COFFEE BOILS OVER,
ASPHYXIATING MAN
Spanish War Veteran, 81, Found
in Bed at Rooming House
on C Street.

George F. Steffens, 50, Spanish Amer
lean War veteran, died of gas poisoning
at his rooming house, 302 c street, after
a pot of coffee boiled over presumably
Saturday night, and eXtinguished the
fame over which it was cooking.
His body was found Sunday night when
two fellow dodgers, Arthur Moore and
j. Edwards, who had seen Steffens
retire to his room and start to prepare
the coffee late Saturday went to his
room to investigate.
Steffens was lying in bed with the
covers pulled over his head, as If trying
to escape the cold, police said, Gas
was flowing from the Jet of gas plate
beneath the coffee pot. 1t is believed
he fell asleep and the coffee boiled over,
the gas fumes aSphyxiating him while
he slept.

Plays Will
Be Given

MYTH the Sutherland players
w serving again as hosts and
sponsors, the third annual religious
drama tournament of Indianapolis
has been scheduled for Nov. 6, z and
8 at the Sutherland Presbyterian
church, Twenty eighth and Belle
fontaine streets.
All local church-centered groups
who are interested in religious
drama production are eligible to
compete, according to an announce
ment from the tournament Chair
man, Mrs. c. Norman Green, who
further announces that entries may
be made up to and including
Oct. is.
Considerable interest has been
aroused in the tournaments of the
last two years, the first one in 1929
being the primary effort of its kind
in this part Of the country, 1t is
expected that the entries this year
will surpasS those Of former tourna-
ments.
This religious drama tournament,
as inaugurated in 1929 and since
carried on with greater formulation
and development Of plans, has been
arranged to bring together all local
church groups interested in play
production for the purpose of ex-
changing and comparing ideas, as
we'll as to encourage new groups
and demonstrate the type of pro-
duction which is within the reach
Of practically all churches includ-
ing the smaller ones and those with
limited facilities for drama produc-
ton.
TO establish more accurate basis
Of competition, therefore, all PLAYS
presented must be selected from a
list Of one-act dramas submitted by
the Sutherland Players.
Further, each group will be lim-
tied to use as scenic equipment for
its play the neutral toned gray
draperies provided by the Players.
and the lighting equipment made
available by the Players.
Each group shall furnish its own
properties and makeup, as well as
any incidental music, if such is re-
quired for the presentation of the
play.
Immediately after Oct. IS, the
tournament committee viii deter
mine the time of presentation for
each play entered in the contest,
and will notify the various dramatic
groups accordingly. Not more than
three plays will be scheduled for
one performance, unless the length
OF the productions entered makes
possible the presentation of four
dramas.

Choose Your Boys College
So That He Will Fit In

as he shops for anything else, and
it seems strange that so many par
entS choose them for almost every
reason but the right ones.
Why do you want John to go to
Oakleaf? It is because Johns ia
ther or grandfather went there? I
like the sentiment and it is fine
reason, but not enough.
Perhaps Oakleaf suited both the
other men admirably. Well say for
instance that they were cut out for
law and it is well known that SO
per cent Of the students there in
tend to be lawyers, Or to go into
something that needs the same
foundation that a law course needs.
School Don't Want Misfits
But if John is born engineer
or thinks he wants to be a doctor,
or if he is creative and has lean
ing toward the arts, not only is
Oakleaf not the right place for him
but Oakleaf doesn't want him.
Perhaps the boy next door is 60
ing to a certain college, or a whole
group Of young fellows John knows
are going. and you think it would
be nice for him to know so many
people when he goes away. Again
ic a INy,4 CIT -
good enough.
If possible, visit some of the
the places you have in mind. Or
write to the deans of admission or
the registrars of the different
schools, and find out their trends
of training, what they accent, what
type of student will fit and who
will not.
1t is only fair if you want your
boy or girl to be happy in his school
life and to succeed in his work,
fair to him and fair to the school.
There is one motive that governs
the placing of so many girls now
adays, and feel that I must speak
Of it.
Many mothers seem to become
extremely ambitious for their
daughters in a social way when it
becomes to choosing a last school.
Certainly we want our daughters
to have nice friends and to make
more, but I know of nothing more
cruel than to place a girl in an en-
vironment where she can not keep
up with the dressing, spending. or
general rate of living of the other
girls.
True, in many of our best schools
things are regulated so that there is
no class distinction, but in some
there is less effort made to reduce
the comparison.
Will your daughter fit in such a
school? Will she do her best work
there?
Be sure that she will be happy,
that she will develop and make
real friends instead of cardboard
ones, wherever you send her.
And place her where her natural
choice of work will get its greatest
inspiration.

