Dr. Huntington said ather subconscious natural selec- tion that had mated the fathersand mothers of the high ranking stu- dents if exercised consciously would undoubtedly improve the inborn qualities of future generations. that the must have good health, a spirit of adventure, energy, religion and moral fervor, he said in explaining | the reasons for the qualities he |ascribed to their descendants. | In further support of his theory. he said that professors’ sons ranked second and those of ministers third. He explained this by saying of better wives than they deserv: T nto types. the speaker turally selects them said, and his wife Dr. that | professors are selected on the basis intellectnal ability and a rigid moral code and that “ministers get minister's calling brings him | contact with women of high | he from | [ Through the Static | Volume was excellent last evening, ! but static was quite troublesome. It ties than it did the night before. There was some fading and consid- {erable local interference. | DI i | WEEI, Boston stations, were break- {ing all records for volume. It is not often that we hear those stations | coming through with such volume as | was evident last evening. WNAC was | put out of the running in a short time, when WCAE, Pittsburgh, start- Eed up, causing a heterodyne whistle {to overshadow the Boston broad- caster. That heferodyne; while not loud, gave WNAC the sound of a {run-down, jerky phonograph, i pleasant thing to listen to, you will agree, .. We listened to many howls, shrieks and squeals, but we couldn’t | find any of them in the program, so we decided several things. Intersta- | tion interference was terrific, was }one of the things we decided. . .0 ! We tuned in CNRO, Ottawa, which | presented one of the most interest- {ing programs on the air, of which | there wasn't so very many. The an- {nual Sleigh Ride was taking place {and we listened to a great deal of | ollity and laughter and singing and { music. These sleigh rides take place |once a year and entertainment is | provided at a fast and furious rate. lPl‘opla write in and ask to have the ! party call at their homes, which is | the signal for the announcer to ded- |icate a number to them| The station | came through extremely loud, al- {though WLW, on one side, and | WIR-WCX on the other made it a rather tight squeeze at times. PR There's only one fault we have to find with the Winter Garden dance orchestra at WJAX, Jacksonville. It is too ambitious. Last night we lis- tened to “Swamp Blues” plaved |about 10 times straight. Now that's too much. A few times is all right, but 10—monotonous. ¢ o0 | ‘The Capitol Theater program. | trom WTIC, came through in good | shape, although we didn't care for | the show, in spite of the fact that {Jim Clancy managed to keep us in- Iterested in his descriptions. The | show consisted of several skits and {a minimum of music,but we couldn’t get interested in the acts at all, for some reason or other. We'll say this tmuch, the last one was terrible. A lot of cutting up and lots of noise |from what was supposed to be a | comedy patter team. i o . We hunted around but we ‘couldn't find a great deal of inter- ‘»Atmg material.

Ac- | cording to her version the presi- |dent’s assassin did not shout what !the school books say he did.

Heghad cluded capture for more than 1§ hours, Battle Creek, Mich., Feb. 10 (UP) —Intensive search was made today for a youth who kidnaped five-year- old Helen Gillett and was preparing, apparently, to murder her with a butcher knife when discovered by her father. | The man hunt started when Wal- ton Gillett, local factory worker, re- ported to police that Lester Daniels, 21, seized his. daughter, while she was at play and took her to & shack whgre he held her prisoner. Gillett said he went in search of the child when she failed to answer | his calls for supper late yesterday. |He went to the rear of his home, he told police, and when he ap- proached the shack at the alley, he heard his daughter screaming. The door was fastened from the inside, he said, and he broke it open. When: he did so, he faced the startled youth, who was holding & long butcher knife between his teeth to hold the | | | 1nnd using his hands child. Gillett said Daniel escaped after threatening to kill him with the | knife. Helen’s clothing had been |torn from her body and her arms | were severely bruised. Otherwise, | she was uninjured. 7 | Chief of Police Hugh Gordon, iafter {investigating Gillett's story, |said he believed another murder |similar to the Hickman and Hotel- ling crimes was prevented by the timely arrival of the girl's father. He sald neither energy nor expense iwould be spared in the effort to | capture Daniels. “" HANDBALL MATCHES Warner Brothers of Meriden Go Into Action Against Mag and Dressel Here Tonight.
