MRS. HEWITT NOT rs
f. TO BE EXTRADITED
California Drops Mayhem Charge
Becaues of Daughters Re-
luctance to Testify.

By the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, December 1s.-
Because of her daughters reluctance
to appear against her, Mrs. Maryon
Cooper Hewitt will not be returned
here from New Jersey for prosecution
on charge of conspiracy to commit
mayhem.
District Attorney Matthew Brady
announced the case would be dropped
after counsel for the daughter, Ann
Cooper Hewitt, said she would be an
unwilling witness. Brady, who OBJ
tanned an extradition order after
months of effort, expressed regret he
had not been notified sooner.
The charge was based on testimony
by Miss Hewitt before the grand jury
that she was tricked by her mother
and two physicians into an operation
which left her sterile. The physi-
clans were acquitted Of the charge.
Russell Tyler, attorney for Miss
Hewitt, declared she will continue,
however, her 100000 damage suit
against Mrs. Hewitt and the phya-
clans.

~ the Associated Press,
KANSAS CITY, December IS
Fivs-year- old Charles Mendenhall,
whose Christmas started early in q
race against death, yesterday received
the best of all possible gifts-assur-
ance he probably will live.
Charles, who never heard Of Santa
Claus until this year, Is suffering
from pemphigus, q skin disease his
doctors say almost invariably brings
death. Fearful the illness would end
he youngsters life before Christmas,
kansas citizens began showering him
with gifts last week.
Then news stories Of his plight
attracted national attention. Scores
OF kilograms, many from eminent
physicians, brought suggestions for
treating the disease.
Today Charles doctors announced:
His condition is good. There Is
excellent chance for recovsry."

won a million dollars in bets on a
horse, Royal Flush, for which he paid
$4,000.
Twins are born more often to
blonde mothers than to brunettes.
w. F.. Wythe submits an interesting
question to which we appeal to a
reader for an answer:
do birds follow each other by any
other senses other than sight and
hearing? I believe that one bird can
follow another of it's own kind by
the sense of smell. Many times 1 have
seen one bird follow another through
the woods, five to Is seconds apart,
with no chance for sight trailing, and
then alight on the same limb of the
same tree. 1t can happen only when
the air is still. BY estimating the
/ air drift with the smoke of a cigaret
I've found that the second bird always
follows the first by taking a path a
few feet to the right or left accord
| ing to the drift. The second bird
makes the same dips in flight
| changes in altitude, and curves
around the same trees as the first.
The phenomenon occurs frequently
during the migratory and mating sea-
sons, and infrequently from June to
September, except among the doves
and members of the woodpecker fam
lily.
1t is common knowledge among as
tronomers that in observing the moon
dozens of travelling birds cross it's
face every evening during the migra-
tory season. 1t is we'll known. too
that when one bird is seen, one or
more is likely to follow the same
path immediately after, or within a
few seconds. They are, of course,
far enough apart to avoid the drift
OF the bird Immediately in front. BY
comparison of silhouettes, wing mo-
ton, ETC., I'm sure they usually are
the same kind. In many cases this
might be coincidence, for MANY birds
travel in flocks. 1t is likewise true
that many kinds migrate singly or
in small groups"
Who will answer Mr.. Wvthe,s
question? Address Clark Kinnaird

Brigade Due
Here Friday
At Earle

1.-THE Charge of the Light Bri-
gade," Warner Bros production
suggested by the immortal poem
Of Alfred, Lord Tennyson, comes to
the Earle Theater Friday with an
all-star cast headed by Enrol Flynn
and Olivia de Havilland-over
$4,000 extra people.
The absorbing story Of which
the charge Of the Light Brigade
makes the sensational climax,
begins in India, where two broth
erS, both army officers, are rivals
for the hand of a beautiful Scot
fish girl. The girl is betrothed to
the elder, but during his absence,
fighting on the frontier, she falls
in love with the younger.
She struggles against this love,
believing herself obligated to her
fiance, but when she finds that
both Of her lovers have been or.
dered to the front against the Rus
SLAMS in the Crimea, she confesses
her love for his brother to her
betrothed, at the same time ex-
pressing her fear that the man she
loves will be killed in battle.
The elder brother and superior
officer promises he will keep the
younger from danger, and carries
out this pledge when he sends his
brother back to headquarters with
a note to the commandment telling
him that he has deliberately
changed an order for retreat into
an attack, he himself riding to
his death on the battle field.
This is the terrifix climax to
the picture, but the preliminary
setting in India is filled with
thrilling action, including border
skirmishes, hand-to-hand fighting,
the massacre of officers, men,
women and children under a flag
Of truce at Chukcti and scores OF
other breath-taking events.
The picture is said to have been
produced on a mammoth scale
with colorful interior settings, in
Guiding the magnificent palace OF
the Amir Of SuriStan with his
retinue Of Nautch dancing girls
slaves and members of the court
Besides Enrol Flynn and Olivia
de Havilland, the distinguished
cast includes Patric Knowles.
Henry Stephenson, Nigel Bruce,
Donald Crisp, David Niven, c,

others.
