us where we were wrong. (About this
particular phenomenon, of course).
Pathe is ready today, with its Aim
at Keith's. And Paramount, too, at
the Earle and other links in the
Warmers chain.
King-making as colorful, compli-
Gated and enormously appealing art
was never more thoroughly demon
strated. For all its rarity, or maybe
because OF it, it is an amazingly i'm
pressiVe ceremonial. Even the men
who cranked the machines were awed.
To those familiar with the emotional
restraint of newsreel cameramen,
their surrender to the grandeur OF this
occasion is virtually as impressive as
the occasion itself.
BY stretching the imagination just
a little bit, it is possible to put q
local touch in Pathe's coronation
pictures. They were made under the
supervision of Jack Connolly Mr..
Connolly used to be here, all over here
He was so good at it that Pathe sent
him to London for the coronation
job. He is that company's general
manager.
pRETTY soon, the girls in the
Earle's box Office will be among

various radio bands. For four weeks
now. they have been selling tickets
and making change for followers Of
notable twang and toot combinations
Next week it will be Guy Lombardo
and the numerous (three) other
Lombardos.
It is virtually a certainty that
Lombardo will end up near the top.
Washington always has shown great
celebrity in dropping its knitting, or
getting some one in to mind the

Lombardo.

Eddie was selling nothing. Just
called to say hello" and ask us what
we thought people would like to know
about Warner stars, pictures, ETC.,
which was escaping the studio public
ity departments attention. We could
not think OF thing. So the CONVEX
sation turned to the logic of a lot Of
tho nuttier looking things which are
done in Hollywood.
They only look nutty, Eddie says.
Then, being dynamic little man, he
exploded a number Of irrefutable
explanations Of why so many Holly
wood ideas are misunderstood. It
seems to narrow down to the fact that
people do not know the technique Of
picture making. Hollywood does but
1t Is 50 busy making pictures and dis
tributing them that it cannot take
time out to explain or justify itself.

DENHARDT

AT TRIAL
Court Rules Testimony
OF Former Witness
Stricken From Record

NEW CASTLE, KY, April "a
G.N.SO.-A second blow was dealt
the States case today against
Brig. Gen. Henry H. Denhardt
prominent soldier-politician and
former lieutenant governor, for
the alleged murder of his fianceer
Mrs. Verna Carr Taylor.
Judge Charles C. Marshall over
ruled the States motion to strike
a portion of the testimony given
by George r. Baker, farmer. near
whose home the fatal shooting
occurred.
This left squarely before the
jury Bakers admission that or
the night of the shooting he said;
z @DenIhardt couldn't have killed
her Because I was with him
when the second shot was
fired"
Baker made the statement tx
B. s. Kiethley, La Grange under
taker, when the latter arrived or
the death scene last January.
The testimony was drawn from
Baker late yesterday despite thu
fact that Baker was appearing as
a State witness, and the rules OF
evidence against expression o.
opinion prevent Baker from say
ing whether he still believes Den
hardt couldn't have killed her"
Prosecutor H. B. KinSolVing's
first move today was the attempt
to strike this evidence. His mo
ton was denied after the judge
and attorneys for both sides had
conferred a half hour.
Defense lawyers, under the
judges ruling, were left at liberty
to refer back to Bakers testimony
in their announced attempt to
prove that the socially prominent
widow committed suicide.
Importance of Bakers testimony
was heightened by the fact that
because he came out of his house
near the roadside ravine in which
Mrs. Taylor died just as the frs
shot was fired, he was regarded II
a position to know more about the
death than any other witness.

his identity being his Social Sc

The man was picked up uncon-
Scious in the park at Third Street

day in Casualty Hospital. A So
cial Security card bearing the
name Joseph Walls was the only
bit of identification on his person.
Detective Sergeant John Wise
took the card andZ went to Social
Security officials seeking the COM
plete yeriflcation Of the man. The
latter refused to divulge any in
formation, holding that the Social
