No. 7 ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1934 PRICE FIVE CENTS Special Jury Will Judge Hauptmann District Attorney F ol e y Continues Questioning Suspect's Acquaintances Psychiatrists Will Examine Prisoner Enrollment Increase Less Than Expected Latest enrollment figures set the number of students who have en- tered the University this year at 8,713, an increase of 851, or 10.8 per cent over the 7,862 registered in the same period last year. At the end of last week, the gain over the school year 1933-34 was -16.5 per cent, but the drop report- ed yesterday is probably due, in the opinion of Dr. Frank E. Rob- bins, assistant to the president, to the large number of students who came early to avoid payment of extra fees for tardy registration, and those who returned in ad- vance to secure FERA jobs. The literary college shows a net increase of 563 students over last year. The engineering college registers a gain of 175.

Foley announced today. The district attorney said that the motion will be made to get the trial under way speedily, but he declined to state the trial date. "Maybe about a week from next Wednesday, we might go to trial," Foley said. Previously it had been pointed out that the trial date would depend on the outcome of conferences between the prosecutor and defense counsel. Foley continued today the question- ing of friends and acquaintances of Hauptmann, many of whom have been found in albms taken from H'auptmann's Bronx home several days ago. Kloppenburg Questioned One of these friends, Hans Klop- penburg, returned to Foley's office for further questoning today after being interviewed for five hours by Foley and members of his staff yes- terday.I The district attorney made it clear that no suspicion is attached to Klop- penburg. Foley said today that early next week three psychiatrists, one ap- pointed by the district attorney's of- lice, op the state, ofNew jergsey and one by fi defense, will examine Hauptmann. The hope of Chicago police that they had nabbed the man who re- ceived the ransom seemed to fade to day as Chief of Detectives John L. Sullivan, of Chicago, announced that he could find nothing tangible to link Joseph Bowman' with the crime. Bowman, alias James O'Dea, an ex- convict, and his wife were seized last night, Bowman was questioned dur- ing the early morning by Melvin H. Purvis, chief of the Chica go unit of the bureau of investigation. Police said that the suspect bore a "striking resemblance" to the "John" glimpsed by Dr. J. F. (Jafsie) Condon during the payment of ransom. Fisch's Brother Quizzed "We have nothing to link this man to the Lindbergh kidnaping except an anonymous tip received last night," the detective chief admitted. Detective Arthur Johnson, of the New York police, arrived in Leipziz, Germany, today and questioned Pin- kus Fisch, brother of the late Isa- dor Fisch. Hauptmann, in explaining to police his possession of $14,500 of Lindbergh ransom money, said that it had been entrusted to him by Isidor when he went to Germany last De- cember. Isador died in Germany last March. Rain today drove police searching for additional clews at Hauptmann's to the cellar of the building. Thus far police carpenters and detectives have pulled apart Hauptmann's garage. The work of sifting the garden plot was begun yesterday but the heavy rain halted additional work outside.

Plan Substitute Cattle Food In Drouoht Area Scientist Discovers N e w Product Which T a k e s Place Of Forage BALTIMORE, Sept. 29. - (P) - Two new cattle foods, one looking like a plug of tobacco and the other like Boston brown bread, both offering aid for stock feeding in drought areas, have been announced. The plug is made of molasses and cottonseed meal; the Boston brown bread of molasses and corn meal. Both use a new scientific principle for mixing molasses which has been for many years a cattle fattening food but difficult to handle because of its stickiness. The new process was announced by Guy Leonard, a chemical engi- neer. He is well known among chem- ists as the man sent here from Eng- land in the World War to assist in developing an acetone process for use in making cordite. Leonard takes all the stickiness out of the molasses by masking it with cottonseed or corn oil. Into a hot pot he pours molasses and the meal de- sired for cattle feed. Mechanical vanes keep the mixture stirring. The heat first dries the water out Final arrangements for the special engagement of "The Human Ad- venture," a full-length talking pic- ture which sketches the rise of man from savagery to civilization, have been completed, according to Uni- versity officials. The film was produced under the scientific supervision of Dr. James H. Breasted, famous archeologist and historian, with the facilities of thej Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago, the largest archeological or- ganization in the world. Direction and narration of the film is by his son, Charles Breasted, executive sec- retary of the Institute. The campus presentation of this picture was made -possible through the work of Prof. H. A. Kenyon, Uni- versity Director of the Lydia Mendel- issohn Theatre. The film, which required more than three years to complete, grew directly out of the researches and explora- tions of the Oriental Institute - the first and only laboratory for the study of what Dr. Breasted