NO XMAS GIFTS, WOMAN KILLS 4 LOGANSPORT. Ind., Dec. 30.—A tale of torture and suffering, elimaxed Christmas Day when her baby girl received no present, was poured out in a police cell here to say by Emina Hopaugn, 23, held for yesterday's shotgun massacre at Bethlehem township, 10 miles north of here. "God knows all about it," the trail, emaciated woman repeated, explaining the murder of her father, Henry Bassler, 69; her mother, Catherine; her own daughter, Viola, 3, and her brother, John, 23. "God knows how mean they were to me and my baby. They would not buy me any clothes; they wouldn't buy Viola any clothes; they didn't feed us. They wouldn't buy my baby any Christmas toys. She had no Christmas. They forced me to toll in the fields and only yesterday, Johnny, the only brother I have in the world, knocked me down and dragged me out into the snow. "I won't say any more about it now." A sanity commission was appointed by Coroner Stanton to examine Mr. Hobaugh today. Neighbors testified the woman had been ill and they believed mentally unbalanced for years. "The Fast Worker" Comes To The United Direct from a very successful engagement at the Rialto theater in Los Angeles comes "The Fast Worker," to the United theater for All-Star Cast In "Breath of Scandal" "The Breath of Scandal," whose cast is composed entirely of stars, is the attraction that will be seen at the United theater tonight and Wednesday. This is a powerful photoplay of modern society life. The following are some of the ideas of Lou Tellegen, featured player, regarding Scandal: Only a vandal, a destroyer, will circulate scandal, therefore vandal is synonymous with scandal. It requires no more than just a breath of it to taint the lives of the living and the yet unborn. Why some people like to indulge in malevolent gossip is beyond the comprehension of most of us. Only those who are thus maligned can appreciate the great harm it does. Gossiping men and women may be innocent and well-intentioned in their practices, but a scandal-monger is a pervert and a manace to any decent community. Avoid the man who cannot keep scandal out of his conversation. He would as soon wreck your home as the next fellow's. Scandal is a blight in harmonious civilization. The Peace Award should have been made to the person thru whose lips scandal has never passed. It is seldom that a photoplay can boast of the cast being composed entirely of stars but such is the case in "The Breath of Scandal." The cast is composed of Lou Tellegen, Patsy Ruth Miller, Forest Stanley, Jack Mulhal, Myrtie Stedman, Phyllis Haver, Betty Blythe and Charles Clarey. And another way to find the hospital is to cross the street oblique.

AMP PUBLISHES FOOTBALL TEAMS NEW YORK, Dec. 30.—The all-American football team for 1924 acted by Walter Camp, published today in this week's issue of Iowa Weekly, lists no more than player from any college in country and jenoes members SARGUM PROUTINGS Six big boxing clubs are to start one ball rolling under the new boxing law. Those clubs have their permits from the new commission and all are planning grand openings. The six clubs that have obtained their permits are: Vernon Athletic Club, Jack Doyle, promoter; Hollywood American Legion; Oakland Athletic Club; Observatory Club, Dreamiand, San Francisco; Lyceum Club, L. A., and the Bakersfield Club. Hollywood stages the first show of the Southland clubs, with Pat Lester and Ralph Smith heading Jan. 2. Smith and Lester battled each other to a standstill for four rounds a few weeks ago. The Legion management has added two rounds, making six rounds for them to settle their differences. These two boys are the west's two best prospects in the heavyweight class. The show is bound to play to a sold-out house. Dick Donald, popular manager of the Lyceum club, will stage an opening show Jan. 3. The principals have not been named yet but will travel over the ten round route. Jack Doyle will not open the Vernon arena till Jan. 13. He has signed two of the most popular little men in the west to do the honors of his first show. Little Jimmy McLornin and Fidel La Barba try the ten round route. The two little fellows have met twice but were unable to establish any advantage over the short four round route. La Barba will be favored to win over the long route by most of the fans. He appears to be the more rugged and has the advantage in age. Jimmy is too young to travel the ten round route with such a rugged opponent as La Barba so the fans think. The little Irish lad FEW CHANGES IN FOOTBALL RULES BY TOM THORPE (I. N. S. Special Correspondent) NEW YORK, Dec. 30.—Few changes will be made in the gridiron code if the recommendations made at the third annual convention here of the American Coaches Assn.' of America carry any weight with the code makers. More than 200 coaches voted their confidence in the present code. In their opinion only four minor changes were needed. The changes proposed were: 1—A defensive offside violation shall be penalized five yards, but the down shall remain the same, unless the ground gained by penalty makes first down. 2—The kickoff shall be made from the kicking side's 40-yard line; also that a clay tee not more than four inches high be employed 'in making the kickoff. 3—That the head linesman be instructed to watch roughing the man who makes the kick in the case of a punt or a dropkick. 4—That a kick blocked behind the line of scrimmage go as a first down to the side recovering it; that in the case where a kick is partially blocked and the ball crosses the scrimmage line it be treated the same as it would in case the ball had not been touched by any one. The latter is in contrast to the present rule. The present rule reads that if the ball be blocked by a player not of the side making the kick it shall be considered a free ball and therefore can be recovered by the kickers' side. Under the recommendation the fact that a ball crosses a line of scrimmage eliminates the on-side play that was made by the player from the side not making the kick, putting the ball on-side by touching it. An attempt was made to include a recommendation that a fumbled球 belonged to the man recovering it, but if it touched the ground BMP PUBLISHES FOOTBALL TEAMS NEW YORK, Dec. 30.—The all-american football team for 1924 elected by Walter Camp, publish-today in this week's issue of Clippers Weekly, lists no more than player from any college in country, and ignores members the Big Three—Yale, Harvard Princeton, Harvard did not a place on either of the three selected teams, while Yale won men on the second teams, Princeton one.

