 All night. detectives labored to crack Carlstrom's story and today they studied information from Miss Esther Ellison and from friends and acquaiiitances of Carl strom.
 T did not see Elvert CarlstrOm on the night of March 1, 1es2,- Miss Ellison said. "I did not see him after Christmas, 1931."
 Her statement, however, did not necessarily contradict CarlstFom'g story as he did not say he saw her the night of the crime. Miss Elli- son knew Mrs Hauptmann. al- though Carlstrom testified that he was not acquainted with either the defendant or his wife. The state, however, believes 1t has evidence to show that CarlstFom knew Haupt- mann before 1892.

GIrl Refutes Carlstrorn


 New oYrk, Jan 31--(UP)-Thc New York Daily News in Q copy right story today quoted Esther Ellison as heatedly denying that she had a date with Elvert Carl strom the night the Lindbergh baby was kidnapped.
 Carlstrom, testifying as an alibi witness for Bruno Richard Haupt- mann in Remington yesterday, said he had gone to the Bronx that night to see Miss Ellison and saw Hauptmann in the bakery where Mrs Hauptmann was employed. He did not actually state he had had a date with Miss Ellison.
 Miss Ellison, the Daily News said, admitted knowing CarlstrOm but stopped seeing him after Christmas of 1881. She described him as a moody" person. She said she was a good friend of Mrs Hauptmann.

GIRL FOOTBALL STAR CRIES AS CAMERAS CLICK
Esther Burnham May Quit Team Due to Publicity;
 Wears No Helmet,

Deep River, Conn, Nov. 5-lUPO Burnham'e dislike for pub licity and photographers may lead her to abandon football career, unless she places the honor and glory of the team above her person. al feelings.
 Esther, l4-year-old star center of the Middlefield Air Cadets, arrived at this decision yesterday when she led her team onto the field here against the friendly Indians to find herself surrounded by newspaper men and cameras. She stubbornly refused to play and sat on the side lines until the beginning of the second half when loyalty to the team persuaded her to get into the line to turn back fierce drive which threatened the Cadets goal-' line.
 Without helmet or stockings she ripped through the line to block a kick deep in the enemy territory and. paved. the way TOT the lone score of the game, which ended 6-O in favor of the Cadets.
 However, no sooner had she exc cuted this play than the flashlights of photographers, lining the side lines, began popping and Esther, in tears, ran of the field and sought refuge in an automobile. A substi- tute was sent in and the team held tight until the final whistle.
 Nothing could lure the feminine star back onto the field and she turned deaf ear to apologies of newspapermen and their promises to not take any more pictures.
 T don't want my pictures in the paper" she sobbed. You don't know what it means when I have to go back to school"
 Wants to Quit
 Apparently her mind was un- changed to-day about abandoning football. Glowing accounts of her ability on the field failed to soothe her injured feelings and it was problematical whether she would start against Shelton this Saturday.
 Coach J. Duncan Sibley was in a quandary.
 T don't know what we'd do with out Esther" he said. She's the mainStay of the team"

 New York, Nov. 5.-(UP)-The thinning ranks of undefeated, un- tied gridiron powers-no at eleven -coutain three teams which never have had their names scrolled on footballs honor roll for perfect sea- sons.
 On the Verge New York university, Syracuse and Texas Christian all of them playing football since the turn of the century have enjoyed unde- feated seasons, but always their rec ord have been marred by one or more ties.
 Of the other eight conetnders for clean 1935 slates, most are seeking to scale heights which they occu- pied ten or more years ago.
 And, oddly, majority of these current giants are being led by coaches who are comparatively new in their jobs. California and Southern Methodist have new men at the helm. Five others have coaches starting their second year.
 Leonard B. Stub" Allison has brought the Golden Bears of Ber- kelley through seven games without a loss.
 Madison Bell is the other first year" man. Southern Methodist hasn't had 8. perfect seaso nsince 1923.
 Most prominent among the ''sec- ond year" men is Elmer Layden at Notre Dame, member of the famed -four horseman" eleven during the Rockne era. Layden seems a good bet to. lead his team to its first per- feet season since 193O, with North western, Army and Southern Cali- fornia remaining.
 Going Good
 Carl Snavely of North Carolina, Nal Stevens at N. Y. u, Leo R. Dutch" Meyer of Texas Christian and Earl Red" Blaik, Dartmouth, are others who have perfect teams as their second years near 9 close.
 Dartmouth last was undefeated in 1925. N. Y. U. and T. c. U. never have been in that class.
 The other outsider" Syracuse. is headed by a comparative veteran l-Vic Hanson, who took over in 1850. Columbia, Colgate ard Mary land stand in his way to fIawless year.
 The other three perfect elevens- Minnesota, Marquetta, and Prince ton-have been on top in recant years. Minnesotat twas undefeat- ed last year.
 Princeton, with Herbert O. Fritz" Crisler starting his fourth year, last had perfect year in 1883. Mar quette last had an undefeated, m- tied season in 1923, under Frank J. Murray.

