Aldrich Rodger, Washington and New York socialites. The puppy, described as “noticeably bowlegged,” was lost Thursday near Petersburg, Va., when the Rodgers stopped to view an overturned truck. The couple immediately wired police of the surrounding States, offering a liberal reward for return of the dog, 1n belief a traveler might have picked him up. They also have broadcast the news and advertised in news- papers. CITY NEWS IN BRIEF. TODAY.

BY the Assoclaied Press. TOPEKA, Kans,, January 11.—Gov. | Alf M. Landon of Kansas rolled up | his sleeves today and took personal | charge of the business of moving | back into private life. The two-term Governor, whose rec- | ord brought him national recognition | and the 1936 Republican presidential | nomination, will turn over his office | and the executive residence to Wal- ter A. Huxman, his Democratic suc- cessor. Landon will return to the inde- pendent oil business he followed be- fore his entrance into politics. He left unanswered questions as to his | plans as titular head of the Repub- lican party. With plans already completed for construction of a Colonial-type sub- urban home on a 160-acre tract near here, Landon began negotiations for | a downtown office, from which he | will carry on his oil and real estate operations. A cold wave prevented him from testing the flow of his newest pro- ducing oil well in the “poor man’s fleld” of Kansas. The well was brought in a week ago with the re- tiring Governor personally in charge of the drilling crew. After Landon’s final address as Governor he and his family will leave the executive mansion to reside at the home of Mrs. S. E. Cobb, mother of Mrs. Landon, until their suburban | place is ready. He will retain his property at In- dependence, Kans., his previous resi- dence, for the time being. THREE ROBBED HERE; Woman—Other Victims Report. to police yesterday.

Tsll, prematurely baldish James Roosevelt, whom Candidate F. D. R. called “My Little Boy Jimmy” in eampaign train speeches back in 1932, follows a well-beaten track by coming to the White House as his father's “right-hand man.” John Quincy Adams had his son, John Quincy Adams, jr., as secretary. Andrew Jackson brought with him from Tennessee his wife’s nephew, Andrew Jackson Donelson, whom he had reared from boyhood virtually as s son. Except for a brief time when Donelson was banned because of & clash with Peggy Eaton, White House appointment and entertainment de- tails passed through his hands. An- other of Mrs. Jackson’s nephews, who was so completely adopted he even took the name, Andrew Jackson, also worked at the White House much of administration.
