Condemnation of Three
VentiIating Systems Is
Bitterly ASsaiIed.

A report of the State board of ac-
counts condemning ventilating sys-
TENS in three Indianapolis schools,
made public late Thursday, is "an
open and shut attempt to boost G.
@. Ship and knock his competitors
and to get official support for Ship
after his recent castigation by the
State tax board" william H. Book,
former school business director, de-
clared today.
A special meeting of the school
board to consider the report has
been called for 10 a. m. Saturday.
Book was business director when
the three buildings condemned

School "a and School 46-were built
He now is Chamber of Commerce
civic affairs secretary.
School "a is located at Wade and
Boyd SITS. and School as at Miller
and Reisner SITS.
Condemn Three Systems
The three systems condemned
we're the univent, heatovent anc
ozone systems. Shipp is local
manufacturer of the direct-indirect
system, installed in about 60 pei
cent of the school buildings erected
here in the last sixteen years.
Fred Bates johnson, chairman Of
the school board building and
grounds committee when the three
structures were put up, joined Book
in declaring the report was an at
tempt of Shipp to gain official sup
port for his system.
The heating and ventilating sys-
TENS of the three school were ap-
proved by the State board OF
health, Book pointed out.
a. Approved by Board
The State law requires school
rooms have foul air fumes capable
of Withdrawing used air at the rate
of 1900 cubic feet an hour fol
every 225 cubic feet of school room
space.
The systems at the three build
ings provided only from zero to x
per cent of this outflow, the report
said.
There is not heating and ven
tilating system in any Indianapolis
public school that complies with the
State requirements concerning hui
midity contrel," Earl E. Trickler
district manager of the Buffalo
Forge Company, which installed the
Washington High system, said.
Not even the direct-indirect sys'
TENS, installed by Shipp, have Thu
control. 1 believe the report wa
all right as far as it went, but i
should have included all types, in

fident youth during most Of the

FIRST DEGREE MURDER
INDICTMENT RETURNED
BY JURY AGAINST SKEEN
New True Bill Provides
Greater Penalty in
Jarboe Death.

Carl Skeen, %, butcher, today was
reindicted by the county grand jury
on a first degree murder charge for
the death of Mrs. Pearl Jarboe, "a,
waitress, GA E. North ST., June 10.
Skeen was arrested in Denver
Tuesday night and indicted Wednes-
day on a manslaughter charge.
Manslaughter carries only prison
sentence. Death or life imprison-
ment is the punishment for first
degree murder.
The new indictment charges that
Skeen "purpoSely and with premedi-
tated malice killed Pearl Jarboe by
striking and pushing her from a
motor vehicle"
The indictment was returned soon
after Thomas c. Whallon, attorney
for Skeen, had withdrawn a motion
before Criminal Judge Pro Ten
Frank A. Symmes to prohibit the
prosecutor or police from interview
ing Skeen when he is brought here
from Denver.
Detective Patrick Finneran is ex-
pected back with him Sunday.
The motion was withdrawn when
the prosecutor declared it was not
his custom to grill prisoners and he
had no intention of trying to wiring
a confession from Skeen.
Skeen has admitted to Denver
newspaper men that he drove the
car from which Mrs. Jarboe made
her death plunge, June IS, receiving
q fractured skull from which she
died the following day.
Efforts for speedy justice in the
Jarboe death case are going forward
rapidly at the courthouse. Remy
said he will seek trial at the earli-
est possible date.

He had taken large quantity of

Signs Confession
officers have a written confess
sion, signed by Patterson from his
hospital bed, admitting the STAT, 100
theft. It was taken over the entire
period of his employment, in various
amounts, and the books fixed so
that it would not be revealed, the
officers declare.
Il spent the money on parties"
Patterson told Harry Carig, vice
president of the bank, to whom he
gave the signed confession.
This revelation scarcely Is be-
lieved by his most intimate friends.
A staid bachelor, Patterson had
worked without a vacation during
all the years at the bank. He never
was known to drink, nor to have
fast women friends.
Held Up as Example
Prominent in social and fraternal
circles, he often was held up as an
example to the youth of the city.
His only recreation was to entertain
a few friends, very sedately, at a
river cottage.
When State Bank Examiner T. G..
Inwood and J. A. Parrett were ex-
aiming the books of the bank
Thursday, Patterson protested mild
ly against examination of two
ledgers which he kept. The exam
liners were insistent.
Patterson then fed in fear to his
room at the Houston Hotel and
drank poison.
William E. Dunn is president of
the bank. Although an aged man,
he gained fame some time ago by
sounding an alarm while robbers
faced him with gun.
Barr said that every effort was
being made to protect depoSitors
and save the bank from loss. It is
