two children, was convicted on
charges of illegal possession of
intoxicating liquor by a jury be.
fore Justice Peyton Gordon late

was withheld when counsel for
the woman announced that a
motion for a new trial would be
filed.
The woman was indicted on
counts of possession and sale as
the result Of q raid by the vice
squad October Is, 1923, prior to
passage of the Jones law. The
present trial was under the Vol
stead act. The jury found her
guilty on the possession charge

SCHOOL SHIFT

The war between school patrons
and the Board Of Education broke
out in another section last night
when the Sixteenth Street Heights
Citizens Association protested the
closing of enc of the portable at
Sixteenth Street and Kalmia
Road Northwest and transfer Of
six pupils to Takoma School, q
mile away.
There were 81 children attend
ing the portable, and the Is who
were not transferred we're ordered
to attend the other portable at
the site. School authorities ex-
planned that the change was
made because the enrolment did
not justify keeping both portables
open.
A resolution asking that the
Board Of Education require all
pupils residing in the section
from the first to the fourth
grades, inclusive, to attend the
portable. vas adopted. This, the
association believes. would in
crease the enrolment sufficiently
to justify keeping 10th portables
open. The resolution also EN-.
bodied "a plan to canvass the
parents Of the neighborhood on
the matter.
A second resolution requested
the Board Of Education not to
move the portable until investiga-
ton is made. while a third denied
newspaper statements that the
parents Of the children had ac-
cepted the change.

FRAUD VERDICT
NOT GUILTY

Justice William Hitz in Grim
inal Court yesterday directed a YER
dict of not guilty as to Warren
T. Godfrey, lawyer Of Louisville,
KY, who is being tried with three
others on a four-year-old indict-
ment charging conspiracy to use
the mails to defraud in con
nection with an alleged front
money game"
The acts set out in the indict-
ment occurred six years ago and
a fifth defendant, Fred A. Dolph,
who was O. local attorney, has
since died. The other defend
ants, Frederick E. Lewis, Of New
Haven, Conn.,, former secretary.
treasurer of the s. B. Thayer Son
and Company of this city; Ed
ward Fell Lukens, a Philadelphia
attorney, and Butler Kellogg, Of
New York City, were unsucceSS-
full in obtaining directed verdicts
and their fate win probably be
placed in the hands Of the jury
this afternoon.
Attorney Matt J. Holt, Of
Louisville, filed the motion for
the directed verdict for Godfrey
contending that the Government
had not made out q case against
his client. Assistant United
States Attorney John w. Fihelly
argued the case of the Govern
ment before the jury in connec-
ton with the other three defend
ants this morning and Attorneys
James s. Easby-Smith for Lukens,
Harry N. Connaughton for Kel-
logg and Joseph D. Kelly for
Lewis are expected to conclude
their arguments late this after
noon.
The Government alleges that
the defendants solicited o mum
ber of business firms to finance
their businesses through the
Thayer Company and the latter
was in no position to handle the
re-financing although the defend
ants are said to have collected
advance fees and commissions
from their clients.

HOLLYWOOD, August 5 CN.A.N.A),
Hollywood was busy yesterday morn
ing watching the progress of diplomatic
relations between Gloria Swanson and

or not Gloria will remain a marquise
or If the crown will pass to Constance
Bennett, who has been engaged to the
charming marquis, who is not yet dis
engaged matrimonially. (We're funny
like that here)
Well, to make a long story short,
Henri de la Falaise is making poised
and gallant statements worthy of a
Bayard regarding the future of himself
and Gloria Swanson.
at will be as Miss Swanson wishes, y
says Henri in manner absolutely sans
peur ct sans reproche."
And Gloria is diScreetly silent, be-
yond the statement she made last week
that she hoped Henri wouldn't want a
divorce"
But, seeing that Henri'S gallant state
ments are being made to the press from
a hotel suite and Goria's dramatic 81
lence is being staged at her Malibu
Beach house, a mere Goldfish might guess
by inference just how diplomatic the
relations are.

plays a lamentable inconsistency in de-

that Doug and Mary returned home

thought him of note to leave one OF
