Smith, who was thot to have died in an automobile accident February 6. Physicians and dentists Thursday disinterred the body buried as Smith, and were said to have found evidence that it was not Smith's aody. Smith, who ran for governor In 1928 on a farmer-labor ticket, was thot to have died when a truck which he was driving burst into Barnes on a highway.

The truck ttad contained 45 gallons of highly inflammable stock and poultry remedy manufactured by Smith.

But Thursday, an autopsy performed at the i equest of insurance" companies holding $50,000 worth of policies with Smith's widow as Beneficiary, showed that the body which had been buried showed stitches made by an embalmer; the body contained- embalming fluid, and that dental work in the mouth did not correspond to work done by two Perry dentists on Smith, Police were at a loss to know whether the naming truck had contained an already embalmed body, or whether the grave had been disturbed, and.Smith's body removed. The undertaken, however, said that the body examined Thursday was the same which he had buried, thus leaving police with only the theory that Smith had not, been killed in the accident, but that another body had been placed in the truck prior to the burning.

COACHES WANT NEW JOBS (Continued From Page One) Burton Ingwerson, Otto Vogel, David Armbruster, Pollie Williams, Mike Howard, E. G- Shroeder and Charles Kennett The assertion came out during cross-examination of Belting by Harry G. Walker, attorney for the university. Walker was referring to the resignation of Coach Barry a year ago, and attempting to set forth that all other Iowa coaches were satisfied with their jobs. Belting blocked the inference, by saying, "yes, the coaches are all still there, sitting their chairs, waiting until they can get other jobs." During the cross-examination Belting became bitter in his resentment against University of Iowa officials following his resignation as athletic director.

He said he had lost "every friend I had in Iowa City," and that certain university officials were even now -attempting to keep Mm from securing another job. Being asked for proof of this statement, Belting accused Paul C- Packer, dean of the college of edu cation, of interfering. Pres. Walter Jessup of the university was a defender of Dr. Paul E.

Belting before the latter's resignation from the school, it was brot out Friday before the legislative committee investigating the school. Under cross examination by attorneys for the university Belting admitted that Jessup was criticized for not asking for Belting's resignation during the period when Iowa was losing so many games but Belting said he had reason to expect support from the president Attorney Harry G. Walker, attorney for the board of education, forced Belting to' admit that the transfer of.f 1,500 from athletic department funds to a special account falling to appear before tLe athletic council at the time his resignation was accepted. Belling said be had been "railroaded and doublecross- ed out of chance to protest his resignation before the athletic council by President Jessup's suggestion that he let the president handle this Senator Baird attempted to find out if the controversial $1,500 had been tax money provided by the state. Upon Belting's statement that It had all been taken from athletic game receipts Baird said: "I cannot understand this prolonged investigation if the stale of Iowa had no connection in a monetary jsenae." The cross examination revealed that there are many meritorious cases of loans needed by who are athletically inclined.

It was when these athletes to dropped from university for non-payment of tuition that whole matter for which Iowa later expelled from the Big Teu came to a head. This situation resulted Belting said, in the president of the university asking him to find some way of loaning money for the tuition and a'lowlng the athletes to remain in school.
