BALLSTON YOUTH. ORATORY FINALIST First of Five Virginia Con- { -testants Is Chosen at Falls Church. The first of five Virginia finalists in the Sixth Nationial Oratorical Contest was chosen at Falls Church last night, when Jerry Schutz, 16-year-cld senior of the Washington-Lee High School of Ballston, won the decision in the initial group meeting in that State, Miss Ann E. Crimmins of the Villa Maria Acad- emy of We:t Falls Church won second place and was designated alternate to Schutz. Virginia’s second finalist will be chosen at Leesburg tonight, when, at 8 o'clock, four girls and one boy offer their forensic bids for the consideration of three judges. Tonight's Contestants. In the order in which they will speak, and their respective subjects, tonight's| contestants are: Miss Sarah Frances Lefferts of th Ieesburg High School, on “Origins of the Constitution.” Miss Maxine Hazel Barton of Round Hill High School, on “The Origin of the Constitution.” Thomas Edward Taylor of the Lin-/| coln High School, on “The Develop- ment of the Constitution.” Miss Clara Conard of the Hillsboro Junior High School, on “Origin of Our Constitution.” Miss Maxine Compher of the Water- ford High School, on “Origin of the| Constitution.” L. Emerick, superintendent of Loudoun County Schools, will preside, while the judges will be Rev. Sanford L. Rotter of The Plains; Dr. Fred Goch- nauer of Upperville, and Dr. Harold | Golder, professor of English at Amer- | ican University. Music for the program | will be furnished by Mrs. Arthur Jen- | kins, vocalist, and Mrs. John R. Clemens, pianist. Miss LefTbrts is the 16-year-old daugh- ter of Rev. and Mrs. Horace H. Lefferts of Leesburg: Miss Bar#®n is the 17-year- old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward H. Barton of Bluemont, and Miss Com- pher is 15 years old, and the daughter of ‘Mr. and Mrs. R. O. Compher of Waterford,. Edward Taylor is 17, and the son of Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Taylor of Lincoln. Miss Conard., one of the last contestants to be chosen by her school, is 15 years old. and the daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. George Conard of Hillsboro. She does not expect to be graduated from high school until 1932, as this is only her first year of the high school course. Commends Location. Harry M. Keyser, secretary of the Washington Railway & Electric Co., was chairman of last night's meeting at Falls Church. Commenting upon the contest in Virginia, he said that no more appropriate location for the dis- cussion of the Constitution could be chosen than the Northern part of the State, in which are situated Mount Vernon, home of the first President under_that Constitution, and Gunston Hall, home of George Mason, author of the document’s Bill of Rights. He char- 2cterized the teaching of the Constitu- tion in secondary schools as “one of the portant features in education Following a brief recitation of the rulss under which the contest was to h» staged, Mr. Keyser presented Miss Cupp as the first orator of the inter- &chool phase of the contest in Virginia. Miss Cupp delivered her speech on The Citizen: His Privileges and Duties Under the * Constitution,” in short, snappy phrases that were punctuated by pauses which broke what might have been verbal racing and which made her delivery interesting and pleasant. She used ne gesture of hands, but she ac- complished all the expression they might bave given her by turning her; head, and at times her body, to face the various sections of the hall so that each member of the audience felt he was being spoken “to” rather than talked “at.” She used 9 minutes and 25 seconds of her allotted 10 minutes. Schutz was the next orator to take the program, and in presenting his for- ensic bid in his speech on “The Con- stitution: a Guarantee of the Liberty of the Individual,” he impressed his listeners with the pleasantness of his voice and with the evidence of reserve power which it posssses, As he spoke last night he presented himself as an orator not given to animation or out- ward display of fervor, but one who, for all his apparent quiet, was capable of registering expression with a turn or two of inflection. For one thing, Schut: was “fitting himself to his auditoriu; and when he goes into the Virginia finals in the larger Washington-Lee High School auditorium he very prob- ably will uncork some of the natural fire which placed him in last night's gnee]ts through his victory in his school als. Miss Crimmins, winner of second honors, was the third speaker on the rogram. Her speech on “The Develop- ment of the Constitution” was a philo- sophical sort of discussion and was highly interesting. This girl of the Villa Maria Academy of West Falls Church was almost boyish in her voice SPECIAL NOTICES.

