Search for Missing Californian Loads to Unmarked Grave | in Mexico. - By the Associated Préss. YUMA, Ariz, January 29.—The mys- terious death of W. Paul Loveland, wealthy Pasadena, Calif., architect and sportsman, whose body was found in an unmarked grave by the side of a Mexi- can irrigation canal, was investigated today by police authorities of Arizona and Mexico. Loveland’s body was found and re- moved yesterday from its makeshift burial place near Cuervos, Mexico, 24 miles south of the international line, and identified by Sheriff J. C. Hunter and Chief of Police Henry Levy of Yuma. Loveland had been missing since shortly after Christmas. Mexicans said they found the body four days ago in an irrigation canal near Cuervos and buried it. Loveland left during the Christmas holidays for a fishing trip. He registered at an automobile camp here, where he ‘was known to attendants. The latter in- formed Mrs. Loveland they saw her husband depart from the camp on foot ‘with two companions. The attendants did not remember seeing any of the trio again. CUSTOM AGENTS’ NOSES ARE CALLED IN QUESTION Judge Rejects Olfactory Organs of Officers in “Liquor” Seizure Unless “Supported.” By the Associated Press. 1 JACKSONVILLE, Fla, January 29| —A custom agent’s nose s not even | as as the average witness in a liquor case in Federal Judge Lake Jones’ court. In point of fact, it is no good at all unless there is corroborative testimony. ‘The point came up yesterday in the trial of A. J. Johnson, alias A. J. Miller, of Daytona Beach, and John P. Poland and Samuel Ellis, alias John McDon- ald, charged with transporting liquor. Customs agents testified they seized the men’s automobiles after they smelled liquor as the cars passed on the high- way. Judge Jones dismissed the cases. " VERDICT IS REVERSED. NEW ORLEANS, La, January 29 (#)—The Fifth United States Circuit Court of Appeals yesterday reversed the decision of the lower court of Missis- sippl in finding four men guilty of charge of conspiracy to intimidate s Government witness in a liquor case. The defendants are Ellerson Cofer, Lee Cofer, Floyd Carr and Fred Ham- {lton, implicated in the slaying from ambush of James H. Pruitt. The case was reversed on the con- tention of the defense that evidence was obtained illegally. Major “Chain” Features TONIGHT. 7:00—“Amos ’n’ Andy,” black- face comedians — WRC and N. B.

BY MARTIN CODEL. Add to the “kissograph” moves the “supersensitive _multiple electrical stethoscope,” by which the radio impresarios now propose to find out what people like and do not like on the radio. Since fan mail response is no longer considered a fair index to the popu- larity of broadcast programs, it is pro- posed to determine audience reaction to various types of programs by measuring | the heart actions of a group of listeners as they assemble in the New York studios of the Columbia Broadcasting System the evening of February 6. ‘This being an era ot devious inquiry into matters psychological, the claims made for the supersensitive stetho- scope are interesting. The device .is described simply as “a new piece of medical apparatus, to be found only in the most modernly equipped hospitals.” The tests, it is stated, will be con- ducted by research scientists of the ‘Western Electric Co. on “a committee of outstanding figures in all walks of life” Among those who will undergo them are Prof. Robert S. Woodworth, Columbia University psychologist; Hey- wood Broun, newspaper writer; Rev. Thomas Wepley, preacher; Eva Le Gal- lienne, actress; Claudette Colbert, ac- l!reas, and Guy Lombardo, orchestra leader. of the WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 29, 1930. “After the -normal heart action of each has been recorded.” says a state- ment from the Columbia Broadcasting System, “they will be ‘exposed’ to vari- ous types of programs, ranging from the CYOOH;I’I' of ‘brl'uel' wnl::am !hA!l laying of a symphony orcl Ta. eart action reading will be made of man may long for the beauties of Beethoven and Bach. “In short,” the sclentists claim, “many of the radio audience do not know what they want, while in the cases of some others their positions in life may force them to express a prefer- ence at variance with dictates of Ever Alert their own minds as faithfully indicated by heart reactions.” B9 " & device wh - EREssrn e s i Whateverthe results of this experl- | {0%e! ment, they are bound to tax the credul- ity of a great mass of radio listeners who insist they know their own pro- gram preferences and predilections, In any case, the story of radio tests by heart-beat measurements is bound to attract a lot of attention and interest.
