BERLIN, Oct. Is. U.P)-Although
war veterans legions in all Euro
pean countries greatly increased
their membership after the last
war-and some even now are gain
ing new members due to growing
nationalistic spirit-the war veter-
ans legion in Liechtenstein liter
ally is dying out
At present, the entire Leichten-

There is no chance that any

This actually was Leichtenstein's

war against Garibaldi's insurgents

entire army of 100 men was dis
banded for good.

VETERAN GENERAL
LIVES QUIETLY IN
PRINCETON, N. ].

PRINCETON, N. J., oct. 13. -
U.P)-Far removed from the tu-
multi of war and the clash Of arms,
Major General Hugh l.. Scott, for
mer chief of staff Of the United
States Army and a great-great-
grandson of Benjamin Franklin,
quietly celebrated his 10th birth
day here recently.
General Scott still is active as
chairman of the New Jersey State
Highway Commission and of the
Board of Indian Commissioners.
For more than so years he wore
the uniform of the United States.
His first foes were the Indians of
the western plains, but when he
made a 1000 mile journey during
the past summer to inspect Indian
Reservations, he discovered his for
mer foes now accepted him as

AGED MAN GETS
ESTATE FROM
UNKNOWN SON

BOONVILLE. Ind. Oct 13.-(U.H
An 80-year-old Warrick county
resident living near here has re-
ceived $676.10 from the estate of
son of whose existence he was un-
aware.
The father, William Thomas
Early received the money as the
result of a decision of the War
rick circuit court against the state
of Indiana. The money had been
claimed by the secretary of state
after the administrators failed to
find heirs in two-year search.
Early filed the suit against the
state last spring after he had re-
ceived $9,946.46 from the federal
government in payment of an
army insurance policy carried by
his son, Melvin Osborne Early, who
died at Fort Bayard, New Mexico.
Early was married to Liddie
Contry in 1886, but separated from
her a few months later. She went
to the county infirmary, where the
son was born. Mrs. Contry died
a few years later. The son joined
the army I'M 1906. No more was
heard of him until his death.
The father, who did not know a
son had been born to his former
wife, learned of his existence
through coincidence after Charles
f. Powell, local banker, was named
administrator, but had failed to
find heirs to the estate. Powell
chanced to learn of Early's relation
to the soldier and assisted in col
lection of the money.

DOUBLE PROGRAM
FRIDAY NIGHT TO
HELP BOY SCOUTS

One last great blaze of diamond
glory will echo the baseball sea-
son in Imperial Valley when the
jacobsen Sign company team of
San Diego comes to Ell Centro for
game with a picked team of FL
Centre, BraWley, Calexico and Yu-
ma stars at $3.50 Friday night on
the Central high school field.
All proceeds of the game will go
into a benefit fund for the Boy
Scout movement in Imperial and
Yuma valleys.
The baseball game will be pre-
ceeded by a football contest at 7
O'Clock between the second teams
of Ell Centre and Brawley high
schools, so that the program will
embody the overlapping football
and baseball seasons, giving fans
a taste of each.
The San Diego baseball team is
known as one of the strongest on
the Pacific coast, while Imperial
and Yuma valleys have gained the
reputation of producing teams as
hard to beat as any in California.
Watson and Hurst, long bitter
rivals in the pitchers box, will
join forces in an attempt to de-
feat the San Diego squad. Watson
is Yuma's star pitcher, matching
the position Hurst holds in Imper-
ial Valley.

Invents Valveless
Motor For Boats

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. 13-
U.P)-Invention of a valveless four
cylinder motor for boats is claim
ed here by John Irvine, who says
he has worked 18 years on the pro-
ject. Irvine believes the invention
may result in vast alterations in
engine production.
Valveless motors of two cylin-
ders are in use, according to Irvine,
but four -cylinder engines failed be-
cause of sticking of cylinders. r.
vine said he had overcome this diff
ficulty and found his invention
to be a success in several tests.
The motor is water-cooled and
is capable of driving a small craft
40 miles an hour, according to its
inventor.
Irvine said he believed that with
a few additional improvements, his
motor could be adopted to air
planes and automobiles.

Clever Swindle
Within The Law

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. 13.-
U.P)-An ingenious swindle opera
ton, believed to be within the law,
is being investigated here by the
Better Business Bureau.
A restaurant proprietor gave a
Accent meal to a man who COM
planned he had not eaten for three
days. AS the man was about TO
leave he pulled a handkerchief
from his pocket and $40 bill fell
out. The restaurant owner seized
him, gave him lecture and se1t
him on his way with $3.50.
When the proprietor took the
bill to a bank, he found it was
counterfeit. He was told, however,
that the man could not be prose-
cuted because he had not actually
passed the bill.

'Huddle" Opens At
Capitol With Ramon
Novarro M O n d a Y

Plenty of punch and smashing &C
ton make "Huddle" the most virile
story in which Ramon Novarro has
ever appeared. This fast-moving pic
ture Of modern American university
life will open Monday at the Capitol
Theatre.
From the minute he has his terrific
fight with a laborer in the steel mill
until he wins a big Varsity game for
Yale, Novarro is in action constantly.
His characterization as Tony AmaSfo
is entirely different from anything he
has yet attempted and gives him a
chance to demonstrate his genuine
ability at handling varied types of
roles.
The football scenes show such fam
Gus All-American and noted gridiron
stars as Ernie Pinckert, Marger Aspit,
Jess Hibbs, Gene Clark, Dale Van
Sickel and Don Hill in action. Plays
used by leading American universities
in big games were filmed with a spe-
cial telescope lens" which enables
observers to follow the action closely.
True Campus Background
Campus Atmosphere shows many
actual Yale scenes filmed by techni-
cal experts from the university. Re-
productions of the many famous
buildings and quadrangles will warm
the hearts of 'old grads and many
thousands who have visited the in
st1tution.
Novarro's supporting cast includes
Madge Evans in the feminine lead;
Una Merkel, whose amusing Southern
drawl is very much in evidence when
she is exercising her wiles on the COL
lege men; Ralph Graves as the fight
ing coach who helps Novarro to ad-
just himself to college life; John Ar
Frank Albertson, Kane Rich
mond, Mantha Sleeper, Henry Armet-
