CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

Two Mere Princes Given Freedom
 The young men flew to the Iron Mountain quicker than it takes to tell. And there in the entrance, half way up the side, they could see another handsome young man waving his red cap from side to side to attract their attention.
 Eric refined in his flying horse so that they settled down easily to the narrow ledge where the young man stood
 Fries friend leaped out of the saddle with one move and threw his arms about the second young man. They both shouted Broth er,"
 Eric grinned happily at their pleasure. Then the two turned around and said, "A thousand thanks to you
 But now how shall I tell you 1part?" said Eric.
 The two youths laughed The che Eric had found inside the cir cle of fire bowed and said, T am Harald of Thuringia, heir to the throne"
 The second lad bowed and said, And I am Peter, his brother, sec- ond in line"
 Now the troll in the castle be- hind the East Wind must be your other brother" said Eric. Let us hurry there"
 Waves Blue Cap They all three jumped onto the back of the winged horse and hur- ried to the castle behind the East Wind. As they circled down over it they saw a young man excited ly waving at this with blue cap.
 Eric brought his horse down be- side the young man and, sure enough, it was Conrad, the third brother. There was just enough room to seat him on the horse.
 So now the four young men de- cided to find out what had hap pened to the kingdom of the three brothers during the hundred years they had been bewitched by the giant who had no heart. i They flew straight to the cap ital of their kingdom. They could recognize that easily, because their father had built three cas- ties on three hills so that each of his sons would have fine home when he took bride.
 They soon saw the city where three castles stood on three hills. But when they looked down onto the streets they saw grass chok- ing up the Undergraduates. Windows were broken in homes. There was no smoke from any of the chim- neys and they saw not one single person.
 Great Green Snakes
 Instead, they saw great. green snakes slipping in and out of door ways, lying coiled up in the sun, or slithering up tree trunks to steal eggs from birds nests.
 The three brothers lamented loudly. but Eric was silent and thoughtful. He didn't dare ask his horse to settle down into one of the streets for they might all have been bitten by snakes, But he pulled the black coai from his pockst-the one he had picked up dn the mountain top-and threw it

then Eric whispered to his winged horse to set them down in the square.
 The three brothers dashed in and out of houses. But every where they went there was the same desolation. They didn't find a soul in the city.

Youth. IL. Guilty
In Murder Case

SAN JOSE, Cal, Nov. 16. UP)-
Robert Mandrell, 16 year old junior
high school student, faced life
imprisonment today unless he is
declared insane, for the murder of
his 16 year old schoolmate, jose
phine Parsen. -.
Plans to bring him to trial Mon
day for his sanity were temporarily
sidetracked when Foreman Earl
Minton asked to be disqualified from
the second trial because he
had "seen insane wards and never
would vote to send anyone" to a
state hospital.
Young Mandell paled and showed
His first emotion of the trial when
the jury of nine men and three
women returned the verdict after
Tour hours of deliberation. They
made no recommendation for mercy,
but because of his age, state law
prevents capital punishment.
The boys mother, Lorena Mandell
sobbed and collapsed in the arms
of her husband, Joseph, former
guard at San Quentin prison.
Il hope God in his wisdom will
forgive the parents on this jury for
an action SO unjustified,' she said
when she regained her composure
Il hope none of them will have the
same heartaches that have been

ated that "the next move is up to
Vultee. Everything is very peace
full, but we're very well organized.
We can hold out as long as neces-
sary" A mass meeting of more than
a thousand workers was held across
the street from the plant this
morning.
Vultee officials have spent two
days and a night in their offices
and said they were preparing TO
spend the weekend there, if nee
essary, in order to hold themselves
ready for any attempts at settle
ment. They accused the union OF
having broken off negotiations and
insisted they are ready to resume
arbitration attempts at any time.
The union retorted that with Vultee
unwilling to raise minimum wages
above so cents an hour, there is
nothing to arbitrate."
Two federal conciliators were re-
ported to be making strenuous ef-
forts to bring the company and
union together.
The national defense commission,
which had threatened to take wig
orous" action, the war department
and the U. S. Cancellation commits
sioner in Los Angeles were working
for a quick settlement, but their
moves were not disclosed.
The strike, which began early
yesterday had closed the plant,
and interrupted the manufacture OF
$50, 100000 worth of war planes for
the United States, Great Britain
and South American countries.
At the bottom of the dispute was
the unions demand for a minimum
hourly wage of IS cents, instead of
SO cents. Union and Vultee repre-
sentatives had been negotiating for
more than two months before the
walkout finally was called.

