KIDNAP SUSPECTS - SOUGHT IN CANADA Two Involved in Boettcher . Case Believed En Route to Dominion. By the Associated Press. DENVER, March 8—The evor- widening search for the abductors of Charles Boettcher, 2d, spread across the international line into Canada to- y. ‘Two of six persons against whom kid- naping charges have been filed in United States District Court, are be- lieved by Chief of Police Albert T. Clark of Denver to be fleeing this coun- try. They are Vern Sankey, 41, named by police as the probable leader of the gang which held the wealthy broker captive more than two weeks and then collected $60,000 ran- som for his safe release, and Gordon Elkhorn, alias Gordon Best, 33. Police said both men formerly lived in Canada and were employed by the Canadian National Railway. They were believed by officers to have started their flight from the vicinity of Sankey's ranch, 18 miles northeast of Chamber- lain, S. Dak., where Arthur Youngberg, 37, one of the six charged, was arrested. ‘The house has been identified by offi- cers, through descriptions given by Boettcher, as the place where he was held during ransom negotiations with his multi-millionaire father, Claude K. Boettcher. Friends in Canada. Clark, directing the hunt, said he be- lleved the two were heading into Can- ada to change irt) Canadian money the “hot™ $60,000 in the United States cur- rency the gang received for liberating the scion of a pioneer Colorado family 8 week ago. They were paid with $5, $10 and $20 marked notes. “I know the men we seek have friends in Canada,” Clark said. “I also have information which leads me to be- lieve they are attempting to cross the international line. They were attempt- ing to exchange the ransom money for other currency in the United States when the national bank holiday cut short their efforts.” Besides the two still at large, and Youngberg, who has waived extradition and is being returned here, these are named in charges filed by Ralph L. Carr, United States district attorney: Ruth Kohler. 39; Mrs. Vern mother of two children, and All are held in jail Sankey Carl Pearce, 36. here. Carr said the charges are among the first filed uncer a new Federal sthtute known as_the “Lindbergh law,” which allows a Federal judge virtually unlim- ited authority to impose heavy sen- tences upon conviction. Attempted Suicide. Carr added the procecution had “a good case.” It was understood a mass of evidence collected by Chief Clark as well as Federal officers who have been working secretly on the case, had been placed at his disposal. Chief Clark said young Boettcher probably would leave today by plane for the 1solated hide-out to aid Denver officers in more definitely identifying the place. ‘Youngberg, after his arrest, attempted suicice by slashing *his throat and wrists, but was treated by a physician who said he was not seriously hurt. Two groups of Denver officers made the Sankey ranch house their head- 'quarters for a cearch of that vicinity. Residents of the desolate, hilly dis- trict said Sankey had no apparent oc- cupation, though he appeared well- to-do. Although no warrant had been issued for his arrest on the charge, authorities at Regina, Sask., said Sankey had been sought there for questioning after the robbery cf the Albert street branch of the Royzal Bank of Canada in February, 1931. Chief of Police Martin J. Bur- ton of Regina, did not know Elkhorn. FLEET TURNS NORTH IN WAR MANEUVERS Pacific Coastal Defenses Thoroughly Tested as Third Day of Sea Exercises Begin.

CALIFORNIA, AT SEA IN MANEUVERS, March 8.— ‘The main defensive power of the Amer- ican Nation, 124 fighting craft, steam- ed northtard today for the third day of tactical exercises. Four great sea “battles” have been fought in the last two days, four bat- tles complete in every detail of battle action save for the actual firing of Out of these spectacular ma- naval tacticians say, will come er to the question of what degree of protection the fleet would probably afford the sea coast against attack. While each of the major engagements has been replete with thrills, from many points the fourth, that of the massed attack of destroyers and air- craft against the main battle and scout- ing fleets combined, which was staged yesterday, perhaps was the most spec- tacular, Every modern type of naval aircraft ‘was used. One of the most vividly picturesque of all naval spectacles, at least where guns are silent, is the laying of smoke screens during the high-spead maneu- vers. * DR. A. B.

But this category does mnot include hsi real profession and lifework, in which for more than 30 years he has had .a varied and vivid career as re- porter, news and feature writer on various metropolitan daily newspapers, nor his public service, nor his activities as a “joiner“—for he belongs to all Ma- sonic bodies, the Shrine, Jesters, Elks, Eagles and other clubs and societies too numerous to chronicle. Mr. Musselwhite's life has been geared to high speed. Born on a farm, early in his three score years he learned the printer’s trade. He has occupied every position on the editorial side of a newspaper from morgue boy to man- aging editor—owning, editing and pub- lishing his own daily. After outstand- ing service in news writing in Detroit, St. Louis, Chicago and way stations, from 1915 to 1928 he devoted himself to building up the Manistee dailies which he bought and consolidated,— & pioneer in the dissemination of full leased wire service. ‘Then he quit to loaf and play, but took on a lot of public service—presi- New Faces in Congress HARRY MUSSELWHITE OF MICHIGAN SEMI-PRO BALL PLAYER.

By the Assoclated Press. abroad without a secret service guard for only the second time in more ihan four years, Herbert Hoover today en- Joyed a self-conducted window shopping Jaunt down Park avenue. The ex-President was recognized by lew as he left his closely guarded hotel aj ent for his morning walk, accompenied by his youngest son, Allan, and his secretary, Lawrence Richey. Few Recognized Him. Several persons spoke to him by name, and he returned their greeting with a nod, but for the most part his high- turned collar against heavy mist and light rain afforded him the non-recog- nition he apparently desires. During the day, Richey said, Mr. Hoover intended to take care of strictly “personal business.” Several callers dropped into his apartment, among them Walter Brown, former Postmaster General, and Patrick J. Hurley, erstwhile Secretary of War. Brown arrived here late last night from the National Capital, The former President set out some- ‘what later this morning for his consti- tutional than he did yesterday. Instead of walking uptown, as he did then, he turned south and strolled down Park avenue, stopping whenever something of interest caught his eye. Plans Indefinite. He walked as far south as Thirty- sixth street, inspecting en route the Grand Central Station, which he has seen only against the background of huge crowds since he entered the high office of the presidency four years ago. Richey said Mr. Hoover was still un- decided as to when he would set out for his California home. He indicated that the ex-President desired to give a little more time to the affairs of charitable organizations in which he is interested, saying a conference with one of these groups had been scheduled for tomorrow.

Lyon Urges Leisure Be Devoted to Keeping “Torch Aglow.” No use to which our present leisure time can be put is more worthwhile than to “keep aglow the torch of drama,” Gideor: A. Lyon, associate edi- tor of The Star sald last night in addressing the annual One-act Play Tournament Dinner at the Madrillon Restaurant. The value of community drama as the country’s hope for a revival of | the stage to its former place in our | culture and importance of the one-act play in this re-birth of the American theater, were stressed by all speakers.

Peeples, and was attended by a committee of the group directors of the recent tourna- -|ment, and others. Dr. Stephen E. Kramer, assistant superintendent of schools, presided. “A sense of contribution to the main- tenance of the art of drama that is menaced by destructive rivalry . . . is the chief satisfaction that may come to the amateur player,” Mr. Lyon said. Fred E. Hand, theatrical producer for many years, said the future of the one-act play lies in the hands of com- munity drama groups. He praised the annual tourney in Washington as of splendid educational and cultural value. Helen Lackaye Speaks.
