KIDNAPERS ARE
 BEING PUNISHED
(Continued from Page 1.)

Banghart's conviction coupled r with the assassination of Charles Gce wagon) Connors earlier in the day, freed the northwest side of the last important members of the gang which once patrolled it's streets with machine guns and shotguns.
 Banghart was identified os the "cruel' guard who after taking part last July l, in Factors ab- duction, threatened the one-time Halsted street barper with death and kicked him in the abdomen. With Connors, Banghart was iden- tified as the gangster who sought to collect a second $50,000 ransom from Factor after the first ransom of $70,000 had been paid.
 Connors' death was blamed by police on the efforts of the Touhys to raise money for recent court fights against the Factor kidnap- ing charges.
 When police removed a glove from Connor's hand they found a penny clasped in the hand. Isaac Costner, Touhy gang member who turned states evidence, remarked: Poor old Charlie, he was always tight with his money"
 Police believed Connors had re- fused to contribute satisfactorily to the Touhy defense fund.
 50 Years For StrewI
 Albany, N. Y., Mar 14-(UP)- Nanny Strewl, Albany police char acter, will be sentenced Friday to 50 years imprisonment for kid T~1 ntrnnvhn Ir member of the O'Connell family that wields powerful infiunece in New York state democratic poli- tics.
 Strewl was convicted by d jury last night. He received the verdict calmly. His aged mother wept softly. While the jury was delib- erating, she was urged to go home.
 "Oh, mo-" she said, T am used to waiting for Juries."
 Strewl has served two terms in Atlanta federal penitentiary. Young O'Connell was seized July z, 1893. A note from the abduc- tors instructed his family to name a list of persons from which they could select an intern ediary. The first list was unsatisfactory and Strewrs name was included in the second. He was immediately se- lected by the abductors and his negotiations resulted in O'Connell's release 21 days after he was kid naped for $40,000 ransom. The state not only charged that Strewl was one of the kidnapers, but maintained he wrote a number of the ransom notes. OConnell identified him as one of the men he saw in the New York apartment while he was being held. The defense maintained that Strewl was being "railroaded" through the political infiunece of the O'Connell family. Daniel H. Prior, who was attorney for the late notorious gangster, Jack degs) Diamond, was Strewls law yer

 Foulois would not say when he intended to have the army resume operations, but indicated that he planned to make a personal in- spection of principal routes and army flying equipment before giv- ing the order.
 Foulois took off at 9:35 a. m. from Boiling Field for Newark, N. J. he was accompanied by Maj.- Gen. Spatz. Foulois intends to fly to Chicago later and thence to St Louis and Atlanta.
 Air corps officials said Foulois might announce the army plans at Newark, Chicago or elsewhere.
 The postoffice department has prepared schedules for nine basic routes, but is withholding an- nouncement until the army says it is ready to go ahead.
 Flights Cancelled. New York, Mar. 14-UP)- American Airways today announced cancellation of several regularly scheduled passenger and express flights. A statement ascribed the curtailment to loss of air mail revenues.
 Officials of American Airways an operating division of the Avia tion corporation, said the cancel led flights were inaugruated as mail and express trips but later were expanded to carry passengers. Can- cellation of the air mail contracts made flights exclusively with ex- press unesesntial and combination express and passengers flights un- profitable.
 It was understood that cancel lation throughout the service num- bered five express and four pas- senger and express flights. Express will be carried only on passengers flights.
 Fights cancelled included the early morning plane to Boston carrying express and passengers.

STATE

Two outstanding feature pictures are offered patrons of warmers State today, tomorrow and Friday. Headlining the program Is "The Countess of Monte Cristo", a farce comedy exploiting the adventures of a couple of movie extras who impersonate an expected royal guest and maid at a fashionable hotel, in a mad fling to taste the ecstacies of luxury that wealth alone can provide. The amusing experiences in which they are cat apulted provide countless laughs and all in all the production is~one that provides the type of enter tainment always highest in the far yor of local theatergoers. The cast is headed by Fay Wray with Paul Lukas, Patsy Kelly and Reginald Owen.
 The companion feature is Wharf Angel" tale of life, love and adventure along the Barbary coast. The cast is headed by Vic- tor McLaglen, Alison Skipworth and Preston Foster, who portray lovable types found in this melting pot of human cargoes from the far corners of the, earth. Some splendid photography is seen in this production and the direction is surpassed only by the outstand- ing individual performances of the cast.
 Saturday brings Ruth Chatter ton in the most brilliant picture of her magnificent screen career :'Journal of A Crime" with Adolph Menjou and big cast. Also Let's Be Ritzy", a new hit being shown for the first time in the east, dur ing it's engagement at the State. the son. Seth, who believes that life hangs on a fraternity pin.
 Una Merkel serves this typical family as the housemaid, "Birdie" and c. Henry Gordon lays his,vil- lainy aside long enough to give an excellent performance as the boss who threatens Barrymore with im- prisonment for a forty thousand dollar embezzlement.
 "No More Women" Is the second feature starring Edmund Lowe and Victor McLaglen appearing to- gether on the screen again in a hectic tale of deep-sea diving. they ransacked sunken ships and sunk themselves on baby face! Human sharks at sea, ashore they were jelly fish having . whale of time.
 It's your trest again with double bill that can't help but sat- isfy.