describes in the film as "the most remarkable pro- cess known to us in the universe: the rise of man from savagery to civiliza- tion." The picture carries the observer by airplane through the lands where civilization first arose - Egypt, Pales- tine, Syria, Anatolia, Iraq, and Per- sia - and other places to which the Institute has dispatched altogether fourteen expeditions. Eight of these are observed while actually engaged in the scientific recovery of the lost chapters of human history. Special planes were chartered and professional cameramen were em- ployed to produce a story which has never before been told on the screen. Two separate trips were made from Chicago to the Near East to produce the film. More than 32,000 feet of negative were exposed, and much of the film was made from the air in more than 9.000 miles of flying. Although -the exact date for the presentation has not yet been an- nounced, it has been announced that it will appear about the week of Oc- tober 14th, and it has been empha- sized that the picture is of such a nature that it will be of particular interest to all students of history, archeology, fine arts, anthropology. 1 _ _ ; Of Man 's Rise To Civilization Chiselers Suspected In FEIIA Polc e Are At A Standstill In Goodrich Hunt All Clues In Search For Murder Suspect Prove To Be Groundless DETROIT, Sept. 29 - (P) - The search for Metton Ward Goodrich, sought since Wednesday in connec- tion -with the brutal slaying of 11- year-old Lillian Gallaher,. was prac- tically at a standstill tonight, as pol- ice of several cities and states check- ed hundreds of clues and found most of them valueless. Fred W. Frahm. chief of dectectives here, expressed the opinion that "it is just about time that he was arrest- ed, someplace," but admitted that police have little on which to base their search for Goodrich and his Wife. Although reports have come from all parts of the United States and even from Canada, police have con-i sidered seriously only those from Ohio, the home state of the fugitive. Tonight, advices from Cleveland said police are convinced Goodrich has not been in that city since the slaying. Detective Gilbert Mosley, who directed the search for Goodrich both in Cleveland and Akron, said all tips have been thoroughly checked without a valuable clue being discov- ered. Hungry Eskimos Un knowingly Save Herder's Fortune, SEATTLE, Sept. 29-- R) -Andrew Bahr's mission of mercy to starving Eskimos preserved his lifetime savings for a while at least, for lawyers even today can't serve a court summons on a reindeer herder 100 miles north of the Arctic Circle. Bahr was directing the herding of 3,000 reindeer more than 1,000 miles across the northern tundras-food' for a village of hungry Eskimos on Richards Island, in Beaufort Sound, off the Arctic Ocean-when the courts gave judgment against him. He doesn't know it yet, and his little for- tune is safe until he returns from the frozen North. The story behind it is this: Bahr, a Laplander, married Mrs. Marith Bahr in 1927 and came to Seattle to invest $60,000 so they could live comfortably the rest of their lives. They brought two apartment houses. Mortgages were involved, for he bor- rowed $40,000. The Canadian Government learned of the plight of the Eskimos, and con- tracted with the Lomen Reindeer Co., who picked Bahr as the only avail- able man able to guide the big herd on its long trek. The depression struck, hurting apartment owners. An insurance company obtained a judgment against Bahr for $52,741, after suing for the money he owed them. Judge Clay Allen issued an order setting aside the judgment, dimissing the suit, and the action must begin all over again when Bahr returns from the Arctic. Professor Glover Will Remain At University pnf Tam a m7 !S7 -r a of + Giant Liner To Explore White SpotsOf Brazil Delay In Delivery Of Oil Engines Halts Shipment Of Air Cruiser FRIEDRICHSHAFEN, Sept. 29 - W) - Her huge duraluminum frame completed, the glittering skeleton of Germany's super giant of the air idly hangs inside the Zeppelin hangar here awaiting installation of her four powerful crude-oil motors. Meanwhile, plans are being com-, pleted for an exploration tour with the "LZ 129" over the "white spots" on the map of Brazil. Handicapped by delay in delivery of the crude-oil engines, the satisfac- tory solution of the motor problem keeping the engineers of three lead- ing German motor factories busy on the test stands, the finishing touches to the monster air cruiser cannot be expected until February, 1935. Almost twice as large as the storm- tried veteran "Graf Zeppelin," the new sister ship, having a capacity of 6,600,000 cubic feet, measuring 812 feet in length and 132 feet in height over all, will likely be named for the late soldier-president, Paul von Hind- enburg. Eckener to Conduct First Tour "Because of climatic conditions the dirigible will start on the scientific flight at the latest in August, 1935," said Dr. Hugo Eckener, adding "pro- vided, however, that the hangar at Rio de Janeiro is ready by that time. Otherwise, the expeditin must be postponed until the early summer of 1936." The skilled pilot will com- mand the ship during this spectacular exploration tour. Appliances which permit the diri- gible to be "anchored" in the air and also enable passengers to alight and embark by means of a tackle