KENNAMER INSISTS

PAWNEE. Okla, Feb. 16.-Nine-
teen-year-old Phil Kennamer, men,
Der of the fast set of Tulsa society
charged with numbering his best
friend, overruled his attorneys to-
day and will take the stand in his

Inundated by hearing Miss Vir-

and his own father, Federal Judge
Franklin E. Kennamer describe him
as irresponsible and an addict of

could convince the jury of country
people that he was justified in kill
ing John F. Gorrell. %. He re-
sented particularly the stigma Of
temporary insanity with which his
defense seeks an acquittal.
His attorneys had planned to
keep him of the stand to forestall
cross examination. Kenn m r
claims he killed Gorreu because

All Correspondents Attribute
Executives Anger to
Indiana Story.
INCENSED BY RESULTS
indianapolis News Target
of President; Says He Was
'MiSinterpreted.'
BY DANIEL NJ. KIDNEY
Times staff Writer

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10
President Franklin D. Roose-
welt, incensed over being mis-
interpreted by the Indian
apolis News on the State
NRA controversy, yesterday
severely lectured CORES
pondents at his regular press
conference.
The Indianapolis News reporter
interpolated question on the In
diana NRA legislation into a to-
tally unrelated discussion early this
week, and, according to the PreSi-
dent himself, was guilty of "eXtraor-
binary "misinterpretation" in report
ing the answer.
The President, noted for his amia-
BILE relations with the press, is the
first chief executive in many adj
ministrations to make press confer
ences informal. His obviously sin
cere and intensely earnest oral
spanking of the correspondents was
attributed by all present as having
no other motivation than the News
story.
No Ground for Deductions
''You know President Roosevelt
told the press representatives yes
terday, that I neither comment, nor
am to be quoted, on any pending
legislation. 1t shouldn't be neces-
sary to remind you that questions
involving such matters should never
be asked.
when I say No to dismiss such
a question, there are no grounds
nor, reasons why any newspaper
should proceed to draw deductions
regarding my stand. This has hap
pened within the last week or two
weeks.
'Ninety-nine per cent of such de-
auctions are bound to be wrong"
When the President gave Mega
tive answer to the question as to
whether or not he is asking for
S-NRA legislation at this time it
was "misinterpreted by the News as
an expression of opposition to the
S-NRA statute being sponsored by
Gov. Paul V. McNutt in Indiana.
Wire Is Sent McNutt
The News climaxed a series of
articles on the S-NRA, purporting
to show that washington did not
want its passage by the Indiana
Legislature, with the misinterpreta-
ton of the Presidents answer.
On Feb. it printed a story say
ing that Washington did not want
the S-NRA and on Feb. II The In
dianapolis Times printed a state
ment from R. S. Beach, Washing
ton, deputy NRA Administrator for
State Relations, that the NRA
favored passage by the Legislature
Of the measure.
On Feb. 10 it printed that the
President had denied he wanted
passage of the measure. This led
to a wire from President Roosevelt
to Gov. McNutt denouncing the
'miSinterpretation."

BRUNO STARTS
TRIP TO PRISON
Lindbergh Killer on Way to
Death House at
Trenton.

BENNINGTON, N. j., Feb. 10
Bruno Richard Hauptmann, hand
cdffed to two guards, and sur
rounded by State Troopers, started
today on his journey to the death
cell in Trenton prison where he is
doomed to die for the murder of the
Lindbergh baby.
Still protesting his innocence, and
hopeful that an appeal would null
lily the death sentence imposed on
him, Hauptmann was taken at mid
morning from the cell where he had
been held during his trial.
A convoy of automobiles carrying
county officers and State Troopers
in bright-colored uniforms escorted
the priosner through the quiet
streets of this old town and across
the New Jersey countryside.
Hauptmann was taken from his
cell in Hunterdon County Jail at
9:33 a. m. Outside the Jail four
automobiles waited for him. State
troops surrounded Hauptmann as
he came from the Jail, manacled to
Warden Harry NJ. McCrea and
Lieut.. Allen Smith.
For a moment. the parties paused
on the steps of the Jail while photo
graphs were taken. Then the pris-
Oner was hurried into his autOn1o-
bile while crowd Of about $50
persons looked on.
I'm glad to be on my way"
Hauptmann said as he laughed and
chatted with reporters on the steps
Of The jail. He posed in jovial mood.

