For 30 years, the only meat I've eaten has been poultry." At 65, Depew says he had another bad day—so off went a cigar habit. At 88 he had another bad day. "This time," Depew writes "analysis showed that alcohol was the trouble. I had made a hail of drinking a pint of champagne day. But at 88 it interfered with health and efficiency. Reluctantly but dechively I cut out wine. Now I take a glass whe cold threatens, but apart from that I'm a total abstainer."

KILL FRISCO ATTEMPT TO LAND ROAD Ask $1,500,000 Included In Amendment to Breed Bill SACRAMENTO, April 14 — San Francisco's attempt to amend the Bred bill to include an allocation of $1,500,000 for the Finds Scarlet Fever Ser HELD FOR 32 CRIMES IN 6 YEARS KNOXVILLE, Tenn., April 14 — Police today reopen investigation of 32 crimes committed over a period of six years while William Sheffey, 32, was held without ball in the county jail at London on a technical charge of criminal assault. The crimes for which police believe he is guilty, include seven murders and a long list of shootings, homes entered and women inmates attacked. Sheffey was held on evidence gathered by Ed Jones, a private detective. Similarity of circumstances in the crimes led Jones to believe they were committed by Sheffey, he informed the police. One of the crimes Jones accuses Sheffey of committing is the attack upon Mrs. Clyde Poe last December. The husband was shot as he arose in bed. While he lay mortally wounded, the intruder attacked Mrs. Poe. Another case almost similar is the shooting of Luther Wells and the attack on his wife a year ago at Marysville. Evidence which police claim connects Sheffey with the crimes is a series of anonymous letters received by J. C. McCampbell, former sheriff of Blount County. The letters told the sheriff to tell "the women to scream so I can have an excuse to shoot and get some fun out of it." Neighbors of Sheffey told the police they saw him leave the house frequently at midnight and return at dawn. Detectives claim on these mild night excursions he wore a bullet proof vest under his coat. LAND ROAD Ask $1,500,000 Included In Amendment to Breed Bill SACRAMENTO, April 14 — San Francisco's attempt to amend the Bred bill to include an allocation of $1,500,000 for the bay shore highway failed in the senate today. Following the ballot on the amendment, introduced by Senator Victor Canepa of San Francisco, the senate recessed until 2:30 p.m., at which time debate on the breed gasoline tax increase of one cent will be resumed. Canepa declared the members of the San Francisco delegation were attempting, through the amendment, to obtain aid on the road which originally had been promised them for their support of the Breed bill. Opposition to the amendment was voiced not only by Breed, but by several other proponents of the tax increase. "Adopt the amendment and kill the gasoline tax increase," Senator Breed declared in his attack on the proposed change. An interesting angle developed when Senator M. B. Johnson of Burlingame spoke against the amendment. Johnson declared that altho his district would be greatly affected through construction of the road, he felt it was unfair to attach the provision on the gas tax measure. Prior to the introduction of the amendment Sen. Breed made the opening speech for the passage of his measure. "There is no question but what additional highway funds will be necessary" Senator Breed asserted. "And I feel that the increased gasoline tax is the most equitable and easiest to deal with." Attempt by opponents of the gasoline tax increase to obtain a postponement of the senate's consideration of the Breed bill until Thursday failed by an overwhelming viva voce vote.

With this staccato cry of theumps echoing across eight major league diamonds today, the dismal winter that has barred hundreds of thousands of enthusiasts from viewing their favorite pastime, formally came to a close and spring came into being.
