LEOPOLD WILL BURY PART OF CRIME TALE Rich Prisoner Says World Never to Know Whole Story of Franks' Murder. DECLARES LOEB IS BLUFFING Regards Alienists' Efforts to Save Him as Boresome. By the Assoriated Press, CHICAGO, June 17.—Nathan Leo- pold, jr. university graduate student and millionaire’'s son, awaiting trial with Richard Loeb, also the son of a millionaire, on charges of kidnaping and slaying Robert Franks, son of a third millionaire, which they have ad- mitted, declares the real story of the boy’s death never will be told, al- though previously they havs main- tained they kidnaped and Killed for a thrill and the $10,000 they demanded as a ransom, said today's Chicago Herald and -Examiner. Both boys are being given intricate physical and psychological tests by alfenists, whose reports will be the basis of the defense in their trial set for August 4. Leopold “is quoted by the newspa- DCr a8 saying only the two defense attorneys, two examining. alienists and Loeb and himself will ever know anything regarding the plan or exe- ention of it that resulted in the dou- ble indictment of the two for capital offenses. Will Keep World Ignorant, “The world will be kept in igno- mance” Leopold is quoted as saying, *3s to how long it was in the mind of cither of us, who proposed the matter, who was the persuasive one, who cxe- cuted it.” He said both he and Loeb had told the entire truth to the examining sci- entists. ““They have pictured me as inordi nately cruel, inhuman, and unfeeli Jicopold was quoted. “‘but ‘Dicky foeb, evidently because of his guile- less appearance, his winsome smile, and his soulful’eyes, seems to have won the sympathy of the public.” “If the public only knew what T know about ‘Dicky’ Loeb, they would know that behind that mask of inno- cence there is a brain that is much mare acute and subtle than mine and that he can maintain that appearance of innocence after having done things a short time before at which I would shudder.” | - “That early-to-bed motto is OK,” says “ Babe” Ruth, king of swat™ Credit for his great “comeback” - last year and the fine condition in which he faced the present season, “Babe™Ruth gives almost entirely to plenty of sound, restful sleep. “Whoever it was that said ‘early to bed makes a man healthy and wise’, knew what he was talking about,” the home-run star says. “Ineverfelt better or knew sowell what a difference there is between fect condition and just good MARY AND DOUG GIVEN GLAD HAND IN BERLIN Greeted by Fair-Sized Crowds Upon Arrival—Special Entertain- ment in Their Honor. BY EDGAR ANSEL MOWRER. By Radio to The Star and the Chicago Daily News. Copyright. 1924 BERLIN, »June 17—Mary and Doug reached Berlin early today and were met by fair sized crowds of Germans and numerous Americans. They intend fo stay only a day or two, during which they will give a reception and then proceed to Scandinavia. In their honor & special perform- ance of one act of Mary's new film, “Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall" will be shown. This marks & great change. Germany was the last coun- try Lo like American films, which to- day, both “for quality and lower prices, are _driving out German films Germans at first found American films too quick for their eyes. They now find their own films too slow. Especially American comic _actors are appreciated. _Charlie Chaplin naturally is a favorite. German pro- fessors greet Charlie’s art as a new esthetic revelation. Two serious cssays have been written on him and two Ger- man dramatists have taken him as a character in their recent plays. Fatty Arbuckle and Harold Lioyd also are popular. Germans consider || American comedy the best movie humor in the world. Next in appre- oclation come the spectacle films, the last of which, “The Isle of Lost Ships,” was a tremendous success and fan longer than almost any German ms. - The most difficult are American romantic films, exactly of the t; represéntad by Mary and Doug: rermans at “first oonsidered them “kitsch”—that 1is, slushy. Now they huve come w appreciate them highly, an appreciation which doubtiess is heighteméd by the visit of the two American favorites. — Do you need efficient, industrious help?
