Denial was made today to re-

Him In Jail

"Hello, Buster Lindsay" a
friendly greeting from some we'll

rest of Emery W. (Buster) Lind
say, 426 Ronda Street, late We'd

According to Bernard Schafer,
taxi driver, Lindsay hired a cab
in Minneapolis to take him to St.

tavern Lindsay is alleged to have
given Schafer a check for $25
signed J. Jamie, receiving his
change.
After the transaction as the
driver started to drive off, some
one called out, Hello, Buster Lind

who arrested Lindsay.
Police records indicate Lindsay
has served terms in the city work
house on similar charge. Friends
of Lindsay assert he was under
the influence of liquor at the time
of the Wednesday occurrence.

PERSONALITIES
By Nellie Dodson

It's so hot today that every
thing sticks to everything else, but
the weather just suits my mood. I
feel like snatching someone's teeth
out, but everyone is very nice and
so I can't find any reason to flare
up. What a summer this is turn
ing out to be. It's bad enough
having to spend vacation around
these two blastedly dull towns, but
it's worse when you have b. f
miles away. I see the rest of
these dear, darling couples moon
ing around each other, and it
makes me very unhappy. I hope
it stays hot, I hope it gets hotter,
and it can even get hotter than
that for all I care. And if I hear
another woman weeping on my
shoulder about her heart troubles,
Pm going to explode completely.
Pm miserable enough without TAX
ing on anybody else's grief. Hang
it. And besides, it looks very
much as if Pm going to have hay
fever. I can't quit sneezing. Hang
it.
The University sent out marks
this week. I got &C" out of one
course I was certain I was going
to get "B" in. So I sailed over
to the campus, and went calling on
my instructor to ask "How Gomez"
The old dodo told me my average
had hit the "B" mark easy enough,
but I had cut class too much, and
brought my tentative average
downe one point. Piffle. A couple
of piffles. I hope he gets hay
fever too.

that when his sweet-cakes arrived

down town to the radio store to try
and talk the proprietor into letting
him rent the radio on credit, but

ATHENS, Oct. 25.-Troops and
warships were sped to Crete, south
of the Greek mainland, today to
crush Republican revolution
against the proposed restoration of
King George II.
Four hundred and fifty repub-
lican leaders were arrested in a
series of raids here, including
George Papandreou, head of the
new republican party, who was
held in jail.
Thirty thousand armed independ-
ents and republicans were report
ed in the revolving force n Crete
and it was feared the uprising might
spread to the mainland
Feeling is bitter regarding the
proposed restoration and republic
ans and liberals intend to boycott
the plebiscite to be held Nov on
the question of asking George to
return to the throne from which
he was ousted in 1922.
The army is to take the oath of
allegiance to George tomorrow, and
the day has been proclaimed a ma

the capture of Thessalonica from
the Turks in 1912.
