409.4 4 TWO SANTA CRUZ SENTINEL, SANTA CRUZ, CALIFORNIA Friday, January 10, 1936 PACIFIC GROVE KIDNAP STORY PROVES "FAKE" SALINAS, Jan. Grove's girl "kidnaping case" broke down today when the vietim tearfully confessed to authorities that her story was a hoax. Meanwhile, Earl Riley, 19, member of the searching party who found 16 year old Alma Lewis after she had been missing for 27 hours, admitted to Probation Officer Ney Otis today of helping her prepare the kidnap story. The Lewis girl was reported missing Saturday night. A state- wide search was started for the girl and early Monday morning she was "found" by Riley on the CarmelPacific Grove highway.

The girl told of being forced into a car by two men and taken a long distance to a wooded district, where she was attacked. They turned her loose many hours later and she was forced to walk home, she said. The discovery of a purse in the hay loft of a barn in Pacific Grove on Cedar street yesterday helped authorities solve the mystery, when it was 1 identified as belonging to Miss Lewis. The purse was found by Lynd Agnew and Dell Dutra, CCC boys from the Presidio who kept a horse in the barn. After lengthy questioning, Riley told the probation officer that the girl had told him Saturday that she was going to run away from home.

He said he had attempted to persuade her not to leave home and finally had agreed to help her plan the runaway. Mrs. Margaret J. Wilsey, Pioneer, Dies at Age 86 Mrs. Margaret Josephine Wilsey, a California pioneer, having come to this state from St.

The building was located on the 101 highway in the Carneros district southeast of Watsonville. Cause of the fire was undeterminel and an estimate of the value of the building was given as $800. The school was a one-room building. Mrs. Elma Vedowa is the Carneros district teacher.

Phone 525 NEW PLAY SHOWING IN S. F. BOOSTED BY SAN FRANCISCAN (By Austin B. Fenger) One of the best, most unique, and all-around thrilling melodramas that has hit this coast in many moons is "Night of January 16," a brilliantly written conception in three acts by Ayn Rand now playing currently 'at the Geary theater, San Francisco. Those who go, and there should be many, expecting to find melodrama in the old sense with mustacioed villains, swooning heroines, and much doing of right by our Nell will be disappointed.

For this "Night of January 16" is as modern as a white leather chair. But it is smart. It is well acted. It is crisply written. It is darned good theater.

The play opens with Karen Andre, excellently portrayed by the sleek Nedda Harrigan, on trial for the murder of Bjorn Faulkner, who bears a strange similarity to a recent Swedish match king. The jury is chosen from the audience, those wishing to do so having registered for jury duty first. The twelve whose names are called see the entire play from the stage and are then paid the customary $31 fee in cash. Which makes the evening a most pleasant and possibly even profitable one for those accepting service. So, when you go, register.

You'll have a lot of fun. And so will your friends. And you'll get paid for it too. Those taking advantage of the chance when this reviewer saw the play included George Payne, publisher of the San Jose News and newly appointed state boxing commissioner, and Misses Patricia Tobin (and Carolyn Anspacher, San Francisco socialites. Now the jury really juries! If the verdict is guilty, the play has one ending but a totally different ending if the verdict is not guilty.

And there are moans and gasps from the audience no matter what the decision. Herbert Rawlinson, former movie star of lo! these many years, returns to public view as Defense Attorney Stevens. He grimaces a bit at times but his diction is good and he should be material for the talkies. As Walter Winchell might ask, District Attorney Flint (Edwin Maxwell) reminds one of what San Francisco criminal a attorney? Maxwell is good. He gives the feel of the court, a trial for murder, and harangues the jury in great style, marshalling before them what calls his facts.

Other splendid performances were given by David Thursby, nightwatchman of the Faulkner building; Alexander Cross, private detective; Wedgewood Nowell, father of the tearless, red-headed, good-profiled, and tricky-hatted widow Faulkner (Charlotte Wynters); Reginald Sheffield as Sigurd Jungquist; and John Gallaudet as "Guts" Regon, the flying Al Capone. Eleanor Wesselhoeft was just too, too Swedish as Madga Svenson, housekeeper, though she envisioned some luscious moments in the penthouse. While the jury considers its decision, there is a -spotting of the dramatic and conflicting evidence that has families arguing all the way out the aisles as to the guilt or innocence of the ravishing, and ravished, Karen Andre. Don't miss this. It's one of the best things that San Francisco's Geary theater has shown in many weeks and more power to the astute Ralph Pincus, Geary theater manager, for it's production.

But when you go don't sit on the right-hand side of the house; the radiator clanks sumpin' awful! BIG SLIDE NEAR RINCON ALMOST BLOCKS HIGHWAY The heavy rain of yesterday and last night caused several slides on the highways north of this city. A motorist ran into the police station about midnight, very much excited, and reported a big slide between here and Felton, not far from Rincon, that almost completely blocked the highway. He said he had hard work getting past it. Two small slides on the road in the Inspiration Point zone threatened to cause trouble but did not develop very dangerous. Notes Felton A.
