The prisoner, Edward Lee Thompson, alias Ed L. Collin of Atlanta, Ga., was taken into custody at Union Sta- tion Thursday afternoon with his wife, Mrs. Catherine Thompson. A report made to Montgomery, Ala.. authorities by Lieut. Col. T. Oyama of the Japanese Army to the effect he had been robbed of $800 by three men while en route by train to' New Orleans pre- cipitated the search which resulted in Thompson’s arrest. “Taken” With “Cold” Deck, ‘The debonair Thompson reclined in a chair at police headquarters yester- and smilingly told his captors, they said, that “the colonel had been ‘taken'—but with a ‘cold’ deck. Col. Oyama’s story was that three men had seized him when he refused to play carcs with them and took eight $100 bills from his wallet and fled. Thompson laughed when detectives told him Col. Oyama's version of the affair. He readily admitted that the officer had been “trimmed” in a card | game and told a colorful story of how, | in orcer to get the colonel interested, he was forced to engage an interpreter, detectives said. “We played cards for nearly two hours while the train sped toward New Orleans,” the amicable Thompson was reported to have told detectives. “I had to teach him the game before we could play.” . Marked carcs that were said te have been used, as well as some queerly acting dice, are held at headquarters as evidence, though the Japanese victim | apparently was not inltiated with the | cubes. | Suspect “Spotted” Police. Detective Arthur Fihelly, who ar- rested Thompson ,admitted it was all very clever and adced that it was all because Thompson was clever that he found himself in the hands of the law. “If Thompson's knowledge of how police work had not been lacking he would never have been arrested,” Fihelly explained. “He knew we were on ‘the make’ and knew we had no description of him— all we knew was he might arrive here So we hac to play the old game of what we call ‘making’ a suspect. You see your man is just as anxious to spot the police as the police are to spot him. And we just waited for him to spot. us—and he did." Pihelly said Thompson had a police record and that Thompson had told him he had been playing his game for nearly | six years. ‘Thompson, Fihelly sai¢, de- clared that he had been on most every train in the country playing the game. He will be held while police further in- vestigate his activities.

By the Associated Press PROVIDENCE, R. I, September 27. ~—The paramount function of the mod- ern college is to provide a liberal edu- cation, valuable in work and leisure alike, rather than a merely professional training, Charles Evans Hughes, Chief Justice of the United States, said today in an address at the centenary celebra- tion of Rhode Island Alpha, Phi Beta Kappa. He spoke at Brown University, of which he is an alumnus. Characterizing a liberal education as “a never ending pursuit” for which college can merely give a beginning, stimulus and direction, Mr. Hughes as- serted it was the duty and privilege of the Phi Beta Kappa Society, with its high traditions of intellecual integrity, to keep aloft the banner of scholarship in the face of indifference and misun- | derstanding of the proper functions of the college. = In order to preserve its prestige and continue to render valuable service, Phi Beta Kappa must remain an associa- tion of a relatively small number of men and women “of scholarly attain- ments who have proved their merit ac- cording to the accepted standards of co]lld(‘ge discipline,” the Chief Justice said. in Montgomery County, to open the area wth.