Speaks Briefly. Elliott came through with the briefest speech on the program and one which stamped him—14-year-old sephomore— as a contender of whom future Vir- ginia orators had better be wary. He spoke only five minutes on “A Citizen: His Privilef and Duties under the Constitution,” and, although it is true he was nervous in his first public | pearance last night, he showed him: man enough for all his youth to carry on to make way for his future efforts in the contest. The meeting weas opened by Miss| Margaret Williamson, who sang a solo. | Music again played its part in the meet | when the judges were writing their | ballots, for then Miss Margaret Ben- singer, a student at the Washington- Lee High Schdol, played a medley of popular songs on the piano.

The chairman refused to “tease” by holding the audience in suspense, but shouted the victor's name almost the moment it was handed to him—and so he won new friends. s Spanish Novelist Released.

BOMBMAKER GIVES EMPLOYER'S NAME Chicago Police Uncover First Clue to Long List of Un- solved Blasts. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, April 9.—The first clue to Chicago’s long list of unsolved bomb- ings was given police today by Joseph Cero, confessed maker and planter of gunpowder and dynamite “pineapples.” Cero told police he had bombed seven plages—fruit stores, grocery stores and restaurants mostly operated by Chicago Italians. He named Peter Fioretta as his employer and said he also did “an independent business.” Pay ranged from $25 to $150 a “job,” Cero said. More than 100 bombings were writ- ten into police records last year, in- cluding the bombing of the homes of United States Senator Charles S. Deneen |and former Police Chief Charles Fitz- morris, and none of them has been solved. With the arrest of Cero, how- ever, police believed they had a defi- nite lead on many of the bomb attacks of past months. Fioretta, police said, is the chief lieu- tenant of Joseph Aiello, one of the brothers whose names invarlably are mentioned whenever there is an out- break of gang violence. Cero also named Louis Tufano as his employer for one bombing. Tufano was arrested.

Forces from Gen. Cardenas also were reported to be heading toward Pulpeto Pass, through which Escobar's rebels were expected to enter Sonora. Another obstacle to the apparent rebel consolidation move is the federal g:rrhan at Naco, Sonora, on the Arizona rder east of here. Camping Near Naco. ?Less than 1,200 loyal federa’s under Gen. Lucas Gonzalez have held Naco fortifications against repeated attacks by the rebel Gen. Fausto Topete. The latter made an intense effort to take the garrison by storm last Saturday but was forced to give up. His troops, said to number more than 2,000 remain encamped a short distance south of Naco. Federal possession of Naco constitutes a foothold which the federal forces might use as a base to the rear of the rebel army in the event that the revo- lutionaries meet Calles forces in South- ern Sonora. The principal rebel army on the West Coast is at San Blas, Sinaloa. The Calles forces yesterday were said to be in the vicinity of Culiacan. Rebel announcements at Nogales rebel headquarters said that Escobar would launch a southward drive down the West Coast.

NACO PROBLEM FOR REBELS. Attack Without Firing Into U. S. Per- plexes Topete. NACO, Ariz, April 9 (#).—How to effectively attack the federal garrison at Naco, Sonora, without firing into American territory was the problem of the rebel forces of Gen. Fausto Topete south of here today. The situation held many possibilities for the rebels. If Topete's army should fire into American territory again, re- peating the occurrences of the last few days, it would be almost certain to draw a shower of lead from 18 American fighting planes and other United States Army forces along the border. Orders issued to the American avi- atorsito shoot down any Mexican plane to prevent gunfire into Arizona had a cooling effect on border hostilities yes- ;'e;dny. Not a shot was fired by either e Topefe’s 2,000 or more rebels might await the arrival of the army of Gen. J. Gonzalo Escobar, which is reported on the way to Sonora from Chihuahua, but additional numbers would not lessen the danger of drawing American fire in*the event of an attack. ‘The rebel forces could withdraw to the south, joining the army of Gens. Ramon F. Iturbe, Roberto Cruz and Francisco R. Manzo at San Blas, Sonora, but the federals in the Naco garrison might be able to extend their control over a large border area if left un- opposed.