for mandatory purposes. They be-
gan making explanatory speeches of
their votes and using other time
consuming tactics.
When the minority members re-
turned to the House, Speaker Ed
ward H. Stein gave them a severe
tongue-lasblng.
eff there is lack of a quorum, -
Speaker Stein said, sit is because
the Republicans walked out in vio-
lation of their constitutional duties
and violated their sacred oath of
office. The reason they couldn't get
their amendments adopted was be-
cause the people of Indiana did not
send them here in sufficient num-
berS"
Added to the budget was $50, 500
for maintenance of the Indiana War
Memorial in Indianapolis and $10,-
600 more for Indiana State Teach
ers College, Terre Haute.
Republicans offered amendments
to cut $2,13O,52O from the budget
All were voted down.
Another bitter fight in which all
the parliamentary tricks will be
used will come next week when the
administration liquor control law is
laid before the General Assembly
Gov. Paul v. McNutt has announced
that the measure will be presented
Monday.
Yesterdays Republican tactics
made clear the minority strategy for
the balance Of the session. All taxes
will be opposed and legislation to
supplement the Federal NRA codes
will be rejected in the hope of max
ing political capital.

PiCketing vii Continue Un-
less Demands Are Met,
Is Warning.
BY JOHN THOMPSON
Times Staff Writer

FRANKLIN, Feb. 16.-The board
of trustees of Franklin College met
late last night with striking STU
dents who have demanded a change
in the college administration or the
resignation of it's president and
dean, and resolved that, if student
charges are true, the "only honor
able thing" for the administrative
officers involved to do would be
to resign.
President William Gear Spencer
I D. D., is accused by the students OF
paying "deporable' salaries, the
lowest in the state, to his faculty
and of not taking advantage of op'
portunities to pay them more; of
not cooperating with the student
body; of guiding the entire college
program to cater to a Baptist con-
stituency"; and of the lack of "an
intelligent, progressive program
and refusal TO incorporate modern
proved plans of education"
The president, furthermore, Is
accused by the students of sitting
student initiative and enthusiasm;
refusing to recognize student boards
of arbitration, the reduction of the
quality Of compulsory chapel pro-
grams to level below the average
college students intelligence anc
appreciation of value"
Board to Quiz Officials
Students asked the board that
the half scholarship donations b
continued in order that the college
will be available to athletes, such
as those who made up Franklin'S
wonder Fives," and that the stu
dent body be increased and the ma
terial income of the school be aug
mented.
The board of trustees, meeting al
the convenience of student leaders
who had first attended an orator.
cal contest, heard these and other
charges and promised to take them
up with the president and Dear
P. L. Powell tomorrow.
After they had been assured O.
immediate action by the trustees
students held an impromptu meet
ing in the Phi Delta Theta house
at 2:30 a. m. and resolved ito avail
the next move of the board o.
trustees, which, if unsatisfactory
would require that the present
strike be continued"
The students dramatized their un-
rest, which, they say, has beer
noticeable for the last two years
with the strike. This began Friday
and classes were picketed.
Refuse to Attend Seminar
Yesterday they refused, almost LOG
per cent strong, to attend seminar
on Modern Trends" contributing
instead their own modern trend
with more picketing that before
nightfall had united nearly the en-
tire student body in their demands
The students, their lengthy and
well-written resolution to the board
of trustees, expressly pointed out
that they wished the resolution not
be considered as an affair involving
personalities, but as an earnest at
temnt TO remedy a tWo-year siege Of
maladminis.ration."
1--WE offer these resolutions" the
petition said in closing, mot in an
antagonistic spirit toward Franklin
College, but because we realize that
true school spirit does not live in
passive submission, but in intelligent
criticism and a genuine desire to
better Franklin College"
