16-Year-0Id Brain
OF Gang Surrenders
After Escape Friday
Search Continues for
Three Who Broke Out
OF Court Cell Block

A lad who fancies himself "the
brain" Of gang of youthful rowdies
was back in custody last night after
escaping from a United States mar
shall Friday, but officers still are
searching for three prisoners who
broke out OF the District Court cell
block the same days.
Henry B. White, Is. who refers
to himself as The Brain and gives
evidence of an overdose Of lurid
crime stories, walked into the Alex
andria police station early yester-
day and announced to Police Corpl.
Francis johnson that he was Henry
White, the Brain"
Alexandria police said the boy told
them he had done % housebreak-
ing jobs, though only IL had been
proven, and had stolen eight auto
mobiles. He recounted how he had
slipped of his handouts when fast
ened to another boy as the mar
shall was bringing them from Juve-
nile Court to District Court and
made his escape.
Proud of Record.
Corpl. johnson said White indi-
Gated he was proud Of his criminal
record and that callous press was
not giving his exploits due recogni-
ton. He pulled out a newspaper
clipping telling of an 80-mile-per-
hour drive he had made in an at
tempt to escape police. He said the
papers had spotlighted the lad with
him and this was all wrong because
he, White, was The Brain"
After his escape Friday. he said,
he went to Fairhaven to visit
friend but decided he might as we'll
go back to Jail.
Corpl. johnson phoned Washing
ton police to verify the story, and
they soon obliged White by return
ing him to custody.
Bars of Cell Sprung.
The three who escaped are Rob-
ert H. Mckinney. a. soldier who
had pleaded guilty to violation of
the National Motor Vehicle Theft
Act; Andrew c. Ware, 2l,, colored,
who had pleaded not guilty to
housebreaking and larceny, and
Cecil Diggs, colored, 81, who plead
ed not guilty to housebreaking and
larceny.
Using a brass brace they sprung
the bars of their cell, pushed out
a heavy screen and climbed up a
large outside pipe to restroom on
the floor above. From there they
made their way out of the building
without detection.
District police, FBI agents and
deputy United States marshals are
hunting them.

Girls Distribute Posters
In Tin Salvage Drive

Washingtonians were urged again
yesterday by the District Salvage
Committee to save their tin cans 10
augment the national supply of this
vital war material, and to publicize
the plea, 80 Girl Scouts distributed
posters advising: Save Your Cans
Help Pass the Ammunition"
The poster was painted by the
well-known artist, McClelland Bar
clay, who was killed in the South
Pacific while in the naval service.
The girls who distributed it in the
downtown area worked under the
supervision OF Mrs. H. A. Mariner,
Girl Scout salvage chairman.
Declaring that tin salvage in the
District has decreased to an alarm
ing degree" because housewives mis-
takingly think tin cans no longer
are needed, the Salvage Committee
said the Nation now was using IS
per cent more tin than is recovered.
Prepared tin cans. it was announced,
are collected from private home on
regular garbage collection days and
from apartment houses on the last
Thursday in each month.

Yesterday, March 4, brought cold
rain and snow as it had an his
toric custom of doing in the years
when Presidents were inaugurated
on that day.
Thousands of Washingtonians
will remember the inaugurations of
President Hoover on March 4, 1929,
and the first Roosevelt inaugural
on March 4. 1888, when raw weather
chilled the enthusiasms of the thou
sands who lined Pennsylvania ave-
nue..

call the daddy" OF all inaugural
billiards which swept over the Cap
ital on the night of March 3, 1909
and continued until mid-morning
next day.
Dampened Ardor Of Crowds.
''The weather." said The Evening
Star of March 4, 1909, reporting the
Taft Inauguration, was most freak
ish, and the blizzard conditions last
night and early this morning served
to dampen the ardor as well as the
uniforms of the visiting soldiers,
sailors and civilians"
Thirty thousand persons were to
march in the Taft parade. The Star
reported, but many fainthearted
dropped out. particularly the high
hated contingent Of political clubs. "
Along Pennsylvania avenue flags
and bunting hung limp and wet.
Trains were tied up all through
the Middle Atlantic States, largely
because many telegraph wires were
down and information for train dis
patching could not be received.
Thousands of visitors to the inaugu-
ration milled around Union Station.
