No Law Preventing
Mayors Holding
Other Jobs

There are no statutes in Ohio
which would prevent a village
mayor holding the job of clerk
in the county engineers office,
Attorney General Thomas j. Her
bert ruled this week in an opin-
ion to Paul j. Reagen, Trumbull
county prosecutor.
If, however, the duties of each
office are so numerous or ardu-
Gus as to render unlikely a pro-
per execution of both they would
be incompatible under the COM
mon law rule. 1t is test of fact
rather than one of law.
There is a probability that if
the clerk of the county engineer
is hired for full time service it
would be physically impossible
for the same person to transact
the duties of the office of vii
lage mayor" Mr.. Herbert said.

COMEDY CAST
 SEEN IN FILM
 PLAYING HERE
The Boys from SYraeuse' Featured on Screen al
 Capitol Theatre

Opening day audiences met The Boys From Syracuse" yesterday at the Capitol Theatre and acknow- ledged the introduction with side splitting laughter and ear-split- ting applause.
 The laughter was, for one of the most unusual and colOrful comedy features ever made. The applause was for the efforts of an out standing cast, tuneful music, fast moving direction and all-round production class.
 AS stage success ''The Boys From Syracuse" is rated one of Broadway's smash musical come dies. As motion picture it will have even greater success, judging from it's reception yesterday.
 From it's opening on beautiful ancient Grecian scene into a series of whirlwind modern gags the film proved full of surprises. Its setting is the Greece of yesterday but it's comedy is as up-to-date as tomorrow.
 The story is one of domestic mix ups arising from double identity. Allan Jones has a dual role as twin brothers, one an overbearing Gre clan general and the other a TO- mantle. golden- voiced lad from Sy- racuse (Greece) He has twin slaves. both played by Joe Penner. Martha Rave is married to one of the Penner twins. Irene Hervey is mar ried to one of the Jones twins and Rosemary Lane becomes the sweet heart of the other.
 When the interloping twins are mistaken for the husbands, the en- suing situations are among the most hilarious ever screened.

Prison Gloomy for
RepentedMurderer
Death Opens Gates to Free
Colorful Prisoner.

CANON CITY, COLO.-Death has
opened the prison gates for John
Cox and ended one of the most sin
gular cases in the colorful annals of
Colorado crime.
'Old john" or 1.-The Professor"
as he was known TO the younger
prisoners at the Colorado state peni-
tertiary, now lies buried in a pine
box on Woodpecker Hill, the prison
cemetery, forgotten by relatives, If
any are living. and ignored by
friends.
He had spent "A of his 80 years
in the prison and was the oldest in
mate both in years and time served.
His number was 4,307, whereas pres
ent numbers are in the 20,000s.
An old injury to his toes, which
caused their amptuation some time
ago. began bothering him and he was
taken to the prison hospital. Blood
poisoning resulted and his left leg
was amputated just below the knee.
One Sunday morning when he ap-
peared to be recovering he turned
over to go to sleep. His heart
failed and he died.
'Old John had murdered three
men and once was sentenced to die.
In 1892 when he was 80 he was
prospecting in Fremont county. He
quarreled with another prospector
and when the quarrel was over the
prOSpector was dead, as was spec
tator to the shooting.
When l killed that man at Alt
man, he was going for his iron,"
Cox said at his trial.
Legal records have been dimmed
by time but it is believed his death
sentence for the murder was COM
muted. He was granted a pardon
in 1895 by the late Gov Albert W.
McIntire.
Two years later, on a June night,
Cox engaged in an argument with
Robert Daily, a miner, in saloon
in Cripple Creek, most famous Of
Colorado'S early gold mining towns.
Daily was shot and killed and, de-
spite Cox's self-defense plea, he was
sentenced to life.
