cx UL \, near the South Dakota state JURY CHOSEN IN TRIAL OF ASHLEY MAN Ten Farmers, Garage Man and Highway Man to Decide Adolph Spitzer’s Fate/ Linton, N. D., May 18.4-(Special to the Tribune)—Ten farmers, a garage- aan and an employe of the state highway department are to decide the fate of Adolph Spitzer,. Ashley man, who is on trial here for first degree manslaughter. “The jury was selected this morn- dng and testimony is expected to start shis afternoon, * Jurors chosen are: Walter Vohlis, farmer, Braddock; Ignatz Schmaltz, farmer, Hague; Philip Fisher, farm- er, Linton; Fred Took, farmer, lied fi John J. Scherr, farmer, Strasburg; Fred Kremer, garageman, Linton; Jake Keller, farmer, Strasburg; H. C. Benedick, farmer, Hazelton; Fred Flegel, highway department mainten- ance man, Linton; R. R. Wetsch, farmer, Strasburg; Peter Kraft, Jr,, farmer, Strasburg, and Gilbert Van Beek, farmer, living near the South Dakota state line. Spitzer was originally charged with second degree manslaughter, but an amended information filed yester- day afterrioon by Franz Shubeck, state’s attorney of McIntosh county, increased the charge to first degree manslaughter. “New information” learned by him made him decide to file the new charge, Shubeck said. To Finish Saturday Trial of the accused man, charged with “reckless and negligent driving” Fe \ when his car struck Leroy Vanormy, seven ‘old Ashley boy, and killed him, is expected to be finished by Saturday, attorneys estimated. Pleas of J. M. Hanley, Mandan, defense counsel, asking for amend- ment of the original information on the grounds that it was “too indef- inite” were granted by Judge George F. McKenna, presiding, and the changes were made. Shortly after, Shubeck filed his new information. If Spitzer is convicted, it will mean that he will have to serve a prison term ranging between five and ten years, while under the original in- formation, if he were found guilty, his maximum term would have been four years. Twelve witnesses have been called by the state and 10 by the defense. The prosecution will attempt to bring out that alleged fact that Spitzer showed evidences of having been in- toxicated when he struck the Vanormy boy, Shubeck indicated. The defense contends that Spitzer struck the boy while trying to avoid run- ning down another boy. . LINDBERGH NO “FLYING FOOL’ But Former Minnesota Youth Is Only Airman Who Flies By Periscope “< New York, May 18.—The youthful gangling, open-faced,_ pink-cheeked Captain Charles A. ‘Lindbergh re- sented with vigor, as he stopped off here on his way by airplane from the west to Paris, popular references * to him as a “flying fool.” “I’m no flying, fool,” was the way Lindbergh put his sweeping refuta- tion, as he tinkered with his plane’s periscope. ’ ‘A Periscope Pilot ; Lindbergh, whose six feet of zest- ful personality might to the im- agination have just stepped out of tne movies, is the first periscope aviator yet reported. From the cockpit of his one-seater monoplane he can’t see to the front. In that direction from his wicker chair there is to be seen only an instrument board that looks like the control center of a great power house or a telephone exchange. _ To look-ahead, as for instance in landing, Lindbergh has to push the it Ta out over the other machin- el If the vision it affords is Meitea wel Lindbergh doesn’t land ofte! ade only one stop between San Diego and New York, and in- tended to ke none between New ‘York and -Paris.

A. Paddock, assistant grand chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. 'addook, in a formal statement, a date for the suspension has been set hut would not be made pub- lic. “A’ strike will surely occur on the date and time set,” he added, “unless the railway company meets the representatives of the men to Negotiate a settlement quickly.” he eight crafts involved are: the engineers, firemen, conductors, train- men, telegraphers, jongshoremen, clerks and switchmen. Paddock’s announcement and_for- mal statement was made after Frank H, Alfred, president. and general manager of the Pere Marquette, had declined to accept arbitration. | The arbitration offer was made through John Williams, member of the fed eral board of mediation, and Wil- Yiam Blackman, conciliator of the board. 6,000 Men Affected Approximately 6,000 men would be affected by a strike order, according to union estimates. A detailed statement of the griev- ances of each craft has not been made, but it was authoritatively stat- ed that all branches of the service are seeking for a change in working con- ditions. In addition the clerks are asking wage increases. GIRL SCOUTS ARE PRAISED Need of ‘Just Girlhood’ Well Met By Organization, Mrs. Herbert Hoover Says Milwaukee, May 18.—()—Girls need the intimate counsel of the home, the authority of the school and the guidance of the church, according to Mrs. Herbert Hoover, wife of the secretary of commerce, who is ‘fn Milwaukee to attend the semi-annual conference of the jonal board of directors of the Girl Scouts. Mrs. Hoover is national vice president of the organizationtand chairman of the executive committee. In addition to. home and __ school guidance, girls also need “just girl- hood,” she said. And this need, she said, is met by the girl scout move- ment, The modern girl, she suggested, has the resources of the nation-wide or- ganization of girl scouts, while the girl of the past days sat under a tree and played with dolls, dreaming plans that never were fulfilled. Prominent gir} scout leaders at- tending the conference include Mrs. John Baxter, Duluth.
