For Man Who Pleaded
Guilty in Sex Cases

ferred yesterday in the case OF
Hunter Scott Bandy, 80, of 45l6
Gladwyn drive. who pleaded guilty
in Montgomery County Circuit

case under advisement with a lee
ture to Bandy, a father, who is an
aeronantical engineer and resigned
a S6.0O0-a-y year job with the Navy
Department after his arrest in Sep
tember.
You're lucky you haven't been
killed" Judge Prescott told the de-
fendant. Many fathers. under
similar circumstances, would have
killed you. And I'm not sure they
wouldn't have been justified.
Chances of Cure Good.
DR.. Stanley H. Eldred. psychia- :
trist at Chestnut Lodge Sanitarium
Rockville, testified he had treated
Bandy for several weeks and that
his chances of being cured of alb
normal. acts were good" A Jail
term, the doctor said, would be
harmful.
The defendant said he had strug-
gled for 10 years with urges which
he was unable to control. His wife
tearfuily asked the court that they
be allowed to TRY to start all over
again unoer the care of a psychia-
trist.' Bernard Welsh. defense
counsel. sought leniency in appeal
ing a lower court sentence of one
year in the Maryland House of Cor
rection.
The State" said Judge Prescott
lis not so much concerned with
punishment in this case as it is with
protecting the small girls who fall
prey to this man.
Convicted of Assault.
Sentence also was deferred by Cir
cult Court in the case of Richard C.
Nealan, 20, a Howard County farm
hand, who was convicted by jury
Yesterday for simple assault in firing
pistol at the father of young
girl he had been forbidden to date

witnesses besides himself testifying
that he was in Howard County at
the time of the incident.
Hearing was set for December 8
in the appeal of Joseph A. Wagstaff
jr., %, of 5506 Grove street, Chevy
Chase, on a charge of malicious de-

You will be fascinated as the
water gets lower and lower in
the bottle. Then suddenly the
glorious curve of light is gone,
and the beam shines once more
straight upon the opposite wall.
What is the explanation? It is
simply that the light is imprison-
ed in the stream of water, and
light and water flow out together
in the same direction. The water
acts S "a kind of tube in which
the rays of light that pass
through the bottle are reflected
from side to side so that many
of these rays are unable to es-
cape, and so are carried into the
pail, where the illumined water
appears like liquid fire.
If you hold something in the
way of the stream of water, so
as to break the stream, the
splashing water will look like
sparks of fire. Still more beauti-
full effects may be obtained by
placing between the bottle and
the hole in the blind, as the wa
ter runs out, pieces of colored
glass, rcd, blue, green and vel
low, one after the other.
You can display your fairy
fountain even during those times
when sunlight is not available:
A flashlight may be used to send
a strong beam of light through
the water in the flask to the
small hole opposite from which
the water pours.

concerned for her; then why
should she be denied any share
alb so vitality? A secret that
could make Norah look white
ana haggard and her eyes as
bleak as INTENDED hearth fires?
Gail said CURLY, II think I'll
60 to bed. Good night"
Greg made no move to stop
her, nor any attempt to kiss her
good night. And as she went
up the stairs, her head held
high, Gail told herself savagely,
"A heck of a business. An hour
ago he was telling me he was
madly in love with me, and now
he doesn't even want to kiss
me good night"
She paused uncertainty out
side Norah's door and listened.
But if Norah was weeping her
heart out, she had her sobs so
thoroughly muffled beneath the
pillow that Gail could hear only
a silence that sounded, some
how, ominous.
She went on to her own room
and undressed, her mind busy
with the problem of why Greg,
so soon after telling her of his
love and of consenting to
marry her, should seem to for
get all about her and to be
absorbed in Norah's trouble.
She sat on the edge of the
bed, forgetting to blow out the
lamp or to crawl into bed. She
stared straight before her and
tried to get the picture straight
in her mind. Because she loved
Greg so much, he seemed to
her the most perfect creature
in the world; it was, therefore,
quite natural that she should
believe other women would find
him equally lovable. He and
Norah had been here sc long,
knowing each other so well;
naturally, Gail told herself with
a small, sick feeling tugging at
her heart, Norah was in love
with him. How could she help
it? She shifted a little in dis
dain at Greg's assurance that
Norah looked upon him as a
brother. Once she might have
accepted that, but not after the
white, stricken look on Norah's
face when she had stood, unno-
ticed, in the shadowy doorway,
watching Greg with his arm
about Gail, listening to Charles
frank approval of their engage
ment.
No, whatever Greg might
think, Norah's feeling for him
was distinctly not that of a sis
ter! Perhaps the nights that
Norah had cried herself to
sleep, the sound of her lonely
sobbing in the night, had been
because she had guessed that
Greg, in spite Of himself, was
falling in love with Gail. And
the knowledge was breaking
her heart.
Gail blew out the lamp at last

Placing one finger tightly over

Now remove your finger, and a

like liquid light or fire, and the

governor. Leading spokesman
for the delegation were Murray
James,, Josh James,, of Will
mington; State Senator Roy
Rowe; State Representatives j.
V. Whitfield and r. Bruce Hunt
er. Many members of the dele
CATION made impromptu talks.
Quite a bit of imprisoned
feeling was generated within
the delegation when it became
apparent an immediate con-
tract would not be granted. The
delegation pointed out that the
condition of the road frequently
prevents crops from being TAX
en- to markets.; increases the
costs of operating the school
buses; causes people to take a
roundabout way of getting
from Jacksonville to Burgaw;
and IN many ways entails
heavy losses on a section that
has been long-suffering about
the need for a paved highway.
Despite the urgency of the
appeal the utmost promised by
the State Highway commission
er was that bids would be ask
ed for in January and that con-
~struction would be started in
April. He did promise that con-
struction on a bridge over the
North East River would be
started in October, if approved