 New York, Nov. 5-(UP)-That was double dose of woe the Irish of Notre Dame handed out when they came from nowhere to whip Ohio States behemoths last Satur- day afternoon. Dose No. 1, of course was the one forced past the reluct- ant palates of the Buckeyes, who went into the game pretty damn sure they were the hottest football club in the country.
 Dose No. 2, was the one handed out to Notre Danes rivals for the honor of whopping it up for the dear old Pasadena Chamber of Com merce in the Rose Bowl on New Years day. If Notre Dame had lost, the race fo rthe Rose Bowl nomina- tion would have been as, wide open as Paddy'S place on election night. But Notre Dame didn't lose, and to- day stands as the aeam most likely to get the trip. Let the Irish win their remaining games against Northwestern, Army and Southern California, and they're a cinch.
 They're cince for several req sons. In the first place, when they whipped Ohio State the Irish be- came, in the minds of millions of citizens, anyway, the top team in the United States. This because Ohio State had been ballyhooed as the club any team seeking No. 1 hanking must beat. Whether Notre Dame actually is the most powerful eleven in the country doesn't matter. The people think it is. which is suffi- cient.
 In the second place, Notre Dame is a tremendous draw at the box office, and click of the turnstiles is the musical accompaniment the Rose Bowl boys insist on having for thei rshow. They care little for that art-for- -art's sake business.
 Right now Notre Dame has nine rivals for the Rose Bowl bid in the united, undefeated teams of Min nesota, Princeton, North Carolina, N. Y. U, Texas Christian, Southern Methodist, Syracuse, Dartmouth and Marquette. Most of them you may throw out for one reason or another. Princeton belongs to the Big Three high . hat shooting and-gun club, and woul dsnub Rose Bowl bid if invited. Minnesota wouldn't accept either, as the Big Ten conference will have no part of post-season games.
 An unfortunate schedule blocks the path of the Texas terrors, the Christians and the Methodists. Both have late season games on the coast, and the western customers wouldn't pay to see 'em twice. Moreover, they

Not a week ago, you may have read here of the insstence of like Avery Brndage General Charles Sherr and others that America should not be kept from the Oympics because of politics. religion other req favored by American Jewry remarked upon the situation and since that time two interesting things have developed.

 On that angle was bold enough to comment: If America enters the Olympcs in 1936 my only hope is that an athlete of Jewish extraction does not defeat German in any athletic event, for if that happens, hell will break loose and murder may result To some such idea may have seemed bit farfetched at the time.
 Subsequently, learn that one Jew already HAS been murdered because his football playing beating German team at Ratibor, Slesia. His name was Edmund Baumgartner, Polands champion football player. When the German mob at the game saw their team to lose, they stormed the field aided by

 When the German team was losing in that football game, at Snesja ONE PERSON cried out: "Ki the Jew' even as the rabbe of Rome did two thousand years ago. Soon THOUSANDS yelling, raving mad with the blood lust in their eyes: "Ki the Jew THEY DID. And now comes the OlyInpics Without he a Hitler will take credit for everything But Hitler cannot control Nazi mob that breaks loose with MURDER in their hearts.
