TYPE OF SURGERY
1000 YEARSOLD
HELPED DILLINCER
GAVE DESPERATE NEW FACE
N WITH REMOVAL OF TELL
TALE SCARS. sTRAIcHTEN-
ING OF NOSE

NEW YORK, Aug. 9. The
plastic surgeons art which lifted
John Dillinger's face, removed
tell-tale sears and Strengthened
his nose. goes back to wsrs and
jealousies of more than 1000
years ago.
The thing that was done to Dill
fingers face is first described,
historically, by the physician
Galen in $50 A. ID. Then it was
common to excise" the "callosi-.
ties left by cuts about lips and
nose, and to pull the skin together
to hide them.
Cuts on lips and noses We're i'm
cidents of sword fighting, and in
some oriental countries there was
"a special custom permitting
jealous husbands to cut their
wives noses.
Today the removal of facial
scars. such as Dillinger's, is about
the simplest and commonest of
the plastic surgery achievements.
In principle it is done as described
by Galen in the old Roman days.

of the local navy yard, was also "a

There was beauty contest
conducted among the officers of
the National Guard, with four
ladies acting as judges. This was
an outstanding feature of the
luncheon program, and furnished
much amusement for the large
number in attendance. Decision
in the matter as to the winner Of
the contest was withheld for the
present, but will be announced
later, as the judges stated that the
task was very difficult one, re-
curing futher deliberation as to
who was really the ''prettiest" of
the bunch"

Once Rich Widow Of Prince Dies
Leaving No Worldly Possessions
Obs Assoclated Pressl

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-Two
friends averted a potter's field
burial for Mrs. Katherine Rigo
Gordon, widow of Prince Rigo. fa-
nous gypsy violinist, with whom
she once toured Europe accom-
panied by 40 servants.
For nearly a day after her
death, the body lay unclaimed in
a hospital. Then Frank Parish,
an acrobat, and Mary Davis, both
of New York, arranged to have
the remains taken to a funeral
chapel.
1t was still uncertain who
would pay the funeral expenses
but it was said definitely there
would be no pauper's funeral.
Taken to a hospital charity
ward from her squalid tenement
rooms, Mrs. Gordon died Sunday,
penniless and alone. Nothing re-
manned of the fortunes which had
enabled her to achieve a colorful,
glamorous life on two continents.
She was So years old.
With her in death she carried
the secret of her origin, of her
parentage, the place and date of
her birth. She was reported to
be the daughter of former Yale
professor, but the university rec
ords failed to show an instructor
of that name.
Emil K. Ellis, a lawyer, close
friend and one-time musical part
ner of the late Prince Rigo, dis
closed Mrs Gordon had told him
she came to this country as a
young girl from her native Hun

BERLIN, Aug. 9.-There were
paradoxes in the personality of
Paul Won Hindenburg, seemingly
incongruous joinings of the stern
disciplinarian, tender sentimental
list and jovial joker.
In the early months of his first
term there were cries from the
nationalists, whose votes put him
in office for more power for the
president" But those demands
subsidized quickly as the seasoned
fighter demonstrated he could
stay within the German constitu-
ton and yet exert a lot of person
al pressure.
Under ChancellOrs Bruening,
Won Papen and Won Schleicher, thc
immediate predecessors of Hitler,
he showed his mettle especially
when emergency conditions Of UNI
rest caused Article 48 of the basic
law to be invoked. That article
gave the president power to pro
mulgate decree laws and linden
burg used it fearlessly, issuing
structures which cut deeply into
the pocketbooks of every citizen
and circumscribed their daily &C
Invites.
Soldierly Discipline
He expected every man, woman
and child in the reich to assent To
these DEGREES with a soldierly re
Spouse, and he was not disappOint-
ed.
Similarly it was his endorse
ment of the LOcarno pact in 1925,
which swung the extreme rightsts
into line for its acceptance and his
personal appeal to the people on
March Is, 1880, after he had sign
ed legislation giving effect to the
Young plan, stifled the murmurs
against that financial burden
Yet this man who could sternly
impose his will upon a whole ma
ton had an underlying stratum Of
real tenderness in his makeup.
There was for example, the time

The violinist was then, the hus-,
band of Clara Ward, noted beauty
and a Detroit heiress. She had de
serted her husband, Prince de
Chimay, to rove the world with
Rigo.
The gypsy musician and Mrs.
Emerson fell in love and, after
the Ward fortune had been squan-
dered, they were marrid.
A new era of lavish living open
ed for Rigo and his bride. They
breakfasted on champagne in

prodigious earnings were spent
with ease.
The violinist, never regarded as
masterful musician but drawing
huge crowds through his colorful
personality, began to slip. His in
come dwindled, and with his wife,
he established Hungarian res
taurant in New York.
The venture failed and in 1927
Rigo died, leaving his widow pen
niless.
Two years later she married
Edward Gordon, former heuten-
ant governor of Florida, and they
moved to baronial mansion
overlooking the Hurson river.
The depression swept away the
Gordon fortune and he died.
Mrs. Gordon finally was evict-
ed by a foreclosure on the Spuy-
ten Duyvil chateau and she drift
ed from one Manhattan tenement
to another. When she died, an oil
painting of Clara Ward and an
old violin, neither worth much,

as to the names of the fish and
remarking on the exquisite color

and others.
DIR. Van Dcusen said he hoped
to be able to make arrangements
to return to Key West in the early
part of October, or as soon as the
aquarium is finished and assist in
making the selections for the
tanks and also in preparing the
tanks with coral and other deep
sea grOwths to give the tanks a
