journeyed to Geneva to take part in
the League Of Nations efforts to
hQuidate the Italo-E Ethiopian crisis.
The journey Of the statesmen was

from Naples aboard the steamship
Abbazia to safeguard Italy's prestige
In East Africa.
The italian government withheld

WHY YOUTH WENT
 TO WEST POINT

Washington, Dec. 12 = (U.P) = Representative John H. Hoeppel of California said to-day he appointed James w. Ives to West Point, not for cash, but in hope of gaining the favor of Brigadler General Edgar R. Conley.
 And that is the honest truth said Hoeppel, who is jointly charged in district supreme court with his son, Charles, with conspiring to col- lect $1,000 from Young Ives, former olympic athlete.
 "I had three reasons for making the appointment. wanted to be nice to Colonel Raymond L. Bamberger, who had been courteous to me, wanted to get the good will of Gen. eral Conley and, thirdly, was in- tereSted in football"
 "But the principal reason was to get the good will of General Con- ley" he added. Hoeppel was under cross-examination by Assistant Dis trict Attorney David A. Pine. AL most every time he answered a ques- tion, Hoeppel attempted to make elaborations, as if he were speaking on the floor of the house. He was silenced repeatedly by Pine and Justice Daniel W. ODonoghue.

Knife Thrower To
 Show At Boys Club
Spectacular Act Booked for Christmas Party Decenl
 Der 28LOcal Radio Stars to Entertain

The Boys Club will be host to 800 of its young members at a Christmas party Saturday, Decem- Der 28th.
 The evenings entertainment will consist of ten or more vaudeville acts which in the hopes of the club staff will surpass anything given to its members in many years.
 Although the program is not def- initely set or arranged it is known that three radio-broadcasting acts have already been secured, plus two spectacular acts from the Ringing Brothers Barnum and Bailey circus, to add to the evening of mirth and merriment.
 Local talent will include John White in Story Telling. His selec- tion has not been given as yet, but probably will be 8 Ghost Thriller appropriate to the Christmas sea- son. MT. White is 8 former Boys Club member, and at one time was associated with the club staff in a supervisional capacity, and through his long acquaintance in boys work he has developed a worthwhile in- terest in story telling to younger groups.
 The twenty-five piece Symphonic orchestra of the Boys Club under the direction MT. George Gentle will be heard in several numbers and solos. This will be the initial appearance of the orchestra this season. The Harmonica band of the local club will also render two selections as a number, and the boys | in this band will be under the di- rection of Thomas Piesyna and Phil Manello.
 Frank Romano and Francis Shee- han will be present to put on a ra- dio skit which is one of laughter throughout from start to finish. An- other radio singer will be heard rendering two selections when Francis M. O,Donnell sings: 'Treas- ure Island, and When Santa Claus Comes. MT. O'Donnell has recently sang under engagement with the Casino De Farce Follies of New York City. He also has had the pleasure of broadcasting from WNBC weekly, as well as having sang from WICC and on Nick Ken ny's Original Amateur Hour from station WHOM.
 Juggling Gus" one of the lead ing jugglers in the circus world a few years back will appear with 8 bag full of tricks, Hips, and laughs. From the Ringing Brothers Circus an act supreme has been secured in The Great Powell. Powell is rated one of the best knife throw CTS in the field, and will present 8
