Two-Minute Tragedy Oc- CUTS in Brooklyn in
 Early Morning

NEW YORK, Nov. 18.-Two min- utes, packed with tragedy. left a little restaurant in Brooklyn thick with the smoke of guns and two men dead on the floor.
 A motor car drove up in front of the restaurant. Four men en- tered, pistols in hands, and walked quickly toward a table where three men sat.
 Guns blazed in unison.
 The killers backed out of the door, covering their retreat with smoking guns, got in their car and were lost in the darkness of the early morning hour before pursuit started.
 The men slain are Giglielmo Guica, aged 28, known as gang ster, and Beneditto Ruggerio, aged 27. The police have no record of him.
 The third man at the table drop- ped out of the restaurant as the four men approached the table and no one can be found who can identify him.

Hmdenburg Solues Problem
 of ''tO Kiss or Not to Kiss'

BERLIN, Nov. 13.-American wo- men who expect to be presented to President von Hindenburg should wear their wedding rings on their right hands. Otherwise they prob ably will miss having the vener- able field marshal bend to kiss their hands.
 At a recent dinner President von Hindenburg was asked by Fraeu- lein Dorothea Groener, daughter of General Wilhelm Groener, min ister of defense and of the interior, how he managed always to know when to kiss woman's hand and when not.
 "It's quite simple" the octogen- arian chief of state replied. When a strange lady is presented to me I feel for her ring finger. If there's a wedding band on 1t, I know that I ought to bow and kiss the hand"
 But suppose she wears her ring

REVEAL PLOT
 FOR RELEASE
 OF CONNECTS
Altering of Court Records Is Discovered by Oak
 land Officials

OAKLAND, Cal, Nov. 18.-Two months of painstaking work of all legedly altering of the official court records through which friends of Ernest Booth, Folsom Prison con- vict, hoped to obtain his release, has resulted in the arrest of three men.
 The men arrested are Warren Mulvey, released from Folsom pri- son last July after serving a 13- year sentence following conviction of statutory charge; Lester Con dron, and Edward Booth, brother of the prisoner.
 Mrs. Pearl Booth, Edwards wife, was also taken in custody but re- leased after questioning.
 The plot to obtain the release of Ernest Booth, who is noted as the author of short stories and one novel, was revealed by District Attorney Earl Warren, who de- clared he believed it might have been the beginning of gigantic conspiracy to obtain the release of more prisoners through falsifying of the court records, then obtaining dismissal from prison through legal technicalities.
