HABGOOD, JR. Advertising Manager and Solicitor MARY McCALL ALLEN, Acting City Editor FREDERICK R. SICA Sports Editor THURSDAY, JULY 21, 1938. THE WEATHER Generally fair today and tomorrow with some cloudiness. Slightly cooler tonight.

SUCKERS FOR NOVELTY This is the season when the boys who earn their daily bread by telling the public what a sucker it is have their innings. The appearance of the clowns and eccentrics in the campaign field sets the old song going again: All you need to get elected to office in this country is a checked suit, a banjo player, and a red flare. If you tire of being told what a pin-head you are at the polls, you might tell the next man who talks out of the cynical side of his mouth about one of the country's most persistent candidates. He lives in a large city in the middle west, and he started running for offices three years after the World War. He ran for mayor once on the promise to install time-clocks in City Hall.

Running for another office another year, he campaigned from a handcar. Another time, as a climax to his campaign, he went on a 110-mile hike. He indulged in speaking marathons. He was quite a card. He ran for mayor, governor, sheriff, councilman, state auditor, supreme court judge, municipal judge, and lieutenant governor.

Every campaign was a kind of public circus. He never did get elected. KILLS WOMAN AND HIMSELF Philadelphia, July 21. Caleb J. Ram-bo, 60, allegedly shot and killed a woman companion, Mary Martin, 36, with whom he had registered as man and wife, and then killed himself with the wparvon in their miri-citv hotel room shortly after noon today.

Caleb's suicide was witnessed by Catherine O'Rorke. 24. a night club entertainer who. police said, had stayed in the room overnight. Police expressed belief the shooting followed a drinking party in which Rambo and the Martin woman, who had taken the room together Tuesday, participated.

It was Miss ORorke. fleeing from the room to a nearby taproom, who summoned a friend, Christine Keely, 26, and then informed a traffic patrolman of the alleged murder and suicide. GEISHAS PROSPER Osaka, July 21. A group of 40 geishas recently purchased $3,500 worth of patriotic government bonds. Geishas continue to prosper in Japan despite difficulties that have visited other professions.

Japan, it seems, is self- sufficient in geishas, so they are not affected by Import control laws. OPTOMETRIST 3:30 to 6:00 7:00 to 9:04 P. M. Have your glasses check ed by latest mnfn. method.

Seven hundred government militiamen were taken prisoner today in violent fighting on the western sector of the Ca.stellon front, but for the first time in weeks Spanish insurgent accounts indirectly admitted that their steam-roller offensive was meeting with stubborn government resistance.

Barcelona accounts said that heavy insurgent attacks south of Barracas were repulsed and that desperate fighting continued on Castellon's left wing. Along the coast, the government militiamen under Gen. Jose Miaja recaptured the village of La Atalayn, after beating off insurgent onslaughts in the Tales sector eight miles below Onda. Contradictory insurgent claims said that all government counter-attacks were repulsed, but no claims were made of material insurgent advances. Fighting on a large scale broke out in south central Spain, in Cordova province, today after a protracted lull.

Reconciliation of Film Stars Likely Hollywood, July 21. Friends of Lupe Velez and Johnny Weissmuller hinted today that although the fiery little Mexican screen actress has filed suit for riivoiee. another reconciliation with the one-time swimming champion is quite within the realm of possibility. The peppery Lupe accuses her screen Tarzan mate of mental cruelty and charges that yi various occasions Johnny was guilty of violent displays of temper, at home and in public. Friends called attention to the fact that previously Lupe and Johnny always kissed, made up, after frequent quarrels and that's why friends of the couple wonder if the divorce ever will become a reality.

Tracy and His Bride Plan Trip to Europe Hollywood, July 21. Lee Tracy, film actor, and his bride, Helen Thomas Wyse. prepared to leave Hollywood tonight on a honeymoon trip to Europe, still smiling over the misadventure that marked their Yuma wedding. The fact that their plane enroute from Hollywood to the Arizona Gretna Green was forced down, and it was necessary for the bridal party to complete their trip by automobile, did not dampen their spirits in the least. The actor and his bride will travel to New York by train, and sail for London shortly after their arrival.

CELEBRATION PLANNED Greenville. July 21. Plans were being rapidly whipped into shape today for the celebration commemorating the 100th anniversary of the incorporation of the borough of Greenville beginning July 31 and continuing through August 6.

The history of this Mercer county community of 10,000 dates back to 1796 when a band of pioneers from West- moreland county settled here at the confluence of the Shenango rivers. But the event being celebrated with a centennial week this year is the 100th anniversary of the borough's in-I corioration in 183ft PROGRAM OPPOSED Pittsburgh. July 21. Mayor Cornelius D. Scully's $70,000,000 water supply program for western Pennsylvania today was being firmly opposed by Councilman P.

J. McArdle after he succeeded in holding up a $50,000 appropriation the mayor asked for to continue study of the project. curing less pain during the delivery of children. Not long ago when a physician in a large city recommended an overdose of one of these preparations, for an animal which had reached such an advanced stage that its existence had become a burden, a little child inquired when the animal expected to have babies. The development of innumerable preparations of this character is partly the result of advances in chemical science.

Once it has been found that a certain chemical formula is useful for a certain result, various manufacturers endeavor to make imitations of the products or improvements upon them so that every manufacturer will have a product of his own for exploitation. The first of the derivatives of barbituric acid, brought out in 1903, has been succeeded by innumerable variations. While many of these are comparatively safe if used in proper dosage and under strict control, not one of them is without danger. In overdosage all of them are poisonous. To many of them some people are especially sensitive.

One of the particular dangers with a drug classified as a hypnotic is the fact that its continued use tends to break down the will power, so that the patient himself is unable to resist overdosing w-hen the insomnia or irritation comes on. While these drugs are not habit-forming in the same sense as morphine, cocaine and mari- huana, they do have an appeal which makes persons of insufficient will power depend more and more on the drug in times of distress. HURRY! GET YOURS By DR. MOKKIS FISHBEIN, Editor, Journal of the American Medical Association, and of Hygeia, the Health Magazine. Increasingly Americans seem to be finding it difficult to sleep.

It may be the depression. It may be the speed of our lives, or something wrong with our nervous systems. Perhaps it is just tne enects of too much promotion but the sales of sleeping pills, tablets and powders are enormous. In many countries of the world it is impossible to obtain these preparations without a prescription by a doc tor, some of our cities requirements of this sort have been establish ed, but in the vast majority of the United States anyone can go in any department store, drug store, or in some instances even into a grocery store, and buy something to help in falling asleep. Once upon a time indulgence in some sleep-producing powders and potions was the inevitable accompaniment of an exhausting existence In society or in business.

Nowadays, however, all classes of society occasionally become habituated to the use of help at sleeping time. The records of the coroner's offices in many communities reveal cases of men, women, and even of children who have died as the result of overdoses. Indeed, so widespread has be come the use of some of these preparations that they are a frequent subject of conversation at tea and bridge parties. Some of these sleep-producing drugs are a part of various routines in pro SALE30 STYLES RED CROSS SHOES ALL SIZES BUT NOT OF ONE KIND YOUR SIZE IS HERE RALPH'S BOOT SHOP inc. most ALL MEN'S SUMMER Tl ft 2J CROSBY SQUARES 3t30 STYLES Arewai All Style 88 MAIN ST..
