KID McCOY ON TRIAL FOR LIFE
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 8.-Another dramatic chapter was scheduled to start here today in the colorful life of Norma Selby, puglist and actor, professionally known as Kid McCoy.
McCoy was to go on trial this morning for the murder of his sweetheart, Mrs. Theresa Mors, lovely auburn haired divorcee of a week, found dead in a Los Angeles apartment last Aug. 13, with a bullet in her head and McCoys photograph clutched in her hands.
The puglist, arrested as he ran in the street with a smoking gun after he shot three persons in Mrs. Mors antique shop, told police Mrs. Mors killed herself in his presence.
"She was the apple of my eye: I loved her and intended to take her as my ninth wife," was one story told by McCoy and intensive grilling failed to reveal any new angles to his original version of his sweetheart's death.
Altho McCoy's attorney indicated they would ask for a continuance of the trial because of inability to locate witnesses said to be important for the defense. Dist. Atty. Asa Keyes declared he would insist that McCoy go to trial today.
"We are ready to go to trial with a perfect murder case against McCoys," said Keyes. "There is no reason for delay at this time, and we will oppose any effort whatsoever to secure continuance of the case."
The state's contention in the case will be as follows:
McCoy, the prosecution will attempt to show, slew Mrs. Mors in the apartment they occupied under the name of Shields in the Nottingham-apt, because he feared that he was about to lose her affections and because under the terms of Mrs. Mors' separation agreement with her husband, McCoy could enjoy none of her wealth if he married her.
In support of the murder theory, several witnesses, resident in the LOS ANGELES, Dec. 8.-Kid McCoy, born Norman Sooby, is facing the greatest battle in his matrimonial and prize ring career, a battle which may mean his death in the electric chair or the charge of murder.
The "Kid", former weltweight boxing champion of the world now a movie actor, went trial today on the charge of slaying Mrs. Theresa Mors with whom he lived. Mrs. Mors divorced wife of a millionaire New York manufacturer, was have been his tenth wife it said.
Eleven times has Norman Sooby faced the marriage altar three times with the same woman. Eleven times he has been divorced.
He was married first to Lo tie Piehler, back in 1894. The were divorced in 1895. Two years later he married Mrs. Jul Woodruff, from whom he was destined to be divorced three times. In this same year he found himself free, so marched to the altar with Charlotte Smith. A few months later he was again minus a wife.
In 1904 he was wed to I dianola Arnold, and in the same year she obtained a decree. Year after he married Mrs. Telle Earle Ellis, and they were husband and wife for a record-time-for the "Kid". It was not until 1910 that they were divorced. Twelve months later found him the second husband of Mrs. Edna Valentine Herd. The same year a divorce was granted.
McCoy managed to remain o f the bonds of matrimony from 1911 to 1920. In that year contracted wedlock with Dagma Dahlgren. They were divorced in 1921.
His ninth wife, and late Jacqueline McDowell of Baltimore mors, he married in 1922. With in a month they were separate because it was said, of a Detroit woman known merely as "Re head." whom McCoy said he tended to marry. He didn't.

A Class Ad is best little salesman.
The state's contention in the case will be as follows:
McCoy, the prosecution will attempt to show, slew Mrs. Mors in the apartment they occupied under the name of Shields in the Nottingham-apt, because he feared that he was about to lose her affections and because under the terms of Mrs. Mors' separation agreement with her husband, McCoy could enjoy none of her wealth if he married her.
In support of the murder theory, several witnesses, resident in the Nottingham-apt, are to be called upon to testify that they heard a woman's frightened scream on the nightof the killing, and later heard sounds described as those apt to be made by a man running down the hall and stairs.
Mrs. Mors' jewels, mild to be worth $50,000, are to be introduced as evidence against McCoy, together with the testimony of the accused man's sister that McCoy placed them in her possession subsequent to the alleged murder and that he told her, in effect, that he feared he had killed Mrs. Mors.
McCoy's alleged statement at the time of his asserted holdup of the Mors' antique shop, the day after the killing, that he was "bound for the electric chair," and proposed to take with him all who had anything to do with the Mors' affairs, is scheduled to be repeated by those who were subjected to McCoy's alleged banditry on that occasion, it was said.
While it was admitted by defense attorneys that depositions had been taken in relation to a possible insanity defense, it was denied that a contention of lack of mental balance would be relied upon to defeat the prosecution's barrage.
"If we can bring out all of the facts, McCoy will go free and be completely vindicated," said Atty. George Schreve. "There is not a circumstance or a single happening in connection with this case which can't be logically explained to the satisfaction of any fair-minded jury no matter how damaging the facts appear to be on their face."
McCOY TURNS POET
LOS ANGELES, Dec. $—While Kid McCoy, freshly shaven and a jail breakfast inside him, waited today in the Los Angeles county jail to be summoned for his murder trial he turned poet.
His ninth wife, and later Jacqueline McDowell of Dalmore, he married in 1922. With in a month they were separated because, it was said, of a Detritous woman known merely as "Rehead," whom McCoy said he tended to marry. He didn't.

