II cannot forget the woman
love-"
This Is the wistful epitaph to
the adventures Of Murray Doran,
20, of Memphis, Tenn, who today
is being held at the First precinct
as a fugitive from parents"
Doran left his comfortable home
several weeks ago because his
sweetheart in Memphis stopped
loving him. He had a new car
and a good job. but neither
mattered. So he started for
Washington.
But the dome Of the Capitol
was no inspiration to me-" he
said. IT was cut to the very
heart"
Doran abandoned his machine
here, bought some old clothes and
started hitch-hiking south. After
visiting Palm Beach and other
points south he decided to come
back for his car. It had been
taken from local streets by a
police crane and when he claimed
it, Doran was held for his parents.
They are expected here today.
He gallantly refused to disclose
the name Of his sweetheart whose
lost affection he still mournS.

Battered Hero Rests
 After Seuere Jostline
(Continued from Page D

Mulligan, head of the Bureau of Air Commerce, at Washington, announc- ing that his five-day suspension for flying across the ocean without per- mission had expired and he could fly again any time he wanted.
 Injury Painful
 The injury was painful but evil dently slight, and after his chest had been strapped, he carried on through the tumultuous celebration in his honor until midnight.
 It happened during yesterdays parade nn Broadway where mill lion persons stood to cheer the hero of flight to Dublin in $900 plane. And the street almost sproutevl Shamrocks in the demonstration of Irish enthusiasm.
 Corrigan didn't know who jostled him. In fact he said nothing of it until he was in his hotel in the evening. Dr. Willard Ellsworth strapped him and recommended the X-ray.
 Mayor Traps Him
 It remained for Mayor F. H.. LaGuardia eventually to tr. :, Cor rigan in his wrong way" alibi. He said that since Corrigan flew above the clouds" when he crossed the Atlantic ocean headed for Los Angeles" he must have seen

the sun and 1t should have seemed strange to him that the sun "rose in the west"
 Corrigan blinked and grinned, and evaded the point.
 The mayor, speaking at an ad- vertising club luncheon after the parade, hailed Corrigan neverthe- less as typifying "the daring, cour- age and imagination of American youth"
 Today Corrigan was recuperating from the effects of the widest cele- bration since Col. Charles A. Lind bergh came back from Paris in 1927. He hoped to keep his grinning Irish face as far removed from crowds as possible until he sets out again Mon- day for Boston to encounter another riot, and to proceed from there on a tour of the country. At Boston, a committee or 157, including 46 Cor rigans, was mobilizing the marchers for another Corrigan parade.
 Mass Meeting Held
 Corrigan day in New York ended with mass meeting in Yankee Sta dium, where 40 speakers spoke in praise of the daring young man and his flying machine.
 In the course of the speeches, 1t was recalled that Corrigan's nine year-old "crate" had no drift indicator, and hence he probably flew sideways as well as backwards, and the fact that he reached Dublin became more of an amazing feat.
 Although Corrigan was of Irish lineage, he had never been in that country, and discounting his "alibi" and assuming that he headed there intentionally when he took off from Floyd Bennett field, July IT, the feat amounted to this: He flew across an ocean to strange country with no aids to navigation except page torn from an atlas, and no way to know whether the winds were sweeping him off his course. The only Course" he had was the needle on his com- pass.
 Gets New Compass
 He was given a new compass yes- terday in ceremonies at Floyd Ben- nett field, before he paraded through Brooklyn borough before another 500,000 admirers.
 It was predominantly a day for the Irish and both the mass meeting and a symphony concert at Lew isohn stadium that preceded it used Erin for a theme. The concert or- chestra reached it's greatest heights in rendering Killarney" Molly Brannigan," and kitty, Me Love, Will You Marry Me?"

implicated Carroll in the murder.
 Only once before his trial did he tell the true story" of the murder to anyone, Dwyer testified, and that was to his attorney. Carroll was in the room as a guard, however, and later told him, Dwyer said, that "Ill put bullet through you and swear you tried to escape" unless he re- tracted the story. Dwyer did and accepted a sentence of life impris- onment last December 2.
 One night when he was in county jail, Dwyer said, Carroll visited him and told me take his gun, crack him over the head with it, go out through the office, get into his car and leave"
 Dwyer identified six passionate love letters as having been sent to him by Barabara Carroll. Though none directly accused her father of violating her, several hinted at the seduction charged by the state.
 Only two other witnesses were heard before court adjourned yes- terday. They were Medical Exam finer Raphael Gilady of Bergen County, New Jersey, and William C.. Collins, Lyndhurst, N. J., under taker, who took charge of the bodies of Dr. and Mrs. Littlefield af ter they were removed from an automobile driven by Dwyer at North Arlington, N. J., October 16.

 The Democratic nomination in Kentucky is tantamount to elec- tion.
 An estimated 5O0,000 votes were expected to be cast. The polls open at a. m. q a. m. EDT) and close at 4 p. m. (6 P. M. EDT0 The out- come may be apparent late tonight. But if tabulators have not complet- ed their count by midnight, they must halt until Monday.
 Showers, predicted generally throughout the state, may retard voting in rural areas.
 Election campaigns in Kentucky usually develop blood ard this one was no exception. At Jackson Thursday night former Sheriff Lee Combs. a Chandler man, was killed, and his brother, Lewis, county chairman for Chandler, and Sheriff Victor Deaton, Barkley partisan, were wounded. Murder warrants were issued yesterday for w. A. Combs, not relative of the bro- thers, Wardie Jenkins, Q WPA work CT, and Goebel L. Allen, all Bark ley men. Several other warrants were issued charging Barkley men with having been accessories. The shooting occurred on the steps of the Breathitt County courthouse which houses Barkley headquarters.
