Mystery Malady
Threatens Life
OF Young Girl

WILKES-BARRE, Pa, July 81
U.N.SO. - Defying diagnosis, .
strange malady gripped 1s=year-old
Anna Bender on a bed Of pain in
her West Pittston home today.
Quick to shield her from the
curious following reports she was
turning into stone" from some
form Of body Justification, members
of the Bender family permitted
only close relatives of the girl to
enter her sickroom. Attending
physicians fear death will make
its own entry within two or three
weeks.
For two months Annals case has
puzzled yoming Valley spe-
cialists. It was eight weeks ago
when she was stricken, her right
foot beginning to swell from some
mysterious intestinal condition.
The swelling became worse until
several days ago Anna whispered
that she wanted to leave Pittston
Hospital-"to go home to die"
But DR.. A. G. Hinricks, who dis
charged the girl from the hospital,
denied Anna was suffering the
same Justification that afflicts
Benny Hendricks, 9-year-old "Stone
boy" of nearby Larksville. Her
family, too, insisted she was not
hardening into anything like o
hone-like substance.

DROUGHT ENDS
I0WA'S TALL
CORN CROP

Here fouotDs the first IN q
series of four articles deScrib-
inc conditions In the drought
area as found at first hand By
an International Net0S SeTDtce
staff correspondent assigned to
surrey IotDG, Nebraska, Wyo-
ming and Montana.
BY LEON w. SCHLOSS
STORM LAKE, Iowa, July 81
U.N.sO.-The drought has al
most entirely destroyed Iowa's
corn crop. and the Hawkeye
State is slowly but surely being
throttled by a soaring sun which
gives no promise of surcease.
A days drive across the string
straight highways which lace the
state together dispelled all
doubts as to the existence of a
''big dry" comparable to the
droughts Of 1880 and 1884.
To right and left countless
thousands of acres presented
stands of corn aborted midway
Of their growth. Sun-toasted tas-
sells, full blown long before their
time, topped stalks and tiny
"nubbin" ears burnt as brown as
veteran lifeguards. Like ma
chine gunned soldiers starting to
topple, they represented Iowa's
golden wealth turned to brass.
Crop to Be Worse
Here in Storm Lake, G. L.
Gunnerson, county agricultural
agent, turned the spotlight of
cold fact on Iowa's dilemma, say
ing:
"This year Iowa planted l.
6OO,OOO more acres than she did
in 1884. But the crop this year
is going to be worse than it was
that year."
Eight miles from here the
brothers Marten, Floyd and Yer
non, who farm q half-section, 800
acres, paused in their labors to
talk it over" Floyd explained:
NORMALLY we get so bushels
to the acre in corn. Rather
than give you my estimate of
this years yield, I'll quote you
an expert. Ferry Smith, who
covers the country from Ohio
to Colorado buying corn for his
company, one Of the largest pop
corn companies in the United
States, was by here the other
day. He said IL we were lucky
we would get Is bushels this
year."
HAD ANY RAIN?
"Well,. have you had any
rain?'
ooh, yes" replied Floyd, C.

wind which ticks TIE countryside
almost continuously with a sitting

A FEW observations on Walter
IA Hustons appearance with
his leading lady, Miss Lucille
Fenton, at the WFBM micro
phone: The actor likes radio
drama and enjoys his radio APP
pearances. He feels that radio has
opened a new field to actors and
actresses, as we'll as stimulated
interest in drama. He appeared
with Bling Crosby recently, has
been Rudy Vallee's guest star,
and performed for Radio Theater.
We were surprised that Mr..
Huston and Miss Fenton used no
script for their 10-minute skit and
were amused when Miss Fenton
forgot her lines and there was no
way for Mr. Huston to prompt her
without being heard by listeners.
She cleverly recited some lines to
fill in until she could read Mr.
HuSton's lips to get her cue.

BANDIT SEEKS
ERROR WRIT IN
COURT ACTION
Alexander Geisking Says He
Was Not Guilty When
He Admitted Crime.

A petition for writ of error CO.
ram nobis in behalf of Alexander
Geisking, indianapolis auto bandit,
was filed IN Criminal Court today
by his attorney, Lawrence A. Shaw.
The petition alleges that Gels
king pleaded guilty to auto banditry
and robbery charges in Criminal
Court in the fall of 1929. although
he was not guilty of the crimes
charged.
The pleading was made to avoid
trial because he had been assured
the sentence would run concurrenuly
with a 10-to-25-year term imposed
in Ohio Circuit Court, the petit
ton claims.
Committed to Prison
After serving four years and two
months of the Ohio court sentence
in the Indiana State Reformatory
he was committed to the Indiana
State Prison to serve a 10-year
term imposed in the Marion Grim
inal Court, the papers charge.
The Criminal Court indictment
charges Geisking with holding UP
and robbing Leo Silver, delicates-
sen proprietor, of $170 Sept. %, 1929
Aff1davits by the Marion County
trial judge, James A. Collins, ano
the trial prosecutor, Judson l.
Stark, recommending leniency, &C.
companied the petition.
Mr.. Stark said he believed the evil
dence connecting Geisking with the
robbery to be both insufficient and
untrustworthy
Geisking was sentenced in the
Ohio Circuit Court after pleading
guilty to auto banditry in Rising
