CAPITOL

The old saying seeing ID Dellev-
ing" is exemplified once more In the
case Of what seems to be an appar-
emit settlement, of the ancient argu-
ment regarding the missing link.
From the days of Barnum and be-
fore, there has been a long record of
alleged encounters with creatures
half monkey, half-human, in the
wilds Of Africa. But always they
seemed to filter away to nothing.
Now, in the astounding, sensational
and authentic film, "Ingagi" coming
to the Capitol theatre for three days
starting today, strange creatures are
seen which apparently are neither
man nor beast-but, actually half
and half! The title Of this picture,
"Ingagi", incidentally, NEAR Gorilla

In the Stock Market
~ Thomson 8 McKinnonl


NEW YORK, May 3.-Obviously
the monthly brokers loan compila-
ton presents nothing new and con-
firms largely what is already known.
Expansion in total should not prove
disturbing as federal reserve author
tiles would hardly have consented
to a rate reduction had alarm been
felt What the stock market is con-
cerned with is business. Trade re-
ports again emphasize declining
wholesale prices and ascribe much
trade caution to price unsettlement.
Until the persistent decline is
checked little Roadway may be ex-
pected, as upon stability Of COM
modify prices hinges very much
business confidence. Business is no
poorer today than a month or two
ago, when stock prices were rising.
Securities we're bid up confidently
then, largely anticipating speedy re-
covery Of business. Realization OF
facts promptly brought about
readjustment and considerable
ground has been retraced, placing
the market more in line with actual
business than for some time.
Liquidation has followed and con-
siderable speculative excess cor
rected. That some misjudged the
arrival Of business recovery is no
good reason for abandonment Of
hopefulness. The immediate OUT
look still remains obscure. However,
we are inclined TO think technical
recovery in the stock market Of SUBJ
stantial proportions is not far of.

GANG BULLETS
KILL BARTENDER
New Yorker Is Put on Spot
in an Ice Box.

81 NEW 5ls3Sfo Y E6G7 May s.--John M.
Mclaughlin, 4l-year- old bartender,
was put on the spot in an ice box
here.
His brother-in-1aw, John Shee-
han, entered the Amsterdam ave-
nue. saloon Friday, where Nc
Loughlin served as bartender, and
found the place empty.
He searched through the saloon
and finally found Mclaughlin, re-
clining on large chunk of ice in
the large refrigerator, with four bull
lets in his body.
A small sum of money had been
taken from the cash register, but
police refused to believe that the
killing was the work of robbers.
Mclaughlin was a small mand
and could have been put out of the
way with a blow on the head, they
said.
The shooting obviously was the
work of gangsters, according to de-
tectiVeS.

TUBA CITY, Ariz., May 3.-The
steady boom of Indian tom toms
came floating over the desert today
as the Hopi Indians staged their
annual Katchini dance and prayer
for rains.
Weird chants pierced the still
mountain air in the enchanted Hopi
country.
At dawn, the medicine men retired
to their headquarters for one last
prayer before the dance began. The
Katchini doll dance perhaps is one
of the most colorful spectacles Of
Indian ceremonies.
Attired in brightly hued costumes,
to brighten from the desert the evil
spirits that threaten drought, the
frenzied dancers sang songs of
threats against the evil ones as they
danced.

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, May 3.-The third
spectacular raid in New York within
a week was executed with dramatic
suddenness Friday night just before
the palatial liner Bremen sailed for
Europe.
Seven thousand visitors bidding
bon voyage to friends and relatives
we're searched for concealed liquor
as they stepped from the North
German Lloyd liner to the pier,
where squads of customs agents,
many in plain clothes, awaited them.
1t was the first time hip
slapping" had been resorted to since
the raid on the lie De France in
the spring of 1928 - an incident
which evoked an order from the
treasury department discouraging
such methods.
Inspection Is Minute
Many wealthy and handsomely
dressed men and women we're in the
throng which passed through a min
ute inspection by the agents, and
several fist fights narrowly were
avoided during the search.
Men became indignant when their
wives were searched. The women's
coats were pulled back and any
bundles they carried we're handed to
customs men.
After the crowd had gone through
the gates, agents reported they had
found several pint TASKS Of liquor.
1t was seized as customs contra
band, although those from whom it
was taken protested they had car
ried it aboard the ship with them.
The raid at the pier followed
closely upon two similar develop
ments of the last few days which
set presidents for stringent en-
forcement.
Held for Possession
The first of these. was at the Hol-
lywood restaurant, exactly a week
ago, when for the first time night
club patrons were arrested and
charged with possession if they were
found to be carrying TASKS.
The second sensation was that
which several agents, posing as col
lege students, caused at the New
York fraternity club this week. 1t
was the first private club to be in
vaded by the agents

The katchini dance, dating back
many centuries, precedes the snake
dance as rain prayer to gods of the

Young Bucks, after taking part in
the dance, take advantage of the
gathering to pay courtship to shy

isolated from the village during
winter.
The colorful ceremonies will con-
tinue until Shutdown Sunday.

Columbia STUDIES Loyal to
Ancient Traditions of
Battle.
BY LESLIE HOLLINGSWORTH
United Press staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, May 3.-When the
records of the Columbia university
classes of 80 and '33 are chronicled
for posterity, let it be written that
they were loyal.
Twenty-one freshmen and a rep
resentative group of sophomores are
so true to the traditions OF the
alma mater that they are willing to
be sued for $51 $50, which, even at
the best estimate, may be worth
500 to the plaintiffs.
The dilemma in which the two
classes found themselves today goes
back two weeks ago to the fresh
man dinner, an ancient and hon
orable social function of the uni
versity.
Served With SOphOmOres
Through the proper committees,
the freshmen selected the Villa
restaurant, near Yonkers. as the
scene for the occasion, and prompt
ly at the appointed hour they were
there, for most of them had escaped
the sophomores, whose annual duty
it is to break up the freshman din
ner.
The sophomores, in time, found
the dinner, and instead of cocktails
the freshmen were served, so to
speak, with sophomOres.
They dropped in from the sky
lights and most any other place a

Freshmen Take to Heels
In fifteen minutes the place was
wreck. Tables were broken, dishes
DESTROYED and the food was ruined.
The freshmen, according to re-
ports, fed, leaving their place cards
behind them.
When the students had departed
Charles Use, manager of the reStau-
rant, dug himself from under the
debris and called for his cloak room
attendant. Miss Ida Bloom. They
compared bruises and decided to file
four damage suits in supreme court.
Miss Bloom somehow stepped out
side the cloakroom just long enough
to suffer some bruises which she
said resulted in "diSflguring