Personalities
By Nellie DOdsOn

To Pattie, Matte, and Katie:

talked about school and such, but

would have found myself slipping

are two Bill Simms in town, and
both of 'em are easy on the eyes.
The other evening while AL
NORTH, JOHNNIE THOMAS,

driving nonchalantly down Uni

breezing along in a car, whacked
into their gas buggy, and turned
them over three times. Fortunate
ly, they were all in the front seat
because the rear end of the car was
demolished. Robbie sez that the
first thing he was aware of afte;
the crash was some lady among
the crowd that quickly gathered
wailirg: "I just KNOW they're al
killed." But no one got so much
as a scratch!
If you see a certain society play
boy WHO has been in the habit of
wearing a hat, strolling around
without enc, it is because he forgot
his new fall lid when he had to
leave a charming rendezvous with
a charming lady in such a hurry
that he would have set "a new

Society playboys seem always to
be leaving some place in undigni-

brother isn't going to leave quite
fast enough, and then there will
be pul-enty for the tongue-waggers

TWO LINE CHANGES
 FOR NAUC ATUCK. TEAM TOMORROW.
AnsOnia High to Wind Up 1894 Season for Foley
 Squad in Borough

Naugatuck, Nov. 2S-A change on the left side of the line of the Naugatuck high school football team will be made before tomor- rows game with Ansonia high, Coach Peter J. Foley said today. It will be at tackle and at end. Just who will start was not announced but the veteran coach feels that this side of the line has been weak all season.
 Visitors Favored
 The game will be the last of the season for Naugatuck. Ansonia is the favorite to win because it has had better season and severely trimmed Central high which con quered Naugatuck. However, it would be no great surprise if Nau- gatuck won for a few players on the team only need to find them- selves and the Garnet will be no pushover.
 Big Chance
 Naugatucka has everything to gain and nothing to lose. It will have the opportunity of closing a poor season with a victory over an old rival. If Naugatuck wins it will have .500 percent record for the season with four victories and four defeats.
 However, Ansonia which has been humbled many times in the past. sometimes severely trounced by Naugatuck teams. feels 1t now has the chance to get revenge and will not be reluctant about try ing to do this. A good game is ex- pected and a large crowd will at- tend. The game will start at 2:16 N. m.

TO-DAY.S SPORT PARADE

here I have eight gems, exclusive all. I will read them off, and you yell at me to stop when I should call one you must have. Ready?"
 Yes I said, firing the pistol I keep on hand for such emergen- cies, and MT Mendel was off.
 "One, Reggie McNamara's small feet; two, things you may not know about six-day race; three, eating around clock with Bobby Thomas and George Dempsey; four, guts; five, Paris father of bike craze; six-say" demanded MT Mendel, when you gonna stop me? Amt they to your liking?"
 So much, I answered that I must have them all; to give my read CTS Reggie McNamara's small feet" at the expense of "eating around clock with Thomas and Dempsey" say, would be unfair. "I see," said MT Mendel. "Six, special on Georgetti; seven, Daniel Webster revamped, and eight, black cats and superstitions."
 He left all eight of the exclusive, carbon-copied gems with us. Ob- viously space forbids me. giving SAASAA " J0o CAA tOlO, fCI OdltIll dIlu nux vomica, but I have extracted the meat from each, and know that the following, in which MT Mendefs text has been carefully followed will provide you with educational, as we'll as entertain ing, reading:
 McNamara's small feet: Reggie McNamara. who, at 50, is about to engage in his Hath grind, knows the value of giving the "tootsies'' proper attention. Feet are im- portant," says the iron man, 1T wear size 1-2 shoes, but due to an, exceptionally high instep must have them especially wide. I must have three pairs-sprint, lounging, and relax shoes"
 Eating around clock: Thomas eats baked apples and prunes at 3:30 a. m.; Thomas eats mush- room omelette, corn fakes and cream, filet mignon and baked ap- pie at a. m.
 And Besides
 Things you may not know about six-day race: That Georgetti is highest paid rider in world today and makes $25,000 year riding; that any time team is more than five laps behind the leaders, the referee may lift it right out of race; that a riders feet describe 24O revolutions to a mile; that Ewald Wiesel, German rider, eats a platter of raw hamburger mixed with raw egg every afternoon at o'clock.
 Cuts: McNamara is still riding despite list of injuries which in- clude fractured skull, broken nose. broken jaw, broken right arm, broken left arm, broken ribs, brok- en collarbone (11 times).
 Paris father of bike craze: The bike was invented in 1890 by a certain M. De Sirvac of Paris. M. De Sirvac sported flowing whiskers. and created sensation when he first appeared on Rue St Honore atop his new contraption.
 Special on Georgetti: Georgettis father. once a gymnasium instruc- tor, had great strength and France inherited that power and stamina. and he has been honored by King victor Emanuel and Premier Mus solini.
 Black cats and superstitions: Letourner must wear number "13." Freddie Spencer will not race without his gold locket around his neck; Franz Deulberg shudders when anyone whistles and Babe Ruth always touches one of the bases on his way in from the out