EUentS i'm
the Parks

A feature of the free attractions
at Riverside park for the Fourth of
July will be two appearances of the
celebrated Herbert Hardini, who has
mystified many audiences in In
dianapohs with his slight of hand
and escape stunts.
He will hang himself by the neck
in the afternoon, permitting a trap
to be sprung with all the reality of
prison execution.
A galloWs has been erected at the
park and may be examined before
the performance. Hardini will per-
nit his head to be securely fastened
in the moose, but will manage to
escape the fatal twist of the rope.
He will give many other imita-
tions Of famous magicians, including
Harry Houdini with whom he was
associated for a number of years.
In the evening he will make his
escape from a coffin after he has
been sealed and bound inside. He
will also eXtricate himself from
straight jacket. The coffin will be
furnished by a local dealer and the
performance will be in full view of
all patrons.

STUNT MAN TO
BE AT BROAD RIPPLE

Henry Samson never went in very
much for baseball because, he says.
the game is too tame but when it
comes to catching cannonballs fired
from six inch gun, that says Henry
is real sport.
Samson stations himself directly
in front of siX-inch gun, issues
orders to fire and then nonchalant-
ly catches the ball as it speeds at
him. So far. he is the only man
who successfully performs the
trick, which he says, is like
parachute jumping in that there is
no practicing.
Either you're right the first
time or you don't do it again." he
said He will perform his feat at
Broad Ripple park, Saturday and
Sunday as one Of the many ac-
compliShmentS of his full act.
Included among his other re-
pertore is the feat of lifting an au-
tomobile until all four wheels are
clear of the ground, bending a sill
yer dollar with his fingers until it
breaks, and other things.
Regarding the cannonban catch
ing feat, he says:
There isn't much trick to it. 1t
merely is a case of having strength
enough in your arms to hold the.
ball as it comes by. You can't
catch it like a baseball is caught
because the jar would probably kill
you You've got to hold the jar
of your body with your arms"
Samson has been in practically
every nook of the world with his act
and once accepted a challenge from
the Car of Russia on tho task of
bending a silver coin. THE car
prided himself on the strength in
his hands" Samson said. He
showed me he could bend a silver
coin almost double and suggested I
try. I'd never tried it, but to my
surprise I not only bent the coin,
but bent it so fiat it finally broke in
half.

Just
Every
Day
Sense

WE had come to think Of "old
w Aunt Viney" as a town in
stitution. TIL other day she died,
and with, her went from life one
of the noblest souls that ever dwelt
in flesh.
Black she was, as black as a
nist-shrouded midnight. and all
her life she had worked from
dawn to dusk for white folks"
The family to whom her people
once belonged had all the wealth
of her love and to each she was
faithful to her last painfully
drawn breath.
When her kind found them
selves among the free peoples Of
earth, they still remained in a
bondage worse than that by which
the law had Shackled them-the
bondage Of the white mans arro-
gance. Aunt Viney never was
paid a third Of what her gnarled
hands had earned. Sometimes she
was not even given the kind
words her loyal heart coveted.
She and all her small clan were
bounded and harried by that vi
cious and purse-proud tyranny
that we call the white mans
rights. She could have had no
real justice in any court, and
that by some instructive wisdom
she knew.
90 she continued all her days
~ to go humbly to the back doors
of those whom she served. Her
rich laugh rang out in defiance
of life. In the evenings she
crooned forgotten melodies that
transported her to fabled lands.
Too bad, we said, Old Aunt
viney is dead. Well, bury her
deep and quickly She was just
a worn-out old Negro woman.
Yet with her we bury some
thing finer than spun gold,
something rarer than precious
gems, something more marvellous
than the stars in their courses.
For we bury a passionate belief
in our superior wisdom.
We bury loyalty to our white
skins that not one Of us merits.
And we bury a love that for sheer
disinteSeStedneSs approaches the
divine.
