WILL ROGERS Savs:

CAL, Feb. 14.-Holland had a
mutiny on one of her battle
Ships. Now she is about to have
one on her other one.
Our Navy is out at sea in the
Pacific trying to solve what
they call "problem IA" " They'd
better see if they are going to
be able to solve "problem 13"
first. "Problem 13" is to get
the Government to give 'em
enough money to have a Navy.
If "probIem 13" isn't solved,
we'd better just go to Japan
and say:
1--WE will give you California,
but you, must also take the
rec and Hollywood"

Thanks for Anniversary
of Plague End.
BY MILTON BRONNER


LONDON, March 8.-Lent, a per-
iod always observed with great piety
in Oberammergau, is being given
special stress this year in Bavaria S
famous little mountain village.
This year of all years the villag-
ers are greeting the Easter season
with greater ceremony than usual,
because this is the Booth anniver-
sary of the great plague from which
they believe they were saved by
mass player.
They already are preparing for
next years re-enactment of the

tors vowed to do when the plague
subsidized, and as they first did in
1884.
In April begins the holy year in
stituted by the pope. Further, the
Passion Play is itself a re-enact-
ment of the events OF holy week,
and this summer the actors who
will play the roles next year will
be chosen by vote of the villagers.
as always has been their custom.
Already candidates for some OF
the roles are beginning to let their
hair and boards grow, for no make
up is allowed for the roles, and to
be elected the actors must look as
we'll as act the part.
Thus, Lent, eliminating In holy
week and Easter, is being especially
observed this spring in the little
mountain village which has won
world renown for its Catholic piety
And greater than ordinary fervor
is going into their preparations for
the miracle play which they still
enact regularly to fulfill 300-years
VOW.

FREE Lover OF
Wife IN DEATH
OF BANDNASTER
Strange Chicago Killing
Goes in Discard of
Murder Mysteries.
BY SAM KNOTT
United Press stan CORES pondent

CHICAGO, March 8.-One Of the
strangcst cases in the annals Of
crime has gone into the discard of
unsolved mysteries with the release
Of ex-Deputy Sheriff Carl Bradberry
from charges connected with the
Staying OF Captain Edwin Schild-
hauer.
The release Tuesday of Mrs.
Frances Schildhauer's confessed
lover brought an end for the time
being, and possibly forever, to posi-
bic solution Of a mystery as battling
as any ever imagined by a fiction
writer.
Bradberry had been held on
charges Of obstructing justice Au-
thorities held him principally in the
hope a break" would come, and he
: would be needed.
Freeing the former deputy was the
equivalent Of authorities admitting
they had lost their long fight to
find the slayer Of the handsome
bandmaster
1000 Persons Questioned
Although more than 1000 persons
had been questioned in the case,
Bradberry was the only one ever
arrested.
A hint that the case would be
dropped came last week when a
coroner's jury finally decided Schild-
hauer met death at the hands of
persons unknown"
Schildhauer was captain of the
band at Austin high school, one of
the largest prep" schools in the
country. He was 6 feet 2 inches
tall, weighed 30 pounds, had curly
black hair, handsome features and
a pleasing personality.
Soon after he went to the school,
he married Frances Birkenshire,
beautiful girl graduate, whom he
met while she was still a student
They lived in an Oak Park apart
ment below that occupied by Fran
ces' blind father and her mother.
On the night of last Dec. 10,
Schildhauer's body was found
where it had been tossed on
Cicero roadway in typical gang
ride" fashion.
Reveal Home as Love Nest
About the same time, Mrs.
Schildhauer reported he had been
kidnapped by two men who over
powered him as he left their apart
ment.
Revelation followed revelation.
Mrs. Schildhauer, who is 10 become
a mother in May, told police Ter
home had been a love nest" where
guests traded husbands and wives.
She admitted Bradberry was her
lover.
It was revealed that the band
masters life was heavily insured.
The policies were kept in his
mOther-in-laW's bank box.
Many persons were drawn direct
ly and indirectly INTO the case, some
testifying they knew of indiscre-
tons by the widow, others of quar-
rels, others of the strange life in
the Schildhauer and Birkenshire
flats.
Police announced many times
they felt certain" the case hinged
on Mrs. Schildhauer's love affairs.
She cOntended he was killed by
rival musicians" and hired a pri-
Vate detective TO solve the case.
He failed