HOBNSON OFFERED FINANCIAL HELP RENO, Nev., Dec. 30.—Walter Johnson, star pitcher for the world champion Washington Baseball club, admitted today that he had been approached by two Ann Arbor men to give him financial aid to the purchase of the Oakland club of the Coast league, but said there was nothing definite so far. Johnson said any announcement must come from the Ann Arbor man, and that he did not know whether they had yet discussed the matter of purchase of the Oakland club with Cal Ewing, its owner. Johnson said he could not even discuss details of the proposal at this time. Salt Lake business men, who are reported to have arranged to purchase the Salt Lake club of the coast league, also are after Johnson, the star twirl admitted today, but he explained that other men a request for a conference he had heard nothing. He is under the impression, he said, that these Salt Lake men are now conferring STIFF WORKOUT FOR GOLDEN BEARS BERKELEY, Dec. 30.—One more day of stiff practice was in sixth for the California Bears, as Andy Smith winds up his preparations for meeting the invasion of Univ. of Penn here New Year's day. One day of rest before the game will put the Bruins in tiptop shape, he believes. Meanwhile, Penn speeding westward for the game, is keeping in shape by workouts en route. The Pennsylvania squad braved zero temperatures at Omaha for a short workout. Two Pennsylvania regular ends will not start the game, accord- signed two of the most popular little men in the west to do the honors of his first big show. Little Jimmy McLornin and Fidel La Barba try the ten round route. The two little fellows have met twice but were unable to establish any advantage over the short four round route. La Barba will be favored to win over the long route by most of the fans. He appears to be the more rugged and has the advantage in age. Jimmy is too young to travel the ten round route with such a rugged opponent as La Barba so the fans think. The little Irish lad has been able to withstand the champion's most furious attack for four rounds and may fool fandom in the ten round go. Anyway the little men will be playing to a capacity house as there are thousands who will be on hand to see the two wonderful little men travel to a finish. Ten rounds will surely produce a winner as both can hit, and both travel at such a salt that one or the other will surely fall by the wavyside before the tent round is over. U. S. C. "showed" Missouri In so doing U. S. C., added another bit of evidence that the west is playing a much better brand of football than the eastern artists have given the west credit for. The Trojans in defeating Missouri did not play over their heads, in fact their play was not up to their usual form, but U. S. C. outclassed the easterners. California's Golden Bear will bowl over Penn. The Bear is capable of upsetting the east's best. Stanford will face the most difficult proposition in Notre Dame. The long journey westward and different climatic conditions will offset any advantage the easterners possess and the two teams will go on the field about equal. Lady Luck will play an important part in the victory of either team. There is no question as to the attendance as thousands are clamoring for tickets that they cannot obtain. Both teams seem to have their full strength and neither will have any alibis if they go down to defeat. DELAYS ACCUSING 'TIL OUT OF JAIL SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 30.—Because the man he says he recognized as one who killed his partner was jail barber and shaved him frequently. Bartholomew Bettil delayed accusing his estimate. Wm. I. Hollingsworth, of the slaving of Julius Benventue until he was released from jail today. "I recognized him six months ago as the man who killed my partner during a holdup." Bettil told police today "but I was afraid to say anything until I was released." Aventue was killed in a holdup last Jan. 13. Hollingsworth is serving a sentence as one of three auto bandits who held up Police Lieut. Mignola a year and a half ago. Mignola wounded two of the bandits in a gun battle. Bettil told police he was so certain of his identification he was willing to swear to a warrant for the new charge against Hollingsworth. The latter was arrested in Los Angeles for the Mignola case and escaped from a hospital, being later recaptured in Omaha. JOURNALISM DAY So Cal. Journalism Day will be held at the Univ. of So.

