Hauptmann Execution Indefinitely Stayed Trenton, N. J., Feb. 21—)—The Jexecution of Bruno Richard Haupt- mann, convicted murderer of Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr., was stayed indefi- \nitely at 12:15 p. m. Thursday when \a certified copy of a writ of error was \filed with the clerk of the state prie | son, | Hauptmann had been sentenced to die the week of March 18. Defense Counsel Frederick A. Pope and C. Lioyd Fisher presented the writ to Irving Bleam, the prison jelerk, within an hour after they had filed the original writ with the clerk |of the court of errors and appeals, the state's highest tribunal. Argument on the writ will be heard either in the May or October term of the court. The defense has indicated it will seek to have the argument postponed until the latter date, which with the time required for handing down the decision and the further Possible appeal to the court of pare dons would delay the execution of the death sentence until sometime early next year. Governor Calls for Holiday Observance Governor Walter Welford Thursday called on the people of the state to observe February 22, birthday of George Washington, first president of the nation, as a time for “study and prayer to profit by the examples in his life.” Governor Welford declared in his Proclamation that conditions “in our state when thought of in terms of sacrifice, deprivation, hunger, or gen- eral need, are mere trifles when com- pared in degree with similar condi- tions that confronted George Wash- ington.” He called upon the citizens of “this great state to take and set aside some part of the day February 22 for study of the life and accomplishments of George Washington and that a prayer be made to the Almighty God to | give us the power to profit by the ex- amples in the life of George Wash- ington.” large audience in ripples of laughter with their version of “The Whole Town's Talking,” farce in three acts by John Emerson and Anita Loos, staged Wednesday evening at the Bis- marck city auditorium. The vehicle gives endless comedy situations as it develops that Henry Simmons, portrayed by Frederick Monley, and the hapless Chester Binny (Emmett McOusker), partner of Simmons, enter into a conspiracy to have Ethel Simons (Catherine Brown) marry Binney. Mrs. Simmons (Mary Cayou) is drawn into the plot and approves it heartily after her hus- band and Binny trump up an imagin- ‘ary love affair for Binny with Letty Lythe, movie actress, enacted by Cora Marie Strauss. ‘The Lythe appears on the scene after “the whole town’s talking” about ‘Chester and he is engaged to marry Ethel. Roger Shields, a young Chi- ci in love with Ethel, ‘Wallace Maddock, and Donald Swift, (Paul Gorman), motion picture actor who is engaged to Letty, give Sim- mons and Binny some bad moments but all ends happily when Binny con- fesses and Ethel finds that her mod- ern ideas gained in Chicago do not work in real life. Monley Is Popular Monley, who has appeared in shorter roles in Bismarck, won genuine pop- ularity in the Simmons role. He has ease and naturalness and knows stage business and, with the ald of McCus- ker, kept the play moving. McCusker is a veteran of several Community Players’ appearances and again ac- quitted himself favorably. Miss Cayou has @ flair for gesture and, with Miss Brown, shone among the feminine players. Miss Brown projected her lines clearly and acted with charm. Miss Strauss, who scored a hit in “The Torchbearers” last fall, appeared only briefly but gave a good account of herself in a none too easy dramatic situation. The casting of Maddock was happy and he gave an able interpretation, Marian Curran, as the dancing teacher, Margaret Lefor as the maid and Ruth Hintgen and Margaret For- tune as friends of Ethel entered into their parts with sincerity. Paul Gor- man was a bit slow in getting into his part as the blustery ex-prize fighter and director, but on the whole turned in a good performance. Take Minor Parts Peggy Homan, Margaret Fox and Beverly Bauer and John Wingate as the taxi driver were the others cast in minor parts. A particularly pleasing feature of the performance was the appropriate- ness of the costumes worn. All the by | women players appeared in advance spring styles. A luxurious stage was set in the new futuristic scene pre- pared by the Community Players for their last offering, “Her Husband's Wife.” The Cathedral Players are proving TONIGHT ELKS CIRCUS WORLD WAR MEMORIAL BLDG.

Montana Prisoner Is Held Here Overnight Jack Sewell, who is being returned from Newton, Iowa, to Red Lodge, Mont., where he must face charges of first degree burglary, was lodged in the Burleigh county jail Wednesday night by W. H. Moore, Jr., deputy sheriff from Red Lodge. Sewell sawed through the bars of the jail at Red Lodge several weeks ago and was picked up later at the Iowa city. Moore is taking extra precautions with his prisoner this time but was forced to have the handcuffs sawed from Sewell’s wrist Wednesday when the key failed to work.
