He was discovered by a nurse in the basement of the Athens General Music Convention Disturbed by Assertion Americans Dislike Own Tongue Americans dislike their native language to say nothing about native artists. The harmonious surface of today's sessions of the fifth annual convention, State Federation of Music Clubs was badly disturbed today with this declaration of Miss T. G. Ritchie of Freno made during a forum conducted by Mrs. Lucile Mairsth of Redlands at the Temple theater. Miss Ritchie's statement came in response to a query of Mrs. Mairsth's in which she asked why California artists receive so few professional engagements. The Federation also heard jazz music called a "social disease" by J. V. Brettwiser, A. N. Ph. D., ot the department of education of Berkley. "When the people of the United States catch up with emotion as they do with intellect, the correct sense of musical balance will be restored and maintained, and jazz will disappear." Jazz causes mental and physical deterioration," he said. Professor Brettwiser said that he spoke as a student of psychology and not as a musician. He told of his experiments with 800 students at the state university during the past six months and of the marked mental and spiritual deterioration under the continued influence of jazz. At the hoon luncheon in St. Ann's Inn speakers included various leaders in the music ford of the state.

Mitchell and First Vice President Clarence Gustlin. Telegrams were received from Mrs. John F. Lyons, national president; Mrs. Mary F. Sims, president of the Million Dollar New York Mail Robber Flees From Hospital (By International News Service) ATHENS, Ga., April 5.—Gerald Chapman, million dollar New York mail robber, early today made his third escape in ten days. He was discovered by a nurse in the basement of the Athens General Hospital where he had hidden himself after escaping from his guarded room on the second floor Wednesday night. Another nurse fainted and the desperado made his third getaway. He was suffering from serious wounds in the hip, inflicted when he was captured in a running gun fight after his first flight from the Atlanta penitentiary last week. Miss Scott, nurse at the hospital, became alarmed by noises in the basement. She notified Deputy Warden Bishop, a guard over another federal prisoner, and the two went to the basement. When it was discovered Chapman was there, the nurse became hysterical and in the confusion Chapman made his third getaway. Seated in an invalid's chair in the basement, his face pale with pain, Chapman staggered past hysterical attendants and the guard and made his way once more into the open. It was shortly after 2:30 a.m. that the nurse, making her rounds, heard a noise in the basement room. With the memories of the desperado's second break for liberty fresh in mind, the girl called H. M. Bishop, special deputy warden, who had been guard over Chapman. Bishop took an iron poker and went with the girl into the basement. They could see Chapman in a corner. Bishop advanced to the chair. Chapman appeared to offer no resistance. His face was deathly. A stubble of board had grown on his face since his flight 20 hours before. He was so weak the guard had to help him on with his shoes. In the mean time another nurse had joined Miss Scott and Bishop. One look at the desperado and she became hysterical. Chapman quietly started up the stairs in the confusion. Miss Scott went with him, while Bishop remained with the hysterical nurse. Miss Scott told him he had better let her put him to bed. Then "The Man Who Would Not Stay Captured" caught sight of the open door. "I'd better not. I'd better not. Thank you though," the convict told Miss Scott. He braced his shoulders; summoned his remaining strength and dragged his wounded form out of the building, while the nurse stood watching him.
