ACCUSED OF MURDER
IN MOONSHINE RAID
Warrant Out for Deputy Sheriff for
Fatal Shooting at Alleged
Rum Plant.

PENSACOLA, Fla, March 3o.-A
warrant charging Barney Virgins,
Baldwin County, Ala, deputy sheriff.
with second degree murder in connec-
ton with the fatal shooting Of Monroe
Foster, following liquor raid in Escam-
bia County, Fla. several days ago, was
issued here last night by County Solici-
tor william Fisher.
Issuance OF the warrant followed an
investigation into the shooting, which
occurred after moonshine raid In
which Virgins and prohibition agents
from the Mobile Office participated.
Foster died in Baldwin County after
being shot in Florida at spot not far
from the State line.
A question of jurisdiction of the new
Jones bill will probably be applied in
this case. Under State laws prohibition
violations were only misdemeanors in
Florida, though they were held as

provides that dry law attractions are
felonies in every State. the county solic-
itor said. II hte Jones bill is invoked,
he asserted, it may be decided that the
officer who shot Foster had the law on
his side. If not, and 1t is ruled that
the old Alabama law was in force, the
officer was still within his rights, but If
the Florida Interpretation holds, the
officer who shot Foster can be prose-
cuted for murder.

YOUTHFUL DAVIS CUP TEAM 10 MEET CANADA

American Zone Play Will Open To-

 With Crocker.
 Montreal.eMay 1s R-with John Van Ryn. of East Orange, N. J.. showing the way, the youthful anl somewhat experimental Davis Cup team of the United States meets the Canadian team today in the opening of the American zone Davis Cup play. Van Ryn, meets Willard Crocker of Montreal in the first singles match this afternoon.
 The second match brings toseth- CT the No. 1 players of the two teams. John Hennessey of Indiana polls. and Dr. Jack Wright of Mon- treal. The second set of singles matches. which will be played Sat- urday, pit Van Ryn against Wright and Hennessey against Crocker. The lineups for Fridays doubles sn- counter still are m an uncertain tate with several possibilities for each team.
 The results of yesterdays draw were considered as strongly favor ing the United States. The Canadian opinion was that the matching of Van Ryn with Crocker proba ably will send the American team of to a flying start toward the three match victories necessary to reach the sec- ond round tie with Japan. It is be- lieved that Wright. clearly the best of the Canadian players would have much better chance against the former Princeton captain than against the more experienced Hem nessey.

Fun Yesterday and Today

MOT all the foibles of youthful
femininity have been developed In
the current period, when 1t is quite
popular to give the girls a rap for this
or that which their mothers and their
grandmothers are said never to have
done before them.
1t is quite true that the modern girl
Is new creation and there Is little If
any doubt that she Is an admirable one.
Her frankness, often condemned as a
fault by those, perhaps. who are more
familiar with the methods of conceal
ment is really one of her finest traits.
She has an Independence. too. that has
not wholly led her into trouble, but in
reality has resulted In quite an improve
ment in her strength of character, q
virtue always ,extolled whenever 1t APP
pears. She seldom does things on the
sly, but rather risks the shock caused
by her daring and then boldly sits up
and defends 1t admirably In most
instances.
But the girl of today is not wholly an
original, Rather Is she development
of the girls who have preceded her and,
IN her own opinion, at least, II not In
the opinion universal, she is stronger
In health, sturdier of body, and indeed
a general improvement upon the girls
who have preceded her.
Manager Steve Cochran, in addition
to his many. other qualifications as a
caterer of entertainment that the public
wants, is also an experimental In psy-
chology; and in the current weeks at
traction to be presented by his National
Theater Players. he has unearthed
comedy that once set audiences laugh
ing heartily and kept them at 1t until
the show was over. It's author, Sam
Janney, had uppermost In mind when
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-06-16

! he wrote his satire, loose Ankles not
| so much the young happer Of his day as
| her elderly predecessor, the girl whose
brown or raven tresSes were beginning
to show ttnges of gray, and who. like
women always, from time immemorial,
waged bitter war with the years that
robbed her OF youth and sought to stave
on the day of her ultimate retirement
from the pleasures of this world.
Mr.. Janney took advantage of the
fact that some of these battling pleasure
lovers were known, In the absence of
the real article, to surreptitiously hire
young men to pose as their sweethearts,
without the slightest thought of anna
tory attentions, but in taking them to
the theater and especially to dances,
for, like the girl of today, the girls that
preceded her were every bit as fond of
the delights of dancing as she is.
But Mr.. Janney, also sensing the
years ahead and their progress In the
development of the feminine Juvenile,
plucked out of the future so to speak.
the girl of today, with her independence
and daring and blended some of her
traits into the older girl to meet the
demands of his play plot and make his
audiences laugh the more heartily. He
succeeded admirably and the fact that
Loose Angles" Is still able to attract
capacity theatrical audiences with this
blend of the old and the new girl is evi-
dence Of the wisdom that inspired his
play and, by the same token, also evt-
dence that Manager Cochran Is q
psychological picker when it comes to
entertainment the public likes.
It might be added also that loose
Ankles Is likely to provide world of
knowledge to the girl of today Of the
tricks that used 70 be familiar to mother
and grandma In the days gone by.
