Famous Novelist Is Dead in Minnesota Northfield, Minn., Nov. 6—(#)—O. Rolvaag of Northfield, for more than 20 years a professor at St. Olaf college and in recent years a novelist Of international reputation, died at his home Thursday following a heart lattack. While at St. Olaf college in 1926, Professor Rolvaag was decorated a knight of St. Olaf by order of King Haakon of Norway. Professor Rol- vaag’s novels, written in Norweigan on northwest themes, are “best sell- ers” in Norway. Perhaps. the best known of his writings is “Giants in and Carl Gilbertson, superintendent |the Barth.

Shortly afterward, aboard the bat-' tleship Maryland, a petty officer was! crushed in the mechanism of another anti-aircraft gun and injured so bad- ly he is not expected to survive. ‘The two accidents occurred as the dreadnaughts were near Santa Rosa Island, a few miles off Santa Barbara, repulsing & mythical enemy air force attack. The accident aboard the Colorado was one of the worst in peace time since the disastrous explosion in a gun turret aboard the U. 8. 5.

The Saratoga was ten miles off shore. His companion, George H. Cummings, aviation pilot, escaped injury. Local navy officials clamped down a strict censorship here and first word of the tragedy came from Washington when the navy department revealed the accidents. Admiral Richard H.

STAINS FOUND ON | DEFENDANTS PANTS CAUSED BY BLOOD Expert Testifies in Murder Trial of William Savora at Minot Minot, N. D., Nov. 6.—(#)—Stains William Savora, on trial in district court here charged with the first- degree murder of his housekeeper, Mrs. Dena Korchenko, September 22, were those of human blood, Dr. C. A. Muehlberger of Chicago, chemist and toxicologist, testified for the state Thursday. Mrs, Korchenko was found dead on the morning of Sept. 23, her body ly- ing behind a hedge near the Savora house, death having been due to a cut throat. 2 Another chemist, Elmer J. Pearson, Minot, who preceded Dr. Muehlberger on the stand, testified there were bloodstains on the trousers, but said he did not make a test to determine if they were human. Dr. Muehlberger was unable to say how long the stains had been on the trousers, but he estimated they had not been there more than two months when he made his examination in October. ‘ Police Sergeant O. R. Vold, first of- ficer to arrive at the scene. described conditions as he found them. Vold said in searching the Savora premises he found some mash in an ashpile at the rear of the house and som? home-made beer in containers along- side the house. There were indica- tions, he declared, that the mash re- cently had been placed in the ashpile and had been covered. Dr. R. W. Pence, Ward county cor- ‘oner, testified the woman's death was due to a cut throat. New York, Nov. 6.—(P?}—By @ device almost as simple as Frank- lin’s kite, R. J. Van de Graaff, a young American scientist, pro- duces enormous voltages of elec- trical energy. His discovery will be developed immediately at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to 15,000,- 000 or 20,000,000 volt capacity for experimenting with the possibil- ity of transmuting the elements on a practical, commercial scale. This revolutionary electrical development is announced by the American Institute of Physics. Van de Graaff’s first’ machine will be displayed Tuesday night at the inaugural dinner here of the in- stitute. Van de Graaff went back close to first principles of electricity. While at Princeton university as a national research council {el- low, he developed a machine which produces great electrical energy much as the old fashion- ed endless chain in a well fills a large bucket with water. Van de Graaff's endless chains are endless belts of silk ribbon. They gether electricity on their Young Inventor Makes Simple Device To Develop Heavy Electric Voltages surfaces by passing close to brushes connected with direct current generators. This electri- city is carried up the ribbon belt to the inside of a metal sphere, the size of a bushel basket. There another brush takes the electricity off the ribbon and deposits it up- on the inside of the sphere. But electricity won't stick on the inside of the sphere, it gath- ers immediately on the outer sur- face. So the sphere accumulates a charge, just like filling a water bucket. One of Van de Graaff's belts carries positive electricity to one sphere and the other belt neg- ative electricity to the other globe. When the globes are fully charged, the electricity discharges between them in a lightning flash. ‘With apparatus costing but $90 ‘Van de Graaff produces a 1,500,- 000 volt discharge. Bigger spheres mean still great- er voltage. For the Massachusetts Institute of Technology experi- ments Van de Graaff will build globes 15 feet in diameter. These are expected to give 15 to 20 mil- Mon volts, but it is estimated that the device can be enlarged to a 50,000,000 volt power. | Cousresman Dis || Sheepman’s Slayer Enters Guilty Plea FIVE MEN DIE AS PLANE TAKES FIRE AT PORT IN JERSEY Craft Buries Nose in Golf Course After Frantic Strug- gle By Pilot Camden, N. J., Nov. 6—(?)—Five men—two pilots and three passengers —were burned to death when a New- ark-to-Washington passenger airlin- er, maneuvering for a landing at the Camden airport, Thursday night, plummeted into the soft turf of a nearby golf course and burst into flames. Something went wrong—an investi- gation Friday hoped to fix the re- sponsibility—and the plane dropped like lead, its nose burying itself in two feet of earth. Flames wrapped about the wrecked liner as it struck the earth, driving back hundreds of per- sons who sped to the rescue of the crash victims. Terrific heat made Tescue work impossible and the bodies of the victims could not be reached until the Pensauken fire department had extinguished the flames. At the controls of the ship was Floyd Cox, a veteran flier with more than 3,000 hours flying experience. In the cabin behind were Vernon Lucas, a fellow pilot going back to his Wash- ington home after a flight to New York; Elmer Smith, advertising man- ager of the Washington Herald; George B. Taylor, director of the la- boratory division of the Chestnut Farms Dairy in Washington, and Francis R. Ehle, of Riverton, N. J., president of the International Resist- ance company. All were burned beyond recognition, although none were ed. Cox had his hand on the strick,.apparently having died desperately striving save the lives of himself charges. Grand Forks, N. D., Nov. 6.—(?)— Vernon Lucas is the son of Mrs. Iva Lucas of Grand Forks and is well known here. Mrs. Lucas was informd of her son’s death in a long distance call from his wife. Lucas’ home is at Alexandria, Va., just outside Washington, and he had flown a passenger plane from Wash- ington to New York City daily since August, 1929. At that time he took the run of Pilot Stow, who lost his) life when he crashed with the air liner, “City of San Francisco,” in the mountains of West Virginia, his mother said. Lucas had visited in Grand Forks frequently and made his last trip to this part of the country last July. His mother has lived here for the last three years. His father is located at Emerson, Man. In addition to his parents, wife and children, Lucas is Polio by three brothers and a sis- r. Before he became an airplane pilot, Lucas was connected for four years with a radio station at Fargo.

