherly, aeronautical
engineer, we're killed today when
the Bellanca airplane in which
they we're making speed test,
crashed on the grounds Of the
Teterboro Golf Club.
Thomas, member Of the Reserve
Flying Corps of the Army. was one
of the outstanding pilots in the East.
His solo endurance record, eclipsing
Col Charles A. Lindbergh's, was
made over Long Island while at
tempting to take the world endur-
ance record away from George
Haldeman and Eddie Stinson.
Thomas and Weatherly had taken
off from Teterboro Airport, across
the highway from the golf club.
They we're flying low in the same
plane in which Thomas had set his
solo record, when the plane turned
over several times, as in a barrel
roll, and then plunged down.
1t struck the earth tail first. The
bodies of the two fiiers we're crushed
and officials from the airport ex-
perienced difficulty extricating them
from the wreckage.

PEKIN, China, May 9.-Des-
ultory fighting continued today
between the Chinese Nationalist
army and the Japanese expedition
airy force at Tsinan-Fu with adj
vices here stating that the Ma
tionalists had evacuated the occupied
zone.
Casualties were said to be small,
in advices from the Japanese wire
less.
Much of the operations we're be-
lieved to be from snipers, who have
been reported active in the last
forty-eight hours in the stricken
territory.
Earlier unconflrmed reports said
the Japanese were in an isolated
and extremely precarious position.
They were weary after twepty-one
hours OF fighting, the reports said,
and 1t was found difficult to move
reinforcements in to aid the bond Of
5000 eXpeditionary troops.
Railway Reported Cut
Nationalist were reported to have
cut the Tsinan- TSingtao railroad
near Minchui, thus preventing the
japanese troop movement from the
port of Tsingtao.
Through the night Tsinan-Fu was
reported to have been in darkness,
as the electric plant of the city had
been destroyed.
Other advices here said that
Japanese troops were moving on
Tsinan-Fu. Major General Iwakura
was reported advancing with
mixed brigade from Tsingtao, while
$500 additional troops and two
airplanes were reported to have left
Dairen Monday and were due at
Tsinan-Fu today.
Every indication here reported the
situation at Tsinan-Fu becoming
more and more tense. Late develop
ments included:
Japanese seizure of the Tsingtao-
Tsinan railroad, which Gen. Chang
Kai Shek had needed for his north
ern advance toward Pekin.
Barracks BLOWN Up
Japanese destroyed the Chinese
barracks with explosives.
The Chinese forces started
counter offensive when japanese
general forces issued an ultimatum
demanding the Nationalist forces
evacuate Tsinan-Fu an6 a zone
seven miles on each side of the i'm
po-tant Tsingtao railroad.
Military observers declared seizure
of the railroad by the Japanese
described officially as necessary
aggression against offensive meas
ures-as virtual declaration Of
war.
Reports here that Gen. Chang
Kai Shek was losing control of his
Nationalist armies, so intent were
the Chinese on attacking the ia
panese eXpeditionary troops.
Another Clash Reported
Advices were that another en-
gagement had broken out between
Japanese and Chinese at Kaomi,
forty miles west of Tsingtao. There
were believed to be 1900 Japanese
troops there and the Nationalist
soldiers we're said to be not in uni
form.
The latest engagements in Shan
tung province, if recent adviceS are
correct, now have lasted more than
thirty hours. Early reports here In
Dictated that Japanese losses had
not been great, but Japanese SOL
diers said number Of civilians had
been killed and that many houses
had been looted.

eigners in Tsinan-Fu, with the ex-
ception of the Japanese, were safe
