TEXANS TROUBLED BY EARTH CRACKS

Amarillo, Tex.-(UP)-Mystcli- l. ous cavings and cracks in the earth's surface are worrying far mers and highway officials, who fear that there may be gigantic underground cavern beneath the plains in this territory.
 The affected area is near High way No. 5, about midway between Claude and Goodnight, at the point where the highway drops down off the caprock.
 Ten years ago in this same To- cality a four-foot chasm suddenly opened up across the highway and ran through farms for about a mile. It was so deep that fence posts dropped into 1t could not be heard when they struck bottom. It closed gradually, following heavy rains. but traces of it still are vis- ible.
 The new crevice is much smaller than the first, but highway off cials are worried for fear a major chasm may open suddenly across the main highway. The crevice parallels the road for about 100 feet and is about four feet wide. Unlike the old crevice, the new one was not caused by daividing of the earth's surface, but rather by a sinking of the earth as though section of the ceiling oi some underground cavern had given way.

Judgment Suspended Until Tomorrow In

Michael Butkus Gets Continuance for Alleged Attack on 76-Year-OId Newspaperman- Many Christmas Activities Scheduled for Remainder of This Week
NAUGATUCK
Win ], Bax,er Corrcsuondcnt--Pho NauRatnck 67s-9

Naugatuck, Dec 19.-Judgment was suspended in court to-day un- til Tomorrow in the case of Ml- chael Butkus, 51, of Millville, who was accused of assaulting Arthur F. TurKington, circulation manager of the Waterbury Republican, American in Naugatuck. The al- leged assault took place last Friday and Butkus was arrested yesterday.
 The case was continued until to- morrow while police investigate files to determine whether or not Bukus has served a jail sentence hitehrto. He said he had not but court officials were not sure.
 All then testimony was taken however. Mir Huntington said he discussed a matter of business relative to work of two Butkus boys, who have acted as newsboys. He talked with Mrs Butkus, he said, and did not say anything to Mr Butkus until Butkus asked him if he were going to discharge the boys. He replied in the affirma- tive and then, he claimed, But kus pushed him out into the yard, picked up large club and hit him three times near the hip with It. Huntington said he was wearing q heavy overcoat.
 pr Charles s. Kennedy, who treated Turkington said there was a bruise four inches long and one inch wide on the hip. The mark will remain there for about six weeks, he said. Turkington is 76 years old.
 ;,,er UNi1v l. sF,c ton out of the house, although he admitted he ordered him out. He said after Turkington got out, he put his head in the door and cursed him (Butkus). Butkus said he then got light switch not as thick as a mans finger, which his chill dren had been playing with, and hit Turkington once over the hip not severly. Turkington denied swearing at Butkus.
 Sam Pelgro, who accompanied Mir Turkington to Millville said Butkus threatened to him him, If he came into the yard. Prosecus- ing Attorney Martin Caine said it was obviously a case where But kus took the law into his own hands and tried to administer jus IlCe nlInSGll. TIC kus' story as lie, pointing out q s'baby switch" could hardly leave such bruise when Mir Turkington was wearing heavy coat. He asked a To-day jail sentence at least.
 Deputy Judge Hugh Hearns who presided started to fine Butkus $25 and costs but delayed tine l..1 1.-.. l@. a.1 whetehr Butkus had bene in jail before. Butkus' wife said he hadn't as long as she know him.
 Jomes McDermott was ordered to take the pledge to abstain from liquor drinking and was given ! 3O-dny jail sentence suspnded un- til the time he breaks the pledge. All other sentences against him were ordered suspended. He was arreBted yesterday on a charge Of int0xication.

Members of the board of war den and burgesses are hoping that If Santa Claus decides to pay a visit to the town hall this Christ mass, he will leave an ash tray or two around so they can have one on the nights they meet. Usually preceding every monthly or special meeting there is frantic hunt for an ash tray and finally one is dug ups'in one of the other offices in fhe building. The courtroom prop CT does not seem to rate one. This occurred last Monday night prior to the special meeting. So some Of the members are planning to give Santa a private tip on the urgent need for one. Certainly some of the sessions are heated enough and smoking. they claim, helps to soothe troubled nerves. So q gift of an ash try might really be of benefit to the town.
