LEGIONN THE CITY'S OLDEST DIAMOND HOUSE--ESTABLISHED 1§49 CASTELBERG'S PANTACES TALK TOLD BY WITHESS Former Press Agent Ex- plains Alleged Effort to Color Testimony. By the Associated Press. LOS ANGELES, October 11.—Testi- mony from former employes of Alex- ander Pantages, multimillionaire theater magnate, was_expected by the State today to corroborate its allegation that the vaudeville man, being tried on a statutory charge preferred by 17-year- old Eunice Pringle, ordered his associ- ates to color their testimony in his favor, ‘William Jobelman, former Pantages man, who testified yesterday that Pan- tages had “suggested” that he shape his testimony to aid his employer, re- mained to be cross-examined by the defense. He is to be followed by Tillie Russo, usherette; Roy Keene, former assistant theater manager, and C. C. Harden, employed in various capacities by Pantages. Questioned by District Attorney Buron Fitz, Jobelman testified that he was attracted to the door of his office on the afternoon of August 9 by screams. Directly opposite his offices, on the mezzanine floor of the Pantages theater building, he said, he saw the Pringle girl struggling with Pantages. ‘The day following the alleged attack, Jobelman said, he and Pantages had a conversation in the theater man’s office and he asked Pantages what had hap- pened on the day previous. Pantages, the witness said, told him that he was coming down to Jobelman's office to at- tend to a business matter. The young dancer, who was attempting to book a skit on his circuit, followed, and when he found Jobelman out he took the girl into the little room across the way to discuss the booking. Almost immedi- ately, the witness said Pantages told him, 'the girl began to scream. “Did he say anything about you hav- ing been in that little room before he and Eunice went in?” asked Fitts. “Yes—he told me I had come from the room as he and Eunice were coming downstairs and had e to my own room,” replied the wf:x:leu y "fis nlmnner of fact, did you?” “No, sir.” “Did Pantages say anything to you about how long you were supposed to know he and Eunice Pringle were in that room?” continued Fitts. “He said he was in the room a very few minutes before she began to scream and tear his tle,” said Jobélman. “As a matter of fact, you don't know how long he and the girl were in the room?"” “No, sir.” Under cross examination by defense attorneys Jobelman admitted that he had been “pretty badly scared” by the district attorney because he had “told an untruth” in his original story of the affair. He also testified that when he saw the Pringle girl in the doorway of 1845 4th St. N. E.

The cross-examination had but fairly started when court was adjourned and the witness was told to return for further questioning today. The only other witness was W. C. Hale, who began his testimony Wednes- day. Hale's testimony aroused bitter argument between opposition attorneys, the prosecution objecting to the efforts of the defense to get before the jury the fact that Hale was indicted in 1925 im San Antonio, Tex., on theft charges. Dispatches from Tevas rajd Hale w- not wanted there and that charges 2eld against him 1n 1920 naa been wismissed in 1927. - Cih - More than a ton of amber was found in Lithuania in the last 12 months.
