GEORGE VAN CLEAS, Chicago special policeman, takes one last yawn in a hospital to show how he was suffering until two doctors found a new way of cur- ing his “yawns.” He started yawn- ing December 20 and couldn't stop until Drs. Albert Slepyan and Irv- ing Mishkin tickled the soles of his feet with rubber hammers. Nat- urally, he giggled—and the yawns were gone! It is estimated he yawned 20,000 times. The 48-hour yawning spell was caused, doctors explained, by “mental hysteria” over illness in the family. —A. P. Photo.

It stirred John Consigliari's sym- pathy; he took the arm of the shabby man who had entered his tavern last | night and said: | “We'll go to that restaurant across the street and buy you as much as you can eat.” Then, his heart lightened, Consig- | liari returned to his tavern, shut off | fore going home. The crash of a window pane in the | rear brought him to his feet. Sev- eral times recently he had been the victim of robbers. Snatching up his pistol he crept to the window. A form dropped softly to the floor in the darkness and headed toward the safe. Consigliari's pistol cracked sharply; the figure collapsed without a sigh. Consigliari pressed a switch, flood- ing the room with light, then gasped. The man on the floor, shot through the heart, was the hungry man, later identified as Edwin Busch, 30. 4 THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, December 25. —Business conditions in 1935 will follow closely along the lines pursued during the current year, according to Col. Leonard P. Ayres, prominent econemist and vice president of the Cleveland Trust Co. In a year end statement outlining his views of the trend in the coming year, Col. Ayres repeated many of the forecasts made a year ago dealing with 1934 and said he felt there would be little variations in the com- ing 12 months. The high spots of his forecast, enumerated in 14 principal points, follow: 1. It is not likely that we shall ex- perience uncontrolled inflation in 1934. 2. The administration will probably adopt an irregular and unplanned crystallizing of financial policy with reasonable stabilization of values. 3. Business conditions in 1934 prom- ise to be similar to those of the latter monthe of 1933. 4 Commodity refuse to rise fal ) o ices will stubbornly | or fast, and busi- “Put Your Car in Safe Hands” had the privilege of serv- we appreciate; and whose and respect: goal: and cherished asset new year and more pros- ar, B St S S S D ST b e e o e S S P e b g e A S S e e S e e 5 ORATED ¥ ¥ X X X X X X X X ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ Xx X ¥ X X %X ¥ Dlstrict 2775 * | Edwin Silton, ness activity is unlikely to expand in marked degree. 5. Probably 1934 will be another vear of depression, during which the physical volume of industrial produc- tion will not be as great in any month as it was in July of 1933, or as small as it was in March of 1933. 6. Our financial policies will prob- ably impel other nations to retalia- tions, trade restrictions and ill-will. 7. Production of durable goods is likely to remain restricted, with con- tinuing serious unemployment. 8. Expenditures for unemployment relief will be very large ‘and taxes heavier, Fluc{uations Narrow. 9. Price fluctuations in the security markets are likely to be narrow and irregular. 10. In 1934 it will probably be as difficult for the operator in the stock market to make speculative profits, o: to find safe refuge for conserving funds, as it was in the last half of 1933, - 11. The volume of privately financed building construction will be small. 12. Many lines of consumers’ goods should do well and some durable goods, such as radios, labor-saving office equipment, household equipment and agricultural implements. 13. The output of automobiles should be larger in 1934 than in the previous year. 14. Probably 1934 will be a year of much debate about money and dis- cussion of the conflicts between re- covery measures and reform measures. . Film Player to Wed.
