[ By the Associated press. | CLEVELAND, June 4.—National delegates of the American Newspaper Guild heard Robert M. Buck, vice president, assert today it should not “expect anything from the Govern- ment.” Buck told the convention, “The na- tional officers of the Guild were at no time during the past year deceived into | thinking that the newspaper code held out promised benefits for newspaper | men and women.” The Guild renounced today the Pulitzer award for journalism and took steps to set up its own award, which probably will be named in honor of Dan De Souza, Washington | newspaper man who lost his life in an auto accident last Winter while en route to Newark, N. J,, to ald striking | newspaper workers there. Dissatisfaction with the Pulitzer award came to a head last night when Heywood Broun, national president of the Guild, told the convention, “We have little respect for it any more.” BOARD TO ANNOUNCE PRINCIPAL AT LOGAN :Agreement Reported Reached by Personnel Committee—Wilson Post to Be Filled.

Baggs, 21, who disappeared yesterday. may be a temporary amnesia victim, Dr. Albert N. Baggs, 2324 Ashmead place, Washington physician, has asked po- lice to aid in searching for him. The young man had a nervous | breakdown Sunday while with his parents at their cottage at Sherwood | Forest, Dr. Baggs said. Early yester- | day afternoon. voung Baggs left Dr. Baggs at Thirteenth and H streets, saying he was going to a barber shop, and has not been seen since. The breakdown, the parents said | today at their home, probably is due partly, at least, to grief over the death of a former schoolmate--the son of & high-ranking naval officer | who was killed in an airplane crash | last December. | Dr. Baggs said his son was a great nature lover and fears he may have | wandered into the woods in Rock | Creek Park while suffering from loss | of memory. | Several years ago Baggs sustained a bullet wound in the neck when a | rifle was accidently discharged while he was climbing into & rowboat with it, and this may have contributed mi | his nervous condition. Dr. Baggs said. | The young man is 5 feet 6!, inches {tall and weighs about 135 pounds At the time he disappeared he was dressed in & light suit, green shirt and dark tie. His father, Dr. Baggs, was & major in the Army Medical Corps over- | seas during the war and is now | a consultant of the Veterans' Armin- | istration and a practicing physician here. Mrs. Baggs has long been ac- | tive in various women's organizations here. YOUNG DEMOCRATS | VOTE AGAIN TONIGHT | Paul Best and J.

The | university’s 300 graduates sat in a body. Dr. Johnson contrasted present edu- cational opportunities with those of the emancipated slaves less than 70 years ago, and declared, “The humblest indi- vidual is infinitely precious because of the immeasurable possibilities of de- velopment and power; every such indi- | vidual is deserving of the expenditure made upon him of an incalculable amount of love, not in proportion as he can pay, but in proportion as his needs require.” The college president asserted that the real proof of such devoted love in the world is not the production of pampered cripples, but of strong men and women capable of bearing the burdens of the world. “However discouraging the tasks of love may seem to be,” he continued, “the persistent devotion of a handful of pure-hearted men and women who are willing to suffer is able to bring about creative movements in the whole structure of life ARCHBISHOP CURLEY TO CONFER DEGREES Trinity College Graduates to Hear Miss Ann 8.
