 In the meantime the recording Of the Bible is to be done by the Eng fish dramatic actor Henry Ainley. He has already recorded a short story which was reproduced through loud speaker with extraordinary fdelity-all the light and shade of the actors diction coming through like the living voice. Ainley hopes to do Shakespeare and the great poets.
 The speaking book is only one of the many uses to which the in vention has been put. There is an inexpensive system for use with talkies, and dictating machine with several novel features.

ROBERTSON

CANON CITY, Colo, Oct. IA. -
The first hanging at the Colorado
penitentiary since the bloody mutiny
of ten days ago is scheduled for this
week. Prison officials dread the
event as the unrest apparent before
the riot has recurred, and the con-
victS are in ominous mood.
A new hangman must be selected
to send Eddie Ives, murderer of a
Denver patrolman and a NegresS, to
death. j. E. EeleS, hangman for
many years, was one Of the guards
slain by convicts during the out
burst that cost thirteen lives and
$500,000 property damage.
Ives, wizened burglar, who shot
down the officer and the Negress
in speakeaSy while crazed with
liquor, was in the death cell today,
awaiting the final act in the states
retribution for his thirty years of
crime.
Governor William H. Adams, who
never has granted executive clem-
ency to convict during his two
terms in office, has conferred daily
with Warden F. Eugene Crawford
regarding Ives case. This action
was believed prompted by the un-
rest among the prisoners.

Fourteen Coffin precinct commit
teemen are holding jobs in the In
dianapolis school system, it was
disclosed today by Phil zoercher of
the state tax board.
The number reported thus allied
has been as high as forty-nine, but
difficulties were experienced in
checking both the committeeman
and the school employees, it was said.
Zoercher's list was Haunted as an
exhibit showing the definite link
between the present school board

1t was brought forward as the
state board set the final tax rate for
the indianapolis school city at $102.
The school board had asked rate
Of $134. The amount set is the
rate prevailing at present.
Plight of the schools was stressed
by zoercher in making public the
list of petty politicians
Politicians Should Resign
"These men either should resign
as precinct committeeman, or forfeit
their jobs" he declared. "They
can not serve two masters. The
schools are not supposed to be-
stepped in politics. To do their duty
to the schools and their party in
such a capacity, is impossible.
1T was intended to have a nom
political city government in Indian
apolis, but the court ruled that out.
No city manager law was necessary
to free the schools from politics.
That was supposed to have been
done under the law creating the
school city.
Presence of these committeeman
demonstrates that it has not been
accomplished. Certainly such a Sit
uation indicates that the present
management of the schools has not
the right ideals"
Repair Fund Cut
The committeeman listed by Zoer-
cher and the jobs they hold were
as follows:
Janitors: D. G. Burns, School II;
Samuel Parker and George Boo

Macdonald to See Niagara

NEW YORK. Oct. 14.-Premier
Ramsay Macdonald of England
turned his footsteps northward to-
day for a visit to one of the great
dominions of the British empire be-
fore returning to his home land.
Thousands here. their imagina-

peace mission and by the sparkle

Central train, bound for the Cana

The Grand Central station was
packed with incoming commuters
and with other thousands to bid
him adieu. With his daughter
Ishbel, and party, he set forth with
Niagara falls as his immediate
destination. After spending the
night there, Macdonald plunges
into Canada, with Ottawa, Toronto
and Montreal his detectives prior
to Oct. 25, the date on which he
sails aboard the Duchess of York
for England.
The Macdonald party went to the
station through a lane of humanity.
The path was cleared by police.
Within the vast station, too, a great
throng watched for his passing.
The premier was refreshed by his
weekend in the Connecticut coun-
tryside.
AT the Cottage by the Pond" at
Westport. Conn, the estate of Lii
Ian D. Wald, charity worker, he and
his daughter passed pleasant Sab
bath, resting from their strenuous
round of official and personal visits
in the capital and metropolis. The
scene was a bit reminiscent of the
English countryside, a cottage by q
pond, set off by rich flower gardens.
Macdonald climbed an apple tree
and tossed apples to his daughter
and went padding in canoe, which
got stuck on a mudflat. A detective
accompanying the party, waded into
Miss Wald's pond to free the pre-

Defense to Open Today in
Trial of Theater Man for
Alleged Assault on Young
Dancer.

BW United Press
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 14.-Alexan-
der Pantages' contention that the
assault charge brought against him
by 17-year- Eunice Pringle,
dancer, was a "frameup" to blk
him, was expected to dominate the
first defense testimony, scheduled
for today.
Some twenty witnesses, chief of
them the 54-year-old millionaire
theater man, have been lnarshaled
by his attorneys. Pantages prob
ably will be first. He is expected to
testify that soon after he sold his
theater circuit for $2000O,OO0, Miss
Pringle approached him in the hall
way Of his Los Angeles theater, fol-
lowed him into consultation room.
and then disarranged their clothing
and began to scream.
Before Sunmoning the theater
man, defense attorneys we're ex-
pected to renew cross SS-examination
OF a states witness, Tillie Russo,
pretty usherette, who testified that
her former employer coached her in
the story she was to tell regarding
what took place the day Miss
Pringle claims Pantages attacked
her.
The state planned to follow cross
examination of Miss Russo with
questioning of few witnesses
whose testimony would take only a
short time. The most important of
these, prosecution attorneys said,
would be Wilma Williams, who was
passing through the building when
the young dancer screamed. Ply
sicians then would tell Of their ex-
animation of Miss Pringle.
If the defense calls twenty wit
nesses, the case probably will not
be given to the jury of six men and
six women before a week from
Wednesday.

HOOVER TO SEE GAME
Victory Today viii Give

World Title. e.
BY FRANK GETTY
United Press Sports Editor

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 14-The
1929 world series. which reached its
climax during the spectacular sew
enth-inning rally of the Phila-
delphia Athletics in the fourth
game, may be ended here this aft
ernoon. Out in front, three games
to one, the American League cham
pions needed but one more victory
over the Chicago Cubs to become
champions of the world
President Hoover announced his
intention of attending today's game,
but he certainly had less doubt over
the outcome of this decisive game
of the October engagement than
he had regarding the Republican
nomination in 1928
Ideal baseball weather is promised
for todays game. Fair and mild,
with fresh west winds was the fore
cast. Topcoats and wraps may not
be amiss at Shibe park, however,
for the day promises to be slightly
cooler than Saturday.
The betting odds were to l that
the Athletics would win this after
noon, and 20 to l that they would
win the series, no matter how long
it lasted.
Seventh Inning Feature
Joe Mccarthy Of the Cubs picked
Pat Malone to do the hurting for
the Bruins and Mack picked How
ard Ehrnke at game time Ehmke's
selection came as a surprise.
Whatever happens from now on,
the high spot of the series is bound
to be the seventh inning of the
fourth game. in which the Athletics
scored ten runs and took all the
heart out of the Cubs. Before the
American League champions cut
loose Saturday. no team ever had
scored more than eight runs in one
inning during a world series game.
In Strategic Position
There has been no stopping these
Athletics. They came from far be-
hind to win the fourth game and
crush their rivals Anyone who
thinks they will not continue to do
so can write his own ticket.
The Mackmen are in a strategic
position as far as mathematics are
concerned. More than that, they
have all the confidence bred of
their great rally which won the
fourth game. while the Cubs only
have the memories of a procession
of American League base runners,
going around and around.
