the Northwest would produce
some delightfully."- cool air for the

hands of dangerous classes"
Gamblers Driven North
Migration of gamblers from
downtown lairs to Columbia
Heights as a result of Brig. Gen.
Pelham d. Glassford's drive
against gambling was cited as
one reason for the growth of
crime in Mt. Pleasant.

The office of Comptroller

in the suit of Miss Alma O.

Of leave she accrued prior to

Miss Sarton is basing her suit
on an Act of Congress of 1916

grants 80 days leave with pay to
"all employees of Navy Yards,
gun factories, naval stations and
arsenals of the United States

posts one year.
Bill Withdraws Rights"
At the Comptroller Generals
office today, however, it was said;
(1) That the Economy bill
temporarily withdraws "all rights
now conferred or authorized to
be conferred by lay" upon any
emplove for leave With pay; and,

merely suspended these previous
rights for a year, with indication
that forfeited authorized leave

ANIMAL PICTURE
THRILLS PATRONS
AT FOX AIRDOME

Those who saw Bring En- Back
Alive the famous Wild animal pic
fure at Fox Imperial airdome last
night, are today regaling their
friends with descriptions Of the
thrilling scenes which are shown on
the screen and it is safe to assume
that those who missed out on the
picture will want to see il tonight.
Filmed IN the Maylayan jungle
by Frank Buck, internationally
known big game hunter and ex-
plorer. Bring En- Back Alive" is
not. as seems to be the impression,
an African film.
The Maylayan jungle is altogeth-
er different from the African, and
while generally speaking, many an
imals live in both places, the two
localities are greatly varied in seem
cry, contour and inhabitants. OF
the two the Maylayan is more un-
touched by civilization.
High spot in the film is the thrill
ing battle between a tiger and py-
thon. the result of which is in doubt
all through the scene and which
cannot be given mere, else the scene
would be spoiled for those who have
not seen il.
The tiger meets another adver-
sary in the water buffalo. and those
who have imagined the latter ami
NAL as docile, will have a new con-
ception of him after watching him
fight.
over 36 miles of film were taken
during the course of the Buck party
trip, but these have been consoh-
dated until the scenes could be
compressed into six reels, the best
shots taken being retained.
Genuineness of the film is at
tested in a sworn statement made
by Buck before a New York notary
public, in which it is declared that
every scene shown was taken in the
Maylay peninsula and that none OF
1t is faxed"

uousness of Bring En- Back Alive,

OFFICERS SEEK
THIRD SUSPECT
ON FINCERPRINT

NATCHEz, Miss, Aug. Il. U.P)--
Search for a third suspect in the
famous Jane Surget Merrill Staying
case started today after a night Of
intense investigation had plunged
the case deeper into mystery.
With two elderly eccentrics al
ready charged with murder in the
case, j. E. Chancellor announced
last night he had found finger
prints of a third person at the
scene of the killing.
Deputy Sheriff Joe Serio re-
tarned from another search of
Glennburney, l22-year-old Merrill
mansion that was the scene OF the
crime, and told Of finding more
bloodstains on a bench outside the
house. He said blood marks in and
about the home indicated that the
72-year-old spinster, once the belle
of the south, had been shot to
death inside her home, that one OF
the marauders had thrown her life
less form over his shoulder and
carried it 200 feet outside the house
and deposited Ii in q thicket.
Officers continued relentless
questioning of two suspects-Dick
Dana, 61-year-old bearded recluse,
nephew of Charles A. Dana, the
vreat journalist, and his house
keeper, Miss Octavia Dockrey, 60,
daughter of a famous confederate
general, who are charged with mur-
der. Both have vigorously main
tanned their innocence. They were
charged after bloody fingerprints
at the scene of the Staying were
positively identified" as theirs
Miss Dockrey's prints, according to
Chancellor, were on a lamp.
The only motive advanced is a
goat feud" between Miss Dockrey
and the slain spinster Raids of
Miss Dockrey's goats upon the we'll
kept estate of Miss Merrill had
kept the two women quarreling for
years.