device are said to make the "LZ 129" most suitable for such an enterprise. The Brazilian Government has agreed to the plan of the expedition which will be headed by the German explorer, Paul Vageler, professor at the Agricultural Institute at Berlin- Dahlem. Vageler went to Rio de Janeiro several months ago to make financial and scientific arrangements for the flight. Senator Nye To Discuss Munitions Investigation U. S. Senator Gerald P. Nye of North Dakota will address the stu- dent body at 3 p. m. Tuesday in the ballroom of the Union, according to officials of the Union organization, who completed arrangements for the program last night. Senator Nye will also be present at a luncheon Tuesday noon at the Union, at which 25 prominent faculty members and undergraduates will be in attendance. He is scheduled to address a meeting in Detroit Tues- day night. It is expected that he will speak on the current munitions investiga- tion at Washington, which has at- tracted nation-wide interest. Sen- ator Nye is recognized as one of the 'leading figures in the probe. According to Allen D. McCombs, I 35 president of the Union, the Official Asks Co-operation Of Students In Drive To Correct FERA Abuses Jobs To Be Givei To Most Deserving Reporting Of Unworthy Job-holders Would Give Work To Needy Students "Chiselers" probably exist among those students having FERA jobs, Prof. Lewis Gram, chairman of the FERA committee of the University, said yesterday. There is a pressing need to weed out these students to give jobs to men and women on the campus who are really in need of employment and who are now on the waiting list, said Pro- fessor Gram. A check-up on those who have falsified their financial position on the application blanks to get jobs is practically impossible from the administration offices of the FERA, he claimed. The only thing that will help, he continued, is the active participation of the student body in reporting cases of "chiselers" of which they have knowledge. Scattered reports of persons having jobs and who do not need them come into his office, he declared, but no names have been divulged and no action could accordingly be taken. If the students on the campus under- stood the dire need of scores of per- sons who were unable to get into the FERA quota of jobs they would be less reticent to divulge instances of "chis- eling," he said. The answers that were filed in the application blanks as to financial con- dition by students desiring jobs were accepted as true by the committee be- cause of the practical impossibility of tracing them as to their honesty or falsity. On the other hand, he said,. if cases were reportd to him by other students who had knowledge of a person getting a job on false state- ments, he could take action to replace him with a student who had filed a true affidavit. Professor Gram also wished to 'an- nounced that 152 students who have applied for FERA jobs have not fill- ed out personal cards. He said that those students who are on the wait- ing list should fill these out as well as those on the eligible list because vacancies in the eligible list will occur. F.D®R. To Report To Country With Defence Of NRA Tomorrow's Broadcast' Designed To Get Backing From People WASHINGTON, Sept. 29. - W) - President Roosevelt drafted today a new accounting of his Administration, designed among other things to stop business and political critics of the NRA and send that reshaped agency off to a flying start. . In what is intended as a man to man chat with the people by radio tomorrow night he will speak in this fashion for the first time since last June when he left for a Hawaiian vacation. The three months interval has brought new and outspoken demands from business leaders for at least a new definition if not a shift in the present trend of administration pol- icies -especially those vital ones dealing with government spending, budget balancing, currency stabiliza- tion and NRA control of business. The same period has allowed Pres- ident Roosevelt personally to tour the country. BAD DREAM COMES TRUE ST.\STEPHEN, N.

While unloading a ship- ment of cars a hoisting chain broke. The car pinned him and in addition to a broken back he suffered frac- tures of one leg and four ribs. His condition is critical. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. 29- '(AP)-A report attacking President and Mrs. Roosevelt because of an al- leged hilarious "beer party" in the White House last Christmas was re- jected today by the New Jersey con- ference of the Methodist Episcopal Church after lengthy debate. The strong censure of the Chief Executive was contained in a report by the temperance board of the con- ference, presented by the Rev. L. L. Hand of Lambertville, its chairman. Hardly had he completed the read- ing of the report when clergy and a true citizen to read in bold head- lines 'Beer Floods White House'," the report read, and continued its al- leged quotation with "'The stately front hall was piled with kegs of beer and the dancers drank to satisfy themselves of the Rooseveltian bev- erage. In the conviviality of the oc- casion all formality was thrown over- board and hilarity reigned'." "Such is the example which the Chief Executive and the First Lady set for the youth of the nation," the report concluded. In Washington, Stephen P. Early, a prsinia se reta,,v termr]th
