HUNTERS URGED SPORT
 TOCs OF BRIGHT HUE

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5. (P) - With hunting seasons over the country already opening or last approaching, game officials are issuing the warning that hunters are often in as great danger as the game they hunt. Last season several states reported record toll of deaths and injuries among hunters due to an increasing number of amateurs in the sport ing ranks and the sometimes crowded condition of huntable areas, especially on holidays.
 Commissioner John H. Ross of the Missouri Game and Fish De- partment has pointed out that of the 10 persons fatally injured while hunting last season. 30 were killed by their own or others fire arms-four by their own careless ness in crawling thru fences.
 Hunters are being advised to handle their guns with great care to hold their fire until they are positive they see what they think they see, to steer clear of the am- ateurish trick of shooting at a moving brush, to be careful of forest fire and to dress diStinc- lively in hunting togs of bright color, preferably red or white, to save themselves from being mis- taken for a deer, turkey or even cottontail.

PAYROLL Thief
ADMITS GUILT

Walter o. Jones, 80, who was
arrested at San Diego, Calf, last
week in connection with the pay
roll robbery Of Children's Hos
pital last summer, entered a
plea of guilty to the Indictment
before Justice Peyton Gordon to-
day.
Occurred Last July
Justice Gordon referred the
case to Probation Officer Amos A.
Steele for investigation. The rob-
berry occurred last July 81, and
$3,289, the weekly payroll, was
taken from Miss Eleanor E. Page
who was returning from the bank.
Jones had been employed in the
hospital and told the probation
officer that he planned the rob-
berry with Earl Roberts, an accom-
plice, who has not been appre-
hended and at whose home he
was living.
Went To Coast
A third man, whose name Jones
says he does not know, partici-
pated in the robbery, but Jones
declares that he waited at the
Public Library while the robbery
was being staged because he knew
Miss Page and was afraid she
would recognize him.
Roberts gave him $700 Of the
stolen money, Jones said, and he
took his wife and two children
to California where he was re-
Gently arrested.

VIRGINIA LOSES
FIRST ROUND IN
LAND FIGHT
Court UphoIds Mrs. Van
.Every's Injunction Hating
State Work on Property

ARLINGTON, Va, March %.
The first skirmish Fin the battle
of Mrs. Virginia Van Every to
protect her property against what
she terms trespassing by the
State Highway Department was
won by Mrs. Van Every when
Judge Walter T. Mccarthy, of
the Fairfax Circuit Court, refused
to dissolve an injunction restrain
ing the State from working upon
her estate.
The motion for dissolution,
filed Saturday by Charles w.
Pickett, attorney for the State
Highway Department, and argued
Saturday afternoon, attempted to
enforce 80 day option given
the State by the late E. B. Van
Every in 1925.
Option Expires
Emory N. Hosmer and Thomas
H. Patterson, attorneys for Mrs.
Van Every, maintained that the
option had expired in 1925 when
the State failed to build the Lee
Boulevard at that time.
After arguing his motion, Mr..
Pickett urged the court to dis
solve the Injunction in order that
the State may proceed with the
road and finish it in time for
the bicentennial celebration.
Attorney Hosmer answered this
plea with the statement that
there were a number of other
tracts lying in the right of way
which had not been settled. Also,
he pointed out, the last Congress
had made no appropriation for
construction of that portion off
the boulevard passing through
the Federal Reservation at Fort
Myer.
Hearing April l
A hearing on the right of Mrs.
Van Every to be compensated for
her land and the manner in
which the land is to be appraised
