Les Vegas, Nev., June 12 (#— Charley Harmon, attorney for Leon- ard Rip Rhinelander, son of a well known New York family, disclosed early today that he had prepared & divorce complaint which young Rhinclander plans to file within the next two weeks against Alice Jones Rhinelander, daughter of a New Rochelle, New York, negro. Harmon, who is district attorney here, said Rhinelander had lived 18 Las Vegas and at a nearby moun- tain resort since January 1, under an assumed name. He had succes-s fully hidden his identity by a mous- tache and a gain of 21 pounds In weight since coming to Nevada. Admits True Name Rhinelander reluctantly admitted his true name when confronted with news service pictures of him- self. He explained that - he had sought to avoid publicity while es- tablishing the six. months residence necessary to file a divorce action in this state, Under the name of Lou Russell, Harmon admitted, his client had re- sided at the-Nevada hotel and in a cabin at the Charleston mountain resort, 20 miles north of Las Vegas. He also had operated in real estate, through which the attormey, and others who knew Rhinelander as Russell, said the young man had made a considerable income. Cruelty To Be Claim Cruelty, based on the “humilia- tion my wife has caused me by her Harmon stated, would bde the basis of the divorce complaint, which will be filed in the Las Vegas district court. The disclosure of Rhinelander's marriage several years ago to the daughter of the New Rochelle hack driver was followed by their enfore- ed separation by his socially prom- inent family. A subsequent suit for the annulment of the marriage was denied and the young couple per- manently separated. Last March, the proposed filing ol @ separation suit by Mrs. Rhineland- er in New York was indefinitely postponed as the announced result of Rhinelander increasing her sep- arate maintenance allowance to $400 (Continued on Page 10) CAUGHT WITH LIQUOR BY TRAFFIC OFFIGER Sebastian Gerbase Arrest- ed by Doty After Short Chase Bebastian Gerbase, 22, of 104 Belmont strect, was arrested at Main and Lee streets shortly after 7 o'clock this morning by Motorcycle Ofticer David Doty on charges eof transporting liquor by means of a motor vehicle, and refusing to stop for an officer, but in police court only the former charge was pre. ferfed and a plea of not guilty was entered by Judge W. F. Mangan, defense counsel. A continuance un- til Monday was ordered in $500 bonds. Judge Mangan, appreciating that Monday morning dockets arc heavy as a rule, told the court the case would not take much time. Gerbase, according to the polic was driving a touring car which wi suspected of being a rum runner and Officer Doty. having the r.gistration number in mind, ordered him to stop, intending to search the car. Gerbase did not obey but the officer caught him- after & brief chase ahd found two 5-gallon cans of alcohel in the car. Gerbase has no record, the police say. Anthony Vidutis,” 20, of 46§ Church street, pleaded not guilty to the chargg of transporting liquor by means of a motor vehicle, and the case was continued for one week in $2.000 bonds.

Details, Washington, June 12 (®— Selection of a ‘“pregressive” * candidate for president and the formation of an active progres- sive party waa advocated in the senate today by S8mith W. Brookhart of Iowa, who stump- ed the west for Herbert Hoover, unless, the export debenture - proposition w: approved by the administration, either as a part of the pending farm relief, or tariff bills. The suggestion that the debenture plan ultimately might be attached to the tariff meas- ure has been advanced by a number of other senators and is known. to have much sympathy among house democratic leud- ers. The Jowan took the senate floor shortly after it convened at noon and at about the hour that the farm relief bill formally was retdrned to the house as a result of the senate’s refusal to approve the measure with the debenture eliminated. The repre- sentatives officially ~were advised that the senate had voted 46 to 43 to insist upon incorporation of the proposition. In the house the mea- sure was placed on the speaker's teble to await action, probably to- morrow. Urges Fight to Finish Brookhart ripped into the admin- istration forces as soon as the sen- ate met, and insisted the time had arrived for a fight to the ®inish on the debenture plan. “In order to make sure that thfs be possible,” he said, ““we should at once organize to put up a progres- sive candldate in.every congressional district and for senator in every state, who will fight for this pro- gram. And if the bill should be ve- toed, we should follow this with a progressive candidate for president.” (Continued on Page 10) EISENBERG AWARDED HARVARD BOOK PRIZE Selected by Principal for High Marks and Character Announcement was made today at New Britain high school that the Harvard book prize, given by the Harvard club of New Britain, has been awarded to Sidney Edwin Eisenberg, son of Mr. and Mrs. Julius Eisenberg of 73 Mason drive.

Di Battista, 25 years old, known under the sobriquet of “the cow- boy,” is accused of shooting Sam- uel Kamaroft to death on the night of April 1 during the course of an attempted holdup at Kamaroff's gro- cery store on Jefferson street. The slayer was chased out of the store by Kamaroff's wife, and is said to have later turned over his revolver to Arthur J. Crapulli, a friend, who ultimately threw the gun into the Connecticut river. A gun has been recovered from the river and Mrs. Kamaroff and Crapulli were wit- nesses before the grand jury. Cra- pulli has been held in jail on a charge of being an accessory after the fact. Di Battista when arrested is said to have made a full confes- sion to the police. He is represent- ed by Public Defender John P. For- ward. Attorney Benedict M.

She austained a deep scalp wound believed to have been caused by a revolver butt wielded against her head. ed to the scene in a vain attempt to locate the trio, Schaufer told police that he had just driven through the New Hamp- shire town when the three stepped | into the middle of the road and stopped him at gunpoint. Under threat, he revealed his destination and the boys jumped in and an- nounced they would accompany him. of Murder During the ride, Schaufer said one of them bragged about having “killed a guy,” and promised a like fate to him should he communicate with police. 8o convincing was the warning that although it was Mon- day evening when they left Schau- fer's car, it was not until yesterday noon that he mustered sufficient courage to report wRat he knew. Rokas was regarded by authori- ties as the likely “brains” of the gang, despite his youthfulness. In October, 1928, he shot and killed Adam Goodvitch, who with a third boy had participated in a series of robberies with him. In an attempt to make Goodvitch’s death appear a suicide, police said that Rokas placed the pistol with which the crime had been committed near the lad’s outstretched hand.
