As Madeline Webb's S
Detective Also Says He
Saw Missing Ring
In Models Apartment
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 15.-The black
and white silk scarf which the prose-
cutor contends was used as a gag
in the Staying of Mrs. Susan Flora
Reich, was identified today as the
property of Madeline Webb, 28-year-
old model, on trial for her life.
The identification was made by
Detective John B. Kaiser, who took
the witness stand as the trial of Miss
Webb, Eli Shonbrun, her alleged
sweetheart, and John D. Cullen,
continued before Judge Jonah j.
Goldstein and an an-male jury.
Mr. Kaiser testified the scarf was
shown to Miss Webb in the district
attorneys Office shortly after she
and her two co-defendants were ar
rested.
"she identified it by saying that's
mine,'" he said.
During the morning session, Jac-
ques Buitenkant, chief defense coun-
sci. announced that Miss Webb and
her two co-defendants would testify
In their own defense, adding, "The
whole story in this case is going to
be told"
Mr.. Kaiser, who said he was the
first officer at the scene of the crime,
a suite in the Hotel Sutton, identi-
fled the tools which the State says
were used in the strangulation Of
Mrs. Reich. wealthy Polish refu-
gee.
Ring Found in Apartment.
There were pliers, a pair of scis-
sors, roll of adhesive tape-all
these the detective testified were
in the room where Mrs. Reich's
body was found March S.
He also identified the diamond
which Jacob A. Grumet, assistant
district attorney, said was cut from
the finger of Mrs. Reich's hand.
Asked by Mr.. Grumet If he had
seen the diamond before, Mr.. Kaiser
replied:
Yes, in the apartment where
Madeline Webb and Eli Shonbrun
were living"
Tears, stormy CALCULATIONS. repri-
mands. apologies and laughter en-
livened the trial yesterday as the
testimony of timid-appearing
hotel chambermaid threw the court
room into turmoil.
The witness, Betty O'Sullivan, en-
ployed at the Hotel Sutton. identi-
fed Miss Webb and Shonbrun as
the Mr.. and Mrs Leopold, in whose
room the body was discovered.
At this the Oklahoma born for
mer dancer broke into sobs.
Later Miss O'Sullivan identified
Shonbrun's uncle, Murray Hirschl,
also a defendant, but who will be
tried separately, as a man she had
seen at the hotel only once" shortly
before the Staying.
Whereupon Shonbrun. heretofore
silent at the trial, leaped to his feet
and shouted:
Its a vicious lie! She saw him
every day for two weeks!"
Court attendants had to force
Shonbrun to sit down.

AfndZOnS ana Carried OIL tNelI queen, NIP
polita, if you remember your history. Once
captured, she submitted cheerfully and gave up
war for matrimony, bringing to Athens her sister
Emily to have someone to talk to when "
Theseus might be busy. ~
AS it happened, he was busy without
delay. Before he reached the Athenian
gates delegation of widows waited upon
him with a complaint that their husbands
had been killed in battle with Creon, King
of Thebes, and Creon, instead of burying the
bodies properly, had piled them in an open
field where the crows could eat them and the
bones bleach in the sun Theseus let Hippolita
talk to Emily while he stepped over and killed
Creon, and brought the bleached bones home for
the widows 10 do what they wanted with.
He brought home also two young captives,
Paamon and Arctic, two cousins, handsome in
the Theban style, and for reason except that
he was in the mood, he shut them up for life in
his private Jail, grim tower which overlooked
the castle garden, which was formal in design,
with roses and pinks and forget-me-nots, and
fruit trees trained flat against the walls. In the
garden paths when it didn't rain the ladies
walked daily, Emily more often than Hippolita,
for after the famous Amazon abandoned the
practice of arms she went to the other extreme

Gazing at the sunlight and the blue sky, they
thought Of their fate and shed tears but since
they we're gentlemen and devoted to each other
they were careful to divide their time at the
window equally so that each might have his share.
One day when it was Palamon's turn he saw.

The one-Way Bacon Rind Bridge
spanning the Neuse River on L. S.
Is between Durham and oxford has
a tWo-day traffic signal to notify
drivers when one car or more ap-
proaches from the opposite direction.
Tbs sketch above illustrates how this
signal works, and although its detail
is show on only one sioe Of the
bridge (the Oxford a~pproach) it
should be remembered that the
bridge is signalized similarly from the
Durham side, As a car approaches
the bridgs from either end, it runs
over a detector embedded in the
concrete surface, causing the over
head signal a short distance in front
of the car to change from rcd to q
flashing green, and at the same time
tripping a signal placed overhead on
the opposite end of the bridge, light
ing up the word CAR in the sign,
which reads "ONE LANE. CAR
AHEAD.' with CAR Illuminated.
Thus, a motorist a detect the APP
proach of another car from the Op-
pOsite direction and exercise due
|precaution in crossing the bridge.
Thirty miles per hour has been de-
as a ''safe' speed for ne
Sotiatine the bridge and the curves
approaching it. The signal was de-
by Adolphus Mitchell. traffic
engineer with the State Highway and
Public Works Commission, and it
was erected under his supervision.
