Nye committees and for more de- | tailed account of statements that his wife had been shadowed and that she had been the recipient recently l of 'weird' telephone messages. The hint in the Dannenberg testi- mony that Mrs. Mccormick, whose primary campaign expenditures have been under investigation by the con- mittee, suspected the committee it. self knew something about the cir cumstances responsible for his charges was vigorously denied by | Senator Gerald P. Nye of North Da- kota, committee chairman, and Sen ator Porter H. Dale of Vermont.
 Issues No Charges Dannenberg uttered no charges against Senator Nye, but made no secret of the fact that he was in vestigating the North Dakota senator at the request of Mrs. Mccormick, republican candidate for United States senator. Mrs. Mccormick | yesterday in a statement declared she was investigating the investi- gators.' and demanded to know: What is Senator Nye going to do about it?'
 Dannenberg said Mrs. Mccormick | and himself had decided that the | Investigating committee or someone | representing themselves as such, had | had Mrs. Mccormick shadowed. The | fact that her office was broken into 1 and robbed of certain papers, and that her telephone wires were tapped led her to undertake an investiga- ton of her own, he said, to find out whether Senator Nye was the sort of person who would authorize the sort of investigation she was being subjected to-"
 Investigators of the detective agency were sent into Senator Yves home state to interview various per- sons concerning the senator, it was disclosed,

 Guarded Booths Prison

 Former Railroad Conductor

 THREE; 1 MAY DIE

Plainville and Drs. George F. Cook and Lawrence H. Frost responded. They gave first aid, setting tourni- quets on Pavano's arms to stop the flow of blood. They then ordered the three sent to the Bristol hospital. All three remained conscious.
 Parts of bone, flesh and clothing were strewn all about the place. Pieces of Pavano's trousers were hurled more than 50 feet away, and both shoes were torn from his feet. Their caps were flung far from the spot.
 "Carelessness" Blamed W. J. Lobdell, grandfather of one of the injured youths, stated today that the accident was the result of downright carelessness' on the part of the boys. He said that he conducted a business of contracting ed commission to blow up a num- Der of stumps on a field near his home.
 He had planned to have his grand son take charge of the work because he was familiar with the use of the explosive. He said the boys took two sticks of dynamite into the lot to see if it would work. One of the sticks had very short fuse and this ap- parently was burning after they thought it had gone out.
 Expect Pavano to Die Little hope is held out at the Bristol hospital for the recovery of Pavano. The other two will sur vive, in the opinion of the attendant doctors.
 pr. P. A. Nestos, who, in company with Dr. Lawrence H. Frost Of Plainville, attended the injured youths at the hospital, reported that Pavano had suffered the loss of both arms midway between the wrist and the elbow. He also lost his left eye, the tip of his nose and part of his right ear, while he had multiple la- cerations about the face and neck besides lacerations about the body and legs.
 Gudat suffered the loss of three fingers on his right hand and DOT tions of the hand itself, He sus- tained lacerations about the head and body.
 Lobdell received severe contusions about the chest and multiple lacer- ations about the face, neck and body.
 Scene Near Hart's Corner
 The scene of the accident is at the side of a wagon road leading in- to the field beyond the house. River street connects Shuttle Meadow road, which runs from Hart's cor ner, with Queen street, the main road between Plainville and South. ington. It runs parallel for a mile or more with the main road and crosses the Qunnipiac river. / ,
 The field slopes gently down from the road to the river, which winds and twists through tortuous course lo DoWHHdHl DTlOSe on the Inal1 road. It is covered with short crop. ped grass.
 Nothing remained to reveal the terrible accident that had taker place there except a few muddy holes in the ground. several pools 0, blood, and the torn bits of clothing

Faces Stern Fight

Washington, Sept. (UP)-Dis- cussion of the possibility that Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick's right to a senate seat may be challenged if elected this fall was revived today as result of the Illinois woman can- didate's public challenge to Chair man Nye of the senate campaign Investigating committee.
 Although senators were reticent concerning the matter, it was con- ceded even by some of Mrs. McCor- mick's senate friends that she faces 8 stern fight to obtain her seat.
 Prior to her admission that she employed detectives to shadow" Nye, there had been some talk here of a fight against seating Mrs. Nc | Cormick because of the committee 6 revelations that she spent more than s3O0,000 in her primary cam paign. This prospect is believed to have been strengthened by later de velopments. which include a virtual challenge to Nye to do something about" her action in employing de- tectives.
 Thus far, Senator Caraway, dem- ocrat, Arkansas, is the only member of the senate who has been willing to discuss the case publicly. Some time before the "shadowing" incl dent became known. Caraway pre-, dicted Mrs. Mccormick would be re. fused a seat because of her primary expenditures.
 It was believed improbable tha' l the senate would bring any charge. of contempt of the senate as a re, suit of the incident. Senate legal au thorities said there might be some grounds for such a charge, thougf they pointed out there is no law for
 bidding use of detectives as employ

 The westward flight is consider ably more difficult due to the head winds and the fact that the worst weather conditions are encountered toward the end of the flight"
 Jean Borotra, French tepnis champion, asked Lindbergh if he did not think Coste displayed excel- lent judgment in turning back Tt the Azores when he encountered a storm on his first attempted flight across the Atlantic. "Yes, indeed, excellent" responded the colonel.

FOX FOLLIES LAST
 TIMES AT COLISEUM

Youth and beauty, as well as a good foundation in stage dancing were the requirements laid down by Marcel Silver, director of revue in selecting the young ladies of the ensemble for the William Fox Movietone Follies of 1929 the all singing, dancing and talking musi- cal comedy, at the Coliseum for the last times tonight.
 Hundreds of girls who successfully fulfilled all three requirements however, were unable to pass the exacting screen tests, and the final selection represents, according to MT. Silver, the most nearly perfect all-around chorus ever chosen for any production.
 Some of the girls are products of the studio of Fanchon and Marco famous throughout the country for their tabloid musical comedies. Oth- CTS are from Well-known dancing schools of New York and Los An geles.
 The average age of the girls fin Eally selected is trifle more than sixteen years.

CITY LEAGUE TO HAVE BUT
 THREE TEAMS
EIks, Moose, Legion to Play-Fiirst Game Sum-
 day-Players Listed

Three teams, the American Le- zion, Moose and Elks, will compose the City League of 1880, instead of four outfits as ill the past, it has been decided by officials of the League, Karl Vnel:c, rresident, an- nounced today.
 Lack of sufficient material for four good teams was given as the reason for the change. In the past, with four teams in the field, it was seldom that any team would be on the grounds with all their play CTS, and it was necessary to bor- row from other teams, MT. Theile said.
 This year, he continued, each team has larger number of play CTS, and no teams will be allowed to borrow players. There are suf- ficient players, so no outfit will be crippled through the loss of few men because of illness or inter ference of work
 Open Next Sunday
 Games will be played on Sundays, Wednesdays and Fridays The opening tilt will be held Sunday, May II, if the weather permits. A complete schedule of games and a list of umpires will be given out by MT. Theile within day or two.
 Managers for the aggregations in the League this year are: Fred Cameron, American Legion; Art McKinnon, Moose Henry Messer- schmidt, Elks. All baseball men are asked to be at the ball park for practice every night this week when weather is favorable.
