SYNOPSIS: When Bruce, the bank clerk, leaves on a busi- neas trip, taking the money Pierre had given him for mining investment promoted by PiorIe's father, the youth real izos he cannot leave for dra- matic school in the morning. Previously Bruce, misunder- standing their tete-a-tete, had overheard Ann urging Pierre not to invest. Pierre, telling Ann what he has done, realizes his love for her and learns that Bruce has misrepresented her feelings in the mine deal. He rushes from the house, and Ann is worrying over him when her father comes in. Tony La tour enters, disturbed because Pierre had run from him when they had met near the bank. Then Pierre returns and, as Ann weeps over a letter Bruce had left fer her, visitors are admitted.

George Simpson, Ohio States great sprinter, has wound up his college career, but is ambitious to get into the Olympic speed whirl at Los Angeles next summer before he puts away the spiked shoes for good.
 Three years ago, when he was just a sophomore sensation, Simp- son advanced to the Olympic fin als at Cambridge. With Frank Wykoff, then high school boy, Simpson was going like a house afire until he suddenly broke down in the semi-finals with pulled tendon.
 This was the first of two bad breaks that were costly to Simp- son. The second came year lat CT when, at his peak, he won the National Collegiate A 100" in the worlds record time of 9 2-5 sec- onds.
 It happened he used starting blocks that afternoon. Probably he could have done just as well without them, but the N. c. A. A. was anxious to have the devices usefulness proved and Simpson consented to try it.

l What are you doing here at this time of night, Tony? Old codgers like you have no business being out"
 The old actor was startled, but he smiled. Why, just dropped in for a little good-by call on my young friend, Pierre He's leaving on the early morning train for New York as you may have heard.
 The sheriff looked at Pierre with amused contempt. "Oh, yes-you are going to be an actor, I under stand. We'll, you will have to post pone going away for little while, understand"
 "Yes, sir"
 The sheriff turned back to Tony What time was it when you first got here this evening""
 T can't say exactly-nine, or a quarter past-I think"
 Scott spoke: T saw him at the Owl Drug store about nine" 1 The sheriff continued question ing the actor: You came here straight from the drug store around the square, past the bank on the corner, and up Elm Street, I sup poser"
 { Old Tony hesitated "Yes, sir"
 'Uh-huh-Well, Tony did you see any one near the bank?"
 The old actors heart sank. While he appeared to be searching his memory he was in reality thinking of Pierre and the boys strange conduct, when he saw him on the street and when Pierre first came home, He dared not look at Pierre.
 Well, do you remember seeing anybody in the neighborhood of the bank?" demanded the sheriff.
 No, sir"
 The sheriff turned his attention to Pierre. Young man, been here at home ever since supper, have you?n
The Daily Alaska empire., 1931-07-21

| No, sir. I went out, then came back"
 What time did you go?"
 T don't know"
 Where did you go?"
 IT don't know. I mean, it is hard to tell you"
 50 it appears Well, you'd better tell just the same"
 IT was just wandering around. You see, I was feeling so badly about going away to school-I did not notice where I went"
 Were you in the vicinity of the bank?"
 IT don't think so"
 The sheriff turned abruptly to Ann. Mrs Carey, when we came tonight you seemed terribly upset what was the trouble?"
 Ann could not answer. Pierre's wild words when he left her; Old Tony's account of having seen him near the bank; the boys strange conduct when he returned nome, and Bruce's letter all combined to put her on the rack.
 I'm sorry Mrs. Carey" said the sheriff, but you'd better answer"
 Suddenly Ann found her voice. T was feeling badly about Pierre's leaving us in the morning"
 "Oh, that was itl' the sheriff's tone was incredulous. Well, what time was it when Pierre left the house to go wandering about, he doesn't know where, because he was feeling so bad about leavin' you?"
 Ann hesitated. Tt was some time after eight, think"
 And when did he get home?'
 Around half past nine"

 The sheriff started to ask an- other question when MT. Dayton said kindly: Martin, have the utmost confidence in you" His grave eyes sought the faces of the others. For 40 years Martin Bevis has held a position of trust in our bank. would trust you, Martin, with my life"
 Martin, deeply moved, could only humble his thanks.
 The banker then said solemnly Martin, MT. Campbell, our cash fer, was found dead in his office at the bank tonight, and S25, 1000 has been taken from the vault"
 Martin Bevis leaned forward.

 Martin gasped: But how? where II can't believe it!'
 "The janitor discovered it." ex- plained Dayton. You know Jim takes care of other offices and oft en it is late when he gets around to us"
 Now, MT. Dayton,' said the sher- if, in a tone which indicated that he proposed to take charge of af- fairs, T don't want to appear hard, nor hurt anybody's feelings, but after all I happen to be sheriff and I'd like to ask few questions"
 The banker bowed. Certainly, Sheriff Bolton"
 The sheriff paused, and then he fixed Tony with steady look.

It's Grove To You

It's Grove To You Until Gene Tunney came along very few if any boxers could spell "arboretufn,' much less give a defi- milton of it.
 It was altogether appropriate therefore to have Gene become the first notable fisticuffer to crash tle arboretum of Beeman G. Dawes, not far from Columbus, and plant tree therein.
 The arboretum is a hobby of the brother of Ambassador Dawes. Pres idents for the last score of years, war leaders such as Foch and Pershing, celebrities in many walks of life have accepted the invitation of MT. Dawes to plant a tree to bear their name.
 Bobby Jones has been asked to join the list because as MT. Dawes remarked, "he is one of the great est of all champions"
 Byron Bancroft Johnson, a col lege classmate of Dawes, was the first representative of any sport to have his name-plate on tree in the arboretum. The old base ball warrior and Dawes were life long friends.

NEW YORK.-The opinion of the
Food Workers Industrial Union that
there was group of gangsters among
the Loot Candy strikers who would
sell out was proven correct yester-
day. These racketeers refused to al
low the union organizers to speak,
beating some of them up and taking
another one for a ride with a gun
against his side. This was done in
order to break up any organization
that existed among the Strikers. Hav-
ing accomplished their purpose, these
gangsters held a meeting yesterday
and sent a strike committee" of
their own to see the boss. The work.
ers had demanded the old scale of
43 hours week and no pay reduc-
ton. The fake strike committee ac-
cepted the bosses compromise of 81
hours for the men instead of the so
that had caused ten strike. The boss
proposed that the women work 81 and
half hours instead of the 81.
The workers hearing this settle
ment became very angry and imme-
diately realized that they had been
sold out. The sentiment against these
gangsters became very strong and the
workers decided that they would not
go back to work on such miserable
conditions. Those who had arranged
this settlement, tried to apologize for
the Loft bosses saying that the lat
ter had explained that business was
bad and the cut couldn't be helped.
