THE 8&U \D\Y BARRU[[ WEEPING REACHES NEW YORK Says He Is Not Sure He Can Resume Show Work—Scores of Friends Greet Him. By the Associated Press. NEW TORK, October streaming from his eyes, E came back today to Broadway, scene of both his rise and fall. On the train that brought him from Atlanta Penitentiary, where he had juq completed the minimum part of vear’s sentence for perjury, the pro- @ucer had been unablo to iell what his feeling about re-entering his for- mer haunts was. “How do you feel back to Broadway?" him. “1 really don’t know,” he replied, with a vague gesture of passing one | hand across his eyes. “I haven't| grasped it yet. I'm still back there in || Atlanta. T haven't waked up.” Weeps on Arrival. J But when the train came into the | Pennsylvania Station and Carroll was | greeted by scores of cheering friends, among them many actre: s who taken part in his productions and who kissed him_fervently, the theatrical | man gave definite evidence of his emo- | tion: | He stumbled to the platform weeping | < "Oh, I'm so glad | ad to be back.” | During the last stage of his train | journey Carroll told newspaper men | that he was not sure that he could re- sume his theatrical work, but if it | turned out he could he would stick to his familiar brand of girl and music revue and would not be turned by his experience to more serious types of | drama. about getting a reporter asked Bears No Grudges. Carroll said he held no animosity to- ward any of the persons connected with his conviction. He spoke of Joyce | he show girl who he told a had not sat in a tub at a party he gave and who later testified that she had sat there, as “merely one who played her part in a comedy pf errors.” Carroll answered all questions put to him by reports on the train, evad- ing a direct reply to only one. There had been some comment about terms of his parole, which forbid him to drink any liquer during the remainder of his term, and the rcnorter asked #Are you on the wagon? “I am on probation,” he replied, and turned the conversation to other mat- ters. CLERK HIT ON HEAD, GOES BACK TO WORK Robber Strikes Man With Hammer Necessitating Three Stitches. $35 Is Stolen. Undaunted by an encounter with a negro bandit who knocked him un- conscious with the head of a hammer and then fled with $35 from the cash register early last night, B. F. Maffle, 67 years old, a clerk at the shop of Lester, 126 G street, had three stitches taken in his head and was back to work within an hour. Maffle was alone in the store when the bandit entered and asked to see some overalls. After inspecting one pair he requested to see a different size, and when the clerk turned to get them, he was knocked unconscious. ‘When he regained consciousness he ‘was lying behind the counter and the contents of the cash register, amount- ing to $35, was gone. The man left the hammer head behind him. ‘The injured clerk telephoned police of No. 6 precinct, who took him to Casualty Hospital. Dr. Leon S. Gor- don took three stitches to close a gash in his head and he returned to the store. FUEL EXPERTS TO MEET.

They will not even be asked to sign a guest book. The Leland model home, just as the other three demonstration houses erected this year under the auspices of The Star and in the interest of the building of better and more beautiful d of more extensive home ip, has been bullt according to strict specifications drawn by the Home Owners' Institute and under the supervision of The Star model homes committee. Capt. H. C. Whitehurst. Assistant Engineer Commissioner of the District of Columbia, is chairman of this committee, and other members are Robert F. Beresford, member of the local chapter of the American In- stitute of Architects: Rufus S. Lusk, president of the Operative Builder: Association, and John F. Maury, past president of the Washington Real Es. tate Board, all of whom served on the committee as individuals and not as officials. Started Four Months Ago. Ground for the Leland model home was broken about four months ago, and since that time the house has pro- gressed step by step with special care taken to insure proper construction of each phase. During the past week the house has been a busy scene, as a large corps of finishers, decorators and landscape workers added the final touches, bringing out the beauty of the house and its setting. As a definite illustration of the care- ful planning of a house in relation to its setting, this house was placed near the center of its grounds, which have a frontage of 90 feet on Elm street and of 83 feet on Leland street, in a manner preserving the numerous ever- green and dogwood trees native to the soil there and utilizing them in the general landscape scheme. ‘The exterior walls of the house are of stueco, which was applied in three full coats to a metal lath base over the building walls, and the dark- hom The Home Ow: ton builders, esting stonework forming the en- trance arch, and the slate shingles form a strikingly pleasing color scheme against the light background of the stucco.

It was reported that the four kid- napped persons are being held for ransom. Those kidnapped were: Mr. and Mrs. Yves Steeg, nephew and niece of the resident general, and M and Mrs. Jean Maillet, who are di tantly related to him. It is believed they have been carried into the moun- tains. Auto Shot-Riddled. The Steeg and Maillet couples had been motoring along the foot of the Atlas Range on a hunting trip. Their automobile, bullet-riddled, was recov- ered. Two hunting dogs were found dead in the bottom of the automobile, their throats slit. This was consid- ered evidence of a hard-fought bat- tle, and it caused consternation in the French population of Morocco, which has just recovered from thez shock of the brutal murder of three members of the Arnaud family in the same territory three weeks ago. Never since the days of 1925, when Abd-el-Krim was hammering at the gates of Fez, has the French popula- tion been so wrought up by the me ace of Moorish depredations. Heavy reinforcements are being brought from the south from their garrisons at Casablanca. The kidnapping occurred between Kasba Tadla and Kasba Beninellal, territory which has never acknowl- edged the French protectorate, Trail Is Lost.