Under the recommendation the fact that a ball crosses a line of scrimmage eliminates the on-side play that was made by the player from the side not making the kick, putting the ball on-side by touching it. An attempt was made to include a recommendation that a fumbled ball belonged to the man recovering it,但 if it touched the ground before he recovered it, that no run was allowed. This was voted down without discussion,the feeling being that such a rule would rob the game of a very important play,many games having been won and lost during the last season by recovered fumbles. The recommendations were made by a committee headed by Hugo Bezekd, formerly big league baseball manager and present head coach at Pennsylvania State College.The four recommendations were finally put thru after Dr. Spears of West Virginia had written an amendment.The report of the committee was that blocked kicks recovered by the kicking side would not constitute a first down unless recovered beyond a point marked by the forward side-line stake. Robert Zuppke of Illinois was elected president for the coming year.

The Pennsylvania squad braved zero temperatures at Omaha for a short workout. Two Pennsylvania regular ends will not start the game, according to the lineup received here today, and Rau and Huber will hardly get into the fracas for California. Otherwise both elevens will present their strongest lines-ups. Carlson, Dickson, Imilaw and Griffin will make up the California backfield, with Griffin at fullback. California will be considerably outweighed, statistics given here today indicated. The Penn line averages 189 against 185 for the Calif., and Penn backfield 175½ against 167 for the western eleven. BEARS CONCLUDE PRACTICE TODAY BERKELEY, Dec. 30—As Univ. of Calif. wound up its preparations for meeting the eastern invaders here New Year's day, Univ. of Penn was scheduled to arrive this afternoon. The Pennsylvania squad was to get into action promptly on its arrival, arrangements having been made to hold a practice session this afternoon. California will rest tomorrow but Penn will take a final workout. A heavy rain last night softened the turf and today the temperature was rising. There was a prospect that the rainy weather might continue until Thursday, although representatives of both elevens expressed themselves as being hopeful for a dry, fast field.

SEEK ASSISTANCE MANILA, Dec. 30—Chinese residents at Aparri today telegramged for assistance, saying booting was feared. A detachment of constabulary was ordered on guard. Looting of Chinese merchants has resulted in several sections as a result of aviation by a Filipino secret society. starring Gloria Swanson, plays at the California Theatre Wednesday and New Years Day. The story, by Percival Wren, adapted to the screen, by Forrest Halsey, is a heart-appealing love tale of the French Foreign Legion with Ben Lyon (courtesy of First National Pictures) in the leading man's role opposite the star, and Norman Trevor, Ivan Linow, Joe Moore and others in the big supporting cast. Miss Swanson has the role of Carmelita who becomes the daughter of the Legion, that famous international regiment, composed of "men without a country," which is renowned for two things, its courage and its discipline. Carmelita is snatched from death by Luigi, strong man with a small traveling circus and is trained to become a member of the troupe, Luigi, in a fit of jealousy over the girl, kills his young violinist and flees to Northern Africa and enlists in the Foreign Legion to escape justice. Carmelita, loyal to him, opens a small cafe in the village, Luigi, in the meantime, begins to pay considerable attention to another woman. The entire Legion sees that he is not true to Carmelita. The girl meets and falls in love with a young American recruit. This incurs the wrath of the regimental bully, Luigi, and he frames Marvin (Ben Lyon). Carmelita, however, bribes the guard and frees the boy. Luigi hoars or true and is about to "fend to the little pup his own way" when John Boule, veteran of the Legion and Marvin's guardian, interferes. He helps the young couple to escape into the desert where he, himself, is shot down by Arabs while Carmelita and Marvin reach port, board a boat for America—and happiness. There's more fast-moving action in "Wages of Virture" than in all the previous Swanson pictures combined, more novelty, more appeal—a bigger, better picture from any angle you look at it—and to say a picture is better than "Manhandled." "Her Love Story," etc. is saying something. Busy Buddies., a Christie Comedy, and The International News complete the program. Geo.E. Turner, concert organist will play special selections on the Wuritzer. Tonight is the last time you will be taken, thoro tests of fruit, no orange or lemon be shipped by the California Press Exchange nor, presumably, by the independents, who also are members of the California Citrus League Manager G.

U.P.WILL COMBAT CAMPAIGN OF LIES To combat the campaign of lies and exaggeration or depreciation, being carried on in propaganda of Eastern newspapers, the Union Pacific is distributing 50,000 copies of a handsomely illustrated booklet entitled "California" and will publish and distribute 50,000 copies of a similar booklet devoted to So. Calif. alone. Some of the colored photos show Yosemite Falls, Santa Barbara Mission, etc., at their height of beauty of aspect and color. A few scenes, notably several of Utah which is just beginning to be thoroughly appreciated scenically and the Grand Canyon of the Colorado also are shown as part of a trip over the compared lines. The booklet, however, is different from the ordinary railway concern's advertising matter; the railway subordinating itself. The descriptive matter is of unusual high quality.
