JUDGE RESERVES DECISION IN UNIQUE CASE
WORLD WIDE
 TRAVELLER HAS
 BEEN MURDERED
Capt Walter Wanderwell Shot Dead on Board His Schooner and There Is Mystery in It

Long Beach. Calf, Dec 6.-(UP) A murder mystery of world pro- portions confused police today who hoped the globe trotting career of Captain Walter Wanderwell, pro- fessional traveller, would reveal some clue to the identity of his slayers.
 WanderwelI, organizer of travel clubs and seeker of the world s obscure and romantic trails, had visited practically every country. Police believed that anyone of these trips could have created the enemy who coldly assassinated him last night.
 Police quickly established a background of falsiflcation and in- trigue to the killing. Secret serv- ice operatives said Wahderwell's real name was Valfrian Johannes Pieczynsei and that he was arr rested as a German spy during the war and sent to the Atlanta peni- tentiary. In 1925 he and his wife were arrested on charges of unlaw- fully wearing German uniforms.
 Sixteen members of a party of tourists Wanderwell was to take on world cruise, and members of his crew were held. They in- cluded Cuthbert Mills, chief engi- neer, Edmund Zeranski, camera man. Miss Marian Smith,. of At lanta, Ga. and Miss Mary Parks, Boston, who directed the killer to Wanderwell's cabin.
 His two children. Valry Nell 6, and Nile 5, were asleep in the cabin and were awakened by the pistol shot.
 Wanderwell was killed amid mystery and melodrama that would have appealed to his sense of the romantic had he not been the victim. A stranger appeared aboard his schooner, "The Carma."
 Where's the shippers cabin ?" he asked.
 The stranger was directed and the crew heard his footballs on the deck.
 A moment later they heard a shot.
 Wanderwell was found in his cabin. He had been shot in the back. He had fallen face forward on a table filtered with charts of the South Sea Island which he had been studying.
 An immediate search of the no foot craft revealed no trace of the assassin. Police could not under- stand how he managed to escape in the few seconds between the shot and the crews arrival.
 Wanderwellsserved in the World War with the Y. M. c. A. in Bel gium he met girl in a convent named Aloha Hall whom he mar ried. She was of Canadian fam. fly that had lived in Hawaii hence her name. Together they toured by automobile all the con tinents, a trip that lasted eight years and covered 75,O00 miles.
 The Wanderwells travelled = in small cars stripped down to a point where only the chassis, the wheels, and the motor remained. They had a strip of canvas stretched across the seats to shield them from the sun.
 They drove their cars through jungles and over deserts. Wander well boasted that he preferred to travel across country" rather than on a road.
 They have two children.

CONVICTS TOO
 REALISTIC IN
 THEIR SCENES.
Sing Sing Presented the Annual Revue L ast Night - Women in the Audience Very Nervous

Ossining, N. r., Dec 8--(U. P.) Delft handling of revolyers and searchlights in house-robbing skits left first-night audience, includ- ing Dr John r. (Jafsie) Condon, at Sing Sings annual revenue slightly amazed to-day With many conS- ments of ''it was almost too real"
 Burglars and safe crackers who Eeld dress rehearsals in real life played stage roles last night, so ex- pertly that many among the 300 women in the audience were nerv-. ous. The guns looked genuine, but they weren't the shooting kind.
 The revue, however, had its light CT moments. One scene featured a robbery in which a woman, who had his number. was the victim saved at the opportune moment by a policeman, another number. This sketch especially pleased the 319 inmates privileged to see the revue. They also seemed to see the hum0r In song "I'll Sit Around and Wear A Frown Like You"
 Harold Russell Ryder, Broadway playboy whose first nights are linn tied to one year now, directed the revue which is staged for the hene- fit of prisoners and their depend- ents.
 Condon, one of the 745 patrons from beyond the wall, was the "Jafsie" of the want-ads who toss cd $50.000 over cemetery wall in a vain httefnpt to ransom the kid- naped son of Colonel Charles A.. Lindbergh. George Raft, movie player, also. was prominent spec tator.
 Only Sing Sings privileged few saw the revue as 2,100 were locked in their cells just as on every night. Those counted out of their cells numbered only 319. and included 157 connected with the show. Mem bers of the football squad were permitted to attend as a reward for tl.eir victories this fall. Officers of the Welfare League, an agency of inmate government, completed the convict spectators.
 Elaborate precautions were tak- en by authorities against contra band being taken into the prison. Even candy was taboo. Women were searched as we'll as men.

 FaIIOn Under conditional Sales Law

ed 1t over to the Deconinck Agency in Waterbury toward the purchase of another machine. The depend- ant, Falfon. purchased the car from Deconinck. Walcott in pass ing by the agency on North Main street noticed the similarity of the Packard standing outside the agency, to his own machine and after inquiry determined 1t was his original machine. He sought legal advice and together with Q deputy sheriff, made demand upon Fallon for the car. Fallon was requiered to run 1t over, not knowing the past history of the machine.
 Walcott claims the car again on the grounds that the payments of the notes included as part of the bargain when the car was original ly sold to Boisvert, and within the meaning of the conditional sales law, were not kept up.
 It is the first case of its kind, lawyers believe, to come before the courts in this state. Attorney Walter w. Smyth appears for the plaintiff. Attorney Harry Spell man represents Attorney Membrino and Attorney John T. Monzani reDreeents Fal1On.

 Washington, Dec -- GU. P.) - Breweries all over the cOuntry are ready to start relieving thirst and unemployment the moment con. gress says the word.
 Beer on minutes notice is promised. Barrels are cooling in the brewery cellars. although the fate of beer bills is uncertain in the present congress.
 Inquiries of brewers throughout the country by the United Press reveal that most of them are pre- pared for fast production but are uncertain how they will be permit ted to sell. Some have large stocks on hand ageing now. Inquiries were made chiefly in 15 states which have repealed state enforcement.
 Restoration of beer in Nevada would be merely technicality If reports from there are correct. At countless places of business. 1t Is said, beer is being served which carries it's own authority.
 Legalization of beer would find the Carson Brewing Company. a famous establishment of Carson City dating back to Civil, War days. ready to load it's trucks on n intrl- ute's notice with the same sort of brew that quenched the thirst of the fans the day Bob FitzsimmoDs and Gentleman Jim Corbett fought theirN historic battle there.
 The Reno BfeNing Company also Is ready to go into fufl-fiedEed op- eration on signal from Washington.
 Brewers in Albany, N. Y., said they were awaiting passage of a beer law before making plans for distribution.
 we have made no plans yet" said H. J., McKeon, manager of the Dobler Brewery. We cannot tell how we are going to distribute beer. We will have to wait until the federal government and the state button will be by kegs or bottles or in what manner the law will say'we should sell beer"
 Beer at nickel glass in nice beer halls for ladies and gentle men"-those are his words was forecast by Anton Scheu. for 30 years brewmaster at the Centen- nial Brewery in Butte. Mont.
 If beer comes back" he said, brewers plan to have nice beer halls for ladies and gentlemen open for all to see but DO bars. I think most beer will be bottled. with few kegs sold. Restaurants also will sell if revenue measures are not raised above the former tax of SC q bar. rel, 1t is pr0bab ble we will have beer at a nickel a glass;"
 The Montana Brewing Company at Great Falls, Mont, is ready to manufacture. beer immediately once congress legalizes 1t, the United Press was told by Walter H. Jeii- Een, official of the company,
 The Butte Brewing Company likewise is prepared for immediate resurl ption of , pre-war business but, as with the case of the Mon- tana Brewing Company. the meth cd of distribution IA uncertain.
