That's not a very definite state

I could worm out of him. And if
you'll read between the lines. you'll
catch the suggestion that Tony
feels he has at least an even
chance.
Ambers was even more evasive.
Honestly. he was shy as a fan

of a winner a bit difficult, though,
for you can't, in making a choice,

for Tony.

.RICHETTI CRACKS
TRIES TO END LIFE
Ozark Badman Makes Futile
Suicide Attempt.
By United Press

By United Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo, July g.
Adam Richetti, the tough Ozark
badman who ran with Charles
pretty Boy) Floyd until he was
shot to death in Ohio, lost his nerve
today and tried to commit suicide.
Richettti is under sentence to
hang for his part in the Union Sta
ton massacre in which four officers
and a prisoner we're killed.
Richetti, held in death row in the
county jail, climbed to the top of
his bunk and leaped head first to
the concrete floor. Dazed but able
to get to his feet, he then beat his
head against the bars Of his cell.
Guards heard the commotion,
rushed in and restrained him. His
injuries were not serious, doctors
said, and he was not removed from
the death cell.
