By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The applications of Harry F. Sin
clair and others for reversal of their
convictions for contempt of court on
charges of jury shadowin1 in the Fall
Sinclair Teapot Dome ill conspiracy
case, were taken under consideration
today by the District of Columbia Court
Of Appeals.
Martin Littleton Of the oil mans
counsel closed the appeal with the
assertion that the incident which
brought about mistrial and which
centered about Edward j. Kidwell, the
juror quoted as saying he expected to
get a car "as long as block" was the
only contempt in the case.
In addition to Sinclair, who was SEN
fenced to six months in jail, H. Mason
Day, an associate, is under sentence of
four months. William j. Burns, detec-
tive, was sentenced to Is days, and his
son, w. Sherman Burns, was fined
$1,000.
Neil Burkinshaw, assistant district at
torney, who closed argument for the
Government, said that If jury shadow
ing was sanctioned by the courts, it
would leave dangerous instrumental
ity In the hands Of the wealthy" He
said it was not a case of plain shadow
ing on the part of Burns detectives, but
included contact with neighbors and
relatives Of the jurors.

Infatuated at his unreasonable atti-

L|NDBERGH. STAYS
WITH NAVAL. FLEET
Reported Trip to Colombia
Comes as Surprise to
Panama Officials.
b. the Associated Press.

By the Associated FreSS.
PANAMA CITY, Panama, February
3-Col Charles A. Lindbergh was still
with the United States feet out in the
Bay OF Panama this morning, and there
was no information available as to when
he would undertake the good will flight
to Bogota, Colombia, which was an
nounced by the United States Postal
Department in Washington last night.
j. D. MacGregor, vice president of
the Pan-American Always, said that
the colonel was expected to return to-
day from the fleet. He has been guest
aboard the airplane carrier Saratoga,
and has been watching practice ma
neuvers of the Navy Aviation Corps in
connection with tactical rehearsals by
the fleet as whole. Mr.. MacGregor
said that he had not heard of the pro-
posed flight to Colombia, and he re-
marked that 1t was not part of the
original plans for Lindbergh's trip here.
The announcement by w. Irving
Glover, Assistant Postmaster General at
Washington in charge of aviation, that
Lindbergh would carry mails on his re-
turn flight from Panama to the United
States caused considerable activity in
Canal Zone postal circles. The Pana-
man government put special stamps on
sale this morning, and there was big
demand for them by people who wished
to send missives to the United States
on a machine piloted by the famous
aviator.

Guayaquil to act personally as host to
the goodwill mission, and had super

made to receive the visitors. A ma
tional holiday had been proclaimed,
Minister Bading disclosed.
A warm midday sun was beating down

nosed her way nearer to EcuadOr's

climate in contrast to the balmy atno-
sphere which prevails over the high in

Two distinct mountain ranges, or cor

Lindbergh Will Pay Second Visit ID
Colombia.

Colombia.
Reports yesterday from the post office
at Cristobal, Panama, disclosed that
100000 pieces of mail are ready for
Col. Lindbergh to fly back to the United
States, although the take-off Is not
scheduled until Sunday.
Assistant Postmaster General Glover
late yesterday denied rumors that mail
would not be carried on the coloneps
return fight, and at the same time
made known the amount of mail await
ing him in Panama.
The Post ONCE Department, however,
has ruled that Lindbergh will carry
back only mail originating In the Canal
Zone and this may cut down the cargo
to be transported on the flight from the
amount now at the post Office.
Between now and Sunday, Col. Lind
bergh will make another of his noted
goodwill flights to Colombia to pay a
compliment to that country for the
flight made to the United States last
year by one of its flyers, Lieut.. Nendez
Post Office officials yesterday express
ed qualification over the report that
Colombia has granted permission for
the entrance of United States mail.
Heretofore that government has banned
the aviation activities of other countries
from its boundaries because the COM
plete concession of air services Is held
by a German concern in Colombia.
Lindbergh will leave Cristobal this
morning and viii make a 600-mile
fight over tropical jungles to reach
Bogota, the Colombian capital, to-
night and will return to Panama to-
morrow.

| MAN is GIVEN TERM
ON TEACHERS CHARGE
| She Claims He Had Annoyed Her
for Months by His Persistent
Attentions.

Lawrence Wilson, So years old, of the
1000 block of Park road, was fined S25
and given 80 days in Jail today on q
charge Of ,disorderly conduct preferred
by Miss Blanche Philpitt, 24-year-old
school teacher, who declared that the
man had annoyed her for many months
by his persistent attentions. Following
her in his machine, accosting her on
the street and attempting to force her
to marry him, he became unbearable,
she declared, causing her to make a
complaint.
Letters which he is said to have
written to the young woman were ex-
hibited In court and Judge Robert E..
Mattingly declared that the Language
contained in them was extremely i'm
proper.
Wilson denied the charge and said
that he had written the letters in self
defense. A minister of the church
which Miss Philpitt attends gave a
sermon on the "Prodigal Son." he de-
clared and he believed that the clergy
man was referring to him.
When arrested last night he intimated
that he would attempt to persuade the
judge to marry Miss Philpitt and him
when they met in court, according to
police.

delivered to postal authorities in order

TWILIGHT SLEEP"
PRACTICE PLANNED
Room to Be Equipped at George.
town University Hospital for
Extensive Treatment.

A new room for administration of the
twilight sleep" treatment is one of the
chief features Of the extensively
equipped maternity department which
Is part of the newest and largest
building of Georgetown University Hos
pital, 1t was announced last night at
the annual dinner of the Georgetown
Clinical Society at the Mayfower Hotel
by President w. Coleman Nevis, s. j.,
of the university.
The twilight sleep" treatment will be
under direction Of an especially trained
personnel, 1t is announced. Because of
the long and difficult attention neces-
Sary Tor the patients, twilight Sleep
has not been generally practiced in hos
pitfalls, though DR.. Prentiss Wilson, chief
OF obstetrics at the hospital, introduced
it at Georgetown Hospital is years ago,
The treatment had been long since
abandoned, but with the new facilities
now available in the new maternity
ward it will be resumed on an extern
sive scale.
President Nevis described the new
maternity ward as the finest equipped
of any hospital in Washington" 1t
will be opened early next week.
This department will have accommo-
dations for total of rs patients and
there is room for future expansion. The
medical regent, Rev. Walter G. Sum-
mers, s. j., says it will do much to
relieve need in Washington for great
er accommodations for maternity cases.
In view of the contemplated removal
Of Georgetown Hospital to a site ad-
joining the new medical and dental
school building now being erected on
Reservoir road, the hospital authorities
had the equipment of the maternity de.
partment installed in such manner
that it can easily be transferred.
Other branches Of the hospital also
are being expanded.
