stealing plans for Q naval bomber from the Curtiss-Wright plant 1T Buffalo.
 Rumrich said he had only reae Lonkowskis name in the papers.
 Girl Liquor Store Keeper
 Rumrich related his efforts to ar range an appointment with Mis- Senta De Wanger, Q material w.t. ness, who operated a liquor store patronized by army men. He saie schleuter had asked him to ascer' tain Miss Dc Wanger's status be- fore he had Q chance to meet her.
 The witness said he got hold of q report on veneral disease among army men by calling Fort Hamilton on the pretext that he was Q "Major Milton" and had to deliver a lecture on tho subject. The re- port was sent to him by messenger on a downtown street intersection where he said he was representing the major.
 Reason Not Given
 The reason for obtaining the re- port was not brought out.
 Dunigan then read 8 letter to Mrs. Jessie Jordan, post office" oi the ring in Dundee, Scotland, whe Is now in a British prison as a con- victed spy. Tn 1t, Rumrich ex' pressed concern at not hearing from his German contacts ane mentioned his need for money.
 schleuter, he testified, had tolc him that all messages addressed te him would be signed "Spielman.' This, 1t developed, was the name used also by Lieut.. Erich Pfeiffei of the Nazi naval intelligence bu' reau. one of the most trusted agents of the Hitler regime.
 Got Brother Hired
 Guenther said he had told kar schlueter, travelling agent of tho German intelligence service wht operated in the guise of a stewarc aboard the German liner Europa that his brother Hansjord might b' useful to the spies. Hansjord wal then a chemistry student at th' university in Prague. His brother described him as "a regular little roughneck and a typical little Nazi."
 The next thing Rumrich heare from his brother. he was in tht service" It developed that Schleu' ter had wasted no time recruiting him.
 Schleuter also boasted of having footed the Eui opa's mail bags, Rum rich said. Rumrich was skeptical SO Schleuter showed him copies o! a contract between the. Bethlehem Steel Co.,, and Amtorg, the Russian trading corporation, which he hae obtained, Rumrich said, by steam ing open an envelope, photograph ing the contents, and sealing ant returning the letter to the mai pouch.
 Glaser Gave Him Code
 Rumrich accused one of the oth- CT defendants, Erich Glaser. former private in the army air corps al Mitchell Field, of making available to him a copy of the "z code" used in communications between army airplanes and their bases. There was nothing especially secretivt about the code, it appeared, since 1t was given to Glaser in an ex- animation that he took for pro- motion.
 Runrich and Glaser were living together. Chaser brought the ex. animation papers home and asked Rumrich to help him with an arith' metic problem. Rumrich noticed z series of letter combinations witt the meanings written after them He asked Glaser if he could make a copy of them and Glaser agreed he said. Schleuter had requested Rumrich to get a copy of the code used between ships and land bat

Taking issue with the manner m which the list was presented by the controller. the bar associations com- mittee acted to study the merits of Controller Rowland's case against most of waterbury's attorneys. The result will be the ruling today to be offered in the presence Of the controller at the finance board meet ins.

~ PASO, Tex. Jan. IAN alert
- and scrappy West Virginia
football team capitalized a
- second-period break today to
defeat the Red Raiders of Texas Tech,
7 to 6, in the New Year Day Sun
Bowl classic before 12,5o0 spec
tators.
Out-passed and out-gaiaed in first
downs, the Mountaineers from West
Virginia turned back q fourth-quarter
Tech drive in the shadow Of their
own goal posts.
After the close Of scoreless first
quarter, Gene Barnett, Tech half,
snatched Moan's punt, but fumbled
as he crossed the 3-yard mark Gus
sic. Mountaineer guard, recovered.
Three cracks at the line earned the
West Virginians nothing. but on the
fourth down Isaac skirted his own
left end, shook of three tacklers and
skidded into the end zone. Means
boot for point grooved the uprights.
The Raiders struck back a few mo-
ments later with an 8O-yard touch
down march from Techs 20. Fullback
Charley Calhoun plunged over from
the 2-yard mark.
Misses Tying Point.
NIEELEY tried . placement for the
tying point. but the Mountaineer
line crashed through in q body to
block.
Tho Mountaineers came back in q
second-half offensive, led by Halfback
Harry (F1ash) Clark.
Early in the fourth, Clark broke
away from his 10-yard line .or a 90
yard dash to the Tech goal, but the
play was called back and a clipping
penalty assessed against the Noun
taineers.
Undaunted, Clark came back with
. series Of runs climaxed by . 23-yard
taunt to Techs 80. where q fourth
down pass finally fell incomplete in the
end zone.
Clark's futile dash followed Techs
most serious threat OF the second half.
Combining line smashes by Tarbox
and Calhoun with a 15-yard pass from
Tarbox to Red Ramsey. the Raiders
reached the West Virginia 10. where
the Mountaineer line stiffened and
held four plays for no gain.

successful weeks of tennis and as
sured himself Of at least a happy
start on the new year by turning back
Marvin Kantrowitz, 81, e3, 81,
to win the national junior indoor sin
giles championship.
Fishbach, 17-year-old freshman at
st. Johns University in Brooklyn,
with another year Of junior cam
paigning ahead OF him, left no doubt
in any ones mind as to his superiority
over his former high school teammate.
In fact. this triumph for the meth
odical youngster who a week ago beat
Kantrowitz for the metropolitan title
left little doubt that he should have
been seeded at No. /. instead Of the
fourth position assigned him.