A state transportation officer will bring him here from the Adams county Jail where he was held overnight. Paladichuk will enter prison three days after his arrest at South St. Paul, Minn., on a charge of first- degree murder. He confessed to shooting and beating Sipe, with rob- bery the motive. He sought hoarded money reputed to be hidden in the sheepherder’s shack near Belfield, but found none. Since the arrest of the Gorham, N. D., farm boy at South St. Paul Tuesday night, authorities set legal machinery in rapid operation to send him to prison. He waived extradition, and was brought to North Dakota the following day. Thursday afternoon he was arraigned at Medora and Pleaded guilty. Last night he was hurried to Hettinger where Judge Lembke convened court at 10 p. m., heard the youth's plea of guilty, and sentenced him.

Nonchalance Deserts Him Brought before the justice, his nonchalant spirit deserted him and he appeared near the breaking point. In his. confession he told how he went to the lonely shack where Sipe lived 20 miles north of Belfield and attacked the man. He first shot him, then beat the partially crippled sheepherder, who died October 29, six days after the assault. The youth said he searched for money but found none. He told how he tore open Sipe’s shirt pocket, which he believed contained con- siderable currency, but none was there. Last Sunday, after he arrived at South St. Paul on a stock train on which he fled from Billings county, he begged an acquaintance for 50 cents with which to buy food. He was taken into custody at the home of relatives.