"MY SWEETHEARTS"
A Poem by Kid McCoy
"My sweetheart and mother he gone on ahead.
Left all alone in this house stone.
Makes me oft wish I was done.
"The wonderful love of a mot departed.
Follows me still, and ever w Though at times I feel broken hearted.
"My Tressa, too, whom I lo so well.
In memory I see, while in mis She stretches arms that I know so well.
"She beckons me come to other shore
Leave all behind, like my kind,
And oin jh reforevermore.
And oin jh jher forevermore.
"Tis sad but true my lo have fled.
Right straight through the golden gate.
They'll wait for me until dead.
But all is over, my sweethear have gone.
Their charms were many, and loved every one.
To my journey's end.
I long to wend.
And we there can be as one.
REPORT PUPILS
IN BOOZE PARTY
Details of a "booze" party at which three tocar high school girls and three local high school boys participated, which ended in an attempted criminal assault upon a 17-year-old Orange girl by two local high school boys and another local boy, are in the hands of Anaheim police, and today were presented to S. A. Clayes, principal of the Anaheim Union High school. Police are said to "have the goods" on the persons involved, and demand a thorough investigation, which Mr. Clayes agreed to make.

One of the boys, not a high school student, is 22 years old. One of the girls was from Orange, lacking a few days of being 17. This is the girl that gave the police a large part of their information.
The informant said that she met the others of the party at Seal Beach, and that they told her if she would come with them they would come by Orange and let her off on the way home instead they came back to Anaheim, let the other girls off and one of the boys, leaving three boys in the car to take her home. The car turned into an Orange orchard between Anaheim and Orange and the three attacked her. A fierce struggle ensued, and she finally escaped by pulling out of her coat and hat and running. She hailed a passing tourist, who brot her into Anaheim police station, where, with disheveled hair, she told police what had taken place.

GAIN IN GERMAN MIDDLE PARTIES
BERLIN, Dec. 8. — The Constitutionalists have defeated the Nationalists by the narrowest of margins.
Radicals in both wings suffered a complete collapse, the Hitlerites and the Communists losing 40 to 50 per cent of their strength in the last reichstag.
The Social Democrats become the strongest party.
These three facts stood out today from the latest returns from the double elections Sunday. Because of the voting for both the reichstag and the Prussian diet, the returns were received slowly.
The results as indicated thus far were:
Social Democrats, 126 German Nationals, 127; German Peoples, 49; Centrists, 66; Democrats, 30; Bavarian Peoples, 19; Hitlerites, 13; Communists, 44; others, 20.
Despite the collapse of radical elements, there was every indication today that there will be essential change in the dominant political constellations because the German nationals and the German peoples parties also were winning seats at the expense of the Hitlerites while the Social Democrats were strengthened by desertions from the Communists.
The Catholic Centrist party as always held its own.
Chancellor Marx' newspaper, Germania, Characterizes the results as "neither a swing to the left or a swing to the right but a strengthening of the middle parties."
It seems most likely that the former Marx cabinet will be returned to power.
All parties brought all possible reserve strength to the polls, averaging 55 per cent of their total voting strength, as compared with 70 in the May elections.
The re-elected members include Admiral Tirpitz, Von Ludendorf, Prince Bismarck, Count Westarp, Count Bernstorff, former Chancellor BREA NEWS

POLICE SEEKING DR. STANLEY MASON
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 8. — Pasadena and Los Angeles police today began an intensive search for Dr. Stanley H. Mason, wanted for questioning his knowledge of Joseph Charles Ganchu, whose arrest in Pasadena revealed what members of the state board of medical examiners characterized as the most amazing case of fictitious medical practice in their experience.
Arrested originally on a charge of beating his minor daughter, Ganchu became the subject of a searching investigation when a photographic file, containing pictures of nearly 200 women, snapped as the patient reclined on his operating tables, was found in his quarters. Later he was charged with failing to report the birth of two babies he is accused of having delivered, and of practicing medicine without a license.
Other unusual equipment in the "physician's" office led to a separate investigation by Special Agent Carter, of the state medical board, who is said to have disclosed that Ganchu was also preparing to operate a "diploma" mill on a wholesale scale.