Raids on London
Greatest of War;

BERLIN, Nov. 16. (UP)-German
quarters today described raids on
London last night as zone of the
greatest blows against the British
capital since the beginning of the
war The high command added
that towns in south and central
England also had been bombed.
The air force continued to mine
British harbors, said the high COM
mand, and it claimed that the Brit
lsh had lost IL planes yesterday,
seven shot down By antiaircraft fire
and five by naval artillery.
1t was admitted that six German
planes were missing.

Britain, Germany
Trade Greatest
Attacks Of War

Continued from Page One)
most observers agreed was the
heaviest raid of the war. Seven
hospitals, three hotels, apartments,
motion picture theaters and other
buildings were listed as bombed
but London dispatches were vague
regarding damage to war industries
At Coventry, it was obvious that
the German attack was designed to
destroy a center of British airplane
production. British censorship pre-
vented correspondents from report
ing fully on the extent of damage
to industry there but it was indi-
Gated that considerable harm had
been done
The raid on London presumably
was a second step in a systematic
big scale plan of assault on indus
trial nerve centerS. London officials
said that military targets escaped
damage for the most part because
OF intensive antiaircraft fire CEN
tered around them, but the Nazi
planes hammered at every part of
the capital zone and it seemed
probable that greater damage had
been done than on any previous
raids.
British planes were striking back
regularly and Friday night attack
ed chiefly in the Hamburg area
where docks, oil plants and other
targets were reported bombed. Nazis
said German planes would retaliate
for the raids just as the attack on
Coventry was retaliation for the
British raid on Munich while Adolf
Hitler was there.

Bayonets. Rifles
Feature Clash on
koritza Front

OHR1D, Jugoslavia, Nov. 16.
(UP)-Frontier messages said today
that a fierce fight between Greek
and Italian forces near Plyasa on
the Koritza front had ended with
out gain by either side, as Fascist
units threw back a Greek attack
with rifles and bayonets.
Seventy-six italians were killed
and 189 wounded, while the Greeks
lost 38 dead and about 80 wounded,
the messages reported.
Greek infantry, advancing from
Canyon early in the morning, had
attacked the italian positions be-
fore Plyasa on the road from Blk
lista to Koritza. Intense rifle fire
was followed by bayonet fighting
but the Italians counter-attacked
strongly and fought bravely" to
hold their position, the messages
said.

Circus on Rails
Coming Nov. 2znd

Known as the Mammoth E,xposi-
ton Train, the show will present
many features of showmanship
known hitherto only to the mcro
cumbersome tented circuses, and
will offer a large and interesting
collection of strange animals and
exotic humans gathered from ali
corners of the globe in addition to
intriguing side-show entertain
ment.
Gone with the introduction of the
exposition on the modern stream
lined railway cars are many of the
old circus customs the erection
OF large canvas arenas with burly
roustabouts driving stakes, the
heavy equipment, and the large
working personnel. Replacing these
customs and characters are two
huge railroad cars which can be
converted into a self contained ex-
hibition in one hour and thirty
minutes, an efficient management,
and quiet moving, trained per-
sonnel.
The manner in which the exposi-
tlon moves from city to city is also
reflected in the type and kind of
entertainment provided, and the
continuous style of showing instead
of set performances.
In the main exhibition will be
seen many unusual living human
and animal attractions, including
what is said to be the worlds larg-
est living horse, a titanic Belgian
roam gelding, weighing 275O-pounds,
and standing 1872 hands tall. Com
panion exhibits include the small
est horse on earth, said to stand
21A- Inches tall, synthetic unicorn
a terrifying creature with q single
norm growing from the center of
the forehead; the tiniest living
mule, thirty-inches tall; an i'm
ported Scottish highland steer,
boasting six foot hornspread. and
rare black-and- white spotted
mule, together with other rare and
interesting creatures.
