Idld Sl1 oOlOOll, dS 1dA
as is known, is back in his High
Point, N. c.. home today and probably
pondering the ways Of life. Unlike
Buddy Myer recently, Bolton wended
his way homeward without the bless
ing of Owner Clark Griffith. who be-
came indignant at news of this de-
parture and announced that his
catcher was suspended without pay.
To this department it seems that
Bolton either is most misunderstood
young man or that the workings
of his mind from time to time spring
off on peculiar tangents that would
stamp him as temperamental.
In the case of his sudden
departure for home, after
pleading ill health to unsym-
pathetic ears, Cliff conceivably
could be misunderstood and
even indignant in his own right.
He had suffered lately from sinus
trouble. All along Bolton has been
owning a pair of bad tonsils. Not
long ago he sustained a fractured
finger and he may have figured the
deities of base ball were giving him
going over" as the boys say.
When he asked Griffith if he could 60
home and was refused, Chf possibly
became peeved, recalled that Myer had
been permitted to go home, and just
upped and left without permission.

CULT SLAYER
HINTS DEATH
OF MAYOR

DETROIT, Oct. / GN.SJ.-A
vague story by Dayton Dean,
stolid executioneer of the Black
Legion, that members Of the cult
"got rid Of a mayor in an Ohio
town some years ago" was being
checked by police today. Dean
said:
"a lot Of the boys bOasted
they got rid Of a mayor in an
Ohio town some years ago, be-
cause they didn't like him, and
nothing was ever done to them.
understood them to mean they
killed him, but I'm not certain.
They never told me what town
it was"
Dean made his latest disclosure
as he commented on the convic-
ton Of IL fellow-night riders for
the murder Of Charles A. Poole.
Dean was the triggerman in the
killing, pleaded guilty and turned
States evidence. He declared:
"The verdict was fair. They
were just rs guilty Of POOle's
murder as I. They ordered me
to do it. Poole was a martyr.
His death may have saved the
lives of others. There is no tell
ing how far the Black Legion
might have gone if it hadn't
been cracked open after POOle'S
death. Black LegiOnnaireS felt
they were so powerful nothing
could have happened to them
but they know better now"
Poole was slain because of false
gossip that he beat his wife.

Paris Styles
By MARY FENTRESS
United Press Staff Corresponden

United Press Staff Correspondent)
 Paris, (UP)-Velvet has proved to be the smartest material of the year. It is shown in numerous va rites = velveteen, panne, lame, shaved to a flat, stubby surface or printed into striped or plaid de- sign. Black, as it always the case in Paris, is the favorite, although various shades of green, red and brown are almost as popular.
 The new velvets are used for severely tailored suits to be worn with rich lame blouses. Velveteen is used for street dresses worn un- der fur-trimmed cloth coats as well as jacket suits worn with plaid woolen blouses.
 Dinner and evening gowns are usually of soft panne silk velvet as this material lends itself best to soft, flattering drapery. These for nal gowns often are trimmed with fur, with sequins or gold or silver embroidery. One dress designed has created a new velvet that is heavy in texture but is so pliablc that 1t can be gathered, tucked or shirred into shape.
 Velvet is frequently combined with wool not only for daytime but for cocktail and dinner hour as well Fine woolens or soft broadcloths are used for tailored street dresses trimmed with high velvet collars deep cuffs and wide belts. More for nal are the broadcloth suits with long straight skirts, velvet blouses and broadcloth coats made with vel vet revers, cuffs and buttons.

 Had South held a singleton spade, he would have bid four hearts to show second round control or spades and the ace of hearts.

This is the tenth of a series of articles dealing with changes in the Culbertson System, as an- nounced in Ely Culbertson's latest book, "The Gold Book of Bidding and Play"
 Among the advantages of using the asking bids," not the least is the ease with which players can de- termine early in the bidding that slam cannot be made. Today's hand is typical.
