JAIL IS BARRED
To FUGITIVE
Times Staff Photo

BALTIMORE, July 16.-For sew
eral days city police officials here
were puzzled what to do with
Anthony Kawalsky.
KawalSky who had been
brought here from Philadelphia
through extradition process last
April was sentenced in the East
ern district police court to 68
days in Jail.
While officers were taking him
to the bailiwick the man jumped
out of the police wagon and
served his time "at liberty"
One day last week he was
picked up by a deputy sheriff
who took him to the Jail. War
den Harry C. Martin looked over
the commitment papers and found
that the 68 days had expired.
When he refused to let the
man into the Jail the question
arose as to what was to be done
with him. Kawalsky was kept
at the police station while of"
ficials Cogitated.
Before the knotty problem was
untangled the dilemma was solved
by Kawalsky's father paying the
fine and the extradition costs and
the prisoner was set free.

CLOTHS RULING
PRESENTS NEW
OBSTACLE
Desired Lines Lie in Arlington
County; Next Move of Falls
Church Township Unknown

The projected municipal water
system Of Falls Church, Va, ran
into another obstacle yesterday
when the Arlington board of
supervisors refused to approve the
sale Of mains in East Fails Church
to the township.
The negative action of the
board came as the result of an
opinion given by w. C. Cloth,
COmmonwealth'S attorney for
. Arlington, in which he stated
that he believed an act Of the
legislature was necessary before
the sale could be cOnsummated.
System Is Bonded
In upholding this opinion. Mr..
Cloth pointed out that the county
water system was bonded and that
no part of the system could be
sold until the bonds are paid.
The peculiar situation which
exists resulted from the fact
that East Falls Church lies with
In the boundaries of Arlington
county, while the remainder of
Falls Church lies in Fairfax
county.
Prices PrOhibitive
Falls Church officials had
originally planned to purchase
their water supply from Airing
ton, but two months ago, when
officials of the two governments
conferred, it was found that the
price quoted by Arlington authorl-
ties for water was too high for
the township, and plans we're
completed for drilling its own
wells. Falls Church officials
have not indicated what their
next step will be.

Chief Justice Hammond Orner Of
the circuit court at Rockville, and
who was given a week to explain

The contempt proceedings arose
out of suit instituted by Morris

asked to have Maltby, who is
Bealle's lawyer, adjudged in con-
tempt because he had had suit
dismissed which Bealle had pend
ing against the Maryland News.
Maltby told the court that he
had no intention of violating the
Maryland code by practising in

ment of town funds, George Fin

MERCURY RISES
IN WAKE Of
Bic STORM
Thunder Showers Promised
Tomorrow; Lightning Hits
Capitol, Church, Buildings

Relief from the sweltering heat
of the past few days, occasioned
by yesterdays storm, today ap-
peared to have been temporary,
as the mercury at rs gave indi-
cations of a continued rise.
The weather forecast for the
day was continued fair" Thun-
dershowers are predicted for TO-
morrow.
Yesterdays temperature dropped
from a high of "a to 72, within
an hour and a half, after the
severest electrical storm Of the
year had struck the city and sur
rounding territory.
Bolts Hit Often
Lightning struck in half a
dozen places about the city, scores
Of trees were blown into the
streets and Easements of numer-
Gus homes were flooded.
Among the places where light
ming struck were the Capitol,
where a window awning was set
on fire; the White House grounds,
where a tree was damaged; the
Census Bureau temporary build
ing, Sixth and B Streets South
west; a church in the Southeast
section, the steeple of which was
set on fire; a flagpole in the
Naval Hospital grounds. and sew
eral private homes and business
houses.
St. Swithin DOwnpOur
Yesterdays rain was Of double
importance in the eyes of old
time weather prOgnOsticatOrS be-
cause of the fact that it fell on
st. Swithin's Day. A superstition
dating back to the ninth century
declares that If it rains on st.
Swithin's Day 4O-day rainy
period may be expected, while a
fair st. Swithin's Day is indica-
tive of 40 days of drought.
There were no deaths traceable
to the storm IN the city, but one
man died as a result Of the heat
which preceded it. :.
Rudolph Kovacic. So. house-to-
house salesman of 518 Fourth St.
N. E., was stricken while trying
to make sale at % Third ST..
N. E., and died shortly after he
was taken to Casualty Hospital.
SailbOat Upset
John Powell, 18, 207 Ninth ST..
S. W., came near drowning when
a gust of wind upset the 1sfoot
sailboat in which he was cruising
near Hains Point. He was
rescued by a river tug after
rough water had prevented a
naval launch from reaching him.
The tug took him to Alexandria.
whence he returned in speed
boat.
The storm struck with even
more intensity in nearby Virginia,
where hailStOnes the size of moth
balls cut the corn to ShredS.
Hardy Grim, so, a farmer of
KernstOwn, Va, was killed by a
bolt of lightning as he was at
work in a field near his home.
Damage to aircraft was light.
One plane was blown against
soAe telegraph wires and another
against a hangar at Hoover
washington Airport, but neither
was damaged seriously. Several
planes on the starting line, how
ever, were endangered for a tine.
