Firemen'S Great Fete

Rain did it's best to halt the
annual Firemen's parade yester.
day. But it couldn't spoil one Of
the best spectacles Of the year.
The bands played, the march
ers marched, the fire apparatus
rumbled up Pennsylvania Avenue,
despite the downpour that started
about half an hour after the trek
started.
And more than hali Of the 100,.
900 persons who packed the Ave-
nue. to witness the event stayed,
rain or no rain, to witness the
colorful affair.
80 Floats In Chain
Arrayed in their dress uniforms,
firemen from nine States march
ed proudly in the parade, which
included $50 pieces of apparatus.
IS bands and 80 decorated floats.
The firemen didn't seem to
mind the rain. They are USED
to water and discomfort. But
the storm brought dismay to the
women spectators who were
dressed in their new fall finery'
The Blue Eagle of the NRA
was prominent in the displays
on the floats. There were groups
on the floats showing how the
NRA is bringing about a return
of better times.
Five thousand firemen marched
in the parade, while 5000 other
persons, soldiers, sailors, marines
and members of civic and fra
ternal organizations also partlcl-
pated in the affair.
One of the entries that drew
great applause was Old Tom
last of famous trio OF fire
horses of the old days, back IN
the harness era.
Old Engines Shown
Ancient and modern fire-fight-
ing apparatus was shown in the
parade, with the Oldest engine
in the United States being
pulled alongside Of the very
latest in high pressure engines.
With the hundreds of units
and scores of floats entered, the
judges experienced difficulty in
selecting the winners. To the
Alexandria fire department went
the first prize for the best float.
The Washington Police De
partment took second prize with
a model of the police radio
broadcasting station, so designed
as to send out messages through
an amplifier along the line OF
march.
Before the parade started spec
tators we're entertained by BIZ
cycle and roller skating races,
clowns and mummers.
More than 100 persons tainted,

for Residents Near
District Line

The Prince Georges Gas Corpo-
ration, headed by w. L. Sperry, Of
the Washington Gas Company,
was given a public utilities permit
by the Prince Georges board Of
county commissioners this morn
ing to build a 100000 gas storage
plant near Chillum.
The gas company was repre-
sented by j. Enos Ray, county
political leader, in its petition.
The purpose of the plant is not to
manufacture gas, but to store it
for use by families in nearby
Maryland and along the District
line in Washington.
The permit was issued on
recommendation of the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission, which approved the pro-
ject August 20, although the
property will border a park area.
The company was incorporated
under the laws of Maryland. The
plant will consist of a steel shell
303 feet in diameter and 155 feet
in height. It is to hold 100000
cubic feet. The property consists
of more than % acres between

JUDGE MENACED
BY |RATE MAN

A hot flatiron can do a lot of
damage on a judicial head, decid-
ed Justice of the Peace George N.
Cox of OXon Hill last night as he
set bond of $500 on Noah Poole,
so, of near Fort Washington, for
the charge of possession of five
gallons Of intoxicating liquor.
Poole was lodged in the Upper
Marlboro Jail pending a hearing
in police court Friday.
The arrested man is said to have
become quarresome with Judge
Cox over being raided on Labor
Day by Sergt. Arthur Hepburn and
hot words led to more tangible
weapons.
Menacing Mrs. Cox, who was
ironing clothes nearby, Poole is
said to have picked up the hot iron
and threateningly advanced to-
ward Judge Cox.
Sergeant Hepburn, however,
managed to quiet Poole, and he
was taken to the Jail. Witnesses
said he did not strike the judge.

ably prevented invasion Of the

ed Mexican rebels, residents here
have learned from a book by a
famous German spy.
A short while after Huerta had
conspired with Capt. Franz Rim

he died here. Under terms out
lined in the book, Germany was
to supply funds and ammunition
for Huerta's revolution to reclaim
the Mexican presidency in return
for Mexico's support in an Ameri-
can invasion.
Many tales abound as to how
Huerta met death. One is that he
was poisoned. Rintelen relates he
was warned in New York, "You
are being watched. Look out.
Don't wait for Huerta. He has
been poisoned"
Another version Is that mys-
terious man slashed him to death.

INDIANAPOLIS, May 80. A

today, ready to risk their lives for

expected to jam the grandstands

shortly after daybreak today caused
a scene reminiscent of the Okla

choice position on and near the
treacherous turns, where most of

Frame FavOrite
But he is not the betting faYorite.
That honor belongs to crafty Fred
Frame, 1882 winner, and one of
the four former champions in the
field. The other former winners,
who hope to tie Tommy Milton as
the only man ever to win the race
twice, are Lou Schneider, Louis
Meyer, and Slim Corum.
Frame is the favorite because
those who wager know they can de-
pend upon him to drive a smart
race. Despite the fact that he will
drive one of the fastest cars in the
country, Frame will not attempt
to set the early pace. He prefers
to lag during the first two or three
hundred miles, and save his run
ming for the final miles when the
early leaders have wilted under
their efforts.
Other heavily backed drivers
were Ernie Triplett and Babe Stapp
of Los Angeles, Howdy Wilcox, In

Spangler, sensational youngster of
Brook, Indiana, and Shorty Can't
Ion. .
Today's race was expected to be
the most exciting of all time from
the spectators point of view, for
the rule prohibiting cars to carry
more than is gallons of fuel means
many pit stops. And the more pit
stops the more often the lead
changes. =
