The highest possible score was 100 per problem, the Electric Plant making a perfect score on their first problem but falling down a tle on the others, having a total score of 289, or an average of 96 1-3 for the three problems. There were three teams tied for first-place, hav- ing a total score of 293. These three teams were called upon to work off the tie on another problem, which made them finish with totals of 296, 295 and 293, respectively, placing the Electric Plant team in fourth place in the final score. All their problems were worked well within the time limits given and the errors which caused the imperfect scores ‘were all of a minor nature and would not be noticed in actual practice, but are accounted for when teams are working on a contest basis. It is expected that other first aid teams will be formed throughout the organization in order that contests within the Midwest organization may be conducted to stimulate in- terest.in first aid work. The journey to Rock Springs wa: made by automobile via Riverto and Lander, the team leaving Cas- per the morning of Thursday, July 7, arriving in Rock Springs that eve- ning and spending Friday and Satur- day there, returning to Casper on Sunday.

There is a iitle probability of the senator getting | under way with speech-making for three or four weeks yet, and it would require a rearrangement of his tentative speaking schedule, it was declared, if he accepts an Mvitation to deliver an address before that time.

INDICTMENT OF OIL MAGNATES [i+ CHALLENGED Jury - Influenced—-by Radio Address of Walsh, Charge. WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.—The tn- dictment of Albert B. Fall, E. 1. Doheny and E. L. Doheny, Jr., in connection with naval ofl leases was attacked by defense counsel in Dis- trict of Columbia supreme court to- day on the ground that Senator Walsh of Mcentana, prosecutor of the oil investigation, had delivered @ radio address ptejudicial to. them while the grand jury was consider- ing the case. An additional plea in abatement was filed by attorneys for the Do- heny who declared the Montana renator on May 6th had talked through the microphone In a speech that was widely advertised as one which would give the public the in- side information gn the oll scan- dais. At least twenty public places in Washington had loud speakers, the attorneys contended, which told pas- sersby, among whom might have been included members of the grand jury, things which could not have been received as evidence by the jurors, In addition it was claimed, 40,000 radio receiving sets in homes had listeners which might have in- cluded grand jurors. Frank J. Hogan, one of the at- torneys, said he wrete Senator Walsh that the grand jury was in session and that his statements night affect the jurors adverse’y to the interests of the persons accused but that the warning was not heeded. The fiery speech of Senator Walsh was Included in the plea filed. A for- mer plea claimed the grand jury room was invided by the unlawful presence of District Attorney Gor- don.

Parts of this area have.not been worked for years and the problem of accumulated gas made an entrance hazardous, The present working area of the mine covers approximately the same area as the unworked section. The workable area of the tine in-addi- tion to its miles of entries is said to contain between 1,500 and 2,000 working rooms, many of which it is necessary to enter on hands and knees. All of the guards which have been on duty at the mine are of the opin- ion that the fugitives perished with- in the mine and that if their bodies are recovered it will be through ac- oldent and not through any search that might be instituted. ———$$$<$—s—— GEN.

J., Aug. 12.— A tour of the eastern summer re- sorts has convinced careful observ- ers that there is it no signs of a@ recession in dahce and jazz mania which has held the United States in its grasp ever since the earlier days of our participation in the World war. The dance craze has, perhaps, its most unique expression ‘here at Spring Lake, where a wealthy New York couple, both 60 years of age or more, carry professional dancin, partners with them wherever they go. The two ‘aging devotees of terpischore, it seems, can not dance well together, but as they step out on the ball room floor with their two youthful companions, no jazz is too wild to leave them far behind its tantalizing strains. The menage, apparently, is a very happy one. Both of the young people who are. earning their livelihood by renting their dancing abilities to the two oldsters, are apparently one half the age of their employers. The four are always seen together in public. They not only dance during the regular ball room hours at their hotel, but hurry to the grill for the midnight fox trots and then very often go on out to some of the New Jersey road houses, where they dance until the early morning hours. Both of the old folks have been heard to express the hope that they might die dancing. Many stories are rife as to the salaries paid the danc- ing partners, the general opinion being that both the young man and the young, lady receive in thelr neighborhood of $5,000 a year and expenses. It also is understood that the dancing quartet will go to Florida this winter. a outsiders, the only disappoint- inf phase of this somewhat un- usual modern arrangement is that the young man and the young woman seem never to have a chance to dance together. This does not. however, appear to affect their happine: constantly expressed by faces wreathed in smile: The old folks m to enjoy also the atten- tion they attract on the floor with their boyish and girlish companions. There is little new in dancing this season. Some of the younger set try to impart a collegiate flavor to the ensemblies by somewhat grotesque fashions of placing arms and hands and by the away back pose of the girls, but that has been in vogue among them for a year or more and the dance designers or creators seem nearly to have arrived at the end of their wits. So dancing in the modérn sehse come to be a go-as-you-please fair, with fot SD cage: athe AG The jazz Nouneeiy feof t thet phony yariety in most instances, although there are occasional lapses back into the wildly wailing stuff which was so popular when this new “expression” of Americanism first came into the realm of music. Orchestra leaders are vielng with each other in attempts to jazz the classics, despite the many protests which have been made by real musicians against suc a “profan: ing” of the melodies which have been handed down through the ages and which haye come to be regarded almost as sacred. “| COULD BE, ~ PRETTY BUT-” An Appeal and a Secret «I think I could be pretty, but my hair makes me just common- lace.

Senator Reed who is. recovering from an illness of several] weeks, made the statement after he had read the address of John W. “Davis, accepting the Democratic president- fal nomination and after he had been asked whether there was any truth to rumors that he wotld support the ticket.
