Girl Indicted In
Topeka for Sending
threatening Letter
To the President

TOPEKA, Kans, June L. (ANP)
In jail here since last December
on charge of sending threaten
ing letter to President Roosevelt,
the plight of Miss Lucille Harris, Ii
years old, has attracted wide atten--
tion among Kansans of both races.
Last Friday the Federal grand
jury returned an indictment against
the girl charging her with sending
through the mails a threat to kill
the President. She is being repre-
sented by Atty. Elisha Scott. Inter
est in her case has been aroused
because of her winning personality
and intelligence, and her solicitude
for her mother, an invalid living in
Virginia. Her father is dead; she IS
4 member Of the Roman Catholic
church.
Miss Harris found herself strand
ed here last winter without a job
when the army officer for whose
family she had been working was
transferred to another city. Her
futile quest for job and the cir
cumstances which prompted her TO
write the damaging letter.
She explained, After being with
out a job for over week, applying
to welfare authorities, begging for
work and being turned down, going
without food for five days, knowing
Of no one else TO ask for aid, !
thought surely could write the
President Of the United States,
telling him of my situation - best
i could. wrote him and | received
nd answer, / grew frantic and wrote
again what they call a threatening
letter. II don't remember just what !
wrote, but didn't know had
written anything wrong until was
arrested ait Junction City December

NEW YORK (ANp)--His pocket
filled with s27,203.12, the biggest
purse ever received during his spec
tacular ring career, Double Cnam--
pion Homicide Henry Armstrong
looked this week to visit with rel
atives in st. Louis, his boyhood home,
trip to California, and return
here for the Louis-Schmeling fight
and his own battle July 26 with Lou
Ambers for the lightweight crown.
Armstrong, as the whole world
knows, proved he is the greatest
fighter in the world today, pound for
pound, If not the greatest in history,
by soundly trouncing Barney Ross
last Tuesday night to win the welter--
weight crown. So little Henry at 1873
pounds is now champion of the fea--
therweight and welter divisions and
is the first in histoy to wear both
crowns simultaneously. Only Ambers,
lightweight king, stands in the way
Of Armstrong; bid for three titles
at once, and that little matter will
be taken care Of in due course.
Few people are currently enyious
of this same Mr.. Ambers. He IS
much in the position Of condemned
man who knows the hour when he
will walk that last mile to the hot
seat and sees no chance Of q stay of
execution. Ross was rated the best
of the little men and one Of the
finest at his weight in history, yet
he went the way of all flesh against
Homicide Hank.
Armstrong completely ignored the
lightweight class in jumping from his
own to Barney's 147 pound division.
Seemingly he said to Lou, 1--WE got
a little extra work to do right now,
Sonny, but don't go 'wayl I'll take
care of you later
OF course Ambers was impressed
by Armstrong; legalized butchering
Of the white boy from Chicago. Here
was Ross, eight pounds heavier than
Henry, master boxer, super ring
general, splendid puncher, and pos
sessing speed to burn-yet despite
all these great assets, he left the
ring looking as If he had had a vio-
lent argument with met chopper
while Referee Arthur Donovan
snooped around to see what kind of
invisible prop had held him up. So
if Ambers has a nervous breakdown
between now and July 26, or loses
so much weight through worry that
he has to fall back into the 118
pound class, nobody should be sur
